Chapter 1084: Chapter 678: Eye of Heavenly Tribulation, Illusion Realm Tempering the Heart (Part 2)
But when they saw the formation of a third tribulation cloud, they couldn’t help but be shocked once more.
Because this third tribulation cloud was even more strange.
It was a gigantic eye.
The pupil was pitch black, revealing no emotion, indifferent to everything.
As if it truly was the eye of the heavens suddenly opening, surveying all living things.
The Primordial Spirit Great Powers just looked at the eye formed by the tribulation cloud and couldn’t help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Everything before them was too bizarre, completely beyond their understanding.
At this moment, the Primordial Spirit Great Powers of both races stopped thinking about why such a change had occurred, as it was meaningless.
They knew that only after this strange heavenly tribulation ended would they have a chance to understand everything.
"The soul tribulation of the Great Dao Primordial Spirit Tribulation, the tribulation cloud it condenses... is actually an eye?"
Lu Qing was greatly surprised, especially being stared at by the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation, he felt a strange sensation in his heart.
It seemed like this eye truly belonged to some unfathomable existence.
Lu Qing was not afraid, instead, he looked up and made eye contact with it.
He even activated his superpower to observe it, trying to see if he could uncover the origins of the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation.
However, Lu Qing observed for a while, but before the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation revealed any information, the strange eye blinked, and a tribulation thunder had already struck down.
The eye tribulation cloud had already brewed the first tribulation cloud, which has now descended.
And that tribulation thunder was formless and shapeless, its power could be felt but its form could not be seen, equally bizarre.
The target of the tribulation thunder was clear; it was heading straight for Lu Qing’s forehead acupoint.
Similarly, his physical body defense was ineffective, and even the defense of the five Spiritual Pearls had no effect.
This formless tribulation thunder directly struck the Divine Soul Talisman condensed by Lu Qing with Divine Soul Power, and the wave quickly spread, encompassing all of Lu Qing’s heart and spirit!
The next moment, Lu Qing felt a blur before his eyes, and when he reappeared, he was already in a strange environment.
All around him were endless flames, wanting to engulf him and completely refine him.
"Is this an illusion realm?"
Looking at the flames around him, despite how real they seemed, with their heat and the burning sensation felt in the Divine Soul being identical to reality,
Lu Qing still instantly recognized that he was currently within an illusion realm.
After all, possessing the Divine Skill of [Mistaken], he was inherently a master of illusion techniques.
He could still tell whether what lay before him was an illusion realm.
"Interesting, so this soul tribulation is using various illusion realms to temper my heart and spirit?"
Lu Qing immediately understood.
Then his heart and spirit trembled slightly: "Break!"
As his Divine Soul shook, the scene before him, like an Infinite Purgatory, also shook violently.
Finally, it twisted, deformed, and completely shattered.
And Lu Qing’s heart and spirit also reconnected with his physical body, returning to reality.
However, after the illusion realm shattered, those flames did not extinguish but turned into formless energy, merging into Lu Qing’s forehead acupoint and the Divine Soul Talisman.
Immediately, Lu Qing felt a peculiar change occurring in his forehead acupoint.
The Divine Soul Talisman also started to emit an aura of vitality.
"So this is how it is; this so-called soul tribulation, uses formless tribulation thunder to drag my heart and spirit into various illusion realms for tempering.
If I can break the illusion realm, the tribulation thunder turns into nourishment, refining and nurturing my Divine Soul, strengthening its essence.
If I can’t break it, I will forever sink into the illusion realm until my heart and spirit are obliterated."
Sensing the changes inside his body, Lu Qing finally gained a clear understanding of the soul tribulation of this third tribulation.
What this soul tribulation did was not so different from when he used the Divine Skill of [Mistaken] to trap enemies within illusions.
It’s just that the illusion realm created by the heavenly tribulation was more grand.
But for Lu Qing, it was not a problem.
Having already crossed two tribulations, his strength had already surged.
Especially after the Shattered Pill condensed the Primordial Spirit, his Divine Soul Power underwent a transformation.
Plus, he had mastery of illusion techniques through the Divine Skill of [Mistaken].
Perhaps, for the upcoming soul tribulation, he will overcome it more easily than the previous ones.
The events that followed proved Lu Qing’s feelings to be correct.
Each tribulation thunder from the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation that descended dragged him into various illusion realms.
Some placed him amidst beauties and fairies, making him the master of a grand harem.
Others made him command countless soldiers, becoming a supreme emperor of his time.
Some made him the leader of the Righteous within the Human Race, holding sway over the Righteous powers of the Heavenly Origin Great World.
Some morphed into vengeful spirits of those who died by his hand, demanding his life back.
And others showed the tragic deaths of Little Yan and his master, crying out to him.
So these illusion realms varied and were endless in scope.
There was even a realm that let him pass the tribulation of ascension, becoming an immortal.
But without exception, these illusion realms were broken by Lu Qing one by one, absorbing all the tribulation thunder’s energy.
Bam!
As another illusion realm shattered like glass, a vast amount of tribulation thunder energy was absorbed by Lu Qing.
His heart and spirit became increasingly clear, and the Divine Soul Talisman within his forehead acupoint emitted a faint golden glow, seemingly on the verge of undergoing some fundamental transformation.
"Only one tribulation thunder remains; I wonder what the final illusion realm will be?"
While absorbing the tribulation thunder’s energy, Lu Qing pondered.
To be honest, the illusion realms created by this soul tribulation, although possessing great power and achieving a state of almost indistinguishable from reality,
they still possessed an obvious sense of discord to him, unable to sway his true innermost self.
Thus, although the later illusion realms grew increasingly more formidable, his speed in breaking through them did not slow in the least.
His true heart remained steadfast, never wavering.
Lu Qing quietly awaited, and not long after, the ninth tribulation thunder finally finished brewing and thundered down.
The formless tribulation thunder directly descended into Lu Qing’s forehead acupoint, dragging his heart and spirit into yet another illusion realm.
"Ah Qing, Ah Qing!"
When Lu Qing opened his eyes, he heard someone calling him.
The voice was extremely familiar, causing his heart and spirit to tremble.
Before he could turn his head, he already felt himself being embraced in a warm hug.
That voice, overcome with joy, sobbed, "Ah Qing, you’re finally awake. Mom thought you were really going to leave me and your dad like this."
Feeling that long-missed, yet familiar, presence, Lu Qing’s tense body suddenly relaxed.
He gently smiled, "Mom, I’m back."
Then he looked at the somewhat weathered figure to the side and softly said, "Dad, I’m back."
"It’s good that you’re awake, it’s good."
Usually stern, Mr. Lu then couldn’t help but wipe his eyes and kept saying.
After a while, when the emotions of the two elders calmed down a bit,
Lu Qing finally asked, "Dad, Mom, what’s happened to me?"
At this time, Lu Qing could already notice that he was lying on a white bed, with an intravenous drip on his hand.
Judging by the surroundings, he should be in a hospital.
His body also felt completely empty, all mana, primordial spirit, magical treasures, talismans, everything was gone.
As if everything he experienced in the cultivation world was nothing but a dream.
"Ah Qing, don’t you remember anything?"
"Hmm, my memories are a bit blurry."
"Half a month ago, when you were coming home from work, you passed by a road and saw an out-of-control car heading towards a pair of playing children by the roadside. You pushed the two children away, but ended up being hit in the head by the car yourself, losing consciousness on the spot.
The doctors initially said you wouldn’t wake up, but your mom didn’t believe it and came to call you every day. Now she finally called you back to consciousness.
Do you not remember any of this?"
Mr. Lu recounted the events bit by bit.
Lu Qing thought for a moment, feeling the memories continuously emerging in his mind, and nodded slightly, "It seems like something like that happened."
"Not remembering isn’t bad. Now that you’re awake, don’t think about those things anymore. Resting and getting your body back to health is what matters now."
"Hmm."
Lu Qing nodded gently.
Seeing his parents smile, he also smiled.
"Interesting, weaving memories directly into my mind."
