Chapter 725 - 335: Ascension to Immortality (Part 3)
He flew swiftly, concealing his own aura. Not long after, he landed in a forest of red maples. With the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, he sensed the surroundings for hundreds of thousands of miles and found no one, considering it a relatively remote place.According to his prediction, if someone is indeed hunting in secret, they would be targeting places with more people, so this place would be relatively safe.
Having created a place for seclusion in the red maple forest, his physique quietly transformed, no longer appearing old and hunched, but regained its true form.
He still looked like a young man, the chiseling of time having left no marks on his face; he remained spirited and full of life.
He was waiting.
Waiting for others to collectively begin their breakthroughs, at which time he would have enough cover.
He continuously circulated his Immortal Skill, his aura becoming increasingly abundant.
It had only been a few days!
Boom!
In this small world, the power of heaven and earth had already been stirred. Clouds rolled in by the tens of thousands, from a certain direction erupted a terrifying Celestial Tribulation of the Immortal Dao. The thunder tribulation was brilliant in multicolor, its might incredibly astonishing, shaking the entire small world.
The first person aspiring to become an immortal, commenced Crossing the Tribulation.
Like a string of firecrackers igniting the first one, after which the second, third...
One Thunder Tribulation after another exploded directly.
Rumble!
At this moment, this small world seemed to transform into a boundless realm of thunder, undulating, with auspicious clouds patching in, heaven’s thunders interspersed and overlapped, striking down.
Soon, even Profound Immortal level thunder surged downward, creating an even larger commotion.
On this day, Li An finally retrieved an item from his Immortal Coffin－－
It was the Hongmeng Immortal Light obtained from the Spirit Realm!
This was the key item for him to prove his immortality.
His condition reached its peak, along with the operation of the Immortal Skill, boundless power surged out from the Dantian, his Spirit Liquid Pool boiled directly, and the Golden Core emitted tens of thousands of golden lights, the Primordial Spirit inhaled and exhaled the creation of Yin and Yang. The surrounding Great Dao aura suddenly moved.
Li An swallowed the Hongmeng Immortal Light directly!
After countless years of waiting, the Hongmeng Immortal Light entering the body was refined and absorbed by the Immortal Skill, transforming into surging power that condensed and rushed within the body, at last, vaguely forming layers of Immortal Light, seemingly about to condense a bloom of immortal flower in his Spirit Platform!
On the verge of becoming an immortal.
Snap－－
A bolt of heaven’s thunder exploded from the sky and landed heavily.
This thunder was like the claw of a demonic beast, seemingly about to crush Li An. Li An’s Primordial Spirit stepped out, actively embracing the power of thunder, the Life Seed operated swiftly, drawing the force of heavenly thunder into the body for self-refinement.
Li An’s body cracked in response, with blood gushing out from the fissures, his old body was unexpectedly so fragile!
In fact, this was the natural law, from mortal to immortal, this step was akin to a fish leaping the dragon gate, meeting heaven’s thunder with a mortal body is extremely difficult, one wrong step could lead to death and the disappearance of the Dao.
Moreover, during this process, one must condense a new body, otherwise even if by luck the thunder tribulation is overcome, one could only become a Corpse Dissolving Immortal, finding it difficult to advance further in this lifetime.
Li An let the heavenly thunder strike himself, under the operation of the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, new flesh and blood rapidly emerged within the thunder tribulation, then an even more fearsome heavenly thunder fell once more, destroying him anew.
The initial heavenly thunder turned into divine weapons and the like, but later on, the tribulation force abruptly changed, a gigantic blue celestial python spiraled down, coiling entirely around Li An, his Primordial Spirit’s body nearly perished, exploding continuously with scorched stench.
Finally subduing this celestial thunder python with difficulty, upon looking up again, more heavenly thunders descended in the form of ferocious tigers and giant birds.
Moreover, this was not the end, following the blue heavenly thunder, a layer of Celestial Fire descended.
"Three Calamities and Six Tribulations!"
Li An’s expression changed slightly, within the records of tribulations of attaining immortality, there is mention of the Three Calamities and Six Tribulations. Since becoming an immortal acts against heaven, it causes heaven to send down blades to cut, beasts to maul, and celestial fire to burn... The weaker one’s cultivation, the fewer tribulations faced, the stronger the cultivation, the more heavenly tribulations manifest and fall.
Li An gritted his teeth and endured.
And the Hongmeng Immortal Light, amidst the continuous shattering of his body, also continuously fused with his Primordial Spirit, being dispersed together, then regrowing together anew...
...
At this moment.
In the small world.
On a certain mountain peak, a young man in white looked across the boundless and vast celestial tribulations of heaven and earth, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Throughout the world, countless immortal flowers bloom, yet they are all but fallen petals along my immortal path."
...
Good night.
