Long Yu's strongest defense was undoubtedly the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, and the Nine Underworld Heavenly Screen that he could create five times was his greatest guarantee against the black Heavenly Tribulation.
Apart from the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, Long Yu had no other way to resist the black Heavenly Tribulation that was comparable to an Emperor-path expert's attack.
Therefore, he couldn't just sit around and wait for death. He had to take the initiative to attack.
"My strongest attack is the Nether Dragon Blade, and it's already resonated with it … Looks like I can only try controlling the Nether Dragon Blade to break through the black Tribulation cloud from afar!"
Long Yu thought to himself as he activated the Nether Dragon Blade and headed outside the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower through the power of the Spatial Divine Runes.
The black Heavenly Tribulation's target was Long Yu, so Long Yu definitely couldn't leave the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. Once he did, he would only end up being blasted to smithereens by the black Heavenly Tribulation.
Therefore, he could only rely on controlling the Nether Dragon Blade remotely to blast the black Tribulation cloud.
As the Battle Weapon had left his body, the Nether Dragon Blade definitely couldn't unleash its full power. However, even if it was only half of its usual power, Long Yu had no choice but to try using this method.
The next moment, the second black Heavenly Tribulation descended and landed on the top of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
Long Yu's second Nine Underworld Heavenly Screen happened to be formed and completely blocked the attack of the black Heavenly Tribulation. The entire Ancient Dragon Bone Tower wasn't damaged at all!
At the same time, Long Yu activated the Nether Dragon Blade that had left the tower and avoided the black Heavenly Tribulation. He quickly flew towards the black Tribulation cloud in the sky.
"Break!"
Long Yu bellowed. He focused all his energy on the Underworld Void Dragon Blade, causing it to pierce towards the black tribulation cloud.
In the next moment, the Nether Void Dragon Blade pierced into the black tribulation cloud and destroyed a portion of it. However, it quickly encountered a black lightning barrier. This black lightning barrier was the main protective barrier of the black tribulation cloud.
As long as the black lightning barrier was destroyed, the entire black Tribulation cloud would dissipate.
"It's actually … unbreakable?"
In the next moment, Long Yu felt that the Nether Void Dragon Blade seemed to have encountered an unbreakable resistance. It was actually blocked by that black lightning barrier.
This was the first time that Long Yu had encountered a situation where his Nether Dragon Blade had been blocked. From this, it could be seen how difficult this black heavenly tribulation was.
"I'm afraid there aren't many people in the entire Asura County who have encountered such a black heavenly tribulation like me …"
Long Yu thought to himself. At this moment, he did not panic. Instead, he condensed a Nine Underworld Sky Screen to block the next strike of the black lightning.
Then, he closed his eyes and began to communicate with the Nether Void Dragon Dagger.
Previously, he had resonated with the Netherworld Dragon Blade, and the two of them already had a very deep connection. Now that Long Yu was fully focused on it, he could feel the rhythm of the Netherworld Dragon Blade even more clearly.
The entire Netherworld Dragon Blade was wrapped in a thick layer of Nine Underworld Qi. In an attempt to break through the black lightning barrier, the soul seals in the slots within the Nether Void Dragon Blade began to stir.
These five soul imprints were all absorbed by Long Yu from other Martial Cultivators in the dream world. Each soul imprint could increase the power of the Nether Void Dragon Blade by a certain amount.
But now, these soul imprints were all shaking, as if they wanted to break free from the grooves in the Nether Void Dragon Blade and emerge from the blade.
"No, it's not trying to escape, but …"
When Long Yu sensed the Nether Void Dragon Blade's phenomenon, he was naturally delighted. He did not use his thoughts to suppress it. Instead, he released it and directly activated the Nether Void Dragon Blade to release the five soul imprints!
In the next instant, Long Yu felt that his compatibility with the Netherworld Dragon Blade had deepened to another level. After which, the five Soul Seals that were released actually blasted towards the black lightning barrier. When they came into contact with the layer of lightning, they directly exploded.
The power of the explosion of each soul seal was related to the strength of the martial cultivator it came from. The stronger the soul seal, the stronger the explosion.
At this critical moment, Long Yu chose to explode all five soul seals. The soul seals of Tian Xinghe, Bai Qing, Yu Guisha, Li Paoze, and Mo Zhaitian all exploded at this moment. The destructive power of the explosion completely bombarded the black lightning barrier.
The explosion of Yu Guisha and Li Paoze's soul seals was the weakest, but it still managed to loosen the black lightning barrier a little.
Then, Bai Qing and Tian Xinghe's soul imprints exploded, directly destroying the black lightning barrier. Finally, Mo Zhaitian's soul imprint exploded, the strongest soul imprint burst out, instantly engulfing the entire black tribulation cloud.
Boom!
A pitch-black bolt of lightning struck the top of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower once again. However, it was blocked by the fourth Nine Underworld Screen that Long Yu had formed in advance.
In the next moment, the entire black tribulation cloud began to dissipate. After Long Yu controlled the Nether Void Dragon Blade to explode five soul seals, the entire sky was shrouded by a thick black airflow, as if the sky was filled with dark clouds and a heavy downpour was about to fall.
"Did it work?"
Long Yu's heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, he felt a change in his Dantian.
A powerful force suddenly gushed out from the black tribulation cloud. It passed through the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower and flowed into his Dantian.
"What kind of force is this?"
Long Yu's complexion slightly changed. Immediately after, he felt seven small dots condense in his Dantian. These seven dots started out as black dots, but gradually grew bigger and bigger. Very quickly, they turned into seven seeds that revolved around the center of his Dantian and began to slowly revolve.
"Are these the seeds of powers?"
Long Yu frowned slightly. He could feel the power contained in the seven seeds in his Dantian, and he could not help but feel happy. It seemed that he had succeeded in passing through the third Heavenly Tribulation.
However, after a moment of joy, Long Yu fell into another level of doubt.
Could the third Heavenly Tribulation of the Heavenly Tribulation realm be natural? Or could it be that these Heavenly Tribulations were purely man-made?
"On Heavenly Mandate Island, most Martial Cultivators' cultivation stagnated after reaching the Heavenly Tribulation realm. It was not because they could not absorb enough Spiritual Qi of the world, but because the Heavenly Tribulation did not descend … Even those who were extremely talented would find it extremely difficult to attract the third Heavenly Tribulation on Heavenly Mandate Island. Could it be that the Thousand Layers of Heavenly Spirits stopped the Heavenly Tribulation from descending?"
Long Yu became more and more doubtful as he thought about it.
Even if the Heavenly Tribulation was a naturally formed force, why would a strange force appear from the tribulation cloud after the third Heavenly Tribulation was resisted or defeated? Why would it enter the Martial Cultivator's Dantian and form the seeds of powers?
Could it be that someone was manipulating everything behind the scenes?
Almost no martial cultivators of Shen Wu world would think of such a question. Because they were born here and grew up here, they have always had this kind of cultivation system, so they wouldn't doubt it.
But Long Yu was different. His soul wasn't of this world to begin with. Now that he encountered something like this, it was natural for him to have such questions.
However, the answer to this question wasn't something he could find right now.
"Everything, even if I reach the Secret Realm of the Imperial Path, I might not be able to find the answer. I have to at least break through the Secret Realm of the Imperial Path and step into a higher realm of martial arts … and Shen Wu world is definitely not the end of this world!"
Long Yu's eyes glowed. In his mind, the beautiful girl from before, Consort Yu's face, as well as what Shu Chan told him about Beyond Heaven.
Beyond Heaven, outside of Shen Wu world, what kind of world is there?
"No matter what, as long as I work hard to become stronger, one day I'll be able to solve this riddle"
Long Yu shook his head. He's already used to these seemingly endless questions. Since he can't figure them out right now, and he can't find the answer, he'll just keep going!
After all, there's only one path in martial arts, no matter how hard he tries, there won't be any problems, as long as he keeps going, he'll eventually find the answer.
A few moments later, Long Yu threw all these questions to the back of his mind and began to study the Thaumaturgy seeds in his Dantian.
These 7 Thaumaturgy seeds were all black, seemingly different from what Shu Chan said. Long Yu remembered what Shu Chan said before, that the lowest quality Thaumaturgy seeds are Blue, then Purple, then Gold.
The higher the quality of the Thaumaturgy seed, after comprehending an Innate Thaumaturgy, it'll evolve to a higher level, a higher starting point.
"My black Thaumaturgy seed, it should be stronger than the Gold one, right?"
Long Yu thought, but he wasn't sure about this.
Seeing the black tribulation clouds in the sky dissipate, Long Yu put away the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. He condensed the concealment divine characters and used the peak Primordial Shadow Kill technique to silently land in the courtyard where Shu Chan was in.
"Long Yu, how was it, did you succeed?"
Shu Chan almost immediately jumped up to greet him. Her pretty face revealed an expression of extreme concern and anticipation.
"Mm, I destroyed the black Tribulation clouds and condensed a black Thaumaturgy seed. Princess, is there something special about this black Thaumaturgy seed?"
Long Yu nodded his head and asked directly.
"It really is a black Death Thaumaturgy seed"
This time, even Asura Princess Shu Chan was a little envious of Long Yu. "This is the strongest Thaumaturgy seed. Only by withstanding the Death Thaumaturgy's Tribulation can one successfully condense it. When you comprehend a Innate Thaumaturgy, it'll be at least a Third Heaven level Connate Thaumaturgy, and its power will be at least ten times stronger than a First Heaven Connate Thaumaturgy.
"Although the level of Connate Thaumaturgy can be improved through cultivation, the black Death Thaumaturgy seed is much stronger than ordinary martial cultivators from the start. Our Tianqin Dynasty's emperor is rumored to have condensed the Death Thaumaturgy seed, and he's been famous in the nearby empires for a long time. "
"I see."
Hearing this, Long Yu nodded his head.
