chapter 152
After the two Patriarchs heard about Shaolin's Dharma, they received a great opportunity and directly broke through on the spot where Shaolin stood.
They were preparing to form the Golden Core.
The tense atmosphere spread.
Especially the Abbot of Wenshu Yuan, Guang Liang, and the Sect Leader of Heng Dao Sect, An Ruyun.
They were excited that their Patriarchs could have such an opportunity and longed to form the Golden Core with the two Patriarchs. They were nervous because they were caught off guard and unprepared.
They were afraid that their Patriarchs would fail to form the Golden Core and die.
Lao Zhuangzhu, Ji Yuan, and the Patriarch of the Nangong family, Nangong Wentian, were also very nervous. They were doing their best to protect the two Patriarchs.
The pilgrims and believers were amazed by the two Patriarchs who had reached the pinnacle of martial arts in Tianbei City.
It was a natural phenomenon caused by a breakthrough.
A Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator breaking through to the Golden Core Stage was a scene that was hard to come by in a lifetime.
At this time, the sky was dark. A large patch of dark clouds gathered in the sky above Shaoshi Mountain.
A gale suddenly rose, whistling unceasingly.
As the black clouds pressed down, a sense of fear towards the Heavenly Dao arose in everyone's hearts.
The atmosphere was very tense.
With the two Patriarchs as the center, they formed a spirit energy vortex and set off strong winds.
The dark clouds in the sky had already begun to brew lightning.
Terrifying purple lightning flashed past.
To form the Golden Core, one needed to borrow the power of nature and use the power of lightning to refine one's strength.
Only then could one gather all the strength in one's body to form a Golden Core. The power of lightning would also engrave Dao patterns on the Golden Core.
Therefore, the real test was this tribulation like lightning.
It was feared that one would die under this lightning.
The risk of being turned into ashes.
Could one dodge it with lightning?
One could dodge it or even resist it. However, the problem was that martial artists needed to use lightning to refine their bodies and form the Golden Core.
They also needed the lightning to engrave their own Dao patterns on the Golden Core.
If one tried to dodge it, resist it, or find a way to take a shortcut, would one still form the Golden Core and engrave Dao patterns?
To a certain extent, this lightning was a test and also a kind of help for martial artists.
At this moment, a large patch of dazzling blue water elemental energy appeared in the sky.
It surrounded Grandma Zihua like a cloud of water.
It started to drizzle.
"That's the Heng Dao Sect's earth-grade technique, the Water Cloud Art."
"Oh my god, Grandma Zihua's Water Cloud Art has reached perfection."
"Granny Zihua is a prodigy of the Heng Dao Sect. Her understanding of the Water Cloud Art is unparalleled in the Heng Dao Sect."
"Is this the martial strength of the two Patriarchs?"
"Is Grandma Zi Hua going to form her Gold Core first?"
...
...
Above Grandma Zihua's head, dark clouds gathered and the power of lightning was formed. It emitted an unparalleled pressure.
She had displayed her full strength.
He was already prepared to welcome the power of lightning that was about to descend at this moment.
All the pilgrims and believers were filled with anticipation and excitement.
The abbot of Wenshu Yuan, Guang Liang, Lao Zhuangzhu, Ji Yuan, and the head of the Nangong family, Nangong Wentian, were all nervous.
On the other hand, the head of the Hengdao Sect, An Ruyun, was filled with worry.
"Why is Grandma so impatient?"
"She didn't make any preparations."
The head of the Heng Dao Sect, An Ruyun, was filled with worry when she saw that Grandma Zihua was going to form the Golden Core first.
Her face was filled with anxiety and worry.
"Yes, why is Grandma Zihua so impatient?"
"Grandma Zihua is too dangerous."
"The thirst to attain the Dao. This sudden opportunity might be precious, but in such a hurry …"
...
Guang Liang, Ji Yuan, and Nangong Wentian couldn't help but worry when they saw this.
Both Senior Monk Zhiyun and Grandma Zihua had obtained the opportunity to attain Dao at the same time.
They had chosen to break through on the spot.
However, their methods were completely different. Senior Monk Zhiyun wasn't in a hurry. He was still polishing his strength.
He was improving his comprehension to perfection.
He was still chanting Buddhist scriptures and maintaining his essence, energy, and spirit to the peak.
Grandma Zihua, on the other hand, looked impatient. She was caught off guard and wasn't prepared at all.
She was impatient when faced with the opportunity to attain Dao.
To a certain extent, Grandma Zihua's state of mind was far inferior to Senior Monk Zhiyun's.
It was like a person who had worked hard for a lifetime for a dream.
Finally, she had a chance.
She was only one step away from realizing her dream.
However, she couldn't control herself at this moment. She couldn't suppress her desire for her dream.
She was too eager for quick success.
This was already a problem with her state of mind.
Boom!
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning gathered in the dark clouds and struck Grandma Zihua.
The power of the lightning continuously tempered the pure essence energy on Grandma Zihua's body.
The pilgrims and believers were so frightened by the power of heaven and earth that their faces turned pale.
Their faces were filled with fear. Even though they were quite far away, they still retreated one after another.
"How can this Heavenly Tribulation be so strong?"
"Can Grandma Zihua withstand this test of Dao Attainment?"
"This Heavenly Tribulation Lightning is really terrifying. If Grandma Zihua can't withstand it until she reaches Core Formation …"
…
It could be said that the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was so powerful that it far exceeded the imagination of Guang Liang, An Ruyun, and Ji Yuan.
They had never seen anyone reach Core Formation before.
At that very moment, when they saw Granny Zihua, in such a hurried and impatient manner, welcoming the incomparably frightening Heavenly Might, their hearts trembled.
They were terrified, worried, and anxious.
One had to know that many seniors had made sufficient preparations, but in the end, there were still many who failed and died.
Grandma Zihua was caught off guard and in such a hurry to break through on the spot. It was needless to say how great the risk was.
Boom!
Boom!
…
The terrifying Heavenly Tribulation Lightning struck several more bolts of lightning.
Endless purple energy continuously tempered Grandma Zihua's body.
Pu!
At this moment, Grandma Zihua's face turned pale. She spat out a mouthful of blood. The endless, dazzling pure essence energy.
It completely collapsed and dissipated.
Boom!
Another terrifying bolt of purple lightning!
"Haha …"
"I have no more regrets …"
Accompanied by a long laugh, under the purple lightning, Grandma Zihua was directly reduced to ashes, her Dao vanishing.
The sky was filled with a blue light screen.
Dark clouds covered the sky. The rain stopped and the wind continued.
In Tianbei City, Grandma Zihua, a prodigy of an era, was a peak-level Patriarch.
She turned into ashes just like that.
She died just like that.
Although she died, she had no regrets. To Grandma Zihua, she had bitterly pursued the Dao for her entire life and finally found the opportunity to break through.
Understanding the mysteries of Core Formation was enough to make her truly satisfied.
Even if she failed to reach Core Formation and died, she had no regrets.
A group of pilgrims and believers saw Grandma Zihua, the Patriarch of Heng Dao Sect, a peak-level existence in Tianbei City.
Just like that, his body and Dao vanished. His heart was deeply shaken.
Their faces were pale.
They looked fearful.
The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was so terrifying.
Guang Liang, Ji Yuan, and Nangong Wentian felt an indescribable pain in their hearts.
An Ruyun, in particular, had tears of blood in her beautiful eyes. The Patriarch of Heng Dao Sect was gone just like that.
She was gone in an instant.
It was as if they were in a dream.
The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was cold and merciless.
At this moment, Monk Zhiyun started chanting Buddhist scriptures. Golden Buddhist imprints appeared on his body.
Everyone had yet to recover from the shock of Grandma Zihua's de
ath.
Monk Zhiyun was about to break through.
He was enduring the test of the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning.
"Quickly invite Abbot Xuanxin!"
With Grandma Zihua's painful experience, Abbot Guang Liang shouted impatiently.
