While Yale's incarnation created that world surrounded by light, more than a thousand years passed since Yale's group departed from the world where Yale's disciple was facing the Life and Death Trials.

After the Life and Death Trials ended, Yale noticed that his incarnation didn't come back, so he guessed that his plan was a success and just waited for his incarnation to return with news someday.

Those thousand years had been relatively calm since there weren't too many people who would trouble a group with three Essence Gods.

Those too weak were just seeking death, and those stronger usually had a good understanding of the factions, so they wouldn't act without verifying the other party's identity.

Of course, those allied with the invaders would try to seek problems at any chance if they discovered them, but they were invaders, so they were a minority even counting their allies, and there was no way they could find Yale's group easily.

It wasn't difficult to look for a fixed place like Yale's world, but tracking someone traveling for the universe wasn't easy, and it was also for that reason that the Battle God left that envelope to Yale.

As Yale guessed, it wasn't a normal itinerary of travel. It was a specially crafted object that would register all the places the Battle God visited since the item was created.

Thus, it was perfect for tracking someone, and Yale's group had been going to the place where the item signaled the Battle God's presence, but it wasn't somewhere near to them.

They didn't stop too much, so the time that happened in the Storage space had been far lower, but Wyba still managed to become a Law Master.

The power of Yale's group also increased, but no one tried to become an Essence God in any Essence unless they didn't need a tribulation.

The tribulations needed preparation, and it wasn't a good idea to face them while traveling across the universe.

Moreover, when training, a sudden inspiration could accelerate the progress of fusing the Essence with the soul and trigger the tribulation, so they didn't take risks.

Yale managed to become an Essence God on the Essences created by the Battle God because he didn't need a tribulation, and just with some battles and his understanding, it hadn't been difficult reaching that level.

However, he was also forced to stop training the rest of Essences after mastering them to avoid triggering the tribulations.

Due to the universes being separated, Yale shouldn't have noticed what his incarnation did, but at the same moment that the world surrounded by light was created, he stopped, and the other three turned back with strange faces.

"Yale, what happened?"

Lina and Yale reached a tacit understanding that practically could let them always know what the other party wanted without needing to speak, but Yale stopping on the way seemed to be something completely without reason.

At that moment, Yale was hearing countless voices on his head, and all of them told the same.

"Ancient Master Liye."

Yale was unable to understand what was happening, but before he could think about it, two different voices reached him.

"Liye."

"Yale."

Yale had been unable to recognize the other voices owners as they were a mess in his head, but the last two were voices that he recognized in an instant.

"My old master and Swordmad... Why am I also hearing them? What is happening?"

His old master was in a different universe while Swordmad was in an unknown place, so he didn't understand why he heard their voices and the reason that their voices were the only ones he recognized.

At that moment, he felt a strange source of energy appearing inside his body. It was pure energy different from the Origin Qi, but Yale couldn't control it at all, and it spread from his body in an instant.

The other three couldn't notice the energy that appeared on Yale's body, but they noticed something else.

Yale had completely fused with the Water Essence and advanced to Essence God.

"Enlightenment? Now? There is no reason for being enlightened, and the tribulation will happen soon."

Lina and the others couldn't understand the situation because they knew very well that Yale wasn't on the verge of making a breakthrough and that he hadn't been training the Water Essence.

Especially Lina, who was the closest to Yale and had the Water Essence as her specialty, knew very well Yale's progress on his training of the Water Essence.

Before they could obtain an answer or ask something else, Yale also advanced to Essence God in the Lightening Essence.

"A second breakthrough to Essence God?"

They knew that the tribulations were fearsome, and it wasn't wise to face two simultaneously. Although they also knew that Yale wouldn't die for mere tribulations, he would suffer quite a bit, and they would lose a lot of time.

Immediately after that, except for the Earth Essence and the Wind Essence, in which Yale only managed to become a Law Master after more than a thousand years of training, the rest of the elemental Essences had all reached the Essence God level.

At that moment, Lina's group was really worried for Yale because although advancing was a huge increase in power, if one died in the tribulation, it would have been for nothing.

Seconds later, Yale became a Law God in Earth and Wind, and before the rest could react, he also mastered the Essences, but it seemed that they didn't fuse with Yale's soul.

"What kind of enlightenment he had to have such a power boost? Fortunately, there is no tribulation for Wind and Earth, or we may face a Meteor Storm..."

The tribulations were related to the mastered Essence, and in the space where there wasn't Earth or Wind, so the options for the tribulation were quite limited.

In fact, all tribulations were far more difficult in outer space, so everyone avoided advancing there.

However, just after Lina spoke, Yale also became an Essence God in Earth and Wind, which were the two elements in which he had less talent and proficiency.

At that moment, the three of them were without words, and not without reason.

After all, they had never heard of someone advancing to Essence God in all the elemental Essences in a single enlightenment.

Even Lina, who had divine talent in all the Essences, couldn't do something like that.

Yale also noticed his own breakthroughs, but there was nothing he could do to stop them as the pure energy wasn't obeying him, and he couldn't avoid mastering the Essences.

However, it seemed that the pure energy didn't have any effect in Laws and Essences related to crafting because Yale hadn't advanced on them at all.

In their travel, he also had Lina teaching him about those crafting Laws and even managed to surpass Lina in the Alchemy Law as he became a Law God, but he wasn't even a Law Master in the others.

After Yale sighed while thinking about how to face so many simultaneous tribulations, an image of a world shining with light appeared in his mind.

At that instant, two universes synchronized, and the memories of Yale and his incarnation complemented each other before the connection was cut again.

"I understand now!"

Joy surfaced in Yale's face, which made him seem like a madman to anyone who knew how many tribulations was about to face.

Before Lina could ask Yale for the reason of his joy, Yale's body started to shine with the same light as the world he had seen, or in other words, with the same pure energy that filled his body.

The energy surpassed the huge capacity of Yale's body and started to leak, but Yale wasn't worried by it at all.

"You all! Come near me! Now!"

Strictly speaking, only someone who wanted to die would near Yale, knowing that he would face so many tribulations, but seeing that Yale shouted them, which was very strange on him, they decided to do as he said.

When the three of them neared Yale enough for the light to touch their bodies, their faces changed at the same moment that they also started to make breakthroughs without stop.

They wanted to ask about what that light was, but they had lost the control of their bodies and could just make breakthroughs that would summon tribulations even if they didn't want to.

Moreover, since they were together, the tribulations would be overlapped, which wasn't a simple sum of strengths.

At that moment, they truly feared for their lives because even Eini, who wasn't an Essence God before that, had already become an Essence God in all the elemental Essences plus Time, Space, Life, and Death.

Thus, there was no way that Lina and Shiba, who were stronger from the start, hadn't reached the same state.

They thought that, fortunately, there wasn't anyone else near them or who knew how many people would have achieved breakthroughs simultaneously.

Soon after they couldn't make any more breakthroughs indicated by the light, a huge pressure appeared on them, showing that a tribulation, which probably even an Origin God wouldn't be able to endure, was about to fall on them.

The other three couldn't avoid but fear the tribulation, but Yale just smiled.

"We don't need a tribulation. Disappear!"

In the outer space, they always spoke with Divine Sense, but although it should have been impossible, they heard clearly the words said by Yale's mouth.

An instant later, the huge pressure disappeared completely.
