Lu Xiaotian's abode was on a small mountain. The spiritual energy was average. Even with his poor aptitude, he could feel that the speed at which he absorbed spiritual energy was much faster than before. For a cultivator going through the tribulation, this could increase the speed at which they recovered their spiritual power. Under the conditions of abundant spiritual energy, the speed at which their injuries healed was also much faster. Also, when human cultivators condensed their Jin Dan, some of the stronger ones would often absorb some spiritual energy from their surroundings.
Lanming City was indeed suitable for going through the tribulation. It was the best place to cultivate. No wonder so many people wanted to come to Lanming City.
The small mountain that Lu Xiaotian was on was only a few thousand feet tall. From the mountainside to the top of the mountain, there were a few abodes that had already been opened. In Lanming City, one could not privately open abodes, so they were all ready-made. Lu Xiaotian's abode had some fluctuations of the thunder element aura. Clearly, someone had already gone through the tribulation before him. It was just that he did not know if they had succeeded or failed.
Lu Xiaotian had only stayed for a day or two when cultivators from the mountainside and the foot of the mountain rushed over to visit. On the mountainside was a plump woman who looked rather manly. She called herself Zhou Xiaocui. At the foot of the mountain was a middle-aged man who reeked of alcohol and had a wine gourd hanging from his waist. His name was Mo Wen Tian.
Both of them had already reached the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. There was not much room for improvement in their abilities. The day of the tribulation was not far away, so they did not need to spend too much time on cultivation. Instead, it was more important for them to exchange their experiences, hear some rumors about the tribulation, or find ways to resist the lightning tribulation.
Lu Xiaotian did not reject their visits. From the two of them, Lu Xiaotian also learned about the situation of cultivators going through the tribulation in the nearby spiritual mountains and spiritual valleys. There was the joy of proving their Jin Dan, as well as the melancholy and regret of dying in the lightning tribulation.
"There are three waves of lightning tribulation, each stronger than the last. Ordinary cultivators can barely make it through the first two waves. Even in a place like Lanming City with excellent spiritual energy, those who can prove their Jin Dan are only two or three out of ten. Right now, we can still drink and chat merrily. I don't know if we will have the chance to meet again someday. "
The Heaven Gourd never left Mo Wen's hand. After drinking a few mouthfuls of wine, he liked to talk drunkenly. However, what he said was very reasonable. After all, there were very few loose Foundation Establishment cultivators who could safely survive their adventures and reach the ninth layer of Foundation Establishment, and there were even fewer ninth layer Foundation Establishment cultivators who could successfully cross the threshold of Jin Dan. Even in a place like Blue Nether City, where spiritual Qi was dense, the chances were not very high.
Hopefully, he would be able to endure the Jin Dan Lightning Tribulation. Lu Xiaotian had always had a resolute temperament. After comprehending the Five Elements Formation Jin Dan, he had the opportunity to form his Gold Core. However, at this moment, he didn't have much confidence. After all, the danger of dissolving five Jin Dans at the same time wasn't worth mentioning to outsiders.
Mo Wentian and Zhou Xiaocui left one after another. Lu Xiaotian set up an array formation around the cave and continued to cultivate his Five Elements Array Formation. Five high-grade spirit stones melted on his palm, turning into five mottled spiritual energies that intertwined with each other. Sometimes they became bundles, and sometimes they became balls.
After the spiritual energies of the five high-grade spirit stones transformed with each other, they could be maintained for several days without dissipating. Lu Xiaotian added another five high-grade spirit stones, and the ball of spiritual energy in front of him grew bigger again.
This process repeated. One day, Lu Xiaotian felt one of his spiritual beast pouches move. At first, he thought it was the mischievous Little Fire Crow. After all, there were high-level cultivators all around, and Lu Xiaotian didn't let Little Fire Crow run around. To prevent it from being casually destroyed by any cultivator, Little Fire Crow had to consume many high-grade Beast Spiritual Pills every once in a while to avoid running around. Lu Xiaotian could only accept it with a bitter smile.
However, this time, it wasn't Little Fire Crow that was causing trouble. It was actually the spiritual beast pouch of the Realm Breaking Insect.
With a thought, Lu Xiaotian used a secondary Primordial Spirit to open the storage pouch. As for the ball of spiritual energy, it was still in operation. With his current five Primordial Spirits, operating the ball of spiritual energy while doing other things was not a problem.
"Chirp!" A black, chubby bug that looked like a silkworm opened its small mouth like it was yawning, revealing its small sharp teeth.
"It's finally awake." Lu Xiaotian felt that it was a bit absurd that he had encountered a few spirit beasts. All of them were of the highest quality. Only Di Kun was normal. His combat power was strong, especially after breaking through to level seven. He was not below Lu Xiaotian. As for Little Fire Crow and the Realm Breaking Insect, although their combat power was close to zero, they played a life-saving role at the most critical moment. One could not simply judge a spirit beast by its combat power.
However, the Realm Breaking Insect was good at breaking some strange restrictions. Ever since it broke the restriction of the green armored skeleton in the Bloody Forbidden Grounds, it had been in a deep sleep. It had slept for decades, which was very rare. Normally, the weirder and stronger the restriction that the Realm Breaking Insect ate, the longer it would take to digest it. When Lu Xiaotian was still in the Qi Refining Stage, he had encountered the green armored skeleton. Back then, the Realm Breaking Insect's power was relatively low. As for the green armored skeleton, Lu Xiaotian had not been able to figure out its true power. He only knew that every time he encountered the green armored skeleton, the monster's power would increase exponentially. It could not be judged by common sense. Perhaps it was an old monster that had lost a lot of power in the Bloody Forbidden Grounds. It had escaped decades ago, and even the dozens of Jin Dan cultivators had not been able to detect its presence. It was very powerful.
Perhaps the green armored skeleton's restriction was very powerful and much stronger than the Realm Breaking Insect. After the Realm Breaking Insect swallowed the restriction, it had fallen into a deep sleep.
No matter what, it was a good thing that it was awake. The Realm Breaking Insect's body was bigger than before, and its body was shining with black light. Its power must have increased. Lu Xiaotian threw a few Beast Spiritual Pills to the Realm Breaking Insect. The Realm Breaking Insect happily took the Beast Spiritual Pills and ate them.
Lu Xiaotian continued to use the Spiritual Power Ball to train his control of the Five Elements spiritual power.
Just like that, Lu Xiaotian stayed on the mountain peak for another year. During this time, the fat woman, Zhou Xiaocui, and the alcoholic Mo Wen Tian went through their tribulations one after another. The manly Zhou Xiaocui went through her tribulations first.
In the first wave of tribulations, half of the magical treasures that Zhou Xiaocui had prepared were destroyed. The situation was not good. With the rich spiritual energy, Zhou Xiaocui took a few pills and tried to recover her spiritual power. As for the magical treasures, they could not be recovered.
