Chapter 1057: Bai Suzhen's Choice
As countless golden sword qi descended from the tribulation clouds, Li Lingxi's expression turned grave.
The Great heaven Mirror, which had absorbed the nine thunder dragons earlier, seed to have reached its limit.
Although it wasn't destroyed, it clearly couldn't withstand this round of tal Tribulation.
"The Five Elent Tribulation has begun. The Great heaven Mirror won't last. As the Sect Master of the Divine Dan Sect, Li Lingxi must have other treasures to rely on.
She might survive this tal Tribulation, but she'll be helpless against the next Wood Tribulation."
"It's ti to end this. Let it end quickly to avoid any complications. Once the heavenly tribulation destroys them, we can push things further. Dan City no longer needs to exist."
"The cultivation world is indeed saturated. With one less faction, we can allocate more resources to ourselves."
"It's a pity about the alchemists of the Divine Dan Sect, though. Such talents are precious resources."
"..."
Outside of the tribulation clouds, many were discussing the situation in this manner. Only a handful of them felt sorrow for the Divine Dan Sect.
This was the true nature of the cultivation world-cruel and indifferent.
In Dan City, countless people had already closed their eyes and silently awaited death.
Li Lingxi took a deep breath, her right hand forming a seal to control the Great heaven Mirror while her left hand's storage ring flickered.
Above her head, a massive seal resembling white jade appeared.
It exuded a magnificent, dominating aura and rapidly expanded, forming a second line of defense beneath the Great heaven Mirror.
"The Heavenly Emperor's Seal! I never expected Li Lingxi to possess such an artifact. The Divine Dan Sect is truly wealthy."
"Let's hope the Great heaven Mirror and the Heavenly Emperor's Seal survive this Five Elent Tribulation."
"..."
Outside of the tribulation clouds, greed flickered in the eyes of many people.
To them, the Divine Dan Sect was already dood.
They weren't just eyeing the sect's resources, but also the divine artifacts in Li Lingxi's possession.
When Li Lingxi fully activated the Heavenly Emperor's Seal, the golden sword qi slamd into the Great heaven Mirror.
The surface of the mirror rippled violently like a storm on the ocean.
Golden light filled the eyes of the onlookers, accompanied by the clash of tal.
However, the Great heaven Mirror only held for a few breaths before cracks appeared.
The higher-level cultivators of the Divine Dan Sect paled with fear.
The Great heaven Mirror was sent flying, severely damaged and unable to withstand any more energy.
Next, the Heavenly Emperor's Seal took the brunt of it.
Bright yellow light erupted from it, and a towering illusory figure materialized above it.
The figure exuded dominance, like an ancient emperor.
It pointed a finger toward the incoming sword qi, obliterating dozens of them.
The yellow energy ford a protective barrier around Li Lingxi and Bai Suzhen.
Bai Suzhen gazed at the tribulation clouds, her sapphire blue eyes flashing with defiance and acceptance.
She turned her head, as if looking back at Su Jingzhen through the crumbling spatial passage.
"Farewell, you brat," she murmured, her eyes filled with tenderness.
Every scale on her body radiated a dazzling blue-white light.
Surrounded by multicolored brilliance, she appeared sacred and majestic. An indomitable fighting spirit surged out from her.
Noticing Bai Suzhen's change, Li Lingxi asked urgently, "What are you doing?"
Bai Suzhen remained calm. "Your Heavenly Emperor's Seal is powerful, but its protection is spread too thin. Since this tribulation is partly mine, I should face it myself. I've reached heights I never imagined. I have no regrets. I hope you survive."
With these words, Bai Suzhen's massive snake form shot forward, breaking free from the seal's protection.
A blinding blue-white beam of light erupted from her head - the Chaos Calamity Light of an Immortal King. It shattered the golden sword qi upon contact.
"Incredible! The legendary Chaos Celestial Serpent can withstand an Immortal Emperor-level Five Elental Tribulation with her Immortal King strength. But it's futile."
"Too bad."
"..."
Many expressed their admiration for Bai Suzhen, even as they acknowledged her inevitable fate.
Li Lingxi's expression was complex, but she remained silent.
She couldn't interfere with Bai Suzhen's decision, especially when she was struggling to survive herself.
Bai Suzhen's decision seed right, and Li Lingxi could only lant her terrible luck.
With the Heavenly Emperor's Seal now focused solely on protecting her, its power beca more concentrated.
anwhile, high in the sky, Bai Suzhen had barely dispersed the first wave of sword qi when a second wave descended.
She hadn't had ti to gather another Chaos Calamity Light, and the golden sword qi was already upon her.
"Roar!"
Her thousand-zhang-long snake body twisted violently.
Her scales, once glowing with blue-white light, were now drenched in blood.
Deep wounds, so reaching down to the bone, covered her body.
The fact that she hadn't been torn to pieces was a testant to the toughness of the Chaos Celestial Serpent race.
Yet, even more powerful sword qi was brewing within the tribulation clouds. Bai Suzhen was at her limit.
"Sigh..."
Despite the pain, Bai Suzhen remained calm. A soft sigh escaped from her, though it was unclear why.
The heavenly tribulation wouldn't stop for anyone's sorrow.
As she closed her sapphire blue eyes, a new wave of golden sword qi descended upon her. But this ti, the expected pain didn't co. Instead, she heard the clashing sound of tal.
Confused, Bai Suzhen opened her eyes to see a slender yet resolute figure standing before her.
Above them was a dark, mysterious tower, blocking the incoming sword qi.
