Chapter 816: Chapter 467: Dance of Nascent Soul Formation!
The tribulation clouds triggered by Zou Feng’s Nascent Soul Formation continued to gather endlessly, even after over half an hour had passed. Looking at it, the sky over that area seemed as though it was about to collapse. Within the already condensed tribulation clouds, massive numbers of indescribable, unknown monsters faintly appeared. It was as if the moment the Celestial Tribulation officially began, they would immediately tear Zou Feng to shreds, leaving absolutely nothing behind.
Over at the Xuanwu Palace, Tian Yun and others with lower cultivation Realms could no longer look directly at the tribulation clouds. Even if they forced themselves to keep watching, they immediately felt agitated and restless, their eyes stinging unbearably.
Just the preparation time for the Nascent Soul Formation alone took a full hour. Naturally, the tribulation clouds had been condensing for an entire hour as well. None of those present, including Li Chengxin, could predict just how terrifying the Celestial Tribulation would be once it officially arrived. It was as if heaven and earth were furious, entirely unwilling to tolerate Zou Feng’s existence, and intended to give him a grand “execution”!
Indeed, in the eyes of the crowd, this was truly not undergoing a tribulation, but facing an execution…
By this time, Zou Feng had finally accumulated enough momentum, and his comprehension of the Power of Cause and Effect became increasingly clear.
In that case… it was time to break through.
Thinking of this, Zou Feng slowly opened his eyes. This simple action gave him a violent jolt. He found himself completely locked inside a Celestial Tribulation Prison. Seemingly endless Power of Heaven and Earth Rules continuously surged forward, as if warning him not to attempt challenging the might of heaven—giving up on his Nascent Soul Formation was his only path to survival.
However, this threat was completely futile against Zou Feng. He knew he wouldn’t be the one taking the brunt of the Celestial Tribulation later anyway.
The next moment, Zou Feng decisively followed his plan and placed Big Brother Gongyang Marquis at the top position on the List of Gods. After that, he wasted no more time and began to circulate the Power of Cause and Effect he had just comprehended, injecting it into his Golden Core.
With the injection of the Power of Cause and Effect, the originally spinning Golden Core suddenly skyrocketed in its rotation speed. Not only that, but rhythmic pulses of Life Force were also generated. As these anomalies continued to emerge, Zou Feng could clearly feel himself gradually breaking free from the shackles of the Rules of Heaven and Earth…
RUMBLE!
A streak of golden lightning flashed across the sky, lifting the curtain on the “Celestial Tribulation execution.” The first to appear was a literal golden thunderstorm. Dense Golden Thunder struck down continuously, as if a Torrential Thunder was pouring from the sky.
This thunderstorm alone—or rather, this waterfall of lightning—was enough to dumbfound the surrounding onlookers. Just what heavenly law had he violated to provoke such a terrifying Celestial Tribulation? Generally, undergoing tribulation for the Nascent Soul Realm began with being struck by lightning. Although the power of the Celestial Thunder varied from person to person, it usually fell in the form of successive bolts, or at most, tens or hundreds of bolts striking simultaneously. Since when did lightning pour down in the form of a cascading waterfall, exactly like Zou Feng was experiencing right now…
This was practically forcing Zou Feng to take a bath in Celestial Thunder!
Wait, no, he was actually taking a bath in it?!
With his incredible eyesight, Li Chengxin could actually see Zou Feng’s figure through the dense layers of Golden Thunder. However, Zou Feng’s current actions immediately left him utterly bewildered. After all, from the looks of it, Zou Feng truly appeared to be bathing in the Celestial Thunder…
Li Chengxin was not mistaken. Having finally encountered such a prime opportunity, how could Zou Feng not seize the chance to hastily cultivate his Tribulation-Indestructible Body? These immensely powerful bolts of Golden Thunder, carrying the same Purification Power as his Golden Lotus, were the perfect tools for tempering his Tribulation-Indestructible Body.
The last time his Tribulation-Indestructible Body broke through to the Realm of Transcendence, it had spawned marvelous effects that Zou Feng still hadn’t found the time to study properly. But looking at it now, by borrowing the power of the Golden Thunder, perhaps he could try to forge some sort of Golden Body?
The Torrential Thunder lasted for about the time it takes to finish a meal before it gradually weakened and ultimately dissipated. Zou Feng clearly hadn’t had enough; he wished it could have lasted just a little longer.
However, he was well aware that this Torrential Thunder was merely the beginning of the Celestial Tribulation. When he helped Zhu Caiwei undergo her tribulation last time, Zou Feng had already realized that the attacks unleashed by the Celestial Tribulation were highly targeted. For instance, the Golden Thunder carrying Purification Power just now was actually intended to purify a venomous existence like himself.
If the Exotic Poison within his body were to be mostly purified, his Poison Dao foundation would essentially be destroyed, making any thoughts of Nascent Soul Formation impossible. Since the Celestial Tribulation realized it couldn’t purify him, the next method it would deploy would probably be…
Just as he formed this guess in his mind, countless venomous entities condensed from the Power of Heaven and Earth Rules continuously crawled out from the thick tribulation clouds. Although these creatures lacked physical bodies, they were alternative venomous beings born from the gathered Power of Heaven and Earth. Their toxicity was so immense that it left even Zou Feng secretly clicking his tongue in amazement.
Even though he had refined far too many types of Exotic Poison by now, the Great Thousand Worlds was incredibly vast. There were still countless Exotic Poisons he had never witnessed. The venomous entities crawling out of the tribulation clouds at this moment were intending to let him properly experience the highly toxic power of the Great Thousand Worlds in a way he could hardly endure!
In an instant, over a thousand bizarrely shaped venomous entities emerged. Next, they either sprayed venom for ranged attacks or lunged to tear and bite at Zou Feng, transforming the Golden Thunder Punishment into the punishment of the Ten Thousand Poison Devouring Body.
Obviously, seeing that it couldn’t purify Zou Feng, the Celestial Tribulation decided to fight poison with poison.
Unfortunately for it, with the List of Gods protecting him, Zou Feng could simply use these Exotic Poisons “handpicked by heaven and earth” to cultivate his Five Poison Holy Lotus Skill. Coincidentally, his cultivation progress for the Five Poison Holy Lotus Skill had almost ground to a halt recently. He couldn’t help it; it wasn’t that he didn’t want to cultivate the skill, but rather that he could hardly find the corresponding resources anymore.
