The Strongest Knight

Chapter 189: Opening the Mountain and Attracting Spirits

After communicating with Yan Xingyun, I had some understanding of the trial.

Zhao Qinghe waited patiently in Luoyun Town for the day of opening the mountain.

More and more people came to Luoyun Town, and Zhao Qinghe vaguely heard of a guy who called himself a prince.

The Liuhua Sect is not ranked high in the world of cultivation, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it is a true behemoth.

Because the time it takes for an idea to be produced can only be estimated roughly, one month is just an estimated date.

On this day, less than a month had passed, a strange light appeared on Tianlong Mountain.

At this time, Zhao Qinghe and Yan Xingyun were strolling on the street. Seeing this, they looked at each other, then rushed up the mountain with their knives in hand.

When the two arrived at the place where the strange light came from, there were already several Taoists holding whisks standing there.

There was a hazy halo on the side of the Taoist priest. This was the temporarily revealed entrance and exit of the mountain protection formation of the Tianlong Mountain Paradise.

Many people have already paid gold and entered the aperture.

Yan Xingyun greeted Zhao Qinghe, then strode forward, paid the gold, and walked into the light circle with ease.

Zhao Qinghe no longer hesitated, stepped forward, took out the gold given by Wuyinzi and handed it over.

The Taoist took a quick look and hid the gold in his sleeves.

"I am a talented person, and I hope you can become my fellow Taoist."

"Thank you." Although Zhao Qinghe knew that this was what the Taoist would say to everyone, he still bowed.

The Taoist priest stepped aside, and Zhao Qinghe walked directly into the circle of light without hesitation.

In a trance, the scenery in front of Zhao Qinghe's eyes changed drastically, and a strong sense of inspiration came over him. Even Zhao Qinghe, a mortal who had not yet embarked on his journey of cultivation, could feel the warmth and comfort.

Just as Yan Xingyun said, there was a mountain under my feet and a cliff a few steps ahead.

Opposite the cliff, on higher ground, is the gate of Liuyun Sect. It covers a large area and is filled with a fairy-like aura. From time to time, cranes fly by, and there are sounds of strange beasts crying at the bottom of the cliff.

Taking this step seems like the difference between immortal and mortal!

"Don't stop, cross the floating bridge, go up to the Lingjutai, choose a direction, and then wait for the opportunity." A young Taoist priest nearby said.

Zhao Qinghe bowed slightly to the young Taoist and walked towards the floating bridge.

This floating bridge is more than ten meters wide. I don’t know what material it is fixed with, but it is very stable and walking on it is like walking on flat ground.

About a hundred steps later, Zhao Qinghe arrived under the spirit gathering platform in the middle of the floating bridge.

The spirit gathering platform is about a hundred meters high, made of wood, and stacked up in a cylindrical shape.

There is a corridor on each floor of the cylinder, with stairs connecting to the next floor.

There are open-air caves next to the corridor where trial-takers can choose to stay.

Zhao Qinghe walked around the Spirit Gathering Platform and saw that Yan Xingyun had climbed to the middle level and was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Zhao Qinghe arrived relatively early. After thinking for a while, he found a cave on the same floor as Yan Xingyun and walked in.

The blessed land is an energy gathering point within a certain radius. Therefore, the power of heaven and earth within the blessed land will continue to increase.

The so-called inspiration is the material thing that is condensed when the power of heaven and earth becomes dense enough.

This gathering and birth process often lasts for several days, with the longest record being a month or so, and the shortest lasting seven or eight days.

As long as the trial-taker can comprehend the power of heaven and earth in this environment full of spiritual inspiration and guide a trace of spiritual inspiration into the body, he will have completed the first step in becoming a cultivator!

Zhao Qinghe didn't have to wait too long. The middle-aged Taoist Liu Juncai and several other young Taoists who were responsible for receiving people outside the paradise also came in.

The aperture then dissipates.

"Everyone, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is about to emerge. Please concentrate and calm your mind, and guide the spiritual energy into your body."

Liu Juncai and several other Taoists sat cross-legged under the spirit gathering platform.

It must be that the ascetics have a special way of sensing. Not long after he finished speaking, a gentle warm breeze suddenly blew around the spirit gathering platform.

The warm wind was in the shape of a tornado, swirling around the spirit gathering platform, and the wind speed continued to increase.

After a few moments, a ray of inspiration visible to the naked eye appeared in the wind.

As this ray of inspiration emerged, more and more inspirations began to hatch.

Some of the noble children who had been guided by capable people at home immediately began to get into the state, trying to attract spiritual energy into their bodies.

Although Zhao Qinghe had no one to guide him, he knew that this process probably only depended on one's talent for cultivation and did not require much technical content.

Therefore, I also closed my eyes and tried to communicate with the inspiration around me.

"Human beings are the product of the spirits of heaven and earth. Spiritual energy enters the body, just like fallen leaves returning to their roots. If you have a spirit, spiritual energy will come to you..."

Liu Juncai started to mutter below.

Zhao Qinghe didn't know what his talent for cultivation was in this body, so he could only give it a try to find out.

If one's talent for practicing Taoism is really low, one will have to find another way.

However, the path of cultivation is obviously the main body of this world, and the Yin-Yang Avenue that Zhao Qinghe is looking for only exists in the world of cultivation.

Taking a different approach cannot solve Zhao Qinghe's cultivation problem.

His luck in becoming an adult this time was already good, but Zhao Qinghe still wanted to pray for a little more luck. With the auxiliary system, even if he had only a weak talent for cultivation, Zhao Qinghe believed that he could reach the pinnacle of cultivation.

The spiritual inspiration that is visible to the naked eye can be easily triggered by a true practitioner.

However, ordinary people can sense them but cannot attract them.

If you cannot attract them, even if you hold the inspiration in your hand, you will not be able to let it enter your body.

Now, when Zhao Qinghe closes his eyes, he can sense the dense spiritual energy around him. This state is called the spirit-inducing state.

Rumor has it that some people are born with the body for practicing Taoism, and they don’t need to take the initiative at all, the spiritual inspiration will come to them and they will achieve the body of essence.

Zhao Qinghe obviously did not have the body for such a cultivation, and gradually he became immersed in the state of inducing spirits.

Only three hours later, Zhao Qinghe sensed a flash of inspiration quickly rushing out and entering the body of a young man below.

Someone has completed the spiritual inspiration!

The young man was obviously also surprised. He walked down the spirit gathering platform and came in front of Liu Juncai.

"Very good! His bone age is sixteen, and it took three hours for the first inspiration to enter his body. His talent is A-level!" Liu Juncai gave his comment.

"What is your name?"

"Liu Changsu." The young man said softly, neither arrogant nor humble.

Liu Juncai nodded to him and arranged for a Taoist priest to escort the young man around the Gathering Spirit Platform and towards the mountain gate opposite.

This was just an episode, and given Zhao Qinghe's state of mind, he was naturally not disturbed.

He continued to immerse himself in the state of spirit induction, trying to attract a spiritual inspiration into his body and embark on the door of Taoism.

At noon, I felt hungry.

Before going up the mountain, Zhao Qinghe prepared a bag of dry food and a bottle of water with him at all times, which came in handy at this moment.

Chew some dry food and continue.

Half a day later, another young man completed the spiritual inspiration entering his body, but Zhao Qinghe had no reaction for the time being.
