Chapter 2531: Undergoing Tribulation
Clouds began covering the previously clear sky, turning it dark. Lightning crackled amid the clouds. An inexplicable air of heaviness and solemnity lingered in the surroundings. Countless birds and ferocious beasts in the nearby mountain forests fled in a fluster. Before this, no one had known that there were so many living beings residing in the vicinity.
Even the Mermaid Queen felt difficulty breathing. Her face paled in shock. “What’s going on?”
Yumen Beiqing grimly replied, “He’s about to undergo a heavenly tribulation.”
“Heavenly tribulation?” The Mermaid Queen was taken aback.
“It is a trial mortals have to overcome to become immortals.” Yumen Beiqing looked at Zu An’s silhouette with a deep gaze.
“I heard that most people die amid their heavenly tribulation. Will big brother Zu be fine?” the Mermaid Queen asked.
She came from the Cultivation World of thousands of years ago, when its ki was much stronger. She had heard legends about heavenly tribulation.
“It will be dangerous, but you don’t have to worry about him. He should be able to deal with it. Let’s leave this place first, lest we be implicated by his tribulation lightning,” Yumen Beiqing said as she grabbed the Mermaid Queen’s arm and flew away.
“Are you sure he can deal with it?” The Mermaid Queen was so worried that she wanted to find assurance from Yumen Beiqing.
“Let’s watch and see.” As she watched Zu An’s silhouette, Yumen Beiqing’s face flickered under the flashes of lightning.
She didn’t tell the Mermaid Queen the truth. Most people lost their lives while undergoing the heavenly tribulation, and that was considering how most challengers would have prepared pills, artifacts, and even had elders or daoist companions protecting them nearby.
