isasters, leaving the people suffering and the Sui Dynasty's five hundred years of foundation crumbling. Now that the edict has spread throughout the land, thirteen prefectures of the Sui Dynasty, exc...Three people sat on the ground dividing the spoils.

As the ancestor of Yuan Ying, Old Devil Pei's savings were considerable.

Treasures, spiritual materials, elixirs, spirit stones, and everything else you could possibly imagine.

Si Di and Jing Lin insisted that Qin Sang take the head, so Qin Sang didn't refuse. He first selected some things he urgently needed and filled his Qianjun Ring.

His net worth had always been unworthy of his status and cultivation. Now that he'd paid a Nascent Soul, he finally didn't look so impoverished.

However, even though he received several magic treasures, none of them were very satisfactory. The old demon Pei's natal magic treasure was a high-grade magic treasure, but its power would be greatly reduced if used by outsiders.

These are far inferior to the Twelve Demon Banners and Ebony Sword, so they can only be used temporarily for now. In the future, they can only be passed down to later generations.

Si Di and Jing Lin divided the remaining things equally, both quite satisfied.

When our military exploits are reported, we'll have a great harvest awaiting us!

Jing Lin said happily.

Slaying the nascent soul of Zhentian Yin is no small feat, and the two domains' alliance has always been generous with their resources.

Although Qin Sang killed the man, it wouldn't have been possible without their cooperation. The three decided to share the credit equally.

>

“Fellow Daoist, your performance this time was truly astounding. You scared both Chan Ling and Elder Tan so much that they retreated without a fight, showing no desire to engage at all. Zui Yuan knows your name, Fellow Daoist Ming Yue, and will definitely investigate you secretly, trying every means possible to target you.”

Jing Lin kindly reminded.

Qin Sang was not worried. It wasn't easy to ambush him.

Of course, caution is necessary. There are countless supernatural powers in the world, and one might encounter an opponent who can counter them.

Qin Sang said a word of thanks and turned to Si Di, "My fire banner and thunder techniques are all killing arts. The Zui Yuan might prepare a few protective methods in advance at most, which won't have much impact. However, you, Daoist Si, are different. You exposed your life-saving supernatural powers in front of Zen Ling and Lao Mo Tan. Be extremely careful in the future."

Qin Sang admired Si Di's decisiveness and courage very much.

Master Yuan Ying was willing to act as bait, putting himself in danger, which is very rare. His natal magic treasure, the "Shape Shifting Talisman," is undoubtedly a powerful tool for escape. However, if someone knows about it and prepares in advance, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Upon hearing this, Si Di and Jing Lin suddenly looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Qin Sang was puzzled.

This is a test.

Si Di smiled and explained briefly, "Dao You Ming Yue might not know that the conditions for using my Dao technique are extremely harsh. It's impossible to use it during a duel. First, it's in the Han Ling Great Formation, second, I had prepared here months ago to be able to use it. If the opponent focuses their energy on countering this Dao technique, I would be overjoyed! Plus, with the military merit earned this time, I can exchange for a kind of spiritual material that I have longed for. Once it is integrated into the Yue Jin Jian, this magic treasure will undergo a qualitative change. By then, it will be just right to take advantage of the situation and let them fall again..."

"My friend, you even calculated this layer. I admire you."

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

Qin Sang secretly sighed, these Nascent Soul old ghosts were indeed not easy to deal with, one pit after another.

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

Since Dao-you Si took command at the Sanshi Pass, Pei Tan and the two demons have never gained any advantage. It's not just about their cultivation!

Jing Lin nodded in agreement.

Si Di repeatedly expressed his shame and embarrassment.

The three of them joined forces to kill the enemy, their relationship was clearly much closer than before. Si Di and the other two were increasingly warm towards Qin Sang, and they were both quite tactful, not asking about the Magic Banner or the Art of Summoning Thunder.

Under Qin Sang's deliberate guidance, the conversation turned to the Youjing Tower and Miehun Cone.

"Before, the Xuan-shield Talisman couldn't completely block the Soul-destroying Cone, but it could buy us time to dodge calmly. Elder Pei doesn't know what kind of secret art he used, but the power of the Soul-destroying Cone has far surpassed before. This situation needs attention, I'll send a message to my friend from Zhen Dao immediately."

Jing Lin's voice was grave.

His wounds hadn't healed yet, and when he spoke of the Soul-Crushing Cones, his voice was filled with fear.

The Xuan Shield Talisman has failed, and the Two Realms Alliance must urgently find stronger protective measures.

>

Si Di continued, "This Soul-Destroying Cone shouldn't be something that can be cast at will. I noticed that Elder Pei was acting very strange in the final moments. The two of you were much closer than I was, so you must have seen it more clearly."

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

The two of them looked at Qin Sang.

Qin Sang nodded slightly, "Daoist Si is right. Before Pei Lao Mo cast the Soul Destruction Cone, his appearance instantly aged hundreds of years, as if most of his vitality had drained away."

After a moment of contemplation, Jing Lin's expression changed drastically. "Pei Lao Mo is sacrificing himself to the Youjing Tower! This thing is indeed an unadulterated evil artifact!"

“Given Yuan Ying Lao Gui's attachment to life, he shouldn't be willing to sacrifice himself unless absolutely necessary. However, we must remain highly vigilant. Even in his haste, Lao Mo Pei was able to injure both of you fellow cultivators. If someone were to act selflessly and scheme beforehand, who knows what kind of devastation they could cause.”

Si Di said in a deep voice.

The three of them had a private conversation for a whole hour.

Qin Sang inquired about various aspects of the Ziyuan, especially the Youjing Tower, from them in detail, but he did not find the information he wanted.

Farewell to Jing Lin and Si Di.

Qin Sang sat cross-legged, his thoughts restless.

His gut told him that the Spirit Crystal Tower and the ancient demon were likely related, but he had no evidence to prove it. He couldn't bring it up without concrete proof.

“After this major defeat, Sān Dié Guān should calm down for a while. I should go to Shí Qǔ Shan to see my senior sister. Whatever happens, I must first find a way out for myself...”

Qin Sang thought to herself.

The Demon Lord slaughtered nascent infants like grass, Qin Sang didn't mind doing his part to resist the Abyss of Sins, but he didn't want to risk his own life.

As for now, being so scared that you hide ten thousand eight hundred miles away, it's not necessary.

Zui Yuan's strength wasn't that strong, there might be something else going on.

After the great war, Sanzangguan returned to peace and they finally received news from Shiqu Mountain.

This time, Zui Yuan almost mobilized all its forces, making a huge splash.

The enemy's forces were amassed, suspected to be targeting Ziyuan and nearby major strongholds like Shiqu Mountain. Fortunately, the alliance of the two domains had been prepared in advance and invited the Demon King out of seclusion.

At the start, we were caught off guard. As reinforcements arrived, we gradually stopped Abyss's offensive and stabilized our position.

Most heartening of all was that despite being slightly weaker, Sān Dié Guān managed to counter-attack and defeat one Yuan Ying expert.

The name "Moonlit Demon King" quickly spread, becoming renowned.

Several days later.

Qin Sang found Jing Lin and told them that he was going to Shi Qu Mountain, because a small demon from the Thousand Mountain Bamboo Sea had brought something back.

Sidi had gotten his desired treasure and was beaming with confidence. "This Zen Ling is as timid as a mouse," he said, "He wouldn't dare make a move without thoroughly researching your magical powers. Rest assured, friend, once you bring them here, we will take good care of them."

Shi Qu Shan.

This was once a heavily fortified city of the Heavenly Alliance. All civilians had been evacuated, and the vast city was eerily deserted.

Shiqu Mountain was heavily guarded.

Qin Sang revealed his identity and was allowed into the city.

A cultivator at the Danjiedan stage led Qin Sang into a grand hall within the City Lord's Mansion and quickly went to report to True Daoist Zhang.

A venerable Taoist master personally took charge at Shíqǔ Mountain, while the mystical Lord of Wàngdōng City guarded it.

Others, such as Senior Sister Qingjun, are also in Shiqu Mountain. Dongyang Bo is in Wangdong City, assisting the Demon Lord Tongyou.
