Chapter 1560 Blood Crocodile Bone Hand
nciple.The gap in strength between the two sides was too great; conspiracy and trickery were ineffective.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!But...Bai suddenly changed hi...Shen Chen was quite obedient. After paying his respects to his master, he followed Qin Sang closely, behaving like a dutiful disciple.
Back to Liuzhou Hall.

Jiang Mu retreated to the sides, and Qin Sang also let Shen Chen guard at the door.
"I have always had a question that I would like to ask, friend. Could you please enlighten me"
Jiang Mu personally offered fragrant tea.
Qin Sang took a sip, "Daoist Jiang, you want to ask about those meteorite fragments I wonder if you're asking for yourself or someone else"
Jiang Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, "If it were for someone else, what would you say"
“These meteorite fragments are related to a secret, unfortunately the clues are broken. Qin is alone and outnumbered, and cannot focus on this in the short term. However, although this secret is very important, Qin doesn't want to keep it to himself and doesn't mind looking for a force to cooperate with.”
Qin Sang basically made it clear.

If we could find the ascension platform in the future, it would still take a lot of preparation to activate it.
He couldn't rampage through Zhongzhou like the Jade Bone Demon and Ye Lao Mo, slaughtering nascent souls and refining blood infants. With Bai's guidance, he could choose a different method, but it would require immense resources.
Collaboration is inevitable.
Liuzhou Tang is a good choice, but Jiang Mu's identity and cultivation are still lacking.

Jiang Mu fell silent for a moment, then said: "Ten years ago, Master Mu came to Feiyun渡 in person. He wanted to pay a visit, but learned that Daoist Qin was in seclusion, so he did not disturb him. I immediately ordered someone to contact the main hall."
Qin Sang stayed in the Liuzhou Hall.
When night fell, Jiang Mu brought over an elderly man with rosy cheeks, a full brow, and the appearance of a young boy. He was none other than Mu Tongshu, the head of the Liuzhou Hall.
Mu Tong's written appearance was amiable, with no imposing grandeur of a great cultivator. He looked like a prosperous businessman who made money through good relations. Before Qin Sang, he didn't deliberately conceal his cultivation base and turned out to be a great cultivator!
“Mu arrived late, keeping Qin Daoist waiting for a long time,” Mu Tongshu said with a smile before speaking, bowing his hand in greeting.
Jiang Mu took the initiative to step out of the door and shut the meditation room.
"Have met Master Mu."
Qin Sang rose and returned the greeting.

The master of Liuzhou Tang is truly a great cultivator!
Even seeing it with his own eyes, Qin Sang still felt quite surprised.
Please note that the original content within the tags was empty. I have simply retained the HTML tag as instructed.
At the Yi Bao gathering, this person did not appear in person, but used other means to create the imposing presence of a great cultivator.
In Qin Sang's understanding, the major commercial guilds in the Cultivation Realm were closely related to sects, basically existing as vassals, or even established by disciples at the behest of their sects.
Here's the translated content, keeping only the text and HTML tags:

Zhongzhou is no exception.
As a top combatant of a sect, a great cultivator couldn't possibly handle everything personally.
The Chamber of Commerce's manager was, at best, a middle-stage Nascent Soul elder from the sect. His path in cultivation held no hope, so he poured his remaining energy into this role, much like the Pavilion Master of Qixiang Pavilion.
Qin Sang had conducted an investigation beforehand but hadn't found out which force was behind Liuzhoutang.

Now it seems, with this Lord Presiding, the Six States Hall need not rely on any Sect.

"Wouldn't you find it strange, Daoist friend, that Mu would be guarding a mere small trading firm like this Doesn't seem very ambitious, does it" Mu Tongshu guessed Qin Sang's thoughts and replied with a slightly self-deprecating tone.
>
Qin Sang shook his head. "Liuzhou Tang isn't just some small merchant guild. Besides, everyone has their own aspirations. Qin is a solitary man, not even as good as Master Mu."
“That’s because, fellow cultivator, you are a person who seeks the Dao, with no attachments and nothing to hold onto, only the immortal way in your heart!”
>
Mu Tongshu seemed to have recalled something, a wistful expression on his face. "When I was young," he said, "the old hall master brought me into Liuzhou Hall and took me as his disciple. That's how I am today. I can't bear to let go of this attachment."
The two sat face to face.
There's no need to rush into the main topic.
After some pleasantries.
Qin Sang subtly questioned the background of Liuzhou Tang.
Mu Tongshu frankly said: "Friends can regard the Liu Zhou Tang as a sect, but this hall is based on commerce. There is no magnificent mountain gate. It's not easy to operate a business association in the Central Plains, especially since our hall doesn't want to be someone else's vassal. Fortunately, various forces check and balance each other, allowing our hall to survive in the cracks. But it's unavoidable to be tactful and suffer from others. Until Mu broke through to the late stage of Yuanying, the situation only improved."
The implication is that Liuzhoutang did not rely on any faction.
Qin Sang nodded secretly. The Liuzhou Hall had maintained its independence and developed such a large force. The successive hall masters must have put in a lot of effort.
Thanks to the complex yet long-lasting stability of the cultivation world in Central Plains.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
All parties need such a neutral chamber of commerce that is not overly interfered with by other forces, so they tacitly allow the existence of the Liuzhou Hall.

Qin Sang played with the jade cup in his hand and thought for a moment before saying, "Master Mu must have already known the reason. To be honest, the reason Qin made such a big fuss is because the meteorite fragments may involve the secrets of ascension."

"Ascension"
Mu Tong's pupils contracted, and a hint of suspicion crossed his face. "Could this treasure be connected to the Eight Views Pavilion and the Ganlu Zen Temple"
Although Central Plains cultivators were unclear about the truth of 'ascending', they all knew a publicly known secret.
After a Nascent Soul cultivator has achieved success in their cultivation, they will all go to visit these two great immortal sects.
Therefore, when Qin Sang mentioned the term "flying ascension," Mu Tongshu immediately thought of them.
The main hall of the Liuzhoutang is located in Tianzhong County, between the two great immortal sects. Mu Tongshu knows more about it.
>
Those cultivators who ascended to the Divine Transformation Realm should have reached some kind of agreement with the two major immortal sects. After leaving the two major immortal sects, they rarely interfered in the cultivation world again.
It is widely suspected that the two great immortal sects used the ascension technique as leverage, trading it for concessions from other Nascent Soul cultivators to maintain their status.
“Not so!”
Qin Sang stated his conclusion after years of contemplation, "The immortal and Buddhist sects may know the truth about 'ascending', but they don't reveal it to us Nascent Soul cultivators. Let's assume 'ascending' is real, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the immortal and Buddhist sects need to intimidate all parties and maintain their dominant position. It makes sense for them to remain in this world. Throughout history, there have been other Nascent Soul cultivators like the Demon Lord Lu who prefer solitude and don't seek to expand their power. Why do they stay in this world and retreat for long periods I believe that ascending is not an easy feat even for Nascent Soul cultivators. Moreover, if the two major immortal sects secretly manipulate things, how can we guard against it"
“Could it be that you know of other methods for ascending to the heavens” Mu Tong's face was etched with astonishment.
Qin Sang shook his head and sighed softly, "To be honest, Qin doesn't have much confidence either, otherwise the truth about 'Ascending' wouldn't always be in their hands. But even if there's a one in ten thousand chance, it's worth a shot."
He was not ready to tell Mu Tongshu about the possibility of a Yuan Ying late-stage cultivator using the Ascension Platform to ascend.
If Mu Tongshu's book is unreliable and he leaks it, the situation could spiral out of control.
No one knows exactly how many times the Ascension Platform can be used.
Qin Sang was worried that other ascension platforms would be the same as the one in Ziwu Palace, destroyed all at once.
“Ascension...”
Mu Tongshu was somewhat stunned.
For these powerful cultivators, ascension was still a distant prospect, as the tribulation of transforming into a deity stood between them. But as Qin Sang said, even a sliver of hope had to be grasped tightly.
Take one step at a time.
Even if he doesn't use it, it can benefit future generations.
But how can we be sure Qin Sang is telling the truth
Mu Tongshu spoke frankly and raised questions.
Qin Sang spread his hands, looking righteous. "Whether Hall Master Mu believes it or not, I have no evidence! It's too early to talk about ascension. We need to investigate the origin of the meteorite fragments first. Are there similar treasures in the cultivation world And their origins... Your hall has branches all over Central Plains, with extensive connections. You wouldn't have to pay much."
>
Mu Tongshu pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Would it be possible for this temple to have the honor of inviting Daoist Qin to become an honorary elder"
"Qin is very willing."
Outside the Liu Zhuang Pavilion.
Qin Sang and Master Mu bid each other farewell.
Back to the cave.
Qin Sang called Shen Chen to his side, "What kind of cultivation technique are you practicing"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Reporting to Master, it is the Jin Xing Gong method, Yao Guang Jue."
Shen Chen immediately took out a jade slip and presented it to Qin Sang with both hands.
Qin Sang glanced over it simply.
The Jade Light Sutra wasn't a top-tier martial art, but the several accompanying supernatural abilities surprisingly proved helpful in refining weapons. In a sense, it was extremely suitable for Shen Chen.
Here is the translation of your content:

Qin Sang did have better cultivation techniques, but after consideration, he decided to let Shen Chen continue cultivating the Yao Guang Jue for now. He would consider switching to a different technique after Shen Chen reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Switching martial arts techniques requires a lot of effort and can affect one's cultivation.
Qin Sang practiced a different type of martial art, but with his vision, giving Shen Chen some pointers was effortless. After thinking for a while, he left dense annotations in the jade slip and returned it to Shen Chen.
"From now on, remember to focus on cultivation and quickly improve your cultivation level. Don't distract yourself by refining tools for the time being, but remember not to neglect it. Take these pills as appropriate."
Qin Sang took out some jade bottles from the Qianjun Seal, along with some alchemy manuals he had collected, and handed them all to Shen Chen.
The medicinal herbs were recently purchased from Liuzhou Hall. A portion of the crocodile demon's remains was enough, and Liuzhou Hall even gave him a discount.
A guest elder's status shouldn't be wasted.

Shen Chen took everything.

After the surprise, I finally came to my senses.
Master was indeed not for no reason taking me on as his disciple. Listening to Master's tone, I am currently at too low a realm and need to become a Yuan Ying cultivator before I am of use.
Yuan Ying, to Shen Chen in the past, was something he only dared to dream of. Now, with this cheap master, it seemed within reach.
Shen Chen had been struggling in the immortal cultivation world for many years and didn't feel anything out of place.
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
What I fear most is being useless!
Moreover, the cheap master valued his talent for refining tools more than his own life.
Qin Sang didn't care what Shen Chen was thinking. She raised her hand and pointed with her index finger at Shen Chen's brow.
Shen Chen only felt a sudden daze, and a new formation suddenly appeared in his consciousness. He could only see the tip of the iceberg now, but he could feel that the spiritual formation was extremely complex, the most intricate he had ever seen.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“This is part of the complete spirit array. Remember what your master said before, you can only comprehend it, don't recklessly try!” Qin Sang said solemnly.
>
Shen Chen hastily withdrew his attention, trembling with fear and anxiety, "Disciple obeys!"
Qin Sang nodded.
Pushing Shen Chenqiang to the Yuanying stage might be similar to the apprentice of the strange-faced man, lacking experience and falling short in ability compared to his cultivation level.
However, Shen Chen was unlike Bai Hanyan and Mei Gu. He had no prior connection with Qin Sang, so there wasn't any emotional bond between them.
Qin Sang impulsively took this disciple, more focusing on his talent in refining tools. Martial combat skills were less important. Accepting an apprentice was still different from passing down his mantle.
And then he said a few more things.
Qin Sang originally wanted to drive Shen Chen out, but after thinking about it, he said, "You stand aside, I want to refine something. You can observe from the side, don't worry about understanding anything immediately, just remember it in your heart."
"Yes!"
Shen Chen huddled in the corner, a mix of excitement and anticipation coursing through him. This was his first time witnessing a nascent infant cultivator refine a magical artifact with his own eyes.
Qin Sang wiped his fingers over the Qianjun Ring, and in his palm appeared a monster pill, precisely the monster pill of the crocodile demon.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The first crocodile demon was blown to death by the sun bird, leaving only its remains. Its spirit and demon pill were destroyed. The second crocodile demon's demon pill remained intact.
The soul of the crocodile demon dissipated after the soul search, leaving only a pure and flawless demonic pill within the demonic core. There was no trace of the crocodile demon's soul.
Shen Chen was completely infatuated.
The elixir of a Shapeshifting Demon!
Shen Chen's heart was shaken. He had a new understanding of his master's strength.
Qin Sang stared at the demon pill in his hand.
After slaying the crocodile demon and obtaining its bone, Qin Sang began to ponder how he could utilize it. The crocodile bone could unleash a thousand-zhang giant crocodile, its power was extraordinary. If he could harness it, he would gain another formidable technique.
He wasn't a monster, he had no crocodile demon bloodline and couldn't subdue the crocodile bone.
He didn't have the bloodline of the Crocodile Demon, but he had the corpse and demon pill of a Crocodile Demon. This Crocodile Demon had been venerated by a crocodile bone in its lifetime, and the crocodile bone had already acknowledged its aura.
Qin Sang wanted to use these to deceive Ao Gu. Over the past ten years, while he cultivated and pondered, he had already formulated a plan.
The demon pill is in hand.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
A ball of black flames suddenly engulfed Qin Sang's palm. The demonic fire was extremely violent, but in Qin Sang's hand, it appeared so docile.
Shen Chen's eyes widened as she looked at the demonic fire in Qin Sang's hand, swallowing nervously. She was both afraid and envious.
He felt that the demonic fire could easily kill him.
If only I could be like my master and subdue such a terrifying demonic fire.
The magic fire engulfs the demonic pill.
The flame appeared very gentle.
Next, the Yao Dan actually began to soften, collapsing from its round shape into an oval, until finally it became a thin sheet.
>
Cultivators who obtain demon pills mostly use them to refine pills.
Shēn Chén saw for the first time a cultivator refining equipment using a Nascent Soul stage demon pill. He completely forgot about his previous distractions, focusing intently on Qin Sang's movements.
In Shen Chen's line of sight.
The demonic fire appeared several times in a rhythmic pattern. Qin Sang took out several rare spiritual materials and drew runes he couldn't understand. The demon pill then transformed, finally becoming a transparent gauntlet.
Every step was so smooth, natural and effortless, it made him intoxicated.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However, Shen Chen didn't understand what power this glove held. He just felt it wasn't like a magic artifact and was very puzzled about it.
After the gloves were formed, Qin Sang took out a small jade bottle.
The jade bottle held a crimson liquid, pure as a ruby. It was the essence blood Qin Sang had extracted from the corpse of the crocodile demon.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
'Bang!'
The jade bottle opened, and the essence blood flew out by itself, hovering above the glove.
Qin Sang's fingers spun like wheels, drawing a thread of blood from his essence. Like embroidery, he wove it into a hand of crimson, which slowly descended and merged with the transparent gloves.
Suddenly, blood splattered everywhere.
Shen Chen gazed intently, only to see a blood-colored glove suspended within the bloody light. It was extremely thin, crimson like blood, emanating a terrifyingly fierce aura, as if a great demon had been reborn!
’Whoosh!’
The blood glove flew to Qin Sang's left hand, its breath and bloodlight converging, returning to transparency, as soft as nothing.
Qin Sang took out the crocodile bone, held it in his left hand, and removed the demonic fire seal on top.
The crocodile struggled again.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
But this time was different. As Qin Sang activated the Blood Gloves, the Crocodilian Bones gradually calmed down.
"It's done!"
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
Qin Sang's heart was filled with joy.
Though only a tool to control the crocodile bones was produced by consuming the demon pill and essence blood of a powerful shapeshifting demon, it was still worthwhile.
