Chapter 172 – New Ability
s life. It was too bad that he was still at the Late Stage of the Mortal Lord then and not at the Fate Dominion Realm. If he was, he wouldn't have forgotten it when he woke up from his dreams.
"Is it finally over?" Yun Cang asked with a frown as he looked at the sky.
The sun hadn't risen yet so it was still dark... however, there was no longer any trace of lightning in the sky anymore.
"It would seem so..." Yun Mingyuan said as he let out a sigh of relief.
He wouldn't admit it but what had transpired earlier during Yun Ling's ascension to the Fate Dominion Realm was something that scared the hell out of him. His tribulation to the Sacred King Realm was nothing compared to Yun Ling's tribulation. Yun Ling's tribulation was a nightmare for any cultivators. In the entire capital, no cultivator in their sane mind hoped to get a tribulation as worse as Yun Ling's tribulation! Anyone who did so must be tired of living and was courting death!
The emperor looked at Yun Wei and Yun Zhan and said, "Our work here is done. We are leaving."
Yun Zhan bowed his head at him and said, "Many thanks for your help, Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand at him and flew to the sky, heading back to the palace.
Yu Yinyi looked at Yun Zhan with a smile.
"Congratulations..."
"You should congratulate my son, not me," Yun Zhan wasn't as polite to Yu Yinyi as he was to the emperor as he said that with a roll of his eyes.
Yu Yinyi just continued to smile at him. He no longer said anything as he followed after the emperor.
"Papa!" Yun Xia yelled out as she ran towards her father's arms. She was staying at her grandfather's side the whole time and was being protected by him so she saw a good part of Yun Ling's tribulation. She was too shocked and fearful then. She had never seen a tribulation as strong as that before even back in her home.
When Yun Ling saw his daughter, his eyes went back to normal and his armor disappeared. He had a gentle look on his face as he swept his daughter off the ground and carried her in his arms.
"Papa, are you alright? You're not hurt, are you?" the little girl asked worriedly. With how worried she was about her father's well-being, she started talking normally and used 'you' instead of her usual 'Papa' every time she referred to her father.
"I am," Yun Ling said with a smile. "You should be proud of your papa. He is now a Fate Dominion Realm cultivator."
Yun Xia sighed in relief and said cheerfully, "Yun Xia is always proud of Papa no matter what!"
"Haha, good girl."
"Son..."
Yun Ling and Yun Xia turned their attention to Yun Zhan who was walking towards him accompanied by Yun Wei, Yun Cang, and the other Sacred Kings of their clan.
"Did you successfully ascend?" Yun Zhan asked. Yun Ling's spiritual energy didn't feel too different from what it was before so even though he thought that Yun Ling had indeed successfully ascended, he still asked just to make sure.
The other Sacred Kings looked at Yun Ling critically. They wanted to know just how much his spiritual energy had increased after his tribulation.
Yun Ling smiled at him and said, "I did."
Upon saying that, he released his spiritual energy which came surging out from his body with incredible force.
"Amazing..." the Sacred Kings were amazed.
The amount of Spiritual Energy that Yun Ling was releasing at that moment was comparable to theirs, Sacred Kings! He had just ascended to the Fate Dominion Realm and yet, he could already produce powerful spiritual energy like that! If they didn't know that Yun Ling was a Divine Being, they wouldn't have been able to believe it even if they were beaten to death!
Suddenly, they realized something.
If Yun Ling was already that powerful at the Fate Dominion Realm, then if he ascended into the Sacred King Realm, would there still be anyone that could pose a threat to him in the world?
...
In the distance, Yu Shan couldn't help but smile wryly as he felt the familiar spiritual energy being released in the Yun Clan.
"Damn... now that he had stepped foot into the Fate Dominion Realm, he probably could take on the two of us at the same time."
The crown prince stared at him.
"He already could," he said, remembering how they fought Yun Ling two vs one in the Golden Dragon Election.
"I mean without any difficulty!" Yu Shan added.
"Oh..."
…
Yun Yi had his eyes closed.
He was standing behind the wall in a corner since earlier, watching how Yun Ling dealt with his tribulation.
Now that Yun Ling had reached the Fate Dominion Realm, the fourth prince would have a harder time eliminating him.
