Even Ye Xuan himself did not expect that after severing his ties, his cultivation would advance so rapidly, directly attracting a heavenly tribulation. If he could overcome this tribulation, he would truly be among the strong in this world.
The gap between a mortal and an immortal is essentially insurmountable. Even if he possessed the spiritual power of an immortal and mastered sword techniques that even immortals couldn’t perfect, he still couldn’t face an immortal head-on.
However, the lightning tribulation in the sky was still too powerful for him at this moment. Without a suitable sword, he might be in danger.
The vortex of clouds in the sky gradually condensed, and the sky above Daogong Peak visibly darkened. At the same time, the power of lightning flickered continuously within the vortex.
“This is bad–!!!” Gong Zhenren exclaimed in alarm.
“The Demonic Origin Sword has been successfully reforged, and it has also attracted a heavenly tribulation. The combined force of the dual tribulations will surely lead to the destruction of the sword and the death of its wielder–!”
Unbeknownst to him, he had already successfully reforged the Demonic Origin Sword. Although the original forging method was crude, the materials used were extremely rare.
Now, reforged by the master swordsmith of Taihua Immortal Sect, it had taken on the appearance of an immortal sword. With an immortal weapon emerging, it was inevitable that a tribulation would follow.
The power of the tribulation for an artifact was no less formidable than that for an immortal. The interaction of the two tribulations would only make the already difficult heavenly tribulation even more challenging.
“Then what are you waiting for? Destroy the sword quickly!” Qingxue, without hesitation, was about to destroy the newly forged sword.
Although the sword was precious, it was clear that Ye Xuan’s life was far more valuable than the reforged Demonic Origin Sword.
“Don’t.” At this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly spoke up. “Since this sword accompanies me in facing the tribulation, it is fated. Let me and this sword face the might of the heavenly tribulation together–!”
With that, Ye Xuan beckoned with his hand. Instantly, the newly forged Demonic Origin Sword emitted a brilliant light, soaring into the sky. The dazzling light illuminated the dark clouds in the sky, making the previously night-like sky as bright as day.
The reforged Demonic Origin Sword flew out of the furnace and landed in Ye Xuan’s hand, shining brightly and unparalleled.
Gong Zhenren, Qin Zhenren, and Qingxue, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but marvel. Truly, a divine sword deserves him as its master. The reforged Demonic Origin Sword was already immensely powerful, and paired with a master like Ye Xuan, it was invincible.
Ye Xuan pointed his sword to the sky and boldly declared, “Come on–!”
Boom–!!!
With a thunderous roar, the lightning in the sky descended like a massive pillar of light towards Ye Xuan. Undoubtedly, the lightning possessed the power to destroy everything.
However, this overwhelming lightning power had no impact on the other beings of Taihua Sect; it was all directed at Ye Xuan. An ordinary person would have to wield their sword to resist such an onslaught.
However, Ye Xuan had great confidence in the power of the Celestial Crimson Sword Technique. He lifted the reforged Demonic Origin Sword, turned his body, chanted the sword incantation, and gathered spiritual energy with his two fingers.
“Sword rise, Celestial Crimson Sword–!”
In an instant, countless stars appeared around Ye Xuan, and his sword energy soared into the sky like a rainbow piercing the sun, clashing with the descending lightning pillar. The heavens and earth trembled.
Qingxue and the others were dumbfounded by this scene. No one could believe that a mere Spiritual Insight cultivator, having attracted a heavenly tribulation, dared to confront it directly.
Could the Celestial Crimson Sword Technique truly possess such power, enabling a mere Spiritual Insight cultivator to wield inexhaustible spiritual energy? Or did Ye Xuan inherently have such terrifying strength, which they only now discovered?
The immortal tribulation was a hurdle all cultivators had to face. Failing to overcome it meant never being a true powerhouse. But if one succeeded, they would become a true immortal, free to roam the vast world.
With one slash of his sword, Ye Xuan had cut through the immortal tribulation lightning, achieving immortality. At this moment, all previous cultivation levels seemed insignificant to Ye Xuan. The sky cleared, the clouds dispersed, and peace returned.
All the disciples of Taihua Immortal Sect understood that at this moment, another immortal had emerged within their ranks. And this immortal was likely very young, perhaps a junior brother named Ye Xuan.
Although they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, many understood that it must have been Ye Xuan. Only he had the talent to break through to the immortal realm in such a short time.
Thinking of this, all the disciples of Taihua Immortal Sect couldn’t help but gasp in shock. Although achieving immortality with a Immortal Spiritual Root was inevitable, Ye Xuan had only reached the Spiritual Insight stage a few days ago. How did he do it–!!!
“Is this what it feels like to become an immortal?” Looking at his hands, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but smile.
The feeling of being an immortal was indeed different from being a mortal. Mortal cultivation relied on spells, spiritual power, and understanding the rules of the heavens and earth.
But an immortal was a world unto themselves. After becoming an immortal, one no longer needed to rely on external forces; spiritual power was self-contained.
At this moment, he felt he could even create a world. With a single thought, spells that used to take a long time could be cast instantly without any hindrance.
“Congratulations–! Ye Xuan, you have joined the ranks of immortals. From now on, you have a place among the world’s strong.”
“Is this the power of the Primordial Spirit Body? Truly extraordinary.”
Although they had worried moments ago about Ye Xuan failing the tribulation, now that he had succeeded, Qingxue, Qin Zhenren, and Gong Zhenren all congratulated him. No matter how dangerous it had been before, it was meaningless now.
Ye Xuan turned to the three immortals before him and smiled, “Thank you, Sect Master, Elder Gong, and Master, for protecting me during the tribulation.”
Hearing Ye Xuan’s gratitude, the three immortals couldn’t help but smile. They had naturally ensured that Ye Xuan wouldn’t fail, but he had succeeded on his own. Ye Xuan’s strength far exceeded their expectations.
“Ye Xuan... has become an immortal...”
On Qingxue Peak, Yu Ling’er and Hu Qianzao looked towards Daogong Peak with excitement. Yet, at the same time, they felt a deep sense of inadequacy.
Though they knew they couldn’t match Ye Xuan, the gap was too vast. They wondered if they should work harder. With their past life’s experience, they faced no obstacles on their path to immortality, and might achieve it in a few years.
However, compared to Ye Xuan’s speed, they were no match. They needed years, but Ye Xuan only took... a few days.
This difference was unimaginable. Even with Ye Xuan’s talent, how could he endure such rapid cultivation progress? Was this the power of the Primordial Spirit Body?!
