Ms. Dong saw other women praying to gods and Buddhas, and she felt that these people were going a little too far. Seeking immortality was a very mysterious thing. If everyone could practice cultivation and become an immortal, wouldn't the world be so crowded that there would be no place to stand?

Alas, people, it’s because they eat too much. They are so full that they have so many unrealistic ideas.

"Hubby, look at these people. Isn't the atmosphere almost as exciting as the college entrance examination in our place?"

"That's right. If all these people could be selected, then the threshold for cultivating immortals would be too low!"

"Hey, husband, how come you think the same as I do? I think so too. If so many people can be selected, the world of immortal cultivation will be overcrowded!"

Nan Chen asked, "Are you nervous?"

Ms. Dong said, "I, no, I'm not nervous at all. It doesn't matter whether I'm selected or not. Anyway, it doesn't matter where I am, as long as I can be with you and the children, it doesn't matter where I live."

The next morning, the auditions officially began and the people in the queue began to get agitated. Ms. Dong of Nanchen slept in her clothes and would get up immediately if there was any noise.

The person who presided over the audition was a cultivator. His cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi training. So facing the huge crowd, he mobilized his Qi in his Dantian and said with great momentum, "Everyone, don't squeeze or make a mess. Everyone will have a chance to take the test. Next, I will tell you the test rules. First, each family with children of the right age who want to be tested should line up in order to go on stage for the test. Second, those who pass the test should go to the open space on the right to wait, and those who fail should leave directly on the left. They are not allowed to stay or make trouble. Third, each child who passes the test can only be accompanied by two family members, and can also bring one or two servants. Fourth, it is a long journey of 100,000 miles to Xuanzhen Continent. There are many dangers along the way, and you may die on the way. Everyone should think carefully. Maybe many of you will not reach the end and die on the way."

As soon as the monk said this, many elderly people began to back out. If they stayed, they might be able to live a few more years, but if they died on the way, there might not even be anyone to collect their bodies!

The monk then said, "Now, the test begins!"

The other two cultivators each took out a crystal ball for testing spiritual roots. These cultivators represented the officials of Xuanzhen Continent, so the spiritual roots balls they took out were also distributed uniformly by the official authorities.

Under the supervision of government servants, the two families at the front of the line brought a dozen children each to the testing table.

The monks asked the children to put their hands on the spirit-measuring ball one by one. The spirit-measuring ball quickly responded, and a long, thin light came out as if an electric current was flowing through it!

The monk in charge of the test shouted, "Water and fire dual spiritual roots, pass!"

"Mixed spiritual roots, pass!"

As long as one has spiritual roots, the monks will allow them to pass.

There were more than thirty children in the first two families, but only three or four passed in the end!

"Those who didn't pass, please leave quickly and don't cause congestion here!"

Ms. Dong asked Nan Chen, "Is this the beginning?"

"It should be. Go get the children up. Don't sleep any more. Get ready early!"

"Oh, I'll go right away!"

Perhaps Nan Yuanwai was too nervous. His voice was trembling as he spoke. "Nan Chen, why am I so panicked? I always have a bad feeling. Do you think I will really die on the way?"

How should Nan Chen respond to this? "Uncle, you may be too nervous. Why don't you drink some tea to calm down?"

"No, my heart is pounding. I just don't feel good. I won't go and let the kids go!"

"Uncle, have you thought about it? If you miss this chance, you won't have another chance."

"Yes, I've thought about it. If I go, I might die on the way. Forget it, I'd rather not go. I can live a few more years eating and drinking well if I come down!"

Since Mr. Nan has made up his mind, Nan Chen won't try to persuade him any more. It's his own choice of life path, and he can't blame others whether he makes the wrong choice or the right one!

The children passed the test very quickly. In less than half a day, it was Nanchen and his two families' turn.

Mr. Nan had seven grandchildren who took the test. Only the youngest boy, who was four years old, had spiritual roots. The other children did not have any. Mr. Nan asked the children's parents to go with him, and he took all the children back home.

I don’t know if it’s because of the protagonist’s halo or what, but Nan Chen’s four children all have spiritual roots. Nan Ye has a single gold spiritual root, Nan Huai has a single wood spiritual root, and Bai Yucheng also has a spiritual root, but it’s vague and not very clear. The two cultivators discussed for a long time and felt that it might be a rare thunder spiritual root. Anyway, it passed.

Nan Zhaozhao placed her hand on the spirit ball, and a blue water spirit light appeared first, and then the water spirit root quickly retreated. Several other spirit roots of different colors appeared, flashing and almost bursting the spirit ball. The monk quickly took Nan Zhaozhao's hand away and announced, "Mixed spirit roots, passed!"

Nan Chen and his wife brought their children along with the crowd to the right side of the backstage. When they started to share with Nan Yuanwai, Nan Yuanwai handed Nan Chen a few large banknotes, "All four of your children have passed, so you have a lot of places to spend money. I have a few more banknotes here for you to take!"

Nan Chen refused. He didn't want to owe anyone a favor before leaving. "Uncle, I have money. You should take the banknote back and keep it for yourself!"

"I'll give it to you, just take it. Don't worry, both I and my grandson who passed the test have a lot of money. Don't bother with me, just take it, and hurry up!"

There was no other way. Many people were watching, so Nan Chen had to accept it. He couldn't stay backstage for too long. He had only stood there for a short while when the yamen runners came running over to chase him away. "Those who didn't pass the test, leave immediately. Don't stop!"

There were so many people that Mr. Nan and his family were squeezed away by the crowd.

As for the two ox carts of Nanchen's family, the driver who had driven the carts before was the servant of Nan family. Nanchen asked them to follow Nan Yuanwai back. Nanchen certainly could not drive two ox carts by himself, so he drove the two oxen together and combined the things on the two ox carts into one ox cart.

It would be much easier if two oxen pulled a cart.

The ox cart had a cover. After putting all the things together, Nan Zhaozhao put most of the things into the space and left a few things outside to hide them from others. In this way, their whole family could still sit there.

When Shangguan Hong came, he was very surprised to see that Nanchen's whole family was together!

"Nanchen, have all your children passed the test?"

Nan Chen nodded casually, "Ah, they all passed. How about your family, did the children pass?"

After one night, the queue was already eight or nine miles away.
