Chapter 954 - 948: Spirit Root Assessment (Part 1)
Woosh!
Above the horizon, Qin Yang in a white robe descended from the sky. With a flash, he landed back on the ground, exuding an ethereal aura. He raised his gaze, looking at the disciples of the three sects, whose blood was already boiling with excitement.
"Does everyone want to achieve this one day?"
On the wide stone platform, Qin Yang stood with his hands behind his back, a smile on his lips. His clear voice resonated in the ears of every disciple.
Hearing Qin Yang's words, everyone was taken aback for a moment, then their eyes lit up with excitement.
"Yes!!!"
Everyone shouted in unison. Who wouldn't want to learn such a skill?
"Young Master Qin, are you really going to teach us such an important magic technique?"
Gu You, the elder of the Ancient Sword Sect, stepped out with excitement plastered all over his old face and asked respectfully, gathering his courage.
"Indeed."
Qin Yang smiled and nodded.
"However, before you can perform sword flight, you must become a cultivator like me. Do you want to become a cultivator?"
Qin Yang asked with a smile.
"A cultivator?"
"Can we become cultivators as well?"
"..."
Hearing Qin Yang's question, everyone became excited again. Their eyes burned with desire; becoming a cultivator would mean they could be as powerful as Young Master Qin and soar above the vast skies, which was thrilling to even think about.
"Today, I will give you all a chance to become cultivators. However, you need to pass a test. Only those who pass the test can become cultivators. At that time, whether you succeed depends entirely on your aptitude. I must tell you, the probability is not very high."
Qin Yang's eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at everyone present, speaking solemnly.
"Yes, Young Master Qin!"
Upon hearing his words, everyone remained excited, their eyes filled with eagerness.
Although it might not be possible to become the lucky one, as long as there is a chance, it's enough. Besides, who wouldn't want to prove that they can do it?
"Before testing everyone, I have one more announcement to make. I plan to establish an immortal cultivation sect, and its name will be Pill Talisman Sect."
Qin Yang announced loudly.
Qin Yang did not use the name "Celestial Dao Sect" from his previous life on the Immortal Yuan Continent, as it was his master's sect. Naturally, his own sect should not bear the same name.
"Pill Talisman Sect?"
"What an evocative name, definitely an immortal cultivation sect."
"..."
Upon hearing this, everyone present became excited.
"Those who pass the test will need to join the sect in order to learn what I teach."
Qin Yang's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Nangong Feiyang, Nangong Huozhu, and others.
The Ancient Sword Sect, Celestial Sword Pavilion, and Sea Dragon Sect were all his subordinates, so joining the Pill Talisman Sect naturally wasn't a problem. As for the members of the Nangong Clan, whether they would be willing to join his sect despite their own beliefs remained to be seen.
"Brother Qin Yang, though the Nangong Clan is an ancient martial arts power, the clansmen have considerable freedom. If we pass the test, we are willing to join the Pill Talisman Sect."
Nangong Feiyang said earnestly.
"Brother Qin Yang, I also want to join."
Zilan said with a playful smile.
"Very well."
Qin Yang smiled slightly and nodded.
"Alright then, I will now assess everyone's spirit root to see if you have the aptitude for immortal cultivation."
Qin Yang's eyes shone brightly as he looked at everyone present.
"Spirit Awakening Array, activate."
With a pinch of his fingers, Qin Yang directed a surge of spiritual power from within, transforming into hundreds of streaks of light. These streaks shot into the marble plaza from various directions.
Buzz!
On the ground, patterns of glowing array patterns emerged, interlocking with each other. The light from the laws interwove, flickering faintly, forming a massive curtain that surrounded the array patterns.
Seeing this, the crowd's eyes shimmered with light, excitement evident in their gaze.
"Alright, those willing to take the test, step into the array."
Qin Yang said as his gaze swept over the crowd.
Upon hearing this, everyone present eagerly walked towards the light curtain.
Along with the excitement, there was also some anxiety, because the thought of becoming a cultivator and soaring above the sky held such anticipation for them.
A wondrous new world was unfolding before them.
"Sister Ruan, you should go in too."
Qin Yang looked at Ruan Xinxue and said with a smile.
Ruan Xinxue, bearing the Ice Skin Jade Bone Body, naturally had a pure Ice Spirit Root, which only needed to be awakened.
"Alright."
Ruan Xinxue nodded, her beautiful eyes sparkling. Looking at the Spirit Awakening Array, she was finally able to step into the Immortal Dao like the little rascal.
With emotions of excitement, anxiousness, and anticipation, everyone stepped into the Spirit Awakening Array, sitting cross-legged on the marble square.
Beside them was the glowing, intricate array pattern, making them feel as if they were in the Immortal Cultivation World.
"Everyone, center your heart and spirit, empty your mind, and close your eyes."
Qin Yang's clear voice sounded in their ears.
Upon hearing this, everyone closed their eyes, centering themselves, though they couldn't help feeling somewhat excited inside.
At this moment, outside the array, only Qin Yang and Zilan remained, while everyone else within the Mountain Villa was in the Spirit Awakening Array.
In a flash, Qin Yang stood at the front of the array, pinching his fingers into a spell seal, his spiritual power turning into a river that flowed into the array.
Buzz~!
Within the light curtain, the array patterns glowed brightly. Above the array, the lights converged, transforming into a vast, splendid starry river.
In the starry river, stars adorned the scene, each one resembling an eye capable of foreseeing secrets, watching over the cross-legged figures below.
"Spirit Awakening Array, open the Spiritual Eye, awaken the Spirit Root!"
Qin Yang shouted, forming a spell seal with his hands.
In the starry river above, the stars began to shine ever more brilliantly. Soon, beams of starlight descended, each corresponding to a person, enveloping those sitting cross-legged.
As the starlight that stimulated the spirit root fell, the expressions of everyone within the Spirit Awakening Array became solemn, and their bodies all trembled slightly.
At this moment, Qin Yang also released the spell seal from his hand.
"Brother Qin Yang, is that it?"
Zilan blinked her eyes and asked.
She remembered that when she awakened her spirit root in the Vermilion Bird Flame Tower, a blazing flame emerged unconsciously in her mind, as if a certain ability had suddenly awakened.
"Yes, from now on, we'll see how many people can awaken their spirit root in the next quarter of an hour."
Qin Yang smiled slightly, nodded, his gaze focused on the people sitting cross-legged within the light curtain, his voice filled with anticipation.
After a quarter of an hour, if the wise-eye starlight still hasn't activated the hidden attribute within a person—the spirit root—then it indicates that the person does not possess the aptitude for immortal cultivation.
