This is also normal, with his cultivation level, there are few in the world who can oppose him. He didn't expect to be unable to suppress the insect he had raised himself.

The grey-robed man was still concerned about his venomous beast, and his voice couldn't hide the urgency. "Master, that person stole the poisonous spider. How can we cultivate the Gu King now..."

The Gu King is about to be completed. Whether there are five-colored poisonous spiders or not doesn't matter, just spend a few more years.

He glanced at his disciples and the grotesque man frowned, thinking to himself that taking shortcuts in cultivation would inevitably leave many hidden dangers. His composure was inferior to that of a newly ascended infant spirit cultivator.

"I let you choose the multi-colored venomous spider because this kind of beast is most suitable for cultivating a Gu King. Don't you think your master couldn't find you a more promising potential"

The gray-robed man shuffled, and suddenly saw his master throw him something.

It was a Gu Shen order, but its shape, pattern, and those belonging to Qin Sang were very different.

"That Stone Spirit is nothing to worry about. The other person's aura of spiritual wood is extremely pure, rare in the world. This man carries a spiritual treasure, he must be important. If we let him escape back to his lair, there will never be another chance like this. Master will suppress the Gu King first, you take this order to the nearby Weeping Spirit Cave and see the Weeping Spirit Cave master, ask him to come out of seclusion."

The man with a strange face recovered normal skin on his right hand. His thumb and index finger, which were clutching the blood hole in his palm, pinched out a jade scarab beetle.

"...hiss..."

The jade beetle is quite fierce and bites when it turns its head.

He shuddered, his left hand trembling. The wound was already festering, the flesh and blood turning to mush as the poison seeped into his veins. A sickly gray aura had spread all the way to his wrist. Thankfully, the King Cobra he'd cultivated himself could transform his left arm into deadwood, providing some protection against the venom.

The strange-faced man sneered, "Being poisoned by the King Cobra's venom is not something that can be easily recovered from. Notin Shan's Taoist priest forcefully channeled qi, at this time it will inevitably poison the lungs. If they throw him away, it's fine. Otherwise, he won't be able to escape far and will definitely leave traces!"

As he spoke, the grotesque man's body plummeted rapidly and disappeared into the ground.

The grey-robed man put away the Gu God Order, looked around, and turned to fly towards the ground.

This very moment.

In a narrow passage, flashes of blue light appeared as they darted through it. As time passed, the blue light faded, growing weaker and weaker until finally it stopped, revealing two figures: Qin Sang and Lu Zhang.

Qin Sang's complexion was normal, and he was unharmed.

Lu Zhang's face was extremely pale, and his lips were starting to turn gray.

Qin Sang saw this, his tone became serious, "Lu Daoist friend, the poison in your body..."

"He's not dead yet."

Lu Zhang's face was filled with bitterness. "What a powerful poison! In just a short while, my qi and blood have dried up, and the true energy within me has become stagnant. I took a Shou Zhen Dan to suppress the poison. Now, forcing myself to use true energy to activate the Sitting Meditation Bell, the poison is starting to surge back. Once it enters the Yuanying, even if the Yuanying escapes, it won't be able to cast the teleportation spell. It would be truly impossible to escape. This kind of fierce poison is unheard of."

Qin Sang had heard of the Shou Zhen Dan. It was said to only be able to be refined by someone who didn't think of mountains, making it incredibly precious. It could only suppress, not eliminate.

As they spoke, the green light grew fainter and fainter, until only a tiny speck of emerald-green glow remained, circling Lu Zhangfei before leaving behind a delicate trail of azure.

The once mighty Sinking Bell now retains only a trace of its original power.

>

Lu Zhang's eyes flashed with pain, he grasped Yingguang, not knowing where he put it, then coughed violently, a trace of gloom appearing between his brows.

When he used the powerful action-inducing meditation bell, it gave the toxins within him another opportunity to take hold.

Qin Sang saw that he was in a bad state and said solemnly, "You're still within the range of the underground miasma, and it's not safe. We can't stay here for long. I have a way to move stealthily through the poison, Daoist friend. If you trust me, you can temporarily seal your meridians."

"If it weren't for the Daoist's utmost effort to save me, Lu would have surely been doomed. Is there anything I couldn't trust Thank you, Daoist."

Lu Zhang nodded without hesitation, his eyes closed tightly. He secretly held a jade talisman and entered the Turtle Breath state, locking his qi and blood inside, isolating himself from the outside world.

Qin Sang struck out a ray of cold light, freezing Lu Zhang solid, and reached out to grab the ice. At the same time, he dispersed the true essence protecting his body, his figure melting into the miasma and disappearing.

Having lurked in the miasma for a long time.

Qin Sang didn't realize he was being pursued.

I wonder if it was Lu Zhang's extraordinary magical powers that directly threw the enemy off, or some other reason.

Actually, during the fight, Qin Sang noticed something was off about the strange man's movements. Based on his experience, he could sense something was amiss. For example, the jade beetle's poison was so powerful, yet he only used it once and kept it clutched in his left hand afterwards. There must be a reason for that.

One may possess a spirit treasure, but that doesn't necessarily mean they need to flee.

But there was truly no need to take such a risk. After all, the other party was a great cultivator. The possibility of victory and killing them was extremely slim, and fighting to the death would be pointless.

This is the other side's territory, they can call for help at any time.

The range of the underground miasma is far wider than imagined.

Qin Sang judged that he had already left the basin's range, but it was far from the end of the miasma. He just noted that the number of secret passages had become fewer.

He flew for a long time, hearing the rushing sound of water ahead, and discovered that there were underground rivers, not just one.

All are rivers of poison.

The water of the Dark River had been infused with poison miasma. Qin Sang, confirming that it posed little threat to himself, jumped into the Dark River and drifted downstream.

The gray-robed man flew to the ground, identified his direction, and disappeared into the air.

Outside the basin.

In a land shrouded in noxious miasma, a mountain range appears and disappears like a phantom dragon lying prone. It seems to devour anyone who dares approach, filling one with terror at the mere sight of it.

The gray-robed man flew near the mountains, not concealing his aura. As soon as he got closer, he was detected by the mountain cultivators, and a voice came from afar, "I wonder which fellow Daoist has come to our humble abode"

Before the words could even leave his mouth, a figure dashed out from the miasma.

The gray-robed man pressed down on the escaping light, secretly vigilant, "Sir, are you the master of Qiling Cave"

The arrival was a white-haired old man. He glanced at the man in gray robes and asked with doubt, "It's this old man! Fellow Daoist, you seem unfamiliar. You should not have cultivated in Nanzhou before, right"

The grey-robed man didn't answer, his wrist flicked, and he sent the Gu Shen Ling flying towards the weeping spirit cave master.

The master of the Crying Spirit Cave flicked his finger, sending out a ghostly apparition. He opened his mouth and took hold of the Gu God Order. Seeing it was the Gu God Order, his face darkened, and he said unhappily, "Didn't I say before Unless you have absolute certainty, don't even think about dragging me into this, let alone disturbing my cultivation..."

Halfway through his words, the Lord of Qiling Cave's eyes suddenly fixed on the Gu Shen Ling, and he exclaimed in shock, "Mu Xiang"

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

He suddenly looked up, scrutinizing the man in gray, "My lord, you aren't Master Mu Xiang, are you"

"It is my teacher."

The gray-robed man's lips moved, transmitting a few words.

The Spirit-Wailing Cave Master's expression shifted constantly, and finally he nodded.

The battle for the stone toad had just ended.

nearby cultivators discovered that the center of the basin had collapsed, revealing a large hole that was bottomless and filled with poisonous miasma. A lake of poisonous miasma appeared out of thin air.

This is a placeholder for a paragraph of text.

For some time after that, streaks of light occasionally flashed through the air at astonishing speeds. These were mysterious powerful figures, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

All sorts of unusual signs made the nearby cultivators tremble with fear, and they all fled the area. All kinds of strange legends began to spread throughout the cultivation world.

It wasn't until months later that the chaos subsided, gradually returning to normal. The cultivators returned to their former lives, but the large hole in the basin could never be restored.

At this time, Qin Sang had already left Nanzhou.

He took Lüzhang and floated down the Poison River, escaping safely. When he returned to the surface, he found himself in the territory of the Barbarians.

Manzhou is vast and sparsely populated.

After making sure they had shaken off their pursuers, the two of them found an uninhabited mountain and opened a cave to treat their injuries.

This is a placeholder.

Qin Sang was unharmed. After a brief pause to catch his breath, he recovered as if nothing had happened and continued to stay here guarding Lu Zhang.

>

Flashing is prohibited.

Qin Sang's expression moved slightly, and he pushed the door open to see Lu Zhang walking out of his cave dwelling.

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

Lu Zhang's face had recovered its color, and his complexion looked good. He must have eliminated the toxins from his body.

Qin Sang nodded, "Congratulations to Daoist Lu on escaping danger."

Lu Zhang sighed, then clasped his fists and bowed to Qin Sang. "Fortunately, I had foresight and invited Daoist Master along. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."

If Qin Sang hadn't restrained the monster-faced man and created an opportunity, even if he had escaped into the qingzhong, he would only have become a turtle hiding its head, who would eventually be crushed.

Qin Sang shook his head, not taking credit. "This time, I was able to escape the clutches of the demon thanks to Lu Dao's Zazhen Bell. It is truly a wondrous treasure, with multiple powerful abilities, all quite remarkable."

"The meditation bell was painstakingly developed by the ancestors of every generation, and it is the most suitable treasure for the supernatural powers of our sect. Both of these supernatural powers will cause irreversible damage to it, consuming the essence of the treasure as a price, it is the last resort for the cultivators of our sect to save their lives."

Lu Zhang explained.

Recalling the ruined meditation bell, Lu Zhang's eyes darkened.

Qin Sang comforted: "Fortunately, the origin hasn't been extinguished. With the accumulation of Bu Nian Shan, it shouldn't be difficult for Daoist friend to refine the Zuo Nian Zhong again. Compared to this, obtaining Shi Ma is even more joyful, enough to make up for the losses."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhang's expression improved slightly.

He naturally heard that Qin Sang was deliberately changing the subject, so he tactfully refrained from mentioning the spirit treasure and instead asked about Qin Sang's impression of the monster-faced man.

"The "Odd-Faced Man" was described as eccentric, his wood manipulation skills were incredible and highly skilled. Daoist Lu, could it be that you have no recollection of this person" Qin Sang countered.

In Zhongzhou, even great cultivators are rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

The path of cultivation, all it takes is one word: "competition." There's no wall in the world that wind can't pass through. As long as you step out and compete for opportunities, news will always spread and reach others' ears.

To reach such a state of cultivation, wouldn't each individual be blessed with various fortunate opportunities

Even masters of Buddhism cannot completely isolate themselves from the worldly affairs, as evidenced by the old lamps and ancient Buddha statues.

Qin Sang particularly emphasized the Wood-Shaping Ability of the Ghostly Faces rather than the Jade Armored Beetles.

It is clear that the jade beetle is an external object, while the way of wood is the fundamental principle of the strange-faced person.

Lu Zhang pondered for a long time, "The Wood Dao is one of the Five Elements Dao, and there are many cultivators who are proficient in this path. The cultivators from the two southern barbarian states have always been known for their mystery. If this person recently advanced to the later stage and has been hiding here cultivating that jade armored insect, his reputation might not have spread yet. After returning to the mountain, I will ask the sect leader brother to pay attention to this person. This person is ruthless, refining that poison, who knows how many fellow cultivators will be harmed by his poisonous hand in the future."

Once a jade beetle reaches maturity, if a cultivator without antidotes is accidentally poisoned, there is only one way to go: death.

Qin Sang was also very afraid of the strange-looking man.

The other party set their sights on his avatar; it would be difficult for them to let go. In the future, the avatar must remain vigilant at all times when outside.

After healing, the two decided to leave the place of right and wrong and return to Zhuozhou.

They detoured to the west of Manzhou, deliberately slowing their pace to observe the customs and people of Manzhou.

Soon they discovered that the influence of the Gu Shen Jiao was also spreading rapidly throughout the mortal realm in Manzhou. It seemed to have been working in secret for quite some time.

The Cult of the Venomous Insects only spreads among mortals, using tricks and schemes to deceive them. Cultivators in Manzhou see this as commonplace and scoff at it, causing no ripples in the immortal cultivation world.

If Qin Sang did not know that the Gu Shen Sect had a Yuan Ying cultivator as its protector, he would not have taken it to heart.

When the Cult of Gu comes out from the shadows, will there be a drastic change Qin Sang decided to stay out of it, letting those big sects rack their brains.

Unexpectedly, one night as they were flying over a village, Qin Sang overheard a single sentence that raised his suspicions.

The common folk of the two barbarian states lived in similar environments. The location and structure of each village were largely alike.

At night, the village below was also worshiping idols.

The commoners in the village had taken the real thing, and the scene was even more chaotic than when they first discovered the village, a true dance of demons.

After the ceremony, the elderly chieftain, nearly ninety years old, led the villagers to kneel before the statue. He muttered words, seemingly reciting some kind of scripture.

This scripture points out the location of the Immortal Paradise, stating that the deities take pity on mortals and descend their celestial palaces to this world, inviting believers. Only those with sincere faith can qualify, escaping all suffering and achieving immortality, living in peace and joy.

In the vacuum fairyland, palaces are like forests, boundless and endless, located above the South China Sea!

Qin Sang was most sensitive to the words "Xian Dian." Upon hearing them, he immediately stopped.

If it were any other cult, we could safely dismiss it as nonsense. But the Gu Shen Sect has Yuan Ying protectors, and their scriptures might actually contain hidden truths, not just fabrications.

The scripture describes the South Sea Immortal Palace as incredibly beautiful, using extravagant and flowery language.

According to Qin Sang's observations in the Ziwu Palace and Qisha Hall, there was no trace of anything matching.

However, the environments of different fairy palaces may not be the same. Furthermore, these scriptures are used to beguile mortals and will inevitably involve embellishment and exaggeration.

From earthly sects to mysterious celestial palaces.

That sounds like utter nonsense.

But Qin Sang had been investigating in the Xianxia world for many years with no progress. This was the first time he had received a seemingly credible clue, which couldn't be ignored.

He glanced at Lu Zhang beside him. When he heard the words "South Sea Immortal Palace," Lu Zhang remained expressionless.

I'm not sure what happened in Zhongzhou, and why the Heavenly Harmony Hall and the Heavenly Accord Hall are hidden so deep.

Qin Sang didn't want to draw too much attention to himself. After listening to the entire scripture, he continued north with Lu Zhang, but had already memorized the teachings of Gu Shen Jiao in his heart.

The Southern Barbarian Two States are not kind lands, the Gu Shen teachings are eerie and unpredictable. For safety's sake, it's best to wait until this deity breaks through in the future and personally investigates.

Besides the Fujiang River, there is another major river in the Central Plains—the Feiyung River.

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

The trend moves from north to south, starting from the northern barren land, passing through Zhao Yao Prefecture and the eastern part of Zhuo Prefecture, converging with the six prefectures in Jiangzuo and Fujiang after reaching the confluence. Then it branches out again, traversing the two southern barbarian states before finally flowing into the South China Sea. It traverses the Central Plains.

After leaving the state of Manzhou, the two men boarded a ship at Feiyung River and sailed upstream until they reached Zhuozhou.

The temple of Mount Bu is located on the banks of Feiyung River.

After disembarking.

Lu Zhang invited Qin Sang to go with him to Bùnián Mountain, but Qin Sang was eager to return to Púshān.

Lu Zhang no longer insisted, and said gravely: "Master Daoist, please rest assured. After I return, I will ask my senior brother, the sect leader, for the cold crystals and have someone send them to your residence..."
