The shaking Luck immediately stabilized. Qin Xuan's expression changed, "Why aren't you breaking off the relationship? Break off the relationship with me. I really don't know anything, and I can't teach you anything. Let's break it off."
Ji Ning's eyes lit up upon hearing this. As expected, he could see through people's hearts; he had chosen the right Master. Qin Xuan's expression changed; he suddenly realized that his Luck was merging with Ji Ning's Luck faster and faster. He, he, he, damn it!
As his Luck solidified, threads of tribulation Qi, which only he could perceive, poured into his Luck. His Heavenly Tribulation had arrived early, with only half an hour remaining.
Ji Ning watched the Young Man's expression change before him, and he vanished in a flash. "You brat, just you wait! I have an urgent matter; I'll talk to you when I get back!"
Qin Xuan stepped out, disappearing into the Void Realm. He casually found an empty small gully, and with a flick of his sleeves, many items poured out. Four bronze tripods, over ten meters tall, stood on the four surrounding hilltops. In the center of the tripods stood an iron rod nearly twenty meters high.
Twenty-eight small flags transformed into banners taller than a person, arranged around Qin Xuan according to the twenty-eight constellations.
This was not all; scattered precious jades and Spirit Stones formed a long river, setting up Formation after Formation around the valley.
Soon, the entire gully and the small hills on all four sides were completely encircled by Formations, layer upon layer, almost reaching four digits.
With these Formations present, let alone a Heavenly Immortal, even a Pure Yang True Immortal would not be able to escape. So terrifying, truly terrifying. These were all Formations Qin Xuan had prepared to set up in his Immortal Cave when he intended to go into seclusion in this World. Who would have thought they would be used for Undergoing Tribulation?
Qin Xuan formed the last hand seal, and a Spiritual Qi shield, formed by countless layers of Formations, protected him in the center.
Qin Xuan looked up at Heaven, softly muttering, "Here it comes." Suddenly, winds and clouds surged in Heaven, and layer upon layer of black clouds enveloped an area of a hundred li around this gully. Fortunately, the place Qin Xuan chose was uninhabited, otherwise, many people would probably have gathered to watch.
"Hmm?" In the Da Xia Imperial Palace, the Xia Emperor opened his eyes, seemingly sensing an anomaly. Connected to the Luck of the Da Xia Dynasty, a golden Luck Dragon opened its eyes and looked into the distance.
"This is a Heavenly Immortal Tribulation!" The Xia Emperor looked at the black tribulation clouds in Heaven. The power contained within those tribulation clouds shocked even him. He was certain that even with his Pure Yang True Immortal Realm, it would be extremely difficult to pass this kind of tribulation.
Many Heavenly Immortal Old Ancestors of the Great Xia World also opened their eyes and looked towards the black tribulation clouds, their eyes dazzled by the layers of Formations.
"It's over, it's over, this Fellow Daoist is done for." Many Heavenly Immortals conversed in the Void Realm, not optimistic about Qin Xuan's Heavenly Tribulation.
Qin Xuan naturally sensed the Divine Sense of those Heavenly Immortals and even True Immortals, but he was currently Undergoing Tribulation and had no time to concern himself with it.
"Boom!" Terrifying thunder descended from Heaven, transforming into a thunder Dragon that struck towards Qin Xuan. Qin Xuan calmly formed a hand seal, "Quickly, as per the law!"
The four large tripods on the four hilltops suddenly glowed. The iron pillars in the center of the tripods shot out spiritual light that converged above Qin Xuan's head, making contact with the thunder Dragon. The thunder Dragon, surprisingly, followed the spiritual light and transformed into four streaks of lightning, falling into the tripods.
The four bronze tripods emitted brilliant spiritual light. The lightning, astonishingly, transformed into a pool of blue-purple liquid within the tripods. Many Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals were stunned. "What kind of treasure is this?"
"As expected of the spiritual copper I spent a fortune on, specially dug from the neighboring Qingyuan Star before I left, combined with the Dan Artifact refined according to the Supreme Dan Sutra, it really works well." Qin Xuan watched as streaks of lightning transformed into thunder liquid in the bronze tripods along with the spiritual light, feeling incredibly excited. This thunder liquid was formed from Heavenly Tribulation divine lightning, containing Heavenly Might. It had wondrous uses for Alchemy, Artifact Refining, or Body Refining for self-defense.
After eighty-one bolts of lightning fell, the Lightning Tribulation finally receded. The black clouds in Heaven finally dissipated, revealing a layer of purple clouds.
The Lightning Tribulation had only passed for half an hour when red light emerged from the black clouds in Heaven. Crimson divine fire descended from Heaven. "Solar True Fire!" Many Heavenly Immortals exclaimed.
This was Solar True Fire. What was on Ji Ning before was merely a phantom of Solar True Fire condensed from Solar power, its might far less than one-hundred-billionth of true Solar True Fire, and the purpose of that troublesome True Fire was to help Ji Ning with Body Forging.
The purpose of these Solar True Fires was the Heavenly Tribulation. Likewise, these Solar True Fires also contained Heavenly Might.
Qin Xuan's eyes glowed as he looked at these True Fires. Previously, he had relied on the Samadhi True Fire, which he activated with his magical power in his Nine Profound Furnace for Alchemy. Although its power was extraordinary, it was still Acquired Fire.
Although he knew the Two-Phase Cuiwei Divine Fire, his Realm was not high enough to sustain it for long. Refining the Medicinal Pills he needed would take at least several months, and he couldn't bear the Two-Phase Cuiwei Divine Fire.
Although this Solar True Fire was not the Innate Solar True Fire at the center of the Three Realms' Origin Sun Star, it was still a rare Acquired treasure. Coupled with its Heavenly Might, it had infinite wondrous uses for Alchemy and Artifact Refining.
Qin Xuan lifted his hands, as if something was shimmering in them. In less than a moment, a huge turtle shell appeared in Qin Xuan's hands. On the turtle shell was a massive volcano.
This was the shell of the Nine Heavens Profound Turtle. The Nine Heavens Profound Turtle was a rare species from the Primordial World, naturally enormous. The ancestor of the North Sea Profound Turtle sacrificed himself to support Heaven, gaining the favor of Heavenly Dao and receiving Karma, transforming into the Nine Heavens Profound Turtle, the ancestor of all Nine Heavens Profound Turtles. He is now a Peak Quasi-Saint, a Half-Step Hunyuan Dao Fruit, an unparalleled powerhouse.
The Nine Heavens Profound Turtle lived in the Nine Heavens Cloud Sea, carrying nine large volcanoes on his back, known as the Nine Heavens Furnace. One Profound Furnace opened for each Realm, and all Nine Profound Furnaces opening meant reaching the Great Luo, until all Nine Profound Furnaces merged, which was the Quasi-Saint Realm.
This Nine Heavens Furnace of Qin Xuan's, as described in The Xiaoyao You System, was from a Golden Immortal Nine Heavens Profound Turtle who wanted to take a shortcut, attempting to merge the nine furnaces before they had even opened.
As a result, he suffered Qi Deviation and turned to ash, leaving only this turtle shell. Later, this turtle shell was obtained by Laozi, one of the Incarnations of the Taiqing Saint, during his westward journey, and he casually refined it to serve as Laozi's Pill Furnace for a hundred years.
When Laozi achieved Perfection and transformed into Taishang Laojun, he switched to the Innate Spirit Treasure Bagua Furnace, and this Nine Heavens Furnace was discarded until later, when Taishang Laojun's Azure Ox entered the World to obstruct the westward journey and was brought to the Mortal World by the Azure Ox demon.
Only then did Laojun remember this item and send it into this System as a reward. However, this was produced by Laozi, which by approximation is produced by Laojun, and by further approximation, produced by the Taiqing Saint.
The potential of this item is not low at all. After all, this is a Golden Immortal-level turtle shell. If it weren't for Laozi, who was still a Mortal at the time, lacking sufficient magical power, this turtle shell could have become a top-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure.
However, later Laojun had many Magic Treasures, so this item was sent to the treasure vault to gather dust, and no one thought to re-refine it.
After Qin Xuan obtained it, he had been using this Nine Heavens Furnace for Alchemy, nourishing it with the power of Medicinal Pills, hoping that one day this Nine Heavens Furnace could ascend to the level of an Acquired Spirit Treasure.
