Chapter 374: Chapter 374: This Gun, Did You Forge It?

"Steward Zhu, spare my life!"

The two disciples at the entrance who were at the Foundation Establishment Stage immediately knelt down.

And the other outer sect disciples who were observing quickly retreated to the side to watch the excitement.

This was an internal matter of their sect and had nothing to do with them.

They just hadn’t expected that such pure spiritual power would turn out to be from a five Spirit Root waste!

Every person would have a Spirit Root.

However, some people are born with Spirit Roots that are not prominent and can never be stimulated to emerge, naturally preventing them from sensing spiritual power.

Martial Artists trained diligently in martial arts in hopes of improving themselves, refining from the external to internal, eventually stimulating their Spirit Roots and stepping onto the path of cultivation.

While for some people, Spirit Roots were visible, meaning they could directly engage in cultivation.

But Spirit Roots were mainly divided into five types.

Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The number of Spirit Roots one had determined the classification—single, double, triple, and so on.

Having more Spirit Roots was not better.

The more Spirit Roots one had, the slower their cultivation progress.

Because they needed to be cultivated simultaneously, dual Spirit Roots would require twice the time compared to a single Spirit Root, and triple Spirit Roots would require triple the time.

Thus, having five Spirit Roots naturally meant it would take five times longer!

Even with exceptional talent, a five Spirit Root individual could never break through the Foundation Establishment to reach the Core Formation Stage!

It was also because five times the time was needed that the lifespan of someone at the Foundation Establishment Stage was far from sufficient.

Hence, five Spirit Roots were also known as waste Spirit Roots!

In the explanation given by the two disciples at the Foundation Establishment Stage earlier, it was mentioned that cultivators with five Spirit Roots were not accepted!

This showed the extent to which five Spirit Roots were unwelcome.

"You have a chance to explain yourself!"

The expression on Steward Zhu’s face was extremely cold.

"Steward Zhu," Lu Chen hurriedly spoke at this moment, "it is my ignorance of Spirit Roots that led to their misunderstanding that I have triple Spirit Roots!"

He was not a good person, but he could not remain indifferent if others were wronged because of him.

If he could not join the Casting Gear Pavilion now, it would be fine. He still had the option of the Heavenly Pill Pavilion.

"Did I ask you? You, a five Spirit Root waste, dare to interrupt in front of me?"

Steward Zhu immediately exploded in anger, and his imposing presence intensified sharply.

Lu Chen’s knees went weak, almost making him kneel, but he reacted very quickly, promptly taking out his Mysterious Iron Spear and propping it on the ground!

"Eh? This is..."

Steward Zhu was immediately attracted by the Mysterious Iron Spear, and surprise colored his eyes.

"Boy, where did you get this spear from?"

With his artifact refining skills, it was clear to him that the spear was crudely made.

But it had undergone countless hammerings, compressing a great deal of Mysterious Iron to such a size, indicating that the person who had refined the spear had an admirable temperament!

Artifact Refining was extremely monotonous.

Especially during the hammering process.

Even among those with exceptional talent, hardly one in ten could endure the tedium!

Forget those with a single Spirit Root—they wouldn’t stand a chance with them, and not even the treasured dual Spirit Root candidates cared much about the Casting Gear Pavilion!

Why not cultivate spells instead of persisting in artifact refining?

This was also why the Casting Gear Pavilion, despite its great capabilities and deep heritage, could only be ranked as a third-rate sect!

"This... This is one I refined myself!"

Although Lu Chen was extremely angry, upon hearing the delight in Steward Zhu’s voice, he decided to give it a try, thinking he might just be able to join the Casting Gear Pavilion as a result!

"You? You can refine artifacts?"

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s words, a puzzled look crossed Steward Zhu’s face.

Just now, his Spiritual Sense had informed him that Lu Chen bore the aura of five types of spiritual power, indicating that he was indeed a five Spirit Root cultivator!

A five Spirit Root cultivator already had insufficient time for cultivation, and to engage in artifact refining on top of that was an even greater waste of time!

Could this young man have some unknown secrets?

Otherwise, just managing to forge Mysterious Iron to such a degree was no easy task!

After pondering for a moment, Steward Zhu made a calculation and then said, "Well then, follow me into the sect!"

With that, he reached out and with a gesture, Lu Chen was lifted into the air and flew into the Casting Gear Pavilion!
