Chapter 1196: Walking Alone

e!And he didn't want to have too much interaction with ordinary people from Qianhu Village."In a few days, when my injuries are healed, I'll be back. Here, this is for you."Saying that, Qin Sang took...After talking for a while again, the Serpent King added some more conditions, but they were all rejected by Qin Sang.

Qin Sang was not short of magic treasures. The blackwood sword was about to transform into a top-grade magic treasure, and the magic banner's power was no less inferior, enough to ensure that he wouldn't have to go out of his way for magic treasures during the Nascent Soul period.

Seeing that Qin Sang truly didn't want to go, and wasn't bargaining, the Snake King could only depart with regret.

The Snake King has left.

Qin Sang thought to himself that he couldn't wait for the Wumu sword forever. He should set off as soon as possible and let it slowly refine itself on the way. When he arrived at Zui Yuan, he should try to keep a low profile.

Otherwise, if the Snake King and his followers cause trouble in the Abyss of Crime, leading to a state of emergency, he too would suffer an undeserved calamity.

Thinking about this, Qin Sang quickly arranged all kinds of affairs.

He found Jinglin and the other, proposing to leave for a while. Although they were reluctant, they knew there was no reason to stop Qin Sang.

Fortunately, Zui Yuan's momentum hasn't become as ferocious recently, and Zen Ling has even become a turtle hiding its head.

“My master, I have successfully refined the Azure Phoenix Thunder Force, greatly improving my thunder escape technique. I even feel the bottleneck of the late stage loosening. You are venturing into the Dragon’s Den alone. What if something happens Wouldn't you be overwhelmed I am willing to serve you wholeheartedly and follow your orders, no matter the cost.”

Before leaving, Fat Chicken came to Qin Sang's door and shamelessly begged him to take it with him.

Qin Sang glanced at the fat chicken, "Aren't you afraid that if you are chased by the Crime Abyss Yuan Ying, I will throw you out as bait"

The fat hen stiffened and said with difficulty, "As long as I can secure a path to survival for my master, I am willing to die!"

I don't know if he even believes what he's saying.

Qin Sang sneered, but still took the fat chicken with him, saying that it might be useful.

Less than half a month after the departure of the Snake King, Qin Sang set off.

According to his planned route, he couldn't cross enemy lines and travel through the grasslands into Zui Yuan. It was best to detour through the Great Desert, which would take longer but be safer.

He first went west, crossing Shiqu Mountain, and arrived near Hukou Pass where the demon clan was stationed.

Zui Yuan's defenses here were much slacker.

Qin Sang found an empty spot and quietly left the Heavenly Step Plateau. The surroundings became increasingly desolate as he continued forward in the desert for a distance, then he saw endless stretches of vast, golden sands.

The desert is unbearably hot, compared to the cold highlands, it's like two different worlds.

Between towering sand dunes, a scorching wind howled, gradually taking shape as a sandstorm.

At this moment, a figure quietly appeared at the top of a hill, frowning and gazing ahead. The sky was a dull yellow, and a sandstorm was approaching!

He seemed to have an invisible shield around him, blocking all the wind and sand. He didn't even notice the terrifying sandstorm.

This man was Qin Sang. He observed the road ahead and muttered to himself, “There are fewer patrols now. If we walk a little further, we should be able to travel with confidence and at full speed.”

With his cultivation level, he wouldn't have to worry about anything unless he encountered a criminal primordial infant.

Considering that this place was already occupied by the Abyss, Qin Sang kept a low profile along the way to avoid trouble as much as possible, so his speed naturally couldn't pick up.

'Boom!'

Suddenly, the sky darkened.

A sandstorm swept in.

Qin Sang narrowed his eyes, his figure flickering and disappearing into thin air. He effortlessly glided through the sandstorm, continuing to dash forward. Suddenly, a splash of green appeared in his vision.

"Another oasis, the spiritual energy seems quite dense..."

Qin Sang thought for a moment, then urged the Lièxī technique, flying towards the oasis.

In a short while, Qin Sang stood atop a green hill in the center of the oasis, gazing at the ruins spread out around him and letting out a barely audible sigh.

This place was clearly once the location of a cultivator's sect.

Now, the mountain gate has been destroyed by Zui Yuan. The disciples within the sect are unknown whether they are dead or alive, wandering to who knows where.

Fortunately, the Abyss wasn't insane enough to slaughter ordinary people. The commoners in the oasis could still live, but without the protection of cultivators, survival in the desert became much more difficult.

Along the way, similar scenes appear frequently. Cultivators in the desert encountered the butcher's knife of Ziyuan very early on.

What exactly is Zui Yuan trying to do And what about Ye Lao Mo, could it be that they only aim to become the co-ruler of Beichen Realm

Qin Sang shook his head and continued walking.

The vast desert seems to have no end.

This trip can also be considered a trial.

Qin Sang prioritized speed, but he would also pause to admire the unique features of the desert. He even ventured deep into the desert on purpose to experience the desert cultivation world firsthand and understand the influence of Ziyuan there. He wanted to learn as much as possible about Ziyuan.

Along this journey, he witnessed the cultivation sects of the desert, and saw many unique Taoist arts practiced by desert cultivators. There was a top-tier sect with a Nascent Soul sitting in charge, with a long history, no less prestigious than the small Han domain's major sect.

Unfortunately, this sect was originally located in an oasis near the Abyss of Sin. Due to the pressure of circumstances, they were forced to abandon their mountain gate and relocate deep into the desert for refuge. Fortunately, the Northern Star Desert is vast enough that the claws of the Abyss of Sin could not reach every corner.

But what surprised Qin Sang was that Zui Yuan actually had the ability to fight on two fronts!

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

Qin Sang happened to meet the Supreme Patriarch of Taishangzong during his travels here.

The two met by chance, without probing each other's secrets. They sat and discussed matters, each gaining something from the exchange. Then Qin Sang drifted away, as if on a cloud.

The desert wasn't short of hidden realms, but Qin Sang had no mind to seek treasure. After wandering for nearly two months, he finally diagonally crossed the Beichen Desert and entered the Abyss of Sin.

Even during wartime, the Zuiyuan's internal affairs remained highly vigilant.

Cultivators staying behind in the sect often patrol.

Qin Sang's speed was forced to slow down again, just enough to understand the features of Zui Yuan, enriching his senior sister's feng shui map, and slowly approaching the direction of Jin Hun Mountain.

This is not the kind of demon realm that the Two Realms Alliance propaganda portrays, filled with blood and mountains of corpses.

At the heart of evil, mortals live peacefully and contentedly on Earth.

Since cultivation sects were mainly concentrated on both sides of Tianhen, Zuiyuan's strategy towards mortals differed from Xiao Han Domain. Instead of dispatching disciples with no hope of cultivating immortality to govern mortals, he sent his low-ranking disciples who lacked the potential for cultivation to become rulers, managing mortals and selecting those with talent.

Yet for some reason, war still abounds in the mortal realm.

Qin Sang didn't investigate further, after getting a general idea of the situation, he quickened his pace.

Near the eastern bank of Tiān Hén lies Jìn Héng Mountain's gate.

After dodging patrol teams time and time again, Qin Sang finally saw the legendary Skymark!

Here's the translation:

The view before my eyes was truly awe-inspiring, no wonder it's called "Heaven's Mark"!

The earth here cracks open, a thousand miles wide and bottomless, reaching straight down to the Nine Netherworlds!

It makes one wonder if, someday, the two landmasses will be completely severed.

Endless white mist rose from the depths of the Abyss, even with cultivators pouring spiritual power into their eyes, it was difficult to see across. Among the swirling mists floated fragments of forbidden enchantments, shimmering with strange and wondrous lights, utterly enigmatic.

Generally, cultivators dare not directly cross the Tianhen from the air.

In the narrowest parts of Tianhen, various forces would establish teleportation arrays. Their transmission distance was far inferior to ancient teleportation arrays, which happened to be effective here.

“What a nice scar!”

Qin Sang sighed with admiration.

There will still be a chapter today, but it will be later.ands clawed their way out of the ground, emerging as corpses.Hehehe!These corpses spoke in unintelligible sounds, suddenly raising their heads, their pitch-black ghostly eyes fixed on Qin Sang. This e...
