Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

Inside the Taoist temple.

Zhou Ling had a calm face and held an inscription pen in his hand.

On the wooden table in front of him, there were spiritual paper and spiritual ink.

In his mind, he first sketched the outline of the third-level inscription.

Each third-level inscription has more than a hundred inscriptions, which is a great test of the spiritual power of the inscription master.

However, the most important thing is to condense the spiritual treasure seal.

This spiritual treasure seal is the main seal in the third-level inscription.

Its function is similar to the node of the second-level inscription.

But its fusion of spiritual power is far better than the node of the inscription.

And this time, what he wants to draw is the third-level fire cloud inscription.

After carefully combing through the key points of the fire cloud inscription, Zhou Ling circulated the spiritual power in his body, cooperated with the divine consciousness, and began to draw.

"Huhu!"

On the spiritual paper, as the inscriptions condensed one by one, the spiritual patterns on it glowed with red luster, becoming brighter and brighter.

And gradually took shape.

"Condensate!"

Zhou Ling continued to inject spiritual power, and with a light shout, he drew the last stroke of the Fire Cloud Spiritual Treasure Seal.

A stream of flames rose on the spiritual paper.

Whoosh!

On the spiritual paper, it seemed as if a fire cloud was constantly condensing.

Zhou Ling was meticulous.

It could be clearly felt that at this moment, the Qianyang True Fire was merging into the spiritual power, making the spiritual power in the body more pure and concentrated.

At the same time, with the assistance of the [Meticulous] talent, the consumption was not as great as imagined.

Originally, every time an inscription was drawn, the spiritual power would be lost more or less.

But at this moment, under the effect of the Qianyang True Fire, it was firmly locked by the inscription without any consumption.

After a while.

A fire-colored spiritual light flashed on the spiritual paper.

Seeing this, Zhou Ling quickly pinched his hands and cast a spell on the Fire Cloud Seal.

The Fire Cloud Seal was on the verge of collapse, and a red light flashed, and then the red light was retracted and re-incorporated into the seal.

"Huh!"

"It's the first time I refined a third-level seal, and it actually worked!"

Looking at the Fire Cloud Seal that solidified on the spiritual paper with a fiery red spiritual luster, Zhou Ling himself was also a little surprised.

This is a third-level seal, and it succeeded in one go.

This is something he himself dared not think about.

Even when he was drawing a second-level top-grade seal, he had never succeeded in one go.

After failing several times, he slowly accumulated proficiency with the help of [Intermediate Observation] and [Intermediate Analysis].

And this time, it actually succeeded in one go.

Undoubtedly, this is the effect of the huge change after the Qianyang True Fire absorbed the spirit of the Golden Soul Burning Sky Flame.

"This is the refining effect of the Golden Soul Burning Sky Flame, which is really magical!"

Observing the Fire Cloud Seal carefully.

Through [Intermediate Analysis], he can see that the inscription drawn this time is very smooth, and the spiritual energy is evenly released, which is very accurate.

Especially the Fire Cloud Spirit Treasure Seal, which was almost completed in one go.

"According to this effect, refining the seal with Qianyang True Fire can almost increase the success rate by about 30%."

Zhou Ling couldn't help but sigh at the magic of the Golden Soul Burning Heaven Flame.

If a spirit soul has such an effect, then the Golden Soul Burning Heaven Flame can directly refine a seventh-level or even eighth-level treasure?

Or it can be said that this effect can only be achieved after the spirit soul and its own spirit flame are fused!

Zhou Ling thought in his heart.

However, this is only the first time to refine a third-level seal, and it is a fire-attributed seal.

All aspects are more compatible.

It should be normal for the effect to be better.

"But with this 30% success rate, plus my other means, the success rate of refining a third-level seal is still very high!"

Zhou Ling murmured.

Then he took out the third-level seal book and continued to study it.

After all, the day after tomorrow is the competition for the Tiangong Si Tianwei.

This time, from the information given by Lu Yunxi.

There were more than 70 people in total. Although these Tiangong Guards were not very old, most of them were second-grade Tiangong Guards.

Among them, most of them were in the early and middle stages of foundation building, and there were also two people in the late stage of foundation building.

They were all the pride of the original Xuanyuan Taoist Academy.

Xu Baoyuan and Zhao Sui, both of them were also weapon refiners, and now they can refine second-grade top-grade treasures.

They were also Zhou Ling's main competitors this time.

After a brief look at some of the information of this assessment, Zhou Ling left the training room.

Now that all the preparations have been made, the next assessment is to try his best.

As for the results, what should be fought for should still be fought for with all efforts.

After all, this trip to the Wang family also gave him a lot of pressure.

He certainly didn't want to be a son-in-law of the Wang family.

And with Xin'er's personality, she would definitely follow him and would not stay in the Wang family.

At that time, he would have to gather all the resources for the two to form a pill, which was a lot of pressure.

Therefore, next, the main direction for him to obtain resources is the Tiangong Division and the Taoist Academy.

Only by showing enough value can he get more resources.

······.

Two days later.

In the square of Xuanyuan Daoyuan, the Tiangongsi Tianwei assessment officially began.

Since the Tiangongsi and Xuanyuan Daoyuan are not far away.

Both parties are directly affiliated to the Dao League.

Usually, the Tiangongsi holds some major assessments and competitions in Xuanyuan Daoyuan.

It is also to increase the attraction to the disciples of the Daoyuan.

After all, the disciples of Xuanyuan Daoyuan are the main source of Tiangongsi guards.

On the open assessment platform, Zhou Ling and dozens of other second-grade Tiangong guards took their seats in order.

After reading the information last night, Zhou Ling had a good idea and felt that this time was very stable.

After all, according to the records in the data, these people are still unable to refine third-level treasures.

Of course, this is normal.

After all, this is the Tiangong Si Tianwei assessment, and the regulations stipulate that only second-level Tiangong guards under the age of 20 are eligible to participate.

At the age of 20, being able to cultivate to the late stage of foundation building requires not only amazing talent, but also sufficient cultivation resources to be able to do it.

Even Wang Qingshang, who is now 18 years old, has just entered the late stage of foundation building.

As the daughter of the Wang family, she naturally has no shortage of resources.

And it is extremely rare for a late stage of foundation building to be able to refine a second-level top-grade treasure.

Therefore, as long as he successfully refines a third-level treasure, he will be sure to win.

"Isn't that Zhou Ling from our inner courtyard?"

"Oh, it's really annoying to compare yourself to others! At the same time, Zhou Ling, an inner courtyard disciple, is already a second-grade Tiangong Guard."

"I have been in the inner courtyard for five years, but I can't get into the Tiangong Division."

"How can this be compared? He is a Tianpin Foundation Building."

"Have you heard? Zhou Ling is now our instructor!"

"Really? He has been in the inner courtyard for less than a year, and he is qualified to be our instructor?"

"Yesterday, Instructor Hu announced that he was transferred to the inner courtyard and Zhou Ling will be our instructor!"

"He is too young! How come he looks younger than me!"

"Age is not a problem, as long as he has strength!"

"Yes, I want to see what strength he has to be our instructor?"

······.

Around the square, there are inner courtyard disciples and outer courtyard disciples, and everyone is talking in groups of three or five.

Among them, undoubtedly, the most eye-catching one is Zhou Ling.

After all, he is the youngest and is still an inner courtyard disciple.

In addition, the Taoist Academy also announced his identity as an instructor of the outer courtyard.

So it attracted extra attention.

Now, the disciples of the Taoist Academy also know that Zhou Ling is a genius.

But the Taoist Academy has never lacked geniuses.

However, Zhou Ling's age, becoming an instructor, is absolutely unprecedented.

Normally, to become an instructor of the outer courtyard, at least the late stage of foundation building.

And Zhou Ling is only in the early stage of foundation building now.

But with the approval of Dean Zhong, others naturally have no objection.

However, the geniuses who were originally in the same class with Zhou Ling, such as Ye Zhilan, are inevitably a little embarrassed.

Originally, they had to wait for the foundation building seed competition in June next year to compete for the heavenly foundation building pill.

Only then would they start to build their foundation.

In just one and a half years, they originally regarded Zhou Ling as a genius disciple who was high above them.

Now Zhou Ling has become their instructor.

Absolutely unexpected.

"This time, the Tiangongsi Tianwei assessment is mainly for the Tiangongsi to select Tianwei and cultivate the best talents for the Tiangongsi."

"And Tianwei is the highest level among the Tiangongsi guards. If you can become a Tianwei, your future is limitless."

"Of course, there are only five Tianwei places in the entire Qingyang Fairyland."

"And Qingyun Fairy City has only one place to participate in the final Tianwei assessment."

"So you all have to do your best! Strive to get this place!"

On the high platform, Qin Zhizheng glanced at the many Tiangong guards on the assessment platform and said with a serious face.

Hearing this, the many Tiangong guards sitting cross-legged on the assessment platform were excited.

As second-grade Tiangong guards, they naturally know what becoming a Tianwei means to them.

That is a step to heaven.

In the future, even if the lowest achievement is like Qin Zhizheng in front of him, he will become a fourth-grade Xiancheng Zhizheng and lead the Tiangongsi of Xiancheng.

If you can stand out among the Tianwei, you will control the top ten people in the Dao League.

Of course, everyone knows how difficult it is to become a Heavenly Guard.

Apart from other things, there is only one place for the assessment in Qingyun Immortal City.

And there are more than 70 Heavenly Guards competing on the scene.

These are all the future elites of the Heavenly Works Division of Qingyun Immortal City.

But everyone knows that it is not easy to beat Xu Baoyuan and Zhao Sui, who are in the late stage of foundation building.

But no one wants to miss this opportunity.

"This competition is an assessment system."

"As long as the treasure refined this time is the highest level, you will win."

"And you can choose the items for the assessment in the assessment jade slip!"

"The assessment time is four hours, from the middle of Si to the middle of You."

"Everyone, get ready, the assessment will start after one stick of incense."

Qin Zhizheng continued to speak loudly.

As Qin Zhizheng's voice fell, the disciples on the assessment platform prepared themselves.

The alchemist took out the alchemy furnace and began to heat the furnace.

The weapon refiner used the weapon furnace.

The rune master and the formation master used the spirit ink and spirit pen, etc.

Zhou Ling sat cross-legged, took out the refining furnace, and then waited patiently.

Today's Tiangongsi assessment not only requires refining inscriptions, but also forging tools.

Tools made by the same refiner are generally better than those made separately.

After all, only refiners know the materials and refining techniques best.

When engraving inscriptions, the integration of all aspects will be higher.

"Zhou Ling, this kid wants to join in everything!"

On the judges' seat, Dean Zhong looked at Zhou Ling and said helplessly.

It took a lot of effort to convince him to become an external school instructor last time.

He also said that he didn't have much time, but he had time to participate in the Tiangongsi Tianwei assessment.

But think about it, this Tianwei quota is indeed worth fighting for.

But he was also worried that Zhou Ling would have to leave the Taoist Academy after becoming a Heavenly Guard.

However, becoming a Heavenly Guard is not that easy.

"Zhou Ling's strength is indeed good, but it is not easy to beat Xu Baoyuan and Zhao Sui."

"When they were in the Taoist Academy, they were both favored by heaven and were only one step away from building a heavenly foundation."

"And they have been able to steadily refine second-level top-grade treasures."

"Although Zhou Ling has many means, due to his cultivation, he can refine a second-price top-grade treasure, which is amazing enough!"

Zhang Daojian said with a smile.

The other two judges of the Tiangong Division also nodded.

Both of them are middle-aged men, one with a square face and a smile on his face.

The other has a short beard, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is very energetic.

The two are more aware of the strength of Xu Baoyuan and Zhao Sui, and Zhou Ling rarely walks around the Tiangong Division.

So he is quite famous in the Taoist Academy, but relatively few people in the Tiangong Division pay too much attention to him.

After all, when he was still practicing Qi cultivation, it was Qin Zhizheng who tried every means to make him a second-rank deacon.

But in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhou Ling did not stay in Tiangong Division for long.

He only went there once or twice a month to receive and deliver tasks.

"This kid is very smart, I am optimistic about him!"

Qin Zhizheng touched his chin and smiled.

In his opinion, Zhou Ling could not become a Tianwei this year, but he would definitely succeed in the future.

At his current age, even if he failed this time, he would still have a chance in the next few years.

"I think Xu Baoyuan has a better chance! After all, his cultivation is only one step away from the peak of foundation building, and he has made a lot of progress in the three years in Tiangong Division!"

Deacon Du of the square-faced Tiangong Division smiled.

The five judges discussed who would win this time?

Of course, from the surface, Zhou Ling's overall strength is definitely not as good as Xu Baoyuan and the others.

So he was not optimistic, and it was even difficult to enter the top four.

After all, most of the people on the assessment platform were mid-stage foundation building cultivators.

After studying in Tiangongsi for another two or three years, his skills have become more mature.

Ding Ding!

As the ancient and melodious bell sounded.

The assessment officially began.

In front of Zhou Ling, the assessment jade platform appeared.

There were jade slips, materials, etc. on the jade platform.

Zhou Ling took out the jade slips and injected his consciousness into them.

As a weapon refiner, there are five tools to choose from in this assessment.

Two second-grade upper-grade tools, two top-grade tools and one third-grade lower-grade tool.

In other words, to meet the standards of Tianwei, at least a second-grade upper-grade treasure tool must be refined.

However, according to the current situation.

The chance of obtaining a quota by refining a second-grade upper-grade tool is almost zero.

Therefore, Zhou Ling first glanced at the two top-grade treasure tools.

They were the top-grade robe and the sword.

These two treasure tools are the most practical treasure tools.

And the third-grade lower-grade treasure tool is also a sword.

Perhaps in order to make the deacon of the assessment dare to choose, it is of fire attribute.

As for the materials, there are Fire Gold Stone, Geng Gold, Li Fire Essence Stone, etc.

They are basically third-level fire attribute materials.

Looking at the materials, Zhou Ling did not hesitate and directly chose to refine the third-level sword.

After all, even if he refined the second-level top-grade treasure, he might not be able to win.

So he simply chose the third-level treasure.

Although the risk is a bit greater, once successful, the probability of winning will increase greatly.
