Chapter 723: Chapter 722: The Real and Fake Master of All Laws Chapter 723: Chapter 722: The Real and Fake Master of All Laws “What the hell is that?” Gu Xie doubted he had heard correctly.

How did it suddenly turn into the ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation?

Are you the semi-immortal or am I?

Plus, he had never heard of any thunder tribulation called the “ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation”!

What in the world is this ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation!

Did I miss some ancient text?

Within the ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation, Gu Xie saw the Jade Pure Heavenly Tribulation, the World Vast Thunder Tribulation, the Silent Purple Thunder Tribulation…

...

It was as if all the thunder tribulations were gathered together.

Boom.

The ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation hadn’t fully formed yet, but its mere residual power had already flattened one mountaintop after another, and several large rocks fell from the sky, landing near their feet.

Outside the Illusionary Realm, Dai Bufan’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

He had originally wanted to see how the Ancestor would conquer his Inner Demon.

The Ancestor’s Inner Demons hadn’t even appeared when the sudden lightning blinded him.

“Whose Inner Demon is this!”

Whose mortal Inner Demon is making such a commotion, the thunder tribulation I faced when ascending to the Body Integration Realm wasn’t even like this!

“That person named Gu Junye,” the River Spirit said, creating a chair out of water and sitting down with legs crossed.

He controlled all Inner Demons and knew every Inner Demon that was born.

Dai Bufan abruptly turned his head, staring at Meng Jingzhou: “You need to give an explanation.”

Meng Jingzhou wanted to drag Lu Yang into sharing the blame when he suddenly remembered Lu Yang had gone missing before the second round of trials began, thinking could it be that Lu Yang knew there would be trouble, so he ran away in advance?

“It’s normal for kids to have a wild imagination.”

“What’s the Ancestor’s Inner Demon?” Dai Bufan asked the River Spirit out of curiosity.

The River Spirit waved his hand: “He might have had Inner Demons before, but not anymore.

𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

If he didn’t team up needlessly, he could have already passed.”

…

Daoist Xiantian truly had no Inner Demons.

In the Great Yu Era, he did have them, but ever since he saw them captured at Captive Peak, his Inner Demons disappeared.

Gu Xie felt his eyelids twitch as he watched the thunder tribulation swirling above his head.

If he made a move, he would certainly expose his identity, but if he didn’t, he would be struck to death by lightning and fail.

Why did I ever think joining a team with you three was a good idea?

Daoist Xiantian had never seen such a huge commotion from a thunder tribulation in his life.

He muttered in admiration, “Truly worthy of the Master of All Laws, even his Inner Demon is this strong.”

Gu Xie looked more bewildered than when he faced the thunder tribulation: “Who is the Master of All Laws?”

Daoist Xiantian pointed at Gu Junye: “Him, he is the reincarnation of the Master of All Laws.”

Gu Xie froze.

If he is the Master of All Laws, then who am I?

Soon Gu Xie realized, Gu Junye was an imposter.

Ignorant of death!

Wait, that’s not right.

Everyone only knows that the Master of All Laws is at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, not knowing that he’s already a semi-immortal, and it’s impossible for someone at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage to face the ascension tribulation!

How did Gu Junye know that I am a semi-immortal?

He nonchalantly asked Gu Junye, “How did you know that the Master of All Laws is a semi-immortal, I haven’t heard anything about this?”

Gu Junye turned his head, his eyes reflecting loneliness, as if recalling a past life: “What semi-immortal?

Of course, the Master of All Laws is at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.”

“How could someone at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage possibly pass the ascension tribulation!” Gu Xie was furious, feeling he had been fooled.

A mocking smile appeared on Gu Junye’s lips as he said meaningfully, “To ascend is to ascend, if it’s not achieved, it isn’t.

Where does the term semi-immortal come from?”

“It’s nothing but the ramblings of the world.”

Gu Xie wanted to retort, but upon further thought, he found Gu Junye’s words quite logical.

Gu Junye stopped paying attention to Gu Xie, as he actually didn’t know about the realm of a semi-immortal; his response to Gu Xie had been purely improvisational.

He looked up at the fully formed ninety-nine ascendancy tribulation and said calmly, “No matter, since the trouble started with me, I shall be the one to end it.”

In front of the stunned gazes of the three, Gu Junye slowly ascended, confronting the thunder tribulation head-on!

Bathed in the onslaught of the thunder tribulation, Gu Junye stood unmoved, as if the image of a figure from an ageless past emerged in that moment, eternal as time itself!

At that moment, Gu Xie felt the person before him was the true Master of All Laws, and he himself was the counterfeit.

The next moment, both Gu Xie and the Vast Sea Daoist Lord realized that Gu Junye was undoubtedly a mortal.

The reason he could fly up to face the thunder tribulation without harm, no matter how it struck him, was because this was the Illusionary Realm!

“`

Inner Demons are a figment of imagination, and so is one’s own strength!

With this realization, both of them felt greatly reassured.

It would be good if strength could rely solely on imagination.

Vast Sea Daoist Lord saw this as a perfect opportunity to see what his Inner Demon was.

If he didn’t open his heart, River Spirit wouldn’t be able to draw out his Inner Demon.

In an instant, Gu Xie and Vast Sea Daoist Lord’s strength surged, imagining themselves in the Transcendence Tribulation Stage, fighting side by side with Gu Junye against the Thunder Tribulation.

Daoist Xiantian, lacking in imagination, could only watch helplessly from below.

The three joined forces to resist the Thunder Tribulation.

“How can this Thunder Tribulation be so powerful?” Having experienced it firsthand, Gu Xie had an ominous feeling, realizing that the tribulation was even more ferocious than it appeared.

…

On the other side, Zhou Xing’er also fell into the clutches of an Inner Demon, being scolded by her mother.

“I gave birth to you and raised you all these years.

Find a good family to marry into later.

You could even earn some Spirit Stones for your brother’s cultivation!”

Zhou Xing’er meekly complied, without uttering a word.

…

Thunderbolts fell, containing endless power, as if to restart the heavens and earth, to recreate the world.

“This is the Jade Pure Heavenly Tribulation.” Gu Junye explained, having seen the description of the Jade Pure Heavenly Tribulation in ancient books sold at street stalls.

Gu Xie was so battered his mouth smoked; far from being able to eliminate the three of them, he was lucky to survive himself.

Vast Sea Daoist Lord, truly possessing a Thunder Spiritual Root, had his own method of dealing with the Thunder Tribulation, faring slightly better than Gu Xie.

Gu Junye had imagined resisting the Thunder Tribulation countless times.

Except for the eighty-first bolt, he could survive them all.

…

“What kind of Dual Spirit Roots do you have?

That’s perfect.

Transplant your Spirit Roots to your brother and let him cultivate.

His talent for cultivation must be higher than yours!”

Zhou Xing’er continued to be dictated to by her mother, who wore a belligerent expression and spittle flew as she spoke.

Zhou Xing’er just hung her head, not daring to retort.

…

“This is the Obliteration Purple Thunder Tribulation!”

The purple heavenly thunder descended, blasting through space, annihilating everything, leaving the three struggling at death’s door.

Gu Xie was charred all over, Vast Sea Daoist Lord and Gu Junye didn’t fare much better; the eighty bolts of the tribulation left not a single good piece of flesh on them.

Gu Xie glared at Gu Junye with hatred â€“ once I conquer Seek Dao Sect, you will be the first to die!

Crackâ€”

The Eighty-first Thunderbolt descended.

The three resisted staunchly and finally made it through.

With a splash, all three landed simultaneously, crashing into a pit, hanging by a thread.

…

“Are you saying that a Semi-Immortal infiltrated the entrance examination?” Eldest Senior Sister’s eyelid twitched upon hearing Lu Yang’s report.

“Yes, his name is Gu Xie, but his real name is not known.”

Before Lu Yang could say more, he was interrupted by Eldest Senior Sister raising her hand.

“Junior Brother, wait a minute.

I feel someone is using me as their Inner Demon.

I’ll go have a look.”

…

“It’s finally over.” Gu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, which had been a long time coming.

He was worried that if the tribulation continued, he might not be able to resist using the Dao Fruit Outline.

The Dao Fruit Outline was definitely not something conjured by a mortal’s imagination.

Once used, it would reveal everything.

Gu Xie cut himself off from River Spirit’s probing.

To River Spirit, it appeared Gu Xie had no Inner Demons.

It had to be over now.

But before Gu Xie could even catch his breath, he felt an immense pressure from the sky, even more daunting than the earlier Ninety-Nine Ascension Tribulation.

Looking up, he saw a female cultivator levitating, her back to the sun, her features indistinct, as if she were divine.

The Inner Demon of Vast Sea Daoist Lordâ€”Yun Zhi.
