Chapter 374 Jindan Stage, Thunder Tribulation Tempers the Body to Help Lin Fan
Lin Fan and his three companions stood in the center of the Holy Ruins. It was quiet and silent, and the air was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. After going through many tests, they finally arrived at the core area of the Holy Ruins, which was the final trial field for the awakening of the Golden Core.
The sky in the distance was as gloomy as a black curtain, dark clouds rolled in the sky, and lightning flickered in the clouds, as if a huge force was ready to go. The entire Holy Ruins seemed to sense some kind of impending change, and the surrounding spiritual energy became extremely dense, as if it condensed into layers of invisible barriers, surrounding them.
Lin Fan stood in the center of the trial field, his eyes slightly closed, his expression solemn and focused. In his body, the power of the golden elixir was gradually condensing, and the spiritual power in his dantian was surging like a torrent, shaking his body and soul. At the same time, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was also madly pouring into his body, like an invisible tide, leading his spiritual power to an unprecedented peak.
"Lin Fan, you...you are about to break through!" Jiang Shuiling felt the increasingly strong aura around Lin Fan and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Zhong Ling'er covered her mouth, her eyes full of excitement: "Could it be... Lin Fan is going to break through to the Golden Core Stage here?"
Jin Buke stood aside with a deep look in his eyes. The sword in his hand seemed to have sensed Lin Fan's changes and trembled slightly, as if he was expecting something.
At this moment, a huge roar suddenly erupted in the sky, shaking the entire Holy Ruins as if it were trembling. Then, the dark clouds quickly gathered together, as if forming a huge vortex. Thunder rolled in the clouds, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth also became violent, as if the entire world was preparing for Lin Fan's breakthrough.
Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes sparkling with brilliance. He could feel that the power in his body was rapidly expanding, and the embryonic form of the golden elixir had begun to condense. He was only one step away from the golden elixir stage. However, this last step was not so easy to cross.
The strange phenomenon in the sky became more and more obvious, and the lightning gradually condensed into bolts of lightning, as if preparing for Lin Fan's breakthrough. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning tore through the sky like a silver snake and struck Lin Fan directly.
"Thunder Tribulation!" Jiang Shuiling's expression changed and she exclaimed, "This is actually a thunder tribulation!"
Zhong Ling'er clenched her staff and said anxiously, "Lin Fan was about to break through to the Golden Core Stage, but he attracted a thunder tribulation! What should we do? The power of the thunder tribulation is too strong. Can he withstand it?"
Jin Buke frowned, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, but he did not speak. As a cultivator, he knew that thunder tribulation was the only way to break through the golden elixir stage. Only by enduring the baptism of thunder tribulation could one truly condense the supreme golden elixir and enter a new realm.
However, the power of the thunder tribulation is extremely violent. Once you cannot withstand it, you will be destroyed by the thunder and your soul will be annihilated. This is a life-and-death test. If you are not careful, you will die here.
Lin Fan stood under the thunder tribulation, his eyes were like lightning, and there was no fear on his face. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly with a smile, and he murmured in a low voice: "This thunder tribulation... is exactly the power I need."
Thunder roared in the sky, as if accumulating its last bit of strength, ready to strike at any moment to destroy the heavens and the earth. Lin Fan raised his head and looked at the violent thundercloud, his eyes full of determination and confidence. He knew that this thunder tribulation was not only a test of his cultivation, but also a tempering of his mind and body.
"Come on!" Lin Fan shouted in a low voice, and the power of the golden elixir in his body suddenly began to operate. The spiritual power in his dantian surged wildly, producing a wonderful resonance with the power of thunder between heaven and earth.
In an instant, the thunder in the sky poured down like a flood, and a thick bolt of lightning struck Lin Fan with destructive power.
Jiang Shuiling and Zhong Ling'er cried out in surprise and almost rushed to help Lin Fan, but Jin Buke held them back and said in a deep voice: "This is Lin Fan's own test, no one can help him. This thunder tribulation... he must face it alone!"
The lightning, with its destructive aura, instantly struck Lin Fan's body. However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Lin Fan was not destroyed by the lightning, but stood firmly in place, allowing the lightning to rage on his body.
"Lin Fan is actually bearing the power of the thunder tribulation?" Zhong Ling'er was stunned and couldn't believe it.
As the thunder and lightning raged, the spiritual power in Lin Fan's body continued to expand. Every time a thunderbolt hit his body, it would bring severe pain, but he gritted his teeth and persisted, not retreating at all. The power of thunder and lightning not only did not destroy his body, but it continued to temper his tendons, bones and blood vessels, making his body more resilient and strong.
"What a powerful force!" Lin Fan secretly exclaimed in his heart. He felt that the lightning was tempering his body. Every impact of the thunder seemed to make his body stronger and his spiritual power became stronger. The embryonic form of the golden elixir in his body was gradually solidifying under the baptism of the thunder tribulation, and the light was getting brighter and brighter.
The thunder was so violent that it seemed to tear the heaven and earth apart. However, Lin Fan still stood under the thunder. His body was like a rock, so firm that he endured the baptism of thunder.
With each strike of lightning, Lin Fan's strength would increase. In his Dantian, the golden elixir gradually solidified, and spiritual power surged through his body like a tide. The lightning seemed to have injected endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his golden elixir, making the power in his body even more powerful.
Jiang Shuiling stood in the distance, her eyes filled with shock. She whispered, "He...actually used the thunder tribulation to temper his body!"
Zhong Ling'er's eyes also flashed with amazement: "Lin Fan's body is becoming stronger and stronger. His physical body and spiritual power have been sublimated in the thunder tribulation."
Jin Buke said in a deep voice: "He is using the thunder tribulation as a furnace and the power of thunder to forge his own golden elixir! If he can pass it smoothly, his strength will surely make a qualitative leap!"
At this moment, the thunder in the sky suddenly condensed into a huge lightning bolt, like a silver dragon circling in the clouds, with endless pressure, it struck Lin Fan directly. This lightning bolt was several times more powerful than any previous one, as if it was the final judgment between heaven and earth.
Lin Fan raised his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that this would be the last and strongest blow of the thunder tribulation. If he could withstand this blow, he would completely complete the awakening of the golden elixir and enter a new realm.
"Come on!" Lin Fan shouted, and the power of the golden elixir in his body exploded to the extreme, and his aura suddenly surged. In his dantian, the prototype of the golden elixir had completely condensed, emitting a brilliant light, as if it had merged with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"boom!"
Thunder roared in the air, carrying the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, and struck Lin Fan fiercely. The powerful thunder shock wave instantly swept around, and the entire Holy Ruins was shaken by this force.
However, when the light of thunder gradually dissipated, Lin Fan still stood there. His body radiated golden light, and the golden elixir in his body had completely taken shape. Spiritual power surged through his body like a torrent, as if it was endless. His body had been tempered by the thunder tribulation and became extremely tough, like an indestructible source of spiritual power.
Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes, with a gleam of wisdom in them. His spiritual consciousness merged with the heaven and earth at this moment, as if he could sense every change between heaven and earth. He realized that cultivation was not only about pursuing the improvement of strength, but also about living in harmony with all things in heaven and earth.
"I finally broke through." Lin Fan said softly, with a hint of relief and satisfaction in his voice.
At the same time, Jin Buke, Jiang Shuiling, and Zhong Ling'er also felt their own breakthroughs. Their spiritual powers were also sublimated in this trial, especially Jin Buke. The moment his long sword merged with his spiritual power, it actually showed signs of the initial formation of a sword spirit. The long sword trembled slightly, and a faint light appeared on the sword, as if it had its own life.
Jin Buke gripped the sword tightly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "This is... the sword spirit is just beginning to take shape!"
Jiang Shuiling smiled gently: "Each of us has achieved an unprecedented breakthrough in this trial. It seems that this Holy Ruins is indeed a holy place for practitioners."
A trace of deep thought flashed across Lin Fan's eyes: "The Golden Core Stage... is not the end point we imagined, but only the starting point of cultivation. The road ahead is still long."
He looked at the distant sky, and his heart was filled with endless pride. Now, his golden elixir had awakened, and his power had reached a whole new level. However, he knew that the road ahead was not just about becoming stronger, but about how to use this power to protect everything he cherished.
As the golden elixir awakened, Lin Fan's horizons gradually broadened. He seemed to see a wider world ahead, and the true meaning of cultivation gradually became clear in his mind.
