Chapter 308: Heavenly Tribulation Again
"The Supreme Gods of this world can use the power of Law?" asked Li Jun with a hint of astonishment as he looked at the Shadow in front of him. "So, I was right to be cautious."
The information brought back from the Shadow did bring the group a bit of surprise.
"With the strange cultivation system and the powerful crystal wall, this world must have a big secret. And most likely this secret involves a Great Emperor," commented Wang Ju.
The others nodded their heads. They were truly surprised by the fact that the God Cultivation System allowed cultivators in a Middle Thousand World to control the power of Law.
More importantly, the lifespan granted by this system is truly exaggerated. According to the information that they received, a True God can live up to 5 million years. That kind of lifespan is only possible for Supreme Realm True Monarchs back on their world.
"So, what do we do now?" asked Yan Liling.
"We can distribute the cultivation methods to all the realms to reveal the hypocrisy of these Gods and weaken them," said Tie Gang.
Yan Liling and Wang Ju’s eyes lit up after hearing this as this was a good method. By doing this, they can directly attack the source of the power of these Gods: their believers.
With more people competing to become Gods, the more intense the competition, and the fewer believers to divide between them. This would instead lead to infighting between them and reducing their power.
Unfortunately, Li Jun shook his head in disagreement.
"If we only wanted to conquer this world, this would not be a problem. However, do not forget that we also need to gather faith for big brother’s plan to work.
"So, if we follow such a plan, this would lead to chaos, and chaos will lead to the death of countless ordinary people who are potential believers. The best option is to conquer this world with as few mortal casualties as possible."
"In that case, do you have a plan?" asked Yan Liling.
Li Jun did not immediately answer. He waved his hand to show an image or a map in front of everyone. The image had 36 circles with different names written in the middle.
They represented the 36 Realms of this world.
"The 36 realms are essentially 36 worlds connected together. So, my plan is..."
Everyone seriously pondered the feasibility of his plan.
"This could work," said Tie Gang. "However, could the Formation Master we brought accomplish such a major task?"
"Let’s ask him," replied Li Jun. He opened his space ring and brought a young man from them; he was a disciple in the Primordial Spirit Realm and a Formation Master. More importantly, he cultivated the Formation Rune Body.
After explaining his plan to him, the disciple pondered for a moment and said: "Young master Li Jun, your plan is possible. However, the resources needed for such a large project will be quite large."
"You do not need to worry about that. Just tell me what you need. If it is not enough, we can still contact the sect and get it. We have plenty of time."
After the disciple gave Li Jun a list of things he needed, the group finally began to move around in this world. Of course, they still remained invisible and did not show up in front of the Gods. Additionally, they did not stop gathering information.
Origin Pill Dao Sect:
Wang Wei--who was disguised as Lou Cheng--opened his eyes. After that, he left his cave and headed to an open field in the sect. In front of the field was a large house with an old man sleeping on a chair.
Once Wang Wei was a closed to him, the old man opened his eyes and looked at him:
"Fifth Young Master, what can I do for you?"
"Old Meng, I came here to cross my Heavenly Tribulation."
"Oh? Is the young master going to break through the Supernatural Realm? It’s about time," said the old man. He stood up from his seat and entered inside the house, and a few minutes later, he returned with a ring in his hand and gave it to Wang Wei.
After thanking the old man, he headed to the middle of the field and sat cross-legged to adjust his condition. Two hours later, clouds gathered on top of the field and Wang Wei raised his head with a look of worry.
Although he was confident in his method to even fool any True Monarchs, he did not know whether he could fool Heavenly Dao. If his method fails, then this tribulation will be very powerful and risk revealing his identity.
Luckily for him, the worst-case scenario did not occur. After clouds gathered for a dozen meters, they stopped. And after seeing this, his mouth could not help twitch.
He remembered when he underwent his tribulation. Clouds covered the entire sect and beyond. Additionally, he was even treated as a devil cultivator and suffered from Cleansing-Purifying Flame and Heavenly Destruction Flame.
After complaining a little to himself, he prepared to overcome the tribulation. A fireball came from the sky and headed straight to Wang Wei. So, without hesitation, he mobilized his origin qi to create a semi-transparent barrier around him.
Once the fireball hit him, Wang Wei was forced to take a few steps back; his internal energy became chaotic and he almost spitted out a mouthful of blood. As for his shield, it was instantly destroyed.
’How weak is this guy?’ thought Wang Wei to himself. Right now, he was only using Lou Cheng’s power instead of his own. And yet, even such a small attack almost killed him.
Although he knew that most alchemists were weak--especially in the early stages of cultivation--but this Lou Cheng was on another level. This guy never practiced any attacking spells or tried to increase his strength.
Worse, the amount of time he was in a fight could be counted in one hand.
After sighing to himself, Wang Wei took action: an armor appeared on his body along with a cauldron. He controlled the cauldron to fly in the air and intercepted the fire that kept coming from the sky.
Every time a fireball descended from the clouds, he would use the cauldron to contain and absorb the flame. The process lasted for an hour. Wang Wei thought that he would easily pass the tribulation like this, however, on the last attack, the fireball increased in size by at least 5 times in diameter.
Additionally, it completely ignored the cauldron and headed straight for him. Not just that, even the armor did little. It only blocked the fireball for a brief moment before attacking his real body.
Knowing the danger of the situation, Wang Wei quickly activated all the defensive artifacts and talismans in his space ring; this act brought him a few minutes to decrease the power of the flame by a few percent.
Nevertheless, his body was still hit by the flame and he was sent flying away. Intense pain assaulted all parts of his body--including his soul. Of course, to him, this kind of pain was nothing.
However, since he was playing Lou Cheng, he had to release a few grunts for the people who were secretly watching.
After the flame burned his body, he finally succeeded in his tribulation. The Ancient Lamp appeared on top of his Divine Altar along with his Good Fortune Flame.
During the process, Wang Wei could tell that based on this guy’s foundation, he would probably only create a 9 nine-colored flame. For a direct disciple of the sect master of an Emperor Lineage, this was quite mediocre.
Fortunately, with the aura of the Innate Material that Wang Wei transferred to him, he could turn on the 10th color. Unfortunately, he was not satisfied. So, he secretly added some power from his real body to make the 11th color.
After all, the more talented he was the more chances that he would have in achieving his goals. In the future, he will have to slowly build this Lou Cheng’s reputation as a genius through many methods.
After overcoming the tribulation, Wang Wei was injured, so he hurriedly left the Passing Tribulation Field and returned to his cave. Inside, he took two things; one pill and an orb. These things were given to Lou Cheng by his master for his Heavenly Tribulation.
He quickly ate the pill to heal his injuries. A mild medicinal power traveled throughout his body to heal him. While running his cultivation technique to accelerate the absorption of the pill, he quickly also absorbed the power inside the orb.
The orb contained a small amount of Qi Luck that was refined so that it could be absorbed by people. And after doing so, Wang Wei could feel that an Innate Talent was slowly brewing inside his body.
Although he knew that with such little amount of Qi Luck, the talent will not be much. He hoped that it would not be a Normal Level talent, but a Growth one so that he can have room to maneuver in the future.
