My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 1370 - 494: Tribulation
Ten Thousand Demon Country, Qingqiu, Spirit Venerate Mountain.
Standing at the peak, Chen Sansi suddenly sensed a mysterious fluctuation from the sky.
He looked cautiously and saw a faint golden light emerging from behind the thick clouds, growing brighter and finally tearing through the heavens and crashing onto the giant rock ahead.
"Clang——"
Accompanied by a crisp sword cry, the golden light gradually dispersed, revealing its true form—a flying sword with a pale gold body and a silver-white blade.
"What is this?"
Chen Sansi found it familiar and stepped forward: "The rusted sword from the courtyard at the foot of Qingxu Sect?"
"It's called 'Taia.'"
Li Guanfu explained: "It seems Mu Chutai acquired it from a secret realm years ago. It's said to be a sword left by immortals from the upper realm, with an extremely high grade."
"Taia..."
Chen Sansi had no interest in admiring the sword's craftsmanship: "The master's sword appearing here indicates..."
"Yes."
Li Guanfu sighed: "It suggests matters in Kunxu have likely come to a conclusion."
Chen Sansi remained silent.
"Young Daoist."
Li Guanfu stroked his beard: "It's about time for you to begin secluded meditation.
"Although cultivators from various realms have suffered significant losses and won't dare to come over temporarily, they might return at any moment, so it's prudent to seize the time.
"Behind you, in Spirit Venerate Mountain, within Old Fox Su's Cave Heaven Blessed Land, there's an ancient true spirit. With its help, you can easily break through the bottleneck during your spiritual breakthrough, but you'll need to carefully handle the heart demon tribulation followed by the heavenly tribulation.
"To overcome the heart demon tribulation, you must find the heart demon's manifestation within your heart demon illusion realm and slay it.
"As for the heavenly tribulation, no one can help you."
"I understand."
Chen Sansi stepped forward, gripped the Taia sword hilt with both hands, and discovered that although it seemed lightweight, it was incredibly heavy. He exerted all his power and could barely pull it out. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"Buzz!"
The Taia sword hummed, violent sword qi poured out uncontrollably.
Chen Sansi sensed that within Taia, there was a spiritual wisdom manipulating the sword qi to attack him.
Sword Spirit...
A cultivator's lifebound magical artifact, over time, would develop a trace of spiritual wisdom, and upon reaching a certain grade, it transforms into a sword spirit.
There clearly was a sword spirit within Taia.
This sword spirit evidently didn't submit to him.
Awkwardly, with Chen Sansi's current cultivation, he couldn't suppress it, so he had to temporarily store it in the storage bag.
He didn't delay further and returned to the cave mansion, then through the transmission array, entered the Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
In the mountain forest, the fog was thick like tangible curtains, layer upon layer, the sight only reaching ten meters, beyond which lay a chaotic gray and white obscuring all shapes and sounds.
Chen Sansi followed his memory forward until he arrived at a half-mountain pond.
In the clear pond, colorful koi swam back and forth. Under a peach tree, Jiang Xiyue, dressed in black, sat on the ground, holding a copy of "Mystical Insight Cave Profound Verse," slowly flipping through it page by page.
Presumably...
Senior Sister already knew the full story through the witch.
Unfortunately, they didn't manage to resolve the misunderstanding between the father and daughter in time at the last moment.
The Kunxu Saint Sect had pressed too hard.
"Senior Sister."
Understanding her character, Chen Sansi didn't say anything useless like "condolences," instead he said: "After this secluded meditation, I'll bring back our master's wife."
Jiang Xiyue remained silent, slowly stood up, stepped on frost, and flew to the other side of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land to calm her mind and begin her spiritual breakthrough.
Because the Cave Heaven Blessed Land wasn't big, the phenomena from both of their breakthroughs might conflict, so Chen Sansi didn't rush into cultivation but stood guarding for his senior sister.
Jiang Xiyue's breakthrough process was surprisingly smooth.
To be precise, her cultivation breakthrough was really supported by the surplus cultivation from the demon seed within her.
Therefore...
The entire tribulation process was also unusually smooth.
Almost without a hitch, she broke through to the Divinity Transformation Realm.
Jiang Xiyue floated in the air, nodded slightly to Chen Sansi, and then flew out of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land to guard outside for her junior brother.
"It's my turn."
During the days when she faced tribulation, Chen Sansi had adjusted his body and mind to the optimal state, and also refined the collected spiritual objects into elixir pills.
He sat cross-legged by the pond, swallowed the elixir pills, and started executing his cultivation technique.
Divinity Transformation.
Transforming to Immortal, Nascent Soul condensing spirit.
Upon reaching the Divinity Transformation stage, a cultivator truly transcends the realm of ordinary cultivators and can be rightly called "Immortal."
But for a Nascent Soul to transform into a Primordial Spirit, it must undergo cultivation to evolve, and the Dantian must also refine a wisp of True Yuan essence.
"Buzz——"
Inside the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, the vaporous mist condensed into tangible luminous liquid spirit dew, which was drawn by Chen Sansi to form a vortex, absorbed into his body like a whale swallowing the sea.
The mana within his body continuously washed over his Dantian, and with each circulation, it left behind a trace of refined pure mana.
Meanwhile, the Nascent Soul in his upper Dantian was evolving during the cultivation, both processes occurring simultaneously.
This is a long, grinding process.
The shortest is several years, the longest can be decades.
Immersed in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, Chen Sansi had long forgotten time, focused solely on internal transformations.
