"Maybe yes, maybe no!"
Upon hearing the Shameless Cat's words, everyone turned their attention to Yang Zhen, who was undergoing tribulation in mid-air.
Tribulation is a process by which a cultivator truly comprehends the power of heaven and earth. This process is crucial for any cultivator. Whether they succeed, whether they can comprehend the power of heaven and earth during the tribulation, and how many levels of power they can comprehend are all factors that relate to a cultivator's future cultivation potential.
This is also why even those at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm have varying levels of strength; each person has different comprehension, different physical attributes, and therefore, different levels of understanding of the power of heaven and earth.
Seeing that Yang Zhen had actually spat out the most important Heavenly Tribulation Origin during his tribulation, everyone's faces showed a hint of astonishment. Some even wanted to rush up and claim the Heavenly Tribulation Origin that Yang Zhen had spat out as their own.
However, Yang Zhen's last attempt to seize the Heavenly Tribulation Origin was too coincidental. A slight misstep could have resulted in his annihilation. Even those at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm present dared not rush forward to face the Heavenly Ghost alongside Yang Zhen.
The Lightning Tribulation before us is a legendary special Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Ghost. If we rush in like this, and another Heavenly Ghost appears, then forget about seizing the Heavenly Tribulation Origin; whether we can even survive is still unknown.
No one cared why Yang Zhen possessed the Heavenly Tribulation Origin; that was no longer important. What mattered was that this alluring, shameless woman, Yang Zhen, had actually spat out the Heavenly Tribulation Origin in one gulp.
Mo Xueling's eyes widened, her face full of regret, as she stared at Yang Zhen and asked, "What on earth is Yang Zhen doing? Why is he abandoning the Heaven and Earth Origin?"
The Shameless Cat chuckled, not answering Mo Xueling's question, but muttering to itself, "What he doesn't want isn't the Heaven and Earth Origin, but the Heavenly Tribulation Origin. Damn it, this prodigy, what level of cultivation is he at, yet he can already distinguish this? How far will he grow in the future?"
Hua Youyue seemed to have heard what the Shameless Cat said. She turned her gaze to the Shameless Cat for a long time, but did not say anything. She then turned her attention back to Yang Zhen.
Seemingly sensing Hua Youyue's gaze, the Shameless Cat shivered for no reason, looked around in surprise, and muttered in confusion, "Damn, it's so cold!"
It seems that secrets are hidden everywhere in this world.
Yang Zhen looked up at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin containing Dao Intent, and then looked at the people on Flower Countenance Mountain.
The Heavenly Tribulation something many cultivators, even those at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, didn't know what he was going to do.
The three— the Shameless Cat, the Flirtatious Chicken, and the little girl—are no ordinary people. Even Han Yan'er, this Little Dao Addict Daoist fanatic, seems to be experiencing the secrets of the world as she enters the Dao Entry.
What exactly happened Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth that occurred ten thousand years ago? What was the world like in the ancient times, or even in the High Antiquity era?
Those legendary, powerful cultivators who were said to have shaken the world and whose words could Law Follows Speech have all vanished. Did they die, or did they ascend to immortality and transcend to another world?
These are all secrets that Yang Zhen doesn't know, even the truths that all cultivators are striving to find. Right before Yang Zhen's eyes is a truth, Yang Zhen doesn't know if he can grasp it, or how much he can grasp.
Damn it, in this situation, no one can help him. Even if that Shameless Cat knows something, he can't guide him at this time. Otherwise, it would be very detrimental to his future understanding of the Great Dao.
Having suppressed his cultivation for so long and accomplished so much, Yang Zhen was now on the Final Step of entering this stage, and naturally did not want to be influenced by external factors and make a judgment against his conscience.
Then we have no choice but to give it our all!
Yang Zhen looked up, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes. The Great Deficiency Sword in his hand suddenly erupted with a tremendous power, and Yang Zhen once again unleashed all the power within his body.
Roar--!
In mid-air, the second golden dragon roared and shook the heavens, while the Evil Shadow Black Taotie howled across the sky. The two enormous figures blotted out the sun and, with a boom, condensed into a huge Taiji Diagram in mid-air.
boom--!
With a burst of Golden Lotus Heavenly Fire, a Geng Gold True Pattern emanated rays of light, instantly embedding itself in the Taiji Diagram. Under its radiant light, it lay horizontally above Yang Zhen's head, suddenly shrinking into a gleaming palm-sized shape, which Yang Zhen grasped in his hand and pressed into the Great Deficiency Sword.
The Great Deficiency Sword suddenly unleashed a devastating shockwave, roaring and howling as if it possessed the power to destroy the world.
"Damn it, has this kid gone mad?"
"He... Yang Zhen, is he really going to confront Jie Yun head-on?"
Yue Yufeng and Jiang Zuolei exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief and a sense of absurdity in each other's eyes.
If you don't even want the Heaven and Earth Origin, what's the point of undergoing tribulation?
This was a question and confusion that suddenly arose in the minds of both of them... no, it was a question that suddenly arose in the minds of everyone present.
Just then, Yang Zhen suddenly leaped into the air, as if ascending to heaven in Ascend to Heaven in One Step.
boom!
A resolute aura burst forth from Yang Zhen, who stood in mid-air, defying the heavens.
Ascend to Heaven in One Step!
"Destroy this Sage of Saunter!" Yang Zhen's roar shook the heavens and the earth.
" The Heaven-Ascending Token! This is the Heaven-Ascending Token!"
"My God, this Heaven-Ascending Token can actually boost Yang Zhen's aura by such a huge margin... this is even more terrifying than the aura of many of the senior figures present."
"To contend with the heavens!" All the Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts present were shaken and muttered to themselves, while many others were completely bewildered.
Yang Zhen is defying fate!
Yue Yufeng looked at Yang Zhen with a surprised and uncertain expression, and said blankly, "Competing with Heaven? What is he competing with? What gives him the right to compete with Heaven?"
"He doesn't even want the Heaven and Earth Origin, what else is there for him to fight for?" Jiang Zuolei looked at Yang Zhen with a blank expression and muttered to himself.
Witnessing a tribulation is a great opportunity for everyone, including those Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts who have already successfully transcended their tribulations.
Everyone's understanding is different, and any unique tribulation can lead to different insights.
Of course, this is a typical tribulation!
If the tribulation being faced by everyone is one that is both alluring and shameless, then things are a bit unpredictable. It would be extremely fortunate if they couldn't comprehend anything at all; one wrong move and they might be led astray.
Yang Zhen's tribulation this time was a tribulation so alluring it was almost shameless, leaving everyone completely bewildered and confused. Only by looking at each other in disbelief could one truly understand the bittersweet feeling of being at a loss.
The Shameless Cat laughed loudly and said to the people around him, "Don't you dare follow in the footsteps of that Shameless Yang's footsteps. This is his path, his own path, and it has nothing to do with you."
Hua Youyue and Mo Xueling exchanged a glance, Great Master Su simply covered Tian Rou's eyes.
Palace Master Liu and the middle-aged man from Ink Pool Peak exchanged a glance and smiled bitterly. Although unwilling, they obeyed the Shameless Cat's words and turned their heads away.
Only Little Dao Addict violently, and his eyes once again sparkled with starlight.
The Shameless Cat let out a soft "Oh my!" and stared at the Celestial Person in Little Dao Addict, exclaiming repeatedly, "Damn, the title 'Shameless Yang' is truly fitting! And now I have an epiphany: what kind of inheritance has this little girl received?"
boom--!
A deafening roar echoed through the air. Yang Zhen Ascend to Heaven in One Step, shattering the Heavenly Tribulation Origin with a single sword strike. He then soared upwards and charged towards the gray tribulation clouds in the sky.
Buzz--!
Yang Zhen's momentum surged once again, and he unleashed his second step. His body shone with golden light, like a glowing golden ball, and amidst the gasps of countless people, he crashed headlong into the gray tribulation clouds.
"A crazy guy!" Yue Yufeng's old face was full of shock, but her eyes flashed with excitement, clearly she was already watching with great enthusiasm.
"If this young man succeeds, he will surely be remembered throughout the world!" Jiang Zuolei Lei nodded and said.
Just then, in the far north of Flower Countenance Mountain, a monstrous wave of energy suddenly erupted with a deafening roar. Endless golden light shot into the sky like a curtain, boundless and vast, accompanied by the resounding voice of the Great Dao, making people's hearts pound with fear.
Immediately afterwards, a series of earth-shaking sounds came from the ground, and the entire Flower Countenance Mountain began to shake. Countless rocks and soil flew up, trees collapsed, and amidst the flying sand and stones, ferocious beasts roared and birds soared into the sky.
"What... happened?"
Everyone stared in horror at the north, their expressions filled with utter shock.
Even the Shameless Cat was startled. It looked at the calamity clouds, then at the north, and let out a strange cry, "Damn it, kid, what have you done?"
