Chapter 178 The Hardest Trial
There were ripples in the sea of boundary. Those were the symbols of the Great Dao, carrying a black light and a bloody color, spreading out and sweeping across the sea of boundary.
It was a storm!
The dark hurricane roared past, destroying everything.
After listening to the story told by the Three-Eyed Quasi-King, Liu Shen and Feng Xi already had a general understanding.
This three-eyed quasi-king left the primitive ancient world and came to the sea of boundaries before the first war broke out between the foreign land and the primitive ancient world. Otherwise, relying on the strength of this clan, he would definitely be famous for all eternity.
But it was also because of this that the three-eyed quasi-king escaped disaster, otherwise, the chances of him dying in the great battle at the end of the Ancient Immortal Era would have been very high.
After understanding the situation clearly, Feng Xi took out a pool of thunder and poured the thunder liquid inside on the three-eyed quasi-king.
As destructive as the thunder tribulation is, the vitality of the thunder tribulation liquid is as powerful as it is heaven-defying.
Just as it flowed through the body of the three-eyed quasi-king, a powerful vitality burst out, nourishing and repairing the body of the three-eyed quasi-king.
Now all the resources on Feng Xi have been used up, but the Thunder Tribulation Liquid is inexhaustible, because even if it is used up, the Thunder Pool will continue to produce new Thunder Tribulation Liquid.
It's a pity that the level of his thunder pool is still relatively low, and the highest is only at the realm of True Immortal. It may be useful for a quasi-king, but the effect is definitely not as good as for a True Immortal.
But he is not in a hurry now. He needs to practice first. As for forging a super thunder pool, it will not be too late to refine it after he practices the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art to the ninth revolution.
After all, with his current strength, it is still unrealistic to refine a super-immortal weapon. It is possible, but the time will be unimaginably long.
Moreover, these thunder pools were created by the good fortune of heaven and earth, and it is not so easy to integrate them into one.
"Boom!"
The body of the three-eyed quasi-king was glowing, and the golden lightning fluid contained enormous energy, which was now quickly repairing his injuries.
Not long after, the three-eyed quasi-king had escaped from the near-death state. Although he had not recovered, at least his life was safe.
"Is this the Thunder Tribulation Liquid? Which famous Thunder Emperor are you?" the three-eyed quasi-king asked curiously.
At the beginning of the Immortal Ancient Era, on the eve of the three-eyed quasi-king leaving the primitive ancient world, a peerless genius appeared out of nowhere.
All the kings were alarmed and predicted directly that he was destined to become a king and a patriarch in the future!
This is of such great value that only after breaking through to the Quasi-King level, the Three-Eyed Quasi-King will know how difficult it is to become an Immortal King.
Even though he had now broken through to the Quasi-King level and was only one step away from becoming an Immortal King, he was not confident that he could take this step. Perhaps he would need some favor from heaven and earth to have any chance of making it happen.
"I am not the Thunder Emperor. You left the primitive ancient world too early and you don't understand many things." Feng Xi shook his head, then thought about it and directly sent out a spiritual consciousness.
Looking at this divine consciousness and then at the ancestral spirit, the three-eyed quasi-king did not resist, but allowed the divine consciousness to enter his soul.
It is a very dangerous thing to rashly allow other forces to enter the soul, but Feng Xi is with the ancestral spirit, so the Three-Eyed Quasi-King can only trust it.
There was nothing he could do if he didn't believe it. His current condition was too bad and he couldn't resist at all.
What's more, in front of an Immortal King, he could only obey even if he was in his prime.
Moreover, deep down, he didn't believe that a powerful being like the ancestral spirit would take action against him.
After his consciousness entered the soul of the Three-Eyed Quasi-King, he understood everything in just a moment.
“How is this possible!” the three-eyed quasi-king exclaimed. He didn’t understand why such a powerful primitive ancient world would collapse in such a short time.
It is true that the power of the primitive ancient world is not as good as that of foreign lands, but it also has more than 20 immortal kings. Among them, the Immortal King Wuzhong, the Immortal King Samsara, the Ancestral Spirit, and the True Dragon are the strongest among the immortal kings.
If the foreign land really had to fight head-on with such a lineup, it would be impossible for it to escape unscathed and it might even suffer serious damage.
But what he saw in his memory was that the Immortal Kings of the primitive ancient world were defeated one by one. Even the True Dragon, the Immortal King of Samsara, and the Immortal King of Eternity were besieged and killed.
Such a lineup was defeated so easily that the three-eyed quasi-king didn't know what to say.
He has no qualifications to criticize the Immortal Kings for being disunited. Even if most of those Immortal Kings have passed away, it is not something he can say.
The ancestor spirit is right beside us now, and he is also one of the immortal kings.
However, his fighting power shocked the three-eyed quasi-king. He rushed into the foreign land alone, went in and out seven times, and killed the immortal king of the foreign land without leaving a single piece of armor.
"Okay, just rest and recover. We will also be practicing in the Sea of Realm for a while."
Feng Xi said something to comfort him, then sat down cross-legged with Liu Shen and began his own practice.
In this boundary sea, a reef is extremely rare. Many immortal kings may not be able to find a reef when crossing the boundary sea.
The three-eyed quasi-king, who was frightened by this experience, did not want to stay in this sea anymore and prepared to leave.
When he was a true immortal in the past, even if he was at the edge, the three-eyed quasi-king could not see the dam, because the world here was turned upside down.
But after breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal King level, a dam appeared in front of the Three-Eyed Quasi-King. As long as he walked along the dam, it wouldn't take long for him to leave the Sea Boundary.
However, before Sanyan left the Sea Boundary, Feng Xi gave him a task, asking him to go to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, to the Imperial City to take his place, and when the foreign land attacked the borderland, send those who were labeled by him to the Imperial Pass.
Sanyan readily agreed to this. He could feel that Feng Xi was extraordinary. Besides, the ancestral spirit did not object, so he would just follow his orders.
The sea of boundary is full of terrifying storms of laws. Here, the power of time is very strong. Occasionally, a ray of it passes through the body, which lasts for thousands or even millions of years.
Here, the realm of True Immortality is not a big deal, because there is no need to worry about lifespan, but if a supreme being enters and is lucky enough not to die, he will probably suffer a lot.
It is estimated that it won’t be long before a supreme being, even if not killed by the laws in the sea of boundaries, will be washed away by the torrent of time and his life will be drained.
However, this is nothing to Feng Xi. Although his current realm is not the immortal realm, he has practiced the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art and his life level has undergone seven transformations. It is difficult for the years to leave any mark on him.
"boom!"
Feng Xi just raised one hand, and an ancient thunder pool appeared in his hand, with a diameter of three feet and a very ancient shape.
It is very simple. If it weren't for the patterns on it that contain the breath of the Tao, some people might really think it is just a small pond.
Feng Xi picked up the Thunder Pool, opened his mouth, raised his head and swallowed all the Thunder Tribulation Liquid into his stomach. Suddenly, a great energy surged in his body, and the rich vitality even made his life span, which had been corroded by the years in the Sea of Boundary, reach its peak.
The substance Thunder Tribulation Liquid is definitely one of the most precious substances in the world. It evolves life at the end of destruction, and this is also a perception that can be carried through the path of cultivation.
Every realm can gain different insights from this sentence, and the Thunder Tribulation Liquid is almost the most powerful evidence of this perception.
After swallowing the Thunder Tribulation Liquid, Feng Xi began to practice the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art. Because he used the Thunder Tribulation Liquid to practice, the pain that seemed to tear his body apart during the previous practice was alleviated a little.
The blazing lightning surrounded Feng Xi, a fragrance flowed from his body, and his blood gushed out, as if it had turned into a supreme precious medicine.
With the blessing of the Thunder Tribulation Liquid, Feng Xi's cultivation speed was incredibly fast, and his cultivation was very extravagant. Once the Thunder Tribulation Liquid in his body was almost consumed, he would immediately swallow another pool of it.
It's terrifying. Even if other people were lucky enough to get a rare item like Thunder Tribulation Liquid, they would take it drop by drop. But Feng Xi just drank the whole pool.
He did have the conditions. He now had more than five thousand thunder pools on his body. The thunder liquid was the most abundant thing he had on him, so he didn't have to worry about running out.
After swimming in pool after pool, his Nine Revolutions Heavenly Skill made rapid progress, and soon, he began to try to reach the eighth revolution.
The speed was too fast, but if you look at how much Thunder Tribulation Fluid he consumed, it wouldn't be surprising if you knew he used nearly five hundred pools.
Even the Thunder Emperor cannot afford such extravagant consumption, because the Thunder Pool is indeed continuously producing Thunder Fluid, but that takes time.
This is also the reason why Feng Xi’s cultivation speed is so fast.
"boom!"
A terrifying power erupted, and Feng Xi exuded infinite light. He looked tall and heroic with loose black hair. Even the waves in the boundary sea dimmed. He seemed to be the only one in this area.
The fluctuations were so violent that even in the boundary sea, they spread for a distance. If there were any living creatures nearby, Feng Xi's actions would be like a lighthouse, guiding those living creatures.
Indeed, there is, because there really is an immortal in this area, drifting in the sea of boundaries on a treasure raft.
However, when he noticed the blazing rain of light, his first reaction was to run away. He was very self-aware and knew that anyone who could cause such a commotion in the sea of boundary must be an extremely terrifying existence.
Sometimes a lighthouse not only illuminates the road, but may also be the end of life. He is not a moth, so he does not choose to pursue the light.
Only those at the level of Immortal King are qualified to see such a situation and go to investigate. Those below the level of Immortal King will almost always run as far away as possible when encountering such a situation.
The God of Willow stood in the distance, watching this scene quietly. Thousands of orders intertwined together, evolving into a terrifying Taoist fire.
This flame is extremely terrifying. It is constantly burning Feng Xi's body, soul and magic power, and is undergoing rapid transformation.
"The first time was an endless hurricane, and the second time was a raging fire that burned the heavens. Both acted on his body, soul, and magic power at the same time, making him experience the most brutal test."
The Wheel of Samsara said in a deep voice that this kind of heavenly skill really amazed it. If it laid a foundation with this, the realm of Immortal King that was out of reach for ordinary people would no longer be so difficult for Feng Xi to reach.
This is only the eighth transformation, but it makes Feng Xi no weaker than a quasi-immortal king in all aspects. So what about the ninth transformation? How terrifying will it be by then?
Can he break through to the Immortal King? After pondering for a while, the Wheel of Samsara gave up the idea. The barrier of the Immortal King was too strong and it was not so easy to cross.
"Boom!"
There was a deafening roar that shook the heaven and earth. Near the reef, the waters of the Boundary Sea began to ripple. Very subtle, but it was terrifying enough.
This is not the heavens, this is the sea of boundaries that even the Immortal Kings shudder at. Every wave is an endless world, and if a wave is created here, countless worlds will be created in an instant.
The surging of the boundary sea inevitably caused the laws to riot, raising a breeze that was enough to strangle the sea breeze at the peak of True Immortal.
The sea is vast, with ups and downs.
The waves rolled, and waves surged up and then broke in the void, forming water vapor from the boundary water, corroding the bodies and souls of living beings.
But at this moment, the waves could not get close to the reefs, except for the Immortal King Liu Shen and the terrifying Dao Fire.
That fire was the condensation of the laws in the sea boundary, and the sea breeze could not invade this reef at all.
Feng Xi was sitting cross-legged in the Taoist fire. At this moment, thunder and fire were intertwined on his body, like a god descending to the world!
The flames were burning him, while the thunder liquid was repairing him. Back and forth, his foundation was skyrocketing, his body's potential was completely released, and his immunity to magic power was also improving by leaps and bounds.
And this time the process is very long, much longer than the first hurricane.
The sound of "chi chi" continued to be heard. It was the sound of his skin and flesh being torn apart. His blood was being burned, and his flesh and bones were being ignited.
Feng Xi spent several days to endure this catastrophe. The scene was extremely horrifying and terrifying.
During this time, he kept grabbing the thunder pool and swallowing the whole pool in one gulp, which was extremely luxurious.
Only in this way can he survive, otherwise even he will be completely burned to ashes, there is no doubt about it.
But even so, Feng Xi still felt what it meant to be living a life worse than death. It was a torture, and even at one point he couldn't help but give up.
His current foundation is enough to directly impact the realm of immortals, and he is not a true immortal. As long as he wants, he can directly become a quasi-immortal king.
But in that case, the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art would never be perfected. At most, when he was about to impact the realm of immortals, he might succeed in cultivating the eighth revolution in a sneaky way, but that would be the end of it.
The Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art must be practiced in one go, and can only be cultivated before one becomes an immortal. It can no longer be cultivated after one becomes an immortal.
Feng Xi was unwilling to give up. The power of the Nine Revolutions Heavenly Art was obvious to all. If he lost such an opportunity, he would not even have a chance to make up for it in the future.
"Boom!"
Ten thunder pools appeared around Feng Xi at the same time, and the thunder liquid in them was poured onto him. The rich vitality in them resisted the Dao fire, making him feel a little relieved.
"What a luxury! Fortunately, he has these thunder tribulation liquids, otherwise I'm afraid he will never be able to pass this heavenly barrier." The Wheel of Samsara felt a little thrilling.
Because even if this is the case, it only increases the probability, and I can't say that you will definitely pass.
This is the most cruel way of practicing, all just for the purpose of soaring into the sky, and to overcome this insurmountable chasm in the hellish trials.
