On Zixia Peak, the two true kings looked at the huge rat demon roaring in the clouds under the gray calamity clouds, and felt the pressure of the huge earth evil spirit at the same level.
"The most critical transformation of the form, this rat successfully completed in just a few days?"
True Lord Yunlan's pupils shrank slightly and his expression moved.
When the monster beasts attack the fourth-level monster king, the difficulty of the first two levels is actually higher than that of the human monks.
Zhenjun Zixia has been observing for many days and is not surprised by this result.
However, the momentum of the rock rat's impact on the transformation is fierce, stable and controllable, which is extraordinary.
She secretly speculated that maybe this rat demon was very lucky, or maybe Xiang Zhenren had concealed something crucial.
The latter is very likely, but it is human nature and understandable.
After the Great Spirit Pill is formed.
The earth rock rat's life level has basically entered the fourth level, and its energy and spirit are boiling and leaping forward.
Zizzi!
The gray calamity clouds in the sky are quickly brewing thunder and locking the Earth Rock Rat.
Countless tiny green lightning arcs surround the billowing clouds of calamity, continuously converging and merging, turning into thunder as thick as an adult's arm, exuding majestic power.
"Transformation of thunder."
Lu Changan, who was protecting the law not far away, felt his body and mind sink. He kept his distance and did not dare to approach or help.
If outsiders interfere with the tribulation, they will cause the tribulation to have a stronger backlash against them.
"The thunder catastrophe faced by the great demon is indeed much more severe than that of human monks like us."
True Lord Yun Lan stared at the cyan thunderbolt that continued to grow on the calamity cloud, already thicker than an adult's thigh.
In the Tianlei level, the mortality rate of monsters is higher than that of human monks.
According to classic records, some great monsters in the sea once lurked into the human world and secretly learned the art of weapon refining to increase their ability to fight against thunder.
However, there are pros and cons to doing so.
The big demon has a strong body and stronger evil spirit. If it undergoes the baptism of thunder, it will promote the blood of the physical body and increase its own heritage.
…
It takes about half a cup of tea.
Boom!
On the calamity cloud, the first thunderbolt fell, and the dazzling green light cut through the dark sky covered with dark clouds.
The giant rock rat, which was several feet tall, had already withdrawn its essence elixir, and earthy yellow crystal light erupted from its body, forming a solid column of demonic power, facing the sky thunder head-on.
Click!
The demon power crystal pillar shattered in response, and the thick blue sky thunder turned into dozens of thunder snake arcs, covering the area where the rock rat was.
In an instant, the huge pit where the rock rat was was scorched black.
The demonic power of the Earth Rock Rat's body protection faded and dissipated, and the orange-yellow hair on its body exploded, leaving more than a dozen scorch marks.
"Although it is just a flesh wound, the power of the next few thunderbolts will continue to increase and skyrocket."
Lu Changan paid attention to the calamity clouds in the sky, and the thunder light was moving with fierce momentum.
Not long after, a second, more solid thunder struck, its power increased by 50%!
The Earth Rock Rat looked fearful and cast a spell. Several layers of thick spar walls were superimposed on his head.
Boom!
The crystal stone wall several feet thick was penetrated, and the rock rat's body shook and almost fell over.
The Earth Rock Rat's eyes were firm, and the demonic power in his body was running wildly, becoming more and more condensed.
Although it was not seriously injured, it took out the medicine bottle and drank a holy healing pill to deal with the third, stronger thunder.
The third thunder came, its power increased by another 50%, enough to make the early Yuanying monks retreat by three points.
The rock rat's entire body is petrified, covered in thick stone armor, and topped with a thick stone wall.
In an instant, the petrified scales shattered into pieces and disappeared into ashes.
The rock rat's body rolled over, its surface was burnt black, its whole body was convulsing, and blood spilled from the corners of its mouth.
"The injury is not serious, why don't you use the treasure to dissolve the calamity?"
True Lord Zixia frowned slightly, confused.
It is true that the physical body has been baptized by thunder, which will benefit the promoted demon king more.
But if the injury is too severe and the will is weakened, it will be difficult to survive the stronger thunder and heart tribulations that follow.
Overcoming the tribulation is a protracted battle, and more physical and mental energy must be used later.
Until the fourth heavenly tribulation, the Earth Rock Rat still failed to use the tribulation treasure, and immediately vomited blood, was seriously injured, and almost fainted.
"No need to resist anymore."
Lu Changan looked calm and spoke from afar.
The Earth Rock Rat nodded, opened his mouth and spit out a silver-white orb, which floated into the air above his head.
Boom!
The fifth thunderbolt, like a dancing thunder python, struck down against the background of the lightning storm.
This attack far exceeded the scope of the early Yuan Ying.
Buzz!
The silver-white thunder bead bloomed with a translucent ripple force field. When the fifth thunder struck, the light weakened a bit, and there was a faint trend of differentiation.
The rock rat suddenly stood up, with its arms across its head, forming a huge arc-shaped stone shield, and its body surface was once again condensed with stone skin armor.
The weakened thunderbolt easily penetrated the stone shield, leaving cracks on the surface of the stone skin armor.
A piece of escaping arc made the rock rat groan and break out in cold sweat, but it managed to hold on with difficulty.
After being struck by lightning, the silver-white thunder beads were dyed with a hint of cyan electric pattern.
"Leave the thunder beads in the last two thunders to achieve the best effect?"
True Monarch Zixia looked surprised and doubtful, she did not expect that Earth Rock Rat had such a big heart.
The thunder beads are consumables and will be consumed a lot, and the quality effect will be reduced.
Monster Thunder Tribulation is stronger. If it is used from beginning to end, it may be destroyed once. Even if it can last until the next time, it needs to be repaired and its effectiveness will be reduced.
By doing this, the Earth Rock Rat allows the physical body to receive more baptism, and at the same time leaves more reserves for the owner to survive the catastrophe in the future.
Boom!
Finally, the sixth thunder struck down, like a world-destroying thunder dragon, and the surrounding area was filled with light and darkness for hundreds of miles.
The Earth Rock Rat had a solemn expression. In addition to transforming thunder beads, he also sacrificed several magic weapons and rare objects that could help resist thunder disasters. Although the grade was not high, the quantity was relatively large.
In the end, the layers of defense were shattered, several magical artifacts were destroyed, and the blackened rock rat collapsed in the pit.
call!
The calamity clouds in the sky and the light of thunder and lightning began to converge and dim.
"The transformed sky thunder, have you withstood it?"
True Lord Yunlan's eyes flickered, and he looked carefully to investigate.
Under the influence of the heavenly tribulation, the spiritual consciousness is limited and the vision is not very clear.
But the ground rock rat who had collapsed in the pit was stubbornly sitting up, and the collapsed demonic power was condensed again, becoming thicker and thicker.
Obviously, the Earth Rock Rat survived the thunderous catastrophe that struck his form.
"This rat recovered from its injury very quickly. I don't know what kind of healing medicine it took."
True Lord Zixia saw some clues.
The credit for transforming thunder beads is one thing.
As early as the fourth level of heavenly thunder, the rock rat was seriously injured. Later, he withstood two more powerful heavenly tribulations, but his life was not in danger.
The rock rat sat up, took two more pills, and took the time to heal his wounds.
In fact, the internal injuries it suffered were not as severe as outsiders imagined.
Lu Changan received the Holy Healing Pill from the trophies of Patriarch Tianluo back then.
In order to increase the fault tolerance rate, Lu Changan used the sealing secret technique he had developed through research and injected the evergreen secret technique into the healing pill, which cost him one year of life.
Most of the effect of the Evergreen Secret Technique will still be lost, but the Earth Rock Rat is sealed in its belly in advance and can be activated at critical moments. Together with the Holy Pill itself, the effect is quite impressive.
This is also why the Earth Rock Rat does not need to turn into thunder beads for the first four levels of heavenly tribulation, and does not have to worry about being seriously injured.
…
"[Thunder Bead]? But the one you traded from Yu Yuanjin?"
There was no emotion or anger on Zhenjun Yunlan's face and he asked the Taoist companion next to him.
The Earth Rock Rat was able to withstand the terrifying thunder catastrophe of transformation, benefiting from the physical training, and the [Thunder Transformation Bead] played an important role.
"That's right."
True Lord Zixia smiled slightly and praised:
"This [Thunder Bead] was originally a catastrophe treasure that Master Xiang planned to have a baby for himself. In order for his spiritual pet to survive the catastrophe, he did not hesitate to waste his own opportunities."
She did not tell True Lord Yunlan about this matter in detail back then.
Because it is not a secret that Yu Yuanjin, the member of the Jin Dynasty royal family, appreciates and admires True Lord Zixia.
True Lord Yunlan kept a distance from Yu Yuanjin and did not want his Taoist companion to have too much contact with him.
"Zi Yan, you are really attentive to Master Xiang."
Under the afterglow of the dark clouds and thunder, the majestic face of True Monarch Yun Lan was dim and bright.
Due to events in her early years, Zixia was indifferent to him and had an estranged relationship with him. They lived separately and only maintained a superficial relationship.
Now, he is so dedicated to helping an outsider.
"Senior brother! I'm just an introduction to Master Xiang. I'm just doing it as a favor, and there's nothing to go beyond."
Zhenjun Zixia noticed the Taoist couple's displeasure and explained.
"Now it seems that I have done nothing wrong. If the Earth Rock Rat can successfully transform, it will be of great benefit to our sect. With the character of Master Xiang, I will remember the kindness of Yunxia Sect."
Hearing this, Zhenjun Yunlan could not refute, but there was still a knot in his heart.
Uh-huh!
At this time, the black air on the calamity cloud was thick, and an abyss-like vortex was formed during the rotation. Its core was extremely dark, like a magic pupil, staring at the rock rat.
"Heart Demon Tribulation!"
The two Nascent Soul Lords and the high-level monks who were paying close attention to the mountain sect felt their hearts tighten.
Three years ago, Master Yunqing failed at this level.
The calamity of the heart is so dangerous and unpredictable that it cannot be predicted by common sense. Even the top geniuses in the world dare not say that they are 100% sure of surviving it.
Lu Changan took a deep breath. He had confidence in the rock rat in the previous two levels, but he was not sure about this one.
The cloud of calamity, like the devil's eye in the abyss, twists and surges, exuding mysterious throbbing.
call!
An ominous gray wind and mist descended, emitting strange fluctuations of various negative auras, accompanied by the exotic sound of howling ghosts and wolves, engulfing the body of the Earth Rock Rat.
In the inner demon tribulation, no movement can be seen from the outside world.
But in the world of inner demons, there may be vicissitudes of life, nine reincarnations, and the world may collapse...
"Zi Yan, what do you think is the chance of winning this rat's heart tribulation?"
After a long time, True Lord Yunlan spoke, breaking the silence.
"As long as the great demon overcomes the tribulation, as long as it survives the first two levels, the difficulty of the final inner tribulation is slightly lower than that of human monks like us. That rock rat has a tough will, and with the 'Shangqing Pill', it should be about 50%
grasp."
True Lord Zixia pondered and analyzed.
When it comes to the final step, the Earth Rock Rat has indeed a better chance of winning than Yunqing did back then.
"Shangqing Dan? This is a fourth-level holy elixir that helps protect the Taoist heart. You actually gave the sect's treasures to an outsider without authorization?"
True Lord Yunlan said sullenly and in an unhappy tone.
The sharp contrast between the coldness and alienation of Taoist companions towards him and the favor and care towards outsiders made him feel annoyed.
"It's not a free gift, I'm just giving you the permission to exchange it as an exception."
True Lord Zixia sighed quietly and explained:
"Xiang Zhenren has been in the sect for decades. He is low-key and hard-working, does not fight for power, and is not fond of women. He once helped Haoer free of charge to tailor-make high-quality third-level puppets."
"For such a talented and down-to-earth alchemist, how can I do anything wrong by offering favors and winning people's hearts?"
"The Earth Rock Rat's impact and transformation, and reaching this point is a clear proof."
Fairy Zixia argued hard, with rare strength and no tolerance.
True Lord Yun Lan was startled for a moment, then smiled instead of getting angry: "Are you sure that the rat demon can survive the final mental tribulation?"
Fairy Zixia pursed her lips. Even though the demonic beast's heart calamity was weaker, it was still weird, unpredictable and dangerous.
"Even if the rat demon succeeds by luck, Xiang Dalong's humanity, true face, and whether he is grateful to you are all unknown."
True Lord Yunlan is much older than Zixia. He knows that people's hearts are unpredictable and understands human nature better.
Xiang Zhenren's current low-key duty is mostly based on the gap between strength and status.
"I believe in my own vision."
Zhenjun Zixia's tone was decisive. This was the confidence and intuition accumulated over the decades of recruiting Zhenren Xiang from every detail.
True Lord Yunlan sneered and stopped arguing. The future will prove everything.
…
A place to overcome calamity.
Lu Changan was responsible for protecting the Dharma, focusing on the Earth Rock Rat's transformation into a tribulation, and did not notice the argument between the two true kings.
A few hours later.
The gray wind and mist that shrouded the Earth Rock Rat suddenly dispersed, and the strange and exotic magical sounds stopped abruptly.
At the same time as the fog of inner demon tribulation dissipated.
The gray and black calamity clouds in the sky, the aura of calamity faded away like the tide.
Just like when the sky clears after the rain, the black and gray calamity clouds bloom with five colors of rays of light, forming a huge auspicious cloud.
The mysterious sound of the Great Dao sounded from the rotating colorful auspicious clouds, sending down invisible fluctuations of the Dao rhyme.
The rock rat opened its dark red eyes.
After a short period of time after the disaster, it showed a sign of enlightenment, closed its eyes and meditated again, accepting the gift of the Great Way of the Transformation Heavenly Tribulation.
In a huge charred pit.
The rat demon, which was several feet tall, shed its scarred black shell, and its body shrank significantly.
Eventually, it condensed into a muscular rat demon with streamlined muscle lines, dark rock-colored hair, and was only as tall as a person. The hair on the top of its head was dotted with a wisp of purple and gold.
Overall, it looks majestic yet noble.
Although he has not yet transformed into a human form, his sitting posture and manner make him look like a half-demon rat-man at first glance.
The seemingly small body becomes as heavy as a mountain with each breath, making everything quiet. The earthly evil spirit pressure belonging to the fourth-level monster comes into being in this world.
"The Transformed Demon King!"
At this moment, many of the Dan-forming monks of the Yunxia Sect were watching, their hearts throbbing. The terrifying demonic power they sensed was enough to rival the sect's Nascent Soul True Lord.
The two true monarchs on Zixia Peak were slightly shocked.
"Surviving the calamity of inner demons and becoming a fourth-level demon king... he actually made it happen!"
True Lord Yunlan stared at the colorful auspicious clouds in the sky, feeling caught off guard.
The main thing is that the Earth Rock Rat can go through the Heart Tribulation very quickly, taking less than half a day.
The original Master Yunqing stayed up all day and night, but in the end he died.
"Brother, don't underestimate a rat demon. As long as you work hard and have a clear conscience, anything is possible."
True Lord Zixia smiled sweetly and was in a happy mood.
The Earth Rock Rat was promoted to the fourth level, proving her choice and winning a match.
True Lord Yunlan's expression was gloomy and uncertain. The birth of the Demon King in the form of this sect was obviously a good thing, but he did not make him happy.
The Yunqing master he focused on training failed to conceive a baby, but this rat demon, which he was not optimistic about, successfully transformed into the Yunxia Sect.
This huge psychological gap made Zhenjun Yunlan feel very angry and resentful of the injustice.
"The Yunxia Sect's luck has recovered, which has helped the rat demon..."
True Lord Yunlan looked at the increasingly strong luck at the mountain gate, with a reluctant look on his face, and murmured in a difficult tone.
The collective luck of the sect is good, but it cannot be controlled by humans, so it falls on individuals.
True Monarch Yunlan judged that the success of Earth Rock Rat's advancement was somewhat due to the blessing of the sect's rising fortune.
…
Earth Rock Rat was promoted to the fourth level Demon King, causing a sensation throughout the Yunxia Sect, and many monks began to celebrate.
Near the huge black pit, Lu Changan was still protecting the law.
The Earth Rock Rat has just passed through the tribulation and advanced to the transformation stage. It needs to consume great insights and consolidate its realm. It is best to meditate for half a month.
After a while, two familiar Nascent Soul Escape Lights, one behind the other, came to the vicinity of the Tribulation Transcendence area, keeping a certain distance.
"Congratulations to Elder Xiang, your spirit rat has become a fourth-level demon king."
The True Monarch Taoist Companion of Yunxia Sect congratulated him.
True Lord Yunlan smiled warmly, bowed his hands gently, and secretly looked at the transformed rat demon behind Lu Changan.
True Monarch Zixia's eyes were smiling and bright, she bowed slightly and bowed gracefully.
The two Supreme Elders are no longer as arrogant as they used to be. Now their words and deeds are more polite, with a sense of being treated by their peers.
Lu Changan felt a lot in his heart. He was able to receive such courtesy from the two Nascent Soul Lords not because of his own talents, but because of the fourth-level Rat King who was sitting cross-legged and meditating behind him.
After his spiritual pet took a leap of transformation, his master also rose with it.
"You two True Lords are so polite. A certain family's spiritual pet has one day to thank your sect for taking it in, and it has gained the fourth level of spiritual veins and the blessing of the mountain gate."
Lu Changan responded politely.
After hearing these words, Zhenjun Yunlan's gloomy mood was slightly relieved.
Xiang Dalong at least has a grateful heart and does not get carried away.
"Here, a certain family would like to sincerely thank Senior Zixia. Without the help and care of Senior, Mouse would not be where it is today."
"For such kindness, please accept your respects from a certain family."
Lu Changan came to Fairy Zixia, spoke sincerely, and bowed respectfully and gratefully.
At least seven points of this thank you came from the bottom of my heart.
The Earth Rock Rat was able to use the fourth-level spiritual veins, and it was initially approved by True Lord Zixia.
The thunder bead was traded from Yu Yuanjin through the introduction of Zhenjun Zixia.
Although the Shangqing Pill is actually useless, it is a special case prescribed by Zhenjun Zixia and is eligible for redemption.
Without this Jurchen Lord, the preparations for Earth Rock Rat's transformation would not have gone so smoothly.
With this kind of kindness, even if Lu Changan was allowed to kneel down and worship under Zixia Fairy's pomegranate skirt, he wouldn't hesitate at all.
"Elder Xiang is too polite. What I did was just the icing on the cake..."
Fairy Zixia smiled, raised her skirt sleeves, and helped Lu Changan, who was bowing, to her feet.
The inner joy and sense of accomplishment make this beautiful and noble Jurchen's smile bright and lively, making her extremely beautiful.
Standing beside Zhenjun Yunlan, he felt that the Taoist couple was more beautiful than ever before. Under the reflection of the setting sun, his rosy face seemed to have a layer of tide.
Lu Changan did not expect that True Lord Zixia would help him with his own hands.
The smooth and clean touch like gelatin, accompanied by the quiet and timeless fragrance, is enough to make most male cultivators in the world fascinated.
True Lord Yunlan's eyelids twitched slightly, his smile was slightly condensed, and a gloomy look passed through his eyes.
Although Lu Changan did not see the slight change in True Lord Yunlan's expression, an inexplicable chill ran down his spine.
True Lord Yun Lan has always been wary of him, but now he may be even more prejudiced.
No matter how well he did, or even took the initiative to show his kindness, he could not reduce the prejudice of True Lord Yunlan.
Fortunately, after the Earth Rock Rat transformed, Lu Changan no longer had to look at True Lord Yunlan's face.
His original plan was to make friends with the relatively weak True Lord Zixia.
After the two let go and separated.
Lu Changan and Fairy Zixia briefly looked at each other with their beautiful lavender eyes. The latter still had an elegant, noble and natural look.
Lu Changan felt a warning sign: True Lord Zixia is a Nascent Soul monk who has survived for hundreds of years. He is by no means stupid. How could he not know that the subtle actions just now may aggravate True Lord Yunlan's suspicion.
In a flash of inspiration, Lu Changan understood the intention of True Lord Zixia.
As the youngest and most talented Nascent Soul monk of the Yunxia Sect, Fairy Zixia has been suppressed by the Taoists for too long, and her voice within the sect is too low.
Nowadays, the Earth Rock Rat has been promoted to a new form and has become a big change.
Zhenjun Zixia's careless actions just now aggravated the Taoist companion's wariness and hostility, preventing Lu Changan from being attracted by Yun Lan, and he could only devote himself to her.
Lu Changan smiled bitterly in his heart, as the Earth Rock Rat had just been promoted to the fourth level, and it would tilt the situation towards the Yunxia Sect, the Nascent Soul sect that had been passed down for thousands of years.
However, he still underestimated the influence of the Earth Rock Rat's promotion to the fourth level Demon King.
With the birth of a new Nascent Soul level, there is another figure on the top of the clouds.
This has an invisible impact on the situation in the huge country of Dayu, and even promotes the beginning of a turbulent era.
