Chapter 2653 The Origin Was Guessed
Normally, the celestial phenomena caused by a half-step Void Refinement cultivator breaking through his realm here wouldn't cause much of a stir, but it's different when 105 half-step Void Refinement cultivators undergo tribulation at the same time.
One hundred and five clusters of heavenly tribulation clouds shrouded the entire sky, rolling and spreading, with terrifying lightning laws converging towards this area.
The majestic power of the spirit realm also converged on this side at this moment.
At the same time, the spiritual energy in this area is fluctuating wildly, and the range of influence of this fluctuation is becoming wider and wider.
At this moment, in the place where the ascended cultivators were hiding, the great battle had subsided, the valley had been reduced to ruins, and the world was filled with violent fluctuations of laws and spiritual energy.
Dozens of enormous flying ships hovered in the sky, most of them bearing spiked pillars, each laden with ascended cultivators and their descendants.
Regardless of age or gender, they were all nailed to the stake.
The torture pillars are not just ordinary instruments of torture. The cultivators who are hung on them have to endure intense pain and face torment every moment.
They struggled frantically on the torture pillar, blood flowing down it, and every cultivator's face showed a pained expression, looking extremely miserable.
However, the more miserable they were, the more smug Prince Ning became. He had a lifelong love for torturing other living beings, and the current scene satisfied his perverse desires.
"Damn Ning, you'll die a horrible death!"
"My ascension to the human race will never end, and you will pay the price!"
"If you have the guts, then kill us. I hope you won't give us the chance, or you will definitely pay the price!"
"The Azure Heaven Immortal Kingdom will surely perish!"
"Even as a ghost, I will never let you go!"
"Kill...I'm going to kill you all..."
"Spare me...please spare me, sir...I'll do anything you ask if you'll spare me..."
"I am only at the Golden Core stage and pose no threat to you whatsoever. Why are you treating us like this?"
"My parents are ascended cultivators, but I was born in the Spirit Realm and am considered a native cultivator of the Spirit Realm. You shouldn't treat me like this. Please, sir, let me go. I'm willing to fight against ascended cultivators with you!"
"My lord, I also know the hiding places of other ascended cultivators. If you are willing to spare my life, I am willing to write down their hiding places."
……
Countless cultivators were nailed to the execution pillars, some with eyes filled with hatred and emanating a strong killing intent.
Some people kept begging for mercy, wanting Prince Ning to spare their lives. Prince Ning sat on his throne, holding a delicious spiritual liquid in his hand, with a beautiful female cultivator dressed in revealing clothes on his left arm, enjoying the view of the execution pillar.
"Go and find out the whereabouts of the other ascended cultivators from that person," Prince Ning said calmly.
“Yes, sir!” A late-stage Void Refinement cultivator in armor immediately accepted the order.
Just as Prince Ning was bringing the wine cup to his lips, he suddenly paused, his gaze abruptly shifting to the distant horizon, his expression subtly changing.
“The spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the power of the laws are all fluctuating, and there is also the gathering of heavenly might. Is someone undergoing tribulation?” A sharp light flashed in Prince Ning’s eyes.
Suddenly, his powerful divine sense spread out in all directions. With his early stage of the Integration Realm, his divine sense could probe a very wide range.
However, even when he probed to the limit with his divine sense, he found no results.
Then, Prince Ning waved his right hand, and an ancient mirror appeared in front of him. This ancient mirror was covered with mysterious spiritual patterns, and a strange single eye was embedded in the back.
A powerful aura emanated from the ancient mirror, revealing it to be a seventh-tier, second-grade spiritual artifact.
Prince Ning raised his hand and unleashed a burst of magical power towards the ancient mirror. The next moment, the ancient mirror shone brightly, and a strange eye appeared on its front.
A strange gaze shot out from the eye, disappearing directly into the void. Meanwhile, a beam of light shot out from the single eye on the back of the ancient mirror, forming a light curtain in the air.
The scene shown on the light screen was the path that gaze had traversed.
Suddenly, a scene of rolling dark clouds appeared on the screen. Prince Ning's gaze was immediately drawn to the dark clouds in the sky, and he naturally recognized them at a glance as heavenly tribulation thunderclouds.
However, he had never seen this kind of tribulation thundercloud before, because this tribulation thundercloud was formed by the convergence of 105 tribulation thunderclouds.
Each of the tribulation clouds was a separate entity, which looked quite peculiar.
Perhaps because of the distance, the image presented by the ancient mirror was somewhat blurry. However, even so, Prince Ning still judged that it was the tribulation of a half-step Void Refinement cultivator advancing to the Void Refinement stage.
"Could it be that there are more than a hundred cultivators at the half-step Void Refinement Realm breaking through their realms together over there?" A thought arose in Prince Ning's mind.
"How is this possible?" Prince Ning once again channeled his magic power into the ancient mirror, and in an instant, the mirror was pushed to its limit, and the blurry image gradually became clear.
Prince Ning finally got a clear look at the general scene of that tribulation sky. He could clearly see that the sky was covered by one hundred and five tribulation thunderclouds.
Beneath each of the tribulation clouds, a cultivator at the half-step Void Refinement Realm was undergoing tribulation, and these cultivators were all wearing peculiar spiritual armor.
puff!
Just as they were getting a clear look at the scene in the distance, a sound came from the ancient mirror, and the image on the mirror disappeared the next moment.
A glint flashed in Prince Ning's eyes, and suddenly a thought struck him, and he immediately realized a possibility.
"Zuo Chen, what kind of situation do you think would lead to hundreds of cultivators at the half-step Void Refinement Realm undergoing tribulation at the same time?"
“Reporting to Prince Ning, before the ascension passage to the lower realm was severed, there was a scene where hundreds of cultivators at the half-step Void Refinement stage were undergoing tribulation at the same time.” A cultivator named Zuo Chen standing on the right slowly spoke.
"However, since the ascension passage to the lower realm was severed, such a situation has never occurred again."
"Is it possible that these people are ascendants who came from the lower realm?" A sharp glint flashed in Prince Ning's eyes.
Zuo Chen frowned and said, "But wasn't the ascension passage to the lower realm already cut off?"
"Heh, who knows if there are any hidden ascension passages that still exist?"
“The hundreds of cultivators at the half-step Void Refinement Realm are dressed the same, so they must come from the same force. If they were from the Spirit Realm, they would never undergo tribulation here, as the spiritual energy here is too thin.”
"So they are very likely ascended cultivators."
Prince Ning deduced the identities of Huang Xing and the other ascendants who were undergoing tribulation through various clues.
Upon hearing this, Zuo Chen's eyes flashed, and he also felt that what Prince Ning said made a lot of sense. These cultivators who were undergoing tribulation were likely to be ascendants.
"Excellent, what a pleasant surprise! Let's go, there are still plenty of spots on the execution pillar." With a command from Prince Ning, the army immediately flew towards the area where the tribulation was taking place.
