Chapter 4: The Spiritual Root Test
On May 15, Mengsheng got up early in the morning and came to the reeds with Xiaoqing, who was sleeping heavily. The dead cat has never woken up from sleep since he came back that day, so it must have been broken by eating the "pigeon eggs" of the long snake. Today, I'm going to participate in the Huilingmen recruitment with Huzi, so I can't hold on to a "dead cat".
Mengsheng found the artemisia grass and placed Xiaoqing in the small cave left behind after the five-colored stone left, and covered it with another layer of artemisia grass. Afraid that Xiaoqing would wake up hungry, Mengsheng went to the edge of the pool to catch some small fish and shrimp or something, and put them on the edge of the cave.
"Let it go back to where it lives, and come back to it when you have the chance. Mengsheng thought. Then he went to Uncle Li's house.
"The dream is here, Huzi, let's go. Uncle Li walked out of the village with his two children.
This year, the Huilingmen recruitment test is set up in Meiguanzhuang. Meiguanzhuang is a manor of a eunuch surnamed Mei, because its ancestors had a ancestor in the Dan period, and the ancestor of Huilingmen has some origins, so Huilingmen is basically located in Meiguanzhuang in Louyi. About half a day's journey, the three of them came to Meiguanzhuang and saw that there were no less than 1,000 people in the village, all of whom were children from Louyi County who came to take the exam. Mengsheng saw that Cai Mao and Yan Jin were also in the crowd, and the two grinned at Mengsheng with a mocking face. It turned out that the patriarchs of the two major families had already made a private deal with the elders of the Huiling Sect through their relationship, and as long as the two of them passed the test, the two families would provide a certain number of spirit stones to the elder. Therefore, Cai Mao and Yan Jin didn't take the test seriously at all. In general, if children want to enter, they have to go through a strict selection. Of course, these are unknown to Mengsheng.
After a while, two people walked out of the inner hall, looking like a fairy spirit, and one of them said in a slightly younger voice: "I am Qingming, and Elder Xumu of this sect is responsible for this recruitment." Now I announce the rules of the test: all children under the age of 15 can participate in the Introductory Root Test. The so-called spiritual root is a special attribute contained in each person's body, which is naturally generated, and some are stimulated by a special condition, and then continuously developed through cultivation. These attributes, generally have five kinds of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which are called the five element attributes, also known as spiritual roots. If a person has a dominant position in the water attribute of his inner body, then he is the water spirit root, and if the wood attribute is the main position, then he is the wood spirit root. Only those who meet the requirements of the spiritual root can become disciples of this sect. The following is tested by Elder Xumu for everyone. β
Elder Xumu took out a round ball, put it on the table, and said: "Not everyone in the world can cultivate immortals, it also depends on whether you have immortal fate, line up one by one, and cover your hands with the spirit ball, the spirit ball will shine according to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and you will know whether you have the spiritual root of cultivation." Eligible stand on the right, and vice versa on the left. Now beginβ"
A plainly dressed teenager stepped forward and put his hand on the spirit ball, and there was no movement for a long time. "Not eligible, stand on the left. Next. Xumu said with a wave of his hand.
A little girl in a fine floral skirt stepped forward, and after a while, a faint blue light emitted from the spirit ball, enveloping the entire spirit ball, flashing with a dreamlike brilliance, which was very charming.
"Yes, after all, Meiguanzhuang has produced a predecessor who cultivates immortals, girl, you are a single-attribute superb water spirit root. Stand on the right. β
Ah! Single-attribute best water spirit root, people know that the more spirit roots, the better.
The team of thousands of people was slowly moving forward, there were more and more people on the left, and there were only five standing on the right, among which Cai Mao and Yan Jin were among them. When did they pass the test? Mengsheng looked at the two of them suspiciously. And the two of them looked arrogant.
The line slowly squirmed, and the people in front of them were decreasing one by one. Mengsheng was a little apprehensive, looked around, and saw Huzi stepping forward to test.
"The three spiritual roots of earth, wood and fire, barely passed. With Xumu's shout, Huzi was overjoyed and waved at Mengsheng.
Finally it was Mengsheng's turn, Mengsheng stretched out his right hand and put it on the spirit ball, and suddenly, the gold, blue, blue, red, and yellow lights suddenly lit up on the spirit ball, and the five-colored lights reflected each other.
"Ahh He knew that this spiritual root was the body of heaven and earth gathering spirits, and the speed of cultivating exercises and absorbing spiritual energy was several times that of ordinary people, and this spiritual root could not be taken away, and it had only appeared once since Pangu opened the world, and that person was Pangu. Just thinking about it, suddenly the spirit ball returned to normal, only to see Mengsheng pressing the ball hard, there was no light, Mengsheng's face was full of frustration, it seemed that he had to go back to the firewood room, and he had to suffer from Cai's bullying again.
"No, if it's really the Chaos Spirit Root, the five-colored light will last forever, and eventually it will blend with each other and become one, but how can it be extinguished in a while. It can't be the Five Elements Spirit Root inspired by eating some fairy grass, right?" Xumu pondered.
"Boy, did you eat any fruit?"
"Back to Elder, Xiao Sheng once ate five five-colored fruits that grew on the five-colored stone. Mengsheng didn't dare to tell the five more he ate in his dream, he was afraid that he would not be able to tell himself if asked.
"Ah, it turns out that you have eaten the Five Elements Immortal Fruit. The first time you eat the Five Elements Immortal Fruit can stimulate the spiritual root, but not everyone can eat it when you encounter it, if it is a single spiritual root, it will become the Five Elements Miscellaneous Spiritual Root if you eat it; And this fruit can only be eaten twice at most, and any more is ineffective, but it can be used to refine pills. Is the fairy tree still there?"
"Elder, after I ate the immortal fruit, the stone and the immortal tree disappeared. β
"Well, this is also your chance, let me ask you again, after you eat, did you feel that there were five strands of true qi flowing in your body, and then put five fragrant farts in a row?" Xumu's question caused laughter.
Mengsheng replied softly shyly.
"Haha, fragrant fart, I said it's a stinky boy. Cai Mao and Yan Jin burst into laughter.
Elder Xumu shouted loudly, and said to Mengsheng: "You don't have a spiritual root, but after eating the Five Elements Immortal Fruit, the spiritual root was stimulated, although it is weak, it is a Five Elements Miscellaneous Spiritual Root, but you can also cultivate the Immortal Law, of course, it depends on your perseverance and understanding! Go to the right." Then, I continued to test.
In the end, there were only nine people standing on the right, while there were four people in Mengsheng Village, including Huzi, Cai Mao, and Yan Jin.
Qing Ming raised his voice and announced: "There are nine people who have passed the test and are qualified, and these nine people will be my Huiling Sect disciples from today onwards. Tomorrow I will return to my main faction for the initiation ceremony. Now everyone is gone. β
The two immortal chiefs were welcomed into the inner hall by the owner of Meiguanzhuang, and the nine children who passed the test were arranged by their own people without mentioning the accommodation.
