294 The Transformation in the Heavenly Tribulation (2)
“However, I should be able to withstand it if I try again!” Jiang Ming gritted his teeth and firmly suppressed the power of the inextinguishable origin light.
He could feel the power of the tribulation. Although it was terrifying, it seemed to have been suppressed within the Foundation Establishment Realm. It was infinitely close to the Golden Core Realm. However, it had never broken through that boundary.
“Could it be that the heavenly tribulation is also based on the cultivation level of the person undergoing the tribulation?” Jiang Ming thought. “Maybe this is also a test.”
However, this test was a little too cruel. Almost all of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators would probably die here.
Boom!
An even more terrifying bolt of lightning fell. A big pit was struck where Jiang Ming was standing, and everything was charred black. He was struck so hard that he did not even look like a human. He felt that a large number of his bones and meridians were broken, and he could not even stand up.
However, during this process, Jiang Ming suddenly felt that the celestial energy in his body seemed to be thriving in the heavenly tribulation. It seemed to be integrating with his body, and now, it felt like it was an indistinguishable part of him.
In the depths of Jiang Ming’s body, new blood and muscles were also forming. They were constantly being destroyed and rebuilt and were more powerful than ever each time.
Jiang Ming had a trace of enlightenment. “The heavenly tribulation is not only a tribulation of life and death. It is also a sorting and integration of the physical body. It will completely mend your previous flaws and set you on the right path.”
The level of celestial energy was too high. Even if the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body was an invincible technique, the cultivator’s realm could not completely control its power. With the help of the power of the heavenly tribulation, the cultivator could completely integrate the celestial energy with his body.
“The person who created this technique is really a ruthless person.”
Jiang Ming could not help but admire him. He continued trying to pass the tribulation.
After an unknown amount of time, the last bolt of lightning struck down and the dark cloud finally dispersed.
Jiang Ming was lying in a deep pit, his skin was torn open, and his body was surrounded by gallons of his own blood. He had been ravaged many times.
The Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body operated on its own, and the last trace of the celestial energy completely integrated into his body, making Jiang Ming’s body slowly recover.
Jiang Ming blinked, and the inextinguishable origin light started to repair and recover his body. In a few breaths, he was completely restored.
If he did not have the inextinguishable original light, even if his physical body underwent a transformation, he would still have to rest for ten days to half a month before he could fully recover.
However, with the help of the inextinguishable origin light, this problem did not exist at all.
“Only after passing this tribulation can I be considered to have completed the third level of the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body!”
Jiang Ming clenched his fist, and a faint light flowed in his palm. He felt that at this time, his whole person was like a powerful and unparalleled magical tool.
He even had a feeling that perhaps no one below the Golden Core Realm could be his match.
“As for Golden Core Realm cultivators, I probably can’t fight them head-on. After all, experts of that level have lived for hundreds of years and have many trump cards in their hands!”
Jiang Ming muttered to himself. He was not too arrogant. Only his physical body was powerful. His spiritual energy and soul still needed to be stronger. He still had to make up for his shortcomings as much as possible in order to face more powerful enemies.
A black shadow suddenly swept over, accompanied by an anxious shout.
“Bro! Are you still alive? Don’t tell me you’ve been struck to death.”
Jiang Ming’s good mood from his breakthrough was instantly gone. He jumped out of the big pit in a bad mood, put away his storage ring and other items, and changed into clean clothes.
“You’re actually fine?” When the black sword saw Jiang Ming in perfect condition, it was shocked. “That was a heavenly tribulation! Bro, who are you? Are you really the reincarnation of a demonic powerhouse?”
“Friend, times have changed. Which of today’s peerless geniuses hasn’t passed one or two heavenly tribulations? What I did is nothing, nothing!” Jiang Ming gave him a random excuse.
The black sword was so stunned that it could not tell whether his words were true. Had the cultivation world of the new era developed so quickly?
“Alright, there’s no need to stay here any longer. It’s time to leave!” Jiang Ming raised his head, looked at the dark clouds and the dome of stars that had dispersed, and smiled faintly.
Although there were still remnants of celestial energy here, he had broken through three levels of the Hundred Tribulations Sacred Body in a row. It would take some time for this place to recover its energy. He could not cultivate further for the time being. Therefore, it was useless to stay here.
At this moment, the black stone tablet in front of Jiang Ming suddenly cracked, and then with an explosive sound, it suddenly collapsed and turned into dust on the ground.
In the sky above the palace, the rotating stars seemed to slowly rise, moving further and further away from the ground. Gradually, they became real stars, turning into bright specks of light that hung high above.
“You’ve passed the final test of this place?” The black sword mumbled, “The scriptures have crumbled and disappeared. The area has undergone such a change. This can only happen when someone has passed the ultimate trial.”
Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment, and then his heart twinged. Although he had learned the Star Refining Technique, he had not practiced it to a high level.
