Demon Taming: Start by synthesizing a Lantern Ghost with Divine and Demonic Talents

Chapter 212: Displaying Divine Power

On the broken jade disc, the fortune continued to rise.

But what about the Soul-Burning Tribulation?

The fate of our destiny has already been sealed, hasn't the Soul-Burning Tribulation arrived yet?

After enduring thousands of waves of tribulation lightning, Li Chunfeng's true essence and soul power, including the tens of millions of soul power of Randeng, and the vast demonic energy and power of Taiyi, were depleted and then restored several times. This feeling was not pleasant.

Li Chunfeng's face turned somewhat pale.

Although he possessed many supernatural abilities, only a few could truly withstand the heavenly tribulation. If it weren't for his phantom clones constantly exploding at the last moment, and the fact that the Taiyi Divine Thunder had a neutralizing effect on the lightning and fire, the final outcome would have been uncertain.

The Soul-Burning Tribulation is, after all, something that demons and monsters do in the Ghost Realm. This is the Spirit Control Realm, so perhaps this tribulation doesn't even exist here.

Just as I was thinking this, the lamp of my heart suddenly lit up.

A wave of restlessness washed over Li Chunfeng, and his expression turned solemn.

The invisible fire of the heart came extremely quickly; he didn't even have time to sense it before the yin fire ignited within his body, and his yin spirit was also ignited, burning with a ghostly green flame.

Li Chunfeng was still in a combined state at this time, his soul was one with that of Randeng, Taiyi, and Wendaoren, and Randeng's soul tribulation was the tribulation of the four of them at the same time.

This is also his strongest state.

However, he was burned by this nameless flame, and Li Chunfeng's soul was forced to jump out of his body.

I felt a pricking pain all over my body, and at the same time, everything in front of me was a white blur, as if I were in a sea of ​​fire. I couldn't express my suffering and could only silently endure it.

As it wanders around, the pain becomes unbearable, truly feeling like being torn apart by a thousand knives!

"I suppose even being slowly sliced ​​to death is only this bad. But the Soul Burning Tribulation has probably caused me pain that is similar to being slowly sliced ​​to death."

His body felt as if it were being torn apart by a thousand knives, yet Li Chunfeng was unable to return his soul to his body. A feeling of loneliness and despair welled up within him and grew stronger and stronger.

He was like someone helpless in an endless sea of ​​flames. Or perhaps he was like the monkey being burned in Laozi's alchemy furnace, struggling desperately but unable to see any way to escape. All he could see was fire, and naturally, he felt utterly hopeless.

Under the power of the rules of the Soul Burning Tribulation, Li Chunfeng not only detached from his physical body, but his physical senses also weakened, seemingly cutting off his path back to his body.

When feelings of loneliness and despair arise, coupled with the torment of burning, one's soul immediately feels like it's about to dissipate.

This situation was naturally extremely dangerous, almost a matter of life and death, but he had made many preparations for this Soul Burning Tribulation.

He immediately summoned a 'Soul Armor'.

The Soul Armor is made from the shell of a Soul Clam from the depths of the Nether Sea. As soon as it is activated, a cool sensation spreads out, instantly calming the soul and gradually easing the restlessness.

Still in great pain, Li Chunfeng remained steadfast, enduring the various forms of agony, and began to contemplate the *Black Lotus Sutra of the Turbid World*. The cooling sensation throughout his body intensified, his drifting soul coalesced, and his resolve gradually hardened!

He has grasped the essence of the sixth grade of black lotus in the "Black Lotus Sutra of the Turbid World".

Although the sixth-grade black lotus cannot yet help him maintain his sleepless nature and unwavering true self for thousands of lifetimes, it can still quickly repair his soul under the 'revival' characteristic of the black lotus yin spirit.

Just when he thought the Soul Burning Tribulation was over, a dark green sun suddenly appeared in his inner world, bursting into flames that descended and spread throughout his inner world.

This visualization instantly dispelled all coolness, and boundless heat arose.

This is the inner fire of observation, scorching the spirit and soul.

The endless torment returned, almost driving him to the brink of death.

"The Black Lotus of this turbid world, indestructible through countless eons. Boundless calamities, immeasurable lifespan..."

Li Chunfeng exerted all his willpower to suppress this suicidal thought.

"Crack!"

The Soul Armor shattered at that moment.

Li Chunfeng immediately activated the second, third, and fourth Soul Armor.

Three layers of soul armor were used up in succession.

I bought it to deal with this situation, what's the point of keeping it?

Taking advantage of the moment when his soul armor offered resistance, he merged his Yin spirit with the sixth-grade black lotus in the Turbid World Black Lotus Scripture, sat upright on the black lotus, and the black lotus bud closed, taking him into it, and fully felt the indestructible realm of the black lotus.

The flames were everywhere, and even though the Yin spirit hid inside the black lotus bud, it was still burning in the fire.

Although it was on the verge of extinction, it just wouldn't dissipate.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng also began to circulate the "Star Soul Bone" spell.

Under the heavenly tribulation, it is unable to draw down the power of the nine heavenly stars, but it can still vibrate the star core within its own acupoints.

Within the black lotus, Li Chunfeng's Yin spirit began to radiate starlight from his head, his soul becoming almost transparent, revealing his bones, which were now golden. This radiance then spread downwards from his skull, to his torso, upper limbs, and lower limbs, manifesting golden bones within his illusory soul.

This is the ultimate secret of the lost Bone Spirit Empire's treasured legacy in the Ghost Realm—the Star Soul Bone.

Once the illusory soul possesses golden bones, it transforms from the illusory into the real.

The originally terrifying Yin Fire suddenly seemed to have lost much of its power.

After he calmed his mind again and suppressed all kinds of evil thoughts, Li Chunfeng really felt that his soul had become a purplish-black pillar of light like a black lotus. It seemed to be truly unshakable and not afraid of being refined by fire. On the contrary, it was like "true gold" that became purer and purer in the fire!
Li Chunfeng circulated his Soul Bone Technique to resist the tempering of the Yin Fire, and felt his soul becoming cooler, purer, and more solid.

I don’t know how long it took.

Boom!

Suddenly, in Li Chunfeng's mind, the sixth-grade black lotus he had transformed into emitted a vast, boundless, purplish-black radiance that filled the entire universe.

At the same time, the flames that filled the sky and earth all transformed into a soft purple light.

Li Chunfeng let go of his thoughts and saw that it was no longer a sea of ​​fire.

A golden ray of light descended from the horizon, and it was already dawn in the outside world.

He was undergoing tribulation, enduring lightning strikes for an entire night.

His spirit, now directly exposed to the sunlight, no longer felt the fiery heat; the world remained the same. Keep in mind, he was currently in a state of spiritual separation. Seeing the sun from his physical body was vastly different.

The soul emerged from the body under the scorching sun, only to find itself in an even larger sea of ​​fire, a furnace of heaven and earth, where it was impossible to move an inch and the torment was unbearable.

However, the world that Li Chunfeng's soul now sees is no different from the world seen with his naked eye. This means that his soul has become increasingly solidified, existing between the illusory and the real. His Yin Spirit has survived this Soul Burning Tribulation and has become even more condensed!
In the small inner world, the pale green sun slowly dissipated, transforming into the purest Nine Yin energy, which was absorbed by the Yin God.

The last cloud of calamity began to dissipate.

The bizarre Soul-Burning Tribulation was also successfully overcome.

A gentle breeze suddenly swept in from the horizon, bringing a refreshing coolness. The spirit of heaven and earth transformed into colorful raindrops that fell down.

A lantern ghost rose from above Li Chunfeng's head, and a green dragon about the length of an arm pierced through his chest.

Both were bathed in the five-colored rain, and their energy was rapidly increasing, quickly advancing towards the fifth rank.

The fifth-order demon is the Mirror Abyss Realm, which corresponds to the Void Step Realm of a Divine Soul cultivator.

The Void Step Realm for a Divine Soul cultivator in the Earthly Realm is the breaking through of the barrier between life and death, marking the beginning of metamorphosis. At this stage, the cultivator's divine soul transforms from Yin to Yang.

The Mirror Abyss Realm of demons and ghosts also breaks through the barrier between life and death, with the ultimate yin of the soul containing a trace of ultimate yang.

Even after death, a fifth-tier soul cultivator's spirit can still possess another body. They can undergo corpse liberation and reincarnate, but they are troubled by the mystery of their birth.

At this moment, the divine soul pressure of the Burning Lamp was more than ten times more condensed than when he was at the fourth level. Not only was the divine soul pressure immense, but the quantity of soul power was also rapidly increasing. Originally at the level of tens of millions of divine soul thoughts, it didn't increase tenfold, but within a short time, one divine soul thought rapidly expanded to its full potential, splitting into two thoughts. These two thoughts then absorbed the five-colored nectar again, further differentiating into four thoughts before finally stopping. Forty million strands of soul power!

The weakened state was instantly restored to its full strength.

Li Chunfeng thought to himself, "If someone tries to kick a man when he's down, they might end up falling flat on their face."

Taiyi's transformation was even more obvious; he had already taken on the form of a dragon, bathed in the five-colored rain, his body struggling and roaring incessantly, seemingly in extreme pain.

Li Chunfeng understood him perfectly and immediately realized that this was the "Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Scripture" reaching its current perfection and undergoing a transformation.

Are the golden scales just a thing in the pond? They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds.

Dragons can be large or small, can rise or hide; when large, they stir up clouds and mist, when small, they conceal their form; when rising, they soar through the universe, when hiding, they lurk within the waves.

Taiyi, with its tail held high, curled its body into a hemisphere, and a huge cyan-purple Taiji diagram suddenly burst forth, expanding to a range of hundreds of feet. It began to spin rapidly, and within the domain space, streams of energy flowed into the Taiji diagram from all directions. A visible ripple spread from the edge of the Taiji diagram toward the edge of the earth. After the ripple passed, all that remained was endless sand and gravel. All the energy contained in the earth was absorbed without leaving a drop into the huge cyan-purple Taiji diagram and the Taiji sphere, which was more than ten feet in diameter at the center of the diagram, and also enveloped Taiyi.

Such a commotion forced Li Chunfeng and Randeng to step aside.

The ripples spread rapidly toward the ends of the earth. Even the Dragon Head Mountain, which was unmoved by thunder, began to rumble under this suction. The dragon energy that had been submerged in the mountain was drawn out and absorbed into the Tai Chi sphere.

Li Chunfeng and Randeng could only stare in disbelief at this dramatic change.

Even when he tried to get closer, he felt an extreme sense of danger and retreated.

Li Chunfeng took out the tattered jade disc and closely watched Taiyi's transformation.

Soft groans emanated from within the purplish-blue Tai Chi sphere. The dragon writhes, shedding its outer layer of scales like a snake shedding its skin, emerging with a completely new body. Gradually, a dragon head covered in green branches emerges, its long whiskers fluttering white in the wind. Four bulges on its abdomen are torn open, revealing four dragon claws. Then comes the slender dragon body, which quickly takes shape.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, Taiyi at the center of the Taiji diagram rapidly transformed into the shape of a dragon.

A layer of fine, sky-blue dragon scales quickly covered the exposed, red flesh, and the enormous Tai Chi diagram rapidly contracted inward.

[Talent: Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon. Current Realm: Fifth Transformation of the Divine Dragon (95.2%)]

He directly crossed the gap between the third and fourth transformations from the peak of the third transformation, reaching the fifth transformation of the Divine Dragon.

95.2%, not far from the completion of the fifth transformation.

"What exactly is this five-colored rain, that it has such miraculous effects?!"

Li Chunfeng glanced at the seven-colored fortune suppressed by the broken jade disc and exclaimed, "Hiss, it has already accumulated as many as 380,000 strands!"

It was far greater than all the luck he had accumulated in the past.

Although this Thousand Thunder Fiery Cloud Tribulation was fraught with danger and nearly cost him his life, he was rewarded with such enormous benefits after surviving it.

"To be honest, the rewards for undergoing tribulation in this world are just too many."

"Is this the natural order in the process of the apocalypse, with all sorts of rewards being given away for free?"

Just as Li Chunfeng had this thought, a sudden realization dawned on him: "The cause and effect of heaven and earth!"

"I have benefited from the Spirit Realm, so I must repay the karmic debt to this Heavenly Dao... It is only right!"

As this thought settled, Li Chunfeng suddenly came to his senses, and couldn't help but be somewhat shocked, "Where did this sudden enlightenment come from? Was it due to the Heavenly Dao rules of this world?"

He shook his head violently, not daring to think about it any further.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the heaven and earth shook.

"hold head high!"

The newly born Taiyi trembled all over, its awkwardness turning into firmness and strength. Suddenly, it raised its head and let out a dragon's roar, the sound breaking through the thick fog and soaring into the sky. In the midst of this long roar, a series of crisp metallic sounds came. The sky-blue scales on Taiyi's body collided with each other, actually producing a metallic sound.

His body instantly expanded, transforming into a dragon ten thousand feet long, soaring freely through the clouds.

"What?! It's actually the bloodline of a true dragon!"

Just as Taiyi was displaying his power, the three figures that had been hiding in the distance could no longer remain concealed.

"Could it be that the true dragon bloodline was undergoing tribulation just now?!"

"Then it's no wonder. The level of this true dragon bloodline must be extremely high, to the point that heaven and earth have taken notice of it, which is why such a terrifying heavenly tribulation has been sent down to test it."

"His aura is only at the fifth rank, not the sixth. This is a young dragon!"

Xiang Jiu and the other two exchanged glances, each seeing greed and wariness in the other's eyes. "With such a powerful true dragon bloodline, and it's just a young dragon cub, what do they need Kunpeng for!"

"on!"

The fact that the three of them were able to hold back until the clouds of calamity dissipated without making a move already shows they were extremely cautious.

But upon seeing the dragon cubs, all caution was replaced by greed.

Wanshe Huang Shangma raised his hand, and suddenly a purple light shot out from his hand, revealing a small purple snake. After it flew out, amidst a huge thunderclap, a gigantic lightning snake with a body a thousand feet long and its entire body wrapped in purple lightning appeared.

This thousand-foot-long lightning serpent was filled with a violent aura, its eyes greedily fixed on Taiyi in the sky.

Not to be outdone, Xiang Jiu summoned a hundred-foot-tall Moonlight Elephant amidst the rumbling spiritual light. A golden hammer also appeared in his hand with a flash of light.

The expert from the Toad Immortal Clan also summoned a rascal toad the size of a small mountain. It was wearing a small jacket that swayed wildly in the wind, and it held two short swords in its hands. The swords were wrapped in blue lightning and golden arcs of thunder, radiating an astonishing pressure that seemed to reach the sky. They were clearly extraordinary.

The three of them attacked together, aiming at Taiyi's position.

"hold head high!"

Taiyi Dragon calmly looked at the three attacks coming from all directions and leisurely extended its dragon claws.

With a deafening roar, the fastest-charging, greedy purple serpent was struck as if by lightning, its head snapped to the side, and it crashed down towards the mountain below.

Huang Shang was shocked. His natal spirit snake was a sixth-order creature, yet it was knocked down by a single claw from a fifth-order dragon cub that had just undergone tribulation, and it was powerless to fight back.

After Taiyi swatted the giant snake away with one claw, it opened its mouth and spat out a pillar of Taiyi divine lightning that enveloped the Moonlight Spirit Elephant. The elephant let out a terrible roar, and the giant elephant's skin was torn and its flesh was ripped open.

The Toad Sage's two short swords fell towards Taiyi.

The short sword crackled with electricity, its blue lightning and golden arcs emitting a blinding brilliance. After a deafening thunderclap, the electric arcs surged forth, initially as thin as silk, but in the blink of an eye, they thickened and lengthened, growing countless times in size, transforming into a colossal object several meters wide and hundreds of meters long, its dazzling light even illuminating most of the sky.

However, just as this incredibly powerful strike was about to land on Taiyi's head, Taiyi opened his mouth and inhaled, swallowing the blue lightning and golden arc of thunder in one gulp.

The three were terrified.

"Is this still a dragon cub?"

The three realized something was wrong and dared not hold back. Just as they were about to take their next step, the sky suddenly brightened.

Before anyone knew it, countless lanterns had covered the entire mountainside.

Densely packed, countless.

A calm voice resounded throughout the entire sky.

"There really are opportunists taking advantage of the chaos!"

"In that case, I shall accept the offer without being impolite."
