Chapter 272: Golden Core Sects Begin Decisive Battle

Qin Ming put away the Golden Core, reached out, and took the storage bag of Old Demon Yan into his pocket.

Then he destroyed the shriveled corpse and eliminated all traces.

After doing all this, Qin Ming summoned his Spirit Pet back and returned to the island.

On Moonview Island, everyone from the Wu Clan naturally heard the earth-shattering movement outside.

Seeing Qin Ming return safely, Wu Jiang finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

He tremblingly came to Qin Ming and asked:

“Island Master, what happened outside just now?”

“Nothing happened, it’s all been resolved.”

“You don’t need to worry too much, go about your business.”

Qin Ming said faintly.

“Ah? Yes!”

Hearing this, Wu Jiang continued to lead everyone back to the Spirit Field to continue farming.

He muttered to himself as he walked.

‘The fighting was so fierce, and you call that nothing happened?’

‘Who believes it?’

It’s just that every time he saw Qin Ming acting as if nothing had happened, Wu Jiang was used to it.

……

Qin Ming came in front of his Natal Spirit Plant, the Yin Yang Mysterious Vine, and replanted those three Wood Emperor Nails.

After this battle, he was simply filled with confidence in the power of this Top-Grade Magical Artifact.

Ordinary Low-Grade Magical Artifacts, in front of the Wood Emperor Nail, would basically shatter on contact.

After adding the Solar Essence Gold, it was even more effective in restraining Demonic Path ghosts and creatures.

Afterwards, Qin Ming also fed that Blood Bead of Old Demon Yan to the Yin Yang Mysterious Vine.

In an instant.

The black vines stretched and danced, and this Blood Bead made the Mysterious Vine grow a lot.

More importantly, after the Yin Yang Mysterious Vine absorbed the Years Qi produced by the Golden Core level Blood Bead, in just this moment, it was equivalent to being nurtured in the Dantian for several hundred years.

It was many times faster than nurturing it in his own Dantian.

In the Immortal’s Cave.

Qin Ming took out Old Demon Yan’s storage bag, forcibly erased the restriction imprints with his Divine Sense, and opened it up to look through.

Speaking of Old Demon Yan, he was an Old Demon who was outside of the Six Demonic Sects, with ruthless means and an extremely cruel temperament.

He had been active in the Demonic Path for several hundred years, and could be considered a notable figure.

Therefore, his storage bag was also overflowing with wealth, even having dozens of Top-Grade Spirit Stones, tens of thousands of Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, and countless other various Spirit Material resources.

However, most of them were for cultivating Demonic Skills.

“How could this Old Demon Yan have gotten involved with Lingyun Sect of Jin Kingdom?”

“There are probably some unknown secrets involved.”

“However, these affairs between the sects have nothing to do with me.”

“It’s just… that person named Duanmu Sheng, I’ll temporarily make a note of them in my Notebook, and let them jump around for a few more days.”

“I’ve hidden myself here, living a life free from worldly concerns, yet they dare to make a move on me.”

“It’s best if he’s still alive when I leave Secluded Cultivation, otherwise, I’ll flatten his grave.”

After pondering for a while.

Qin Ming then summoned Wu Jiang over.

“Island Master, what are your orders?” Wu Jiang put down the farm work and quickly ran over.

Qin Ming said faintly, “I’m going into Secluded Cultivation for a period of time, and no one can disturb me.”

“If anyone comes later, you don’t need to pay any attention, wait until I leave Secluded Cultivation.”

During this period of time, he had completely understood the Golden Core Formation, and had some Certainty, and was preparing to Start Alchemy.

Therefore, the early preparation work must also be done well.

“Okay, Island Master, please rest assured.” Wu Jiang immediately agreed.

Afterwards.

Qin Ming carefully examined Wu Jiang for a few moments, making Wu Jiang feel somewhat uneasy.

Wu Jiang hesitated and asked, “Island Master, is there anything else?”

“Well, Wu Jiang, it’s been a few decades in a flash.”

“You’ve been working under me for so long, I didn’t expect it.” Qin Ming smiled slightly.

Wu Jiang was slightly stunned, and scratched his head, “It really went by quickly, Haha.”

Qin Ming saw his appearance, and sighed, as if seeing the Young Man who was wandering outside in the past.

“I see that your Magical Power is still quite stable, and you’ve reached Qi Refining Perfection.”

“For the sake of all these years, I have a Foundation Establishment Pill here, which can be sold to you for eighty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.”

Buzz~

Hearing this, Wu Jiang’s mind went blank, and he stammered, “Island Master Qin, are you serious?”

Qin Ming looked at his appearance, and couldn’t help but feel a little amused, then nodded.

A surge of excitement arose in Wu Jiang’s heart. For so many years, the Wu Clan had been working hard on the Spirit Island, and naturally had some Savings.

Wu Jiang could still come up with these eighty thousand Spirit Stones.

Foundation Establishment Pills, as a Strategic Resource Monopolized by the Great Sects, might not be available even if you had Spirit Stones.

Even if you bought it, you might not have the life to enjoy it.

Originally, Wu Jiang thought that his Path in This Life would stop here, and he entrusted all of his Lifelong wishes to his two Children.

Unexpectedly, today he rekindled his Hope!

Afterwards, Wu Jiang quickly took out the sufficient amount of Spirit Stones and handed them over to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming put away the Spirit Stones and handed him a delicate Jade Bottle.

Wu Jiang, trembling, took the Jade Bottle, opened it, and saw a Azure Blue Spirit Pill quietly lying inside, emitting an astonishing Pill Halo.

On the surface of the Spirit Pill, five Pill Veins were clearly appearing.

“Fine Foundation Establishment Pill!”

“Thank you very much, Island Master!”

A surge of emotion welled up in Wu Jiang, and he hadn’t worked with Qin Ming for so many years in vain. The Fine Grade Foundation Establishment Pill would definitely far exceed this price.

He didn’t expect Island Master Qin to give him the Fine Grade Level.

“Alright, you consolidate your Cultivation, and strive for a Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.”

“You are not young anymore, high-age Foundation Establishment has high requirements for a Cultivator’s Qi and Blood.”

“But for so many years, you have been insisting on Farming every day, and your Physical Body has been exercised quite well, Haha!”

“Although you are a little older, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“In History, there are also examples of Cultivators who reached Foundation Establishment in their Seventy Years Old.”

“As for how to use this Foundation Establishment Pill, you decide for yourself.”

Qin Ming said faintly, and then pointed out a few things to Wu Jiang, and explained the places that needed attention during Foundation Establishment.

Wu Jiang thanked him profusely, and performed a Great Ceremony to Qin Ming.

The instructions were finished.

Qin Ming then told him to leave.

“Next, I will also start Refining the Golden Core Pill!”

Qin Ming’s Gaze was sharp, and every action was filled with strong Confidence.

In an instant.

Countless Third-Grade Spiritual Materials flew out of the Storage Bag and floated in the air around Qin Ming.

Among them, the azure blue Still Dark True Yin Flower and the crimson gold Fiery Golden Lotus were the most Eye-catching.

Qin Ming had kept the Seeds of these High-Grade Spirit Materials, and could continue to Cultivate them in the future if needed.

Qin Ming took out the Black Jade Furnace, opened his mouth and sprayed, and the Third-Grade Devouring Spirit Poison Flame transformed into an Azure Blue Firebird and flew out.

Everything was ready, and Qin Ming began to Refining it in a familiar way according to the steps on the Golden Core Formation.

……

Half a Year passed.

Inside the Immortal’s Cave.

Qin Ming reached out and beckoned, and took out a lump of pitch black Medicine Dregs from the bottom of the Alchemy Furnace, and observed it by gently kneading it with his fingers.

A small, Semi-Finished Product of a crimson gold Pill was revealed inside.

“The third failure.”

“But this time, it’s taken a big step closer to Success.”

“The Difficulty of Refining this Golden Core Pill is truly extraordinarily high.”

He had been in Secluded Cultivation for half a year, and he also planned to go out and get some fresh air to change his Mood, maybe next time he would succeed.

Qin Ming walked outside the Immortal’s Cave, but saw Heaven Devouring Rat running over with a smile, and said to him:

“Master, during the time you were in Secluded Cultivation, that Bitch from the Mirror Snow Pavilion came to see you several times.”

“Seeing that you were in Secluded Cultivation, she didn’t come to bother you.”

Qin Ming was quite surprised, “What did Gu Qingzhao want to see me for?”

“Isn’t it some demon head who has transformed again?”

“Hehe! It’s indeed her, I had Wu Jiang write the message she wanted to convey into a Letter.”

“Here, it’s all inside.” After saying that, Heaven Devouring Rat handed a Jade Slip to Qin Ming.

After Qin Ming browsed the Content inside the Jade Slip, his Eyebrows couldn’t help but knit into a Sichuan Character.

Heaven Devouring Rat saw Qin Ming’s rare, serious expression and couldn’t help but ask, “Master, is something wrong?”

“Well, the Situation has become chaotic recently.”

“The Final Battle between Spirit Feather Sect and Thunder Yuan Sect will take place during this period.”

“The sky of Wei Kingdom… is probably going to change.”

Qin Ming learned from the Information provided by Gu Qingzhao that Spirit Feather Sect and Thunder Yuan Sect had begun to secretly draw large numbers of personnel and frequently arrange their Arrangement in the past Half a Year.

They are probably preparing for the final Life and Death Battle.

Qin Ming had guessed some of it after seeing Yuwen Hong last time from the other party’s Word, and had long foreseen that the Great Battle would come, but he didn’t expect it to come so quickly.

The reason why Gu Qingzhao was in a hurry to see Qin Ming was because the Lingxi Archipelago, although this Territory had limited Resources and was not a place that everyone must compete for.

But because in recent years, Wei Kingdom had been affected by the Ghost Disaster of Liang Kingdom, and many important roads in the Territory were occupied and cut off by Ghosts.

The Lingxi Archipelago had instead become the only way for the two Sects to Battle, and might be affected by the War.

For a moment, this place was once again pushed to the forefront.

Between the lines, Qin Ming could also see that Gu Qingzhao was extremely Worried about his Safety.

“Sigh, the Wind and Cloud of the Cultivation World are changing unpredictably, it is truly difficult to predict…”

Qin Ming immediately wrote a Letter, summoned Wu Jiang, and had him deliver the Reply to Gu Qingzhao.

……

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, another two Months passed.

On this Day.

A large piece of Pitch Black Shadow suddenly appeared above Moon Gazing Lake.

Qin Ming, who was Alchemy in the Immortal’s Cave, naturally sensed the Situation outside, and he immediately released his Divine Sense to Investigate the Situation in the Sky.

He saw a sky full of Magic Ships quickly passing through the Lingxi Archipelago and pressing towards the direction of Thunder Yuan Sect.

The vast Cultivator Army was awe-inspiring, exceeding any Cultivator expedition Qin Ming had ever seen.

The masts were uniformly hung with the Mark of the Spirit Feather Sect.

Behind them were many large and small Powers that followed the Spirit Feather Sect.

This Scale made Heaven and Earth change color.

On the leading Giant Ship of the Spirit Feather Sect, stood a person with an Immortal-like Demeanor, it was Yuwen Hong, the Golden Core Ancestor of the Spirit Feather Sect.

He stood on the bow of the ship as he passed by, and gazed deeply in the direction of Moonview Island.

The Cultivator Army of Spirit Feather Sect, which was completely out, passed over the Lingxi Archipelago after a full two Days.

“I didn’t expect that Spirit Feather Sect would take the lead.”

“It seems that Yuwen Hong has something to rely on in this battle.”

Qin Ming, looking at the clear Sky again, was thoughtful.

……

As the Days passed, the Information about the Battle of the two Golden Core Sects also gradually returned to Moonview Island.

And at such a Key Point, Qin Ming, with no attention paid to outside matters, devoted his whole Heart to Alchemy.

……
