Mountains and rivers?
Hearing Ai Yinghao call out this name, Su Zhao and the others were greatly shocked.
Because it was related to this "Sword Illusion Paradise", although they had never personally seen what had happened in the Hunyuan Sect fifty years ago, they had all heard of it.
At that time, even the Hunyuan Sect Master had died at the hands of the mountains and rivers.
After so many years, he had thought that the mountains and rivers had long since left the "Sword Illusion Paradise" through the spatial rift. Unexpectedly, after fifty years, he had returned to the Broken Sword Peak.
It was unknown where the woman who appeared with him came from, but the black-robed man looked extremely similar to the guy who caused havoc in the Hunyuan Sect a few years ago. It seemed that the sect master had made a mistake back then, and the black-robed man was the main culprit. The one killed by Ai Yinghao was probably just his substitute.
They actually appeared at the same time. Why?
Before Su Zhao and the others could figure out what was going on, the violent fluctuations in the air began to spread crazily towards the sky.
"This is bad!"
Su Zhao seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed, "The Heavenly Road is about to appear, this person's heavenly tribulation is about to descend, let's quickly leave, in case we get caught in the crossfire!"
Before he finished speaking, Su Zhao had already shot off into the distance like lightning.
"Heavenly tribulation?"
The other Ling Xiao Sword Sect Elders also seemed to have awoken from a dream and retreated.
Ai Yinghao's face was filled with astonishment. Back then, when he entered the "Sword Illusion Paradise", Ai Yinghao was only at the Void Transformation Stage. Now that he had come out, he was able to cause the Heavenly Road to descend?
Catching Tang Huan's gaze, Ai Yinghao regained his senses. Suppressing the shock in his chest, he quickly chased after Su Zhao and the others.
"Little guy, little girl, you guys should leave this place as well." Shanhe raised his head and said in a deep voice.
"Great-grandfather Gao, be careful." Tang Huan could not help but exhort.
"Little fellow, don't worry. This old man doesn't care about a mere heavenly tribulation!"
Shanhe laughed out loud with confidence, his heroic spirit soaring to the heavens.
When he was inside the cave, he was worried that the appearance of the Heavenly Road would cause even more damage to that space. Thus, he had been suppressing his own strength the entire time, trying his best to delay the descent of the Heavenly Road. Now that he had returned to the Forging God Great World, he no longer had any worries.
"Go!"
The energy of heaven and earth in this area fluctuated even more intensely, and Shan Shan was already unable to endure it any longer. Tang Huan did not hesitate any longer, he grabbed her waist and shot into the distance. In a short moment, he had already arrived at the edge of the peak, but he did not stop at all, and stepped into the void with a single step.
"Ga ji!"
The nine spirits spread their wings, and their bodies that were covered by the death aura expanded rapidly, instantly appearing under Tang Huan and Shan Shan's bodies, carrying the two of them as they flew away.
When they were about a few thousand meters away from the peak of the mountain, the nine spirits had already stopped and turned around to look. On the peak of the mountain, the fluctuations around the mountains and rivers could already be seen with the naked eye. The energy of heaven and earth in that area had already completely boiled, like a wave being stirred up by a hurricane, crazily churning.
"Boom!"
After a split-second, a white-colored odor poured down like a waterfall from the boundless sky. In an instant, it had already reached the peak of the mountain, enveloping the mountains and rivers within.
It was actually a huge passageway that was shaped like a pillar. It was connected to the heaven and earth, and was completely condensed from the energy of heaven and earth.
As soon as the passageway appeared, a majestic, vast, and imposing aura spread out between heaven and earth, causing people to want to prostrate themselves in worship. It was difficult for them to resist in the slightest.
"This is the 'Heavenly Road'!"
Tang Huan's mind moved slightly.
This was the first time Tang Huan had personally seen the "Heavenly Road". However, in the memories of Mei Xun, Xia Lu and the others, he had already seen the Heavenly Road many times.
On the Heavenly Road, the boundless energy of heaven and earth would transform into different heavenly tribulations according to the different characteristics of the energy in each cultivator's body.
Under normal circumstances, there were a total of three stages of heavenly tribulation, each more dangerous than the last. After three stages, one could follow the Heavenly Road's passageway and reach the Heaven Realm above the tens of thousands of great worlds.
Gao Zu Shan He was a Weapon Refiner, so his heavenly tribulation should be the fire tribulation of the "Five Elements heavenly tribulation"!
"Boom!"
Almost at the same time that this thought flashed through Tang Huan's mind, a loud sound suddenly exploded out, and the entire world seemed to tremble fiercely. Immediately after, Tang Huan discovered that the top of the Heavenly Road had actually become as red as fire, and was rapidly spreading along the passageway at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
From afar, it was as if a fiery red torrent was pouring down from the sky. In less than a breath of time, it had already clearly appeared in front of his eyes.
It was actually a huge flame that rumbled down towards the peak of the mountain, as if it could smash any obstacle below into smithereens. Although the Heavenly Road's passageway had already isolated the ball of flame and did not emit the slightest bit of heat, its monstrous might was enough to cause one's heart to palpitate.
"Tang Huan, Ancestor Gao, he …"
Shan Shan's beautiful face tensed up as she said with some trepidation. Before she could finish speaking, an incomparably resplendent blade light roared up from the bottom of the passageway.
In an instant, the ball of flames had already been minced into pieces.
But in the blink of an eye, the second ball of captivating red eye protection smashed down. On the peak of the mountain, the long blade in Shanhe's hand danced, and another dazzling fiery red blade light rose up.
When the second ball of flame was shattered by the blade light, the third ball of flame followed closely behind, followed by the fourth ball of flame, the fifth ball of flame … The tenth ball of flame … The twentieth ball of flame …
"Boom —"
Loud sounds rose and fell one after another.
One slash after another, in just a few short breaths of time, thirty-six Pang Shuo's flames had already vanished into thin air under his blade.
These thirty-six balls of flames were the first level of the fire tribulation.
Seeing that, Tang Huan and Shan Shan, who were originally a little nervous, subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that with Gao Zu's strength, passing through the heavenly tribulation shouldn't be difficult.
"This mountain and river is actually this powerful?"
Thousands of meters away, Su Zhao, who was floating in the air, couldn't help but exclaim out loud. The few Void Transformation Stage experts beside him also had astonished expressions on their faces.
Heavenly tribulation was not something that could be easily passed.
From ancient times until now, even the first level of heavenly tribulation had caused countless Void Transformation Stage cultivators to turn into ashes and die on the spot. Generally speaking, any cultivator at the peak of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower would prepare pills, powerful weapons, protective equipment, and other items before the heavenly tribulation descended, in order to be completely safe.
However, that mountain and river actually treated the heavenly tribulation as if it was nothing. With just the blade in his hand, he easily endured the first stage.
"He actually passed through the first stage of the three fire tribulations so easily."
A green-robed old man couldn't help but sigh softly. There was envy between his brows.
The more relaxed one was under the heavenly tribulation, the stronger one would be. That kind of powerful strength was not something that every cultivator at the peak of the Void Transformation Stage could possess. When facing the heavenly tribulation, the vast majority of people would tremble with fear and be cautious, afraid that something would go wrong.
"It's a pity that the sect master and the few great elders are not here."
