Chapter 188: Subsequent Cultivation Techniques

y not intending to continue searching.Upon seeing Qin Sang, this man merely nodded with disinterest. As Qin Sang brushed past him, he hesitated for a moment and spoke, "Qin Daoist, for the sake of Yun...Qin Sang felt Yue Rou's emotions gradually return to calm. He nodded to Yue Xing and said, "Don't worry, your sister touched the sword mark directly with her divine sense and was struck by the remaining killing intent in the mark, causing her mind to be shaken for a while. Fortunately, she wasn't injured. She'll be fine after a good sleep."

Upon hearing Qin Sang's words, Le Xing reluctantly suppressed the worry in her heart, hugging the still trembling Le Rou tightly, and gazing at the sword mark with a hint of astonishment.

Whose sword marks are so dangerous, even the divine consciousness can't touch them

She guarded her consciousness within the primordial spirit space, not daring to reveal even a shred.

Qin Sang turned and looked up. As expected, there was a barely perceptible crack in the dome of the cave dwelling.

One can imagine someone wielding a sword above the cave, perhaps even standing on the water's surface. With a light, graceful movement, they strike down into the water, their sword qi piercing through the lake, bypassing both illusionary formations and restrictions. The sword pierces the cave, leaving a precise sword mark on the stone bed.

It is estimated that Cang Li, the real person at that time, was not in his cave dwelling and luckily wasn't split in half by a sword. But ultimately he was dragged out and couldn't escape his fate.

Now Qin Sang can be sure that the one who left this sword mark must be Senior Qingzhu!

Only those who have cultivated can feel how special the sword qi lingering on the sword marks is. The killing intent in the sword qi comes from the same source as the killing talisman!

In Shaohua Mountain, according to Qin Sang's knowledge, only Senior Qingzhu had truly cultivated without being eroded by killing intent and losing their mind. They successfully cultivated and broke through the Golden Core stage.

This is a sword mark left by the Golden Core Stage expert!

If it weren't for the fact that the sword mark had existed for a very long time, and the sword qi and killing intent within it had already dissipated by more than nine out of ten, with Yue Rou's cultivation level, the moment her divine sense touched the sword mark, she would be completely shattered by the killing intent, her soul destroyed, and her primordial spirit withered away.

But what surprised and astonished Qin Sang was not these things, but the killing intent in this sword slash was too pure, even purer and more extreme than the fifth killing talisman!

Qin Sang originally thought that Senior Qingzhu had changed his cultivation technique. Now it seems he has continued on the path of killing, could he have found something beyond the fifth layer

Why is there no storage in Taosha Peak

Qin Sang sat cross-legged in front of the stone bed, his divine sense reaching out to touch the sword mark.

He was a Qi Condensation stage cultivator, he wouldn't be unable to withstand a sword mark from hundreds of years ago, and besides, he cultivated as well, there was no need to fear.

Qin Sang was like dead wood, motionless.

Yue Xing did not dare to disturb Qin Sang, worried about Yue Rou's condition and fearing that the cave they had found with so much difficulty might be ruined by this sword mark. He didn't know if it would still be usable.

"Hmm..."

After a while, Le Rou suddenly moved and woke up slowly. Le Xing was overjoyed and asked in a hurried whisper, "How do you feel now Are you hurt anywhere"

“My head hurts…”

Yurou covered her head, her eyes were a bit dazed, she hadn't figured out the situation yet. When she saw the stone bed, a strong sense of fear suddenly flashed in her eyes. She shrank into Yuexing's arms and trembled, "That crack...it's so scary inside..."

"What did you see" Leo asked curiously.

“I... seem to have fallen into a sea of corpses and blood...”

"Whew..."

After several hours, Qin Sang opened his eyes. After careful consideration, he confirmed his previous guess: Senior Qingzhu had reached a higher level in the Way of Slaughter. Even if he hadn't found the secrets beyond the fifth layer, he must have obtained a new secret technique of the killing way.

After a moment of contemplation, Qin Sang summoned his ebony sword and imagined the killing talisman being wielded to unleash a sword qi. It landed precisely on the sword mark.

Only a faint gleam of sword light could be seen, the sword energy lingering on the sword mark was neutralized.

“I have wiped away the sword energy remaining on my blade wounds, you need not fear anymore.”

Qin Sang retracted the ebony sword and, before the Le sisters could show their delight, said in a low voice, "Shouldn't the two Taoist friends fulfill their promise now"

Le Xing pressed down his excitement, "We'll follow the senior back to Yuefang City right now and hand over the Spirit Spring treasures."

The prohibition was broken, but the naturally formed illusion array remained intact. As long as the sisters of the Yue family were careful enough, they needn't worry about being robbed of their cave abode.

The three hurried back to the Wuyuefang Market. After confirming with the Le sisters, they obtained the tree root from Granny Jing. As a witness, Granny Jing only required Qin Sang and the Le sisters to purchase a carved item from her shop as payment.

Qin Sang picked up a peach wood sword and hastily bid farewell to Elder Jing, heading straight for Tianhen Tower.

Having reviewed the case files at Tiān Hén Lóu, he returned to Shào Huá Mountain and consulted with several familiar fellow disciples, including Wēn shīxiong. He then entered Bǎo Tǎ Fēng and carefully reviewed all available information.

After returning to the cave, Qin Sang recalled the information he had gathered over the past few days and fell into deep thought.

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

Qin Sang was basically certain that Qing Zhu's predecessor was the Sword Demon.

From the time Qingzhu senior betrayed Shaohua Mountain to when Jianmo killed Shangyuan Shenmen, there was actually a gap of more than ten years. The so-called case at that time was also revealed after Jianmo killed Shangyuan Shenmen, when corpses were found one after another, all confirmed to have come from the Xianfu, and only then did the truth come to light to the world.

Because of the time constraints, some people speculated that Jian Mo was Qing Zhu's senior, but this has never been confirmed.

During this period, it should be Senior Qingzhu who was secretly investigating and killing the enemies one by one.

Several fellow disciples, indeed, some have heard of this matter. However, the Shaohua Mountain has erased any traces of Senior Qingzhu, and both major sects seem to be deliberately suppressing it. So much time has passed that no one is willing to waste time investigating it further outside. It's only regarded as a legend and gossip.

After killing the Yuan Shen Men on Jian Mo's sword, he disappeared completely. Some say he was surrounded and killed by the Yuan Shen Men, while others say Jian Mo escaped unharmed and left the Xiaohan domain.

There are many rumors, all just guesses.

There is one piece of news about Senior Qingzhu. It is said that a Shaohua Mountain disciple encountered Senior Qingzhu on the Ancient Immortal Battlefield and was saved by him, but that's all. The disciple has long since passed away.

I wonder if Senior Qingzhu is still alive. If he didn't manage to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, his lifespan would have reached its limit.

Qin Sang was so concerned about Senior Qingzhu because he hoped she might have found the follow-up techniques. After all, only fragments of the cultivation method were kept on Baota Peak.

If possible, Qin Sang didn't want to revise other cultivation methods. This method was one of the most suitable for him. Not only could it help him improve his cultivation speed, but it would also give him an extra natal magic treasure after he broke through the Golden Core stage, giving him an advantage in battles.

Of course, the premise is that Qin Sang can form a golden elixir.

For him, talking about these things now is still too far off, there's no need to rush.

After entering the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, you can slowly investigate. Even if Senior Qingzhu fell in the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, you might be able to find his remains or relics.
