Only Great Ascension Stage Demon Beasts with powerful bloodlines and extraordinary talents could be called true spirits. After a true spirit died, it would leave behind a True Spirit Soul, which was its soul. After an ordinary Great Ascension Stage Demon Beast died, however, its soul would automatically dissipate and return to heaven and earth, barring any unforeseen circumstances. This was the greatest difference between true spirits and ordinary Demon Beasts.
The True Spirit Soul could condense a True Spirit Source. If a Demon Beast with the same bloodline refined the True Spirit Source, there was a high chance it would evolve into a true spirit. This was a unique inheritance method of true spirits. Even if it failed to evolve into a true spirit, it could still inherit some of the true spirit's innate divine abilities, making it far stronger than ordinary Demon Beasts of the same rank.
"The True Spirit Source had many uses. If a Void Refinement Cultivator refined a True Spirit Source, it could shed its mortal form and remake its bones. When attempting to break into the Body Integration Realm, it could increase the chances by thirty percent, far surpassing most heavenly treasures. If a Spirit Beast with the same bloodline refined a True Spirit Source, its divine abilities would greatly increase, and it might even evolve into a true spirit."

True Spirit Blood can be used for Alchemy or to cultivate Secret Arts. True Spirit Source can assist Void Refinement
