The bolts of lightning in the sky were getting denser and denser as they rained down.
Gu Qing Shan turned up the volume on his headset, unleashed a blinding sword phantom, flew up to the sky and extinguished the bolts of lightning.
This battle went on for over half a day.
The Lightning Tribulation hasn't ended yet.
But the rain suddenly stopped.
Gu Qing Shan's expression changed.
It didn't stop earlier or later, but right when he was facing his Tribulation, the rain stopped.
Once the rain stops, the world will undergo an unknown change.
A new monster, a new calamity will appear, devouring humanity's entire civilization.
But right now, the Tribulation lightning is at its densest, even with Gu Qing Shan's capabilities, he doesn't have the time to care about anything else.
Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth and swung his hand to unleash a Secret Art.
[Drawn Shadow]
Countless black sword phantoms appeared out of nowhere, blooming like a flower, deflecting all the incoming bolts of lightning.
It was only now that Gu Qing Shan had the chance to take out his Holo-Brain.
"Impartial Goddess"
[I'm here, sir]
"Is it still raining all over the world?"
[It's all stopped]
[Immediately gather all the satellites around the world and display any anomalies on my screen]
[Sir, everything is normal, there are no anomalies at all]
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
Nothing?
How is that possible?
In the past life, as soon as the rain stopped, a great calamity would immediately descend.
"Is there nothing yet?"
[Everything is normal]
As he spoke, the black sword phantoms scattered as the Tribulation lightning once again rained down.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but put his Holo-Brain away and unleashed sword phantoms to deflect the Tribulation lightning.
"What the hell is coming? Damn it! "Gu Qing Shan complained in irritation.
But he couldn't do anything.
It wasn't raining, but the amount of Tribulation lightning was silently increasing.
Without a storm, the Tribulation lightning would continue to descend.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to calm himself down and raise his sword again.
Half an hour later.
Cold rain continued to fall from the sky, falling endlessly.
It's raining.
Gu Qing Shan stood blankly in the middle of the rain, his heart still beating erratically.
The rain continued to fall, pitter-patter.
The raindrops were hitting the ground faster and faster, the sound getting louder and louder.
The cold wind blew and the rain became heavier.
The rain had clearly stopped. According to common sense from his previous life, a disaster was imminent, and there would not be any rain for a while.
But now, the storm was rising again.
Nothing like this had ever happened in his previous life!
Could it be that one disaster was linked to another, erupting at the same time?
Gu Qing Shan was distracted and was almost struck by a tribulation lightning.
The bolt of tribulation lightning slipped through the gaps between the countless sword beams and pounced towards him in an overbearing manner.
By the time Gu Qing Shan reacted, it was already too late to raise her sword.
Shadow Shift!
The tribulation lightning struck the ground behind him.
Boom!
The desert rose like a wave and fell with the dripping rain.
"I can't go on like this. I can't think about it anymore."
Gu Qing Shan knew that she shouldn't have lost her composure.
When facing the lightning tribulation, one must correct their attitude and treat it seriously. They must not be distracted by thinking about the arrival of the disaster.
He tapped his Inventory Bag.
He put on a light golden general's battle armor.
"Impartial Goddess"
"I'm here."
"Change to a rock and roll style."
"Didn't you want some soothing music?"
"I need to focus now"
"Got it"
The sound of drums, bass, and roars could be heard all at once.
Gu Qing Shan swallowed a Spirit Replenishing Pill.
"I don't have the time right now. Pay close attention to the world's situation, as soon as anything out of the ordinary happens, tell me right away" Gu Qing Shan said.
[Understood, sir] Impartial Goddess replied.
Another bolt of tribulation lightning descended. Gu Qing Shan wielded her sword to face the lightning and began to face the Tribulation.
Time slowly passed.
A long day and night finally passed.
When Gu Qing Shan began his breakthrough, it was night time.
When he finished, it was still night time.
The Tribulation clouds scattered.
Only the icy rain continued to fall.
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes for a bit, feeling the overwhelming power inside his body.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
From now on, he is an Ascended realm cultivator.
If he runs into the Pope again, Gu Qing Shan won't need to run anymore.
Even if the other party has a myriad of God's Chosen Skills, Gu Qing Shan is a sword cultivator.
One sword to break all Laws.
Both sides can have a good fight to see who's stronger.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and waited for a few breaths' worth of time.
But his soul vessel didn't leave his body and head towards the space vortex.
"Hm? Strange, its wounds still haven't healed? "Gu Qing Shan muttered.
This was a normal breakthrough, the 100,000 years old giant corpse didn't do anything to lure him into the space vortex.
But Gu Qing Shan wasn't used to this kind of breakthrough.
Last time when it revealed its secret to me, the giant corpse was struck by the lightning.
It seems it's wounds are quite deep, even now it still doesn't have the strength to summon me to see it.
This time, Gu Qing Shan owes it two favors.
Not only the secret between worlds, but also Bai Hua Fairy's fate, it even gave him an opinion.
Such an existence can only be imprisoned in a small world, unable to move at all.
Who imprisoned it?
Gu Qing Shan shook his head, knowing that he doesn't have the qualifications to get involved in this matter.
Only when I become stronger in the future will I be able to think of a way to save it.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, a clear chime was heard.
[Ting]!
The War God UI's voice came.
[Detected user has successfully broken through to Ascended realm]
[User's maximum Soul Points increased to 300]
[User can now awaken Sword Manipulation]
[Awakening Sword Manipulation costs 500 Soul Points, would you like to unlock it?]
Sword Manipulation is the foundation of a Sword Saint, the most basic and important skill, as long as you want to walk the path of a Sword Saint, you must learn it.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Awaken"
[User has spent 500 Soul Points to awaken Sword Manipulation]
[User has remaining Soul Points, as user has learned Sword Manipulation, Secret Art Star Scar can now be awakened]
[Awakening Secret Art: Star Scar, costs 110 Soul Points]
[Would you like to spend 110 Soul Points to awaken Secret Art: Star Scar?]
[Awaken]
[User has remaining Soul Points to awaken Secret Art: Star Scar]
Awakening both [Sword Manipulation] and [Star Scar] at once, Gu Qing Shan's strength greatly increased.
In this life, he has once again stepped into Ascended realm, about to once again push open that door.
Gu Qing Shan recalled the memories in his mind. After a while.
He suddenly formed a hand seal.
Sword Manipulation.
The Earth Sword turned into a streak of light, dancing back and forth in the sky.
Gu Qing Shan formed another hand seal.
Five blinding sword phantoms appeared from the Earth Sword, like a meteor streaking across the sky, the light disappeared in a flash.
Rumble rumble!
The desert was cut open by the sword phantoms, leaving five deep ravines.
These five sword phantoms seemed to have pierced deep into the ground, the sand around them continued to fill in, but still couldn't fill up the ravines.
This was the Secret Art Star Scar, which can only be activated through [Sword Manipulation].
At this point, Gu Qing Shan has grasped a total of 7 Secret Arts, namely [Water Flow Severance], [Crescent Slash], [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon], [Drawn Shadow], [Swallow Returns], [Torrent], and [Star Scar].
Gu Qing Shan's hand seal changed.
The Earth Sword flew back into his hand.
Gu Qing Shan stood straight with the sword in hand, looking at the five ravines with a complicated expression.
I've finally taken a small step towards becoming a Sword Saint.
But using hand seals to summon swords is only the basics.
As the saying goes, a Sword Saint can summon a thousand swords with a single thought.
In the cultivation world, so many Ascended realm sword cultivators couldn't even become a Sword Saint.
In history, there were Sainted realm sword cultivators, but they couldn't be considered Sword Saints.
This isn't a problem of cultivation.
Only when one's swordsmanship reaches a certain level, their understanding and control of the sword reaches another level, can they become a Sword Saint.
To become a Sword Saint, talent, comprehension, bone structure, luck, and hard work, not a single one can be lacking.
In the entire cultivation world, there are billions of players, but there are only 10 Sword Saints.
However, sword immortals rarely used their powers.
Because the swordsmanship of a Sword Saint is extremely powerful, but it also consumes a lot of spirit energy.
Someone once deduced that to fight in Sword Saint mode for 1 minute, you need to have at least the spirit energy of a Sainted realm cultivator.
But in the game, the amount of EXP required to reach Sainted realm is too much.
No player can ever reach Sainted realm.
That's why the power of a Sword Saint is usually only for a split second.
After that, they won't have the strength to fight anymore.
— — -even though you have powerful swordsmanship, you don't have enough spirit energy to support a Sword Saint's intense battle, this feeling of helplessness and defeat can drive a person crazy.
