so the plight of many cultivators. Those who practice in seclusion lack cultivation resources, and those distracted by external affairs, even if they can earn some spirit stones, will inevitably affec...Trying to catch fish with a blood-red worm, he ended up losing his rice and being caught himself.
Qin Sang didn't find it funny.
The fat chicken was even more terrified, lamenting the treacherous state of the world.
"In this Black Tower formation, is there someone who has survived from ancient times to the present day"
Qin Sang said in a low voice.
After rescuing Bai and experiencing the tribulation of the Seven Killing Hall, Qin Sang's Qingluan remnant shadow was awakened. He also encountered a mysterious person's bone formation at the Tiansi Sect's main altar. Qin Sang was already used to these sorts of things.
The Purple Star Palace is in turmoil, with far-reaching consequences. Ancient taboos are broken, and one by one, demons and monsters emerge.
Qin Sang was both happy and sad.
What's more exciting is that more ancient cultivators are emerging, and among them, there must be those who remember the secrets of the ancient times.
The worry is that if another brutal Demon Lord appears, the Beichen Realm has no cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage to quell the chaos and reseal the Demon Lord.
The entire Beichen Realm will be devastated.

Blood Lake is a dangerous place, but also a treasure trove. It has endless blood-red sandalwood, boiling blood evil flowers, and even spirit medicine that attracts the astonishingly talented.
What's even more remarkable is that few people dare to venture there.
It is unknown how much Ye Lao Mo and the others know about this place, whether they know that there are ancient cultivators hiding here, posing a hidden danger
Could it be that they came for that ancient cultivator
It's possible for three or two people to be misled, but Qin Sang didn't believe that all the cultivators of Zuiyuan had gone mad. They wouldn't help Ye Lao Mo release the ancient demon unless they had received some information beforehand.
"I don't know who that person is. Perhaps he is the ancient cultivator you mentioned, or maybe he is a predecessor who mistakenly entered here and got trapped like me. But this man has no good intentions; he harbors ill will towards me and is definitely not a kind person!"
Jing Yu said hatefully.
That year, what attracted Jing Yu was a spiritual creature called Corpse Flower Blood Jade.
The conditions for the formation of Corpse Flower Blood Amber are extremely harsh.
First, one must cultivate several rare and precious spiritual flowers in a place of extreme darkness and dense blood qi.
After these spiritual flowers bloomed, no one picked them. They never withered and, over time, absorbed too much vitality. The spiritual flowers gradually crystallized and transformed, washing away impurities and becoming amber-like.
Like a gem, it is also a kind of elixir for the demon clan.
The Corpse Flower Blood Pearl contains blood poison, and humans avoid it like the plague. However, powerful demon tribes, when on the brink of a breakthrough, can directly consume the Corpse Flower Blood Pearl. After refining it, they forcibly attack their own bloodline power to find a breakthrough opportunity.
However, if one's strength is insufficient, they will be taken advantage of by the blood poison and die instantly, with no cure available.
Is a panacea, but also a poison.
The demon race both loves and hates the corpse flower blood pearl.
“I was drawn here by the fluctuations of the blood lake’s seal. I saw several phantoms of Corpse Flower Blood Pearls floating on the blood lake, teetering on the brink of shattering at any moment. I also discovered that the blood lake's seal was weakening. I took this as a divine opportunity and joined forces with another demonic cultivator who lived in the Wuyá Valley to break the seal and enter…”
Jingyu recalled his previous experiences as he spoke, recounting what had happened to him.
The Blood Lake Seal will stir once every ten years.
Over time, they became accustomed to it and no longer found it strange.
This time it just vibrated with a larger amplitude.
After Jingyu charged in, he saw the true form of Chihua Xueper floating at the center of the basin on top of the mountain, right within this black pagoda formation.
They were not capable of fishing out the corpse flower blood pearl from afar, so they had to enter the basin themselves and find it.
At that time, the restrictions on the blood gate were not as strong as they are now. The two demons attacked together for a while and pushed open a gap, sneaking in.
After falling into the Black Tower Formation, the two demons dodged the flesh puppets and searched around. They found the center of the formation and were about to collect the Corpse Flower Blood Pearl when they suddenly felt something was wrong.
“We've been stuck in a rut for too long, our minds clouded. All these abnormalities along the way were overlooked by us.”
“I don't know if he lured us in to trick us into breaking the seal for him, or if he sees us as prey. Seeing that we had caught on, he immediately bared his fangs.”
"I was born with mastery over the Lightning Release, barely escaping with grievous wounds. He was sealed away but could still control these flesh puppets, relentlessly hunting us down. I struggled to find the Blood Gate only to discover it sealed shut, beyond my power to open."
"Thankfully, he couldn't rampage forever. I escaped his clutches within the Black Tower formation, enduring a perilous journey until he fell asleep. As for that fellow cultivator, their whereabouts remain unknown; they haven't reappeared since."
Jing Yu let out a soft sigh, paused for a moment, and then said, "I was severely injured, so I had to heal while searching for a way out. After that, he would wake up once every ten years. Even with a decade apart, it was difficult for me to recover in this sinister place. That period was extremely miserable, my wounds grew worse and worse. Later, by chance, I discovered this hidden chamber. At that time, I was near death's door. Although I knew the dungeon might not be safe, I had no other choice..."
Saying that, Jing Yu touched the head of the fat chicken softly and said in a gentle voice: "Heaven treats me well. The prison's restrictions only confine but do not harm me, so there is a day for us to reunite."
Jing Yu spoke about his experiences in a calm tone, but Qin Sang and Fat Chicken could feel how thrilling and terrifying they were.
To be freed from one's shackles only to be imprisoned anew, with no hope of ever breaking free – what despair!
Qin Sang listened to Jing Yu's story, but still knew little about the ancient cultivators sealed here.
"The Blood Lake Seal fluctuates every ten years. Is that person attacking the seal Since he can control flesh puppets, why not use them to attack the seal or go out to seek blood food"
Qin Sang asked in confusion.
Jingyu recalled, “From my observation, the flesh puppets should not belong to that person, but were born from the Black Tower Formation. I don't know what means that person used to forcefully control them. Even when controlled, these puppets cannot harm the formation or the seal, and they are estimated to be unable to leave the range of the formation.”
"That makes sense," Qin Sang nodded, frowning. "But with so many cultivators from both domains entering, the flesh and blood puppets remained unaffected, and I received no warning from the Lord of Tongyou. We were forced to separate; was that person asleep or did they have another plan while seizing the opportunity to capture the Blood Food"
After some thought, Jing Yu spoke in a low voice: "It's not about whether it should be done or not, but rather whether it can be done!"
What do you mean
Qin Sang was astonished.
A cold light flashed in Jing Yu's eyes, "Before hiding in the dungeon, I noticed that the number of flesh puppets controlled by that person was decreasing with each passing time. Even though I was in the dungeon, I could still sense the fluctuations caused by his attack on the seal. The last two times when that person should have awakened, there was no movement..."
"What do you mean..."
"Even if he's not dead, he's at his wit's end!" Jingyu declared.
Qin Sang finally knew what Ye Lao Mo was plotting.
>
A mere corpse flower with blood jade, not worth all this fuss. Crime Abyss probably found out about the sealed ancient cultivator within Blood Lake from somewhere.
A veteran cultivator who has run out of oil and his lamp is extinguished!
It's no less than a treasure trove!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It's just that it's unknown whether they ultimately imprisoned Gushu or if Gushu took the opportunity to escape and triggered a catastrophe.
Qin Sang had personally seen the Demon Lord, and to this day, he was still haunted by it.
