Unlike the Soul Tempering Flower, which refined and purified existing spiritual roots by removing weaker mixed elements, the Spiritual Root Shaping Flower created a spiritual root from nothing.
Xiao Shou listened carefully, then nodded.
Using a heaven defying treasure like the Spiritual Root Shaping Flower naturally came with serious drawbacks.
First, the spiritual roots it created were inferior to innate ones, sometimes slightly worse, sometimes far worse.
It all depended on luck.
Second, the cultivators who relied on such artificial roots would find it harder to advance in their cultivation.
Again, the degree varied.
Third, their heavenly tribulations would become much more difficult and it was often far more dangerous than those faced by natural cultivators.
This depended largely on fate.
Even with such severe disadvantages, people still desperately sought the Spiritual Root Shaping Flower.
