Yin Qin looked at Yin Gongzi with a look of gain and loss, and asked with a smile: "What kind of spiritual root do you want to open?"

"If only I could be like my father, I could open a three-yang soil. Yin Gongzi looked forward to it with great expectations.

These days, everyone is talking about opening the pulse of the spiritual root, and to Yin Qin's surprise, the origin of the spiritual root is quite consistent with the Five Elements Shengke theory he learned in his previous life. In his previous life, when he was an old man, he specialized in the study of feng shui and mathematics, and he was a master of Chinese culture in the eyes of many people. But for most ordinary mortals in the Savage Wasteland, the spiritual root is still quite complex and esoteric.

In this world of cultivating immortals, opening the pulse means that the spiritual roots in the meridians of the human body begin to sprout, and the role of the spiritual roots is to communicate and nurture the spiritual power of the five elements of yin and yang. When a mortal can absorb spiritual power and communicate the five elements of yin and yang, it means that he has embarked on the road of rebirth and transcendent sainthood.

Once anyone opens the vein, the spiritual roots that sprout are all five, corresponding to the number of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, and the five elements. But each person's five spiritual roots are not necessarily all five elements, for example, some people may open three wood spiritual roots, two golden spiritual roots, and his spiritual roots belong to the five elements missing three.

Although from the perspective of heaven and earth, the five elements are indispensable, and only when the five elements are complete can a balance be achieved, from the perspective of monks' practice, it is the opposite. The purer the five elements of the monk's spiritual root, the better, if the five spiritual roots are all the same attribute, then it is a rare cultivation genius in a hundred years, commonly known as a certain five elements of the heavenly spiritual root.

The reason lies in the fact that the ascension of a monk's realm does not depend on the balance of the five elements, but when the spiritual power of a certain five element attribute in his body reaches a certain strength, he can rely on this power to advance and upgrade. The principle of barrel shortboarding, which is common in the world, does not apply here.

Under this premise, every person who opens the pulse is five spiritual roots, just like five pipes connected to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, a monk with all the five elements, and the only monk of the five elements, is equivalent to five times the difference in the speed of absorbing spiritual energy and increasing spiritual power. The longevity of the human race is limited, and it is almost impossible for a monk with all five elements to break through and advance before the deadline comes.

The waste wood with the five elements of the spiritual root and the only genius of the five elements of the spiritual root are two extreme examples, and the chance of appearing in a monk is very rare.

The vast majority of monks' spiritual roots are between two, three, and four, and this situation is more complicated, and to judge the level of a monk's spiritual root, it is necessary to compare the relationship between the five elements of the spiritual root.

For example, if a monk's spiritual root has four gold and one earth, and the soil can produce gold, then the speed at which this monk cultivates the metallic spiritual exercise is only slightly slower than the metallic heavenly spiritual root. This situation is commonly known as the Earth Spirit Root.

Another example is a monk's spiritual root, three golds and two fires, although they are also relatively simple and high-grade spiritual roots, but the gold is restrained by fire, and the result is that whether it is the cultivation of metallic or fire attribute exercises, the growth rate of cultivation will be affected to a certain extent.

The situation of the other three spiritual roots and the four spiritual roots is even more complicated, and the more types of the five elements, the more complicated the relationship between them.

For example, the monks of the four spiritual roots have two spiritual roots, one wood, one water, and one fire. In this case, although you should still cultivate the metallic exercises, its speed is also faster than the five elements of the Waste Spirit Root. Because the gold wants to go to the wood, consume a part, and the gold has to go to the raw water, and consume a part, and the gold is overcome by the fire, so that the power of the two golden spirit roots is left with more than one. Or the above example, if you replace a fire with a soil, it is much better, because although the gold is lost because of the wood, the raw water is lost, but it is also born by the earth, and the two golden spirit roots are only slightly lost in combination.

The relationship between the five elements is so complex that after opening the pulse, the monk needs to carefully consider the situation of his spiritual root before he can choose the corresponding exercises for the next step of cultivation.

But that's not all, because in addition to the five elements, there is also yin and yang. In other words, each of the five elements has a yin and yang distinction.

For example, the power and form of yang wood are like towering trees, and yin wood is like weak grass. OTHERS, YANG FIRE CAN SCORCH FOR THOUSANDS OF MILES LIKE THE SCORCHING SUN, YIN FIRE IS LIKE A LAMP AND CANDLE CAN ONLY FILL THE ROOM, YANG SOIL IS LIKE THE SOIL OF THE MOUNTAIN CITY WALL, YIN SOIL IS LIKE THE MUD IN THE FIELD, YANG GOLD HAS THE EDGE OF A KNIFE, YIN GOLD IS LIKE A HAIRPIN OF SIDEBURNS, YANG WATER IS LIKE THE SEA RIVERS AND LAKES, YIN WATER IS A GURGLING STREAM.

The Five Elements Spiritual Root is combined with the Yin and Yang attributes of the Spiritual Root, and the monk opens the pulse to distinguish from the spiritual root, which has become a specialized knowledge. To take an extreme example, for example, a monk who is also a wood attribute Heavenly Spirit Root, one person's five spirit roots are all yang wood, and the other is all yin wood. The attack power of the former is naturally much stronger than that of the latter.

Monks fight with people and hunt demon beasts, relying on the Yang Spirit Root to stimulate spiritual power. BUT THE YIN SPIRIT ROOT IS NOT USELESS, FOR EXAMPLE, YIN WOOD IS SUITABLE FOR PLANTING SPIRITUAL GRASS, YIN FIRE IS BEST FOR ALCHEMY, YIN GOLD IS LONGER THAN REFINING TOOLS, YIN WATER DRAWS MORE TALISMANS, YIN SOIL CAN DISTINGUISH THE EARTH QI AND EXPLORE THE SPIRITUAL VEINS AND SO ON. All in all, the Yang Spirit Root is strong and straight and suitable for attacking and fighting, and the Yin Spirit Root is weak and tactful and suitable for careful consideration.

Most of the monks in the wasteland only pay attention to the yang spirit root, and the yin spirit root is like a waste spirit root in the eyes of many monks. In the words of the black fat man Yin Gongzi, ** is to charge into battle, and the root of the pubic is to boil water for cooking.

There are two reasons for this phenomenon, one is that the wasteland environment is compelling, and the fight and killing demon beasts rely on force, which requires the power of Yang Linggen, and the other is that the inheritance of the wasteland Dao method is flawed, and the inheritance of refining weapons, alchemy and even talisman spells is very scarce and unsystematic.

Even if it is a monk with a Heavenly Spirit Root, if the five Spirit Roots are all Yin Spirit Roots, he will face an embarrassing situation, although the speed of spiritual power absorption is super fast, he cannot find a suitable way to use his spiritual power. Of course, if it is really a heavenly spirit root, even if it is a five-yin root, the sect will find a way to help the monk find a suitable cultivation method, but if it is really not possible, he can also smash the sky-high spirit stone and send this monk to Da Zhou through a super-large teleportation array.

The Great Zhou is the birthplace of the Terran monks. To the east of the Savage Continent, across the sea of stars thousands of miles wide, there is a world with an area wider than the wasteland, called the Eastern Zhou Continent. It is the sacred place of cultivation in the hearts of all the monks of the wasteland.

After the combination of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water on yin and yang, a wonderful phenomenon is produced, called the integration of the five elements. For example, according to common sense, gold is a gram of wood, but when Yang Jin meets Yin Wood, the spiritual root has a certain chance of synthesis, thus mutating another kind of spiritual root, the metallic thunder spirit root, and the monks of the thunder spirit root can use the power of thunder.

The reason for such changes lies in the interaction between heaven and earth, yin and yang, and the harmony of husband and wife can give birth to new life.

In the same way, when Yang Mu encounters Yin Earth, it is possible to merge the dark spirit root of the unearthed attribute, so that the monk can hide his body, Yang Fire meets Yin Gold and synthesizes into the ice spirit root of the water attribute, Yang Earth meets **** and synthesizes into the wind spirit root of the fire attribute, Yang Water meets Yin Fire and can merge and mutate into the immortal spirit root of the wood attribute, and the monk has a super self-healing ability.

The chance of a monk who can merge into a mutated spiritual root is even less than that of a heavenly spiritual root, because this is equivalent to adding another spiritual root in addition to the five spiritual roots, which is very against the sky.

BACK TO THE ACTUAL SITUATION, YIN TIESHAN'S SPIRITUAL ROOT IS THE BEST AMONG HIS PEERS, AND WHEN HE OPENED THE PULSE, HE OPENED THE SPIRITUAL ROOT OF THREE YANG SOIL, ONE YANG GOLD, AND ONE YIN WATER. His cultivation is mainly based on earth-based exercises, supplemented by gold-based exercises, and it is a pity that his Yang Earth Spiritual Root and YIN Water Spiritual Root have not been able to merge into a fire-based Wind Spiritual Root. And part of the power of Sanyang soil was drained because of the raw gold and water, but this was enough for him to step into the foundation building before the age of fifty, creating a record for the Yin family's earliest foundation building. If he is lucky, relying on the spiritual root of the Sanyang soil, there is even a possibility of forming a golden pill. But if he wanted to take a step closer and reach the Yuanying realm, it would not be something that Sanyang Tulinggen should think about.

The monks of the Yuan Infant Realm, the Heavenly Spirit Root or the Earth Spirit Root, can also yearn for it. For cultivators with three roots of the same attributes, unless it is a burst of luck, such as three earths, with two fires, or three yang gold, combined with two yin woods, and combined into a metallic thunder spirit root.

If it is said that the barbarian is the bloodline that determines the strength, then for the monk, the state of his cultivation also depends to a large extent on the spiritual root.
