Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough
chapter-935

The power of the tribulation ended up being further enhanced due to the presence of the massive demon beast already in the Domain Lord Realm. Resulting in the strength of the tribulation reaching a level far above something that even a normal Domain Lord Realm Expert would be able to endure-

ROOOOOAR-!

ROOOAR!

For this reason, the painful roars of two demon beasts soon echoed through the entire forest, as the tribulation clouds above continued to send down endless streams of thunder, each more powerful than the last.

In the end culminating in a vortex of thunder gathering above the two demon beasts who had already been reduced to a half dead state under the constant attack from the tribulation above. The power contained inside the vortex far surpassing anything the two demon beasts had ever witnessed before!

A testament as to why one should never try to interfere someone else's in a tribulation…

Crackle~!

As the power of the thunder gathered in the tribulation seemed to have reached the limit of what could be archived by a Domain Lord Realm Tribulation, the thunder vortex rotating menacingly above the two demon beasts, unleashed its devastating power.

RUMBLE-!

Bolts of lightning streaked down, lashing out at the two half-dead demon beasts below. Each strike carried an unimaginable force that would even leave a Peak Domain Lord Realm Expert shivering in fear, as they tore through the demon beasts already wounded forms and shrouding them in an ethereal radiance.

BOOOOOOOOM-!

The unleashed energy reverberated through the forest, causing shockwaves that swept across the land, uprooting everything in their path. Soon reaching the escaping Chu Yang and Qing Yi-

"Ah!?"

"Waaaaa-"

Who were both sent flying by the powerful shockwave with a few minor injuries. Having at the very least managed to escape far enough that the power of the shockwave had weakened significantly by the time that it reached them.

BOOM! BOOM!

ROOOOAR-!

The deafening cacophony of thunder and the agonized cries of the demon beasts that weakened with each passing second continued for another few minutes before the thunder clouds above slowly dispersed. Leaving behind a massive crater thousands of meters wide and a forest that had been reduced to nothing more than ash.

Even if the forest was still around, the scar created by the tribulation cloud of the mole demon beast would forever be present in the forest. Something that could not be said about the mole demon beast, that had completely disappeared from the surface of the earth following the tribulation clouds disappearance…

The only people left alive to have witnessed the entire scene, was Chu Yang and Qing Yi, who had just gotten up again after a rather rough landing.

"Did the mole demon beast and the Domain Lord Realm demon beast… Die?"

"I think so…"

As they ignored their injuries for a short time and decided to take in the scene of destruction left behind, Chu Yang and Qing Yi finally realized that they had just witnessed the death of the mole demon beast and a Domain Lord Realm demon beast.

Domain Lord Realm, a realm that was still far away from them at the moment… And now they had actually witnessed the death of such a powerful expert. Not to mention, it was a Domain Lord Realm demon beast that was normally stronger than that of a human Domain Lord Realm Expert!

Other than this, the most important thing was that they had managed to get a chance to witness the tribulation of someone trying to break through to the Domain Lord Realm. Even if the strength of the tribulation had been far stronger than a normal tribulation, it was still a valuable experience that would be able to help them in the future when they were about to go through the Domain Lord Realm Tribulation by themselves. Not to mention, part of the lightning from the tribulation could still be seen flowing through the ground at the center of the crater.

Although the lightning was weak, after observing it with their divine sense, Qing Yi and Chu Yang both felt that their understanding of lightning increased.

ROOOAR!

ROOOOAR!

ROOAR!

However, before they could continue observing the traces of lighting still flowing through the ground around the center crater, several loud roars no weaker than the Domain Lord Realm demon beast that had just died, could be heard coming from all around them.

Whoosh-!

Whoosh-!

Not even a second later, two large figures appeared in the air above the crater-

Whoosh-!

Followed by a third, all of which had reached the Domain Lord Realm!

"I think it's time for us to leave."

"Indeed…

Knowing that nothing good would come from staying, both Chu Yang and Qing Yi didn't dare stay for even a second longer, as they ran away as fast as possible before any of the Domain Lord Realm demon beasts happened to notice them.

…

Not aware of the dangerous situation that his disciples had once again found themselves in, Xuan Hao looked behind himself for any signs of the two Peak Soul Ascension Realm demon beasts. Only after making sure that none of the two Peak Soul Ascension Realm demon beasts had chased after him, did he allow himself to relax before starting to examine his surroundings.

Taking in the tranquil stillness that pervaded through the forest and the towering trees, Xuan Hao marveled at the magical scene of the vibrant moss and delicate vines adorning their thick trunks. Only now that he took some time to relax, realizing just how beautiful these large trees covering the entire mountain range were.

"Hm?"

Turning his gaze away from the towering trees and the canopy blocking out most of the light from the sun above, Xuan Hao could not help showing a surprised expression on his face after turning his attention towards the forest floor beneath his feet.

Amidst the towering trees, something catches his attention, a faint, meandering path, barely visible in the vibrant carpet of emerald-green moss beneath him.

"A path? Why is there a path like this in a forest filled with demon beasts? Unless…"

Intrigued by the appearance of a path in a place where he had only encountered demon beasts so far, Xuan Hao realized that this might have something to do with the formation that had trapped him and curiously began inspecting the path beneath his feet.

The path itself continued deeper into the forest and with nothing to lose given his current trapped state without learning the long distance teleportation from the third level of the Spatial Shift technique, Xuan Hao decided to follow the path. Making sure to keep his distance from the path just in case it was trapped.

Having already walked on the path inside the mist, Xuan Hao didn't want to end up in a similar situation again. Especially considering that he might end up accidentally walking back in the direction of the empty void where all of the powerful demon beasts were currently gathered if the path was similar to the one in the mist.

Gradually, as he continued walking beside the path deeper into the forest, it slowly transformed from a barely visible path, into a slender trail of downtrodden grass and earth that winded its way around the towering trees in seemingly endless manner without any endpoint in sight.

If not for the fact that the path was constantly changing and becoming more visible, he would have thought that it would be the same as the path in the mist and would end up leading him around in a circle through the entire forest.

"Hm? Looks like the path is coming to an end…"

After walking for what ended up feeling like an hour or two, Xuan Hao let out a sigh of relief as he looked at the path that slowly came to an end a dozen or so meters ahead of him.

To be honest, after an hour of following the path, he had started to think about the possibility that the illusion was more advanced this time around and had the ability to change the path slightly as he moved alongside it. Luckily, it looked like this was not the case, as the path did come to an end.

"A gate…?" Looking at the place that the path ended, a large gate towering above the surrounding trees quietly stood there. Although calling it a simple gate would be doing it a disservice…

Towering high up into the sky, its grand archway carved from luminous spiritual stones that gave off an ethereal radiance. Elaborate patterns, intricate and complex, adorned its surface, telling tales of ancient legends and wonders beyond mortal comprehension.

Whoosh~

Streams of shimmering energy filled with spirituality flowed along its edges, like the entrance to a higher plane of existence. Looking closer, the gate itself almost seemed to possess a sentience of its own, emanating a palpable aura of primordial power.

Compared to a simple gate, a resplendent marvel of divine craftmanship was a more fitting way to describe the gate.
