Mysterious Sun Planet, Hundred Beasts Market.
Within a sprawling manor, Beast True Person sat in a stone pavilion, his face slightly pale as Fang Yufei and Fang Yuruo reported to him.
Beast True Person wore a broad smile. Born a Rogue Cultivator, he had established his own power after advancing to the Spirit Transformation stage. Through his own efforts, he had entered the Void Refinement stage, free at last from the constraints of lifespan. It had been no easy feat.
Along this road, he had endured untold hardships. The most dangerous time was when he had been poisoned by a strange toxin and nearly perished, his Dao extinguished.
"Patriarch, the Han Clan, Wang Clan, Nangong Clan, and Myriad Dharma Sect have all sent people to offer congratulations. Would you like to see them?"
Fang Yuruo asked with a smile. Now that Beast True Person had advanced to the Void Refinement stage, powers from every side had dispatched representatives to congratulate him.
"No need. Send people to gather spiritual pills and miraculous medicines for healing. I was seriously injured in order to survive the Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation and need time to recuperate."
Beast True Person gave the order. The Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation had been far too powerful, even drawing down two dual-colored divine lightning bolts. Every defensive treasure in Beast True Person's possession had been destroyed, and he himself had suffered severe injuries, nearly dying beneath the tribulation lightning.
What he needed to do now was heal his wounds. Having entered the Void Refinement stage, he no longer faced limits on his lifespan; the troublesome matter was the Great Celestial Tribulation.
Void Refinement cultivators faced a Great Celestial Tribulation every three thousand years, with a margin of error of several hundred years—it might come several centuries early or several centuries late.
