What exactly is the spiritual root in Chapter 16?



"But in this world of cultivation, cultivators are as numerous as hairs on a cow."

"Having spiritual roots is nothing special, let alone those without spiritual roots."

"Most of them are family members of the disciples, doing odd jobs at the foot of the mountain to tend to the spirit fields."

Upon hearing this, Fang Milu gave Tu Longjian a provocative look.

"Chunxiang, it seems you're in for a tough time."

Senior Brother Li asked in surprise, "What? This young lady who came here with me doesn't have any spiritual roots?"

Tu Longjian glanced at her indifferently and smiled flawlessly.

"That's not necessarily true."

Fang Milu choked, thinking to herself.

Hmph, let's see how long you can keep laughing.

I saved you because I didn't want to see you lose your life in vain.

I don't want you to continue following Brother Gan around.

Ideally, one should not be able to detect spiritual roots.

They watched from the foot of the mountain as Gan and I became a couple.

Soon it was their turn to have their spiritual roots tested.

A huge rock stood beside the mountain gate, gleaming with a faint light.

Someone ahead of them tested positive for both metal and earth elements and jumped up excitedly.

"I won! Dual spiritual roots!"

He started dancing wildly and gesturing wildly.

Some onlookers were filled with envy.

Some people were secretly jealous.

The consul, with a smile on his face, formally dragged him away.

One woman even tested positive for a single ice-type variant spiritual root, which drew gasps of amazement from the crowd.

They could still feel envious and jealous of those with dual spiritual roots.

When they encounter a single spiritual root, a talent that is beyond their reach.

They could only be envious.

Some quick-witted individuals have already begun to inquire about the woman.

"Brother, do you know that woman?"

"I don't know him. You're really lucky."

"A person with dual spiritual roots is qualified to become an inner disciple."

"A single spiritual root will surely be accepted by the elders and become their personal disciple."

"Tch, your knowledge is still limited."

"That's what the other person said dismissively."

"That's a variant of a single spiritual root! Its value is no less than that of an ordinary single spiritual root."

"We all know that spiritual roots are divided into five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth."

"Ice type, a variant of water type, is a genius that is one in a million!"

The crowd erupted in uproar and heated discussion.

However, some people who tested positive for the four spiritual roots were dejected.

Even worse, some people couldn't even detect any spiritual roots, and after crying and screaming, they were dragged away.

"I've saved up spirit stones for years! How can I not have a spiritual root?!"

It was finally their turn.

Fang Milu, a mix of excitement and trepidation, stepped forward first.

She reached out and touched the test stone.

The test stone flashed blue and green colors in succession.

"Congratulations, Junior Sister Fang, you have dual spiritual roots of water and wood."

Senior Brother Li congratulated him with joy.

Fang Milu stepped off the stage with a happy expression.

The second one was Gan Xiuming, who calmly walked forward.

Wow! Look! Look!

Someone excitedly tugged at the sleeve of the person next to them.

"The second variant of a single spiritual root!"

"It's the rarest Heavenly Spiritual Root!!!"

Wow, this year's admissions are truly full of hidden talents.

The test stone shone with a faint golden light, different from that of the metal element.

It perfectly complements the golden lotus above his head!

Not surprising at all!

Tu Longjian curled his lip.

The original owner's spiritual root was truly excellent; it's such a pity that he stole it away.

Gan Xiuming suppressed his joy and walked down amidst the praise of the crowd with a calm expression.

"Miss Chunxiang, why don't you give it a try too?"

He looked at Tu Longjian and said.

Deep down, she did hope that Tu Longjian could find out a good spiritual root.

Carrying him around like this wouldn't be a disgrace to him.

Tu Longjian calmly walked onto the stage and pressed his hand onto the testing stone.

A gasp of surprise came from the onlookers.

"What's wrong? What kind of spiritual root is it?"

The people behind excitedly tugged at the person in front and asked.

But the man who had exclaimed in surprise blushed slightly and said embarrassedly:

"I haven't seen the results yet. This young lady is absolutely stunning, and I got a little too excited..."

Everyone couldn't help but scoff.

However, looking up, the woman in front of him was indeed a sight to behold.

Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her hair was piled high like clouds, and her face was beautiful.

She stands out even among cultivators; one wonders how beautiful she will become after cultivating.

However, the beauty's brows were slightly furrowed, and her expression was calm.

Gan Xiuming watched from the side, feeling quite proud.

"Huh, it's been so long, why hasn't the testing stone reacted yet?"

Everyone snapped out of their daze.

Someone said sarcastically, "Isn't he probably just a good-for-nothing?"

Some people shook their heads and sighed.

"It's a pity that such a beautiful face was born into a mortal body; it's probably unfortunate."

"In the end, it might become a furnace cauldron!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the testing stone slowly lit up with a faint light, but it had no color.

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

"What does this mean? Could there be a mistake?"

"If it's a useless spiritual root, the testing stone won't react at all."

A woman dressed in a tight-fitting outfit began to tell her story.

"The five elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—correspond to yellow, cyan, blue, red, and brown, respectively."

"The number of attributes a spiritual root contains determines the number of different kinds of brilliance it will display."

Even the worst of the five spiritual roots will display a variety of colors.

"The brighter the color, the more it represents his attribute bias."

"Because there are too many impurities, cultivation is often not as effective as with a purer and more focused spiritual root."

"But this transparent light is something I've never heard of before!"

A simply dressed woman scratched her head and asked somewhat embarrassedly:
