It made sense. Whether or not the Lord of the Universe intended to give Ling Tian and the others the task of finding Primordial Chaos Qi, he wanted their strength to grow as much as possible. Using the most powerful tribulation to temper them would undoubtedly improve their strength to the greatest extent. So, if only for that reason, the Lord of the Universe wouldn't send them out of the universe just yet.
That meant Ling Tian and the others could still use the final tribulation tomorrow to attack the Lord of the Universe with all their might, undoubtedly affecting him significantly and weakening him further. Ling Tian and his companions were the strongest cultivators in all of history. Now, they had gathered so many powerful cultivators and set up formations combining the Myriad Sword Demon Extermination Grand Formation and the Buddha Kingdom World formation. Their all-out assault would certainly have a major impact on the Lord of the Universe.
It made sense. Back then, Venerable Sword Saint and the others had managed to affect the Lord of the Universe to some degree. Ling Tian was now far stronger than Venerable Sword Saint and his companions had been, and he had made so many preparations besides. It was only natural that he could have a major impact on the Lord of the Universe.
As for the guilt they felt toward the Lord of the Universe, Ling Tian and the others soon put it out of their minds. They had no choice but to do this for their friends and family. More importantly, as Little Squeak had said, if the Lord of the Universe attacked them, they couldn't simply stand there and take it without fighting back.
Once they thought it through, Ling Tian and the others soon let go of
