Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 1894 Dao Lightnings

4 more lightning bolts struck Alex, but he continued cultivating the entire time, not even flinching as the lightning bolt began wounding him more greatly than he had thought it would.

Despite the charred body, Alex remained cultivating, using only bits of his Qi to heal his wound in time for the next tribulation of lightning.

By the time someone completed their Lightning Tribulation, they would have less than a fourth of their Qi, if that, and would have been wounded or tired to a point where it could affect the remainder of the breakthrough.

By the time Alex had completed his Lightning Tribulation, he had a Dantian full of the highest grade Qi he could have, a body that had entered the Immortal realm, and Blood Aura and Sword Intent that were no longer suppressed in any fashion.

“Damn show off,” Bai Jingshen said with a smirk on his face.

“I’m assuming you told him to use his body to take the lightning bolts,” Scarlet asked.

“I told him to do it for the first few ones. I didn’t expect him to do it throughout the entire Lightning Tribulation. His healing physique is truly something.”

“That it is.”

Alex stopped cultivating and stood up from where he was sitting. Now that his Lightning Tribulation was over, he had successfully passed the hurdle that he needed to pass where he could choose to give up halfway through, not that he was going to do so.

He was also at the level where the lightning bolts wouldn’t aid him at all. Surviving any of the incoming lightning bolts would do nothing whatsoever to compress his Qi or improve his body in any way.

The Dao Lightnings were just a means to test him if he deserved to know these Dao. He was basically paying a toll for having learned them.

And what a steep toll it was.

Alex stared at the sky as an aura began gathering in the sky. Now that it was the time for Dao Lightning, he needed to be far more careful.

Alex decided to test the strength of the first lightning bolt, to see where the starting strength would be. He used the Jade Skin technique and put on a Blood Armor underneath in preparation.

Then the Dao lightning fell.

Even before it fell, Alex could tell which Dao the lightning bolt was for. He could feel the aura of the Dao of Plant Growth that only he could recognize.

When the Dao lightning for that dao fell, Alex took it head-on, doing nothing else to protect himself.

Alex felt the brunt of the force and was pushed to the ground. However, when the lightning bolt disappeared, he was unhurt. He quickly stood back on his feet and looked toward the sky while his mind churned with thoughts.

‘That was barely any strong,’ Alex thought. If he had to compare it, it was about the same strength as what the Dragon Emperor had produced during their fight nearly 70 years ago now.

‘So… that was a strength equal to Immortal Ascendance 1st realm,’ Alex thought. ‘And it is going to get stronger now.’

How much stronger was it going to be? Alex could only guess.

Alex felt the aura gather in the sky and saw what it was for. To his surprise, it was the Dao of Water that he felt in the sky. He hadn’t expected it to come this early at all.

But then, there wasn’t much that could come before this. It was either the Dao of Water or the Dao of Earth, and it seemed the heavens decided it was Water first.

The Dao Lightning fell from the sky and Alex quickly struck it back, destroying the falling lightning bolt he was somewhat surprised at how easily he did it.

All this time, he had been bearing the attacks without any retaliation. And now that he had, he was surprised to see that his Qi was stronger than the lightning bolt.

The Dao Lightning for Dao of Earth fell next, and was destroyed just as easily. Alex smiled, but he could sense the lightning bolts becoming stronger.

They still needed some time to reach his level of strength, but as for how long that would take, Alex was not sure. He hoped he could go the entire tribulation without having to deal with strong attacks.

The next Dao Lightning fell, and it carried with it the Dao of Yin to it.

Alex brought out Midnight and fought off the lightning bolt, destroying it before it could even reach the ground. At the rate the tribulation was going, Alex was certain about one thing.

The amount of Qi in his body was never going to be a problem. He had always been worried about the lack of Qi being the worst thing for his breakthrough, but that wasclearlynot the problem now.

Another Dao Lightning gathered in the sky and fell. Dao of Yang. It seemed Heaven was intent on going through his elemental Daos first.

Alex fought off the Dao of Yang as well, destroying it easily. However, the ease of destroying the lightning bolt was becoming harder to maintain. The lightning bolts were getting stronger and would soon reach his strength.

“The heavens are adapting to his strength,” Bai Jingshen said softly. “How cruel.”

“Normally, the Dao lightning would rarely even reach the strength of Immortal Ascendance 2nd realm for someone trying to breakthrough. And yet, for him the Dao lightning’s strength had already reached Immortal Ascendance 6th realm,” Scarlet said. “If this continues, he is going to be in deep trouble.”

“I’m afraid it is going to continue,” Bai Jingshen said. “And because the latter Daos are stronger, the increment of their strength is going to be anything but linear, I fear.”

The Dao Lightning for Dao of Techniques fell next, and then the Dao of Blood Aura.

Alex defeated them both relatively easily, but by the end of it, he was beginning to see that he was going to have a hard time soon enough. The strength of the Dao Lightning that came next was very close to hisownstrength.

The next Dao was the Dao of Seven Elemental Interaction. It was an upgrade Alex had to his Dao of Five Elemental Interaction, something he was capable of doing after having learned both Dao of Yin and Yang.

The Dao Lightning fell from the sky and Alex struck back with Midnight, sending out a simple fiery attack.

The two attacks clashed and destroyed each other with Alex being the victor, but by a small margin.

‘Shit!’ Alex thought. At the rate of improvement the Dao lightning was going, the next lightning bolt was going to be just as strong as his Qi was. Then, it would become far stronger.

And unfortunately, there were still 5 more Dao Lightnings to go. By the end of it all, Alex would have to fight tooth and nail to get through this ordeal.

He took a deep breath and got ready for the next lightning bolt.

The aura of the Dao of Teleportation gathered in the sky high above. And then, it struck down as a lightning bolt.
