After much thought, Mo Wen decided to cultivate properly in the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace for a while before considering other matters.

First, he needed to improve his strength. That way, if he encountered any ignorant individuals out in the world later, he could put on a good show, right?

As for controlling the thunder tribulations, he'd worry about that later.

Besides, those waiting for their transformation weren't his relatives. Why should he bother with them?

Although it was a bit lonely and desolate being alone in this vast hall, wasn't he alone before his transformation anyway?

He had endured such monotonous years, what was a little more time?

The more Mo Wen thought about it, the more brilliant his decision seemed.

Moreover, judging by the current situation, the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace seemed to possess a powerful force that concealed his information.

Otherwise, given the nature of the primordial powerhouses, they wouldn't have failed to come and seize such a treasure if they knew it existed.

Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry to deal with the Thunder Tribulation Control. Instead, he directly sat cross-legged on the massive black and gold throne and closed his eyes.

Although he didn't have a cultivation technique, as a thunder spirit, he only needed to slowly absorb the Sea of Thunder Origin outside the hall to improve his strength.

One year!

Ten years!

A hundred years!

As the saying goes, time flies when you're in seclusion, and even more so in the Primordial Era.

And Mo Wen was content with his current strength, so he didn't care about the fleeting passage of time.

While Mo Wen was cultivating, outside the Primordial Era, six figures arrived one after another before the magnificent palace radiating astonishing power.

"Fellow Daoists, have you also come for the matter of the Transformation Thunder Tribulation?"

"Have you made any discoveries?"

Jieyin cupped his hands in greeting to the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa with a smile, his stern demeanor softening a bit, replaced by a more cheerful expression.

"We have questions in our hearts, hence we have come to seek guidance from our teacher!"

Taiqing shook his head slightly, not elaborating further.

However, Nuwa seemed to recall something and looked at Jieyin: "Didn't you appear on the peak of Buzhou Mountain earlier?"

"This Palace believes that the current Transformation Thunder Tribulation is related to the thunderclouds that suddenly disappeared from the peak of Buzhou Mountain, but the reason is unclear!"

After all, not long after that lightning cloud incident, Heaven's Will descended with a decree.

She always felt there was some connection between these two matters.

However, even as a Saint, she couldn't see through Heaven's Will to find the answer.

As soon as Nuwa spoke, the Three Pure Ones almost simultaneously looked towards Jieyin and Zhunti.

"Jieyin, Zhunti, you two senior brothers went to Buzhou Mountain to investigate. Did you find anything at all?"

Tongtian was the first to speak to the Two Sages of the West, his words carrying a hint of dissatisfaction, as if he looked down on these two Saints of the Western Teachings.

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian is joking!"

"We thought a Treasure was about to appear and went to investigate, but we returned empty-handed!"

"If we knew the reason, why would we come to disturb Teacher?"

Jieyin and Zhunti didn't mind Tongtian's tone and merely shook their heads slightly.

"Is that so?"

"This Venerable One feels..."

Tongtian wanted to speak again, to continue questioning, but Taiqing, standing beside him, slowly stepped forward and interrupted him.

"Third Brother, do not speak too much before Teacher's dojo. Everything will be known once we see Teacher!"

As his voice fell, Taiqing arrived at the gates of Zixiao Palace and cupped his hands in a salute towards the inside: "Disciple Taiqing, specially comes to pay respects to Teacher and requests Teacher to resolve this confusion for this disciple!"

"Please begin to resolve our confusion!"

"..."

Yuanshi, Tongtian, Nuwa, Jieyin, and Zhunti all revealed a respectful expression at this moment, bowing towards the inside of Zixiao Palace and shouting loudly.

Inside Zixiao Palace!

Hongjun Dao Ancestor had already noticed the arrival of the Six Saints.

He slightly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of solemnity.

The matter these disciples came to ask about was also something he wanted to understand clearly.

However, he didn't even know why Heaven's Will was concealing these matters. How could he resolve the confusion for Taiqing and the others?

Since Heaven's Will did not allow him to know, he naturally could not inform these Saints.

Thus, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "It is Heaven's Will. There is no confusion to resolve. Go back!"

Outside Zixiao Palace, the Six Great Saints had already planned how to inquire about this matter. Upon hearing Hongjun Dao Ancestor's words, they couldn't help but freeze.

"Teacher..."

Taiqing hesitated for several breaths before cupping his hands again, seemingly wanting to speak.

"Return!"

"Your duty is to follow Heaven's Will!"

"When you should know, you will know!"

Just then, an astonishing power swept out from within Zixiao Palace, forcing them to take half a step back.

Within that power, threads of heavenly might stirred their hearts, immediately dispelling their thoughts of further inquiry.

"We were presumptuous. We hope Teacher will not blame us!"

Taiqing quickly spoke, bowing for the third time towards the main gate of Zixiao Palace.

At this moment, that astonishing power retracted back into Zixiao Palace.

Yuanshi, Tongtian, Nuwa, as well as Jieyin and Zhunti, all wore expressions of surprise.

After exchanging glances, they all bowed towards Zixiao Palace and took their leave.

Not long after, the Six Great Saints retreated back into the Great Desolation, heading towards their respective dojos, seemingly no longer daring to investigate the matter of the Transformation Thunder Tribulation.

After all, Hongjun had already told them that Heaven's Will could not be defied. If they continued to dwell on it, they feared the Heavenly Dao would descend punishment.

Since that was the case, they could only wait for the Thunder Tribulation to descend in the future before investigating further.

Atop Buzhou Mountain, within the mysterious space, in the Thunder Tribulation Divine Palace!

Mo Wen was still cultivating, as if he had forgotten that he had become the Thunder Tribulation Controller.

One hundred years!

Two hundred years!

Five hundred years!

[Obtained five hundred years of Transformation Thunder Tribulation Control authority. Can descend Transformation Thunder Tribulation at any time!]

Five hundred years passed. Crisp sounds echoed in Mo Wen's ears, causing him to open his eyes.

The sound was like an alarm clock, seemingly reminding Mo Wen that it was time to get up and go to work.

"No rush!"

"Wait a bit longer, cultivation is important!"

Unfortunately, Mo Wen didn't take it seriously. After a few responses, he resumed his cultivation.

It wasn't that he didn't want to try controlling the Transformation Thunder Tribulation, he was just worried that those ancient mighty beings would find his hiding place by following the tribulation.

So, it was better to keep a low profile and wait.

Six hundred years!

Seven hundred years!

One thousand years!

[Have controlled the authority of the Transformation Thunder Tribulation for one thousand years, please exercise your authority!]

After a thousand years, another crisp voice rang out, startling Mo Wen, who was currently comprehending the Law of Thunder.

This made Mo Wen pause. A thousand years had passed so quickly?

Since that was the case, he would wait a bit longer!

Just now, he had faintly sensed a hint of a breakthrough.

One thousand one hundred years!

Two thousand three hundred years!

Time flew by, and three thousand years roared past.

During these three thousand years, many beings had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of their Transformation Thunder Tribulation.

Many ancient beings who had already reached the stage of transformation were growing somewhat frantic from waiting.

Accumulating magical power without transforming meant their cultivation progressed slower than after transformation.

Above a massive mountain range in the eastern part of the Primordial World!

A flying beast, exuding an astonishing demonic aura, slowly descended.

"Why hasn't my Transformation Thunder Tribulation arrived yet?"

"Didn't the Heavenly Dao say that one could gain supreme benefits by undergoing the Thunder Tribulation Trial?"

"This... this has been three thousand years!"

"Has the Heavenly Dao forgotten that I can transform?"

The Demon Bird looked up at the sky, letting out mournful cries, its eyes turning blood red.

In the center of the West Sea, above the sea surface!

A colossal Demonic Whale slowly surfaced, exuding a sky-piercing malevolent aura.

"Roar... What does the Transformation Thunder Tribulation actually look like?"

"I've waited for thousands of years, it should appear by now, right?"

"Heavenly Dao is unfair..."

Deep roars echoed through the heavens and earth, stirring up terrifying tsunamis on the sea surface, as if venting its inner rage.
