Chapter 755: Chapter 596: The Curtain Falls, Crimson Spirit Pill
Qin Ming waved his sleeve and said to the cultivators who had come to offer congratulations, "Please rise."
"Next, you may raise your cups and drink freely. After the banquet ends, this Isle Master will give a lecture here for seven days, and each of you may attend according to your needs."
As his words fell, the scene returned to a lively atmosphere.
The cultivators below, hearing that the Venerable Divinity Transformation was about to give a lecture, were all excited.
This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!
Qin Ming began to socialize and exchange pleasantries with several Divinity Transformation peers. Sitting at the same table was also Xiao Xun, who, as the leader of the Outer Sea Human Race, was qualified to sit at the same table.
At the table below for those in the Nascent Soul Stage, Cold Crow Ascendant remarked with envious eyes, "Alas! When will I be able to sit at the Divinity Transformation table?"
"Venerable Qin is truly a once-in-a-millennium talent in the Human Realm..."
"Want to sit there? You can go right now, and see if you’ll be sitting on needles?" Master Tianji teased.
"Go, go, old man, your words are really boring."
After the banquet.
Qin Ming began to lecture on Wangyue Island. With his expertise at the pinnacle of the Human Realm, his experiences from Low-Tier to High-Tier were incredibly valuable.
The cultivators below all listened earnestly, and even those few old monsters in the Divinity Transformation Stage were gradually engrossed, like thirsting apprentices.
The content of his lecture covered cultivation, Spirit Plants, Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and more.
The cultivators in attendance would surely remember it for a lifetime.
After all, not everyone has the fortune and opportunity to listen to a Divinity Transformation lecture.
Some Low-Tier Cultivators were even enlightened by Qin Ming during the lecture, breaking through their cultivation bottleneck on the spot.
This became a celebrated anecdote later.
...
A fortnight later.
This unprecedented Divinity Transformation celebration ended, everyone reluctantly took their leave.
Several Divinity Transformation Venerables also left one after another.
Only Bingyi Ancestor and Ancestor Fuyao searched Qin Ming out on a goodwill visit, hoping that after their ascension, he would not make things difficult for their disciples, and take care of them.
Qin Ming nodded faintly, "Rest assured, Fellow Daoists, Qin’s ambition lies on the Path of Eternal Life. I am used to living freely, uninterested in matters of power dynamics in the Cultivation Realm."
"After you depart, Qin will not be concerned with the affairs of the Five Great Cultivation Realms."
The two were overjoyed upon hearing this.
At the same time, they also felt deeply ashamed; it’s no wonder that Qin Ming could break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm at such a young age. His single-minded dedication to cultivation made even these two old fellows feel inferior...
When most of the people at the assembly had dispersed.
Qin Ming summoned Hua Tianxiong over and casually asked, "Where is Fellow Daoist Cold Crow? I’m planning to have a private chat with him to deepen our relationship."
"Er...Elder Cold Crow hurriedly left after the banquet, saying there was some urgent matter to attend to back at the sect, and he asked me to pass on his regards to you." Hua Tianxiong said bravely.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming had a mysterious smile on his face, "That old fellow, he ran quite fast. I must visit Xuanqing Temple next time to have a good talk with him."
Afterward.
Qin Ming returned to the Cyan Wood Pavilion.
He saw Xiao Xun and Yue Lingyan chatting with Little Silver Fox, Heaven-Devouring Rat, and Tian Ling’er.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat’s eloquence kept everyone entertained with laughter.
When Qin Ming entered, it finally restrained its manner.
It hastily jumped down from the chair and approached Qin Ming, "Master, you’re here."
Yue Lingyan also stood and bowed to Qin Ming, gratefully saying, "Thank you, Elder Qin, for taking care of Little Silver Moon all these years, and helping her advance to the Tier Four Realm. Such great kindness, I don’t know how to repay."
"No need for formality, Fellow Daoist Lingyan. It is Little Silver Fox’s own fortune, and she has exchanged a hundred years of care for Spirit Plants to help Qin." Qin Ming said with a light smile.
Then he solemnly said, "Fellow Daoist Lingyan, I kept you behind today not only for a chat but also regarding Little Silver Fox."
He reached out to pat Little Silver Moon’s head, "Little Silver Fox has high Spirit Plant Talent, and Qin’s Spirit Medicine Garden requires someone to manage it. She can remain by my side to cultivate."
"But you know well, Qin has broken through to the Divinity Transformation Realm and will eventually ascend to the Upper Realm. When that happens, you two will be separated by the ends of the earth, making it difficult to meet again."
"Ultimately, how to choose is up to you."
Yue Lingyan was stunned upon hearing this, but she was not one to be indecisive.
She knew clearly that Little Silver Fox sticking by someone like Qin Ming, who holds endless potential in the Divinity Transformation Realm, is a fortune unachievable for several lifetimes.
If Little Silver Fox were still with her, she might still be a Tier Three Demon Cultivator, let alone achieving the Tier Four Transformation Realm.
Even before Qin Ming achieved the Nascent Soul Stage, she had seen that he was destined for greatness beyond the ordinary.
The future naturally will not stop at the Divinity Transformation Stage.
"Elder Qin, may I speak with Little Silver Moon alone?" Yue Lingyan pondered for a moment and said.
"Of course," Qin Ming nodded.
Later, Yue Lingyan took Little Silver Fox into a side chamber, where the mother and daughter communicated for a while, soon coming to a conclusion.
When they came out again, Little Silver Fox had traces of having cried.
"Elder Qin, I have asked Little Silver Moon’s wishes. She is willing to serve by your side for cultivation henceforth. Should I one day break through to the Tier Five Demon Venerable, I naturally will come to the Spirit Realm to reunite." Yue Lingyan was visibly resolute.
Qin Ming nodded and said, "Well, that would certainly be best. Actually, Qin does not plan to ascend immediately. I expect to remain in the Human Realm for quite some time, during which Fellow Daoist Lingyan can often visit her."
Yue Lingyan gladly accepted the suggestion.
Taking this opportunity, Qin Ming simply let the Little Silver Fox go back with Yue Lingyan to the Beast Roar Mountain Range, which could be considered returning home gloriously.
The little Heaven-Devouring Rat also tagged along with Tian Ling’er to join in the excitement.
After seeing them off.
In the Cyan Wood Pavilion, only Qin Ming and Xiao Xun were left.
Qin Ming poured her some Spirit Rhinoceros Jade Liquid, "What are your plans next?"
"The matters over in the Outer Sea are all settled, and there won’t be any major changes for at least a thousand years. Seeing you having attained the Divinity Transformation Stage so quickly, I’ve decided to go into seclusion and cultivate intently. However, for the ingredients of the Divinity Transformation Ointment, I’ve only collected one Ruyi Creation Mud and more than ten other supplementary materials." Xiao Xun finished speaking and took out a jade box to hand to Qin Ming.
In the lengthy time spent together, she had already developed feelings for the person before her, especially since they had already been intimate.
Yet they both understood each other’s feelings, so there was no need for words.
With Qin Ming having already reached Divinity Transformation, it was impossible for Xiao Xun not to feel any urgency.
Once Qin Ming ascends to the Spirit Realm, they would be separated by worlds again.
Therefore, after returning this time, her goal is also to go into seclusion and cultivate, gathering resources to refine the Divinity Transformation Ointment.
Qin Ming put away the jade box and said to her, "The spiritual materials left from my last refinement of the Divinity Transformation Ointment are still there, you just need to cultivate with peace of mind. As for the remaining spiritual objects, I will keep an eye out for you."
Xiao Xun smiled warmly and joined Qin Ming in discussing other experiences in the Cultivation Realm.
After several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere was set.
Soon the two entered the Cave Mansion and engaged in deeper conversation.
Several days later...
Qin Ming came to the outside, under the Spiritual Peach Tree, and flipped through the congratulatory gifts from various forces on the Divinity Transformation Ceremony.
When he looked at the gift sent by Cold Crow Ascendant, he specifically took it out to examine it.
"Crimson Spirit Pill..."
After he finished looking through it, he found that it was surprisingly a Tier Five Middle-Grade Crimson Spirit Pill formula, which could greatly enhance the mana of the Divinity Transformation Stage.
"This Cold Crow Ascendant indeed has some good stuff in his hands..."
"This level of pill formula was obviously obtained from somewhere else. No, visiting Xuanqing Temple should be put on the agenda as soon as possible."
What was even more fortuitous was that during the ceremony when the gifts were collected, most of the materials for refining this Crimson Spirit Pill had already been gathered.
Qin Ming only needed to collect a few other spiritual materials to be able to start the alchemy.
If he could successfully refine the Crimson Spirit Pill, with the cooperation of entries, it would not be a problem for him to achieve Divinity Transformation Perfection in the Human Realm.
Qin Ming was in a very good mood.
After putting away the pill formula, Qin Ming’s gaze fell on the bottle of Three Lights Divine Water from the Penglai Sect.
Back when he subdued the Lan Bing Saintess at the Primordial Extreme Mountain, he also promised her to reconstruct her body.
He then entered the Little Spirit Realm.
The Star Sea Divine Vine, emitting a shimmering blue glow, had visibly improved the Divine Soul condition of the Lan Bing Saintess.
"Greetings, Master."
Although she still wasn’t very used to it, upon seeing Qin Ming, she still floated down from the tree and bowed.
Qin Ming took out a jade bottle and said, "The Three Lights Divine Water to help you reconstruct your body is already in hand. Is there anything else you desire for your new body?"
"After all, it’s not feasible for your Divine Soul to be without a physical body for long, just parasitizing on the Star Vine."
Seeing the Three Lights Divine Water in Qin Ming’s hand, the Lan Bing Saintess showed a hint of excitement. Clearly, he was a man of his word, more reliable than the Six Paths Saint Ancestor.
Her perception of Qin Ming changed significantly at once.
"Thank you, Master. My physique differs from ordinary cultivators, being a hybrid of an Ancient True Spirit and the Demon Race."
"If I could find a Void Spirit Root cultivator to seize or someone from the Feather Race with a True Spirit Bloodline, it would be ideal, though both of these conditions are quite difficult."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming couldn’t help but frown, "A hybrid of Ancient True Spirit and Demon Race?"
"Void Spirit Root... Such a spirit root is notoriously difficult to come by, even more so than some special spirit bodies."
He had heard a little about such a spirit root physique.
Now that he had the Three Lights Divine Water, casually finding a demonic cultivator for her to seize and reconstruct her body wouldn’t be impossible.
But doing so would limit the potential of her Ice Phoenix Bloodline, reducing its growth potential.
This would not be particularly helpful for Qin Ming in the future.
However, he had no intention of capturing a human Void Spirit Root cultivator for her to seize.
"It seems this matter requires long-term planning."
"I will keep an eye on this matter for you, you should focus on recovering."
"Yes, Master."
After resolving these matters, Wangyue Island returned to its usual tranquility.
A fortnight later, the little Heaven-Devouring Rat and Little Silver Fox, along with the others, returned from the Beast Roar Mountain Range.
When they returned, each had a storage pouch bulging with items, their faces adorned with joyful smiles.
