Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Lost the Golden Core l

Translator: 549690339

Li Cheng bathed in the Tribulation Thunder, and even when he exerted all his strength to operate the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, he couldn’t completely absorb the Tribulation Thunder.

“As expected of the Tribulation Thunder drawn by more than seven hundred Emperor Grade pills, this is just the first bolt, and yet 1 can’t even absorb half of it!” Li Cheng marveled in secret.

The Time Law enveloped a hundred meters radius, and just like the last time, the Tribulation Thunder was affected by the flow of time turning into lightning orbs, but still, more than half of the lightning was heading towards the group of pills.

Shua!

Qi Jingtian stepped into the void and stood among the group of pills, “Master, 1 want to try too!”

He had barely finished speaking when the lightning orbs had already begun spreading among the pills, and countless pills were blasted into dust, while Qi Jingtian’s screams of agony also rang out.

“Just at the Golden Core Stage, yet daring to rush into the Tribulation Thunder, that guy really is all brawn and no brains!”

“Exactly, the Eighteenth Elder has a strong body, naturally he’ll be fine, but that guy rushing in is simply seeking death!”

“It seems he called the Eighteenth Elder ‘Master’, could it be that he’s a new disciple taken in by the Eighteenth Elder?”

“It’s better not to be, otherwise, the Eighteenth Elder’s lifelong reputation would be ruined by him.”

Everyone from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was discussing, but after Qi Jingtian screamed, he surprisingly stood unharmed in the air, with lightning dancing around his body, looking like a Thunder God descending into the world!

This scene left everyone from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect shocked.

They had seen Li Cheng withstand the Tribulation Thunder, but who would have thought that Li Cheng’s disciple could also possess such a terrifyingly hardy physique!

Even from a great distance, they could feel the horror of the Tribulation Thunder, yet a fellow at the Golden Core Stage actually held up!

Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi exchanged a glance, both of them cultivated the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, and they could distinctly sense that both their Master and junior brother were absorbing the Tribulation Thunder with the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

“Junior sister, our bodies may not be as strong as Master and junior brother’s, but after cultivating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, we have also made great strides. If we could cultivate with the help of the Tribulation Thunder just like junior brother, our progress would be rapid!” Yun Tianqiong said with some anticipation.

“Senior brother, with the strength of our bodies, even absorbing some lightning arcs at the edge is extremely dangerous, shouldn’t we be cautious?” Ling Xi expressed her concerns.

That was Tribulation Thunder, not ordinary heavenly lightning, and it contained a special might that even a sliver of it was something they were not confident in enduring.

Yun Tianqiong nodded but his expression gradually became resolute, “Opportunities are rare, after all, Master is only refining six furnaces of Rising Yuan Pills this time. If we seize this opportunity, we can make our bodies become vastly stronger!”

Saying so, Yun Tianqiong looked towards Ling Xi, “Junior sister, let’s try from the periphery. If we don’t even dare to do that, not to mention that our gap with junior brother will only grow, but most importantly, we will lose face for Master.”

One had a Sword Body, and the other had a Medicine Spirit Body; there was really no need for them to take such a risk, as they could achieve great heights in the future.

But Qi Jingtian’s actions had aroused a profound sense of crisis in Yun Tianqiong: they couldn’t let Master down!

Yun Tianqiong’s words made Ling Xi nod emphatically, “Senior brother is right, let’s start preparing!”

At that moment, the second bolt of Tribulation Thunder began to descend!

Watching Li Cheng absorb a part of it, and the rest of the Tribulation Thunder spread among the pills, both made their move!

The two seized the moment to fly to the edge of the Tribulation Thunder, both operating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

“Have the people of the Eighteen Peaks gone mad? They are all cultivating in the midst of Tribulation Thunder?”

“Madness! Under this level of Tribulation Thunder, an ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivator would be crushed by the pressure just from nearing the edge, yet they are even operating their cultivation techniques to absorb it?”

In an instant, the entire sect was once again in an uproar, and crucially, they saw for themselves that both Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi were standing firm in the Tribulation Thunder!

The sect elders looked at each other, as they could sense that the bodies of the four, Master and disciples alike, were all getting stronger in the midst of the Tribulation Thunder!

Especially Li Cheng, the power fluctuations radiating from his body were so intense they made one’s scalp tingle.

The mentor and three disciples absorbed the Tribulation Thunder together, a scene which made everyone forget about the Pill Tribulation.

The Rising Yuan Pills were supposed to be the protagonists, right?

But at this moment, everyone’s focus was on the four of them.

The third strike of Tribulation Thunder followed closely, and it couldn’t avoid being affected by the Time Law.

But this time, the accumulated thunderball was several times larger than the last one!

Li Cheng, as always, absorbed it with all his might, but before the Tribulation Thunder even reached Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi, their bodies had already been crushed by the immense pressure, skin split and bones shattered!

This last bolt of Tribulation Thunder, far more powerful than the previous two, was a matter of life and death for them with their current physical strength and cultivation; it was simply impossible to absorb!

And there was no time to change their positions, previously at the edge, now, as the thunderball grew, they were dangerously close to the center!

Without a moment to spare, Li Cheng activated the Life Law to envelop the two and pushed them a thousand meters away.

Their pressure dropped dramatically, and their injuries began to heal rapidly under the cover of the Life Law; whether they could afford to absorb any of the Tribulation Thunder, at least their lives were no longer in danger.

Ling Xi bore the intense pain of her wounds healing rapidly, and within her moon-like eyes, shock emerged, “Isn’t this power exactly what 1 need?”

Ignoring her injuries, Ling Xi calmed her breathing and focused, sensing the Life Law enveloping her.

Yun Tianqiong, unwilling to concede, stared at the Tribulation Thunder splattering amidst the pill group; gritting his teeth, he stepped out of the Life Law’s range and drew a tiny thread of it into his body using the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!

Though he had only absorbed a minuscule strand of the Tribulation Thunder, its destructive power within him was terrifying!

In an instant, Yun Tianqiong felt his veins shatter, and the remaining force of the Tribulation Thunder, which barely weakened, surged towards his Dantian!

The Dantian is where the Golden Core resides; should it be damaged, one would be finished!

Yet Yun Tianqiong exhibited no fear, seemingly pushing the essence of Fearless Sword Intent to its limit, allowing the Tribulation Thunder to rush into his Dantian.

In the blink of an eye, the Golden Core was pulverized by the Tribulation Thunder, vanishing along with it!

Li Cheng, who was in the midst of refining the Tribulation Thunder, sensed something and focused on Yun Tianqiong, clearly sensing that the guy was ruined!

“Damn it, what the hell, you managed to cripple yourself with cultivation before becoming a disciple, and now you’ve destroyed your own Golden Core?” Li Cheng’s brows furrowed.

Ignorance breeds fearlessness; was Yun Tianqiong determined to demonstrate the meaning of this saying by putting it into action himself?

With his veins shattered, Li Cheng could use alchemy to heal him, but if the Golden Core is gone, one would have to start cultivating all over again.

That is, if he could survive!

Li Cheng felt helpless; how did he end up with such a troublesome disciple?

And it was his eldest disciple, at that!

Such recklessness, what a disgrace!

You call that fearlessness, but it’s sheer ignorance.

Just as Li Cheng was getting ready to save his life, an astonishing scene unfolded!

Throughout heaven and earth, countless sword lights suddenly appeared, bringing with them a piercing momentum and an unstoppable Sword Intent, spreading throughout the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!

In this moment, everyone’s longswords trembled!
