They had thought the final tribulation triggered by tens of thousands of groups of cultivators would consist of tens of thousands of Tribulation Clouds, each covering the cultivators beneath it. They had never expected the tribulations of so many people to gather together. All the Tribulation Clouds had merged into one mass, then pressed down heavily. The black clouds above looked ready to crush the city beneath them. Countless cultivators' expressions turned grave, and many even regretted triggering the final tribulation alongside Ling Tian and the others. This was especially true of the cultivators near them. Ling Tian and his companions stood at the very center of the Tribulation Cloud, and there was no doubt that the closer cultivators were to them, the more powerful the tribulation they faced—and the greater the danger.
At that moment, many cultivators began to envy those who were undergoing tribulation in the central region of the God Realm, especially after sensing that the Tribulation Clouds above those cultivators were far weaker than the one looming over them.
The cultivators beside Chi Xue and the others were just as troubled. After feeling the pressure the Tribulation Cloud exerted on them, they had once again lost all confidence in surviving the tribulation.
But Ling Tian's words now gave them hope. He had said that as long as they could pierce the Tribulation Cloud above them, it would be much easier for the other cultivators to disperse theirs. When they remembered that more than a million cultivators would undergo tribulation alongside them, their confidence rekindled.
It made sense. If Ling Tian and the others pierced the Tribulation Cloud above them, even a hole punched through it would weaken the surrounding clouds. That would make it easier for the other cultivators to pierce the clouds above their own
