Chapter 93

"What level of treasure is being born this time?" The five-tailed fox demon sensed the terrifying thunder tribulation, wondering in her heart, "To actually have to cross such a terrifying tribulation?"

So she got cold feet again and took two steps back away from the tribulation clouds...

"After all, I'm a level five demon beast. Even if I can't get the treasure, I should at least be able to escape!" She told herself as she stood still again.

The fox demon kept reassuring herself, and ultimately stayed.

Electricity flowed wildly in her body, bringing a numb and tingling sensation that was rather comfortable. Qin Ran could clearly sense that the quality of his physical body had improved by a large margin, and he couldn't help letting out a moan of pleasure.

Looking down at Chasing the Wind, the little guy had stood up now with the blood-colored tribulation lightning still flowing over his body, but it was clearly decreasing bit by bit as he strived to absorb the tribulation lightning.

"It's a tribulation, but also an opportunity," he sighed. "If he can survive this heavenly tribulation, Chasing the Wind has the chance to advance to an eighth-rank demon beast."

Without looking at Chasing the Wind any further, Qin Ran raised his head to look up. The tribulation clouds in the sky were still rolling and becoming even thicker.

"How many bolts will there be in the next wave?" He wondered to himself, then his gaze became firm. "No matter how many, let's just stick to the plan!"

He raised his hand in a gesture, using a water flow to roll up the universe pouch on the messy rocks on the ground. He took out materials like thunderstruck wood, tribulation-dispelling flowers, spirit lightning stones, and more, then circulated his magic power to wrap up each material.This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.

The fundamental magic art he cultivated was the Water Flower Heart Sutra, a water-type pill concoction art, which allowed him to refine materials with the art.

"What is he doing?" asked the peerless beauty.

The handsome man shook his head. "I don't know either, I can't really understand."

"This guy sure has a lot of weird ideas!" the peerless beauty sighed.

The tribulation lightning was becoming stronger, and the intervals in between were also getting longer, as if some existence in the dark was giving the cultivators crossing tribulation a chance to recuperate, but it also seemed to need more time to give birth to an even stronger tribulation lightning.

The magic power circulating in his body was now at the Golden Core stage, and the speed of extracting the essence of materials had improved by leaps and bounds compared to before. Adding to Qin Ran's highly profound pill concoction techniques, before the rumbling sounds of the next wave of tribulation lightning arrived, Qin Ran had already finished refining the materials.

Then, he was seen using his magic power to roll up the materials, mixing them with his magic power in a certain pattern, condensing them into rough pills, then spreading out the rough pills above his head like a pancake.

Looking up at the spread-out rough pills, his hands swiftly formed seals as he imprinted one restriction after another into them. In the blink of an eye, the rough pills were flickering with invisible light.

Qin Ran was well-versed in spell formations, so he also understood restrictions. Spell formations and restrictions had similarities. To put it simply, restrictions were mini spell formations.

Therefore, compared to Gu Yuan Yi who didn't understand spell formations, Qin Ran was more likely to concoct...tribulation lightning pills!

That's right, what Qin Ran was doing now was concocting tribulation lightning pills, using the pills to seal the tribulation lightning after it formed.

This was the second thing Qin Ran wanted to do after absorbing the tribulation lightning to temper his body. Using the tribulation lightning to concoct pills - tribulation lightning pills.

The tribulation clouds roiled as electric snakes fell down...

"Twelve bolts!"

Qin Ran quickly counted and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the number of tribulation lightnings wasn't increasing exponentially. If this wave had twenty seven bolts of tribulation lightning, he could just give up and prepare for the afterlife!

The tribulation lightning was extremely fast. As soon as they came out from the tribulation clouds above, they struck the rough pills below.

Even though it wasn't twenty seven bolts but twelve bolts, Qin Ran still couldn't underestimate them. He operated his magic power at full force, sending it gushing out to support the rough pills and withstand the power of the tribulation lightning in order to seal it.

To seal the tribulation lightning, he first had to be able to endure its might.

After crossing the eighth wave, even Qin Ran who was at the Golden Core stage was already panting heavily.

He felt like every single cell in his body was trembling, seeming like they would shatter and dissolve away the next moment.

The golden core in his dantian was spinning rapidly, but there was nothing inside the dantian. He didn't have any magic power left at all...he was also unable to operate magic power anymore because of his fleshy body's limitations.

It was like he had reached the end of his tether!

In the sky, the blood-colored sky no longer showed any traces of black or tribulation clouds.

The entire sky was full of thickly rolling bloody tribulation thunder, forming a sea of bloody thunder tribulation!

Qin Ran sensed a might from heaven pressing down from above, pressing down until his legs turned soft and he felt fear arising in his heart!

"Could it be...this world really has an old man of Heaven? Truly has the will of Heavenly Dao?" This absurd thought couldn't help but float up in his mind.

Ah...

He quickly drove away this thought.

Whether it existed or not, he still had to cross this last wave of tribulation lightning.

The time between the eighth and ninth wave was especially long, seemingly reminding the cultivators below that this time's tribulation was out of the ordinary and would be terrifying beyond imagination.

Qin Ran felt like he was waiting for death. He forcefully stayed calm and smiled at Chasing the Wind on the ground. "Don't be scared, it's the last wave of tribulation lightning. We can return home immediately afterwards."

Hearing they could return home, Chasing the Wind lifted his head and howled twice at Qin Ran.

Silly child Chasing the Wind...

Qin Ran truly smiled a little. He forcefully operated his arts, using the magic power that had just recovered, to take out his life magic treasure from beside his golden core in the qi sea.

The life magic treasure of sword cultivators is usually swords...

So what is the life magic treasure of alchemists?

Normally, it would be furnaces, pill refining furnaces.

But Qin Ran didn't like furnaces, so his life magic treasure was a cauldron, a pill refining cauldron!

He lifted what he had named the Nine Provinces Cauldron above his head, waiting for the final thunderbolt to fall.

"Boom, boom..."

Deafening thunder roared, and Qin Ran clearly heard a mocking tone within it. He couldn't help but look up at the sky...

He saw that the entire sky had pressed down.

The ninth thunderbolt was not many bolts, it was only one, one containing all the thunder within the tribulation clouds, one ten-zhang wide thunder pillar!

"Chasing the Wind!" Qin Ran cried out in despair, lowering his head.

"Boom..."

The thunder pillar fell!
