With the commencement of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation the topography of the area changed rapidly.
Deep ravines were carved out by the sharp winds, while the lightning blasted apart mountains.
Lin Mu watched it all with a mix of dread and awe, while feeling the immense power that was contained within the tribulation. It was certainly the strongest tribulation he had ever seen and easily exceeded the destructiveness of the Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation he had overcome before.
The size of the storm also kept on increasing and had reached two hundred kilometer wide at this point.
Lin Mu and the Saintess had to retreat several times now and were far enough that the border of the Sky Parasol could be seen by them.
"If it exceeds beyond this, will the Sky Parasol be affected?" Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.
They clearly had a Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation to worry about, Lin Mu didn't wish for Transcendent Immortals to join the fray as well.
"It should not expand beyond this." The Saintess shook her head. "It's energy has reached the peak, you should be able to tell it too now if you focus." She explained.
Lin Mu narrowed his eyes and used the Spatial Perception with his full focus. When he did that, he could see the Dao Traces and Dao Insights that were dispersed in the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation as well as the spatial tear that had appeared.
The tear was also hidden behind the storm and could not be seen by others. But to Lin Mu it was as clear as the day. And upon observing the tears, he realized that the Saintess's words were true.
"The Tears aren't expanding any more. The energy has really reached its peak." Lin Mu muttered.
~BOOM~
A few moments after that, several lightning bolts struck the center of the storm while tearing winds assaulted it at the same time.
"Ugh!" Lin Mu felt the emotions of the Yin Yang Twin serpents change rapidly.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
They were now feeling pain!
And the pain wasn't just any pain, but intense enough for even Lin Mu to feel it through their link.
"They're injured!" Lin Mu said with great worry.
"They have to bear it. This is simply the cost of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation." The Saintess spoke, trying to hold back as well.
She too could sense that the twins were injured and also the might of the Tribulation.
~BOOM~BOOM~BOOM~
But this was merely the start of it all, as the storm was not going to let the twins rest.
It struck them incessantly with lightning bolts and winds that could rip flesh.
Lin Mu felt every time the twins were struck by them, as well as the variance in their pain.
Minute after minute passed by like this, during which Lin Mu felt horrible. He wished that it was him there, but knew that it was not something possible. He could only sit here and watch the twins suffer from the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation.
Lin Mu simply gritted his teeth and held on, watching as the Tribulation progressed.
Unknowingly an entire hour had passed by like this while the twins endured the tribulation. It was by this time that Lin Mu realized something.
'The twins… they might be getting injured, but their vitality isn't weakening…' Lin Mu realized.
It was a surprising revelation as even he would have experienced something like that after that much damage. But for the twins, it was as if their vitality had stayed the same.
Normally, a part of a creatures vitality would be consumed if they were injured. More vitality would be consumed in order to heal themselves as well. The worse the injury, the more vitality would be needed.
There were even injuries that could continually drain one's vitality and eventually kill them.
The Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation could be considered similar to that, as it would continually strike a cultivator and injure them till they died. As for how long it took for them to die, it depended on their endurance, will and cultivation base.
With the twins being as special as they were, they seemed to be doing the best.
Lin Mu continued to watch as another hour passed by.
"They're still the same…" Lin Mu said in disbelief.
This time it wasn't just him that was surprised, but even the Saintess was the same.
The only thing was that her expression could not be seen due to the veil. But in reality, she was more surprised than Lin Mu.
She knew just how terrifying a Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation really was and the consequences it could have.
'If a Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation happens in a low ranked immortal world, there is a high chance of the world's laws collapsing and the world dying as well. I think it might be for the best that were are on a world that is close to its own ascension…' The Saintess thought to herself.
She wondered if it really was fate that Lin Mu and the twins arrived on this world.
Lin Mu had been sensing the change in the twins through their link, and knew by now the twins were somewhat used to the constant injuries. They were healing at the same time and were trying to keep a balance between the two.
They had divided the work too.
One twin would bear the majority of the damage for one strike, while the other would take the time to heal. They would switch and repeat this, keeping their condition on a strange equilibrium.
Such a method of surviving a Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation was something that would not be possible for anyone else. It was a method that was unique to only the Yin Yang Twin Serpents!
~HISS~
And after another hour had passed by, Lin Mu and the Saintess felt a loud hiss.
It felt full of anger and it was none other than the twins lashing back!
They've had enough!
