Chapter 394: Chapter 394: Thunder Disaster (Request for Monthly Pass)

"Fortunately, I’m only a Primordial Pill, facing three simple calamities, which are fixed without the numerous variables of the Four Tribulations of the Primordial Spirit..."

"Heavenly Tribulations I can withstand by force, but it’s the latter two internal calamities that are the issue, better to convert them into external tribulations, be they heavenly or mortal, as long as I draw my sword and fight through, I can pass..."

"And once the three Calamities of the Nascent Soul are past, I’ll be at the peak of the Primordial Pill stage and can attempt to break through to the Primordial Spirit."

"The ’Supreme Dragon Tiger Tribulation Suppressing Scripture’ obtained by Zhong Wu goes no further; after breaking through to the Primordial Spirit, there’s nothing on how to deal with the Four Tribulations..."

"After all, it is just the True Inheritance of a tribunal line. If it were the true inheritance of the Zhang Family, I would surely receive the complete text, and could cultivate all the way to the Four Tribulations Primordial Spirit and develop into a Dharma Image! There’d also be tips for breaking through to a Dharma Body!"

A Dharma Image is not a Dharma Body, just a phantom image.

With this phantom image, one can eventually turn phantom into reality and become a True Monarch or Demon Lord!

The highest achievement of the ’Supreme Dragon Tiger Tribulation Suppressing Scripture’ is also just a Dharma Body.

To seek enlightenment and become immortal, one must receive the fundamental Daoist Skill of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect—’Taiyi Dragon Tiger Control True Seal Divine Method’!

However, at this moment, Zhong Shenxiu was satisfied.

He sat cross-legged, guarding his upper Dantian, and began his first formal cultivation at the level of Primordial Pill according to the cultivation technique.

Zhong Shenxiu breathed in and out the cosmos Qi, his thoughts profound and suddenly ascended, as if he felt the elusive Heavenly Dao.

’The Heavenly Dao of this world is not the same as that of the Second Yan Han Empire; perhaps... I can pursue the path of the Ancient Immortal Technique...’

No sooner had this thought appeared than he suddenly sensed an extreme corruption and pollution mixed within the natural Qi of heaven and earth, rolling towards him!

Hiss, hiss!

Rustle, rustle!

Countless sharp, deep, or hoarse whispers flooded into Zhong Shenxiu’s eardrums.

Veins popped from Zhong Shenxiu’s forehead, as if tiny snakes or earthworms were writhing and struggling.

From his eyes and ears, suddenly black blood flowed out.

This sensation was similar to what he had felt previously when he had looked directly at the Scattering Flower Heavenly Woman Dharma Body, yet it was more severe and terrifying.

After all, how could a Dharma Body compare with the Heavenly Dao of an entire world?

Zhong Shenxiu held onto the clarity in his heart and suddenly infused all his realizations into his Outer Elixir.

The Outer Elixir became even more crystal clear, completely absorbing the contamination.

The natural Qi of heaven and earth formed a tide, swallowed in one gulp by the Outer Elixir, compressed into refined Primordial Pill Power, and after many purifications, finally absorbed by Zhong Shenxiu himself, enhancing his cultivation.

Moments later, he opened his eyes, a bitter smile appearing on his face,

"Should I say... fitting for a world traversed by the gate of countless gates?"

Zhong Shenxiu had felt something was off long ago, ever since he had activated the option of the gate of countless gates, every world he traveled to was damn problematic!

The first modern Martial Arts World had an invasion of Heavenly Demons.

The second ancient Jianghu had Da Mo and Niu Shenjun along with other Evil Gods.

Not to mention the third one, those Evil Gods directly formed a mysterious origin!

Even in this fourth world, although this world seems well-suited for eastern cultivators, there is still pollution within the Heavenly Dao!

"Is it the nature of the gate of countless gates that decides I can only travel between worlds with similar energy?"

Zhong Shenxiu’s expression tightened.

He certainly hadn’t forgotten where the energy to open the Gates of Myriad Paths this time had come from.

"Seems like... in the previous world, the fate tied with the tail-eating snake and other Evil Gods still can’t be severed..."

The Gates of Myriad Paths were inherently eerie, activated through energy overflow from beings like the tail-eating snake and other Evil Gods.

What kind of world he would end up in was almost too apparent.

Even if he were to encounter a follower of the tail-eating snake or some other crazed beast right outside his door, Zhong Shenxiu wouldn’t find it too surprising.

He was sure of one thing, even if this world leaned more towards ancient cultivation, with the pollution and teachings of the Evil God... things were bound to be a bit off.

To stray a little, or even a lot, was all within the realm of possibility.

"Well... thankfully, I practice the Outer Elixir Method, which acts as a firewall, otherwise, I would really be screwed by the universe... the unavoidable kind."

Zhong Shenxiu closed his eyes and felt a stirring.

This was like a sudden impulse of a cultivator, as if something dangerous was brewing in the sky.

According to the "Supreme Dragon Tiger Tribulation Suppressing Scripture," such a sign meant that a Primordial Pill cultivator was fully primed and ready to face his first Heavenly Tribulation!

If the cultivator didn’t choose to undergo the tribulation proactively, when the thunderstorm came, the heavens would even send down lightning to strike you!

By then, the power of Heavenly Thunder would become even more unpredictable.

"I have deep reserves, and upon refining the outer elixir, I can compare myself to a One Disaster True Man... The reason I haven’t triggered the tribulation is merely the lack of a suitable cultivation technique. Now that I’ve filled in that gap, the heavenly calamity will arrive in the blink of an eye..."

Zhong Shenxiu felt quite calm about facing his first Heavenly Tribulation.

After all, it was better to face it than not.

And with his spiritual prowess, if he were still to die from a lightning strike, then no cultivator should exist under the heavens.

Boom, boom, boom!

Accompanying Zhong Shenxiu as he proactively triggered his own calamity.

The sky, clear for thousands of miles, suddenly roiled with dark clouds, thunder danced wildly amongst them, twisting into thick blue lightning bolts, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

"Primordial Pill cultivators have a love-hate relationship with the Three Calamities... some bitterly cultivate for five hundred years, nearing the end of their lifespan, yet they cannot trigger even the first tribulation, their cultivation unable to progress... while others are naturally talented, advancing too quickly, achieving the Primordial Pill and then immediately triggering the tribulation, dying without a whole body..."

Zhong Shenxiu’s lips curled into a slight smile as he discerned the nature of the thunder high above using the ’Nine Heavens Thunder Sound Sensing Method’ recorded in the "Supreme Dragon Tiger Tribulation Suppressing Scripture."

The ’Nine Heavens Thunder Sound Sensing Method’ taught cultivators to recognize the nature of thunder, predicting the type of tribulation in advance, which was very beneficial for crossing the tribulation.

"Hmm... no signs of chaos creating heaven and earth, meaning it’s not the Taiching Divine Thunder, Yuqing Divine Thunder, Shangqing Great Cave Divine Thunder, nor types like Jade Pivot, Jade Chamber, or Jade Pillar Divine Thunder..."

If such divine thunders were to appear, cultivators would most likely die nine out of ten times.

Of course, ordinary cultivators don’t even have the qualification to provoke the Heavenly Dao to send down such divine thunders against them.

Even covering generational Demon Lords, such hopes were slim.

"The thunder rolls continuously, it’s not the Soundless Divine Thunder, metallic items show no reaction, it’s not the Primordial Magnetic Divine Thunder, nor is it Qiantian Qi Divine Thunder, Five Elements Divine Thunder, or other types..."

"The air is full of Yang Gang Qi, not the Secret Demon Yin Thunder, Ruyi Demon Thunder, or other tainted types, but there’s a trace of Evil Qi... so it’s the Five Evil God Thunder!"

Zhong Shenxiu’s eyes brightened.

This kind of Heavenly Thunder, born from the cosmic balance of yin and yang and gathering the essence of the five evils in the sky, was not only immensely powerful but also capable of corrupting the cultivator’s body, combining the mysteries of both yang thunder and yin thunder, which was very formidable.

"Among the generations of Primordial Pill cultivators from the Dragon Tiger Sect, there have been quite a few who have triggered this kind of tribulation. My luck is neither good nor bad, pretty average I guess..."
