Chapter 414: Mystic Power Emerges, Golden Core Forms!
Chapter 414: Mystic Power Emerges, Golden Core Forms!
Boom!
A yellowish-brown tribulation thunderbolt descended, striking Lu Qing.
In an instant, an incredibly heavy pressure crushed Lu Qing, as if it would turn him into mincemeat.
The entire mountain peak trembled under this terrifying gravity.
Rocks shattered, turning into dust.
"Pfft!"
The intense pressure caught Lu Qing off guard, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
His bones and muscles creaked and snapped under the pressure.
Even pieces of his internal organs were mixed with the blood he spat out!
"Is this fifth tribulation thunderbolt of Earth a manifestation of gravity?"
Feeling the omnipresent pressure, like the weight of a mountain, constantly crushing every inch of his muscles and bones, Lu Qing realized the terrifying gravity.
Indeed, this was already Lu Qing's fifth tribulation thunderbolt.
Previously, he had endured the tribulation thunderbolts of Water and Fire.
Each one was incredibly frightening.
Especially the Water tribulation thunderbolt, which evolved from the law of water, was poisonous and almost caused Lu Qing to fall into a deadly trap, nearly melting him.
Fortunately, Lu Qing's resilience prevailed, and not only did he survive the deadly tribulation, but he also successfully absorbed the law force contained within the tribulation thunderbolt into his body.
This further enhanced his physical strength, especially his spirit power, which constantly fluctuated and seemed on the verge of a genuine transformation.
"As long as I absorb and integrate this law force of Earth, it should be almost complete."
Despite the immense gravity and his nearly shattered body, Lu Qing was not panicked but rather joyful.
The principle of breaking through limits in body cultivation required constant self-destruction through trials to achieve breakthroughs.
After enduring the trials of the previous four tribulation thunderbolts, his physical body had significantly strengthened, becoming incredibly resilient.
However, he still needed a final push for a genuine transformation.
This Earth tribulation thunderbolt arrived at the perfect time.
Lu Qing immediately activated his heart technique, starting to devour the tribulation thunderbolt within his body and the law force of Earth contained within it.
With the experience of the previous four tribulation thunderbolts, Lu Qing's process of absorbing the law force this time was smoother.
Before long, he had absorbed all the law force, and the tribulation thunderbolt disappeared.
The Earth tribulation thunderbolt was successfully crossed by Lu Qing.
"What's still missing?"
However, despite crossing the tribulation, Lu Qing didn't feel delighted.
At this moment, the law forces of the five elements—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—intertwined and brewed within his spirit power, merging with the five elemental attributes he had cultivated.
This made his spirit power incredibly pure and powerful to the extreme.
In his Qi Sea Dantian, a "Core"-like shape formed, seemingly both real and illusory, perfectly rounded and complete.
But no matter how this "Core"-like spirit power twisted and fluctuated, it couldn't trigger a qualitative change, transforming into mystic power.
Without the transformation of mystic power, he couldn't condense a genuine Mystic Core and enter the Golden Core Realm.
"I've already crossed the tribulation thunderbolts of the five elements; what's still missing?"
Lu Qing looked up at the sky, but the tribulation cloud vortex showed no signs of dissipating; instead, it continued to brew and gather thunderous light.
This time, the gathered thunderous light was complete with all five colors, representing the complete five elements.
"So that's it; this sixth tribulation thunderbolt is the culmination of the five elements, a tribulation of the complete five elements."
Through his spiritual perception, Lu Qing gained a sudden realization.
He also understood that this sixth tribulation thunderbolt was the final one in his Golden Core Tribulation.
If he endured it, he would successfully cross this tribulation and condense his Golden Core!
"Then, come!"
Lu Qing stared at the dense and bright thunderous light that had reached its peak, and his entire state rose to its pinnacle.
As if sensing Lu Qing's will, a thunderous explosion reverberated, and the thunder light within the tribulation cloud vortex descended at that moment.
Boom!
This tribulation thunder was intertwined with five colors, much thicker and more formidable than the previous ones.
Like a pillar from the heavens, it struck down upon Lu Qing's body.
Instantly, the earth shook, and the formidable power caused the majestic mountain peak where Lu Qing was to tremble.
The entire summit shattered in an instant, with countless rocks flying and rolling down, creating a terrifying scene.
"Young Master!"
Within the Flame Cauldron, 'Flame' witnessed this scene and cried out in shock once more.
The power of this sixth tribulation thunder was truly terrifying, so overwhelming that even within the spirit treasure space, it felt trembling.
This reminded it of the time when it observed a Core Formation Master's tribulation crossing in the Blaze Sect.
But that was a Soul Tribulation. When did the power of a Golden Core Tribulation become so terrifying?
Would this leave any chance for the one crossing the tribulation?
"Indeed, just this last tribulation thunder remains!"
Amid 'Flame's' concern, Lu Qing, who had directly faced the five-colored tribulation thunder, now looked miserable.
His muscles were melted and burned, resembling a melting candle, dripping down.
Under the erosion of the Five Elements Law Force, the law phenomenon he had experienced earlier reappeared.
The sharp qi that could cut through everything, the mysterious plants that sucked out the marrow, the black poison water that corroded all, the red flames that incinerated everything, and the terrifying gravity that crushed everything—these five phenomena appeared simultaneously, torturing Lu Qing's physical body to the point of destruction.
More importantly, an intangible pulse surged into his third eye acupoint, striking the divine soul talisman, causing his mind to become filled with illusions, making it difficult to distinguish reality from fantasy.
However, even such a formidable attack couldn't make Lu Qing feel fear.
On the contrary, a surge of great joy suddenly rose in his heart.
Because, amidst this torment that seemed to destroy everything, he finally grasped the opportunity to condense his Golden Core.
"Break!"
In the third eye acupoint, the mysterious divine soul talisman, which had been nurtured within the Earth Spirit Orb all this time, suddenly shone brightly.
In just a breath, it shattered the invading intangible pulse, allowing Lu Qing's mind to regain clarity.
The Five Elements Gourd in his Dantian Qi Sea trembled continuously, emitting an incredibly powerful suction force.
It devoured the tribulation thunder within and outside Lu Qing's body, along with the law force that had transformed into phenomena.
After refining it within the gourd and spitting it out, it merged with Lu Qing's spirit power.
With this assistance, the illusory and real energy mass in Lu Qing's Dantian finally began to solidify and take shape. The 'Dan'—the energy mass that had merged with Lu Qing's entire vital energy—seemed to have taken a powerful tonic.
With a violent tremor, it finally underwent a transformation, and a strand of power, far stronger than spirit power, was born from the center.
At the same time, the 'Dan'-shaped energy mass was no longer illusory and began to truly take form.
As the mystic core formed, Lu Qing's physical body, divine soul, and vital energy all underwent an unimaginable transformation.
He finally succeeded in crossing the thunder tribulation and stepped into the Golden Core Realm!
