The following days.
Wangyue Island returned to its former tranquility.
Qin Ming gathered the materials and took some time off to start a new round of brewing. Following the steps of the "Wine Immortal Divine Formula," he combined the spiritual materials, placed them into a specially made steamer, heated and distilled them with the Spirit-Devouring Poison Flame, and after two days and nights, he brewed more than ten jars of Jade Qilin Wine.
Subsequently, he stored them beneath the Purple Gold Bamboo Forest.
...
Besides this, Qin Ming recently fed a Demon Pill each to the Profound Water Crocodile and the Silver-winged Frost Bee.
After all, they are also their spoils of war.
On this day.
Qin Ming was at the entrance of his cave mansion under the Dragon Blood Divine Tree, leisurely sipping tea as he held the jade scroll of puppetry. Suddenly, his expression changed, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I've fed you so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and you're finally going to break through!"
"Not bad, not bad!"
The Profound Water Crocodile just sent him a message through its mind; the Demon Pill it swallowed had almost been digested, and it was ready to break through to a Tier Two Mid-Stage Great Demon.
Qin Ming immediately flew to the entrance of the hole the Profound Water Crocodile had dug to act as its Guardian.
Boom!
The Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth surged into the Profound Water Crocodile's body like a floodgate.
It lasted for several hours, and the aura on the Profound Water Crocodile's body began to rise continuously.
It kept its eyes tightly shut, with demonic power circulating continuously through its limbs and body.
Finally, there was a sudden tremor on its body, and a powerful aura spread out.
Its scale armor also changed, turning from purple-gold to dark-gold, with a hint of blood-red mixed in. Its massive body grew larger again, with explosive power brewing and surging within.
The Profound Water Crocodile slowly opened its slit pupils, exuding an aura that looked down on all the demons, with its entire body radiating a fierce and formidable might!
At this moment, the Profound Water Crocodile could potentially contend with a Tier Two Late Stage Great Demon.
With the Profound Water Crocodile's breakthrough complete, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gradually dissipated.
It shrank its size and climbed in front of Qin Ming, lifting its head proudly.
"A Celestial-Grade Bloodline truly is extraordinary. Cultivating at such a speed really is swift." Qin Ming patted the head of the Profound Water Crocodile.
To be honest, he felt somewhat envious of this guy.
Afterward, he went to take a look at the Silver-winged Frost Bee, discovering it was still in slumber.
Though the Silver-winged Frost Bee had not yet broken through, a Demon Flower had newly bloomed on the Longevity Vine, making Tier Two Mid-Stage merely a matter of time for it.
Outside the Spirit Island, after Wu Jiang's constant information probing during this time.
Qin Ming also learned about the changes on Qianye Island, and how the situation in the Cultivation Realm of the Spirit Nest Islands had become quite tense.
"The Thunder Origin Sect really did suffer a big loss this time. Not only did they lose a Tier Three Spirit Vein, but also one of their affiliated families." Qin Ming commented nonchalantly by the lakeside, drinking Spirit-Gathering Tea.
Wu Jiang took a sip of Spirit Tea, showing a savoring expression, and then said, "Indeed! Fellow Daoist Qin speaks rightly, especially with guys like Zhao Wuyang running away, it keeps everyone's hearts unsettled, becoming a major headache for the Thunder Origin Sect."
"I've also heard that the Demon Beasts in the Beast Roar Mountain Range have recently started exhibiting strange movements."
"It seems not only the Demon Ape lineage is stirring, but other Demon Beasts are also getting restless."
"It's said that the Vast Sea Immortal City has organized a Demon Beast Defense Army specifically for this."
"Considering all these complex factors, even the previously fiery conflict between the Spirit Feather Sect and Thunder Origin Sect has noticeably eased."
"Sigh! This situation changes so quickly!"
Qin Ming nodded, "Yes, things have indeed been a bit unstable recently, it's best to be cautious."
"By the way, how are your two children doing at the Thunder Origin Sect?" Qin Ming recalled to ask about this.
At this, Wu Jiang's face immediately fell, sighing: "Sigh~ I didn't expect the confrontation between the Thunder Origin Sect and Spirit Feather Sect to reach a point of life and death."
"Wangyue and Wangfeng, those two kids, are doing alright currently, receiving considerable attention and nurturing from the sect."
"It's just that I don't know what the future holds, in hindsight, I'm a bit regretful to have sent them to the Thunder Origin Sect so early, it might have been somewhat inappropriate."
Qin Ming, upon hearing this, comforted him: "Fellow Daoist Wu need not worry excessively, the current situation still doesn't clearly indicate who will win or lose."
"Let's hope so." Wu Jiang shook his head, sighing.
...
Two more days passed.
The peaceful days are always quite rare.
However, today, an unexpected visitor came to Wangyue Lake.
Qin Ming was in seclusion cultivation within his cave mansion.
Suddenly!
He abruptly opened his eyes, his formidable Divine Thought sweeping five miles outside Wangyue Island.
The Profound Water Crocodile and Silver-winged Frost Bee also flew out from their nests, appearing as if facing a formidable enemy.
Qin Ming's Divine Thought landed on the figure rushing towards Wangyue Island, and he involuntarily took a deep breath!
"The Double-Pupil Demon Ape!"
However, at this moment, this fierce one was covered in blood, seemingly having suffered significant injuries, and its original Tier Two Perfection aura had fallen to Late-stage Tier Two.
Even so, Qin Ming was on full alert, his expression extremely solemn.
"With a Mist Illusion Realm comparable to a Tier Three Array blocking, it shouldn't be able to come in, right?"
As he spoke, Qin Ming had already summoned his two beasts to his side and swiftly sent a Communication Talisman to Wu Jiang.
"Something big may happen on the island later, take your people to hide for now, do not come out."
Below the island, Wu Jiang, who was laboriously working in the Spirit Field, received the Communication Talisman, opened it, and his face immediately changed!
"Hurry! Something big is happening, everyone hide."
...
Outside Wangyue Island.
The Double-Pupil Demon Ape was panting heavily, its bizarre pupils glanced at the pink mist surrounding Wangyue Island, then looked behind it.
It immediately stopped hesitating, exhibiting its Lifebound Bloodline Divine Technique, the "Eye of Destruction," and leaped into the mist.
The demon ape's eyes suddenly exploded with two beams of divine light, and the Mist Illusion Realm, which was on par with a Tier Three Array, unexpectedly had no effect on it!
"It can break not only spells but also illusions!"
Seeing the demon ape rushing in unimpeded, heading towards the main peak's rear mountain.
Qin Ming calmly conveyed through thoughts to his two spirit pets: "Prepare for battle!"
"If it's at Late-stage Tier Two... it's not impossible to give it a try."
If it were the Double-Pupil Demon Ape in its prime, Qin Ming definitely would have fled, leaving the Wu Family to fend for themselves.
But the situation was different now.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Subsequently, Qin Ming led his two spirit pets flying towards the rear mountain of the main peak, ready and waiting.
Only half an incense stick later, a massive black shadow appeared before Qin Ming's eyes.
The Double-Pupil Demon Ape, upon breaching through the Mist Illusion Realm, immediately noticed the person and two beasts standing before it, revealing a look of surprise. Unexpectedly, there was another world here, with cultivators residing.
Its gaze fell upon the human in the middle, with a mere Early-stage Foundation Establishment, and it revealed a disdainful expression.
Before, for a human cultivator of such a level, it could effortlessly crush several with its hands.
Even more infuriating was the audacity of the human to enslave demon beasts, one of the reasons they, as demon beasts, most resented the Human Race.
Roar!
Seeing a human cultivator, the Double-Pupil Demon Ape immediately roared towards the sky, brandishing its heavy fists, charging towards Qin Ming!
Qin Ming did not shrink back, filled with fighting spirit, his entire body erupted with True Qi Blood Spirit, and a blood-colored giant ape phantom appeared behind him. His fingers clenched into fists, spanning several dozen feet, moving to meet the demon ape head-on!
