While the three were chatting, a door opened in the spiritual space. The woman, dressed in a white gown with golden threads running through the bells tied to her wrist, had an indifferent expression.

"Eldest Senior Sister, why have you come?" Lu Yang exclaimed with joy upon seeing the Eldest Senior Sister.

"I’ve been watching from the outside world and saw you were stuck in your Heart Demon Tribulation, so I came to check on you."

"Looking at you now, it seems you’ve encountered some trouble?"

The Eldest Senior Sister turned her gaze toward the only stranger present.

"Who are you?"

Ying Tian Immortal felt as if facing a formidable enemy, for it was his first encounter with an existence whose aura was stronger than his own.

Ying Tian Immortal’s aura suddenly changed, becoming unfathomably deep, carrying the thick essence of history, as if he had crossed through the long river of time and the endless dust of the mortal world to arrive here.

He vibrated his arms, and his wide sleeves enfolded his forearms as he clasped them behind his back, staring directly into Yun Zhi’s eyes.

"My name is Ying Tian Immortal. I have seen Daoist Yun Zhi during the Heavenly Tribulation."

"So it turns out to be a remnant thought of Ying Tian Immortal, one of the Five Ancient Immortals, hidden within the Heavenly Tribulation. Indeed, your methods have their merits."

Ying Tian Immortal was startled. Truly a master, she had pinpointed his origin on first meeting, hinting that he was merely a remnant thought with no right to sit on equal footing with her, suggesting that his true self should come instead.

"Daoist has praised me too highly. However, I did not expect that the future generations would produce such an exceptional figure as you. The younger generation truly inspires awe."

A sneer pulled at the corner of Ying Tian Immortal’s heart. He intentionally emphasized that Yun Zhi was from a later generation, gaining the upper hand in terms of seniority, waiting to see how she would respond!

"Talent is negligible," said Yun Zhi, his tone nonchalant as if discussing a trivial matter.

Ying Tian Immortal: "..."

How am I to respond to this?

But he didn’t have to consider this problem for long.

Under the watchful eyes of Lu Yang and the others, Ying Tian Immortal’s form gradually faded, becoming so translucent that the objects behind him could be seen.

"Ying Tian, is this remnant thought of yours about to exhaust itself?"

Since he was about to disappear, there was no need to put on airs.

Ying Tian Immortal brought his two fingers together, pressed them against his temple, flicked them outwards, and said with a hearty laugh, "Then I shall take my leave. Although I do not know where my true self may be, I still hope you can find him."

Soon after, Ying Tian Immortal vanished as if he had never appeared.

Eldest Senior Sister conjured three Emperor’s Chairs out of thin air, gesturing for Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity to take a seat, her movements as skilled as if she were in her own spiritual space.

"So what did you two do to summon a remnant thought of Ying Tian Immortal over here?"

Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity honestly recounted the process of passing the tribulation, from overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation to the moment Ying Tian Immortal left, mentioning the Reincarnation Dao Fruit Outline.

Upon hearing Fairy Eternity’s past experiences, Yun Zhi’s eyes showed a hint of pity, well-concealed.

"So you two mean to say that Junior Brother Li is the reincarnation of Time Immortal?"

Eldest Senior Sister nodded, choosing to say no more.

"Then, what are your thoughts on Grey Immortal’s transformation? Why is her personality different from the original fairy, and why does she want to overthrow the Fire Dynasty?"

Lu Yang analyzed, "Judging by Elder Ying Tian Immortal’s description, the more people Ashy Bean kills, the stronger she becomes, to the point where any one of the Four Ancient Immortals couldn’t defeat her."

"So, junior brother, you also think that the more people Grey Immortal kills, the stronger she becomes, and you attribute this to the characteristics of the Annihilation Dao Fruit?"

Lu Yang shook his head, "Whether it is a feature of the Annihilation Dao Fruit, I do not know, but she certainly does not become stronger by killing more people."

```

"If that were the case, she would have already started destroying the world in the 300,000 years since the Fire Dynasty fell."

```

"From her wanting to kill Ao Ling and her wanting to kill me, I tend to believe that she only wants to kill those who are aware of her existence, that is, those who know she exists."

```

"And since the people of the Fire Dynasty all knew of her, that’s why she became stronger as she killed more."

```

Eldest Senior Sister was quite satisfied with Lu Yang’s analytical process, not being confused by the surface information, "Correct, it is the same as what I had thought."

```

"It’s just that I wonder why she is so eager to become stronger and why it differs from the usual cold demeanor of a fairy. I suspect it has to do with the Power of Faith."

```

"Go on?"

```

"Although I don’t know much about the Power of Faith, some clues can be seen from the events concerning the Island Master of Penglai Island in the East Sea."

```

"The Power of Faith is a double-edged sword; it can make one stronger but can also control one’s mind."

```

"The Immortal’s Body of Grey Bean is formed by the Power of Faith, and surely it includes the faith of the Four Ancient Immortals."

```

"It is possible that the Four Ancient Immortals themselves didn’t realize that their thoughts not only contained the resurrection of Fairy Eternity but also the hope that after the fairy’s resurrection, they could join forces to kill the original murderer."

```

Even if Fairy Eternity is revived, there is a debt of life and death to be settled, a vengeance that cannot be left unavenged!

```

𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Influenced by this train of thought, Grey Bean could have undergone another change atop the frosty fairy personality, becoming unscrupulous in her pursuit of strength."

```

"You’re thinking along the same lines as I am, but there’s another possibility that you, Junior Brother, have overlooked."

```

"What is it?"

```

"The thoughts about becoming stronger in the Power of Faith might not originate from the Four Ancient Immortals, but could also come from that murderer."

```

Lu Yang was shocked. Oh, how could he have forgotten this? Over the past hundred thousand years, the murderer just watched the Four Ancient Immortals resurrect Fairy Eternity, indifferent?

```

There must have been some action taken.

```

"Enough about this for now, Junior Brother, don’t forget you’re still in the middle of Passing Tribulation, with one final step left." Eldest Senior Sister stood up, making the three Emperor’s Chairs vanish.

```

Reminded by Eldest Senior Sister, Lu Yang then remembered that his tribulation was not yet over.

```

The most critical part of bodily refinement and transformation hadn’t even begun!

```

"Has Elder Brother Lu Yang’s Heart Devil Tribulation not ended yet?" Tao Yaoye looked worriedly at Lu Yang, who was floating in the air in the distance.

```

"Hey, look, he moved, Elder Brother Lu Yang moved!" A Void Refinement Stage Senior Brother, with keen eyes, saw Lu Yang’s finger move slightly, which meant that the Heart Devil Tribulation was finally over.

```

Sure enough, Lu Yang, who was flying atop Sky Gate Mountain, opened his eyes and his entire temperament was different.

```

The energy of the Supreme Heaven Golden Palace Thunder still lingered in Lu Yang’s body, formerly suppressed by him, and now he planned to use this power for his bodily refinement.

```

Lu Yang released the suppression, allowing the thunder energy to flow through his body, strengthening every muscle and meridian.

```

Unlike the painful period of tribulation, the refinement process felt tingly and quite comfortable, with every pore in his body striving to open and absorb the external Spiritual Energy, transforming it into spiritual essence within him.

```

Spiritual Energy Pool, Spiritual Power, Spiritual Space, the resilience of meridians... his whole person was rejuvenated, a thorough transformation.

```

The results of the thunder refinement were surprisingly good, a refinement of Heavenly Tribulation more powerful than even the foremost-ranked Three Pure Thunder Tribulation, something no Divine Transformation Stage Cultivator had ever experienced.

```

Lu Yang looked inside his Dantian and saw the Nascent Soul start to develop cracks, then gradually disintegrate, releasing an even purer and stronger energy. A new form of energy began to coalesce, and eventually, a primordial spirit the size of Lu Yang himself took shape.

```

Thunder refinement, Nascent Soul to primordial spirit.

```

Lu Yang successfully advanced to the Divinity Transformation Stage!
