I took the box back with me, but I had no clue where to begin comprehending this thing. After thinking for a long while, I could only set it aside. Quite a few people came to ask what had happened outside along the way, but I covered it up by saying I was experimenting with the Ghost Dao Staff. After all, having left the Divine Tower of the Heaven's Unity Sect some distance away, everyone had only seen a black dot.
The Tiangang Sect, however, had sent Suo Qing to investigate for a long time. I simply didn't know whether she could find anything useful, but even if she did, it wouldn't matter much. Keeping them wary of making a move against me wasn't a bad thing.
He Suoneng and He Luanzi, father and son, had both returned. During the remaining five days, they also had to actively contact their backers. Otherwise, once the five sects arrived, they would be nothing more than meat on the chopping block.
After tossing the box aside, I began working hard to break through to the seventh tribulation. After all, without a rise in tribulation level, I ultimately had no confidence. As things stood, the sixth tribulation was nowhere near enough.
I didn't know whether it was because a massive amount of ghost energy had entered my body earlier, but this attempt to break through my limits went unexpectedly smoothly. I encountered tribulation without passing through too many barriers. Encountering tribulation was the foundation for breaking through one's tribulation level; without putting oneself in a life-or-death situation and finding a way to survive, breaking through the barriers was no easy feat. This time, however, I seized the opportunity perfectly. After breaking through layer upon layer of obstacles, I successfully reached the seventh-tribulation True Immortal
