Qin Sang nodded and said, "Liang Yan has already been killed by me. Go quickly to save Shi Jing's senior sister."He had already figured out the restrictions on Liang Yan's cave dwelling.The two immedi...The clouds towered, and the first gatehouse in front displayed a wooden plaque bearing the inscription “Five Elements Alliance”. It was unremarkable. The plaque was made from an ordinary kind of spiritwood, conveying no sense of oppression to visitors and leaving them wanting nothing more than to pass by.

Qin Sang had previously passed by the gate of Tiangong Pavilion, and his style was completely different from that of the Five Elements Alliance.

Along the way, when we reached the twentyth heaven, there were constant streams of visitors in front of the Wuxing Alliance gate. This clearly shows how popular it is.

Qin Sang strode into the Wuxing Alliance, and immediately a maidservant with a bright smile came up to greet him.

However, before the maidservant could speak, a young man hurried over and cleared his throat. "You may go now," he said. "I shall attend to this senior."

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

Qin Sang did not deliberately conceal his aura.

Even in Baiyujing, Refining Void cultivators are not common sights. Those at the Nascent Soul and Mahayana stages are even rarer than dragons appearing before your eyes.

“Yes!” The maid didn’t hesitate, bowing respectfully, and gracefully stepping aside to let the next guest pass. Her smile remained undimmed as she went forward to greet them.

"Senior, please."

The young man personally led the way, bringing Qin Sang to a quiet chamber. He ordered someone to serve fragrant tea and exotic fruits, treating him with utmost courtesy.

"May I inquire about your Dharma name, senior" the young man asked, bowing respectfully.

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

“My surname is Qin, and my given name is Sang,” said Qin Sang.

Although he had prepared to use the Five Elements Alliance as a cover, Qin Sang decided to act under his real name.

Once one's identity is exposed while drawing the sword, being forced to flee far away, the difference between a real name and an alias becomes insignificant. The name "Qin Sang" might instead become widely known, recognized by those who once knew him.

"Greetings, senior Qin," the young man bowed slightly. "I wonder what needs you may have The Five Elements Alliance will do our utmost to fulfill them. Even if this branch is unable to, our headquarters is located on the thirtieth heaven. I can immediately contact the elders there for assistance."

The Five Elements Alliance does more than just forge weapons; it has branches throughout the Eight Heavenly States, scouring the land for spiritual materials. It can be said that if you're looking for any kind of material used in forging, if you can't find it at the Five Elements Alliance, no other merchant guild would likely have it either.

Qin Sang was in no hurry to reveal his true intentions. He took out a jade slip and asked, "Do you have these kinds of spiritual creatures"

The young man took it over, probing it with his divine sense and nodded. "They're all here. I wonder how many senior Qin needs Also, these few kinds of spiritual objects are generally not for sale outside. I hope senior will understand."

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

Qin Sang frowned, "General Which kind of spirit beasts"

This is a simple translation task. Please provide me with the text you want translated, and I will do my best to translate it into English for you.

The list of spirits in the Jade Script included some that he genuinely needed, others added randomly to confuse and mislead, and even some required for building a Taoist altar were mixed in.

The youth pointed out one by one that the primordial essence of Bihen was prominent, and Qin Sang couldn't help but rejoice for getting a large sum from Biko Cave Heaven.

"Since you possess these spiritual creatures, why not sell them to Qin Are you worried that Qin cannot afford the price"

Qin Sang pretended to be displeased and snorted coldly.

"Senior, please calm down," the young man bowed deeply, his voice respectful but firm. "This is a rule set by the Elder Master of our alliance. As a junior member, I have no authority to change it. If Senior Qin urgently needs this item, I will go and ask Elder Qi. Perhaps he can make some concessions."

Qin Sang gave a light "um" and said, "Go."

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

“This junior will take his leave!”

The young man hurried away. Not long after, the restriction outside the door was triggered.

Qin Sang stood up straight and said in a deep voice, "Please come in."

At that moment, a ruddy-faced elderly man with a smile on his face and a gentle demeanor walked in through the door.

"Qi Mu has met Qin, Daoist Friend. Before, this junior if there was slow treatment, I still hope that Qin, Daoist Friend, do not blame."

Alliances like the Five Elements Alliance certainly value refining skills, but cultivation level is also one of the most important factors for assessment. This Elder Qi's cultivation level is similar to mine, it seems that a cultivator at the Refining Void stage can become an elder in the Five Elements Alliance, I just don't know how high the position of 'elder' is.

Qin Sang turned these thoughts over, got up and bowed, "Elder Qi, you flatter me. Master Zhao, due to his limitations in authority, couldn't fulfill my request, so I had to trouble Elder Qi with this."

"Qi has already understood the situation and is here to explain to his friends," Elder Qi gestured for Qin Sang to take a seat across from him, "It's not intentional targeting of you. Our alliance does have this rule. You certainly know the value of those few kinds of spirit creatures. First, they are indeed rare, and it was quite difficult for our alliance to collect them. Second, the number is limited. We must first provide them to our own alchemists, ensure self-sufficiency, and satisfy some untouchable guests before considering others. Because our alliance has a reputation, we can't directly say no to the outside world. If we do, no one will believe it. So we have to spend more words."

Elder Qi wore a wry smile. He had spoken frankly enough this time.

Qin Sang had expected this, but she didn't believe that the Five Elements Alliance would truly not sell. After all, doing business was about price. Maybe they just weren't being offered enough.

This level of transaction definitely requires bartering. As long as Qin Sang brings out a spiritual object of higher value, I don't believe the Five Elements Alliance will resist.

The problem is, this kind of significantly overpriced trading, with Qin Sang's wealth, simply can't be sustained for many times. It's not a long-term solution.

...knocks...

Qin Sang lightly tapped the table with his finger, "Qi Daoist means that as long as you become one of us, everything can be negotiated"

Elder Qi was slightly startled, carefully observing Qin Sang, and said in a solemn voice: "If Daoist friend joins the Five Elements Alliance, you will naturally enjoy many conveniences. However..."

"But what Do you only accept Refining Master as your disciples" Qin Sang smiled and asked.

"Of course not. With your cultivation, my alliance would be honored to have you. However, there are two things to consider. First, while enjoying the convenience, you'll also need to do things for our alliance. Can you accept that Second, the path of artifact refinement is the foundation of our alliance. We naturally value Artifact Refinement Masters more internally. I mention this upfront to avoid future resentment," Elder Qi said frankly.

Cultivators in the Refining Void stage are not common, and they do exist, but can such a headstrong person truly settle down within a power faction

Moreover, in the Bai Yu Jing, there are too many choices better than the Five Elements Alliance.

Elder Qi believes that Qin Sang is unlikely to join the Five Elements Alliance for a few spiritual objects.

Seeing Elder Qi's attitude, Qin Sang guessed what he was thinking and stopped probing. He replied honestly: "To be frank with you, I have also immersed myself in the way of refining artifacts for many years and have personally crafted a few spirit treasures."

As soon as these words left his mouth, Elder Qi's expression changed instantly.

"Daoist Qin, you remain hidden from view, but it seems my old eyes have failed me," Elder Qi's gaze was noticeably more fervent than before.

“Excuse me, Master Qin. Have you ever joined any other forces of the Alchemy Dao before, such as the Tongtian Pavilion” Elder Qi first inquired about Qin Sang’s background. Worried that Qin Sang might misunderstand, he quickly explained, “Our alliance is named after the alliance meeting, and most fellow cultivators in the alliance have multiple identities, including those who are sect masters. However, there are inevitably disputes between major forces, so we need to ask clearly beforehand to allow Master Qin to avoid any conflicts and make things easier for you.”

“Qin was accustomed to going his own way, having heard that the rules here were not strict. He decided to come visit on a whim and hadn't been to Tongtian Pavilion yet,” Qin Sang shook his head and said.

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

Elder Qi's eyes were getting brighter and brighter.

A master alchemist of the Refining Void period who still lives a solitary life is quite rare. Being able to recommend one person to the alliance is a great accomplishment.

Could it be that they just ascended from a small thousand world That's fantastic! These people are like blank slates in the Great Thousand World, and each one possesses exceptional talent. They have limitless potential for the future; we must do everything we can to keep them!

He wasn't worried at all that Qin Sang was a spy sent by another force with ulterior motives. Over time, people's true colors will be revealed. The Five Elements Alliance, because of its loose structure, had countless "spies". They had ample experience dealing with these people.

Elder Qi said seriously: "Daoist Qin, you came to the right place. Throughout Great Zhou, there is no force more suitable for Daoist Qin than our alliance. Joining our alliance not only allows you to enjoy the convenience within the alliance, but also offers many benefits outside."

"Oh I wonder what the benefits are" Qin Sang became interested.

“For example, the nine teleportation arrays between major celestial states and Baiyu City each time cost a considerable amount. Daoist friend, by joining our alliance, you will not only enjoy discounts, but also be able to bring two disciples every time…” Elder Qi’s example sounded mercenary, yet it was a tangible benefit.

Qin Sang couldn't help but feel emotional. He had always speculated about who was in control of the Nine Great Shifting Arrays.

>

The Nine Shifting Formations are to the human race much like lifelines. Even the Zhou King could not decide his own lifespan, so all parties would certainly not tolerate the Zhou King controlling the Nine Shifting Formations.

Now it seems that all the clans and top forces of the human race have gotten involved, hoping to get a share of the pie.

The fact that the Great Zhou Dynasty exists indicates that, overall, there is stability within the human race. Under this circumstance, various factions check and balance each other while also seeking allies and mutual benefit. By relying on a particular force, they can enjoy conveniences in other areas, which clearly outweighs the drawbacks.

“Are these all the perks that a guest elder can enjoy” Qin Sang mused.

"Excellent! Elder Qi said enthusiastically, "If Daoist Qin truly becomes a member of the Five Elements Alliance, our alliance welcomes him with open arms."

The Wuxing Alliance was initially just an alliance, but after years of development, its structure has changed. The alliance cultivates its own power within, and most core members grew up in the Wuxing Alliance from a young age.

Others who want to join have to go through more rigorous tests.

Qin Sang remained noncommittal, "If you enjoy so many benefits, you must also bear the responsibilities, right"

"Indeed, our Five Elements Alliance has branches spread across the Eight Heavenly States. As a result, we have countless guests seeking our refining services. Some commissions can only be completed by master refiners. We understand that you all prioritize cultivation, but every so often, you must complete a task for the alliance," Elder Qi stated without explicitly revealing what it truly meant to join the Five Elements Alliance.

Both of them understood that there were bigger constraints at play, and this was something Qin Sang couldn't tolerate. At least in the short term, he wouldn't consider joining any faction. Being a guest elder was enough for him.

There's plenty of time ahead. Take it slow, and let things unfold naturally. Even Elder Qi doesn't seem eager to pull you in. He simply nods and says, "Friend Qin, would you be willing to show me your skills in the art of refining This way, I can report back to those above."

"How do you prove it" Qin Sang asked.

"Whatever method works, Qi Mo just needs to confirm the initial direction. The alliance will have a plan of action afterward," Elder Qi said.

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

Qin Sang pondered for a moment, her heart stirring slightly.

The silent room suddenly brightened with a flash of sword light. The blade gleamed like autumn frost, spanning the gap between the two figures. It was indeed the Gray Oriole Sword!

"This sword was forged imitating Qin某's natal spirit sword, and is connected to his mind. I hope Elder Qi will judge it."

Qin Sang presented the sword.

The Grey Nightingale Sword buzzed with a resonant hum, as if responding to its master's words, or perhaps lamenting the judgment cast upon it. The sound of the sword's cry was filled with pride and an abundance of spirit.

Here is the translation of " " :There are no words within the provided string. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"What a fine sword!"

Qi Chang, the leader, gave a satisfied nod. With his years of experience, he almost immediately confirmed that this sword was undoubtedly crafted by Qin Sang. It differed significantly from other spirit treasures he had seen.

>

“With this spirit sword, it is enough to prove Daoist Qin's abilities,” Elder Qi stood up and solemnly returned the Graying Bird Sword to Qin Sang, “Please wait a moment, Daoist Qin. I will report this to the alliance immediately.”

"Farewell, Daoist friend," Qin Sang bid farewell to Elder Qi and began to plan his next course of action.

Proactive planning, Qin Sang must consider his future path, perhaps relying on the Taoist altar to continue his exploration of the Great Dao of Slaughter.

Once your identity is exposed, there will be no chance to gather spiritual objects on the run, so you must do as much as possible now.

It's a pity that the spiritual materials needed for the Taoist altar are too numerous, and it would be difficult to gather them even with the help of the Five Elements Alliance. In the future, I guess I'll still have to rely on the sword slaves' assistance.

Just as he was deep in thought, Elder Qi returned.

While waiting for the response from the Five Elements Alliance, Qin Sang and Elder Qi chatted leisurely.

Knowing too little about the vast world, Qin Sang was worried about being seen through. He mainly discussed the way of refining tools with Elder Qi.

Here is the translation:

Baiyijing is the center of the Great Thousand Human Race, where all sorts of Daoist traditions are passed down. Even though Elder Qi may not have seen it with his own eyes, his knowledge surpasses Qin Sang's by far.

After a good conversation, Qin Sang could only sigh in admiration. The path of refining artifacts in the vast world was indeed profound and intricate. There were many refining techniques he had never heard of before, extremely mysterious.

Here's the translation of your provided text:

“Have I heard right that there's a secret art called 'Qi Dao' where souls can be sent into objects, transforming them into spirit races and granting them new life” Qin Sang asked casually.

"Legend has it that there is such a secret art, but all those who claim to know this art are frauds. They take advantage of people who are desperate and willing to try anything, their actions are despicable," Elder Qi said with disdain. "Even if such heaven-defying magical arts truly exist in the world, only those extraordinary masters would be capable of wielding them."

I wonder if the Five Elements Alliance has such powerful figures.

Qin Sang didn't ask that question, even though he knew there were powerful experts who could answer it. He had no ability to ask them for help, and Yun You Jian involved too much; he couldn't afford to expose himself.

This is a good example of how to use HTML tags.

Next, Qin Sang learned from Elder Qi that besides refining weapons for guests, the Wuxing Alliance also allowed members to contribute in other ways. The greater the contribution, the more benefits one would receive. For example, proactively offering treasures was a valuable contribution.

It's no secret; Elder Qi directly gave Qin Sang a jade slip.

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

When divine consciousness entered the jade tablet, one name after another made my eyes dazzle and blood boil.

There are too many rare treasures Qin Sang has never heard of, some only exist in legends, or just a few strokes left in ancient books, disappearing from then on. Even the Five Elements League is uncertain whether they exist.

The Ten Divine Trees stood majestically, and Qin Sang made a peculiar discovery.

Of the Ten Divine Trees, the Endless Blood Sangwood ranked first, surpassing even the Soul-Nurturing Tree.

"It's rumored that the Blood Fiend Divine Light of the Wuxiang Blood Sang can defile magical artifacts, making them ineffective against spirit treasures. Its power would be greatly diminished, so why is it so valuable" Qin Sang pointed at the Wuxiang Blood Sang and asked.

When asked this question, Elder Qi became even more certain that Qin Sang did not come from a powerful force in the refining world. “Friend Daoist may not know, it is rumored that the Blood-Stained Divine Light Sutra is refined through a special secret technique. It can obscure the spirituality of spirit treasures, and with daily refinement, it makes them easier to subdue. It also has some effect on the spirit of the artifact. It can be said to be the most convenient secret technique for taming the spirit of an artifact in the world.”orphan brought back by Master Grandmaster, but his becoming an orphan was also connected to Master Grandmaster... I haven't told you these secrets before."The disciples were shocked.“Before leaving, M...
