Chapter 3386: Breakthrough Delay

After that, the Bone‑Marrow Refining Pill finally began to condense the Divine Core. His Divine Core was already of high quality, and with the combined effect of the Void Fruit and the Bone‑Marrow Refining Pill, its quality quickly rose by a great margin, and his realm began to breakthrough...

Ye Liuyun also took out the Primordial Power he had previously stored from the Taixu World and absorbed it, making the entire breakthrough process proceed smoothly.

During the breakthrough, he felt his Heaven‑and‑Earth Power increase markedly, and the increase was not just a little bit. It was as if the passage that had been blocked for him was suddenly opened, and the Heaven‑and‑Earth Power surged into his body like a flood.

When Ye Liuyun slightly employed the Heaven‑and‑Earth Power, the area around his Cultivation Room was struck by his overwhelming Heaven‑and‑Earth Power and collapsed entirely.

At that moment, the Divine Realm's Heaven‑and‑Earth also sensed his breakthrough, and dark clouds gathered in the sky, preparing a thunder tribulation.

The Lightning Spirit of this world, upon seeing Ye Liuyun, became excited, thinking it finally had a chance to strike him hard. But when it sensed the breakthrough aura of the two clones as well, it was stunned on the spot.

"Three beings? This guy has two clones, and they're both this strong?"

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun had already completed the breakthrough, was absorbing the Primordial Power, and consolidating his realm.

He had already sensed the thunder sources gathering in the sky, and he wasn't worried at all; he even wanted to seize some of the thunder sources for refinement.

Thus he and the two clones did not separate, but prepared to undergo the tribulation together, receiving the baptism of the thunder tribulation liquid together.

But after waiting for a long while, no thunder tribulation struck, so he curiously looked up at the sky.

The thunder tribulation in the sky was also frustrated, not knowing what to do in this situation.

This was his first time encountering a main body and two clones undergoing the tribulation together. Usually only the main body faces the tribulation, while the clones are taken along.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun alone is already very strong, and with the two clones, he thought he might not be able to strike Ye Liuyun.

So after being stunned for a moment, seeing that Ye Liuyun had not resolved to retract the clones, it proactively used Divine Sense to remind Ye Liuyun to withdraw the clones.

"What? Not letting the clones undergo the tribulation?" Ye Liuyun frowned after receiving the Lightning Spirit's Divine Sense reminder.

Immediately, he and the clones surged skyward, broke into the cloud layer, and each pulled down several thunder sources.

"What are you doing? That's not my rule! In one world, how could there be three of you?" the Lightning Spirit roared at Ye Liuyun, dissatisfied.

But it used Divine Sense to transmit its voice; to others it sounded like a burst of thunder and lightning.

"No one ever told me this rule before, I didn't know it either, so what should we do now? Can't you make an exception, since my clones have also met the breakthrough conditions?" Ye Liuyun discussed the conditions with the Lightning Spirit.

The Lightning Spirit, of course, refused, insisting that only one being could undergo the thunder tribulation; otherwise it would not allow Ye Liuyun to breakthrough to the Taixu World.

At this moment, the Book Demon offered Ye Liuyun a suggestion: "I think having too many clones is useless; why not withdraw one clone first and strengthen your overall power.

Keeping just one clone is enough; having too many indeed does nothing but disperse your cultivation focus and resources."

"But even if I want to withdraw a clone, it takes time!" Ye Liuyun was at a loss; he couldn't merge with a clone in front of everyone and then have the thunder tribulation wait for him here.

"You should discuss it with that Lightning Spirit," the Book Demon said nonchalantly.

So Ye Liuyun negotiated with the Lightning Spirit again: "Since you insist, I can agree, but you must give me some time. After all, I didn't know you had this rule before, so I need to go back and prepare."

The Lightning Spirit thought it over and surprisingly agreed.

What Ye Liuyun didn't know was that if the Lightning Spirit didn't let him breakthrough to the Taixu Realm, then every time he used the Taixu Realm's power, the Lightning Spirit, in principle, should strike him.

But the Lightning Spirit figured that striking him once would be enough. Striking him multiple times would make Ye Liuyun's own lightning spirit stronger than it, and then

it still wouldn't be able to get him.

Ye Liuyun also thought the Lightning Spirit would give special consideration to those attempting to breakthrough to the Taixu World; otherwise it would definitely have taken more thunder sources from the Lightning Spirit.

Thus the Lightning Spirit withdrew immediately, agreeing with Ye Liuyun to return in a month.

Ye Liuyun promptly moved to another spot within the Chengzhu Fu to continue his cultivation.

The people waiting for Ye Liuyun's breakthrough were baffled. They had just sensed the change in Ye Liuyun's aura and saw the thunder tribulation forming, yet they didn't know what Ye Liuyun had discussed with the Lightning Spirit.

Ye Liuyun didn't explain to them, only saying his breakthrough had been delayed, and then he went straight to cultivation. The thunder sources he had just seized, he gave all to Lei Ming.

Everyone was equally stunned, not knowing what the breakthrough delay meant. Moreover, Ye Liuyun had actually seized several thunder sources from the tribulation, which amazed them all.

"Could it be that breaking into the Taixu Realm can be negotiated?" someone guessed wildly, but no one had an answer.

Before this cultivation, Ye Liuyun and his clones first conducted research, then he and the Second Clone entered the First Clone's Space World together. The Second Clone then transferred all the planets within its Space World into the First Clone's Space World, allowing Ye Liuyun to merge with the Second Clone.

The process of merging souls was the simplest; their souls could already be exchanged, and they could even give one soul to the First Clone.

Merging bloodlines required Moon Rainbow's assistance, transferring as much of the Second Clone's Bloodline Power as possible onto Ye Liuyun. Since Ye Liuyun would later need to merge his Physical Body with the Divine Core, insufficient Bloodline Power would affect the fusion of the Physical Body, the Nascent Core, and the Divine Core.

Of course, if Ye Liuyun merged slowly on his own, he could still complete it, but the Lightning Spirit only gave him a month; even accelerating within the clones' Space World, three hundred days wouldn't be enough.

The clones are now Ninth Layer Summit-level warriors; the power they've accumulated over years cannot be transferred all at once, but with Moon Rainbow's help the time should be sufficient.

Moon Rainbow has been with Ye Liuyun for a long time now, constantly accompanied by Ye Ling, and is no longer as aloof as before. Understanding how important this is to Ye Liuyun, she readily agreed and immediately began cooperating with him to merge the clones.

Ye Liuyun can focus his main energy on merging the Physical Body, the Nascent Core, and the Divine Core. He is familiar with this process; it's like refining a dragon body, absorbing it bit by bit.

Ye Liuyun and his clones have just used the Bone‑Marrow Refining Pill to condense their Physical Bodies, so the room for improvement is huge, and since they share the same origin, refining the Physical Body proceeds faster than refining a dragon body. However, he still has to wait for Moon Rainbow's bloodline fusion to proceed in sync.
