第两千九百七十四章 化劫丹与九转灵蛇丹

Looking at the jade box in front of him, Lin Xuan's face showed satisfaction.

With his right hand raised, he flicked his fingers slightly. A "tap" sound reached his ears as a pill the size of a dragon eye appeared before his eyes.

Snow-white and lustrous like jade, it exuded an invigorating aura.

Transforming Tribulation Pill!

In fact, this was one of the Nine Immortals' Pills from Drifting Cloud Valley, but in terms of its preciousness, even if all the other Nine Immortals' Pills were combined, they would still fall short compared to this single pill.

There was no other reason. A cultivator at the Peak Shen Spirit Stage who swallowed this item could increase their chances of advancing through tribulation by more than ten percent.

Lin Xuan's ability to obtain such a treasure was indeed due to good fortune. After carefully examining it for a moment, he bravely lifted his head and swallowed it down.

The pill melted in his mouth as a warm current flowed into his dantian. It then transformed into strands of heat that flooded through his entire body.

"Phew!"

Lin Xuan exhaled the stale air from his chest, feeling incredibly refreshed.

But this was still not enough. He flicked his sleeves and a small red bottle flew up with the wind.

Compact and emitting an intense heat, it was Ten Thousand Year Fire Jade.

Of course, this was also its essence. Lin Xuan flicked his fingers again, pouring out another pill the size of a dragon eye from inside.

The spirit light flowed as if it were extraordinary. The Ninefold Spirit Serpent Pill lived up to its reputation indeed.

Compared to the Transforming Tribulation Pill, this Ten Thousand Year Fire Jade Pill was even more precious in terms of its rarity. It was well-known throughout the Three Realms.

A cultivator at the Peak Shen Spirit Stage who swallowed it could increase their chances of advancing through tribulation by twenty percent.

Unfortunately, there were few such pills due to the scarcity of their ingredients and the fact that only the True Demon Ancestor's Serpent could forge them. Moreover, even with its rare ingredients, the success rate was still low for ordinary cultivators.

To Lin Xuan, who had no connection or friendship with the Serpent, this was a significant risk. The Serpent's power might not match Ice Spirit, but it was still among the True Demon Ancestors and far beyond his current capabilities.

Lin Xuan had gone through great lengths to obtain this Ten Thousand Year Fire Jade Pill, risking much in the process. After swallowing the pill, he continued to take several other medicinal herbs, though their effects were inferior compared to the previous ones, they still provided some benefit.

With a dozen or so spirit pills and magical medicines consumed, Lin Xuan began to refine their power, pushing against the tribulation stage's bottleneck.

...

A few days later, Lin Xuan sighed in relief as he stood up from his meditation spot. From a certain perspective, he was now considered a Tribulation Stage cultivator. However, compared to before, apart from his realm and more condensed spiritual energy, there had been no change in his strength.

This was due to the tribulation stage itself. It was known that tribulation was the final realm of cultivation, also the most difficult one. To fully break through this bottleneck required three steps.

Firstly, one needed to overcome the bottleneck between Shen Spirit and Tribulation stages.

The process was arduous; many cultivators failed at this step.

With the help of spirit pills and magical medicines, Lin Xuan had a good chance but still expected some twists. However, when he attempted to break through, something unexpected happened.

The tribulation stage's bottleneck did not present any hindrance, breaking down effortlessly as if it were nothing. This left Lin Xuan speechless for quite some time.

Unexpectedly, the hardest step turned out to be the easiest.

Lin Xuan was now at the Tribulation Stage, but his strength had not increased in the slightest; he remained almost the same as before.

In the cultivation world, this situation was known as a pseudo-Tribulation Stage.

There were still two more steps left for him. If he failed, it would be a disaster. But if successful, Lin Xuan's strength would soar, making him a true Tribulation Stage cultivator.

The next two stages involved Heavenly Tribulation and Heart Demon Tribulation.

They were straightforward concepts but not easy to pass through.

Firstly, the Heavenly Tribulation was much more powerful than the longevity-extending Essence Tribulation. Its power was directly proportional to the tribulation stage's strength, with luck playing a significant role in whether one could survive it.

Typically, among ten pseudo-Tribulation Stage cultivators, only one or two might manage to pass this stage. Even if they did, there still lay the Heart Demon Tribulation ahead.

For ordinary heart demons, it was manageable as most were mentally resilient and could endure with a bit of determination. However,域外天魔 posed a much greater threat. A mere trace of their demonic influence could make one shudder in fear. Only a few might survive out of a hundred, making this stage heavily reliant on luck.

Regardless, Lin Xuan had successfully broken through the first stage and naturally became a pseudo-Tribulation Stage cultivator.

This was worth celebrating, but he wondered if his luck would hold for the next two stages.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan shook his head. Such anxiety could lead to mistakes; the best approach was to let things take their natural course, as one should adapt to challenges as they come...

As he thought this, Lin Xuan remained calm. However, at that moment, he sensed a change in the surrounding spiritual energy.

Could it be...?

Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel astonished. He had never attempted breaking through the tribulation stage before, yet ancient texts and records described what happened after passing the first step—Heavenly Tribulation would descend within one hundred days.

The later it came, the better, as this gave cultivators ample time to prepare. Moreover, the later it arrived, the weaker its power was likely to be.

For example, if the Heavenly Tribulation appeared on the hundredth day, having a ten percent chance of survival might be too optimistic, but the risk of falling would be negligible. Conversely, appearing within ten days could result in only a few survivors.

Thinking about these descriptions, Lin Xuan's expression was clear—having just passed the first stage and faced Heavenly Tribulation so soon, how powerful would it be?
