Overbearingly Powerful, the Chaos Ruins

"Hehe, for a cultivator in the Golden Core Stage to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, they must undergo nine Lightning Tribulation. Only by passing the Lightning Tribulation can they break through to the Golden Core Stage. After the Golden Core Stage, they need to undergo another tribulation. Once they pass the Lightning Tribulation, they will have reached the Golden Core Stage!" Laojun stroked his beard and said slowly.

"What? Nine Lightning Tribulation? How is that possible?" Upon hearing Laojun's words, Sun Wukong's expression changed drastically, and he said in disbelief.

"That's right. After the Golden Core Stage, one needs to undergo tribulation. All of these are necessary steps. Therefore, the Golden Core Stage is an important place of transformation for cultivators. In this process, if one fails to undergo tribulation, one may die directly, or even be completely destroyed!"

Therefore, the danger of undergoing tribulation is no less than that of a natural disaster; once you fail, it's all over!

"And that's why, on the Primordial World Continent, no one has ever been known to successfully overcome the Lightning Tribulation after reaching the Golden Core Stage!" Laojun nodded and continued to explain to Sun Wukong.

"So this is the difference between Golden Core Stage cultivator and Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator!" Sun Wukong exclaimed in sudden realization.

Just then, Laojun took out another Jade Slip and handed it to Sun Wukong, saying, "Sun Li, this Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales is the method of cultivation!"

Place it in an Acupoints on your body and circulate it once. You will then be able to feel the nine divine runes within. Once the nine divine runes have condensed and formed, you can unleash the Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales. At that time, your physical strength will undergo a tremendous change and will be greatly amplified. You can give it a try!

After speaking, Laojun handed the Jade Slip in his hand to Sun Wukong.

Sun Wukong took the Jade Slip from Laojun and carefully examined the patterns on it. The Jade Slip was engraved with small golden characters, and each of these characters was covered with countless golden runes, which looked like tadpoles. They were very intricate and complex. Moreover, these golden characters also exuded a faint sense of pressure, which made Sun Wukong feel a strong sense of threat.

However, Sun Wukong was not afraid; on the contrary, he was very excited because he felt that these nine Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales were much more powerful than the Vajra Demon-Subduing Incantation he had previously cultivated, and that the Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales were even more mysterious than the Demon-Subduing Incantation.

Sun Wukong couldn't help but recall the Vajra Demon-Subduing Incantation he had learned from Son Gohan. That Vajra Demon-Subduing Incantation was also a metal-attribute attack method, while the Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales was a water-attribute method, the best cultivation Cultivation Method for cultivators with metal Spirit Root. These two cultivation methods complemented each other and achieved the best results!

"Wukong, quickly circulate this Cultivation Method and see how it works!" Seeing Sun Wukong deep in thought, Laojun spoke up.

"Oh, okay!" Sun Wukong readily agreed, then placed the Jade Slip against his chest, closed his eyes, and began to slowly circulate the Nine Transformations of the Golden Scales Cultivation Method. As he circulated the Cultivation Method, Sun Wukong's expression constantly changed, sometimes rosy, sometimes bluish-black, sometimes pale, showing the shock in Sun Wukong heart. However, soon, a joyful expression appeared on his face, followed by a flash of excitement between his brows, and a fanatical look on his face!

"Boom!" Sun Wukong opened his eyes, and a powerful aura erupted from his body, along with a dense flame that burst forth and burned fiercely.

"Haha, the Golden Body Instruction, the Golden Body Instruction, truly worthy of being the treasure of the High Antiquity Witch Race, its power is indeed formidable!" Seeing this, Sun Wukong's face was filled with excitement, and he laughed heartily.

"Sun Li, you have already mastered the Golden Body Instruction to a minor degree. However, you still need some time to truly master Golden Body Instruction. But during this time, you don't need to worry. Your physical strength will be greatly enhanced, which is a good thing for you!" Seeing this, Laojun couldn't help but show a gratified smile and said to Sun Wukong.

"Hehe, thank you, Laojun!" Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong gratefully bowed to Laojun.

"Alright, Wukong, go and get your Nine- Revolutions Golden Elixir!" Laojun said with a smile to Sun Wukong, then waved his hand, indicating that Laojun Sun Wukong could leave.

"Yes, teacher!" Upon hearing Laojun's words, Sun Wukong stopped and respectfully replied. Then, his body flickered and vanished instantly.

"Teacher, look at what this is! Those people are trying to steal those celestial beasts!" Not long after Sun Wukong left, in Laojun's cave abode, under the chair where Sun Wukong and Laojun had been sitting, an old man in a green robe slowly crawled out from under the chair. Upon seeing this, Laojun couldn't help but speak to Laojun.

"Hehe, I guess it's because their cultivation paths were disrupted. Perhaps they obtained some treasures in the Chaos Ruins. But in any case, our plan is complete. Now, I can also go and explore the Chaos Ruins!" Laojun smiled slightly and said slowly.

Having said that, Laojun stood up, slowly walked to the window, looked at the dark night sky in the distance, and then Laojun figure twisted and turned. The next second, he appeared outside the cave abode. Laojun stood at the entrance of the cave abode, looking at the distant horizon, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. With a flicker, he flew away into the distance.

"Buzz!" A trembling sound rang out in the void, and then Laojun disappeared into the void. As soon as Laojun left, several powerful figures appeared outside Sun Wukong's residence. They were the cultivators.

"Hmph, this Sun Wukong is indeed quite powerful. Even with several of us joining forces, we couldn't kill him. Instead, he escaped. This little monkey is no ordinary person!" One of the men looked in the direction Sun Wukong had just left and couldn't help but sneer.

"Hehe, although Sun Wukong is powerful, the few of us working together are still confident we can kill him. However, we don't want that little monkey to know our whereabouts, so we can't kill him!" A woman said to the man with a smile.

"However, since Sun Wukong is so powerful, we should still be careful. After all, Sun Wukong's not someone to mess with!" A middle-aged man, his eyes gleaming, gazed at the distant sky and said in a deep voice.

"That's right, we should still be careful. After all, this is the Chaos Ruins, where some powerful creatures can appear. If we're not careful, we might perish there!" The woman nodded slightly and said.
