Finally it was time to recruit disciples, on this day, there were many people in Yangcheng, young people from nearby villages and towns gathered in Yangcheng, looking forward to being able to ascend to the heavens one step at a time, the cries and sales of small traders and vendors were endless, and the rooms of the inn were all full, a prosperous scene.
The Five Great Cultivators set up five high platforms in the center of Yangcheng to test the linggen, called Dengxiantai. All those who meet the admission requirements of the sect can come up to the test.
The test is divided into two parts: first test the linggen, which is related to the question of whether it can cultivate immortals, a pentagonal magic instrument written on the top of the gold, wood, water, fire and earth is erected on the sendai, the tester queues up according to the number plate issued to test, the test process is very simple, as long as the hand is pressed on the magic instrument, no matter which direction, as long as the magic instrument emits light, it is qualified.
Even if five high platforms are tested at the same time, the process is very simple, and the test process is also very fast, but the number of people who need to test is too much, I am afraid that there are millions of them, and it is only about 30% when it is dark.
Lu Shang found that the vast majority of testers can not make the magic instrument shine, after so many days of understanding Lü Shang knows that there is no spirit root, can make the magic instrument shine in the testers in the four directions at the same time is very common, three directions at the same time to shine is not too much, two directions at the same time to shine very few, only three, five directions at the same time to shine only three, as for the one-way glow is not one.
Lu Shang understood what this all meant, after all, it was no secret that it was recruited once every ten years, the single spirit root and the double spirit root were also known as the true spirit root, the cultivation speed was very fast, and they were the darlings of the immortal realm.
Especially for single spirit root immortal cultivators, only when they advanced the divine period did they need to make up for the five elements induction heaven and earth aura to make a bottleneck breakthrough, and the rest of the time was almost enough mana, and the bottleneck breakthrough was not too difficult, but the number was too rare, basically it was more than a hundred years before one appeared.
Once it appeared, it was robbed by the major sects that broke their heads, and was called "Heavenly Spirit Root" by the Cultivation Immortal Realm, and there were some mutant spirit roots, the so-called "mutant spirit roots", which refers to the two or three five element attributes mixed together, and the spirit roots that are mutated and sublimated. Like the "Thunder Spirit Root" produced by the mutations of "Golden Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root"; the "Ice Spirit Root" produced after the mutation of "Earth Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root", the "Wind Spirit Root" produced after the mutation of "Fire Spirit Root" and "Water Spirit Root" of course, there are other mutated spirit roots such as "Dark Spirit Root" and "Light Spirit Root".
The cultivation speed of these "Mutant Spirit Roots" is not faster than that of the Double Spirit Roots, but when they use spells, they are extremely powerful and the number is also very rare, and they are also the objects of contention among various factions.
The three spirit roots are also relatively rare, if the cultivation method is appropriate, the elixir can also keep up, the general foundation building is promising, as for the four spirit roots and the five spirit roots, in the cultivation immortal world is called pseudo spirit root, if there is no other chance, this life will be at most to the eight or nine layers of cultivation qi, generally used as an outer door disciple, responsible for the cultivation of immortal world branches and leaves, gathering cultivation resources.
Lu Shang was looking forward to his spiritual root attributes. Not long after, Lü Shang pressed his hand on the magic instrument, only to see five directions light up at the same time, Lu Shang shook his head and smiled bitterly, it seemed that his qualifications were indeed poor.
For himself to be the Five Spirit Roots, Lu Shang is actually mentally prepared, after all, when the five elements are complete in order to better communicate with the spirits of heaven and earth, his own calculations are so accurate, there is no reason to be able to escape this shackles, which also explains from another aspect why people who have been proficient in fortune telling since ancient times generally do not have a long lifespan, in addition to bearing karma, their own cultivation is not high is also an important reason.
Three days later, the first round of linggen test ended, and the second round of spiritual body testing began, because it was only after passing the first round of testing that the second round of testing could be participated, so this time the number of people was very rare, and only more than 100 people participated.
The spirit root qualification determines the proportion of the mana absorbed by the aura to transform itself, and the spirit body depends on the affinity for the elements, not every cultivator with the spirit root has a spirit body, and the spirit body is also extremely rare. In particular, some special spirits, such as the "Yin Spirit Body", can attract some powerful ghosts as companion spirit pets, and can cross-level challenges when fighting.
The "Pure Yang Spirit Body" has a great ability to restrain the Yin Soul, and some special places are very much needed, and the "Five Elements Spirit Body" such as Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth can use the corresponding escape techniques that can only be used in the Yuan Infant Stage during the Jiedan Period, and there is an extremely powerful life-saving skill, as well as some other spirit bodies such as the "Wind Spirit Body" and the "Ice Spirit Body".
If the spiritual body is in line with the attributes of the spirit root, it will be even more anti-heavenly, and the cultivation is simply a thousand miles a day, of course, this situation is extremely rare, even rarer than the "Heavenly Spirit Root", such a cultivator once he grows up, he is a well-known power in the cultivation immortal world.
For example, the founding ancestor of the Yuding Immortal Gate, Yuding Zhenren, was the combination of the Fire Spirit Root and the Fire Spirit Body, and in just over five hundred years, he reached the late stage of the Divine Realm, and then he even ascended to the Immortal Realm on the "Flying Sendai", which is simply a legend in this realm.
This test was carried out in a closed large cover-like magic instrument, as long as the tester stood in the magic instrument, there were corresponding elements manifested, tested more than thirty times, only a four-spirit root wood spirit body appeared, Lu Shang secretly thought: This ratio is really low enough.
However, the elders of the various sects who were testing next to them were a commonplace look. As a glorious Five Spirit Root monk, Lü Shang was of course ranked last, and when Lü Shang entered the large hood, a lightning-like symbol slowly appeared.
"Thunder Spirit Body! This is really relatively rare, but it is a pity that it is actually a pseudo linggen, otherwise it is really a head robbery. An old man of the Immortal Wind Dao Bone said regretfully.
Lu Shang was also shocked after hearing the three words of the Thunder Spirit Body, and he suddenly understood why the Heavenly Thunder of Death Valley would come directly to him.
After a while, the spirit body was also tested. The five sect leaders gathered together to discuss for a while, and a man with a long crown took out a small boat-like magic instrument and chanted a mantra in his mouth, and the small boat magic instrument grew in the wind, and it grew more than a hundred feet in size in a short time. The crowd had seen such a scene there, and they were all stunned for a while. Lu Shang shouted in his heart, "This must be a magic art, I don't know when I will be able to learn it." ”
Seeing the form of the people who had never seen the world, the long-crowned man said impatiently, "Don't delay, come up and sit down, you are going to Immortal Edge City soon." ”
The crowd did not dare to delay, hurriedly entered the big boat in turn and sat down, but they did not dare to make half a sound, as if they were immersed in the shock just now.
With the sound of the long-crowned man "rising", the large ship turned into a stream of light and flew in the sky. Seeing that everyone was still trembling, the long-crowned man put away the seriousness he had just had and said in a loud voice, "Er, don't be nervous, at this time there is nothing to do, let Elder Ben explain to you the rules for recruiting disciples, and let you little guys take fewer detours." ”
"Our five schools of recruiting disciples are divided into three steps, testing the spirit root, the spirit body, and the immortal edge. The first two steps you have all tested, and now the place to go is to test your Immortal Edge, a city pool "Immortal Edge City" jointly established by our five factions, next to the Immortal Edge City is a large canyon, the Immortal Realm is called the Immortal Edge Valley, this canyon grows a lot of elixirs, usually there are arrays of guards, can not be picked, only once every ten years when recruiting new disciples, new disciples are allowed to go in to pick the elixirs, for the use of the master. This is because most of the cultivators are selfish, if there is no gift to open the way, there will be no one willing to accept apprentices to teach art, unless those who are very qualified, but this part of the people are after all a minority, representing the high-end combat strength of a sect, only responsible for cultivation every day, can not bother to participate in other things, the usual operation also needs to be a disciple with average qualifications, otherwise it will soon break the Daoist lineage. And half of the herbs you collected will be left behind, and the rest will be used for your alchemy, and the more you collect, the easier it will be to cultivate in the early stage. Therefore, you must do your best in the process of collection! Especially those with average qualifications, you must not be mistaken! ”
When everyone heard this, their hearts were fiery, and they felt that there was truth in the human world, as if a golden avenue was in front of them, and it was not a word to become immortal and holy. But Lu Shang was secretly thinking: "Usually after saying good things, they will add but if they are not like that, this is the real meaning to be expressed." ”
Sure enough, after the long-crowned man looked at the joyful and excited appearance of the crowd for a while, he duly poured a scoop of cold water: "However, the elixir inside is not a weed on the side of the road after all, after so many years of picking, the number left is not much, whether you can meet or not is your fate, which is also the origin of the name of Xianyuan City." ”
"Uproar", the enthusiasm of the crowd faded by half.
The long-crowned man then said, "Moreover, in the Immortal Edge Valley, there are no restrictions on the rest, except that you can't hurt people's lives, that is to say, when you meet the herb, it is also the edge, and the person who meets the person holding the herb is also the edge." I mean you understand no, you're still happy, haha! ”
Speaking of this, Lu Shang estimated that at least half of them were greeting the eighteenth generation ancestor of the long-crowned man in their hearts, and the remaining half wanted to kill him, and the only ones who were really happy were those few scattered cultivators, although their cultivation was not high, they were enough to crush others.
Someone exclaimed, "Isn't that encouraging robbery?" How can those of us who have not cultivated be able to compete for those scattered cultivations, this is not fair! ”
The long-crowned man laughed, "We immortal cultivators are fighting with heaven for our lives, and if there are so many fair things, if we really want to meet them, we can only think that we are unlucky." ”
At this time, the enthusiasm of the crowd has completely faded, and some people have secretly calculated whether to find a few more people to form a team, so that the number of people can greatly improve safety, but in this way, safety can be guaranteed, but the elixir may not be enough, which is really a dilemma.
Lu Shang was also secretly thinking about this problem, with what he had learned, it should not be difficult to find herbs, but how not to be robbed by others was a difficult problem, was it really necessary to ally with people?
For a while, everyone was thinking about the problem in their hearts, but the scene fell silent, and the long-crowned man no longer spoke, and looked at everyone with a good attitude, it seemed that it was his hobby to base his happiness on the pain of others.
