"This is not actually because our five sects are difficult to find, but because these sects of ours have been inheriting this matter since the ancient prehistoric period. A powerful immortal method must have its own power. The root cause, I also told you several types of spiritual roots." The old man in gray shirt said to Li Yan with a wry smile.
After hearing this, Li Yan thought for a while and said, "Miscellaneous spiritual roots, mysterious spiritual roots, earth spiritual roots, heavenly spiritual roots, holy spirit roots and alien spiritual roots."
The old man in gray shirt nodded and said, "Yes, there are these types, but these are only for other sects, and our ancestors of the five sects created these five ancient sects respectively, and those who want to be able to learn these immortal arts are It is different from other sects, which is why our skills are so powerful."
Li Yan nodded when he heard this. Although he is young, he still understands this principle. There is no such thing as a good thing that falls short of the pie. Good things must have their fundamental needs. However, he did not say much and just waited for the old man to continue.
The old man glanced at him and continued, "You should be able to guess from the names of these five sects that our five sects have the most sensitive attributes among the five elements."
Li Yan nodded, it was not difficult to guess, and said, "Like the Yimu Immortal Sect, the immortal method must be created for the wood attribute element, so people who are good at sensing wood spiritual gas should practice it; Dinghuo Immortal Sect, then It should be mainly fire-attribute immortality. People who are sensitive to fire aura have practiced more. As for your Guishui Immortal Sect, it is natural that the water-attribute physique is better."
The old man sighed and said, " You only guessed part of it right. Although the immortal magic practiced by our five sects also corresponds to the strongest attribute of the five elements that we sense, it is different from all other sects. We do not need the Holy Spirit root, but need one person at the same time. Only those who have all the attributes of the five elements can practice."
After saying this, the old man paused and looked at Li Yan, but saw that Li Yan's expression was blank, but he did not ask further questions, and just frowned. He started thinking, seeming to be considering what he just said. He couldn't help but praise in his heart, "This boy has a stable nature and a good mind."
Li Yan was thinking about the meaning of the old man's words. The meaning of what the old man said was what their five ancient sects needed. He is a person who can sense the five basic elements between heaven and earth at the same time, but this kind of physique should be the most despised miscellaneous spiritual root in the world of immortality. Let’s not talk about why they need this miscellaneous spiritual root that no other sect does. This should be It is related to the cultivation of immortals in the Five Immortals Sect, but it should not be difficult to find. According to the old man's previous description, although the population of the immortal world is small, there should still be people looking for it according to the probability, not to mention that there are still immortals later. Immortal cultivators from the spiritual world come to the mortal world to establish inheritance, which increases the chance of finding it, but why does the old man say that inheritance is the most troublesome thing for their five sects.
"This is the biggest secret of our five ancient sects. Although we need people with mixed spiritual roots, these are not ordinary mixed spiritual roots. Of course, mixed spiritual roots are the metal in the body.The five elements of wood, water, fire and earth are all responsive. Not only do we need the person to have the attributes of these five elements, but the attributes of the five elements must be arranged in order of strength according to the law of mutual generation. The method of mutual generation of the five elements is 'water produces wood. Wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water... In this cycle of life and life, life and life are endless', then the attributes of the five elements in the cultivator must also be arranged according to the strength of the five elements, such as 'Xinjin Xianmen' 'They are mainly 'gold', so the arrangement of the five elements in a cultivator's body must be 'gold, water, wood, fire and earth'. The strongest one that can sense the aura of heaven and earth should be 'gold', followed by 'water' ', and then 'wood, fire, earth'. If the latter one is stronger than the previous one, you cannot practice the immortal method of 'Xinjin Immortal Sect'; similarly, our 'Guishui Immortal Sect' feels that the order of the aura of heaven and earth is 'water' , wood, fire, earth, metal', the strength and weakness also decrease in order, so that you can practice your own immortal method. "
After listening to these words, Li Yan already understood the meaning of the words of the old man in gray. In this mortal world alone, ordinary cultivators can find immortals among a hundred thousand people. To get one person, no matter what kind of spiritual root it is, it is considered extremely low, and if miscellaneous spiritual roots are screened out among this extremely low probability of people, it is unknown whether one person can be found among millions of people. And in the end, it is necessary to find out among these people who appear almost out of nowhere, the probability of finding a physique formed by the mutual generation of the five elements... is self-evident.
This kind of arithmetic is something he has simply learned. According to this order, it is God's will to find one person among more than a billion people. Even the fairy world will not be that good. Go, I really don’t know how they passed it down.
The old man looked at Li Yan’s expression and sighed and said, “So, each generation of our five sects has to work hard to find it. The person who inherits the next generation is basically a single person or a few people in each generation. On the one hand, we have to practice Taoism. The time spent on cultivation is relatively small at the beginning. Later, it will be measured in units of ten years or hundreds of years. Usually, a retreat may last for dozens or hundreds of years. For us, this is just a matter of time. Just a snap of the fingers.
Therefore, in addition to the time for cultivation, the time for going out to find suitable inheritors can only be concentrated for a certain period of time. In this way, we go out intermittently, and naturally we have little contact in the eyes of the world. Well, as for why we don’t open the gates widely to recruit disciples, this method has been used in ancient times, with little effect. It is not as fast as using our spiritual consciousness to scan low-level immortal cultivators after we go out ourselves, so this special miscellaneous spiritual root constitution It's a problem that we can't solve."
When Li Yan heard this, his expression couldn't help but froze, as if he remembered something, but the old man noticed his expression at a glance, and seemed to know that he had thought of something. What? He smiled at him and said, "That teacher of yours is not from my sect. What he said about the 'Muying Sect' cultivation also requires a special physique or something. In fact, he just wanted to conceal the search for people with spiritual roots and let others think that It is a special disciple recruited by the hidden Jianghu sect.Just conditions. ”
