Chapter 2 Moving Forward in Despair
This coma was nearly a month, and Qin Deng just woke up and learned the news of a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
I remember that at that time, Elder Song, the deacon who was responsible for treating the injuries and administering medicine to the disciples below the foundation building period of the sect, came to Qin Deng's residence and said with a sympathetic and regretful face:
"Qin Deng, from your coma to now, your essence and blood have been gradually draining, your body is gradually weakening, and your spiritual root is gradually withering and dying.
The head of the sect has also come to see you, and in order to save you, I asked me to give you a pill of the Great Yang Pill, which is extremely precious and extremely difficult to refine, but like a mud cow entering the sea, it still can't stop the withering of your spiritual root.
At this rate, you will live to be sixteen years old at most. This kind of spiritual root withering has not been common since ancient times, but it is not uncommon.
However, in the existing examples of spiritual roots withering, although their spiritual roots withered, their bodies will not be weak, and their essence and blood will not be lost, but they will only lose their cultivation qualifications in the end, and they can still be ordinary mortals, or even martial arts masters among mortals.
It's rare to see a condition like your body......"
Qin Deng was like being poured a bucket of cold water in the cold winter wax moon, and he was cold and stunned.
"Hey...... It's a pity that your seven-grade spiritual root is the best qualification. But don't be discouraged, keep working hard to cultivate, maybe there will be a turnaround. The sect master said that you will be allowed to continue cultivating on the mountain, but it is just ...... Whether or not you can still enjoy the treatment of an elite disciple depends on your hard work......" After saying this, Elder Song sighed and turned to leave.
The next day, before Qin Deng recovered from the bad news, Liu Mingyu's grandfather Liu Hong came over again.
said a lot of words, and secretly threatened Qin Deng's parents in the world with the safety of Qin Deng, asking Qin Deng to admit that he was at fault in the first place.
He also said that even if Qin Deng didn't admit it, Liu Mingyu would only be punished a little heavily, and the sect would not severely punish another elite disciple for the sake of a abolished genius.
Qin Deng gritted his teeth, for the safety of his parents, Qin Deng silently endured this humiliation alone. At this time, Qin Deng truly realized the cruelty of this world and truly understood the importance of strength.
Also, although Qin Deng was extremely talented and was the object of the sect's key cultivation before, but now after all, he has become a waste person, and the deacon elder in charge of the precepts can't make a mistake against Elder Liu for the sake of a waste person.
As for the matter of reaching the age of twelve to be accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Taishang, no one mentioned it again.
After Elder Liu left, Qin Deng checked his body and looked inwardly at the dantian, and now the spiritual root was indeed gradually withering, and the vitality was gradually passing away.
Thinking that he would eventually lose his qualification to cultivate the truth, thinking about the humiliation he had endured, and thinking about the safety of his parents, Qin Deng almost wanted to go crazy.
Qin Deng did not give up, and practiced desperately every day.
After a period of time, no matter how hard you try to absorb the spiritual energy and send it to the spiritual root, it will eventually disappear completely, and you can't stop the spiritual root from gradually withering and losing essence and blood.
But during this period, Qin Deng appeared a strange phenomenon - the spiritual energy sent into the spiritual root did not disappear, but after being transformed into spiritual power by the spiritual root, it flowed towards a place, as if something was actively sucking and devouring somewhere.
It is not only the spiritual power that is devoured, but also the vitality essence of the spiritual root itself, and the essence and blood of the body.
Qin Deng once again calmly and carefully examined, not letting go of any subtleties in the dantian.
Half a day later, a faint thing appeared next to the spiritual root that stunned him: a green gourd about the size of a little finger. The gourd's stomach fell together, like breathing, extracting and devouring the spiritual power transformed from the spiritual root, and when there was no spiritual power, it extracted the spiritual root vitality essence and the essence and blood of the whole body.
"It turned out to be this shameless thief gourd!" Qin Deng was so angry that one Buddha was born and the second Buddha ascended to heaven.
This gourd is exactly the same as the aqua-green jade gourd that Qin Lantern wore around his neck before.
The jade gourd was obtained by Qin Deng's father who once went out to buy medicinal materials, and it was hung on people's bodies to be warm in winter and cool in summer, so that mosquitoes did not invade and all kinds of diseases did not occur.
When Qin Deng was born, Qin Deng's father hung it around Qin Deng's neck. In the past ten years, it has never been won.
When Qin Deng woke up in a coma, the gourd was gone, only the rope was left, thinking that it was broken during the fight with Liu Mingyu. Only now did this gourd run to his dantian.
Now that he had the goal, Qin Deng tried his best to get this gourd out, but there was no way. Finally, he went to Elder Song, and after repeated examinations, Elder Song said exactly that there was no foreign body in Qin Deng's body. also asked Qin Deng not to give up on himself, thinking nonsense, saying that God will always leave a glimmer of life for people, so that he should not give up.
Qin Deng understood that only he could see this gourd.
After learning about this qiē, Qin Deng's ruthlessness came up again, he was already a person with an extremely resolute personality and never gave up easily. And the sentence that I vaguely heard before I fell into a coma, "Work hard to cultivate, don't die, wait for me to wake up." "The ten ** was passed to him before the thief gourd fell asleep.
In this case, there is still great hope for this body to recover.
Since then, Qin Deng has been cultivating all day long, except for eating, and even when he sleeps, he has been used to meditate and absorb aura.
However, no matter how hard Qin Deng tried, the spiritual power he cultivated would be devoured by the gourd, leaving nothing behind. Not to mention using spiritual power to nourish spiritual roots.
Qin Deng's body is getting worse and worse, and the spiritual power transformed by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has been devoured by the gourd, and his cultivation has not made any progress, not to mention, he is still regressing. In the previous year's qualification challenge, he lost to an inner disciple and lost his qualification as an elite disciple.
If this world wants to obtain the qualification of cultivation, one qiē is based on whether there is a spiritual root in the body.
Without a spiritual root, that is, the innate immortal path is cut off, and it is destined to become a mortal.
There are very few people who have spiritual roots, and at most one person out of 100,000 people can have spiritual roots.
The spiritual root is divided into one to nine grades, nine levels.
The level of the spiritual root is determined by the number of spiritual whiskers born on the spiritual root. The spiritual root with only one spiritual whisker is one product, and correspondingly, the person who has nine spiritual whiskers on the spiritual root is the nine-grade spiritual root.
The more spiritual beards, the higher the level of spiritual roots, the higher the corresponding cultivation qualifications, the faster the degree of cultivation, and the easier it is to succeed in building a foundation.
Therefore, the general cultivation sect treats disciples below the foundation building period into several levels according to the level of the spiritual root.
Disciples with first-grade and second-grade spiritual roots are outer disciples, disciples with third- and fourth-grade spiritual roots are inner disciples, and disciples with fifth, sixth, and seventh-grade spiritual roots are elite disciples.
As for the disciples of the eighth-grade and nine-rank such top-grade spiritual roots, they will be competed for by the elders, the masters, and even the Supreme Elders, and they will be directly accepted as true disciples.
Xiuzhen can gain great strength, a long lifespan, and even become an immortal, immortal. This is originally a thing that goes against the sky, and in general, the higher the qualification, the farther you will definitely go and achieve greater achievements.
A disciple with outstanding qualifications is comparable to hundreds or thousands of ordinary disciples, and can even determine the success or failure of a sect in the future.
Under normal circumstances, in addition to the true disciples who have successfully built the foundation, about sixty percent of the disciples in the sect are outer disciples, thirty percent are inner disciples, and the number of elite disciples accounts for one percent at most.
Elite disciples have the best cultivation resources, followed by inner disciples, and outer disciples are the lowest.
Qin Deng was defeated by an inner disciple in the previous year's challenge and fell from an elite disciple to an inner disciple.
"Hey, it's a challenge again in three months, am I really going to become an outer disciple and be insulted?"
"In order to exchange for the elixir for me, the family's property has been almost sold, and the last time I saw my parents, my parents, who were previously well-maintained, were gray, as if they had aged dozens of years in a few years. ”
Qin Deng muttered to himself, coming back to his senses from his memories.
"Tuk, tuk......"
There was a knock at the door.
Qin Deng got up and opened the door, only to see a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl in a light green dress, standing at the door.
A long and supple hair, tied by a pink ribbon, shows a beautiful face.
The girl's chest rose and fell slightly, perhaps running too fast, shaking the show next to her ears, and the show scattered down to cover half of her delicate ears.
"It's all this damn thief gourd, sucking my sperm and blood, so that I don't grow any longer. Looking at the girl in front of him, who was already nearly a head taller than himself, Qin Deng couldn't help cursing the gourd in the dantian again.
"Xiaoxiao, you're here again, be careful that your master punishes you. Qin Deng looked at the girl with a rare smile and said with concern.
The girl's name is 6 Xiaoxiao, and she started at the same time as Qin Deng, and became an elite disciple together, with excellent qualifications, and she is a six-grade spiritual root.
She has a well-behaved personality, a soft temperament, she cultivates very hard, and her cultivation degree is extremely fast, and she is currently in the Great Perfection of the Spirit Root Stage, which is very liked by Elder Su. Although the foundation has not yet been built, it has been accepted as a true disciple by Elder Su.
Among the current major sects of cultivation, the true disciples who have truly built a successful foundation are the foundation and backbone of a sect's exhibition.
There is one of the most important steps in building a foundation - planting spirits.
There is one very important thing that needs to be used in the spirit seed. The spirit seed is the essence of the cherished species that grow in the spirit seed garden.
After the spirit seed and the spirit root are combined, a wisp of innate origin will be emitted at the moment when the human body grows in the dantian, and this wisp of innate origin is like a key, which can open the door for the human body to cultivate into immortals.
The success of cultivating the foundation of the spirit can be regarded as officially stepping into the path of cultivating immortals, and a person only has one chance in his life, and at least eighty percent of the introductory disciples have stopped outside this gate.
"Senior Brother Qin, my master went to the Songyue Hall to discuss matters with the sect master and the other three vein masters, and I took you ten Ascending Spirit Pills. After speaking, he took out a small milky white jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Qin Deng.
"Xiaoxiao, even if you become a true disciple, you will only have ten Ascending Spirit Pills a month. Ever since you became a true disciple and saved five pills every month to give to me, I have felt so guilty that I don't know how to reciprocate. I've become a wreck, and I don't deserve to be treated like this. What will you do if you give me ten at once this time?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Qin Deng sighed in his heart. Ever since his spiritual root was abolished, only this girl has always cared for him.
Three years ago, it was precisely because he bumped into Liu Mingyu bullying her that Qin Deng came out angrily to fight with Liu Mingyu, and was finally beaten to the point that he was almost scattered.
"I ...... I still have ......."
6 Xiaoxiao's cheeks turned red, and she continued to whisper: "Senior Brother Qin, there are still three months left before the challenge, for sure...... There will definitely be a lot of people who will challenge you, so you must keep it up for your ...... Don't be discouraged, I believe in you, and you will be fine. ”
"I'm leaving, I'll find time to send you the pill next month......"
6 After Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he stuffed the jade bottle into Qin Deng's hand, and ran out lightly.
