Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

Just after the Si hour, the Zhou family was already bustling.

There were rows of benches from the main hall to the patio, and many people were sitting there.

Zhou Ling and Yuan Hu borrowed benches from nearby neighbors, but they were still not enough for people to use.

Even some people who had no friendship with them at ordinary times sent gifts.

Li Ru was in a dilemma whether to accept or not.

Of course, since they were guests, Li Ru treated them with a smile.

Fortunately, they did not stay for long. After giving gifts and greeting, they said goodbye and left.

Li Ru did not want to accept gifts for nothing, so he gave them ordinary spirit wine as a return gift.

The wives of Xu Jiu, Chu Xing and other members of the medicine-hunting team helped Li Ru pick vegetables, wash dishes, and marinate animal meat after they arrived.

Becoming a Tiangong Guard was a big thing that had never happened in this area.

People's faces showed envy and surprise.

"Sister Ru, you will enjoy your life in the future. Brother Ling will definitely have a great future!"

"That's right. Brother Ling has been so intelligent since he was young. He can repair magic weapons at a young age."

"Yes, I have Lao Jiu's sword. He helps to repair it every year. The power is getting stronger and stronger!"

······.

Hearing everyone praising his son, Li Ru's face was full of smiles.

"Sister Ru, I want to discuss something with you."

"I have a niece, she is ten years old this year, at the third level of Qi training, she is very pretty, and her family runs a tofu shop."

"I think she is a good match for Brother Ling, and this girl is smart and good at business. She will help you run the wine shop in the future, and the business will definitely be very good!"

"Sister-in-law, Ling'er is only eleven years old, it's too early to talk about marriage."

"It's not too early. After leaving the Taoist temple, you have to make a living on your own, and then you will be an adult!"

"If Sister Ru doesn't like it, I can introduce another one to you, who is also ten years old, at the fourth level of Qi training, and has a good family condition!"

"Sister-in-law, you guys are busy first, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the beast meat is stewed?"

Li Ru was a little overwhelmed and could only find an excuse to go to the kitchen.

If it was in the past, she would naturally be more than happy for such a thing.

But now that her son is going to take the entrance exam for the Sixth Taoist Temple, there is naturally no need to rush to talk about marriage.

The men, on the other hand, were drinking and discussing things in the mountains.

Moreover, now that the Zhou family has abundant spiritual energy, the neighbors around like to come and chat when they have nothing to do.

Li Ru and his wife are also very hospitable. As soon as they come, they will treat them with good wine.

"Hey, Brother Chu was injured these days, and Hei Niu and his men took the opportunity to occupy our two areas. It's really abominable!"

"We are not their opponents now. We can only wait for Brother Chu to go into the mountains and then take them back."

······.

At about noon, after the dishes were prepared, they started to feast.

What surprised Zhou Shan and his wife was that this time, in addition to the neighbors, many other people came.

Master Lu, needless to say, every time there is a happy event in the Zhou family, he will come and give a good gift.

In addition to Master Lu, the shopkeeper of Four Seasons Building also came, gave a gift, and congratulated Zhou Ling.

It was just because the restaurant business was really hard to get rid of, so after sitting for a while, he said goodbye and left.

In addition, there was Instructor Fang from the Taoist Academy. He was also quite surprised that Zhou Ling could become a Tiangong Guard.

But thinking about Zhou Ling's level of refining, it seemed normal.

As a Taoist teacher, a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, he was able to come in person to congratulate Zhou Ling.

This also made Zhou Shan and his wife very grateful!

As a Taoist teacher, he was already a middle-level staff member of Lingxia Sect and a well-known figure in Lingxia Fairy City.

Of course, Zhou Ling was also surprised. After all, Teacher Fang was a man of few words and did not like excitement.

Normally, he would never participate in such festive and lively events and social etiquette.

After he came, he found a quiet place to sit and drink spiritual wine by himself.

In addition, Wang Yu also brought Wang Xin here in person.

This made Zhou Shan and his wife very happy. They knew in their hearts that their son's achievements today were inseparable from the help of Wang Xin and others.

Especially Wang Yu introduced Zi Ling as a master.

What's more, Wang Yu not only cured Zhou Shan's injuries, but also gave him a recipe for medicinal bath.

The effect was very good. Over the past few months, Zhou Shan's cultivation has made obvious progress.

And the materials for the medicinal bath are not expensive.

Therefore, they are also full of gratitude to Wang Yu!

Zhou Shan arranged Wang Yu, Wang Xin, Instructor Fang, Master Lu, Chu Xing and their family to sit at the main table.

This banquet included spirit beast meat, spirit rice, spirit fruit, spirit fish, spirit eggs, etc., and one table cost three or four spirit stones.

And there were six tables in total, more than twenty spirit stones.

This was already a huge expense for casual cultivators!

In addition, there was enough spirit wine, and it was good spirit wine.

Everyone was very happy with the good wine and meat.

The whole Zhou family was filled with laughter and joy.

Only Zhou Ling's table seemed a little calmer.

After all, Wang Yu and Instructor Fang were there, so Chu Xing, Zhou Shan and Master Lu couldn't drink freely.

Wang Yu didn't drink either, but Wang Xin clinked glasses with Zhou Ling from time to time.

Wang Yu loved Wang Xin very much, and usually let her develop without any discipline.

But Wang Xin sometimes stuttered when she spoke, so she didn't communicate with outsiders much.

It was rare to have a playmate like Zhou Ling.

Simply put, Wang Yu treats Zhou Ling well mainly to get Zhou Ling to accompany Wang Xin.

"Mom, how about I enter the late stage of Qi training, and we also hold a banquet to celebrate!"

Looking at the lively scene, Wang Xin couldn't help but ask her mother.

Wang Yu shook his head and said with a smile, "We will celebrate again after you build the foundation!"

For aristocratic families like theirs, perhaps building a foundation is just the beginning.

The meal felt like it was over quickly in the lively atmosphere.

Zhou Shan and his wife saw off their guests one after another.

Before Fang Jiaoxi left, he also told Zhou Ling to practice hard and not to slack off.

Entering Tiangong Division is just a new beginning in life!

Master Lu asked if he could tell his client his identity as Tiangongwei.

Zhou Ling thought about it and decided that it would be best for him to say goodbye.

After all, he is now working in the Tiangong Department, and others know that he is still making extra money in the Lujia Workshop.

This has a bad influence!

It might bring trouble to Deacon Qin.

Master Lu thought it made sense, so he didn't say anything more.

However, Wang Yu and Wang Xin had no intention of leaving in a hurry.

Wang Xin also helped organize tables and chairs and returned them to surrounding neighbors.

Li Ru made Wang Yu a cup of spiritual tea.

Wang Yu also drank slowly and waited for Zhou Ling to finish his work before calling him to his side.

"Brother Ling, you entered the Tiangong Division at a young age, which is very good."

"This is the gift I prepared for you, Zhenxia Hanquan."

As soon as he finished speaking, the storage ring in Wang Yu's hand flashed with light.

Immediately a green wooden bottle appeared on her jade hand.

"Zhenxiahanquan!"

"Thank you Aunt Wang!"

"It's just that this thing is too expensive, I...!"

Looking at the green wooden bottle, Zhou Ling looked excited.

In order to integrate the Qinglian fire to improve his cultivation and ensure safety, he naturally couldn't miss this Zhenxia Hanquan.

But a second-level spiritual object was worth a lot of money, and he couldn't help but feel sorry for taking it away like this.

But before he finished speaking, Wang Yu stopped and said, "Although Zhenxia Hanquan is precious, it is nothing!"

"Your first priority now is to improve your cultivation as soon as possible to ensure that you can enter the Six Avenues Monastery!"

"Thank you Aunt Wang!" Seeing Wang Yu's indifferent expression, Zhou Ling stopped being pretentious.

Now improving one's own strength is the key.

As for Aunt Wang and the others' kindness to me, they can only keep it silently in their hearts!

Wang Yu took a sip of tea, looked at Zhou Ling, and said slowly, "The fact that you can enter the Tiangong Division proves that you are pretty good at refining weapons."

"I think I won't suffer a loss in this Sixth Avenue Academy assessment."

"It's just that the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi training is still a bit low. After all, there are two rounds of this assessment."

"You have to get good results in both rounds to ensure you are in the top ten and to be admitted to the Sixth Avenue Academy."

"The first round is a skills assessment. We must ensure that we can successfully refine a first-level high-quality magic weapon within the specified time."

"In this way, we can obtain the first grade."

"With your current weapon refining skills, I don't think it will be a big problem."

"Of course, there are also bonus points in the skill assessment. As long as the quality of the magic weapon you refine is higher, the effect will naturally be better."

Having said this, Wang Yu picked up the tea cup again, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat.

"Aunt Wang, don't worry, I will do my best!"

He still has great confidence in weapon refining, and the most important thing is in actual combat.

The beast flames cannot be exposed in public, as it will have a big impact on his strength.

However, if the Green Lotus Fire Seed is fused and the Haoyang Fire Melting Technique is used, then it may not be that easy to see that it is Beast Flame.

And now I already have Zhenxia Hanquan in my hand.

It is only one step away from merging with Qinglian Fire.

Therefore, even if it is a bit risky, we must find a way to find the blood lotus.

After Zhou Ling had almost finished digesting it, Wang Yu continued,

"And in terms of combat power, you must also try your best to enter the quarterfinals."

"In this way, after the two rounds are combined, we have a chance to enter the top ten."

"This is the information of the top ten disciples who participated in the Six Avenues Academy assessment this time."

"I also asked someone to get it. You should learn more about it carefully, especially the four people from seven to ten. They will be your main competitors."

"As long as we defeat them, we can basically guarantee our entry into the quarterfinals!"

"That's how you can get this quota!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yu handed another jade slip of information to Zhou Ling.

"Thanks, Aunt Wang!"

Zhou Ling took the jade slip and thanked him again with a sincere tone.

Wang Yu nodded and warned, "There are still about three months left. Remember, you must improve your cultivation as soon as possible."

"As for cultivation, if you don't understand anything, just ask your master!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Yu stood up and shouted to Wang Xin, who was helping to wash dishes in the kitchen, "Xin'er, we're going back!"

"Okay, mother!"

Xin'er just walked out of the kitchen.

Afterwards, Li Ru, his wife and Zhou Ling sent Wang Yu and the others to the door.

"Ling'er, if you are successful in the future, you must repay Wang Xin and the others!"

Watching Wang Xin and the others walk away, and the three members of the family returned to the house, Li Ru warned Zhou Ling with a serious face.

"Mom, I know!"

Zhou Ling said with a smile.

He also helped his mother clean the kitchen, patio and main room.

Then he returned to the room.

Although this kind of banquet is lively, it is also very troublesome to clean up afterwards!

Zhou Ling felt it was unnecessary, but since his parents liked it, he had no choice but to accept it!

After calming down a little, he took out the green wooden bottle and opened it.

A sweet and refreshing fragrance spreads out from the bottle.

Zhou Ling couldn't help but take a deep breath, and immediately felt relaxed and refreshed.

[Your beast flame and spirit flame absorb the spirit spring energy, food spirit fire +1, beast flame and spirit flame grade +1]

"It's really a second-level spirit object!"

Looking at the bottle, Zhou Ling's face showed joy.

Two drops of bright water were flowing at the bottom of the bottle, and the water droplets emitted a glowing light like the sunset, reflecting the bottle brightly.

It's amazing!

Then, Zhou Ling put the bottle cap back on.

This Zhenxia Spirit Spring, not to mention the high price, is difficult to buy even for casual cultivators without connections.

Putting away the wooden bottle, Zhou Ling took out the information jade slip again.

His consciousness was invested in it.

His face became more and more solemn.

After a moment, his consciousness left the jade slip, and he frowned, muttering, "Li Yinfeng is actually already at the seventh level of Qi training, and is ranked eighth."

This jade slip lists the top ten disciples of Lingxia Immortal City.

It not only records their cultivation, but also the cultivation methods, and even some personal combat experiences.

It can be said to be extremely detailed.

Take Li Yinfeng for example, this boy is now thirteen years old and has entered the late stage of Qi training for more than a year.

It is said that sixty-eight spiritual points have been stimulated in his body, and he is only one step away from the eighth level of Qi training.

It is not even ruled out that before the assessment comes, he will use the realm-breaking pill to impact the eighth level of Qi training.

And the main cultivation method is the "Black Evil Art" handed down by the Li family's ancestors, a yellow-level top-grade cultivation method with powerful lethality.

In addition, he also worshipped Lingxia Sect sword cultivator Zhu Zixin as his teacher and practiced swordsmanship. His swordsmanship is also powerful, coupled with many other means.

There is more than an 80% chance of entering the top eight.

In addition, He Zijian's brother and sister are also on the list.

He Zijian ranked second, an eighth-level Qi training swordsman, and a first-class top-grade formation master.

He Lingyun ranked fifth, seventh-level Qi training, and a beastmaster.

The first place was a young man named Jin, Jin Sheng, ninth-level Qi training, and also a swordsman.

What surprised Zhou Ling was that Wang Xin was also on the list, but a little behind, ninth.

The information given was not very clear, mainly because he had a great advantage in alchemy.

As for combat power, there was no other information except for the sixth-level Qi training.

However, it was normal to think about it. Even Zhou Ling, who was with Wang Xin almost most of the time, had never seen Wang Xin take action, let alone outsiders.

"These children of aristocratic families, not only have high cultivation, but also have many trump cards in their hands!"

Zhou Ling carefully thought about the information in his mind.

Especially Li Yinfeng, not to mention a competitor.

It was because he beat Yuan Hu like that a while ago.

As long as there is a chance, he must pay the price.

"Black Evil Fist!"

"Qingyuan Sword!"

"This Black Evil Fist was used against Li Mu before, so I can enter the [Illusion Simulation] and fight him."

Zhou Ling murmured.
