Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

In the grand hall, after hearing the words, Qin Ming faintly connected them with a familiar figure.

But he did not interrupt Nalan Xi’s words and just listened to her continue:

"This person, whether in courage or skill, far surpasses any in the demonic path before. He originally did not belong to any demon sect."

"Yet he rose to power in just a few decades, and now his cultivation has broken through to the late-stage Golden Core realm... becoming the highest in cultivation among the Six Demonic Sects."

"Of course, Fellow Daoist Qin, things may be quite different now that you’ve returned..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming immediately asked bluntly, "Is that person’s name Lin Zixiao?"

Nalan Xi and Guu Qingzhao exchanged a glance and were stunned on the spot.

"Uh... that’s right."

"Could it be... Fellow Daoist Qin knows this Demon Owl?" Guu Qingzhao asked in surprise.

Qin Ming nodded slowly, "Mm, that’s right. We not only know each other, but Qin and he were neighbors for a few years at Qingyang Market."

Afterward, he began to recount to them the past grudges and grievances with Lin Zixiao, omitting some inconvenient details.

Listening to Qin Ming’s detailed account truly surprised the two women.

"I did not expect Fellow Daoist Qin to have such enmity and grudges with this unmatched Demon Owl." Nalan Xi, after listening, remained unable to calm down for a long time.

Guu Qingzhao hesitated for a moment, then asked, "So what is Fellow Daoist Qin’s cultivation after this return?"

As she was about to face such a ruthless and supreme cultivation of the Demon Owl, she felt a bit worried.

"Golden Core Perfection." Qin Ming stated plainly.

Buzz~

Despite being hard to believe, hearing it confirmed from Qin Ming himself left their minds blank and they couldn’t recover for a long time.

Their gazes toward Qin Ming became even more complex.

Besides sincere congratulations, there was also intense envy.

Moreover, with him presiding in the Four Southern Wilderness Countries, it was considered a relief, and they no longer had to struggle to hold on.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Qin, for being only one step away from the Nascent Soul Dao, truly commendable." The two women once again congratulated him.

Qin Ming smiled lightly, without excessive modesty.

Because they might not know, he returned this time to prepare for forming a Nascent Soul in the Southern Wilderness.

In their understanding, even if Qin Ming reached Golden Core Perfection, exploring the Nascent Soul Realm within a hundred or eighty years would still be extremely challenging.

After all, when Golden Core cultivators strive for the Nascent Soul stage, it requires not only talent and opportunity but also enormous resources and fortune.

This is why there are countless seekers along the Great Dao, but so few actually achieve it.

Amidst the conversation, Qin Ming waved his hand.

A flash of blood appeared, and two huge black pig heads rolled to the ground.

Then he cast a spell toward the heads on the ground, releasing a spell.

Whoosh!

The two huge beast heads burst open like watermelons, revealing a dark crystal shard from within, emanating a nauseating stench.

Complex runes were engraved on it.

Qin Ming beckoned with a hand, drawing the demon crystal before him to examine it, and said to the two women with great certainty:

"From my perspective, this beast tide is different from the past; there must be someone manipulating it from behind the scenes."

Nalan Xi and Guu Qingzhao, witnessing this scene, could not agree more, their eyes filled with serious contemplation.

"In my view, it’s more than likely to be the work of that demonic Lin Zixiao. Qin’s return this time is also to resolve this matter thoroughly." Qin Ming’s gaze turned slightly cold as he clenched the void, turning the black crystal in the air into dust.

He was well aware that Lin Zixiao’s fortune was significant, possessing an old grandfather within him... indeed not to be underestimated.

After exchanging thoughts with the two women for half a day, Qin Ming roughly grasped the situation in the Southern Wilderness.

Then he did not linger any longer and intended to bid farewell.

Before leaving, Guu Qingzhao suddenly came over to Qin Ming, deeply bowing with sincere gratitude: "For dozens of years, thank you Fellow Daoist Qin for taking care of our pavilion’s business in the Great Jin; otherwise, it wouldn’t have developed so quickly."

"Old Jia told me that if not for Fellow Daoist Qin, the business of Mirror Snow Pavilion wouldn’t be where it is today."

"Hehe! Fellow Daoist Guu, there’s no need to be polite. We each took what we needed, and I benefited a lot as well."

"Furthermore, when I return to the Great Jin someday, I will still use this identity with the Mirror Snow Pavilion." Qin Ming smiled lightly.

"Will Fellow Daoist Qin leave again...? Indeed, with your capabilities, the trivial Southern Wilderness wouldn’t confine you..." Guu Qingzhao said with a slight touch of dejection.

Qin Ming exchanged a few words with her without minding her reaction, then once again released the Lingxiao Imperial Carriage, transforming into a multicolored stream of light as he left the Vast Sea Immortal City.

Nalan Xi and Guu Qingzhao watched Qin Ming’s departure, their eyes filled with complexity, silent for a long time.

At the same time.

Inside Vast Sea Immortal City, the explosive news of the return of the Southern Wilderness’s legendary cultivator had already spread throughout the city.

"What?! The Isle Master of Wangyue Island has returned?"

"That’s right! It was Master Wangyue who killed the Black-Maned Demon King with just one move."

"What kind of terrifying power is this? It’s probably reached the late-stage Golden Core, right?"

"More than that, didn’t you see how mighty that Giant Crocodile Demon Beast pulling the carriage was? At least a Tier Three Mid-Stage Demon King."

"Some people even said that Master Qin was closing the Life and Death Barrier, but it seems those were just rumors!"

"With that instant kill of the Black-Maned Demon King, dispersing the beast tide, even if one said the Nascent Soul True Monarch descended, I would believe it!"

"With the powerful return of Master Qin, maybe our Southern Wilderness’s great disaster can be resolved..."
