Chapter 32: The Dumbfounded Group Members! Impossible! This is Too Outrageous!

"Boom!"

Above the firmament, the third bolt of Tribulation Lightning crashed down, its might even more terrifying than the previous two.

Yet, Lu Yun remained completely calm in the face of this.

Because just moments ago, not only had he completely digested the Life Origin Power converted from the second bolt of Tribulation Lightning, but he had also found the perfect rhythm for the Star Transformation and the Thunder Origin Talisman to work in tandem.

At this moment, the third bolt of Tribulation Lightning landed on him, failing to cause him the slightest harm, and instead flew into him to be absorbed and refined! Lu Yun seemed to have turned into a black hole, crazily absorbing the powerful Tribulation Lightning!

While his cultivation technique operated on its own, continuously absorbing Life Origin Power, Lu Yun even had time to open the Transmigration Chat Group to watch everyone's recent reactions.

He saw that within the chat group, after he had just sent that sentence, the entire group had fallen into a deathly silence.

After quite a while, the group suddenly exploded.

Ming Xi: "Asc... Ascension? Did I misread that? Lu Yun, are you preparing to ascend to immortality just like that???"

Fang Wenjie: "That's impossible! This isn't real! I don't believe it!"

Lin Yan: "I said it before, we are definitely not playing the same game as Lu Yun!"

Chen Hai: "@Lu Yun, how did you ascend to immortality? Please, teach me!"

Jiang Ye: "You all only noticed that he's about to ascend, but didn't you notice what came after? Ancestral Witch, that's an Ancestral Witch!"

Liu Chongxiao: "Am I seeing things? Ancestral Witches watching? It's only been half a day, and you've actually encountered existences like Ancestral Witches already?!"

Li Pengyu: "Just listen to him brag! Ancestral Witches are existences second only to the Great Sage of the Primordial; how could they possibly be interested in someone just about to ascend to immortality?"

Countless people expressed shock, but quite a few also raised doubts toward Lu Yun.

Regarding this, Lu Yun did not waste his breath explaining, because he discovered that the chat group actually had a photo function.

Thus, he casually sent a photo to the group.

Lu Yun: "Immortal Ascension Tribulation Cloud. jpg"

Lu Yun: "@Zhao Wenhui, thank you for your pill!"

The people in the group who had been arguing just moments ago all went quiet again.

Immediately following—

Zhou Yu: "Holy crap! This really is a Tribulation Cloud!"

Xiao Ling'er: "@Lu Yun, you're actually chatting with us while undergoing your tribulation?!"

Ling Yan: "I'm shocked! @Zhao Wenhui, Old Zhao, that Ascension Pill of yours is actually useful!"

Zhao Wenhui: "??? WTF, how is this possible?!"

Yan Lingwei: "Hm? Old Zhao, you've been exposed! As expected, there's something wrong with your Ascension Pill! You didn't even believe yourself that it could allow someone to ascend to immortality!"

Zhao Wenhui: "Of course I didn't believe it! Because in the world I'm in, no one has ascended to immortality for tens of thousands of years!"

Zhao Wenhui: "Who would have thought this thing could actually make someone ascend?! If I had known, there's no way I would have sold it, ahhhhh..."

Long Ye: "Is there a possibility that you, Old Zhao, took it and couldn't ascend, but Lu Yun took it and could?"

Zhao Wenhui: "Long Ye, what do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that after I've transmigrated for so long, I'm not even as good as a newcomer???"

Lu Yun also felt a bit curious about this question.

And just at this moment, a name he had never seen before suddenly popped up in the chat window. Lin Chen: "I think Long Ye means that the world you are in cannot support ascension, perhaps due to the environment of the world. And Lu Yun being able to ascend is also due to the environment of the world."

Ling Yan: "Holy crap! A prehistoric big shot has appeared!"

Lin Chen: "? How did I become a prehistoric big shot?"

Yan Lingwei: "We are all called ancient big shots now; you joined the group even earlier than us, so doesn't that make you a prehistoric big shot?"

Lin Chen: "... Alright! As long as you're happy!"

Zhao Wenhui: "@Lin Chen, big shot, what did you mean just now?"

Lin Chen: "Exactly what I said! The world you are in likely has some issue with its world rules, which is why no one can ascend! Even if you took that Ascension Pill, it probably wouldn't have been of any use! As for this newcomer Lu Yun, the world he is in has an excellent cultivation environment; even if the Ascension Pill wasn't originally enough to make someone ascend, because of the blessing of the superior environment of the world, he naturally ascended!"

Seeing this, Lu Yun's expression turned to one of sudden realization.

That was right, when he bought that Ascension Pill, the chat group's description said there was a certain probability of being able to ascend to immortality!

In other words, there was also a high probability that one could not ascend!

It was just that because he was in the Great Desolation and possessed a technique like Star Transformation, he had stumbled into actually ascending to immortality! Lu Yun: "@Zhao Wenhui, regardless, I have indeed ascended, so I still want to thank you!"

Zhao Wenhui: "No... no need for thanks! Sob sob, I don't even know what to say anymore!"

Long Ye: "@Zhao Wenhui, look on the bright side, Old Zhao, if it's not meant to be, don't force it!"

Lin Chen: "@Lu Yun, you just said that there are Ancestral Witches watching you undergo your tribulation, is that true?"

Lu Yun glanced at Houtu and the others who were still continuing to roast meat outside the Tribulation Cloud area, and cautiously used the chat group to take a photo.

Seeing that his actions did not cause any reaction from Houtu and the others, Lu Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, he sent the picture to the group.

Lu Yun: "Six Great Ancestral Witches Barbecue. jpg"

Everyone: "..."

Xiao Ling'er: "Hiss! Such terrifying might!"

Jiang Ye: "Even though it's just a picture, I can actually feel the pressure!"

Liu Chongxiao: "Is this the might of the Ancestral Witches of the Great Desolation?"

Lin Chen: "It is indeed very powerful! How did they suddenly take notice of you? Logically speaking, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation is very rare in other worlds, but it should be quite common in the Great Desolation, right?"

Lu Yun: "Speaking of which, I have to thank all the big shots in the group. You gave me so much advice before, allowing me to survive in the pack of demon beasts. Then, while I was roasting meat, I accidentally obtained quite a bit of merit from the Heavenly Dao, which also drew the attention of the Ancestral Witch Houtu."

Lin Yan: "What? You don't mean to say that the Wu Clan member you said you knew before is Houtu!"

Lu Yun: "That's right! I only heard it just now when she was fighting the Demon Race to protect me."

Everyone: "!!!"

Chen Hai: "You... you actually had an Ancestral Witch protect your cultivation?!"

Lu Yun: "Yeah, I originally thought she was just an ordinary member of the Wu Clan, so I listened to everyone's advice and was just about to cultivate after buying some things. But the Great Desolation is so dangerous, so naturally, I had to find someone to help guard me."

Fang Wenjie: "You don't mean to tell us that Houtu not only helped guard you, but also called over a bunch of her brothers to help guard you too!"

Li Pengyu: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! This is just too outrageous!"

Lu Yun: "Of course not! It seems like because of the Heavenly Condemnation Halo, a lot of the Demon Race kept showing up while I was cultivating just now. I think the other Ancestral Witches must have mistakenly thought Houtu was being besieged by the Demon Race, so they rushed over to help!"

Everyone: "..."
