Chapter 98 I Have a Longevity Vine

The moment the Black Vine touched the Origin Qi of Myriad Wood.

It was like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food, recklessly lunging forward to devour and absorb it.

Immediately after.

The Black Vine began to grow wildly again, and its aura also began to transform.

Strands of profound black light emanated from around the vine.

*Swishing, swishing, swishing!* The entire Black Vine continuously grew larger, and only stopped growing when it reached a height of fifty feet.

In an instant.

The eye-shaped objects on the surface of the vine began to change shape, transforming into twisted purple Runes.

The Poisonous Stingers on it also became illusory from being transparent.

Having absorbed this wisp of Origin Qi of Myriad Wood, in just an instant, the entire Spirit Plant underwent incredible changes.

Following that, dozens of Grey Skull Flower Buds grew again on the vine.

They were the size of fists and shaped like skulls.

The entire Black Vine had clearly advanced again, becoming completely different from before.

Immediately afterward, a rich Plant Essence, like a gentle stream, drew an arc in the air and surged into Qin Ming's body.

Qin Ming felt an immense vitality feeding back into him.

He hurriedly sat down cross-legged next to his Life-Bound Spirit Plant, activated the *Ancient Wood Longevity Skill*, and began to cultivate.

Specks of Spirit Light surrounded Qin Ming's body.

A wisp of Plant Essence composed of green light, like a ribbon, connected the Black Vine and Qin Ming.

It was like countless green shooting stars, drilling into Qin Ming's chest.

In an instant.

Buzz~ A phantom flickering with cyan light appeared behind Qin Ming.

The facial features of the cyan phantom were slightly blurred, but it could be seen that it was very similar in appearance to Qin Ming.

It struck the same pose as Qin Ming, sitting with its eyes tightly closed.

This continued for a long time.

Qin Ming then slowly opened his eyes.

The cyan phantom behind him also disappeared into his body.

"Just this once, the cultivation progress of the Supreme Wood Dharma Body actually advanced by one-tenth." Excitement flickered in Qin Ming's eyes.

He could clearly feel that his Plant Affinity and his control over the surrounding Spirit Plants had greatly increased.

Moreover, his Enlightenment regarding Wood-type Spells had also increased exponentially.

Just then.

Qin Ming looked at his Life-Bound Spirit Plant in front of him, and four golden Entry words refreshed among the dozens of Grey Skull Flower Buds: [Name]: Longevity Vine [Entry]: Weak Lifespan X5 (Maturity Level 2%)

　　[Name]: Longevity Vine [Entry]: Time-Space Leaf X5 (Maturity Level 3%)

　　[Name]: Longevity Vine [Entry]: Vital Energy and Blood Essence X1 (Maturity Level 2%)

　　[Name]: Longevity Vine [Entry]: Great Five Elements Art (Maturity Level 2%)

　　[Vital Energy and Blood Essence]: The power of essence condensed by a certain plant after absorbing a large amount of Essence Blood.

　　[Great Five Elements Art]: Advanced version of the Advanced Spirit Rain Technique, can mobilize specific Five Elements Spirit Qi. After casting it on Spirit Plants that require Five Elements Spirit Qi, it not only increases the harvest, but also shortens the Maturity Level of Spirit Plants to a certain extent.

"Longevity Vine!"

"Even the name has changed, it seems this Life-Bound Spirit Plant has really advanced."

"The effect of this Origin Qi of Myriad Wood on Spirit Plants is even much stronger than the Ripening Word and that Blood Bead."

Qin Ming's face lit up with joy, not expecting four powerful Entries to refresh again.

He immediately stopped hesitating and threw all the remaining five wisps of Origin Qi of Myriad Wood to his Life-Bound Spirit Plant.

*Hong!* As these five wisps of Origin Qi of Myriad Wood were fed, the Longevity Vine grew wildly again.

After about fifteen minutes.

A towering tree, fully dozens of feet tall, resembling a monster covered in huge tentacles.

Appeared in Qin Ming's sight.

He stood beneath it, appearing extremely small.

What followed was an even more immense Plant Essence, converging into a river, pouring into Qin Ming's body like a galaxy.

*Hong!* The cyan phantom behind Qin Ming reappeared, and continuously solidified, its facial features also gradually becoming clearer.

Slowly, it became almost identical to Qin Ming.

As the *Ancient Wood Longevity Skill* circulated. In the darkness.

Qin Ming's entire being seemed to transform into an ancient tree, silent and weathered, an immense power of time descended upon him.

It was as if he was constantly experiencing the flourishing and withering of years, the vicissitudes of life, and the cycle of time.

The cyan phantom behind him continuously grew larger, stopping only when it reached a height of thirty feet.

After a long while.

Qin Ming opened his eyes, a look of great joy on his face! Through this cultivation, he directly advanced the cultivation progress of the Supreme Wood Dharma Body by another fifty percent, he was not far from the true Supreme Wood Dharma Body.

Qin Ming's mind sparked, and he casually performed Hand Seals and pointed a finger.

A green vortex appeared above his head, countless Wood Thorns emitting a cold light, like a rainstorm, launched towards the open space he pointed at.

*Thump thump thump!* This was the Arrow Rain Technique, one of the most difficult group damage Spells to master among Wood-type Spells.

Its destructive power was extremely great.

Now, Qin Ming had not practiced it much, but in the darkness, many Wood-type Enlightenments emerged in his mind, and he casually used it.

At the same time.

Those dozens of Grey Skull Flower Buds had also fully bloomed, and seemed to be able to mature before long.

"Uh, isn't this a bit too ostentatious?" Qin Ming raised his head and looked at his Life-Bound Spirit Plant.

The moment he had this thought.

The entire Longevity Vine completely turned illusory, merging into one with the air. Not only could the naked eye not detect its existence, even Qin Ming's Divine Sense could not sense it.

If Qin Ming was not connected to it heart and soul, he would have thought it had disappeared.

"To actually have such concealment abilities, this really saves me a lot of worry!" Qin Ming couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Through this experiment, Qin Ming discovered that this Origin Qi of Myriad Wood was no small matter.

No wonder even a Second Tier Top-Grade Spirit Plant Master like Zhuang Xiran was so eager for it.

It seems that if there is a chance in the future, he can get more Origin Qi of Myriad Wood.

However, this item seems to only exist in the Flora Illusion Realm.

Qin Ming's Supreme Wood Dharma Body cultivation progress was over halfway, and he felt that his Magic Power Cultivation, which had been stagnant for a long time, faintly had a feeling of Breakthrough.

He immediately took out Five-Color Rice, casually built a stove, and directly cooked a large pot.

After eating the Five-Color Spirit Rice, he then took out an Essence Nurturing Pill and swallowed it.

Double pronged approach!

He immediately activated the *Ancient Wood Longevity Skill*, and after the Medicinal Power dissolved, he began to Circulating Energy through the Circulatory Cycle.

As expected of Second-Order Spirit Rice, the increase in Magic Power brought about by the Five-Color Spirit Rice was very considerable.

In addition to this.

Qin Ming clearly felt that when the Spirit Qi between Heaven and Earth passed through his Spirit Root, the speed at which it transformed into Magic Power greatly accelerated.

When Circulating Energy, the Magic Power circulation within his Meridians also became smoother.

It actually broke through several places that were originally slightly blocked in the Meridians at once.

The Meridians in his body had also been widened quite a bit, becoming even tougher and more durable.

*Hong!* Everything was like water flowing into a canal.

The surging Magic Power, like all rivers flowing into the sea, all converged within his Dantian Vital Energy and Blood.

Forming a pale cyan mist-like ocean.

A strong Spiritual Power Fluctuation surged around Qin Ming, Resonating with Heaven and Earth.

His Magic Power Cultivation finally stepped into Qi Condensation Stage Ninth Level at this moment!

Only one step away from Perfected Qi Condensation Stage.

He was getting closer and closer to the Foundation Establishment he had been longing for.

Now, although the Magic Power in Qin Ming's Dantian Qi Sea had not yet liquefied.

But in terms of Magic Power reserves and thickness, it was already comparable to the Early Foundation Establishment Stage.

*Hu~* Qin Ming consolidated his Cultivation for a while, and slowly exhaled a breath of air.

Then he stood up, a strange confidence filled his heart.

His current Magic Power Cultivation, coupled with the Body Refinement Technique, was completely able to compete with ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

He no longer had to be chased around.
