Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 662 - 317: Fourth Rank Demon Monarch

The thunder tribulation finally ended!

"Master actually gave such a treasure as the ’Treasure Umbrella’ to this stupid mouse!!"

From dozens of miles away, Yunqing Zhenren stared intensely at the water mouse that had just crossed the thunder tribulation, his eyes nearly spitting fire, his face filled with uncontrollable jealousy and hatred.

The ’Treasure Umbrella’ is a precious artifact, even among those used in crossing thunder tribulations.

To gift such a treasure to a Demon Beast seems like an enormous waste in Yunqing Zhenren’s eyes.

Undoubtedly, this was given to the water mouse because of Yan Ruchen.

This fact once again demonstrated his master’s special favor and attention towards Yan Ruchen.

If the opponent’s Spirit Pet truly breaks through to Fourth Rank form, then his master would definitely value Yan Ruchen even more.

In the long run, it wouldn’t be entirely impossible for some affection to develop towards her.

"I don’t believe this stupid mouse can survive the final Heart Demon Tribulation!"

Thinking about the possibilities after the water mouse achieves the Fourth Rank, Yunqing Zhenren couldn’t help but grit his teeth, his expression twisted and ferocious.

The Heart Demon Tribulation is the most bizarre and challenging calamity in breaking through to Nascent Soul.

No matter how profound your cultivation is, or how immense your combat strength, they are of no use.

If you can’t get through it, there’s only one path to death.

Countless prodigies from sacred lands have fallen at this hurdle.

...

At the site of the tribulation.

Xu Ping was responsible for guarding, watching the water mouse that had just passed the thunder tribulation with a grave expression.

Though the thunder tribulation was over, there was not a hint of joy or relaxation on his face.

Because... the Heart Demon Tribulation had arrived!

A pitch-black vortex suddenly formed at the center of the tribulation cloud, like a cold demonic eye, mercilessly watching the water mouse below.

The vortex slowly rotated, and with each turn, it emitted a wave of eerie vibrations that made the Divine Soul tremble.

These vibrations weren’t ordinary energy disturbances, but a special force that acted directly upon the soul, even Nascent Soul Cultivators had to remain vigilant.

"Hoo—"

A gray mist drifted down from the vortex, seemingly soft, yet it made Xu Ping’s heart palpitate.

The mist seemed to contain all the negative emotions in the world:

Fear, greed, anger, despair... even before contact, it disturbed one’s mind!

"Squeak!"

The water mouse let out a short, sharp scream, immediately enveloped by the gray mist.

Its body instantly stiffened, the light in its eyes gradually fading, clearly entrapped in a heart demon illusion.

Xu Ping stared intently at the gray mist, his heart rising.

The thunder tribulation could be resisted with sheer strength, but the Heart Demon Tribulation directly targeted one’s true self, rendering even the strongest body useless.

Even with the aid of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill he prepared, he couldn’t claim to have complete confidence...

"Elder Yan need not worry overmuch."

Just as Xu Ping was filled with unease, a gentle voice came from behind.

Xu Ping turned to find True Monarch Lan Ling already standing not far away without him noticing.

Her brow shone like a snow-capped ridge, radiantly beautiful, her blue dress swirling in the wind, outlining her graceful figure.

She opened her delicate lips, softly comforting, "Your Spirit Pet has a solid foundation, a resilient disposition, and with the Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill, it has at least a sixty percent chance of overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation."

"I hope so."

Xu Ping forced a smile, expressing gratitude to True Monarch Lan Ling.

But he knew in his heart that the Heart Demon Tribulation was unpredictable.

Even with a ninety percent certainty, a minor heart knot could cause the effort to be in vain.

History is not lacking in geniuses with outstanding talent and deep cultivation who fell at this tribulation.

Time passed, minute by minute.

In the gray mist, the water mouse occasionally trembled, occasionally growled, clearly undergoing unimaginable trials.

After several hours.

The gray mist suddenly exploded in all directions, as if torn apart by some mighty force from within, the strange alien demonic sound abruptly stopped.

As the heart demon tribulation mist dispersed.

The gray-black tribulation clouds in the sky retreated like a tidal wave as the calamity’s ominous aura faded.

Like clearing skies after rain, the black-gray clouds blossomed into a colorful glow, forming a vast auspicious cloud.

The mysterious sound of the Great Dao, from the rotating colorful auspicious cloud, rang, descending an intangible wave of Dao rhythm.

"Is this... success?"

Xu Ping was momentarily stunned, but the next instant, a look of ecstasy washed over his face like a tide.

"Finally... success!!!!"

This water mouse, on which he had expended so many resources and effort, had not disappointed him!

The Three Nascent Soul Gates were crossed, the water mouse now truly a Fourth Rank Demon Monarch!

At this moment, even True Monarch Lan Ling couldn’t help but show a faint smile.

The breakthrough of the water mouse to the Fourth Rank means that the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons now had another Fourth Rank Demon Monarch, raising the sect’s overall strength to a new level.

The mist dispersed, revealing the water mouse’s figure once more.

Its entire body glowed with a purple-blue light.

The originally purple-blue fur had deepened, revealing a few traces of mystical colors.

The water mouse’s body had grown slightly larger, faintly resembling a human form.

Most striking of all, on its forehead, in the center, there was a purple-blue rhombus mark, about the size of a thumb, exuding mysterious and unpredictable fluctuations.

"What is this?"

True Monarch Lan Ling was momentarily stunned, her starry eyes showing disbelief: "Divine Power Seal!"

"Divine Power Seal?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Ping quickly suppressed his inner joy and excitement, immediately inquiring, "May I ask True Monarch, what is this Divine Power Seal?"

Perhaps the awakening of the Divine Power Seal in the water mouse was too shocking, for True Monarch Lan Ling was momentarily at a loss.

"The Divine Power Seal is an innate divine ability that only awakens after a Demon Beast breakthroughs to the Fourth Rank, either due to ancestral bloodline or a divine soul resonance that triggers a heavenly gift."

"Only the very top Demon Monarchs, one in a hundred, might possibly awaken it." True Monarch Lan Ling stared at Xu Ping, speaking word by word.

"Only one in a hundred top Demon Monarchs can awaken the Divine Power Seal?"

Xu Ping was initially ecstatic, but then quickly calmed down.

Because he thought this matter might not be entirely good news.
