"Go ahead, stand inside and donât move. Your aptitude shouldnât be worse than Weixiaoâs."
Lu Changfeng called out to Li Weimiao, already having some guesses about Li Weimiaoâs aptitude in his heart.
They both joined the Cyan Mountain Sect alongside Li Weixiao, learning the basics of cultivation together, and then began their journey on the path of cultivation.
The difference in realm between the siblings is still quite significant now.
Li Weixiao is at the Second Layer of Qi Cultivation, while Li Weimiao is at the peak of the Third Layer.
In Lu Changfengâs view, it might be because Li Weixiao often helps She Qingqing manage the medicinal garden, busy with spirit medicine affairs, and thus has less time to cultivate compared to Li Weimiao.
Thatâs why heâs still at the Second Layer of Qi Cultivation.
Meanwhile, Li Weimiao not only has more time to cultivate but is also personally taught by Lu Zhiwei. In this situation, itâs no surprise that her progress is faster than Li Weixiaoâs.
Li Weimiao should have Dual Spirit Root aptitude, or at least Three Spirit Roots.
Following Lu Changfengâs instructions, Li Weimiao stepped into the Spirit Testing Array, feeling both nervous and expectant.
My own spirit root aptitude shouldnât be inferior to my brotherâs, right?
If my aptitude is too poor, would I be despised and expelled from the Cyan Mountain Sect?
The little girl was overthinking, understandably nervous.
But soon, a snow-white light slowly rose, accompanied by wisps of freezing cold spreading within the array, causing Lu Changfengâs pupils to contract.
"This is..."
A bit unbelievable.
Only when the tested person has a Single Spirit Root does the array emit a single light, and no subsequent lights will appear.
Could it be that thereâs not enough time for another one or two lights to rise?
"Changfeng Shibo, why is there only one light for me... Could the Spirit Testing Array be broken?"
Li Weimiao was aware of how the array functioned.
At this moment, even she found it incredible and doubted she could be a Celestial Spirit Root.
"Letâs wait a bit longer, letâs wait a bit longer."
Lu Changfeng responded.
After waiting a while, the ice attribute light still rose in the array, surrounding Li Weimiao.
Now, the result was unquestionable.
"This little girl is... an Ice... Ice Attribute Abnormal Spirit Root!"
Carefully scrutinizing Li Weimiaoâs test results, Lu Changfeng couldnât believe it and shouted out loud.
"Itâs actually an Abnormal Spirit Root, what a treasure weâve found!"
...
In just a moment, Lu Changfeng hurriedly appeared outside the cave mansion in the Back Mountain Forbidden Area, where Lu Ping was.
"Dad, are you in there? Say something."
"Hmm."
Lu Ping simply responded.
Hearing Lu Pingâs response, Lu Changfeng opened his mouth but didnât know how to proceed.
"Dad, the sectâs Spirit Testing Array shouldnât be prone to detection errors, right?"
"Did you take some disciples to test their spirit roots?"
"Yes, earlier Weimiao and Weixiao both actively requested to test their spirit root talents, so I didnât think much and agreed, conducting tests for both of them."
Saying this, Lu Changfengâs throat moved.
"The Spirit Testing Array... I donât think it would have detection errors..."
"I understand what you mean."
"Li Weimiaoâs test result is an Ice Spirit Root, right."
"Huh? How do you know?"
How could he not know? It was just obvious from the systemâs cheat.
Lu Ping murmured in his heart, speaking with an extremely calm tone.
"The Spirit Testing Array is normal, there was no detection error, Li Weimiao is indeed an Ice Attribute Abnormal Spirit Root."
The purpose of building the Spirit Testing Array was to test disciplesâ spirit roots, and it will be used when recruiting disciples in the future.
Testing Li Weimiaoâs aptitude now was something bound to happen.
Her Ice Spirit Root aptitude isnât something to be hidden anymore.
"So that means we have an Abnormal Spirit Root in our Cyan Mountain Sect!"
Lu Changfeng exclaimed in amazement, "This little girl Weimiao has unlimited potential in the future!"
"Itâs not just Li Weimiao, your older brother and little sister both now have Celestial Spirit Root aptitude too, one is wood, and the other is metal."
Now that Li Weimiao was mentioned, after a while, when Lu Zhiwei and Lu Yuanshan complete their secluded cultivation, they will definitely conduct a spirit root test as well.
The shock brought by their aptitude results will be no less than Li Weimiaoâs.
After all, Lu Yuanshan and Lu Zhiwei were both known to have Dual Spirit Root aptitude, and now becoming Celestial Spirit Roots, Lu Ping couldnât easily explain, so he thought it better to remind now.
"What?"
Hearing Lu Pingâs words, Lu Changfengâs mouth dropped open, and he couldnât help but exclaim excitedly, "Wow! Big brother and little sister are both Celestial Spirit Roots now, thatâs amazing!"
"Stop shouting, and no swearing."
"Hahaha... Iâm just a bit excited."
Getting scolded by Lu Ping, Lu Changfeng awkwardly scratched his head, "So, should I get my spirit root tested too, to see my own?"
"I know what youâre thinking."
Lu Ping spoke, "You donât need to test; you currently have Three Spirit Roots, but in the future, your spirit root aptitude can still be optimized."
"Spirit root aptitude can be optimized?"
"Could it be that my big brother and little sisterâs spirit root aptitudes are all thanks to you, Father?"
"Yes."
"How about... Dad, could you optimize mine now?"
Lu Changfengâs tone was full of anticipation, "I want to become a Celestial Spirit Root too."
"Weâll talk about it in the future; itâs not possible right now."
"Oh..."
Lu Changfeng felt slightly disappointed, realizing he had to wait, and thought about how both his big brother and little sister had their spirit roots elevated by their father.
Although this method of enhancing spirit roots was mystical, magical, and beyond understanding, it was not surprising after witnessing Lu Pingâs many divine techniques over the years.
"The fact that the sect has a Celestial Spirit Root member should be kept confidential; donât let it leak. Staying low-key is always safe."
Lu Ping emphasized this matter, "In the coming period, there will frequently be occurrences of spirit root optimization among sect members. Youâll gradually get used to it, it neednât be mentioned again."
With that, Lu Ping issued a dismissal order.
"Go about your business."
Lu Changfeng acknowledged and took his leave.
Time flew by swiftly, seasons changing from spring to autumn.
It had been more than half a year since Lu Zhiwei entered secluded cultivation.
On this day, a system dialog box appeared before Lu Ping.
[Spirit Vein Upgrade Success]
[Cyan Lotus Mountain Spirit Vein upgraded from Tier Two Lower Grade to Tier Two Middle Grade]
Since a year ago, after Lu Ping used a [Two-Star Spiritual Vein Upgrade], the Cyan Lotus Mountain Spirit Vein underwent a yearâs upgrade in rank, with increasing purity of spiritual qi and a steady growth trajectory.
The enhanced spiritual qi concentration of the Cyan Lotus Mountain Spirit Vein also allowed more spirit medicines to be planted in the medicinal garden, meeting the daily cultivation needs of the sect disciples and more.
After a yearâs upgrade, the Cyan Lotus Mountain Spirit Vein finally succeeded in ascending its tier.
As Lu Ping observed the notification of the spirit vein upgrade success, on the other side, Lu Changfeng also received the news.
