The Dharma Ending Tribulation will take place in all the worlds. Boy, you’re not the only Tribulation Taker!

This statement revealed the truth.
Zhou Bao was not the only Tribulation Taker in the universe. Taoist Jin had created the worlds in all the directions of the Void Universe. There were five main worlds in the north, south, east, west and center. Even though each main world had only one protagonist, there were five protagonists in total and Zhou Bao was just one of them. He had never met another Tribulation Taker before, for these worlds were so far apart that the Tribulation Takers had no chance to come across. But now they were in a different position.
They were now in the Immortal Realm. Although it was vast, they inevitably ran into each other and clashed.

You mean that there are five Tribulation Takers in the five main worlds created by Taoist Jin, and I’m just one of them?




Yes, you’re a smart man!


The guy who attacked me just now is one of the five Tribulation Takers. Why did he attack me?


For fate, young man. A Tribulation Taker can rob another Tribulation Taker of his good fortune by killing him. Young man, think back to how lucky you have been from birth to the beginning of your practice to now. What would happen if a man who had the same good fortune as you had seized yours? What if he seizes two Tribulation Takers, or even three Tribulation Takers?


Why?
Zhou Bao asked, startled. It was a scary idea, one that could drive a person mad. A Tribulation Taker was the equivalent of a lucky protagonist. Zhou Bao reflected on his experiences over the years and imagined what might have happened if his luck had doubled, tripled, quadrupled, or even quintupled. He would have become a Celestial Immortal, not to mention an Earthly Immortal. At the thought of this, his killing intent raged. His eyes were full of blood, roaming about, as if trying to find and kill a Tribulation Taker.

You can’t plan everything, and it’s hard to fathom a person’s mind!

The Ghost Child gave a sigh before earnestly explaining,
The human mind is unfathomable. Even the Way of Heaven and providence can’t take full control of it. The so-called providence and Way of Heaven have to do more than control the development trend. It’s not easy to make everything develop in a certain way. The Way of Heaven cannot control everything. The human mind is changing all the time. So, every time there’s a tribulation there are different Tribulation Takers. They are all blessed with great fate and represent the different directions that the Way of Heaven allows. And in the end, only the strongest among them can get all the good fortune between heaven and earth and become the real Tribulation Taker!


In the same way, the general trend of the Way of Heaven is under control!


Yes, the Way of Heaven isn’t omnipotent. All it can do is set up corresponding Tribulation Takers under the most favorable possibilities. Incredibly lucky Tribulation Takers will eventually take the general trend of events to its most desired direction. That’s the real reason Tribulation Takers come into being!


The five Tribulation Takers are meant to kill each other, and the damn providence wins anyway!


You win some, you lose some. You get some, you return some. This is the most basic law of heaven and earth. If you don’t understand or accept it, you’ve failed!




I’m one of the five Tribulation Takers, and so is that guy who attacked me. Then there are three other Tribulation Takers. With their fate, they should have arrived in the Immortal Realm. Are we going to fight here?


Not really, you don’t necessarily have to fight each other. You can work together as well!
He paused before adding,
Just like the Jade Emperor, he was one of the last Tribulation Takers in the antiquity times. He cooperated with the other two Tribulation Takers and created a golden age, the antiquity times!


Cooperation or confrontation. Unfortunately, I don’t know any other Tribulation Takers. Otherwise, I could cooperate with them.
Zhou Bao smiled but oozed strong murderous intent.
But I’ll definitely kill that bastard!


Whether you kill him or not, you are new in the Void Immortal Realm. There are rules here, and you can’t be as presumptuous as you were in the Human World. Young man, you’d better keep your head down. Now that you and the inheritor of the Immortal-eliminating Sword Qi have come, the other three should arrive soon, too. If you fight in the Void Immortal Realm, I can guarantee that your halo will soon be gone!


I’m not that stupid!

He was certainly not that stupid. He knew where he was now.
He was in the Void Immortal Realm!
To practitioners, the Void Immortal Realm was the top of the world in legend. As a newcomer in such a fantastic world, Zhou Bao was certainly not going to mess with things he shouldn’t. But that didn’t mean he would swallow insults in meek submission.

I’ve just come to this place and I don’t know anything about it. What should I do now?
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Bao looked around at the towering mountains, speechless. He could not hang around in the Immortal Realm. He had to have a purpose. Part of the reason why he had come so quickly to the Void Immortal Realm was that he had been egged on by the Ghost Child, so he asked him for advice.
The Ghost Child seemed to have been prepared for this, but just as he was about to say something, the space around Zhou Bao created another weird wave.



How are you, King Wuyang?


Huh!!??

Zhou Bao paused for a while at the sight of the newcomer, and then laughed,
I’m fine, Taoist Qing Feng!

It was Qing Feng!
He was one of the two Taoist Attendants left at the Fifth Manor of Longevity Mountain.
But now he was different. He no longer looked like a Taoist Attendant. To be exact, he had grown up and become a handsome young man in his twenties.
Zhou Bao certainly did not think of him as a handsome young man in his twenties. He smiled at him and responded politely.
Clearly, Qing Feng had ascended into the Earthly Immortal Realm.
And the Celestial Punishment Palace that Zhou Bao had given him was the reason for that, so Qing Feng owed him a big favor.
However, favors were the most realistic but also the least reliable. Without the ability to repay, a favor was just a favor.



It’s only been a few days since we last met, and you’ve broken through to the Earthly Immortals’ Great Way. Congratulations!!!


Thank you for your help, King Wuyang!
Qing Feng smiled,
Since you are new to the Immortal Realm, there are probably many things you don’t understand. How about we go to the Fifth Manor?!


Sure!
Zhou Bao raised his eyebrows and said,
King Wuyang was just an amusing title in the Human World. Now my Taoist name is Cundi. Just call me Cundi!


Cundi!
Qing Feng smiled,
Okay, I’ll call you Taoist Cundi!

Soon they arrived in the Fifth Manor of Longevity Mountain.
It still seemed familiar to Zhou Bao.
He was distinctly familiar with it.
It looked the same as it had been in the Heaven Realm World. Everything on the mountain; the trees, streams and waterfalls, looked exactly the same.
The only change was probably its position. It was in the Void Immortal Realm, not in the Heaven Realm World anymore.
As soon as they reached the gate, they saw Ming Yue standing on the stone steps. He bowed to Zhou Bao with a look of gratitude. After all, they owed Zhou Bao a great favor. Even if the favor did not need to be returned, they would be courteous to him.



Now that the Fifth Manor is in the Immortal Realm, has the ginseng fruit tree recovered?
Zhou Bao wondered to himself.
But the reality fell short of his expectations.
As in the Heaven Realm World, only Qing Feng and Ming Yue stayed in the Fifth Manor. Their senior and junior brothers, including the Emperor Baiqi of the Seven Mysteries World, were absent. And the withered ginseng fruit tree, though it had sprung to life, had only a few leaves, never mind fruit.

Haha, the ginseng fruit tree has withered since the beginning of the antiquity times and lacked the nourishment of the essence in the Heaven Realm World. It has come to life in the Immortal Realm, but it will take another ten thousand years or so to taste its fruit!
Seeing Zhou Bao’s slightly disappointed face, Qing Feng laughed.

Ten thousand years or so?!!

Ten thousand years was nothing to an Earthly Immortal, almost equal to the average person’s nap. But in the current situation, for Zhou Bao, 10,000 years would be too late. He had to give up on the ginseng fruit.
Qing Feng and Ming Yue showed him around the Fifth Manor, and they chatted and laughed from time to time. Nearly an hour later, having visited the entire Manor, they hadn’t gotten to the point yet.
At last they entered a quiet yard, sat down, and chatted a bit before he got to the point.

Taoist Cundi, do you have any plans in the Immortal Realm?


Plans? No. I just happened to come here. As for the plan, I need your advice, seniors!
