1543: The Twins' Triumph

The Twins' Triumph

~HISS~0

The twins hissed out loudly, the sound traveling far and wide.

The sound of the storm was not enough to suppress it, and it was as if the very air was carrying to according to their commands. 

Every person that was within a thousand kilometer radius of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation could hear the hiss. It was as if the hiss had directly been whispered into their ears!

~SHUA~

A moment after that, Lin Mu and the Saintess felt dense energy fluctuations coming from the center of the storm. They were different than the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation's energy fluctuations and were similar to the Yin Yang Twin Serpents energy fluctuations.

"What are they—" but before Lin Mu could speak, he saw something that left him stunned.

~WOONG~

Two pillars of light rose up from the center of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation, one black and one white.

The pillars of light directly pierced through the dark clouds, deflecting the lightning and blocking the winds. 

~HUM~HUM~HUM~

But that was merely the start as a few seconds later, the pillars started to move. They started to revolve forming a spiraling pillar that spun in the opposite direction to that of the cyclone.

"Is that…" Lin Mu narrowed down on the energy coming from the black and white pillars, identifying them.

"Pure Yang and Pure Yin Qi…" The Saintess muttered.

The two types of Qi were very difficult to refine and obtain, as they were directly composed of all the Mortal and Heavenly elements. One could find Yin and Yang in each of the elements and they had their aspects to it.

This commonness was what made it difficult to extract the source of the two types of Qis. 

Those that could do it were those with a high affinity to it, or those who were extremely skilled.

In the case of the Yin Yang Twin Serpents, it could be said that they had both the factors within them.

It now looked like there was not one but two cyclones raging in the area.

First was the cyclone formed by the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation and the second was the cycle formed by the spinning Pure Yin and Yang Qi.

One cycle spun in the clockwise direction and the other spun in the anticlockwise direction. 

It formed a great contrast, and the pressure exuding from their mix was unlike anything Lin Mu or any other cultivator in the Blood Strewn Plains had felt before. They were strong enough that it could be clearly felt for a thousand kilometers, and faintly felt for several thousand kilometers.

And if one's cultivation base was high enough and their senses sharp, they might even be able to sense it tens of thousands kilometer away!

If one looked at the two storms from the top, they would see another scene though.

They would see a swirling mass of clouds, that was filled with lightning while in the center of it they would see a circle. The circle was half black and half white and continually moved. 

At the same time within the circle, one might see two smaller circles that were moving. They too were white and black, and it looked like the different halves of the circle were chasing after these dots.

But to a cultivator, this had taken the form of a symbol they should know very well.

It was none other than the symbol of Taiji!

"Storm Assaults The Unity, While The Taiji Prevails…" The Saintess recited an old poem.

~RUMBLE~

It didn't take long for the inner cyclone to grow bigger. It started to press outwards and caused the storm made by the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation to reduce in density.

"They're… Eating away the storm?" Lin Mu understood.

He said 'eating' and not dispersing since that was exactly what the twins were doing.

Through their link, Lin Mu could sense the twins' bellies being filled with massive amounts of energies. The constant output of the Pure Yin and Yang Qi was not something that could be maintained otherwise.

Thus in order to keep that up, they were directly taking it away from the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation itself!

It was something possible only for the twins, as consuming Extreme Yang and Extreme Yin like that would be the same as committing suicide.

"The Tribulation is getting weaker." The Saintess spoke as a smile appeared under her veil.

Lin Mu observed it with his spatial perception and saw the Spatial Tears reducing as well. 

'If they are reducing, that means the power of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation is falling as well…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

After all, in order to keep the fabric of space torn open like that, one needed a lot of energy. Even if Lin Mu could do the same, it was only for a short time and not for hours on end, like what the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation was doing.

Thus if the size of the Spatial tears was falling, it meant that the energy of the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation was also falling, which brought the tribulation closer to its end.

"So they've found their way. The Tribulation should end soon enough." Xukong finally spoke.

He too had been observing everything without missing a part. 

After all, even for he who had lived for countless years, a Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation was still rare. In his long life, he had not seen it more than a few tens of times.

That just proved how rare it was even for the Void Weaver Spider Xukong.

As for the Saintess, she had only heard about the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation and had never actually seen one herself. 

~SHUA~

Finally, after an entire hour passed, the size of the Yin and Yang pillar had grown to over a hundred kilometers wide!

At the same time, the size of the storm had fallen to less than a kilometer in size. 

~HUALA~

As if a dam had been broken, the storm was torn apart and the tribulation had been ended!
