In the tent, Liu Ruming sipped her tea and began, "Foundation Establishment has three disasters, the Purple Mansion has nine difficulties, and the Golden Core has twelve tribulations. It seems like a lot, but these tribulations can be categorized into three types: Celestial Tribulation, Life Tribulation, and Human Tribulation.
Celestial Tribulation is a trial sent down by the Heavenly Dao, a divine test.
Celestial Tribulation, though seemingly fierce, actually follows certain patterns, and its power can be somewhat anticipated.
Life Tribulation is the tribulation of fate, of destiny, like insufficient talent, inadequate aptitude, lack of understanding, scarcity of opportunities, and so on. Life Tribulation is a contest of fate, destiny, and fortune, and also follows patterns.
Among the three tribulations, Celestial and Life Tribulations are relatively easier.
But Human Tribulation is the hardest, with no discernible pattern.
