Then congratulations to your sect on the birth of another powerful Golden Core elder!” Qin Ming smiled, accepted the gilded invitation from Han Lin, and returned his congratulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Lin held Qin Ming in high esteem and smiled with deep implication: “Actually, Qin Daoist, it is you whom we envy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? What do you mean?” Qin Ming asked, showing a hint of confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Lin explained: “Hehe! Qin Daoist is one of the few cultivators personally designated by Elder Wei for special invitation after his successful Golden Core breakthrough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Including Canghai True Person, the list of those personally invited by Elder Wei numbers no more than five—and you are among them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This alone shows how highly Elder Wei regards you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? Hehe, I never expected such honor for Qin Mou.” Qin Ming was also surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Core ceremony of Lei Yuanzong was not open to ordinary factions or cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Solitary cultivators could only look on from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only major factions and the pinnacle cultivators of Wei State’s cultivation world received invitations to witness this grand event.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Golden Core experts were already the ceiling of Wei State’s cultivation world—there were only three in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming not only had the privilege of being invited, but was personally invited by Wei Wuyan—this alone granted him the utmost prestige.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe! If I hadn’t been assigned to deliver invitations in Canghai Xiancheng, I’d never have had the chance to meet Qin Daoist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Han Mou has long heard of Qin Daoist’s name; today’s meeting fulfills a long-held wish for me, hahaha!” Han Lin flattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now that the invitation has reached your hands, I must proceed to the next destination. When you arrive at our sect, we shall sweep the mats and welcome you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In half a month, our sect’s magic ship will depart from Canghai Xiancheng to escort invited guests to our main hall. You may board it—or come on your own.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming nodded. “Then I won’t see you off. I shall certainly attend the ceremony as invited.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After bidding farewell to Qin Ming, Han Lin’s magic ship became a streak of light and vanished into the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who would have thought? Wei Wuyan is truly an extraordinary talent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Under such desperate circumstances, he managed to break through to Golden Core—his core formation quality must be exceptionally high.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing of Wei Wuyan’s breakthrough, Qin Ming could not help but show a trace of envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the monumental news of Wei Wuyan’s ascension to Golden Core True Person swept across Wei State’s cultivation world like a hurricane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its magnitude nearly overshadowed the ongoing beast tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sigh~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Attending Lei Yuanzong’s banquet means I must bring a gift.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wei Wuyan’s Golden Core ceremony demands a worthy offering—not something shabby or unworthy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What should I give?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming paced back and forth at the entrance of his cave dwelling, pondering what gift to prepare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming left the Xuan Shui Eel to guard his dwelling, then summoned his Silver-Winged Frost Bee, departed from Wangyue Island, and set off for Lei Yuanzong to attend the ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Riding the Silver-Winged Frost Bee at breakneck speed, Qin Ming arrived at Canghai Xiancheng within an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the suppression of the spiritual energy Archipelago, the surrounding beasts had calmed considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No large-scale beast tides had attacked the city since.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sending a message to Lü Liang, he soon emerged to activate the formation and let Qin Ming enter the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Daoist, you’ve also been invited to attend Lei Yuanzong’s Golden Core ceremony?” Lü Liang asked with a smile, clearly envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Participating in such a ceremony was a major milestone on any cultivator’s path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming nodded, and after a brief chat, they parted ways. He learned that major factions like Jingxue Pavilion and Canghai Xiancheng had also received invitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to join the group rather than stand out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a day later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming boarded Lei Yuanzong’s magic ship with Gu Qingzhao and Huangfu Qi; Jingxue Pavilion was represented by her and Huangfu Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, he saw Xu Jing and others from Dan Ding Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several respected cultivators from Canghai Xiancheng were also aboard, such as Grand Alchemist Sun Jinnian and Master Artificer Fang Yezi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, a white light streaked across Canghai Peak, and the spiritual pressure of a Golden Core True Person descended upon the magic ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was none other than Canghai True Person Nanlan Xi herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Yuanzong’s Elders respectfully escorted Nanlan Xi into the ship’s chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun dipped low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the timing was right, Lei Yuanzong’s magic ship activated, instantly becoming a streak of light and vanishing into the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The journey ahead was still long—even with Lei Yuanzong’s large magic ship, it would take several days to reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Qin Ming chatted with Gu Qingzhao and Huangfu Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, amid the others’ surprised glances, Canghai True Person summoned him alone for a private conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nanlan Xi was primarily concerned about her spiritual pet and inquired about the progress of Qin Ming’s cultivation of the Hua Ling Yao Fruit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming could not yet hand over the fruit—he needed to delay further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please, Elder, rest assured. After my careful cultivation, the Hua Ling Yao Fruit has begun to bear fruit and will mature in two years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Nanlan Xi’s usually solemn face broke into a rare smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I heard the high-quality Soul-Returning Pill from Elder Ao was crafted by you, Qin Xiao?” Nanlan Xi suddenly shifted topics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming silently considered: every whisper in Canghai Xiancheng escaped this woman’s notice—his visit to Lei Yuanzong’s Linglong Pavilion had surely been thoroughly investigated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swiftly weighed his words, then admitted honestly: “Respected Elder, yes. The Soul-Returning Pill was secretly commissioned by Elder Wei, who originally sought me out to refine it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fortunately, I succeeded—without delaying the matters of the Elders.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Xiao, you misunderstand. Let me be frank: without your high-quality Soul-Returning Pill, Elder Ao’s power would not have surged briefly to exterminate the demon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, in the Yiling Valley battle, the three of us could not have guaranteed the annihilation of the Demon Vine—it likely would have fled into the Beast Roar Mountains.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The consequences would have been dire.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In truth, you deserve credit for this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I never expected your alchemical skill had reached the peak of Second Rank—perhaps, next, Wei State’s cultivation world will see its first Third-Rank Alchemy Master?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nanlan Xi gazed at Qin Ming with deep implication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe, Elder, you flatter me. Slaying demons and purifying evil is our duty; assisting the Elders is my great honor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need to count this as credit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for becoming a Third-Rank Alchemist—it is still far beyond me. I have a long road ahead.” Qin Ming replied with humble precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nanlan Xi smiled slightly. “Qin Xiao, are you truly willing to forgo this credit? I originally intended to reward you with superior spirit stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Qin Ming’s spirit instantly sharpened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough! Since the Elder insists I deserve this credit, I leave it entirely to your discretion!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, I wish to purchase Soul-Returning Pills from you. Do you still have any left?” Nanlan Xi asked bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming did not conceal it and nodded quickly: “I was fortunate enough to refine four. After giving two to Lei Yuanzong, I still have two remaining.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then produced one ordinary Soul-Returning Pill and one high-quality Soul-Returning Pill, handing them both to Nanlan Xi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, indeed excellent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nanlan Xi then withdrew five superior spirit stones and completed the transaction with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1375,"2026-06-20T20:44:53.217Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","bd1a803794b1f8117151561d881c40c95b1ade7d3691cbbaa5b6b073b0a51057","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-238","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-236",755,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-cover.jpg"]
