Chapter 327: Chapter 326: Derived Spirit Root, Completing Spirit Root (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
About three days later, Lu Xuanji’s body became withered, and his skin turned dry, giving off a sense of being exhausted and devoid of life.
This is a sign that the consumption of magical power has been too great during insight.
Ye Wanyi came forward and directly fed him a Creation Pill.
Lu Xuanji’s withered body gained a hint of vitality and a touch of rosiness.
Time passed by, and about ten days later, Lu Xuanji burst into laughter with a slight flush on his face, laughing, "What a pity, what a pity!"
At that moment, he felt his body was a bit stiff, and his arms were somewhat dry and lacking moisture.
His floating body had aching legs and a sore waist.
"Husband, look at yourself!"
Ye Wanyi took a mirror.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Lu Xuanji was startled; what kind of weird thing was it in the mirror?
He took out some Spiritual Liquid, consumed it, extracted energy from the Grotto World Pearl to compensate for his own depletion, and only after a long time did his body return to its original form, looking attractive once more.
"Husband, how was this enlightenment?"
Ye Wanyi asked.
"The gains were significant, and I experienced a lot of sudden realizations. I restructured the Golden Core and organized the cultivation technique. At this moment, I’m in an unprecedentedly good state!" Lu Xuanji laughed, "It’s just a pity that my comprehension is still lacking; I was unable to synthesize these techniques as a whole—only my cultivation improved somewhat!"
Here, there was endless regret.
The Yin Yang Transformation, Pure Yang Scripture, and others are scriptures left by Immortals. He comprehended them, hoping to integrate and create a supreme cultivation technique, but alas, he was still a bit short and failed to create a scripture.
But regarding these two scriptures, he had a new understanding, and his compatibility with them was increasing.
At the position of the Dantian, the Golden Core had shrunk to the size of a grain, rotating like a black hole.
Inside the black hole, Yin Yang Qi circulated, continuously creating and destroying.
The Yin Yang Qi can transform into the power of creation, becoming endless vitality to nourish all things; however, if the Yin Yang Qi collides, it transforms into the power of positive and negative annihilation, thereby obliterating all things.
In terms of realm, he was still at the Golden Core Fourth Transformation, but his combat power had increased by more than two layers.
The limit of magical power was increasing, and the Golden Core could accommodate more magical power.
"Congratulations, husband!"
Ye Wanyi smiled.
"Thank you for taking care of me these past few days!" Lu Xuanji said.
Ye Wanyi said, "Husband, how do you see Sister Linglong?"
"No particular view, just a passerby!" Lu Xuanji said, his words calm, without a ripple.
"Back in those days, Sister Linglong already had regrets. At the time of her departure, she even left a token; husband can go to the Ye Family, or the Divine Water Palace!" Ye Wanyi said, "Don’t you want to rekindle the past love?"
"No need, let the past stay in the past!"
Lu Xuanji said flatly.
Ye Wanyi wanted to continue speaking, but turned to silence.
...
Driven by escape light, the two disappeared.
Within half a day, the two returned to the Lu Family.
After arriving at the Lu Family, Ye Wanyi went to handle the affairs of the clan, while Lu Xuanji went to the medicine garden, took out two packs of spiritual medicine seeds, and began planting.
The first spiritual medicine seed was named Inference Spirit Grass.
This grass can allow a mortal to derive a Spirit Root.
A first-grade Inference Spirit Grass has only a one in a thousand chance to allow a mortal to develop a Spirit Root; a second-grade Inference Spirit Grass has a one percent chance; a third-grade Inference Spirit Grass has a one in four chance; a fourth-grade Spirit Root, even a fifty percent chance; as for a fifth-grade Inference Spirit Grass, it’s guaranteed to give birth to Spirit Roots, with at least Three Spirit Roots.
To allow mortals to develop Spirit Roots is almost impossible for the lower-level cultivators.
But for Golden Core Cultivators, it’s just very challenging;
And for Nascent Soul Cultivators, it’s just a bit costly.
"If in this world, everyone had Spirit Roots, and everyone could cultivate..." Lu Xuanji’s thoughts wandered, suddenly considering a proposition.
But he quickly shook his head, directly dismissing this idea because resources are not sufficient.
It is said that in the ancient era, that era was when everyone had Spirit Roots, and everyone could cultivate, but the consumption of world resources was also enormous. After some time, it entered the End of Dharma Era.
Later, only a few people awakened Spirit Roots and embarked on a path of cultivation.
Not only that, in the ancient era, there was no distinction between the merits and demerits of Spirit Roots, and Five Elements Spirit Roots were not necessarily inferior to Celestial Spirit Roots.
Because in that era, resources were abundant enough to support the consumption of Five Elements Spirit Roots.
But in this era, Five Elements Spirit Roots have become wasted Spirit Roots because they consume too many resources, and the world cannot support such resource-heavy beings.
With the development of the world, those physiques and Spirit Roots that consume more resources faced the weariness of heaven and earth, not only slowing cultivation speed but also having particularly bad luck, gradually degrading into wasted bodies and wasted Spirit Roots; conversely, those with physiques and Spirit Roots that consumed fewer resources received the blessing of heavenly destiny, with vast potential and endless possibilities.
As for the notion that Five Elements Spirit Roots are invincible in the same realm, sorry, this holds little significance.
With a hundred years of cultivation time, under the same resources, Five Elements Spirit Roots only reach the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, while Celestial Spirit Roots have already become Purple Mansion Cultivators.
Even if Five Elements Spirit Roots are invincible in the same realm, could they still cross over a dozen small realms and defeat Celestial Spirit Roots? Stop dreaming.
...
Gathering his thoughts, he planted another spiritual medicine seed.
This spiritual medicine seed was called Spirit Replenishing Grass.
As the name suggests, Spirit Replenishing Grass can complete a cultivator’s Spirit Root.
By planting Spirit Replenishing Grass in Spiritual Soil, over time, it will display different attributes. Some show Gold Attribute, and upon consumption, will develop Gold Spirit Roots; if it has Earth Attribute, it can develop into Earth Spirit Roots; if it has Wood Attribute, it can develop into Wood Spirit Roots.
Spirit Replenishing Grass is only useful to cultivators at the fourth grade or above.
For example, a cultivator with Gold and Wood Dual Spirit Root, after consuming Fire Attribute Spirit Replenishing Grass, will develop into Gold, Wood, and Fire Three Spirit Roots.
If a Golden Core Cultivator wants all Five Elements present, they can consume relevant Spirit Replenishing Grass to transform into Five Elements Spirit Roots.
Of course, only Golden Core Cultivators would think of completing their Spirit Roots, increasing their attributes, and diversifying their attack methods.
As for cultivators below the Golden Core, if they consume Spirit Replenishing Grass, causing their spirit to become chaotic and slowing down their cultivation, it would adversely affect their path.
"Inference Spirit Grass can let mortals bear Spirit Roots. If the son of a Nascent Soul True Monarch is unfortunate, born without Spirit Roots, Inference Spirit Grass can generate them, letting him embark on the cultivation path. As for Golden Core Cultivators, consuming fourth-grade Spirit Replenishing Grass can diversify their Spirit Roots and variety of attacks."
"But these two types of spirit grass seem somewhat dispensable in terms of medicinal effects, not greatly useful!"
Lu Xuanji pondered.
He remembered that on a certain Golden Core stall, after spending two hundred Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to buy a piece of Divine Material, these two bags of spiritual medicine seeds were given to him as a bonus, seemingly as free gifts.
