Jiang Ping noticed a slight change in his wife's expression, and he immediately smiled and said:

"Just kidding, I learned it from a little boy and girl."

"Huh?! A boy!"

Chen Qingyan was even more surprised and involuntarily took a step back.

"..." Jiang Ping.

He quickly pulled his wife closer and explained that it was Zhong Shenxiu's younger brother dressed as a woman playing the heavenly music, and he was just one of thousands of listeners.

Boom!

At this moment, the Heavenly Medicine was produced, creating an astonishing phenomenon: Dragon and Phoenix Bring Auspiciousness in the sky, a sign of good fortune.

"The medicine is ready!"

Jiang Ping was overjoyed and took the Heavenly Medicine in his hand to examine it. This large pill was perfectly round and translucent, with a luster.

A strong Medicinal Qi wafted over him, and in an instant, his physical body resonated with it, and his human form and divine essence involuntarily revived, producing a dazzling radiance.

Hiss~

Jiang Ping took a deep breath, inhaling all the Medicinal Qi escaping from the surroundings, making sure not a single drop was wasted, before speaking to his wife:

"Qing Yan, pack your things and bring back Yirou from the Radish Meeting. Once I break through my cultivation barrier, we'll move."

Afterwards, he flew alone to the deserted North Sea to knock on the gate.

Soon.

Jiang Ping traveled far to the depths of the North Sea, where he stood alone in the thick fog.

The cold here is biting, enough to freeze a martial saint, but it has no effect on him whatsoever.

Without hesitation, Jiang Ping consumed the freshly made Heavenly Medicine. Moments later, a powerful warm current surged through his body, causing him to tremble and radiate brilliant golden light from the gods.

Knock knock knock!

As if struck by Dao Sound, in a trance, Jiang Ping saw the myriad spirits within the human body completely revived, opening and closing, igniting divine fire.

In an instant, he felt as if he were being roasted in a furnace, and the power of the gods surged dramatically, like Starfire that gradually evolved into a prairie fire.

At this moment, his body was filled with colorful light, and his internal organs, limbs and bones seemed to be burning.

The Heavenly Medicine primarily strengthens the primordial Primordial Spirit, but it also has effects on the physical body. Jiang Ping clearly felt that his flesh and blood were turning golden, with countless cellular particles surging with divine light and containing boundless power, as if to forge an indestructible golden body.

Click!

Jiang Ping couldn't help but clench his fist lightly, and the space instantly distorted, cracked, and exploded.

He then cut open the flesh and discovered that the body's self-healing ability was astonishing, instantly restoring it to its original state.

"The Path of the Martial Artist lies in the physical body!"

Jiang Ping murmured softly.

In the Spirit Wander Realm, the first Eighth Heaven are dedicated to refining the Primordial Spirit, but the Nine Heavens is where the most powerful manifestation of this realm is achieved. It pursues the Form and Spirit Unite, integrating the power of the Primordial Spirit into the physical body. At that time, it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as an indestructible body.

Of course, he hasn't reached that stage yet; he's only in the initial stages. Right now, his focus is still on refining his spirit.

Click!

Suddenly, a deafening explosion shook the heavens.

Jiang Ping gazed at the sky, which had changed drastically. Dark clouds rolled in, and lightning was visible to the naked eye. The intent of Thunder had already spread, and even he felt a sense of oppression.

After taking the Heavenly Medicine, his divine power had already surpassed its limits, so the Primordial Spirit Tribulation was a natural outcome and had already manifested.

Boom!

A bolt of Purple Lightning, shaped like a water droplet, suddenly descended and struck Jiang Ping.

In an instant, his physical body, which he had just thought was beginning to take shape as an immortal being, exploded and could not be repaired.

Jiang Ping sighed inwardly. Faced with the true Heavenly Might, who would dare claim that their physical body was indestructible?

Whoosh!

Like a raging river, Jiang Ping was immediately terrified. This wasn't a test of lightning; it was clearly meant to make him take a bath in the Thunder River!

The lightning, like an endless waterfall, overwhelmed him instantly.

Cracking and popping sounds rang out constantly. Jiang Ping was charred black and his body was completely cracked open. The Gods of the Human Body dimmed considerably, like a candle flame in a storm, about to be extinguished.

Fortunately, this level of lightning tribulation was no match for him.

Buzz!

Jiang Ping activated the Life True Chapter, and tender skin grew from beneath the charred remains, his body becoming whole again.

However, he was not careless at all; this was the fourth of Four-Nine Tribulation, and the test had only just begun.

Sure enough, the next moment, countless bolts of lightning struck, accompanied by raging flames.

Jiang Ping was stunned. Just now he had used Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire medicine, and now, heaven was using him to "refine medicine," sending down endless Thunder Fire.

Sizzle!

The sea burned, and a large amount of water vapor evaporated. In an instant, the area within a thousand miles was burned away, forming a sea of fire with a diameter of a thousand miles.

In the very center, Jiang Ping was attacked by Thunder Fire, his physical body was charred and withered again, and he felt that his connection with the gods was gradually weakening. The Thunder Fire not only baked his physical body, but also targeted his True Self Body.

Buzz!

At this moment, the Mud Pill True God between Jiang Ping's eyebrows was completely extinguished, and for a time, he seemed unable to even release his Primordial Spirit.

Jiang Ping was moved, his heart pounding.

So this is the Four-Nine Tribulation? It is indeed terrifying enough, far more frightening than the First Tribulation.

"Return!"

Jiang Ping let out a soft shout and activated the Primordial Spirit Secret Manual, the Huangting Scripture.

At the same time, he used the Murong Family's Primordial Spirit Golden Saber to strengthen the connection between his Primordial Spirit and his physical body.

Finally, a golden light appeared between their brows, and the gods gradually returned to their places.

Jiang Ping breathed a sigh of relief. He had survived. His physical body had been transformed amidst the destruction, and his Primordial Spirit had been fully restored and strengthened.

Rumble!

Of course, the heavenly tribulation will continue and won't end so quickly.

Jiang Ping not only demonstrated the mysteries of life but also recited the Primordial Spirit text. He gradually became solemn and sacred, surrounded by a faint radiance, as if he were impervious to Ten Thousand Laws and lightning would retreat.

Soon, the storm subsided.

However, Jiang Ping did not relax in the slightest, because the dark clouds continued to loom overhead, and were growing thicker and thicker.

He looked up and saw that the sea of Thunder was still there, stretching for more than two thousand miles.

Jiang Ping took a deep breath; his Primordial Spirit Tribulation seemed far more terrifying than ordinary spiritual travel.

Sulfuric acid!

A loud, crisp sound suddenly rang in his ears.

The next moment, Jiang Ping was struck dumb, his pupils shrinking sharply.

"My lifespan is over!"

He was shocked, disheartened, and terrified.

Jiang Ping sensed that his lifespan had been reduced, and by a thousand years at that.

Furthermore, his lifespan continued to decline without stopping.

Jiang Ping trembled. This was a method he was skilled at using to Cut Lifespan, and now he was tasting the bitter fruit of it himself.

"Return it!"

He roared, wanting his lifespan to be returned, but it was no use. His body withered, and his Cut Lifespan.

In an instant, his hair turned completely white, he looked Decaying Aura, and his lifespan was far from over.

Next, Jiang Ping tried everything he could, but to no avail; his Life True Chapter had no effect whatsoever.

"This is a calamity that threatens the foundation of Martial Artist!"

Jiang Ping exclaimed in surprise.

Of course, he believed he could break free from these constraints.

However, something unexpected happened. Jiang Ping spent the entire next day trying, but nothing changed.

Moreover, the sky is clear and the calamity has long since ended.

How could this be?

Jiang Ping's expression was somewhat grim. He examined his own condition and realized that he had fully entered old age and was nearing the end of his life, making all sorts of methods ineffective.

His bitter smile was utterly humiliating.

The ability to Cut Lifespan is too ruthless; it severs one's destiny and cuts off one's future.

When he used it on others, seeing their pained expressions filled him with only enjoyment and pride.

But my own experience today brings a completely different feeling; the complex fear is hard to describe.

"I can't possibly fail to survive even the Four-Nine Tribulation, can I?"

Jiang Ping's eyes were glazed over, and he looked somewhat dejected.

He possesses the Enlightenment Minion, always regarding himself highly. He appears humble, but in reality, arrogance is ingrained in his bones. He believes that all calamities can be overcome by force.

But right now, let alone the seven-nine or Nine-Nine Tribulation, he can hardly overcome even the Four-Nine Tribulation.

Jiang Ping's eyes were filled with complex emotions. He was absolutely certain that this was not an illusion, nor a demon in his heart, but something that had actually happened.

He failed to Crossing the Tribulation, and his lifespan is nearing its end.
