"The so-called test is just a means. The most important thing is to choose a disciple that satisfies me." Zhang Jiuling stroked his beard and said with some meaning.

"I would like to ask for advice from my seniors." Yan Nantian bowed and said.

"The Ascension Order has certain restrictions on selecting people. First of all, this person cannot be too old and his cultivation cannot be too high. Otherwise, he has formed his own kitchen path, and it will be difficult to completely inherit the kitchen path of Shengxianju." Zhang Jiuling said quietly, saying:

"The second point is that this person also needs spiritual power and spiritual consciousness, otherwise he will not be able to activate the Ascension Order. You can be sent in by the Ascension Order. Obviously you meet these two conditions, but this is only the most basic condition and does not mean that you will definitely be able to obtain the inheritance."

"Senior, don't worry, I not only have spiritual power and spiritual consciousness, but also I am a spiritual chef myself." Yan Nan Tiandao.

"Oh, then tell me what kind of spiritual kitchen dishes do you do?" Zhang Jiuling said with a scrutiny look.

After hearing Zhang Jiuling's words, Yan Nantian couldn't help but frown slightly. He was full of doubts about Zhang Jiuling, and he didn't even know the other party's true identity. Unexpectedly, the other party came to interrogate him instead.

"Senior, after I arrived here, I can be said to be a disgrace. Should you introduce me to Shengxianju first?" Yan Nantian asked back.

"Haha, you kid are quite alert." Zhang Jiuling smiled and said, "Let's do this, I haven't talked to anyone for a long time. I'm just about to talk to someone. Let's ask each other a question. How about it?"

"Okay. Just as the senior said." Yan Nan Tiandao.

"Then I'll ask a question again." Zhang Jiuling's eyes rolled and said, "What era is there now? What are the major forces in the world?"

"Senior, I am just a casual cultivator. I have just become a spiritual chef recently. I have never even appeared in Wujiang Town. I don't know much about the outside world." Yan Nantian smiled bitterly and said.

Zhang Jiuling curled his lips and muttered with dissatisfaction: "Forget it, then you can introduce yourself to me. Let me have a rough understanding."

"The following name is Yan Nantian. I grew up in the nearby Wujiang Town. My grandfather was a chef. I also learned cooking skills from my grandfather since I was a child. Later, by chance, I entered the Lingchu Restaurant of Yuelaiju. With the help of a Lingchu senior, I studied two Lingchu dishes and had the capital to practice, so I was able to become a Lingchu." Yan Nan Tiandao.

"Oh. You actually entered the way with a kitchen, which is quite rare." Zhang Jiuling said in surprise.

Therefore, using the cooking to enter the Tao means first to cultivate cooking skills, and then cultivate spiritual power after the cooking skills are successful. After such people practice spiritual kitchens, their cooking skills will become more profound.

This is not the case for most spiritual chefs. Instead, they first cultivate spiritual power and spiritual consciousness, and only after they have the qualifications to become spiritual chefs will they practice cooking skills.

"Senior, I have answered your question below. Is it my turn to ask?" Yan Nantian asked back.

"You ask?" Zhang Jiuling said.

"Senior, I want to know your situation too?" Yan Nantian asked back. This is what he wants to figure out the most now.

Zhang Jiuling just said something about the test, but now he is not in a hurry. Yan Nantian even began to doubt that the test Zhang Jiuling mentioned before was more about testing himself.

"Didn't I say it before? I am the elder of Shengxianju." Zhang Jiuling said lightly.

"Senior, you're cheating on this. If I just said that I was the Lingchu of Yuelaiju when I introduced it just now, what would you think?" Yan Nantian asked back.

"Hmph, you kid are really petty." Zhang Jiuling snorted, knowing that his attitude just now was a bit perfunctory, and he pondered for a moment:

"Many years ago, Shengxianju encountered a crisis. Hundreds of chain restaurants either went bankrupt or were merged by other Lingchu restaurants. Several elders of Shengxianju were also hunted down. In order to preserve the inheritance of Shengxianju, the remains of Shengxianju were found. My existence is also to help Shengxianju find a suitable inheritor and recreate the glory of Shengxianju in the past."

After saying that, Zhang Jiuling showed a look of remembrance, as if immersed in his past memory. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Boy, I have answered your question. Now I want to ask the second question."

...

Just as Yan Nantian and Zhang Jiuling were testing each other, a huge change occurred outside Shengxianju. With the arrival of the lord of Jiangcheng City, Tang Zhengdong, the people who were originally dispersed in sand were gradually condensed.

At this time, the Tang family's camp was very lively, and all forces were invited by Tang Zhengdong and gathered in the largest tent in the Tang family's camp.

Tang Zhengdong sat in the main seat of the tent, and representatives of various forces sat on both sides, Du Youzhen, Tiedan Mercenary Group, Yuelaiju, Huanghelou, Food God Fang, Jiang Taiping...

"Everyone, I believe everyone can guess the purpose of my invitation to you today, that is, to break through the Ascension House as soon as possible, and then reasonably allocate the treasures inside." Tang Zhengdong glanced at everyone and said.

After hearing Tang Zhengdong's words, everyone did not reply immediately, and then lowered their heads and began to think. After a long time, Li Zhanqi, the shopkeeper of Huanghelou, stood up and said, "Lord Tang, don't know how you mean to allocate?"

"Of course, everyone depends on opportunities." Tang Zhengdongdao.

"Lord Tang City, what if you follow your own opportunities, what if there is a fight?" Li Zhanqi asked.

"If you are afraid of a fight, I will collect the treasure first, and then distribute it according to the size of the credit." Tang Zhengdong sneered.

After hearing Tang Zhengdong's words, not only Li Zhanqi's face froze, but the rest of the people also changed slightly, so naturally they would not agree to this proposal.

"In my opinion, it's better to rely on opportunities." said the old man Jiang Taiping.

"Yes, it's better to rely on opportunities." Everyone said to themselves.

Although the forces in all parties are quite strong, among the leaders of all parties, Tang Zhengdong has the highest cultivation level and the strongest strength, so he has to be a little bit thin.

"Since that's the case, then let's make up. Now start attacking Shengxianju. When the protective array of Shengxianju is broken, we will get the treasures inside." Tang Zhengdong stood up and said without hesitation.

"Mr. Tang, now you are starting to enter Shengxianju. Isn't it a bit too hasty?" said the shopkeeper of Tianxiao Pavilion.

"Yes, I also feel it's too hasty. Should I wait a moment?" Lin Yue'er also echoed.

Several major Lingchu restaurants have sent messages to the headquarters, and experts will soon come to take charge, so if you want to delay time, you can also get more treasures at that time.

"If you don't want to break through, then the city lord will go alone. However, you will get the treasure at that time and you are not here to do your part." Tang Zhengdong said coldly.

Tang Zhengdong's meaning is very simple, which is to strike while the iron is hot and take over Shengxianju as soon as possible while he is the strongest among all forces, so that he can get more benefits.

Although other forces did not want to take action immediately, Tang Zhengdong was not only the lord of Jiangcheng City, but also the only third-level cultivator present. He was much stronger than the other forces. Under his enlistment, division and threat, under his unified arrangement, everyone began to attack Shengxianju outside.

Under Tang Zhengdong's command, various forces selected second-level monks, and Tang Zhengdong led a group of second-level monks to attack. As for first-level monks, there was no place to use their skills.

An hour later, after all the parties had coordinated, there were more than a dozen people standing near Shenxianju. The head was Tang Zhengdong, the lord of Jiangcheng City, and the rest were watching from a distance.

Tang Zhengdong glanced at the eleven people, with a look of satisfaction on his face and said, "Everyone, after hearing my order, you must collectively attack the east side of Shengxianju. Let's open a hole from here so that it will not destroy other places in Shengxianju."

"Mr. Tang, do you really have to go to Shengxianju? Is there no other way?" Zhou Xuebin frowned and said. As a spiritual chef, he did not want to see Shengxianju destroyed, because it is very likely that there are precious recipes and kitchen heritage hidden here.

"I have already used spiritual consciousness to explore it before. There is no entrance to Shengxianju, and there is not even a moving gap. It is impossible to enter it in a normal way." Tang Zhengdong shook his head slightly and said.

Tang Zhengdong was the only third-level cultivator present, and his spiritual consciousness was much stronger than everyone else. Since even he said this, there was naturally no trick to take, and the rest of them no longer questioned.

Moreover, Tang Zhengdong was able to bring everyone together to enter the Xianju, which was already giving face to all forces. Otherwise, with the strength of a third-level cultivator, there might not be no possibility of eating alone.

"Everyone, follow my order. After I count three times, everyone will start attacking." Tang Zhengdong ordered, but in the first round of attack, he had no intention of taking action. He wanted to see the strength of everyone and how strong the defense of this Shengxianju was.

...

In the Ascension House, Zhang Jiuling and Yan Nantian were still testing each other and did not expect the crisis to come. After the discussion just now, they also gained understanding between each other.

Perhaps because of the reason why a person has been imprisoned for a long time, Yan Nantian found that Zhang Jiuling was a little chattering and a little yearning for the outside world. This was also a breakthrough and opportunity for Yan Nantian.

"Boom..."

Suddenly, a huge sound rang out, and the whole Shengxianju swayed. Yan Nantian's body also tilted, revealing a look of surprise, and asked, "Senior Zhang, what happened? Why did Shengxianju sway?"

Zhang Jiuling was also startled by the strong attack, and then was silent for a moment, with a complex look on his face, and said:

"Someone is attacking Shengxianju outside."
