Chapter 640: Chapter 511: Cloud-Fishing Elder
On Wangyue Island.
A gentle spring breeze brushed past, and a light drizzle fell.
Qin Ming, following what Qingyang the Old Demon had said, asked Hua Tianxiong to help him keep an eye out for information on two items.
He then entered the Little Spirit Realm.
He looked at the black vines of the Immortal Vine and subsequently fed it all the Blood Pearls he had collected from Thunder Accumulation Mountain.
Tens of thousands of Blood Pearls flew out, delighting Qin Ming’s Lifebound Spirit Plant. Countless black vines whirled around, absorbing all these Blood Pearls without missing a single one.
Although these Blood Pearls were from low-tier demonic cultivators, their vast quantity still allowed the Immortal Vine to grow considerably once again.
At the same time, the silver flowers on the tree blossomed even more, taking another significant step towards maturity:
[Name]: Immortal Vine [Entry]: Nascent Soul Dharma Power x (Maturity 61%)
[Name]: Immortal Vine [Entry]: Time Flies x (Maturity 62%)
[Name]: Immortal Vine [Entry]: Abundant Lifespan x (Maturity 62%)
Qin Ming then fed the High-Grade Spirit Stones he had acquired from the storage pouches of three Nascent Soul demonic cultivators to the Spirit Marrow Taisui, enhancing the Spirit Vein environment.
As the Spirit Marrow Taisui devoured tens of thousands of High-Grade Spirit Stones, it continuously excreted higher-grade Spirit Marrow, which was incessantly injected into the Spirit Vein within the Little Spirit Realm.
Suddenly.
The vast and boundless spiritual energy reverberated between the heavens and earth of the Little Spirit Realm, and the Spiritual Qi within became even more dense.
After a period of evolution.
The Spirit Vein in the Little Spirit Realm had astonishingly been elevated to the level of a Tier Four Top-Grade Spiritual Vein.
In such an environment, whether practicing or farming, results would be achieved with half the effort.
"Oh? The Spiritual Qi has increased again!"
"This Spiritual Qi environment... truly marvelous."
The Heaven-Devouring Rat and Little Silver Fox, busy in the Spirit Medicine Field, couldn’t help but look around, taking deep breaths to savor the dense Spiritual Qi.
Moreover.
Even the numerous Spirit Plants within the Little Spirit Realm sensed the revival of Spiritual Qi and all expressed jubilant excitement.
The growth status of the Spirit Plants was also becoming more vibrant and lively.
When Qin Ming approached the Demon Jujube Tree again, he found that the Source Demon Jujubes on it had all ripened:
[Name]: Source Demon Jujube [Entry]: Nascent Soul Qi Blood x5 (Maturity 100%, Ready for Harvest)
[Name]: Source Demon Jujube [Entry]: Time Flies x5 (Maturity 100%, Ready for Harvest)
[Name]: Source Demon Jujube [Entry]: Primordial Demonic Qi x5 (Maturity 100%, Ready for Harvest)
This Source Demon Jujube Tree could be considered a unique and ominous tree in the Little Spirit Realm.
Because beneath its roots, countless corpses of renowned Nascent Soul Demon Monarchs from the demonic path lay...
Qin Ming looked at the jujubes, exuding an overwhelming demonic aura. These ripe Tier Four Middle-Grade Demon Jujubes were about the size of a thumb.
The surface of the Demon Jujube was covered with a layer of blood-colored Demon Patterns, pitch-black and surrounded by flame-like striking demonic energy, almost tangible.
Just a glance, and it was clear this item was akin to a sacred presence in demonic cultivation.
Originally, there were several hundred of these Source Demon Jujubes; after ripening, they devoured each other’s demonic energy, leaving only a dozen or so.
"What is concentrated is the essence; I hope it won’t disappoint me."
Qin Ming lifted his hand and harvested all the Demon Jujubes from the tree.
In an instant, fifteen entry leaves appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.
After harvesting the Demon Jujubes, Qin Ming sat cross-legged under the Immortal Vine, his lifebound spirit plant, and began consuming the entries to cultivate.
He first used up five [Nascent Soul Qi Blood] entries.
Bang!
As the entry leaves vanished, an immense Qi Blood Power continuously flowed into the Demon Infant.
The physical strength of Qin Ming’s body, on top of his mid-stage Nascent Soul foundation, began climbing upward.
After the five [Nascent Soul Qi Blood] entries were exhausted, Qin Ming’s physical strength had increased significantly, equaling fifty years of arduous cultivation.
Immediately after.
Qin Ming also used five [Primordial Demonic Qi], fusing them together to obtain two higher-grade True Demon Qi.
He extracted the Celestial Demon Qi he had acquired from the Demon Ruins with the two True Demon Qi, and following the techniques in the "Demon-Monster True Power Technique," he began cultivating.
Before Qin Ming floated the black True Demon Qi and the gray Celestial Demon Qi.
If these two were to be revealed, who knows what kind of turmoil they might cause.
"Such pure Celestial Demon Qi and True Demon Qi are exceedingly rare, even in the Ancient Demon Realm and the Demon Realm."
"I wonder where Friend Qin’s demon technique is inherited from? Even I have never seen the likes of it."
Qingyang the Old Demon, seeing Qin Ming’s bizarre technique, couldn’t help but inquire.
Fellow Daoist Qin naturally couldn’t tell him that his "Demon-Monster True Power Technique" was derived from combining the supreme holy scriptures of the Demon-Monster races, the "Celestial Demon Refining Form Strategy" and the "Primordial Evil Seed Demon Scripture" into an entry.
He estimated that even if he said it, the other person wouldn’t believe him.
Because the creation of a cultivation technique is not something that can be easily achieved, let alone a top-tier technique.
Under the Immortal Vine Tree, as Qin Ming formed a peculiar hand seal, the Demon Infant opened its mouth and absorbed both the Celestial Demon Qi and True Demon Qi before it.
Qin Ming began to circulate according to the cultivation technique’s route, commencing the circulation.
The aura on the Demon Infant’s body underwent a massive change, and the two different true qi began to transform Qin Ming’s physique over and over.
While cultivating, Qin Ming took out a Source Demon Jujube and consumed one piece; the taste was nothing out of the ordinary.
Yet it contained an incomparably pure demonic qi, greatly boosting Qin Ming’s cultivation progress.
Inside the cave mansion, demonic qi surged and demon qi permeated.
Such bizarre phenomena caused even the Heaven-Devouring Rat and Little Silver Fox outside to gape in astonishment.
"What cultivation technique is the master practicing this time?"
"Seems to be getting stronger again."
The Heaven-Devouring Rat shaded its eyes with a paw, gazing at Qin Ming beneath the Immortal Vine Tree, not daring to approach too closely.
"Indeed, as my mother said, Elder Qin is a person of great fortune and will surely gain fame throughout the Human Realm in the future," Little Silver Fox also remarked.
Time passed slowly.
The days of closed-door cultivation flew by.
In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
The Demon-Monster Qi continuously interwove and fused on Qin Ming’s body, completely blending into one.
He finally succeeded in cultivating the second layer of the "Demon-Monster True Power Technique."
After absorbing the Source Demon Jujube, along with the Nascent Soul Qi Blood entry, and the Celestial Demon Qi and True Demon Qi.
His body refining cultivation advanced rapidly, sprinting from mid-stage Nascent Soul to later stage, with only one final step remaining to complete the breakthrough.
Qin Ming’s physique underwent a complete transformation, stepping into the second layer in an instant.
In the Little Spirit Realm.
His entire being transformed into a Vajra Demon Form, standing tall at eight hundred zhang.
The original form also changed dramatically, becoming a three-headed, six-armed vajra figure, with features resembling the Mountain Giant Ape.
Even more astonishingly, the Demon Light Treasure Wheel behind the three-headed, six-armed Vajra Demon Form increased from one to two wheels.
Qin Ming felt the surging demon power within him and was immensely excited.
"If I encounter that demonic cultivator’s Power Puppet Demon Form now, I reckon I could smash it with a single punch."
Then.
Qin Ming retracted his divine techniques and began to stabilize his body refining realm.
...
Outside Wangyue Island.
One day.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat was lying idly under the Spiritual Peach Tree, basking in the sun.
Little Silver Fox beside it was patiently weaving a Spirit Silk Jade Robe, obviously intended for the Heaven-Devouring Rat judging by its size.
"Well! It seems we have a visitor."
The Heaven-Devouring Rat’s powerful demon thought detected a Nascent Soul Level escape light heading toward Wangyue Island early on.
In just a few moments.
The surrounding space trembled violently, rippling outward.
A yellow dazzling light fell outside Wangyue Island, revealing an extremely plainly dressed elder, with slightly dark skin, appearing like an old peasant from the mortal world.
"I am the loose cultivator ’Cloud-Fishing Elder’ from Luoyun Creek, here to visit Fellow Daoist Qin..."
The elder stood in mid-air, cupped his hands, and transmitted his voice toward Wangyue Island.
As soon as he finished speaking, a clear-faced child in a white robe appeared in the void opposite him, gnawing on a piece of Spirit Ginseng.
"What business do you have with my master? He is currently in closed-door cultivation and is not convenient to meet visitors. If there’s anything, you can tell me."
The Heaven-Devouring Rat examined Cloud-Fishing Elder a few times and found that although this person was a loose cultivator, his cultivation realm was in the mid-stage Nascent Soul, with an indescribably profound aura.
Cloud-Fishing Elder naturally saw that the child before him was extraordinary, a Tier Four Transformed Great Demon.
However.
When his gaze fell on the Spirit Ginseng in the chubby child’s hand, he couldn’t help but twitch.
Because this Spirit Ginseng had at least a thousand years of medicinal power, to eat it raw was indeed a terribly wasteful act...
...
