Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 188 - 179: Advancing to a Tier Two Late Stage Great Demon

Chapter 188: Chapter 179: Advancing to a Tier Two Late Stage Great Demon

The Profound Water Crocodile nudged Qin Ming, mentally communicating that it was sworn in loyalty to him, ready to fight wherever directed!

Qin Ming chuckled. He was quite reassured about this, as he could tell from the Profound Water Crocodile’s fearless behavior facing the overwhelming Double-Pupil Demon Ape.

Moreover, Qin Ming had used the Beast Taming Technique on it and signed a Spirit Contract, so there was no possibility of rebellion or master betrayal.

Afterwards.

"Time to consider, it’s about time I visit Vast Sea Immortal City."

"Apart from gathering spiritual materials and seeking information."

"I should start engaging with the Pill Furnace Pavilion over there as well."

"Hmm, while keeping most of my cards concealed, slightly revealing something to acquire more resource information."

"Now with the Profound Water Crocodile rivalling the Double-Pupil Demon Ape, coupled with the Silver-winged Frost Bee, as long as I don’t go against Golden Core Ancestors or encounter Tier Three Demon Kings, I can traverse the world freely."

Qin Ming pondered for a moment, secretly making a decision.

Then, using the pill formula provided by Su Yuqing, he refined some Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Pills, which are immensely beneficial for mana growth in the Late-stage Foundation Establishment.

With these spirit pills, a few Rice Flower Spirit Fish, and the last four jars of Spirit Fire Wine, Qin Ming prepared to set off towards Vast Sea Immortal City.

Before leaving, he gave Wu Jiang a reminder.

"Ah? Fellow Daoist Qin, you’re leaving the island?"

"Yes, firstly I have some matters that I must deal with, secondly I want to see the external developments."

"Then I wish Fellow Daoist Qin a safe journey. Given Fellow Daoist Qin’s cultivation, coupled with spirit pets, there shouldn’t be any problem."

"Right, your Five-Colored Spirit Rice is planted well, it seems you put in a lot of effort." Qin Ming suddenly said with a smile.

Wu Jiang scratched his scalp, smiling: "Hehe, it’s alright, thanks to Fellow Daoist Qin’s planting experience, otherwise I wouldn’t have succeeded in the first planting."

"This batch has a rather low survival rate, but I guarantee I’ll be more proficient next time, and when the Spirit Rice matures, I’ll send the Spirit Field rent and tax altogether to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Hehe! No rush, no rush, your perseverance until now is commendable, keep it up." Qin Ming patted Wu Jiang’s shoulder.

...

Qin Ming summoned the Silver-winged Frost Bee, bringing along the Profound Water Crocodile, then opened the Array and left Wangyue Island.

The moment he left the island.

Qin Ming felt as if a lifetime had passed, the surrounding of Wangyue Lake was still as peaceful as ever.

The demon beasts, unless occasionally passing through, showed little interest in this corner.

He rode on the Silver-winged Frost Bee, transformed into a silver streak of light, and vanished into the sky.

Along the way, Qin Ming’s gaze fell on the retreating landscape below.

The scope of Wangyue Lake was still alright.

But after traveling some distance, he saw that Spirit Nest Islands were now filled with demon beasts.

When Qin Ming flew over Celestial River Market, below was already devastated, the once bustling market no longer existing, instead becoming a nest for unnamed demon beasts.

Dense groups of demon beasts were nesting and breeding on the islands of Celestial River Market.

It seemed sensing the Human Race Cultivator flying overhead, deep within Celestial River Market, a terrifying Tier Two Great Demon lifted its head and glanced towards Qin Ming.

But upon seeing Qin Ming riding on the Silver-winged Frost Bee, the killing intent it had just emanated instantly subsided, dispelling the thought of pursuit.

The 72 Island Loose Alliance, which had once united the islands to establish a defense against demon beasts, had also been impacted beyond recognition.

’Alas! It seems the beast tide has invaded the core area of the Spirit Nest Islands.’ Qin Ming watched the spirit islands now occupied by demon beasts, guessing the situation.

’This beast tide erupted so fiercely, the damage to the Cultivation Realm is immeasurable.’

’What is the reason behind it?’

’The rapid reproduction of demon beasts is just one factor.’

’Could it be that not just one Tier Three Demon King was born in the Beast Roar Mountain Range?’

’Or even, a Demon King has already reached Tier Three Mid-Stage, dominating and ready to unify the Beast Roar Mountain Range.’

"At present, it seems only these possibilities can compress the living space for other beast groups, resulting in such a large-scale beast tide."

’The situation looks far graver than I imagined.’

Now across the Spirit Nest Islands, everywhere Qin Ming could see, on land or underwater, there were groups of demon beasts roaming.

Just during Qin Ming’s flight, less than fifteen minutes had passed, he already encountered several clueless avian demon beasts, all turned into blood pearls in his storage pouch.

Suddenly!

Qin Ming’s Divine Thought detected, directly five miles ahead, that a massive Dharma Ship was racing fast towards Vast Sea Immortal City.

The mast of the Dharma Ship was hoisted with the flag of the 72 Island Loose Alliance.

Qin Ming’s eyes lit up, withdrawing the silver wings into the Spirit Beast Bag, then unfolding his body technique, transforming into a blue Escape Light, swiftly heading towards the alliance ship.

Only a few breaths of time.

Qin Ming arrived in front of the Dharma Ship, the cultivators on duty on the deck saw a Foundation Establishment Stage Escape Light approaching, feeling threatened.

"Don’t act recklessly! It’s Elder Qin from Wangyue Island!"

Just then.

A Qi Cultivation Perfection-stage cultivator captain raised his hand to signal, stopping everyone’s tense actions.

Qin Ming’s figure flickered and appeared in front of the cultivator, asked in confusion: "You recognize me?"

The Qi Cultivation Perfection cultivator respectfully saluted Qin Ming, then excitedly replied: "Reporting to Elder Qin, over two years ago, I also happened to visit Wangyue Lake under Elder Zhou Ping’s leadership."

"If it weren’t for back then, Elder Qin’s beast pet showed great power, crushing the Thunder Roc Great Demon, we wouldn’t be able to stand here talking today."

"Oh~ I see!" Qin Ming suddenly realized, then asked, "By the way, where is Elder Zhou Ping? Is he on board now?"

The captain responded with a melancholy expression, hesitating to speak.

Seeing his reaction, Qin Ming already guessed roughly.

"Alas! Elder Zhou Ping has perished."

Just then.

A familiar voice reached Qin Ming’s ears, followed by a blue Escape Light flying out from the cabin on the ship, landing in front of him, revealing the person’s face.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, it’s been a long time!"

"It’s truly rare to see you! Is everything alright lately?"

Facing Qin Ming, the Vice Alliance Leader Lim Yuanqing of the 72 Island Loose Alliance, greeted him warmly with cupped hands.

"Vice Alliance Leader Lim, long time no see."

"How did Fellow Daoist Zhou perish? Could it be..."

Qin Ming returned the salute, couldn’t help but ask.

Moreover, watching Lim Yuanqing’s cultivation, he had broken through to Late-stage Foundation Establishment, but the mana aura on him was extremely unstable, his once vigorous spirit now bore traces of fatigue, and his temples began to show grey.

Qin Ming could tell at a glance, Lim Yuanqing must have consumed some Tier-Breaking Pill, trading away essence and longevity to forcibly elevate his cultivation realm.

Yet this way, it would produce irreversible obstacles in reaching subsequent realms.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, with your current prestige, you may simply call me fellow Daoist, do not embarrass me."

"Please step inside the room, Lim will explain each reason to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Alas! Not only has Elder Zhou Ping perished, even Alliance Leader Huoo Qianqiu has fallen..."
