Basically, mc stole the spiritual root of ml because mc holds a grudge on ml thinking that he took opportunities and honor from him. And since that day, this event has become the heart demon of ml. Cultivators who have to undergo a tribulation face their heart demons (in many versions) so that they can succeed.
