Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 424 - 385: Shifting Circumstances
On Muxia Mountain, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat advancing to Tier Three Late-stage Demon King also astonished all the demons in the Fox Race Sacred Land. ππ«ππ²π¨πππππ―ππΉ.ππ¨πΊ
This was truly a grand event not seen in a hundred years!
The emergence of another Half-Transformed Great Demon within the Fox Race is a natural deterrent to the nearby Demon Race, a symbol of the strength of their group.
A crowd of Demon Beasts pointed enviously at the main peak of the Holy Mountain.
Not every Demon Beast can attain such a rare opportunity of transforming from mortal to saint.
The path of advancement for Demon Beasts is fraught with challenges. Every time they advance to a Small Realm, they must endure the trial of Thunder Tribulation. Not to mention, the Thunder Tribulation of a Great Realm is several times stronger than that of the Human Race, making the cultivation path even more difficult.
Therefore, every step forward for a Demon Beast requires not only formidable cultivation strength but also some luck and opportunity.
Only with the blessing of fortune can one hope to withstand the tempering of Thunder Tribulation.
Yue Lingyan glanced into the distance, her vermilion lips moved as she said to Qin Ming beside her, "Fellow Daoist Qin is truly generous. I think that set of Five Elements Command Banners must have a great origin, right?"
"To be able to form the Four Symbols Array, gathering Five Elements Spiritual Qi in one, invoking Celestial Thunder and Earth Fire, enduring Thunder Tribulation, its power almost rivals that of a Spiritual Treasure."
"Fellow Daoist Lingyan overpraises. This item is indeed a significant opportunity for the Heaven-Devouring Rat, acquired accidentally from a demonic cultivator."
"Itβs said that the demonic cultivator also obtained it from a Secret Realm."
"Initially, there was only one Vermilion Bird Banner. Later, the Heaven-Devouring Rat broke the restriction and obtained the full method of refining, after which it gathered the spiritual materials."
"I simply refined the remaining four command flags for it. I didnβt expect the artifactβs power to be so unexpected."
Qin Ming explained with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Qin truly spares no expense for his Spirit Pet!"
"Even this set of artifacts, I would quite covet." Yue Lingyan said jokingly.
Qin Ming truly considers the Heaven-Devouring Rat as a companion.
Unlike other Human Race who enslave demon beasts.
This is one of the reasons why she is so willing to befriend Qin Ming, a Human Race Cultivator.
Inside the cave.
After the Heaven-Devouring Rat broke through, it transformed into a streak of spiritual light, quickly flying to Qin Mingβs side.
With a proud and spirited demeanor, it said with a grin, "Master! Iβve finally broken through to Late-stage Tier Three!"
"Hmm, not bad, you didnβt waste the many Spiritual Objects I gave you." Qin Ming nodded with a smile.
After the Heaven-Devouring Rat advanced to become a Half-Transformed Demon King, it additionally enhanced his strength significantly.
Now its power has greatly increased, and with the Five Elements Command Banner in hand, it stands out among the Demon Kings.
Even an ordinary Golden Core Perfection Cultivator may not be its match.
"Little girl congratulates Brother Mouse on his breakthrough!"
"By the way, after you break through to the Half-Transformation Realm, arenβt you able to initially transform into a human form?"
"Brother Mouse, could you show the little girl?"
"Why do you still look the same as before, with no major changes?" asked the Little Silver Fox with a puzzled expression.
She has an innate desire to transform into a true human form, even half transformation is something she envies greatly.
Because her mother, Yue Lingyan, is a great example, being a rarely seen fairy in the Human Realm.
Qin Ming also felt curious and cast an inquiring glance at the Heaven-Devouring Rat.
Hearing such a question from the Little Silver Fox.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat stammered for a long time before awkwardly chuckling, "Hehe! I prefer my current form, so I wonβt transform into a human yet."
"Not quite human or demon, Iβll wait until I can completely transform into a human form."
Qin Ming immediately understood there was something fishy, suspecting that its transformed appearance was not handsome enough, or there were other unspeakable reasons... afraid that the Little Silver Fox would be disappointed and look down on it, and so on.
He knows the troublesome nature of the Heaven-Devouring Rat too well.
However, he did not expose or reveal its background.
Subsequently, seeing the Heaven-Devouring Rat so delighted, Qin Ming rewarded it with some Jade Qilin Wine and Spirit Fruit delicacies.
He let it, the Little Silver Fox, Profound Water Crocodile, and Silver-winged Frost Bee, go to the Little Spirit Realm to celebrate.
Qin Ming himself followed Yue Lingyan, who invited him into her Cave Mansion for in-depth conversation.
"Time really flies!"
"The situation in the Cultivation Realm has changed significantly over the past few years!"
"Fellow Daoist Qin can remain true to himself, diligently farming on Five Elements Mountain, all personally handled, this perseverance is truly rare." Yue Lingyan extended her jade-like soft hands, pouring him a cup of spirit wine.
"This is Monkey Wine given by Demon Saint Gushan to me, said to be brewed using various vermilion fruits over five hundred years, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon on an ancient tree."
"Although it doesnβt compare to Fellow Daoist Qinβs Jade Qilin Wine, the taste indeed has its unique charm."
Qin Ming took the spirit wine and tasted it, a warm current flowed through his throat, crisp and intense, followed by rich spiritual qi spreading through his limbs.
He immediately brightened his eyes, "Truly good wine! Though not as memorable in flavor as Jade Qilin Wine, the effects of this Monkey Wine surpass it."
"Fellow Daoist Qin is truly talented, not only outstanding in Alchemy and Spirit Plant Mastery, but unexpectedly having unique insights in the art of spirit wine brewing as well, which I admire." Yue Lingyan praised.
"However, with Fellow Daoist Qin being so exceptional, wouldnβt you consider finding a Dao companion?"
Qin Ming did not expect Yue Lingyan to ask such a question.
But observing her calm demeanor, sipping spirit wine as usual, it seemed to be just a casual inquiry.
