In a flower valley, Su Liuyue, dressed in red, sheathed her sword and stood there. She slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then another version of herself emerged from her body.

The two were identical in both aura and appearance, the only difference being that one was dressed in red and the other in white, and one held a sword while the other did not.

"Should I go or you go?" Su Liuyue, dressed in white, asked calmly.

"I'll go." Su Liuyue, dressed in red, looked up at the sky, a faint Sword Intent swirling around her. "After all, it's my business. Although we are one, I still want to handle these matters personally."

"Alright then, I'll wait for your good news." With that, Su Liuyue in white turned and left.

Dressed in red, Su Liuyue lightly swung her sword, a Sword Qi cleaving a rift in the sky before she vanished. At that moment, a streak of light chased after her, and a small white rabbit hopped onto Su Liuyue's shoulder.

In the forest, the other small animals ran out one after another. Looking at the healed wound, a hint of disappointment flashed in their eyes. What a wonderful opportunity to leave! Unfortunately, they missed it.

"Alright, come back, all of you. With your meager strength, you dare to wander around? Aren't you afraid of becoming meat in a pot?" Su Liuyue's voice came from deep within the forest.

The little creatures exchanged glances, then dejectedly went back.

On a small island within the outer Heavenly River Limitless Sect, a sword light shot into the sky, and immediately the world changed color as countless dark clouds gathered in this direction.

"A tribulation lightning strike at the Spirit Severing Realm?" In the sect's main hall, the Heavenly River Venerable, the sect Venerable Heavenly River Heavenly River Limitless Sect, surrounded by a layer of immortal light, glanced at the dark clouds above. "Is it her? If I remember correctly, she's only been in the sect for a little over a year, right?"

Venerable Heavenly River frowned. Breaking through from the Peak Nascent Soul to the Spirit Severing Realm in just over a year... that's too childish, isn't it?

"Very well, everyone has their own destiny. But since you've joined our sect, we'll protect you for a while."

As the words fell, a faint light flew out from the main hall and headed towards the small island.

"It's that person? This shouldn't be happening. How could she have attracted the Spirit Severing Lightning Tribulation so quickly?"

"Yes, she was only at the Peak Nascent Soul when she joined the sect. Even if she had accumulated enough experience, she shouldn't have advanced to the next level in less than a year of seclusion."

"If she successfully Tribulation Transcendence this time, she will likely become inner disciple."

The disciples of the Heavenly River Limitless Sect are ranked according to their cultivation level. Those who enter the sect for the first time are all outer disciples unless they are accepted as True Disciple by Body Integration elder. Only when they reach the Spirit Severing Realm can they become inner disciple.

As for True Disciple, that depends on luck. It depends on whether an elder accepts you before you become inner disciple; otherwise, there is no other way.

"I think her name was Mo Qingyu. The defeat of Senior Brother Li Han Li Han the other two caused quite a stir back then. But now it seems their defeat wasn't unjustified; this person has clearly touched the threshold of the Spirit Severing Realm."

"To become inner disciple within a year of joining the sect is probably a rare occurrence in the entire history of the Heavenly River Limitless Sect."

"So, what do you think will be the expressions on Senior Brother Gu Yuan's and the others' faces when they come back and find out about this guy?" someone said with a wicked grin.

"What kind of expression could he have? At most, a hint of surprise, but I doubt he'd even show surprise. However, a visit is definitely the most likely outcome."

While the disciples were talking, five bolts of lightning had already struck, but they were all shattered by the figure in the air, failing to harm him in the slightest.

"That stance is quite strong," a disciple exclaimed. "It feels about the same as Senior Brother Gu Yuan and the others."

"That's the seventh one. Two more lightning tribulations and it'll be complete."

"Huh, I've never seen this sword move before. It seems pretty powerful."

"The swordplay carries the force of the wind, like a raging storm. Excellent Swordsmanship, but it seems to prioritize Swordsmanship over finesse. It's fine for simple tasks, but it falls short in combat."

"It's probably Swordsmanship she created herself. If she refines it further, it might be able to rival the Autumn Rain Swordsmanship of the Heavenly Sword Sect."

"She was injured, but thankfully, not seriously."

"There's only one last tribulation lightning bolt left. If she can withstand it, she'll become a Spirit Severing Realm expert."

"It's here, the final tribulation lightning has arrived!"

"Azure? This is Yi Wood Azure Lightning! Is she really that talented, to actually unleash Yi Wood Azure Lightning?"

The biggest difference between the Yi Wood Azure Lightning and other tribulation lightning is that it does not cause any harm. It is a pure life-giving tribulation lightning that can help people temper their bodies and strengthen their talents. Almost everyone who Tribulation Transcendence wants to encounter this tribulation lightning.

However, this Yi Wood Azure Lightning does not descend easily; it is very likely that tens of thousands of those Tribulation Transcendence will not encounter even one.

In mid-air, Mo Qingyu made no attempt to slip, letting the lightning strike her. After the lightning disappeared, a flash of Qingguang appeared around her, and a figure dressed in azure robes emerged from her body.

Mo Qingyu Qingyi, dressed in green, cupped her hands in congratulations and said, "Congratulations on successfully Tribulation Transcendence and achieving the Nascent Spirit Severing."

Mo Qingyu nodded, and then the cyan figure merged back into her body.

In the distance, some disciples watching the battle stared in astonishment, their mouths agape. After a long while, once the figure in the air had disappeared, someone murmured in a heartbroken voice, "What a waste! What a waste! She actually used this Yi Wood Azure Lightning of the Wood element as a vessel for her clone! What a waste... If she had refined this lightning herself, her talent would have been even greater."

"Yes, what a pity."

On several small islands in the core area of the Heavenly River Limitless Sect, a few elders glanced at the tribulation clouds slowly dissipating in the sky.

"Chang Kong, that girl is quite formidable. You were the one who recruited her. Did you find out anything about her background?" an elder asked.

"I haven't investigated in detail," the elder named Chang Kong replied. "However, I did divine a secret once; it seems she came from the Ancient Wilderness."

"Her luck seems a bit strange. Even though her own luck isn't particularly good, she has two extremely dense golden lights, which looks very odd."

"It seems your Qi Observation Technique isn't quite up to par yet, Chang Kong," an elder joked.

"She hasn't mastered it yet," Chang Kong frankly admitted. "But that's not important, nor is her background. You must understand, this is our Heavenly River Limitless Sect; no one can cause trouble here."

"Too."

"However, that girl is quite talented. If any of you have the time and inclination, you could try to guide her, which would help her avoid some pitfalls."
