Chapter 202 Breakthrough
In the Tianyun Continent, it is never easy for a martial artist to break through to the Grandmaster realm. The process is fraught with danger, and only one in ten thousand can successfully succeed.
If you manage to get through, everything will be fine. If you fail, not only will your cultivation level stagnate, but you may also suffer mental and physical damage, regressing by several levels.
As for the situation during the breakthrough process, it is commonplace for a single mistake to lead to qi deviation or even death.
Therefore, every martial artist holds this in awe.
Although it was a ceremony to observe, the guests were not given seats.
They need to form a circle ten feet away from the person attempting the challenge, ready to face any unexpected changes.
Sheng Chunshui was sitting quietly on an open space in the center of the training ground, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was regulating his breathing and cultivating his energy.
A foot in front of him was a small jade box containing the Crossing-the-Calamity Pill made by Xiao Chong.
Seeing that Sheng Chunshui was ready and the guests who had come to watch the ceremony were all in their places, Sheng Xueyan walked gently to Sheng Chunshui's side and said solemnly, "Uncle, everyone has arrived. If you have nothing else to say, we can begin."
"Ah."
Upon hearing the sound, Sheng Chunshui opened his eyes, glanced around the arena, and slowly nodded.
The jade box in front of him was gently opened, and a pill the size of a longan lay quietly inside. The guests watching the ceremony all turned their attention to the pill, not blinking for a moment.
The fiery red pill was densely covered with ancient patterns, which flowed gently as if they had come to life.
The pill emitted a strong, exotic fragrance that instantly filled the vast training ground, invigorating everyone who smelled it.
"Is this the Tribulation-Crossing Pill, specially prepared for Grandmasters and said to greatly increase the chances of breaking through to the next level?"
"This kind of pill is obviously extraordinary, but I wonder if it really has such a good effect."
"If City Lord Sheng can successfully break through to the Grandmaster realm this time, then we must find Master Xiao to get one of them, no matter what, even if it means going bankrupt!"
Upon seeing the quality of the Du'e Dan, the guests present had different thoughts, but they all held their breath and no one dared to utter a sound.
The breakthrough for a Grandmaster-level martial artist is extremely dangerous and not to be taken lightly. They were afraid of disturbing Sheng Chunshui. If Sheng Chunshui failed to break through and, in his emotional turmoil, blamed himself for the failure, he would be in deep trouble.
"Today's breakthrough is my long-cherished wish. I will do everything in my power. Life and death, success or failure, all depend on this!" Sheng Chunshui suddenly shouted, his voice as loud as a bell, deafening.
However, amidst the expectant gazes of the guests, he did not swallow the fiery red pill.
No one understood his meaning, but only Sheng Chunshui knew his own plans.
Although the Crossing Calamity Pill is good, it is, after all, a newly refined pill. It is best not to take it before it has undergone extensive testing.
Sheng Chunshui wanted to test whether he could pass the test smoothly with his own cultivation level. He was unwilling to use the Tribulation-Crossing Pill unless absolutely necessary.
Although no one understood what was going on, they all watched intently, because many people would never witness a breakthrough to the Grandmaster level in their entire lives.
As Sheng Chunshui roared, his master aura surged forth, instantly reaching its peak.
Snapped……
A series of sharp tearing sounds rang out, and Sheng Chunshui's upper garments burst open, revealing his bare upper body covered in bronze-colored muscles.
These muscles throbbed violently, as if they were about to spring up at any moment, and a continuous "crackling" sound came from his body.
Clearly, he was channeling his own energy to impact the various acupoints within his body.
In just a few breaths, the primordial energy of heaven and earth surged forth, rushing towards Sheng Chunshui like a tidal wave.
These vital energies were so dense that they condensed into streams of vital energy visible to the naked eye, almost as if they had become tangible.
"The power of a grandmaster is indeed unfathomable!"
Seeing such a strange phenomenon in the world, the onlookers were secretly amazed.
But what surprised them even more was what followed. The energy flow swirled around Sheng Chunshui, growing increasingly rapid and intense, until it finally formed a massive vortex centered on Sheng Chunshui.
At first, the vortex of vital energy was small, only surrounding Sheng Chunshui within a few feet. But then the area it covered grew larger and larger.
One zhang, two zhang... five zhang, six zhang... ten zhang...
Those watching the ceremony quickly retreated, fearing they might be drawn into the vortex of energy.
After expanding to fifteen zhang (approximately 33 meters), the vortex of primordial energy finally stopped expanding. However, although it stopped expanding, the changes did not stop, but began to increase in height.
Five zhang... ten zhang... fifteen zhang...
In the blink of an eye, the vortex of primordial energy rose dozens of feet into the air, as if it had entered the clouds in the sky.
Long...
To everyone's astonishment, the clouds in the sky churned, and faint sounds of thunder could be heard emanating from behind them.
Everyone's eyes showed utter horror.
The reason for this is that the aura of the person attempting the breakthrough is too powerful, causing the primordial energy in the world to become disordered, thus forming thunderclouds.
"Damn it! It's just a martial artist breaking through a realm, why is there a tribulation of lightning? It's like a cultivator is about to ascend to heaven!"
Hearing the thunderous sound, Xiao Chong was also greatly surprised.
He had never heard of such a thing before and didn't know the reason behind it. He even thought that the legendary calamity of the forty-nine days had occurred.
boom!
Another clear clap of thunder rang out, the clouds churned, and a thin bolt of lightning flew out from within, disappearing into Sheng Chunshui's body along the channel formed by the vortex of primordial energy.
Snapped!Snapped!Snapped……
Sheng Chunshui let out a pained scream that was unlike anything in human form. His skin exploded from head to toe, and the blood that gushed out formed a red mist around him.
"It's over! A grandmaster has fallen just like that!"
Those watching the ceremony closed their eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.
In their minds, Sheng Chunshui was destined to die from an explosion!
Just then, Sheng Chunshui let out another hiss and spread his five fingers, making a grasping motion towards the ground. The fiery red Crossing-the-Calamity Pill in the jade box flew into his mouth with a blur.
"Any changes?"
Not hearing the expected explosion, the guests opened their eyes again, peeking with a hint of doubt, and saw Sheng Chunshui swallow the pill.
To everyone's astonishment, the ruptured skin on Sheng Chunshui's body began to heal rapidly.
It explodes, then heals! It explodes again, then heals again...
Gradually, the sound of the explosions subsided, eventually failing to keep up with the speed of healing.
Once his injuries were fully healed, Sheng Chunshui's eyes shone brightly, and he raised his hand to the sky, resembling a majestic and awe-inspiring god.
"Collect it from me!"
A loud shout came from Sheng Chunshui's mouth.
The vortex of primordial energy, tens of feet high, swiftly entered Sheng Chunshui's body like a docile kitten, and the thunder in the sky finally disappeared.
To everyone's astonishment, Sheng Chunshui's joints cracked and popped, and his height increased by more than three inches at a visible speed.
"It's done! Hahahaha..."
Sheng Chunshui burst into laughter, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the martial arts arena. Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had been stabbed by an invisible blade.
A grandmaster has emerged out of nowhere!
