Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 329 - 308: Reward

Qin Ming gained quite a bounty from slaying those demonic cultivators this time.

"Truly, it’s like ten years without a business, and then one big business lasts ten years."

"The moment I came out, I hit a big jackpot."

Killing three in one go, I took off immediately.

He already took stock on the way; just from the blood pearls of Qi Cultivation Demon Cultivators and Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivators, he gained thousands at once, along with three Golden Core level blood pearls.

These would be more than enough to significantly enhance the growth of the Lifebound Spirit Plant, Yin Yang Profound Vine.

Besides.

He also obtained a Tier Three High-Grade Artifact, the Black Flame Evil Feather Fan, from Yangg Jian, and the black steel fork from the black-faced man, which was also a rather exceptional Tier Three High-Grade Artifact.

"Master, may I have this black steel fork to use?"

"I happen to lack a handy artifact."

Heaven-Devouring Rat seemed quite interested in it and asked Qin Ming for it.

Qin Ming was quite surprised to hear this. Since he found no substantial use for it, he tossed it over.

Heaven-Devouring Rat happily took the black steel fork, swung it around for a bit with a very proper and imposing air.

Qin Ming also noticed that the material of this black steel fork seemed somewhat peculiar, as it could withstand a punch from him without breaking, indicating its sturdiness.

Moreover, this Heaven-Devouring Rat was naturally sensitive to treasures, likely scheming something again.

It then returned to the Spirit Beast Bag and began refining the artifact.

The blood jade bracelet from the seductive female cultivator was also a Tier Three High-Grade Artifact, and the black bone umbrella, named Bone-Eroding Umbrella, was a Tier Three Middle-Grade Artifact for both offense and defense.

However, it was pierced by the Divine Technique of the Profound Water Crocodile, but it could still be used after repair.

The most valuable assets of the three Golden Core Demon Cultivators were naturally their Lifebound Artifacts and their Golden Cores.

Apart from these.

Qin Ming rummaged through their storage pouches, gathering hundreds of High-Grade Spirit Stones and tens of thousands of Middle-Grade Spirit Stones.

The rest were a plethora of Demonic Cultivation Technique secrets, pills, and spiritual materials, far too many to count.

The Yin Demon Sect, being an Upper Sect among the Six Demonic Sects and a Nascent Soul Sect, with its members being Elder-level figures, was no less than three plump sheep.

...

Three days later.

Qin Ming once again arrived at Beast King Valley.

When he got there, he saw the surroundings of the mountains in disarray, seemingly also having suffered an ambush by the demonic path.

However, with two Golden Core Ancestors guarding Beast King Valley, its foundation was far superior to the Golden Kui Sect, so resisting the demonic assault wasn’t too difficult.

Soon after.

Two beams of rainbow light flashed from within the valley and stopped in front of Qin Ming.

Pei Qing and Luu Xiao personally came out to greet him.

"Hehehe! Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Qin for advancing to the mid-stage of the Golden Core, greatly increasing your cultivation, taking another step in the Immortal Dao."

"Fellow Daoist Qin is truly a genius among the Golden Core stage, possessing three Demon King-level beast pets."

"It really puts us at Beast King Valley to shame! Hahaha!"

The events of the past few days naturally had been grasped by the two old ancestors.

They did not expect Qin Ming to have already advanced to the mid-stage of the Golden Core, with his cultivation and power becoming more unfathomable.

Upon seeing Qin Ming this time, their attitudes had slightly shifted, with a new-found reverence for strength.

Considering he could slay three Golden Core Demon Cultivators from an Upper Demon Sect, the two certainly weren’t his opponents.

Qin Ming just smiled lightly, "It was merely a coincidence, done in passing."

After a round of pleasantries.

The three arrived within Beast King Valley.

Pei Qing and Luu Xiao hosted a banquet for Qin Ming, offering him Spirit Wine.

"Come, Fellow Daoist Qin, we both toast to you."

"If not for you, Wuu Country would have really faced peril."

"My junior brother and I both admit we could never match those three demon envoys."

"We owe it to Fellow Daoist Qin’s intervention."

The three then raised their glasses and drank in one go.

Between the clinking of glasses and chatter, Qin Ming and the two talked about the situation within the Cultivation Realm.

Touching upon this topic.

Pei Qing and Luu Xiao became serious-faced.

"The situation of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm Human Race is indeed precarious!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Who could have anticipated the ghosts from the Tai Lake Ruins would collude with the Demon Beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."

"This is something no one could have predicted."

"The Cyan-faced Poison Flood Dragon and the Golden Toad Ancestor’s strength are beyond what we cultivators can contend with."

Qin Ming nodded gently and then waved his hand, causing five bags to appear on the ground.

He then turned to the two and said, "Here, as promised, is five hundred pounds of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice for the Little Spirit Realm lease."

Upon hearing this, both Pei Qing and Luu Xiao exchanged glances, and Pei Qing’s face turned solemn before addressing Qin Ming:

"If not for Fellow Daoist Qin’s righteous intervention, Wuu Country might have been in great peril."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you must allow us to give something in return."

With that said, he opened one of the bags, and a stream of emerald light instantly flowed out, accompanied by a rich fragrance permeating the air.

"After all, this Spirit Rice can enhance Golden Core Stage cultivation, something only Fellow Daoist Qin is capable of cultivating in the entire Southern Wilderness."

Pei Qing opened one of the bags, causing a wave of emerald light to appear, emitting a rich glow.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qin, for fulfilling your promise of five hundred pounds of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice."

Both Pei Qing and Luu Xiao shared a look.

Then.

Pei Qing, wearing a solemn expression, said to Qin Ming:

"Fellow Daoist Qin, both of us have been considering your contribution, and we’ve come to a consensus."

"We would like to offer to you what was promised."

Upon hearing this, even Pei Qing couldn’t help but let out a dry laugh, "Hehe! You don’t need to provide spirit stones or resources."

"The Little Spirit Realm is yours."

"Consider this as our token of appreciation toward Fellow Daoist Qin."

With that, Pei Qing took a moment, stopped his spirit control, retrieved a Spirit Contract, and handed it ceremoniously to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming, after a brief thought, accepted the Spirit Contract without declining further.

"Then I thank you, fellow Daoists," Qin Ming said with a smile.

He thought to himself, "I didn’t do this just to receive unearned rewards, but had Qin Daoist not acted so righteously, Wuu Country would have truly been in trouble."

"Please destroy this Spirit Contract."

Pei Qing and Luu Xiao were taken aback that Qin Ming would say such a thing, clearly understanding his intention to remain in Wuu Country.

They both smiled dryly in acknowledgment and stated. "As long as Fellow Daoist Qin is in Wuu Country, we are indeed comforted."

"We cannot thank you enough."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, no need to stand on ceremony," Qin Ming replied with a smile.

But at this moment, Pei Qing and Luu Xiao exchanged a glance.

Then.

Pei Qing gravely said to Qin Ming:

Qin Ming was lost in thought after hearing it.

He understood that the two old ancestors of Beast King Valley, offering the Little Spirit Realm, showed their token of gratitude because they realized the importance of his strength to Wuu Country.

They earnestly hoped that Qin Ming would remain in Wuu Country, especially as they faced future cultivation realm crises.

They used every means and played their cards well in hopes that Qin Ming would stay in Wuu Country permanently.

"I’ve just come here to experience the world, I won’t stay in Wuu Country long-term."

"But I will certainly visit occasionally in the future."

"Since you two are willing, I’ll gratefully accept the Spirit Contract."

Pei Qing and Luu Xiao didn’t expect Qin Ming to say such words, realizing he saw through their intentions without mentioning it.

"Now, all other resources are unnecessary," Pei Qing chuckled.

"This Little Spirit Realm now belongs to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"It is now part of the Wuxia Mountain vicinity."

He handed the rewritten Spirit Contract to Qin Ming with great care.

Qin Ming gave it a moment’s thought and no longer refused, accepting the Spirit Contract immediately.

"Thank you very much, fellow Daoists." Qin Ming said with a smile.

It just remains to be seen if there’s a way to take it with me... "
