Chapter 428: Master Lihuo, a visitor from the East China Sea [Thanks to fellow Daoist Chunnuan Shiyizhou for the 6666 coin reward]

Half a year later.

The news of Qin Ming's achievement of Yuanying Zhenjun spread further and further, and had even reached several surrounding immortal cultivation circles.

Over time.

Not only is Wangyue Island bustling with activity, but the entire Lingqi Islands is filled with a festive atmosphere for a long time.

Qin Ming's Nascent Soul Ceremony was about to begin. The cultivators from the Four Nations Alliance and the people on Moon-Watching Island were all busy making various arrangements.

Invitations were sent out to all parties, the venue was decorated, and the banquet was prepared. Everything was going on in full swing.

On Moon-Watching Island.

A yellow light streaked across the sky and landed on Ling Island, revealing Wu Jiang with a head full of silver hair.

He sternly instructed the monks who were busy decorating the square below: "Be careful, every blade of grass and every tree on this spiritual island is very precious, please don't let me damage them!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Chief Wu."

Wu Jiang nodded and left with satisfaction.

The busy monks outside looked at Wu Jiang's departing figure, and everyone couldn't help but reveal an envious look on their faces.

After all, how many people would be eager to get a job under Yuanying Zhenjun?

However, just when they were busy.

The entire space nearby suddenly began to tremble, as if something horrible was about to happen.

As a result, the surrounding spiritual energy also became chaotic.

Then, ripples suddenly appeared in the sky, and the next moment, an extremely huge spiritual pressure suddenly descended.

The cultivators of the Four-Nation Alliance and the people of the Wu family, including Wu Jiang, all showed panic in the face of this astonishing spiritual pressure.

There were even monks with lower cultivation levels who couldn't stand steadily and fell directly to the ground.

As a red light dissipated, a cultivator appeared above their heads without them noticing.

This was a blond old man wearing a python robe. He was a little thin, but the magical power and spiritual pressure he exuded made everyone below moved and changed color.

"Zhenjun Nascent Soul!"

next moment.

Whoosh!
On the main peak of Wangyue Island, a green rainbow flashed and then landed steadily in front of the red-haired old man, revealing Qin Ming's figure.

His divine consciousness was as powerful as that of a late Nascent Soul. He had actually discovered the traces of the red-haired old man a long time ago, but he just didn't go out to greet him on purpose.
The moment Qin Ming appeared, an even more terrifying spiritual pressure descended, and in an instant, it overwhelmed the spiritual pressure released by the other party.

The red-haired old man's expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

He immediately restrained the spiritual pressure on his body.

"Haha! I guess you are the newly promoted 'True Lord Wangyue' from the Southern Wasteland?"

"Congratulations to you on your Yuanying Great Success. I, Ding Pu, the Supreme Master of Lihuo, have come here specially to watch the ceremony and congratulate you."

"Fellow Daoist Qin achieved the Nascent Soul stage in just over 200 years, which can be regarded as breaking the record of the youngest Nascent Soul cultivator in Dajin and Nanhuang in the past thousand years."

"The path to immortality is limitless! This is truly cause for celebration."

It was also the first time that Master Li Huo saw the newly promoted Nascent Soul that was rumored. He immediately put on a smile and bowed to him with a forced smile.

The first impression Qin Ming gave him was that of a lush and tall evergreen ancient tree, with a temperament as calm as water and very youthful.

But after a brief trial just now, I already have a rough estimate in my mind.

This boy's cultivation strength is probably just as his disciples reported, and he is not an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even in the Great Jin Dynasty, there hasn't been a cultivator who can survive the Earthly Tribulation for a long time.

His magical powers are definitely not ordinary ones.

Therefore, the Lihuo Palace did not dare to be arrogant. After meeting Qin Ming, they did not rely on the power of the Lihuo Palace to put on an arrogant attitude.

Having reached this stage of practice, their ability to keep a low profile has reached an extremely high level.

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Ding from Lihuo Palace. Please come to the island for a chat." Qin Ming looked calm and made a gesture of invitation.

Immediately, Qin Ming led Master Lihuo to the Qingmu Pavilion on the main peak.

After a while.

Master Lihuo saw the fourth-level spiritual veins on the island, as well as a large number of high-level spiritual plants, which were not inferior to their sect's spiritual plant garden.

There are even some rare spiritual plants that even the Lihuo Palace has never seen.
He was secretly impressed by what he saw.

"I heard that Fellow Daoist Qin was a spiritual plant master. I didn't expect that his attainments in this field are so high. I'm afraid he is not far from the fourth level, right?"

"Haha! These are just some little things that Qin grew in his spare time. They cannot compare to your clan's collection." Qin Ming replied casually.

"Haha! Fellow Daoist Qin is really humble and low-key."

"You have the same style as me, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage without making any noise or notice."

After Master Li Huo entered the hall, he stretched out his hand and a long wooden box appeared in his hand.

Then he smiled and walked forward to pay Qin Ming: "Fellow Daoist Qin, please forgive me for my previous offense. If I knew that there was a great cultivator like you in charge of the Southern Wilderness, I would not come here to recruit soldiers."

"My disciples are ignorant. If they offend Fellow Daoist Qin, please don't take it personally."

"Now that you are in charge of the Southern Wilds, it will no longer be a vassal relationship with the Great Jin. The Lihuo Palace will no longer interfere in the affairs of the Southern Wilds' immortal cultivation world. Please rest assured about this."

"Alas! The situation on the front line is tense and the demons are rampant. I am forced to do so."

"This set of fourth-order lower-grade Tiangang Red Sun Formation can be regarded as a gift to show my appreciation."

As an old monster who has lived for thousands of years, Master Lihuo's narration is logical and vivid. If it were someone else, they would really believe it.

Qin Ming took the wooden box expressionlessly and put it away without even looking at it.

"Then I, Qin, appreciate your kindness."

When Master Li Huo arrived at Wangyue Island, he had already seen that there was only one third-order, medium-quality island protection formation here.

Originally, he had planned to spend a lot of money this time, and was ready to give a bottle of elixir for the Nascent Soul stage with great reluctance.

Firstly, it can be regarded as an apology, and secondly, it can be regarded as a gift.

But when he saw the environment here clearly, he temporarily changed his mind. Although the value of this fourth-level protective array is not as great as the elixir, it is also worth having.

More importantly, it saves a lot of money.

After all, the fourth-grade elixir for the Nascent Soul stage is extremely rare and hard to find.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Ding, with your sect, the Wei Dao League, and the many powerful sects of the Great Zhou, can't this war be quelled?" Qin Ming took this opportunity to inquire silently.

He invited the other party to sit down and poured him a cup of Xuepo Spirit Tea. Upon hearing this, Master Li Huo sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, you don't know something!"

"With your current cultivation and vision, you should have heard of the matter of 'descending to the realm', right?"

Qin Ming took a sip of tea and nodded slightly without hiding anything.

Master Lihuo continued, "If it were only the Yin Demon Sect in Dali and the Shendao Mountain in Southern Xinjiang, our Weidao League would have been able to keep them out long ago."

"But the point is, we never expected that some unexpected abnormal changes would occur during the descent of the Blood World. The Great Heavenly Demon Tribulation that was supposed to end in ten years has expired, but not only has it not ended and returned to the upper realm, it has become even more severe."

Hearing this, Qin Ming was also surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Is there a problem with the descent to the realm?"

After all, it is related to his own life. Although Qin Ming has broken through the Nascent Soul stage, he is still carrying the blood ring curses of several disciples of the Blood Refining Demon Sect.

Have to be careful.

"That's right. No one knew what went wrong with the interface's tidal intersection this time. It wasn't until several years ago that I finally sent someone to find out the reason behind it."

"There are several void cracks in Dali between the Blood World and the Human World. There are abnormal fluctuations, which directly connect to a void channel."

"There is a steady stream of demon cultivators from the Blood Realm pouring into the human world through this passage."

"It is precisely because of the support from the Blood Refining Demon Sect that the Great Devil Sect has been able to contend with our Defenders Alliance until now."

Qin Ming did not expect that the situation had changed so much just a few years after he left Dajin.

But at the same time, he also sneered at Master Lihuo, thinking that this old guy was also very cunning.

Up to now, no one had mentioned anything about the secret realm of Qingyuan Sect to him.

But since the other party didn't want to say it, Qin Ming had no intention of asking more. After all, he was not really interested in things like secret realms.

Immediately, he asked the question that he was concerned about at the moment.

"Then according to what Fellow Daoist Lihuo said, if a void passage appeared between the two worlds, would the high-level cultivators of the Blood Refining Demon Sect descend directly to the human world?"

Master Li Huo seemed to have expected him to ask this question. "Well, judging from the current situation, although the intersection of interfaces has greatly increased the number of demon cultivators passing through, it is only limited to demon cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage."

"But if the void channel changes and expands in the future, what will happen then is beyond our ability to predict."

“It is not impossible for a Nascent Soul Demon Lord or a Spiritualization Demon Lord to descend to the mortal world. By then, the human world will inevitably be devastated, and even Nascent Soul cultivators like us won’t be able to completely protect ourselves.”

"Fortunately, the overall strength of the Blood World and the Human World is comparable, only slightly stronger."

"If other great realms were to intersect and invade, such as the real demon realm, the consequences would be truly disastrous. I'm afraid the human world would be bloodbathed in an instant."

"Therefore, Fellow Daoist Qin, you must also understand our sect's difficulties! Right now, we rely on the Dajin Weidao League to hold the line in the front, so that there is no pressure from the invasion of the demon sect in the Southern Wilderness."

"Once the Great Jin falls, it is only a matter of time before the Demon Sect invades the Southern Wilderness."

When Master Lihuo heard that Qin Ming was quite interested in this, he took the opportunity to explain and played the emotional card, saying that their Lihuo Palace was selfless and would do anything to seize resources.

Qin Ming, holding a teacup, looked nonchalant, and said calmly, "Those demons who want to invade the Southern Wilds should think twice before doing so. I just want to learn the methods of the Demon Lord."

hiss~
I didn't expect that even after I said this, Qin Ming still reacted with this attitude, as if he was extremely confident in his own strength.

Master Li Huo looked extremely shocked.

Are all young people like this now? You know, he has just been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.

"Haha! Fellow Daoist Qin is extremely courageous and brave. I admire him!" Master Li Huo could only respond with a dry laugh.

Followed by.

Qin Ming sent a message to the Sky-Devouring Rat, asking it to bring Jing Qing from the Lihuo Palace up.

The moment Master Li Huo saw the Sky-Devouring Rat, he was also suddenly shocked. The third-order perfect half-transformed demon king in front of him was already equivalent to half a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"No wonder Master Wangyue was so calm when he heard about the invasion of the demons. It turns out that not only has his spiritual plant attainments reached the pinnacle, but his beast taming skills are also very subtle."

The Sky-Eating Rat led Jing Qing into the main hall. At this moment, the rat relied on the power of its master and did not take Master Lihuo, the Nascent Soul True Lord, seriously at all.

He pushed Jing Qing over and yelled in a scoundrelly tone, "Be a little more low-key next time, and don't fall into my hands again. I have to serve you food and drink for the past six months, which really affects my time for fishing clams, humph!"

"You're lucky, kid."

Immediately he raised the black steel fork, patted his butt and walked out of the hall.
When Master Li Huo saw this scene, his eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

Jing Qing's breath was weak. When he saw his ancestor coming to lead the people, he recalled everything he had experienced in the past six months, and how he had been tortured by the rat demon. All of a sudden, all kinds of inexplicable emotions surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but choke up and said:
"Disciple Jingqing, I pay my respects to the Grand Elder!"

When Master Li Huo saw that his disciple's Nascent Soul seed was in such a state, he immediately reached out to check it out. Fortunately, only some meridians were damaged and the foundation was not harmed, which would not affect future practice.

As long as you go back and recuperate for more than ten years, you will be able to recover.

His expression improved a little, "Haha! Sorry for causing trouble to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"It's okay." Qin Ming said lightly.

At this moment, Qin Ming's expression changed slightly, and he discovered that there was another breath of Yuanying Zhenjun, approaching the Lingqi Islands.

So he turned to Master Lihuo and asked:

"Daoist Lihuo, have you invited other Daoists to come with you when you come to Wangyue Island this time?"

Master Lihuo was stunned for a moment, "No? Why did Brother Qin say that?"

"In that case, I'm afraid I have to go out to greet them. A fellow Yuanying Daoist has already arrived outside." Qin Ming said lightly.

Immediately, Master Lihuo looked suspicious and secretly sent out his divine sense to investigate, but he found nothing.
Why did Qin Ming say this?
Li Huo Shang Ren came to his senses and was suddenly shocked. Could it be...
In less than half an incense stick of time, a blue light landed on Moon Watching Island at an extremely fast speed, emitting a Nascent Soul-level magical aura.
Master Li Huo was stunned for a moment. What did this mean?
This shows that Qin Ming’s spiritual power is far stronger than his own.

The other party easily detected the distance that I couldn't even detect.

He was also shocked, and flew out with Qin Ming, ready to meet the fellow Nascent Soul cultivators who had arrived.

When Qin Ming and the other person arrived above Moon-Watching Island, they saw clearly that the person coming was a strange cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage.

This person was dressed in extremely simple linen clothes. She was a silver-haired old woman with a restrained look and a ruddy complexion. She held a pitch-black dragon wood staff in her hand, emitting a subtle and powerful aura.

Qin Mingguang judged at the first sight that although they were both in the early Nascent Soul stage, the old woman in front of him was obviously much stronger than Master Lihuo.

As he expected, the moment Master Lihuo saw the silver-haired old woman appear, he immediately put on a smile and greeted her warmly:

"Fellow Daoist Long Mu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that you would come too."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, let me introduce you to you. This person is the famous Long Mu Zhen Jun from the Penglai Immortal Sect in the East China Sea Immortal Cultivation World."

The silver-haired old woman known as 'Lord Longmu' simply nodded slightly in response to Master Lihuo's greeting.

Then she turned her head again, a smile appeared on her face, and said to Qin Ming:

"I have been doing some work near the Black Sea recently, and I happened to hear that a new Yuanying Daoist friend was born in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World, so I came here uninvited to ask for a glass of wedding wine. Do you mind, Daoist friend?"
