Chapter 388: Evergreen Spirit Saliva, Luo Family of the Great Zhou
The Beast Roaring Mountains, shortly after Qin Ming left.

At the place where the battle with the demon cultivator had just broken out, the air began to fluctuate, like rippling water, and then began to tremble violently.

at this time.

Two stunning rainbow lights suddenly flew over from afar and instantly stopped in the sky nearby.

The escaping light dissipated, revealing two figures without any magical power, just like ordinary people.

However, the person who can stand in the air without emitting any spiritual pressure is obviously not an ordinary person.

One of the men was a towering burly man, he was the ancient mountain demon saint of the Giant Ape tribe, whom Qin Ming had met once when he attended a ceremony at the Fox Tribe Holy Land.

Next to him, in the void stood a demon cultivator wearing a black feather robe and a crown of black hair. Except for a horny pointed nose, his other features were almost the same as those of a human.

It seems that he is also a demon saint-level figure who has completely transformed.

"Brother Gushan, the battle damage here seems to have been caused by a great demon above the third stage."

"How come this Saint has never heard of such a demon cultivator in this area of ​​the Beast Crying Mountains?"

The Ancient Mountain Demon Saint did not directly answer the other party's words, but narrowed his eyes and sensed carefully with his demonic thoughts for a moment.

Then he couldn't help but frown.

He was a little puzzled and asked, "It's strange, how come I can sense a faint aura belonging to my own race?"

"Ah? Brother Gushan, you must have made a mistake, right?" The Black Feather Demon Cultivator asked in surprise, "Don't be ridiculous, is it possible that a new demon saint seed is about to be born among the nobles?"

The Ancient Mountain Demon Saint searched in vain and gave up sensing: "No, I just have a suspicion."

"Mahakala, what do you think about this?"

The person next to him was the fourth-order early stage transformed demon saint of the Wind-Splitting Eagle clan—the Demon Saint Mahakala.

Upon hearing this, Mahakala Demon Saint narrowed his small green eyes slightly and said nonchalantly:
"These little demons below are just making trouble, they are all insignificant."

"What I am most concerned about is the secret realm of the ancient Qingyuan Sect. I heard that there may be high-level opportunities there, or even treasures that can break through the fourth-level bottleneck. Isn't Brother Gushan tempted?"

"How do you think about my previous proposal?"

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Mountain Demon Saint was not moved at all.

"There is no need to mention this matter any further. This Saint advises you not to interfere in the affairs of the human race, otherwise it will easily bring disaster upon yourself."

Afterwards, he no longer paid attention to the other party's reaction. His figure blurred and disappeared on the spot.

Come quickly and go quickly.

The demon saint Mahakala’s emerald eyes flashed several times, and without staying for long, his figure faded and he left the place.

"Humph! That's really boring."

"Since all of you do not agree to join forces, I will go alone."

……

the other side.

After several days of flying, Qin Ming returned to the Five Elements Mountain Spiritual Field.

Just to be on the safe side, he took an extra detour.

After making sure there was no tail, he returned to Lingtian Station.

After Qin Ming returned to the spiritual field, he first took an inspection. Dozens of spiritual farmers were doing their daily farming, and Li Lan was also feeding the Jade Emperor spiritual rice. Everything was normal.

Old Jia went to take care of the business in Jingxue Pavilion.

Now the business of Jingxue Pavilion is getting better and better, and he is a little too busy to handle it.

Gu Qingzhao also dispatched a lot of manpower from the headquarters in Southern Wilderness.

The first thing Qin Ming did when he came back was to take out the Shennong hoe and clear the weeds from the ten acres of Tianluo grass he had planted. Then he used the Five Elements Spirit Rain Technique to water the grass.

The spiritual field is lush and green, and overall the growth is pretty good.

After feeding the spiritual field, he entered the small spiritual realm and looked through the storage bags of the two true disciples of the Blood Refining Demon Sect.

But the next scene.

Even the well-informed Qin Ming was stunned.

"My goodness! Isn't this too fat?"

"You won't know until you see it. It's really shocking."

"How many forces in the Great Zhou have these two demon cultivators plundered?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Sky-Devouring Rat, which was wiping the black steel fork nearby, moved its ears, put away the steel fork and came over immediately.

It glanced at the storage bag and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Oh my god, the master is rich! I didn't expect these two to be such fat sheep! Hehehehe!"

The two storage bags were filled with a wide array of high-level natural treasures and various spiritual objects, which were so numerous that they piled up into a small hill.

In addition to the two people's magical inheritance, there are also many spiritual materials looted.

There are more than a thousand top-grade spirit stones alone, tens of thousands of mid-grade spirit stones, and even more low-grade spirit stones, which are impossible to count.

The two life-saving magic treasures of the magic cultivator named Meng, the 'Blood Bat Magic Tower' and the 'Blood Spirit Diamond', are both third-grade top-grade magic weapons.

The innate magic weapon of the demon cultivator named Qiu is a third-grade top-grade magic bone banner.

The rest are several third-grade low-grade and medium-grade magic weapons.

Qin Ming doesn't think much of this kind of magic skills and magic weapons.

What interested him was that he could use some of the rare treasures looted from the Great Zhou.

Just as he was searching, something in the storage bag of the demon cultivator named Qiu caught the attention of the Sky-Devouring Rat nearby.

It was born with a treasure-hunting physique and had an extremely sensitive sense of smell for treasures. The Sky-Eating Rat pursed its nose hard and its eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey, what is this?"

The Sky-Eating Rat pointed at the green jade bottle that was pressed at the bottom of the ground and said.

Qin Ming stopped what he was doing when he heard that.

Then he took the green bottle in his hand. He saw that the appearance of the bottle was simple and elegant, and several ancient spiritual patterns were engraved on the bottle.

Just holding it in your hand, you feel it is extraordinary.

If its appearance had not been too plain and if the Sky-Devouring Rat had not given it a hint, Qin Ming would have missed it.

He was about to remove the cork, but found that there was an extremely strict seal on the green bottle.

If he had to break it open by force, Qin Ming could do it, but he was afraid that the contents inside would be damaged.

Ever since.

He turned around and handed the green bottle in his hand to the Sky-Devouring Rat.

"You come and break the restriction above."

The Sky-Devouring Rat was immediately delighted, took the green bottle from Qin Ming's hand, and began to crack it with black mysterious light coming out of its mouth.

Just half a quarter of an hour later.

A layer of dark light flickered on the green bottle, and then dissipated into the air like bubbles.

"Master, it's okay."

"hey-hey!"

The Sky-Eating Rat handed the jade bottle back to Qin Ming with a smile.

Qin Ming smiled slightly and nodded. With the ability of the Sky-Devouring Rat, he saved a lot of effort in breaking various forbidden formations.

He immediately opened the green bottle and looked inside.

Suddenly, a emerald green light burst out, and a clear and spiritual energy came from the bottle, which shocked people!
And at the mouth of the bottle, a colorful glow emerged, and the vision of the spiritual treasure of heaven and earth was revealed in an instant.

All I saw inside was a whole bottle of green spiritual liquid, which was emitting a layer of crystal clear light and constantly changing colors, which was quite magical.

"This thing."

"The essence of the fourth-level spiritual object of heaven and earth!"

Suddenly Qin Ming's eyes lit up!
"It's actually the evergreen spirit saliva!"

"It's still a full bottle."

"Hahahaha!"

Qin Ming was both surprised and delighted. He didn't expect that he could get the Evergreen Spirit Saliva, one of the five main ingredients for refining the Ningying Pill, just like that!
It's still about killing and robbing!

Otherwise, he didn't know how long it would take to find this thing.

"The four main materials, the Infant-bearing Fruit Tree, the Evergreen Spiritual Saliva, the Shape-changing Demonic Grass, and the Taiyi Bodhi, have been collected."

"Now we only need the last ingredient, the Five Elements Spiritual Ginseng."

“I didn’t expect it to progress so quickly.”

Qin Ming was also very happy, because it meant that he was getting closer and closer to the Nascent Soul stage.

He was in a good mood, reached out and touched the Sky-Devouring Rat's head, and asked, "What treasure do you want? Just pick it yourself."

"Thank you for the reward, Master. You are so generous! Hehehe!"

Upon hearing this, the Sky-Devouring Rat was overjoyed. It was rare for Qin Ming to be so generous as to allow him to challenge for the spoils at will.

After half a stick of incense.

The Sky-Eating Rat had its arms full of rare treasures, and walked happily towards the Black Water Crocodile and the Silver-Winged Frost Bee, showing off non-stop.

Qin Ming returned to his usual life of farming and refining pills.

However, when he was practicing these days, he had an indescribable feeling and was uneasy.

"Could it be that I missed something when I killed the demon cultivators of the Blood Refining Demon Sect that day?" But he thought about it carefully several times and confirmed that he had done it very cleanly. He stopped thinking about it and shook his head.

……

A few months later.

The Five Elements Mountain Market, which was once in turmoil, has returned to its former bustle and prosperity since the evil cultivators were wiped out by the Thunder of the Defense League.

Monks from all over the Dajin gathered here again and began to trade.

Old Jia from Jingxue Pavilion also organized a group of people to open a branch of the business in Wuxingshan Market.

The Jingxue Pavilion today is different from what it used to be, and it is considered one of the famous businesses in Dajin.

There are already more than ten branches in nearby large and small markets. As the reputation grows, the turnover is growing linearly every year.

This day.

Qin Ming had completed his daily practice and was leisurely sitting beside the spiritual field sipping tea.

Next to it was a table full of magical melons and fruits, and a pot of Xuepo magical tea.

It is like a hermit away from the hustle and bustle, enjoying the pastoral scenery in front of him leisurely.

at this time.

Hua Tianxiong contacted Qin Ming through the black talisman.

"Master, there is something extremely important that I need to report to you in person."

"Oh? Where are you?"

"I have been in the Wuxing Mountain Market all this time."

"Okay, I'll come over in two days."

Qin Ming slowly put down the teacup in his hand, looking slightly surprised.

"I didn't expect that Hua Tianxiong seemed to have obtained some incredible information."

Two days later.

Qin Ming arrived as promised and came to the Wuxing Mountain Market again.

Compared to before, there are now monks from the Weidao League patrolling and guarding the surrounding areas of the Wuxing Mountain Market to strengthen vigilance.

The level of safety has been raised to a higher level than before.

At the gate of the market town, the lights of various chariots and spirit beasts were dazzling, and below them there was a long line of monks waiting to have their identities verified before entering.

After Qin Ming landed, the guard in charge quickly made way to let him pass.

"Hey! It's Shopkeeper Lu from Jingxue Pavilion."

"Please come in!"

Qin Ming was very familiar with Han Yuan and others from the Wandao Merchant Alliance. As time went by, the cultivators under the Five Elements Mountain Market naturally recognized him.

Afterwards, Qin Ming followed the address given by Hua Tianxiong and followed the main road to the eastern district of Fangshi. After turning around and passing through several alleys, he arrived at the door of a small courtyard.

He immediately sent a communication talisman to Hua Tianxiong.

After a while.

The gate opened, and Hua Tianxiong, with his big belly sticking out, said flatteringly, "Master, you are here."

"Well, just call me Shopkeeper Lu outside." Qin Ming said lightly.

"Hey! Okay, Shopkeeper Lu."

Nowadays, the influence of Jingxue Pavilion has greatly increased. As the owner of a business, it is normal for him to have business dealings with Qianji Business.

After Qin Ming followed Hua Tianxiong into the courtyard, he discovered that there was something mysterious going on here.

The entire yard was set up with a high-level isolation ban, which could even block the spiritual detection of a Jindan-stage immortal.

There is also a third-grade superior formation guarding the yard.

In terms of privacy and security, it can be said that it has reached the extreme.

It seems that Hua Tianxiong has invested a lot of money and effort.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?" Qin Ming sat on the rattan chair and asked.

Hua Tianxiong made a pot of the best spiritual tea for Qin Ming, then sat opposite him and explained the reason.

"Hey! Master, big business is coming!"

"It's like this. A few days ago, several of the Duyuan ships of Qianji Trading Company under me were withdrawn from the territory of Dazhou to Dajin to avoid the war."

"In addition to the people from our company, there are also many monks who fled from the Great Zhou on board this Dharma ship."

"There are quite a few rich kids from the Great Zhou."

"One of them is an elder of the Luo family of Da Zhou, named Luo Xi."

"This person contacted me secretly and said that he came to Dajin to ask for medicine."

"His precious son, who had a top-grade spiritual root talent, was severely injured by the demon cultivators during the chaos of the demon invasion, and his foundation was damaged."

"I don't know where this old guy got the news that I have a special relationship with Grandmaster Su, so he asked me to ask Grandmaster Su for mercy."

"I want to ask him to help me refine a miraculous medicine called 'Nine Yang Soul-Renewing Pill'."

"After the matter is completed, the Luo family can pay a very considerable reward. As for the conditions, you can propose whatever you want."

"In addition, subsequent trade cooperation can also be discussed."

"I thought the master might need something, so I discussed it with you."

"Then Elder Luo Xi has also made an appointment with me to meet here. I estimate that he will arrive in the next two days."

"Master, do you want to meet him? Then you can make a decision."

After saying this, Hua Tianxiong rubbed his fat hands and looked at Qin Ming with a smile.

Because he knew that Su Yuqing, a great master of alchemy, was willing to pay attention to him only out of Qin Ming's favor.

"Da Zhou Luo family?"

"Have you checked their background?"

Not long ago, Qin Ming killed two Blood Refining Demon Sect monks who had sneaked in in disguise.

Therefore, when he heard that it was a cultivator from the Great Zhou Immortal Realm, he subconsciously maintained a cautious attitude.

"I have already sent someone to investigate. There is no major problem with the other party's background."

"I'm just a little unsure, that's why I wanted to ask you to check it." Hua Tianxiong said as he poured tea for Qin Ming.

Qin Ming nodded when he heard this, agreeing to the matter.

Hua Tianxiong asked for permission before doing anything, which was quite smart.

"The Nine Suns Soul-Renewing Pill is a third-grade, superior-quality elixir. Only a third-grade, superior-quality alchemy grandmaster can possibly refine it."

"And this pill is specifically used to treat injuries to the soul. Could it be that the young master of the Luo family has suffered a trauma to his soul?"

Qin Ming was a third-rank alchemy grandmaster, and he was also familiar with the "Source Dao Alchemy Sutra" taught by Su Yuqing, so he was naturally not unfamiliar with this kind of elixir.

Hence this question.

"Well, I have met Master Luo once, but he looked quite weak. It is true that he suffered some injuries to his soul, but I don't know the exact extent." Hua Tianxiong smiled awkwardly.

Qin Ming thought about it for a while, then said, "Well, let's see when the time comes."

Afterwards, Qin Ming and Hua Tianxiong started talking about other things.

After one day.

Hua Tianxiong came over with a smile on his face: "Master, Elder Luo Xi just sent me a message."

"They have already arrived at the market town with the young master of the Luo family. I estimate they will be here soon."

"Yeah." Qin Ming took a sip of tea, looked calm and composed, and nodded slightly.

Another half stick of incense passed.

Hua Tianxiong received the communication talisman and went out to open the door himself, thinking that the person had arrived.

A group of people were welcomed into the yard by Hua Tianxiong.

The leader was a blond old man wearing a golden jade robe. He had bright eyes and looked energetic. He had reached the early stage of Golden Elixir cultivation.

I think this person must be Elder Luo Xi of the Luo family of Da Zhou.

Behind him followed a sickly young man in a jade robe, whose cultivation was at the initial stage of foundation building. On his paper-white face, one could vaguely see that he was extremely handsome.

"Elder Luo Xi!"

"Master Luo Chen!"

"President Hua, you're too polite."

The sickly young man named Luo Chen was always followed by two beautiful maids, supporting him on his left and right.

After several people entered the yard, they first greeted Hua Tianxiong with a very enthusiastic attitude.

But when Elder Luo Xi stepped into the main hall, he saw other strangers inside.

The smile on his face disappeared completely in an instant.

Luo Xi turned his head with an ugly expression and asked Hua Tianxiong in a questioning tone:
"Friend Hua, what's going on?"

"Why are there outsiders here?"

"I have warned you many times, and you promised me that this matter must be kept secret."
