Chapter 52: Awakening Spirit Roots, Supreme-Grade Heavenly Spirit Root!
Two and a half months had passed.
For the entire continent, this was probably the quietest three months.
All the sects and forces, all the disciples, were looking forward to whether they would be able to awaken their spirit roots, obtain the aptitude for immortal cultivation, and finally go to Heavenly Illusion City.
Finally, one evening, the sun had set.
Suddenly, the sky changed color, and countless spiritual lights appeared in the sky. It was as if many cracks appeared in the sky.
The entire sky was like a broken mirror, and through the cracks, people could see the wider world.
The world changed greatly, and countless amounts of spiritual energy surged out from the cracks. All the animals and plants began to grow, and many even transformed into spiritual beasts or demonic beasts.
It wasn’t just the plants and animals that changed. Countless humans, especially cultivators, broke through one after another. There were also many heaven’s favorites who had awakened their spiritual roots and were able to sense and even absorb spiritual energy.
All of a sudden, all the sects began to test their aptitude.
Qingyun Mountain, Qingyun Palace.
At this moment, everyone in the entire sect who could sense and absorb the spiritual energy of the universe had gathered here.
As Victor had expected, other than a few outer sect disciples, the other candidates were mostly inner sect disciples, and there were also some elders.
It was a pity that there were so many spiritual root aptitudes. If he were to download them, each of them would take at least a year. It was a pity that he did not have that much time to download them.
Perhaps when he went to the Heavenly Sword Mountain in the future, there might be even better aptitudes that he could download.
“Since the Heavenly Sword Mountain requires you to be under 20 years old, let’s start testing your aptitude according to your seniority!”
“The first one, Victor!”
Hearing Song Xiuwen shout, Victor, who was standing in the front row with the other senior brothers, slowly raised his head. His calm gaze swept over the senior brothers around him and the martial nephews behind him.
He calmly walked to a stone table and placed his hand on the black gem-like stone tablet.
Then, Victor slowly closed his eyes. In the next moment, the stone tablet suddenly lit up with a clean green light.
Then, the green light suddenly disappeared into the stone tablet.
Three lines of white light appeared on the stone tablet.
“Spirit root aptitude: Heavenly spirit root
“Spirit root attributes: Wood attribute
“Spirit gathering realm: Level nine.”
When they saw the result of Victor’s test, everyone was talking about it. There were even many envious voices.
“Heavenly spirit root? Wood attribute?”
“Is this good or average?”
“Do you even need to think about it? A spirit root with the prefix ‘heaven’, could it be an average spirit root? It must be the strongest one!”
“Moreover, the awakening of a spiritual root means that he is qualified to go to Heavenly Illusion City.”
“Isn’t Junior Elder Victor a half-step grandmaster? Why does it show that he is in the ninth level of the spirit gathering realm?”
Zhang Lingren nodded at Victor. Then, Victor walked down the stage unhurriedly and returned to the line of elders.
“Next, Gu Xu.”
In the noisy crowd, the voice of the first elder rang out again in the hall.
Gu Xu walked out from the second row of inner disciples and stood in front of the stone tablet. He imitated Victor and pressed his hand on the stone tablet.
Then, three rays of light appeared on the stone tablet: green, yellow, and red.
Three lines of small white light appeared on the stone tablet.
“Spiritual root aptitude: True spirit root
“Spiritual root attributes: Wood, earth, and fire
“Spirit gathering realm: Level five.”
“F*ck, senior brother Gu Xu actually has three attributes!”
“Does this mean that Senior Brother Gu Xu is even more powerful than Junior Elder Victor?”
“Impossible, as long as you observe carefully, you will be able to discover that those who can come to the Qingyun Hall are all disciples with outstanding martial arts talent.
“Moreover, the more talented one is, the faster one’s cultivation speed will be. With Junior Elder Victor’s cultivation talent, if he has awakened his spirit root, it will definitely be the top one.”
“What you said makes sense, but I still maintain my own point of view.”
“Senior Brother Huafeng is going to go on stage later. You just wait and see!”
Victor naturally heard the discussions behind him and only smiled faintly.
He estimated that they would only realize the rarity of his heavenly spirit root after the test was completed.
As early as a month and a half ago, he had already downloaded Zhang Lingren’s dual-attribute spirit root.
He had directly absorbed the wood attribute spiritual root. Unfortunately, at that time, the world was in a closed state and the spiritual energy was scarce. Although he had the Tree Building technique, the supply of the world was too little, so he could not directly use the spiritual root to cultivate.
Fortunately, Mount Qingyun was also considered a blessed land. After the spiritual energy recovered, it suddenly became abundant.
The test was still ongoing.
Hua Feng’s result appeared on the stone tablet.
“Spiritual root aptitude: True spirit root
“Spiritual root attributes: Wood, water, fire
“Spirit gathering realm: Level Five.”
Seeing that Hua Feng and Gu Xu were at the same realm, Gu Xu felt much more comfortable in his heart as if he had drunk a soothing herbal tea.
Although in terms of martial arts, Hua Feng was at the intermediate stage of the first-rate realm, which was obviously much stronger than Gu Xu who had just entered the beginner stage of the first-rate realm.
However, judging from the strength of the stone tablet, they were all in the fifth level of the spirit gathering realm. It seemed that there was still a big gap between the Immortal Dao and the Martial Dao.
After Hua Feng’s test, everyone could be considered to have some understanding of the test method of this stone tablet.
“Last one, Song Qianqian.”
Hearing her father’s shout, Song Qianqian quickly ran out of the crowd. As soon as the young girl walked out, the crowd’s discussion immediately became much quieter. After all, this was the only female disciple of the Qingyun Sect.
The young girl quickly stepped forward and imitated him by placing her hand on the stone tablet.
A moment later, the stone tablet suddenly lit up.
However, in less than three seconds, the light on the stone tablet suddenly dimmed.
When the crowd in the main hall saw this situation, they all revealed astonished expressions.
This was the first time that something unusual had happened. This stone tablet was from the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be any problems.
So, the problem was on the little junior sister herself?
Looking at little junior sister’s disappointed expression, he felt a little funny.
He had already roughly analyzed the reason through the data panel.
Song Qianqian’s aptitude was not bad. Compared to Hua Feng and Gu Xu, she had a wind and water dual spirit root.
Among all the people in the hall, apart from Zhang Lingren, this was the second person who had a dual spirit root.
The main reason was that the little junior sister was only thirteen years old and had just reached the threshold of awakening her spiritual roots. She was still unable to directly awaken it on her own.
However, this opportunity was very hard to come by. Seeing Song Qianqian’s anxious look, Victor decided to help her.
The little junior sister had contributed to his previous realm’s rapid advancement.
Moreover, the extra spiritual roots in his body were not of much use for the time being.
Victor had a premonition that if he really ascended in the future, it would be very difficult for him to return after leaving the Qingyun Sect.
However, after staying in the Qingyun Sect for so long, he still owed something. If the Qingyun Sect could have a genius disciple, it would be a consolation.
In the next moment, with a thought, Victor added the remaining water attribute spirit root in the storage to Song Qianqian’s body.
