What I teach you is real stuff.

In the void, the ascension tribulation has already appeared.

The scene of that willow tree rising from the ground and transforming into human form was witnessed by many powerful figures in the Northern Continent Alliance.

The powerful figures within the Northern Continent Alliance were momentarily stunned when they saw the willow tree take human form.

Because none of them recognized this willow tree.

"Who is this person? Does our Northern Continent Alliance possess such a tree-shaped demon?"

"I've never heard of this before. When did our alliance acquire such a powerful figure?"

"If I remember correctly, the strongest tree creature in my alliance should be that Fellow Daoist Locust Tree, but that Fellow Daoist Locust Tree's current cultivation level is only at the eighth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, while this Great Demon Willow Tree's cultivation level is clearly at the peak of the Mahayana Realm, and she is currently undergoing the tribulation of ascension."

"Where did this powerful figure come from? He has been hiding in our Northern Continent Alliance for so many years without us noticing him at all. This shows just how powerful his realm and foundation are."

"Do you all think we should stop this person from ascending to the Immortal Realm? This person may be cultivating in our Northern Continent Alliance. Is it necessary to detain him and interrogate him?" someone suggested.

Immediately someone objected: "Are you crazy? A peak Mahayana cultivator, who among you can rival him? I'm not going."

“This person ascended to heaven within our Northern Continent Alliance, not from our Northern Continent Alliance. If we don’t make things clear, it would be a disgrace to our Northern Continent Alliance,” said an elder of the Northern Continent Alliance.

That's exactly what happened.

Before this, they had no idea of ​​the existence of this great willow tree demon, nor did they know how many years it had been rooted in their Northern Continent Alliance.

All that is known is that it has already reached the peak of the Mahayana stage when it makes its appearance, and now it is using the land of their Northern Continent Alliance to undergo tribulation and ascend to the Upper Realm.

If they don't investigate this matter thoroughly and let the other party ascend to the Immortal Realm so easily, people will think that the Northern Continent Alliance can't control its own destiny.

If they so easily allow outsiders to occupy their territory to cultivate, undergo tribulations, and ascend, people will think that the Northern Continent Alliance is easy to bully.

The elders were all caught in a dilemma.

On the one hand, they really didn't want to provoke this peak Mahayana expert, and on the other hand, it was also a matter of face.

Fortunately, at this moment a beautiful figure gracefully arrived, exuding a powerful aura; she was also a Mahayana stage expert.

Although this person's aura was only at the early stage of the Mahayana realm and his strength was far inferior to that of the elders present, the elders and ancestors of the Northern Continent Alliance showed him the utmost respect upon his arrival.

"Elder Lin."

"I've met Elder Lin."

This beautiful figure was none other than Lin Yue'er.

Lin Yue'er is no longer the same as before. Not only has her cultivation level risen to the Mahayana stage in the past tens of thousands of years, but her status within the Northern Continent Alliance has also risen accordingly.

After Lu Yuan and Yao Xuan ascended to the Immortal Realm, the current leader of the Northern Continent Alliance is Zi Yanchen from the Zi family.

The deputy leader was Qingnang Medicine Saint, followed by Lin Yue'er.

She has now become the third-in-command of the Northern Continent Alliance and the Grand Elder in charge of financial management.

He holds a high position and status within the Northern Continent Alliance and is deeply loved by the people.

Lin Yue'er was also drawn here by the aura of this place.

After Lin Yue'er arrived, the elders of the Northern Continent Alliance present asked her the same questions they had just heard.

They felt it was inappropriate to let this person break through the Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm so easily on their Northern Continent Alliance territory. If word got out, people would think that their Northern Continent Alliance was a pushover that could be easily bullied.

However, Lin Yue'er had a different opinion. She said, "I don't think this is inappropriate. Although this senior is not a member of my Northern Continent Alliance, he has been cultivating in my Northern Zhou Alliance for many years and has never had any ill intentions towards us. That means he is a friend, not an enemy."

Besides, we are all from the same world plane of the Azure Sky. When we ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, we will all call each other fellow Daoists. Why make enemies out of thin air?

Moreover, one of Alliance Leader Lu's original intentions in establishing the Northern Continent Alliance and the Northern Continent Academy was to educate all things and cultivate talent. Now that this powerful willow tree cultivator has reached the peak of the Mahayana stage and is about to ascend, with a bright future ahead, would it be excessive for us to interfere with his ascension at this time? It would also contradict Alliance Leader Lu's original intentions.”

Lin Yue'er felt that although the willow tree demon was not a member of their Northern Continent Alliance, all things have a spirit.

As long as this person is not an enemy of their Northern Continent Alliance, then it doesn't matter.

Maybe they're just using this place to break through their tribulation and ascend to immortality. Why take it so seriously? If word gets out, people will think the Northern Continent Alliance can't tolerate people.

Moreover, when they ascend to heaven after breaking through the Heavenly Tribulation, the Heavenly Gate will appear, and immortal energy from the upper realm will surge out from the gate, which will also benefit the Northern Continent Alliance.

The immortal energy irrigated the land of the Northern Continent Alliance, so they actually benefited. Why would they want to obstruct someone's path to ascension at this time and create an enemy for no reason?

Lin Yue'er's words silenced the elders of the Northern Continent Alliance present. They looked at each other, unsure of what to say. In fact, upon closer examination, what Elder Lin said was not wrong and made a lot of sense.

Just as these powerful figures from the Northern Continent Alliance were pondering this, a voice descended from the sky.

“What Yue’er said is right. Ascension is a major event. It is unrighteous and immoral to obstruct someone’s ascension. Our Northern Continent Alliance will not do such a thing.”

As this voice rang out, some elders in the Northern Continent Alliance who held opposing views couldn't help but mutter to themselves upon hearing it.

Who's being nosy here?
However, when they looked in the direction of the sound, they saw a figure breaking through space and coming.

As soon as this person took a step, a spatial gate opened beneath his feet, a truly mysterious phenomenon.

This kind of utilization and manipulation of space is something that even the most advanced Mahayana cultivators cannot achieve. It can only be said that this person's ability to utilize and control space has reached an inconceivable level.

An elder quickly recognized the man.

Leader Lu!
"It's Alliance Leader Lu!"

Within the Northern Continent Alliance today, there are already statues of Lu Yuan and Xiao Huang, the two original alliance leaders and vice-leaders. So even though Lu Yuan ascended tens of thousands of years ago, the current disciples and elders of the Northern Continent Alliance can still recognize Lu Yuan's appearance at a glance.

After all, Lu Yuan's statue is huge and stands in the most conspicuous place in the Northern Continent Alliance. It can be seen every day, so it's not surprising that people can recognize it at a glance.

They just didn't expect that Alliance Leader Lu would appear at this time. Was he returning to the Azure Heaven World from the Immortal Realm?

Lin Yue'er never expected that her teacher would return from the Celestial Realm today.

In her early years, Lin Yue'er also became Lu Yuan's disciple, but at that time Lu Yuan only treated her as a nominal disciple. However, this was enough for Lin Yue'er to gain a lot.

It can be said that Lin Yue'er's current status and strength are directly related to Lu Yuan. "Teacher, when did you come back?" Lin Yue'er asked in surprise.

Lu Yuan said, "I just got back a few days ago and went to Flying Dragon City to take care of some things. I wasn't planning to go back to the Northern Continent Alliance and was just about to return directly to the Immortal Realm when I unexpectedly encountered the aura of someone in the Northern Continent Alliance undergoing tribulation and ascending to immortality. I felt that this person's aura was somewhat familiar, so I came to take a look."

As Lu Yuan spoke, he looked at the figure in the sky, which turned out to be a willow tree in human form.

Lu Yuan didn't remember that there was a great demon willow tree in his Northern Continent Alliance, and he wondered why the Heaven and Earth Immortal Technique he gave to Xiao Huo had appeared on this willow tree.

Could it be that Fengchu Xiao Huo has once again given away the martial arts technique he passed on to him?
Lu Yuan wasn't particularly surprised by this outcome, as this wasn't the first time something like this had happened.

Xiao Huo did the same thing last time. He had just passed on the Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique to Lu Yuan, but not long after, Lu Yuan discovered that it was not Xiao Huo who ultimately succeeded in cultivating it, but Xiao Huang.

This is the second time this has happened, which is both unexpected and expected.

Lu Yuan's expression was complicated for a moment, and he didn't know what to say. His young disciple was really generous.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh when he thought about how the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick hadn't ascended to immortality even after tens of thousands of years, while this willow tree had ascended first.

My Great Luo Sect truly produces many talented individuals.

Lin Yue'er asked, "Teacher, is this willow tree also your disciple?"

Lu Yuan shook his head: "No, this demon must have had a different destiny. But speaking of which, the cultivation technique he practiced was indeed created by me."

Lu Yuan neither confirmed nor denied it, only saying that the cultivation technique practiced by the willow tree demon originated from him and was indeed passed on to Xiao Huo, but he didn't know how it ended up in the hands of the willow tree demon.

Lin Yue'er understood after listening to her teacher's words.

Since we were practically fellow disciples, I couldn't stop him from breaking through the tribulation and ascending to immortality.

Lu Yuan also started to observe. Since he was already here, and happened to see this willow demon triggering a tribulation and ascending to the immortal realm, he decided to watch and see how strong this willow demon was.

Soon, the tribulation lightning for the tribulation began.

This willow demon truly lives up to his reputation as someone who has cultivated the Immortal Heaven and Earth Technique. His foundation and resources are incredibly solid. The ascension tribulation he summons is of extremely high quality, with each bolt of heavenly lightning striking down with unparalleled solidity and immense power.

Among the ascendants of the Northern Continent Alliance, few can match the scale of the tribulation she triggered.

Lin Yue'er said, "This Senior Willow Demon is truly amazing. In my memory, this level of tribulation only seems to have occurred when Senior Brother Zhang Feifei, Senior Brother Gao Yang, Senior Brother Ning Feng, and Alliance Master Yao Xuan ascended to immortality."

When Lu Yuan, Xiao Huang, and Jiang Ming ascended to heaven, Lu Yuan was exempted from the ascension tribulation because of his connection to the tribulation. Therefore, since Lu Yuan did not experience the tribulation when he ascended, there was no reference point for him.

The only things Lin Yue'er and the others had actually witnessed were the ascension tribulations that Zhang Feifei, Ning Feng, Gao Yang, and others who ascended later underwent.

Although other elders of the Northern Continent Alliance ascended to immortality later, it was clear to discerning people that the tribulations triggered during their ascension to the Immortal Realm varied in rank, depending on the potential and foundation of each ascendant.

Lu Yuan's ascension was not marked by a tribulation of lightning, so he is not included in the statistics. However, even though he is not included in the statistics, he can still be directly listed as a unique case.

In addition, the ascension tribulation in the Azure Heaven World can be basically divided into three levels.

The first tier consists of people like Zhang Feifei, Ning Feng, and Gao Yang, who are basically in the first tier below Lu Yuan.

The second tier is the tribulation triggered by the ascension of an elder of the Northern Continent Alliance.

The third tier consists of the tribulation level for ordinary Mahayana ascension cultivators outside of the Northern Continent Alliance.

Among them, the lightning tribulation of Lu Yuan's personal disciples, such as Zhang Feifei, was of the highest quality because they cultivated techniques personally bestowed by Alliance Leader Lu and received his personal guidance, which naturally made them different.

The reason why the elders of the Northern Continent Alliance faced the second-highest tribulation upon ascension was because most of them had strengthened their foundations according to the cultivation methods left by Lu Yuan, and the resources within the Northern Continent Alliance also made their foundations more stable, so they were naturally a cut above ordinary Mahayana cultivators outside.

The third tier is ordinary Mahayana ascension. Generally, the tribulation lightning triggered by ordinary Mahayana ascension is the weakest, since it is normal for those who did not follow the proper path to ascend.

At this moment, the tribulation lightning summoned by the powerful Liu Yao was clearly far stronger than the tribulation lightning summoned by the elders of the Northern Continent Alliance upon their ascension. It was comparable to the commotion when Zhang Feifei, Ning Feng, and others ascended to immortality.

However, this willow demon seemed to be bad at fighting. Faced with the tribulation of ascension, it had a high realm and extremely profound cultivation foundation, but it seemed to have no idea how to deal with it.

When struck by the tribulation lightning of ascension, he only knew to resist with his own physical body and magic power, without using any magic weapons or supernatural abilities.

Lin Yue'er was getting anxious just watching.

Could it be that this senior doesn't possess any magical treasures or supernatural powers?
That's impossible. They've already reached the Mahayana stage, not some Qi Refining novice who knows nothing. How could they not even know magic weapons and supernatural powers?

Even if you've cultivated to the Mahayana level, don't you still have basic combat skills?

Lin Yue'er couldn't understand it, but Lu Yuan could tell at a glance that the willow demon's cultivation technique was simple and its spiritual root was even purer, indicating that it was taking human form for the first time.

Moreover, judging from the way this demon was flustered when dealing with the lightning tribulation, it's highly likely that it had never even experienced combat before.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but suspect that this Willow Demon really hadn't learned anything, and might have simply obtained Xiao Huo's Immortal Scripture of Heaven and Earth, and then relied solely on that Immortal Scripture of Heaven and Earth to cultivate to the peak of the Mahayana stage.

Besides, if one has not learned magic, supernatural powers, or martial arts, then there is no need to talk about magical treasures.

It must genuinely not understand, and genuinely doesn't know how.

"A Mahayana cultivator who only knows cultivation techniques and is a complete novice?"

Lu Yuan was at a loss for words. This kind of Mahayana cultivator must be a rare gem in the entire Immortal Realm, a unique phenomenon in the Azure Heaven World.

It can only be said that Mahayana Buddhism was created by a series of unexpected events.

However, since this tree demon has cultivated Lu Yuan's techniques, and it just so happens that Lu Yuan, who has returned to the Azure Heaven World, saw it undergoing its tribulation today, then it can be considered a matter of fate.

Lu Yuan still believed in fate, and somehow he wanted to help this willow demon.

So, at the very moment a powerful bolt of lightning struck down, the little girl Liu Yao fled in the void, nearly perishing under the lightning.

Lu Yuan made his move, slicing away the lightning with a sword from a distance and saving its life.

The Mahayana Willow Demon panicked, thinking he was about to be struck dead by heavenly lightning, but then he discovered that the terrifying heavenly lightning had been cut off.

Following the sword light, Liu Yao looked over and immediately gave Lu Yuan a grateful look. (End of Chapter)
