"There are special sections within the astral roots . These majorly allow spirit picking juniors in . No one is sure where these sections are, but most of the greatest treasures brought out of the roots were inheritances gotten by spirit picking juniors . " Ku Nam said and Ed turned solemn .
"So, elders hope to rope in as much spirit picking cultivators as possible . "
"But this also does not help, it is a matter of talent . " Ku Nam said and Ed raised a brow .
"Few, but a significant number of cultivators above the spirit merging stages have entered these special sections before . They too have been pulled in . " he explained .
"If it is a thing of innate talent, why are all spirit picking juniors dragged into this section?" Ed asked .
"My master once told me that an ordinary spirit picking junior can be molded into what ever the master wishes . After the spirit picking stage, many have burned potential bridges to pursue one martial path . " Ku Nam explained .
"The potential . Then the treasures in those special sections are inheritance treasures then . "
"Yes . That means that the other sections are good as well . Even better, it has nothing to do with luck . It has more to do with strength . If one is powerful enough, he can take anything away . And none of the treasure there are to be looked down on . " Ku Nam said and Ed nodded at his words .
"How do people leave?" Ed asked and Ku Nam broke into a laughter .
"You are probably the only person who can see the full picture . " Ku Nam said .
"It is not that hard to enter as it is hard to leave, is it?" Ed asked .
"Yes, and this is not mostly the work of the roots . " Ku Nam agreed .
"How?" Ed frowned .
"Sure, people are tested in the roots . There are dangerous things in there, people are bound to die . Only the worthy can leave with what they have taken, but . . . . " he said and Ed's frown deepened .
"When everyone leaves the sections they return to a central region . "
"Everyone in the same place, many will loose their treasures . Many would loose their lives . " Ed said . He recognized that the law of the jungle was the only recognized here .
"Taking inheritance treasures is harder than getting a normal treasure, but people still try . Most inheritance, when the host is dead, it would return to the astral roots special sections, but some can be taken out . But a majority of those taken out are demon treasures . "
"Demon treasures?"
"It is as though the treasures hoped to be let loose on the world . These treasures pa.s.s from hand to hand, land to land, leaving a trail of blood in it's path . They bring down empires and cause deaths, when they are done, they just disappear . " Ku Nam explained .
"Even with this kind of reputation many still try to take it out?" Ed asked .
"Greed . This is a fatal human flaw . Besides, there is not much to show that a treasure is a demon treasure . "
"I see . "
"Nevertheless, other hosts are killed just for killing sake . How can they allow such potential geniuses to step out into the world and step on their heads?"
"Jealousy . This seems more like the astral roots have no intention of letting these treasures out into the world . " Ed commented .
"You are right . Disciples turn on each other and blood of promising geniuses are spilled . Normal treasures aside, do you know how many great treasures come out of the great spill every five years?" Ku Nam asked .
"None . " Ed answered solemnly and Ku Nam laughed .
"Yes . All those variables mean that, in the past hundred years, only two known special treasures leave the astral roots and every five years, more than ten thousand cultivators die inside . "
