Midnight.

This was a secluded high place that had very few visitors.

A large lake resided within the encirclement of the mountain range.

A layer of clouds that were even darker than the night sky itself had gathered, covering the entire lake.

Various glittering bolts of lightning appeared from the cloud and struck down at the surface of the lake one after another.

From afar, it looked as if beads of pearls hidden among the clouds were falling to the ground, a pretty sight to behold.

But as soon as these pearls struck the surface of the lake, they were sliced apart by an intense sword slash, leaving electrical snakes that slithered across the sky.

The sound of loud thunder resounded over and over.

The intense rain of lightning became thicker bit by bit.

Tribulation Lightning struck towards the lake from every direction like a meteor shower.

The plasma reflected off the surface of the lake, making it look as if the entire world itself was filled by lightning.

At the very center of the lightning strikes—— as well as the center of the lake, stood a single tiny human cultivator.

Each strike of his sword ripped the boundless sea of lightning apart more and more.

This cultivator dual-wielded two swords as he went against the power of heavenly lightning by his own power.

The sound of thunder continued for almost an hour before it slowly went away.

But the world didn’t return to peace.

An intense wind blew across the surface of the lake.

The various screeches and cries signified the gradual arrival of countless unknown creatures to the world.

For a while, the howls and screams of various creatures resounded through the area.

Strange beings from various Fiend realms and Devil realms began to manifest within the wind.

Killing intent filled the air.

Surrounded by evil creatures on all sides, the cultivator facing his Tribulation suddenly put his sword away.

He then clasped his fist, smiled and started talking to the void of space.

If there were any cultivator who saw this, they would definitely have a shocked expression on their faces.

Because following the Lightning Tribulation to break through to Tribulation realm, 18 Seats of Tribulation would be provided for 9 Devil Kings and 9 Fiend Kings to take, to lead their subordinates here and kill the one facing the Tribulation.

This was an adversity that every cultivator would have to face, something that all cultivators were expected to use all they had to survive.

But this person was actually greeting the devils and fiends inside his Wind Tribulation.

Even stranger than that was that it actually worked!

Within the intense howling wind, the screeching and screaming slowly stopped.

Followed by various voices of discussions.

As time passed, these voices became friendly and amiable.

More and more evil creatures showed up.

They gathered and excitedly discussed something within that cultivator’s Wind Tribulation.

As time went on, they were getting along better and better.

The Tianma who took the Seat of Tribulation was already sticking close to the cultivator.

Several Devil Kings were grinning or laughing in joy.

The Fiend Kings were racking their brains thinking of how to get to know this cultivator.

A few evil creatures who didn’t quite understand what was going on went forward and asked about what happened before.

That famous event.

——-the business deal of 2 million souls that cost them nothing.

Every Fiend King and Devil King who participated at the time made a killing.

And the person who orchestrated that business deal was standing right in front of them.

Every evil creature who knew about this wanted to get acquainted with this man with the golden hands.

As for defeating him or killing him——- that was impossible.

Evil creatures aren’t idiots, they already knew full well who he was when they were introducing themselves.

The third member of the Justice Iron Fist Club.

The Huang Quan Devil King of Samsara.

—–this guy is, without a doubt, a merciless character, offending him would cost you more than you would ever could gain from it.

The Devil Kings who participated in this previous Wind Tribulation had already told stories of his exploits.

They heard that he killed an entire hell’s worth of people – at least a quadrillion –  without batting an eye.

And then, during another battle, he released his subordinates to have them devour all of the invading demons.

And so…

It was better to get acquainted to do business with him.

The more friends you have in life the better off you would be.

This was the evil creatures’ thoughts.

And so, the atmosphere during this Heaven’s Tribulation was unnaturally harmonic and friendly.

But time always flies.

And soon enough, the Wind Tribulation was about to reach its end.

Everyone briefly exchanged contact information.

Everyone exchanges promises of meeting up for a drink and talk about official business.

After that, the Devil Kings and Fiend Kings drew their weapons to bid the cultivator farewell.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!

18 consecutive chimes rang out as their weapons struck the cultivator’s sword within the Wind Tribulation.

Everyone said their goodbyes.

The wind slowly stopped.

The Heaven’s Tribulation had ended.

Gu Qing Shan smiled and waved goodbye to each evil creature as they left.

After all of the evil creatures had returned to their worlds, Gu Qing Shan could finally lower his aching hand.

He felt a bit troubled.

Facing the Devil Kings and Fiend Kings of 18 Seats of Tribulation, he had to respond to each and every one of them equally, not only did he had to make sure not to leave anyone out, but he also had to be a bridge to introduce the devils and fiends who were not yet acquainted to each other as well.

And then he had to listen to everyone’s opinion on a future business deal, splitting a bunch of empty promises of future business.

Hah, really—–

How did I reduce Heaven’s Tribulation to this miserable state?

Rather than this, I’d rather fight them like a normal person, at least that way I’ll get a bit of Soul Points out of it, right?

But now that he has established relations with them, seeing the evil creatures who smiled at him in a friendly manner, he couldn’t just slash them with his sword.

That just is not how he is as a person.

And then there was the Tianma——–

Perhaps Li Yang was busy or some other reason, she wasn’t the one to take the Tianma Seat of Tribulation this time around.

The one who arrived was one of her sisters.

This sister of hers had literally tried every trick in the book in an attempt to seduce him.

Gu Qing Shan almost couldn’t restrain himself—–

His hand was already close to grabbing his sword several times as he had to hold himself back from slashing her in two.

It was only after careful consideration that it wasn’t easy to establish relations with the Tianma, and that Li Yang treated him well, as well as the fact that the Progenitor Fiendess wasn’t someone to be trifled with that Gu Qing Shan managed to hold himself back.

Luckily, all that was over now.

Gu Qing Shan deeply sighed as he looked towards the War God UI.

Several lines of glowing text scrolled past one by one.

[This Tribulation is over]

[Thanks to the blessing of the World Origin after its fusion, you have successfully broken through to Tribulation realm]

[You have become a Tribulation realm cultivator]

[Special attention please, breaking through Projection realm, Tribulation realm and Virtualized realm will not bring any opportunities to awaken a new Thaumaturgy. You can only awaken another Thaumaturgy after breaking through Cryptic realm]

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Is this just me, or is everyone the same way?”

[This is a common rule for cultivation realms, every cultivator is the same] the System answered.

“Alright, then remind me at that time”

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and carefully sensed the changes in his cultivation.

As expected of a blessing from the World Origin, his spirit energy was completely calm and settled without any sign of possibly being out of control.

My understanding of Laws has also improved greatly.

As for my total spirit energy——

I’ve increased my spirit energy by another 40%, eclipsing myself from before.

This meant my fighting tactics can be even more varied and I can fight for longer.

From now on, I can consecutively perform powerful sword arrays without stopping.

This is a good thing.

“As expected, becoming stronger is still the best feeling ever”

Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself.

Then, he took out a pill and swallowed it, sitting down cross-legged on the surface of the water.

Although he didn’t use up any stamina in the Wind Tribulation, the Lightning Tribulation he faced was still very real.

Shen Wu world has been merged with the cultivation world, as well as several others.

Shifu had also entered the cultivation alliance with everyone else in this world.

Never mind the changes in geography, a lot of changes must’ve also happened to people of the world in general.

That was why, the closer he got to returning to Bai Hua sect, the less hurried Gu Qing Shan was.

He was making preparations to be as careful and cautious as possible.

Time quickly passed.

After a while, Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.

His body has returned to its peak state.

He stretched his back and slightly stood up on the water.

He was now ready to deal with anything he needed to.
