Longevity: Start by refreshing your entries through farming

On the Muxia Mountain, there was a warm cheer.

The Sky-devouring Rat advanced to the third-stage late-stage demon king, which also attracted the demons in the Fox Clan Holy Land to marvel for a while.

This is a rare event in a century!

Another half-transformed demon appeared in the Fox Clan, which was also a natural deterrent to the surrounding demons and a symbol of the strength of the clan.

A group of demon beasts pointed at the main peak of the Holy Mountain with great envy.

Not all demon beasts can get such an opportunity to transform from mortal to saint.

The path of advancement for demon beasts is extremely difficult. Every time they advance to a small realm, they have to go through the test of thunder tribulation. The thunder tribulation of the big realm is several times stronger than that of the human race, and the path of cultivation is even more difficult.

Therefore, every step taken by the demon beast requires not only strong cultivation strength, but also a certain amount of luck and opportunity.

Only with luck can they survive the grinding of thunder tribulation.

Yue Lingyan looked at the distance, her red lips moved, and she said to Qin Ming beside her: "Fellow Daoist Qin is really willing to give it up. I see that set of five-element command flags is probably of great origin, right?"

"It can actually form a four-elements formation, integrate the five-element spiritual energy into one, arouse the thunder and fire of heaven and earth, and resist the thunder tribulation. Its power is almost catching up with the power of spiritual treasures."

"Fellow Daoist Lingyan is too kind. This thing is also a great opportunity for the Sky-Devouring Rat. It was obtained from a demon by accident."

"It is said that the demon cultivator also obtained it from a secret realm."

"Originally there was only one Vermillion Bird flag. Later, the Sky-Devouring Rat broke the restriction in it and obtained the complete refining method, so he collected all the spiritual materials."

"I simply refined the remaining four command flags for it. I didn't expect the power of this treasure to be so unexpected."

Qin Ming explained with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Qin really spent a lot of money on his spiritual pet!"

"Even I am quite jealous of this set of magic weapons." Yue Lingyan said jokingly.

Qin Ming really regarded the Sky Devouring Rat as a partner.

Instead of enslaving the monster beast like other human beings.

This is also one of the reasons why she is so willing to make close friends with Qin Ming, a human cultivator.

Inside the cave.

After the Sky Devouring Rat broke through, its body moved and turned into a spiritual light, and instantly flew to Qin Ming.

It looked heroic and said with a smile: "Master! I finally broke through to the late third stage!"

"Well, not bad, I didn't waste the many spiritual things I gave you to eat." Qin Ming nodded with a smile.

After the Sky Devouring Rat was promoted to a semi-transformed monster king, he also gained a great help.

Now its strength has greatly increased, and with the Five Elements Flag magic weapon in its hand, it is also a leader among the monster kings.

Even ordinary Jindan perfect cultivators may not be its opponents.

"My daughter congratulates Brother Rat on his breakthrough!"

"By the way, after you broke through to the semi-transformation realm, can't you initially transform into a human form?"

"Brother Rat, can you show me?"

"Why are you still the same as before, without much change?" The little silver fox at the side asked in confusion.

She has an innate desire to transform into a real human form, even if it is a semi-transformation, she is very envious.

Because her mother Yue Lingyan is a good example, and she is also a rare fairy in the human world.

Qin Ming also felt a little curious, and cast an inquiring look at the Sky-Devouring Rat.

Hearing the little silver fox's question,

The Sky Devouring Rat hesitated for a long time before he smiled awkwardly: "Hehehe! I'm still used to my current appearance, so I won't transform into a human form."

"Neither human nor demon, wait until I can completely transform into a human form before I talk about it."

Qin Ming knew there was something fishy when he heard it. It was estimated that its transformed appearance was not handsome enough, or there were other unspeakable reasons that worried that the little silver fox would be disappointed and look down on it, and so on.

He knew the character of the Sky Devouring Rat too well.

But he didn't point it out and expose its true colors.

Afterwards, Qin Ming saw that the Sky Devouring Rat was very happy, so he rewarded it with some Yulin wine and spiritual fruits and meat.

Let it go to the small spiritual realm to celebrate with the little silver fox, the black water crocodile, and the silver-winged frost bee.

Qin Ming himself followed Yue Lingyan and was invited into her cave to have an in-depth exchange.

"Time flies!"

"In the past few years, the situation in the world of immortal cultivation has changed a lot!"

"Fellow Daoist Qin has been able to stay true to his original aspirations and has been working hard to farm in the Five Elements Mountain, and he has done everything himself. This perseverance is really rare." Yue Lingyan extended her soft hands like sheep fat and poured him a glass of spiritual wine.

"This is the monkey wine that the ancient mountain demon saint gave me. It is said that it is brewed from several different red fruits that have been 500 years old, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon on an ancient tree."

"Although it is not as good as Fellow Daoist Qin's Yulin wine, it still has a unique flavor."

Qin Ming took the spiritual wine and tasted it. A warm flow flowed into his throat, green and astringent, and then the rich spiritual energy flowed through his body.

His eyes lit up immediately: "It's really a good wine! Although the taste is not as memorable as Yulin wine, the effect of this monkey wine is better."

"Fellow Daoist Qin is really talented. Not only is he extremely accomplished in alchemy and spiritual plants, but I didn't expect that he also has unique insights in brewing spiritual wine. I admire him." Yue Lingyan praised.

"But, since Fellow Daoist Qin is so outstanding, doesn't he consider finding a Taoist partner?"

Qin Ming didn't expect Yue Lingyan to ask such a question.

But he saw that the other party's expression was normal and he was calmly sipping the spirit wine, so he probably just asked casually.

After all, Yue Lingyan is now a fourth-level demon saint, which is very different from him, a golden elixir kid from the human race.

Although Qin Ming saved her life and there was some ambiguity in the cold pool of the cave.

But that was all out of necessity, just a coincidence.

Besides, Yue Lingyan's daughter, Little Silver Fox, is now capable of playing tricks, so Qin Ming will naturally not have any ill thoughts towards her.

"Qin is determined to achieve immortality and has no such considerations for the time being."

"Let everything take its course."

Qin Ming replied with a slight smile.

He now has a lifespan of 2,850 years. After harvesting the entries in the future, his lifespan will only be longer.

Even if you have a confidante, you probably have to watch the other person grow old before your eyes.

Yue Lingyan also smiled sweetly and didn't ask any more questions.

Then the topic shifted to the recent situation.

"I learned that after the fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty, many Dali demons lurked into the Great Jin Dynasty. Is this possible?"

Qin Ming nodded slightly, "Yes, but they have all been eliminated by the Wei Dao Alliance with thunderous means."

"At least the southern region of the Great Jin Dynasty is relatively stable."

"It shouldn't fall apart as easily as the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"I have also heard the news. It seems to be closely related to the old ghost Jackdaw. Is this relevant?" Yue Lingyan asked.

"Indeed, it is true. According to Qin's reliable information, Master Jackdaw should have been seriously injured and fled to the territory of Dajin. However, none of the various forces has a specific escape route for him."

"After all, Master Jackdaw lost half his life, was less than ten in strength, and took away all the secret treasures of Xuan Qing Temple. Naturally, he will be coveted by many people."

Qin Ming thought for a moment and then explained.

Yue Lingyan suddenly asked meaningfully: "Don't you dare to be interested in the treasures of Xuanqing Temple, fellow Daoist Qin?"

"That's enough foundation to cultivate the True Monarch Nascent Soul."

"No matter how tempting the treasure is, it must be lived to enjoy it." Qin Ming smiled lightly, and then continued, "Qin is still self-aware. We can't guess the methods of True Lord Yuanying. There is some secret technique to hold the bottom of the box that I haven’t used yet.”

"Maybe it will be bad luck."

"Those who try to take advantage of others are probably seeking their own death."

"After all, no matter how unbearable the Nascent Soul cultivator is, as long as he uses a few methods, killing the golden elixir is not as simple as crushing an ant."

Yue Lingyan chuckled and nodded slightly, "Fellow Daoist Qin is indeed very different from other human races. He is really a wonderful person! Hahaha!"

"What you said is true. Even if the body of the Nascent Soul cultivator is destroyed, as long as the Nascent Soul cultivator is still there, no matter how many Golden Core cultivators there are, it will not help."

"Unless it's like the Holy Son and Saint of the Blood Refining Demon Sect, whose magical powers are not weaker than those of the Nascent Soul Realm monks."

"Because the essence of the True Lord Yuanying is condensed on Yuanying."

"Even if the physical body is destroyed, as long as the Nascent Soul is still there, it is not difficult to find a suitable physical body and return to the cultivation level of the heyday. It is just a matter of time."

"It's just that taking away the body has many requirements for the physical body's basic bones, qualifications, etc. The recovery of the Nascent Soul's strength also depends on the qualifications of the person whose body is taken away."

"However, after the Nascent Soul leaves the body, its longevity will be greatly reduced. If you can't find a physical body to take over in a short period of time, it will be quite troublesome."

It was rare to hear secrets related to the Nascent Soul Realm, and Qin Ming also listened carefully and relished it.

‘It turns out that after Nascent Soul escaped from the body, it also had a lifespan limit. ’

"I also heard about something. People from the Yin Demon Sect and the Blood Refining Demon Sect seem to have found a treasure that can speed up the spiritual plant of the Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree guarding the entrance to the Qingyuan Sect's secret realm. flowering."

"I don't know if it's true or not."

Yue Lingyan said suddenly.

Qin Ming was also extremely surprised when he heard this: "Oh? There is such a heaven-defying treasure in the world? Can it make a thousand-year-old treasure tree bloom?" He has an entry to accelerate ripening, but he has never heard of such heaven-defying methods in the outside world. .

"Exactly, I heard that it is a magic secret treasure, but it needs special rituals and secret techniques." Yue Lingyan nodded slightly, "The ceremony also needs to be held on a specific day."

"I estimate that those demonic monks are waiting for this special opportunity."

"After all, the descent of the Blood World Realm this time can only last ten years. Now three years have passed, and the remaining time is not enough to open the secret realm."

"Only by using special means can it be possible to enter it."

After hearing this, Qin Ming suddenly realized, and couldn't help but ask: "How did fellow Taoist Lingyan learn about such secret things?"

Yue Lingyan didn't hide anything, "Humph, isn't that guy Mahakala Demon Saint? He wants to get a piece of the pie, but he doesn't know where he got the information from."

"Not long ago, he mentioned this matter at our Monster Tribe Council and wanted us to participate, but no resolution was passed."

"That's it. Thank you, fellow Taoist Lingyan, for informing me."

"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Qin. Come on, keep drinking."

Qin Ming stayed at the Fox Clan Holy Land in Muxia Mountain for another two days.

These days, he has learned a lot of the latest information about the upper echelons of the immortal world from Yue Lingyan, the fourth-level demon saint.

It is also crucial for planning your future.

At the same time, Qin Ming also learned a lot about the realm of Yuanying Zhenjun, which benefited him a lot and opened his eyes.

Afterwards, the time was almost up, he said goodbye to Yue Lingyan and prepared to return to the Five Elements Mountain Spiritual Field.

The spiritual plants in the field were still waiting for him to go back and feed them.

But when Qin Ming entered the small spiritual realm, he saw that the four spiritual beasts inside were already drunk.

They were lying on the grass with their legs spread out, unconscious.

A layer of black lines flashed across Qin Ming's forehead. He didn't expect that the Sky-Eating Rat guy actually got the little silver fox drunk.

How to explain this to Yue Lingyan outside

Qin Ming sighed helplessly, then took some of the Earth Spirit Spring from the side and fed it to the little silver fox.

Then he fed a hangover elixir.

"Hiccup~ Brother Rat, my daughter can still drink more"

The little silver fox woke up in a daze.

Although the Yulin wine he brewed is good for improving cultivation, even cultivators or monsters will get drunk if they drink too much.

After all, it is a high-level spiritual wine.

Qin Ming picked up the little silver fox and returned it to Yue Lingyan, saying rather embarrassedly: "I'm really sorry, fellow Daoist Lingyan. I don't know how much spiritual wine the Sky-Devouring Rat gave them."

"Hehehe! It's okay. After all, it's the big day for the Sky-Devouring Rat King to advance, and it's right to celebrate." Yue Lingyan smiled while holding the little silver fox and gently stroked her back.

"Then Qin will take his leave. Thank you for your hospitality these days."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, take care, and we'll meet again another day."

"Definitely!"

Then, Qin Ming turned into a green rainbow and disappeared into the sky.

Yue Lingyan watched Qin Ming go away.

She always had an inexplicable feeling that every time she saw this young cultivator of the human race, there was something different about him.

Judging from her perspective, Qin Ming is a person of extraordinary luck. With his own efforts, he may become a being of the same realm as her in the future.

It can be regarded as making good friends and investing in the future.

…

On the other side.

After Qin Ming flew out of Muxia Mountain, he entered the small spiritual realm.

The Sky-Eating Rat was sleeping soundly with its butt sticking out, and burping constantly.

There was a snot bubble hanging on its nose. How could it look like a third-level late-stage demon king?

“Burp~”

Qin Ming walked over and kicked it on the butt to wake it up.

“It’s been a few days, and you still don’t sleep enough?”

“You kid, you actually got the little silver fox drunk.”

The Sky-Eating Rat jumped up from the ground, rubbed its butt with its hands, opened its misty eyes, and woke up completely in an instant.

After seeing that it was Qin Ming coming over, it sniffed and said with a dry laugh: "Hehehe! Master, you are just drunk, just a little tipsy."

"I didn't drink too much!"

"Well, it's not easy for you to break through to the third stage. I'll let you go this time, but it won't happen again." Qin Ming said.

"This is still in someone else's territory. If the little silver fox has any problems, then fellow Daoist Lingyan will roast you."

"By the way, after you break through to the third stage, you should be more comfortable with the control of the set of five elements flag magic weapons, right?"

The Sky-Eating Rat saw that Qin Ming was just joking with it and didn't mean to blame itself, and then showed strong confidence and answered:

"That's right, master, after the cultivation level breaks through to the third stage, I can exert the true power of this set of third-level top-grade magic weapons, which can be said to be burning the sky and boiling the sea, hehehe!"

After getting the answer, Qin Ming nodded with satisfaction.

Generally speaking, a third-level low-grade magic weapon is suitable for cultivators in the early stage of the Golden Core, and can fully exert its power.

A third-level middle-grade magic weapon is suitable for cultivators in the middle and late stages of the Golden Core.

A third-level high-grade magic weapon requires the cultivation of the late stage of the Golden Core to fully exert its power.

First, the activation of the magic weapon requires not only the cultivator's own mana.

For example, the Sky-Devouring Rat used the cultivation of the middle stage of the third stage to activate a set of five-element flags at the same time, which would consume all its demonic power.

Now that it has become a late-stage demon king, its demon pill has increased dramatically, and it has sufficient demon essence to support the operation of the magic weapon.

Second, it is related to the time it takes to nurture the magic weapon and the proficiency of the magic weapon.

The more powerful the magic weapon is, the greater the consumption required for activation.

For example, the Jade Golden Mirror that Qin Ming obtained, every time he used it, he had to pay the price of his life.

Fortunately, his golden finger with the entry can continuously grow lifespan.

Qin Ming saw that the Silver Wing Frost Bee was still drunk and sleeping, so he did not disturb it and left the small spiritual realm.

He once again used the True Demon Illusion, transformed into the appearance of Shopkeeper Lu, and hid his cultivation to the late stage of foundation building.

Then he shuttled through the Beast Crying Mountains alone and rushed back to the direction of the Five Elements Mountain Spiritual Field.

Seeing this, the Sky-Eating Rat scratched his head in extreme confusion and said depressedly: "Different treatment?!"

But at this moment.

Beyond the dense forest sky hundreds of miles away from Qin Ming.

Two monks wearing magic pattern blood robes were flying side by side at a very fast speed.

The two men looked gloomy.

"Brother Qiu, are we just going to leave like this?"

"That old Jackdaw ghost might be near the Five Elements Mountain Market."

The skinny Blood Refining Demon Sect disciple asked with some reluctance.

"It's too late to find this old ghost. Even if we find him, we can't easily deal with him."

"We have to wait for Senior Brother Jiang Yuan and Senior Sister Lan Bing to arrive."

"Junior Brother Meng, we have more important things to do now."

"Let's go back to Dali and meet up with other fellow disciples."

"Not long ago, Junior Brother Qi sent me a message saying that there is a clue about the secret realm of Qingyuan Sect."

The rough young demon cultivator explained in a leisurely tone.

"Ah?! Is the news true?"

"Didn't you say that it is quite difficult to open the secret realm? You need to wait for a fourth-level top-grade treasure tree to bloom?"

Junior Brother Meng was overjoyed when he heard it.

Compared to the mountain gate secret realm of Qingyuan Sect, the Master Jackdaw is not worth mentioning.

"The Supreme Elder of Yin Demon Sect, Xuanyin Demon Lord, seems to have found a way."

"Hehehe! That's great!"

The two of them flew away at full speed without saying much.

Suddenly!

Two true disciples of the Blood Refining Demon Sect were flying, and suddenly they sensed that there was a lone cultivator not far from them, flying towards them.

"Hehehe! Senior Brother Qiu, I just need some blood essence to recover from my injuries, so leave this person to me."

...
