Chapter 2 Zhao Di
More than ten years later.
In a large canyon covered with thick clouds all year round in Nanhua Mountain, a gust of wind whistled from nowhere, and actually blew away the dense clouds and mist in some places, forming a path that was a little wide and leading from the depths of the canyon covered by dense fog to the exit outside the valley. If you stand here and look at the valley, you can see two figures walking out of it one after the other.
"Isn't it just a sesame-sized broken cultivation immortal family, isn't it just that there is one grain of qi dispersed every month, what's so rare!
Walking in front was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, slender and slightly thin, barely handsome, wearing a wrinkled and slightly yellowed white shirt, and a small leather bag pinned to his waist that seemed to be made of some kind of rare animal skin. As he walked, the boy whispered curses the gang who had driven him out of the canyon. Probably because he was afraid of being heard, the content of the curse was probably only heard by himself.
Behind him was a little girl with a round face, a sweet appearance, and a snow-white complexion, whether it was the two pigtails with various flowers at the back of her head or the childishness between her eyebrows, her approximate age was undoubted. At this time, she was pouting, and her two big black and bright eyes became a little red, and there were watery tears in them, and tears could slip down her eyes at any time.
"Brother Wugen, do you really want to leave, or I will go and intercede with the Great Elder and allow you to stay, you are so talented in talisman making, the family will definitely need you." The little girl slowly followed the boy, and finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"No need, Xin'er. If I stay in the Jane family, I won't make any progress in cultivating. It's better to go out and break through, maybe let me find some peerless elixir to make great progress. I'll definitely come back when I become a great cultivator, don't be lazy, don't lose to me when the time comes. The boy pursed his lips and made a mocking expression at the girl.
"Who's going to lose to you, hate!" the girl's little mouth pouted higher.
"Go back, you're about to get to the exit, I'm leaving!" the boy suddenly ran a few steps and rushed out of the valley, leaving only the girl standing in a daze.
The girl looked at the young man's distant back for a long time, then lowered her head and sighed, turned around and walked into the depths of the fog.
"Brother Wugen, you must come back early. ”
......
This young man is none other than Zhao Di, or Wugen.
Zhao Di is his previous name, he was originally a scholar in his early twenties in the Tang Kingdom, and he finally said that he studied hard in the small building in the mountains, and one day because he felt that the night was particularly gorgeous, so he walked out of the book house to admire, and was inexplicably hit by a meteor-like light cluster.
That was his last memory, all he remembered was that his eyes suddenly lit up and he lost consciousness.
I don't know how long it was, maybe it was decades, maybe it was just a dream during an afternoon nap, maybe it was a few lifetimes of reincarnation, his consciousness finally woke up again, but he found that he had become a newborn baby, and even more so, he no longer knew where he was, and there was no one around.
And when Zhao Di didn't even know who his "biological parents" were, he was carried into the Grand Canyon of Nanhua Mountain by Jian Han, a low-level immortal cultivator of the Jian family, and was raised by an immortal cultivator family called the "Nanhua Jian Family". In the process, Zhao Di finally learned the local language, and after continuous inquiry, he had some understanding of the situation in this new world.
This is a place called Tianyuan Continent, this place is not at all on the land where he lived before, he only knows that this Tianyuan Continent is a very vast existence, how big it is, the people of the Jian family do not know, and no one can even describe it clearly. To describe this continent in one sentence, that is, the land is vast and sparsely populated, of course, this sparse population is relative, because the Tian Yuan Continent is too big, even if the population density is not high, its population is very huge.
On this continent, human beings can be divided into two kinds, one is ordinary mortals, and the other is immortal cultivators who have spiritual roots and can practice, also known as monks. The proportion of the latter is extremely low, less than one in a thousand, and most of them usually live in seclusion in the holy land of cultivation, and generally do not enter the mortal world, let alone participate in the wars and power changes in the mortal world, etc. Therefore, the vast majority of mortals did not know about the existence of immortal cultivators at all.
What is the difference between the spiritual root of mortals and immortal cultivators, no one in the Jian family can give a clear statement, but only that the spiritual root is innate, and only those who have the spiritual root can sense the aura that exists in heaven and earth, and introduce it into the body for cultivation. It is rumored that the highest level of cultivation can lead to immortality, with boundless mana and immortality.
It is impossible for mortals without spiritual roots to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, let alone cultivating immortals, and the probability of mortal descendants having spiritual roots is even less than 1 in 10,000. If one of the parents is a monk, the chance of the offspring having a spiritual root is greatly increased, and if both parents are monks, the chance of the offspring having a spiritual root can even reach 1 in 4 to 1 in 2. As a result, the monks married each other, forming large and small immortal cultivation families and immortal cultivation sects.
The Nanhua Jian family is a small immortal cultivation family in the Golden Flame Kingdom located in the southeast of the Tianyuan Continent, with the Nanhua Mountains within a radius of more than 3,000 miles as the main sphere of influence, and is one of the immortal cultivation forces in the thirteen states and counties of the Golden Flame Kingdom.
According to Jian Han, on a trip back to Nanhua Mountain after a family mission, when he passed through an inaccessible wilderness, he found a sleeping baby with roots. Curious, he searched around for a long time, but did not find any other figures within a radius of more than ten miles, so he had to take the baby back to Jane's house.
This baby is Zhao Di. When he was carried into Jane's house, it happened that Jane's family was looking for children with spiritual roots everywhere to expand their fresh blood. In this way, he was raised by the Jian family and became a member of the Jian family, and no one gave him an official name, only a nickname called "Wugen".
This is because Zhao Di's spiritual root surname is a hybrid five spiritual root with all five castes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and it is the one with the worst qualification among all the spiritual root types.
Spiritual roots can usually be divided into five castes: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which are called the five elements. The spiritual roots of most immortal cultivators are made up of one or more mixtures of these five castes. Generally speaking, the fewer caste species the spiritual root contains, the purer the spiritual root, the easier it is to sense the corresponding heaven and earth spiritual energy, and the faster it is to absorb and cultivate. The mixed spiritual roots of the four or five castes are particularly difficult to cultivate, and they are also known as miscellaneous spiritual roots or pseudo-spiritual roots, which belong to the category of very poor qualifications.
The spiritual root with a single surname is extremely talented in cultivation, and the cultivation speed is extremely fast, and it can often be cultivated to a very high realm, which is called the heavenly spiritual root, which means the pride of the sky. However, the appearance of this kind of Heavenly Spirit Root is also extremely rare, not to mention such a small immortal cultivation family as the Jian family, even the Golden Flame Country, where the Jian family is located, has more than a thousand immortal cultivation families and sects, large and small, and the appearance of the Heavenly Spirit Root is only a matter once every few hundred years. And once the Heavenly Spirit Root appears, it will immediately become the object of competition for the immortal cultivation forces, and if there is a Heavenly Spirit Root Monk, it is equivalent to booking a promising master for his sect, and the strength of the sect will be extremely stable for a long time. It is rumored that for thousands of years, the Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivators of the Golden Flame Country, except for those who were assassinated by the enemy and died, have all cultivated to a realm unimaginable to ordinary monks.
In addition to these five element surname spiritual roots, there are also some mutated spiritual roots, such as the thunder spirit root produced by the mutation and sublimation of the two surname spiritual roots of gold and water, the wind spirit root generated by the mutation of the two surname spiritual roots of earth and fire, as well as the ice spirit root, phantom spirit root, etc., all of which are called alien spirit roots. The chance of these spirit roots appearing is slightly higher than that of the Heavenly Spirit Roots. Although the cultivators with the Alien Spirit Root are still a little inferior to the Heavenly Spirit Root in cultivation, they are much ahead of other monks, especially when they cooperate with the cultivation of the corresponding special exercises, their strength is often much higher than that of other monks of the same level.
Although Zhao Di also has a spiritual root, he is the worst kind, and the people of the Jian family naturally don't look down on him since he was a child, and they don't even bother to choose a name, so they usually call him "five roots". Among the same batch of children, there is also a Linggen surname who is also very poor Wulinggen, who is less than a month younger than Zhao Di, and his nickname is the more ugly "Little Wugen".
After Zhao Di learned that his spiritual root belonged to his surname, he was depressed for a long time, and then he embarked on the path of cultivation even more firmly. He believes that diligence can make up for his clumsiness, but he doesn't believe that he has a brain in his twenties, and his achievements are not as good as those dolls around him who are only a few years old. There is another factor, he always thinks that his rebirth into a baby is related to the meteor-like ball of light, whether it is an accidental phenomenon or not, he wants to figure out what is going on, and find a way to return to the Tang Kingdom. If one day he can become a legendary immortal cultivator, with the great supernatural power that changes the heavens and the earth and crosses the spatial interface, he may be able to find the answer.
