Time flies, and the years pass like a song.
For Lu Ye, the Sixth Heaven posed no threat any longer.
During this time, Lu Ye broke out of his retreat again to give another lecture to the people of the Heavenly Gate. The lecture went fairly well, and another batch of people managed to cross their tribulation. Thanks to Lu Ye’s previous modifications to the Heavenly Gate’s techniques, this group’s success rate for crossing tribulation was significantly higher than that of other Void Realm cultivators.
Normally, the success rate for crossing tribulation is a mere ten percent, and those from the Void Realm daring to attempt it are even fewer.
This time, the success probability for these Heavenly Gate Void Realm practitioners had risen to sixty percent, which is a frightening success rate indeed.
The trials of earth, wind, water, and fire are truly terrifying.
Unbeknownst to them, one hundred and twenty years had already passed.
Lu Ye’s physique had stabilized a bit this time; perhaps it was because this current physique was already incredibly impressive.
This physique is known as the Heavenly Earth Divine Body.
It can absorb vast amounts of energy from the heavens and earth to further enhance itself, leading to exceptionally rapid cultivation speed. Coupled with the treasures he obtained in the Ancient Land of the Heavenly Corpse, Lu Ye’s cultivation progress had truly skyrocketed.
Today, he successfully advanced to the Eleventh Heaven of the Void Realm.
The Primordial Force within him had accumulated immensely, urgently needing a qualitative upgrade.
His Nascent Soul was plump, sporting a brilliant halo, looking relaxed and extremely comfortable.
It was time to ascend.
Lu Ye’s heavenly patterns erupted with radiant divine light.
He began to contact Emperor Dao Hen.
“Master, are you about to ascend?” Emperor Dao Hen inquired.
“Yes, Great Emperor. What did the powerful figures I asked you to contact say?” Lu Ye asked.
“Master, you truly had many friends in your past life. I contacted them, and they all expressed their joy and willingness to help. Every power agreed! They’re just waiting for your word!”
“Great! Then let them know it can begin. They can use the Chaotic Void Umbrella to conceal their Quasi-Emperors. No need to rush out; let’s first see how many forces will make their move this time.”
“With the Devouring Dao Beast present, even if their numbers are vast, they won’t easily collapse.”
…
Lu Ye methodically began making arrangements.
After finishing with Emperor Dao Hen, he then contacted Luan Xin.
Everything was set.
Lu Ye let out a sigh of relief. A brilliance sparkled in his eyes.
Almost there!
His figure vanished.
In that instant.
Lu Ye’s aura exploded forth.
A terrifying presence caused the heavens to change color. Countless strong cultivators, no matter how far away, suddenly opened their eyes wide in shock.
What is that?
How could there be such a terrifying aura?
Is this something that can appear in the Sixth Heaven?
Great Sage of the Nine Heavens, aren’t you going to do something?
“It’s Lu Ye!”
Someone immediately realized, it’s Lu Ye!
Only Lu Ye could emanate such a dreadful aura, one capable of fighting and winning against two major realms.
Only he was that monstrous.
Is he about to ascend?
Many felt ecstatic inside.
Is he really going to ascend?
Hahaha, great! So great!
Countless streams of light flew toward the direction of Lu Ye’s releasing aura.
The sky was filled with beams, painting a breathtaking scene.
The Vermilion Bird trio also sensed this aura and suddenly woke up.
Shangguan Huanling’s face turned pale.
Brother Lu Ye is about to ascend!
He really doesn’t care about her anymore. He should know that once he ascends, she will either be left in the dust or never be able to follow in his footsteps!
Even Shangguan Huanling, no matter how clueless, now understood that Lu Ye was not joking this time, not testing her. He was genuinely going to abandon her and separate from her.
“Brother Lu Ye definitely…”
Shangguan Huanling wanted to find an excuse.
But she couldn’t!
She really couldn’t find one!
She…
Huh?
No way!
Shangguan Huanling suddenly thought of something and her eyes gradually brightened.
No, no!
What Brother Lu Ye is doing now is likely his final trial for her.
This is the last challenge he has set for himself.
If she could find a way to catch up to him, then Brother Lu Ye would surely see her sincerity!
Right!
It must be like that.
This trial is extremely difficult.
She absolutely wouldn’t let Brother Lu Ye down!
“Vermilion Bird, Elder, let’s go watch the excitement and congratulate Brother Lu Ye on his ascension!”
Shangguan Huanling rallied with newfound determination.
The Vermilion Bird and Sun Ruowei exchanged glances, puzzled by what Shangguan Huanling figured out this time, but they said nothing more and flew toward the Heavenly Gate.
Lu Ye’s crossing tribulation stirred up a storm throughout the entire Sixth Heaven.
That terrifying aura was like a gigantic sun exploding between heaven and earth, impossible for anyone to ignore.
Numerous strong cultivators gathered at the Heavenly Gate.
The people of the Heavenly Gate also swiftly mobilized to maintain order.
Dark clouds began to gather in the sky.
Calamity Energy roared in like a tidal wave.
Little Heavenly Dao and Shen Xitang were constantly ramping up the intensity for Lu Ye.
“Ding, increase the intensity, crank it up more!”
“Beep, I’m on it, big sister!”
“Ding, max out the strength!”
“Beep, big sister, won’t the host get mad at us?”
“Ding, don’t worry! He definitely won’t! The host loves to cross the most ferocious tribulations; I know him well!”
“Beep? Really?”
“Ding, absolutely! Otherwise, why do you think he was always helping others cross tribulations in his past life? Even assisting during the Great Emperor tribulation? It’s because he found his own tribulation too weak, so we’re going to max it out for him; then he’ll be satisfied.”
“Beep, that makes sense!”
With the support of these two good buddies, the Calamity Energy around Lu Ye thickened to a horrifying extent; from ancient times to now, no one had generated such dense calamity energy while attempting to cross tribulation at this level.
The laws manifested.
The vague figure of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens appeared between heaven and earth.
But he wasn’t here to clean things up; he was just ensuring that the concentration of calamity energy might not harm the Sixth Heaven. He needed to keep an eye on things.
He wasn’t here for a show.
Such overwhelming calamity energy caused numerous Void Realm cultivators to turn pale and retreat repeatedly, afraid of getting caught up in the calamity with Lu Ye.
This isn’t a joke.
At this moment, calamity clouds began to appear throughout the Sixth Heaven, and an immense storm of calamity clouds began to gather furiously.
The entire Sixth Heaven began to dim.
The sky lost its light.
It was as if a scene of world extinction.
Didn’t they say that Lu Ye had a good relationship with the Heavenly Dao? After all, Lu Ye is the sect master of the Heavenly Gate, recognized by the Heavenly Dao. Why is he now being targeted this way by it?
The edge of the calamity clouds was indeterminate.
Fortunately, the calamity energy didn’t spread as wildly as the clouds; if it did, the entire Sixth Heaven would likely accompany Lu Ye in crossing tribulation.
Once the calamity clouds took shape, they quickly converged.
A massive eye appeared above Lu Ye’s head, totally formed from the calamity clouds, staring down at him.
Lu Ye stared back at the eye.
Hmmm…
The eye suddenly revealed a hint of playfulness.
