Chapter 151 150. Thunder Tribulation
in the hall.

The three elders looked at Xu Qing in front of the altar with worry and expectation.

The thirty-six white light balls surrounding his body emitted circles of blazing light, and the majestic aura emanating from them even made them change color.

The portraits of the ancestors hanging on both sides of the altar have been shaking continuously since not long after the sutras and oracles were delivered from the sky. It is obvious that the ancestors have already taken action to protect the disciples who are receiving the oracles.

“I don’t know what kind of test the Heaven has bestowed upon Junior Brother. Even the ancestors of all generations have tried this, but he still can’t pass it easily.”

Elder Jingyuan's expression became more solemn when he saw that Xu Qing had not woken up yet.

"This is a good thing." Although Taoist Qingning was also worried, he still smiled and said, "The harder the test, the greater the opportunity. This is an eternal and irrefutable truth.

"Although there is no difference in the quality of the thirty-six sutras, the blessings and powers obtained by the sutras are different, and the corresponding number of natal magic talismans will also be different."

"If you are favored by the Heavenly Dao, you will even be granted the Great Dao True Text."

Elder Jingyan nodded slightly: "That's exactly the truth."

The conversation between the three elders was not concealed, so the eight disciples nearby could hear it clearly, and their expressions changed slightly.

It turns out that there is such a saying about ordination.

They still thought that the only difference was the number of scriptures that were sent down.

In fact, the thirty-six sutras are divided into three levels according to the number they appear, with the number twelve as the dividing line: twelve, twenty-four, and thirty-six.

With each threshold crossed, the blessing and power of the sutra will increase, and the number of natal talismans in the sutra will also increase.

For example, the first-level "Nine Heavenly Soldiers Talisman",
If the number of sutras available for selection when the ordination practitioner is bestowing ordination is less than twelve, the ordination will only contain three kinds of natal talismans, namely, the treasure appraisal talisman, the weapon condensing talisman, and the helmet character.

If the number is above twelve, it contains six kinds of natal magic talismans. In addition to the three types mentioned above, there are also the King of Might's Sword Talisman, the Five Ding Hercules Talisman, and the Hundred Forging and Thousand Refining Talisman.

The reason why Elder Jingyan did not tell other disciples about this was because most of the disciples were at the "Twelve" level.
Only in very rare cases will the number of scriptures and talismans appearing during the ordination ceremony be more than twelve.

As for the level of "thirty-six", since Elder Jingyan took over the responsibility of managing the sect altar and presided over all ceremonies in the temple,

The first time we met was today.

According to records, this level appears very rarely. Looking back at history, the most recent occurrence was when the head master bestowed the ordination certificate.

While the three elders were talking, one of the white light balls surrounding Xu Qing suddenly exploded, turning into streams of light and merging into another light ball.

"What's going on?" Elder Jingyuan frowned.

In the past, when a person was granted the ordination certificate, it was always after he passed the test of heaven, and only then would the light balls symbolizing the heavenly ordination certificates begin to change.

"I don't know." Elder Jingyan shook his head, "But judging from the situation, it should be a good thing."

Just as he finished speaking, another white light ball exploded with a bang, and that light ball, which had absorbed the energy emitted by the other two broken light balls, rose higher and higher.

"Do we need to ask for help from the sect again?" Taoist Qingning asked.

"Uncle-master, let's wait and see what happens." Elder Jing Yan hesitated a little, but decided to watch for a while.

The sect altar cannot be opened lightly. Every time the power of the sect altar is borrowed, it takes a lot of time to restore it to perfection. Therefore, the formal ordination ceremony in the temple is only held once every few years.

Next,
Under the gazes of the crowd, the white light balls surrounding Xu Qing exploded one by one, turning into streams of light and merging into that special light ball.

The aura emitted by that special ball of light became increasingly strong, and was vaguely connected to Xu Qing.

Elder Jingyan's eyes lit up slightly: "It seems that Junior Brother will pass this test safely."

Taoist Qingning and Elder Jingyuan smiled when they saw this.

Just when everyone thought that the matter was a foregone conclusion, something strange suddenly happened!

When the thirty-five white light balls shattered and the last remaining light ball turned into a stream of light and flew into Xu Qing's brow,
stab-

The portraits of the ancestors hanging on both sides of the altar suddenly made a tearing sound, and one portrait after another began to crack.

"What's going on?" The three elders' faces changed drastically. "Why are the portraits of the ancestors..."

A huge doubt has just arisen.
The three elders suddenly raised their heads at the same time, their eyes looking through the beams of the hall towards the sky with horror on their faces.

"Heavenly tribulation?!"

this.
The three elders looked at each other in shock.

What kind of great fortune did Junior Brother Jingdu have that could cause a heavenly calamity to come? !

“Quickly call for the power of the sect altar!” Taoist Qingning was the first to react. He realized that the altar in front of him was on the verge of collapse under the power of the heavenly calamity.

The altar kept shaking, and there were clicking sounds.

If the altar collapses, there is no need to wait for the heavenly calamity to strike, and the ordination ceremony will be declared over.

The harm caused to the disciples by interrupting the ordination ceremony due to external forces is different from the harm caused by them interrupting the ceremony on their own initiative.

The former can be life-threatening, while the latter can only be treated by recuperation for a period of time.

After receiving the reminder, Elder Jingyan quickly made some hand gestures and bowed to the location of the sect altar from afar. A force far exceeding the previous two times was bestowed on the altar.

The golden lamps, incense candles, and copper censers on both sides of the altar suddenly exploded into flames the size of washbasins. At the same time, all kinds of talismans appeared in the hall to offset the power of the falling heavenly calamity.

The portraits of the ancestors stopped tearing. The other eight disciples who were given the ordination seemed to have just walked through the gates of hell. The power of the heavenly tribulation was only a trace of breath.
This made the eight disciples feel the great fear of life and death.

Now these eight disciples were numb, and all the jealousy and envy they had towards Xu Qing disappeared.

It turns out that people can only take what they are capable of. Even the best things need a life to get them!

"The scope of the heavenly tribulation only covers this hall, and it does not appear in this world, but in that heavenly space!"

Elder Jingyuan had countless runes flowing in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "If we were not in the hall, we would not be able to feel the breath of this heavenly tribulation."

"The test of Junior Brother Jingdu by Heaven has not yet ended!" Taoist Qingning looked extremely solemn.

"The Heavenly Tribulation does not allow any external forces to interfere. Can Junior Brother Jingdu survive the Heavenly Tribulation alone?" Elder Jingyan's eyes flashed with a variety of chaotic emotions. "Do we need to stop the ordination ceremony?"

Taoist Qingning and Elder Jingyuan did not respond rashly.

The heavenly calamity has already occurred, and they cannot be sure whether interrupting the ceremony will prevent the calamity from happening.

If the heavenly tribulation had not disappeared due to the interruption of the ordination ceremony, then Junior Brother Jingdu would not only have to face the heavenly tribulation, but also have to endure the backlash of the interruption of the ceremony.

This is undoubtedly pushing him into a desperate situation!
Taoist Qingning took a deep breath and said, "Let's see the situation first. If Junior Brother Jingdu's Qi shows signs of weakening, then we will immediately interrupt the ceremony."

After saying this, Taoist Qingning took out three incense sticks, lit them with Yuan Qi, and inserted them into the copper stove in the center of the altar.

"Uncle-master, you..." Two elders with the character "Jing" opened their mouths to speak.

Taoist Qingning waved his hand and said, "I have lived long enough, but such a good seedling should not be killed here in confusion."

The meanings manifested by the thirty-five scriptures were resolved one by one by Xu Qing, the Six Ding and Six Jia gods, and the ancestors of all generations.

Because every time a mind image is defeated,
The more powerful the sutras in your body are,

So as the game progressed, it became easier and easier.

After the last thirty-fifth sutra and talisman was defeated, Xu Qing bowed respectfully to the silhouettes of the ancestors around him.

Thank you to all the masters for their help.

As a result, just as he bent down, the silhouettes of the ancestors of all generations suddenly exploded one by one.

Xu Qing looked at the silhouettes of the ancestors of past generations exploding with a dazed look on his face. His brain seemed to be stuck and he could hardly get it right.

Is this the way the ancestors of all generations left the stage?

Or did this bow of mine destroy the spiritual energy that the ancestors had bestowed upon me?

The latter is unlikely.

Even if his fate is special and he has a guardian deity in his body, which of the ancestors whose portraits can be painted and hung on the altar is not a person of extraordinary talent and a very good fate?

There was no way they could be unbearable because of his bow.

Xu Qing's face suddenly changed, realizing that this was not his problem!
He looked up at the "sky" -

There, a huge pool of thunder was rapidly forming, like real thunder plasma surging in layers, countless electric snakes were wandering in the clouds, and balls of thunder and fire like wheels were flying up and down.

Rumble.
Continuous thunders continued to explode, and the huge sound seemed to ring in Xu Qing's ears.

Thunder disaster?

Xu Qing's pupils shrank rapidly into a point.

The boundless murderous aura pouring down from above made his scalp tingle, his heart tremble with fear, and a huge fear bombarded his mind.

Why did the thunder tribulation appear? Could it be that the test of heaven has not yet ended?
This sudden change caught Xu Qing off guard, and he couldn't help but ask himself -

Why was the test for his ordination so difficult?
Even if all thirty-six sutras were sent down, there shouldn't be a test of this degree. After all, this is only the first time the sutras are bestowed!

And in the dark,

Xu Qing had a feeling that the thunder tribulation above his head was aimed at something, and now this thing was bound to him.

That's why the thunder tribulation targeted him.

But what on his body could attract the thunder tribulation? It couldn't be the sutra he chose, could it be the Six Dings and Six Jias? !
Xu Qing was in a state of confusion, with thoughts racing through his mind like lightning, thousands of thoughts in an instant, but he immediately extinguished all these thoughts and quickly calmed down.

At this point, it is not the time to think about the reasons. He needs to focus all his attention on dealing with the thunder tribulation in front of him.

The lightning in the "sky" became more and more intense.

Finally, it seemed as if the dark clouds could no longer hold the moisture, and raindrops began to fall with a "plop".

The majestic thunder turned into a beam of fierce lightning and fell towards Xu Qing.

The moment the lightning struck,
The whole void is trembling,

Xu Qing's attention was completely occupied by this ray of lightning.

The Jiazi God and Dingchou God beside him flew up first, rushing towards the beam of lightning head-on, hitting it with the Mountain-Splitting Axe and the Ruyi Trident.

Then comes Jiaxu, Dinghai, Jiashen, Dingyou, Jiawu, Dingwei.
The twelve guardian gods faced the falling thunder together!
