Chapter 41: The Spiritual Root

Qing Yu happened to see the description of the Xiuxian family again.

If the Immortal Cultivation Sect is a towering tree that supports the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm, then the Immortal Cultivation Family is more or less a variety of branches and vines entangled in their bodies, and they need to use these sects to survive in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

As long as the Xiuxian family is a little older, its ancestors are all disciples of these sects, and it is the continuation of the bloodline of these disciples. The reason why this is the case is that it is necessary to talk about the "spiritual root" that all immortal cultivators have in common.

What the "spiritual root" is, most immortal cultivators can't figure it out. But they all know that if a person doesn't have a "spiritual root", then don't even think about cultivating immortals, because you can't sense the aura at all, let alone cultivate mana!

But people who are born with "spiritual roots" are too few among ordinary people, and they can even be said to be one in ten thousand, one in tens of thousands. But that's it, the people who have the spiritual root and can embark on the path of cultivating immortals still only account for a little bit of it, and the vast majority of people still live a mediocre life. Because it is really difficult to select people with spiritual roots, they are too loosely distributed, which makes those immortal cultivation sects that want to recruit disciples feel a big headache.

And it is not that as long as there is a "spiritual root", it must meet the requirements of the Immortal Cultivation Sect. Because the "spiritual root" and the "spiritual root" are still very different, and there are good and bad.

Generally speaking, the "spiritual root" is divided into five elements such as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and the spiritual root of most people is a mixture of these five or four multiple genera of 'nature', although these people can also sense the aura of heaven and earth, but the effect of cultivation can be said to be miserable, basically can only practice the basic exercises of the five elements in the stage of refining qi to the third or fourth layer, and they will not move forward an inch, and they will generally have no hope of crossing the foundation building period in their lives.

Therefore, spiritual roots with five or even four genera of 'nature' are also called "pseudo-spiritual roots" in the world of cultivating immortals, to show that they are different from "true spiritual roots" that only have two or three kinds of 'natures' and can be cultivated relatively quickly.

As for the single spiritual root that has only one kind of 'sex', it is called "Heavenly Root" by the immortal cultivation world, which means the darling of the heavens. Because a person who possesses this kind of spiritual root, no matter what kind of 'sex' it is, his cultivation speed is two to three times faster than that of an ordinary spiritual root person. Moreover, when you cultivate to the peak of the foundation building period, you don't need to face the bottlenecks that you should face when you enter the foundation stage, and you can easily start to form a pill.

If it is said that the cultivation speed is incredibly fast, which makes other immortal cultivators envious, then the "Heavenly Root" person's unbottlenecked ability to form a pill makes other immortal cultivators so jealous that they are about to vomit blood.

You must know that if it is said that among the ten Qi Refining Stage Immortal cultivators, only one can enter the Foundation Building Stage with the help of the Foundation Building Dan. Then one of the hundred people in the foundation building period may not be able to succeed in the foundation building period and enter the foundation stage. With such a disparity in the proportion of knots, how could it not make other immortal cultivators very jealous, and the "Heavenly Root" people were blessed.

Therefore, whenever a Tiangen person appears, he is often frantically scrambling for various immortal cultivation sects, after all, this is equivalent to a great master who has booked a Dan period for this sect, which can greatly increase the strength of this sect.

However, the probability of the appearance of an anti-heaven spiritual root like the "Heavenly Root" is almost negligible, and it is basically discovered by the Immortal Cultivation Sect every hundreds of years. On the other hand, although it is not a "Heavenly Root", it is not a "Mutant Spiritual Root" that does not belong to the Five Elements Spiritual Root, and the probability of its appearance is relatively large, and one can appear every twenty or thirty years.

The so-called "mutated spiritual root" refers to the spiritual root that is mixed together with two or three kinds of five elements 'nature' and is mutated and sublimated.

Like the "Thunder Spirit Root" produced by the mutation of "Earth Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root"; The "Ice Spirit Root" produced after the mutation of "Golden Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root", and of course, other mutated spirit roots such as "Dark Spirit Root" and "Wind Spirit Root".

Although the immortal cultivator of the mutated spiritual root does not have the talent to be exempted from the bottleneck of the knot, the speed of his cultivation is not inferior to that of the "Heavenly Root" person, and if he can find an exercise that matches his 'nature', most of these people will be great masters, and they can generally top three or four ordinary immortal cultivators of the same strength. Therefore, people with mutated spiritual roots are also people who are extremely popular among the major immortal cultivation sects.

But in the past, not to mention such geniuses as "Heavenly Root" and "Mutant Spiritual Root", the Immortal Cultivation Sect could not easily find them, even ordinary "True Spiritual Root" people, and it was very difficult for the various sects to find them. You must know that only one out of 10,000 people can have a spiritual root, and only one of the five or six people with a spiritual root can find out who is a true spiritual root. As a result, under such harsh search conditions, there have even been times in the history of the immortal cultivation world, where there are only a few cats and dogs left in some small sects, which almost made the entire sect break the strange news of inheritance. Faced with this embarrassing situation, some people with a heart finally found out after painstaking research that this "spiritual root" is very easy to appear in people who inherit the same bloodline.

For example, if one of the male and female duo has a spiritual root, then the child they give birth to will have a one-in-four chance that they will also have a spiritual root. Of course, if both parents are the owners of spiritual roots, then the chances of their offspring appearing spiritual roots are even greater, and it is not uncommon for all children born to be spiritual root owners.

The discovery of this matter made those who were interested in it very excited. Under their encouragement, many young disciples of the sect at that time were sent out by their elders to start a family in the secular world, and when they had children, they returned to the sect to continue their cultivation.

In this way, when these immortal cultivation sects lacked disciples anymore, they directly selected children with spiritual roots from the families of their portal disciples, and the proportion of their true spiritual roots also greatly increased.

In this way, the big problem of the lack of disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect has finally been alleviated.

Although the probability of giving birth to a spiritual root among ordinary people is still so low, in general, there are more and more people who have spiritual roots, and those who inherit the spiritual root bloodline, there are endless spiritual root disciples. After a long time, after slowly branching out, the current Xiuzhen family was formed.

These high-level exercises of the Xiuzhen family may not be available, but there is no shortage of slightly shallow immortal cultivation methods, and they have gradually become the peripheral gateways of various immortal cultivation sects, and they also have a certain degree of independence.

Therefore, behind each Xiuzhen family, there is generally a sect of cultivating immortals supporting it, which should not be underestimated.

As for the Ye family, there is also a description above, after all, it is also one of the best families, it is a subsidiary of the Demon Cloud Sect, which also explains why this Ye Immortal Master will have a release device of "Evil Cloud Demon Mist" only during the Qi cultivation period.

Qing Yu confidently closed the book, he felt that his cultivation speed was definitely not inferior to those Heavenly Spirit Roots and Mutant Spirit Roots.

He looked at Jinghu Mountain, it's been a day, it's time to take a look!
