In the mountains, Ling Han and the Empress were very far from each other as they prepared to greet the coming of the heavenly tribulation.
Thankfully, the Natural Peach Seals had taken effect, and concealed their destiny so that the violence of the heavenly tribulation suddenly declined to a weaker level. Though it had still far surpassed the heavenly tribulation for a normal fourth severance, and was in fact close to the heavenly tribulation for the Dividing Soul Tier, this was already within the capacity of tolerance for the both of them.
Though neither Ling Han nor the Empress were officially at the fifth severance, their strength was already close to Yang soul Tier.
Crack!
A sudden clap of thunder rang out, and hundreds of thousands meters long thunderbolts crashed down as if they intended to rip apart the heaven and earth itself.
