Chapter 294 Alarm
Lingyuan Lake is full of endless stretches of water and swamps. Occasionally there are a few pieces of slightly solid land, but they are all covered with wild grass and there is no sign of human habitation at all.

Zhou Yang flew on his sword at full speed all the way until he had penetrated tens of thousands of miles into the boundless swamp, and then he gradually slowed down.

His powerful spiritual awareness was constantly scanning the surroundings. While searching for a suitable place to transcend the tribulation, he was also carefully guarding against any potential dangers.

Poisonous insects and poisonous barriers can be found everywhere in Lingyuan Marsh. If one is not careful, even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage will suffer great losses.

Zhou Yang is about to pass the tribulation, so he naturally has to be extra cautious.

During the seven years he lived in Jinyang Sect, he constantly practiced the Three Souls and Nine Refinements, and his soul realm improved rapidly.

Although his current true cultivation level is only at the peak of the Liuxing Star (Nascent Soul Stage), his soul realm has long since reached a level comparable to the middle stage of the Kongming Stage, so the range covered by his spiritual consciousness is extremely large.

Not long after, he found a suitable place to transcend the tribulation.

It was a solid land that was more than dozens of miles long and wide. The entire land was extremely flat and open. If there was any unexpected danger approaching, he would be able to discover it in time. Moreover, the surrounding continuous lakes of water formed a faint cloud and fog barrier formation. With just a slight change, it could form a large cloud and fog barrier formation, which should be of unknown help in overcoming the heavenly calamity.

This world exaggerates the horrors of the sixty-nine great heavenly tribulations and the ninety-nine heavy tribulations, so Zhou Yang did not dare to take it lightly.

He quickly landed on the solid grass, and after a brief exploration, he immediately began to make arrangements.

He took out pieces of strange crystal stones that sparkled with various colors of light from his storage bracelet, and then quickly placed them in various locations on the grassland according to a special formation. Even the pools of water around the grassland were within the placement range.

Previously in the Devouring Universe, whether it was the silver token space inheritance obtained by Zhou Yang or the Duandong River inheritance obtained by Luo Feng, they both contained a lot of information about formations.

Although the rules of the two worlds are different, with a little reference, Zhou Yang can easily transform many formations suitable for this world.

This strange cloud and mist barrier formation is one of the defensive formations he figured out. As long as there are strong enough formation materials and energy supply, this strange cloud and mist barrier formation can even withstand the combined attack of masters in the Void and Darkness stage!
Unfortunately, Zhou Yang now has limited resources and can only use some of the most common attribute crystals to set up an array. It would be good enough if he could barely block an attack from a Dongxu master.

But I think it should be no problem to help him deal with one or two heavenly tribulations.

Soon, the formation bases were set up one by one, waiting for Zhou Yang to inject a trace of true energy to activate the power of the formation.

"The defensive function of the formation will not be activated for the time being. It will not be too late to activate it when the fifth and sixth heavenly thunders descend."

Zhou Yang made up his mind that the initial thunder attack would not be too powerful, and it was not worth using a large formation to resist it.

It would be a good opportunity to use my physical body to resist first, and use the mysterious power contained in the heavenly thunder to temper my physical body.

He remembered that when he went through the 49th heavenly tribulation last time, the mysterious power contained in the heavenly thunder was even able to cause a significant transformation in his genetic level.

The power of the six-nine calamity is more powerful than the forty-nine calamity. I think the mysterious energy contained in it will be even more powerful. I wonder if it can make his genetic level have a greater leap.
“Although it’s called a thunder tribulation, why do I feel a hint of the law of life in it?”

Zhou Yang seemed to have some vague guess in his mind, but this guess still needed more attempts to confirm.

He didn't think any more and just sat cross-legged in the middle of the grass, waiting quietly. Time passed quietly, and more than two months passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the blue sky above Lingyuan Lake, which was originally sunny and bright, suddenly became windy and cloudy.

With Zhou Yang's position as the center, a large number of dark red calamity clouds began to gather madly in the sky within a range of thousands of miles above. The entire sky seemed to have dropped a layer downwards in an instant, becoming depressing and heavy!
Zhou Yang, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and looked up.

"Is it about to begin? I didn't expect the power of the six-nine heavenly tribulation to be so terrifying. The tribulation cloud actually covers an area of ​​thousands of miles. I hope there won't be any complications."

Zhou Yang stood up and focused all his attention on the heavenly tribulation.

A strong wind suddenly arose, and immediately, waves began to surge in the surrounding waters.

And in the dark red sky, there were countless electric snakes flying.

suddenly--

"call out!"

It was as if the sound of someone inhaling was heard in the sky, and suddenly the strong wind disappeared. The sound of the surrounding waves also calmed down very quickly. In just a moment, the entire area around the tribulation place became unusually quiet.

And all the lightning has disappeared, because in just a breath of time, all the lightning was completely absorbed into the calamity cloud!
At this moment, the color of the originally dark red calamity cloud deepened further and turned into an almost purple-black color. A suffocating and terrifying power was constantly brewing in the purple-black calamity cloud. Just a slight sensation could make people's hearts palpitate!
"The purple-black calamity cloud, and the speed at which it absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transforms it is so fast. It seems that the power of my 69th Heavenly Calamity is not small."

Zhou Yang made an instant judgment in his mind.

He read a lot of "miscellaneous books" in Jinyang Sect, many of which described the scenes of Jinyang Sect's predecessors overcoming tribulations. With just a brief comparison, he realized that the power of his own tribulation was probably far greater than that of the ancestors of Jinyang Sect.

However, despite this, there was not the slightest fear in his heart.

Today, his soul realm is comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of Kongming. Due to his practice of the "Star Transformation" technique, his body is constantly tempered by the power of the stars in this world, and is far superior to that of an ordinary late Nascent Soul cultivator.

Coupled with the experience and secret techniques of devouring the world that he had mastered, if even he could not survive the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations, then the power of this heavenly tribulation would be too terrifying.

“Come on, let me feel how powerful the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations that countless cultivators fear are!”

Zhou Yang looked at the calamity clouds that were gathering in the sky, and an eager look appeared on his face.

While Zhou Yang was concentrating on preparing for the impending heavenly tribulation, at the bottom of a lake nearly a thousand miles away from the place where Zhou Yang was going to endure the tribulation, a white-faced young man wrapped in a black robe, exuding a sinister and evil aura, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hmm? The fluctuations of the heavenly tribulation, someone is going through the tribulation around my hiding place?"
