ral stone paths in succession, Qin Sang didn't encounter anyone, nor did he see any footprints or markings left behind. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the end of another stone path. Just as Qin...Look at these threads.

Qin Sang's movements paused, his expression growing even more solemn.

> Next.

He tried to tease a strand of silk.

At first, there was nothing unusual.

Inside the cave dwelling, the ice casket radiated light, illuminating Qin Sang's solemn face.

After a while.

A sudden change occurred!

The ice box shuddered without warning, suddenly exploding with blinding white light. A wave of immense power erupted outwards, traveling along Qin Sang's strength and rebounding back towards him.

Qin Sang's hairs stood on end, and he felt a shiver run down his spine. His face changed slightly, and he quickly withdrew his hand.

The ice box is gradually returning to normal.

Qin Sang stared intently at the ice box, recalling the mysterious power he had felt just now. Then, he discovered that the seal on the ice box had changed.

The new sealing power is completely different from before.

All efforts were in vain.

"This...is Xuan Tian Gong's way of preventing others from stealing the treasure, cracking the seal, and leaving a double insurance"

Qin Sang vaguely had a hunch.

He remained silent for a moment, and tried again, but the result was still the same.

The power of the seal on the ice box was extremely strong, unprecedented for Qin Sang. Coupled with this change, it made cracking the seal even more difficult.

Even if one were to break the seal after great hardship, there is no guarantee that the power would not change in other ways.

The Xuan Tian Palace is really impressive.

Don't dream of opening the ice box in a short time.

"If Bai was here, he might have a way to deal with these strange things."

Qin Sang's brow was tightly furrowed.

With no other choice, Qin Sang was just about to put the ice box away when he suddenly remembered something.

"Is this the only backup Xuan Tian Palace has for such a precious treasure"

He hesitated for a moment.

Qin Sang's heart moved, a wisp of demon fire separated from the Fire Lotus seed between her brows and transformed into a fine fire net, adhering to the surface of the ice coffin.

The ice box becomes a fire box.

Qin Sang added a layer of demonic fire seal to the surface of the ice coffin, using the aura of demonic fire to isolate the ice coffin.

This is all he could do.

>It's best not to go to the Sunken Realm before opening the Ice Box.

Qin Sang thought to himself, put away the ice box, and then took out the Luofeng Jade and the Jinshen sword.

>

In Qin Sang's expectation, refining the Jin Shen Sword still needed two characteristic spirit objects. The Luofeng Jade met the requirements and its quality was higher than the kind of spirit object Qin Sang had expected.

If you can't wait, you can try to refine it.

However, this refinement aims to elevate the Golden Submerged Sword to the pinnacle of its grade. This presents a test for both the treasure and the refiner.

If the barrier-breaking fails, it may even damage the artifact itself.

Out of caution, he still decided to wait a little longer.

After that, Qin Sang remained stationed on Shanchen Island.

The outside world.

The battle between humans and demons was fierce.

The flames of war reached the sky and even spread to the Star Sand Islands.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Fresh blood dyed the sea red, countless corpses and limbs drifted along with the currents, everywhere. Especially the demon race was the most numerous.

In just a few months, the outcome was decided.

Even though the demon clan was defeated in the end, Bi Fang almost never showed up on the battlefield, confirming Qin Sang and the others' suspicions. Although cunning fox and other demons invited some reinforcements, they couldn't withstand the human race's attack, suffering heavy losses and retreating with their remnants back to the demon realm.

The monsters that dwelled between the Star Sand Islands and the Moonlit Realm have been mostly purged, trade routes have reopened, and they are becoming increasingly prosperous.

Qin Sang also made friends with several fellow cultivators from the Star Sand Islands.

After the war ended.

Qin Sang attended a celebration banquet held by Feng Shangshi on Fengyang Mountain.

He personally experienced several battles.

Those demon kings, seeing the unfavorable situation, fled as fast as they could.

Here is the translation:

Although the demon king couldn't be killed, quite a few treasures were found in his cave and added to the Qianjun ring. When the opportunity arises, participate in more trading fairs and auctions to collect the necessary spiritual objects, and then the Jinshen Sword can be upgraded.

One month later.

Two beams of light flew out from Fengyang Mountain, heading south.

It is Qin Sang and Feng Shangshi.

"Thanks for accompanying me on this trip, Feng Dao friend," Qin Sang said with gratitude.

>

Feng Shangshi smiled and said, “I haven't spoken yet, so I made you wait for a long time. Thanks to your righteous help, we were able to drive away the cunning fox and other demons so quickly. Otherwise, if we had dragged it on, they might have summoned powerful demon saints from their clan, and there would be more variables. Besides, Feng is going to visit an old friend in the southern border, just passing by Baihuagou.”

"I heard that Huahua Valley is very low-key, and outsiders can't even find the entrance to Huahua Valley"

Qin Sang did not place his hopes on Feng Shangshi alone.

I've been keeping an ear to the ground about Baohua Valley whenever I have time.

The reputation of Hundred Flowers Valley is very widespread, and even cultivators in the Star Sand Archipelago know about it.

Actually, being the first in raising insects isn't that impressive because unique talents become widely known.

In the cultivation world, cultivators who specialize in controlling insects are rare.

Spirit insects are slow to cultivate, and most cultivators are unwilling to spend their energy on raising them. Most people who keep spirit insects come across a particularly unique one by chance and keep it as a tool.

Qin Sang stole the Wuzhu clan's secret art of using natal insects, and used his own blood to cultivate Tianmu butterflies. His cultivation speed was faster than that of other spirit insects, but compared to cultivators, it was still slow.

How to break through in the future is even more clueless.

Of course, the shamanic inheritance is definitely not limited to this. Qin Sang's cultivation level was insufficient at that time and he couldn't access it.

It's a pity, there's no going back.

Feng Shangshi hummed, "According to my esteemed friend, it seems that the ancestral teachings of Hundred Flowers Valley dictate that they will never participate in disputes among cultivators unless provoked. They prefer to keep to themselves, tending flowers and playing with insects. Many have heard of Hundred Flowers Valley being near Heishui Bay, but no one can find its entrance."

The Mu Dao friend he spoke of is the current head of Baihuagü.

Heishui Bay is located near the middle of Xianyue Island, on the eastern coast.

On the land bordering Heishuiwan, there is a vast black swamp that almost runs through the entire Xinyue Island, dividing it in two. The island is commonly known as the South and North Territories, separated by the black swamp.

The Black Swamp emanates a foul stench and is extremely perilous inside. Most places are unsuitable for cultivation.

Here, cultivating immortal sects are rare.

The entrance to Hundred Flowers Valley was built here, facing little pressure.

Such a sect is truly rare.

Qin Sang sighed with emotion.

Withdrawing from the world and avoiding disputes, is just a beautiful vision in the world of cultivation.

Feng Shangshi pondered for a moment and said, “When I chatted with Mu Daoyou casually, I heard a few words. The ancestor of Baichetan seemed to be from the boundless sea. He came alone, traveling thousands of miles to open a sect in the realm of Xianyue. He was isolated and helpless. Perhaps this is the reason why he doesn't want to get involved in the disputes between local cultivators. Fortunately, Baichetan has always been strong, and Hei Zheze as a buffer has allowed it to maintain its aloof position.”

After a moment's pause, Feng Shangshi continued, "The fame of Baihua Valley stems from their emphasis on insect manipulation as the foundation of their lineage. There are indeed other factions proficient in this art, practicing it as a supplementary skill, such as Xing Shan and Qian Xianmeng. However, Feng doesn't have much connection with them, so I can't offer any introductions to my friend."

Qin Sang said his thanks.

The forces mentioned by Fengshangshi, he has inquired about them all. "Many thanks to the Daoist friend for reminding me, the poor Dao is just thinking this way. After leaving Baohua Valley, I will visit them one by one."

The Wind Master nodded, and went on to speak about some things related to Hundred Flowers Valley. Most of them were rumors and anecdotes, not involving any real secrets.
