The Old Ancestor Emerges from Seclusion, Double Happiness Arrives

With the completion of the Purple Moon Boat, the Yang Household has gained a significant advantage. Moreover, with this foundation, once the Old Ancestor breaks through to the Golden Core Realm and elevates his Artifact Refining skills to the Third Tier, the Purple Moon Boat will soon be upgraded to Third-Tier Flying Boat. At that time, it will truly be the king of the battlefield.

Sunrise and sunset, time flies by, and ten months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the annual Spirit Root Testing Assembly was held once again, and Purple Moon Town was bustling with activity.

A constant stream of people converged on the central area of Purple Moon Town, like rivers flowing into the sea, its bustling popularity like oil being poured on a raging fire, a scene of vibrant prosperity.

After six years of development and recuperation, and encouraged by the birth policy introduced by the Yang Household, the population of Purple Moon Town has experienced explosive growth.

The number of people has surged from over 87,000 to Nineteen.

Of course, a large portion of them were migrants from other places. The Yang Household accepted all comers, as long as they had no bad deeds or misdeeds and could pass the heart test.

Of these 100,000 new people, about 20,000 are children aged six to eight.

Among them, about 10,000 people have the surname Yang.

The reason for such a high proportion is that Yang Household Members are generally wealthier.

With the support of their master, a Mortal Yang could often marry several women, and it was not uncommon for him to have many wives and concubines.

Fortunately, among the refugees, there were few other things to see, but unmarried young women were plentiful.

There was no need for the Yang Household to force them; many people were eager to marry their daughters into the Yang Household Member, since having this connection would make them more successful in various industries in Purple Moon Town.

Otherwise, you'll be ostracized no matter what you do, and the saying "doing twice the work for half the result" isn't just a joke.

This is why, although the Yang Household Mortals at the beginning, now there are nearly 200,000 Mortals, 90% of whom are related to the Yang Household, and the remaining 10% are also looking for opportunities to establish a connection with the Yang Household.

That said, the rules of the Yang Household's Spirit Root Testing Assembly are as follows: starting from the age of six, everyone, regardless of whether they are Yang Household Member or Different Surname, has the opportunity to have their Spirit Roots tested.

Each person can be tested once a year, up to three times, in order to minimize the occurrence of testing errors.

After all, there have been cases in previous years where someone didn't test positive for Spirit Roots the first time, but did on the second or third time.

These young men and women, whose Spirit Roots were determined, were divided into two groups based on their bloodlines.

The first part states that all those with Yang Household blood, regardless of their previous surname, will change their surname to Yang and be included in the Lineage.

Those boys who can trace their ancestry back to within five generations are ranked according to the sixteenth generation of the Yang Household. If not, they are all thrown into the Xuan Generation. Little Fatty Yang Xuanyang is one such case.

The Yang Household uses a generational naming system, with each generation lasting twenty years. This system is specifically designed for family members who are unclear about their generational ranking.

After being included in the Clan Genealogy, these young men and women surnamed Yang will enter the Lineage Academy to learn Cultivation Method and complete various learning tasks. At the same time, they will receive a considerable Lineage stipend every year.

The second part consists of those who do not have the Yang Household bloodline.

After these young men and women have their Spirit Roots determined, the Yang Household will offer them two choices.

First, they would become vassals of the Yang Household, and upon reaching adulthood, they would be required to marry into the Yang Household Member, and their offspring would also have to take the surname Yang.

The treatment of these people is generally no different from that of the first group of people of the Yang bloodline.

However, after they have achieved Qi Refining, they need to make Heart Demon Oath and keep their previous promises.

Second, he can explore the path of cultivation on his own. Whether he stays or leaves, the Yang Household will not interfere; they will neither help nor suppress him.

Of course, for 99% of people, the first option would be the most likely choice.

After all, if they had a choice, why would they come to the Spirit Root Testing Assembly to have their Spirit Roots tested?

If you have Cultivator in your family, you can just test it directly; there's no need for all this trouble.

Almost Mortal teenagers who participate in the Spirit Root Testing Assembly have Mortal.

The crowd gathered in the central area, and as far as the eye could see, there was a sea of people.

Amidst the clamor of voices, thirty magnificent rainbows descended from the horizon, eliciting gasps of admiration.

"It's the Immortal Master! Hurry, hurry, push forward! I want to see our child's Spirit Root tested with my own eyes!" A middle-aged man dressed in fine silk and satin, behaving like a wealthy man, shouted at his servants to push through the crowd.

"It's Master Yang Si, he's here too. But isn't he Yang Household Member? Why doesn't he just have the Immortal Master test his Spirit Root?"

Someone recognized the portly middle-aged man and asked, puzzled.

An old man beside the man chuckled and replied, "It's obvious you don't understand the difference between immortals and mortals. Even if there's a blood connection, once someone becomes Immortal Master, they distance themselves from us Mortals. It's not something you can just see whenever you want, unless you're the Immortal Master's own son."

"As far as I know, none of Master Yang's ancestors were Immortal Masters."

"So that's how it is! I've learned something new!"

Amidst the deafening noise, two long rows of teenagers began to walk towards the square.

Some of them were clueless and innocent.

Some of the teenagers were precocious and understood the meaning of the words "Immortal Master," so they appeared extremely nervous.

On the stage, Yang Tianxue and Yang Tianwang stood with their hands behind their backs, calmly looking at the crowded people below.

Then, Yang Tianwang raised his hand, and his voice, amplified by Spiritual Power, instantly spread throughout the entire area.

"Quiet!"

Brush!

Under the invisible pressure, the entire room fell silent.

"The Spirit Root Testing Assembly shall now begin!" Yang Tianxue in a cool and aloof tone.

The thirty Qi Refining cultivators behind her stepped forward, divided into four areas, each holding a six-sided Spirit-Testing Mirror.

Thirty people, one hundred and eighty Spirit-Testing Mirrors, all of which are First-Tier Low-Grade Law Artifacts.

After the spirit test began, Yang Tianxue and Yang Tianwang started chatting telepathically.

"Fourth Sister, how many people with Spirit Roots do you think will emerge this time?"

Yang Tianxue thought for a moment, "About fifteen people!"

"So many? I think there are at most ten people."

After all, the age range for the Spirit Root Testing Assembly is between six and eight years old.

Among them, the seven- and eight-year-old boys had already had their Spirit Roots tested. Although it was possible that some might have been missed, the chances were really slim.

Yang Tianwang shook his head, disagreeing with his Fourth Sister's opinion.

Yang Tianxue raised her eyebrows slightly and explained with a smile, "Fifteenth Brother, don't forget something. It's been exactly six years since we rebuilt Purple Moon Town!"

"Six years is just enough time for a new batch of people to grow up. Haven't you noticed that more than half of these 20,000 people are six-year-olds?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianwang released his Spiritual Awareness and swept it across the square once more.

A moment later, he slapped his forehead, gave a wry smile, and said, "Fourth Sister is so meticulous; my brain..."

However, Yang Tianwang quickly cheered up, "So, does that mean our Lineage will have a large influx of fresh blood at this Spirit Root Testing Assembly?"

"Yes, it should be true if nothing unexpected happens!" Yang Tianxue also seemed very happy.

Time passed, and one by one, the young men nervously approached the Spirit-Testing Mirror. However, apart from the one in a thousand lucky ones, the others all left disappointed.

Especially those children who are already eight years old, they are older and understand better what kind of opportunity this is.

Becoming Cultivator is Bloodline Metamorphosis akin to a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate.

However, Spirit Roots are not something you can have just by wanting them; it all depends on fate!

Crying and shouting, one by one, the unwilling teenagers were pulled off the Spirit-Testing Platform.

Of course, besides these children without Spirit Roots, there are also those who occasionally succeed in having their Spirit Roots detected.

These children, and not only the children themselves, but also their parents and elders, wept with joy.

Some elderly people even fainted from excitement.

It's no wonder they acted this way; the significance of Cultivator is simply too great.

Once one possesses Spirit Root, one can change the Destiny of oneself and even one's entire family. It is no exaggeration to say that when one attains enlightenment, even one's chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Two hours passed, Spirit Root Testing Assembly was halfway through.

At this moment, Yang Tianxue, who was paying close attention to the situation off the field, suddenly narrowed her Shen Yi.

Following her gaze, one could see a Yang Household Members below, who was in charge of spirit testing, gradually becoming dazed, as if he had seen something extraordinary.

On the Spirit-Testing Mirror in front of him, an ice crystal lotus was slowly blooming.

In front of the mirror, a pretty little girl stood there, bewildered, not understanding why the Uncle's expression had suddenly changed.

Seeing this, Yang Tianxue hurriedly came to the scene, and with a wave of her sleeve, she used her Spiritual Power to seal the mouth of that Yang Household Members.

Then she grabbed the little girl, wielded the Chi-Li Twin Swords, and transformed into a rainbow of light, flying towards Purple Moon Mountain.

Backstage, Yang Tianwang immediately realized something and, while maintaining order at the scene, sent a message to Yang Tianyou.

At the Purple Moon Mountain, Bamboo House, Yang Haoyu sat cross-legged, surrounded by an immense pressure that made anyone who looked at him feel as if they were facing the vast, desolate mountains.

A pair of deep pupils slowly opened, and amidst the swirling Spiritual Qi, Yang Haoyu's aura grew increasingly heavy.

Click!

Suddenly, a thunderclap rang out in the clear sky, Dark Clouds gathered, and the Will of Heaven and Earth began to watch over this place.

"Snort!"

Seeing this, Yang Haoyu grunted and activated a Secret Method he had prepared beforehand to delay the arrival of the Tribulation Lightning.

A quarter of an hour later, she murmured, "I still have a month to prepare!"

Inside the courtyard, in the Seclusion Chamber, Yang Tianyou was engaged in deep cultivation.

A Communication Talisman flew in, and his eyelids trembled slightly as he opened his eyes.

With a sweep of his Spiritual Awareness, a sharp Blade Intent surged into the sky, and the Spiritual Qi in the stone chamber was thrown into chaos.

As the fluctuations in Spiritual Qi gradually subsided, Yang Tianyou's figure had already disappeared.

Outside Purple Moon Mountain, a silver starlight streaked across the sky, and as it sped forward, Yang Tianxue's figure soon came into view.

The latter also noticed Yang Tianyou, and immediately felt relieved. He quickly stepped forward and handed the little girl he was holding to him.

"Born with Ice Spirit Root!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou's expression turned solemn. He reached out his hand, and under the little girl's timid gaze, a gentle Spiritual Power entered her brow.

After a moment, Yang Tianyou's expression hardened. "Back to the mountain!"
