Chapter 499 Senior, are our aptitudes really that bad?
"I'll do it, I'm not afraid."
After he finished speaking, Wen Chengbin followed suit, placing his palm on the spirit-testing plate, and his spiritual energy immediately began to circulate.
A wisp of spiritual energy triggered the spirit-testing disc, and immediately, the disc lit up with beams of light in four colors.
"The spiritual roots are of the four elements: metal, wood, fire, and earth. The purity of the spiritual roots is moderate, with the wood spiritual root being the worst."
At this moment, Master Huida looked at Wenwen. Judging from the test results of the two boys, he estimated that the last one wouldn't do much better, and he had already given up hope.
Master Huida waved his hand at Wenwen and said helplessly, "It's your turn. Come on, let's see if you're any good!"
These words!
Wenwen immediately shrank back. She was actually a little nervous. Although she knew she wasn't a genius, she was, after all, the female lead with a halo above her head. Her aptitude shouldn't be too bad, right?
She went all out, pressing her palm firmly against the spirit-testing plate with a loud clang.
"Hey, you..."
Master Huida sighed, "It's just a test, there's no need to go to such lengths!"
"Hehehe, I'm a little nervous, my hands are clumsy."
Wenwen withdrew her hand, wiped the sweat from her palm, placed it back on the table, and circulated her spiritual energy.
The spirit-testing disc was triggered by spiritual power, and then four colored beams of light lit up. The brightness of these colors varied, and they were neither bright nor dim.
After waiting for a while, sure enough, another color appeared. This color was so faint that it was barely noticeable, and so bright that it was barely noticeable either. You could say it wasn't there, but there was a hint of it. You could also say how much there was, but there wasn't much at all. It was infuriating!
"The five elements of spiritual roots—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—have varying degrees of purity, decreasing in a step-like manner."
At this point, Master Huida couldn't help but unleash his sarcastic remarks again.
"Look at you, your brothers at least have four spiritual roots, how come you only have one more than them? If you have more, at least increase the purity of your spiritual roots, but not only do you not increase them, they're actually decreasing!"
"With your talent, you'd be marginalized sooner or later in a major sect. This is outrageous! It infuriates me!"
As Wenwen watched Master Huida's face change from red to black and then back to red, she suddenly began to understand the master's emotions.
Logically speaking, they were just strangers who met by chance, and after leaving this door, they would go their separate ways. So why did she see a look of disappointment and frustration in the master's eyes? It was completely inexplicable. Was this another twist of fate? Just when she encountered a bottleneck in her cultivation, heaven sent her another master to offer guidance?
Who knows? Just go with your gut feeling!
Wenwen quietly took out another can of cola. "Senior, have a sip to calm your nerves!"
"You know, this is a shock? You're really disappointing."
Master Huida tilted his head back and took a big gulp, then burped before continuing, "Speaking of which, how did you two brothers, with such poor physiques, reach the sixth level of Qi Refining? And you, with such poor five spiritual roots, how did you actually reach the late stage of Qi Refining?"
The first half of the sentence was directed at Wen Chengjian and Wen Chengbin, while the second half was definitely directed at Wen Wen.
"Senior, are our aptitudes really that bad?" Wen Chengjian asked.
"Actually, to be honest, it's not that bad."
Master Huida said tactfully, "It's just that compared to having a single or dual spiritual root, it's far inferior..."
Next, Master Huida explained to the siblings the classification of spiritual roots in the Immortal Realm, as well as the allocation of spiritual root testing and cultivation factions within some major sects and families.
With the master's explanation, it became much more intuitive and clear than what they learned from books.
"Senior, after hearing what you said, I feel like I'm not bad at all," Wen Chengbin said confidently.
"Second Brother's feeling is right, and I think I'm just as good!" Wenwen was also very confident.
This truly proves the old saying: ignorance is bliss!
When they first started cultivating, they didn't know the state of their spiritual roots, let alone whether their spiritual roots were pure or not. Because they didn't know, they had no worries, no anxieties, and no internal conflicts. They just relied on their spirit and forged ahead. As a result, everyone in their family made progress.
Imagine if someone told you that you couldn't do it, that it was too difficult, that the hope was slim, that they poured cold water on you before you even started, and that they extinguished the flame of hope as soon as it was lit. Would you still have the will to forge ahead?
People with weak willpower will be influenced to some extent.
Now they are even more grateful for their past ignorance and lack of understanding.
One could say that their past ignorance and recklessness have shaped them into who they are today.
“Logically speaking, with your physiques, it would be very difficult for you to cross the sixth level of Qi Refining unless you consume a lot of rare and precious herbs or encounter a great opportunity. Otherwise, it is hard to explain this phenomenon!” Master Huida said.
The siblings looked at each other in disbelief. The master had indeed guessed correctly; their breakthrough was thanks to the opportunity at the Dragon Gate!
Wenwen naturally wouldn't reveal the details of the space, but there were some things she still wanted to verify, so she changed the subject.
"Senior, we've heard that the Miraculous Spirit Replenishing Pill can improve the purity of spiritual roots. Is that true?"
"Hey, remove that 'ma' character!"
Master Huida paused for a moment and then said, "Of course it's true. Back then, when I went on my travels..."
"Uh... those are all old stories, and I can't remember the specific details. However, it is said that those two key medicinal ingredients are hard to find, and they haven't appeared even in the Yuanling Continent for many years!"
Upon hearing this, Wenwen pondered for a few moments, "Senior, please take a look, is this it?"
As she finished speaking, two spiritual herbs appeared in Wenwen's left hand and a pill bottle appeared in her right hand.
Master Huida's eyes immediately fell on the spiritual herbs. Upon seeing their appearance, his eyes widened instantly. He snatched the two herbs, examining them from left to right, up to down, his lips trembling, "Where did you find these?"
"This...this, you...you all..."
This was completely unexpected for him. Master Huida tilted his head back and gulped down a bottle of cola, then burped to calm his shock.
Oh my god! He couldn't share his excitement with anyone, nor could he let anyone know; it was so hard to keep it all bottled up inside.
However, the appearance of the spiritual herb gave him hope. In order to prevent Wenwen and the others from discovering it, Master Huida could only reluctantly put down the spiritual herb and pick up the pill bottle.
He opened the bottle and a familiar medicinal aroma wafted out. He poured the pill into his palm and examined it closely. The pill had the characteristic pill pattern of a Spirit-Replenishing Pill. He brought it closer and smelled the rich and mellow aroma. Good heavens, this is no ordinary Spirit-Replenishing Pill. This is a truly miraculous Spirit-Replenishing Pill!
Just how many more surprises could these dolls possibly hold for him?
In just a short while, these kids have made the old man very anxious. Isn't this just making things difficult for the old man?
Master Huida deliberately frowned and squinted at Wenwen and her two siblings.
Wenwen's heart skipped a beat!
