"Is it finally coming?"

Suspended in the void, Xiao Yi suddenly lifted his head, staring at the dark oppressive tribulation clouds above, a hint of solemnity in his gaze.

Back when Xiao Tianjiao broke through to the Dharma Manifestation Realm, it had only drawn a tribulation that spread out for a hundred miles around.

But now...

He was merely stepping into the Tao Tribulation Realm and yet the tribulation it induced already faintly exceeded a hundred miles.

The dark, oppressive tribulation clouds were thick and gloomy, floating above the firmament like an all-encompassing hand as if to take control of this world within the grasp of a palm. Inside the black cloud mass, there was lightning and thunder.

Violet-gold thunder lit up heaven and earth.

Within the vastness of Great Liang Mountain, countless monster beasts were still desperately running amok.

Trying to escape to the skies.

Under the majesty of the heavens, all beings submit.

The one closest to Xiao Yi was doubtlessly Dongfang Kuang, his forehead streaming with cold sweat: "This kid... what kind of monster is he? Just for breaking through to the Tao Tribulation Realm, he actually drew such a terrifying heavenly tribulation..."

When he had broken through to the Dharma Manifestation Realm, the tribulation he had attracted had only covered a ten-mile radius.

At that time, it had nearly destroyed a city.

Whenever Dongfang Kuang recalled the terrifying scene of surviving that tribulation, he couldn't help but shiver with fear, his hair standing on end.

Until recently...

When Xiao Tianjiao stepped into the Dharma Manifestation Realm and elicited a tribulation that spanned a hundred miles, Dongfang Kuang had been astounded.

And now.

Not only had Xiao Yi broken Xiao Tianjiao's record, but he had also mastered the seven powers of Yin Yang and the Five Elements, and even upon stepping into the Tao Tribulation Realm, he had already attracted a heavenly tribulation, leaving Dongfang Kuang at a loss for words to describe his current feelings.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The wild winds sweeping through heaven and earth grew ever stronger, and where the storm passed, not a blade of grass remained.

Countless creatures failed to escape in time and were swept up high into the sky.

There, they were torn apart by the omnipresent ferocious winds.

It was truly terrifying!

Boom! Boom!

Within heaven and earth, numerous wild winds coalesced into a massive tornado storm, linking heaven and earth with tornadoes that twisted their colossal columns of wind, lifting rocks and uprooting grass and trees, and even small mountain peaks were being swept up into the sky.

The tempestuous wind and rain, in an instant, spread across most of Great Liang Mountain!

Terrifying!

Despair!

The end of days!

These were the thoughts shared by the countless beings within Great Liang Mountain.

Even some high-ranking monster beasts that had thought to wait for Xiao Yi's tribulation to fail and then take advantage of the chaos were now running madly towards the outskirts of Great Liang Mountain.

The might of the heavenly tribulation had not yet descended, and yet it had already struck fear into all living things.

"We've got to run... This kid is envied by the heavens!" Dongfang Kuang had intended to help Xiao Yi by preparing the sword array, but under the apocalyptic scene, he dared not linger any longer and turned to run towards the outskirts of Great Liang Mountain.

Along the way.

The monster beasts that normally fought upon sight now ran shoulder to shoulder with him.

Whether human or monster beast, there was only one thought at the moment—run!

By the time they reached the edge of Great Liang Mountain.

Yang Jin, the old eunuch, and other powerful beings arrived in quick succession, and their eyes immediately fell on Dongfang Kuang.

A flash of cold light flickered in the old eunuch's eyes, his face wearing a grim smile: "Dongfang, is this tribulation passer from your Dongfang family?"

Dongfang Kuang, upon seeing the look in the old eunuch's eyes, showed a hint of wariness.

This inconspicuous old eunuch was none other than one of the strongest warriors of the Great Qian Dynasty's royal family, a Peak Dharma Manifestation Realm existence.

Dongfang Kuang spoke gravely, "Old fellow, there's no need for you to fish for information here. I also felt the tribulation's fluctuations and rushed over, but..." Glancing at the tribulation clouds that almost covered half of Great Liang Mountain, he said with a wry smile, "This heavenly tribulation is just too terrifying!"

With these words spoken.

All eyes turned eagerly towards the tribulation clouds, with everyone nodding in agreement.

Even the few demonic beasts by his side looked on with faces full of shock, speaking in human tongue, "This king has never witnessed such a terrifying heavenly tribulation!"

"The person undergoing tribulation, if not a Great Demon inciting the wrath of heaven and the hatred of people, must be an unparalleled genius!"

Yang Jin squinted his eyes, sizing up the high-level demonic beasts, and said solemnly, "Gentlemen, have any of you seen clearly the one who is undergoing the tribulation?"

Dongfang Kuang shook his head and said, "Can't see clearly!"

The several demonic beasts also shook their heads, "Too terrifying, we simply can't see!"

Yang Jin and the others all frowned.

If it had been Dongfang Kuang, they might have suspected he was lying.

But since even these powerful demonic beasts said so, it obviously meant they had not seen clearly the person undergoing the tribulation, nor did they know the identity of that person.

"With such a terrifying heavenly tribulation, could it be that someone is breaking through the secret realm of immortality?"

"Impossible, the heavenly tribulation of the secret realm of immortality is far more terrible than this, it is said to be accompanied by the five disasters of heaven and man..."

"When Xiao Tianjiao underwent his tribulation, the Tianjian Sect set up a ninety-nine layered sword array for him, and Xiao Tianjiao, with the power of the sword array, forcefully shattered the heavenly tribulation. The scene was truly terrifying. This person suddenly appeared at Great Liang Mountain and does not have a grand array to assist; it is unknown how he will overcome the tribulation!"

"He chose Great Liang Mountain probably to make use of the mountain's numerous peaks to offset the power of the tribulation thunder. However, these ordinary mountains might not be able to withstand the thunder, and he is likely to die under it..."

Just as everyone was talking...

Boom!

A thunderous roar came from within the tribulation clouds.

In the sky above, within those black tribulation clouds that stretched over a hundred miles, a column of purple-gold thunder descended like a pillar of water. Amidst the rumble, the space where the thunder light passed seemed to be torn apart.

All of heaven and earth were shaken, and all beings were subdued.

Great Liang Mountain, which looked as dark as night under the press of the Black Cloud, was transformed into a sea of purple-gold under this flash of thunder.

The thunder struck directly at Xiao Yi.

Crackle and pop!

Xiao Yi shook violently, his body instantly turned charred black, and blood spurted from his mouth.

The first thunder alone was as powerful as a full blow from a peak Tao Tribulation Realm expert.

Of course.

If Xiao Yi had resisted with force, the thunder would not have made him spit blood.

But he did not defend, instead he completely opened up, calmly bearing the baptism of the tribulation thunder.

Under the heavenly tribulation...

He was actually cultivating the Wind Thunder Holy Body!

The Wind Thunder Holy Body requires the baptism of the heavenly thunder to temper the physical body and the Heaven and Earth Gangfeng to polish the body.

At this moment, under the heavenly tribulation, the Heaven and Earth Gangfeng was raging, and the thunder was the fearsome tribulation thunder.

It was indeed the perfect opportunity to cultivate the Wind Thunder Holy Body!

"With my body, baptized by heavenly thunder, tempered by Gangfeng, Wind Thunder Holy Body—"

Xiao Yi suddenly looked up, letting out a thunderous roar.

Enshrouded with a radiance of myriad colors, in the watchful eyes of numerous horrified experts, he not only did not dodge the thunder, but instead rose against the heavens and charged toward the rolling clouds of tribulation thunder, where dragons of lightning danced.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

The experts who had previously commented that Xiao Yi could not possibly succeed in his tribulation were stunned, "Has he gone mad? Instead of hiding, he heads straight towards the tribulation clouds?"

"Mad, truly mad!"

"Perhaps he knows that he cannot successfully get through the tribulation and has given up on himself?"

"Look quickly... the second thunder is coming down, and each one is stronger than the last. The power of the ninth thunder is a hundred times that of the first. Charging directly into the tribulation clouds, he might not even withstand the second thunder..."

At that moment...

The radiance of the thunder, many times thicker than the first, enveloped Xiao Yi with a boom.

There was silence between heaven and earth.

In the minds of the onlookers, the same thought arose simultaneously: "It's over..."
