Chapter 429 Nascent Soul Inauguration Ceremony
"So it is Fellow Daoist Dragonwood from the East Sea Cultivation World, please come in!"
Qin Ming gestured to invite them in, his attitude extremely warm and welcoming.
Revered Person Separating Fire beside him instantly twitched his face.
This kid's attitude towards him just now was not like this at all.
"Then this old woman will accept your kind invitation." Dragon Wood True Lord slightly nodded.
When Qin Ming returned to the Southern Wilderness back then, he had also learned a lot about the East Sea Cultivation World from Moon Spirit Yan and Ship Boss Shi Jin of the Black Sail Ship.
The East Sea used to be a large Cultivation World that had produced Transformation Divinity Seniors consecutively for a long time.
Penglai Sect had also once given birth to Transformation Divinity Stage Seniors, and it is said that there is an inheritance of the Penglai Immortal Tree to ensure the continuation of its legacy, and it is only a matter of time before another Transformation Divinity emerges.
A Great Sect like Penglai Sect definitely has no lack of Great Cultivators in the Mid-to-Late Nascent Soul Realm.
And the silver-haired old woman in front of them, 'Dragon Wood True Lord', was precisely from the 'Penglai Immortal Sect'.
Fire Palace is still quite a bit lower in terms of pattern and level compared to Penglai Immortal Sect.
After all, Fire Palace has never given birth to a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator, and the Sect Founding Ancestor only reached the Late Nascent Soul, and now his whereabouts are even unknown.
Who is stronger and who is weaker.
Qin Ming could observe a thing or two from Revered Person Separating Fire's attitude towards Dragon Wood True Lord.
The three of them flew down to the island.
When passing by the Spirit Field on the Main Peak, Dragon Wood True Lord couldn't help but stop to observe.
"Dragon Blood Divine Tree, Five Elements Primordial Spirit Peach, Three Crimson Soul-Returning Grass, Jade Emperor Spirit Rice…"
She spoke out these rare Spirit Plants that were hard to see in the Outer World, as if enumerating treasures.
"This old woman had previously heard various rumors about Fellow Daoist Qin and still maintained a skeptical attitude, but now seeing it with my own eyes, Fellow Daoist Qin's Spirit Plant Skill has truly reached perfection, and may even surpass it."
Dragon Wood True Lord's gaze was deep, and when she saw the dazzling array of Spirit Plants on the Main Peak, she revealed an expression of extreme admiration.
Qin Ming was also slightly surprised: "It seems Fellow Daoist Dragonwood, could it be that you are also someone of this Dao?"
At this moment.
Revered Person Separating Fire, upon hearing this, explained, "Fellow Daoist Qin is right, Fellow Daoist Dragonwood has deeply inherited the Spirit Plant Cultivation of Penglai Immortal Sect, and is a genuine Fourth Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Plant Master."
The implication of his words was also to remind Qin Ming that the status and position of a Fourth Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Plant Master were definitely superior to ordinary Nascent Souls.
Even in the Nascent Soul circle, they are extremely special existences, not to mention that the other party's background and connections are also extremely profound.
Revered Person Separating Fire had also accidentally met Dragon Wood True Lord at an Exchange Meeting between Fellow Daoists, but the relationship between the two was not very close.
His reminder was also hoping that Qin Ming would be cautious in his words and actions, so as to prevent the young man from being impetuous and saying something he shouldn't say.
"Oh, is that so?"
"So Fellow Daoist Dragonwood is actually a Fourth Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Plant Master, please forgive my disrespect!"
Although Qin Ming already had a large pile of Fourth-Order Spirit Plants in his Small Spirit Realm, he still maintained a humble and polite posture.
"Qin's meager skills are being praised too much by Fellow Daoist Dragonwood."
Dragon Wood True Lord shook her head, "Hehe! Fellow Daoist Qin is the one hiding his true ability, although the Spirit Plants planted here are mainly Tier 3, to cultivate them to such a Quality, extremely profound skills are still needed."
She was also a discerning person, different from others, and saw the key at a glance.
Even some Spirit Plants that were extinct in the Cultivation World could be seen here, which was enough to explain the problem.
Dragon Wood True Lord was deeply versed in the Way of Spirit Plants and could be said to be particularly fond of it.
While she was out handling matters in the Black Sea, she heard that the newly advanced Nascent Soul True Monarch in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World was from a Spirit Farmer background and was also a Spirit Plant Master, who had walked step by step to where he is today, and couldn't help but feel curious.
If it were just an ordinary Core Formation cultivator forming Nascent Soul, she wouldn't have bothered to come here.
Dragon Wood True Lord came here this time also with her own plans, if Moon Gazing True Lord was just a mere reputation, then she would only prepare to say hello and leave.
But if the other party really had unique insights into the Path of Spirit Plants, then she also harbored the intention of making connections. From the first moment Dragon Wood True Lord saw Qin Ming, although he looked ordinary on the surface, her sixth sense was extremely strong.
Although Qin Ming had just broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage, she had a feeling of being unable to see through him.
Coming to the Spirit Island and seeing it with her own eyes further confirmed her guess.
After entering the Great Hall.
Qin Ming served Spirit Tea to the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
"Fellow Daoist Dragonwood, this is the Snow Soul Spirit Tea, a specialty of this island, and it is also personally planted and cultivated by Qin, please taste how it is?"
Dragon Wood True Lord smiled and gently took a sip, "Mm, it is indeed a rare and good Tea."
Immediately, she put down the teacup, took out a delicate Pill bottle, and handed it to Qin Ming, saying, "This old woman wishes Fellow Daoist Qin Great Accomplishment of Nascent Soul, Eternal Immortal Path, a small gift, nothing to show respect."
"Then Qin will thank Fellow Daoist Dragonwood." Qin Ming was also not polite and directly took the Pill from the other party's hand.
He just slightly opened it to take a look, and a strange Pill Fragrance immediately spread throughout the entire Great Hall.
Only to see inside, there were three light purple Spirit Pills lying there, emitting a strong Pill Halo.
Revered Person Separating Fire, upon seeing this Pill, raised an eyebrow and was immediately moved, "Fellow Daoist Dragonwood is truly generous, it's actually a Clear Void Pill!"
"Clear Void Pill?" Qin Ming asked doubtfully.
His "Source Dao Pill Scripture" and "Blood Refinement Elixir Scripture" also had no relevant Records.
It should be some kind of unique Spirit Pill of the East Sea Cultivation World, specifically for the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Precisely, this Pill is called 'Clear Void Pill', and it is refined using the Fourth Rank Sea Beast Demon Core unique to the East Sea Cultivation World, and it has great help in enhancing and consolidating Early Nascent Soul Stage Magical Power."
"This Pill is quite rare, and only Penglai Immortal Sect in the East Sea has it."
"Fellow Daoist Qin is truly blessed."
Revered Person Separating Fire also introduced with considerable envy.
"Unexpectedly, it is such a precious Spirit Pill, then Qin will thank Fellow Daoist Dragonwood for your kindness." Qin Ming also thanked again upon hearing this.
Revered Person Separating Fire watched from the side, although there was no major change on the surface, his heart was already filled with mixed feelings.
It was not difficult for him to see that Dragon Wood True Lord already had the Intent to Befriend the newly advanced Nascent Soul of the Southern Wilderness.
After some pleasantries, Qin Ming began to talk with the two of them.
"Fellow Daoist Qin looks extremely young, is it true that you Form Nascent Soul at just over three hundred years old?" Dragon Wood True Lord asked, looking at Qin Ming's youthful appearance.
Qin Ming smiled calmly and replied, "Indeed, the Cultivation Method that Qin cultivates focuses on nourishing life, and is not good at battles, and I also took an Appearance Preserving Pill when I was young."
Upon hearing 'Appearance Preserving Pill', both Nascent Soul True Monarchs simultaneously revealed expressions of realization.
Because at the Nascent Soul step, most Cultivators are stuck in the Early Nascent Soul Stage and find it difficult to advance further.
The younger the age when forming Nascent Soul, the more Lifespan they have to Impact the later Realms, representing greater future Potential.
Dragon Wood True Lord's Intent to Befriend became even stronger upon hearing that Qin Ming had successfully formed Nascent Soul at only over three hundred years old.
Revered Person Separating Fire was also secretly surprised, the other party was a Rogue Cultivator from the wild, without Sect Resources to support him, being able to reach this step, without much thought, he knew that he must have Great Fortune and Great Fated Chance.
However, anyone who could reach this stage would have some Secrets, and thinking of this, he was relieved.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, with your Rogue Cultivator identity, Cultivating to the Nascent Soul Stage in just three hundred years, is enough to show that you are an Innate Talent."
"Please forgive This Seat for asking presumptuously, does Fellow Daoist Qin have any plans for the future? With your Spirit Herb Art and Cultivation Potential, being confined to the Southern Wilderness is truly too much of a waste of talent."
"If Fellow Daoist Qin does not mind, and is willing to join the Great Jin Protectorate Alliance, this Old Man can make the decision, and can guarantee that the City Patron Benefits will not be worse than this Old Man's."
Revered Person Separating Fire seemed to see Dragon Wood True Lord's intention in her words, and actually took the lead to invite him.
Dragon Wood True Lord's Expression moved slightly.
Obviously, Revered Person Separating Fire's shameless behavior caused a hint of displeasure in her.
"I am afraid Qin will have to decline Daoist Friend Ding's good intentions, Qin is still used to being alone and does not intend to join any Force." Qin Ming politely refused the other party. The Central Continent Three Kingdoms are engulfed in war, although he now has the Strength to cope and protect himself, he naturally wants to stay away from this place and does not want to get involved in disputes.
Dragon Wood True Lord actually also wanted to extend an invitation, after all, being able to pull in a Rogue Cultivator Nascent Soul with a clean background to join the Sect.
It would not only further increase the overall Strength of the Sect, but also be a great achievement.
"Since that's the case, Fellow Daoist Qin has just successfully formed Nascent Soul, presumably you have many questions about this Realm? Although the two of us are only trapped in the Early Nascent Soul Stage for a long time and cannot advance further, we are also willing to exchange notes with Fellow Daoist Qin." Dragon Wood True Lord said with a light smile.
Qin Ming's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he immediately became energetic, "Oh? Then Qin will naturally be overjoyed."
Since Qin Ming advanced to Nascent Soul, he had never properly interacted with Nascent Soul Fellow Cultivators, and was also a blank Paper regarding matters in this circle, and now taking advantage of the fact that the Nascent Soul Inauguration Ceremony had not yet begun, it was a good opportunity.
Revered Person Separating Fire, as the Supreme Elder of Fire Palace of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, is a Chess Player controlling the Situation of the Central Continent Cultivation World.
Naturally, he has a lot of the latest Front Lines Information here.
Just from Qin Ming chatting with him casually for a few sentences just now, he learned about the Sudden Change in the Realm Descent Passage of the Vast Blood Realm, such important Information.
Such Secret intelligence, placed in an organization specializing in Sale of intelligence, could be sold for a considerable Spirit Stone.
In addition, Dragon Wood True Lord is a Senior Member of 'Penglai Sect' of the East Sea Cultivation World.
Qin Ming's conversation with her was truly eye-opening, and he also learned about some Secrets of a foreign Cultivation World.
When he goes to Travel in the East Sea in the future, he can also grasp some important Information in advance and avoid some detours.
Perhaps he can also make Connections with her.
After all, what Qin Ming is now focusing on is Reputation, making Good Karma.
After some exchanges, Qin Ming asked Wu Jiang to select two excellent Cave Residences on the Main Peak for the two True Monarchs to rest.
…
Time flew by in a flash.
Three days later, the Nascent Soul Inauguration Ceremony officially began.
Qin Ming walked out of the Cave Residence, his vast Divine Sense covering the Spirit Dwelling Islands.
Outside the Spirit Island, countless carriages, Spirit Light Flying Birds, Magical Artifact Flying Shuttles, came from all directions, all gathering at Moon Gazing Lake.
The Nascent Soul Inauguration Ceremony is the grandest gathering in the Cultivation World, and being able to witness the Nascent Soul posture is something that many Cultivators dream of in this lifetime.
Major Immortal City Merchant Alliances, Sect leaders, Rogue Cultivator Great Experts, representatives from all walks of life came one after another, numbering in the tens of thousands.
Foundation Establishment Grand Experts and Golden Core Ancestors, who are rarely seen on weekdays, were also everywhere.
But those who could be invited to the island were all Cultivators above the middle level of the Cultivation World.
Most Low-Rank Cultivators were celebrating the festivities together on other Islands of the Spirit Dwelling Islands.
Even the seats for the banquet were divided into areas according to the order of rank and seniority in the Cultivation World, the Outer Perimeter of Spirit Island was the Foundation Establishment Cultivator seats, the Mountainside was the Core Formation Stage, and the Main Peak Fourth-Order Spirit Vein was the Nascent Soul Stage seats.
Of course, Qin Ming's three Spirit Pets also exclusively booked a table.
"Unexpectedly, there is such a Paradise with abundant Spirit Qi in the world…"
The Cultivators who boarded the island were all Shocked by the scene before them.
Immediately afterwards, the sounds of congratulations resounded one after another.
Forces from all sides appeared one by one.
In addition to the Forces of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World, there were also some Great Sects from neighboring Cultivation Worlds.
"Did I see it right? The python-robe Senior standing next to Moon Gazing True Lord, isn't that Separating Fire True Lord of Fire Palace?"
"Huh? And who is that Nascent Soul Senior holding the Dragonwood Staff next to him? Why have I never heard of him?"
At this moment.
A Golden Core True Person with some Experience pondered for a moment, and then said in shock, "Dragonwood Staff… Hiss! Could it be Senior Dragon Wood True Lord from the East Sea Cultivation World!"
"Moon Gazing True Lord's reputation is really big enough, that he can even make Connections and know such figures."
"May I ask this Fellow Daoist, what kind of Force is this Penglai Sect? Is it stronger than Fire Palace?"
"Mm, a Great Sect from the East Sea that once produced a Transformation Divinity Stage Senior, do you think it's strong or not?"
"Hiss~"
Just then, violent Fluctuations echoed in the Space nearby.
Immediately following a flash of rainbow light.
Two Escaping Lights with vast Aura instantly arrived and landed on the Main Peak.
"Myriad Paths Merchant Alliance True Lord Ten Thousand Treasures has come to congratulate!"
"Yellow Sand Faction True Lord Secluded Sand from the Western Secluded Cultivation World has come to congratulate!"
As two more Nascent Soul Experts appeared on stage, the Scene's atmosphere suddenly fell into suffocation.
The Cultivators below, even if they were beaten to death, could not imagine that they would be able to see so many top Great Expert Cultivators with their own eyes in their lifetime.
Qin Ming also stepped forward and warmly greeted the two Nascent Soul Cultivators whom he had never met before.
True Lord Ten Thousand Treasures of Myriad Paths Merchant Alliance was a middle-aged man in the shape of a merchant, wearing a jade robe embroidered with money patterns, and even wearing a full ten luxurious Storage Rings on his hands, at a glance, one could tell that he was incredibly wealthy.
This person is the real backer of Myriad Paths Merchant Alliance, and also one of the Big Shots behind the Dao Protector Alliance.
True Lord Ten Thousand Treasures always had a warm smile on his face, giving people a approachable and gentle feeling.
And True Lord Secluded Sand from the Western Secluded was burly, wearing a simple and unadorned yellow robe.
"Qin has met the two Fellow Daoists who have come from afar, please take your seats."
"Congratulations Fellow Daoist Qin on Great Accomplishment of Nascent Soul, seeing is believing."
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Qin."
After some pleasantries and presenting Congratulatory Gifts, the two who had just arrived also took their seats.
They also saw Dragon Wood True Lord from the East Sea Cultivation World, and couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and hurriedly greeted her.
After True Lord Ten Thousand Treasures was seated, he looked around the table, and then asked Revered Person Separating Fire:
"Where is that old fellow Ancestor Cold Crow? Wasn't he clamoring to come?"
"This Old Man arrived one step ahead, he seems to also have been delayed by something, and will arrive later." Revered Person Separating Fire frowned slightly and pondered, then said.
"What else could that old brat be busy with?" True Lord Secluded Sand also seemed to be familiar with several people.
At the same time.
In the Sky Above Wei Kingdom, bordering the Beast Cry Mountain Range.
A shocking rainbow Escaping Light, passing through the void, appeared thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye, it was an Azure Luan Precious Carriage.
Inside sat three people, a Palace-Attired Beauty, holding a Little Silver Fox in her arms, a Tower-like burly man, and a Green-Robed Youth.
"Daoist Friend Cold Crow, thank you for personally delivering the Invitation Card and guiding the way this time." Moon Spirit Yan smiled faintly, and said to the Green-Robed Youth.
And the other Tower-like burly man was Demon Sage Gu Shan of the Mountainous Giant Ape Royal Clan, Mid-Fourth Order Cultivation Realm, equivalent to Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivator of the Human Clan.
Sitting in the same carriage with two Demon Sages like this.
Ancestor Cold Crow was already sitting on pins and needles, wishing he could jump out of the carriage immediately. "Uh, hehe! Fellow Daoist Lingyan, it's just something on the way."
'That Damnable Shopkeeper Lu, actually tricked me!'
'Knowing him is really the bloodiest bad luck of eight lifetimes.'
