Is this what it feels like to have a backer?

At this moment, Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor were incomparably excited.

This was an Immortal Artifact! They never expected that they would be directly rewarded with an Immortal Artifact, when all they wanted was to borrow one.

What surprised them even more was that Master had already bestowed three Immortal Artifacts upon Red Dust Empress earlier, and now he casually gave out two more. Just how many Immortal Artifacts did their Master still possess?

They dared not imagine, absolutely dared not imagine!

With their emotions surging, both of them gazed at the Immortal Artifacts in their hands, their eyes shining. With such a treasure, their upcoming Undergoing Tribulation would be stable.

Zhong Qing looked at the newly accepted Emperor Realm Disciples and felt that, in addition to providing him with a significant boost after they Undergoing Tribulation, their potential value deserved to be explored.

After pondering for a moment, he said to the three of them, "After you all Undergoing Tribulation, the three of you can contact your other Emperor Realm friends with whom you are on good terms. If anyone is willing to become my Disciple, after I have assessed them, qualified individuals can become my Named Disciple."

These words caused a slight stir in the hearts of Red Dust Empress, Ancient Emperor, and Dust Emperor.

Although they did not know why their Master wanted to accept so many Disciples, this was the first command Master had given them, so they naturally had to carry it out perfectly.

Moreover, to become Master's Disciple was an unimaginable honor, and an immense Opportunity.

This was undoubtedly a good assignment.

"We respectfully obey Master's command!"

After the three bid farewell to Zhong Qing.

Along the way.

Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor still felt a sense of disbelief as they examined the Immortal Artifacts in their hands.

Finally, the two of them cupped their hands towards Red Dust Empress simultaneously.

"Our Opportunity today is entirely due to Senior Sister's help. Your great kindness cannot be repaid. If Senior Sister has any instructions in the future, just give the word, and even if it means going through fire and water, we will not hesitate!"

Red Dust Empress shook her head and smiled, "Now that we are all Master's Disciples, why are you two Junior Brothers so polite?"

"To be honest, without you, I would not have had the chance to become Master's Disciple either."

"We should be mutually achieving, rather."

Dust Emperor shook his head, "Without Senior Sister, how could we have come into contact with an Immortal-like existence such as Master? Regardless, we can only forever engrave Senior Sister's kindness in our hearts and repay it another day!"

Upon hearing this, Red Dust Empress couldn't help but recall her journey with Zhong Qing in the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm.

She sighed inwardly: Master's existence, how could his upper limit be merely that of an Immortal?

However, she did not elaborate further on this matter.

They had only followed Master for a short time. One day, they would naturally understand that Master was an unimaginably profound existence.

As her thoughts drifted, Red Dust Empress slowly said, "You two Junior Brothers should find a place to Undergoing Tribulation first!"

"Senior Sister will be your Protector by your side."

"After you have passed the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, we will then carry out Master's command."

"In that case, we trouble Senior Sister!"

As the three spoke, their bodies moved, and they instantly vanished from their original spot.

When they reappeared, they were already in the boundless Void Realm.

Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor each sat cross-legged in a section of the Void Realm, their Qi wantonly released, inviting the arrival of the Lightning Tribulation.

If it were before, they naturally would not have dared to provoke the Emperor Tribulation to descend. However, now that they possessed Immortal Artifacts and had their Senior Sister as a Protector by their side, they firmly believed that the so-called Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations would no longer be an obstacle to their progress.

"Rumble…"

As the two of them released their Qi.

The Lightning Tribulation reappeared, with tribulation clouds stretching for millions of miles.

The terrifying destructive Qi emanating from the horrific lightning shook the surroundings.

The Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations descended as scheduled.

However, Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor each held an Immortal Artifact above their heads.

No matter how fierce the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations were, or what kind of world-destroying might they exuded, the two of them remained unmoving beneath the Immortal Artifacts.

Thus, after an unknown amount of time, the tribulation clouds dissipated, and creation was reborn.

Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor received the baptism of the Golden Lotus of Creation, and the Qi on their bodies became increasingly terrifying.

In the end, two thunderous roars were heard.

In the world, two more Second Tribulation Emperor Realm powerhouses emerged!

The two of them looked at the changes in their bodies, feeling somewhat incredulous.

Although they had anticipated that this Undergoing Tribulation would not be too difficult, the ease of the process still far exceeded their imagination.

"Is this what it feels like to have a powerful backer?"

"Awesome!"

Ancient Emperor felt the surging power within his body, feeling refreshed and invigorated, with joy written all over his face.

Dust Emperor, beside him, was equally moved and excited.

"Only today do I truly know myself!"

"I only regret not having met my esteemed Master sooner, having lived hundreds of thousands of years in vain."

...

While Ancient Emperor and Dust Emperor were in high spirits and full of ambition.

Within the Domain Lords Mansion, Zhong Qing felt two immense waves of cultivation returning to his body.

"Is this Emperor Realm cultivation? How vast!"

"I wonder what Realm this returned cultivation will allow me to reach?"

The cultivation of a Two Tribulation Great Emperor was beyond imagination, far more than what Zhong Qing had received and absorbed before.

His mind was somewhat excited, and he immediately entered seclusion to absorb and convert this vast cultivation.

"Rumble…"

Accompanied by the rumbling of Qi and blood within his body!

Zhong Qing's cultivation soared at a visible rate.

Originally at Great Saint Second Heaven, he instantly Breakthrough to the Third Heaven!

In the blink of an eye, he reached the Fourth Heaven.

Great Saint Five Heavens!

...

Great Saint Sixfold Heaven!

...

Great Saint Seventh Heaven!

...

Great Saint Eighth Heaven!

...

Great Saint Ninth Heaven!

This cultivation Breakthrough was practically breaking through a minor Realm every few breaths. Before long, he had Breakthrough to Great Saint Ninth Heaven!

However, as his cultivation reached Great Saint Ninth Heaven, the magical power within his body was already exhausted, making it impossible to support his Breakthrough to the next Realm.

This scene made Zhong Qing's mouth twitch.

Although going from Great Saint Second Heaven to Great Saint Ninth Heaven was undoubtedly a rapid improvement.

However, this was cultivation transformed from two One Tribulation Great Emperors advancing to Two Tribulation Great Emperors.

Logically speaking, a one-to-one return from two Two Tribulation Great Emperors should have been enough to help him Breakthrough to Two Tribulation.

But now, let alone Two Tribulation, he hadn't even reached Great Saint Peak.

Zhong Qing once again realized how terrifying the cultivation required for his Breakthrough truly was.

Fortunately, after so many cultivation advancements, he had already accepted the fact that his Breakthroughs were difficult.

Moreover, his own strength being slightly stronger than his Realm was also a decent comfort.

"I wonder if the three of them will bring me different surprises?"

Zhong Qing looked at the sky, muttering to himself.

He was somewhat looking forward to how many Emperor Realm Disciples the three of them would find for him.

At his current Realm, ordinary Disciples, even True Disciples, could no longer bring him significant improvements in a short period.

Only existences above the Emperor Realm could quickly stack up his cultivation.
