As time passed...

  The Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning continued to strike down, turning the void into a sea of lightning, yet Xiao Ming and Feng Xianhuang remained unharmed.

  One relied on the Chaos Body, operating the Immortal Divine Wood Art, and the innate talent of Divine Breath to automatically circulate his cultivation method and heal his injuries.

  The other relied on the ancient phoenix bloodline, with the innate ability to undergo Nirvana in flames, and her own understanding of the intent of fire.

  Using the special Nirvana fire intent to heal her injuries.

  Although this intent was not as powerful as true Nirvana, it was sufficient to heal the wounds on her body.

  Thus, neither of them used their divine powers to counterattack the Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning; instead, they quietly comprehended this power under the bombardment of the thunder.

  At first...

  Feng Xianhuang felt a bit uncomfortable, always feeling like Xiao Ming was pressing against her, making her so embarrassed she could explode.

  But as small arcs of lightning began to flicker on Xiao Ming's body, it seemed he had gained some insight.

  Only then did Feng Xianhuang take a deep breath, adjust her mindset, and enter a state of comprehension.

  If she hesitated any longer, she might miss this opportunity.

  After all, in her previous life, before breaking through to the Saint Realm, she had never experienced any tribulation lightning.

  She had no chance to comprehend the power of thunder.

  By the time her cultivation broke through to the Saint Realm, her own power had almost solidified, and she could only focus on specializing in fire.

  But reborn in this life...

  She already had a strong understanding of the path of fire, and if she could also comprehend the power of thunder, it would be a qualitative change for her!

  This was an opportunity not to be missed, a chance to change her destiny!

  With this thought...

  Feng Xianhuang quickly entered the state and began to comprehend the Purple Heaven Thunder.

  Using the fusion of breath and divine powers, Feng Xianhuang gained a moment of enlightenment, greatly enhancing her own comprehension.

  Recalling all the tribulation lightning she had experienced in the past and the Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning surrounding her now, a new understanding emerged in her heart.

  The phoenix bloodline within her began to show traces of purple.

  Tiny arcs of lightning flickered on her body as well, making Feng Xianhuang's true phoenix fire increasingly strange.

  No one knew how much time had passed.

  As the thunderclouds above gathered the final wave of lightning, it struck fiercely on Xiao Ming and Feng Xianhuang, and a terrifying intent erupted from Xiao Ming's body.

  A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

  Inside Xiao Ming's Cave Heaven, bolts of lightning flickered, clearly the Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning.

  Not only did Xiao Ming successfully pass the Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning, but he also tempered his physical body and Cave Heaven, causing his cultivation to soar directly to the fifth level of the Cave Heaven Realm!

  Moreover, he mastered the intent of thunder and successfully comprehended a thunder technique!

  His strength underwent a tremendous transformation.

  Of course...

  The benefits were not exclusive to Xiao Ming; Feng Xianhuang also gained immensely this time.

  At the moment when the intent of thunder erupted from Xiao Ming, a similar intent burst forth from Feng Xianhuang.

  The phoenix bloodline within her was tinged with purple, and in her Cave Heaven, besides the rampant true phoenix fire, terrifying Purple Heaven Tribulation Lightning was also wildly rampaging.

  It was evident.

  This time, with the help of Xiao Ming's breath fusion and her previous life's foundation as a seventh-level Emperor, Feng Xianhuang also successfully comprehended the intent of thunder and created a thunder technique.

  Her cultivation also reached the fifth level of the Cave Heaven Realm at this moment.

  On par with Xiao Ming.

  This made Feng Xianhuang open her eyes in surprise, feeling that she had gained a great advantage this time.

  But before she could smile, her face suddenly froze, her gaze fixed stiffly on her chest.

  Because at this moment, she felt a pair of large hands pressing against her chest.

  And they were quite restless...

  This caused a booming sound in Feng Xianhuang's mind, her whole body stiffening in Xiao Ming's embrace.

  Not only was Feng Xianhuang stunned, but Xiao Ming was also bewildered.

  What the heck, he was just comprehending during the tribulation, so why did Feng Xianhuang end up in his arms?

  Is this a dream?

  But this bouncy feeling, this warmth, doesn’t seem like a dream!

  In the distance, Yun Ling and Su Qingyue were also completely stunned by this scene.

  Passing the tribulation with ease was one thing, but to show affection during it?

  That's too much!

  "Xiao Ming!!"

  Just as Xiao Ming was trying to determine if it was an illusion, Feng Xianhuang let out a sharp cry and quickly broke free from his embrace.

  She turned around, her face flushed, glaring at him.

  She wished she could swallow Xiao Ming whole.

  She thought she had gained an advantage this time, but she ended up being the one at a loss.

  "Don't get excited!"

  "I opened my eyes and found you in my arms, I don't know what happened..."

  Seeing Feng Xianhuang about to go berserk, Xiao Ming innocently defended himself, making Feng Xianhuang so frustrated she almost spat blood.

  She couldn't possibly say...

  That she had climbed into his arms on her own, could she? How would she hold her head high in the future?

  But...

  If she accused Xiao Ming of coming over to hug her, it would reflect poorly on her as an Empress.

  So...

  Although Feng Xianhuang was full of grievances, she couldn't angrily scold Xiao Ming as a shameless scoundrel; she could only take a deep breath and say calmly.

  "Let's pretend nothing happened just now; we were probably out of control during our enlightenment."

  "Of course..."

  "You better forget what happened, or if you dare tease me about it, I'll beat you to a pulp."

  After saying that...

  Before Xiao Ming could respond.

  Feng Xianhuang flew towards Su Qingyue and Yun Ling, seemingly to hide her embarrassment and frustration.

  Leaving Xiao Ming still somewhat bewildered.

  "This woman is acting too strange."

  "She let me off so easily after being touched by the thunder and pressed against by the sniper..."

  "Could it be she really came into my arms on her own?"

  Thinking of this...

  Xiao Ming couldn't help but twitch his mouth, then deduced the reason.

  It must have been for comprehending the thunder technique.

  But...

  For an Empress to make such a sacrifice to comprehend the thunder technique shows that he holds a significant place in Feng Xianhuang's heart.

  Otherwise, why would she do this?

  It seems this Empress junior sister is about to fall for him.

  Thinking of this...

  A smile appeared on Xiao Ming's lips, and he couldn't help but feel a bit pleased inside.

  From fire fusion to breath fusion, and now to physical contact, their distance was getting closer and closer.

  Who knows, one day it might go from zero distance to negative distance.

  Hehehe...

  "Brother Xiao Ming, are you hurt?"

  Just as Xiao Ming was thinking about having negative distance contact with this Empress junior sister in the future.

  Su Qingyue flew over, her face flushed, her voice soft and tender as she asked.

  "It's just a tribulation, how could I get hurt?"

  Xiao Ming waved his hand, looking spirited.

  "Yes, Brother Xiao Ming is so strong, he definitely wouldn't get hurt."

  "But..."

  "Seeing Brother Xiao Ming hugging Sister Xianhuang just now, Qingyue felt a bit hurt..."

  Seeing Xiao Ming like this, Su Qingyue felt a bit jealous.

  Her pouting lips and aggrieved expression made Xiao Ming find it hard not to laugh.

  "This little girl is jealous."

  Seeing through Su Qingyue's thoughts, Xiao Ming pinched her nose.

  Then, with a face full of affection, he hugged her and patted her on the back.

  "Don't be jealous."

  "You will always be my precious childhood sweetheart, Brother Xiao Ming will never neglect you."

  With a pinch, a hug, and a pat, along with these words.

  Su Qingyue felt like she had gone from hell to heaven in an instant, almost laughing like a fool in Xiao Ming's arms.

  "Brother Xiao Ming, you're so good..."

  In a murmur, Su Qingyue lay in Xiao Ming's arms, a happy smile on her face.

  At this moment.

  Even if Xiao Ming asked her to die, she would feel it was worth it.

  "Scoundrel!!"

  Seeing Xiao Ming in the sky hugging Su Qingyue, Feng Xianhuang gritted her teeth.

  One moment he was taking advantage of her, the next he was with Su Qingyue.

  Utterly despicable!

  Meanwhile, Yun Ling watched with envy.

  She wished...

  Xiao Ming would pinch her nose and hug her, giving her a playful pat.

  That would be bliss.

  Boom boom boom...

  Just as everyone had different thoughts, a rumbling erupted in the void, and the space above began to distort.

  This made Xiao Ming and the others focus their attention.

  The secret realm exit... is about to open!
