The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 8 "The Best Spiritual Root"

After sending Chen Hu away, Matthew immediately entered the house and took out the spiritual stones he had saved.

"Let's test the spiritual roots first, and then leave Wangxian City." Matthew thought as he walked out with the spiritual stones.

The place where spiritual roots are tested is called Meiling Hall Pavilion, and Matthew passed by that door countless times.

Matthew, who was a little anxious, entered the Spirit-Searching Pavilion and immediately said to a monk sitting inside: "Master Immortal, I want to test my spiritual root qualifications."

"Well, you know the rules, ten spiritual stones." The monk replied lazily without even raising his eyelids.

"Understood." Upon hearing this, Matthew immediately took out the ten spiritual stones in his arms.

When the monk saw that Matthew had indeed taken out ten spiritual stones, a smile appeared on his face.

With a touch of his sleeves and robe, the spirit stone disappeared.

Immediately, he took out a transparent ball the size of an adult's fist and placed it in front of Matthew.

"Put your palm on it and it will be ready after ten breaths. If there is no spiritual root, the bead will not change in any way, and the spiritual stone will not be returned at that time." The monk pointed at the bead in front of Matthew and said.

"Boy, I understand." After Matthew took a deep breath, he placed his palm on the bead.

He had already inquired about the rules of the Spirit Testing Hall. No matter what the result, the ten spirit stones would not be returned.

He was very nervous now, and he kept praying in his heart that he must have spiritual roots, preferably the kind that would make others envious.

According to what he learned, there are many kinds of spiritual roots.

The worst is the five spiritual roots, which are often called waste spiritual roots. There are four equivalent spiritual roots, which are called pseudo-spiritual roots.

Monks with this kind of spiritual roots basically have no hope in cultivating immortals. They can't even cross the foundation building period, let alone live forever.

Only the information on the three spiritual roots can be called true spiritual roots.

After that, there are better double spiritual roots and single spiritual roots.

The most obvious difference between spiritual roots is the speed of cultivation.

For example, monks with single spiritual roots absorb and refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth much faster because of the single attribute of their spiritual roots.

In addition, different spiritual roots lead to different bottlenecks in cultivation.

Take the Five Spiritual Roots as an example. Not only do such monks practice extremely slowly, but they also need to spend a lot of time breaking through bottlenecks if they want to improve to a higher level.

However, monks with single spiritual roots have almost no bottlenecks before the elixir formation stage.

Therefore, people with single spiritual roots are often called Tianlinggen, which means they are the chosen ones.

In addition, spiritual roots also have various attributes, the most common ones are the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

However, there are exceptions to everything. In addition to the common five elements, some people also have different spiritual roots.

Anyone with spiritual roots other than the Five Elements is called a foreign spiritual root.

The currently known supernatural spiritual roots include ice-attributed spiritual roots, wind-attributed spiritual roots and thunder-attributed spiritual roots.

Alien spiritual roots and heavenly spiritual roots are both extremely rare spiritual roots. It is no exaggeration to say that one or two people with such spiritual roots can be found among a million people, which is considered a lot.

In addition, Matthew also knew the division of realms between monks.

From the lowest Qi refining stage, then to the foundation building stage, and then to the elixir forming stage, Nascent Soul stage and the spirit transformation stage.

Except for the division of Qi Refining Stage from one to thirteen levels, all other realms are replaced by four smaller realms: early stage, middle stage, late stage, and Dzogchen.

Matthew didn't know the difference between these realms. He only knew that monks in the Qi Refining Stage could live up to more than a hundred years old, while those in the Foundation Establishment Stage could live up to more than two hundred years old.

If the golden elixir can be condensed, the longevity will directly reach [-] years old, which is something that ordinary people dare not even think about.

But if one can further reach the Nascent Soul stage, the lifespan will be doubled again, reaching the terrifying age of a thousand years.

As for how many lifespans there are in the divine transformation stage, Matthew doesn't know. These things were all mentioned by the casual cultivators in Wangxian City.

No matter which monk he is, whenever he mentions Dan Formation or Nascent Soul monk, his eyes without exception reveal a look of desire.

For monks, only when they can reach the elixir formation can they truly enter the realm of immortality.

Everyone has dreams, and so does Matthew.

Of course he hopes that he can have heavenly spiritual roots or alien spiritual roots.

This thought had been lingering in his mind for several years.

In his opinion, even if it is not a particularly rare spiritual root, double spiritual roots or even three spiritual roots are acceptable.

But when the five different colors of light appeared in the spirit-measuring bead, Matthew was stunned.

"Five Spiritual Roots... No, it doesn't seem to be..." When Matthew was about to take back his palm in disappointment, he saw another halo appear in the spirit detecting bead.

Not only did Matthew notice it, but the monk also noticed the changes in the spirit-measuring beads, and let out a light sigh.

Immediately afterwards, two more haloes of light appeared in the spirit-measuring bead.

At this time, Matthew was completely dumbfounded.

"Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, and ice...eight attributes are combined into one body. I have been testing spiritual roots here for decades and have never seen such a weird spiritual root." After rubbing his eyes vigorously, the monk couldn't help but He uttered a curse word.

"Master Immortal, how is my spiritual root?" Matthew was in a state of confusion and his head was in a mess.

"Okay, damn good. Boy, I'm sure you have this attribute. I'm afraid there won't be anyone else in the entire world of cultivators. What a top-notch spiritual root." Seeing Matthew's expression, the monk suddenly spoke loudly. laugh it out.

Matthew licked his dry lips and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Boy, with your attributes, don't even think about cultivating immortals. Just be a mortal for the rest of your life. For the sake of opening my eyes, I'll give you a spiritual stone." Seeing Matthew sitting there in despair. , the monk chuckled, took out a spiritual stone from his arms and threw it to Matthew.

"Thank you so much, Master Immortal, for disturbing me." After Matthew took the spirit stone, he smiled bitterly, stood up and said goodbye to the monk.

When he walked to the door, Matthew could still hear the monk's unbridled laughter.

I entered the Spirit-Searching Pavilion with full expectations, but when I came out, my face was full of frustration.

After standing at the door of Meiling Pavilion for a while, Matthew accepted this reality.

The Spirit Testing Pavilion has been in existence for many years, and there has never been any case of errors in spiritual root testing.

After taking a heavy breath, Matthew left.

Now that things have come to this, what's the use of being depressed anymore? Can being depressed change his spiritual qualifications?

Besides, now is not the time to think about those things.

He must leave Wangxian City as soon as possible. Once the Wangxian Master recovers from his injuries, he will definitely cause trouble for him.

After leaving Seiling Pavilion, Matthew quietly came to the vicinity of Baiyao Hall.

Seeing that shopkeeper Chen was instructing several boys to sort out the medicinal materials in the shop, Matthew really believed what Chen Hu said.
