Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 621 - 285: Feng Lingling’s Mixed Feelings, Special Celestial Tribulation
Lin Xuankong, who had some doubts in his heart, couldn’t help but ask, "The information I found in the Ten Thousand Laws Pavilion of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect is mainly about the types of Celestial Tribulations and the different methods to deal with them. However, those classics didn’t record that the time for Cultivators to undergo Crossing the Tribulation can be vastly different! Is it true that when the Sect Founder of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect underwent his Celestial Tribulation, it took a whole Hour?"
The Great Crane Ancestor nodded and said, "Most of the records in our Sect’s classics describe how ordinary Cultivators undergo Crossing the Celestial Tribulation. After all, even though our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect has a large number of disciples in every generation, the Celestial Tribulations they encounter are mostly ordinary ones. However, the Gangfeng Tribulation encountered by the Sect Founder of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect is one of the twelve great catastrophes. Normal Celestial Tribulations don’t involve the Wind of Annihilation at all! These twelve great catastrophes, such as the Wind of Annihilation, Weak Life Water, Eternal Earth, and True Transformation Fire, are considered a nightmare for every Tribulation Crosser. Generally speaking, very few Cultivators can survive these twelve great catastrophes. Our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect’s Sect Founder, at that time, had obtained an Initial Tier Immortal Artifact and a First-grade Immortal Artifact. He also received a Glazed Purification Bottle from a Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism. Even with these, he almost perished in that Celestial Tribulation! As for the duration of Crossing the Celestial Tribulation, normal Celestial Tribulations don’t last long. Most of them are like the Celestial Tribulation Little Bodhisattva Yikong of the Spirit Platform Buddhism experienced, which Tributor Mu once witnessed. As long as a Cultivator is sufficiently powerful to endure for a short period, roughly the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they can quell the Celestial Tribulation and complete their body tempering!"
Hearing this, Lin Xuankong was shocked. Among the various Treasures he prepared for Crossing the Tribulation, the vast number of Immortal Artifacts were naturally the most important. However, the Glazed Purification Bottle given to him by Galin Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism was also one of his crucial Treasures for Crossing the Tribulation. After all, the Glazed Purification Bottle is a powerful Buddhist Spiritual Treasure that can significantly reduce the Celestial Tribulation’s power and increase the chances of success. It was personally consecrated and blessed by the Great Success Yu Zhen Bodhisattva of the Spirit Platform Buddhism!
At this moment, the Little Crane Ancestor chimed in, "Actually, according to the various Celestial Tribulations I have seen, the twelve great catastrophes encountered by the Sect Founder of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Ancestor Li, are not the longest-lasting ones!"
Lin Xuankong was somewhat surprised. "Enduring that strong and deadly Wind of Annihilation for an Hour isn’t the longest duration?"
The Little Crane Ancestor blinked seriously and said, "Of course not! I’ve heard some secrets. They say that among the various Celestial Tribulations encountered by Cultivators in our Immortal Realm, the twelve great catastrophes lasting an Hour are only considered slightly long. The truly long-lasting twelve types of terrifying Celestial Tribulations are called the twelve great sufferings! Those twelve great sufferings, although their attacks are similar to those of ordinary Celestial Tribulations—like the one Little Bodhisattva Yikong encountered—can last for twenty-eight days!"
"Twenty-eight days???" Lin Xuankong’s eyebrow twitched sharply. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
He had seen with his own eyes the Celestial Tribulation encountered by Little Bodhisattva Yikong of the Spirit Platform Buddhism. At that time, the overwhelming Celestial Tribulation Clouds almost made the entire Spiritual Crane Immortal City seem like it was the end of the world! The Celestial Thunder bolts struck by those Celestial Tribulation Clouds grew thicker and more powerful, their numbers constantly multiplying over time.
If the twelve great sufferings described by the Little Crane Ancestor last for twenty-eight days, how many Celestial Thunder strikes would the Tribulation Crosser have to face? Moreover, as time wore on, the Celestial Thunder would grow thicker, its power stronger, and its quantity ever greater. Ultimately, how dense and overwhelmingly powerful would those Celestial Thunder strikes become? This is no Crossing the Tribulation! If one is not adequately prepared, without enough Immortal Artifacts, and without powerful Treasures like the Glazed Purification Bottle, being struck by Celestial Thunder for twenty-eight days straight... even a person forged from Profound Iron Stone would be struck into molten iron!
Thinking of this, a faint sense of crisis crept into Lin Xuankong’s heart. I wonder what kind of Celestial Tribulation my Sixth Celestial Vein, at tenth-level Perfection, will encounter. If I were to face those twelve great sufferings and be struck for twenty-eight days, I would indeed be extremely unlucky!
However, when he thought about the mountain-like pile of Initial Tier Immortal Artifacts in his Ghost Frog Pouch, those heaps of Fourth-Grade and Above Immortal Artifacts, the Glazed Purification Bottle in his bosom, and the massive amount of True Qi his Life Plate could store, the faint sense of crisis in Lin Xuankong’s heart gradually dissipated. If preparations as thorough as mine, surpassing every Earth Immortal and every Immortal Sect’s quantity of Immortal Artifacts, various Treasures, and abilities, couldn’t overcome the Celestial Tribulation, then no one in this Immortal Realm could likely survive the twelve great sufferings the Little Crane Ancestor described!
With this thought, a surge of boldness gradually rose in Lin Xuankong’s heart, and his gaze became increasingly resolute.
Seeing the changing expressions on Lin Xuankong’s face, the Little Crane Ancestor thought for a moment and continued, "However, Tributor Mu, you need not worry too much. The twelve great catastrophes encountered by the Sect Founder of our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Ancestor Li, are not so easily encountered. I have lived for tens of thousands of years and have only seen it once! As for the twelve great sufferings I mentioned from legends and secrets, those only appeared occasionally, two or three hundred thousand years ago, when the Immortal Yuan in the Immortal Realm was incredibly abundant!"
