No matter how amazing a genius was, if they couldn't even reach the Gold Core stage, then they would only be of little value to the Morning Star Academy, where geniuses were as numerous as the clouds.
To put it bluntly, this kind of person only had talent, but was still too immature, or lacked luck. No matter which one it was, in the eyes of the elders of the Morning Star Academy, it was a pity. Even if this kind of genius was recruited, it would cost a lot of resources to nurture them. Moreover, it was very likely that they would die prematurely, losing both the person and the resources.
This was not purely out of apprehension, but there was a real precedent. The Morning Star Academy had once made an exception to recruit a few talented disciples, but their strength had not yet reached the threshold of the Gold Core stage. They did not hesitate to pay the price and spent a lot on these people. However, in less than half a year, these talented disciples all died, without a single exception.
In the end, although the Morning Star Academy sounded like an academy and seemed peaceful, it couldn't escape the old saying, "Where there are people, there is society. Where there is society, there is society. Where there is society, there is society." And the most basic rule was that rookies below the Gold Core stage were not allowed to enter.
Since then, no one had done this kind of thing. Even if they were recruited, they would only harm themselves and others, so why bother looking for trouble?
Their strength had to reach the Gold Core stage. This was the most basic threshold for the selection. It was the same principle as minors under the age of 18 in the secular world were exempt from entry. As for the second selection condition, they had to have at least two or more spiritual roots. This was directly related to their cultivation aptitude.
Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao weren't all that surprised when they read up to this point, but when they read the next sentence, the two froze at the same time.
Only those with two or more elemental Spiritual Roots would have the slightest chance of entering the Morning Star Academy. As for those with single elemental Spiritual Roots, they shouldn't go and embarrass themselves. No matter how much effort they put in, cultivators with single elemental Spiritual Roots would at most stop at the Nascent Soul stage. It was extremely difficult to advance to the next level. It was simply unrealistic.
"Cultivators with single elemental Spiritual Roots can only reach the Nascent Soul stage at most?" The two of them could not help but look at each other. To a certain extent, this could explain Wei Hebei's "those who understand will naturally understand". However, regardless of whether it was Lin Yi or Huang Xiaotao, they had never heard of this kind of argument before.
The attribute of the Spirit Root only determined the cultivation direction of the Heart Sutra and Martial Skill. Even if it was a single attribute of the Spirit Root, it did not necessarily mean that it could not surpass the Nascent Soul Stage, right? The following words in the booklet answered the two's doubts.
Looking at the many cultivation realms, there was no need to talk about those below Foundation Establishment. Even though the Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul realms were more difficult to break through, to a certain extent, they could still guarantee a certain success rate. The reason was that these three realms could be broken through with the assistance of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
For example, the Foundation Building Pill, the Gold Core Golden Pill, and the Nascent Soul Golden Pill, all of which could play an extremely crucial auxiliary effect when breaking through. If one's strength was not strong enough, they would have to make up for it with the Golden Core. This had already become a deep-rooted concept for most cultivators.
It was even to the extent that many people placed the search for treasures of heaven and earth at the top of their list and placed closed door cultivation at the second place. Putting the cart before the horse just so happened to illustrate the powerful effect that Heavenly Treasures could play when breaking through to the next level.
However, after the Nascent Soul Stage, there was a higher level. After reaching the Profound Ascension Stage and the Mountain Opening Stage, which were truly unfathomable and even rarely known to the world, everything would be different.
It was not that all the treasures of heaven and earth would lose their effects. It was not that there were no corresponding elixirs, but that the Profound Ascension Pill was extremely rare for a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator to break through to the Profound Ascension Stage!
It was fine if the materials needed to refine it were rare, but the most important thing was that this pill was a seventh grade pill. Even a seventh grade pill refiner of the Yellow Level could not refine it. Only the legendary Mystic Pill Refiner could do it! And Mystic Pill Refiner was a legendary existence. Even if there was one, it would not be easy to refine the Profound Ascension Pill for others.
Therefore, breaking through to the Profound Ascension Stage basically depended on one's own strength. No matter how rich the Morning Star Academy was, it was impossible to find someone to refine the Profound Ascension Pill for these Nascent Soul Stage disciples, so it was directly excluded.
At that point, if one wanted to break through to the next stage, they could only rely on their own strength to achieve a natural breakthrough. Up until now, there was only one effective method to naturally break through without the use of elixirs, and that was to cultivate two types of mental cultivation techniques and fuse them at the same time to finally break through.
Apart from that, there was no other way to break through. Therefore, having two Spiritual Root attributes was the most basic requirement to enter the Mysterious Ascension Stage and the Mountain Opening Stage. As for having three or four Spiritual Root attributes, it was easier to break through, which was the common saying of having better aptitude!
This was what Wei Hebei had said before. Possessing two or more types of Spiritual Roots would directly determine the upper limit of a person's strength. This was something that no one could change. The limit of a single type of Spiritual Root was the Nascent Soul Stage. Unless one could find someone to refine pills for them, it would be useless no matter how good the Heavenly Treasures were.
"You have to cultivate two types of mental cultivation techniques at the same time and fuse them before you can break through?" The analysis of the booklet completely shattered Lin Yi's previous understanding.
It must be known that since the beginning of the Mortal World, the concept instilled in him by the outside world had always been that a practitioner could only cultivate one type of mental cultivation technique. Although it was said that after advancing to the Heavenly Dao, there was a chance to change it once, it was only a simple change. It was definitely not the case of cultivating two types of mental cultivation techniques at the same time as stated in the booklet.
More importantly, it was clearly stated that what one needed to cultivate was not just two types of mental cultivation techniques, but two types of mental cultivation techniques of different attributes. This was the key to breaking through.
Lin Yi could not help but suspect that cultivating two types of mental cultivation techniques at the same time, would he really not enter a state of Qi deviation?
However, on second thought, he hadn't even heard of the Mountain Opening Stage before. At that level, it was normal for there to be many things that he didn't know. It was just like when he was in the Secular World. Who knew what was above the Heaven's Way? Who knew how to cultivate?
One's level directly determined one's vision and knowledge. Things that were inconceivable in the Mortal World were now common. Similarly, when Lin Yi suddenly heard of these things, he felt that it was unimaginable. However, if he had really reached that level, he would not have made a fuss about it.
"If that's the case, then I can only reach the Nascent Soul Stage at most?" Huang Xiaotao could not help but feel a little disappointed when she saw this. Although her temperament was not as competitive as male cultivators, as a diligent cultivator, she could not help but feel that it was a pity. Floating Astronomy.
