"Heavenly Dao's face still has to be given!"

"Isn't it just making thunder beneath the Saints' very eyes?"

"We're not trying to kill Saint disciples. Those fellows won't disregard Heavenly Dao Might and directly tear open the Tribulation Clouds to investigate, will they?"

After a bout of complicated inner struggle, Mo Wen ultimately decided to give Heavenly Dao some face.

Though doing this was somewhat risky.

But whether one was a person... or a thunderbolt, one could not escape the ways of the world.

If he gave Heavenly Dao face now, wouldn't Heavenly Dao have to give him face later?

Besides, though those Saints were blessed by Heavenly Dao, they were also bound by it.

If Heavenly Dao Might appeared, those fellows might not actually dare to tear open the Tribulation Clouds and locate his Divine Sense.

With that thought, Mo Wen slowly turned to the Light Screen before him and searched for information on Saint disciples undergoing tribulation.

Many Treasures Pagoda, Jie Sect disciple, Golden Immortal, eligible for transformation!

Yunxiao, Jie Sect disciple, Profound Immortal, eligible for transformation!

Dizang, Western Teachings disciple, Profound Immortal, eligible for transformation!

Guang Chengzi, Chan Sect disciple, Profound Immortal, eligible for transformation!

"Guang Chengzi should count as the Head of Chan Sect's Second-Generation Disciples, right?"

"Then it'll be him!"

"..."

After seeing Guang Chengzi's tribulation information, Mo Wen could not help muttering to himself.

This time, Taiqing and Yuanshi had petitioned Heavenly Dao. By choosing a Chan Sect disciple as his target and sending down a thunder tribulation in response, he would also be following Heavenly Dao's will.

"Five-Nine Thunder Tribulation? It seems unworthy of a Saint disciple's innate origins!"

"Six-Nine Thunder Tribulation? A Profound Immortal—this fellow should be at the peak of the Profound Immortal realm, right? He should be able to withstand it, shouldn't he?"

"Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation? That's a bit dangerous!"

"What about Eight-Nine? What if it kills him?"

"..."

After hesitating again and again, Mo Wen still decided to send Guang Chengzi a Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation.

Guang Chengzi was no ordinary figure. His magical power was considerable, his innate origins exceptional, and he had Saints watching over him. Even if something went wrong, he would not die.

This way, everyone's face would be preserved, and he would have a chance to successfully send down a thunder tribulation—a situation where he benefited, they benefited, and everyone was happy.

That way, Guang Chengzi would not be like the Long-Arm Ape, thinking the thunder tribulation too weak, losing face, and acting as though he wanted to live or die over it.

Moreover, they said Chan Sect disciples followed the rules. Hopefully, Guang Chengzi would safely pass through the Transformation Thunder Tribulation and not cause the thunder tribulation he had risked so much to send down to fall short at the final step.

Having determined the might of the thunder tribulation, Mo Wen slowly split off a wisp of Divine Sense and sent it toward the Light Screen before him.

At this moment, atop Kunlun Mountain, the vortex formed from Heavenly Dao Might had yet to disperse.

This left Taiqing and Yuanshi somewhat puzzled. Hadn't Heavenly Dao just said that the time of opportunity had not yet arrived? Why had Heavenly Dao Might not concealed itself?

With it continuing to gather above Kunlun Mountain, they did not dare disperse lightly either.

It was not only them. The Chan Sect disciples kneeling below also seemed somewhat disappointed.

But without their Teacher's Imperial Decree, they did not dare leave and could only continue kneeling there.

"Buzz..."

After a long while, the Heavenly Dao Vortex in the sky suddenly trembled, and Heavenly Dao Might began to slowly disperse.

Taiqing and Yuanshi could not help exchanging a glance, both letting out a sigh.

With a flicker, the two returned before Three Purities Hall, seemingly intending to speak and comfort the Chan Sect disciples.

At that moment, Taiqing and Yuanshi seemed to sense something. A glint flashed in both their eyes as they raised their heads at the same time and looked toward where the Heavenly Dao Vortex was dispersing.

"That is... a thundercloud?"

"A Transformation Thunder Tribulation?"

"A Transformation Thunder Tribulation has actually descended!"

"It seems our petition has succeeded!"

"..."

Upon sensing that wisp of Tribulation Clouds, smiles appeared on both Taiqing and Yuanshi's faces.

It seemed that Heavenly Dao did not wish for the two Saints to lose face either, and had still sent down a Transformation Thunder Tribulation upon a Chan Sect disciple.

In this way, news that the two brothers had successfully petitioned Heavenly Dao would surely spread throughout the Primordial World, shocking the Myriad Races.

"Is that my Transformation Thunder Tribulation?"

"This feeling... that's right, it's my thunder tribulation!"

"Three thousand years... my Transformation Thunder Tribulation has finally arrived!"

"My thanks to Teacher, my thanks to Martial Uncle, my thanks to the Heavenly Dao..."

At that moment, among the many kneeling Chan Sect Disciples, Guang Chengzi's body trembled slightly, and an expression of utter delight surfaced on his face.

He could not help letting out bursts of excited laughter as he hurriedly bowed toward Yuanshi, Taiqing, and even the Heavenly Dao.

As Guang Chengzi's voice fell, the Tribulation Clouds overhead began to evolve and expand without end, as though they intended to blanket the entire sky.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother!"

"Congratulations, Senior Brother!"

"..."

The many Chan Sect Disciples all revealed envious expressions as they offered Guang Chengzi their congratulations.

Among them were also those capable of taking form. Like Guang Chengzi, they had waited for a long time, and naturally hoped this Transformation Thunder Tribulation was theirs.

The Saints and powerful figures from all sides who had been watching Taiqing and Yuanshi petition the heavens naturally sensed this as well.

All of them revealed traces of astonishment.

"It actually worked!"

"I wonder whether Guang Chengzi can successfully cross the tribulation!"

On a side peak of Kunlun Mountain, Tongtian wore a somewhat complicated expression. He could not help looking toward that expanse of Tribulation Clouds and muttering to himself.

"They actually managed to call down a Transformation Thunder Tribulation?"

"Does that mean the disciples of my Western Teachings will also have a chance to cross tribulation?"

"Once Junior Brother returns, we brothers should also petition the Heavenly Dao!"

Jieyin, atop Mount Sumeru, likewise had a gleam flash through his eyes.

Such a fine opportunity could not be claimed entirely by the Mystic Gate.

The Western Teachings also had two Saints. Why could they not petition the Heavenly Dao?

Within Nuwa Palace, Nuwa was also watching this matter closely. If this thunder tribulation could truly be brought about, she could make a trip to the Demon Race and join Di Jun and Taiyi in petitioning the Heavenly Dao, bringing blessings to the Demon Race's people.

At the summit of Kunlun Mountain, before the Three Purities Hall!

Yuanshi looked toward the exhilarated Guang Chengzi and nodded in satisfaction. "Seven layers of Tribulation Clouds—this should be a Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation!"

"Though it is not a top-tier Transformation Thunder Tribulation, being able to trigger such a tribulation at the peak of the Profound Immortal realm is already no small feat!"

"Today, I shall personally stand guard for you. Cross your tribulation without worry!"

"Go on. Do not disgrace me!"

"..."

Although this thunder tribulation was part of Taiqing's scheme, Yuanshi had calculations of his own as well.

The previous two Transformation Thunder Tribulations had both descended upon the Demon Race.

Yet those two ants of the Demon Race had failed to cross them successfully.

If one of his disciples successfully crossed tribulation, they would naturally seize a portion of the Primordial World's Fortune, greatly elevating the Chan Sect's prestige.

Thus, he was extremely invested in Guang Chengzi's tribulation crossing.

"Thank you, Teacher. This disciple will certainly not disappoint you!"

"Whether it is the Seven-Nine Thunder Tribulation or an even more terrifying thunder tribulation, this disciple has full confidence in crossing it!"

"..."

Guang Chengzi hurriedly answered, then bowed to Yuanshi once more.

Afterward, he slowly rose to his feet. An immensely powerful aura erupted from his body as he soared directly into the sky, gazing toward the dense Tribulation Clouds overhead.

In his heart, he had already decided that, before this vast audience, he would display the peerless might of the Chan Sect's foremost second-generation disciple.

To win back some face for his Teacher, for the Chan Sect, and for himself!
