Ling Xuanxiao slew Fanyue.

This severed his final path of reincarnation.

Karma descended upon him, granting immeasurable merit.

And it happened at the most critical and sensitive moment of tribulation.

Thus, the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation, which should have ended, underwent a change.

The lightning changed color.

The Six-Nine Great Heavenly Tribulation, this should be the lightning tribulation cultivators experience when their Nascent Soul emerges, divided into six lightning tribulations.

The power of each lightning tribulation was more formidable than the Four-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation.

Ling Xuanxiao watched this scene, his brow furrowed tightly.

Things seemed to be getting interesting...

It wasn't a waste of his efforts to go to such great lengths and prepare meticulously.

For this tribulation, the materials Ling Xuanxiao had compiled were enough to fill several books.

"Foundation Establishment in Five Years, Golden Core in Three"

"Must-Know Trivia for Golden Core"

"Practice Makes Perfect"

"..."

Although everything that happened today was the result of countless coincidences colliding, Ling Xuanxiao had already made the worst-case scenario preparations beforehand, so this was still within controllable limits.

Ling Xuanxiao swallowed a pill.

Beneath his tattered Daoist Robe was another Daoist Robe.

A total of three Daoist Robes.

The undershirt was also woven from spiritual energy-infused rubber, over two hundred years old.

It could effectively resist the impact of the lightning tribulation.

Under the undershirt was a vest, also a magical item.

Beneath the vest was another vest, and only then came the Flood Dragon Armor.

Ling Xuanxiao arranged his Treasure Artifacts one by one.

He touched the jade pendant rumored to increase luck points.

He squeezed the Daoist sect's safety talisman...

He then picked up a spray bottle and sprayed a few times around himself.

Don't misunderstand, this wasn't perfume.

It was a medicinal powder that could increase the speed of spiritual energy condensation in the surroundings, attracting it rapidly.

"BOOM—!!"

With a world-shattering roar, as if the entire world trembled.

The long-brewing tribulation, like an enraged purple dragon, roared and descended from the heavens, charging directly at Ling Xuanxiao below.

Instantly, dazzling purple lightning engulfed Ling Xuanxiao's figure.

The violent lightning power, like a surging torrent, ravaged everything around him with wild abandon.

Space itself seemed to warp and distort under this immense energy, emitting a heart-stopping hum.

"..."

"Whoa!!"

"Quick, get away!"

"What's going on? This tribulation isn't over yet?"

The cultivators in the distance, who had initially been watching out of curiosity, were now as if under a spell, staring at the sky with wide eyes and faces full of disbelief.

They never imagined that the lightning tribulation, which should have dissipated into nothingness, would undergo such an astonishing change at this moment!

Above them, the lightning, which had already begun to gradually weaken and was almost disappearing, suddenly seemed to be injected with an incredibly powerful force, becoming incomparably violent in an instant.

Foundation Establishment to Golden Core.

The Golden Cores that could be refined were divided into grades one through five.

Those with exceptional talent aimed for a First-grade Golden Core.

However, beyond the first grade, few knew of it.

"It's a Supreme-grade Golden Core!"

At this moment, an old man muttered to himself.

The surrounding cultivators instinctively looked over.

Upon seeing, they were immediately startled.

The old man limped on one leg, leaning on a cane, with only a few strands of hair fluttering in the wind on his forehead.

The cultivators beside him were either missing an arm or an eye...

It was Heavenly Cripple and Earthly Defect!!

They were notorious Evil Cultivators from the Jiangbei region, rumored to be hunted by the Jiangbei Alliance.

Who would have thought they'd run all the way here.

"Let's go, get away from them."

As the cultivator finished speaking, he let out a scream.

His eyes were suddenly gouged out, and Feng Sanniang smiled charmingly.

She looked at the cultivator's companion.

The companion hesitated for a moment before turning and fleeing.

Feng Sanniang tutted, "People are so cold-hearted. What good brothers, abandoning you the moment trouble arises."

The limping old man said in a deep voice, "That's a Supreme-grade Golden Core. No one is protecting him. When the Heavenly Tribulation ends, he will be at his weakest. We'll kill him and take the core!!"

"Yes!"

The several subordinates around him responded in unison.

The thunder tribulations continued to strike down.

At this moment, Ling Xuanxiao's Daoist Robe and inner lining had all turned to ash.

Only the Dragon Scale Armor still protected him.

This Acquired Spirit Treasure was indeed effective.

Fanyue had truly gone all out this time.

Putting itself on the line.

First, it gave Ling Xuanxiao the Dragon Scale Armor.

Then, it actively allowed itself to be killed by Ling Xuanxiao during his tribulation, helping him gain immeasurable merit.

Anyone who saw this wouldn't say:

"You should make friends with Fanyue!!"

"This should be the last one."

Ling Xuanxiao looked up at the sky.

He took a deep breath and raised his hands.

As his hands moved, they drew smooth arcs in the air, gradually intertwining to form a perfect circular trajectory.

Within these hands, a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed, gradually converging into a clearly visible golden character - "Dao"!

It floated quietly around him, creating a subtle resonance with the surrounding air.

"Cough, cough, cough!!"

As Ling Xuanxiao coughed out a large amount of blood.

The puppet scorpion behind him fired silver needles, piercing his acupoints.

The silver needles had been soaked in medicinal herbs beforehand.

"Again!"

He could feel the Golden Core within his body, just one more push away from perfection.

The final thunder tribulation descended from the heavens with a roar.

In this suffocating radiance, everything was swallowed without a trace.

Mountains, rivers, forests, and even all living things lost their original colors under the terrifying lightning.

The intense current intertwined in the air, forming a dense electric net that caused landslides and earth fissures wherever it went...

"Not good!"

Ling Xuanxiao thought to himself.

He had carefully chosen this place to undergo his tribulation, far from human settlements.

This was to prevent harming others during the tribulation.

It would also prevent him from accumulating karma by implicating innocent lives.

But with this momentum, how many spirits and plants were in this mountain?

If they were affected, innocent lives would be harmed.

He would still be implicated by the consequences…

Thinking of this, Li Xuanxiao flickered and left his tribulation-crossing location, drawing the lightning into the air.

"……"

"Big Brother, why is he suddenly charging into the lightning tribulation?" Feng Sanniang asked, confused.

The old man with the limp snorted, "These righteous cultivators are compassionate. They can't bear to see others implicated by their tribulation, so they're willing to risk their own tribulation failing."

Feng Sanniang raised an eyebrow. "A fine gentleman. I'm best at dealing with people like this. Big Brother, I have a great idea!"

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author. Maybe they just changed the name!
