Chapter 975: The Abnormal Heavenly Tribulation

The moment this Tribulation Lightning appeared, Mu Lingxi's expression became extremely grave.

She folded her hands, her ten fingers continuously shifting through seal techniques.

"Reincarnation True Body, merge—"

Following a soft shout from her lips, a gray, hazy aura instantly enveloped her Three Lives Body.

The next moment.

The gray light dissipated.

Mu Lingxi's Three Lives Body had already merged into one.

She looked up at the sky, her long, pitch-black hair, which seemed as if it could drip ink, dancing backward.

A pair of pitch-black eyes, deep as an Abyss and seemingly capable of swallowing light, stared fixedly at the dazzling Tribulation Lightning that was already approaching.

In her gaze, there was not the slightest bit of fear or worry.

There was only absolute calmness and indifference.

It was as if nothing in the world could cause even the slightest ripple in these eyes.

Her slender, delicate palm lifted gently.

She pointed a finger.

A stream of water emerged, transforming into a long blade; the water forming the long blade swirled rapidly.

If one were to sense it carefully, one would discover that the so-called water was not pure water.

Rather, it was liquefied from the perfect fusion of the power of lightning and the power of water.

Upon the Water Blade, the Life and Death Artistic Conception permeated.

The swirling speed of the lightning-liquid forming the Water Blade became increasingly terrifying, and the sharpness radiating from the Water Blade increased significantly as a result.

Boom—

The next moment.

The Water Blade collided with the Tribulation Lightning.

Endless shattered Tribulation Lightning scattered, instantly shrouding the land for a hundred miles around.

The earth shook violently, mountain ranges collapsed, and rivers ceased to flow.

With the descent of the final Tribulation Lightning, the Tribulation Cloud in the sky seemed to have exhausted its last bit of strength and gradually dissipated.

After the Tribulation Cloud dissipated.

Wang Jianqiang, who had been waiting outside the range covered by the Tribulation Cloud, flew toward the center of the Tribulation Cloud at the first opportunity.

Although the Heavenly Tribulation had dispersed.

The aura of destruction that had descended upon this world along with the Tribulation Lightning still remained, permeating the air, everywhere.

This aura possessed strong aggression.

If an ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivator were to enter this area, they would most likely have their vitality extinguished by this aura and perish here.

Although this destruction aura was constantly dissipating.

Given this rate of dissipation, if it were not dispersed by human intervention, it would likely take over a hundred years to vanish completely.

It could be foreseen.

From this point on, for a very long time, this place would become a Forbidden Land in the eyes of ordinary cultivators.

However, although this destruction aura permeating the world was strong, it could not affect Wang Jianqiang.

In fact, because Wang Jianqiang had already comprehended the Destruction Power.

Being in this world filled with the aura of destruction, he instead felt a sense of comfort.

A moment later.

Wang Jianqiang arrived at the core of the Heavenly Tribulation.

He looked down.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but rubble.

Clatter—

Suddenly.

A small hill piled up with rubble exploded, and a figure shot out from within.

Seeing this figure, Wang Jianqiang let out a long sigh of relief, a relaxed smile appearing on his face.

Although Mu Lingxi's face was pale and her aura weak.

By the looks of it, her mental state was still quite good.

"Hurry and absorb the Creation Power within your body to treat your injuries and stabilize your newborn primordial spirit; I will guard you."

The Creation Power after a Heavenly Tribulation, besides all possessing powerful healing effects, has different functions depending on the case.

For instance, the Creation Power after the Nascent Soul Tribulation has the effect of shaping a Spirit Body.

And the Creation Power after the Transformation God Tribulation has the effect of refining the primordial spirit.

A primordial spirit not baptized by Creation Power cannot last; only after being baptized by Creation Power can the primordial spirit be permanently solidified, and only then can a cultivator become a true Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Mu Lingxi nodded.

She sat cross-legged on the spot.

Afterward, she began to absorb the Creation Power within her body.

Time passed slowly.

Six months later.

Mu Lingxi's eyes, which had been tightly shut, finally opened, and a powerful pressure unique to a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator permeated the area.

Even someone as strong as Wang Jianqiang felt a sense of oppression from it.

"Senior Brother, I have successfully broken through."

Mu Lingxi looked at Wang Jianqiang, a flash of joy appearing on her pretty face, and with a flicker of her figure, she hung onto Wang Jianqiang, "On such a joyous day, shouldn't we celebrate?"

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment and nodded solemnly, "That is only right."

Having said that, he moved his mind and pulled Mu Lingxi into the Spirit God Ring.

Inside the Spirit God Ring.

Xiaobai, who was cultivating, seemed to sense something and opened his eyes.

When he saw Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi enter the Spirit God Ring space together, he curled his lips, then transformed into a wisp of blue smoke and submerged into the Ice Coffin.

……

Ten days later.

Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi left the Spirit God Ring space and returned to the Outside the Realm.

"Lingxi, guard me."

After greeting Mu Lingxi, Wang Jianqiang sat cross-legged in the void and began to condense his Nascent Soul.

When he was at the Golden Core Stage, his Soul Power had reached thirty-three times the Heavenly Dao Limit.

His foundation was even deeper than Mu Lingxi's.

The difficulty of condensing the Nascent Soul was even greater.

It took two months to successfully condense the Nascent Soul.

After the Nascent Soul appeared, an aura unique to the Spirit Transformation Stage erupted from his body and soared into the sky.

The world instantly turned dim.

An indescribable energy permeated this world.

Without any warning.

A dark red vortex instantly appeared in the sky.

The moment the dark red vortex appeared, its radius exceeded a thousand miles.

At the same time.

Around the periphery of the vortex, clouds like fresh blood suddenly emerged.

Without any process, the Tribulation completed its brewing step directly, reaching a radius of three thousand three hundred miles!

At the same time.

Above Wang Jianqiang's head, in the center of the Tribulation Cloud vortex, an ancient palace appeared.

With the appearance of this palace, the terrifying aura that had permeated the world due to the Tribulation surged.

Mu Lingxi's expression changed.

She did not expect her Senior Brother's Spirit Transformation Tribulation to be so bizarre.

Not only did it condense instantly without any brewing process, but a mysterious building even appeared within the Tribulation.

She only took one look before immediately snapping back to her senses.

Because at this moment, a terrifying will that made her scalp tingle had locked onto her.

This was the will of the Tribulation, and also a warning.

If she continued to stay within the range of the Tribulation, she would be locked onto by the Tribulation as well.

She had already reached the Spirit Transformation Stage; if a Tribulation were to descend now, it would no longer be a Spirit Transformation Tribulation.

It would be an Integration Tribulation.

Once this Tribulation was drawn down, she would undoubtedly die!

This thought flashed through her mind, and then she directly performed Instant Movement, escaping the range covered by the Tribulation.

Under the Tribulation, only Wang Jianqiang remained alone.

Just as Wang Jianqiang stared directly at the Tribulation Cloud in the sky, preparing to welcome the descent of the Tribulation Lightning.

In the center of the Tribulation Cloud, that ancient palace suddenly shook.

The blood-colored Tribulation with a radius of three thousand three hundred miles instantly faded in color.

The power of the Tribulation Lightning permeating the Tribulation Cloud was completely extracted, and like a long whale sucking water, it gathered from all directions at an astonishing speed, and in the blink of an eye, it all poured into the palace.

Seeing this scene.

Wang Jianqiang's expression tightened.

A Tribulation Mutation?

His heart felt heavy, but he did not feel too surprised.

Back when he was Outside the Realm and recultivated back to the Nascent Soul Stage, the Nascent Soul Tribulation he underwent had also mutated.

He was somewhat mentally prepared for this mutation of the Spirit Transformation Tribulation.

Under his gaze.

In the sky, that ancient palace began to glow with a faint light after devouring the power of the Tribulation Lightning.

The next moment.

Streams of light detached from the ancient palace and descended toward the ground.

In the blink of an eye, they transformed into eighteen Humanoid Tribulation Lightning.
