Everyone present was startled. Not only did the Shameless Cat look at Jieyun and Beifang with astonishment, but most people looked at Jieyun with horror.
Just as Yang Zhen rushed into the tribulation clouds, such a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the north. Even from a thousand miles away, the entire Flower Countenance Mountain was shaken like this. What terrifying power must have been unleashed there?
But isn't Yang Zhen undergoing a tribulation?
Why did such a big commotion occur?
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, another earth-shattering change occurred within the Heavenly Ghost Tribulation Clouds.
After Yang Zhen broke into the raging tribulation clouds, they seemed to boil over. Countless streams of heaven and earth power seemed to pierce through the heavens and earth, crashing down from the sky. Countless thunder dragons surged and tumbled, pouring into the gray tribulation clouds.
boom--!
The tribulation clouds exploded, and endless shockwaves surged in all directions, sweeping across the heavens and earth in the blink of an eye. Everyone was so frightened that they scrambled to their sides, their faces filled with horror.
"Damn it, what exactly is Yang Zhen trying to do? Why is the Heavenly Ghost unleashing such terrifying power?"
A cultivator who couldn't escape was struck by a remnant of a lightning dragon. He immediately began to tremble, foaming at the mouth and convulsing on the ground, his handsome face contorted in pain.
This was merely a remnant of a lightning dragon; the rest, far more ferocious, were still churning and roaring within the tribulation clouds.
Yang Zhen, however, was still shrouded in the clouds of tribulation.
The two rascals Shameless Cat and Flirtatious Chicken, exchanged a glance, both showing expressions of shock.
Suddenly, a series of hysterical screams echoed from within the clouds, "Holy crap, it hurts so much..."
Everyone: "..."
If you're screaming like that, what's with the pain? What are you trying to do in there?
No one could enter the tribulation clouds and still shout so loudly. In fact, even among all the Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts present, no one had ever heard of anyone being able to rush into the tribulation clouds during their tribulation.
Is that something a human cultivator can just walk into?
While everyone was still dumbfounded, Yang Zhen's aura surged again, and with a roar, he yelled, "Break for this Sage of Saunter!"
boom--!
Another earth-shattering, violent wave surged forth from all directions.
This time, the calamity clouds actually exploded.
The dark clouds that had filled the sky, along with the menacing and terrifying Lightning Tribulation, slowly dissipated, leaving only Yang Zhen leisurely putting on his clothes.
Sunlight streamed down on the earth, shining upon everything, including the bewildered faces of everyone.
Yang Zhen stood alone in mid-air, with a Heavenly Tribulation Origin radiating a terrifying aura beside him!
"This origin... this origin..." Yue Yufeng trembled all over, staring incredulously at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin in mid-air, unable to even speak coherently, "Impossible, this kind of origin is so much stronger than ours?"
Jiang Zuolei was also stunned, staring blankly at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin in mid-air. He shook his head and said, "This is unheard of! Could this be the Heavenly Tribulation Origin Heavenly Tribulation? But... it's too powerful! It's like it's survived dozens of Heavenly Tribulation."
The more Heavenly Tribulation one overcomes, the stronger one becomes; the more powerful the Heavenly Tribulation Origin one obtains after safely surviving the baptism of lightning.
What everyone felt was somewhat unfair was that Yang Zhen had only undergone his first tribulation and already obtained such a powerful Heavenly Tribulation Origin. Just how powerful would his future tribulations be?
Now, surrounded by such a rich aura of the Heaven and Earth Origin, if Yang Zhen absorbs this Heavenly Tribulation Origin, the Heaven and Earth Origin he can comprehend will certainly be quite considerable.
Everyone was filled with envy and even a bit of fervor. It turned out that once you survived the special Heavenly Tribulation and persevered to the end, you could actually obtain such a powerful Heavenly Tribulation Origin.
This risk... was well worth it, but even after witnessing such a powerful Heavenly Tribulation Origin, none of the people present dared to try to undergo the special Heavenly Tribulation.
The power of heaven and earth unleashed by the Heavenly Ghost was truly terrifying; perhaps only a prodigy like Yang Zhen could survive it safely.
But... I'm so envious!
Everyone looked at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin in mid-air with envy, then suddenly felt a jolt in their hearts.
Yang Zhen... he just destroyed the Heavenly Tribulation Origin, is he going to destroy this one too?
Seeing Yang Zhen dressed and looking at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin with such disdain, everyone felt as if their hearts had been gripped tightly. Some cultivators with weaker mental fortitude even instinctively changed their expressions and cried out, "No!"
The sudden sound startled everyone who hadn't yet reacted.
Then, everyone witnessed something utterly infuriating.
Faced with the Heavenly Tribulation Origin that everyone coveted, Yang Zhen actually took out the Great Deficiency Sword, looking as if he was pondering where to start.
" Yang Zhen, are you crazy? You finally succeeded in transcending the tribulation, are you really going to destroy the Heaven and Earth Origin?" Yue Yufeng hurriedly shouted at Yang Zhen, fearing that Yang Zhen might actually have a fit of madness and cut down the Heavenly Tribulation Origin with a single sword strike.
Upon hearing Yue Yufeng's words, everyone nodded subconsciously, staring nervously at Yang Zhen's hand.
Yang Zhen was taken aback, looked at Yue Yufeng in the crowd, and suddenly shook his head, saying, "This is not the Heaven and Earth Origin!"
Not the Heaven and Earth Origin?
Everyone was stunned, exchanging bewildered glances, wondering what Yang Zhen was up to now. The very thing that so many Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts had been tirelessly seeking for so many years had been denied by Yang Zhen with a single sentence: it was not the Heaven and Earth Origin.
Do you even know what you're saying?
After glancing at Yue Yufeng, Yang Zhen stared at the mysterious and illusory Heavenly Tribulation Origin before him, muttering to himself, "This is not the Heaven and Earth Origin and earth, at most it is just the Heavenly Tribulation Origin of the Heavenly Tribulation. These are two different concepts, or rather... this is simply a Will of Heaven and Earth, a kind of order, a means by which the heavens bind living beings!"
At this point, Yang Zhen felt a sense of enlightenment wash over him, and he said with burning eyes, "Yes, this is merely a means by which Heaven and Earth bind all living beings. But how can I, this Sage of Saunter, allow you to bind me so easily?"
Yang Zhen slowly raised the Great Deficiency Sword in his hand. Amidst a collective gasp, he took a step forward, and a towering black wave of energy suddenly erupted from the Great Deficiency Sword.
boom--!
The black aura was like a raging fire. Yang Zhen slashed down at the Heavenly Tribulation Origin with his sword, and the world changed color. At the same time, the faces of the thousands of cultivators on Flower Countenance Mountain also changed color.
Buzz!
Everyone's hearts were in their throats, but Yang Zhen's Great Deficiency Sword stopped before the Heavenly Tribulation Origin. One more step forward and it would have destroyed it.
Countless sighs of relief rang out, and many cultivators who had been left in a limbo by Yang Zhen began to mock and curse, "Damn it, what about destroying the Heaven and Earth Origin? In the end, they just couldn't bear to part with it. It's actually quite good!"
"In my opinion, Yang Zhen is just putting on an act and trying to attract attention. Only a fool would be willing to destroy such a precious treasure of heaven and earth."
"Yes, we finally survived the Heavenly Ghost, and now we're destroying the most important thing like this? It's simply, utterly absurd!"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, unanimously expressing their disdain for Yang Zhen.
However, at that moment, a look of hesitation suddenly appeared on Yang Zhen's face, and he asked as if to himself, "You want it? If you want it, then you can have it!"
A chill ran through everyone. "Give... give to whom?"
