Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 107 Gengjin Tribulation Lightning

On the mountainside of a barren mountain, there is a protruding boulder.

Xiao Bai sat cross-legged on the boulder, shook his sleeves, and released the little golden dragon.

"I'm about to break through to the next level, protect me!"

"Don't worry, my lord, with me here, I guarantee no one will be able to disturb you!" the little golden dragon assured, patting its belly with its claws.

Xiao Bai smiled and nodded, then closed his eyes, his breathing becoming steady and long.

As time passed, the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) began to boil, and a powerful suction force emanated from Xiao Bai's body, causing this energy to surge towards him.

Xiao Bai had Xiao Bing and Xiao Wu envelop the dantian, preventing these mixed energies from entering it. He allowed these energies to enter the body and rampage through the meridians, while Xiao Yi repaired these meridians after they were damaged.

Each breakthrough to a higher realm involves the meridians within the body undergoing a baptism of the energy of heaven and earth, making them more resilient and expansive.

Others need to be careful and meticulous, releasing this impact little by little in their meridians according to the cultivation method, but Xiao Bai doesn't need to.

With the Thunder Seed present, he wasn't afraid of such an impact. He could act recklessly, as long as he didn't exceed Xiao Yi's repair speed. Doing so had an advantage: it would make the width and resilience of his meridians far exceed those of others of the same level.

The width and resilience of one's meridians not only affect the speed of cultivation, but also the power of combat techniques.

If two people cultivate the same technique and reach the same level of mastery, then the one with wider and stronger meridians will definitely be more powerful in combat techniques of the same proficiency.

The time lasted from morning until evening, and the energy of heaven and earth around Xiao Bai had become astonishingly dense. He did not absorb a single bit of energy, but simply allowed it to continuously gather around him.

"That's about it!"

Xiao Bai sensed that the energy within a kilometer radius was constantly boiling, surrounding him like a vortex, and he was currently at the center of this vortex.

As his cultivation level increased, the energy required for each breakthrough became increasingly enormous. Since there were no places with abundant energy nearby, he had no choice but to use this method to gather the energy of heaven and earth and break through the realm in one go.

With hands forming a mudra, one enters a meditative state.

With his mind controlling the energy in his meridians, he began to circulate it along the path of the cultivation technique. After three cycles, this refined energy continuously rushed towards his dantian.

Xiao Bai quickly instructed Xiao Bing and Xiao Wu to release the restrictions, allowing the pure energy to rush into the Dou Jing within his dantian vortex.

As the energy within his body was refined, the surrounding energy seemed to have found a leak and frantically rushed into Xiao Bai's body.

Vast streams of energy continuously seeped into the body through the pores of the skin, and the cultivation technique was fully activated, constantly flowing into the dantian and rushing into the battle crystal.

With continuous energy infusion, the battle crystal within his body began to expand under Xiao Bai's gaze, suddenly growing from the size of a duck egg to the size of an adult's fist.

Furthermore, a dazzling silver lightning burst forth from his dantian, illuminating the entire dantian vortex as bright as day.

As time passed, the surrounding energy gradually thinned out with each absorption, until almost nothing remained.

Xiao Bai sensed the situation around him. Looking at the Dou Jing in his dantian, which had grown much larger and was still absorbing energy, he frowned a little. Was the energy still insufficient?

External energy is constantly disappearing, but the internal suction force remains.

Just as Xiao Bai thought he was about to activate Plan B: the Demon Core, the rhombus-shaped battle crystal in his body suddenly trembled slightly, and a low buzzing sound quietly emanated, echoing continuously in his dantian.

"Bang, bang!"

Suddenly, a mysterious sound, rhythmic and melodious like the beating of a heart, was mixed in.

The suction force from the battle crystal completely disappeared, and the light it emitted became inconsistent. In Xiao Bai's eyes, the rhombus-shaped battle crystal gradually became round and smooth.

As this change occurred, the rhombus-shaped crystal's edges began to protrude strangely, turning into sharp spikes.

In the end, the rhombus-shaped crystal transformed into a sea urchin, with exactly nine long, sharp spikes growing on it, crackling with lightning.

Just then, the Sea Urchin Crystal, which had just finished its transformation, trembled violently, and an extremely powerful energy ripple spread out.

"Finally, I've become a sea urchin warrior... I mean, a fighting spirit!" Xiao Bai watched this scene with a hint of joy.

Feeling the immense energy within his body, Xiao Bai knew that his dream of becoming a Dou Di had taken another step forward.

After a brief moment of joy, Xiao Bai's expression gradually turned serious. He felt that with each breakthrough, the sense of crisis was becoming increasingly clear.

He secretly transmitted his voice to the little golden dragon, alerting it. Then he closed his eyes, focused his mind on the quietly floating talisman, and awaited the arrival of the lightning seed.

Sure enough, the talisman never disappointed him. Soon, a corner of it glowed with a dazzling golden light. Looking at this light, Xiao Bai immediately knew that this was the Golden Thunder he was most wary of.

As the golden light appeared, Xiao Bailing felt an increasing sense of crisis. He finally realized where this sense of crisis came from.

In an instant, Xiao Bai's expression grew increasingly solemn, because no other lightning seed had ever given him this feeling before, including the exceptionally explosive Bing Fire Yang Lightning.

Recalling his experience with Binghuo Yanglei, Xiao Bai's expression turned somewhat grim. He truly believed he had almost died that time!

This time, it seems to be even more serious than the last time!

The golden light on the talisman condensed for a moment, then a thunderous roar resounded, followed by a golden bolt of lightning shooting out from the talisman, and the information about the lightning seed immediately appeared in his mind.

Geng Metal Tribulation Thunder: Formed by the fusion of ominous tribulation energy and Geng metal energy, the thunder seed is golden in color and is characterized by its killing power. In terms of destructive power, it ranks first among the five elements of divine thunder. It is exceptionally sensitive to tribulation energy and is one of the heavenly punishment thunder seeds.

Xiao Bai was slightly taken aback. After reading the information, he only understood that Gengjin Tribulation Lightning was the most powerful among the Five Elements Lightning. As for things like Tribulation Qi, he didn't quite understand.

Just when he thought the lightning seed would go to his five internal organs as before, he didn't expect that the Geng metal tribulation lightning would suddenly stop in his sea of ​​consciousness after it shot out.

Floating silently above the sea of ​​consciousness, shimmering with golden light, it seemed to be exploring something.

Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat. This was the sea of ​​consciousness. If this guy caused a ruckus here, and the talisman had no effect like it had when the lightning seed was given before, then it would be a tragedy. Besides, he knew that this guy was incredibly powerful!

As it turned out, what he didn't want came to pass. The Gengjin Tribulation Lightning seemed to sense something in his sea of ​​consciousness and soul, and golden lightning suddenly shot out in all directions, illuminating the entire sea of ​​consciousness with golden light.

A sharp, intense pain in his soul caused Xiao Bai to involuntarily withdraw his mind from his sea of ​​consciousness. The moment his mind returned, he seemed to see golden lightning in his sea of ​​consciousness, and wherever it went, wisps of black energy rose from his soul power.

The black aura gave him a strange sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember when he had seen such a thing before.

Before he could think any further, the excruciating pain that made him faint left him feeling completely blank.
