CHAPTER 66: VOID TRIBULATION

Mo Yan nodded, "I will, don’t worry, junior brother." After saying that, she looked at him for a few breaths before heading toward her chamber.

Lin Feng sighed and went inside his own chamber. He was sure that she could easily pass the Void Tribulation. Even her physique would help her in crossing it, so he really wasn’t worried much... but there was still some chance of her getting lost in it, so he didn’t want her to do it in haste.

The Void Tribulation was a unique realm. As its name suggested, Cultivators went through a void tribulation.

Their soul was trapped in a vast space where nothing existed, only void as far as one could see. Cultivators had to cross this void if they wanted to break through.

They floated for months or years in this illusion, even though only one day passed outside, and if they gave up and stopped moving, then they would be lost forever. You needed to have an unbreakable will to not give in to your solitude to pass this stage.

His senior sister, who had a physique related to the void, was the last person he should be worried about.

...

In the vast Azure Bloom forest Xuan Xue looked at seven peak-stage Sacred Beast Ascension realm spirit beasts. She was a little stumped herself.

She had thought that she would only be able to capture three or four beasts, but it looked like she was thoroughly mistaken.

This Frostscale Boa was really shameless, not only did it bring her to their territories, but it also told her their weaknesses without her even asking anything. It was even more eager than her to let them be captured.

It even encouraged the beasts to give up and join him for some fun, like how boring the forest had become.

The first territory it brought her to was none other than its friend, the Bloodfur Bear, truly amusing. None of these beasts were ordinary: Stormhoof Bull, Windstride Lion, Starflame Skylark, Glacialfang Tiger, Thunderclap Eagle.

She didn’t know what treasure these two sects got their hands on that made them confident enough to attack them, but even if all of their ancestors came back and attacked together, it wouldn’t change a thing and it wasn’t because of these beasts, alas that step isn’t something they are willing to choose unless they are forced to do so.

"You guys can stay here, when I need you, I will call for you. Never leave the territory, or I will think of it as you breaking your oath," Xuan Xue spoke and disappeared.

All the beasts sighed in relief, they thought they might have to live somewhere desolate until the war ended. Getting to live in their territory was far better.

"Who would have thought a human would be able to make all of us submit," the Frostscale Boa sighed and suddenly dodged to the side as a bear claw tore through its original location.

"You traitor, I know that you got captured first and brought her to me..." The Bloodfur Bear was really angry.

"Calm down, would you? You did the same and were quite eager to bring her to that Flaming Fowl," the Frostscale Boa dodged another attack and spoke, the bear stopped.

"What, so it was him who gave her the location of my territory, and who the hell are you calling a Flaming Fowl, you slimy vine?" The Starflame Skylark’s flaming body began to burn as it got angry.

...

Xuan Xue arrived at the location they had decided to meet, the others were already there. Unlike peak-stage Sacred Beasts, they had decided to send other beasts to the border of the Northern and Eastern regions.

Anyone who entered from the Eastern region without going through Lotus Bloom City would be considered an enemy, and these beasts were allowed to kill them.

"How many?" Xuan Lian asked, the others were eager to know too.

"Seven," Xuan Xue spoke and saw that the others looked at her with unbelievable expressions, "Don’t give me that look, I wasn’t able to believe it either."

The others shook their heads, "What the hell did you do? Make the first beast help you in capturing others?"

Xuan Xue landed in front of them, "Well, I didn’t, it did that on its own will... let’s leave it."

The others nodded, and Xuan Lian took out two special storage bags, specially made for holding spirit beasts. They all had one filled to the brim with beasts.

They were going to release them in different locations around the border, so they had to go alone. Xuan Lian handed one to Xuan Xue, and they all were ready to depart.

Suddenly, Xuan Xue felt almost everyone’s gaze on her, she got a little confused, "What?"

Xuan Lian just sidelined her, as she knew why they were all looking at her, Hua Ying had just told everyone everything.

"Xue’er... how did you give in so easily?" Zi Mei was the first to speak, she knew that Xue’er wasn’t someone who could easily give in to her desires, even with her physique.

Xuan Xue became even more confused, "What am I missing here?"

Hua Ying smiled, "Maybe you’re missing your disciple."

Xuan Xue’s eyes widened a little as she understood what they were talking about, "Whatever, I’m going to the far left side of the border." Just as she finished speaking, she disappeared.

"Dammit, I knew she would run away," Lan Yue sighed, she was eager to know about Xue’er experience too.

"Well, where can she go... In the end, she will return to the sect," Qing Shu shrugged her shoulders, "I’m going to the Mulin City area." She disappeared too.

The others nodded and one by one they left too, it might take them a few days to complete this as they would spread them in groups along the whole border.

Beasts might be stronger, but they became vulnerable to humans as they were hunted in groups, so if this vulnerability was removed, then ordinary humans could never win against even ordinary beasts.

...

In the Frozen heart sect.

A couple of days later, Lin Feng finally filled his meridians to the brim with yang qi. It was time for him to break through and reach the Foundation Establishment realm.

He started rotating the qi in his meridians slowly at first to let them adjust while getting refined by it, slowly he increased the speed and felt a tingling sensation in all his meridians, they were getting stretched due to the spirit qi flowing through them like a raging river.
