Li Jie once again received a message from Xiang Zhili. Regarding the artificial spiritual roots, the experiment was a success!
But in a sense, it was not completely successful.
As we all know, man-made ones are always not as good as the original ones. The Luoyun Sect spent countless manpower and material resources and finally succeeded in cultivating a five-spirit-root embryo.
The qualifications of the Five Spiritual Roots can be said to be the best of all.
If there were no unforeseen opportunities, there would be no chance to break through the foundation building.
Although the experiment was successful, Li Jie was not happy at all.
He doesn't have a small green bottle, so how can he have a lot of pills?
Not to mention that the main world does not have the spiritual flowers and herbs found in the mortal world. Even if there are occasionally a few that can replace them, the years are completely insufficient.
However, just because it can't be used in the main world, doesn't mean it can't be used in the mortal world. A few of my disciples can give it a try.
Of course, before doing this, you must ask their attitude.
On this day, Li Jie called all four disciples together. After everyone arrived, he went straight to the point.
"The artificial spiritual roots have been successful. You can see for yourself the specific method."
As he spoke, Li Jie waved his hand, and four pieces of light golden paper fell in front of the four disciples one after another.
As soon as he finished speaking, all four of them were shocked.
Success?
Do they have a chance to become immortals?
In the mortal world, as long as there are mortals who have seen those who cultivate immortality, there is no one who does not want to cultivate immortality, and Li Jie's four disciples are no exception.
However, the four of them had different reactions.
Although Feng Xiuwen was very restrained, his slightly trembling arms betrayed him. Obviously, his heart was not as calm as he appeared.
This year, he has reached the age where he knows his destiny. Although he still looks very young due to his success in martial arts, as time goes by, anxiety inevitably arises in his heart.
Martial arts has reached its end.
There is no hope for cultivating immortality, and he is getting older and older.
It's impossible not to be anxious.
On the other hand, the reaction of the second and third disciples on the side was much duller. A few years ago, they gave birth to their first child.
Now all their attention is on their children, who are the continuation of their bloodline.
What makes them most happy is that their children also have no spiritual roots.
Why are the couple happier without spiritual roots?
Because cultivating immortals is not as beautiful as imagined, cultivators also have emotions and desires, and there are even more disputes between cultivators than mortals.
If their children really have spiritual roots, they will have to debate whether to let their children practice immortality?
Not allowed?
It's a pity and unfair to the children.
let?
They worry that one day their children will die in the wild.
Therefore, children without spiritual roots are happier.
The last disciple, Wu Xiaoshan, who is also the youngest, compared to several senior brothers and sisters, his inner fluctuations are all written on his face.
He is very excited!
However, when he read the contents on the paper, his expression immediately changed, and his disappointment was palpable.
Then, there was a hint of self-deprecation and shame in his eyes.
He laughed at his own wishful thinking, and was ashamed that he had to look to Shu. The master had opened a window for mortals.
Although this window is small, having spiritual roots means there is hope.
Even if it is small, it is still hope, at least there is something to look forward to.
In past history, there are many examples of monks with pseudo-spiritual roots reaching the pinnacle of the human world.
Wu Xiaoshan looked at the gold foil paper in front of him, and then quietly glanced at the master. At this moment, he was having a fierce struggle in his heart.
Do you want to cultivate immortality?
After a long time, he made a decision.
It’s okay if this immortal doesn’t cultivate.
If he wants to break through the Five Spiritual Roots, he needs a lot of resources. He cannot rely on his master for everything. This means that he has to fight for and grab it by himself.
But with Master's character, it is impossible for Master to just let him go.
In this life, he owes Master so much, so much that he will spend the rest of his life unable to repay Master's kindness.
In addition, he can be sure that the senior brother will definitely take this step.
If you don't leave, then senior brother will no longer be senior brother.
Sure enough, after a while, Feng Xiuwen made a decision.
"Master, I want to become an immortal!"
After hearing what the senior brother said, the other three people looked at each other, and their eyes showed that this was indeed the case.
Among their senior brothers, the eldest brother is the most determined in seeking the truth. Over the years, the eldest brother has always been alone.
Unlike them, those who get married get married and those who have children have children.
Whether it is cultivating immortals or martial arts, it is only a part of their lives, not all of them.
For Feng Xiuwen, martial arts and immortality are everything in their lives.
Li Jie had naturally expected something that any disciple could expect. As soon as Feng Xiuwen finished speaking, he took out the things he had prepared.
With a flick of his finger, a simple-looking ring fell in front of Feng Xiuwen.
"The things inside should be enough for you to build a foundation."
After saying this, his eyes swept across the faces of the other three disciples one by one.
They are all his disciples, so of course he will not favor one over the other.
He prepared four copies of the same thing.
However, as he expected, he only gave away one copy in the end.
The remaining three disciples, without exception, did not choose to become immortals.
After all, if you want to obtain spiritual roots, you must first sacrifice half of your life force, and this part of your life lost is permanently lost and can never be made up again.
Seeing that all four disciples had made their choices, Li Jie left the scene after explaining what needed to be explained.
Although the four disciples are not related by blood, their feelings for each other are closer than that of brothers.
Obviously, they had something to say, and they wouldn't be able to let it go if they were present.
After Li Jie left, there was silence at first. All three people's eyes were on Feng Xiuwen, but no one spoke first.
"What are you looking at?"
Feng Xiuwen laughed and joked: "Is it possible that I have flowers on my face?"
He Wanxing hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and pierced the window paper.
"Brother, this method is too dangerous, would you please consider it carefully?"
Senior Brother is nearly sixty this year. Even if he is successful in martial arts and his lifespan is comparable to that of a monk in the foundation-building stage, he still has to lose more than half of his lifespan in exchange for the qualification to become an immortal.
The price is too great!
It is foreseeable that once this method is used, the senior brother will no longer be able to maintain his current appearance of a jade tree facing the wind, and will instantly turn into a gray-haired old man.
It is too late to start cultivating immortality at the age of sixty.
If the senior brother fails to complete the foundation building before his life is about to expire, this is not what they want to see.
It is too difficult to cultivate immortality with the Five Spiritual Roots. Even if the senior brother can build the foundation, the next step is to form a pill.
