Chapter 248: Chapter 248 Heavenly Tribulation Body Tempering
"Is this the second disciple from Qingyun Peak about to undergo the Tribulation?"
"It seems this time it\'s Qingyun Peak\'s second disciple, Lu Qinglian, who is going to face the Tribulation."
"Her physique is the Martial King Divine Physique, the strongest among the Huang Tribe. If the Martial King Divine Physique reaches Great Accomplishment, even the former Demon Lord would pale in comparison."
"Once she gets through the Heavenly Tribulation, I\'m afraid even the Supreme Elders of all the peaks will have a headache. She used to only challenge the Elders of the Dao Palace Realm, and now she\'s about to challenge the Supreme Elders in the Void Refinement Realm."
Situ Kong and Taiyuan True Man were surprised by the continuous Tribulations of Qingyun Peak\'s disciples, while at the same time, they felt a chill for the Supreme Elders of Mount Shu.
The Martial King Divine Physique is a combatant\'s physique, yearning for battle and growing amidst incessant fighting.
Once Lu Qinglian enters the Void Refinement Realm, the Supreme Elders of Mount Shu will hardly escape their plight.
Sure enough, the Supreme Elders at Ten Thousand Swords Peak, who were comprehending the essence of the sword, exchanged glances as their Daoist Robes were soaked with sweat.
Lu Qinglian grew stronger with each battle, and as a combat fanatic, even the Supreme Elders of Mount Shu would no longer have peace in the future.
"Even the second disciple of Brother Lu\'s is catching up to my cultivation level. Just how do the disciples of Qingyun Peak practice?"
Elder brother Li Changye shook his head with a wry smile.
Indeed, each of the disciples from Qingyun Peak was an exceptional talent, stepping into the Void Refinement Realm in just a few decades.
According to the normal rate, wouldn\'t it take hundreds of years of cultivation to reach the Void Refinement Realm?
The disciples and master of Qingyun Peak had shattered Mount Shu\'s understanding of cultivation.
At this moment, the first wave of the Threefold Heavenly Tribulation triggered by Lu Qinglian had descended, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder illuminated the heavens and the earth, striking down from the sky!
Lu Qinglian\'s hair danced wildly, dressed in the Red Lotus Battle Skirt, she faced the descending thunder with bare hands, clashing against the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!
Boom!
Lu Qinglian exerted her full strength to use the Red Lotus Sky-Devouring Art, her fists carrying the Fire Lotus True Qi, shattered the thunderbolt that fell from the sky!
The thunderbolt splintered, with silver snakes dancing wildly!
Lu Qinglian chose the most straightforward and brutal method to pass the Tribulation, that was with her fists, smashing the thunderbolts!
"…"
The observing protector, Lu Changsheng, was dumbfounded.
Lu Qinglian\'s method of transcending the Tribulation was indeed decisive.
Compared to Lin Qingzhi, who excelled in strategy, Lu Qinglian\'s Martial King Divine Physique didn\'t consider as much.
Disregarding life and death, if you refuse to comply, just fight!
Boom!
Another thunderbolt was shattered by Lu Qinglian\'s fist.
The Divine Thunder hanging from the Nine Heavens was so dense that even with Lu Qinglian\'s relentless punching, some still struck her.
Lu Qinglian\'s figure slightly fell a dozen or so zhang from the sky, but having been struck by the Divine Thunder, she became even more exhilarated, as her Martial King Divine Physique was actually absorbing the residual power of the Divine Thunder, using the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder for Body Tempering!
"What kind of move is this?"
Lu Changsheng was shocked once more.
If Lu Qinglian was simply relying on the strength of the Martial King Divine Physique to withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, that would have been one thing, as that was theoretically sound.
But for Lu Qinglian to utilize the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to temper her Martial King Divine Physique, this was beyond Lu Changsheng\'s expectations.
The Martial King Divine Physique sure was a domineering Martial Body Physique, even capable of using the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder for Body Tempering.
This also gave Lu Changsheng an inspiration.
If, during the tribulation, Lu Changsheng was confident enough, he could also use the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder for body tempering, taking his physical body to the next level.
"I must say, my disciple has brought me quite a few surprises."
Lu Changsheng was even more eager to see the extent of power the Martial King Divine Physique, once tempered by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, would achieve.
The first layer of the Heavenly Tribulation had been forcibly shattered by Lu Qinglian with her overbearing Martial King Divine Physique, which further tempered her body in the process.
The Red Flood Dragon Gold Pill of eighth grade that Lu Qinglian had swallowed still hadn\'t exhausted its tremendous medicinal power when the second layer of the Heavenly Tribulation descended.
Countless Nine Heavens Divine Thunders struck down, and Lu Qinglian, soaring into the mid-air, unleashed the Eight Desolations Fist, shattering the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder that fell one after another.
Even when struck by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, the Martial King Divine Physique could absorb the power of the divine thunder and temper itself.
Lu Qinglian\'s method of undergoing tribulation was rather ordinary, but it was precisely this way that she smoothly passed the second layer of the Heavenly Tribulation.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The third layer of the Heavenly Tribulation approached with a ferocity that darkened the sun and moon, dimmed the heaven and earth, as the Thunder Pond descended!
The tribulation that Lu Qinglian faced was weaker than the one summoned by Lu Changsheng but stronger than the one brought forth by Lin Qingzhi, lying somewhere between the two.
Faced with the third layer of the Heavenly Tribulation, Lu Qinglian was not so relaxed anymore and had to exert her full strength in every punch to shatter each streak of Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
Each time the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder struck the Martial King Divine Physique, it took great effort for the physique to absorb the thunderous power of a single streak of divine thunder.
Lu Qinglian, in midair, suffered continuous bombardment by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, gradually getting struck down from the sky.
Streaks of Nine Heavens Divine Thunder poured down relentlessly, plunging the surrounding land into a desolate state.
The ground where Lu Qinglian stood was pitted with deep holes from the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder\'s strikes.
Towards the end, even the tyrannical Martial King Divine Physique couldn\'t cope, and Lu Qinglian was struck repeatedly by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder. Fractures began to appear on her Red Lotus Battle Skirt, and even fragments started to fly off.
But the essence of Lu Qinglian herself still showed no signs of being scorched.
Lu Qinglian\'s eyes were resolute, defying the Heavenly Tribulation with a punch and a palm, one after another, stubbornly refusing to use any magical artifacts and relying solely on her Martial King Divine Physique to withstand the tribulation.
In the final throes of the tribulation\'s onslaught, the Martial King Divine Physique eventually withstood the attacks of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
The Threefold Heavenly Tribulation, lasting a total of two hours, finally dispersed, and Lu Qinglian still stood steadfast in the center of the deep pit.
After the tribulation, the Martial King Divine Physique frantically absorbed spiritual energy from nature within a hundred-mile radius to repair her injured meridians.
As Lu Qinglian\'s body was tempered by the Threefold Heavenly Tribulation, Lu Changsheng could feel that her Martial King Divine Physique, after the divine thunder\'s tempering, had already achieved the strength of a lower-grade Immortal Artifact.
"Just at the first level of the Void Refinement Realm, her physique compares to a lower-grade Immortal Artifact; I seem to have cultivated a monster here."
With Lu Changsheng\'s discerning eyes, it was not difficult to see that Lu Qinglian\'s Martial King Divine Physique could now be compared to a lower-grade Immortal Artifact.
In the future, once her Martial King Divine Physique reached great accomplishment, its strength comparable to a higher-grade Immortal Artifact, or even an Ultimate Treasure, was not an impossibility.
The Martial King Divine Physique itself was already an artifact.
"Here are your original clothes."
Seeing that Lu Qinglian\'s Red Lotus Battle Skirt was in shreds, Lu Changsheng threw her the original Phoenix Feather Universe Clothes to change into and then return with him to Qingyun Peak.
Lu Qinglian having safely undergone tribulation was not a matter of concern for Lu Changsheng, even if a top-quality Innate Spirit Treasure like the Red Lotus Battle Skirt was destroyed; he wasn\'t about to fret over one Innate Spirit Treasure.
Now that Lu Qinglian had stepped into the Void Refinement Realm, Lu Changsheng could bestow upon her higher-level magical artifacts and martial techniques. The Power-infusing Initiation could also restore more cultivation to her.
