Xiao Junhao touched the Nine Heavens Soul Jade with his hand, and felt a heat flow all over his body along his palm. He had no idea what was happening to him...
"This is...impossible. You are just a mortal. How could your soul be so strong..."
Elder Murong's eyes widened and he looked at the figure that appeared on Xiao Junhao's body in disbelief, with a look of shock.
The reason why Elder Murong was shocked was because, judging from the perspective of the world of cultivation, the soul strength of ordinary mortals is as weak as paper...
Therefore, after death of a mortal, after the soul leaves the body, it will be easily attracted or even driven by the magnetic field between heaven and earth, or man-made...
For cultivators, it's completely different. Cultivators strengthen their bodies and remove impurities through practice, and then condense their souls.
While a cultivator is condensing his soul, his mental power will also become stronger and stronger as the tide rises. Therefore, for a cultivator, his mental power and soul can be said to be one.
However, as a cultivator's soul condenses to a certain level or strength, it will be called a divine soul...
Once a cultivator condenses his soul, it means that his life will last longer, or there will be one more way to save his life.
At the same time, the soul also represents the cultivation and Taoism of the cultivator. The higher the cultivation level, the more solid the soul, and the Taoism will be unfathomable...
Of course, the divine soul also has a more specific form and realm. Even the lowest form of the divine soul among cultivators is not so easy to condense.
The figure that appeared on Xiao Junhao's body was about to enter the lowest form of the soul, and Xiao Junhao was still a mortal who had not practiced cultivation. How could this not shock Elder Murong?
"Grandpa, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Although Xiao Junhao couldn't see it and didn't know why Elder Murong suddenly lost his composure, his intuition told him that something must have happened to him...
Xiao Junhao secretly tried to sense the outside world, but to his regret, he sensed nothing this time. He felt that there was a mysterious force that affected his ability to perceive.
"Child, let me ask you, has anyone taught you any methods of cultivation? Well...for example, some methods of cultivating the soul."
Elder Murong calmed down his shocked emotions, looked at Xiao Junhao, thought for a while and asked.
"How to practice? No one has taught me anything, and no one in our tribe knows how to practice. Besides, even if there were, who would be willing to teach a blind man anything?"
Xiao Junhao said this, but he also meant what he said.
As an old man who has lived for hundreds of years, Elder Murong seemed to understand the meaning of Xiao Junhao's words, and his face immediately turned red, looking slightly embarrassed!
However, as a dignified elder of Wansheng Pavilion, he is highly respected in the world of cultivation, and even more worshiped in the eyes of mortals. Now, a mortal kid dares to talk to him like this...
Elder Murong thought it was quite fresh and interesting, so he didn't take it to heart...
Elder Murong collected the magic talisman, grabbed Xiao Junhao's hand and examined it, and found that there was indeed no true essence or energy in Xiao Junhao's body, but his physical body...
"Huh? The body's spirituality is good, and the meridians' toughness seems to be good, but it's still a pity."
Elder Murong was surprised again, but then shook his head regretfully.
"Grandpa, what are you talking about? What's a pity about the spirituality of the body and the toughness of the meridians?" Xiao Junhao asked in confusion.
"To be precise, it's a pity for a genius. You are born with eye problems, and you are destined to be unable to embark on the path to immortality and have no chance of cultivating."
"Otherwise, with your qualifications, you can choose from our three major sects. The strength of your soul, the spirituality of your body, and the toughness of your meridians are all good."
Elder Murong said calmly.
"Just because of my eyes? So you reject everything I do?"
Xiao Junhao asked extremely unwillingly. Because he understood from Elder Murong's words how excellent his own cultivation conditions were...
He has three major sects to choose from. Who has the qualifications to say this? Who else has the qualifications to choose among the three major sects? I'm afraid there are only a handful of them in the entire world of cultivation!
"My child, go back! There is nothing I can do. Even if you go to the other two sects, they will not accept you. Your blindness is a major flaw. No matter how good your potential is, it will be in vain." Elder Murong road.
"Grandpa, are my eyes so difficult to heal? Even you cultivators can't do anything about it?"
Xiao Junhao asked again. He was really unwilling to go back like this. He only had such an opportunity in two hundred years. Once he went back like this, his life would really never see a bright future.
"Stop asking, go back! There's nothing wrong with living an ordinary life, just go!"
After Elder Murong finished speaking, he sat on the futon again and closed his eyes slightly. However, considering Xiao Junhao, Elder Murong finally called Situ Liang and explained a few words and asked Situ Liang to send Xiao Junhao out.
When they came out of Xiandao Pavilion, everyone did not dare to make any mistakes due to Situ Liang's pressure, but their eyes were full of ridicule.
Dugu Gaojie and his daughter who were waiting outside saw Xiao Junhao being sent out by Situ Liang, so they hurriedly greeted him. After the three of them thanked Situ Liang, they returned to where they were and continued to wait, because Dugu Qing'er had to wait. The assessment is over.
Xiao Junhao failed the assessment, and Dugu Gaojie had already been mentally prepared, because when Dugu Qing'er told the assessment process, Dugu Gaojie had already realized the result.
Dugu Gaojie believed that he failed the assessment because he put Xiao Junhao on the wrong team. Therefore, Dugu Gaojie felt ashamed of Xiao Junhao.
Xiao Junhao was depressed and silent. Dugu Gaojie knelt down, touched Xiao Junhao's head and said, "Xiao Junhao, I'm sorry, it's uncle's fault."
Dugu Gaojie and Xiao Junhao apologized face to face, saying that he had an unshirkable responsibility for failing the assessment.
"Uncle Dugu, don't blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. Even if I choose another sect, I still won't pass the assessment. After all, my congenital defect is an insurmountable obstacle."
Although Xiao Junhao is young, his character is indeed much stronger than that of his peers. Sometimes, even Dugu Gaojie can't help but be surprised and admired by the tone of his words!
Xiao Junhao was very smart. He didn't want to make Dugu Gaojie feel resentful because of his own problems. He said some of the words that Elder Murong said, deftly resolving the awkward atmosphere.
Not long after, everyone's assessment was over. A total of six people from Tiandao Sect passed the assessment, four people from Wan Sheng Pavilion passed the assessment, four people from Lingyun Sect passed, and finally one person from Taixuan Dao Sect passed.
The elders of the four major sects came out of Xiandao Pavilion one after another and called those who passed the examination to their respective sides...
"Dad, I'm going, you should take good care of yourself!"
Dugu Qing'er bid farewell to Dugu Gaojie with tears in her eyes, because once she leaves, she doesn't know when we will see each other again. Maybe ten years, twenty years, or maybe a lifetime...
The elders of the four major sects, with their respective selected disciples, showed off their magical powers and soared into the sky...
Some of them cheered excitedly in the sky, and some shed tears to bid farewell to their parents. From the moment they set foot on the Lingyun, the separation between immortals and mortals became an eternal parting...
The people below all look at them in the sky with envy, and some are even jealous...
They may be excited about cultivating, but they never imagined that they would perish miserably in the future...
The elders of the four major sects led them into four streams of light and flew into the distance, towards their respective sects.
The matter in Taiwu City came to an end. Lonely Gaojie took Xiao Junhao back to the outside of the city. After meeting the two hundred giant wolf riding warriors, they returned to Hualong City and the Dugu tribe.
