Chapter 6: Stellar True Fire

  The purple thunderbolt, like the Thunder God's great hammer, heavily smashed onto Qin Yu's body. Qin Yu's purple protective aura was destroyed in an instant, like fragile paper, and the lightning struck directly at Qin Yu's chest.

  Compared to withstanding the first thunder, this time Qin Yu's body had fully merged with the purple true energy, like a piece of purple jade, and his defensive power had also increased. The protective aura around him initially neutralized some of the lightning, but the second bolt of heavenly thunder was indeed more powerful.

  "It's all right~~~" Qin Yu's eyebrows slightly furrowed, a smell of roasted meat wafted over, and a wave of scorching heat spread from his skin. The power of the lightning had burned Qin Yu's skin, and even his muscles were slightly damaged.

  "Big brother." Xiao Hei saw the burn on Qin Yu's chest and couldn't help but tense up.

  "It's nothing, just a flesh wound." Qin Yu said casually.

  Xiao Hei let out a slight sigh, and then whispered carefully: "Big brother, this tribulation is not a trivial matter. You have a mid-grade spiritual artifact, don't you? If you don't use it, even if your body is strong, you will still get hurt."

  Qin Yu smiled slightly and said, "Just now was a bit careless, originally thought that the purple true energy and flesh merged, plus the protective aura could withstand it, didn't expect the second heavenly thunder's power to be even greater than my estimate."

  Qin Yu's mouth said, but in his body, the meteor tears produced a clear stream again, flowing through the damaged muscles, and a refreshing numbness came, some minor injuries on his body were instantly repaired, with this meteor tear, Qin Yu just dared to do so.

  "Big brother, your heavenly tribulation's power is even greater than mine, don't be too careless." Little Hei reminded from the side.

  Qin Yu smiled slightly, he also knew that Xiao Hei was concerned about him.

  As time passed, the purple tribulation clouds rolled more urgently, electric snakes constantly darted out, and the violent aura rampaged for dozens of miles around. The third heavenly thunder was being continuously accumulated, and the purple true energy in Qin Yu's body stirred once again.

  "Boom!"

  A purple dragon suddenly emerged from the dark clouds, charging straight at Qin Yu with a thunderous aura that was truly frightening and oppressive.

  "Haha~~~"

  Qin Yu burst out laughing, his eyes bursting with a fierce light as he stared straight at the descending purple heavenly thunder. At the same time, Qin Yu's right fist carried the power of a thousand kilograms, like a meteorite, rapidly and violently smashing towards the heavenly thunder.

  "Boom!"

  The two powers collided, causing the air to distort completely. Qin Yu's entire body sank into the ground a foot deep, but that second heavenly thunderbolt was actually shattered by Qin Yu's punch, turning into electric snakes that flashed on his body.

  Qin Yu's right hand, which was wearing the Flame Fist sleeve, was completely unscathed.

  "The third thunderclap, however, you will." Qin Yu said with a smile.

  With the Blazing Fist set, Qin Yu's fists were enough to easily deal with the third heavenly tribulation. It was worth noting that Feng Yuzi had only relied on a low-grade spiritual artifact to pass through four heavenly tribulations back then. With the Blazing Fist set, it was normal for Qin Yu to shatter the heavenly tribulation with one punch.

  "There is still a heavenly tribulation, once I pass it, I can cultivate the 'Stellar Transformation', and that would make me a true cultivator." Qin Yu looked up at the sky with his head held high, but in his heart, he was thinking about what would happen after he passed the heavenly tribulation. As soon as he thought of cultivating the 'Stellar Transformation', Qin Yu's heart felt a thrill of excitement.

  Dark clouds rolled, thunder rumbled, and then a purple lightning bolt began to flash continuously in the dark clouds. Suddenly, at the edge of the mountain forest, several green fire wolves poked their heads out, but were immediately swept away by a sharp black gaze, and the green fire wolves quickly retreated back into the forest.

  "That pack of Azure Wolves really wants to be exterminated." Qin Yu glanced over without a care, then looked up at Jie Yun. A purple lightning bolt suddenly burst out from Jie Yun.

  "Boom!"

  A fierce gust of wind howled, and a purple lightning bolt zigzagged and flashed, as if a purple dragon had descended from the sky, striking directly at Qin Yu. This was the final heavenly thunderbolt. If he could withstand this one, Qin Yu would become a true cultivator.

  "Give me a break!"

  Qin Yu burst out laughing, his entire body's muscles suddenly tensing up, his fists carrying the momentum of splitting mountains, like two massive meteorites, fiercely smashing towards Tian Lei. The flames on his fist wraps were also emitting a dark red glow.

  "Boom!" A deafening thunderous sound, the lightning was completely dispersed under the attack of Zhongpin Lingqi's Yan Wei Quan fist, and the electric snake flashed.

  Head-on collision!

  Qin Yu's entire body was as if it had been smashed by an iron hammer, with half of his body sinking into the ground. Qin Yu violently shook his head, and the intense collision from just now made even him feel a numbness in his fists, a sweetness in his mouth, and a surge of fresh blood to his throat.

  "Pong!" Qin Yu slapped the ground with one hand and suddenly sprang out.

  Xiao Hei's cheerful voice echoed in Qin Yu's mind: "Big brother, how was the counter-shock force of Tian Lei just now?"

  "Whatever." Qin Yu forcibly swallowed the mouthful of blood again, but in his heart he was cursing, "Mistake, this fourth heavenly thunder's impact is much stronger than the third one. The recoil not only made my arms numb, but also caused my internal blood to boil."

  Little Black flapped its wings and flew to Qin Yu's side in an instant, chirping happily. It also gently patted Qin Yu's back with its wings, congratulating him.

  "Big brother, congratulations on passing the 49th day of calamity too." Xiao Hei was very happy for Qin Yu.

  "Well, Xiao Hei, you cultivate on your own for now. I'm going to go into seclusion and focus on cultivating the 'Stellar Transformation'. This 'Stellar Transformation' has six major realms, but ironically, the initial Star Cloud realm is actually the most difficult to cultivate." Qin Yu said to Xiao Hei.

  Qin Yu had read the "Stellar Transformations" manual, which also contained Lei Wei's narration. Qin Yu naturally understood the difficulties of cultivating during the Stellar Stage.

  Xiao Hei's eagle head nodded, and his spiritual sense transmitted a message: "Big brother can rest assured to cultivate, when cultivation is successful, I will compare with big brother who is more powerful." Qin Yu heard this and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Good, after I successfully cultivate, I must compare with you."

  Then, Qin Yu entered the Lei Shan residence.

  This time Qin Yu passed the 49-day tribulation with ease.

  Generally, when crossing the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, if one has a low-grade spiritual artifact, the success rate is greatly increased. If one has a mid-grade spiritual artifact, there is almost no danger at all. The reason why only one in a hundred people on the Profound Dragon Continent successfully cross the tribulation is because they do not have a mid-grade spiritual artifact.

  That Qin De had obtained a mid-grade spiritual artifact, even if he was ambushed by Ge Min and suffered severe injuries, in the end still successfully passed the tribulation, can see the importance of this mid-grade spiritual artifact.

  ——————

  In the martial arts hall, on the silver floor in the center, Qin Yu sat cross-legged, recalling segments of the Stellar Transformation Incantation in his mind.

  From a child then, he cultivated until now, he can finally rely on the "Star Change" to enter the world of cultivators, cultivators, which will represent Qin Yu's entry into a new level, a new world, and in the future, the objects of exchange and struggle are all flying and escaping cultivators.

  Suddenly——

  "Master, the original master of Lei Wei once instructed that if you want to formally cultivate 'Stellar Transformation', it's better to watch a segment of the image first and then cultivate, it will be easier to succeed." A small cat suddenly appeared in mid-air, speaking human language to Qin Yu.

  "Huh? Image, what image did Master leave behind?" Qin Yu opened his eyes, secretly wondering in his heart. Since he had accepted the "Stellar Transformation" technique, he had already considered Lei Wei as his master. Qin Yu nodded and said: "Xiao Xing, let me take a look."

  "Meow~~"

  Xiao Xing flicked her cat tail and instantly disappeared.

  The entire wall and floor of the martial arts hall also became transparent and illusory, revealing images of the universe. The entire martial arts hall seemed like a cosmic space, with distant stars burning, nearby lifeless planets floating, and dark starry skies.

  Suddenly——

  The images around the martial arts hall changed suddenly, and those cosmic stars disappeared. In front of Qin Yu, a huge nebula appeared.

  This nebula drifts through the universe like a huge cloud, slowly rotating and absorbing energy from the universe, condensing into individual particles. These particles, after who-knows-how-many years, slowly gather towards the center of rotation...

  As various variations accumulated, a planet slowly took shape.

  ……

  Cosmic evolution, everything is in front of Qin Yu's eyes.

  Qin Yu gradually became immersed in these images, and at the same time recalled the various cultivation secrets of "Stellar Transformations". His heart had a slight epiphany, and he didn't know how long it took for the image to finally form into a massive star, emitting scorching flames with astonishing energy.

  Qin Yu suddenly remembered that Feng Yuzi had told him about the war of the group of immortals, and his master Lei Weidu's words after failing to pass the 99th tribulation.

  "Across the vast expanse of the universe, experiencing the evolution of the cosmos. Drifting for thousands of years, traversing countless star systems, but today my soul will disperse, heaven won't help me, the change in the stars, is the setting sun really the end? Alas, alas! Everyone on this continent listen up, today I pass down the 'Tongtian' three diagrams, when someone obtains these three diagrams and comprehends their secrets, they shall inherit my kung fu legacy. Haha... fortune and calamity..."

  Qin Yu suddenly understood what Lei Wei had been thinking at the time.

  Lei Wei was originally capable of passing the 99th Tribulation, but before crossing the tribulation, he was attacked by several scattered immortals, great masters in the Mahayana period, and masters in the Tribulation period and the Void period. With so many people attacking together, Lei Wei was already seriously injured, how could he withstand the 99th Tribulation again?

  So Lei Wei naturally felt resentful and heaven did not help him.

  "The Starlight Transformation" technique has an extremely powerful effect, and even before crossing the tribulation, it can kill off high-level cultivators in the Great Completion stage, scattered immortals, and numerous people in the Tribulation and Void stages. After killing so many people, it can still withstand the first eight of the 99 Heavy Tribulations, its strength is self-evident.

  The power of "Stellar Transformation" can be imagined, but it is different from all other cultivation methods in the Cultivation Realm. Once cultivated, Qin Yu must create a new realm afterwards. If he fails to do so, his own soul will scatter and he will go mad.

  Qin Yu suddenly stood up and burst out laughing: "Good fortune? Bad fortune? Haha~~~~ Good and bad fortune are intertwined, what's the point of worrying about it so much. If one spends their whole life being timid and shrinking back, just following the established routine and cultivating according to the predecessors' methods is too boring. Master, you created the first six great realms, let me Qin Yu create the later realms. Even if I were to go crazy and my soul disperses, what of it? Let's just say I'm paving the way for future disciples."

  Qin Yu's heart was filled with a heroic spirit at this moment.

  "Alright, let's start cultivating now!"

  Qin Yu calmed his emotions and sat down cross-legged to carefully cultivate the "Stellar Transformation".

  The first realm of "Stellar Transformation" —— Nebula Stage.

  According to the secret method, Qin Yu began to mobilize the purple liquid flow in his body. After 49 days of tribulation, these purple true energies completely turned into a liquid state. With Qin Yu's control, the purple water droplets in every part of his body began to gather together.

  First gather, gather in the dan Tian inside.

  With his mind fully immersed, he could feel the infinite vastness of this dantian. Qin Yu had never seen anyone else's dantian and didn't know what differences there were between his own dantian and those of others. He didn't care about that either, directly controlling them.

  The elixir field is like the universe, boundless and infinite. "Hoo-hoo" The liquid true energy seems to flow in the elixir field like a stream of water, and then begins to gather, forming a ball of water. If you are cultivating the Golden Elixir, it can be cultivated like this.

  However, Qin Yu was cultivating wasn't the Golden Elixir!

  "First gather, then scatter!" Qin Yu's mind clearly remembered the cultivation method. Just as he was about to disperse according to the trajectory, suddenly—

  A very special force suddenly appeared in the dantian, as if it were centrifugal force, rotating outward in all directions. The 'water ball' was naturally affected, and the entire 'water ball' was directly shattered by the strange 'centrifugal force', dispersing in all directions.

  Qin Yu's body suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and his face turned pale in an instant.

  "Not good!"

  Qin Yu never thought that at this critical moment, his strange dantian would make such a mistake. It must be known that the most important thing when entering the 'Star Cloud Stage' is to 'scatter', how to scatter and how to perfectly open up, it's very important, absolutely cannot go wrong.

  The stars revolve, following the natural way of the universe. At first, Lei Wei also meditated for a long time before coming up with the method of "dispersal".

  "When I was young, I cultivated my inner strength, and this dantian was like this, dispersing all my internal energy. Now it's like this again." Qin Yu was anxious, but he wasn't worried that his purple liquid-like true qi would be lost, even if it escaped from the dantian, these purple liquid-like true qi were still under Qin Yu's control and merged into various parts of his body.

  But...

  How can he control the trajectory of forming a nebula when this purple liquid true energy is affected by the 'centrifugal force' in the strange Dan Tian?

  "Cultivating internal energy is not successful, now cultivating 'Stellar Transformation' is also unsuccessful. This strange dantian is really...” Qin Yu's heart was anxious, those purple liquid-like true energies had dispersed and turned into a misty state, leaving Qin Yu's dantian, some even bursting out of his body."
