Couple cultivating immortality: My Taoist partner and I grew up through planting

Chapter 88 The real test is coming
Shi Yan didn't know that the ancestor of the Xiao family had so many inner dramas. After pondering for a while, he decided to tell the truth.

"Back to my ancestors, I don't know much about the situation of the Xiao family even though I recognized the child halfway. You asked the wrong person."

"Wait a minute, why did you say you recognized me halfway?"

After that, Shi Yan stated his life experience and everything he knew to Xiao Yi, then spread his hands and said, "That's all I know."

"That's enough."

It was enough for him to make sure that the Xiao family had not disappeared from this world. As for the internal fighting within the Xiao family, Xiao Yi had already lived for five or six hundred years when his spiritual consciousness was separated. As for the drama of the struggle, It has become commonplace. As long as it does not involve the life and death of the entire family, it is a trivial matter.

Fortunately, Shi Yan was recovered, otherwise he would not know that it would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse and the Moon before another child with such pure blood could enter the secret realm, and it would take a long time for him to know about the Xiao family's affairs in the outside world.

Although the child in front of him is not named Xiao, he is also a grandson of the Xiao family. If he has the blood of the Xiao family, he is qualified to test the bloodline.

"Since you have entered the secret realm and come to me, then go and accept the test." Xiao Yi said and waved Shi Yan away.

"Wait." Shi Yan quickly shouted to stop.

The hand raised in mid-air paused, and he looked at Shi Yan with puzzled eyes.

"Ancestor, can I go to the back mountain to pick some spiritual fruits and then accept the test?"

He had not yet filled the storage utensils on his body with spiritual fruits and brought them back to make spiritual fruit wine for Xinxin. After finally getting in, he didn't want to miss it.

Judging from his experience in his previous life, under normal circumstances he would be transported away after the test, and Shi Yan was worried that the same would be the case here.

How could Xiao Yi, who had lived for hundreds of years, fail to see that little bit of Shi Yan? Thinking that I couldn't eat those spiritual fruits hanging on the treetops, I couldn't let them go to waste, so I waved my hand and sent Shi Yan away to the garden.

Seeing his ancestor waving at him, Shi Yan thought it was his greed that had offended him, and he waved him away unceremoniously to test him. Unexpectedly, when he saw clearly where he was, he realized that he was just a villain and judged a gentleman. Feeling sick, he hurriedly shouted in the direction of the dilapidated wooden house: "Shi Yan, thank you, ancestor."

"I only give you one day. How much you can pick depends on your ability."

"Okay ancestor."

Shi Yan took out the flying talisman, input his spiritual energy, jumped up, and controlled the flying talisman to fly to the top of the nearest fruit tree.

The back mountain is very large, and it is impossible to pick every variety in one day, so the stone inkstones are picked with a purpose.

The spiritual fruits at the top of the tree grew best, were big and red, and he picked the best ones first.

Most of the spiritual fruit trees here are varieties that are not grown in Hanxin Space. Shi Yan will pick more spiritual fruits that are not available, and will not pick the varieties that are available in the space.

If the quality is low, pick less; if the quality is high, pick more.

Some spiritual fruits had no seeds, so he would break off a small branch and put it into a jade box, ready to take it back and try planting it in the space to see if it could survive.

Shi Yan knew that his every move in the back mountain was under the surveillance of his ancestor, so he did everything generously.

Shi Yan realized his idea, and he filled the storage bag with storage rings. In the end, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he picked a few and ate them in his hand.

Of course, he didn't forget his belly during the process, and would eat a spiritual fruit from time to time.

By eating a spiritual fruit rich in spiritual energy, he could skip meals.

However, Shi Yan was worried that his ancestor would throw him directly into the test of the secret realm later. Before dark, he still had a meal and then meditated.

Shi Yan, who was practicing, felt the familiar dizziness again. He quickly opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment. Shi Yan knew that he had been transported to the place of testing. It was a small, closed room with nothing in it except two doors opposite him.

This seemed to be a multiple-choice question. When Shi Yan was hesitating which door to enter, the voice of his ancestor sounded in the room.

"On the left side of the two doors is the martial arts. As the name suggests, it is a test of your martial arts. After entering, you cannot come out until the foundation building stage. On the right is the weapon. You must refine a high-quality spiritual weapon to pass the test."

Shi Yan: He is very confused. If his cultivation reaches the foundation-building stage, how many years will he be trapped in it? Xinxin will worry about herself.

As for weapon refining, he has not thought about the choice, because so far, he knows nothing about weapon refining.

Moreover, when refining a high-grade spiritual weapon, the cultivation level is less than the foundation-building stage, and the spiritual energy stored in the body cannot support its refining at all.

The cultivation level in the foundation building stage can only be barely refined, which is why his spiritual consciousness is higher than his cultivation level.

Xiao Yike ignored Shi Yan's inner tangle and continued: "This is not a two-choice question, but a must. Okay, you can choose which door to enter first."

Shi Yan knew that it was impossible not to choose. He only thought about it for a moment and walked towards the stone door on the left.

The stone door opened in response, and I stood outside the door and saw that it was dark inside.

Darkness prevents people from outside from exploring what is going on inside.

Stepping in, the scene suddenly became brighter. There was a large arena in the middle of the front. The arena was now empty.

At this time, Xiao Yi's voice sounded again, "Enter the ring and start your performance, young man."

Shi Yan: "."

This ancestor of the Xiao family may be a little abnormal in his mind.

Shi Yan took out the magic sword he usually used for sword practice, took a deep breath, and walked slowly towards the ring.

After entering the arena, Shi Yan discovered that he saw a small arena outside the arena. After entering, the arena became larger, more than five times larger. This should be due to the use of space formation.

At this moment, a wooden puppet appeared silently on the ring. If the puppet hadn't appeared in front of him, Shi Yan would not have noticed it.

The wooden doll stood still in place. This was a test, so Shi Yan did not move.

"Prepare for battle."

This voice was very familiar. It was the voice of the familiar ancestor of the Xiao family, but the sound it made was very stiff and had a metallic feel. It should not have been spoken directly by the ancestor himself.

"Three, two, one, start."

The moment the sound fell, the wooden doll opposite clicked and moved.

Shi Yan finally saw clearly the opponent's cultivation level. The seventh level of Qi training happened to be one level higher than him. Was this intentional?

Lifting the sword, the puppet on the opposite side also attacked him with his bare hands.

The two sides were back and forth, Shi Yan was a swordsman, had the ability to fight across levels, and had experience in the previous life, so he was quite capable in fighting, but he couldn't find the puppet's Achilles' heel for a long time.

Unable to find a weak point, the puppet still had the ability to attack him even with its arm broken. After Shi Yan broke a leg of the puppet, the puppet lay down. Even so, it still did not give up attacking Shi Yan.
