Chapter 964: Chapter 700: Changes in Celestial Star City, Demon Infant Body Refining Perfection

A few days later.

The rain has passed and the sky is clear, the breeze is gentle and the sun is shining.

At the top of Little Turtle Peak, ethereal mist entwines, Spiritual Qi overflows, mountain streams cascade, and various spiritual birds and beasts shuttle between the mist.

A seven-colored auspicious cloud appears, creating a scene of a paradise beyond the mortal world.

Two incredible rainbow escape lights cut through the sky from afar, arriving outside the main peak.

The escape lights dissipate, revealing the figures of Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder.

"Fellow Daoist Qin surely knows how to live well! Even when he was in the Human Realm, he occupied a Spirit Island to cultivate."

"And now, this Little Turtle Peak also has its own unique leisure and charm."

Su Yuqing looked around, seeing lush High-Tier Spirit Plants growing abundantly, with a vitality that made one feel refreshed and uplifted.

"Indeed, a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Fellow Daoist Qin has long left the two of us far behind..." Cloud-Fishing Elder said with a sigh.

On their way here, he heard from Su Yuqing about their encounter with the Giant Spirit Race, and how they used extraordinary means to slay a Demon Race cultivator comparable to Void Refining.

They even saved Su Yuqing’s life.

Cloud-Fishing Elder was stunned and couldn’t recover for half a day.

At this moment, a familiar figure emerged from the Array Light Curtain rippling in front of them.

"It’s been a long time since we met! How have you been?"

Qin Ming opened the array and personally welcomed them, his face adorned with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, it’s good to see you well! Your elegance remains unchanged! Haha!"

"Brother Qin, in just a few years, your cultivation has improved greatly; indeed, it is impressive enough to make one envious!"

Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder smiled and greeted Qin Ming with cupped hands.

These three friends from the Human Realm, reuniting in the Spirit Realm, was no easy feat.

Mo Lingwei, Baili Hui, Lan Bing Fairy, and the Heaven-Devouring Rat also came out to greet the two one by one.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat transformed into a Cyan Robe Daoist Child, pretending to be profound and exclaimed, "Remembering the past... The Human Realm was so lively, and now only a few of us have successfully ascended... Alas! How lamentable! How regrettable!"

"I wonder how Elder Cold Crow, Fellow Daoist Yue Lingyan, and Qi Xiaoyu are doing; it’s been so long and there’s been no news."

"They all reached Nascent Soul Great Perfection long ago; I estimate they have now broken through to Divinity Transformation, but they need to handle mundane affairs before ascending." Su Yuqing said.

After some pleasantries, scenes from Wangyue Island surfaced within everyone’s minds.

Not just the Heaven-Devouring Rat, they all felt nostalgic.

Then.

Qin Ming invited Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder up to the main peak, having the Heaven-Devouring Rat and Little Silver Fox prepare Spirit Wine and Spiritual Food.

The few of them sat in the pavilion in the mountains.

Exchanging their experiences and encounters in the Spirit Realm over the years.

Soon, the Heaven-Devouring Rat and Little Silver Fox brought Spirit Wine, Spirit Fish, and an assortment of immortal mansion delicacies.

Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder’s appetites were piqued, and they began to eat heartily.

When Cloud-Fishing Elder saw the plump High-Tier ’Soul Crossing Spirit Fish’ on the table, his face showed an extremely surprised expression:

"Isn’t this... the special Spirit Fish from the Netherworld Abyss? It’s said that this Spirit Fish is extremely rare and can greatly enhance the mana of Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators, causing major forces to fight fiercely over it..."

"I heard that ghosts from the Underworld are rampant there, and several Void Refining Stage Divine Monarchs have fallen; could it be that Fellow Daoist Qin has been there?"

"Indeed, I spent some time there; chaos erupted in the Abyss, and I barely managed to make my way here." Qin Ming answered, taking a sip of Spirit Wine.

The Heaven-Devouring Rat, while devouring food, proudly said, "I personally caught these Spirit Fish, expending a great deal of effort to raise and nurture them, they’re truly delicate."

Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder were enlightened.

Unexpectedly, Qin Ming has been to such a dangerous place as the Netherworld Abyss and came back safely to Celestial Star City.

Both of them, being Silver Armor Star Guards of Celestial Star City, naturally heard many things about the Netherworld Abyss frontlines.

Those Star Guard Squads almost never return, with only a few being able to safely come back.

They were considered the most difficult missions.

Like Yao Tiannan, who led a Star Guard Squad with deep background in Celestial Star City, capable of completing such perilous tasks.

Speaking of which.

Qin Ming brought up this person, fellow squad leader; Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder had long heard of Yao Tiannan’s Star Guard Squad.

"Since everyone gets along well, perhaps someday I’ll introduce you to Brother Yao, so you can recognize each other; maybe you’ll have mutual support on missions." Qin Ming suggested.

But as soon as he spoke.

Qin Ming noticed that Su Yuqing and Cloud-Fishing Elder’s expressions seemed a bit off.

So he asked, "What? Do you... have any issues, Fellow Daoists?"

Cloud-Fishing Elder and Su Yuqing exchanged a look, then sighed and said, "Alas, Younger Brother Qin, there’s something you don’t know!"

"Recently, there might be major upheaval within Celestial Star City! It’s not a good time to make friends."

Upon hearing this.

Even Baili Hui, who was beside them, was astonished: "What?! Is there something even I, the old man, haven’t noticed?"

Mo Lingwei also showed a rather suspicious expression; Celestial Star City is one of the major cities of the Human Race, besides the Three Great Sacred Lands, naturally expected to be as stable as a mountain.
