Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

In an instant, the originally dim shadow of Qingyang the Old Demon’s soul body became significantly more solid.

Qingyang the Old Demon immediately felt a flourishing sense of vitality surging in, revitalizing his spirit to an extreme degree!

"Fellow Daoist Qin, it actually works!"

"More, give me more!"

Just as he was overwhelmed with excitement, the Four Seasons Divine Light in Qin Ming’s hand suddenly stopped, retracting back.

Qingyang the Old Demon was startled, "Fellow Daoist Qin, what do you mean by this? I risked my life to help you fend off the Celestial Tribulation!"

"I bled and fought for you, and now my Divine Soul is in your hands, what is there to be worried about?"

Qin Ming chuckled, "This Four Seasons Divine Light is extremely rare, and it takes me a long time to gather just a few strands, wasting them all on you isn’t worthwhile."

"Unless you can show value that interests me, why not tell me about your background?"

Upon hearing this, Qingyang the Old Demon seemed to have some unspeakable secrets, and after pondering silently, he changed to another request:

"Then let me rest on that Star Sea Divine Vine for a while to cultivate my Divine Soul, wouldn’t that be fine?"

Qin Ming nodded in agreement, "That can be done."

After all, Qingyang the Old Demon had indeed rendered great service during his tribulation, so fulfilling a small request was reasonable.

Subsequently, the spirit body of Qingyang the Old Demon floated out from the Blood Massacre and settled onto the brilliant Divine Vine, sitting down to recover.

The effect of repairing the Divine Soul, although not as evident as the Four Seasons Divine Light, also nourished his spirit body and Divine Soul slowly.

Next.

He took out a jade scroll obtained from True Monarch Dragon Wood and began to browse; it contained the method for cultivating the Tier Four Spirit Rice known as Blood Flood Dragon Green Rice.

If this kind of Spirit Rice could be cultivated, it would greatly aid Qin Ming’s future Nascent Soul Stage cultivation.

He could also update his Entry, curious about what kind of Entry the Tier Four Spirit Rice might offer.

"Prerequisites for early-stage cultivation of Blood Flood Dragon Green Rice: Tier Four Spirit Vein environment, Cyan Sky Spirit Soil, Profound Yellow Essence Qi, Earth Spirit Spring, late-stage Tier Three or higher, Essence Blood and Life Soul of snake or flood dragon-like Demon Beasts..."

After reading the jade scroll, Qin Ming found out that cultivating this Tier Four Middle-Grade Spirit Rice was indeed exceptionally complex and challenging.

The spiritual objects listed to cultivate this rice were certainly not available in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm.

He would have to make efforts to gather them from the outside world.

This Tier Four Middle-Grade Spirit Rice cannot be mass-produced, as the spiritual materials required for cultivation are extremely rare and have many restrictions.

It’s even calculated on a per-plant basis.

Subsequently, Qin Ming made a list of these items and had Wei Wuya send people to keep a close watch.

After all, Qin Ming, now exalted as a Nascent Soul big shot, didn’t need to bother with such matters himself anymore.

The entire Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm relied on him as the Nascent Soul True Monarch to maintain order, so he naturally enjoyed the due tributes.

A specific treasury was established within the Four Nations Alliance, where various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures gathered from various places would be stored for Qin Ming’s cultivation.

However, the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm was indeed too impoverished, and Qin Ming didn’t expect them to obtain any high-grade items.

Qin Ming was like a hands-off shopkeeper, without holding any official positions in any force, passing through myriad flowers without a single leaf clinging to him.

He had no worries, unlike other Nascent Soul True Monarchs with all sorts of concerns.

Therefore, Qin Ming remained a lone wanderer, coming and going as he pleased, living a truly carefree life.

For the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, just having his title as Nascent Soul True Monarch was enough to deter all threats.

"Fight life and death for the Southern Wilderness? That’s nonexistent..."

...

Days after the Grand Ceremony.

In a hidden place in the Beast Roar Mountain Range on Wei Country’s border, True Monarch Ghostly Sand, who had recently left the Nascent Soul Ceremony, was secretly communicating with Master Lihuo.

Clad in a yellow robe, True Monarch Ghostly Sand had a slender figure and sharp eyes. He raised his hand to cast a barrier, then spoke very earnestly to Master Lihuo:

"So, Old Ghost Lihuo, how about my proposal?"

"If you don’t have the heart, I can make the first move."

"That newly ascended True Monarch Wangyue possesses the Demon Pill of the Nether Water Giant Snake, a rare item for sure, and if it’s missed, it won’t come around again at this village."

"Besides that, there are a few valuable treasures; the opportunity is fleeting!"

"I’ve already investigated thoroughly; he has no sect or clan, except for knowing those two Demon Saints, he has no other connections."

"As long as it’s done flawlessly, a loose cultivator’s Nascent Soul like him has no one to avenge him."

"With our combined strength, even if he has passed the Earth Demon Celestial Tribulation, he’s still a newly ascended Nascent Soul, unable to masterly adapt to the Nascent Soul Dharma Power Realm after just a few years of acclimatization, not to mention mastering artifacts."

After hearing this, Master Lihuo’s face suddenly darkened.

"I was wondering why you approached me privately, and it turns out to be for this."

"Fellow Daoist Ghostly Sand, let’s not talk about this again; I absolutely won’t cooperate with you."

"Not to mention the recent peace talks between the Human Race and the Demon Race, preparing for deeper cooperation. At this critical moment, you want to target Fellow Daoist Qin, an important link, I could never agree to that."

"Moreover, considering our years-long acquaintance, a reminder, Fellow Daoist Ghostly Sand, though True Monarch Wangyue has just passed the Thunder Tribulation, his Divine Techniques should not be underestimated."

"Even I can’t fathom his depths, and there’s an uneasy feeling of apprehension."

"If you fail to hit the mark and he escapes, you’ll be facing his wrath."

"A loose cultivator’s Nascent Soul, with no ties or worries, exacting revenge could be unimaginably terrifying."

"Your disciples and grandchildren combined wouldn’t be enough for him to kill."

"Treasures are alluring, but think twice before acting."

"I’ve said all I have to say, do as you see fit."

"I need to go back to handle palace matters, so I’ll take my leave."

Then, Master Lihuo said no more, transformed into a crimson rainbow, and disappeared into the sky.

True Monarch Ghostly Sand gazed silently in the direction Master Lihuo left, his sallow face showing some discontent.

"My Netherworld Heavy Water Scripture has reached a critical point. If I had that special water attribute Demon Pill of the Nether Water Giant Snake, I could definitely break through to the Mid-stage Nascent Soul, and then who could stand against me?"

"Old Ghost Lihuo is becoming more cowardly with age. If you won’t do it, I’ll find someone else to cooperate with, hmph!"

As True Monarch Ghostly Sand pondered, a bright idea suddenly lit up in his mind, recalling someone.

...

Half a year passed again.

On this day.

Qin Ming was tending to the herbs and Spirit Plants in the main peak’s medicinal garden.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat carried the Divine Hoe, following him to assist, acting as manual labor.

According to Qin Ming, it had been eating and drinking too well lately and needed appropriate exercise.

After all, it hadn’t been shy about eating those Spirit Medicines and Spirit Fruits.

While working.

Qin Ming’s Divine Thought moved, and a smile appeared on his face:

"Heaven-Devouring Rat, stop what you’re doing, a guest has arrived, go welcome them for me."

"They’re five hundred miles northwest of the Spirit Nest Islands."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat grinned instantly, tossing the Divine Hoe aside: "Yes, Master, I’ll go greet them right away."

"Who is it? What kind of reception should be arranged?"

"It’s Su Yuqing and Hua Tianxiong," Qin Ming replied.

"I understand!" the Heaven-Devouring Rat patted its chest promptly.

It then called upon the Profound Water Crocodile, summoning the Lingxiao Imperial Carriage, letting it pull the carriage upfront, with eight Jade Wave Sea Horses clearing the path, emitting multicolored treasure light, transforming into a grand stream of light, and gradually vanishing into the sky above the Spirit Island...

...

On the outskirts of the Spirit Nest Islands.

In the Golden Imperial Carriage, the space was spacious, only occupied by Su Yuqing and Hua Tianxiong.

"Alas! I’ve been closing myself off for a long time to refine pills, missing Brother Qin’s Nascent Soul Ceremony, regrettably not witnessing it."

"After not seeing him for so long, I didn’t expect him to reach the Nascent Soul Stage before me."

Su Yuqing, dressed in white, with profound eyes, couldn’t help but sigh.

Back when they both emerged from Qingyang Market, who would’ve thought they could reach this point.

At this moment, the mana aura he was emanating was already Golden Core Perfection, just one step away from the Nascent Soul Realm.
