Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect
Chapter 355 - 227: Spirit Root

Chapter 355: Chapter 227: Spirit Root

Li Qian began using his Spiritual Sense to explore his body under the Void State, wanting to know how different it was from the real world.

Perhaps through these differences, a viable method of cultivation could be found.

Under the guidance of his Spiritual Sense, the condition of his body gradually became clear.

"Ah, what’s this?"

Li Qian suddenly sensed a mysterious force within each acupoint in his body, seemingly hidden inside.

However, his Spiritual Sense could not unveil the secrets contained within.

"Are there deeper secrets hidden inside these acupoints?"

Li Qian’s mind stirred.

Perhaps the secrets within these acupoints were the key to the Void State.

After tracing the absorption of Spiritual Energy by the stomach, the gathering and movement within the body... Li Qian gradually discovered that these energies flowed into these acupoints.

"It seems these acupoints are the reservoirs for storing Spiritual Energy."

Li Qian opened his eyes.

His Spiritual Sense wasn’t strong enough; these acupoints were like blind spots, completely obscuring their deeper meanings.

With this in mind, Li Qian decided to seek advice.

In this camp, as the leader, Daoist Tuo Ba was undoubtedly the best person to communicate with... while others, including Xu Ao from the Longevity Realm, often spoke half-truths, making it difficult to grasp their real intentions.

After all, everyone in the camp had gathered together just to survive.

As for the real underlying details, nobody knew, nor could they be revealed.

Including Li Qian, he could not possibly reveal his own secrets.

Since entering the Oasis Camp, everything had been peaceful without any invasion from external enemies.

However, at night, various animal roars were still quite frequent.

Thus, the defenders of the camp were always on alert.

Ensuring the safety of the camp was the basic bottom line; losing this camp would have a significant follow-up impact.

Night fell.

The world was cold.

A bonfire was burning.

Li Qian sat beside it, feeling the warmth brought by the fire.

"Daoist Tuo Ba, I have a small question, may I ask for your guidance?"

He looked towards the burly man, Tuo Ba, sitting not far away and suddenly spoke up.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, what is your question?"

Tuo Ba, holding a Bone Knife, was carving something on a stained stone and nodded without lifting his head.

"After we eat, the Spiritual Energy absorbed by our bodies seems to flow into our acupoints. Is there any mystery within these acupoints?"

Li Qian asked.

"You’ve reached this level already?"

Tuo Ba’s carving knife suddenly stopped, and he looked at Li Qian with a surprised expression.

"Uh... Is something wrong?"

Li Qian, realizing something, immediately asked.

"Nothing wrong, just... I’m a bit surprised."

Tuo Ba shook his head, "To achieve Inner Vision usually requires more than ten steps of Returning to Void to utilize Spiritual Sense in the Void State, which indicates that a Spirit Root has been nurtured within the Longevity Spirit Body."

"Spirit Root?"

Li Qian was very surprised.

This was his first time hearing about it.

"Regarding Spirit Roots, I also don’t know where the concept originated, nor how it is detected, it remains a mystery, maybe left behind by predecessors who truly ascended to the High-dimensional World."

Tuo Ba smiled, "However, once you enter the Longevity Secret Realm and cultivate a Longevity Spirit Body, you begin to nurture a Spirit Root; when it will fully form depends on each individual’s innate talent."

Li Qian’s mind stirred, could it be because he achieved the Longevity Secret Realm that a Spirit Root was born?

"Daoist Qian Yuan, congratulations on your Spirit Root formation; it means you are qualified to cultivate in this realm."

Tuo Ba said with a smile.

"In this realm as well? Isn’t it that in the Void State, apart from some Spiritual Energy we can bring back, nothing else works?"

Li Qian was quite surprised.

"Normally, no, but with a Spirit Root it’s different. Your Cultivation Realm belongs to you. Even in the Void State, you can retain it."

Tuo Ba shook his head, "Daoist Qian Yuan, haven’t your predecessors told you this?"

Typically, those qualified to Return to Void, even generating a Spirit Root, should have a strong foundation and inheritance; they shouldn’t be completely unaware of the knowledge regarding Returning to Void and Spirit Roots.

"Daoist Tuo Ba doesn’t know, I’m just a Loose Cultivator who started from humble beginnings."

Li Qian shook his head.

"I see, for a Daoist like yourself to achieve what you have now is indeed commendable."

Daoist Tuo Ba exclaimed with admiration.

Actually, from Li Qian’s lack of common knowledge, he nearly guessed that Li Qian must have risen through opportunities and innate talent as a Loose Cultivator.

"Daoist Qian Yuan...since you have birthed a Spirit Root and can perform Inner Vision, you can explore your own method of cultivation. The focus should be on the acupoints you have sensed."

Tuo Ba said, "If you understand how to utilize those acupoints, you’d have truly entered the threshold."

"Acupoints?"

Li Qian was surprised; "Is it the realm within the acupoints that I sensed?"

"Each acupoint holds a world, Divine Aperture contains treasures."

Tuo Ba smiled softly.

After speaking, he no longer talked, instead focusing on carving the stone with his Bone Knife.

Li Qian knew that Tuo Ba had said all he would, and probably wouldn’t get any more answers if he asked further.

However, the guidance from the other was still very valuable to him.
