Chapter 1723
Promotion
"Is this senior brother the one who came to Biyou Island and officially joined the sect before our teacher left?" a disciple asked in a low voice.
"It's him!"
The fellow disciple beside him nodded and said, "But why is he so powerful? He actually withstood the pressure with his early Golden Immortal cultivation! Even the senior brothers and sisters who are at a higher level than him couldn't do it and took a few steps back."
"This senior brother must have some extraordinary abilities, otherwise why would the teacher have accepted him?"
After thinking about it again, everyone realized that it made a lot of sense.
Not far away, they mentioned the dozens of Golden Immortal cultivators, their expressions somewhat stiff and awkward. Although they were speaking very softly, the conversation was still very clear to everyone present.
They hadn't thought much of it before, but after their juniors brought it up, they felt embarrassed.
Their realm and cultivation level are much higher, but their performance is not as good as that of a junior brother who is in the early stage of Golden Immortal, so they can't help but feel a little ashamed.
However, they did not act recklessly because they knew that a careless mistake could lead to injury, and they would end up losing more than they gained.
At the same time, they were also curious and even thought that after the tribulation ended, they would go up and ask to see if they could find out the secret.
It wasn't for the sake of saving face, but rather to temper oneself while enduring stronger pressure, and also to observe the laws carried by the tribulation lightning up close.
Li Zhirui himself noticed that he had attracted a lot of attention from his fellow disciples and knew that his performance was somewhat outstanding, but he did not lower his standards because of this.
Because he knew that there was no need to be overly cautious or secretive in the Shangqing Dao, and even less so in the prehistoric world!
Instead, you should show your best and strongest side.
Of course, this does not mean that one should be arrogant and domineering, or act recklessly. After all, in the current prehistoric world, one is not qualified to act in this way without reaching the Great Luo Perfection realm.
Even if one reaches the Great Luo Perfection stage, it doesn't mean one can run rampant and dominate the world. Besides, there are many other beings at the same level, and those saints who left the prehistoric world might have left behind some methods.
Therefore, Li Zhirui did not restrain himself despite the attention he received from others, and continued to stand on the edge of the tribulation to observe the Great Luo Tribulation.
Although his current realm is only Golden Immortal, and he still has the Taiyi realm to go before he can break through to the Great Luo realm, which is unknown how many tens of thousands of years away it will be, this does not mean that this tribulation will not benefit him at all.
First, the powerful pressure of the tribulation lightning can effectively train his soul, will, and temperament.
Secondly, there's the Daoist principles carried by the tribulation lightning. Even if it's not a purification principle, it's still beneficial to understand more about the principles.
Finally, understanding the power of the lightning tribulation will help you be mentally prepared when you break through in the future.
In any case, Li Zhirui still reaped a very rich harvest from this tribulation.
At this moment, Yunxiao is about to face the final and most powerful tribulation lightning!
Rumbling--
Despite the deafening explosion, most of the disciples seemed completely unresponsive, standing there dumbfounded, staring blankly ahead.
It wasn't that there was no reaction, or rather, the pressure of the tribulation lightning was too great, and they were completely terrified.
The only ones unaffected were Guiling, Wudang, Jinling, and a few Taiyi disciples.
Even Li Zhirui was not spared, but he performed quite well, recovering to normal after a few breaths, unlike the others who took a while to gradually come to their senses.
"Is the power of the Great Luo Tribulation really this terrifying? I'm so far away, yet I've been affected so severely?!" A disciple's voice was filled with fear and lingering dread. He even suspected that if he had been standing any closer, he would have fainted!
"do not know……"
Another disciple shook his head blankly and said, "But in my memory, it shouldn't be that scary!"
"Didn't the teacher say that it would be easier to break through and that the power of the tribulation lightning would decrease? How come it feels like the complete opposite of what the teacher said? Could it be that ten Great Luo Golden Immortals have already been born in these years?"
Because of this tribulation lightning, the crowd couldn't help but whisper among themselves, and the more they discussed it, the more puzzled they became.
The three at the forefront, Guiling, Wudang, and Jinling, had completely changed from their previous relaxed expressions to serious and solemn ones, with a hint of worry in their eyes.
If even disciples of lower cultivation levels can discover something, how could they not?
Even compared to their distant memories, they had personally experienced the Great Luo Tribulation!
When they broke through, the power of the lightning tribulation was indeed terrifying and strong, but it was still somewhat inferior to Yunxiao's this time.
If that were all, their expressions wouldn't be so solemn. After all, it's normal for the power of lightning tribulations to gradually increase as the prehistoric world develops.
But mainly they remembered what their teacher had said before, that the power of the lightning tribulation would be greatly reduced.
The three of them had no doubts about this, because their teacher would never lie or deceive them about something so important.
As for the claim that ten Great Luo Immortals have been born in the prehistoric world over the past few thousand years, that's impossible. They are very concerned about this news, and based on the information they have gathered so far, there are only three newly promoted Great Luo Immortals.
Even if someone manages to conceal it well, there's absolutely no way there could be more than ten!
In other words, the Great Luo-level lightning tribulation that Yunxiao is currently undergoing is still a test in which the Heavenly Dao has reduced its power!
If its power hadn't been weakened, how terrifying would the lightning tribulation have been? How many Taiyi Golden Immortals would have been able to successfully break through?
Thinking of this, the three of them felt even heavier. After all, Shangqing Dao still had more than a dozen disciples who were expected to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!
However, at present, the only two who have the best chance are Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming.
The two of them can squeeze into those ten spots and enjoy the blessings of Heaven, but what about the other disciples?
However, with so many junior brothers and sisters around, they couldn't voice their concerns directly. They could only discuss them privately after the tribulation was over.
The moment Li Zhirui recovered, he immediately looked towards Yunxiao's location and saw her entangled with the tribulation lightning.
However, judging from the situation, this last lightning bolt still couldn't harm her; at most, it was just a bit more troublesome than the previous lightning bolts, and she couldn't resolve it immediately.
But given enough time, the tribulation lightning won't be able to harm her!
Not only Li Zhirui, but many of his fellow disciples also noticed this, and excited smiles appeared on their faces.
as predicted!
However, in a short while, the power of the last tribulation lightning plummeted, and it was no match for Yunxiao at all.
She dealt with it quickly and decisively, without lingering on it.
After the tribulation lightning completely dissipated, a black light pierced through the sky and directly entered Yunxiao's sea of consciousness.
However, there were extraterrestrial demons spying on her from the side, so she didn't have a chance to catch her breath or prepare. As soon as she saw the tribulation lightning dissipate, she rushed out impatiently.
At first, she was indeed caught off guard, but she quickly calmed down, her mind was as still as water, and she remained completely unmoved.
No matter what tricks the inner demon used, Yunxiao was not affected in the slightest.
"Ah ah ah ah..."
In the end, the inner demon's unwilling roars could only transform into pure divine soul power, becoming the resources for her soul breakthrough.
hum-
The surrounding tribulation clouds changed instantly, as if endless pure spiritual energy was pouring down like a celestial river, while the clouds, like a gluttonous beast, were absorbing the spiritual energy frantically and rapidly refining it into magical power.
boom!
Not long after, a powerful pressure erupted from Yunxiao's body, and the strong airflow directly shoveled away a layer of land within a radius of a hundred miles. Even though Li Zhirui and the others were far away, they still felt a chilling sense of oppression.
Great Golden Immortal!
Looking at Yunxiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground refining spiritual energy, he felt a sense of envy and longing in his eyes. He made up his mind that one day he would definitely be able to break through to the Great Luo realm!
For the vast majority of living beings, the Great Luo Golden Immortal is the ultimate goal in their eyes. As for the Great Luo Dao Fruit? They dare not even dream of it.
Even the confident Li Zhirui has now set his sights on becoming a Great Immortal!
After all, although the difference between a Grand Luo Golden Immortal and a Grand Luo Dao Fruit is only one realm, the gap between them may be greater than that between a Loose Immortal and a Grand Luo Golden Immortal!
Therefore, he did not set his goals in an unattainable realm.
My mind is filled with countless thoughts, but the outside world is but a fleeting moment.
Congratulations to Junior Sister/Senior Sister Yunxiao on breaking through to the Great Luo Realm!
When everyone saw Yunxiao refine all the spiritual energy and open his eyes, they immediately offered their congratulations.
For a time, the entire Biyou Island was filled with joy, dispelling the negative effects of the various misfortunes that had occurred in Shangqing Dao after the great calamity.
"Thank you all for protecting me. After I consolidate my cultivation, I will hold a grand sermon. I hope you will all be able to attend." Yunxiao said softly.
"must!"
"Senior Sister Yunxiao, you should go into seclusion quickly to consolidate your cultivation level."
……
Everyone chimed in, creating a lively atmosphere.
Yunxiao bowed to everyone in greeting, smiled slightly, and then slipped back into his cave.
"Senior Sister Yunxiao is truly amazing. Facing such a powerful tribulation, she acted so nonchalantly, as if she hadn't even used her full strength," a cultivator remarked.
"Yes! I feel the same way."
Everyone nodded in agreement, their faces full of admiration.
Many people are wondering how many tribulations he could withstand if it were him.
Even Li Zhirui couldn't help but ponder this question, but then shook his head, feeling somewhat frustrated. With his current strength, even if he used all his methods, he couldn't cope with the first tribulation lightning.
"Really, I'm not even a Taiyi Golden Immortal, I have no idea about the strength of a Taiyi. With my current strength, of course I can't handle it!"
So thinking about these things now is actually meaningless.
After thinking it through, Li Zhirui quietly left the place and returned to Jinglian Valley.
"Now that Senior Sister Yunxiao has broken through to the Great Luo realm, along with the three Senior Sisters Guiling, Biyou Island has a total of four Great Luo realm experts, making it still a top-tier force in the prehistoric world!"
"If any more senior brothers or sisters break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, the sect will have the most Great Luo Golden Immortals among all its members."
"I wonder which senior brother or sister will be the next to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm."
Gradually, the topics of conversation among the disciples who remained in place also changed.
Some guessed Zhao Gongming, some guessed Liuguang, some guessed Bidu, and some guessed other cultivators, but these three were the most popular because they were all Taiyi Golden Immortals at the peak of their cultivation and had accumulated their cultivation over a long period of time.
Among them, Zhao Gongming received the most support.
Because in the eyes of many cultivators, this senior disciple of the inner sect has always been the one with the highest realm and cultivation level!
Although the accident involving Yunxiao occurred, it is unlikely that a second accident will happen.
……
the other side.
After Yunxiao returned to his cave and consolidated his cultivation, the three of them, Guiling and Guiling, did not stay where they were. Instead, they gathered in Guiling's cave.
"Senior sister, if the power of the Great Luo level tribulation is so strong, will the other junior brothers and sisters really be able to succeed when they try to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm?" Jin Ling said worriedly.
Breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm is extremely difficult, with a success rate of less than 20%!
Even for these disciples of sages, with the guidance of sage teachers, the success rate is only 30% to 40%.
If things go as they suspect, the success rate will definitely drop further, perhaps not even exceeding 10%.
"Ugh!"
Guiling and Wudang looked worried upon hearing the question, unsure how to answer.
But sometimes, no answer is the best answer.
This problem is one that even their teacher, Shangqing Daozun, couldn't solve, let alone them.
What they could do was to enhance the strength and foundation of their junior brothers and sisters who were breaking through, or to prepare some pills to restore their mana.
However, this matter is not so urgent, after all, they are still in seclusion, trying to break through to the Great Luo Realm.
Therefore, the three turtle spirits discussed for a while and then returned to their cave.
……
Pure Lotus Valley.
Li Zhirui sat cross-legged in the center of the island in the lake, circulating his internal energy to heal his injuries.
It's important to know that he stood closest to the edge of the lightning tribulation from beginning to end, and although he didn't show any discomfort or pain, his body was actually affected to some extent.
For example, the soul was overwhelmed by the powerful pressure and suffered excessive consumption, even developing some minor wounds.
Fortunately, none of these problems are serious!
If Li Zhirui hadn't known in his heart that the problem wasn't serious, he would never have stayed in one place from beginning to end, after all, he has never been a person who cares about saving face.
Moreover, these minor injuries are insignificant compared to his gains.
Under the tempering of powerful pressure over a long period of time, his soul, temperament, Dao heart, and will have all been greatly improved.
It's important to understand that these mysterious yet crucial elements are relatively easy to enhance and strengthen. (End of Chapter)
