In the sky, Yun Jiuzi and three Grand Elders of Kunlun Dao Integration stood amidst the clouds, their Divine Consciousness spreading out, controlling a radius of a thousand miles.
Suddenly, the four of them were taken aback, looking up at something directly above them.
They were already in the clouds, with the Azure Void above them, an endless blue sky unobstructed, allowing a direct view into the depths of the universe. In the void, countless small stars flickered erratically. Above them, the sun that illuminated all things radiated a dazzling light, hot and blinding; it was so brilliant that it made the small stars in the void appear particularly dim.
Everything seemed normal at first.
However, in the Azure Void, directly overhead, countless peculiar seven-colored Color Clouds began to fly in from the void, gathering together in layers.
At first glance, these seven-colored Color Clouds seemed unremarkable; aside from their abrupt appearance, there was nothing unusual about them. But as they began to converge, a powerful and destructive aura gradually emanated from them.
"Calamity Cloud! It’s actually Calamity Cloud!" Yun Jiuzi's expression changed drastically.
The three Kunlun Elders were equally alarmed. One of them, having reached the peak of cultivation and waiting for thousands of years for the Heavenly Dao to manifest, was well aware of this phenomenon. He shouted urgently, "Seven-Colored Calamity Cloud! The most formidable Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation among human tribulations. As long as one passes through it, they will become a Golden Immortal and ascend to the celestial realm. Who is it? Who is it that is undergoing such a great tribulation at this moment?!"
He continued anxiously, "It has been three thousand years since anyone ascended! The last time was when one of your Nine Li Sect Fairies attracted Calamity Cloud during the battle between two sects and suddenly ascended. However, I have read countless texts and found no similar accounts; the Calamity Cloud she attracted was blood-red and she did not endure all the Tribulations before ascending. Such a situation is absolutely anomalous; even if she ascended with limited achievement, she would at most be a Celestial Immortal. But now this is a true Seven-Colored Calamity Cloud! It is said that if one endures all of it, they can directly become a Golden Immortal body through the Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation. If one passes through it and ascends to the celestial realm, they will be a Great Luo Golden Immortal. Who is it? Who could it be?!"
He was nearly driven to madness as he looked at the Seven-Colored Calamity Cloud above him, speaking incoherently.
In Cultivation World legends, there are different Tribulations for human ascension, and each has varying achievements after passing through them. Generally speaking, there are Four-Nine Tribulations, Six-Nine Tribulations, and Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation. The Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation is the most formidable and powerful; it consists of nine waves where each wave brings down nine bolts of tribulation lightning simultaneously—each more intense than the last. The final tribulation is especially terrifying: it combines into one as the Great Five Elements Purple Sky Ultimate Annihilation Return to Nothingness Heavenly Thunder. Passing through it immediately results in becoming a Golden Immortal body and ascending to the celestial realm among immortals. However, failing to endure means being obliterated completely.
Success or failure hinges on this moment. Nevertheless, causing a Tribulation and having hopes of ascension is far better than being stuck in the Tribulation Period and dying from inexplicable physical decline. Ascension is ultimately the goal of cultivation. Thus, upon witnessing the true might of the Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation, these three Heavenly Fusion Stage masters who had hidden away for thousands of years were immensely excited; their eyes burned with fervor as they fixed their gaze on the Calamity Cloud above them, wishing they could be the ones to trigger it.
But they knew it definitely wasn't them.
Yun Jiuzi was initially excited too; however, upon hearing "your Nine Li Sect Fairy," his expression suddenly darkened. He quickly looked down and saw Li Hong rapidly flying upward.
Yun Jiuzi was suddenly startled, thinking to himself, did he hear what was just said?
The three Kunlun Elders followed Yun Jiuzi's gaze and happened to see Li Hongfei. They couldn't help but exclaim in unison, "Could it be him?"
As soon as the words left their mouths, the three of them shook their heads simultaneously, "No! It's not him!"
Calamity Cloud had begun to brew, and the entire world responded. Spiritual Energy surged wildly, countless anomalies appeared, the Heavenly Dao trembled, and within the Azure Void, a mysterious passage was opening. But it was not Li Hong. All of Li Hong's aura was normal.
What they didn't know was that Li Hong himself felt extremely uncomfortable. His body had now become a pure energy form of Five Elements Unification. When this kind of Spiritual Energy riot occurred, Li Hong could particularly feel it, always sensing that something within his body seemed to be stirring uncontrollably. That heavenly essence unknowingly reached toward the Calamity Cloud above, as if something deep within the Azure Void was irresistibly attracting him.
Li Hong struggled to suppress this strange sensation and quickly flew upward, wanting to meet with Yun Jiuzi to discuss matters. Just then, the words of the Kunlun Elder from the Wu character generation reached his ears clearly.
"Last time it was one of your Nine Li Sect Fairies who attracted the Calamity Cloud during the battle between the two sects and suddenly ascended. However, I have read countless books and found no similar records. The Calamity Cloud she attracted back then was an unprecedented blood-red color, and she didn't endure all the Tribulation before ascending directly. Such a situation is absolutely anomalous; even if her ascension was limited, at most she would become a Celestial Immortal..."
Chu Xi! He was talking about Chu Xi!
Li Hong's figure suddenly froze as countless thoughts surged in his mind.
It has been twenty years! Chu Xi ascended twenty years ago! For these twenty years, the scene of Chu Xi's ascension flashed before his eyes at all times. Although Chu Xi's figure ultimately disappeared into the passage leading to the Immortal Realm, there were countless doubts surrounding it.
First of all, there was only one strike from the Calamity Cloud; it had never been heard that a Tribulation consisted of only one strike. When that golden Lustful Temptation lightning struck Chu Xi, she showed no signs of change; she didn't even seem to feel that she was resisting the Tribulation. Then Chu Xi suddenly vanished in a flash of white light, disappearing completely.
At that time, Du Yizi was present and confidently told Li Hong that the white light was the passage to the Immortal Realm and that Chu Xi had ascended. Li Hong believed this at that moment; everyone present believed it to be true.
However, as twenty years passed, Li Hong was no longer the confused little cultivator who didn't understand many things back then. He gradually discovered many doubts surrounding Chu Xi's ascension. What that Kunlun Elder just said reflected the consensus among all Cultivation World practitioners. Why was Chu Xi's Tribulation so unusual? Did she truly ascend or had she already perished in body and spirit at that time?
No... Li Hong shouted in his heart, Chu Xi absolutely cannot be completely destroyed! It is impossible!
However, the shadow in his heart could not dissipate. Li Hong forced himself to calm down and flew to Yun Jiuzi's side.
Seeing Li Hong's expression, Yun Jiuzi knew that he had heard the Kunlun Elder's words and sighed inwardly. He patted Li Hong on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, Chu Xi won't die. She must have ascended to the Immortal Realm. Today may not be your Tribulation, but one day you will ascend to the Immortal Realm, and that will be the day you reunite with Chu Xi."
"Yes! That's right!" Li Hong said firmly, shaking off the shadow in his heart.
At that moment, a stirring began deep within him, all his Dao hearts involuntarily responding to the Heavenly Dao. Li Hong struggled to suppress it and loudly asked, "Whose Tribulation is it? It's not mine, not Xuan Xuzi's, not yours; who is it?"
Just then, as if in response to him, the silent black mist in the ten-mile stone crevice below suddenly began to churn. A powerful and boundless force surged forth from beneath, grand and pure. The Calamity Cloud sensed it immediately and began to lock onto that ten-mile stone crevice.
The five people in the sky were simultaneously shocked: "It’s actually Yandao Demon Lord!"
It was him! No wonder Yandao Demon Lord had been hiding away and refused to send anyone to support his disciples, watching them turn to ashes; he was about to face his Tribulation, about to undergo his trial, about to ascend!
For three thousand years, Yandao Demon Lord had been stuck in the Tribulation Period. Every moment he was comprehending the Heavenly Dao and thinking about ascension. He abandoned everything, devised countless schemes, even going so far as to infiltrate the Immortal Sect and sacrifice all of his Demon Sect disciples for this understanding of the Heavenly Dao. Today, he finally succeeded; he could feel his Heavenly Dao above!
This immense power surged forth from underground with righteous energy shooting up into the sky, facing the Tribulation with joy and determination to destroy all obstacles in its path. Even the vast power of the Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation paled in comparison.
Everyone from the Immortal Sect felt it and collectively turned pale.
Xuan Xuzi exclaimed in disbelief: "Impossible! It absolutely cannot be Yandao Demon Lord! He practices the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique, harnessing the power of countless souls within him, burdened with numerous Vengeful Spirits' resentments and karma that cannot be purified. How could he possess such grand righteousness? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
While Xuan Xuzi continued to shout in disbelief, above them, Yun Jiuzi and the three Kunlun Elders let out a long sigh.
Yun Jiuzi said, "The Yandao Demon Lord is indeed an extraordinary genius. I don't know what method he used to cleanse himself of such heavy Vengeful Spirits karma. This aura is pure and vast; even our Immortal Sect's ascension is no match for it. The possibility of him overcoming the Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation is at least seventy percent. Alas, even if we conquer the Four Great Hidden Halls and eliminate all Demon Sect Monsters, we will still be defeated by the Yandao Demon Lord. This magnificent righteous aura has triggered the Tribulation, and the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique has already become an unparalleled skill that cannot be destroyed. It seems that the Demon Sect's lineage will not perish; perhaps in the next Spirit Realm War, the Immortal and Demon Sects will be reshuffled. We are powerless at this point."
The three Kunlun Elders also felt despondent, sighing deeply.
Every three thousand years, a great battle occurs between the Immortal and Demon Sects due to changes in the Spirit Scheme, but one thing cannot be denied: it is a struggle between righteousness and evil.
The Immortal Sect has always regarded itself as just, while the Demon Sect became known as such because their techniques are wicked. They previously enjoyed draining the blood and Nascent Souls of Immortal Sect cultivators for their practices, even hunting them as prey, which led to the formation of the Celestial Sect Alliance to counter them. Later, with the emergence of the Yandao Demon Lord, who improved Demonic Arts and created the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique, he absorbed a large number of mortal souls for cultivation, treating mortals as mere fodder. This incited outrage among both gods and men, thus he was also seen as evil, with the Immortal Sect vowing to eliminate him.
However, this Six Paths Reincarnation Technique surprisingly surpassed all the exquisite and righteous techniques of the Immortal Sect. The Yandao Demon Lord faced all the Immortal Sect leaders with the highest Nine Supreme Annihilation Heavenly Tribulation, on the verge of ascension. Moreover, when he ascends, his aura is so pure and righteous that it is a humiliation and a devastating blow to all Immortal Sect cultivators! For Yun Jiuzi and other proud Immortal Sect masters who are close to ascension yet have shown no signs of triggering their Tribulation, this is a direct and lethal strike against their Dao heart.
Li Hong fully understood Yun Jiuzi's meaning. Seeing him so dejected made him feel uneasy, but his intuition told him something was amiss; it wasn't as Yun Jiuzi thought.
Li Hong's blood surged with passion as he suddenly flew out and shouted loudly, "Evil beings are still evil beings! Even if they pretend to be righteous, they remain evil! I absolutely do not believe that such Demonic Arts can surpass our Immortal Sect's techniques honed over twenty thousand years!"
Li Hong's voice grew louder, echoing throughout the Desert until it shook the heavens:
"Fellow cultivators, heed my command! Withdraw one thousand miles immediately; no one below Heavenly Fusion Stage is allowed to remain within this distance!"
"Yandao Demon Lord, do you dare to come out and fight me? If you refuse to battle, I will strike when your final Tribulation approaches! In this battle, either you perish or I die!"
