Forces with Immortal Realm experts rose to an even higher level; those without them had been stripped of all foundations.
Some transcendent factions were already preparing to disband. They had only around twenty foundational experts in total, and all of them had gone to undergo Tribulation Transcendence, taking every resource from the treasury with them.
Yet every one of them had failed their tribulations. They were all dead.
That transcendent faction could only face the fate of being swallowed up. They had truly been unlucky beyond measure.
Having hope of becoming immortal was one thing; whether one could seize that hope was another.
With so many powerful figures falling and returning their energy to heaven and earth, the Xuanhuang Great World finally caught its breath and could hold on for a little longer.
Once the tribulations were over, a message was transmitted into the minds of all those peak experts. Even Ye Lin received one.
Its meaning was roughly this: kill an Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, and one would receive merit as a reward. The more one killed, the greater the merit reward.
And the stronger the one slain, the greater the merit reward as well.
This message carried a vast, supreme aura. Clearly, it was the work of the world's will.
Ye Lin, however, smiled. He truly had not expected the world's will to make such a move, but it was also the best possible bait.
The Immortal Realm experts who had successfully passed their tribulations were now poorer than the next. In their pursuit of immortality, they had paid any price without hesitation. After becoming immortals, they had become paupers.
The poorest Immortal Realm experts in history.
Thus, they simply could not refuse the reward of merit. Merit being a cure-all was no empty saying.
