This Nascent Soul Tribulation unexpectedly lasted for a full three months!
"Open!"
A figure suddenly opened its eyes wide, a terrifying gleam bursting forth, summoning an ancient, austere bronze cauldron to face the unstoppable lightning calamity!
"Clang——!"
A deafening noise echoed through the sky!
The bronze cauldron only held on for a single breath before being shattered into pieces by the purple lightning!
"Pfft——!"
The figure was hit as if by a heavy hammer, spitting out a mouthful of blood against the flow, its aura instantly withered significantly.
However, this was only the beginning.
In the sky above, even more terrifying tribulation clouds were madly gathering and surging, brewing a fatal strike.
"True Man Ye!"
In the distance, on a magnificent flying boat, several disciples of the Lingyin Sect, looking at the horrifying scene before them, all showed expressions of despair.
"True Man’s life-bound magical treasure is destroyed. I’m afraid... afraid he can’t withstand this final blow..."
A young disciple said, his voice trembling.
"Shut up!"
A tender, slightly immature voice shouted suddenly.
A beautiful young girl with golden hair like a waterfall, wearing a white robe with gold edges, was standing gracefully at the bow of the flying boat.
Her bright golden eyes were fixed on the distant tribulation clouds, and her delicate face was full of solemnity.
Damn it!
True Man Ye could die anywhere, just not within Lingyin Sect!
Some days ago.
The Refining God Sect had sent word, claiming that True Man Ye’s life plate within their sect was flickering unpredictably, fearing unexpected events during his tribulation, asking the Lingyin Sect to assist fully, and threatened retribution if any mishaps occurred.
What arrogance!
What does the Refining God Sect’s tribulation have to do with the Lingyin Sect?
Besides, True Man Ye’s indeed eccentric, insisting on undergoing the tribulation in the Three Thousand Great Mountains privately...
Most importantly, the Refining God Sect had gathered the whole sect’s power to plunge the Yan Kingdom into an ice disaster to aid him through the Nascent Soul Tribulation, yet unexpectedly, he failed the tribulation!
This caught everyone off guard.
"Has True Man Zhao arrived?" Bai Susu looked at that figure on the verge of collapse under the lightning, her voice anxious.
"Report... Reporting, True Inheritor!"
A nearby disciple, hearing this, showed a trace of bitterness on his face, taking out a compass emitting weak light, pointed to the flickering light spot on it, and said helplessly,
"True Man Ye brought with him the Refining God Sect’s treasure, the Heaven-Covering Mirror, during his tribulation. This treasure can obscure the heavenly engine and conceal his aura. We can only rely on this tracing compass provided by the Refining God Sect, searching inch by inch in these Three Thousand Great Mountains like headless flies."
"Only with good luck did we find True Man Ye. As for True Man Zhao and them, I’m afraid they can’t find this place in a short time."
After all, since True Man Ye chose to undergo the tribulation in the Three Thousand Great Mountains, he naturally made all sorts of preparations for himself to avoid interference from others.
However, unexpectedly, it became an obstruction...
"This fool! A tribulation is a tribulation..."
Bai Susu gritted her teeth; upon arriving here, she understood why True Man Ye failed the tribulation.
This person... was forcibly controlling the aftermath of the celestial tribulation, unwilling for it to affect the entire Yan Kingdom.
No wonder!
The ice disaster was most severe when his tribulation started, but during the tribulation, the ice disaster in the Yan Kingdom gradually subsided.
Logically, this is impossible.
The celestial tribulation would only make the ice disaster increasingly severe, how could it reverse?
Unless the one undergoing the tribulation forcibly squeezed out their remaining strength to control the tribulation’s influence.
Bai Susu couldn’t comprehend it because the ice disaster was specifically orchestrated by the Refining God Sect as favorable timing, already affecting multitudes of common folk.
But why did True Man Ye suddenly become so benevolent?
"Truly a fool... It’s been said he was called the Sword Idiot in childhood, and indeed he is!"
Bai Susu stamped her foot in anger, causing the magnificent flying boat to tremble slightly.
She hated True Man Ye for his ignorance, hated the Refining God Sect’s overbearing ways more, blaming all responsibilities on their Lingyin Sect when troubles arose!
Yet despite her hatred, she knew she had to deal with this affair whether she wanted to or not.
Should True Man Ye fall within the Lingyin Sect’s territory, the Refining God Sect with their protective nature would surely use this as an excuse to ignite a war between the sects.
By then, the whole Immortal Cultivation Realm of Yan Kingdom would likely be plunged into devastation.
Even though she cared nothing for the world...
But the peace of the Lingyin Sect had already cost her father’s life!
Bai Susu would allow no one to destroy it!
"Pass my order," Bai Susu’s bright golden eyes flashed with a resolute determination, "Activate the Nine Palaces Profound Heaven Great Array. At all costs, assist True Man Ye through this tribulation!"
"But... True Inheritor."
The nearby disciple’s face went pale upon hearing this, hurriedly trying to dissuade,
"This Nine Palaces Profound Heaven Great Array is but a prototype of our sect’s Mountain Protection Array. Once activated, it will consume a vast amount of Spirit Stones. Moreover... our cultivation is too low; forcibly activating it might cause a backlash, inflicting serious injuries upon us! How about... waiting for True Man Zhao’s arrival?"
"I said, activate the array!"
Bai Susu spun around suddenly, and a flash of ruthless cold light passed through her bright golden eyes,
"Let anyone who dares to say another word beware, I’ll be merciless with my sword!"
All were intimidated by her terrifying aura, not daring even a moment’s hesitation, immediately taking their positions, embedding Spirit Stones into the formation nodes on the flying boat.
"Buzz——!"
As the Spirit Stones were set, the entire flying boat, along with the surrounding nine mountain peaks, began to resonate intensely with a drone!
Columns of red light shot into the sky from the peaks of the nine mountains, interweaving in the air into a profound array diagram, tightly enveloping the impending lightning calamity within.
