Chapter 416: Fifth Grade Zombie
Sixth Grade World Master Realm, Seventh Grade World Realm, Eighth-Grade Creation Realm; only when a cultivator reaches the Eighth Grade can they create new life species. Meng Yifan's current cultivation realm is Sixth Grade High, still two major realms away from the Eighth-Grade Creation Realm.
Meng Yifan's current realm is not yet capable of creating new species, but in the process of transforming the world, the fusion of the nine elements of law formed a Great Perfection, allowing him to glimpse the process of the cycle of life. This has an inspirational effect on his evolution of the world, and even his future creation of new species.
He Dongliu's Five Elements World continued to be transformed; many severely damaged parts were squeezed out of the world barrier and drifted into the vast Universe Sea, while the remaining essence was reorganized by Meng Yifan, who added the power of Yin, Yang, Wind, and Thunder laws, making it unrecognizable.
It was precisely during this reorganization that the mark left by He Dongliu was erased; even if He Dongliu were to be reborn and return, he could never snatch control of this world from Meng Yifan's hands.
During the process of transforming the world, time passed like a white horse galloping past a crevice; one day, two days, three days—soon three days had passed, and the earth shook and the mountains swayed as the rumbling transformation process came to an end.
The transformed world shrank by half overall, and the dense cracks in the sky were all completely repaired; the world, which had been dilapidated and on the verge of collapse at any moment, became healed and whole, as if reborn.
"This is my world." Meng Yifan opened his eyes and looked at the newborn world as if looking at his own child, feeling incredibly excited.
This world is still incomplete, considered a Nine-System World Prototype, but by possessing this world, Meng Yifan is a true Sixth Grade powerhouse. Within this world, he is the Creator; his words become law, and he can mobilize the power of the entire world to suppress strong enemies.
"The energy of the Five Elements World Source is exhausted; I must replenish the energy as soon as possible. Furthermore, to perfect the Nine-System World, I must find the world sources for Yin, Yang, Wind, and Thunder."
"Moreover, to reach the perfection of the nine elements, these four elemental world sources must be comparable to the Five Elements World Source. However, the Five Elements World Source is comparable to a Spirit Treasure. I have many Dharma Treasures in my hands now, but not even a single Spirit Treasure; where am I to find Spirit Treasures of the Yin, Yang, Wind, and Thunder attributes to serve as world sources?"
Meng Yifan shook his head and stopped thinking about it; when the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a road, and future matters can be discussed in the future.
"Eh! Thunder Tribulation!" Meng Yifan sensed something and looked toward a hilltop, where Meng Shuangdao was surrounded by Yin-Yang Qi, his cultivation fluctuation having broken through to the Fifth Grade Lower Tier. In an instant, wind and clouds surged above his head, dark clouds gathered, and lightning and thunder roared, as if a Thunder Tribulation were about to descend.
It was just that Meng Yifan's Thunder Element law had only been comprehended to the Fourth Grade, so the Thunder Tribulation formed in the sky was at most equivalent to an external Fourth-Grade Thunder Tribulation.
After Meng Shuangdao broke through to the Fifth Grade Lower Tier, his body changed significantly. First, his originally stiff body regained vitality and became similar to a living person; even his originally dark and cold cheeks gained a touch of ruddiness. This was because he had comprehended the Yin-Yang Law; with the fusion of Yin and Yang, where Yin reaches its extreme, Yang is born, and a trace of Yang Qi was born within his Zombie Body.
"Should I let the Thunder Tribulation descend?" Meng Yifan is the master of this world, and he could order the Thunder Tribulation in the sky to dissipate.
However, the Thunder Tribulation is very important for a cultivator; it is an indispensable link for tempering the body. Without the Thunder Tribulation to temper the body, the foundation will not be stable, which is very disadvantageous for future breakthroughs.
Furthermore, unless Meng Shuangdao never leaves this world, once he enters the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty World, the Thunder Tribulation will still descend, and the longer it is delayed, the more terrifying the descending Thunder Tribulation will be.
"Thunder Tribulation, descend!" Meng Yifan gave the order.
"Boom—Crack!" With a loud noise, a bolt of thunder descended from the sky and struck the top of Meng Shuangdao's head. However, this thunderbolt lacked sufficient power and only scorched Meng Shuangdao's skin, causing minor flesh wounds; with the healing ability of a Zombie Body, these injuries healed in the blink of an eye.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" After nine consecutive Thunder Tribulations, the dark clouds dissipated, and the Thunder Tribulation ended.
These Thunder Tribulations were insufficient in power, and Meng Shuangdao would still be struck by lightning when he reached the outside world. However, having been struck by the Fourth-Grade Thunder Tribulation in Meng Yifan's world in advance, his body had already undergone one round of thunder tempering, making it much easier to withstand the Fifth-Grade Thunder Tribulation when he went out.
Watching Meng Shuangdao undergo the tribulation, Meng Yifan thought of the battalion of ghost soldiers and ghost generals under Zhang Butou; they had all obtained good fortune in this world and had upgraded overall, so they also needed to undergo the baptism of the Thunder Tribulation.
Ghost soldiers, ghost generals, and zombies are all creatures of the Yin Attribute. They should have returned to dust and earth and entered the cycle of reincarnation again, but they embarked on the path of cultivation, defying Heaven to change their fate, which is not tolerated by the rules of Heaven and Earth.
Therefore, after they advance, the Thunder Tribulation will be very terrifying; this is the rules of Heaven and Earth trying to wipe them out.
However, Heaven does not cut off all paths; of the fifty Great Daos, forty-nine are derived, leaving one line of survival.
Creatures like ghost soldiers, ghost generals, zombies, and vampires also have the possibility of advancing, but their path of cultivation is much more difficult than that of ordinary cultivators.
"Zhang Butou, all of you, come out and undergo the Thunder Tribulation." Meng Yifan held the Ghost Head Blade and gave it a shake, releasing all the ghost soldiers and ghost generals.
Then, with a thought from Meng Yifan, dark clouds gathered in the sky once again, and bolts of Thunder Tribulation descended from the sky, bombarding them wildly.
"Ah! Ah! It hurts!"
"Wuwu... my body is cooked by the electricity."
"It hurts too much! I'm going to be pained to death."
"Wang San, what are you roaring for? You were already dead to begin with."
The ghost soldiers and ghost generals were struck until they were Ghost Crying Wolf Howling; some ghost soldiers were struck to the point of almost having their souls scattered. This kind of pain was even more painful than an ordinary person being thrown into a frying pan; it could truly make one wish they were dead.
However, this is a process that the ghost soldiers and ghost generals must experience; no matter how painful or uncomfortable it is, they must endure it.
The good thing is that this is Meng Yifan's world, and he is the controller of the world's laws. When the Thunder Tribulation descends, Meng Yifan can control the intensity of the Thunder Tribulation according to the physical condition of the ghost soldiers and ghost generals, which gives them a process of adaptation and will not actually strike them to death all at once.
In the time that followed, not only were the ghost soldiers and ghost generals experiencing the Thunder Tribulation, but Meng Yifan himself also used the Thunder Tribulation to temper his body. When he entered the Secret Realm World, he was only a Fifth Grade High cultivator, but now he had broken through to the Sixth Grade High; when he returned to the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty World, his Thunder Tribulation would be even more terrifying.
Therefore, Meng Yifan adapting to the power of the Thunder Tribulation in his own world in advance would be helpful for him when he undergoes the tribulation in the outside world.
It was just that in Meng Yifan's world, the power of the Thunder Tribulation was only equivalent to a Fourth-Grade Thunder Tribulation, which was too weak; to him, it was like a tickle, but it was better than nothing. If he was struck for a longer time, it would always have some effect.
One day later, the Thunder Tribulation dissipated. It was not that Meng Yifan did not want to continue striking them, but that the energy of this world was about to be exhausted; if he continued to strike, he would only be consuming the power of the World Source, which was not worth it.
