"You… plan to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation?" The old man with a smoking pipe looked at Chu Mo with some surprise: "Here?"

Chu Mo nodded: "Yes, here!"

The old man with the smoking pipe looked worriedly at Chu Mo, furrowing his brows slightly: "Are you sure you are ready?"

As a descendant of the Chu Clan's ancestral lineage, the old man with the smoking pipe knew better than anyone else the path Chu Mo was on. The Chu Clan's lineage itself was renowned for powerful physical bodies, and their cultivation focused on tempering the body itself.

But Chu Mo was different; he also carried the bloodline of the highest order from another world. This meant that the Chu Clan's path of body refinement was not entirely suitable for Chu Mo. Therefore, though the old man was concerned, he did not know how to advise Chu Mo. Indeed, Chu Mo's current state was already beyond his guidance.

In some respects, Chu Mo's path had surpassed him, surpassed everyone.

"Don't worry." Chu Mo glanced at the concerned faces around him, smiled lightly, and then took a step off the warship.

There were some things Chu Mo did not want to say to them; although this was a path of no return, he still wanted to try. He believed that Heaven would not seal off all paths. Even if it was a dead end, he wanted to walk to its extremity. If there was no road ahead, then he would carve one himself!

The ancient predecessors, facing the harsh conditions of the creation of the world, were able to forge their own paths. They could contend with Heaven, with Earth, and with all beings.

So why couldn't he, today?

Chu Mo had cultivated many Supreme Arts, and he had inherited too many supremacies. Now, he was starting to tread his own path.

He wanted the old man with the smoking pipe, the robust young man, the playful young woman, and the middle-aged man—these simple descendants from the Chu Clan's ancestral land—to survive.

The young woman blinked, seemingly wanting to say something, but ultimately, she kept silent. Although playful and fond of jokes, it didn't mean she was frivolous.

Everyone present understood what it meant for Chu Mo to undergo tribulation and breakthrough in these circumstances.

Watching Chu Mo rush toward that huge star, the young woman couldn't help but say softly, "The burdens he carries are too heavy."

"Yes, too heavy," sighed the middle-aged man.

The old man with the smoking pipe took a puff from his pipe, shrouding his wrinkled face in curling smoke, and said softly: "Although we are prepared to die, the young master wants us to live."

The robust young man chuckled and said: "If one can live, who would choose death? But these things always entail sacrifice."

The middle-aged man nodded: "It's good news for the young master to strengthen himself; at least, it adds another layer of self-protection."

Yue Qingcheng looked at these people, feeling a subtle sorrow. They were supposed to be cultivators living in harmony with the world. They were fundamentally different from the cultivators she had seen before. If not for the issues with the Demon Clan, these people would likely never leave the ancestral land of the Chu Clan for their entire lives. Even living as farmers would bring them happiness.

But now, they were resolutely facing death without a hint of fear and without any complaints. Only such people were worthy of the surname Chu, right?

Outside, the cosmos was dark and deep, with countless stars shining like pearls decorating the darkness. Chu Mo's figure had already submerged into that vast desolate star and disappeared.

Yet everyone's gaze still lingered in that direction, watching with concern.

Soon after, above that huge star, a massive amount of tribulation clouds began to slowly gather. It appeared slow because they were incredibly distant, creating the illusion of tribulation clouds forming out of thin air and enveloping the great star. In reality, this accumulation was incredibly fast. If one were to look up from that great star, the perspective would be entirely different.

Suddenly!

A massive purple lightning bolt, like a fierce dragon, ferociously struck at that great star.

Boom rumble!

The great star itself even trembled slightly.

Following that, an immeasurable and vast surge of essence energy arose from above the star, like a giant wave, striking the tribulation clouds in the void!

"My heavens!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaim in unison.

"That star…" Even the old man with the smoking pipe instinctively took the smoking pipe out of his mouth, staring dumbfounded at that vast desolate star, his eyes filled with immense shock.

"Is that star formed from condensed essence energy?" the robust young man muttered to himself.

The young woman's eyes widened in shock: "How did the young master discern it? With the warship moving so fast, it can pass by such a great star in an instant; how… how could he have noticed its uniqueness at a glance?"

Everyone was extremely shocked because during a tribulation, unless one had absolute confidence and assurance, it's usually preferred to choose a place rich in essence energy for undergoing the tribulation. This would provide timely replenishment of energy to face the vast consumption.

But the place Chu Mo chose was so miraculous. Everyone had never seen a place where the essence energy was so dense yet the entire star was desolate and lifeless.

Above that great star.

Chu Mo stood in the void, his long hair hanging loose, his body brimming with surging blood energy, his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked up at the thick tribulation clouds in the sky. He was not at ease.

Regarding the Emperor Realm, he could have successfully entered it while on the heavenly road. He was already thoroughly familiar with everything about this level of the Emperor Realm. However, he had chosen not to truly step into this realm yet, constantly solidifying his foundational Dao.

Even after coming off the heavenly road, during the initial period facing the intense suppression from the Quasi-Supreme Realm, he had never wavered, persistently solidifying the foundation of the true immortal realm.

His efforts were rewarded. After grasping a whole new Great Dao, progressing from one to two and two to all things, facing a Quasi-Supreme power again, he could handle it with ease.

Now, at the true immortal level, he had reached the utmost understanding. Continuing to consolidate it wasn't very meaningful anymore.

Therefore, even without facing any dangerous unknown circumstances, Chu Mo needed to consider transcending the tribulation to the Emperor Realm.

The essence energy contained within this giant star surprised even Chu Mo. Along the way, he kept using the Technique of Energy Observation to observe, and when he observed this star region, Chu Mo's divine sense sea was shaken.

It was hard to imagine that a barren giant star could contain such astonishing essence energy.

Hence, Chu Mo directly chose this place.

The clouds of tribulation in the sky were a bit too thick. The power of the Heavenly Tribulation's lightning was also a bit too strong.

This was completely different from the Emperor Heavenly Tribulations Chu Mo had seen before.

Even those terrifying tribulations on the heavenly road paled in comparison to the current one.

Where did the problem lie? Was it because the star's essence energy was too dense and directly impacting the tribulation clouds? Or was it because of himself?

Chu Mo felt that the problem most likely lay with him.

His Dao was completely different from others', and just from the realm itself, there was an unimaginably huge gap. In the entire Yanhuang region, who could challenge a Quasi-Supreme at the peak of the true immortal realm?

Therefore, it was within reason that his faced Heavenly Tribulation was much stronger than a normal Emperor Heavenly Tribulation.

The people on the distant warship also felt the abnormality of that Heavenly Tribulation.

The old man smoking a pipe spoke gravely, "The young master's Heavenly Tribulation seems a bit unusual…"

The middle-aged man nodded, "I always thought that the Heavenly Tribulations we faced were terrifying enough. I didn't expect that compared to the one the young master is facing, it is still far less."

"That's why he is the young master…" the young woman said faintly.

Yue Qingcheng looked tense, her eyes filled with deep concern.

The young woman glanced at Yue Qingcheng, then said with a light laugh, "Qingcheng, you don't need to worry. Our young master will definitely pass through the Heavenly Tribulation easily."

Yue Qingcheng looked at the young woman gratefully and then nodded slightly.

Above that giant star, the clouds of tribulation were still condensing, becoming denser.

Crack!

Another lightning bolt struck down.

The vast essence energy crazily surged into Chu Mo's body, impacting the barriers of the Emperor Realm within him.

Chu Mo looked at the lightning bolt, suddenly raised his hand, and punched directly towards it.

Boom!

Above the vault of heaven, a huge rumbling sound instantly erupted.

The bolt of Heavenly Tribulation's lightning was actually scattered by Chu Mo's punch!

The endless essence energy contained in the lightning was completely absorbed by Chu Mo.

The Only Me Scroll from the Heaven's Will My Will technique, like a scroll of true words, not only operated rapidly inside Chu Mo's body but also formed an array of runes outside his body!

This is the external manifestation of the technique, only achievable when cultivated to a very high level!

Boom boom boom!

Inside those immensely thick clouds, the Heavenly Dao seemed to roar in anger, emitting a thunderous rumbling sound. A terrifying aura, one that hinted at world's end, emitted from the clouds of tribulation. The dense clouds seemed to be brewing a world-shaking strike!

The blood energy in Chu Mo's body was fully unleashed, and for the first time, he displayed all his strength. Even when facing those Quasi-Supremes before, he had never so freely shown his true power.

"This aura... Even the Quasi-Supremes can't achieve this. And the young master... How young is he?" muttered the old man with the pipe, squinting his eyes as he finally witnessed the young master's true strength. No wonder he could horizontally slaughter Quasi-Supremes in the Heavenly Realm and became a young giant at such a young age. This strength was truly astounding.

So powerful!

At that moment, a dragon's claw, suddenly, emerged from those utterly thick tribulation clouds.

It was a vast, azure-colored dragon's claw, as if cast from bronze, filled with a shocking sense of power. The huge scales were neatly aligned, each sparkling with a cold light. The tips of the claws, as sharp as cold blades, reached directly for Chu Mo.
