Longevity: Start Farming with Entries

"Next is the Spiritual Crane Creek, which possesses two Tier Five High-Grade Spiritual Veins. The scenery here is beautiful, shrouded in mist throughout the year, and serves as the habitat for the Spiritual Bird Immortal Crane. As a cave mansion for an elder, it is quite suitable, fitting your idle and carefree temperament."

"..."

Shopkeeper Cao introduces each location with great patience. If it were someone else, he definitely wouldn’t do this, but this Elder Lii before him is indeed special.

Even Yao Tiannan wants to win over this Loose Cultivator; befriending him is undoubtedly the right choice.

He spoke for most of the day, his mouth dry, and after taking a sip of Spirit Tea, pointed to the last piece of Spirit Land:

"This place is called ’Little Turtle Peak,’ possessing one Tier Five High-Grade Spiritual Vein, though its geographical location is somewhat remote and... it borders the Barbaric Wilderness, a region yet to be developed by the Human Race, hence Celestial Star City has designated an area of ten thousand miles for it."

"Several pieces of Spirit Land around Little Turtle Peak have already been purchased. A Divinity Transformation Clan has settled and thrived in the northern Wutong Mountain Spirit Land, while a Loose Cultivator occupies the southern Yunmeng Mountain Spirit Land."

Qin Ming focused his gaze and saw where Shopkeeper Cao had pointed, the silhouette of a mountain peak clearly revealed, with the image becoming clearer under his manipulation.

This Little Turtle Peak is indeed quite striking, resembling a giant turtle carrying a mountain of Spirit Veins and Cave Mansion, with terraced fields layered atop the mountain.

"Profound Turtle Carried Peak... It truly is quite interesting. Shopkeeper Cao, what’s the lease price for this piece of Spirit Land?" Qin Ming pondered for a moment before finally asking.

Shopkeeper Cao was taken aback at Qin Ming’s interest in this piece of Spirit Land.

This Elder Lii’s style of action is indeed unique, entirely different from ordinary thinking, making it baffling...

"Haha! Elder Lii, our trading company’s Spiritual Cave Mansions are all leased for no less than a hundred years. To be honest, this Little Turtle Peak Spirit Land has been open for several hundred years without interest from anyone, yet you, Elder Lii, have taken a liking."

"Originally, the lease for this piece of Spirit Land every hundred years was priced at six hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones, but I can make a decision and offer you a special discount with your Purple Gold VIP Token, reducing it by half, which means three hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones per hundred years. How does that sound?"

"So expensive..." Even though Qin Ming was mentally prepared, he was still left in shock by such high rent.

This is multiple times more expensive than the Black Obsidian Peak of the Thousand Mechanism Poison Swamp...

"Haha! Elder Lii should know that as one of the main cities of the Human Race, even marginal areas under Celestial Star City’s jurisdiction are valuable lands... I’ve given the maximum discount within my right to exercise." Shopkeeper Cao still explained with a smile.

Qin Ming nodded; what he said was indeed true.

His initial plan was to directly purchase the entire Spirit Land or, at the very least, lease it for a thousand years to cultivate and refine.

But now, it seems that the plan needs adjustments...

"Alright, Lii has understood. Then I’ll lease Little Turtle Peak for now, for three hundred years, and renew if necessary." Qin Ming decided immediately.

Shopkeeper Cao, hearing this, beamed with joy: "No problem, I’ll handle the paperwork for Elder Lii right away. Have you obtained the identity plaque for Celestial Star City?"

After all the day’s efforts, it didn’t feel wasted; at least the difficult Spirit Land was leased out, doing Elder Lii a favor in return.

He was in quite a good mood...

Qin Ming immediately took out the identity plaque and handed it to him.

Shopkeeper Cao received the plaque and checked it first.

He couldn’t help but marvel at Elder Lii’s remarkable ability to acquire the identity plaque so quickly.

After confirming there were no errors, Shopkeeper Cao pointed his finger, and the Little Turtle Peak area in the map projection turned into a green light, merging into the plaque.

Then, he took out a jade scroll and completed the registration, successfully leasing the Spirit Land. He returned the identity plaque to Qin Ming.

"Elder Lii, from today onwards, the Spirit Land under Little Turtle Peak is under your name. You can freely develop, use, or manage it for three hundred years, even establish a sect or create a clan."

After receiving the plaque, Qin Ming handed over a small bag of Top-Grade Spirit Stones to him.

However, since he frequently transited between the Human Realm and Spirit Realm, his consumption of Burning Spirit Stones had depleted most of them. From over a thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones, only a little more than a hundred and twenty remained...

Hence, he took out a long jade box and handed it to Shopkeeper Cao, asking lightly, "Shopkeeper, here are a hundred and twenty Top-Grade Spirit Stones. Can I use these Demon Grain Spirit Rice to cover the remainder?"

"What?! Demon Grain Spirit Rice?" Shopkeeper Cao showed an astonished expression.

This Tier Five Spirit Rice is well-known among members of the Celestial Travel Trading Company by reputation.

Originally intended as a gesture of gratitude, could it be... he encountered a benefactor today?

Shopkeeper Cao suppressed his excitement and reached out to remove the Restriction on the jade box.

In an instant, a stunning black mist of light erupted, revealing three complete stalks of Demon Grain Spirit Rice inside, each grain plump and brimming with Spiritual Qi...

"These are complete stalks of Tier Five Spirit Rice!"

"Elder Lii, this Demon Grain Spirit Rice is extremely precious! Not something that money alone can buy."

"I’ll return all these spirit stones and accept just these three Spirit Rice stalks as trade items."

After confirming, fearing the loss of Spiritual Qi, Shopkeeper Cao swiftly closed the jade box and returned a jade scroll and the bag of spirit stones to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming didn’t hesitate, pocketing the spirit stones.

"This jade scroll contains the map to Little Turtle Peak. Once you arrive, use your identity plaque to activate the Spiritual Cave Mansion Restriction."

"Alright, in that case, Lii will take his leave."

"Haha! If Elder Lii ever needs anything, feel free to come to find me!"

Transaction completed.

Qin Ming departed after saying farewell to Shopkeeper Cao, readying his subordinates to visit the new Cave Mansion.

...

...

Within the Celestial Travel Trading Company.

After seeing Qin Ming off from the shop.

Shopkeeper Cao still lingered in the joy, feeling as if he was dreaming.

Not only did he manage to lease out the Spirit Land at Little Turtle Peak, but he also received three exceptionally rare Tier Five Demon Grain Spirit Rice stalks.

This was indeed a significant achievement!

The higher-ups in the trading company would surely credit him with some impressive performance.

As Shopkeeper Cao rejoiced secretly.

Suddenly, commotion arose from downstairs, and a hurried group of people came up.

A waiter anxiously rushed to Shopkeeper Cao and bowed, whispering a message: "Master Shopkeeper, Lord Jiang Tian and others have completed the frontline mission, along with several newly promoted Star Guards. They now wish to select a Spiritual Cave Mansion, and they’re on their way up."

"Ah? It’s actually them?" Shopkeeper Cao, hiding the jade box without a trace, furrowed his brows and said.

"Wasn’t he reported to have committed a major crime and was exiled to the Barbaric Wilderness frontline? How did he return?"
