in had few people, steep terrain, and the roads on the mountain were carved along cliffs. The bottom of the ten-thousand-zhang precipice was the surging river. The terrain was very dangerous, just rig...Mount Shaohua.

Qin Sang now appears on Dao Men Peak.

>

The disciples who came and went on Daomen Peak were all unfamiliar faces. Qin Sang used a disguised cultivation level to avoid some trouble, following the steps, he walked to the wooden hall on Daomen Peak.

The grand hall was open, with some disciples coming and going. Qin Sang walked in and didn't see Master Wen, but he saw a familiar face from long ago, Zhuang Yan!

"Master Zhuang."

Qin Sang noticed that Zhuang Yan had successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment period. It seemed that Zhuang Yan's years of ascetic cultivation had not been in vain.

"Qin, my younger brother!"

Zheng was arranging tasks for a disciple when he saw Qin Sang. Surprise flashed across his face, and with a few words, he sent the disciple away. Then he strode over and said with a hearty laugh, "I heard from the battlefield that you have broken through to the middle stage of Qi Foundation. My junior apprentice title feels so inadequate! Thankfully we didn't meet these past few years, or I would have had to call you senior uncle for several more years. My old face wouldn't know where to go! Haha..."

Qin Sang also giggled and jokingly bowed, "Congratulations, congratulations, Brother Zhuang has turned over a new leaf... Where is Brother Wen"

Zhuangyan shook his head helplessly and said, “My master is preparing to enjoy his retirement and doesn't concern himself with worldly affairs. He's probably playing chess with some old friends for amusement right now. I, his disciple, can only take on the burden in his stead.”

"Master"

Qin Sang suddenly realized, it seemed that Zhuang Yan had accepted Wen Shixiong's care and officially became his disciple.

Their three names for each other sounded very confusing, but in the cultivation world, it was normal.

Qin Sang calling Wen Shidi and Zhuang Shidi was based on the customary rules of the Xianxia world and the private relationship between them. It was quite flexible, as long as one didn't offend anyone.

The solemn and formal ritual of disciples bowing to their master is a private affair.

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

The righteousness between master and disciple surpasses heaven. Even if a disciple's cultivation is one level higher than their master, they must still pay respects to their teacher.

Keep public and private affairs separate.

Everyone mind your own business.

Zhuang Yan brought Qin Sang to the quiet room and sat down. "The master learned that you broke through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he was also extremely pleased and shouted with joy. I immediately told him by sound transmission, he must be very happy. Now tell me, what is the real situation inside the Ancient Immortal Battlefield..."

"Master Zhuang is also interested in going to the ancient battlefield of Xian for training" Qin Sang heard the subtext.

Master Zheng nodded solemnly, "Staying in the sect might be peaceful, but it's hard to achieve great accomplishments. Going out to experience different places is the only way to seek opportunities. That's what Master means too."

Qin Sang saw the admiration hidden in Zhuang Yan's serious eyes and could guess that Zhuang Yan probably thought he had encountered a great opportunity on the ancient fairy battlefield to break through. He didn't point it out, but pondered: "Senior Brother Zhuang, going to the ancient fairy battlefield now is not the best time. You should know about the approaching spiritual tide, right"

Zhuangren hummed solemnly and leaned closer, saying in a mysterious tone, "There have been rumors spreading around lately, and the disciples at the Qi Refining stage have all been discussing it incessantly. How could I be unaware In order to cope with the changing situation, the sect affairs are now controlled by Shixiong Qi, while Elder Yu can only play along and act as a mere echo to prevent the disciples from panicking. That's why the headmaster position hasn't changed. Furthermore, the sect is currently preparing to assemble a team to patrol Yuncang Great Marsh. I'm also hesitating, whether to go to the Ancient Immortal Battlefield or stay in Yuncang Great Marsh."

“The tide of spirits is approaching, and chaos in the ancient fairy battlefield is gradually rising. Compared with Yuncang Dazze where we guard, it's hard to say which one is more dangerous. However, we have our sect as our backing. If Brother Zhuang can make up his mind, the brewing of the spiritual tide still takes some time, so we might as well try going to the ancient fairy battlefield.”

Then, Qin Sang recounted his experiences on the Ancient Immortal Battlefield in detail, leaving it to Zhuang Yan to decide how much to reveal.

Zhuangyan fell silent, lost in thought for a long time.

From Zhuang Yan's words, Qin Sang learned that not only Shaohuashan, but several major sects had also organized manpower to patrol Yuncang Dazze and Tian Duan Shan. Only then did Qin Sang truly feel the escalating tension.

It's important to carefully plan how you will make choices for your future.

After a while, Wen Shidi also returned. The three reunited and chatted happily until the evening when Qin Sang bid farewell to the two and went to Baotashan Peak again.

Qin Sang first selected a few spells to practice in the future, then began searching through the vast sea of ancient books.

The next morning.

A ray of light shot out from Baotashan peak, flying towards a green peak at the edge of Shaohuashan Mountain Gate.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this Qingfeng Mountain is inconspicuous among the mountain ranges. There is a vast world within this mountain, and it happens to lie on a spiritual vein leading to the Shaohua Mountain gate. While the mountain peak itself isn't imposing, there are several cave dwellings on the mountaintop suitable for foundation-building cultivators to practice in.

A ray of light swirled around Qingfeng once, stopping before the cliff face on its western side. The arrival was Qin Sang.

Qin Sang's gaze swept over the cliff face, and with a wave of his hand, he unleashed a restriction. The mountain wall rippled and shifted, revealing a cave entrance. This was the cave dwelling chosen by Zhuo Jian after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage; Qin Sang would temporarily borrow it for his own use.

>

Entering the cave abode, activating the restrictions, Qin Sang recalled the busyness of last night and couldn't help but shake his head.

After a busy night, most of the content I found related to Ziwei Palace was vague and unsubstantiated.

As can be seen, the truly valuable content isn't at Paota Peak, and it might only circulate between the Foundation Establishment and Core Formation stages. My current cultivation level is not yet qualified to access it.

Another possibility is that Shaohua Mountain knows little about the Purple Micro Palace.

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

The Purple Palace is mysterious and unusual. Even a powerful ancestor like the Multi-Elemental Infant only explored a small portion of it.

After a moment of silent contemplation, Qin Sang made a gesture with his hand and retrieved the jade slip that Wu Zhu had given him.

Before Wu, Qin Sang only skimmed the jade slip and didn't ponder it carefully. He had a vague feeling that the content of the jade slip was helpful to the Wumu sword, but he wasn't sure how much help.

Qin Sang guessed that this situation was probably related to the unique refining method of the Wumu Sword.

According to this method, if Qin Sang can find top-grade spiritual wood, he can have a natal spirit sword of the magic treasure level in the later stage of foundation building.

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

This shows that the method of refining one's natal spirit sword described in the cultivation technique was originally based on the path of refining magic treasures from the beginning.

As the saying goes, "One who understands one thing can understand all related things." It's no wonder he learned from the jade slips how to refine the obsidian sword.

As Qin Sang delved deeper into understanding these contents, he increasingly felt the strain. It wasn't easy to fully grasp them.

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

Qin Sang could also guess the reason. He knew nothing about refining tools. Not even understanding how to refine a magic weapon, he wanted to directly comprehend the jade slip. Thinking about it, it was impossible.

Qin Sang's gaze shifted and fell upon the ancestral writings left behind by the former owner of Wu's shop.

In comparison, these insights are rather superficial. However, to truly understand and master them, one cannot simply remain secluded in a cave; practical application is essential.

Could it be that I need to focus on learning about refining tools

It's not a waste. After breaking through the Jindan stage, this experience will definitely be helpful when refining one's natal magic treasure. I just can't spare the energy for it right now.

Qin Sang secretly shook his head and put the jade slip into his pouch.

After that, Qin Sang cultivated while traveling to visit friends and handling miscellaneous affairs.

Before I knew it, it was time to depart.

>ho arrived before them, it is unknown how many treasures this person collected.This space doesn't seem like a simple ancient cultivator's residence, but rather the entrance to an old sect or a gatheri...
