After three years of intensive cultivation and significant expenditure of resources to bolster spiritual energy, Lin Tianming has reached a critical stage in his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm. As he successfully navigates the infusion process, a massive gathering of spiritual energy signals the imminent descent of the Sixfold Thunder Tribulation. Lin Shilu immediately orders all clan members to retreat to a safe distance, bracing for the perilous trial that will determine whether Lin Tianming ascends to the Nascent Soul Realm or faces destruction.

As time slipped by, the heavy dark clouds expanded, rapidly plunging the entire sky into a gloomy abyss.

Deep within those swirling storm clouds, thunder began to gather; lightning flickered incessantly while thunder rumbled like an approaching army.

“Boom…”

Through the rolling thunder, Lin Tianming, who had remained hidden for three years, finally made his presence known.

In a mere shimmer of light, he materialized atop a towering mountain peak.

He stood at the summit surveying his surroundings, his demeanor calm and his gaze profound and brilliant. As his Daoist robe fluttered in the gale, he radiated the imposing presence of a seasoned expert.

The aura Lin Tianming projected at this moment was exceptionally potent, his momentum carrying an astonishing weight.

While his energy output was perhaps not vastly different from his baseline, compared to typical Nascent Soul Stage experts, the disparity in his foundation was stark.

To the onlookers of the Lin Family, however, Lin Tianming’s aura felt nothing short of terrifying.

His unwavering resolve, paired with a fierce, burning fighting spirit, instilled an immense sense of confidence in his kin.

They understood that Lin Tianming possessed extraordinary talent and a rate of Cultivation that marked him as a once-in-a-millennium Heaven’s Chosen Son of the Qingzhou Land.

Even his raw strength was a phenomenon rarely documented in the chronicles of the region.

Such a prodigious talent would never willingly submit to the destruction of the Heavenly Tribulation.

His defiant attitude made this refusal to bow abundantly clear.

In truth, judging by his composed reaction, Lin Tianming did not seem intimidated by the impending Sixfold Thunder Tribulation.

He fully grasped the peril facing the Lin Family, and he knew there was no path around the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Since he was cornered, it was better to embrace the trial openly.

Only when a cultivator is stripped of all retreat can they truly unleash their deepest potential.

Lin Tianming lived by this philosophy. Furthermore, he possessed absolute faith in his own prowess.

He reasoned that hesitation while facing a Heavenly Tribulation would only lead to a dismal outcome; it was far wiser to abandon doubt and strike with everything he had.

By risking everything and embracing the belief that vitality is found within the shadow of death, one can summon strength beyond limits.

Holding this conviction, Lin Tianming stood atop the peak, his sharp gaze fixed upon the heavens with an unmistakable thirst for combat.

“After over a century of Cultivation, this moment has finally arrived.”

“Today, regardless of the ferocity of this Heavenly Tribulation, it is fated not to obstruct my ascent…”

“Nascent Soul Stage… I shall undoubtedly reach it…”

“Come…”

“Let me measure the true might of the Sixfold Thunder Tribulation…”

Internalizing these thoughts, Lin Tianming let his aura erupt, weaving his unshakeable determination into a fighting spirit that soared to its zenith.

“Boom…”

The Heavenly Tribulation seemed to perceive his insolence.

Under the supreme authority of the Heavenly Dao, no provocation from a mere mortal would be tolerated.

As soon as Lin Tianming revealed himself, the thunderclouds above coalesced into their final, lethal form.

Countless streaks of lightning, resembling frenzied snakes, surged through the massive dark expanse.

“Boom…”

A deafening clap of thunder signaled the release of these lightning snakes, which rapidly converged to form the illusory shadow of a colossal dragon.

The apparition was gargantuan, suspended in the sky for several dozen feet, its four claws hanging down ominously. The scales across its body were etched in vivid detail, and the dual dragon horns on its head gave it a lifelike, terrifying appearance.

“Roar Roar Roar…”

As the Thunder Dragon unleashed a sonic roar, it appeared almost sentient.

The projection was not merely a construct of light; both its aura and momentum mimicked that of a genuine dragon.

Watching this, Lin Tianming understood that the First Layer of the Thunder Tribulation was descending.

Drawing from his knowledge of past tribulations and historical accounts within the Cultivation World, the initial strike was rarely the strongest.

It was, at best, a mere diagnostic test from the heavens.

Facing this opening volley, Lin Tianming felt no need for panic; his strength already stood at the pinnacle of his peers.

Moreover, he possessed physical resilience and defensive capabilities that exceeded those of many Third Order Late Stage Demonic Beasts.

With such a solid foundation, he was certain he could withstand the baptism of the First Layer without paying a heavy price.

This was the extent of his absolute confidence.

Without a flicker of fear, Lin Tianming stood his ground and summoned his first defense treasure, suspending it above his head.

He unleashed his Turtle Shell Shield, which expanded rapidly under his control, manifesting a shimmering cyan barrier that enveloped him in total protection.
