Chapter 477 - Ling Yun Breaks Through the Realm by Tribulation! Xian Er Follows to Death’s Door!

Chapter 477: Ling Yun Breaks Through the Realm by Tribulation! Xian Er Follows to Death’s Door!

Ling Yun’s movements, aura, gaze, gallantry, power, charisma, and arrogance were in full-view!

He was the only person in the entire world that was unafraid of facing Heaven’s Tribulation. He even pointed at the tribulation cloud daringly!

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Lightning bolts descended one after another, a total of seventy-two strikes, and each strike was as thick as an arm. Within two minutes, all of them struck down at once!

Ling Yun stood there without moving a muscle. He only used his sturdy body to endure the first wave of lightning tribulation. He didn’t suffer a single injury!

Even though Ling Yun was very proud, he dared not let his guard down. He knew that the Four Nine Minor Tribulation had four waves and that this was only the first wave. After this, there were still three more to go!

He used the Stellar Condensation Technique to withstand the lightning tribulation and used the Yin-Yang harmony balance to absorb the power from the lightning. He continued cultivating the meridians and energy center within his body as he waited for the next wave of lightning to descend.

The Heavenly Dao’s oppression was strong, but it was nothing for Ling Yun’s soul, which had undergone tribulation. He got through it easily.

One had to know that Ling Yun’s soul had escaped from the terrifying Heaven’s Tribulation before. In fact, it had survived all of the strong tribulations at the start. It only failed to get through the all-powerful Purple God of Thunder at the end.

The Four Nine Minor Tribulation’s oppression was nothing compared to that.

“Boom boom boom…” The dull, depressing sound of thunder resounded again.

“Chk!” A flash of lightning about half a meter thick shot out from the tribulation cloud, as if it were a shiny, sparkling silver dragon. In an instant, it pierced Ling Yun’s body!

“Boom!”

Even though Ling Yun had prepared himself mentally, he didn’t expect the second wave of lightning tribulation to be so terrifying. This flash of lightning tossed him dozens of meters away!

F*ck! How the hell is this the Four Nine Minor Tribulation! Ling Yun’s body flew aside horizontally. He barely steadied himself as he checked his own body. With that strike, his skin tore apart, exposing his flesh!

His gaze turned serious as he sensed something wasn’t right. This was only the second wave, but the lightning was already half a meter thick. Furthermore, it even injured him. If that were the case, how could he withstand the next two waves?

This wasn’t a joke. Even though Bai Xianer had been struck to the point that she no longer had any flesh, she was still a nine-tailed celestial fox. She was a spiritual beast. Obviously, she could survive through that kind of condition. That was because, in order to transform, a fox’s body had to be completely rebuilt from the lightning tribulation. That was the only way they could turn into a real human.

Of course, Bai Xianer was originally a nine-tailed celestial fox. She could regenerate a nine-tailed celestial fox’s body. That was the special characteristic of all demonic cultivators.

However, if Ling Yun suffered through the same treatment and lost any part of his body, he would become a true cripple. His tribulation wasn’t about going through a transformation!

Without allowing Ling Yun to think deeper, the second strike of lightning landed on his body. With a resounding bang, he was tossed dozens of meters away even though he was prepared for it. His exposed flesh was scorched black!

“D*mn you!”

Ling Yun was starting to feel his rage boil. Pulling out a Healing Talisman, he used it on himself instantly. He hurriedly treated his injuries as he took out a handful of Lightning Trap, Gold, and Defense Talismans at the same time. He used them all on himself.

Ling Yun instinctively felt that the lightning tribulation this time wasn’t as simple as a Four Nine Minor Tribulation.

The tribulation cloud flipped about, and it was practically right above Ling Yun’s head. Without giving Ling Yun a second chance, the lightning got thicker and more material, as if it were a real lightning rod. It charged straight at Ling Yun.

Each strike of lightning sent him flying dozens of meters. Each time, it ripped his flesh open. This caused Ling Yun’s injuries to worsen. Towards the end, he didn’t even dare to use the Healing Talismans anymore. He was left with less than two bundles, so he had to start saving them up.

However, even if that were the case, Ling Yun continued to use his Yin-Yang harmony balance, absorbing the energy from the lightning continuously. This situation was both a win and a loss for him.

Ling Yun’s meridians and energy center collected all of the pure Yang Qi. It was sufficient for him to reach Physique Tempering Stage Seven!

This was definitely a treasure-trove for Ling Yun’s cultivation. It was even better than using dragon saliva and Xiantian True Qi!

Lightning began to strike down on Ling Yun consecutively. This time, Ling Yun was truly injured all over. He was completely scorched black. Amidst the excruciating pain, which became harder to bear each time, his gaze became clearer, and his expression became increasingly determined!

He thought seriously as he took out a large handful of Healing Talismans. Using all of them to heal his wounds, he used the Lightning Trap, Gold, and Defense Talismans on himself again.

After that, he pulled out the magical gourd and drank as much dragon saliva as he could before putting it away.

If he wanted to break through and reach Physique Tempering Stage Seven, using the lightning tribulation was the only way. Otherwise, with his current abilities, he could probably make it through the third wave. However, there was no way he could make it through the fourth!

Ling Yun thought quietly as he pulled out the Bodhi Bead from the storage ring and clutched it in his hands.

Even though he had sworn to throw it away, Ling Yun definitely couldn’t bear to do it for real. That was because every time he held it in his hands, his mind would become clearer, helping him with his decision-making.

“Ha…” Ling Yun exhaled heavily as he calmed his wits and steadied his breath. Sitting down slowly with his legs crossed, he held the bead as he began using Yin-Yang harmony balance with utmost focus. Using the Yin-Yang Qi in his body, he continued absorbing the lightning’s power and the dragon saliva. He began to work on breaking through into the next realm!

Right now, the eighteenth strike of lightning had descended, and there were eighteen more to go. This was the thirty-sixth Tiangang God of Thunder. The nineteenth strike had already become two meters thick. A divine dragon about the size of a lightning rod pierced through the earth from the heavens, engulfing Ling Yun!

“Boom!” This time, Ling Yun flew nearly a hundred meters away!

However, he had already transitioned into a state where he was no longer focused on his physical body. Maintaining his cross-legged posture, he continued to break through his realm with full force!

Luckily, Ling Yun only suffered from external injuries. It was due to the lightning descending one after another that his Healing Talismans couldn’t heal his body in time. However, his meridians and energy center were unharmed.

The Yin-Yang fish in his magical energy center began circulating madly once again, causing the Yin-Yang Qi in his body to begin expanding quickly. With the dragon saliva Qi’s stimulus, the dragon-shaped streaks in Ling Yun’s energy center began glowing gold. His entire energy center glowed a light gold color!

The Bodhi Bead truly allowed his cultivation speed to soar. Even though he was amidst the lightning tribulation, Ling Yun seemed to be completely unaffected by external stimulus. He focused solely on breaking through to the next realm!

He started his transition into his breakthrough state. Ling Yun knew that the important moment had finally arrived and began channeling the Yin-Yang harmony balance with everything he had!

“Boom!” The twenty-seventh strike of lightning was at least three meters thick. It descended dangerously, engulfing Ling Yun in it completely!

This time, the effects of Ling Yun’s Lightning Trap, Gold, and Defense Talismans had just faded as well. Ling Yun’s body took the full brunt of the strike of lightning!

Ling Yun’s cultivating body quivered violently, and he was struck until he flew dozens of meters above ground, landing hundreds of meters away. Despite that, he remained in his cross-legged pose, doing everything in his power to absorb the power from the lightning!

However, the power from the lightning was far too terrifying. Ling Yun had only absorbed a tiny portion before his body couldn’t take any more. He intended to use that momentum to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Seven.

Since Ling Yun’s eyes were closed, he didn’t see that the part of the energy he couldn’t absorb was completely sucked into his Bodhi Bead!

There was a mysterious Buddha’s pattern engraved on the Bodhi Bead. It seemed to come alive in that instant as if it were a real tiny human, and it emitted a light glow!

This was a very intriguing sight. However, Ling Yun didn’t see it.

Ling Yun’s physical injuries were extremely serious. However, his True Qi was much stronger than it had ever been!

With the help of that overwhelming strike of lightning, Ling Yun maximized the strength of his Yin-Yang harmony balance technique!

Forgetting about everything in the material world, his beliefs and his determination merged into one as he placed all his efforts into breaking through!

Unfortunately, even after he completely absorbed all of the power from that strike of lightning, Ling Yun didn’t manage to achieve a breakthrough.

Ling Yun seemed nonchalant about that. This was the real entrance to the next level. It was even harder than pushing through Physique Tempering Stage Four in the past. Cultivating like this in the hopes of soaring at once was impossibly difficult. Ling Yun understood this more than anyone else. Therefore, he was not in a rush.

The twenty-eighth strike of lightning descended. Ling Yun absorbed it again, pushing through with his attempt at a breakthrough. He was willing to try as many times as he needed!

Ling Yun’s brows were unmoving. However, he failed once again!

The twenty-ninth strike…

The thirty-second strike…

The thirty-fifth strike…

Going at it for the eighth time, he ended up with nothing. Despite that, his mind remained firm, and he refused to give up. He continued to push forth!

He failed each time but continued to use the power generated from the lightning tribulation to push through to the next level. He didn’t care about how many times he failed. His beliefs were stronger than at any other moment!

If he wanted to do it, he had to do it the best and make it to the very top!

Not leaving any reason to regret, this was Ling Yun’s philosophy!

However, Ling Yun didn’t realize that the thirty-fifth strike of lightning was actually no longer silver. Rather, it was light gold!

Similarly, he didn’t realize that his body had been pierced with hundreds of holes. It was even more horrifying than the time he had used his Fire Talismans to kill Yusei Saburo!

Ling Yun also didn’t realize that Bai Xianer, who had just completed her tribulation, would move a distance within a hundred meters of him as she protected him silently. She ensured that she was always a leap away from him!

For Bai Xianer, Ling Yun could complete a hundred man slaughter without hesitation. Using every method he had in his arsenal, he was ruthless!

Similarly, for Ling Yun’s sake, Bai Xianer continued chasing after his shadows even though she was still recovering from her Heaven Tribulation!

Bai Xianer had forgotten all about her fear and safety, placing all thoughts of death faraway. Each time lightning pierced him, she would follow after him. If he lived, she would too. If he died, she would follow!

Bai Xianer stared at the boy who was impossibly resilient and determined to achieve a breakthrough, following him to death’s door!

The feelings between a human and a demon were observed quietly by the mountains, the vast oceans, and the rumbling tribulation clouds!

Bai Xianer knew that Ling Yun couldn’t see or hear. However, she didn’t care. Sometimes, a demon’s heart was stronger than a human’s!

“Boom!” The thirty-sixth strike of lightning descended!
