Chapter 12: Spirit Measuring Tablet Appears, Empty Spirit Roots

Li Guanqi saw this scene through his mind's eye and only felt that there was no point in letting this elder punish Zhao Yuanlin.

　　But he didn't stop it, he didn't care if it was meaningful or not, it was fine if he could beat up Zhao Yuanlin anyway.

　　The Thunder Whip fell, and instantly, Zhao Yuanlin's body instantly broke open, his flesh became charred and black, and even wisps of smoke emerged.

　　"Ah!!! Stop it! Don't..."

　　"By what right! Who are you to hit me!!!"

　　"Ah! Help, don't...don't hit."

　　Miserable screams resounded through the sky as Xu Zhengjie had whipped him seven or eight times.

　　"Zhao Yuanlin! So what if you're a Heavenly Spirit Root! Bad character, my Great Summer Sword Sect will never accept you!"

　　Zhao Yuanlin was lying on the ground the whole person's intake of air became less, but his eyes were staring at Li Guanqi in death.

　　Li Guanqi felt something in his heart and suddenly opened his mouth, "Since that's the case, why don't you elders let me test the spirit root."

　　After saying that, the teenager didn't forget to look at Zhao Yuanlin, who was like a dead dog on the ground, and said, "Don't you also want to see if I, a beggar, have a spiritual root?"

　　The reason why he wanted to do this was to completely stomp on Zhao Yuanlin's pitiful pride.

　　As for calling himself a beggar...

　　Li Guanqi didn't care about exposing these so-called 'weaknesses' at all, it wasn't a weakness anymore when he exposed his own weaknesses.

　　As long as I curse myself, you have nothing to curse.

　　Besides, in the cultivation world, strength is honored!

　　Meng Linhai was also silent at this time, Tian Jin Peak had lost a Heavenly Spiritual Root disciple.

　　Thinking back to the sect's training, his face gradually sank.

　　"Such a heart, don't want it!"

　　Xu Zhengjie looked towards the teenager who was staring straight at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Good! Test!"

　　"Today, even if you are a three lineage miscellaneous spirit root, I, Heavenly Thunder Peak, still want it!"

　　The teenager smiled faintly and slowly walked up to the Spirit Measuring Platform under the attention of all the people.

　　Li Guanqi took a deep breath, he also didn't know what his spirit root was.

　　After so many years, he could also feel that his grandfather Su Xuan was very, very powerful.

　　If he had a poor spiritual root, he wouldn't have made his grandfather go through the trouble of getting so many medicinal herbs.

　　There were many times when he saw the heavenly herbs in his grandfather's hand emitting fluorescence.

　　Holding that crystal ball in his palm, the entire square became silent.

　　Zhao Yuanlin tightly closed his lips, his eyes staring at the transparent crystal ball.

　　Light flowed from the crystal ball, and the eight colors of light were constantly changing.

　　This was a manifestation of which spiritual root was actually being tested, and it was the last color and whether the light was strong or not that represented how talented the person's spiritual root was.

　　Just as the crowd waited for several breaths, the light on the crystal ball gradually became sharper.

　　Bang!

　　An explosive sound rang out abruptly!

　　The crystal ball unexpectedly shattered with a bang!

　　For a moment, everyone in the square looked at each other in disbelief.

　　Zhao Yuanlin immediately pointed at Li Guanqi with a maniacal face and sneered.

　　"Hahaha! Waste! You are a waste!!!"

　　"The Spirit Measuring Bead is shattered, you're afraid that you don't even deserve to have a three lineage miscellaneous spirit root!!!"

　　These words immediately stirred up public anger, after all, there were quite a few people on this stage who were all three lineage miscellaneous spirit roots.

　　But there would still be quite a few people here who would be selected for initiation based on the performance of their spirit roots.

　　Meng Linhai's brows furrowed, and his perception of Zhao Yuanlin was poor to the extreme.

　　A golden light flew out between his raised hands, instantly sealing Zhao Yuanlin's mouth.

　　"Noisy!"

　　The Spirit Measuring Sphere exploded, and Li Guanqi also went cold in place, scratching his head in some embarrassment for a moment.

　　"That ... thing blew up somehow."

　　"No need to pay for it, right?"

　　Suddenly a group of elders looked like they remembered something, looking at each other they all saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.

　　Meng Linhai also froze when he saw them like this, his throat slightly squirming.

　　With a dry voice, he said, "You guys... shouldn't be thinking of that!"

　　Lan He immediately flew into the air and droned in a delicate voice, "Quickly! Go to Tianzhu Peak to fetch the Spirit Measuring Tablet!"

　　Looking at the elders of the peaks who were in chaos, all of them didn't know what was happening.

　　At this time, Outer Sect Senior Brother Zhou Zhi muttered under his breath, "Could it be a King Grade Spiritual Root above the Heavenly Spiritual Root?"

　　Jiang Su also had a shocked look in her eyes as she whispered, "Could it be true? It seems like there was only one appearance of a King Grade Spiritual Root twelve years ago after so many years, right?"

　　Zhou Zhi nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "That's right, that person is the current Eldest Senior Brother, the Sovereign's disciple Wu Bing."

　　"It is rumored that Eldest Senior Brother is in seclusion to break through the Jindan Realm!"

　　"If he can break through the mirror within three years, that would be a Jindan realm cultivator who is no more than in his prime!"

　　For a while the eyes of all the peak elders looking at Li Guanqi changed, among them, Tian Lei Peak's second elder Xu Zhengjie's eyes turned green.

　　Not a moment later, four inner disciples who had already built the foundation were seen carrying a pitch-black stone stele the size of ten feet in the air to the Spirit Measuring Platform.

　　The pitch-black stone tablet weighed thousands of pounds, and there were quite a few names engraved on it.

　　Looking at them one by one, there were none in there that actually wrote after the name.

　　''King Grade Spiritual Root!''

　　The name of the person at the top was very unfamiliar to everyone, but what was written after that name was not King Pin.

　　And this name, too, hadn't moved from its position for ten thousand years.

　　Li Guanqi naturally walked to the stone monument and pressed his hands on the location of that palm print stone inscription.

　　Buzz!!!

　　The stone monument trembled, followed by a ray of eight-colored halo appearing a hundred feet in the void.

　　Immediately after that, all the rays of light disappeared one by one, actually leaving behind only a touch of colorless white light!

　　Seeing this scene, the peak elders could not help but frown.

　　"Could it be that there really is no spirit root... why did that spirit measuring stone burst?"

　　However, this halo grew larger and larger until it enveloped the entire Great Summer Sword Sect in its entirety.

　　A huge halo with a distance of a thousand feet was suspended in the sky!

　　The dark stone monument was even more colored by that white halo at this time, and its body was milky white.

　　A mysterious voice appeared in Li Guanqi's mind.

　　"Name of the Spirit Measurer."

　　"Uh...Li Guanqi."

　　Buzz!

　　An invisible shockwave instantly spread out towards the surroundings.

　　The wave traveled all the way out for a hundred miles!

　　Immediately after that, the wind and clouds in the heavens and earth changed as countless streaks of colored light began to slowly rotate around the Great Summer Sword Sect.

　　The colored light was like countless colored ribbons, carrying all sorts of mysterious auras.

　　This heaven and earth anomaly completely shocked everyone, followed by one protective formation after another, so as not to attract others to covet.

　　Li Guanqi's name suddenly appeared at the bottom of the monument, and then the name began to climb all the way up, pushing the name of the first person on the monument!

　　In the shocked gazes of all the elders, Li Guanqi's name slowly crossed over the name that hadn't changed in ten thousand years and appeared at the very top!

　　A line of small words flashing with golden light appeared abruptly.

　　The voice of the spirit of the stone monument resounded through the sky!

　　"Li Guanqi, Saint-level Spiritual Root! Empty Spiritual Root!"

　　This sudden change left everyone at a loss for words, but there were also quite a few people with puzzled expressions on their faces.

　　"What the hell? Empty spirit root? Doesn't that mean there's no spiritual root? Can this even be considered a holy spirit root?"

　　"..."

　　However amidst the noisy chatter, Zhao Yuanlin's eyes were stagnant as he looked at the bland teenager on the stage, his face ashen.

　　However, ignoring the doubts of the others, the eight peak elders instantly surrounded the teenager in the center without regard for their faces.

　　Speaking in a chorus, they said, ''Pick fire! Choose the fire! The killing power is extremely high, and I can also teach you weapon smithing! Alchemy is also possible!!!"

　　Meng Linhai immediately became anxious and bumped away from the long-browed old man and said, "Get lost! The high killing power still has to be our gold system! Sword cultivators practicing gold system spiritual power is like a tiger with wings!!!"

　　"Pick Water! My Tianshui Peak is full of female disciples! It's easy to find a couple!"

　　"Pick earth! I...earth ... oops, I'll take you as a closed disciple! I'll pay you ten times as much!"

　　"Come to my Skywood Peak! I'll have the Peak Master accept you as a closed disciple!!!"

　　Suddenly!

　　A light coughing sound rang out, surprisingly, it was the previous Sect Palm Lawyer Qin Xian. Pen Literature

　　The old man said with a serious face, "It's not like the old man can't take in disciples."

　　But the Eight Peaks Elder at this moment doesn't care if you're a Palm Ruler or not, and directly said, "You haven't even received a disciple for three to five hundred years, so you can teach a shit!"

　　"Uh ... that Palm Law, to things not to people ah ... not allowed to give me small shoes in the future."

　　"Peak master! Peak master quickly come ah! Closed what closure shut! Sacred Spiritual Roots disciple! Late to come a step are gone!!!"

　　"Big brother! Quickly come out of the shutdown ah! Come to the Heaven's Gate Cave to snatch them!"

　　"Hey! What's the point of scolding me, come and snatch someone, Holy Spirit Vein!"

　　Immediately behind the Heavenly Sword Mountain peak, countless haze figures immediately swept in.

　　Li Guanqi only felt that his entire body was being gripped by countless large hands in a death grip, and his clothes were all torn to shreds for him.

　　However, right at this moment, a light reprimanding voice abruptly sounded!

　　The crowd instantly stiffened and hurriedly stood still.

　　Only to see a man in a green robe come with his feet stepping on a haze of light.

　　The visitor had a dusty temperament, sword brows and starry eyes, and a stalwart face.

　　It was none other than the Great Summer Sword Sect Patriarch, YuanYing Great Perfection Cultivator, Lu KangNian!
