Meng Lin, adorned with a clear white robe sat amidst a dozen bottles of booze with her eyes shut tight. Inside her, a storm brewed, each breath she took seemed to resonate with the surroundings as she quickly digested the last of the potent qi within her.
Then, a sudden calm washed over her, like a warm blanket over her body. She opened her eyes, feeling clear-headed and accomplished, she had finally broken through to the peak of the Gold Core Realm.
With a satisfied grin, she glanced around at the lingering energy in the air as well as the dozen bottles on the floor, she had been surprised at how fast that she was able to break down the energies within the bottles, knowing full well, what just 2 of these bottles did to her before.
It was no doubt due to both the sacred grade cultivation method and aptitude advancement stone, In that moment Meng Lin theorized that she could breakthrough into the Soul Wondering Realm without even relying on the realm advancement elixir, at most, it would only take a couple extra days rather than hours, it was only a pity that the elixer would become useless if she doesn't use it now otherwise she wouldn't mind proving her theory.
"Now," she declared, her expression turning serious. Meng Lin laid out eight realm-condensing pills before her, contemplating the uncertain foundation that awaited her post-elixir consumption. It was better to be safe and fortify her realm first before anything happens.
Without a moment's hesitation, she swallowed the pills one after the other. Each pill dissolved into a surge of power that flowed through her veins, converging on her dantian. The pills' sole purpose was to solidify her realm further, enhancing the luminosity of her golden core as it absorbed the pills' energies.
As the last pill dissolved, her body's energy field underwent a significant transformation. The surrounding air pulsed with vibrancy as the essence of her qi danced around her. Meng Lin, now in a deep meditative state, became absorbed in concentration, unaffected by the passage of time and the movement of the sun across the sky.
When she opened her eyes, the world appeared anew, with a purple hue to her gaze Meng Lin reasoned that the core within her had consolidated enough.
Meng Lin then retrieved the Realm Advancement Elixir. This small white elixir, shimmering with potent energy, was her gateway to new power, it was a treasure that would move even Narscent Soul Cultivators.
Holding the elixir before her, she familiarized herself with its energy, which responded by emitting a shimmering light. With clear determination, Meng Lin opened the lid and poured it into her mouth in an instant.
Gulp!
An explosion of energy engulfed her, initiating the process of a breakthrough at once, feeling the sudden action by the elixer, Meng Lin was glad that she had consumed those realm-condensing pills, otherwise, she would definitely have a shaky realm once she entered the Soul Wondering Realm.
'This elixer immediately begins the process without making sure that you have the right amount of energy within your body' Meng Lin thought, she also didn't overlook the fact that the elixer might not have gathered more energy since she already had the necessary amount of qi within her dantian.
Nevertheless, Meng Lin felt her body transforming, gathering all her Qi towards her dantian. This transformation was both exhilarating and daunting. Her consciousness was drawn into her dantian, where she witnessed her golden core's evolution.
The core absorbed all her energy as well as the elixir's energy before shattering and reforming into the figure of a small white ball of light, within this ball of light appears to be an infant, marking the emergence of her soul and her entry into the Soul Wandering Realm.
Meng Lin's soul, which she couldn't perceive before had transformed into an infant within a small white membrane, allowing Meng Lin to finally be able to interact with her soul.
She felt the soul as if her hand and feet and she immediately explored her newly formed realm, as if instinctual the infant within the white membrane opened its eyes and suddenly Meng Lin's vision changed.
Within her vision was the small white membrane and she stretched out her hand to touch the membrane only to feel resistance, she suddenly understood something before she felt dizzy and closed her eyes.
Suddenly, her vision was pulled back into her body, and her eyes fluttered open to a world that seemed more vivid and alive. Standing, she felt an indomitable strength coursing through her veins, a testament to her successful breakthrough.
As the elixir's energy dissipated, leaving behind only a sense of peacefulness. A profound form of qi now coursed through her, purer and more potent than anything she had ever experienced before. With each breath, she could feel the robust strength flowing through her body, and the strength gave her confidence.
"Haa"
Exhaling deeply, Meng Lin suddenly sensed something and rose to her feet, her eyes traveled to the sky as thunderstorms began to form over the city.
"Should've known" Meng Lin said as she observed the gathering storm clouds with a hint of playfulness, however, the atmosphere grew heavy and she felt an impending sense of danger causing her expression to turn serious.
Boom!
From the thunderstorm came a streak of thunder that struck with a deafening sound that reverberated through the air.
Meng Lin stood her ground, her body rooted firmly to the ground.
With a calm demeanor, she channeled her qi, allowing it to flow smoothly through her spiritual veins. As the lightning bolt neared, she raised her hand, palm outstretched, and with a concentrated effort, grasped the bolt with a surge of her own energy.
Exerting force within her palm, Meng Lin tore through the thunderbolt which left streaks of lightning shimmering in the air.
Boom!
Another thunderbolt descended, its brightness stronger than the previous one, however, Meng Lin remained unfazed as she once again caught the bolt of lightning, before crushing it within her palm.
Boom! Boom! Boom. Three thunderbolts, almost simultaneous, unleashed their fury upon Meng Lin as if heaven were not pleased with her nonchalant attitude.
Meng Lin this time didn't use the same approach as before, instead she released her spiritual qi outward to overlap anything within her surroundings while leaving her body bare for the heavenly tribulations.
Boom!!
Her body tensed as she felt the thunderbolt's stinging effects, closing her eyes she began to immerse herself in the bath of lighting, she was perceiving a subtle bit of Elemental Qi within the bolts of thunder.
As she didn't intercept this attack midway, the surroundings also suffered the same wave of intense thunderbolts, however with her qi overlapping everything within a hundred meters from her, the buildings remained unaffected by the surge of thunderbolts that headed their way.
Rumble!!!
The sky darkened further as if accepting Meng Lin's challenge, the air around her crackled with raw, unbridled power. The citizens of the city, having noticed the unusual weather and the relentless assault of thunderbolts on the Li Family home, gathered in small groups, whispering and speculating about the cause of such phenomena.
"Have the heavens turned against the Li Family?" one of the onlookers murmured, his eyes wide with a mix of fear and excitement.
At a different part of the city, another exclaimed, "Wow look!" pointing toward the Li family, "What's going on".
The voices in the city grew louder, however the howling noise of the thunderstorm drowned out much of their speculation. The city's attention had shifted to the Li Family home, where a new, mysterious phenomenon was unfolding.
Meanwhile, inside the Li Family residence, elders and disciples alike were in a state of shock. "This...is this is a sign from the heavens," one of the elders gasped, his eyes fixed on the sky above. "It's coming from the isolated courtyard, what's going on"
Amidst the family members only the Family Head and the patriarch of the family held a solemn expression, "is this the doing of that woman" the old man thought as he gazed at the thunderbolts.
Back in the center of it all, Meng Lin continued to let the thunderbolts strike her body, the seventeen bolt struck and Meng Lin's body began to suffer injuries, her arms and legs began to show signs of serious burns, and her breathing became labored. Despite the pain and the physical toll it was taking, Meng Lin's spirit remained unbroken. With every bolt that struck her, her determination only seemed to grow stronger, her resolve hardening like steel.
As the 18th thunderbolt gathered, Meng Lin finally opened her eyes, "this is the last one" she said with disappointment as a massive thunderbolt, more formidable than any before, streaked across the sky, illuminating the surroundings in a blinding light. Meng Lin's eyes narrowed, and her mind sharpened.
She raised her hand and bolts of thunderbolts began to crackle around her arms and she gathered a large amount of Qi before shooting out with her own bolt of qi. If you look carefully you would notice how similar the bolt of qi appeared like a heavenly tribulation.
Boom!!!
The resulting explosion shimmered through the air, dissipating the lightning's force and reducing it to harmless sparks. Meng Lin retrieved her spiritual qi, in slight disappointment, she had intended to see if she could learn the Elemental Qi of lighting through this endeavor however it proved unfruitful.
"Well at least I learned something from getting all these burns" Meng Lin raised her arms and immediately saw the Immortal Lotus Robe begin healing her body, "but I wonder what is this feeling I have right now," she said as she noticed the feelings of danger still within the air.
Releasing her spiritual consciousness outwards Meng Lin was instantly alerted as she looked back up into the sky only to notice an eyeball looking back at her. She was frozen and under the scrutinizing gaze of the eyeball, she felt completely naked.
However, before Meng Lin could react further or analyze this mysterious presence, the eyeball vanished as abruptly as it had appeared, leaving no trace behind in the sky. The sudden disappearance of such an ominous entity did little to ease Meng Lin's unsettled feelings. If anything, it intensified her wariness.
She stood there for a moment, the remnants of the thunderstorm swirling around her. "Who or what was that?" she murmured to herself, however, she couldn't come to any conclusions.
Shaking off the eerie feeling, Meng Lin decided not to dwell on the incident for too long. Given the lack of immediate threat, she knew it was more important to focus on her current tasks ahead.
"Now I..." Meng Lin was about to say something when all of a sudden system panels began to appear before her.
[Congratulations for reaching a new realm, you have received rewards for your achievement]
