After all, the immortal city had never before seen a beast king breach a third-rank high-grade defensive array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That devouring rat king’s abilities were truly peculiar—it could suppress talismans and arrays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the array were repaired, the next beast surge would likely overwhelm the city’s defenses again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really? That’s wonderful!” Nanlan Xi’s eyes brightened with a fleeting smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If her third-rank spiritual turtle recovered, it would relieve much of her burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alas!

Such is the peril of war! Thank heaven I dislike conflict and never joined any faction—I’m never forced into such dangerous missions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming sighed again, poured a cup of Yulin wine, and offered it to his old friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lü Wanjun had grown gaunt these days; Lü Liang had raised her, taught her, been father and master to her—she could not yet recover from this blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming spoke with her a while longer, telling her that if she ever needed help, she could come to Wangyue Island—he would assist her as much as he could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he could not accept Lü Liang’s third-rank spiritual seed without offering something in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lü Wanjun, overwhelmed by grief, was distracted—she may not have heard him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another half-day passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Qin Ming had expected,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast surge had not fully retreated—it had merely lurked around the city, and now, under the beast kings’ command, surged back toward Canghai Immortal City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1321,"2026-06-20T20:44:53.217Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","6097af3de066403814a8fd046c74cb3e8d0ce9226272673c35d9862596ff2263","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-247","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-245",755,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-cover.jpg"]
