9. Crossing the Tribulation

Yu Zhui Ma is about to be upgraded.

This is good news, but along with this good news comes bad news.

Yu Zhuima was promoted from three-star to four-star, and he actually had to go through a catastrophe! [bsp; When Cheng Peng saw this system prompt, he was really shocked - it was just a three-star war beast.

It's just a four-star promotion. Is it necessary to be so exaggerated about overcoming the heavenly tribulation?

When Cheng Peng raised his middle finger angrily to protest against the system master, other players happened to be present, and the monster White Water Snake suddenly laughed.

"It turns out that a master like you doesn't know everything..."

After his explanation, Cheng Peng finally understood the meaning of "overcoming the heavenly tribulation".

In the Eastern mythology system, monsters who practice daily and accumulate Taoist magic power will not cause heavenly tribulation. There are generally two situations that will actually cause heavenly tribulation. Either they do many evil things and the world cannot tolerate them. At this time, there will be heavenly tribulation and endless thunder.

The fire from the sky is falling continuously, and it must be

You have to kill them until they are reduced to rubbish; or you have reached a critical point in your practice and are about to step onto a new level, from quantitative changes to qualitative changes. At this time, you will also suffer from heavenly calamity, but the intensity is generally not very high. As long as you are very capable or

If you are lucky, you will be able to pass the test smoothly.

For example, Mr. White Water Snake himself has gone through two heavenly tribulations since he started practicing. The first time was when he was three-star. He has mastered the method of human transformation to a great extent and can completely retain no snake's characteristics in human form.

The other time was when he guarded the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and rescued countless people who fell into the water in the world of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", completed the great cause of moral integrity and was promoted to four stars.

"There are actually traces of the Heavenly Tribulation." Mr. Bai Shui Snake, an expert in overcoming tribulations, got a rare opportunity to show his knowledge in front of an expert. He looked very proud, and his face that was too fair for a man seemed to be full of traces.

Shining brightly, "Generally speaking, the more good things you do, the weaker the power of the heavenly tribulation will be. For example, when I went through the tribulation for the first time, I basically didn't do many good things, but I did a lot of bad things, so the heavenly tribulation

The calamity is the infinite thunder, killing both front and back

I was lucky the ninth time out of the eight times I met a passing eminent monk. I made a vow to accumulate 100,000 merits, and he took action to protect me - that was when I passed the test. But when I did the second time

When we were overcoming the tribulation, we were already at the edge of the Three Gorges.

I stopped saving people who fell into the water, and really accumulated a hundred thousand merits. In the end, the natural disaster only struck a few muffled thunders symbolically, and they didn't even hit me on the head. They just smashed the tribulation formations prepared around me.

Even if it’s all over…”

"In other words, if you want to escape the tribulation more easily, you need to do more good deeds? Accumulate merit?"

"Well, that's it. At least as far as my impression is concerned, I haven't heard of any exceptions."

Cheng Peng frowned and began to think about what good things Yu Zhuima had done in his life.

...it seems...as if...maybe...it hasn't done anything good...

Then he began to sweat on his forehead.

"What if... I haven't done anything good, but I haven't done anything bad either?"

So Mr. White Water Snake also started wiping his sweat.

Therefore, although everyone was busy taking turns to guard Liu Yi, Cheng Peng had to leave far away and came to a remote place with poor mountains and rivers, and began to prepare to help Yu Zhui Ma overcome the disaster.

On the issue of overcoming the tribulation, there are many experiences in the forum for reference, so although it is an unprecedented first time for him, it is not that he is blinded, at a loss, and does not know what to do.

He first purchased a large amount of pure copper from the Star Gate auction house, used the strong and soft Gang Qi to make it into a set of lightning rods, and also made a circular metal cage around Yu Zhuima - the lightning rod and Faraday

Cages are purely scientific means. It may seem absurd to use science and technology to overcome disasters, but practice has proven that it does have certain effects.

After completing these tasks, he compared the "Tai Qing Yun Ji Crossing the Disaster Formation" kindly sponsored by Wei Ye, and carefully arranged various mostly unfamiliar materials into a formation that he had no idea how to construct. According to

According to Wei Ye, this formation can weaken the reaction of heaven and earth to things in the formation, and it is a Taoist magic method to avoid heavenly calamity.

Of course, Cheng Peng would not put all his hopes of overcoming the disaster on those external objects that he could not understand at all. For him, the most reliable person was himself after all.

So after doing this, he began to sit cross-legged and meditate, and took out some precious props that he usually prepared. He planned to rely on the help of these props to temporarily increase his power to five stars, break through the limits of this world, and gain the ability to fight against

The power of catastrophe.

All preparations took Cheng Peng two days.

In this whole process, he did everything by himself without asking anyone to intervene.

It's not that those players are unwilling to help - in fact, they are very actively trying to help. In their opinion, Cheng Peng's beloved horse crossing the tribulation is much more important than this dungeon. Even if the dungeon fails, Yu Zhui cannot be allowed to do so.

The horse crossing the tribulation failed!

However, Cheng Peng was unwilling to let them separate because of this - he was 100% sure that if these players came to help Yu Zhui Ma overcome the tribulation, maybe Yu Zhui Ma could successfully overcome the tribulation, but Liu Yi would definitely be dead.

.

Trading certain losses for possible hope is uneconomical no matter how you look at it.

What's more, Cheng Peng is quite confident in his own strength.

Although limited by world level restrictions, he can currently only exert his four-star peak strength, but there are many rare treasures in "Adventure", such as the wide variety of special props in the bloody battlefield that can be exchanged for reputation points.

Among them, there are some props that can temporarily break through the world level limit. Although the price is ridiculously expensive, the most important thing Cheng Peng, who killed Yuan Lu Zhi, now lacks is reputation points, so he has reserves around him.

Not only that, he also has many other props that can improve his strength, such as some powerful potions and spiritual water, and he also asked Liu Xueji to help buy them from some seven-star or even eight-star masters in Gensokyo.

The special magic weapons... Although most of them are one-time use, as long as the power of these things is fully utilized, I believe that the catastrophe will not be that difficult.

After all... this is just a three-star to four-star disaster!

After everything was ready, Cheng Peng took a deep breath and pressed the "Tribulation Upgrade" option on the mount management panel.

When this option is pressed, the originally sunny sky suddenly becomes covered with dark clouds.

Cheng Peng was not surprised or worried. He didn't even take out the ice gun. He just stood on the ground a few steps away from the metal cage and stared at the sky quietly.

After a while, the storm surged.

Countless amounts of black energy and white energy collided fiercely in the air, turning into streaks of golden thunder and lightning, raging in the black and white clouds, as if countless prehistoric beasts were roaring.

Cheng Peng frowned slightly, this development was not what he saw!

After a while, the thunder and lightning finally fell.

Those tall lightning rods came into play first, and the unstoppable thunder suddenly fell down, but it turned a corner before hitting Yu Zhui Ma, and was sucked by the lightning rods. The blue-white and golden lightning flashed along the pure copper.

The metal rod flowed down, seeped into the ground, and disappeared without a trace.

As mentioned on the forum, the effect of lightning rods is still very obvious.

But Cheng Peng was not happy at all.

Because he knew that the lightning rod had a fatal weakness.

After a few minutes, starting from the thinnest metal pole, the tall metal poles turned red one by one, and then gradually fell down.

"In order to reduce resistance, metals with higher purity must be used, but metals with higher purity are generally softer, especially after heating, the hardness is pitifully low. When a strong current passes through, a large amount of heat will be generated, so they

It will melt soon. There is currently no solution to this problem." This is what the expert who proposed the lightning rod on the forum said.

Just as he said, the lightning rods quickly melted and fell to the ground one by one.

Without the influence of the lightning rod, thunderbolts fell mercilessly, but hit the metal cage. Lightning flashed everywhere, and the entire cage seemed to be glowing, but Yu Zhuima standing in the middle was unscathed.

This is the famous "Faraday cage" effect in physics - electric current will pass through items with lower resistance first, so once a person is in a metal cage with a low resistance compared to the human body, he will not be susceptible to electric shock.

Unfortunately, the Faraday cage has the same shortcomings as the lightning rod.

After a few more minutes, the Faraday cage also began to melt and deform.

At this time, countless white lights rose from the ground, protecting Yu Zhuima in the middle.

Oddly enough, as soon as these white lights came on, the originally menacing thunder suddenly weakened.

Cheng Peng felt secretly relieved.

(It seems that Wei Ye’s method is still very effective)

But in fact, he really underestimated the natural disaster!

About half an hour later, the power of the formation was exhausted, but the catastrophe was still there!

So he finally had to go into battle on his own and use various means to fight against the endless thunder.

However, to his surprise, when he rushed into the sky in an attempt to fight against the calamity, the black clouds suddenly dispersed and turned into countless lightning bolts, blasting towards Yu Zhui Ma from all directions.

In an instant, Cheng Peng understood.

(This is the final blow!)

Without thinking, he increased his speed to the limit and chased the lightning.

Gun shadow, white light, fighting spirit.

When Cheng Peng tried his best to disperse more than 90% of the lightning, lightning finally arrived in front of Yu Zhuima.

But a scene that really stunned him happened - lightning fell on Yu Zhui Ma, which only caused it to smoke and tremble continuously, but it did not kill it.

Not only that, the dark clouds in the sky began to disperse...

It took Cheng Peng a long time to remember that Yu Zhui Ma had actually done good things!

When he returned to the dark world, returned from the second act to the first act, completed those tasks, and obtained two skill points, almost all the monsters and monsters along the way were eliminated by Yu Zhuima.

Although these things seemed not worth mentioning in his opinion, God's will (to put it bluntly, the system boss) was selfless and would never miss anything. Since Yu Zhuima has eliminated many demons, he has indirectly saved many people.

In this case, it can be regarded as accumulating more or less

Although the number of these merits may not be that large, in any case, they are always biased toward those who do good deeds and accumulate virtues. The original intention of Tianjie is to punish evil and promote good, so naturally they will not stubbornly insist on destroying this war beast with some merits.

Killing, even if it is a narrow escape, will leave a sliver of life.

And Cheng Peng's efforts were to seize this glimmer of hope for it!
