Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 723 - 338: Nascent Soul Formation (Part 2)
In this wondrous process of fusion, a vague ghostly image began to emerge.
This prototype was initially as ethereal as smoke, but as time passed, it gradually became tangible and clear.
Finally, it transformed into a three-inch long cyan Spirit Infant, resembling a childlike Xu Ping, yet with a touch of spiritual vitality and innocence.
Ultimately, that hint of blue light transformed into a three-inch long cyan Spirit Infant, resembling a childlike Xu Ping, yet with a touch of spiritual vitality and innocence.
This Nascent Soul’s face was as exquisite as a sculpture, surrounded by blue spiritual light, with an aura pure and profound, intimately connected with Xu Ping’s mind and spirit.
"The Nascent Soul has formed!"
Xu Ping’s heart was filled with joy, yet he quickly returned to calm.
The Nascent Soul forming was just the first step; next, he would have to face both the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation and the Heart Demon Tribulation to truly step into the threshold of the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Junior Brother Yan has succeeded!"
Meanwhile, outside the earthly palace, True Monarch Lan Ling stood on the cloud, sensing the aura of this newly formed Nascent Soul immediately.
Her brows slightly relaxed, and a trace of joy flickered in her eyes.
Xu Ping successfully condensing a Nascent Soul was not surprising to True Monarch Lan Ling.
After all, Xu Ping had a deep foundation, plus the assistance of the Nascent Soul Pill, hence encountering any difficulty would be surprising.
Successfully passing this step meant the pressure Xu Ping would endure in the upcoming Thunder Tribulation would be much less.
After the successful nurturing of the Nascent Soul, Xu Ping had a brief adjustment period to allow his internal mana to be driven by the Nascent Soul, completely transforming into Nascent Soul Level mana.
In this stage, Xu Ping still performed steadily, the whole process flowing effortlessly without the slightest hitch.
However, the instant Xu Ping’s internal mana completed its transformation, the celestial phenomena outside abruptly changed!
Woosh! Sizzle!
High above in the sky, tribulation clouds began brewing, thunder light rolling, and electric serpents writhing.
The once-clear sky turned pitch black in the blink of an eye, as though the end times had arrived.
Xu Ping looked up at the gray tribulation clouds roiling in the sky, and although he was confident about overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation, he was still startled by the vast power of heaven and earth.
The thunder clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, as dark as ink, pressing down overwhelmingly.
Deep within the clouds, lightning flashed as if hundreds of Thunder Dragons were tumbling, accumulating earth-shattering power.
Crackle!
The first Heavenly Thunder split through the nine heavens, its cyan-white lightning seemingly tearing the dark sky like a celestial blade striking directly towards Xu Ping within the earthly palace. This lightning was incredibly swift, reaching before him in the blink of an eye.
"Perfect, I’ll use you to break through to the Fourth Rank of Body Refining!"
A glimmer flashed in Xu Ping’s eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile instead.
Swish!
Within the earthly palace, only a residual cyan shadow was left as Xu Ping actively faced the striking thunder.
Boom!
The Heavenly Thunder descended, seemingly tearing a rift in the void.
In the blinding thunder light, Xu Ping’s figure was completely engulfed.
Sizzle...
Confronting the Heavenly Thunder, Xu Ping immediately deployed the Thunder Transformation Pearl.
The silvery-white treasure bead radiated brilliantly, flying from the palm to hover three feet above the head.
On the bead, runes flowed, releasing a semi-transparent ripple force field, cleverly guiding the Heavenly Thunder along a specific path, striking Xu Ping’s body.
Boom!
An expanse of electric arcs dispersed, the Thunder Power surging like thousands of silver snakes entering the body, traversing along the meridians.
The terrifying Thunder Power impacted every inch of Xu Ping’s skin, each of his meridians, bringing unimaginable pain.
Under the intense pain, Xu Ping couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan, yet in his eyes was a gleam of joy.
Under the tempering of the Heavenly Thunder, Xu Ping felt his long stagnant physique and vitality slowly advancing, his muscles and bones seemingly being reshaped within the thunder, becoming more resilient and powerful.
"Excellent!"
Though the thunder left Xu Ping charred, the gleam in his eyes grew ever brighter.
Mere moments later, a flash of blue light surged around him, and all his injuries instantly recovered as before, with life force within even more vigorous. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Xu Ping’s skin became translucent and clear, the flowing blood beneath faintly visible, akin to the finest mutton-fat jade.
...
"Is Junior Brother Yan tempering his body with the Heavenly Tribulation?"
From afar atop the clouds, True Monarch Lan Ling witnessed everything, her beautiful eyes filled with incredulity.
Others facing the Heavenly Tribulation were ever cautious, fearing annihilation beneath the heavenly thunder.
Even when rare talents attempted to temper their bodies with the tribulation, it was mostly with the remaining power when the tribulation was nearly over.
But Junior Brother Yan, he actually confronted the first strike of thunder, using the most violent power to temper his body directly?
Is this the audacity of a master?
Or ignorance of the heights of heaven and the vastness of earth?
True Monarch Lan Ling bit her lip, wanting to issue a reminder, yet held back.
Junior Brother Yan wasn’t a reckless person; he must have the confidence to act so.
...
The heavens raged, thunderous penalties rained down.
Five cyan-white startling Heavenly Thunders, each more fierce than the last, carrying dreadful power capable of incinerating all, crashed toward the earthly palace’s peak where that tiny figure stood.
Xu Ping’s face was composure like still water, enduring intense pain, leveraging the Thunder Transformation Pearl’s properties, using a unique method to guide the Thunder Power to temper himself.
Though he was struck, battered and bruised, with formidable recovery ability and a steadily strengthening body, he forcibly withstood the Heavenly Thunder.
Finally!
When that fifth strike, the most brutal one, carrying the momentum of mountain-crushing and sea-splitting, plunged fiercely down.
Boom!
Xu Ping’s entire body suddenly erupted with tsunami-like crimson-golden vitality.
The intensity and magnitude of that vitality actually formed a visible wave of energy outside his body, vibrating outward with a roar.
Even far atop the clouds, True Monarch Lan Ling felt the cloud at her feet ripple, her elegant skirt fluttering in the wind.
"Junior Brother Yan... he actually used the Heavenly Thunder as a hammer, forcibly forging his body to the Fourth Rank!"
