The Innate Spiritual Root was hidden in the depths of one's soul.
Generally speaking, even a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage would not be able to touch one's Innate Spiritual Root without affecting one's soul.
This was because once one's Innate Spiritual Root was touched, one's soul would be destroyed as well.
Unless there was a special technique that targeted one's Innate Spiritual Root.
However, such a special technique only existed in legends.
At the very least, Li An had never heard of anyone who possessed such a technique.
"Master, my current speed of sensing and absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy is slower than a person with a red Innate Spiritual Root! My innate talent seems to have vanished into thin air … Can you help me check if there's really something wrong with my Innate Spiritual Root? "
Gu Chun explained with a bitter expression on his face when he saw the disbelief on Li An's face. His heart was burning with anxiety as he spoke.
"What?!"
Li An was shocked when he heard Gu Chun's words. He could tell Gu Chun was not lying.
Moreover, he believed Gu Chun would not dare to lie to him.
"Don't block my Divine Consciousness!"
At the same time, Li An's Divine Consciousness extended and entered Gu Chun's body. His Divine Consciousness entered Gu Chun's soul.
As a Saint Celestial Stage powerhouse, Li An's Divine Consciousness was able to detect the location of the Innate Spiritual Root.
However, when his Divine Consciousness entered Gu Chun's soul, he did not find anything related to the Innate Spiritual Root at all!
In the end, he obtained a shocking answer.
There was no Innate Spiritual Root in Gu Chun's soul!
"How could this be?"
Li An's eyes widened in shock when he withdrew his Divine Consciousness. An expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
At the same time, his heart was in turmoil.
He was certain Gu Chun possessed an Innate Spiritual Root.
Not long ago, when Gu Chun had taken the innate talent assessment and tested his Innate Spiritual Root with his Spiritual Pearl, Li An was present as well.
However, his Divine Consciousness discovered there was no Innate Spiritual Root in Gu Chun's soul!
There were only two possibilities.
First, Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root was not in his soul but somewhere else.
Second, Gu Chun's Innate Spiritual Root was gone!
In Li An's opinion, both of these possibilities were extremely ridiculous.
Firstly, he had never heard of anyone whose Innate Spiritual Root was not in their soul. Secondly, he had never heard of anyone whose Innate Spiritual Root would disappear for no reason, especially when the person's soul was still intact.
Gu Chun's expression changed drastically when he saw Li An fall into a daze after exclaiming in surprise. However, he did not dare to disturb Li An.
When he realized that Li An was still in a daze for a long time, he couldn't help but call out, "Mas …"
However, just as he opened his mouth, Li An interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.
"Test it again!"
As Li An spoke, a Spiritual Pearl appeared in his hand out of thin air. It was the Spiritual Pearl used to test one's Innate Spiritual Root.
For some reason, Gu Chun's heart began to tremble when he saw the Spiritual Pearl. He even had a bad premonition.
However, in the end, Gu Chun gritted his teeth and extended his hand to press on the Spiritual Pearl.
In the next moment, Gu Chun held his breath and stared at the Spiritual Bead in front of him, silently waiting …
A breath of time passed.
Two breaths passed.
Three breaths of time passed.
…
About ten breaths passed. Gu Chun inhaled sharply as he stared at the Spiritual Pearl in front of him. He was already mentally prepared to receive a blow.
"Hm?"
However, Gu Chun was shocked to discover the Spiritual Pearl did not react even after ten breaths had passed.
"Master, this is …"
For a moment, Gu Chun thought the Spiritual Pearl was broken.
However, when he saw Li An had also placed his hand on the Spiritual Pearl, and the Spiritual Pearl shone with a green light after ten breaths passed, his expression changed drastically.
At that moment, Gu Chun seemed to have realized something in his heart. He roared in his heart, "No! Impossible! Impossible! Impossible! '
"If I'm not mistaken, your Innate Spiritual Root is gone!"
While Gu Chun was roaring in his heart, Li An spoke in a timely manner and gave Gu Chun the death penalty for his Innate Spiritual Root.
Boom!
Li An's words completely destroyed Gu Chun's last line of defense. Gu Chun's body turned limp as he fell to the ground.
"How did this happen?
How did this happen?
My Innate Spiritual Root is gone! I'm crippled! I'm crippled! "
After collapsing to the ground, Gu Chun let out a low roar of despair. His eyes were filled with unwillingness.
"What happened to your Innate Spiritual Root? How did it disappear just like that? "
Gu Chun finally calmed down when he heard Li An's voice.
After he calmed down, Duan Lingtian appeared in his mind again. He gritted his teeth as he said, "It's Duan Lingtian! It's him! He destroyed my Innate Spiritual Root! "
Gu Chun was shouting when he reached the end of his sentence.
Li An thought Gu Chun had lost his Innate Spiritual Root due to an accident.
However, when he heard Gu Chun's words, he knew he was wrong. His expression changed drastically as he asked in disbelief, "Duan Lingtian?"
"It's him! It's him who destroyed my Innate Spiritual Root! "
Gu Chun shouted as he rushed forward and hugged Li An's leg. It was as though he was clutching at a straw. "Master, you must avenge me! You must avenge me! "
"I want Duan Lingtian dead! I want him dead! I want to tear him into a million pieces and burn his bones to ashes! I want to capture his two companions and feed their flesh to the dogs! "
Gu Chun continued to shout as though he was venting the pain of losing his Innate Spiritual Root.
Losing one's Innate Spiritual Root was equivalent to cutting off one's cultivation path.
With his current innate talent that was not even comparable to someone with a red Innate Spiritual Root, he was destined to remain at the Early Exemplary Saint Stage forever.
How could he accept such a thought?
"What happened? Tell me! "
Li An asked in a deep voice. His voice was not loud, but it seemed to contain a great deal of power. It easily drowned out Gu Chun's shouting, causing Gu Chun to fall silent.
"Master, Duan Lingtian …"
Soon after, Gu Chun told Li An everything that he had learned from the few new disciples.
Apart from that, he also told Li An when he had passed out.
"It's obvious he's up to something by blocking everyone's sight. This must have something to do with the disappearance of my Innate Spiritual Root!"
Gu Chun added through gritted teeth after he finished telling Li An everything.
"You're right. It seems like the disappearance of your Innate Spiritual Root must have something to do with Duan Lingtian!"
Li An's eyes flashed coldly with killing intent.
"Master, you must avenge me!"
Gu Chun looked at Li An with a sorrowful expression. His eyes were filled with pleading and anticipation.
"Don't worry! As long as we can confirm that Duan Lingtian was the one who destroyed your Innate Spiritual Root, he'll definitely die! "
Li An said coldly.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Gu Chun could not help but frown when he heard Li An's words.
However, as soon as his words left his mouth, he felt his arms and legs become lighter. He was brought away from the eastern side of the Black Turtle Sanctum by Li An. They headed to the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples in the west.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Li An shouted furiously when they were still some distance away from the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples.
A voice filled with anger and rolling power swept out like a thunderclap.
In just a blink of an eye, it covered the entire residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples.
All the disciples in the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples who were not in closed-door cultivation were instantly alerted.
Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples walked out of the thatched cottages at the bottom of the Ding house. From afar, there were at least a few thousand of them.
At this moment, many Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples also walked out of the Bing house at the top. There were at least a few hundred of them.
Dozens of people also walked out of the Bing house at the top.
As for the Primus house at the top, there was no movement for the time being.
"What's going on?"
"Who did Duan Lingtian offend again?"
"Why does this voice sound familiar?"
…
Since only Li An's voice could be heard, the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples who had just walked out of their residences were confused as to what was going on.
"I can tell! It's Elder Li An's voice! "
A Black Turtle Sanctum's disciple who walked out of the Bing house seemed to have recalled something. His eyes lit up as he exclaimed in surprise.
Although his voice was not loud, it still alerted many people in the surroundings.
One spread to ten, ten to a hundred, and a hundred to a thousand.
After a while, all the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples who walked out of their residences knew who the voice belonged to. It was none other than their Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder, Li An!
Li An's status in the Black Turtle Sanctum was only second to the Sanctum Leader.
"What did Duan Lingtian do again? Elder Li An actually came to look for him! "
Many Black Turtle Sanctum's senior disciples looked at each other in shock.
They did not expect the new disciple to be so valiant. He had just entered the Black Turtle Sanctum, but he had already offended the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder, Li An.
"Since Elder Li An came to look for him personally, it must be something serious. It seems like Duan Lingtian is in for a bad time!"
Many Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples thought so.
After a while, Li An appeared with Gu Chun under the watchful eyes of the others.
At this moment, Li An had already put Gu Chun down and allowed him to follow behind him.
Although Gu Chun was following behind Li An, his eyes were filled with hatred as he stared at one of the thousands of Tertius houses.
This Bing house was the house that Duan Lingtian, whom he wanted to kill, had taken away from him!
"Li An?"
