Blue Mist Stone fragments into the stone fire.Then flames flickered, the impurities in the Qinglan stone were burned away bit by bit, leaving only the purest part, containing abundant water element p...The information is too scarce, Tan Hao's whereabouts are a mystery.

At this time, Qin Sang had a new discovery. He lowered his head to look at the floor and suddenly flicked his sleeve, moving the cushions, spirit formation, etc., all out of the stone house.

A moment later.

Qin Sang extended a hand, his palm facing the ground as he slowly pressed down.

The Tianmu butterfly's eyes are a mesmerizing weave of patterns.

'Click click...'

The ground couldn't bear the weight and cracks appeared.

Just then, a surge of inky blackness erupted, causing the ground to collapse and the stone house to tilt.

There is another world underground!

Qin Sang waved his hand, stabilizing the stone house. The Twelve Demon Banners continued to swirl around him, preparing for any potential changes.

However, the restrictions under the stone house were unexpectedly weak, their power far less than the witch clan restrictions outside, and they were clearly set by human cultivators.

"This is indeed in line with Tan Hao's cultivation level..."

Qin Sang pondered for a moment.

He easily found the secret hidden under the stone house, discovering that the space below was quite vast. He then entered a crack and slowly descended down it.

Qin Sang soon stepped onto the scene.

His divine sense spread out, taking in the surrounding terrain at a glance.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In the middle of the space, there was a peculiar round altar.

Apart from that, the entire space was empty. Qin Sang saw some fragments, possibly artifacts or objects that were originally placed here, damaged by the impact.

Only if the altar is intact can we say for sure there's something strange about it.

>

Qin Sang was about to walk towards the altar, then as if he had discovered something, his figure stopped, his palm reaching down to grasp a fragment and drawing it into his hand.

This shard is exquisitely translucent, as white as jade, with not a trace of impurities.

“White Jade...”

Qin Sang recalled that they had once stormed into the Tian Shi Zong branch.

When the demonic energy erupted, he and Yu Da Yue took refuge in the forbidden ground of Tianshi Sect. It was thanks to a spirit formation centered on a white jade that they managed to survive the calamity.

The texture of the fragment is very similar to that of white jade.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Is this the Tian Shi Zong branch hall I don't see any signs of Di Sha Qi. Could it be that all of it was dispersed by the disturbance a hundred years ago"

Qin Sang's heart skipped a beat, and she rushed towards the altar.

A circular altar, with strange patterns carved around it, had a black mass floating in its center that hung suspended and did not dissipate. It was unclear what it was.

Qin Sang observed for a while, but couldn't figure out the origin of the black qi. After hesitating for a moment, he separated a sliver of his divine sense and tentatively touched the black qi.

"Save me..."

The moment consciousness touched the black qi, a voice suddenly came from within the black qi.

The sound was hoarse and unpleasant, like two pieces of iron rubbing against each other. It was as if an old woman who had been thirsty for countless years was crying out in desperation.

Qin Sang's expression changed slightly, and he immediately severed that wisp of divine sense. The magic banner around him rustled ominously.

Immediately, the black qi returned to normal.

After a moment, ensuring nothing amiss, Qin Sang just then urged his divine sense to probe further.

"Save me..."

The same voice sounded again.

Obviously, this sound wasn't just made by someone recently. It has always existed in the altar, begging for help.

Qin Sang was skilled and bold, using his divine sense to inquire, but the voice did not change at all, nor did it respond to Qin Sang. It just kept calling out over and over again.

"Tan Hao must have found the altar, Chen Heng definitely came here too. They most likely saw the person calling for help, or they might have already rescued them."

Qin Sang thought to herself.

Then, he discovered that in the black mist there were not only cries for help, but also, “Save me from this predicament, and I will pass on to you the supreme law. I swear a cause-and-effect oath that I will surely repay you!”

"A vow of cause and effect"

Qin Sang murmured these four words. This was the first time he had heard of so-called vows of cause and effect.

It sounds like something similar to a vow made with a demon, but the two characters "cause and effect" are far more sinister than any demon.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

'Cause and effect', such a profound and mysterious concept, was beyond the reach of a Yuan Ying cultivator. Qin Sang had never heard of it, let alone Tan Hao and Chen Heng. Who knew what a cause-and-effect vow was, or if it had any binding power

As soon as the words were uttered, the black air suddenly churned and transformed into an image before vanishing back into its original form.

“This outline, it’s the whole of Heaven's Mark!”

>

Qin Sang instantly memorized the image, and then realized that there was a unique mark in a certain position of the celestial map, which was probably a guide marker, the location where the mysterious person was trapped.

Thus, the basic understanding is clear.

This place is most likely a sacrificial altar of the Tian Shi Sect.

The Heavenly Corpse Sect was destroyed, and its branch hall has long since been abandoned.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

But the Tian Shi Sect was holding a mysterious person captive, who had been trying to seek help from the outside. The fluctuation that occurred a hundred years ago was most likely created by this mysterious person in order to lure people in and save her from captivity.

```

Chen Heng was drawn over.

He certainly received the Tian Shi Zong's transmission, but whether he rescued the mysterious person remains unknown.

Tan Hao received Chen Heng's relics and followed his trail, also discovering a mysterious person's distress signal. He stayed here for a while before disappearing again after leaving.

“The marked place might be the Tian Shi Zong's main altar. Communication between the main altar and branch altars can be achieved through such altars, and even remotely trigger their power. There are similar records in ancient texts. The mysterious person who sealed it is unknown whether they are good or evil, but the cause-and-effect oath is quite imposing. However, Tan Hao is eager to save people, regardless of whether it's true or false, he will definitely go to the marked location to try.”

We've found clues about the Heavenly Corpse Sect, so Chen Heng's whereabouts are not as crucial anymore.

Qin Sang analyzed these messages and deduced Tan Hao's movements.

His biggest question was why Tan Hao had lived here for so long and what kind of Wuzhi clan prohibition was there

>

"Tan Hao has already rescued the mysterious person, so no one is responding to me. Then they returned here, treating this place as their den, resting for a period of time before leaving... Did the mysterious person set up the restrictions"

>

Qin Sang speculated, feeling that only this explanation could make sense of the logic.

A mysterious person, or someone proficient in the secrets of the Witch clan, or perhaps even a member of the Witch clan themselves!

Qin Sang's heart skipped a beat. The Beichen Realm and the other three realms didn't have the Wu Clan, so could this mysterious person be like Bai, an ancient Wu Clan powerhouse who had lived from ancient times to the present

Where have they gone now

As for why the mysterious person was trapped and what their relationship is with the Tian Shi Zong, Qin Sang couldn't guess. He could only go there in person to find out.

After much deliberation, Qin Sang decided to go to the image annotation location himself.

He and Tan Hao have the same goal, to find a way to save people, so they must retrace Tan Hao's path.

Qin Sang was very wary of the mysterious person.

If the mysterious person is the ancestor of the Tiansi Sect, passing down the sect's teachings, this person is likely not a righteous cultivator.

However, Tan Hao went ahead as a pioneer.

Tan Haoxiu's abilities were limited, he couldn't perfectly conceal his tracks. As long as he went to the marked locations, Qin Sang would definitely be able to find clues and make judgments and choices accordingly.

> Make sure there are no omissions.

Qin Sang flew back to the ground, urging his true essence to restore the restrictions of the stone house and all its belongings.

Thinking it over, she left two characters on one corner of the jade desk—Kui Yin.

Only Qin Sang and Tan Yien knew about the fate of the Tan brothers in Quyin Sect.
