Noah and the rebels had decided to use the metal palace for the fusion even if they knew that a Heaven Tribulation would arrive.

They didn't know how Skully would wake up, so they preferred to use the palace for its defensive properties. They could always bait the hybrid outside if it awakened in a violent state.

Noah, Carl, and the other peak rank 5 experts that had remained inside the palace during the fusion exchanged a glance before their auras spread outward.

The dense pressure originating from Skully's room pressed on their minds, but it didn't focus on them. It was an innate act of a powerful creature in a confused state trying to become aware of its surroundings.

The cultivators' auras made it concentrate on them and press on their minds with even more intensity. Noah and the others struggled under that pressure, but they promptly retreated to escape from its range.
