Chapter 25: Peculiar Spiritual Root.
"Ah?" Long Aotian was dumbfounded, "But the benefactor's appearance has not changed in these thirty years. Besides cultivators, who can stay young for such a long time?"
"Uh this is a bit complicated to explain, I'll tell you later." It seems that the last time the system uninstalled, it incidentally traveled her through time and space, so she still had the same appearance even though thirty years had passed. "By the way, since you started cultivating, why did you not directly enter Spiritual Cultivation?"
Long Aoaian smiled a little embarrassedly and explained, "I also thought about what the benefactor said. But if I changed to Spiritual Cultivation, I would have to start from the beginning and destroy all my cultivation levels I've accumulated in years. Besides, my Spiritual Root's qualification is also poor "
He turned around and pulled out a crystal ball for testing Spiritual Roots from the bookshelf and showed it to Shi Xia. The five colors of red, yellow, blue, green and gold immediately appeared on that ball.
The five elements of the miscellaneous Spiritual Roots, well, his Spiritual Roots are indeed too poor.
"With these qualifications, I'm afraid it's quite difficult to build a foundation." He scratched his head in embarrassment, "My current cultivation level is already equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage of Spiritual Cultivation. It seems my cultivation level is at a bottleneck here, and will not advance. Besides, martial arts cultivation is not limited to Spiritual Roots, so I can teach more disciples who have mixed or no spiritual roots just like me."
Shi Xia patted his shoulder in understanding. I understand the pain of being a waste material!
Suddenly, he thought of something, and asked somewhat anxiously, "benefactor will not resent me for passing the technique to others, right?"
"Since this gong method book is given to you, then it's yours." Shi Xia waved her hand carelessly, "It's your choice to whom you want to pass these methods."
She is not short on gong method books, there is still a pile of them rotting in her bag, even though she didn't have any Spiritual Roots ah!
Long Aotian became more and more excited at her generosity, his eyes were full of gratitude, "Many thanks to the benefactor! You are worthy of being my benefactor. Such a kind and generous heart.By the way, what Spiritual Root does the benefactor has?"
The corners of Shi Xia's mouth twitch, she really didn't want to mention her black history. Can't you poke me where it hurts? She took the ball from his hand as she said, "I am way worse than you, there is no "
Her words had not finished, when suddenly, the entire ball lit up like a light, emitting a white light. It was so bright that it could make people go blind bright.
"White " Long Aotian was stunned as he stared at the bright ball, "What kind of Spiritual Root is this white?"
"I also don't know ah." She Xia was confused, didn't they say I have no Spiritual Roots?
The Spiritual Roots Testing Sphere generally shows only five colors that Long Aotian had measured before. Unless it is a double attribute Spiritual Roots, the colours are always constant. And there are only three kinds of double attribute/mutant Spiritual Roots. Ice, Wind, and Thunder. Thunder spiritual root appears as lightning, Ice spiritual root appears as icicles, and Wind spiritual root appears as wind blades. But what does this bright light mean? Is it a sign that she has the potential to go bald?
"Has the benefactor never tested her Spiritual Roots?"
"Uh " tested, but never lit up ah.
"Then have you ever checked your meridians internally?"
"What do you mean by checking meridians internally?"
"" Long Aotian froze before pulling out a booklet, "This is the basic technique for Immortal Cultivators to induce Qi into the body. Internal vision is necessary when viewing meridians at the time of inducing Qi. At that time, you can also see your own Spiritual Root. Benefactor, do you want to try this method?"
Shi Xia was excited about the method and directly took the booklet from him, forgetting to be polite. She also wants to figure out what's going on. As they were having a meal, she still continued to ask questions before coaxing Niu Niu to sleep.
After all, Niu Niu is still a child, and today, she queued all day to test the Spiritual Roots in the city. As soon as she went back to the room, she fell asleep.
But Shi Xia couldn't sleep, all kinds of thoughts were running wildly in her heart. Too many things happened recently, which made her feel more suspicious as if something was very wrong. Since the day that phone call came to her cellphone, this Cultivation Realm seemed to have become more different.
Phone!
Shi Xia remembered her phone and quickly pulled it out from her storage bag. Before, she didn't have the time to carefully examine it, so now that she has got the time, she can't miss it. She just put the phone next to the gong method book given by Long Aotian when suddenly, a white light burst out from the phone and the book instantly flew into the phone screen.
Sucked in! (? )
What happened, she hurriedly looked at the phone screen, and found that the app with the word Cultivation was still there, but at the lower right corner of the app, an additional "1" appeared. Is this a message update?
This app is a little too advanced, right?
She couldn't help but poke the screen and open the app. The screen that showed up was as same as before, with a vast map taking over the whole screen. But an additional line written in black font appeared at the bottom: Obtained Mixed Element Badge*1.
She poked the line, and at once, the screen of the phone flashed, emitting a brighter white light. It slowly rose from the phone's screen with a hexagonal shape, when the light died down a little, a silver-gray plaque was seen floating above the phone.
It seems it really is a badge, but it can be taken out of the phone? What exactly did the system do to her phone? Get out of my small Apple iPhone6 ah!
Shi Xia fumbled with it for a long while, she didn't know what this thing was really for. She clicked on the lock screen button and the badge went back in the phone. Since she couldn't figure it out, she decided to put it aside first.
Shi Xia asked Long Aotian about the method of drawing Qi into the body, and how people naturally cultivate.
Although she still thought it was impossible that she suddenly had a Spiritual Root, it wouldn't stop her from trying, let's just try once and see how it is. So she simply closed her eyes, tried to quiet her mind, relaxed her thoughts, and started to guide the Qi into her dantian. Perhaps because of the quiet night, she sat for almost an hour, and only then did she see a thin ray of light in her vision, which was originally dark. The thin light source became bigger and bigger, like a tidal wave that drove away all the darkness and turned into a bright light.
A bead of light suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, the bead was huge, filling the entire field of vision and seemed to be pressing down. Shi Xia was startled and opened her eyes immediately.
Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, she took a few deep breaths to slow down her breathing and began to question herself, what was that just now? Is that the internal vision that Long Aotian was saying about? And what is that bead? Is it my spiritual root? Shouldn't it be looking like a root? Why is it round ah!
After a moment of hesitation, she decided to go back in and take a look. Closing her eyes again, she tried to concentrate. With the previous experience, it took her less than a quarter of an hour before she found the feeling, and soon entered the bright space. Then she saw several large beads hanging above almost two-thirds of the space. The beads were white, and looked somewhat familiar. After careful observation, she even saw some variety of golden patterns faintly floating on the surface of the beads.
White crap! Isn't this the dragon pearl she picked up? Why is it here?
Could it be that the thing Kong Yang threw into her mouth when she was leaving, was this!?
With how brightly it was shining when she was measuring her Spiritual Root, was it because of the dragon pearl? Thinking of Kong Yang at the time, it seemed he had helped her big this time. Could it be that this dragon pearl had become her own Spiritual Root?
But her cheap brother said that the Spiritual Root is equivalent to a set of meridians for cultivating. The Spiritual Roots measuring sphere measures those meridian and shows the expected results in various colours. But because her Spiritual Root is a dragon pearl, it couldn't measure her Root ah.
But it didn't seem like the dragon pearl only gave her a Spiritual Root, she couldn't help but start to wander her eyes around, and carefully look everywhere inside her dantian. The place, just below the dragon pearl, looked a little different than everywhere. There was a small slit under the dragon pearl, as if there was something about to burst out.
She focused on that place, inside, the tip of a small bud glowing in pure white colour was seen. Although the colour of the bud was white, but it wasn't glowing as brightly as the dragon pearl. The tip bud appeared particularly white, but didn't shine as much.
This is my spiritual root!
Shi Xia burst in excitement, although the root was only a small tip, but it was still there. She was sure that it was her own Spiritual Root. Now, she also have a Spiritual Root. She will see who dares to say she is a waste material! Hahahaha
Huh? Why does it seems like I'm the only one who thought of it that way?
Uh forget it, I don't care about that detail.
I'm just happy!
Suppressing the joy in the heart, she stayed seated in her place. She wanted to rush out the door and laugh out loud to the world, pointing her finger at them and boast about her Spiritual Root. But she wanted to try how people cultivate. She always heard about the method but never had the opportunity to try. So she suppressed the joy in her heart and concentrated on gathering the Qi. After concentrating for a while, she no longer focused on her body, and began to sense the surroundings. Just in a short time, she felt the steady breathing of the girl next to her, as well as the insects chirping outside the room.
Shi Xia continued to focus and relax her body as she concentrated on feeling everything around her, not letting go of a single detail. She herself did not know how long it took before she found that the surrounding slowly changed, it was an empty surrounding just now, but suddenly, it lit up with various colors of light, red green yellow all kinds of colors.
This is the Qi!
Shi Xia became excited again, she remembered what the teachers of Xiu Ling Peak taught and also what her cheap brother said. She has to concentrate on the colour of Qi that is useful to her Spiritual Root. As long as she has a Spiritual Root, the corresponding Qi will have a sense of affinity, and it will enter her body with a little guidance.
Focus, focus
Damn! Why does it feel that all the Qis are very friendly ah! Is she such a friendly person? If she was, then why didn't she even have a boyfriend for all those years?
What to do? Which one should I accept?
Shi Xia fell in a difficult conjuncture. She gritted her teeth as she thought, fine! She will take all of them! Just as she thought so, all the light dots that were wandering around before came rushing towards her, fighting to be the first to enter her body.
For a moment, she just felt warm all over, and then with a poof', something burst out, it was her Spiritual Root. The tip grew slightly, like a small horn, and as that light shone down longer and longer, the white tip began to slowly open up and turn into a tender shoot.
This time, Shi Xia felt a lot more relaxed, she continued to maintain the state of drawing Qi into the body, nourishing her small spiritual root.
As Qi increased, those various colors of Qi seemed to get closer to her. She did not even need to guide them, they automatically entered her body. She couldn't help but feel that maybe she has a Spiritual Root with all the miscellaneous Spiritual Roots mixing together. None of the Qi refused her and even came closer and closer each time.
Wait!
What is that black thing in the corner? Why does it look so annoying? Shi Xia stared at the small black dot, and subconsciously drew out a little white Qi before throwing it over there. The moment the black spot and bright light touched, both of them disappeared with a sizzling sound.
Shi Xia froze, that black dot like thing must be a kind of Qi, right? But why is it black? The teacher did not say anything about it ah? She is close to all Qis, why does her body seem to hate that particular colour?
