Chapter 20
Cloud Retainer, High-grade Wind Spiritual Root.
Mountain Shaper, High-grade Water Spiritual Root.
Moon Carver, High-grade Fire Spiritual Root.
Xiao, Top-grade Wind Spiritual Root.
After a round of testing, not one of the four immortals had a Spiritual Root level lower than High-grade, and they were all single Spiritual Roots.
Jiang Yan was wondering if Teyvat's specialty was cultivation geniuses.
If a proper large sect from the cultivation world found Teyvat and saw Zhongli and the others.
Wouldn't they go crazy with joy?
Zhongli, on the side, had originally felt that his so-called Heaven Spiritual Root seemed very powerful.
But then hearing that Xiao and the others were also so excellent, for a time, Zhongli felt that the Heaven Spiritual Root seemed nothing more than that.
"It's truly unbelievable..."
Jiang Yan looked at everyone in amazement and sighed:
"Teyvat is truly a place that produces geniuses. I originally thought that your talent, Fellow Daoist Morax, was already rare."
"I didn't expect that even you, Cloud Retainer, would be so..."
"Teyvat is truly an incredible place; clearly an existence attached to a middle-thousand world, yet it has so many geniuses."
"If the ancestors were still alive and saw such a world, they might have happily brought Teyvat under the control of Shushan."
"You would also at least be inner-sect elite disciples."
Zhongli was stunned.
It seemed that they were not common talents, but rather quite excellent.
"So, our cultivation talent is very strong?"
Cloud Retainer looked at Jiang Yan in confusion.
In her heart, Zhongli's Heaven Spiritual Root plus Ganyu's top-grade Spiritual Root should be considered good.
But they were all just High-grade Spiritual Roots; placed in that vast Shushan, they shouldn't be conspicuous.
But looking at Jiang Yan's meaning, their talent seemed very rare?
"Naturally very strong; you must not belittle yourselves."
"High-grade Spiritual Roots, placed in a large world, are also top-tier geniuses that appear once in hundreds of millions of people."
"Generally speaking, detecting a High-grade Spiritual Root qualifies one to be taken as a disciple by an elder."
"Top-grade Spiritual Roots are core disciples who are focused on cultivation."
"As for the Heaven Spiritual Root..."
Jiang Yan shook his head and said softly:
"That is a direct disciple cultivated as the next generation's sect leader. As far as I know, in the vast Shushan, there were only three Heaven Spiritual Roots, which were my three senior brothers and sisters."
"They were all geniuses who stepped into the Refining Spirit and Returning to Void realm at a young age, and the Master clearly stated that they would pass the tribulation and ascend within a thousand years."
These words from Jiang Yan made Zhongli feel a bit comforted.
It seemed that his talent could be considered one of the best in the large world.
Ganyu blinked and suddenly asked curiously:
"What about you, Jiang Yan?"
"Me?"
Jiang Yan chuckled.
"I am the Master's last disciple. After taking me in, the Master stopped taking disciples and focused entirely on preparing to pass the tribulation and ascend."
"No, I meant to ask, your Spiritual Root..."
Before Ganyu could finish, seeing Jiang Yan's somewhat profound smile, she stopped.
The last disciple of a super-genius master...
Clearly, the talent could only be better, not a bit worse.
Jiang Yan...
At a minimum, he was estimated to be a Heaven Spiritual Root.
Perhaps even an existence with higher talent that he had never mentioned.
Otherwise, when the accident happened, that ancestor would not have specifically sent him away.
The spark left by Shushan could not possibly be unable to even become an immortal.
Jiang Yan hadn't cared about his own talent.
But according to his deduction...
He no longer needed to calculate Spiritual Roots.
Strictly speaking, he had had his body reshaped by the Huangting Yujing Scripture.
He should be an Innate Dao Body.
Suddenly, Cloud Retainer noticed Shenhe, who had been silent beside her, and only then remembered that Shenhe hadn't tested her talent either.
Immediately, Cloud Retainer said:
"Jiang Yan, Shenhe hasn't tested her talent yet."
Jiang Yan was stunned and apologized:
"Sorry, it was my oversight."
After saying that, he pushed the mirror in front of Shenhe.
Shenhe calmly raised her hand and placed it on the mirror.
The next moment, an ice-blue light slightly weaker than that of Cloud Retainer and the others lit up.
Cloud Retainer felt a bit regretful; looking at this light, she probably guessed that Shenhe's talent was not as good as hers.
But Jiang Yan's expression changed suddenly, and he looked at Shenhe incredibly.
"Plain Yin Body?!"
"What?"
16. Shenhe's special constitution, you have to be careful of the Hehuan Sect
Jiang Yan did not rush to answer the doubts of Zhongli and the others.
Instead, his expression was somewhat solemn, and he said in a deep voice:
"Offense taken."
Before everyone could react, Jiang Yan appeared behind Shenhe in an instant and gently placed his palm on her back.
"Jiang Yan?!"
Ganyu was suddenly a bit anxious and was about to say something, but Cloud Retainer stopped her.
"Don't worry, Jiang Yan won't hurt Shenhe."
"..."
Ganyu was speechless.
Zhongli, on the side, sighed quietly.
This Cloud Retainer not only couldn't speak well, but she couldn't even read the room.
Was Ganyu worried that Jiang Yan would hurt Shenhe?
The thoughts of a young girl were all written on her face!
But it was a young girl's heart, so Zhongli couldn't say anything.
It was just...
He ultimately felt that it was hard to say about Ganyu falling for Jiang Yan.
According to Jiang Yan, he was seeking the Dao to become an immortal.
After becoming an immortal, whether he would still be in Teyvat or ascend to the so-called Immortal Realm was unknown.
He could only hope that Ganyu would not be sad.
Everyone quietly watched Jiang Yan's movements, and the golden-purple patterns between his brows flickered slightly.
A trace of purple energy bloomed at the point of contact between Jiang Yan's palm and Shenhe's back.
After a long while, a trace of joy appeared on Jiang Yan's face.
This made Zhongli and the others somewhat concerned.
