Chapter 803 Visit and Exchange, Invitation from the Holy Lord
On Little Turtle Peak.

The various strange phenomena of heaven and earth behind Qin Ming all disappeared.

The Devouring Rat had previously seen that Qin Ming had summoned the Primordial Divine Mountain, and a huge phantom of its own Devouring Spirit Clan had appeared there.

It straightened its back, raised its chin, then turned its head left and right, glancing at the Blue Ice Fairy and Yue Lingyan beside it, before saying with great pride:

"Ahem! Did you all see that just now? The divine mountain that our master built was forged using my life essence and blood. Its power is truly immense!"

"It's amazing that it was able to withstand such a terrifying heavenly tribulation."

Seeing that both of them looked indifferent, it leaned close to the Blue Ice Fairy's ear and whispered:

"Master said that the treasure has five sacred mountains in total, and next time we'll probably need your essence blood, Fairy Blue Ice."

And judging from its tone, it seemed to be gloating.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Blue Ice frowned at the Devouring Sky Rat, and a chilling aura suddenly pierced its spine.

The Devouring Rat immediately shut its mouth.
……

Inside the cave.

Qin Ming's mid-stage Void Refinement realm within his body has become completely stable. His comprehension of the power of spatial laws and his application of supernatural abilities have both improved significantly, making him incomparable to what he was before.

After his demonic infant spirit completed its breakthrough, he allowed it to return to Yin Lingzi's body.

After this breakthrough, his main cultivation technique, "Eternal Azure Emperor Technique," gained a lifespan bonus, and after consuming the Mysterious Spirit Immortal Peach, his lifespan was extended by more than three thousand years.

In addition, with the effect of the "Longevity and Prosperity" stat, his lifespan was increased by more than 10,000 years.

They reached a lifespan of 36,000 years.

In addition, his spiritual power also increased significantly, and the degree of his spiritual crystallization deepened, making him comparable to the peak of the Void Refinement stage.

It is possible to divide divine thoughts into billions.

After the enhancement of divine sense, one can achieve more complex control and deduction in alchemy, weapon crafting, high-difficulty array formation, and farming.

He raised his hand and made a grasping motion with his five fingers, and a large amount of wood-attribute spiritual energy gathered in the void, swimming over like a mayfly.

Roar!
A domineering dragon roar suddenly rang out.

Then, the mayfly's spiritual energy gathered more and more, and in an instant it transformed into a wood-attribute horned azure dragon, roaring and swirling, looking imposing, with the pressure of an ancient king spreading out, as if a true dragon had appeared in the world.

It differs from other methods of refining the void.

This azure dragon formed from the spiritual energy of mayflies is a derivative divine power that Qin Ming developed after advancing to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm by cultivating the Mayfly chapter of the "Eternal Azure Emperor Technique".

The Horned Wood Azure Dragon can isolate all the primordial energy of heaven and earth, and is even more powerful than the Primordial Divine Light.

Once struck by this great divine power, both the five elements of spiritual energy and the demonic energy will be immediately severed from the cultivator's connection, making them easy prey for Qin Ming.

It can be said that it has a certain effect on the vital energy of heaven and earth, and as the cultivation of the Mayfly Technique deepens, the power of this supernatural ability can continue to increase.

This technique now has a significant weakening effect on the opponent's methods, making it a sharp and unique supernatural ability.

Qin Ming nodded with great satisfaction, and with a wave of his hand, the huge horned azure dragon disintegrated, turning into specks of azure spiritual energy that scattered.

"After cultivating for 1,420 years, I have finally reached the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm!"

The phantom of the immortal plant behind Qin Ming gradually faded away, and a turquoise light flashed in his dark eyes.

The divine light of the four seasons emanating from the Azure Emperor's Eyes on his forehead was completely subdued.

His every move at this moment was completely different from before, as if he had completely merged into the world.

A powerful sense of confidence emanated from Qin Ming.

Now, with his strength, he has gained more confidence in the current unsafe environment of the spirit world.

As long as you don't encounter an old monster in the Integration stage, you can basically handle those in the Void Refinement stage.

Qin Ming suppressed his spiritual pressure and then stepped out of the cave.

With the protection of a sixth-order grand formation and two divine mountains as treasures to ward off tribulation, this tribulation poses almost no threat to Qin.

The main peak was also unaffected by the heavenly tribulation, as it was completely blocked by him.

A portion of the power of the calamity was absorbed by that illusory god pill seed.

At this moment, the Nine Transformation Tribulation Pill planted in Qin Ming's primordial spirit has three silver Dao patterns flashing with lightning on its surface, indicating that after this tribulation, the pill seed has grown into a mid-grade sixth-order divine pill.

Qin Ming believed that all he had to do next was wait for him to complete the late stage of Void Refinement and the two minor tribulations of Void Refinement Perfection.

It is highly possible that the Nine Transformations Tribulation Pill can be upgraded to the sixth-grade top-quality level, or even the legendary seventh-grade Dao Pill realm.

If he can truly achieve this, it will become a powerful foundation for him when he attempts to break through the Great Tribulation of Integration.

Aside from the newly acquired Seven Emotions and Six Desires Tree, it could be considered another opportunity for union.

As for the demonic infant's primordial spirit, Qin Ming allowed it to continue possessing Yin Lingzi and secretly return to the Red Water Wasteland.

As soon as Qin Ming arrived outside the main peak, he saw his spirit pets and subordinates all surrounding him.

The Devouring Rat stepped forward first. Seeing that Qin Ming had become even more unfathomable, it immediately cupped its hands in a respectful bow and offered its congratulations with a grin:
"Congratulations, Master, on breaking through to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm! You've taken another step forward on your path to immortality!!"

Blue Ice Fairy, Moon Spirit, Little Silver Fox, Silver Wing Frost Bee, Mysterious Water Crocodile, and Tian Ling'er also stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

"Congratulations, master, congratulations, master!"

Seeing Qin Ming's cultivation level rise so high, they were naturally overjoyed.

"Congratulations, Peak Master, on your great advancement in cultivation! May your immortal path be everlasting!"

Baili Hui and Mo Lingwei also offered their heartfelt congratulations.

Qin Ming smiled gently and said, "Yes, no need for formalities."

"Master, today is a joyous day for your breakthrough. Should we hold a banquet to celebrate? Hehehe!" The Devouring Rat rubbed its little hands together and laughed.

"Hmm, you're the most troublesome one. But since I broke through today, I'm sure the surrounding cultivators already know about this big commotion. Let's just have a small celebration." Qin Ming pointed at the Devouring Sky Rat, then pondered for a moment.

"Fairy Mo, Baili Hui, inform all the cultivation families and forces within the Little Turtle Peak spiritual land area that they will be exempt from taxes for one hundred years, starting today."

Baili Hui and Mo Lingwei exchanged a glance, then quickly cupped their hands in response, "We will obey the orders of the Peak Master!"

……

A few days later.

A grand banquet was held on Little Turtle Peak to celebrate the occasion.

The entire area was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Those families and rogue cultivators who were fortunate enough to be accepted into the Little Turtle Peak spiritual land all sang praises of the legendary tales of Lord Wangyue.

With this powerful figure at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm in charge, they calmed down from the panic caused by the insect plague.

During this time, Qin Ming's old friends in Tianxing City, and even Zi Chen Divine Lord, came to congratulate him and presented him with gifts.

It was just a breakthrough to a minor realm. Qin Ming originally didn't want to make it so grand and extravagant, but he couldn't refuse the kindness of his fellow Daoists, so he had no choice but to accept it.

The intricacies of human relationships in the cultivation world will inevitably come back to haunt you sooner or later.

Qi Xiaoyu and Diaoyun Sou could only sigh, remembering that they were both fellow cultivators from the human realm.

Now, however, we have to address them as "senior" from top to bottom, which makes me feel a sense of things having changed.

The Xuan Guan Daoist from the Pill Pavilion of Tianxing City and Master Kongzhi also arrived. The two were deeply moved by Qin Ming's successful breakthrough to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm after surviving the minor tribulation.
"Fellow Daoist Li is indeed a person of extraordinary fortune. He broke through to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm in just over two hundred years. He truly makes us ashamed."

"Even within the Elders' Council of Tianxing City, there are very few people at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm; you could count them on one hand."

"I have heard that Fellow Daoist Li has obtained the qualification to attend the 'Little Mi Mountain Dharma Assembly'. With your current cultivation and luck, you will surely reap great rewards at that time."

Qin Ming also gestured for the two to sit down, then poured them a cup of spirit wine and introduced them:
"This spirit wine is called 'Void Heaven Inviting the Moon Nectar'. It was brewed by me alone, and the process was quite difficult. On this auspicious day, fellow Daoists, please have a taste."

The Taoist priest in the black crown seemed unfazed, raising his wine cup and taking a sip. However, his expression froze completely, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Master Kongzhi, who was sitting to the side, waved his hands repeatedly and refused, saying, "Monks cannot break the precept against alcohol. I thank Fellow Daoist Li for his kindness, but I will offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."

at this time.

The Taoist priest, Xuan Guan, had just recovered from the unique taste of the Void Heaven Inviting the Moon Elixir and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:

"It's actually a top-tier sixth-order immortal brew! It has immense benefits for those in the Void Refinement stage in terms of mana cultivation and comprehension of spatial laws. Fellow Daoist Li's immortal brew is truly unique in the Spirit Realm, a one-of-a-kind!"

"To have tasted such a divine brew in my lifetime, my path to immortality is truly fulfilling! How wonderful!"

Upon hearing this, Master Kongzhi, who was standing nearby, immediately lost his composure and exclaimed in surprise:
"What?! A top-tier sixth-grade immortal wine!"

Without a word, he put down the teacup he had just raised, picked up the cup of Void Heaven Inviting the Moon Elixir again, and said calmly and composedly:

"Since it is Fellow Daoist Li's joyous day of breakthrough, what's wrong with this old monk breaking his vows once?"

"I'll drink first, Fellow Daoist Li, please feel free to drink as you like."

After saying this, Master Kongzhi drank the spirit wine in his hand in one gulp.

Qin Ming: “.”

Next.

The Devouring Rats ate with the others, indulging in a hearty feast.

Qin Ming took this opportunity to learn about the recent situation from Zi Chen Shenjun, the Grand Commander of Tianxing City, and Xuan Guan Daoren.

However, most of the news was bad news about the insect invasion and its expanding reach.

Moreover, the situation has already begun to show signs of turning sour.

Zi Chen Shenjun took a sip of spiritual wine, savored it for a moment, and then said, "The insect plague is getting worse and worse. I have learned from the upper echelons of the sect that insects of the seventh rank and above have begun to pass through the wormhole. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to end this."

"This insect plague that broke out in the demon race's spiritual realm is almost impossible to disappear in less than several thousand years."

“That’s right. I’ve also heard my master mention this matter. The insect swarm in the Chishui Wasteland is incessant. It’s said that a powerful being from our human race even went to the site to try to destroy the void wormhole inside, but it seems to have ended in failure,” Master Kongzhi said with a solemn expression.

When this point is mentioned...

Master Kongzhi seemed to remember something and then asked Qin Ming, "Didn't you say before that Fellow Daoist Li had a falling out with that Insect Demon Yin Lingzi?"

"Why have you been getting so close to this person lately?"

"To be honest, Li and I did have some minor disagreements in the past, but that was a long time ago. By chance, we made peace with each other," Qin Ming explained slowly. "And after some transactions, we even became good friends."

Upon hearing this, Divine Lord Zichen nodded: "That's for the best. This person has suddenly risen to prominence in recent years. Not only has he served as the commander of the allied forces of many forces in the Red Water Wasteland, but his cultivation has also greatly improved. The fact that he was able to kill General Ao Qing on his own is enough to explain everything."

Qin Ming, on a sudden impulse, immediately followed the other party's words and offered a reminder:
"Just before I broke through, Fellow Daoist Yin Lingzi came to Little Turtle Peak to exchange for some supplies and told me something extremely important. Although it will probably reach the upper echelons of the human race soon, I still want to remind the Grand Commander."

"A few days ago, Fellow Daoist Yin Lingzi stumbled upon a demonic plot in the Red River Wasteland. According to him, demonic spies have secretly infiltrated the human territory, preparing to use the insect swarm to disrupt internal strife and seize the opportunity to break through our human defenses set up in the Heavenly Ridge Mountains."

"And even the Demon Clan's general, Maguro, has personally led his men here. It seems they have something big on their minds."

The words fell.

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

"What? This happened!"

The infiltration of demons into the human realm is a serious matter, especially if it involves high-ranking demons.

The human race's border monitoring and defense formations have always been extremely powerful, but unexpectedly, the demon race exploited a loophole.

Without an inside agent among the human race, the demon race alone could never have accomplished this.

Zi Chen Divine Lord's expression turned extremely ugly, and he asked Qin Ming again to confirm, "This matter is of utmost importance. Is what Fellow Daoist Li said true?"

“It’s absolutely true. Yin Lingzi returned to the sect to report immediately after changing the items two days ago. I estimate that Ancestor Renshui has already reported this matter to the higher-ups, and it will be known to Tianxing City within the next two days,” Qin Ming said.

After learning about this matter.

The people of Tianxing City also bid farewell to Qin Ming and left, rushing back to plan how to deal with the matter.

More than half a month later.

After Little Turtle Peak, things finally calmed down.

A streak of green light descended from the southern region, gradually approaching the main peak.

The light dissipated, revealing the figure of Elder Tu'e of the Flower Spirit Clan.

When he came in and saw Qin Ming, even though he was at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, he felt that he couldn't see through Qin Ming at all.

So he put on a smile and said to him:
"The Flower Spirit Clan congratulates Lord Wangyue on breaking through to the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm. Since we were unable to meet you before, our Holy Lord has invited Fellow Daoist Li to come and have a chat. She said she wants to meet you in person."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming replied calmly, unsurprisingly, "Oh? Your noble ancestor, who has achieved the Fusion Stage, wishes to see me?"

"Hehe! That's right. We'll be old neighbors from now on, and we'll inevitably have to interact and communicate in the future. Fellow Daoist Li, there's no need to be nervous. The Holy Lord simply wants to meet you, this young talent, in person; he has no other intentions."

Qin Ming was naturally not nervous, after all, he had already met the Holy Lord of Ten Thousand Flowers and had gone through thick and thin together.

So he nodded in agreement.

"Since it is Senior Wan Hua who has so kindly invited me, I am naturally more than happy to accept."

Elder Tu'e smiled and stroked his beard, nodding. He felt that this human cultivator was very easy to get along with and didn't have many hidden agendas.

I don’t know why.

This person gave him an inexplicably warm feeling.

Like the previous Insect Demon Yin Lingzi and Xuan Turtle God, they were all quite in line with his temperament.

Subsequently.

Qin Ming gave instructions to the Devouring Sky Rat, then set off with Elder Tu'e, flying towards the spiritual land of the Flower Spirit Clan.
