Although the method of using spiritual objects to calculate talent is very rudimentary.

However, it is also very convenient.

It is especially easy when the person being tested is just an ordinary person.

If a mortal can elicit a reaction from a spiritual being simply through contact, then they possess a low-grade talent and are capable of cultivation; if the reaction is intense, then they possess a mid-grade talent.

However, even among spirits that exhibit intense reactions, there are differences in the mid-grade talents corresponding to the first, second, and third levels of the Transcendent Realm.

Like Guard Captain He, who can make a spirit creature at the second level of the Transcendent Realm react with excitement, such talent is already considered top-notch in a village like this, with only one in thousands.

Initially, when they heard that Shen Huang's talent was even higher than that of Guard Captain He Ye, most people thought that it was a level that could make a spiritual creature at the third level of the Transcendent Realm react so strongly, and that he could be called a genius, one in tens of thousands!

But what is this right now?

Lord Yu... that's a spiritual object at the fifth level of the Mortal Transformation Realm!

Top quality talent!

It's not even the initial stage of superior talent yet!

How many people would it take to produce one?

Hundreds of thousands? Or millions?

These guards were unaware that this was completely beyond their comprehension; even He Ye was staring blankly at Shen Huang.

It took him a long while to realize what was happening, and he quickly bowed and said, "Lord Yu, now is not the time to test your talent, please hold back a little."

After calling out "Lord Yu" several times, the short sword seemed reluctant to retract its spiritual light. Then, like a swimming dragon, it shrank directly into Shen Huang's sleeve, remaining motionless except for a faint spiritual light.

This relieved Shen Huang.

Just now, he had subconsciously activated his cultivation technique, but the feeling of fullness from the excessive spiritual energy was still strong. If it continued, he was afraid he would just fall off.

However, this seems to have revealed part of his talent once again.

Shen Huang used his sensory abilities to secretly observe the reactions of the others.

Upon discovering the guards, most were shocked and in awe, while Chief Guard He, though equally shocked, seemed to have somewhat anticipated it and did not show much disbelief.

This level of talent seems to be within acceptable limits.

"It will be better once I become a Spirit Master." Shen Huang thought to himself. His talent was probably truly extraordinary, and once he became a Spirit Master, he would be able to control it and wouldn't react like this when he touched other people's spirit objects.

Originally, this method was only suitable for testing the talents of ordinary people.

"Let's hurry up," he said to the others. "We need to stay in the gray fog for quite a while, so the less time we waste on the journey, the better."

"yes!"

He Ye subconsciously responded with an attitude of obedience, then realized what was wrong, but didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

The same was true of the others; they were all noticeably more reserved.

But as they gradually came to their senses, their gazes toward Shen Huang became much more fervent.

With such talent, as long as they don't perish along the way, they will surely become great figures that they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

What is this? It's an opportunity!

People don't ask to stay by the side of important figures forever; just being able to receive some protection and gain a little safety in this world is something countless people dream of.

At that moment, everyone firmly protected Shen Huang in the center as they stepped into the gray fog.

This time, the experience was clearly different from the last time I entered the gray fog.

Last time, there was a bone-chilling cold, as if the coldness drilled directly into the depths of my bones.

This time, however, it was just ordinary damp cold, and with warm clothes on, there wasn't much discomfort.

Clearly, it was someone else's spirit protecting him; even the Feather Master he carried in his sleeve was continuously channeling warm energy into him.

In addition, the group walked at a fast pace, and after only walking a few hundred meters further, Shen Huang felt no chill at all.

However, the gray fog at night truly gave people a rather terrifying feeling.

The spiritual light could only protect the surrounding area. Beyond two meters, it was completely dark. Even in the surrounding area, only the figures of a few people shrouded in gray mist could be seen, and even the path underfoot could not be seen clearly.

Unfortunately, the surrounding noise was quite loud.

Besides the sound of a few people stepping on piles of fallen leaves and dead branches, and scraping through bushes and weeds, there were quite a few other sounds.

The sounds of insects chirping, the wind blowing, something moving around, and even a faint hissing.

The complete lack of nighttime tranquility made Shen Huang feel as if he were in a den of aliens.

In addition, the obstructed view makes one quite nervous.

He Ye seemed to sense Shen Huang's discomfort and explained softly, "This is only the shallow area, with only some mist monsters that haven't yet grown in strength. We have spiritual light protecting us, so they dare not offend us."

"But is this density also present in the real gray fog?" Shen Huang mainly noticed that the density of creatures, or rather monsters, in this gray fog exceeded expectations.

The last time it was daytime, it wasn't like this.

"It's the same. Ordinary fog monsters don't dare to approach. However, there are more threatening fog monsters. But this place is close to the sanctuary, so Lord Shen doesn't need to worry."

Chief Guard He was clearly used to it.

The same is true for everyone else.

One of the guards respectfully said, "Lord Shen, we all became Spirit Masters in this way, and we will do our best to protect your safety."

Shen Huang paused for a moment, then nodded and chuckled, "I really don't know anything about the gray fog. Thank you all for your help today."

The group all shook their heads repeatedly, being polite.

They were all quite envious.

In this era, there are still people who don't understand the basic situation within the gray fog, which truly shows how strictly it is protected.

Moreover, despite such talent, he has not yet begun his training at this age.

It makes one's imagination run wild.

And so, as the group moved further and further away from the village, the surrounding noise grew more and more intense.

When they reached a certain place, He Ye suddenly stopped.

Shen Huang noticed that there was a circular flat area in front of him, about fifty or sixty meters in diameter, and there were no weeds on the ground, so it had obviously been cleared.

"We've arrived." He Ye turned around and gave a deep command, "Gentlemen, let's begin."

"Understood." The four guards spread out and stood at the four corners, each taking out a spiritual item.

"Lord Shen," He Ye said respectfully to Shen Huang, "If you have any other items that you intend to cultivate into spiritual objects, you can place them around you. This will prevent them from awakening their spirituality too early, and it will also allow them to develop some spirituality first."

Looking around, the other guards also took out some items that were not spiritual objects and placed them at the edge.

Clearly, this isn't the first time something like this has been done.

Shen Huang understood.

Such a spirit-awakening ceremony would be fraught with danger without the protection of several spirit masters.

For a mere mortal, it is almost impossible.

So, as the guard just said, they used to go through the same thing.

This ceremony, in a sense, has become a kind of tradition.

A legacy that continues to grow among comrades.

Looking at the way the people around him were looking at him, including He Ye's eager and expectant gaze, Shen Huang understood that they were contributing their manpower and resources, and even risking battle, not because he was the township head's guest, but more because of their desire for security and their yearning for a powerful spirit master.

For this small village, the more spirit masters there are, and the stronger they are, the safer it will be!

"Let the spirit-awakening ceremony begin." Shen Huang took a deep breath and began to prepare.
