Primordial Qi

An unknown distance away from the Qingming Sect, Gu Qingxue brought Gu Chenyu through a teleportation array and arrived at the open sea 100,000 miles away. The two appeared on an uninhabited island. The calamity cloud had been chasing them all the way and also came here.

"You are the first person in history to form a pill and transcend the tribulation." Gu Qingxue joked. Forming a pill could not bring about punishment from Heaven. Gu Chenyu might have unknowingly walked a path that was unacceptable to Heaven.

Gu Chenyu gave a bitter smile, he had never thought it would be like this. He was just condensing the golden elixir, why would he attract such a thunder tribulation.

"Prepare well. If that doesn't work, I will summon the Tongtian Mirror to help you."

Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Chenyu worriedly, then slowly left. The more people there were during the tribulation, the stronger the tribulation would be. The thunder tribulation above her head was about to take shape, so Gu Qingxue had to leave.

"Come on, let me feel the power of the thunder tribulation."

The inner elixir condensed, and the elixir in the dantian took shape, reflecting each other within his body.

Boom! The first thunderbolt came down. It was a purple thunderbolt. The first strike knocked Gu Chenyu down from the sky, singeing his hair.

"Ahem, what kind of thunder tribulation is this? Purple Heavenly Divine Thunder? It doesn't look like it."

Before he could react, the second thunderbolt arrived, this time smashing Gu Chenyu's clothes into pieces, leaving only a piece covering his lower body.

"So fast? It's as fast as lightning." Blood flowed from the corner of Gu Chenyu's mouth. This thunder tribulation had damaged his internal organs.

"Gu Chenyu, a cultivator of the human race, has come here to form an elixir, hoping that heaven and earth will send down a thunderstorm to prove my Dao heart."

Gu Chenyu's loud voice resounded through the sky, and the third thunder tribulation fell instantly.

This time Gu Chenyu was not stunned, but used all his spiritual power to resist.

"As cultivators, why should we fear the test of thunder?" Gu Chenyu shouted loudly and withstood the thunder.

"Please, Heaven, send down a thunder tribulation." Gu Chenyu roared. The thunderclouds had not yet dissipated, so he naturally knew that he would have to endure many thunder tribulations.

Boom, boom, boom.

Three thunder tribulations struck directly, leaving large areas of Gu Chenyu's body charred, and he even spat out a mouthful of blood. This thunder tribulation did not seem like a test, but an attempt to take his life.

"It's the Sixth Path, why hasn't this calamity cloud dissipated yet?" Gu Chenyu was confused. The purple thunder calamity retreated and turned into gray thunder.

"Is it divine punishment? How could this be?" Gu Qingxue's eyes were filled with panic. How could this bring about divine punishment? This would only result from the destruction of something that shouldn't exist.

"Gu Chenyu, retreat quickly."

Gu Qingxue shouted loudly. She wanted to go forward to help, but was blocked by a gentle force. It was the Tongtian Mirror that took action.

"That is the calamity he deserves. If you go, you will only make him fail completely, or even die directly." Tongtian Jing said. He showed up when the divine punishment appeared and hurriedly stopped Gu Qingxue from going to help. He thought that the thunder calamity was brought by himself, but when he saw that it was brought by that boy, he felt relieved.

"He is just in the Jindan stage, how could he incur divine punishment?" Gu Qingxue asked puzzled.

"It has nothing to do with him. It's the soul in his body." Tongtian Jing explained helplessly, "Perhaps, after the soul is wiped out, he will be fine."

"How is that possible? It looks like she's going to take him with her." Gu Qingxue's eyes were anxious, and she could only stare blankly.

The immortal in Gu Chenyu's body has revived. She woke up after being struck by lightning several times. She sighed in her heart that she would never be tolerated by this world.

"Let me out, you're coming for me." Xian's face showed sadness. She could not escape death after all, and she didn't want to take Gu Chenyu with her to die.

“What nonsense are you talking about? It’s clearly coming towards me. I have the Five Elements Holy Body, the best physique throughout history. Before this, my spiritual roots were not obvious. Perhaps I still had the Chaos Holy Body that jumped out of the Five Elements and was not in the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It’s obvious that the Heaven will not tolerate me.” Gu Chenyu smiled. The thunder tribulation between heaven and earth was still brewing, but he was not afraid.

“Hahaha, my inner elixir is complete. The Grandmaster level can’t resist this thunder tribulation, so I will combine the three elixirs into one and become a Venerable. Maybe I can resist a little.”

Gu Chenyu's bold laughter echoed here. He felt something coming out of his body, going down the esophagus from his throat, and finally coming out of his mouth.

It was actually his inner elixir, spiritual elixir, and a golden soul elixir flying out from between his eyebrows.

"Give it to me!"

There was madness in Gu Chenyu's eyes. He wanted to kill himself with just a thunder tribulation. That was too good to be true.

"Even if I'm not the protagonist, I'm still a war correspondent. I haven't seen enough of this world. How can I die so easily?"

The three pills merged into one, suspended in the air and running at a high speed, then slowly merged into one. The inner pill and the spiritual pill merged into a five-colored five-element spiritual pill, surrounded by platinum and gold energy. The soul pill had not yet completely merged, but the thunder tribulation had already arrived.

The gray-white lightning struck Gu Chenyu's dantian. The severe pain almost made him fall down. The lightning struck Gu Chenyu's inner elixir, causing it to shake violently.

"Take your Divine Punishment Condensation Pill, why would I be afraid of it?"

The thunder tribulation did not destroy his inner elixir, but seemed to help temper it, and the inner elixir was gradually becoming one.

The interior is colorful, the exterior is golden, and it is surrounded by platinum and gold gases, with grayish-white gas flowing even further out.

What's going on here?

Gu Chenyu showed a strange look on his face. This thunder tribulation was helping him to form the elixir.

"If I don't die, if heaven needs me in the future, I will go there." Gu Chenyu said sincerely.

The lightning struck again, and Gu Chenyu resisted desperately, and actually allowed the power to merge into one, condensing into a golden elixir.

The last thunderbolt slowly took the shape of a human figure, majestic and holy. He looked at Gu Chenyu expressionlessly, and his fingers slowly fell.

The Tongtian Mirror flew out from Gu Qingxue's Dantian as if in disbelief, as if confirming something. Then, with a trembling voice, it uttered two words: "Emperor."

Gu Chenyu seemed to have come to a new world, where the starry sky was twinkling, the stars were like dust, and all things were insignificant. He could feel countless living beings, and it seemed as if he could hear whispers in his ears, which were the prayers of countless living beings.

"Where is this? It's so strange."

When the last thunderbolt struck, Gu Chenyu lost consciousness and fell from the sky. His body had already been burned black by the thunderbolt. He was severely damaged by the thunderbolt and his body was probably useless.

Without the inner elixir, Gu Chenyu lost all his cultivation. He stood up tremblingly, the severe pain made him cry. When the tears touched the wound, it caused another burst of excruciating pain.

"Failed?"

Gu Chenyu half-knelt on the ground unwillingly and spat out a mouthful of blood. Seeing his miserable appearance, Gu Qingxue's eyes were filled with tears. How could he attract such a thunder tribulation that destroyed his cultivation?

The calamity clouds gradually dissipated, Gu Chenyu closed his eyes and fell to the ground. He suddenly felt his body lighten, as if he was floating into the air.

"Am I dead? Just like before, my body became lighter and my soul escaped into reincarnation."

After losing his last bit of consciousness, his body slowly flew into the air. A golden light shone behind the calamity cloud, and a golden elixir slowly flew towards him.

Gu Chenyu opened his eyes tiredly. He felt a gentle force nourishing his body. Then he opened his mouth, and the golden pill slowly returned to his dantian.

The burnt skin on the surface faded away, revealing baby-like skin. When the wind blew, Gu Chenyu floated naked in the air.

He felt infinite power, resonating with heaven and earth. All the spiritual energy within a hundred miles gathered towards Gu Chenyu. He slowly opened his eyes, with golden light shining in his eyes. He seemed to be able to see the scenery a hundred miles away. As the golden light in his eyes faded, he also lost this wonderful feeling.

"This infinite power seems to connect heaven and earth. Turning your hand makes clouds, and turning your hand again makes rain. When you raise your hand, heaven and earth lose their color."

Gu Chenyu felt the changes in his body. He closed his eyes and roamed freely between heaven and earth. This power made him intoxicated and he didn't want to wake up. He roared at the sky, as if he was venting something.

"When I swallow a golden elixir, I realize that my fate is not up to fate."

An incomparable sense of ambition arose in Gu Chenyu's heart. He slowly opened his eyes and felt the mysteries of the world.
