The upgrade of the Heavenly Dao Engine couldn’t have come at a better time for Qi Tian. Each change was in a positive direction and greatly benefited him. The Heavenly Dao Engine expanded from two compartments to three, implicitly enhancing its capacity to store cultivation resources. The newly added compartment wasn’t connected to the fuel chamber but linked to the resource chamber, and it was not connected to the black hole in Qi Tian’s palm. Everything that entered through the black hole, as before, went straight into the resource chamber. To visualize it, the new compartment functioned as an auxiliary compartment to the resource chamber, attached to it.

Qi Tian promptly named this new addition the backup resource chamber. Its space was no smaller than that of the resource chamber, with ample room to hold a vast amount of cultivation resources.

The emergence of the backup resource chamber was very timely. Not so long ago, Qi Tian had to remove all items from the resource chamber and temporarily dump them on the ground, concerned that Tribulation Thunder entering the resource chamber might damage the stored cultivation resources. Now, he no longer had this worry. He could simply transfer all the cultivation resources to the backup resource chamber, perfectly avoiding this situation from happening again.

Qi Tian immediately moved the large amount of cultivation resources he had just transported from the Treasure Pavilion of Wenzhi Palace into the backup resource chamber, leaving the resource chamber empty.

Looking at the now vacant resource chamber, Qi Tian felt a sudden emptiness, as if something was missing. His gaze turned to another imperial palace located right beside Wenzhi Palace, the powerhouse within the Eastern Capital City—Chaoyang Palace.

Qi Tian’s impression of Chaoyang Palace ran deep. It was the first imperial palace he explored upon entering the Eastern Capital City. At that time, he followed Wang Fengna’s Divine Sense into Chaoyang Palace without arousing any attention and encountered Yang Yongqi’s ambush. Qi Tian had been fine, but Wang Fengna suffered a great loss, and later, when he went from Zhao Shibo’s Prince Manor to Jianwu Palace, Yang Yongqi appeared again, showing Qi Tian the formidable influence of Emperor Chaoyang.

Everything Qi Tian had experienced cultivated a strong disdain in him for the princes of the Imperial Family Secret Territory and the entire Eastern Capital City. It was for this reason that he felt no remorse using the Heavenly Tribulation to plunder the treasures of the princes’ vaults.

During the last reconnaissance of Chaoyang Palace, Qi Tian refrained from using the Heavenly Dao Engine’s Spirit Qi detection due to worries about the presence of powerful figures. The situation was different now; with the palace emptied by the Heavenly Tribulation, Qi Tian no longer feared being detected. He could thoroughly scan Chaoyang Palace with the Heavenly Dao Engine.

In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Dao Engine sent Qi Tian several three-dimensional images from which he quickly identified the location of the Treasure Pavilion of Chaoyang Palace. Just as Qi Tian was about to head to Chaoyang Palace, a bone-deep chill swept through him, originating from the core of his being.

Looking up, Qi Tian noticed the previously gloomy Tribulation Clouds had undergone a novel transformation. Thicker Thunder Serpents continued to weave within the clouds, and while the clouds remained dark and heavy, their shape had significantly changed. Originally, the Tribulation Clouds were clumped together, but now they rolled like waves, revealing ripples across their form.

Before Qi Tian could comprehend what was happening, clumps of black Tribulation Clouds started falling from the larger mass, transforming into windshear blades in midair, shrieking as they cleaved through the sky with their piercing cries.

“This isn’t good,” Qi Tian inwardly cursed. The Heavenly Tribulation was introducing new tricks—it was no longer just using Tribulation Thunder to subdue him, but had added Tribulation Winds as a new method to annihilate him, beginning with the seventh wave of the tribulation.

These Tribulation Winds were not only fast and numerous but also powerful, each possessing attack strength comparable to the full-force strike of a Half-step Nascent Soul Cultivator. Still, their true terror lay in their unpredictable flight paths. They were like boomerangs, tracing various arcs in the air, with no discernible pattern. They could slash through any direction—up, down, left, or right—making them extremely difficult to capture.

That wasn’t all. As the Tribulation Winds emerged from the clouds and reached midair, the Thunder Serpents that had been brewing for a long time emerged too. Seven Tribulation Thunders followed on the heels of the Tribulation Winds, relentlessly descending upon Qi Tian without distinction.

Qi Tian’s eyes showed no panic. No amount of distress could save him now. He simply spread out his hands and once again released his Transporting Whirlwinds.

With the promotion of the Heavenly Dao Engine, these Transporting Whirlwinds also evolved, increasing in number and power. Qi Tian simultaneously released the Spirit Qi sensing ability of the Heavenly Dao Engine, extending it in all directions around him. He used it to track the Spirit Qi in every direction and, based on those results, directed the Transporting Whirlwinds into action.
