This is a world with all sorts of spiritual roots. Single-element and dual-element spiritual roots are considered rare and precious, while those with five elements are mostly useless.
Single-elemental spiritual roots are further divided into metal, wood, water, fire, earth, etc., with lightning being the rarest.
Anyone who possesses a lightning-type spiritual root is essentially cheating.
Every time a cultivator advances in their cultivation, they face a tribulation of lightning. Simply put, from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, at the moment of Core Formation, the tribulation of lightning in cultivation will strike the cultivator.
Those cultivators who can withstand the pressure successfully form their core and advance to the Golden Core stage; those who cannot fail to form their core and may even suffer psychological trauma.
The elders recruiting disciples shouted this slogan.
The dark mass of people at the foot of the mountain all looked over at the same time.
The tall, handsome young man stood out from the crowd like a crane among chickens, his exquisitely handsome face showing a calm and composed expression as he was watched by everyone.
"Single spiritual root...and it's lightning-based..."
"My God, how lucky he is! It's so enviable!"
"Even if he only has dual spiritual roots, that would be fine. If he passes the trial, he'll definitely become a sought-after disciple by all the immortal venerables in the major spiritual sects!"
"Sigh, there's no comparison..."
A few people behind the boy, a girl whose appearance was barely considered pretty stared at him intently.
[Master, this person can be your cultivation subject; he is a pure Yang individual, a rare find even in a thousand years.]
Zhong Ziyan asked thoughtfully, "Really?"
If it's true, you can try approaching him.
"I understand," Zhong Ziyan said.
Men with pure Yang constitutions cultivate several times faster than ordinary people, which is far superior to women with pure Yin constitutions like her.
Although the men in the cultivation world are all quite good-looking, none of them can compare to the handsome young man.
If we were to describe him by his social standing, the boy's appearance would be considered exceptional.
The only pity is...
The boy's cultivation level was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, which was stronger than other cultivators, but he was ultimately not the strongest man.
In this dog-eat-dog world, those who are not strong enough will only be bullied.
Zhong Ziyan secretly resolved to stand out in the introductory trial and then find a powerful master.
Those cultivators who passed the spiritual root test almost all stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder of Trials.
Unlike others who climbed up quickly, Su Rongjin calmly and slowly stepped onto each step.
The Heavenly Ladder will create obstacles and pressure based on the cultivator's cultivation level.
He used a secret technique to suppress his cultivation to the early stage of Foundation Establishment, which made him one of the top cultivators among this group.
Many people who are new to cultivating immortality never manage to establish their foundation in their entire lives.
Cultivating the Tao can prolong life. In the early stages, foundation building can solidify one's appearance and prevent rapid aging. Each subsequent stage is a bottleneck.
If a cultivator remains at the Golden Core stage for too long and is unable to advance, or fails to advance, they will slowly age and eventually die.
"Why."
Suddenly, a soft, charming female voice rang out.
Many people on the steps turned around to look, but Su Rongjin continued walking forward.
Zhong Ziyan felt extremely embarrassed under the gazes of everyone around her.
She gritted her teeth and quickened her pace to catch up with the boy in front of her.
"Hello."
Su Rongjin turned her head and glanced at the pretty girl, asking, "What is it?"
It was always others who approached Zhong Ziyan; this was the first time she had taken the initiative to get close to a man, yet the boy remained indifferent.
Zhong Ziyan bit her lip and said, "My name is Zhong Ziyan. I have a single ice-type spiritual root. I'd like to make friends with you."
