I can gather experience beads

Situ Ling's breakthrough to the Spirit Transformation Realm was actually a risky attempt on his part in a desperate situation.

However, he faced two serious problems: first, he was cursed, which made his condition far from the best; second, the Qingqiong Realm was now short of resources, and the treasures he could use to resist the heavenly calamity were very limited.

As Situ Ling from the Canglan Immortal Sect, owning several fourth-tier spiritual weapons was already extremely wealthy. Many Nascent Soul cultivators found it difficult to even piece together a single spiritual weapon.

Not to mention the higher level magic weapons such as spiritual treasures and innate spiritual treasures above spiritual weapons.

The thunder tribulation is the punishment from heaven to the cultivators. When the cultivators are going through the thunder tribulation, they can only find ways to defend themselves and must not attack with their supernatural powers.

Once the counterattack causes the wrath of Heaven, the power of the thunder tribulation will increase exponentially.

Previously, Cao Rui had used thunder tribulation to temper his body, but he was already on the edge of danger.

If anyone dares to use his supernatural powers to try to defeat the thunder tribulation, he will undoubtedly be on the road to destruction.

This is a painful lesson learned by countless senior monks with their blood.

Faced with such a terrifying thunder tribulation, one can only defend with all his strength. As a result, the power of his magical powers will naturally be greatly reduced.

Although Situ Ling possessed many powerful spiritual weapons, his magical powers were still lacking.

The first fourteen thunder tribulations have passed, and only the last four thunder tribulations remain.

As long as he can successfully survive these four thunder tribulations, he will be able to break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop and become a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage. From then on, he will step into the pinnacle of the world of immortal cultivation and even ascend to the spiritual world.

However, these last four thunder tribulations were like an insurmountable chasm that blocked his way forward.

The spiritual weapon was exhausted, and the magic power was simply unable to withstand the next stronger thunder tribulation. Situ Ling ultimately failed to survive the tribulation and turned into ashes under the thunder tribulation...

......

Cao Rui also didn't know how to appease the two Canglan Immortal Sect monks in front of him.

In the end, he could only set up a beam of light and leave.

Cao Rui returned to the gate of the Spirit Beast Sect and came to the cabin in front of the Lingtan.

Zixiao flew out, sensed Cao Rui's mood, and gently landed beside Cao Rui to accompany him.

"Dad, how long can you live?" Zixiao asked stupidly.

Apparently, he learned about the curse on Cao Rui from Tianji baby.

Cao Rui slapped Zixiao on the head and scolded him with a smile: "Your father is going to ascend to the spirit world. You will have to come to the spirit world to find me in the future. How long can you live......"

Zi Xiao chuckled: "Oh! Dad doesn't have to die anymore, that's great!"

"Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely follow in your footsteps and ascend to the spirit world with you in the future!"

Cao Rui nodded slightly.

The fact that Situ Ling failed to get promoted today and died in a thunder tribulation shocked him a little, but it also gave him a lot of inspiration and thought.

He began to seriously consider what preparations he should make next to deal with the thunder tribulation he would face when he was promoted in the future.

First of all, judging from the current resource situation in the Qingqiong Realm, it has become impossible to collect all five elements of spiritual swords.

Therefore, he needed to find other ways to improve his ability to defend against natural disasters.

First, he realized that he had to collect some defensive magical powers that could resist thunder as soon as possible.

Currently, most of his magical powers are offensive, but he has no defensive powers.

Now that the monks in the Qingqiong Realm are at their most united, it is not difficult to find a few ancient magical powers specifically for fighting against thunder.

While there are still high-level cultivators alive, he can also use the Pure World's network and his own influence to collect and practice these magical powers.

As time goes by, Cao Rui, Jingshi Tianzun and other high-level monks will disappear and fall one after another, and the Jingshi organization will eventually become just a legendary symbol.

In addition to the above two points, he also needs to find a way to continue searching for the treasures of the Vajra Glass Body himself, and make sure to cultivate the Vajra Glass Body to the peak realm of the Nascent Soul.

After all, this is his most powerful defense against thunder tribulations.

In addition, he also planned to try whether he could refine the Tianji Fortress into a post-natal spiritual treasure. The Tianji Fortress had fulfilled its destiny after resolving the demon crisis and the disbanding of the Pure World.

This is also the only treasure in his hand that may be refined into a spiritual treasure that can contend with thunder tribulations.

Finally, he summed up the three major things to do next: collect defensive magical powers, cultivate the Vajra Glass Body to the peak of the Nascent Soul, and refine the Tianji Fortress into a spiritual treasure.

As for increasing mana to reach the threshold for promotion, this is actually the easiest thing.

Over the past six months, in addition to providing alchemy reserves for the Spirit Beast Sect, Tianji Baby, and Zixiao, Cao Rui also tried to directly use high-level spirit stones for cultivation.

After some experiments, he came to a conclusion: although it was a bit of a waste to give the more than 60,000 high-level spirit stones on him to the experience beads to devour, doing so could force the experience points to be filled up.

"It seems that this is the only way." Cao Rui sighed helplessly.

He knew this method was not the best option, but it was the most effective one for now.

After all, it is not easy to find a way to quickly improve your strength without wasting.

If it were to happen normally, he would only need two hundred years to fill up the experience beads with his innate five elements spiritual roots.

But now that I'm cursed, I have to waste some of it.

"Next, I need to collect some defensive magical powers that can target lightning, and then practice these magical powers while collecting the treasures needed for the last layer of the Vajra Glazed Body."

The plan was set, and Cao Rui immediately activated the teleportation array and prepared to go to Baicheng, Huazhou.

Nowadays, most of the high-level monks who are cursed are gathered in Hundred Cities.

As the teleportation array's light flickered, Cao Rui disappeared from the spot.

......

The news that Situ Ling failed in his attempt to advance to the Divine Transformation stage and died was like a bombshell, which quickly caused an uproar in the circle of high-level cultivators in the Qingqiong Realm.

This incident attracted widespread attention because it represented that even the most powerful of the high-ranking monks who were plagued by the curse were ultimately unable to break free of this terrible curse.

This news was like a heavy dark cloud, hanging over the hearts of all the high-level monks who were suffering from the curse.

People began to realize that even a powerful half-step god-transformation warrior like Situ Ling was powerless in the face of the curse.

This undoubtedly dealt a huge blow to other high-ranking monks who were also suffering from the curse.

They had hoped to find a solution, but now it seems that all their efforts will be in vain.

In Jinzhou, an elderly Nascent Soul cultivator felt extremely heavy-hearted upon hearing the news.

He was already near the end of his life, and the double blow of the erosion of the curse power and the psychological pressure was too much for him to bear.

Finally, this Nascent Soul cultivator passed away under multiple blows.

This was the first case of a Nascent Soul cultivator dying due to the curse, which undoubtedly cast a shadow on the entire situation.

Every once in a while, a group of cursed monks would gather in a small courtyard in Baicheng, Huazhou, Cao Rui, to discuss how to deal with this terrifying curse power.

However, every gathering ended in disappointment.

Despite everyone's concerted efforts, they still could not find an effective way to break the curse.

They searched for clues everywhere and tried various possible methods, but the curse still eroded their souls mercilessly.

The daily shrinking range of spiritual awareness seems to indicate the declining lifespan of the monks.

Although the grassroots cultivators in the Qingqiong Immortal Realm did not know about the curse, they could feel the changes in the market.

The prices of spiritual medicines and treasures, which were already scarce, have skyrocketed and are difficult to buy.

This abnormal situation attracted the attention of many people, and some people speculated whether something big had happened.

However, most people do not know the truth, and only a few high-level monks understand the reason.

These monks are very tight-lipped and dare not reveal secrets easily.

But there is no wall that is impenetrable. More than half a year after the final battle, news about the blue hole curse gradually spread.

At first, people didn't believe the rumor. After all, the curse sounded too bizarre.

But as time went on, more and more famous monks who participated in the final battle began to die young.

When those monks who had participated in the final battle died one after another, the entire Qingqiong Realm's grassroots cultivation community fell into panic.

When the crowd was excited, some middle-level monks with ulterior motives began to make their own plans.

It is predictable with the naked eye that with the demise of high-level cultivators, the strength of all parties in the world of immortal cultivation will undergo a major reshuffle.

The best opportunity to seize power this time fell on these mid-level monks.

On the surface, the immortal cultivation world of Qingqiong Realm is enjoying the fruits of victory and the rapid development brought about by the changes.

But an undercurrent has quietly surged. After all the high-level cultivators have fallen, who will be the next sect, organization or individual to dominate the Qingqiong Realm?

......

in this way.

Five years have gone by in a blink of an eye.

All the Jindan monks who participated in the final battle have died due to the curse and the destruction of their souls.

More than ten Nascent Soul cultivators also died.
