Chapter 109: Offerings to the Yama Banner

emained of the young man were the scratches on the ground.Liang Yan led them down seven or eight steps and came to a row of caves. He said, "These caves are all unoccupied. You can choose one at rando...Sun De was shocked and hurriedly unleashed a ray of light. Within the light, there appeared a finely woven immortal net that swiftly opened at lightning speed, blocking the Yin thunder. But immediately afterward, Qin Sang casually threw out several spirit talismans he had already prepared. Ice, fire, and earth spikes flew together in a chaotic whirlwind, shaking the immortal net to its very foundations.

The ebony sword that followed closely seized the opportunity as the fairy net's glow dimmed, and cleaved it in two.

The weapon was easily destroyed, and the unprepared Sun De only had time to dodge sideways. The blackwood sword scraped across his lower ribs, leaving a long, narrow wound.

This is a placeholder text.

Sun Deyi cried out in pain, his face full of panic, shouting loudly: "Qin Junior Brother, stop! It's a misunderstanding!"

Qin Sang ignored him.

Sun De's words and actions were very suspicious. Even though Qin Sang had a thousand questions, he understood that under no circumstances could he give him a chance to breathe. If he allowed Sun De to unleash his powerful artifact, the situation could easily reverse. He had to strike with all his might and disable him.

The ebony sword was pressed hard, and combined with Qin Sang's unexpected throwing of talismans and Yin Lei, Sun De didn't even have a chance to take out his magic weapon. He glared fiercely at Qin Sang, muttering words under his breath. After a moment, he suddenly stared at Qin Sang in astonishment, as if he had seen something incredible.

Qin Sang didn't know what Sun De was up to. He poured all his energy into the sword technique, turning the ebony sword into streaks of sword light that enveloped Sun De and directly shattered his Qi sea.

Ultimately, Sun De was cornered in the cave dwelling, with nowhere left to go.

Qin Sang severed Sun De's limbs and hoisted him into the air in a small pouch, leaving him with a single breath.

Sun De lay motionless on the ground, as if he had fainted. Qin Sang cautiously used his divine sense to scan him, confirming that Sun De wouldn't cause any trouble, and then retracted the ebony sword.

At that moment, a blue orb of light suddenly flew out from Sun De's head, as fast as a meteor, heading straight for Qin Sang's face.

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

Qin Sang's face showed no signs of panic. Just as the light sphere was about to touch his brow, he secretly activated Tian Xing Lei. A layer of light shield immediately appeared on his body, repelling the light sphere.

The orb trembled in mid-air, about to flee outside the cave. Qin Sang wouldn't let it escape. His figure flashed, blocking the orb's path. Spiritual energy glowed on his palm as he grabbed it and squeezed tightly, causing cries of pain from within.

"Please, Master Qin, spare me! I only came because I hadn't seen you in a long time and was worried. I didn't mean to intrude on your cave dwelling. It was all a misunderstanding! Please, for the sake of our brotherhood, let me go."

Qin Sang's mind echoed Sun De's desperate pleas, but he remained unmoved. He stared impassively at Sun De's soul and then at the completely destroyed Divination Mirror on the ground. He said coldly, "Senior Brother Sun, since this is a misunderstanding, can you tell me how you destroyed the Divination Mirror Why did you think I was definitely going to die"

He originally thought Sun De had some powerful magical artifact to forcefully break the Illusion Mirror. He waited for Sun De to appear, only to discover that wasn't the case.

A top-grade magic artifact, and it's already formed an array. Could it be so easily destroyed

And also, regarding Sun De's shouting when he first met us, saying that cultivators breaking through to the tenth level wouldn't be in any danger at all. Why did he think he was dead

Qin Sang suddenly had a strong premonition in her heart.

“This…”

Sun De hesitated, Qin Sang snorted coldly and clasped his hand tightly again.

A violent fluctuation rippled through the light orb. Sun De let out a painful cry before shouting, "Junior Brother Qin, show mercy! Those mirrors of yours are crafted using a special enchantment, forged with Yin Sha energy. I've seen this kind of enchantment before and know how to break it, that's why... Junior Brother Qin, please don't be angry. These cursed artifacts can't last forever. Even if I don't break them, they will self-destruct after some time..."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

After hearing Sun De's words, Qin Sang still held onto Sun De's primordial spirit, his face thoughtful.

If what Sun De said is true, that the Wuhun Mirror is a cursed object, then the seventeen artifacts they obtained from the Head of Yì are probably no exception. They were likely refined with sinister energy. No wonder each artifact carries an indelible chill.

The Chimera Blade and the Mirror of Confusion are like that, but the Falling Cloud Wings are less noticeable because their function is simply to conceal oneself.

Qin Sang lowered his head and stared at Sun De's primordial spirit, a strange glint flashing in his eyes. He suddenly asked, "Those master smiths in the market couldn't see it, but Senior Brother Sun truly has good eyesight. It seems that Senior Brother Sun has a deep connection with the Kui Yin Sect."

He had never heard of the term "killing artifact" before. He asked so many blacksmiths in the cultivation market, but none of them could figure it out. Yet, Sun De knew it so clearly.

The text "

" is already in English. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The group fell silent.

Qin Sang was secretly surprised. He had only pretended, but Sun De actually had a connection with the Kui Yin Sect.

After a long silence, Sun De let out a sigh and said to Qin, "Qin, junior brother, you can ask me anything. I'll tell you everything, but you have to swear that after I finish speaking, you'll spare my life."

Qin Sang's eyes flashed, and he said faintly, "Senior Brother Sun, you don't seem to have the qualifications to negotiate with me. If you don't say anything, I'll kill you now! And you wouldn't think that there's no way in the Xianxia world to get you to talk, would you I want to see how hard your bones are!"

Before Sun De could speak, Qin Sang's face darkened slightly. His spiritual power surged in his palm as he grasped Sun De's primordial spirit, beginning to grind it relentlessly. He had already experienced the pain that came from a primordial spirit being tormented, and he didn't believe Sun De would be able to endure it.

Sun De indeed screamed repeatedly, the light ball growing dimmer and dimmer, finally transforming into a face that pleaded with Qin Sang again and again, appearing very pitiful.

"Brother Qin, stop! I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."

After being given a lesson, Qin Sang finally stopped, his eyes flashing with cold light as he stared at Sun De.

Sun De cautiously glanced at Qin Sang, "Junior Brother Qin guessed correctly, my origins are indeed related to the Kui Yin Sect. Let me ask you a question first, haven't you used the Yan Luo Banner for cultivation"

Qin Sang asked Sun De, "How did you realize I had the Yan Luo Banner"

He joined the Kui Yin Sect in You Shan Fang Market, and he already had the Yan Luo Banner. Even Yue Wu couldn't detect it.

“Qin's younger brother will never forget the heartworm in your primordial spirit, right”

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

Sun Degan laughed, seeing Qin Sang's displeased expression, he dared not keep him in suspense any longer. "Ancestor Kuiyin discovered some corpses of Heart-Eating Worms in a piece of millennium ice and created a method of poison worms, which can manipulate the corpses of Heart-Eating Worms to control others. This is no secret within the Kuiyin Sect."

To my knowledge, the bodies of the Heart Devourers are almost gone, all collected by the Sect Master, Ghostly Elder. Recently, he has only been willing to use them because he needs disciples to infiltrate the Yuanguang Sect.

That day, on Shaohua Mountain, I sensed the Heart-Devouring Worm within Qin's younger brother, so I guessed that he might have escaped from Yuanzhao Gate. The several trusted disciples sent by Old Ghost Yi to Yuanzhao Gate naturally needn't worry about betrayal. Only those disciples selected from Yin Sha淵 were untrustworthy and were controlled with the Heart-Devouring Worm. They must have the Yan Luo Banner on them.

I tested the waters a little, and sure enough, my junior brother Qin chose to be a lowly laborer in the gloomy abyss. I thought I had it all under control. But I didn't expect that Junior Brother Qin would actually resist the temptation of the Yama Banner and not use the Soul Pill for cultivation. For Junior Brother Qin to have this kind of willpower, I don't feel wronged about losing this time.

Hearing this, Qin Sang's doubts deepened, "What would happen if one cultivated with the Yan Luo Banner"

“He will become a sacrifice.” said Sun De Dao.

Every card played meant one less to rely on. Next time, Yin Changsheng would surely be prepared and his strategy would be ineffective....
