Spring goes and autumn comes, and five years have passed quickly.
Huludao, a secret room.
Han Changming sat cross-legged on a green cushion with his eyes slightly closed. Countless red and yellow spots of light floated in the stone chamber, like fireflies, flying towards Han Changming's body.
After a while, the red and yellow spots of light flowed into his body and disappeared.
Han Changming opened his eyes, his eyes full of joy, and said to himself: "I have finally entered the middle stage of foundation building."
He used the Taiyi Hualing Gourd to purify the grade of elixirs, and after five years of hard practice, he finally advanced to the middle stage of foundation building. Having said that, he didn't practice much after entering the foundation building stage, and he was always running around outside. There were too many trivial matters before, and there were relatively few foundation building practitioners in the family, so Han Changming was delayed for a few years.
He didn't think it was troublesome. It was his duty to contribute to the family. As there were more and more foundation-building cultivators in the family, he could also spare some time to concentrate on cultivation.
"According to the time, Fu'er should be five years old. With the blessing of the ancestors, she must have spiritual roots."
Han Changming muttered to himself, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
If Han Fu had no spiritual roots, she would have to be sent to Qingluo Island to live with her grandparents. Han Zhangxiang's youngest son and great-grandson had no spiritual roots, so they were both sent to live with mortals.
Han Changming opened the door of the secret room and walked out.
A cup of tea later, he appeared on a bluestone square in the martial arts hall.
Today is the day for testing spiritual roots. Five-year-old members of the tribe will test their spiritual roots here. Only after the age of five can it be tested whether one has spiritual roots.
Han Debiao was responsible for testing the spiritual roots, and the Han family's young children lined up to be tested one by one.
Ye Xue and other family members stood aside, looking nervous.
Han Changming used the Taiyi Hualing Gourd to improve the quality of the foundation-building pill and let Ye Xue take it. Ye Xue has already entered the foundation-building stage, and she has also changed her practice and is practicing the Wanlang Jue.
"Next, Han Fu."
A delicate and pretty girl in red walked out from the crowd. She was wearing a red lotus skirt and had a chubby face, which made her look quite cute.
A member of the Han family brought Han Fu into the yard, and Han Debiao was responsible for testing her spiritual roots.
In order to protect the tribe members, only the direct relatives and individual elders of the tribe know the spiritual roots of the tribe members. No one else knows. If the attributes of the spiritual roots are known by the enemy, they will suffer in the battle.
"Hello, uncle. Your grandson greets you."
Han Fu walked into the house and saluted Han Debiao who was sitting on the main seat.
"Good boy, let your uncle test you to see if you have spiritual roots."
As Han Debiao spoke, he took out a crystal clear green ruler with nine scales on it, representing the nine spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice and darkness.
He injected magic power into the spirit measuring ruler, and a large piece of white light flew out and covered Han Fu.
Han Fu looked a little nervous. Ye Xue had told her that people with spiritual roots and those without spiritual roots were treated differently, and she didn't want to be separated from her parents.
Not long after, two blue and red lights appeared on the spirit measuring ruler, with the red light being more dazzling.
Time passed little by little, and there were only two rays of blue and red on the spirit measuring ruler.
"Dual spiritual roots of wood and fire!"
Han Debiao sucked in a breath of cold air, looking a little excited. Over the years, he had tested hundreds of children from the Han family, but this was the first time he had detected dual spiritual roots.
Han Fu blinked and asked cautiously, "Uncle, do I have spiritual roots?"
"Yes, yes, haha, God bless our Han family, Han Fu, no, I'm going to give you a generation name, Han Benfu, Benfu, you can go out now, remember, except for your parents, you are not allowed to tell anyone else about your spiritual root attributes, understand?"
Han Debiao said this with a pleasant face, looking very excited.
"Okay, I'm going out now. Goodbye, uncle."
She agreed and turned away.
Seeing Han Fu coming out, Ye Xue hurriedly walked over and asked with concern: "How is it? Fu'er, do you have spiritual roots?"
Han Fu smiled sweetly and said, "Mom, I have spiritual roots, and I can also cultivate immortality."
"That's great. If your father knew, he would definitely be very happy."
Ye Xue held Han Fu in her arms and walked out.
As soon as they returned to their residence, they saw Han Changming.
"How is it? Madam, what is Fu'er's spiritual root?"
When Han Changming saw Ye Xue and Han Fu’s happy faces, he knew that Han Fu had spiritual roots.
"Fuer, tell your father what your spiritual roots are?"
As Ye Xue spoke, she handed Han Fu to Han Changming.
"Dad, my uncle said I have dual spiritual roots of wood and fire. Are my spiritual roots good?"
Han Changming was stunned at first, and asked in disbelief: "Fuer, you didn't lie to me, did you? Do you really have the dual spiritual roots of wood and fire?"
As far as Han Changming knew, there had never been anyone in the family with double spiritual roots, most of them had triple spiritual roots.
He originally thought that it was good enough that Han Fu had three spiritual roots, but he never expected that Han Fu actually had two spiritual roots.
Wood gives birth to fire. Han Fu, no, that should be Han Benfu. She can practice fire-attributed techniques. The most suitable for her is dual-attribute techniques, but the Han family does not have dual-attribute techniques.
"Of course, Dad, I can also cultivate immortality. In the future, I will be more powerful than you."
Han Changming scratched Han Benfu's nose lovingly and said with a smile: "Haha, you are worthy of being your father's daughter. You are ambitious. Madam, we should congratulate you."
"What's the good news? Husband, sister."
Ye Xin's voice suddenly rang out, and she opened the door and walked out.
Ye Xin changed to practice Wanlang Jue and has already cultivated to the fourth level. When Han Changming hunted the Snow Cloud Python before, he obtained some Ice Spirit Crystals. Ye Xin used Han Changming's accumulated contribution points to exchange for Ice Spirit Crystals, and refined the icy air contained in the Ice Spirit Crystals to release cold air to hurt the enemy.
"Sister, Fu'er has dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, dual spiritual roots!"
Ye Xue looked a little excited and said with a smile.
As parents, they all hope that their children will become successful, and Ye Xue is no exception.
She was originally a casual cultivator. By chance, she met Han Changming, and married him with Ye Xin. She did not give birth to a daughter for Han Changming.
Han Benfu possesses dual spiritual roots, and Ye Xue's status will also rise.
Ye Xin smiled and nodded, saying, "This is a good thing! Let's celebrate it tonight."
Ye Xin looked at Han Benfu in Han Changming's arms and felt a little uncomfortable. She had slept with Han Changming many times but she just couldn't get pregnant.
She and Ye Xue entered the door at the same time. Ye Xue's daughter was already five years old, but her stomach was still not moving. In contrast, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Han Changming hugged Ye Xin and said with a smile: "That's right, we should celebrate it properly. Fuer, when you grow up, don't forget Auntie. We are a family, understand?"
In order to make it easier to distinguish them, Han Benfu called Ye Xin "Auntie" and Ye Xue "Mother".
"Got it, Dad."
Han Benfu smiled sweetly and agreed.
That night, Han Changming's family of four had a good meal and did not invite any outsiders.
After dinner, Han Changming came to Qianhu Peak and told Han Daohe about Han Benfu's spiritual roots.
"What? Dual spiritual roots of wood and fire? Good, good, good, great, God bless our Han family."
Han Daohe was very excited. This was the first dual spiritual root cultivator to appear in the Han family in more than 600 years.
