Upon hearing this, Mu Qing blurted out, "All things in the world, since they exist in the world, are contained within the world."

The voice was resounding, seemingly carrying the power of the vast Dao.

Mu Qing did not notice that the sun, moon, and stars mark of the protector in his palm shone brightly when he uttered "Since it exists in the world, it should be accepted by the world." This was a sign of the Heavenly Dao's approval.

These words came from Mu Qing, and also from the mouth of Heaven.

"The Great Dao is without emotion, the Great Dao is full of emotion, the Great Dao is supremely emotional..."

After Mu Qing finished speaking, all three of them were stunned, including Mu Qing herself.

He didn't know why he said such a thing, but it seemed to be his deepest, most genuine understanding.

Ao Bupa did not notice Mu Qing's abnormality. The moment Mu Qing finished speaking, he fell into a mysterious state of mind.

The inferiority complex that had plagued him for years, along with the constraints of his half-demon body, vanished.

His aura fluctuated, and the spiritual energy in the air surged into his body.

Thunderclouds gathered in the sky, unlike when Murong Yu underwent his tribulation.

Ao's fearless lightning tribulation was much less intense.

Only a thin layer of thunderclouds gathered in a short time.

Mu Qing and Murong Yu flew away from where Ao Bupa was standing.

A tiny bolt of lightning struck down from within the thunderclouds.

A few breaths later, the second one fell.

A little while later, the last bolt of lightning struck.

Only three bolts of tribulation lightning descended in total.

It is the lowest level of the Tribulation Lightning during the Golden Core stage.

After surviving the tribulation, white light descended from the clouds, and Ao Bupa's cultivation level broke through from the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage to the early stage of the Golden Core stage.

Ao was overjoyed and danced with excitement.

Although it was only the lowest level of the Three-One Tribulation in the Golden Core stage.

However, for him, breaking through to the Golden Core stage was already an unexpected joy.

He was already very content.

After all, his cultivation level had been stuck at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage for nearly a hundred years.

He originally thought that he would never be able to break through to the Golden Core stage in this lifetime.

What Ao Bupa didn't know was that his cultivation level had been stuck at the Foundation Establishment stage, not because his cultivation talent was too low.

It's not because their mindset can't keep up.

Therefore, he was unable to break through in his cultivation level.

Ao Bupa circulated his spiritual energy and looked inward. He saw the golden core floating above his dantian and wept with joy.

She raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, bowed respectfully to Murong Yu and the other man, and solemnly said, "Thank you."

Murong Yu and Mu Qing were both happy for Ao Bupa, seeing that he had successfully survived the tribulation, broken through his cultivation level, and improved his mental state.

Previously, Ao Bupa's humble, guarded, and timid demeanor always reminded Mu Qing of the cowardly old man she encountered on the desolate continent.

Now, looking at Ao Bupa again, his aura is much more cheerful, with a confident smile on his face and a firm and bright look in his eyes.

Only then did he regain some of the vigor of a young person.

Unlike before, he was only two or three hundred years old, yet he gave people a sense of having experienced many vicissitudes.

Mu Qing and Murong Yu said in unison, "Congratulations."

Ao Bupa expressed his gratitude again, saying, "Thank you very much."

Murong Yu said, "Since Aunt Liu has been missing for two or three years, the most urgent thing now is to find her whereabouts."

"Didn't they say there are still two or three months before the secret realm opens? Let's try to find the person within that time."

Mu Qing released the Golden Spot Bee Queen, Dian Dian, and a group of Golden Spot Bees from the dimensional space.

He asked Ao Bupa, "Do you have any of Aunt Liu's things, or any items that still retain Aunt Liu's scent?"

Ao Bupa lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, he took out an exquisite purse from his spatial bag and handed it to Mu Qing, saying, "This purse was hand-embroidered by Aunt Liu. She embroidered one for everyone in our half-demon sect. Do you think this is alright?"

Mu Qing took the purse and pointed it at the little golden butterfly and the golden-spotted big-headed bee queen flying in mid-air, saying, "Little Golden, Dot, come and smell it."

"Can you smell the purse here? We need to find the previous owner of this purse."

The little golden butterfly seemed to understand Mu Qing's words. Upon hearing this, it flew to the golden pouch in Mu Qing's hand, which was also embroidered with a golden butterfly. The little golden butterfly excitedly shook its little antennae.

It noted the scent on the pouch, then flapped its wings and flew away.

Dot and the Golden-headed Bees also flew onto the pouch, sensing its aura.

Mu Qing also used his spiritual power to examine the pouch and found two kinds of auras remaining on it.

One type is the fearless.

The other one, with a faint, very subtle herbal scent, must be Aunt Liu's.

After noting down the scent on the pouch, Dot and the Golden-Headed Bees flew into the air one after another.

The little golden butterfly and Dot were communicating with each other in mid-air. The little golden butterfly flapped its wings, and Dot responded with "buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz buzz". The two little ones seemed to be discussing something.

Seeing that the two little ones had finished discussing, Mu Qing asked, "Dian Dian, Xiao Jin, can you find its previous owner through the scent on the pouch?"
