“Boom!”
A thunderous roar like a sky-collapsing bellow, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket fiercely plumted from the horizon, casting an apocalyptic aura over the entire small island.
It struck directly upon the golden cicada that was tightly enveloped in golden spiritual energy.
“Hiss!”
The golden light and the lightning annihilated each other, quickly fading into nothingness.
“Master!
Can the little one endure such a formidable Eye of Heavenly Tribulation?” Duo Bao worriedly looked towards Tongtian, as if all problems could be solved by Tongtian’s presence.
Tongtian looked at the clouds covering the entire island and the rcilessly flashing Eye of Heavenly Tribulation, shaking his head and said, “Don’t rush, this is only the first of the heavenly thunders!
With eighty more to co, if it cannot even withstand this re Heavenly Thunder, it does not deserve to be my, Tongtian’s, disciple!”
“Boom!”
Another thunderbolt struck down from the sky, the pitch-black heavenly thunder once again striking upon the Sharp Gold Energy Shield.
At this mont, the Sharp Gold Energy Shield, hit twice by heavenly thunder, showed a tendency to slowly dissipate.
The spiritual energy of the small island had just been emptied, and the surrounding spiritual energy had yet to be fully replenished, nowhere near enough to satisfy the golden cicada’s absorption rate.
“Humph!
An unexpected miscalculation!” Tongtian snorted coldly, reached into his robe, and took out a jade bottle that was lustrous and could reflect light like a mirror.
After opening the stopper, a rich and enticing fragrance imdiately spread throughout the entire island.
That refreshing scent was irresistible.
“Sigh!
This little one really doesn’t let rest easy!” Tongtian said with a gentle smile, pouring out an elixir.
This elixir was golden in color, bearing nine irregular Dao patterns and seed ready to fly out of the bottle as soon as it was released.
Tongtian gently grasped the elixir, crushed it, and sprinkled it towards the golden cicada.
The spiritual energy orb that was on the verge of dissipating, as well as the Sharp Gold Spiritual Energy Shield, solidified like having taken a strong tonic.
At the sa ti, nurous visible golden arrays sprung up from the ground!
And then, countless arrays ford layer upon layer of protection shields, safeguarding the golden cicada within.
After these arrays were established, the third heavenly thunder, an enormously thick bolt, struck directly upon the ford protection shield, instantly tearing through the first layer of the shield but also reducing much of the thunder’s power invisibly.
Then the heavenly thunder struck the second layer of protection, where the two forces began to stalemate.
Soon, however, the Divine Thunder exploded without reinforcent, and the second layer of the shield also dissipated into smoke.
With the first three heavenly thunders having passed, Duo Bao, sowhat anxious and while Tongtian was not paying attention, hurriedly cast nurous protective spells, and arrays were continuously laid down by Tongtian.
Those protection shields, rising from the earth’s depths layer by layer, were also reinforced over and over, firmly guarding the golden cicada within.
Noticing Duo Bao’s small movents, Tongtian’s mouth raised slightly, his eyes filled with a smile.
Indeed, who wouldn’t want to see their own disciples loving and helping each other like siblings?
At this mont, the Eye of Heavenly Punishnt in the sky, seeming to sense that its heavenly thunder had not destroyed its intended target, suddenly erupted into fury.
The clouds across several miles converged, and a heavenly thunder several tis thicker than before once again struck down towards the golden silkworm.
The golden cicada, imrsed in a mind full of information, would not realize the terror of this heavenly thunder!
The heavenly thunder twisted and spiraled, the surrounding void violently trembling, as if enduring so unbearable pain.
“Boom!”
The heavenly thunder directly shattered the three arrays laid out by Duo Bao, and upon striking the fourth array, it was finally stopped.
Duo Bao breathed a sigh of relief but just then, the fifth heavenly thunder arrived on schedule, shattering the fourth array, the sixth, the seventh…
“Boom!
Boom!
Boom!”
The sixth heavenly thunder…
The thirty-seventh heavenly thunder…
The seventieth heavenly thunder…
Duobao shuddered as he watched the Heavenly Thunder, which had been thoroughly enraged and driven into a frenzy, and silently exclaid, “My goodness!
I never encountered such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation when I faced my own Transformation Tribulation.
The might of Heaven and Earth must truly not be underestimated!”
Tongtian’s mouth twitched slightly as he glanced at the sowhat stupefied Duo Bao and felt a tinge of bitterness in his heart.
He thought of his nephew Qingmingzi, who transcended the Heavenly Thunder and even the Divine Punishnt, which supposedly ranked higher, with as much ease as eating and drinking!
Both are third-generation disciples, yet why is it so difficult for his own disciple to transcend the Divine Punishnt?
Indeed, it’s distressing to compare oneself with others, and to find oneself wanting.
They all possess extraordinary talents, but Qingmingzi is simply an abnormality, a monster!
Suddenly, as he entered the Heart Refining Array, Li Qingming sneezed twice, puzzledly wondering, “What’s this about?
With my current level of Cultivation Realm, I could still sneeze?
They say that it’s flattery if you think about it once, cursing if twice, and longing if thrice!
Who’s that heartless soul daring to badmouth behind my back?
They better not let find out!
Otherwise, hmph!”
…
Eighty strikes of Heavenly Thunder had already been unleashed by the Eye of Heavenly Punishnt, and the atmosphere on the small island had turned rather eerie.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishnt in the sky was silent!
Dead silent!
After so ti, this silence was finally broken!
The eighty-first strike of Heavenly Thunder eventually moved.
However, contrary to what Tongtian expected, the clouds did not draw in Spiritual Energy from within tens of thousands of miles to bulk itself up.
Instead, they continuously extracted the Earth Veins’ energy from the surrounding small islands to attack the arrays around the Golden Cicada.
It seems to seize this final opportunity to completely pulverize the Golden Cicada into dust.
The Eye of Heavenly Punishnt in the sky finally began to gather thunder and lightning, and the thunder roaring wildly within the dark clouds filled the entire small island with a terrifying presence.
“Master!
Master, please make your move now!” Duo Bao could hardly hold back his tears, as today, he had truly witnessed sothing astounding.
Since his Transformation, he had never foreseen such a massive scale of Heavenly Punishnt.
Nor had he ever felt death so close to him.
That deep chill that penetrates the skin, soaks into the marrow, grips the soul!
“Boom!”
The long-gestating final strike of Heavenly Thunder finally thundered down.
Amidst the blackness, a streak of purple lightning transford into a giant dragon, soaring and roaring!
Its ferocious contortions deeply imprinted upon Duo Bao’s heart.
Tongtian looked at the pitch-black lightning dragon with pride, his cold smile blooming with an unusual radiance, his dense black hair fluttering in the wind, exuding an air of wild abandon.
“Break!”
The Qingping Sword, erald green, did not exhibit any magnificent radiance nor did it grow enormously.
All it did was a light slice with its three-foot-long green blade!
“Pfft!”
Heaven and Earth suddenly cleared!
An ancient, strong aura instantly tore through the void, and a pitch-black chasm appeared abruptly, its powerful suction instantly devouring all of the dark clouds and the Eye of Heavenly Punishnt.
Tongtian put away the Qingping Sword, patted his Daoist robe, and chuckled, “It’s over!”
The empty azure sky bead down an extrely dazzling yellow light, which directly enveloped the Golden Cicada.
This was an incredibly mystical force.
It transford all the arrays surrounding the Golden Cicada into streams of extrely dense Spiritual Energy, which rolled and poured into the golden light.
Approximately an hour later, the brilliance dissipated, and a woman capable of causing the downfall of a nation appeared before them.
Her arched eyebrows seed veiled in mist, her eyes expressing faint reproach and delight, her petite and exquisite nose, and naturally rosy cherry lips, skin smooth as congealed fat, cheeks like blooming rosy clouds, a slender waist that could not be fully grasped, she stood gracefully leaning against a splendid golden boat.
The woman put away her actual body transformation, the Spiritual Treasure Golden Boat, walked towards Tongtian, and perford a curtsy, her tender voice saying, “Golden Cicada pays respects to Master!”
Tongtian’s mouth held a smile as he said, “Good!
Good!
I am a disciple of Taoist Ancestor Hong Jun, the Upper Pure Tongtian Saint!
I hereby grant you the Taoist na Jinling and you shall be my second disciple sitting in my presence, with this chubby one being your senior brother Duobao!
From now on, rember to love and cherish each other, and value the bonds of our sect!”
Jinling blinked her bright eyes and bowed, “Disciple Jinling pays respect to Master!
Greetings to my senior brother!”
Tongtian then laughed heartily to the sky, “Haha, good!”
Thus, Tongtian took in his second disciple, who would be known in future generations as the Golden Spirit Saint Mother!
Since then, Tongtian’s enthusiasm for accepting disciples beca unstoppable!
Along the way, he took on disciples who would beco well-known in posterity, such as Wudang Saint Mother, Wuyun Immortal, Qiu Shouxian, Golden Light Immortal, Lingya Immortal, Golden Hoop Immortal, Pilu Immortal, Han Zhi Immortal, and the biggest defector of Jie Sect in later legends, the Long-eared Ding Guang Xian!
From this mont on, the formation of Jie Sect’s All Immortals started taking shape!
