tain level, it can allow the water to open up another layer"For example, absorbing three at a time only opens the first layer of water. Absorbing nine at a time opens the third layer, so absorbing six..."Boom!"
Within Jiang Yun's body, the sound of thunder rumbled like war drums, dense and relentless.
His entire body was completely enveloped by countless bolts of lightning.
The dazzling golden light emanating from him made him look like a sun incarnate, shining with unparalleled brilliance in this dark rift.
However, Jiang Yun now couldn't even bother with his own condition. Instead, he hurriedly released his powerful divine sense without reservation, sweeping out in all directions around him at the fastest speed possible.
Because in the surrounding darkness, golden light spots began to appear, densely packed, covering an area of ten thousand zhang.
These dots are not a manifestation of rules.
Because under Jiang Yun's divine consciousness, each of these dust-sized light points had been infinitely magnified, allowing him to clearly see that within them, there was an endless expanse, like a vast world.
But in the world, there is only one thing——Thunder!
A negligible speck of light, yet within it lay countless thunders. Suspended in the darkness, it caused the surrounding gloom to collapse directly, revealing a true void.
It is conceivable that the power of these lights, to Ginger Cloud's feeling, seemed like a single light point could easily destroy a world.
With the appearance of these lights, Jiang Yun's heart was already filled with a strong sense of crisis.
Because he knew those lights were aimed at him, or rather, at his Thunderclap Avatar.
When Lei Jiutian first emerged, his Thunder God form devoured the Nine Profound Thunders nurtured by countless cultivators' flesh and blood, consuming the storm of Lei Bao.
At this very moment, these nine primordial lightning bolts have finally been completely fused into the body of Lei Ting Dao Shen by his own power. This has also caused Lei Ting Dao Shen's cultivation to break through to the Heavenly Protector Realm!
However, Ginger Cloud still didn't understand why, when the Thunder Dao body broke through to the Heavenly Blessing realm, such a situation would occur.
At this time, the awakened Lei Mu gave the answer: "This is the first tribulation of the Five Tribulations of Heaven and Humans, also known as the Dao Tribulation!"
"Your Thunder Dao Body has truly touched upon the Way of Thunder. As long as you pass through the Five Tribulations of Heaven and Human, then you will be able to successfully comprehend the Way of Thunder!"
If Lei Mu's words were to spread, it would undoubtedly shock every cultivator in this world!
Awakening, though it is the ultimate goal for every cultivator, is a level that only a very small number of cultivators can reach.
But all cultivators who are about to attain enlightenment are at the peak of the Daotai realm.
At that time, they were about to go through the five great tribulations of heaven and man. Only by successfully overcoming all of them could they truly attain enlightenment and enter the realm of human-god assimilation, which is considered by most cultivators to be the final stage of cultivation!
However, Jiang Yun was not his true self, only one of his Thunder Dao bodies. Even on the verge of entering the Heavenly Favor Realm, he was about to attain enlightenment...
It goes without saying that others would be astonished if they knew.
However, Ginger Cloud and Lei Mu were not too surprised.
Especially Jiang Yun, he was very clear about every step of his cultivation process for the Lei Ting Dao Shen.
Though it may seem simple, the opportunities gained are unimaginable to other cultivators.
An ordinary cultivator, who wants to improve his cultivation realm and comprehend the way of thunder, the only way is to absorb lightning.
And the thunder they used to absorb was nothing more than the ordinary thunder on a rainy day.
Such a mighty thunderclap, even if it absorbs thousands upon thousands of others, might only gain a sliver of understanding about the Way of Thunder.
But Jiang Yun's Lei Ting Dao Body is different!
The Thunder Dao Body was born directly from the Dao Lightning.
And every step of his growth thereafter was fueled by the tribulation thunders that accompanied Jiang Yun's alchemical concoctions.
While not as powerful as heavenly lightning, a robbery bolt is still hundreds or even thousands of times stronger than ordinary thunder.
Later, the Thunder Dao body snatched two more bolts of lightning from Lei Ling's place.
Then, within the illusionary realm, he devoured a bolt of primordial lightning, giving birth to a realm of thunder.
And, he was also subjected to the reincarnation technique by Jiang Yun, completing a cycle of reincarnation. This made Lei Ting Dao Shen essentially equivalent to an independent life.
Then, she also received the mark bestowed by the Mother of Thunder;
The Mother of Ten Thousand Thunderbolts, the true first bolt of lightning born between heaven and earth. Even Daoist Lords were willing to pay any price to obtain the Dao fruit of the Lightning Path from within Lei Mu's soul.
She imbued the mark she gave to Jiang Yun with the Way of Thunder.
Finally, the Thunderclap's body devoured nine peak-state Yuanlei!
In short, for every bolt of lightning that the Lei Dao Shen absorbs and devours, it's equivalent to the effect that other thunder cultivators could achieve by absorbing tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of bolts of lightning.
Therefore, under the accumulation of these robbery thunders, thunderbolts, primordial thunders, and Mother Thunder marks, cultivating to the present Thunder Dao Body, about to comprehend the Dao of Thunder, is actually nothing strange.
Although Gingercloud accepted this, seeing the golden spots appearing from all directions around them, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Dao Jie, Jiang Yun was no stranger to. Back when he nurtured the cave heaven, during his time in the chaotic primordial world, Dao Jie had already descended upon him.
That tribulation was divided into the Five Elements Tribulation and the Primordial Chaos Tribulation.
Although he had passed the tribulation unscathed last time, even snatching a large amount of Dao patterns from it, the tribulation before him now was completely different from the one he had faced before.
And this is only the first tribulation of the Five Tribulations of Heaven and Man!
"Child, the Five Catastrophes of Heaven and Man target a cultivator's spiritual energy, physical body, vitality, soul, and emotions!"
"But the order in which the Five Tribulations appear is completely random, so I don't know what this first tribulation is targeting. However, the power of this tribulation seems to be extremely great."
But don't worry too much, I'll help you out when it really matters!
Lei Mu's words warmed Jiang Yun's heart.
Although he didn't say anything, a determination had formed in his heart. He would have to overcome this tribulation with his own power and wouldn't let Lei Mu come to his aid.
After all, Lei Mu had just helped kill Zong Bai and was now extremely weak.
And the power of this tribulation was so great that even Lei Mu said it was enormous. If she intervened to help herself, it would definitely harm her.
He nodded forcefully, and Ginger Cloud had already stood up.
"Wow!"
The Cauldron of Emptiness hovered above his head, its vast power surging forth. Around Jiang Yun, it created independent spaces one after another.
Although even hiding within space wouldn't allow one to escape a Heavenly Tribulation, the power of emptiness, as a type of force, could at least weaken the might of the tribulation somewhat.
At the same time, on Jiang Yun's body, the Vajra Demon Pattern and the Desolation Pattern also began to appear.
Ginger Cloud naturally wouldn't dare to underestimate this Thunder Tribulation of the Dao Body, so he would face the tribulation in his strongest state.
Just as Jiang Yun was making preparations, outside the area where these light spots existed, Huo Qianye of the Five Elements Dao Sect finally appeared.
Because each cultivator seeks a different path, the form of the Five Heavenly Tribulations they encounter is also unique. Therefore, Huo Qianye did not know that these light points were the Five Heavenly Tribulations.
But, as a peak Tianren Five Tribulations Realm expert, he could naturally clearly feel the terrifying power contained within the light spot. Even he didn't want to touch it lightly, so he had to stop his figure.
"What is this"
After staring at the pinpoint of light for a moment, Huo Qiye shook his head and finally turned his gaze to Jiang Yun, who was surrounded by countless stars.
And looking at Jiang Yun now, Huo Qiye's eyes widened suddenly, and his face was filled with extreme shock. "Rune of Ruin, Vajra Demon Rune, Cauldron of Emptying the Heavens... Who is this person How can he possess the power of nine clans!"
"Boom!"
At that moment, all the golden light points suddenly vibrated together. And within that vibration, a pattern clearly appeared in each light point!
"The lines of fate!"
The first tribulation of the Heavenly Human Realm, the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, for Jiang Yun's Dao Body, has begun!
