Ning Shu felt rather tired. Since she didn’t plan on joining Immortal Sect, she decided to just sit down on the steps and close her eyes to rest for a while.
The spiritual energy surrounding her was very dense, but she suppressed her desire to practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. At the very least, she had to wait until she left Immortal Sect before she started.
In any case, simply inhaling the spiritual energy made her feel quite refreshed.
Practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts in this world would definitely give her a lot of benefits. She hoped that she could cultivate it until she could form that golden dragon in her dantian.
Ning Shu got the feeling that the spiritual energy was slowly seeping into her body, forming a spiritual mist in her dantian.
She was a bit shocked. She hadn’t started cultivating at all, but spiritual energy was still flowing into her body.
How scary.
She had never encountered this kind of situation before. Could it be that this body was talented enough that it could constantly absorb spiritual energy?
What a joke!
If Xiao Susu had this kind of talent, then she would never have fallen to the point of being used by others.
Ning Shu stood up. Spiritual energy was still continuously rushing into her body, making her feel incredibly refreshed.
But Ning Shu was a little scared. This situation was very strange.
After the assessment finally ended, the stairs disappeared. Ning Shu found herself standing in the plaza, surrounded by people who were either sitting or sprawled out on the ground.
All of them were tired to death. Each one of their faces were pale.
Some people were even bleeding. Clearly, they had forced themselves to endure the intense pressure in order to climb higher, and their bodies couldn’t take the strain.
In comparison, Ning Shu found that she was the one who had the easiest time out of all of them. Her body was still absorbing spiritual energy, making her feel very comfortable.
Facing the surrounding gazes, Ning Shu immediately sat down among the group and placed her hand on her forehead to feign exhaustion.
Next, they would have their spiritual roots tested. A disciple of Immortal Sect brought over a testing stone. The testing stone had many streaks running across its surface and looked to be made of something similar to jade. This must be the tool that was used to test spiritual roots.
“Line up to test your spiritual roots,” said the Immortal Sect disciple to the newcomers.
“Li Xin, earth and wood, dual spiritual roots.”
“Li Yi, water, single spiritual root.”
“Yu Linger, water and earth, dual spiritual roots.”
“Help me. I can’t get up,” said Qiu Mu to Ning Shu. He was getting anxious since so many other people had already gotten their spiritual roots verified.
Ning Shu lifted Qiu Mu up by the collar.
When Qiu Mu touched the testing stone, it changed into a pure gold color.
“Qiu Mu, metal, single spiritual root.” The Immortal Sect’s disciple’s voice raised a little in approval since the attacking power of the metal spiritual root was very strong.
Qiu Mu turned around to look at Ning Shu. “I told you I had a metal spiritual root.”
“Xiao Susu.” The disciple called out Ning Shu’s name.
Ning Shu placed her hand on the testing stone. The stone turned into the three colors: brown, green, and red, meaning that she had triple spiritual roots of earth, wood, and fire.
Upon seeing Ning’s Shu’s aptitude, Qiu Mu’s brows furrowed. “How come your aptitude is so bad? It’s fine, I’ll take you under my wing in the future.”
Ning Shu smiled and said, “Thanks.”
Everyone’s spiritual root attributes were recorded and those without spiritual roots could only return to where they came from.
After their spiritual roots were tested, the group of people were brought to the main hall.
The main hall was full of powerful cultivators. Right now, they were gathered here to select disciples.
Lord Qing Hua was also present. His gaze traveled beyond his folding fan and landed on Yu Linger instantly.
The group of people saluted the sect leader and the elders of each peak. Then, they waited to be selected.
Those with single spiritual roots were the most sought-after, especially Qiu Mu, who had a metal spiritual root. Even the Great Elder who had been in seclusion had his interest piqued. The Great Elder used his high level of cultivation and the fact that he also had a metal spiritual root as the reasons to snatch Qiu Mu away as a disciple. He argued that he was most suited to teach Qiu Mu and that Qiu Mu’s talent would end up wasted otherwise.
The Great Elder took Qiu Mu in as his disciple and gave him a spiritual artifact as a meeting gift, making other people so jealous their eyes turned green.
