Don't let Yu Ding take on any more disciples.

Chapter 312 It's too noisy, I can't hear you.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Manjushri still can't let me go!" Yu Ding said softly.

boom!
Almost at that instant, the heavenly tribulation erupted, and it was so violent that it was unbelievable.

Endless thunder and lightning descended like a sea of ​​lightning, their dazzling light engulfing the jade cauldron and the surrounding world.

"I can't let you go..." Manjushri Bodhisattva, with a dark face, rushed over quickly and left even faster.

Without pausing for a moment, he turned around and transformed into a golden light, speeding away into the distance as if he had encountered a plague god, not wanting to be touched in the slightest.

As a powerful being, he had already survived the Golden Immortal Tribulation, but if he were to get involved now, he would easily be regarded as an accomplice of the Tribulation Transcender and undergo the tribulation together with it. With his current cultivation level, who knows what kind of Golden Immortal Tribulation he would attract.

only……

As Manjushri Bodhisattva was flying away, he couldn't help but look back. He was stunned by what he saw and slowly stopped, muttering, "Is this... the Golden Immortal Tribulation?"

Behind them, the tribulation clouds stretched for thousands of miles in circumference, and the terrifying lightning tribulation directly engulfed the heavens and earth, as if a sea of ​​lightning had appeared there.

"Wait, this heavenly tribulation seems to be..." Just as he was sighing, Manjushri Bodhisattva suddenly narrowed his eyes, then his expression changed drastically. He didn't care about anything else, turned around and ran without looking back, getting faster and faster, and constantly tearing through the void with his great power.

Because the thunder there was still fierce, but the difference was that the sea of ​​thunder was approaching him at an astonishing speed.

"Hiss... Since Brother Manjushri is reluctant to part with me, then let's come together..."

During the tribulation, even though Yu Ding felt as if he was about to be shattered, his tribulation to become an immortal was more ferocious than others, comparable to the tribulations of ancient saints. Yu Ding predicted that his tribulation to become a golden immortal would not be easy.

But the intensity at this moment still exceeded Yu Ding's expectations. The lightning seemed to be peeling away his skin and refining his bones, and the pain made even him red-eyed.

As for chasing after Manjushri... he originally still thought of their fellow disciples and only wanted to scare his senior brother away, without wanting to do anything else.

However, seeing that the other party had stopped halfway through the race and wanted to stand by and watch the show, he couldn't stand it anymore.

As for whether it would involve the other party in the heavenly tribulation... Yu Ding estimated that nothing would happen to him. If he couldn't even survive this, how could he have the face to call himself a disciple of a saint?

At this moment, although Yu Ding did not use the supernatural power of leaping across the ground with golden light, he used another method.

He was like a roc, his body light and agile as he leaped up, soaring across the sky, covering tens of thousands of miles in a single bound—his speed was simply too fast.

This is the divine power of the Heavenly Roc Ladder Cloud Leap that he developed after seeing Xiao Fei transform into a roc and soar ninety thousand miles into the sky.

In a few leaps, Yu Ding caught up with Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, who was constantly tearing through the void and crossing it.

"Tai Xu, that mother of mine..."

Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, usually thought his self-cultivation and concentration were quite good, but at this moment, he finally broke down, disregarding his status, and couldn't help but curse loudly.

Because behind him, the edge of the tribulation clouds and the sea of ​​thunder was less than a thousand miles away.

"Fellow Daoist Taixu, wait!"

Seeing this earth-shattering tribulation, Manjushri Bodhisattva's voice softened, and he said loudly, "The matter of me taking your grand-disciple as my disciple... we can discuss it!"

"Ah, brother, what did you say? It's too noisy, I can't hear you. Speak louder..."

Thunder shook the heavens and the earth. Yu Ding was struck by the heavenly tribulation and was on the verge of death. He vaguely heard something, but before he could hear it clearly, it was covered by the thunder.

"You...you despicable Taixu..."

Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, was outside the Heavenly Tribulation. With his cultivation level, he could naturally hear the voices inside, and he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

"Don't come over here!"

Looking at the approaching tribulation clouds and lightning Manjushri Bodhisattva, who was getting closer and closer, he panicked. At this moment, he really wanted to escape, but the speed of the opponent, which was faster than his, made him feel powerless.

Then, time seemed to slow down in an instant. He watched helplessly as the edge of the sea of ​​thunder drew closer and engulfed him, and there was nothing he could do.

Just who is this Taoist Taixu?

The moment Manjushri was caught in the lightning tribulation, a deep look of bewilderment appeared in his eyes.

It seems he possesses the supernatural powers of his grandmaster, capable of summoning such a terrifying Golden Immortal Tribulation, and his path to physical sainthood is incredibly fast...

boom!
The next moment, a hazy lightning flash engulfed Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, and soon his screams could be heard from within.

Huff... Listening to the faint screams, my body felt like a jade cauldron being crushed and reassembled, and I felt as if the pain in my body had lessened a little.

"Is this the Heavenly Tribulation of the Immortal Battle, where one achieves physical sainthood? As expected... fierce and powerful!"

During the tribulation, Yu Ding sat cross-legged and activated the completed seventh-stage profound technique. His body shone with light and surged with boundless vitality, causing his shattered body and bones to reassemble.

At the same time, a three-zhang-tall divine being flew out from his crown, radiating a pale golden light and a grand aura. His face was like that of a jade cauldron, and it was his cultivated primordial spirit. Both of them received the baptism together.

The three Eastern religions emphasize the primordial spirit while downplaying the physical body, which may be their greatest weakness. Yu Ding's successful attack on Manjushri Bodhisattva just now validated his conjecture. "Equal emphasis on both the physical body and the primordial spirit..." Yu Ding thought, perhaps only then could he go further on the path of the Great Dao.

Of course, he doesn't need to go any further. Defying the heavens to prove the Dao and becoming a saint through nine revolutions is too far-fetched and unrealistic. His ideal is simply to attain the Great Luo Dao Fruit and then rely on his master's great tree for shade.

As long as his master is alive and the great tree of the Chan Sect stands, that's enough for him to roam the prehistoric world freely.

Boom!

Another unparalleled sea of ​​lightning descended, its golden light dazzling and illuminating the entire world. The destructive power erupting from the lightning was ten thousand times more terrifying than a burning star.

During this tribulation, the Five Elements Thunder, which circulated the energy of the Five Elements, and the Taiyin Sun Thunder, which contained the ultimate power of Yin and Yang, blasted the Jade Cauldron, sending flesh and blood flying everywhere and shattering its primordial spirit. Even someone as strong as the Sixth-Turn Profound Body was almost killed.

Bones were broken inch by inch, tendons were bursting, and blood was splattering everywhere; it was a truly gruesome sight.

Yu Ding endured the excruciating pain and circulated his profound power to continuously reassemble his shattered physical body and repair his fractured primordial spirit, thus maintaining his immortal state.

The "gold" in "Golden Immortal" signifies immortality, doesn't it?

hum!
It was also during Yu Ding's difficult tribulation that he suddenly opened his eyes as if he had sensed something, and his expression was extremely astonished.

However, this was clearly not the time for him to be distracted. Several bolts of lightning directly cleaved him, tearing his skin and flesh apart, pulling him back to the tragic reality of his tribulation.

Of course, while he suffered a terrible fate, Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, who shared in the Heavenly Tribulation with him, was not much better off. He experienced all the tribulations that Yu Ding went through, including the Five Elements Tribulation, the Taiyin and Taiyang Tribulation, and so on.

The only good news that Manjushri Bodhisattva felt at this moment was probably...

"The intensity of the heavenly tribulation... doesn't seem to have increased!"

Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, gasped as he was struck, until after a while: "Hiss, the Taiyin and Taiyang Heavenly Thunder... This isn't a Golden Immortal Tribulation, is this never going to end?"

Although he was already a powerful being, he was still cleaved in two, his skin torn and flesh torn, and he was in danger of dying. The tribulations that followed were even more incomprehensible to him.

Perhaps it was because they heard his voice that, as the lightning bolt struck down, the sky gradually cleared and everything seemed to return to calm.

Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, clutched his chest, breathing heavily. His robes were tattered, blood stained his lips, and his face was pale. He looked to the side with a complex expression: "Golden Immortal..."

There, a figure sat cross-legged in the void, his skin radiating a faint golden light, and his powerful aura began to rise continuously, instantly becoming incomparably sharp and intimidating.

Moreover, within his body, five faint traces of primordial immortal energy—green, yellow, red, white, and black—were circulating in his internal organs.

"Wha...what?"

Manjushri, the Heavenly Venerable of Vast Dharma, was stunned: "Upon entering the Golden Immortal Realm, he has grasped the key to cultivating the Five Elements..."

He didn't understand this at all, but expressed shock.

Moreover, it seems that the other party is not incapable of cultivating the five elements, but rather has stopped on their own initiative.

Yu Ding suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and piercing.

At this moment, he did not possess the ordinary immortal demeanor or unfathomable depths of a celestial being; he only displayed the unparalleled divine might of a battle immortal.

The Five Qi Returning to the Origin refers to cultivating the innate five elements of Qi from the five internal organs. He obtained the Dao of the Twelve Ancestral Witches and possessed the Dao seeds of the five great Ancestral Witches (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), so cultivating the five Qi in his chest was a piece of cake.

He had lingered in the Celestial Realm for many years, accumulating knowledge and experience, and could cultivate the Five Qi within his chest at any time if he wished.

However, he eventually stopped. The biggest taboo on the path of cultivation is taking too big a step, which can easily lead to trouble. Although using the Dao Seeds of the Five Ancestral Witches to cultivate the Five Qi in his chest saves time and effort, it is not something he cultivated with his own profound skills.

Anyway, he's not in a hurry right now. His current level of cultivation is considered decent enough in the prehistoric world, though not the best.

He can do what he can do now, and he can't do what he can't do now either!
Although his realm was somewhat lower than that of the original Jade Cauldron Immortal, he followed the path of physical immortality through battle, and his combat strength was absolutely not inferior.

Another point is that he is quite interested in the forbidden areas that his disciple Yuan Hong has developed!

"This is... a Golden Immortal?"

Yu Ding straightened up, sensing the changes within his body. The aura of a Golden Immortal was overwhelming, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Without becoming an immortal, one is merely an ant; without becoming a Golden Immortal, one is still an ant; but once one becomes a Golden Immortal..."

The power of a Golden Immortal is unimaginable until one personally sets foot in the Golden Immortal realm and truly experiences its immense power.

Of course, even if one becomes a Golden Immortal... one is still just a slightly larger ant. Yu Ding was aware of this, but crossing this threshold would be a qualitative transformation.

The transformation of a mortal into an immortal is a sublimation of life; in a sense, immortals and mortals are two different life forms.

After becoming an immortal, the dividing line that determines the level of future achievements is whether one can become a Golden Immortal.

Have you not heard that this Golden Immortal is a Golden Immortal?
Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal is still a Golden Immortal.

The so-called Saint, Master, Heavenly Venerable, Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal... doesn't he still have the title of Golden Immortal?
