Longevity: Start by refreshing your entries through farming.

Chapter 268 Yuwen Hong's Test
Qin Ming thought about it.

He collected the three spirit pets, then opened the formation and welcomed Yuwen Hong into the island.

As soon as Yuwen Hong entered Wangyue Island, he was deeply shocked by the scene before him. Is this still the barren island as rumored?
Qin Ming flew out of the cave and stopped in front of Yuwen Hong. He bowed and said to him, "Welcome, Daoist Fellow Yuwen. Please come in."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, although we have never met, decades have passed. You are still as young as ever!"

Yuwen Hong looked at the 'spiritual farmer' who was once his disciple.

Just like an evergreen ancient tree, he has a tranquil and peaceful temperament, and his whole body is as calm as water.

Even he, the Jindan ancestor, felt a little unpredictable at first glance.

Although Qin Ming appeared to be only at the middle stage of foundation building, Yuwen Hong's experienced intuition told him that he was not simple.

"Fellow Daoist Yuwen, thank you for your praise. I just took a rejuvenation pill." Qin Ming smiled faintly and welcomed Yuwen Hong into the reception pavilion on the island.

After sitting down.

Yuwen Hong stretched out his hand, and an exquisite jade box appeared in his hand. He then handed it to Qin Ming and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Qin Daoyou for breaking through to the level of the third-level alchemy master. This is a small gift from our sect. I hope you will accept it."

Qin Ming did not refuse his kindness. He took the jade box and opened it.

Inside were more than a dozen spiritual seeds emitting emerald light.

"The third-level Jade Emperor Spiritual Rice Spiritual Seed!!"

Even with Qin Ming's current state of mind, a ripple could not help but form.

Yu Wenhong made such a big move right from the start, it seems the purpose of his visit is not simple.

"Fellow Daoist Yuwen, this."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, don't worry too much, just accept it."

"The seeds of this Jade Emperor Rice have been in our sect's treasury for hundreds of years, and no one has been able to grow them."

"It will just gather dust if left alone, so it is better to give it to Fellow Daoist Qin as a gift."

Qin Ming nodded after hearing this and put the jade box away.

Subsequently.

He brewed a pot of Xuepo Spirit Tea for Yuwen Hong, handed the teacup to him and said, "This is the Xuepo Tea that Qin planted on the island. Fellow Daoist Yuwen, please try it."

Yuwen Hong gently picked up the teacup and looked at the snow-white tea soup in the cup, which was surrounded by a misty air and exuded spiritual energy.

He knew at a glance that this must be a high-level spiritual tea.

At least it can't be seen anywhere else except on Qin Ming's Wangyue Island.

Yuwen Hong smelled the tea, then took a sip. Immediately, he felt a strange warm current flowing through his body, which even had a certain effect on him, a Jindan stage cultivator.

His whole mind became fresh and peaceful, just like the green grass nourished by the spring rain.

All kinds of distracting thoughts were swept away at this moment!

"Good tea! I didn't expect that this Xuepo Tea can actually reduce the growth of inner demons and cleanse the soul!" Yu Wenhong's eyes suddenly lit up and he praised generously.

Simultaneously.

Yuwen Hong was also filled with emotion, as he could not have imagined that Qin Ming, a spiritual farmer who was once a disciple of Lingyu, could have reached where he is today.

As a third-rank alchemy master, his status and position are equal to those of a golden elixir cultivator. Even when he meets Qin Ming, he needs to show some respect.

After all, Qin Ming is now a popular figure in the Wei State, and there is only one such master.

It’s a pity that Lingyumen was unable to keep him back then!

Otherwise, he would be the master of Lingyu Sect.

Now that the matter is done, there is no point in saying anything. Fortunately, Lingyu Sect never offended Qin Ming afterwards.

The relationship between the two sides is not as bad as imagined.

"Haha, if Brother Yuwen likes it, Qin can give you a box." Qin Ming said as he refilled his cup of spiritual tea.

He did not have much aversion to Yuwen Hong. After all, after he came out of Lingyu Sect, they fulfilled the agreement, gave him freedom, and never bothered him again.

Afterwards, Yuwen Hong and Qin Ming gradually became familiar with each other and started talking.

As the two chatted, they talked about the recent situation in the world of immortal cultivation.

From the conversation, Qin Ming could feel that Yuwen Hong was a man of great wisdom and was not comparable to that of ordinary cultivators.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for the Lingyu Sect to grow and develop to the point where it could compete with the Leiyuan Sect in just a few decades.

“Alas! Speaking of which, if I hadn’t broken through to the Golden Core stage, Lingyu Sect would have long ceased to exist under the siege of the seven major forces.”

"But once I choose to break through, I will inevitably embark on the path of confrontation with Lei Yuanzong."

"I believe that after so many years, Fellow Daoist Qin should have realized that the cultivation resources of Wei State do not allow two Jindan sects to exist at the same time."

"Most of the time, I was caught in the tide of the overall situation and was forced to move forward against my will."

"It's nature that plays tricks on people!"

After listening to him, Qin Ming couldn't help but curl his lips.

Even though Yuwen Hong talked a lot, in the end it was still because he was too ambitious and wanted to go to the next level.

After all, it's just one's own desires that are causing trouble.

However, Qin Ming vaguely sensed a message from Yuwen Hong's tone.

Although the world of immortal cultivation in the Southern Wilderness has been affected by the ghost disaster in Liang State in the past few years, and the four countries appear calm on the surface, there have actually been undercurrents.

There will probably be changes between Yuwen Hong and Wei Wuya, and between Lingyu Sect and Lei Yuanzong in the near future, and one of them is destined to come to an end.

However, these disputes have nothing to do with Qin Ming.

Next.

Yu Wenhong's words also completely confirmed Qin Ming's thoughts.

"The winners will be the kings and the losers will be the bandits. There will be a final outcome."

"I would like to ask Brother Daoist Qin, I have heard that Wei Wuya has ever been to your place before?"

"Did he buy the Dust-Extinguishing Pill from you?"

Qin Ming put down the teacup in his hand and raised his eyebrows when he heard that.

"Fellow Daoist Wei did come to me to ask for pills, but in the past two years, because it was my first attempt, Qin was only able to refine one Dust-Extinguishing Pill."

"It was exchanged by True Man Canghai right after it came out of the oven. There were no extra Dust-Mieting Pills to trade with Fellow Daoist Wei." Qin Ming explained in a calm tone, without any sign of anything unusual.

Of course he couldn't tell the truth to Yu Wenhong, otherwise he would come to him for the elixir again.

Wei Wuya exchanged for the Dust-Destroying Pill, and his cultivation strength will definitely increase.

If Qin Ming were to tell the truth.

Isn't this equivalent to helping Lei Yuanzong in disguise? Yuwen Hong will definitely feel uncomfortable.

Rather than being a nobody, just don't tell the truth.

Anyway, even if Yuwen Hong went to ask Nalan Xi for confirmation, given the relationship between Qin Ming and Nalan Xi, she would understand it immediately and would not reveal too much to him.

When Yuwen Hong heard Qin Ming say this, although he was a little unconvinced, he could do nothing about it.

At the end of their conversation, Yuwen Hong suddenly said to Qin Ming seriously, "I wonder if Brother Qin can return to Lingyu Sect?"

"From now on, your status in the sect will be equal to mine, and you will enjoy the treatment and worship of a supreme elder."

"And the high-level resources you lack will be supplied first, and our disciples will help you collect them."

"You don't need to do any hard work yourself."

"You just need to concentrate on studying the Dao of Alchemy and spiritual plants."

"After all, Fellow Daoist Qin and our sect have a connection, so it can be considered as fate."

"This is also my sincere invitation. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Qin?"

Qin Ming was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect that Yuwen Hong would invite him to return to Lingyu Sect again.

He laughed secretly in his heart. Even a good horse never turns back to the old stable, let alone himself.

Besides, if he doesn’t plant the spiritual plants himself, how can he refresh the entry?

The entry is my greatest honor!
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Yuwen Daoyou, but I have no intention of joining any faction anymore."

"I just want to be a leisurely island owner here."

"I believe that Fellow Daoist Yuwen also knows that Qin chose to leave Lingyu Sect because he did not want to be involved in these disputes."

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."

When Yuwen Hong heard this, although he had expected Qin Ming to refuse, he couldn't help but flash a trace of regret on his face.

If Qin Ming could be brought back to Lingyu Sect, Lingyu Sect would definitely rise completely within a hundred years!
From the birth of Grandmaster Gongsun Yang from Xuanxi Valley in Liang State, we can get a glimpse of something.

In just a hundred years, two Jindan ancestors were born.

Fortunately, Qin Ming, a master who is capable of deciding the success or failure of a sect, only wants to be an idle monk.

If he does not join any force, it will not affect the situation in Wei State, which makes him feel more at ease.

The reason why Yu Wenhong came here today at the cost of his dignity was also because of his fear of Qin Ming, the master of alchemy.

He was afraid that Qin Ming would completely side with Lei Yuanzong, which would be extremely bad for Lingyu Sect.

But after communicating with Qin Ming today, Yuwen Hong dispelled many of his doubts and concerns.

Qin Ming doesn't like to get involved in disputes. He only wants to study his spiritual plants and alchemy skills, and has no interest in fame and fortune.

Just like just now, Yuwen Hong used the position of the supreme elder of Lingyu Sect to test Qin Ming.

He refused without even blinking, and it didn't seem like he was pretending at all.

Next.

The two of them talked for another half a day, and Yuwen Hong was ready to get up and say goodbye and leave.

"In that case, I won't bother you any more."

"I wish Brother Qin longevity in his immortal path."

Qin Ming also stood up and returned the greeting, "Qin also wishes Daoist Yuwen a smooth journey to immortality."

Subsequently.

Qin Ming sent Yuwen Hong out of Wangyue Island.

Before leaving, Yuwen Hong spent a sum of spirit stones from Qin Ming and bought three Five Elements Yuanqi Spirit Peaches.

Qin Ming also gave the other party a box of Xuepo Ling Tea in return.

After all, longevity is more attractive to higher-level cultivators.

Even Yu Wenhong is no exception as he still has plenty of life left.

"Whoo~"

After seeing off the great god Yuwen Hong, Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

……

in the following days.

There were still many forces coming to visit, but Qin Ming asked Wu Jiang to send them off unless they were particularly important.

Inside the cave.

Qin Ming took out the spiritual seed of Jade Emperor Rice, his eyes flickering.

As a third-grade low-grade spiritual rice, Jade Emperor Rice can improve the cultivation of Jindan-stage cultivators.

However, as a third-level spiritual practice resource, the yield of this rice is extremely small. I didn’t expect that there were still more than a dozen spiritual seeds left in the treasure house of Lingyu Sect.

Qin Ming took one of the emerald-like spirit seeds in his hand and observed it for a while.

"Well, Lingyumen's preservation method is pretty good. The vitality and spiritual energy in the spirit seeds are still there."

Qin Ming put away the Jade Emperor Rice Spirit Seed, and then took out something from his storage bag.

It was the piece of sun gold that was exchanged from Canghai Zhenren Nalan Xi.

Qin Ming communicated with Jin Lingzi through his mind:

"Now that we have the Sun Gold, how do we refine the Wooden Emperor Nail?"

"I will teach you the complete treasure refining technique. You just need to follow the above method and add the sun's refined gold."

The voice of the weapon spirit sounded faintly.
