"Haha! Fellow Daoist Wei, if you need it, then naturally it's possible." Qin Ming's smile deepened.

He pondered for a moment, then said, "Hmm... let's do it this way. If Fellow Daoist Wei has wood attribute spiritual soil, Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Plant seeds, or other spiritual materials of equivalent value, I am willing to exchange."

"What does Fellow Daoist Wei think?"

Qin Ming knew that Wei Wuya, as the prodigy of the Thunder Origin Sect, had an extraordinary status and surely possessed many treasures. Calling him a 'walking treasury' was no exaggeration.

With such an opportunity, of course, he wanted to seize the moment to find what he lacked.

After hearing this, Wei Wuya's face showed a strange expression. He then patted his storage pouch, took out a jade box, and handed it to Qin Ming, saying, "Fellow Daoist Qin, see if this is acceptable?"

"It's quite a coincidence, indeed. I obtained this spiritual soil during a demon beast encirclement at Qianye Spirit Island some days ago."

Qin Ming opened the jade box, revealing a square foot of green spiritual soil, exuding a rich wood attribute aura.

"Tier Two High-Grade Xun Wood Spirit Soil!" Qin Ming exclaimed in surprise.

It truly was like finding a needle in a haystack, yet he got it effortlessly!

He had long heard from Aunt Long that spiritual soil would appear at the Qianye Spirit Island trade fair. However, before the trade happened, great changes engulfed the island. Unexpectedly, the spiritual soil came full circle, landing in his hands.

With this Xun Wood Spirit Soil, Qin Ming could plant the Tier Three Spirit Plant 'Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass' given by Nalan Xi.

Qin Ming immediately replied, "Fellow Daoist Wei, using this spiritual soil in exchange is more than sufficient."

"How about this, I won't take advantage of Fellow Daoist Wei. This square foot of Tier Two High-Grade spiritual soil is of high value."

"I'll exchange it for two jars of Spirit Fire Wine."

Wei Wuya's eyes lit up with joy and he exclaimed, "Very well, it's a deal!"

Qin Ming, for his part, adhered to the principle of goodwill. Meeting someone like Wei Wuya, he tried his best to build a connection, hoping that one day, he might obtain other significant information from him.

He could sense that Wei Wuya was friendly towards him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have easily offered the Tier Two High-Grade Xun Wood Spirit Soil for an exchange of spirit wine.

The exchange completed, both of them got what they needed and were content.

Wei Wuya then stood up and took his leave, saying, "Fellow Daoist Qin, the environment here is serene and otherworldly, accompanied by fine wine. It truly was worth the visit!"

"However, I must return to the sect to report, so I'll take my leave. If Fellow Daoist Qin has time, please visit our Thunder Origin Sect. You are most welcome."

"When the time comes, let Fellow Daoist Qin taste my collection of fine spirit wine, haha!"

Qin Ming also stood up, smiling humbly as he cupped his hands in return, "Most certainly!"

"Since Fellow Daoist Wei has important matters to attend to, I won't keep you any longer."

"Please!"

Subsequently, Qin Ming opened the Mist Illusion Realm and sent Wei Wuya off from Wangyue Island.

"Phew—"

"I never expected Wei Wuya to be such a great benefactor of mine. First, the Demon Ape, and now he's brought me the much-needed spiritual soil..."

"This person's nature is straightforward, unlike Zhao Wuji's calculative mind, making him worth befriending."

...

With the Xun Wood Spirit Soil, Qin Ming immediately began preparations for planting the Tier Three Spirit Plant, Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass.

"Hmm, I have the spiritual soil."

"According to the heritage of that Tier Three Spirit Plant Master, in the early stage of cultivating the Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass, one auxiliary spiritual material is required."

"That's the eggshell of a Tier Two avian demon beast, the Flame-tailed Nightingale."

Holding an ancient jade scroll, Qin Ming examined it carefully.

"This item... is probably only available in Vast Sea Immortal City, but it shouldn't be hard to acquire."

Recently, Qin Ming also had to care for his two injured spirit pets. He needed to use Ancient Wood Longevity Power to heal them every few days, thus he couldn't leave. So, he promptly called Wu Jiang over to ask for his help in running the errand.

A moment later.

Wu Jiang arrived in front of Qin Ming, glancing around cautiously and asking timidly, "Isle Master Qin, has Elder Wei left?"

He knew that when someone as prominent as Wei Wuya visited Wangyue Island, it was certainly related to the recent disturbances on the island.

Qin Ming nodded and then said to him, "Fellow Daoist Wei has already left. Besides, Fellow Daoist Wu, I need you to help me with something in the Vast Sea Immortal City."

Fellow Daoist Wu was surprised to hear that Wei Wuya had come over but nothing happened.

But when he heard that Qin Ming had another task for him, he immediately put on a cheerful smile, "Hehe! Isle Master Qin, just give the word, I'll handle it for you!"

Qin Ming said, "I need some eggshells of the Tier Two Middle-Grade Demon Beast, the Flame-tailed Nightingale. Please help me acquire some."

After speaking, Qin Ming took out a small bag of Spirit Stones from his storage pouch and tossed it to Wu Jiang.

"These Spirit Stones should be enough."

Wu Jiang took the Spirit Stone Bag but showed a troubled expression. He initially thought Qin Ming wanted him to gather some information like before.

But now, he was tasked with procuring materials from a Tier Two Middle-Grade Demon Beast, which was a bit beyond the capacity of a Qi Cultivation Novice like him.

"Isle Master Qin, these Tier Two materials... I'm not sure others will even entertain me..." Wu Jiang explained hesitantly.

It was only then that Qin Ming remembered that Tier Two Middle materials were restricted resources of major trade companies, and those big shops in Vast Sea Immortal City would only sell to big clients first.

He pondered for a moment and then handed a token to Wu Jiang, saying, "First, go find Guu Qingzhao from the Mirror Snow Pavilion, and if she doesn't have it, use this token to find Steward Lvu Liang in Vast Sea Immortal City."

Wu Jiang accepted the golden-embossed token, which was inscribed with the two characters 'Vast Sea'. His hand trembled in fear, almost dropping it.

"The Vast Sea Order!" Clearly, he had heard of this token before and knew what it represented.

The Vast Sea Order had always been personally issued by Master Vast Sea, representing the recognition of the Immortal City and was extremely limited in number.

Most importantly, with this token, one could freely access the core areas of Vast Sea Immortal City.

'I didn't think Isle Master Qin had even met Master Vast Sea and was given a Vast Sea Order. Truly, he is so modest.'

'We are both Loose Cultivators, why is he so exceptional?'

Afterward.

Wu Jiang happily took the token and went out to handle the task.

...

Qin Ming then came to the spot beneath his Lifebound Spirit Plant, the Longevity Vine, where he placed his two Beast Pets to continue healing and nurturing them with Plant Essence Qi.

"The injuries you two suffered this time are indeed severe, even affecting your origins. It will take at least several years to fully recover."

"But... hehe!"

While speaking, Qin Ming took out a delicate, long jade box in front of the Spirit Pets.

He opened the seal, and instantly, a ginseng-shaped Spirit Plant emitting an earthy-yellow spirit essence appeared before his eyes.

"With this item, you two will not only heal quickly but might even be reborn anew."

Under the Longevity Vine, the barely surviving Profound Water Crocodile and Silver-winged Frost Bee suddenly became spirited at the sight of the Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass, their weak bodies trembling with excitement.

The two beasts stared unwaveringly at the Spirit-Transforming Herb, drooling with anticipation.

"Hehe! I did say I would reward you two well, but let's not rush. I'll plant this herb first." Qin Ming, watching his Spirit Beasts' reactions, let out a laugh.

"This Tier Three Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass is indeed irresistibly attractive to Demon Beasts."

Next, Qin Ming first cleared out an area under the Lifebound Spirit Plant Longevity Vine, evenly placing a square foot of Fangxun Wood Spirit Soil there.

Then, he used a [Regenerative Spirit Seed] entry on the root-damaged Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass.

In an instant, a mass of purple spores appeared, enveloping the Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass which had been leaking Spiritual Qi, and the wounds on its roots began to rapidly heal, revitalizing the entire plant with renewed vitality.

Qin Ming's face lit up with joy. He then took out the Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass and planted it onto the Xun Wood Spirit Soil, before casting the Great Five Elements Technique to irrigate it.

Now, all that remained was for Wu Jiang to return with the Tier Two Demon Beast Eggshells, crush them and spread them evenly over the Xun Wood Spirit Soil, and the task would be complete.

The main function of the Tier Two Xuan-tailed Nightingale's eggshells is to maintain constant temperature in the Xun Wood Spirit Soil, and also prevent the Spiritual Qi within the soil from leaking into the surrounding ordinary Spiritual Soil.

Furthermore, it would slightly increase the fruit-bearing rate after the Demon Grass matured.

This was also the unique secret formula from the Tier Three Spirit Plant Master's inheritance.

Having finished these steps, Qin Ming used another [Strong Adaptation] entry, applying it to the Spirit-Transforming Demon Grass.

After all, as a Tier Three Spirit Plant, the Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Vein environment of Wangyue Island was still insufficient for its normal growth.
