Long Chen finished absorbing the core while the weather outside kept getting worse and worse. However, as they were underground, the tribulation couldn't get to him.
The longer that Tribulation couldn't reach him, the worse it became. It was also intentional from the Demon King's part. If he wanted, he could've gone outside and faced the Tribulation, but he didn't. It was as if he wanted to have it be stronger, so he could experience the peak Tribulation.
For a human, the Tribulation wasn't just a challenge that tested if they were worthy to pass through a layer. It was also something that made them stronger. The stronger that tribulation was, the stronger they were going to be when they came through the Tribulation without being hurt.
Long Chen glanced at the dead body of the White Tiger King. For some reason, he felt like leaving the body here like that was a waste.
He kept the body back in the Ancient Ring before finally looking at Long Tian.
"You have something to say?"
