After spending a day at the Thunder Origin Sect.

Qin Ming's perspective greatly expanded as he met many of the top cultivators in Wei Country.

More importantly, the relationship between Qin Ming and Wei Wuya wasn't bad to begin with, and this trip further strengthened his ties with Wei Wuya, the Golden Core Ancestor.

Just for this reason alone, Qin Ming's trip was worth it.

At the same time, it wasn't hard to see.

Wei Wuya also had great appreciation for Qin Ming and had repeatedly tried to recruit him into the Thunder Origin Sect.

However, Qin Ming politely declined each time.

"Oh, right."

"I heard from Elder Tian and the others that two disciples of our sect, Wu Wangfeng and Wu Wangyue, seem to have known Fellow Daoist Qin before?" Wei Wuya savored the Jade Qilin Wine that Qin Ming had gifted him, reminiscing as he casually asked Qin Ming.

When everyone else had left, leaving the two of them alone, Wei Wuya dropped his previous formalities and eagerly drank the spirit wine, then relaxedly chatted with Qin Ming.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming smiled indifferently, "Oh? Hehe, that's right. These two kids are Spirit Farmers from my island, members of the Wu Family clan."

"Hahaha! I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Qin to be so generous, to actually hand over two extremely talented disciples to my Thunder Origin Sect."

"Just for this, I must toast to you." Wei Wuya laughed.

"Sigh! Elder Wei, please don't tease me. With my meager cultivation, I wouldn't dare mislead those kids."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, your words are too modest. At present, in Wei Country, in terms of Alchemy Skill and the Path of Spiritual Plants, no one can surpass you."

"If you aren't qualified, then no one else is either."

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Qin, when there are no outsiders present, there's no need to be restrained; we can just address each other as fellow daoists."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, with your good fortune, to have come from being a mere Spirit Farmer of the Spirit Feather Sect to where you are today, plus your extraordinary talent in Alchemy Dao and spiritual plants, I believe Core Formation is only a matter of time for you."

"Uh... Fellow Daoist Wei, you're really flattering me. I'm currently only at the Early-stage Foundation Establishment... I wouldn't dare to hope for the Golden Core Dao..."

Qin Ming's Concealing Breath Technique from the Ancient Wood Longevity Technique was so effective that even someone like Wei Wuya, a Golden Core Ancestor, couldn't discern Qin Ming's actual cultivation level.

Otherwise, given his Four-Element Pseudo Spirit Root aptitude, advancing too quickly might attract too much attention.

Even when facing trusted individuals, it's important to conceal one's true abilities appropriately.

"Since those two children of the Wu Family have joined my sect, I will naturally take care of them. Fellow Daoist Qin, rest assured."

"Hehe, then I thank Fellow Daoist Wei."

After this ceremony, Qin Ming managed to fully open up his network among the Golden Core masters.

First, he had Master Vast Sea Nalan Xi entrust him with growing spiritual plants and trading spirit pills, and now he had formed ties with someone like Wei Wuya, a Great Cultivator and master of a sect.

Any developments in the Cultivation Realm of Wei Country could be directly known through these two.

"Fellow Daoist Qin should visit our sect more often in the future."

"I might still trouble you with pill concoction."

After the last incident, Wei Wuya was greatly impressed by Qin Ming's Alchemy Skill.

He never expected Qin Ming to successfully concoct the Life-Restoring Pill with just one set of materials.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, feel free to visit my Wangyue Island too."

...

Qin Ming stayed at the Thunder Origin Sect for a day.

He broadened his perspective, witnessing the foundation of a significant sect.

Next.

After the Golden Core Ceremony ended, various forces began to disperse.

Qin Ming also bid farewell to Wei Wuya and headed back to his island.

On the Dharma Ship returning to Vast Sea Immortal City.

Guu Qingzhao's beautiful eyes sparkled, "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Qin to not only be highly regarded by Master Vast Sea but also have a close relationship with the newly ascended Elder Wei of Thunder Origin Sect!"

"Hehe, it's just that the two masters have found some tasks for which they can make use of me; we're not that familiar." Qin Ming spoke truthfully.

"Oh, by the way, I have successfully planted the Five Elements Primordial Spirit Peach Tree, but it'll take some time for the Spiritual Peaches to mature."

Guu Qingzhao heard this and smiled softly, "As expected of you, Fellow Daoist Qin. My second uncle will be extremely pleased to hear this news."

"I heard that at Elder Wei's ceremony, you gifted a rare spirit wine rarely seen in the Cultivation Realm?"

Qin Ming's face twitched upon hearing this, thinking to himself how fast the news spread.

He immediately took another jar of Jade Qilin Wine from his storage pouch and handed it to Guu Qingzhao, saying, "This wine is called Jade Qilin Wine, better than the Spirit Fire Wine I brewed before."

"Please, Fellow Daoist Guu, auction this jar of spirit wine for me, preferably in exchange for high-grade Spirit Stones."

Guu Qingzhao took the Jade Qilin Wine, a rare trace of joy surfacing on her exceptionally beautiful face.

Qin Ming learned that she also successfully broke through to the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment a year ago, likely using the spirit pills he consigned for auction.

As for this jar of Jade Qilin Wine, it mattered not to him whether the Mirror Snow Pavilion kept it or auctioned it; he would just collect the Spirit Stones.

After a seven-day arduous journey.

The Thunder Origin Sect's Dharma Ship returned to Vast Sea Immortal City.

Fortunately, during these days, no beast groups came to assault the city, and the situation remained stable.

After bidding farewell to Master Vast Sea and Guu Qingzhao, Qin Ming returned alone to Wangyue Island.

In the days that followed.

It was just as Qin Ming had heard at the Thunder Origin Sect.

The Profound Creek Sect of Liang Country dispatched two Golden Core Masters and hundreds of high-tier Dharma Ships, along with thousands of cultivators, more than a hundred of whom were in the Foundation Establishment Stage, to support the Cultivation Realm of Wei Country, joining forces with various sects to eradicate the rampant beast calamities.

With Liang Country's powerful involvement, within half a year, even two Tier Three Demon Kings in the Beast Roar Mountain Range were slain.

After this, most of the beast tides in Wei Country were driven back to the vicinity of the Beast Roar Mountain Range.

The human race's counter-offensive seemed quite promising.

Two Tier Three Demon Pills could nurture two Fake Pill Stage ancestors.

Everything seemed to be heading towards a favorable situation.

...

However.

In the depths of the Beast Roar Mountain Range.

Two figures stood in the void.

One of them was a Tier Three Heaven-Devouring Rat Demon King.

"Reporting to you, sir, the Golden Roc Demon King of the Golden Light Cave refused to heed our warnings and insisted on avenging its Thunder Roc clan, recklessly attacking Vast Sea Immortal City."

"It fell into the trap set by those few human Golden Cores and was jointly killed by them."

"It even caused the Red Spirit Demon King of the Fire Feather Race to fall into the same trap."

The Gray Rat Demon King adopted a very low posture, respectfully addressing the demon king beside him.

Beside the Mouse King stood a blue-faced man with two horns, exuding explosive muscles, his arms and torso covered with a layer of blue scales, and a blue flood dragon tail trailed behind him.

An ancient bloodline's suppression pulsed from him, commanding respect without anger, making even the Tier Three Mouse King tremble before him.

This man, in his flood dragon form, was already a half-transformed world-shocking great demon, his cultivation level at least at the late-stage Tier Three.

"Just an ignorant bird courting death."

"It doesn't matter."

"How's the negotiation with the Silver Moon Race and that old fellow from the Lud Clan going?"

"Reporting to you, sir, the Clan Leader Lud agreed to ally with us, but the Silver Moon Race... is a bit tricky... I'm still negotiating."

"Keep pushing forward."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The Heaven-Devouring Rat Demon King was extremely cautious before the blue-faced man, drenched in sweat.
