Chapter 1529: Eight Views
picuous within the confines. Qin Sang noticed it keenly.Someone is ahead!This is the first person they encountered after entering Zhǐtiānfēng."Continue!"Jing Po said it calmly, with no intention of le...'Whoosh! Whoosh!'
Everyone flew out of the small island, intercepting them ahead. They came to an open sea surface and suspended in mid-air, beginning to get busy.
The purple-robed elder reached into his waist and pulled out a jade plaque the size of a palm.
The jade pendant was milky white, smooth on the surface and flawless inside. There were no patterns or inscriptions on it, making it appear ordinary.
In the silence, the jade pendant left the purple-robed elder's palm and hovered before him.
Then, the old man's purple robe swelled slightly, and purple light diffused, revealing a myriad of mysterious thunder patterns. It seemed to be woven entirely from strands of lightning.
There was a rumble of thunder in the distance.

Suddenly, purple lightning madly surged towards the old man's right arm.
The old man tapped the jade plaque rapidly with his horse-hoof fingers. Purple lightning gathered between his fingers, forming a point of light so intense it seemed to be burning. Then, using his hand as a brush and purple lightning as ink, he wrote with swift strokes, completing the inscription in one go.
>
These tiny runes, within them lie the responses of cloud and thunder, stars in alignment, changing endlessly.
"Whoosh!"
The runes sank into the jade pendant.
In an instant, the jade pendant glowed with purple light, no longer ordinary. It resembled a thunderbolt born from heaven and earth, absorbing endless purple lightning, containing terrifying power, yet held in check.
Meanwhile, others spread out around the elder, each taking their position and drawing out an identical golden sword.
The golden sword was only the length of a palm, forged from dark gold.
They obviously came from the same school. Their initial sword techniques were identical, employing the same sword art.
"Draw your swords!"
When the sword techniques were perfected, everyone shouted in unison.
Qi surged, the golden sword clanged sharply, it suddenly reversed its blade, pointing at the purple jade plaque in the middle. The blade trembled slightly, carrying a peculiar rhythm.
At that time, the old man in purple robes appeared above the jade plaque at an unknown moment, sitting cross-legged in mid-air, muttering words.
For a moment, sword qi and purple lightning responded to each other, two completely different forces, yet harmoniously combined into an array, commanding the four directions.
This is precisely one of the famed large formations of the Zhongzhou Daoist School - the Jianyu Lei Yin Formation!
At this moment, the spirit array remained dormant.
The golden sword vanished into thin air at an unknown time, and so did the others. They had used a formation to conceal themselves, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.
In the void, only the purple-robed elder and the amethyst thunder plaque beneath him remained. The purple light flowed, sometimes transforming into a thunderball, sometimes changing back into the shape of the jade plaque, but the fluctuation was suppressed to a minimum.

At this moment, the elder's attention was not on the Zijin Jade Plaque.
His right arm gathered purple lightning, while his left hand rested on his knee, palm facing heaven. At some point, a golden orb appeared in his palm, engraved with the Buddhist vajra pattern.
When everything was ready, the old man in purple heard a thunderous roar from the depths of the storm. The sound was faint and far away.
They also knew little about the beasts.
Even if all the masters within the door were present, possessing two top-tier formations and having a retreat prepared, they would still not dare to relax even slightly.
The old man in purple robes had never heard such a strange roar before, indicating that it was a new beast they had never encountered. He didn't dare to take it lightly.
>
The growls grew closer, lured by the bait, the beast was approaching.
To his surprise, the old man in purple robes soon felt something was amiss. The beast's roar seemed to be coming from a different direction, gradually fading into the distance.
Others also noticed the abnormality. A long-bearded Taoist appeared out of thin air, gazing into the distance. His mind flashed with inspiration, and he said, "Although this bait was hard-won by us, its attractiveness to the beast is limited. It's definitely not as effective as fresh blood or a Nascent Soul... There might be a Nascent Soul cultivator nearby! We've waited so long for a beast like this; if we let that person lead it close to the barrier and scare it away, all our efforts will be in vain. The higher the realm, the stronger the attraction to the beast. We should split up and lure the beast back."
"Greetings, fellow traveler"
The old man in purple robes moved slightly, and was about to get up.
The long-bearded Taoist flashed before the old man, “I’ll go, I must sit at the heart of the formation. Though my cultivation is not as deep as yours, I have spent more time researching escape techniques.”

The purple-robed elder pondered for a moment, “Very well, junior brother, be careful. This isn’t a top secret matter, just scare that person away, hunting down the criminal is the priority.”
The Daoist with a long beard nodded slightly, his body transforming into a cyan rainbow and disappearing into the air. The golden sword he held was then taken care of by someone beside him.
That time.
Qin Sang was flying at full speed towards Zhongzhou.
The ferocious beast sensed something it greatly disliked ahead. Instinct made the beast unwilling to approach, but because of hunger, it couldn't bear to part with the blood meal in front of it.
The ferocious beast's nature is frenzied, it does not consider gain or loss, acting purely on instinct.
The closer they got to the Central Plains, the more agitated and restless the ferocious beasts became, pacing back and forth restlessly.

From its roar, Qin Sang could hear the clues, further confirming his previous deductions.
>
The barrier of the immortal cultivation world has the effect of dispersing ferocious beasts!
No wonder I've never heard of a beast attack in the North Sea. Without the barrier's protection, even if humans could adapt to the storm belt, they would have likely been swallowed by the beasts long ago.
He needn't risk taking a chance for freedom.
Even with the strength of a rhinoceros' horn and the moon's guidance, being swept into a hurricane would be extremely dangerous.

It seems that getting close to the barrier will scare away the beast.
Qin Sang's heart calmed slightly, but she wouldn't truly relax, constantly paying attention to the movements of the beast.
As Qin Sang had anticipated, as he drew closer to Zhongzhou, the ferocious beasts not only roared with increasing agitation, but their movements also became erratic, alternating between bursts of speed and sluggishness, as if two opposing instincts were battling within them.
Qin Sang ignored the ferocious beasts, charging ahead with all his might.
Just then.
Suddenly, a deafening explosion shook the rear.
The ferocious beast let out a deafening, unprecedented roar.
The roar drowned out the storm, as if a bolt of lightning had struck Qin Sang on top of his head.

Immediately afterward, Qin Sang felt a powerful energy surge behind him. It materialized out of thin air, brewing at an astonishing pace.
In an instant, the chaotic celestial energy reached its peak and was stirred.

At this moment, the beast was still some distance away from him, but Qin Sang's feeling was very clear, the beast had indeed stirred the energy of heaven and earth!
This is a divine ability only possessed by cultivators of the Nascent Soul stage.
When a cultivator breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, they can begin to harness the energy of heaven and earth.
This is a true transformation, taking another step closer to the Heavenly Dao.
Thoughts united, summoning wind and rain, comparable to divine spirits.
It is widely rumored that "Earth Immortals" refer to cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage. Even though a Core Formation cultivator's magical powers are formidable, they are still far inferior.
"Nascent Soul Beast!"

Qin Sang, although having guessed beforehand, was still astonished by the changes in Heavenly Mechanisms.
Actually, manipulating the vital energy of heaven and earth is not just a mark of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
When the ferocious beast strikes, it causes a shift in the primal energy of heaven and earth, as if invoking a trace of heavenly might.
Though so far away, Qin Sang still felt a sense of impending doom, as if there was nowhere for him to hide in this world.
This feeling wasn't very pronounced, far from being ostracized and suppressed by heaven and earth, but that inexplicable sense of pressure was definitely real.
A cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage has yet to reach their full potential and can only manipulate the energy of heaven and earth, not truly control it. They can only utilize a small fraction of its power.
>
Of course, compared to a Yuan Ying cultivator, it's simply worlds apart.
Even a late Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, wielding top-tier divine powers and artifacts, if lacking means to resist the pressure, would naturally be inferior when facing a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator. Producing an illusion of defiance against heaven, they would feel intimidated before even engaging in battle.
This is the difference in realm!
>
This ferocious beast was the strongest enemy Qin Sang had ever encountered in his life!
The Qisha Hall Demon Lord's original realm was certainly higher than that of the ferocious beast, but Qin Sang had no qualifications to face the Demon Lord.
Although the Demon Lord's separated soul was powerful, overpowering all cultivators, he only managed to win with great difficulty after Qingzhu sacrificed himself. However, when he made his move, Qin Sang didn't feel this way now, indicating that he hadn't exceeded the Nascent Soul stage.

Before, Qin Sang tried his best to overestimate the ferocity of the beast. Now it seems he was still too optimistic.
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If not for the barrier of the cultivation world that kept ferocious beasts at bay, he might have had no other choice right now. No matter how dangerous the place was that could help him escape, he could only close his eyes and jump in.
"Wow!"
A thick stench of blood rose from the heart of the storm.
Qin Sang's feeling of threat came precisely from this.
The surrounding world was dyed crimson by the blood, and below it had become a sea of blood. Blood waves rose and fell, monstrous beasts were completely scarlet, floating in the sea of blood.
...It is impossible to discern the full form of the beast.
The beast's exposed body was marked with four blood holes, which were actually four gigantic eyes. They were arranged randomly and relentlessly fixated on Qin Sang's fleeing direction, their madness laced with a ravenous hunger.
Its skin was incredibly smooth, lacking scales. It felt slimy, with a thick, viscous blood seeming to ooze out constantly. The stench was atrocious and utterly unnerving.
The conflict of two instincts drove the ferocious beast to desperation.
In a roar, the beast's speed surged, plowing a bottomless trench in the sea. Then, its four giant eyes simultaneously shot out blood-red beams of light, converging ahead into a beam that exploded outwards!
Suddenly, a blood-colored corridor tore through the void, connecting the ferocious beast and Qin Sang. However, as the crimson light reached its end, it thinned considerably.
Threat is approaching.

Qin Sang felt a sudden change and quickly turned her head, her eyes met with a sea of crimson.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A foul stench hit me, making me nauseous.
>
Even across such a vast distance, the presence of the blood light was still incredibly awe-inspiring.
Qin Sang glanced hastily, driving his escape art to its peak.
>
But the blood light seemed to have a spirit of its own, relentlessly pursuing him like a bone disease, and it was even faster than he was.
In a moment.
A surge of blood light, like a raging tide, surged forth, like rolling thunder. Even though Qin Sang, transformed into lightning, was incredibly fast and traversed numerous storms, he could not escape the fate of being engulfed by the blood light.
'Whoosh!'
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Qin Sang.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
An avatar materialized instantly, and a prepared spell was cast from their hand.
A chill shot into the void behind Qin Sang, condensing into a cluster that instantly transformed into a heavy sheet of ice mirror.
A deafening explosion, a mingling of blood and frost, the sound of shattering, Qin Sang and his avatar shuddered simultaneously, followed by smiles on their faces.
The power of the blood moon wasn't as terrifying as it looked. It was probably weakened by the storm and had reached its final stage.
Of course, the strike of a Nascent Soul stage fierce beast was no small feat. Its aftereffects were formidable, and in the end, the ice mirror shattered.
Qin Sang had long since activated the Ruyi Orb, forming a protective barrier around himself.
Only a deafening roar was heard, as the golden energy shield burst forth and collided with the menacing light. A blood-red and golden sun exploded, propelling Qin Sang's body like a launched arrow towards the sea surface.
Although he seemed disheveled, Qin Sang was unharmed, not even using the demon fire or the sun god tree. The blood light had a sense of outward strength but inward weakness.
>
Unexpectedly, before Qin Sang could rejoice, a sudden change occurred.
The blood glow, which had been dissipating, suddenly appeared as a whirlpool. And at the center of that whirlpool was Qin Sang.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang's expression faltered. The ferocious beast actually had a hidden trick up its sleeve, knowing how to deceive and conceal its true killing move.
Little did they know, even though the beast was ferocious and wild, instinct would drive it to make the right choice. Perhaps it had accidentally used this ambush tactic before, successfully killing its prey, and that experience was imprinted into the beast's instinct.
'Wow!'
A blood-colored vortex formed at lightning speed, the space itself seeming to warp and twist, as if intent on grinding Qin Sang into a bloody paste.
The change came suddenly, trapped by the vortex, Qin Sang dared not use the Sun God Tree to blast a path out, otherwise he would also be affected.
He remained calm in the face of danger.
>
Because the previous judgment was correct, the storm's divination was chaotic. The ferocious beast launching an attack from such a distance wasn't enough to put him in a position of waiting for death.
The Huǒlián spun out from Qin Sang's brow, merging with the demonic fire within the Móbān. After years of refinement, the 《Hòsèng Jīnlián》 reached a new level, and Qin Sang controlled even more demonic fire through the Huǒlián.
>
At the same time, the avatar also took over the Golden Sinking Sword from the main body and slashed out a hundred-zhang sword qi.
The Blazing Fire Dragon plunged headfirst into the vortex. Its body, composed of flames, twisted and writhed as if being torn apart by the bloody maelstrom.
Fortunately, the demonic fire was formless. Even if it were torn apart, it could regroup without hesitation, charging into the vortex.
Huashan's attack was deliberately half a beat slower, his sword energy following closely behind the demonic fire, slashing into the gap torn open by the flames.
With the combined strength of their main body and avatar, Qin Sang exerted every ounce of his power, unleashing divine abilities one after another, desperately resisting the vortex's pull and surging outwards.
The beast sensed the prey was about to get out of control and roared in fury.
It is now.
The long-bearded Taoist priest was following the roar and hurrying this way.
“Huh That person got caught by a wild beast”
The long-bearded Taoist heard the roar of the ferocious beast and felt a change in his demeanor. His speed increased by a few points, but his breath was still suppressed to the minimum.
Approaching the battlefield at high speed.
The long-bearded Taoist finally saw the streak of crimson light cutting through the storm, although he couldn't yet make out the two parties involved, he could still feel the power of the bloodlight, and muttered, "Sure enough, another demonic beast in the Nascent Soul stage. This fellow's cultivation is not yet in the late stage, I'm afraid he's in for a lot of trouble..."
Staying at a distance, the long-bearded Taoist waited calmly for a while. He then heard the ferocious beast roar angrily and in frustration. With a soft sigh, he chuckled, "Seems like it escaped. Quite skillful! But we can't let the beast get any closer to the cultivation world; otherwise, it might be frightened and run away again. Otherwise, I'll definitely make you face it once more and test its powers."
With a light stroke of his long beard, the Daoist with the long beard raised his hand, drawing symbols in mid-air. He then pointed his finger, and the talisman transformed into a sword, shooting towards the end of the blood glow.

At the same time, the Taoist with a long beard deliberately approached the ferocious beast and released his own aura.
The ferocious beast roared with surprise.
It sensed new prey, more alluring than before, and further from the stench it loathed and feared.
Without hesitation, the ferocious beast abandoned Qin Sang and turned to pounce on the Taoist with the long beard.
This is the translated text:
Even the Taoist with a long beard dared not get too close to the ferocious beast, so he turned and ran away.

Qin Sang carried his incarnation and rushed out of the whirlpool. He was about to continue fleeing when he discovered that the ferocious beast actually turned around and left. He couldn't help but be secretly puzzled, as he hadn't expected the beast to give up so easily.
Just then.
Suddenly, a blue light flew over.
“Sword Talisman! There's someone nearby!”
Qin Sang's pupils constricted, a jolt of alarm coursing through him. He immediately recalled the demonic flames.
The sword talisman hung in mid-air, its blue light flickering.
An undeniable voice emanated from it.
"Those who have no business here, please leave quickly. Do not say that I did not warn you!"
