Chapter 42: Ch 42: Immortal Ascension Realm
After a few days, inside a cave yang feng opened his eyes and looked at the soul warming lotus and a jade bottle in front of him.
The bottle has absorbed all the spiritual energy gathered by the lotus. He revealed a smile and stood up, "now that it's done. Time for the main part."
He grabbed the bottle, putting it inside his inventory and reaching out his hand to grab the lotus. Just as his hand touched the still present translucent barrier around it, the lotus simply disappeared.
He knew that it didn't disappear, but entered his mind and he even felt it. He also felt a surge of energy from it that was trying to increase his spiritual power and realm.
But as he had reached the peak of True Element Realm in the past few days and was only a step away from the immortal ascension realm, he had to guide the energy to open is knowledge sea.
When the lotus entered his body and released that energy surge, his divine sense had truly awakened. Before although he had a really strong preception and virtualization, it still didn't reach the level of a divine sense.
Feeling that the breakthrough was just a step away, he focused and circulated his Qi cultivation scripture and also absorbed the fourth layer of the Foundation Rejuvenation Nirvana Pill that was stored inside his dantian.
When he did this the surge of Qi from it was flowed across his entire body and meridians. He then employed his body Cultivation technique with his Qi cultivation scripture for the next step he was about to perform.
He then guided both the spiritual energy from the lotus towards his Niwan aperture and the Qi from the pill towards 7 different points within his body.
As he gathered the Qi at seven different places, employing his divine sense he felt a type of blockage or gates on these seven positions. These points were the 7 Chakra Points of his body.
He had thought about this when he was making his body cultivation system. He then concentrated and started opening the 'gates' that he felt.
The first to open was the 'Root Chakra', this chakra was located at the base of his spine. When he opened this chakra he felt a significant increase in his physical strength and he felt like he had just broken through Mid-tier 4 in his body cultivation.
The second was the 'Sacrel Chakra' which was located just below his navel. When he opened it, he again felt a little increase in his body strength, though not enough for his to breakthrough.
He also felt that his Qi was getting more condensed then it was before and he knew that this chakra was connected to his sexual organ, so with the opening of this chakra his lust and performance and performance in bed would also increase.
The third was the 'Solar Plexus Chakra' which was located between his abdominal, just above his stomach. Once he opened it, he felt that his heart was somehow strengthened and was further purifying his blood, as this chakra was also connected to the heart.
The next to open was the 'Heart Chakra'. When it was opened he that whatever uncomfortable feelings he felt about yang kai ease up. '*feuu* it feels as if a burden has been lifted from my shoulders.'
The next was the 'Throat Chakra'. With this chakra he felt as if his sense of speech just got free from some kind of restriction.
He then focused at the next chakra, 'Third Eye Chakra'. Just as he opened this chakra, he felt an explosion go off inside his mind which happened because of his Niwan aperture being opened. When he focused he saw his knowledge sea forming, but the difference was that when it formed, it didn't stop at the level he expected and continued to grow.
This happened because of the third eye chakra, as this chakra was related to a person's spiritualality. He saw as his knowledge sea grew with the Soul Warming Lotus taking root inside it.
After a moment he felt the strength of his knowledge sea and divine sense, and he concluded that his soul cultivation was comparable to that of Peak immortal ascension realm cultivators.
With that done, he shifted the remaining energy to the last remaining chakra, 'Crown Chakra'. It took a few moments before it opened. Just as it opened he felt a certain force emitting from himself.
This force was something he couldn't quite define. It felt like he knew what it was but at the same time he didn't. After debating on it for a second, he decided to it later.
So he put the thought of testing it at the back of his mind and quickly stood up and rushed outside the cave.
....
Meng wu ya looked at the clouds forming in the sky while he was looking after Xia Ning cheng.
"This... Is someone about to breakthrough?" This was the first thing that came to his mind when he saw the dark clouds slowly taking form.
When he thought of this, the image of yang feng came to his mind. 'looks like the kid was fortunate enough... But judging from how much power the tribulation has, it won't be easy for him.'
He then focused his divine sense towards directly below the center of the origin of the clouds. There he saw a figure that rushed outside of a cave and looked towards the sky.
....
Yang feng who had just came out of the cave looked towards the sky. He saw dark thunder clouds forming in the sky right above him and those clouds seem to be expanding with each passing second.
It took a few minutes for it to stop expanding. But then he wasn't able to even look where the clouds extended to. But Meng wu ya who was observing with his divine sense could see, and he was somewhat frightened by the size of the clouds.
By the time they stopped extending, the clouds were covering the entire island and went even went a little beyond it. According to meng wu ya, even an average cultivator breaking through the Transendant realm might not be given this powerful of a Heavenly Tribulation.
Yang feng didn't knew the extent of his tribulation, nor did he really care. He had already thought of a way to deal with the thunder tribulation.
A few seconds after the clouds stopped expanding, an unending surge of thunder started to gather in the clouds.
If someone who saw this scene, they would see a lone figure that stood in a forest looking at the sky with resolve and determination in his eyes, with the sky being covered in thunder clouds as if the heaven were angry at the foolish mortal and was about to deliver it's punishment on that mortal.
As if challenging the heavens themselves, the lone figure of the youth excalmed to the heavens while opening his arms as if daring the heaven to strike him, "Come."
Although the youth said it in a low tone his voice echoed in the surroundings and seem to hold a power that should not be underestimated. The heaven seeing the foolish mortal challenge, it grew angry and started the punishment of the mortal.
As the first thunder fell from the clouds and hit yang feng's body. He looked unfazed with the strike and started to circulate his body tempering technique.
When he activated the technique, the thunder that entered his body and the thunder that couldn't enter his body started to enter and flow in a certain rhythm inside his body.
While the heavens didn't stop after the first strike and sent down the next thunder strike with only a gap of a second. But the result was the same as the previous one.
After the fourth strike yang feng felt that the process was too slow, so he looked at the sky and shouted, "is this all that you can do!". Meng wu ya who also heard his shout with his divine sense nearly sprew out blood.
It has to be known that even a 3rd stage immortal ascension realm cultivator would not be able to handle the third strike without suffering a little. But he was instead shouting at the heavens to increase the power of the tribulation.
The result of the shout was as yang feng had expected. The next strike that came was 10 times stronger then the last few combined. Unfortunately, even this strike was not able to do anything to him, except for a few light burns on his skin.
Yang feng then ignored the thunder tribulation and used his divine sense to look inside himself. He saw the thunder that was absorbed into his body and was refining his bone marrow, veins, skin, muscles, and viscera.
He felt all parts of his body being tempered at a terrifying speed, he estimated that by the time the thunder tribulation ended, his body cultivation would have reached at least Peak Tier 4.
When he opened his eyes, he noticed that the clouds above him seem to be compressing. After five seconds, the clouds reduced in size but the power of the thunder tribulation increased by a few notches.
After some calculation, he knew that this would be the last strike that he would have to face, 'with this much power... I might breakthrough to the 5th tier directly.' The thunder gathered into the center of the clouds for a few more seconds and suddenly he saw a thick bolt of thunder leaving the clouds.
As the strike hit him, he grunted a little but continued to circulate his body tempering technique. The power of the strike was so great that both his skin and muscles were burned. His estimate was that the power of that last strike neared the full power attack of a high stages immortal ascension realm cultivator.
As he continued to resolve and absorb the lightning power that entered his body. He felt a mysterious energy helping his body in recovering, along with a large amount of Qi entering his dantian. This was the baptism after successfully crossing the heavenly tribulation.
Once he felt this, he took out more than a thousand spirit stones and the corpse of the 6th tier eagle from his inventory. The spirit stones immediately shattered and the Qi in them started to enter his body, while he pushed his body tempering technique to the fullest and started absorbing all the vitality from the body of the eagle.
This went on for an hour, after which yang feng slowly opened his eyes. He then saw that he was now naked as his clothes were burned from the thunder tribulation earlier. He retrieved a set of clothes from his inventory and started wearing them.
While he was wearing his clothes he was also looking at the changes he felt in his body. His skin and muscles had become more dense and powerful because of the lightening strikes. His bone marrow and veins were also more powerful and he could feel his potent blood flowing throughout his entire body. Also it seems that his little brother grew a little.
His Chakra points had also helped him a lot in increasing his body's overall power. His Qi was even more solidified, but much to his chagrin his Qi still didn't fully turn into liquid state.
'From the change I think when I breakthrough to the Transendant realm all of my Qi should change into liquid state.' he then turned to his knowledge sea.
When he entered, he saw a vast sea. He then turned to a certain direction and saw a five colored lotus island floating just above the sea. 'Well now that I have the soul warming lotus, I should quickly deal with the other things and leave this world.'
When he was about to exit his knowledge sea, he felt something that brought a look of confusion to his face. He then focused on this feeling and tried to summon something.
The next moment a he saw a palace suddenly manifest inside his knowledge sea, all the while he saw the palace with a hint of confusion and excitement.
