Qing Wan felt that such matters were still rather distant for her.
"And those who didn’t make it?"
"Those who didn’t make it, unless they’re lucky enough to dissolve into a freewheeling immortal, will otherwise perish and return to the earth."
Listening to what Qing Wan said, Lin Fan gazed into the distance at the Heavenly Road.
There stood an altar, above which black clouds churned, and one could vaguely see purple thunder boiling within. The rotating black cloud vortex resembled a giant abyssal mouth capable of devouring all, making any cultivator within it appear exceedingly insignificant.
"Soon, very soon."
Hope was evident in Lin Fan’s eyes. "Thank you, Qing Wan Daoist friend."
"Thank you for what?"
Qing Wan didn’t understand what Lin Fan ant. Just as she was gathering her thoughts, she saw Lin Fan heading towards the Heavenly Road, and she shouted in shock.
"Hey, co back, return quickly. The Heavenly Road is sealed off; you can’t go there, and you’ll die."
Qing Wan wanted to rush after him, but as she approached the Heavenly Road, the terrifying pressure intensified, weighing her down so much that she could hardly lift her legs.
It’s over.
This guy from the lower realm is courting death.
Wait a minute, how co he can withstand this pressure?
Qing Wan didn’t think too much about it and quickly crushed a talisman.
A mont later.
Several powerful auras erupted within the Yin Yang Sect.
"Who dares to bully my sister Qing Zhanyang?" A domineering voice sounded, followed promptly by a robust man in a long robe rushing over. Seeing his sister Qing Wan standing there unhard, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, he wants to use the Heavenly Road to reach the True Immortal Realm. I told him it was very dangerous, but he wouldn’t listen. Hurry and stop him, or if he’s struck down by lightning, it’ll be indirectly my fault."
Qing Wan was rather anxious.
At this mont, not only had Qing Zhanyang arrived, but even the Yin Yang Sect Leader and many elders hurried over, given the sensitivity of the location as the site of the Heavenly Road.
"Daoist friend, please hold your steps. I am the Yin Yang Sect Leader. The Heavenly Road is sealed, and ascension is a thing of the past; there’s no need to take such risks."
The Yin Yang Sect Leader knew that the unfamiliar daoist’s cultivation was extraordinary. After all, anyone who could withstand the pressure of the Heavenly Road had to be at the Tribulation Crossing Realm; otherwise, an ordinary cultivator would either be immobilized by this pressure or be crushed outright.
Upon hearing the voice, Lin Fan halted, turned back, and clasped his hands apologetically, saying, "Firstly, I apologize to everyone here for coming uninvited. I wish to use the Heavenly Road to reach the True Immortal Realm, and though Miss Qing Wan has already told about the seal, I still wish to try. I hope everyone will understand."
As he approached the Heavenly Road, he had felt the terrifying pressure it exuded, but the situation was manageable; it did not affect him much.
Everything was within bearable limits.
"Daoist friend, the sealing of the Heavenly Road is not by our Yin Yang Sect, but is laid by actual immortals. Any Tribulation Crossing cultivator appearing below the Heavenly Road must endure the calamity of ascension, three disasters, and seven tribulations, each disaster daunting, every tribulation perilous. Even if one passes, ahead lies an immortal-blocking gate set by immortals. Daoist friend, there’s really no need for unnecessary endeavors."
The Yin Yang Sect Leader voiced his warning, unwilling to see this unfamiliar daoist die in vain.
"Thank you for the warning. In this life, I have a quest to pursue, and upon completion, I will certainly express my gratitude."
Lin Fan clasped his hands in salute and then turned, without looking back, to step towards the center of the altar.
"Sect Leader, what should we do?" Qing Zhanyang hurriedly asked.
"It’s too late now; he’s entered the scope of the Heavenly Road, and the tribulations have begun. Look..." The Yin Yang Sect Leader pointed towards the sky, where a fearso black wind had appeared.
"This is the wind calamity among the three disasters, the Black Sun Wind Calamity."
Qing Zhanyang’s heart trembled. In this wind calamity, it seed as if a round black sun flickered, and those who endured it, while their bodies remained unhard, would have their souls wavering, disintegrating if they could not withstand it, with no chance even for dissolution into immortality.
Lin Fan looked at the intimidating black wind.
The Black Sun Wind Calamity howled towards Lin Fan as if driven by intelligence. Lin Fan launched a punch towards the direction of the incoming wind calamity. A seemingly ordinary punch yet brimming with terrifying power, twisting the void and shattering it, instantly enveloping the Black Sun Wind Calamity, annihilating it.
"What?"
The many Yin Yang Sect cultivators watching widened their eyes, rubbing them incredulously.
"Sect Leader, can the Black Sun Wind Calamity be destroyed by a punch?" Qing Zhanyang exclaid in surprise.
"This..."
The Yin Yang Sect Leader remained silent, never having seen such a thod. In the past, those crossing the tribulation would use treasure to protect their souls from the Black Sun Wind Calamity. Utilizing the power of a punch to break it, however, was unheard of.
He looked at the daoist standing there, utterly motionless, pondering, who is this person?
The second disaster arrived.
Boundless flas appeared out of nowhere.
"The Great Sun Fire Calamity has co."
The Yin Yang Sect Leader muttered to himself, though he had crossed the thunder tribulation, he had not experienced the tribulations of the Heavenly Road. In his quest for immortality, he had thoroughly studied the Heavenly Road’s disasters.
"Sect Leader, this Great Sun Fire Calamity clings and won’t extinguish. To break through, apart from requiring deep mana, it’s best to have a water-attribute immortal treasure to counteract it."
Qing Zhantian was equally well-versed in the three disasters. Any cultivator reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm would search for or craft treasures to counter the three disasters, used to overco them.
