Chapter 0326: Attacking the Soul Essence Realm

"Xu Anzhen is Xu Yingdei's grandmother, and is also the person with the strongest cultivation in the Severing Emotions Dao Sect. Even if you look at the entire Yi Xing Mainland, I'm afraid you would not find anyone with a cultivation higher than her." Shi Qionghua's tone was calm without any hint of hatred in it; however, Ning Cheng was able to perceive an unbridled sadness hidden within the depths of her heart.

However, when the words of Shi Qionghua finally sunk into him, that Xu Anzhen was Xu Yingdei's grandmother, Ning Cheng suddenly froze. Shi Qionghua was a person from the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, and also Xu Yingdei's master, so why would Xu Yingdei's grandmother suppress Shi Qionghua's spiritual soul? Was it because Shi Qionghua did not cultivate the cultivation method of the Severing Emotions Dao Sect?

"My cultivation is not a result of Severing Emotions Dao Sect's cultivation method; so strictly speaking, I’m not a person from the Severing Emotions Dao Sect. The reason I am considered as a part of Severing Emotions Dao Sect is that a part of my life essence was sealed away by Xu Anzhen; as such, I simply cannot even show half a shred of resistance or revolt against them. Over the years, I ended up helping the Severing Emotions Dao Sect do a lot of things, moreover wherever Xu Yingdei goes, I have to follow and protect her."

As Shi Qionghua spoke until here, she became a bit distracted, and only continued after a while, "I'm not much of Xu Yingdei's master rather I'm more like her guardian. However, although Xu Anzhen's cultivation is very high, but her soul is seriously injured, and even her corporeal body is heavily wounded, as such her influence over me is also affected. However she is aware that my life essence is not only extremely pure but also extremely powerful, as such the reason she suppressed my life essence is because she wants to use it to nourish herself."

"Once she recovers to a certain extent, she would devour the suppressed part of my life essence, and could then easily control me back to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, only to end up becoming supplements for her, in order to improve the quality of her own life essence. With her ability, presumably within a year or so, she would be strong enough to devour the part of my life essence that she is suppressing. If she could find something like the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence, this recovery period would shrink to six months or even shorter."

"That old hag." Even though Ning Cheng's heart had momentarily settled down, he still could not help himself from cursing aloud. He had initially thought that Shi Qionghua had somehow reached the end of her lifespan, but it turned out that it was because the old hag Xu Anzhen was suppressing her life essence, and even wanted to devour Shi Qionghua's life essence.

"She does not look old." Shi Qionghua replied calmly.

"What kind of ancestor is she? Is she even of the same species? I almost found myself falling for Xu Yingdei's affections, damn it she really deserves to die." Ning Cheng cursed out angrily, at the same time he also felt an incomparable shame in his heart. Even if his cultivation ended up stuck at the Profound Core Realm, he would definitely take a trip to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect to steal back Shi Qionghua's suppressed life essence.

Shi Qionghua on hearing Ning Cheng's words shook her head and spoke, "Xu Yingdei would never enter dual cultivation with you, even if you did not turn emotionally useless. I have been with her for 20 years. No one knows her better than me."

"But that morning, she stripped herself and voluntarily entered my bed, if it had not been for Yin Kongchan's interruption, we most likely would have already entered dual cultivation." Ning Cheng asked in doubt.

Shi Qionghua took out a jade strip and put it in front of Ning Cheng and spoke, "If someone from the Severing Emotions Dao Sect wants to sever their emotions, they have to meet a person with a strong and firm heart, before they entangle them in their emotions. You will unknowingly be influenced by them, to the point that even the smallest of acts would leave a deep impression on you. This jade strip contains the Entangling Emotions Cultivation Method, however cultivating this cultivation method is not easy at all."

"However once they successfully cultivate it, its effects would simply be undetectable; moreover it also does not produce any kind of law fluctuations. All they have to do is to recognize a point that would tug at the opposite party's heart. It doesn't matter if it is just some superfluous words, skin contact, or even the aura of their body. Even the fragrance from their body would be able to influence your desires towards them."

Ning Cheng immediately remembered the two times he ended up in awkward situations with Xu Yingdei. At that time, he had not paid much attention to the fragrance and thought it to be usual for her, then there was also the time when Xu Yingdei had inadvertently exposed herself to him. It turns out that he was unknowingly being emotionally entangled by Xu Yingdei, to the point that he still could not realize it. It was no wonder that even though Yin Kongchan was not even half a point inferior to Xu Yingdei in looks, he still did not feel even the slightest emotion towards her. Why does this woman not go to the brothel?

"You want me to not go to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect. Is this because you know that I definitely would not be able to come out right?" Ning Cheng finally understood Shi Qionghua's meaning.

Shi Qionghua had wanted him to not go to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, not because of Xu Yingdei; rather it was for his own sake.

Shi Qionghua on seeing that Ning Cheng understood her meaning also did not continue to conceal it and spoke, "That's right, you going to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, even if you are blessed with ten lives or even a hundred lives, it would not bring you any luck in there."

"Fortunately, I did not give the Mirage Tree or the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence to Xu Yingdei, otherwise would it not bring more harm to you?" Ning Cheng spoke out gladly. Xu Yingdei had indeed asked him about these things, but fortunately, he had not given it to her.

"You really have the Mirage Tree?" Shi Qionghua asked, at this time she was already numb to Ning Cheng's many secrets. Although she also had many secrets, but compared to Ning Cheng's secrets, her secrets were simply no secrets at all. At best, she only had her inheritance of reincarnation that was comparable.

"Yes, I do have a Nine-Coloured Mirage Tree. If it is useful for you, I can give it to you." Ning Cheng spoke without hesitation.

Shi Qionghua looked at Ning Cheng's unconcerned eyes, which caused her heart to slightly jump. Although her cultivation was extremely high, but all along, her cultivation was filled with cracks and hidden threats. Otherwise, with her inheritance and qualifications, she would have reached a much higher peak than the present.

She never had any friends, nor any elder sister or a younger sister; as such, she did not have a particularly happy time growing up. Every time she wanted to retreat, her favourite thing to do was to silently go to some ordinary cities and help those who were poor. However, she had never had the chance of enjoying the feeling of being helped by others; moreover, she simply never wanted to receive help from others.

This time, when she asked Ning Cheng for a Mirage Stone, although it was not planned out in a good way, but with such a matter had really happening, she would still be willing to use her own body to save Ning Cheng in return for it rather than choosing to kill Ning Cheng and rob him. At this time, when Ning Cheng nonchalantly said that he would give her the Mirage Tree, it suddenly caused her to go somewhat absent-minded.

It was only after a good long while did she regain her senses and spoke "No, although a Mirage Tree is very good, however my cultivation is too low to be able to use it, however that Xu Anzhen would actually be able to use the Mirage Tree."

Ning Cheng, at this moment, was secretly thanking Yin Kongchan for taking his fake ring. If Yin Kongchan had not taken his ring, how could Xu Yingdei let go of his original ring that contained the miniature world?

"Is the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence useful to you?" Ning Cheng took out a jade bottle and spoke.

An ice cold biting aura instantly enveloped the immortal cave, allowing Shi Qionghua to instantly realize that this indeed was the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence.

"Although it is useful to me, but its usefulness is not that great. My life essence is suppressed by Xu Anzhen, and as long as there is even a trace of my life essence still being suppressed by her, I will end up being completely controlled by her one day. Going to the Heaven's Way is only an action out of my helplessness, even if I don't die in the Heaven's Way; I might still be under her suppression." Shi Qionghua shook her head and pushed the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence back to Ning Cheng.

However, Ning Cheng once again pushed the bottle of Geocentric 9 Yin Essence back to Shi Qionghua and spoke, "Senior Apprentice Sister Qionghua, you can keep it, I have two bottles."

Shi Qionghua hesitated slightly, before she took out a jade bottle. Then filling it with one third of the contents from Ning Cheng's bottle, she gave the rest two thirds back to Ning Cheng and spoke, "This kind of thing is extremely precious, and also very difficult to obtain. This much is more than enough for me; you can keep the rest for yourself."

Ning Cheng also no longer pushed it back again, as he put the bottle away. He did not speak again. He kept thinking about how to go to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, and take back the trace of Shi Qionghua's life essence that was suppressed there.

Seeing Ning Cheng silent, Shi Qionghua removed a white bracelet before handing it to Ning Cheng and spoke, "This is something that my mother left me with please give it to sister Luofei."

Ning Cheng was completely surprised as he received the bracelet and spoke, "Senior Apprentice Sister Qionghua, you don't blame me?"

Shi Qionghua gave a slight smile, "I have never blamed you."

Ning Cheng stared at Shi Qionghua; he had never seen such a beautiful smile in his life.

Shi Qionghua stood up, and once again turned around. After talking to Ning Cheng about these things, she suddenly felt a lot comfortable in her heart.

"I'm leaving now, please don't think of me." Shi Qionghua, at this moment, felt a lot more relaxed as she walked out.

Ning Cheng could also feel that Shi Qionghua had already made up her mind, so he also did not ask her to stay back. Rather he just silently watched Shi Qionghua walk away. In any case, he had to go to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, to retrieve Shi Qionghua's suppressed life essence. This kind of thing, even if he perfectly knew that he was walking to his own death, he had to do it.

He did not speak out his intentions to Shi Qionghua, he knew that if he as much as even hinted on it, Shi Qionghua would never let him go, and would only make her worry about him even more. If he dies, then Shi Qionghua would also not know about it, and would be able to carry on as if nothing happened. Luofei was also under the care of that white haired old woman, and had also deliberately requested Elder Sister Shu for her help; Elder Sister Shu would definitely be able to find Luofei. With Elder Sister Shu's abilities, Luofei would not have to endure hardships. Other than Luofei, he simply did not have anything as a person to be worth being remembered.

This time, Ning Cheng decided to not leave this place. He rearranged the array formation outside and went ahead and directly arranged a Spiritual Gathering Array, before he started cultivating.

Ning Cheng's cultivation was already on the brink of advancement, so now that he once again started cultivating, in just half a month, he reached the Great Circle of the Profound Core Realm.

In order to prevent the Thunder Tribulation from blasting apart his and Shi Qionghua's residence to bits and pieces, Ning Cheng once again tidied and put away all the things here, before he once again concealed the immortal cave and walked away.

He was going to find a place suitable to cross the tribulation and advance to the Soul Essence Realm.

Three days later, Ning Cheng stopped in the middle of empty wilderness. After making sure that there was nobody around, Ning Cheng began setting up a huge Spiritual Gathering Array. Bringing out tens of millions of spirit stones, Ning Cheng stacked them on each node of the Spiritual Gathering Array, in the form of a small hill.

Ning Cheng was at the Great Circle of Profound Core Realm currently, although his foundation was not shallow, however he could not directly advance like Xu Yingdei by severing his emotions. In other words, he simply did not have the ability to call down the Thunder Tribulation at a whim.

After cultivating there for a week, Ning Cheng directly swallowed a Soul Condensing Pill. The extremely pure and powerful spiritual qi contained in the pill mixed together with the rich spiritual qi gathered by the Spiritual Gathering Array. The extremely volatile mixture then immediately rushed into the meridians of Ning Cheng's body in just a twinkling of an eye, before it finally came to an abrupt stop in front of a barrier, the cultivation barrier to the 1st Level of Soul Essence Realm.

This situation was a lot different from his previous advancements, because this was the first time for Ning Cheng to consciously feel a cultivation barrier. This barrier was like a huge door in general. Usually he would never be able to even feel such barrier let alone encountering it. But because of the union of the energy from the Soul Condensing Pill and the extremely rich spiritual qi, the potent mixture had ended up directly slamming against it.

"Boom….."

A huge boom echoed out in his Sea of Consciousness, as if an iron awl had punctured through Ning Cheng's heart, which made Ning Cheng feel extremely uncomfortable, to the point that he even sprayed out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

This one explosion truly was something that originated from the impact on the front face of door that acted as his cultivation barrier. However, it only caused a slight tremor over the front face of the gate that acted as his cultivation barrier, before it once again returned to what it was originally. It made Ning Cheng think of a phrase 'striking a stone with an egg', wasn't his current situation similar to striking a stone with an egg.

Ning Cheng's heart immediately sank, if he had to rely on such kinds of impacts for his cultivation, then relying on just a single Soul Condensation Pill, he would never be able to advance to the Soul Essence Realm. He also knew that once he advanced to the Soul Essence Realm, it would immediately cause the descent of the Thunder Tribulation, it was also for this specific purpose that he had even put on a set of armour.

But from this one impact, which could not even visibly shake the gate that acted as his cultivation barrier, it truly would have been a strange event if it were able to call down the Thunder Tribulation.

No, he absolutely had to take advantage of this opportunity to attack the Soul Essence Realm, only then would he be able to go to the Severing Emotions Dao Sect; otherwise, his chances of survival would be almost negligible.

Understanding this point, Ning Cheng immediately started acting like he had gone crazy, allowing unquantifiable quantities of spiritual qi to seep into him, while at the same time he frantically transformed the spiritual qi into true essence, then combining it with the medicinal nature of the Soul Essence Pill, he once again repeatedly bombarded the cultivation barrier.

Just a single explosion caused by a bombardment, although was not able to produce any visible effect, but it still caused Ning Cheng to feel extreme pain to the point of vomiting a mouthful of blood. So it could only be imagined the amount of torment he was currently going through one explosion after another.

Chapter 0327: Blue Thunder City's Shadow

Ning Cheng successively vomited out huge mouthfuls of blood; however, the power behind the impacts on the Soul Essence Realm's cultivation barrier was getting smaller and smaller. Ning Cheng immediately turned anxious, by this point, he was already aware that even with tens of millions of spirit stones, combined with the Soul Condensing Pill that he had just swallowed, it was still not enough to help him advance to the Soul Essence Realm.

It was not that the things that he was using were of inferior quality, nor the fact that he had not prepared enough; it’s just that the resources needed for his advancement were abnormally huge. It also made it clear that if he wanted to advance to the Soul Sculpting Realm next time, then he simply can’t rely on just a pill.

However, Ning Cheng had already hardened his heart to advance to the Soul Essence Realm, even if he did not have enough resources currently, he did not want to give up. So he went ahead and directly took out the broken crystal stone given to him by that old fogey.

Just as he brought out the crystal stone, he did not need to even stimulate it to start absorbing, before a pure and extremely rich aura directly poured into his meridians from it. Breaking past all obstacles in the way, this aura struck the Soul Essence Realm's cultivation barrier.

Only this time, a crack finally appeared on this cultivation barrier because of the explosion.

What a powerful crystal stone, Ning Cheng thought as he felt secretly amazed, but at the same time he desperately continued to absorb the crystal stone's aura, while he continued to use it to strike this cultivation barrier.

"Kaka…." A larger crack appeared before it quickly expanded; allowing Ning Cheng to realize that he finally was able to break open the Soul Essence Realm's cultivation barrier.

"Boom boom boom….." Towering roars suddenly exploded out above his head, then without any prior warnings, nine thick flashes of lightning descended simultaneously, each flash of lightning was no thinner than a baby's arm.

Ning Cheng had never seen or even experienced a thunder tribulation before, so he had no idea about how powerful would the thunder tribulation be when one advanced from the Profound Core Realm to the Soul Essence Realm. However, he had read many jade strips before and had also heard many different experiences. From all those he knew that to advance from the Profound Core Realm to the Soul Essence Realm, one was required to pass through four sets of nine thunder tribulations. This would also the first time for a cultivator to experience a thunder tribulation.

Four sets of nine thunder tribulations meant that 36 tribulation thunder arcs would descend. As long as he was able to defend against the 36 descending tribulations thunder arcs, he would have a higher chance to advance to the Soul Essence Realm. However, these thunder tribulations arcs had not yet descended upon him, yet he was still able to feel the astonishing destructive power contained in them.

What Ning Cheng had not expected was that just the first wave of the tribulation thunder arcs would be terrifying to such an extent, especially since just the first wave of nine tribulation thunder arcs descending possessed the thickness of a baby's arm.

This kind of destructive aura was almost enough to suffocate Ning Cheng. At this moment, where would Ning Cheng find the time to hesitate for even half a moment? He immediately put away the broken crystal stone into his ring, before he simultaneously brought out the Cosmic True Devil Axe, the Profound Break Spear and even stimulated every scrap of true essence in his body to create a true essence shield around him.

"Boom ka, boom ka……"

As the thunder and lightning bombed onto Ning Cheng's Profound Break Spear, the Profound Break Spear in Ning Cheng's hand almost in an instant turned into a tofu like residue, before being completely torn to pieces. The Cosmic True Devil Axe was able to block two of the tribulation thunder arcs, before it was also directly blown hundreds of meters away.

Not good. Ning Cheng's heart turned even more anxious as he raised his hands and immediately sent out a few punches. The extremely formidable Axe Intent gushed out accompanying his fists, causing an Axe Line formed from fist shadows to appear before him.

"Bang bang" The Axe Line formed from fist shadows exploded out at the descending tribulation thunder arcs, allowing three of the descending tribulation arcs to dissipate a bit. However, his fists were like fragile and dry wood in front of their power, causing them to instantly shatter upon contact.

The rest of the thunder and lightning arcs, almost at the same time, not only tore through Ning Cheng's true essence shield, but even shot through the armour that Ning Cheng wore, as if all of it was just a sheet of paper in general.

"Kaka…." The sounds of bones being shattered erupted along with sprays of blood, while the residual power in the tribulation thunder arcs pushed Ning Cheng deeper into the ground causing a huge crater to form around him with him in the centre.

Ning Cheng's heart completely sank at this moment, as the threat of death finally started to sink into his heart. He finally realized that he had truly underestimated the Thunder Tribulation; moreover, this underestimation was not just an underestimation of one or two levels.

The images of him turning into flying ash under the tribulation once again appeared in his consciousness. Unexpectedly, it looks like what he had seen at that time was truly going to become a reality. This was just the first wave of tribulation thunder arcs, yet he was already not able to endure it. As such, it was needless to say about the later waves.

These kind of horrifying tribulation thunder arcs, even if he was fully prepared, he felt that he would not be able to pull through. The tribulation thunder arcs were quickly tearing apart Ning Cheng's body, and in just a short time reached an inch inside of his bones, at this point he basically had already lost all the ability to resist. However, at this moment Ning Cheng calmed down, since he was already riding the tiger, it was futile to think of anything else.

After calming down, Ning Cheng then thought of the Embracing Yang God Tactic, which was actually a Body Forging Cultivation Method. At this point, he was already seriously injured, to the point that he can't possibly be any more seriously injured. Would it be possible for him to use the Embracing Yang God Tactic to absorb lightning arcs to forge his body?

To Ning Cheng's complete surprise, the Embracing Yang God Tactic was really useful. The lightning arcs rampaging through his body, tearing apart not only his corporeal body but also his bones, the Embracing Yang God Tactic actually condensed all this damage and destruction and fused it into what was left of his corporeal body. As long as he was still able to operate the Embracing Yang God Tactic, he was able to use the power of these tribulation thunders to start quenching his corporeal body. Not only that, he could even feel his cultivation actually thriving under this kind of thunder source.

If one had the chance to live, then no one would be willing to die, it was the same for Ning Cheng. At this moment, he was crazily operating the Embracing Yang God Tactic, causing the lightning arcs that were tearing apart Ning Cheng's body to instantly turn into nourishing thunder sources before being rapidly absorbed.

Ning Cheng struggled to take out several healing pills and swallowed them down, then took out the Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith before pouring a mouthful of it into his mouth. As long as there was even the slightest of a chance, he did not want to give up.

As his body rapidly recovered, he could also feel his cultivation deepening scrape by scrape, while his corporeal body was also being rapidly reconstructed. Even though Ning Cheng was operating the Embracing Yang God Tactic, under the influence of the Mysterious Yellow Formless, it was also upgraded and changed, allowing him to absorb the thunder source at a much faster pace, causing his cultivation to progress even faster.

However, even if that was the case, it was still too slow.

Thunder resounded in the air, but at the same time, a number of blue green coloured lightning arcs descended, causing Ning Cheng's heart to sink to the bottom.

He was just like a person who found a sluice on a lake being overfilled with water, and began using it to drain the water, but unfortunately his speed was simply too slow, and the inflow of water would soon cause the lake to burst apart and overflow. Currently he was in a similar situation as he faced the thunder tribulation, he did have a method to turn it completely into a thunder source and absorb it. Compared to the terrifying thunder tribulation descending on him, his efforts were simply a drop of water in a bucket.

Not to mention about being able to withstand the next wave of tribulation thunder arcs, his body was still seriously injured, and had only recovered by less than half.

"Boom boom boom……" Another wave of nine lightning arcs descended, as Ning Cheng was almost on the verge of descending into despair, he suddenly felt his Zifu shaking.

It was the Everlasting Blue Thunder City.

Ning Cheng immediately thought of the Everlasting Blue Thunder City, without any time to think of anything else, he immediately exerted everything he had to stimulate and bring out the Everlasting Blue Thunder City to withstand the descending lightning arcs.

At this moment, Ning Cheng was equivalent to a cultivator half a step into the Soul Essence Realm, he also had an extremely powerful spiritual consciousness, plus he had even been continuously refining the Everlasting Blue Thunder City. As such under such crazy stimulations, it unexpectedly exploded out with a blue green thunder city shadow.

He did not really bring out the Blue Thunder City, rather just managed to bring out a shadow of the Everlasting Blue Thunder City. This shadow of the Everlasting Blue Thunder City, which he had just brought out, was several times clearer than the previous instances, to the point that one could even see the outline of the Thunder City.

"Ka ka ka……" The nine lightning arcs, at this moment, completely descended on the blue green thunder city's shadow.

A huge explosion sounded out, as the five lighting arcs in the front were directly absorbed by the blue green thunder city's shadow. They were just like mud falling into the sea, disappearing without even a trace.

When the sixth and seventh arcs struck the blue green thunder city's shadow, Ning Cheng immediately felt a sharp pain in his Sea of Consciousness, followed by the thunder city's shadow being reduced to slag under the strike of the blue green lightning arcs, allowing the eighth and ninth blue green lightning arcs a clear path to Ning Cheng's body.

After the baptism from the first wave of tribulations thunders, Ning Cheng did not panic as he did initially, rather he stimulated his true essence and immediately sent out axe fists towards the two descending lightning arcs. Although it was not enough to completely dispel the lightning arcs; but he was able to reduce the power behind it to the extent that he could utilize the Embracing Yang God Tactic to absorb the remnant lightning arcs.

Although wounds stacked upon each other, but at least Ning Cheng did not feel that initial despair that he felt after the first wave of thunder tribulation, at least he now had a way to cross the tribulation.

The next moment, Ning Cheng immediately recalled the Cosmic True Devil Axe.

His corporeal body under the influence of the Embracing Yang God Tactic, was constantly quenched, Ning Cheng could also consciously feel that his corporeal body was constantly strengthening, allowing his resistance towards the tribulation thunder to constantly rise.

Previously, he had thought that the biggest harvest that he obtained after entering the Forsaken Land was the rod made of unknown materials. But only now did Ning Cheng realize that the biggest harvest that he obtained in the Forsaken Land was unexpectedly the Embracing Yang God Tactic. The Embracing Yang God Tactic was simply of no use to him in the Forsaken Land, but rather it came to his use during the time he was trying to cross the tribulation. Not only was it useful, but it also became his life saving trump-card.

"Boom boom boom." Exploding sounds erupted once again, allowing Ning Cheng to realize that it signified the descent of the third wave of lightning arcs, but at this time, he did not have the previous nervousness and worry.

With the help of pills and Essence Birthing Bamboo Pith, Ning Cheng was able to restore most of his spiritual consciousness and true essence, allowing him to once again bring out the Everlasting Blue Thunder City's shadow.

Once again, nine successive lightning arcs descended, however Ning Cheng was prepared for it this time. Of the nine lightning arcs, the Everlasting Blue Thunder City was able to extinguish seven of them. Then using his Cosmic True Devil Axe, he was able to take care of another of those lightning arcs, letting the one remaining to strike his body, allowing him to continue quenching is corporeal body, while strengthening his cultivation.

Ning Cheng himself could feel that as his corporeal body continued with the quenching process, it ended up breaking past some of the body forging barriers inside him, allowing his body to reach an even higher level. Unfortunately, he did not know up to what extent his body's strength had advanced currently. It was because he simply did not know anything about Body Forging Cultivation Methods.

In any case, it seems that he only has to face one more wave of thunder tribulations, and as long as he was able to survive past this last wave of tribulation thunders, he would then become a true Soul Essence Cultivator.

Ning Cheng had just thought this, when cracking sounds erupted over his head, signifying the descent of another wave of those blue green lightning arcs

But Ning Cheng soon found himself speechless, although he was seeing the descent of thunder tribulation, but it was not just nine tribulation thunder arcs descending this time, rather he saw eighteen tribulation thunder arcs descending on him.

As the tribulation thunder arcs rapidly descended, if made Ning Cheng feel that he would truly not be able to continue. Ning Cheng crazily stimulated the Everlasting Blue Thunder City's shadow, however even he knew that even if worked in an even crazier manner, he would not be able to extinguish these 18 lightning arcs at the same time, causing his heart to once more go cold.

It looks like this Thunder Tribulation has already set its heart on killing him. Before he went ahead to finally advance to the Soul Essence Realm, he had done a lot of preparation, had even discretely asked many cultivators in the Soul Essence Realm. So he knew that advancing to the Soul Essence Realm from the Profound Core Realm, one would have to first go through four sets of nine thunder tribulations, but this thunder tribulation had already reached the five sets of nine level, what exactly did this mean?

If it was only a person who lied to him it would have still been acceptable, but Ning Cheng did not believe that every single Soul Essence Cultivator would lie to him.

"Ka ka" With every strike of the blue green tribulation lightning being absorbed by the thunder city, it only served to increase the burden on him. When two more tribulation thunder arcs descended on the blue thunder city's shadow, Ning Cheng knew that he could not go on like this, he had to think of another way.

If each of these lightning arcs were a front ranking expert, then he was only equivalent to a third rate low hand. If only these lightning arcs could be lowered down to the level third rate low hands, then he would not be afraid of them much.

As these thoughts flashed past Ning Cheng's mind, he immediately controlled the Everlasting Blue Thunder City's shadow to start ascending.

Under Ning Cheng's control, the shadow of the Everlasting Blue Thunder City had just touched a descending tribulation thunder arc, when it was immediately shifted by Ning Cheng. Most of the thunder source of this tribulation thunder arc was absorbed by the Everlasting Blue Thunder City, while the remaining smashed downwards towards him. But compared to the original power, the power contained within was simply several degrees lower.
