Everyone’s Spiritual Root contains all five elements. But most tend to be skewed towards one element. Therefore, everyone chooses their Cultivation Method based on the element with the highest attribute of their Spiritual Root. Lu Ping’an’s Spiritual Root, however, was balanced across all five elements, each just reaching the status of Fifth Grade. With this attribute of the Spiritual Root, cultivating the "Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture," especially the "Five Luminaries Star Demise Sword Canon," would be quite effective. "Dad, what grade is my Spiritual Root?" Lu Ping’an looked at his father with curiosity and asked. He knew that Spiritual Roots were classified into nine grades. So he was a bit curious about the grade of his own Spiritual Root. "Hmm, your Spiritual Root is Seventh Grade," Lu Changsheng thought for a moment before speaking out. Although a Fifth Grade Spiritual Root didn’t seem high from his current perspective, Comparatively speaking, it was still quite high. So it was better to say a lower grade. "Seventh Grade." Lu Ping’an heard this, nodded his head, and showed no sign of disappointment. In his eyes, possessing a Spiritual Root and being able to cultivate was already very satisfying. His own father was only of Ninth Grade Spiritual Root, and through step by step effort, he had achieved his current status. With his own Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, what more could he ask for! As long as he worked hard, he would surely be able to make his mark in the Cultivation World! After resolving the matter with Lu Ping’an, Lu Changsheng did not widely publicize this affair. He merely mentioned to his wife, Lu Lanshu, that he just discovered that their son Lu Ping’an had a Spiritual Root. It either went undetected in his childhood, or the Spiritual Root was hidden; therefore, he was planning to take him back to Qingzhu Mountain. "What, Ping’an has a Spiritual Root!?" Read new chapters at freewebnovel Lu Lanshu was momentarily stupefied upon hearing this, feeling as if she had been struck by a pie falling from the sky. She knew her son lacked a Spiritual Root, so she had always wanted him to take charge of the secular Lu Family. But the boy wasn’t interested in that area, being a bit slow on the uptake, which gave her quite a headache. She didn’t expect that now Lu Changsheng would tell her that their son had a Spiritual Root. She felt an unexpected and delightful surprise. "Husband, are you serious..." Lu Lanshu covered her mouth with her hands and spoke with a trembling voice. "Of course, I am," "I’ll let Ping’an come back often, and then you can see for yourself," Lu Changsheng said softly. Lu Lanshu’s heart swelled with joy as she looked at her son and advised him to listen carefully to his father and to take in the words of Aunt Miaoge. She knew Lu Miaoge was the eldest young miss of the Lu Family and held a special status. If her own son could gain favor from several of the family’s primary wives, his life on Qingzhu Mountain would be better. "Mother, I understand, don’t worry," Lu Ping’an replied earnestly. "You’re grown up now, Mother won’t say anything more," Lu Lanshu looked at her son with a beaming smile, her heart filled with joy. She knew that Lu Changsheng had always been fond of her son. Now that he had a Spiritual Root, he would surely not suffer on Qingzhu Mountain. Moments later, she hesitantly asked Lu Changsheng, "Husband, since Ping’an has a Spiritual Root, could Ningjing, Anning, Anran... do they also have Spiritual Roots?" These were all her children. She had given birth to six children for Lu Changsheng. But none of these six children had a Spiritual Root. "Later, have all the children gather in the backyard, and I’ll check them over again," Lu Changsheng said after a moment of contemplation. The matter of Lu Ping’an having a Spiritual Root would definitely not stay hidden. He planned to take Lu Ping’an back to Qingzhu Mountain and telling Lu Lanshu was a sign he hadn’t wished to conceal it. With that in mind, it was best to recheck all the children in the family. Yet thinking of these children, he sighed softly, knowing they would have expectations but would ultimately be disappointed. "You’ve worked hard, husband," Lu Lanshu immediately said, hastily going to spread the news. Now that he was back in Ruyi Prefecture, Lu Changsheng naturally also took the opportunity to meet with Hong Yi and inquire about the situation of his son Lu Quanzhen. However, the Ruyi Marquis told Lu Changsheng that Hong Yi and Lu Quanzhen had gone out on a mission. And he would immediately have someone send a message to Hong Yi. The next day, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge, in the Lu Family’s backyard, rechecked the Spiritual Roots of all the children. But after the examination, no one else was found to have a Spiritual Root. This led to disappointment among those children and several wives. Seeing this scene, Lu Ping’an pursed his lips and felt a heaviness in his heart. He was almost certain that his having a Spiritual Root was the doing of his father, Lu Changsheng. Thinking of his father’s favoritism towards him, he felt an increased sense of heavy responsibility. ... Lu Changsheng stayed in Ruyi Prefecture for five days. Today, Hong Yi and Lu Quanzhen arrived at the Lu Residence, travel-worn. "Congratulations to Lu... Elder, for your breakthrough in Foundation Establishment," "Son pays respects to Father, congratulating Father on the breakthrough in Foundation Establishment!" Upon arriving at the Lu Residence, the two of them immediately bowed to Lu Changsheng. "Haha, Brother Hong, we’ve known each other for so many years, there’s no need for such formality," Upon hearing Hong Yi’s term of address, Lu Changsheng knew he’d received news of his own breakthrough in Foundation Establishment. After all, the Red Leaf Valley Market was near Qingzhu Mountain, And the Ruyi Marquis’s Mansion had shops there. Upon receiving such news, it would naturally be relayed back promptly. "It was I who was too formal, please don’t take offense, Brother Lu," Hong Yi said with a smile upon hearing this response, but his demeanor remained somewhat restrained and full of respect and awe. After all, this was a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator! He had never expected that the poor farmer’s son he once looked down upon would have achieved Foundation Establishment twenty-something years later! Once upon a time, the two of them, among six others, went to Qingyun Sect for the Immortal Sects examination. Three were admitted to Qingyun Sect, and three were not chosen. Lu Changsheng had the poorest Spiritual Root Talent among all. Yet now, this person with the poorest Spiritual Root had achieved Foundation Establishment, which truly made him reflect on the unpredictability of the world.
