Immortal Refiner
Chapter 901: Farming 2
Translator: AnubisTL
As the dissipating bubbles faded, Li Qing’s consciousness gradually sharpened.
Gazing at the familiar surroundings and sensing the abundant spiritual energy permeating heaven and earth, Li Qing nearly became intoxicated by the sensation.
Huff!
The oppressive suppression of the end of dao era vanished instantly, like a prisoner breaking free from their shackles, feeling utterly liberated.
Boom!
Vast quantities of heaven and earth spiritual qi surged into Li Qing’s body. Four heavenly spirit fires refined this chaotic energy, transforming it into pure mana.
After a long interval, Li Qing’s magical power fully recovered to its peak-stage, and his cultivation even advanced slightly.
This progress was thanks to the completed Dao Tribulation Limitless Sutra. Even in the restrictive environment of the end of dao era, his cultivation had continued to improve.
Having restored his condition, Li Qing briefly sensed the current state of his sect.
Not bad. It still exudes grandeur, and no major incidents have occurred.
Familiar faces had come and gone in waves, but one thing remained constant: the Lingyun Sect continued to thrive, its power undiminished.
Notably, Xu Xia had stepped down from his position as sect leader, becoming a core formation realm supreme elder. He now devoted himself to secluded cultivation, striving to ascend the great dao.
The current sect leader was Wang Sheng, a foundation establishment cultivator of impeccable character, who had passed Xu Xia’s rigorous tests in every aspect.
Li Qing paid little attention to these matters. He planned to head straight to the Heavenly Wonder Immortal Mansion to plant the ancient spirit seeds he had acquired from the World of Eternal Night over the years.
Of course, this depended on whether he could revive them using the seven-colored life essence—the crucial factor.
Just as Li Qing was about to depart, a restriction within his cave abode suddenly activated, and a sealed spirit letter drifted into view.
Slightly surprised, Li Qing took the letter in hand. With a flicker of his divine sense, he instantly grasped its contents.
"Heh, so those old fossils on the snow mountain have finally ascended? If I calculate the time, it seems they’ve indeed exceeded their two-hundred-year limit."
Unlike the grand ascensions of Wan Shengtian and the others, the recent ascensions of the divine transformation great powers from the snow mountain were conducted without fanfare, remaining unknown to the entire cultivation world.
If Li Qing hadn’t received this Spirit Sealing Letter, he might have forgotten about the matter entirely.
"They chose a spatial node in the nether domain for their ascension, which isn’t too far from the Azure Ridge Domain."
"I never imagined that such a yin qi-laden great domain would have suitable spatial nodes for ascension."
As he spoke, a wisp of spirit fire ignited at Li Qing’s fingertip, incinerating the letter completely.
With another group of divine transformation great powers gone, he might truly have no rivals left in the entire human realm.
Calling him the Supreme of the Mortal Realm would hardly be an exaggeration.
"Let me see... the Five Elements Spirit Saint must have passed away in meditation long ago. The human realm is surprisingly empty now, leaving only the Palace Master of the Ice Extremity Palace in the Great Wilderness Domain as the sole publicly known divine transformation great power."
This Palace Master of the Ice Extremity Palace has always been shrouded in mystery, rarely showing her face. Rumor has it that her cultivation has reached the mid divine transformation realm, and her mastery of the ice dao is said to be heaven-reaching.
Li Qing had no interest in interacting with her, preferring to quietly cultivate in seclusion.
"The nether domain has always been rumored to be connected to immortality. Now that I have sufficient strength, I might visit it someday."
"Still, it’s likely just an empty rumor. If it truly held the secret to immortality, other divine transformation realm cultivators would have already seized this unparalleled opportunity."
Li Qing shook his head, then vanished in a flash, reappearing instantly within the Heavenly Wonder Immortal Mansion.
He retrieved several ancient spirit seeds from his storage bag. Each seed was withered and dull, devoid of any visible life force.
Yet Li Qing solemnly placed them in his palm and slowly closed his eyes.
These ancient spirit seeds were from the Crimson Jade-Essence Fruit, a spirit fruit nearly extinct in the human realm. If he could revive them, he could harvest this rare fruit in the future.
With this fruit, he could refine the Jade Bone Pill, quenching his fleshly body to forge jade-like bones and further strengthen his physical form.
As for whether he could ever obtain the pill formula for the Ice Muscle Pill and fully complete the Ice Muscle Jade Bone Physique, that would depend entirely on future good fortune.
"Transformation Demon Art."
Buzz!
As Li Qing’s thoughts stirred, the numbers representing his lifespan began to fluctuate wildly.
Starting from nearly ten thousand, they plummeted rapidly, reaching just over eight thousand in the blink of an eye.
This was the first time Li Qing had activated the cultivation technique with such intensity, instantly consuming nearly two thousand years of his lifespan.
The dense, seven-colored life essence within his body glowed brilliantly, almost bursting through his skin, casting a vibrant, multicolored aura around him.
Li Qing channeled this concentrated life essence outward, enveloping the lifeless Spirit Seeds.
Almost immediately, signs of activity emerged. Like dried sponges soaking up water, the Spirit Seeds greedily absorbed the seven-colored life essence coating their surfaces.
However, a few remained motionless, their irreversible damage due to improper storage.
While the seven-colored life essence could revive Spirit Seeds that had lost their vitality and spirituality, it could not restore those that had been physically damaged or destroyed.
But that was enough. Li Qing wasn’t a greedy man; it was only natural that a large batch of Spirit Seeds would contain some flawed or inferior specimens.
After expending roughly one-fourth of the vital essence he had condensed, thirteen deep brown Spirit Seeds gradually plumped up from their shriveled state.
A faint, vibrant glow emanated from their surfaces, carrying a refreshing aura of vitality.
Watching this scene, a genuine smile spread across Li Qing’s face.
His years of waiting in the World of Eternal Night had been well worth it. This harvest alone was enough to fill him with satisfaction.
"It takes approximately four hundred years of vital essence to revive thirteen Crimson Jade-Essence Fruit ancient seed. For an ordinary cultivator, this would be a terrible bargain—they would never sacrifice their precious lifespan for such a venture."
"But I have no such concerns. In the future, I can replenish my lifespan through artifact refinement and treasure refinement."
As this thought crossed his mind, Li Qing’s smile brightened even further.
For him, this was undoubtedly a worthwhile investment—a remarkably profitable one, in fact.
Arriving at Medicinal Field Peak within the Heavenly Wonder Immortal Mansion, Li Qing personally loosened the spiritual soil in a medicinal garden, carefully digging thirteen small pits. He meticulously planted the Crimson Jade-Essence Fruit seeds, one in each pit.
After completing this task, he retrieved a Spirit Spring Eye and placed it beside the medicinal field.
Soon, a spirit spring gurgled to life, radiating dense spiritual energy.
Li Qing watered each of the thirteen pits with spirit spring water, ensuring the spirit seedlings would sprout quickly.
"It’s a pity I don’t have the Verdant Soul Spirit Fire," he mused. "It would greatly accelerate the growth of these spirit seeds."
"Just a brief baking of the spiritual soil with the Verdant Soul Spirit Fire would infuse the medicinal garden’s earth with even greater vitality, making the farming process much easier."
After a moment of regret, Li Qing redirected the spring water into a spirit spring stream that encircled the entire medicinal garden.
This way, the spiritual soil throughout the garden would be nourished by the spirit spring.
With these preparations complete, Li Qing retrieved more spirit seeds, held them in his palm, and continued reviving them with his seven-colored life essence.
