Ascending to the Upper Realm

Lin Zixue was also undergoing her tribulation, Tribulation Clouds gathering over the Top of Head.

She hovered in the air, Incineration Fire flowing Around the body. The first bolt of tribulation lightning fell, striking toward her flesh—that was her Body Refining Tribulation.

Lin Zixue formed hand seals, and Incineration Fire poured out from within her, devouring the thunder.

Li Chengjie looked at Lin Zixue hovering in the air, her aura constantly climbing, and rapidly calculated in his heart.

He had undergone the lightning tribulation first, and had already passed the Body Refining Tribulation and Soul Refining Tribulation. By rights, he should pass the Nine Heavens Tribulation first and become a Void Refining cultivator first.

Lin Zixue had only just begun; only the first bolt of tribulation lightning had passed. He was in no hurry to make a move.

Li Chengjie's seventh bolt of thunder fell. It was the first layer of the law tribulation, blasting toward Li Chengjie's understanding of the Law of Fire.

The thunder entered his body, but it did not strike his flesh, nor did it strike his soul. Instead, it directly attacked his comprehension of the Way of Nirvana.

The lightning tribulation contained fragments of the laws of heaven and earth. If he could refine and absorb them, his understanding of the laws would advance by leaps and bounds;

If he could not, the law fragments would burst his Sea of Consciousness apart, leaving him body and soul annihilated.

Li Chengjie formed hand seals, and Nirvana Fire poured out from within him, wrapping around the thunder.

The Crimson Gold Flame peeled away the law fragments contained within the thunder bit by bit, refining and absorbing them. Those fragments contained heaven and earth's understanding of "rebirth"—not a simple rebirth of the flesh, but the rebirth of laws.
