Chapter 281 Green Profound's Request
Qin Ming welcomed the two Old Ancestors into the Inner Room and brewed Spirit Tea for them.
Ancestor Qing Xuan took a sip of Spirit Tea and slowly began to speak, "This matter... must begin with the Ghost Plague that occurred within our Liang State."
"Presumably Daoist friend Qin is also aware of it."
"At first, we also thought it was just a relics hidden at the Lake Bottom."
"But as the excavation progressed, we discovered that the Lake Bottom was actually a Forbidden Ground sealing countless Ghostly Creatures."
"The Seal of the relics originally had flaws, and after being damaged by Cultivators searching for treasures, all the Ghostly Creatures sealed inside were released."
"The scale of the Ghost Plague is so large that even our Sect is struggling to cope with it."
"Therefore, I had no choice but to contact the Superior Sect, which is Fire Palace, hoping to get their assistance."
"But who would have thought that Fire Palace has also been caught in the quagmire of war in recent decades, and it is said that it has reached the point where even Nascent Soul experts are personally taking the field..."
"They simply have no time to attend to matters in the Southern Wilderness cultivation world."
Ancestor Qing Xuan observed Qin Ming's reaction, and continued, "The severity of the Ghost Plague is such that if it is not stopped, not only Liang State, but the entire Southern Wilderness cultivation world will be spared from disaster."
"Among the Ghostly Creatures that have emerged recently, Core Formation stage Ghostly Creatures have already begun to appear."
"Alas, Elder Yuheng of our Valley, also encountered a Late Stage of Tier Three Golden Toad Demon King breaking free from its seal during a Ghostly Creatures extermination operation..."
At this moment.
Ancestor Yuheng beside him also sighed deeply and said:
"In that battle, if I hadn't escaped at the cost of using a Mystical Art that consumes Lifespan, I'm afraid I would have already become a pile of withered bones."
"It is precisely because of this that my Lifespan is now less than five years."
Qin Ming heard this and deliberately put on a surprised expression.
Even though he knew some of the inside story, it was difficult to change the occurrence of the Ghost Plague.
The Golden Toad Ancestor was just a Spirit Pet of White Bone True Person, yet it was already so terrifying.
If White Bone True Person revived and came in person, I'm afraid there would be no Opponent in the Southern Wilderness cultivation world.
Qin Ming was also thinking about how to tell these two people this information, in order to prepare for it in advance.
The conversation reached this point.
Ancestor Qing Xuan finally revealed the purpose of privately seeking out Qin Ming, "Our visit this time, in addition to congratulating Daoist friend Qin, also has a request."
"That is, Daoist friend Qin... could you help Elder Yuheng refine a kind of Lifespan-increasing Pills."
Qin Ming was also quite surprised, "Since this is the case, why not ask Grandmaster Gongsun to refine it?"
"Daoist friend Qin, you will understand after taking a look."
After Ancestor Qing Xuan finished speaking, he handed a simple and ancient Pill Recipe to Qin Ming.
Qin Ming took it and frowned involuntarily as he looked at it.
"Longevity Fruit Pill."
Qin Ming roughly scanned through this Pill Recipe and found that the Pill refinement Difficulty was indeed not small.
However, this Pill, as a Tier 3 mid-grade spirit pill, can directly increase a Cultivator's Lifespan by eighty years after consumption.
Moreover, this Pill can only be taken once in a Cultivator's lifetime at most, and the second Pill will have no Lifespan-increasing effect.
Eighty years of Lifespan is like a life-saving straw for a Golden Core master whose Lifespan is about to run out.
"We have also shown this Pill to Grandmaster Gongsun, and he has no confidence in refining Tier 3 mid-grade pills."
"Even if he attempts Pill Refining, it will take at least ten years to carefully study it."
"But Elder Yuheng only has five years of Lifespan left, and we really can't afford to delay."
"Therefore, Grandmaster Gongsun Yang strongly recommended Daoist friend Qin to us..."
Only then did Qin Ming understand, and he pondered for a while holding the Pill Recipe.
Speaking of which, his smooth Core Formation was also somewhat related to Profound Stream Valley.
After all, the Golden Core Pill Formula he used for Breakthrough was also stolen from their Scripture Pavilion.
In addition, there are also many Tier 3 Pill Formula.
Perhaps, this is also a Karma. After he finished reading this Pill Recipe, he found that the Main Material inside was exactly the 'Three Crimson Soul-Returning Grass' that he had planted.
Therefore, Qin Ming put away the Pill Recipe and said to the two:
"Since it is a request from the two Old Ancestors, Qin will try my best."
Ancestor Qing Xuan and Yuheng were overjoyed upon hearing this, and thanked him gratefully, "Regardless of whether Daoist friend Qin can successfully refine this Pill or not, we two old fellows and Profound Stream Valley owe Daoist friend Qin a Favor."
"It's just that..."
"The other Spirit Material are easier to obtain, but the Main Material for refining this Longevity Fruit Pill is the Three Crimson Soul-Returning Grass, which has already become Extinct in the Ancient Era, and the Valley is still trying its best to collect it."
Qin Ming smiled slightly and said, "To be honest with Daoist Qing Xuan, when Qin was traveling abroad, I happened to find a Three Crimson Soul-Returning Grass in a black market."
"Really? Hahaha!"
"That's really great!" Ancestor Qing Xuan let out a hearty laugh.
"It seems that this is really the will of heaven! Elder Yuheng, it seems we made the right trip."
Next.
Ancestor Qing Xuan and Ancestor Yuheng handed the spirit materials for Pill Refining to Qin Ming, and after chatting with him for a while, they also got up to bid farewell and leave.
Since the two of them still had to rush back to deal with the Ghost Plague, Qin Ming did not insist on keeping them.
Wei Wuyai and Nalan Xi, the two Golden Core cultivators, also said goodbye to Qin Ming and left one after another.
…
At this point, the guests On the island dispersed, and all the Golden Core experts had also left.
Moon Gazing Island returned to its former tranquility.
At this time.
The figure of Gu Qingzhao appeared in front of Qin Ming, handing a red booklet in her hand to Qin Ming.
She smiled faintly and said, "True Person Qin, here is the congratulatory gift registry for this Golden Core Grand Ceremony."
Qin Ming took the Gift List from her hand and smiled slightly, "Daoist friend Gu, you've worked hard."
"True Person Qin, you're too kind, our Mirror Snow Pavilion has also benefited a lot from this Golden Core Grand Ceremony," Gu Qingzhao said.
Qin Ming observed Gu Qingzhao's Cultivation, and she had also Cultivation to the Late Foundation Establishment stage.
However, she was still far from the Core Formation Breakthrough.
He took out a bottle of Jade Mystery Pill from his Storage Bag and handed it to Gu Qingzhao, saying, "This is a small token of Qin's appreciation, and I hope Daoist friend Gu will not decline it."
Gu Qingzhao was stunned for a moment, and then stretched out her soft hand to take the Jade Mystery Pill in Qin Ming's hand, "Then I will accept it without ceremony, thank you True Person Qin."
"You and I have been cooperating for so many years, there's no need to be so formal, haha."
Afterwards, Gu Qingzhao also bid farewell to Qin Ming, preparing to return to Azure Sea Immortal City.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly turned around and said to Qin Ming:
"True Person Qin, after this time, I plan to go out for training, and by the way, look for Core Formation Opportunity."
"Once I leave, I don't know when we will meet again, I hope True Person Qin will take care."
Qin Ming did not expect that Gu Qingzhao would actually make such a decision.
He did have a Core Formation Pill in his hand, but Qin Ming absolutely dared not Sale it at this moment.
If this Core Formation Pill of unknown origin were to appear outside, without even thinking about it, Fire Palace would definitely investigate it to the bottom.
'Alas! It seems that this woman must have been stimulated by my Golden Core achievement to make such a risky decision.'
'After all, back in Green Sun Market, I was still a Qi Condensation cultivator, and she had already achieved Foundation Establishment.'
'Looking back now, decades have passed, and I have become a Golden Core True Person, while she is still in the Foundation Establishment Stage, our Positions have been reversed...'
Qin Ming could only say, "Since Daoist friend Gu is determined, then Qin wishes you eternal path of immortality, and if there is anything you need my help with, please feel free to ask."
Afterwards.
Qin Ming also sent Gu Qingzhao out of Moon Gazing Island.
