Chapter 786 The Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers, A Deal

On the main peak of Little Turtle Peak.

The clouds and mist were ethereal, and the weather was fine and sunny.

Qin Ming's true form was sitting calmly in a rattan chair, with the Devouring Sky Rat, Little Silver Fox, and Tian Ling'er serving him as they burned incense and brewed tea.
The demonic infant spirit went on adventures for him, while he stayed here leisurely, enjoying himself immensely.

only--

Qin Ming also learned about the situation in the Linglong Immortal Mansion Secret Realm at the same time.

Especially after communicating with the Silverwing Frost Bee, he couldn't help but stand up from the rattan chair, revealing a rather solemn expression.

This is not looking good!

Seeing his serious expression and hearing his words, the Devouring Rat couldn't help but ask:

"Master, has something happened?"

Qin Ming gazed at the distant sea of ​​clouds, nodded slightly, and said in a deep thought, "Hmm, that immortal abode is probably in big trouble."

"How is the third one?" the Devouring Rat couldn't help but ask.

Qin Ming saw his worried expression.

He glanced at it and said, "Don't worry, my demonic infant spirit will definitely bring Silverwing back."

Upon hearing this, the Sky-Devouring Rat finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Qin Ming's next words put it in its throat again.

"That immortal abode has been completely occupied by the insect race, and an ancient moth is about to awaken."

"What? That's truly terrifying."

……

The inner area of ​​the Linglong Immortal Abode Secret Realm.

After exchanging words with the Silverwing Frost Bee for a while, Qin Ming roughly understood the situation here.

Seeing him deep in thought, the Xuan Turtle God asked, "What's wrong, Fellow Daoist Yin?"

Qin Ming was just about to reply.

Suddenly, the nearby void twisted and a dark green demonic flower appeared out of thin air.

It was these two who had encountered the terrifying demonic plant in the oasis earlier. After the flower buds bloomed, a small green figure was revealed inside.

Upon seeing this, Qin Ming and his companion immediately felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

These two men, practitioners of the Daoist arts, considered themselves unparalleled in their ability to conceal their presence and hide their true nature.

However, this person still noticed and came to their door, which immediately made him feel a chill.

Qin Ming also raised his hand and released two large swarms of insects, preparing to fight another battle with the Flower Spirit Clan.

But at this moment.

Something unexpected happened to Qin Ming and his companion.

Seeing only the small green figure opposite him, he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Hey, hey, hey! Fellow Daoists, please don't make a move. I have no ill intentions in coming to see you two, but rather I have a transaction I'd like to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, the tense atmosphere at the scene immediately eased.

However, Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God-King did not immediately relax their vigilance.

The Xuan Turtle God-King did not immediately agree to the other party's request, but instead asked, "How did you discover us?"

"Hehe! Well, our clan has a special ability to leave a trace of floral fragrance. When I was fighting with you two earlier, I used a little trick. Hehehe!" The little green man chuckled and explained.

Then, he made a hand seal, and wisps of pale green aura floated out from Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God, appearing on their own.

With a casual wave of the green figure's hand, all the eerie aura vanished from the two of them.

"Don't worry, fellow Daoists, I have already removed those traces of floral fragrance."

"Now we can sit down and have a proper talk, right?"

After the little green figure finished doing all this, its gaze lingered on Qin Ming for a few more moments, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Qin Ming raised an eyebrow and asked, "You were planning to kill us both earlier, but now you're being so agreeable. Are you perhaps planning something?"

"Hehe! It's like we became friends after a fight! Let me introduce myself first. I am Tu E from the Flower Spirit Clan. May I ask how you two fellow Daoists are addressed?" said the green little man named Tu E.

"Judging from your auras, although you two are disguised by taking special pills, you are different from the demons and monsters outside. You should be human, right?"

Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God exchanged a glance, surprised that the other party could see through even this so easily, so he no longer concealed himself and said, "That's right."

"I am Yin Lingzi, and this is Fellow Daoist Gu Chang'an, the Divine Lord of the Black Tortoise."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Yin and Fellow Daoist Gu. I've already witnessed your extraordinary abilities and skills, which are truly remarkable," Tu'e said, cupping his hands in greeting.

The Xuan Turtle God immediately asked, "Tell me first, what kind of deal do you want to make with us?"

"Well, you two fellow Daoists probably don't know yet, but a great change is about to happen here, and it's related to the ancient insect plague," Tu'e explained.

"An ancient insect plague?" Upon hearing this, the Xuan Turtle God Lord showed a look of surprise.

Tu'e explained, "That's right. I'm sure you two fellow human cultivators have also seen that this Linglong Immortal Mansion has been completely controlled by the ferocious insects. I have no reason to deceive you."

The Xuan Turtle God was initially somewhat hesitant, but before he could even respond...

Qin Ming calmly replied, "Speak, how do you wish to cooperate?"

Xuan Turtle God was taken aback. Seeing that Qin Ming did not doubt the authenticity of the matter at all, he asked about the cooperation method.

He immediately asked, "Fellow Daoist Yin, do you really believe this old fellow's words so much?"

"Most likely, let's hear what he has to say first." Qin Ming nodded slightly.

When Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan saw that Qin Ming and his companion were willing to sit down and talk, she was overjoyed.

He then glanced around cautiously and whispered to the two of them, "Fellow Daoists, this is not the place to talk. Please come with me."

"Rest assured, I also have a favor to ask of you two. Human cultivators are not as cunning as demons and monsters. They are relatively easy to communicate with and have the means to enter the inner area of ​​the Immortal Mansion. That's why I came to you two."

After a moment's thought, Qin Ming accepted the invitation.

He just had a conversation with Silverwing.

It is now known that the Flower Spirit Clan is enslaved by the Insect Clan, and the green little man's words are basically true.

The Xuan Turtle God was still bewildered when he saw that 'Yin Lingzi' had agreed so readily.

However, after spending time with Qin Ming over these days, he realized that the other party was a man of principle like himself, acting prudently and not making decisions without certainty.

Therefore, he didn't ask any more questions and followed the two of them, intending to see what would happen.

Subsequently.

Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan concealed her aura and, with Qin Ming and the other person, flew away in one of the directions of the Immortal Mansion.

Most of the day has passed.

After traversing towering mountains, the three arrived at a valley shrouded in gray mist.

To Qin Ming and his companion's surprise, the gray fog here seemed to be somewhat peculiar, actually managing to completely block the foul air polluting the Immortal Abode's secret realm.

"Fellow Daoists, this is the ancestral land of my Flower Spirit Clan. Our clan's 'Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers' wishes to personally meet you two. Please follow me." Tu'e waved his hand, and the gray mist parted on its own, creating a passage that led deep into the valley, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Qin Ming hadn't expected that there was someone with even higher cultivation than this old man.
Doesn't that mean that the 'Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers' that Tu'e mentioned is most likely to have a higher cultivation level than him, and is very likely to be a powerful being in the Integration Stage?
Both Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God were extremely cautious and careful people.

Upon hearing this, they exchanged a glance but did not immediately follow them inside.

When Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan saw Qin Ming and his companion's reaction, she immediately understood their concerns.

So he was just about to give an explanation.

The next moment.

Above the valley, a woman's face materialized from gray mist and spoke to the group:

“My two human friends, there is no need to worry. I have no ill intentions. I just want to make a deal with you.”

"If I wanted to harm you, I would have done so long ago. Besides, you two are quite powerful. If you wanted to leave, it shouldn't have been difficult for you."

As the woman's face appeared and she spoke, Qin Ming and his companion pondered for a moment, then followed Tu'e into the valley of the Flower Spirit Clan without further conversation.

Once they entered the valley, they discovered that a large group of low-ranking Flower Spirits were living there.

These Flower Spirit Clan cultivators were all constantly busy, seemingly collecting spirit ores and materials.

Qin Ming's gaze inadvertently fell upon a group of cultivators' convoy, and he discovered that the mine carts were filled with immortal jade spirit ore.
However, there are not many Flower Spirits in the valley. The entire clan only has about two or three thousand people in total.

Moreover, most of them are below the Refinement stage, and powerful cultivators like Tu'e are almost never seen again.

Qin Ming and his companion breathed a sigh of relief.

After half a stick of incense.

The little green figure, Tu'e, led Qin Ming and the Xuan Turtle God to the deepest part of the valley.

A mountain waterfall cascades down.

Directly below the waterfall lies a pool brimming with spiritual energy, where rising mist sways and is shrouded in colorful rays of light.

In the very center of the clear pool, a small patch of jade-green lotus leaves grows, and in the very center of them, there is a magnificent seven-colored lotus several meters in size, radiating brilliant light.

As soon as Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God-King got close, they could feel a sacred and profound aura emanating from him.

"Reporting to the Holy Lord, I have delivered the two fellow human cultivators to you."

Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan stepped forward and bowed towards the center of the pool.

Followed by.

Under their watchful eyes, the seven-colored lotus slowly bloomed, revealing the figure of a woman inside.

The woman was dressed in a colorful floral dress and appeared to be about thirty-five or thirty-six years old. She had a dignified and elegant demeanor, and was aloof and otherworldly.

Her eyebrows were like dark blue ink, her eyes held a cold light, and her pupils were a deep emerald green, with a hint of ever-flowing vitality.

The only strange thing is...

Several jet-black chains were wrapped around her body, disappearing into the deep pool.

Qin Ming could clearly sense that these chains emitted a unique aura of insect filth, indicating that the Flower Spirit Clan patriarch was trapped here and couldn't even get out of the pool in front of him.

No wonder he only used the gray mist and his own supernatural powers to manifest human faces and communicate with them.

"I, Qingyi, of the Flower Spirit Clan, greet the two young friends from the human race."

Her eyes swept over Qin Ming and the other man, as if trying to gauge their abilities.

However, their skills in concealing and disguising themselves were so advanced that even she couldn't detect much of what they were doing.

As the Holy Lord of Myriad Flowers spoke, he faintly revealed the aura of a powerful being in the Integration Stage, though it was somewhat unstable, clearly due to being trapped for too long.

Even so, Qin Ming and Xuan Turtle God were startled and stepped forward to return the greeting, saying, "Junior greets Senior Wan Hua."

Next.

The Holy Lord of Myriad Flowers didn't waste any words with them and went straight to the point.

"I'm sure Elder Tu'e has already told you that I have a deal to make with you two."

"I wonder what kind of deal Senior Wan Hua wishes to make with us?" Qin Ming couldn't help but be on high alert when dealing with such a monster who had lived for countless years.

The Holy Lord of Myriad Flowers said calmly, "I would like to ask the two of you to help my race break free from the control of the insectoid race and escape from the Spirit Dragon Immortal Palace."

Qin Ming: “.”

"Why does Senior Wan Hua say such a thing?" Xuan Gui Shen Jun asked in surprise.

"In a few months, the calamity-causing insect from this immortal abode will once again descend upon the world, and everything here will become its food," the Holy Lord of Myriad Flowers said expressionlessly.

"Furthermore, the Zerg have opened several large wormholes, connecting to this Immortal Abode. The Zerg army will inevitably descend upon the Spirit Realm through the Linglong Immortal Abode. The Zerg have been secretly planning this for tens of thousands of years."

"When the time is right, that scourge of the world will be reborn in its full glory once the power of origin appears and the two merge into one."

"At that time, let alone the two young friends, even the powerful cultivators of your human race might not be able to manage it."

Qin Ming had already learned about this from Yin Yi before he came here, so he didn't react much.

But the Xuan Turtle God was different. After hearing such explosive news from the Flower Spirit Clan's patriarch, he was completely stunned.

Clearly, the difficulty of their transaction and cooperation with the other party has exceeded their own cultivation level.
It's already quite impressive that the two of them could protect themselves in the Immortal Abode Secret Realm, let alone escape with others.

It is rather unrealistic to help so many members of the Flower Spirit Clan escape from the control of the Insect Clan with their families.

But the next moment.

The Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers noticed their reactions and immediately said, "If they were cultivators from other alien races, I wouldn't count on them."

"But if Fellow Daoist Yin Lingzi were here, there might actually be a chance that this matter could be accomplished."

"You must have a close relationship with Yin Ji, who entered the Immortal Abode more than a hundred years ago, right?"

This statement came out.

Not only Qin Ming himself, but even the Xuan Turtle Divine Lord beside him was greatly surprised, turning to Qin Ming and saying:

"Fellow Daoist Yin, so you were hiding something from me? That's really not very fair."

"Is what Senior Wan Hua said true?"

Qin Ming, his little scheme exposed, immediately touched his nose and replied, "That's right, one of my spirit pets did indeed enter that dilapidated immortal palace."

"To be honest, one of the reasons I've come all this way is for that spirit pet."

Upon hearing his confirmation, a faint glimmer of hope appeared in the eyes of the Flower Spirit Clan's Holy Lord.

She immediately waved her hand forward, and two large boxes appeared above the pool, their lids open.

A rich, milky-white halo, filled with an overwhelming aura of immortal energy, suddenly appeared!

There were two large boxes filled to the brim with immortal jade!
Qin Ming and his companion glanced at it and found that there were several thousand pieces of low-grade immortal jade alone.

There were even more than ten pieces of mid-grade immortal jade that we had seen in the oasis before!
