Who Let Him Cultivate?!

"Is someone about to make a breakthrough?"

"Judging by the direction of the Thunder Tribulation clouds, is it Sky Gate Mountain?"

"Is Eldest Senior Sister about to break through?"

"What nonsense are you spouting; would Eldest Senior Sister’s breakthrough cause such a small commotion?"

"Could it be the Sect Leader?"

"How long has the Sect Leader not returned?"

"Junior Brother Lu...no, that’s not right, he just broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage."

"It’s Gan Tian Senior Sister!"

Disciples and elders of the Seek Dao Sect all noticed the Thunder Tribulation clouds above Sky Gate Mountain. River Spirit poked its head out from the river’s surface, looking up at Sky Gate Mountain. It temporarily created a gap in the Sect Protection Array, allowing the Thunder Tribulation to pass through.

With the Sect Protection Array in place, the Thunder Tribulation would strike not Gan Tian, but the Sect Protection Array itself.

This was considered external interference with the Thunder Tribulation, and its power would only grow stronger. Even the Sect Protection Array might be damaged by it.

Lu Yang retracted his Invincible Nascent Soul, unable to deny that the little thing was indeed fast. Despite Lu Yang’s best efforts, he hadn’t been able to catch up, resigning to be the runner-up.

Gradually, spectators gathered at the foot of Sky Gate Mountain.

Even within the Seek Dao Sect, opportunities to observe someone breaking through to the Void Refinement Stage were rare, and each instance would attract a crowd eager to watch and learn.

"Junior Brother Lu, who is breaking through?"

"Third Senior Sister."

"So it really is Gan Tian Senior Sister."

Disciples of Dao Seeking Sect, various elders, and eventually even the small vendor selling mutton kebabs all arrived.

"This makes the fifth disciple to cultivate to the Body Integration Realm, right?" Fourth Elder said with a smile.

Yun Zhi, Ye Zijin, Dai Bufan, along with Fourth Elder’s eldest disciple Ji Hongwen.

"Wow, it’s quite a spectacle; even my uncle’s breakthrough to the Void Refinement Stage wasn’t this grand," Meng Jingzhou exclaimed. He had seen his uncle’s breakthrough, but he was young at the time and had only caught a glimpse of the event, not even clearly understanding the type of Thunder Tribulation.

He had been telling Old Ma about the exciting experiences in Chunjiang City when he saw something happening on Sky Gate Mountain and hurried over to join the excitement.

A deep, serene voice arose from behind Lu Yang and company: "I was just looking for you two."

The two turned abruptly, only to see Dai Bufan with an insincere smile.

Heaven knew what Dai Bufan felt when he saw the news about Chunjiang City; it was only twenty miles away from the black market he had told Meng Jingzhou about!

And to think they had vowed not to cause trouble for half a year?

However, after reading the report, Dai Bufan knew that this matter really couldn’t be blamed on Lu Yang and company.

But could you two cause any more trouble?

"Keep yourselves in line for the upcoming months. We’ll be recruiting new disciples soon, and you two should set a good example," Dai Bufan warned them.

The two honest people nodded vigorously.

"Look, the Thunder Tribulation is about to descend," Lu Yang shouted, pointing to the sky above.

The azure-purple Thunder Tribulation looked like towering waves, an oppressively dark mass tilting down, twisting space into a tangled twist.

Third Senior Sister stood right beneath the Thunder Tribulation, unflinchingly still, without any intention of even taking off her eye mask.

Dai Bufan commented from the side, "Gan Senior Sister is quite confident, huh? Her eyes are extraordinary—they’re a lethal weapon. She isn’t planning to take off her mask even during the Thunder Tribulation. It looks like she’s prepared to tough it out." Enjoy new tales from NovelBin.Côm

"What’s so different about Third Senior Sister’s eyes?" Lu Yang inquired.

"Those are the legendary Heavenly Eyes of an Immortal, said to be possessed only by Immortals. They can see through the Demon Race’s true form, ghosts and spirits, emit golden light, move mountains and split stones, break waves and cut through tides. What other mysteries they hold, I do not know," he explained.

"Fairy, have you ever heard of the Heavenly Eyes of an Immortal?" Lu Yang asked the great Fairy Eternity, turning to her after speaking to Elder Brother Dai.

"The lad surnamed Dai is right; she indeed possesses the Heavenly Eye of the immortal path. To say it’s an actual immortal’s eye is an exaggeration, for this girl hardly has the cultivation level strong enough to bear an immortal’s eye." The moment Fairy Eternity first laid eyes on the Third Senior Sister, she knew that her eyes were of the Heavenly Eye of the immortal path.

Covering one’s eyes with a black cloth could not escape the perception of immortals.

"The Heavenly Eye of the immortal path does have extraordinary traits. You could think of it as a special constitution, similar to an immortal body. Cultivators who possess the Heavenly Eye are indeed very powerful," she said.

As they spoke, the Thunder Tribulation descended, and without relying on any magic artifact, the Third Senior Sister contended against the Thunder Tri bulation with her physical body alone, making Lu Yang’s scalp tingle from the crackling sounds.

"This is the best way to Pass Tribulation, using magic artifacts to pass is considered inferior, using the force of the Thunder Tribulation to temper the body is the right path, at the very least that’s how the Yingtian Immortal originally designed it," she asserted.

The power of the Thunder Tribulation surged in an instant, catching the Third Senior Sister off guard. A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, quickly engulfed by the raging tribulation.

Fortunately, this wave of the Thunder Tribulation was over, with the sudden surge marking its end.

"Be careful, there’s another wave of Thunder Tribulation coming!"

An Azure Dragon composed of lightning coiled in the sky, its five claws extraordinarily sharp, capable of shattering the space with a mere clench.

Dai Bufan spoke with a worried face, "This is bad, this must be the Nine Heavens Azure Dragon Tribulation, said to be a Thunder Tribulation fashioned by the heavens and earth using the Dragon Clan Ancestor as a template."

This basically meant the might of the Dragon Clan Ancestor was acknowledged by the heavens and the earth, leaving an eternal imprint in the world.

In truth, Lu Yang knew that it wasn’t about the heavens and earth giving recognition, but rather the Yingtian Immortal directly using his younger sister as the manifestation of the Thunder Tribulation.

The common folk were unaware that the Yingtian Immortal governed the Thunder Tribulation, believing the current tribulation was a test bestowed by the heavens and earth.

It must be said, such a notion would definitely align with the Yingtian Immortal’s wishes.

Pluck, pluck, strum, strum.

The vibrations of the strings resonated, and clear sounds emerged as if trickling water manifested before everyone’s eyes.

Suddenly, a golden Phoenix appeared from nowhere, as if born from the melodies, soaring straight up to battle the Nine Heavens Azure Dragon Tribulation.

This scene provoked a chorus of exclamations from the crowd: "A clash between Dragon and Phoenix, a spectacle unseen for a millennium!"

"Is this the reward Eldest Senior Sister Gan Tian received in the Demon Territory?"

"Cultivation has always been symbolic. Could this mean that Eldest Senior Sister Gan Tian, like the Dragon and Phoenix, will soar between heaven and earth to become a supremely powerful being?"

"Very likely!"

Lu Yang silently watched everything, making no comment.

He looked back and forth yet felt it resembled less a struggle between Dragon and Phoenix, and more like the Qilin Immortal’s wives in a domestic squabble.

The battle between the Dragon and Phoenix concluded, and both disappeared.

Without giving the Third Senior Sister a moment to breathe, a cage-like black lightning descended, sealing off her escape routes.

"The Prison Descends, this is bad, it’s the Inner Demon Tribulation!" Dai Bufan’s expression changed. When the Inner Demon Tribulation descended, a cage would lock all paths. There was no retreat; it must be passed!

Dai Bufan looked anxiously at Gan Tian, who was trapped by the Inner Demon Tribulation.

The Inner Demon Tribulation would block all external information; no reminders could be given, and she could only rely on herself!

"Senior Brother, what’s the Inner Demon Tribulation like?" Lu Yang had yet to Pass the Inner Demon Tribulation.

Dai Bufan spoke gravely, "During the Inner Demon Tribulation, you’ll encounter the person you love, perhaps your best friend, your partner, your elder, or someone you cannot forget. Even if you realize they’re just Inner Demons, facing those who are indistinguishable from real people, you’ll still find it hard to strike!"

Figures of the Inner Demon Tribulation began to emerge within the prison.

Holding a horsetail whisk, radiating an immortal presence and the demeanor of a sage.

"Master?"

Lu Yang had a peculiar expression, thinking how his master’s appearance in the prison didn’t seem out of place at all.

"I wonder if the Third Senior Sister can bring herself to strike against Master?"

Just as Lu Yang was worrying for the Third Senior Sister, he saw her with no hesitation whatsoever, grabbing the ancient zither to smash against Daoist Buyu, then removing the black cloth covering her eyes to reveal a pair of sacred and profound eyes, from which golden light burst forth!
