Chapter 30: Disciple Test

Something happened!

Something big happened!

How many years had it been since someone dared to act so brazenly against the people of the Burning Sun Sword sect.

The one who died was still an elder!

The Grand Mystery Sect was finished!

Completely finished!

This thought flashed through everyone’s mind. They looked at each other and hurriedly fled from this place.

Meanwhile, in the Grand Mystery Sect, the sect’s general election was still in full swing.

In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed.

The number of people who had passed the selection had already reached five hundred.

Therefore, Ye Chen, who had already entered closed door cultivation and reached the mid core formation realm, officially announced that the martial selection had officially begun.

The martial selection was divided into three parts.

The first step was to test the spirit veins.

If there were some, then they would pass, if not, then they would leave.

It was a very simple selection method.

After all, it was an important condition to decide whether a person could go on the path of immortal cultivation and absorb the spirit power for his own use. It could not be skipped.

Unless this person’s luck was heaven-defying, or his physique was outstanding, difficult to find within a thousand miles, and as special as the son of Fate.

But unfortunately, none of the five hundred people were like this.

Thus, everyone had to pass this test before they could proceed to the next part of the test.

And the spirit veins were divided into many types, and their attributes were also very different.

The basic spirit roots were mostly five types: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Under normal circumstances, the more spirit roots one had, the more energy one could store in one’s body was not pure enough.

When absorbing spiritual energy to convert it, the efficiency would be very slow.

Therefore, people who had four or five types of spirit roots at the same time were called pseudo-spirit roots. Basically, having one was not much different from not having one. There was not much difference, and one could give up on cultivating.

However, there were very few people like this. It was not an easy thing to have bad luck to this extent.

Those who only had two or three types of spiritual roots cultivated slightly faster and were called true spiritual roots.

Most cultivators had these types of spiritual roots.

Those with a single spiritual root were called heavenly spiritual roots.

These people were extremely rare and usually had extraordinary talent.

For example, Xiao Huohuo was the possessor of a single fire-type spiritual root.

The number of spiritual roots not only affected the efficiency of cultivation, but it was also linked to the bottleneck when breaking through.

Usually, immortal cultivators with heavenly spiritual roots would cultivate very quickly and almost never encounter any bottleneck in their cultivation.

As for those with false or true spiritual roots, even if they absorbed enough spiritual power, it was very easy for them to fail when breaking through, resulting in failure.

This also made the disciples with heavenly spirit roots become the treasures of every sect, spending a large amount of resources to nurture them.

Besides the basic spirit roots, there were also mutated spirit roots, which represented the attributes of ice, wind, thunder, Yin, Yang, space, and even time.

The possessors of these mutated spirit roots did not have false or true spirit roots.

They only had the possibility of obtaining a false spirit root, and there was no more possibility.

In terms of cultivation efficiency, there wasn’t much difference from the heavenly spirit root.

It wasn’t over yet.

Legend had it that in the immortal cultivation world, there was an even more powerful spirit root constitution called the super spirit root.

The Super Spirit Root was divided into sun spirit root and moon spirit root. The Sun Spirit Root had the body of the kind, while the moon spirit root had the body of the evil immortal. Their cultivation speed was a hundred times faster than the spirit root.

What was even more terrifying was that they didn’t need any cultivation techniques and could cultivate on their own when they were born.

Normally, when they reached adulthood, they would have already reached the tribulation realm, and could shatter the void and ascend to the upper realm.

However, this kind of person was unprecedented in history. They only existed in legends, and no one knew if they were made up by others.

Apart from that, there was also the chaotic spirit root, which sounded very powerful. It was not even recorded in ancient books, and only had a name.

When ye Chen was designing the contents of the general election, he had already read about the process and results of the Great Mystery Sect’s recruitment.

In the eight hundred and fifty-four years since the Great Mystery Sect was founded, they had only received one disciple with a heavenly spirit root, and not a single mutated spirit root had appeared.

From this, it could be seen how rare and valuable a spirit root was.

When five hundred people passed the test and were found to have a spirit root, not a single one of the four hundred and thirty-seven people had a heavenly spirit root, ye Chen was not surprised at all.

He had already prepared himself for this.

Plus, the school was so good, so the inheritance tower would take the initiative to find him a talented disciple.

Next, there were two more stages of the test.

The part that ye Chen was most interested in had already ended, so he left the matter to Xiao Huohuo and went back into closed-door training.

Xiao Huohuo was already used to it.

Anyway, it was not a big deal. As the head disciple, he needed to share the pressure with the leader.

It was not until the evening that Xiao Huohuo finally got everything done.

This time, he had recruited a total of three hundred and fourteen disciples for the sect.

Among them, there were two hundred and seventy-two disciples with True Spirit roots.

Including the fake ones, they were all part of the miscellaneous disciples.

When he was about to leave, Ye Chen showed up again, letting the disciples know him.

Under the pressure of the leader, he did not even need to say a word to make these young people, who had just entered the mortal world, admire him.

They were either impressed, excited, adoring, or respectful. There were different expressions on their faces.

It was obvious that they all agreed with the fact that they had become a part of the great mystery sect.

Right then, the system’s voice also sounded in ye Chen’s mind.

“Ding! The sect has sensed that the sect leader has made the great mystery sect somewhat famous in the east continent. After taking in a new batch of disciples, they felt proud of themselves, and in their excitement, they took the initiative to offer a big gift package.”

“Your attack of the peak of the unity realm has been upgraded to the attack of the peak of the crossing calamity realm. The sect leader’s pressure has increased again.”

“You have obtained the [ outer disciple cultivation room ] and the [ inner disciple cultivation room ] .”

“You have obtained the [ outer disciple mountain peak ] and the [ inner disciple mountain peak ] .”

“You have obtained the [ sect expansion template ] .”

“You have obtained the [ Dao Qing Tai ] .”

“You have obtained the [ four divine statues ] .”

“You have obtained the [ Yin Yang Treasure Pavilion ] .”

“You have obtained the [ genius ranking ] and the [ elite ranking ] .”

…

After a series of announcements, a satisfied expression appeared on ye Chen’s face.

“Very good, very powerful.”

Then, he started to look through all the rewards in the system.

“[ peak-level crossing calamity realm attack ] ?”

This item made ye Chen a bit excited.

There was a common understanding in the cultivation world that those who had reached the crossing calamity realm were all ants.

Rumor had it that only after reaching the tribulation stage and undergoing the baptism of the Heavenly Thunder would one truly be on the journey of cultivation.

Only after reaching the tribulation stage could one truly be considered an expert.

Now That Ye Chen had the attack of this peak tribulation stage expert, he had a bit more confidence.
