Xiao Feng's heart was churning with emotions. He felt the spiritual power within his body rising at an incredible speed, as if it were about to break through a bottleneck and reach a higher realm.

"Finally, I'm about to break through!" Xiao Feng was filled with excitement. He deeply felt that long-lost excitement, as if he could touch the source of power.

Just then, thunder suddenly roared, the deafening sound like war drums, striking the hearts of everyone.

"This kid is about to undergo tribulation!" The first to react was Wu Hai, his face showing a fanatical expression, his eyes shining as if he saw endless possibilities.

"I must witness this moment with my own eyes!"

The people around looked at each other, their expressions varied.

Some were surprised, some were skeptical, and most sighed helplessly.

It's incredible that Xiao Feng, at such a young age, could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm at this time. Could it be that an immortal is about to emerge from the Upper Realm?

"My God, how could he reach the Nascent Soul Realm so quickly!" A young disciple covered his mouth, his face full of disbelief. "This is simply a miracle! Does he have some secret?"

"I don't think he has any chance of succeeding. Tribulation is not something that simple!" another elder said coldly.

"Shut up! Don't discourage him!"

Wu Hai roared, so excited he almost jumped up.

He turned around and gazed intently at the sky.

"Everyone, gather around and go watch Xiao Feng undergo his tribulation!"

Su Mu's voice was like thunder. He looked at the disciples around him with a gloomy face and an unyielding command in his tone.

"This is a rare opportunity; no one can afford to miss it!"

Everyone responded immediately and rushed towards Wu Hai's residence.

A tense atmosphere filled the air, as if even heaven and earth were holding their breath for this moment.

As they moved, the thunderclouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, the dark clouds seeming to oppress everyone's hearts, exuding an ominous premonition.

"This is no ordinary calamity, but divine punishment!" someone whispered, their face pale.

Everyone looked up and saw dark clouds rolling and lightning flashing wildly within them, as if foreshadowing the terror that was about to descend.

"Look! What's that?" a disciple exclaimed, pointing to the sky.

Following his finger, everyone looked and saw dazzling light flashing in the thunderclouds, as if a giant dragon was churning in the sky, inspiring a sense of fear in everyone.

"Heaven is jealous of talent!"

Wu Hai finally couldn't help but shout out, his voice filled with helplessness and anger, as if questioning the injustice that fate had done to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng's figure was enveloped in dazzling light, and his spiritual power continued to rise, surging like a tidal wave.

Su Xueqing watched this scene with a heart full of trepidation.

Her hands were clenched tightly together, her knuckles turned white, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Am I really going to lose him?" she cried out in her heart, but she was powerless to do anything about it.

The feeling of helplessness almost suffocated her; she could only watch helplessly as the wheels of fate rolled over the person she loved.

Su Mu stood to the side, his brows furrowed.

He sighed and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid God won't allow a monster like Xiao Feng to exist."

In the basement, Xiao Feng took a deep breath, his gaze resolute.

He didn't want the Ming Cult to be destroyed by lightning, so he decided to go to the outer perimeter of the Ming Cult to undergo his tribulation.

"I have to go out," Xiao Feng said in a deep voice. "I can't let the Ming Cult suffer because of me."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Ming Cult all showed expressions of gratitude.

Someone sighed softly, "Senior Brother Xiao is really willing to risk his life for Junior Sister Su."

Upon hearing this, Su Xueqing shook her head with a wry smile.

She secretly scoffed to herself, "He wasn't doing this for me at all; it must be for that vixen Zhao Yuwei."

Thinking of Zhao Yuwei's stunningly beautiful face, Su Xueqing couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.

She secretly compared her appearance and temperament with Zhao Yuwei's, and the more she thought about it, the more inferior she felt.

"Zhao Yuwei is so beautiful and so smart, how could Xiao Feng possibly risk his life for me?" Su Xueqing thought bitterly, tears welling up in her eyes.

Everyone watched Xiao Feng leave.

Some people shook their heads and sighed, "I'm afraid they won't even be able to withstand the first lightning tribulation."

However, to everyone's surprise, Xiao Feng not only withstood the first lightning tribulation, but also survived several more lightning tribulations in succession.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, and a fierce wind howled. Xiao Feng's figure appeared and disappeared in the lightning.

His clothes were torn to shreds, but his figure remained upright like a pine tree.

With each lightning strike, Xiao Feng withstood it with astonishing willpower.

His body, tempered by lightning, emitted a faint golden light.

Everyone stared in disbelief, speechless with shock.

"This...how is this possible?" Wu Hai stammered, "The Ascension Tribulation is like this?"

When the last lightning tribulation passed, Xiao Feng remained standing in the same spot, as if nothing had happened.

He turned to face the crowd, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Just then, Xiao Feng suddenly felt something strange inside his body.

His expression changed as he realized the poison had entered his body.

"Damn it!" he cursed inwardly. "Get out here!"

Xiao Feng desperately wanted the poison to leave his body, but the strange power seemed to be integrated with him and could not be separated.

Just as he was getting anxious, he suddenly felt a strange connection being established within his body.

The force no longer rejected him; instead, it became unusually compliant, as if it had become a part of his body.

To Xiao Feng's surprise, the poisonous Gu had become his external avatar!

He closed his eyes, concentrated, and felt the connection between himself and the poisonous insect.

It was as if countless tiny threads were tightly connected to them, and the slightest fluctuation in his mind would cause the poison to react accordingly.

This wondrous feeling thrilled Xiao Feng; he had finally gained control of this powerful being.

Just then, a petite figure suddenly lunged at Xiao Feng. It was Su Xueqing!

Her eyes were filled with tears.

She hugged Xiao Feng tightly, her voice choked with emotion: "I'm so glad you're alright! I... I thought I'd never see you again."

Xiao Feng was somewhat taken aback by this sudden enthusiasm.

He felt Su Xueqing's soft body pressed against him, and for a moment he didn't know how to react. His face flushed slightly, and he stammered, "Um... Xueqing, I... I'm fine, you can get up now."

Other members of the Demonic Sect also rushed over. Upon seeing this scene, some chuckled to themselves, while others looked on with envy.

Wu Hai stepped forward and asked with concern, "Brother Xiao, how are you feeling now?"

Xiao Feng coughed lightly, trying to cover up his embarrassment, and replied, "I'm fine. Actually, I've never been afraid of tribulations." He said this in a seemingly relaxed manner, but a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.

Su Mu frowned and asked, "What about the most poisonous creature in the world? Is it already dead?"

Xiao Feng's lips curled slightly upward as he said, "Watch closely."
