Chapter 3

There is also a difference between acquired and innate in terms of life expectancy. Acquired masters have a lifespan of up to two hundred, and after birth, they can increase their lifespan by a hundred years, reaching as much as three hundred. If it is an ordinary person who does not even have martial arts practice, then he is safe and sound, and if he joins without illness or disaster, he will end at the age of 150.

It is conceivable that the innate martial artist is such an impressive existence for these furry children who have not seen the world!

Of course, if there are a few of these hairy children who can have spiritual roots and become hopeful people... When I look at the innate warriors again, it will probably be a different feeling.

The journey took two days, during which the congenital masters fell at the two ends of the convoy, flying slowly in the air, their postures indescribable and proud. Let the children of the Xu family in the carriage have those who are longing, those who are afraid, and those who are ambitious.

Because there were a total of 18 congenitals who came this time, it was very shocking, and there were no people who didn't have long eyes to come to rob the Dao. The journey went smoothly, and in the evening of the second day, all the horses let out a long neigh in unison, and it was the Denglin Mansion, where the Xu clan's clan was located.

At the gate of the city, the convoy stopped first. Because of the darkness, the gates of the city were closed.

A congenital who was pressing his head in front stood with his hands tied and said loudly: "The seedlings of the Xu family's Fenglin City branch have arrived, please open the city gate quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person flying out of the tall tower, and he was also a congenital! His eyes were like torches, and he swept in front of and behind the convoy. Xu Ziqing and some of the Xu family's disciples in the same car came out to look at the city gate. The strength of the congenital master is indeed extraordinary!

I just heard the man laughed and said, "Who is calling the door today?"

The previous Xiantian clenched his fists: "It turns out that Xu Qiao is on duty today, Xiao Han is polite."

Then Xu Qiao also clenched his fists: "The future generations are terrifying. Brother Xiao is young and has reached the innate realm, which is what makes Xu stunned."

Although Xiao Han was arrogant, he still had some courtesy towards Xu Qiao, who was also a congenital and a member of the Xu family, so he said, "Xiao has a priority, but he can't let the immortals wait for a long time, and he will invite my brother to drink another day."

Xu Qiao's expression changed: "Exactly, then Xu will go and have a good drink with my brother." Then he waved his hand, "Open the city gate!"

The gates of the city opened wide, and all the congenital gods fell to the ground. In the Landing Palace, there are countless people who are expected to be immortals, and they do not dare to board the sky at will.

The convoy entered, and then Xu Ziqing looked outside the car, and saw that all the way past, the ground was paved with bluestone, which looked extremely solemn. The roads are wide, four or five times better than Fenglin City. There are countless shops of all kinds on both sides, and many pedestrians walk silently or slash, and they all have martial arts!

Think about Fenglin City, compared with Denglinfu, it is really just a small place.

In the Denglin Mansion, on the best piece of land in the east, the mansion of the Xu clan's clan ran across it, occupying half of the sky.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the disciples of the Xu family were invited out of the carriage. At this time, everyone could see the Xujia gate clearly. It was not known what material it was made of. It was dozens of meters high and dozens of meters wide. This gate is clearly not worse than the city gate!

There are side doors on both sides, because this home is not so easy to enter. Except for those whose spiritual roots have been found, as well as VIP guests, ordinary people, etc., are not allowed to enter through the gate.

And even if they enter the side door, these furry children who have just arrived cannot drive in. In order to show respect for the clan, only walking.

While Xu Ziqing sighed in his heart the rules of these so-called "ancient" wealthy families, he walked with the crowd in a row. It took almost half an hour after entering the side door before walking to the front of a majestic hall.

It turns out that since everyone entered the side door, they have entered the Xu family's outer hall. This hall is the highest-ranking "Guanling Hall" in the outer hall.

The entire ancestral home covers an innumerable area, but it is divided into an inner hall and an outer hall. The inner hall is only accessible to the Xu family's children who are certain to have spiritual roots, and all the people in charge in important positions are the Xu family members. However, not all of the maids and the chores are listed here. Those who belonged to the small family who depended on the Xu family had immortal fate or scattered cultivators.

The outer hall is run by the Xu family who have no immortality. These Xu family members are responsible for running the business, and some of them have entered the Taoist way with martial arts and become acquired or innate masters. In addition, the warriors who are attached to the Xu family or those who have no immortality in the small family are responsible for the business of the outer hall and the protection of everyone's personal safety.

On the way from the side door to the main hall, a maid with a sweet smile specially introduced the situation of the outer hall and the inner hall to the children. Although the strict grades were not detailed, but everyone contacted the situation of the sect family that Xu Mengqian explained before, and in their hearts Those who have a plan are secretly cautious, but there are some who are fascinated by the magnificent scenery of the Zong family, but they don't notice it at all.

The Hall of Guanling is where the disciples of the Xu family want to test their spiritual roots. In this hall, there is a fifth-grade array that was once released by the ancestors of the Xu clan. It must be known that there are nine-rank arrays in the world, and the Xu family can have a fifth-rank array, which shows its profound background.

To maintain the operation of the magic circle, the Xu family has to spend an unknown amount of wealth. But once the magic circle is in operation, there is no need to pay any price to test the spiritual roots of those with Xu's blood. And if it's not from Xu's bloodline... the consumption of the magic circle will be doubled.

After entering the main hall, a middle-aged man strode out. It was the steward who was in charge of receiving the children of the Xu family who came to inspect Linggen in each period. He was quite powerful in the outer hall.

The maid who led the crowd to her retreat successfully retreated, put the person in the hands of the middle-aged man, and disappeared. At this time, the disciples were shocked to realize that the maid was also a master!

At this time, an elder spoke in the hall: "All the children, come and test the spiritual roots!"

This person is the Specialist Activation Act

One of the inner hall elders of the formation, who only comes out from the inner hall when the magic formation is opened, has a respectable status.

The disciples looked up and saw that the temple was incomparably majestic, with a height of several meters. There was a black moon hovering above the formation plate, shedding a little black light, which was extremely mysterious.

Everyone was dazzled and dazzled, and almost their sanity was taken away by the magic circle. Later, they came back to their senses when they heard a light cough from the elder of the inner hall.

Xu Ziqing quietly took a step back. He had never seen such a magical thing in the world he lived in before, which made him deeply curious, but also captured by the subtle breath leaked from the magic circle.

Seeing that the disciples were quiet, the elder in the inner hall turned around and shot a azure light into the black moon. The black moon swirled wildly, and the black light poured down like a flood. A black light curtain separated a space of two meters square.

At this time, the aura of the inner hall elder seemed a little sluggish, while the previous middle-aged steward took over the follow-up work.

He first said: "Xu Zi'an, go forward to check the spiritual root."

Among the disciples, a short and stubby boy with a simple and honest face immediately emerged. He took a few steps forward with some apprehension, entered the black light curtain under the gesture of the middle-aged steward, and closed his eyes nervously.

Xu Ziqing knew this person, he was a concubine of Xu Mengqian, but he had nothing to do with him.

The light curtain moved slightly, and then a head-sized white light spot appeared on the top of the boy's head, but the light spot was pure white, very calm, and there was no follow-up reaction.

The middle-aged butler shook his head: "If you don't have spiritual roots, retreat over there." He pointed to the open space on the left.

The simple and honest young man's face was slightly disappointed, but he quickly became excited and walked into the open space. He does not have spiritual roots, but it doesn't matter. After this round of screening, it is said that there are several elders in the outer hall who will come to look for disciples who can practice martial arts. If they can be favored, they can stay in the sect.

Then the middle-aged steward said again: "Xu Zishu, go ahead and check the spiritual roots."

As soon as he finished speaking, a pretty girl walked out of the crowd, wearing a goose-colored skirt and two buns on her head, very lovely.

This girl is Xu Zishu, who used to gossip with people outside Xu Ziqing's courtyard. She looks quite timid. Although she still looks shocked by the clan, she has basically returned to her former liveliness and her eyes are very smart.

She walked beautifully into the light curtain, her eyes full of anticipation.

This time the light curtain responded differently. A head-sized white light spot appeared first, but the next moment, the light spot vibrated, and a colored light beam the size of a little finger suddenly appeared on it.

Looking closely, the light beam is divided into three colors: gold, blue, and brown, of which blue is the brightest, and the two colors of gold and brown are slightly inferior.

The middle-aged steward's expression changed: "The three spiritual roots of gold, water, and earth are similar in thickness, and their aptitude is medium and low. Yes, go to the right and stand."

When she got this "good", Xu Zishu was overjoyed, and went to the right with a cheerful posture, and her expression also brought some pride.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen children were tested, and two of them had five spiritual roots and one had four spiritual roots. The aptitudes were all under and under, and they also went to the circle where Xu Zishu stood.

Then, it was Xu Ziqing's turn.

Chapter 4 Qualifications

I saw that on the big spot of light, there was a swirl of blue light, which was extremely light, as if it was an illusion, but when I looked at it seriously, it was really there.

Seeing this, the middle-aged steward was a little hesitant, and then looked at the elder of the inner hall. The inner hall elder pondered for a moment and said, "Go down."

Xu Ziqing felt a "squeak" in his heart, knowing that it was hopeless to go back. Thinking of the various colored beams of light that he had seen before, the more talented he was, the brighter the color would be. He had only a faint light like a light smoke, which was indeed far inferior.

It's just that now not only do they want to stay, but their qualifications are also of the lowest rank. After that, it can be said that the future is really uncertain.

He sighed secretly, and since he came, he was at ease, and Xu Ziqing didn't think about it any more.

There are four or five people left who have also tested spiritual roots, and one of them is also four spiritual roots, but one is thick and three are thin, and the aptitude is also low.

Therefore, this time, out of the twenty-three children of the Xu family who came from Fenglin City, a total of six have spiritual roots, which is quite good. Especially Xu Zishu and Xu Ziqian of Si Linggen, both of them are middle and lower aptitudes, and they are even rarer in the blood of the split family.

More than a dozen children without spiritual roots were led out by another maid and went to Jingwu Pavilion in the outer hall to seek the favor of warriors. If they still failed, they would arrange to stay for the next night and send them back to their respective homes in the morning tomorrow.

Xu Ziqing and the other five people followed the Neitang elders out of the Guanling Hall and entered the vast land behind. Elder Neitang gave a whistle in the air, and a bird of prey suddenly descended from the sky.
