Chapter 1 Ominous

The oppressive dark thunder tribulation made one's heart inexplicably heavy.

This was no ordinary heavenly tribulation.

This was the Grand Nihility Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation, even more terrifying than the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, a legendary tribulation.

Looking up.

Thunder dragons gathered into a vast ocean of lightning. A single one of these thunder dragons could directly strike down a powerful Tribulation Transcender.

Gates of thunder emitted suffocating power. When these gates of thunder fell, they could suppress and kill a Mahayana expert.

Even more terrifying were the humanoid lightning bolts. Each humanoid lightning bolt was the embodiment of the strongest beings in the world, copied by the Heavenly Dao and transformed into lightning tribulations.

In other words, each humanoid lightning bolt was an ancient prodigy, inspiring awe.

Throughout the cultivation world, countless cultivators felt prickling sensations on their skin. They trembled in fear, their hearts pounding, their hair standing on end.

Especially since this heavenly tribulation covered the entire cultivation world. If it truly descended, it would be a carpet bombing.

Devastating and cataclysmic wouldn't even begin to describe it.

Within the Great Luo Holy Land.

Lu Changsheng quietly watched the terrifying heavenly tribulation.

He felt somewhat helpless.

And also troubled.

He couldn't undergo the tribulation right now. If he did, even if he succeeded, the world would be destroyed.

"Let's do this later."

Lu Changsheng slowly spoke, saying this.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the heavenly tribulation vanished without a trace.

The sky returned to clarity, the terrifying scene disappeared, and everything was calm again.

In an instant.

Immortal Hongyun: "???"

The cultivators: "???"

Liu Qingfeng: "???"

The Great Luo disciples: "???"

Everyone was dumbfounded, but only the Giant Spirit Immortal couldn't help but nod, saying, "As expected of the young patriarch of the Divine King Clan, his words are law. He said to postpone the heavenly tribulation, and the heavenly tribulation was postponed. It seems I, the Giant Spirit Immortal, have finally chosen the right person."

The Giant Spirit Immortal wasn't shocked. The world was shocked because of their ignorance, but he was different. He was a Golden Immortal and knew too much. The Divine Clan was supreme, let alone the young patriarch of the Divine King Clan?

What was a mere heavenly tribulation?

To be honest, even if this tribulation was ten times stronger, the Giant Spirit Immortal wouldn't think it could bring any trouble to Lu Changsheng.

And within the Great Luo Secret Realm.

Lu Changsheng was in seclusion.

The reason he chose not to undergo the tribulation was, first, it would affect others, and second, because the current situation wasn't suitable.

That's right, not suitable for the tribulation.

In the past five years, Lu Changsheng had eaten all the elixirs and miraculous medicines brought by the Giant Spirit Immortal, and only then had he barely reached the Perfection of Tribulation Transcendence.

Normally, cultivators in the early stages of Tribulation Transcendence would prepare for the tribulation.

However, Lu Changsheng had been suppressing it until the late stages. Logically speaking, he should be undergoing the tribulation now, but Lu Changsheng was very clear.

With his current situation, if he wanted to undergo the tribulation, he could only cheat.

Although he had opened many cheats, to be honest, constantly cheating wasn't very good, right?

Moreover, after reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

Lu Changsheng finally understood his own cultivation method.

Although he still didn't know what his cultivation method was called, after reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, this method had some additional things.

The most important thing mentioned was the foundation.

That's right, the foundation.

According to the records of the cultivation method, Lu Changsheng understood that Qi Refining to Mahayana was actually just laying the foundation.

The founder of the cultivation method believed that cultivation was like building a house. The thicker the foundation, the higher the building that could be built.

Every realm must lay an extremely solid foundation.

Now he had reached the Perfection of Tribulation Transcendence.

But breaking through these realms, besides his own diligence, a tiny bit relied on piling up heavenly treasures.

So he must undergo the thunder tribulation, and he must let go of everything to undergo the thunder tribulation, letting the thunder tribulation cleanse him, so as to achieve a true transformation.

To lay a true supreme foundation.

The foundation of the Great Dao.

Only by completing this step could it be considered perfect.

As for after perfection, he could change his cultivation method, otherwise, no matter how he changed his cultivation method, it would have no effect.

Now, Lu Changsheng had laid the foundation for his physical body and mana.

What he lacked was his state of mind.

Yes, that's right, his state of mind.

There was a fundamental difference between cultivators and mortals.

Mortals would lose themselves because of money.

And cultivators could easily obtain money, so it was even easier for them to lose themselves than mortals.

The consequences of losing oneself were terrifying. The stronger the cultivator, the more likely they were to become obsessed and fall into a desperate situation, possibly going mad.

If they held firm to their original intentions, even if their actions were a bit domineering, it wouldn't be too excessive. What was feared was pursuing power and doing some appalling things, that was truly terrifying.

Throughout history, there had been many such things, and even now such things happened. To refine a treasure, they would sacrifice three thousand three hundred and thirty-three pregnant women, cruelly extracting the fetuses and torturing them to death.

Condensing resentment to cultivate demonic arts.

Such things happened quite often, but under Lu Changsheng's control, the world's sects and forces, led by the Great Luo Holy Land, and established an alliance with the demon and magic sects.

So such things were already very, very rare. Even if they appeared, they were some people who had just entered the path of immortality and had evil intentions.

Unlike before, the methods of the heretics and evil ways were extremely terrifying, resentment soaring, blood flowing like rivers. This was why righteous cultivators looked down on the demon and demon races so much.

Of course, that was a very long time ago.

Therefore, cultivators must refine their minds.

To experience a mortal heart.

This stage was called... Transformation into Mortality (Hua Fan).

That's right, Transformation into Mortality (Hua Fan).

Lu Changsheng didn't plan to undergo the tribulation right now, he planned to Transform into Mortality (Hua Fan) and experience the mortal world.

A great accomplishment in state of mind, perfection of the physical body, and abundant mana, that was the Great Perfection of Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

Only in this state, to meet the heavenly tribulation, was the best.

Thinking of this.

Lu Changsheng waved his hand, and the ninety-nine eighty-one formations in the secret realm completely disappeared.

Leaving the secret realm and arriving outside the Great Luo Palace.

In an instant, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but be surprised.

Because he discovered... Liu Qingfeng had actually returned.

"Qingfeng!"

Lu Changsheng revealed a smile and slowly spoke.

"Master Brother!"

Liu Qingfeng, who was in the Great Luo Holy Land, heard Lu Changsheng's voice and ran over excitedly.

He had a smile on his face.

After five years, Liu Qingfeng's appearance had also changed a bit. He had grown a lot taller, lost the childishness of the past, and gained some maturity.

"Qingfeng, greetings, Senior Brother!"

Outside the Great Luo Palace.

Liu Qingfeng was extremely excited as he gazed at the man before him.

Five years!

Still so handsome and extraordinary.

Five years!

Still so captivating.

"Qingfeng, in these five years, how are you only in the Combination Realm (He Ti Jing)? You have to work harder, or the later disciples will surpass you."

Lu Changsheng slowly spoke, with a calm smile.

Liu Qingfeng: "???"

For some reason.

Seeing Liu Qingfeng's expression, Lu Changsheng's mood became much more pleasant.
