If the bragging comes true, then it doesn’t count as bragging.

Everyone followed Zhao Yanran's eyes and looked over.

A winding stone staircase leads from the foot of Fuyun Mountain to the top of the mountain.

There seems to be a spirit floating above the stone steps.

It's not simple at first glance.

These are the stone steps built by the sect's construction order.

There is a gravity formation engraved on it.

When the gravity array is turned on.

People walking on it will feel the gravity several times their own.

The higher the level, the more terrifying the gravity you feel.

For example.

When you step on the first step, you will feel 1 times your own gravity.

When you step on the first step, you will feel 2 times your own gravity.

When you step onto the 100th step, you will feel 10 times your own gravity.

If you can step onto the 999th step, it will be close to 100 times the gravity.

How terrifying is 100 times gravity.

That can directly crush a person to the ground.

It's like it's stuck to the ground with 502 glue. You can't stand up even if you want to.

Of course, this is for ordinary people.

If you are a monk.

You want to use your spiritual power to resist for a while, and you want to overcome the influence of gravity on you.

That doesn't work either.

The more spiritual power you use, the more terrifying the gravity will be.

Anyway, gravity is a multiple of the force your body can exert.

In short, this formation is not a test of a person's strength, but more of a competition of willpower.

Only those with a strong will can reach the top of the mountain.

Regarding the details of the gravity formation, Zhao Yanran did not discuss it in detail with anyone.

Instead, he continued.

"If you don't have spiritual roots and want to join the sect, that's fine, but you need to walk up more than 800 stone stairs."

"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said, let's start testing the spiritual roots."

Zhao Yanran waved her hand.

Immediately, some handyman disciples moved a spiritual stone into the square.

Measure Lingshi.

It is a natural stone that can test spiritual roots.

This stone is very rare.

Only some sects with good strength will have spirit-testing stones.

Spiritual roots have a total of 5 attributes.

They are the golden spiritual root, the wood spiritual root, the water spiritual root, the fire spiritual root, and the earth spiritual root.

Each of these spiritual roots has a special color.

They are white, cyan, black, red and yellow.

If you are a person with golden spiritual roots, when your hand touches the spirit-detecting stone, a white light will light up on the spirit-detecting stone.

The brighter the white light, the higher the qualifications of the spiritual root.

On the other hand, it means that the monk has a better future.

Under the organization of handyman disciples.

The disciples of the family lined up in long lines, preparing to test their spiritual roots.

Next to the spirit-detecting stone.

There stood a handyman disciple.

The handyman disciples watched the changes on the spirit-testing stone intently.

While announcing the results.

"Golden Spiritual Root, pass."

"Two spiritual roots of wood and earth, pass."

"The spiritual roots of the three systems of gold, water, and wood, pass."

"No spiritual roots, pass."

"Uh, little brother, what does pass mean?" The boy who was passed asked with a confused look on his face.

The handyman disciple glanced at the younger brother: "It means if you fail, you will be eliminated."

"Uh, which dialect is this from?"

"I don't know either. I heard this word from Senior Sister Zhao Yanran."

"Uh, okay." The eliminated disciple looked disappointed.

Return to his father.

His father is a small patriarch.

There are too many people in the square.

Only those waiting for the test can go in and queue up, and their family members can only wait outside.

Seeing his son come out.

His father asked him with a concerned look on his face.

"Son, what kind of spiritual root do you have?"

The son looked heartbroken.

"It hurts, it hurts too much."

"I didn't expect that my mighty future emperor would fail in a small spiritual root test."

My father was confused when he heard this.

Then he understood what his son meant.

If there is no spiritual root, there is no spiritual root.

What kind of future emperor?

Who did you learn to be so thick-skinned from?

My father was a little disappointed.

But there is no blame. After all, things like spiritual roots are innate and cannot be forced.

"Then let's wait here until the rest of our family has finished testing before going home."

The son shook his head.

"No, it's impossible for me, Sikong Zhen, to admit defeat. Master Zhao said that as long as I can walk up the 800 stone stairs, I can still join the Fuyun Sect."

When Sikong Zhen looked at the 999-step stone staircase not far away, his eyes were extremely firm.

"Son, why don't we forget it."

Sikong Zhen's father, Sikong Da, glanced at his son and said hesitantly.

"Why forget it?" Sikong Zhen didn't understand.

Sikong Da said: "It is a gravity formation. People who walk up will feel that they are very heavy. Just now, my father had nothing to do, so he went for a walk on the stone steps. After walking more than 100 steps, he almost lost his legs. If it’s broken, you can’t walk at all.”

"Well, how did you get down?" Sikong Zhen asked curiously.

"Ahem, this, my father climbed down smoothly." Speaking of this, Sikong Da was also a little embarrassed.

"So, I suggest you don't try it either."

"No, dad, believe me, I can definitely become a monk."

"But how can you cultivate if you don't have spiritual roots?"

"The quick-breaking stone can only detect ordinary spiritual roots. Special mutated spiritual roots cannot be detected, but special spiritual roots can also be cultivated. I have always felt that I may be a mutated thunder spirit root, so I am going to try one time."

Sikong Zhen said with clenched fists.

He is Sikong Zhen, but he is the man who wants to become the King of Thunder and Lightning.

Seeing my son so determined.

Sikong Da did not stop it.

"Then go ahead and give it a try. Don't force it. If you really can't bear it, come down. I heard them say that if you forcefully carry it, the gravity will crush a person's internal organs."

"Okay, I know."

……

the other side.

Xiao Huohuo was queuing up with a group of Xiao family children.

He listened to what the handyman disciple in front of him said from time to time.

"Pass...pass...pass...pass...pass...pass."

I fell into deep thought.

He is thinking about a problem.

That is.

In this world of cultivating immortals, speaking Chinese is already outrageous.

Why do you still speak foreign languages?

Are there other time travelers in this world?

Xiao Huohuo thought for a long time.

Didn't even understand.

It was his turn to test.

Xiao Huohuo walked forward and put his hand on the spirit-testing stone.

In the spotlight.

The spirit-detecting stone lit up with one, two, three, or five rays of light.

The handyman disciple glanced at him.

Silently announced: "Five elements mixed spiritual roots, pass."

The Five Elements Spiritual Root is a waste spiritual root recognized by the world of cultivation.

Because of this kind of spiritual root, he is notoriously slow in practice.

For others who only have one spiritual root, they can break through by cultivating one spiritual root to its full capacity.

His five-element spiritual roots must be cultivated to the peak level at the same time before he can break through to the next level.

but.

Following the announcement by the handyman disciple, there was no ridicule at all.

Instead, I remembered the whispers.

"I have four spiritual roots, and he has five spiritual roots. Brother, wait for me." A disciple who originally had four spiritual roots was looking disappointed, but he heard that Xiao Huohuo had five spiritual roots.

He instantly became overjoyed and chased after him enthusiastically.
