Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

"The remnants of the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree? You can’t be serious??"

Qin Ming received this piece of charred spirit wood, slightly surprised.

He had personally witnessed the incredibly miraculous spirit plant.

Indeed, judging from its appearance now, this remnant does bear some resemblance to the coral-like branches of the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree.

Hua Tianxiong, seeing the crowd so shocked, was quite pleased and then explained: "It’s certainly true."

"What you don’t know is that the towering Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree completely withered after opening the secret realm of the Cyan Origin Sect for some unknown reason."

"According to Elder Qian, the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Righteous and Demonic Dao tried everything they could to revive this treasure tree."

"But ultimately, one day the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree spontaneously combusted, turning into a pile of charcoal, leaving only seven remnants."

"These remnants were immediately divided among the major Nascent Soul sects, and Lihuo Palace did get one piece. Elder Qian intended to store it in the sect’s treasury for preservation."

"I thought this item might be useful for Elder Qin, so I spent a fortune pulling some strings to get my hands on it, haha!"

"For this item, I almost emptied my savings."

Qin Ming, after hearing the origin of the treasure tree remnant, praised Hua Tianxiong: "You have been thoughtful, you did very well!"

Because he had just used the Yin Yang Profound Mirror divine technique to examine the remnant and found that the core still possessed a trace of weak vitality.

Just because other Nascent Soul old monsters couldn’t revive it doesn’t mean he couldn’t...

"Alas! Even our sect’s treasure tree has withered, it’s truly a pity. It’s said that a fully matured Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree can even grow beyond the fourth-tier spirit plant level."

"This treasure tree was personally planted by a great power and existed in Cyan Origin Sect for ten thousand years, yet in the end, it has also exhausted and withered..."

"What a shame, what a lament, what a pity!"

Qingyang the Old Demon in the Blood Massacre sighed deeply, expressing his sorrow.

After resting quietly on the Star Sea Divine Vine for a period, his spirit body and divine soul were nourished and restored considerably.

"Beyond tier four grading, wouldn’t that mean it reached tier five divine tree level?" Qin Ming couldn’t help but ask.

Qingyang the Old Demon replied: "Hehehe! The ancient Cyan Origin Sect was renowned for the cultivation and planting of spirit plants during its zenith. Naturally, it wasn’t lacking in tier five spirit plants, and more than just one."

"However, since those last two old masters ascended, no one has been able to cultivate them anymore."

"This marked the beginning of Cyan Origin Sect’s decline and eventual downfall."

"In the Human Realm, tier five divine woods still exist, such as the Penglai Immortal Tree in the East Sea Cultivation Realm, which belongs to the tier five level, passed down from the ancient cultivation realm. This tree existed even before my demise and is the sect’s guardian treasure of the Penglai Sect."

"It’s said even the Venerable Divinity Transformation cannot shake it in the slightest."

After hearing Qingyang the Old Demon’s account, Qin Ming was secretly amazed, not expecting such secret insights.

’The Penglai Immortal Tree, huh? Luckily, I got a Penglai Immortal Order from True Monarch Dragon Wood, and when the time comes, I must go and witness the elegance of the tier five immortal tree...’

’As for this treasure tree remnant, I can try to revive it with the entry, albeit to an unknown extent.’

Qin Ming, after receiving this congratulatory gift meticulously prepared by Hua Tianxiong, glanced at him again and asked:

"Didn’t I give you the Divine Wood Pill before I left?"

"Why is your cultivation still stuck at the mid-stage Golden Core after so many years?"

Hua Tianxiong’s old face turned red upon hearing this, "Well... maybe because I cultivated too smoothly under Elder Qian’s protection early on, leading to stronger resistance later, so..."

"Hmm, I thought so too. You’re not short on cultivation resources, you have an Earth Spirit Body, and your talent isn’t lacking. Most likely, your mana isn’t pure enough, and you need to diligently cultivate and refine your mana." Qin Ming advised coolly.

Hua Tianxiong hurriedly replied: "Elder Qin’s lessons are wise! I will keep it in mind."

Soon after, Qin Ming took out a small bottle of Demon Flame Wine and handed it to him:

"This wine is called Demon Flame Wine, and upon first drinking it, a Golden Core cultivator can immediately break through the bottleneck. But whether you use it to break through to the late stage or reach Golden Core Perfection, it’s up to you, make good use of it."

Hua Tianxiong, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but tremble with excitement while thanking: "Thank you, Elder Qin, for your generous gift!"

He had already thought it through; once back, he would put everything about the trading company aside, ignore everything, and go into seclusion.

No matter what, he must break through to the late-stage Golden Core. Then, upon consuming the Demon Flame Spirit Wine... wouldn’t the Great Dao be in sight?

In this chaotic era, it’s an additional means for self-protection.

Simultaneously, he felt immense gratitude toward Qin Ming.

He felt his life was worth it, unexpectedly having good fortune, first saving Elder Qian’s life, and from there embarking on a cultivating journey to the sky.

Later, through a fortuitous mistake, he encountered Qin Ming, initially fearing an escape from doom under his mastership.

But he personally witnessed the other person’s growth into an unattainable, towering tree...

He who had originally been hopelessly stuck at the early-stage Golden Core also surprisingly achieved a breakthrough to the mid-stage under the other’s casual assistance.

Now, he sees the hope of breaking through to the late-stage Golden Core, and even perfection!

Though his life and death are completely controlled by Qin Ming, he didn’t feel any loss no matter how he thought about it.

After all, Hua Tianxiong from now on would be under the protection of a Nascent Soul elder...

Hua Tianxiong felt at this moment, his painstaking effort of obtaining the treasure tree remnant from Elder Qian was definitely the right move.

After the three exchanged pleasantries.

Qin Ming switched the topic to the matter of the Descent Realm. Although he had learned much from Master Lihuo and Demon Saint Gushan,

the specific situation within the cultivation realm, these two had the most firsthand experience being in the Great Jin.

Upon hearing this, Hua Tianxiong, who was initially incredibly excited, became deflated, "Alas! Now the Three Kingdoms of the Central Continent are engulfed in war, with demonic ways rampaging, the Great Jin is also devastated, with evil dao tribulation cultivators appearing one after another, taking advantage of the chaos."

"My Thousand Mechanism Trading Company almost went under."

"Fortunately, Elder Qin’s success in nascent condensation allowed for some peace."

"That’s right, we actually envy the Southern Wilderness now, as it hasn’t been invaded by the Demonic Dao and there are no wars or chaos." Su Yuqing also said.

"Under Brother Qin’s influence, the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm has formed the Four Nations Alliance for unified management, not only quelling the mutual conflicts and battles among different nations over the years but also showing great signs of flourishing development."

"On our way to the Southern Wilderness, we hardly saw any Tribulation Cultivators, and the environment is extremely peaceful and stable."

"The large-scale Star Moon Market on Spirit Nest Islands truly opened Su’s eyes, leaving him amazed."

"It doesn’t fall short compared to Litian Immortal City of the Lihuo Palace."

Su Yuqing was deeply impressed by the astonishing changes in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm during his journey.

The fact that the Southern Wilderness has reached such a state is entirely thanks to Qin Ming, the sole Nascent Soul True Monarch.

"Oh? I didn’t expect the situation in the Great Jin to have deteriorated to such an extent?"

"Perhaps when Master Lihuo and the others return and join forces with the Demon Race, they might be able to turn things around." Qin Ming said calmly.

"What?!"

"Joining forces with the Demon Race?!"

Hua Tianxiong and Su Yuqing were quite shocked, as they were unaware of such secrets of the high levels of the Cultivation Realm.

Having learned this information from Qin Ming, they were lost in thought.

Over the past six months, there should have been secret moves between the high levels of the Human and Demon Races.

"Brother Su, since the situation in the Great Jin is so dire, perhaps your Su family should migrate to the Southern Wilderness. At that time, Qin can speak to the people over at Lihuo Palace." Qin Ming said casually.

Su Yuqing was touched upon hearing this but after some thought, he said, "Thank you for your kind offer, Brother Qin, but our Su family has been rooted in Longting Lake for hundreds of years, a migration of the entire clan... is probably impossible."

"For now, I can still manage the situation myself."

Seeing his response, Qin Ming did not insist further.

It seems that Su Yuqing has his own resolution.

Suddenly.

Hua Tianxiong secretly communicated with Qin Ming through a black talisman:

"Master, what about me?"

"I’m willing to stay! Hehe! I see you have such a large Spirit Vein Island, without proper people to manage it, right?"

"Even those Tier Three Branches haven’t been developed and are lying fallow."

"No, you continue to lurk in the Great Jin, I might have great use for you." Qin Ming directly refused, "As for managing the island, let’s discuss it at another time."

His words instantly dampened Hua Tianxiong’s enthusiasm.

"Yes, Master!"

If it weren’t for Qin Ming leaving Hua Tianxiong behind back then, he wouldn’t have obtained this piece of the Treasure Tree remains now.

Following this.

Hua Tianxiong and Su Yuqing stayed on Wangyue Island for a few more days before heading to Star Moon Market for a tour.

Then they bid farewell to Qin Ming and left.

...

Inside the Little Spirit Realm.

Several months ago, Qin Ming separated a part of the Spirit Marrow Taisui and implanted it into the Spirit Vein core of the Little Spirit Realm.

He then used over four thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones to elevate the Spirit Vein level of the Little Spirit Realm to Tier Four Low-Grade.

This wave of operations nearly consumed all the High-Grade Spirit Stones he received at the Nascent Soul Opening Ceremony.

Subsequently, he took out the black-charred remains of the Treasure Tree.

Qin Ming found a nice scenic spot and placed it properly, then with a thought, he consumed a [Regenerative Spirit Seed] entry.

At the next moment, a power descended from the void, causing a purple spore to emerge from the black withered wood, completely enveloping it.

The spore emitted a rich vitality, beginning the revival of the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree.

However, as time passed, until the entry was fully consumed, the remains of the Treasure Tree just slightly regained some vitality.

There was still a long way to go for a true revival.

Qin Ming immediately intensified his efforts and used three more [Regenerative Spirit Seed] entries consecutively.

A few days later.

After continuously using five entries for revival and under the blessing of the Four Seasons Divine Light, the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree finally fully revived, starting to sprout tender green buds.

"This Treasure Tree, as expected of the Cyan Origin Sect’s Guardian Spirit Plant, took a full five [Regenerative Spirit Seed] entries to barely revive it." Qin Ming sighed with emotion as he looked at the spot of green before him.

Soon after.

Qin Ming once again consumed a [Leaf of Space-Time] entry, intending to ripen it, but after consuming five entries in succession.

The Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree slowly grew to only two inches tall... resembling a small coral, emitting waves of seven-colored halos.

"It took five hundred years to grow this much... it seems that to ripen this Treasure Tree to its mature stage in the future, it will require quite a few entries!"

"I guess it also has something to do with the Spirit Vein environment and certain other special conditions..."

Qin Ming was not in a hurry and planned to wait until he refreshed the [Leaf of Space-Time] entries in the future, to try to cultivate the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree to its legendary fully mature stage.

As for now, his [Leaf of Space-Time] entries had been completely consumed while hastily ripening spirit plants in preparation for refining the Nascent Condensation Pill.
