Still among the disciples of the Eternal Spring Sect, Meng Qi hugged the arm of her partner, Qiao Xiang, who kept watching Ling Yun's location seriously. He clenched his two fists so tightly that his palms turned red, and his heartbeat accelerated beyond normal.
"Do you still think you can snatch Shang Meiqi and Dongfang Jingjing away from him after witnessing all this?" Meng Qi then looked at Ling Yun's wives and partners. "They have fallen for him, and it's better if you forget them, because you will never succeed in doing so. Otherwise, you'll pay the price, and I can't bear to see you die in his hands."
Qiao Xiang immediately looked at Shang Meiqi and Dongfang Jingjing, and he himself could clearly see their feelings for Ling Yun. However, he doesn't seem to want to give up on his desire to snatch them from his hands, especially since he has liked both of them for a long time.
Qiao Xiang's expression made Meng Qi sigh heavily in her heart, especially since he was clearly unwilling to listen to her advice. 'Sigh! I hope you don't act foolishly by challenging Ling Yun for them, especially since you will definitely die by his hands.'
A little further away, the five male disciples, Ye Yongzhi, Ye Mo, Xiong Jun, Hong Ling, Xiang Xun, and Chang Qiong, also looked very serious as they looked at the cultster of white clouds, accompanied by the flash of those countless white lightnings.
Their bodies shook quite violently as the loud roar of those thunders sounded over the sky, and the aura pressing down on them from above became more and more suffocating with each passing second.
Even powerful cultivators like Long Feng, Zhu Hong, Qi Lin, Qi Jingyi, and the others felt pressured by the aura. Fortunately, their seniors, under Long Yingtai's leadership, immediately moved to surround them, and they used their auras to reduce the pressure so they could feel a little relieved.
"It's coming."
When they heard that, everyone took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. They watched as the countless white lightnings slowly gathered together, quickly forming a figure of man. 'That's crazy shit! This is the first time we've ever witnessed a manifestation from the heavens, and they did it specifically to kill a cultivator with his cultivation only in the mortal realms.'
Soon, they saw Ling Yun floating in front of the manifestation of the heavens, but he was still in his human form with his body covered by the chaos dragon armor, and the chaos dragon broadsword was in his right hand.
Although they were quite far away, they could see that there was no trace of fear on Ling Yun's face, even though his expression looked very serious. 'Is this kid dead serious about fighting the manifestation of the heavens by himself?'
Unlike those people, all Ling Yun's wives, partners, and family members look more relaxed. After all, they have seen the manifestation of the heavens by using his seven lightning tribulations before, and the current one only manifested from his one lightning tribulation, so it is obviously not as powerful as their previous manifestation.
Moreover, the heavens had also tried to kill him twice more after that day, but both times were unsuccessful. In the first, he was helped by the darkness in the endless darkness realm to thwart their white lightnings, and he faced them by himself in the second.

Ling Yun pointed the chaos dragon broadsword at the manifestation of the heavens. "Why don't you guys give up and stop wasting my time? You know that your white lightnings have no effect on me anymore, and you have also failed to kill me many times, so you should stop and let me break through in peace."
Instead, the manifestation of the heavens raised his hand, revealing a white lightning spear, which he immediately threw towards Ling Yun at high speed.
*Swoosh*
Tian Lanyi suddenly intercepted the white lightning spear, grabbed it, and absorbed it into his body. "Hehehe! Thanks for the meal! No need to be shy—use it again, and I'll absorb it all."
*Swoosh... Swoosh... Swoosh...*
As the manifestation of heaven persisted in attacking him with more white lightnings, Ling Yun chose to transform into his half-dragon form to enhance his strength, and he persistently repelled his attacks. Additionally, he released his lightning soul, which immediately floated into the mass of white clouds to absorb those white lightnings, so he could supply Lei Lin with his lightning tribulation.
"Let's see who can last longer between the two of us."
Time continued to pass, but Ling Yun and the manifestation of the heavens still could not determine the winner of the battle between them, making the cultivators below them bored of watching their fight.
Some of them even wanted to challenge the heavens, but they knew they would die instantly if he attacked them with those white lightnings, so they kept their desires to themselves.
.
.
.
A little far away from them, the four immortals who were watching were also feeling bored, and they felt that the fight between them was like a child's fight.
Xing Jiangjun suddenly pulled out his glaive, glaring at the manifestation of the heavens, and was about to attack him. However, Hua Xianren immediately stopped him. "I know you are itching to attack him, but you should not do that, especially since it will provoke him to attack those mortals, and they will not be able to withstand his attacks."
"Xianren is right, Jiangjun." Yun Xian said while nodding. "Even though their fight is boring, it is not yet at its peak stage, and heaven's manifestation still has his strongest attack.
Unfortunately, his efforts will not be successful as long as Ling Yun only breaks through one minor stage, but the story will be different when he breaks through to the five god realms in the future, and this tower will probably collapse because of their fight, so we will only make a move at that time."
Shiwang Zhizhu, who rarely spoke, suddenly spoke to them. "Actually, Ling Yun could have destroyed the heavenly manifestation and accelerated his breakthrough, but he seemed to have deliberately delayed it in order to absorb his lightning tribulation for the spirit of lightning, which was still at her weakest state."
After they remembered Lei Lin's condition, Xing Jiangjun and the others nodded in agreement, and they could only wait for Ling Yun to complete his breakthrough to the middle venerate realm.
