Qin Ming directed the swarm to fly wildly around the courtyard, commanding them to strike wherever he pointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Primarily, since the Frost Bee queen had evolved, she had grown spiritually attuned to him, their bond tightened, and the entire swarm remained obedient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming approached the withered Blood Poison Vine, gazing at the blooming purple demonic flower. “It can trigger the bees’ evolution—let me see what kind of fruit it will bear?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming used his last three [Ripen] terms, spending two days to fully ripen the three demonic flowers on the withered Blood Poison Vine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the purple petals withered, three purple round fruits formed atop them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming plucked them all—instantly, golden terms flared into streaks of light and entered his spiritual sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five [Leaf of Space-Time] blue terms can rapidly ripen high-grade spiritual plants to a hundred-year maturity, and their effects stack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s expression brightened—this meant he could obtain five hundred-year spiritual plants, or one five-hundred-year plant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He picked up the purple spirit fruit, casually broke open one, and found no flesh inside—only purple-black spirit seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Likely the same as the previous seeds, meant for casting Thorns Art, though he didn’t yet know their exact power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming pondered, deciding to test them on a wild beast one day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The courtyard still contained two mu of medicinal fields; Qin Ming bought more premium spirit herb seeds and planted them—these herbs served both as ingredients for pill refinement and as First-Stage spirit herbs with short growth cycles, ideal for refreshing commonly used terms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found a corner of the medicinal field and planted the five Divine Essence Fruits entrusted to him by Su Yuqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second-Stage spirit plant Divine Essence Fruit is a primary ingredient for refining the Second-Stage Spirit Pill, “Biluo Pill,” which enhances cultivation base of Foundation Establishment Initial Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, with Su Yuqing’s spiritual root talent, her breakthrough to Foundation Establishment was all but certain—she was already planning for life after the breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another half-month passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming’s preparations were nearly complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took his belongings and stepped outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the spirit herb fields east of the marketplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin walked along the field ridges, accompanied by mountain streams, as if entering a secluded, lush fairyland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The environment of a Second-Stage Low-Grade spiritual vein is truly different!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached his five mu of land and began tending the Spirit Fields—first, he turned over the soil in three mu of fields, then evenly sowed the Five-Color Spirit Rice seeds soaked in Spirit Liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, he burned all the Beast Tooth Rice stalks, mixed them with the dung of the Black-Maned Dragon Horse and several other spirit materials, buried them in the other two mu of fields, then planted the Red-Silver Yellow Hemp seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom! Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming chanted the Advanced Spirit Rain Spell and irrigated all the Spirit Fields with spirit rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It lasted for most of the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew～”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The rest is up to time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If all else fails, I’ll just wait for the [Ripen] term to refresh.” In the days that followed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming diligently cultivated day and night, while also indulging in the pastoral rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation life was dull yet fulfilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night fell; the Qingyang Marketplace lit up with lanterns, streets shimmered with light, starlight sprinkled halos overhead, and the air hummed with the warmth of mortal life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming stepped out from the shanty house—originally Su Yuqing’s room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was exhilarated—he had successfully refined two more batches of Spirit Gathering Pills, totaling over twenty! And his luck was extraordinary: every pill was of premium quality!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now nearly on par with Su Yuqing when she first arrived at the marketplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a while, he could attempt refining top-grade spirit pills and strive to become a top-grade pill refining master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming returned to his courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went straight to the quiet chamber, relaxed his body and mind, and sat cross-legged on the woven grass mat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the pill vial—a deep emerald premium Spirit Gathering Pill rolled into his palm, still warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Freshly baked premium pill!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming swallowed the pill and began cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several hours later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A powerful surge of magic power erupted within the Cool Cottage annex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After consuming three premium Spirit Gathering Pills, Qin Ming’s magic power cultivation base officially entered Qi Refining Sixth Layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid his joy at the breakthrough, he also noticed a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how good the pills, they can’t replace food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now developing serious resistance to premium Spirit Gathering Pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through this cultivation session, he easily realized the magic power increase from the pills had become negligible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, continuing to consume Spirit Gathering Pills—even at premium grade—would yield almost no cultivation benefit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To break through to the later stages, he would need to refine higher-grade spirit pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming was quite satisfied with his cultivation progress—steady, unhurried, methodical, solidifying his foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His current magic power base was extraordinarily robust! His Evergreen magic power had become extremely pure, continuous, and enduring, and his dantian had expanded over twice its original size—equivalent to a Qi Refining Seventh Layer late-stage cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The principle: accumulate deeply, strike lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After cultivation, Qin Ming went to the courtyard, slapped his storage bag, and the Qingming Sword instantly appeared in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh! A blue blade aura crisscrossed wildly through the courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face beamed with delight as he chanted the Object Control Spell to guide the magic sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder it was a top-grade magic treasure—aside from high magic power consumption, every other aspect was nearly perfect! There was none of the sluggishness he felt with low-grade magic treasures; spiritual energy flowed through his meridians noticeably faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish! The Qingming Sword circled the entire courtyard, carving a brilliant arc through the air before landing back in Qin Ming’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held the magic sword behind his back, tilted his head up at a forty-five-degree angle toward the stars, assuming a lofty master’s posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden surge of unspoken confidence rose within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt the grandeur of a swordsman with blade in hand, master of all under heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Ming calmed himself and returned the Qingming Sword to his storage bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stay humble. Always stay humble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t get carried away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This level of cultivation means nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1244,"2026-06-20T20:44:51.995Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","02ed100677e5001f0d921cc07092e8059e21d995a7a858ec6dbe6d1bbfa3e10f","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-82","eternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-chapter-80",755,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-starting-with-farming-to-refresh-my-cover.jpg"]
