South Vietnam.
July, hot.
The huge sun was like a fireball, hanging over Lin'an County, emitting billowing heat waves that twisted the air.
However, under such a scorching sun, people in Lin'an County all gathered near a high platform.
Several figures in uniform clothes stand floating on the high platform, they are immortals in the eyes of mortals.
The Immortal is accepting disciples here today.
Once you are chosen by an immortal, you can become an immortal.
All parents who have children of school age at home do not want to miss this great opportunity to become immortals and send their children over for testing by immortals.
"The bone age is ten years old, the three spiritual roots of fire, earth and gold are qualified."
Following the immortal's loud announcement, a chubby little fat man walked onto the high platform with excitement on his face.
"Hey, isn't that Wang Yuanwai's youngest son? He is so lucky to be chosen by the immortal!"
The people who were watching eagerly started talking, and everyone told me the origin of the little fat man.
"quiet!"
Just as the crowd's chatter became louder and louder, a young man carrying a sword on the high platform scolded the audience with a serious face.
Suddenly, all the chatter in the audience disappeared and became silent.
The young man carrying the sword waved his hand and stopped looking at the crowd in the audience.
The test started again.
Among the crowd, there was a girl in a coarse linen skirt, with a face as pale as paper and as skinny as a little girl who could be blown down by a gust of wind. With determination in her eyes, she said to the man who was supporting her: "Dad, I want it too. Go test it!”
"Yuxiu, your body..."
There was a worried look on the man's face, and he wanted to say something, but when he saw the determination in his daughter's eyes, he couldn't help but choke up when he spoke.
There is no cure for her daughter's illness. The most prestigious doctor in the county said that there is no cure for her and she has only a few years to live. I am afraid that only the immortals can save his daughter.
If I miss this opportunity, my daughter may have to wait for death.
"Well, be careful yourself!"
The worried man gave a few more instructions before letting the little girl go alone.
Against the scorching sun in the sky, the little girl moved towards the high platform with difficult steps.
It was very difficult for her to walk just a dozen steps.
Sweat broke out on her forehead, and every step took almost all her strength, but she did not give up even then.
Her eyes were still firm and there was no wavering in her eyes.
Her name is Xu Yuxiu, and she comes from an ordinary background. Both her parents farm for Xu Yuan's family.
Because he cultivated the land well, he was fortunate enough to be rewarded by Yuanwai Xu and was given the surname Xu.
And she also took advantage of it, and was given a spiritual name, Yuxiu, when she was born.
Just when I thought the family's life was about to get better, Xu Yuxiu has been suffering from a strange disease since she was born, and her health has been deteriorating.
Even the most famous doctor in Lin'an County could not tell what kind of disease she had and said she had only a few years to live.
Xu Yuxiu has never seen her parents smile since she was sensible. Her father is busy in the fields every day, making money to buy medicine for her, and her mother has a sad face almost every day, and sometimes she secretly wipes her tears.
She saw all this.
She knew that it was all her fault, and she hated her illness. She wanted to live and didn't want her parents to be sad for her anymore, but she had no choice but to let the pain control her.
This time I was lucky enough to meet an immortal who took over as a disciple. I heard people say that immortals are omnipotent.
She thought to herself that even if she was not chosen by the immortal this time, she would still ask the immortal to cure her illness so that her parents would no longer be sad for her and could be happy.
With this thought, even the scorching sun above my head no longer seems so hot.
"Next!"
Following the immortal's announcement, Xu Yuxiu finally moved with difficulty to the immortal in charge of the test.
She also saw clearly the appearance of the fairy in charge of the test. She was a very beautiful fairy who looked like she had stepped out of a painting.
When the female cultivator responsible for detecting bone age saw Xu Yuxiu standing in front of her, a strange color flashed in her eyes.
"A person with spiritual roots is a rare martial arts prodigy even in the world, and his physical fitness is naturally excellent. The girl in front of me obviously does not have spiritual roots."
Although she thought so in her heart, the sect had its own rules, so she didn't say anything. She just said to the girl in an indifferent tone: "Stretch your hand over."
Xu Yuxiu didn't know what the female immortal in front of her was thinking, so she obediently stretched out her bare arms.
Then she saw the female immortal put her hand on her right wrist.
The next moment, she felt a warm current entering her body and swimming around her. The feeling almost made her feel very comfortable.
It was like the long-dried fields were moistened by sweet rain, and even her pale face turned slightly rosy.
However, before she could enjoy it any more, the warm current left her body.
Suddenly, a feeling of emptiness came over her, making her feel uncomfortable.
"The bone age is seven years old. He is qualified and can go for the spiritual root test."
The female cultivator's indifferent voice sounded again.
When Xu Yuxiu heard this, her heart was full of joy. Following the guidance of the female fairy, she walked towards the high platform she had dreamed of.
After ascending to the high platform, she looked at a tall stone monument.
"Just put your hand on the stone tablet."
Xu Yuxiu did not hesitate when he heard the words. He reached out and pressed his hand on the tall stone tablet according to the immortal's instructions.
Just as she put her hand on it, the stone tablet changed instantly.
The originally calm stone tablet suddenly lit up.
"It actually has spiritual roots!"
When the young man with the sword on his back saw the changes in the stone tablet, he couldn't help but show surprise in his eyes.
As early as when Xu Yuxiu came on stage, he was just like the female disciple who measured Xu Yuxiu's bone age. He felt that it was impossible for Xu Yuxiu to have spiritual roots with his appearance. Originally, he was just going to go through the motions.
"With this extremely sick look, even if he has spiritual roots, he wouldn't be able to do well..."
Just as the young man carrying the sword was thinking this secretly, the stone tablet changed again.
I saw that the light originally shining on the stone tablet began to split into two.
One red, one blue, like two swimming dragons flying upward along the stone tablet at extremely fast speeds.
"Double spiritual roots!"
The young man carrying the sword shrank his pupils. This was the first dual spiritual root in this test.
Not long after, when the two rays of light, one red and one blue, stayed behind the top of the stone tablet.
The young man carrying the sword finally showed a look of surprise.
"Perfect quality, both of her spiritual roots have actually reached perfect quality!"
Perhaps they noticed the changes on the high platform, and several other people who came with the young man carrying the sword also cast curious glances.
When they saw the changes on the spiritual monument on the high platform, they couldn't help but look shocked.
"Double spiritual roots, the quality is ninety-nine perfect!"
this....
For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Yuxiu.
Mortal mortals may not know what Xu Yuxiu's spiritual roots represent, but as monks, they know it very well.
Spiritual roots are divided into the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and there are spiritual roots with various mutated attributes, such as wind, thunder, ice, etc.
The Five Elements spiritual roots are the most common, and those with rare spiritual roots are the most precious.
The fewer spiritual roots, the higher the cultivation qualifications, and among these, there are specific spiritual root qualities. The higher the spiritual root quality, the better one is compared to other people with the same number of spiritual roots.
A person like Xu Yuxiu, who has two spiritual roots with a quality of nine feet and nine inches, is no better than a person with a single spiritual root. Once he enters the Taixuan Sect, he can become an inner disciple, and he may even be able to become a disciple. Under the disciple of Jin Dan Zhenren.
"Hey, that's not right!"
At this moment, an inappropriate voice sounded.
