Chapter 290: Fifth-Rank Infatuation Gu, Eyes of Peach Blossom

Boom—

At this very moment, the tribulation clouds above the sky seemed to be at the end of their tether.

Having vented for seven days and seven nights, descending one after another, the Thunder Tribulations had exhausted a vast amount of the clouds' energy.

The final bolt of Thunder Tribulation seemed to be delayed in descending.

It felt as if it were brewing a final strike.

"It's coming."

A Cold Glow appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes, and he was fully focused; although this was the final Thunder Tribulation, he did not lower his guard, for he could not afford the slightest relaxation until he had completely passed it.

Otherwise, it was very likely that all his previous efforts would be wasted.

Thud!

Just at this moment, thunder roared in the sky, and countless cloud layers rotated like a black hole; countless bolts of thunderous power gathered together, and within the depths of the clouds, the Thunder Tribulation flickered with electric light.

Suddenly, countless bolts of Thunder Tribulation converged, condensing into one, as if a high and mighty God of Thunder were holding a thunder spear, filled with a destructive aura.

Whoosh!

A purple Thunder Tribulation as thick as a water barrel descended from the sky; it was actually more terrifying than the combined power of the dozens of previous Thunder Tribulations, its might comparable to a nuclear explosion.

"Kill!"

But Zhou Sui was undaunted; after seven days and seven nights of tempering, a massive amount of Dragon Elephant Bloodline surged within his body, and now his essence, energy, and spirit had reached an unprecedented level, as if he had completely merged with the Dragon Elephant Bloodline and mastered the Dragon Elephant Power.

In an instant, he threw a punch into the air, seemingly gathering the True Dragon Power and Divine Elephant Power, erupting with terrifying fist force to collide with it; fighting violence with violence, he instantly shattered this purple Thunder Tribulation completely.

Immediately, this purple Thunder Tribulation transformed into countless tiny bolts of lightning, descending upon his body like raindrops.

But they were all blocked by the Divine Elephant Barrier on his body, crackling and popping.

It was as if his body were wearing a protective suit.

No lightning could harm his body.

Boom—

After pouring out the final purple Thunder Tribulation, the countless tribulation clouds above the sky no longer had any Thunder Tribulation energy, and the black tribulation clouds covering tens of thousands of miles actually dissipated rapidly at this very moment.

Clearly, the Thunder Tribulation also knew it could do nothing to this person undergoing the tribulation, so it had to dissipate reluctantly.

The originally dark sky now returned to clarity, and sunlight fell from the sky, tearing through the infinite Darkness.

"Finally passed the Triple Lightning Tribulation."

Zhou Sui was very excited; although he was now severely injured, covered in bloodstains and wounds, he felt that the blood and Qi within his body were more vigorous than ever before.

He could even fight for another three hundred rounds.

Boom—

In an instant, he sensed that from above the sky, deep within the tribulation clouds, clusters of massive Creation Qi seemed to descend, pouring onto his body like raindrops.

"Creation Qi."

"Is this the Creation Qi after passing the Thunder Tribulation?"

Zhou Sui's eyes lit up immediately; he could sense that the Creation Qi he had obtained this time was dozens of times more than what Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi had obtained previously.

However, this was only natural, as the power of this Triple Lightning Tribulation was also dozens of times that of a Single Lightning Tribulation.

Effort and reward are directly proportional.

Swish—

Standing in mid-air, he circulated the Gu God Scripture, his body seemingly turning into a huge black hole, generating an incomparable suction force; strands of Creation Qi were drawn in, one after another, merging into his body.

At this moment, he felt as if his body were bathing in a hot spring, feeling comfortable all over.

The dense scars originally on his skin were nourished by the Creation Qi and actually healed one after another.

Even the injuries to his internal organs, meridians, and so on, were all healing.

Clearly, the Creation Qi had infinite wonderful uses.

It was not just as simple as improving his cultivation; it could also help heal the injuries on his body and enhance his potential.

"This is amazing."

Zhou Sui was incredibly excited; clearly, this was the great fortune after passing the Thunder Tribulation, as well as a gift from heaven and earth.

As strands of Creation Qi merged into his body, he felt the Nascent Soul deep within his Dantian Qi Sea absorbing them greedily as well.

This tiny Nascent Soul seemed to have eaten a great tonic, growing rapidly.

The Nascent Soul Dharma Power within his body also received a geometric increase.

The Creation Qi swallowed this time alone was probably comparable to decades of bitter cultivation.

One could imagine the benefits of this Creation Qi for a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

…………

At this moment, Lin Yazhu, Chu Dieyi, and the others nearby naturally saw this scene as well, and each of them was overjoyed.

They knew that their husband had successfully passed the Thunder Tribulation.

From now on, he was a true Nascent Soul Cultivator.

With such cultivation, even looking across the entire Canglan Sea, he was among the most top-tier existences.

"There is actually so much Creation Qi."

"It seems we will be able to form a Golden Core soon."

Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyan, and Xia Jingyan were all immensely joyful; they were also nearby, swallowing the strands of Creation Qi scattered around, and their own cultivation had received a huge boost.

In almost a moment's time, their cultivation had advanced to the realm of Foundation Establishment Perfection.

It was estimated that after practicing for a while longer, they could attempt to form a Golden Core.

"I didn't expect that after my husband passed the tribulation, so much Creation Qi would be scattered."

"I have finally broken through to the Golden Core Late Stage."

Leng Yuexi was very excited.

She had been stuck at the Golden Core Middle Stage for some time, unable to break through.

Now, after absorbing this Creation Qi, it was as if everything fell into place; she broke through the bottleneck with ease, instantly elevating to the Golden Core Late Stage, and the Golden Core Dharma Power within her body also increased significantly.

"I suspect that what my husband experienced was a Triple Lightning Tribulation."

"Since this tribulation was so terrifying, the amount of Creation Qi it birthed was naturally immense."

"You could say that this time, we were the ones who benefited."

Shen Biqian, along with Chuntao and the others, as Golden Core Late Stage Cultivators, also saw their cultivation advance by leaps and bounds after absorbing this Creation Qi, all of them promoting to the Golden Core Perfection realm.

It could be said that the energy of this Creation Qi saved them decades of bitter cultivation.

"This is a fortuitous encounter gifted by heaven and earth."

"Aside from a Nascent Soul Tribulation, it is truly too difficult to obtain Creation Qi."

"If we could obtain a large amount of Creation Qi, I fear it wouldn't take long for us to promote to the Nascent Soul Perfection realm."

Lin Yazhu, Chu Dieyi, and Taohua Shangren were also absorbing the Creation Qi nearby.

The Nascent Soul Dharma Power within their bodies was also increasing at a geometric rate.

The effect was even greater than consuming a Fourth-Tier Treasure Pill.

Of course, such opportunities are relatively rare.

How many Golden Core Cultivators can even reach the third stage of the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation?

Most Golden Core Cultivators cannot even pass the first stage, failing directly at the Shatter Core Form Infant stage.

They cannot reach the third stage at all.

To a certain extent, the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation is actually the easiest to pass.

As long as one prepares numerous Dharma Treasures and items for the tribulation, there is an eighty percent or higher probability of surviving the Lightning Tribulation.

At this very moment, in Xianxia City.

Many Cultivators also noticed the tribulation clouds above the sky rapidly dissipating, returning to clarity; they finally saw the long-lost sunlight, and the air felt exceptionally fresh, which greatly lifted their spirits.

They immediately realized what had happened, each of their faces revealing expressions of excitement, shock, and joy.

"Has the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation finally ended? I wonder how Lord Zhou is doing now; did he successfully survive the tribulation?" Some Cultivators were very curious about Zhou Sui's current situation.

Unfortunately, this was the internal situation of the Xianxia Sect.

Aside from core members, no one could know what the tribulation was like inside.

"I think it's a bit precarious; that tribulation cloud previously covered tens of thousands of miles, it was simply an unprecedented disaster, and almost every day there was the rumbling of thunder and lightning, which was terrifying."

"To be honest, I never imagined the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation would be so terrifying; fortunately, we were not at the center of the disaster, otherwise, any single bolt of lightning would have been enough to turn us into dust."

"It was indeed too terrifying, simply beyond imagination; how did previous Nascent Soul Cultivators survive such a terrifying Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation? Can anyone really survive it?"

"No, no, no; in fact, the Lightning Tribulation of ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators is not this terrifying. It is only because this is Zhou Sui's Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation that it is so frightening; this has already surpassed the power of a normal Nascent Soul tribulation."

"Could it be that this Zhou Sui did something heinous to make the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation become so terrifying?"

Numerous Cultivators discussed it heatedly.

Over the past few days, this area had been shrouded by tribulation clouds, and Xianxia City had fallen into Darkness, with flashes of lightning and thunder appearing from time to time, making countless Cultivators tremble with fear.

It was as if they were beneath a Thunder Sea.

This period of time allowed them to truly and deeply feel the terror of the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation.

It also let them know what kind of terrifying existence a Cultivator who can survive the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation truly is.

Nascent Soul Cultivators can become the overlords of a sea region by relying on power that far exceeds ordinary people, akin to that of gods.

"I have already received specific intelligence from the Xianxia Sect."

"Elder Zhou has already successfully survived the Nascent Soul Lightning Tribulation and become a Nascent Soul Cultivator."

At this moment, a Xianxia City Cultivator shouted out in joy, simply overjoyed and ecstatic.

As a Disciple of the Xianxia Sect, he naturally knew what this meant.

It meant that from now on, the Xianxia Sect would have a new Nascent Soul Ancestor, and the Xianxia Sect would also become a new Nascent Soul Sect.

"No way, Elder Zhou has become a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and coupled with the previous Sect Master Lin, that means our Xianxia City now has two great Nascent Soul Ancestors protecting it."

"A force like this, even looking at the entire Wuji Alliance, is probably rare."

"Two Nascent Souls in one sect, what kind of power is this; it is simply too good."

"From now on, our Xianxia City is truly a Nascent Soul-level power, and we can completely walk sideways."

Numerous Cultivators discussed it, practically going crazy with joy.

They knew what a Nascent Soul Cultivator represented; it represented absolute, invincible power.

Not to mention, now that Xianxia City had two great Nascent Souls guarding it, it made the strength of Xianxia City increase tremendously.

Although it is not an invincible force, there are few that can rival it.

…………

One month later.

Xianxia Peak, a quiet room.

After a month of closed-door cultivation, Zhou Sui had thoroughly stabilized as a Nascent Soul Early Stage Cultivator; he felt the Nascent Soul in his Dantian Qi Sea also stabilize completely, having grown into the state of an infant.

It is said that when promoting to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, the Nascent Soul will grow into the state of a youth, and if promoted to the Nascent Soul Late Stage, it will grow into the state of an adult, becoming fully mature.

This is the cultivation change of the Nascent Soul Realm.

"By the way, I wonder what the data is now."

At this moment, Zhou Sui's heart stirred, and he immediately opened his Virtual Panel.

【Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Nascent Soul Early Stage (Progress 10%), Lifespan: 100 (15000) years】

【Aptitude: Third-Tier Spirit Root (20%)】

【Sword Dao: Third-Tier High-Grade (99%)】

【Rune: Third-Tier High-Grade (99%)】

【Array Formation: Fifth-Tier Inferior (10%)】

【Alchemist: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade (15%)】

【Artifact Refining: Third-Tier High-Grade (20%)】

【Phantom Demon Transformation Art: Grandmaster (99%)】

【Infatuation Gu: Fifth-Tier Inferior, Clone Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Wine Insect: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Gold-Eating Insect: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Book Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Dream Soul Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Dragon Elephant Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Teleportation Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Array Heart Gu: Fifth-Tier Inferior, Object Seeking Gu: Fourth-Tier Low-Grade, Tribulation Thunder Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade.】

"This!"

Zhou Sui was very excited; the first thing he naturally paid attention to was his own Longevity.

Although he knew the life energy within his body had increased quite a bit, without the data from the Virtual Panel, he still did not know exactly how much Longevity he had gained.

He never expected that his Longevity would actually reach fifteen thousand years.

This was simply that of a ten-thousand-year-old turtle.

It was enough for him to live until the end of time.

Moreover, this was merely at the Nascent Soul Early Stage; if his cultivation were to break through further, his Longevity would certainly increase even more. Don't look at how he seems to be one hundred years old now; compared to his total Longevity, he is still just an infant.

"The progress of the hundred spirit-refining techniques is also quite good."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin.

His levels in Sword Dao, Rune, Artifact Refining, and so on had all reached the Third-Tier High-Grade realm, and would soon break through to the Fourth-Tier.

This was also unavoidable.

After all, during this period, he had been bitterly cultivating to improve his cultivation base and had no time to attend to these spirit-refining techniques.

Spirit-refining techniques are not things that improve just because one's cultivation base improves.

If one does not study and does not hone and practice them, they will never improve.

They might even regress.

Of course, with the help of the Book Gu, the speed at which his spirit-refining techniques improved was also very fast.

His Alchemist realm had also improved to the Fourth-Tier Low-Grade.

Among them, the fastest progress was naturally his Array Formation cultivation, which had already reached the Fifth-Tier Inferior realm.

This was all thanks to the power of the Array Heart Gu.

After assimilating the Fifth-Tier Array of this Transformation God Relic of the Kurong Sect, the Array Heart Gu began to perceive some of the mysteries of Fifth-Tier arrays, which also caused his Array Formation cultivation to improve rapidly, easily reaching the Fifth-Tier Inferior realm.

If not for the power of the Array Heart Gu, he wouldn't know in what year or month he would be able to improve his Array Formation cultivation.

After all, as the level of the array gets higher, the difficulty also becomes greater.

"I have also learned various techniques."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin; he had also mastered all kinds of techniques. After all, for a Cultivator, techniques are also a very important means, or perhaps an ability.

Because no one can be certain that they will always have a Dharma Treasure on their person.

And he might not always have the help of Gu Insects on his person either.

Therefore, techniques are quite important at such times, just like skills on one's own body.

Even if he lost everything, with the existence of such skills, he would still be a very powerful Cultivator.

Among them, he had also learned two recent divine ability techniques.

One is the Ancient Profound Turtle Art, which has already reached the first layer realm; it can condense into a Mysterious Turtle Cover, forming a Mysterious Turtle barrier, and release a powerful defensive barrier with extraordinary power.

There is also the Withered Glory Profound Light, which is a supreme divine ability technique from the Kurong Sect, with infinite power.

It can trade life for life, injure others with one's own essence, and has infinite power.

Once learned, relying on this technique, one can challenge those of higher levels, and can even rely on Longevity to exhaust a Transformation God to death.

However, he is currently only at the Beginner stage, so the power of this divine ability technique is not yet very great.

It requires consuming twenty years of Longevity to trade for one year of an enemy's; the cost is too high and the gain is not worth the loss.

At the very least, one must cultivate it to the Minor Achievement realm before it can be used to deal with enemies.

But it must be said that this divine ability technique is indeed incomparably powerful.

Especially since his Longevity is long; even an ancient Monster Beast would not dare to trade lives with him.

"However, the most important thing is still the Gu Insects."

"With the improvement of my cultivation, the Gu Insects have also successively advanced to the Fourth-Tier realm."

Zhou Sui sensed that the cultivation of the twelve Gu Insects on his body had all received a huge improvement, successively advancing to the Fourth-Tier realm, and their strength had also undergone earth-shaking changes, which could not be mentioned in the same breath as before.

Among them, the one with the greatest progress was naturally the first Gu Insect on his body, the Infatuation Gu.

The Infatuation Gu had already advanced to the Fifth-Tier Inferior realm, and its strength had been further improved.

The power of the Fifth-Tier Infatuation Gu had also become extremely terrifying.

It had naturally also gestated a new ability—Peach Blossom Eye.

"Peach Blossom Eye."

Zhou Sui's heart stirred; he perceived strands of mysterious energy being infused from the Fifth-Tier Infatuation Gu into his eyeballs, causing his eyes to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Originally, his pair of eyes were ordinary, with nothing special about them.

But after being transformed by the Fifth-Tier Infatuation Gu, they had evolved into the Peach Blossom Eye.

This kind of eye, as the name suggests, is for attracting peach blossoms.

Any woman who takes a single look at this eye will involuntarily fall into a passionate love.

It is just like love at first sight.

Even if they look a few more times, they will be unable to extricate themselves and fall head over heels in love with him.

"This!"

Sensing the information transmitted from the Infatuation Gu, Zhou Sui was speechless; even though the Infatuation Gu had advanced to the Fifth-tier realm, it possessed no combat power at all, only pure auxiliary abilities.

It was infinitely enhancing his male charm, trying its best to make him a master of romance in the world of immortal cultivation.

As the Infatuation Gu continued to evolve, his charm became increasingly astonishing.

Especially its lethality toward women, which was simply impossible to describe in words.

If he were to appear in a mortal kingdom, he would likely cause countless women to fight over him out of jealousy and fall head over heels in love with him, and there is no telling how many families would be destroyed.

This is no Peach Blossom Eye; it is simply the Eye of the Homewrecker.

To be honest, if he were willing, even obtaining three thousand Dao Companions would be no problem at all.

But he values quality over quantity.

If there are too many Dao Companions, it also means a lot of responsibility.

One cannot simply marry these Dao Companions and then abandon them, can one?

Rather than having trouble in the future, it is better to cut off the roots of affection with tears from the very beginning.

Therefore, he now has standards for taking Dao Companions, which is that they must be the saintesses of major sects, or perhaps Sect Masters.

Such female cultivators have astonishing talent, at the very least at the level of a Heavenly Spirit Root.

And in this way, they can accompany him throughout the countless years to come, staying together for a lifetime.

It is also relatively simple for them to improve their cultivation, without needing to consume so many resources.

Don't look at him as being a bit of a scumbag; he is still very responsible.

At the very least, none of the Dao Companions who have followed him have suffered; they can even continuously improve their cultivation and have hope for longevity.

It can be said that he has a clear conscience.

"The Wine Insect has finally advanced to the Fourth-tier level as well."

Zhou Sui was very satisfied.

To be honest, the Wine Insect could be considered a type of Gu Insect he had somewhat neglected.

It was precisely because of the existence of the Wine Insect that he earned his first pot of gold and made a large amount of Spirit Stones.

But with the improvement of his cultivation and the increase in resources, he no longer really needed the Wine Insect to earn money for him.

It could be said that the presence of the Wine Insect was constantly declining.

In fact, he had never ignored the existence of the Wine Insect.

As the Wine Insect's cultivation grows higher, its importance will also continuously increase.

Because after reaching the Fourth-tier realm, the Wine Insect can brew Fourth-tier Spirit Wine.

For a Nascent Soul Cultivator, Fourth-tier Spirit Wine is a rare resource that can enhance Nascent Soul Dharma Power.

Its effect is no less than that of a Fourth-Tier Treasure Pill.

One must know that after reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, the Spirit Medicine and Pills suitable for Nascent Soul Cultivators are becoming fewer and fewer.

They are simply hard to find in this world.

Especially Fourth-tier Spirit Wine, which has almost gone extinct in the Canglan Sea.

Even if a single pot of Fourth-tier Spirit Wine appears, it is enough to make Nascent Soul Cultivators scramble for it.

But now, the Wine Insect can continuously brew Fourth-tier Spirit Wine.

This is simply a mine that can continuously produce Spirit Stones, and it is worth a fortune.

Even after it reaches the Fifth-tier, it might be able to brew Spirit Wine of the Transformation God level.

Even Transformation God cultivators might go crazy for it.

"The Teleportation Gu has also been upgraded to the Fourth-Tier Low-Grade level; it seems my life-saving ability has also greatly increased."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

He sensed the bursts of information transmitted by the Teleportation Gu and immediately knew what abilities the Fourth-order Instantaneous Gu had; simply put, the distance of the Instant Movement was greater.

When it was still at the Third-tier realm, the maximum distance for a single use was only one million kilometers.

But now, it has reached a distance of ten million kilometers.

To a certain extent, the Teleportation Gu is almost equivalent to a small Teleportation Array.

At the same time, the number of times the Teleportation Gu can perform Instant Movement has also increased, reaching as many as ten thousand times.

If used carefully, it is practically infinite Instant Movement.

There is absolutely no need to worry about the Void Energy within the Teleportation Gu being exhausted.

Carrying the Teleportation Gu on one's person is equivalent to carrying a Teleportation Array capable of infinite Instant Movement.

Such a life-saving ability is simply incomparable to other Dharma Treasures.

"Not bad, not bad."

Zhou Sui felt very joyful in his heart.

He values the power of the Teleportation Gu extremely highly; he considers defeat before considering victory.

Even though he is now a Nascent Soul Cultivator and can be called the hegemon of the Canglan Sea.

But who knows what will happen in the future? Perhaps he will encounter an enemy of the Transformation God level.

Therefore, preparing means of escape is extremely important.

Even if he encounters the worst situation, he can still save his own life and make a comeback in the future.
