*Rumble!~~~*
"…!?"
In the midst of an otherwise serene sky in the midst of daylight, a dramatic transformation unfolded as the skies turned dark quickly.
Dark clouds gathered and converged like an ominous congregation, their edges swirling with a ridiculous amount of energy that caused the heaven and earth energy beneath it to become rattled. An overbearing aura also spread across the volcanic region below, causing many lifeforms in it to turn shocked and even the flora to look the other way, not wanting to get caught up in it.
As the darkness grew wider, flashes of light illuminated the region as tendrils of lightning began to dance within the heart of the storm clouds. These electric veins of light stretched and twisted, each bolt flickering and fracturing into an intricate web of luminescence that momentarily turned the darkness into day.
However, such illumination only increased the dread within the lifeforms present, causing most of them to run away.
Indeed, the Feral Beasts didn't stay at all once they saw the heavenly tribulation appear.
The intense gathering of the storm and the distant rumbling of thunder caused their deep and primal fears to awaken as they fled the region. However, if those who knew danger existed, then those who knew treasures among danger also existed.
"What- what is that?"
"A heavenly tribulation of unknown nature. Could there be a chance that a heavenly resource is about to be birthed or turn mature?"
"Let's go see."
A few factions who were nearby in the surrounding few hundred thousand kilometers sensed the heavenly tribulation's aura and decided to go see what it could be. Their attention was fully grasped.
Naturally, Lea and the others who were outside were informed by Davis's soul body, so they knew what was going on. Moreover, they were also on guard against any intruders, having formed a perimeter already on the eastern side of the volcanic region where they were situated.
"What's going on…?"
Then there were also clueless people whom Davis didn't bother to explain to, such as Niel Bladeheart and the other groups mingling with him. Fairy Thunderblaze came nearer and creased her brows, turning to look at Davis as she wondered if he was doing it now.
Otherwise, she had no clue what was happening.
Myria had also returned towards their camp, looking at the thundering tribulation clouds with her eyes squinted.
'What did he do now…?'
She was uninformed of the situation as she had just returned after noticing the heavenly tribulation aura erupting all over the region. Regardless, as she noticed the overbearing aura of the heavens, she discovered that this was a Destructive Heavenly Tribulation. However, it was much more different as she saw the dark crimson clouds emerge from the skies as they created a swirling storm amidst the dark clouds of the heavenly tribulation.
"A Destructive Heavenly Tribulation that is a punishment…?"
Both Myria and Fairy Thunderblaze spoke out at the same time, the latter's lips curling as she knew heavenly flames were going to spill like raging tears from the heavens.
*RUMBLE!~~~*
But suddenly, their expressions changed as a loud and enraged boom thundered across the region.
The destructive lightning swimming in the dark clouds turned brighter, shining red as they turned into wrathful serpents weaving and spiraling underneath the center. At the same time, the dark crimson clouds also morphed into a crimson-gold sanctimonious cloud tsunami that practically covered the entire volcanic region and even further beyond.
A low growl kept rumbling from the skies, causing the people in the volcanic region to feel threatened.
Even the willful and firm sword cultivators like Niel Bladeheart and Garoe Rynn felt their hearts churn with anxiety, their minds churning with a fight or flight response.
"Leave!"
Myria commanded, causing the ones who were unsure to scatter. They retreated, not wanting to be underneath the annihilative aura as they were afraid that karmic burden would sink into them. Their fears were not unfounded, so Myria allowed them to leave.
However, she saw quite a few stayed.
Davis's women stayed, which displayed their determination, and she couldn't help approvingly look at them. However, she couldn't understand why a few others would stay.
Regardless, she quickly turned to look at Davis, who was in the distance while blankly staring at the skies.
"Why…?"
Davis's lips were parted as he sounded out with disbelief.
According to his calculations, this was not supposed to be an Annihilative Heavenly Tribulation that was reserved for Anarchic Divergents. Utmost, he felt that Epsila would receive destructive heavenly flames, which he could use to fool Fairy Thunderblaze and send her away, telling her that he could only obtain this and she would have to accept it.
Whether that would go smoothly or not was unknown to him, but he definitely didn't expect Epsila's tribulation to invite a calamity on the level of an Anarchic Divergent!
A Pill Tribulation that an Ascended-Tier Pill would draw would have three heavenly lightning strikes.
A Heavenly Pill Tribulation that a Spirit-Tier Pill would invite would have nine lightning strikes.
However, he had used Karmicgrace back then to allow the Perfect-Tier Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill to step into the Spirit-Tier. Perhaps the reason why it managed to enter Spirit-Tier was unknown to the heavens, so it had brought forth a Destructive Heavenly Tribulation that sought to destroy the birth of Epsila's consciousness.
Now, he had used Karmicblight to allow Dalila to concoct a Spirit-Tier Soulforge Elevation Resonance Pill, so by all means, it ought to have produced three destructive heavenly flame strikes and nine destructive heavenly lightning strikes!
After all, even an Earth-Tier Spirit like Nightveil only bathed in three heavenly flame strikes and nine heavenly lightning strikes when she went through her Immortal Tribulation.
However, the heavenly tribulation for Epsila right now had changed from a Destructive Heavenly Pill Tribulation to an Annihilative Heavenly Pill Tribulation, which was ridiculous by his calculations.
Was this because Epsila had already encountered her heavenly tribulation once that she was forced to undergo a tribulation like this, or is it because she was his creation!?
Davis couldn't tell, and neither could Myria as she was equally clueless, but it was true that an Annihilative Heavenly Pill Tribulation, so it was of utmost emergency that they do something.
Thinking about Dalila and Tina, Davis's gaze shook as he subconsciously took a step forward.
"Stop!"
Myria traversed a few kilometers in an instant as she practically teleported through space, her palm falling on Davis's shoulders as she cast a huge mountainous weight on him. Earth Laws weighed on Davis, causing him to turn to look at her with a disgruntled expression.
"You're going to just make it worse if you step in."
She remained firm, causing his expression to churn as he almost felt powerless.
