Chapter 718: Lu Qian Crossing the Tribulation

Layer upon layer of tribulation clouds gathered in the sky once again, with thunder dragons and electric pythons rolling within the dark clouds.

The formidable power of the Golden Core Celestial Tribulation radiated once more. Even if it came again, the terrifying aura still made disciples instinctively tremble.

But at this moment, more than fear, there was excitement and fervor!

All because a figure clad in a white feather cloak, adorned with five-colored radiance, was slowly rising, directly entering the tribulation clouds.

This time, it’s true! This time, it’s true!

This time, it truly is our Sect Leader, about to cross the Golden Core Celestial Tribulation!

Disciples swarmed out in a mass, huddled together, and looked up to the sky, shouting loudly, extremely excited, completely forgetting the possibility of being accidentally struck by celestial thunder.

All Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Yunshan Sect were also unable to suppress their inner excitement. Having hoped for so long, their Sect Leader was finally going to form his core!

Jiang Qingfeng intently fixed his gaze on Lu Qian, his face tense, constantly offering blessings. Jiang Baitao gently comforted from the side, “It’s alright, Sect Leader Senior Brother’s cultivation is extraordinary, the celestial tribulation can’t harm him…”

But seeing her tightly clenched hands revealed just how nervous she truly was inside.

Lian Yujiao also poked his head out from the water pool, out of consideration for his own little life, he could only pray that the celestial thunder wouldn’t strike Lu Qian dead.

Wait, if the heavens were kind enough to strike Lu Qian to the point of paralysis, leaving him unconscious, injured but not dead, then wouldn’t Jade Flood Dragon Little Immortal be free?

Alas, however, Lu Qian isn’t that bad of a person, probably wouldn’t deserve such a fate. Just let him lie in bed for a few years, so he doesn’t keep ordering me around all day long…

Subordinate sect’s Foundation Establishment cultivators had already arrived, joining the Yunshan Sect’s people, looking up to Lu Qian’s figure flying higher, feeling different emotions in their hearts.

Zhou Chao, bringing a newly Foundation Established dual spiritual roots talent from his family here, prayed that Lu Qian would successfully verify the Golden Core and encouraged the younger generation to keep striving, taking Sect Leader Lu as a model.

“You have the same dual spiritual roots as Sect Leader Lu! Much of the Zhou family’s future depends on you.”

Zhuang Hui stood there quietly, his demeanor much more steady now, though his face showed no expression.

For some reason, he suddenly thought, if his father were still alive, he would probably also be undergoing his tribulation.

When news came that Wu Yan successfully crossed her tribulation to verify her Golden Core, he finally understood why Zhuang Qing suddenly straightened out and, at the cost of his true spirit dissipating, decided to switch allegiance to Yunshan.

So, this is your hardship?

Now that the strength of the Yunshan sect is growing, and its status is rising, the Spirit Talisman Sect’s development is also on the right track, affiliating with Yunshan was indeed the right decision. But thinking of his father Zhuang Qing, who sacrificed his life for this, Zhuang Hui still felt an immense sadness.

To keep becoming stronger, keep advancing, only then can fate be held in one’s own hands.

Meanwhile, Qin Zhiyi’s heart was conflicted. The strength of the Shouzhuo Sect is steadily recovering, and he is quite satisfied with the current state. But as the gap with Yunshan Sect keeps widening, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of envy amidst admiration.

When can my Shouzhuo Sect achieve such glory?

As for Xianyou Sect, Two Qi Sect, and Illusion Dream Temple, being subordinate sects of Yunshan from the beginning, they now hold even more respect and sincerely submit to it.

In the morning, Wu Yan crossed her tribulation; in the afternoon, Lu Qian’s turn came. In a single day, the Yunshan sect welcomed two Golden Core Celestial Tribulations!

Such an event has never occurred in the history of Cangzhou. Scouts around Minglong Mountain were struck dumb in amazement, hastily conveying the news.

Oh heavens, why are all the good things happening to the Yunshan Sect!

Just wondering, will Lu Qian be able to successfully cross his tribulation? If, within a single day, within one sect, two new Golden Core Masters are added, it would be a rare and beautiful event, one that would surely be remembered by future generations.

At this time, to the south and east, there was a Golden Core Escape Light heading towards Minglong Mountain, it was Zhenren Cangfeng and Ye Xiao coming to extend their congratulations upon hearing Wu Yan verified her Golden Core, after exchanging news.

During their flight, they received messages of Lu Qian’s Golden Core tribulation, and were shocked. Especially Ye Xiao, who momentarily halted in midair, only resuming his journey towards Minglong Mountain after his subordinate’s reminder.

This time, let me witness it with my own eyes…

Dark clouds wrapped in electricity, thunder seas spanning the sky, tribulation clouds continuously gathered and condensed, and then under the anxious and earnest gaze of the masses, divided into fivefold layers, seemingly slow yet swift.

It’s a Fivefold Thunder Tribulation!

At this moment, who knows how many people were cheering in joy, and how many were beating their chests and stamping their feet.

Lu Qian naturally breathed a slight sigh of relief, to enjoy the same treatment as Guh Niqiang, he was already satisfied.

Yet upon reflection, despite the ups and downs, having experienced numerous great tribulations while pursuing the Dao over the decades, he often turned crises into opportunities. Leading the Yunshan Sect through tough beginnings to flourish greatly, naturally due to the hard work and wisdom of himself and his companions, each excelling in their strengths, but also couldn’t have succeeded without the favor of heaven and blessings of the forefathers.

Thus, this outcome does indeed reflect his favorable fortune; thus, having a fivefold celestial tribulation today is only right.

As the tribulation clouds divided, thunder exploded, and the first celestial tribulation was imminent, Lu Qian discarded miscellaneous thoughts, invigorated himself, and with the blessings from below, his figure flashed and plunged into the tribulation clouds.

This is akin to drawing a gourd from a model, entering the tribulation cloud to launch an attack, to weaken the power of the first celestial tribulation.

An array map shaped like a jade tablet hovered in front, as five token array bases shot outward. With a flash of five-colored light, the array realm immediately unfolded. As spiritual power surged, the spiritual qi of gold, wood, earth, fire burst forth from four array bases. In combining and withdrawing, heat waves surged wantonly, the thunder clouds trembled violently, a resounding cry pierced the firmament, a fiery yet dreamlike figure pierced through the thick clouds.
