Longevity: Start Farming with Entries-Chapter 370 - 347: Reunion with an Old Friend

After Qin Ming left the main hall, he emerged outside.

He discovered that the entire Immortal City was the largest he had ever visited.

Above the dome, there was a massive golden light screen that enveloped the entire Immortal City, with countless mysterious runes swimming within, emitting terrifying waves.

Even as Qin Ming looked up, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of trepidation.

"A Tier Four Defense Array!"

"Litian Immortal City truly lives up to its reputation as the number one Immortal City of Great Jin. Such grandeur is not something ordinary forces can achieve."

Qin Ming walked on the bustling streets, browsing the various dazzling cultivation resources in the street-side shops, sighing with emotion.

In the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, things viewed as treasures by various forces were found everywhere here.

Just as he was about to leave the city, he found the area around a shop ahead crowded with people, even blocking the surrounding streets, thus blocking Qin Ming’s path.

He had no choice but to walk over to see what was happening.

He saw that the shop was named ’Lingxiao Pill Pavilion’, and inside, a middle-aged cultivator who looked like a shopkeeper was holding a Spirit Pill, attracting competition from several well-dressed cultivators.

A large group of people below were feverishly quoting prices, looking determined not to give up.

"Fellow Daoist, what pill is being sold inside?"

"Why would it attract such a scramble among the cultivators?"

Qin Ming pulled aside a cultivator watching the excitement, asking.

The cultivator was engrossed in watching, and was about to impatiently lash out when he realized it was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. He quickly lowered his posture and replied:

"Heh heh! Is this senior’s first time in the Central Continent?"

"This Lingxiao Pill Pavilion is an industry under the Su Family. Every six months, they sell a Tier Three Pill."

"The one released today was the ’Moonlight Pill’, personally refined by Grandmaster Su Yuqing. It’s said that the Moonlight Pill is a Tier Three Spiritual Pill and has immense benefits for enhancing the cultivation of Golden Core Cultivators, hence attracting the competition of various powerful forces."

"Currently, the number of alchemists in Great Jin capable of refining such spiritual pills is less than five."

"Indeed, indeed, only Grandmaster Su is benevolent enough to release some high-tier pills, unlike those major sects that tightly control high-tier pills within their confines," a cultivator beside chimed in.

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming paused to watch for a moment, noticing the lively atmosphere, rivaling that of the Five Elements Mountain auction.

In just a short half-cup of tea time.

The specialty of this Moonlight Pill, coupled with the prestige of Grandmaster Su, had already inflated its price to astronomical levels.

Only a few major powers remained in the bidding, while the loose cultivators could only watch from a distance.

Qin Ming shook his head, not intending to continue watching. He took a detour and swiftly left Litian Immortal City.

Once out of the city, he summoned the Silver-winged Frost Bee and continued flying northwards towards Longting Lake.

As the scenery below swiftly receded, Qin Ming considered himself fortunate to witness the prosperity of Great Jin’s Central Continent.

"I didn’t expect Su Yuqing to have such a renowned reputation in Great Jin."

"But given his alchemy mastery, which even surpasses that of his predecessors, it’s understandable."

Three days later.

A vast lake appeared in Qin Ming’s sight, resembling a massive sapphire set into the earth.

Even before entering the Longting Lake area, the concentration of spiritual qi was already noticeably increasing.

Being one of the four great Golden Core clans of Great Jin, separated from Lihuo Palace, the Su Family naturally occupies a prominent position, commanding a complete Tier Three Top-Grade Spiritual Vein.

Proceeding further would enter the detection range of a High-Tier Array.

Therefore, Qin Ming descended onto a nearby hill.

His travels to Great Jin were known to few, only mentioning it to Guu Qingzhao and Nalan Xi in the Southern Wilderness.

Not wanting to attract the attention of Great Jin’s powers, he had used the identity of Shopkeeper Lu from Mirror Snow Pavilion.

However, he had great trust in Su Yuqing, so naturally, he intended to meet him in his true form without disguise.

Qin Ming immediately took out a Communication Talisman from his bosom and sent out a brief message.

"Brother Su, I have arrived outside Longting Lake. Please come out for a meeting."

...

In the Su Family’s estate at Longting Lake.

In a simply and elegantly decorated private study, a steward of the Su Family gently knocked on the door of the study, respectfully inquiring.

"Young Master Su, the Clan Leader has asked if you will be attending the Liao Family’s birthday banquet tonight?"

"Miss Liao has also cordially invited you several times, and it’s said that Elder Qian from Lihuo Palace and others will be present, all hoping for your attendance."

Inside the study.

Su Yuqing, dressed in white, was burning incense and brewing tea, holding an ancient book, studying it. Upon hearing the steward’s words, he responded flatly without even thinking:

"I won’t go; just tell them I’m at a critical juncture in alchemy and can’t get away."

"This... Very well... Understood!"

The old steward showed a troubled expression but had to bow and comply.

Just after dismissing the steward, Su Yuqing furrowed his brows, sensing a movement from the Communication Talisman attached to him.

He took it out to check the message content.

An expression of surprise and delight immediately appeared on his face, and he couldn’t suppress his laughter.

"Hahaha! This guy actually came to Great Jin quietly."

"And came all the way here."

The next moment, the study door opened, and the steward turned back, thinking Su Yuqing had changed his mind.

But before he could speak, he saw Su Yuqing turn into a breeze and instantly disappear from the Su Family.

"Didn’t Young Master Su say he had no time? Why has he gone out now..."

"Oh! How am I to explain this to the Clan Leader?"

...

Qin Ming waited for half a stick of incense time.

A white escape light shot through the sky from the direction of the Su Family, landing in front of Qin Ming.

As the light converged, Su Yuqing, in white attire, appeared, elegant and poised.

"Brother Qin, I didn’t expect you to come to Great Jin without giving me a heads-up," Su Yuqing smiled and greeted Qin Ming.

"We haven’t seen each other in decades."

"Brother Qin, you truly seem to grow younger with time."

Similarly.

Seeing this person before him, once both mentor and friend from Qingyang Market, Qin Ming couldn’t help but feel nostalgic.

The scenes when they parted ways in the Spirit Field flooded back.

Meeting again felt like a lifetime ago.

Su Yuqing was also surprised to see Qin Ming, as the other party’s mana aura had reached the mid-stage Golden Core, comparable to his own.

And a faint veil... as if covered by a layer of mist.

"I hope you’ve been well, Brother Su! Haha!" Qin Ming also greeted with a smile.

Though they hadn’t met often in person, they maintained frequent correspondence over the decades, not growing distant.

"This is not the place for conversation, Brother Qin, please come with me."

After speaking, Su Yuqing led Qin Ming towards the direction of the Su Family’s back mountain.

Soon, they passed through various restrictions effortlessly, arriving at a serene valley.

Within was an extremely elegant and quaint cave mansion, set with a Tier Three Top-Grade Spiritual Vein environment.

Qin Ming looked around, easily guessing that this was likely Su Yuqing’s cultivation place.

"Brother Su, this tranquil and excellent cultivation spot truly makes me envious!" Qin Ming said with a light smile.

Su Yuqing smiled slightly, "Brother Qin, please come in."

Then, the two entered the cave mansion, brewed spirit tea, and began to chat.
