Di Jiu stopped, as this was already the deepest part of the Thunder Canyon. The thunder streaks here were much sparser because nearly all the thunder streaks were crashing towards a gigantic green rock suspended in mid-air.

This green rock was a full nine feet in both width and height and floated three feet above the ground. Dense thunder streaks landed on the green rock and then disappeared without a trace.

This had to be the Primeval Thunder Rock. Even though Di Jiu hadn’t seen the Primeval Thunder Rock before, he was sure he wasn’t wrong.

However, he didn’t take the Primeval Thunder Rock. Instead, he took out eight supreme-grade spirit meridians and placed them around the Primeval Thunder Rock before directly landing on top of the thunder rock.

Boom, boom, boom! Di Jiu had just landed on top of the thunder rock, when endless thunder streaks crashed against his body. Only one wave of Thunder Tribulation tore up all his clothes.

Even though Di Jiu had an immortal-like Tempered Body, he was still left bleeding profusely after the attack of the dense, vicious thunder streaks.

On the other hand, he was very excited. Ever since he had attained an immortal-like Tempered Body, Tribulation Transcendence had rarely injured him seriously. Although this type of dense thunder streaks injured him seriously, they also made him feel kind of carefree. The thick Thunder Origin and Spirit Qi gave him a sense of satisfaction after cultivating.

So what if he got injured? When he had been body-tempering in the past, his injuries had never been less serious than this. Moreover, although the current thunder streaks were dense, they couldn’t kill him. In the past, he had been on the verge of dying while body-tempering on many occasions.

The thunder streaks crashing towards the Primeval Thunder Rock gave Di Jiu injuries all over his body. Initially, blood splattered on the green rock and dyed Di Jiu’s cultivating space red. Towards the end, Di Jiu’s skeleton started to get torn apart as well.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy Art circulation got smoother and faster, while Di Jiu’s cultivation level also kept increasing like crazy and his already immortal-like Tempered Body continued to get stronger.

Time passed slowly as Di Jiu’s body started to heal from the initial phase of profuse bleeding and shattered bones and his blood and flesh slowly got restored.

Half a year later, no wounds could be seen on Di Jiu’s body. His cultivation level had also moved past the seventh-stage Life Tribulation Realm and broken through to the eighth-stage Life Tribulation Realm. A year and a half later, Di Jiu attained the ninth-stage Life Tribulation Realm. Two years later, he had perfected all nine stages of the Life Tribulation Realm.

Although the thunder streaks that crashed against his body were still dense, they couldn’t tear his skin anymore.

There was still a differentiation between high-level and low-level Spirit Realm Tempered Bodies.

Di Jiu still didn’t stop cultivating. He was going to break into the True Form Realm.

The speed at which the Galaxy Meridian absorbed Spirit Qi could rival that of a huge grinding disc. As Thunder Origin Spirit Qi was added by the dense thunder streaks, Di Jiu kept madly improving his Quintessential Essence every moment.

The True Essence Energy in his Galaxy Meridian was getting thicker and thicker. However, the True Form Realm seemed as blurry to Di Jiu as looking at flowers in the fog. Making contact with it would be impossible.

There was no time during cultivation. Three years had passed, or rather five years ever since Di Jiu had entered the Thunder Canyon, yet he was still unable to make contact with the True Form Realm.

Based on his personality, he would definitely have stopped to look for other ways if he could not come into contact with the True Form Realm after a few months of reclusive cultivation. In the cultivation Dao, tension and relaxation had to alternate. Di Jiu was aware that there was no point in going down a dead end.

However, he didn’t give up on breaking into the True Form Realm. He knew very well that this was the best place for trying to break into the True Form Realm. Once he was out, he feared that there would be no better place than this.

He was different from the rest, who had True Spirit Elixirs and True Vine Elixirs. He certainly wouldn’t be able to obtain either of those. Without those two spirit herbs, being a Grade-Nine Elixir King wouldn’t mean anything.

Six years had passed ever since he had entered the Thunder Canyon, yet Di Jiu still hadn’t managed to break through the cultivation barrier of the True Form Realm. He now began to feel anxious.

The fact that he hadn’t managed to advance and become a True Form cultivator on the Small Central Planet didn’t mean that he could do so if he left the Small Central Planet. Things would have been better if Geng Ji hadn’t interfered. Now that Geng Ji had killed Bai Wufang, the son of the Protectorate Lord of the Interstellar Protectorate of the True Dominion, he might not even get the chance to cultivate, let alone break into the True Form Realm.

As he realized that he only had a few more months before he would have to leave the Small Central Planet, Di Jiu bit the bullet and directly induced the thunder streak that hadn’t been refined into the Galaxy Meridian. He had to force it, as he didn’t have the True Spirit Elixir. Based on the current strength of his Tempered Body, blasting the Galaxy Meridian with the thunder streak wouldn’t crush his body.

Boom! After the thunder streak blasted into the Galaxy Meridian, it exploded like a bomb in an egg. The whole Galaxy Meridian was warped. The originally clear, vast skies in the Galaxy Meridian instantly became chaotic because of the thunder streak. The entire spatial order within the Galaxy Meridian almost dissipated. The Quintessential Essence in the body scurried in all directions, as if it had been burnt by a ball of flames.

The stakes were high now. This was an omen that the cultivation would be destroyed. The breached Quintessential Essence had lost control and the Spiritual Sea was starting to roar too.

Di Jiu worked hard to circulate the Galaxy Art and kill off the thunder streak. He was worried that before he could kill off the thunder streak, his body would be blown up. Meanwhile, he tried his best to activate the small gray stone in the depths of his Spiritual Sea.

The golden Dao Law in the stone inside the Spiritual Sea was very powerful. Di Jiu had long suspected that the golden Dao Law was only temporarily borrowing space in his Spiritual Sea. It wasn’t really his after all. Now that he was on the verge of death, he could only try his best to get help from the golden Dao Law. At the same time, he emitted his willpower. If he fell, that golden Dao Law would have nowhere to stay either.

The gray stone budged a little under Di Jiu’s mighty willpower. Subsequently, the golden Dao Law emitted small ripples, as if it was worried that Di Jiu would fall.

Di Jiu had been to the Five Continent Dao Pagoda and gained insight into its most basic law. Once the golden ripples started to radiate, he immediately realized that this was a clear law of heaven and earth. It only took a ray of this law for him to sense the cultivation barrier of the True Form Realm. This was way better than the True Spirit Elixir and the True Vine Elixir.

A whole new cultivation barrier suddenly appeared in Di Jiu’s consciousness. Although it only appeared for a split second, Di Jiu was exhilarated. This was the cultivation barrier of the True Form Realm!

Di Jiu could care less about living or dying. He madly took control of all the Quintessential Essence in his body, as well as that thunder streak, and rushed towards the cultivation shackles of the True Form Realm.

Crack! A crack appeared after only the first strike.

Di Jiu’s entire body trembled. Hundreds of acupuncture points were torn up by the strike. In an instant, he was drenched in blood.

The thunder streaks that landed on him roared louder and became even thicker. Di Jiu was aware that the True Form Thunder Tribulation had come.

He knew very well that he was hanging between life and death. Although he had used the help of the golden Dao Law to touch the cultivation barrier of the True Form Realm and could break through the cultivation shackles at any time, as long as he didn’t break through to the True Form Realm, he could be blown up at any second.

The thunder streaks on the Primeval Thunder Rock were already dense. Now that Di Jiu had induced the True Form Thunder Tribulation, even denser thunder streaks struck like a rainstorm.

The only thing that Di Jiu could do was try his best to circulate the Galaxy Art and break into the True Form Realm.

When another crack was blasted open in his body, Di Jiu felt the chaotic Quintessential Essence that had been congested in the warped Galaxy Meridian gush out all at once. Meanwhile, the thunder streak that he had induced into his body disappeared. The Galaxy Meridian got clearer, as it had been in the past, yet also broader and vaster. The galaxy in the meridian was brilliant and decorated with numerous clear stars.

The Thunder Tribulation was still going on. Di Jiu heaved a sigh of relief as he kept absorbing the Spirit Qi and Thunder Origin like mad in an effort to advance his cultivation.

Then, he used the Heavenly Aqua Saber and blasted it towards the sky of dense thunder streaks.

Di Jiu wasn’t trying to block the thunder streaks. Instead, he wanted to attract even more powerful Thunder Tribulation streaks.

The first time the Heavenly Aqua Saber was blasted, it trembled in the thunder streak. Di Jiu immediately felt the Heavenly Aqua Saber become even stronger.

As the Heavenly Aqua Saber advanced from a middle-grade Spirit Weapon to a high-grade Spirit Weapon, it became four-feet and two-inches long.

Di Jiu, who knew that this was his last bountiful harvest in the Small Central World, took out and blasted a few thousand saber weapons.

The Thunder Tribulation streaks that fell from the skies became fiercer thanks to Di Jiu’s attack. Meanwhile, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea had also started to vibrate.

Di Jiu had experienced this a number of times when his Spiritual Sea advanced and while he was cultivating the Spiritual Force Training Art. How could he not know that there was a chance that his Spiritual Sea would advance now?

Without hesitation, he took out two black Roast Divine Herbs and swallowed them. At the same time, he circulated the Starry Sky Art and began to circulate the Forging Spiritual Art in order to condense his Spiritual Sea.

A frightening pain was emitted from the Spiritual Sea. The two Roast Divine Herbs transformed into Roast Divine Flames that seemed even more formidable than Dao fire. They were obviously about to turn Di Jiu’s entire Spiritual Sea into dust.

Di Jiu remained fearless. His Spiritual Sea was extremely stable and powerful, so these two black Roast Divine Herbs would definitely have no way of destroying it. Indeed, as the Spiritual Force Training Art continued to circulate, the Roast Divine Herbs were slowly absorbed. To his surprise, Di Jiu discovered that the 10 patterned streaks in his Spiritual Sea gradually became blurry and formed one streak with a faint golden pattern.
