“Hehehe——”
Lu Ping’an felt as if Tai Mountain was pressing down on him, his heart beating “thump, thump, thump” rapidly, accompanied by a sense of suffocation.
Moreover, the light within his body surged like a river, pervaded by an indescribable willpower that nearly crushed him to his knees.
But his father’s words, ‘hold on’, had him gritting his teeth and persevering.
Because from his childhood to now, his father had never spoken to him in such a serious tone.
This was the first ti his father had spoken to him with such earnestness, encouraging him to hold on!
Although his personality was straightforward, he wasn’t foolish!
He knew that if his father was bringing this up today, there must be a profound significance!
This was a trial!
A trial from his father!
Therefore, he had to hold on, and not let his father down!
“It seems, at most, a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root.”
Lu Changsheng watched as the light inside his son Lu Ping’an grew brighter and brighter, accompanied by a profound and mysterious sensation, he exhaled softly.
He could tell that Lu Ping’an was nearly at his limit.
“For a mortal to activate the Spiritual Root, a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root is already quite good.”
Lu Changsheng muttered to himself.
He knew that normally, activating the Spiritual Root with the Hope Gu would result in a Lower Grade Spiritual Root.
For Lu Ping’an to have a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root was already comndable.
Moreover, through the system, he knew that the true power of the Hope Gu wasn’t just to open mortals to Spiritual Roots!
But rather, as long as the host harbors hope, miracles can happen!
As long as the fire of hope in the host’s heart doesn’t die out, the Hope Gu can burst with power, stimulate potential, and fight for a glimr of hope!
No matter whether facing a hopeless situation, powerful enemies, or breaking through realms, it can have a certain effect!
Otherwise, a Sky Spirit Gu that can only open mortals to Spiritual Roots would seem quite ordinary.
“Hehehe——”
Lu Ping’an clenched his fists tightly, his cheeks and arms showing bulging veins like little snakes.
As the Spiritual Root evolved from Lower Grade to Middle Grade, the light inside his body expanded greatly, like a blazing sun, almost bursting forth from his body. ṙΆ𐌽О𝐁ЁⱾ
His bones crackled.
It seed as though his ridians and flesh were about to be destroyed, causing him to suffocate and making it extrely painful to breathe.
It seed as if if things continued like this, he would die!
At the sa ti, a gentle breeze seed to caress his body and mind.
Making him feel weary in body and mind, wanting to let go, to give up.
“Lu Ping’an!”
A girl in black appeared in his mind, shouting loudly at him.
It seed as if she was telling him to give up, to stop enduring.
The fear of death!
The instinct to slack off!
Began to engulf and pervade his heart.
“I can’t hold on any longer.”
His taut body and mind seed about to give up at this mont.
But as soon as this thought appeared, it was like a bolt of lightning striking Lu Ping’an awake.
No!
I can’t give up!
This is my father’s test!
I must hold on!
Hold on!
This may concern my fate in Cultivation!
Lu Ping’an bit down hard on his teeth and persisted.
In this mont, his deep longing and yearning for Cultivation were ignited within his heart.
Pain and lethargy, persistence and obsession, made him continue to struggle in body and mind.
“Hmm?”
Lu Changsheng, noting that Lu Ping’an was still gritting his teeth and enduring, was sowhat surprised.
Logically, achieving a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root should have been his limit.
Unexpectedly, he was still tenaciously holding on.
It seed his son had quite impressive willpower.
“Boom!”
A profound and mysterious pulsation spread.
He knew that Lu Ping’an’s Spiritual Root had elevated to Fifth Grade.
In that instant, the light within Lu Ping’an’s body exploded dramatically.
Making his whole being feel like it was bathing in a hot spring, warm and relaxed, his stress eased and pores dilated, expelling a layer of impurities from his body.
This process seed lengthy, but it was incredibly brief.
The whole thing lasted less than the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea.
“Father, what just happened?”
Lu Ping’an ca back to his senses, confused.
Looking at his own palms and at his father in front of him.
As if the previous pain and imagery were illusions.
Now his whole body felt light as a feather, extrely comfortable and full of strength.
He knew that his martial path had just advanced further.
From a recently achieved Innate Grandmaster, he had broken through to Innate Great Grandmaster.
That was the pinnacle of martial arts.
But he felt that what his father had just done for him wasn’t as simple as a martial arts breakthrough.
“It’s nothing, you actually have a Spiritual Root, it just wasn’t detected before.”
“Follow to Qing Zhu Mountain later.”
Lu Changsheng snapped his fingers, performing a Cleansing Technique, and cleaned his son’s body of all impurities.
He hadn’t expected that using the Hope Gu would also incidentally stimulate the potential within Lu Ping’an, taking his martial arts a step further.
Now, Lu Ping’an had reached the end of his martial path.
However, the strength of an Innate Great Grandmaster was quite ordinary.
Equivalent to a Cultivator with minor Body Refinent.
Only with an added force of Innate Gang Qi.
“What, I have a Spiritual Root!?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Ping’an was stunned, his face showing surprise and disbelief.
He hadn’t expected that he would actually possess a Spiritual Root.
But rembering what had just happened, he looked at his father and said, “Father, my Spiritual Root, is it because of what you just did…”
“You do have a Spiritual Root, when we get to Qing Zhu Mountain, I will teach you how to Cultivate.”
Lu Changsheng stood up, patted his son’s broad shoulders and said.
“Yes, Father, I understand.”
Lu Ping’an replied, pressing his lips together and speaking in a deep voice.
Although he didn’t know much about Cultivation.
He was aware of so things.
For soone to be given a Spiritual Root, it was an act against the natural order.
Today, no matter what, he possessed a Spiritual Root, although it hadn’t been detected before.
“Well, having a Spiritual Root of the sa elent is not bad.”
Lu Changsheng placed his hand on Lu Ping’an’s shoulder, his Divine Sense and Mana moving through his body to examine the condition of his Spiritual Root.
