Chapter 1292: Chapter 790
On this day, the mana within Lu Qing’s body finally reached a limit, sensing an opportunity for a breakthrough.
Without hesitation, he directly invoked that elusive aura of tribulation.
In an instant, a massive surge of tribulation qi and deathly aura surged forth, engulfing him.
Fortunately, the underground cavern Lu Qing chose for his closed-door training was deep enough, and he had set up an array in advance.
Otherwise, the sheer vastness of this tribulation aura might have caught the attention of countless powerful beings.
Amidst the endless tribulation and deathly aura, Lu Qing remained unfazed.
Having already faced the six tribulations of the Primordial Spirit, he was extremely familiar with the Primordial Spirit’s tribulation.
Though this seventh tribulation of the Primordial Spirit was much more formidable than the previous ones, Lu Qing still managed to steady his heart and spirit, remaining unmoved.
Even the tribulations that manifested laws did not shake his Dao heart.
This Primordial Spirit tribulation lasted for seven days, and Lu Qing passed through it successfully without any danger, breaking through to the Seventh Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit, stepping truly into the Late-stage Primordial Spirit Realm.
"Finally reached the Seven Tribulation Realm."
Lu Qing clenched his fist, feeling the overwhelming power within him that could overturn mountains and seas, a satisfied expression on his face.
The Primordial Spirit realm has nine tribulations in total, with every three tribulations being a threshold, and after breaking through, one’s power would undergo a significant transformation.
This time, successfully stepping into the Seventh Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit, his strength could be said to have skyrocketed once again.
However, even though he broke through, Lu Qing did not immediately end his closed-door training.
Instead, after relaxing his heart and spirit, he started a new round of closed-door cultivation.
Although breaking through to the Seventh Tribulation elevated the quality of his mana, top-grade spiritual stones still provided substantial benefits to him.
Therefore, Lu Qing did not want to miss such a quick opportunity for improvement.
The stronger his power was now, the more confident he would be in what he had to do next.
Time flew by, and days passed by one after another.
Lu Qing continued his intense cultivation in the underground cavern, ignoring worldly matters.
Yet, the Holy Alliance on the surface couldn’t sit still.
It had been five years, and since that evil demon showed up in Zhou Tian City once, it had never appeared again.
No matter how they activated their spies to search, they couldn’t find a trace.
Even posting bounty missions at Netherworld Palace yielded no information.
It seemed that after that evil demon breached Zhou Tian City, it had left the Heavenly Origin Great World, disappearing without a trace.
But the Holy Alliance knew this was impossible. Given the cunning nature of that evil demon, it wasn’t likely he would stop after just breaching Zhou Tian City.
There must be a more powerful conspiracy brewing in the background.
"Lei Tian, how about it? Have you found any trace of that evil demon?"
In a light screen, a figure covered in fur with a lion’s head asked.
"No." The dignified middle-aged Lei Tian, clad in Thunder Magic Robe, shook his head and said, "That evil demon is excessively cunning, and having obtained the Gongsu Family’s accumulation of treasures over tens of thousands of years, he’s likely in hiding somewhere, consuming those treasures. How about your Demon Clan, have you not discovered anything?"
"No." The lion-headed figure also shook his head, "We had the White Flood Dragon King traverse the world, yet could not sense the bloodline fluctuations of its offspring. Perhaps that evil demon keeps that beast by his side, or he has used some Secret Technique or Exotic Treasure to block the bloodline connection between the two."
"Nothing your side either..."
Upon hearing this, Lei Tian felt his heart sink.
Although he had anticipated this result, hearing it for real still brought some disappointment.
For some reason, the more they couldn’t find the evil demon’s trace, the more he felt an ominous foreboding in his heart.
It was as if a shadow was cast over his heart and spirit, growing heavier and heavier.
The lion-headed figure had a similar premonition.
It remained silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Lei Tian, I feel we cannot remain passive like this. The evil demon is in the dark, we are in the light. Prolonged defense will surely lead to loss; we must take the initiative to strike back."
"We can’t even track down the evil demon’s whereabouts, how can we take the initiative?" Lei Tian asked, puzzled.
"Didn’t the Holy Alliance capture some cultivators with ties to him? As you say, that evil demon seems to be the protective kind, so why not use those cultivators to force him out?" The lion-headed figure suggested.
Lei Tian’s fingers trembled at the suggestion. In truth, this proposal had been discussed before in the Holy Alliance.
However, at the time, they couldn’t pass this strategy due to opposition from some elders.
Now that the lion-headed figure brought it up again, Lei Tian pondered deeply.
After a while, he said, "We’ll have to discuss this in the Holy Alliance."
"I don’t know why you hesitate, they’re just some Golden Core Realm cultivators. If they die, they die, what’s there to regret? Lei Tian, you must know that evil demon is an anomaly. If he fully consumes all of the Gongsu Family’s treasures, no one might be able to control him."
The lion-headed figure snorted coldly, then vanished, actively closing the Communication Array.
Leaving Lei Tian in place, pondering who knows what.
Rumble, rumble...
In the underground cavern, endless death qi and tribulation qi surrounded Lu Qing, mixed with terrifying streaks of Law Tribulation Thunder.
"Brother has broken through again."
Little Yan mumbled, watching the scene.
She had a feeling that after reaching the Primordial Spirit Realm, her brother’s cultivation speed seemed to have accelerated.
He had only been in closed-door training in the underground cavern for a short while, yet he had already crossed the tribulation for the second time.
"It’s normal. Ah Qing is always like this when he goes into closed-door training."
Little Li, on the other hand, seemed unfazed.
There was no helping it; having been by Lu Qing’s side for so long, Little Li had witnessed such scenes countless times already.
