Chapter 311 Block Lightning_2
The crowd had been fighting all night and were hungry and thirsty, so when they saw that Immortal Tie of the Sword Sect was so generous, offering palace delicacies and imperial banquets, they were pleasantly surprised, feeling blessed with a rare Immortal Fate, and they all expressed their gratitude.
Tie Dan, in reality, wasn't that generous; these items were actually snatched from the East Bright Temple. Initially, he planned to keep them for himself, and his heart ached a bit. But seeing that Ning Lingshuang's time was nearly up, and to avoid missing the rare opportunity for lightning tempering, he gritted his teeth and took them out to supplement her.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, I see you are about to ascend. Why not stay at my Hidden Sword Manor to recuperate? I will personally watch over and protect you."
"Ah, well... thank you for your kindness, True Man, but since this place is your Daoist field, staying too long would be an imposition..."
Ning Lingshuang was momentarily puzzled. Although she was aware of her outstanding appearance and had received countless advances from Fellow Daoists, it seemed Immortal Tie hadn't shown such tendencies before?
Does he think that now she's breaking through to the Nascent Soul and achieving great success in Divine Skill, he should try pursuing her?
Ning Lingshuang hesitated for a moment but did not refuse, after all, a Mystic Sect's Nascent Soul True Man seeking companionship is nothing to scoff at. Who else could she choose?
Seeing Ning Lingshuang still hesitating, Tie Dan knew that these things might not be enough after all. After all, the tribulation thunder is indeed a supreme opportunity for tempering the Dao Body, and it's understandable if one is reluctant to give it up.
So he quickly raised the stakes, tossing the Investiture of the Gods onto the Taoist Temple.
"Whoosh!"
The Taiji Five Qi poured out! Like a waterfall, it filled the Hidden Sword Manor! In an instant, it looked like clouds, mist, smoke! So much so that the Sword Array outside the manor was triggered several times!
"Wow!" "What kind of Qi Storage is this!" "Is it a Divinity Transformation Level Cave Heaven Blessed Land!"
Everyone was amazed! Quickly took the time to breathe and cultivate!
"Thank you for your kindness, Lingshuang accepts it with humility!"
Seeing this, Ning Lingshuang, with the basic quality of Mystic Sect Disciples' cultivation taking the upper hand immediately, bowed to Tie Dan and hastened to refine Qi.
As soon as the clouds and mist swirled, and colored light arrayed, several Qi vortices arose within the manor, suggesting that not only Ning Lingshuang, but two or three others were about to cross the tribulation!
Tie Dan was overjoyed,
"Very well, everyone please cultivate at ease, take this opportunity to break through the realm, I will protect you all!"
Thus, over a hundred Mystic Sect Disciples, took the moment to cultivate together at the Hidden Sword Manor!
And this earth-shattering scene naturally caused dark clouds to gather, and thunder to rumble!
It's coming, it's coming! The lightning is about to strike!
Tie Dan was overjoyed! Hurriedly removed the Daoist robe and vestment robe, carrying no magic treasures, flying upwards to meet the Heavenly Thunder!
Sword casting naturally requires tempered forging. Previously, Tie Dan had battled with others, twice using Dharma Manifestation for Divinity Transformation to respond, once with Azure Dragon and once with Blood Eagle, both shattered and unable to withstand, precisely because the Dao Body was not condensed enough, resulting in low defense and naturally losing when colliding with those experts who had been repeatedly polished.
Although Tie Dan used to frequently slay people across levels, killing monsters across realms, now couldn't withstand a head-on collision, but actually there's nothing unscientific about it.
After all, if both sides' offense and defense were fully digitalized, Tie Dan's offense and defense would definitely exceed the other's stats to deliver output.
The crux is because the 'My Sword' that Tie Dan cultivated is an unprecedented method, Heavenly Breath and Earthly Evil encompass the universe, unlike old methods which have bottlenecks.
Moreover, Beichen Nine Luminaries Sword Qi has special effects for Qi-breaking and Break Defense. Not to mention Turbo Technique, Blood Poppy Skill, Sword Array, and sword light, all these increase attack.
Therefore, when Tie Dan concentrated his entire life's attack power and all values onto the sword tip, attacking without defending, naturally nothing could withstand it, and unhindered.
But now his attack power has overflowed, stacking higher yields diminishing returns, and future opponents will almost all be Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation level old monsters with chart-topping damage, even a slight touch can deplete his health bar to the bottom, Blood Jade Technique's healing wouldn't suffice, so Tie Dan naturally had to begin stacking defense with all his might.
However, stacking defense itself is indeed difficult, since the types of damage are just too many, even Body Refinement with Gang Fist fears Primordial Spirit Method intrusion. Moreover, the Mystic Sect has the Taiji Five Qi and various other Qi from Second and Third Rank refining, even one sword light frequency adjustment has a whole bunch; stacking resistance against physical, magic, and Primordial Spirit specifically is impossible to be perfect.
Therefore, in a normal setting to cultivate, naturally it involves long-term closed-door cultivation, painstaking refining, and it takes five hundred to a thousand years of honing to polish a Divinity Transformation Dao Body to be battle-ready.
But Tie Dan doesn't have hundreds of years to waste, so he chooses to directly refine the body with Heavenly Thunder.
After all, Mystic Sect Daoist Collection summarized three passes and thoroughly understands the heavenly thunder mechanism.
The heavenly thunder is essentially the Heavenly Dao punishment of the Taiji Realm, equivalent to all attribute true damage; as long as one can withstand the heavenly thunder, the Dao Body will naturally resist other outputs later, repeated tempering, directly striking down and rebuilding the Dao Body's flaws and weaknesses, such a method of refining to enhance defense is certainly the best.
And Tie Dan himself knew the obvious effects of the Heavenly Tribulation, after all, he had been struck by thunder twice.
The first time, the residual waves of those Six Dao Heavenly Thunders left him shattered, nearly perishing.
The second time, a hit just made a sound on his forehead, basically no reaction.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Tie Dan's Dao Body is now perfect, it just shows that the condensation of his Dao Body can now withstand one thunder's output, but not six.
