“Drink!”
After Tan Yun let out a loud shout, he gritted his teeth and released the remaining two-tenths of his spiritual power from the spirit pool, forming a spiritual power armor on his surface!
At the same time, with a single thought from Tan Yun, the primordial ice flame took the form of flickering flames in the void, instantly converging to create a thirty-zhang ice mountain before him!
"Crash!"
The ice mountain suddenly shattered under the attack of the last colossal dragon-like heavenly tribulation, and after just a moment of pause, its intensity weakened by thirty percent and crashed into Tan Yun!
"Boom—"
After the faint golden spiritual power armor on Tan Yun’s body collapsed, the power of the dragon-like heavenly tribulation suddenly reduced to fifty percent, ruthlessly and violently striking Tan Yun!
"Crack, crack—"
"Puff!"
With the clear sound of bones cracking, blood sprayed, and blood mist filled the air, Tan Yun's twenty-four ribs in his legs, arms, and chest instantly turned to dust!
At this moment, Tan Yun was in an extremely tragic state. He had lost his limbs, his nasal bone, and even the skin on his back had peeled off, revealing a bloody skull as flesh fell from his face!
"Whoosh—"
A whistling sound of air filled Tan Yun's ears, and as he felt dizzy, he was brutally blasted over a hundred miles, soaring over the raging waves of the lake, and "bang" embedded into the cliff wall of a towering peak!
"Drip, drip!"
From the cracked crevices of the cliff, streams of blood slowly seeped out, falling into the void and dissipating in the fierce wind.
Tan Yun was unaware of whether he was alive or dead!
At this moment, the vast dark clouds disappeared, and the bright universe and blazing sun shone in the sky.
Only the mountains surrounding the lake, scarred and battered, told the tale of Tan Yun's terrible heavenly tribulation!
Proving that the heavenly tribulation had indeed descended!
"Master... Master!!"
The heavenly slayer demon ape, radiating the aura of the fifth level initial stage, rushed over with the Exquisite Holy Tower in its right hand, resembling a towering six-hundred-zhang purple-black mountain, hovering above the lake!
Its giant eyes revealed a sorrowful expression, and massive tears fell from the sky into the lake, splashing up in droplets!
Previously, when Tan Yun was undergoing tribulation, the heavenly slayer demon ape had broken through from the fifth level initial stage to the growth stage.
Throughout Tan Yun's tribulation, it had watched from afar, burying its worries deep in its heart to keep Tan Yun focused!
"Buzz—"
The void rippled like water as it released its beastly senses, spreading at the speed of light. When it discovered Tan Yun embedded in the cliff wall a hundred miles away, it flew through the air, traversing the void, and hovering at the edge of the cliff.
"Master, I'll get you out right now! Hold on!" The heavenly slayer demon ape was frantic, its massive claws digging into the cliff as it forcefully pried the rock that trapped Tan Yun out of the cliff!
"Master!" Upon seeing the tragic state of Tan Yun in its grasp, the heavenly slayer demon ape let out a heart-wrenching cry.
Tan Yun opened his heavy eyelids, looking at the heavenly slayer demon ape, and weakly stammered, "I... I'm fine... Find my Qiankun Ring now, and then put me in the Second Level of the Holy Tower."
"Okay!" The heavenly slayer demon ape hurriedly leaped into the ravine, found the Qiankun Ring, then placed the Exquisite Holy Tower on the ground, and finally put Tan Yun inside the Second Level of the Holy Tower, placing the Qiankun Ring beside him.
As Tan Yun entered the tower, the Spirit Transformation Array activated on its own, and a torrent of rich spiritual energy flowed into him without the need for him to breathe.
Afterward, the heavenly slayer demon ape closed the tower door, and suddenly, the power of time and space within the tower intertwined and fused, forming an independent space-time.
"Whoosh, whoosh—"
Tan Yun lay back in the tower, breathing weakly and rapidly, as the lost limbs, ribs, and flesh from fallen bones began to regenerate at a visible speed...
