This period of time.

The Spirit Plants Qin Ming planted on the island have also matured one after another.

In the Spirit Pool at the foot of the main peak, a dozen green lotus pods hang like emeralds. The Jade Flower Spirit Lotus is a treasure in itself; the lotus seeds, pods, and roots can all be used in medicine and alchemy. They are extremely rare main materials for alchemy, rarely seen in the Cultivation Realm.

Even Su Yuqing, who resides in the resource-rich Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, has to entrust Qin Ming with their cultivation.

On the back mountain of the main peak, clusters of Mist Illusion Mushrooms have matured on over a hundred pieces of Tier Two Rotten Wood. The pink caps continuously emit pink mist.

Qin Ming guided all of them into the Mist Illusion Realm. As time goes on, if this continues, the mist guarding Wangyue Island will reach a terrifying degree.

Next.

Qin Ming had no choice but to leave Wangyue Island for a while.

Because he needs to prepare to advance to a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master and participate in the Plant Illusion Realm trial to obtain the Mother Qi of Ten Thousand Woods.

After informing Wu Jiang, Qin Ming summoned the Silver-winged Frost Bee and left Wangyue Island.

Having not left the island for a long time, he gazed at the world outside, feeling a sense of having been in a different world.

After its bloodline was enhanced, the flight speed of the Silver-winged Frost Bee increased significantly.

In less than half an hour, Qin Ming arrived at Celestial River Market.

After going through a security check, he entered the market.

This time, he didn't conceal his identity because he had to go to the Spirit Plant Master Guild to handle promotion matters.

He walked along the main road.

"Did I see that correctly?"

"Wasn't that senior who just passed by the Wangyue Island Master, Master Qin?"

"What? Isn't Wangyue Island surrounded by treacherous mist, where even late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators go without return?"

"It really is Elder Qin!"

"He's heading towards the Spirit Plant Master Guild."

"Could it be... that he's preparing to advance to a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master?"

"What remarkable Spirit Plant has Master Qin cultivated this time?"

"Indeed, as I said, how could anything happen to Master Qin?"

"First, he cultivated Spirit Nesting Rice, then refined Foundation Establishment Pills."

"He's truly a significant figure in the Spiritual Habitat Cultivation Realm now."

"It's impossible for him to pass away suddenly."

...

Within the market, Qin Ming's appearance sparked various discussions and speculations about Wangyue Island.

Qin Ming ignored these and went straight to the Spirit Plant Master Guild.

When he appeared there again, the Spirit Plant Master Record Officer responsible for registration was quite shocked.

When this white-haired officer heard that Elder Qin was here to prepare for the Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant promotion, he showed deep respect.

Then, Qin Ming took the Record Officer with him, amidst the gazes of everyone, and flew towards Wangyue Island.

As the two arrived near Wangyue Island, a vast pink mist began to appear.

The bald, white-haired officer hesitated and was reluctant to proceed.

"Haha, it's alright." Qin Ming raised his hand with a wave, and the mist instantly dispersed, revealing a passage large enough for two people to pass through.

The officer from the Spirit Plant Master Guild looked at this unbelievable scene, utterly astonished.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, such remarkable skills!"

Then.

The two entered Wangyue Island.

When the Record Officer saw the island's various rare High-Tier Spirit Plants, the booklet in his hand dropped to the ground with a 'thud'.

"This..."

"Fully mature Tier Two Top-Grade Spirit Plant, Jade Flower Spirit Lotus!"

"Tier Two Top-Grade Spirit Plant, Mist Illusion Mushroom—so it's this Spirit Plant that releases the mist to block the illusions of a Golden Core Ancestor."

"And... did I see that right?"

"Heavens... the legendary Dragon Blood Divine Tree!"

"And countless Tier Two spirit herbs and medicines..."

The officer from the Spirit Plant Master Guild was already numb with shock, remembering how awestruck he was the last time he saw Spirit Nesting Rice here.

He never expected this visit would broaden his horizons even more.

Some Spirit Plants existed only in books, rarely seen outside.

It was his first time seeing them with his own eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, no, Master Qin, I've finished the record on my end."

"Pardon my words, but Master Qin is the most impressive Spirit Plant Master I've ever seen in all my years as a Record Officer." The white-haired officer did not hold back in his praise of Qin Ming.

"As for the trial quota for advancing to Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master, I don't think anyone could compete with Master Qin."

After everything was handled, the Record Officer from the Spirit Plant Master Guild, looking back three times with each step, was escorted off Wangyue Island by Qin Ming.

Next.

Qin Ming was heading to Vast Sea Immortal City to participate in the Plant Illusion Realm trial review.

Before leaving, he had another word with Wu Jiang.

For this trip, Qin Ming brought along his two Spirit Pets, the Profound Water Crocodile and the Silver-winged Frost Bee.

Given everything that had happened over the past year, it was better to be cautious.

With these two highly capable Foundation Establishment Great Demons by his side, he could retreat safely even if he encountered danger.

Qin Ming sat on the Silver-winged Frost Bee, placed the Profound Water Crocodile into the Spirit Beast Bag, and turned into a silver Escape Light heading towards Vast Sea Immortal City, vanishing in an instant.

What used to take a whole day of travel to reach Vast Sea Immortal City now took less than two hours.

Upon arriving at Vast Sea Immortal City, Qin Ming didn't rush to find Guu Qingzhao from Mirror Snow Pavilion.

Instead, since the Plant Illusion Realm trial was about to start, he went directly to the headquarters of the Spirit Plant Master Guild within the Vast Sea Immortal City.

This time, the guild's guild leader, Liu Guchang, personally received Qin Ming.

He, too, was quite startled by the news relayed from Celestial River Market.

This young cultivator before him seemed likely to become, like himself, a Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master soon.

After some polite conversation.

Qin Ming learned that there were only three Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Plant Masters, including himself, participating in the Plant Illusion Realm trial review this time.

The other two were also quite advanced in age, hinting at the scarcity of Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Masters.

The two approached Qin Ming to show goodwill.

Arriving earlier, they had already heard of the significant likelihood of Qin Ming successfully advancing to Tier Two High-Grade.

As for them, they had little confidence and were merely trying their luck due to their advanced age.

Spirit Plant Masters who reach this stage become increasingly scarce.

Under the presiding of the guild leader, the ancient and magnificent Wood Array was activated.

Green radiance fell upon the three Spirit Plant Masters, and their figures vanished from where they stood.

The guild leader of the Spirit Plant Master Guild, Liu Guchang, gazed thoughtfully in the direction of the Wood Array.

"Guild leader, what do you think their chances are of passing the advancement trial?"

"Hmm, for the other two, it's hard to say, but I am quite optimistic about Fellow Daoist Qin."

"As long as he doesn't choose an overly difficult Illusion Realm, there should not be a problem."

"Does this mean the Cultivation Realm in Wei Country will soon have another Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master?"

"It's been decades since such a remarkable newcomer has emerged."

"We old folks should indeed make way for the talented ones."

...

The next moment.

The gaze of Guild Leader Liu Guchang fell on the wooden tablet representing Qin Ming's entrance.

Then, his expression became extremely complex, filled with confusion and surprise.

"Fellow Daoist Qin actually chose the Class A difficulty Plant Illusion Realm trial."

"If it were a Tier Two Low-Grade trial, it would be understandable, but this is a Tier Two High-Grade trial review, alas!"

"In the history of Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant Master trial reviews, no one in the Wei Country Cultivation Realm has ever passed such a difficult Illusion Realm."

"Since the creation of the Plant Illusion Realm, only a few Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Plant Masters have succeeded."

"Though Fellow Daoist Qin's accomplishments in Spirit Plant cultivation are high, isn't this somewhat overconfident?"

"Ah, let us wait and see."

...

Inside the Plant Illusion Realm.

It was still the same small wooden house. After Qin Ming made the choice for the Class A Plant Illusion Realm difficulty.

The wooden door creaked open with a "zi ga" sound.

BOOM!

A thunderous roar resounded in Qin Ming's eardrums.

Countless streams of molten lava and ash clouds soared into the sky!

A grand and majestic Flame Mountain Range appeared in Qin Ming's sight.

Waves of scorching heat surged towards him!
