Yin Shi was stopped several times in the area around the Cursed Valley.

However, the sects seemed to have made a pact and didn’t randomly attack the cultivators who exited the Valley.

As a result, Yin Shi successfully arrived in the nearest town and took a teleportation formation to another city.

After arriving there, she changed her appearance and took another teleportation formation. Two teleportations later, Yin Shi exited the city and boarded a flying ship.

The ship was not the Mayfly.

However, it was a level eight ship and could fly fast, reaching the Southern Blue Ocean in less than two months.

At this time, Yang Shi transformed into a young man and used his contract with Shen Xu to message him.

Soon after, the double and Zhen Yuan appeared on the ship deck.

"Did everything go well?" Shen Xu asked, looking at the two.

"We didn’t encounter any trouble." Yin Shi said, and Shen Xu nodded.

After that, the four flew around the Southern Blue Ocean and finally found a remote island.

"I will arrange a lightning guiding formation." Zhen Yuan said and turned to Yang Shi.

"Adjust your condition and prepare to advance." He said, and Yang Shi nodded.

"I know."

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

During that time, Yang Shi entered the space to adjust his condition while Zhen Yuan arranged the lightning guiding formation and other arrays.

On the morning of the sixth day, Yang Shi sat cross-legged at the centre of the formations and released his cultivation.

Soon after, dark clouds formed in the sky and began to gather, causing the surrounding sky to darken.

"I hope the tribulation won’t attract too many people." Shen Xu said with a worried expression.

After all, Yang Shi was not human and needed to change into his true form to advance.

Considering that, Shen Xu was worried that spectators would covet Yang Shi and interfere with his tribulation.

"Don’t worry. I have arranged a hidden formation. It should be able to hold for some time." Zhen Yuan said.

Half a day later, Yang Shi transformed into a two-headed python and welcomed the first wave of tribulation lightning.

Fortunately, he was already a level ten body refiner and could easily handle the tribulation for advancing to level eight.

However, he had broken through two major realms during his seclusion, and the second tribulation started immediately after the first ended.

"Someone is approaching." Zhen Yuan said and waved his hand to remove a puppet from the space.

"Stop them." He instructed, and the level nine puppet rushed towards the approaching person.

With several puppets guarding the law, Yang Shi successfully advanced and became a level nine monster.

Soon after, Shen Xu sent him to the space to recuperate, and before leaving, he and Zhen Yuan cleaned the island, including using a forgetting inscription.

"That went well." The double said, and Zhen Yuan nodded with a thoughtful expression.

The triplets had previously cultivated to the mahayana realm and didn’t need to cross the tribulation until they advanced to the tribulation transcending realm.

However, the three had changed from human cultivators to monster cultivators.

Because of this, they needed to undergo the transformation tribulation, and Shen Xu couldn’t help but worry about unwanted attention.

"Let’s hope their transformation won’t attract too much attention." He said.

"Phoenix are divine monsters, and their transformation will create a spectacle. It’s highly unlikely that people won’t notice." Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu sighed with a helpless expression.

"I know, but I am still hopeful." He said.

Although they were not afraid of trouble, Shen Xu didn’t like the idea of his people being ambushed when crossing the tribulation.

After all, an attack could affect the triplet’s state of mind, causing them to fail their transformation and breakthrough.

Additionally, a phoenix was the kind of divine treasure that could cause bloody wars in the cultivation world.

If outsiders discovered that Feng Xue and the Xuanyuan triplets were phoenixes, their group would be hunted nonstop, and they would not know a moment of peace.

Most importantly, the Xuanwu secret realm was about to open.

After leaving the secret realm, many cultivators would ascend and would have the opportunity to reveal their secrets to powerful cultivators in the immortal realm.

’We can still protect ourselves in the cultivation world, but we will be at the bottom of the food chain in the immortal realm. It would be troublesome if powerful immortals knew that we have four phoenixes in our group.’ Shen Xu thought and sighed again.

Three weeks later, the ship landed at another remote island.

"This will do." The double said, looking around the abandoned island.

"Our immediate worry is sea beasts." Zhen Yuan said, his eyes narrowed into slits.

Because they didn’t want to attract human cultivators, they ventured into the inner sea, which was rife with sea beasts.

However, both felt that encountering sea beasts was better than encountering cultivators.

"I will arrange the formations." Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu nodded.

"I have already prepared the pills, weapons, and spirit stones. They can transform once the formations are done." He said.

After that, Zhen Yuan arranged illusion formations, lightning guiding formations, isolation formations, hidden formations, and others, hoping to conceal the tribulation as much as possible.

Originally, the couple planned to let the triplets cross the tribulation one at a time.

However, after thinking about it, they felt that the plan was too risky.

After all, the Tianxuan sect had ways of tracking Mo Ling, the triplets, and Feng Xue.

Once one appeared in the Southern Blue Ocean, many forces would react and rush over.

Considering this, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan felt it was dangerous to let the triplets cross the tribulation one at a time because looking for different islands would waste too much time.

That said, although they decided to let them transform together, their tribulation sites were far apart to prevent one from affecting the others.

’It’s a gamble, but it’s our best option. Let’s hope that everything goes well.’ Shen Xu thought.
