Strongest Medical Saint

Now, inside Shen Feng's blood-red ring, there were over a million lower-grade spirit stones and more than six hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones—a sizeable amount indeed.

However.

At the moment, the energy within these cultivators' bodies had not been fully absorbed; he had simply taken out these million-plus spirit stones in advance, continuing to seize the energy that flowed into his body without distraction.

If it were anyone else, even someone with an unlimited absorption capacity, their bodies would definitely have burst from the energy under such frenzy. After all, breaking through in cultivation requires not just ample energy but, importantly, one's own comprehension.

This second point could be entirely ignored by Shen Feng; he only needed to achieve the first point.

As the energy continuously merged into his body, the aura emanating from him surged wildly once more; his clothes rustled fiercely, and lightning flashed within his eyes.

Above the Sea Transformation Stage lies the Tribulation Transcendence Stage!

The so-called Tribulation Transcendence Stage requires one to withstand the might of the Heavenly Tribulation in order to truly enter into Tribulation Transcendence.

Luckily, Shen Feng had experienced the Heavenly Tribulation of the Tribulation Transcendence Stage before. Even now, without the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation, he could still step into the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, which was almost without any impact on him.

In theory, with XY Building's concealment, the Heavenly Dao should absolutely not be able to sense Shen Feng's breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

Just now, when Shen Feng broke through to the Sea Transformation Stage, there was no reaction from the sky outside.

But at this moment, perhaps because Shen Feng was breaking through to the Tribulation Transcendence Stage with his Nine-Colored Dantian, an act too contrary to the heavens, the XY Building was unable to completely deceive the Heavenly Dao.

In the skies outside now, a terrifying might of the Heavenly Tribulation was condensing.

For a moment.

Cultivators in Flame Fallen City, and those from nearby forces, each left their houses; when they felt the power gathering between heaven and earth, their faces changed dramatically in an instant.

Even He Haichen, at the peak of the Immortal Sovereign stage, had an extremely grave expression. In his view, if the Heavenly Tribulation that was gathering in the sky were to take shape, he might not have a hundred percent confidence in withstanding it—what kind of mighty figure was breaking through nearby to cause such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation?

Many cultivators with lesser strength fled far away at the first opportunity; they did not wish to be collateral damage.

But after a good while.

Although the might of the Heavenly Tribulation had formed in the sky, like a great blade hanging over Flame Fallen City, this immensely terrifying Heavenly Tribulation had not fallen, as if it could not detect the exact location of the person breaking through.

In the astonished gaze of many bold cultivators, the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation in the sky which could have obliterated the entire Flame Fallen City, was gradually dissipating.

Many cultivators understood that fleeing would be futile; the Heavenly Tribulation usually formed very quickly, and given the current terror of the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky, they might not even escape a certain range before dying under it as it descended.

But now, the gathered Heavenly Tribulation was dispersing on its own; what was the explanation for this? Could it be that the person advancing their cultivation managed to deceive the Heavenly Dao with some trick?

Throughout history, there have been several powerful beings with such means!

...

Meanwhile.

Shen Feng was inside the XY Building.

The aura spilling out of his body had already surpassed the peak of Sea Transformation.

By now, he had fully stepped into the initial stage of Tribulation Transcendence, and the energy within the bodies of those cultivators had been completely drained.

He began to frantically draw the energy from the lower and mid-grade spirit stones.

Even though the energy was no longer that restored by the Black Dot, the Black Dot and the blood-red ring were still ceaselessly contesting with Shen Feng for the energy.

Tribulation Transcendence Middle Stage! Tribulation Transcendence Late Stage!

With the massive consumption of spirit stones, Shen Feng's cultivation was rising at an extremely fast pace. Normally, the Heavenly Tribulation would appear in the sky only when breaking through from the peak of Sea Transformation to the initial stage of Tribulation Transcendence, and breaking through within Tribulation Transcendence would not result in the Heavenly Tribulation forming.

Perhaps that was the reason! So when Shen Feng stepped out of the initial stage of Tribulation Transcendence, the terrifying Heavenly Tribulation that had been gathering in the sky outside dissipated on its own!

After breaking through to the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

In the Nine-Colored Dantian within Shen Feng's Dantian, faint lightning flashes began to appear. As he progressed through the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, the lightning within the Nine-Colored Dantian surged violently.

When his cultivation reached the peak of Tribulation Transcendence, the Nine-Colored Dantian within his Dantian was filled with terrifying lightning that contained destructive lightning energy!

However.

Shen Feng paid no attention to all this, as he earnestly absorbed the energy from the Spirit Stones. Any more laxity, and the Spiritual Energy flowing into his body would be seized by the black dot and the blood-red ring.

As the number of Lower Grade and Middle Grade Spirit Stones dwindled, the energy fused into his body continued to accumulate. He didn't need to concern himself with comprehension, his sole focus was frantically gathering energy.

At a certain moment.

The Nine-Colored Dantian within his body, filled with terrifying lightning energy, began to churn incessantly, compressing over and over!

Boom!

A brilliance thousands of times more dazzling than fireworks suddenly burst forth from within his Dantian.

Crack! Crack! Crack!...

Within his bones, a series of crisp sounds echoed.

Underneath his skin, energy was creeping about.

His entire aura erupted like an uncontrollable volcanic burst. His closed eyes suddenly shot open, and two sharp, heart-trembling beams of light flashed through them, as an endless stream of Spiritual Energy burst forth from his body like a torrential deluge.

At this moment, he was like a towering mountain of grandeur, commanding awe and worship!

Condensing Immortal Initial Stage!

After entering this level, the Nine-Colored Dantian within his Dantian, containing lightning energy, disappeared, replaced by a small spherical core.

This was a cultivator's Immortal Core!

An Immortal Core is formed only when one's cultivation enters the Condensing Immortal Stage, signifying that one has truly embarked on the path of cultivation.

After all, Condensing Immortal does contain the word "Immortal."

Incredibly, the Immortal Core within his Dantian had reached ten colors. On top of the previous nine colors, one more color, white, was added!

The Ten-Colored Immortal Core! The core that legends said no one could condense!

Of course, even a Nine-Colored or an Eight-Colored Immortal Core seems to have never appeared in the history of the Immortal Realm.

...

When Shen Feng successfully stepped into the Initial Stage of Condensing Immortal.

The skies outside had long changed, with storm clouds gathering. The breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Stage couldn't be completely concealed by XY Building, let alone this breakthrough to the Condensing Immortal Stage.

At present.

In the sky, aside from the gathering of world-destroying Heavenly Tribulation, there were also one hundred green, ethereal pillars standing erect.

This was known in the Immortal Realm as the Condensing Immortal Columns!

Such a celestial phenomenon would only occur for someone who had just broken through to the Condensing Immortal Stage, and the more Condensing Immortal Columns that appeared, the more extraordinary the cultivator.

In the long history of the Immortal Realm, there had at most been someone who formed fifty Condensing Immortal Columns!

What in the world were these one hundred Condensing Immortal Columns?

This kind of celestial phenomenon was almost visible throughout the Middle Realm, causing the Old Ancestors and Sect Masters of all major forces to drastically change their expressions. They immediately ordered the search for the cultivator who had broken through to the Initial Stage of Condensing Immortal today. Once found, they were to be brought back to the Sect immediately.

It could be said.

The entire Middle Realm was shaking at this moment because of Shen Feng's breakthrough!
