On the ancient peak, Ye Futian opened his eyes and saw the Light of Buddha flowing above the firmament. He could perceive that a horrible aura was currently brewing.
“No!” Ye Futian immediately retracted his aura with a thought. In an instant, there was no aura leaking from him, and he was just like any other ordinary person. No sense of the Way could be perceived from him at all.
At this moment, Ye Futian seemed to be someone who had no cultivation whatsoever.
At the same time, that terrifying aura that was brewing above the firmament disappeared as well. It manifested in a flash and dissipated just as quickly; it was as if it had never existed before.
“What’s going on?” There was a voice from above Spirit Mountain, apparently sensed by other cultivators. At this time, a great Buddha asked, and his voice resounded throughout Spirit Mountain.
“I don’t know. Just now, there seemed to be an aura of tribulation, but it disappeared in an instant. Why is that?” a great Buddha replied, somewhat puzzled.
Why did that aura only appear for an instant?
Was it tribulation?
Many great Buddhas released their consciousness and seemed to appear in another place in an instant.
“Did any of the Buddhas know what happened?”
“Is it someone with powerful Buddhist cultivation here at Spirit Mountain?”
“I don’t know, but no one new came,” another Buddha responded. They had all felt the aura at that instant, but no one paid any attention to Ye Futian. Even if they did, they would never know that the aura was produced on account of him.
After all, that aura was not from Ye Futian but the sky above.
“Perhaps we need to consult the Buddha Lords,” another Buddha suggested. Perhaps, someone on the level of Buddha Lords would know a little more than they did.
However, after that suggestion was made, no Buddha Lords on the Spirit Mountain said anything, which puzzled them. Exactly what had happened?
But no one associated the event with Ye Futian. After all, his cultivation was only Renhuang in the Eighth-Realm.
Even at Renhuang in the Eighth-Realm, a breakthrough of the realm would only be at the Ninth-Realm, stepping into the realm of Peak Renhuang, and would in no way have any connection with that terrifying aura.
In fact, at this time, Ye Futian, who was on top of the ancient peak, also had a strange look on his face.
Was that aura the aura of tribulation?
The moment he broke through the realm, he clearly perceived it, and it was an aura that was beyond frightening. It was definitely not any lesser than the divine tribulations that Jieyu and Emperor Xi had experienced previously.
Wouldn’t this mean that he had ushered in the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path when he only had the breakthrough the Eighth-Realm, just as he was entering into the Ninth-Realm?
If so, this worked against the iron-clad rule in cultivation and did not conform to the rules of cultivation.
Of course, everything that had ever happened to him was always a little strange. Before, he couldn’t break through no matter what he did. But now, with a simple epiphany, he had attracted the Divine Tribulation.

When he retracted his aura, he could no longer perceive the Divine Tribulation, for it had disappeared again.
Cultivators had to go through three tribulations when breaking the shackles of Renhuang. Only after the baptism of all three Divine Tribulations could they prove the supremacy of the Way, thus achieving the realm of the Great Emperor. Only then could they be conferred with the title of deity.
The existence of tribulation was because the rules of heaven and earth did not allow it; therefore, the appearance of the Divine Tribulation was so that the order of the Great Path would execute those who broke through the realm.
If this were the case, then the Divine Tribulation he had attracted when he broke through the Ninth-Realm would mean that he was no longer permitted by the Heavenly Path as it currently stood? And that he was going to be sanctioned by the order of the Great Path?
In other words, he was not allowed to step into the Ninth-Realm as it currently stood. Was it for this reason that he had not been able to break through before?
What was the reason for all this?
How did he offend the heavens?
And there was another very crucial question: if he were to survive this Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, what realm would he be in?
It seemed that he would be embarking on a completely different path from other cultivators.
Which path was his path?
All of this was yet unknown. He had no idea how strong the Divine Tribulation would be or what realm he would be in after surviving the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. Perhaps he would only know after he had an exchange with other cultivators.
“Shooo…” Ye Futian let out a long breath and glanced at the Light of Buddha above the firmament. A quiet smile appeared in his clear eyes. In any case, he had finally taken this step and passed through the bottleneck. Although he would go on to a different path, he had a feeling that this path would be extraordinary.
Both Hua Qingqing and Hua Jieyu had arrived. The other Buddhist cultivators on the Spirit Mountain did not make the associations with Ye Futian. Still, Hua Jieyu and Hua Qingqing had accompanied Ye Futian in his cultivation, and they knew Ye Futian’s situation the best. Therefore, as soon as they sensed that aura, they rushed over immediately.
Watching Ye Futian standing there, it was as if he was one with the world around him, without any fluctuations of aura on his person. He appeared just like any other ordinary person, yet he was part of the scenery before them; it was completely natural. Then they knew that Ye Futian might have broken through the realm because he was now different again.
“You broke through?” Hua Jieyu asked Ye Futian via voice transmission.
“Yes, I did.” Ye Futian smiled while looking at Hua Jieyu. He responded using voice transmission, not using direct communication. Ye Futian had restrained himself without attracting the Divine Tribulation because he did not want other cultivators on the Spirit Mountain to detect that his cultivation was, in any way, unusual.
After all, many Buddhist cultivators in Buddhist Sect were hostile towards him. Therefore, it was far better to be a little more cautious to void appearing overly shocking or out of the ordinary.
He did not know if there were other precedents in the history of attracting the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path while breaking through to the Ninth-Realm from the Eighth. If there were, it might have only been in the legends. If so, he would inevitably attract too much attention again, and the news may even be carried back to the Divine Prefecture.
Therefore, he did not want to be exposed and temporarily suppressed the thought of surviving the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path.
“Was that you?” Hua Qingqing also asked through voice transmission. He was obviously inquiring about the phenomenon from before.
“It was me,” Ye Futian responded.
“It seems that it was not too far from what we expected. Your cultivation path is different from all the others,” Hua Qingqing responded with a smile.
“Thanks to your guidance, I have been reading and comprehending Buddhist scriptures in the past few years. Not long ago, I had a conversation with Grandmaster Bitter Zen. Only then did I have an epiphany and finally broke through the shackles. Only, I didn’t expect it to lead to the Divine Tribulation.” Ye Futian said, “You have cultivated with the Buddha himself. Have you ever heard of anyone who had an experience like this?”
“No.” Hua Qingqing said, “Although Buddhist cultivation is somewhat different from the cultivation of the outside world, surviving the tribulation of the Great Path is the same everywhere.”
“In fact, there is no difference between the cultivation of Buddhism and the cultivation of the Great Path in the Divine Prefecture,” Ye Futian responded. “It’s just using a different method to reach the other side, but the Great Paths are all interconnected. In essence, they are still the same.”
“It seems that you have made great progress in comprehending Buddhist Scriptures in these years, and your views on cultivation are different. Nonetheless, the ultimate pursuit is indeed the same,” Hua Qingqing responded.
“We should leave,” Ye Futian suddenly said, transmitting his voice to both of them at the same time. He had been cultivating in the Western World for more than ten years. Next, he would have to survive the tribulation, so there was no point in staying in Spirit Mountain any longer. He would now need to look for a place to prepare himself.
In Spirit Mountain, if he exposed the slightest of his aura, he may attract the power of the tribulation. By then, everyone else would know!
