Chapter 13 Remembrance
Looking at this scene in front of him, Ling Youdao thought of nine years ago.
It was also a sunny morning, and Ling Yuansheng took him, who was just over ten years old, to Shengxian Valley to test his spiritual roots.
Every Qi-training disciple in Shengxian Valley would salute when they saw Ling Yuansheng, which immediately attracted the attention of nearly ten thousand children. They all curiously looked at Ling Yuansheng and the child he was holding.
Those eyes are full of envy!
However, Ling Youdao was not in the same mood as them.
A few days ago, Ling Yuansheng told him that his parents were both monks, and there was a high possibility that he had spiritual roots.
But Ling Youdao is still worried that he has no spiritual roots. After all, what Ling Yuansheng said is not 100%. Maybe he is unlucky and does not have spiritual roots?
The night before the spirit testing conference, he stayed up all night and prayed to all the gods and Buddhas he knew very "sincerely".
Pray that they will bless him with spiritual roots. Even if the five spiritual roots are the worst, and each spiritual root is only one inch long, he will not mind it, as long as he can cultivate.
The most desperate thing in this world is to have no hope!
Whenever he thinks that he cannot cultivate since he has no spiritual roots, he will constantly ask himself what is the point of being reborn into this world?
Ling Yuansheng took his hand and walked up to the high platform deep in the square. Standing in the square was a middle-aged monk wearing the same clothes as Ling Yuansheng.
"You know, please call me Grandpa Qi."
When Ling Youdao heard Ling Yuansheng's words, he shouted in confusion: "Hello, Grandpa Qi."
He later found out that the man he called Grandpa Seven was Ling Yuanqi, the fifth elder of the Ling clan in Cangli. He was the seventh in the Yuan family and was now the fifth elder of the Ling clan in Cangli.
Among the Cangli Ling family members, Ling Yuanqi and Ling Yuansheng have the best relationship, and they have a life-long friendship.
Ling Yuansheng said helplessly: "This child was worried that he had no spiritual roots several days ago."
"Fifth brother, didn't you and I come here the same way? Besides, I'm afraid you're not as relaxed as Youdao now, are you?"
Hearing this, Ling Yuansheng smiled bitterly.
He loved his little grandson very much, so he naturally hoped that he would have spiritual roots and be able to cultivate.
"Fifth brother, don't worry, I'll let Youdao do the first test later."
"Seventh brother, no thanks, let's follow the family rules to avoid anyone gossiping."
"Oh well."
Ling Yuansheng took Ling Youdao's hand and walked to the side of the square. After a while, the spirit testing conference began.
Starting from the eldest family member, one by one, the children walked onto the platform, but few of them came down with a smile.
Ling Youdao looked closely at the child on the spirit testing platform, his eyes filled with curiosity about the spirit roots, which made him forget his worries.
Long room, second room, third room...
Ling Yuanqi suddenly shouted: "Next, Qifang, Ling Youdao."
Hearing this, Ling Youdao was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
Ling Yuansheng patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Go ahead."
He nodded and walked onto the soul-finding platform.
A middle-aged man said softly: "Put your hands on it."
"oh."
Ling Youdao followed the man's words and placed his right hand on the soul-detecting platform, and then saw the two middle-aged men busy for a while.
"Fifth Elder, we are ready."
Ling Yuanqi waved his hand, signaling the two of them to step aside, while he himself came to the spirit-detecting platform.
"Don't be afraid."
"Um."
Then Ling Yuanqi injected a trace of mana into the soul-detecting platform, which was activated, and instantly three blue, green, and red light beams shot out.
"Great, I have spiritual roots, and I can also cultivate immortality." Ling Youdao shouted in his heart.
Ling Yuansheng's tightly clenched hands finally loosened up, and at the same time there was a smile on his face.
"Remember! Qifang Ling has three spiritual roots: water, wood, and fire. Water is five inches, wood is five inches, and fire is six inches."
Someone was crouching at the desk and writing down notes. Ling Yuanqi said, "You can put your hands down."
Ling Youdao retracted his hand. The three black, green, and red light beams also disappeared instantly.
"Yes, there are three spiritual roots of water, wood and fire, among which the fire spiritual root reaches six inches."
What Ling Youdao heard about the five-inch or six-inch thing was just a blur.
But he knows one thing, that is, he has spiritual roots and can cultivate like those on Qingcang Mountain.
He rushed down to the spiritual measuring platform and said impatiently: "Grandpa, I have spiritual roots, and I can also cultivate."
Ling Yuansheng stroked his head and said with a smile: "There are many monks in the North Sea with water spiritual roots and few with fire spiritual roots. I didn't expect that you not only have fire spiritual roots, but also reach six inches. Grandpa's body
The art of alchemy has been succeeded by someone, hahahaha...
After testing his spiritual roots, he entered the Cangli Ling family's family school and began to systematically understand the world, immortality cultivation, various immortality cultivation techniques, etc.
Ling Yuansheng wanted to pass on his alchemy skills to Ling Youdao, but Ling Youdao only wanted to practice and had no interest in alchemy at all. In other words, he chose strength.
Ling Yuansheng refused to give up. He took coercive measures and forced Ling Youdao to memorize a lot of knowledge about elixirs and alchemy.
Therefore, although Ling Youdao did not know how to make alchemy, he knew about it.
Time passed slowly in the memory, Ling Yuanxing on the soul measuring platform said: "Qifang, Ling Renxin."
Ling Youdao came back to his senses, looked at Ling Renxin and smiled: "Renxin, go ahead."
The little guy nodded and walked up to the soul-finding platform.
When Ling Yuanxing activated the spirit detection platform, four blue, white, yellow and green light beams shot out.
Ling Renyi waved his hand happily, "Third uncle, my brother has spiritual roots."
Ling Youdao also smiled and nodded repeatedly.
"Remember, Qifang Lingren believes in the four spiritual roots of water, wood, metal and earth, four inches of water, two inches of wood, one inch of gold, and one inch of earth."
"Next, Qifang Ling Renyi."
Ling Youdao looked at his nephew, "Renyi, it's your turn."
Ling Renyi nodded, and then ran up to the spirit testing platform happily.
"Renyi, come on, you must also have spiritual roots. From now on, we will cultivate immortality together."
Ling Renxin clenched his fists, turned around and walked off the spirit testing platform.
When Ling Yuan Star activated the spirit detection platform, three yellow, white and blue light beams shot out.
Seeing this, Ling Youdao was slightly excited, and Ling Renxin was even dancing.
Ling Yuanxing was a little surprised. There were only two children from the direct lineage of Qifang. He didn't expect that both children had spiritual roots.
But he quickly calmed down, "Remember, the seventh room is Ling Renyi, and the three spiritual roots are earth, metal, and water. Five inches of earth, three inches of gold, and one inch of water."
"Next……"
On the edge of the square, the two little guys were chasing each other, very happy!
"Okay, we're back, your mother is still waiting!"
"Yes, third uncle."
The three of them rode paper cranes back to the seven-room compound. When the two sisters heard that their sons had spiritual roots, they burst into tears instantly.
Ling Youdao comforted him for a while and told him: "Since the two little guys have spiritual roots and can cultivate immortals, they will have to join the clan and study for five years. In these five years, it will be difficult for you to see each other more than once a year."
noodle."
Qingcang Mountain is vast, and the distance between Qifang Courtyard and Cangli Ling Clan Academy is not that far, so monks can easily travel between the two places.
But for ordinary mortals, crossing two places is a narrow escape.
"I understand, I understand."
