After sacrificing one life, he could still receive a reward anyway.

However... losing the rewards gained from his previous lives in Golden Spatula was not a good thing. He had no idea how it would work here.

Lan Lingcang then looked at the Old Blue Silver King. "Tell me, how long has it been since that Emperor took human form and left the forest?"

The Old Blue Silver King did not dare conceal anything and hurriedly recalled the timing.

"Reporting to the new Emperor, it has not actually been very long."

"Not long ago, she encountered two human Soul Masters training on the outskirts of the forest."

"Curious about the human world, she concealed her identity and blended in with them, traveling the continent alongside those two human Soul Masters."

Hearing this, Lan Lingcang sneered inwardly.

Two humans?

Traveling the continent?

Wasn't this the classic scene from the original story, where Ah Yin had just left the Star Dou Great Forest and met the Tang Hao and Tang Xiao brothers?!

With that, Lan Lingcang finally understood the current point in the timeline.

At this time, Tang San had not yet been born, and Ah Yin had not yet formed too deep a bond with Tang Hao. There was still time for everything!

He had every chance, and enough time, to set Ah Yin straight.

Whether Ah Yin would like him or not did not matter to Lan Lingcang at all.

But since he had now reincarnated as a soul beast, he had to consider the Blue Silver Clan. He absolutely could not tolerate the Blue Silver Emperor falling for Tang Hao or any other human.

Looking across the entire Douluo series, every transformed soul beast that fell in love with a human met a terrible end. One after another, they all ended up being sacrificed.

"Move farther away. I'm preparing to undergo the tribulation." Lan Lingcang glanced at the Old Blue Silver King.

The Old Blue Silver King was startled and hastily said, "You mustn't! You mustn't, Your Majesty! With the bloodline aptitude of our Blue Silver Clan, even someone at your level has almost no chance of surviving the heavenly tribulation."

"If not for that, the old... the former Emperor would not have chosen to take human form."

Calling Ah Yin the former Emperor felt rather awkward to the Old Blue Silver King, but he could not possibly address her directly as "Ah Yin." That would have been profoundly disrespectful.

Faced with the old man's alarm and attempts at persuasion, Lan Lingcang remained utterly calm.

He said lightly, "I know this Lightning Tribulation is formidable, but since I dared to trigger it, I naturally have my own confidence. You needn't worry blindly here."

"Go protect the people of the Ancestral Land immediately. Do not let them be affected by the aftershocks of the coming Lightning Tribulation."

"Go. I'll also devote part of my attention later and bring down my domain to protect you."

Seeing that the new Emperor was still concerned for their safety at such a life-or-death moment, the Old Blue Silver King was immediately overwhelmed by intense emotion.

But moved as he was, he still anxiously urged, "No, my Emperor!"

"Simply undergoing this terrifying heavenly tribulation already gives you almost no chance of survival. How can you divide your attention to protect us at a time like this?"

"You need only protect yourself!"

Lan Lingcang merely chuckled and asked in return, "If I can't even protect all of you, then how can I be your Emperor?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Lingcang no longer suppressed himself. The Demon Contract within him began operating with a thunderous roar once more.

In truth, Lan Lingcang knew perfectly well that with the Blue Silver Emperor's currently frail body, there was a high chance he would not pass this first heavenly tribulation unscathed.

Since he would be struck to death once either way, he might as well take this opportunity to raise the favorability of the clan members within the Ancestral Land.

As the Blue Silver Emperor, he naturally possessed bloodline methods that could forcibly control these lower-ranking clansmen.

But if he could make them sincerely submit to him and obey him willingly, why would he need to oppress them through forceful means?

Besides, he was genuinely curious what level of reward he would get from the [Nine Lives] Hextech after losing one life to heavenly lightning.

"Anything will do. Just don't let it be too bad. After all, it's being bought with one life."

Lan Lingcang silently prayed in his heart.

Soon, as his lifespan continued to be sacrificed, his cultivation reached 101,000 years.

Rumble!

Heaven and earth instantly responded. The already gloomy storm clouds in the sky darkened to the color of thick ink.

Violent lightning surged madly through the clouds, transforming into dazzling silver Thunder Dragons. Terrifying heavenly might locked firmly onto Lan Lingcang!

Lan Lingcang's gaze sharpened. The Blue Silver Domain spread out, and a brilliant blue-gold barrier directly shielded the Blue Silver Ancestral Land below.

After settling matters behind him, his solid pale-blue phantom rose straight from the ground and flew into the air, confronting the lightning head-on.

After his bloodline evolved into that of the Blue Silver Emperor, he had not only awakened the Blue Silver Domain with its extraordinary regenerative power.

He had also unlocked a brand-new ability: flight.

The instant Lan Lingcang took to the skies, he dearly wanted to complain that a blade of grass actually had flight among its innate abilities. It was absurdly out of place, but the ability undeniably existed.

Once the world-destroying aura of the heavenly tribulation spread, the low-level soul beasts throughout the Star Dou Great Forest immediately trembled in fear. They all prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to move.

At the same time, in the outer region of the Star Dou Great Forest's core area.

The surface of a clear lake suddenly began to churn violently.

With a tremendous splash, an incomparably massive bull's head emerged from the water. This colossal beast was Da Ming, the Sky Azure Bull Python, one of the overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Da Ming raised his enormous head and stared gravely at the oppressive tribulation clouds above.

"What violent lightning energy. A soul beast is actually beginning to undergo the 100,000-Year Heavenly Tribulation at this time?"

Besides the Sky Azure Bull Python, several other powerful figures stood near the lake.

Er Ming, the mountain-like Titan Giant Ape, was squatting by the shore.

Beside him stood Ah Rou, Xiao Wu's mother, who had already taken the form of a stunningly beautiful mature woman. Xiao Wu herself was also there, still a Soft Bone Rabbit who had yet to take human form.

The Titan Giant Ape spoke in a deep, booming voice. "I wonder which foolhardy soul beast has the nerve to face the heavenly tribulation."

"Auntie, Sister Xiao Wu, Big Brother, I want to get closer and see what's happening."

Ah Rou raised her head and looked toward the distant horizon before nodding gently.

"Alright, you may go take a look. But you must be extremely careful. Do not let the lightning affect you."

Near the Lake of Life.

Di Tian and the others had also sensed the arrival of the heavenly tribulation.

"How many years has it been? Another soul beast is about to undergo tribulation." A lazy yet seductive voice rang out. The speaker was Zi Ji, the Hell Demon Dragon King.

Meanwhile, Bi Ji, the Emerald Swan, frowned slightly and turned to look at the Ten Thousand Demon King beside her.

"You command the plant-type soul beasts. Can you sense who is undergoing the tribulation?"
