Chapter 1348: Chapter 1347: Immortal Ascension Tribulation

The news of Lu Yang’s imminent ascension to immortality during the Seek Dao Sect’s Immortal Ascension Tribulation spread rapidly across the universe.

Unlike the last time Wu Yao passed his tribulation, when the Cultivation World’s spiritual energy technology was just starting, the speed of information transmission was very limited.

With the rapid development of spiritual energy technology over the years, communication technology has reached an extremely terrifying level, with no delay even in light-year communications.

The live broadcast of Lu Yang crossing the Immortal Ascension Tribulation quickly climbed to the number one spot in popularity, followed by several other broadcasts showing different angles of the Immortal Ascension Tribulation.

“We don’t even need to do anything.” The Thief Ancestor remarked, as a major shareholder in the universal broadcasting, manipulating the popularity of a stream was an easy task.

As it turned out, he was worried for nothing. An Immortal Ascension Tribulation, a rarity since ancient times, easily claimed the top spot without any manipulation needed.

The Thief Ancestor watched enviously; he had been stuck in the Half-Immortal Realm for eighty-thousand years without even touching the threshold of immortality, while this up-and-comer was about to ascend.

“What is this live room, and why is it so lively?” people from the Interstellar Alliance entered the broadcast, shocked by the unprecedented popularity and barrage of comments.

“Can’t you read the title? Someone in the Cultivation World is becoming an Immortal!!!” others from the Interstellar Alliance excitedly replied with barrage comments.

“Becoming immortal? Is that the so-called physical limit talked about in the Cultivation World?”

“Bullshit physical limit, do you even understand cultivation? This is a completely different level of life.”

“Just another one brainwashed by marketing accounts.”

The Salvation Team from Sky Sea Star, saved by Lu Yang, came forward one after another, stating how powerful and the pinnacle of life evolution Lu Yang was.

The team leader Zhan Po said nothing, simply rewarding silently in deep silence.

In addition to the Salvation Team, there were others with strange names like “Prisoner Peak True Inheritance,” “Thankful for Prisoner Peak’s Nurturing,” “Immortal Fourth,” and “Ancient Barbarian Tribe,” explaining to onlookers just how powerful Lu Yang was.

“Fun fact: When Heavenly Emperor Wu Yao underwent his Immortal Ascension Tribulation, he shattered an entire star system.”

“This Immortal Ascension Tribulation is not so powerful; it didn’t even damage the surrounding mountains because the Heavenly Tribulation was all concentrated on Lu Yang.”

“Why is the quality so blurry? I can’t see clearly.”

“Naive child, stop your nonsense. What blurry quality? The Immortal Ascension Tribulation has distorted space, and it would look the same even if you were on the scene.” A Cultivator stepped forward to explain, a main profile view, a Great Cultivator in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

“Is it really that amazing?” Even with the reality in front of them, some remained skeptical, thinking it was just a few lightning strikes; their mechanically augmented bodies could withstand it as well.

“You can try the holographic broadcast room.” Someone sneered. Doubtful, huh? Then have a taste of the hardship.

“Holographic broadcast room?” That person quickly found the holographic broadcast room. Strangely enough, despite all being broadcasts of the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, this one had very low popularity.

He connected to the port, as if he had truly arrived at the Seek Dao Sect, facing the rolling thunder of the heavens up close.

Only then did he realize the horror of the Immortal Ascension Tribulation; entirely different from the lightning and thunder seen in nature, it was a tribulation beyond natural phenomena, capable of annihilating everything. Any being facing the Immortal Ascension Tribulation has only one outcome: to turn into ashes in the tribulation.

Just as he was about to speak, he bled from all seven orifices and was ejected from the holographic state.

“The danger alert has been activated!” The person was incredibly shocked; this was the holographic system’s safety mechanism, designed to check the user’s health and eject them before any mishap.

The holographic system could only mimic less than one ten-thousandth of the Immortal Ascension Tribulation’s power, which meant facing even that trivial amount was unbearable and a risk to his life.

Having only witnessed the Immortal Ascension Tribulation for a split second, he was profoundly shaken and finally understood why the holographic broadcast room was so unpopular.

Ordinary people didn’t even qualify to watch.

“Lu Yang is awesome!” That person immediately sent a barrage message and became a fan of Lu Yang.

This is an immortal who can withstand the Immortal Ascension Tribulation without flinching; there’s no shame in acknowledging this.

In the eyes of people from other civilizations, Lu Yang is no different from the celestial beings of their legends and myths.

“May Lu Yang, the Great Immortal, bless my exams to go smoothly.”

“May Lu Yang, the Great Immortal, bless me with good health.”

“May Lu Yang, the Great Immortal, bless me in finding a good wife.”

Suddenly, the live stream’s barrage turned into a wishing well, leaving Lu Yang utterly bemused.

“Where is this Power of Faith coming from?” Lu Yang, who was in the midst of Crossing the Immortal Tribulation, suddenly felt the Power of Faith surging from all directions.

After entering a new era, many cultivators in the Cultivation World liked to take shortcuts, showing off their Divine Abilities in live streams, gathering the Power of Faith to advance at a rapid pace. The Mid-heaven Emperor Lord and The Controller, upon learning of this, lamented not being born in such a fortunate era.

However, Lu Yang clearly wasn’t one to follow this path. He drew a ring with his sword tip, isolating himself from all the Power of Faith.

The dark clouds split open, unleashing terrifying Chaotic Divine Light, which left the onlookers in awe, but Lu Yang showed no sign of panic. With a single sword strike, he shattered the Chaotic Divine Light, handling it with ease.

The Vast Sea Daoist Lord, who was enjoying his honeymoon, heard that Lu Yang was Passing the Immortal Tribulation and immediately opened a spatial channel to arrive, laughing and scolding, “This little brat’s cultivation speed is truly fast.”

Celestial Master Guiyuan invited a few of his old brothers to the Seek Dao Sect to see how outstanding their junior brothers were, and whether other sects could even compare.

The Demon Emperor Zhu Tian called his ministers to the Imperial Palace to watch Lu Yang Passing the Tribulation together.

As the initiator of the Great World Struggle and the son of the era’s destiny, Zhu Tian felt that he had the potential to become immortal, but the existence of the Qilin Immortal above him meant he would definitely not achieve immortality.

He regretfully hit his leg: “I chose the wrong Dao Fruit!”

If he had known, he would have chosen a different Dao Fruit.

The Sword Tower Supreme, watching through the live broadcast, exclaimed in admiration: “As expected of Lu Yang, the one with the greatest talent since ancient times.”

She failed the Immortal Ascension Tribulation and survived by a stroke of luck; she knew all too well the terrifying tribulation one must endure to become immortal.

Thinking back to the extreme torment she experienced during her own tribulation, and then seeing how Lu Yang seemed to be taking a leisurely walk, a gap surfaced in her heart, being a fellow Sword Cultivator, and myriad emotions condensed into a sigh: “I cannot compare.”

The Four Ancient Immortals had arrived at the Seek Dao Sect and were equally moved by the sight; they did not have it as easy as Lu Yang when they themselves Passed the Immortal Ascension Tribulation.

“It’s almost like passing the Immortal Ascension as an Immortal.” Immortal Jiuchong lamented; among those he knew, only the Immortal Fairy could Pass the Tribulation with such ease.

“After all, he was seen by the Immortal and has known the Immortal since the Foundation Establishment Stage,” said the Qilin Immortal. This was tantamount to having an immortal accompany him from the beginning of his cultivation; whose cultivation conditions could be so favorable.

“Indeed, it would be strange if he turned out weak with such nurturing.”

Lu Yang weighed the Green Peak Sword in his hand, then stored it in his Identity Jade Pendant. Using the Immortal Sword for the tribulation felt like cheating; he preferred to let go of it to refine his swordsmanship.

Without the Green Peak Sword to dissolve the Heavenly Tribulation, the pressure on Lu Yang doubled.

A muffled rumbling sound came from the sky; it was the new wave of attack being brewed by the Heavenly Tribulation.

The lightning was endless, turning into Hongmeng Purple Qi and smashing towards Lu Yang, vast and unrivaled.

Lu Yang bit his tongue tip, and with his fingers together, he shot out a vibrating Sword Qi, slashing through in one swoop, cutting the Hongmeng Purple Qi in two; his Sword Qi’s might remained undiminished, splitting the Immortal Ascension Tribulation in half!
