Longevity: Starting with an infant's innate growth potential

Purple Cloud Mountain, Zhou Family Cultivation Room.

"Husband, isn't this too dangerous?"

Looking at Zhou Ling and her daughter, Wang Xin's expression revealed worry.

"It's nothing, just a newly formed second-tier fire seed. I can help Ying'er refine it."

Zhou Ling said with a smile.

Then he looked at his daughter and asked, "Ying'er, are you scared?"

My daughter is still young, so there's no need to rush her to fuse with the spirit flame.

However, both he and his wife practiced the method of cultivating both spiritual flames.

They knew the benefits that fusing the fire seed brought to cultivation.

Just like now, Zhou Ling's cultivation has progressed so quickly, and the Five Spirit Flames have played a significant role in that.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve such a uniform and rapid improvement in all five elements simultaneously.

"Father, I'm not afraid."

Zhou Ying'er shook her head, showing no sign of worry, but instead looking at her father with anticipation.

Seeing her daughter like this, Zhou Ling smiled and said, "Ying'er is so brave!"

"Husband, be careful!"

Wang Xin then gave Zhou Ling some more instructions.

Zhou Ling nodded, then waved his hand, and a black cauldron appeared.

Inside the furnace, the golden spirit and heavenly flames blazed fiercely.

Then, with a flick of his hand, a flash of cyan light appeared.

The Azure Lotus Spirit Flame condensed and slowly rose in Chen Ling's hand.

Like a clear and pure lotus flower in bloom.

Then, Zhou Ling pointed his finger, and the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame swept out, enveloping the fire seed within.

Because the daughter possesses the Fire Spirit Wood Lotus Body.

Therefore, it can also fuse with the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame, but at this moment, the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame has not yet condensed the Flame Soul Fire Seed.

Zhou Ling's actions were merely to refine that Flame Soul Seed.

With the assistance of the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame, there will be no risk in the fusion process for the daughter.

At the same time, it also possesses a spirit flame with both fire and wood attributes.

Before long, the originally blazing and surging Flame Soul Fire Seed calmed down, its flames glowing with a blue light and radiating a vigorous wood attribute energy.

"My husband, you are so clever! How come I didn't think of this idea!"

Looking at Ling Yan, Wang Xin immediately smiled and said.

At this moment, she could feel that the Flame Soul Seed had been fused with the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame, becoming extremely docile.

It was imbued with the aura of the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame.

In this situation, it is unlikely that the daughter will be harmed.

Moreover, the original Flame Soul Fire Seed was extremely intense, and although the daughter had already begun cultivation, her meridians were not yet strong enough.

To contain this spark, one must also endure much pain.

She didn't want to see her daughter suffer like this.

After merging with the aura of the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame, this fire seed also possessed the aura of the Azure Lotus Spirit Flame.

It appears extremely gentle and mild, and not only will it not harm the meridians, but it also has a nourishing effect.

"Ying'er, Father will help you fuse with the fire seed. Don't be afraid!"

Zhou Ling spoke gently to her daughter.

"Yes, Daddy, I'm not afraid."

Zhou Ying'er nodded.

"it is good."

Zhou Ling's magical power surged, and the fire seed shone with a brilliant blue light. Under the shroud of Zhou Ling's magical power, it slowly flowed from Zhou Ying'er's small hand into her body.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, Zhou Ying'er felt a surge of heat throughout her body, and her entire being was enveloped in azure flames and spiritual light.

"Dad, it's so hot!"

Zhou Ying'er called out instinctively.

She wasn't afraid.

Suddenly, a surge of heat rose within him, and he couldn't help but make a sound.

"It's fine!"

Zhou Ling said softly, while five-colored spiritual light shone in his hand.

The pure Yang energy of the Five Elements condensed and, along with the spiritual flame seed, merged into the daughter's body.

The Five Elements Pure Yang Elixir Qi has the effect of refining the physical body and magical power.

While tempering her daughter's physical body, it can also help her fuse with the fire seed.

As the pure Yang energy of the Five Elements was integrated, Zhou Ying'er felt the heat in her body quickly subside.

Then, following the instructions of the Green Wood Technique, he recited the incantation and began to cultivate.

Her delicate and adorable face appeared serious and focused.

In an instant, Zhou Ying'er was enveloped in five-colored spiritual light, appearing extremely mysterious.

And so, with the aid of the five-colored spiritual light and the Azure Lotus Spiritual Flame, Zhou Ying'er continued to refine the Flame Soul Fire Seed.

"call!"

Seeing that her daughter's breathing had stabilized, Wang Xin finally felt relieved.

Although she trusted Zhou Ling completely.

However, I can't help but feel worried.

This can be considered a success.

With this Flame Soul Seed, plus her daughter's constitution...

His cultivation speed is probably much faster than hers.

"alright!"

After a moment, Zhou Ling said with a smile.

At this moment, the Flame Soul Seed had already merged into the daughter's body, transforming into a stream of flame light flowing through her meridians.

The area was enveloped in five-colored spiritual light.

This is the pure Yang Qi of the Five Elements.

"Father, that's all!"

Upon hearing her father's words, Zhou Ying'er opened her eyes, seemingly unaffected.

Wang Xin quickly hugged her daughter and asked with concern, "Ying'er, how are you?"

"Mom, I don't know either, I just feel warm and comfortable inside my body."

Zhou Ying'er flashed her canine teeth and replied somewhat blankly.

"Yinger is amazing!"

"What do you want to eat for lunch? Mom will cook for you herself."

Wang Xin said with a smile.

"Mom, none of your cooking is good. Let Grandma cook instead!"

Zhou Ying'er told the truth.

"All right!"

Wang Xin smiled and nodded.

The couple then took their daughter's hand and left the meditation room.

······.

Ten days later, in the council chamber of Tianjian Division.

"Everyone, the rules for participating in the Four Great Grotto-Heavens Trial and the list of participating cultivators have been announced!"

Zhou Ling glanced at everyone and said with a serious expression.

He then looked at Lu Yunxi and said, "Deacon Lu, please announce the details to everyone."

"Yes, take the head!"

Lu Yunxi nodded in reply.

He then continued, explaining to everyone, "This trial will last for six months."

"Gain military merit points by killing alien races."

"Depending on their military achievements, every two months, the cultivators who participate in the trials can enter the corresponding treasure vault to exchange for the items they need."

"The higher the ranking of the cultivator, the higher the grade of the items they can exchange for."

"Deacon Lu, how do we enter the treasure vault to exchange for it?"

After listening, Qi Jianzhi asked a question.

In the past, during the trials at the Sword Qi Great Wall, they also relied on military merits to exchange for supplies.

However, it was to be exchanged with the Sword Qi Great Wall. He couldn't help but feel puzzled that this exchange could only be done once every two months, and with this so-called treasure vault.

After all, the trial lasts for half a year, and the subsequent supply of pills, spirit stones, etc. is also extremely important.

"This treasure vault is a small secret realm specially created by the four great grotto heavens for this trial."

“Cultivators participating in the trial can enter by activating their identity jade tokens and exchange them for the supplies they want.”

"Of course, the premise is that you have enough military merits."

Lu Yunxi explained to Qi Jianzhi.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, indicating that they understood.

This is much more convenient than exchanging it for the Sword Qi Great Wall.

After all, back at the Sword Qi Great Wall, the battle situation was urgent, and many pills were hard to come by.

"In addition, there's the situation regarding the cultivators from the other three major grotto-heavens participating in the trial!"

"There are also some comprehensive predictions of the top four cave dwellers' rankings!"

Lu Yunxi continued her introduction to everyone, while activating a memory jade in her hand.

Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but look at the projection.

After all, they were all young and curious, and they also wanted to know the strength of the other geniuses from the cave heavens.

And where he would rank on the prestigious list of geniuses in the four great grotto heavens of the human race.

"Currently, there are thirty-two disciples participating in the trial, eight from each of their respective grotto-heavens. They can all be described as peerless geniuses from their respective grotto-heavens."

"Two members of our Dao Alliance have made it into the top ten."

"Feng Zhizheng is ranked ninth, and Zhou Zhishou is ranked fourth!"

Lu Yunxi continued her introduction.

Is that accurate?

"Zhi Shou, the number one prodigy of our Dao Alliance, is only fourth?"

"Are all the other geniuses from the Cave Heaven that terrifying?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked surprised and began to discuss it amongst themselves.

Yan Yutian's gaze darkened, especially.

He has now accepted that there is a gap in strength between himself and Zhou Ling.

However, in all aspects, he has always been above Feng Lan, so how come his ranking is lower than Feng Lan's now?

Moreover, it doesn't even rank among the top ten of the Four Great Grotto Heavens.
Who is number one?

Qi Jianzhi asked with a look of dissatisfaction.

In his view, Zhou Ling was definitely the number one genius among the four great cave dwellers.

After all, he had personally witnessed Zhou Ling kill a fifth-tier Star Sea alien twice.

He didn't believe that any other prodigies under the age of sixty could do that.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling also looked at Liu Ying with curiosity.

Although he wasn't particularly interested in this ranking.

But he also knew that this trial was of paramount importance to him.

After all, this is the most important thing that has happened to me in recent years since I took over Tianjian Company.

The implications extend beyond Tianjian Division; they even concern the entire Dao Alliance.

On a smaller scale, it concerns the future and path of everyone present.

If you achieve good results in the trial.

All the cultivators present who participated in the trial will have a bright future.

Therefore, he suddenly became curious about the strength of his trial opponent.

After all, he had killed two fifth-tier Star Sea aliens. With such a record, how could anyone surpass him?
"These three are currently the top three prodigies!"

At this moment, Lu Yunxi pointed to the two men and one woman appearing on the screen and continued to introduce them to everyone.

Zhou Ling glanced over and saw that the two young men looked to be in their early thirties.

A man dressed in a white robe, with a refined and handsome appearance and a calm gaze, yet exuding an extremely powerful sense of oppression.

The other person had a slightly rugged appearance and a burly physique. He seemed to be surrounded by faint lightning, and his aura was equally astonishing.

Another woman, dressed in a purple dress, possessed stunning beauty and a graceful figure, with a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth, exuding an air of extreme confidence.

"These three prodigies are ranked first to third respectively!"

"The first one is Wu Daoyuan, the number one genius of the Heavenly Palace. He is only thirty-one years old and has already entered the Nascent Soul Realm and comprehended the Four Realms of Sword Dao."

"He was born into the Wu family, a renowned family of swordsmen in the Heavenly Palace."

"The Wu family is the number one swordsmanship family in the Heavenly Palace, and it can even be said to be the number one swordsmanship family among the four great cave heavens of the human race."

"Currently, there are nine sword cultivators in the family who have reached the fifth level of sword cultivation."

"His cultivation level reached the Void Refinement Realm at its highest, and his combat power was even more terrifying."

"Wu Daoyuan possesses the Void Origin Sword Body, and with this physique alone, he can control numerous precious swords."

"It is said that when he was born, there was a strange phenomenon in the Wu family where ten thousand swords rang out simultaneously."

"Moreover, because of his Void Origin Sword Body, he fused with the Xuan Yuan Sword, a fifth-grade top-quality sword from his family's sword shrine, from a young age."

"The Xuan Yuan Sword Spirit automatically recognizes you as its master."

"Two years ago, with the aid of the Xuan Yuan Sword, I killed two fifth-tier alien races."

"Not only is his talent in swordsmanship extremely amazing, but his comprehension, physique, courage and other aspects are also far superior to those of his peers."

"He comprehended sword intent at the age of three, went to the demon realm alone to kill third-tier demon beasts at the age of nine, comprehended the unity of man and sword at the age of twelve, and reached the state of 'one sword between heaven and earth' at the age of twenty, easily killing fourth-tier alien races."

"The probability of reaching the fifth level of swordsmanship and the Nascent Soul realm in the future is over 90%."

"He is the number one genius in the Heavenly Palace, and the data even suggests that he may one day become the chief of the Heavenly Palace."

"hiss!"

"hiss!"

"hiss!"

Upon hearing Lu Yunxi's introduction, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

The Void Origin Sword Body was already terrifying enough, but I never expected to obtain a fifth-grade top-quality sword as its master when I was young.

What a terrible thing.

Even Feng Lan, who was once the number one sword genius in the Dao Alliance, was momentarily dumbfounded.

Although she had heard some information about the Heavenly Pride of the Heavenly Palace before.

However, they didn't know much about it, and their information wasn't as comprehensive as Lu Yunxi's.

Most aristocratic families would not allow their prodigies to live in the shadows for the sake of empty fame.

On the contrary, they will do everything they can to prevent information from being leaked.

After all, every powerful family that has risen to prominence has its enemies.

This will also better protect the growth of Tianjiao.

After all, without a truly outstanding talent, one is nothing.

Zhou Ling was equally shocked.

I just fused my daughter with the Flame Soul Seed a few days ago, thinking that she was already ahead of the game at her age.

Unexpectedly, there are those who are born with a fifth-tier sword recognized as their master.

This is really horrifying.

"The second one is Qin Yi from the Qin family of the Desolate Region. He is at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage and possesses the Divine Ape Thunder Body, a top ten battle body. Once activated, his combat power will increase exponentially."

"The Qin family is a Nascent Soul family, and its strength in the Desolate Region is quite good, but it is not yet a top-tier aristocratic family."

"But Qin Yi has been exceptionally talented and courageous since childhood. At the age of six, he joined the Xianmen Town Wilderness Army with his parents to kill alien races."

"To date, we have killed tens of thousands of alien races and made outstanding contributions to the immortal sect."

"Now that he has activated his Divine Ape Thunder Body, he is also able to fight against fifth-tier alien races."

"The third one is Xia Ruohe from the Xia family of the Immortal Sect. She is at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage and possesses the extremely rare Myriad Spirits Dao Body. She has had an astonishing comprehension of various techniques since childhood."

"At only twenty-three years old, he is already able to set up fifth-order magic arrays and refine fifth-order pills."

"His talent is so terrifying that almost no one among human cultivators can compare to him!"

Lu Yunxi then introduced the other two people.

Upon hearing Lu Yunxi's words, everyone immediately fell silent.

Now I understand why Zhou Ling, with his terrifying combat power, is ranked fourth.

The first three sound like they're not ordinary people at all; they're all prodigies.

A child is born with a fifth-tier sword that recognizes him as its master.

A divine ape with doubled combat power.

One of them is an even rarer Wanling Dao Body.

In their early twenties, they were already fifth-tier array masters, alchemists, and weapon refiners.

They had no choice but to accept this ranking.

Even Qi Jianzhi was speechless for a moment. (End of Chapter)
