Chapter 163 Temporary Master
"What's going on?" everyone was puzzled.
"Could it be that this auspicious fortune stick was destroyed by their overly powerful spiritual power?" someone speculated.
"That's impossible. This is a fifth-tier magic weapon. The highest level here is just foundation building. How could it break the best fortune?"
"What's that?"
The Su family's steward was also confused.
This situation has never happened before! Xu Qiuqian also found it strange.
"This lucky lot was working just now, how come it's suddenly useless?"
"cough."
Xiao Pingyue next to him suddenly coughed for no apparent reason.
Xu Qiuqian looked over.
Xiao Pingyue whispered: "Is there a possibility... that it's because of you?"
"Me?" Xu Qiuqian was puzzled. "Because of what?"
"Think about what you just did to this magic weapon?"
What did she do? She didn't do anything.
He just touched the signature and looked regretful, saying that he quite liked this magic weapon.
After all, although this magic weapon is an inanimate object, it gives her a very cute feeling.
Especially when he repeatedly ignored others and came to her, she liked him even more.
etc.
Could it be that the good fortune sticks won’t move because of what she said?
It should be... impossible, right? Just when everyone was puzzled and the steward of the Su family had asked the Su family to send this news back to the Su family, someone saw Xu Qiuqian sending a spiritual power towards the best fortune.
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
It was just a few lucky moments, but he really thought he was... Everyone who saw it suddenly widened their eyes in shock.
Because they saw the person who had been running towards Xu Qiuqian without moving.
Although he was clearly just flying towards Xu Qiuqian, others could see a sense of impatience in his flying.
The Su family's steward was also stunned.
Xu Qiuqian held the best fortune stick in his hand, looking surprised.
"Is it really because of me? Could it be that this lucky sign has consciousness?"
"No." Xiao Pingyue explained, "Although the fifth-grade one is considered a top-grade magic weapon for us, it is at best a mid-grade one. A mid-grade magic weapon cannot produce a magic spirit. Only a high-grade ninth-grade one can produce a magic spirit."
Moreover, weapon spirits cannot be created casually.
The birth of a spirit weapon often requires at least a thousand years of gestation.
"It behaves this way because your spiritual roots match its properties, and your consciousness affects it invisibly, so it behaves according to your ideas."
Xu Qiuqian didn’t quite understand. Wasn’t this a sign of developing consciousness?
"You may not understand this explanation, so let me put it another way. When you said that just now, were you thinking in your heart that it would be great if you could get this magic weapon?"
"Uh...indeed."
"Because your spiritual root is too high, and this magic weapon is ownerless, it matches your attributes. When you inject spiritual power into the magic weapon several times, it is equivalent to temporarily binding with it and becoming its temporary master. Its behavior is not its own, but you make it do so unconsciously. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xu Qiuqian suddenly understood.
I see.
I didn't expect there was such a thing as temporary binding.
The other monks in the hall also looked amazed when they heard it.
They had traveled far and wide, but had never heard of such a thing.
"But this phenomenon is indeed very difficult to occur. It can only be said that your spiritual root points should be very high, at least above eight, and it is very compatible with its attributes. This situation will only occur due to various coincidences."
"Spiritual root point is above eight?!" someone blurted out, shocked.
What does it mean to have more than eight spiritual roots? Seven or more is rare, and eight or more are disciples that all major families and sects will definitely regard as key training.
"My spiritual root point is nine."
When the words came out, everyone took a deep breath.
This is not over yet. Xiao Pingyue smiled and said, "Let me guess. You should be a natural spiritual root, right?"
"Yes, single earth spiritual root."
Everyone gasped again.
What does it mean to have a spiritual root with nine spiritual roots? This is something that all the major families and sects want to scramble for!
How could such a genius appear in Yancheng?
She should go to Pingfeng City! Even in Pingfeng City, she is an existence that people look up to! "No, if your spiritual root is nine, how come you are only at the twelfth level of Qi Refining? I think you should be nineteen or twenty, right?"
For such a genius, practicing is as easy as drinking water. With her affinity for earth aura, she can quickly improve her cultivation even without practicing deliberately.
Xu Qiuqian didn't want to hide it and just mentioned it briefly.
"My spiritual veins were damaged before, and they were only repaired two or three months ago." She said with a guilty look, "It's true that my cultivation was a little slow."
"???"
Not to mention how miraculous it is that the spiritual vein was repaired after being damaged. It was only repaired two or three months ago. In just these two or three months, he has cultivated to the twelfth level of Qi Refining?
Even with this, you still think you are slow in cultivation? This is not a genius! This is simply a monster! Everyone was calm, but also full of emotion and anger, envious, jealous, and wanted to beat up Xu Qiuqian's face that was full of superiority.
The monk who had just raised his voice in doubt wished he could slap himself in the face.
Let you talk dirty!
The steward of the Su family was also extremely shocked, but fortunately he quickly realized that he had important matters to attend to today.
"In this case, can Fellow Daoist Xu untie the bond with the best fortune?"
Xu Qiuqian blinked, looking innocent.
“But I don’t know how to remove it.”
She didn't even know how she had bound herself just now.
The Su family's steward looked at Xiao Pingyue.
Xiao Pingyue really wanted to use this to threaten the Su family's steward to tell the truth, but he knew it was impossible.
The Su family wanted to use this opportunity to become a big family, so the steward of the Su family would definitely not agree. He also didn't want to use this method. Since the Su family cared so much about this competition, they intended to step on the Xiao family to get to the top...
His eyes fell on Xu Qiuqian, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he had an idea.
Then let them try their best to get nothing.
Not only will it be in vain, but it will also become a stepping stone for Xu Qiuqian to rise to the top.
"It's very simple. You just have to stop thinking about getting this magic weapon."
Xu Qiuqian was a little embarrassed: "But I really want it."
"...Then think about it. If the lucky numbers can be used, you can get more spirit stones. You can buy as many lucky numbers as you want."
"That makes sense. I suddenly don't want it anymore."
After saying that, she handed the best lot to the steward of the Su family.
The Su family's steward looked suspicious.
“Is that all?”
"That's all."
So, the steward of the Su family threw the best fortune stick into the air with half belief and half doubt.
The monks in the hall also used their spiritual power again with half belief and half doubt.
This time, the lucky number finally did not remain motionless like before, but like the first time, it swayed and fell on top of a person's head.
The Su family’s steward said in advance: “The second time was because of Fellow Daoist Xu, so this time, it’s our Su family that goes first.”
Only if the Su family says no, will it be the Xiao family's turn.
Xiao Pingyue agreed.
The monk was so excited that he went straight to the stage.
"I want Futo!"
Oh no.
Thank you Zhou Xi for the reward [500 starting coins]! Thank you! Heart~ (End of this chapter)
