The book also introduces the characteristics of the five spiritual roots of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of their corresponding techniques.

The gold spell is both offensive and defensive, and it is strong both offensively and defensively. However, the cultivation of the golden Dao method is the most difficult, and it is difficult for those with slightly inferior qualifications to succeed, because the golden mana nourishes the physical body the worst, and the pressure on the physical body is the greatest when condensing the true element, so it is extremely difficult to build a foundation.

The wood system is weak in attack and defense, and it is overcome by the gold system, but the wood system aura is the most nourishing body, and most of the various pills are practiced by plants and trees, and the wood system exercises also have a special advantage in absorbing and refining pills, so the cultivation speed is the crown of the five elements.

The water system is not good at tackling tough problems, but the water nature is soft, it has a miraculous effect in trapping the enemy, blocking the enemy, and disturbing the enemy, and the water system magic method does not lose to others when fighting the law, and the water system aura is only slightly worse than the wood system for the nourishment of the body, and the water system mana can wash the erysipelas that gather in the body after taking the pill, so the cultivation speed of the water system is not weak.

The fire system Dao method is extremely strong in attack and extremely weak in defense. Although the fire-based mana cannot nourish the physical body, it can use the characteristics of fire to exercise the physical body with secret methods, and its effect is not worse than the nourishing effect of the wood system, and it can also refine the erysipelas after taking the pill, so the cultivation speed of the fire-based Dao method is also extremely fast; but the fire-based mana is violent; it is extremely difficult to condense the true element, so although the cultivation speed is not slow, most of them will be blocked by the foundation building pass.

The earth system is good at guarding the law, and the attack power is not weak, but both the casting speed and the spell flight speed are the slowest, and they are often helpless against opponents who are faster. Earth-based mana is also not good at nourishing the body. However, earth-based mana is the most inclusive, and even if the mana is slightly impure, it can often be successfully built.

In addition to the Five Elements Spirit Root, there are three extremely rare Alien Spirit Roots, namely the Ice Spirit Root, the Wind Spirit Root, and the Thunder Spirit Root.

These three kinds of spirit roots are extremely special and will never be mixed with other spirit roots;

In the book, it is speculated that the Ice Spirit Root may be a mutation of the Water Spirit Root. Ice mana nourishes the body, and the effect of refining erysipelas is not as good as that of the water spirit root, but the ice type spell is much stronger than the water spirit root in attack and defense, and it is not like the water type spell that will be overcome by the earth system spell, so the disciples with the ice type spirit root are all treasures that various sects compete for.

However, the status of the wind spirit root and the thunder spirit root, which are also alien spirit roots, is greatly inferior.

The nourishment of the wind mana to the physical body is worse than that of the gold system, and the essence of the wind system mana is loose, and it is even more difficult than the fire system when it is condensed into the true element; even if the wind system Dao method is cultivated, it is the weakest among the cultivators of the same level, except for the speed of escape, it can be described as useless; the wind system shield cannot defend against the attacks of other systems of the same level at all. The casting speed of wind spells is extremely fast, but the power is miserable, compared to the weakest attack power of water spells, it is less than thirty percent.

The power of the thunder spell is extremely strong, and its mana has the same effect on the exercise of the physical body as the fire mana, but the extreme violence of the thunder mana makes its two major passes of building the foundation and the dan simply insurmountable. In the Xiliang Kingdom, from ancient times to the present, there is only one Wulei Zhenren who can cultivate the Thunder Dao Method to the level of Jindan or above.

This "Preliminary Explanation of the Five Elements Dao Technique" records the cultivation exercises corresponding to the seven spiritual roots, and each exercise is followed by two or three kinds of spells; the exercises are only the first four layers of the Qi cultivation period, and the spells paid are all first-order spells.

After Xiao Ziyang finished reading the book, it was already the dead of night, he carefully put the book away, and took out the magic weapon from the package, "Inheritance Treasure Book", according to the instructions on the album with this magic weapon, this magic weapon like a small bronze mirror was clasped in his hand, and the circular boss behind the bronze mirror was aimed at the palm of his hand.

According to the album, the true qi of the martial artist can also be stimulated. He pointed the bronze mirror at his heart, but it was not activated for a long time.

Xiao Ziyang took a deep breath and slowly sent the internal force into the magic weapon, and a pillar of light immediately emitted from the mirror and shone on his chest.

Xiao Ziyang looked up nervously and stared at the sky, time passed little by little, but the top of his head was always empty.

According to the album, if a person illuminated by the light emitted by this bronze mirror has a spiritual root, a rainbow light that is consistent with the attributes of the person's spiritual root will appear above his head.

The rainbow light emitted by the golden spirit root is golden, the rainbow light emitted by the wood spirit root is emerald green, the rainbow light emitted by the water spirit root is azure blue, the rainbow light emitted by the fire spirit root is red, the rainbow light emitted by the earth spirit root is earthy yellow, the rainbow light emitted by the ice spirit root is white, the rainbow light emitted by the wind spirit root is cyan, and the thunder spirit root is more special, and what is emitted is not rainbow light, but a lightning bolt.

Every time a spiritual root is added, there will be one more rainbow or lightning. If the person being illuminated has several different spiritual roots, the treasure will trigger different numbers of rainbow lights of different colors according to the different qualities of the spiritual roots.

If the irradiated person is the Heavenly Spirit Root, the rainbow light will be extremely pure, and if the irradiated person has mixed spiritual roots, the rainbow light will faintly reveal the slightest streamer of the mixed spiritual roots in its original color.

Therefore, when this treasure is illuminated, you will definitely be able to see what kind of quality the five elements of the spiritual root of the illuminated person are, which one is the one in the chaos of heaven, earth and man.

After a meal, Xiao Ziyang accepted the magic weapon in disappointment. However, he was not completely desperate, because neither the "Preliminary Solution of the Five Elements Dao Technique" nor the album attached to the Inheritance Treasure Book mentioned the Chaos Spirit Root.

Although there is still a glimmer of hope in his heart, he probably does not have a spiritual root, and the blow to Xiao Ziyang is still very huge.

He didn't even bother to pack up the loose packages, so he collapsed on the bed with his clothes and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Xiao Ziyang took out the cheats of "Purple Jade Smoke" that he had been carrying, and comforted himself well before recovering some of his spirits.

After dressing up in disguise, Xiao Ziyang went out and went straight to Shangyuan City Huisheng Hall.

In the next few days, he went to Huishengtang to buy medicinal materials with different identities every day, and the medicinal materials he bought every day did not exceed 10,000 taels of silver; after buying the medicinal materials, he used the techniques he learned from An Yuchan to cut the medicinal materials into thin slices, dried them, and wrapped them separately.

Half a month later, Xiao Ziyang embarked on the journey back to Nanba County.

Nanba County is located in the southernmost part of Xiliang Kingdom.

The territory of Xiliang is extremely vast, nearly 10,000 miles from north to south, but the difference in climate between north and south is not too big.

The snow in Nanba County this winter is only slightly later than in the north.

Xiao Ziyang rode a jujube red horse, stepped on the first snow of this winter in Nanba County, and returned to Cangshan Village.
