Chapter 316: Wang Jianqiang's Nascent Soul Tribulation

Hearing Mo Wuming's words, Mu Lingxi, Wang Yu Yao, and the others shifted their expressions, though they did not immediately reveal their thoughts.

"I can testify that he is indeed a Daoist Friend of Daoist Friend Wang."

"Like me, he got to know Daoist Friend Wang in Shenfeng City."

Just then, Tushan Youyou walked out.

"Fairy Tushan, we meet again."

Seeing Tushan Youyou, Mo Wuming smiled, though the smile was somewhat strained.

He had also seen the battle between Tushan Youyou and Taicang.

He considered his own strength currently inferior to Taicang's, yet Tushan Youyou had been able to fight the other to a standstill.

Such strength had completely surpassed his own.

Back in Shenfeng City, his strength and Tushan Youyou's had been on par, and most of the time, he had even been the one with the upper hand.

How much time had passed since then?

He had actually been left behind by such a large gap.

This made him feel a wave of dejection in his heart.

After receiving Tushan Youyou's verification, Mu Lingxi and the others finally believed Mo Wuming's identity.

It was not that they were overly suspicious.

It was that Wang Jianqiang had almost never made any male friends.

As the saying goes, when things are abnormal, there must be a demon.

This made them subconsciously suspicious of Mo Wuming's identity.

After some conversation.

Mu Lingxi, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, Xing Li, Yang Wanxin, and Yun Xin all prepared to return to Desolate City.

Upon learning that Wang Jianqiang was in seclusion for Nascent Soul formation, Tushan Youyou and Qingcheng also prepared to return together to watch Wang Jianqiang form his Nascent Soul.

As for Mo Wuming.

Because he had been dealt a blow, he was single-mindedly focused on cultivation and chose to remain in the Desolate Realm to strive further.

……

Desolate City.

On the Central Plaza.

The space before the Desolate Realm Stele rippled, and a group of eight women appeared from the void.

As the eight women appeared.

The Desolate Qi they had accumulated was entirely detected and extracted by the Desolate Ranking.

The Desolate Ranking flashed with Spirit Light, and the rankings changed instantly.

On this trip, Mu Lingxi had single-handedly slain Ji Zhangkong, who was tenth on the Desolate Ranking, Taicang, who was seventh, and ten other cultivators on the Desolate Ranking.

Having obtained a massive amount of Desolate Qi, combined with her previous accumulation from slaying Desolate Beasts in the Desolate Realm, she appeared directly in third place on the Desolate Ranking.

Pushing Qingcheng down to fourth place.

After Tushan Youyou's strength increased, her speed in slaying Desolate Beasts grew significantly, and having also slain three cultivators on the Desolate Ranking, she was ranked directly in tenth place on the Desolate Ranking.

As for Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li, they all ranked within the top fifty of the Desolate Ranking.

Sensing the changes in the Desolate Ranking.

The originally bustling Square went quiet for a moment.

Immediately following,

Countless gazes turned and cast toward the front of the Desolate Realm Stele.

When everyone saw the eight figures before the Desolate Realm Stele, their eyes were filled with astonishment, and they were unable to recover for a long time.

After walking out from the passage before the Desolate Realm Stele, Mu Lingxi turned to look at Qingcheng.

"Qingcheng Fairy, since you are a friend of Senior Brother, you are not an outsider."

"Why not just come back with us and stay with us?"

"That way, we can exchange pointers on cultivation, look out for each other if anything happens, and it will be more convenient for everything..."

Hearing Mu Lingxi's invitation, Qingcheng was somewhat moved.

She had already seen the formidable strength of both Mu Lingxi and Tushan Youyou.

If she could exchange pointers with the two of them, she would indeed gain significant benefits.

More importantly.

If she could live with Wang Jianqiang, it would be even more convenient to obtain the power to purify her foundation, which she thought about day and night.

Thinking of this, she did not hesitate and nodded in agreement.

Afterward, the group of eight flew into the air and headed toward their residence.

……

Wang Jianqiang did not know what had happened in the outside world.

When the eight women returned, he was still in seclusion.

A Five-Element Spiritual Root cultivator has vast Spiritual Power, far beyond what an ordinary person can compare to.

However, precisely because the Spiritual Power is so vast, the difficulty for a Five-Element Spiritual Root cultivator to break through also reaches an astonishing level.

To form a Nascent Soul, the amount of Soul Power required is enough to make an ordinary person despair.

Although his Soul Power had already reached thirty times that of an ordinary Golden Core Perfection cultivator.

It was ten times the Soul Power required for a normal person to form a Nascent Soul!

But the process of forming the Nascent Soul was not as easy as imagined.

The progress was quite slow.

It took a full three months to successfully complete the Nascent Soul formation.

In the dim Cultivation Room, Wang Jianqiang sat cross-legged.

His eyes were closed, and his consciousness had already arrived within his body.

In his dantian, the Golden Core had already vanished.

Replacing it was a palm-sized Nascent Soul.

The Nascent Soul's appearance was exactly the same as Wang Jianqiang's.

The Five-Element Power of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth flowed naturally over its body, evolving into a Five-Colored Feather Garment draped upon it, looking incredibly miraculous.

He introspected at the Five-Colored Feather Garment on the Nascent Soul, feeling a wave of astonishment in his heart.

The Five-Element Spiritual Root was indeed special; the Nascent Soul condensed from it was unexpectedly different from the rest.

It actually came with its own skin.

An ordinary person's Nascent Soul can also condense clothing.

However, such clothing is merely formed from one's own Spiritual Power, and its main purpose is nothing more than to cover the body, with limited defensive capabilities.

Yet, this Five-Colored Feather Garment was completely different.

The Five-Colored Feather Garment was not condensed by his subjective will, but rather evolved on its own as his Nascent Soul resonated with the Five-Element Power between heaven and earth.

He could clearly sense that this Five-Colored Feather Garment was incredibly profound.

Within it, the Five-Element Power surged endlessly, possessing astonishing defensive power.

And this was still while he had yet to undergo Tribulation Transcendence, and the Nascent Soul had not yet fully solidified.

Otherwise, the defensive power of this Five-Colored Feather Garment would be even stronger!

After condensing the Nascent Soul.

He could perceive that a force had locked onto him from the void.

This force was precisely the Nascent Soul Tribulation.

Even if he did not actively draw down the Heavenly Tribulation, it would certainly descend within three hours at most.

He prepared everything needed for Tribulation Transcendence that he had long since readied.

Then, with a thought, he arrived atop a mountain peak.

He controlled the newly condensed Nascent Soul within his body to release its aura.

As his Nascent Soul aura spread out.

This world seemed to suddenly freeze.

The stream water stopped flowing.

The breeze dissipated.

The slightly swaying grass and leaves also suddenly became still.

The world was terrifyingly silent.

A moment later.

The appearance of a mass of dark clouds broke the silence of the world.

As the first mass of dark clouds rolled out, it was like knocking over a domino.

Masses of dark clouds appeared rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they filled the sky.

The world instantly turned dim.

A destructive aura unique to the Heavenly Tribulation descended.

This destructive aura revealed a supreme Artistic Conception that despised all living beings and destroyed all things.

It was capable of triggering the fear in the heart of the one undergoing the tribulation from the very root.

For those whose will was not firm, if their minds were shaken by this Heavenly Tribulation aura, the Heavenly Tribulation would take advantage of the opening.

It would induce the deepest emotions within their hearts, transforming them into an Inner Demon.

At that time.

On top of the Nine-Fold Lightning Tribulation, the Nascent Soul Tribulation would add an extra, terrifying Inner Demon tribulation!

This Inner Demon tribulation targeted the mental weaknesses of the Cultivator.

Its level of danger was far above that of the Nine-Fold Lightning Tribulation.

Once triggered, it was almost impossible to survive.

Wang Jianqiang took a deep breath and looked straight into the sky.

The expression on his face did not waver in the slightest.

Did this bit of pressure think it could shake his mind?

Not a chance.

Crackle~

Just at this moment.

Within the Tribulation Cloud, dense snakes of electricity suddenly leaped out.

Wang Jianqiang's expression tightened, staring fixedly at the electric snakes on the Tribulation Cloud.

These electric snakes were unexpectedly not of an ordinary color, but a dark red!

Dark Red Tribulation Lightning appeared right from the start!!!
