Chapter 45 Measuring Spiritual Roots
A few months later.
The peaceful time passed by like a fleeting moment. In the blink of an eye, several months passed. It has been two years since Wang Youcheng came to Maplewood Island.
During this period of time, Wang Youcheng continued to practice as usual, improving his state of mind and completely consolidating his sixth level of Qi training.
Although due to the medicinal bath, the main channels of the body are opened, the current cultivation speed has caught up with the speed of the fifth level of Qi training at the ninth level.
However, the improvement of the realm must be accompanied by the state of mind. It is not just hard practice that will definitely lead to the improvement of the realm.
Just like Wang Youcheng, when he was at the fifth level of Qi training, no matter how much he retreated or how hard he sprinted, he could never break through.
Wang Youcheng's next step is to launch a sprint to the seventh level of Qi training, which is the breakthrough from the middle to the late Qi training stage. It is more difficult than the breakthrough of the small realm.
This time, he was naturally more cautious and made sure every step was taken. There was no Sutra Pavilion here and there was no experience to learn from, but there was nothing wrong with being steady and steady.
Today is a big event on Maple Forest Island. The monks from Liuli Island who are responsible for testing the spiritual roots will come here to test the spiritual roots of children over six years old.
For Wang Youcheng, it was not a big deal. When he tested his spiritual roots for the first time, he was in seclusion and did not even have any family monks.
But for the mortals of the Wang family who live on the island, this may be a more important event than the Chinese New Year, so they are naturally very cautious about it.
This time, Wang Youcheng polished his state of mind and practiced more casually. He did not retreat. It was necessary to receive the family monks who tested the spiritual roots.
I saw a table and a coffee table in the courtyard, with four monks sitting next to them. One of them was Wang Youcheng, and the remaining three were family monks responsible for measuring spiritual roots.
"Grandpa Thirteen, you have worked hard for the annual spirit testing conference, traveling between islands for everyone." Wang Youcheng raised the teacup in his hand and gestured to Wang Xianfeng.
Wang Xianfeng, the thirteenth descendant of the Wang family, has a 40% metal talent and is an eighth-level Qi practitioner. He is relatively easy-going, but he has a hobby, which is food.
"It's not hard, it's not hard. It's my duty to work for the family. I can also eat and drink everywhere. It's a nice job and I like it better."
Wang Xianfeng waved his hand, smiled, and said pointedly, his rich body, the bulge in the middle of his belly, and his robe could not cover it.
Wang Youcheng immediately understood that Wang Xianfeng wanted to ask him for Maple Forest Fish, and it was just a small matter.
When Wang Youcheng was tested as a spiritual root monk, it was Wang Xianfeng who took him to Liuli Island and taught Wang Youcheng a lot about the common sense of the world of immortality.
In this regard, many younger monks in the family remember Wang Xianfeng. He is easy-going and very patient in teaching.
The most important thing is that at that time, everyone had an extreme lack of knowledge about cultivating immortals. He never refused and never put on airs. Everyone still remembers him.
"Grandpa Thirteen, there are many ways to make maple fish. Today, I will let you try a different way of grilling maple fish. Grandpa Fifth and Uncle Ninth both like it very much."
Wang Youcheng followed Wang Xianfeng's words and told him his skill in grilling maple fish. Wang Xianfeng's eyes lit up and his mouth watered. Fortunately, the monk next to him reminded him and he didn't stay.
"Xiao Liu, don't tempt me and make me almost make a fool of myself. Go do your business first and come and taste your barbecued maple fish later.
I didn’t eat it the first time I came here, so I asked Fifth Brother and Shanyong to taste it first. No, it’s not good. You can bake more for me later and I’ll eat enough. "
Although Wang Xianfeng was greedy for delicious food, he knew which was lighter and which was heavier. Family matters always came first, so he went to measure the spiritual roots first.
Not a moment.
In the area where the mortals of the Wang family live, there is a specially set up spiritual detection platform. The area for two miles around is bare.
In the middle, there is a spirit-detection platform that is four to five meters high and covers an area of 40 to 50 square meters. There are steps to go up next to it, which are used for queuing up children who need to have their spirit roots tested.
At this time, people were standing around the entire spirit-detecting platform, and there were many children lined up on the steps. The long queue was like a dragon, bending and folding.
"Dear immortal masters, there are a total of 34,322 people on Maple Forest Island. This year, there are 931 children over the age of six. They are already lining up below, asking the immortal master to help test their spiritual roots."
Wang Feng saw Wang Youcheng and others coming, and quickly brought Wang Lin and others forward to pay homage and explain the situation on Maple Forest Island.
"Then let's get started."
Wang Xianfeng waved his hand and signaled the Wang family monks behind him to start measuring the spiritual roots of these children. Then the two monks took out the spiritual measuring rulers.
"The first one, Wang Yue."
As the monk from the Wang family took the registered name and began to read it, a fragile little girl walked towards the soul-detecting platform nervously with her hands clenched.
"Don't be nervous, just hold this ruler with both hands."
There was no movement from the ruler. The Wang family monk was not surprised that there were too many mortals without spiritual roots, so he motioned for her to go down another step.
"Next, Kingdom."
........
Neither Wang Youcheng nor Wang Xianfeng left, and they were watching from the sidelines. Two to three hundred people passed by in a row, but there was not a single monk.
Looking at the disappointed expressions on everyone's face, Wang Youcheng recalled that when he was testing spirits, the children couldn't find out, which was quite disappointing.
Suddenly, there was movement on the spiritual measuring ruler. The yellow light only reached the two-minute mark, the red light reached the three-minute mark, and the green light reached the five-minute mark.
There are a total of eight colors on the spirit measuring ruler, representing the eight attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder and ice. There is a ten-point scale under each color to see what qualifications are achieved.
"Wang Wen, three spiritual roots, five points of wood attribute qualifications."
The monk from the Wang family shouted excitedly. His voice became louder and clearer, so that almost everyone present could hear it. Everyone also became excited, as if they had detected their spiritual roots.
Even Wang Youcheng and Wang Xianfeng were surprised. This was a five-point qualification, although in a large sect or big family, this might not be anything.
But for the Wang family, this qualification is pretty good. Wang Xianfeng and Wang Youcheng both have four-point qualifications, but they are not as good as this kid named Wang Wen.
"It's not bad. When I came here last time, I didn't detect any of them. This time, I have one. It's still a five-point qualification. It may not be foundation building, but it should be fine in the later stages of Qi training."
Wang Xianfeng said happily that as long as he is well cultivated, he will be the backbone of the family.
The usual ratio is one in a thousand. Last time there were nearly a thousand children, but there was no one. It was not too surprising, but this time there was one.
