The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 822 Promotion to Nascent Soul

Yu Lei Sect, the top of Zi Lei Mountain.

It was still the place where Pan Chengfeng survived the tribulation last time. He Chaoran sat in the old position and said lightly: "Come in~"

Pan Chengfeng glanced at the empty space in front of him, felt the subtle fluctuation of mana, and asked, "What formation was set up this time?"

He Chaoran replied: "Your tribulation this time is very serious. My attainments in formations are too shallow, so I asked Huangfu Yu to arrange it. He also took away a rare ore from me."

After He Chaoran finished speaking, he rarely showed an expression of pain.

"Huangfu Yu?" Pan Chengfeng asked in surprise: "He actually dared to ask the ancestor for something? How dare he be so bold?"

Shangguan Yun explained: "This is your personal matter, not the sect's business. As the sect's formation master, he has no obligation to help you. If the ancestor hadn't asked, our sect wouldn't have been able to invite him."

It can be seen how high the status of these masters and grandmasters is in the sect. Even Shangguan Yun cannot invite them unless it is for the sect.

Someone may ask, if a sect’s disciples are promoted, how come it is not the sect’s business?

The Yu Lei Sect has more than one million disciples. If every one of them needs him to set up a formation to advance, then what is he? He'd be too busy to do anything.

What's more, Huangfu Yu already has a lot of things to do. He is responsible for all the formations in the sect, including the sect protection formation.

He had to teach students, give lectures outside, exchange experiences on formations with formation masters and grandmasters from other sects, and so on.

If you say that Shangguan Yun needs to set up a formation to advance to the Mahayana stage, then Huangfu Yu will definitely be the one to do it.

But Pan Chengfeng is not qualified to order Huangfu Yu around.

Pan Chengfeng touched his chin and said, "I see. After I advance successfully, I will also have to thank Uncle Huangfu."

"We'll talk about this later~" He Chaoran said calmly: "This time we're setting up a sixth-grade formation, the 'Tian Gang Xingxiu Formation'!

It can increase the mana and defense of everyone in the formation by 30%.

It is also the most helpful formation for you to overcome the tribulation this time. Other formations are either too expensive or can only help you resist the first few before being shattered by purple thunder.

This formation can continuously improve your strength by 30%. Now, whether you can break through the last level and advance to the Nascent Soul stage depends on you."

Pan Chengfeng bowed to Shangguan Yun and He Chaoran, and said gratefully: "Thank you for your trouble, Old Ancestor and Sect Master. I will definitely make a breakthrough successfully! The future of the Yu Lei Sect is in my hands!"

After finishing speaking, Pan Chengfeng turned around and walked into the formation. With a slight humming sound, He Chaoran activated the formation.

Pan Chengfeng immediately felt that his magic power had increased significantly, and a faint yellow protective shield appeared on his body.

After feeling the benefits brought by the formation again, Pan Chengfeng secretly sighed: "What a magical formation, it actually gave me 30% more combat power! The formation master is really amazing!"

'For nothing'? Pan Chengfeng had no idea that all the materials needed to set up this formation were provided by He Chaoran. If converted into spirit stones, it would be 30 million high-grade spirit stones!

How could there be benefits that come for free in this world?

Pan Chengfeng sat down cross-legged and took out the pills he had prepared long ago, including Infant Transformation Pills, Advanced True Essence Pills, Top-grade Spirit Stones, etc.

After taking inventory of the items needed for the breakthrough, Pan Chengfeng took a deep breath and began to adjust his state of mind. He sat there for seven days and seven nights.

On the eighth day, Pan Chengfeng opened his eyes, picked up a piece of top-grade spirit stone without hesitation and swallowed it directly into his stomach. He held four pieces in his hand at the same time and began to practice the secret art of swallowing spirits.

Shangguan Yun stood behind He Chaoran and said nervously: "My magic power is full and I'm about to break through..."

Pan Chengfeng also felt the bottleneck. He picked up a bottle of Zhenyuan Pill and poured it directly into his mouth. A violent spiritual energy began to impact the golden elixir in his body!

At the beginning, the golden elixir was still absorbing spiritual energy and transforming it into true essence, but as the spiritual energy continued to flow in, the speed of the golden elixir's transformation gradually could not keep up, but the spiritual energy still continued to impact the golden elixir.

Pan Chengfeng showed a look of pain on his face, but this pain was nothing compared to his breakthrough in body refining technique.

This situation lasted for three days. Suddenly, the golden elixir cracked with a sound, and a thin black crack appeared. Pan Chengfeng thought to himself, "Here it comes!"

He picked up the Infant Transformation Pills and poured them into his mouth all at once, taking ten Infant Transformation Pills at once. Only someone like Pan Chengfeng who had no shortage of pills could do that.

As soon as he took the Infant Transformation Pill, more cracks appeared on the golden elixir, and there was a constant crackling sound. Pan Chengfeng knew that the golden elixir was about to transform into an infant, and this process could not be stopped.

Once the transformation into an infant stops, the difficulty of transforming the pill into an infant next time will increase several times!

Another bottle of Infant Transformation Pill was swallowed. The cracks in the golden pill continued to increase, and the gold color on the surface slowly fell off, revealing the goose egg-sized Infant inside.

The Yuanying looks like a smaller version of Pan Chengfeng, pink and tender, with curled limbs and eyes closed.

Pan Chengfeng immediately felt the presence of the Nascent Soul and thought to himself, "What a magical feeling. This feeling... the Nascent Soul is me, and I am the Nascent Soul!"

However, the infant transformation is only halfway through, and the outer shell of the golden elixir has not yet completely fallen off. We must continue to work hard!

Pan Chengfeng gritted his teeth and continued to absorb spiritual energy, whether it was the Infant Transformation Pill, the top-grade spirit stone, or the True Essence Pill, he ate them all again.

Shangguan Yun on the side said with a wry smile: "If this happened in a small sect, who would be able to withstand his consumption of resources..."

He Chaoran said calmly: “On average, it takes more than 100,000 years for a Savage Saint Body to appear, so such consumption is not surprising.

It looks like there should be no problem with the Infant Transformation. The next thunder tribulation is the key."

The process of infant transformation was very slow. Pan Chengfeng consumed more than a thousand top-grade spirit stones, fifteen bottles of infant transformation pills, and countless true essence pills.

All resources were used on Pan Chengfeng's Nascent Soul. The fist-sized Nascent Soul slowly grew larger, and finally opened its eyes, stretched its limbs, and said with a grin, "It's done! It's good to have top-grade spirit stones. It reduces a lot of resistance~"

The Nascent Soul transformation lasted for a full month before it was completed. Finally, Pan Chengfeng's Nascent Soul flew out from the top of his head and he laughed, "I'm a Nascent Soul cultivator now! Hahahahaha!! This feels so good! So powerful! I feel like I can even merge with the Celestial Beings!!! Hahaha!"

A voice entered the excited Pan Chengfeng's mind: "Boy, the next step is the key. The thunder tribulation is about to come. You should quickly practice your skills and get used to the sudden increase in magic power."

Upon hearing this, Pan Chengfeng hurriedly took his Nascent Soul back into his body, circulated the huge magical power in his body, and performed two big cycles in a row. Half a day had passed.

The sky seemed to be torn apart, with clouds rolling in the cracks.

Thick, inky black clouds pressed down on the sky, looking so heavy that they seemed about to fall.

Pan Chengfeng looked at the changes in the sky and murmured to himself, "After surviving the thunder tribulation, I will officially become a Nascent Soul cultivator.
