Longevity: Start Farming with Entries Chapter 174 - 169: Beast Tide Migration

After obtaining the pill formula, Lvu Liang took Qin Ming to several shops to purchase other auxiliary materials for alchemy.

"The resources in the core area are indeed more abundant than outside," Qin Ming chatted with Lvu Liang as they walked.

Lvu Liang smiled lightly and said, "Naturally, the finest products from the four countries circulate here. Today, I’ve only shown Fellow Daoist Qin a small part."

"Fellow Daoist Qin can co often; every now and then, the core area holds exchange etings between Foundation Establishnt cultivators from various countries."

After finishing matters, Lvu Liang warmly invited Qin Ming to visit his residence.

Qin Ming couldn’t refuse, so he agreed.

Lvu Liang’s cultivation dwelling was in the high-end residential area of the core district. Though it couldn’t compare to the cave mansion on Vast Sea Peak, it was also rich in Spiritual Qi.

He led Qin Ming through the alleys of the residential area to a secluded villa with a spacious environnt.

The house was much better compared to those in the inner and outer city.

"Fellow Daoist Lvu is truly a high-level steward of Vast Sea Immortal City. The environnt here is quite remarkable; it should have a Tier Two High-Grade Spiritual Vein environnt, right?" Qin Ming observed the estate and asked casually.

Lvu Liang heard this and said with a hint of pride, "Fellow Daoist Qin, this villa was bestowed upon directly by the City Lord when I was promoted."

Inside the courtyard, Lvu Liang personally brewed a pot of Spirit Tea for Qin Ming, and instructed the servants to prepare a table full of local delicacies.

Halfway through the al, Lvu Liang seed to have sothing to say. He took out a jade box from his chest and placed it in front of Qin Ming, "Fellow Daoist Qin, take a look at this item."

Fellow Daoist Qin opened the jade box and exclaid in surprise, "A Tier Two Middle-Grade Demon Pill, and it’s Wind Attribute?"

"I have a small request, I wonder if... Fellow Daoist Qin could agree?" Lvu Liang asked hesitantly.

Qin Ming frowned upon hearing this, "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lvu wants to use this Demon Pill to refine a pill?"

"Haha! That’s right, but I want to ask Fellow Daoist Qin to refine a Foundation Establishnt Pill." Lvu Liang explained, then handed over a pill formula to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming looked at the formula in his hand and couldn’t help but exclaim, "Using a Demon Pill to refine a Foundation Establishnt Pill?"

"Fellow Daoist Lvu, are you refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill for a junior?"

Lvu Liang sighed, "Ah! Fellow Daoist Qin, you are indeed correct. I have a beloved disciple; her aptitude is decent. She’s been at the stage of Qi Cultivation Perfection for several years, but has struggled to break through due to the lack of a Foundation Establishnt Pill."

"She herself has been taking risks to gather resources by joining Immortal City’s demon hunting teams, running off to the Beast Roar Mountain Range every other day, and I can’t stop her."

"I’m really at my wit’s end... I’ve now obtained the pill formula and gathered all the spiritual materials."

"My original plan was to invite Great Alchemist Sunx Jinnian to help with the refinent."

"But now that you are here, Fellow Daoist Qin, I would like to ask for your assistance."

"As for the conditions... this pill formula can belong to Fellow Daoist Qin, and if the Foundation Establishnt Pill is successfully refined, I’ll take only half, and the rest will also belong to you."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, what do you think..."

After listening to Lvu Liang’s words, Qin Ming contemplated briefly. Since the materials and pill formula are provided by the other party, he could gain a free pill formula and Foundation Establishnt Pill.

It wouldn’t be a bad deal.

So Qin Ming nodded and agreed, "Fellow Daoist Lvu’s devotion to his disciple is comndable. I can promise to help you refine the pill."

"Really? That’s wonderful, Fellow Daoist Qin!"

"No thanks needed for this great favor. If you need anything from , just let know." Lvu Liang imdiately stood up and bowed to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming was taken aback by this gesture, "There’s no need for such formalities, Fellow Daoist Lvu; we’re each getting what we need. Coincidentally, I’m quite interested in this pill formula."

"Just... I’ve never used a Demon Pill to refine Foundation Establishnt Pills before, so I must inform Fellow Daoist Lvu in advance."

"Ah? Then this will be the first ti..."

Lvu Liang’s face twitched upon hearing this. Although other materials were replaceable, the Tier Two Middle-Stage Demon Pill was one of a kind, and failure would an...

As Lvu Liang hesitated, a lively, energetic female cultivator with a clear and beautiful face, around twenty-one or twenty-two years old, rushed in from outside, filled with excitent.

"Master, I’m back! Look what I got!"

"Wow! It slls so good!"

"Hmph! Master, you’re enjoying fine cuisine while I’m away, huh? What delicious food have you prepared now?"

Lvu Liang looked at her casual and unrestrained manner, which lacked a little of a young girl’s restraint, and couldn’t help blushing. He scolded angrily, "What are you making a fuss about? Act your age! How improper!"

"Didn’t you notice we have guests?"

The young woman holding sothing glanced around the room and finally noticed Qin Ming. She stuck out her tongue, bowed slightly, and greeted, "Oh, there’s a senior visiting. Forgive my abruptness."

"No problem." Qin Ming smiled, not minding at all.

Lvu Liang then introduced Qin Ming, "Apologies for her unrestrained behavior, Fellow Daoist Qin. This is my disciple, nad Lvu Wanjun, whom I’ve raised since she was young."

Then Lvu Liang glared at his beloved disciple, "Hurry and pay respects to Elder Qin Ming!"

"I went to great lengths to invite Fellow Daoist Qin to help you refine the Foundation Establishnt Pill, yet you always make worry."

Upon hearing this, Wanjun’s mischievous eyes lit up instantly, and she said excitedly, "Wanjun greets Elder Qin!"

She had naturally heard of Qin Ming’s great reputation and admired this Loose Cultivator who was a Master of Spirit Plants and Alchemy imnsely.

"Haha! No need for such formalities." Qin Ming laughed, then took out a bottle of Essence-Stabilizing Pill for the Qi Cultivation Stage, casually handed it to Lvu Wanjun as a eting gift, seemingly having taken it from so ghost’s storage pouch.

Lvu Wanjun’s eyes glead, and she hurriedly took the jade bottle, overjoyed, she thanked Qin Ming profusely: "Thank you Elder Qin for the pill!"

"No need to be so polite." Qin Ming smiled gently.

Lvu Liang sighed and said: "Ah! I ca to ask Fellow Daoist Qin for help, how can I let you incur such expenses?"

"It’s just a small token, not worth ntioning, Fellow Daoist Lvu, you need not worry." Qin Ming said with a smile.

"Master, look what I have here?" Lvu Wanjun extended her fair hand in front of the two, then opened it.

A round object the size of an egg lay quietly in her palm.

"A Tier Two Early-Stage Demon Pill!" Lvu Liang couldn’t help but exclaim, and even Qin Ming beside him showed a look of surprise.

If this Demon Pill appeared in the hands of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, it would be quite normal.

But Lvu Wanjun was rely at the Qi Cultivation Perfection, which was quite extraordinary...

"Where did you get this?" Lvu Liang frowned and asked sternly.

Lvu Wanjun, seeing her master was serious, imdiately shrunk her neck and said, "Master, the demon hunting team I was in, accidentally encountered a severely injured and dying Scale Fire Salamander on the outskirts of the Beast Roar Mountain Range. After we worked together to slay it, there was an internal conflict within the team, and I seized the opportunity to sneak away with the Fire Salamander’s Demon Pill..."

"If it weren’t for the life-saving Magical Artifacts and talismans you gave , I might not have made it back."

Lvu Wanjun’s words secretly startled the two of them; this little girl certainly had quite the nerve.

"Fellow Daoist Lvu, your disciple is indeed quite fortunate... haha!" Qin Ming chuckled.

Lvu Liang then turned to Qin Ming and said: "With these two Demon Pills in hand, it equates to dual insurance, I entrust the refining to Fellow Daoist Qin!"

Qin Ming nodded.

"By the way, Wanjun, how could there be a dying Tier Two Great Demon on the outskirts of the Beast Roar Mountain Range?" Lvu Liang suddenly rembered sothing, asking with a trace of doubt.

Hearing this, Lvu Wanjun replied seriously: "Recently, there has indeed been so abnormality within the Beast Roar Mountain Range, with many Demon Beasts leaving their original territories, migrating outward..."

"Many demon hunting teams have had significant gains."

"But quite a few teams have encountered large numbers of Demon Beasts and have been missing since."

She recounted her recent experiences in the Beast Roar Mountain Range in detail, then looked at the two Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.

"The Demon Beasts of the Beast Roar Mountain Range are beginning to migrate en masse?"

Lvu Liang’s expression suddenly beca sowhat grave, "This situation has had precedents in the records of the Immortal City, one possibility is a revenge-seeking creature like that Double-Pupil Demon Ape, and the other is a new Tier Three Demon King erging deep within the mountains, driving other Demon Beasts to expand their territories."

"Regardless of which situation it is, I’m afraid... a new Beast Tide might be imminent." As soone who had seen many changes in Vast Sea Immortal City, Lvu Liang could easily deduce the potential cause based on the recent frequent abnormal behaviors of the Demon Beasts.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, if it’s the second situation, then this Beast Tide might be dozens of tis larger than the last one, not only impacting the Immortal City but also the Spirit Nest Islands, preparations must be made in advance!"

Throughout Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm’s history, the Beast Roar Mountain Range had witnessed Beast Tides that wreaked havoc on different regions.

The market and checkpoints established near the Beast Roar Mountain Range have served as barriers against the Demon Beasts.

And located at the crossroads of the four countries, ’Vast Sea Immortal City’ is of utmost importance, should a battle break out, the Immortal City would undoubtedly bear the brunt of the attack.

"However, as the premier Sacred Land for Loose Cultivators, for hundreds of years, Vast Sea Immortal City has withstood nurous Beast Tide assaults, numbering well into the hundreds."

"There has never been a case of it being breached before..."

Qin Ming furrowed his brows but relaxed a bit after hearing Lvu Liang’s words.

Having witnessed the massive Demon Ape army sweeping across Qianye Spirit Island, leaving devastation in its wake, Qin Ming knew indeed such an event shouldn’t be taken lightly if this Beast Tide was larger than the last.

’It seems... the Demon Ape Beast Tide was just an appetizer, and the larger ordeal might still be to co...’

Even for his Wangyue Island, reinforcing defenses was sothing to be considered.

"Alright, with that decided, I will now begin refining the Foundation Establishnt Pill for Fellow Daoist Lvu." Qin Ming sensed the urgency of the matter and felt he should return to Wangyue Island as soon as he completed his task.

Upon hearing this, Lvu Liang produced a smile uglier than crying and uncertainly asked: "Fellow Daoist Qin, perhaps... you should stay a few more days and study the Pill Formula thoroughly before proceeding with the refinent?"

Because it had been less than half an incense stick’s ti since he gave the Pill Formula to Qin Ming...

Qin Ming barely glanced at the Pill Formula, is this how casually Alchemy Masters operate?

Lvu Liang felt uneasy, having spent the majority of his savings just to gather the spiritual materials needed for the Foundation Establishnt Pill.

If both Tier Two Demon Pills ended in failure, he’d have nowhere to even cry...
