Master of Strange Dao

Just standing here, he felt the overwhelming Xin Metal Qi surging toward him, those yin energies continuously infiltrating his body. He felt as if he was already showing signs of poisoning.

He hurriedly operated his Dharma Method to digest those energies.

Yu Ziqing had never expected before that the Silver Lake they always talked about was such a vast body, seemingly a Mercury Lake.

"This place, who knows when it appeared, existed since ancient times. That Soft Silver was an extremely good material, used in many Magical Treasures, but gathered to such an extent, it became a forbidding land, impossible to mine.

Except for Body Cultivators who mastered the Golden Water Yin Escape, other Fourth and Fifth Tier Body Cultivators approaching this close were highly likely to be corroded to death by the Xin Metal Qi here.

Qi Refining cultivators below the Seventh Tier, even with Magical Treasure protection, couldn't stay here for more than one two-hour period.

Get ready, I am starting."

Yang stood on the mountain top, glanced at the Silver Lake, retreated slightly, then stood upright, adopting a pugilist's stance. The demonic energy and Evil Qi around him surged, transforming into a rolling plume reaching the sky.

He let out a low cry, and electric sparks began to faintly appear in the air.

The vast Xin Metal Qi and Gui Water Qi here started coalescing in the sky.

Sizzling electric arcs continuously flashed in the air. The Heavenly Tribulation had yet to take shape, yet Yu Ziqing already felt a slight tingle.

He decisively retreated a bit, looking back to see those pursuing evils, sensing the change in aura, turning and fleeing desperately, cursing their lack of extra legs.

In the next moment, a finger-width strand of electric light appeared out of thin air and struck Yang.

Yang grinned fiercely, neither dodging nor defending, letting the thunder light traverse his body, causing the demonic energy and Evil Qi around him to whirl.

And that thread of electric light seemed to signal the formal beginning.

Countless finger-width electric arcs emerged in the air, engulfing an area of several miles.

Those pursuing evils who hadn't escaped the range were all engulfed by the thunder light, their Evil Qi steaming off, flesh shattering amidst their screams.

Yu Ziqing could no longer concern himself with those evils; his body was already numb.

The explosive power of those electric arcs was lower than expected but was incessant with high penetration, directly piercing his skin and flesh to the internal organs.

Just one strike caused him to spit blood, his heart momentarily halting.

The next instant, his Qi-blood automatically erupted, and the silver whirlpool in the Blood Sea spun rapidly, absorbing and shredding the thunder light.

Moments later, Yu Ziqing perceived the benefits.

His body, tempered by the thunder, began to strengthen internally.

At this time, he began to learn from Yang, gradually relaxing, letting the thunder permeate his body, tempering every inch.

Meanwhile, Yang's demonic energy and Evil Qi encountered tempering first.

The impurities in the demonic energy and the aggressiveness in the Evil Qi were forcibly purified.

Once the demonic energy and Evil Qi were nearly depleted, both, under the thunder's influence, were continuously pressured, fused, then slowly exhausted.

Eventually, Yang relied entirely on his physical body to withstand, his fur charred and falling, his skin displaying large patches of thunder scars.

Yet, he persisted, even drawing on Jade Tomb's power to prevent his skin from cracking and deforming.

Yu Ziqing gradually adapted to the Thunderbolt Body Tempering, confirming that Yang had invoked the Transformation Thunder Tribulation.

This ordeal was the easiest thunder tribulation for the Demon Clan, its main power not aimed at destroying the demon beasts but assisting their forced life-form transformation to emerge in human form.

Because possessing a human form, having the natural Nine Orifices, was the most suitable Taoist Body for cultivation.

However, some demons disliked transformation, lacking natural Nine Orifices, and would give birth to Nine Orifices with the thunder tribulation's aid, making their future cultivation path broader and longer.

Yu Ziqing glanced at Yang, who was entirely blackened yet persisted in resisting, unwilling to transform.

He was originally a human transformed into a sheep, practicing the Demon Dao, now during transformation, was actually able to revert.

But seeing him, it seemed he was using the Heavenly Tribulation's Heaven and Earth Power, forcibly transforming his not yet fully transformed state into a real demon.

Yu Ziqing remained silent, neither speaking nor persuading, as Yang's choice surely had his reasons.

However, after this choice, he could no longer revert to his original state, from today he was not part of the human race anymore.

Yu Ziqing began to concentrate on using the thunder to temper himself. As Yang had mentioned, such an opportunity might not come again.

The Transformation Thunder Tribulation, where the tempering effect exceeded the destructive effect, wasn't something easy to benefit from. If not cautious, they could both perish.

Grasp the opportunity well, consider it a swift way to nurture oneself.

Even if not greatly enhancing power, it would significantly increase potential.

Yu Ziqing estimated it was equivalent to nurturing and training on Jinlan Mountain for a year or two.

After more than one two-hour period, Yang's skin finally began cracking, and Jade Tomb's power was retracted by Yang.
