Chapter 251: Chapter 251: The Treasure of Fire Lotus Peak
The True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak isolated the Earth Fire as Lu Qinglian reached the three hundred zhang mark.
When she got below three hundred zhang of Earth Fire, even the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak struggled to withstand the increasingly fierce heat of the Earth Fire and the immense pressure.
Lu Qinglian operated the Fire Lotus Swallowing Heaven Scripture with all her might, forming a second barrier with Fire Lotus True Qi.
Even if some Earth Fire penetrated the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak, the Fire Lotus True Qi still acted as a barrier against it.
At five hundred zhang, the Fire Lotus True Qi could not completely isolate the Earth Fire, and Lu Qinglian had no choice but to endure the fiery poison of part of the Earth Fire with her Martial King Divine Physique.
Lu Qinglian\'s face turned crimson, and she clenched her teeth tightly as she finally reached the deep part of the Earth Fire in Fire Lotus Peak, eight hundred zhang away from the surface of the magma.
"What\'s this?"
Lu Qinglian saw a scarlet lotus seed suspended in the midst of the Earth Fire, continuously drawing in the power of the Earth Fire.
"Strange, how can there be a lotus seed with such a color?"
After pondering for a moment, Lu Qinglian reached out and grasped the peculiar lotus seed in her hand.
As the Fire Lotus Seed entered her grasp, a warmth surged through her heart.
Looking around, Lu Qinglian found nothing but the strange Fire Lotus Seed and the endless Earth Fire, so she emerged from eight hundred zhang deep within the Earth Fire with the Fire Lotus Seed in tow.
"Whew."
Drenched in sweat, Lu Qinglian had expended all her True Qi in her effort to explore what treasures lay within the Earth Fire at Fire Lotus Peak.
Lu Qinglian put away the True Dragon Godly Fire Cloak.
"It seems that the anomaly I sensed within the Earth Fire is indeed this Fire Lotus Seed. But what use does it have?"
Lu Qinglian took a Dajuqi Dan to slightly recover her True Qi and began to try to refine the Fire Lotus Seed with the Fire Lotus True Qi.
The Fire Lotus Seed blazed brightly, and the qi of the Earth Fire separated from its source, drawn to the seed and then channeled into Lu Qinglian\'s body through the Fire Lotus Seed.
"This Fire Lotus Seed can gather the qi of the Earth Fire and accelerate the cultivation of the Fire Lotus True Qi!"
Lu Qinglian\'s eyes lit up as she discovered the use of the Fire Lotus Seed.
No wonder the Earth Fire of Fire Lotus Peak had been continuous for three hundred thousand years without any signs of weakening; it was the Fire Lotus Seed that had been drawing the Earth Fire from below the ground.
With this Fire Lotus Seed, Lu Qinglian could gather the power of Earth Fire and boost her cultivation speed.
Still, she faintly felt that the Fire Lotus Seed was not so simple.
"The Fire Lotus Seed might very well be an Immortal Artifact left within the Earth Fire of Fire Lotus Peak by the Sect Leader of Mount Shu three hundred thousand years ago. I wonder what other functions it has?"
Lu Qinglian had obtained the Fire Lotus Seed, but for the time being, she could not fully comprehend its use and could only employ it to hasten her cultivation.
Suddenly, a resounding dragon\'s roar echoed, and Lu Qinglian exited the cave dwellings of Fire Lotus Peak, only to see dense black clouds in the distance, with dazzling thunder lighting up the heavens and the Earth.
"Could it be that Master has made a breakthrough?"
Lu Qinglian quickly summoned her Flying Sword and headed towards the location of Lu Changsheng\'s breakthrough.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The thunderstorm was apocalyptic, with thunder dragons showing their fangs and claws, wreaking havoc and destroying everything in their path!
The Demon-Suppressing Sword was summoned forth, its ten-thousand-zhang radiant sword light as bright as the gigantic thunder dragons formed by the aggregation of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
Lu Changsheng executed a sword technique from the Primordial Sword Scripture, cleaving through the thunder dragons!
Thunder dragons accompanied by countless flashes of lightning descended, like silver snakes dancing wildly.
A bolt of lightning struck Lu Changsheng, who drew the divine thunder for Body Tempering, utterly fearless.
He had achieved the Nine Revolutions Divine Body and the first layer of the Immortal Divine Art; his physique was fully capable of withstanding the might of the fourth layer of the Heavenly Tribulation, even using it for Body Tempering.
This was the inspiration he got when Lu Qinglian was undergoing her tribulation.
"Hiss... As he defeats the Thunder Dragons, he\'s also drawing power from the Heavenly Tribulation for body tempering..."
"This is way too reckless, the slightest misstep could lead to complete annihilation under the enormous heavenly might."
Situ Kong and Taiyuan Zhenren realized that under the immense Heavenly Tribulation, Lu Changsheng was actually trying to use the tribulation for body tempering, which they found unbelievable.
The fourth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation lasted for an hour before it ended.
Lu Changsheng\'s Innate Taoist Body absorbed the pure spiritual energy from within the Golden Crow Divine Furnace and the Yin Yang Flood Dragons Cauldron, trying to replenish his True Qi as much as possible.
Sizzling...
Within the black clouds, thunder rolled, and Nine Heavens Divine Thunder condensed into three Thunder Dragons, roaring heavenward, as if they wanted to swallow Lu Changsheng whole.
The fifth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation was three times more powerful than the fourth!
Even Lu Changsheng was no longer at ease but instead had a serious expression and was fully focused.
Each of these three Thunder Dragons, condensed from the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, was equivalent to an early-stage practitioner in the Unity Realm!
Pure Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Dragons, bearing teeth and claws, pounced towards Lu Changsheng, accompanied by hurricanes and lightning, destroying the land within a hundred miles.
Situ Kong and Taiyuan Zhenren had to steer clear of the Thunder Pond to avoid attracting additional tribulation.
"The power of Changsheng\'s fifth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation even surpasses my sixth wave; it\'s truly astonishing."
Taiyuan Zhenren was completely shocked by the Heavenly Tribulation that Lu Changsheng had attracted.
And this was only the fifth wave.
The fifth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation lasted for two hours.
Within a hundred miles, the land was scorched black; Lu Changsheng, holding the Demon-Suppressing Sword, emanated white vapor from his Innate Taoist Body and looked weary.
The fifth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation was extremely terrifying; even Lu Changsheng, with his Nine Revolutions Divine Body and the first level of the Immortal Divine Art drawing thunder for body tempering, had sustained minor injuries.
The sixth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation would only be more terrifying.
"It seems that I can no longer use the sixth wave of the Heavenly Tribulation for body tempering. I must give it my all, or I will be reduced to ashes."
Lu Changsheng looked up at the sky covered with black clouds, where endless thunder was brewing; this was the last wave of the tribulation to break through to the Unity Realm.
Once he took the last step, he would enter the Unity Realm.
Lu Changsheng took out a Purple Gold Bagua Gourd and hesitated not even for a moment before tearing apart the Talismans used to seal the Demon Core.
The moment the Purple Gold Bagua Gourd was opened, overwhelming Demonic Qi spread out.
The demonic power of the rank ten Demon Core "Demon Dragon Essence Core" spanned a thousand miles.
Lu Changsheng used the Golden Crow Divine Furnace to refine this Demon Core and then frantically devoured its medicinal power.
"Could this be a rank ten Immortal Pill?!"
Taiyuan Zhenren and the Sect Leader Uncle were greatly shocked.
Lu Changsheng actually took out a rank ten Immortal Pill!
What shocked Taiyuan Zhenren and the Sect Leader Uncle even more was that above Lu Changsheng\'s head emerged nine layers of the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, emanating a radiant light that encompassed tens of thousands of feet to protect him.
Apart from the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, the golden bell-formed Gang Qi, formed by the high-level Immortal technique "Golden Bell Shield" that Lu Changsheng cultivated, acted as the second layer of defense.
The Enlightenment Daoist Robe, a lesser Immortal Artifact, served as the third defense.
Lu Changsheng fully activated the Taiqing Wuji Technique, using the tremendous True Qi provided by the Demon Dragon Essence Core to stimulate the treasures within his body.
Countless Flying Swords flew out from Lu Changsheng\'s body, turning into brilliant streaks of light, forming the Grand Thousand Sword Formation in the sky.
Lu Changsheng, holding the Demon-Suppressing Sword and with his Daoist Robe fluttering, deployed all his techniques to confront the Nine Thunder Dragons condensed from the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
