Fu Cheng wasn't actually disbelieving; he could sense the changes in his body. He just couldn't believe that someone could so easily change a person's fate without paying any price.
Fu Cheng secretly sensed his own abilities while holding the spirit-testing stone.
The spirit-testing stone emitted light instantly, but unlike the three beams of light before, this time there was only one. Although it was a single spirit root, it was not as dazzling as a true single spirit root.
Fu Cheng was also delighted; both sides had only one spiritual root, so what did it matter?
After all, aren't there also top-grade single-spirit roots among genuine single-spirit roots?
The important thing is that his cultivation speed is now the same as those prodigies, so in the early stages, he is qualified to participate and stand on the same starting line as them.
As for what comes next, what if a better opportunity arises?
Before coming to Central City, he never expected to encounter such a good thing.
"Really?"
Fu Cheng's friend stepped forward in surprise, took the spirit-testing stone, and tested his own spiritual root. It remained unchanged; he had three spiritual roots, with the water element being the strongest.
Fu Cheng is different from him. Among the three spiritual roots, the strongest is the metal element, and now it has become a single metal spiritual root, making him a very good sword cultivator prospect.
While his friend was happy for Fu Cheng, he looked longingly at Fang Ruotang.
"Sect Master Fang, could you please help me as well? If you're willing to help me, I'll follow your lead from now on. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west. I'll even call a deer a horse!"
Fang Ruotang chuckled lightly; this person had just been trying to persuade Fu Cheng to come.
However, she wasn't a very self-centered person. Since they were all strangers, it was normal for them not to believe her, so she wasn't upset by his initial doubts.
Instead, she listened to him and said with a smile, "Alright! We have one more loyal believer. Come on!"
"I...okay! I'll definitely be obedient from now on and be the knife in your hand."
"No need! Just trust that I am the new Heavenly Dao."
To be honest, she has many capable people under her command, and such a small fry is not qualified to be her subordinate.
Using the secret technique again, the two extra roots were removed, leaving only the water spirit root.
"How...how did my cultivation level improve?"
"That's normal! After all, you used to have three spiritual roots, but now you only have one. I just took two of your extra spiritual roots, not the results of your previous cultivation."
It's like the difference between pouring water into three bowls at the same time and pouring water into one bowl.
Anyway, the water is there.
The other two empty bowls were taken away, but the water was not taken with them.
"Thank you, thank you!"
Fang Ruotang waved her hand dismissively, "If you really want to thank me, then give me a good talking-to, at least your friends and family should know!"
"Definitely! Definitely!"
Watching this person gesticulate wildly, their face flushed with excitement.
Fang Ruotang didn't bother him.
Instead, they looked at other people, and immediately someone raised their hand.
"Sect Master Fang, please help me. I am the head of the Chen family. Although my family's influence is not large, we still have several hundred people. If you help me, I will immediately make you a respected figure when I return."
"Sure!"
Fang Ruotang reached out and easily used her spiritual power to bind the Chen family head in front of her.
This was mainly because the head of the Chen family offered no resistance whatsoever.
Compared to the previous two, this one went a bit smoother, since I didn't have to waste my breath explaining.
Afterwards, Fang Ruotang only gave him one piece of advice: to keep his word. She didn't give him much of a chance to prove himself and then went on to help the next person.
In just a short time, several people were given a chance to change their fate.
They didn't leave; they just stood there, staring at Fang Ruotang with burning eyes, making Fang Ruotang glance at them several more times.
Fang Ruotang's senses are too sharp these days, and she can't stand being stared at like that. She thinks the other person has something to say, so she takes another look when there's a gap in the window.
"Alright, alright, stop blocking this place. Once you're done, leave. Stop staring at me like I'm some rare treasure!"
"You were a rare find to begin with. Once you return to your rightful place, we won't be able to see you even if we want to."
Fang Ruotang took a moment to process what Fu Cheng meant.
It should be said that she has returned to the rightful place of Heaven.
That makes sense, since they are now part of the Heavenly Dao, they certainly won't walk in this world with their physical bodies anymore.
At the very least, you should go to the spirit world.
Furthermore, according to the little mirror, she saved the living beings of this world, and her soul will be fully restored, and she will remember everything from the past.
When that time comes, the little mirror said she will probably return to her original body, but if she wants to come back, her consciousness can return to this world at any time.
Fang Ruotang didn't know what choices she would make after waking up, but one thing was certain: she would not stay in this world.
"Who knows? What if I go to the spirit world too?" Fang Ruotang replied with a smile.
Someone asked, "What spirit world?"
Fang Ruotang, realizing that this world had never been in contact with the spirit world, then explained what the spirit world was.
"It's the world between the cultivation world and the immortal world. Haven't you noticed that the spiritual energy in this world is not enough? Once you reach the Nascent Soul stage or above, cultivation becomes difficult. So, I will build a bridge to the Spirit World, so that cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage can go to the Spirit World to cultivate. The spiritual energy there is more abundant, and the chance of ascension is greater."
The surrounding cultivators were dumbfounded, yet also subtly excited.
What's this.
This is the new Heavenly Dao talking to them about the rules of the new world.
What merit or ability do they possess to be involved in such an important matter?
That's what she thought in her heart, but her mouth had its own will, and everyone started asking questions all at once, to which Fang Ruotang answered without reservation.
She desperately wants everyone to agree with her views.
Ideally, everyone should deeply imprint her consciousness in their minds, forming a unified whole.
This was the first time Fang Ruotang had done something like this, but she did it smoothly. Now, as she talked about it, she wished she could pull out a chair and grab a handful of melon seeds to give this group of people a good brainwashing.
Then, through their mouths, the word spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred.
Until it becomes a consensus that everyone accepts.
How can they be so easily fooled?
While Fang Ruotang was talking fluently, she was also complaining to Xiao Jingzi without any real thought.
The little mirror was helpless.
[Sir, let me reiterate, you are you! Try saying it from a different perspective. Given your skills and abilities, it's normal for them to believe you.]
[Alright! Anyway, these people are easy to fool, it's not difficult at all.]
Fang Ruotang looked lovingly at the group of silly kids in front of her.
Xiao Jingzi didn't think much of it at first, but upon closer inspection, she was delighted.
"My lord, have you noticed that your body has become stronger? The words you speak subtly carry the power of law, making them believe them to be truth."
【Huh? Really?】
During this period, Fang Ruotang has been receiving a constant influx of faith into her body, and her body and soul feel as if they are soaking in a warm hot spring, which is extremely comfortable.
The sensation was even stronger when she was drawing spiritual roots earlier, but she didn't react much. She was getting used to it and didn't expect that the quantity would lead to a qualitative change.
