The process of exceeding the limit of one's own soul sea is extremely arduous, they would need to endure the intense pain like someone is removing your skin by pulling it off of you while they burn your flesh with molten iron adding the feeling of someone removing your bones one by one. All of it will happen as you try to concentrate.

The only benefit one can feel from it is the divine heavenly tribulation, the first heavenly tribulation will happen as one ascends to Immortal Paragon.

The heavens will temper cultivation through the way of giving that person a tribulation of elements that they are really weak too. Although this tribulation is the lightest, at least 50% of those that had been baptized by it had died.

This so-called 'Benefit' can be either God's blessing or the Grim's reaper. If you successfully pass the tribulation, your soul sea will be tempered by an additional capacity while if you fail, there can only be one outcome... death.

Every cultivator's physical pain tolerance increases as they rank up, hence, although mortals would feel it extremely painful, sometimes, for cultivators, it might just be like a prick of a needle.

Mo Xie felt excited immediately: ”Which of the elements should I cultivate?!”

Mo Xie's mind grew frenzy, he couldn't believe a blessing like this actually exist: ”To curse you gods as I was born, I am deeply ashamed of myself, this Mo Xie eternally thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

Then, a thunder rang out, Mo Xie became speechless again: ”Are they... answering me?”

As Mo Xie asked this question, the rain outside the Pagoda started to pour madly.

Mo Xie sigh, he didn't speak further and started to pick his cultivation.

Unlike others that couldn't pick a path that complements one another, Mo Xie can, he's only at gold rank yet he could actually already cultivate four types of arts! This is truly a great blessing for him.

Mo Xie pondered for a while, he wants to choose something of extremely great.

The elemental powers have each of their own weaknesses and strength, Mo Xie needs to pick wisely.

The four basic elements are fire, wind, water, and earth, each has its own counterpart.

Fire is weak against water but is strong against the earth element.

In a line, it can be described as fire > water > wind > earth > fire.

The two profound elements are light and dark, some call it the selfish elements due to it only possessing each other as a weakness. Sadly, a person can only cultivate either of them. If a person tries to cultivate both light and dark element, they will die a gruesome death due to soul sea explosion.

There are also other special elements like lightning, metal, and many more.

These are a combination of elements.

An example is metal = Fire + water + high-grade earth = metal, but then, metal is extremely weak against the wind, hence, people rarely chose special elements as a core. But special elements are then used in the upper realm, they just need to choose the cultivation art most proficient with it.

Then, there is also the complication of elements, like light and darkness, they will need to think carefully about elements. If one person is to cultivate the art of fire and chose water next, they will decrease the fire cultivation's power depending on one's soul sea.

Mo Xie smiled: ”I will pick lightning then.” Mo Xie searched his memory for the strongest cultivational art of lightning that supplements his fire cultivation.

It took Mo Xie a few hours to take in two elements.

Mo Xie already knows the epitome of each skill, sadly, his soul sea isn't really his old one, hence, he needs to temper his soul sea more for it to get accustomed to the cultivation arts, the more it gets accustomed to the art, the more powerful the art becomes.

Mo Xie smiled: ”I everything will turn great.”

But then, as Mo Xie spoke of this, he noticed something extremely rare.

His eyes widen in shock as he looked at his soul sea: ”This...”

The lightning profound art he started to cultivate took another quarter of his soul sea, yet, both the fire and the lightning aren't even touching each other, which means, something is dividing it.

And Mo Xie already knows what it is.

His soul sea is extremely white, hence, he couldn't see it before, but now, he has both lightning and fire arts, he can clearly see something in between them.

Mo Xie couldn't help but smile as he spoke: ”This... Isn't this an innate ability? I have an innate light attribute soul sea!”

Mo Xie searched his memory trying to find something from the records of his old self, but he couldn't remember everything that has a rare soul sea like this, Mo Xie smiled as he spoke: ”Let's call it, Surpassing Tribulation Light Soul Sea!”
