Top Luck: Leading the family to cultivate immortality

Chapter 73 Spiritual Testing Conference (two-in-one please subscribe and vote monthly)

In the early morning of the next day, before the bright moon had completely dissipated, he should have been sleeping soundly, but the entire Qingfeng Town was brightly lit and very lively.

A large number of boys and girls were walking through the streets, rushing towards the center of Qingfeng Town.

A simple high platform was erected on the square in the center of Qingfeng Town.

Thousands of teenagers gathered together to wait, and a large number of boys and girls came here one after another.

Among the large crowd, there was a thin young man with firm eyes, disheveled clothes and dirt on his face, looking like a complete beggar.

In order to participate in the Spirit Testing Conference, he set out ten days in advance, walking alone for more than 20 miles every day, begging along the way, and suffered a lot before arriving in Qingfeng Town in time.

The thin young man breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed through the crowd of onlookers with difficulty, joined the long queue, and walked towards the center of the square.

As the number of people increased, the open square was overcrowded, and even the bluestone-paved roads were crowded with people.

Around the entire square, a large number of adults were standing by, including men, women, old people, and young adults, all anxiously waiting for the test results of their children.

As time passed, the number of people who came to test has exceeded 500, and there are also scattered teenagers joining.

Due to the good weather in recent years, the number of mortals in Qingfeng Town and surrounding small villages has increased significantly, resulting in more people attending the spirit testing conference than in any previous year.

Half an hour passed, the moonlight dispersed, and when a ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the entire earth, a solemn bell rang.

Everyone looked up at the attic in the square. A man in gray robe slowly walked out. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared on a high platform in the square.

Everyone in the square looked piously and paid homage respectfully.

Standing on the high platform, looking down at everyone, Lin Xingli looked calm, showing no emotion or anger.

"Everyone, get up. This spirit testing conference is hosted by me. I announce that the spirit testing conference has begun!"

"Everyone should line up. Those under ten years old and over thirteen years old should leave immediately. The remaining ones should abide by the order and should not make any noise. Those who gather to cause trouble will be immediately deprived of their qualifications to detect spirits!"

Lin Xingli's stern eyes swept across the crowd. The boy who was swept away felt as if his whole body had fallen into an ice hole, and his whole body was dripping with sweat.

After a while, more than 100 teenagers walked out of the crowd, all of whom were under ten or over 13 years old.

Seeing the speculators leaving, Lin Xingli ignored the people in the square.

He took out a silver-white, crystal clear stone from his storage bag and placed it on the stone platform in front of him.

The entire stone is about the size of a brick. It is a spiritual test stone used to test spiritual roots. It is a common stone in the world of immortality. Each piece is worth nearly a hundred spiritual stones, which is really not cheap.

It is said that among the sects, the spirit-detecting stones are more advanced and highly accurate, and can also detect monks with strange spiritual roots.

The spirit detection stones used by the Lin family are the most common ones, and there is a certain probability that they will be missed, but the probability is not high.

Place the spirit-testing stone on the table in front of you, pinch your fingers and apply several magic spells. A golden light sinks into the stone. In half a breath, the stone, which was originally like a dead object, rang several times in an instant.

After watching the surface of the spirit-detecting stone become smoother and more transparent, the ringing stopped and then returned to calm.

After making preliminary preparations, Lin Xingli pointed to a team not far in front of him and motioned to a young man standing in the front row to come up and test.

Seeing Lin Xingli's actions, the young man seemed to be in disbelief and froze on the spot.

After everyone laughed, they stepped forward uneasily until the young man behind them reminded them.

At this time, the young man was in a complicated mood and looked panicked.

Before the spirit testing conference started, I had been looking forward to the spirit testing conference being held as soon as possible. When the test really started, I was afraid that I had no spiritual roots and would completely miss the path to immortality.

I took a step forward with a feeling of apprehension. A few short steps seemed as difficult as dozens of miles.

I don't know how long it took, but I finally arrived in front of the spirit-testing stone.

With a hint of spiritual power, his voice spread throughout the square, and everyone could hear it clearly. Lin Xingli pointed at the spiritual stone in front of him and said.

"Just place your hand on this spirit-testing stone. For those who have spiritual roots, the spirit-testing stone will flash out in different colors, representing spiritual roots with different attributes. If no color flashes, it means that there is no immortal destiny. Just take care of yourself!"

Following Lin Xingli's instructions, the young man did not dare to delay, resolutely put his hand on the spirit measuring stone, and then eagerly observed the reaction of the spirit measuring stone.

Several breaths of time passed, but there was no movement on the spirit-detecting stone.

The young man's face suddenly turned pale, he withdrew his arm and left the square in a daze.

Lin Xingli's expression remained normal and he didn't say anything. He waved his hand to signal the young man behind him to continue testing.

More than an hour passed, and more than 200 people were tested in succession, but none of them could elicit any reaction from the spirit stone. Lin Xingli became a little disappointed.

Although it is not easy to give birth to offspring with spiritual roots, Qingfeng Town has a population of 10. With such a huge population, there cannot be no one with spiritual roots.

If this were the case, all my hard work these days would have been in vain.

The reason why I took on the spirit detection mission was because of the high rewards from my family. Every time I brought back a spirit root user, my family would be rewarded with ten points of good deeds. If I met someone with good talent, the reward would be even more.

Coming to this place with thin spiritual energy will delay more than ten days of cultivation, and you will have to travel hard. If you don't bring back a spiritual root user, you will be in a big loss.

Lin Xingli frowned and continued to observe the spirit testing conference helplessly.

Time passed slowly, and when it was almost noon, more than 200 people completed the test, but still no teenager succeeded.

Lin Xingli's face gradually darkened as he saw that a third of the boys and girls here had tested, but none of them had succeeded.

After a while, after only a dozen people had passed by, a girl with a bone age of 11 years old and a pretty face came forward.

In the attic around the square, a middle-aged man and a woman in gorgeous clothes were looking nervously at the girl on the stage.

This couple is the girl's parents. They have been local gentry for more than ten generations and are well-informed.

Many years ago, there was a monk among his ancestors. Therefore, he attached great importance to whether his daughter had spiritual roots. He always hoped that a cultivator would come out and return to Qingzhu Mountain.

The girl stretched out her snow-white palm and slowly placed it on the spirit-testing stone. Her beautiful eyes stared at the spirit-testing stone curiously.

In just an instant, four rays of light of different colors flashed on the spirit-detecting stone, among which the light blue light was stronger.

"It is the four spiritual roots, containing the attributes of metal, wood, water, and earth. Among them, the water attribute has the highest affinity. It is recommended to practice water attribute exercises for better results!"

Lin Xingli's words made the girl's father completely ecstatic, but the girl's mother burst into tears.

"Why are you crying, you woman!"

"Xin'er has regained the glory of her ancestors. How happy this is."

The girl's father scolded her, which did not quiet her down at all, but made her even more sad.

The girl's mother knew that her daughter's possession of spiritual roots meant that from now on, the two worlds would be separated from each other, and her flesh and blood would be separated, and she might never see her again again for the rest of her life.

Finally, a person with spiritual roots appeared. Lin Xingli looked much better. After explaining patiently, he asked about the girl's identity.

"Girl, what's your name? Where do you live?"

The girl seemed to have not recovered from her ecstasy, and stammered about her life experience.

"Returning to my ancestors, my junior Lin Xin, my ancestors are all from Qingfeng Town."

"Well, from now on you will be a member of the Tianzi generation of the Lin family, and your name will be Lin Tianxin. When the spirit test is over, I will enter your family tree when you return to the clan. You must remember it!"

"Yes!" After saying that, Lin Xingli took out a piece of animal skin, drew pictures on the animal skin with his fingers, and quickly recorded the girl's information.

Lin Xingli finally felt much better when the No. 1 person with spiritual roots appeared. He took Lin Tianxin aside and continued to pay attention to the spirit testing ceremony.

Unconsciously, most of the day passed, and the square that was originally crowded was no longer crowded.

In most of the day, more than 300 people have been tested, and only more than 200 people have not yet completed the test.

At this time, there were two men and two women standing respectfully behind Lin Xingli. One of them, a man and a woman, had four spiritual roots, and the other two had five spiritual roots.

The four people's faces were rosy and they looked excited, completely opposite to those boys and girls who had not failed the test.

As the remaining 200 people are tested one after another, there are only more than 50 people who have not yet been tested.

Looking at the remaining 50 or so people, Lin Xingli was not very interested.

Seeing that the spirit testing conference is coming to an end, it is basically certain that these four people should have spiritual roots in this spirit testing conference, no more, no less, a little more than the past few times, which is already good.

When there were still more than ten people left, a disheveled, thin and slovenly young man stepped forward and put his hand on the spirit-testing stone without hesitation.

Suddenly three strong lights flashed, attracting everyone's attention.

Lin Xingli was overjoyed and looked excited, and quickly checked.

Seeing the three powerful rays of light, Lin Xingli suppressed his excitement and introduced the thin boy's spiritual root attributes.

"The three attributes of gold, fire, and earth have good affinities. Especially the metal property, the affinity is extremely high. He is a good candidate for practicing metal skills!"

The thin young man had a calm look on his face, and there didn't seem to be much fluctuation in his heart.

"What's your name and where do you live?"

The young man did not panic at all and replied respectfully:
"Returning to the seniors, I am an orphan. My parents died young. I live in a small village outside Qingfeng Town. I live on the financial aid provided by the name of the village. People in the village call me Huzi!"

"Well, come here and stand behind me!"

Lin Xingli was very satisfied when he called Huzi to his side. He didn't expect to find a three-spirit root in Qingfeng Town.

There have been dozens of spirit testing conferences in this place, but no three spirit roots have appeared. In many cases, it is difficult to detect a single three spirit root in the five spirit testing places.

This boy has a calm mind, excellent perseverance, and his spiritual talent can definitely rank among the top ten among his clan members.

I originally thought that there would be no good seeds this time, but I didn't expect that I would get lucky in the end. When I returned to the family, I would definitely be rewarded generously.

With the completion of the last boy's test, the spirit testing conference has come to an end.

Lin Xingli smiled and gave instructions to the people in the square.

"This spirit testing conference is over. Those who have not tested their spiritual roots should leave quickly. Three years later, we will send dolls aged between ten and thirteen years old for testing."

After dismissing all the mortals, Lin Xingli looked calm and ordered the five boys and girls beside him who had successfully tested:

"You can go home now and say goodbye to your parents and elders. The family has a rule that you must reach the fifth level of Qi Refining before you can go down the mountain. This will probably be your farewell. In the morning five days later, we will meet in the square. I’ll take you back to your clan!”

"Yes!"

The four boys and girls respectfully paid homage and then left, leaving Hu Zi standing alone.

Seeing that Hu Zi did not move, Lin Xingli asked the thin Hu Zi:

"Why don't you get started?"

"If I go back to senior, I have no ties to this junior. In addition, the village is a hundred miles away from Qingfeng Town, and there is no time to go back and forth in five days. Therefore, junior does not plan to go back!"

After hearing Huzi's explanation, Lin Xingli stopped forcing it!
"Come in with me, rest here for a few days, and set off in five days!"

"Yes!"

Huzi answered respectfully and stopped talking.

Lin Xingli's instructions made most of the people who failed the test accept the reality and leave the square in an orderly manner.

There were still many boys and girls who had already taken the test, but it seemed that they had not yet accepted the result of the failed test, and they gathered in a corner of the square and refused to leave.

Lin Xingli put away the spirit-testing stones and put them into his storage bag. He looked at the group of teenagers who were unwilling to leave and shouted loudly:
"There is a difference between immortals and mortals. Don't force yourself and leave quickly!"

After saying that, he led Huzi into the hall without looking back and disappeared from sight.

Lin Xingli's disappearance forced the teenagers and girls in the square who were reluctant to leave to finally accept the reality and gradually leave.

Before entering the stone building, Lin Xingli ordered Lin Shan to settle down the tiger, and then entered the main hall to practice.

Lin Shan on the side saw that Lin Xingli attached so much importance to him, so naturally he did not dare to offend him and respectfully took Hu Zi away.

After some washing and grooming, Hu Zi, who was originally dirty, completely changed his appearance. Although his body was thin and malnourished, he looked quite handsome in rich clothes.

In the early morning five days later, in the lobby of the attic, Lin Xingli said goodbye to the tribesmen who guarded Qingfeng Town, and led Huzi out of the hall.

In the square, four boys and girls were already standing aside. When they saw Lin Xingli coming out, they quickly stepped forward to pay homage.

"No need to be polite, are you all ready? We are about to set off!"

"Ready!"

Lin Xingli nodded with satisfaction, took out a disease spirit sword, pinched his fingers and cast several spells. The three-foot-long sword instantly expanded into a three-foot-long sword and hovered in the square in front of him.

The five people behind him were completely stunned. Although they had heard about the abilities of immortal cultivators for a long time, seeing them with their own eyes was still very shocking.

Lin Xingli ignored everyone, took out five talismans from his storage bag, stuck them on the five people, and jumped on first.

The five talismans are called Qingling Talismans. They are first-level low-grade talismans. They are simple to make and of low value.

The Light Spirit Talisman can greatly reduce the weight of a mortal's body. By attaching this talisman, a mortal's body can leap several feet high. Even if he falls from a high altitude, his life will not be in danger. At most, he will be slightly injured. The effect is very good. magic.

There are many kinds of talismans with such special functions, such as the speed walking talisman. With such a talisman attached, a mortal can travel hundreds of miles a day, which is still much faster than walking.

If you accept the spirit detection mission, you can receive some talismans from your family. Otherwise, the five of them would still be just mortal bodies, and it would probably take several months to reach Qingzhu Mountain, which is hundreds of miles away.

After introducing the magical functions of Fu Min to the five people, he helped them jump on the sword until the five people sat down.

Lin Xingli pinched it with both hands, rose into the air, and flew towards the northern tribe.

Such a scene happened at the same time in the five mortal towns of the Lin family. The task of the spirit detection conference was completed, and all five tribesmen who performed the task had to rush back to the tribe with varying numbers of new tribesmen.

As the flying height reached tens of feet, the five people on the Spirit Sword were very frightened. Only Huzi quickly adapted and soon looked down at the beautiful scenery of the earth calmly.

"You don't have to worry. With the Light Spirit Talisman on me, I won't be able to kill you if I fall. Even without this talisman, I wouldn't be able to let you fall."

Lin Xingli's words of comfort finally dispelled the four people's doubts.

As half an hour passed, the remaining four people gradually adapted and observed the surrounding scenery with very excited expressions.

Huzi sat aside, looking forward to the day when he would fly alone.
