Chapter 429: Nascent Soul Ceremony

"So it is Fellow Daoist Long Mu of the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World, please come in!"

Qin Ming made a gesture of invitation, inviting her with an extremely enthusiastic attitude.

Li Huo Shangren on the side twitched his face.

The other party's attitude toward him just now was not like this.

"Then this old woman will be disrespectful." True Monarch Long Mu nodded slightly.

When Qin Ming returned to the Southern Wilderness, he had also learned and obtained quite a lot of information about the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World from the exchanges between Yue Yue Lingyan and the Black Sail ship captain Shi Jin.

The East Sea had produced Soul Transformation Venerables continuously for a long time in the past, and it was a large Immortal Cultivation World.

The Penglai Sect had also produced Soul Transformation stage Venerables, and it is said that it had the inheritance of a Penglai Immortal Tree to ensure that the fire of inheritance would not be extinguished, and producing a Soul Transformation stage again was only a matter of time.

Large sects like the Penglai Sect certainly did not lack Nascent Soul mid-late stage Great Cultivators.

And now, the silver-haired old woman "True Monarch Long Mu" before him was precisely from the "Penglai Immortal Sect".

Compared to the Penglai Immortal Sect, Li Huo Palace's pattern and level were still much lower.

After all, Li Huo Palace had not produced a Soul Transformation cultivator, and the founding ancestor had only reached the late Nascent Soul stage, and now his whereabouts were unknown.

Who is strong and who is weak.

Qin Ming could observe a thing or two from Li Huo Shangren's attitude toward True Monarch Long Mu.

The three of them flew down to the island.

Passing by the spirit field on the main peak, True Monarch Long Mu couldn't help but stop and watch.

"Dragon Blood Sacred Tree, Five Elements Origin Qi Spirit Peach, Three-Crimson Soul-Returning Grass, Jade Emperor Spirit Rice..."

She listed these rare spirit plants that were hard to see in the outside world one by one.

"This old woman previously heard various rumors about Fellow Daoist Qin, and still maintained a skeptical attitude; now that I see it with my own eyes, Fellow Daoist Qin's spirit plant attainment has truly reached the realm of transformation, or even better."

True Monarch Long Mu's gaze was deep, and when she saw the dazzling spirit plants on the main peak, she revealed an extremely appreciative expression.

Qin Ming was also slightly surprised: "It seems Fellow Daoist Long Mu is also a person on this path?"

Just at this moment.

Li Huo Shangren on the side explained upon hearing this: "Fellow Daoist Qin is right; Fellow Daoist Long Mu has obtained the spirit plant inheritance of the Penglai Immortal Sect and is a genuine Tier 4 mid-grade spirit plant master."

His implication was also to remind Qin Ming that the status and position of a Tier 4 mid-grade spirit plant master were clearly superior to an ordinary Nascent Soul, not to mention that the other party's background and roots were extremely deep.

Li Huo Shangren had also accidentally met True Monarch Long Mu at an exchange meeting between fellow daoists, and in fact, their relationship hadn't reached the point of being very familiar.

He reminded him out of caution, hoping Qin Ming would be careful in his words and actions, so as not to be impulsive as a young man and say things he shouldn't say.

"Oh, is that so?"

"So Fellow Daoist Long Mu is actually a Tier 4 mid-grade spirit plant master, disrespectful, disrespectful!"

Although Qin Ming had a pile of Tier 4 spirit plants in his Small Spirit Realm, he still maintained a humble and polite posture.

"Qin's little skill has made Fellow Daoist Long Mu praise me excessively."

True Monarch Long Mu shook her head, "Hehehe! Fellow Daoist Qin is the one hiding his clumsiness; although the spirit plants planted here are mainly Tier 3, wanting to cultivate them to this quality level still requires extremely high-level skills."

She was also a person who knew the goods, and unlike others, she saw the key at a glance.

Even some spirit plants that had gone extinct in the Immortal Cultivation World could be seen here, which was enough to explain the problem.

True Monarch Long Mu was well-versed in the way of spirit plants and could be said to be particularly fond of this.

On her way to handle matters in the Black Sea, she heard that the newly promoted Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World was a spirit farmer by background and was also a spirit plant master, walking step by step to the present, which couldn't help but arouse her curiosity.

If it were just an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator condensing the Nascent Soul, she wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to run here.

True Monarch Long Mu had her own plans in coming here; if True Monarch Moon-Gazing was just a name without substance, she would just prepare to say hello and leave.

But if the other party truly had unique insights in the way of spirit plants, she also harbored the intention of making friends... True Monarch Long Mu felt an extremely strong sixth sense from the first moment she saw Qin Ming, although the other party looked ordinary.

Qin Ming was only just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, but she had a feeling of being unable to see through him.

After watching him on the spirit island, she became even more certain of her guess.

After entering the main hall.

Qin Ming offered spirit tea to the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs.

"Fellow Daoist Long Mu, this is the island's specialty Snow Soul Spirit Tea, which is also personally planted and cultivated by Qin; you should taste how it tastes?"

True Monarch Long Mu smiled and took a light sip: "Hmm, it is indeed a good tea that is hard to come by."

Immediately, she put down the teacup, took out an exquisite medicine bottle, and handed it to Qin Ming: "I congratulate Fellow Daoist Qin on the Nascent Soul perfection, may your immortal path be evergreen; a small gift, not expressing my sincerity."

"Then Qin will thank Fellow Daoist Long Mu for your kindness." Qin Ming did not refuse and directly took the medicine bottle from the other party's hand.

He just opened it slightly to look, and a strange pill fragrance spread throughout the main hall.

Only to see three light purple spirit pills lying inside, emitting a strong pill halo.

Li Huo Shangren raised his eyebrows upon seeing this pill, and was moved: "Clear Void Pill?"

"Clear Void Pill?" Qin Ming asked suspiciously.

His "Source Dao Alchemy Classic" and "Blood Refining Alchemy Classic" had no relevant records.

I think it should be some kind of unique spirit pill for the Nascent Soul stage in the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World.

"Exactly, this pill is called 'Clear Void Pill', which is refined from the unique Tier 4 sea beast demon core of the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World, and has great help for increasing and consolidating the magic power of the early Nascent Soul stage."

"This pill is quite rare and only available in the Penglai Immortal Sect of the East Sea."

"Fellow Daoist Qin is truly blessed."

Li Huo Shangren also introduced it with envy.

"I didn't expect it to be such a precious spirit pill, then Qin will thank Fellow Daoist Long Mu for your kindness again." Qin Ming also thanked her again upon hearing this.

Li Huo Shangren watched from the side; although there was no big change on the surface, his heart was already mixed with five flavors.

He couldn't help but see that True Monarch Long Mu had the intention of making friends with this newly promoted Nascent Soul of the Southern Wilderness.

After some pleasantries, Qin Ming began to chat with the two.

"Fellow Daoist Qin looks extremely young; is it true that you condensed the Nascent Soul at only three hundred years old?" True Monarch Long Mu looked at Qin Ming's young appearance and couldn't help but ask.

Qin Ming smiled indifferently and replied: "Exactly, the cultivation method Qin cultivates focuses on health preservation and is not good at killing, and when I was young, I once took a Fixed Face Pill."

When they heard "Fixed Face Pill", the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs also revealed expressions of sudden realization at the same time.

Because reaching this step of the Nascent Soul, most cultivators are stuck in the early Nascent Soul stage and find it difficult to advance further.

The younger the age when condensing the Nascent Soul, the more lifespan one has to impact the later realms, representing greater potential for the future.

True Monarch Long Mu heard that Qin Ming had succeeded in condensing the Nascent Soul at only three hundred years old, and her intention to make friends became even stronger.

Li Huo Shangren was also secretly astonished; a loose cultivator without sect resources to support him could walk to this step, and without thinking, he knew that he must have great opportunities and great luck.

However, those who could mix to this point, who didn't have a few secrets, so he was relieved.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, as a loose cultivator, only took three hundred years to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, which is enough to show that you are a heaven-sent talent."

"Forgive this seat for asking presumptuously, what are your plans for the future? With your spirit plant skills and cultivation potential, staying in the Southern Wilderness is truly too much of a waste of talent."

"If Fellow Daoist Qin doesn't mind and is willing to join the Dao-Protecting Alliance of the Great Jin, this old man can make the decision, and I can guarantee that the treatment will not be worse than mine."

Li Huo Shangren seemed to see True Monarch Long Mu's intention in her words and actually took the lead to issue an invitation.

True Monarch Long Mu's expression moved slightly.

Clearly, Li Huo Old Monster's thick-skinned behavior caused her a trace of displeasure.

"I fear Qin has to refuse Fellow Daoist Ding's kindness; Qin is still used to being alone and has no intention of joining any force." Qin Ming politely refused. The three countries of the Central Continent were engulfed in flames of war, and although he now had the strength to deal with it and protect himself, he naturally wanted to stay away from this place and didn't want to get involved in right and wrong.

True Monarch Long Mu actually also wanted to issue an invitation; after all, being able to pull in a Nascent Soul loose cultivator with a clean background.

Not only could it make the sect's overall strength rise again, but it was also a large amount of merit.

"Then since that's the case, Fellow Daoist Qin has just succeeded in condensing the Nascent Soul, and I fear you have many questions about this realm; although we two are also trapped in the early Nascent Soul stage and cannot advance further, we are also willing to exchange with Fellow Daoist Qin." True Monarch Long Mu said with a light smile.

Qin Ming's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he immediately became energetic, "Oh? Then Qin naturally cannot ask for more."

Since Qin Ming advanced to the Nascent Soul, he had never had a good interaction with Nascent Soul fellow cultivators, and he was a blank sheet about things in this circle; right now, taking advantage of the Nascent Soul Ceremony not yet starting, it was a good opportunity.

Li Huo Shangren, as the Supreme Elder of Li Huo Palace of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, was a chess player controlling the situation of the Central Continent Immortal Cultivation World.

He naturally had a lot of the latest front-line intelligence here.

Just chatting with him for a few words, Qin Ming learned about the abnormality of the Blood-Colored World descending realm passage, such important information.

Such secret intelligence, if placed in an organization that specializes in selling intelligence, could be sold for a considerable amount of spirit stones.

Besides that, True Monarch Long Mu, as a high-tier cultivator of the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World's "Penglai Sect".

Qin Ming's conversation with her was truly an eye-opener, and he also learned about the secrets of foreign Immortal Cultivation Worlds.

When he goes to travel in the East Sea in the future, he can also master some important information in advance and take fewer detours.

Perhaps he can also make this connection with her.

After all, Qin Ming's current main style is reputation, making friends widely.

After some exchange, Qin Ming asked Wu Jiang to select two excellent cave dwellings on the main peak for the two True Monarchs to rest.

……

Time passed in a flash.

Three days later, the Nascent Soul Ceremony officially began.

Qin Ming walked out of the cave dwelling, his massive spiritual sense covering the Spirit-Dwelling Archipelago.

Outside the spirit island, countless mounts, carriages, spirit light flying birds, magic tool flying shuttles, came from all over the world, all gathering at Moon-Gazing Lake.

The Nascent Soul Ceremony was the most grand event in the Immortal Cultivation World; being able to see the appearance of the Nascent Soul was something many cultivators dreamed of in their lives.

Major immortal city merchants, sect leaders, loose cultivator great experts, and representatives of all parties arrived one after another, numbering in the tens of thousands.

Foundation Establishment Great Experts and Golden Core Old Ancestors, who were rarely seen on weekdays, were also everywhere.

But those who could be invited to the island were all cultivators at the middle level and above in the Immortal Cultivation World.

Most low-tier cultivators were celebrating and having fun on other islands of the Spirit-Dwelling Archipelago.

Even the seats for the banquet were divided into areas according to the order of the Immortal Cultivation World's ranks and status; the outskirts of the spirit island were seats for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, the hillside was for Golden Core stage, and the Tier 4 spirit vein on the main peak was for Nascent Soul stage seats.

Of course, there was also a table separately reserved for Qin Ming's three spirit pets.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a spiritual energy-rich paradise in the world..."

The cultivators who went up to the island were all shocked by the scene before them.

Immediately after, the sound of singing and congratulating sounded one after another.

Forces from all sides appeared one after another.

Besides the forces of the Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World, there were also some large sects from neighboring Immortal Cultivation Worlds.

"Am I seeing things? Isn't the senior in the python robe standing next to True Monarch Moon-Gazing, True Monarch Li Huo of Li Huo Palace?"

"Eh? And who is the Nascent Soul senior holding the dragon wood staff next to him? Why have I never heard of her?"

Just at this moment.

A Golden Core True Person with some knowledge pondered for a moment, then said in surprise: "Dragon Wood Divine Staff... Hiss! Could it be True Monarch Long Mu of the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World!"

"True Monarch Moon-Gazing's lineup is truly big enough to be able to make friends with such figures."

"May I ask this fellow daoist, what kind of force is this Penglai Sect? Is it stronger than Li Huo Palace?"

"Hmm, a large sect in the East Sea that has produced Soul Transformation stage Venerables, you say if it's strong or not?"

"Hiss~"

Just at this moment, violent fluctuations echoed in the nearby space.

Following a flash of rainbow light.

Two escape lights with massive auras arrived in an instant and fell onto the main peak.

"True Monarch Wanbao of the Ten Thousand Dao Merchant Alliance is here to congratulate!"

"True Monarch You Sha of the West Nether Immortal Cultivation World's Yellow Sand Sect is here to congratulate!"

Following the appearance of two more Nascent Soul big shots, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell into suffocation.

The cultivators below couldn't imagine even if they were beaten to death that they could see so many top-tier Great Expert cultivators in their lifetime.

Qin Ming also stepped forward and enthusiastically greeted the two Nascent Soul cultivators he had never met before.

True Monarch Wanbao of the Ten Thousand Dao Merchant Alliance was a middle-aged man in the appearance of a merchant, wearing a jade robe embroidered with gold coin patterns, and wearing a full ten luxurious storage rings on his hands, looking like he had extremely rich assets.

The True Person Wanbao of the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance was a middle-aged man with the appearance of a merchant, dressed in a jade robe embroidered with gold coin patterns, and wearing a full ten luxurious storage rings on his hands; one look was enough to tell that his net worth was incomparably vast.

True Monarch Wanbao always had a gentle smile on his face, giving people a feeling of being approachable and like a spring breeze.

And True Monarch Qing Xuan Sha from the West Nether was sturdy in figure, wearing a simple and plain yellow robe.

"Qin has met the two fellow daoists who have come from afar, please take your seats."

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Qin on the Nascent Soul perfection; hearing a hundred times is not as good as seeing once."

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Qin."

After some pleasantries and offering congratulatory gifts, the two who had just arrived also took their seats.

They also saw True Monarch Long Mu from the East Sea Immortal Cultivation World, couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and hurriedly greeted her.

After True Monarch Wanbao sat down, he looked around the table, then asked Li Huo Shangren:

"Where is that old man True Person Han Ya? Didn't he clamor that he wanted to come?"

"This old man arrived a step early, he seems to have something to delay him, he will arrive late." Li Huo Shangren frowned slightly and thought, then said.

"What else could that old brat have to do?" True Monarch Qing Xuan Sha seemed to be familiar with several people.

At the same time.

In the sky above the border between Wei Country and the Beast-Crying Mountain Range.

A shocking rainbow escape light crossed the sky, appearing thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye; it was a Green Luan Treasure Carriage.

Inside sat three people: a palace-dressed beautiful woman holding a small silver fox in her arms, a sturdy man like an iron tower, and a green-robed youth.

"Fellow Daoist Han Ya, thank you for coming personally to deliver the invitation and lead the way." Yue Yue Lingyan smiled lightly and said to the green-robed youth.

And the other sturdy man was the Ancient Mountain Demon Saint of the Mountain-Crushing Giant Ape Royal Clan, with a Tier 4 mid-stage cultivation realm, equivalent to a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator of the human race.

Sitting in the same carriage with two such Great Demon Saints.

Han Ya Shangren was already sitting on pins and needles, wishing he could jump out of the carriage immediately... "Uh hehe! Fellow Daoist Yue Lingyan, it's just on the way."

'This damn Shopkeeper Lu, actually lied to me!'

'Knowing him is truly the worst luck for eight lifetimes.'
