A crack appeared on Xi Tianteng's origin energy seed, causing many people to lose their composure. In the beginning, many people thought that Xi Tianteng was about to fail, unable to endure any longer. However, they soon discovered that they were wrong. Xi Tianteng was about to succeed in his breakthrough. The origin energy seed was about to sprout.
Only after the origin energy seed had broken through could it sprout and grow an Origin Root.
As expected, cracking sounds constantly rang out. More and more cracks appeared on Xi Tianteng's origin energy seed. A while later, the cracks were like a spiderweb, densely covering the seed.
Afterwards, strands of roots extended from the origin energy seed.
These roots spread out, extending to various parts of Xi Tianteng's body.
The existence of origin energy, the roots of the Origin Root, took root in various parts of the body, covering it like veins.
Above the Origin Root was the vast ocean, connecting to the Cosmic Sea.
As for the soul, it would enter the Origin Root, borrowing the origin energy of the Origin Root to nourish and strengthen the soul.
As a result, the Origin Root was extremely important to Origin realm existences. Once the Origin Root was destroyed, the consequences would be extremely severe.
More and more roots appeared on Xi Tianteng's origin energy seed, extending to every part of his body. Afterwards, the origin energy seed slowly grew upwards, and an Origin Root slowly appeared.
The Origin Root seemed like a meridian, but it was actually completely condensed from origin energy. It was extremely tough, comparable to divine weapons. Generally speaking, it was very difficult to shatter.
Origin realm existences had a way to preserve their lives. Once their Origin Root was attacked and on the verge of shattering, cultivators could escape into the roots of the Origin Root to protect their soul.
This was because the roots of the Origin Root were rooted in the body. As long as the body was not completely destroyed, a new Origin Root could be grown through the roots in the body.
As a result, Origin realm existences possessed extremely tenacious vitality. Killing them was very difficult, unless the body was reduced to ashes or the soul was destroyed with lightning speed.
Although Origin realm existences could theoretically survive even if their Origin Root was destroyed, no one had ever tried it.
Firstly, once the Origin Root was destroyed, you might not be able to grasp the opportunity to escape into the roots with your soul.
Many people's souls didn't even have time to escape the instant their Origin Roots were destroyed.
Secondly, even if one's soul managed to escape into the roots and preserve one's life, if one's Origin Root was destroyed, it would be extremely difficult to regrow it. The amount of resources required would be astonishing, and it might even affect one's future cultivation path.
After all, monstrous geniuses who could break through and rebuild themselves were too rare.
As time passed, the Origin Root of the Heaven-seating Vine grew longer and longer, thicker and thicker.
In the end, it stopped growing when it was an inch long.
One could see that the Origin Root of the Heaven-seating Vine was a mixture of white and red. It looked like a beautiful piece of jade.
"Success! The Origin Roots that have just broken through are all one inch long. The Celestial Vine has successfully broken through."
"Impressive. To be able to successfully break through under the great Source Tribulation, he is truly a monster."
"I wonder what level the Celestial Vine's source energy is. It shouldn't be low level, right?"
"Nonsense. With Xi Tianteng's talent, his Source Energy can't be low level. It's at least mid level."
Many people were discussing this matter.
Origin Roots were also divided into different grades.
They were divided into low level, mid level, high level and peak level.
Before breaking through to the Origin Realm, the stronger the power one controlled, the higher the grade would be after it was converted into Origin Energy.
Of course, the majority of cultivators would have low level Origin Roots after breaking through to the Origin Realm.
This included many monstrous geniuses, even those who had broken through once or twice, but their Origin Roots were all low level.
It was simply too difficult to form a mid level Origin Root.
Only those who had broken through three times would have mid level Origin Roots after breaking through to the Origin World because the power they originally controlled was excessively strong.
For example, Xi Tianteng, who had broken through four times, would definitely have mid level Origin Roots after breaking through to the Origin Realm.
As for high level Origin Roots, it was even more difficult. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
It was basically impossible for someone who had just broken through to the Origin Realm to form a high level Origin Root.
Even four times would not be enough.
Of course, there were unparalleled monstrous geniuses who had broken through five times in the Great Desolate Continent of the previous epoch. As for whether or not they could do it, that was unknown.
As for peak level Origin Roots, it was simply impossible for someone who had just broken through to the Origin Realm to form one. It was simply impossible.
However, the grade of the Origin Root was not completely fixed. After breaking through to the Origin Realm, it was still possible to continue increasing it if there was a fortuitous encounter. It was just too difficult.
The higher the grade of the Origin Root, the greater the power of the Origin Realm.
There were many factors that affected a person's battle prowess at the Origin Realm.
Their cultivation base, the strength of their Genesis Arts, their divine weapons and armors, and the grade of their Origin Roots.
Of course, there was also their battle experience, battle awareness, and so on.
Their cultivation base was only one aspect.
Therefore, Lu Ming smiled bitterly when he heard that those at the early Origin Realm could move freely.
Some existences seemed to only be at the early Origin Realm, but their battle prowess was unbelievably terrifying.
Although Lu Ming might have broken through five times, it was still better to keep a low profile.
"It's too early for you to be happy. Xi Tianteng has only passed the first trial. Forming an Origin Root under the Origin Tribulation is the most dangerous part."
An old man said coldly.
Many people's expressions changed, especially the members of the Yin Vine Race on a cloudy day. They were even more worried.
When one's Origin Root was destroyed in a battle, one's soul could still escape into the root hairs, and there was still the possibility of growing a new Origin Root.
However, under the Origin Tribulation, the Cosmic Sea would not only devour the Origin Root, but also the root hairs. It would be truly uprooted without any luck.
Rumble!
At that moment, the rumbling in the void became louder. The Cosmic Sea seemed to be furious, and the terrifying pressure became even stronger.
The whirlpool spun rapidly, and then a terrifying devouring force acted on Xi Tianteng's body.
It had begun!
Everyone was shocked, knowing that the most critical moment had arrived.
If Xi Tianteng could not endure it, everything he had done before would be in vain, and he would die.
If he could endure it, his future would be bright. As long as he did not die, he would definitely become an immortal.
Buzz!
One could see that Xi Tianteng's newly grown Origin Root was shaking violently, as if it was about to leave his body.
"No one can take away my Origin Root, not even the Cosmic Sea!"
Xi Tianteng roared, and the aura of his entire body erupted. The Origin Force covered his entire body to resist the devouring force from the Cosmic Sea.
Under Xi Tianteng's full resistance, his Origin Root temporarily stabilized.
However, the rumbling of the Cosmic Sea became even louder, and it seemed to be even more violent. An even more terrifying devouring force erupted.
Puff!
Xi Tianteng's body trembled violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale.
