The remnants of the Tribulation Thunder fell from above Qi Tian’s head, charging directly into his meridians, and then ran rampant like a crazed bull within them.

The speed of the Tribulation Thunder was simply too fast; even after entering Qi Tian’s meridians, it moved more swiftly than lightning.

Qi Tian had no time to react at all and could only let this residual Tribulation Thunder wreak havoc in his meridians, causing every inch to feel as though it was about to burst, bringing a searing pain that made Qi Tian wish for death. It was only because Qi Tian had always emphasized a solid foundation in his cultivation that his meridians, compared to those of other cultivators, were not only more numerous but also tougher and more resilient. Otherwise, this sudden incident would have ruptured his meridians, and Qi Tian would have faced a great deal of trouble.

Almost instantaneously, the Tribulation Thunder ravaged a full circle through Qi Tian’s meridians. Regardless of whether the meridians were large or small, whether they were main channels or exceptional vessels, none could escape the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation.

After rampaging through Qi Tian’s meridians, the Tribulation Thunder still had no intention of stopping as it rushed towards his Sea of Consciousness, seemingly intent on causing trouble there.

Qi Tian thought to himself, “This is bad.” Compared to the meridians, the Sea of Consciousness plays an even more crucial role for a cultivator, and cannot tolerate the slightest damage. He hurriedly sank his Divine Sense into the Sea of Consciousness, trying to stop the Tribulation Thunder, but its speed was too great and his Divine Sense could not keep up. Just as his Divine Sense barely entered the Nether Sea, the Tribulation Thunder plunged into it.

The Sea of Consciousness is a mysterious place. Though it resides within the human body and is connected to the cultivator’s meridians, it may not seem large, but upon truly entering the Sea of Consciousness, one discovers it is actually quite spacious. The size of this space is often related to the cultivator’s innate talent, cultivation technique, and many other factors. Generally speaking, the larger the Sea of Consciousness, the more limitless the cultivator’s future achievements can be.

Qi Tian’s Sea of Consciousness was no small expanse; if one were to view it with human eyesight, it would create the illusion that it spans fifty or sixty acres, incredibly vast.

With the Tribulation Thunder entering such a large space, it naturally moved as freely as a fish in water, darting about and roaming everywhere. For Qi Tian’s Divine Sense to chase after this Tribulation Thunder in such a large area was extremely difficult, and not something that could be achieved in a short time.

Qi Tian dared not waste a single moment in his Sea of Consciousness, a place that could not tolerate any errors. Should the Tribulation Thunder cause even a trace of damage here, Qi Tian might need to exert a hundred or eighty times more effort to mend it in the future. Moreover, if the damage was too severe, no amount of effort would suffice to fully repair it.

Seeing that his Divine Sense could not catch up with the Tribulation Thunder, Qi Tian did not overthink it. With a slight movement of his mind, he rallied all his Transporting Whirlwinds, commanding them to enter his Nether Sea and pursue the Tribulation Thunder.

Each Transporting Whirlwind could vary greatly in size. After entering Qi Tian’s Sea of Consciousness, they obeyed his commands, avoiding additional damage to his Sea of Consciousness while focusing on the chase for the Tribulation Thunder.

Though the Tribulation Thunder was fast, the Transporting Whirlwinds were no slouches in speed, and they had the significant advantage of numbers. In the enclosed space of the Sea of Consciousness, they could surround the Tribulation Thunder instead of merely following in its wake and eating dust.

Soon, the Tribulation Thunder was trapped in a small area. This Tribulation Thunder seemed to possess some intelligence; realizing that there was no escape, it suddenly changed direction, charging towards the central area of the Sea of Consciousness where Qi Tian’s Gold Core resided.

If the Sea of Consciousness cannot endure any damage, then the issue with Qi Tian’s Gold Core was not a matter of whether it could allow damage, but rather that it couldn’t bear the slightest touch. The slightest external contact could cause irreversible harm to Qi Tian’s Gold Core.

Qi Tian quickly grew anxious. He urgently gathered all his Transporting Whirlwinds and gave his all to chase after the Tribulation Thunder, trying to block it before it could touch his Gold Core. Sadly, the Transporting Whirlwinds were a bit too slow, and the Tribulation Thunder sped straight for Qi Tian’s Gold Core. As Qi Tian watched in shock, the Tribulation Thunder struck his Gold Core precisely.

Qi Tian cursed inwardly, “It’s over.” He had racked his brains and exhausted all his methods to hold on until now. Yet, to his dismay, he had still ultimately failed at the last moment as the Tribulation Thunder directly struck his Gold Core. Considering the fragility of his Gold Core, it simply could not endure a direct assault from the Tribulation Thunder. Under its bombardment, Qi Tian’s Gold Core, if not completely shattered into dust, would likely be cracked and difficult to repair.

As the Tribulation Thunder exhausted all its strength in the assault on Qi Tian’s Gold Core, the two made contact and the Tribulation Thunder disappeared. Once the bright silver flashes brought by the Tribulation Thunder vanished, Qi Tian hastily searched for his Gold Core. He knew well that it was impossible for the Gold Core to remain unscathed after enduring the strike from the Tribulation Thunder, but still clung to a sliver of hope.
