Yang Dangmo Forms a Golden Core
The Blade Venerable Great White's talent amazed all the Golden Core, and their desire to befriend him grew even stronger.
Yang Tianyou also had the intention of using this Golden Core Banquet to pave the way for the development of his Lineage. Naturally, he was very humble and tried to please everyone. He even let Three-Leaves Sect be bygones Lin Household...
This action allowed many Golden Core Cultivators to see the magnanimity and tolerance of the Yang Household.
The stench of blood from the previous massacre of the Goldwater Sect seemed to have dissipated considerably.
The Golden Core Banquet, as usual, lasted for three days and three nights, and finally ended with everyone enjoying themselves.
After the Golden Core Banquet, Jin Lianri and Yun Zhan stayed at the Yang Household as guests for a month before bidding farewell to Yang Tianyou and leaving one after the other.
When Jin Lianri left, Yang Tianyou specially gave him a jade pendant as a token.
He personally guaranteed that no matter what level he reached in his cultivation in the future, Jin Lianri or his descendants could use this jade pendant to make Yang Tianyou or the Yang Household do three things that would not go against his conscience.
This gesture delighted Jin Lianri pendant away.
This thing is now comparable in value to a Third-Tier Supreme-Grade Law Treasure.
If Yang Tianyou were to break through to the Spirit Transformation or Sage Manifestation in the future, this jade pendant would become Sect-Guarding Treasure.
After seeing off all the guests, the Yang Household returned to its usual tranquility.
However, throughout Luochuan Commandery, the Yang Household's prestige continued to rise at an extremely rapid and steady pace.
Another year has passed since the Golden Core Banquet!
On this day, Dark Clouds covered the sky above the Purple Moon Wolf Pool, Thunder rumbled, and howling Gang Winds stirred up the increasingly wide surface of the Wolf Pool, creating waves and splashing water everywhere.
Under the watchful eyes of Yang Tianyou, Yang Haoyu, and other Yang Household Members, Yang Dangmo, dressed in a fiery red robe and with a solemn expression, looked up at the Tribulation Lightning brewing in mid-air.
Above his head, there was still a fading phantom of Golden Core.
The second grade of Danjie is Higher Vehicle Golden Core!
With the help of Spirit Root Modification Resources, and with Yang Dangmo himself proving himself worthy of the title, both his understanding of the Dao of Heaven and Earth and his comprehension of his own cultivation Cultivation Method had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Only then did he boldly choose to break through.
As expected, he directly condensed Second-Rank Golden Core, not far from First-Grade Purple Golden Core.
The Tribulation Lightning brewed, Yang Dangmo concentration.
A moment later, the first bolt of Thunder struck down from the sky.
Boom! --
A blinding white Thunder illuminated the dim sky, like a long, winding serpent of lightning descending from heaven to earth.
Because Yang Dangmo did not consume Spirit Items to enhance his True Spirit Strength during his Foundation Establishment, his life-bound Law Artifact, the Separation Fire Seal, remains Tier 2 Supreme-Grade and cannot be used for Tribulation Transcendence.
But he remained calm, let out a long laugh, and summoned a Third-Tier Lower-Grade Law Treasure, the Six-Nine Bing Fire Net.
On this net, 6954 Third-Tier Bing Fire condensed; when released together, they possessed immense destructive power.
At the same time, these flames can also coalesce to form a Bing Fire Shield, burning incoming attacks into Void. Its defensive capabilities are among the best of all Law Treasure of the same rank.
This incredibly powerful Law Treasure was specially crafted by Old Ancestor Yang Haoyu for Yang Dangmo to help him Tribulation Transcendence. It is easy to control and extremely powerful, but it was very expensive. The value of those Third-Tier Bing Fire alone is comparable to that of a new Third-Tier Lower-Grade Law Treasure.
Buzz!!
The Six-Nine Bing Fire Net slowly unfurled in the face of Thunder, flames surging forth and condensing into a thick fire shield in the air, with dark red fire Spirit Mark flowing endlessly across its surface.
Thump!
The Thunder surged and struck the flame shield directly. However, this was only the first Tribulation Lightning, comparable to the attack of False Core. It only caused the shield to sway slightly and posed no threat whatsoever.
Boom!
Thunder struck one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the fifth Tribulation Lightning arrived.
Thump!!
At this moment, the Thunder had turned blue, and its power was comparable to that of Golden Core Cultivator at full strength.
The Six-Nine Bing Fire Net, which had already withstood multiple Tribulation Lightning, was now much dimmer. However, the fifty-four Third-Tier Bing Fires were still burning steadfastly.
Call!!
Faced with the fifth Tribulation Lightning, all the Third-Tier Bing Fires floated up.
On the Bing Fire Net, Artifact Mark appeared and then quickly solidified into a six-sided shield with fifty-four pits on its surface.
All the Third-Tier Bing Fire fell into the pit one by one, and the shield immediately shone brightly, its red light illuminating most of the sky.
Boom!!
The Thunder and the shield of fire collided, and the two enormous forces were locked in a stalemate. Before long, the Thunder shattered, turning into blue glimmers that floated in mid-air.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Dangmo took out a Hun Tian Treasure Pill from his Storage Ring and swallowed it, instantly unleashing a surge of powerful Law Power.
The higher the quality of the Golden Core, the faster the Pills can be refined. Therefore, it wasn't long before Yang Dangmo's magical Law Power was fully restored.
Boom!!
The Thunder continued to strike—the sixth, the seventh!
They were all blocked by Yang Dangmo's Six-Nine Bing Fire Net.
However, by this point, this top-tier, low-grade Third-Tier Lower-Grade Law Treasure had exhausted its reserves, and forty-nine of the fifty-four Bing Fire had been extinguished.
The net itself was mostly shattered, so this Law Treasure was essentially destroyed.
However, the remaining materials can still be recycled, which can somewhat mitigate the losses.
"A Third Tier Law Treasure was destroyed. This Tribulation Lightning is all about resources. Cultivators with powerful backing can risk the loss of their Law Treasure and not only successfully Tribulation Transcendence but also emerge unscathed. Cultivators without powerful backing can only fight and snatch on their own. The gap is too big!" A member of the Yang Household Members sighed.
The clansman beside him smiled and replied, "That's why the stronger the Lineage, the better it is for us. It's good to have a big tree to shelter under; developing the Lineage is also a form of cultivation!"
"Yes, yes, that's correct..."
The clansmen discussed it amongst themselves, but there wasn't much worry on their faces. Judging from the current situation, it was a foregone conclusion that Yang Dangmo would survive the Tribulation Lightning.
Boom!!
The eighth Tribulation Lightning struck.
Yang Tianyou and Yang Haoyu's expressions changed, and they said at the same time, "Variant Tribulation Lightning!"
Following their gaze, one could see that the winding Thunder was actually three colors, not the normal blue-purple, but gold, red, and blue. The three colors intertwined, and the three characteristics of sharpness, explosiveness, and erosion were intertwined together.
This is Variant Tribulation Lightning, the kind of Tribulation Lightning that Cultivators fear most when Tribulation Transcendence.
This kind of Tribulation Lightning doesn't depend on talent, but only on luck; if you're lucky, you might never encounter it even once in your lifetime.
Those with bad luck may encounter several Variant Tribulation Lightning during a single Tribulation Transcendence.
Luochuan Sect Xuan Gu, who once died in the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm, was because he encountered three Variant Tribulation Lightning Golden Core Thunder Tribulation, which directly shattered his Golden Core and left him on the verge of death.
If it weren't for the sect's Pills that saved his life, he would probably have perished under the Tribulation Lightning.
Unexpectedly, Yang Dangmo encountered Variant Tribulation Lightning today while undergoing his Tribulation Transcendence; he was truly unlucky.
"Fortunately, the Variant Tribulation Lightning Tribulation Lightning only appeared on the eighth lightning tribulation. In this way, even if the ninth Tribulation Lightning is also Variant Tribulation Lightning, Fifth Granduncle can still overcome it with the help of the Lineage's methods, although he may be injured!" Yang Tianyou said in a deep voice.
"Let's keep watching, let's get through this Tribulation Lightning first!" Yang Haoyu said.
Boom!!
As the Variant Tribulation Lightning struck, Yang Dangmo's expression turned solemn. His magical Law Power surged throughout his body, flowing like a mighty river along his broad meridians and pouring into the Defensive Formation beneath him.
Buzz!!
Fiery red Array Mark condensed, followed by Earth-Yellow Array Mark.
Fire generates earth, and the two intertwine, forming in the blink of an eye a large rock engraved with magma patterns.
Thump!!
The three-colored Thunder struck the stone, piercing it straight through.
Fortunately, after passing through the stone, the Thunder's power was reduced to less than one-tenth, as it was neutralized by the Third Tier inner armor worn by Yang Dangmo.
Above, Dark Clouds condensed into a vortex, with a ball of lightning rotating inside, creating an extremely terrifying scene.
However, upon seeing this, the Golden Core cultivators of the Yang Household breathed a sigh of relief; it wasn't Variant Tribulation Lightning, which was good.
The lightning ball spun, Yang Dangmo focused intently on it, holding a Third-Tier Talisman in his hand.
Boom!!
A blue-purple lightning bolt descended from the sky. Yang Dangmo first raised his hand, Talisman in his hand transformed into a Scarlet Gold pagoda, enveloping him within it.
That wasn't all; he then activated his Third Tier inner armor with all his might, forming another protective shield.
The ninth Tribulation Lightning was incredibly powerful, piercing through the pagoda's defenses and striking directly at the protective shield formed by the inner armor.
Thump!!
Yang Dangmo flew backwards into the Wolf Pool, splashing up a huge spray of water.
The Dark Clouds in the sky began to disperse, and a total of eighty-five wisps of Qi of Creation drifted down.
Yang Dangmo flew out of the water, looking disheveled, but his aura was extremely powerful.
He swallowed the Qi of Creation, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "After more than a hundred years of arduous cultivation, I, Yang Dangmo, have finally broken through to the Golden Core! Hahaha!"
His voice was powerful and stirring, which made the Yang Household Members watching him Tribulation Transcendence smile.
The Yang Household has gained another Golden Core Cultivator today!
