Journey to the head

Fifteen years ago, after obtaining a precious innate elixir that could directly improve his cultivation to the perfect foundation building stage, Jiang Qingfeng did not take it immediately.

After the foundation is built, the time of the heavenly tribulation can only be said to be within one century (twelve years), but the exact time is uncertain. If the heavenly tribulation comes right after taking the elixir, it would be extremely dangerous if you are completely unprepared.

So Jiang Qingfeng continued to hone her skills and increase her abilities, and the Yunshan Sect also made careful preparations for her to be fully prepared.

After being reminded by Wei Zhaixing and Kan Yuanzi, Lu Qian became more cautious, so this preparation lasted for a full ten years. Only then did he feel that he had reached his limit and could not improve any further.

It was at this time that Jiang Qingfeng went into seclusion and took medicine, successfully advancing to the stage of foundation building. He then received a divine sense that the golden elixir tribulation would come in five years.

At this moment, in September of the 423rd year of Jiashen, the golden elixir heavenly calamity arrived on time. The dark calamity clouds enveloped the Mianlong Mountain, and the rumbling thunder rolled in the clouds.

Jiang Qingfeng encountered a relatively common thunder tribulation, but the thickness of the thunder cloud was beyond his expectations.

Under Lu Qian's worried gaze, the calamity clouds in the sky suddenly shrank and condensed.

Thousands of feet in the sky, layer after layer of calamity clouds have formed. Blue-purple lightning is surging like a dragon or a python. Dense and tiny arcs of electricity are rolling back and forth like a torrent. The entire calamity cloud is resounding with sharp buzzing sounds.

At this moment, everyone in the Yunshan Sect felt a tremor in their hearts.

There are seven layers of calamity clouds from top to bottom.

Yes, the seventh level of thunder tribulation!

In the past, Wu Yan suffered from triple thunder tribulation, and Lu Qian suffered from fifth thunder tribulation, but when it came to Jiang Qingfeng, their good luck did not continue, and they encountered the extremely difficult seventh thunder tribulation.

Lu Qian clenched his fists. Could it be that the disaster that Wei Zhaixing mentioned was these seven levels of thunder tribulation?
There are seven levels of thunder tribulation, and the power of each level is increasing.

Generally speaking, the first two levels are okay, the third level starts to reach the attack power of the initial golden elixir, and at the fifth level, it has reached the level of full-strength attack of the middle golden elixir, and at the seventh level, it even has the attack power of the perfect golden elixir!
In other words, the one who is to face the calamity needs to withstand five powerful attacks with increasing power from the beginning of the golden elixir stage to the perfection of the golden elixir stage!

How difficult it is for someone who has completed the foundation building!

Since ancient times, only one or two out of ten people can successfully survive the golden elixir tribulation and achieve the status of a true person. This is because the lucky ones who survive the third or fifth level of the tribulation are a minority after all, and the majority still survive the seventh level.

Of course, the nine-fold heavenly tribulation is rare. After all, there are not many cultivators who suffer so much hatred from heaven and earth and incur the nine-fold heavenly tribulation that will surely lead to their certain death.

It can be seen that the seventh level of heavenly tribulation is already an extremely dangerous level.

Even though Jiang Qingfeng had integrated the miraculous blood of a true dragon, had perfected all the combat skills within the foundation-building realm, and was carrying all kinds of spiritual objects prepared by the Yunshan Sect, Lu Qian was still very nervous at this moment, with sweat in his palms.

He opened his mouth to shout, but was worried that a sudden sound would affect his senior sister's condition, so he could only pray randomly in his heart.

The ancestors of all generations, the immortals and saints in heaven, and the Lord of Life and Death protected and helped my senior sister to successfully overcome the calamity and avoid this disaster.

At this moment, Jiang Qingfeng seemed to have sensed something in his heart. He lowered his head and looked in the direction of Lu Qian, his eyes filled with infinite tenderness and attachment.

Then she swung her two swords and went straight into the first level of calamity cloud!
According to secret experience, when the calamity cloud has formed but the heavenly calamity has not yet fallen, as long as you dare to enter the calamity cloud and launch an attack from within, you can weaken the calamity cloud.

The ice armor on his body was crystal clear, and wind and thunder were roaring all around him. Jiang Qingfeng raised his two swords high, and there was a loud bang on the Dragon Ridge Peak below. The surging river rolled up from the mountain peak to the sky and slammed into the calamity cloud.

After integrating the blood of the real dragon and undergoing long-term training, Jiang Qingfeng's mastery of water and thunder has become as natural as breathing. Controlling water, controlling thunder, soaring through clouds and mist, having abundant endurance, strong vitality, and a long life span. These are all talents bestowed upon Jiang Qingfeng by the real dragon's body.

Jiang Qingfeng exhaled lightly, and suddenly cold fog filled the air. She stepped into the fog, pointed her swords diagonally, and activated her secret technique. The rolling waves rumbled and covered the entire layer of calamity clouds. Then there was a series of crackling sounds, and the calamity clouds that were emitting terrifying fluctuations were completely frozen in the glacier!
"crack!"

There was a flash of silver light in Jiang Qingfeng's pupils, and thunder was rolling, flashing through the solid ice. The next moment, the glacier exploded, and the first layer of calamity clouds was directly cleared!
The Yunshan disciples below exclaimed in amazement.

In their hearts, Elder Jiang Qingfeng managed the internal affairs of the sect and managed the huge Yunshan Sect in an orderly manner. She was gentle, kind, graceful and generous, so she was naturally widely respected and loved. However, she was not famous for her bravery after all, and she rarely took action. Most people did not expect that she had such a strong fighting ability.

This performance is even better than Wu Yan and Lu Qian who had overcome the tribulation before!

Because this large-scale secret method of attack and defense is exactly what Jiang Qingfeng is best at.

Thunder follows water, and water can conduct thunder. In front of heavenly thunder, if you use only water element secret technique to resist, you will be at a great disadvantage. However, Jiang Qingfeng uses water (ice) and thunder secret technique, which comes from Xuanjun's collection of books, Hai Shuangyao's gift, and the dragon clan secret technique in Meng Chi's memory. It is extremely mysterious and powerful, and naturally incomparable.

The first layer of calamity clouds was broken, and the heavenly calamity seemed to be enraged. The second layer of thunder calamity condensed in the blink of an eye. One after another, thick lightning arrows rumbled down, with enough power to split mountains and crack the earth.

This time, Jiang Qingfeng simply swung his long sleeves, and precious light flashed. One after another, top-grade spiritual weapons were sacrificed like flowing water, facing the heavenly thunder.

Over the years, under the leadership of the Tao brothers, the strength of the Weapon Refining Hall of the Internal Affairs Department of the Yunshan Sect has become increasingly powerful. Now, the spiritual weapon parts of "The Magic Method of Making Gold with Ten Thousand Refinements" and "The True Mirror of Treasures" inherited from the "Dianjin Sect" have been completely digested, and the magic weapon parts have also begun to be absorbed.

Not long ago, the Equipment Refining Hall even successfully created a top-grade magic weapon embryo, which shows that the overall level has been greatly improved.

The Yunshan School's treasure refining has completely established a firm foothold among low-level cultivators. Together with the "spiritual medicine cultivation" led by the Cui father and daughter and the "pill refining" assisted by the Danxia School, they have become the three major manufacturing pillars and product brands of the Yunshan School.

The treasure umbrella was destroyed, as well as the treasure mirror. The treasure mirror shattered, and then there was the treasure ring. One after another, the top-grade spiritual weapons turned into ashes in front of the heavenly thunder, but the heavenly thunder was also blocked and could not land.

Such a scene made the disciples feel excited, and Ye Xiao, who happened to be practicing there, was dumbfounded.

In just a short while, if the top-grade spiritual weapon thrown by Jiang Qingfeng was sold on the market, its price would have exceeded one million spirit stones!
It has long been known that the Yunshan Sect is extremely wealthy, and even the entire Chongming Alliance has benefited greatly from the shares held by "Shuangyefang", "City That Never Sleeps" and "Taobaofang". The dividends distributed at the end of each year have become the largest source of income for the Huanggen Sect.

But I still didn't expect that the Yunshan Sect had become so rich that they could even use spirit stones to block the heavenly calamity!

The dazzling shooting of spiritual weapons blocked the second and third heavenly tribulations in succession. It is conservatively estimated that more than five million spiritual stones were consumed!

The fourth thunder tribulation began to brew, and Jiang Qingfeng also stopped smashing around with his spiritual weapon.

Of course, it's not that they can't afford the expenses. The Yunshan Sect has already accumulated huge wealth, and there is also a huge amount of property rewarded by Taiyi Paradise. These five million spirit stones are just the tip of a drop in the bucket.

If the heavenly tribulation can really be blocked by smashing spirit stones, then Lu Qian would not feel sorry even if he had to empty the treasury in order to help his senior sister successfully overcome the tribulation.

Unfortunately, the fourth heavenly tribulation already had the attack power of the early stage of the golden elixir. In front of it, the defense that the top-grade spiritual weapon could provide was no longer proportional to the spiritual power consumed. Using the spiritual weapon to resist it would be a disadvantage. From now on, I have to rely on real kung fu.

Jiang Qingfeng took a deep breath, his hair was covered with silver frost, his pair of dragon horns became more transparent, and faint traces of dragon scales appeared on his soft cheeks.

Thunder surged and formed into three ninety-nine-foot-long purple lightning swords in the air. Runes with a faint aura of destruction flashed in the lightning.

In the blink of an eye, three lightning swords fell towards Jiang Qingfeng's head!
Jiang Qingfeng raised her hands and a pair of ice swords shot out. Behind her, the shadow of a giant dragon suddenly appeared, with its five claws spread out, looking majestic, its beard flying around its mouth, and a bright pearl under its chin.

She blew out a breath of cold air, and the dragon bowed and exhaled as well.

In an instant, a strong wind blew up, clouds and mist rolled, cold air rolled, and thunder exploded.

Secret Technique: Dragon Breath Ice Thunder Slash!
The pair of ice swords extended and grew rapidly in the breath of frost and thunder, and in an instant they were over a hundred feet long. Wherever they passed, the cold fog condensed into hail, and the thunder rolled up with flashes of light.

Attack back with attack, chopping down the three purple lightning swords in the sky!

There was a rumbling sound, and the cold fog spread, blocking everyone's sight. After a few breaths, a figure with lightning flashing all over his body flashed out of the cold fog, his hair was disheveled, and there were cracks on his ice armor.

It was Jiang Qingfeng.

She suffered a little loss in this collision.

But under her ice armor, there was a khaki cloak that was glowing, and nine hundred and ninety-nine crane feathers were vibrating, swallowing up all the purple lightning.

Secret treasure: White Crane Ruyi Cloak!
Under the protection of this treasure, the fourth heavenly tribulation still failed to hurt Jiang Qingfeng.

There are three more layers, each one stronger than the last.
The disciples of Yunshan were concentrating intently, staring at the sky with nervous expressions. In addition to praying sincerely for Jiang Qingfeng, the group of foundation-building disciples also took the opportunity to observe and guess the power of the heavenly tribulation, and think about ways to fight against it. After all, it would be their turn to face the heavenly tribulation in the future.

Lin Le, in particular, prayed continuously for Jiang Qingfeng who was undergoing the tribulation in the sky, but was also somewhat worried that when it was his turn, he would suffer the death calamity of the nine-fold heavenly tribulation because of his fake spiritual roots.

He has been practicing in the Tianxin Lotus Pond for some time now, but unfortunately the work in the Business Department and the Intelligence Department is too heavy and the delivery is difficult, which has delayed his practice to a certain extent, so he has not yet entered the middle stage of foundation building.

But with the Tianxin Lotus Pond and an unlimited supply of unique elixirs, I will be able to reach the standard within a few years. After refining myself for a period of time, I will be able to take the innate elixir like my master, and directly enter the stage of foundation building and welcome the arrival of the heavenly calamity!
Over the past fifteen years, a group of disciples in the Yunshan Sect have completed their Qi training and have encountered opportunities. Ultimately, three of them succeeded in building their foundations and have become the backbone of the Yunshan Sect. Currently, they have found suitable positions in the eight departments and two divisions for training and cultivation.

This number is slightly insufficient, but considering that the best disciples of the fifth generation of Yunshan Sect, such as Su Yan, Li Da, Wang Ruoyu, Cui Linglong, etc. have already established their foundations, the rest of the disciples have achieved the foundation-building stage more slowly and have failed more times, this is also very normal.

As the Yunshan Sect has had more and more new spiritual seedlings in recent years, the size of each batch of new disciples is growing, and the frequency of the increase in the number of foundation-building feathered masters will continue to rise.

At this moment, under the tense gaze of everyone, Jiang Qingfeng danced with her long sleeves, and a crescent-shaped sword with a dark glow was already in her hand. On the blade, a dark light containing violent power was flowing back and forth, as if it was about to burst out in the next moment.

Facing the roar of the heavenly tribulation, Jiang Qingfeng soared into the clouds and stepped on the mist, standing with his head held high, his ice armor clanging, and his long sword held upside down. This scene also made many disciples excited and cheered loudly.

The fifth level of heavenly tribulation condensed, and a pair of giant thunder palms tore the tribulation clouds apart. A huge purple lightning giant rushed out from the clouds and rushed straight towards Jiang Qingfeng.

Jiang Qingfeng widened his eyes, swung his arms, and the crescent-shaped sword drew a perfect arc.

With a loud humming sound, an incomparably dark, hundred-foot-long sword energy shot out from the偃月刀 and slashed directly at the purple lightning giant!
This is the charged secret treasure, Wuduo Yanyuedao!

In order to help Jiang Qingfeng overcome the tribulation, Lu Qian borrowed the sword from Wang Yu, and before the tribulation dissipated and began to brew, Jiang Qingfeng continuously launched attacks to charge the sword. At this moment, when the sword was chopped down, it was naturally powerful.

It's a pity that the power of this sword cannot be stored for a long time. The heavenly calamity came at any time. Even if Jiang Qingfeng seized the time and used all his strength, he could only temporarily allow the sword to accumulate about a quarter of its energy.

Otherwise, the fully charged Wu Duo Dao could even injure Kaixuan Lingjun's palm.

At this moment, the knife suddenly came out, leaving a deep scar on the purple lightning giant. Jiang Qingfeng followed closely behind, put away the useless Wuduo knife, condensed the ice swords in his hands again, and rushed forward with frost and thunder.

Frost and purple lightning swirled in the air, and finally the giant disappeared into thin air. Jiang Qingfeng was also slightly injured under the protection of the White Crane Ruyi Cloak.

The sixth level of heavenly tribulation condensed and a thunder and lightning unicorn roared towards the sky. Purple and black thunder radiated violently around it, bringing heavy pressure to the people below.

It is equivalent to the power of the late Jindan stage!

Jiang Qingfeng took a deep breath and chose to save her trump card for the last heavenly tribulation. She wrapped the White Crane Ruyi Cloak tightly and used the secret method. The virtual image of the giant dragon behind her became clearer and clearer, and she rushed towards the Thunder Qilin.

Frost and thunder intertwined and radiated, surging and condensing around Jiang Qingfeng. A giant dragon made entirely of ice crystals and covered in heavy thunder armor suddenly appeared.

Secret Technique: Mysterious Ice Thunder Dragon!

The Black Ice Thunder Dragon and the Purple Lightning Qilin pounced on each other. In an instant, frost rolled, thunder and lightning struck, and the loud noise and bright light in the sky made people dizzy.

After a few breaths, the Thunder Armor Dragon was already at a disadvantage. Large sections of its body collapsed, its armor shattered, and purple lightning surged into it, tearing apart the protection of the White Crane Ruyi Cloak. Jiang Qingfeng vomited blood, and his injuries continued to worsen.

But this female cultivator, who looked weak in appearance but very strong in heart, gritted her teeth and withstood the attack. The abundant endurance and tenacious life brought by the true dragon's blood were fully demonstrated at this moment.

The Purple Lightning Qilin was showing off its might, and the Black Ice Thunder Dragon was easily shattered. Jiang Qingfeng vomited blood, but he was still able to try his best to reorganize himself. In the process of this coming and going, the Purple Lightning Qilin was constantly being consumed.

But the disciples were still sweating, because the gap between the two sides was still too big. At this rate, Jiang Qingfeng would definitely lose his life before the Purple Lightning Qilin was consumed.

Lu Qian relaxed at this moment.

That’s great. After actual observation, it can finally be confirmed that Senior Sister’s True Dragon Body is even stronger than imagined. Although the sixth level of heavenly tribulation has the power of the late Jindan period, it still does not have the ability to kill her instantly.

I can finally rest assured.

As long as she can't be killed instantly, then it's time to use that! (End of this chapter)
