The numerous cultivators around Lin Yi shook their heads when they saw him intending to endure the Heavenly Tribulation with his physical body alone. The Eastern Daoist Friend was too confident in his own strength—this was Heavenly Tribulation, after all.
Although the Ascension Tribulation, meant to remove the Otherworldly Aura, was not as mortally perilous as the true Crossing Tribulation—with a nine-in-ten chance of death—it was still extremely dangerous. Many Ascenders relied on formations to weaken the Heavenly Tribulation and in the end were still severely injured, unable to heal in a short amount of time even if they managed to survive the Tribulation and gain some benefits.
Some cultivators, overconfident in their strength and not relying on formations to diminish the Tribulation, even suffered foundational damage, leading to halted progression in their cultivation levels, a cause for immense regret.
