?Scarlet flew north, away from any human settlement to break through to the Immortal realm. She had fought through her Mental Demon, so all that was left was for her to deal with the Lightning Tribulation.

For that, Scarlet went to the wasteland, way in the north where no humans lived. There in a small crater, where she had gone through her rebirth,?she was going to break through the Immortal realm as well.

Alex and a few of the others arrived in a large ship and stood far enough away to watch, for the first time in their entire life, see someone break through to the Immortal realm.

Scarlet had been holding back her breakthrough for a while to reach this place and now that she was finally here, she let go of it.

Immediately, dark clouds formed in the sky, sparking with lighting inside, quickly turning the entire area dark with them.

The atmosphere was surreal and the aura chaotic. The heaven seemed to gather overhead, scaring all the humans that stood on the deck of the ship.

“So this is what a tribulation lightning cloud looks like,” Qiu Jianhong said meekly.

“The aura… it scares me,” Ren Guanting spoke.

“This is very much scarier than the time I broke through to the Saint realm,” Alex said softly. “It’s as if the heaven is purposefully trying to stop you and not just because it’s something it must do.”

“Your Majesty, did you give Her Majesty the lightning pills?” Tan Yang asked. “That should help her a lot during the tribulation.”

“I thought so too,” Alex said. “And I offered it to her, but she claimed that she didn’t need it.” He turned back around toward the people. “Don’t worry, she has already once broken through to the Immortal realm, so she knows what she is doing. Have some faith in her.”

Everyone slowly nodded and looked to the front as the first tribulation lightning made its arrival.

The giant bolt of hot white lightning with an aura of purple surrounding it flew down into the desert where Scarlet unfurled her giant red wings and took the brunt of the attack.

The sudden boom that followed seemed the rock the world with even the air forcing Alex and the rest to step back. They had remained nearly 2 kilometers away in the sky, and somehow even at this distance, the lightning bolt was giving them quite the shock.

“That… was strong,” one of the elders said behind Alex. .𝒎

“Just 2 more realms and this is what I have to face in my next breakthrough?” Zhou Linfan asked, staring at the sky. “I will die.”

“I’m sure you aren’t meant to face the lightning with Saint Qi at all,” Alex said. “At this point, all of Scarlet’s Saint Qi has evolved to become stronger. While they aren’t at the level of Immortal realm, they are much closer.”

Alex remembered the madman from the Northern Continent who was halfway done with his Immortal realm breakthrough. Even without being an Immortal, his Qi was so much stronger that not a single one of the elders or a group of them could defeat him.

“As you survive the lightning, your Qi gets stronger too,” Alex said slowly. “Allowing you to be much stronger and ready for the next lightning bolt.”

As he said that, the sky rumbled with the heavens preparing the next bolt.

Alex looked at Scarlet, worrying slightly. Even if he knew she had gone through this once already, he still couldn’t help but feel the need to worry.

After all, with the lightning tribulation in progress, there was only one of two outcomes.

Either Scarlet was going to become an Immortal, or she was going to die.

While there was the chance of her becoming a False Immortal by failing, because she was a Heavenly beast, the heavens would not be much lenient on her.

The second purple lightning struck down from heaven with a resounding book and this time Scarlet let out a phoenix cry before it even hit her.

A fiery shield of multicolor appeared before her, bearing the burden of the lightning bolt, completely stopping it.

She stood taller once the second lightning bolt disappeared. She looked to the sky, ready for more.

When the third lightning strike fell, Scarlet created the fiery shield again, protecting her from the lightning bolt once again. However, this time the shield hadn’t done its job as well as it had the last time.

She needed to change her tactics for the next one.

As the 4th lightning bolt prepared to fall, Scarlet flapped her wings just once. Nearly a hundred different feathers of colors ranging from yellow to red to purple flew around Scarlet, forming a whirlpool of feathers around him.

When the lightning bolt finally fell, the feathers instantly burned with phoenix fire and combined into a large, singular fire that took the shape of a burning phoenix and flew into the sky.

The attack struck the lightning, dissipating it even before it could fall all the way through.

The people watching on the ship cheered for Scarlet, even though she couldn’t hear them. They were happy to see their Queen doing well, but this wasn’t all. There was much more to be done now.

The feathers flew around Scarlet again as she prepared the same attack as the last time, known as the Phoenix Feather Storm.

The attack flew into the sky and struck the 5th lightning bolt,but this time it was the Lightning bolt that destroyed it instead, but had difficulty doing so.

The remaining energy in the bolt was not even as strong as the first bolt, and that Scarlet had handled with just her body.

When the 6th lightning bolt was ready to fall, Scarlet used both the fiery shield and the Phoenix Feather Storm at the same time.

The two techniques together managed to stop the lightning bolt from falling all the way through.

Scarlet breathed somewhat roughly. While only 6 lightning bolts had fallen, she had to use multiple techniques, back to back, causing her a bit of trouble.

She was still mostly fine, however, and could continue easily.

Only, for the 7th lightning bolt, she couldn’t do with the Phoenix Feather Storm or the Fiery Shield. She needed something stronger and better.

Scarlet took a deep breath and used a technique. It was a difficult technique to use as it required some time. But thankfully, there was enough time between the tribulation lightning that she had the time for it. .

Instantly, 8 different balls of Phoenix fire appeared around Scarlet, each of which caused a tempest of hot air to move around it. It wasn’t just hot air, but heat reaching temperature so high that it caused the air to ripple, creating mirages all around.

Scarlet quickly became the center of a tremendous sandstorm as sparkling shards of glass formed from the melting sand that were quickly cooled down once they buffeted outward.

Alex and the rest quickly parted the sandstorm carefully and looked inside.

The balls of fire had now transformed into certain egg-like shapes and they continuously rotated around Scarlet herself who burned with Phoenix fire.

And then the 7th lightning bolt fell.
