Chapter 750 The Spirit Fruit Ripens
After spending a day at Xiaogui Peak, Yao Tiannan and Su Yuqing took their leave.

Qin Ming learned from them that after the passage to the underworld was destroyed, all the ghostly soldiers and demons that had attacked Tianxing City retreated back to the Tianji Mountains with the demons.

Including Che Laoguai, who is in the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, he will probably have to live under someone else's roof from now on.

The Eclipse Dragon King has once again disappeared without a trace, and this fiend remains a major threat to the human race.

This fiend possesses powerful spatial abilities, which even a Grandmaster at the Fusion Stage cannot harm.

Not only was he able to break free from the suppression and seal of the Fire God Child, but even the Divine Seal Zen Master was helpless against his spatial innate supernatural power.

If this creature is already so powerful at the sixth level of perfection, then if it were to advance to the seventh level, no one would be its match.

Therefore, the human race's leadership also issued an order to find the whereabouts of this monster at all costs.

This conflict between several races, which began with the Yellow Springs Devouring Abyss, ultimately ended with the victory of the human alliance, but it also came at a considerable cost.

In the final battle, several Golden Armor Star Guards at the Void Refinement stage alone perished, along with countless other cultivators. These cultivators were the core backbone of the human race, to whom a great deal of resources had been invested.

For Tianxing City, this was a devastating blow.

After experiencing war.

Next comes the long recovery period.

However, Qin Ming learned from their conversation that although the human race had won the battle and repelled the alien alliance led by the demon and monster races, Qin Ming was still aware of the truth.

Both sides suffered losses, but this also foreshadowed the early outbreak of the alien catastrophe.

Given the nature of the demon race, they would absolutely not let such a great loss go unpunished.

……

A few months later.

Little Turtle Peak's cultivation life has returned to normal.

After this incident, the other spiritual plant sects in the Donghuang Mountains, as well as the Li family of Wutong Mountain, also deeply felt the importance of having the protection of the Refining Void Divine Lord.

The ancestors and clan leaders of these families found a time to all come and seek refuge with Xiaoguifeng once again.

They were willing to offer up many rare and precious materials, and, like the Xu family now, be at Qin Ming's beck and call.

However, Qin Ming was naturally carefree and had no intention of building his own power, so he still did not agree to their request.

In the near future.

The demon and monster races have suffered this defeat and will not invade again for some time, so there is no need to worry too much.

"You need not worry too much. Since we are all in the Donghuang Mountains, even if I have no intention of building a Void Refinement level force, we can still help each other out since we are in the same mountain range. If we encounter any changes in the future, we can stand together and fight side by side."

After Qin Ming said that, Li Changqing and the Green Calyx Ancestor of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley were all relieved.

Despite saying this, the words implied that all these major forces had already submitted to Little Turtle Peak and were showing a hidden willingness to pledge allegiance.

Seeing this, Qin Ming stopped trying to persuade him.

After all, once he reached the Void Refinement stage, he would indeed need more manpower to help him gather some scarce cultivation resources.

These people can also be used by him, and there won't be too many karmic entanglements; it's just mutual help among neighbors.

He summoned Baili Hui and Mo Lingwei and entrusted them with handling all these matters.

Since following Qin Ming for many years, Baili Hui has not only recovered his cultivation to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, but also gained such great power, which is the pinnacle of his life.

After settling things outside, Qin Ming resumed his daily life of farming and cultivation.

And at the same time.

The resolution of this conflict crisis has sparked much speculation among the cultivators.

As news of victory from the Yellow Springs Devouring Abyss Alliance arrived.

Among the most unbelievable news was the destruction of the Eclipse Realm Passage and the slaying of the Tu Luo Demon General. These earth-shattering news spread throughout the human spiritual realm.

Suddenly, a huge wave was stirred up.

Everyone is discussing who this person is, to be able to do such a thing.

They even wondered if some powerful human being had intervened, but that seemed impossible.

Because such important figures would be immediately targeted by powerful alien races, let alone enter the underworld.

On Little Turtle Peak.

Qin Ming, a key figure in this matter, kept his achievements and fame hidden.

In a corner where no one paid attention, he planted and tended to his spiritual plants.

During this period, Qin Ming was also summoned by the higher-ups of Tianxing City, mainly to ask him to refine some high-level recovery pills.

In this war, there were quite a few high-level cultivators who were seriously injured, so some special healing medicines were in short supply.

He didn't refuse, after all, he still held the title of honorary guest, and he had to do his part in some small way.

After this period of alchemy practice, he also gained a lot of contribution points, which he could use to exchange for resources in the future.

Order is being restored in Tianxing City in an orderly manner.

Qin Ming also went to the Zhitian Palace to pay his respects to the Palace Master Qian Yuanzi, who had sacrificed his life for the greater good of the human race.

……

at the same time.

After their defeat, the Dragon King of the Eclipse Realm and the Old Monster Che from the Underworld fled the Kunlun Domain.

They prepared to head to the Heavenly Ridge Mountains to seek refuge with the Demon Clan and bide their time for a while.

The two men still couldn't accept the fact of defeat.

"How utterly despicable!"

"We were just a hair's breadth away from taking down the Yellow Spring Devouring Abyss, but unexpectedly, such a change has occurred."

"Cooperating with those demons is really not a wise move!"

Old Che's face was sinister, and he spoke with considerable resentment.

Clearly, he finds it hard to accept the fact that he is homeless and needs to live under someone else's roof.

But the next moment.

As they passed through a beautiful mountain range, the two of them happened to encounter an old man with a sage-like appearance, accompanied by a young Taoist boy in a green robe, who was fishing by a stream.

It was none other than the previously vanished Daoist Lu Yun, and his subordinate Lu Tong.

Old Monster Che released his divine sense to investigate, but found nothing amiss. He assumed that there were only two low-level cultivators present, so he casually used a divine power to try and kill them to silence them.

After all, the human race is currently hunting down the two of them, and if the news leaks out, it will bring them endless trouble.

However, just when Che Laoguai thought he could easily kill the two, the situation suddenly changed dramatically.

All that could be seen was a streak of gray, dark energy unleashed by Old Monster Che, just as it was about to strike the two people on the ground.

It's like encountering an invisible barrier; in an instant, it vanishes like a bubble.

"You two little brats, I haven't even laid a hand on you yet, and you're already eyeing us."

The Daoist Lu Yun's calm and collected voice drifted gently from the void.

Followed by.

The entire space suddenly froze. The Eclipse Dragon King and Che Laoguai seemed to be frozen in mid-air by an invisible force, unable to even have a thought.

Not to mention resistance or anything like that.

Such terrifying methods even caused extreme horror to show in the gray eyes of the Devouring World Dragon King. He had never felt anything like this even from a powerful being like the Divine Seal Zen Master.

It was as if life and death hung in the balance, depending on the other's single thought.
"This powerful human being," Old Monster Che was also terrified, knowing he had kicked a hornet's nest.

"No, you're not a human at the Fusion Stage... Ah!"

Amidst their terrified and desperate thoughts, Daoist Lu Yun's gaze turned cold!
In the blink of an eye, the bodies of the Eclipse Dragon King and Old Monster Che exploded in mid-air.
Each of them turned into a cloud of blood mist.

"I happen to be short of materials for alchemy, so I'll use you as my starting point."

Almost instantly, the two notorious villains perished here.

Daoist Lu Yun flicked his sleeve, rolled up the demon core and storage bag, and then left the valley with Lu Tong.

The two figures disappeared into the void in an instant.
The entire process of killing the Devouring World Dragon King and Old Monster Che took only a few breaths, as if it were just a trivial matter done casually.

"Master, where are we going next?"

"I heard that young Li is brewing some amazing celestial wine recently, so naturally I have to go and ask for a drink, hehehe."

"I never expected that this kid would break through to the Void Refinement stage so quietly. I was right about him. I wonder how that Spirit Devourer is doing?"

"I'll go take a look after I finish that matter."

"However, since we happen to be passing through human territory again, we should keep a low profile to avoid having to deal with those old guys again."

"Yes, Master, I understand."

As Lu Tong listened to his master's words, he couldn't help but think of that erratic gray-haired rat demon again.
I found myself missing it without even realizing it.

……

In Little Turtle Peak.

A thriving and prosperous scene.

From then on, the Moon Gazing Deity's fame spread far and wide, and more and more cultivators came to join him.

With her shrewd mind, Mo Lingwei quickly managed and planned the spiritual land in an orderly manner.

Clan cultivators of all ranks are organizing people to farm, creating a vibrant and thriving scene.

Even the wasteland in the southern region of Little Turtle Peak has been extensively reclaimed.

These vacant spiritual lands, once utilized, could generate a considerable profit for Qin Ming.

Time flies like water.

Several years have passed in a flash.

On this day, Qin Ming was tending to the spiritual plants within the Little Spirit Realm.

The 'Mysterious Spirit Peach' he had planted earlier had survived and, nourished by the immortal's abandoned field, had grown to over ten feet tall and produced tender green leaves.

It's only a matter of time before I can eat a sixth-grade top-quality immortal peach.

The sixth-grade spirit rice planted in this spirit field has also begun to sprout, with wisps of ethereal spiritual energy lingering around it.

Two golden entries also appeared on these sixth-tier spirit rice plants:

[Name]: Taiyi Void Yuan Rice [Entry]: Refining Void Power x5 (Maturity 8%)
[Name]: Taiyi Void Rice [Entry]: Echoes of the Great Dao x1 (Maturity 7%)
Even Qin Ming, who was usually calm, was taken aback when he saw the newly appeared term.

"Isn't this [Echoes of the Great Dao] the key ingredient for refining a mid-grade sixth-tier elixir—the Nine-Turn Enlightenment Pill?"

"It actually appeared just like that."

After regaining his senses, Qin Ming couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

After all, the legendary [Echoes of the Dao] are said to be something that only occasionally gives birth to a few wisps of spiritual matter when a powerful being at the Integration Stage or above preaches; they are extremely rare and difficult to find even in the Spirit Realm.
He immediately took out some spiritual materials to fertilize the several sixth-order Taiyi Void Spirit Rice plants.

Subsequently.

Qin Ming then came to his natal spiritual plant, the Yanfu Immortal Vine.

He gazed at the ancient and upright black vine, which had accompanied him through countless years of cultivation and witnessed the mysterious black vine gradually reach its current state, and felt a strange sense of melancholy and emotion.

More than a hundred golden and silver spiritual fruits, each the size of an egg, have already formed on the black vines of the Yanfu Immortal Vine. They are covered with spiritual patterns.

The maturity progress of the terms he was looking at also updated accordingly:
【Name】：Yanfu Immortal Vine 【Attribute】：Refining Void Power x5 (100% Maturity, Harvestable)
【Name】：Yanfu Immortal Vine 【Entry】：Time Flies x5 (100% Maturity, Harvestable)
【Name】：Yanfu Immortal Vine 【Attribute】：Refined Void Soul Power x5 (100% Maturity, Harvestable)
Qin Ming immediately cast a spell on the vines, harvesting all the ripe spiritual fruits.

In an instant, fifteen purple words appeared in his mind.

After collecting all the spirit seeds that had been used to cast the Thorn spell, he did not rush to use the inscriptions for cultivation.

Instead, they arrived at the Immortal's Lost Field, right in front of the 'Spirit-Calling Demon Fruit'.

This spiritual plant was cared for day and night by the Devouring Sky Rat, and was also watered with the blood of a sixth-order demon beast with true spiritual bloodline, nurtured almost without its side.

Now, nine extremely beautiful spiritual flowers have bloomed, presenting the appearance of a blood-red spiritual lotus.

The Devouring Rat was currently carrying a vessel and carefully pouring the last bit of beast blood inside onto it.

The Spirit-Summoning Flower absorbed the blood of the Six Extremes Demon Beasts, and countless blood-red patterns lit up between the blood lotuses, as if it were breathing on its own, which was quite mysterious.

As the Devouring Rat carefully watered the vessel, the last few drops of beast blood were exhausted.

It held the jar in its little hands and shook it hard, but no more animal blood flowed down.

"Gone!"

Seeing that the demon fruit that determined its cultivation advancement was about to ripen, but the subsequent fertilizer was gone, it couldn't help but feel anxious.

They even wished they could water it with their own blood.

"What? You're going to sacrifice yourself to feed the flowers? That's so noble!"

Just then, Qin Ming's voice interrupted the Devouring Rat's thoughts.

"Hehe! Master!" The Devouring Rat quickly stood up, knowing that Qin Ming must have some plan.

Qin Ming sent it away, then used his supernatural powers to observe the demonic plant.

It was discovered that the Spirit Summoning Flower had absorbed enough beast blood and no longer needed to be watered.

Now all we need to do is wait for it to ripen.

However, these sixth-grade high-quality demon fruits only ripen once every few thousand years.

His spirit pets obviously couldn't wait that long.

Therefore, Qin Ming applied all of his newly acquired "Time Flies" attribute to the Spirit Summoning Fruit.

All of a sudden.

As a vast and boundless power of time descended, the Spirit-Summoning Flower before him completed the process of blossoming and bearing fruit in just a few days.

Within the immortal's abandoned field, atop a two-foot-tall crimson spirit plant hung nine fist-sized blood-red demon fruits, shaped like hearts, with several Dao patterns protruding from their surfaces.

The moment the Spirit-Calling Fruit formed, various phantoms of true spirits even hovered and danced above the spiritual plant, creating a wondrous sight.

A strange fruit fragrance, fatally alluring to demonic beasts, also wafted out and drifted towards the spiritual realm.

As soon as it smelled the aroma, the Devouring Rat transformed into a streak of light and arrived beside Qin Ming in the blink of an eye.

Its gaze was fixed on the ripe, sixth-grade superior Spirit Summoning Fruit, and it said with great excitement:

"It's ripe! It's really ripe!"

Not only it, but also Xiaoqing, Blue Ice Fairy, Little Silver Fox, Tian Ling'er, Xuan Shui Crocodile, and Silver Wing Frost Bee all gathered around.

Each of them gazed at the wondrous spiritual fruit, revealing a strong longing!
I unconsciously started swallowing hard.
