Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 1710 - 922: Refining the Thunder Tribulation Crystal, Strange Encounter at the Lake Bottom

Burial Immortal Ruins, Jixian Island.

More than half of Ruins Heaven later, the exhausted Immortal Ruins Guests flew out from the depths of the pit one after another.

Zhao Sheng distributed rewards to everyone before sending them all away.

After the last Late-stage Returning to Void Immortal Ruins Guest left, Zhao Sheng’s expression sank slightly, and he suddenly flashed into the pit.

After several days of continuous digging, this pit located beneath the Rift Valley had reached a depth of a thousand zhang, with a diameter of a zhang, and was covered with numerous traces of chiseling.

In an instant, Zhao Sheng arrived at the bottom of the pit, where the light was very dim, but the surrounding ice walls were increasingly clear and transparent, revealing many broken corpses and magical treasure fragments.

Strangely, it wasn’t cold here; instead, it felt somewhat warm.

Zhao Sheng looked down and saw a faint white light through the thick ice layer. The white light seemed to come from a very deep place and extended infinitely in all directions, exceeding the visible range.

Zhao Sheng’s heart moved slightly, and his will heart light instantly condensed into a line, quickly extending downward.

Hm!

A breath later, he suddenly groaned softly, showing a trace of pain on his face.

He had accidentally suffered a loss just now; he hadn’t expected that layer of white light to be so formidable. As soon as his will heart light touched it, it was instantly frozen by an indescribable coldness.

If he hadn’t reacted quickly, that unimaginable coldness would have spread along the heart light to himself, with unimaginable consequences!

Zhao Sheng retracted his will heart light and gently lifted his right foot, then stomped downward.

With a loud rumbling sound, the pit suddenly shook violently, and the ground collapsed as if hit by some unimaginable impact.

With just the force of a stomp, the pit extended nearly a hundred zhang downwards, and along the way, the ice layer was completely shattered into powder.

A breath later, Zhao Sheng arrived again at the bottom of the pit.

At this point, a bronze ancient mirror suddenly flew out from his sleeve and quickly fell onto the mountain of ice remnants.

The next moment, the mirror surface suddenly flashed with a trace of "ripples," and then the ice pile below disappeared instantly.

Buzz!

The bronze ancient mirror emitted a joyful buzzing sound and then plunged into the ice layer.

In the next instant, the ice layer suddenly cracked swiftly and then collapsed.

The pit rapidly extended downward once more, with the Central Earth Mirror devouring the surrounding ice crystals like a greedy Taotie.

An hour later, the pit extended another thirteen hundred zhang downward.

At this time, Tu Zha had almost exhausted his Primordial Yang Power, and his main body, the ancient mirror, wobbled as it flew back to the master’s side, slowly burrowing into the large sleeve.

Zhao Sheng quickly arrived at the bottom, looking down at the ice layer, now the white light was clearly visible, vast and boundless like an endless ocean.

Crunch, crunch...

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the surroundings.

Zhao Sheng suddenly looked around and was surprised to find that the surrounding ice walls were rapidly condensing layer upon layer of thin ice.

The ice layer grew extremely swiftly, instantly condensing into a new ice layer one foot thick.

In less than ten breaths, the pit originally more than one zhang wide had shrunk to six or seven feet, while the ice layer continued to grow without slowing.

Surprised, Zhao Sheng exerted his feet, suddenly shattering the encroaching ice layer.

Seeing this, he suddenly realized that the digging method was infeasible and must think of another approach.

With this realization, Zhao Sheng soared into the air, promptly leaving this underground pit.

Soon after he departed, the pit beneath the Rift Valley was filled with ice crystals, and the previous traces of chiseling quickly disappeared completely.

...

While the ice digging on Jixian Island was failing, the Five Elements Cave Heaven was gradually reaching a favorable stage.

With Three Zhas traveling outside, Zhao Sheng undoubtedly saved countless energies.

After refining Chaos Divine Blood, he discarded all distractions, focusing entirely on comprehending the Tao True Text.

With his current realm and Daoist skills, understanding the Tao True Text was not difficult; the challenge lay in perfectly integrating it into the Cave Heaven Law.

Initially comprehending a single Tao True Text took him only a few days on average, but fully understanding the "Tao and Principles" of the text required a significantly longer time.

For this, he devised a clever plan, creating a spell for each True Text, or sometimes a cultivation technique, or a divine skill.

The purpose of this was naturally to leverage the power of all beings to quickly comprehend the principles of the Tao True Text.

Despite the occasional deficiencies or flaws in these divine skills, spells, or techniques, they undoubtedly possessed enormous potential.

In fact, a cultivation technique or divine skill created by a Great Power in the Unification Realm might appear to low-level cultivators as a coveted Divine Skill Treasure Book.

...

Rumble, rumble...

A series of muffled thunders came from the sky, and countless pitch-black tribulation clouds appeared out of thin air, instantly covering an area of several hundred miles.

The tribulation clouds were dense, with lightning and thunder sporadically, an indescribable terrifying aura permeating the surroundings, shocking countless lives below.

At this moment, below, among the towering mountains, a series of green light pillars suddenly rose, thirty-six of them in total, constructing a continuously dynamic Fourth-tier Array.

Right in the center of the great array, standing proudly, was the protagonist of this tribulation crossing, Zhao Dianli!

This man, after centuries of cultivation, finally reached the Nascent Soul Perfect Realm. Today, with his cultivation perfect, he chose this auspicious day to cross the tribulation and break through.

Boom!

After a thunderous roar that echoed through the clouds, several arm-thick scarlet thunders descended from the sky, striking towards Zhao Dianli below.
