Chapter 31 - Breakthrough Body Forging, Heavenly Tribulation Comes!

Chapter 31: Breakthrough Body Forging, Heavenly Tribulation Comes!“”

Finally, after digesting all the rewards, Gu Liuyun’s heart was filled with excitement. He turned to look at Murong Qianxue and saw that she had also synchronized her comprehension of the inheritance, attempting to wield the Azure Serenity sword.

Her sword energy was sharp at this moment, and her demeanor had noticeably changed. Stepping on the blue spirit sword under her feet, with her blue hair floating and her white clothes fluttering, combined with her cold and enchanting beauty, she looked like an otherworldly and captivating figure.

Gu Liuyun watched with envy and decided to try the newly learned body technique, the “Tai Pan Sword Control Art.” He squeezed the sword formula, and the aura flowed around his body. However, as he attempted to control the Crimson Heart sword, a sudden tremor from his pantheon made him lose balance and fall to the ground.

“Junior brother?!” Murong Qianxue exclaimed in alarm and rushed to Gu Liuyun’s side, displaying concern and panic in her eyes.

The Supreme Elder was also surprised and quickly approached, placing his hand on Gu Liuyun’s pantheon.

“Senior Elder, what’s wrong with my junior brother?” Murong Qianxue asked anxiously.

The Supreme Elder furrowed his brows but, as he examined Gu Liuyun’s internal condition with his spiritual power, he couldn’t help but wear a bemused expression.

“This kid, hehe…”

Seeing this, Murong Qianxue was about to ask again when she suddenly noticed Gu Liuyun sitting cross-legged, assuming a posture resembling a pentagram with his face toward the sky.

“This… What’s happening?”

The Supreme Elder chuckled, “No need to worry. This child has extraordinary talent. After comprehending the swordsmanship technique, he’s caused his pantheon to resonate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He’s about to break through.”

“Breakthrough?” Murong Qianxue was speechless. It had only been a few days since his last breakthrough.

Regardless of her thoughts, Gu Liuyun continued to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy into his pantheon, refining and purifying it. However, now he had three major professions: Dan Cultivation, Dharma Cultivation, and Sword Cultivation, requiring a significant amount of spiritual energy. The surrounding spiritual energy began to exceed the supply.

While astonished, the Supreme Elder saw this and marveled at Gu Liuyun’s incredible talent.

“Oh no, this kid’s talent is astonishing. My temporary constructed realm aura isn’t enough; it may not support his breakthrough to the body-refining realm.”

Hearing this, Murong Qianxue took out all the spirit stones from her Nascent Ring and placed them beside Gu Liuyun. However, her reserves were depleted, and Gu Liuyun quickly absorbed the remaining spirit stones.

“Elder Supreme, can you immediately send us out of the secret realm?”

The Supreme Elder shook his head and said, “No, at this moment, his spiritual consciousness is entirely focused on the breakthrough. If he’s disturbed by teleportation, he might go mad.”

“Then is his breakthrough destined to fail?” Murong Qianxue asked, looking worriedly at Gu Liuyun, wanting to help but feeling powerless.

The Supreme Elder stroked his beard and said, “No worries. It’s just the body-refining realm. Even if the breakthrough fails, it will not have much impact. He can rest for a while and continue the breakthrough.”

Murong Qianxue could only nod in resignation. However, just when they both thought Gu Liuyun’s breakthrough was doomed to fail, they saw him suddenly take out a pill from his Nascent Ring and swallow it.

Seeing this, both of them were surprised. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

“Elder Supreme, what did he just eat?”

“It seems to be… a Casting Body Pill…”

The two were left speechless for a moment. After a while, the Supreme Elder suddenly smiled.

“Hehe, this kid made us worry for no reason.”

Gu Liuyun’s body suddenly emitted a radiant treasure light as the Supreme Elder’s words finished. This was a sign of breaking through the body-refining realm!

At the same time, Gu Liuyun heard a game notification sound in his ear.

[Ding! Congratulations on breaking through to the early stage of body training, acquired root bones +60, acquired spiritual resources +30!].

Gu Liuyun let out a sigh of relief and was delighted that merely breaking through a body-forging state had significantly increased his bone attributes. He knew, though, that this was the effect of the Casting Pill and that it would return to normal after the next breakthrough.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at Murong Qianxue and the Supreme Elder with a slight smile, saying, “I’m unharmed…”

However, another notification sound interrupted him again before he could finish his sentence.

[Ding! The cultivation base is raised to the body-forging state, triggering the effect of “Heavenly Tribulation Body·Envied by Heaven”!].[Heavenly Tribulation is coming!].

Gu Liuyun exclaimed, his eyes widening suddenly, almost forgetting about the situation. He quickly turned to the Supreme Elder and urged, “Supreme Elder, please teleport me out of this secret realm immediately! Preferably to a remote location!”

The Supreme Elder, initially puzzled, sensed the urgency in Gu Liuyun’s expression and the impending danger. Without hesitation, he activated the teleportation. The three of them instantly found themselves back at Tiger Cliff. Gu Liuyun wasted no time, immediately taking off on his sword towards a distant location.

“Brother!” Murong Qianxue tried to follow but was held back by the Supreme Elder.

Gu Liuyun’s voice echoed from afar, warning them, “Stay away from me, don’t come closer!”

Confused and worried, Murong Qianxue asked the Supreme Elder, “Elder Supreme, what’s happening to him?”

The Supreme Elder furrowed his brows and shook his head. But in the next moment, he wore an expression of disbelief. Murong Qianxue froze as she gazed into the distance. Because at that moment, a pitch-black cloud of calamity had suddenly formed in the sky above Gu Liuyun. Within it, endless thunder raged and shimmered.
