...

Staring at the lean, tall figure standing with both eyes closed, everyone was too shocked by the changes that they didn't know how to react.

However, a short moment later, Zhulong that came out from his stupor broke the silent atmosphere with his voice full of trepidation.

"This.. its a forced evolution!" Zhulong commented as he swallowed his saliva, fear could be seen reflected in his eyes.

Gulp!

"Yeah, no doubt about it.. this.. Master, this is extremely bad..!" Dilong by the side added as she turned towards her master, her face similarly turning pale.

"Eh? Why is it bad? Look at him, he turned cool and awesome! And can you feel that aura being emanated out from him? He has finally stepped into the Early stage of the Core formation realm!" Duan Li excitedly responded to Dilong.

And he didn't know why, but he got the feeling that somehow, Bulu's new evolution form has more room for it to grow in the future as well!

"Master.. this is a forced evolution that has deviated from the natural law.. I fear that.."

Just before Dilong could finish her sentence, a loud thunder exploded outside that could be heard all the way inside the cave!

BOOOMMM!!

"I-It's here.. Heaven's punishment!" she shrieked out in horror.

After realizing this, Duan Li rolled his eyes as he sighed, "Them again! How annoying!"

Dilong and Zhulong's jaws dropped.

A-Annoying?

Master, that's the Heaven's will! You can't just talk it down like that!

And what do you mean by 'again'?

Could it be that.. this is not the first time?

Crackle!

BOOOMMMM!!

A lightning strike from the Heaven bolted down to strike at the ceiling of the cave above Duan Li, which immediately vaporized it, revealing them underneath.

BOOMMM! BOOOMMM!

With the ceiling gone, they can finally see the raging dark clouds up in the sky with numerous lightnings crackling and dancing viciously within it!

"T-The size of this punishment.. it will devour us all!" Chief Zolak panicked.

The dark clouds was so colossal that its size covered the entirety of the island. It was as if the punishment that was about to descend from these clouds would annihilate the whole island along with it!

...

Heaven's Will committee..

"Empress Luo.. it's him again.." Elder Jun Xi said as he face-palmed himself in the face.

This fellow really knows how to catch the Heaven's attention!

Empress Luo remained silent, but her brows furrowed a little, showing that she was being displeased by this entire situation as well.

Why is he constantly creating troubles for himself?

Does he not fear us?

"Send down the punishments." she said casually with a wave of her hand.

"Eh? But.." Elder Jun hesitated.

"Just do it. Even though we have previous dealings with him, it was to balance karma, nothing else. We must not show any favoritism or else if we are judged by the high court, who would be able to take responsibility?" she replied sternly.

Elder Jun sighed and then nodded, "Alright.." as he reluctantly passed the orders to send down the lightnings.

I'm not worried about him, I'm just worried that.. the fellow would make use of us again!

...

BOOMMM! BOOMMM!!

"Finished.. this whole island is finished!! A punishment of this magnitude, just what kind of heinous sin did the fellow did to attract such a wrath from the Heavens?!" Dugu Liubai stared at the dark clouds with helplessness as he clutched his head with both hands and dropped to his knees, turning almost deranged.

Even with his realm, there was no way he could survive a total devastating attack from the Heavens, let alone all those under his supervision!

After all, all powers were sourced from the nine firmaments, and the Heavens could be considered the law for all things natural.

Noticing that the dust had settled down and Duan Li and the others could be seen from the opening, Dugu Liubai stared hard to see what the fellow had done.

A moment later, he stood up abruptly from his kneeling position as his jaw dropped to the ground.

"That... That is impossible! How?!"

He noticed from Bulu's Qi fluctuations that Bulu was the previous Komodo that was with Duan Li, thus how did the former changed from a monster into a humanoid figure?

There was only one answer..

Forced evolution!

To think that a mere mortal of the Core formation realm would possess the ability to break such a taboo, even for experts with formidable means, such a thing was almost impossible to do!

He dared believe that, not even those with two or three realms above him could change the nature's law as much as that!

Crackle!

The chains of lightnings dancing in the sky began to coagulate to form streaks of pure gold lightning bolts, and each were the size of a tree trunk!

They were all suspended in the sky while pointing down, ready to strike at a moment's notice.

Gulp!

"If even one of that falls to the ground, nothing can survive it!" Dugu Liubai said with absolute horror.

This was the first time he ever saw such a magnitude of lightning, not even his immortal ascension tribulation lightning was this scary!

At this moment, a figure dashed out of the cave and stood on a large boulder like a straight arrow, both hands on the waist like a parent that was about to reprimand their naughty child.

It was Duan Li!

"Heaven's Will committee! What is the meaning of this?!" he shouted out at the top of his lungs angrily.

"I demand an explanation for this farce!" he continued.

Puu!!

Farce?

Dugu Liubai choked and stumbled on himself, falling flat on his face.

"Lunatic! This fellow is a total lunatic! Crazy!" he shrieked out and cussed with all the cursing words he has in his vocabulary bank.

To bellow out towards the Heaven like that, it was confirmed by now that the other party was indeed courting death!

Just that, why did the other party has to implicate innocents like him?

"Ahh.. forgive me Grand Immortal.. I might not be able to save the Second region from being destroyed.."

...

"..." everyone in the Heaven's Will committee.

Why did it feel like we want to slap that brat in the face?

"Answer him." Empress Luo ordered as she found the situation to be amusing.

"E-Eh? Alright.." Elder Jun was shocked.

There was no precedence where the Heaven's Will has to back down after being reprimanded by a mortal like that!

Still, he did as he was told.

"Mortal human named Duan Li.. it's me again." Elder Jun said.

Duan Li was familiar with this mysterious voice.

"Ah? Elder Jun? Why are you guys causing a scene once more? What is the problem this time?" Duan Li furrowed his brows.

Puu!!

Damn it!

Elder Jun felt like he just received a critical damage to his soul with that question.

"Ahem! You have broken the natural law of forcing evolution onto monsters away from their pre-determined path.. that is a huge sin!" Elder Jun answered.

Hearing this, Duan Li shook his head.

"A huge sin? I don't believe that! Tell me, where can I get my information in the list of things that were illegal for me to do? Did you distribute books for the laws and regulations of what we can't do? Let me guess, none!" he refuted.

"..." everyone of the Heaven's Will committee.

Well, he is kinda right on that..

They looked at each other and only found everyone to shrug themselves off.

Indeed, they had not told the mortals what can be and can't be done..

In fact, the was no guide book at all!

Elder Jun gritted his teeth, 'This brat is good!'

"Even if there are no prior information for what you can't do, defying what nature has already dictated.. it should be obvious that such an act is blasphemy in itself!" Elder Jun replied sternly.

"Eh? What are you on to now! Don't give me that. So are you telling me that cultivation is wrong?" Duan Li replied with a similar tone of not backing down at all.

He was prepared to argue his way until the end this time.

"Cultivation is both right and wrong, we allow it but at the same time discourage it. That is why there are tribulations! Enough of this, confess your sins before the Heaven's Will!" Elder Jun barked out.

"Hah! You can't even answer my question properly. Let me tell you, what I did there was just helping a friend to cultivate and ascend in realm and I see nothing wrong with that! But fine, anymore talking is useless, since you want to punish, then punish me instead, I can take it!" Duan Li scoffed out with disdain.

Dugu Liubai that was hearing the exchange of conversations between Duan Li and the Heaven's Will blanked out.

He felt like he was in a sort of a dream..

The Heaven's Will responded to his inquiries? What is this? A court proceeding?

"Hmph! Fine! I don't believe that you can handle the punishment we will give out this time! Even if you possess that mysterious life saving artifact or whatever it was that protected you before, the might of the lightning bolts this time is on an entire different level! Even immortals on a higher realm would be reduced to cinders! You have been warned!"

Elder Jun cut off his words after that, finding himself to be panting heavily.

'Talking to that fellow is so infuriating!'

"Ready the lightning bolts!" he instructed the others.

Meanwhile, Duan Li stared confidently at the hundreds of lightning bolts aiming at him.

You think I am afraid?

Let them come!

The lightning bolts trembled, and with a single wave from Elder Jun, the lightning bolts struck down!
