Chapter 732 - 732 Heavenly Tribulation

The Northern Sovereign and the others all fell silent as they watched the scene in front of them.

They could all sense that Shun Long was close to his breakthrough, but with every step he took, he was approaching even closer to the dangerous area of the bronze throne.

At this point, the Grand Elder gritted his teeth and slowly took a step forward in a determined manner.

He had decided that as long as Shun Long got too close to the area of the purple lightning, then the Grand Elder would interfere and save him even if it meant ruining his breakthrough.

However, just as Shun Long stepped within 100 meters from the bronze throne, his body suddenly trembled and turned rigid, before a bright blue light erupted from the depths of his spiritual sea. 

This bright blue light was like a cocoon that completely covered Shun Long's body.

Shun Long who was still in a trance hadn't noticed, that from the moment he had begun to gain insights into the Dao King realm 3 days ago, the 'Stone of Time' inside his spiritual space had started to vibrate and emit a deep blue light that was slowly seeping inside his spiritual sea and had started to transform it.

Inside the core region of the King's Palace, Shun Long's mind was fully focused on his breakthrough as he sat cross-legged on the ground, before the sky above his head soon started to rumble.

The Northern Sovereign and the rest of the nearby experts all shivered when they felt the terrifying pressure that was gathering in the sky above them, as they all raised their heads to look at the black thunderclouds above the King's Palace.

The massive thunderclouds that covered an area of more than 10.000 meters were being pushed aside for the first time, as a massive white-colored thundercloud had started to appear in their midst.

''What...is this thing?'' A purple-robed old man whose aura was similar to senior Feng's, at the early stages of the Sovereign realm, couldn't help but mutter in disbelief as he stared at the gigantic snow-white thundercloud that had appeared in the sky.

It wasn't just this purple-robed old man, as similar expressions of shock had also appeared on the faces of the Northern Sovereign and the other experts.

''This... can't be a Heavenly Tribulation! Forget about Dao Kings, even my tribulation to the Sovereign realm wasn't this big.'' A green-robed middle-aged woman said in a horrified voice as she stared at the massive white-colored thundercloud above the King's Palace.

However, the most shocked out of everyone else was the Northern Sovereign.

As an expert at the peak of the Sovereign realm, the Northern Sovereign was the strongest person out of everyone else present and she could clearly understand certain things much better than the rest.

She could see that the white-colored thundercloud had nearly reached a radius of 30.000 meters by now, and it had already covered the entirety of the King's Palace.

The Northern Sovereign knew that the green-robed woman was right. Forget about Dao King realm cultivators, even the Heavenly Tribulation of Sovereign realm experts wouldn't be this big.

And yet, the most terrifying thing was that the white thundercloud was still growing and absorbing even more energy! Clearly, this wasn't the full extent of Shun Long's Heavenly Tribulation! This thought made even the Northern Sovereign herself feel some fear in her heart.

In reality, it wasn't just the experts in the core region who could see this massive white thundercloud in the sky, but everyone else who was inside the King's Palace as well.

Regardless of whether it was the inner court Elders of the Holy sect or the Elders from the other sects who were inside the inner region of the palace, or Jiang Chen, young lady Niu and the rest, everyone raised their heads at the same time to look at the apocalyptic scene in the sky above them!

As young lady Niu looked at the massive white-colored thundercloud, she couldn't help but mumble to herself

''Don't tell me that the Northern Sovereign finally managed to take the final step...''

At the same time, Jiang Chen, Liu Mei, Xingyi, and Bai Longtian, all stared at the white cloud in the sky with solemn looks in their eyes.

They weren't certain if this was really Shun Long's Heavenly Tribulation, but a feeling of uneasiness had filled their hearts, telling them that this was most likely the case.

This thought made Xingyi and the others feel even more uneasy.

They could all sense how horrifying the energy inside this white thundercloud really was, and they could clearly feel that even after breaking through to the Dao King realm, their chances of surviving it were close to zero.

A few moments later, the faces of the experts inside the core region of the King's Palace all paled when they saw the scene that followed, as they all turned their gazes to look at the Northern Sovereign soon after, before one of them asked

''Senior... what should we do?''

Although many among them had reached the Sovereign realm, those experts all knew that the Northern Sovereign was the true person who was in charge of the King's Palace, so she was the one who had to make the decision.

The Northern Sovereign had a serious look in her eyes as she stared at the thundercloud of Heavenly Tribulation that was exactly 99.999 meters long, and after a moment of silence she declared in a cold voice

''Leave the palace for now! Unfortunately, that kid is dead already...''

Senior Feng, the Grand Elder, and the surrounding experts were all surprised by the Northern Sovereign's choice, but after a moment of silence, they understood what was going on.

With how massive the thundercloud of Heavenly Tribulation really was, anyone who stayed within the King's Palace would certainly be affected by it!

Even Sovereign realm experts like the Northern Sovereign didn't have any confidence to survive this, so they had to leave this area as far as they could.

After throwing one last look at Shun Long, the Northern Sovereign shook her head and turned around to leave the King's Palace, carrying with her the Elders and the disciples of the various powers who were still within the inner and the outer region.

It didn't matter whether those people were close to breaking through or not, the Northern Sovereign carried them all with her as she left the palace.

If those people really stayed there, they would definitely be caught inside the Heavenly Tribulation and die for nothing.

The other experts followed after the Northern Sovereign, while the last one to leave was the Grand Elder.

After throwing a reluctant look at Shun Long, the Grand Elder opened a space tear and left the core region of the King's Palace, leaving behind just Shun Long who was still sitting there with his eyes closed.
