Chapter 264: Chapter 171: First Taste of Extreme Trials, Heavenly Thunder Physique! (5k)_2
[Just then, another bolt of lightning struck you...]
[Boom!]
[After a flash of lightning, your Protective Gang Qi was completely shattered.]
[Without enough time to muster another layer of Protective Gang Qi, your body was obliterated by the endless lightning.]
[Along with your Divine Soul, pulverized by the Power of Laws...]
[You died!]
[Simulation ended!]
After the simulation ended, Su Xing felt a sense of regret and loss.
"To think, I actually failed..."
In the few short minutes, Su Xing watched the simulation text with his heart in his throat.
In the process of breaking his limits, Su Xing, relying on his strong Origin Force and Divine Skills of Protective Gang Qi, managed to endure the initial rounds of the thunder's baptism.
His body kept breaking through, drawing ever closer to his own limits.
He even gained a precious trace of the power of thunder...
But later, Su Xing chose to further challenge himself, venturing into a more powerful region of lightning, only to be demolished by the thunder, his efforts falling short...
Su Xing was silent for a moment, asking himself in his heart.
If given another chance, would he still enter the moderate thunder area to endure a stronger baptism by the power of thunder?
Or would he... proceed methodically, seeking out the smaller thunder areas to break through his limits and advance to the Broken Void Realm?
"I think, if given another chance... I would still choose the powerful region of lightning to accept the baptism!"
A resolute look flashed in Su Xing's eyes.
The path of cultivation is inherently a struggle against the heavens.
If one always remains mediocre, they will eventually stagnate and be swallowed by the torrents of time.
"Clearly, accepting the baptism of the smaller lightning region... although it could also lead to becoming Broken Void, the gains would definitely not be as great as those from the moderate thunder!"
"And what I want is to be the strongest!"
Su Xing was very clear in his heart; the power of the Thunder Laws is a precious force.
The Power of Laws is a mysterious power only Immortals can access.
For Su Xing, a mere cultivator in the Divinity Transformation Stage, to come in contact with this Power of Laws was already an immense stroke of fortune!
If he could really obtain the Power of Laws, Su Xing would receive many benefits.
"It's a pity... my Protective Gang Qi is only at the Mahayana level, not strong enough to withstand two consecutive bolts of thunder imbued with the power of Laws..."
Su Xing sighed. Even the slightest trace of the Laws in the thunder was more than he could currently withstand.
"So, how can I withstand two consecutive bolts of thunder?"
Su Xing pondered thoughtfully.
The only method he could think of was to further enhance his Protective Gang Qi to Great Perfection!
Protective Gang Qi at Great Perfection, coupled with Origin Force at the third stage of Great Perfection, was already the limit for Su Xing's current realm.
"What a pity, I thought I could succeed in one go..."
Su Xing sighed again.
He muttered about the horrific, adverse conditions within the space in the belly of the giant beast.
Ordinary cultivators at the Great Perfection of Divine Strength Realm only need to release their Origin Force to form an armor of Origin Force to break their limits.
Because their bodily limits are lower, the extreme environments they need to break through are much safer.
But with a solid foundation like Su Xing's, he requires an even more extreme environment to break his own limits.
"If I could break through my limits in such an extreme place, maybe after advancing to the Broken Void Realm, my combat power could directly match that of cultivators in the middle or even late stages of the Broken Void, right?"
Su Xing had some craving in his heart.
"I'll try once more, this time I'll train my Protective Gang Qi to Great Perfection... If I still can't withstand the successive thunderbolts... then I'll settle for the next best thing..."
That's what Su Xing resolved in his heart.
His gaze turned towards the rewards on the simulation panel.
[Elixir of Longevity]: Purple Talent, priced at 1 million energy points.
[Ten Years of Alchemy Experience]: Alchemy insights, including the understanding of crafting the Rebirth Pill at Great Perfection level, priced at 5 million energy points.

[Protective Gang Qi (Mahayana Level)]: Origin Force Divine Skill, Mahayana level Protective Gang Qi, invulnerability within three feet of Gang Qi, as long as the Gang Qi remains unbroken, the person remains unharmed, not far from complete mastery of Divine Skills, priced at 50 million simulation energy.
[Heavenly Thunder Physique (Incomplete)]: Enduring the baptism of heavenly thunder, tempered by the power of the Thunder Laws, the body contains the ultimate power of thunder, naturally possessing a high sensitivity to the thunder element, a chance to form the special Five Elements Spiritual Root - Thunder Spiritual Root, slightly enhancing cultivation aptitude and the physical body, priced at 50 million energy.
After seeing the rewards for the simulation, a glint of light flashed in Su Xing's eyes.
"Heavenly Thunder Physique!?"
"Could it be, this is the benefit I could get after undergoing the baptism of thunder?"
Su Xing was slightly excited as he looked at the description of the Heavenly Thunder Physique.
Indeed, after the baptism of thunder, Su Xing would indeed reap additional rewards.
"To enhance the physical body and the speed of cultivation, as well as affinity with thunder elements... and even, the potential to comprehend the Thunder Spiritual Root!"
Su Xing was amazed.
It is known that the Five Elements Spiritual Roots, consisting of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
The Five Elements Spiritual Roots each have their strengths and weaknesses, and are the most common types of Spiritual Roots.
However, beyond the Five Elements, there are special Spiritual Roots, like the Thunder Spiritual Root!
The strongest aspect of the Thunder Spiritual Root is its ultimate destructive power!
