Fang Yi Fan Meng Han and Duan Ling Tian had spoken about how terrifying the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation was for level-six supreme powerhouses.

According to Meng Han, he likely would not have survived the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation if it was not for the fourth Heaven Protection Talisman.

Even with the fourth Heaven Protection Talisman, he still suffered some injuries.

It was only after he had broken through that he managed to heal his injuries with his new vital energy.

Fortunately, the injuries were not very severe.

Lei Hong from the Sun Bright World only managed to overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation several decades after he obtained the Heaven Protection Talisman.

With this, one could imagine how powerful the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation was.

‘It seems like Meng Han was bragging previously…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

Previously, when Meng Han mentioned Lei Hong from the Sun Bright World and Fang Yi Fan from the Transcendence World, he had claimed that the duo was among the strongest from the Three Upper Worlds.

He also implied that his strength was on par with theirs.

However, considering how difficult it was for Meng Han to pass the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation, the fact that Lei Hong successfully overcame the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation without an additional Heaven Protection Talisman meant that Lei Hong was likely stronger than Meng Han.

“Lei Hong is so strong?” The four women next to Duan Ling Tian were amazed after they listened to Duan Ling Tian.

They also did not expect Lei Hong to successfully overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation.

Nonetheless, they were not worried about Duan Ling Tian.

They knew that he was now the strongest even among level-seven supreme powerhouses.

After all, he had a very high comprehension of three out of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth.

When he used the three Daos at once, no one was a match for him.

… Needless to say, the heavenly text stirred up a commotion in the God Defying World.

Xiao Mu Bai and a few others quickly gathered, and a hint of fear could be seen in their eyes.

“Lei Hong is not to be underestimated,” one of them said solemnly.

“Indeed,” Xiao Mu Bai said with a nod, “When Lord Duan overcame the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation, the World supreme powerhouses from the Three Upper Worlds threatened us, and Lei Hong was the most arrogant among them all.” Lei Hong’s arrogance left a deep impression on Xiao Mu Bai.

Moreover, when his father was alive, he had heard about Lei Hong from his father as well.

It was said that Lei Hong had a quick temper and often injured and killed people in a fit of rage.

Lei Hong was known to be the most belligerent World supreme powerhouse in the Three Upper Worlds.

Another supreme powerhouse said with a dark expression, “I didn’t expect Meng Han to become a level-seven supreme powerhouse in just a decade…” With the arrival of a new level-seven supreme powerhouse, the God Defying World’s unrivaled status was slowly diminishing.

The God Defying World was still the most fearsome World now since they had two level-seven supreme powerhouses.

However, what about the future? Just the Sun Bright World alone had a few World supreme powerhouses on par with Lei Hong before his breakthrough.

If Lei Hong could overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation, it would not be difficult for them to do so as well.

… On the other hand, the others in the God Defying World were not worried about Lei Hong’s breakthrough.

In their opinion, the God Defying World was still the strongest since it had two level-seven supreme powerhouses.

… All of a sudden… “Look! Lei Hong has successfully broken through!” Xiao Mu Bai looked up, and his expression was extremely grim.

Another heavenly text appeared.

‘Congratulations to Lei Hong from the Sun Bright World on breaking through and becoming the fourth level-seven supreme powerhouse after the historical gap, surpassing World supreme powerhouses and Saints.’ Needless to say, the appearance of another level-seven supreme powerhouse shocked everyone in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary.

… At the same time, the various forces in the Sun Bright World were in an uproar.

“Lei Hong actually broke through?! He managed to overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation even without an additional Heaven Protection Talisman.

It seems like I have a chance as well…” In a vast and scenic valley in the Sun Bright World, an old man was sitting cross-legged in the air above a small waterfall.

His expression was solemn as he looked at the heavenly text in the sky.

The old man was a World supreme powerhouse in the Sun Bright World who was on par with Lei Hong.

They had sparred a few times before, and each of the fights ended in a draw.

As such, he was very confident about his strength.

Previously, his confidence had suffered a blow when Lei Hong successfully obtained the Heaven Protection Talisman in the Heaven Traversing Pagoda while he failed.

However, he recovered when he later learned from Meng Han that the first few people who entered the Heaven Traversing Pagoda had the difficulty of the tests reduced.

Lei Hong was the third person to enter the Heaven Traversing Pagoda.

As such, the difficulty of the tests was reduced by 10%.

In his opinion, he would have successfully obtained the Heaven Protection Talisman during his first attempt as well if the difficulty of the tests was reduced for him.

“I was too reckless previously…” The old man sighed and shook his head as he checked his internal injuries.

“Although the injuries aren’t severe, it’ll take more than 100 years for them to fully heal… Now that I have a certain understanding of the tests in the pagoda, even if the tests are different, the essence will still be the same.

I was very close to success previously.

With my experience, I’ll be able to successfully obtain the talisman when I enter the pagoda after recovering from my injuries…” the old man muttered to himself, sounding rather confident at the end of his words.

… Meanwhile, a group of World supreme powerhouses from the Three Upper Worlds who were on par with Lei Hong were also waiting for their injuries to heal before entering the Heaven Traversing Pagoda again to obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman.

After that, they would do their best to become a level-seven supreme powerhouse.

Apart from that, after learning about Lei Hong’s breakthrough, many weaker World supreme powerhouses were even more determined to grow stronger so they could obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman first.

Even the Saints in the Outer Boundary grew restless when they learned about Lei Hong’s breakthrough.

However, the most restless of them all was Fang Yi Fan from the Transcendence World.

After all, he had obtained the Heaven Protection Talisman a little earlier than Lei Hong.

He had been preparing for the next step, but he was still uncertain about facing the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation.
