"Wow!"
Guo Feilong suddenly exclaimed in surprise. He hadn't expected that the child Wu Yumeng bore him not only had a Spiritual Root but that the root's quality was of Earth Grade high quality, just a step away from the Heavenly Spirit Root.
For his other children who had Spiritual Roots, Guo Feilong would always enhance their root quality. Although this child's root quality was already high, he couldn't favor one over the others. Guo Feilong believed in treating all his children equally.
Moreover, when he married Wu Yumeng, he had received a large number of Auspicious Clouds, and when this child was born, tens of thousands of clouds were produced in the cauldron as well.
In the next moment, a large number of Auspicious Clouds flew out from the Family Fortune Cauldron, following his hand, and without anyone noticing, entered the child's body, heading straight for the Earth Grade high-quality Spiritual Root in the Energy Core.
It took a full twenty-seven thousand clouds for the child's root quality to reach the level of a Heavenly Spirit low-quality root. In the future, even without the Yang Essence Pill, this child would have an eighty percent chance of cultivating to the Golden Elixir Realm.
A Heavenly Spirit low-quality root, even among the Elemental Infant-level great cultivator forces in the Northern Borders Continent's cultivation world, would be considered a genius among geniuses. Even if born from a side branch, they would be nurtured as the future pillar of the entire family.
They wouldn't need to perform any tasks, and all kinds of cultivation resources would be prepared for them. They would only need to focus on cultivation without worrying about anything else.
Because those with a Heavenly Spirit Root not only have an incredibly fast cultivation speed but also face no bottlenecks in their cultivation stage before the Golden Elixir stage. Additionally, there is a twenty percent chance they could cultivate to the Elemental Infant stage.
According to Wu Yumeng and her sister, whether a cultivator can reach the Divine Transformation stage has nothing to do with their Spiritual Root quality. It depends on personal insight and opportunities. Even if someone with a low-quality root cultivates to the Elemental Infant stage, their chances of reaching the Divine Transformation stage are the same as those with a Heavenly Spirit Root at the Elemental Infant stage.
The Divine Transformation stage involves the transformation of the Divine Soul and is no longer just about absorbing Spiritual Energy and converting it into Mystic Power.
The Divine Transformation stage was too distant for Guo Feilong to think about. He was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage and was in no rush.
After all, as long as he had enough Auspicious Clouds, he could ignore any cultivation stage bottlenecks and would break through one hundred percent of the time.
For others, the Divine Transformation stage might be an unattainable dream, but for him, it was just a matter of time. Like a seed of a great tree, once it sprouts and grows in the soil, as long as no unexpected situations occur, it will eventually grow into a great tree.
"Husband, let me hold the baby." Wu Yumeng, lying on the bed, had already used her Mystic Power to sweep away the discomfort from childbirth. Her body was now just as it was before giving birth.
Guo Feilong, holding the baby happily, walked to the bedside and sat down, beaming with joy, "Guess what kind of Spiritual Root our child has? Guess optimistically."
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Hearing this, Wu Yumeng's face lit up with joy. The difference in life between a child with a Spiritual Root and one without was worlds apart. Without a Spiritual Root, a child might live to seventy or eighty years old and then naturally die of old age, while their parents, being high-level cultivators, would still be alive. It would be a heartbreaking situation for any parent to outlive their child.
Parents would be deeply saddened when their children die. Watching them grow from being held and pampered as infants to getting married and having children, and then seeing them grow old and die, would be distressing for anyone.
If their children had a very good Spiritual Root quality, they could cultivate, and their lifespan would be very long.
Looking at the son in Guo Feilong's arms, Wu Yumeng guessed with anticipation, "Is my son an Earth Grade low-quality root? Right?"
Guo Feilong shook his head, "No, no, guess higher."
"Better than an Earth Grade low-quality root." Wu Yumeng's eyes widened in surprise. In the cultivation world, a root reaching high quality was already considered very good. If it reached Earth Grade, it was already a genius.
"Could my son's root quality be Earth Grade high quality?"
Wu Yumeng guessed boldly, but Guo Feilong still shook his head, smiling, "Keep guessing higher."
Wu Yumeng's eyes widened in shock, hardly daring to believe, "Could my son's root quality be a Heavenly Spirit Root?"
"You guessed it right this time," Guo Feilong said, handing the child to Wu Yumeng with a smile, "Our son has a Heavenly Spirit low-quality root, with limitless potential in the future."
"My nephew has a Heavenly Spirit low-quality root!" Wu Xuemeng, standing by the bed, suddenly exclaimed, almost startling Guo Feilong and his wife.
"Sister, let me hold my nephew for a while." Wu Xuemeng, almost snatching, took the child from her sister Wu Yumeng's arms.
"Oh my, my nephew really has a Heavenly Spirit low-quality root." Usually composed and dignified, Wu Xuemeng was now as happy as if she had given birth herself, "Come on, dear nephew, give your auntie a smile, come on, smile."
"Sister, I haven't held him enough yet." Wu Yumeng said to her sister.
"Let me hold him for a while first," Wu Xuemeng said assertively, "You can hold him later."
"By the way, husband," Wu Yumeng, unable to do anything about her sister, turned to Guo Feilong, "We must keep our child's Heavenly Spirit Root a secret. If it gets out, it will definitely arouse jealousy from other cultivation forces in the Arctic Continent's cultivation world, and they might harm our child."
Guo Feilong understood what she meant. In the cultivation world, to weaken other cultivation forces, many would seize any opportunity to assassinate the geniuses of rival forces. Such occurrences were common in the cultivation world.
Many cultivation forces would hide their geniuses at home and secretly nurture them until they had the strength to protect themselves. The cultivation of geniuses by major cultivation forces involved not only the provision of cultivation resources but also more brutal training in combat and killing.
Foundation Establishment stage cultivators would serve as sparring partners, Golden Elixir stage cultivators would serve as sparring partners, and sometimes even Elemental Infant stage cultivators would take time to serve as sparring partners.
They also paid great attention to training the mindset of genius disciples. If a genius was raised to be foolish, they would be easily tricked and killed without knowing how it happened.
Those major cultivation forces put a lot of effort into nurturing genius disciples, teaching them various methods and strategies from a young age. Regardless of the genius's personality—whether arrogant, domineering, insidious, straightforward, or taciturn—they would be trained to be as cunning as a seasoned fried dough stick.
Wu Xuemeng and Wu Yumeng didn't know how their Wu family trained those pillar geniuses, only having a shallow understanding of the training direction.
At this moment, Guo Feilong gently stroked Wu Yumeng's hair and said, "Don't worry, the fact that our son's root quality is Heavenly Spirit low-quality will remain a secret between the three of us. We won't tell anyone else.
As for the cultivation of a genius child with a Heavenly Spirit Root, our Guo family has its own set of theories, and we don't need to reference the Wu family or other cultivation forces."
Guo Feilong chuckled, "No matter how talented the child is, they must start by learning the Three Character Classic I compiled. As long as their values are set right, everything else will fall into place."
What he meant by setting the values right wasn't about being chivalrous or shouting for justice but about teaching the children to respect their parents, get along harmoniously with their siblings, and never bully any of their siblings.
Over the years, Guo Feilong had visited many cultivation families as a guest. In those families, children with good Spiritual Root quality were often very arrogant, looking down on those in their clan with lesser quality.
To secure more cultivation resources for themselves, some genius children in the family would even act like bandits, extorting and intimidating their own clan's cultivators.
Guo Feilong didn't want anyone in his family to bully their siblings.
After spending more than two hours with Wu Yumeng, Guo Feilong returned to the Forbidden Zone to continue refining and creating alloy metals.
In the blink of an eye, another three months passed.
Guo Feilong's first flying Spiritual Instrument was finally completed.
