Chapter 65 Ascension (Please collect, please follow!)
On October 1st, Li Shiming left his home quietly before dawn, no longer wanting to see Si Qin's tears, who had cried last night until late before drifting off to sleep.
He activated the "Light Body Skill" on himself, first withdrawing the four surveillance probes.
If all went smoothly, he would not return for some time.
After deploying the "Invisibility Technique," he sped through Central Capital and then scaled the city wall to leave the city.
When he arrived at the base of Heavenly Altar Mountain, numerous carriages were already making their way towards the Heavenly Altar at the summit.
This Ascension Conference was to be held at the Heavenly Altar, where all the young individuals ready to have their talents tested, as well as Loose Cultivators aspiring to join sects, would gather today.
Li Shiming slowed his pace, observing the youngsters who curiously peered out of the carriages.
These youths all shared a distinguishing feature: their eyes were exceptionally spirited, yet their bodies were frail.
Generally speaking, at the age of twelve, those with talent would develop spirit root seeds, a process that requires a substantial amount of energy.
This leads to a significant energy deficit in the growing youths' bodies, generally resulting in their thin and frail appearance.
Furthermore, the fewer the spirit root seeds, the stronger the talent of the youth, and the greater the energy demanded by the spirit root seeds in their body.
Such talents, if born into affluent households, would generally fare well, but if born into impoverished ones, they might perish prematurely.
