Ji Haoyuan bathed in the lightning of the Dao.

The light of the Star Battle Body on his body rapidly dimmed.

But visible to the naked eye, a drop of impurity was slowly being expelled from both him and the Flowing Flame Profound Yellow Spear.

The Golden Core within his body also seemed to have undergone a baptism from this lightning, and faintly, the shadow of a twelfth Dao Pattern appeared.

Boom!

But at this moment, in the sky, a Thunder Dragon roared.

It was as if an Ancient Thunder God, wielding a Thunder Spear, was fiercely crashing down on Ji Haoyuan!

This was the fifth Celestial Tribulation!

Its power was so intense, its force so strong, that even the expression on Master Binghuo's pretty face changed drastically from afar.

"Not good!"

At this moment, even she felt an immense trepidation in her heart.

Without doubt, she, even with no corresponding Tribulation Treasures, would be at risk of falling.

From such a distance, just observing the Tribulation was enough to give her such feelings, let alone Ji Haoyuan who was immersed in it, experiencing it all personally.

He had not expected that after the fourth Celestial Tribulation, there would actually be a fifth.

One must know, that during a regular Golden Core Tribulation, there were at most only two Heavenly Thunders.

And he was already at the fifth Celestial Tribulation.

Would there be a sixth Celestial Tribulation after this?

Ji Haoyuan contemplated, but his hands showed no hesitation.

He held a golden fruit in his hand, resembling a golden pearl.

It was another Tribulation Avoiding Spiritual Object that Master Binghuo had exchanged for him.

Tribulation Avoiding Golden Fruit.

Without any hesitation, he swallowed this fruit in one gulp.

Boom!

Almost simultaneously with swallowing the Tribulation Avoiding Golden Fruit, the fifth Heavenly Thunder landed on him.

Crackling—

In an instant, innumerable lightning bolts splattered from Ji Haoyuan's body.

But these lightning bolts did not harm him in the slightest; they merely furiously eroded away the golden halo emanating from his body surface.

However, the speed of this golden halo's reduction seemed a bit too fast.

Soon enough, he would have to face the remaining power of the Celestial Tribulation himself.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan quickly took out a few pills from his body and swallowed them.

He then adjusted his condition to the best state.

Boom!

Just as he finished doing this, the layer of golden halo on his body had entirely disappeared.

Immediately after, a force of remaining thunder, even fiercer than before, descended straight onto his body.

In an instant, the light of his Star Battle Body extinguished rapidly.

The terrifying destructive power of the Celestial Tribulation ravaged his body crazily.

His hands and feet quickly carbonized and then turned into flying ash and vanished.

Next, his body began to burn fiercely, as if it was undergoing the burning of tribulation fire, intent on reducing him to ashes.

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan clearly felt death approaching.

Indeed.

The Celestial Tribulation of a super-grade Golden Core was not easy to survive.

Despite being seriously injured, Ji Haoyuan's expression did not change in the slightest.

On the contrary, in this extreme environment, he entered a profound and mysterious state of realization.

Soon, strands of blue lightning arcs began to flicker on his body.

Then, those blue lightning arcs transformed into an ocean, explosively bursting open!

It was precisely the Wood Heaven Thunder that he comprehended in this short time!

As it is often said, extreme destruction harbors vitality.

Ji Haoyuan precisely captured that spiritual light in the void, transforming destruction into vitality, and furthermore mastering this thunder technique that combines destruction and vitality.

Wood Heaven Thunder!

Most importantly, after this tribulation, the Golden Core originally in his Dantian, which had only eleven Dao Patterns, had now turned into twelve!

Twelve-grade super-grade Golden Core!

Boom!

With Ji Haoyuan surviving that Celestial Tribulation, the tribulation clouds in the sky roiled even more violently.

Faintly, it seemed as if a sixth Celestial Tribulation was about to descend.

If so, with Ji Haoyuan's current condition, it would be impossible to survive.

However, a certain mysterious rule seemed to descend from the void, causing the brewing sixth Heavenly Thunder in the tribulation clouds to reluctantly dissipate.

Along with the ink-black tribulation clouds.

Splash—

The sky returned to clarity.

Simultaneously, an ethereal sound of the Dao seemed to echo in the void.

Then colorful glows rose up.

Drops of rain, flashing with Spirit Light, slowly appeared above Ji Haoyuan's head, falling towards his body.

This was the reward from heaven and earth for those who successfully crossed the tribulation.

In the sparkling Spirit Light of each raindrop, there existed an immensely dense amount of Life Essence Qi.

Ji Haoyuan's heavily damaged and broken body began to heal immediately after receiving the nourishment of those Spirit Light raindrops.

His charred hands and feet regrew anew.

The entire aura and Magical Power of him soared like a rainbow, penetrating through the sky.

At this moment, he had completely achieved the state of the Golden Core!

Clang!

A resounding spear cry suddenly echoed in the air.

Then, the Flowing Flame Profound Yellow Spear, with a body like Glazed, its surface flickered with flame-like patterns, and traces of yellow light circulated incessantly within, landed in front of him.

"Hmm..."

Ji Haoyuan grabbed hold of this Magical Treasure, connected to his heart.

To be precise, it should still be a Magical Treasure embryo.

But, after experiencing two rounds of Celestial Tribulations, its power and quality were no less than any Magical Treasure.

However, an embryo is ultimately an embryo.

Eventually, a method needs to be found to refine it into a true Lifebound Magical Treasure.

Only, with the current quality of the Flowing Flame Profound Yellow Spear, refining it into a true Lifebound Magical Treasure will require Evil Qi Crystals of the corresponding attribute.

This thing, it seems, is not that easy to obtain.

Well, this can be addressed in the future.

In contemplation, Ji Haoyuan had absorbed all the Spirit Light raindrops that had fallen.

Not only did it heal the injuries he had previously suffered, but it also faintly increased the amount of Magical Power within him.

Once I completely consolidate today's realm, just in terms of Magical Power, I may already surpass an average mid-Golden Core cultivator.

One must know, after a cultivator ascends to the Golden Core stage, the Liquid Magical Power transforms into Solid True Essence Magical Power.

Each advancement is extremely difficult, requiring either long years of arduous cultivation or extremely precious Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

Generally speaking, advancing from early Golden Core stage to mid-Golden Core stage through mere cultivation alone is deemed impossible without at least four hundred years.

And how much is the lifespan of a Golden Core cultivator?

A mere six hundred years.

Subtracting the years before breaking through to Golden Core, the actual lifespan after breakthrough is only around four to five hundred years.

There is still mid to late Golden Core stage and the complete Golden Core.

That cannot solely be achieved through cultivation alone.

However, right now, Ji Haoyuan had just broken through, and he already possesses almost the Magical Power of a typical mid-Golden Core cultivator.

This is absolutely an unbelievable feat to speak of.
