228: Chapter 232 Spiritual Root

"Each major Realm has one minor Realm. Knowing this much is enough for now."

"If you pass the test, you will learn more."

Lu Chen nodded.

This was within his expectations.

So, he didn't ask further.

Soon,

they arrived before a massive mountain range.

The flying boat began to descend.

Elder Huang looked at Lu Chen and said,

"We have arrived. Someone will take you to the Ascension Hall."

Lu Chen nodded.

His Mental Energy now covered the entire mountain range.

This mountain range was even larger than Blue Star.

The Sect was situated atop the largest peak.

This was because that location contained streams of powerful auras.

Some even surpassed the total mass of over ten thousand life-bearing planets.

Lu Chen thought,

"Later, I will compare this with the power levels of the Great Universe."

The flying boat landed on the ground plaza.

Many young men and women immediately stepped forward to pay their respects upon seeing the flying boat land.

"We welcome Elder Huang's return."

They looked curiously at Lu Chen.

Huang Moyu took out a Jade Slip from his person.

Under Lu Chen's puzzled gaze,

he formed a hand seal.

Soon,

a woman dressed in a cyan long skirt walked toward them.

She paused in her steps,

and bowed respectfully to Huang Moyu.

"Greetings, Revered Master."

Huang Moyu nodded,

then looked at Lu Chen and said,

"Take him to the Ascension Hall."

As soon as he finished speaking,

everyone looked at Lu Chen with some surprise.

Elder Huang personally brought someone to test the Spiritual Root.

Who was he?

Huang Moyu said,

"This is Li Yao. She will take you to the Ascension Hall. Good luck."

Then he smiled slightly,

and his figure flashed,

vanishing from where he stood.

Lu Chen looked at Li Yao.

She appeared to be only in her early twenties,

with a beautiful appearance, a gentle expression, and an extraordinary temperament.

However, he could also tell this girl was strong.

At least 600 million tons of base strength.

He took the initiative to greet her first.

"Greetings, Senior Sister Li Yao. I am Lu Fu. I ask for your guidance."

Li Yao nodded lightly in acknowledgment.

Her attitude was neither warm nor cold.

Lu Chen didn't mind.

He wasn't here to chase girls.

Afterward, Li Yao left.

Lu Chen followed behind her.

Soon,

they arrived at a grand hall.

Li Yao said,

"Go into that room. Elder Yuan, who is responsible for testing the Spiritual Root, is in there. I will wait for you here."

Lu Chen nodded,

and entered the room.

An old man whose strength was comparable to Huang Moyu was sitting on a chair,

looking at something.

He looked up,

and sized up Lu Chen.

"Little Fellow, who brought you here?"

"Elder Huang."

Lu Chen replied.

Yuan Shiqing nodded,

"Alright, sit there."

He pointed to a circular platform covered in complex runes.

Lu Chen sat cross-legged there.

That Elder Yuan muttered something to himself,

then formed a hand seal,

and pressed it onto the circular platform.

The runes lit up.

A strange energy entered his body.

Lu Chen's Mental Energy, just like the previous few times,

followed the path of that energy.

When the strange energy reached his heart,

Rumble!

a strange object gradually formed there.

Soon,

a small sword materialized.

As soon as the sword formed,

it immediately began absorbing that strange energy like a black hole.

Yuan Shiqing's expression had been languid at first,

because he held little expectation for this boy who looked utterly ordinary.

But then,

Rumble!

The entire room,

and even the Spiritual Qi within a radius of several hundred miles,

was instantly sucked away at the speed of light.

The runes erupted with a deep purple to black glow.

Yuan Shiqing's eyes widened in terror.

Since the founding of the Qingyang Sect,

no one had ever awakened a Purple Extreme Spiritual Root.

Not even the Founding Ancestral Master.

He himself had only awakened a Cyan Extreme Spiritual Root.

But what he didn't know was...

Lu Chen had asked Elder Huang

if there would be an anomaly when the Spiritual Root awakened.

Elder Huang said there would be an anomaly,

which was that the runes on that circular platform would be lit up by his Spiritual Root.

Because once the Spiritual Root awakened,

it would start actively devouring Spiritual Qi.

If the Spiritual Root's Rank was high,

even people outside the room would notice the change in Spiritual Qi.

But this only applied to Spiritual Roots of Green Rank and above.

Lu Chen also asked about the influence range of the Spiritual Root absorbing Spiritual Qi during Awakening.

For a Green Extreme Spiritual Root,

the influence range was 30 meters.

For a Cyan Extreme Spiritual Root,

the influence range was 1 kilometer.

For a Blue Extreme Spiritual Root,

the influence range would reach 5 kilometers.

As for the Purple Extreme Spiritual Root,

Huang Moyu didn't know the exact range,

but it should be around tens of kilometers.

Furthermore,

during the Spiritual Root Awakening process,

one could see the phantom image of his Spiritual Root and the color it emitted.

Lu Chen looked at the sharp, slender black small sword,

only the size of a finger,

floating above his heart.

It existed in another space, much like a Spiritual Vein.

The moment it was born,

it began to frantically absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

The influence range was not just 10 kilometers;

it was 10 kilometers that Lu Chen forcibly controlled it to.

If he let it absorb without restraint,

it might alert the old monsters in other places.

He wasn't prepared yet

to deal with those ill-intentioned old monsters in the Cultivation World.
