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

Chapter 74 The Great Luo is Secure
"Hiss, thirty-seven questions already. How does that compare to Senior Brother Shen?"

Wherever there are people, there is a social dynamic, and wherever there is a social dynamic, there is comparison.

At this moment, the disciples who were watching couldn't help but bring up Shen Gongbao again after seeing this scene.

After Shen Gongbao followed the path of celestial immortals and achieved true immortality, his status in the Jade Void Palace rose sharply, and he became a senior brother in the realm of immortals.

Furthermore, because of the forty-two heavenly tribulations that Heaven bestowed upon him, he instantly became a highly sought-after figure, revered by his disciples.

Because your innate talents and inherent qualities determine the extent of your tribulations today.

If others say you lack talent, you can be unhappy to hear it, but the Heavenly Tribulation is Heaven's judgment of your aptitude, and you can't ignore it.

According to the classification standards of a major sect like Jade Void Palace, a true immortal who receives the thirty-six Heavenly Thunders of the Heavenly Gang is only considered to have low potential and talent.

In the future, one might try to reach the level of a Celestial Immortal, but... such achievements will likely stop there.

Above the Thirty-Six Paths, this is the upper-middle range, with at least a 70% chance of becoming a Celestial Immortal in the future.

With potential above forty, he can be considered a top-tier genius. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, he is basically guaranteed to become a Celestial Immortal.

Shen Gongbao was struck by forty-two bolts of heavenly lightning last time. Such an achievement meant that everyone saw a celestial being born. A celestial being was enough to make people overlook his origins and go up to him to befriend him and build a good relationship.

As for the realm above the forty-fiveth path, that is another realm, extremely rare, and can be described as having the appearance of a Golden Immortal.

At this moment, Yu Ding's calm demeanor during his tribulation made many disciples curious about the potential of this 'junior brother' undergoing tribulation.

If he can hold out until the fortieth stage, then after he successfully transcends the tribulation, it will definitely be worthwhile for them to approach and befriend him.

After all, not all of them can achieve immortality. They may fail in their pursuit of the Dao and leave the mountain to find their own way.

But what would you do after coming down the mountain? Join the army? Go into business? Or work for someone else?
To be honest, after they came into contact with the immortals at Yuxu Palace, they would rather go down the mountain, choose a hilltop to establish a sect, or set up a stall in the city to tell fortunes, look at feng shui, catch demons, and exorcise evil spirits, than work for mortals and be ordered around.

In this situation, getting to know more fellow students will make it easier to find someone to help you when you encounter trouble or problems you can't solve in the future.

Do you really think they went up the mountain to the sacred mountain simply to seek the Tao?
That's too narrow-minded, guys!

They are indeed seeking the Way, but the question is, can they stop at seeking the Way?

Admittedly, achieving immortality is important, but it is equally important to get to know and befriend senior and junior brothers with great potential and expand one's network.

There's a lot of human relationships and knowledge involved here.

Click!

Three more bolts of lightning, each as thick as a water vat, struck down, transforming into a great river that engulfed Yu Ding completely. After being washed away, the river of lightning rushed into the clouds below.

"The fortieth one... seems different..."

Yu Ding looked up and frowned. He didn't know if it was because the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique was too powerful, but no matter how many heavenly lightning bolts struck him, he felt no pain or itch.

However, his physical body emanated celestial energy, and he began to evolve from a mortal body to a divine body. His primordial spirit was also bathed in lightning, washing away the yin of his primordial spirit and beginning to transform into a pure yang primordial spirit.

But after forty bolts of heavenly lightning struck, the swirling clouds in the sky began to turn, seemingly somewhat... dissatisfied with his natural nature.

"That's forty questions already!"

At this moment, on the distant platform, the disciples watching gasped in shock, their hearts pounding as they watched the violent energy of thunder tear through the surrounding clouds.

Divine power is like a prison, the might of heaven and earth!
Another celestial beauty...

Everyone thought to themselves, if nothing unexpected happens, this 'junior brother' will be able to secure his Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit if he takes another heavenly lightning strike.

However, judging from that 'junior brother's' appearance, he seems to be... quite at ease!

Further away, on a tree growing horizontally on a mountain cliff, Shen Gongbao stood against the wind, appearing extraordinary and otherworldly.

But he stared intently at the figure, his eyes trembling slightly, his right hand clenched tightly behind his back, turning somewhat white.

That guy's face still looked so natural...

Shen Gongbao couldn't tell if he was surprised, angry, or even a little jealous.

Because when forty bolts of lightning struck him, he was struck down from the sky to the ground, coughing up blood and looking extremely disheveled...

But after being struck by the fortieth bolt of lightning, this guy reacted as if it had struck anyone else; he didn't react much and remained calm and natural.

"Could you please show a little respect for the Heavenly Tribulation?" Shen Gongbao's face twitched as he tried his best to endure it.

At the same time, he sighed inwardly and realized that such a person was indeed qualified to befriend his senior brother.

Then, he felt a little lost, and suddenly felt an emptiness in his heart, a kind of bittersweet feeling...

At the same time, the jade cauldron in front slowly stood up, looked at the sky, and a pressure that made his body instinctively tense up appeared.

Boom!

This bolt of lightning was no longer so exaggerated and huge; it resembled a long spear that struck the jade cauldron.

Hiss... numbness!

To show respect... this time, Yu Ding felt a jolt, as if he had been electrocuted.

Lightning danced across his body, tempering his physical form externally and transforming his primordial spirit internally...

Then, forty-first, forty-second, forty-third...

When the forty-third bolt of lightning struck, Shen Gongbao's eyes twitched, and he looked up and sighed dejectedly.

The hands clenched tightly behind his back slowly and weakly loosened.

He was defeated!

He's not as talented as this guy!

Senior Brother Yu Ding has a new junior brother...

Shen Gongbao's feelings were... indescribably complicated.

"Oh my god, forty-five questions already..."

"How can this be?!"

"This is terrifying! Could it be that this junior brother has the potential to become a Golden Immortal?"

The gasps of surprise pulled Shen Gongbao back to his senses. Looking up, he saw that the disciple's robe was charred black, and his expression had lost its previous elegance, replaced by the somber look of someone struck by lightning. "Forty-five strikes?!" Shen Gongbao exclaimed in astonishment.

Above the forty-five levels, one has the potential to become a Golden Immortal; this is the case for the Seven Immortals of the Jie Sect among the disciples of Biyou.

If one could face forty-nine heavenly tribulations... the most outstanding talent and innate constitution in the primordial world!

For example, the Twelve Golden Immortals of Jade Void were all formidable individuals who had survived forty-nine heavenly tribulations. Their natural talents and aptitudes surpassed those of all the disciples, and they were no less capable than the disciples of Biyou Palace.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it's only a matter of time before these senior brothers achieve the status of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Then, they unexpectedly got stuck on the first level of the Three Corpses and Nine Insects...

This guy is about to face his forty-sixth heavenly tribulation?!

Shen Gongbao didn't want to speak.

“Look, the heavenly tribulation is changing…” a disciple exclaimed.

Figures emerged from the clouds of tribulation, resembling thunder gods, raising their hands to unleash a torrent of lightning that crashed down.

"Forty-six... Are you kidding me? Is this never going to end...?"

Yu Ding was speechless. And then there was Junior Brother Shen, who was so unreliable. Wasn't it said that there were usually no people here?
Where did these people come from at this moment?
"What's that noise? What's all the commotion about?"

At that moment, in a cave on another mountain peak, Huang Long emerged, frowning and yawning.

At this moment, Taiyi Zhenren also arrived riding the wind.

"Taiyi, what's going on over there? It's so noisy!" Huanglong said, displeased.

Taiyi looked in that direction and said, "It seems that a disciple is undergoing tribulation!"

"These young people are just going through a tribulation, why are they so excited? I just find it noisy."

"That disciple has endured forty-five lightning tribulations."

"what?"

Huang Long was startled, instantly losing all sleepiness, and muttered, "Forty-five, how long has it been since our Jade Void Palace has produced a disciple like this?"

These Golden Immortals are different from other races; they are either transformed from spiritual beings nurtured by heaven and earth, or reincarnations of ancient powerful beings...

However, among all living beings born after death, even among the earliest humans, only a handful could withstand forty-five bolts of heavenly lightning.

Taiyi shook his head. Apart from those veteran Golden Immortals, the young Golden Immortals were only just beginning to understand the basics and were still far from truly mastering the art.

For ordinary cultivators and Qi refiners, the Golden Immortal realm is already an unattainable goal.

But for those who achieve the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, becoming a Golden Immortal is merely the beginning.

Thunder roared and echoed across the sky, while lightning flashed like a net, covering the entire world!
The jade cauldron was submerged in this sea of ​​thunder.

"Forty-nine questions now..."

This time, the disciples of Jade Void Palace did not gasp in surprise, but remained deathly silent.

Shen Gongbao's mind went blank, and he almost fell headfirst off the cliff.

But at this moment...

In the sky, endless lightning slowly gathered, and gradually a figure with a dragon's head and a human body, with a belly as big as a drum, appeared, emanating endless pressure from lightning.

"Great God Lei Ze?!" Huang Long and Tai Yi were taken aback.

Lei Ze was one of the innate gods who controlled the Great Dao of Thunder at the beginning of creation, but he later perished in a great calamity.

Although they had all experienced these forty-nine lightning tribulations, it seemed that none of them had a record of this being's mark appearing as the grand finale.

The process of becoming an immortal after birth... they actually use this?

Taiyi Huanglong looked up at the sky simultaneously. "Old man, you are fair!"

Then, he glanced at the Jade Void Palace and became anxious.

Such a prodigy...won't Master offer any help?

"what's the situation?"

Yu Ding stared at the terrifying lightning shadow, his scalp tingling, his whole body steaming, but there wasn't a single bloody wound.

Was it his indifferent reaction to the Heavenly Tribulation that greatly offended it?
But you can't blame him for that. The Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong is too powerful, so it really didn't hurt him at all before!

Forty-nine—this was the original Jade Cauldron's aptitude. He had anticipated it, and the success rate was... 100%!
But he didn't expect the fiftieth one!

It is said that the Great Dao has fifty heavens, which are divided into forty-nine, and the maximum number of tribulations of lightning is forty-nine.
So what on earth is this last dish?

Behold that ferocious figure, feel the aura of destruction...

Yu Ding swallowed hard. What happened to the supposed sliver of hope that they could escape?

He could almost feel the ambulance lights flashing incessantly on his forehead, screaming "Damn it!"

Boom!

The Thunder God's mark, imbued with chaotic energy, transformed into an ancient thunder dragon, swooping down upon the jade cauldron and engulfing the area...

Between heaven and earth, only destructive thunder could be heard.

"how's it going?"

"Is that senior brother... still alive?"

Countless disciples of the Jade Void Palace looked at each other in bewilderment, and there was only a deathly silence.

If this fellow disciple survives, then wouldn't they have witnessed a miracle?
Forty-nine paths are the potential for the Great Luo!
These fifty dishes...

This Grand Luo Golden Immortal is definitely in the bag!
"Hiss, he has one more than us? Taiyi, do you think Master will consider taking this guy as a disciple if he survives? Taiyi, wait, Taiyi?!"

Huang Long also gasped and looked in that direction.

At this moment, Taiyi Zhenren took a step forward and headed straight for the place where he was undergoing tribulation.
