"Fellow Daoist Ye..." Kong Qiang had long been watching closely. Seeing Ye Zhen's expression change, he suddenly turned his head and asked meaningfully, "Could it be that you know something about this black-and-white killing tribulation?"
"This..." Ye Zhen hesitated. Seeing Old Man Gu Qiong and Hao Yue Jushi both turn toward him, he pondered briefly before saying, "In truth, Ye has never seen such a killing tribulation either. Among the records of ascension tribulations preserved by my Ye family, there has never been such tribulation lightning. However, Ye suddenly recalled an ancient legend and gained some understanding."
"Please speak, Ancestor Ye!" Hao Yue Jushi asked with rare politeness.
"You honor me too much, Alliance Leader!" Ye Zhen did not dare be negligent and said in a low voice, "Legend has it that Immortals of the Immortal Realm are divided into two kinds: low-level and high-level. The low-level ones are like us cultivators of Yilin Continent, cultivating qi, except what they cultivate is immortal spiritual qi. High-level Immortals, on the other hand, cultivate spiritual light! If that is so, then wouldn't this black qi killing tribulation correspond to low-level Immortals? And this white-light killing tribulation... wouldn't it correspond to high-level Immortals?"
"Hiss..." The cultivators were greatly shocked. Old Man Gu Qiong could not help but murmur, "Then does that mean True Person Xiao and Thunderclap True Person...?"
"This is merely Ye's wild speculation!" Ye Zhen hurriedly waved his hand. "The ascension tribulation is Heaven and Earth's final test for cultivators of our Human Realm. Its forms are ever-changing and its methods bizarre. Who could possibly explain it clearly?"
"Since it is a white-light killing tribulation..." Kong Qiang gave a bitter smile. "How could cultivators of our Human Realm possibly escape this tribulation?"
