The feirce thunder tribulation fell, but it was not as terrifying as they had imagined. They could feel that the arm holding the lightning rod was a little numb, and at the same time, part of the lightning struck their bodies.
But they all activated their defenses. Their bodies and heads were protected by magic treasures. This level of power had no impact on them at all.
Perhaps the heavenly Dao knew what was happening here, so the following waves of lightning grew fiercer and fiercer.
But they discovered that with this lightning rod, even the Heavenly Tribulation could not do anything to them.
After the ninth bolt of lightning, the tribulation clouds unwillingly dispersed. When everyone felt their bodies being tempered by the tribulation, they all stared at the lightning rod with a bewildered expression.
Was it really successful just like that?
They had not even experienced the danger and pain that the legends said came with crossing a tribulation.
Tang Guo looked up at the sky. Just now, she felt a gaze land on her. That gaze had first locked onto her with a sharp, oppressive force. For some reason, it had quickly withdrawn again, as if it had seen something terrifying.
She touched her face. Was it because of her? Or was there something about her that made the other side fearful?
That aura was very familiar to her, the aura of the Heavenly Dao.
Was it this world’s Heavenly Dao that feared her?
“Tongzi, do I have some special background, or am I not such a simple person myself?”
[Host, you only realize this now? I have long suspected you must have an extraordinary background.]
Tang Guo nodded in agreement. “True. I’ve broken so many worlds without any consequence. It probably does have something to do with me. But that doesn’t matter.”
Knowing that even the Heavenly Dao feared her made her feel even more at ease to do whatever she liked. All those hardships she had suffered during the confused times had to be repaid slowly.
“This is already successful.” Mo Yuntian and the other two couldn’t help but complain, why was it so fast?
The three of them exchanged looks and finally couldn’t help turning to Tang Guo. “Sister, do you have any more of those lightning rods?”
The three of them had already survived their own tribulations, but they were intrigued by this lightning rod and wanted one to play with.
Tang Guo was very generous and grabbed a big handful to give them.
The corners of the three men’s mouths twitched hard. She was handing them out like they cost nothing.
“Alright, now that you have survived the tribulation, you should prepare to ascend. When Feng Feiling is crossing her tribulation, I’ll let you know. If you have anything you want to say to those you care about, do it early. When you’ve made her furious, you can ascend together.”
Wen Yi and the others exchanged looks. Gu Qin, who was always the most outspoken, blurted out, “Master, what about you? When will you cross the tribulation and ascend?”
This was something they had always wanted to ask. Tang Guo’s cultivation had long since reached the point where she could cross the tribulation, but she simply refused to do it. This gave them a bad feeling. They felt that if they ascended this time, they would never see her again.
Tang Guo could feel the most sincere affection from all of them, and she couldn’t help but smile. “I don’t plan to cross the tribulation.”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but when they saw how unconcerned she looked, they wanted to persuade her, yet they knew no one could change her mind once she decided something.
“Master, we will always remember you.”
Even if they never saw her again, they would never forget her.
“If fate allows, we will meet again.” Tang Guo thought of how she would travel through countless worlds. Perhaps one day, she would meet old friends again.
When the disciples heard this, they felt relieved. Master’s words did not sound like she intended to grow old and die in the cultivation world.
Three years later, Feng Feiling succumbed to demonic cultivation. She became like the demon cultivators, consuming other cultivators to strengthen herself. The Xingyue Sect also fell from a prestigious righteous sect into a demonic sect.
Feng Feiling led the entire sect into depravity.
This day was the day Feng Feiling was to cross her tribulation.
