Guo Yi had spent so long in chaos that naturally, he had obtained quite a few treasures from it.

These items for soul nurturing were basically obtained by Guo Yi from chaos, specifically for use by those at the Imperial Lord Realm.

Using them on Lei Linger now would essentially be a bit wasteful.

After all, Lei Linger's strength was too weak, and such high-level energy meant that there was a lot that Lei Linger could not absorb in the process.

Wang Ye glanced over at Guo Yi and said:

"You stay here first, I fear I might have to cross a tribulation next. Damn it!"

After saying that.

Wang Ye rose into the sky.

Indeed.

Just as Wang Ye ascended, one Heavenly Tribulation after another struck in his direction.

Thunder gathered.

Every Heavenly Tribulation possessed the power of a third-order early Emperor realm!

"Fuck!"

A Heavenly Tribulation struck Wang Ye, instantly lacerating his sturdy body into shreds and he cursed, feeling a bit frustrated.

What the hell?

He merely pulled a soul out of the river of time and forcibly revived it—did he have to be struck down by a third-order early Emperor realm Heavenly Tribulation for that?

The key issue was, although his opponent was powerful, Wang Ye felt restrained in his heart, but the key problem was, their strength wasn't even that great!

Not even a Heavenly King Realm!

Another Heavenly Tribulation descended.

"Break!"

Wang Ye got angry too.

Reviving someone who wasn't even a Heavenly King Realm, you strike me once and that's enough, but striking me a second time?

The Ice Bow emerged, arrows surged, whoosh!

An arrow was shot!

In an instant, the third-order early Emperor realm power of the Heavenly Tribulation was scattered by the arrow.

Then, no third Heavenly Tribulation appeared.

Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

But he was a bit baffled.

Earth Spirit Star and chaos were actually isolated from each other because of the chaotic entrance, unless the entrance was opened.

You could tell from the flow rate of time.

And Earth Spirit Star was now only at the second-order peak...

Thinking of this, Wang Ye glanced at Guo Yi and sighed lightly, his expression somewhat helpless.

This time, it seemed Guo Yi had trapped him.

Upon advancing to the third-order early Emperor realm, as Guo Yi returned to Earth Spirit Star, it too advanced to the third-order early Emperor realm with him.

That's why it possessed the strength to directly strike at him with a third-order early Emperor realm power.

However...

Wang Ye was puzzled.

If that's the case, then what are the rules of the Heavenly Tribulation?

Does it strike based on the peak power of the world or the extent of one's actions?

Or does it target someone slightly stronger than oneself?

Wang Ye was troubled at that moment.

If it was uncertain, Wang Ye really wouldn't dare casually pull someone from the river of time in the future.

Who knows, pulling someone out might warrant a massive punishment?

What if in chaos, he pulled someone out from the river of time and a ninth-order Emperor realm Heavenly Tribulation struck him down directly? Wang Ye himself would die without knowing how he died.

That would be a real joke.

For the moment, Wang Ye was distressed.

If it were in chaos, he could have researched this issue thoroughly, but now, he surely wouldn't dare easily study it further.

After the Heavenly Tribulation, returning to Changbai Mountain, Guo Yi had already merged Lei Linger into his body and soon would complete the fusion.

Guo Yi didn't need to do anything further, just wait for Lei Linger to successfully fuse next.

Upon feeling Wang Ye's return, everyone on Earth Spirit Star could sense it during his Heavenly Tribulation, Guo Yi asked Wang Ye:

"Did you face the Heavenly Tribulation because you pulled Lei Linger out of the river of time?"

"Yes."

Wang Ye nodded his head affirmatively.

This was something Guo Yi could quickly deduce with a little thought, and it wasn't something that needed to be kept secret, so Wang Ye admitted it straightforwardly.

Guo Yi stayed silent for a while and then spoke to Wang Ye: "In this matter, I owe you a favor."

"No worries."

Wang Ye waved it off.

Then, Wang Ye rose into the sky again, his voice resounding across Earth Spirit Star:

"The Heavenly Tribulation earlier! It was because I successfully advanced to the third-order early Emperor realm! So it was a Chaotic Heavenly Tribulation, everyone need not be alarmed!"

Wang Ye!

Advanced to the third-order early Emperor realm!

The residents of Earth Spirit Star, having sensed the third-order early Emperor realm Heavenly Tribulation descending upon them without actually striking, still felt terrified in their hearts.

That third-order early Emperor realm power felt like a bomb going off in their hearts, exerting an overwhelming pressure on them.

They were, inherently, terrified!

And they didn't know that Wang Ye had already returned from the chaotic entrance.

Now hearing of his return and direct advancement to the third-order early Emperor realm, they began to cheer, voices rising continuously from Earth Spirit Star:

"Congratulations to the Venerable Lord!"

"Congratulations to the Venerable Lord!"

"Congratulations to the Venerable Lord on advancing to the third-order early Emperor realm!"

The people of Earth Spirit Star didn't know what the third-order early Emperor realm meant, but that didn't matter.

What mattered was that they knew Wang Ye had become much stronger.

Then.

Wang Ye took Lin Shuang'er, Su Wanqing, Fang Feifei, and others for a tour around Earth Spirit Star.

Because they still needed to travel from the Dragon Domain to Lingxiao Domain, Wang Ye wouldn't be able to stay on Earth Spirit Star for much longer, essentially leaving immediately.

This tour was partly to accompany Lin Shuang'er and the others and partly to check how Long Qingtian and Xu Heng had been managing Earth Spirit Star during their absence.

After evaluating for some time, Wang Ye felt quite satisfied.

It must be said, Long Qingtian and Xu Heng's management skills were impressive, and even though only a few years had passed, Earth Spirit Star looked completely different from before, with all issues well-handled.

Next, even with Shi Heng's departure, there wouldn't be any problem.

Two hours later.

Guo Yi appeared before Wang Ye, bringing Lei Linger with him.
