A cold wind blew across the wasteland.

First, a silver-white sword light swept across the sky, and after a while, another green glow flew over.

>

As two streaks of light flashed past, the surrounding grass and trees swayed, and two figures darted by on either side.

Qin Sang and his party of four, led by the sword-wielding Zhen Ren, kept a certain distance between each other, just in case they encountered an unexpected danger.

In fact, they had only been in the Niyuan for three days. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't encounter a Nascent Soul level beast. This was simply out of habitual caution.

Powerful beasts mostly wander in the depths of the Abyssal Plains, rarely appearing on the edges. Entering the vicinity of Mount G is even rarer.

If a divine-level ferocious beast were to appear nearby, even the Daoist sect would find it a major headache.

Chūma, Shirake and Tsuma villages, though connected, still had large tracts of borderlands and demon swamps adjacent to them. They were frequently raided by ferocious beasts.

According to Qin Sang's knowledge, the highest cultivation level of the mountain gods and river gods under the Dao Court was only in the Nascent Soul stage.

Unless Dao Ting dispatches all immortal officials of Rank Four and above to guard the borders, there will be no peace within the realm.

'Bang!'

Qin Sang pressed the palm of his hand on the brow of a monkey demon, and the monkey demon fell to the ground silently.

His figure moved without pause, drifting past. His eyes were like lightning, scanning the area nearby.

Though he encountered many ferocious beasts along the way, he rarely got a chance to make a move.

Savage beasts are not entirely devoid of reason. As their cultivation deepens and time passes, they gradually become afflicted by the Qi of the Six Heavens, eventually losing themselves to its influence.

Lower-level ferocious beasts are only a few points more ferocious and cruel than demons, not much different.

Even the real beasts, with their instinct to avoid danger, sensed the aura emitted by Qin Sang and his companions, and scattered like birds.

Just as cultivators entering the Abyssal Plain wouldn't lose their way in a short amount of time,

Even if one remained in the depths of hell for ten years, they would not lose their reason.

However, once it exceeds the limits of the talisman formation, the Qi of the Six Heavens residing in the cultivator's primordial spirit root becomes extremely difficult to expel. This change is gradual and subtle. The cultivator may not initially feel any difference, and their cultivation remains unaffected. However, it has already become a hidden danger.

The deeper one delves into the path of following one's desires, the greater the eventual explosion, and the more regrettable it will be.

Therefore, cultivators entering the Abyssal Origin either need to plan ahead meticulously or bring enough spiritual pills.

At first, the four of them still communicated intermittently. Later on, it was just a monotonous journey.

After more than a month of traveling, the four ventured deeper into the Netherworld. The surrounding scenery became increasingly wild.

"Ahead lies a mountain. Further on, we might encounter ferocious beasts of equal strength to ours. The area around here is relatively quiet. Let's take a moment to rest and recover."

The transmission from the Sword Master arrived suddenly, accelerating their pace. Everyone followed suit, and soon they arrived before the mountain.

Seeing the scene at the peak, Qin Sang's eyes flashed with surprise. However, Zhijian Zhenren and the others seemed unconcerned, jumping down to the mountaintop and each finding a stone to sit on in meditation.

Qin Sang finally arrived, landing beside the crowd on a black stone.

He stood upon a black stone, square and sharp-edged. Qin Sang spread his divine sense and found that there were many such stones nearby, but most were heavily damaged and lay scattered on the surrounding hillsides.

These black stones could not have been formed naturally; they are clearly man-made.

Observing the traces on the mountaintop, Qin Sang made a new discovery, "This... seems to be the ruins of a Taoist temple..."

This surprised Qin Sang quite a bit. This place was certainly not near Mount Gu, and four cultivators at the Huashen stage had walked for a month. Although they had various concerns and did not go all out on their journey.

Yuanying cultivators definitely wouldn't dare to linger here. Who would build a Taoist temple in such a place

Moreover, Qin Sang noticed that the ruins here were very old, an ancient temple. The traces showed that after being abandoned, it was occupied by ferocious beasts. For some unknown reason, this lair was now deserted again.

Could it be that there were cultivators here before the Calamity

Qin Sang's heart flickered, even suspecting that this place and the Gu Shan were similar, originally both within the sphere of influence of the Taoist sect.

With this speculation, Qin Sang couldn't help but have more associations.

Since there's a Taoist temple here, it means this place was once suitable for monks to practice cultivation. Why did it become an evil place

At this time, the real person Zhjian shifted his gaze and said, "Daoist Qingfeng, pay attention to stabilizing your mind behind you."

"Thank you for reminding me, poor Daoist knows the severity of the situation."

Qin Sang slightly bowed his hand, put away his thoughts, and sat cross-legged.

With the Jade Buddha's protection, he had nothing to worry about. He still put on a show and entered the depths of the Niyuan, occasionally taking a spirit pill.

After resting, the group continued on their journey.

Unexpectedly, they hadn't left the mountain for long when they encountered their first Nascent Soul-level ferocious beast!

"Roar!"

A roar came from the front. Perhaps because it was too far away, it sounded a bit muffled.

But the ferocity in its roar sent a chill down their spines, causing them to stop immediately.

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

It was just nightfall.

The moonlight is like water.

One could only see a dim expanse of wild land in the north, with vast swathes of dark clouds seeming to fill the sky. The wind stirred them up, causing them to billow and slowly press down towards where they stood.

The real person Yuhuang's jade finger lightly tapped, a green glow shot out from his fingertips, transforming into a talisman in mid-air and disappearing into an ancient tree on the ground.

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

The ancient tree withered instantly, and then a shadowy figure of a wooden man leaped out from the dead wood. People could barely feel the presence of the wooden man, or perhaps its aura had merged with the forest.

The wooden man bowed to the Immortal Yu Huang, then burrowed into the ground and disappeared.

Qin Sang noticed Youhuang Zhenren's movements and couldn't help but glance at him a few more times.

Previously, when encountering ferocious beasts, they were mostly dealt with casually by him and the solitary cloud real person. The Youhuang real person rarely had the chance to make a move.

At this time, she was casting a divine talisman, but did not reveal the talisman array.

“This talisman is one of You Huang’s natal talismans, most adept at investigation. The results will be forthcoming shortly…”

The true person Zhijian transmitted his voice to explain. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Only talismans that carry divine script are called one's true talisman. You Huang Zhenren has received three-tiered divine scripts, so he possesses three true talismans.

Qin Sang pondered for a moment before voicing his doubts.

In the eyes of others, he was a lucky stray cultivator who had just broken through. It was normal for him to have limited experience.

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

"When you've received the three-tiered talismans, Daoist friend, you will understand. Once you reach the Cave of Mystery's magical realm, the talisman platform will gradually become stable. As long as you have mastered a talisman, even if you perform your natal true talisman, there is no need to summon the talisman platform again. But if you haven't thoroughly comprehended the talisman, you must summon the talisman platform and rely on its power. Of course, this only applies to the Golden Seal Platform..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Sang secretly nodded. No wonder he hadn't seen the summoning talisman from the Swordmaster before.

>

One advantage of the Golden Seal Altar over the Army Altar is that it doesn't require prior troop formations. A thought can instantly unleash a curse.

“However,” Zhijian Zhenren suddenly changed his tone, “it is said that the Bingma Altar, when built deep enough, can also bypass the summoning of troops and horses, directly communicating with the troops within the altar and forming an array instantly.”

"The lonely cloud Zhenren chuckled coldly, "This poor Dao has never seen such a master before. Who knows if it's true or false."

As they spoke, a green shadow sprang from the ground and vanished into You Huang's palm.

"The real person You Huang showed joy on his face. "It's a wood Jiao! Its aura is only slightly higher than ours, and there are no other demon marquis-level ferocious beasts nearby."

“Wood Serpent Friend, do you wish to take this serpent’s demon core to forge a platform”

Zhijian Zhenren guessed the intention of Youhuang Zhenren.

What the venerable Yu Huang practiced was indeed the Wooden Walking Talisman.

To build a three-tiered talisman platform, one needs spiritual objects that are either rare earthly treasures or the essence blood, bones, and demon pills of powerful demons.

The demon marquis of the Ghost Country is not so easy to kill.

A suitable ferocious beast is hard to come by, no wonder Master Youhuang is delighted.

“At the mid-stage of the Cave Profound Realm, what do you two think” Zhijian Zhenren looked at Qin Sang and Gūyún Zhenren.

Gu Yun Zhen moved his neck, bursting with fighting spirit, his attitude speaking volumes.

Qin Sang also nodded in agreement.

The four of them are all at the initial stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. Hunting a beast comparable to a Thunder Turtle, there shouldn't be any danger.

"Thank you, three friends, for making this possible," Youhuang Zhenren smiled and gave a graceful bow.

They immediately flew toward the ferocious beast, discussing their plan. Suddenly, they sensed the presence of cultivators below.

"First, send these people away," said the real person of Zhjian, in a deep voice.

They came for the Demon Marquis and didn't want to expose their identities too early.

Inside a cave.

>

Three Taoist priests were busy, all with anxious expressions on their faces.

One person summoned talismans at the altar, continuously striking them towards the entrance of the cave. Gradually, a dark wall of light formed at the mouth of the cave.

In front of the other two was a incense burner. Together, they activated it, and thick smoke filled the small cave. Both the smoke and the light wall had the ability to conceal their breath.

All three were Ascendant Xuan True Men.

"Senior brother, won't that ferocious beast find us"

Please note that I only translated the content within the > markers. The HTML tags remain as they were. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

To the left of the incense burner stood a female cultivator, her voice trembling with fear.

“I wish I hadn't gone so deep. The traces outside haven't even had time to be erased. There are rarely any demon marquis-level beasts here,” the Taoist priest busy sealing the cave entrance complained.

The last middle-aged Taoist priest sensed the aura outside before saying, "Don't worry, senior brother and sister. The fiercer the beast, the lower its intelligence. It couldn't find us by following tracks. We'll be safe once it flies past."

The words had not yet finished.

Suddenly, a cold snort echoed through the air, accompanied by an astonishing pressure that descended upon them. "You have guts," it boomed, "to dare come here."

"Wow!"

The three of them changed color dramatically, jumping to their feet, but they couldn't find any other figures. The middle-aged Taoist bowed to the empty space, "We didn't know that senior was here. We were trying to avoid being disturbed by ferocious beasts and we apologize for disturbing you. When the ferocious beast flies away, we will leave immediately."

“There’s no need to wait, leave now. It won’t find you,” the voice was cold and unquestionable.

The three of them glanced at each other, all indignant and worried, but the invisible pressure prevented them from even thinking about resistance.

>

With hearts heavy with sorrow, the three of them broke the seal of the cave entrance and stepped out, only to be called back by a mysterious figure.

"Wait! How long have you been here Have you noticed anything unusual"

The middle-aged Taoist's expression brightened, and he hurriedly said: "We arrived here ten days ago. Previously, a large group of ferocious beasts had rushed out from the depths of the Abyssal Origin. We watched for several days, seeing no other abnormalities, and feeling lucky, we did not retreat."

The four of them in mid-air glanced at each other.

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

“That place is still farther north, it shouldn't affect this place so soon, right” Guyun Zhenren questioned.

"Perhaps someone tampered with it halfway Time is of the essence, slay Mu Jiao and set off immediately," Master Jian commanded. Everyone dispersed instantly, taking up their positions.

The three Ascending Xuan True Humans walked out of the cave abode. Seeing Mu Jiao change its direction of flying, they were sure it hadn't noticed them, and couldn't help but rejoice. Without looking back, they fled from the place.

Here we go!

In one valley, Qin Sang and the Lone Cloud Immortal stood respectively on either side of a mountain peak, watching the approaching dark clouds.

Ahead of the dark clouds, a slender green shadow flickered in and out of sight.

Gu Yun Zhenren crossed his arms, his black light flickering, and suddenly a long spear appeared in his palm.

>

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

The spiritual gun was pitch black all over, with a cold and piercing luster. The blade faintly revealed a bloody glow, at first glance it was evident that it was an unparalleled murderous weapon.

With a spiritual gun in hand, the fighting spirit of Lone Cloud True Person rose steadily, building layer upon layer.

Compared to him, Qin Sang was much more restrained. He didn't unleash his spiritual wood body, and while golden light flowed around his surface, he only circulated the Vajra Heavenly Stomach Seal.

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

'Roar!'

A furious dragon's roar echoed, deafeningly loud.

Dark clouds churned, splitting apart to reveal a slender figure over a hundred zhang long. Its giant eyes blazed with terrifying ferocity, its head crowned with sharp points, and its entire body was covered in thick green scales.

With a whoosh!

The Mu Jiao suddenly whipped its long tail, as if it had cracked open a green chasm in the void.

At this moment, Qin Sang and Gu Yun Zhenren's hearts skipped a beat, let alone Yu Huang Zhenren who faced the Mu Jiao head-on.

Every point of cultivation increase for a Spirit God cultivator will cause the Heavenly Might they attract to become significantly stronger.

Although the Mu Jiao is a ferocious beast, every move it makes instinctively wields the power of heaven and earth to suppress its enemies. Furthermore, it never holds back when attacking.

In You Huang's eyes, this was not a dragon's tail.

In an instant, the terrifying pressure descended with the dragon's tail. Yu Huang Zhenren felt himself sinking into quicksand. This blow seemed capable of shattering the void and obliterating him from existence.

The Venerable Youhuáng was well-prepared, calm and collected. With a flicker of his body, he transformed into a phantom inscribed with talismans.

'Bang!'

The tail of the dragon swept across, shattering the talisman at once.

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

At the same time, countless fist-sized green light spots rose from the ground forest. The light spots converged and formed a human shape, which was exactly You Huang Zhenren.

The great master Youhuang remained unharmed, but this act enraged the Wood Jiao.

The Mu Jiao dove down with a roar, its eyes filled with intense malice. Its eyes had even turned white.

The next moment, all the grass and trees ignited from within with a ghastly white flame.

Flames surged into the sky, but strangely, the forest within the sea of fire remained unharmed.

Yu Huang Zhenshen's complexion turned slightly pale, and he felt a strange force surging within him, threatening to deplete his vital energy. He hurriedly cast a spell to suppress it.

At this moment, Mu Jiao descended from the sky, flames blazing fiercely, capable of incinerating heaven itself. One could not see Mu Jiao's true form with their eyes; only a blanket of white flames engulfed the world.

"Beast! You deserve to die!"

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out.

Lonely Cloud True Person glared at White Flame, his fighting spirit surging. He leaped into the air, his entire being like a tiger unleashed from its cage.

With a flick of the wrist, he hurled the spirit gun with force, transforming into a black streak of lightning.

The spiritual gun spun rapidly, powerful force forming a black vortex at the tip. The vortex grew larger and larger; just being grazed by it caused half a mountain to collapse.

The sounds of thunder and lightning roared, surging into the white flame in an instant, blasting a black hole open within the sea of fire.

The Mu Jiao was exposed in the black hole.

Just then, a figure appeared beside Mu Jiao. It was Qin Sang, his hand clutching the Demonic Subduing Seal.

At this moment, a strange gleam flashed in Qin Sang's eyes.

Being so close to Mu Jiao, with a cultivation level lower than his by one layer, he couldn't sense the oppressive power of Heaven and Earth from him.

"How is that possible"

Qin Sang was also extremely surprised. Even at his peak, he had to avoid the sharp edge of Lei Gui.

In a flash of thought, Qin Sang swiftly traced back to the source and was astonished to discover that the power of his dharma form within him was trembling.at there was a secret hidden on this person.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!A man in white appeared unexpectedly.The battlefield seemed to freeze for a moment.He look...
