though the size of the tribulation thunder had reduced somewhat, they were still rare spiritual objects that had been refined. A lively and ethereal aura emanated from within, even more extraordinary...Lu Xiaotian's cave abode was a small mountain. Its spiritual energy was moderate. Even with his poor aptitude, he could feel that the speed of absorbing spiritual energy was far greater than before. For a cultivator crossing the tribulation stage, this could increase the recovery speed of法力, and under the condition of abundant spiritual energy, the recovery speed of injuries would also be significantly faster. Moreover, when human cultivators condensed their golden pills, some powerful ones often absorbed a portion of spiritual power from their surroundings.

This Blue Mist City is indeed a perfect place for crossing tribulation and cultivating. It's no wonder so many people come to Blue Mist City.

The small mountain where Lu Xia Tian resided was only a few hundred meters high. From the middle of the mountain to the peak where he stood, there were several caves that had already been cleared out. In Lan Ming City, it was not allowed to privately build caves; they were all pre-existing. Lu Xia Tian’s current location still had fluctuations of lightning energy, clearly indicating that someone had crossed the tribulation before him. It was just unknown whether they succeeded or failed.

Less than a day or two after Lu Xiaitian moved in, cultivators from the mountainside and foothills came swarming to his door. On the mountainside was a stout woman with a rather masculine air, who called herself Zhou Xiaocui. At the foot of the mountain was a middle-aged man with a slight smell of alcohol and a wine gourd hanging at his waist, Mo Wentian.

They have all reached the ninth level of Qi Condensation, and their strength has not improved much. The day of transcending tribulation is approaching, so there is no need to spend too much time on cultivation. Instead, it is more important to exchange insights with fellow cultivators, learn about rumors about transcending tribulation, or find better ways to resist the lightning tribulation.

As for the two people's ascension, Lu Xia Tian wasn't averse to it. From their mouths, Lu Xia Tian also learned about several nearby spiritual mountains or spiritual valleys where cultivators were crossing tribulations. There was the joy of proving the Golden Core, as well as the sadness and regret of death during the tribulation.

"The three waves of tribulation thunder were each stronger than the last. Ordinary cultivators who could barely survive the first one or two waves would be considered extremely fortunate. Even in a place like Blue Profound City, where spiritual energy was abundant, only about one in every ten cultivators could achieve the Golden Core stage through cultivation. Now that we can still drink and have fun together, who knows if we'll ever have another chance to meet again."

Do not ask why the Tianhu gourd is never left hand. After drinking a few cups of wine, he likes to say some drunken words. However, what he says is also very reasonable. Those who can cultivate and live steadily through various adventures until the ninth layer of foundation building are only a small number, and those who successfully cross the threshold from the ninth layer of foundation building to the Golden Core stage are even rarer. Even in places like Lanming City where spiritual energy is abundant, the odds are not too high.

But I hope I can survive the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation. Lu Xia Tian has always been a strong-willed person. After breaking through the Five Elements Array and obtaining the opportunity to form a golden core, he now has a chance to achieve this. However, at this moment, he doesn't have much confidence in his heart. After all, the danger of simultaneously refining five golden cores is not something that should be spoken lightly to outsiders.

Mo Wen and Zhou Xiaocui left one after another. Lu Xiaottian set up formations around his cave dwelling and continued to cultivate his Five Element Formation. Five top-grade spirit stones melted in his palm, transforming into five mottled strands of spiritual energy, intertwining with each other. Sometimes they formed bundles, sometimes spheres.

Thus, after the five top-grade spirit stones' spiritual energy could transform into each other, it could last for several days without dissipating. Lu Xia Tian added another five top-grade spirit stones, and the spiritual energy ball in front of him grew larger once again.

This repeated itself, one day, Lu Xia Tian felt his spirit beast bag move. He originally thought it was the unreliable little fire raven, after all, there were high-level cultivators everywhere around him. Lu Xia Tian didn't let the little fire raven run around to avoid being casually destroyed by some cultivator,

As a condition for not running around, Xiaohuo'ya had to take many high-level Beast Spirit Pills every period of time, or else it wouldn't work. Lu Xiaoteng could only smile wryly and accept it.

However, this time it wasn't the little firebird causing trouble, but the spirit beast pouch belonging to the boundary-breaking worm.

Lu Xia Tian's mind moved, and with a thought he opened his storage pouch using a secondary spirit body. As for the spiritual energy orb, it was still operating. With his current five spirit bodies, he could easily operate the spiritual energy orb while doing other things.

"Chirp!" A chubby black little worm, round like a silkworm, opened its mouth wide as if yawning, revealing rows of sharp, tiny teeth.

“Finally, he woke up.” It felt absurd to Lu Xiaotian that he had encountered several spirit beasts, each one a top-tier specimen. Only Di Kun was relatively normal; his strength was immense, especially after breaking through to the seventh rank, no longer inferior to him. As for Xiaohuo Ya and Pojie Chong, although their combat power was nearly nonexistent, they played a crucial role at the most critical moments. One shouldn't simply judge a spirit beast by its combat power.

It's just that this broken boundary worm is good at breaking some strange taboos. Since breaking the taboo of the green armor skeleton in the blood-colored forbidden land, it has been sleeping for decades, which is quite rare. Usually, the more bizarre and powerful the taboo that the boundary worm consumes, the longer it takes to digest. Before he was just in the Qi Refining stage, he encountered the green armor skeleton. At that time, the strength of the boundary worm was relatively low, while the green armor skeleton, even now, Lu Xiaoteng has never figured out its true strength. All he knows is that every time he encounters the green armor skeleton, this demon's power increases more than before, and it is even unreasonable. Maybe it's an old monster, but in the blood-colored forbidden land, its strength suffered greatly. Decades ago, it broke free and not even dozens of Jindan cultivators could detect its whereabouts. Its methods are definitely not ordinary.

Perhaps the restriction laid down by that green armored skeleton is extraordinary, surpassing the strength of the Boundary Worm by far. The Boundary Worm swallowed its restriction and has been asleep ever since.

Regardless, being able to wake up is a good thing. Looking at the shape of the boundary insect, it was a circle bigger than before, and its whole body was flashing black light, which should mean its strength has increased, right Lu Xia Tian threw a few beast spirit pills to the boundary insect, and the boundary insect happily rolled the beast spirit pills aside and started munching on them.

Lu Xia Tian continued to use spiritual energy orbs to hone his mastery over the five elements' spiritual power.

Thus, on this mountain peak, Lu Xia Tian spent another year or so. During this time, the stout woman Zhou Xiao Cui and the alcoholic Mo Wen Tian both crossed the tribulation one after another. The rather masculine Zhou Xiao Cui took the lead in crossing the tribulation.

In the previous wave of lightning strikes, Zhou Xiaocui's prepared few magic weapons were damaged by half, the situation was unfavorable. Relying on the rich spiritual energy, Zhou Xiaocui took several pills and tried her best to recover her mana. As for the consumption of magic weapons, there was no way to recover them.

Relying on her formidable magical power and unparalleled swordsmanship, Zhou Xiaocui weathered the second wave of tribulation thunder. According to Mo Wentian's estimation, at this time, the probability of Zhou Xiaocui successfully crossing the tribulation was already quite high. However, the third wave of tribulation thunder came sooner than expected, leaving Zhou Xiaocui caught off guard. She could only grit her teeth and persevere. When she finally endured the last two tribulation thunders, as the tribulation clouds above her were about to dissipate, Zhou Xiaocui had reached the point where her lamp oil was exhausted. Ultimately, due to depletion of her magical power, she was struck by the two tribulation thunders, obliterating both her form and spirit.ed it. In an instant, he felt a warm current flowing through his body, as if it could resonate with Lu Xia Tian's instincts.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!At this ti...
