Chapter 360: Spirit Fox Presenting Treasures

Qin Ming, after reviewing the two jade slips, revealed a joyful expression on his face.

Within one of the jade slips Su Yuqing sent him, several spirit materials that could substitute for the Divine Wood Pill were listed, and the other recorded the complete refining method and insights for the Nascent Soul Pill.

Qin Ming only spent several days digesting and thoroughly understanding the content.

“Brother Su is indeed a man of outstanding talent. In terms of alchemy attainment, I’m afraid those Old Monsters from Ancient Times couldn’t compare to him.”

Qin Ming was filled with emotion for a moment.

“The Pill Recipe matter has been settled. Next, as long as I gather the corresponding spirit materials, I can start refining.”

Within the Small Spiritual Realm.

Since Qin Ming’s three Spirit Pets consumed the Beast Emperor Pill, after several months, the Black Water Crocodile and Silver-Winged Frost Bee smoothly broke through to the Third Stage, Mid-Level.

However, the Heaven Devouring Rat, after eating two Beast Emperor Pills in a row, only had a significant increase in demon power and didn’t manage to break through to the Late Stage, which truly depressed it.

Originally, its cultivation had been far ahead, but now it was being caught up by Old Second and Old Third, and the Heaven Devouring Rat’s Sense of Urgency was maxed out.

Qin Ming had just finished irrigating the spirit field within the Small Spiritual Realm, and saw it squatting alone beside the Earth Spirit Spring, gloomily pondering Rat Life.

Seeing its Appearance, Qin Ming found it quite amusing, so he went forward and said:

“Even your Master, I, am still working hard to cultivate in the Mid-Golden Core, it’s important to accumulate and then burst forth.”

“You also need to be patient and steady, and to consolidate your Foundation.”

“That day, you also saw the Scene when Fellow Daoist Lingyan was breaking through to the Fourth-Order Transforming Great Demon, the more you cultivate, the less easily you can break through.”

“Not only does it rely on your own Effort, but it also requires great Strength and Fate.”

“You still have to Experience and achieve Growth yourself!”

Qin Ming patted its shoulder.

The Heaven Devouring Rat was immediately stimulated, jumping up directly and saying: “Master’s teaching is extremely correct! It gave me Enlightenment!”

“I will go to the Beast Howl Mountains to Experience again.”

After saying that, the Heaven Devouring Rat then picked up the Black Steel Fork, left the Small Spiritual Realm, and plunged into the Beast Howl Mountains.

Qin Ming: “.”

……

Qin Ming completed his daily Practice, came to the Five Elements Mountain spirit field, and checked the Spirit Plant Growth.

He was walking leisurely on the field ridge when he saw Li Lan coming towards him and respectfully Bowed to him:

“Greetings, Shopkeeper Lu.”

“Hmm, what matters do you have?”

Li Lan had an evasive Appearance, as if wanting to speak but hesitating.

“Speak directly,” Qin Ming said.

The next moment, it was seen that Li Lan bowed deeply to Qin Ming, and then said with an extremely sincere Attitude:

“Shopkeeper Lu, Li admires your Spirit Plant Attainment greatly, therefore I would like to be your disciple, and I also ask you to accept me as your disciple!”

“Ah? Accepting Disciples?” Qin Ming was taken aback upon hearing this.

He came to Great Jin only to seek a Nascent Soul Opportunity, and didn’t have much Interest in accepting Disciples.

Although Qin Ming appreciated Li Lan, a Free Cultivator who had relied on his own exploration to advance all the way to the Second-Rank High-Grade Spirit Plant Master.

But it didn’t reach the point of accepting Disciples.

“Cough! I am usually busy with Affairs and don’t have much Time to teach you.”

“How about this, I can give you some Experience in cultivating Third-Rank Spirit Plants, and in the Future, you will have to rely on your own self-study and self-realization.”

“But as a Condition, if you break through to the Third Rank Spiritual Plant Grandmaster, you have to plant Spirit Rice for free under me for thirty years.”

“And you cannot plant for any other Powers except the Mirror Snow Pavilion.”

“As for your spare Time, you can cultivate other Spirit Plants on your own, and I won’t interfere, it’s not within the Conditions.”

“What do you think?”

Li Lan, upon hearing this, hardly gave it any thought and agreed immediately.

“Li agrees.”

“Then thank you, Shopkeeper Lu.”

Qin Ming smiled slightly, and a jade slip appeared in his right hand and he handed it to him.

After Li Lan respectfully took it, he retreated as if he had obtained a treasure.

But he had just left.

Jia Heyi was seen running towards Qin Ming with a joyful Expression, still clutching something in his hand.

“Good news! Shopkeeper Lu, great news!”

Jia Heyi hurriedly walked to him, speaking with great excitement.

Qin Ming Frowned and couldn’t help but ask: “Old Jia, what good thing has made you so Happy?”

“Look, Shopkeeper, this is a special invitation from the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance, inviting our Mirror Snow Pavilion to join the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance!” Jia Heyi handed the item in his hand to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming took it, glanced at it, and then asked with indifference: “Isn’t it just joining a Merchant Alliance? Are you so Happy about it?”

Jia Heyi was stunned upon hearing this, and Dry Laughing explained:

“Shopkeeper Lu, you don’t know! There are so many Merchant Guilds, who try to join the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance, but can’t find the way.”

“In Great Jin, the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance is the Third Great Power besides the Li Fire Palace and Divine Dao Mountain, and its Business even covers the neighboring Great Li and Great Zhou Cultivation Worlds.”

“After joining the Merchant Alliance, you can not only enjoy discounts on Shop rent and Immortal Dynasty Taxes, but also enjoy various Support from the Merchant Alliance, which is of great Benefit to the Future Development of the Merchant Guild.”

“Therefore, not every Merchant Guild can join, it must be decided by the Elder Council of the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance before an invitation is issued.”

“For a Merchant Guild, it is also a great Approval and honor.”

Qin Ming nodded, “I see.”

Then he asked another question that was a bit perplexing:

“But in Great Jin, besides the rent for setting up shops in the Marketplace, you still have to pay Taxes?”

Jia Heyi replied: “That’s right, the actual controller of Great Jin is the Li Fire Palace, and the Immortal Dynasty requires a certain amount of Taxes to be paid each year.”

“However, after joining the Myriad Dao Merchant Alliance, you will enjoy some Discount policies, which is also one of the Conditions for the Cooperation between the two Great Powers.”

“In addition, the High-Level of the Merchant Alliance wants to invite you for a talk.”

Qin Ming pondered for a moment, and directly replied: “It seems that no matter where, no matter when, even in a large Cultivation World like Great Jin, the Superior Being’s exploitation of the lower levels is inevitable, so let’s join.”

“I won’t go to Sign the agreement and handle the social interaction. You go and take care of it.”

Jia Heyi didn’t expect that, facing such good news, Qin Ming would be so calm.

He didn’t even give face to the High-Level of the Merchant Alliance. He had to give up and went to take care of it himself.

Qin Ming’s Thoughts, except for his own Spirit Plants, seemed indifferent to other matters.

But what he didn’t expect was.

The Heaven Devouring Rat, who was stimulated by the cultivation matters before, returned from the Beast Howl Mountains after several days.

With it, surprisingly, was the Little Silver Fox Yue’er.

That Heaven Devouring Rat, had a cheerful Expression.

The Gloomy air from the previous breakthrough failure was swept away. Along the way, they were chatting and laughing with the Little Silver Fox.

To avoid unforeseen circumstances, Qin Ming quickly took the two Beasts into the Small Spiritual Realm.

What if someone found out?

Then Qin Ming questioned the Heaven Devouring Rat:

“You, I let you go out for Experience, why did you bring her here?”

“Is your Skin itching again?”

The Heaven Devouring Rat smiled with Embarrassment, and explained:

“Hehe! Master, I didn’t make her come.”

“She wanted to come herself, and it was just a coincidence, on the way…”

Beside them, the Little Silver Fox, came forward and Gracefully performed a bow to Qin Ming and said in a crisp voice: “Senior Qin, it really has nothing to do with it, Young Girl is under Mother’s orders, to bring you something.”

“Previously, we received Senior’s Life-Saving Grace, and we had nothing to repay, and Mother, while annihilating her previous enemies a few Days Later, gathered a lot of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from several Tribes, she said that Senior should have use for them.”

Then she took out a Storage Bag and handed it to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming took it and opened it to take a look, “Whoa, Good Stuff.”

Inside were all the spirit materials for refining Pills, the Divine Wood Pill materials he had been trying hard to collect and couldn’t get, and now they were instantly gathered.

Not only that, the materials needed to refine the Five Elements Flag were also complete.
