Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 252 Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, Calamity Thunder Gu Unleashed

However, Zhou Sui also knew that this was just the beginning.

In the first trial, many Gold Core cultivators can achieve the Nascent Soul stage. The second trial, the Heart Demon Tribulation, and the third trial, the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, are the real challenges.

Countless Heaven Spirit Root cultivators have fallen in these two great tribulations.

Boom~~~

At this moment, Zhou Sui sensed that within the two Cave Mansions, Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi immediately entered the Heart Demon Tribulation.

A wave of invisible demonic energy emanated from them.

It seemed as if their entire beings were enveloped by immense demonic energy, and numerous heart demons entered their bodies.

They sat cross-legged on the ground, their brows furrowed, and sweat pouring down like rain.

Obviously, they were in a fierce battle, fighting against the heart demons.

If they fail, their many years of cultivation will be destroyed.

Only cultivators with an extremely strong Dao heart can pass this trial.

Of course, there is also a shortcut, which is to obtain a Nascent Soul spirit item that can resist heart demons.

For example, the Spirit Medicine Bodhi Fruit.

It is said that by consuming a Bodhi Fruit, one's Dao heart becomes clear, allowing them to discern the truth of the heart demons.

No heart demon can disturb their mind.

In this way, the difficulty of the Heart Demon Tribulation can be greatly reduced.

Unfortunately, such Nascent Soul spirit items are extremely rare, and even Nascent Soul sects find it difficult to produce them.

"It seems that I need to take action."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He sensed that the brows of Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi were becoming increasingly furrowed, and the demonic aura on their bodies became extremely dense, almost solidifying. Drops of blood flowed from their noses.

Clearly, their situation was not good.

Even with their cultivation level, it would be difficult for them to pass this Heart Demon Tribulation.

After all, the Heart Demon Tribulation is widely recognized as the greatest challenge.

Boom~~

At this moment, Zhou Sui activated the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra, the second level of the Demon Summoning Technique.

Endless demonic energy gathered around his body, forming a massive vortex.

Waves of supreme demonic sounds emanated from him, creating unique resonances.

Due to the extremely high frequency, human ears and divine senses cannot perceive it.

Only heart demons can listen to it, and it will greatly attract them.

It is like the song of a sea monster, producing a powerful enchanting sound.

It can be said that this is the power of the Demon Summoning Technique, capable of enchanting heart demons.

Buzz~~~

At this moment, Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi, who were in a critical situation, immediately experienced something unusual.

Black spheres flew out of their bodies, and they were none other than demons.

Terrifying demonic energy permeated them.

Hatred, greed, jealousy, hunger, madness, and other negative emotions converged in these demons.

It was as if the demons were the embodiment of all the negative emotions in the world.

They heard the summoning spell, as if they were hearing their own mother's call.

One by one, they flew out of the two women and came to Zhou Sui's side.

Thud!

When these demons approached, Zhou Sui's body trembled. He immediately felt as if he had fallen into extremely realistic illusions, almost unable to distinguish between reality and falsehood.

It seemed that with a slight carelessness, he would sink into the illusions created by the demons and be unable to extricate himself.

At this moment, he realized the horror of the demons.

They were like the most skilled illusion masters in the world, able to perceive the cracks and flaws in the depths of human souls.

It could be said that they understood you better than anyone else, knowing your confusion, your fears.

And then, using these flaws, they completely defeated you and devoured your soul.

Fortunately, Zhou Sui's spiritual power was extremely powerful, comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator.

So even though the illusions created by these demons were very realistic, he still perceived a trace of falsehood, keeping his consciousness clear.

"What an opportunity."

"Dream Soul Gu, swallow them for me."

With a thought, Zhou Sui immediately gave an order to the Dream Soul Gu.

For the Dream Soul Gu, these demons were undoubtedly one of the best supplements in the world.

Eating a demon could greatly increase its own power and accelerate its growth rate.

Upon hearing Zhou Sui's command, it became extremely excited and immediately pounced.

Crackling~

In an instant, the demons from Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi were swallowed by the Dream Soul Gu in one bite.

"Ah ah ah!!"

These demons seemed to sense a deadly crisis and let out a miserable scream, trying to escape.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

They were like encountering a natural enemy, with no way to retreat and no ability to struggle.

In just a breath's time, the Dream Soul Gu swallowed all these demons.

At this moment, the Dream Soul Gu seemed to have consumed a great tonic, breathing a sigh of relief, its expression very satisfied, and its power visibly increasing.

It seems to have rapidly grown to the perfect state of Rank Three High Grade.

If it continues to grow, it is afraid that it will soon be promoted to the realm of Rank Four.

"Hmm? What's going on? Why did the heart demon suddenly disappear?"

At this time, Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi finally woke up from the heart demon calamity. The two of them almost couldn't bear the power of the heart demon calamity. If they were swallowed by the heart demon, their Dao hearts would collapse and they would die.

But because the heart demons in their bodies were eaten by Zhou Sui's Dream Soul Gu, they naturally passed through the heart demon calamity.

After all, without even the heart demon, where would there be any calamity?

It's like the heart is a mirror, and the heart demon is the dust on the mirror.

Generally speaking, this dust can only be swept away by oneself in order to make the Dao heart clear and bright like a mirror.

But now, Zhou Sui cheated directly.

He helped Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi to remove the dust deep in their hearts and swallowed the heart demons.

So they easily passed this heart demon calamity.

"Don't be distracted."

"I helped you swallow the heart demon and pass the heart demon calamity."

"Now continue to form your Nascent Souls."

"And the third Heavenly Thunder Tribulation has not yet arrived."

At this time, Zhou Sui's divine sense transmitted a message, reminding Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi.

After all, after passing the heart demon calamity, the Nascent Soul in their bodies will further grow. They cannot waste this great opportunity, otherwise all previous efforts will be in vain.

"So it was Husband's help."

"No wonder I felt that the heart demon calamity was so easy to pass."

"This is too amazing. Can Husband even help us pass the heart demon calamity?"

Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi were both delighted. They never expected that their heart demon calamity was actually helped by their Husband to pass. This kind of Divine Ability is truly unimaginable.

To be honest, they knew how terrifying the heart demon calamity was.

When they fell into the illusion of the heart demon just now, it was a calamity that directly targeted the weaknesses deep in their hearts. They almost couldn't recover and couldn't come back.

To be honest, they thought that their Dao hearts were solid and they could easily pass the heart demon calamity relying on themselves.

But what happened just now reminded them that the heart demon calamity is indeed the greatest calamity for cultivators.

Sometimes it is even more terrifying than the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

Because to pass the heart demon calamity, one needs to overcome oneself.

Many talented cultivators can easily defeat others, but it is almost impossible to defeat oneself.

That's why many Heaven Spirit Root cultivators have fallen one after another in the heart demon calamity.

"Fortunately, Husband helped, otherwise we would be finished this time."

Lin Yazhu felt extremely fortunate.

She felt that she had been too arrogant before and underestimated the terrifying level of the Heart Demon Tribulation.

Her Dao Heart was simply insignificant to the Heart Demon.

Perhaps she thought her Dao Heart was flawless, but in reality, there were still many flaws.

There were many things she feared.

For example, she was afraid of growing old and being abandoned by her husband; she was afraid of failing in Transcending Tribulation and dying; she was afraid of not being able to shoulder the responsibility of being the Sect Master of Azure Wood Sect and being scolded by her deceased master.

In short, her mind still had many flaws, and she was not as strong as she imagined.

But no matter what, with her husband's help, she still passed the Heart Demon Tribulation.

Although this seemed a bit like cheating, so what?

As long as she could successfully pass, any means would do.

"Haha, it seems that I had a narrow escape in this Foundation Establishment. I had a benefactor's help."

"Staying in Immortal Mist Sect for Foundation Establishment was the right choice."

"If it weren't for my husband's help, I'm afraid my Foundation Establishment would have been more bad luck than good."

Chu Dieyi was overjoyed.

She felt that she easily passed the Heart Demon Tribulation, and all the Heart Demons on her disappeared. Her Dao Heart was clear, and there was basically no dust left. At this moment, she felt refreshed and unprecedentedly happy.

With the obstruction of the Heart Demons gone, her speed of Foundation Establishment accelerated once again.

To be honest, she was a cultivator of Heavenly Demon Sect, cultivating the demonic technique Heavenly Demon Strategy. This technique had infinite power and rapid progress, making it easy for Heart Demons to arise.

As a result, the Heart Demon Tribulation became even more turbulent and terrifying.

Coupled with her Heavenly Demon Calamity Body, which was the favorite physique of Heart Demons, they swarmed in, trying to devour her soul and take over her body.

So her Heart Demon Tribulation became even more terrifying, almost unstoppable.

Even if she returned to Heavenly Demon Sect, it was highly likely that no one could help her.

But her husband, on the other hand, could miraculously dissolve it.

Clearly, it could only rely on her own Heart Demon Tribulation, but now it could be resolved by others, which was truly unimaginable.

Although she didn't know how it was done, the fact that she passed was beyond doubt.

"Don't waste time, continue with Foundation Establishment."

"The next Heavenly Thunder Tribulation may come soon."

Zhou Sui's divine sense transmitted his voice, reminding them that it was not yet time to celebrate success.

Even if they passed the first two trials, the third one was still very difficult.

A slight mistake could undo all their previous efforts.

"Yes, husband."

Upon hearing this, Chu Dieyi and Lin Yazhu nodded and immediately focused their minds, abandoning all distractions, and entered the state of Foundation Establishment.

Obviously, after passing the Heart Demon Tribulation, both Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi were bursting with confidence. In fact, they had already successfully established their foundations. Now, all that remained was to continue consolidating their Nascent Souls and helping them grow rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, another seven days had passed.

The aura emanating from them is becoming increasingly terrifying, already starting to affect the Celestial Phenomenon for thousands of miles around.

Above the sky, layers of thick black clouds appeared, with thunder flashing deep within the clouds, exuding a destructive aura.

The entire sky was shrouded in dark clouds, emitting an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

Ji Bingyu and the others were also hiding near Xianxia Peak, watching this scene with wide eyes, all of them shocked.

"So this is the Heavenly Tribulation that Nascent Soul cultivators face?"

"It's really too terrifying."

Mu Ziyan widened her eyes, able to sense the tribulation thunder in the sky, containing a destructive power.

Just one strike would be enough to annihilate her.

It was simply something that a Foundation Building cultivator like her couldn't withstand.

Although she had known before that ascending to Nascent Soul required crossing the tribulation thunder, she didn't expect the tribulation to be so terrifying.

This made her feel frightened.

"It is indeed quite terrifying."

"This is the first level of tribulation thunder that Nascent Soul cultivators face."

"It is said that the first level of tribulation thunder will bring down eighty-one tribulation thunders, each one extremely terrifying in power."

"If one can't withstand it, they will die and be completely destroyed."

"If it's a cultivator burdened with karmic debts, they might face the second level of tribulation thunder."

"At that time, one hundred and sixty-two tribulation thunders will strike down, almost certain death."

Shen Biqian also looked curiously at the dark clouds in the sky.

For her, this could be considered an early rehearsal.

After all, in the not too distant future, she would also attempt to transcend the tribulation.

Seeing this scene now, she could also accumulate some experience for the future.

"If that's the case, aren't those Rogue Cultivators doomed?"

"Wait, it seems that Sister Chu is also a demonic cultivator, could she also be facing the second level of tribulation thunder?"

Xia Jingyan couldn't help but worry about this.

"Don't worry, although Sister Chu is a cultivator of the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"But in fact, she doesn't have much karmic debt on her."

"So she is facing the first level of tribulation thunder."

"However, it's really strange that Sister Chu, as a cultivator of the Heavenly Demon Sect, has so little karmic debt."

Shen Biqian blinked her beautiful eyes.

She had originally thought that Chu Dieyi, as a cultivator of the Heavenly Demon Sect, must have a lot of karmic debt on her.

But she didn't expect the other party's karmic debt to be so pitifully small.

"This is quite normal."

"Those demonic cultivators burdened with karmic debts are essentially indiscriminate killers."

"Killing cultivators does not increase karmic debts; only slaughtering mortals does."

"In the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, cultivators who have embarked on the path of cultivation are no longer protected by the Heavenly Dao."

"Therefore, it doesn't matter how many die; killing cultivators will not increase karmic debts."

"Only the slaughter of mortals will burden one with karmic debts."

"If one kills too many mortals, they will attract heavenly tribulation."

"That's why even demonic cultivators dare not massacre mortals wantonly."

"Those demonic cultivators who indiscriminately slaughter mortals are generally not authentic disciples of the demonic sect."

"Authentic disciples of the demonic sect who have received complete inheritances would not commit such acts that destroy the path."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

Having obtained three secret manuals, he naturally knew many taboos and knowledge of the cultivation world.

It can be said that he is now extremely knowledgeable and aware of many secrets.

For the Heavenly Dao, mortals are the true foundation.

Cultivators are nothing more than a group of thieves.

They steal the essence of heaven and earth to replenish themselves.

Therefore, the Heavenly Dao actually delights in the mutual slaughter among cultivators and does not increase karmic debts at all.

At this moment, within the Three Stars Island Group.

Many cultivators staying in Xianxia City also felt that the sky seemed somewhat oppressive. They saw the dense dark clouds covering thousands of miles, accompanied by lightning.

Such a celestial phenomenon was extremely astonishing.

However, because Zhou Sui activated a Rank Four formation, forming a double barrier that covered several hundred miles around the Immortal Mist Peak of the Immortal Mist Sect, the aura of the heavenly tribulation did not leak out.

Therefore, many cultivators did not perceive anything unusual.

"It's really strange. The weather in the Three Stars Island Group has been unusual lately. Could someone be transcending their heavenly tribulation here?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Who would transcend their heavenly tribulation here? There's no Rank Four spiritual vein here."

"You're right. The weather in the Three Stars Island Group itself is abnormal, often experiencing violent storms. It's probably just another storm. There's nothing strange about it."

"In that case, it seems that we can't go out to sea during this period. If we encounter a storm, we won't even know how we'll die."

"But this situation really seems like the heavenly tribulation described in legends. The atmosphere is too oppressive."

"Look at you, have you ever seen the heavenly tribulation of Nascent Soul promotion?"

"No, I haven't. It's not easy to witness the heavenly tribulation of Nascent Soul. There are not many Gold Core cultivators in the entire Canglan Sea Region who can transcend the thunder tribulation. I don't have such great fortune. I've only read similar descriptions in the classics."

"If someone really transcends their tribulation, it would be great. That would mean that a Nascent Soul ancestor will be born in Xianxia City, and the Three Stars Island Group will likely become the center. We would benefit from that."

"Don't daydream. The Three Stars Island Group was established by three external Gold Core sects. They are currently fighting against the Hai Clan cultivators on Julu Island. The person with the most hope of forming their Core is not here. How could someone trigger the Core Formation Celestial Phenomenon?"

"The weather in the Three Stars Island Group has been abnormal recently, and there may be a storm coming. Everyone should be careful and avoid going out to sea during this period to avoid maritime disasters."

Many cultivators were discussing among themselves.

Although they found this unusual weather strange, no one thought it was caused by a heavenly calamity.

After all, there was a formation concealing it, so they couldn't perceive anything abnormal.

Most importantly, this kind of Nascent Soul Tribulation was extremely rare, and no one had ever seen it before.

Naturally, they had no concept of it.

Even if a few people felt doubtful, without evidence, it was only half-believed.

...

At this moment, above Xianxia Peak, the clouds had become thicker.

Two huge tribulation clouds appeared in the sky, one above Lin Yazhu and the other above Chu Dieyi.

At this moment, they had also walked out of the Cave Mansion and arrived at the mountaintops of the two peaks.

Now it was the final test.

If they passed this test, they would truly become Nascent Soul cultivators.

Boom~~

In an instant, purple thunderbolts descended from the sky, almost simultaneously striking Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi.

Both of them were basically transcending the tribulation at the same time.

"Golden Thunder Bamboo."

At this moment, Lin Yazhu immediately took out her High Grade Law Treasure, the Golden Thunder Bamboo, from her body. It was a powerful Law Treasure for resisting tribulations. The founder of Azure Wood Sect had wanted to refine the Golden Thunder Bamboo to resist tribulations and advance to Nascent Soul.

Unfortunately, she couldn't resolve the side effects brought by the Qingmu Longsheng Technique.

Before she could advance to Nascent Soul, she turned into a big tree and died.

Dong!

A terrifying thunderous force also erupted from the Golden Thunder Bamboo, colliding with the tribulation thunder, instantly causing a violent explosion, like a needle against a stalk of wheat.

She instantly resisted the first tribulation thunder.

"Demonic Cloud Fan."

Chu Dieyi also didn't show any weakness and immediately took out a Middle Grade Spiritual Treasure, the Demonic Cloud Fan, from her body. It was her master, the Heavenly Demon Sect's sect master, who gave her this life-bound Spiritual Treasure.

The so-called Spiritual Treasure was a more powerful treasure than a Law Treasure.

Only Nascent Soul cultivators could use it freely.

This fan was engraved with dense and unfathomable runes.

Only to see her gently wave this Middle Grade Spiritual Treasure.

Boom~~

A mass of demonic clouds instantly erupted, sweeping across the world, striking towards the tribulation thunder.

Suddenly, the tribulation thunder was instantly devoured by the demonic clouds, disappearing without a trace.

This also demonstrated the power of a Middle Grade Spiritual Treasure.

After all, even among the many Nascent Soul cultivators, not everyone could possess a Spiritual Treasure.

Law Treasure is the standard equipment for Nascent Soul cultivators. However, after resisting the first tribulation thunder, Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi showed no signs of joy. Instead, their faces were extremely solemn, feeling a heavy pressure.

Because the first tribulation thunder consists of a total of eighty-one tribulation thunders, each one stronger than the previous.

They must withstand all eighty-one tribulation thunders in order to pass this calamity.

Now, it's only the first tribulation thunder, and it's already so terrifying.

I don't know if they can withstand the remaining eighty-one tribulation thunders.

In history, there have been cultivators who perished under the tribulation thunder. Unable to withstand the power of eighty-one tribulation thunders, their mana was depleted, and they were struck to death by a tribulation thunder, disappearing without a trace.

Boom!

Above the sky, the tribulation clouds became even more violent, forming a massive vortex of heavenly tribulation.

From a distance, it looked like an eye of heavenly tribulation, with countless tribulation thunders brewing deep within the tribulation clouds.

They completely locked onto the aura of Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi.

No matter where they hide, it's useless.

"Don't worry, I have a treasure on me."

"It's called the Lightning Avoidance Stick."

"It can help weaken the power of the tribulation thunder for you."

"All you need to do next is to transcend the tribulation with peace of mind."

At this moment, Zhou Sui transmitted his divine sense, reassuring Lin Yazhu and Chu Dieyi.

With a wave of his big hand, he immediately threw out a stick from his body, and a lightning pattern appeared on the stick.

This lightning pattern was exactly the manifestation of the Calamity Thunder Gu.

In order to prevent others from knowing the true form of the Calamity Thunder Gu, he disguised it as a treasure.

This way, the secret of the Calamity Thunder Gu would not be revealed.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the stick flew in mid-air, emitting endless lightning radiance, with purple light flickering, seemingly transforming into lightning dragons.

Only to see that while the purple light was flickering, the Calamity Thunder Gu seemed to transform into a lightning dragon and fiercely bit down on the tribulation thunder falling from the sky.

With a smack, this tribulation thunder instantly lost half of its power.

What?!

At this moment, Lin Yazhu joyfully discovered that her husband's treasure was indeed incredible. It could weaken the power of ordinary tribulation thunders, which was truly unimaginable.

And with this, her success rate in transcending the tribulation would exceed ninety percent.

Of course, after helping Lin Yazhu, the Calamity Thunder Gu also flashed its figure and went to help Chu Dieyi, weakening the power of the tribulation thunder.

Suddenly, it was like it had eaten a great tonic, with a huge power of tribulation thunder surging in its body, making crackling sounds, and its aura increased exponentially.

For it, these tribulation thunders were simply the most delicious food in the world.
