The cultivation of immortality by mortals begins with the abandoned children of the river

Fifteen days later.

Shengxian City.

Before dawn, the streets were already crowded with people and extremely noisy.

Countless vendors took to the streets and shouted loudly.

People from all over the country gathered in this small Shengxian City, and there were even people from hundreds of miles away, riding in oxcarts and carriages, and trekking for several days to get here.

Xuantian Sect, the sect of the Xian Family, opened its gates to recruit disciples. Once every three years, only children between the ages of eight and twelve are admitted. This has become a local custom. Every time a disciple is accepted, it is the busiest day in Shengxian City.

Needless to say, for families with good conditions, as long as one cultivator is born, they can protect the family for hundreds of years, while for poor families, as long as their children are selected, they can receive thousands of taels of silver and immediately become rich families.

This caused all nearby children of the right age, no matter rich or poor, to be sent to Shengxian City by their parents to try their luck.

Zhan Nianchuan also mixed in the crowd and walked into Shengxian City.

A long time ago, Zhan Shou took him to sell tiger bones and bear paws while Xuantian Sect was recruiting disciples. He witnessed this event with his own eyes. Although many years have passed, Zhan Nianchuan's memory is very vivid. Well, although I stumbled along the way, I still found this place successfully.

Today, he is much thinner than before, and the coarse linen clothes on his body are still stained with dried blood and dust. He looks like a beggar boy and looks inconspicuous.

There was a huge crowd, people with their children, constantly flocking to the square in the city.

From their conversations and instructions to the children, Zhan Nianchuan understood that this was where the immortals of the Xuantian Sect accepted their disciples.

At the front of the crowd, hundreds of children were already sitting around, waiting for their fate and looking forward to being chosen by the immortals.

Zhan Nianchuan's powerful physique was unstoppable. He easily squeezed out of the crowd, lowered his head, found a corner and sat at the front.

Among a group of young children, Zhan Nianchuan stood out, attracting a lot of strange looks and comments.

"This guy is so old, why is he here to be selected? Isn't this funny?"

"Don't tell me, maybe this kid is just big, haha~"

"What is that stupid guy doing in there? He dares to lie about his age without fear of offending the immortal."

Zhan Nianchuan looked calm and turned a deaf ear, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Xuantian Sect immortals.

At this moment, the clouds in the sky suddenly dispersed, and a red fairy sword came through the sky.

And above the flying sword, two figures stood proudly, their clothes fluttering, like flying immortals from the sky.

"It's an immortal! The immortal has come to recruit disciples who are destined to be immortals!"

There was a sudden commotion among the crowd, and they all looked up in unison, holding their breath and concentrating, for fear of offending the immortal.

The tens of thousands of people gathered in the entire Shengxian City were noisy and noisy just now, but now they have completely quieted down.

In an instant, the red fairy sword circled over the town and landed lightly in the center of the city square. Two figures jumped from above, and the red fairy sword shrank and hung on the back of one of them.

"Immortal! Are you the benefactor who saved me?" Zhan Nianchuan perked up and stared at the visitor with wide eyes.

One of them was wearing a soap-colored robe, with white beard and hair. He seemed to be very old, but he was energetic, with piercing eyes, and looked like a fairy.

The other person is a 28-year-old girl, wearing light green clothes, with picturesque eyebrows, delicate and charming hair, and her hair dancing in the wind, like a fairy.

"This fairy is so beautiful, my God."

"Silence, don't offend the fairy, it's enough for us ordinary people to take a look at this life."

"The fairy has come to earth. I didn't expect to see such a beautiful woman in my lifetime."

......

People were talking a lot, and countless people looked at the woman with blazing eyes. Even hundreds of children were stunned and turned into silly geese.

Zhan Nianchuan's expression was calm. Of course, this woman was stunningly beautiful, but for him, who had a blood feud, the most important thing was to enter the Xuantian Sect. He didn't care about other things.

Seeing the nearly a thousand children in front of the crowd, the old man couldn't help but smile slightly, "There are more children here this year than in previous years. I hope there will be good seedlings, but I am always overwhelmed by other peaks. I feel really unwilling."

The woman in green smiled, "Don't worry, there are so many people participating in the spiritual root test this year, there will definitely be a few good ones, let's get started now."

After saying that, the woman waved her delicate hand, and a round table appeared out of thin air in front of the children. Looking at the curious eyes of the children, the woman smiled brightly, took out a large transparent ball, and placed it on the table.

The old man coughed lightly, took a step forward, and said loudly: "Dear fellow villagers, my Xuantian Sect will start recruiting disciples now. If you are willing to send your child to the Xuantian Sect, please ask him to come to the front desk to see if he is destined to be an immortal."

After hearing these words, the crowd became commotion, and several more children were sent to the front desk.

The old man looked at the hundreds of children in front of him and said calmly: "The spiritual root is the first priority for immortal cultivators. The excellence of the spiritual root directly determines how far you can go on the path to immortality. Next, I will test your spiritual roots. Now, everyone lines up. , place your palms on the spirit-detecting ball one by one." After speaking, he pointed to the ball on the table.

After the words fell, hundreds of children looked at each other and lined up in a long queue.

A very bold-looking child stepped forward and carefully placed his palm on the ball, his eyes full of hope.

After several breaths, the ball showed no response.

"If you're not qualified, please step down." The old man said expressionlessly.

The crowd let out a slight sigh, and the child seemed to have lost all his strength and walked aside sadly.

"Next!"

Another child came forward, also carefully placed his hand on the ball, and watched with breathless concentration.

This time the ball shook slightly, and golden light, green light, yellow light, and blue light lit up one after another, and the colors were all dim.

"Gold, wood, earth, and water are all around to test your spiritual roots. If you pass the test, go and stand on the right side. Next one." The old man was very indifferent.

The child's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and his expression became excited. He obediently walked to the old man's right side and stood there. Among the crowd, several people became visibly excited.

The test continues.

"Unqualified! Next one."

"Next!"

"Next!"

"Four spiritual roots, three lower grades and one middle grade, stand on the right side. Next!"

As the test progressed, the old man's expression became more and more irritable, and his brows were full of impatience.

So far, I have only received two Four Spiritual Roots. This kind of spiritual root can barely be accepted into the door. It is the most common spiritual root in the world of immortal cultivation. If this is the case, won't it still make the peaks laugh? The old man thought very depressedly.

Looking at the few children left, the old man really didn't have much hope, and even his voice became weak.

"next."

At this time, a young man in brocade came forward and put his hand on the soul-detecting ball.

Two bright rays of light flashed through, grabbing the attention of the old man and the girl.

"This... this is the ultimate dual-attribute water-fire spiritual root. It's rare to see." The old man's lips trembled with excitement as he stared at the two red and white lights.

"Senior Brother Chen, we are so lucky this time. The best twin spiritual roots haven't appeared in the peak for many years." The beautiful woman in green eyes widened with joy.

There are very few top-quality dual-attribute spiritual roots in the world of immortality. The first time they appear, they will be robbed by various sects, because the cultivation speed of top-quality dual-attribute spiritual roots is several times that of ordinary dual-attribute spiritual roots, and it is easier to break through bottlenecks. It can be said that possessing the best dual-attribute spiritual roots A dual-attribute top-grade spiritual root user is equivalent to booking a great master in the late stage of foundation building.

"Hahahaha~" Senior Brother Chen laughed heartily, "God has blessed me with Lin Dan Peak. With this son, I will definitely win the first place in the intra-sect confrontation competition in three years' time!"

"What's your name?" Senior Brother Chen looked at the young man in brocade with a smile on his face.

The young man's eyebrows showed pride, "Lin Hongzhi."

Senior Brother Chen looked at the young man in brocade clothes. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. Even the obvious arrogance on his face made him feel that this boy was determined. He waved with a smile, "Okay, what a good name! Come on, kid, come to Senior Brother."

Upon hearing the cry, the young man in golden clothes walked obediently to Senior Brother Chen, held his head high and looked at the many children with disdain.

Unexpectedly receiving the top-notch dual-spirit-root immortal seedling from the young man in brocade, Senior Brother Chen felt happy and looked at Zhan Nianchuan, who was silent at the back, and said, "Come up."
