Rebirth of the Urban Demon Lord

Chapter 35 The Calamity of Pills Descends

Chapter Thirty-Five: The Calamity of Elixir Descends

Zhuo Yang frowned: "Again!"

Little Diao nodded, then quickly ran back to the pile of sacks and carried back another huge sack. With the sack pressing down on her, only her little white legs could be seen running; she used her tail to keep the sack balanced.

Bag after bag of medicinal herbs were poured onto the thunderfire. Finally, a small, bean-sized, gelatinous substance appeared in the center of the thunderfire, radiating a seven-colored glow.

"It's now!"

Zhuo Yang's eyes narrowed, and he immediately took the Qiankun bag in his hand. With a slight thought, a drop of water fell from the Qiankun bag.

The surrounding temperature dropped instantly, and a chill descended, causing Xiao Diao to shiver immediately.

Zhuo Yang's divine sense stirred again, and the water droplets quickly rushed into the thunder and fire, combining with the seven-colored gelatinous substance.

The lightning and fire instantly shot up more than a meter high, crackling and popping continuously, revealing the powerful vital energy contained within the refined gelatinous substance.

A few minutes later, a dark cloud rolled in, and the sky instantly darkened, as if a downpour was imminent.

Little Diao looked up at the sky and shivered uncontrollably.

"Thunder Tribulation!"

Demonic beasts possess an extremely strong perception of lightning tribulations, and she sensed it immediately. She was even more terrified; lightning tribulations were the natural enemy of demonic beasts.

"Stay away, it's going to be dangerous!"

Zhuo Yang said in a deep voice, his expression extremely serious.

Unexpectedly, the pills made by refining the essence of medicinal herbs with thunder and fire, and using cold spring water as the main ingredient, actually attracted a heavenly tribulation!

No, this is called the Pill Tribulation!

Cultivators face heavenly tribulations; passing them allows them to ascend. Demons face even more lightning tribulations; passing them grants them rapid advancement in strength, and they must undergo several lightning tribulations before ascending. Ghosts also face lightning tribulations; passing them allows them to cultivate into ghost immortals.

As for elixirs, the Heavenly Dao also does not allow anything to exist that exceeds the laws of this world, hence the elixir tribulation.

"My favorite part of cultivating the Devouring Heaven Thunder Tribulation is the thunder tribulation!"

"bring it on!"

Zhuo Yang steeled his heart, raised his palm, and lightning and fire burst forth in his palm, forming a huge fireball of lightning with a diameter of more than two meters. Sparks continued to burst, illuminating the dimly lit parking lot time and time again.

Before long, the seven-colored light in the center of the thunder and fire dissipated, and a pill filled with a misty aura took shape!

The pale blue pill was not conspicuous in the thunder and fire, but the dark clouds in the sky suddenly began to churn violently.

A sudden downpour obscured the view within a radius of several kilometers, reducing visibility to only a dozen meters.

Suddenly, light appeared, illuminating the entire manor.

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl struck the pale blue pill held aloft in Zhuo Yang's palm.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Zhuo Yang roared to the sky, grabbed the pill, and then soared into the air to meet the descending heavenly lightning with his body.

boom……

A loud bang was heard, and a huge spark appeared in mid-air.

The immense power instantly burned away Zhuo Yang's clothes, burned off his hair, and charred his skin, causing it to crack and bleed profusely.

A mangled body fell from the high school...

Zhuo Yang, with his cultivation at the Fusion stage, suffered an extremely tragic fate when he tried to withstand the lightning tribulation.

The torrential rain stopped abruptly, and the dark clouds dispersed. On the flooded concrete of the parking lot, only a charred figure remained, its blood staining the puddle beneath it.

Little Diao ran over from a distance and saw Zhuo Yang covered in charred soot. In a panic, she grabbed Zhuo Yang's arm and shook it wildly, squeaking loudly.

"Don't move, it hurts!"

A slight sound came, and the ferret's face immediately showed a human-like surprise. Little Diao breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down in the puddle.

The charred skin peeled away, revealing fair and tender skin. Zhuo Yang propped himself up and sat cross-legged, wiping away the remaining charred dead skin from his face. He said in a deep voice, "Go find me a set of clothes, and don't stare at me!"

If it weren't for cultivating the "Heaven-Devouring Thunder Tribulation," which reforged the physical body through thunder and fire, making the defense extremely strong, any other cultivator of the same level would surely be reduced to ashes if they were to take this thunder tribulation head-on.

Xiao Diao, drooling, was staring at Zhuo Yang with a lovesick expression and didn't hear a thing.

Zhuo Yang glared at her fiercely, and Xiao Diao finally came to her senses. She quickly covered her eyes with one paw, pretending to be blind, and used the other paw to explore the way ahead, stumbling and walking away.

"You're such a drama queen!" Zhuo Yang gritted his teeth in anger.

A demon in the transformation stage, converted to human age, is at most twelve or thirteen years old, which is a little loli!

Do you have to be so lewd?

Furious, Zhuo Yang decided to set rules for Xiao Diao as soon as possible.

Opening his palm, Zhuo Yang saw the pill shimmering with a pale blue light, and instantly felt relieved.

"Enduring that heavenly tribulation wasn't in vain; I've successfully refined the Concentrated Spirit Cold Spring Pill!"

Most importantly, by enduring a lightning tribulation, Zhuo Yang's body also benefited greatly. Relying on the power of the lightning tribulation, Zhuo Yang completely fused his lightning and fire true essence with his body.

Integration period, the culmination!

Every cell in his body was infused with the true essence of thunder and fire, and from then on, the true essence flowed endlessly and was inexhaustible.

With eyes closed, one can sense the surging thunder and fire essence within one's meridians, like a torrent rushing into a river, its power immense.

"Give me just one opportunity and I'll be ready to fall in love."

Zhuo Yang took a deep breath, enjoying the pleasant feeling that came with the completion of the fusion period and the increasing strength of his body.

The sign of the "heart-stirring period" is having one's own understanding of the Way of Heaven, thus experiencing "heart-stirring." It's simple in theory, yet difficult in practice; the only requirement is understanding.

The "Heavenly Thunder Tribulation" is a secret technique of the demon race, different from cultivation techniques. However, once one masteres one technique, all techniques are mastered. Zhuo Yang is not in a hurry and only needs to wait for the opportunity that belongs to him.

Little Diao returned, holding a set of white clothes and white leather shoes in his hands, his eyes wide open.

"Turn around, and don't you dare peek at my body again!" Zhuo Yang took the clothes with a cold face, then glared at him.

Xiao Diao pretended to be stupid and tilted his head to look at Zhuo Yang.

Zhuo Yang gave a cold snort, and Xiao Diao immediately shivered.

Master's cultivation level has improved again!

What incredible speed of cultivation!

In just three days, you went from an ordinary person to a minor expert at the peak of the Fusion stage. Others could only achieve this speed by consuming elixirs, but you forged your body through tribulation lightning...

No wonder Meng Xiaojun calls you Uncle with a herniated disc, you're the most prominent one!

Little Diao turned around and continued to sigh.

Zhuo Yang put on his clothes and noticed that his hair had grown long again. With a wave of his hand, the Dragon Pattern Sword rushed out of his Qiankun Bag, which he grasped in his palm. He then used the sword to cut off his long hair, and then sat cross-legged to continue refining pills.

This time, with his hair all messed up, he didn't dare use so many medicinal herbs. After several attempts, he determined the quantity of herbs and finally found the right ratio, refining ten Cold Spring Pills.

After filling the porcelain bottle containing the Rejuvenation Pill with the medicine, Zhuo Yang, accompanied by Xiao Diao, arrived at the Dongfang family villa.

As Zhuo Yang pushed open the door, Dongfang Jiye, Dongfang Ke'er, and the old butler all stared wide-eyed at him... The little rascal walking upright on the ground made Zhuo Yang feel like he had been forgotten.

"Cough cough!"

Two coughs brought the three of them back to their senses.

"Mr. Zhuo, is it... your pet?" Dongfang Jiye pointed at Xiao Diao with a look of surprise.

Three hours ago, Xiao Diao ran into the villa, wrote in traditional Chinese characters on a piece of paper, and asked Zhuo Yang for clothes.

Dongfang Jiye was stunned and thought he was dreaming.

Looking at Xiao Diao now, I feel even more awe: pets have become intelligent, which shows that Zhuo Yang must be a master among masters!

Yes, I have a very good eye; I've discovered a true master!
