Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 420 - 383: News of the Cold Crow Ascendant and Encounter on the Road (Part 3)
"If we really fight head-on with the demonic path, the final outcome will likely be a fate of destruction, not to mention that the foundation of Xuanqing Temple, accumulated over many years, would be a wedding dress for others..."
After hearing Han Yuan’s words, Qin Ming nodded, lost in thought.
"To speak of real tragedy, it must be the lower-tier cultivators of Great Zhou. Over the past three years, several families and Immortal Cities have completely fallen, countless cultivators have become the souls of demon soldiers through blood sacrifice."
"If it weren’t for the Guardian Dao Alliance stepping in to assist, Great Zhou might not even exist today."
Gao Feng added from the side.
"However, this invasion by the demonic path into Great Zhou has also given rise to some notorious individuals."
"For instance, the Li Clan’s Clan Leader Li Haoran from Immortal Tomb Mountain, with his late-stage Golden Core cultivation, the Confucian Secret Technique he practices is extremely suppressive to the demonic path. He once single-handedly killed a late-stage Golden Core elder from the Yin Demon Sect."
"This event greatly boosted the morale of the cultivators from Great Zhou."
"Since then, the Li Family has been invited to join the Guardian Dao Alliance. It’s said that Li Haoran was personally summoned by Master Lihuo for guidance and was bestowed with a valuable treasure, causing envy among many."
Qin Ming silently processed this information, surprised at how much had happened during his short seclusion.
Having gathered enough information, he bid farewell to the three people and took a stroll around the market, purchasing some spiritual materials.
After leaving the Five Elements Mountain Market, he didn’t linger and was planning to return to the Spirit Field.
But just halfway through, he saw a dark gold dragon-engraved carriage flying towards him. The carriage was semi-open, with only a shaded canopy on top.
Inside were three young cultivators in black profound robes, exuding the mana aura of mid to late Foundation Establishment.
But Qin Ming, with just a distant glance, was immediately startled!
His Divine Thought, comparable to that of the Nascent Soul Stage, far surpassed that of ordinary cultivators.
Such hidden methods naturally appeared ineffective before him.
Just one glance revealed that the three had disguised their true cultivation.
He then secretly used the Eye of Destruction, and the conclusion left Qin Ming quite unsettled.
’They are actually three demonic cultivators at the Golden Core Stage!’
’Unexpectedly, they’ve come all the way here.’
Qin Ming was now using the True Demon Illusion technique, disguising himself as Shopkeeper Lu, suppressing his cultivation to the late-stage Foundation Establishment.
Hence, he acted as if he knew nothing and was about to pass by the three.
Suddenly.
The dark gold carriage stopped abruptly, blocking Qin Ming’s path.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist."
"Could you tell us if the Five Elements Mountain Market is nearby?"
The lean young cultivator sitting on the far left suddenly cupped his fists at Qin Ming and inquired.
The other party wore a smile, appearing completely harmless.
Qin Ming returned the greeting, pointed towards the northwest, and calmly replied, "It’s a thousand miles in this direction."
"Thank you very much!" the lean robed cultivator responded with a smile, then turned to the burly, rough-looking cultivator in the middle and said, "Brother Qiu, after such a long journey, we’re finally about to arrive."
Qin Ming wanted no part in this matter, so he cupped his hands again, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way."
"Hmm." The rough-looking man gave a cold, indifferent nod.
Immediately, Qin Ming transformed into a green rainbow, leaving without looking back, disappearing into the horizon in an instant.
Just moments after Qin Ming left.
The lean cultivator’s expression suddenly changed to a mischievous smile and asked in confusion, "Brother Qiu, why didn’t you kill that kid just now?"
"Using the Soul Searching Technique on him might have yielded some useful information for us."
"We’re not far from the market, and there are a lot of people around; it’s best to be a bit restrained, remember our main objective for this trip," Brother Qiu’s tone was indisputable.
"Ha! Brother Qiu, you’re absolutely right, congratulations on obtaining such a divine object as the ’Ten-Thousand-Year Cyan Spirit Saliva.’"
"Who would have thought that such a small family in Great Zhou was hiding a Tier Four Spiritual Object."
"By the way, do you think the news is true? Is it possible that Cold Crow Ascendant really fled to Great Jin?"
The lean cultivator initially complimented him, then seemed to remember something.
"Junior Brother Meng, this news came from several fellow sect members, how could it be false?"
"Hehe, it’s said that it was Senior Sister Lan Bing who made the move at the time."
"Her ’Ice Soul Demon Light’ Divine Technique has already been cultivated to the Great Success Realm, almost costing Cold Crow Ascendant his life."
"If not for this event, we would still be in the dark. Who knew that after all these years, Senior Sister Lan merely in seclusion, managed to cultivate even such a heaven-defying Divine Technique."
"In the future, she will probably surpass Senior Brother Jiangg Yuan."
The square-faced cultivator on the far right said with a bit of envy in his expression.
