Chapter 561
Beside her, Madam Xuanhua could no longer hold back and whispered, "Is everyone in the Jiu Shan Sect this reckless?"
Elder Huang quickly shook his head.
"Are you kidding? The Yuanying Tribulation is a matter of life and death. Who would dare to take it lightly?"
It would seem as if the Jiu Shan Sect had no respect for the heavenly tribulation, but that was only true for the sect leader.
In fact, a few Jindan disciples seemed a bit confused and began to ask questions.
Zheng Fa surprisingly appeared quite pleased, answering their questions one by one. When no one else raised their hand, he finally took out a water-blue Shen Yuan Dan.
"After the Yang Five Elements are condensed, the Yin Five Elements become relatively simple..."
"According to Xuanhua's experiments, the gathering of the Yin Five Elements is actually a mirror reflection of the Yang Five Elements, occurring naturally."
At this point, Zheng Fa's expression turned serious.
"In other words, once you reach the perfection of the Jindan and the Yang Five Elements are fully condensed, taking the Shen Yuan Dan will allow you to condense the Yin Five Elements in one go, significantly increasing your cultivation."
"That will be the moment you condense your Yuanying."
"You must prepare early; never take it lightly."
With that, Zheng Fa tilted his head back and swallowed the Shen Yuan Dan.
As the pill entered his body, it transformed into a wave of heat at the tip of his tongue, rushing straight to his Dantian.
Once the medicinal power surged into his Dantian, Zheng Fa felt his consciousness swirling, leaving him no time to continue his lecture. His divine sense flowed down through his body, mingling with the power of the Shen Yuan Dan.
The water-blue medicinal energy intertwined with his soul, forming a vast blue ocean within his Dantian.
The Jindan floated above, while the medicinal power surged below, creating a scene reminiscent of a great sun rising from the sea.
Slowly, a reflection of a setting sun began to emerge in the blue ocean.
After simulating the "Jindan Project," everyone understood that this was the condensation of the Yin Five Elements.
Zheng Fa spoke again:
"According to my earlier estimates, condensing the Yin Five Elements requires sufficient divine soul power. You all need to..."
"The Dantian must first be refined using the 'Jiu Shan Jindan Method'; otherwise, it will be difficult to accommodate such a violent increase in spiritual power..."
His tone slowed slightly, as if speaking was becoming a strain.
Senior Sister Yuan bit her lip, watching and listening intently.
It wasn't until Zheng Fa closed his eyes, seemingly out of strength to continue, that Elder Huang looked at him sitting cross-legged on the grass and quietly said to the disciples behind him:
"You should understand your own fortune..."
Even the usually carefree Senior Sister Yuan nodded silently at this moment.
"Then you must also understand the expectations the sect leader has for you."
Madam Xuanhua added with a hint of emotion, "Indeed, I envy you all..."
Senior Sister Yuan understood exactly what Madam Xuanhua was envious of and knew what Elder Huang meant. She looked at Zheng Fa, her heart resolute—she had to learn the "Jiu Shan Jindan Method" and achieve her Yuanying!
The light screen also began to change:
A layer upon layer of dark clouds slowly formed above Zheng Fa's head.
The entire Jiu Shan realm seemed to have plunged into darkness.
Everyone knew that Zheng Fa was beginning to face the Yuanying Tribulation.
"Spiritual Energy Scanner!"
"Microscopic Array!"
"Prepare the Dongxu Spiritual Eye!"
Senior Sister Zhang issued a series of commands.
The spiritual energy scanner, the microscopic array, and even those disciples capable of using the Dongxu Spiritual Eye all had one purpose—to measure the Yuanying Tribulation!
Elder Huang felt increasingly incredulous.
Throughout history in the Xuanwei realm, which cultivator did not dread the Yuanying Tribulation? Yet Zheng Fa was the only one who proposed measuring it.
She even heard from Wuyi that Zheng Fa wanted to create a simulation for the tribulation in the future.
To help the disciples of the Jiu Shan Sect adapt to the intensity of these heavenly tribulations.
The thought of it seemed absurd to her, yet a single remark from Wuyi about Zheng Fa's intentions left her speechless—
Fear arises from ignorance.
She shook her head gently, looking at the light screen, her heart waiting for the first heavenly tribulation:
The Thunder Tribulation.
Zheng Fa flicked his hand, sending out a hemispherical iron cage, a Faraday cage.
Clearly, he wasn't foolish; while teaching, he still held great respect for the heavenly tribulation.
He had made many preparations.
Thunder rumbled in the dark clouds above, but after two incense sticks had burned, no lightning had struck.
Madam Xuanhua asked in confusion, "Why is it taking so long?"
Suddenly, the clouds in the sky began to churn, slowly gathering together.
The black clouds compressed, becoming denser, until they transformed into a silent black monument.
"What is that?" Madam Xuanhua asked in astonishment.
No one could answer, not even the two who had long since transformed into gods, the Blood River Ancestors.
No one present had ever witnessed such a Yuanying Tribulation.
A humanoid figure emerged from the monument, radiating a scorching white light, its face completely blank.
In the distant medicinal garden, the Sun and Moon Bell began to ring of its own accord, the sound echoing ominously, causing unease in everyone’s hearts.
"Is that... the Celestial Sovereign?"
Elder Huang heard Zheng Fa murmur, her heart sinking as she realized who this figure was!
The original master of the Jiu Shan realm, one of the former overlords of Xuanwei, the Celestial Sovereign!
Wasn't this the legendary Dao Fruit cultivator?
The Celestial Sovereign stood in the sky without moving, yet several spiritual energy measuring devices began to explode, breaking down in an instant.
Zheng Fa had not anticipated this occurrence. He had read many notes on tribulation from Elder Huang and had never encountered a similar situation.
He had no time to ponder further; with a thought, the Fusang wood appeared behind him, and a Jindan on it brought light to the darkened world.
"Jindan disciples... retreat from the Contest of Immortals Island!"
Seeing that something unexpected had occurred, Elder Huang immediately ordered.
Senior Sister Yuan and the others hurriedly moved outside, their faces filled with worry and a sense of loss, as if their souls were not at rest.
Elder Huang glanced at them and suddenly spoke:
"You need not worry..."
Senior Sister Yuan and the others looked at the usually stern elder in confusion, unsure why she was suddenly comforting them.
Elder Huang said earnestly, "To encounter such a Yuanying Tribulation, you are not yet worthy..."
Senior Sister Yuan was left speechless, feeling that this consolation was reasonable but rather impolite.

**Chapter 417: Clash of Thunder Laws, The New Master of Jiu Shan**
The Jindan disciples fled from the Contest of Immortals Island.
However, Senior Sister Zhang and the others only distanced themselves slightly, watching Zheng Fa and the Celestial Sovereign in the sky.
The Yuanying Tribulation is a trial of the cultivator's own being; external forces must not interfere, or the power of the tribulation will increase tenfold or a hundredfold... Feeling the pressure of the Celestial Sovereign above, even Senior Sister Zhang cautiously stepped back—
One Celestial Sovereign was already terrifying; imagining ten or a hundred made her scalp tingle.
Yet, as she retreated, her eyes never left Zheng Fa, her grip on the Qingjing Bamboo tightening, her heart filled with questions:
Why is her junior brother's Thunder Tribulation so unique?
Zheng Fa, however, had no time to notice her gaze, as he was consumed by the same confusion.
The appearance of the Celestial Sovereign had caught him completely off guard.
He slowly stood up, gazing at the figure of the Celestial Sovereign. The other had no face, so there were no eyes or nose to speak of, yet Zheng Fa inexplicably felt—
The Celestial Sovereign was also watching him.
The Celestial Sovereign seemed alive!
The scorching white lightning from the black stone monument surged into the Celestial Sovereign's body, making its aura even more powerful, or perhaps more dynamic.
Zheng Fa dared not act rashly, but his wariness grew.
Turning the Yuanying Tribulation into a classroom was partly because he truly did not take it too seriously; after all, in terms of strength, while he might not match a true Dao Fruit cultivator, he was certainly stronger than an average Yuanying.
But now, this Celestial Sovereign seemed to be telling him—an extraordinary Yuanying comes with an extraordinary Yuanying Tribulation.
Elder Huang's homework didn't cover this!
It seemed that Elder Huang was indeed too weak.
But in the next moment, Zheng Fa dismissed that thought:
The Celestial Sovereign suddenly raised an arm, and Zheng Fa felt a surge of alertness.
Yet the figure did not attack; instead, it clawed its fingers toward the direction of the medicinal garden, producing a thunderous sound from its chest: "Zhong!"
The Sun and Moon Bell in the medicinal garden seemed to respond to the call, breaking through the air.
This was the first time Zheng Fa felt that the Sun and Moon Bell was slipping from his control!
As he watched the Sun and Moon Bell hovering between him and the Celestial Sovereign, a realization struck him:
The Celestial Sovereign's appearance might not be due to his own strength but rather because of the Jiu Shan realm!
