"Beginning to practice the Explosive Spirit Technique!"
After a while, Luren closed his eyes and began to practice.
He quickly familiarized himself with the Explosive Spirit Technique and then started to cultivate it.
In Luren's body, the Qi of the two Lingbo's were activated and condensed into a vortex, trembling vigorously.
Soon, the two vortices directly dissipated.
"Let's try again!"
Luren continued to attempt it.
The merging of the Lingbo's Qi, once failed, the Qi would scatter, making him more prone to hunger and in need of consuming Spirit Stones.
The cultivation of the Explosive Spirit Technique also consumed Qi at a terrifying rate.
However, he didn't care, as he had thirteen lower-grade Spirit Stones, which should be enough for him to cultivate the Explosive Spirit Technique.
As time passed, Luren became more proficient in condensing the Qi of the two Lingbos into a vortex.
In the fifth year, Luren condensed a massive vortex in his body, without any signs of collapse.
A powerful Qi wave suddenly erupted from the vortex, impacting Luren's whole body.
Uh!
Luren groaned, feeling an astonishing force.
This force had already far exceeded four thousand kilograms of power.
"Just merging two Lingbos can produce a force of over four thousand kilograms!"
At this moment, Luren's face was covered in sweat, but his eyes showed a look of surprise.
The Qi of the two Lingbos finally successfully merged.
Next, Luren began to try merging the third Lingbo.
Initially, Luren thought that the more Lingbos he merged, the more difficult it would become.
But he found that merging the third Lingbo was easier than he expected.
In less than five years, Luren successfully merged the third Lingbo.
Encouraged by this success, Luren proceeded to merge the Qi of all five Lingbos within his body.
At this moment, a massive vortex was rapidly spinning inside Luren's body, about the size of a fist.
"Ha!"
Luren shouted loudly, and the Qi within the vortex exploded, flowing into his right fist, which he then fiercely punched out.
Boom!
The sound of breaking through the air resounded, and a terrifying force swept out in waves.
"The power of this punch is at least ten thousand kilograms!"
Luren was completely shocked.
A force of ten thousand kilograms is equivalent to that of a warrior with ten Lingbos opened, excluding his own strength. Even if a warrior with ten Lingbos opened fought against Luren, he would not be his match.
"It's a pity that all the Spirit Stones have been consumed. If I had a few more lower-grade Spirit Stones, perhaps I could merge the sixth Lingbo!"
Luren said.
After coming out of the Nameless Pagoda's space, Luren began to observe the eight portals and then chose the "Kan" portal.
As Luren walked into the "Kan" portal!
Boom!
Luren's body was filled with brilliant divine light, and the void changed, instantly appearing in another world. Before him was a vast ocean, with towering waves sweeping in all directions!
"Are all these portals a test?" Luren's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Rumble!
At that moment, within the ocean, turbulent waves surged and rolled towards Luren continuously.
Boom!
As the waves crashed against his body, Luren immediately felt a tremendous force pressing down on him, but it did not cause any harm.
"If I hadn't cultivated my Qi and tempered my body, I would probably have a hard time withstanding this impact!" Luren thought, amazed, allowing the waves to hit him.
It was then that Luren finally realized that he was still within the Eight Trigrams Altar, surrounded by eight portals, with seven of them shining brilliantly.
Undoubtedly, entering the other seven portals would lead to the next trial.
Luren mobilized the power of the seven Lingbos within his body and charged towards the successive waves. He finally reached the "Li" portal and directly entered it.
Boom!
Luren once again found himself in another altar. Flames burned intensely around the altar, hot and blazing.
Roar, roar, roar!
Suddenly, from the blazing flames around him, magma giants emerged, their crimson eyes locking onto Luren and charging towards him.
However, these magma giants were not very strong, at most opening seven Lingbo. For an ordinary warrior at the Ling Opening Realm, they would not be able to pass this trial.
"Kill!"
Luren's eyes were sharp, filled with fighting spirit as he wielded the Fire Spirit Sword and attacked.
With a fierce sword strike, he pierced through one of the magma giants, instantly shattering it.
Luren, wielding his sword, displayed an unparalleled mastery of swordsmanship, using the Heavenly Sword Technique with five flawless moves.
Regardless of the number of magma giants, they couldn't get close to Luren.
Swish!
Luren rushed to the edge of the altar, using the Storm and Rain technique to disperse the flames before charging into another portal.
"The Zhen Gate!"
This is a world of thunder, where the sky constantly sends down lightning bolts, and once struck, it either kills or wounds.
With his agile and powerful body, and the complete Spirit Cat Step, Lu Ren also successfully passed the test and entered the next gate.
Each of the Eight Trigram gateways contains a new world, and each test is nearly impossible for ordinary Qi cultivation realm warriors to complete. Many young fighters, who have opened all eight Spirit Orifices, end up getting trapped in the altar, seriously injured, and then automatically transported out of the Tuoshe Cave Mansion.
However, Lu Ren's speed in passing the tests was extremely fast.
The fourth gate, the "Gen" gate, was a world of continuous mountain ranges. Massive mountains descended from the sky towards Lu Ren, but with his absolute strength, he shattered those mountains and easily passed the test.
The fifth gate, the "Xun" gate, was a world of violent storms, with winds that felt like razor blades sweeping across Lu Ren's body. Fortunately, his strong physique and Qi refining enabled him to breeze through the storm.
Similarly, Lu Ren passed through the "Dui" gate with ease!
Boom!
In one go, Lu Ren successfully passed through six gates and directly entered the "Kun" gate.
At this moment, Lu Ren was unaware that every scene of his challenges had been closely observed by those outside. He had now entered the "Qian" gate!
The next moment, he felt himself entering a realm that was ethereal and empty, with a vast expanse of white all around him, and the eight gates had all disappeared.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Suddenly, streams of red light converged and transformed into giant ferocious beasts. These beasts were similar to lions, with the head of a unicorn, the tail of a beast, and a body like a dragon. There were a total of eight ferocious beasts, emitting a breath similar to his own.
At the same time, a faint voice echoed once again, saying, "For the Qian gate test, endure for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. If you can still stand after that time, you will pass the test and be teleported to the Tuoshe Square to face the ultimate test!"
"The Qian gate test has been activated 1,300 times in total. Passing only thirty times, it is the most challenging among the eight gates!"
The voice was deep and resonant, exactly the same as when the cave was opened.
"The most challenging among the eight gates?" Lu Ren's thoughts had just landed when cracks sounded. The Tuoshe fire beasts began to move, their eyes burning like flames, roaring ferociously as they lunged towards Lu Ren.
