Chapter 295: Seeking a Place to Survive the Tribulation
A few days later, Qin Ming returned to Wangyue Island.

The first thing he did when he came back was to use the Great Five Elements Technique to bring down spiritual rain on the spiritual plants.

Then he came to the cave of the Black Water Crocodile.

Qin Ming felt the breath of the sleeping Black Water Crocodile, and it seemed to be on the verge of a breakthrough.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it actually took so long for the second brother to advance to the third level."

"Thinking back to when I was sleeping for more than half a year, I encountered a thunder calamity."

"I think this kid is a bit mysterious!"

The Sky-Eating Rat commented on the side.

Qin Ming couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He had invested a lot of resources in training the two spirit pets.

Even those second-level spiritual materials and third-level spiritual fruits that are rarely seen in the outside world are almost all eaten by them, and the golden elixirs of golden elixir stage cultivators are also fed to them.

If he still can't make a breakthrough, then he will suffer a huge loss.

"I think you haven't done enough work. You still have the energy to make sarcastic remarks here."

Qin Ming kicked the Sky-Devouring Rat out of the blue.

"Hey, I think the second and third brothers have excellent qualifications, so it's only a matter of time for them to break through to the third level! It's a done deal, and there's a lot of potential for them in the future! There's a lot of potential for them!"

It rubbed its butt with its hands, then gave a dry laugh and immediately changed its tone.

Qin Ming stroked his chin and thought for a moment. He had no intention of letting the Black Water Crocodile and Silver Wing break through on Wangyue Island.

Otherwise, it would be really horrifying for two third-level demon kings to break through here in succession.

Wouldn't this cause another stir in the entire Southern Wilderness cultivation world?
He is already famous enough now and doesn't want to be pushed to the forefront again.

If this continues, I'm afraid those big sects will have to sit still.

"The Black Water Crocodile and Silver Wing are also about to make a breakthrough."

"We need to find a place for them to survive the thunderstorm."

Qin Ming immediately remembered something and turned to ask Sky Devouring Rat, "Where in the Beast Roaring Mountains did you achieve your breakthrough?"

"Hehehe, I have a treasure-hunting bloodline, so finding a third-level spiritual vein is a piece of cake for me."

“I’m the only one who knows that place.”

The Sky-Eating Rat said this, and then he realized something, so he asked, "Could it be that the master intends to let the second and third brothers go to the Beast-Screaming Mountains to break through?"

"That's right." Qin Ming nodded without denying.

The Sky-Eating Rat's eyes gurgled, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Of course there is no problem with that."

"There happens to be a third-level spiritual vein in my lair that can help them break through."

While I was waiting, three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Ming was practicing in the cave when he suddenly heard the news about the Black Water Crocodile, which was about to break through to the third level.

"Has it finally come to this?"

“I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

Qin Ming slowly opened his dark eyes and said lightly.

He finished his training, stood up and walked outside, only to see that the Black Water Crocodile had been waiting outside for a long time, and the aura on his body had already condensed to the peak of the second level, close to the third level.

Now he is only one step away from breaking through to the third level of demon king.

"Great! It's worth my hard work."

Qin Ming immediately put the Black Water Crocodile into the spirit beast bag.

at this time.

The Silver-Winged Frost Bee also flew out from the hive. After swallowing the golden elixir, its aura also reached the brink of a breakthrough, and it also sent a message to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming's face lit up with joy and he took it with him immediately.

Subsequently.

His thoughts communicated with his natal spiritual plant, the Yin-Yang Mysterious Vine.

The next moment, the towering black tree instantly turned into a ball of black ink and wrapped around his arm.

Finish these.

Qin Ming then came to the spiritual field and used a refreshed [Ripening] item to ripen the dozen or so third-level Jade Emperor spiritual rice plants.

He planned to ripen this spiritual plant and obtain the spiritual seed to take away.

In an instant.

A dozen or so emerald green Jade Emperor rice plants, as tall as bamboo, are rising higher and higher, emitting a unique aroma of rice.

Qin Ming walked over and knocked on one of the jade bamboos, and immediately the sound of spiritual rice rolling came from inside.

Immediately, a smile appeared on his lips, "It seems that I have matured."

A wisp of blood-colored energy emerged in his hand and cut a hole in the emerald-colored bamboo pole.

Wow!
Spiritual energy overflowed, and a small pile of emerald-like spiritual rice rolled out from the opening. The Jade Emperor spiritual rice was twice as big as ordinary spiritual rice.

Crystal clear, just like grains of jade.

Qin Ming immediately took out a jade box and collected these precious third-level spiritual rice.

Next.

He followed the same method and opened the remaining dozen or so plants of spiritual rice, and harvested the Jade Emperor spiritual rice inside.

After Qin Ming harvested the Jade Emperor Spiritual Rice, he found that the yield of this spiritual rice was extremely limited. After harvesting all the dozens of spiritual plants, he only produced less than two kilograms of spiritual rice, which was barely enough for him to eat for one or two meals.
"That makes sense. After all, the more advanced something is, the rarer its quantity is."

However, after he stores these spiritual rice seeds, he will be able to grow enough Jade Emperor spiritual rice.

To meet the needs of his daily practice in the Jindan stage.

After doing all this, Qin Ming called Wu Jiang over.

"Fellow Daoist Wu, I am planning to travel recently. It may take a few years, or even more than ten years."

"I'll have to trouble you to take care of Spirit Island while I'm away."

"If there is any problem that cannot be solved, just go find Daoist Fellow Nalan Xi from Canghai Immortal City. I will greet her."

Wu Jiang was also stunned when he heard this, but he also understood that Island Master Qin's cultivation had reached the Golden Core Stage and he could go anywhere in the world.

You must go out and travel to find higher opportunities.

"Don't worry, island owner. I will take care of everything on the island."

"When you come back, Lingdao will only develop better."

"I feel relieved when you say that." Qin Ming nodded, then took out two more bottles of pills and handed them to him.

"Here are two bottles of Zeng Yuan Dan, which will help you improve your cultivation in the initial stage of foundation building."

"Although you are quite old, you should not stop here. If possible, you can try to break through to the next level."

Wu Jiang took the pill with trembling hands, "Thank you for the pill, Island Master. I will keep in mind the Island Master's instructions and strive to break through the middle stage of foundation building."

"Well, there's nothing else to do. Go and do your thing."

"Yes!"

...Qin Ming flew to the top of Ling Island and looked around Wangyue Island.

"Before I knew it, I had been practicing and living on this island for more than sixty years."

“Time flies”

Then, he turned into a green rainbow and flew out of the island.

More than half an hour later.

Qin Ming came to Canghai Fairy City.

When the guard at the door saw the arrival of the Jindan Zhenren, who was also Zhenren Wangyue, he excitedly opened the protective formation and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to Master Mochizuki!"

The monks coming in and out of the city gate also saw the legendary figure and couldn't help but show expressions of worship and awe.

Qin Ming nodded slightly in response, then entered Canghai Fairy City and headed straight for the main peak of Canghai.

"Friend Qin has come from afar without even informing me in advance." Nalan Xi flew out from the main peak and greeted him.

Qin Ming had a faint smile on his face, "Haha, Qin has something to ask of Daoist Nalan, I came in a hurry."

"Oh? Fellow Daoist Qin, please come in and talk." Nalan Xi was also quite surprised. She didn't expect that there would be a time when Qin Ming would ask her for help.

However, she was longing for such an opportunity. It was a sure win to make this double master owe her a favor.

"No need. Qin is going to travel. Although Wu Jiang will take care of Wangyue Island for me, there are some things that he cannot handle. I would like to ask Daoist Nalan to take care of them for me."

After Qin Ming finished speaking, he took out a jade bottle and handed it to the other party.

"Here is a Dust-Extinguishing Pill. This is the reward Qin entrusted to Daoist Nalan. Hehe."

Nalan Xi heard this, although she was very tempted by the Dust-Extinguishing Pill, she still said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, it's too polite for you to say that."

"It's just a small matter, I will definitely take care of it for you, as for such a big gift, there's no need."

Qin Ming still insisted: "I am going on a long journey and I don't know when I can return. Daoist Nalan, please don't refuse."

See him say that.

Nalan Xi hesitated for a moment before taking the jade bottle. She clasped her fists towards Qin Ming and said, "Thank you very much, Brother Qin."

"Speaking of which, if I wasn't so tied up in the affairs of the Immortal City and couldn't leave for a moment, I would also like to go out and travel like Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Even going to the Great Jin Dynasty to look for opportunities to form an infant."

“Sometimes when you are in a position like this, even if you have reached this level of cultivation, you still cannot control yourself!”

"Then I wish you, Brother Qin, a long and prosperous life on the path to immortality. I hope that when I see you again next time, your cultivation will have greatly improved."

Qin Ming smiled slightly, cupped his hands, and said to Nalan Xi: "Thank you very much for your kind words, Daoist Nalan."

Afterwards, he exchanged a few words with Nalan Xi, said goodbye and left Canghai Fairy City.

……

After Qin Ming left the Immortal City, he flew towards the Beast Singing Mountains.

"Sky-devouring Rat, are you sure you got the direction right?"

The voice of the Sky-Devouring Rat came from the Spirit Beast Bag, "Don't worry, Master, I can't be wrong."

"My lair is well hidden, hehe!"

The Shouming Mountains are boundless and it is not an exaggeration to call them one of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Next, Qin Ming entered the depths of the Beast-Screaming Mountains, following the instructions of the Sky-Devouring Rat.

Half a day later.

Qin Ming crossed a mountain stream filled with miasma and came to a valley full of spiritual energy.

"This is it!"

Qin Ming released the Sky-Devouring Rat. It ran in front and led Qin Ming into the valley.

The moment he stepped in, he could clearly feel the rich spiritual energy coming towards him.

"It really is a third-order lower-grade spiritual vein."

"It's also enough for Black Water Crocodile and Silver Wing to break through."

The Sky-Eating Rat was familiar with the route and led Qin Ming to a thousand-foot-high waterfall.

Pointing to the back of the waterfall, he said, "Master, that's where I used to practice."

"Well, not bad. I didn't expect you to be able to enjoy life so well. Water Curtain Cave?" Qin Ming nodded as he looked at the magnificent and strange scenery in the valley.

The Sky-Eating Rat said modestly, "Ah! They are just humble rooms, just humble rooms."

Afterwards, Qin Ming released the Black Water Crocodile.

The moment its huge body appeared, it felt the spiritual energy from the outside world.

The Black Water Crocodile looked back at Qin Ming and immediately signaled to prepare for a breakthrough.

Qin Ming nodded, took the Sky-Devouring Rat away from the valley, and quietly observed the Black Water Crocodile from a distance.

Two days later.

A vortex of black spiritual energy, in the shape of a funnel, surged and gathered wildly above the canyon, pouring into the Black Water Crocodile in the center of the valley.

A few days later.

The spiritual clouds in the sky expanded to a range of ten miles, almost covering the entire canyon.

boom!
Suddenly.

The spiritual energy in the entire valley was instantly drained away and poured into the body of the Black Water Crocodile.

A royal aura belonging to a third-level demon king emanated from it, causing the low-level demon beasts around it to tremble and freeze in place.

"Here comes the most crucial step!"

The Sky-Eating Rat was watching from a distance, secretly worrying about the Black Water Crocodile.

Rumble!
Along with the breathtaking sound of thunder, a dark cloud of disaster instantly twisted and formed over the valley.

An aura of destruction that could destroy the world was brewing and surging from the clouds.

The third level of thunder tribulation of monsters is the most difficult one to overcome, and the power of thunder tribulation is also extremely terrifying.

Less than one in ten monsters can survive this kind of heavenly punishment and transform into a monster king.

The Black Water Crocodile looked up at the sky, with a pair of vertical pupils emitting a firm belief!
Boom! Click!
A thick purple lightning pillar, flashing with countless arcs, crossed the distance between heaven and earth and instantly struck the Black Water Crocodile.

A layer of blue electric light also flashed on Xuanshui's scales and spread throughout his body.

It used its extremely hard armor to withstand the thunder tribulation.

Even so, the Black Water Crocodile's body was torn apart by the blast, and blood continued to seep out.

"No way? So fierce?"

Qin Ming, who was watching from a distance, also raised his eyebrows.

I didn't expect that the thunder tribulation when the monster beast broke through the demon king would be so terrifying, almost catching up to half the power of the divine punishment thunder tribulation I had experienced.

Boom!
Thunders from the sky continued to fall, and terrifying celestial phenomena descended over the Beast-Screaming Mountains.
