Chapter 296 Nine Heavens Elemental Spirit Tribulation!

It had been a few days since the Golden Ao Island’s wedding banquet. “Brother Sect Master, it’s no longer within our reach. Ah.”

In the Dragon Palace of the East Ocean, two figures were hugging each other in the corner of the huge bed in the Second Prince’s palace. Jiang Si’er did not know how to comfort Ao Yi. She could only lean closer to her husband and say softly, “Hubby, why did you sigh? The Sect Master has already taken great care of us. He has done his best for the dragon race. Previously, didn’t the elders say that when you entered the Heavenly Courts, the dragon race’s luck had clearly increased a little? After the 16 sea-patrolling low-ranked gods returned, the dragon race’s luck had increased again. These are all benefits that the Sect Master has given us.” “This is called laughing and sighing. I’m happy for Brother Sect Master,” said Ao Yi with a smile. “Now, Brother Sect Master can sit at the same table as the top mighty figures in the world. Back then, Brother Sect Master was just...” “Hubby.”

Jiang Si’er suddenly interrupted Ao Yi and said in a low voice, “You reminded me not to mention anything about Brother Sect Master. You cannot mention it to me either.” Ao Yi was immediately alarmed. He immediately checked the array formations outside the hall and heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you for the reminder, Si’er.”

Jiang Si’er said gently, “A powerful enemy is bearing hatred and jealousy towards Sect Master because of the dragon race. We can’t make such a mistake.” Ao Yi hugged his wife even tighter and spoke gently. “Your Highness, the Prince of the West Ocean, Ao Shi, has arrived in the palace. Mother Dragon invited Your Highness to meet him. She said that she has something to discuss with him.”

Jiang Si’er heard the sea maiden reporting outside the hall and whimpered before hiding under the thin blanket.

Ao Yi’s mouth gently twitched a few times... “Got it. I’ll go over now.” “Hubby.” Jiang Si’er stuck her head out of the blanket and whispered, “Remember to discuss everything with the Sect Master. Although there’s nothing major in the four seas recently, I still feel uneasy.” “Alright.” Ao Yi gave Jiang Si’er a reassuring look and quickly dressed up before heading out of the hall.

An hour later, Ao Yi frowned and returned. Jiang Si’er, who had already dressed up, quickly walked over. “Hubby, what’s wrong?” “It has nothing to do with us,” said Ao Yi. “Cousin Ao Shi is here to invite our elder brother to the West Ocean Dragon Palace for a banquet. This time, the crown princes of the Dragon Palaces of the Four Seas are gathering. They’re probably just seeking pleasure and it’s not something serious.” “Why are you frowning then?” “I keep feeling that something is amiss.” Ao Yi pondered for a while and recalled what he had seen previously. “Today, not only is Cousin Ao Shi here, but also Cousin Ao Mou from the South Ocean. You might not know what cousin Ao Mou’s personality is like. He doesn’t like rules and restrictions. He’s a little unrestrained. Moreover, he’s quite indulgent towards himself and often mingles with maidservants...” Jiang Si’er blinked. “There are quite a number of such disciples in the dragon race.” “Tsk.” Ao Yi said in a low voice, “The last time I saw my cousin, Ao Mou, was two years ago. He was in low spirits, his Yang energy was depleted, his dragon origin was unstable, and his aura was weak.” He continued, “However, when I saw Cousin Ao Mou today, his eyes are filled with divine light, and his aura is dense and stable. His face is rosy, and his dragon origin is deep. He seems to have become a completely different person.”

“You...” Jiang Si’er chided.” Can’t he change his personality? Or has he taken some supplementary pills?” “There’s a problem.” Ao Yi shook his head. He stood up and paced around the bed. He pondered carefully. “However, I can’t disturb Brother Sect Master because of this.” Jiang Si’er hurriedly said, “Husband, don’t put yourself in danger. Sect Master once said that you should tell him everything, no matter how major or trivial the matter may be.” “Don’t worry.” Ao Yi thought carefully. If I were Brother Sect Master, how should I deal with this matter?

Soon, Ao Yi had an idea.

First, be steady. “I’ll go and discuss this matter with the elders. I’ll see if I can invite a few experts to secretly follow me to the West Ocean to take a look.” Then, Ao Yi rushed out of the hall.

Jiang Si’er wanted to say something but stopped herself.

In the chess room at the back of the mountain of Little Qiong Peak, there were cards from a half-finished game placed on the table.

Yu Shi, who had just started cultivating, was meditating in the room next door.

Two beautiful figures and a towering figure were gathered at the stairs of the attic, looking up with concern. Not long after, Jiu Jiu walked down the stairs quietly and used her immortal power to create a barrier. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief. Youqin Xuanya asked, “Junior Sister Ling’e, have you cultivated?” “No, I fell asleep.” Jiu Jiu frowned and sighed. “This is too scary!” Jiang Lin’er hurriedly asked, “What happened? I saw her riding a cloud back just now. She was exhausted and seemed to have lost her soul.” “I don’t know either.” Jiu Jiu frowned and said seriously, “I heard her mumbling something. Senior Brother wants her to... do it 5,400 times... or something.” Youqin Xuanya was confused. “5,400 times?” “Pfft!”

Jiang Lin’er almost burst out laughing. “Xuanya, don’t think too much. Little Jiu is just joking.” Youqin Xuanya tilted her head and fell into deeper confusion. “Hehehe.” Jiu Jiu jumped down in two steps. The silk thread on her hemp garment was being tugged. Jiu Jiu smiled and said, “He wants her to copy the sutra 5,400 times. Master’s Wife, you’re thinking too much. Ling’e is still being despised by her senior brother because her Dao base is unstable.” At the mention of the Tribulation Transcendence, as Ling’e’s Grandmaster, Jiang Lin’er could not help but look serious. “Ling’e is about to transcend the tribulation. If her Dao base is really unstable, she should suffer some hardship. However, how can copying sutras strengthen one’s Dao base?” “If Senior Brother Changshou asked Junior Sister Ling’e to do it, it would naturally be beneficial to her.” Youqin Xuanya said, “Just believe in Senior Brother Changshou.” Xiong Lingli nodded. “My cousin is awesome!” “The problem is, why is Lingle’s Dao base unstable?” Jiu Jiu pursed her lips and said, “I’ve seen Ling’e’s Dao base a few times before when she was having an enlightenment. Her Dao base Green Lotus has more than eight petals. Her Dao base is much more stable than mine back then.”

historical

“Hey.” Jiang Lin’er suddenly interrupted Jiu Jiu and pointed at the ceiling. “Look!” The few of them looked up and saw a two-inch diameter green lotus flower floating slowly on the ceiling The green color was faint, and the nine petals were glowing. There seemed to be a wisp of fragrance spreading everywhere. Jiu Jiu widened her almond-shaped eyes and exclaimed, “Nine petals!” “That’s not right.” Jiang Lin’er’s eyes shone brightly as she saw Ling’e’s current situation. In the quiet room on the second floor, Ling’e, who was originally lying on the bed, was wrapped in spiritual light. She sat cross-legged in the air, surrounded by blurry words. Those words were gathering behind Ling’e. There was a faint image of a book that was about to form. “Quick!” Jiang Lin’er immediately started to call out, “Ling’e is about to transcend the tribulation! Quick! Quick!” Jiu Jiu said anxiously, “What are you doing, Master’s Wife!?!” Youqin Xuanya remained silent and immediately rushed upstairs.

“Everyone, don’t be anxious. She is currently comprehending the Dao before she becomes an immortal.”

At that moment, a breeze blew in from outside the door. Li Changshou appeared in front of them.

She’s getting an enlightenment so quickly? Li Changshou was slightly surprised. He thought that Ling’e would need to rest for half a month before she could make a breakthrough... No, that’s not right. Li Changshou stared at Ling’e, who was on the second floor. His gaze landed on the image of the book behind Ling’e. He could vaguely see the word ‘stable’ on it. Uh, entering the Dao through the Steadiness Sutra?

The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched a few times, and he was a little confused. Fortunately, after carefully observing for a while, he realized that his junior sister had indeed walked a different path on the foundation of the Inaction Sutra...

There was nothing wrong with that Dao. She could also hope for the future. Li Changshou said, “Grandmaster, please tell the sect that Ling’e will be going outside the sect to transcend the tribulation later. Tell the disciples of the sect not to approach and disturb her, lest they get injured by the Heavenly Tribulation.” Jiang Lin’er said, “Alright, I’ll go to the Hundred Mortal Hall now and tell them that it was said by my Fugui!” Youqin Xuanya asked, “Senior Brother, is there anything I can do?” “The Tribulation Transcendence is a personal matter.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Ling’e has already made sufficient preparations. I will protect her later.” Jiu Jiu volunteered. “I’ll go and cheer for Ling’e!” Xiong Lingli asked softly, “Can I help?” “Alright!” Jiu Jiu waved her hand. “You’ll be the drum!”

Xiong Lingli immediately agreed bitterly. There was also some laughter in the pavilion. It was different from Qi Yuan’s hesitant Heavenly Tribulation. It was also different from Li Changshou’s Heavenly Tribulation which had repeated cycles.

Ling’e’s Heavenly Tribulation arrived rather gently.

After the last Dao Enlightenment session before she became an immortal, Ling’e slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with brilliant spiritual light. Her entire body was wrapped in a faint cloud, and her snow-white skin looked fragile. Li Changshou sent a voice transmission. “The Heavenly Tribulation has arrived. Are you ready?”

“Yes.” Ling’e nodded slightly. She had already sensed it. She thought that she would be a little worried and afraid, but when she heard her senior brother’s voice, she felt at ease. What can the Heavenly Tribulation do? After transcending the Heavenly Tribulation, I will have a longer lifespan and I can accompany Senior Brother on the peak... Ling’e took a deep breath and quickly checked the storage Dharma treasures on her body. She looked at the various treasure pouches that were “specially used”for Tribulation Transcendence and were placed in different categories. She felt more confident. She changed into a special Dharma treasure chiffon dress and put on a chiffon dress. Her long hair was cascading down and she tied it up simply. She carried a short sword and a jade flute. She went downstairs and smiled at her senior brother. When she pushed open the door, she was already surrounded by dark clouds. Boundless spiritual energy surged over, and the clouds above the dark clouds churned.

The immortals in various parts of the sect were alarmed as their immortal senses gathered there. Li Changshou waved his sleeve and a white cloud lifted him and Ling’e up. He rode the cloud towards the sect. Li Changshou asked, “Have you checked everything?” “Yes.” Ling’e nodded slightly. “Senior Brother, don’t worry. I’m ready.” “Put this in your mouth.” Li Changshou took out a golden pill wrapped in immortal power. Ling’e did not even think about it and did not ask what it was. She picked up the pill and placed it in her mouth. The corners of her lips curled up. Li Changshou reminded her, “Don’t swallow this pill directly. This is your last trump card and you should have it just in case. It’s for your survival. It is very expensive.” “It’s in my mouth... I can’t even speak properly...” “Stop talking.” “Okay.” Ling’e agreed obediently. She looked up at the dark clouds, but her Dao heart was peaceful.

At the mountain gate, more than ten figures were waiting for the two of them.

Her Grandmaster Jiang Lin’er, Master Qi Yuan, Little Aunt-Master Jiu Yushi, Uncle-Master Jiu Wu, Jiu Shi, the other four Jiu Immortals, Senior Sister Yan’er, Junior Brother Qi Qi...

Lingle bowed with a Dao salute. Jiang Lin’er smiled and said, “After transcending the Heavenly Tribulation, I’ll ask your Uncle-Grandmaster Wang Qing to take action and knock your senior brother unconscious before throwing him into your room!” Ling’e blushed. She wanted to nod but did not dare to. She could only look at her senior brother weakly. Li Changshou stood at the side with a smile. Qi Yuan, on the other hand, reminded him worriedly, “I have experience in transcending the tribulation. If you can’t take it head-on, don’t force yourself to take it head-on. Changshou, have you prepared that pill for your junior sister?” “I’ve prepared another type of pill.” Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Master, don’t worry. When you were transcending the tribulation, my cultivation level and my abilities were insufficient. I’m now already prepared for Junior Sister’s tribulation.” “That’s good, that’s good.” Qi Yuan sighed. Jiang Lin’er and Qi Yuan immediately made way for Li Changshou and Ling’e. There were encouraging words coming from the surroundings. Ling’e bowed one by one, but she could not say anything. After leaving the sect, they headed to the place for the Tribulation Transcendence, which was on the desolate mountain ahead.

Qi Yuan and the others followed on a cloud and stopped five kilometers away. Li Changshou walked forward another five kilometers and told Ling’e where the Tribulation Transcendence was. “Go.”

“Senior Brother...”

“Steady.”

“Yes!”

Ling’e nodded slightly. With her left hand as a guide, she floated up. Her skirt fluttered, and her long hair danced in the wind. She was like a fairy that had flown away from the painting. She flew to the desolate mountain that was filled with signs of Tribulation Transcendence. Boom! Boom! The thunder rumbled above her head. Ling’e looked up and saw that the black clouds in the sky had begun to rotate. Right, where’s Little Aunt-Master?

At that moment, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard from the side. Lingle turned her head and saw that on a cloud a few kilometers away, Jiu Jiu was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a headband. She was waving the drumstick and striking the drum. Xiong Lingli stood at the side and kept hitting the gong. The two of them shouted in unison, “Ling’e will succeed!” “Transcend the tribulation and become an immortal!”

Youqin Xuanya stood behind the two of them. She curled her right leg up and pointed her left foot at the ground. She was dressed in a fiery-red dress, and she looked extremely beautiful. She was holding onto sixteen flagpoles with her slender fingers. On the flags were the phrases ‘Ling’e will definitely win’ and ‘Transcend the tribulation to become an immortal’. Ling’e could not help but support her forehead with one hand. For some reason, she felt a little... ashamed.

“Don’t be distracted.”

Li Changshou sent a voice transmission and rushed over. Ling’e immediately perked up and took out Dharma treasures and Dharma artifacts from her treasure pouch. She pushed them a thousand feet away from her and wrapped them with Dharma powers, ready to use them at any time.

They were items like the Faraday Cage and the other special Dharma artifacts of the Little Qiong Peak. There were three types and a total of nine Dharma artifacts.

There were six Dharma treasures that could be used to protect one’s essence soul during the Tribulation Transcendence. Half of them were high-grade immortal treasures.

There were four Dharma treasures that could quickly gather spiritual energy and restore one’s Dharma powers. For prevention against sneak attacks, triggering miniature array foundations, there were twelve... There were two bottles of second-grade Spirit Pills that could increase one’s resistance to the Thunder Tribulation. There were six bottles of fourth-grade Spirit Pills that could continuously heal one’s injuries. There were three bottles of third-grade Spirit Pills that continuously emitted medicinal effects and sped up the recovery of immortal power. There was a bottle of pills that could restore one’s essence soul.

There were also three pills that could quickly repair the Dao base and help one recover from trauma... and so on.

Five kilometers away, in the direction of the sect, the immortals from the Immortal Du Sect who had witnessed that scene had complicated expressions. Jiang Lin’er muttered softly, “When did our Little Qiong Peak become so wealthy? Not to mention the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, people will believe that it is meant for transcending the Golden Immortal Tribulation!”

Qi Yuan chuckled, his eyes filled with comfort.

“Ahem, ahem.” A few coughs were heard. A slender figure descended from the sky and landed in front of them. He stood calmly with his hands behind his back.

The person who came was naturally the Sect Leader of the Immortal Du Sect, Ji Wuyou.

Ji Wuyou smiled and said, “These are all bestowed by me. Ling’e is a rare cultivation genius in the Immortal Du Sect. It’s reasonable for me to take care of her.”

The immortals of the Immortal Du Sect were enlightened. Ji Wuyou smiled and squinted. From the looks of it, the identity of the Great Daoist Master’s daughter-in-law is confirmed. If anything happens during the Tribulation Transcendence later, I will help her pass the test even if I have to destroy a few Dharma treasures.

At that moment, the Tribulation Cloud had begun to form the Lightning Well vortex. It suddenly stopped. Waves of spiritual energy began to gather from all directions. The Tribulation Cloud, which had already been formed, began to grow again! Li Changshou did not feel anything strange. The Heavenly Tribulation that appeared just now was the Heavenly Tribulation that Ling’e should have withstood with her potential. At that moment, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation began to increase because of Ling’e’s current Dao base. Li Changshou quickly calculated in his heart. The success rate was still 98%...

“Huh?”

Li Changshou sensed something and looked up. He saw a gray cloud suddenly fly out of the Tribulation Cloud and stop above his head.

Why?

The figure that was hiding in the forest and moving forward 1,500 kilometers east of the Immortal Du Sect suddenly stopped.

It was a black leopard with a young girl on its back.

Recently, the black leopard had regained a portion of his memories from his previous life. He brought his wife to a forest at the edge of the South Continent to search for the treasures that he had buried when he was called ‘Daoist Priest Yuan Ze’ in his previous life. At that moment, he looked towards the east and vaguely saw a Tribulation Cloud. On the Tribulation Cloud, a group of fairies seemed to be dancing

He seethed.

“It’s actually the Nine Heavens Pure Spirit Tribulation, which is ranked third in the Immortal Ascension Tribulation!”

The black leopard gasped. The young girl hurriedly said, “Say it simply, don’t make a long speech.” “She can’t transcend such a huge tribulation, she definitely can’t!”
