Mortal Cultivation: Beginning with a Monkey Falling from the Sky

Chapter 3 Testing Spiritual Roots, Discovering Heavenly Spiritual Roots

The white light emitted from the flying sword enveloped Jiuchen and the woman and flew towards the sky.

The cautious Jiuchen saw the woman's back turned to him, and he couldn't help but subconsciously asked: "Gu Jiuchen, do you dare to ask the fairy her name?"

"You can just call me Senior Sister Mu!"

After saying these words, the fairy surnamed Mu made a seal with her right hand, and immediately her flying sword rose into the sky.

Gu Jiuchen almost lost his balance, stumbled and dropped the flying sword. In shock, he quickly stabilized his body, squatted down, and hugged the flying sword tightly with both hands, not daring to relax at all.

After he calmed down, Gu Jiuchen couldn't help but raise his eyes and look down. The scenery was unobstructed, and he was very excited for a while.

As the strong wind roared by and hit his face, Gu Jiuchen didn't feel any pain at all. He was so excited that he stretched out a hand and scratched in the air.

This situation makes Gu Jiuchen's belief in cultivating immortals more and more firm, and at the same time, he can't help but look forward to the Shangxian Sect that he is about to reach.

One day, I will be like Senior Sister Mu, wielding a sword in the air and traveling between heaven and earth.

Gu Jiuchen secretly made up his mind.

Soon after, Feijian arrived at a huge mountain peak. Looking around, Gu Jiuchen, who had never seen the world, was shocked.

On both sides of the huge mountain peak, there are several towering peaks guarding it. They are separated by Tianyuan Peak and pass through it. Tianyuan Peak lives up to its name.

Senior Sister Mu beside her didn't even glance at the scenery in front of her. She seemed to be accustomed to it. She landed directly on the huge square without pausing at all.

Gu Jiuchen couldn't help but look curiously. There were no less than a thousand people standing in the huge square. In the center of the square, a stone tablet of a hundred feet was erected. Several large characters were engraved vigorously on the stone tablet.

"Shangxian Sect!"

Under the stone tablet, there was a line of small words. Gu Jiuchen just glanced at these small words and felt a roar in his brain. His legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Just at this moment, Senior Sister Mu glanced at him and realized something was wrong. She quickly reached out and patted his back, which made Gu Jiuchen's brain recover a little.

As if grasping a life-saving straw, Gu Jiuchen quickly grabbed Senior Sister Mu's slender hand, not daring to let go at all.

However, just after this action was completed, before Gu Jiuchen could react, he heard a cold and angry man yelling loudly: "Smelly beggar, let go of your dirty hands!"

Gu Jiuchen felt the delicate jade hand in his hand slip and pull away.

Senior Sister Mu's expression was even colder. She waved her sleeves with warmth and anger towards an old man in blue robes, cupped her fists and saluted, and said respectfully: "Elder Qi, the person who ignited the Ascension Token has been found."

Hearing this voice, the old man looked calm and unfazed. He just gave a gentle hum and said nothing.

When the cold and aloof Senior Sister Mu saw this, she immediately resigned, stepped on her sword and rushed into the sky, disappearing without a trace.

Gu Jiuchen, who was in the square, reacted belatedly and looked around with an embarrassed expression.

There were no less than a thousand young people and girls standing in neat rows in the square. The oldest among them was about ten years old, and the youngest was only seven or eight years old.

In front of the crowd, stood several young monks, all of whom were impressive and sharp, all wearing blue robes. They should undoubtedly be members of the Shangxian Sect.

In the middle position, there is a chair, and sitting on it is an old man wearing a blue robe and having an immortal spirit.

Visually, this man has a calm expression, his eyes are slightly closed, and he looks ordinary, like a fisherman.

However, Gu Jiuchen would not really regard him as an ordinary old man. His status could be seen just from the position in the scene, and his status was definitely quite noble.

The man in green robes beside the old man was the one who had just scolded him.

Looking at this person, he has a handsome face and a handsome figure. His green clothes are fluttering down, and he looks elegant. However, his cold eyes, with a trace of sinister look, are staring at Gu Jiuchen coldly.

Although Gu Jiuchen was a little confused when he saw this, he also knew that this person's identity was not simple.

He had no intention of making enemies. He just glanced at him casually, and after remembering him, he walked towards the distance, followed the example of others lining up, and stood directly at the end.

It's just that he was dressed in tattered black clothes and had an unpleasant fishy smell, which attracted others' disgusted looks.

Gu Jiuchen didn't care about this. He didn't come here to compare, but to cultivate immortality.

Worth it.

A deep and powerful voice sounded in the square.

"quiet!"

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy square suddenly became quiet.

"The time has come. The Shangxian Sect's disciple recruitment conference has begun. Next is the test of the spiritual roots. Everyone lines up to step forward for the test."

When the disciple in green robe finished speaking, everyone who had already lined up in formation suddenly became ecstatic.

I saw a young man who was first in line walking towards the stone tablet with a worried and nervous expression.

The young man came to the stone tablet and put his hand on the stone tablet.

As a burst of light circulated, just a moment later, a three-color light pillar of yellow, red, and blue appeared.

Seeing this admiration, the disciple in green robe said expressionlessly: "Three-line spiritual roots, qualified, go and stand over there!"

After saying this, he pointed to the other side. The young man was overjoyed when he heard the words. He quickly clasped his fists in thanks and walked towards the open space.

As everyone tested and saw the boys and girls who were brushed off one by one, and the sad looks on their faces, Gu Jiuchen began to feel nervous.

He did not expect that if he wanted to become an immortal, he would also need spiritual roots. If he did not have spiritual roots, even if he was brought up the mountain with the Immortal Ascension Token, he would be destined to miss the opportunity to become an immortal.

Thinking of this, he became more and more nervous, and dense beads of sweat fell to the ground on his forehead.

So he nervously asked a young man in front of him: "Senior brother, you are so polite. May I ask what is going on with this spiritual root?"

Hearing Gu Jiuchen's words, the young man in front turned his head and glanced at him in surprise, looked at Gu Jiuchen with some disdain and said: "Where is this wild boy who doesn't even know the importance of spiritual roots and wants to join the Immortal Sect! "

"Senior brother has great magical powers and extraordinary heroic spirit. He must have the supreme immortal talent. Please give me some advice!"

As soon as this flattery came out, the young man who heard it felt secretly happy. As soon as he flattered him, he flew into the sky and said in a condescending tone: "We ordinary people who want to cultivate immortality must have spiritual roots. But there are countless mortals in this world, but there are only a handful of people with spiritual roots. It’s not an exaggeration to say that there are only one in a million.”

"And spiritual roots are divided into five elements spiritual roots, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and mutant spiritual roots such as wind and thunder."

"Spiritual roots also have strengths and weaknesses. For example, single-line spiritual roots are also called heavenly spiritual roots. These heaven-defying spiritual roots are extremely sensitive to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and their cultivation speed will be several times that of ordinary spiritual roots."

This started the conversation, and the young man started talking non-stop.

After a long time, Gu Jiuchen was horrified to hear about some of the deeds in the world of immortality, and he was no longer so ignorant.

In the field, several hours have passed since the test, and most of the thousands of disciples have already tested it. Most of them have no spiritual roots, and a few have miscellaneous spiritual roots.

According to the requirements of the Shangxian Sect, if you want to stay in the Immortal Sect, you must at least have spiritual roots.

But according to the current situation, there are only a dozen disciples with spiritual roots in the field. From this, we can also see how cruel this introduction to immortality is.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuchen became even more nervous.

After all, this spiritual root is related to whether he can embark on the path of cultivating immortality, and there is no room for sloppiness.

Just at this moment, a pillar of light suddenly shot up from the stone tablet, like a storm, piercing the sky and shining in all directions.

It immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Upon closer inspection, the youngest girl in front of the stone monument, about seven or eight years old, put her hand on the stone monument nervously.

It attracted a huge reaction from the stone tablet.

Seeing this situation, the disciple in green robe was stunned and even forgot to announce the result for a moment.

The old man in the center, who was sitting on a chair to relax, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, his eyes full of shock and ecstasy.

At the same time, there were waves of surprise in the field, and then there were sounds.

"Oh my God, it's actually the rumored Tianling Root?"

"A peerless evildoer. This kind of evildoer only appears once in a thousand years!"

"Such an evildoer can also appear. Looking at the color, it should be a single water spiritual root!"

For a time, there were endless sounds of shock, causing the originally silent scene to once again start a violent commotion.

Even the nervous Gu Jiuchen was shocked speechless by the exclamations around him, and the tension in his heart also disappeared.

No one thought that a mere seven or eight-year-old girl could actually be the rumored Tianlinggen. Such a talent was truly worthy of the word monster.

Just at this moment, an old man suddenly appeared in front of the little girl and asked with a kind face: "Little boy, don't be afraid. I am the elder of the Shangxian Sect. What is your name?"

"I...my name is Ye Linglong!"

The girl's nervous crunch sounded.

"Yes, yes, your qualifications are very suitable for my family. May I ask Ye Wazi, would you like to join my family?"

Seeing this, before the girl could reply, a voice came from a distance: "Wait a minute!"

After hearing this, everyone quickly raised their heads and looked towards the voice curiously.

I saw a sudden shock in the sky, and in an instant, a middle-aged monk, wearing a brocade robe and an immortal style, looked majestic and majestic.

Then the middle-aged monk stood in front of the girl Ye Linglong, looked up and down, and nodded happily.

At the same time, the group of blue-robed disciples and the old man cupped their fists and bowed: "See the master!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. No one expected that a Tianlinggen disciple would actually attract the master to come in person.

Immediately, there was a burst of discussion and the scene became noisy.

"Ye Wawa, are you willing to become my teacher?"

As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, the old man next to him suddenly looked helpless. The real leader had taken action, and his hope of accepting him as his disciple had been shattered.

"Master, please bow to me, my disciple!"

Ye Linglong could also see clearly that he was not a big man, but he was quick-witted. Knowing that being able to worship the master was definitely the best choice, so she knelt down decisively.

Seeing this situation, the Master immediately showed a smile on his face and said gently: "Just wait aside. When the disciple recruitment meeting is over, I will take you back to the mountain."

After hearing this, Ye Linglong stood obediently not far away and calmed down.

With the emergence of Tianlinggen, the test attracted a wave of enthusiasm. The remaining disciples were all as if they had been beaten to death, wishing that they would be the next Tianlinggen.

At that time, he will be able to worship under a powerful master and become the object of everyone's envy.

However, after a long time, no more heaven-defying spiritual roots appeared, only some barely qualified disciples, and there were not many mortals left in the field who had not tested their spiritual roots.

The old man who presided over the test snorted with displeasure and closed his eyes again.

But at this moment, two strong beams of light lit up on the stone tablet again.

After the blue-robed disciple announced it, it was known that it was a genius with two spiritual roots. In front of mixed spiritual roots and three spiritual roots, this disciple with two spiritual roots was a genius second only to the heavenly spiritual roots.

The old man opened his eyes immediately and acted very quickly. He took the other party into his own lineage in a few moves, without even time for others to react.

Only then did he smile with satisfaction.

Gu Jiuchen only remembered the name of this second-system spiritual root genius, knowing that it was Lin Tianjin. As for his appearance, he didn't have time to see it clearly, and was taken away by the old man.

Next.

"Fire, water, and earth are three spiritual roots, passed!"

"Gold, fire, wood, and earth are four spiritual roots, passed!"

"Water, wood, fire, and earth are four spiritual roots, passed!"

...

After the boy in front of Gu Jiuchen finished the test, he was the only one left, becoming the last one.

Gu Jiuchen walked towards the stone tablet nervously, his body trembling, this was a test that would determine his fate!

Although Gu Jiuchen was brought here by the immortal token, if he didn't have spiritual roots, he would still be driven down the mountain.

Soon, he came to the stone tablet, and Gu Jiuchen put his hand on it nervously, and immediately saw two huge light pillars rising from the stone tablet. The momentum was so huge that it was not inferior to that of the girl Ye Linglong, and even surpassed her.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuchen was petrified on the spot...
