Chapter 675: The Tribulation of Enlightenment, the Eternal Dao Body

Chapter 675: The Tribulation of Enlightenment, the Eternal Dao Body
Woo~
The moment he stepped out of the small cave, Li Yuan felt a chill in his heart and subconsciously activated Kunming's ten thousand heavy armor.

"This is?"

Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he felt a deep, cold, and omnipresent murderous intent!
He looked around and felt that there was a chilling murderous intent in the Dongxuan Mountain, whether it was the grass, the sunset glow, or the breeze.

"Heaven sends murderous intent!"

This thought popped up in Li Yuan's mind.

There are tribulations in spiritual practice, starting with enlightenment. Every step is a tribulation, and it all comes from heaven!

This is what he read in a travelogue. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but at this moment, feeling the omnipresent murderous intent, he suddenly remembered this sentence.

"The sky is sending out murderous intent. Is this a sign of the coming of the calamity of enlightenment?"

"It's only been a little over ten years, and yet another senior brother is about to go through the tribulation of becoming a Daoist?"

"I'm lucky. I actually saw my senior brother going through the tribulation. This tribulation is a top-notch scene. It's hard to see it under normal circumstances!"

"The senior brother who is overcoming the tribulation is... Qi Yun?"

Almost at the same time, Li Yuan walked out of the small cave, and figures from other small caves also flew out, looking around, some in surprise, some in confusion.

Many people counted on their fingers to figure out who the person who was going to survive the tribulation was, but after thinking about it, they remembered Brother Qi Yun, who was the one who offered the treasure in name only and who usually kept a low profile.

Boom!

There were muffled thunder rumbling in the sky. Unlike natural celestial phenomena, the sound of this muffled thunder contained an extremely cruel murderous intent, which made people shudder with fear.

"The calamity of cultivation begins with attaining enlightenment. I wonder if Senior Brother Qi Yun can survive this calamity..."

Li Yuan thought the sound sounded familiar, so he looked in the direction of the voice and saw a cloud flowing around him. Wang Jing looked into the distance, seeming to be sighing with emotion.

"Senior Brother Wang."

Li Yuan bowed his hands in greeting, and Yu Huanzhen returned the greeting. Then he was startled and bowed to Yu Huanzhen who was walking out: "Senior Sister Yu."

Yu Huanzhen nodded slightly and looked towards the distant mountains:

"Senior Brother Qi is out."

The place that Qi Yun chose to cross the tribulation was thousands of miles away from Dongxuan Mountain. This distance was naturally not far for the disciples of Dongxuan Mountain. They could see it with a little concentration.

On a barren mountain thousands of miles away, in the raging wind, Qi Yun slowly walked out, stood on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back, waiting for the catastrophe to come.

"Senior Brother Qi has a solid foundation."

Yu Huanzhen praised it.

Li Yuan concentrated his mind and could faintly feel Qi Yun's aura rising into the sky like a wolf smoke, rising continuously, as if it was about to reach beyond the ninth level of the Gale Sky.

Boom!

As if sensing Qi Yun's rising energy, the thunder in the sky suddenly became louder. In just a few moments, endless dark clouds rolled in from all directions.

The inky black sea of ​​clouds was extremely sticky, far beyond anything comparable to natural landscapes. For a moment, it even felt as if day and night were reversed over that vast area.

Dongxuan Mountain is not among them.

Li Yuan looked up and found that there was almost no shadow above or below Dongxuan Mountain. The dark clouds that covered the sky actually bypassed Dongxuan Mountain, and the murderous intent was pouring down on the distant mountains.

"The divine runes are more active than ever before..."

Li Yuan was keenly aware of the abnormality and he concentrated his attention.

The distant mountains were covered with dense dark clouds, thunder dragons were roaring, and electric snakes were rolling, presenting all kinds of violent scenes. There were many divine patterns contained in it, and the aura of high-quality divine patterns could be faintly sensed.

"The Dao-enlightenment calamity is a top-notch place to collect scenery. The scenery it creates will be different depending on the calamity it is inflicting. But no matter what kind of Dao-enlightenment calamity it is, it will inevitably be accompanied by thunder and lightning..."

Yu Huanzhen spoke at the right time:
"Junior Brother Li, grasp the opportunity. Don't be too close, and don't be too far away. Besides picking the divine runes, don't make any movements, otherwise you will be locked by the Dao Tribulation."

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Sister."

Li Yuan remembered it in his heart, and at the same time took off the five senses set, controlling all the mysterious weapons including the 'Escape Sky Boat' one by one, preparing to pick the divine pattern.

When the Dao calamity comes, no one can intervene. Whether they want to help or harm, they will be targeted by the Dao calamity.

"It's about to begin!"

Wang Jingyi's voice was low.

Thousands of miles away, dark clouds suddenly pressed down, and rolling thunder and lightning poured down like a waterfall, submerging the mountains in the violent lightning.

That overwhelming and violent aura can make people tremble with fear even from a distance of tens of thousands of miles.

"Crack!"

The lightning rolled down like a waterfall, and on the barren mountain, Qi Yun, who had been accumulating strength for two years, raised his hand and made a gesture, and a bright green light burst out from between the mountains, meeting the thunder waterfall.

"Aoki Transformation Thunder Formation."

Yu Huanzhen was knowledgeable and did not forget to explain to Li Yuan while watching the battle.

Li Yuan nodded. He possessed five black vine snake skins and knew more about this than Yu Huanzhen.

The brilliant green light is a lightning formation, which is a method of transforming disasters recorded in the Green Emperor's Longevity Sutra. Because it comes from one's own body, it does not increase the violence of the thunder disaster, but it also does not damage one's own magic power.

Not only did Li Yuan know this, he could also deploy it if he had the magic power of the Green Emperor and the corresponding divine patterns, and if the Black Vine Snake was promoted to the peak of the fifth realm.

"boom!"

The waterfall-like lightning flashed for a full cup of tea. When the blue light in the sky dissipated, Qi Yun let out a long sigh, gently held up his Taoist crown, and said "Chang"!
hum!
The extinguished green light reappeared in an instant, like a tsunami rising into the sky, and at the critical moment, it blocked the next wave of waterfall-like lightning.

This wave of lightning was more ferocious than the previous one. After the lightning dissipated, the green light was almost extinguished, but Qi Yun said "long" again.

An even brighter green light rose again.

This was repeated eight times, and Qi Yun didn't even activate his magic weapon, let alone cast any spells.

"Is this okay?"

When Li Yuan heard one of his fellow apprentices exclaim in surprise, he was also quite surprised.

He knew about this formation, but he did not expect it to be so powerful that it could withstand eight waves of thunder waterfalls in a row.

"The Qing Emperor's Longevity Scripture is worthy of being the first of the Five Scriptures. The method of averting disasters and avoiding calamities is truly ingenious. No wonder it is called the 'Longevity Scripture'..."

Someone else was praising it.

Li Yuan took a quick glance and found that it was Yuan Han. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, with a look of approval.

"boom!"

The thunder waterfall rolled, and there were as many as eighteen waves in succession. However, the green light like a curtain managed to withstand the eighteen waves of thunder, which surprised many Dongxuan disciples.

There are countless skills and magical powers in Dongxuan Mountain. Although the Qingdi Longevity Sutra is a great scripture, not everyone knows it. Seeing it now, one can't help but be amazed.

And then, Qi Yun displayed all the mysteries of the Qing Emperor's Longevity Sutra.

After the thunder waterfall, the violent thunder dragons were also slain one by one, and he had not yet used any magic weapons or spells, and he was still in his prime!
"This should be the seventh level of tribulation. Is Senior Brother Qi Yun's foundation so profound?"

After two thunder tribulations, many knowledgeable disciples of Dongxuan Mountain already knew how many levels of enlightenment tribulation Qi Yun had to go through.

"The first six levels should be no problem for Senior Brother Qi."

Yu Huanzhen paused for a moment and looked at Li Yuan: "Junior brother, you can go pick the divine patterns now. Remember not to break any taboos..."

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister."

Li Yuan was well prepared. With a change of mind, he transformed into a ray of golden light and flew away. This was the Tianpeng escape technique that he had cultivated to the 30th level.

In less than a moment, he had crossed thousands of miles and arrived near the calamity of enlightenment under the astonished eyes of many Dongxuan disciples.

Rumble!
The thunder dragon rolled away, making a sound that shook the world.

Li Yuan just listened and felt his whole body go numb. He couldn't even control the Tianpeng escape technique and had to activate his Wanzhong armor.

"This is just the outermost area. If you step inside, you will be reduced to ashes immediately!"

Li Yuan was a little frightened. He avoided the area where thunder and lightning were occurring, communicated with the black vine tree, and went towards the divine pattern he sensed. He looked towards the center of the thunder tribulation.

Qi Yun stood on the top of the mountain, allowing the lightning to get higher and higher, but he remained unmoved, obviously he was well prepared.

"call!"

Li Yuan did not dare to look at it for too long. It was very dangerous to capture the scenery during a thunderstorm, and the opportunity was fleeting, so he immediately concentrated on capturing the scenery.

"The divine pattern of the word 'Zhen' is usually created at the moment of the thunderbolt..."

Li Yuan concentrated his mind and grasped the opportunity. After failing several times, his heart was slightly shaken, and a dark mist was guided by him. "It's done!"

After picking up the divine pattern, Li Yuan didn't even have time to pick one more. He turned around and disappeared at the outermost edge of the thunder tribulation. He felt an indescribable terrifying aura brewing.

boom!
Almost at the same time when Li Yuan flew back to Dongxuan Mountain, a shocking collision sound was heard.

He looked back.

I saw a terrifying black light like a pillar of heaven, connecting the dark clouds and the earth, completely extinguishing the surging green light.

"Om~"

The next moment, under the extinguished green light, a giant black jade tree rose from the ground. It had grown to a height of thousands of feet in a flash, and its trunk was as straight as the ridge of the sky.

It actually pierced through the sky full of thunderclouds!
"Xuan Teng Tree!"

Li Yuan concentrated on watching the disaster.

A towering tree broke through the sea of ​​thunder, and soon all kinds of wonders emerged. The area covered by dark clouds instantly turned into a scene of green grass and mountains and rivers giving gifts.

"This is Brother Qi's Dharma Realm!"

Li Yuan recognized the origin of this strange sight and was immediately shocked. After the Dharma Realm emerged, it slowly rose into the air and was lifted up by Qi Yun, soaring into the sky.

“The Dharma Realm ascends to heaven!”

"it is good!"

"The giant tree breaks the catastrophe, the Dharma realm ascends to heaven, the Qing Emperor's Longevity Sutra is truly amazing!"

Seeing this scene, people in Dongxuan Mountain cheered immediately. This was the last step after passing the sixth level of tribulation.

Li Yuan looked at Yuan Han, Yu Huanzhen and other disciples and found that they looked quite serious, as if their calamity of becoming a god had just begun.

"Brother Yuan, what do you think is the chance that Brother Qi will be able to successfully overcome the tribulation?"

Yu Huanzhen suddenly asked.

Li Yuan couldn't help but look at Yuan Han, who remained calm and said, "It depends on his luck."

"luck?"

Li Yuan was stunned.

"When it comes to the tribulation of becoming a Buddha, luck is the most important thing."

Yu Huanzhen nodded in agreement. Seeing Li Yuan in a daze, he explained:
"These are not just words from the two of us, but are universally acknowledged."

"Junior Brother Li, this must be the first time you see someone transcending a tribulation, otherwise you wouldn't have such doubts."

Yuan Han raised his head:

"coming!"

boom!
Li Yuan looked into the distance.

Qi Yun was seen standing with his hands hanging down, lifting the Dharma Realm up to heaven. In the dark clouds, countless thunders rolled and rushed towards the Dharma Realm.

Some were blocked by the green light, some were blocked by the Taoist soldiers in the Dharma Realm, and extremely intense fighting broke out. Almost every moment, a Taoist soldier was shot down by thunder.

But the Dharma Realm is about to break out of the catastrophe.

It was at this moment that Li Yuan felt a chill in his heart, and then he heard the deep and rhythmic sound of huge drums.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

It was as if an ancient god was holding stars and bombarding the sky. The huge drumbeats echoed for tens of thousands of miles, and everyone who heard the sound felt their blood boiling.

"This is the seventh calamity..."

Li Yuan endured the discomfort of his blood boiling and saw a ray of purple light shining in the center of the inky black cloud. Then, it was like a group of stars falling at night.

Thousands of purple dots of light appeared.

Those light spots changed in various ways, sometimes turning into thunder dragons and electric snakes, sometimes turning into mountains and stars, and finally, they turned into Taoist soldiers wearing strange armor, holding spears, knives, or swords!

"boom!"

The next moment, tens of thousands of thunder and lightning soldiers slammed towards the crumbling Dharma Realm like a rain curtain.

"long!"

Qi Yun let out a long roar, and the black vine tree in the center of the Dharma Realm trembled suddenly. The branches and leaves that covered the sky and the sun turned into thousands of thick and long vines, which lashed fiercely towards the thunderclouds.

The loud explosions overlapped with each other, and countless Thunder Tribulation Dao soldiers were knocked down by the Black Vine Snake, but more emerged.

The Taoist soldiers trained in Qi Yun's Dharma Realm also rushed out one after another, and under the watchful eyes of many Dongxuan disciples, extremely brutal fights broke out.

Qi Yun himself looked solemnly towards the center of the thundercloud, as if waiting for judgment, waiting for the evolution of that dazzling purple light.

"That purple light?"

Li Yuan just glimpsed it from afar, and he felt a chill in his heart, as if an invisible hand was grasping his heart, and he had difficulty breathing.

"The calamity of Taoism."

Yu Huanzhen looked solemn and explained softly.

The calamity of Taoism is a calamity that is bound to occur no matter how many calamities of Taoism one has experienced, and it is also the greatest calamity.

"This calamity will reflect the shadows of all the people who have achieved enlightenment throughout the ages when they were overcoming the calamity, covering an infinite depth..."

Yuan Han couldn't help but speak:
"In the past, when a senior brother of the previous generation was trying to pass the tribulation, the tribulation actually reflected the shadow of a divine marquis from the Origin Divine Dynasty ten centuries ago. He failed to pass the tribulation by a single move!"

Such luck!

Li Yuan was shocked, yet also somewhat confused.

He had heard similar statements before, but he had not expected that this calamity would cover such a wide range, and not what he had previously thought, that someone with karma would come to block his way.

"This really depends on luck..."

Watching the brutal fight among tens of thousands of Taoist soldiers in the thunder tribulation, Li Yuan finally understood why so many cultivators could gather in the fighting arena.

Even if one has god-level talent and is unparalleled in fighting, if one is unlucky and encounters the incarnation of Tao of the supreme being, he will fail to overcome the tribulation.

"It seems that Senior Brother Qi is lucky."

Hearing Yu Huanzhen's voice, Li Yuan controlled the five senses and looked intently. He saw a burly figure made of purple lightning walking out of the center of the thundercloud.

"Senior sister, do you recognize me?"

Li Yuan could not make out anything. He only felt that the burly figure had a huge and terrifying aura, but he did not know which god it was.

"I don't recognize it."

Yu Huanzhen shook his head: "It's because I don't recognize it that I say I'm lucky. If someone came out that I could recognize at a glance, there would be no need to look again."

"That's true."

Li Yuan came to his senses and decided that he would go to the Sutra Library later to see if there was any "List of Strongest People in Ancient and Modern Times" or something like that.

boom!
Lightning flashed again in the distance, and then the thunderclouds covering thousands of miles were instantly dispersed by the light.

Even with the superposition of his five senses, Li Yuan could no longer see the scene in the light curtain. He could only vaguely see the magical lights flickering and flickering.

Not long after, accompanied by a high-pitched roar that reached the sky, Qi Yun, with blood all over his body and hair flying wildly, rushed out from the thunder tribulation:

"My way has been accomplished!"

boom!
As the sound waves echoed, the brilliant green light had already dispersed the thunderclouds for thousands of miles. All kinds of wonders evolved and appeared and disappeared, and fairy light and rosy glow filled the sky for thousands of miles.

Then, under the gazes and congratulations of many Dongxuan disciples, Qi Yun raised Fatian high and disappeared into the sky.

He also has to devote his entire life to elevating the Dharma Realm to the highest possible level.

Successfully overcame the tribulation!

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Qi for successfully overcoming the tribulation!"

In Dongxuan Mountain, congratulations were heard everywhere, and Li Yuan also saluted from a distance.
