Chapter 462: Spiritual Root (II)

Zhan Chen had also made many assumptions before, but he didn't expect that the entry assessment point of the Spirit Crane Sect would be set up in such a conspicuous place, and he had obviously worked so hard to find it before. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

The Immortal Dao Sect, which had always been unfathomable in his mind, would even rent a shop in this downtown area to attract people to join them. Zhan Chen had to wonder if he had hallucinations, so much so that he stood at the door for a while before he was convinced that all this was real.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he walked into the Linghe Sect assessment point. As soon as you enter the door, you will see a strange scene, there are more than a dozen warriors kneeling on the floor of the hall with a heavy barbell on their shoulders. Most of them had even turned pale and their lips blue, but they still gritted their teeth and held on, holding on to the bell.

On the other side of the room, two young men in Taoist robes were sitting leisurely at the coffee table sipping fragrant tea, seemingly not caring at all about the lives of those holding pole bells on the ground.

When Zhan Chen saw the two young men in Dao robes, his expression couldn't help but tighten, because he couldn't distinguish the specific cultivation of these two people, which meant that they were probably both Dao powerhouses!

Seeing Zhan Chen walk in the door, one of the young men in Dao robes stood up, came to him, and asked arrogantly, "Are you here to be tested?"

Zhan Chen was stunned for a moment, and bowed his hand and said, "Yes, senior." ”

"Okay, let me state to you first, there is only one condition for joining our Spirit Crane Sect, and that is that the Spirit Root must reach the middle grade or above. ”

Zhan Chen was stunned again, and asked, "Then aren't there any specific requirements for cultivation?"

"Cultivation is not important, as long as you have a top-grade spiritual root or a top-grade spiritual root, then even if you are a martial artist, or even a martial apprentice, our Linghe Sect will welcome it, you know that the most important thing to cultivate immortals is to see the word 'immortal yuan', without immortal fate, no matter how hard you work, you can't become an immortal, this point is the same in any sect!" the young man said arbitrarily.

At this moment, Zhan Chen wanted to refute immediately, but he didn't do it after all, because doing so was a thankless task for him, so he had no choice but to remain silent.

"Alright, let's see what kind of spiritual root you are!" said the young man as he took out a palm-sized ball from the storage ring in his hand, and the ball was white and warm as jade, shining with a charming luster.

"This bead is called the Spirit Measuring Stone, you just need to put your palm on it and send a trace of True Yuan into it. If the ball glows gray, it will glow with inferior grades, if it is a low-grade spiritual root, it will glow green, if it is a medium-grade spiritual root, it will glow blue, if it is a high-grade spiritual root, it will glow red, and if it is a top-grade spiritual root, it will glow purple!"

Zhan Chen could clearly perceive the envy that flashed in the eyes of the young man in the robe when he talked about the top-grade spiritual root and the top-grade spiritual root.

However, he obviously didn't think that Zhan Chen had such qualifications, otherwise how could he choose a small immortal sect like the Spirit Crane Sect? Obviously, a few streets away, it was the assessment point of the Jade Xiao Palace, and people with a little qualification would inevitably go there to try their luck.

However, he still said stylizedly: "Okay, you come here to try it, what grade of spiritual root is it, if it is an inferior spiritual root, or a low-grade spiritual root, our Spirit Crane Sect will not accept you." ”

Zhan Chen looked at the spirit measuring stone in the young man's hand, and his heartbeat couldn't help but start to accelerate, although he had already obtained his spiritual root from Master Zhiyuan before was a top-grade spiritual root, but when it was really time to test, it was inevitable that there would be a mentality of gaining and losing, what if it wasn't?

He slowly raised his hand and pressed his palm against the spirit stone, the surface of which was so cold to the touch that it seemed to make him feel a chill all over his body.

Zhan Chen took a deep breath and stabilized his mind before injecting a trace of true yuan into the spirit measuring stone, and the spirit measuring stone immediately responded, blooming with a red light, illuminating the entire hall.

For a while, the eyes of everyone in the room were attracted, and the two young men in Dao robes were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground, and they muttered, "This, this is a high-grade spiritual root!"

This fiery red light was just like the brilliance of the sun, sweeping away the chill on Zhan Chen's body, making a happy smile bloom on his face, and he thought excitedly in his heart: "This is really good! Master Zhiyuan is not wrong at all, I have the Upper Crystal Spirit Root!"

"This junior brother, my name is Chen Song, what's your name!" The young man in the Taoist robe began to take the initiative to introduce himself, his face was also cloudy and sunny, showing an amiable smile, as if Zhan Chen was already his fellow disciple.

Zhan Chen was also flattered, why did the young man be condescending to him, and he was puzzled: "Senior brother, but I haven't joined the Spirit Crane Sect yet." ”

"Haha, you have a top-grade spiritual root, you have already been entered, and it is inevitable to become a disciple of the Spirit Crane Sect, and it is not wrong for me to call you a junior brother. Chen Song said with a smile.

Zhan Chen also nodded happily, thinking, "I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, fortunately, I have a good spiritual root." Then he said to Chen Song: "Then, please allow me to dare to call you Senior Brother Chen, my name is Zhan Chen." ”

"Senior Brother Zhan, my name is Zhou Ren!" At this time, another young man in a Dao robe also took the initiative to greet him and greeted him warmly.

"Senior Brother Chen, Senior Brother Zhou, why did you suddenly become so polite?" Zhan Chen said strangely.

Chen Song sighed and said, "Alas, the two of us are envious of you!"

"Envy me, could it be that you mean this high-grade spiritual root?"

"Yes, Zhou Ren and I only have medium-grade spiritual roots, I think as soon as you enter our sect, I am afraid that you will be cultivated by the sect, and even directly accepted by an elder as a personal disciple. ”

"Senior Brother Chen, I really don't understand, is the spiritual root so important?"

"It's not just important, it's crucial! Don't you know that having a good spiritual root can not only increase the chance of a martial artist breaking through to the realm of entering the Dao, but also affect the cultivation speed after breaking through. For example, if I am now cultivating to the first level of the Voyeur Yuan, and if you also break through to the first level of the Voyeur Yuan, and the two of us practice the same exercise, and the cultivation environment is exactly the same, then your cultivation speed is twice that of mine, and if you are a person with a top-grade spiritual root, under the same conditions, your cultivation speed will be four times that of mine! Moreover, in the future cultivation, every time you break through the bottleneck, a person with a good spiritual root will be much easier than a person with a poor spiritual root. ”

"I see!"

"Hehe, it's not just that!" Chen Song smiled bitterly: "A person's spiritual root also determines the level of his future achievements, people like me and Zhou Ren who have a medium-grade spiritual root, if they don't encounter a big adventure, then at most they can cultivate to the Yuan Shen Realm, and you are different, as long as you work hard, you may have the opportunity to break through the Ming Law Realm, or even the Law Body Realm in the future!"

"I didn't expect a spiritual root to be so important!" Zhan Chen couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time, he deeply felt that his luck was really good.

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhan, Zhou Ren and I can still call you that now, but soon, I'm afraid we will have to change our words to call you Senior Brother Zhan. Chen Song said.

When Zhan Chen heard him explain this, he could understand the reason why they suddenly became respectful to him, which could be regarded as an emotional investment in advance.

A few people were chatting energetically, when they suddenly heard a loud "ping" sound from the floor, interrupting their conversation.

Zhan Chen followed the prestige, and it turned out to be a warrior who could no longer bear the barbell on his shoulder and threw it on the ground.

Seeing this, Chen Song's face turned cold, and he said to him: "Ning Er, you have been eliminated, let's go!"

The man named Ning Er reluctantly shouted: "Immortal Master, please give me another chance!"

Chen Song said with a straight face: "No, this is the rule we have set, it's useless for you to ask for it!"

"Pleaseβ€”"

"Hmph, shameless thing, do you want me to take action to catch you?" Chen Song threatened.

A trace of fear flashed on Ning Er's face, and he quickly struggled to get up from the ground and limped out of the door.

Seeing this scene, Zhan Chen couldn't help but ask again: "Senior Brother Chen, these people are-"

"Senior Brother Zhan, these people are all people who have a low-grade spiritual root or a waste spiritual root. ”

"So, what does it mean that they're kneeling here, holding a barbell?"

Chen Song explained: "Senior Brother Zhan, don't you know, this can be regarded as a kind of assessment, it is an assessment specifically for martial artists with lower grade spiritual roots or waste spiritual roots, as long as they can hold the barbell here and persist for three days and three nights, they can also be regarded as passing the assessment, but the premise is that they can't move even once, otherwise they will be considered failures." ”

"So that's the case, how many pounds are one of these barbells?"

"One costs five million catties. ”

"Five million catties!" Zhan Chen gasped, five million catties is the limit of the strength of the martial saint Great Perfection martial artist, although these people are allowed to carry it on their shoulders, they must persist for three days and three nights, and they must remain motionless, plus these two conditions, it makes it almost impossible to pass this assessment.

Chen Song seemed to see Zhan Chen's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhan, this is also something that can't be helped, the rules set by the sect, our examiners can only follow them, besides, what's the use of these people just entering our sect? It will only waste resources, so I think the sect has set this rule just to make these people suffer a little and retreat!"

Zhan Chen groaned for a while: "No, the Spirit Crane Sect has set this rule not to make these people retreat, in my opinion, it is more like giving these people with poor natural qualifications a chance." But he didn't say it.

Chen Song's remarks drew angry glances from the warriors kneeling on the ground, but he didn't care about it. Yes, how can a person who has never been able to break through to the realm of entering the Dao in his life pose a threat to himself?

At this time, Zhou Ren said: "Senior Brother Zhan, don't worry about this, come and taste the spiritual tea produced by our Spirit Crane Sect Tianjian Peak, it is precious!"

"Oh, thank you, two senior brothers. Zhan Chen answered casually, and sat aside with the two of them to taste tea, but somehow, he didn't taste the tea at all, and his heart was still firmly tied to the warriors who were kneeling in the middle of the hall. Because he can't forget that he was once weak!
