Others practice leveling, I cultivate immortality, go out to Mahayana before leaving the mountain

Chapter 467: Overcoming the Five Deteriorations of Heaven and Man, the Nine-turn Thunder Tribulation is coming!

【How unfair is the way of heaven! 】

[All living things are subject to birth, aging, illness and death...]

[For ordinary people, the life span is no more than a hundred years; for those who practice Taoism, the life span is no more than a thousand years. ]

[Even immortals only waste tens of thousands of years...]

[All things in this world will eventually return to heaven...]

[Differences in spiritual roots, qualifications, races...]

[As your self-loathing gradually accumulates, your premonition of the injustice of heaven becomes stronger and stronger...]

[As I mourned and lamented every day, another hundred years passed...]

[In the third hundred years, your resentment towards the Way of Heaven has finally transformed into... disgust towards yourself!]

[What do monks seek throughout their lives? Immortality, freedom? What is the meaning of these?]

[Even if you are a Golden Immortal, your life span will eventually come to an end...]

[The path to sainthood is over, there are foreigners outside and troubles inside... Is there any meaning in practicing Taoism? ]

[You begin to doubt your own Dao heart, and you begin to doubt the Dao path...]

[Amid this doubt, another hundred years passed! ]

[In the fourth hundred years, as time goes by... you have more and more doubts about the Tao.]

[You gradually begin to give up practicing, and you begin to wonder why you should practice Taoism... Fighting for thousands of years, fighting with people, fighting with the heaven and earth, fighting with alien races... What is the meaning in the end? ]

[You gradually begin to lose an emotion called desire...]

[You have no desire to cultivate the Way, nor do you have the ambition to attain immortality.]

[Under this emotion, you began to want to commit suicide more than once...]

[Finally, in the 470th year of your self-loathing, you began to attempt suicide...]

[Your body is constantly being destroyed, and your mind is gradually becoming confused.]

[Just then... a figure appears beside you! ]

[It’s Baidi! ]

[At the critical moment, he saved you! ]

[I saw Baidi lightly stretch out his finger, and a beam of white light sank into your forehead...]

[Instantly, everything came back to me! ]

[A thousand years ago, when you met the Master of Tianji Pavilion, you made a request.]

[You hope that when you are overcoming the tribulation and feeling bad about yourself, the Pavilion Master of Tianji can provide you with help, and if you are in crisis, you can get a chance to "enlighten your mind". ]

[The Master of Tianji Pavilion has agreed to your request. ]

[Although she couldn't do it herself, she still informed Baidi and gave him a way to help you clear your mind.]

[So, between life and death, Baidi took action! ]

In the real world, Su Xing broke out in a cold sweat.

"That was a close call... This self-loathing is truly terrifying. With my heart of Taoism, I almost committed suicide!"

“Tsk tsk… After taking the Self-loathing Water, the difficulty of self-loathing will probably increase several times!”

"But the difficulty will increase several times, and the effect will also increase several times!"

"As long as I can successfully overcome my self-loathing, my determination to follow the Tao will be stronger than ever before!"

Su Xing took a deep breath and looked at the simulation panel nervously.

【As the white light enters your body, you feel your desire being rekindled! 】

[Practicing Taoism to achieve longevity is not meaningless! 】

[Since everything in the world has its destiny, why can't we break it? ]

[The suffering of the six realms of reincarnation? The pain of birth, aging, and weakness? ]

[The pursuit of a Taoist is not only to be free and immortal... but also to have a clear mind and do what one wants in one's heart! ]

【…】

【As your desires are rekindled, your determination to follow the Tao becomes stronger again.】

[Once again, I fought against the self-loathing in my body.]

[So, every day you switch between the desire to seek the truth and the state of self-loathing and having no desires...]

[In the blink of an eye, the last thirty years have passed...]

[With the five hundred years coming to an end, you have finally passed the last of the five stages of decline of the heavenly beings, and you are disgusted with yourself! ]

【Congratulations, you have successfully overcome self-loathing! 】

[Your emotions are fuller than ever before, and your faith in the Tao is more resolute than ever before.]

【At the same time, you feel thunder rumbling in the sky.】

【Finally, the Taiyi Thunder Tribulation is coming! 】

In the real world, Su Xing took a deep breath when he saw this.

"Is it finally here?"

“Taiyi Thunder Tribulation… As long as you survive this tribulation, you will be able to attain Taiyi Golden Immortal!”

Su Xing recalled the information about Taiyi Thunder Tribulation in his mind.

Taiyi thunder tribulation usually lasts for three years.

He experienced nine levels of thunder tribulation, a total of eight thousand one hundred!

If one can get through it successfully, one will be able to avoid the suffering of physical decline and will be able to remain in good health until the end of one's life.

“Once I become a Taiyi Golden Immortal, my combat power will be close to the late Taiyi Golden Immortal!”

"And the nine-fold thunder tribulation cannot be wasted... it's just enough to allow the Great Way of Thunder to enter the sixth realm!"

Su Xing didn't even think about it, and silently said:
"Use immersive simulation for 10 years!"

[Ding... The remaining energy source is 4 points...]

The beep falls and the consciousness enters the simulated world.

……

Tianji Realm, outside Tianji City.

Su Xing climbed to the top of a mountain, feeling the thunder and lightning brewing in the sky, and seemed to have some feelings in his heart.

As dark clouds continued to gather, thunder gradually condensed.

Su Xing also felt that countless eyes were directed towards where he was.

After all, Taiyi Golden Immortal is undergoing tribulation!
Such a magnificent scene may not be seen once in a million years!
If one can gain some insights from observing the tribulation, it may be beneficial to the cultivators’ own practice.

"Taiyi Thunder Tribulation, then come!"

There was a strong sense of confidence in Su Xing's eyes. He had just passed the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Earth, and his condition was at its peak.

Coupled with Su Xing's solid foundation in Taoism, surviving this thunder tribulation is a sure thing!

Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the first thunder tribulation between heaven and earth...struck down!
The terrifying thunder directly hit the acupuncture point of Su Xing's forehead.

Su Xing had no protection at all and had to rely only on his physical body to resist!
Rumble!
The thunder dissipated in an instant, turning into faint traces of thunder energy, which began to temper the awakened body.

"Hmm? The power of this thunderbolt..."

Su Xing frowned slightly. There seemed to be something wrong with the power of thunder!
"It seems to be stronger than the Taiyi Thunder Tribulation I imagined..."

"But it's still under control!"

Su Xing was a little confused, but he didn't think too much about it. He just concentrated on fighting the next thunder tribulation.

Soon, strong bolts of lightning struck down, changing the color of the sky and the earth, leaving the monks who came to watch the ceremony sighing in despair. One... ten... a hundred... a thousand!
In the blink of an eye, March has passed!

Su Xing has already endured a total of one thousand and eight thunders with his physical body.

As time goes by, the power of thunder is also increasing slightly.

Su Xing allowed the thunder to temper his body, feeling the benefits brought by the thunder essence.

In just three months, the awakened Avenue of Thunder has reached the peak of the fifth realm!

At this moment, Su Xing finally confirmed that there was something wrong with the nine-fold thunder tribulation of Taiyi Golden Immortal!

“Tsk tsk, if the Nine-fold Thunder Tribulation is really this powerful, I’m afraid that 99% of the Golden Immortals in the world will fall under this thunder tribulation!”

Su Xing blinked, then raised his hand towards the lightning tribulation in the sky and stopped...

As expected, under Su Xing's test, the thunder and dark clouds in the sky paused for a moment imperceptibly.

Afterwards, Su Xing seemed to sense a familiar feeling of "frustration" in the thunder tribulation!

"Sure enough, is that Heavenly Dao coming?"

"Damn it...are you here to complain?"

Su Xing curled his lips. When he was going through the Golden Immortal Thunder Tribulation before, he had challenged the Thunder Tribulation and the Way of Heaven.

At that time, Tiandao used all his strength, but in the end he was unable to hurt Su Xing at all. He only allowed Su Xing to use the thunder tribulation to completely condense the "Heavenly Thunder Holy Body"!
At that time, Tian Dao felt that he was being used by Su Xing, so he felt a little resentful.

However, due to the limited power of the Golden Immortal Thunder Tribulation, even if the Heavenly Dao wanted more power at that time, it was not allowed within the "rules".

After all, it is impossible to use the power of Taiyi Thunder Tribulation to strike a peak Xuanxian cultivator.

But right now, the Heavenly Dao is obviously petty and wants to get back at Su Xing!

Therefore, the power of Taiyi Thunder Tribulation is more than twice that of ordinary Taiyi Thunder Tribulation!
“Tsk tsk… Although the power is beyond my expectations… But this thunder tribulation is a good thing!”

Su Xing narrowed his eyes. He could even feel that under the tempering of the thunder tribulation, the bottleneck at the peak of the sixth level of the Great Witch's Body Tempering Technique had loosened a little.

The Qi and blood strength that had not increased in the past six months seemed to have increased a little...

"Tsk tsk, Thunder Body Tempering, the most yang and hardest thing in the world... It will be of great benefit to me in entering the sixth level of the Great Wizard Body Tempering Technique!"

“If I can completely withstand this ninth level of thunder tribulation… maybe I will be close to entering the seventh level of the Great Wizard Body Refining Technique!”

Su Xing's mind moved and he already had a plan.

Since we are going to take advantage of the laws of nature and the thunder tribulation, we might as well do it more thoroughly!
Su Xing not only wants to advance the Great Way of Thunder into the sixth realm, but also wants to make his body stronger.

Make it easier for you to break into the seventh level of the Great Wizard's Body Tempering Technique in the future!
"Then let the thunder tribulation come more violently!"

Su Xing raised the corner of his mouth and once again showed a provocative expression towards the thunder in the sky.

As expected, the invisible heavenly way was challenged by Su Xing.

Like a bullied child, he launched an even more violent thunder attack towards Su Xing!
Ten...a hundred...a thousand!
In just two months, Su Xing once again endured thousands of thunder tribulations!
Moreover, the power of thunder is many times stronger than before!

“Tsk tsk… the power of this thunder tribulation is starting to become interesting!”

"But that's all..."

Su Xing closed his eyes slightly and could feel the damage caused by the thunder in the sky hitting him.

Almost every bolt of lightning would cause minor injuries to Su Xing's body.

But he quickly recovered due to his terrifying vitality and recovery ability...

"Is the power of each lightning tribulation equivalent to the full-strength attack of a peak Golden Immortal cultivator?"

"Tsk tsk... it's really scary!"

"If it were an ordinary Golden Immortal who was undergoing the tribulation, he would probably not be able to survive more than a hundred times and would be forced to stop, right?"

Su Xing thought to himself.

But how could he be an ordinary Golden Immortal?

Even though this Taiyi Thunder Tribulation was terrifyingly powerful, it didn't even force Su Xing to use protective measures!

Until now, Su Xing has only been holding on with his physical body!

The benefits of having your body withstand the Taiyi Thunder Tribulation are visible to the naked eye!

Su Xing's understanding of the Great Way of Thunder is getting closer and closer to the sixth realm.

The body and blood, which had reached a bottleneck, are now about 30% stronger than before the tribulation!

In this way, under the continuous thunder tribulations, another three months passed!

In the eighth month of Su Xing's thunder tribulation, he has already survived a total of 3,600 thunder tribulations!

And the power of the thunder tribulation is still increasing...

It is already vaguely equivalent to the attack strength of the top cultivators on the Heavenly Prodigy Ranking and the Earthly Prodigy Ranking!

And when he wakes up, he is no longer relying solely on physical strength to resist.

After changing his strategy, Su Xing sometimes resisted with his physical body and sometimes used his energy to isolate the destructive force of the thunder mechanism and concentrate on absorbing the great way of thunder therein.

In this way, the effect of Su Xing's body tempering by thunder might be slightly worse.

But Su Xing will be more confident in getting through all thunder tribulations, and his understanding of the great way of thunder will not weaken.

After all, how can the laws of nature be destroyed?
I’ve only completed one-third of the tribulation... I don’t know how much trouble he’s going to cause!

Su Xing just stayed there, enduring one thunder tribulation after another.

And the thousand-foot-high mountain was actually razed to the ground after eight months of thunder.

……

At the same time, the place where Su Xing survived the tribulation was within a radius of ten thousand miles.

Countless monks watched the situation when Su Xing was undergoing the tribulation.

“Tsk tsk… It’s so scary! It’s really so scary!”

"Is this the power of the Taiyi Thunder Tribulation? I'm afraid I can't survive any of it!"

A Golden Immortal cultivator, watching the scene of Su Xing transcending the tribulation, inevitably showed a hint of envy in his eyes... and even a hint of fear!
"Something's wrong! Something's wrong! This doesn't seem like the power of Taiyi Thunder Tribulation!"

"If I had this much power when I survived the thunder tribulation, I'm afraid the grass on my grave would be three feet high!"

There were also Taiyi Golden Immortals of a high level who were observing the power of Su Xing's tribulation and vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Su Xing survived the tribulation for eight months, and the power of the thunder tribulation was even stronger than the last few thunder tribulations he experienced back then...

At this moment, millions of cultivators within a radius of ten thousand miles were watching from afar as Su Xing was undergoing the tribulation.

Many cultivators gained some insights from the thunder tribulation.

"Tsk tsk... the back is really good!"

"I'm afraid this thunder tribulation is of a high quality!"

"This kid's talent is the best I've ever seen in my life!"

The Taiyi Golden Immortal Xiao Zhanlong, looking at the thunder tribulation that Su Xing had to endure, also felt that he was quite inferior.

As a veteran Taiyi Golden Immortal and one of the top 20 on the Tianjiao List, Xiao Zhanlong was also a little unpredictable.

So, he looked at the man in white next to him and asked tentatively:

"Senior Baidi...what do you think of the thunder tribulation this kid has endured?"

Baidi's expression at this moment was not as leisurely and relaxed as the cultivators around him.

On the contrary, it felt like I had seen a ghost.

As a Golden Immortal who has lived for tens of millions of years, Baidi's sword power is naturally far beyond the reach of these ordinary cultivators.

He looked uncertainly at the thunder tribulation that Su Xing had endured, and muttered:

"Damn, is this kid's talent really that high?"

"It even attracted the Nine-turn Thunder Tribulation?"
