"Exactly!"

"Seven days ago, Elder Wei in our Sect successfully broke through to the Golden Core Realm and assumed the position of Supreme Elder."

Han Lin's words revealed an immense sense of pride.

First, Elder Aoo sacrificed himself for the stability of the Cultivation Realm, then a newly ascended Golden Core Ancestor was born.

Old and new replacing each other, inheritance orderly, the Thunder Origin Sect's Dao lineage continues uninterrupted.

With a Celestial-Grade Spirit Root like Wei Wuya forming his core, and being relatively young, he can shelter the Thunder Origin Sect for hundreds of years without decline, enough to maintain the Sect's dominance in Wei Country.

"Haha! Then congratulations to your Sect for the birth of yet another powerful Golden Core Ancestor!" With a smile, Qin Ming accepted the gold embossed invitation that Han Lin handed over, and congratulated him in return.

Han Lin respected Qin Ming greatly, smiling with deep meaning as he said, "Speaking of which, Fellow Daoist Qin is truly the one whom we envy!"

"Oh? How so?" Qin Ming expressed a hint of doubt.

Han Lin explained, "Hehe! Fellow Daoist Qin is one of the cultivators that Elder Wei personally specified for special invitation after successfully breaking through to the Golden Core."

"The list of cultivators personally invited by Elder Wei, including Master Vast Sea, is only five people, and Fellow Daoist Qin is among them."

"It shows how highly Elder Wei regards Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Oh? Haha, I didn't expect to have such an honor," Qin Ming was somewhat surprised.

The Thunder Origin Sect's Golden Core ceremony, ordinary forces and cultivators aren't qualified to attend.

Loose cultivator can only look on helplessly.

Only some major forces and the top cultivators of Wei Country's Cultivation Realm are qualified to receive an invitation to witness such a grand occasion at the Thunder Origin Sect.

After all, a Golden Core Stage Great Power is already considered the apex of Wei Country's Cultivation Realm, with only three in total.

Not only does Qin Ming qualify for an invitation, but he was also personally invited by Wei Wuya; just this aspect fills him with prestige.

"Haha! Speaking of which, if it weren't for my responsibility in handling invitations for Vast Sea Immortal City, I still haven't met Fellow Daoist Qin face to face."

"Han has long heard of Fellow Daoist Qin's great name, and today I finally fulfilled a long-standing wish, hahaha!" Han Lin flattered him.

"Since the invitation has been delivered to Fellow Daoist Qin, I must head to the next location. When Fellow Daoist Qin attends, he will be welcomed with open arms within the Sect!"

"Half a month later, our Sect's Dharma Ship will be in Vast Sea Immortal City to welcome invited cultivators to the Sect. Fellow Daoist Qin can either travel by it or independently as preferred."

Qin Ming nodded at this, "I won't see Fellow Daoist Han off then, and I will certainly accept the invitation when the time comes."

After Han Lin bid farewell to Qin Ming, the Thunder Origin Sect's Dharma Ship turned into a stream of light and vanished into the sky.

"Who would have thought! Wei Wuya is indeed a prodigious talent."

"In such a gamble, he managed to achieve the Golden Core in one stroke; likely the quality of the core is not low..."

After learning of Wei Wuya's successful core formation, Qin Ming couldn't help but show a bit of envy.

In the following days.

The sensational news of Wei Wuya's ascension to Golden Core Master swept through every corner of Wei Country's Cultivation Realm like a hurricane.

Its momentum almost overshadowed the ongoing Beast Tide.

"Oh~"

"Going to the Thunder Origin Sect's banquet means gifts are unavoidable."

"With Wei Wuya hosting a Golden Core ceremony, the gifts shouldn't be shabby or unpresentable."

"What would be appropriate to give?"

Qin Ming paced back and forth at the entrance of the Cave Mansion, pondering the matter of gifts for the occasion.

Half a month passed in a flash.

Qin Ming left the Profound Water Crocodile to guard the house, summoned the Silver-winged Frost Bee, and departed Wangyue Island, preparing to attend the Thunder Origin Sect's banquet.

Riding the Silver-winged Frost Bee at lightning speed, an hour later, Qin Ming arrived at Vast Sea Immortal City.

After the siege of the Spirit Nest Islands was over, the demon beasts around the Immortal City calmed considerably.

No longer organizing large-scale Beast Tide attacks on the city.

After sending a transmission to Lvu Liang, shortly after, Lvu Liang came out to open the Array, allowing Qin Ming to enter the city.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you're invited by the Thunder Origin Sect to attend the Golden Core ceremony, right?" With a smile on his face, Lvu Liang asked, quite enviously.

Attending such a ceremony marks a significant milestone on the path of Cultivation.

Qin Ming nodded, and after talking for a bit, they parted ways.

He learned that several major forces in Mirror Snow Pavilion and Vast Sea Immortal City received an invitation.

Thus he planned to proceed with the group, not standing out.

Half a day later.

Qin Ming boarded the Thunder Origin Sect's Dharma Ship with Guu Qingzhao and others. Mirror Snow Pavilion was represented by her and Huangfu Qii.

On the other side, he saw Xu Jing among the Pill Furnace Pavilion group.

Some eminent cultivators from Vast Sea Immortal City were also on the Dharma Ship, such as Great Alchemist Sunx Jinnian, Artifact Refining Master Fang Ye, and others.

Finally, above Vast Sea Peak, a white light streaked by, and the spiritual pressure of a Golden Core Master descended upon the Dharma Ship.

It turned out to be Master Vast Sea Nalan Xi personally going forward.

The elders of the Thunder Origin Sect were extremely respectful as they welcomed Master Nalan Xi into the ship's room.

The setting sun slanted west.

When the timing seemed about right, the Thunder Origin Sect's Dharma Ship started, and instantly turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the horizon.

The journey ahead was quite remote; even with the Thunder Origin Sect's large Dharma Ship, it requires several days of flight to arrive.

Along the way, Qin Ming chatted with Guu Qingzhao and Huangfu Qii.

During this time, amidst the group's curious glances, he was called by Master Vast Sea for a private conversation.

Nalan Xi was primarily concerned about her Spirit Pet and inquired about the progress of Qin Ming's cultivation of the Spirit-Transforming Demon Fruit.

Of course, Qin Ming couldn't hand over the Spirit Fruit so quickly; he had to stall for a bit longer.

"Please rest assured, Senior, after my careful cultivation, the Spirit-Transforming Demon Fruit has begun fruiting, and will mature in two years."

On hearing this, a rare smile appeared on the solemn face of Nalan Xi.

"By the way, I heard the High-Grade Soul Reviving Pill of Elder Aoo was made by Friend Qin?" Nalan Xi suddenly changed the topic, casually throwing out a surprising statement.

Qin Ming thought privately that the movements within Vast Sea Immortal City can't escape this person's watchful eye, and the matters in the Thunder Origin Sect's Linglong Pavilion were probably already fully investigated.

With thoughts racing, Qin Ming honestly admitted, "Reporting to Senior, indeed, the Life-Restoring Pill was secretly commissioned by Master Wei to me back then."

"Fortunately, it was crafted successfully, and did not delay the significant affairs of the seniors."

"Friend Qin's remark is off the mark. Honestly, if not for your High-Grade Soul Reviving Pill, which temporarily boosted Elder Aoo's cultivation to eliminate the demon."

"Otherwise, in the battle at Yiling Valley, the three of us would have had no certainty in exterminating the Demon Vine; it was highly likely to evade into Beast Roar Mountain Range."

"If so, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Speaking of which, you should be credited, Friend Qin."

"I never imagined Friend Qin's Alchemy Skill has reached the peak of Tier Two, likely... the Cultivation Realm in Wei Country might soon see its first Tier Three Alchemy Grandmaster."

Nalan Xi looked at Qin Ming, speaking meaningfully.

"Haha, Senior overly praises me. Exorcising demons is our duty, and being able to assist the seniors is an honor for me."

"There's no need for merit calculation."

"As for becoming a Tier Three Alchemist, that's too distant for me; there still remains a long road ahead." Qin Ming answered modestly and impeccably.

Master Nalan Xi smiled slightly and said, "Friend Qin, are you really giving up the merit?"

"I had planned to reward you with High-Grade Spirit Stones according to your achievements."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming's spirit was greatly uplifted.

"Cough! If Senior insists and believes I deserve this credit, everything will be up to Senior!"

"..."

"Additionally, I wish to purchase Life-Restoring Pills from you, Friend Qin, do you still have more?" Nalan Xi asked directly.

Without hesitation, Qin Ming nodded eagerly, "I managed to craft four pills, after handing two to the Thunder Origin Sect, I still have the last two."

Then Qin Ming took out one ordinary Life-Restoring Pill and one High-Grade Soul Reviving Pill and handed them to Master Nalan Xi.

"Hmm, indeed it's impressive."

Nalan Xi then took out five High-Grade Spirit Stones to complete the transaction with him.
