Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 3 Passing the test
Wang Xiaohu was shocked and said, "This guy is so arrogant, isn't he afraid of being blamed by the Immortal Master?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Cultivating immortals requires discarding the false and retaining the true, and striving for progress courageously. If one doesn't even dare to face and express one's true desires, how can one cultivate immortality or attain enlightenment? Wei Xu's performance might even earn the Immortal Master's praise."

Wang Xiaohu's eyes lit up and he said, "I see. If I pass, I'll do the same as him."

Zhou Qing said, "That's too contrived. Those who imitate me will live, those who are like me will die. Everyone should have their own path. Blindly imitating others will only backfire."

Wang Xiaohu nodded sincerely and said, "So there's such a profound truth in this. Brother Zhou Qing, how do you know all this?"

Zhou Qing thought, it’s nothing special, he’s just good at making up stories.

He smiled and said, "Read more and experience more."

While the two of them were joking around, it was Zhou Qing's turn to go on stage for the test.

When Zhou Qing walked onto the stage, the immortal master nodded to him in a friendly manner.

Of course, he heard what the two of them had just said.

He saw that Zhou Qing was only seventeen or eighteen years old, at the age when he was frivolous and impetuous, but he was calm and had his own views on cultivation. He couldn't help but have a good impression of him and hoped that Zhou Qing could pass the test.

The immortal master handed the jade to Zhou Qing and gently told him to concentrate and calm his mind, and sense the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Although he had prepared in advance, Zhou Qing still couldn't help but feel his heart pounding with nervousness.

He was worried about two things.

One is that if he fails to pass the test, his cultivation of immortality will be completely shattered, and he will probably regret it for the rest of his life.

Secondly, he was worried that the immortal master in front of him would discover his ability to control magnetic fields. He didn't know what this meant for an immortal cultivator. If the other party thought he was some kind of evil demon and tried to get rid of him, then things would be serious.

If the attraction of cultivating immortals was not so strong, he should not have come before the immortal cultivators for safety reasons.

Zhou Qing pretended to close his eyes and concentrate as instructed by the immortal master, but in fact he was quietly generating a magnetic field of ten feet in radius around him.

His heart was in his throat, and he was secretly paying attention to the movements of the immortal master.

Seeing that the immortal master didn't show any unusual expression, Zhou Qing finally felt relieved.

It seems that the immortal master did not notice his abnormality.

He then used the magnetic field to capture the spiritual energy of heaven and earth nearby.

Although these spiritual energies are called qi, they are actually more like an invisible and intangible energy similar to a magnetic field. They also have their own specific frequency.

According to Zhou Qing's exploration in recent years, he discovered five different bands of spiritual energy fluctuations, corresponding to the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.

Generally speaking, cultivators of immortality correspond to specific five elements.

Just like Wei Xu who passed the test just now, he has a fire-attributed spiritual root. Therefore, when he was tested, the jade emitted red light with nine layers of halo, indicating that he had nine spiritual roots.

When Nie Yunxi was tested, the jade emitted a black glow, indicating that she had a water-attributed spiritual root. The halo had thirteen layers, indicating that she had thirteen spiritual roots.

Zhou Qing himself does not have spiritual roots, so he cannot sense spiritual energy, but his magnetic field can capture spiritual energy in all five bands.

Out of caution, Zhou Qing finally randomly chose a band of spiritual energy to capture.

The jade in his hand began to emit a white light.

This is the manifestation of the metallic aura.

The white light only formed a thin halo around the jade.

This was not because he was deliberately hiding his abilities. He had already used his ability to control the magnetic field to the extreme, but he could only make the jade emit a halo of light.

It seems that the efficiency of the magnetic field in capturing spiritual energy is not that high, it is almost only similar to a spiritual root.

But at least it was successful.

And as his strength increases, the intensity of his magnetic field can also increase.

It is still unknown what will happen in the future. Zhou Qing was overjoyed and looked at the Immortal Master, only to find that the Immortal Master had a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

His heart suddenly sank again, and he thought to himself, maybe there was something wrong with the test, and I hope the immortal master has noticed something wrong with him.

Chen Qingxuan also feels a little embarrassed now.

He had a good impression of the young man in front of him and wanted to let him pass whenever possible.

But the results of the other party's test were really unacceptable.

You should know that the number of a person's spiritual roots will largely limit his or her future prospects in cultivation.

For this reason, the spiritual cultivation world divides people's spiritual roots into nine levels.

Among them, 1 to 9 spiritual roots are the ninth grade.

The limit of 9 spiritual roots is the peak of Qi training, and it is highly likely that one cannot build a foundation. The limit of 1 spiritual root is likely to be limited to the first level of Qi training.

By the same token, 10 to 18 spiritual roots represent the eighth level of qualifications, corresponding to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Of course, the restrictions are not absolute, but since they can be called restrictions, it is naturally extremely difficult to break through them.

The young man in front of him only had one spiritual root. Although he was qualified to practice cultivation, under normal circumstances, he would not consider accepting him as a disciple.

But the other person's temperament really made him feel rare.

So he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

After a long while, Chen Qingxuan finally nodded and said, "You pass."

it is good!
Zhou Qing couldn't help but scream in his heart. If the Immortal Master wasn't right in front of him and there weren't so many people watching in the audience, he would have wanted to yell loudly to express his excitement.

Even though he had lived two lives and had long since gotten rid of the reckless nature of youth, he still found it difficult to remain calm when faced with something as long as cultivating an immortal, something he had always dreamed of.

Zhou Qing suppressed his excitement, bowed to the immortal master, and then went down from the Linxiantai.

He wanted to say hello to the fat man, but he saw that the fat man impatiently went up to the platform without waiting for him to come down, so he had to walk out of the crowd by himself.

The treatment when you come out is completely different from when you go in.

He and the little fat boy squeezed in quietly while people weren't paying attention, but when they came out, he had become the focus of everyone's attention.

Many people stretched their necks to get closer to him. He had no time to distinguish their faces. All he saw were many people in fancy clothes and shouting at the top of their lungs.

Just as they were struggling to squeeze out, suddenly a group of soldiers pushed through the crowd and cleared a path leading to Huixian Tower.

When he reached the entrance of Huixian Tower, he found that his father was already waiting there. It was obvious that he was invited by the nobles of Yunzhou City upstairs.

Old Man Zhou had never expected that his son, who had failed twice, would pass the test on the third try.

He was not good at speaking, and although he was excited, he just patted his son's shoulder and looked at him with joy in his eyes.

An official from the City Lord's Mansion was in charge of reception at the door. He was a slick-looking man with a small mustache. He walked over and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, the City Lord and the gentry of Yunzhou City are hosting a banquet upstairs. Please hurry up, Mr. Zhou, and join us."

Old Man Zhou and Zhou Qing were both unknown in Yunzhou City, but this man with a small mustache was able to accurately call out their identities. It was obvious that in the short time that Zhou Qing took the test, people from the City Lord's Mansion had already inquired about his information.

Mr. Zhou?

Old Man Zhou was delighted to hear this and thought to himself that one day he would also be called Master.

Immortal cultivators indeed have different identities. Qing'er has only passed the test and has not yet formally started practicing, but his status has already risen.

But when he thought that his son was about to leave with the immortal master and they would never see each other again, he couldn't help but feel worried.

This is the case for most parents who send their children to take sect tests. They hope that their children will pass the test and bring honor to the family, but they cannot help but feel sad when they think of the upcoming separation.
