Chapter 4: Genius with Two Spiritual Roots

It was already midnight when Lin Shiming stopped practicing. I don’t know if it was the effect of the battle or something else, but Lin Shiming always felt that his practice speed was a little faster.

There was a sound of drizzling rain outside the house, which made Lin Shiming think of a line of poetry, the rain on the street is as soft as butter!

However, the peach blossoms on Qingtao Mountain will probably fall again.

Lin Shiming opened the wooden window, and a few drizzles drifted in along the small comb window, bringing his thoughts to the spiritual peach tree in the distance.

The peach blossoms did not fall, but were washed by the drizzle, becoming more fresh and bright, less reserved, and more charming.

The whole night seemed more ethereal and beautiful.

In an instant, Lin Shiming felt as if his state of mind was washed by the drizzle and baptized by the peach blossoms.

Yes, Lin Shiming remembered that he had been in this world for seventeen years, and this was the first time he looked at the scenery with such a mentality.

When cultivating immortals, one must relax in moderation, and it is only right to relax and work hard!

"Knock, knock, knock!" There was a knock on the door.

"Master Immortal!" Then came a childish voice.

Lin Shiming released his consciousness, and saw a little girl in her teens with pigtails. Her face was somewhat similar to Wang Mazi, but she had bright eyes and white teeth, and a pretty face. She was holding a pot of wooden tea set, and there was a trace of hot steam coming out of the mouth of the pot, which was obviously freshly brewed.

"Come in!" Lin Shiming said lightly.

With the creaking sound of the door, the little girl lowered her head and sent the teapot to the table.

"Master Immortal, this is the tea for you!"

"Well, put it here!" Lin Shiming was not deliberately so cold to the little girl, but he found that the small comb window was facing the peach blossoms, and the rolled-up quilt on the bed also had patterns. Combined with the decorations in the room, this was obviously a girl's boudoir!

Wang Mazi is not an honest man after all. No matter what his motives are, he is a cultivator.

Lin Shiming waved his hand to send the little girl away.

He released the golden-winged mantis. After eating the spirit beast, the golden-winged mantis was obviously bigger, which was much better than eating the spirit water. It seems that I have to prepare some midnight snacks for this little mantis from time to time in the future.

"Squeak!" The golden-winged mantis flew to Lin Shiming's shoulder and rubbed Lin Shiming with its triangular head.

Lin Shiming took out the spirit beast meat, but the latter shook his head and refused.

After taking out the spirit water, he squeaked and drank it.

It seems that the golden-winged mantis is also a master with personality. After eating meat, he must drink soup.

After feeding the golden-winged mantis, Lin Shiming started to practice again, to see if he could take advantage of the faster practice speed to reach the peak of the fifth level of Qi training as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, the rain had stopped, and Lin Shiming still couldn't think of a good way to deal with peach blossoms.

However, at this time, the system prompt appeared again.

"Please check all the children, you will select a person with two spiritual roots for the family."

Lin Shiming's heart was in turmoil, thinking that the spiritual peach was a great harvest.

Unexpectedly, the prompt on the second day was a genius with two spiritual roots.

You know, although in this world, you can practice with spiritual roots, but spiritual roots also have good and bad advantages and disadvantages!

The worst five spiritual roots have no resources to defeat the heavens, and basically the middle stage of Qi training is his end. Four spiritual roots are slightly better, but it is also eighty steps to one hundred steps. Without a great opportunity, there is no chance to build a foundation. Three spiritual roots are ordinary, and he himself is one.

Only two spiritual roots belong to the level of little geniuses. Basically, as long as there is a foundation-building pill, you can steadily reach the foundation-building period.

And the legendary heavenly spiritual roots are even more against the heavens. As long as they don't die young, they are definitely purple mansion cultivators. With a little more opportunity, golden elixir can also be achieved.

Of course, aptitude cannot be said to be absolute. There are still people who use resources far more than dozens of times that of ordinary people to cultivate to a higher level!

There are only two second-level spiritual roots in the current Lin family among the more than 80 immortal cultivators. One is the old patriarch of the Lin family, Lin Xianzhi, and the other is Lin Shiming's eldest brother, the eldest of the Shi generation, Lin Shijie.

Not to mention the old patriarch, just his eldest brother Lin Shijie, who is less than 25 years old and has already reached the eighth level of Qi training. It is expected that he will reach the ninth level of Qi training before the age of 30. After a few years of polishing, he will be ready for foundation building.

In the Lin family, the family rewards those who discover spiritual roots. A five-level spiritual root will be rewarded with five spiritual stones, a four-level spiritual root will be rewarded with ten spiritual stones, and a three-level spiritual root will be rewarded with fifty spiritual stones.

And a genius with a second-level spiritual root will be rewarded with two hundred spiritual stones if brought into the family. If a genius with a second-level spiritual root is born, it will be rewarded with five hundred spiritual stones, which is equivalent to Lin Shiming's salary for ten years.

Of course, what Lin Shiming values ​​most is that the child will grow up to build a foundation and give back to the family in thirty years.

Lin Shiming does not believe in the concept of lone rangers. In his opinion, a lone cultivator is just a lone cultivator. Even if he obtains huge resources, he is just a nouveau riche lone cultivator. Without the reasonable operation of the family, it is difficult to go far enough on the road of cultivation.

Just like you can expect a lone wolf to be extremely fierce, but you cannot expect a lone wolf who cannot even afford three meals a day to become a strong wolf king one day.

Even if there is such luck, it is just a few lucky reckless men.

So developing the family and then developing oneself from the family is the direction Lin Shiming set for himself.

Lin Shiming did not delay. The two spiritual roots plus the spiritual peach tree were enough to attract the attention of the family. He flew directly to the town hall of Qingtao Town.

He called Lin Yang, who was still asleep, over and gave the latter an order to gather all children around ten years old and hold an ascension meeting.

After that, Lin Shiming flew towards Fangmu Mountain without stopping.

It took a day to rush back to Fangmu Mountain and explain the situation of the spiritual peach tree to his father Lin Houyuan. As for the second spiritual root, he did not mention it for the time being, because it was difficult to explain.

Lin Houyuan was also very happy when he learned about it.

After praising Shiming, he arranged for Lin Shiming to find his third sister, Lin Shiqi, who was a second-level lower-grade spiritual plant husband.

When he found Lin Shiqi, the latter was taking care of spiritual plants in the medicine garden on Fangmu Mountain.

She was seen with her hands on her waist, pouting her lips, staring at a second-level herb and studying it.

"Third sister, I finally found you!" Lin Shiming told the whole story of the green spiritual peach.

The latter waved his hand and said:

"I already know the matter, Uncle San has already said it, but Old Seven, you are so lucky!"

Lin Shiqi was obviously a little emotional and envious. For this spiritual peach tree, Lin Shiming had to pay at least an extra hundred spiritual stones, and she worked hard to take care of the herbs in the medicine garden, and only received a subsidy of three spiritual stones a month, which was only five spiritual stones a month in salary.

Of course, if she could break through to become a second-level middle-grade spiritual plant master, the treatment would be incomparable.

So Lin Shiqi's short-term goal is to break through to become a second-level middle-grade spiritual plant master, and then break through to the fifth level of Qi training.

"It's okay, Third Sister, as long as you promise to teach me the spiritual plant transplantation technique for a month, I will make you earn no less than a hundred spiritual stones!" Lin Shiming said confidently.

When facing the spiritual peach tree, Lin Shiming was a little helpless, and he had the idea of ​​learning spiritual plant techniques and alchemy.

He has system prompts, and some wrong techniques can be pointed out in the prompts, and with prompts, there will be no shortage of opportunities to find treasures.

"Okay, that's no problem. There are spiritual plant books in the family, but there are so many spiritual stones. You don't want me to help you fight and kill monsters, do you?"

"It's not a fight, it has nothing to do with strength! I guarantee you will be satisfied!" Lin Shiming repeatedly assured Lin Shiqi, and then he agreed.
