Dual Transmigration: American Prison, Surviving to a Fantasy Development Stage

Four corpses lay sprawled on the ground, their faces frozen in the terror and disbelief of their dying moments.

Meng Shentong stood alone in the sword formation, covered in blood, his robes torn to shreds by the sword energy.

He lowered his head, his shoulders trembling violently, not so much out of fear, but as if he were suppressing some extreme emotion.

After a long while, he slowly raised his head, his wrinkled face filled with despair, regret, and a kind of madness born of desperation.

His eyes held no pleading, only overwhelming remorse.

If he had known this would happen, he would never have provoked this young man.

Blood-red cracks appeared on Meng Shentong's skin, clearly a sign that his golden core was about to explode.

How could Lin Feng possibly give him that opportunity?

The self-destructing Golden Core cultivator could not be devoured by the Black Lotus, thus wasting a valuable material at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Feng vanished from his spot, his figure leaving a golden afterimage in the air, and in the next instant, he appeared in front of Meng Shentong.

His hand extended like an iron clamp, his five fingers accurately gripping Meng Shentong's neck, lifting him up.

At the same time, an incomparably powerful spiritual force poured into Meng Shentong's body from his palm.

He forcefully suppressed the raging, out-of-control spiritual energy within his body.

Lin Feng leaned close to Meng Shentong's ear and whispered...

Speaking in a low, unhurried voice, in a volume that only the two of them could hear:

"I forgot to tell you, my real name is Lin Feng."

Upon hearing the name "Lin Feng," Meng Shentong's eyes widened to their limit, and his pupils contracted sharply due to extreme shock.

Lin Feng was the closed-door disciple of He Yuanyue, the sect leader of the Cangxuan Sect.

That legendary genius who broke through to the Golden Core stage in less than half a year after starting his training.

It turns out the rumors were all true, and even more terrifying than the rumors themselves.

"You're Lin Feng? How is that possible?"

"You didn't expect that, did you?"

I must say, I have a real connection with your Green Wood Sect.

Back when I was in the Cloud Origin Secret Realm, Liang Xiang from your Green Wood Sect sent people to hunt me down, but I ended up killing them instead.

When I went to the Magnolia Palace, your Green Wood Sect was afraid that Elders Mu Lian and Chen Changsheng, both at the Golden Core stage, would chase after me.

And your grandson Meng Changqing.

Today, you will be able to reunite with your grandson.

Meng Shentong closed his eyes in despair.

I felt incredibly regretful.

It turns out that from the very beginning, the Aoki Sect had offended the wrong person. From the very beginning...

Everything was already destined for an ending.

His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

It might be a curse, a plea for mercy, or just a belated sigh.

Before he could even finish speaking, Lin Feng's fingers tightened suddenly, and with a crisp snap, Meng Shentong's neck was broken.

The black lotus instantly devoured all five corpses.

Five corpses of Golden Core cultivators, one of whom was the peak Golden Core cultivator and the sect leader of the Green Wood Sect.

The black lotus was quickly refined into the purest essence of cultivation.

A surge of powerful spiritual energy rushed towards Lin Feng's dantian like a flood bursting its banks.

Under the impact of this immense spiritual power,

The round and full golden pill in Lin Feng's dantian actually made a crisp sound.

A golden crack appeared on the surface of the golden pill.

The long-dormant source of life within the Golden Core

Catalyzed by this immense spiritual power, it began to grow rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Like a seed breaking through the soil, the cracks on its surface multiply, and the golden light grows ever brighter.

A terrifying aura, far surpassing that of the Golden Core Realm, began to emanate from Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was taken aback, subconsciously looked down at his dantian, and then blurted out:

"Holy crap, he's about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the sky suddenly changed color.

The once clear, cloudless blue sky was instantly covered by thick, dark clouds that surged in from all directions.

The dark clouds spread rapidly like spilled ink.

The sky for hundreds of miles around was dyed black, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Lightning flashed faintly in the dark clouds, lightning bolts danced wildly, and a deep rumble of thunder rolled from the depths of the clouds.

A powerful pressure from heaven and earth, enough to make all living things tremble, descended from the sky.

Breaking through from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage will trigger the Three-Nine Minor Heavenly Tribulation.

It has been said since ancient times in the cultivation world that forming the Golden Core is extremely difficult.

Forming a Nascent Soul is even more difficult, and the most difficult thing is this Heavenly Tribulation.

Although the Tribulation of the Third Nine Heavens is called "small"...

But that's in relation to the great tribulation of ascension. For Golden Core cultivators...

These three bolts of heavenly lightning were enough to cause countless brilliant geniuses to perish with resentment.

Countless Golden Core cultivators in the cultivation world have fallen victim to the Nascent Soul Tribulation.

Lin Feng didn't expect to break through to the Nascent Soul stage so quickly.

He originally planned to return to the Cangxuan Sect after things were settled here.

Find a safe place to retreat and break through the bottleneck.

That way, he would have ample time to set up defensive formations and prepare tribulation-crossing pills and magical treasures.

But now, everything has happened so suddenly.

This made Lin Feng feel guilty.

Although he is usually fearless, he is not afraid of anything, especially when it comes to things like heavenly lightning.

Lin Feng wasn't sure either.

Ordinary defensive magical artifacts are no different from paper when faced with heavenly lightning.

He didn't know if his current physical strength could withstand the bombardment of heavenly lightning.

If he can't withstand it, he'll truly become the biggest joke in the cultivation world.

He was struck dead by heavenly lightning shortly after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

He immediately unleashed the Five Elements Sword Formation, pushing the five flying swords to their limits.

A five-colored, interwoven defensive light shield formed above their heads.

At the same time, he took out several defensive magical artifacts from his storage space.

Activate everything that can be activated, and put on everything that can be worn.

He was wrapped up in layers of clothing, looking like an iron barrel.

He then prepared himself to do everything in his power so that if he couldn't hold on any longer, he could immediately hide in the Black Lotus Space.

The Black Lotus Space was his last trump card for survival.

Although it's unknown whether the power of the heavenly tribulation can penetrate the spatial barrier, it's still better than standing still and waiting to die.

The dark clouds pressed lower and lower, and the lightning within them became increasingly dense.

All living beings within a radius of hundreds of miles could feel that suffocating pressure from heaven and earth.

Birds and beasts scattered in panic, and even the insects in the ground desperately burrowed into the ground.

Su Mei, the Palace Master of Yulan Palace, who had not gone far, and Ji Canghai, the Grand Elder of Cangxuan Sect, both felt this sudden change in the world.

They stopped in their tracks, turned around and looked in the direction where the dark clouds were gathering, their faces filled with shock.

"Is this the Tribulation of the Ninth Heaven? Is someone about to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

Su Mei gasped in shock, her usually aloof and indifferent face showing an unusual expression of disbelief.

"Could it be that old bastard Meng Shentong? He's been stuck at the peak of the Golden Core stage for so many years, he should have made a breakthrough by now."

Ji Canghai frowned and muttered to himself, but secretly felt incredibly envious.

"Or perhaps Li Xuanyang? The Diyuan Sect suffered a great calamity, and he was stimulated, which led to a breakthrough in his mental state, but instead attracted the Heavenly Tribulation?" An elder from the Cangxuan Sect guessed.

Whether it was Su Mei, Ji Canghai, or any other Golden Core cultivators who sensed the aura of the Heavenly Tribulation, they all rushed towards the direction where the dark clouds were gathering.

Someone is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the South China Border Region.

The shock of this news was no less than the arrival of Yu Liang, a powerful expert at the Nascent Soul Realm.
