Chapter 40: What Cultivation Method, I Don’t Have It!

  Transtor: Anubis Transtions

  Elder Liu quickly walked outside, looked up at the sky, and seeing nothing unusual, he turned to Gu Feng with a strange expression.

  "Tell me, how did you sense the Heavenly Tribution?"

  "Uh—" Gu Feng also looked up at the sky for a while, imitating Elder Liu, but he was momentarily at a loss for words.

  How could he expin it? The moment he reached the peak of Body Refinement, a warning appeared in his mind, as if in an ancient nguage. Though he couldn’t understand it, he grasped its meaning.

  But now, with the heavens and earth showing no signs of disturbance, he began to doubt himself.

  "It’s just a feeling, I can’t expin it clearly!" Gu Feng scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

  "Kid, were you drunk st night? Your Myriad Tributions Physique will only face its first Heavenly Tribution when breaking through from the Postnatal Realm to the Innate Realm. How could it happen now?" Elder Liu gnced at him, chuckling.

  "Let’s wait and see. Maybe I’m special, different from what’s recorded in the ancient texts."

  Seeing Gu Feng’s resolute expression, Elder Liu shook his head with a wry smile. "You just wait here. When you’re tired, come in for some tea."

  An hour passed quickly. Gu Feng stared bnkly at the sky, feeling the sensation of the Heavenly Tribution growing stronger, yet there were no signs of it.

  "Kid, is there a treasure in the sky?"

  Before long, Elder Wu arrived. Seeing Gu Feng staring intently at the sky, he asked in surprise, "What are you waiting for?"

  "I’m waiting... for the rain!" Gu Feng replied without turning his head.

  After such a long time with no Heavenly Tribution appearing, Gu Feng began to think he might have been too drunk st night, his mind still hazy.

  "What’s so interesting about rain?"

  "If it really rains, I’ll have to hurry back to collect my clothes!"

  "You’re out of your mind!" Elder Wu ughed and cursed, then walked straight into the Hall of Elders, sitting opposite Elder Liu and leisurely sipping tea.

  "Did Gu Feng hurt his brain during the battle on the Wind and Cloud Ptform yesterday?"

  "He’s waiting for the Heavenly Tribution. Who knows? We’ll check on him ter."

  "..."

  By noon, just as Gu Feng began to suspect something was wrong with his body, the clear sky suddenly turned dark with thick clouds.

  Lightning fshed on the horizon, and the sound of thunder rumbled from afar.

  "Gu Feng, you were right! It’s going to rain. Aren’t you going back to collect your clothes?" Elder Wu shouted towards Gu Feng in the outer sect.

  "The Heavenly Tribution... it’s coming!"

  Gu Feng trembled, quickly running over to the two elders, shouting in arm.

  Elder Liu was about to say something when a sudden, overwhelming aura of destruction froze the smile on his face. He fshed outside, looking at the sky’s anomaly, his face pale.

  "It’s... it’s really the Heavenly Tribution!"

  "Not good! Find a pce for him to face the tribution!" Elder Wu also came out, looking at the ink-bck sky filled with lightning and arcs of thunder, roaring.

  The legendary Heavenly Tribution, containing the ws of the Great Dao, possessed the power to destroy the world, a camity reserved for the mighty.

  Before this, they had only read about it in ancient texts. Now, witnessing the real Heavenly Tribution, they were instantly panicked.

  The rumbling in the heavens grew louder, like a heavy drum being struck by a god, rhythmic and heart-pounding.

  The unusual commotion armed the entire outer sect, and even inner sect disciples stood on high pces, gazing at the scene.

  "What’s going on? How could the Myriad Tributions Physique attract a Heavenly Tribution while breaking through to the Qi Refining Realm?"

  "This isn’t how it’s recorded in ancient texts!"

  "What should we do?"

  "..."

  Gu Feng’s physique was no secret among the outer sect elders.

  But no one expected the Heavenly Tribution to arrive so suddenly. The entire outer sect elder group was in chaos.

  Some suggested evacuating the disciples, others proposed taking Gu Feng to a nearby mountain range, and still others...

  "Stop arguing! This Heavenly Tribution can’t be too strong. Find an open space and let him face it here!"

  Elder Liu, as the head of the outer sect elders, quickly regained his composure and decided to let Gu Feng face the tribution in the outer sect.

  "Outer sect disciples, listen up! From this moment on, no one is allowed within a mile of the Wind and Cloud Ptform!"

  Elder Liu grabbed Gu Feng and soared into the air, heading swiftly towards the Wind and Cloud Ptform.

  At that moment, two disciples were engaged in a life-and-death battle on the Wind and Cloud Ptform.

  Before they could understand what was happening, they felt their feet leave the ground as they were lifted and thrown far away.

  "It’s Gu Feng. He’s attracting the Heavenly Tribution?" Chu Youhuan, not far from the outer sect, quickly understood the cause of the celestial anomaly.

  Her beautiful face showed a hint of surprise. The next moment, she leaped into the air, flying towards the outer sect. "Why is the Heavenly Tribution coming now? It’s so sudden. He’s not prepared!"

  The inner sect elders of the Sunset Glow Sect appeared, and so did the sect leader.

  They closed their eyes and made a quick deduction, their hearts surging with immense waves, and they too came to the outer sect.

  "Master, what kind of physique does that bastard Gu Feng have?" Qiu Tian, with a gloomy expression, whispered to the old man beside him.

  He hated Gu Feng deeply but couldn’t act against him in the outer sect.

  "The Myriad Tributions Physique, the legendary strongest yet most useless physique!" the old man frowned and said.

  "The Myriad Tributions Physique?" Qiu Tian thought for a moment, then burst into ughter. "So it’s the Myriad Tributions Physique! I should have guessed! Lucky for him, to perish in the Heavenly Tribution."

  Qu Yanran also appeared in the outer sect. She stood on a mountain peak, her eyes glowing with purple light, staring intently at Gu Feng, murmuring, "The heavens and earth are undergoing an unusual change. This era is extraordinary!"

  "Gu Feng!!!"

  Yan Xixi stood in the distance, shouting towards Gu Feng. She finally understood why Chu Youhuan had mentioned the Thunder Tribution Pill yesterday!

  This was what Gu Feng truly needed.

  "The Myriad Tributions Physique? I thought he was some kind of genius, but he’s just a useless physique!"

  "We misjudged him. His strength is only in the initial realms. He has no future."

  "No wonder he’s not afraid of death, daring to confront the Qiu family. He already knew his life would be short!"

  "..."

  Gu Feng paid no attention to the discussions around him.

  He stood on the Wind and Cloud Ptform, calm and composed. He had imagined the arrival of the Heavenly Tribution before and had even feared it, but now that it was here, it seemed just like that.

  "I’ve reached the peak of Body Refinement, my foundation is solid. I will definitely survive this Heavenly Tribution!"

  Looking at the sky filled with lightning, Gu Feng stood tall, filled with boundless confidence.

  A fierce wind rose, whipping up dust from the ground. The thunder above grew louder, making eardrums tingle.

  The aura of destruction spread everywhere, like a tide, continuously expanding.

  The entire sky turned as dark as night.

  Suddenly!

  Crack!

  A bolt of lightning descended from the sky, fshing with a fierce silver light, illuminating the entire Wind and Cloud Ptform!

  It struck directly on Gu Feng’s head. The terrifying Heavenly Tribution even shattered the Wind and Cloud Ptform!

  "This... this is the Heavenly Tribution of the Myriad Tributions Physique?" Elder Liu’s lips trembled as he excimed.

  Just the first bolt of lightning had destroyed the Wind and Cloud Ptform, its power comparable to a full-force strike from a Qi Refining sixth-level cultivator.

  The next few bolts would surely be even more terrifying. Could Gu Feng withstand them?

  Gu Feng, at the center of the Heavenly Tribution, looked at his charred body and felt the tearing pain throughout his body, his face filled with shock.

  The power of the Heavenly Tribution exceeded his expectations. No wonder throughout history, all Myriad Tributions Physiques had perished in the Heavenly Tribution.

  Crack!

  A few breaths ter, an even brighter bolt of lightning descended from the sky.

  Gu Feng crouched, adopting a defensive posture, using his back to withstand the strike. He was directly bsted to the ground.

  "Pfft—"

  A hint of sweetness rose in his throat. Gu Feng swallowed, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face pale.

  "He’s injured!"

  Everyone was shocked. Just yesterday, Gu Feng had fought over thirty Qi Refining disciples without spitting blood.

  Only two bolts of the Heavenly Tribution had injured him, showing its terrifying power.

  "Gu Feng, carefully feel the changes in your body. Activate your cultivation method and open your Dantian!" Elder Liu, seeing Gu Feng merely enduring the strikes, urgently shouted.

  "Cultivation method? What cultivation method? I don’t have one!" Gu Feng also shouted back.

  "What? You don’t know you need a cultivation method to break through to the Qi Refining Realm?" Elder Wu excimed in shock.

  "No one told me. How could I know?"

  To be honest, Gu Feng had been puzzled before. Didn’t cultivation in this world require a method?

  Turns out, it wasn’t needed in the Body Refinement Realm, but to break through to the Qi Refining Realm, a cultivation method was necessary.

  Now, including Elder Liu, everyone was dumbfounded.

  According to the rules of the Sunset Glow Sect, anyone at the ninth level of Body Refinement was eligible to receive the sect’s most basic cultivation method, the "Sunset Glow Dao Scripture"!

  Of course, this "Sunset Glow Dao Scripture" wasn’t the sect’s ultimate method but a simplified version.

  Due to Gu Feng’s special circumstances, Elder Liu thought he was still far from the peak of Body Refinement, and considering common knowledge, he hadn’t reminded him.

  Thus, the current situation arose.

  "Quick, quickly take out the 'Sunset Glow Dao Scripture' for him to see!"

  Elder Liu roared at Elder Wu.

  "I... I don’t have it on me. I’ll recite it for him!"

  "Then hurry up!"

  Thus, an absurd scene unfolded. Elder Wu, standing a kilometer away, loudly recited the "Sunset Glow Dao Scripture" to Gu Feng!

  The originally tense tribution scene became strangely comical, making people want to ugh.

  "Elder Wu, the thunder is too loud. What was the st line you said?"

  "Morning sun... ancient path... heart sinks deep..."

  "Sink deep? How? Do I need to squat or something?"

  "No, it’s about intention. Do you understand intention?"

  "Then if I sit down, will it work better?"

  "You... it’s not about sitting or not. The key is..."

  "Then I’ll lie down and cultivate..."

  Amid their amusing conversation, the third bolt of lightning descended fiercely!
