Chương 478: Tribulation - 478
Zhu Yi was curious as to what Chen Jie's words meant. He nodded his head in agreement before asking.
"What does that mean?"
Chen Jie responded. "It is simply the area of our universe that this planet is in. You'll understand more later. Don't worry about it too much."
Zhu Yi nodded. "Alright."
Chen Jie disappeared from where he stood. Zhu Yi turned to look at the spring of Qi and set up a time bubble.
A spring of Qi that sped up cultivation speed was something that would not normally exist. Before Zhou Fan was injured, the Qi of the universe was as dense as it needed to be. Even if it was denser, it wouldn't have really helped. Only a very slight boost would have been given.
However, in this environment with a tenth of the Qi from then, a spring of Qi that increased cultivation speed could form under strict conditions.
As Zhu Yi cultivated, he noticed that his cultivation speed had increased by two times.
With this, breaking through to the soul formation realm was not so impossible.
Around 1,300 years passed within the time bubble, and Zhu Yi reached the 10th level of the nascent soul realm. He was around 2,300 years old. Luckily, it seemed that breaking through was going to happen rather easily.
Even without Zhou Fans help, he would not have much of a bottleneck due to his king rank meridians. And with Zhou Fan's help, there was no bottleneck. 400 years later, at the age of 2,700, the old man that Zhu Yi had become broke into the soul formation realm.
Above the White Palace, clouds formed. Zhou Fan had a realization and spoke.
"Get out of here first."
Zhu Yi did not hesitate and left White Palace city, now sitting right outside of it. Luckily, such a movement was simple for a person at the peak of the nascent soul realm.
Zhu Yi looked up and saw the clouds forming. "What is that? I feel like I'm being targeted."
"I forgot about it until now. It is a tribulation. You face one in order to enter the soul formation realm, and most of the realms after that." Zhou Fan responded.
"That's stupid. Whatever." Zhu Yi stared into the clouds as lightning formed.
"You might want to get farther away from White Palace city, unless you don't mind killing everyone in it."
Zhu Yi agreed and took a few steps to the side. Those few steps took him very far, enough to avoid affecting White Palace City.
The clouds followed him without even the slightest delay.
Zhu Yi stared at the sky and waited. There was a flash of light, and Zhu Yi drew his sword. The lightning clashed with his sword and was dispersed. The clouds, however, remained.
"Is there more than one?"
"Should be three."
Zhu Yi nodded and waited.
Another bolt came down and Zhu Yi slashed it with his sword. This time, his sword felt great resistance. Still, he successfully broke the lightning bolt.
Zhu Yi got serious for the final one. He waited for a moment, and a larger lightning strike fell down.
This strike shook the ground as it fell. The rumbling even reached the White Palace City, which had long taken notice of the disturbance.
Zhu Yi sliced his sword up, using a sword wave. The sword wave struggled for a moment, before slicing through the lightning bolt and continuing into the sky. The sword wave dispersed the clouds, and Zhu Yi reached the soul formation realm.
"How many people can successfully stop that?" Zhu Yi asked.
He had to put in some effort, and anyone else would struggle just to survive.
"It gets slightly harder for those with higher talent, but not that much harder."
Zhu Yi nodded.
Now in the soul formation realm, he changed his body back to how it was before his lifespan began to age him. He now looked like he was in his early 20's.
"What next. Should I keep cultivating or try and help you recover?" Zhu Yi asked.
"King rank meridians are rather insufficent for the void traversing realm, especially in your current situation. It would be much better to find a way for me to recover more."
Zhu Yi nodded and got up. The soul formation realm gave the first huge boost in lifespan. He now had 100,000 years of lifespan. Only 2,700 of that had been used up
Zhu Yi sighed, glad that he had much more time to figure everything out. The first thing to try and test were the effects of Chaos Beasts on Zhou Fan's recovery.
If the effects were truly great, then there was hope of recovering another stage. Otherwise, there was very little hope at all.
As Zhu Yi began to fly, he felt a presence approaching from afar. It sped towards him extremely fast, stopping only a few feet in front of him.
Zhu Yi could tell in an instant that it was a soul formation realm cultivator.
"Who are you? How did you reach the soul formation realm, and why so close to White Palace City?"
"I am an independant cultivator. You can ask the writing sects Wen Si if you don't believe me."
Although it had been a very long time to Zhu Yi, not nearly as much time had passed for everyone else.
It had only been around 340 years since he arrived at the spring of Qi. Even if Wen Si was at the nascent soul realm, he would be alive right now.
The soul formation realm cultivator slightly relaxed upon mention of the writing sect.
"So you're involved with the writing sect. So be it." He said as he turned around, intending to leave.
Zhu Yi hurridely stopped him. "I want to participate in the fight against Chaos Beasts."
The soul formation realm cultivator turned around and looked at him in confusion. "Alright. Head to the Writing sect. It is actually their turn to lead the second group."
Saying that, he turned around and left.
Zhu Yi, now with a direction, headed towards the Writing sect.
