Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan-Chapter 426 - 432: Tribulation Transcendence
Upon hearing Jiang Fengwu's response, everyone's worries slightly diminished, yet they still stared anxiously at the quiet chamber.
As day gave way to night and time trickled by, more and more clanspeople gathered near the cave dwelling, their hearts filled with excitement and concern.
"Enough, hurry back now, lest when the Thunder Tribulation descends, too many people gathered here cause Zhirui's Tribulation Transcendence to fail," Li Shiqing hurriedly began to disperse the dense crowd of kin.
Fortunately, the majority were not fools and, coupled with Li Shiqing's prestige, even though they really wanted to continue watching, they obediently followed his orders.
"Zhixuan, your battle with that Water Devil was exhausting, so go back and rest first, then return later. We'll need your help acting as a protector," Jiang Fengwu urged, pulling Li Zhixuan along.
Li Zhixuan thought it over and agreed, since after all, she was the strongest fighter in the clan, destined to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protector. She nodded and said, "Alright, if anything happens, have Shuo come call me."
Meanwhile, inside the quiet chamber, Li Zhirui was striving to comprehend the laws of the Heavenly Dao so as to sublimate his 'real character' into a Nascent Soul Infant.
Due to his Water-Wood Spiritual Root, Li Zhirui was most familiar with the Water Principle and the Wood Principle. However, these fundamental Laws were still far too advanced for him at this time. He had to settle for understanding some lower-level laws instead.
Of course, if Li Zhirui were unwilling, he could spend a great deal of time on this, but for some reason, a voice in his heart kept telling him to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
Trusting in his own Spirit Sense, Li Zhirui decided not to waste any more time on this. To save time, he directly chose the Purification Principle, which was a fusion of the two fundamental principles.
As Li Zhirui made his choice, other Laws faded away, and a profound Law emerged before him, radiating with pure white Spirit Light and surrounded by numerous dots of faintly visible lights.
He was like a beggar who had never eaten his fill, voraciously indulging in this top-tier feast, not caring whether he was full, only wanting to consume everything he saw.
Fortunately, the Dharma spirit turtle within his Sea of Consciousness, which had been quiet for a long time, noticed something off about Li Zhirui, took a mighty step forward, and let out a sky-piercing howl, awakening him.
"Phew!" Li Zhirui gasped for air, narrowly averting disaster! He had almost completely succumbed to the Laws, verging on becoming an indiscernible part of the Purification Law!
The Spirit Lights he had seen swirling around the Law were the spirits that had lost their way and became entrapped within it over countless years, unable to withstand the Law's allure!
Luckily, Li Zhirui had survived this ordeal, which also made him realize that the Visualization Skill he had learned years ago was not as straightforward as it seemed.
However, now was clearly not the time to dwell on these matters. He immediately cast aside all other thoughts and began to elevate his 'real character' based on his understanding of the Purification Law.
Armed with a wealth of comprehension of the Laws, this step was no longer a challenge, and Li Zhirui smoothly embraced his own Tao Nature.
After the successful sublimation of his 'real character,' the last step in Transforming the Golden Core into a Nascent Soul was to condense it into a Nascent Soul Infancy.
This step was not very difficult; it only required a large amount of Spiritual Energy and careful, cautious 'construction' of the Nascent Soul.
Boom!
Suddenly, Spiritual Energy from all directions converged towards this place, creating a spectacle of brilliant colors. The spiritual energy of Wanxian Island was all being drawn towards Li Zhirui in the quiet chamber.
A spiritual energy storm even developed nearby, causing Jiang Fengwu and others, unprepared for this sudden event, to totter and struggle to stay on their feet.
"This is..."
Li Shiqing and the others exchanged glances, awed by the unexpected scene before them.
But his face immediately showed joy, although they did not know the process of forming a Nascent Soul, they understood that this absorption of spiritual energy indicated Li Zhirui had not encountered any problem, but was instead steadily advancing forward.
However, what they did not know was that Li Zhirui had fallen into a dilemma, which was that the spiritual energy of Wanxian Island was somewhat insufficient!
Even though there were two third-order Spirit Veins and several second-order Spirit Veins in the clan territory, the amount of spiritual energy required for forming a Nascent Soul was enormous.
But as the first in his family to make a breakthrough to Nascent Soul, Li Zhirui was unaware of this, thinking the family's spiritual energy was already sufficient.
Fortunately, Li Zhirui had a large number of Spirit Pills, Spirit Fruits, and Spirit Stones in his hands. With a large influx of Spiritual Objects, streams of pure spiritual energy entered his body and were absorbed by his Dantian, thus satisfying his horrifyingly intense craving.
At this time, in Li Zhirui's Dantian, a three-inch-tall Nascent Soul Infant had already appeared, with his Life-bound Magical Treasure, Thousand Spirits, above his head.

However, since he had not yet undergone the Heavenly Tribulation, the Nascent Soul looked like a mere illusory image, not real at all.
Li Zhirui was in an extremely good state at the moment and did not hesitate to provoke the Heavenly Tribulation!
Boom—
The Heavenly Dao instantly responded, and in a moment, the wind soared, and storms rose as dark clouds swarmed in, with numerous bolts of lightning appearing and roaring within them.
"Zhirui is undergoing the Tribulation Transcendence already?!" Li Shiqing was stunned for a moment, then yelled urgently, "Everyone, stay more than ten miles away from the meditation chamber!"
"Fengwu, take down the Formation!"
Thunder Tribulation could only be undergone alone, without the help of external objects, and this was one of the reasons why Golden Cores and Nascent Souls were so rare.
Boom!
But in a brief moment, the first Tribulation Thunder struck down.
The vast amount of energy accumulated in the Tribulation clouds seemed to find an outlet, and immediately following, two more bolts of Tribulation Thunder fell.
Three bolts of Tribulation Thunder, filled with destructive and annihilative power, crashed down towards Li Zhirui. Their terrifying might made Li Shiqing and the others turn pale with concern, their eyes filled with worry as they looked towards Li Zhirui at the eye of the Tribulation.
Li Zhirui's expression was extremely solemn; he had not anticipated he would have to face three bolts of Tribulation Thunder all at once. But with no way to retreat, as he was forced to act, there was simply no turning back for him.
Because behind him was an abyss, even a single small step back would result in him shattering to pieces, so he could only grit his teeth and fiercely endure.
Water-Wood Dragons soared upwards, followed by countless vines and huge trees, forming a great canopy. Below the canopy were layers of deep, dark blue water screens.
After setting up all this, Li Zhirui hastily took out a Spirit Revitalizing Pill from his storage ring, desperately replenishing his mana.
The soaring dragons, in front of the Tribulation Thunder, were like fragile glass, shattering upon contact, but that was not Li Zhirui's intention.
Boom boom boom!
A series of continuous explosions echoed in the sky. The dragons exploded on their own before even touching the Tribulation Thunder, hoping to weaken its power.
