Chapter 157: Heaven's jealousy, the conclusion of a fake pill

After returning to Cangxing Island, Zhang Wei did not directly absorb the Wu Earth Thunder Source, but chose to go to Jinxing City first to express his gratitude to Master Huaizhu who helped him.

However, when Zhang Wei arrived at Master Huaizhu's manor, he learned that Master Huaizhu had not returned and he did not know where he had gone.

So he had no choice but to give up and return to Ziyan Mountain to start refining the Wu Earth Thunder Source.

With the experience of absorbing thunder sources three times, Zhang Wei's process of absorbing the Wu Earth Thunder Source was particularly smooth. Although there were some minor twists and turns due to the properties of the Wu Earth Thunder Source, after half a year, Zhang Wei also successfully refined the Wu Earth Thunder Source.

After opening his eyes, Zhang Wei's eyes turned light yellow. Then he waved his hand, and a layer of khaki lightning spread out from him, instantly sweeping across the entire quiet room.

And in the next moment, the ground that had been spread by the Wu Earth Divine Thunder sank several inches, and the floor tiles of the entire quiet room collapsed, and then were crushed up by an inexplicable force.

This method, which is similar to gravity crushing, is one of the effects of the Wu Earth Mine. Zhang Wei can form a gravity field in the area where the Wu Earth Mine spreads, and then attack and restrict the enemy.

The effect of the Wu Earth Divine Thunder is not that limited.

After refining the Wu Earth Thunder, Zhang Wei discovered that his spiritual power not only had the sharpness of Geng Metal, the recovery of Jia Wood and the explosiveness of Bing Fire, but also had the extremely thick characteristics of Wu Earth.

The spiritual power, which had already been tempered by the Shaoyang Fire, became seven or eight times more condensed than that of the cultivators of the same level. It became even more condensed after being transformed by the Wu Earth Thunder.

According to Zhang Wei's estimation, the concentration of his spiritual power is now more than ten times that of his own before he practiced Shaoyang Pure Body Gong!
A spiritual force that is ten times stronger than that of a cultivator of the same level, coupled with a quasi-fourth-level physical body and the power of the mind at the peak of the false pill realm.

What would be the quality of the fake elixir that could be made under such spirit? And what would be the quality of the golden elixir that would be formed after surviving the golden elixir tribulation?

Zhang Wei's heart suddenly became excited, and he couldn't wait to leave Ziyan Mountain. He bought a large number of pills and items to assist in his cultivation on Cangxing Island and then entered his next retreat.

Just like this, five years passed, and Zhang Wei successfully recovered to the middle stage of Purple Mansion.

Another ten years passed, and Zhang Wei naturally entered the late Purple Mansion realm.

At this time, Zhang Wei took the Three Spirits Gathering Pill refined by Master Huaizhu.

In an instant, Zhang Wei felt that his physical body, spiritual power, and divine power were all mobilized at the moment the medicinal power was released, and then gathered at his dantian to form a circle.

Then another five years...

One day, there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in the sky above Ziyan Mountain, and a thick black cloud covered the area within a hundred miles of Ziyan Mountain.

Then silver snakes danced wildly, and ferocious thunder dragons emerged from the dark clouds and roared!
At the same time, the spiritual energy of the entire Ziyan Mountain was mobilized at this moment, forming a large funnel-shaped vortex above the cave where Zhang Wei was.

This scene instantly attracted the attention of all the monks within hundreds of miles. Whether they lived nearby or just passed by, all of them cast their eyes here.

"Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation?"

Many monks stared at this scene blankly, with different expressions on their faces, including jealousy, confusion, envy and so on, which can be said to highlight the various aspects of life.

Especially those Purple Mansion cultivators who had cultivated to the False Dan realm were even more excited. They all rode their light beams to come and observe, hoping to get some help from it.

However, when they saw the violent thunder covering an area of ​​100 miles, they all fell silent.

This heavenly calamity... seems to have a rather large scope.

A purple mansion monk in green asked a familiar fellow Taoist: "Fellow Taoist Xu, you are here too?"

Master Xu bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Zeng, are you also here to watch this senior overcome the heavenly tribulation?"

Zeng Shangren sighed: "Yes, but I don't think it is very good..."

As he spoke, Master Zeng pointed to the black cloud in the distance that covered an area of ​​hundreds of miles and continued to expand, and said, "Look at the scale of this catastrophe.

Two hundred years ago, when Hua Yue Zhenren of Cang Xing Island was going through the Golden Core Tribulation, the area was only eighty miles in radius. He was praised as a rare genius in Cang Xing Island, but this..."

As he said this, Master Zeng smiled tearfully.

"If this black cloud continues to grow, it will be impossible to stop it within a radius of 100 miles. How terrifying will the power of the heavenly tribulation accumulated by such a cloud be?"

The power of the Golden Core Tribulation depends first on the coverage of the Tribulation Cloud.

A larger area of ​​​​the calamity cloud often means that the cultivator's talent and foundation are stronger, but it also means that the power of the heavenly calamity is stronger and the duration is longer.

This is also a great test for the Purple Mansion cultivators who are going through the Golden Core Tribulation.

Many brilliant Purple Mansion cultivators died because they could not bear the power of the heavenly tribulation when they were going through the Golden Core Tribulation.

On the contrary, some cultivators who were not as good as others in their youth had the last laugh, successfully passed the golden elixir tribulation and enjoyed a thousand years of life.

Therefore, people often call these unlucky guys "the sons of God's envy."

As for the classification of the Sons of God's Jealousy, the Seven Star Sea and even the entire Dongzhou have their own set of classifications.

Those who are over a hundred miles away are basically considered to be envied by God. When it comes to this level of heavenly tribulation, the success rate of surviving it is less than one in ten!

As the area covered by the calamity cloud increases, the difficulty of passing through it will increase exponentially!
Master Xu sighed, "Alas, the path to immortality is hard to achieve."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Xu and Master Zeng felt the heaven and earth moving strangely. The thunderclouds in the sky stopped expanding, and then lightning surged up in them.

Is it coming?!
Just when everyone thought that a heavenly calamity was about to fall, letting them witness either the birth of a genius or the end of a tragedy.

Under the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, the calamity cloud that covered an area of ​​one hundred miles... dissipated!
Broken up?

All the monks who came to watch were staring at each other in amazement.

Master Xu asked, "Fellow Daoist Zeng, do you know that this golden elixir heavenly tribulation can be dissipated?"

Master Zeng is stronger than him, so he knows more about the golden elixir tribulation.

Master Zeng stroked his beard and said, "Yes, just stop breaking through."

"For cultivators of my generation, the practice is to go against the will of heaven. The Golden Core Tribulation is the test, punishment and reward of this world for us to achieve the Golden Core Great Dao. As long as you do not go against the will of heaven and continue to break through, then naturally there will be no tribulation."

Master Xu's eyes gleamed and he said, "So... this senior is afraid?"

"Wouldn't you be afraid?"

Master Zeng glanced at Master Xu and sighed, "If I were to encounter this golden elixir tribulation, I would make the same choice. I would only take a chance if I was about to die."

"Ah... let's just go our separate ways..."

Seeing that the person who was trying to overcome the tribulation gave up, the cultivators, who had nothing to watch, dispersed and returned to their own homes.

As for going to chat with the person involved like we did on Xuanxing Island, that is absolutely not necessary.

This means giving up on the golden elixir tribulation. Maybe the person is in a bad mood. If you go there, you will only make yourself uncomfortable.

However, in reality, in the cave of Ziyan Mountain.

"Hu~~"

Zhang Wei took a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "It was almost like that, I just survived the catastrophe!"

Zhang Wei's initial goal was just to form a fake pill, but he didn't expect that the three forces of essence, energy and spirit within the fake pill were too strong, and directly brought about the golden pill's heavenly tribulation.

He's not ready yet.

Fortunately, he managed to control the situation successfully, so that the heavenly calamity did not come down directly.

Then Zhang Wei opened his mouth, and a "fake pill" that looked like three beads squeezed into a ball flew out of his mouth.

At this level, it can no longer be called numbness, it can only be said that it is a tumor!

But it was indeed a fake pill. It was just that Zhang Wei's essence and qi were too powerful, and the quality of his divine power as a god could not keep up. He could not control the huge amount of essence and qi, causing his fake pill to become somewhat deformed.

"So if we want to make the fake pill round and smooth, we have to find a way to increase the power of our mind?"

Looking at his fake pill, Zhang Wei felt a little troubled.

Originally, his spiritual power had already reached the limit of the Purple Mansion Realm, and its quality was even much stronger than that of ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators. How could it be so easy to improve it?

But if this is not the case, the fake elixir with the unharmonious three forces of essence, energy and spirit will be baptized by the heavenly tribulation for a longer time in the future, which will not be conducive to overcoming the golden elixir tribulation.

"I can only go to the Cang Yun Sect ruins to think of a solution. I hope there is a treasure there that can improve my divine consciousness."

Zhang Wei thought so in his heart, then pushed the door open and walked out.

A breeze blew, rippling Zhang Wei's hair and beard. Beard?

Zhang Wei was startled, and reached out to touch his lips and chin, and immediately felt a furry area.

Summoning a water mirror, Zhang Wei was able to see his current appearance clearly.

I saw that the young man in the mirror had turned into a middle-aged man with a half-foot long beard.

Zhang Wei laughed in silence. Although he had been in seclusion for twenty years to form the fake elixir, which had increased his lifespan by more than a hundred years, combined with the advantages of being a body cultivator, his total lifespan was close to seven hundred years!

Considering his age of 250, which is equivalent to a middle-aged man in his thirties, considering the lifespan of ordinary people is only a hundred years, it is not surprising that he looks like this.

Looking at the flowers outside the cave blooming due to the spiritual energy, Zhang Wei thought: "Flowers may bloom again, but people can never be young again, right?"

With a wave of his hand, a platinum-colored light flashed in his hand, and Zhang Wei's beard fell off, revealing a handsome and healthy face.

"A man is a teenager until he dies!"

After washing and dressing up, Zhang Wei, looking refreshed, headed for the market on Cangxing Island. The ruins of the Cangyun Sect would be opened in about ten years, so he had to prepare well.

According to the information he had obtained about the ruins of the Cang Yun Sect, in addition to the conventional formation protection, there were also some special restrictions left by the predecessors.

If you are not the person involved, even with the token it is easy to trigger the ban, leading to various disasters, so some extra preparations are essential.

For example, puppets.

Using puppets is a good choice whether for exploring the way or delaying the enemy, especially with Zhang Wei's current power of mind, he can easily control hundreds of second-level high-quality puppets to fight the enemy.

If one or two more Heavenly Thunder Seeds were installed as backup energy sources, even if several Fake Dan monks besieged him, they would be blown to pieces by hundreds of Heavenly Thunder Seeds, thus leaving time for Zhang Wei to retreat safely.

And not only the second-level puppet, Zhang Wei now also wants to try to make more advanced puppets.

Although the real strength of the Seven Star Sea is not much stronger than that of the Five Realms, it is not as isolated as the Five Realms. Many immortal cultivation skills that have been lost in the Five Realms are still circulated in the Seven Star Sea.

So after paying some price, Zhang Wei finally succeeded in obtaining the method of making a third-order puppet, and the strength it displayed was no less than that of Zifu!

Of course, the cost is also higher, but for Zhang Wei, the most expensive thing is just the material cost.

After careful consideration, Zhang Wei finally selected three types of puppets.

There are the falcon puppets with high attack and agility, the ant puppets with weak strength but small size and high concealment, and the giant soldier puppets that are suitable as tanks, damage resistance and output.

However, the manufacturing cost of the third-level puppet also rises sharply, and it is also more difficult to control, so after careful consideration, Zhang Wei only plans to make ten to assist himself.

However, even so, as the material costs for the ten puppets were spent, Zhang Wei's wallet became visibly deflated.

It cannot be said that he is penniless, but it can also be said that his pockets are cleaner than his face.

There was no way around it. After twenty years of training, Zhang Wei's financial expenditure was already high enough. Now that he had just come out of retreat, he was spending lavishly on puppet manuals and huge amounts of materials. The fact that he could afford to buy them all showed that his savings were deep enough.

Sitting in a pavilion in Cangxing City, looking down at the bustling crowd below, Zhang Wei felt out of place.

"Alas...I'm out of money again."

Zhang Wei sighed and said that no matter in his previous life or in this life, there is no sense of security without money.

Just when Zhang Wei was wondering whether he should continue to make money by refining magic weapons for others or going out to sea to hunt monsters, a person among the crowd on the street below seemed to recognize him and immediately showed a look of surprise.

"Senior Zhang!"

Zhang Wei paused and looked up, only to see a middle-aged man with a somewhat familiar face flying up with a little girl of about thirteen or fourteen, and then the little girl bowed to him respectfully.

"You are... Guo Yang?" Zhang Wei asked in surprise.

"It's this junior!"

It seemed that because Zhang Wei had not forgotten him yet, Guo Yang's expression was also very excited.

"I didn't expect that after not seeing you for decades, you have already broken through and are about to reach the late stage of foundation building."

Zhang Wei sighed, then looked at the girl next to Guo Yang. Seeing the familiar height and age, Zhang Wei subconsciously leaned back.

He asked cautiously, "She is your daughter?"

Guo Yang said humbly: "It is my daughter Guo Yun!"

Then he pulled Guo Yun and said, "Yun'er, this is the great benefactor that Daddy often told you about before, Senior Zhang!"

Zhang Wei was sharp-eyed and noticed that Guo Yun felt a little distant from her father, but she still knew the general situation and did not embarrass Guo Yang, the father, in front of Zhang Wei.

She bowed to Zhang Wei very respectfully and said, "Guo Yun greets Senior Zhang!"

"Um……"

Zhang Wei nodded, then touched the ring, and then he remembered that he was very poor, so he smiled and said, "You came at a bad time. I am not well-off now, so I don't have any gifts to give you."

"Senior, don't you have enough money?"

Guo Yang said: "I have accumulated some wealth over the years. If you really need it, you can take it all."

Zhang Wei quickly said, "No need."

It’s not that Zhang Wei looked down on Guo Yang’s family background. With his current strength and status, just going out to sea and starting a furnace would be enough to keep Guo Yang busy for more than ten years.

At this time, Guo Yun suddenly said, "Since Senior Zhang is short of money, then father, why don't you introduce Senior Zhang to Master Taihe?"

"what's up?"

Zhang Wei looked at Guo Yang, who was a little moved, but still scolded Guo Yun: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid!"

"It's okay, tell me."

Zhang Wei said indifferently.

He recalled his last treasure hunt experience with Guo Yang. Although it was a bit thrilling, it was a very good experience overall, so he asked casually.

"Actually, it's like this..."

Guo Yang answered honestly: "I have now joined a force called Tianyun Palace. They have a small dynasty under their command, and a strange domain has appeared in their territory."

"Ok?"

Zhang Wei paused. He seemed to have heard a familiar word from Guo Yang just now. He asked, "What did you say? Strange Domain?"

Guo Yang nodded and said, "Yes!"

Zhang Wei asked hurriedly: "How big is the strange domain?"

Guo Yang recalled and said, "It was very big. Our Tianyun Palace Master, Tianyun Zhenren, was alarmed. Seven Purple Mansions Supremes were able to contain its expansion. So now Tianyun Palace is dispatching people from all over to deal with the creatures in the Weird Domain and look for the trace of the Weird King. I am also among those who have been recruited."

Hearing Guo Yang's explanation, Zhang Wei's heart became excited.

Weird territory, he is familiar with it!
The soul energy he gained from it helped to increase his spiritual power by a great deal!
A strange domain that requires the efforts of seven Purple Mansion Masters to contain it. The soul energy provided by the strange creatures inside should be able to further enhance my spiritual power, right?

"A strange domain that endangers tens of millions of mortals? This is too dangerous."

Zhang Wei stood up and said righteously, "If that's the case, then I really can't just sit back and watch."

"what?"

Guo Yang paused, then said in surprise: "Senior, are you willing to help?"

"Of course." Zhang Wei nodded.

If this fake alchemy cultivator wants to help you, shouldn't you from Tianyun Palace show some appreciation?

The gratitude fee from Tianyun Palace, plus the proceeds from selling some strange materials, would be enough to cover the cost of cultivation for the next few years, right?
Coupled with the abundant soul energy in the strange domain, after refining it into elixirs, it can also make one's spiritual power further improved!
Tianyun Palace got this powerful foreign aid, and Zhang Wei also got money and resources. This is a win-win situation!
So Zhang Wei immediately said to Guo Yang: "There is no time to lose. Where is the strange domain? Take me there quickly!"

"what?"

Guo Yang paused and wondered why Senior Zhang was so anxious?
But he still said honestly: "Senior, please follow me. The strange area is on Qianyun Island, 130,000 miles north of Cangxing Island."
