Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 304 - 286: Fearsome Reputation

In the ruins.

After a chilling howl.

Qin Ming’s gaze flickered slightly, deep in thought, and he casually tossed Duanmu Saint’s corpse aside.

He then used the Thorn Technique, acquiring another Golden Core-level Blood Pearl.

After collecting the two Golden Cores and their storage pouches, he glanced back at the Immortal City, nearly reduced to ruins by the recent battle’s aftermath.

"With the two primary Golden Core cultivators of the Lingyun Sect dead, the remaining ones are just a motley crew. Without their backbone, they naturally pose no threat to Wei Country."

After accomplishing all this, Qin Ming transformed into a stream of cyan light and vanished into the horizon.

After he left.

After half an incense stick’s worth of time.

Scattered and trembling cultivators cautiously emerged from the alleys of the scarred Immortal City.

They were truly scared to the core by the earth-shattering divine techniques of the Golden Core Great Power just now.

They were all grateful to still be alive.

"They’re all dead!"

"The two Supreme Elders have fallen!"

"What should we do?!"

Many cultivators in the Immortal City witnessed the Golden Core battle just now.

They saw Master Wangyue of Wei Country, astonishingly defeating two opponents, slaying both Duanmu Saint and Old Ghost Yuu, causing them to be filled with fear.

In an instant.

The cultivators from Jin Country, like headless flies, began to flee the borders of Wei Country overnight.

...

Qin Ming rode the Silver-winged Frost Bee, recalling the intelligence he obtained from the Soul Search on Duanmu Saint.

"The Lingyun Sect of Jin Country secretly colluding with the Demonic Path..."

"Intending to reach into the other three kingdoms during the ghost calamity in Liang Country."

"That Duanmu Saint truly deserved death."

At the Golden Core Stage, battles between same-tier cultivators rarely end in death.

Golden Core cultivators have many ways to save their lives, and at the same level, if one decides to flee, it’s hard to stop them.

One could only say that Duanmu Saint and Old Ghost Yuu were extremely unlucky to provoke him.

Qin Ming powerfully killed the two, not even needing to use his Lifebound Artifact, the Wood Emperor Nail.

His Body Refining Technique after breaking through to the True Body Pill, paired with the Tier Three high-grade Spirit-Devouring Poison Flame, were unstoppable even by ordinary early-stage Golden Core cultivators.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat, after breaking through to Tier Three mid-stage, was eager but never got the chance to act.

"I’ve fulfilled my promise to Wei Wuya."

"Moreover, I acquired the Golden Core."

"Once back on the island, it’ll depend on your destiny."

Qin Ming patted the Silver-winged Frost Bee beneath him, which let out an excited cry and sped up, disappearing as a silver stream.

...

The next day.

In the Thunder Origin Sect’s main hall, a group of high-ranking elders, including Wei Wuya, was discussing the war situation.

Wei Wuya had been busy handling various matters recently and was quite troubled.

Especially since Jin Country’s Lingyun Sect, taking advantage of Thunder Origin Sect’s loss after the battle with Spirit Feather Sect.

Secretly launched attacks with other Jin Country sects, worsening Thunder Origin Sect’s plight.

At this moment.

A figure rushed in from outside the main hall, nearly out of breath.

The people in the hall focused and saw it was a cultivator from the sect’s Scout Camp.

"Why are you so panicked?! Show some decorum!"

"Has there been a change in the front line’s situation?"

The Law Enforcement Hall’s Great Elder raised an authoritative brow and asked.

Wei Wuya also frowned, as the current situation was extremely unfavorable for Wei Country.

"Cough! Cough!"

"Reporting to the Supreme Elder, there’s urgent news."

"Last night, Master Wangyue went alone to the Yellow Stone Immortal City occupied by Jin Country, single-handedly fighting two Golden Core Ancestors of the Lingyun Sect and... exterminated both Golden Cores!"

"The Jin Country army has begun to withdraw at dawn today."

BOOM!

The news shocked everyone present, including Wei Wuya.

"Is the news reliable?" Wei Wuya asked in disbelief.

He had fought with Lingyun Sect’s Old Ghost Yuu and knew well of his methods.

Wei Wuya could hardly believe that Qin Ming, just after breaking through to the Golden Core Stage, could kill the renowned Old Ghost Yuu.

"Absolutely true!"

"Many cultivators witnessed it firsthand last night."

"It’s said that Master Wangyue unleashed his divine might, slaying the two Golden Cores of Lingyun Sect in a totally one-sided battle."

"In a very short time, with nothing but a single Divine Fire, he easily defeated both."

After confirmation, Wei Wuya’s emotions couldn’t calm for a long time, and he let out a wry smile.

"I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Qin’s power... to have reached such a level?"

"It seems I underestimated Fellow Daoist Qin... No wonder he agreed so readily."

"His divine techniques are truly formidable."

...

Several days later.

The shocking news of Master Wangyue’s powerful slaying of Jin Country’s two ancestors swept through Wei Country like a hurricane, spreading to the other three kingdoms.

After this, Master Wangyue’s fame became even greater.

Apart from his inspiring cultivation journey.

The main reason was the awe and admiration for his terrifying strength.

One could say that Master Wangyue, single-handedly, dissolved Wei Country’s crisis.

Additionally.

Several Golden Core Ancestors in the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm and the Old Demons from the Six Demonic Sects became highly wary of Qin Ming.

They no longer dared to underestimate this newly promoted Golden Core who hadn’t broken through for long.

For a time.

Qin Ming’s infamous reputation was firmly imprinted in the minds of all cultivators.

After returning to Wangyue Island.

Qin Ming tossed the two Blood Pearls to the Lifebound Spirit Plant, Yin Yang Profound Vine.

The black vines, like countless tentacles, danced wildly, and once the Golden Core-level Blood Pearl was absorbed, the entire Lifebound Spirit Plant grew several dozen feet taller.

Moreover, a mysterious Time Qi enveloped his Lifebound Artifact, the Wood Emperor Nail, equivalent to being nurtured for another hundred years, further increasing its power.

Then, Qin Ming gave Duanmu Saint’s Middle-Grade Golden Core to the Silver-winged Frost Bee.

The Silver-wing excitedly took the Golden Core and returned to the hive to undergo a breakthrough.

Once the Profound Water Crocodile and Silver-winged Frost Bee break through, Qin Ming will have two more Tier Three Demon Kings under his command, further enhancing his power.

However, for a Demon Beast to break through to the Tier Three Demon King realm is a significant barrier, unlike a small realm, as the power of the Thunder Tribulation would be greater, leaving only one out of ten Demon Beasts surviving the ordeal.

"Alas, Master, you don’t know how terrifying the Tier Three Thunder Tribulation truly is."

"When I was undergoing tribulation in the Beast Roar Mountain Range, if I hadn’t accidentally found a treasure to withstand the tribulation, I would have been long gone."

The Heaven-Devouring Rat recalled the past with lingering fear.

"Hmm, after I broke through to the Golden Core, I haven’t gone on a journey yet."

"Now with the power, once the Profound Water Crocodile and Silver-wing break through, I plan to visit the other three kingdoms of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm and also make a trip to the Cyan Origin Sect’s Thunder Cleansing Pool to repair the Hook Jade Golden Light Mirror artifact."

...

The following period.

Qin Ming began working on refining the ’Longevity Fruit Pill.’

After all, Master Yuheng had only five years left to live, and the people of Profound Creek Valley were probably growing impatient.

Refining a Tier Three Middle-Grade Pill was a challenge for Qin Ming, especially a longevity-increasing Spirit Pill, which was even more difficult to craft.

Half a year later, a burst of Five-Colored Radiance emanated from Qin Ming’s cave mansion.

In the Tier Three High-Grade Wind Thunder Cauldron, four jade-green Spirit Pills, emanating soft spirit charm and vitality, quietly floated within the Pill Furnace.
