"Tier Four Middle-Grade Vajra Gourd!!"

As he delved deeper, Qin Ming discovered that this place was a meticulously maintained Spirit Medicine Garden.

Exotic high-tier Spirit Plants, which were rare to see in the outside world, were in abundance, dazzling his eyes.

"Blue Sea Cyan Profound Flower, Three Yang Red Gold Grass, Three-faced Beast Heart Fruit, Black Orchid Heart Grass, White Silk Night-blooming Cereus..."

Initially, Qin Ming thought that the Spirit Plants in his Little Spirit Realm were already unparalleled.

But after arriving here, he finally saw the true foundation inherited from an ancient sect.

"Heh heh! Fellow Daoist Qin, I reckon this is just True Monarch Dragon Wood’s private medicine garden, not the true foundation of the Penglai Sect." The long-silent Qingyang the Old Demon timely reminded.

"After all, during ancient times, the Penglai Sect was the second largest Spirit Plant Sect, only next to our Cyan Origin Sect."

He pondered for a while before speaking again:

"However, even if all the Spirit Plants here, including that Penglai Immortal Tree, were combined, they wouldn’t compare to your Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree and that peculiar Black Vine."

"To be honest, I didn’t expect you to be able to cultivate and plant the Seven Marvelous Treasure Tree again. With such heaven-defying talent, it’s a wonder you haven’t been struck by lightning..."

When Qin Ming heard this, why did it sound like the other party wasn’t exactly praising him?

Gradually.

Until he reached the end of the Spirit Medicine Garden, a lush bamboo forest appeared.

Qin Ming recognized this as Tier Three Jade Simurgh Bamboo, though its rarity was slightly less than the Void Spirit Bamboo he had planted on Wangyue Island.

Passing through the bamboo path, this place revealed a tranquil and elegant rustic charm.

Before him were several simple huts, minimalistic in their design.

In front of the houses was a small lake, spanning dozens of acres, filled with lotus flowers. Numerous fish, shrimp, and waterfowl swam within, embodying a serene, scenic beauty.

The Spiritual Qi environment here was exceptionally rich, remarkably reaching a Tier Four High-Grade level.

It was unclear how the Spirit Vein had spread to this place from the golden tree crown.

Qin Ming had his eyes opened.

True Monarch Dragon Wood led Qin Ming into this secluded farmhouse and then said to a room:

"Tian’er, we have esteemed guests. Brew a pot of Spirit Mulberry Bitter Tea on behalf of your master."

"Yes, Master!"

Creaaak!

The door opened, and out ran a little girl of four or five years, with two small black braids and a pair of lively, dark eyes.

Qin Ming slightly exerted the Yin Yang Profound Mirror Divine Technique, scanning her from head to toe.

He saw that she was brimming with exuberant vitality, even stronger than the verdant life force inside many Nascent Soul Old Monsters!

Soon, this lush vitality formed a lotus shape in Qin Ming’s vision!

’This...’

’This is actually a Spirit Plant?!’

"It has developed sentience and undergone Spirit Plant Transformation?!"

Qin Ming instantly saw through the mystery.

The girl called Tian Ling’er was exceptionally obedient.

She deftly fetched Spirit Tea leaves from a tea jar inside the house and then ran outside to a Spiritual Spring to retrieve Spiritual Spring Water.

Using special Spirit Wood to boil water and brew tea, the brewing utensils were a black, earthy pottery pot.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat, seeing the little girl’s obedient demeanor, hopped down and approached her, saying:

"Why don’t I help you?"

Tian Ling’er wasn’t shy, her face blossomed into a radiant smile, and she said crisply, "Thank you for your kindness. I can handle it! Would this elder please rest and wait for a moment."

"It will be ready soon."

She was not surprised by the mouse’s ability to speak.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat looked puzzled, sniffing around Tian Ling’er as if wondering why there was a scent of Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine.

It didn’t leave, quietly lying beside her, watching Tian Ling’er burning incense and brewing tea.

From the moment Qin Ming entered the house, his attention inadvertently focused on the little girl.
