Chapter 1008: No One in the World Calls Qin Yu

Inside Lei Shan Ju, Fang Yu and Qin Yu were both cultivating.

This villa left behind by Lei Wei had been given a new name by Qin Yu—"Lei Shan Ju"—which better fit the naming conventions of the Hidden Dragon Continent.

Both men were cultivating, and Fang Yu's cultivation speed advanced extremely quickly.

It had to be said that the Three Thousand Great Daos, the Great Star Art, when combined with this world's cultivation method, the Stellar Transformation, complemented each other perfectly. Once this great dao divine ability was slightly activated, the stars of the heavens and the supreme power of the stars all surged forth, causing Fang Yu's avatar to cultivate at an extremely rapid pace, reaching the early stage of the Nebula Realm, then the middle stage of the Nebula Realm, then the late stage of the Nebula Realm, and then in one fell swoop stepping into the next realm of Stellar Transformation—the Meteor Realm.

The Meteor Realm required refining all the power of the stars into a single point of golden essence, which was called: Meteor.

Refining all the star power absorbed during the Nebula period into a single point of golden essence, the "Meteor," was a kind of elevation in energy grade, just as the spirit of a cultivator in the Eternal Life Realm condensed into magic power, magic power condensed into true qi, and true qi condensed into Daoist Gang Qi.

The Meteor Realm still posed no difficulty whatsoever for Fang Yu.

Qin De, Feng Yuzi, and the others watched their Yu'er cultivating the Stellar Transformation alongside that immortal. Their Yu'er had just entered the Gangru Sect and cultivated to the early stage of the Nebula Realm, while that immortal had already cultivated to the Meteor Realm. They couldn't help being shocked and moved, exclaiming in wonder.

"I never expected Yu'er to receive such a fortuitous encounter; it truly comforts me. But now the biggest problem is that my Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation is about to arrive."

Qin De, this Zhendong Prince, saw that his Yu'er had also basked in the light of that immortal and could draw in more star power, his strength rapidly increasing, and his mood was very pleased. But in his heart there was also a heavy feeling, because he sensed that his Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation truly was not far off.

"If the Prince wishes to undergo tribulation crossing, this place is actually not bad. At that time, Xiao Yu and I will protect the Prince's law. After all, this is the land of the Primordial Continent—no one knows whether there might be any demon beasts."

Feng Yuzi's expression stirred.

"Indeed, this place is a good spot for tribulation crossing. I just fear that Xiang Guang will never know that I am undergoing tribulation crossing here."

Qin De nodded, a few hints of killing intent flashing through his eyes.

The current Emperor of the Chu Dynasty was called Xiang Guang, and he shared a deep blood feud with him. Once he successfully underwent tribulation crossing and advanced to the Golden Core Realm, he would certainly dispatch troops and utterly annihilate the Chu Dynasty.

"Father is going to undergo tribulation crossing? I will protect Father's law!"

Although Qin Yu was cultivating, he also heard the words of Qin De and Feng Yuzi, and he decided to properly protect his father's law.

"Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation."

Fang Yu sat cross-legged beneath the Eight-Part Pagoda, the morning bell and evening drum trembling slightly. He was also somewhat curious about what the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation of this world was like.

On this day.

"Hoo~~~"

A gale rose suddenly. The towering ancient trees of the Primordial Continent swayed ceaselessly, and one by one the wild beasts fell silent, as if sensing something terrifying. And high in the sky, although it had been daytime, the heavens abruptly turned a dark crimson color.

Above the dark crimson sky, a massive vortex appeared. The entire dark crimson sky also conjured bolts of lightning serpents out of nothingness, and in the end the lightning serpents were also absorbed by the vortex, gathering ceaselessly, causing the vortex to transform into a purple tribulation cloud.

Once this purple tribulation cloud formed, it hung directly above Qin De, as if about to strike down at any moment.

"So this is the rule of heaven and earth."

Fang Yu observed the scene just now, seeing the origin of the heavenly tribulation with perfect clarity: first the vortex appeared, then the power of lightning gathered, and finally the entire vortex transformed into a tribulation cloud, ready to strike down at any moment.

Fang Yu sensed the evolution of this tribulation and found it somewhat wondrous. For a tribulation to descend, it must first sense the cultivator's qi, and only then would it descend. This seemed to involve the evolution of many laws such as soul and space.

He pondered the several great daos he cultivated—the Three Thousand Great Daos Great Thunder Art, the Three Thousand Great Daos Great Calamity Art, and the Three Thousand Great Daos Great Soul Art. If this Great Soul Art were combined with the Great Thunder Art, or the Great Soul Art with the Great Calamity Art, it might possibly evolve into a new great immortal art.

The Great Soul Art, when condensed and evolved with other great dao divine abilities into a great immortal art, would see its might increased dozens of times over.

However, the combination of great daos with great daos was not so easy.

Boom!

Just at this moment, a tremendous peal of thunder rang out, and a purple bolt of lightning, resembling a coiling divine dragon, struck toward Qin De.

"Hah!"

A low shout rang out from Qin De's mouth, and at the same time dragon-shaped protective Daoist Gang Qi appeared on the surface of his body. This was the Qin family's ultimate technique, the "Ancestral Dragon Qin Shi Huang Art," which, after he cultivated it to the innate extreme, produced a method of body protection.

Rumble rumble.

The purple lightning struck Qin De's protective Daoist Gang Qi, producing a tremor, but did not blast through.

The first bolt of Lei Jie was thus overcome.

"The Prince has already overcome the first heavenly tribulation. The first heavenly tribulation was not too difficult. The following heavenly tribulations will become increasingly fearsome, but the Prince has a top-grade spirit artifact's armor, so there shouldn't be any difficulty."

Feng Yuzi watched from the side.

Just as Feng Yuzi was pondering, the purple Lei Yun churned ceaselessly, absorbing more lightning.

Another purple heavenly thunder descended at extreme speed from the high sky. Compared to the first, this heavenly thunder was thicker, its purple light more dazzling, and in an instant it had already struck down.

This time Qin De directly activated the top-grade spirit artifact, which emitted ray after ray of light, violently colliding with the descending purple heavenly thunder.

After a series of booming sounds, the purple heavenly thunder was instantly shattered.

The second heavenly thunder was thus overcome as well.

"With a top-grade spirit artifact refined by an immortal, undergoing heavenly tribulation is truly as easy as turning over one's hand!!"

A look of envy appeared on Feng Yuzi's face. Back when he underwent the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation, he had no top-grade spirit artifact at all—only a low-grade spirit artifact in hand. It could be called miserable and pitiful, and he had only with great difficulty overcome the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation.

Truly, times had changed. Having met an immortal, the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation didn't seem so difficult anymore.

"Aoo!"

And just at this moment, tremendous wolf howls rang out ceaselessly. One after another, Blue Fire Wolves charged out from the distant mountain forest, in an endless stream. In just a short while, more than a hundred Blue Fire Wolves were already charging toward this side, and new Blue Fire Wolves kept emerging from the mountain forest.

"Demon beasts attacking—Blue Fire Wolves! Xiao Yu, protect the Prince's law together with me!"

Feng Yuzi gave a great shout and immediately flew out, a top-grade spirit artifact flying sword in hand.

On the other side, Qin Yu also grunted and flew straight over, a top-grade spirit artifact flying sword also in his hand.

The distant demon beasts, the Blue Fire Wolves, were still howling madly. The weakest of these Blue Fire Wolves was at the Innate Realm, and the stronger ones had already reached the limit of the Innate Realm. Some Blue Fire Wolves had even cultivated a Jin Dan, clearly Blue Fire Wolves of the Golden Core Realm.

"These wolves that strike while the house is on fire—die, all of you!"

Qin Yu roared angrily in a shout, his body moving as he executed his family's inherited ultimate technique, the Northern Dipper Seven Stars Moonlight Dance. His entire person became as ethereal and unreal as a moon shadow, and in an instant he was among the wolf pack. With a casual flick of his top-grade spirit artifact flying sword—bang bang bang—great holes appeared in the heads of the Blue Fire Wolves one after another, the insides of their heads utterly shattered.

The first dozens of Blue Fire Wolves to appear were directly slain by Qin Yu.

"Aoo!"

More Blue Fire Wolves howled madly and charged over in a frenzy. And just at this moment, Feng Yuzi, this Golden Core Realm expert, also activated his top-grade spirit artifact flying sword, erupting with ray after ray of sword qi, slaying Blue Fire Wolves one after another.

A top-grade spirit artifact flying sword slaying demon beasts like Blue Fire Wolves was simply one kill per strike.

"A Golden Core Realm expert, yet without any divine ability—this kind of Jin Dan, placed in the Eternal Life Realm, would probably be about the Magical Power Realm of the first level of divine ability."

Fang Yu looked at Feng Feng Yuzi. This Golden Core expert had only channeled his true essence, causing his spirit artifact flying sword to unleash sword Qi, yet he himself had not used a single divine ability.

This gave Fang Yu a feeling: although the Golden Cores of the Stellar Transformation Realm were also called Golden Cores, this kind of Golden Core was equivalent to a cultivator in the Eternal Life Realm who had not cultivated any divine abilities, condensing a Golden Core with zero divine abilities.

In the Eternal Life Realm, even the most trash Golden Core must cultivate five divine abilities, condensing five types of Five Element Grand Arrays within the body, then step by step cultivate to the Return to Oneness Realm, and then further advance, only then reaching the Golden Core Realm.

Yet now this Feng Feng Yuzi had not cultivated any divine abilities, yet was also called Golden Core Realm.

Even the leader of those Green Wood Wolves was a Golden Core Realm expert. This leader had also not cultivated a single divine ability, nor inherited any innate divine ability.

Thus a battle erupted here among rookie-level Golden Core experts.

When Golden Core experts without any divine abilities fought each other, they truly had to rely on external magic treasures.

Feng Feng Yuzi this time possessed a supreme-grade spirit artifact flying sword, and thus successfully slew the leader among the Green Wood Wolves, immediately causing all the other Green Wood Wolves to scatter in an instant.

Boom boom boom!

After the tribulation clouds in the sky had accumulated for another period of time, the third bolt of heavenly lightning surged down from the nine heavens, carrying a kind of oppressive might, and struck directly at Qin De.

The rolling thunder rumbled down, yet was still blocked by that supreme-grade spirit artifact armor.

"The third bolt, also blocked!"

Seeing such a scene, whether it was Qin Yu or Feng Feng Yuzi, all were extremely delighted.

Buzz buzz buzz.

The fourth bolt of heavenly lightning also arrived. The purple lightning, like a wandering dragon of the nine heavens, snaked down from the tribulation clouds in the sky, carrying a world-destroying momentum and ferociously bombarding Qin De.

The supreme-grade spirit artifact armor on his body still manifested streaks of light, blocking the fourth bolt of heavenly lightning as well.

The Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation had thus been successfully overcome!
