Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

"Alas! I can’t even remember the last time I enjoyed such exquisite wine and delicacies. Forget it, I won’t look anymore. It’s too frustrating!"

The Heaven-Devouring Rat held the skewer of meat in its hand, deliberately making loud chewing noises in front of him. "Mmm... Tier Four Treasure Meat is indeed incredibly fragrant and has countless indescribable benefits."

Qingyang the Old Demon: "..."

Meanwhile.

The fall and death of these three Nascent Soul True Monarchs have caused an uproar in the Cultivation Realm.

Especially the fall of Master Lihuo, the Supreme Elder of Lihuo Palace, and Elder Qian. For the top power of Great Jin, it can be said to be a catastrophic blow.

Without a Nascent Soul True Monarch to hold down the fort, internal and external troubles have risen one after another.

However, it is said that the Lifebound Primordial Spirit Lamp of the founding ancestor of Lihuo Palace is still intact, causing other powers in Great Jin to tread cautiously.

They dare not fully break ties.

But it is not difficult to foresee that if a new Nascent Soul True Monarch is not born, the status of Lihuo Palace will plummet.

The Guardian Dao Alliance is also in chaos, leaderless.

Fortunately, Wanbao True Monarch of the Ten Thousand Dao Business Alliance has stepped in to stabilize the situation.

The impact on the Blood Refining Demon Sect is also considerable.

Within the Great Li Yin Demon Sect.

On the high seat of the main hall sits the figure of Lan Bing Saintess. Over the years, she has already advanced to the realm of a Nascent Soul Demon Monarch.

Beside her is Profound Yin the Old Demon of the Yin Demon Sect, and two other Nascent Soul Demon Monarchs from the Blood Refining Demon Sect, both of whom descended from the Descent Realm.

"Why did the old ghost Blood Aversion fall alongside two Human Race Nascent Souls in the Beast Roar Mountain Range?"

"Could it be the Demon Saint Gushan took action? For them not to escape, they must have encountered an opponent beyond mid-stage Nascent Soul."

"It shouldn’t be. According to the intel from Blood Aversion Demon Monarch, the Demon Race intends to cooperate with the Human Race to jointly counter our sect." Lan Bing Saintess’s expression was extremely cold, with an even more superior demeanor than before.

"There must be some major change."

"Instruct the disciples to investigate this matter thoroughly and promptly."

The fall of a Nascent Soul Demon Monarch is no small blow to the Blood Refining Demon Sect.

This is the first time such an incident has occurred in the many years since the Descent Realm began, and it cannot be overlooked.

...

Half a month later.

Qin Ming had just completed a significant task. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he immediately used the True Demon Illusion to disguise himself as an ordinary traveling merchant and entered the Great Jin territory.

After arriving, he witnessed the chaos brought about by war.

A tense atmosphere was pervasive throughout.

Especially the Five Elements Mountain Range, which has become the center of conflict between the Demon Dao and the Guardian Dao Alliance.

The Spirit Ruins Market had long been blood-sacrificed by Great Black Heaven, and the Five Elements Mountain Market was no more, now a pile of ruins.

Qin Ming sighed, "In such large-scale turmoil and strife, even I cannot bring peace here once more..."

Subsequently, Qin Ming contacted Hua Tianxiong to come meet him.

With Hua Tianxiong’s major backer Elder Qian also gone, staying in this chaotic wasteland held little meaning anymore.

Outside Litian Immortal City, Central State of Great Jin.

Hua Tianxiong arrived on his Golden Imperial Carriage and, upon seeing Qin Ming, hurriedly paid his respects: "Hua Tianxiong greets the master!"

He appeared dispirited, clearly affected by the fall of Elder Qian.

After all, Elder Qian had sheltered him for many years, albeit primarily out of mutual benefit.

Qin Ming then took Hua Tianxiong into the Little Spirit Realm to exchange information on the latest developments.

"By the way, how is Su Yuqing doing?" Qin Ming asked casually.

Hua Tianxiong hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Reporting to the master, Sultan attempted to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm two years ago, but unfortunately... he failed."

"Ah? With Brother Su’s talent and potential, he surely prepared the Nascent Condensation Pill and the Ice Heart Jade Soul Pill, and was confident enough to attempt the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm. How could he have failed?" Qin Ming was slightly surprised by the news.

Hua Tianxiong sighed, "It is said the process of Nascent Soul Formation is incredibly difficult, not everyone has the master’s fortune. Fortunately, Sultan prepared in advance, only damaging his meridians, and did not drop in realm after the failed attempt."

"I visited him afterward, and Sultan said he plans to retreat for ten years before attempting another breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage. His life hangs on that."

"With the fall of Master Lihuo, some areas have also implicated the Su Family, and Sultan is under considerable pressure."

"As for matters in Great Jin, it seems Wanbao True Monarch has temporarily stepped in to lead the defense against the Demon Dao."

Qin Ming sighed deeply but knew Su Yuqing’s temperament, once he decided on something, he would not easily change.

"Hua Tianxiong."

"What are your orders, master?"

"I am giving you two options: one is to return to the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm to manage Wangyue Island with Mo Lingwei."

"Alternatively, you can run your business in the Star Moon Market and help me gather Spiritual Objects."

"The Southern Wilderness currently has no threat of Descent Realm Demon Dao invasion, so the cultivation environment is naturally safer and more stable than Great Jin."

"With my decree, you should thrive there without hindrance."

Hua Tianxiong’s previous gloom instantly vanished, replaced by an unmistakable look of excitement.

He was almost ready to eagerly accept immediately.

But Qin Ming signaled him to hold on and continued:

"The second option is to accompany me to travel to the East Sea Cultivation Realm, which might take anywhere from a few to several decades."

"During this time, there will be tasks where you’ll need to act on my behalf, handling certain public matters."

"However, the East Sea is new territory for me, unfamiliar waters. There may be unforeseen sea dangers, and I cannot guarantee your safety at all times."

"Consider your choice carefully."

Qin Ming finished speaking and quietly awaited Hua Tianxiong’s response.

Hua Tianxiong, upon hearing Qin Ming’s words, fell into a dilemma.

After half a cup of tea time.

Hua Tianxiong appeared resolute, bowed to Qin Ming, and said decisively: "I am willing to follow the master to the East Sea Cultivation Realm and offer my services."

He was at an age where if he didn’t seize this chance, he might lose the opportunity forever, and he could distinguish who the true strong backing is.

"Hmm, you may attend to your affairs."

"Also, arrange for Old Jia and Li Lan of the Mirror Snow Pavilion to be escorted back to the Southern Wilderness."

Qin Ming gazed towards the direction of Litian Immortal City.

Lihuo Palace is now preoccupied with internal crises.

Originally the foremost Immortal City of Great Jin, it is now plagued with rampant Tribulation Cultivators and on high alert, certainly not a place for business.

"Of course, the East Sea isn’t urgent. Amidst the current chaos, perhaps many rare resources will secretly emerge from Great Jin. Here is my list of needed Spiritual Objects, attempt to acquire some for me first."

"Particularly focusing on ’Cyan Sky Spirit Soil’ and other Spiritual Objects."

"Yes, I will attend to it now!"

Hua Tianxiong took the jade scroll from Qin Ming’s hand and went off to carry out his duties.
