Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The news was not spread outside; it circulated only among the sect's high level.

Core figures such as Sect Master Chao Jin and Great Elder Xuan Yan attached extreme importance to this; a genius with all five elements is encountered once in a thousand years. If Xu Ping'an can successfully condense a heaven-grade golden core, he will inevitably become the leading figure of the Dongting Immortal Sect's new generation.

You must know that currently new generation disciples are scarce, and the entering the world plan has caused the loss of quite a few disciples; a leading figure is urgently needed to boost morale.

Xu Ping'an's breakthrough concerns the immortal sect's future.

Therefore, Sect Master Chao Jin ordered the seven great immortal peaks to provide full assistance.

Tiexue Peak provided a top-grade gold spiritual weapon, the "Po Sha Spear," incomparably sharp.

Shuixian Peak sent a top-grade water spiritual weapon, the "Bi Shui Pearl," which specifically restrains fire attribute.

Qingmu Peak produced spring water from the Life Pool, which can repair injuries during tribulation crossing.

Chi Huo Peak presented a top-grade fire talisman, the "Burning Heaven Talisman," able to assist in attack.

Jin Gang Peak provided a passing tribulation set, armed from head to foot, with astonishing defense.

Hou Tu Peak sent a top-grade earth spiritual pill, the "Gathering Yuan Pill," which can stabilize cultivation.

Xuanming Peak produced a "Soul-Suppressing Jade," able to resist thunder tribulation and protect the divine soul.

Besides this, the immortal sect also prepared dozens of types of top-grade spirit pills and over a hundred top-grade spirit talismans for Xu Ping'an, even mobilizing the spiritual array power of the seven great immortal peaks, preparing to form a protective net during Xu Ping'an's tribulation crossing to assist him in resisting the thunder tribulation.

All preparations complete, Xu Ping'an arrived at Xingqiong Hall.

By rights, this is where the sect's high level discuss matters; disciples cannot come.

But this time, not only was special grace granted, even those who could come all came.

Such as Sect Master Chao Jin, Great Elder Xuan Yan, Yin-Yang Venerable Li Wudao... the seven great immortal peaks, at least five people came, and all were peak masters.

Xu Zhangqing was conspicuously among them; he actively sought out his youngest son: "Ping'an, these are the tribulation-crossing items Father prepared for you, including several Xuan Yuan Golden Light Talismans.

Regardless of whether they're needed or not, better to have them and not need them than need them and not have them."

Originally, he had prepared a great many things.

Whether top-grade spirit tools, spirit talismans, or spirit pills, almost everything was available.

But in the end he underestimated the immortal sect's regard for Xu Ping'an; he didn't expect everyone to be this supportive.

Xu Ping'an reached out to receive them, simultaneously saying with a smile: "Thank you, Father!"

Xu Zhangqing looked at him with a solemn expression, admonishing: "Crossing tribulation is no joke; you must treat it seriously, absolutely do not be careless.

The five elements' mutual restraint is your greatest reliance; remember to employ it flexibly."

Xu Ping'an nodded forcefully: "I know!"

Xu Zhangqing hesitated a moment, then continued: "Your mother is on her way here."

Xu Ping'an said seriously: "Father, your son will not let you down!"

……

……

Lead-gray tribulation clouds stained the sky like ink, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was drawn tight.

Five-colored thunder light tumbled within the cloud layers; the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth intertwined, emitting a terrifying pressure.

This is the five elements turbulent lightning unique to breaking through with all five elements complete; its power far surpasses ordinary thunder tribulation.

Xu Ping'an wore the Jingang Armor; the silver-bright armor plates reflected the dark light of the tribulation clouds.

The Po Sha Spear in his hand pointed diagonally downward; the spear tip coiled with a wisp of faint five-colored spiritual power.

Above his head the Bi Shui Pearl slowly rotated; a layer of blue water curtain thin as cicada wings descended, protecting his whole person tightly and securely.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, spread his spiritual sense, and quietly awaited the thunder tribulation's arrival.

Chao Jin reminded: "First tribulation lightning, five elements turbulent lightning!"

Bang!

The first bolt of turbulent lightning struck down at this moment without any warning.

It was crimson red like molten iron, carrying flames fierce enough to melt metal and stone — precisely the fire-melts-gold single-attribute restraint turbulent lightning, accurately locking onto Xu Ping'an's newly completed metal spirit root.

The lightning column was thicker than an arm; as it fell the air was scorched with a sizzling sound, leaving a distorted heat-wave trajectory along its path.

"Coming at just the right time."

Xu Ping'an's eyelashes lifted; his wrist shook lightly, the Po Sha Spear emerging like a spirit snake from its cave, a condensed white spear radiance shooting through the air, accurately colliding with the crimson lightning.

Metal restricts wood, fire restricts metal.

He used his metal spirit root to drive the spear radiance, not meeting it head-on, but guiding the lightning's power through the spear body.

Metal can guide lightning, just right for dispelling the fire-melted gold's sharp edge.

"He can actually use gold to guide lightning? This comprehension!"

"Others all passively endure, yet he can actively guide — the bearing of a genius!"

"I have a premonition, our immortal sect will..."

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked beyond measure.

Boom—

The sound of metal and iron clashing echoed through the clouds; the crimson lightning instantly shattered into a sky full of fire sparks.

The residual heat waves struck the water curtain, stirring only a fine ripple; not even the Jingang Armor's luster changed in the slightest.

Xu Ping'an did not move a muscle; five elements spiritual power circulated around his body: "As expected, I withstood it."

Xu Zhangqing observed from afar, his tense shoulders relaxing slightly.

Li Wudao stroked his beard and chuckled lightly: "A genius with all Five Elements complete, backed by the foundation of the Seven Great Immortal Peaks, who also understands how to apply Five Elements Theory — a Single Attribute Thunder Tribulation is naturally nothing to speak of!"

Three Breaths had just passed when the Second Layer of Heavenly Tribulation had already condensed into form within the Tribulation Cloud.

This Time the Thunder Light was even more abundant, the pressure even heavier.

Red-Blue Lightning intertwined and coiled — precisely Fire Wood Dual Attribute Turbulent Lightning.

Fire Restricts Metal, Wood Restricts Earth — simultaneously restraining Xu Ping'an's Wood and Earth Spiritual Roots.

The power of this Thunder Tribulation surged several times over the first; the Lightning Column was thick as a water bucket, crashing down with the momentum of Burning Mountain Boiling Sea, the air along its path scorched into twisting and deforming.

A sharp glint flashed in Xu Ping'an's eyes; his whole person did not retreat but advanced instead: "Fire Wood Tribulation?

Just right to counter it with Water and Earth!"

His Left Foot stepped forward a Half-Step, the Spear shaft held horizontally before his chest, his Right Hand Fingertip seals changing rapidly.

The Bi Shui Pearl atop his head instantly swelled to Three Zhang; a blue Water Curtain like an inverted giant bowl covered himself while surging out Vast Sky Water Mist.

Water Restricts Fire — this is the Bi Shui Pearl's core marvelous use.

Vast Sky Water Mist collided with the Fire Thunder power in the Thunder Tribulation; "sizzle" sounds rang out in succession, countless White Steam rushed straight to the Horizon, the Fire Attribute Thunder power in the Thunder Tribulation instantly suppressed by more than half.

At the Same Time, Xu Ping'an's Left Hand swiftly fished out an earth-yellow Spirit Talisman from his Storage Bag.

This, was precisely the Gather Earth Talisman.

With a surge of Spiritual Power, the Talisman ignited and exploded; Earth Qi began to surge.

Soon it condensed before his body into a thick Earth Shield, just blocking the Wood Attribute Thunder Light attempting to penetrate the Water Mist.

"Break!"

Xu Ping'an shouted low; the Po Sha Spear stabbed out fiercely, Spear Radiance wrapped in dense Metal Spiritual Power, precisely striking the lightning core weakened by Water and Earth power.

Boom!

With a huge sound, the Dual-Color Thunder Tribulation collapsed in response, transforming into Vast Sky sparks scattering down, sizzling on the Water Curtain, soon dissipating without trace.

Xu Ping'an's Jingang Armor merely dimmed for a moment at the instant the Thunder Tribulation shattered, then recovered its brilliant luster.

He casually fished out a round Gathering Yuan Pill from his Storage Bag, tossed it into his mouth; the Pill melted on entry, pure Spiritual Power instantly surging through his whole body, even the bit of Spiritual Power consumed by activating the Talisman just now was replenished.

Then he raised his eyes to gaze at the rolling Tribulation Cloud, Combat Intent in his eyes even stronger.

Sect Master Chao Jin applauded in praise: "Good young hero!

Applying Five Elements Theory with Lian Huo Chun Qing mastery — Dongting Immortal Sect has successors!"

Another Three Breaths passed, and the Third Layer of Heavenly Tribulation condensed into form.

Red-Green-Blue Three-Color Lightning coiled and rolled — precisely Fire Wood Water Triple Attribute Turbulent Lightning.

Fire Restricts Metal, Wood Restricts Earth, Water Restricts Fire — simultaneously restraining Metal, Wood, Water Three Spirit Roots.

The Lightning Column thick as a millstone, crashing down with bone-eroding chill and scorching high temperature; the surrounding air was sucked dry, suffocating.

Xu Ping'an's Divine Sense swept over the Tribulation Cloud, instantly perceiving the Turbulent Lightning attributes; the corner of his mouth hooked into a smile: "Fire Wood Water?

Just right to counter with Metal Earth Fire!"

His Fingertip seals changed again; this time he did not rush to activate the Bi Shui Pearl, but first fished out the Burning Heaven Talisman of Chi Huo Peak.

The Burning Heaven Talisman ignited and exploded; soaring flames rushed skyward — not attacking directly, but contending with the Wood Attribute in the Thunder Tribulation, luring it out.

Immediately after, Xu Ping'an activated the Gather Earth Talisman; Earth Qi surged again, forming countless Earth Spikes, precisely piercing the lured-out Wood Attribute Turbulent Lightning, instantly annihilating it.

At the Same Time, the Water Attribute Thunder power in the Thunder Tribulation lost Wood Attribute support, its power greatly reduced.

Only then did Xu Ping'an activate the Bi Shui Pearl; the blue Water Curtain fused with the Water Spirit Power in his body — not hard blocking, but Water Guides Water, guiding out the Water Attribute Thunder power, then suppressing it with the Gather Earth Talisman.

Until the end, the remaining Fire Attribute Thunder power was no longer worth fearing.

Xu Ping'an's wrist shook lightly; the Po Sha Spear's Spear Radiance connected in strikes, scattering the residual Fire Thunder power one by one.

This Time, a fine crack emerged on the Jingang Armor.

Xu Ping'an's eyebrows raised slightly, yet he did not take it to heart; instead he took out the Ice Heart Jade Pot Wine from his Storage Bag and drank a mouthful.

Coolness surged through his whole body; damaged Meridians rapidly repaired, Spiritual Power also recovered as before.

Xu Zhangqing opened his mouth, his heart filled with myriad emotions: "Your tribulation crossing, my tribulation crossing — they don't seem the same!"
