Chapter 754: Void Returning Tribulation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At this moment.

Within the quiet chamber where Jiang Chengxuan resided, waves of energy began to surge.

Flames, blue light, golden radiance, raging waves, and the earth itself manifested in various phenomena appearing behind him.

Jiang Chengxuan could distinctly feel his Primordial Spirit ascending, growing from its original size to become much larger.

A shadowy figure, identical to him, was gradually taking form behind him, growing taller and larger, almost reaching the ceiling of the cultivation chamber.

It was then that Jiang Chengxuan took out a bottle of greenish-blue spiritual liquid.

This was the Primordial Spirit Heavenly Dew, extremely beneficial for strengthening the Primordial Spirit and condensing the Dharma Form, and a precious resource for breaking through to Void Returning.

It was one of the items given to him by his Shifu, Qin Shenwu, through his senior brother Zhao Tianfan.

Upon opening the bottle, Jiang Chengxuan drank the dew.

Buzz!

Immediately after ingesting it, the Dharma Form formed by his Primordial Spirit began to solidify rapidly.

Terrifying auras started emanating from him, and five columns of light, each a different color, rose from the Dharma Form, breaking through the chamber and the cave abode, reaching the skies above Cloud Mist Peak.

There was a swish.

In an instant, endless elemental forces poured down from above Cloud Mist

Peak, nourishing the spiritual plants on the mountain.

Those with elemental properties grew wildly.

Inside the chamber, Jiang Chengxuan, who was attempting to breakthrough, felt his Dharmic power accumulating to a peak.

A sense of premonition told him that his tribulations were about to descend, causing his eyes, previously closed, to suddenly open.

In that moment, his gaze, filled with a five-colored brilliance, flashed briefly.

At the same time.

Simultaneously, a sense of restlessness suddenly rose from the depths of his heart, making him alert.

“My Three Tribulations are coming!” he thought to himself.

BOOM!

At this moment, a flame that existed between the tangible and intangible suddenly rose from the depths of Jiang Chengxuan’s heart.

This was the first tribulation of breaking through to Void Returning, the fire tribulation.

It originated from the depths of the cultivator’s heart, sweeping through their Primordial Spirit and entire body.

Failure to pass this tribulation would result in the cultivator being completely consumed by the flames.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

At this instant, Jiang Chengxuan was enveloped in blazing flames, with waves of heat filling the entire cultivation chamber.

The temperature inside the chamber skyrocketed to thousands of degrees.

However, peculiarly, aside from Jiang Chengxuan, the rest of the chamber remained unaffected by the flames, even as the temperature continued to rise, the chamber itself remained unharmed.

Buzz!

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s body and the Dharma Form formed by his Primordial Spirit both conjured a Five Elements aureola.

The flames on his body paused briefly upon contacting the aureola before directly leaping into it.

“Could it be that all treasures and divine powers truly have little effect in overcoming tribulations?”

Jiang Chengxuan’s pupils slightly narrowed.

He already knew that relying on external forces to pass Void Returning tribulations was nearly impossible.

Whether it’s the fire, water, or wind tribulations, they all originated from oneself.

Their power also stemmed from oneself.

Attempting to use external forces to overcome these tribulations was essentially like trying to counter oneself with one’s own resources, which was futile.

So.

The only way to surpass these tribulations was to rely on oneself, on one’s own strength and understanding of the Dao.

BOOM!

At this moment, the flames on Jiang Chengxuan became even more intense, burning in his eyes, ears, and nose, and even his Dharma Form behind him turned entirely into a figure of fire.

The pain originating from the Primordial Spirit was so intense that even someone with Jiang Chengxuan’s willpower couldn’t help but frown deeply.

Indeed.

The fire tribulation of Void Returning was not easily overcome.

However, to think this alone could consume me was far from sufficient.

Buzz!

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s will solidified like steel, with invisible energy swirling and rising around him.

BOOM!

Like meteorites colliding with stars, the flames burning on Jiang Chengxuan were suddenly quelled by an invisible force.

It could be clearly seen that the flames were extinguishing and disappearing at a visible rate.

After a while.

With the disappearance of a cooling sensation, all flames on Jiang Chengxuan were extinguished.

However, before he could catch his breath, numerous droplets of water appeared on the Dharma Form formed by his Primordial Spirit, bringing a dizzying, suffocating sensation to his mind.

“This is the water tribulation!”

Jiang Chengxuan realized immediately.

Unlike the explosive nature of the fire tribulation, the water tribulation led to a state of stupor, as if being submerged in suffocating waters, gradually losing vitality.

It was the longest-lasting of the three tribulations in the Void Returning Tribulation.

Fortunately, with Jiang Chengxuan’s foundation, the power that could hypnotize him and even lead to loss wasn’t a real threat to him.

On the contrary, he could use the water tribulation as an opportunity to strengthen his Primordial Spirit and body.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

A few months later.

Jiang Chengxuan’s essence, Qi, and spirit seemed to be rejuvenated.

Every pore and hair on his body seemed to glow.

A powerful aura emanated from him, evaporating the droplets on his body and Primordial Spirit in an instant.

Splash!

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

His Dharmic power became stronger, and his Primordial Spirit became more agile.

However, at this moment, an invisible wind rose beneath Jiang Chengxuan.

The wind, appearing in shades of green and black, carried a force capable of dissolving flesh, bones, and souls.

This was the final tribulation that one had to experience when breaking through to Void Returning, the Wind Tribulation.

This wind was the same as fire and water. It could not be blocked with ordinary Dharma treasures and divine powers.

Everything had to rely on the cultivator’s own strength.
