Chapter 127: The Spiritual Root
In this way, the two of them chatted as they walked, in fact, it was small talk, but it was better to say that Han Li was asking, and the young man was answering.
From this young man's mouth, Han Li let the other party unknowingly get some information about the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and knew a lot of common sense things that Immortal Cultivators should know.
For example, immortal cultivators should be divided into three stages: the lower realm, the middle realm, and the upper realm.
The lower realm includes five layers, such as refining qi, building the foundation, knotting the Dan, Yuan Ying, and transforming the gods, and the middle realm has three layers of refining the void, merging, and Mahayana.
But it's easy to say, but it's out of reach to really cultivate!
Not to mention the ascension of the three realms, that is, the initial lower realm, refining to the top level of the god stage, according to what this young man said, there has never been a single person in the entire Yue country. Even those who wandered in the infancy period were very few, only a few old monsters with deep fortunes.
According to the young man, the lifespan of an immortal cultivator can be closely related to the realm of cultivation. Each level of ascension represents an exponential increase in your lifespan.
Worldly mortals can live to be more than 100 years old, which is a rare longevity in the world.
And it is normal for a successful immortal cultivator to live for more than two hundred years. If someone can get away with the golden pill, he will live to be four or five hundred years old, and there is even more hope. If there is another miracle that makes you go against the sky and condense into a Yuan Baby, then congratulations, even if you want to have a thousand years old, it is not impossible!
When the young man in white said this, he couldn't stop smacking his lips, envious of those old monsters who could live for a thousand or eight hundred years, this is ten times the lifespan of ordinary people!
Han Li was dumbfounded as he listened, although he also vaguely guessed that the lifespan of an immortal cultivator would definitely be longer than that of ordinary people, but he didn't expect such an outrageous thing! To have a lifespan of thousands of years, wouldn't that really be a thousand-year-old king? Han Li couldn't help but think with some malice.
However, if you can live for so long in the Yuan Infant Period, wouldn't it be even more outrageous to have a long life in the Avatar Stage and other people in the middle realm, or even in the upper realm?
Han Li finally couldn't hold back and knocked on the side of the question.
"Who knows? Maybe you will live longer, maybe you won't live at all?" said the young man with a big grin.
"According to rumors, if an immortal cultivator really refines to the stage of transforming into a god and refines this realm to great perfection, then he must leave our world and go to another higher-level space, what space and world it is, no one knows, and no one has ever returned. ”
"No one has ever come back, so how are these realms above the Transformation Stage divided?" Han Li thought a little depressedly, but when he asked this question to the eldest young master in front of him, it was estimated that he would not be able to explain it clearly, so he still endured it and did not ask.
In addition to the realm division of immortal cultivators, Han Li also had a general understanding of the immortal cultivation sect and the immortal cultivation family in this Yue country.
This young man didn't know about other places, but as far as the matter of the entire Yue Kingdom's Immortal Cultivation Sect was concerned, the young man was quite right.
From his mouth, Han Li knew that in the Yue Kingdom, there were seven Immortal Cultivation Sects, which were divided into the Moon Covering Sect, the Yellow Maple Valley, the Spirit Beast Mountain, the Qingxu Sect, the Transformation Knife Dock, the Tianque Fort, the Giant Sword Sect and other sects, among these sects, the Moon Covering Sect was the strongest, the Spirit Beast Mountain was close behind, and the other sects were all about the same, and there was no disparity that was too powerful.
If these sects of cultivating immortals are the towering trees that support the entire Yue Kingdom Immortal Cultivation Realm, then the Xiuzhen family is more or less a variety of branches and vines entangled in their bodies, and they need to use these sects to survive in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
According to the young man's mysterious words, as long as the immortal cultivation family is a little older, its ancestors are all disciples in these sects, and it is the continuation of the bloodline of these disciples.
The reason why this is the case is that it is necessary to talk about the "spiritual root" that all immortal cultivators have in common.
What the "spiritual root" is, most immortal cultivators can't figure it out. But they all know that if a person doesn't have a "spiritual root", then don't even think about cultivating immortals, because you can't sense the aura at all, let alone cultivate mana!
But people who are born with "spiritual roots" are too few among ordinary people, and they can even be said to be one in ten thousand, one in tens of thousands. But that's it, the people who have the spiritual root and can embark on the path of cultivating immortals still only account for a little bit of it, and the vast majority of people still live a mediocre life. Because it is really difficult to select people with spiritual roots, they are too loosely distributed, which makes those immortal cultivation sects that want to recruit disciples feel a big headache.
And it is not that as long as there is a "spiritual root", it must meet the requirements of the Immortal Cultivation Sect. Because the "spiritual root" and the "spiritual root" are still very different, and there are good and bad.
Generally speaking, the "spiritual root" is divided into five elements such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, etc., and most people's spiritual roots are mixed with these five or four multiple attributes, although these people can also sense the aura of heaven and earth, but the effect of cultivation can be said to be miserable, basically can only practice the five elements of the basic exercises in the stage of refining qi, practice to the third or fourth layer, and then move forward an inch, and generally have no hope of crossing the foundation building period in their lives.
Therefore, spiritual roots with five or even four attributes are also called "pseudo-spiritual roots" in the immortal cultivation world, to show that they are different from "true spiritual roots" that only have two or three attributes and can be cultivated relatively quickly.
As for the single spiritual root with only one attribute, it is called "Heavenly Root" by the Immortal Cultivation Realm, which means the darling of the heavens. Because a person with this kind of spiritual root, no matter what attribute he is, his cultivation speed is two to three times that of an ordinary spiritual root person. Moreover, when you cultivate to the peak of the foundation building period, you don't need to face the bottlenecks that you should face when you enter the foundation stage, and you can easily start to form a pill.
If it is said that the cultivation speed is incredibly fast, which makes other immortal cultivators envious, then the "Heavenly Root" person's unbottlenecked ability to form a pill makes other immortal cultivators so jealous that they are about to vomit blood.
You must know that if it is said that among the ten Qi Refining Stage Immortal cultivators, only one can enter the Foundation Building Stage with the help of the Foundation Building Dan. Then one of the hundred people in the foundation building period may not be able to succeed in the foundation building period and enter the foundation stage.
With such a disparity in the proportion of knots, how could it not make other immortal cultivators very jealous, and the "Heavenly Root" people were blessed.
Therefore, whenever a Tiangen person appears, he is often frantically scrambling for various immortal cultivation sects, after all, this is equivalent to a great master who has booked a Dan period for this sect, which can greatly increase the strength of this sect.
However, the probability of the appearance of an anti-heaven spiritual root like the "Heavenly Root" is almost negligible, and it is basically discovered by the Immortal Cultivation Sect every hundreds of years. On the other hand, although it is not a "Heavenly Root", it is not a "Mutant Spiritual Root" that does not belong to the Five Elements Spiritual Root, and the probability of its appearance is relatively large, and one can appear every twenty or thirty years.
The so-called "mutated spiritual root" refers to the spiritual root that is mixed with two or three five element attributes and is mutated and sublimated.
Like the "Thunder Spirit Root" produced by the mutation of "Golden Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root"; The "Ice Spirit Root" produced after the mutation of the "Earth Spirit Root" and the "Water Spirit Root", and of course, there are other mutated spirit roots such as the "Dark Spirit Root" and the "Wind Spirit Root".
Although the immortal cultivator of the "Mutant Spirit Root" does not have the talent to be exempted from the bottleneck of the Formation Pill, his cultivation speed is not inferior to that of the "Heavenly Root" person, and if he can find exercises that match his attributes, most of these people will be great masters, and they can generally top three or four ordinary immortal cultivators of the same strength.
Therefore, people with mutated spiritual roots are also people who are extremely popular among the major immortal cultivation sects.
But in the past, not to mention such geniuses as "Heavenly Root" and "Mutant Spiritual Root", the Immortal Cultivation Sect could not easily find them, even ordinary "True Spiritual Root" people, and it was very difficult for the various sects to find them.
You must know that only one out of 10,000 people can have a spiritual root, and only one of the five or six people with a spiritual root can find out who is a true spiritual root.
As a result, under such harsh search conditions, there have even been times in the history of the immortal cultivation world, where there are only a few cats and dogs left in some small sects, which almost made the entire sect break the strange news of inheritance.
Faced with this embarrassing situation, some people with a heart finally found out after painstaking research that this "spiritual root" is very easy to appear in people who inherit the same bloodline.
For example, if one of the male and female duo has a spiritual root, then the child they give birth to will have a one-in-four chance that they will also have a spiritual root. Of course, if both parents are the owners of spiritual roots, then the chances of their offspring appearing spiritual roots are even greater, and it is not uncommon for all children born to be spiritual root owners.
The discovery of this matter made those who were interested in it very excited.
Under their encouragement, many young disciples of the sect at that time were sent out by their elders to start a family in the secular world, and when they had children, they returned to the sect to continue their cultivation.
In this way, when these immortal cultivation sects lacked disciples anymore, they directly selected children with spiritual roots from the families of their portal disciples, and the proportion of their true spiritual roots also greatly increased.
In this way, the big problem of the lack of disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Sect has finally been alleviated.
Although the probability of giving birth to a spiritual root among ordinary people is still so low, in general, there are more and more people who have spiritual roots, and those who inherit the spiritual root bloodline, there are endless spiritual root disciples. After a long time, after slowly branching out, the current Xiuzhen family was formed.
These high-level exercises of the Xiuzhen family may not be available, but there is no shortage of slightly shallow immortal cultivation methods, and they have gradually become the peripheral gateways of various immortal cultivation sects, and they also have a certain degree of independence.
Therefore, behind each Xiuzhen family, there is generally a sect of cultivating immortals supporting it, which should not be underestimated.
This young man in white has not been so happy in front of others for a long time.
The feeling of being listened to intently by others gave him the momentum of not vomiting and being unhappy, and his favorability towards Han Li also greatly increased, and without thinking, he shook out all the things he knew about the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and he looked like he was showing off in front of Han Li.
Han Li was naturally very happy to listen to it, and sometimes he even interjected to provoke a few words, making the young man speak more cheerfully. But unfortunately, the hillside, which was shrouded in fog all day long, was not too far from the small village, and after walking for a few hours, the two still came to the slope.
Such a short distance made Han Li very unhappy, he hadn't heard enough about the Immortal Cultivation Realm at all, and he couldn't wait to turn around and start all over again. However, of course, he knew that this was impossible, so he had to look at the young man who kept his mouth shut, and his eyes lit up in the fog.
