In the dim space, the light of the teleportation array flickered.

The stillness was broken, replaced by heavy, labored breathing.

He transformed and destroyed the teleportation array, sending his main body down. He waited until the light of the teleportation array faded and confirmed that pursuers were not coming. He instantly felt a sense of relief.

The deity sat cross-legged.

He pressed his hand against his own chest. The wound throbbed, worse than before, but it was all worth it.

"Has Liuli escaped"

This is the part of the plan that's most likely to go wrong.

According to the plan, Liuli will make her move, distracting the others. She will break through the chaos and draw the pursuit of all the demons, while Liuli and the others can escape using the secret passages of the Golden Hall.

As long as she doesn't expose her identity in public, escaping should be easy.

But anything could happen in the Wu Xiang Xian Men. It's hard to rest easy until I see her escape with my own eyes.

He was transported to a room of modest size. The walls seemed to be made of some kind of spiritwood, with ripples of energy from an existing enchantment.

I'm grievously wounded and dare not move. I sent a manifestation to investigate the surroundings. It seems this place is similar to the one across the way, but the surrounding environment is much more dilapidated.

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

This place should have been a blessed land of cultivation, judging from the scale of the buildings here. The cultivators of this power shouldn't be numerous, but their cultivation level is definitely not inferior. It can also be inferred from the remaining restrictions that the prosperity of the past was extraordinary.

It looks like this place was affected by a great battle. The space is gray and hazy, with chaotic energy swirling around. All that's left are broken walls and rubble, nothing but ruins.

"...The Moon-Concealing Pavilion..."

Leaving the hut, he found a broken stone tablet in front of him. The inscription on the tablet was faded and barely discernible.

“This... is the sect that Liuli joined”

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

His demeanor suggested deep thought.

Such a concealed passage, for Liuli to know about it, there must be some connection.

After a moment of thought, and counting the famous Buddhist forces in Zhongzhou, I determined that I had never heard of Yanyue Temple. If its lineage hadn't been broken, it must be a hidden sect.

Similarly, there are many other hidden sects.

Especially those with intricate connections to the Wuxiang Immortal Sect, they either retreat from the world to avoid trouble or disguise themselves, hiding their true origins.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

After a quick search, Hua Shen found the entrance and quietly slipped out. To his surprise, he discovered he was near the territory of a powerful force, hidden in a deep ravine behind a magnificent Ling Shan mountain.

Upon looking at its terrain, it is actually the Que Shan where a Yuan Ying ancestor sits in meditation!

We must leave at once!

Having inspected the surroundings briefly, he made sure everything was in order and immediately returned. After taking his true form away from Yuezhi Monastery, they traveled a distance before finding a secluded place to create a temporary cave dwelling. He then settled himself there.

Then, he assumed a new identity and retreated to Mount Taishan, awaiting the arrival of Liuli.

Although his true essence had yet to recover, he struck out with the South Ming Inferno as a manifestation, then retreated afar with his main body. The exertion was immense; even after consuming some medicinal pills, he could only slowly recover.

Qin Sang then had his avatar carry the top-grade spirit stones, just in case.

At this very moment, the view of Mount Taishan is vastly different.

At the heart of the mountain range, the renowned Taoyue Gate vanished into thin air, replaced by a basin. Above the basin, the channel connecting the Wuxiang Immortal Sect appeared with a massive gap, visible for thousands of miles.

Internal and external qi clash, winds rage incessantly, and clouds stretch endlessly.

The passage is much wider and safer than it was at first.

Nearby cultivators were like ants, few coming out and many going in, jostling each other to get inside.

>

Inside the ancestral home.

Liuli and the old nun didn't intend to keep Bai Tong, they just needed to restrain him for a moment, allowing Qin Sang to break through the encirclement. Once she unleashed her Thunder Escape technique, their mission would be accomplished.

The two of them wasted no time and, taking advantage of the chaos, retreated according to their original plan.

Several demon kings who were not proficient in escape techniques were left behind. They tried to turn back and encircle the two, but Qin Sang disrupted their demonic formation first, causing them to lose their opportunity. Moreover, Old Ni and Liuli knew the Golden Phase Hall even better than Qin Sang.

Even with the remaining Demon King, it would be difficult to do anything in the Golden Hall, where the protective mountain formation was almost complete.

They stealthily left the Golden Hall and rushed straight to the gate of Mount Wuxiangxianmen. Before reaching the gate, they suddenly saw a golden light like a rainbow in front of them, sweeping through the air with lightning speed. It turned out to be a high monk from the Ganlu Chan Monastery.

The hands brought by the Holy Light arrived late.

>

Luli and Lao Ni glanced at each other, not daring to pause, and flew outwards.

The Buddhist forces are approaching, we must leave quickly!

As they were about to leave the mountain gate, Liuli seemed to have noticed something, her expression flickered. She said a few words to the old monk, who simply nodded slightly and didn't press for details. He took the lead and walked forward.

The glass figurine flew out alone, far away from the crowd, and landed on a remote mountain peak. Then, a figure followed.

Liuli turned around, only to see Qin Sang's avatar. She frowned and asked, "Is your true body still nearby"

“I haven't thanked the fairy yet, I dare not walk alone.”

The Incarnation smiled and pointed into the distance, "This deity's injuries are severe, currently hiding somewhere to recover my strength. I have no protectors around, so perhaps we can talk as we walk"

The Lake of Suspension.

Due to the reckless actions of the Qinghu Saint King, a promising situation was ruined.

The demonic body was nearly free, all the advantages it had accumulated before were lost in an instant, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and it almost reached a point of no return.

Though the sage Huiguang exerted his might to turn the tide, the pressure on the Qinghu Saint King and Elder Fan among others immediately intensified. The few could only curse inwardly.

A terrifying magical might pressed down on them, making them tread carefully, not daring to relax for a moment.

The pressure on the Azure Fox Saint King was greater. Not only did his three phantoms perish, but his main body was also injured. He dared not act rashly anymore and had no time to pay attention to Qin Sang's side. He simply treated it as Bai Yue leading troops to encircle and suppress a near-helpless fellow, believing it would be foolproof.

Not until they had managed to stabilize their footing and relax somewhat did the crowd notice the dejected demons returning, and the raging White Tiger.

The fair face of the Holy King Qinghu instantly darkened.

Elder Fan and the others had various expressions on their faces. Some were gloating, while others were astonished that the fellow could still escape under such circumstances.

No matter where Qin Sang ran to.

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

The most pressing issue is the suppression of ancient demons.

A few thoughts flashed through their minds, and the crowd put aside their distractions, focusing on dealing with the ancient demon.

Then, Bai Wei, who had returned empty-handed, joined the battle. Buddhist monks also arrived, and as the number of participants grew, the battle formation became more stable, shifting the situation in a positive direction.

Finally.

The heartfire around the Holy Light diminished.

A flicker of heartfire appeared, instantly drawing everyone's attention. It gathered into a phantom flame and floated towards the chest of the Holy One of Hui Guang, causing his robes to tremble slightly before the heartfire vanished.

The Holy One of Wisdom extended his right hand, and the Demon Sealing Stake fell into his palm.

The two sections of the sealing demon pillar have merged as one. The cracks are no longer visible, and a layer of black sheen floats on its surface. Its aura is also vastly different from before.

Especially when it corresponds with the Fumo Array on the lotus platform, the surface of the Sealing Demon Stake is rippling with black lightning, like claws reaching out and slashing.

Upon closer inspection, it can be seen that the black lightning is clearly composed of numerous tiny chains, resembling the binding ropes used to restrain demons in shape and design.

Facing everyone's expectations, the Holy Light gently exhaled, "I have lived up to your hopes."

Immediately, the venerable Master of Wisdom's expression turned solemn, his voice grave as he declared, “Please, fellow cultivators, lend a hand to this poor monk!”

As soon as the words were spoken.

The Zen meditation formation shifted abruptly, and the elders like Fan Lao Mo dispersed in all eight directions, their bodies nearly pressed against the edge of the hovering lake, encircling the demon body at its center.

At the same time, the waves of Lake Void were churning wildly, but unlike before, there was no feeling of imminent collapse. A heavy pressure frantically gathered towards the center of the lake.

The bright moon shone with brilliance, seemingly endless. Its light was so tangible that the entire mansion could be seen bathed in a thick, dazzling beam of moonlight illuminating the demon body.

With the combined strength of the Zen Meditation Arhat Formation, Elder Fan and his allies launched a simultaneous attack.

At this moment, the demonic body was bearing pressure far exceeding anything it had ever endured.

The demonic body instinctively sensed the threat, roaring towards the sky, its roar echoing across the land. A five-colored brilliance tore through the lake water, illuminating the heavens as it collided with the attacks of the Azure Fox Holy King and others.

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

In the blink of an eye, a stunning celestial phenomenon formed in the sky. A deafening roar echoed like thunder as the earth trembled violently.

Within the chaotic radiance, one could no longer see the figures of the Qinghu Saint King and others.

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

At this moment, the Holy One of Wisdom maintained his lotus posture as he rose from the lotus platform. The lotus petals on the platform opened one by one, and the entire platform lay flat in mid-air. The Buddha’s light gradually subsided, suppressed by the fluctuations emitted by the Demon Subduing Array.

The Holy Light Sage flung the demon-suppressing staff from his hand.

As if made of Xuan iron, the iron stake hung suspended above the Fumo Formation. It stood still, but the black lightning on its surface flickered more and more violently.

The Holy One of Wisdom gazed at the Sealing Demon Stake, and as they struck a seal towards the Demonic Subjugation Formation, the stake trembled slightly. It then suddenly vanished, only to reappear atop the demon's body the next moment.

At this time, the Demon Sealing Stake's body swelled dramatically, like a huge iron pillar.

'Boom!'

The Sealing Demon Stake stood tall in the sky, seeming to cause even the void itself to tremble. The suspended lake also rippled with its power. Witnessing this spectacle, everyone was both amazed and delighted, their hearts filled with anticipation.

The black lightning also expanded, clearly showing chains of links. With a tug from the Saint of Wisdom's finger, the chains acted like living things, all pointing towards the demon's body and suddenly springing out, drilling into the lake heart like snakes.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...

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

The sound of the void was quickly drowned out by the roar of the demon body.

The roar was even more frenzied and furious than before, sending shivers down anyone's spine who heard it.

The thick chains strained taut, one end fastened to the demon-suppressing stake, the other piercing through the demonic aura encasing the demon's body, winding and binding it tightly.

With the chains tightening, it seemed as though they would drag the demon body towards the demon-suppressing stake.

But the demonic body wouldn't surrender. It stared fixedly at the Sealing Demon Stake, launching a relentless and terrifying counterattack. Qinghu Saint King and the others hadn't relaxed yet, continuously attacking the demonic body to prevent it from destroying the Sealing Demon Stake.

The sound of rushing water was incessant.

A faint golden light appeared at the original fissure of the Sealing Demon Stake, resembling a ring of gold hoop. As the demonic body fiercely retaliated, the golden light became increasingly prominent.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but feel frightened.

Fortunately, the Sealing Demon Stake was incredibly sturdy and restrained the demonic body, showing no signs of breaking. Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone launched a fierce counterattack.

I don't know how long ago it was.

The bright moon has vanished.

The clouds dissipated and the water receded.

Old Master Fan and the others either stood or sat, silently adjusting their breath.

>

Thinking back on that life-or-death battle just now, everyone felt a sense of relief after the ordeal.

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

The Demon Sealing Stake stood silently where the lake's heart once was. Chains bound a shadowy figure to it, and grunts unlike any human voice emanated from it.

Hearing the frenzied shouts and seeing the demonic form's current state, they felt a chill run down their spines.

The demon body could still maintain a humanoid form, able to discern the outlines of limbs, head, and torso. But rather than being a human, it was more like an amorphous mass of flesh and blood.

The dazzling five-element crown was embedded in this mass of flesh, looking jarring no matter how you looked at it.

The Wise Light Saint sat cross-legged in front of the Demon Sealing Stake, surrounded by other high monks who chanted scriptures and recited incantations. Their hand gestures changed continuously, unleashing magic seals that transformed into golden light, aimed at the demonic body, suppressing its fiery aura step by step.

At that time, a high monk approached the sage of Huiguang and whispered a few words in his ear.

Immediately, the two turned their heads and looked at the Azure Fox Saint King.

The Azure Fox Saint King was closing his eyes to meditate, sensing something, he opened his eyes and looked over.

Huiguang the Holy One rose and walked through the air, arriving before the Qinghu Saint King. He raised his hand to cut off the sound and spoke in a deep voice: "This monk originally thought that you and I were both trapped beasts, and should have worked together!"

You can't be distracted. I will take action myself and kill that person. Wouldn't that fulfill your wish and help eliminate the threat to Lanruo Temple Besides you, how many in Lanruo Temple could even stand against him

The Azure Fox Saint King lightly raised her jade hand, smoothing down the strands of hair that had fallen across her forehead, a smile playing on her lips.

Hui Guang's gaze was sharp and intimidating, unfazed by Qing Hu Sheng Wang's sarcasm. He directly questioned, "If I were to obtain the Zhen Ling Xiang, how would the Holy King intend to blackmail this monk"

The Azure Fox Saint King no longer acted arrogantly, his expression turned cold, and his smile became a sneer: "When disaster strikes, you old monk would rather waste time paving the way for your sect. Don't you think this is selfish You don't even consider that the fate of your dilapidated temple has nothing to do with me! Since that's the case, what's wrong with me planning for myself When will you be able to abandon external attachments and focus on preparing for the Eastern Crossing Ascension before questioning me!"

The Sage of Wisdom remains unmoved.

>

The Qinghu Saint King had her plans, and he had his own persistence.

>

This old bald donkey!

The Qihuxing King cursed under his breath, and sneered, "That person not only has the Zhenshilingxiang, but is even willing to trade it. They likely have the Zhenshilingxiang formula in their hands. Even if they don't have the formula, they must have more than one Zhenshilingxiang, otherwise they wouldn't dare to be so extravagant! The Zhenshilingxiang is different from other pills; it is a fragrance refined by combining various medicinal properties. The person who created the Zhenshilingxiang was a genius, but there is still room for improvement in this incense. If we can obtain the formula and continue to develop it based on that person's ideas, incorporating compatible and even more potent and rare spiritual herbs, there is a chance to refine an even higher grade of Zhenshilingxiang, more reliable than any other method. Regardless of anything else, the formula must be obtained!"

This principle, the Wise Light Saint naturally understands.

The story of the Town-Protecting Incense originated from what the Azure Fox Holy King learned from the Rat Demon.

Just now, seeing the Green Fox Saint King insist on attacking Qin Sang, the Wise Light Saint couldn't help but have some doubts.

Even if the treasure was precious, the Qinghu Saint King should not have disregarded the risk of escaping his demonic body and failing to let the Demon King come to his aid after a slip-up. His insistence on pursuing Qin Sang was ultimately a case of losing sight of the bigger picture for the sake of petty vengeance.

The Sage of Wisdom Light, worried that the Heavenly Demon Sound matter might shake the hearts of his disciples, temporarily kept it a secret. He was determined to eliminate all demons that would appear during the Zhongyuan Dharma Assembly and cleanse the sect's path, so he focused on gathering resources to investigate the movements of various forces. As a result, his disciples did not report the details of the trading meeting.

After inquiring, I learned that Nan Ming Lihuo had once appeared in Zhongzhou, and it was to deal with the demon king under the command of Qinghu Saint King. Since there was a Zhenlingxiang incense at that trade fair, I deduced the situation.

Even knowing the Azure Fox Sacred King had ulterior motives, it was impossible to confront him directly on the spot.

The Enlightened One remained silent for a moment before saying, "As long as the Holy King can control his greed, there is still hope."
