Chapter 305: A warning sign in the heart, dealing with the aftermath
Chapter 305: A warning sign in the heart, dealing with the aftermath
On an open space outside the Jinling Xianzong base, eight iron towers were erected around an eight-diagram platform. The towers were tall, with their spires pointing to the sky.
He Lingyun stood in the middle of the platform, looked up at the sky, and said nervously: "Brother, is it really okay? I will transcend the tribulation and become an immortal today?"
Wen Rui stood at the bottom of the platform and said, "Don't worry. You have built a mathematical model yourself and verified it. After many simulations, the success rate is over 95%."
"But, it's too fast." He Lingyun was obviously not very confident: "I'm only over 200 years old, I'm really too young. Many demon cultivators over 200 years old have just reached the Anti-Void Stage, but I have to go through the tribulation."
"Don't worry, you can do it." Wen Rui encouraged: "Don't forget, in order to quickly improve your realm to this level, I spent hundreds of millions of spirit stones."
"But if I improve so quickly, will my foundation become unstable and my character become weak, leading to failure in overcoming the tribulation?"
After all, this was He Sheng's first time to pass the tribulation, and He Lingyun was full of concerns: "Generally speaking, it takes a thousand years for the demon race to be considered successful in their cultivation, and only then can they get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven and pass the tribulation to achieve the realm of demon immortals."
What He Lingyun said was exactly the path of advancement for ordinary demon cultivators.
The cultivation aptitude of the human race is ranked among the top among all beings in the Three Realms, but it takes a human cultivator with outstanding aptitude five hundred years to cultivate and become an immortal, which is twice as fast as the thousand-year-long demon immortal.
He Lingyun is 232 years old this year, and it has been 16 years since she first met Wen Rui.
Sixteen years ago, she was only at the Golden Core stage, but in just sixteen years, she had already reached the Great Perfection of the Mahayana stage, and was qualified to survive the thunder tribulation, shed her mortal wings, and ascend to become an immortal.
From a common sense point of view, it is true that progress is too fast, so it is normal to have such concerns and lack of confidence.
Wen Rui had no choice but to persuade him kindly: "Hasn't the theoretical knowledge of surviving the thunder tribulation been broken down and taught to you a long time ago? Surviving the thunder tribulation is not difficult if you know how to do it, but it is difficult if you don't know how to do it. Just treat it as an exam, and an exam that you have reviewed thoroughly. If you think about it this way, what do you have to worry about?"
This was the right remedy for the situation, and He Lingyun thought it made sense. He pondered and recited the knowledge points: "Thunder is an atmospheric discharge phenomenon, the movement of electric charges. Tribulation lightning is a special frequency electric charge that has been programmed with the rules of the Heavenly Dao. When the thunder tribulation comes, you only need to deduce the rules of the Heavenly Dao based on the frequency of the electric charge magnetic field, reversely deduce and analyze it, adjust your own spiritual power fluctuations and cellular biomagnetic field to match it, and then you can secretly conform to the Heavenly Dao, bathe in the thunder tribulation, temper your immortal body, and be reborn..."
"That's right!" Wen Rui nodded in satisfaction and said, "Even Fengchu, that stupid bird who is a poor student, was able to successfully overcome the tribulation by applying this theory. Your calculation ability is so strong that you will definitely be able to calculate the optimal solution to the thunder tribulation in seconds. What are you afraid of?"
The Phoenix Chick that Wen Rui mentioned was naturally Luan Qingyu. She had already transcended the tribulation and become an immortal before He Lingyun, and has now changed her name to Fairy Qingyu.
The little phoenix was able to overcome the tribulation so smoothly. The theoretical knowledge summarized by Wen Rui was certainly important, but there was also a hidden advantage.
That is, the Phoenix clan and the Wen clan are related, and even if Wen Zhong, who is in charge of thunder, is impartial and ruthless, he has to turn a blind eye.
Therefore, there are fallen dragons that fail to survive the tribulation in the world, but there are no phoenixes that fail to survive the tribulation.
"Well, since my senior brother said I can do it, then I can definitely do it!"
He Lingyun plucked up his courage, encouraged himself, looked solemn, raised his head, and gathered his spiritual energy.
The originally clear sky suddenly changed, with dense clouds rolling in and the sky suddenly becoming dark.
The clouds grew thicker and thicker, rumbling thunder was heard in the distance, and silver snakes coiled in the clouds.
The wonderful sight in the sky was the result of the cultivator's cultivation being perfected and the spiritual energy in the sky attracting thunder from the sky.
Wen Rui quietly ordered Jarvis to turn on the full set of monitoring equipment near the Jinling Xianzong base to observe the tribulation phenomenon in all directions and in three dimensions. He had already collected some samples when Luan Qingyu was undergoing the tribulation last time, so this time he would change the sample and observe it again, and also have a comparison reference.
Since returning to the Jinling Immortal Sect, Wen Rui has accelerated the cultivation of He Lingyun and spared no expense to help her practice.
Fortunately, the Jinling Immortal Sect is now extremely rich. Spending hundreds of millions of spirit stones and millions of fairy jades is just a drop in the bucket. Wen Rui didn't even bother to frown at such an expense.
The reason why he was so anxious to help He Lingyun become an immortal quickly was for a reason.
Wen Rui has been feeling a little nervous lately. For someone who has done so much good deeds, this is a warning from heaven.
As the saying goes, those who do evil will eventually perish. Wen Rui carefully reviewed his sinful life and felt that he deserved to die. Although he didn't know what the impending disaster would be, he was a little worried that he would not be able to overcome the coming hurdle.
When doing things, one should consider failure before thinking about success. He needs to deal with his affairs in advance, so as to avoid being unable to react in time when disaster strikes, and leaving regrets after his death.
As for what will happen next, the first thing I will do is to help He Lingyun become an immortal, so that our acquaintance will be worthwhile.
After this little crane becomes an immortal, the worst possible outcome would be for it to be a pet in a lotus pond at the doorstep of some great god.
A vortex-shaped thundercloud gradually took shape, and a golden bolt of lightning struck from the center of the vortex, hitting the center of the Bagua platform exactly, submerging He Lingyun's figure.
This is extremely contrary to physics. Even though there are lightning rods erected on the eight corners of the Bagua Platform, the lightning will not be diverted away. It is as if it is positioned and hits the target exactly.
This golden thunder is different from the thunder that came down when Luan Qingyu was undergoing the tribulation.
The calamity thunder that Luan Qingyu encountered was actually a deep blue fire thunder, which was extremely consistent with her own five elements attributes, and it was so obvious that she was letting her off.
Golden lightning wrapped around He Lingyun, but she did not show any pain at all. Instead, she enjoyed it very much.
The glazed demon-protecting sword slowly rose up, and soon absorbed the golden lightning into the sword body, transforming it into pure life energy, and feeding it back to the sword master He Lingyun.
Wen Rui was not worried that He Lingyun would fail in her tribulation, and even encouraged her to give it a try. One important reason for this was that she was carrying the Demon-Protecting Sword, a magical sword of merit.
Over the years, when Wen Rui was in seclusion for research and development or away from the Jinling Immortal Sect, He Lingyun was the acting sect leader, and she was in charge of the territory at the foot of Lishan Mountain where humans and demons lived together.
Nowadays, the human and demon races in Wenrui's territory have begun to show signs of national integration. The gap between the two races is getting smaller and smaller, and the next generation is even very close.
A small half of the great merit generated by the Jinling Immortal Sect, the Chamber of Commerce, and the territory in protecting the fortune of the demon race was given to He Lingyun, and the Demon Protection Sword was also tempered accordingly, gradually advancing to the level of an acquired merit immortal treasure.
There is a saying about the "three disasters of benefit and harm" in cultivating immortals. The thunder disaster is only the lightest of the three disasters. To achieve a true immortal or a golden immortal in the future, one must also experience the "Yin fire disaster" and the "Bi wind disaster".
Meritorious treasures are most suitable as the basis for achieving enlightenment because they are of great help in overcoming tribulations.
Merits are indestructible, treasures are indestructible, treasures are indestructible, and the owner of the treasures is indestructible.
With only this sword of merit and the merits of protecting monsters that I have gained over the years, what would a mere "heavenly thunder calamity" matter to me?
