Val reached the summit of the hill not long after he started the climb.
Once there, he decided to make sure it was a safe enough place to make a breakthrough and activated his Heavenly Eye Skill. As a result, his surroundings became clear as day to him.
A few beasts were lurking quiet close to his location, but none of them were formidable enough to pose a threat to his life.
They didn't have the ability to take advantage of the situation when Val would be entirely focused and busy surviving the heavenly tribulation to strike him down. And so, this was a very good location to attempt his breakthrough.
Val walked up to the edge of the cliff before he raised his head and looked towards the heavens.
The sky above was exceptionally clear. It was a vast expanse of blue that stretched as far as the eye could see with a sun that hung bright and high, showering the land with its golden rays. But this was all about to change pretty soon.
