"Would the master like to open the Newbie Gift Pack?"
The voice of Little Star came again.
"Open it!"
Ren Changsheng hurriedly said.
"Congratulations to the master for obtaining a Low-Grade Spirit Sword*1, Great Mighty Sky Dragon Technique*1, Out-of-Body Experience Card*1, and Low-Grade Spirit Stone*100."
Little Star's voice continued to rise.
At this moment, on Ren Changsheng's panel, behind the backpack, three more items appeared.
"Come out!"
Muttering to himself, the three items appeared in front of Ren Changsheng.
The Spirit Sword glittered with golden light, translucent as glass, and was engraved with layers of patterns, clearly not a mundane object.
As for the Great Mighty Sky Dragon Technique and the Out-of-Body Experience Card, they looked much more ordinary—a jade slip and an ancient rune.
"Is this the Cultivation Technique?"
Looking at the jade slip, a heat rose in Ren Changsheng's eyes, and after a while, he opened it.
"Great Mighty Sky Dragon!"
A thunderous voice suddenly resonated in Ren Changsheng's mind, and he felt his spirit tremble, as if an ancient dragon that spanned thousands of miles roared in the void.
Outside, layers of Spiritual Energy around Ren Changsheng seemed to be called by something as they autonomously converged towards him.
Ren Changsheng's presence became ethereal.
At the same time.
In the great hall of the Ren Family Fortress.
"Family Head, Changsheng has offended Tantai Fairy; that is a capital offense. The Heavenly Moon Fairyland is the number one sect in Nanling County, immensely powerful. In my opinion, we might as well send Changsheng to the Fairyland and let the Fairy do as she pleases!"
An old man in the hall spoke with imposing might.
"Third Elder is right. Changsheng brought this upon himself. We cannot let our Ren Family Fortress bear the burden!"
"Our Ren Family Fortress cannot be ruined because of this failure. I suggest that we execute Ren Changsheng immediately and send his head to Heavenly Moon Fairyland to ask for forgiveness."
"This is a good suggestion, Fourth Elder truly has the best interests of our Ren Family Fortress at heart. We strongly agree!"
...
One after another, figures stood up to echo the sentiment.
At the head seat sat a middle-aged man.
This man was Ren Yuzhan, the head of Ren Family Fortress, and also the one with the highest cultivation. Ren Yuzhan had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, just one step away from condensing a Golden Core and becoming a true Immortal!
On the continent of Hongyun, there are nine realms of cultivation: Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Out-of-Body, Divided Spirit, Union, Tribulation Passing, and Mahayana.
The path of true cultivation is incredibly arduous, and every step is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Having a Foundation Establishment Cultivator is already quite an achievement for the Ren Family Fortress.
In Nanling County City, the Ren Family Fortress ranks highly because a Foundation Establishment Cultivator already has a lifespan of three hundred years and is viewed as no different from an Immortal in the eyes of ordinary people.
"I will deal with this matter!"
The Family Head looked at a group of elders with a somber expression. He knew exactly what they meant—they wished for his son's death.
"Family Head..."
"Family Head!"
...
The people below became tense at once.
"Dismissed!"
With a cold shout, the man turned and left.
Below, the crowd dispersed one after another, but the eyes of the Third Elder flickered with a cold glint.
In the small courtyard.
"Buzz buzz!"
Layers of Spiritual Energy enveloped Ren Changsheng's body. From a distance, he appeared like an Immortal in the clouds, profound and unfathomable.
At this moment, the aura on Ren Changsheng's body also began to grow.
Qi Cultivation second layer.
Qi Cultivation third layer.
Qi Cultivation fourth layer.
...
Time slowly passed by.
A night went by in a flash.
Early in the morning, the Spiritual Energy around Ren Changsheng was so dense that it seemed about to condense into Spiritual Liquid. At this moment, Ren Changsheng's cultivation level had reached the pinnacle of the fifteenth level of Qi Cultivation.
Indeed, Ren Changsheng's cultivation level had reached the peak of the fifteenth Qi Cultivation layer.
And at this moment, Ren Changsheng had not yet awakened.
Countless streams of Spiritual Energy continued to converge towards Ren Changsheng, and his aura continued to rise.
"Boom!"
Inside Ren Changsheng's body, his aura surged out, his Qi Cultivation perfection level successfully breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. But this was not the end.
Foundation Establishment first layer.
Foundation Establishment second layer.
Foundation Establishment third layer.
...
His cultivation level kept growing. At some point, above the Ren family compound, a layer of dark clouds blanketed the sky.
"What's happening? Why do I have this oppressive feeling, as if some danger is approaching?"
"I feel it too. The danger seems to come from the clouds!"
"What's going on?"
...
Inside the Ren family compound, countless disciples looked at the sky in astonishment. Not just these disciples, but even Ren Yuzhan and a group of Elders also wore extremely grave expressions.
"This is the heavenly tribulation. Who among the Ren family is condensing a Golden Core, proving the Dao of a true Immortal!"
The third Elder swallowed nervously.
"Who is it?"
Everyone's eyes flickered continuously. Within the Ren family, there were only a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and the only ones who had reached the perfect Foundation Establishment were Ren Yuzhan and the third Elder.
Who could it be, undergoing tribulation in the Ren family?
"Give the order, all disciples of the Ren family, evacuate the Ren family compound!"
Ren Yuzhan commanded in a cold voice.
"Yes, understood!"
Shadows swiftly descended to carry out the command, and in a short while, the disciples of the Ren family began to evacuate from the compound.
"Boom!"
Just as the Ren family disciples had just finished evacuating, a sudden thunderous boom resounded.
In the void, flashes of lightning and thunder rolled.
At the same time, Ren Changsheng, who was cultivating in the small courtyard, felt his heart tremble, sensing an incredibly dangerous aura coming from the heavens and earth. This aura, so mighty and supreme, didn't allow for any thoughts of resistance to arise.
Ren Changsheng immediately woke up from his cultivation.
"What's happening?"
Ren Changsheng's heart raced. Inside his body, waves of powerful energy surged. He felt that with a single flick, he could send a cow flying. It was too strong.
"Xiaoxing, what's going on?"
Ren Changsheng hurriedly asked.
"Congratulations, Master. You have cultivated for one day and received the cultivation feedback of ten thousand days. Your current cultivation level has already reached the perfect Foundation Establishment Realm. Just now, that was the minor three tribulations that one must undergo while condensing the Golden Core!"
Xiaoxing's voice transmitted.
Foundation Establishment perfection in just one day?
Ren Changsheng took a deep breath. From his memories, it would take others decades to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Realm. Yet, he had achieved it in just one day, reaching even the perfection of that realm.
"It's the minor tribulations!"
Ren Changsheng instantly understood in his heart that the process of true cultivation was against the natural order.
Throughout the path of cultivation, there are three major tribulations in total: from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, from leaving one's Nascent Soul to dividing the spirit, and lastly, from crossing the tribulation to Mahayana. Only after completing these three tribulations, can one ascend and become an Immortal.
"Stop first!"
Ren Changsheng hurriedly halted the cultivation technique.
He was not playing a game right now, and he didn't have any life-saving magic artifacts in his hands. If he were to face the tribulation now, he would surely be blasted to smithereens by the heavenly tribulation. Ren Changsheng did not wish to die just after arriving.
"Boom boom..."
Several thunderous roars resounded, but after a short while, the pressure gradually dissipated.
On the panel, Ren Changsheng's cultivation level stopped at the perfect Foundation Establishment.
"Huff huff huff..."
Ren Changsheng heaved a sigh of relief.
That was close to a breakthrough!
