However, remember that this is just the beginning. The path of cultivation is long and arduous, and there are still many challenges ahead."

Wang Daoyuan let out a roar of pain. He quickly channeled his cultivation method, using the power of the Dragon God Manifestation to resist the lightning.
The dark cloud in the sky churned even more violently, and another bolt of lightning struck down.
Wang Daoyuan's expression turned even graver. He knew that he couldn't hold back any longer. He must use all his strength to face this tribulation.
He took a deep breath and stood up, his eyes filled with determination. "Ancestor, I'm going out to face this tribulation. I won't let you down!"
The Violet Lightning Earth Immortal nodded, a proud smile on his face. "Go, Daoyuan. Show the heavens your strength. Show them that you are worthy of the Violet Lightning Sect!"
Wang Daoyuan stepped out of the Spirit Pearl Space, emerging into the world outside. He looked up at the dark cloud in the sky, his expression resolute.
