Chapter 3: Spiritual Roots fusion?

Spiritual Roots allow a mortal to absorb Spiritual Qi and to become an Immortal cultivator.

Spiritual roots can be primarily categorised into five elements : metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Based on their quality spiritual roots with a mixture of four or five attributes are known as “False Spiritual Roots”.

Spiritual roots of two to three attributes are known as “True Spiritual Roots”.

Those with true spiritual roots will cultivate many times faster when compared to those with false spiritual roots.

Spiritual roots with only one attribute are known as “Heavenly Spiritual Roots”. These are the fastest ones of all. 

Spiritual roots that don't belong to any of the five attributes are known as “Mutated Spiritual Roots”.

For individuals who possess mutated spiritual roots, although their cultivation journey isn't as smooth, their cultivation speed is roughly equal to those with heavenly spiritual roots. Furthermore, if those with mutated spiritual roots are able to find a cultivation art that matches their attribute, they will undoubtedly be the strongest among their generation.

"Yu'er, come with me " Grandfather asked me to follow him as he began to leave, before leaving he gave a knowing nod to mother. 

I followed him out of the hall as I asked him where were we going.

"To my cultivation chambers, there's something I must discuss with you" 

Soon enough, we reached the cultivation chambers. Grandfather entered first and i entered right after, it looked like a normal room a bit  empty with a table and place to sit and a mat to cultivate on. 

"Take a seat" He gestured me to take a seat as he  sat down. 

"So, what did you want to talk about?"

"Ahem, yu'er do you know about the relationship between elements" Grandfather had an unusually serious expression on his face as he asked me this question. 

"Yes, I do....wood feeds fire, fire produces earth, earth bears metal, metal collects water, and water nourishes wood. " I recited the basic knowledge regarding the five elements with a troubled expression. 'Haaah... I know where this is going.. '

"That's right, and just like that some elements oppose each other, water and fire are mutually destructive—water will extinguish a flame, just as fire will boil water away to nothing. When someone has roots of opposing elements they are called conflicting roots. Under normal conditions we will try to remove one of the roots to avoid the conflict in elements, but in your case-"

"The fragments of dao make it difficult to remove the spiritual roots." I completed his words while interrupting him in between. 

"Well, it would have been difficult but still in the realm of possibility, but your spiritual roots have started to fuse"

"W-What!?!" I spoke in bafflement as I stared at my grandfather. This was something I never expected how could water and fire fuse they are supposed to extinguish each other. 

"Sigh...,due to the dao of life and dao of death being innately interconnected your spiritual roots started to fuse, water and fire got rid of each other and all that was left was dao fragments of life and death. Thus the fused part of the spiritual roots has become something like 'life and death dao roots' not completely but to some extent."

"Then doesn't that mean everything will be fine." 

"If only it was that simple, the fusion of your spiritual roots will most likely escalate with your cultivation but as you cultivate the clash between fire and water qi would most likely cause your death. Now that you know the problem what do you think is the solution to this problem? " Grandfather asked me with slight smile. 

'Haa... Is he testing me? '

"There are two primary solutions, 

Firstly, we can forcefully remove one of the spiritual roots. But this method would cause damage to one's talent.

Secondly we can temporarily try to stop the fusion while creating a strong foundation and a unique cultivation method that will help in the complete fusion of the spiritual roots, while also expanding the comprehension of the dao. " I answered with a visibly annoyed face. 

"Then which one will you choose?" Asked the bastard in front of me with a fucking grin! Ahem... I lost my cool for a minute there. Deep breaths, deep breaths....

"Obviously the second one, I'd rather die trying than to die after living a few years in disgrace." This time i had a resolute expression on my face. 'well Its not like I have much of a choice'

"Hahahahahahaha!!"the old man laughed maniacally. 

'Did the old fart finally lose it'

"Good, good as expected from my grandson. Well said Yu'er well said!!" 

"Grandfather you surprised me with that sudden laugh, I was quite worried about your mental stability." I said with the cutest smile I could muster. 

"Humph if it was anyone else who made such a rude remark their head would've no longer belonged to their body"

"How could you think of my genuine concern for your health to be a rude remark grandfather" I said with wronged expression as if I didn't mean call him crazy. 

"Humph"xin Dongyang rolled his eyes at his grandson's pitiful expression

 "anyways what should I do now? " I asked

"Well for now I would seal your flame spiritual root, while it won't be perfect due to the partial fusion it will do the trick. During this time I want you to use the dao of life contained within your water spiritual root to nurture your body and create a strong foundation"

"Body cultivation!?" My face's color started to drain as I remembered the masochistic ways of the body cultivators. 

‌"Yes you would need to cultivate your body and also learn sword techniques to utilize your relentless sword dao heart. After all if your body or will is too weak, your body and qi will explode like a watermelon thrown from the ninth floor of a pagoda"xin Dongyang said with a smirk. but I couldn't be bothered with his shit-eating grin as I was already quite troubled. 

'Why does it have to be body cultivation....sigh.....'
