What’s done cannot be undone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Dao You , please follow me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhiyang Shiren led Qin Ming into a vast underwater treasure vault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand and cast a spell toward the seawater ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deep blue seawater before them parted like a curtain, revealing the underwater world beyond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Fourth-Rank Talisman King of the Star Palace, who specializes in talisman arts, has also studied it—but made no progress whatsoever. It cannot be repaired.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhiyang Shiren sighed in regret, exchanged a few words with him, then left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet half the cultivators remained, since this concerned their own disciples and grand-disciples—they had to pay attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Ya Shiren immediately bowed in solemn respect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, treasures rested upon platforms crafted from giant coral spirit shells, shimmering in five-colored radiance, dazzling the eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming was deeply stunned by the sight, silently marveling that the Eastern Sea cultivation world truly was wealthy and powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, this talisman’s rank and function are incomparable to the Descending Realm Talisman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No. If you insist on this, then you must come with us to the Enforcement Hall for a formal reckoning.” The Jin Dan cultivator from Gujian Gate showed no retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too much knowledge is of no benefit to you, young Qin. Better to focus your energy on advancing your cultivation base—at least until Nascent Soul late stage, or even Soul Transformation, before you’re worthy to learn some of these secrets.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, nearly all the Nascent Soul cultivators on Long Yuan Island had departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some ancient artifacts emitted strange energies but carried no explanation of their use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph! Liu Yu, is this reasonable? Isn’t this bullying with power?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming, hearing this same excuse again, guessed Qingyang Lomo had something he couldn’t say openly, and didn’t press him further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be honest, Zhiyang Dao You  entrusted Qin Mou with an extremely important mission—utterly top secret.” Qin Ming feigned profundity, speaking with deliberate vagueness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to have received some message, and swiftly made his decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehehe! Watch me, Master!” Shitian Shu chuckled, leaping down and snuffling toward the inside of the vault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems to have been used by great forces from the Spirit Realm to monitor their subordinate lower realms.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s goal for this trip had been achieved—and far exceeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming patted its shoulder. “Good. You’ve earned great merit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two more days passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve never used this talisman myself—only heard rumors by chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the circular plaza of Long Yuan Island, bursts of cheers occasionally rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Liu Yu, the Confucian cultivator, now standing in confrontation with several other cultivators before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“May I ask, Zhiyang Dao You , what is this talisman…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph! Liu Yu! We all know you’ve been favored by Zhiyang Zhenjun—do you intend to cheat?” The Gujian Gate Jin Dan cultivator, confident in his righteousness, spoke with firmness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“An ancient talisman passed down from the Spirit Realm!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Dao You , would you consider joining our Alliance as an Elder? The offerings will be generous—you won’t even need to fight personally. For instance, the Fourth-Rank spiritual materials you need for your cultivation will be gathered for you by subordinates.” Zhiyang Shiren, deeply impressed by Qin Ming, extended the invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he had walked far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhiyang Dao You , I still trust my spiritual pet’s instinct—I choose this talisman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet to Qin Ming’s surprise, the Jin Dan late-stage cultivator Liu Yu—who had appeared briefly at the Nascent Soul Exchange—was also present at the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingyang Lomo was struck at a vulnerable point; he fell silent for a moment, then stammered, “Young Qin, rest assured—I would never harm you. My life is in your hands now; we’re tied together on the same rope.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tianhai Alliance’s treasure vault was divided into many zones—apparently, the deeper one went, the higher the rank of the treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I suspect your identity is more than just an Elder of Qingyuan Sect.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He actually believed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Strictly speaking, this ancient talisman is not a single-use consumable. If conditions permit, you can nourish and replenish its spiritual essence—it can be used indefinitely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I offer you one suggestion, Qin Dao You : rather than this talisman, you’d be wiser to choose a Fourth-Rank magic treasure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of emotion crossed Zhiyang Shiren’s stern face, and he said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You may select one item from this section. It’s a small token of appreciation for your contributions since this alliance was formed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow! So many treasures!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming waved his hand, stopping him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Ya Shiren, Long Mu Zhenjun, Xia Yuangong, Long Yangzi, and others had already reserved the entire fourth floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they had fought through five trials and six battles to reach the top ten of the combat tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Qin Ming arrive, they all rose to greet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Dao You  has come.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broken talisman was faintly showing signs of repair! Qin Ming was quietly startled—his life-plant, the Everlasting Immortal Vine, had advanced again, and now possessed the ability to mend broken talismans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shrimp soldiers and crab generals under his soul mark showed no unusual behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had little interest in watching the final top-ten showdown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Ya Shiren approached, his curiosity burning: “Qin Dao You , what did Zhiyang Shiren want with you alone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming asked, “What else is needed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming summoned Hua Tianxiong, preparing to leave Long Yuan Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, this way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the treasures were protected by glowing barriers, and the floor was engraved with a massive array pattern—clearly, security was extremely tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached out and summoned it; the silver ancient talisman became a streak of silver light and landed in his palm, which he then handed to Qin Ming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, it was a broken talisman—its upper-left corner was missing, its spiritual essence severely damaged, and no one knew if it could still be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the street ahead was packed with people, blocking their path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even surpassing those at the Jiaoyi Society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? What use is that?” Shitian Shu became curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, Jipin  spirit stones might work too—but such items are all held by Soul Transformation cultivators. You’d find it very hard to obtain them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhiyang Shiren looked at Shitian Shu with clear surprise. “You have a treasure-finding ability? Truly remarkable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qin Dao You , once this talisman loses the spiritual protection of the array barrier, its damaged areas will rapidly leak spiritual energy. You must find a way to preserve it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I’m not mistaken, judging by the void spiritual runes and seals on it, this talisman is the legendary ‘Jiutian Cangyuan Miaoying Zhenfu.’” Qingyang Lomo spoke with unprecedented gravity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming then sat down and mingled with the other cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After rummaging around, it came to Qin Ming and said: Meanwhile, three men dressed in the attire of Gujian Gate—one of the Eastern Sea’s Four Nascent Soul Powers—blocked their exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Jiutian Cangyuan Miaoying Zhenfu has two primary functions. First, like the Descending Realm Talisman, it allows a cultivator to safely traverse void passages to other lower realms.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming and Hua Tianxiong strolled along the outer streets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he hadn’t obtained more Qingkong Spirit Soil, he had gathered many rare Eastern Sea specialty spiritual materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the path of cultivation is like rowing upstream—stop, and you fall back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the ancient talisman entered, the black vines swayed gently, emitting an ancient aura; their branches glowed with spiritual runes, converging into a river that nourished the talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is definitely a great treasure! Hehehe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Ya Shiren was returning to Da Jin and was heading the same way as Qin Ming, so he planned to travel together for mutual support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shitian Shu also needed to begin preparing for his Tribulation Crossing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second, it can imprint a void coordinate onto an object, allowing you to sense the target’s every movement and share their vision—hence the name ‘Miaoying Zhenfu.’”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were also preparing to depart and return to the Southern Wastelands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just wandering around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could you be candid with Qin Mou?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been promoted by Zhiyang Shiren, but clearly, all resources had to be earned through his own efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Long Yuan Island, Baoyue Pavilion tavern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming observed for a long while but could not discern the nature of the talisman within the yellow barrier, so he asked Zhiyang Shiren:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had it not been for Zhiyang Shiren’s face, he would have left long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s a spiritual material called ‘Youxuan Crystal.’ But this substance is exceedingly rare—even throughout the mortal realm, it’s scarce. Our Qingyuan Sect once kept a few pieces, but so much time has passed—I don’t know if they still remain.” Qingyang Lomo recalled the past, speaking softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the earth-yellow barrier lay a palm-sized, ancient silver talisman, faintly flickering with lightning, emitting a subtle and mysterious aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside Liu Yu stood a beautiful woman, seemingly his consort, who had only Foundation Establishment cultivation. Now, like a guilty child, she timidly said, “It’s not my husband’s fault—I took the wrong book and accidentally included this page in the trade.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This talisman has been stored in the vault for a long time. Records say it was brought back by our ancestors from a large secret realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed to have fallen silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet what puzzled Qin Ming was that, despite the Immortal Mansion Fair having lasted so long, the demonic cultivators had remained completely inactive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a few remained on the island, tasked with leading their disciples home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming smiled: “Forgive me for amusing Zhiyang Dao You .”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Qingyang Lomo’s words, Qin Ming and Shitian Shu both froze in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming took the talisman; a flash of spiritual light appeared in his hand, and he casually tossed it into his Little Spirit Realm, planting it directly into his life-plant, the Everlasting Immortal Vine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? I didn't expect Brother Qin to have a spiritual pet with such an extraordinary bloodline Tianfu , and such high spiritual awareness that it can speak human language,\" said Zhiyang Shangren with keen interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them had seen Qin Ming being summoned alone by Zhiyang Shangren, and they too were filled with curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Ghost, you went to great lengths to urge me to choose this talisman—do you recognize its origin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cast a spell toward the light barrier at the center of the giant clam, and the earth-yellow barrier immediately retracted and vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Qin Ming turned his gaze to observe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the weight of their earnest invitation, Qin Ming accompanied the two Nascent Soul cultivators of Penglai Sect to watch their disciples’ combat trials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because among the troublemakers ahead, he recognized one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least he now understood the purpose and origin of this talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent days, Qin Ming had watched several Golden Core cultivators’ duels; though some displays were noteworthy, they failed to stir his interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Qin Ming fell into deep thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thus it has remained here all along.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Zhiyang Shangren paused, then said no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Qin Ming’s knowledge, Liu Yu’s next opponent would be the prodigy of the Ancient Sword Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you immediately set your eyes on this treasure—what an extraordinary talent!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After selecting the treasure, Zhiyang Shangren took Qin Ming through a formation and teleported them back to Long Yuan Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming asked Qingyang Laomo inside the Xue Futu:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Its rank naturally surpasses the fourth tier—it is a relic inherited from the Spirit Realm, similar to a 'Boundary-Breaking Talisman.'\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, I'll drive them away,\" Hua Tianxiong said at once, his large belly jiggling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also took the opportunity to promote his Qianji Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening to his account, Qin Ming couldn't help asking: \"To be honest, Qingyang Laomo, your knowledge of the Upper Realms is astonishing—you seem to know every detail about Spirit Realm artifacts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Tianxiong also acquired many fine items during this grand gathering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming reciprocated each gift in turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shi Tian Rat quietly climbed onto Qin Ming’s shoulder, gazing at the scene before him, eyes gleaming, drool dripping helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, who would dare provoke Liu Yu, a cultivator so favored by Nascent Soul experts? But now was the most intense moment of the Immortal Mansion gathering’s combat competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the tempting rewards of Core Formation and Nascent Soul cultivation materials, numerous Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators unleashed every trick they had, fighting desperately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shi Tian Rat, it's your turn to act,\" Qin Ming silently commanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the Shi Tian Rat led Qin Ming to a clamshell over a zhang tall, pointing at the central earth-yellow barrier and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, you flatter me, you flatter me,\" the Shi Tian Rat bowed with both hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shi Tian Rat was even more excited, laughing triumphantly: \"Master, didn't I do a great job?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Qin, your expertise in spiritual plants and elixir arts is unparalleled—I am deeply impressed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because by doing so, their goal had been achieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since you accepted Brother Guan’s spirit stones, you should have handed over that page of Jin Que’s scripture.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming looked around—the treasures in this area were all fourth-tier or higher: various spiritual materials, artifacts, elixirs, cultivation techniques, even fourth-tier magic treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming politely declined again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Qin, if you one day succeed in repairing this broken talisman and gather another rare item, you may receive an unexpected reward—heeheehee!\" Qingyang Laomo chuckled wickedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yu’s face twisted in conflict; he gritted his teeth and said: \"Three fellow cultivators, that Jin Que scripture page is not part of this book—I am willing to return double the spirit stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Liu Yu couldn’t take the stage, the Ancient Sword Sect’s next match would be won without a fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s spiritual sense quietly settled upon the Jin Que scripture page.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2340,"2026-06-20T20:44:53.817Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","34a70b3c1db333f8429e88b81f7e2a03d04018ef967850e0dd541bd5b0a474f2","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-726","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-724",755,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-cover.jpg"]
