Chapter 495 Various Reactions
Old Demon Qing Yang was just about to drift back to sleep when he suddenly opened his eyes.
His illusory Spirit Body floated to the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree, sized it up, and then asked the Devouring Heaven Rat beside him,
"This old one isn't dreaming, right?"
The Devouring Heaven Rat glanced at him, curled its lip, and sneered, "What's wrong? Could it be that even in your dreams, you can dream of This Great One?"
Old Demon Qing Yang heard this and seemed to realize something, instantly waking up completely!
He wasn't dreaming!
Old Demon Qing Yang stepped forward to carefully observe the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree, then widened his eyes on his own, asking with some disbelief,
"This, this… Little Friend Qin, you've cultivated the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree to the point of flowering so quickly?"
Qin Ming played it mysterious and said, "Qin has a Spirit Plant Divine Ability, which underwent some changes after advancing to Mid-Core Formation Stage, allowing it to accelerate the growth of Spirit Plants. Moreover, there's also the inheritance of the *Spirit Wood Transformation Classic* I obtained, which contains detailed records on the cultivation of this tree."
"Tsk tsk, no wonder!"
"If this Treasure Tree continues to grow like this, it might even be better than the one the Azure Origin Sect originally had. Perhaps after it matures, it might even reach Fifth Order."
"Little Friend Qin's Spirit Plant Attainment is indeed extraordinary, even this old one must say he's impressed!"
Old Demon Qing Yang clicked his tongue in amazement.
"This time, the flowers blooming on the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree are Spirit Law Wonder Flowers that can enhance Cultivation Methods. After the Spirit Fruit matures and is consumed, it can directly improve the cultivation effect of Cultivation Methods, perhaps pushing Little Friend Qin's *Azure Emperor Art* to the fifteenth level."
"If this tree grows to the Fifth Order level, it could even serve as a Sect's Tree of Inheritance."
"Who would have thought that Demon Qingzi back then, tried to plant flowers with intention but none bloomed, yet when it came to Little Friend Qin, it was an unintentional act that yielded shade, Hehehe!"
Qin Ming nodded, he had some understanding of the wonderful uses of the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree Spirit Fruit from the *Spirit Wood Transformation Classic*.
Afterwards.
He tended to the Spirit Fields again and walked out of the Small Spirit Realm.
Qin Ming was in a very good mood after breaking through to Mid-Core Formation Stage.
He also ordered Mo Lingwei to give all the Spirit Farmers below three days of leave to celebrate with the entire island.
In the following days.
Wei Wuya, Gu Qingzhao, and Nalan Xi all came to offer congratulations one after another.
Even Fang Han, the newly advanced Grandmaster of Pill Dao from Profound Stream Valley of Liang Kingdom, also brought congratulatory gifts to personally congratulate him.
Many years had passed in a flash, and this young man had not only grown into a Third Order Grandmaster of Pill Dao, but his Cultivation Level had also broken through to the Golden Core Stage, and he had become the Sect Leader of Profound Stream Valley.
"Junior respectfully congratulates Senior Qin on his great advancement in Cultivation Level, reaching Mid-Core Formation Stage. This is a small token of junior's esteem."
Fang Han had also grown into a mature and steady middle-aged man.
Qin Ming still remembered when Gongsun Yang first brought him to Moon Gazing Island, he was still a young boy, with an air of fearlessness.
He casually took the jade box, put on a faint smile and encouraged him, "Yes, it is commendable that you have achieved today's accomplishments."
"Junior must also thank Senior Qin for his teachings over the years, which allowed junior to achieve what I have today," Fang Han said humbly.
Qin Ming said, "Although you possess a Pill Dao Spirit Body, it is also inseparable from your own diligence and effort, otherwise you would not have reached this step. Continue to cultivate diligently in the future, and perhaps you can go even further."
"Yes, junior will definitely keep Senior Qin's teachings in mind," Fang Han cupped his fists and respectfully saluted.
He was quite optimistic about Fang Han, perhaps he could lead Liang Kingdom to its peak in the future.
…
At the same time.
The shocking news of Perfected Person Wang Yue of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World breaking through to Mid-Core Formation Stage, like a hurricane, quickly spread throughout the Cultivation World.
In the Main Hall of the Yin Demon Sect of the Great Li Dynasty, the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
Several figures were sitting in the hall, each with a vast aura, all of them Old Devils of the Nascent Soul Stage.
The two Supreme Elders of the Yin Demon Sect, Old Devil Tian Qi of Mid-Core Formation Stage, and Old Devil Xuan Yin of Early-Nascent Soul Stage, were both present.
In addition, there was also Superior Man Wan Gu, the stray dog of Divine Path Mountain. After losing the war, he had no choice but to bring a few of his direct lineage core members and seek refuge with the Yin Demon Sect.
Following them was Saintess Blue Ice of the Blood Refinement Demon Sect.
"The current war situation is not optimistic for us. That Perfected Person Wang Yue of the Southern Wilderness has now broken through to Mid-Core Formation Stage, which I fear will have a profound influence on the future," Old Devil Tian Qi said in a heavy tone.
Old Devil Tian Qi was a stern-faced old man with cloudy eyes and a restrained voice, appearing to be a very deep and scheming person.
"Who would have thought that this child could grow to such a terrifying level in silence? Now that the general trend of the Southern Wilderness has been established, even we can't do anything about him, alas!" Superior Man Wan Gu showed an extremely agitated look, heavily slamming his hand on the table in front of him.
Saintess Blue Ice opened her cold eyes and commented indifferently, "This Holy Daughter once had a brief encounter with Perfected Person Wang Yue in the East Sea."
"I can only say that this person is by no means easy to deal with. Back then, he was able to safely escape from the hands of Elder Demon Lord Seven Sorrows of this Sect with Early-Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation Level, which is not something ordinary people can do."
"Then what should we do now?"
"I didn't expect the Human and Demon races to attack so fiercely. It seems that what happened to Demon Saint Black Wind back then completely enraged those Monster Beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."
"On the contrary, it has facilitated the alliance between the Human and Demon races, making them as solid as a rock, backfiring on us."
"We must find a way to break the alliance between the two races."
…
Deep within the core of the Beast Roar Mountain Range, inside a Farmhouse Courtyard that resembled a Secluded Paradise.
A White-Robed Youth wearing white robes was reclining lazily on a wooden chair by the Pond, fishing, with a yellow gourd in his hand, constantly pouring Spirit Wine into his mouth.
"Mu Qingzi, since you've come, why hide?" The White-Robed Youth's handsome face had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, saying without looking sideways.
It was as if he was talking to the air.
But as soon as his voice fell.
A ripple spread out in the void beside the White-Robed Youth, revealing a gray-robed middle-aged figure, whose specific face could not be seen clearly, and who exuded a Late Golden Core Stage Cultivation Level aura.
"Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed, and Little White, you have already grown to such a level. It is truly beyond this seat's expectations."
The voice of the newcomer was somewhat with a sigh of emotion.
"Should I still call you Little White as before? Or Demon Venerable White Lin?" The gray-robed middle-aged man said meaningfully.
Demon Venerable White Lin poured Spirit Wine into his mouth casually and freely, without directly answering the other party's words. He shook the wine pot and said with some regret in his expression, "Alas! This Spirit Wine is still a bit lacking, far inferior to the Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Nectar brewed by that Perfected Person Wang Yue."
"Ever since that junior of the Fox Clan sent me a small pot of Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Nectar, and exchanged a Fourth Order High Grade Spirit Item from me, I have never been able to forget that taste."
Mu Qingzi frowned upon hearing this, "Are you talking about that Nascent Soul Cultivator who is currently in the limelight in the Southern Wilderness? This seat has heard that this person has cultivated to Mid-Core Formation Stage in just over three hundred years. Even in the former Azure Origin Sect, he would be considered a person of outstanding talent."
"But with your current Cultivation Realm, wouldn't it be over if you just snatched it? "
"As long as you speak, who would dare not obediently offer up the Spirit Wine?"
Demon Venerable White Lin scoffed and said, "I am not as crude as you. The dignified Sect Leader of the ancient Azure Origin Sect, when we meet, you just want to shout, fight, and snatch."
"What's wrong? After being self-sealed under the Five Elements Mountain for ten thousand years, have the after-effects of your Demon Art not healed yet?"
"Even this venerable one did not expect that you, Mu Qingzi, would actually succeed in Corpse Dismemberment Re-cultivation, and even cultivate back to the Late Golden Core Stage Realm."
"Judging from this Speed, I am afraid it is not far from re-cultivating to the Spirit Transformation Stage, right?"
Mu Qingzi was not angry when he heard this, but paused for a moment and then continued, "This seat still cannot appear outside for too long. This time, I have only come to discuss a cooperative transaction with you."
"Could it be that after Corpse Dismemberment Re-cultivation, you cannot leave the Soul Nourishing Coffin inside the Azure Origin Sect?" Demon Venerable White Lin obviously guessed Mu Qingzi's intention at once.
Mu Qingzi nodded slightly, and then went straight to the point, "As long as you help me find some Fifth Order Spirit Items that are helpful for restoring my Spirit Soul and physical body, this seat can share with you the hidden location of an Ascension Platform."
"Presumably, after you reached the Fifth Order Realm, the Spirit Qi in the Human Realm has declined. If you cannot successfully ascend to the Spirit Realm, you will no longer be able to support your continued breakthroughs, and you will be trapped here for a long time, right?"
When Demon Venerable White Lin heard this, a serious look finally appeared on his contented face. He turned his head to look at the other party, and then asked faintly,
"Mu Qingzi, are you serious about what you said?"
"This seat has come here at great pains, how could I say something frivolous to you," the gray-robed middle-aged man replied indifferently.
"In that case… then it's not impossible," Demon Venerable White Lin's eyes flickered, and he then agreed, "I didn't expect that after ten thousand years, Sect Leader Mu's methods are still extraordinary. Presumably, your Undying Demon Art should have been completed, and you have also regained your sanity and clarity."
"It's still a bit lacking. If it weren't for those Nascent Soul juniors accidentally unlocking the seal of the Seven Wonders Treasure Tree, I might not have been able to complete Corpse Dismemberment," Mu Qingzi explained.
Demon Venerable White Lin asked again, "Then the Mountain Gate of the ancient Azure Origin Sect is under the Five Elements Mountain Range. Didn't you leave some family fortune back then?"
"The Sect's Treasures were long ago divided up in that dispute, and even the Supreme Treasure Curved Jade Golden Light Mirror was lost. How could there be any inventory left?"
"The most precious thing was that Seven Wonders Treasure Tree, but once the seal was removed, it naturally burned to ashes."
"Alright, I won't say more, then this seat will wait for your good news."
As he spoke, the gray-robed phantom in the void disappeared like an illusion.
…
On Moon Gazing Island.
Qin Ming had been diligently opening up new Spirit Fields during this period, and then planting Spirit Plants on the hillside.
The Devouring Heaven Rat followed behind him, wielding the Shennong hoe, diligently clearing weeds.
From time to time, it would cast the Geng Metal Art to exterminate pests.
The Silver-Winged Frost Bees directed the Spirit Bee swarm to collect honey from the Spirit Plant Flower Clusters on the main peak, continuing to brew Bee King Spirit Jelly.
This scene was also seen by the Spirit Farmers and low-level Cultivators below.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Island Master is indeed a Fourth Order High Grade Spirit Plant Master. Even though his Cultivation Level has reached such a high Realm/State, he is still personally farming the land. He is truly a model for us!"
Li Lan, with his white hair and wrinkled face, also said with respect, "Nascent Soul True Lord is still like this, what reason do we have not to work hard?"
Since he followed Qin Ming to Moon Gazing Island, he had also become the chief steward of Spirit Plants, and had made outstanding contributions to the Spirit Island over the decades.
He had always regarded Qin Ming as a role model to learn from.
Of course, they did not know that Qin Ming was so hands-on in order to refresh entries.
Qin Ming was also enjoying such peaceful days, which were rare.
After Divine Path Mountain was eliminated, the Great Jin Cultivation World was equivalent to having a Malignant Tumor removed, completely eliminating this Major Hidden Danger.
What Superior Man Li Huo failed to accomplish back then was unexpectedly achieved by the joint efforts of the Human and Demon races.
Although Superior Man Wan Gu was not dead, judging from the current situation, Divine Path Mountain basically had no possibility of making a comeback.
The Situation of Great Jin had become clear, without the feeling of unease like having a thorn in one's back as before.
According to the news Qin Ming obtained from the Blood Abyss World, the armies of Cultivators from Star Palace and Ice God Palace, after achieving some war results, took the gains and retreated back to the Human Realm.
After all, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. Those Demon Sects of the Blood Abyss World were not so easy to conquer.
The Demonic Path of the Human Realm also tactically retreated, returning to recuperate and build strength, leaving only some Void Anomalies, waiting for the next Realm Descent.
"It has been almost a hundred years since the Demonic Path of the Blood Abyss World invaded. Who would have thought that this Realm Descent would last for so long."
Qin Ming put down the Spirit Seed in his hand, and looked into the distance.
