Shi Lang and the other two entered the palace and then moved through the void at neck-breaking speed before arriving at the edge of the desert. They came out of the palace after ensuring nobody was around. The three of them walked over the coarse sand and traveled slowly.
The void trembled slowly over time. After traveling for three days, they passed by some similar spots and rested.
Shi Lang said, "The clones I made have also been traveling the battlefield. Although they did not find much, we have much information about this place. The future dwellers will not have a problem. I will draw a map."
The two nodded. They had stopped being surprised by anything Shi Lang did. They would believe if this man said he could grab the sun. The three arrived at the approximate location where they entered his world and waited. Although they would have been taken back from anywhere in the realm, the pressure on their body would increase, and if someone acted nosy during the process, they would die.
As they waited, two days passed, and just when the sun was about to set on the second day, Shi Lang stood up and said, "It is time."
The duo also sensed the oddity of the void, and they stood beside him. Soon, a void tunnel opened before them. Shi Lang held their hands, and they jumped inside it.
...
Lei Wang was waiting for the three people to leave the void tunnel with Lady Xue, the sect master of the Snow Maiden Peak, and Sect Master Ling. They had come over to welcome their disciples, but they had returned to see that the other sects did not bully the young people.
The gains can always make a person give up the cloak of morale. The three of them were standing with solemn expressions on their faces. After all, when the geniuses from the Dragon Sword Sect entered the palace in the past, not all made it back alive.
As they got anxious, the void tunnel trembled, and three figures jumped out. The sect masters saw it, and they were immediately happy. All of them came back, and as experts of Immortal King Realm and above, they could tell that the three of them were stronger than before.
Lei Wang stepped up and wanted to embrace Bo Qingtan when the latter said, "Brother Shi, I cannot suppress it any longer."
Yun Xue said, "Same with me."
Shi Lang sighed and said, "Fine then, we go to the periphery of Coiling Dragon Mountain and break through over there."
The two nodded to him without question, and Shi Lang bowed slightly, "Forgive me, Sect Master, we have been suppressing our realm a bit too much these past few days. We are all on the verge of breaking through. So, may we go to the Coiling Dragon Mountain?"
Lei Hu was shocked but could sense that the spiritual pressure from these guys was climbing. He nodded and said, "We will take you there now."
Shi Lang nodded, and Lei Wang exchanged a gaze with his counterparts, and they all came to stand next to their respective disciples before they vanished from their spots. The three of them were quick to take action.
It did not take them more than a few moments when they arrived at the periphery of the Coiling Dragon Mountain. The sect masters retreated a small distance, but they did not leave. The disciples were about to go through a heavenly tribulation, so they protected the surroundings.
Shi Lang and the other two sat down in the lotus position and began completing the last steps needed to enter the Immortal Lord realm.
...
Lady Xue said, "This should not have happened for the next ten years. They must have had a fruitful encounter."
She spoke with telepathic communication. Sect Master Ling said, "True. What you are saying is correct. However, it is a good thing for them."
Lei Wang nodded as he watched them condense their spirit energy. Lady Xue remarked speculatively, "I wonder what sort of armor they will condense."
Sect Master Ling chuckled and said, "I want to see what domain level they will comprehend. After all, that is the most difficult thing for them to condense."
Lei Wang nodded and replied, "Brother Ling, you have to get Shi Lang to enter the forbidden region of your sect. His inheritance will be cut off otherwise."
Sect Master Ling nodded and said, "Of course, I have discussed this matter with my elders, and everyone has agreed. We do not wish to stand like a wall in his path of greatness."
As the three were talking, the wisps of spirit energy from inside the bodies of the three people began to flow outwards and lingered on the surface of their bodies. The effect was different for the three of them because the nature of their energies was different.
Yun Xue's body was slowly getting covered in a layer of frost, and Bo Qingtan was growing a layer of tree bark all over himself. On the other hand, Shi Lang was covered with sparkling streaks of lightning on his body. However, something made Sect Master Ling frown. The black clouds over Shi Lang did not seem to have any movement.
Lady Xue said, "Do not worry. They have yet to reach the final step to break into the Immortal Lord Level. They have not yet revealed their spirit weapons to the void for the heaven to act."
Sect Master Ling shook his head and said, "I know that once they reveal the final form of their spiritual weapon, heaven will test them. However, Shi Lang is not trying to condense his armor at all. Look at the lightning. It seems to revolve in and out of his body, and the flow of natural spiritual energy also indicates the same. What is he doing?"
Lei Wang asked, "Could he be perfecting his spirit weapon?"
The other two were surprised but then nodded in affirmation. There was a possibility that Shi Lang was indeed condensing a perfect spirit weapon. Suddenly, Yun Xue and Bow Qingtan revealed a Spirit Weapon above their heads. The clouds rumbled, and lightning streaks condensed.
Lady Xue said solemnly, "If they pass the tribulation, the layer of spirit energy on their body will shed and reveal the basic form of their Spirit armor."
Sect Master Ling said, "To become a Lord, the general should fight against the will of heaven."
...
The streaks of lightning fell around the Coiling Dragon Mountain, and the impact was strong. The ground around the two people was sunken in craters of various sizes. The tribulation was scary and could have sent chills down the spine of the faint-hearted.
After the clouds over their heads cleared up, the two young people stood up. They both had a shallow spirit armor visible on their bodies. Yun Xue's body seemed to be draped in a gown of ice. Her shoulders were covered with thicker layers of ice as if pauldrons. She also had two bracers on her forearms, and a big fraction enhanced her beauty.
On the other hand, Bo Qingtan had a wooden armor. However, the armor seemed to be alive and moved like cloth. The vitality it gave off was not to be overlooked. He looked like a warrior on a battlefield.
The two people sensed the changes in their bodies, and then they turned to look at Shi Lang. The terran was still covered in lightning, and his body showed no sign of changing. Lady Xue and Lei Wang approached the two of them. However, the two did not take their eyes off Shi Lang.
Lady Xue whispered, "Could it be that something has gone wrong? Given his talent, he should have finished creating a perfect weapon."
Yun Xue shook her head and said, "Sect Master, he will not fail. Just wait."
Lady Xue was shocked to see this display of confidence. She turned to look at Bo Qingtan, and Lei Wang also saw something similar. Suddenly, amidst their confusion, Shi Lang's body pressure began to climb up.
Around him, a vortex formed, sucking up all the spirit energy from the void. The three elders were shocked, and suddenly, a huge palace appeared above Shi Lang's head. The elders opened their eyes wide and saw a thin stream of water flowing down from the palace and pouring over Shi Lang.
The elders had their mouths agape. Yun Xue said, "Do not worry, we have a lake of that thing, and even if Shi Lang finishes that lake, we have a spirit gathering lotus."
The elders gazed at her with disbelief brimming from their eyes. Bo Qingtan said, "Oh yeah, that palace is called the Inheritance palace, there are inheritances of, at least, fifty immortal god level seniors."
The world view of the three elders was almost breaking, but then they saw Shi Lang revealing is spirit weaponS to the void.
