Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive figure clenched its fist and slammed it into the third-rank array—just one punch shattered the already fragile formation with cracks like shattered glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heavy-Eyed Demon Ape!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did this beast come here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Worse!

It’s Nie family’s pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder, Nie Sheng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With a pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder present, can he stand against that Demon Ape?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t this monster severely wound two pseudo-Golden Core elders last time? What do you think?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only a Canghai True Person can defeat the Demon Ape.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But distant water can’t quench immediate thirst.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then we’re done. Just wait to die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“….”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response to this earth-shattering event, the Nie family mobilized fully, standing ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ancestral Elder, what do we do?” Nie Aoshan, a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the peak, stepped forward respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nie Sheng frowned deeply and spoke slowly: “Something’s wrong—I sense another extremely dangerous aura on the island.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even I have no confidence facing it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Find your chance and flee immediately! Hurry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll hold them off as long as I can!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing even his own Ancestral Elder say this, Nie Aoshan’s face turned ashen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mocking voice rang out from midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you running to~?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you even escape? Hahaha!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming hid in the shadows, following the voice—and saw Zhao Wuji in a black robe, beside him Mo Lingwei, though she had disguised her appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s Zhao Wuji!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s still alive?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did he cause the Qianye Spirit Island incident?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s colluding with demonic beasts—his ambitions are vast!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a late-stage Foundation Establishment elder of the Nie family, seeing Zhao Wuji, flew into a rage and charged at him: “Zhao Wuji! You dare return? Die now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop!” Nie Sheng, the Nie family’s pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder, cried out to halt him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air beside Zhao Wuji twisted, and an ancient elder’s figure emerged—it was Zhao Wuyang, the Zhao family’s ancestral elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nie family’s late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, seeing this eerie sight, froze in terror; when he recognized the figure as the Zhao family’s pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder, he tried desperately to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could cast a spell—punch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sudden, searing pain erupted in his chest—he looked down to see a pale, withered hand, drenched in blood, piercing through his back and emerging from his chest, clutching a still-beating heart, crimson blood spurting everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His vision gradually darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhao Wuyang” grinned like a ghost, squeezing his hand—within a single breath, the Nie family’s late-stage Foundation Establishment elder was reduced to a desiccated corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sss! Those below gasped in shock at the sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder—so terrifying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could the Zhao family’s Ancestral Elder be so unnatural? Has he cultivated demonic arts?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Run! He’s still alive too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s scalp prickled—he could sense with his powerful spiritual sense that “Zhao Wuyang” was no longer human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately chose a direction, waiting for the array to break so he could slip away in the chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his clansman killed, the Nie family Ancestral Elder roared in fury, “How dare you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, he formed a powerful fire technique, hurling it like a tidal wave toward “Zhao Wuyang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom! Watching the sky fill with flames surging like a tsunami, “Zhao Wuyang” sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened his mouth impossibly wide, and a crimson tendril shot out, piercing straight through the wall of fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Punch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the Nie family members regained their senses, they saw their pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder, Nie Sheng, impaled through the neck by a crimson tendril, hanging grotesquely in midair, blood gushing from his mouth, his eyes wide with terror, unable to speak a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhao Wuyang” sucked hard through the tendril—within moments, the mighty pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder became a desiccated corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having done this, Zhao Wuyang’s complexion instantly flushed red; he licked his lips with a crimson tongue, savoring it: “What a nostalgic flavor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly killing a pseudo-Golden Core Ancestral Elder—like crushing an ant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just the Nie family, but every cultivator from other spirit islands and factions now realized the Zhao family’s Ancestral Elder was not right—they scattered in panic, fleeing for their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Monster!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of demon is that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Zhao family’s Ancestral Elder must be possessed by a demonic spirit!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Run! It’s too terrifying!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when they ran toward the island’s edge did they realize Qianye Spirit Island was surrounded by an endless horde of demonic beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wuji in midair moved—he locked eyes on the cultivators below, then shot down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Huo, long time no see—don’t run!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a green light appeared in his hand—a flying blade magic treasure radiating astonishing spiritual resonance, striking toward the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Qianqiu’s face darkened; he pulled out a black defensive magic treasure, a dark shield, barely blocking the strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, over twenty remaining members of the Zhao family burst forth from all directions, clad in black robes, surrounding Huo Qianqiu and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Huo, old man comes to assist you.” An elder in dark robes hurried over from nearby—it was Yan Xiaotian, a Foundation Establishment cultivator from Giant Serpent Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wuji’s twisted face curled into a sinister grin. “Another fool come to die? Perfect—I’ll send you all off together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, several Foundation Establishment cultivators began fighting in a chaotic melee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a stick of incense burned out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On another side, Qin Ming suppressed his aura, blending into stillness like a withered log, hidden in the shadows, ready to surge forward at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had also swallowed a Hundred Illusion Pill, transforming himself into the appearance of a bearded giant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Zhao Wuji recognized him—if they met, trouble was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming was not afraid of Zhao Wuji himself, but he feared the strange “Zhao Wuyang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM! CRACK! Suddenly, the ground shook violently again—the Twin-Pupiled Demon Ape landed another punch, shattering the third-rank formation outright. Countless runes dissolved like bubbles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless beasts flooded into Qianye Spirit Island, slaughtering human cultivators they encountered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his chance, Qin Ming acted without hesitation—he summoned Silverwing Frost Bees, chose a direction with fewer beasts, and charged out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he was about to escape Qianye Spirit Island, he noticed below him several black-robed cultivators chasing a group of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader among the black-robed cultivators—coincidentally—was Zhao Wuji; the group being hunted was none other than Long Yi and Li Mu from Mirror Snow Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wuji was drenched in blood, his face wild with madness, holding aloft the severed head of a cultivator—it was Yan Xiaotian of Giant Serpent Island! The Mirror Snow Pavilion members were already grievously wounded; Long Yi and the others were pale as death, clearly at their last breath. Zhao Wuji would pick them off one by one—it was only a matter of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s mind flashed through several thoughts: “With disaster upon us, no time for hesitation—I must flee first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately ordered the Silverwing Frost Bees to accelerate and break free from the island’s boundaries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive green wind wall rose ahead, instantly blocking Qin Ming’s path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So there’s still one survivor hiding here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wuji’s voice drifted calmly through the air, then he launched a crimson fire ring toward Qin Ming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s gaze turned icy. If this is how it must be, then he had no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this moment of crisis, he had to strike with all his strength—this one move would decide victory or defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“True Qi Takes Form!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM! Qin Ming’s entire body erupted with his blood and true qi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding air twisted and rippled outward in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a blood-red giant ape, over ten zhang tall, materialized behind Qin Ming—nearly matching the size of the Twin-Pupiled Demon Ape outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-red ape clenched its five fingers into a fist and struck across dozens of zhang, hurtling forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>THUD! In the stunned gazes of all present, Zhao Wuji’s entire upper body exploded into a mist of blood, leaving only his two legs standing where he had been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the blood mist, a jade ring fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A Storage Numinous Ring!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s expression brightened—he reached out and summoned the ring into his hand, then instantly swept his spiritual sense backward and sensed a figure approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swiftly tucked away the ring, mounted the Silverwing Frost Bees, and shot off as a silver streak of light, vanishing into the horizon in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1853,"2026-06-20T20:44:51.995Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","78a2fb060ce27d2851a987c5e2a2dede85bed2bf8a350eec5d97d668d0149ded","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-191","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-189",755,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-cover.jpg"]
