Because Ji Jingqiu was indeed undergoing the baptism of the Bitter Sea!
This illusory projection of the Bitter Sea actually materialized in the True Realm, rain imbued with the Power of Bitter Sea drenching his body, baptizing his flesh.
No, this wasn't just a refining baptism!
It was a tribulation!
No wonder he was able to cultivate a trace of Immortal Divine in the Divine Travel Realm!
Because he was undergoing a tribulation!
Even the All Gods would not dare to cross this Bitter Sea filled with countless calamities!
Hel's spirit was shaken.
How could this young man withstand the Bitter Sea without being eroded by the Eight Sufferings, unaffected by unending tribulations?
Vaguely, Hel seemed to see an ancient, weathered green glazed lamp lit above Ji Jingqiu's head.
Its light was serene and bright, seemingly illuminating the depths of the Bitter Sea, as if to light a path of transcendence directly to the other shore for all beings.
