Beauty and the Bodyguard

No matter how amazing a genius was, if they couldn't even reach the Golden core stage, they would only be of little value to the morning stars Academy, which was full of geniuses.

To put it bluntly, this kind of person was only talented. Either he was too young, or he lacked luck. No matter which one it was, it was a regret in the eyes of the big shots of the Morning Star Academy. Even if this kind of genius was recruited, it would take a lot of resources to cultivate him, and it was very likely that he would die halfway, losing both his life and his fortune.

This wasn't purely out of concern, but rather a real precedent. The morning stars Academy had once made an exception to recruit a number of extremely talented disciples, but their strength had not yet reached the threshold of the Golden core stage. They had paid a great price and spent a lot of money on these people, but in less than half a year, these talented disciples had all died without any exception.

At the end of the day, although the morning stars Academy sounded like an Academy and seemed peaceful, it couldn't escape the old saying: where there were people, there would be Jianghu, and where there were Jianghu, there would be rules. And this basic rule was that noobs below the Golden core stage were exempted.

Since then, no one had done such a thing. Even if they were recruited, it would only be harming others and themselves, so why would they ask for trouble?

Reaching the Golden core stage was the most basic threshold for the selection, just like how minors under the age of eighteen were exempted from entry in the secular world. As for the second selection condition, one had to have at least two spiritual roots attributes. This was directly related to one's cultivation aptitude.

From the beginning, Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao weren't surprised at all, but the next sentence stunned them.

Only those with more than two elements had a small chance of entering the Morning Star Academy. As for single element trash, they should not go and embarrass themselves. No matter how hard they studied and trained, cultivators with a single element spiritual root would at most stop at the nascent Soul Stage. It was extremely difficult to advance to the next level, and it was simply unrealistic.

"A cultivator with a single element spiritual root can only reach the original infant stage at most?" The two couldn't help but look at each other. To a certain extent, this could explain Wei Hebei's "if you understand, you naturally understand." However, whether it was Lin Yi or Huang xiaotao, they had never heard such an argument before.

The attribute of the spiritual root only determined the cultivation direction of the heart cultivation method and martial arts technique. Even if it was a single attribute of the spiritual root, it was not necessarily impossible to surpass the original infant stage, right? The following words in the booklet answered the doubts in their hearts.

Looking at the many cultivation realms, there was no need to mention those below the Foundation Stage. Even for the three great realms of the Foundation Stage, the Jindan stage, and the Yuanying stage, although the difficulty of breaking through each realm was more difficult than the last, to a certain extent, there was still a certain success rate. The reason was that these three realms could be supplemented by natural treasures to break through.

For example, the foundation establishment golden core, the Golden core golden core, and the nascent soul golden core could all play a crucial auxiliary effect during the breakthrough. It had become a deep-rooted concept for most cultivators that if one's strength was not enough, one had to make up for it with the Golden core.

In fact, many people placed the pursuit of heavenly treasures as their top priority and placed closed-door cultivation as secondary. This kind of reversal of order just explained the powerful effects of heavenly treasures when one broke through.

However, after the nascent Soul Stage, everything would be different when they reached the xuansheng stage and the mountain split stage, which were truly unfathomable and even unknown to the world.

It wasn't that all the treasures would lose their effects, nor that there were no corresponding elixirs, but that the auxiliary elixir for Yuanying stage cultivators to break through to the xuansheng stage was very rare!

It was one thing that the ingredients were rare, but the most important thing was that this pill was a Supreme seventh level pill-even a golden class seventh level refiner couldn't make it, only a legendary Mystic class refiner could! Mystic alchemists were legendary existences, and even if they did, they couldn't easily make the xuansheng golden pill for people.

Therefore, breaking through to the xuansheng stage basically depended on one's own strength. No matter how big and rich the morning stars Academy was, it was impossible for them to find someone to refine the xuansheng golden pill for these nascent Soul Stage disciples, so they were excluded.

At that stage, if one wanted to advance to the next level, they could only rely on their own strength and Foundation to achieve a natural breakthrough. So far, there was only one way to achieve a natural breakthrough without the use of medicinal pills, and that was to cultivate mental cultivation methods of two attributes, and at the same time, circulate and merge them together, and finally break through.

Apart from this, there was no other way to break through. Therefore, having two spiritual roots attributes was the most basic requirement to reach the xuansheng stage and the mountain opening stage. As for three or four spiritual roots attributes, it was easier to break through. In other words, one's aptitude was better!

This was what Wei He bei had said before. Whether one had two or more spiritual roots would directly determine the upper limit of one's strength. This was something that no one could change. The limit of a single spiritual root was the original infant stage. Unless one could find someone to refine pills, it would be useless no matter how good the natural treasures were.

"I have to simultaneously practice mental cultivation methods of two attributes, and only after they merge can I break through?" The analysis in the booklet completely shattered Lin Yi's understanding of the world.

Ever since he had ascended to the heavenly Dao realm, the world had been instilling in him the notion that a cultivator could only cultivate one heart technique. Although there was a chance to change it once after ascending to the heavenly Dao realm, it was a simple change, not the simultaneous cultivation of two heart techniques as mentioned in the manual.

More importantly, it also clearly stated that what needed to be cultivated was not just two mental cultivation methods, but two mental cultivation methods of different attributes. This was the key to breaking through.

Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder if training in two different elements at the same time really wouldn't cause Qi deviation.

However, on second thought, he had not even heard of the mountain-opening stage before. At that level, it was normal to not know many things. Just like when he was in the secular world, who knew what it was like above the heavenly path, and who knew how to cultivate?

Levels determined one's knowledge and experience-he'd gotten used to the things he'd found unbelievable back in the common world. Similarly, Lin Yi wouldn't be so surprised if he'd really reached that level.

"So that means I can only reach the original infant stage at most?" When Huang xiaotao saw this, she could not help but feel a little disappointed. Although she was not as competitive as male cultivators, as a cultivator who had always been diligent in her cultivation, she could not help but feel that it was a pity. (To be continued.)
