As time passed, an indescribable powerful aura rose from the center of the grassland and continually expanded in all directions.
Three days later, the sky above the grassland suddenly became covered with dark clouds, followed by peals of thunder that spread across thousands of miles. This tribulation anomaly soon alarmed half of the Moonlight Cave Heaven.
"Someone is crossing a tribulation?! Never mind whether or not it is. These kinds of things are beyond what I can get involved in, I'd better hide far away!"
"Huh, where did the tribulation cloud come from! Is it a person or a demon beast crossing a tribulation now?"
"Hehe, this person is really bold! Aren't they afraid of being attacked by everyone?"
"Junior Brother, let's go there and take a look. Maybe we can pick up some benefits."
Because they witnessed someone daringly crossing a tribulation, the group of Golden Core Masters had mixed thoughts for a while; some chose to avoid from afar, some watched coldly, while others quickly approached the place.
However, every time someone intruded within a three hundred mile radius, they would encounter a head-on attack.
Some unwelcome guests were "submerged" by brilliant starlight, leaving no trace in the world.
Also, some Golden Cores who saw the unfavorable situation quickly turned and fled far away.
Of course, Moonlight Cave Heaven is a vast land spanning two hundred thousand miles, while the tribulation phenomena on the grassland covered only a few thousand miles, so most Golden Core Masters were unaware of this event.
They also did not know they were about to face a life-and-death tribulation.
The Heavenly Tribulation came quickly and went quickly!
A quarter of an hour later, the tribulation cloud dispersed, and the sky over the grassland once again reflected the endless stones and sand of the desert.
In mid-air, Yu Shashi, Liu Mao, and Chen Ling looked at the figure standing firmly below, each with an expression of wild joy.
"Haha! Senior Brother really succeeded!" Yu Shashi laughed heartily, the Doumu Star Seal on his face trembling continuously, "rippling" out layers upon layers of spiral halos.
At this moment, a voice suppressing excitement entered the ears of the three: "Please be bothered, Junior Brother and Junior Sister, to protect me for ten days! Once the realm is stabilized, I will immediately emerge from seclusion."
"Understood!" The three's expressions turned solemn as they responded in unison.
...
In the center of the Grotto Heaven, within a valley surrounded by mountains, came bursts of rumbling.
Deep within the valley, a fierce battle raged between one person and one beast.
As time passed, the vegetation of the entire valley was destroyed, the earth was overturned, riddled with pits and cracks, with traces of the fierce battle everywhere in the valley.
Roar!
When the final desperate roar echoed from above the valley, a broken and giant golden lion fell from the sky.
The demon corpse crashed to the ground, forming a large pit.
"It's fortunate that this golden-haired lion had just given birth and its body was weak. Otherwise, I fear I might not have been its match..."
Master Po Yan of the Heavenly Person Sect sighed in relief, took a few Spirit Pills for healing and True Yuan recovery, and descended from the sky next to the demon corpse.
After carefully examining the Sixth-rank Demon Lion, he laughed heartily and casually lifted the corpse, storing it in the Qiankun Bag.
At this moment, Master Po Yan suddenly felt all his hairs stand on end, quickly raised his head to survey the surroundings with his Divine Sense covering a few hundred yards but found nothing.
"Could it be that I sensed wrongly just now?"
Master Po Yan frowned and lowered his head, but when he looked up again, a young man with sword-like eyebrows and a handsome appearance eerily appeared at about seven or eight yards away, smiling at him.
"So it's Brother Tian Cheng of the Sili Ancient Clan, I am Po Yan of the Heavenly Person Sect, pleasure to meet you!" Master Po Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of horror, but on the surface, he feigned calmness and cupped his hands in greeting.
At the same time, his Lifebound Magic Treasure, the Flameless Cauldron, was already itching to move, ready to burst forth at any moment.
"You talk too much! Leave the Five Fortune Pearl, and I will spare your life, or stay here." Sili Tiancheng said expressionlessly, his voice indifferent.
"Hmph, I am afraid I must refuse..." Master Po Yan retorted without hesitation, and simultaneously summoned the Flameless Cauldron to protect himself.
Unpredictable True Flame spewed from the cauldron and then surrounded him, slowly enveloping his figure in flames.
Hearing this, Sili Tiancheng's gaze turned cold, and a layer of scorching white light appeared on his body surface.
In the next moment, countless pure white "snowflakes," hotter than flames, appeared out of thin air. In the blink of an eye, the dense snow-like Ice Soul Divine Light froze everything within a few miles, even the void was "frozen."
Master Po Yan reacted swiftly, patting the cauldron lid heavily. A large mass of unpredictable True Flame spewed out, forming a flame barrier, blocking the surrounding cold from eroding.
"A mere trick!"
Sili Tiancheng remained indifferent, stretched out his right hand, and pressed downward toward Po Yan.
In an instant, the colors around Master Po Yan faded away, and heaven and earth turned into a purely white expanse, the white concealing an incredibly low temperature beyond imagination.
Crack, crack!
Unexpectedly, one after another of Po Yan's True Flames were frozen into blocks of ice flame, falling to the ground with rustling sounds, and then completely dissolved by the Ice Soul Divine Light.
Master Po Yan's face changed, suddenly opened his mouth, and spewed a large amount of essence blood onto the Flameless Cauldron. Simultaneously, his figure spun around quickly and astonishingly drilled into the Flameless Cauldron, and the lid immediately closed again.
"Boom!"
The Flameless Cauldron instantly broke through the frozen void, intending to soar into the sky.
But at this moment, a crystal-clear Ice Pearl appeared out of thin air above the Treasure Tripod, fiercely suppressing it.
Crack, crack, crack!
Endless ice and snow surged out from the Ice Soul Divine Pearl, instantly engulfing the Flameless Cauldron.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred-zhang high Ice Mountain crashed to the ground, and inside the Ice Mountain, a Bronze Ancient Cauldron as large as a water jar was sealed.
Sili Tiancheng did not care about the life or death of Master Po Yan, but suddenly looked up at the sky.
The sky reflected a vast grassland, and at that moment, large patches of pitch-black clouds appeared out of nowhere, quickly covering the grassland while emitting a strong aura of destruction.
"Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation? It seems soon, I won't be so lonely anymore."
After speaking, a trace of excitement and bloodthirsty smile appeared on Sili Tiancheng's face.
Just then, a cracking sound was heard, and the Flameless Cauldron inside the Ice Mountain suddenly developed threads of cracks, then rapidly shattered, revealing Master Po Yan's face of despair.
…
Time passed day by day, and the Golden Core Masters scattered throughout the Grotto Heaven met one after another, triggering fierce battles.
The strong gained everything, while the weak either died or fled, ending up tragically in the end.
Of course, some people actively abandoned the Five Fortune Pearl, choosing to temporarily "hide."
But Zhao Sheng was different from the vast majority of Golden Core Masters. Firstly, he did not actively kill, and secondly, he did not search the Grotto Heaven for various treasures.
In fact, his interest was not in killing and looting treasures, but in the Inheritance Stele and treasures containing the Power of Space-Time.
The Inheritance Stele was not urgently needed, as someone would "actively" send the Five Fortune Pearl, and the later on, the greater the harvest.
He had been in the Moonlight Cave Heaven for seven days, only to find a dozen grains of Space-Time Sand and a thumb-sized Space-Time Crystal Stone.
The rarity of space-time-type treasures exceeded his expectations.
Furthermore, he wandered in the Moonlight Cave Heaven for seven days, traversed two hundred thousand li of territory, but intriguingly did not find the boundary of the Grotto Heaven.
"Could it be...in the sky?"
Above a stretch of ocean, Zhao Sheng sat on a cloud, pondered for a long time, then suddenly had an epiphany and looked up at the sky.
At that moment, the sky above reflected the image of continuous mountain ranges and ridges.
With a streak of Thunder Light soaring into the sky, Zhao Sheng swiftly flew towards the Heavenly Vault above.
Ten thousand zhang,
Thirty thousand zhang,
One hundred thousand zhang,
...
Flying over a million zhang, the mountain ranges above not only did not become clearer, but instead looked more faintly distorted, feeling more distant.
All around was empty and silent, Zhao Sheng's sense of space repeatedly went wrong, sometimes feeling the heavens and earth vast and boundless, sometimes feeling the space strangely confined.
Occasionally looking down at the sea below, he found the sea surface gradually became blurry.
At this moment, Zhao Sheng felt a huge sense of danger, as if continuing to fly upward, death would suddenly descend.
With a sudden scatter of Thunder Light, he stopped motionless.
A bead of cold sweat ran down his forehead, while countless Space-Time Beacons emerged in the void, suddenly becoming extremely clear.
In the next instant, Zhao Sheng vanished into thin air.
Just at the moment his figure disappeared, an indescribable invisible power swept over the place where he had just been.
If Zhao Sheng had remained there, he surely would have been erased by this power.
