When the last nine tribulation lightning bolts struck, Xie Aotian transformed into a giant python hundreds of meters long that devoured the sky in everyone's eyes.

He swallowed the last nine tribulation lightning bolts directly into his stomach, leaving the cultivators watching from afar utterly astonished.

Yuwen Heyue: "Cousin, your second brother really does have demon blood."

Xie Xinyao rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Didn't you see it?"

Yuwen Heyue: "I never expected that the rumor that the Xie family head was the child of the old Xie family head and a demon woman in the secret realm was actually true."

"What is that? It looks like a giant python. It actually swallowed the lightning tribulation. How domineering!"

Xie Xinyao: "......"

Yuwen Qingkong patted Yuwen Heyue on the shoulder, "Concentrate and try to understand it."

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Heyue composed himself and calmed down to contemplate the matter.

Yuwen Qingkong nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this.

After the seventy-two tribulations of lightning were overcome, the gathered thunderclouds instantly dissipated, replaced by golden auspicious clouds that gathered above the snowfield, with red rays of light pouring down from them.

Above the Northern Plains Continent, the golden ascension passage reappeared. Xie Aotian, enveloped in rosy light, entered the ascension passage under the guidance of the Heavenly Dao.

A spatial ring suddenly appeared in Xie Xinyao's hand without anyone noticing.

This was followed by Xie Aotian's telepathic message, "For your brother's sake, I'll give you this ring."

Xie Xinyao checked it and was stunned by the mountain of cultivation resources piled up in the spatial ring.

Deep in her memory, Xie Lanzhi's elegant figure reappeared, and her eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.

Yuwen Heyue noticed her unusual behavior and asked, "Cousin, what's wrong?"

Xie Xinyao shook her head. "It's nothing."

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Yuwen Heyue did not ask any further questions.

Immortal Realm

As soon as Mo Jingxin stepped down from the Ascension Platform, the platform was once again enveloped in dazzling white light.

The immortals guarding the Flying Immortal Platform were all shocked.

Wang Fei exclaimed in shock, "Has some kind of miracle happened in the cultivation world? No one has ascended to heaven for tens of thousands of years. How come three of them have suddenly ascended?"

"And they all have Heavenly-level aptitude, it's unbelievable."

Upon hearing this, all the immortals nodded in agreement.

Zhu Qing warmly pulled Mo Jingxin, who had just come down from the Flying Immortal Platform and already possessed the cultivation of an early True Immortal, aside and asked:

"Fellow immortal, where are you from? Was the cultivator who ascended before you a cultivator from your region?"

"Has something extraordinary happened in the cultivation world? How come three cultivators have ascended to immortality in succession...?"

The immortals crowded around Mo Jingxin, asking her all sorts of questions.

Canglan Continent

On the back mountain of the Western Wilderness Continent, Ji Xiuyuan and a group of junior disciples of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect watched with curiosity the ascension phenomenon of the Northern Plains Continent.

A junior disciple tugged at Ji Xiuyuan's robes and asked earnestly, "Master Xiuyuan, are the strange phenomena in the sky due to a cultivator undergoing tribulation and ascending to immortality?"

Ji Xiuyuan nodded: "Yes."

"This is the third cultivator to ascend in the past few days."

The young disciple asked, "When will our Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect have a cultivator who attains Nirvana and becomes a Buddha?"

Ji Xiuyuan was taken aback, then said, "Perhaps many years later, or perhaps today, when the time comes, there will naturally be Buddhist cultivators who will attain Nirvana and become Buddhas."

"Do not compare yourself to others; everything is ordained by Heaven. Amitabha."

The young disciple said, "Thank you for your guidance, Master Xiuyuan. I understand."

Xiao Mi: "Oh, Master Xiuyuan is the disciple of Wuwang Buddha."

"Did he also come to see the vision?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Xiuyuan was overjoyed. He turned around and saw Wuwang lying on the open space behind the mountain.
