Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

Zhang Chen was amazed as he felt his body was reborn, but he didn't feel happy for long before a bigger purple thunderbolt struck. Feeling the might of destroying the world, Zhang Chen immediately mobilized all his energy and blood to form a protective shield around him.

However, the shield was like ice and snow encountering sunlight, and it slowly melted away. It had no power to resist at all. Then lightning struck his whole body again. Zhang Chen immediately fainted. His whole body was like charcoal, still steaming, and he had been burned beyond recognition.

The spirit of the instrument discovered that Zhang Chen's breath was extremely weak, like a candle in the wind that could go out at any time. How could it dare to delay? It immediately took out the porcelain bottle containing the source of life and dripped a drop into Zhang Chen's mouth.

Afterwards, Zhang Chen's body recovered quickly like a dead tree coming back to life. In a moment, Zhang Chen was back to normal. Zhang Chen felt that his physical strength had become a little stronger, especially the spiritual energy in his body seemed to have been purified and became different from before. Although he was only in the middle stage of foundation building, it seemed that the spiritual energy in his body was more powerful than those cultivators who were at the peak of foundation building.

However, these changes did not make Zhang Chen happy, because the thunder tribulation above his head seemed to sense that Zhang Chen's aura was increasing instead of decreasing. It immediately seemed to be enraged, and then condensed an even more powerful thunder tribulation, as if it would not stop until it destroyed Zhang Chen.

Feeling the thunder tribulation which was even stronger than before, despair appeared on Zhang Chen's face. According to the description of the weapon spirit, he was already on the verge of death in the last blow. The current thunder tribulation was half as strong as before, and his own strength had not increased that much. He could not resist it no matter what. Even if he had the origin of life, the person was dead and there was no way to save him.

"Is this the end? I won't accept this."

Zhang Chen looked up at the thunder that was about to fall from the sky and let out an angry roar.

"There is another way. You can combine the spiritual power and the blood power in your body into one, so that your physical strength can break through again. You may still have a chance to escape this disaster."

The spirit of the weapon suddenly spoke to Zhang Chen.

"How can the two become one?"

"Penetrating the bridge between heaven and earth, opening up the passages between the upper and lower Dantian, allowing the spiritual power to merge with the power of Qi and blood."

“Isn’t that something that can only be done when one enters the physical divine realm? How can I do it now?”

Zhang Chen was shocked. Even if he broke through slowly, it would take a lot of time. How could he do that in the current situation?

"Hold a drop of life source in your mouth, and don't worry about anything else. When the thunder tribulation comes, don't worry about anything else. Just use the power of your Qi and blood to form a channel, guide the power of thunder and lightning to the bridge between heaven and earth in your body, and use the power of the thunder tribulation to help you penetrate the channel. If you still have a breath at that time, you will have a chance to recover with the help of this fake god-man realm."

The spirit of the weapon quickly gave orders.

Zhang Chen had no other choice but to do as he was told. Then a terrifying thunderstorm struck and Zhang Chen lost consciousness in an instant. In the dark space, after an unknown amount of time, a ray of light suddenly ignited, and then the light continued to grow, soon illuminating the entire room.

Zhang Chen also slowly opened his eyes, first looked at the surrounding environment, and then returned to his senses.

“I managed it?”

"Yeah, that was a close call. I couldn't sense your breath anymore and thought you were dead. I didn't expect you to survive. Let me check on you. How are you now?"

The spirit of the weapon urged him on, after all, the thunder tribulation had not yet ended.

Zhang Chen felt his body at this moment and found that earth-shaking changes had taken place in his body. His upper and lower dantian had been pierced through, and his spiritual power and qi and blood power had merged together to form a purple energy that circulated endlessly in his body.

Zhang Chen felt amazing power from this purple force, which was more than twice as powerful as the power of qi and blood. After the purple power circulated once, Zhang Chen felt that his physical strength increased by one point. Moreover, Zhang Chen felt amazing life force from this purple power.

"Okay, very good, come again."

Zhang Chen felt the situation inside his body and couldn't help but get excited. He looked up at the thunder in the sky with great enthusiasm and clenched his fists.

The thunder tribulation seemed to be sensitive and whistled down directly, with its power increased by 30%. Zhang Chen was confident this time and condensed purple qi and blood to form a protective shield around him. When the thunder tribulation struck, Zhang Chen clearly felt that the power of the thunder tribulation was not so easy to tear open the defense formed by the purple qi and blood. Although the shield formed by the purple qi and blood was slowly dissipating, it also consumed a large amount of the power of the thunder tribulation.

Finally, after consuming most of the power of the thunder tribulation, Zhang Chen's purple qi and blood shield was broken, but he could now bear the power of the thunder tribulation. Coupled with the amazing recovery ability of the purple qi and blood, his injuries soon recovered.

"Generally, there are no more than five lightning tribulations in the Jindan stage. It seems that you should have survived them."

The spirit of the weapon appeared and sat on Zhang Chen's blackened shoulder. It looked up in the sky and saw that there was no further thunder condensation.

Zhang Chen heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and then quickly recovered his spiritual energy and blood. Because Xiao Che's thunder tribulation was only two left and was about to end, Zhang Chen quickly tried to find a way to leave this place.

With a loud bang, a thunder tribulation several times more powerful than the one Zhang Chen had experienced struck down and headed straight for Xiao Che. Xiao Che was furious and with a loud shout, dozens of golden shields appeared, overlapping and protecting him. The lightning broke through the shields layer by layer, and by the time it reached Xiao Che, it had been weakened by nearly half. Even so, the remaining lightning struck Xiao Che into a miserable state. His body was almost covered with scars, and only charred bones were left on his hands and feet.

Afterwards, he was seen taking a pill and practicing his martial arts. The spiritual energy in his body was constantly recovering, and his injured body was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After half an incense stick of time, the last thunderbolt in the sky struck down. Its power was almost doubled compared to the previous one. Xiao Che also showed unprecedented solemnity. His spiritual power surged out as if his life depended on it. Countless spiritual medicines that could restore spiritual energy and heal damage gathered around him and turned directly into mist, ready to replenish him at any time.

Rumble, the last thunder tribulation finally fell in front of the terrified gazes of all the watching monks. The overwhelming momentum made all the monks tremble in their hearts, and the dazzling white light made everyone dare not look directly at it.

"Take this opportunity to leave quickly."

Zhang Chen was still immersed in this huge movement, and remembered the urgent urging voice of the spirit of the weapon in his mind.

Zhang Chen immediately condensed a pair of purple wings behind him. There was a loud bang under his feet, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant, rushing straight into the sky. The Qingyu Gate's defense formation here had long been withdrawn because of the thunder tribulation, so Zhang Chen had the opportunity to escape.

Just as he was halfway in the air, an extremely refreshing breath came, and an incomparably pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth appeared and went straight to Xiao Che. This was the reward from Heaven for those who had survived the thunder tribulation. It could quickly heal the injuries of those who had suffered the thunder tribulation, and it could also stabilize the cultivation. It was crucial for the cultivator to condense his Nascent Soul next.

"good chance."

The spirit of the weapon was overjoyed, and the Qilin Armor immediately revealed its original form, madly absorbing the spiritual energy of the world. Then, a dazzling light emitted from the surface of the Qilin Armor, blinding everyone.

"You dare."

Suddenly a loud shout was heard and the surrounding space began to tremble.

The spirit's expression changed, and the Qilin Armor was put on Zhang Chen, and then he shouted:

"Run, the Nascent Soul cultivator is coming."

Zhang Chen immediately flapped his wings, and his figure was as fast as lightning. He disappeared from the spot in an instant and flew fifty miles away. Zhang Chen thought he had escaped and wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but the surrounding space became as if solidified. Zhang Chen's flying speed immediately decreased greatly. Then, in Zhang Chen's frightened expression, a middle-aged man in a gray robe appeared in the distance. He just stepped lightly in the air, and Zhang Chen felt his heart skip a beat. Then the middle-aged man came in front of Zhang Chen, and looked at him with sharp eyes. Zhang Chen immediately felt his breathing stagnate.
