I can gather experience beads

In fact, quite a few people from the Yunshui Sect and Miaoyin Temple who were in the Foundation Establishment stage died in the Tianji Fortress.

In terms of the strength of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage alone, the Spirit Beast Sect is currently the strongest in the southwest of Yunzhou.

This might also be the reason why Gu Qingying was eager to annex the power of the Spirit Beast Sect after being promoted to the Golden Core stage.

The gate of the Spirit Beast Sect opened, and following Cao Rui's command, cultivators rushed in all directions.

Cao Rui himself temporarily fled to the ruins in the back mountain.

At this time, in front of the Lingtan Pond in the back mountain, the Beast Ancestor turned into a several-meter-long creature, circling quietly and lying in front of the Lingtan Pond.

Lingtan did not fall into ruins along with the main peak, and it was obvious that the Beast Ancestor had given it some protection.

Its body looked a little weak, having lost its former majesty.

The final battle with Gu Qingying consumed all its life essence, making it so fragile.

Zixiao seemed to sense something, and circled around the Beast Ancestor anxiously. It seemed to realize that something important was about to happen.

"Boy Cao, it seems I don't have time to listen to your stories about the demons." The Beast Ancestor's voice sounded particularly low, with a hint of regret.

Its gaze slowly turned towards Cao Rui, the light in its eyes was extremely dim, as if it could go out at any time.

Cao Rui's heart tightened. He could feel the intense fatigue from the Beast Ancestor.

He walked quickly forward, sat down gently in front of the Beast Ancestor, and listened quietly to the Beast Ancestor's final words.

"However, I know that in ancient times, the demons invaded three times, and all of them ended with the victory of the monks from our Qingqiong Realm."

"Little Cao, I have never seen a disciple as talented as you in the hundreds of years I have been in the Spirit Beast Sect. In the future, the Blue Sky Realm may be led by you, and you may even be able to repel the demons."

Cao Rui said softly: "Beast Ancestor, you are joking. There are so many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Qingqiong Realm. It is not my turn to step forward."

The Beast Ancestor just smiled faintly and did not continue the topic with Cao Rui. "I have seen your strength today. So, I can leave the Spirit Beast Sect to you without any worries."

"Before I die, I will give you one last gift."

The Beast Ancestor opened his mouth and spit out his demon pill. The demon pill emitted its last ray of light and transformed into a black dragon shadow, which swept into Zixiao's body.

Zixiao's whole body shook, and a powerful demonic power instantly surged into his body, and his cultivation began to increase rapidly!

This is the demon pill inheritance of the Beast Ancestor!

A moment later, under the catalysis of the powerful energy within his body, Zixiao involuntarily transformed into a real dragon body that was a hundred feet long!

It turned out that Zixiao's strength had been greatly improved due to the infusion of demonic power from the Beast Ancestor before his death, and he was directly promoted to the fourth level!

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder rumbled, as if the whole world was shrouded in darkness.

And the rumbling thunder was the sign that the heavenly thunder calamity was about to come!

For human cultivators, they need to face the heavenly thunder tribulation when they advance to the golden elixir stage; and for the demon race, they also need to accept the test of heavenly thunder tribulation when they advance to the fourth stage.

The principle of heaven contained in this is very clear: Heaven does not want to see living beings become more powerful.

Only by passing the baptism of thunder tribulation can one prove that he is qualified to break through the bottleneck and move to a higher level.

Therefore, Zixiao must withstand the bombardment of this thunder tribulation before he can truly become a fourth-level demon!

“Thank you, Beast Ancestor!” Cao Rui bowed to the Beast Ancestor.

The Beast Ancestor smiled slightly, slowly closed his eyes, and his body gradually dissipated into nothingness.

This is the fate of the demon pill inheritance. Not an inch of the body will be left after death.

Cao Rui stood quietly there, watching the body of the Beast Ancestor disappear before his eyes. Everyone in the Spirit Beast Sect will always remember the Beast Ancestor in their hearts.

The thunder tribulation was still brewing in the sky. Zixiao was nervous facing the threat of thunder tribulation, and was sad about the death of the Beast Ancestor. He was extremely excited, and his hundred-foot dragon body kept rising and falling in the clouds.

The cultivators from the Spirit Beast Sect who were rushing to various places could also see this scene clearly.

Although the Beast Ancestor is dead, the Spirit Beast Sect has a real dragon again! !

In the sky, the clouds suddenly split apart, and purple lightning was swirling and brewing, and could fall at any time!

"Go away, Cao Rui, or you will also be affected by the thunder tribulation!"

"Don't worry, Zixiao has the blood of a true dragon. A mere golden elixir thunder tribulation won't be a problem for him!" Baby Tianji flashed to Cao Rui and reminded him.

Cao Rui also activated the Zerg wings and flashed away from the main peak area.

Baby Tianji followed on one side.

"I really admire that dragon." Baby Tianji sighed, somewhat regretting his previous disrespect to the Beast Ancestor.

Cao Rui did not respond to him, his eyes fixed on the sky.

Cao Ru looked at the anxious Zi Xiao and said with his spiritual consciousness: "Zi Xiao, calm down, believe in yourself, and work hard to survive the thunder tribulation and advance to the fourth level. Let's go together to kill the guy who caused the deadly beast ancestor."

Upon hearing Cao Rui's telepathic message, Zixiao's hundred-foot-long dragon body shook slightly.

"Got it, Dad."

Perhaps it was because he inherited part of the Beast Ancestor's memory when he accepted the demon pill inheritance from the Beast Ancestor. Coupled with the Beast Ancestor's selfless act, Zixiao clearly felt strong emotions for the first time. Zixiao obviously became much calmer.

Zixiao's hundred-foot-long dragon body circled up, and he roared at the purple lightning in the clouds, no longer afraid!

At this moment! Boom! A loud earth-shattering sound suddenly rang out in the sky, followed by a purple lightning bolt several feet in diameter that fell down!

In an instant, the entire world seemed to be illuminated, and purple lightning with unparalleled power struck straight towards Zixiao!

Roar! A dragon roar resounded through the sky, and Zixiao faced the purple lightning without fear.

The moment it came into contact with the purple lightning, its dragon body shook violently, but then returned to calm.

Purple lightning raged on it, making crackling sounds, but it could not cause any substantial damage to it.

Finally, with Zixiao's roar, the purple lightning was shattered by it!

The strength of the true dragon's body is fully revealed at this moment, which is amazing.

After facing the thunder tribulation head-on, Zixiao's eyes flashed with excitement, and his original instinctive fear of the thunder tribulation had completely dissipated.

However, new purple thunder was brewing in the clouds.

These purple thunders were thicker and more dazzling than the previous ones. They rolled in the clouds and seemed like they would fall again at any time.

It happened in an instant, boom boom boom!

Without stopping, he struck down eight purple thunders!

Each one is thicker than the last!

After the last bolt of thunder fell, Zixiao's true dragon body also became weak.

However, the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate, and the sky was blue and the day returned.

Zixiao successfully survived this thunder tribulation and officially became a fourth-level true dragon demon cultivator.

His body shrank and turned into a little dragon about a meter long, and he excitedly flew into Cao Rui's arms.

"Dad! I succeeded!" This time, he opened and closed his mouth and spoke directly.

After being promoted to the Golden Elixir stage, the transverse bone stuck in his throat was also refined, and he was finally able to speak!
