Han Yu had just crossed the city gate when he couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath.
Outside the city gate, there was something that forced him out, and now he finally understood what it was.
"Isn't this the calamity that originally belonged to Wang Xiao'Er?"
Gazing at the distant windstorm, Han Yu was astonished beyond measure.
"It was originally, but now you possess it."
Glass wearily accepted the situation, already knowing something like this would happen when rushing into calamity, and now the backlash had come.
As soon as Han Yu appeared, the howling winds around him became even more frenzied.
No wonder that group of junior cultivators had fled inside; this gale was wild, with a force that was formidable, and if one were to be hit by it a few times, someone with minor cultivation might either be crippled or injured!
Aside from becoming more intense, the hurricane showed no signs of moving.
Steadying himself in the air, Han Yu had no intention of advancing.
The dark cloud above him silently drifted over, lightning surging within the clouds, suddenly the sky was split by a thunderclap.
"It's trying to force you to go!"
Glass immediately understood the calamity's intention.
What?
It wants me to go over?
"I'd have to be out of my mind to go over there."
Without a second thought, Han Yu shook his head.
Hell!
That hurricane looked terrifying enough, rushing in would be courting death.
Just as this thought crossed his mind, there was movement above the clouds.
The long-prepared tribulation thunder descended, columns of lightning as thick as bowls striking straight at him.
Han Yu hurriedly activated the Fire Series divine techniques to boost his speed to the extreme. Each time the lightning slices dangerously close to his scalp, he would feel his hair stand on end.
After dodging several strikes, continuous booming came from above. When he looked up, the turbulence in the clouds had grown more intense.
As if furious, the lightning inside the cloud changed color, flickering purple brilliance emerging sporadically.
"How about you just go?"
Glass suddenly spoke.
Han Yu was incredulous, this creature who was usually the most cautious and afraid to die, now wanted him to go over.
"You may not necessarily die if you go over there, but if you don't, you're definitely going to die."
Glass tipped its face, through the Sea of Consciousness gave Han Yu a wrinkled expression.
If he wasn't mistaken, this calamity originally meant for Wang Xiao'Er had been indirectly affected by Han Yu, leading to an uncontrollable shift in the disaster.
Han Yu's maneuver inadvertently snagged a rule, causing the hurricane to lose its ability to continue pursuing Wang Xiao'Er within the confines of the rules.
And within the constraints of calamity rules, it could not be allowed to simply dissipate.
Yet the rules of nature also wouldn't allow this force to exist endlessly.
Thus, the calamity's rules were inherently conflicting and also antagonistic to the rules of nature.
As the instigator, Han Yu became the target of the calamity.
After Glass recapped the whole process, Han Yu was utterly dumbfounded.
I just made two small hills, do I really deserve to stir up the calamity and natural rules?
"Since the tribulation thunder isn't killing you, it's definitely trying to use you to patch something up."
"I guess it wants you to go through Wang Xiao'Er's calamity so it can withdraw, whether you live or die afterward."
"Serves you right for meddling, now you're in over your head!"
Glass became more incensed the more it spoke, eventually hopping back and forth on the Dragon Blood Stone.
——
"Master, are you still going to look for him?"
Nansheng felt uneasy and couldn't help but speak.
Because everywhere Han Yu had passed, chased by the tribulation thunder, there were deep pits.
No wonder the people of Zhanzhou City had the Omen Star hanging overhead, if this guy ran into a crowd, it'd kill a whole bunch of people.
Ling Wuce looked at the varying depths of pits in the ground and secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, they hadn't rushed in earlier; tribulation thunder is not ordinary thunder.
Ordinary thunder may be fearsome, but for cultivators of the Divine Gaze Realm, it's not difficult to withstand.
Otherwise, Zhao Yulin's group wouldn't have stupidly charged in.
Tribulation thunder is different, though of the same lightning nature, it serves a different function; tribulation thunder presides over tribulations, born in response to a calamity, under the rules of nature, it naturally becomes a force of destruction.
Most importantly, tribulation thunder will continuously grow stronger; if you withstand one bolt, the next will be stronger, and so on, until it kills you...
However, this wave of tribulation thunder seemed different, as if holding back somewhat. With this thought, Ling Wuce glanced at a few places where the people from the Guardian Bureau had fallen.
Zhao Yulin lay on the ground with his head touching the earth, his buttocks in the air, trembling uncontrollably, as electric currents crackled through his body.
Even if he wanted to use True Essence to protect himself, he couldn't muster the strength to call upon it.
The other nine were even worse; now bent over on the ground, they continued to twitch constantly.
Fortunately, they were merely embarrassed, but not seriously hurt.
Thus, Ling Wuce wondered if the tribulation thunder was holding back.
After a full thirty more breaths, Zhao Yulin shakily got to his feet, his legs wobbling as he walked over, his lips trembling from numbness.
"Ling... sir, where... is he?"
Oh, so they're planning to chase after him?
Ling Wuce squinted up at the dazzling Omen Star above Zhao Yulin's head.
"You stay put here, don't go out of the city."
The Omen Star was shining so brightly that pursuing further was likely to end in death or injury.
Then he glanced at his young apprentice and continued.
"You stay with them, don't run around."
After giving his instructions, he instantly vanished.
In just a few breaths, he appeared outside the city.
More precisely, he landed right next to Han Yu.
The sudden, silent appearance of someone beside him naturally startled Han Yu. Upon realizing who it was, he immediately used Earth Escape Divine Power.
Seeing half his body already in the ground, unfortunately, he couldn't sink further from below the waist.
Ling Wuce effortlessly grabbed him and hoisted him back, eyeing him curiously before speaking.
"Don't worry, I mean you no harm."
After saying that, he looked with admiration and curiously asked,
"Did you pierce the heavens or something? How come you alone can simultaneously attract the Three Tribulations of wind, fire, and thunder?"
The so-called Three Tribulations are wind, fire, and thunder.
The dark cloud up there with tribulation thunder aside, now that hurricane a mile away mixed with both tribulation wind and tribulation fire.
How wretched must one be to gather the three calamities of wind, thunder, and fire?
Han Yu remained silent, at heart still wary of this suddenly appeared old man.
This is bad!
A hurricane outside, tribulation thunder above, and now an old man in the Realm of Transcendence.
Ping, as always, spewed out mist enveloping itself, as Glass pushed its "bed" and hid inside too.
"How did you manage it?"
Ling Wuce's curiosity was insatiable.
Calamity and Qi Fortune go hand in hand; seemingly oppositional, they actually depend on each other.
If one's Qi Fortune is high, calamity does not befall them.
If one's Qi Fortune is depleted, calamity arises.
"It's simple, just like you, enter someone else's calamity."
Han Yu cast a glance at the increasingly impatient tribulation cloud, indicating it with a nod.
Suddenly, the lightning flared up.
A column of lightning thundered down!
