Chapter 1431: Chapter 1390 Heavenly Tribulation

The flesh and blood in front of Lu Chuan had almost burst into a mist of blood, revealing ghastly white bones. The piercing pain struck, causing Lu Chuan’s vision to go black, nearly making him lose consciousness.

“Didn’t they say… there’s no feeling?”

Lu Chuan could even see his slow-moving internal organs through the wound in his abdomen!

“But I really don’t feel any different, Lu Chuan, are you… are you okay?”

“I don’t know…”

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth tightly. The power of the Blood Pill gradually spread within his body, surging relentlessly. His flesh constantly ruptured and disintegrated, his body resembling a shattered porcelain doll, covered in cracks. Blood gushed from the fissures, transforming Lu Chuan into a bloodied figure within mere breaths!

In a daze, Lu Chuan seemed to see thousands of resentful spirits swarming from all directions, gnawing at his flesh and tearing at his soul. This unprecedented agony nearly caused Lu Chuan to faint!

“The speed at which the Demon Tribe refines demonic power far surpasses that of humans refining spiritual power. By directly swallowing a whole Blood Pill without any preparation, you’re practically courting death.”

At this moment, the voice of the Tower Spirit echoed in Lu Chuan’s ear.

“What… what should I do?”

“Hold on. At this point, I have no way of helping. If you persevere, you can break through to the Spirit Splitting Realm. If not, you’ll likely end up exploding and dying. However, with the presence of the Nascent Soul, there might still be a chance of resurrection.”

“Isn’t there any way to ease this?”

Lu Chuan could only feel like he was about to be killed by the pain!

Even when facing the strongest enemies, Lu Chuan had never experienced such pain, like ten thousand ants devouring his heart, tearing his bowels to shreds!

“Did you think consuming the Blood Pill to enhance your cultivation was a shortcut? Cultivation has never had any shortcuts. If you want to rapidly increase your cultivation in a short time, you must pay the corresponding price. Otherwise, everyone in the world would take shortcuts, and why would anyone bitterly practice?”

Tower Spirit looked down on the act of consuming a Blood Pill as it equated to insulting others’ efforts. However, considering that Lu Chuan didn’t personally collect the materials for the Blood Pill, and he has something important to do presently, the Tower Spirit refrained from saying more.

“Stay strong, Lu Chuan. Stay strong, and you’ll reach the Spirit Splitting Realm. A single Blood Pill can be worth decades or even hundreds of years of others’ hard cultivation; it’s a worthwhile trade.”

“Are you… talking sarcastically?”

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth hard, emitting a beast-like roar. The Blood Pill continued to spread, releasing violent spiritual power that constantly rampaged through his spiritual veins!

Yet, at the same time, the Blood Pill’s effect fully manifested at this moment!

Lu Chuan’s momentum suddenly soared, reaching the Nascent Soul Eighth Layer!

If he had cultivated on his own, it would have taken him six months or even longer, but now it had only been half a Shi Chen.

Furthermore, the power of the Blood Pill had only been exhausted by less than a sixth!

On one hand, the realm breakthrough brought healing to the body, while on the other hand, the Blood Pill relentlessly released power, ravaging Lu Chuan’s flesh, pushing him to the brink of madness!

Seeing this scene, Yun Ji and Miao Conglu were heartbroken, yet at the moment, all they could do was sincerely pray for Lu Chuan.

The blood mist grew more and more condensed!

“Lu Chuan, stay conscious! If you faint now, all previous efforts will be in vain!”

“I… I know!”

Lu Chuan shut his eyes tightly, trying to relax his body as much as possible, concentrating to resist the intense pain, but unfortunately, the effect was minimal.

Wave after wave of pain engulfed Lu Chuan like a tide. As the power continued to climb, it seemed this torment would never end!

Four hours later, Nascent Soul Realm Nine Layers!

Not even thirty years old, yet reaching Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection. Such talent was unparalleled when compared to the past hundred years, and looking forward to the next hundred years, it was uncertain if there would be anyone who could surpass him!

By this time, the power of the Blood Pill had consumed nearly a quarter.

But just at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, a clear sky suddenly turned cloudy, dark clouds rolled in!

As Lu Chuan approached the brink of the Spirit Dividing breakthrough, the heavenly tribulation arrived right on time!

Seeing the terrifying lightning above the clouds, Yun Ji couldn’t help but worry for Lu Chuan.

The Demon Tribe doesn’t need to overcome heavenly tribulations in their cultivation, which is their advantage but also their weakness.

Having never experienced the trials of heavenly tribulation, demons of the same realm are often slightly weaker than human cultivators, and the higher the realm, the more apparent this becomes.

The heavenly tribulation symbolizes destruction.

But it also represents rebirth!

“Damn it, it’s just a few heavenly tribulations! I can handle it!”

Lu Chuan struggled to stand up. As his flesh healed on one side, it was destroyed on the other. Wounds that had barely healed were forcibly torn by violent spiritual power, such inhuman torture was unimaginable!

At the instant Lu Chuan’s aura reached the Nascent Soul Realm Great Perfection, the heavenly tribulation finally formed.

A dull rumble shattered through the clouds, and just hearing that sound made Miao Conglu shiver.

“Yun Ji, Lu Chuan he…”

“He will be alright, he definitely will!”

Yun Ji bit her lip, a tear slipping down her cheek.

Even so, how could Yun Ji not worry?

Given Lu Chuan’s current state, she wouldn’t be surprised if he fainted the next moment. Let alone facing such a terrifying heavenly tribulation?

The only thing Yun Ji could do was comfort herself like this, and that’s all.

Soon, the first heavenly tribulation began to converge above the clouds, and even Yun Ji felt an overwhelming sense of dread from this terrifying momentum!

Finally, it descended!

Lightning that connected heaven and earth precisely struck Lu Chuan. In an instant, it pierced the barrier set up by Lu Chuan, penetrating through him!

After the first heavenly tribulation, a nearly carbonized, charred hole remained on Lu Chuan’s chest, the flesh charred black at extremely high temperatures, emitting a pungent and unpleasant odor.

But this was only the beginning.

The purpose of the heavenly tribulation itself was to prevent cultivators, naturally disregarding whether Lu Chuan was prepared. Another bolt of heavenly thunder descended!

When the blinding white light finally dimmed, Lu Chuan had almost turned into a piece of charcoal, rolling his eyes and falling straight to the ground.

“Lu… Lu Chuan!”

Miao Conglu couldn’t hold back her emotions any longer, tears streaming down as she tried to rush forward, only to be yanked back by Yun Ji!

“What are you doing! Let go of me!”

“What can you do by going there? Your flesh and blood body, even the residual power would be enough to turn you to dust!”

“But look at his state now, how could he possibly hold on!”

“I believe in Lu Chuan! He… he can surely do it.”
