September.

There was a slight chill in the air of the Yunze Wilderness.

The 'Cloud Marsh Immortal City', jointly built by the Spirit Feather Sect and the Golden Cloud Valley, was under fervent construction.

Accompanied by the arrival of elite cultivator reinforcements from the two sects.

The battle camp pioneering the Spirit Feather Sect's front line stabilized its position.

There were no more large-scale casualties.

Batch after batch of loose cultivators also gradually arrived at Qingyang Market by Dharma Ship.

They all eagerly hoped to render great service to their sect and obtain a 'Foundation Establishment Pill'.

From there, they could reverse their fate on the path of immortality.

The shantytown remained as it was.

Security grew increasingly chaotic, with people mysteriously disappearing from time to time.

Qin Ming also reduced unnecessary outings.

On this day.

In Su Yuqing's courtyard.

When Qin Ming saw Su Yuqing again, he had already broken through to the seventh layer of the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Entering the realm of a late-stage Qi Cultivator.

The speed of his cultivation truly made Qin Ming envious.

Qin Ming initially thought he had finally managed to break through to the fourth layer of the Qi Cultivation Stage some days ago.

He was gradually closing the gap, but it turned out to be widening.

'Comparisons can be infuriating!'

'This Su Yuqing not only has outstanding talent in alchemy, but his cultivation also progresses effortlessly.'

However, Qin Ming's envy was just envy.

He wasn't anxious; as long as he diligently farmed, he would surpass Su Yuqing one day.

But just now.

Qin Ming borrowed Su Yuqing's alchemy room to attempt refining Tier One Low-Grade pills a few times.

Without exception, all attempts ended in failure.

He felt exceedingly dejected.

"Brother Qin, I heard you're moving to live inside the market?" Su Yuqing asked leisurely while sipping tea.

Qin Ming rubbed his face vigorously with both hands.

Then picked up the tea Su Yuqing poured for him, took a sip, refreshing his spirit.

He seemed still not recovered from the blow of alchemical failure.

"Yes, who did you hear it from? Could it be from Fellow Daoist Guu?"

From Su Yuqing's tone, Qin Ming knew that Guu Qingzhao had secretly done Su Yuqing a favor again.

Su Yuqing silently nodded in agreement.

"It's also good for you to move in. The situation has indeed become increasingly chaotic recently."

Qin Ming pondered for a while, then asked, "Brother Su, aren't you planning to move into the market?"

"This Earth Vein Fire can temporarily stay here."

Su Yuqing smiled serenely, boasting, "I believe I still have some ability to protect myself. Besides, I plan to live here only for one more year before leaving. I don't want to move back and forth."

"Once I leave, you can continue renting this house and use the alchemy room."

Qin Ming's eyes lit up upon hearing this, "Really?!"

"Hmm, with the High-Grade Alchemy Technique gained, I won't need this Earth Fire," Su Yuqing said casually.

Qin Ming never expected.

That he could inherit Su Yuqing's alchemy room.

Instantly he was elated.

The previous depression was swept away.

"Come, Brother Su, let me toast you with tea as a substitute for wine."

...

Time passed slowly.

The end of the year arrived once again.

The third season of Golden Spirit Rice in the Spirit Field matured.

Besides that, Cold Tobacco and Spirit Candle Fruit in the two acres of Spirit Medicine Field also matured.

Another plentiful harvest.

What excited Qin Ming the most was the entry harvest.

Even the latest-planted dozens of Tier One Middle-Grade Spirit Plants 'Black Orchid' matured and produced an entry.

Now the Spirit Field was dazzling with golden radiance:

[Name]: Golden Spirit Rice [Entry]: Weak Dharma Power (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Golden Spirit Rice [Entry]: Quality Enhancement (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Golden Spirit Rice [Entry]: Quality Enhancement (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Cold Tobacco [Entry]: Weak Soul Power x5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Cold Tobacco [Entry]: Ripening x5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Spirit Candle Fruit [Entry]: Regenerative Spirit Seed x3 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Black Orchid [Entry]: Weak Soul Power X5 (Maturity 100%, ready for harvest)

[Name]: Beast Fang Rice [Entry]: Weak Qi Blood x5 (Maturity 56%)

[Name]: Beast Fang Rice [Entry]: Ripening X5 (Maturity 58%)

The three acres of Beast Fang Rice would have to wait until next year to harvest.

However, he could first ripen the two Beast Fang Rice plants with entries to obtain them.

Half a day later.

In Qin Ming's Sea of Consciousness, added to the previous storage, many entry leaves appeared:

Weak Dharma Power X6

Weak Qi Blood X5

Weak Soul Power X10

Quality Enhancement X2

Ripening X10

Regenerative Spirit Seed X3

Qin Ming stared blankly at the numerous entries floating in his Sea of Consciousness, excited at heart.

With this batch of entries.

He might soon be able to advance several layers of the "Hundred Treasures Glaze Scripture"!

Besides that.

This year's Spirit Rice yield for Qin Ming was a record high.

Predictably remaining first place.

Regarding this outcome.

Both the Spirit Farmers and Spirit Feather Sect had expected it, given that Qin Ming mastered the High-Level Spirit Rain Technique.

Having an advantage they did not possess.

After tidying up.

Qin Ming, like last year, sent a Communication Talisman to Su Yuqing, asking him to come and harvest the Spirit Medicine.

When Su Yuqing arrived at the Spirit Field, he couldn't help but feel a slight shock.

"Brother Qin, I just don't understand."

"You broke through from a Low-Grade Spirit Plant Master to Middle-Grade in just one year."

"Yet instead of focusing on planting Spirit Plants."

"Why insist on learning alchemy?"

Qin Ming grinned, then looked at the [Weak Soul Power] X10 in his Sea of Consciousness.

He smiled silently.

...

Inside a house in the shantytown.

The first thing Qin Ming did upon returning home.

Was to take out the piece of black withered vine.

"This cost me as much as three hundred Spirit Stones at the auction."

"I hope it doesn't disappoint me."

Qin Ming held the piece of black withered vine, studying it for quite a while.

But he was left without any clues.

He shook his head.

Came to a corner of the garden and casually planted it in the soil.

Qin Ming then thought to use the [Regenerative Spirit Seed] entry on this withered vine.

The blue leaf in his Sea of Consciousness shrank instantly.

At the moment he used the entry.

Suddenly within the flower bed, a giant purple spore sprouted, wrapping the withered vine.

After a while.

The purple spore began to wilt, seemingly absorbed by the black withered vine.

Thud! Thud!

A heartbeat sound suddenly echoed in Qin Ming's mind.

Seemingly some mysterious connection formed with the black withered vine.

He cautiously went closer to take a look.

A dark-colored sprout emerged from the black withered vine!

Rejuvenating with vitality!

"Wow, it's incredible! Can it really be revived?!"

"What kind of thing is this? It even seems like it's making a heartbeat sound?"

"Could I be hearing things?"

Qin Ming pondered confusedly for a moment and shook his head.

"Let's plant it for now and see."

He hesitated for a while, then paused.

"Or... should I try ripening it?"

After much thinking, Qin Ming decided to use a [Ripening] entry.

With a thought, a green leaf in his Sea of Consciousness vanished.

Landing on the black withered vine.
