If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

Seeing Amaterasu turn into a pool of dirty blood in the sword formation and pouring down from the sky, Zhu Zhanyu could feel a spiritual energy filling the sword formation.

This is the spiritual energy contained in the last few gods of the Japanese country and the three noble sons, but in terms of the total amount of this spiritual energy, it is equivalent to all the spiritual energy that a small spiritual vein can contain.

If it were to be scattered directly between heaven and earth, it would undoubtedly be a huge waste.

Even for Zhu Zhanchun, who has already won a cave and has another cave of his own, in this era when the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is declining, so much spiritual energy is very astonishing.

If these gods hadn't been killed in his sword formation, which prevented some of the spiritual energy from escaping, Zhu Zhanyu might not have been able to retain so much spiritual energy.

Not wanting to waste it, he directly took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, and then controlled the sword formation to concentrate the spiritual energy, gathered it together with great magic power, turned it into drops of spiritual liquid, and put it into the jade bottle.

Only this part of the spiritual energy can be collected. After the other Japanese evil gods were killed, there was no way to recover the spiritual energy that was still in the world.

After all, the formation he set up in Izumo was only to prevent these evil gods from escaping, not to seal the spiritual energy.

Moreover, although Izumo is not a very big place, it is still a Japanese imperial state. It can be as big as a county in the Ming Dynasty.

Although the number of Japanese evil gods killed was large, the spiritual energy that escaped would not have any impact evenly spread over such a large area.

In fact, the concentration of spiritual energy in the mountainous area where the Japanese evil gods were concentrated has increased slightly. As for other places where there are some inconspicuous phenomena, it is considered to be overwhelming.

So Zhu Zhanjun didn't bother to put any thought into this aspect. After putting away the jade bottle, he planned to untie the sword formation and retrieve the seven flying swords.

However, the moment he was released from the state of one body and sword and separated from the sword array, several thunderbolts struck from the sky, striking each flying sword three times without any bias.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhanqi's expression suddenly changed, and then he smiled bitterly.

He had forgotten that he had already caused the catastrophe, and he had not chopped it down just now. It was purely because he was killing those Japanese gods, and the law of heaven left him some face, and the catastrophe itself also needed time to brew.

Moreover, the Seven Jue Defeating Heavenly Sword Formation itself also has the function of isolating qi. When the sword array is formed, it can hide one's own qi from the heavenly tribulation to avoid being locked by the heavenly tribulation.

This is also a way to avoid disaster in the world of immortality. If some people feel that they cannot survive the disaster, they will find ways to block their Qi or hide in a cave somewhere so that the disaster cannot be found, so as to avoid the disaster.

But this method can only avoid it, but cannot overcome it. If you can't get over it, naturally you can't expect to go any further. You will be stuck in the realm of overcoming the tribulation for the rest of your life, without making any progress.

Therefore, only those who know that they have no hope of surviving the catastrophe in this life will use this method to avoid the coming catastrophe and then exhaust their lifespan.

Just like just now, Zhu Zhanqi's energy was blocked by the sword formation. The Heavenly Tribulation could not sense his energy, but the Heavenly Tribulation that had been caused did not dissipate.

But now that the Japanese god has been killed, his energy has been sensed by the Heavenly Tribulation again, and the Heavenly Tribulation will naturally come.

As for why Tian Jie chopped the seven flying swords first, it was naturally because the killing energy of these seven flying swords was too strong, which harmed Tianhe.

After all, the Japanese gods he killed just now are all powerful gods. They are more than one level stronger than the Jianyu Thunder God and his ilk who were killed by him before. If they are really matched one on one, I'm afraid Zhu Zhanjun would have to pay a high price to deal with one of them.

But even so, these great gods showed no power to fight back in the Seven Jue Sword Defeating Heaven Formation. They were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered and were easily slaughtered by Zhu Zhanquan.

For Tiandao, Zhu Zhanqi used the sword formation to kill the Japanese evil god. This was naturally a meritorious service to Tiandao, but this did not mean that Tiandao would let go of such a vicious thing as the Seven Jue Sword Formation.

Under the Heavenly Tribulation, each flying sword was struck by three thunderbolts. This was the destruction of the Seven Ultimate Sword Formation by Heaven, preventing the sword formation from appearing again.

However, after Zhu Zhanquan took back the seven flying swords and inspected them carefully, he also noticed that the flying swords were not destroyed by the tribulation, but there were three more cracks on each flying sword.

Zhu Zhanjun understood that this was the narrow leeway left to him by the way of heaven.

The three cracks mean that he can use the Seven Defeating Heavenly Sword Formation three more times, but every time he activates it, the cracks will expand. When the three opportunities are used up, the cracks on the seven flying swords will destroy the flying swords. From now on, there will be no more Seven Jue Defeating Heavenly Sword Formation.

Even if Zhu Zhanjun wanted to recreate the sword formation, he would not be able to refine seven more flying swords that could serve as the base of the formation.

But for now, the matter of flying swords and sword formations can be left to be thought about later. It is better to survive the catastrophe first.

Zhu Zhanjuan raised his head and looked at the sky. The calamity cloud in the sky had been waiting for a long time, and its power was almost brewing. The reason why it was delayed in coming down was just to give Zhu Zhanjuan time to adjust his condition.

This is the benefit of following the way of heaven. Although the way of heaven is ruthless and selfless, as long as you do things that follow the way of heaven, you may not have any supernatural effects at ordinary times, but in this kind of tribulation or other situations where the way of heaven can appear, you can still enjoy it. Certain preferential treatment.

For example, the Heavenly Tribulation will give you time to adjust your state, and the power of the Heavenly Tribulation will be reduced. In short, this sentence can greatly improve the practitioner's chance of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation.

Just like Zhu Zhanqi now, although he has not yet begun to overcome the tribulation, he has already understood that as long as he resists the seven thunders, he can survive his own tribulation, thereby breaking through the golden elixir and achieving the realm of true immortality. .

So Zhu Zhanjun didn't waste any time. After adjusting his condition, he took the initiative to draw his energy and induced the calamity cloud in the sky.

Immediately, seven bolts of lightning descended from the calamity cloud like seven thunder dragons, striking Zhu Zhanquan's body fiercely.

But when the catastrophe was approaching, Zhu Zhanqi had an expression on his face that didn't know whether to cry or laugh, because these seven tribulations did not cause any damage to his body, but the thunder and lightning contained in the seven tribulations The power was directly injected into his body, helping him to complete the tempering process of being reborn.

The Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Body is a rare and rare encounter even in the world of immortality.

Generally speaking, only those who specialize in physical training can use their physical bodies to resist the thunder and lightning power of the heavenly tribulation during the heavenly tribulation, and then use this to refine themselves.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary practitioners do not have this ability at all, and the power of thunder and lightning in the tribulation will not give you this opportunity.

If you insist on dying and resisting the calamity with your body, you will only be chopped into charcoal.But if it is a great meritorious deed for heaven and earth, that day's calamity will turn into a situation like Zhu Zhanqi's. The power of thunder and lightning in the calamity thunder actively instills and tempers the body, directly reborn from the mortal body and becomes the immortal muscle and jade bone.

Sensing this rare opportunity, Zhu Zhanjun did not dare to neglect it, for fear of wasting this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He immediately threw an alchemy cauldron from his sleeves, sat cross-legged in the air, accepted the baptism of Jie Lei, and began to practice.

As his true energy circulated, the whole person seemed to form a round ball, like a projectile floating in the air.

"Heaven and earth are furnaces, creation is work; yin and yang are charcoal, and all things are copper." A voice came from Zhu Zhanquan's body, and then the alchemy cauldron he threw changed and he was directly put into it.

This is a practice method that Zhu Zhanchun comprehensively improved after collecting many secret techniques and based on the Taoist golden elixir practice method.

In short, the practitioner himself is used as a golden elixir to be sacrificed and refined, and polished and tempered in various ways until the golden elixir has no leakage.

The nine turns of the golden elixir require nine such practices to polish the practitioner to a perfect state that is round, flawless, and free of stains and leaks.

And the verse he said is the key to the practice of this method. Use the heaven and earth as the oven to burn yourself, use the yin and yang creation as the fuel, use the heaven and earth as the raw materials, and finally achieve a round and flawless heart. The Nine Turns Golden Elixir.

As for the alchemy cauldron he threw, it was just a tool to assist cultivation.

As Zhu Zhanquan was struck by seven heavenly thunders and got into the alchemy cauldron, the calamity clouds in the sky began to gradually disperse, which also meant that Zhu Zhanjuan had survived this calamity.

In the alchemy cauldron, the power of thunder and lightning brought by the seven heavenly thunders has been gradually absorbed by Zhu Zhanchun. His muscles, bones, internal organs and meridians have all been baptized by the power of thunder and lightning, and have undergone an essential transformation.

Tempering his body with the power of thunder and lightning itself can transform him from mortal flesh into immortal flesh and jade bones, but Zhu Zhanquan did not passively wait for the power of thunder and lightning to temper his body. Instead, he used the method he created to use this method. A single Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Body is necessary to achieve the first of the nine turns of his golden elixir.

When Zhu Zhanquan completed the first turn of the nine turns of the golden elixir with the help of the power of the sky thunder, he also completed the body tempering by the sky thunder, and his body was essentially changed.

Although he has long since changed his bloodline to become a true dragon and is no longer a mortal, there is still a huge gap compared with the immortal flesh and jade bones that have been baptized by the power of thunder.

In short, one is human and the other is immortal.

At this moment, he felt a stream of pure spiritual energy being generated in his body, passing through his Dantian and meridians, flowing through his internal organs, blood vessels and bones, giving him a feeling of lightness and ecstasy.

Zhu Zhanjun knew that this was the immortal energy born from the immortal body after becoming a true immortal.

Only after using this pure spiritual energy to transform one's own magic power can one truly become an immortal.

If there had not been the water release from the Heavenly Tribulation and the tempering of the power of thunder and lightning, he would still have to use this pure spirit energy to refine his body before he could complete the transformation from mortal flesh to immortal flesh and jade bones.

However, he was lucky. He directly had the power of thunder and lightning from Heavenly Tribulation to temper his body and completed this step ahead of schedule.

However, Zhu Zhanjun did not intend to waste these pure spiritual energy, but continued to operate the method and began the second body tempering, which was also the second turn of the nine turns of the golden elixir.

--------------

When Zhu Zhankui overcame the catastrophe and became an immortal, the people of the Jinyi Guard and the Qingyu Guard were hunting and killing the fleeing Japanese evil gods all over the mountains and plains.

Although the ones with stronger cultivation levels have been killed by Zhu Zhanchun, and most of the rest are just some low-level mountain spirits and monsters, there are too many of them and they are all over the mountains and plains, so it is not easy to clean them up. An easy thing.

Fortunately, with the formation set up by Zhu Zhankun, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.

With the Jade Guard's army encircling and suppressing them, and the Jin Yiwei's experts eliminating them at targeted locations, these evil gods have been gradually cleared area by area.

Although the Japanese evil gods rose up to resist during this process, and some of the monsters with names and surnames are indeed not weak, although the Qingyu Guards are still called by this name, they have already been upgraded to Fanjiang Wei. The main Taoist soldiers of the Dragon Clan Dragon Palace in the Immortal Cultivation World are no longer the same in strength.

If it were a one-on-one duel, they might not be a match for these Japanese evil gods, but when would the army start a one-on-one duel with people?

During the initial training of the Qingyu Guards, they trained one squad after another. Each squad was a combat unit. According to the formation of the Yuanyang Formation, it was particularly able to exert its powerful combat capabilities on such a chaotic battlefield in the mountains.

In particular, the soldiers of the Jade Guard discovered that although the mountain spirits and monsters of the Japanese country in front of them were known as gods, except for a very few special beings, they could not resist the attacks of artillery, muskets, and even swords.

So it became simple. Although they took the sea route this time, they carried the tiger crouching cannon and muskets with them.

Although the Tiger Crouching Cannon has limited power, unless it is a direct hit at close range, it is difficult to directly kill an evil god with one cannon. However, Meng Qinglin also taught them about the Dragon Clan when he trained them to be Fan Jiang Wei. The most basic weapon refining method allows them to refine their own weapons and armor.

So these Jade Guardsmen simply refined the bullets of the muskets and the shells of the Crouching Tiger Cannon, turning them into disposable simple magic weapons.

This has greatly improved the power of these weapons. Although bullets and cannonballs are indeed troublesome to refine, and these are consumables in high demand, it is not a problem for the soldiers of the Jade Guard.

After all, in normal combat and training, you don't need refined bullets and cannonballs, just use ordinary ones.

Ordinary bullets only need to be refined in your free time, and the number accumulated over time is still considerable. Used at critical moments, it is enough to have the final say.

Just like now, some powerful evil gods tried to resist, but they were either beaten to pieces by the Crouching Tiger Cannon, or beaten into pieces by muskets.

As the clearance operation gradually came to an end, the deputy commander of the Qingyu Guard approached several thousand households of the Jinyi Guard and asked them: "Did you see the prince?"

"I haven't seen it before. The prince said before that he wanted to hunt down the powerful existence among the evil gods of the Japanese country. We are not cultivated enough to follow the prince." Qianhu of the Jinyi Guard answered the question of the deputy commander of the Qingyu Guard, and the content of their answer It also made the deputy commander feel worried. (End of chapter)
