Chapter 2 Blue Flowers
Since the family told them this news, it was naturally not just for fun.
For the huge Lin family, the spiritual root iron tree is a very common thing.
However, because it is extremely difficult for the iron tree with spiritual roots to ascend to the sky, the Lin family did not allocate one for each person without spiritual roots, and even added other conditions.
If they want the spiritual root iron tree, the family will withdraw the resources that should have trained them in martial arts until they successfully obtain the spiritual root or give up and return the iron tree.
For the family, such a decision is naturally because they don't want them to waste time on unrealistic things. Developing a force as early as possible is the right way to repay the family.
But they are all young men, so they should choose carefully, so they will not be scared away just like that.
Lin Chen was the first to choose the spiritual root iron tree.
Because without even thinking about it, he knew that the price of Qingmu Guo was not something he could afford.
His parents were only warriors. After they died in the family's pioneering war, he had to rely on the family clan for his survival. How could he expect the green tree fruit?
——
Lin Chen, who had replaced his spiritual root iron tree, also longed to be the lucky one.
But year after year, there was no movement in the iron tree, which he regarded as his treasure.
The peers around him gave up this unrealistic hope one after another and exchanged monthly martial arts training resources from their families.
But only Lin Chen remained unmoved, still longing for the moment when the iron tree would bloom.
When he was six years old, Lin Chen exchanged hope for the iron tree.
When he was ten years old, Tieshu showed no movement, which made Lin Chen's eyes gradually dim, but he still had no intention of giving up.
"The fire in your heart should never be extinguished, even if others can only see the smoke."
This is what he wrote to himself when his mind was slightly mature.
He doesn't want to live an ordinary life like everyone else.
Especially, after owning a cave...
…
His body gradually solidified, and Lin Chen looked at the palace with complex eyes.
This cave world was "discovered" when he was ten years old.
That year, the frustrated Lin Chen wanted to give up letting the iron tree bloom several times, and even the last time he had already walked towards the clan with the flower pot in his arms.
That day was also the day of the family's triumphant expedition. Lin Chen held a flower pot and looked at the soldiers who had returned triumphantly.
Because he went out late, he did not see the scenery of the front army, but saw the corpses at the very back.
At that moment, Lin Chen's weak mind underwent a huge change, and he looked at the corpses covered by white cloth without saying a word.
The enemy is naturally not qualified to be in the triumphant team. Even if they are dead, the identity of these people is self-evident.
At that moment, Lin Chen's mind went blank. He didn't come back to his senses until the victorious team completely disappeared from sight.
When he took steps again, Lin Chen held the flowerpot in his arms extra tightly.
It was also that day that ten-year-old Lin Chen wrote such a sentence to himself.
It was also after writing that sentence that Lin Chen's whole person underwent indescribable changes, but one thing was certain, his will was unyielding.
Then - he appeared inexplicably in this cave.
After careful exploration time and time again, he slowly understood the magic of this place.
First of all, he can enter and leave this space with just a thought.
Secondly, the quality and concentration of the spiritual energy in this place seems to be much higher than the outside world.
Finally, and the biggest secret he discovered, the land here can speed up the growth time of anything, and it will definitely survive.
This was the result after he planted many plants.
This discovery shocked him wildly.
Then his spiritual root iron tree made its home here.
——
Pushing open the tall door of the palace, sixteen-year-old Lin Chen breathed in the aura of this place intoxicatedly.
Over the years, by breathing the spiritual energy here, Lin Chen's physical strength has reached the level of fifth level martial arts.
This is a strength that even his peers who have given up their spiritual roots cannot achieve now.
Walking around, I came to an empty place. There was nothing around here, only an iron tree stood quietly in the center.
Looking at the budding flowers on the iron tree, Lin Chen Gujing Wubo's mood couldn't help but change.
"It seems that you will bloom today."
Lin Chen sat cross-legged. It seemed that he had no intention of leaving here before the iron tree bloomed.
A breeze blew gently by, making Lin Chen instantly nervous.
Looking at the Linggen Iron Tree, he saw that at some point, the Linggen Iron Tree had begun to wither visibly to the naked eye, but Lin Chen seemed to not notice it and stared at the blooming blue flower in the center of the iron tree.
"Is it blue? It's pretty good." Lin Chen had also checked many classics over the years, and when he saw the color blue appearing, he knew what it meant.
In just a few breaths, the Linggen Iron Tree turned into ashes, leaving only a fully bloomed blue flower floating towards Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's heartbeat quickened as he looked at the slowly floating flower, wishing it could just teleport over.
But the tense and numb hands severely "controlled" the trembling legs that wanted to rush directly.
"Hold on, I've been waiting for ten years, I don't care about this moment, I have to let nature take its course, let nature take its course, let nature take its course..."
Lin Chen swallowed and felt that he was very dry now.
Not long after, under Lin Chen's expectant gaze, the blue flowers floated to the top of his head, and then turned into large blue light spots and merged into his body.
For a moment, Lin Chen felt as if he was in a warm stream of water, being wrapped up very comfortably.
After a long time, Lin Chen opened his eyes, filled with surprise.
Raising his hand, a stream of water quietly condensed out.
"The blue flower represents the water spirit root, and it is true, and..."
With a thought, the water flow surrounding his hand instantly condensed into a cold ice edge, which was held by Lin Chen with one hand.
"The water spirit root is biased toward the ice attribute, which is good, good, hahahaha..."
When Lin Chen laughed heartily, countless spiritual energy from the cave sky rushed toward him and quickly merged into his body.
In just a short moment, the spiritual energy in his body reached its upper limit.
"Sure enough, after the warrior obtains the spiritual root, he will transform his original strength into the corresponding Qi Condensation Realm cultivation level."
Sensing the spiritual power surging within his body, Lin Chen said excitedly.
"I just heard that the conversion of power will cause the cultivation level to be slightly reduced. How come my cultivation level has improved?"
Lin Chen was a little confused when he noticed the fluctuations in spiritual power at the sixth level of his Qi training, but then he came to his senses.
"Others absorb it on their own, but the spiritual energy comes to me on its own. Is it because of this space?"
