Array Resists Heavenly Lightning, Longevity Pill Completed

"Alright." Though Di Tian did not know Yun Ze's purpose, he obediently did as instructed.

With a raise of his hand, he used Soul Power to lift all fifteen metal pieces and place them into the liquid Soul Power.

Seeing that the barrier was like liquid, allowing objects to pass through easily, Di Tian felt uncertain. Could this really withstand lightning?

"Rumble!" The lightning in the sky seemed to have finished gathering. A deafening boom rang out as a bolt of purple lightning crashed down from the heavens.

The main bolt was as thick as a water bucket, twisting and winding irregularly, with countless branching arcs around it. Its momentum was immense, as though it could split a mountain apart.

The lightning struck the circular liquid Soul Power as though a clay ox had fallen into the sea. No matter how powerful its impact, it could not stir up much disturbance.

The tiny vortices spun at high speed as the descending lightning covered them and was rapidly absorbed. The thick lightning bolt, originally brimming with power, was continuously devoured by the Soul Power vortices. Some Soul Power was scattered by the impact, but its overall shape remained intact and suffered no serious damage. The absorbed lightning flowed through the liquid Soul Power, turning into electric snakes that swam about within it, fierce and vicious as they darted at lightning speed.

The fifteen pieces of Spiritual Metal became the targets of the electric snakes. Countless electric snakes bit down on the metal, dyeing the flame metal purple-red.

Di Tian and the others, who had already prepared to defend against the lightning, abruptly froze and stared blankly at the Soul Power liquid above them.

"Rumble!" Another bolt of lightning struck down, thicker and fiercer than the last, carrying an intense Destruction Aura.

It was still like a stone falling into a swamp, barely splashing any liquid Soul Power. The lightning was absorbed by the liquid Soul Power and transformed into electric snakes that surged toward the Spiritual Metal.

Not only were the Spiritual Metals unafraid of the electric snakes, they even revealed excited emotions, like children seeing food and cheering joyfully.

They greedily absorbed the lightning. This immensely destructive electricity became nourishment for them.

"Rumble! Rumble!" Two deafening crashes rang out, making it feel as though space itself had shattered and the entire world was filled with lightning.

The liquid Soul Power was semi-transparent, and Di Tian and the others vaguely saw the two thick bolts of lightning descending from the sky. They immediately grew tense and took defensive stances.

The condensed liquid Soul Power withstood the test. The two bolts of lightning could do nothing to it.

"Don't be nervous. Lightning of this level can't damage the array," Yun Ze said calmly.

"Bear Lord, inject Soul Power into my body."

"Alright." Bear Lord was slow to react by a few beats, then hurriedly converted his Soul Power into attributeless energy and injected it into Yun Ze's body.

Yun Ze continued focusing on Pill Refining, paying no attention to the lightning. His demeanor gave the impression that everything was under control.

As he watched the liquid Soul Power block every bolt of descending lightning, Di Tian gradually grew excited. His heart burned with passion, as though he had seen hope.

He had always suppressed his nine-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation. Lacking confidence, he had not dared to face it.

Yet the miraculous array Yun Ze had set up now gave him hope. If he had an even stronger array protecting him when facing the heavenly tribulation, then he...

At the thought of this, even Di Tian could not fully control himself. His breathing became hurried.

Bi Ji seemed to have thought of the same thing. She took Di Tian's hand, and the two looked at each other, both understanding what the other was thinking.

Gu Yue Na gazed at Yun Ze's back with her beautiful eyes for a long while, an unconscious smile appearing on her face.

Half an hour later, the lightning stopped falling. The thunderclouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and this heavenly tribulation receded.

The hemispherical liquid Soul Power below remained intact, looking completely unharmed. The heavenly tribulation had failed to do anything to it.

Yun Ze removed the conical metal at the center, and the array instantly lost its energy. The gathered liquid Soul Power began dispersing in all directions.

Highly concentrated Soul Power spread through the area, making the air incomparably fresh. Taking a light breath made one feel utterly refreshed.

The Soul Power was indeed dense, but it contained lightning and was unsuitable for absorption or cultivation.

The Pill Furnace landed on the ground. This Pill Refining process, which had lasted more than four days, was finally over. The heavenly tribulation had dispersed, and the pills were complete.

Before the furnace was opened, no scent leaked out. All the pill fragrance had been sealed inside the Pill Furnace.

"Yun Ze." Gu Yue Na stepped forward at once and supported the somewhat overdrawn Yun Ze. Seeing his weary face, she was full of distress.

"I'm fine." Yun Ze waved his hand and took six Jade White Jade Bottles from his Storage Ring, handing them to Gu Yue Na.

"Help me put the pills from the Pill Furnace away."

"Miss, I'll do it." Bi Ji stepped forward voluntarily and took on the task of storing the pills.

Gu Yue Na naturally did not object. She handed the jade bottles to her while continuing to support Yun Ze.

The Pill Furnace opened, and an unusual fragrance immediately drifted out. The rich aroma made every pore on their bodies open, as though even their souls had been elevated.

Bi Ji used Soul Power to place six lychee-sized, pale-green pills into the Jade White Jade Bottles.

One of them was to be given to Gu Ming, while the other five would be auctioned off.

When Bi Ji saw the six smooth, plump pills with their gleaming surfaces, her eyes were filled with envy. When would she possess such Pill Refining skill herself?

Di Tian came to Yun Ze's side, using Soul Power to hold up the fifteen pieces of Spiritual Metal that had undergone lightning baptism.

Lightning flickered across the surfaces of all fifteen metal pieces, crackling like popping beans. Their energy was somewhat violent.

There were not many visible changes on the surfaces of the metals, but in truth, their overall strength and toughness had improved greatly, and they had become even more spiritual.

"Did you summon that heavenly tribulation just now?" Gu Yue Na asked the question she had wanted to ask all along.

Yun Ze shook his head, looked at the jade bottles in Bi Ji's hands, and said, "More accurately, it was summoned by them."

Gu Yue Na, Di Tian, and the others all turned their gazes toward the Jade White Jade Bottles.

"The lifespan of living beings follows nature. Its length is determined by heaven. To defy heaven and alter one's lifespan naturally invites heaven's punishment."

"One year of lifespan does not have much impact, but a hundred years is no small amount for a person. The rules of the world do not permit it."

"That is why the heavenly tribulation descended, to destroy these pills. I set up this array in advance because I expected a heavenly tribulation and prepared for it," Yun Ze said slowly.

After several days without rest, even his voice had become somewhat hoarse.

In truth, he had not merely prepared defenses. He had also made use of the heavenly tribulation, using Thunder Tempering to improve the quality of the Spiritual Metal.

"So that's how it is." Gu Yue Na and the others understood, their doubts resolved.

"Young Master, how powerful a heavenly tribulation can this Thunder Resistance Array of yours withstand at its strongest?" Di Tian asked eagerly.

Bi Ji and Bear Lord both looked at Yun Ze with anticipation and nervousness, afraid of hearing a disappointing answer.

Yun Ze understood what they were thinking. After considering for a moment, he said, "Once I reach Soul King cultivation, the array I set up will be enough to withstand a heavenly tribulation at the god-level."

His basis for judgment came from the power he had initially sensed from Gu Yue Na. According to her, that was god-level power.

"Really?" Di Tian and the others cried out in unison, unable to contain their excitement. Yun Ze's words were equivalent to removing the mountain of death weighing on them.

Gu Yue Na also smiled brightly. For soul beasts, this was nothing less than tremendous news. It meant they would no longer need to fear heavenly tribulations.
