Chapter 412: Heavenly Tribulation Triggered! Five-Colored Tribulation Cloud!

Lu Qing landed on the peak and surveyed the surroundings.

The peak he had chosen was towering and majestic, far more imposing than the surrounding peaks. Towering into the clouds, its imposing presence was far greater than the surrounding peaks.   He felt a sense of

lofty ambition, akin to ascending to the summit, overlooking all the other mountains below—a sentiment perfectly suited to his current state of mind.   This time, to transcend the tribulation, he would reach the summit!   Lu Qing’s mind was free and filled with heroic spirit. He looked up at the sky, without a moment’s hesitation, instantly channeling all his aura, channeling the profound energy within his mind.   Suddenly, the clouds and the sky shifted, and a strange phenomenon unfolded overhead.   A powerful divine might descended, and a vast vortex of tribulation clouds slowly emerged.   With the appearance of this strange phenomenon, all living beings within a hundred miles felt it.   The terrifying divine might made countless creatures within the mountain tremble in fear.   Those near Lu Qing’s peak, in particular, fled desperately as if their end had arrived.   ”What is that?”   ”It’s a tribulation cloud! Someone is actually undergoing a tribulation in these deep mountains!”   ”Such a terrifying divine power! Who is undergoing this tribulation?”   ”Could this be the legendary Golden Core Tribulation?”   The vortex of tribulation clouds unleashed by Lu Qing was so devastating that its terrifying might could be felt from a hundred miles away.   The emergence of the secret realm had already attracted numerous martial arts masters above the Innate Realm to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.   Furthermore, due to the actions of the white-robed youth within the secret realm, many masters had fled to the dense forests and hidden themselves.   Feeling the might of the tribulation clouds, they were all shocked.   They were incredibly curious about who was undergoing this tribulation in these deep mountains.   However, despite their curiosity, none of the masters dared approach. Even   from dozens or hundreds of miles away, they could sense the terrifying might of the heavens, and a subtly suffocating feeling filled their hearts.   If they moved any closer, they would likely collapse before they could even get close enough to withstand the might.   Furthermore, a master attempting a breakthrough feared being watched.   If they displeased the being about to undergo the tribulation, they would be dead.   ”It’s time to undergo the Golden Core Tribulation.”   Within the Lihuo Cauldron, “Yan” was also sensing the movements outside.   It felt an indescribable shock within it.   Although it had witnessed Lu Qing’s cultivation throughout,   and had a deep understanding of this prodigy’s cultivation talent,   it was still astonished when it actually saw Lu Qing about to undergo the Golden Core Tribulation.   Too fast.   Lu Qing’s cultivation speed was truly extraordinary.   How long had it been since it first met Lu Qing?   Less than a year at most.   And in less than a year, the young man, who had only reached the Xiantian realm, was already on the verge of completing the tribulation and achieving the Golden Core.   Such a terrifying cultivation speed, let alone seeing it, “Yan” had never heard of it.   In the entire ancient era of immortal cultivation, even at the peak of the immortal path, there had never been such a monster!   ”Yan” stood in the spiritual instrument space, carefully sensing the movements outside.   In the corner, a small spirit watched it.   ”What’s wrong with this artifact spirit?”   The demon cultivator’s spirit frowned at Yan’s expression.   However, he didn’t dare to approach and ask.   After spending some time together, he could tell that the artifact spirit disliked him deeply. He   even suggested to Lu Qing several times, right in front of him, that he should be completely eliminated.

Therefore, he had always been subservient and utterly unafraid of it.

After all, this was the territory of the weapon spirit, and he could never defeat it.

“I wonder when I can earn my master’s trust and reclaim my body,” the demon cultivator thought helplessly.

“Is this my Golden Core Tribulation?”

Atop the mountain, Lu Qing looked at the swirling tribulation clouds still brewing above him, feeling the might enveloping him, his expression calm.

“Yes, it’s much more powerful than the original Innate Tribulation.

I just don’t know what color my tribulation cloud will be.”

The deeper the accumulation, the more powerful the tribulation one can trigger.

After successfully surviving the tribulation, the stronger the foundation will be.

So, Lu Qing was eager to see what color the tribulation cloud would be, based on his own accumulation.

“I wonder what color the young master’s tribulation cloud will be.”

In the Lihuo Cauldron, “Yan” was also speculating.

The power of a Golden Core Tribulation can be roughly inferred from the color of the tribulation cloud.

For example, the weakest tribulation is generally gray, while the next level is red, and even higher, it is gold.

However, golden tribulation clouds are already the highest level of tribulation clouds recorded in the ancient texts.

Throughout the ancient era of immortal cultivation, there were many geniuses, but few had ever triggered golden tribulation clouds.

And those geniuses who could trigger golden tribulation clouds and successfully transcend the tribulation, with the exception of a few who perished due to accidents,

all those who successfully thrived ultimately achieved Primordial Spirit Realm and became giants in the world of immortal cultivation.

“Red or gold? With the young master’s tribulation thunder, the tribulation clouds he triggered must be gold, and the deepest gold!”

Yan speculated confidently.

It couldn’t be helped; the shock Lu Qing had caused it was simply too great.

He could defeat a Jindan cultivator while still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and at that, a powerful and veteran Jindan cultivator.

This feat had never been achieved by any genius in the entire ancient era of immortal cultivation.

Therefore, it had every reason to believe that the tribulation clouds Lu Qing had triggered this time would be golden, and of the highest level!

“If nothing unexpected happens, it should be a golden tribulation cloud,”

Lu Qing also speculated.

From the legacy left by the Lihuo Sect, he knew that throughout the history of the immortal cultivation world, the highest level of tribulation clouds that had ever appeared during the Golden Core Tribulation was golden.

He was confident that his accumulated knowledge would rival that of any of the ancient immortal cultivation prodigies.

Therefore, his tribulation clouds should also be the highest level of golden.

Both the individual and the spirit artifact suspected that the impending tribulation clouds would be golden.

However, as the massive vortex of tribulation clouds continued to shrink and condense,

and finally, the brewing tribulation clouds took on a distinct color,

Lu Qing and Yan were stunned.

“One, two, three, four, five, five colors, a five-colored tribulation cloud?”

When Yan, in the spirit artifact space, saw the colors of the tribulation clouds, he nearly jumped out of his wits.

“How is this possible?!”

Yan’s face was filled with disbelief.

The colors of the tribulation clouds were simply beyond his expectations.

A five-colored tribulation cloud—never before had it appeared in the ancient immortal cultivation era.

Even in the ancient texts collected by the Lihuo Sect, which were suspected to be left over from the previous era of immortal cultivation, there was no record of the Golden Core Tribulation appearing in five colors!

This was completely beyond common sense and beyond “Yan’s” cognition.
