"Is that a demon beast?"
"Isn't this the Fourth Rank Transformation Heavenly Tribulation?"
Despite the spatial separation provided by the Third Rank Formation of Split Wind Island, they could still sense the terrifying might of the tribulation brewing in the distance, a power potent enough to make their hearts tremble.
And such a dreadful tribulation cloud was actually summoned by a macaque beast that appeared incredibly adorable.
What has happened to this world?
They had diligently cultivated for hundreds of years, yet why did they feel as though they could no longer comprehend this world?
The expressions of the five cultivators were dazed, as if they were caught in a dream.
The Three Treasures Incarnation noticed their incredulous shock and calmly stated, "You should first steady your condition."
"Yes, Senior."
The five individuals, upon hearing this instruction, awakened from their dreamlike state. They realized they were not dreaming, as the presence before them was indeed extraordinary. Quickly retrieving elixir medicines from their storage rings, they commenced cultivation to heal....
The Heavenly Tribulation for the Soul-calling Beast arrived with remarkable speed, completing its brewing process in a mere three days, significantly faster than the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale's tribulation before.
The tribulation descended, engulfing the palm-sized Soul-calling Beast.
In its usual state, the Soul-calling Beast appeared like a cute little creature, devoid of any potent demon king aura.
But now, submerged by streaks of lightning resembling silver serpents and furious pythons, one would instinctively believe it would be reduced to ashes.
However, an astonishing spectacle unfolded: the Soul-calling Beast lay calmly within the tribulation, as if it were merely bathing, showing no signs of discomfort.
Not only Qian Zhuyan, but also the five assisting Nascent Soul cultivators, and even Lu Changsheng, observing through the Three Treasures Incarnation, were taken aback by this sight.
What manner of tribulation crossing was this?
The second wave of tribulation descended, and still, the Soul-calling Beast faced no apparent pressure.
The third, fourth, and fifth tribulations followed...
What was considered an extremely perilous ordeal by many seemed utterly trivial to the Soul-calling Beast.
It wasn't until the sixth tribulation descended that the Soul-calling Beast, mimicking a macaque, became enveloped in black mist. Its body elongated, entering a battle form and transforming into the Punishment Beast.
Yet, even during this transformation, it allowed the tribulation to strike freely, bearing no burden.
Lu Changsheng’s true self, utilizing his Fire Golden Eye, analyzed the unfolding situation.
The Soul-calling Beast appeared to be fully harnessing the tribulation's baptism to refine itself.
Furthermore, its heavenly tribulation seemed markedly less daunting compared to the trial faced by the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale previously.
"Is this a consequence of karmic fortune or some other factor?"
Lu Changsheng pondered internally, uncertain about the current status of his spiritual pet.
Both he and Yun Wanshang had received celestial fortune, and the Soul-calling Beast, having been a key contributor to the Sealing Demon Land mission, naturally reaped karmic benefits.
Indeed, the Sealing Demon Array Spirit had once mentioned that sealing demons was the Punishment Beast’s inherent mission, greatly benefiting it.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
At this precise moment, the Sun and Moon Two Forms Mysterious Light Mirror concealed within Lu Changsheng’s bosom alerted him to the imminent approach of a Fourth Rank Demon King.
Following his confrontation with the Split Wind Beast and now the Soul-calling Beast’s tribulation, such significant disturbances would undoubtedly draw the attention of nearby demon kings.
Faced with this developing situation, Lu Changsheng immediately ceased his formation. He instructed the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng to stand guard over Yun Wanshang while he proceeded to investigate the approaching presence.
Moments later, a Fourth Rank Demon King, characterized by its green scales, sharp teeth, swollen eyelids, and bone spikes beneath its gills, approached Split Wind Island.
"Where do you come from, occupying Feng Lie’s territory and crossing tribulation here?"
As it drew nearer, its gaze bypassed the tribulating Soul-calling Beast, focusing instead on the corpse of the Split Wind Beast lying on the island. Attracted by the commotion of the Soul-calling Beast, the creature found the remains of a Fourth Rank Demon King like the Split Wind Beast to be far more compelling.
"Blessed Land Cave Heaven, for the virtuous to dwell. Now this island belongs to this king."
Following Lu Changsheng’s silent directive, Qian Zhuyan’s gaze settled upon the Fourth Rank Demon King. Speaking in a cold, raspy voice, the Puppet Power of a Fourth Rank cultivator surged forth. Among the human race and demon beasts, a natural animosity existed, particularly between cultivators of the Starry Sky Sea and formidable demon kings. Consequently, utilizing a Fourth Rank Puppet like Qian Zhuyan to voice their claims often proved more advantageous.
At this juncture, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but recall the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.
If she were present, this tribulation crossing would undoubtedly be conducted with far greater safety and security.
"Did you kill Feng Lie?"
The Demon King of the Fourth Rank fixed his gaze upon Qian Zhuyan, his voice a sharp rasp as he detected the potent Fourth Rank Puppet Power emanating from her controlled form.
However, he and the Split Wind Beast were ancient rivals, intimately familiar with each other’s capabilities.
The current might displayed by Qian Zhuyan was insufficient to truly contend with the Split Wind Beast.
"Are you here for retribution?"
Qian Zhuyan managed to conceal the unease within her, maintaining an imposing and dignified aura as she spoke, her voice a low rasp.
"My king and Feng Lie were close companions. You slayed it, claimed its island, and even dared to undergo tribulation here. Naturally, I require an explanation."
This Fourth Rank Demon King had achieved its current rank over a century ago, possessing considerable spiritual intellect. Having witnessed the demise of the Split Wind Beast, it refrained from acting rashly, instead focusing on seizing potential gains.
"Little Yan, sever one of the Split Wind Beast’s claws and present it to him…"
Lu Changsheng, observing the unfolding events from the shadows, perceived the Fourth Rank Demon King’s covetous gaze upon the Split Wind Beast. He transmitted these instructions to Qian Zhuyan.
Under different circumstances, he would not have hesitated to confront the demon directly.
However, with the Soul-calling Beast currently undergoing its tribulation and Yun Wanshang on the cusp of reaching the Nascent Soul stage, he was keen to avert any unnecessary disturbances.
Qian Zhuyan paused, her expression unreadable. Then, like a precision-engineered war machine, her body vibrated, and with a swift movement, she severed a claw from the colossal carcass of the Split Wind Beast, flinging it forward. "This claw is yours. Should you, my demon brother, wish to witness the ceremony and assist in warding off any interlopers, I shall additionally bestow upon you the beast’s essence blood thereafter."
"My king and Feng Lie were the dearest of friends!"
Upon receiving only a single claw, the Fourth Rank Demon King immediately voiced its discontent, unleashing its formidable Fourth Rank Demon King qi aura.
Undaunted, Qian Zhuyan stood her ground, joined by eleven of her puppets. Their qi mechanisms resonated in unison, initiating the intricate process of drafting and solidifying a formidable Puppet Formation Battle Map. Her voice, still raspy, declared, "More will be yours once the ceremony concludes."
