Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

Qin Ming directly cast a spell to draw the Earth Spirit Spring onto the Spirit Field, forming a perfect cycle.

After dealing with these matters,

he fed Xiaoqing some Spiritual Food and then left the Little Spirit Realm.

As soon as Qin Ming came out,

he grabbed the Heaven-Devouring Rat, inspecting and probing it thoroughly.

Then he released his Divine Thought, scanning inside its body.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat felt itchy all over from Qin Ming’s actions but dared not resist, letting him do as he pleased, and asked with a dry laugh:

"Mas... Master, what are you doing?"

"I... I haven’t hidden anything. I’ve turned everything over to you."

"Didn’t Master Mao Yuan say you awakened the ancient bloodline of the ’Spirit Devouring Race’? I’m just checking what this is all about," Qin Ming replied after checking its pulse.

"But I’ve searched all records related to the Spirit Realm races and found not a single word about the Spirit Devouring Race."

"Could it be the entire Spirit Devouring Race only has you left? Unexpectedly, you are a rare species."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat was disheartened upon hearing the first part but was suddenly invigorated, raising its head proudly upon hearing the latter part, lightly coughing as it said:

"Ahem! Yes, I will be the one and only Ancient True Spirit in the future."

Qin Ming patted its head: "Praise you a bit, and you’re already feeling arrogant."

"Hehe! By the way, what does Master plan to do with that Tier Six Demon Pill from the Heaven-Devouring Beast?" The Heaven-Devouring Rat rubbed its little hands, eyes gleaming with excitement.

Qin Ming nodded at its round belly and said, "Aren’t you afraid of indigestion? This is a Tier Six Demon Pill; your current cultivation realm is far from capable of handling its immense demonic power. You might end up exploding instead of advancing."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat blinked its eyes, speaking very resolutely: "No worries, Master. I want to challenge my limits..."

Qin Ming: "..."

"No way, don’t even think about it. I plan to use this Demon Pill to brew Spirit Wine. This way, the medicinal power will be easier to absorb while maximizing its value and effectiveness."

Hearing this, the Heaven-Devouring Rat’s eyes lit up. It preferred the taste of Spirit Wine over eating Demon Pill raw, so it nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking rice.

"That’s perfect. Spirit Wine’s aroma is still better."

Subsequently,

it was instantly full of motivation, grabbed the Divine Hoe, and went to help the Little Silver Fox and Tian Ling’er tend to the Spirit Field.

...

Half a day later,

the dramatic changes at Lingyuan Cave were noticed by all surrounding forces.

Qin Ming was casting secret techniques at the cave mansion entrance, injecting mana into the few Tier Six Spirit Beans planted there.

Then the dwarf elder-like Baili Hui came rushing in a state of panic to report:

"Master, things have gone terribly wrong!!"

"What has you in such a rush? Sit down and talk slowly." Despite knowing what he was about to say, Qin Ming still maintained a calm demeanor and spoke.

Baili Hui hurriedly said without sitting down, "Just now, there was confirmed news that a Void Refining level battle erupted at Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers’ Lingyuan Cave."

"The Wang Family happened to occupy Lingyuan Cave Spirit Land and was caught in the Void Refining battle, coincidentally with the Wang Family Ancestor inside, they... they were annihilated!"

"Oh, I see." Qin Ming casually replied.

Baili Hui was stunned at the response, ’Oh’? What does that mean?

Could it be... Qin Ming shows no shock at the explosive intelligence of the Void Refining battle and Wang Family’s annihilation.

He seemed calm and collected, as if these weren’t crucial to him.

Could this be the composure and unperturbed nature of powerful beings?

"No need to panic, if the sky falls, there will naturally be someone tall to hold it up. Celestial Star City will send people to handle it."

"Let’s just do what we must." Qin Ming said calmly.

"Yes, Master." Baili Hui left the main peak with a face full of doubt.

Meanwhile, at Little Turtle Peak Spiritual Land, within Xu Clan Territory,

Clan Leader Xu Xuan, upon hearing that Lingyuan Cave was affected by Void Refining Great Power’s battle, destroying the whole Spirit Mountain leaving not even a trace...

Felt deeply grateful for his past decisions.

If not for his courageous sacrifice and offering of great treasures, and decisively leading the entire clan to Little Turtle Peak, they would’ve been the annihilated ones.

"Clan Leader is indeed wise and mighty!!"

Even the Xu Clan members below felt immensely grateful, singing praises for Xu Xuan’s foresight.

Days later.

Nearby Wutong Mountain’s Li Changqing also came specially to visit Qin Ming upon hearing the news.

Clearly, this old fellow was also frightened by the news of Wang Family’s demise and sought Qin Ming to understand the situation.

Li Changqing had connections in Celestial Star City, and Qin Ming learned from him that even though Elder Lin and others went personally to investigate the site, they still couldn’t find who caused such a huge commotion.

After some cordial exchange, the other person also took his leave.

Agreeing to accompany Qin Ming when Celestial Star City’s Alien Race Delegation arrives, as a way of having mutual support.

Time slowly passed.

The event of the Void Refining battle at Lingyuan Cave gradually spread within surrounding territories.

Some even exaggerated the story,

claiming it had developed into a mysterious Great Power battling in the Outer Realm Starry Sky, accidentally causing Lingyuan Cave to become entirely void...

On this day,

the Heaven-Devouring Rat, full of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, was sitting on a large rock atop the main peak, inhaling and exhaling demon qi towards the Cloud Sea below for cultivation.

Suddenly,

its ears twitched slightly, bringing it out of the cultivation state, quickly retrieving the Black Steel Fork, adopting a defensive posture as it shouted towards Qin Ming’s cave mansion:
