The Xuan Huang Killing Sword's... consciousness!
Precisely because Yu Ci understood what that was, he did not hesitate in the slightest, lunging straight forward to protect it.
Tribulation fire was not to be trifled with. Reckoned from the day Yu Ci was suppressed by the Zi Wu Magnetic Mountain, the Three Suns Tribulation had loomed over a thousand miles of strata above for well over five days, and before that, over a month of shifting could also be counted as a kind of accumulation. Above the surface, to what extent the tribulation fire had accumulated was something Yu Ci could not calculate. Yet in this instant, transcending the limits of the void and erupting from nothingness, the tribulation fire truly possessed the power to melt gods and dissolve forms.
Derived from the fish-dragon and further infused with the True Dragon Form Qi within the Cloud Tower Tree, the True Dragon Form Qi Yu Ci had gathered could already be considered of the very highest order in this realm. Previously, when resisting ghostly soldiers and the killing intent of divine souls, it had achieved great feats, but now, under the tribulation fire, well over half of it turned to smoke. It could be said to be the greatest loss he had suffered since the days of borrowing the Haodian Sword Immortal's dragon-slaying power to heavily wound He Qing.
Yu Ci, however, had no time to grieve, and moreover, this loss was well within expectations.
Once a boundary was formed, one grasped its "principle." Within it, one would not be deluded by outward appearances; so-called "seeing the great in the small."
Since the Three Suns Soul Seal was present and the tribulation fire had yet to emerge, Yu Ci had sensed it—this was also the innate sensitivity of longevity practitioners toward tribulations.
