I am a mortal, a disciple of Spirit Beast Mountain

Chapter 2 Spirit Root Test
On the second day, the sky was just getting bright, and Jiang Yun couldn't wait to get up to freshen up. Perhaps it was a special day, and the footsteps of the servants in the courtyard were much more hurried than usual.

"Aunt Mei, I remember that my mother left the customs the day before yesterday. Why didn't I see her? Won't she accompany me to the spiritual root test today?" Jiang Yun, who was eating breakfast, asked the housekeeper standing beside her.

Aunt Mei is the housekeeper. According to her mother, Aunt Mei has been her maid since she was a child, and later came to the Jiang family together as a dowry.

"Master, the mistress told you to go directly to the Lingtai, and you will know when you get there." The housekeeper replied meticulously.

"Mother is always like this, only half-talking." Jiang Yun thought to himself.

After breakfast, he went out with the housekeeper.Along the way, I met many parents with children walking in one direction.

After hundreds of years of development, the Qingyujiang family has a population of hundreds of thousands.

But most of the tribe can only live in a dozen small towns and hundreds of villages around Qingyu Mountain. Only immortal cultivators and their descendants within three generations can live in the tribe.

Even in such a place, there are thousands of Jiang family members.Today, children who have reached the age of 5 in the tribe will take the test.As for the children in the surrounding villages and towns, it is said that there will be family cultivators going to the villages and towns for testing.

Soon Jiang Yun arrived at a wide field.Looking around, there are about seventy or eighty children.Under the guidance of the waiter, the children stand together.The parents walked to the side.

Ignoring the chattering children of the same age nearby, Jiang Yun began to look around and found a round stone platform ten meters in front of him, on which three balls the size of an adult's fist were floating in the air.

"This should be the spirit-testing bead mentioned in the book. According to the book, this item is very valuable, and the value of one piece is comparable to a top-grade magic weapon. Only the cultivation family and the cultivation sect will always have this object." Jiang Yun thought to himself. road.

"Hum~~~" At this moment, a strange voice came from far and near.

The children looked towards the place where the sound came from, and a huge dark green strange snake flew from a distance, and then flew over the children, blocking the sunlight and forming a large shadow.

The children exclaimed loudly, and there were quite a few crying. Jiang Yun also saw a child next to him who did not respond, but after careful observation, he found that his eyes were dull and his pants were wet.

The giant snake slowly landed on the open space next to the measuring Lingzhu, and Jiang Yun obviously felt the ground tremble slightly when the huge figure landed.

Jiang Yun observed carefully and visually determined that the thickest part of the snake's body was nearly two meters in diameter and more than 40 meters in length.

There are a pair of claws on the front part of the body, a silver horn on the head, and eyes. Jiang Yun found that the eyes of the strange snake seemed to be smiling.

Just when Jiang Yun had mixed feelings in his heart.Two men and two women, a total of four people in Taoist robes jumped off the giant snake, and then slowly fell to the ground.

One of them, a middle-aged man in a dark Taoist robe, walked up to the front of the four with his left hand behind his back, and said loudly:
"Everyone, it's time for the spiritual root test once a year again. Old man Jiang Shanyuan is the head of the Jiang family. Most of the people present should know this old man. Now start the spiritual root test directly."

The last sentence was addressed to the three monks behind.

"Of order." The three people behind Patriarch Jiang responded quickly.It was only then that Jiang Yun discovered that one of them was his mother, but she was wearing a veil, and because she had been focusing on the giant snake just now, she didn't notice it immediately.

The three of them walked to a measuring spirit bead each, and made a gesture with both hands. After a while, the measuring spirit bead glowed with a faint white light, and then waved the measuring spirit bead with one hand and flew to a height of two meters and then stopped.

At this time, Patriarch Jiang continued:
"Everyone stands in three rows and tests one by one. Stand under the spirit test beads. Don't be afraid or nervous."

The children quickly stood in three rows, and Jiang Yun naturally stood in the mother's row.

I also saw my mother winking at me playfully.Jiang Yun looked indifferent and ignored her.

A boy stood under the measuring spirit bead, and the mother waved one hand, and the spirit bead released a burst of white light on the boy, but the bead did not respond.

Mother shook her head and shouted, "The next one."

The boy walked aside with a little face that was about to cry.When I walked to my parents, I finally couldn't help crying.The whole family was very disappointed.

After a while, there was a commotion from the crowd. Jiang Yun saw a little girl with a red-green glow from the pearl on her head.

"Fire and wood dual spiritual roots, excellent aptitude!" The immortal cultivator next to him said loudly, with a little excitement in his voice.

Patriarch Jiang was very happy.Quickly said: "Okay! Little girl, come and stand next to me!"

He remembered that in the test last year, only more than 20 children in the clan area and surrounding towns were tested to have spiritual roots, and more than half of them were tested in the clan area.

Because if one of the parents is a monk, then the probability of the child having spiritual roots is [-]%, and if both parents are monks, then the probability of the child having spiritual roots is [-]%.

But last year, among the more than 20 children, there were only a few with the best qualifications.As soon as this year came up, a double spiritual root was detected. It seems that this year's luck is very good.

The little girl happily ran to the patriarch.All smiles.A couple outside the venue wept with joy.It should be the parents of the little girl.

After that, more than half of the people lined up, and another three-spiritual root and five four-spiritual roots appeared.

According to the description in the book, the quality of a spiritual root is determined by the number of attributes of the spiritual root. The common attributes are the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The one with a single attribute is the Tianlinggen, which has the best talent, followed by the double-spiritual roots with two attributes, then the three-spiritual roots, the four-spiritual roots, and the worst is the five-spiritual roots, which have all five elements and can use spells of the five elements, but The speed of cultivation is very slow.Its cultivation speed may not even be one tenth of that of Tianlinggen.

In addition, there are some mutant spiritual roots, such as: ice root, thunder root, dark root, wind root and so on.

The cultivation speed of mutant spiritual roots is second only to that of heavenly spiritual roots, and the power of cultivation techniques and spells with corresponding attributes is astonishing.

Jiang Yun was thinking in his mind, and after a while, it was Jiang Yun's turn.The mother gave Jiang Yun a cheering look, waved her hand, and under a white light, three, four, and finally five colors of the Lingzhu emerged.

"Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and five spiritual roots are qualified." The mother sighed insignificantly when she saw the five colors, and then said loudly.

Jiang Yun's expression was strange when he saw that it was Wulinggen. He didn't know whether it was sad or happy.

Because of the vague memory, the mortal's setting is whether the five-attribute spiritual roots will help break through the stage of transforming gods or the stage of refining emptiness.Can't remember the exact reason.However, it is too far to consider these now, because the cultivation speed of Wulinggen was very slow in the early stage.

The realm of cultivating immortals is divided into Qi training period, foundation building period, alchemy formation period, Yuanying period and spirit transformation period.The higher the cultivation level, the longer the lifespan, and if there is no special opportunity for the five spirit root monks, they can basically only stop at the Qi training period, and eventually their lifespan reaches recoil.

But Jiang Yun understands that aptitude is only a part of cultivating immortals, he will not complain, he will only forge ahead.

Seeing his mother's slightly worried eyes, Jiang Yun smiled heartily at his mother, and then stood beside the patriarch with the children who had detected their spiritual roots before.There was no trace of sadness on his face.

Seeing this, my mother was a little relieved.Turn your head to continue testing.

Seeing Jiang Yun's performance, the patriarch nodded slightly.

　I hope you can read Chapter 15 patiently.At that time, we can almost understand the characteristics of this book.
