Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

"It's actually an artifact fragment!"

Guu Qingzhao's eyes showed a look of surprise, and after carefully observing it for a while, she hesitated before asking:

"Is this... not the half-piece of the copper mirror fragment that caused a stir in the Immortal City a few days ago?"

"Rumor has it that Long Daoist took it away, so how did it end up in Fellow Daoist Qin's hands?"

"Yes, that's right, I also got it from Fellow Daoist Long."

"He came to me for alchemy and used this artifact fragment as payment," Qin Ming said without batting an eye.

Guu Qingzhao gently nodded, "No wonder... It's just that... even if you find the other half of the copper mirror fragment, Fellow Daoist Qin might not be able to repair it into a genuine artifact, after all, the restrictions within it have been completely destroyed."

"I fear that even if a Tier Three Refining Grandmaster took action, they might not be able to repair it, let alone, within the Wei Country, there isn't even a Tier Three Refining Grandmaster."

"The price Fellow Daoist Qin paid this time seems somewhat not worth it."

"It's okay, I'm just interested in it, I don't expect it to be fully repaired," Qin Ming said.

"Alright then, I will secretly have people keep an eye out for it."

Guu Qingzhao immediately took out a Memory Wall and copied both sides of the copper mirror.

Then she returned the copper mirror to Qin Ming.

"Since Fellow Daoist Qin is here, why not stay a few more days?" Guu Qingzhao suggested to stay.

Qin Ming smiled slightly, "Haha, I've promised Xue Zhili to attend the black market trade in Inch Mountain."

"Oh~ so that's the case, I've heard about the Inch Mountain affair too. If I weren't so tied up, even I would like to see it, since it's said cultivators from all four countries have come," Guu Qingzhao said enlighteningly.

Afterward, Qin Ming and Guu Qingzhao engaged in a deep conversation and then left the Mirror Snow Pavilion.

Three days passed.

Qin Ming left the Vast Sea Immortal City, first exchanging his three-headed spirit beast for a newly bought Tier Two High-Grade Spirit Beast Bag.

Then, he rode on the Silver-winged Frost Bee and headed for Inch Mountain Market.

"Oh! That's more like it! It's much more spacious than before and much more comfortable," the voice of the Heaven-Devouring Rat came from within the new Spirit Beast Bag.

An hour and more later.

Qin Ming, riding the Silver-winged Frost Bee, arrived near Inch Mountain Market.

He put away his spirit pet, then flew down.

This time Qin Ming did not disguise himself, instead, he appeared as he was, after all, he was invited by Xue Zhili, so no need to conceal too much.

He arrived at the entrance of Inch Mountain and looked at the market, which had greatly changed, and sighed with emotion.

All the buildings and collapsed ruins had been cleared and rebuilt.

It did not have the grandeur it had when managed by the Thunder Origin Sect.

They were just temporary simple shacks with scattered stalls.

And the array surrounding the market was replaced with a Tier Two Middle-Grade Array, its defensive capability was okay.

Today, due to the holding of the black market trade, more cultivators came to the market, with cultivators of all kinds arriving, various colored escape lights landed outside the market.

Inside the market was bustling with traffic, and there was a long queue of cultivators outside the market.

Nearby cultivators, seeing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator coming, all conscientiously made way.

In the cultivation realm, hierarchy is strict, and now since this place has become a lawless area, if you're not careful, you might anger a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, and not know how you died.

Qin Ming took no courtesy, stepping directly into the market.

According to the address Xue Zhili had previously told him, he came to where the Thunder Origin Sect used to have the Cloud Fire Pavilion.

The place had changed over the years, the luxurious pavilion had disappeared, replaced by an Artifact Refining Shop.

Qin Ming directly stepped into the shop, and then came to the courtyard behind.

Just as he entered, he saw two guarding cultivators stationed there, Qin Ming quickly checked their cultivation, and was surprised to find that both were Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

It seems Xue Zhili has really spared no expense this time, even the outside guides were of such cultivation level.

"Fellow Daoist, do you have an invitation token?" one of the guards asked politely.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming immediately took out the black Profound Iron Token given by Xue Zhili from the storage pouch and handed it to him.

After verifying the token, the two guards again politely said to Qin Ming, "Please come in, Fellow Daoist!"

Then one of the cultivators led Qin Ming into a room.

He then cast several spells toward the ground.

Rumble!

Instantly, a passage large enough for two people appeared on the ground.

"This..." Qin Ming looked at this scene, a bit speechless.

Unexpectedly, the place for the black market trade was set up so discreetly in such a place.

The guard led the way ahead, and after passing through a long tunnel, Qin Ming's eyes suddenly brightened.

A massive underground trading market appeared in his view, like a small underground city.

Decorated luxuriously, no less than outside, the dome was illuminated by countless glowing gems, brightly lit inside.

Qin Ming took a cursory glance, there were already over a hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators here, each setting up stalls, displaying their trade items.

He just released his Divine Thought for a glance and knew the cultivation of these cultivators, most were at the Early-stage Foundation Establishment stage, fewer at the Middle-stage, only about a dozen.

Seven or eight at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, and three at Foundation Establishment Perfection.

It seems Xue Zhili has put quite an effort this time, managing to gather so many Foundation Establishment Cultivators at once.

I reckon it's also related to the beast tide outbreak, with many cultivators coming to the Vast Sea Immortal City.

However, what surprised him more was that the underground market seemed to be enveloped by a rather sophisticated array, even Qin Ming's Divine Thought, comparable to the Golden Core Stage, was bounced back.

"Yo! Fellow Daoist Qin is here!"

Xue Zhili, as the host today, wore a white robe with gold silk and big red brocade, looking very festive. Seeing Qin Ming, he hurried to greet him.

As soon as he said this, nearby cultivators all came to greet.

"Hello, Fellow Daoist Qin!"

"I didn't expect even Master Qin to come."

"Wondering if Master Qin has any High-Tier Spirit Plants or Spirit Pills for sale."

"I've long heard of Fellow Daoist Qin's fame in Wei Country!"

"With Fellow Daoist Qin here, naturally, there won't be a shortage of good items."

"Fellow Daoist Xue must be really capable to have invited Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, are you still selling Spirit Nesting Rice? This old man wants to acquire some."

"..."

For a while, many cultivators gathered around, warmly greeting him and saying some complimentary and polite words.

There were also some cultivators from other countries, whose attitude toward Qin Ming was lukewarm, after all, his reputation elsewhere wasn't as prominent as in the Wei Country.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you can stroll around for a while, or if you're interested, set up a stall, I'm sure many cultivators would be willing to trade with you," Xue Zhili said with a smile.

"Later, we will have an auction trade."

"If you need, this old man can also bid on your behalf, I only charge a ten percent commission."

Qin Ming nodded, then took out a bottle of Jade Profound Pill, and a Five Elements Primordial Spirit Peach, and handed them to him.

After all, Xue Zhili worked hard to organize such a big event, it wouldn't be fair to do it for free, making some profit is understandable.

"This, this this..."

Xue Zhili received the items from Qin Ming, his voice trembled, and he was almost too excited to speak.

It was also the first time he saw such legendary items.

"Jade Profound Pill... Five Elements Primordial Spirit Peach..."

Jade Profound Pill, even in the overlord-level sect Profound Creek Valley of the Liang Country, few alchemists can successfully refine it; it can enhance the mana of late-stage and perfection cultivators, and is rarely seen in the outside world.

This pill must be an item that high-tier Foundation Establishment Cultivators would compete over.

The Five Elements Primordial Spirit Peach doesn't even need much explanation, eating it can not only increase cultivation, but more importantly, it has life-extending effects.

If released, those Fake Pill Ancestors would probably break their heads for it.

After all, Fake Pill Ancestors' path ends here, unable to practice to later stages, their lifespan becomes the most important thing to them.

Other than those traded to the Mirror Snow Pavilion.

The one Qin Ming took out, should also be the first in the Wei Cultivation Realm in a hundred years.
