Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 471 Foundation Establishment Realm, Ninth Level (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Li Yunjing was completely filled with the medicinal power, his whole body was surging with energy, radiant and full of vitality, like a giant wave, with a thunderous roar emanating from his body.

After three days of this, the power of the ten pills finally dissipated, and the radiance on Li Yunjing's body gradually faded. He became like a statue, devoid of any life force.

But the next moment, Li Yunjing moved around, took out another jade bottle, poured out ten pills, and swallowed them.

After repeating this process and swallowing seven or eight pills from the jade bottles, Li Yunjing's aura finally acquired a sense of perfect perfection.

His flesh and blood, internal organs, and all his bones underwent new changes.

His entire body shone with a brilliant seven-colored light, and his life force was permeating the air.

If it weren't for the fact that it was a person, one might mistake it for a vast primeval forest.

The vibrant life force within it reveals Li Yunjing's enduring vitality.

He was only thirty-six years old, at the peak of his life.

Do not!
Not the peak!

But it's on the path to the very top!
His life trajectory is characterized by a soaring momentum.

Unstoppable!

The entire lifeline is presented at a straight 90-degree angle.

There is no sign of it slowing down!
Li Yunjing's blood, after being repeatedly purified by the power of thunder, had reached a state of perfection.

Every drop of his blood is an invaluable treasure.

Even Golden Core cultivators can use it to refine medicine and extract the divinity from the "Thunder Divine Body".

This is a complete evolution!
Without so many ancient spiritual herbs, Li Yunjing would have no way to refine perfect blood using his own magical power.

His blood flowed through his veins like a rushing river, its sound indistinguishable from the gentle tinkling of a flowing stream.

And the heart beats powerfully, making a "thump-thump" sound, like a drum being struck loudly!

Li Yunjing's internal organs were pounding at full force, and his Thunder Bones were crackling and popping.

In particular, streaks of electricity flashed incessantly throughout his body, shattering and grinding any hidden injuries from previous battles or the accumulated poison from pills he had taken during cultivation into dust, ultimately vanishing without a trace.

This time, with the infusion of abundant energy, Li Yunjing's body underwent another baptism.

The entire body is spotless and completely reborn.

Li Yunjing's physical strength has now reached the level of a cultivator at the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm.

He simply thought his body had become full of power and indestructible.

In reality, Li Yunjing knew very little about the changes in herself.

He had no idea that in the beginning of time, when heaven and earth were in harmony, and yin and yang were intertwined, divine thunder was born in the chaos, splitting the primordial chaos and giving rise to all things.

The "Thunder God Body" is an unparalleled body forged by seizing the creation of heaven and earth, tempering bones with thunder and refining the soul with lightning!
Li Yunjing's current level of "Thunder God Body" is only at the initial stage, just beginning. He has not yet experienced any true divine power.

At this moment, Li Yunjing's "Thunder God Body" revealed extraordinary phenomena: lightning bursts forth with every move he made, and electric arcs danced with every breath he took.

Within its flesh and blood lies the hidden power of lightning tribulation.

Lightning patterns are engraved on his bones, every drop of blood boils like liquid thunder, and every inch of his skin is as immortal as if forged by heavenly tribulation!

These are all just appearances!
As his physical cultivation deepened, Li Yunjing would truly understand just how terrifying his "Thunder God Body" really was!
Thunder strikes down upon me, I am the punishment of heaven!
It's not just wishful thinking!
It should be known that in the cultivation world, top cultivators have to bravely resist heavenly lightning when undergoing tribulation, but the "Thunder Divine Body" can tread on the sea of ​​lightning and tear apart the tribulation clouds with its hands, turning the "thunder of destruction" into body-tempering nectar!
When Li Yunjing advances to become a high-level cultivator, he will discover what true privilege is!

When the "Thunder God Body" is at the minor stage of mastery, when fighting against others, a single thought can unleash a thunderbolt, and a thousand thunderbolts can fall with a flick of the finger; a single punch can unleash a thunderous storm from the heavens!

It is as fast as lightning, as powerful as a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, and can even summon the thunder of heaven and earth to carry out punishment on behalf of heaven!
Upon reaching the pinnacle of cultivation, one's divine body becomes profound, capable of transforming into the form of a thunder god, with eyes like the sun and moon piercing the sky, hair like wildly dancing lightning, breath forming thunderclouds, and steps creating thunder pools.

Even if immortals or demons block my way, I will strike them down with a single bolt of lightning and reduce them to ashes!

Thunder forges my invincible bones, lightning refines my undying soul!
With a single thought, the Heavenly Tribulation descends, and the Eternal Thunder Lord arrives!

This is the true description of the "Thunder God Body".

Physically, Li Yunjing broke through the limits of the Foundation Establishment Realm and entered another level!
And his soul, too, underwent a change.

Having collected so many spirit-nourishing elixirs and consumed them all, Li Yunjing felt incredibly energetic.

His spiritual power extended continuously within his sea of ​​consciousness, reaching towards the mysterious sea of ​​lightning deep within it.

Each radiation exposure greatly depleted Li Yunjing's mental energy, but thanks to the replenishment from those pills, he was able to relieve his mental fatigue and regain his energy.

Through repeated mental training, he pushed the "Divine Firmament Forging Heavenly Secrets Technique" to its limit, cultivating it to near its peak.

His spiritual body underwent a further transformation.

In the days that followed, Li Yunjing continued his secluded cultivation. Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, and almost all of his nourishing pills had been used up.

Even Li Yunjing was secretly amazed; his spiritual transformation was incredibly difficult.

How many resources would it take to reach a higher level?

If one does not venture out on adventures, how can one quickly improve one's mental strength and seek perfection?
On this day, Li Yunjing finally felt his mental bottleneck loosen up a bit.

"Boom!"

Li Yunjing remained seated cross-legged, unmoving, his body surrounded by crackling lightning that formed a sea of ​​thunder.

This was not a strange phenomenon, but a real manifestation of the power of thunder within his body. Those arcs of electricity broke through the body's restraints and truly emerged.

He sat amidst a sea of ​​lightning, beneath Li Yunjing's knees, with electric dragons swirling around him, weaving countless bolts of lightning, like a deity riding a thunder dragon.

Amidst this sea of ​​lightning, Li Yunjing's spiritual power transformed into a divine sword, seemingly poised to shatter the shackles and truly manifest itself.

"Clang!"

The divine sword formed from his spiritual power continuously slashed within his sea of ​​consciousness, trying to dispel all darkness and illuminate everything within it.

Sword light and lightning surged within Li Yunjing's mind.

It produced a deafening roar!

At this moment, Li Yunjing was completely calm and focused on his inner vision, unable to perceive anything in the outside world.

"Boom!"

Numerous magical treasures flew out from Li Yunjing's body and surrounded him. Each of these treasures intertwined the laws and principles that governed its creation.

The way of tools is also the way!
It contains restrictions, runes, formations, and the characteristics of various rare and precious materials. All of these combined to form a weapon!

These magical treasures danced around Li Yunjing, emanating the same principles that govern the Great Dao.

In particular, the "Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror," which reveals the Great Dao of Yin and Yang, is of great help to Li Yunjing.

The white light shone into his body, further empowering Li Yunjing's physical and mental well-being, giving him more strength to dispel the darkness within his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Boom!"

Finally, Li Yunjing "saw" the object rising and falling in the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, amidst the sea of ​​lightning!

This time, he saw it much more clearly!

It doesn't look like a scepter? But rather a mace?

Thunderous Mace?

The weapon of divine punishment, the supreme ruler of all thunderbolts!
In Li Yunjing's "view," this mace was neither gold nor iron, but rather a condensed form of divine thunder from the heavens, its entire body entwined with thunderous patterns of destruction and rebirth.

The mace is three feet and six inches long, which corresponds to the number of tribulations in the heavens.

Its surface was covered with liquid-like purplish-gold plasma, and every slight tremor would trigger a thunderstorm in the sea of ​​consciousness and thunder.

"This is the authority of the Thunder God, and also a weapon for killing immortals and demons!"

The moment Li Yunjing broke through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he seemed to have grasped the secret of this divine weapon in his mind!

Having reached the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Li Yunjing's mental energy was also greatly depleted, and he once again withdrew from the state of inner vision.

Deep within the sea of ​​thunder, the divine weapon once again disappeared, hidden away.

"Ugh……"

Having finally glimpsed part of the secret, Li Yunjing sighed softly.

In the depths of his being, Li Yunjing sensed that the fortune he had received was perhaps too astonishing.

Does this involve real immortals and gods?
"Forget it! I should check my own condition first!"

Having broken through the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and even reached the middle level of the ninth level, Li Yunjing's strength has been enhanced once again!
His physical strength is comparable to the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm!

His spiritual power can also radiate for thirty-six miles, a distance that is almost no different from that of the third level of the Golden Core Realm.

It can be said that Li Yunjing has made significant improvements both internally and externally.

With such cultivation, Li Yunjing was certain that fighting against a cultivator at the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm would almost certainly result in a one-sided defeat!
No matter where they came from, the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm would be unable to withstand the attack after three to five rounds.

In a true life-or-death struggle, even a cultivator at the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm would not escape Li Yunjing's clutches.

As for encountering a cultivator at the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, Li Yunjing was not unable to fight back, relying on his many magic treasures, strong supernatural powers, and sharp lightning techniques!
Of course, the Golden Core cultivators mentioned here are the top Golden Core cultivators of behemoth sects, not those from large, medium, or small sects, families, or rogue cultivators.

However, this distinction is not absolute!
Top figures can also emerge from large, medium, and small sects and independent cultivators!

Throughout history, such geniuses have emerged one after another.

Although Li Yunjing didn't particularly value these established figures from large, medium, and small forces and independent cultivators, he would never underestimate them.

Those cultivators who can break through to the Golden Core Realm are one in ten thousand.

Each of them has an extraordinary opportunity.

No one knows what powerful trump card these people are hiding, which they suddenly use to turn the tide of battle against a powerful enemy.

Although Li Yunjing is powerful, he is not immortal.

When you clash with someone, you will get hurt and bleed.

"Breaking through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm! The next step is to cultivate this realm to perfection and prepare for the breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm!"

Feeling his own power, Li Yunjing murmured to himself.

He didn't specifically prepare any pills or spiritual items to assist in forming the Golden Core. In Li Yunjing's view, if one needs to prepare a method to assist in breaking through a small Golden Core realm, what about the Nascent Soul realm?
What about even higher levels in the future?

The higher the grade of a rare treasure, the rarer it is.

Where will we find them then?

I'm afraid we could search our whole lives and still not find a single clue!
Li Yunjing never pinned his hopes on external things; relying on his own abilities to reach higher realms was the right path!
In Li Yunjing's view, many cultivators in the cultivation world treat breakthrough pills as a lifeline, which is fundamentally wrong. Such cultivators are destined to have no future!
After breaking through his cultivation level, Li Yunjing scanned the secondary hall where Fu Chao was located with his divine sense. Seeing that Fu Chao had no intention of leaving seclusion, he calmed down and prepared to repair his damaged magic weapon.

After taking stock of all his treasures, Li Yunjing sighed. For the next ten days or so, he did nothing but focus all his energy on repairing the magical artifacts.

Many of his magical treasures, such as the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal," the "Blood Demon Seal," and the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword," along with his clothing and various defensive magical treasures, were already broken.

During the re-forging process of these magical artifacts, Li Yunjing specifically added "Mysterious Gold Divine Iron".

Li Yunjing could have as much of things as he wanted, like "Mysterious Gold Divine Iron".

Through his tireless efforts in refining, all the magical artifacts he frequently used were completely renewed.

Those magical artifacts that were at the spirit level have all been upgraded to half-step treasure artifacts.

As for the two important treasures, "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" and "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword", Li Yunjing specially added more rare and precious materials to them, which actually brought them to the level of low-grade treasures!

In order to forcefully reach a higher level through quality, Li Yunjing has paid a heavy price.

Numerous top-tier Tier 3 materials were incorporated into it, allowing the "Heavenly Thunder Emperor Seal" and "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" to successfully advance to the lowest quality low-grade treasures.

This one is the weakest, not because of poor quality, but because it lacks some of the restrictions, formations, and runes of the Golden Core realm, which affects the combat power of both treasures.

There's nothing we can do about this!
Li Yunjing's cultivation level was insufficient. Although he had some understanding of the various abilities of the Golden Core Realm, it was ultimately just a mirage, and he could hardly truly unleash the methods of the Golden Core Realm.
