"Du Gujian!" I gritted my teeth. He had actually stopped me here. But I had no chance of winning against an Earth Immortal, so I swept my gaze around. Fu Qingyun had already gone to Quan Chanyu to protect her through the tribulation.
The matter of Quan Chanyu undergoing the tribulation to become a Demon Immortal had already attracted plenty of attention. How difficult was it for a Demon Immortal to undergo the tribulation? Demons defied Heaven and acted without restraint! Cultivators like that often took unorthodox paths. Their magical foundations were weak, and many of their abilities even came from external forces. Their tribulations were extremely dangerous—more terrifying even than those faced by ghosts and demons! The tribulations of orthodox Daoist cultivators were somewhat easier, after all, because their foundations were solid. Some even became Earth Immortals as naturally as water flowing into a channel, like Grandma. With a streak of golden light, she had become an immortal in broad daylight. That was the smoothest path, because when Grandma entered the Earth Immortal realm, her abilities were already almost on par with an Earth Immortal's. When she faced future tribulations, they would also be easier for her than for other Earth Immortals.
That was why all the ghosts of the Southern Ghost Gate took Quan Chanyu's tribulation extraordinarily seriously. Once she failed, they would have no choice but to face the revenge of the deep-sea ghost clan.
Quan Chanyu held the Ancestral Dragon Sword, and everyone was waiting for her to fail the tribulation. Then the sword's ownership would once again become uncertain. Who wouldn't want that thing that could chop an Earth Immortal apart as easily as slicing vegetables? So everyone followed Quan Chanyu to cause trouble while she underwent the tribulation.
