Lind looked a bit ragged after facing his progenitor tribulation. He had thought the battle was over but the boiling black clouds told another story.
"What is it waiting for?" The pressure did not seem to be building but holding steady.
[We do not need lightning to judge you, True Lord of Dragons.] A chorus of voices suddenly entered his head. He could not find a source but lances of pure elemental Qi began to descend from the clouds!
From all 18 pillars, figures emerged but Lind narrowed his eyes. The ground was blasted and destroyed from his tribulation but the feet of the figures did not disturb even a single stone.
He tried to perceive the pillars but his Talents did not respond.
[You have walked through the fire of a cultivator but now you must answer to us.] Lind slowly felt fear as he realized what the figures had to be. Spirits of Heaven and Earth!
