Chapter Forty-Eight: Testing the Spiritual Root
The so-called loose cultivation refers to the immortal cultivators who do not participate in any sect and only rely on their own strength, of course, the general immortal cultivators want to participate in the sect, and they can better obtain the resources of cultivating immortals, but after all, not everyone can enter the sect, at least those who are above the four spiritual roots, in addition to some network needs, in short, there are many people who want to join the sect in the immortal cultivators, but there is no way, such people are collectively referred to as loose cultivation.
Although the number of scattered cultivation is huge, the resources of cultivating immortals in their possession are only one-tenth, because they are always not as fast as the joint efforts of the sect alone, so the strength is far inferior to the power of the sect, so it can only account for ninety percent of the sect, and the total number of scattered cultivation is one percent, which depends on the face of the sect, because the people of the general sect look down on the scattered cultivators, and even the robbery of the scattered cultivators often occurs, and the robbed scattered cultivators can only swallow this breath.
Therefore, in general, where scattered cultivation and sects appear together, all casual cultivators will unconsciously form a small collective, so as not to be bullied and unable to fight back, after all, there is a lot of power in numbers, although it is not necessary that others will help you at that time, but it is always a deterrent.
After Wang Liang heard the man in front of him say that he was a casual cultivator, all the knowledge about casual cultivation that he had read in the book last night instantly popped up in his head, and he instantly understood that this person was very likely to gang up with himself, and ordinary casual cultivators need to make a few more friends outside, and no one knows when he will need the help of the friends he once met, and it is always good to make a few more friends when he walks outside.
All kinds of thoughts kept appearing in Wang Liang's heart, and then he replied: "Fellow Daoists, it's just a casual cultivation in the next place, and I came here today just to increase my knowledge." ”
The man saw that Wang Liang also had the intention of making friends, and then laughed and said: "He'an below, in fact, I have noticed Brother Wang a long time ago, it seems that Brother Wang is very interested in these spiritual weapons, could it be that Brother Wang has just entered the immortal cultivation realm?" ”
Wang Liang secretly said in his heart that he was still too excited, so that he was seen at a glance, but his first entry into the immortal cultivation world is not something that needs to be hidden, if you want to better understand the immortal cultivation world, instead of peeping at the leopard, it is still necessary to find an old man who is familiar with the immortal cultivation world, but you need to worry about the intentions of the person in front of you.
Although it is not allowed to fight in this Fang City, once it is discovered, the cultivation will be abolished, and the heavy will be executed on the spot, but Rao is so can not avoid all kinds of open and secret battles in the Fang City, Wang Liang himself has seen the man in black riding a giant eagle, just because he bought a medicinal herb in this Fang City, he was targeted and chased for dozens of days, but he really has nothing to plot on his body, so he is not afraid of killing for money.
Wang Liang hesitated a little and said: "Let Brother Fang smile, I have indeed just come into contact with the Immortal Cultivation Realm, although I am very interested in these spiritual weapons, I am just shy, so I have to wander around in order to increase some knowledge." ”
Fang He'an smiled slightly: "I understand, these casual cultivators like us have come here like this. As he spoke, he led Wang Liang to the outside of the store, and then said: "Since Brother Wang is also a casual cultivator who has just entered the immortal cultivation realm, I won't hide anything, I am actually a member of a small casual cultivation alliance, and I saw that Brother Wang also looks like a newcomer just now, so I came up with the idea of inviting Brother Wang to join us, which can not only strengthen our power, but also help Brother Wang avoid some detours. ”
Wang Liang secretly said in his heart, showing a tangled look on the surface, and after thinking about it, he said: "It's really not that I don't want to join the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, but I really don't know much about the Immortal Cultivation Realm, so I don't dare to join rashly." ”
Fang He'an didn't show any unpleasant looks, but praised him: "Brother Wang is cautious, of course there is no problem, so let's take Brother Wang around this city today and introduce it to you, and it will not be in vain for us to get acquainted." ”
Wang Liang happily agreed, and the two of them walked together in the market and introduced it, and the first stop turned out to be the Treasure Pavilion.
Fang He'an introduced: "This is one of the best shops in this market, whether it is weapons, exercises, or pills, it can be said that all the goods are readily available, and sometimes there are even some more precious things for sale, most monks will come here to buy." As he spoke, Fang He'an suddenly noticed Dao Wang Liang's strange look.
"Actually, I just came here a few days ago and exchanged it for some spirit stones." After hearing this, Fang He'an suddenly realized: "I see, speaking of this treasure pavilion, exchanging silver for spirit stones is also a major feature here, but not everything can be exchanged, only some vintage herbs or some mortal precious things, and a person can only exchange for ten spirit stones in his life, after the exchange, this treasure pavilion will remember your breath, and if you want to exchange it by deception, it is very likely that someone will be beaten out of the door." ”
Wang Liang didn't expect that this Treasure Pavilion would have such strange regulations, although he thought about returning to Yan Kingdom to ask the third prince for more silver to exchange for more spirit stones here, and then he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to enter after he went out, so he gave up this idea and planned to implement it in the future, but he didn't expect this plan to be stillborn before he could act.
"Why does this Treasure Pavilion have such a rule?" Wang Hao asked casually in surprise.
Fang He'an replied: "This is thanks to the founder of the Treasure Pavilion, the specific name is not verifiable, I think the owner of this Treasure Pavilion was also a loose cultivator in this Beishanfang City, and then the poor and poor successfully entered the sect with their own efforts to practice, and later returned here to found the Treasure Pavilion after the achievement of Jindan, and established that no one can exchange gold and silver treasures and other worldly things for up to ten spirit stones, it is said that he sold his favorite pet because of ten spirit stones, and later set up this rule in order to eliminate the knot, It continues to the present. ”
After hearing this, Wang Liang sighed slightly: "This Lord of the Treasure Pavilion is also a strange person. ”
Suddenly, Fang He'an said, "Brother Wang, has you ever tested your spiritual root?" Wang Liang didn't know why Fang He'an suddenly mentioned this matter, but he replied truthfully.
"Then Brother Wang, did you see a place to test the spiritual root in this treasure pavilion yesterday?"
After Fang He's reminder, Wang Liang immediately remembered the test spirit root he saw yesterday, and then nodded.
"Brother Wang really doesn't know about this, then the test of the spiritual root is free, if Brother Wang wants to test the spiritual root, you might as well go in and try it now."
Wang Liang didn't expect that this test of the spiritual root was also free, and the main reason for not testing the spiritual root yesterday was because he didn't know what the spiritual root was at that time, even after learning about the spiritual root today, he didn't rush to measure it here, mainly because he was afraid that his spiritual stone was not enough, but he didn't expect it to be free.
"Oh? This Treasure Pavilion test spirit root is actually free, this is also the rule set by the Lord of the Treasure Pavilion in the beginning? ”
Fang He'an said with a smile: "This is not a rule set by the master of the Treasure Pavilion, but by the sect behind the Treasure Pavilion. ”
"Zongmen?" Wang Liang was slightly stunned.
"Of course, this treasure pavilion is not something that can be founded by one person alone, not to mention the huge spirit stones involved, even the Jindan monks can't easily take it out, let's just say that the interests involved in this fang market are not something that can be settled by one person, there is a sect behind every big shop as a backer, and this free spirit root test is naturally the rule under them."
Seeing that Wang Liang was still a little puzzled, Fang He'an added: "The main thing is to keep people with rare spirit roots, once someone tests the double spirit root or the alien spirit root and the single spirit root under the shop they have opened, the person in charge of the test will immediately stabilize the person with good qualifications, and then notify the people of the sect to come here to bring the talented people into the sect, although there are not many geniuses found in this way, but it is also a considerable number in the long run, and the test spirit root will not turn into many spirit stones, For the sect, it is not felt that everyone in Beishanfang City will be given ten spirit stones, and the spirit stones consumed to test the spirit root will be even more useless. ”
Saying that, the two of them had already walked outside the room where the spirit root was tested, Wang Liang suddenly felt a little nervous, and Fang He'an also clearly saw it, and comforted: "Maybe Brother Wang is a rare double spirit root or a strange spirit root, and then it will soar to the sky, and if you are a sect, you don't need to join my scattered cultivation alliance." ”
Wang Liang also knew that Fang He'an was making fun of himself, so he smiled bitterly twice and pushed open the door and entered it, only to see that the layout of the room was the same as the place where the spirit stone was exchanged, the only difference was that there was a transparent glass ball on the table, but if you looked closely, you could also see the faint colored patterns in it.
This time sitting behind the table was a lazy-looking young man, who was asleep on the table with his head buried in his arms. Wang Liang secretly slandered: "The people in this treasure pavilion are so lazy, they were a drunkard last time, and they really slept this time." ”
The man who was sleeping on the table seemed to have heard the sound of Wang Liang and the others coming in, and sat up suddenly, and then quickly stood up when he saw the person, and asked, "Which one is going to test the spiritual root?" ”
Wang Liang stepped forward and said, "It's to test the spiritual root." ”
The man looked at Wang Liang, frowned, and then pointed to the ball on the table and said, "Put your hands on it, and then slowly enter the spirit weapon." ”
Wang Liang didn't expect to do what he said, and began to slowly inject aura, and after about a stick of incense, the young man's eyes darkened, and he said coldly: "Okay, stop." ”
Wang Liang decisively stopped inputting spiritual energy, and then waited for the young man to announce his spiritual root.
"Pseudo-spiritual roots, fire, earth, grass, metal, water." The young man said Wang Liang's spiritual root lightly, and then sat back on the chair, completely losing his attitude just now, looking at Wang Liang in front of him, he was a little bored, and added: "The test fee is a spirit stone, go out after paying it quickly, don't disturb my sleep." ”
Seeing this, Fang He'an hurriedly said, "You have always been free to test the spirit root here, where is the cost of a spirit stone." ”
Who knew that the young man did not relent, and said, "Shouldn't it be as compensation for you disturbing my sleep?" It's just a waste that can't break through the fifth layer of Qi cultivation in his life, what. Is it because you don't want to pay it? ”
Fang He'an just wanted to be stopped by Wang Liang, and then silently took out a spirit stone from his pocket and put it on the table, he knew that this young man just wanted to insult himself, to this point, he couldn't miss this spirit stone, although he had long known that the people of the sect had never regarded loose cultivation as a thing, but today's personal experience made Wang Liang realize that he couldn't rely on himself, whether he agreed to join the loose cultivation alliance or worked hard to join the sect, he couldn't do it alone.
