Night Without End
Chapter 1358 - 574: Suddenly a Father (Part 2)
Later, Cui Chongxiao’s abdomen swelled, and he gave birth to a Nascent Soul.
This news was too explosive; the entire Cui Family was struck with disbelief inside and out.
Qin Ming initially thought the Magic Potion would fall into the hands of Cui Chonghe, aiding him in restoring his Taoist power. However, the Cui Family’s great dragon "unhesitatingly" consumed it himself.
This incident naturally also alarmed the sect of Cui Chongxiao. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Not only did several of his senior brothers rush over upon hearing the news, but even his rarely-seen master, Xi Tian, appeared.
It is known that one of the two heroes of Esoteric Buddhism, standing alongside Chu Canglan, is currently trying to step into the Seventh Realm without wanting to alter his life form.
"What happened afterward?" Qin Ming asked.
The talking sparrow marveled, saying, "Cui Chongxiao was furious. Under his master’s guidance, he temporarily refined the Divine Infant into an External Incarnation."
Qin Ming teased, saying, "Quite a trick."
Undoubtedly, anyone who heard the news felt as if struck by "Heavenly Thunder," finding it utterly unbelievable.
Cui Chongxiao was delighted to be a father, yet too embarrassed to face people, almost exploding with rage.
Who is Xi Tian? An unparalleled Ancestor Master of Esoteric Buddhism, leading in pioneering fields, and destined to become a True God, naturally wouldn’t let it go. He then had people investigate deeply.
It must be said, his Divine Skills were extensive, discovering that such fruits were produced in the Blood Forest.
He wanted to uncover the truth but was ultimately shocked. He couldn’t investigate further because he learned that an unparalleled strongman from the Seventh Realm might have picked that kind of fruit.
Currently, he hadn’t reached that level yet.
"This was an accident, an evil potion from the Outer Domain, and Chongxiao was unfortunately hit."
This was not an isolated case. It was reported that someone in the heavenly realm also suffered.
Qin Ming showed a different expression, realizing indeed there were kindred spirits.
Following this incident, the prices of various Medicinal Herbs in the Yujing Territory plummeted, with many people hesitant to purchase.
Not until the Golden List made its final appearance, indicating how to distinguish this kind of Magic Potion, did the atmosphere of unease subside and the prices return to normal.
"The Golden List has completely... fallen into slumber." This was another important piece of news from the talking sparrow.
Qin Ming asked, "What happened to the Blood Immortal, Longevity Residence, and Purification House?"
He was fair in distributing Magic Potions to the Cui Family, with the other families naturally on the list too.
The talking sparrow said, "Initially, there was infighting and rivalry among them, ultimately ending up in the hands of the Grandmaster. Someone also formed a Nascent Soul, creating quite a stir."
As for what happened afterward, that remained unknown as the higher-ups of several gray organizations were likely enraged and tightly sealed off subsequent information.
The talking sparrow stood proud, its gem-like eyes gleaming, waiting for praise. It felt the mission this time was completed perfectly, beautifully.
Qin Ming did not withhold praise, saying, "Not bad, come to my courtyard after dinner."
He began to tally the rewards this time; failing to sell Magic Potions, he directly seized 1.5 million Ten Thousand Day Gold, and after distributing a portion to Tang Yushang, he still had a huge sum of 900,000.
Qin Ming felt dreamy, having never been so wealthy, and it seemed he could become rich without selling Magic Potions...
Secondly, there was the radiant ascension rain; he had collected quite a lot, and although much was consumed by the Jade Mirror at the last moment, it was still sufficient.
Then, the Longevity Token appeared in his hand, with an ancient and vintage design, which was also a significant acquisition. Qin Ming intuitively felt that this was an artifact with considerable age.
He immediately resonated, quickly learning that it was the key to entering and exiting Longevity Ridge, corresponding to nine super Arrays.
Normally, even if outsiders obtained this Longevity Token, it was worthless, as using it required special techniques and complex Spells, etc.
Qin Ming smiled; through resonance, none of these were problems.
He had learned the secrets within, mastered the method to activate it, and could enter silently.
As for the so-called radiant ascension rain phenomena, they were all intentionally stirred up to attract various parties to rush in as experimental materials.
"Unless absolutely necessary, I still won’t go."
Qin Ming mused that it was a wonderful place that could nourish the Body and strengthen the Spirit, but it was guarded by an old monster, extremely dangerous.
He didn’t know if holding the Jade Plate and going through those secret paths could silently intrude into the nourishing land.
He shook his head, feeling there was no need to risk it at the moment.
"Hmm? There’s a situation." Qin Ming continued his resonance, delving deeper, sensing very fragmented, fuzzy, ancient emotional fragments.
"This..." His eyes widened instantly, quite shocked. Indeed, there were nine Longevity Tokens, one of which was in his hand, but its true origin and history were unrelated to Longevity Ridge initially.
"Could it be related to the Supreme Longevity Land beside the headquarters of Wangsheng yong?" Qin Ming pondered.
Regrettably, the past emotions had been mostly worn away over time. Time could kill all strongmen and smooth out all traces.
Moreover, Qin Ming vaguely felt that an extraordinary powerhouse might have forcefully erased the oldest emotional traces with Great Magical Power.
His expression turned serious, saying, "Could it be that someone is guarding against this special method of resonance? That must at least be the work of an Eighth Realm individual."
He realized that this Longevity Token had great significance and might be of great use in the future, even if it served no immediate purpose.
Qin Ming assessed his final type of spoil: three Bodies, lifelike, perhaps still capable of coming back to life.
The two men and one woman all had their eyes closed, showing no signs of consciousness, but their hearts would slightly throb once or twice within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, very faint, but the beats genuinely existed.
Qin Ming whispered, "Longevity... holds a lethal allure, prompting the upper echelons of one powerful civilization after another to research such things."
