I Might Be A Fake Cultivator
chapter-1952

No one knew where Xiao Hong had gone.

Everyone was greeted by the sight of a sea of light.

“It looks like she has transcended.” Bai Ling adjusted her glasses with a smile. “She has evolved and ascended to a new plane, thereby completely disappearing from this world without a trace. If she can even sever her own karma…”

All of a sudden, boundless golden light spread across the entire sky!

The true intent of dao surged through the entire heaven and earth, becoming more and more substantial.

Just as all of the disciples were marveling at the scenes unfolding before their eyes, pure darkness descended from the sky, attempting to tear apart this golden light. That darkness was absolute and boundless, encroaching upon the sea of light and threatening to engulf it in its entirety.

“Is this Xiao Hong’s divine dao tribulation? How terrifying…” Xiao Ze wore a grave expression.

He could sense a power that struck fear into even his heart within the darkness.

All top-rate mighty figures who wanted to progress to the Dao Integration Stage had to transcend a divine dao tribulation.

Divine dao tribulations came in all shapes and sizes and were a manifestation of the tribulation transcenders divine dao, inner demons, and lethal flaws. If the tribulation transcender was unable to maintain a perfected divine dao during this process and gain acknowledgment from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, death would be the only fate that awaited them.

Of course, if they successfully transcended their tribulation, their divine dao would be acknowledged by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, thereby allowing them to exist for all of eternity between heaven and earth, attaining true immortality.

However, immortality did not equate to invincibility. This was why Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures could still fall despite their theoretical immortality.

“Such pure darkness… Could it be that Xiao Hong’s divine dao is not the sun, but instead… light?” Xiao Tu was shocked as he looked up at the light and darkness in the sky.

“If this really is light and Xiao Hong managed to successfully transcend her tribulation, then she would become very badass…” Xiao Ze sighed with emotion.

They were both True Dragons who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years and had come to the Tai Chu Continent from the Ancient Tai Chu Dragon Realm. They were extremely experienced and knowledgeable and knew what the divine dao of light entailed.

There was no high or low dao.

However, there was a differentiation between strong and weak.

Dao that encompassed all things was the most powerful.

These included dao like light, darkness, life, death…

Below that were the unique ones like the sun or the moon or the dao of the four Holy Beasts.

If Xiao Hong successfully integrated the dao of light, her combat prowess would become unimaginably powerful.

“Brother, have you seen a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure with the divine dao of light?” Xiao Ze asked.

Xiao Tu shook his head. “Never. I’ve lived for close to a million years, and I’ve only ever seen three Return to Void Stage mighty figures with the divine dao of light. However, all of them were completely engulfed by darkness during their tribulations.”

Xiao Ze: “…”

He was suddenly very worried about Xiao Hong.

In the sky above, light and darkness were still combatting one another.

No one knew what was happening; they could only see the sea of light and boundless darkness in the sky tearing at one another. The golden light wanted to illuminate the darkness, while the darkness was trying to engulf all light.

One hour later.

The light was beginning to shrink at a rate discernible to the naked eye.

“Big Sister Bai.” Ye Ling was getting quite nervous.

“This tribulation transcendence has completely exceeded my expectations. I might not be able to save Xiao Hong…” Bai Ling’s palms were sweating profusely as massive amounts of information flashed through her eyes.

Generally speaking, tribulation transcenders had physical bodies. Xiao Hong had transformed into light; how was Bai Ling supposed to protect her?!

No… There was another way; she could use the Dimension Manipulation Dark Box to freeze this entire dimension, then store the light into the box, and that would perhaps allow Xiao Hong to resist this boundless darkness. However, she had to make sure that Xiao Hong was captured in her entirety. If not, she would instantly die…

Bai Ling fell into deep thought.

Any part of that light could be Xiao Hong.

It was way too difficult to gauge.

The elders and disciples on the grasslands suddenly let loose cries of surprise.

Bai Ling looked up into the sky to find that the golden light was quickly receding and was now only the size of the sun.

The sun should illuminate heaven and earth, but it was enshrouded by darkness, making it look more like the moon. No, even the moon had a light that could illuminate heaven and earth. However, Xiao Hong’s golden light was unable to illuminate anything as it was being completely engulfed by the darkness.

The darkness was like a massive, terrifying mouth chomping down upon the moon.

“Xiao Hong!”

“Elder Xiao Hong!”

The disciples and elders on the grasslands were getting extremely tense. Some of them even had tears flowing down their faces, as if they were looking at their most beloved mascot slowly being taken away from them.

Xiao Hong was already at the end of the road, and there was no time for hesitation!

Bai Ling spread open her hands, and an inky-black cube appeared, hovering between her hands. The space around the cube suddenly froze, as if an independent domain had been created.

Dimension Manipulation Dark Box.!

If she could store Xiao Hong into this box…

Whoosh!

The ravaged sun in the sky suddenly crashed to the ground and smashed a massive crater into the tribulation transcendence formation.

Xiao Hong lay at the center of the crater in a red dress with her entire body riddled with wounds.

Her incredibly gorgeous features instantly had all of the disciples floundering in shock.

This was… Elder Xiao Hong?

Had Elder Xiao Hong always been this beautiful?

“Pfff…” Xiao Hong threw up a mouthful of blood, and her aura quickly receded. Not only was her jade-like skin losing its luster, but even her long, black hair was also beginning to lose its color, as if she were a wilting flower.

The darkness in the sky descended in an attempt to engulf Xiao Hong’s body.

Bai Ling quickly rushed over to try and protect Xiao Hong.

“Big Sister Bai! Stay back!” Xiao Hong suddenly yelled.

Bai Ling’s footsteps faltered as a stunned expression appeared on her face.

“I haven’t lost…” Xiao Hong looked up at the oncoming darkness with a stubborn expression. “Even if the darkness snaps my spine and takes away everything I have, I still won’t lose…”

Bai Ling gritted her teeth. Xiao Hong was about to die, and she was still refusing help?

Everyone was struck by a sense of grief and sorrow as they anticipated Xiao Hong’s inevitable fate.

Right at this moment, a gargantuan rift suddenly opened up in the darkness up above. A terrifying aura that struck everyone with a sense of asphyxiation swept through heaven and earth.

“What’s going on?”

“Why did space crack open?!”

“Is this an enemy invasion? Everyone be on your guard!”

The elders and pavilion lords all became quite tense.

All of a sudden, extremely pure yellow holy flames tore through darkness.

Everyone’s expression shifted, but before they had a chance to do anything, icy blue holy flames pierced through the darkness and froze everything in their wake.

Immediately afterward, You Luo, Tian Jin, Huan Jin, Tai Jing…

One holy flame after another incinerated the sky, bringing with them boundless light.

Xiao Hong looked up into the sky, and the light of the holy flames colored her gorgeous features a variety of different colors.

A familiar, white-robed figure appeared before her eyes…

“Master…”

Xiao Hong let loose a feeble cry.

Her master had appeared during the most critical moment of her tribulation transcendence.

She couldn’t help but recall the first time she met her master. At that time, she was just about to transform into a human when her master suddenly appeared and sat on her, thereby snapping her stem.

Master wasn’t going to do the same thing here, was he?

An enticing smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Hong’s face as these thoughts sprang into her mind. Her skin and hair began to regain their luster and shine.

“I understand the true meaning of light now!”

Xiao Hong stood up, and a golden light burst forth from her heart, creating a thin barrier that kept the oncoming darkness at bay.

“The majority of the world comprises of darkness and nothingness. Light only shines upon a tiny part of the world, but it represents hope and infinite possibilities.”

Xiao Hong scaled up an invisible staircase into the sky toward An Lin.

Her red dress danced in the wind like a fiery red rose.

“I praise the sun every day as it’s the source of light.”

Soon, Xiao Hong arrived before An Lin and looked in his eyes with an elated smile on her face. “What I’m truly praising is light, which can bring hope and goodness to this world. Master… even when we’ve fallen into darkness, we must yearn for light!”

A sweet and enticing voice reverberated by An Lin’s ear.

The boundless darkness in the sky also receded in the face of Xiao Hong’s dazzling smile.

At that moment, Xiao Hong successfully integrated her dao of light and broke through to the Dao Integration Stage!
