Reversing life and death, defying the rules of heaven and earth, naturally invites divine punishment!
The cycle of life and death follows the will of heaven, and those who disrupt it will inevitably be punished by the heavens.
Terrible lightning struck, causing the female supreme to stumble and nearly fall to the ground.
Immediately after, countless bolts of lightning descended, determined to obliterate the female supreme into ashes.
Gazing at the sky filled with thunder, the female supreme's face turned ashen. She felt that she might not survive the divine punishment, that she would be struck into oblivion, her soul scattered into dust, never to recover.
"Hahaha, what's the point of saving her, only for her to be struck down again, turned to ash by the heavenly punishment, her very soul pulverized, never to be reborn."
Ming E couldn't help but mock again. Since he had already thoroughly offended Ji Mo, like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, he no longer held back.
He desperately wanted to see Ji Mo's despair as he watched the female supreme, whom he had painstakingly saved, die before his very eyes.
There was nothing more painful in the world than regaining something only to lose it again, and it would surely torment Ji Mo to no end.
"Noisy. I'll send you to eternal damnation first, with your lineage wiped out."
Lu Wukai raised his leg and delivered a kick to Ming E's groin, followed by a barrage of punches and kicks.
Ghost Fire and the Old Demon also joined in, beating Ming E and beginning to absorb his vital essence.
Ji Mo lunged forward, spreading his arms wide, and embraced the female supreme, shielding her beneath him, using his own flesh and blood to block the heavenly punishment.
Electric snakes writhed, lightning intertwined, and the terrifying thunder instantly engulfed him.
Nestled in Ji Mo's arms, the female supreme listened to his heartbeat and felt his warmth, a profound sense of security washing over her.
She could clearly feel that as long as she was in Ji Mo's embrace, she had nothing to fear, even if the heavens and earth were to collapse.
Her heart fluttered like a startled deer, and she couldn't help but pout, wondering if she should steal a kiss from Ji Mo.
The heavenly punishment came swiftly and departed just as quickly.
The main reason was that it couldn't even budge Ji Mo; it was like a tickle, so it retreated in shame, lest it make a fool of itself.
Ji Mo felt the heavenly punishment dissipate and the lightning fade, letting out a heavy sigh of relief. He looked down to see the female supreme in his arms, her beautiful eyes half-closed, her lips, like cherry blossom petals, slightly pursed, exuding an irresistible charm.
"Kiss her, kiss her..."
Lu Wukai's eyes widened as he shouted loudly from the side.
He felt his brother Ji was too shy and wondered what he was hesitating for; he should just kiss her forcefully.
Ji Mo was just about to kiss her when Lu Wukai's shout made him feel a little embarrassed.
The main reason was that even Ghost Fire and the Old Demon were staring intently, their eyes wide as copper bells, their faces filled with anticipation to witness the kiss.
Ji Mo, the simpleton, was thin-skinned and wouldn't dare to act rashly.
The female supreme glared at the three who were ruining her moment. With a wave of her delicate hand, her oil-paper umbrella floated over, blocking their view.
She held the oil-paper umbrella with her left hand, caressed Ji Mo's cheek with her right, and then, gritting her teeth, prepared to kiss him.
*Boom!*
The sound of thunder echoed again, disrupting their intimate moment.
Ji Mo was a little angry, cursing in his heart, "System, you're messing with me again."
However, the system was also provoked, responding, "You can't kiss her and you blame me? If a girl wants to kiss you in the future, you must take the initiative, or I'll strike you dead!"
The system's words indicated that it was still not involved in the matter.
Ji Mo was stunned. The system was too wicked. He wasn't a casual man; how could he just kiss someone so readily?
At this moment.
The female supreme's entire body erupted with immortal radiance, her form becoming light and ethereal as she floated upwards uncontrollably.
"She's ascending!"
Ghost Fire exclaimed, as this was not the female supreme's voluntary ascension, but a forced one.
This situation indicated that the female supreme's current realm far surpassed the standard for becoming an immortal, and the will of this world was eagerly expelling her.
The female supreme looked at Ji Mo pitifully. She had many words she hadn't had time to say to this little troublemaker.
What she regretted most was failing to kiss Ji Mo twice, which made her feel incredibly unwilling.
But she couldn't stop; her body, out of her control, floated upwards towards the sky.
Above the firmament, clouds and winds churned once more.
The lightning tribulation began to condense, preparing to test the female supreme.
"Ji Mo, you wait for me. I'll find a way to descend and look for you in a while. You still haven't finished painting my umbrella."
The female supreme had a thousand words in her heart, but she ultimately found a reason to bid Ji Mo farewell.
Ji Mo waved to her, "Yes, I'll wait for you."
The female supreme watched Ji Mo drift further and further away, feeling reluctant. She didn't know when they would meet again. She couldn't help but say, "Wait for me, next time, I will definitely kiss you."
"Ah, what did you say? I can't hear you."
The thunder roared in the sky, and Ji Mo couldn't hear the female supreme's words.
"I want to kiss you, kiss you hard."
The female supreme shouted, her voice echoing through heaven and earth.
Ji Mo was stunned, then his lips curved upwards, and he let out a foolish laugh.
*Boom!*
A bolt of purple Nine Heavens Divine Lightning, as thick as a water vat, struck Ji Mo's head without warning.
His entire body went numb, black smoke billowed from his nose and mouth, and he questioned, "System, why did you strike me?"
The system snorted, "What did I just say?"
"If a girl wants to kiss me, I must take the initiative, or I'll be struck?"
Ji Mo thought the system was just speaking casually and didn't expect it to be serious. He cried out in injustice, "The girl has already flown to the heavens, how can I kiss her? You're clearly taking this opportunity to retaliate."
The system no longer responded. Several more bolts of Nine Heavens Divine Lightning struck Ji Mo, making him jump and gasp in pain.
This was clearly a demonstration through action that it was indeed retaliating, and what could he do about it?
Above the firmament, clouds churned, and lightning flashed.
Electric light surged like a tide, blindingly brilliant, engulfing the female supreme.
This was the Immortal Ascension Tribulation, extremely perilous, and if not handled properly, one could easily be reduced to ashes.
The female supreme's expression was solemn. Even though she had great confidence in herself, she still felt uneasy and had to give it her all.
However, the incoming lightning couldn't even get close to her.
The oil-paper umbrella radiated a brilliant immortal glow, emitting a strong halo that protected the female supreme.
The originally perilous immortal tribulation did not pose the slightest threat to the female supreme.
The female supreme, unharmed, stepped onto the heavenly path, her body cleansed by countless immortal energies, walking step by step towards the immortal gate.
She cast a reluctant glance at Ji Mo, entered the immortal gate, and successfully ascended.
"Becoming an immortal, so simple!"
Many powerful cultivators at the peak of the Mortal Immortal Realm ninth level witnessed this scene and made a misjudgment, believing that the immortal tribulation was nothing more than this.
They eagerly wanted to try.
The first to couldn't resist was the ancestor of Ten Lakes Village, Wu Ji.
Ten Lakes Village had betrayed the Xuan Ling Realm and defected to the Ghost Realm, believing they could latch onto the Ghost Clan's power and prosper.
However, things did not go as planned, and they had backed the wrong horse.
The Ghost Clan had been defeated, and it was inevitable that they would be held accountable as traitors. Their only hope now was to ascend to immortality.
Wu Ji unleashed his peak aura without reservation, charging towards the sky, stepping onto the heavenly path, and actively triggering the immortal tribulation.
"I am Wu Ji of Ten Lakes Village, and I will be the second strong cultivator in ten thousand years to achieve immortality in the Xuan Ling Realm..."
He was full of spirit and proudly announced his identity to the entire world, believing he would be recorded in history and remembered for eternity.
However, before he could finish his words.
The tide of lightning surged, piercing heaven and earth, engulfing him.
Wu Ji couldn't even last a single breath before letting out a piercing scream, his flesh and blood mangled, as he plummeted from the sky.
The lightning followed closely, one after another, striking his flesh, bones, and everything else into pieces.
Ultimately, Wu Ji turned into tribulation ash, leaving nothing behind.
