Immortal and Martial Supreme Master

Chapter 67 Grade 10 Spirit Root

"Tenth Grade Spirit Root!" The white-haired old man said in a trembling voice.

There were only four or five rank ten spiritual roots in the history of the entire continent. The earliest one was more than 5,000 years ago. All of these characters were exceptionally talented geniuses who eventually became giants.

Now that the youth in front of him actually possessed a rank ten spirit root, how could he not be surprised?

Others might not know what a rank ten spiritual root meant, but he knew that those with rank ten spiritual roots could break through to Martial Emperor without any bottlenecks in their spiritual energy cultivation.

What was the concept of Martial Emperor level?

On the Tian Yuan Continent, there were several Martial Emperor level experts with one hand. It could be seen just how rare Martial Emperor level experts were.

"Elder, did you pass the first test of my outer sect examination?" Qin Yun smiled and said.

"Yes, of course. Not only did you pass the first item, you didn't have to pass the second item. You went straight to the outer door." The old man hurriedly said.

Qin Yun smiled gently. He knew that exposing a Grade 10 Spirit Root would definitely cause a huge stir. At that time, this old man would definitely report this news to the inner sect. Perhaps he could directly join the ranks of inner sect disciples, or even elite disciples.

What puzzled Qin Yun was that the two disciples at the foot of the mountain had also discovered this matter, but why hadn't they reported it to the sect? Otherwise, how could there be no movement at all?

Qin Yun couldn't figure it out.

In fact, the two fat disciples were indeed prepared to tell the sect about this matter. However, they were sent out to carry out a mission temporarily and have yet to return. That was why Qin Yun did not cause a stir in the sect. Otherwise, Qin Yun would have been taken out of the sect's servant disciples long ago.

What a joke. A peerlessly good seedling with a tenth grade spiritual root would be ignored by a handyman disciple. This was a bit too extravagant. Even the Great Yan Empire would not dare to be so extravagant.

The two disciples on the side, He was also frightened by Qin Yun's innate spiritual roots, especially the extremely arrogant youth. When he saw ten kinds of brilliance appear on the stone pillar, his first feeling was that the stone pillar was broken. Thus, he hurriedly ran to the stone pillar and tried a few times before he dared to confirm that Qin Yun really possessed a Grade 10 spiritual root. This caused an indescribable sense of jealousy to surge in his heart.

'"What's wrong with a Grade 10 Spirit Root? Don't tell me you don't have to participate in the second round of the outer sect examination? Perhaps he's just a piece of trash, and his strength isn't enough to defeat a puppet at all? Could it be that the elders are going to break the rules of the sect?" The youth was extremely unconvinced.

The white-haired elder's expression was gloomy. The favorable impression he had of this young man disappeared. However, just as he was about to berate this young man, Qin Yun said first, "Elder, let me continue participating in this second examination!"

"But" The old man hesitated. He seemed to want to say that Qin Yun deserved this. However, when he saw Qin Yun's resolute gaze, he immediately swallowed all the words in his throat and said, "Alright, since that's the case, then you can continue to participate in the second test. No matter what the final result is, you will join the outer sect."

Qin Yun nodded. Actually, he didn't care whether he participated in the second test or not. However, the words of the youth in front of him angered him, so he was prepared to attack this arrogant youth.

The youth glared at Qin Yun and coldly snorted with disdain, "Hmph, so what if it's a Grade 10 Spirit Root? Strength is everything."

Qin Yun did not reply. He only smiled coldly. This fellow was truly not an ordinary arrogant person. If he were to know his true strength, he did not know how this fellow would feel. Would he feel a burning pain on his face?

As for the other fellow, he did not show any hostility towards Qin Yun. Instead, he looked at Qin Yun with an envious expression and even took the initiative to run to Qin Yun's side to greet him.

"Hello, my name is Chen Cheng." The youth introduced himself.

"My name is Lin Yun!" Qin Yun replied.

"You really have a rank ten spirit root! How powerful!" Chen Cheng said excitedly.

Qin Yun smiled faintly and said, "Actually, although that youth is arrogant, there is one thing he is right about. That is, strength proves everything. Talent only means that you have a higher starting point than others."

Chen Cheng nodded seriously.

When the youth beside him heard Qin Yun's words, he snorted in disdain and revealed a mocking smile.

When the white-haired old man saw this scene, he felt more and more admiration for Qin Yun, and more and more dissatisfaction towards the arrogant youth.

Following that, the old man led the three of them to the second test venue, the Martial Arts Exercise Hall.

The second item of the outer sect disciple assessment was the strength assessment, which was also a test of one's actual combat ability. Of course, the actual combat here was not against people, but against puppets.

There were a total of five or four types of golden, silver, copper, and iron puppets. They corresponded to ninth level Heavenly Martial Cultivators, eighth level Heavenly Martial Cultivators, seventh level Heavenly Martial Cultivators, and sixth level Heavenly Martial Cultivators.

As long as you can defeat an iron-ranked puppet, you can obtain the qualifications to enter the outer sect. Of course, you can also choose to challenge a stronger puppet. As long as you win, you can obtain a higher reward.

Of course, Qin Yun and the others had also heard that there was a diamond grade puppet above the golden grade puppet. This kind of puppet could possess the strength of a first level Heavenly Martial Master, but no one had seen it before.

"Everyone knows the rules, right? Let's challenge the puppets one by one according to the order just now. Chen Cheng, you are the first. What level of puppets are you challenging?" The old man walked forward and said.

"I challenge the bronze puppet." Chen Cheng hesitated for a moment before replying.

Right now, he was at the Seventh Heaven stage, but he still had some confidence in dealing with a Copper grade puppet of the same level. He did not think that he could win against a Silver grade puppet of a higher level. Therefore, for the sake of safety, he chose a Copper grade puppet.

The old man nodded. The path of cultivation was steady and steady. This kind of person lived the longest.

Then, the old man waved his sleeve and a humanoid puppet that was nearly two meters tall appeared in front of everyone.

This puppet was made of bronze, and its entire body was extremely hard. It was also covered in magical patterns. Qin Yun was no stranger to these patterns. On the contrary, he had studied these things for a period of time. These patterns were actually formations.

Back then, Qin Yun had been reading more than half of the immortal dynasty's library. If he was asked what type of books he had read the most, he would definitely not have answered martial arts and martial skills, but formations.

The formation was extremely mysterious and obscure. It was divided into one to eighteen levels of formations. The corresponding power of each level of formation was also different. The formation on the puppet in front of him was the earliest entry level formation, not even a level 1 formation.

However, Qin Yun was slightly surprised. Since this bronze-ranked puppet used formations, then other-ranked puppets must also use formations. In this way, there might be an array mage in the Leiling Sect.

Formation mages were extremely rare existences. This required talent, and this talent was even more demanding than a martial artist's spiritual roots.

One out of a thousand people might have a martial artist suitable for cultivation, but one out of ten thousand people might not be suitable for cultivating formations. One could imagine how high the requirements of formations were for talent. Therefore, formation mages were extremely rare. Even rank 1 formation mages were extremely rare existences, let alone higher level existences.
