I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm-Chapter 451 - 261: True Spirit Thunder Tribulation

Venerable Lei Hong focused his Divine Sense, meticulously analyzing the four spirit beasts and critiquing them one by one.

The Tier Seven True Spirit, Purple Sky Thunder Beast, glanced at Venerable Lei Hong and then at Li Mu, offering a detailed explanation: "Friend Li, the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation is roughly the same as the Lightning Tribulation of the Human Race Cultivators, but there are some differences. The True Spirit Thunder Tribulation is divided into six levels based on the bloodline power of the Tribulation Demon Beast, its innate talent, and its strength during the tribulation: Yellow, Black, Earth, Heaven, Saint, and Divine."

"Demon Beasts of ordinary bloodline that successfully pass the Transformation Thunder Tribulation and can partially transform their bodies, typically face Yellow and Black levels of True Spirit Tribulation at the Tier Seven True Spirit Tribulation, with 18-27 waves of Tribulation Thunder, each wave containing 9 bolts of thunder, primarily undergoing tribulations such as Bloodline Tribulation, Soul Condensation Tribulation, Spirit Formation Tribulation, Divine Techniques Tribulation, ..." After a pause, the Tier Seven True Spirit, Purple Sky Thunder Beast, continued its eloquent discourse.

"Those with extraordinary talent, innate bloodline inheritance, capable of perfect transformation or unable to transform, Tier Six Tribulation Spirit Beasts, will face Earth and Heaven level True Spirit Thunder Tribulations upon promotion, with 36-54 waves of tribulation thunder, in addition to common thunder tribulations, including Heart Demon Tribulation, Cocoon Breaking Tribulation, Inheritance Tribulation."

"Spirit Beasts with the demeanor of a Divine Beast, bearing the grace of Heaven and Earth, and carrying the fate of the Heavenly Dao, face Saint and Divine level True Spirit Tribulations at the Tier Seven level, 72-99 waves of tribulation thunder, gathering countless thunders to establish the holy true spirit posture, such True Spirit Thunder Tribulations, cannot be crossed by Mortal Beasts, additionally facing Dao Acceptance Tribulation and Beast God Tribulation." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

...

The Tier Seven True Spirit, Purple Sky Thunder Beast, provided Li Mu with a detailed introduction to the various tribulation thunder scenarios of the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation, analyzing the difficulties encountered therein.

Having never heard such information before, Li Mu found this enlightening and felt he had indeed asked the right person!

"Senior, could you elaborate on the details of each stage of the True Spirit Tribulation?" Li Mu continued to inquire, looking at the Tier Seven True Spirit, Purple Sky Thunder Beast.

"Let me answer that question. You should put them away first! Certain things are not suitable for them to hear now, or there might be hidden dangers during the True Spirit Tribulation." Venerable Lei Hong interjected with a meaningful look at Li Mu, suggesting.

Li Mu understood, instructing the four spirit beasts, "You should go back for now!"

Xiaojin, Xiaowa, and the Chi Lian Fire Phoenix obediently returned to the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet.

The Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon displayed a look of regret, as it was being drawn in by what Venerable Lei Hong was explaining and wanted to know more about the subsequent aspects of the True Spirit Tribulation! However, it dared not defy Li Mu’s command and disappeared instantly.

"Senior! Done!" Li Mu put away the four spirit beasts and cast a Restriction Technique to isolate the Spirit-Taming Treasure Bracelet, preventing anything within from detecting the outside world.

"In the art of Spirit Taming, there are several methods such as Heart Control, Soul Control, Spiritual Imperial, Emotion Control, Object Control, ... The stronger the Spirit Taming method’s control over the spirit beasts, the more stringent the requirements on the master." Once Li Mu had secured the spirit beasts, Venerable Lei Hong solemnly began to introduce some Spirit Taming knowledge.

Although he did not know what Spirit Taming methods Li Mu used, that he could command so many high-quality spirit beasts at once indicated an extraordinary Spirit Taming methodology.

Li Mu knowingly nodded, understanding the deeper implications in Venerable Lei Hong’s words. The Spirit Taming Contract Skill he practiced followed the Dao of Soul Control, where a Contract Seal was imprinted on the Divine Soul of the spirit beasts, directly restraining their freedom. Signing so many spirit beasts imposed not a small burden on his own Divine Soul, thus he opted to use Contract Seal for juveniles or on demon beasts residing in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion, who were inherently without freedom and easier to control.

"The Dao of Heart Control is the most superior, imposing no restrictions on the spirit beast and thus causing no backlash on the master. Beast God is the heart-controlling True Spirit of our sect’s founding patriarch!" Venerable Lei Hong explained to Li Mu.

"Enough of this nonsense! Quickly tell him about the True Spirit Thunder Tribulation!" The Tier Seven True Spirit, Purple Mist Thunder Beast, feeling a loss of face, impatiently urged.

"Alright!" Venerable Lei Hong nodded with a smile, his expression turning serious as he earnest began to explain to Li Mu: "The Tier Seven True Spirit Tribulation is extremely challenging. Success in crossing the tribulation signifies a rebirth for the spirit beast."

"The common thunders in the True Spirit Tribulation are categorized into eighteen types: Bloodline Tribulation, Soul Refining Tribulation, Heart Demon Tribulation, Body Tempering Tribulation, ..."

"The Bloodline Tribulation is based on the bloodline of the tribulation spirit beast, with thunderbolts effectuating bloodline purification and the effect of burning blood for tempering. The stronger the foundation, the easier the tribulation process. This Golden Ape and Rock Lizard, upon passing the Transformation Tribulation, would easily overcome this tribulation owing to their Body Refinement abilities."

"The Soul Refining Tribulation, as the name implies, targets the soul of the tribulation spirit beast. The tribulation thunder contains the effects of refining the Divine Soul and purifying the mind to cross the spirit. This tribulation will erase the spirit beast’s Divine Soul restrictions; if Soul Control Techniques were used, and the spirit beast successfully crosses this tribulation, achieving Tier Seven True Spirit, it might turn on the master, for True Spirits should not be mistreated!"

At this point, Venerable Lei Hong, filled with deeper meaning, explained solemnly to Li Mu.

Upon hearing this, Li Mu suddenly realized the intent behind Venerable Lei Hong’s words and understood why he had advised putting the spirit beasts away, not discussing such matters in front of them.

Venerable Lei Hong must have discerned something, confirming that he was following the Dao of Soul Control!

However, the Full Level Spirit Contract he cultivated should not allow the seals imprinted on the spirit beasts’ Divine Souls to be so easily dispelled by the True Spirit Tribulation.

Besides, Xiaojin, Xiaowa, and they all were raised by him since they were young. Even in the case of the Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon, he had treated it generously, providing Dragon Transformation Spirit Grass, various Spirit Pills, and even a Tier Six Spiritual Treasure.
