Chapter 444: Chapter 287: 5 Spirit Roots
Five Spirit Roots
Only the first one of each type is effective.
Those with corresponding spirit roots can enhance, those without can acquire them; the acquired spirit roots vary according to different constitutions.
There are no taboos for consumption.
However, Small Knife did not rush to consume it; instead, he returned to his own spirit vein, and at the core area, under the cover of the grand array, he directly placed it into his personal space.
For what purpose? Naturally, to analyze it.
This kind of spirit medicine that can be produced in bulk, even if it can only be consumed once, is very valuable. Wouldn’t it be great if one could manufacture it?
It can definitely be sold at a sky-high price.
Players are all poor, they can only pay on credit, using their efforts over decades to repay.
Indigenous people, especially the disciples of the Five Elements Sword Control Sect, have quite the demand, and selling privately can also yield a huge profit.
Then, his consciousness entered his personal space.
Nowadays, his personal space is vast like a little world, with the entire world bolstered by will.
All focused on the Spiritual Supplement Pill, its ingredients were rapidly analyzed.
Even the required spirit medicine for refining was deduced, truly reversing the heavens in effect.
Very soon, Small Knife confirmed.
There is only one main ingredient, accompanied by hundreds of auxiliary medicines.
Directly consuming the main ingredient yields the same effect.
However, the main ingredient content is too low; with the cooperation of auxiliary medicine, it can exert nearly ten times the effect.
Good heavens.
Passed it to Xiu’Er; the two of them researched it.
Soon, even in the personal space, under the will of the world, Small Knife had some revelations.
Whether it be the Earth Rock Marrow Fruit or the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower, both can serve as the main ingredient.
For refining, it can produce approximately nine spirit pills that enhance spirit roots.
Unfortunately, the Earth Rock Marrow Fruit was consumed by himself, gone, but the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower, under the nourishment of the will of the personal space, a second bud grew.
Such quick recovery is naturally due to the expansion of his personal space by countless times, also due to the Dragon’s Treasure and other gains.
Water attribute aids in the growth of the Sunflower Water Profound Spirit Flower, all of which he provided it.
Also with the continuous empowerment of the personal space’s will.
But even with the analysis by personal space, understanding the ingredients and such, refining is still impossible, at least not at the current skill level.
Must I learn alchemy?
Forget it.
Better to leave it to Xiu’Er.
The alchemy-related materials obtained by Small Knife from the Five Elements Sword Control Sect were already given to Xiu’Er.
She is currently the top-level alchemist and rune master, leading the trend on Water Blue Star, holder of multiple patents.
However, even after Xiu’Er studied it, it is still impossible to refine it for now.
Xiu’Er and her team, naturally, are in the personal space, now considered research bigshots.
These researchers naturally have to obtain spirit roots and pursue cultivation.
The few paths Small Knife has obtained, whether martial dao, bloodline, or witch sacrifice, their combat power may not necessarily be inferior to cultivators, but they fall far short in terms of life extension.
Just by successfully activating spirit, one can increase their lifespan by a cycle (60 years).
Moreover, at the Qi Cultivation Stage, each layer increase adds 10 years of life, and Foundation Establishment even adds three cycles.
Even without spirit root, it’s possible to awaken the spirit, but impossible to succeed in Foundation Establishment.
No spirit root, no way to establish the foundation.
Not only extending lifespan, this cultivation path is a direct path to becoming immortal with longevity, so Small Knife naturally chose this path without hesitation.
His direct lineage, such as Xiu’Er, must also walk this path.
Moreover, even based on his contribution, Xiu’Er has enough qualification to obtain spirit roots for cultivation.
She always fully supports Small Knife.
Now in the personal space, a floating small continent is Xiu’Er’s domain.
She still resides in the former courtyard.
After analysis and record, Small Knife did not pause and directly took out the three different attribute Spiritual Supplement Pills, swallowing them in one go.
Then he fell into a slumber.
This is one of the effects of the auxiliary medicine; when he wakes up, his whole body will feel comfortable, so he checks the prompt.
Ding: You have consumed three Spiritual Supplement Pills, acquiring the corresponding spirit roots.
Ding: Congratulations, you have acquired half spirit roots: Gold, Wood, Fire.
Reminder: Increasing your spirit roots will make cultivation more difficult correspondingly, but it will enhance the potential for casting the corresponding attribute spells.
Naturally, a single spirit root is the fastest for cultivation.
It’s the same all the way up to the Nascent Soul Realm.
The further you go, the harder it is to make up, and by the time you reach the Nascent Soul Stage, they would be extremely difficult to perfect.
The easiest time is before forming the Golden Core.
During the Third Realm Purple Mansion, supplementing spirit roots still requires reconstructing the Purple Mansion.
However, during the Foundation Establishment Stage, obtaining spirit roots automatically grants a foundation, becoming a Five Elements Spiritual Foundation, capable of casting Five Elements Magic.
Indeed, only Foundation Establishment allows for spirit roots to be supplemented without loss.
The power of spells is also exceedingly strong, especially with many experts in this regard within the Five Elements Sword Control Sect; it’s no less a match for magical treasures.
The reason Small Knife didn’t practice diligently is mainly because he is a half spirit root, thus the power exerted is limited.
It’s said that the highest spirit root has ten times the power of one’s spell—it simply makes too big a difference.
Ding: The Five Spirit Roots are complete; the corresponding cultivation technique activates hidden effects; the spirit roots counteract each other, mutually nourishing, slowly enhancing the spirit roots.
Small Knife was taken aback; there was this kind of advantage too.
However, after taking a closer look at the relevant data, the speed of completion is too slow.
For the indigenous people, it’s very precious, but for players, especially himself, to perfect a section of the spirit root, it would take at least ten years, and it will get slower with time.
And the extreme of spirit root is the nine-section spirit root.
This is the limit for mortals; only by becoming immortal can one break through it.
