On the other side, Rong Zi sat cross-legged on a mountaintop, frowning as he felt the immense, surging energy within his body. He slowly looked up at the eye of the thunderstorm above him.
In this ascension, in addition to Rong Zi and his seven disciples, Cai Niu also met the requirements for ascension.
Therefore, there are now nine thunderstorm eyes in the sky.
However, among these nine thunderbolt eyes, the one above Rong Zi's head is the most powerful, containing several times more energy of heaven and earth than the other eight thunderbolt eyes.
Cai Niu was on the mountain closest to Rong Zi.
It shrank its entire head inside its shell, howling in terror at the strange phenomenon above.
"Master, this heavenly lightning is already so terrifying before it even strikes. What if my tortoise shell can't hold up when it actually hits?"
Qi Yufei said speechlessly, "Be content. At least you have a tortoise shell to protect yourself. None of us have anything."
"If only we could use a defensive magical artifact," Gu Xiaochui added with a mournful face.
When a cultivator undergoes tribulation and ascends to immortality, they cannot rely on external forces; they can only rely on their own cultivation and physical body to resist the attack.
Those who can withstand it will attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven.
If you can't withstand it, you will die and your spirit will perish.
Ning Lingling glanced at the Thunderstorm Eye above her head, which was still accumulating energy from heaven and earth, and echoed her sentiment.
"Yeah, this lightning looks really scary. It would hurt so much if it struck you."
Listening to their loud chatter, Rong Zi instructed, "Don't get distracted. Hold your breath and concentrate. Remember, when the heavenly lightning comes down, you must do your best to withstand it. If you relax, you might lose your life here."
Their talents were so extraordinary that the tribulations they had to endure were naturally extraordinary as well.
We must not be careless.
Upon hearing Rong Zi's words, the disciples all focused their attention, keeping a close eye on the changes in the heavenly lightning.
Others began to arrive one after another outside Rongling Sect.
Someone exclaimed, "What's going on?"
"Can't you tell? Rong Zi and her disciples are all about to ascend to immortality."
"Holy crap, ascending to immortality at the same time?!"
"This is unbelievable! How old are they? They're already ascending so soon! Throughout history, only a handful of cultivators have ascended before the age of a thousand. Are the people of Rongling Sect going to defy the heavens?"
"Who can argue with that? For years, Rongling Sect has kept its doors closed to all visitors, refusing to see anyone. Nobody knows how they cultivate..."
Qin Ziteng stood in the crowd, watching the oppressive lightning tribulation, and silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He had a lot of conflicts with Rong Zi back then.
Looking at the scene before him now, he truly realized that he had been far too presumptuous before.
Compared to the people from Rongling Sect, he was clearly not on the same level.
Zhu Haohao also rushed over with his master Shui Qingyue and the other senior sisters.
Gazing at Rong Zi, who was shrouded in the eye of the thunderstorm, from afar, he pursed his lips and lowered his eyelashes with a complicated expression.
Rong Zi transcended her tribulation and ascended to immortality. He felt both happy for her and a little lonely.
Over the years, he has been cultivating diligently and believes that his cultivation level has increased rapidly.
However, compared to Rong Zi and her disciples, he was still far, far behind.
The distance made him feel that even if he spent his entire life trying, he would never be able to catch up with them.
Zhu Haohao looked up at the sky.
Maybe……
Some people are destined to be out of reach.
Looking at the nine raging lightning bolts, Shui Qingyue exclaimed in surprise, "The power of this lightning tribulation..."
Having lived to a ripe old age, she had naturally witnessed the lightning tribulations that cultivators endured when they ascended to immortality.
However, Shui Qingyue had never seen such a powerful and terrifying lightning tribulation before.
Those nine lightning bolts in the sky, any one of them could probably kill her in a matter of minutes.
Wang Qiwen, who was standing to the side, said, "Rong Zi and her disciples are too talented, so the power of this lightning tribulation is naturally stronger than that of an ordinary lightning tribulation."
Lu Zhongyi had just arrived and counted the thunderstorm eyes in the sky. He asked a question with some curiosity.
"Speaking of which, how come there are nine? Rong Zi and her seven disciples only have eight, right?"
Song Fengming added in a low voice, "It seems that... Rong Zi's contracted beast has also met the requirements for ascension."
Lü Zhongyi: "..."
It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy.
These old guys have cultivated for a lifetime, living for over a thousand years, and they still don't know when they will be able to successfully transcend tribulations and ascend to immortality. But how many years have Rong Zi and her disciples cultivated?
What's even more disheartening is that Rong Zi's contracted beast is also about to ascend!
Does this mean no one else is allowed to live?
What Lü Zhongyi didn't know was that Rong Zi had a time egg.
Thanks to Rong Zi's numerous improvements, the time inside the Time Egg is now at least thirty-six times different from the time outside.
In other words, one year of cultivation inside the Time Egg is equivalent to thirty-six years of cultivation outside.
The cultivation method for Time Eggs is too extraordinary to be mass-produced on a large scale.
Of course, it cannot be given to other people to use indiscriminately, otherwise it will disrupt the balance of the entire cultivation world.
Just like the reincarnation technique that Rong Xuan and Jun Moyao used to revive Rong Zi, if it really disrupts the balance of the Heavenly Dao, then the Heavenly Dao will definitely intervene.
Therefore, Rong Zi did not mention the Time Egg to anyone other than Rong Lingzong.
Yun Jing's lightning was the first to strike.
