An Ancient Tribulation Transcendence Expert

"No, there's something wrong with the rules here." Yun Zhi frowned; she noticed something was amiss as soon as she made a move.

Her palm strike should have shattered the rules of this place, but in fact, the rules are dispersed in form but not in spirit. Even if she had held back her strength, it shouldn't have.

"There are two kinds of [rules] here." Yun Zhi realized something was wrong. The first kind, written in clouds, was the original rule. Later, a mutation occurred, and a second kind of rule appeared, which was written in blood.

The conflicting rules have plunged the entire cave into chaos!

Someone deliberately created chaos in the cave, making it possible to enter but impossible to leave!

Furthermore, the fact that the second rule, as an external rule, can contend with the original rule indicates that the person who left behind the second rule is more powerful than the owner of the cave!

Sanli True Person was at the peak of the Body Integration Realm.

"Hehe, who dares to disturb my slumber?"

The sound of ice crystals shattering rang out, followed by an overwhelming aura erupting from the finish line, like a king from the heavens, cold and ruthless, looking down upon the world.

A beam of light pierced the sky, its aura sending chills down one's spine.

The aura grew stronger and stronger, threatening to sweep away everything in its path.

"Early stage of Tribulation Transcendence." The Immortal Fairy quickly determined the other party's realm.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou's expressions changed drastically. This was the strongest enemy they had ever encountered in the early stage of the Tribulation Transcendence. Why was a Tribulation Transcending Realm expert sleeping in a grotto-heaven of the Body Integration Realm Tribulation Transcendence?!

The Immortal Fairy, being knowledgeable and experienced, quickly figured out the reason.

"It's easy to understand. A cave heaven is a good hiding place. Awakening in a cave heaven allows one to gradually recover their strength. The downside is that one cannot detect changes in the outside world in time. For example, True Person Sanli sensed changes in spiritual energy and woke up accordingly, but if it's someone in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, they might not wake up even after the Great World War is over."

"So he had a very clever plan. Once True Person Three True Person awaken, they will inevitably return to the cave. When the Three True Person realize the change in the [rules], they will definitely take action. At that time, he will be awakened by the Three True Person's actions."

"The new rules established in this grotto-heaven during the Tribulation Transcendence stage are to ensure that those who mistakenly enter this place die, so as not to disturb his slumber."

Lu Yang broke out in a cold sweat, never expecting such complicated factors behind it.

"Hey, what are you afraid of? With me here, I can kick that mere early-stage Tribulation Transcendence cultivator to death with one kick." Huang Doudou boasted shamelessly, knowing that with Yun Zhi around, it wouldn't be her turn to make a move.

"I am the Blood Demon Venerable. Who are you? State your name." The Blood Demon Venerable looked at the senior sister coldly. To be able to easily break the rules, the other party must be at least in the early stage of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.

But so what? He was confident that he could hold his own even against a mid-stage Tribulation Transcendence expert.

"The Blood Demon Venerable?!" Meng Jingzhou exclaimed in a low voice.

"You know him?" Lu Yang asked.

"I know him." There aren't many people at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, and each one deserves to be written about in history books. That's why Meng Jingzhou had heard of the Blood Demon Venerable's name. When he was a child, he couldn't sleep, and his mother often used the Blood Demon Venerable to scare him.

"The Blood Demon Venerable was a Devil Cultivator who killed countless people. Legend has it that he wrote down the names of all the cities in the world on slips of paper, crumpled them into balls, and used the people of whichever city he captured to cultivate. His path to cultivation was paved with withered bones!"

"He also supported a Yu emperor and became the Imperial Preceptor, wielding immense power in the Great Yu Dynasty. Later, he disappeared without a trace. Some say he committed numerous evils and died under a lightning tribulation. Now it seems he's hiding here!"

"The Ask Dao Sect, Yun Zhi."

Seeing that Yun Zhi remained unmoved, the Blood Demon wondered, "Has my name not been passed down to this era?"

Very well, then let's have a great slaughter and let the world know my name.

The Tribulation Transcendence Stage and the Body Integration Realm are different; after awakening, they can quickly return to their peak state.

A crimson giant stood tall, roaring and howling. The crimson giant transformed the [rules] into an axe, and with a gentle swing, the space trembled, as if the entire cave heaven could not withstand its power!

Yun Zhi held one hand in front of her chest, radiating boundless golden light, like a compassionate Buddha stepping out of a mural, sacred and supreme, inviolable and indecent.

She unleashed a palm strike, and countless golden rays pierced through the netherworld, striking the blood-red giant.

The crimson giant blocked with its twin axes, but the twin axes formed by the [rules] gradually melted away amidst thousands of golden rays, along with the crimson giant's hard shell.

The Blood Demon Venerable was shocked. "No, you're not in the early stage of Tribulation Transcendence!"

He tore through space, turned and ran. Fighting a mid-stage Tribulation Transcendence Transcending expert was a close call, and there was no need to provoke such an enemy out of spite; it wasn't worth it.

After tearing through space, you will be randomly teleported to any location in the world, and the other party will absolutely not be able to find you.

Just as the Blood Demon Venerable was about to burst into laughter and utter some harsh words, he saw an infinitely dazzling golden light before him, and from within the golden light, a beautiful figure gracefully walked towards him.

The figure appeared to walk slowly, but in reality, she moved with incredible speed, appearing in front of the Blood Demon Venerable in the blink of an eye.

"No, you're not even in the mid-stage of Tribulation Transcendence. Even those in the late Tribulation Transcendence don't have this kind of skill. You're at the peak of Tribulation Transcendence, or even higher..."

"You know too much," Yun Zhi replied coldly, squeezing out the Blood Demon Venerable's soul with a twist of her hands.

A body at the Tribulation Transcendence stage is the best material for refining weapons and should not be easily broken.

Yun Zhi took out the Jade Purification Bottle, put the Blood Demon Venerable's soul into it, and prepared to return to the sect to slowly torture him.

The whole process was relaxed and pleasant, the cave was serene and peaceful, as if nothing had happened.

The lion and the antelope danced a duet, their relationship harmonious, trying to prove they were good Demon Beasts, while the elephant lay on the ground, feigning death with its four legs in the air.

"It seems that the ancient Tribulation Transcendence Stage might be hidden in the grotto-heaven." Yun Zhi pondered, something she hadn't considered before. After leaving the grotto-heaven, she would tell the other four immortal sects and the Great Xia Dynasty about this.

"Let's go." Yun Zhi left behind these words lightly, and took light steps toward the finish line.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou exchanged a glance, then jogged after him.

There was no danger along the way—at least that's how Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou perceived it.

But to the Demon Beast, it was a completely different scene—a terrifying Great Devil King exuding a chilling aura of frost, leading her two attendants, roaming freely through the cave, posing an extreme danger.

The three arrived at the finish line, where several huge golden treasure chests and piles of Spirit Stones were placed. The number of top-grade Spirit Stones was even greater than that of high-grade Spirit Stones, making them extremely tempting.

This place not only contains the treasures of the Three True Person, but also some of the items belonging to the Blood Demon Venerable.

Yun Zhi opened the golden treasure chest, which contained all sorts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures and Cultivation Method Secret Manuals, dazzling Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. Even with Meng Jingzhou's knowledge, he couldn't discern the origins of these heavenly materials and earthly treasures for a moment.

Yun Zhi could easily identify the names and effects of these things. "Dragon Transformation Grass, when swallowed and refined by a dragon, can increase the chance of transforming into a dragon by 30%."

Transforming into a dragon is the dream of all dragons; it goes without saying how valuable that transformation is.

"The Bodhi fruit, when consumed, can enhance one's wisdom, but the price is the permanent loss of hair."

"Crimson Sun Vajra Sand, an essential material for refining high-level fire-attribute Law Treasure."

"The Pure Water of the Azure Sky, when applied to the entire body, can preserve the physical body for 100,000 years without decay."

"The Body Integration Realm Demon Beast..."

"Dragon Tendons in the Body Integration Realm..."

"Hehuan Powder..."

There are more treasures in the combined generation.
