Master of Strange Dao

When truly pushed to the edge, this malicious tribulation cloud will undoubtedly strike with all its might at those below.

Either the Big Island Cave Heaven gets destroyed, or the deans below, who cannot back down or accept such an outcome, will fight back with all their strength. Inevitably, several deans will die, and many will be seriously injured.

Yu Ziqing could not accept any of these outcomes.

Yu Ziqing unleashed himself, relying on his inability to be quickly killed and maintaining his peak state for an entire day.

Utilizing the destructive tribulation cloud, he crazily honed his body, persistently depleting its power.

In fact, if he absorbed the Tribulation Power, transforming it into rosy clouds, the effect would be better.

But Yu Ziqing always felt that it was best not to use such a trump card here, as he would surely encounter such situations again in the future.

Yu Ziqing roamed within the tribulation cloud, constantly diving deeper into the heart of the destructive cloud, feeling the pressure mounting, yet sensing he was not just moving from the edges to the center of the cloud.

It seemed as if this tribulation cloud transformed into a passage linking to some unknown realm.

The further he ventured, the stronger and purer the malice became, as if it were something entirely different from the Mud Sea of the Muddied World.

"Here I come! With such immense malice, won't you come to greet your guest?"

"Put more effort into it, haven't you eaten? Oh, sorry, I forgot, you probably haven't eaten."

"If you don't step up your game, my Body Refinement is about to break through. Ah, the foundation and depth are incredibly solid."

As Yu Ziqing progressed faster, he moved forward while taunting, laughing more joyously with every step.

The malice, uncontrollable as it seemed, began converging upon Yu Ziqing.

The malice incessantly corroded Yu Ziqing's heart, igniting the Red Ape within, the fire of rage engulfing him entirely.

His eyes burned with flames, his taunts turning into a low growl.

"Come on, bring it on, kill me if you can! If you can't, I'm coming in, I'm going to see you!"

The surrounding tribulation clouds transformed into something like Black Fire, rolling and forming a vortex, while Yu Ziqing's eyes burned with fury as he peered deeper into the abyss.

Faintly, through the vortex, he glimpsed the tip of an iceberg, seeing a gigantic tentacle stretching between heaven and earth, laden with decay and pollution, akin to the deepest evils and filth of the world.

The immense tentacle quickly swept through the vortex's center, vanishing from sight.

A mighty force burst forth, impacting Yu Ziqing.

Yu Ziqing's flesh and bones shattered, even his Yang God started to suffer, yet simultaneously, a Strange Technique, its effect, continuously restoring him.

Yu Ziqing gritted his teeth, revealing a mouthful of silver teeth on one side of his face, yet could no longer advance further.

The force blew against him like a fierce wind, compelling him to retreat.

Striding forcibly forward, he transformed into a skeleton, the gap seemingly too vast for even the Strange Technique to restore him in time.

Cracks appeared densely upon his bones, only to be repaired again, turning his bones as hard as jade, gentle yet firm.

From within the vortex, a tide surged once more, sweeping Yu Ziqing off his feet and sending him flying backward.

An instant later, it seemed he returned to the black tribulation cloud.

His body fully restored, Yang God regenerated; he sensed the ever-strengthening cloud finally ceased its growth, rapidly declining as it expended itself.

The destructive tribulation cloud, its strength consumed by Yu Ziqing, was suppressed and annihilated by normal tribulation clouds.

In just an hour, the destructive tribulation cloud was utterly gone.

Meanwhile, the normal tribulation cloud, as usual, left a space around Yu Ziqing, as if about to dissipate.

Yu Ziqing hurriedly exclaimed.

"Leaving so soon? If you leave, I'm dead!

I've spent painstaking efforts in the Southern Sea setting up a scheme, all for this world.

To withstand that terrifying evil, to steal the evil of the heavenly tribulation, I've put my life on the line.

Moreover, that evil hasn't been destroyed; I saw it, and it has been exposed.

Next time, it won't be able to steal the heavenly tribulation so silently.

If you leave, leave your power with me, I'll use it to pay back the debt.

If I die, there will be no one else to do such selfless deeds next time."

Yu Ziqing, regardless of its effectiveness, simply conveyed his thoughts clearly.

Seeing the tribulation cloud beginning to dissipate, Yu Ziqing panicked.

In this short time, theoretically, his body had been obliterated at least thousands of times.

How could he pay back the debt?

"This isn't exploiting the heavenly tribulation; it's surviving the heavenly tribulation, reaping its benefits in the end.

Where is it acceptable to risk life crossing a tribulation, only to gain nothing in return?

This defies the heavenly way, defies heavenly principles!"

After Yu Ziqing finished speaking, the soon dissipating tribulation clouds transformed into brilliant rosy clouds, continuously merging into Yu Ziqing's body.

The entirety of the tribulation cloud's power directly infused into him as if encouraging him to take as much as he could.

Seeing the power surging in, Yu Ziqing disregarded digestion, immediately utilizing it to repay the debt.

He was unwilling to use his lifespan to repay, as even sacrificing all of it might not suffice.

The rosy clouds relentlessly poured in, Yu Ziqing's body like a bottomless pit, never fully filled.

For nearly an hour, Yu Ziqing felt he had almost repaid enough, then began retaining a portion to bolster himself as a tribulation-crossing reward.

By the end of the day, his Realm had long fallen from the Ninth Tier Peak, but the unpaid loan was finally settled.
