"Manman, are you planning to teach Qinghe cultivation? But what if he doesn't have spiritual roots?"

Xu Jingheng glanced worriedly at his son, who was eating the spiritual fruit with his little feet trembling. He had heard people say that people without spiritual roots were not qualified to cultivate.

"Yes, Qinghe is over three years old now, so we can test his spiritual roots. Mom and Dad, don't worry, even if my little brother doesn't have spiritual roots, I have a way to make him develop them."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Xu Jingheng was immediately delighted when he heard his daughter say she had a solution.

Grandpa Xu and his wife smiled with satisfaction at their grandson. At their advanced age, it didn't matter whether they cultivated immortality or not.

But their grandson is still young, and the world has become like this. In any case, they still hope that their grandson can have the opportunity to cultivate, so that he might not have to live at the bottom of society.

Without hesitation, Xu Qingman took out a spirit-testing stone from her spatial storage and had Xiao Qinghe place her hand on it, telling her not to think about anything else but to concentrate on feeling the stone under her hand.

The little one nodded, "Yes, I understand, sister."

As soon as the little one placed his hand on it, a burst of fiery red light shot towards the sky. Yu Jinchen quickly made a hand seal, enveloping the entire Xu family.

"What... what kind of spiritual root is this?" The whole family stood up excitedly.

"Haha, I never expected my brother to possess a top-grade fire spirit root." Xu Qingman was extremely excited. This was a top-grade fire spirit root that was hard to find even in the Lingchuan Continent. How could she not be excited?

Xu Jingheng asked excitedly, "A top-grade fire spirit root, Manman, you mean Qinghe's spirit root is very rare, right?"

Seeing Xu Qingman nod affirmatively, the four elders could no longer suppress their smiles.

Xu Meifen, in particular, affectionately patted her son's head. Unexpectedly, while both she and her husband possessed four spiritual roots, their son not only had a single spiritual root, but also a top-grade one.

She had been cultivating for almost a year, and although she and her husband's cultivation speed was slow, they dared not tell anyone. But they had found out most of the things about cultivation.

The better the spiritual root, the faster the cultivation speed. Will my son be able to cultivate to the Golden Core stage or even the Nascent Soul stage in the future?

Xu Qingman took the spirit-testing stone and walked up to the two old people, saying to them, "Grandpa and Grandma, why don't I test your spiritual roots too? If you also have spiritual roots, our whole family can embark on the path of cultivation together."

Xu Jingheng also chimed in, "That's right, Mom and Dad, let's get you tested slowly."

"Haha, alright, let's test it then. Old woman, let's have the kid tested too, to see if he has any spiritual roots."

Xu Maoye had long been curious about cultivating immortality, and seeing that his son and granddaughter were urging him, he readily agreed.

The old woman glared at him and scolded, "You're so old, and all you ever think about are good things. Do you want to become an old immortal or something?"

Although the old lady was scolding the old man, she took the initiative to put her hand on the spirit-testing stone first.

The old lady stared blankly at the beams of light in front of her and asked, "Manman, Grandma has spiritual roots, right?"

"Yes, Grandma, but your spiritual roots are rather mixed, making it difficult to cultivate to the highest level. However, prolonging life and reversing aging are no problem at all."

Before the old lady could speak, the old man said anxiously, "Alright, it can prolong life and make you younger, what more could you want? Don't worry about your grandma, let's check grandpa first."

Chen Guiying glared angrily at her old man, "You old fool, who's not satisfied?"

The old man's test results came out soon. Fortunately, he also had spiritual roots, but they were the most mixed of the five spiritual roots.

The old man was very satisfied with the result, saying that he did not want to live forever. He would be content to die as long as he could spend a few more years with his son and his family.

Xu Qingman mysteriously pulled out a jade box and looked at them with a smile, "Grandpa and Grandma, although I can't help you with your spiritual roots for the time being, I can still help you live a few more years."

As she spoke, she opened the jade box, revealing several fruits inside that emitted a rich, refreshing fragrance.

"Look, this is the Heavenly Origin Fruit that Jin Chen and I found this time. A cultivator can extend their life by a hundred years by eating just one. I believe that with a hundred years, Grandpa and Grandma, you will definitely be able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage."

Xu Jingheng suddenly stood up and said excitedly, "Extend my life by a hundred years? That's great! Then Mom and Dad, you should both take one and eat it. Don't be shy about it, it's something your granddaughter is giving you."

The old man gave his son a disdainful look. "You're such a grown man, yet you're still so impulsive. Didn't you hear Manman say that only cultivators can eat this? Your mother and I haven't even started cultivating yet, so what are we going to eat? Do you think we've lived too long?"

"Uh, Manman, is what your grandfather said true?" Xu Jingheng was extremely embarrassed. He had been too excited just now and hadn't noticed the word "cultivator".

“It’s alright, Uncle. Manman and I also found a longevity fruit that is suitable for mortals to eat, but it can only extend life by twenty years. I believe that with another twenty years, Grandpa and Grandma will definitely be able to successfully guide Qi into their bodies.”

Seeing Xu Jingheng embarrassed by the scolding, Yu Jinchen quickly came to his rescue.

“Yes, Xiao Chen is right. Mom and Dad, you should eat that longevity fruit first. After you successfully guide the Qi into your bodies, we can slowly take out the Tianyuan fruit for you to eat.”

"Then, Dad, Mom, you two should each eat one Heavenly Origin Fruit first. After you've eaten it, meditate and refine it. We'll protect you here."

Xu Jingheng shook his head. "We won't eat them. It's already very kind of you to give two of these precious things to your grandparents. You can eat the rest yourselves."

Yu Jinchen quickly urged, "Uncle, Aunt, please eat. This was originally prepared for you. Manman and I are already at the Nascent Soul stage, so we don't need this at all."

Nascent Soul stage? I never imagined the two children had grown to this level. They had found out that after successfully refining Qi, one could have a lifespan of two hundred years, and after establishing the Foundation, one could have a lifespan of five hundred years.

Each realm advancement grants an additional three hundred years of lifespan. By this calculation, the two children already possess a lifespan of 1100 years, and indeed, they no longer need to consume the Heavenly Spirit Fruit to extend their lives.

After the couple figured it out, they each took one and ate it. After the spiritual fruit was fully refined, they looked at least ten years younger.

Xu Qinghe looked at her young parents and clapped her hands excitedly, laughing, "Wow! Mom and Dad, you've become so beautiful!"

“Yes, Mom is so beautiful,” Xu Qingman chimed in.

"Really? Now Liu Meihua next door won't laugh at me for being old and ugly anymore, right?" Xu Meifen said, only to realize that Yu Jinchen was still there. She could only smile awkwardly at him.
