Chapter 21 Chapter 21 The five spiritual roots are also collected!
Yun Miao's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed: "Master, please accept my disciple's greetings."
Master Chang was in a very good mood as he had accepted a talented disciple. He smiled lovingly and reached out to lift Yun Miao's arm.
"Disciple, there's no need to be so formal. You can wait until the disciple-taking ceremony to pay your respects. Now, follow me to the main hall. The other peak masters, elders, and other disciples are waiting for you."
He held Yun Miao's arm and took a step forward. Yun Miao felt a flash before his eyes, and the next second he found himself standing in an ancient and magnificent hall.
At the deepest part of the hall, there was a high platform with a group of people sitting on it. Her head master had already sat at the top seat. There was also a group of people standing in the open space below the platform, including Huo Xin, Tan Xiaobai and others.
She stood between the two groups, in the very center of the hall, before her a two-meter-tall pale crystal. Beside the crystal stood a male disciple of the Xuantian Sect whom she had met before on the immortal boat.
Male disciple: "Junior sister, please come forward and place your hand on the awakening stone."
Is this the awakening stone that Huo Xin mentioned before?
Yun Miao followed his instructions and raised his hand to press on the Awakening Stone, but he did not see any changes.
The male disciple stepped forward puzzledly: "Strange, why is there no response?"
He raised his hand and clapped it a few times, but the Awakening Stone still showed no change.
Jianfeng Peak Master Che Ruojin said: "It shouldn't be a problem with the Awakening Stone..."
He waved his sleeves, and the originally open door of the hall closed automatically. The light in the hall immediately dimmed, and in this dim environment, the colorful light on the Awakening Stone was finally caught by everyone's eyes.
There was indeed nothing wrong with it, it was just that the light it emitted was too weak and was just obscured by the light outside the hall.
Huo Xin, Tan Xiaobai and others who were standing with other new disciples were stunned. You know, the mechanism of the Awakening Stone is that the number of spiritual roots will emit light of the same color. The brighter the light, the higher the grade of the spiritual root.
As far as they know, the fewer spiritual roots a cultivator has in his body, the higher the grade of the spiritual roots, the faster he absorbs spiritual energy, and the better his aptitude!
And now the Awakening Stone is emitting five colors of light, and all five of them are extremely faint. Doesn't this mean that Yun Miao is...
The hall was completely silent. The male disciple rubbed his eyes and stared in disbelief for a long time before announcing in a trembling voice, "The five spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, all of them are of the lowest grade!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the new disciples who lacked concentration immediately exploded.
"Five Spiritual Roots? I remember that the Five Spiritual Roots are the legendary useless spiritual roots, right?!"
"I finally know what the legendary rice grain light looks like. When I was a kid, the sunlight from my snotty nose was brighter than this one!"
"Not only does he have five spiritual roots, but each one is of the lowest quality. The speed at which he absorbs spiritual energy must be slower than a snail, right? Such useless spiritual roots are terrifying!"
"No, everyone just calls five spiritual roots useless spiritual roots. It doesn't mean that only five spiritual roots, each of which is of the lowest grade, are called useless spiritual roots. Low-grade and high-grade spiritual roots are both rare in the world, and five spiritual roots are even rarer than heavenly spiritual roots. To have such a combination... Oh my god, this girl is so unlucky."
The unlucky guy Yun Miao, who had overheard the whispers behind him, calmly withdrew his hand and turned to look at the white-bearded old man on the platform.
"Master, are you still accepting disciples?"
There was still silence on the platform, and everyone turned their heads silently to look at the leader at the top.
Ge Yan, Tian Laokou and the others had sincerely wanted to take the young girl in green as their apprentice. Unfortunately, Patriarch Feng Yin was too reckless and actually gave her the Heavenly Ladder. This thing was considered a top-grade magic weapon in the hands of the Xuantian Sect, but in the hands of a helpless girl, it was a hot potato.
The Heavenly Ladder, a magical weapon passed down through the ages by the Xuantian Sect, had long since become a symbol of the sect. If word of this were to spread, it would not only attract the covetousness of others but also easily affect the Xuantian Sect's reputation. Therefore, the Sect Leader deliberated again and again before deciding to accept the girl as his disciple.
This is actually a good thing for the head master. After all, which master would not like a talented disciple with excellent comprehension and extraordinary intelligence?
Just looking at the way Old Chang was grinning from ear to ear, you could tell how happy he was, but now...
Everyone carefully observed the headmaster's expression: well, his face was stiff, his eyes were fixed, his body was still in the human world, but his soul seemed to have been to the netherworld and hell.
But everyone can understand it. After all, the lowest-grade five spiritual roots are only slightly better than mortals without spiritual roots. It is completely objectively a rotten tree that cannot be carved. How can this be taught?
Unless this girl has another epiphany, she might never reach the eighth level of Qi Refining in her lifetime, right?
But how easy is it to have an epiphany?
Those of them who could become the peak masters and elders of the largest sect in the world are naturally geniuses among geniuses. The youngest one alive today is five hundred years old, but the number of people who have had sudden enlightenment can still be counted on the handful of one.
Sect Leader Chang understood the meaning of "five spiritual roots, lowest grade" better than anyone else. That's why he was struck by lightning and stood frozen in silence upon hearing those words. It was as if he could already see his own tragic future, ruined in the education world, mocked day and night by his sworn enemies.
But when he heard the voice of "Master" filled with sadness and pleading, he felt his heart soften and he slapped the armrest of the chair and stood up suddenly.
"Collect! Must collect!"
"Since I have accepted you as my disciple, there is absolutely no reason for me to regret it. Let alone the lowest-grade five spiritual roots, even if you have... even if you have... the lowest-lowest-grade five spiritual roots, I will definitely accept you!"
"If those damned old ghosts dare to laugh at you, I will definitely tear their mouths apart with my Earth-Splitting Claw, stuff their mouths with pig manure, then beat them into fish balls with my Bones-Splitting Hand and Ten-Motion Fist, and finally tie them up with the Immortal Binding Rope and throw them into Lake Li to feed the fish!"
The voice of the old man with white beard became higher and higher, and his aura also rose steadily. Invisible air currents made his white beard and sleeves fly, and his eyes flashed with murderous light, as if as long as his mortal enemies appeared in front of him, he would immediately provide a one-stop service of killing and burying the bodies for free.
The disciples who were originally whispering under the platform felt an invisible yet powerful pressure suddenly enveloped the entire hall. They were like young rabbits being stared at by a tiger. They were instantly unable to speak or move, and could only stand stiffly in place, unable to even turn around and run away.
Tian Laokou quickly stepped forward to support Master Chang, "Master, calm down first...none of what you said has happened yet, there's really no need to overthink it."
"Those sworn enemies of yours are all prominent figures. You could just beat them into fish balls and fry them right there. Why bother bringing their bodies all the way back? If others discovered this, it would have a very bad impact on the sect."
Shui Yaoguang said in a cold tone, "Littering is prohibited in Xuantian Sect. Violators will be punished with cleaning duties ranging from one month to ten years, depending on the circumstances."
Ge Yan reminded: "Master, the disciples are all watching."
Sect Leader Chang paused, lowered his gaze to meet the trembling disciples below the platform.
He coughed dryly, quickly put away the fierce look on his face, stroked his forked beard, pulled up his clothes, and sat back as if nothing had happened, turning into the immortal-looking leader of the Xuantian Sect again.
"Well, since you have entered my Xuantian Sect, I, as the Sect Leader, have the responsibility to teach you and answer your questions. Since you don't understand the wonders of the Five Spiritual Roots, let me explain a few more words."
"In fact, whether it's the records in ancient books or the Jianyuan and Zhongsheng periods 40,000 years ago, five spiritual roots are rare and top-grade qualifications."
"Although the Heavenly Spiritual Root absorbs spiritual energy the fastest and the Five Spiritual Roots the slowest, it has one advantage that the Heavenly Spiritual Root can never match, and that is that the Five Spiritual Roots secretly conform to the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth."
"Once a cultivator with five spiritual roots comprehends the principles of the mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements, they can fuse the five distinct magical powers within their bodies into the true power of the five elements, achieving the legendary Five Elements Dao Body! They absorb spiritual energy at a speed far exceeding that of natural spiritual roots. From then on, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth... and the cycle continues endlessly!"
"Unfortunately, cultivators with the Five Spiritual Roots are even rarer than those with Heavenly Spiritual Roots, only one in ten thousand. The initial stages of cultivation are too slow, and the Five Elements Dao Body is too difficult to cultivate. Only those with great perseverance and enlightenment can achieve it. As a result, the inheritance of the Five Elements Law and the Five Elements Dao Body has gradually been cut off."
"This is why, over the past ten thousand years, some ignorant people have spread rumors and regarded the Five Spiritual Roots as useless. It's truly sad to say..."
Sect Leader Chang stroked his beard and looked at the disciples below the stage, his face full of kindness: "I am saying this, do you understand?"
The disciples felt their hearts tighten when he looked at them, and immediately shouted loudly: "Understood!"
Sect Leader Chang mistakenly thought that he had successfully restored his image and nodded with satisfaction. Then he looked at Yun Miao in front of the Awakening Stone and encouraged him.
"My dear disciple, don't overthink it. Just remember that as long as you have perseverance and persistence, and practice hard day and night, you will definitely gain something."
Yun Miao's face was serious: "I understand."
The players gradually understood everything. It turns out that the game set her up as a loser who makes a comeback. Although it is a bit old-fashioned, the classic will never go out of style.
I think her main quest after this should be to comprehend the power of the Five Elements, achieve the Five Elements Dao Body, beat up the faces of those NPCs behind her who are crickets, and then, in front of everyone's shocked, admiring, and respectful gazes, step on her left foot and ascend to heaven in broad daylight! Hehehehe!
When Master Chang saw her resolute and stubborn look, he couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.
The author has something to say:
----------------------
In the eyes of Master Chang, Yun Miao is weak, helpless and pitiful. QAQ
Yun Miao's own eyes: This game is so easy! So easy! Hehehehe!
