Outer Perimeter of Moon Gazing Island.
Everyone watched Zhao Wuji flee in a sorry state, utterly dumbfounded.
Just now, everyone had only seen him enter the outer perimeter of the mist, and then suddenly begin to gesticulate wildly and shout madly, his behavior like a lunatic.
The noble image of Young Master Zhao of the past had vanished without a trace, replaced by an unmasked ugliness.
They then looked again towards the pink mist, deep dread and fear rising in their eyes.
"What exactly is this?"
"Could it be that Moon Gazing Island has already been swallowed by this mist?"
Zhao Wuji also revealed a look of lingering fear, "What a bizarre Illusionary Realm mist, it can actually produce such dangerous illusions."
"If it weren't for the life-preserving talisman given by the Grandmaster, I'm afraid I would have been planted here."
"This Qin fellow, as expected, is not as simple as he seems."
Zhao Wuji had personally experienced the power of the Mist Illusion Realm, and knew that it was absolutely impossible to break through it. He tidied his appearance, and then, with a gloomy face, led everyone away.
On Moon Gazing Island.
Qin Ming had also long since discovered what was happening outside.
He flew into Mid-Air, with a wave of his hand, two Blood Beads shot out from the Mist Illusion Realm, accurately landing in his hand.
Then Qin Ming scanned the two Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator's corpses with his Divine Sense, and the other party's two Storage Bags also entered his pocket.
"Consider yourself lucky, Young Master Zhao." Qin Ming stood in place, watching the direction Zhao Wuji and his group fled in disarray, pondering to himself.
Immediately, he returned to the Island and threw the two Blood Beads to his Natal Spirit Plant, Longevity Vine.
Black Vine danced, absorbing the Blood Beads cleanly, and grew out many more Branches.
Longevity Vine stretched its Vines, joyfully emitting waves of Aura of Time, constantly flowing into Qin Ming's body.
…
After this matter.
Within the Spirit Dwelling Islands Range, a strange tale gradually spread.
That was, Moon Gazing Island was shrouded in a pink mist, and the power of its Mist Illusion was so great that even Core Formation Grandmaster had to retreat from it.
"Alas! What a pity about Master Qin! A generation's hero!"
"Our Spirit Dwelling Islands, with great difficulty produced a Spirit Plant Grandmaster who could plant Spirit Rest Rice, and now he's gone just like that."
"Not necessarily, maybe everything is fine On the island?"
"This kind of strange mist, comparable to the mysterious gray mist of the Northern Border Great Marsh, even Core Formation Grandmaster cannot survive, let alone Island Lord Qin?"
"."
More and more rumors spread, and even split into several versions.
Like the sudden appearance of the strange mist, it added a mysterious Aura to Moon Gazing Lake.
Moon Gazing Island was also classified as one of the Spirit Dwelling Islands' Forbidden Grounds.
If any Cultivator rashly broke in, it would surely be No Return.
This news also spread to Mirror Snow Pavilion in Azure Sea Immortal City.
Gu Qingzhao and Shopkeeper Liao were also shocked.
"What?!"
"Fellow Daoist Qin's Moon Gazing Island has been submerged by strange mist?"
"This, this... Pavilion Lord, what should we do?"
Shopkeeper Liao was also full of worry. Mirror Snow Pavilion's last large-scale Auction had been extremely successful, and had been continuously influenced by it. Now, the turnover was rising in a straight line.
The adults at headquarters were full of praise for them.
This was all thanks to the Foundation Establishment Pill and many rare Spirit Plants refined by Fellow Daoist Qin.
If Qin Ming had an accident, it would still have a considerable impact on them.
In addition to this, there were also personal emotional factors involved.
Just then.
Outside the room door, the shop assistant's report came: "Reporting to Pavilion Lord, Shopkeeper, there is a Cultivator surnamed Wu requesting to see you, saying he is here to sell Spirit Rice."
Hearing this, Gu Qingzhao's originally furrowed brows instantly relaxed, and she hurriedly instructed, "Quickly invite him in."
After a moment.
Wu Jiang walked into the Private Room with a smile on his face, cupping his hands and greeting the two of them.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, what exactly is going on On Moon Gazing Island?" Shopkeeper Liao asked impatiently.
Gu Qingzhao also looked at him, her heart also full of doubts.
However, at this time, seeing Wu Jiang, who lived On Moon Gazing Island, appear here safe and sound.
It was not difficult for her to guess that nothing major had happened On the island.
"Hehe! Two Fellow Daoists need not worry, Moon Gazing Island is now safe Without Worry."
"The Spirit Dwelling Islands are now in the midst of war, and Fellow Daoist Qin, in order to protect Moon Gazing Island from the impact of the war, as well as the encroachment of some Powers."
"Only then did he have no choice but to set up a Mist Illusion Realm to increase Defense measures. As for everything On the island, it is still as usual." "Fellow Daoist Qin also specifically asked me to inform the two of you, and by the way, sell some Spirit Rice, as well as purchase some Resources."
After Wu Jiang finished explaining, Gu Qingzhao and Shopkeeper Liao's expressions became even more shocked, "This mist that can block Core Formation Grandmaster, was created by Fellow Daoist Qin?"
Wu Jiang nodded in affirmation.
To be honest, when Fellow Daoist Qin set up the mist, he had also spent more than a month in fear and trepidation.
Immediately afterwards, he told the two of Mirror Snow Pavilion everything about the situation.
"Welcome, welcome, Fellow Daoist Wu has come to sell Spirit Rice, This Sect couldn't be happier."
"Look, we were so preoccupied with asking about the Spirit Island's affairs that we haven't even served Fellow Daoist Wu Tea yet, we have been neglectful."
After listening to Wu Jiang's account, the worries of Gu Qingzhao and the other vanished, and they instantly felt relieved.
Shopkeeper Liao's face regained its professional smile, and he began to invite Wu Jiang to take a seat, and then brewed Spirit Tea.
…
After returning to Moon Gazing Island.
Wu Jiang told Qin Ming all kinds of rumors from the outside world.
"Hehe, it's just as well to have some peace and quiet, let them think what they will." Qin Ming couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
From then on, Moon Gazing Island truly became a secluded place.
Next.
Qin Ming began his monotonous Cultivation routine. In addition to daily Cultivation, he also studied the Tier 3 Spirit Plant Master Heritage, as well as the Miao family's "Thousand Machines Puppet Art".
Because after he advanced to Second-Rank Upper-Grade Spirit Plant Master, he would have to find a way to advance to Tier 3 Spirit Plant Master.
Practicing Puppetry also places extremely high demands on a Cultivator's Divine Soul. The Miao family's Advanced Puppet Technique was also incomparably exquisite.
Among them, there was also the 'Divided Spirit, Manifested Thought' method involved in controlling Puppets, which for Qin Ming, was simply Gilding the Lily, like a tiger with wings.
With his current Divine Sense strength comparable to Late Foundation Establishment Stage, he was exactly lacking such a method of wonderfully using Divine Sense.
In just half a month of research, he had used Spirit Plants to refine several Straw Puppets, possessing Mid Qi Condensation Stage Strength.
Those Straw Puppets were currently in the Spirit Field outside, helping him dig and loosen the soil.
Time slowly passed.
Three months later.
Qin Ming's three mu of Top-Grade Spirit Rest Rice all matured.
He took his Spirit Sickle and came to the Spirit Water Field, like a farmer, smiling and watching the crops he had painstakingly planted, the joy of harvest surged into his heart.
This time, the eighty Rice Blossom Spirit Fish in the Spirit Water Field were even more plump than last time. Each one was stout, and three tiger stripes had even been born on their backs. The smallest weighed seven or eight Jin, and the larger ones even weighed twenty Jin.
Qin Ming casually peeled open a grain of Top-Grade Spirit Rest Rice, and a dazzling Spirit Halo instantly entered his eyes. A grain of Spirit Rice as transparent as glass appeared in his hand.
An astonishing Spirit Energy Ripple spread out from the Top-Grade Spirit Rest Rice.
Qin Ming felt the rich Spirit Energy Ripple in the Spirit Rice, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then he rolled up his sleeves and began to harvest the Spirit Rice. The Spirit Fish in the Field also jumped and leaped about.
After busying himself for an afternoon, Qin Ming harvested three Dan of Top-Grade Spirit Rest Rice, enough for him to eat for a very long time.
In addition to this, he also harvested two blue Attribute Leaf:
[Mana Crystal] X5 [Time-Space Leaf] X5 That night, Qin Ming caught a ten Jin Rice Blossom Spirit Fish, and also cooked a pot of Top-Grade Spirit Rest Rice.
Within the Cave Residence, the Spirit Qi of the spiritual food permeated, lingering with a captivating aroma.
These two things, if placed in the Cultivation World outside, would cause an unimaginable sensation.
Qin Ming looked at the Spirit Rice and Spirit Fish in front of him, his appetite was greatly aroused, and he began to devour them ravenously.
Streams of majestic Spirit Qi continuously poured into his body.
After eating, he immediately walked to his Natal Spirit Plant Longevity Vine, and began to cultivate "Ancient Wood Longevity Skill".
Feeling that the time was right.
Qin Ming also used up all five Mana Crystals.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The cyan liquid Magic Power in his body became more and more abundant, following his Circulatory Meridians, like a trickle, merging into his Dantian Qi Sea.
In an instant, his Early Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivation began to soar.
It was not until he reached the Early Stage peak that it slowly stopped.
The storage capacity of his liquid Magic Power now exceeded that of ordinary Mid-Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators, more than twice that of Cultivators of the same rank.
Qin Ming stopped his Cultivation, and slowly opened his eyes, a flash of cyan light in his eyes disappeared in a flash.
Longevity Vine was still continuously injecting Aura of Time and Flora Qi into him.
The Silver Rune in his body was also gradually outlining a small part.
Meaning that Qin Ming's Ancient Wood Longevity Body Cultivation had begun to make progress.
Qin Ming felt the incomparably thick cyan liquid Magic Power in his body, and revealed a satisfied smile.
"If I continue to develop according to this trend, and continue to live reclusively On the island and farm for a few more years, Late Foundation Establishment Stage is not far away."
