Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: An honest man at first glance

"…Why is the common name more like the scientific name than the scientific name?" Lu Yang complained in a low voice behind him.

"Because the first pure Yang spiritual root senior called his spiritual root a single spiritual root." Yun Zhi's cultivation was unfathomable, and Lu Yang's low voice was no different from talking in her ear, and she could hear it clearly.

Yun Zhi paused, and then said: "The cultivation world has the habit of respecting single seniors."

It seems that saying this sentence more can enhance the persuasiveness.

Meng Jingzhou naturally passed the first level, and after Meng Jingzhou it was Lu Yang.

"Huh?! Another single spiritual root?!" Dai Bufan's pupils shrank slightly. He just complained that he had been busy for most of the day and didn't encounter a single spiritual root, and now there are two in a row.

"Me, single spiritual root?" Lu Yang pointed at himself, his heart pounding, and he always felt that he had auditory hallucinations, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.

"Yes, you are a variant single spiritual root, a sword spiritual root." Dai Bufan nodded affirmatively. He had never made a mistake in touching the root bone.

Sword spirit root, born with sword spirit, unstoppable, the strongest attack!

Senior sister Yunzhi looked at Lu Yang with a little surprise. She agreed to ride the carriage just casually, but she didn't expect that the two people in the carriage were both top cultivation geniuses.

Everyone's eyes became more and more eager, and they began to consider girls of the same age as Lu Yang, wishing to kidnap Lu Yang to marry into the power behind them.

Unlike Meng Jingzhou who was backed by the Meng family, Lu Yang was obviously born a mortal and had no support behind him.

With excellent talent and no power, he was simply the best candidate for marriage.

The most important thing was to get married and have children!

Lu Yang felt that everyone looked at him strangely, so he quickly entered the second level.

Behind Dai Bufan was a bamboo forest, and the second level was held in this bamboo forest.

"How is it, what spirit root are you?" Meng Jingzhou quickly walked out of the shadow of a single spirit root and asked Lu Yang with interest.

So what if he has only one spiritual root? There are many dead bones on the road to becoming an immortal. Women are nothing but skeletons. He doesn't need beautiful fairies around him!

On the contrary, although Lu Yang can pass the first level, there is only one person with such extraordinary talent as himself. Lu Yang is only at the level of double spiritual roots.

As a genius with a single spiritual root, he should care about mediocre geniuses.

"Sword spiritual root."

"Damn it."

"Huh?" Lu Yang was confused.

After half a day, the people behind entered the second level one after another. Dai Bufan eliminated those whose roots did not meet the standards.

Listening to the discussion of the people behind, it seems that several people with special physiques have appeared. Before they had time to inquire about the specific situation, the eldest sister Yunzhi appeared in front of everyone, lightly said "Let's start the second level", and then disappeared directly, causing everyone to be puzzled.

The thick fog gradually rose, like smoke and waves, as vast as water, like a huge gauze net covering everything in the bamboo forest.

Everyone subconsciously wanted to struggle, but it didn't work. They were powerless and their consciousness gradually sank.

This was the illusion bamboo forest, which was part of the sect protection formation. How could they resist it?

Yun Zhi drew a circle casually, dispelled the fog, and made room for the disciples of the sect to stand behind her.

Dai Bufan laughed and said, "Being trapped in the illusion bamboo forest will make them forget their identity, the test, and everything, and make the most real reaction. I just don't know how many people can pass the second level this time."

"I hope more people can pass. There are several good seedlings in this batch. It's a pity to lose them in the second level."

Yun Zhi has not kicked Meng Jingzhou and Lu Yang out of the test because the test questions Meng Jingzhou got were not from this year, but from 20 years ago.

"I don't know which elder sold it."

"Who do you think can pass the second level, Junior Brother Dai?"

"Of course it's the ancient barbarian tribe. The ancient barbarian tribe is famous for its simple hearts and unquestionable character."

"I think the single spiritual root and sword spiritual root are also good. They are honest people at first glance."

Yun Zhi thought of the scene where Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou discussed how to cheat in the carriage, and felt that the two of them were not honest people at all.

...

"Where am I?" The strong man of the ancient barbarian tribe was named Man Gu. He looked around in confusion and forgot what had just happened.

He stood by the river with a worn-out axe in his hand. The river was sparkling and beautiful.

Man Gu's hand slipped and the worn-out axe fell into the river. Man Gu just wanted to fish it out, but he saw bubbles bubbling up in the river. The bubbles became more and more and bigger, and the fountain surged up. A fairy-like fairy appeared, with three axes of different styles floating in front of him.

"Young man, I am He Ling. Was it this worn-out axe, this spiritual weapon, the Mountain-Splitting Axe, or this immortal weapon, the Heaven-Splitting Axe?"

The Spiritual Weapon, the Mountain-Splitting Axe, and the Immortal Weapon, the Heaven-Splitting Axe, these are two axes that are famous in the Central Continent. Even if a mortal has no talent, once he obtains these two axes, he can soar to the sky and become a giant.

Man Gu blurted out: "It's a worn-out axe."

He Ling smiled: "You are such an honest young man. Then all three axes will be given to you."

Man Gu passed the second level.

"Look, I said that Man Gu would definitely pass the second level. Let me see how the single spiritual root and the sword spiritual root are chosen." Dai Bufan watched with great interest.

The second level tests honesty, and the standard for passing the level is to obtain three axes.

He Ling is not an illusion. He was born in a small river surrounded by bamboo forests. He is a creature born and raised by nature.

He has countless incarnations, enters the illusion, and tests everyone.

The river spirit likes honest people. There is only one way to pass the second level, which is to answer the river spirit's questions honestly and let the river spirit give three axes.

"Huh? How did the axe fall into the river?" Lu Yang was a little surprised. He felt like there was an inexplicable force forcing him to drop the axe.

He Ling appeared again and asked Lu Yang gently: "Young man, I am He Ling. Did you drop this worn-out axe, this spiritual weapon, the Mountain-Splitting Axe, or this immortal weapon, the Heaven-Splitting Axe?"

Lu Yang squatted down, his eyes swept through the three different axes, and looked up at He Ling as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person, with pity in his eyes: "Two of the axes are yours. Don't you know which two axes you have? Why are you asking me?"

He Ling's smile was stiff. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, so she had to follow Lu Yang's words and said: "I really don't know which two axes are mine."

Lu Yang looked at He Ling vigilantly: "Then if I choose an axe, don't suddenly recover your memory and say that you remember which two axes are yours."

"Absolutely not." He Ling said confidently.

"Show me all three axes."

He Ling handed all three axes to Lu Yang.

Lu Yang threw all the axes into the river: "Ask the question again?"

He Ling asked reflexively: "Was it the old axe you dropped, or the spiritual axe, or the immortal axe?"

Lu Yang smiled: "All of them were dropped by me."

He Ling: "..."

He Ling gritted his teeth and said: "You are such an honest young man, I will give you all three axes."
