Chapter 640: Heavenly Tribulation Comes!
The negotiation with Lei Yu and Lu Caixia, the two demon kings, actually did not cost Zhou Yang much of his lips.
In this negotiation, he was completely dominant, he could choose to negotiate or not to negotiate, but the two demon kings had no choice at all.
For Zhou Yang, the failure of the negotiation was just two less objects to use.
But for the two demon kings, it is about their own lives.
What's more, Zhou Yang has never been a person who does things absolutely, although he has the initiative, he has not relied on this to squeeze the two demon kings to death, and does not treat them as demons.
So after less than half an hour of negotiations, the two sides reached an agreement.
In this agreement, Zhou Yang promised to help the two demon kings leave from Xiandao, and the two demon kings promised to help him collect spiritual resources on the island in Xiandao, and after leaving Xiandao, he would do everything in his power to shoot for him three times.
In addition, in order to thank him for saving his life before, the two demon kings gave him two generous gifts.
Among them, the gift that Lu Caixia gave him was half an antler, but the gift that Lei Yu gave him was ten drops of [Lei Peng's True Blood].
The antlers of the [Five-Colored Deer] contain a powerful power-breaking power, which is an excellent material for refining magic weapons, and the half-cut antlers are well used, which is enough to refine a sixth-order magic weapon with a powerful law-breaking power.
And [Lei Peng's True Blood] is also extremely precious, which can not only be used to practice some powerful thunder powers, but also feed some poultry spirit pets to help them awaken Lei Peng's bloodline.
Zhou Yang has planned it, keep all these [Lei Peng True Blood], and when he returns to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm, he will feed his spirit pet Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to see if he can awaken the Lei Peng bloodline.
In this way, the two sides reached an agreement and swore an oath to the sky together, and then they took their own actions.
The two demon kings naturally continued to stay in the immortal island to collect spiritual resources on the island for Zhou Yang, while Zhou Yang was always outside to monitor Mu Qingyun and escort the actions of the two demon kings.
As for why he didn't attack Mu Qingyun's body and sabotage his plan to cross the True Spirit Tribulation, of course, it was because he couldn't do it at all.
Mu Qingyun's strength can be said to have reached the limit of the sixth order, and with a powerful Xuanjia Demon King on the side, it is not something they can shake at all.
And in the conversation with the two demon kings, Zhou Yang's understanding of Mu Qingyun became much deeper, and he knew that Mu Qingyun had actually refined a very powerful catastrophe magic weapon, which he had never taken out and used.
The magic weapon that Mu Qingyun specially refined for the purpose of crossing the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation was a demon clan magic weapon similar to a demon weapon, called the [Ten Thousand Demon Gathering Soul Banner], which contained tens of thousands of high-level demon beast demon souls.
The reason why there is not even an ordinary beast on the current [Donglai Immortal Island] is because Mu Qingyun refined this evil magic weapon and killed all the demon beasts on the immortal island.
According to Zhou Yang's estimate, if the [Ten Thousand Demon Gathering Soul Banner] was really as Lu Caixia said, detaining tens of thousands of high-level demon beasts and demon souls, its power would definitely not be worse than some seventh-order immortal weapons.
After he knew this secret, he naturally didn't dare to go to Mu Qingyun's body to die.
In case he provokes the other party, if he really uses this magic weapon used to cross the True Spirit Tribulation on him, his small body will not be able to bear it.
Anyway, Master Venerable [Donglai Zhenren] assured him that Mu Qingyun's crossing of the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation would definitely fail, and he would not be able to take any more risks to deal with this 10,000-year-old demon.
And Mu Qingyun, after chasing and killing the two demon kings failed, he seemed to understand that it was difficult for him to kill the two demon kings with Zhou Yang's cover, and he didn't pay much attention to the spiritual object collection plan that the two demon kings and Zhou Yang conspired to carry out on the island.
It's just that he grabbed all the "shape-shifting elixirs" that Zhou Yang couldn't get enough of them to his body, and picked all the top-level elixirs in his "private medicine garden", not giving Zhou Yang a chance to get these elixirs at all.
This made Zhou Yang, who saw this situation outside, extremely angry, but he could only watch and could not do anything.
He knew in his heart that those "shape-shifting elixirs" and top-grade elixirs were all consumables that Mu Qingyun used to replenish mana when he was crossing the True Spirit Tribulation.
As a dryad, Mu Qingyun could directly absorb the medicinal power contained in these top-level elixirs to replenish mana and recover injuries, which was better than taking any pill.
Even the rest of the vegetation on the island will be targeted for plunder during its crossing.
But even if he knew this, there was nothing he could do to stop it.
Within the range of thousands of miles of the body, Mu Qingyun's strength can be called a sixth-order invincible, and no one wants to defeat him within this range.
Time passed slowly, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
In the course of this year, the two demon kings, the Thunder Feather Demon King and the Caixia Demon King, picked most of the elixirs and spiritual fruits above the fourth order on the Immortal Island, put them into the storage ring given by Zhou Yang, and finally fell into Zhou Yang's hands.
The number of these elixirs is as many as tens of thousands, and their value is immeasurable, in order to make up enough jade boxes for these elixirs, Zhou Yang still asked the [Water-Avoiding Golden Eye Beast] to help him find a third-order water spirit jade vein at the bottom of the surrounding sea to solve this problem.
And Mu Qingyun on the Immortal Island has been completely repaired and fused with the [Natal Soul Card] obtained from Zhou Yang after a year of preparation, and is ready to cross the True Spirit Tribulation.
It's not that Mu Qingyun doesn't want to delay some longer, and he will cross the catastrophe after solving the two inner ghosts in the Immortal Island.
It's that he was afraid of Zhou Yang outside the Immortal Island, and found the True Immortal of the Human Race Tribulation Period to strangle him in advance.
At that time, when Zhou Yang had not yet turned his face with him on the island, in order to deter him, he also said about [Chongyang Zhenren] Du Chongyang, implying that he, a true immortal during the tribulation period, lived in seclusion on an overseas immortal island.
In his mind, Zhou Yang is now turning his face against him, knowing that he is about to cross the True Spirit Tribulation, in order to prevent him from retaliating after the success of the Tribulation, he will definitely try his best to prevent him from crossing the Tribulation.
And to strangle a demon king who is expected to be promoted to the seventh order true spirit at the sixth order, compared to the human race's Tribulation Period True Immortal, he will be very willing to do this.
As for whether Zhou Yang could ask a true immortal of the Tribulation Period to make a move, Mu Qingyun didn't dare to gamble, because if he lost the bet, the price would be his life.
So after fusing and repairing the [Natal Soul Card], he wholeheartedly recuperated and prepared to cross the catastrophe.
On this day, the originally clear sky outside [Donglai Immortal Island] suddenly appeared a purple thundercloud flashing with intense electric light.
As soon as this purple thundercloud appeared, the aura of heaven and earth in the nearby sea area within 100,000 li was attracted by an inexplicable suction force and surged towards the purple thundercloud.
At the same time, a great feeling of terror suddenly appeared in the hearts of all the living beings in this area, as if something terrible was about to happen.
Instinctively, up to those fourth-order and fifth-order demon beasts, down to ordinary sea beasts swimming fish, under the influence of this great terrifying emotion, they desperately swam in the direction away from the thundercloud, not daring to stay in this sea area anymore.
"The thunderclouds have appeared, and Mu Qingyun's old monster finally can't help but start the tribulation!"
Outside [Donglai Immortal Island], Zhou Yang suppressed the great terror that rose in his heart with great perseverance, looked at the purple thundercloud in the sky with a shocked face, and exclaimed in a low voice.
He had also seen the scene of the fourth-order demon beast crossing the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation when it was promoted to the fifth order, but that kind of Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, compared to the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation he saw now, was simply like a child's home.
Now this True Spirit Tribulation has just gathered momentum, and it has already made him feel the suffocating pressure, one can imagine how terrifying and terrifying the heavenly thunder that will really fall after the momentum is accumulated.
At this moment, he slightly understood the meaning of Shizun [Donglai Zhenren]'s original words.
With such a terrifying True Spirit Tribulation, Mu Qingyun wanted to get through it, but there was really little hope.
"Zhou Lang, the power of this True Spirit Tribulation is so great, I'm afraid that there will be demon clans and demon kings in the nearby sea areas who will be attracted over, should we avoid it first, so as not to cause trouble!"
On Zhou Yang's side, Jiang Fengxian withdrew his gaze from the purple thundercloud in the sky with a shocked expression, and looked at him with a worried look in his eyes and expressed his opinion.
"You have to avoid it, but it's not to find a place to hide outside, but to go to the island!"
Zhou Yang bowed his head slightly and said his thoughts.
Jiang Fengxian was stunned for a moment, and exclaimed with a wild face: "When you go to the island at this time, are you sure that you are not throwing yourself into the net?
"You can rest assured about this matter, I have long learned from my master that the core influence range of the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation and the Immortal Heavenly Tribulation is only within the thousands of miles where the Tribulator is located, and out of this range, it will not be targeted and attacked by the Heavenly Tribulation, at most, sometimes you will encounter some scattered Heavenly Thunder!"
Zhou Yang calmly explained the inside story, and then said with a gleam in his eyes: "And this is also an opportunity, this kind of close witness to others crossing the True Spirit Tribulation and feeling the power of the Tribulation will also be of great help to us in the future, if we can take the opportunity to collect some scattered Heavenly Tribulation Thunder and refine it into a thunder bead, it is also a good hole card!"
Jiang Fengxian didn't expect him to have this plan, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but look at him in a daze, and his beautiful eyes were full of brilliance.
A monk who has just been married for more than ten years dares to say that he will become an immortal tribulation in the future, if this is said by a monk in the Yuan Infant Stage, Jiang Fengxian will only laugh at him for not measuring his own strength, and he doesn't know the height of the sky.
But when Zhou Yang said it at this time, she didn't feel strange at all, as if she thought that day would definitely appear.
This can be said to be in the eyes of a lover, and it is also because of Zhou Yang's amazing performance all the time, which makes her full of almost blind confidence in her lover, believing that as long as he can say it, he will definitely do it.
Jiang Fengxian herself didn't realize that she had been changed by Zhou Yang's influence unconsciously, and became like a real wife, who was prone to blind worship of her husband's rhetoric.
She looked at Zhou Yang with beautiful eyes, and nodded her head with a soft face: "Since this is the case, the concubine has no opinion, everything is up to Zhou Lang." ”
Seeing that she agreed, Zhou Yang immediately raised his hand, showed a blue-gray orb in his palm and said, "Then you go first in this [Cave Xuan Pearl], and then let you come out after I am sure that I have reached a safe place." ”
If the [Cave Xuanzhu] only contains two living people, the consumption of Zhou Yang's mana is not large, and it can be replenished at any time by refining the aura of heaven and earth.
After he put Jiang Fengxian's mother and daughter into it, he immediately put away the thing, sacrificed the silver-gray stone tablet and entered the fairy island.
At this time, the Thunder Feather Demon King and the Caixia Demon King in the Immortal Island had been waiting for him for a long time on a lonely cliff by the sea in the north of the Immortal Island.
Seeing him appear as promised, the two demon kings were relieved.
"Zhou Daoyou, you can be regarded as here, the old monster has begun to trigger the True Spirit Tribulation, at this time, he will definitely not be able to withdraw to deal with us, and the Xuanjia guy has also retreated to the outer area of Immortal Island, what should we do next?"
After Lu Caixia exhaled lightly, her eyes turned and fell on Zhou Yang's face, explaining the situation on the island with an expectant expression.
Of course, Zhou Yang knew what she was expecting, and according to the agreement between the two parties, if Mu Qingyun started the tribulation, he would take the two demon kings out of the Immortal Island.
He suddenly waved his hand lightly, and said with a smile: "Lu Daoyou, don't be impatient, this True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation is a rare vision in 10,000 years, the two Daoists are extraordinary, and most of them will have the opportunity to impact the seventh order in the future, don't you want to take a closer look at the power of the Heavenly Tribulation at this time and prepare for the future Tribulation?"
Hearing Zhou Yang's words, the faces of the two demon kings showed obvious expressions of intent, especially the Thunder Feather Demon King, whose faces showed a hint of yearning.
He was already in the realm of a sixth-order high-grade demon king, and although there was still a big gap between him and the True Spirit Tribulation, he was already at this level after all, and there would be no problem with his step-by-step cultivation in the future.
Moreover, as a thunder demon beast, this experience of witnessing the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Punishment at close range was also of great help to him in comprehending the deeper laws of the Thunder System.
At least he could feel it now, and with the appearance of the purple thundercloud in the sky, the nearby thunder system was obviously many times more active than usual, and it became easier to capture and comprehend.
But without waiting for the Thunder Feather Demon King to speak out and Zhou Yang's words, Lu Caixia had already expressed her worries first.
"But if we don't leave now, if the old monster succeeds, won't we all be poisoned by him?"
The Antlers Girl glanced at the giant tree in the depths of the island with a worried look in her eyes, and whispered the worry in her heart.
Suddenly, the fiery color in the eyes of the Thunder Feather Demon King quickly dissipated, and a thick look of worry appeared on his face.
Yes, if Mu Qingyun succeeds in crossing the tribulation, how can they, the people and demons who have a great enmity with him, have a way to live?
Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but comfort the two demons and said, "Two fellow Daoists, rest assured, the old monster will definitely die under the Heavenly Tribulation!"
He said this categorically, as if he expected Mu Qingyun to fail.
That confident tone and demeanor made the two demon kings very puzzled, and they didn't understand where he got this confidence.
Without waiting for the two demon kings to question his self-confidence, Zhou Yang continued to speak: "Besides, even if he can successfully cross the tribulation, he will definitely be greatly injured, right? At that time, he will definitely not be able to settle accounts with us in time, but Zhou can take you away from the Immortal Island immediately, and at that time, there will be the Immortal Island Guardian Formation to block it, and he will not be so easy to get out of trouble from here!"
Compared to his previous words of delusional confidence, this explanation was more reassuring to the two demon kings.
The Thunder Feather Demon King, who was originally very tempted by his proposal, finally couldn't help but speak up and said to him at this time: "I think Zhou Daoyou said it very reasonably, Sister Caixia, don't worry, with Zhou Daoyou here, we will already be invincible, don't worry too much about safety!"
After Zhou Yang's explanation, Lu Caixia's mind was also much calmer, and at this time, seeing that the Thunder Feather Demon King also agreed with Zhou Yang's opinion, of course she was not good at mentioning different opinions, so she could only reluctantly smile at the moment.
So, one of them and two demons immediately found a spiritual mountain on the island with a fairly wide field of vision as a place to stay, and observed this rare True Spirit Tribulation from thousands of miles away.
The accumulation time of the True Spirit Tribulation made Zhou Yang feel very frightened.
He counted carefully, from the appearance of the purple thundercloud to the completion of the accumulation, it took nine days and nine nights.
And when the momentum was completed, the area of the purple thundercloud had expanded from the size of dozens of acres at the beginning to hundreds of miles, and it could be said that half of the sky was covered by thunderclouds.
At this time, the coercion transmitted by the Heavenly Tribulation Thundercloud had already made a Yuan Infant Cultivator like Zhou Yang feel very uncomfortable, and he needed to use mana to resist this coercion at all times in order to remain standing.
This was when he was thousands of miles away from the Heavenly Tribulation Thundercloud.
I can't imagine how terrifying the coercion he would be if he was directly below that Heavenly Tribulation Thundercloud now!
"What a terrifying True Spirit Tribulation!"
Beside Zhou Yang, the antlered girl looked at the purple thundercloud in the distance with a frightened face, and her eyes were full of fear.
As soon as she thought that she would face such a terrible catastrophe when she crossed the tribulation in the future, her body weakened for a while, and she almost couldn't stand steadily.
"This is definitely not a normal True Spirit Tribulation, a normal True Spirit Tribulation is definitely not so terrifying!"
The Thunder Feather Demon King's eyes also showed a hint of fear, as if he knew something about the True Spirit Tribulation, and said something with an affirmative expression that made everyone stunned.
"What did Lei Daoyou say about this?"
Zhou Yang's eyes flashed, and his eyes looked at the Thunder Feather Demon King, and the others were all the same.
Facing everyone's gaze, the Thunder Feather Demon King did not hide his selfishness, and even nodded and said: "Zhou Daoyou also knows that our [Silver Wing Lei Peng] clan itself is a descendant of true spirits, and our cultivation has reached this level, and we have been able to awaken from the bloodline and dig out some inheritance information imprinted by the ancient true spirits in the bloodline. ”
"According to what I know from the inheritance information below, most of the normal True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation accumulation time is seven days, which is not different from one day, and the area of the final Heavenly Tribulation Thundercloud will not exceed three hundred miles. ”
In order to prevent their bloodline descendants from cutting off their inheritance because of their own fall, they will specially imprint some important inheritance information in their bloodline, so that their bloodline descendants will naturally awaken these inheritance memories after their cultivation reaches a certain level.
Zhou Yang had only heard of this kind of statement before, and now that he heard the Thunder Feather Demon King say this, he also believed the other party's statement.
The True Spirit Tribulation is undoubtedly important to the Demon Clan, and those ancient True Spirits have imprinted this information in their bloodlines, so that the descendants who have not yet crossed the Tribulation have a full understanding and preparation for this, and it is logically completely reasonable.
"But Mu Qingyun's True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation has been gathering momentum for nine days and nine nights, and now the area of the Heavenly Tribulation Thundercloud has reached more than five hundred miles, why is this?"
Jiang Fengxian, who was beside Zhou Yang, asked what he wanted to ask for him with a curious face.
"This ...... Maybe it has something to do with his roots, when the grass and wood demon clan is promoted to the fifth order, he doesn't have to cross the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, and when he reaches the level of the True Spirit Tribulation, it should be stronger than the True Spirit Tribulation crossed by the normal demon clan!"
After hesitating for a moment, the Thunder Feather Demon King said his conjecture with some uncertainty.
Hearing his words, Zhou Yang and the others didn't react, but Lu Caixia suddenly snorted coldly: "Hmph, it's not so much related to the root foot, I think it's more that this old monster has done a lot of evil, and the killing is too heavy, and the sky can't see it and wants him to die!"
"Okay, no matter what the reason, the stronger the Heavenly Tribulation, the better it is for us, if the old wooden monster dies under the Heavenly Tribulation, we will all have one less big trouble!"
Zhou Yang waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to argue more in this regard, so as not to hurt the harmony.
So everyone put down this topic and concentrated on observing Mu Qingyun's tragedy.
Bang!
With the sound of earth-shattering thunder, a bright purple thunder that connected the sky and the earth suddenly fell from the thundercloud in the sky, and slashed straight towards the giant tree on Donglai Immortal Mountain.
Zhou Yang was originally worried that this thunder would not break the Immortal Island Guardian Formation.
But it turned out that he was overthinking.
The heavenly tribulation formed by the laws of heaven and earth directly locks the vitality of the catastrophe, and will not take the initiative to punish anyone or anything that has nothing to do with the catastrophe.
Mu Qingyun didn't have the central control weapon of refining the Immortal Island Guardian Formation, so he couldn't take the initiative to control the Immortal Island Formation to help him survive the tribulation, and the Heavenly Tribulation naturally wouldn't waste his strength to split the formation that was not mixed with Mu Qingyun's breath.
The bright purple heavenly thunder that connected the heavens and the earth seemed to have crossed time and space, directly passing through the formation prohibition without hindrance, and directly reaching the top of Mu Qingyun's body on the island.
And as if to test the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, this first Heavenly Thunder, Mu Qingyun did not use any magic weapon to resist, but just woven the branches into an umbrella shape and forcibly connected to the bombardment of this Heavenly Thunder.
Thundered!
Thousands of miles away, Zhou Yang and the others only saw a dazzling purple thunder explode, and countless thunderbolts scattered and splashed in all directions, instantly blasting the mountains, rocks, grass and trees around Mu Qingyun's body and burning them into green smoke.
It's just that the power of this blow is even more exaggerated than the self-explosion of a mid-Yuan Infant monk that Zhou Yang had ever seen, and the terrifying energy fluctuations made Zhou Yang's heart tremble for thousands of miles.
And under this blow, Mu Qingyun's branches woven into umbrellas were directly blown up and burned seventy percent, almost leaving only a bare trunk.
However, Mu Qingyun dared to face the thunder bombardment, and it was not without support.
Zhou Yang saw that the trunk of the tree suddenly burst into cyan aura, and the trunk and branches that had been damaged by the thunder bombardment were quickly pulled out with new branches visible to the naked eye, and soon regrew an umbrella-like canopy similar to a pine tree.
And almost halfway through the umbrella-shaped canopy, the second thunderbolt had already fallen.
"According to the records in the classics, whether it is the Immortal Heavenly Tribulation or the True Spirit Heavenly Tribulation, there will be four rounds of a total of thirty-six heavenly thunderbolts falling, and with each round, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation will increase by three percent on the original basis!"
"Now the power of this first heavenly thunder is stronger than the full blow of the Yuanying Ninth Layer Cultivator, if Mu Qingyun can survive the heavenly tribulation, we will die in his hands, and it will not be a grievance!"
Zhou Yang's gaze retracted from a distance, looked back at the people around him, and joked with a smile.
Hearing his words, the originally tense expressions of the Thunder Feather Demon King and Lu Caixia also relaxed a lot.
