Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 325 - 304: Mid-stage Golden Core

After returning to the Little Spirit Realm.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat spoke to Qin Ming: "Master, on the way back, I smelled an unusual scent."

"Oh?" Qin Ming said in surprise.

"It seems to be the Demonic Qi on a Demonic Cultivator, but it’s too far away, so I’m not sure about the amount." The Heaven-Devouring Rat said.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming fell into thought. Since even it noticed, there’s a high chance it’s true.

"Just as I suspected."

"The Six Demonic Sects finally can’t hold back anymore.

...

The great changes within the Cultivation Realm also made him feel an inexplicable pressure once again.

Only by being strong oneself can one better survive in this complex and ever-changing chaotic world.

After that, Qin Ming resumed his days of farming and cultivating.

More than two months passed.

Qin Ming walked towards his dozens of acres of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice fields.

In the Spirit Field, five golden lines appeared in his sight:

[Name]: Jade Emperor Spirit Rice [Entry]: Leaf of Space-Time X10 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Jade Emperor Spirit Rice [Entry]: Abundant Lifespan X10 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Jade Emperor Spirit Rice [Entry]: Mana Spring X5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Jade Emperor Spirit Rice [Entry]: Qi Blood Spring X5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Jade Emperor Spirit Rice [Entry]: Soul Power Spring X5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

Staring at this large field of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice before him, the joy of a bountiful harvest welled up spontaneously.

Next, he began breaking open the bamboo one by one to start harvesting the Spirit Rice.

As one by one, the emerald, jewel-like Jade Emperor Spirit Rice was collected, five blue entry leaves also appeared in Qin Ming’s Sea of Consciousness.

Half a day later.

After all the Jade Emperor Spirit Rice was harvested, Qin Ming took out his Great Dipper Spiritual Artifact to weigh, amassing a total of 1,500 pounds.

As Tier Three Spirit Rice, the yield is rare, so Qin Ming was already satisfied with such a harvest.

Excluding the 500 pounds of rent promised to Beast King Valley, the remaining Spirit Rice is enough for him to cultivate for a long time.

Moreover, in the coming decades, he can continue to plant many more.

"A great harvest, a great harvest!"

The Heaven-Devouring Rat stared at the bags of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice, its eyes shining.

Qin Ming wasn’t stingy, the day he harvested the Spirit Rice, he directly cooked twenty pounds of it.

At the moment the pot lid was lifted, a verdant mist surged from the stove, and the astonishing Spiritual Qi burst forth, the enticing aroma of Spirit Rice tantalizing the taste buds.

The nearby Heaven-Devouring Rat was nearly dumbfounded, involuntarily swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Qin Ming cooked a large pot for himself and also served a big bowl each for his three Spirit Pets.

He also sent the Heaven-Devouring Rat to the lake to fetch some Spirit Fish and Spirit Shrimp, and after simple cooking, they indulged together.

"Being with Master truly brings great fortune, mm... mmm... so delicious!"

"Second and Third Brother, have you seen any cultivator in the Cultivation Realm who would use Tier Three Spirit Rice to feed Spirit Pets?"

"This is the only one, cherish it while it lasts."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat said with its mouth full as it shoveled food into its mouth.

The Profound Water Crocodile and Silver-winged Frost Bee also busily devoured the food.

After eating a large pot of Jade Emperor Spirit Rice, Qin Ming felt an endless surge of Spiritual Qi about to erupt within his body.

He immediately sat cross-legged in front of his Lifebound Spirit Plant, the Yin Yang Profound Vine, and began cultivating the "Cyan Emperor Technique".

In an instant, the vigorous Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Rice was transformed, forming a verdant, mana rain above his Flawless Golden Core.

The torrential mana rain fell, all converging into his Flawless Golden Core.

However, what Qin Ming unexpectedly experienced was that the lingering spiritual power contained in the Tier Three Jade Emperor Spirit Rice was extremely potent.

Boom!

Because it was the first time he consumed so much, an even greater surge of pure spiritual energy came crashing in overwhelming waves.

Qin Ming felt as if he was about to be overwhelmed and burst by the vast, boundless spiritual energy.

He quickly initiated a Circulation to guide and transform this astounding Spiritual Qi.

At this moment, Qin Ming’s Cyan Emperor Wood Emperor Sacred Body reappeared, swiftly converting the Spiritual Qi into exceedingly pure Golden Core Mana.

His Mana Cultivation which was originally at the peak of the Early-stage Golden Core, was just a step away from breaking through.

Now, it was approaching the final pivotal moment.

Seven days later.

Once the medicinal power of the Jade Emperor Spirit Rice was completely absorbed and refined.

Qin Ming decisively used up the "Mana Spring" X5 entry.

A surging amount of mana suddenly gushed continuously from his Qi Sea Dantian. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Qin Ming felt as if he had transformed into an ancient tree, emanating a vibrant, verdant aura, with this aura continuously ascending.

The mana within the entry was entirely absorbed by the Flawless Golden Core.

In an instant.

Qin Ming’s Golden Core abruptly grew larger, and his mana subsequently surged explosively.

An even more powerful spiritual pressure rapidly expanded from his body.

Causing the Spiritual Qi within the Little Spirit Realm’s space to surge turbulently.

Everything fell into place naturally.

"Mid-stage Golden Core, achieved!"

"Congratulations, Master, felicitations, Master!"

The Heaven-Devouring Rat dashed over, grinning as it congratulated.

Qin Ming slowly opened his ink-black eyes, with a touch of verdant aura deep in his pupils, which gradually retracted and concealed.

From this point, his cultivation once again advanced by leaps and bounds, his mana more than doubled, comparable to that of a Late-stage Golden Core.

His Divine Thought also grew to match the perfection level of a Golden Core, capable of covering a range of 200 miles.

With the augmentation of the "Cyan Emperor Technique", his lifespan also increased by 120 years.

"However, all this is still not enough."

Qin Ming immediately used the "Qi Blood Spring" X5, "Soul Power Spring" X5, and "Abundant Lifespan" X10 entries.

His lifespan instantly increased by 500 years, reaching a colossal 2,800 years.

The True Qi Blood Spirit in his physical body increased once again.

His Divine Soul was further strengthened to an incredible level, almost on par with a Nascent Soul Old Monster.

Qin Ming, feeling the earth-shattering transformation within, showed an expression of excitement in his gaze.

He made a virtual grasp with his five fingers, causing twenty-one top-tier Artifact Wood Emperor Nails to appear in his hands, which began to traverse around the Little Spirit Realm as he infused mana.

"After breaking through to the Mid-stage Golden Core, the number of Wood Emperor Nails I can control increased again."

"The top-tier Artifact Wood Emperor Nails, having been nurtured in the Lifebound Spirit Plant for so long, absorbed a massive amount of Time Qi, are almost comparable to Artifacts nurtured for thousands of years."

"Who could withstand such a force?"

Qin Ming continued to plant the Wood Emperor Nails back within the Lifebound Spirit Plant for nurturing.

"My current strength has reached the level of a Late-stage Golden Core."

"If I use some trump cards, even a Late-stage Golden Core might not be my match."

"Moreover, with the Hook Jade Golden Light Mirror in hand, if I had to risk my lifespan, I could even contend against a Golden Core Perfection."

"However, it’s best not to encounter such circumstances. I still wish for longevity, and should cherish my lifespan."

"At least now, within the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, I am essentially unafraid of any Golden Core Cultivator."

"My decade of painstaking cultivation and farming here hasn’t been in vain."

"Very good, very good!"

For the following half-month, Qin Ming continued to consolidate his cultivation further.

...

Then.

Qin Ming planned to deliver the promised Jade Emperor Spirit Rice to Pei Qing and the others at Beast King Valley.

Thus, he once again took the Heaven-Devouring Rat out of the Little Spirit Realm and flew towards the Beast King Valley.
