Chapter 1472: A Letter of Invitation
ostly claws, effortlessly shattering the wizened old man's protective true essence and plunging straight into his abdomen with a violent twist.The withered old man let out a shrill scream, horrified t...He has left the Ministry of Water Affairs.

Qin Sang never stopped, fleeing overseas, away from the demon realm. He found a deserted island and laid down the demon corpse.
Most of the essence of a frogfish is concentrated in its signature venomous scale. Qin Sang didn't have high expectations, and after dividing the demon corpse, he didn't find the so-called poison pill.

Just then, the fat silkworm suddenly chirped and jumped out, twisting its body to burrow under the frogfish's jawbone. It dragged out a small, transparent sac from inside.

“This… could this be a poison sac”
Qin Sang's heart moved, but he did not stop.
The fat silkworm slanted its eyes to peek at Qin Sang. Seeing his acquiescence, it let out a cheer of delight, spewing a rainbow halo that enveloped the venom sac and swallowed it whole before vanishing into the mute woman's body like a shooting star.
Qin Sang saw this in his eyes, secretly thinking that this guy was really picky. During his travels in the demon realm, he had encountered several poisonous beasts, even fat silkworm worms didn't bother to look at them, only the toxin sac of this transformed demon could move it.
The reason is estimated to be not only the high cultivation of the frog fish, but also the complete relationship between its natal supernatural powers and poison.
“After swallowing the venom sac, I don’t know if the fat silkworm can advance to its fourth transformation. In the demon realm, there aren’t many such venomous beasts. It is said that there is a poisonous cloud horse, which is a general under the nine-headed great sage. It has been cultivating in the Wan Yao Cave for many years and rarely shows up, but it is difficult to deal with.”

Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then took the remains of the frog and fish, removing their bones and skin to refine them into spiritual materials. He sorted them meticulously and stored them in his thousand-jin ring before setting off south.
This can be considered a return visit to familiar ground.
Qin Sang traveled through Fengyang Mountain and returned to Xianyue Realm, but he did not disturb Feng Shangshi and the others, traveling incognito.
From the Demon Realm to the Star Sand Archipelago, and then to the String Moon Realm, although I didn't find the fragments of the Killing Sword, I gained a lot of experience along the way. It wasn't all in vain.
He journeyed south leisurely, secretly approaching the major and minor sects of the Strings of the Moon Realm. After confirming that there were no fragments of the Killing Sword, he left without causing any commotion, nor did he waste too much time.
Qin Sang moved with incredible speed, arriving at the most dangerous place in the Xianyue Realm – the bottomless demon cave - in no time.
Back then, when Qin Sang sought out materials to forge the golden sunken sword, a Yuan Ying cultivator from the String Moon Realm once invited him to explore the bottomless Demon Cave in exchange for those materials. However, he declined the offer.
Qin Sang this time also did not intend to go deep into the bottomless magic cave.
He has improved tremendously, but time is short and he must return to Xuan Tian Palace before the opening of the Sacred Land.
The exit of the bottomless demonic abyss was surrounded by stones, sandwiched between three mountain peaks.
Three hills were entirely constructed of large stones, with not a trace of green to be seen. Even for dozens of miles around, the landscape was equally desolate and lifeless.
Qin Sang stood at the entrance of the demon cave, a sudden chill running through him. He stared for a moment, summoned his spirit sword to protect himself, and then jumped in.
Three days later, Qin Sangfu once again emerged from the demon cave.
This cave was truly as the legends described, deep and bottomless. Ancient restrictions were layered within. Qin Sang cautiously infiltrated its depths, venturing to a place where even he felt danger. The sword spirit remained unresponsive throughout. It's highly likely that there are no shards of the killing sword inside.
Bahuagou is located to the east of Wudi Demon Cave and to the other side of Heizhaze.
Qin Sang traversed the Black Swamp, and according to his memory, he found the mountain gate of Hundred Flowers Valley.
To everyone's surprise, the landscape had drastically changed. The miasma that once covered a vast area dissipated, and within it, the gigantic mountains and Hundred Flowers Valley vanished as well.
The scene before my eyes was no different from other parts of the Black Swamp.
>
Qin Sang's eyes flickered, seeing the strangeness, and awakened Tianmu Butterfly.
This place is indeed covered by a large formation that conceals the true terrain.
Could Hundred Flowers Valley be making such a grand gesture because something happened recently Or perhaps Master Mu didn't manage to escape the clutches of the Demon Elder like he had guessed
Qin Sang's brow furrowed, she emerged from the shadows and came to the edge of the illusion array, raising a beam of light.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Not long after.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light and shadow ahead, followed by the appearance of miasma that rolled to both sides. From within, a familiar voice came, “Master Mingyue, Mu has been waiting for you for a long time!”
"Valley Master, long time no see!"
Qin Sang's heart calmed slightly, and she smiled as she looked towards the depths of the miasma.
The Valley Master emerged from the miasma, personally greeting them.
Qin Sang saw that Mu Guzhu's face was slightly pale, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt that the aura around him was unstable, as if he was injured. He asked in surprise, "Mu Guzhu..."
"Master Mu's voice was bitter. 'Dao Chang, you guessed right. I was severely injured by the old demon back then and haven't fully recovered yet. My strength is greatly affected.'"
Saying that, the Valley Master invited Qin Sang into the formation.
As they talked, the two flew towards the Hundred Flowers Valley.
Qin Sang observed Mu Guzhu, and he didn't expect his injury to be so severe. His appearance couldn't conceal it.
The Valley Master detailed the events of that day, "Fortunately, Dao Chang's final move invoked the power of the Thousand Buddha Wall, holding back the Demon Old Man. This gave me a chance to catch my breath and shake off the attack from that ghost spirit. Sadly, the two Daoist friends, Qi and Wang, were unable to escape the Demon's grasp. Not only was their physical body destroyed, but their Nascent Soul was also captured. The old demon intended to search their souls. I couldn't bear to see them suffer such harm, so I risked my life to destroy the demon's soul-searching technique. In doing so, I self-destructed my Black Demon Ant and was severely injured by the old demon..."
After that, Mu Guzhu knew he was powerless to participate in the treasure hunt any longer and withdrew from Jinghai Sect with a dejected heart. He took the descendants of Qi Wang and Er Ren with him to protect them from being slaughtered by the old demon as revenge.
Upon returning to the Hundred Flowers Valley, the mountain has been closed off ever since.
"Speaking of this, Mu Guzhu's expression darkened, and she said coldly: 'Over the years, there have often been people of unknown identity who have been active nearby, spying on Baohua Valley.'"

"How dare that old demon be so arrogant"
Qin Sang frowned, it seemed the Demon-Taming Old Man hadn't given up yet.
"Master Mu gave a cold snort, "In the Strings of Moonlight Realm, Master Mu naturally fears no demon. If not for my injuries, I would have gone out to have a showdown with that old demon long ago! I've always worried that Daoist Master had also fallen victim to the old demon's poison. Now seeing Daoist Master unharmed, I can finally rest easy."
Qin Sang smiled inwardly, knowing that Master Mu was truly concerned about the Wanling Fruit.
>
He came for this purpose, wasting no time. He admitted to obtaining the Wanling Fruit under the guidance of the Huo Yu Wugong, but he concealed the true number, claiming he only received four.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
As for the matter of the Spirit Tree and the Buddha Temple treasure, it was not mentioned at all.
The Sect Master of Mu did not respond, clearly not fully convinced, but also did not refute it.
As they were speaking, the two entered the Hundred Flowers Valley.
Qin Sang saw many unfamiliar faces in the valley, all descendants of Qi Wang and Er Ren.
Lan Jingsi was meditating in seclusion, but when she heard Qin Sang's approach, she left her cave to greet him.
Qin Sang felt a hint of eagerness in Lan Jingsi's eyes. Her natal insect, Gu, was still at the peak of its third transformation and hesitated to ascend to the spirit realm. It needed the Wanling Fruit to increase its chances of success.
The three of them each had their own thoughts, but they chatted happily and entered the bamboo building to sit down.
After pleasantries.
Qin Sang said: "This poor Taoist came here for two reasons: first, to visit Master Mu; second, I have a request for the two fellow Daoists."
The Valley Master, ignoring the first sentence, said, "Dao Chang, if you have any difficulties, please tell me. As long as it is within the capabilities of Hundred Flowers Valley, I and my junior sister will do our best to help!"
Qin Sang chuckled and said, "If it were just a trivial matter, I wouldn't trouble the two of you. My Fire Jade Centipede is about to face the Four Transformations Tribulation, which you are both well aware of. After learning about the Ascension Spirit Technique, I have been running around collecting spiritual materials, but they are rare and extremely difficult to find. I figured that Hundred Flowers Valley must have some in their collection, so I can only humbly request them."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Valley Master was well aware of this, her face turning grim as she put on an air of control. "This... the spirit beast needed for ascending one's cultivation is extremely rare in the world. It concerns our valley's lineage and has been consumed through generations. There are barely any left inside the valley, I'm afraid..."
"I see, I was presumptuous."
Qin Sang sighed long, and immediately wanted to get up, "I'll just pretend I never said this..."
"Wait a moment, Master Daoist!"
Master Mu didn't expect Qin Sang to play his cards differently. He hurried up to call her back. Seeing Qin Sang's playful eyes, he felt ashamed and dared not put on airs anymore. He directly stated the terms: "Master Mu can provide Daoist with a complete set of materials needed for ascension. However... I hope Daoist understands our difficulties. For the three most important spiritual items like Yuan Yin Water, we want three Wan Lingguo in exchange. It's a fair deal for Daoist. Other kinds of spiritual items will be considered a gift from Master Mu."
Qin Sang smiled wryly, "The Wanling Fruit only has four pieces. Daoist friend wants to take half of them."
The master of Mu Valley said solemnly, "If it's already refined Spirit-Calming Incense, no matter how many more spirit creatures, I, Mu, wouldn't dare to covet it. The Ten Thousand Spirits Fruit is just one ingredient in the Spirit-Calming Incense, and its own medicinal effect has some limitations. This price is already very fair."
Qin Sang did not agree.
He claimed to have received four Divine Fruits rather than any other number, which was a subtle way of stating his bottom line.
Three Spirit Fruits, he could take them out, but the Valley Master had to use more things in exchange.
“A complete lingwu, plus two portions of solitary Yinming soil!” Qin Sang first raised one finger, then two.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"What does the Daoist need so many Yin Ming soils for"
The sect master had made preparations for bargaining, but unexpectedly Qin Sang's demands were so strange.
He and Lan Jing exchanged glances and pondered, "Daochang, you may not know that Yinming soil is extremely rare. Back then, the ancestor traveled all over the North Sea and only managed to obtain a small piece in an ancient cultivator's cave by chance. After generations of use in Baohua Valley, there are very few left, and it has never been replenished. This matter has long been our biggest challenge. My sister and I must consider the future generations, so at most, we can give Daochang one more portion of Yinming soil."
Mu Guzhu's tone was very firm.
Please let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang could tell that there was no room for discussion on this matter.
He pondered silently, requesting three portions of the Yin Ming soil for the preparation of three spiritual worms.
However, the Fat Silkworm is not Qin Sang's spiritual insect. The chances of Qin Sang helping it ascend to a higher level are extremely low. Besides, the Fat Silkworm is currently devouring the poison sac, so it might be able to break through its fourth transformation without needing to ascend.
Upon considering this, Qin Sang no longer insisted. He changed the condition: "This humble monk is only half-way into his cultivation path, barely scratching the surface of insect control. I humbly request that the Valley Master bestow upon me some guidance."
>
This is easy for you!
The Valley Master chuckled and clapped his hands, readily agreeing.
Qin Sang also smiled, took out three jade boxes, and placed them on the table.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The sect master Mu gave Lan Jing a knowing look and carefully examined the Wanling Fruit. Although the skin was slightly dull and wrinkled, it was undoubtedly a Wanling Fruit.
She walked quietly through the path to the treasure chamber and returned shortly. She gave Qin Sang a small pouch.
Qin Sang counted carefully, confirming everything was correct.
The Yinming soil originally was a kind of grayish-white stone. At first glance, there seemed to be nothing unusual about it.
Both sides happily put away their treasures.
Next, Qin Sang was going to stay in the Hundred Flowers Valley for a while and learn about insect control.
The head of Mu sect held a grand feast to entertain Qin Sang.
As cups clinked and laughter filled the air, a disciple suddenly arrived to report. A cultivator at the Golden Core stage had appeared outside the main formation, claiming to be a descendant of the Demon-Subduing Elder and requesting an audience with the valley master.
The heated atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Qin Sang twirled the wine glass in his hand, silent and contemplative.
The Sect Master Mu pressed his hands against the table and roared, "That old demon is audacious! I didn't hold grudges against him before, but he dares to come barging in! Bring someone over immediately and kill this person. Throw his body out to feed the poisonous insects!"
“Slow!”
Qin Sang waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Lord Mu, please calm down. Even during wartime between two countries, envoys are not killed. Perhaps we should see what the Demon-Conquering Elder wants to do."
The messenger of the old devil came neither early nor late, but only when he was present. This was strange.
The Valley Master frowned and instructed his disciple, "What the Daoist said makes sense. Let's spare his life for now. Go summon him here!"
Moments later, the disciple led in a young man dressed in black robes.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The young man in black robes stood before the three Yuan Ying cultivators, whose aura was not concealed. He bowed respectfully and said: "Junior Yun Hai Feng, greets the three seniors."
"Who are you, old man of demons What brings you here" Lan Jingsi asked.
"I am your junior disciple!"
The young man in black robes lowered his head, not daring to look. "Master ordered me to deliver an invitation card, but it's not for the two seniors from Bailian Valley. It must be offered when Bailian Valley opens its gates to welcome distinguished guests."
As soon as those words left his mouth, both Mu Guzhu and Lan Jingsi turned their heads to look at Qin Sang.
The Demonic Elder was most likely looking for Qin Sang. He couldn't find Qin Sang, but he knew about the relationship between Qin Sang and Mu Guzhu. Qin Sang also guessed this possibility, secretly wondering what kind of calculations this old demon was making.
They pursued him relentlessly across thousands of miles during the Grand Magus Gathering, and now they want to make amends
Where is the visiting card
The young man in black addressed him with utmost respect, "Forgive my presumption, senior. I dare to ask, are you the one Master had met in the Buddha Hall all those years ago"
Qin Sang chuckled and said, "Exactly."
Receiving a positive response, the young man in black didn't dare ask any further questions. He immediately presented an invitation and stood quietly to the side.
With Mu Guzhu and Lan Jingsi's curious gazes, Qin Sang unfolded the invitation card, scanned it through, her eyes were strange, she didn't say a word.
"Isn't Old Demon threatening the Daoist Priest"
The sect master became even more curious and transmitted a voice, asking.
Qin Sang shook his head and directly handed the name card in his hand over.
Mu Guzhu unfolded the letter and read it, his expression stunned. He said in disbelief, "This old demon actually wants to make peace with Dao Chang and cooperate fully"
The content on the visiting card is very simple.
The old devil exclaimed his admiration for Qin Sang's divine abilities, and since neither party had suffered irreparable losses or borne any mortal hatred, he hoped to turn hostility into harmony.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And they have a common enemy, a powerful one, which also forms the basis of their alliance.
Even, the old man admitted he was in the wrong and was willing to offer his treasure as compensation, to resolve the grudge, and even plot a major undertaking together.
If Qin Sang is interested, we can meet and talk in detail. The location can be chosen by Qin Sang, which shows their sincerity.
Through the words of the young man in black robes and the contents of the visiting card, Mu Guzhu could deduce that during Qin Sang's time at the Jinghai Sect, there had been a clash between him and the Demon-Confining Elder, resulting in a grudge.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The devilish old man didn't seem to gain any advantage, and he acknowledged Qin Sang as a peerless expert. He took the initiative to make peace.
Besides, the force that could compel the two top experts to join forces against it was unmatched in the entire North Sea. It had to be either the demon clan or Xuan Tian Palace. One wonders what Abbot Mingyue had done to offend them!
Mu Guzhu's heart flashed, and he had a deeper understanding of Qin Sang's strength. He became even more determined to make friends with him.
What intrigued him more was the major piece of good news that the old demon-slaying master had mentioned, but he also understood that this matter was akin to scheming with a tiger, carrying an immense risk.
The Sect Master Mu looked at Qin Sang, guessing how Qin Sang would decide.
