"This is?!" Sect Master Zhu Zhao was stunned, and his mind wavered.
There were not many cultivators in the world who could not recognize the scene in front of him.
It was the Heavenly Tribulation.
It was something that made cultivators both afraid and happy.
They were afraid because the Heavenly Tribulation was extremely powerful and extremely dangerous.
Under the Heavenly Tribulation, cultivators could be turned into ashes if they were not careful. Their many years of cultivation would go up in smoke, and they would die.
They were happy because every time a cultivator passed a Heavenly Tribulation, their strength would undergo a metamorphosis.
It was also because of this that cultivators would usually be fully prepared for the Heavenly Tribulation before they dared to carefully pass it.
Even if they were lucky enough to pass the Heavenly Tribulation, under normal circumstances, the cultivator would not be in a good state at that time.
After all, resisting the Heavenly Tribulation would often consume all their magic power and even seriously injure them.
Although the Power of Heaven and Earth would immediately surge into the cultivator's body, this process would still take some time.
And this was often the time when the cultivator was at his weakest.
If the enemy knew the time and location of the Heavenly Tribulation, they could ambush and attack the cultivator when the cultivator had just passed the Heavenly Tribulation and the Power of Heaven and Earth had not yet descended.
This would often achieve great results and succeed in one fell swoop.
Although there were not many examples of this in the Cultivation World, it was definitely not rare.
Therefore, the time and location of the Heavenly Tribulation were top secrets for any cultivator who was going through the Heavenly Tribulation. Other than the people closest to them, they would definitely not dare to reveal it easily.
Those who were cautious would even keep their mouths shut and would not even reveal the slightest bit of information to the people close to them.
After all, the Heavenly Tribulation was a personal matter. Even if they told others, others could not help and there was even the risk of revealing the information.
Therefore, there was indeed no need to tell others about the Heavenly Tribulation.
However, today, the Taibai Sword Master in front of him chose to pass the Heavenly Tribulation in front of an enemy who was at the first step of the Dao Integration Stage?
How arrogant and confident was that?
Not only did he look down on Sect Master Zhu Zhao, but he also did not take the power of Heaven and Earth seriously.
…
At this moment, the sky had become a sea of lightning.
The lightning surged, and the thunder was even more so like a tide. There was a power that could shatter everything, and it was extremely blazing.
At this moment, there seemed to be only purple light left between Heaven and Earth.
Purple light pressed down and heavenly thunder was about to strike. It had the power to shake Kunlun.
Zhu Zhao looked at the tornado, the black clouds, and the purple thunderbolts that were attracted by the Taibai Sword Master's abundant energy, remaining silent.
Outsiders were not allowed to interfere with a cultivator's tribulation.
Anyone who interfered, whether it was helping or causing trouble, would be included in the Heavenly Tribulation's attack.
Moreover, it would automatically match the cultivation of the cultivator who interfered with it, and descend a heavenly tribulation of the corresponding level to punish him.
As a result, sect master Zhu Zhao could only watch as the thunderclouds in the sky grew more and more intense. He even took a step back. He did not dare to use any of his powers, as he was afraid that the heavenly tribulation would sense him and attack him.
However, he was in no hurry at all.
He was waiting for the moment when the Taibai Sword Master passed the 29th Divine Tribulation.
At that time, he would immediately strike with the force of a thunderbolt and kill the Taibai Swordmaster directly. He would not give him any more chances.
As for the possibility that the Taibai Sword Master could not survive the 29 Divine Tribulations, Zhu Zhao did not consider it at all.
Even if he didn't use his full strength, how could a First Tribulation cultivator who could exchange a blow with him be unable to transcend a mere 29 Heavenly Tribulations?
Boom!
After brewing for a while, the thunderbolts finally exploded.
The thunder was so loud that it almost pierced through people's eardrums and shattered their souls.
The power of the thunderbolts even connected heaven and earth. It was extremely vast, like a waterfall hanging upside down in the sky, and then pouring down.
The glaring thunderbolts filled everyone's sight.
This was a world of thunderbolts, which could destroy everything. It made people feel fear and even their hair stand on end.
This was the will of heaven and earth, which wanted to obliterate all living beings who cultivated Taoism.
The wind and thunder became more and more turbulent, like ten thousand horses galloping.
In the next moment, nine thunderbolts came from the Heavenly Court.
Each thunderbolt was only as thick as a vine. It did not look terrifying.
However, no one dared to underestimate it.
Because it was the Thunder of Heavenly Tribulation.
Above the Yi River, nine thunderbolts like purple snakes all struck the Taibai Sword Master.
This sword cultivator who had reached the Eighth State three times was so confident that he stood still on the spot. He did not even use the Taibai Sword.
Although the Taibai Sword did not use, it did not mean that the Taibai Sword Master did not use his sword.
Inside his body, there was a silent sword essence suddenly rising.
Immediately, the wind and clouds surged in his Dantian. Countless small sword-like sword intent began to wreak havoc. It was extremely majestic, surging out and flowing all the way up along his meridians.
When the sword intent flowed to the Taibai Sword Master's chest, it was like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. It underwent a kind of transformation and turned into a kind of substantial aura. Then, it whistled through his chest, vast and boundless, with the momentum to go straight to the sky.
What kind of aura was that?
It was the Great Spirit.
The subtle sound of airflow was heard, spreading around the Taibai Sword Master, making the space there crystal like a magnificent crystal.
That was the Great Spirit Domain.
The first thunderbolt finally came.
However, before it could get close, it hit an invisible obstacle, and a messy net-like flame appeared.
The Taibai Sword Master's body did not move.
The remaining thunderbolts flowed into the ground and scattered in all directions, causing the ground to be scorched black. The cold air that overflowed from the Yi River also spread out.
After the first thunderbolt, the second one came. There was no time to breathe.
The Heavenly Tribulation was never sentimental.
Its existence was to cut off the path of cultivators.
The Heavenly Tribulation struck from the sky.
There was a loud bang.
It was like raindrops falling on a lotus leaf.
The Heavenly Tribulation that was clearly falling from the sky met with a layer of obstruction above the Taibai Sword Master's body. It turned into countless tiny thunderbolts, flowing in all directions. Finally, a breeze blew by and sent those thunderbolts away.
The domain around the Taibai Sword Master became a square inch land in the sea of purple thunderbolts. No matter how wild the world was, it remained motionless and kept its own peace.
Boom!
Another blazing thunderbolt fell. The world trembled. Endless purple light shone incomparably, and there were countless electric scars.
However, no matter how turbulent it was, the Heavenly Tribulation could not get within 100 feet of the Taibai Sword Master.
People held their breaths and watched quietly.
The fourth one.
The fifth one.
The sixth one.
The seventh one.
Another four thunderbolts flashed by.
The Taibai Sword Master did not use the Taibai Sword from beginning to end. He did not even move a step.
"Is he going to pass the 29 Heavenly Tribulations so easily?" Seeing that the Taibai Sword Master was infinitely close to the ninth thunderbolt and was about to pass the Heavenly Tribulation that other cultivators feared like a tiger, everyone felt extremely shocked.
Whether it was the sword cultivators of the Sword Faction who followed the Taibai Sword Master to guard the Yi Shui Platform or the Spirit Huan Sect cultivators who were the souls of the Mental Demons, they all felt the same.
The eighth thunderbolt fell on time.
It was still as thick as a vine, but its color was dark purple and almost black.
Boom!
The dark purple thunderbolt still exploded 100 feet above the Taibai Sword Master. The blazing divine light made the sky, which had just revealed a glimmer of light, as bright as noon. It was bright and dazzling.
The eighth Heavenly Thunder, which was as thick as a vine, turned into a sea of thunder, completely submerging the body of the Taibai Sword Master.
Before the sea of thunderbolts dispersed and people could see the situation clearly, the ninth thunderbolt had followed closely behind.
Buzz!
It was a thunderbolt that had turned black, and it fell vertically with a buzzing sound.
There were tens of thousands of thunderbolts, and purple-black became the only two colors in the world.
In such a sea of thunderbolts, the Taibai Sword Master and his Law Domain were like a lonely boat in a tsunami, and they seemed to be in imminent danger.
But everyone knew that it was just an illusion.
Because the Heavenly Tribulation had not even forced the Taibai Sword Master to use his Taibai Sword, so how could it pose a threat to him?
The 29 Heavenly Tribulations flashed again and again, and finally, they all fell.
In the vast sky above Yi Shui, the thunder no longer sounded, and the world calmed down in an instant. The thunderclouds dispersed as if they had never appeared.
And the majestic sea of thunderbolts suddenly shook, as if it was pulled away by a gust of wind, and disappeared in a flash.
The Taibai Sword Master was alone in the sky, cold and cheerless.
The 29 Heavenly Tribulation had passed.
A strange force began to grow in the sky.
It was the power of the world brought by the Heavenly Tribulation.
The more powerful the Heavenly Tribulation, the more powerful the power of the world it contained.
As long as a cultivator refined the power of the world, there would be a qualitative transformation.
The problem was that the cultivator had to survive the Heavenly Tribulation first before he could refine the power of the world.
There was no doubt that the Taibai Sword Master had passed the 29 Heavenly Tribulations.
After absorbing and refining the power of the world, he would advance to the Second Tribulation realm.
However, some people did not want to give the Taibai Sword Master a chance to advance to the Second Tribulation realm.
"It's time to end your boring little tricks." Zhu Zhao's eyes narrowed, and he wanted to use a supreme murderous technique to kill the Taibai Sword Master before he advanced to the Second Tribulation realm.
He roared, and a huge Heavenly Roc appeared behind him, with golden light soaring into the sky.
An endless terrifying aura spread.
But just as he was about to use his killing move, a sudden buzzing sound came from the sky.
Then, a suffocating aura approached again.
Everyone's heart palpitated, and they almost couldn't breathe under the pressure of the aura.
Sect master Zhu Zhao was the most embarrassed. He forcefully suppressed the aura that had surged out from his body at this moment, causing his aura to become chaotic and his chest to feel extremely stuffy.
But he had to do it.
"There's more!" His eyes were filled with horror, and he could not help but look up at Gao Tian.
Over there, dark clouds rolled and thunder rumbled. It was like thousands of soldiers and horses.
That was … the 39 Heavenly Tribulations.
If he used his magic power to attack under the Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Dao would mistake him for interfering with the Taibai Sword Master's tribulation. Then, he would suffer.
Therefore, he could only choose to forcefully suppress the aura that was about to erupt. He could only suffer in silence, unable to voice out his bitterness.
But … how could it be?
For the first time, Zhu Zhao was stunned.
After the 29 Heavenly Tribulations came the 39 Heavenly Tribulations. It was so urgent that the power of the world in the 29 Heavenly Tribulations had not been absorbed.
It was the first time he had seen such a thing.
Naturally, he did not know that the Taibai Sword Master, who had cultivated three lives and cultivated the Great Spirit, could recover all the Great Spirit after awakening the memories of his previous two lives.
Once all the Great Spirit was recovered, his cultivation would return to the peak of his previous life.
For the current Taibai Sword Master, it was just a matter of a thought.
Boom!
Nine bolts of lightning fell from the sky again.
Compared to the 29 Heavenly Tribulations, the nine bolts of lightning of the 39 Heavenly Tribulations were as thick as a tree.
"Peak Master!" A Sword Sect cultivator immediately cried out in surprise.
It was not that they did not believe in the strength of the Taibai Sword Master, but the problem was that he had not absorbed the power of the world in the 29 Heavenly Tribulations.
It meant that the Taibai Sword Master was transcending the 39 Heavenly Tribulations with the cultivation of the First Tribulation realm.
How could they not be worried?
"He's courting death!" Zhu Zhao's expression changed first, and then his eyes became a little strange. He roughly understood what the Taibai Sword Master was thinking. "Do you think you can avoid my attack by doing this?"
The reason why the Taibai Sword Master could not wait to transcend the 39 Heavenly Tribulations with the cultivation of the First Tribulation realm was that he knew that he would not be given time to refine the power of the world.
Therefore, the Taibai Sword Master chose to rush to the Third Tribulation realm in one go.
However, not to mention how arrogant it was to transcend the 39 Heavenly Tribulations with the cultivation of the First Tribulation realm, even if he succeeded, he would still need time to absorb the power of the world.
So, what was the point of doing this?
It was nothing more than delaying the date of his death.
With this thought in mind, Zhu Zhao revealed a sinister smile.
Boom!
The first bolt of lightning of the 39 Heavenly Tribulations had already landed.
However, it was still difficult for the lightning to enter the area formed by the awe-inspiring aura.
Boom!
The second bolt of lightning, the third bolt of lightning, and the fourth bolt of lightning came one after another.
It could not enter, it could not enter, it could not enter, it could not enter.
The lightning became more and more turbulent, and its color was constantly turning darker.
This meant that the power in the lightning was becoming more and more condensed, and it was becoming more and more terrifying.
But at the same time, the awe-inspiring aura in the Taibai Sword Master's chest became more and more vast.
This was the awe-inspiring sword intent that he had cultivated in his previous two lives, the Awe-Inspiring Sword Dao. Now, it had returned.
His body, meridians, blood, and elemental energy were trembling at a high frequency as if they were cheering for the return of the awe-inspiring sword intent.
"Welcome back."
.....
When the ninth bolt of lightning landed …
The dark purple turned black like the Nether Lightning.
The Taibai Sword Master finally took a step forward.
He took a step in the void.
He also took a step toward his Awe-Inspiring Sword Dao.
The first step.
The awe-inspiring aura turned corporeal at this moment. It floated up and down, looking confused and full of sword intent.
The ninth bolt of lightning still ended up outside the Awe-Inspiring Domain.
The Taibai Sword Master's eyes were deep. He did not move, and only his hair danced in the wind.
But the other cultivators could not remain calm.
"How is it possible for a First Tribulation cultivator to undergo the 39th Heavenly Tribulation?" The corners of Zhu Zhao's eyes twitched slightly. He could not understand this scene.
What kind of power was this?
He could not understand.
Although he had taken the human spirit and had a human body, he was not a real human cultivator after all. He could never understand.
In fact, not many real human cultivators could understand this scene.
But Zhu Zhao's strength was something he could not tolerate.
"Enough!" he shouted. The Heavenly Peng behind him rose again, and its ferocious aura filled the sky.
Boom!
Earth-shattering thunder rumbled once again.
The Heavenly Peng was so shocked that it turned into an ostrich. It shrank back into Zhu Zhao's body.
Again and again, and again and again!
Nine bolts of lightning suddenly rose. They were brewing in the dark clouds like dragons, ready to strike.
Everyone was stunned. They were dumbfounded.
This was the 49th Heavenly Tribulation.
Was the Taibai Sword Master crazy?
The sword cultivators of the Sword Sect were shocked. They all felt that something was wrong.
However, something even more unexpected happened.
While the Taibai Sword Master was undergoing the 39th Heavenly Tribulation, the power of heaven and earth brought by the 29th Heavenly Tribulation finally grew, formed, and finished brewing.
The fresh and mysterious aura of heaven and earth passed through the dark clouds formed by the 49th Heavenly Tribulation. Then, it poured into the Taibai Sword Master's body like a flood.
His eyes suddenly shone brightly. His cultivation rose at a speed visible to the naked eye. His aura rose again and again.
The fresh and powerful power of heaven and earth entered the Taibai Sword Master's body. Then, it passed through the awe-inspiring aura in his chest and surged into his dantian along his meridians. It turned into a majestic power that strengthened his body.
His arms, muscles, bones, magic power, and even divine consciousness began to transform and become crystal clear.
Thus, the Taibai Sword Master reached the Second Tribulation realm.
Now, he was transcending the 49th Heavenly Tribulation as a Second Tribulation realm cultivator.
If he could safely transcend the 49th Heavenly Tribulation, the power of heaven and earth brought by the 39th Heavenly Tribulation would also be ready.
By then, the Taibai Sword Master would be a Third Tribulation cultivator.
This was his way of breaking out of the situation.
By overlapping the time the Heavenly Tribulation needed to brew the power of heaven and earth, he could break out of the situation.
It was simple and direct, but it was extremely difficult.
Because he had to be sure that he could transcend the tribulation.
At this time, the 49th Heavenly Tribulation was finally ready.
But this time, the Taibai Sword Master finally attacked.
He waved the Taibai Sword in his hand and slashed at the sky.
Suddenly, the awe-inspiring aura turned into wisps of wind, rippling around his body.
A bolt of lightning struck down, flashing with lightning.
But when the lightning touched the wisps of wind, it was immediately disintegrated and disappeared with the wind.
The Heavenly Tribulation seemed to feel that it had been provoked. With a rumbling sound, its momentum became even stronger.
The second bolt of lightning was dispersed.
The third bolt of lightning was dispersed.
The fourth bolt of lightning was also dispersed.
The Taibai Sword Master held the Taibai Sword and slashed again and again.
The Heavenly Tribulation was dispersed again and again.
But the second bolt of lightning was dispersed seven feet in front of the Taibai Sword Master.
The third bolt of lightning was six feet in front of him.
The Heavenly Tribulation was increasing in power one after another. At the same time, it was also advancing.
The fourth bolt of lightning was five feet in front of him.
The fifth bolt of lightning was four feet in front of him.
The sixth bolt of lightning was three feet in front of him.
And so on. The ninth bolt of lightning would drown the Taibai Sword Master and turn him into dust.
Pop!
The seventh bolt of lightning came.
The Taibai Sword Master waved his sword, and the wind formed by the awe-inspiring aura went up to meet it like before.
The Heavenly Tribulation kept advancing and sizzling.
Finally … when it was three feet in front of the Taibai Sword Master, it suddenly dispersed with the wind.
Yes, it was not two feet, but three feet.
It was three feet in front of him and couldn't advance.
This was the Awe-Inspiring Sword Dao that the Taibai Sword Master cultivated.
A little awe-inspiring aura was like a thousand miles of wind.
Of course, a thousand miles of wind was just the Taibai Sword Master's expectation after he achieved great success in the Sword Dao.
Now, he was under the Heavenly Tribulation.
It was a three feet in front of him.
The three feet in front of a sword cultivator was always his world.
That was because the sword was three feet in length.
Therefore, three feet in front of him was the limit of the Heavenly Tribulation.
The Taibai Sword Master closed his eyes slightly, and the Taibai Sword in his hand seemed to contain the world.
But if one observed carefully, one would see an invisible trace of blood seeping out of the corner of his mouth.
That was because every tribulation in the Tribulation Transcendence realm was a different level.
Therefore, the difficulty of transcending the 49 Heavenly Tribulation for a Second Tribulation was ten times that of a First Tribulation.
Boom!
The eighth bolt of lightning of the 49 Heavenly Tribulation came.
With the Taibai Sword Master as the center, layers of lightning exploded outwards.
Thunder was everywhere, thunder was everywhere.
Only the three feet in front of the Taibai Sword Master was pure land.
At that moment, the eighth and ninth bolts of lightning exploded one after another.
Then, the sky was clear.
The 49 Heavenly Tribulation had passed.
The power of heaven and earth brought by the 39 Heavenly Tribulation poured into the Taibai Sword Master's body at this moment.
Therefore, he reached the Third Tribulation realm.
In the sky, the power of heaven and earth belonging to the 49 Heavenly Tribulation was still brewing.
One could imagine that the Taibai Sword Master would reach the Fourth Tribulation realm in a while.
At that moment, he finally stopped.
He stopped after the 49 Heavenly Tribulation.
No more thunderclouds appeared in the sky.
This was the true end.
The reason was very simple.
The Taibai Sword Master opened his eyes and whispered to himself, "It's enough."
.....
Xia Daoyun had once told Lu Qingshan that once Peak Master Hao Ran cultivated to the Eighth Realm again, his cultivation would definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
It wouldn't be strange for him to become the number one person in the sword sect below Sword Immortal Qingyun.
What was the meaning of 'leaps and bounds'?
He broke through three realms in one day.
He reached the Fourth Tribulation from the First Tribulation.
"One in the morning and four in the evening."
This was' leaps and bounds'.
