Chapter 400

Qin Ming stood up and clenched his fists tightly.

He felt the surging Qi and blood power within his body, like that of an ancient giant beast.

His whole person was filled with self-confidence.

"With this punch, even if a Nascent Soul cultivator were to get close to me, they wouldn't be able to withstand it, right?"

"And what kind of realm would that 'breaking the void with martial arts and becoming a saint in the flesh' be?"

"Surpassing ordinary Transformed Great Demons, breaking the boundaries of bloodline and flesh, reshaping the true power of the flesh, even Nascent Souls could be crushed."

Qin Ming couldn't help but yearn for the realms to come.

"Now my physical strength and True Dan have both grown by a large circle, comparable to Nascent Soul old monsters in the Body Refinement realm."

"After enduring for so long, I can finally be considered to have made it; from now on, I can be considered to have stepped into the ranks of truly top-tier cultivators."

"I'm in a very good mood today, I should drink a large cup of wine!"

"Sigh, it's just that this Demonic Flame Wine hasn't had enough time to brew yet, what a pity."

"Otherwise, my magic power cultivation could both break through to Jin Dan perfection."

"However, this day is also coming soon."

……

On the other side.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat and the Profound Water Crocodile rode the Silver-Winged Frost Bees, and after flying for several days, they finally arrived at the Fox Clan's holy land, Twilight Mist Mountain.

After they arrived, they immediately sent a message to Yue Yue Lingyan.

A moment later.

The little silver fox transformed into a streak of white escape light and came out to meet them.

It blinked its eyes, and seeing that it was the Heaven-Devouring Rat and the other two beasts, it revealed a smile and asked: "Brother Rat, why have you come? It's only been a few short months, and we meet again."

"By the way, where is Senior Qin? Why is it only the three of you?"

"Hehehe, Master is busy." The Heaven-Devouring Rat winked at the little silver fox, "We have come this time because we have brought good things."

Immediately, the little silver fox saw the Heaven-Devouring Rat's mysterious appearance and was somewhat confused.

It brought them before Yue Yue Lingyan.

"Heaven-Devouring Rat King, how have you been lately?"

"How do you have the time to run to my place?"

Yue Yue Lingyan's voice was ethereal and melodious, echoing in the cave dwelling.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat stepped forward and explained their purpose, then took out the two Bi Luo Huang Quan Pills that Qin Ming had given it and handed them to Yue Yue Lingyan.

"Hehehe! Thanks to Senior Silver Moon's blessing, I'm doing alright."

"Recently, Master accidentally obtained a miraculous pill, which also has incredible abilities for the demon race, so he specifically ordered me to deliver it."

Yue Yue Lingyan's beautiful eyes suddenly brightened; she took the pill bottle and opened it to look.

She only saw two pale yellow pills lying quietly inside, emitting an extremely rich aura; even she smelled an extraordinary aura.

"Is this the legendary 'Bi Luo Huang Quan Pill'?"

"Heaven-Devouring Rat King, you call this doing 'alright'? You're practically thriving, aren't you?"

"Under Fellow Daoist Qin, you have a constant supply of miraculous pills and medicines; this is much better than when you were the mountain king in the Beast Roar Mountain Range."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat nodded, "Haha! Master told me to keep a low profile when out and about."

"It's alright, it's alright."

Yue Yue Lingyan put the Bi Luo Huang Quan Pill under her delicate nose and sniffed it again.

"This pill is indeed extremely rare, but why do I smell a trace of Jin Dan aura?"

"Could it be that this pill was refined using a Jin Dan?"

Hearing this, the Heaven-Devouring Rat was startled, secretly thinking that it was indeed worthy of being a Tier 4 Demon Saint, able to perceive the crux of the matter at a glance.

However, it was naturally impossible for it to reveal the ingredients of this pill; otherwise, even she, as a Great Demon Saint, would be greatly shocked.

"Hehehe! How this was refined, I wouldn't know..."

"This pill is extremely precious; Fellow Daoist Qin has a heart. Thank him on my behalf." Yue Yue Lingyan revealed a meaningful smile and said.

The little silver fox on the side, seeing that what the Heaven-Devouring Rat brought was a high-tier pill that could enable her to break through tiers, was also extremely excited.

"This little one thanks Brother Rat, and also thanks Senior Qin on behalf of this little one for bestowing this pill."

"Hehe! No need to be polite, how could I, your grandfather, forget you, little silver fox, when I'm enjoying blessings?"

Afterward, Yue Yue Lingyan arranged for the three spirit beasts to have a place to practice and break through on Twilight Mist Mountain.

……

On the other side, inside the Small Spirit Realm.

Qin Ming was standing in front of that Feng You Ghost Jujube tree.

At this moment, the strange spirit plant before his eyes was undergoing some kind of incredible change.

Because up until now, Qin Ming didn't know how many corpses of demonic creatures and ghost cultivators he had buried for it.

The vast majority were all corpses above the Jin Dan stage.

In the end, even the Holy Son of the Demon Gate at Jin Dan perfection became its fertilizer.

It could be said to be terrifying.

The entire jujube tree was filled with gloomy energy, emitting wisps of demonic energy lingering around it.

Originally, when Qin Ming planted this tree, it was to collect the Jin Dan spirit item, "Profound Baleful Spirit Liquid."

But right now, the baleful energy had already accumulated to an unprecedented degree.

Strange demonic light flickered uncertainly on the branches of the jujube tree.

The Feng You Ghost Jujube tree began to sprout leaves again, directly growing more than two zhang taller, and dark black jujubes actually grew on the tree.

Immediately, in the void near the jujube tree, streaks of tiny lightning power were born, constantly wandering on the branches of the jujube tree.

Following that, three golden entries refreshed in Qin Ming's field of vision:

【Name】: Thunder Origin Demon Jujube 【Entry】: Space-Time Leaf X5 (Maturity 2%) 【Name】: Thunder Origin Demon Jujube 【Entry】: Abundant Lifespan X5 (Maturity 2%) 【Name】: Thunder Origin Demon Jujube 【Entry】: Origin Demonic Energy X1 (Maturity 1%) "Thunder Origin Demon Jujube?"

"Origin Demonic Energy?!"

Qin Ming was slightly surprised; clearly, the ghost jujube tree before his eyes had indeed advanced and undergone a massive change.

The entry that actually refreshed contained a wisp of 【Origin Demonic Energy】, which was the same as the core demonic energy on the altar of the Origin Demon Pearl. Qin Ming immediately remembered something; his spiritual sense entered the Origin Demon Pearl and took out a jade slip from the bookshelf to check.

Finally, in one place, he found the relevant introduction to demonic plants, which clearly stated:

Tier 3 Low-grade Demonized Variant—Thunder Origin Demon Jujube.

This demonic plant, even in the Blood Universe Realm, only grows in a few places of gloomy underworld.

As a demonic plant, it feeds on lightning and demonic energy, and can take root in the void; as long as there are enough corpses and lightning, it can advance and grow infinitely.

The demon jujubes it produces are spirit items that help demonic cultivators condense a Demon Infant.

It can be said to be an object that seizes the creation of heaven and earth; even the sects in the Blood Universe Realm would drool with envy if they saw it.

The branches of the Thunder Origin Demon Jujube are constantly being tempered by lightning and feed on it; mixing its branches into refined magic treasures can even help resist the Nascent Soul heavenly tribulation.

The longer the years, the more abundant the lightning power absorbed, and the more powerful the magic treasure.

"This is truly a good thing!"

"When the Profound Water Crocodile returns, I will let it bombard this tree with divine lightning to let it grow vigorously... perhaps it can grow to the level of Tier 3 supreme-grade, or even Tier 4."

In the days that followed.

Qin Ming returned to his daily farming and cultivation.

Since the death of the Demon Gate Holy Son, the Five Elements Mountain Range had returned to a period of calm.

But he knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

Not long ago.

Qin Ming had secretly followed the tunnel dug out by the Heaven-Devouring Rat to go under the Tier 4 spirit vein of the Five Elements Mountain again to investigate near the secret realm of the Profound Origin Sect's mountain gate.

It is estimated that the date chosen by the Yin Demon Sect and the Divine Dao Mountain for the ceremony is also approaching; many high-tier cultivators have been added to guard the entrance of the secret realm.

Even the Blood Refining Demon Gate has several true disciples, which can be said to be heavily guarded.

These demonic cultivators seem to have already set their sights on the secret treasures of this ancient great sect.

Because the Blood Refining Demon Gate disciples who descended to the realm cannot stay in the human realm for a long time, they have begun to use all means.

But fortunately, that Seven-Marvels Treasure Tree still shows no signs of blooming.

Even if the ceremony is held successfully, it is estimated that it will take several years.

Half a month later.

Inside the Small Spirit Realm.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat brought the Profound Water Crocodile and the Silver-Winged Frost Bees back from the Fox Clan's holy land.

"Master, we are back! Hehehe!"

Its demonic power aura had already broken through to the Tier 3 perfection realm; the whole rat was in high spirits, heroic and spirited, walking with a gust of wind.

And the Profound Water Crocodile and the Silver-Winged Frost Bees had also broken through to the Tier 3 late-stage level.

"Hmm, not bad, you didn't waste my spirit pills." Qin Ming looked at his three pet beasts and nodded slightly.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat originally intended to show off a bit more, after all, it had taken a step ahead and broken through to Tier 3 perfection.

Corresponding to the Jin Dan perfection realm among humans.

But when its demonic sense fell on Qin Ming, it couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "Master, you... you have cultivated to the True Dan perfection realm of the 'Heavenly Demon Refining Form Strategy'?!"

Qin Ming said indifferently: "Exactly."

Heaven-Devouring Rat: "..."

"Master is truly unprecedented! I heard that at True Dan perfection, one can contend with the Nascent Soul realm relying solely on physical strength."

"Congratulations to Master for your great progress in divine arts! My little progress compared to yours is simply like the light of a firefly competing with the bright moon."

"Like a mayfly compared to the vast sea..."

"Alright, stop the flattery." Qin Ming glanced at it, "There are more spirit plants in the Small Spirit Realm recently, you take good care of them for me."

"That is for sure, leave it to me." The Heaven-Devouring Rat patted its chest.

Afterward, Qin Ming called the Profound Water Crocodile over and communicated with it, learning that after it advanced to Tier 3 late-stage, its lightning divine ability had also greatly improved.

It was just right to send it to feed lightning to the Thunder Origin Demon Jujube.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat saw that the ghost jujube tree had taken on a new look, its appearance completely changed, and it clicked its tongue in wonder: "The creation of the Great Dao is truly miraculous, that even such spirit plants can be born."

"I don't know how these demon jujubes taste..."

Boom-crack!

But before it could finish its exclamation, it saw the Profound Water Crocodile spit out divine lightning as thick as a bucket, bombarding the Thunder Origin Demon Jujube.

"You scared me to death, Second Brother, you didn't even say hello..."

A miraculous thing happened; the lightning fell on the pitch-black demon jujube tree trunk and was instantly absorbed completely.

It didn't cause any harm to it at all; instead, it grew even more happily.

……

……

The days of farming and cultivation passed quickly.

Time flowed, and two years passed in a flash.

The ten mu of Heavenly Net Fruit planted by Qin Ming in the Five Elements Mountain spirit fields finally all matured.

In his field of vision, three golden entries were clearly visible.

【Name】: Heavenly Net Fruit 【Entry】: Source of Magic Power X5 (Maturity 100%, harvestable) 【Name】: Heavenly Net Fruit 【Entry】: Source of Qi and Blood X5 (Maturity 100%, harvestable) 【Name】: Heavenly Net Fruit 【Entry】: Regenerative Spirit Seed X5 (Maturity 100%, harvestable) As a Tier 3 high-grade spirit plant, the Heavenly Net Fruit should logically have a very scarce yield.

But Qin Ming's ten mu of spirit fields were laden with fruit, hanging full of dark red nuts; this is the main material for refining the high-tier spirit medicine "Heavenly Net Powder."

This precious medicine has the great efficacy of bringing flesh back to bones and bringing the dead back to life.

Li Lan saw so many Heavenly Net Fruits laden with fruit and was also an eye-opener, feeling heartfelt admiration and respect for Qin Ming:

"Shopkeeper Lu's spirit plant attainments have reached the realm of a Tier 3 Grandmaster, and I fear that in the Great Jin, it is enough to rank in the top ten."

"Congratulations!"

Qin Ming harvested all the Heavenly Net Fruits in the ten mu of spirit fields, and three blue entry leaves instantly appeared in his sea of consciousness.

Afterward, he spent several more days refining these Heavenly Net Fruits into the Tier 3 high-grade precious medicine "Heavenly Net Powder."
