1376 The Seven Immortal Tribulations
“Will this be all, Noble Lin Mu?” Elder Niji asked, holding a long sheet of paper.
“Yes, that should be enough to resolve most of the issues you might face for this.” Lin Mu confirmed.
“That’s good. Though I’ll take your advice and learn more about the formations too.” Elder Niji nodded his head.
“I’ll take care of it all till then. Don’t worry, I know enough about formations too.” Lanbao added.
After having made a new Dao Embryo Lin Mu had returned to meet with the rest of his companions. He rested a day after that and talked to them, explaining about his new gains.
None of them had ever heard or seen something like that before, thus they were quite interested in it all. Especially due to the fact that anyone have a Spatial Dao embryo was considered rare in the many worlds.
This was something Lin Mu took to a new level by making an entirely new type of a Dao Embryo. Something that even he himself was learning about.
Thus in order to further his own understanding, he decided to explore more though the formation he had made. He made a long and extensive list about the improvements that could be made to it in the future as well as any possible damages that might happen to it.
After considering all these, he compiled them all into a single document and handed them to Elder Niji to learn from.
“The Haima Tribe will be eternally grateful to you Noble Lin Mu. You are our next savior after Ancestor Muxuan. Just like he brought us back from the brink of extinction, you brought us back to our homeland.” Elder Niji said with great gratitude.
Lin Mu simple smiled and nodded head.
“I just did what I felt like I should do elder Niji. I’ll leave it to fate and see how everything goes.” Lin Mu replied.
They talked about some minor things before the topic finally came to Lin Mu’s coming departure.
“Will you be leaving soon, Lin Mu?” Lanbao asked.
“I might yes. I have broken through already and might be able to breakthrough once more.” Lin Mu replied.
“You feel the Immortal Tribulation coming?” Elder Niji asked with a raised brow.
“Yes…” Lin Mu nodded his head. “I feel like I can trigger it at any time.”
“How? You should have a few years left for that.” Elder Niji was confused.
“That’s true. If I want to I can suppress it. But I would much rather break through to the First Tribulation Immortal stage as soon as possible.” Lin Mu explained. “Plus I think it won’t be a problem for me.”
“Oh? What tribulation are you intending to pick as your first?” Lanbao asked. “If you want any tips, there are descriptions for various elemental tribulations in the library.” She added.
“There are? Can you get them for me?” Lin Mu requested.
“Of course,” Lanbao said with a smile and snapped her fingers.
~clack~
A three inch thick book fell to the table in front of them. It had a plain black cover and had the insignia of the Haima Tribe on it. After picking and opening it, Lin Mu realized that it was all hand written.
“Huh, it’s in pure Dao Script.” Lin Mu realized.
This was the first time he was seeing such pure Dao Script here in the Rust Sky world. While he had seen many other books, they weren’t as pure as this, often having words from the common tongue or smaller dialects mixed into it.
‘I can’t find even a single word that isn’t from the Dao Script in it.’ Lin Mu flipped through the book.
At the same time, he started reading it to learn more about the Immortal Tribulations.
For most experts, there were only 7 types of Immortal Tribulations. And after one overcome these, they could undergo the Transcendent Immortal Tribulations.
“The Transcendent Immortal Tribulations vary from the norm and can invoke the other Daos pulling their assistance to exact the justice of heavens…” Lin Mu read a very large warning that was written on it.
From what he could understand, the seven Elemental Immortal Tribulations were mostly straightforward and would have the same kind of effect on different experts.
The Fire immortal Tribulation would try to burn the expert.
The Water Immortal Tribulation would try to freeze the expert.
The Metal Immortal Tribulation would try to slash apart the expert into minced meat.
The Wood Immortal Tribulation was a little different and would instead drain away the vitality of the person, withering them and turning them into a husk.
It was even said that those who were fully drained of it would look no different than bark, making it one of the more feared tribulations to observe.
The Earth immortal Tribulation was also lightly different, but it instead made one submit to the earth. It would exert a massive gravity on the person and if they didn’t endure it they would be crushed into a flat pancake.
Next there was the Wind immortal Tribulation. This was considered tough for most to overcome since it would involve tribulation winds that would directly target their Nascent souls.
Finally, there was the Lightning Immortal Tribulation. It was something that almost all cultivators were experienced in as they had been through something similar once.
If they had gone through the Nascent soul realm, normally they would have survived it and known its power.
But for the Immortal Tribulation, the lightning would take on a fearsome form and would shatter everything it touched. This was also why most Immortals only took the Lightning immortal Tribulation at the very end.
And unless they had no other option, they would try to avoid it. Only those that were very confident or had affinity to the Lightning element, would dare to take it before that.
“Looks like I know what I’m gonna take.” Lin Mu said with a smile realizing that he had already experienced a weaker form of it before.
