Chapter 1504: Puppet Crystal
dy, as if he were locked by a real blade. His expression tightened slightly, and with a sweep of his arm backward, the white, ethereal cold air transformed into a long river, spreading out behind him....After successfully obtaining the avatar, he immediately retreated into the corpse puppet bag.
Under the cover of magic fire and sword formations, it is difficult for outsiders to detect his presence.
Qin Sang's figure flashed out, grabbing Yin Dianzhu's Nascent Soul with a grasp. His fingers tapped repeatedly, setting up layers of restrictions on him, sealing him away.
Lord Yin's expression shifted from ferocious to painful, then to despair, and finally settled into utter lifelessness.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
'Pfft!'
The infernal flames incinerated Lord Yin's corpse.
Several streaks of light and a tiny pouch flew out, landing in Qin Sang's palm.
>
It was precisely the several magical treasures that Lord Yin had used before that all changed hands.
Qin Sang urged his divine sense, roughly breaking open the restrictions of the mustard seed bag. He glanced over it and found a bottle of Fei Xue Dan. His heart moved, he took it out, and threw the rest into the Qianjun ring without looking at them closely.
Then, Qin Sang put Yin Dianzhu's Nascent Soul into the corpse puppet bag and waited to interrogate him more thoroughly when he had time.
The battle is over.
Qin Sang put away the demonic fire and glanced around.
He noticed some veiled glances.
These people were startled by the celestial tribulation and watched from nearby. They witnessed with their own eyes a hall master of Xuan Tian Palace fall, reduced to ashes, killed single-handedly by one person. They were all shocked beyond measure.
Qin Sang's gaze swept over their hiding place.
These people felt as if they were being pointed at by a sword from afar, their hearts and minds inexplicably stinging with pain. They were terrified and quickly scattered to escape.
However, there were no Demon-Subduing Elder or Heavenly Peng Great Sage among these people.
Qin Sang glanced at the depths of the holy land and turned back to return to Fuhua Mountain.
On the edge of the black mist.
The battle is nearing its end.
Qin Sang pressed down the escape light, lightly falling to the ground. At a glance, he saw several corpses lying on the ground, who were Shang Lu, Yue-surname cultivators and others.
Some others were still alive, surrounded by the Lord Jiang and his men. The situation had reversed; now they were on the defensive.
These people were misled by the Palace Master and Shang Lu and others, they were not the masterminds. Although there were cultivators from the Tianshan and Xuantian Sects, they were not as close to Shang Lu and others as the Yue surname cultivators.
Tong Lingyu is not here.
The Hall Master Jiang, Liuli and others surrounded them but did not attack.
>
These people witnessed Shang Lu and others die tragically. They thought they were sure to die today, but seeing Tong Lingyu didn't seem to want to settle the score completely, perhaps not really desperate until the last moment.
At this moment, their faces were full of tension, and they kept looking into the depths of the black mist, anxiously waiting for Tong Lingyu to come out and pronounce their fate.

However, they also understand.
Even if I miraculously survived this time, the days that follow will not be easy.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Noticing Qin Sang, the head of the Jiang Sect frowned slightly.
Just now, Qin Sang insisted on going after Yin Dianzhu alone. How could he be back so soon Wouldn't he have missed and let Yin Dianzhu escape
If Lord Yin returns to the Xuan Tian Palace ahead of schedule and spreads rumors, things will be troublesome.
The Hall Master was just about to go out and help Qin Sang.
“Lord Yin...”
"He is dead."
Qin Sang nodded, his words brief and to the point.
"Hiss..."
Upon hearing this, the crowd of nascent cultivators, including Jiang Dianshi, all changed color. Their eyes turned to Qin Sang, filled with deep respect and shock.
No wonder the Grand Elder isn't worried at all!
They were well aware of the strength of each hall master in their sect, and Hall Master Yin was among the best. To think that he had been killed by this person so quickly.
Only Liuli's expression remained unchanged. She had witnessed Qin Sang's true strength with her own eyes in the underground cave.
Just then, the black mist churned, and Tong Lingyu walked out with Luo Yun sealed within.
Upon seeing Qin Sang, Tong Lingyu wasn't surprised at all. She nodded at him and gently placed Luo Yun down. Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, she let out a soft sigh: “I believe everyone should still remember Senior Brother Luo.”
Luoyun is the irrefutable evidence.
Seeing Luo Yun, who had long since fallen, standing alive before them, and the terrifying restrictions on his body, these people couldn't help but believe in what Yin Changsheng had done. They all abandoned resistance one after another.
Without breaking a sweat, he stabilized the situation. He only needed to wait until he returned and eliminate the remaining poison of Yin Changsheng and his followers. This chaos created by Yin Changsheng was basically over.
>
Of course, the aftereffects will last for a long time, and may even change the layout of Xuan Tian Palace.
At least the results weren't bad.
Luoyun and Tong Lingyu are both still alive.
If Tong Lingyu successfully healed Luo Yun's injuries and broke through, the Xuantian Palace would still be a formidable force with two great cultivators sitting in its ranks.
The greatest loss is perhaps the Si Cheng Tengshe Yin, and the *Jie Yuan Shu* can serve as a consolation.
Qin Sang didn't care much about the internal affairs of Xuan Tian Palace. During this time, he learned from Jiang Dianzhu that there had been a strange phenomenon in the depths of the holy land just now.
A flash of white light.
Its existence wasn't long, but even across the chaotic darkness, it was visible. It must have been quite powerful, I wonder what those demons were doing inside.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The fragments of the slaying sword lay deep within the holy land.
Unfortunately, Sword Spirit hasn't responded since then, making it impossible to determine its exact location.
No matter what, Qin Sang had to go there in person.
Looking at Tong Lingyu, Qin Sang asked in confusion: "Although Hunmo and Tianpeng lead the demon invasion of the sacred land, Tong Daoist doesn't seem to be in a hurry"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Luo Yun's life and death are unknown.
The young spirit, Tong Lingyu, was severely injured and used pills to suppress the wounds. She lost her spiritual treasure and suffered a great loss of strength.
Now is precisely the weakest time for Xuan Tian Palace.
Tong Lingyu was calmly arranging for others to take care of the aftermath. The first thing she did was send people to collect treasures from the sacred land, lest they fall into the hands of outsiders.
The Palace Master suddenly became difficult, and none of these things had time to do.
Tong Lingyu smiled and explained: "There have been similar situations in the past, but Xuan Tian Gong has always laughed last. As long as treasures like Kan Shen Zhu continue to flow, Xuan Tian Gong's foundation will be as solid as a rock. It only takes a hundred or two hundred years to recover its vitality, so what is there to fear"
She spread open her palm, revealing the Ice Demon Crystal. "Moreover, since the sacred relic is intact, no one else can enter the sacred land. From now on, we decide when it opens."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"Aren't you afraid of what the demons and Tianpeng are doing deep within the sacred land"
Qin Sang asked in return.
Tong Lingyu turned around and gazed into the darkness of the depths of the sacred land. "Qin Daoist, you may not know this, but countless years ago, the ancestors of Xuan Tian Gong explored there countless times. The spatial turbulence in that place is extremely dangerous, and even the Hall Master and elders perished within, leaving no trace of their remains. However, over all these years, nothing has been found! Therefore, we deduce that the depths of the sacred land are most likely a void, completely destroyed. Could the wisdom of generations of Palace Masters and Grand Elders be inferior to that of demons and Tian Peng"
Qin Sang frowned.
The resonance of the Sword Spirit proves that the depths of the Sacred Land are not empty.
The judgments of the ancestors of Xuantian Palace throughout history have been wrong!
Speaking, Tong Lingyu lightly coughed a few times, her cheeks flushed a faint red. The power of the elixir was fading fast, and signs of her injuries flaring up reappeared.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
She spoke faster.
“The only thing there was an enigmatic stone stele, standing precariously in the turbulent void. It rested on a lotus platform at its base, bearing no inscription but emanating a peculiar ripple of energy.
>At first glance, anyone would think it was a treasure.
"Unfortunately, we've tried countless methods, even splitting it with axes and burning it with lightning, but to no avail. We couldn't damage it in the slightest or move it an inch. There was no reaction whatsoever."
"Yin Changsheng's plan spanned hundreds of years, using this stone tablet to fabricate a story, carefully laying out every step to lure the Demonic Old Man. It is said that he originally planned to set a trap around the stone tablet. When Daoist and Liuli appeared out of nowhere, he abandoned this plan."
Little did he know, the world is ever-changing, and who can predict everything perfectly It's impossible for things to unfold exactly according to one person's plan.
If Yin Changsheng had proceeded according to his original plan, he would have had a good chance of defeating the Demon-Slaying Elder and obtaining a treasure.
By a twist of fate, he happened to fix his gaze on Qin Sang, resulting in the old man being unable to control the demonic beast and letting it go free.
Although Yin Changsheng gave up his plan halfway, he had already leaked the general location of the holy land.
The old man who was a master of demons obtained Lingzhi Ruyi in the Golden Summit Hall. It turned out to have a great connection with the stone tablet. Following the guidance of Lingzhi Ruyi, he easily found the entrance to the holy land.
Here is the translation of your provided text:
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Reishi mushrooms and the stone tablet emanate similar waves.
The old man who was skilled in demonic arts couldn't believe it after obtaining this object. He had actually found something suspected to be related to the sacred land of Xuan Tian Palace from a Buddhist sect ruins.
To this end, he spent a long time researching and imitating the graceful aura of Lingzhi. He re-forged the Luokong Sword and carefully disguised it. He planned to auction it off at the Great Demon Conference to see how Xuan Tian Palace would react.
If Xuan Tian Palace would go to any lengths to buy the Sword of Sealed Void, it means Lingzhi Ruyi is indeed connected to the stone tablet.
It was precisely because Qin Sang interfered that Xuan Tian Palace missed the opportunity to secure the Void-Locking Sword.
The old devil was taken aback and had no desire to deal with Qin Sang. He had been busy with this matter for over ten years, and finally made up his mind to join forces with the demon saint in a desperate gamble.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Tong Lingyu pointed to the location where the white light appeared, her voice urgent: "That's exactly where the stone tablet is located. Just in case, Elder Jiang and Elder Mei will quietly go take a look. There is a healing holy medicine in the sacred land. After taking it, you can stabilize your injuries and recover eight or nine points of strength. I'll go collect the medicine right now. If anything unexpected happens, I'll rush over immediately. If you are interested in that place, you can also go with Elder Jiang and the others..."
This is the text that was inside the > tags. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
She made no attempt to conceal these matters, and even delighted in Qin Sang's rise to prominence. Only Qin Sang could counterbalance the influence of the Demonic Elder and Tianpeng Great Saint.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Having said that, Tong Lingyu called for Jiang Daren and Elder Mei.
After some discussion among several people.
Qin Sang swiftly darted to Liuli's side and whispered a few explanations, saying, "...I'm worried that I might accidentally encounter demons and be attacked by the Hunmo and Tianpeng. Immortal, could you lend me a hand You don't have to show yourself, just hide in the shadows and strike at the right moment. After the success, I will surely repay you!"
As he spoke, Qin Sang took out the Four-Forming Serpent Seal and quietly passed it to Liuli.
Now only Liuli and Tonglingyu can control this treasure, Qin Sang naturally trusts Liuli more.
One blow is all it takes.
Facing two attacks at the level of a fake Spirit Treasure, even a great cultivator couldn't withstand it.
Moreover, Liuli's Bing Po Divine Light is also a top-tier divine ability, able to help him restrain his opponents at critical moments.
Liuli, already knowing the reason, did not refuse. She took the Four Serpents of Teng Snake Seal and said, "Helping you is also helping my sect, no need to thank me."
She, however, wanted to clearly define the interests between the two of them, leaving no room for ambiguity.
Qin Sang looked at Liuli's eyes, full of seriousness. He vaguely guessed something and sighed inwardly, choosing not to argue with her.
Four people secretly left the black mist and quietly flew deep into the holy land.
After a moment, Qin Sang's expression shifted slightly. He suddenly halted his escape light and said, "The two Daoist friends may proceed first. This poor Dao has encountered an old acquaintance, I'll be back soon."
The Hall Master and Elder Mei exchanged glances, without asking further questions.
Qin Sang and Liuli changed direction, flying not far before landing on a mountain.
This mountain is lush and vibrant, with abundant flora and fauna. Exotic flowers bloom, and mystical vines climb the trees, creating a rare and beautiful sight even in this sacred place.
On a piece of bluestone on the mountaintop, stood an old man.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his breath coming in short gasps. He tilted his head slightly upward, his cloudy eyes peering through the darkness, never taking their gaze off the direction of the chasm. It seemed as if he hadn't even noticed the two people standing before him.
"Such celestial might, the one crossing tribulation is Yin Changsheng, isn't he The Xuan Tian Palace is in a period of great turmoil!"
He let out a sigh, then withdrew his gaze, looking at the pair of lovers with a hoarse smile. "What I did," he said, "turned out not bad after all. I've helped create a truly beautiful love story."
This man is actually Dongyang Bo!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Before the white of autumn evening was a pretense of death!
Liuli, facing the person who had wronged her so terribly, remained expressionless and seemed too indifferent to speak to him. She said nothing.
Qin Sang narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You dare to appear in front of me alone Are you here to die"
"Not bad!"
Dongyang Bo's face suddenly darkened, and he roared, "Qin Sang, kill me!"
Qin Sang frowned.
This person is truly determined to die.
Donghuang Bo is no longer a threat. His current actions will only make Qin Sang feel strange and ridiculous.
Seeing Qin Sang unmoved, Dong Yang Bo revealed a mocking smile and sneered: "What You're still afraid even though I've come to you myself If I don't kill you this life, how can you achieve enlightenment So indecisive, how have you survived until today!"
"hehe..."
Facing Dongyang Bo's provocation, Qin Sang remained unmoved, chuckled once, and glanced at the exit of the sacred land, "Playing innocent! Are you worried that I will punish Qiu Mu Bai later"
Dongyang Bo's expression stiffened.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Qin Sang's cultivation progressed at an astonishing rate, far exceeding his own expectations.
Luliu is also a proud son of heaven, especially with the backing of the first great sect in Beihai.
If they were determined to make things difficult for Qiu Mu Bai, even if he managed to survive, his life would be difficult from then on.
Qin Sang let out a cold snort. “You underestimate me too much!”
Dongyang Bo took a deep look at Qin Sang, and suddenly burst into laughter.
This text is inside a HTML paragraph tag.
"Haha..."
Burst into laughter.
Wild laughter.
His laughter grew louder and stronger, no longer feeble. It echoed through the heavens, regaining some of the youthful vigor of his mountain master ancestor, yet it also held a hint of sadness.
"Yes! I underestimated you. I've always underestimated you!"
Qin Sang looked at him coldly.
"Ahem..."
Dongyang Bo coughed violently, stopping his maniacal laughter. He raised his hand and pressed hard against his chest, taking a deep breath. “Good. With your temperament, if I die at your hands, Mu Bai would be even more dangerous.”
As he spoke, Dongyang Bo reached into his bosom and took out a crystal stone.
The crystal is shaped like a small ball, easily held in the palm of your hand. It is entirely milky white, without any impurities, extremely pure.
"Here you go!"
Donghuangbo threw the crystal stone at Qinsang.
Qin Sang's eyes flickered, his divine sense rapidly scanned the surroundings, and he carefully urged his true essence to transform into a large hand, catching the white ball in mid-air, preventing Dong Yang Bo from making any moves.
He has always been cautious, never letting his guard down even when he had the upper hand. How much more so should he be wary of Dongyang Bo, who is cunning and treacherous!
Seeing Qin Sang's action, Dong Yangbo sneered and said: "This thing I call it puppet crystal, it was obtained in the Purple Micro Palace. I have consulted ancient books and pondered for many years, analyzing that the puppet crystal should be a special treasure used to refine puppets. I originally planned to, after obtaining the Yuan Ying Fu puppet from Shangyuan Qingjing Palace, refine this thing into the puppet body..."
After a moment, Dong Yang Bo continued, "This object was originally black and white, perfectly matching yin and yang. It should be a set. I deliberately exposed the Yin Puppet Crystal in front of Gui General and had it bought by him to be refined into a puppet. Now that I hold the Yang Puppet Crystal, I can sense that puppet within a certain range. I originally intended to follow them secretly, seeking an opportunity for one last gamble, but unfortunately, my energy is declining too quickly to make that happen."
"Speaking of which, Dongyang Bo laughed again, “You’re also very interested in the schemes of the Demonic Old Man, aren’t you Today, I'll lend you a hand. I want to see how big a wave you can stir up in the cultivation world afterwards! If you die at the hands of those demons, it would be even better. In the Netherworld, I'll have a companion and won't be lonely.”
Before Qin Sang could reply, Dongyang Bo turned his head to look at Liuli and shot out a beam of light.
"The 玄牝玉鼎真經 also originates from the Purple Micro Palace. Later, I searched for it in the Purple Micro Palace, but unfortunately, I couldn't find its origins or a solution. This contains all the information about this sorcery, but the Purple Micro Palace no longer exists. All I can do is this…"
Liuli grasped the streamer, her eyes a complex mix of emotions.
> When a man is about to die, his words are good.
Of course, both she and Qin Sang understood that Dongyang Bo's actions might have been a form of repentance and atonement, but more importantly, it was for Qiu Mu Bai.
Qin Sang plunged his divine sense into the puppet crystal.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
Under Qingjun's tutelage, Qin Sang had a good understanding of the art of puppetry.
As Dongyang Bo said, Kuijing is indeed a treasure in the way of puppets, but Qin Sang had never seen anything like it before. At first glance, he couldn't see what it was all about.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
After some thought, Qin Sang grabbed the puppet crystal and, before putting it away, laid a layer of demonic fire restrictions on its surface to prevent the Ghost General from sensing him.
It's impossible for Dongyang Bo to have predicted Qin Sang's appearance at the Holy Land beforehand. The puppet crystal was prepared for his own use, and he wouldn't harm himself.
Since they were here for Qiu Mu Bai, it would be impossible to tamper with anything. Otherwise, if they failed to calculate Qin Sang's actions, wouldn't that backfire
However, out of caution, Qin Sang still took a precaution.
He is dead.
The glass glowed softly.
Qin Sang raised his eyes and saw Dong Yangbo standing on the bluestone with his hands behind his back, gazing north, like a sculpture.
He was lifeless.
East Yang Marquis Yuanqi was weakening, and he had already exploded the Vajra Jewel. He was extremely frail and only persisted until now with his last breath due to his unwavering determination in his heart.
> " Bury it. "
Qin Sang fell silent for a moment, then said.
Luli nodded, "Okay!"
Her feelings for Dongyang Bo were more complex than those she had for Qin Sang.
Back then, when her master was trapped in the Ziwei Palace, Liuli was only at the Qi Refining stage. Any little disturbance in the cultivation world could have killed her. If it weren't for the protection of Dongyang Marquis and Shaohua Mountain, creating that safe haven on Jingyue Peak for her, she would have definitely faced countless hardships. It's uncertain whether she would have eventually been qualified to rescue her master.
But it was also this person's scheming that trapped her with the curse of demonic markings, leaving her unable to find release.
Qin Sang looked around, flashed to a mountain wall, and swung his sword to dig open a tomb.
Lu Li moved Dongyang Bo's corpse inside, so that his face was facing north.
Qin Sang looked at the closed tomb, he never thought that one day, it would be his own hands to build a grave for Dongyang Bo.
A cold wind blew through the wildflowers in the mountains, releasing a refreshing fragrance.
After some thought, Qin Sang inscribed four characters on the nearby stone wall with his sword: "Master of One Sect."
After burying Dongyang Bo, Qin Sang and Liuli didn't hesitate and immediately flew deep into the sacred land.
They knew the location of the stele, much faster than the Demon-Confounding Elder before them.
Passed the last floating mountain.
Qin Sang looked back.
In the distance, floating mountains stood one after another, occasionally bursting with strange lights and brilliance. It was unclear whether someone was fighting or had unearthed some treasure.
Occasionally, a few stray beams of light would fly into the depths of the sacred land, with the same purpose as they—attracted by the white light, hoping to get lucky.
Of course, these people are at least in the Nascent Soul stage of cultivation, otherwise it would be impossible to survive and reach the stele.
"Whew!"
A sudden gust of wind hit.
As soon as they entered the depths of this area, they encountered a vortex that was several times more powerful than the one outside.
Qin Sang had been warned by the Sky-Eyed Butterfly and, taking Liuli with him, he dodged the turbulent flow effortlessly.
Here, he did not use the Raiden technique.
One is worried that Liuli can't keep up, and the other is that I don't know where the old man who mixes demons and others are now. The Thunder Escape Technique is too conspicuous.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
While traveling.
Qin Sang transmitted his voice, saying: "I hope that from now on the fairy will not mention the tribulation thunder to anyone."
To draw out Yin Changsheng's celestial tribulation with a thunderclap is a truly regrettable act.
When faced with life or death, Qin Sang didn't have time to think much.
At that time, Tong Lingyu and Luo Yun were both sealed in the blood pool. They didn't know what happened, but Liuli was aware of it.
However, at that time, Liuli was concentrating all her efforts on stabilizing her mind and resisting the erosion of the demonic seal. She probably didn't notice that the tribulation lightning came from the Heavenly Eye Butterfly.
Qin Sang did not deliberately explain, making excuses about magic treasures or supernatural powers.
That would only make things worse.
Liuli Bingxue, intelligent and perceptive, grasped Qin Sang's unspoken meaning and immediately swore a heart demon oath.
Speaking.
>
The two grew closer and closer.
Because the turbulence constantly changed, they were forced to change directions frequently. They flew for a long time but didn't see Elder Jiang and Elder Mei, so they could only meet at the stele.
Although the void turbulence is dangerous, with their two people's strength, they wouldn't be too afraid.
The place where the stone tablet stands can only be considered on the edge of the deepest part of the sacred land.
What lies further in is the most dangerous, even great cultivators tread carefully.
As Qin Sang darted about, his eyes never left their surroundings while a sliver of his mind delved into his dantian, repeatedly touching the fragments of the slaying sword, hoping to awaken its spirit and gain guidance.
>
Unfortunately, every call was met with silence. It seemed the Spirit Sword had expended all its energy and fallen into a deep slumber.
Qin Sang frowned secretly. It took three hundred years to enter once, and it was such a vast and dangerous area. If she searched inch by inch, when would she find anything
Thoughts raced in Qin Sang's mind, but his speed was not slow.
As Qin Sang finally neared the stele, he saw Jiang Dianzhu and Elder Mei standing ahead. However, they were frozen in place, staring straight ahead with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
They were right in front of them.
In the depths of darkness, white mist rises.
The white mist, as if endless, spread rapidly in all directions. Even when swallowed by the turbulence, it could be replenished quickly. From within the white mist, there emanated a strange kind of vibration.
Even without divine sense probing, Qin Sang could perceive that there was a mysterious space ahead. White mist permeated the air, either the space was expanding or the space itself was part of the holy land, gradually opening up.
