95: 49 Heavenly Tribulations, Breaking the Great Fortune Lock (Part 1)

In the sky, Yang Qiong, standing beside Lü Qingmei, threw a defensive Magical Artifact towards Gu Liangyuan and exclaimed, “Tsk, tsk, tsk, I’ve seen many Undergoing Tribulation, but this is the first time I’ve seen tens of thousands of female Cultivators simultaneously lending Magical Artifacts.”

“Throwing treasures to form a mountain, truly impressive.”

As she spoke, her movements quickened, and another low-grade spirit treasure was thrown to Gu Liangyuan.

Lü Qingmei couldn't help but smile, looking at the girlish Heart-Nature of Yang Qiong.

Just then, the thunderclouds in the sky trembled again, and continuous lightning bolts shone brightly.

The Cultivators understood that this was a sign that the Lightning Tribulation was about to descend, so they stopped throwing treasures and hastily retreated.

Boom!

Accompanied by a huge thunderclap, a Heavenly Thunder struck down with force!

It broke through the long sky with unreduced momentum, shaking the heavens and earth, illuminating a thousand miles!

Seeing this, Gu Liangyuan immediately activated his Sun Moon Glass Body.

As the Glazed Body circulated, his entire Physical Body was covered by a layer of precious light.

Above his skin, a glazed luster actually emanated.

Looking at Gu Liangyuan’s stance, it was clear he intended to use his Physical Body to withstand this lightning!

In fact, with Gu Liangyuan’s battle prowess comparable to Void Refining, he had never taken the first twenty-seven Heavenly Thunders seriously.

He could easily pass them using any method.

What he cared about were only the last nine Heavenly Thunders.

Gu Liangyuan knew his own strength, but the onlookers did not.

Looking at the faint glazed color on Gu Liangyuan’s body, an Elder from a large Sect, who possessed extraordinary insight, exclaimed in surprise: “Refining Marrow Peak!”

Someone nearby asked, “Refining Marrow Peak?”

Even the surrounding Disciples turned their heads to look, waiting for the Elder’s explanation.

The Elder spoke:

“It’s normal that you haven’t dealt with Body Cultivators, so you wouldn’t know.”

“Body Refining has Nine Heavens: the first five realms are Refining Skin, Refining Tendons, Refining Organs, Refining Marrow, and Spirit Refining.

The latter four realms are: Qi and Blood like a Dragon, Limb Rebirth, Physical Body Breaking Through the Void, and Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

These nine realms also correspond to the nine realms of Cultivation.

At this moment, Gu Liangyuan’s Physical Body Cultivation is at the Nascent Soul (Refining Marrow) Peak!

Upon reaching this realm, the entire body is already at Perfection without leaks, and the Physical Body can withstand High Grade Heavenly Rank Magical Artifacts!”

“Who would have thought, who would have thought, that this Gu Liangyuan actually follows the path of Dual Cultivation of Body and Dao!”

The Elder spoke very quickly, talking while his gaze remained fixed on Gu Liangyuan, afraid he would miss any detail.

The surrounding Disciples suddenly realized, so that’s how it was.

“I heard that Gu Liangyuan only Underwent Tribulation for Nascent Soul a few months ago. In just a few short months, not only has his Cultivation reached Nascent Soul Peak, but he also Body Refined along the way?”

“What is a Genius? Someone who does what ordinary people cannot!”

“Don’t even think about it, this is the gap between us and a Genius.”

The female Cultivators: “I can’t stand it anymore, it’s one thing to be so handsome, but his Cultivation is also so powerful. Is it still too late for me to leave the Sect and become a Disciple of Forget-Love Peak?”

“Go bother someone else, don’t you see what kind of talent the Disciples Forget-Love Peak accepts? Stop dreaming.”

...

Above the Nine Heavens, Empyrean Cloud listened to everyone’s discussions, and the smile on his face deepened!

That’s right, the more of a Genius Gu Liangyuan showed himself to be, the happier he was!

In his opinion, Gu Liangyuan was certainly going to die under the Lightning Tribulation.

The more of a Genius Gu Liangyuan showed himself to be, the more losses the Supreme Sacred Ground would incur!

Lü Qingmei, Yang Qiong, and the others beside him all looked nervously at Gu Liangyuan; no one noticed the change in Empyrean Cloud’s expression.

Although Lü Qingmei was surprised by Gu Liangyuan’s sudden display of Body Refining Cultivation, the worry on her face never diminished.

Her thoughts were the same as Empyrean Cloud’s: a Nascent Soul Peak Physical Body Cultivation would certainly make it easy to Undergo ordinary Soul Transformation Tribulation.

But for the Lightning Tribulation of Forget-Love Peak, relying solely on this method was still far from enough.

It was not surprising that she was worried; from beginning to end, she had no idea of Gu Liangyuan’s true battle prowess.

When Empyrean Cloud was killed, she only speculated that it was related to Gu Liangyuan, thinking it was done by Li and Wu.

As for Luo Li’s matter, she was completely unaware.

Under Lü Qingmei’s gaze, that Heavenly Thunder had already struck Gu Liangyuan’s body!

A flash of light passed, the Heavenly Thunder dissipated, and Gu Liangyuan remained motionless!

On the dark Xuan Chen Clothes, tiny electric arcs flickered erratically, trying to bore into Gu Liangyuan’s body.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t break through the Wu Chen Clothes’ defense, and within moments, they slowly dissipated into the air.

Although defense was not the primary function of the Wu Chen Clothes, it was, after all, a High Grade Spirit Treasure, so it had this much resistance.

As soon as the electric arcs dissipated, the second tribulation lightning arrived!

Gu Liangyuan didn’t even look at the second Lightning Tribulation, directly sitting cross-legged to recuperate his spirit, quietly waiting for the arrival of the last nine Lightning Tribulations.

Bang!

The tribulation lightning struck Gu Liangyuan directly, causing the entire Returning Dragon Peak to tremble.

Gu Liangyuan’s face, however, remained calm and unperturbed.

Like the previous tribulation lightning, this tribulation lightning failed to break through the Wu Chen Clothes’ defense.

This left all the Disciples dumbfounded.

What’s going on?

Is this how you Undergo Tribulation?

And you’re even sitting cross-legged to Cultivate?

Can’t you give the Lightning Tribulation some basic respect!

Empyrean Cloud watched this scene, and a vague sense of unease began to rise in his heart.

So he comforted himself:

The grand astrological lock will only take effect later, this is just the beginning, what’s there to worry about?

With Gu Liangyuan’s talent, it’s normal for him to easily pass the first twenty-seven.

Forget-Love Peak has had Prodigies before, and some have easily passed the first twenty-seven; the main course is still the last nine Lightning Tribulations.

I’m not panicking at all.

Not panicking.

On the contrary, those who were worried about Gu Liangyuan felt somewhat relieved seeing him so relaxed.

Lü Qingmei: Junior Martial Uncle, Junior Martial Uncle, you must pass this. If even you cannot break the curse of Forget-Love Peak, then in the future, I fear no one will have the ability.

Song Xianer: With my knowledge, I can’t even tell what makes this Lightning Tribulation different from other Lightning Tribulations. I don’t know what this so-called curse really is.

With Revered Master’s ability to fight across two ranks, there shouldn’t be any problem.

If he can’t pass… then I’d rather use a forbidden art to preserve Revered Master’s soul!

Qianqiu: I am indeed too incompetent. I have to rely on Revered Master for everything, yet I can’t help Revered Master at all.

If this continues, when will I be able to push down (crossed out) when will I truly be able to help Revered Master?

As everyone’s thoughts swirled, seven more tribulation lightning bolts descended consecutively!

Each thunderclap resounded through the Void Realm, shaking the green mountains and making the rivers surge!

But even seven consecutive tribulation lightning bolts failed to harm Gu Liangyuan in the slightest!

The first nine tribulation lightning bolts had passed, and starting from the tenth Heavenly Thunder, the power increased again.

As the tribulation clouds twisted, the color of the Heavenly Thunder changed from colorless to blue-green.

Without even giving Gu Liangyuan a chance to breathe, as soon as the ninth tribulation lightning dissipated, the tenth divine lightning followed closely behind.

Bang!

The divine lightning struck Gu Liangyuan’s body; unlike the previous complete lack of sensation, this time Gu Liangyuan felt a slight tingling.

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw that although the Wu Chen Clothes had blocked most of the tribulation lightning, a small portion of the electric arcs still hit his skin.

The tingling sensation came precisely from this.

Gu Liangyuan smiled faintly, circulating the Qi and blood within his body, using the power of Qi and blood to form a faint protective layer on the surface of his skin.

The Wu Chen Clothes blocked eighty percent of the lightning power, and even the remaining twenty percent was completely isolated by this layer of Qi and blood power.

Rumble!

One Heavenly Thunder followed another, and within two or three breaths, eight more Heavenly Thunders struck down!
