Chapter 56: New Entries for Kung Fu, the Sage’s Great Aspiration

Chapter 56: New Cultivation Technique Trait, Saint’s Grand Vow

At this moment.

Above the Immortal Cave where the Inner Sect Disciples resided, tribulation clouds gathered from all directions, forming a vortex-like lightning storm center, with faint green and purple electric lights flickering within the clouds, like Dragons soaring through.

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within several kilometers became agitated, and the plants swayed without wind.

“Holy crap, it’s a Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation! He summoned the Heavenly Tribulation.”

The Inner Sect Disciples watching the show were all dumbfounded.

One by one, they quickly fled their Immortal Caves.

Moving away from the range of the tribulation lightning.

The Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation was no joke.

It was the first trial of Heaven and Earth for Cultivators.

If one successfully Underwent Tribulation, they could advance to the Golden Core Stage, where their fate was in their own hands, not in the heavens.

Failure meant death and the scattering of their Dao.

Once involved, they would also be forced to endure the baptism of the Heavenly Tribulation.

This was simply terrifying.

What Cultivation Technique was this Jiang Li Cultivating? He could actually summon Golden Core Tribulation Lightning out of thin air. This was too frightening.

The Inner Sect Disciples, who had fled several hundred meters away, stared at Jiang Li with horror on their faces, feeling a lingering fear as if they had escaped a disaster.

At the same time.

Within Tianxuan Holy Land.

Elders at the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage from all sides also noticed the anomaly here.

They ascended to the sky one after another.

Their faces showed confusion.

“Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation? There are only a few Inner Sect Disciples who are confident in Undergoing the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation. Who made a Breakthrough? Don’t they know that Undergoing Tribulation requires going into a specialized tribulation-undergoing array?”

“Perhaps it was an emotional Breakthrough, and they couldn’t control it for a moment. We’ll know if we go and see.”

Elder Xingfa Cui Yan also looked up, his face full of doubt.

That location seemed to be the direction Jiang Li had just pursued.

He didn’t think the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation was caused by Jiang Li, but rather was worried that Jiang Li would be caught in it.

Within the Heavenly Tribulation’s range, the tribulation lightning would not distinguish targets, but would treat everyone equally.

Moreover, the more people there were, the stronger the power of the tribulation lightning would be.

This was a precious treasure of their Law Enforcement Hall, and even a Saint candidate. It wouldn’t be good if he got hurt.

…

On the other side.

Under the tribulation clouds.

Morning Light was sweating profusely, his feet rooted to the ground, completely unwilling to move an inch.

No other reason.

He had already been locked onto by the Golden Core Tribulation Lightning.

He couldn’t escape at all.

MAD.

This was truly a Heavenly Tribulation. This monster could actually summon tribulation lightning. If he had known that this Jiang Li was an even greater Prodigy than Murong Qing, he shouldn’t have just sent Tang Qi over, but risked sending a Golden Core Stage Elder.

“Senior Brother Jiang, do you know what you’re doing? I have no grievances with you; I just stood up for my Junior Brother. Are you trying to kill me? I can take a step back and pretend I didn’t see what happened today.”

Morning Light said angrily.

He couldn’t afford not to back down; the Golden Core Tribulation Lightning was too intimidating for him.

With his current foundation, the probability of him passing the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation was less than 30%.

Jiang Li didn’t speak.

His body, managed by the Cultivation Technique, was still communicating with the Heavenly Tribulation.

Foolish child, who’s playing a scary little game with you here? This dog Cultivation Technique wants you dead.

Jiang Li thought to himself.

The Cultivation Technique, the “Supreme Divine Thunder Induction Heart Sutra,” after Fusion and sublimation, had become even more extreme. It could not tolerate evil in its eyes. Upon seeing truly heinous individuals, it was no longer satisfied with just exposing them, but wanted to annihilate them.

One could only say that this Morning Light was unlucky.

He didn’t encounter it earlier or later, but precisely during the Cultivation Technique’s patrol mode.

It’s just…

The commotion was too great.

Summoning tribulation lightning and killing an Inner Sect Disciple—either of these actions would cause a huge sensation in Tianxuan Holy Land.

And he had done both.

His reputation was soaring.

Few Outer Sect Disciples didn’t know him by now, and he estimated that it would soon be the same for the Inner Sect Disciples.

Who’s an undercover agent that everyone knows about?

Seeing Jiang Li remain silent, Morning Light’s anger deepened.

Taking a step back wasn’t enough; was he expected to apologize?

Damn it.

Electrifying his Junior Brother right in front of him, and still expecting him to apologize? This was too much bullying. He hadn’t been this overbearing even in the Demonic Path.

“Senior Brother Jiang, let’s both take a step back…”

Before he could finish his sentence.

Jiang Li moved.

His stern expression was like the will of Heaven and Earth, showing no mercy. His finger pressed down heavily.

The next second.

A thick, green-purple tribulation lightning descended.

The sky was pierced, shattering like a mirror. A dazzling green light, carrying immense Heavenly Might, struck directly.

It illuminated Morning Light’s face, making it glow white.

At this moment.

Morning Light was utterly terrified.

He had never imagined that Jiang Li was actually serious.

His previous actions weren’t to force him to apologize, but to gather power.

It truly echoed the saying: “I’m waiting for my cooldown, what are you waiting for?”

Boom—

A violent clap of thunder exploded in the ears of the Inner Sect Disciples.

They saw a lightning pillar as thick as a bucket engulf Morning Light completely. All that remained in their sight was a blinding white light. When their vision returned, a charred corpse lay on the ground.

Instantly.

The entire scene was dead silent.

Dead.

An Inner Sect Disciple ranked in the top thirty, a Cultivator at Foundation Establishment Perfection, had died just like that at the hands of a Disciple who had just entered Foundation Establishment.

The biggest reason was that Morning Light was unprepared, resisting the Heavenly Tribulation with his Physical Body.

Secondly, Jiang Li was able to summon Golden Core Tribulation Lightning of excessive intensity.

Otherwise, a Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator, even if caught off guard, could never be killed by a Cultivator who had just entered Foundation Establishment.

But regardless, this young man in black robes, who had just entered Foundation Establishment, already possessed the power to threaten Cultivators at Foundation Establishment Perfection.

Not long after.

The Holy Land Elders, including Elder Xingfa Cui Yan, arrived one after another.

Upon seeing the charred corpse on the ground, their expressions all changed dramatically.

Dead?

Too fast.

By the time calculation, this was only the first tribulation lightning, right?

You couldn’t even endure one tribulation lightning, and you dared to advance to the Golden Core Stage?

Who gave you the courage?

“Who triggered the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation?”

An Elder asked with regret.

Upon hearing this.

The Inner Sect Disciples present all pointed at Jiang Li, then quickly withdrew their fingers, seemingly fearing the young man in black robes.

The questioning Elder’s face darkened.

What did they mean?

Did they think he couldn’t sense that the other party was only at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment?

“What’s wrong with you all? How could he, someone at Early Stage Foundation Establishment, attract a Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation?”

The Inner Sect Disciples: We want to know too (shouting)!

“Elder, it was indeed Junior Brother Jiang Li who triggered the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation. He and Senior Brother Morning Light…”

An Inner Sect Disciple recounted the entire incident in detail.

Upon hearing the full story.

Several Holy Land Elders exchanged glances.

What a joke.

Someone who had just entered Foundation Establishment could artificially summon a Heavenly Tribulation, and even kill an Inner Sect Disciple ranked in the top thirty.

This sounded like a story from Tianxuan Ancestor’s tale.

Oh no, even Tianxuan Ancestor wasn’t that amazing.

However, Elder Xingfa Cui Yan’s eyes flashed with surprise.

He stepped forward.

And defended Jiang Li: “All of Jiang Li’s actions were approved by me, and I was the one who instructed him to carry out the evil-sweeping operation. Since he sought out this Morning Light and killed him, it means that the other party’s sins were not as simple as violating Sect rules. This can be fully seen from the performance of the heart-questioning mirror. If Jiang Li were a heinous villain, the heart-questioning mirror would have already left him.”

At this moment.

A prompt appeared before Jiang Li.

“Ding, the Cultivation Technique ‘Supreme Divine Thunder Induction Heart Sutra’ upheld justice and has a clear conscience. It wishes to clear its name. Please enter the dialogue content.”

Jiang Li didn’t hesitate.

He typed directly.

“Elder Cui, do you remember the incident we encountered during the campaign to suppress the Yinkui Sect?”

Cui Yan frowned: “You mean the ambush by the True Disciples of the Yinkui Sect?”

“Exactly. This means there are still Yinkui Sect undercover agents within the Holy Land. And my talent tells me that this Morning Light is precisely an infiltrator from the Yinkui Sect, and his status is not low.”

Cui Yan understood.

An Yinkui Sect undercover agent who tried to ambush Huashen Class Disciples certainly deserved to die.

If Jiang Li hadn’t been there, the Huashen Class Disciples would definitely have suffered losses.

“Go in and search.”

Cui Yan immediately ordered.

The Law Enforcement Hall Disciples swarmed into Morning Light’s Immortal Cave and found a token related to the Yinkui Sect. The aura belonging to Morning Light on the token was clear at a glance.

“Good riddance.”

Cui Yan’s face showed a cold glint.

It seemed that Tianxuan Holy Land’s operation to eliminate the Yinkui Sect’s secret strongholds was not deterrent enough. They hadn’t scared this Demonic Path Sect enough, and they still dared to harbor ill intentions towards their Soul Transformation seeds.

“Jiang Li, you did very well. You eliminated a great hidden danger for the Holy Land. I will apply for military merits for you for this matter. With your ability, a high-level enforcer is not your end goal.”

Upon hearing this.

The Inner Sect Disciples on the scene were greatly surprised.

Not only did publicly killing an Inner Sect Disciple not result in punishment, but he also received a reward and even the approval of the Elder Xingfa, who believed that the position of Law Enforcement Hall Master was within his grasp.

His status was too special.

Even the top-ranked Inner Sect Disciple probably didn’t receive such treatment.

The several Elders present did not speak.

They all had a general understanding of Jiang Li’s identity, knowing that this Asking the Dao Foundation Establishment was the hope of Tianxuan Holy Land, and it was not worth making an enemy of him.

They were discussing another matter.

That was how Jiang Li triggered the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation.

“You can’t just say it’s the talent of a pure heart, can you?”

This Elder, who was transmitting his voice, had clearly presided over the Flying Sword competition and asked curiously.

In response to this.

Cui Yan explained: “Asking the Dao Foundation Establishment is just like that. You are not, so you don’t understand.”

…

After clearing his name, the Cultivation Technique’s patrol mode also ended.

The cold, mechanical electronic voice sounded again.

“Ding, the Cultivation Technique ‘Supreme Divine Thunder Induction Heart Sutra’ has completed its first stage of acting on behalf of Heaven to mete out punishment, gaining the recognition of the Heaven and Earth Will, and is satisfied. The belief in justice has been catalyzed, and a new trait has been born.”

“New Trait Added: Oath of Justice.”

“Oath of Justice: Make a vow that the Heaven and Earth Will will respond to. Completing the vow can receive feedback from Heaven and Earth.”

Jiang Li:!

A Saint’s Grand Vow?
