Longevity: Start Farming with Entries Chapter 192 - 181: Rescue and Obtaining Spiritual Materials

Moving as fast as the wind.

Qin Ming flickered and vanished from the spot.

The Cyan Nether Sword Qi swept across, slicing through the demon beasts opposite, instantly causing limbs and fragnts to scatter in all directions.

Lim Yuanqing, upon witnessing this from the Loose Alliance Dharma Ship, no longer remained idle. He took out a Spiritual Artifact Dharma Saber and transford into a blue streak of light, joining the battlefield.

A wave of Late-stage Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Pressure descended outside the Immortal City like a storm.

With Lim Yuanqing, a Great Cultivator of Late-stage Foundation Establishnt, joining, the crisis of the beast tide outside the Vast Sea Immortal City was imdiately resolved.

The Loose Alliance’s Dharma Ship also activated the Spiritual Energy Giant Cannon, bombarding the demon beast horde below relentlessly.

An hour later.

With the combined efforts of several people, all the leading Tier Two Great Demons were slaughtered.

The low-tier demon beasts outside the city, leaderless, scattered like birds and beasts.

Qin Ming, unperturbed, stored the corpses of the few Early-stage Tier Two demon beasts he personally slew into his storage pouch.

Lvu Liang, watching from the side, twitched but dared not comnt.

If it weren’t for Fellow Daoist Qin coming to the rescue, he feared he wouldn’t have survived today.

Lvu Liang, his face pale, took a pill and, after sweeping his gaze around, focused on his beloved disciple.

Seeing that she was unhard, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Many thanks to Fellow Daoist Qin and Alliance Leader Lim for your tily rescue! I, Lvu, will never forget such a great favor!" Lvu Liang said, bowing deeply to the two.

Qin Ming quickly stopped him, "Fellow Daoist Lvu, there’s no need for such formality."

"Slaying demons is our cultivators’ duty, one that we cannot shy away from!"

"Seeing Fellow Daoist Lvu in danger, it was only right to draw my sword and assist!"

While saying this, Qin Ming spoke righteously and powerfully!

Even he nearly believed himself....

"Fellow Daoist Qin is indeed high-minded, not only an Alchemy Master in Spirit Plant Alchemy Dao but also possessing unrivaled Sword Dao cultivation skills!"

"I, Lvu, truly admire him beyond words..."

"It was thanks to Fellow Daoist Lvu for depleting these demon beasts’ demonic power that I could easily slay them. It’s just a petty skill."

"Alright, let the cultivators below clean up the battlefield now, Fellow Daoist Qin, this is not the place to talk."

"Please move into my humble abode."

Lvu Liang gestured for an invitation, then ordered the opening of the Array.

...

Vast Sea Immortal City’s core area.

After entering the city, Lim Yuanqing hurried to find Master Vast Sea, while Lvu Liang needed to report back, so they parted ways with Qin Ming and headed towards Vast Sea Peak.

Qin Ming, on the other hand, was led by Lvu Wanjun to Lvu Liang’s private garden.

After serving Qin Ming Spirit Tea, she approached him and bowed gracefully, "Wanjun thanks Elder Qin for his rescue!"

"No need for formalities; since you’ve successfully established your Foundation, just call Fellow Daoist Qin." Qin Ming said, sipping the tea lightly.

However, Lvu Wanjun seed yet to recover from the previous battle, missing her usual lively spirit and appearing drained and ntally exhausted.

"Fellow Daoist Lvu, perhaps... you should restore your mana first. I’m fine staying here," Qin Ming said straightforwardly.

Lvu Wanjun didn’t insist; having just recently completed Foundation Establishnt, she feared regressing from the severe battle.

So after ordering so fruits and snacks, she greeted Qin Ming before going to her room for recovery and regulation.

Qin Ming sat in the hall drinking Spirit Tea, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the table, lost in thought.

Half an hour later.

Lvu Liang seed to have completed his reporting, hastily entering from outside.

"Ah! Fellow Daoist Qin! You wouldn’t believe it, today happened to be my duty day to guard the Immortal City walls."

"It was truly treacherous. Had it not been for you, Fellow Daoist Qin, both my disciple and I would likely be inside a demon beast’s belly by now." Lvu Liang poured a new pot of Spirit Tea for Qin Ming, filling his cup, speaking with lingering fear.

Qin Ming’s brow furrowed at his words, questioning his concerns, "Fellow Daoist Lvu, has the beast tide situation escalated to such a severe extent now?"

Even a Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator like Lvu Liang nearly lost his life; the dangers could only be imagined.

"Indeed, initially we thought the depths of the Beast Roar Mountain Range gave rise to only one Tier Three Demon King, forcing other beast groups to migrate outward."

"But the actual situation now is that the Beast Roar Mountain Range has, at once, birthed several extrely powerful Tier Three Demon Kings."

"Coupled with the over-breeding of demon beasts deep in the Beast Roar Mountain Range, this beast disaster can be said to be unprecedented in the history of the establishnt of Vast Sea Immortal City," said Lvu Liang, gravely.

"To be honest, Fellow Daoist Qin, in just these past few years, the Immortal City has faced several hundred waves of beast tide attacks."

"Moreover, there were three tis where three different Tier Three Demon Kings personally led the charge, even breaking through a weaker Array section at the western corner of the city under their assault."

"Fortunately, the City Lord intervened to repel that Tier Three Demon King, or else Fellow Daoist Qin, this might have been an entirely different situation."

"Just repairing the Tier Three Grand Array required countless resources and man-hours, taking half a year to fully restore it."

"...."

Hearing this, Qin Ming remained silent for a long ti.

He hadn’t expected the situation in Vast Sea Immortal City to be so dire, repeatedly facing assaults from Tier Three Great Demons.

He finally understood why the Immortal City couldn’t spare any forces to deal with the Tier Three Blood Curse Demon Vine.

Once Nalan Xi, a Golden Core Ancestor, is no longer overseeing, Vast Sea Immortal City could be overrun by a beast tide at any mont.

"By the way, a few years ago, the Fengg Clan, who brought your letter here, they are your...." Lvu Liang suddenly asked.

Qin Ming replied, "I must again thank Fellow Daoist Lvu for arranging everything for them, they are descendants of an old acquaintance of mine. If Fellow Daoist Lvu is available, help support them a bit, but no need to go overboard."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, what are you saying, such a trivial matter is nothing to ntion. I’m rely asking if they require additional attention."

"Since that’s the case, I’ll follow Fellow Daoist Qin’s suggestion." Lvu Liang said with a smile.

Qin Ming inquired about the current situation of the Immortal City from Lvu Liang, and then took his leave.

Exiting the core area, Qin Ming followed the main road and arrived at the Mirror Snow Pavilion in the Inner City.

The first-floor restaurant was sowhat desolate, with only a few cultivators dining, a stark contrast to the bustling scenes of the past.

The outbreak of the Beast Tide caused the prices of various resources to continuously rise, leading to a decline in the number of cultivators able to afford the Mirror Snow Pavilion, such a high-end establishnt.

Shopkeeper Liao was keeping accounts at the front desk with his head down. Noticing soone entering the shop, he imdiately put on a professional smile and said, "Welco, noble Daoist friend, please take a look at what you would like to... eat..."

He was halfway through his sentence when he saw it was Qin Ming and was instantly at a loss for words.

He went from astonishnt to confusion, and then from confusion to delight!

"Fellow Daoist Qin! What brings you here?!"

"Please do co in!"

"I’ll go and inform the Pavilion Master, you have no idea how much she’s been worrying over your matters, Fellow Daoist Qin."

Shopkeeper Liao’s exclamation drew the attention of the cultivators dining there, curious about the person who could concern the Pavilion Master of Mirror Snow Pavilion.

Seeing him, they recognized Fellow Daoist Qin and rose to greet Qin Ming.

"Oh! Master Qin is here!"

"Greetings, Elder Qin!"

"Hello, Fellow Daoist Qin!"

Qin Ming’s reputation among those loose cultivators was quite good, and their words towards him were full of admiration and respect.

He acknowledged with a slight nod and smile, following Shopkeeper Liao upstairs.

In the private room on the seventh floor.

Guu Qingzhao, Huangfu Qii, and Aunt Long ca forward to greet him.

"Fellow Daoist Qin! What a surprise, I didn’t expect you to co to Vast Sea Immortal City under such circumstances, hahaha!" Huangfu Qii still maintained his refined deanor, saying with a cheerful smile.

Aunt Long also smiled and said, "It’s been a long ti, Fellow Daoist Qin! When we evacuated Celestial River Market, the situation was extrely urgent, and we didn’t have ti to notify you, alas!"

Qin Ming observed her mana aura and noted she had broken through to the mid-stage Foundation Establishnt, seemingly due to the spirit fire wine he had given her.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, how did you get here? The Beast Tide outside is fraught with danger, was your journey smooth?" Guu Qingzhao, clad in plain clothes with joyous surprise in her beautiful eyes, asked Qin Ming.

"It went fairly smoothly! I ca with the Loose Alliance’s Dharma Ship, alongside Alliance Leader Lim." Qin Ming responded to everyone’s enthusiasm one by one.

The group then took their seats in the private room.

They began to engage in conversation.

Guu Qingzhao stood up first, handing Qin Ming a package, her voice clear as she said, "These are the rare spiritual materials you entrusted with collecting back then."

"A year ago, I managed to gather all the materials, but the Immortal City went into lockdown to guard against Beast Tide attacks, and now even we can’t leave Vast Sea Immortal City."

"I was fretting over how to get these to you, and unexpectedly, here you are, Fellow Daoist Qin."

Qin Ming accepted the package, containing the few spiritual materials needed for cultivating the Three-Red Soul Reviving Grass of the Tier Three Spirit Plant.

He stored the items in his storage pouch, expressing gratitude, "Haha, thank you for the trouble, Fellow Daoist Guu."

"This is a little token of my appreciation."

Qin Ming then took out two Rice Flower Spirit Fish and a jar of Spirit Fire Wine from his storage pouch, presenting them to Guu Qingzhao.

Guu Qingzhao accepted the items with a smile.

"By the way, I took advantage of the Beast Tide to gather a lot of demon beast materials and refined several batches of pills."

"I would like to entrust them to you, Fellow Daoist Guu, to sell."

With that, Qin Ming waved his hand over the table, and a dozen fine porcelain bottles appeared instantly.

The three across from him were stunned by this display.

Because as they glanced over, most of the spirit pills there were Tier Two Spiritual Pills.

Guu Qingzhao’s gaze lingered on the porcelain bottles for a mont, her hand delicately picking up one and opening its seal, releasing a unique fragrance distinct from other Tier Two Pills.

"What a thing!"

"Foundation Establishnt Pill!"

"And there are two!"

Huangfu Qii leaned in for a look and was equally astonished.

Two Foundation Establishnt Pills at once.

Guu Qingzhao was also sowhat taken aback, raising her eyes with so puzzled surprise to look at Qin Ming.

"Haha! I crafted these two using a Demon Pill."

"You should know about Steward Lvu Liang from the Immortal City, right?"

"Several years ago, his treasured disciple needed Foundation Establishnt Pills for a breakthrough, and he happened to acquire a Wind Attribute Demon Pill at the Tier Two Mid-Stage, and commissioned to refine it."

"At the ti, four pills were made, and Lvu Liang took two of them, leaving with these two."

"They’re not of much use to , might as well exchange them for Spirit Stones."

Guu Qingzhao had a look of realization, smiling as she said, "Oh~ so that’s what happened! This matter did indeed circulate in a small circle within the Immortal City at the ti."

"I didn’t realize it was Fellow Daoist Qin who had done the alchemy."

Qin Ming nodded. After all, these two Foundation Establishnt Pills were leftover from the commission by Lvu Liang, able to withstand scrutiny.

Even the major forces and sects couldn’t find any fault.

"By the way, if it’s possible, Fellow Daoist Guu, could you help exchange these preferably into High-Grade Spirit Stones?"
