The demon, forced to speak the truth, glared with hatred in his eyes, gritting his teeth.

The crimson snake revealed a humanized sneer, saying to the Immortal Official, "If you are so easy to kill, it wouldn't have been necessary for me to lie in wait for so long, relying on others."

"Since you've already failed, what are you still doing here" The Krait's eyes were cold, his voice flat.

The wretched demon's expression became difficult to look at. "This king has also been running around for Daoist friends, which is why I am in this predicament. Not only have I lost the Dharma platform and the wolf general, if it weren't for this king's supernatural powers to deceive the heavens and cross the sea, Daoist friends wouldn't even see this king today... Can Daoist friends really be so heartless"

The scarlet king sneered, neither confirming nor denying. His body gradually turned translucent, as if about to vanish right then and there.

"The dejected demon hastily said, 'Although my cultivation has been greatly damaged, it wouldn't be difficult to restore it. However, the Fa altar has been taken away, so I can only beg for your transmission of teachings. As long as you can protect me, in the future I am willing to serve you as king, listen to your orders at your feet, and obey your every command.'"

Upon hearing this, the Azure Serpent stopped dissipating and stared intently at the wretched demon for a long time. Its voice was flat as it said, "Six hundred li northwest of this mountain, there is a cave dwelling in a deep ravine."

Having said that, before the mischievous demon could respond, he transformed into a ball of water and plunged into the pond. No matter how the mischievous demon called out, there was no more sound.

The fox demon straightened up, her eyes rolling as she pondered the celestial being's intentions. Should she follow the snake demon's instructions obediently

After waiting for a while but receiving no orders, he left dejectedly.

> Having traversed mountains and valleys to reach the secluded ravine where the snake demon resided, he found its lair to be a cramped one. Nevertheless, the hapless demon took refuge within it and began cultivating diligently in the cave, awaiting further instructions.

At this time, Qin Sang had two treasures before him: the seventh-grade Bi Ling Bamboo and the Interpretation Tree.

Restoring true essence is estimated to require practicing on ‘talismans’. To obtain high-grade talismans, it's not something that can be achieved overnight. It's better to first focus on improving one's strength.

Qin Sang naturally thought of a secret technique, the "Postnatal Wooden Man Tablet" obtained from the strange-faced man.

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

The Grade 7 Azure Spirit Bamboo was obtained through a trade with the Qinghu Saint King. It was originally intended to be used as a medium for cultivating the "Post-Heaven Wooden Man Stele".

Transforming into a substitute to shield the true self from disaster and dying in its place, yet unexpectedly gained a better choice.

Re-refining his avatar was something Qin Sang wouldn't consider for now. Back then, he had the foundation of a Yuan Ying puppet refined over many years at Shangyuan Qingjing Palace. Only then could he refine a Yuan Ying-level avatar without breaking a sweat. Now that the Dao Tree had reverted to its original state as a spirit wood, its power had dissipated.

It's not easy to cultivate in this world, and refining one's physical body will definitely be a grand undertaking.

After weighing his options, Qin Sang put away the seventh-grade Bi Ling Bamboo and kept the Yandao Tree. Thoughts of the "Post-Heaven Wooden Man Stele" flowed through his mind.

This technique requires using a spiritwood as a medium to cultivate an incomparably powerful spiritwood body.

As for its power, the battle with the Wuxiang Immortal Gate already demonstrated it perfectly in front of him.

When the Weird-Faced Man first stood on the ground, he could absorb the spiritual energy of trees all around him. Forests and vegetation were his source of power, seemingly inexhaustible. Qin Sang was forced to set fire to the forest only to limit his strength.

But cultivating this art is no easy feat.

Such a tyrannical absorption of external forces, if the flesh is not strong enough, will instead place a great burden on the cultivator.

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

In severe cases, it can even be fatal.

To be on the safe side, Qin Sang, although he had already prepared the seventh-grade Bi Ling Bamboo as a medium, still wanted to wait until "Heavenly Demon Refining Form" entered the late stage of the fourth layer before practicing it. Unexpectedly, so many things happened in between.

The Monstrous Faced Man was not a body cultivator, but the cultivation technique he practiced was the top-tier wood attribute technique, *Múhuáng Cè*. This technique was the most suitable for him, allowing him to utilize the drawn wood essence through his cultivation. Even then, it was only after he broke through to the late Nascent Soul stage that he dared to cultivate this method.

Previously, Qin Sang would take out this secret art whenever he had free time to ponder it. He had already mastered it thoroughly.

>

The first step in cultivating this art is not outward but inward. You must first temper your flesh and meridian acupoints, and maintain a special state.

Then, on the chosen spirit wood designated as a medium, spirit apertures must be opened, corresponding one-to-one with the cultivator and perfectly matching with them. Only by integrating the spirit wood into oneself can one forge a spiritwood body.

After carefully pondering the techniques, Qin Sang finally understood why the strange-faced man repeatedly attacked his external avatars.

His cultivation of the superior wood-type martial art gave him a highly sensitive perception to the aura of spiritual trees, but this was only one reason.

That special state also has the function of helping cultivators find the most suitable medium. Once encountered, there will be a sense of connection in the dark.

The Freak at that time had already made up his mind to cultivate a body of spiritual wood, and began practicing the "Post-heaven Wooden Man Stele". When he encountered his outer avatar, he felt a connection, but he never expected that the connection was actually with the true form of his outer avatar.

In fact, at least in the world of storms, it's hard to find a medium more suitable than Dao Shu.

Otherwise, Qin Sang wouldn't hesitate between this magical art and his external avatar.

The Dao Tree is a naturally born spirit, its soul and essence can be used to rebirth without harming one's cultivation. Even an immature Dao Tree can be refined into a Yuan Ying talisman puppet or cultivated into an external avatar, containing countless mysteries within.

After cultivating one's body, the internal energy manifests outwardly, giving rise to meridians, acupoints, and becoming no different from ordinary people.

With the second primordial spirit dissipating, the Dao tree reverted to its spiritual wood state. Its acupoints and meridians vanished without a trace, as if all signs had disappeared entirely, another testament to its extraordinary nature.

Therefore, it is easier to open acupoints on a Yandao tree than on other spiritual trees, second only to those legendary naturally occurring divine objects with innate openings.

The medium has already arrived.

Qin Sang could refine his own acupoints and open up spiritual apertures for the Taoist tree at the same time.

He patiently cultivated here, allowing the Heavenly Eye Butterfly to slowly search for the snake demon's cave.

When Qin Sang was cultivating, the Bi Yao spent the time in anxiety.

As the saying goes, heaven's might is unpredictable. The more Qin Sang remained inactive, the more uneasy his heart became.

On a rock by a deep gorge, the Tianmu butterfly landed and waited silently for three days and three nights. It didn't find anything unusual in the surroundings, showing that the snake demon was very cautious in its actions.

Then, the Tianmu Butterfly flapped its wings and took flight, dancing gracefully among the mountains, leaving behind a trail of enchanting butterfly shadows. Unfortunately, she hid herself with divine powers, so no one could admire her beauty.

Among the towering mountains and ridges, every corner bears the mark of the Tianmu butterfly, gradually expanding its range of exploration.

After wandering for several months, flying over thousands of mountains and rivers, Tianmu Butterfly finally returned to Qin Sang's side.

"Nine Suspicious Houses"

Perceiving the thoughts transmitted by Tianmu Butterfly, Qin Sang pondered inwardly.

The Sky-Eye Butterfly finally found nine locations, all with obscure auras, suspected to be the lairs of snake demons.

>

Because it was unclear what methods the snake demon possessed, and to avoid startling it, Tianmu Die did not rashly enter the suspected mansion. Outside, she couldn't determine which one was the real one.

Even the nine suspected mansions might be fake.

The Serpent Demon has been ignoring the Fox Demon, not knowing when it would appear.

After some deliberation, Qin Sang decided not to wait any longer and take action directly.

Since talismans exist in this world, they are not exclusive to snake demons. There's no need to waste time here.

Even if we fail this time and let the other party escape, we can still investigate the methods of the demon cultivator who possesses the demon scroll and then look for other targets.

If a powerful demon cultivator were to appear, simply hide back at the Daoist Temple.

Upon considering this, Qin Sang and Tian Mu Die went out together and ventured deep into the wilderness for a while. After carefully investigating the area, they finally formulated a plan and flew towards a suspected mansion at an unhurried pace.

Along the way, he clutched the spirit stone in his hand, and his true essence gradually grew fuller.

This is a test.

This ruined dwelling, like the den of the Fiend Fox Demon, was hidden in a mountain stream at the bottom of a valley between two mountains.

Qin Sang concealed her breath and silently landed on the eastern mountain peak. After observing for a while, she transmitted a thought to Tianmu Die.

The butterfly of Tianshan wings and flies towards the distance.

In fact, he also has two assistants: the Fire Jade Centipede and Su Zinan's demonic soul from the Three Corpse Death God Banner.

The avatar hadn't had time to release the magic banner before it was saved.

However, the Huoy Jade Centipede was not good at hiding or fighting, and the Demon Soul could not leave him too far. This time, only the Tianmu Butterfly could help him.

Watching the Sky-Eyed Butterfly fly far away, Qin Sang silently calculated the time in his heart. With a flip of his palm, the Sun God Tree fell into his palm, and his figure flashed and appeared above the mountain stream.

With his gaze fixed downward, Qin Sang's mind moved slightly, and instantly three divine birds took flight, like arrows shot from a bow, diving into the mountain ravine.

'Zi la...'

>

The divine bird, as soon as it descended, immediately stirred up a torrential mist. The entire mountain stream was instantly scorched dry by the flames of Nán míng lí huǒ.

Immediately following, a thunderous roar erupted from the depths of the mist. In an instant, crimson flames shot into the sky, causing the mountains on both sides to tremble. One of them seemed to have its foundation broken and began to tilt outwards.

Rocks flew everywhere, and the mountain demon was terrified.

This realm is truly filled with fairies, ghosts and monsters. Around the mountains, streaks of demonic energy and strange mists rise, filling the sky. I hastily flee in fear.

Upon arriving in this realm, the Sunbird first displayed its might, shattering the heavens with a thunderous roar!

The protective measures the snake demon had set up in the suspicious mansion could hardly withstand three solar divine birds.

The entrance to the cave and the rocks at the bottom of the mountain stream were instantly obliterated by the Southern Ming fire.

Had Qin Sang not harbored the intention of capturing him alive, and had he unleashed the full force of the Southern Ming's inferno without restraint, a single strike would have reduced the cave dwelling to rubble.

Inside the grotto.

A qilin, with the head of a human and the body of a snake, is coiled up, practicing its cultivation.

To everyone's surprise, the cave was surprisingly luxuriously furnished. Red candles burned, incense filled the air, and light gauze curtains hung delicately. Underneath the snake demon sat a couch covered in silk. An unsuspecting person might have thought it was the boudoir of a noblewoman.

The snake demon's appearance was also excellent, but her facial features were too delicate and feminine, making it difficult to discern her gender.

Heavenly disaster!

The entrance to the cave abode was immediately blasted open, and a torrent of intense fire power surged in, instantly incinerating the canopy and table.

Only then did the snake demon jolt awake, opening its eyes to a sight that made it unbelievable. Its own cave's stone gate had vanished, and a surging crimson flame was rolling in, radiating an apocalyptic aura. Fear filled its eyes.

In addition to this, in the other eight cave dwellings, there was a snake demon in each one, all looking exactly alike. The furnishings in each cave dwelling were also roughly the same.

At this moment, eight snake demons also opened their eyes one by one, and even their expressions were exactly the same as this snake demon.

The snake demon's face was pale with terror, and a multicolored aura suddenly erupted from her body. Her skin seemed to shimmer with an ethereal glow, resembling jade carvings.

But before another thought could form, a grunt echoed in his ears. He froze, his eyes wide with confusion.

The next moment, Qin Sang appeared beside the snake demon, reaching out to seize it. A strange, soft touch came over him.

Upon closer inspection, it was a layer of snake skin. Inside the snake skin, a force was stirring, eager to return to some place.

But Qin Sang was quicker, unleashing the solar bird to shatter the cave entrance and immediately using the Soul-Capturing Mantra to subdue his opponent.

Even with his divine awareness limited, he was not something the snake demon could withstand. In a mere instant, Qin Sang captured him.

Unable to find the true owner, Qin Sang remained expressionless. He immediately had an idea and used this power to seek out the serpent demon.

This power must have been differentiated from within the snake demon's body, and there is a subtle connection between them.

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

But before he could feel it more deeply, the connection vanished. The serpent demon had clearly sensed something was amiss and acted like a gecko shedding its tail.

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

"Well decided then!"

Qin Sang smiled faintly, in this instant he had already sensed the general direction. How could he allow the other party to escape

Looking up towards the southwest, Qin Sang's back flashed with thunder. Wings appeared behind him, and then with a deafening roar, Qin Sang vanished, leaving only a streak of lightning.

'Boom!'

Thunder echoed through the myriad mountains, countless fairies and demons looked on in terror.

A bolt of lightning split the sky.

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

Ahead of them, lightning flashed. The serpent demon suddenly turned its head back.

The next moment, the same scene replayed. Seven-colored demonic light flared brightly, and a burst of power vanished into thin air. All that remained was a snake skin lying limply on the ground.

Qin Sang didn't have time to stop it, but he already had a complete snake skin in his hand. He roughly understood the mystery of the snake demon's magical powers and roughly judged the direction where the seven-colored demonic glow returned.

“See how many times you can transform…”

Qin Sang casually unleashed a bolt of heavenly thunder, reducing the snake skin on the ground to ashes. His figure flashed, turning in another direction and breaking through the air.

Above the heavens, lightning flickered and turned, wherever it passed, fairies crawled, and ghosts fled.

Qin Sang quickly saw the next target, still transforming into a snakeskin before him.

To his surprise, he couldn't sense the demonic aura returning to its source this time. He quickly figured out the reason - the serpent demon must have sensed the danger and decisively dispersed the demonic aura instead of calling it back.

Qin Sang could see that these snake skins were not merely a ruse to deceive the eye. The demonic aura within them was derived from the deity's own essence, and with each dissipation, its power diminished.

That is indeed the case.

This is a unique magical ability possessed only by snake demons. Through the refinement of their own shed skins, they can split themselves into strands of demonic energy called "yao mang." Each strand of yao mang fuses with a shed skin, possessing the same aura and essence as the demon's true form.

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

Moreover, one can maintain this state of division during cultivation. Once danger arises, all demonic energy can be recalled to any snake shed, restoring the original form.

Even if demonic lights are unable to escape, they can decisively abandon themselves. As long as one demonic light can escape, the rest can be slowly restored later.

Now it has accumulated nine snake skins and set up nine suspicious dwellings, believing itself to be foolproof.

Qin Sang saw the profundity of this supernatural power and secretly thought that he might fail today. Just as he was about to casually choose a direction to pursue, his expression changed, revealing a smile, and he flew north.

After a short while, they arrived at a valley. A Heavenly-Eyed Butterfly flew up to greet them, and on the ground lay a burnt black python, no longer resembling its former colorful self.

Just now, Qin Sang investigated nine suspicious mansions. He discovered that one was particularly hidden; if it weren't for the Sky-Eye Butterfly possessing the Sky-Eye divine ability, it would be very easy to overlook it. He speculated that this place might have been arranged by the Snake Fairy, so he asked the Sky-Eye Butterfly to keep an eye on it in advance.

The serpent demon thought it had lured the enemy away and hurriedly recalled the remaining demonic energy to this place to escape. Just as its true form appeared, it was knocked unconscious by the Sky-Eyed Butterfly.

Rolling up the demon snake, Qin Sang darted away incessantly, flying towards the direction of Dao Court. Along the way, he didn't forget to take the disgraced monster with him.

Returning to the Daoist realm in one breath, Qin Sang sensed his own state and sighed inwardly. He needed to stabilize his essence quickly, otherwise, the limitations he would face would be too great.

(The End)
