Chapter 582 Return to the Southern Wilderness
Peace has returned to the Soul-Eroding Bone Swamp.

The previous devastating battle not only alarmed the nearby demon tribes.

The celestial phenomenon was more astonishing than the Great Battle of Incarnation. The spiritual energy between heaven and earth was drained, cracks appeared in space, and the aftermath spread far away, and even many humans could sense it.

With the death of this fifth-rank monster that had ruled the outer sea for thousands of years, the monster cultivators below were frightened to the point of their hearts breaking, and they scattered like monkeys when the tree fell.

“Run away! Lord Cangming Demon Lord has been killed!”

“too frightening!”

“Could it be that a late-stage Divine Transformation Master of the human race has taken action?”

In a short time, the news of the death of the fifth-rank Cangming Demon Lord spread like wildfire, and soon spread throughout the entire outer sea like a bolt of thunder.

The death of this fifth-order demon will mean a major change in the situation in the outer sea.

Qin Ming gained a lot from this trip. He was not interested in paying attention to the small fish below. He waved his sleeves and turned into a green light, leaving the sea.

……

Tianyahai Pavilion.

Xiao Xun and Nanming Patriarch looked at each other in shock.

“what?!”

“Did Fellow Daoist Qin kill the Cangming Demon Lord?”

After receiving this information, a huge wave of emotion rose in the heart of the Nanming Patriarch.

Qin Ming first killed the Demon Lord in the Southern Wilderness’s immortal cultivation world, and now he has killed the Fifth Level Demon Lord alone with his own hands.

What a terrifying strength this is?

The most crucial thing is that Qin Ming is only at the Nascent Soul stage now. What will happen if he really achieves the Divine Transformation stage?
Similarly, although Xiao Xun was aware of Qin Ming’s magical powers, he was also very excited at this moment.

After all, the fifth-level Cangming Demon Lord in the outer sea has extraordinary strength and is not comparable to that of an ordinary cultivator in the God Transformation Stage.

The death of any person in the God Transformation Stage is enough to change the landscape of the immortal cultivation world.

The open sea is no exception.

Qin Ming killed this beast, and it can be said that he completely pacified the beast tide situation in the outer sea.

In the next thousand years, if no new fifth-level demon lord is born, the human cultivators here can usher in a considerable period of stable development.

A few days later.

An unprecedented grand celebration was held on the Tianya Haijiao Islands to celebrate the victory of the human race against the outer sea monsters and to emerge from the shadow of the rule of the Cangming Demon Lord.

Qin Ming also returned to Tianyahaige.

“Fellow Daoist Qin’s magical powers are truly powerful. I’m afraid there will be no rival for him in the human world, right?” The Nanming Patriarch bowed and complimented, the whole person sighing.

When he saw Qin Ming, he saw that after killing the Demon Lord, he was as fine as ever, without even a scratch on his skin. This was a bit unbelievable and terrifying when he thought about it carefully.

“I’m glad you’re okay. Here you go.” Seeing that Qin Ming was safe and sound, Xiao Xun returned the Taihao Jiuyao Juexian Array to Qin Ming.

“Thanks to your fifth-order formation, otherwise it would be difficult for the two of us to hold on.”

Qin Ming put away the wooden box of the formation, then smiled slightly without saying much. Excessive modesty is also a kind of pride.

The three of them discussed and analyzed the situation in the open sea.

Nanming Patriarch was also a self-aware person. In order to leave the two of them some space to be alone, he took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye. “My two young friends, I’m going to go out for a walk. You guys continue chatting.”

Subsequently.

Qin Ming and Xiao Xun were the only ones left in the cave.

……

……

A few days later.

In the realm of Xiao Ling.

Qin Ming collected the corpse of the fifth-level Cangming Demon Lord, and obtained a large bucket of fifth-level monster blood, a fifth-level early-stage water-attributed monster pill, and a body of extremely hard materials.

The ‘Soul-Eating Eye’ of Demon Lord Cangming is also a top-level material for refining weapons, and his entire body is full of treasures.

However, for him, the biggest gain of this trip was the True Spirit Egg.

Secondly, the natal spiritual plant devoured the ten-thousand-year-old wood goblin and is about to advance again.

The natal spiritual plant is closely related to one’s own practice and can be said to be of vital importance.

Subsequently.

After Qin Ming used the Green Emperor’s Four Seasons Divine Light magical power to heal the True Spirit Egg, he actually discovered that there was a faint breath of life inside the gray egg, which was originally on the verge of death.

Although he was not revived immediately.

But it means there is still room for recovery, it just requires careful care.

That’s a real spirit! Qin Ming got excited just thinking about it.

So he called over the Sky-Devouring Rat and the Black Water Crocodile.

“From today on, I will give you two an extremely important task, which is to hatch the eggs for me. There must be no mistakes. Do you hear me?”

“This is the legendary True Spirit Egg.”

As soon as Qin Ming finished speaking, the Sky-Devouring Rat revealed a smile that was uglier than crying: “Master, this… we don’t know how to hatch eggs either!”

It had originally thought of eating the True Spirit Egg and reaching the peak of its life as a rat, but it seems that this is impossible.

“Have you ever seen a hen incubating eggs? Just hatch them like that.” Qin Ming thought for a moment and then gave instructions.

“Okay then.” The Sky-Eating Rat said dejectedly, looking as if he had lost all desire in life.

Then it imitated an old hen, sticking its butt up and sitting on the three-inch gray egg.
……

Time passed, and another half a year passed.

During this period of time, Qin Ming remained silent in the library at the ends of the earth for a while.

The main thing is to see if we can find a way to cultivate the True Spirit Egg. After all, letting the two Sky-Devouring Rats incubate the eggs doesn’t seem to be very effective.

Xiao Xun has the inheritance of the Spirit Realm Star Palace, so maybe he can find some special methods. But after half a year, he still has nothing to show for it.

The old demon Qingyang could only distinguish the true spirit egg, and did not know how to hatch it.

Qin Ming had no choice but to give up and planned to continue his research later.

This day.

He was studying an ancient book when Xiao Xun came in with a jade slip in his hand and said to him:
“Take a look at the news coming from the Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World.”

Qin Ming felt a little surprised, and immediately took the jade slip and started to read it.

After a while.

It turned out that it was sent by Hua Tianxiong, mainly reporting some things that happened in the five major immortal cultivation circles in the past six months.

During the time when Qin Ming was away, the ancient demon from Yuanji Mountain went on a killing spree in the immortal world to collect blood food.

Although several gods in the human world wanted to join forces to kill this demon.

But the Rock Demon had an ancient talisman in his hand that led to the interior of Yuanji Mountain, so he was helpless for the time being.

Now Wei Wuya and Mo Lingwei are both in seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, and Hua Tianxiong, a minor Jindan cultivator, is also undecided.

Therefore, I asked someone to send the message to you from afar.

Qin Ming was quite appreciative of Hua Tianxiong’s decision.

Over the past six months, Patriarch Nanming has recovered to the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. In addition, he has also gained some benefits from the war between humans and demons.

It is estimated that the time to recover to the Spirit Transformation Stage will be much shorter than before.

Therefore, he was restless and eager to go home during this period of time.

But because of Qin Ming’s face, he couldn’t leave early, so he waited in the open sea until now.

Qin Ming’s original plan was to refine the Divine Transformation Ointment in Tianya Haige, and then take the opportunity to use the fifth-level spiritual veins here to break through to the Divine Transformation stage.

It looks like it won’t work anymore.

He thought for a moment, then said to Xiao Xun, “I plan to return to the Southern Wilderness. What are your plans next?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun replied, “The outer sea is also in ruins. I plan to stabilize the situation here and then go to the southern wilderness to look for you.”

“Yeah, okay.” Qin Ming nodded.

After discussing with the two, Qin Ming and Nanming Patriarch set out on their journey home.

Along the way, Nanming Patriarch said with deep emotion: “Alas! I never thought that I would be able to return home one day. I wonder if my disciples have forgotten me.”

“Don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Nanming’s natal spirit lamp has never been extinguished. The disciples of Lihuo Palace naturally know that you are still alive.” Qin Ming explained with a smile.

After half a month.

The two of them used the special channel provided by Xiao Xun, took a long detour, and returned to the East China Sea Xiuxian world.

Coincidentally, when the two of them passed by Tianlan Fairy City, they ran into Master Zhiyang and others.

It seemed that they had just finished holding several major meetings in the East China Sea and came out of the Immortal City.

“Friend Qin! Long time no see. I heard you were traveling far away?” Master Zhiyang now treated Qin Ming as a senior.

After all, the other party had killed the Demon Lord, and his strength was simply not comparable to that of the Nascent Soul True Lords like them.

He even anticipated that Qin Ming was not far from truly becoming a god.

“Fellow Daoist Zhiyang, Qin went to the outer sea to do some things and just happened to come back.” Qin Ming also greeted the other party.

Afterwards, Master Zhiyang looked at the unfamiliar gray-robed old man beside him. When he looked at him, he suddenly found that he could not see through his cultivation at all, and his heart was immediately startled.

So he asked, “Who is this?”

Qin Ming introduced: “This is the founder of Lihuo Palace – Nanming Patriarch. He traveled in the outer sea for a long time before, and now he just happened to come back with me.”

“What? Shouldn’t we address him as Senior Nanming?” Master Zhiyang was surprised.

It is rumored that the life spirit lamp deep in the Lihuo Palace has never been extinguished, which has caused endless speculation in the world of immortal cultivation.

Although he had expected this, he was still somewhat shocked when he saw the real Nanming Patriarch standing in front of him.

After all, the other party has not died for so many years, so there is only one possibility, that is, he has already achieved the God Transformation Stage.

“I am the junior Master Zhiyang of Xingchen Palace, and I am here to greet Senior Nanming!” Master Zhiyang hurriedly bowed respectfully.

Even in a sect that is at the God Transformation stage, it is extremely difficult to encounter a cultivator at the God Transformation stage on a normal day.

He used to be the chief leader of the human world alliance, and he did not dare to overstep his boundaries in front of the Divine Transformation Master.

“Well, no need to be so polite.” The Nanming Patriarch also said casually.

Master Zhiyang was also feeling uncertain. He had never expected that Qin Ming would actually get together with the Venerable Huashen of the Lihuo Palace, and it seemed that the two of them had a very close relationship.

My heart was in turmoil.

The return of the Nanming Patriarch, the supreme master who has attained the state of transformation, is bound to disrupt the pattern of the immortal cultivation world in the three kingdoms of Zhongzhou.

It is almost certain that Lihuo Palace will rise again.

Originally, ever since the death of Master Lihuo, the sect had been in decline, but if Patriarch Nanming returned, the situation would be very different.

It will become a top sect in the human world like their Star Palace.

Subsequently.

Since he met an old acquaintance here, Qin Ming simply communicated with Master Zhiyang to learn about the recent situation in the world of immortal cultivation.

It’s basically the same news as Hua Tianxiong’s.

However, Master Zhiyang had some news that surprised both Qin Ming and Patriarch Nanming.

“During this period, something more important happened.”

“That was a few months ago. Fellow Daoist Cangwu from Penglai Sect had already gone into seclusion and started to strive for the Spiritual Transformation Realm.”
