#594 - Advanced Yuanying Early Stage
Even more shocking was that Li Chengfeng's nascent soul was wearing a terrifying suit of armor formed from the power of wandering souls, with intricate patterns on it.
Each pattern seemed to contain the joys, sorrows, and endless pain of wandering souls, inspiring awe. Above his head, a ring slowly rotated, within which evil spirits roared, shaking the surroundings with terrifying intensity.
Li Chengfeng knew that his advancement this time was no small matter. The armor and ring were both formed naturally by his cultivation technique, not intentionally created by him, yet they already displayed astonishing power.
He dared not slacken in the slightest, forming hand seals and unleashing countless incantations towards the nine slowly rotating subsidiary golden cores.
As the incantations landed, the subsidiary golden cores also began to wriggle, eventually transforming into nine three-inch-tall nascent souls amidst a series of explosions.
They were equally powerful, each comparable to the nascent soul of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and each carrying a portion of Li Chengfeng's will and power.
At that moment, Li Chengfeng seemed to possess ten nascent souls, each containing astonishing potential and power. His cultivation and strength achieved a qualitative leap at that moment.
As Li Chengfeng's cultivation leaped again, not only did his nine blood shadows transform into Nascent Soul stage cultivators with the same origin as him, but these blood shadows also instantly merged into his body, becoming a part of his power.
At the same time, his Dharma form gradually solidified, and the flying swords returned to his dantian, rotating around the ten nascent souls. The nascent soul's infant fire continuously tempered the sixteen flying swords, greatly increasing their power.
Li Chengfeng's dantian space expanded dozens of times as a result, and the sea of mana surged, as if mountains were collapsing and the sea was roaring, its quality undergoing a qualitative leap.
However, he was not satisfied with this. Instead, he used the opportunity here and the Dao luck of his advancement to continue consolidating his cultivation.
With a wave of his hand, countless pills fell into his mouth like stars, eventually turning into pure cultivation, which was devoured by the ten nascent souls one by one, helping them grow.
Even more astonishing was that the surrounding dark power seemed to have found an outlet, pouring into Li Chengfeng's body frantically, even benefiting his inner demons greatly, providing them with unprecedented nourishment.
As Li Chengfeng's Life Realm space and Hell Realm space rapidly expanded, reaching millions of acres, the two major spaces were like two huge vortexes, frantically devouring the dark power here.
Within the Life Realm space, all things grew, full of vitality, while the Hell Realm space was filled with ghostly energy, gloomy and terrifying. The two reached unprecedented harmony and balance in mutual transformation.
The ghostly energy of the Hell Realm space, nourished by the dark power, became more concentrated and pure. They shuttled through the space like living things, bringing unprecedented vitality to the Hell Realm.
And this vitality, through some mysterious means, was transformed into pure power, feeding back to the Life Realm space, so that the two major spaces complemented each other, forming a perfect cycle system.
Li Chengfeng's power, driven by this force, once again achieved a qualitative leap.
He could clearly feel the surging of power within his body, a kind of unprecedented strength and confidence. He knew that all these changes stemmed from his deep understanding and application of the laws of space.
And the Ghost Tree within the Hell Realm space was even more overjoyed. Every one of its leaves was trembling with excitement, as if cheering for this sudden change.
As the space expanded, its living space was also greatly improved, allowing it to grow and reproduce more freely.
As for the Blood Pool, it also benefited greatly, its power and size constantly increasing with the expansion of space.
The Dragon Wizard, this former powerhouse, could only sit on a branch of the Ghost Tree at this moment, appearing unusually small and helpless.
He felt the changes in the entire world and secretly praised Li Chengfeng's strength and potential.
He knew that his current situation completely depended on Li Chengfeng's will, so he could only stay obediently and dare not act rashly in the slightest.
Although the Dragon Wizard was half-dead at the moment, his heart was full of hope and expectation.
He believed that as long as Li Chengfeng could fulfill his promise, he would one day regain his freedom and realize his ideals and ambitions.
Therefore, he chose to wait silently, waiting for that day to come.
This scene shocked and delighted the three Restriction cultivators present, including Long Tianqi.
The spiritual energy of the ecological space became more concentrated. Liu Rushuang, Old Demon, and others, including the little fox demon Yaoqi and the little Vermilion Bird, all benefited greatly. Each improvement in Dao luck allowed them to grow.
Lou Lan, who had been stuck in the Qi Refining stage of puppetry, suddenly entered the Foundation Establishment stage with the help of magnetism.
His eyes were bright and he was extremely excited. The path Li Chengfeng chose for him was indeed the correct one.
Long Tianqi was even more relieved and praised, "Young Master is indeed extraordinary. The power of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage is so vast. I am afraid that I can no longer keep up with him now."
The adjutant and other cultivators also nodded, their hearts filled with awe and expectation for Li Chengfeng.
However, Long Tianqi did not completely relax his vigilance because of this. He reminded, "There is still a more difficult hurdle, and that is the inner demons of the Nascent Soul stage.
The power of inner demons increases with the improvement of cultivation, and its power should not be underestimated."
As soon as these words came out, the adjutant and other cultivators could not help but show worry on their faces. They knew the horror of the suffering of inner demons.
Sure enough, as Li Chengfeng's cultivation stabilized, his inner demon became more and more powerful, as if another self walked out of the darkness, with an arrogant and invincible attitude and power.
However, to everyone's surprise, Li Chengfeng's inner demon not only did not become an obstacle, but instead took the initiative to attack, devouring the power of that dark inner demon with a more aggressive posture.
It turned out that within the sea of consciousness, Li Chengfeng had already laid a net, waiting for the inner demon to enter the urn.
He raised his hand and pointed, and the seal of heaven and earth fell in response, firmly trapping the dark inner demon, and then began a ruthless devouring.
After devouring the dark inner demon, Li Chengfeng's inner demon became more powerful and unrestrained.
He laughed heartily, as if he had already stood at the peak of cultivation: "My inner demon is invincible!"
There was confidence and arrogance in this laughter, but more of it was expectation and desire for infinite possibilities in the future.
In that biting cold wind, Li Chengfeng's inner demon seemed to be gently plucked by an invisible hand, trembling involuntarily, and finally dared not act rashly in the slightest, quietly disappearing into the shadows of his figure.
A strange throbbing surged in his heart, like an undercurrent surging under the abyss, foreshadowing an unknown storm about to sweep in.
At this moment, his Nascent Soul stage cultivation had not yet stabilized. This sudden palpitation, like the brightest star in the night sky, guided him to an unknown abyss, but also carried an ominous premonition.
All around, the Netherworld Space seemed to sense this power about to erupt, and suddenly bloomed with a dazzling light, penetrating layers of darkness and illuminating this dead place.
Immediately afterwards, above the sky, dark clouds were densely covered, and thunderclouds slowly gathered. That was the wrath of the heavens, a sign that the thunder tribulation was coming.
An indescribable pressure from the heavens descended from the sky, like hundreds of millions of majestic mountains, heavily stacked on Li Chengfeng's shoulders, making it almost impossible for him to breathe, but he could not escape. He could only grit his teeth and resist, his eyes flashing with unyielding light.
"What about the heavens?"
He uttered these words in a low and firm voice. Although the voice was soft, it seemed to contain the power to shake the heavens and the earth. "I, Li Chengfeng, an ordinary body, seek nothing but immortality and have never done anything wrong.
If the heavens block my path to immortality, then it is my enemy! What do I have to fear?"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and concentrated, and the Nine Revolutions Thunder Tribulation Art in his body quickly circulated, and special forces agitated in his body, converging into a river, scouring his meridians and bones.
Only to see the bones on his back making bursts of crisp sounds, like dragons roaring and tigers roaring, and thunder light flashing and jumping in between, as if to forge his entire person into an indestructible magic weapon.
"He actually attracted the thunder tribulation in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. This is an act against the heavens!"
The onlookers were all shocked and discolored, and Long Tianqi and others were even more stunned, looking at this scene in disbelief.
They knew that the thunder tribulation was a major test on the path of cultivators advancing, often appearing in the late Nascent Soul stage or even higher realms, and Li Chengfeng encountered such a catastrophe in the early Nascent Soul stage, which shows his talent and potential.
"Triple thunder tribulation! This... How is this possible!" Long Tianqi murmured to himself, his eyes full of shock and worry.
Triple thunder tribulation has almost never appeared in the history of the human world. Even in the records in ancient books, there are only a few strokes, mentioning those amazing and talented geniuses.
At this moment, this legendary catastrophe is about to fall on Li Chengfeng alone, and the degree of danger can be imagined.
"Young Master, can he withstand it?"
Everyone was secretly worried, but they could only pray silently. Under the thunder and lightning, the first thunder tribulation descended with a bang. This was just the prelude to the thunderstorm. The sky full of thunder light wrapped in rumbling, directly crushing towards Li Chengfeng.
Li Chengfeng laughed loudly and said, "Come, come, let me personally experience the power of this thunder tribulation. Don't let me underestimate you!"
After saying that, his laughter became louder, and his chest was full of pride at this moment.
To cultivate the Nine Lives Thunder Tribulation, one needs a fearless heart, otherwise the Dao will be difficult to stabilize, how can one withstand this supreme and masculine thunder strike?
