Spiritual Root, Aptitude Enhancement^!
Translator: 549690339
Having become a Mid-First-grade Pill Master and displaying exceptional talent in alchemy, his feelings of enthusiasm and excitement had grown even stronger. After all, what wife or concubine wouldn’t desire her husband to reach extraordinary heights?
The talent Zhou Sui demonstrated made clear his immeasurable future potential.
Zhou Sui turned so white in the face. Seeing the two charming wives leaning against him and another beautiful woman eagerly watching him from the next room, he couldn’t help but feel his life might be cut short.
Sometimes, it’s not a good thing to be overly demanded by wives and
concubines.
Everyone needs some rest, right?
“Huh?!”
At that moment, something stirred within Zhou Sui. He sensed a mysterious energy coming from the Obsession Gu, which instantly merged with his body.
He felt as if his body underwent drastic changes.
Seventh Grade Spiritual Root!
In this instant, Zhou Sui immediately understood what had happened. After this period of intense cultivation, his spiritual root had finally progressed from the eight-stage field to the seventh grade level.
Even though he was still at a lower grade of Spiritual Root, he’s now at the pinnacle of this level.
Simply put, he was equivalent to a genius among loose cultivators.
Of course, only those with a Sixth Stage Spiritual Root or above, reaching the Mid Grade Spirit Root, are eligible to become a disciple of a sect.
Compared with those sect disciples, his talent as a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root was nothing particularly noteworthy.
But compared to his original Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, his level of ascension was unknown.
“Is this the Seventh Grade Spiritual Root?”
Zhou Sui was elated. He willed himself to activate the Insect God Sutra. He found that his sacrament of nature’s spiritual energy at this moment had become more acute, and each time he breathed in and out, he could take in more spiritual energy.
Compared to before, his cultivation efficiency had increased by at least a third.
Even his comprehending ability had improved significantly.
Even without the aid of the Book Worm, his current understanding was enough to comprehend ordinary spells and cultivation techniques.
This was the strength of the Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, deemed a genius among loose cultivators.
Truthfully, although the efficiency increased by only a third, when accumulated over time, it became quite astonishing.
A cultivator with a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root and a cultivator with an Eighth Stage Spiritual Root, if both of them had cultivated for decades, the former would have probably reached the Late Qi Cultivation stage.
But the latter, with an Eighth-grade Spiritual Root, could never breakthrough and could only remain at the Qi Cultivation midway stage.
This is the gap in talent of the Spiritual Root.
A single step difference could lead to continuous discrepancy, ultimately resulting in an insurmountable gap.
“Those with a Seventh-grade Spiritual Root can also advance to the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer. Sadly when they finally achieve this level, they are generally septuagenarians with no hope of Foundation Establishment.
Zhou Sui sighed.
He knew that, among the loose cultivators, there were many with a Seventh-grade Spiritual Root. If they followed the routine cultivation process, they too could become cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer in the future.
The problem is, cultivators in the Qi Cultivation Stage must establish their foundation before they reach sixty years old if they are to have any hope of Foundation Establishment.
If they surpass sixty years old, there is basically no hope. The probability of success wouldn’t exceed 0.1%.
The older one becomes, the more remote the hope.
Of course, it’s not to say that success is absolutely impossible. The probability just significantly decreases.
Even if one does succeed, they must definitely have experienced some special circumstances.
This is why sects generally only recruit cultivators with a Mid Grade Spirit Root or above. As for those with lower grade Spirit Roots, sects wouldn’t bother with them as they are deemed to have no future.
“Good. If I continue at this rate, my Spiritual Root could advance to the Sixth
Stage Spiritual Root.”
Zhou Sui made a tight fist as he glanced at the virtual panel.
[Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer (Progress. 45 /o)>
Lifespan: 20 (120) years] [Aptitude: Seventh Grade Spiritual Root (1%)] [Swordsmanship: First-grade Superior (75%)] [Rune: First-grade Superior (35%)]

[Fireball Technique: Minor Accomplishment (95%), Wind Blade Art: Novice, Golden Light skill: Novice, Ice Frost skill: Novice, Spring Wind Ram skill: Novice, Lightning Summoning skill: Novice…]
Apparently, compared to before, his cultivation had improved significantly. Of course, the most important aspect was the elevation of his Spiritual Root Aptitude. This was something that no amount of Pills and Spirit Medicine could accomplish.
It is said there indeed exists a Spiritual Medicine in the Cultivation World that can promote one’s Spiritual Root. However, it is a treasure even Golden Core Masters covet and far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.
Although the Obsession Gu does not possess much fighting power, its auxiliary effect is incredibly extraordinary, incomparable to any top Grade Spirit Medicine.
■■After obtaining a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root Rank, the efficiency of my cultivation must have increased.”
Zhou Sui was very excited.
He still wanted to raise his cultivation to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer and formally advance into the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation before the war arrives. In doing so, his safety would be greatly assured.
In the afternoon, Zhou Sui sat at home calmly, using the power of the Book Worm to enhance his understanding of alchemy knowledge. During this period, his Alchemist Cultivation was also continuously improving.
It was at this moment that his neighbor, Xu Tianze, came to visit.
“Fellow cultivator Xu, what brings you here?
Although Zhou Sui was on guard around this mysterious neighbor, with no actions stirred from his side, he couldn’t do anything to him. The word would spread around, and his reputation wouldn’t look too good then.
“Well, fellow cultivator Zhou, here’s the thing, I recently discovered a previous cultivator’s Foundation Establishment cave dwelling in the Yunwu Mountain
Range.”
Xu Tianze said with a smile, “Regrettably, this cave dwelling is guarded by a Second Stage array formation. I alone can’t break this formation. Therefore, I would like to invite you, fellow cultivator, to join me in this effort.
If we succeed in breaching this Second Stage formation, we are certain to gain tremendous yield. There might even be Foundation Establishment spirit objects inside that could help us achieve our Foundation Establishment.
His tone was somewhat bewitching, as he tried to lure Zhou Sui into venturing out into the wilderness to explore the ancient site.
In fact, many cultivators often engage in this sort of activity.
If they were lucky, they could unexpectedly discover cave dwellings left behind by previous cultivators, thereby obtaining their lifetimes of wealth and inheritance.
Zhang Cheng, the alchemist of the old times, had done this. His luck was so good that he obtained an alchemical heritage, leading to the beginning of his rise.
Hence, many loose cultivators remained immersed in searching for these ancient dwelling sites, hoping to strike it rich overnight.
Regrettably, there were few who succeeded, while many died inside the ancient dwelling sites.
These cultivators either died in the prohibition array within the dwelling sites or in the violent infighting among their companions.
In short, exploring an ancient dwelling site was a gambit with nine chances of death against one of survival.
The parents of Zhou Sui’s previous incarnation died due to this..
