"Senior! Can I also take you as my master?"
"Or let me stay by Wan 'er's side. I won't affect her cultivation.”
Li Jingye was worried about his little sister following Elder Qian alone, so he couldn't help but ask tactfully.
Elder Qian frowned and wanted to reject Li Jingye directly.
However, he was also worried that Li Qiuwan would end up dying because of her reliance on Li Jingye.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, he took out a crystal ball the size of a human head.
He placed the crystal ball on the ground and said to Li Jingye,""Place your hand on the crystal ball. This can test whether you have a spiritual root and whether you have the talent for cultivation.”
As soon as Elder Qian finished speaking, Li Jingye had already stepped forward and placed his hand on the crystal ball.
However, the crystal ball seemed extremely calm and did not move at all.
This made Li Jingye's heart skip a beat. He already had a bad guess.
At this moment, the crystal ball suddenly emitted a five-colored light.
The light was so blinding that Li Jingye could not help but let go and retreat in shock.
As his hand left the crystal ball, the dazzling five-colored light dimmed and disappeared.
"Senior! Do I have the talent to cultivate?"
Li Jingye, who had just regained his senses, couldn't help but ask Elder Qian excitedly.
"Yes!"
Elder Qian's answer made Li Jingye overjoyed.
However, before he could get over his joy, Elder Qian's next sentence stunned him on the spot.
"You have mixed spirit roots of the five elements, and your aptitude is the worst among all Xiuxianists.”
"Your affinity with the five elements is comparable to top-grade talent, but even with such perfect talent, it's not as good as a random trash with five elements mixed spirit roots.”
"It can be said that your spirit root is the worst among all the spirit roots I know.”
Elder Qian's words were like a bucket of cold water that had been poured on Li Jingye.
"Senior, Senior! Is my aptitude really that bad?"
After a moment of silence, Li Jingye asked, unwilling to give up.
"Humph! Since you're Qiu Wan's big brother, I'll give you some basic knowledge about the cultivation world.”
Seeing that Li Jingye was still not giving up, Elder Qian snorted coldly and began to explain in detail.
Only then did Li Jingye learn that spiritual roots were divided into metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, lightning, and other attributes.
The more attributes a spirit root had, the better it was. On the contrary, a single attribute spirit root was more beneficial to the cultivation of immortal cultivators.
The worst spirit root was called mixed spirit root, also known as pseudo spirit root. It had four or five attributes, which were very mixed and not abundant. The spiritual roots of each attribute were incomplete, so the cultivation speed was extremely slow.
The better spiritual roots were called true spiritual roots. It had two or three types of spirit root attributes, and each type of spirit root was relatively abundant, so the cultivation speed was also relatively fast.
A single attribute Spirit Root was the Heaven Spirit Root: It was a single attribute spiritual root. The spiritual root was abundant, and the cultivation speed was several times faster than ordinary spiritual roots.
There was also a type of mutated spiritual root: It was a spiritual root that had evolved and sublimated from two or three elements. It had lightning, ice, darkness, wind, and other elements. Its cultivation speed was no less than a heavenly spiritual root.
Not only did Li Qiuwan have Heaven Spiritual Root, but she also had a mutated Heaven Spiritual Root. She only had a single attribute, the Ice Element.
This was the most precious treasure among all the treasures of cultivation. Li Jingye was both happy for her and worried about her.
His little sister, Li Qiuwan, was destined to walk the path of cultivation. He was worried that he would not be able to keep up and would instead drag his little sister down.
From Elder Qian's explanation, Li Jingye understood that his Five Elements Spirit Roots were different from ordinary miscellaneous Spirit Roots.
Generally, miscellaneous spirit roots had their own specializations. For example, someone's miscellaneous spirit root had a relatively abundant fire attribute.
Then, he would be able to cultivate the fire attribute as his main attribute and would not need to cultivate the other attributes to perfection.
On the other hand, Li Jingye had abundant Spiritual Roots of all five elements. It would be difficult for him to advance if he did not cultivate all of them to perfection.
Ordinary mixed spiritual roots would absorb four or five types of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the same attribute every time they cultivated.
This caused them to spend a lot of time in their cultivation to remove the unnecessary spiritual qi and focus on one attribute.
This was also the reason why their cultivation was not only like a turtle crawling, but they also needed to consume a huge amount of resources to successfully advance.
"Big Brother Jingye! I also want to test my aptitude!"
Just as Li Jingye fell into silence and carefully digested the information he had obtained from Elder Qian…
Little Fatty Wang dragged his wounded body over and begged Li Jingye.
He didn't dare to touch the crystal ball because he was afraid of Elder Qian's Immortal status.
Li Jingye quickly helped Wang Xiaopang up and glanced at Elder Qian.
"Humph!"
Elder Qian snorted coldly, but he had no intention of stopping him.
Li Jingye understood and quickly helped Wang Xiaopang to the crystal ball.
Although Wang Xiaopang's injuries weren't light, most of them were superficial wounds that weren't fatal.
He placed his palm on the crystal ball with a fervent expression. Soon, the crystal ball emitted a faint four-colored light.
It was obvious that he also had mixed spiritual roots of four attributes. It could be said that he was only slightly better than Li Jingye.
"Plop!"
With a plop, Wang Xiaopang suddenly knelt on the ground and burst into tears.
"Little Fatty! This spiritual root is destined. We can't change it. Don't be too sad.”
Li Jingye squatted down and comforted Wang Xiaopang.
"No, I can't! Big Brother Jingye! I'm so happy!"
"I actually have spiritual roots. I can become an immortal!"
Little Fatty Wang's excited voice came out of his mouth, causing Li Jingye to be stunned.
That's right! The spectators see more clearly than those involved!
The threshold of the spirit root blocked the dreams of many mortals to become immortals.
He was already very lucky to have spiritual roots and be able to spy on the sect.
So what if his spirit root was inferior? He believed that as long as he worked hard, he could still catch up to others.
At the very least, he was not fighting alone. The stone pagoda phantom in between his eyebrows gave Li Jingye some confidence.
"Senior! Little Fatty and I both have spiritual roots, can we take you as our master?”
In the end, Li Jingye bowed respectfully to Elder Qian, wanting to acknowledge him as his master.
However, Elder Qian shook his head and refused without hesitation,"The two of you are too lacking in talent. I don't like you.”
He paused and glanced at the anxious Li Qiuwan before relenting,"However, I can give each of you a recommendation token. You can go to the sect and join it later.”
As Elder Qian finished speaking, a black stone and two tokens landed in Li Jingye's hands.
"Little girl! I've already done my best for your brother!”
"As long as you cultivate well, you'll have plenty of time to see him in the future.”
"You don't want to become a burden to him, do you? Didn't she want to protect him when she succeeded in her cultivation?”
Elder Qian's words struck Li Qiuwan's heart, causing her to swallow her words of rejection.
After a long silence, Li Qiuwan finally stepped forward and kowtowed respectfully to Elder Qian, officially becoming his disciple.
