Under Ao Lie's astonished gaze, Lu Sou's flesh shell was cut in half like a layer of rotting flesh. However, a ball of milky white light floated out from the dead shell. The light then changed and grew in the Void. After a few breaths, it turned into another Lu Sou. This Lu Sou had the same white hair and beard, and his appearance was no different from the previous Lu Sou. However, his aura had changed drastically. Although the source of his aura was similar, it was much thicker. In particular, there were streams of flowing light around his body, and there were masses of chaotic aura sweeping and dissipating. It was the epitome of an immortal!
"How do you feel?"
Fang Xing asked anxiously as he looked at Lu Sou from head to toe.
Lu Sou smiled and closed his eyes slowly. After pondering for a while, he opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "In the past, I walked on a single-plank bridge. Every step I took led to destruction, and every step I took was a ladder to heaven. But now, I've set foot on the Great Dao. I don't have to tread on thin ice, and I don't have to endure it …"
"Tell me more clearly …"
Fang Xing was so anxious that he pressed further.
Lu Sou laughed and put his palms together again. He said in a low voice, "Two thousand years ago, I've already passed eight Thunder Tribulations. However, I didn't dare to pass the last one. I could only cultivate in seclusion and cut off all karma and opportunities, leaving the impression that I was dead. The reason was that I knew that the ninth Thunder Tribulation was a Life-and-Death Tribulation that I couldn't pass. Although my state of mind was not strong enough, and my foundation was far from enough, I hid for two thousand years. But now … I can calmly face the ninth Thunder Tribulation!"
"The ninth Thunder Tribulation?"
Fang Xing and Ao Lie were shocked when they heard this. It was hard to tell whether they were surprised or happy.
The Nine Tribulations were undoubtedly the biggest threshold on the path of cultivation before becoming an Immortal. Every cultivator had different reactions when facing the Nine Tribulations. For example, Ao Lie had fallen into a deep sleep in the Thunderous Pool of Creation and reached the Half-Step Immortal Realm without passing a single Tribulation. In other words, he had been undergoing Tribulations ever since he fell into a deep sleep in the Thunderous Pool of Creation. In other words, Fang Xing's foundation was too strong and his momentum of cultivation was too strong. Therefore, he had passed three Tribulations in a row. However, because his state of mind was not strong enough, it was difficult for him to pass the later ones …
Lu Sou, on the other hand, was different. When he was young, his cultivation was strong, and his momentum was like the sun in the sky. The first eight Tribulations were like a hot knife through butter, but when he faced the ninth Tribulation, he suddenly realized that he did not have enough resources to survive the ninth Tribulation. When the ninth Tribulation came, he would disappear. Therefore, he had to cultivate in seclusion and cut off his karma to avoid the ninth Tribulation!
It could be said that to a certain extent, the ninth Tribulation was a life and death demon for him, and he was far more terrifying than others.
But now, he had refined the Serene Soil. Putting aside everything else, he had the confidence to pass the ninth calamity.
How could the profound meaning in such a simple sentence be ordinary?
It was basically giving him unlimited possibilities …
In the past, he had walked on a single-plank bridge, and he had reached the end of it. But now, there was a path leading to heaven under his feet!
"What about strength?"
Fang Xing frowned and quickly asked the question that he was most concerned about.
"In terms of strength …"
Lu Sou frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about what to say. After a while, he said, "In the past, because I only focused on cultivating formations, I never had an advantage when fighting with others, unless I set up a formation in advance and waited for others to fall into the trap … Take Mister Lan for example. He and I both have eight Tribulations, but Mister Lan is a Battle Cultivator. If we were to fight, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to last more than ten moves. But now that I'm in the same realm as him, even if my Divine Sense, martial arts, and ferocity are not as good as his, when it comes to fighting, haha … it shouldn't be difficult for me to defeat him …"
"Great!"
When Fang Xing heard this, he was finally overjoyed, unable to contain his joy.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother …"
After a moment of emotion, even he had to focus, cupped his fists, and congratulated Lu Sou.
"Haha, thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother …"
When Lu Sou heard that, he was slightly stunned, and then he returned the greeting. He was in a good mood, and he called Senior Brother sincerely.
"Alright, alright, it's really uncomfortable to speak in such a serious manner. San Er, come over quickly, it's your turn!"
After bowing, Fang Xing waved his hand, as if he was not used to speaking in such a manner. He then waved at Ao Lie.
"Can you not call me San Er?"
Ao Lie walked over. He looked a little unhappy, but his expression was excited.
"You're the one who said not to call me brother-in-law …"
Fang Xing rolled his eyes and scolded, "Hurry up, don't waste time!"
"I always feel that it's unbearably vulgar …"
Ao Lie murmured, but he did not dare to be negligent, so he came over and listened carefully. Lu Sou did not hide anything, and taught Ao Lie everything he knew when he was refining the Serene Soil. There was no need for Ao Lie to acknowledge him as his master. After all, in Fang Xing's opinion, Ao Lie was his brother-in-law, and they were family. Although Ao Lie was arrogant and unruly, he knew what was good for him. Knowing that this was a serious matter, he memorized everything, and then followed the etiquette, thanked Lu Sou, and slowly walked to the entrance of the temple.
Because he wanted to cultivate the Great Dao of the Human Tribe, he had already transformed into a human and was sitting at the entrance of the temple.
"Cultivate boldly, I'll watch over you!"
Seeing that Ao Lie was still a little hesitant, Fang Xing looked solemn and sent a divine thought to him.
Ao Lie was indeed a little solemn. After all, he was different from Lu Sou. Lu Sou had succeeded, but Ao Lie might not succeed. Moreover, refining the Serene Soil meant that one could either reach the Great Dao of Heaven in one step, or destroy one's physical body in another. It was impossible for him not to be nervous. However, when he heard what Fang Xing said, he felt a lot more at ease, and the corners of his mouth curled up …
He looked at Fang Xing calmly, but his face was still expressionless. He raised his hands and slowly activated his Dharma power!
"Brilliant Dragon Power, Bright Great Dao …"
Following that, a low chant that sounded like a human's voice, but also like a dragon's voice rang out leisurely. Lightning suddenly shone brightly around Ao Lie...
Traces of lightning that looked like flowing water appeared around his body. They gradually brightened and condensed into a shape. In the end, it seemed to have turned into a sea of lightning that spread far and wide, directly extending more than a hundred feet away from the Dragon Bone Temple. In this sea of lightning, countless meteorite fragments were attracted over. The Serene Soil hidden in the meteorite fragments seemed to be attracted by a strong magnetic force. Like black waves, they were attracted by Ao Lie …
"As expected of the True Dragon, to be able to attract so much Serene Soil at once …"
When Lu Sou saw this, he was dumbfounded and could not calm down for a long time.
When he refined the Serene Soil, he had only refined about a dozen meteorite fragments before reaching a balance. However, Ao Lie had only just started, but he had already attracted dozens of meteorite fragments. The amount of Serene Soil in them was more than three times that of his …
Moreover, unlike Lu Sou, who directly refined the Serene Soil with the True Samadhi Fire, Ao Lie refined the Serene Soil with his lightning power. He had slept in the Creation Lightning Pool for far too long. Unlike other cultivators, he did not cultivate the True Samadhi Fire. Instead, he used his lightning power as his foundation. At this moment, he was using his lightning power and Serene Soil to cultivate a brand new Great Dao of Balance. In the eyes of Fang Xing and Lu Sou, they watched as the dazzling lightning around Ao Lie slowly dimmed and became gentle. Its aura also changed drastically …
"That lightning, why does it look like …"
Lu Sou was the first to notice it. His voice was low and his face was full of surprise.
"Tribulation Lightning!"
Fang Xing was calmer than Lu Sou and said in a deep voice.
"He actually cultivated his own foundation into Tribulation Lightning. This dragon brat … Is this Third Prince trying to defy the heavens?"
Lu Sou could not hold back his excitement. His beard trembled as he said with a trembling voice.
"I've seen someone who could freely use the Tribulation Lightning to defend against enemies. However, she refined it into a Dharma treasure …"
Fang Xing said in a low voice, "And it looks like San Er's Tribulation Lightning is even more terrifying than hers …"
Looking at Ao Lie, he thought of the Divine Lord. The Divine Lord's Dharma power was unfathomable, and the Dharma treasures he refined were even more powerful. The most famous one was undoubtedly his Immortal Cloud of Tribulation. It was a top-grade Dharma treasure that could produce Tribulation Lightning. It was an insult to call it an Immortal Artifact. It should be called a top-grade Heavenly Artifact that was as famous as a Small World. However, it was still a Dharma treasure. Ao Lie's body was filled with the aura of Tribulation Lightning when he cultivated the Serene Soil. It was terrifying …
Could it be that when his brother-in-law cultivated to the end, he would become a freak whose body was comparable to the Immortal Cloud of Tribulation?
Fang Xing couldn't help but shiver at the thought of the appearance of that giant dragon that could destroy everything …
The Thunderous Pool of Fortune was a first-class creation in the world, and the Serene Land was also a first-class creation in the world. Ao Lie could be said to be the only one in Tian Yuan who could obtain both of them at the same time. Perhaps even the Ancestral Patriarchs of the Dragon Tribe did not have such good fortune. Correspondingly, his cultivation prospects were probably not comparable to those Ancestral Patriarchs of the Dragon Tribe. Now, even Fang Xing himself could not estimate how strong his brother-in-law would become in the future. He could only say that … he was very, very strong!
"If this brother-in-law rebels in the future, I'm afraid no one can stop him …"
Fang Xing also murmured, "It seems that I have to pay close attention to his education. I have to teach him well so that he won't learn bad things in the future!"
