Earthly Deity Chapter 52

There were too many places for spirit root testing in Changluo City, and the lowest price was even as low as a hundred gold coins. Mo Wuji still chose the Star Han Spirit Opening Tower in order to prevent any mis-testing.

Mo Wuji had enquired about it, and the Star Han Spirit Opening Tower was also among the top tier Spirit Opening Towers in the Star Han Empire. This place also tested spirit roots and the accuracy of the test was 100 per cent. Originally, Mo Wuji was still a little worried that his spirit root was too good, and if he would attract attention if he secretly came to be tested. When he stood before the Star Han Spirit Opening Tower, he knew that he was really being presumptuous.

After standing outside the Star Han Spirit Opening Tower for just a few minutes, Mo Wuji saw hundreds of people coming in and out from here. With so many people coming to measure the Spirit Opening, who would care about him.

Mo Wuji walked into the Spirit Opening Tower, a huge signboard appeared in front of him, there were two arrows on the signboard, the one on the left said Testing Spirit Roots, while the one on the right said Developing Spirit Lines.

Mo Wuji walked towards the left and soon saw a window, under which it was written ‘Test Spiritual Roots Pay Seven Hundred Gold Coins’. Mo Wuji handed over seven hundred gold coins and received a sign which read 3,120,121.

There were many people who came to test their spiritual roots, Mo Wuji only needed to follow behind others. All the way to the third floor, there were hundreds of people sitting in the hall on the third floor. Because this hall was large enough, with over a hundred people sitting here, it looked extremely empty.

At the corner of the hall, there was a forbidding iron door. When Mo Wuji entered, a person walked out from inside. Following the sound of a chime in the hall, another person walked in.

In just less than half a minute, the person who went in came out again and the person who chimed in a new number went in.

Mo Wuji waited for about an hour or so before his name was reported, Mo Wuji stood up and walked into the door with some nervousness.

If there were no surprises, if this time, he was to still test out that he didn’t have a spiritual root, then I’m afraid he wouldn’t be able to have a spiritual root in his life.

After entering the room, Mo Wuji saw a crystal column that was even more crystal clear than the one in the Cheng Yu Spirit Opening Tower. Not only was this crystal column even more crystal clear, its height was also much higher than that of the Cheng Yu Spirit Opening Pagoda, Mo Wuji estimated that it was at least around one zhang five six.

Next to this crystal column sat a middle-aged woman, seeing Mo Wuji enter, she said expressionlessly, “Stand up by yourself.”

Mo Wuji had tested this once and had long had experience in testing spiritual roots, he immediately stood on this spiritual root testing platform.

The next moment, a bright blue light shot up into the sky, directly rushing over the top of this Spiritual Root Test Crystal Cylinder.

Moments later, the blue light disappeared, and the crystal column turned out to be the same as the original without any changes.

“What happened?” The woman who had tested Mo Wuji’s spiritual root suddenly stood up, and suspiciously walked to the crystal cylinder of the spiritual root test and touched it with her hand for a while.

After half a day, she couldn’t figure out what was going on, so she had to say to Mo Wuji, “You come down and go up to re-test it later.”

Mo Wuji was also initially stunned by the sky-rocketing blue light, followed by a kind of scalp numbing excitement. He had seen Smokey’s Spiritual Root Test, and Smokey was a cyan glow. Before that one cyan glow reached the top of that crystal cylinder that tested the spiritual roots, Smokey was awarded as an Extreme Grade Spiritual Root.

However, Smokey’s cyan glow had always been there until Smokey came down from the test column, and that cyan glow had only disappeared.

That soft cyan glow, Mo Wuji couldn’t even forget it until now.

What was going on with him? After that dazzling blue light rushed into the sky, it disappeared without a trace. Moreover, this light from his Spiritual Root test appeared to be extremely agitated, completely different from Smokey’s soft light.

“Stand up again.” Seeing that Mo Wuji was a little dazed, the middle-aged woman who had tested his spirit root called out again.

Mo Wuji hurriedly stood up, and a few moments later, Mo Wuji saw that the crystal cylinder of the Spiritual Root Test had a slight dull blue light flashing for a few moments before it returned to its original state.

The middle-aged woman frowned a little and somewhat not quite assuredly asked Mo Wuji to test it for the third time. Still the slight blue light flickered for a bit and disappeared.

“Low-grade mortal root, without any possibility of opening up a spirit complex, you go out.” That middle-aged woman finally determined that the dazzling blue light from the first time should be a problem with the spirit root testing crystal pillar.

Problems with the Spiritual Root Test Crystal Pillar rarely occurred, and it wasn’t as if they didn’t occur. It caused her to think that she was some kind of amazing genius and wasted her time testing it three times for nothing.

Mo Wuji’s heart was extremely disappointed as he walked out of the small room a little downcast. It seemed that the meridians that he had opened up should belong to the veins and not the Spirit Lines, if it was a Spirit Lineage, he would definitely already have a Spirit Root.

But what about the blue light from that first test? It still wasn’t right, when he tested at the Cheng Yu Spirit Opening Tower there was only grey light flashing a few times. And here it was blue light that flashed, could it be related to the fact that his body contained a lightning source?

Now that he had a cultivation technique, no matter what, he would first go back and cultivate. If he really couldn’t cultivate, he would find a way to cultivate martial arts.

Here he still had someone he couldn’t stop thinking about, and that was Smokey.

Apart from his parents, this was the only person he had met who would rather not eat or drink himself, but also let him live a better life.

Whenever he thought of Smokey, he was indignant at the woman who had forcibly taken Smokey away.

……

Tian Luo Restaurant, as soon as Mo Wuji entered the room, he closed the door behind him and took out the Qi Practising Foundation at the first opportunity.

“Heaven and earth opened up first and then there was Yuan Qi, this is a fallacy. The qi of heaven and earth and the universe were conceived at the same time and were born from each other. Those who have not attained the Dao position are all mortals. My generation of mortals, condense Yuan Qi and achieve longevity ……”

The opening paragraph appeared to be grandiose, giving Mo Wuji an extra level of anticipation.

When he saw Condensing Yuan Qi, First Earth Pulse Birth, he was dumbfounded. He didn’t even know how to do it, if he couldn’t even do this, how could he cultivate next.

Cultivation really does need a master, Mo Wuji sighed in his heart and hurriedly took out that Basic Spirit Complex Introduction. Finally, he found out in it what Earth Vein Sheng meant, that was the first step was to first let the aura pass through a spirit complex called Earth Vein, and then run along this spirit complex circumferentially.

Mo Wuji had opened up three chakras, but unfortunately, no matter how much he tried, even to the point of opening his mouth and sucking in air, he was unable to absorb the spiritual qi of the heavens and earth and pass through any of these chakras.

Did it really end here? Mo Wuji was very reluctant to try the Circumference Heavenly Orbit again.

For three to four hours in a row, Mo Wuji’s legs had gone numb from sitting, and there was no movement in absorbing the spiritual qi.

“Bang bang!” Mo Wuji was about to despair when two knocks on the door came.

Mo Wuji was so angry that he threw his cultivation technique aside and pulled the door open violently, seeing a somewhat familiar black-clothed woman standing at the door. The black clothed woman had a perfect body and her face was amazingly beautiful. Mo Wuji didn’t care how pretty the woman was, and immediately yelled, ”Don’t you know that it’s impolite to just knock on a guest’s door? If I’m sleeping with a woman inside, you’re going to come in and take a look too?”

The woman in black was startled by Mo Wuji’s infinite anger, then her gaze fell on the Immortal Mortal Technique that was tossed aside by Mo Wuji. Although this was the Qi Practising Foundation, the words Immortal Mortal Technique were a bit bigger.

“I’m really sorry for disturbing your cultivation. I am the guest who stayed here last night ……”

When the black clothed woman said these words, Mo Wuji suddenly remembered that he brushed shoulders with a woman yesterday when he came in, wasn’t it this woman?

If it wasn’t for this woman suddenly checking out, Mo Wuji wouldn’t have been able to find a place to stay for a while. He calmed his anger and reluctantly said, ”I’m sorry, I had a problem with my cultivation just now, and my fire was a little too strong. That you didn’t check out of your room? Why are you still coming here?”

Mo Wuji spoke in a lofty manner, the truth was that he had never succeeded in his cultivation from start to finish, what did he mean by having a bit of a problem with his cultivation.
