Chapter 388 Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Spirit Saliva, Great Zhou Luo Family
Beast Roar Mountain Range, just after Qin Ming left.
The place where the battle with the Demonic Cultivators had just erupted, the air began to fluctuate, rippling like water waves, and then began to tremble violently.
Just at this moment.
Two streaks of shocking Escaping Light suddenly flew from afar and stopped in the Sky Above nearby in an instant.
The Escaping Light dissipated, revealing two figures with no Magical Power Aura, just like mortals.
However, to be able to stand in the Void Space without emitting a single Spirit Pressure, they were clearly no ordinary people.
One of them, a burly man like an iron tower, was Demon Sage Gu Shan of the Mountain Giant Ape Clan, whom Qin Ming had met once during the Grand Ceremony in the Fox Clan Holy Land.
Beside him, standing in the Void Space was a Demon Cultivator man wearing black feather robes, his black hair tied in a crown, and except for having a horn-like pointed nose, his other features were almost no different from the Human Race.
Clearly, he was also a Demon Saint Level figure who had completely undergone Transformation.
"Brother Gu Shan, the destruction from the battle here seems to have been caused by Great Demons above the Late Stage of Rank Three."
"Why have I never heard that there are such Demon Cultivators in this area of the Beast Roar Mountain Range?"
Demon Sage Gu Shan did not directly answer his question, but narrowed his eyes and used his Demon Sense to carefully perceive for a moment.
Then he couldn't help but furrow his brow.
He said with some doubt, "Strange, why do I sense a faint aura belonging to Within the Clan, sometimes present and sometimes not…"
"Ah? Brother Gu Shan, you must be mistaken, right?" the black-feathered Demon Cultivator said in surprise, "Don't joke around, don't tell me a new Demon Saint Seed is about to be born Within the Clan again?"
Demon Sage Gu Shan searched without result and gave up perceiving: "No, I am merely suspicious."
"Great Black Heaven, what do you think about this matter?"
The person beside him was Great Dark Heaven Demon Saint, a Transformation Demon Saint of Early Fourth Order from the Wind Splitting Eagle Clan.
Great Dark Heaven Demon Saint heard this, his pair of small emerald green eyes narrowed slightly, and he said indifferently, "These little demons and monsters fighting below are all insignificant."
"What I care about most is the Secret Realm of the ancient Azure Origin Sect.
I heard that there may be High-Rank Fated Chance inside, and even Treasures to Breakthrough the Fourth Order Bottleneck.
Isn't Brother Gu Shan tempted?"
"How is your consideration of my previous proposal going?"
Demon Sage Gu Shan heard this and remained unmoved.
"There is no need to mention this matter again.
I advise you, it's best not to meddle in the affairs of the Human Race, otherwise you will easily get burned."
Afterwards, he ignored the other party's reaction, his figure blurred for a moment, and then he disappeared from the spot.
He came quickly and left quickly.
Great Dark Heaven Demon Saint's emerald green eyes flickered a few times, and without lingering any longer, his figure faded and he left this place.
"Humph! How truly boring."
"Since none of you agree to join forces, then I will go myself."
…
On the other side.
After flying for several days, Qin Ming returned to the Five Elements Mountain Spirit Field.
To be safe, he also took a detour.
After confirming there was no tail, he then returned to the Spirit Field Residence.
After Qin Ming returned to the Spirit Field, he first inspected it.
Dozens of Spirit Farmers were engaged in daily Farming, and Li Lan was also tending to the Jade Emperor Spirit Rice.
Everything was normal.
Old Jia had gone to manage the business Within the Mirror Snow Pavilion.
Now the business of Mirror Snow Pavilion is getting better and better, and Old Jia is a bit too busy.
Gu Qingzhao had also transferred a lot of manpower from the Headquarters of the Southern Wilderness.
The first thing Qin Ming did upon returning was to take out Shennong's Hoe, clear the weeds from the ten mu of Heavenly Net Grass he had planted, and then use the Five Elements Spirit Rain Art to irrigate it.
The Spirit Field was lush and green, and in general, it was growing quite well.
After tending to the Spirit Field, he then entered the Small Spirit Realm and began to look through the Storage Bags of the two True Lineage Disciple of the Blood Forging Demon Gate.
But the next scene.
Even the well-informed Qin Ming was stunned in place.
"Good heavens! This is too rich, isn't it?"
"You don't know until you look, and you're shocked when you do."
"These two Demonic Cultivators, how many Forces in Great Zhou must they have plundered?"
As soon as these words came out, the Heaven Devouring Rat, who was wiping his Black Steel Fork nearby, twitched his ears, put away the Steel Fork, and immediately came over.
He glanced at the Storage Bag and couldn't help but exclaim.
"My goodness, Master, we've struck it rich! I didn't expect these two to be such Easy Prey! Hehehehe!"
In the two Storage Bags, there was a dazzling array of High-Rank Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, and all kinds of Spirit Items were overwhelming, piled up like small mountains.
In addition to the Demonic Path Inheritance of the two, there were also many Spirit Materials plundered.
High-Grade Spirit Stones alone, when added together, numbered over a thousand, Mid-Grade Spirit Stones numbered tens of thousands, and Low Grade Spirit Stones were even more numerous, simply uncountable.
Demonic Cultivator Meng's two Natal Demon Treasures, the 'Blood Bat Demon Tower' and the 'Blood Spirit Drill', were both Upper Third Rank Demonic Artifacts.
As well as Demon Cultivator Chou's Natal Demonic Weapon, which was a Tier 3 Peak Grade Demon Bone Banner.
And several other Low-Grade Third-Order and Mid-Grade Magic Treasures.
Qin Ming didn't really think much of this type of Demonic Path Method and Demonic Artifacts.
What interested him were the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures plundered from Great Zhou, some of which he could use.
Just as he was rummaging through and checking, an item in Demon Cultivator Chou's Storage Bag attracted the attention of the Heaven Devouring Rat beside him.
It had a natural treasure-seeking constitution, and its sense of smell for Treasures was extremely keen.
The Heaven Devouring Rat sniffed hard, and its eyes suddenly lit up.
"Eh, what is this?"
The Heaven Devouring Rat pointed to the ground, at an Azure Jade Bottle that was pressed at the very bottom.
Qin Ming heard this and stopped the movements in his hands.
Then he took this Azure Jade Bottle into his hand, and saw that the bottle's appearance was simple and elegant, with several Ancient Spirit Markings engraved on the body of the bottle.
Just holding it in his hand, he immediately felt its extraordinary nature.
If it weren't for its overly simple and unadorned appearance, and if the Heaven Devouring Rat hadn't reminded him, Qin Ming would have missed it.
He then intended to pull out the Bottle Stopper, but found that a very tight Seal Restriction had also been applied to the Azure Jade Bottle.
If he were to forcefully break it, Qin Ming could also do it, but he was afraid of damaging the contents inside.
Therefore.
He turned his head and handed the Azure Jade Bottle in his hand to the Heaven Devouring Rat.
"You decipher the Restriction on it."
The Heaven Devouring Rat was immediately overjoyed, took the Azure Jade Bottle from Qin Ming's hand, and spat out Black Profound Light from its mouth to decipher it.
Only half an Incense Stick later.
A layer of dark light flickered on the Azure Jade Bottle, and then it dissipated into the air like a bubble.
"Master, it's done."
"Hehehe!"
The Heaven Devouring Rat handed the Jade Bottle back to Qin Ming with a grin.
Qin Ming smiled slightly and nodded.
Having the Heaven Devouring Rat's ability saved him a lot of effort in decipher all kinds of Restriction Formations.
He then pulled open the Azure Jade Bottle and looked inside.
Immediately, a burst of verdant radiance erupted, and pure Spirit Aura came from inside the bottle, making one's spirit greatly invigorated!
And at the mouth of the bottle, a touch of five-colored Rosy Light emerged, and the Phenomenon of a Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure was instantly revealed.
Inside, one could see that it was a full bottle of Verdant Spirit Liquid, shimmering with a crystal clear radiance, and constantly changing colors, which was very magical.
"This thing…"
"The Dao Essence of a Fourth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure!"
Suddenly Qin Ming's eyes lit up!
"It's actually Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Spirit Saliva!"
"And such a full bottle."
"Hahahaha!"
Qin Ming was surprised and delighted.
He hadn't expected that the Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Spirit Saliva, one of the five Main Material for refining the Nascent Soul Pill, would be obtained so easily!
It really pays to rob and kill!
Otherwise, he didn't know how long it would take to collect this item.
"Nascent Soul Fruit Tree, Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Spirit Saliva, Transformation Demon Grass, Taiyi Bodhi, these four Main Materials have already been collected."
"Now only the last ingredient, 'Five Elements Spirit Ginseng', is missing."
"I didn't expect the progress to be so fast."
Qin Ming was also overjoyed, which meant he was getting closer and closer to the Nascent Soul Realm.
In a great mood, he reached out and patted the Heaven Devouring Rat's head and asked, "What Treasure do you want? Pick anything you like."
"Thank you for the Master's reward, Master is generous! Ehehehe!"
The Heaven Devouring Rat was overjoyed to hear this.
It was rare for Qin Ming to be so generous, actually letting him pick Spoils at will.
Half an Incense Stick later.
The Heaven Devouring Rat, with its arms full of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, walked happily towards the Mysterious Water Crocodile and Silver-Winged Frost Bee, constantly bragging.
Qin Ming returned to his usual routine of Cultivation, Farming, and Pill Refining.
However, during his Cultivation these past few days, he had an indescribable feeling in the dark, and his mind was uneasy.
"Could it be that I missed something when I annihilated the Blood Forging Demon Gate Demonic Cultivators that day?"
But he carefully recalled it several times, confirmed that he had done it cleanly, and then stopped thinking about it and shook his head.
…
Several months later.
The Five Elements Mountain Market, which was originally in a state of panic, had returned to its former bustling prosperity since the Demonic Cultivators were thunderously cleared and swept away by the Defenders of the Dao Alliance.
Cultivators from all over Great Jin Dynasty gathered here again and began to Trade.
Old Jia of the Mirror Snow Pavilion also organized a group of people and opened a Branch Store of the Trading Company in the Five Elements Mountain Market.
The current Mirror Snow Pavilion is different from what it used to be, and is now considered one of the famous Trading Companies in Great Jin Dynasty.
It has already opened more than a dozen Branch Stores in the surrounding Markets of all sizes, and as its reputation grows, its turnover is increasing linearly every year.
One day.
Qin Ming finished his daily Cultivation practice and was leisurely sitting by the Spirit Field, tasting Tea.
Next to him was a table of Spirit Melons and Spirit Fruit, and a pot of Snow Soul Spirit Tea was brewing.
Like a recluse far from the hustle and bustle, he leisurely enjoyed the pastoral scenery before him.
Just at this moment.
Hua Tianxiong contacted Qin Ming through a Black Talisman.
"Master, there is an Important Matter of utmost importance that I need to report to you in person."
"Oh? Where are you?"
"I have been in the Five Elements Mountain Market all this time."
"Okay, I'll come over in two days."
Qin Ming slowly put down the teacup in his hand, a slight surprise in his expression.
"I didn't expect that Hua Tianxiong, this guy, seems to have gotten some amazing Information again…"
Two days later.
Qin Ming arrived as scheduled and came to the Five Elements Mountain Market again.
Compared to before, now there are Defenders of the Dao Alliance Cultivators patrolling and guarding around the Five Elements Mountain Market, strengthening the security.
The Safety level is directly raised by a notch compared to before.
At the Entrance of the Market, the Escaping Light of various Carriage Spirit Beasts dazzled the eyes, and below, there was also a long line of Cultivators waiting to verify their Status to enter.
After Qin Ming landed, the guards responsible for guarding quickly made way for him to pass.
"Yo! It's Shopkeeper Lu of the Mirror Snow Pavilion!"
"Please come in!"
Qin Ming was very familiar with Han Yuan and others from the Myriad Paths Merchant Alliance, and over time, these Cultivators below the Five Elements Mountain Market naturally recognized him as well.
Then, Qin Ming followed the address given by Hua Tianxiong, followed the Main Street to the East District of the Market, and after turning several times through the Alleys, arrived at the Courtyard Gate of a Small Courtyard.
He immediately sent a Message Talisman to Hua Tianxiong.
A moment later.
The Courtyard Gate opened, Hua Tianxiong, with his big belly sticking out, said with a flattering expression, "Master, you have arrived."
"Yes, just call me Shopkeeper Lu when we are outside," Qin Ming said lightly.
"Hehe! Okay, Shopkeeper Lu."
Now that the influence of the Mirror Snow Pavilion has greatly increased, as the Shopkeeper of a Trading Company, it is perfectly normal for him to have business dealings with the Thousand Machines Trading Company.
Only after Qin Ming followed Hua Tianxiong into the Courtyard did he realize that there was more to this place than met the eye.
The entire Courtyard was set up with a High-Rank Seclusion Barrier, which could even block the Divine Sense of a Golden Core True Person.
There was also an Upper Third Rank Formation guarding the Courtyard.
In terms of Safety, it could be said to be the ultimate.
It seemed that Hua Tianxiong had invested a lot of money and effort.
"Speak, what do you need me for?" Qin Ming sat down on a rattan chair and asked.
Hua Tianxiong brewed a pot of fine Spirit Tea for Qin Ming, then sat down opposite him and explained the Origin.
"Hehehe! Master, a big business opportunity has come!"
"It's like this, a few days ago, several Abyss Crossing Dharma Ships under my Thousand Machines Trading Company withdrew from Great Zhou and returned to Great Jin Dynasty to avoid the War."
"In addition to our Trading Company's people, there were also many Cultivators fleeing from Great Zhou on this Magic Ship."
"Not a few of them are Young Masters from Great Zhou."
"Among them, there is one person who is Elder Luo Xi of the Great Zhou Luo Family."
"This person secretly contacted me, saying that this time he came to Great Jin Dynasty to seek Pills."
"His Treasure son, with Superior Spirit Root Talent, was seriously injured by Demonic Cultivators in the chaotic Demonic Path invasion and Battle, and his Foundation was damaged."
"This Old Guys doesn't know where he heard that my Connections with Grandmaster Su are extraordinary, so he entrusted me to plead with Pill Master Su."
"He wants to ask him to help refine a Miraculous Spirit Pill called 'Nine Suns Soul-Sustaining Pill'."
"After it's done, the Luo Family can pay a very considerable reward, and as for Conditions, they can be freely proposed."
"In addition, subsequent Trade cooperation can also be discussed."
"I thought that Master might have something you need, so I discussed it with you."
"Elder Luo Xi has also arranged to meet me here, and it is estimated that they will arrive within the next two days."
"Master, do you want to meet them? And then decide."
Hua Tianxiong finished speaking, rubbed his fat hands, and looked at Qin Ming with a smile.
Because he knew that Grandmaster Su of Dao of Alchemy like Su Yuqing was willing to pay attention to him entirely because of Qin Ming's Prestige.
"Great Zhou Luo Family?"
"Have you checked their background?"
Qin Ming had only recently killed two Blood Forging Demon Gate Demonic Sect Cultivators who had disguised themselves and smuggled over.
Therefore, when he heard that they were Cultivators from the Great Zhou Cultivation World, he subconsciously maintained a cautious attitude.
"I have already sent people to investigate, and there is no major problem with the other party's origin."
"It's just that I'm a little unsure, so I wanted to ask you to check." Hua Tianxiong said, pouring Tea for Qin Ming.
Qin Ming nodded upon hearing this, which was considered agreeing to the matter.
Hua Tianxiong was quite smart to consult him first before doing things.
"The Nine Suns Soul-Sustaining Pill is a Third Stage High-Grade Spirit Elixir, and only a Grandmaster of Pill Dao of Upper Third Rank level is likely to be able to refine it."
"And this Pill is specifically used to treat Soul injuries.
Could it be that the Young Master of the Luo family suffered damage to his Divine Soul?"
Qin Ming, as a Grandmaster of Pill Dao of Tier 3, and also carrying the "Source Dao Pill Scripture" taught by Su Yuqing, was naturally no stranger to this kind of Pills.
Therefore, he asked this question.
"This… I have seen Young Master Luo once, and I just saw that he was quite weak, and his Divine Soul was indeed somewhat injured, but I don't know the specifics." Hua Tianxiong smiled awkwardly.
Qin Ming pondered for a moment, then said, "Well, let's wait and see then."
Afterwards, Qin Ming and Hua Tianxiong talked about other things.
A day later.
Hua Tianxiong walked in from outside, with a smile on his face: "Master, Elder Luo Xi just sent me a Message Transmission."
"They have brought Young Master Luo Chen and have already arrived Within the Market, and it is estimated that they will be here in a while."
"Hmm." Qin Ming took a sip of Tea, with a calm and composed look, and nodded lightly.
After another half Incense Stick.
Hua Tianxiong received a Message Talisman and went out to open the Courtyard Gate himself, thinking that the people had arrived.
A group of people were welcomed into the Courtyard by Hua Tianxiong.
Leading the way was a Golden-Haired Elder, wearing a luxurious robe of gold silk on a gold background, with sharp eyes and a radiant spirit, and a Cultivation of Early Golden Core Stage.
It was likely that this person was Elder Luo Xi of the Great Zhou Luo Family.
Behind him was a sickly jade-robed young man, with a Cultivation in the Early Foundation Establishment Stage, and on his pale Paper-like face, one could faintly see that his appearance was extremely handsome and extraordinary.
"Elder Luo Xi!"
"Young Master Luo Chen!"
"Guild Master Hua, you are too kind."
Beside the sickly young man named Luo Chen, there were also two maids of considerable beauty following closely at all times, supporting him on the left and right.
After the group entered the Courtyard, they first greeted Hua Tianxiong with an extremely warm attitude.
But when Elder Luo Xi stepped into the hall and saw that there were other strangers inside.
The smile on his face instantly disappeared completely.
Elder Luo Xi turned his head with an ugly expression and asked Hua Tianxiong in a questioning tone, "Fellow Daoist Hua, what is going on?"
"Why are there outsiders here?"
"This old man repeatedly warned you, and you also promised this old man, that this matter must be carried out in absolute secrecy."
