Jian and Song Yu have helped the seed absorb the equal amounts of Thunder element and fire element by the first two strikes of the tribulation.
The clouds for the third strike is gathering, so Jian had told Song Yu to eat low-grade spirit fruit to replenish the Qi. After five, the clouds stopped collecting, and the third strike was ready to fall.
Song Yu got ready, but Jian was relaxed because he knew that she would need some time to get hold of the third strike. So he stood in his position and checked the fire element core and the tree.
He saw the fire element core and saw that more than forty per cent of the element was remaining, so he didn't know if the third strike would be enough.
After checking the core, he looked at the tree and was shocked. Because he didn't expect the tree to have grown to such heights, he was speechless after seeing the tree.
He then activated the Star Gaze and saw that the wood element core had wholly assimilated with the tree, and it was holding on to the remaining ten per cent of the wood element.
He then saw the tree with the Star Gaze and looked at the leaves. He was able to see the two colours completely balanced, and when he concentrated, he found a hint of purple on matured leaves.
But one thing confused Jian, and once again, he focused on using Star Gaze, but he was still confused. As he was about to ask the system, he saw that Song Yu attempted to control the Thunder.
So he kept it aside and focused, and going back and forth for ten minutes and having multiple tries, she was able to get control of the third strike.
As he had expected, she took multiple tries to control the strike. As she started to supply the Thunder element, Jian felt the detail was doubled, so he increased the amount of fire Qi.
After a few minutes, they adjusted to a balanced amount. As the elements deflated, growth ceased, and the fire element cores element decreased at astonishing speed.
Jian was shocked, but when he saw the amount of Thunder element was generating, he understood. They kept their concentration throughout the process.
The third strike of the tribulation continued for more than fifty minutes. But when they reached the mark of thirty minutes, the fire element core was exhausted, so Jian stopped supplying his Qi.
Song Yu also stopped supplying the Thunder element. For the next twenty minutes, Song Yu would control the Thunder and disperse it in the atmosphere.
Now every process was done. Only 0ne process was remaining, and that was helping the tree survive the tribulation. As all cores have been absorbed, they only have to wait for the tree to mature itself.
Song Yu have completely dispersed the third strike of the tribulation. She then sat down and recovered while Jian took her place and sat down to prepare for the fourth strike of the problem.
Now they only have to survive the tribulation, and they will get the Thunder Fire Spirit Fruit. As Jian was recovering, the Qi in the surrounding was restless. The formation was continuously absorbing the Qi, and the tree was growing.
Now that they have stopped supplying the element, the theory colours on leaves are starting to merge. As the formation is absorbing the Qi, the tree has reached its peak and is nows going into its maturity period.
After the third strike, there were ten minutes of break. Because the fourth strike will be a lot stronger, so it needed time to gather the clouds.
Now Jian was going to take the next three strikes. He doesn't have any plan. He has decided to go head-on. However, he has thought to use the Thunder body tempering technique.
But the system said that it would be of no use to him. And the technique is of lower grade, so he shouldn't think of learning it. Otherwise, the balance of the elements he has would collapse.
He agreed to systems suggestions; he understood that if the balance is destroyed, it will take more time for them to balance. So he had decided to meet the tribulation head-on.
They have left the tree alone; now, they only have to help it survive the tribulation. The following strikes are going to be at the core of the formation. So Jian had to come in between them to protect the tree.
Time passed, the clouds also have stopped gathering. Jian opened his eyes and stood up. He looked up in the sky; he was shocked to see the clouds because the clouds were gathered in the doubled amount of the third strike.
Jian understood that that the fourth strike was going to be twice more potent than the third strike. He took out his Saber and got ready to jump as the tribulation struck.
As flying is not allowed in the tomb. Jian only has to anger the heavens, and the tribulation would start to target him instead of the tree. The system has suggested attacking in the direction of the sky when the problems start.
Suddenly clouds started to rumble; Jian immediately knew that the tribulation would begin as he expected in a few minutes, the fourth strike if the trial fell.
As it was targeting the tree, Jian immediately jumped between them. As soon as he jumped, he started to perform the Thunder Guiding Strike technique.
Even though he couldn't use the technique, he still understood the basics behind it. So he just wanted to survive the tribulation, so he was going to use any method.
The technique was not going to work as it worked for Song Yu bit Jian to change the flow. Still, the tribulation was falling near the tree. Now that the flow had changed, Jian started to gather the Thunder element in his Saber.
Now he was going to perform the whole basic techniques of Saber against the tribulation. He was going to use the Thunder element to fight against the problem.
He didn't waste much time, and in a few minutes, when he felt he couldn't control the Thunder, he started to attack the sky. While attack he was using his full strength.
Even though he couldn't disperse the tribulation, he was changing the direction. He continued to do that, and after five minutes. The clouds rumbled, and Jian smiled.
The system also informed him that the heavens are angered, and now Jian is the target. He immediately moved away from the tree, and the clouds followed him.
The tribulation continued to fall on him, and he continued to change the direction of the problem. It continued for the same amount of time as the trip strike. And in between, the clouds have rumbled multiple times, and after each rumble, the strength of the tribulation was increased.
Even though he continued for the same amount of time as the third strike, the destruction caused by it was twice the amount of the third strike.
When the clouds dispersed, Jian immediately took a healing pill and ate spirit fruits. He was recovering for the next strike. The tree leaves have completely turned purple, and the tree also has stopped growing.
But it is still absorbing the Qi. Now the tree has reached its maturity. Now it just has blossomed, and then the flower can turn into fruits.
The clouds were gathering, and the amount was twice the fourth strike. Jian was focused entirely on recovering while Song Yu was back in top condition.
When the fifth strike fell, Jian was going to a similar attain, but this time, Song Yu will also help. While he would continue to change the direction, Song Yu would try to control the tribulation.
It doesn't matter if she can control the whole thing. Whenever she would feel that she couldn't handle more, then she would use the controlled Thunder element to attack the tribulation.
This was decided at the last minute because if Jian couldn't change the direction couldn't even try to control the Thunder. It entirely depends on Jian.
Fifteen minutes passed, and the clouds stopped gathering. The fifth strike was going to fall, so Jian also stood up and got ready. He looked at the tree and then towards the sky.
The fifth strikes clouds were gathered upon the tree, so he checked where the tribulation would descend. As he had expected, it landed on the tree; he immediately jumped between them.
Ad he jumped, he heard the clouds rumble. He knew that he had angered the heavens. He moved away from the tree after checking that the clouds were following him.
He did the same process as before, but since the fifth strike was full use, the burden was more. While changing the direction massive cluster of Thunder fell on Jian, and he was injured.. He even spat mouthfuls of blood.
