A cultivator couldn't help but exclaim, "What is this situation? Is there a second person going through tribulation? And so close?"
"Damn it, close my ass... That guy is charging towards us!" another cultivator said in horror.
Indeed, that figure, like a bolt of lightning, charged directly towards them, and all sorts of phenomena in the sky followed in the wake of this figure, moving towards their direction.
"Holy shit! What is he trying to do?" one cultivator shouted in shock.
"Stop yelling... just run for it, or do you want to die?" another cultivator yelled, frantically fleeing towards the distance.
Almost everyone who saw this scene almost went crazy.
They were scared crazy!
And astonished to the point of insanity!
Even the calmest person, upon seeing this scene, would find it hard to remain composed.
Even if it were the young adults facing this situation, they would have no choice but to retreat, with no other option available!
Unless they had a hatred deep as the ocean and were willing to risk their lives to disrupt the other party's advancement.
But here, who knows the Demon Lord and Die?
In this instant, whether openly or hidden... hundreds to thousands of cultivators, all became like startled birds, cursing their parents for not giving them an extra pair of legs and lamenting their own low cultivation, all running desperately towards the distance.
If they were touched by the divine thunder, no one could escape!
They would be forced to go through tribulation!
Who would want to face such a Heavenly Tribulation?
Didn't you see Bronze Crane running faster than anyone? In just a moment, it had flown nearly a million miles! Its shadow was nowhere to be seen!
Essence energy surged within the Demon Lord's body, the third volume of Heaven's Will My Will Heart Method, the Extreme Dao volume, running wildly, plundering the vast essence energy between Heaven and Earth.
Though the Demon Lord reacted fast enough and ran fast enough, it still slightly affected Die.
A large amount of essence energy began to tear away from Die's side, pouring into the Demon Lord's body.
This was the last thing the Demon Lord wanted to see; he didn't want to affect Die's ascension, especially after hearing what Bronze Crane had said. He hoped even more that Die could seize this opportunity to step directly into the ranks of the highest-level cultivators in the Heavenly Realm.
The Demon Lord felt anxious in his heart and couldn't help but resent himself for being so close.
But now, it was too late to say anything, and he could only try to get a little farther away from Die.
However, to the Demon Lord's surprise, as the Extreme Dao volume in his body ran wildly, more and more essence energy was drawn from Die's side, and the earth beneath his feet seemed to be provoked, starting to spew out essence energy even more furiously!
The density of that essence energy... was almost as if it was solidifying!
It instantly filled the space beneath Die's body that had been depleted of essence energy.
The Demon Lord was shocked, but what followed was an endless joy!
"Could it actually work like this?"
A massive amount of essence energy poured into the Demon Lord's body, and all those phenomena in the sky started to fly towards him, directly crashing into his elixir field and engraving onto his Dao platform.
The Demon Lord suddenly felt his power growing rapidly, surging violently!
Boom!
His body erupted with the aura of the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
Crack!
A bolt of divine thunder descended from the sky!
The couple was both undergoing tribulation!
Meanwhile, Die's cultivation had already directly breached the true immortal realm!
All sorts of phenomena entered her body, engraving onto her Dao platform.
The second layer of Heavenly Tribulation... had already descended!
Crack!
Thunder roared!
Within tens of thousands of miles centered around them, the Heavenly Tribulation covered everything.
Those cultivators who had fled to distant places, still unsettled, watched this scene, the apocalyptic sight, all breaking out in a cold sweat.
"I don't even know what to say."
"I'm terrified!"
"I was scared too!"
"The heavenly road is just beginning!"
"This is only the beginning of the heavenly road..."
"Who exactly are these two people? It's apparent... they must be together!"
People were discussing animatedly, and finally, some cultivators pointed out that the second person's sudden breakthrough must have been as unexpected for them as it was for everyone else.
"That person obviously didn't expect to break through at such a time; he originally stayed in that place likely to protect the girl in red. But the essence energy surging from the ground was so vast and astonishing that it swept him up too! And he must have been cultivating a very advanced cultivation technique, which uncontrollably started operating on its own when it encountered such essence energy. That's why he ran out like mad. He wasn't trying to harm us, but to avoid affecting the girl in red!"
This explanation was accepted by everyone.
In fact, even if they didn't accept it, there were few among them who dared to trouble the other party.
They were simply two frenzied cultivators. From the Daluo Golden Immortal to the Heavenly Immortal and then to the True Immortal... choosing to face tribulation every step of the way!
Such bravery, I reckon that even many of the Heavenly Geniuses of the Heavenly Realm may not possess it. Perhaps only those powerful young masters, cultivators who are extremely demanding and harsh on themselves... would be so insane.
The Heavenly Tribulation continued on one side, while the hearts of the group of cultivators on the other side were far from calm.
In truth, at their level of cultivation, where the least among them were cultivators of the Daluo Golden Immortal, it was very hard for anything to cause such dramatic fluctuations in their emotions.
But what they saw and heard today had truly far exceeded their original understanding.
Some who were usually quite conceited finally fell silent at this moment because they saw the gap!
This gap was something they understood in the past but were unwilling to acknowledge. Only when something like today happened right before their eyes, allowing them to witness others' excellence, did they finally, willingly or unwillingly, accept this fact.
In this world, there will always be someone stronger than you!
This principle they actually all knew, but knowing and accepting are never the same.
Boom!
The Demon Lord and Die in the distant sky were not overwhelmed by the Heavenly Tribulation. Instead, their auras grew stronger and stronger!
At this moment, Die was truly ascending towards the Emperor Realm!
She almost plundered all the "nourishment" from the Heavenly Tribulation!
Refining the body, elevating the realm!
Where is this a tribulation?
This is clearly a vacation!
An indulgence!
An enjoyment of the process of the Heavenly Tribulation!
On the other side, the Demon Lord, after reaching the Heavenly Immortal level, did not stop there but continued to ascend crazily, climbing higher and higher, all the way towards the True Immortal Realm.
Above Die's head, the visions that appeared this time were no longer just those ancient divine beasts; there began to appear figures enveloped entirely in radiance!
Cultivators with trembling voices exclaimed, "Supreme images! Supreme images!"
Yes, those figures appearing above Die, shrouded in radiance, were actually the images left by past supremes!
Supremes achieved Dao, leaving their aura in this Heaven and Earth, transforming into laws, and becoming a part of the Heavenly Tribulation!
But only during the Emperor Tribulation did they have a certain chance to appear.
It's not that every time someone ascended to the Emperor Realm, such images would appear; only those shocking and extraordinary talents who were acknowledged by a supreme would have their images appear!
These images were not made to trouble those facing tribulation... but to bestow upon them unimaginably beneficial favors!
Supreme images engraved on the Dao platform meant there was a hint of the supreme's aura!
For future cultivation paths... this would have an incalculable and tremendous benefit!
"I've heard of the Emperor Tribulation before, with at most six supremes' images appearing. But this... there are altogether... one two three... seven, eight... thirteen! My God... thirteen supremes! That girl in red... she actually received the acknowledgment of thirteen supremes! I'm going crazy! I want to face tribulation!" a cultivator screamed wildly, truly stirred to near madness.
This scene had never been seen or heard of before!
Truly earth-shattering, epoch-making!
