Chapter 218: A Million Jin of Terrifying Strength!

Damage to the soul origin is extremely difficult to repair, and Yang Xiao's soul body is so formidable that ordinary spiritual medicines cannot restore it.

"Heh, I used a certain offensive technique some time ago, and my soul origin is now less than ten percent. I need a long period of quiet recuperation, so don't worry." A trace of relief flickered in his eyes as Yang Xiao said with a faint smile.

"But... what kind of spiritual medicine is needed to recover?" Yang Tian clenched his fists, a mist forming in his eyes as he asked.

"If you want me to recover quickly, find some rare soul medicines or soul pills. But the quantity needed is enormous." Yang Xiao sighed. His soul origin had been depleted too much; ordinary things were far from sufficient.

"Don't worry, Uncle Xiao. I will find soul spiritual medicines!" Yang Tian clenched his fists. At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief—as long as recovery was possible.

"By the way, after you safely survive the thunder tribulation, do not break through to War King unless absolutely necessary. Your physical body is still too weak..." Yang Xiao suddenly smiled.

"Weak?" Yang Tian found it utterly unbelievable, his face full of astonishment. Was his physical body really weak?

"Indeed. Your physical body, though strong by ancient and modern standards, is far from enough. The Body Forging stage is the best time to temper the flesh, and it concerns your future path. Only when your strength reaches a million jin should you attempt to break through in cultivation."

"A million jin!" Yang Tian was instantly dumbfounded, his entire body frozen. His current strength was about two hundred thousand jin, but a million jin was an astronomical figure.

"Don't be surprised. Back then, several of my alchemy apprentices could achieve strength of several hundred thousand jin. But now, the human race neglects physical cultivation, which will become the greatest obstacle to breaking through to the Immortal realm."

"Alchemy apprentices could achieve several hundred thousand jin?" Yang Tian was completely stunned, his throat involuntarily moving.

"I don't have time to explain in detail now. I'm very curious whether this place is the Dan Fire Domain. If it is, I might recover without needing soul spiritual medicines..." As he spoke, Yang Xiao's soul body directly dissipated into the void.

"The Dan Fire Domain—I will definitely make a trip there!" Gazing at the dissipating soul figure of Yang Xiao, Yang Tian nodded heavily. Even if the Dan Valley was a dragon's den or a tiger's lair, he would still venture in.

The palace: the entire void was a blazing red, with towering flames dazzling to the eye. Layers of fire clouds rolled like magma, their scorching energy melting the void itself.

A fire domain fully three thousand zhang in size churned, burning the sky, presenting a shocking scene. The surroundings of Luoyun Stream grew increasingly silent.

The vast fire domain drew the attention of many. Numerous cultivators in the Ten Thousand Mountains discussed it, some suspecting that the treasures of Luoyun Stream were about to emerge, triggering such an anomaly.

"This is a Thunderfire Tribulation!" Inside the palace, Yang Ba suddenly exclaimed. The Thunderfire Tribulation differed from lightning; it could burn people to death under its flames, making it an extremely terrifying tribulation.

"How could Yang Tian have triggered such a tribulation? This is the kind of tribulation that appears when breaking through to War Emperor..." Kun Hu exclaimed, his face full of disbelief. Although the intensity of the tribulation was not as strong as a War Emperor's tribulation, its power was immense.

Yun'er's graceful figure stood tall. Her breath was like orchid, as if a divine lotus was blooming. At this moment, she looked at the Thunderfire Tribulation with some worry. Yang Tian had already undergone two of the Nine Great Heavenly Tribulations, and now the Thunderfire Tribulation had descended.

The hundred black-clad men showed shock on their faces. Most of them were at the Body Forging stage but had not yet experienced a single tribulation, while Yang Tian was already on his third.

Far away, the further change in Luoyun Stream drew the gaze of many. They wondered: since it was a tribulation, why had it descended upon Luoyun Stream? Was someone undergoing tribulation inside?

Rumble! The fire domain surged. Like monstrous waves, layers of fire cascaded down with earth-shaking momentum, producing a tremendous sonic boom as they rushed toward Yang Tian's body.

Yang Tian looked up. His black hair fluttered, his gaze calm, with no trace of fear in his eyes. Although the Thunderfire Tribulation was formidable, the initial waves could not harm him.

As the vast fire domain descended, some were greatly puzzled: why wasn't Yang Tian dodging? If such damage struck them, their bodies would be burned to ashes instantly.

"Bang, bang..." The fire waves struck his body, but Yang Tian stood unmoving. His body emitted a precious light, his skin crystalline, his black hair like ink, repelling the fire domain from his body. Not a trace of thunderfire touched him.

"The Thunderfire Tribulation can't harm Yang Tian! What a formidable physical body! It's practically a divine body!" Seeing this, someone couldn't help but exclaim. The surrounding tribulation lightning could not harm him in the slightest.

"That's right. Yang Tian's physique is extremely strong. He just underwent a major Body Forging and refined the medicinal power of a seventh-grade pill." Kun Bao exclaimed, praising repeatedly.

Rumble! Layers of the fire domain cascaded down without end. The area where Yang Tian stood turned into a sea of fire, and the red thunderfire gradually shifted to blue.

His black hair dancing, Yang Tian walked through the thunderfire. Sensing the changing flames, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Inside his body, the remaining medicinal power of the Body Forging Pill was still about half, and the power of that dragon clan demon core had not been absorbed at all. His body had reached saturation again and needed to break its limits.

"I wonder how far I am from Uncle Xiao's million jin of terrifying strength after this tribulation." Yang Tian murmured. A million jin of strength was terrifying—it could tear the void apart with bare hands, domineering and unparalleled.

"Every time I hit a limit, but what exactly is this 'Body Forging' that Uncle Xiao mentioned? How can I break the human body's limits?" Yang Tian was greatly puzzled.

Hum! The Tianshu Divine Sword suddenly appeared, emitting a buzzing sound. The sword body was purple-gold, radiating a cold gleam. At the sword tip was a touch of enchanting red, exuding a bloodthirsty intent.

Yang Tian tossed the Tianshu into the Thunderfire Tribulation, letting the surrounding flames refine it. The more tribulations a weapon undergoes, the faster it grows. But this also depends on the weapon's potential. Yang Tian's weapon naturally had limitless potential, forged from two divine materials.

Tianshu devoured the thunderfire, refining its sword body, drawing the attention of many around. They had seen this small sword before—it had devoured Li Long's bloodline.

Light flowed on the sword body. At this moment, the touch of crimson at the sword tip melted and merged into the sword body. Yang Tian could sense that Tianshu was absorbing this blood, growing stronger.

"Is it Tianshu absorbing the bloodline, or is Xiao Bai's bloodline absorbing it?" Yang Tian murmured in his heart. The Li family's bloodline had been devoured, and the small sword's power was increasing.

"It seems I'll need to collect some powerful bloodlines in the future." Scratching his head, a trace of fervor surged in Yang Tian's eyes. This method of enhancement was very fast. With a large quantity of bloodlines, Tianshu's advancement to a celestial artifact would accelerate greatly.

When the bloodline had been completely devoured, Tianshu stood in the thunderfire. The surrounding flames retreated, not daring to approach.

The surrounding thunderlight had no effect. Yang Ba was greatly surprised and couldn't help murmuring, "This refining material is so hard. It's strange that it can't force out the material's essence."

The fire domain filled the void, sweeping across heaven and earth with overwhelming force. As time passed, the thunderfire inside shifted from blue to deep blue, emitting a terrifying energy.

"Such strong flames! They've changed color three times." Kun Hu smacked his lips. Even he was not confident he could withstand these flames—they were extremely terrifying.

Layers of fire poured down, enveloping Yang Tian's body. His expression was serene. He sat cross-legged in the fire domain, opened his mouth, and inhaled the thunderfire, tempering himself.

"Too terrifying! Yang Tian is devouring the thunderfire. What is he trying to do?"
