Chapter 217: Yellow Heaven Three-Nine Gui Water Lei Jie (Asking for monthly tickets at the beginning of the month)

Cheng Xinzhan pinched the seal and circulated the Jin Dan. A bright elixir pill flew out from his heavenly spirit.

This Jin Dan appeared scorching white, like the sun at noon in midsummer, white to the point of revealing golden light, making it impossible for people to look directly at it.

The Jin Dan appeared in the world, accompanied by tiger roars and dragon chants, and even under the rolling thunder sound, it could be heard clearly.

Everyone watching changed their expressions. What kind of quality Jin Dan is this?

Many people ruled out the possibility that this person was a scattered cultivator the first time they saw the Jin Dan.

It was also when the Jin Dan appeared in the world that two escape lights came from the east, traveling at lightning speed, rushing straight toward the tribulation clouds.

True Martial child was suddenly alert. The speed of those two escape lights made even him feel terrified. However, he didn't retreat, his hands already pinching the Mysterious Turtle Seal, his mouth releasing words,

"A friend is crossing the tribulation here, stop!"

Everyone saw the two escape lights coming, but didn't hear the sound of breaking through the air, because their escape speed was much faster than the vibration of the void.

From seeing the escape lights coming to passing through the crowd of onlookers in the outer circle, it was just a blink of an eye.

A Mysterious Turtle and Teng Snake coiled Dharma form had already appeared behind the True Martial child.

"Thank you, Daoist, for protecting the Dharma."

At this time, the two escape lights had already stood still not far in front of the True Martial child, revealing their forms.

One was an old man with white beard and silver hair, spirited and vigorous. The other, although looking a bit old in appearance, had dense beard and hair that were pitch black and shiny, looking as if he were still in his prime.

The latter took the initiative to bow to the True Martial child, thanking him.

The True Martial child was greatly shocked. Being close, he could naturally distinguish that these two were both Fourth-Realm great cultivators!

It was just fortunate that these two had long and peaceful auras, with Daoist clear light on their bodies. One could see at a glance that they were practicing the Mysterious Heart Orthodox Method of the Daoist sect, and didn't look like any evil demons. Coming in a hurry from the east, he basically guessed where the two came from.

"Master Dong, Master Fu, why did you two come over?"

With such a big commotion, Cheng Xinzhan naturally saw it too.

Dong Shouren looked at Cheng Xinzhan and threw an elixir bottle over,

"Cross your tribulation well, don't care about anything else."

Cheng Xinzhan took it and looked at it. It was the same as the one given by Master Wen just now, both were things for locking the elixir and hanging life if one couldn't withstand the thunder tribulation.

The most outsiders could do was just this.

However, with people from the sect coming, Cheng Xinzhan felt very settled in his heart and had more confidence.

"This poor Daoist is True Martial Temple Master Wen Tianzhen. The two Mysterious In-s have manners."

Seeing Cheng Xinzhan calling the two, the True Martial child naturally determined the identities of the two, and his heart was also relieved, withdrawing the Dharma seal and bowing.

Dong Shouren and Fu Shouzhen pinched the Three Pure Seals and returned the bow,

"Mount Sanqing Dong Shouren, Daoist Wen has manners. Truly thank you."

"Daoist Wen has manners. The grace of protecting the Dharma, Fu Shouzhen thanks you here."

True Martial child waved his hands repeatedly, "I and Xinzhan met as if we were old friends. Protecting the Dharma is just what should be done."

Dong Shouren said, "Daoist is benevolent, please wait a moment."

True Martial child signaled please.

Dong Shouren and Fu Shouzhen looked at each other and nodded respectively.

Both of them formed seals, pressing their fingers to the centers of their brows; subsequently, majestic spiritual energy escaped from their bodies. The clear sky for ten thousand miles changed color, and the waves of spiritual power spread in all directions like a tornado at sea, forcibly pushing back the many Golden Core cultivators who were watching from twenty miles away to a distance of over fifty miles.

And True Martial child only cleared the living people and animals within a ten-mile radius of the tribulation clouds. Now, under the joint casting of the two Fourth-Realm cultivators, all eating-Qi living beings within a hundred-mile radius were all moved to fifty miles away.

Immediately afterward, two points of spiritual light overflowed from the center of the two Mysterious In-s' brows, and then shone brightly. Everyone was stabbed by the strong light and closed their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, they were shocked.

They only saw:

South of the tribulation clouds, a fire-light Dharma form sat in the void, thirty zhang from the ground, eighty-one zhang in Dharma body. The Dharma form was the true form of a high Daoist, red-faced and vermilion-clothed, with both hands placed in front of the abdomen, palms supporting a warm furnace, and a mirror wheel generated by flame behind the head, shining in all directions.

Only those familiar with the Daoist divine spectrum could recognize that this was the Southern Dan-Spirit True Old Man among the Five Directions and Five Olds, the Red Emperor Great Dao Lord.

North of the tribulation clouds, a purple-light Dharma form sat in the void, thirty zhang from the ground, seventy-nine zhang in Dharma body. The Dharma form was also the true form of a high Daoist, purple-faced and bearded, one hand resting on the leg, one hand standing in front of the chest forming a seal, with a mirror wheel formed by electric light behind the head, shining in all directions.

Only those familiar with the ancient Thunder Department pivot could recognize that this was the third of the twenty-four Heavenly Lords of the Thunder Department, Tao Yuanxin Tao Heavenly Lord, who was the Thunder Department Symbol-Holding Envoy, commanding the Five Thunder Symbol Orders.

The two divine Dharma forms sat facing each other, protecting Cheng Xinzhan in the middle.

The Dan-Spirit True Old Man Dharma form opened his lips, and the Dharma sound was like thunder shaking, spreading in all directions,

"I have been slow to you fellow Daoists. Mount Sanqing apologizes here. Our Dao seed is borrowing the precious land of Xiangxi to cross the tribulation, please make it convenient."

The people who dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and had resentment and anger in their hearts, heard the Dharma sound. Regardless of how they felt in their hearts, they were extremely respectful on the surface, opening their mouths one after another,

"Mysterious In-s are too polite."

"It should be so."

————

Regardless of the commotion outside, Cheng Xinzhan had no time to care. At this moment, he only had the thunder tribulation in his eyes.

The tribulation thunder brewed in the tribulation clouds for a long time, and the thunder sound finally paused. Cheng Xinzhan heard it clearly. The sound of low-pitched tribulation thunder brewing sounded twenty-seven times in total.

Then this time it was a Three-Nine Lei Jie.

Three-Nine means there are three waves of nine times, twenty-seven heavenly thunders descending.

The thunder brewing was complete, and a short moment of tranquility formed between heaven and earth, so quiet that Cheng Xinzhan could hear his own heartbeat.

The onlookers were also holding their breath, staring closely at the tribulation clouds.

Finally, an electric light moved, accompanied by a thunder explosion, revealing itself from the tribulation clouds.

A silver electricity as thick as a water vat poured down, like a high mountain waterfall flowing straight down. Looking closely, one could find that the arc light around the silver waterfall was tinged with the water color of the deep blue.

Thus, Cheng Xinzhan knew his first tribulation:

Yellow Heaven Three-Nine Gui Water Lei Jie.

This was not out of his expectation. He had naturally thought about what his first tribulation would be. He had thought of several possibilities, and Gui Water was one of them.

As the necessary path for thousands of practitioners of the world's hundreds of Dharma lineages, this elixir-washing thunder tribulation naturally wasn't descended at will. There were many doorways and stresses inside.

But the biggest purpose of the elixir-washing tribulation was only one, and that was to make the Jin Dan more perfect.

Cheng Xinzhan's Jin Dan was formed by the Earth Evil of the Yang Earth and the Heavenly Gang of the Yin Water. But to tell the truth, although the Rain Gang was left by the ancestor, a thousand-year lingering rhyme, it was still a bit worse than the Earth Lung Mysterious Yellow Qi of the first-class Earth Evil. So in general, it was strong in evil and weak in gang, strong in earth and weak in heaven, strong in earth and weak in water.

So it was no surprise that the first tribulation descended with Gui Water tribulation thunder, supplementing the water intent, water and earth blending, and Yin-Yang balance.

It is said that the first thunder tribulation is the lightest, so Cheng Xinzhan didn't use any means, offering the Jin Dan high.

"Zi—Zi——"

Thunder crashed down, pouring onto the Jin Dan, splashing countless electric lights.

Tribulation thunder is not like ordinary heavenly thunder, it is not fleeting.

Tribulation clouds are like thunder pools, thunder is like waterfalls, and Jin Dan is like mountain stones.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths, ten breaths.

The thunder pool is inexhaustible, the waterfall is constant, and the mountain stone does not move.

After thirty breaths, the people around looked on with fear. The first thunder tribulation was this long. Is this kid a Dao body and demon heart?

And looking at Cheng Xinzhan himself, he felt that it was still okay.

The Jin Dan had been tempered by thunder for several months, and the thunder seal marks on it were still shining brightly, so he was not afraid of this heavenly tribulation. When the heavenly tribulation fell, he didn't run around or make a fool of himself.

The Jin Dan was solid, and there was no sign of disintegration when washed by the tribulation thunder.

As for Cheng Xinzhan himself, it was still that familiar feeling. The Inner Landscape Realm was roaring, as if an earthquake and heaven-tilting were happening. His limbs and bones seemed to be repeatedly crushed by thunder cars, and also seemed to be needled and chiseled by iron, with gongs beating in his ears, which was ten thousand kinds of uncomfortable.

——However, if one had to divide the high and low in the matter of enduring pain, Cheng Xinzhan's ability to endure pain was as high as his talent for Dao cultivation.

Jin Dan carried thunder in the air, Cheng Xinzhan was as immovable as a mountain.

In the thunder sound, he gradually heard tiger roars.

Until fifty breaths, just when Cheng Xinzhan's whole body was numb and difficult to endure, and even he was about to be unable to hold back and tremble, this first thunder tribulation finally ended.

But only ten breaths apart, the second thunder tribulation descended suddenly!

Boom——

The Jin Dan was sunk several feet, and Cheng Xinzhan's body also shook violently.

He clenched his fists tightly. This first thunder tribulation seemed to be just an appetizer, its power was simply incomparable to the second thunder tribulation!

A moment ago he was still thinking that crossing this first thunder tribulation was quite easy, but the next moment the thunder tribulation gave him a head-on blow.

He seemed to be in an ice river, an extremely cold feeling wrapped him, as if even his thoughts were about to be frozen. At the same time, there seemed to be countless ice in the river. These ice were extremely cold, but also as hard as iron, rushing and hitting his body. These iron-like ice seemed to ignore flesh and blood, directly knocking on his bones!

Cheng Xinzhan was completely stunned by this sudden blow, almost falling into a state of sinking into eternal doom. However, fortunately, he had the miserable experience of the Mount Longhu seal, and he ignited the Pure Yang divine fire for the first time to firmly guard his heart, letting the cold erode and the iron ice hit his bones.

He didn't know how long it had passed, nor did he know how the Jin Dan was, until the biting cold retreated like a tide.

His consciousness gradually returned to clarity.

He went to look at the Jin Dan.

The Jin Dan was still there, only trembling in the air, with a layer of thick, cold white frost covering its surface.

However, the thunder tribulation didn't give him too much breathing time. About thirty breaths later, the third thunder tribulation fell.

Cheng Xinzhan didn't dare to be arrogant anymore, immediately offering the water-row magic sword "Heaven One Produces Water" to stand in front of the Jin Dan, wanting to use the magic sword to ingest the thunder tribulation, and at the same time let the heavenly tribulation temper the magic sword. In addition, he held the Shangqing Talisman in his hand. Once the magic sword's ingestion of thunder tribulation was insufficient, he would use the Shangqing Talisman to top it.

"Heaven One Produces Water" had been warmed by Cheng Xinzhan for many years and had long been tainted with his aura, so the thunder tribulation didn't dodge, but fell along the existing trajectory.

Zi——

The magic sword shone brightly under Cheng Xinzhan's control, eating the thunder tribulation, making Cheng Xinzhan's lifted heart fall back into his stomach.

However, the thunder tribulation ingested by the magic sword was obviously not as much as the pouring of the heavenly tribulation. While pouring the magic sword, the thunder tribulation flowed along the sword body, continuing to pour onto the Jin Dan.

But Cheng Xinzhan didn't use the Shangqing Talisman to block it immediately. The leaking thunder tribulation was half less than when it first came out of the tribulation clouds. He thought the Jin Dan should be able to withstand it. This was an elixir-washing tribulation after all, and every thunder tribulation contained tribulation luck and Dharma intent. If all of it was blocked, washing the elixir would have no meaning.

Seeing the thunder strike, the Jin Dan that had been beaten and scared wanted to dodge, but this was an elixir-washing tribulation. Where could the Jin Dan dodge to? The thunder struck, and the bone-chilling cold attacked again. But this time Cheng Xinzhan was prepared, covering his soul with divine fire and burning his body with Yang fire, finally not as unbearable as before.

Cheng Xinzhan's Jin Dan was extremely spiritual. If the thunder tribulation was compared to a stream, the Jin Dan was like a carp in the water, always wanting to jump out of the water surface. But this thunder tribulation stream was moving. No matter where the Jin Dan jumped, the thunder tribulation could always catch up, shrouding the Jin Dan again.

Cheng Xinzhan felt a bit ashamed looking at it, but he didn't know how many onlookers envied the agility of this Jin Dan.

The more spiritual the Jin Dan, the easier it is for the Dao embryo to conceive.

The third thunder tribulation passed safely, and the fourth thunder tribulation followed closely.

However, just as the fourth thunder tribulation was nearing its end, the water sword was also saturated. The magic sword was surrounded by thunder light, emitting a mournful cry.

Cheng Xinzhan knew that the magic sword was on the verge of disintegration. Stopping now and using the tribulation thunder to warm it well in the future would be enough to make this magic sword reborn. But it was not easy to be overly squeezed at this moment. It is the so-called "fullness leads to loss."

He put away the water sword, and the thunder suddenly became thicker, scaring the Jin Dan into jumping up and down.

Fortunately, the fourth thunder tribulation passed quickly.

And the magic sword could ingest the tribulation thunder, which made Cheng Xinzhan feel a bit settled in his heart. After all, he had five other such magic swords.

It was just that these magic swords were his offensive sharp weapons, not specially refined tribulation-blocking treasures. "Heaven One Produces Water" had an affinity with water thunder, but this only withstood less than two thunder tribulations. There were more than twenty behind, so how to block them?

He was resisting the existing thunder tribulation while pondering the follow-up response.

When the fifth thunder tribulation fell, Cheng Xinzhan offered "Gao Zhen."

"Gao Zhen" was a thunder-path magic sword after all, and had followed Cheng Xinzhan for many years, not knowing how many thunder tribulations it had received. So at this moment, when the tribulation thunder fell, "Gao Zhen"'s performance was the best. Under Cheng Xinzhan's control, it was like a dam, intercepting the thunder tribulation, swallowing it in large gulps, and controlling the thunder tribulation downstream of the sword body to be just within the Jin Dan's bearing range.

And Cheng Xinzhan, seeing "Gao Zhen"'s performance, suddenly had other thoughts:

Open the Zique, refine the Primordial Spirit.

Opening the Zique naturally has many benefits.

The so-called: Huang Ting nourishes Qi, Jiang Mansion nourishes essence, Zique nourishes spirit.

Whether it's beasts digging holes, birds building nests, or people building huts, they all know how to make the living place spacious and bright, and stretch their hands and feet, so that things can be done conveniently.

And before the Zique was opened, there was another name, called "Niwan Palace."

The palace of Niwan, crowded with three souls and seven spirits, how can the "spirit" be nourished well?

Without breaking the barrier of Niwan, letting the sun and moon essence of the outside natural great heaven and earth penetrate, how can this "spirit" be nourished robustly?

However, this palace of Niwan is the most mysterious among all the apertures in the body. To say it is void, it is the place where the three souls and seven spirits live

It was precisely because spiritual energy could not reach it that opening the Purple Palace became a great challenge.

Fortunately, Cheng Xinzhan was not born in the era when his predecessors had to struggle through the brambles to seek the Dao; countless predecessors and wise teachers had already pointed out a clear path for him to open the Purple Palace:

Tribulation lightning, which exists between the illusory and the real and governs life, death, illusion, and destruction, could be used to open the Purple Palace.
