The tribulation clouds had long been brewing. The moment Liuchuan took root, howling winds swept across the area, and the first tribulation lightning, as thick as a grown man's arm, struck straight down onto the massive willow tree. The willow leaves at the crown immediately began to wither, losing their previous vibrant, dripping green. Jiandan sat atop Longlei, having already retreated outside the range of the tribulation lightning. She simply watched the scene with a focused gaze. Feicui, standing beside her, was equally nervous; this willow tree had accompanied her master ever since their days in the lower realms, so the bond between them was naturally different.
Meanwhile, Liuchuan, who was undergoing the heavenly tribulation, found himself reminiscing about his path of Cultivation.
Ever since he gained spiritual sentience and embarked on Cultivation, he had been kept captive by the Liu Family of the Central Immortal Realm. After ascending to the Immortal ranks, because he was unwilling to form a master-servant contract with a Liu Family disciple, he was banished to a Purple-Grade Secret Realm to guard the spirit fields. It was a classic case of using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, effectively serving as a disguised punishment.
