Chapter 739 Spreading beans and forming an army
The courtyard outside the cave on Little Turtle Peak.

Qin Ming listened to the messages sent back by Mo Lingwei and Baili Hui and learned that he had once again become the revered Divine Lord Li, admired by many rogue cultivators.
His expression immediately turned strange.

The number of divine masters who possess two sixth-tier immortal cultivation techniques that he has now revealed is definitely less than five, even in the main city of the human race.

After hearing this, he also felt slightly helpless.

"Well, the master doesn't want to show off either, but he's just too outstanding, hehe!"

"Truly, the revered Divine Lord Li is a murderer and arsonist, Fellow Daoist Qin."

The Devouring Rat was holding a large bowl, chopsticks in hand, shoveling newly grown Demon Spike Rice into its mouth, and making indistinct comments.

"Just eat your food, why are you talking so much?"

"Are you itching for a beating again?"

Qin Ming patted its head and said, "After you finish eating, go and plant the newly acquired Purple Jade Spirit Millet with Little Silver Fox."

The Devouring Rat was scolded by Qin Ming and sighed repeatedly.

The little silver fox also possesses exceptionally high talent in spiritual plants. Under Qin Ming's tutelage and through long-term exposure to his influence, its spiritual plant cultivation has already surpassed the fifth level.

With her and Tian Ling'er looking after Qin Ming's herb garden, even if he were to cultivate in seclusion for a long time, there wouldn't be any major problems.

On the terraced fields on the slope of Xiaoguifeng Mountain.

Qin Ming personally demonstrated how to plant the spirit seeds of the Purple Jade Spirit Millet and taught them three corresponding spirit plant techniques.

Now, in addition to the Demon Ear Spirit Rice, another type of fifth-grade superior spirit rice will soon be grown on these terraced fields.

Once they mature, these spirit rice grains can be exchanged for cultivation resources, and incidentally, they can also be used to accelerate the growth of certain skills.

For Qin Ming now, with the continuous improvement of his cultivation level, the attribute that the low-level spiritual plants refreshed is still very useful: [Time Flies].

If one wants to increase their cultivation level, they need to continuously plant spiritual plants of the sixth rank or higher.

However, he has already planted the sixth-grade superior spiritual rice, 'Taiyi Xuyuan Rice', in the immortal's abandoned fields of the Lesser Spirit Realm.

He had already arranged the cultivation resources for the Void Refinement stage in advance.

Ever since.

A remarkably harmonious scene unfolded atop the terraced fields of Xiaoguifeng.

Qin Ming, accompanied by his three spirit pets, began cultivating spirit fields and planting spirit rice, one in front and one behind.

The Black Water Crocodile and the Silver Winged Frost Bee, who didn't know how to farm, followed behind them, flying up and down, shaking their heads and watching.

The master and servants spent half a day planting all the spirit rice. Now they just had to wait for it to sprout and carefully tend to it.

Such a large quantity of fifth-grade high-quality spirit rice is unique in the vicinity of Tianxing City.

On one side was low-grade fifth-tier demonic rice, and on the other side was high-grade fifth-tier purple jade millet, neatly divided on the terraced hillside.

The people cultivating on Little Turtle Peak witnessed this scene.

They couldn't help but sigh:
"The Peak Master is truly a role model for us all! Even at the Void Refinement stage, he still personally engages in farming!"

"That's right. In major sects, it's just a matter of a Refining Void Divine Lord saying a word, and who would dare not immediately obey?"

"With such a spirit of hard work, it would be an injustice if Senior Li did not achieve the Refinement of Void realm!"

……

From now on.

Qin Ming's achievement of becoming a sixth-order spirit plant master and his collaboration with two sixth-order alchemy masters from the Pill Pavilion to refine a sixth-order superior-grade divine pill became a popular topic of conversation in Tianxing City.

The reputation of "Lord Gazing at the Moon" has become so widespread in Tianxing City, the main human city, that almost everyone knows him.

They gradually began to gain fame.

Many cultivators and forces came to seek apprenticeship, learn skills, and pledge allegiance to the master.

Even some powerful sects have extended olive branches to him, offering extremely high terms in an attempt to recruit him.

However, he rejected them all.

Among these visiting cultivators were some young men and women with exceptional spiritual roots or special spiritual bodies.

Even so, Qin Ming didn't fancy any of them.

After all, he now even keeps the Kunpeng, one of the Ten Ancient True Spirit Kings, as a pet.
Very few things can catch his eye anymore.

Time passes slowly.

Spring goes and winter comes, the four seasons turn.

The Dao Soldier Spirit Beans that Qin Ming planted at the entrance of his cave have now fully matured.

He walked up to the spiritual plant, and saw that the golden words in his vision had changed:
[Name]: Dao Soldier Spirit Bean [Entry]: Refinement Void Mana x1 (100% Maturity, Harvestable)
[Name]: Dao Soldier Spirit Bean [Entry]: Refinement Void Mana x1 (100% Maturity, Harvestable)
Next.

Qin Ming raised his hand and cast a spell, quickly harvesting the Dao Soldier Spirit Beans full of spiritual energy.

He spread out his palm and counted carefully. From these sixth-order spiritual plants, he had harvested a total of twenty-one golden spiritual beans.

Qin Ming sensed that these Dao soldier spirit beans were all surrounded by subtle yet powerful fluctuations, and Dao patterns formed on their surfaces, intertwining to form a natural restriction.

Two of them had the most Dao patterns, with a full six golden Dao patterns on them, clearly indicating that they were the two with the strongest supernatural power.

The remaining Dao Soldier Spirit Beans all had five slightly dim yellow Dao patterns.

Qin Ming took out a special container and put all the Dao Soldier Spirit Beans into it, preparing to find an opportunity to test again what exactly these combat-type spiritual plants were all about.

At the same time he was picking the spirit beans.

In an instant, two deep purple leaf-shaped words appeared in his mind.

He quickly tidied himself up, sat down cross-legged inside the cave, and then used up the two [Refining Void Power] entries with a thought.

boom! !

In an instant, an incomparably powerful primordial energy was born from Qin Ming's body and poured into his Purple Mansion Primordial Spirit.

He was surrounded by the aura of ancient, verdant trees, and his already incredibly powerful aura rose even higher.

A few days later.

After fully digesting the entry, Qin Ming felt that his cultivation had taken another small step towards the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm.

These two [Refining Void Power] entries alone are enough to be equivalent to sixty years of his usual arduous cultivation.

My understanding of the power of spatial laws has deepened considerably.

After finishing his practice, Qin Ming opened his dark eyes, felt his improved cultivation level, and was very satisfied.

After all, once you reach the Void Refinement stage, it is extremely difficult to increase your cultivation even slightly. The fact that he was able to advance his cultivation again in such a short time is something that many people would envy.

The primordial spirit of the Void Refining stage becomes ethereal and merges with heaven and earth. It places more emphasis on the understanding of the laws of the Great Dao. This is something that cannot be achieved simply by accumulating knowledge and magical power.

However, during this process, Qin Ming also felt that his main cultivation technique had reached a bottleneck.

"It seems that obtaining the Azure Emperor's Manual should be put on the agenda."

After the cultivation was completed.

Qin Ming then got up and left the cave, took out a few Dao Soldier Spirit Beans and planted them again, carefully tending to them.

Subsequently.

He arrived outside the cave, in an open space, took out a Dao Soldier Spirit Bean with five Dao patterns, and released it forward.

Roar! !

A tremendous, earth-shattering roar resounded, and the Dao Soldier Spirit Bean that flew out of Qin Ming's hand instantly transformed into a Vajra Demon Form in mid-air, possessing the strength of a fifth-order perfect realm.

It's about the same as the supernatural power Qin Ming displayed back then.

If they go all out, even someone in the early stages of the Void Refinement realm might be able to withstand a few blows.

"So this Spirit Bean can manifest some of its own supernatural powers." Qin Ming thought to himself as he looked at the Vajra Demon Form displaying its supernatural powers.

"If these five-patterned Dao Soldier Spirit Beans are so sharp, then those two six-patterned Spirit Beans probably have the strength of the Void Refinement level. I wonder what kind of divine power I manifested."

"These sixth-tier Dao Weapon Spirit Beans are indeed incredibly powerful. If more of them were released and all of them were thrown at once, who could withstand that?"

"Its advantage lies in its large quantity."

Just then, the Sky-Eating Rat seemed to hear the commotion and charged over with its black steel fork.

"What happened?"

"Damn it, someone actually came to our door?"

"Let me see who has the audacity to dare to mess with our Little Turtle Peak!"

"Hey! Master, what are you doing here?!"

The commotion had also alerted Qin Ming's spirit beasts, with the Devouring Sky Rat rushing over in a great hurry.

But they discovered that Qin Ming was testing his supernatural powers and spells.

But when it looked at the towering Vajra Demon statue not far away, it was startled, "Isn't this the emanation of my master?"

When Qin Ming saw the Devouring Rat approaching, he was eager to give it a try, so he said to it, "Why don't you go and fight this Vajra Demon Form?"

"Ah? Master, I dare not! This is a demonic form at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and I am only at the mid-stage of the fifth rank. How could I be his match?" Upon hearing this, the Devouring Rat's legs went weak, and it almost started to tremble.

Qin Ming frowned and said, "Weren't you very imposing just now? Show that aura."

"I...I...If I had known that Master was testing his supernatural powers, how could I have dared?" The Devouring Rat shrank back, shaking its head like a rattle drum.

It was clearly well aware of its own strength and seemed to be no match for that Vajra Demon.

Qin Ming grabbed the Devouring Sky Rat by the back and threw it in front of the demonic form formed from the Spirit Bean without saying a word.

next moment.

The Devouring Rat had no choice but to unleash its full power and engage the Demon in battle.

Rumble!
In an instant, the sounds of fighting, like mountains collapsing and tsunamis crashing, echoed through the valley.

Blue Ice Fairy, Little Silver Fox, Tian Ling'er, as well as Xuan Shui Crocodile and Silver Wing Frost Bee, also came to watch.

"I'm going to fight you to the death!!"

After awakening its true spirit bloodline, the Devouring Rat's strength greatly increased, its hide became thick and tough, and its supernatural powers far surpassed those of an ordinary fifth-tier demon lord.

However, he was then beaten into a frenzy by the Vajra Demon Form transformed from the Dao Soldier Spirit Bean.

Before long, he was beaten black and blue, his face swollen and bruised, and he slunk away, not knowing where he was.
The onlookers all covered their faces and laughed.

Immediately afterwards, the figure of the Vajra Demon also disappeared, transforming back into a golden bean and falling down.

Qin Ming raised his hand and took the spirit bean in his hand to examine it. He found that the essence in this Dao Soldier Spirit Bean had been exhausted, and it was obviously impossible to use it a second time.

"This Spirit Bean can last for the time it takes to burn two incense sticks after it is thrown out, and it is a one-time consumable."

"However, it is quite impressive that it has such power."

"It is even many times more powerful than some fifth-grade high-quality talismans or fifth-grade puppets."

"I never thought that a spirit plant master could grow such a rare thing. There are truly no wonders in the spirit world."

After some experimentation, Qin Ming gained a clearer and more intuitive understanding of the sixth-order Dao Soldier Spirit Bean.

He then dismissed the onlookers, letting them go about their own business.

In the Little Spirit Realm.

The Devouring Rat looked grief-stricken, its head swollen like a pig's. Tian Ling'er and the Little Silver Fox were patiently applying medicine to it.

小青化作小牛犊般大小，也是凑过来，见到噬天鼠被揍成这样，也不禁伸出舌头舔舐伤口。

"This is outrageous! They can't even beat a single bean."

"Hmph! Once I grow into a sixth-tier demon god and fully awaken my true spirit bloodline, fortunes will change!"

"Ouch! That hurts so much! Little Silver Fox, be gentle!"

……

Next.

Qin Ming took out all the spiritual materials for refining the 'Seven Crimson Condensation Pill' from his storage bag.

These sixth-tier spiritual materials were originally purchased from the Nine Spirits Merchant Guild.

In order to purchase elixir formulas and spiritual materials, he almost emptied his savings of immortal jade.

However, if he succeeds in refining the pills, he will be able to recoup his investment with interest.

Apart from the main ingredient, the sap of a sixth-tier Soul-Nourishing Spirit Wood, everything else was gathered.

So he came to the territory of Xiaoling.

As I passed by, I saw the Sky-Eating Rat looking disheveled and somewhat comical.

He then walked over, coughed lightly, and said:
"Let's see if you'll still be so arrogant in the future. You can't even beat a spirit bean, yet you keep saying you have a true spirit body."

"Master, don't worry! Once the Spirit-Calling Sacred Fruit matures, my cultivation will definitely advance greatly! Then I will fight that Spirit Bean again!" Upon hearing this, the Devouring Rat became anxious, scrambled to its feet, and immediately declared confidently.

"Alright, alright, you don't need to go farming for the next few days. Take some time to rest."

Qin Ming nodded, patted its shoulder, and offered some encouragement.

Subsequently.

He arrived at the Star Sea Divine Vine, a divine tree in the human realm that had followed Qin Ming for hundreds of years. Several years ago, he had forced it to mature to the age of ten thousand.

Furthermore, it has advanced to the level of a sixth-tier spiritual plant.

At this moment, it looks like a pale blue, transparent spiritual plant radiating dazzling starlight, which is quite mystical.

As the branches and leaves sway, there is even a tassel of starlight that cleanses the soul and slowly nourishes and strengthens it.

This Starry Sea Divine Vine can continue to grow, and there is a chance that it will bloom into the legendary 'Starry Sea Soul Flower'.

Qin Ming took out a jade bottle, then cut open a branch of the Star Sea Divine Vine and extracted some sap.

In an instant, a liquid, as clear and lustrous as glass or amber, filled with astonishing brilliance and spiritual charm, flowed into the jade bottle.

This is an extremely rare sixth-grade alchemy ingredient; even the Nine Spirits Merchant Guild doesn't have it.

Fortunately, Qin Ming planted one himself, so he could use it endlessly for alchemy in the future.

After collecting the spiritual materials.

Qin Ming then left the Lesser Spirit Realm and went to his outer cave to refine pills.

Qin Ming was already very skilled at refining sixth-order divine pills.

In addition, he often exchanged alchemy experiences with Daoist Xuanguan and Master Kongzhi, and the two of them generously shared their experience in refining the Seven Crimson Condensing Void Pill with Qin Ming.

After some research, he was now more than 70-80% confident in refining this sixth-order divine pill.

For an alchemist, this is already an extremely high success rate.

The following days.

Qin Ming then began to refine the pills methodically and systematically.

A few days later.

Above the cave on Little Turtle Peak, a fantastic and magnificent radiant light suddenly appeared, followed by a refreshing fragrance of elixir.

Within the cave.

Seven divine pills, radiating a blue glow, lay quietly in Qin Ming's hand, exuding a spiritual aura of the Void Refinement level.

His alchemy this time can be described as very successful. After consuming all the spiritual materials, he refined a total of eight Seven Crimson Condensing Void Pills.

After deducting the one he had promised Manager Huang to sell to the Nine Spirits Merchant Guild after it was refined, he still had seven left.

This is enough for my own cultivation, or for exchanging for other Void Refinement level resources.

After all, he had already taken one of these miraculous pills before. If he took too many, even the best pills would develop resistance.

Subsequently.

Qin Ming carefully put away these extremely precious sixth-order divine pills.
