Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

Can tribulation clouds be blocked?

If they can be blocked, why didn't Lingxiao do so during her previous transformation lightning tribulation?

Instead, she chose to withstand it with her physical body?

Xu Chengxian looked at Ling Yunzi, hoping to get an answer.

“Lightning tribulation is both a tribulation and an opportunity.”

Ling Yunzi also looked at him, as if wondering how long Xu Chengxian had lived in his previous life, that he didn't even remember this. “Therefore, generally speaking, cultivators will not choose to resist with magical power.”

It can be blocked, but very few people do so.

When tribulation lightning pierces through a cultivator's body,

it can not only temper the physical body but also test the sea of consciousness.

Some daring individuals even use tribulation lightning to condense their divine soul.

After experiencing the lightning tribulation, both the body and the divine soul can obtain great benefits.

It greatly helps cultivators cultivate their divine soul into a Yang God.

And the Yang God condensed by tribulation lightning will have unparalleled advantages when facing future tribulations.

“When Lingxiao transformed, she also borrowed the power of tribulation lightning. Because of this, she obtained more spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and conjured a Dharma robe.”

Ling Yunzi continued, “However, this time entering the Great Demon realm, she doesn't seem to intend to let the lightning tribulation pierce through her physical body and spiritual platform sea of consciousness.”

Or rather, not devote all the tribulation lightning to the cultivation of these two.

“Is it because she doesn't have confidence?” Xu Chengxian asked doubtfully, “So she's using magical power to consume some of the tribulation lightning first?”

“That won't happen.” Ling Yunzi shook his head.

He knew that Lingxiao had actually entered the Great Demon realm two months ago.

She had been accumulating demonic power all along.

Since she decided to undergo tribulation now, it means she already has complete confidence.

For her, winning against Xu Chengxian is important, but she would never waste an opportunity to improve her cultivation for it.

Using tribulation lightning for cultivation is, of course, also a cultivation opportunity.

If Her Majesty the Empress were so muddle-headed, she wouldn't have been able to sit in that position.

The supreme position of power over the world cannot be secured by cultivation talent alone.

“There are nine tribulation lightning strikes in total. This is only the first one.” Ling Yunzi said, “Let's see what happens later, she should have other plans.”

Boom!

Rumble!

Crack!

While the two were talking,

the second heavenly tribulation fell.

Regardless of the tribulation, each tribulation lightning strike is more violent than the last.

But Lingxiao remained as steady as a deity, unmoving.

She once again gathered her magical power, completely concentrating it on her arms and palms.

As if dealing with the first tribulation lightning strike, she raised her hand to resist with magical power.

Whoosh—whoosh—

The raging wind, seemingly capable of tearing everything apart, couldn't get close to her.

Undergoing tribulation, and not seeing any panicked subordinates around her.

Even Cat Nineteen and the others didn't leave the cave.

So Lingxiao has no need to put on an act.

Moreover, pretending would also distract her.

Being able to maintain her expression at least shows that she's not very flustered inside.

“Then why is she giving up the benefits of tribulation lightning tempering her body?” Xu Chengxian didn't understand.

Lingxiao is walking the path of demon cultivation.

She is pursuing bloodline reversion, the ultimate strength of the physical body, and the power of the divine soul.

She has no reason to do this.

“I understand.” Ling Yunzi was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, “Lingxiao is consuming her own demonic power.”

“What the hell?” Xu Chengxian was immediately startled.

Consuming her own demonic power?

Demonic power is the demon race's magical power, the power they can unleash in battle.

Without controllable demonic power, the demon race becomes a tiger with its claws and teeth pulled out.

Wouldn't they be at the mercy of others?

Although Lingxiao is undergoing tribulation now, not in battle.

But if she consumes her demonic power, what about the subsequent tribulation lightning?

Previously, she withstood the tribulation lightning by protecting her vital points with demonic power, offsetting some of the lightning's damage, to avoid being blasted into ashes by the tribulation lightning, right?

“It's consuming demonic power, not consuming all of it.” Ling Yunzi's tone was relaxed because he guessed the purpose of Lingxiao's actions.

“What's the purpose?” Xu Chengxian was dissatisfied.

Why play riddles at this time?

However, in the gap between the two's few words, the third tribulation lightning

arrived.

Boom!

Crack!

Lingxiao's response was the same as before.

Resisting a portion and allowing a portion to strike her body.

Immediately afterward,

came the fourth strike.

And the fifth strike.

By the end of the fifth strike, the sixth tribulation lightning didn't immediately fall.

Instead, there was a pause.

Looking up at the tribulation clouds again,

electric light swirled within the dark clouds, as if the power of electric pythons and lightning serpents was constantly devouring each other within.

This was brewing the sixth tribulation lightning strike.

Obviously, this tribulation lightning strike would be even more terrifying than before.

So, did Heaven have a benevolent heart, giving the tribulation-taker a little preparation time?

Xu Chengxian couldn't help but be amused by his own thoughts.

This is tribulation lightning.

A calamity created by the spirit of heaven and earth to suppress cultivators.

Still benevolent?

Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things as straw dogs, meaning that kittens, puppies, lice, fleas, and humans are all the same in the eyes of the Dao of Heaven.

Cultivators are even more detestable, similar to blood-sucking cockroaches.

… Ugh!

凸(艹皿艹)

Xu Chengxian was disgusted by his own imagination.

“… Old ghost?” Ling Yunzi slightly distanced himself from Xu Chengxian.

“You, are you about to be scared to vomit?”

He had seen before, timid people accidentally entering the place where cultivators were undergoing tribulation, being so frightened that they lost control of their bowels and bladder, vomiting incessantly.

“Vomit? Hmph, how is that possible?” Xu Chengxian raised his head, and then, seeing that Ling Yunzi seemed not to believe him, he added, “I was just thinking, if I swallowed the tribulation lightning, wouldn't it be very prickly.”

“Hmm?”

“The moment I thought about it, I felt like it would prick my throat, causing me to gag.”

“… Hiss!” Ling Yunzi flicked his snake tongue.

“…” Xu Chengxian rubbed his scalp with his tail, also feeling that he had bragged a bit too much, and quickly changed the subject, “What was that you were saying just now, that Lingxiao wasted a few tribulation lightning strikes, did she have some plan?”

“If I'm not mistaken, she wants to use the next three tribulation lightning strikes to temper her demon body.” Ling Yunzi narrowed his eyes slightly.

He was also eager to discard some of the associations that had arisen earlier because of Xu Chengxian's words, so he followed up and said.

“Moreover, perhaps the previous tribulation lightning strikes weren't wasted either.”

The tribulation lightning, with most of its power offset by demonic power, was perfect for condensing the spiritual platform sea of consciousness.

It could also make the human Dharma form more solid and stable.

The demon body would also adapt to the terror of lightning in advance.

Paving the way for the subsequent tempering.

“Tempering the demon body, why consume demonic power first?” Xu Chengxian still didn't understand.

At the same time, he realized that his understanding of cultivation matters was too little.

Perhaps he should have more contact with cultivation methods and tactics in the future, especially spells.

It would be even better if there were notes and travelogues from seniors; he was very interested in them.

He could completely read them first and store them in his sea of consciousness.

When sleeping, he could play them like movies to watch.

Using his imagination, turning them into TV dramas would also be very good.

Aiya!

It seems like he has found a good way to prevent a large amount of sleep time from being boring!

“If the demonic power is not consumed, it will be forced to be activated and agitated to resist the tribulation lightning when the demon body is damaged.” Ling Yunzi sighed.

“The Empress is indeed a decisive person.”

To suppress the demonic power and not resist the tribulation lightning.

It would inevitably disperse the power of the divine soul.

Unfavorable for wholeheartedly condensing the divine soul.

And what Lingxiao wants is precisely the strength of the divine soul, and only secondarily the demon body.

But the spiritual platform sea of consciousness is too important; once it is damaged, it will be irreversible.

Therefore, the power of the tribulation lightning cannot be allowed to fall completely on the sea of consciousness.

On the contrary, most of the lightning must fall on the demon body.

There are still three of the most dangerous tribulation lightning strikes remaining.

She must have the confidence to withstand them.

But there is no way to reduce the pain in the process.

“What a terrifying heart of a strong person!”

Ling Yunzi exclaimed with delight, then looked at Xu Chengxian, “Brother, since you don't remember the matter of tribulation lightning, then what is the most important thing in undergoing tribulation, you should have forgotten it too, right?”

“Then you must remember it well.”

“When undergoing tribulation, whether it is lightning tribulation or wind and fire tribulation, the most feared thing is the shaking of the divine soul, the instability of the mind, and the arising of fear and cowardice.”

“So, the most important thing is an unwavering, firm belief!”

Crack!

Boom!

The sixth tribulation lightning strike fell.
