Chapter Sixty-Three: Hell's Retribution >
r a long time before making a bid. Among these talismans, the best quality one belongs to that Daoist priest's third-grade blue lotus.Just when Qin Sang was secretly worried, Gao Hui finally did not d...A ghost emerged from the boy's body, cackling wickedly. Liang Yan snorted coldly, sending a flag fluttering from his palm. The flag rippled in the wind, releasing waves of black qi that enveloped the ghost completely.
The phantom struggled violently within the black qi, but never managed to break free, ultimately being consumed by it.
Liang Yan put away the flags, waved his hand to unleash a burst of fire, and burned the corpses in the cave clean.
In the surrounding grottos, disciples who were cultivating were startled. They opened their grottos and walked out, witnessing the whole scene. After bowing to Liang Yan, they coldly glanced at Qin Sang and the others, then nonchalantly went back to their cultivation, as if they were used to such things.
In the desolate cave, there was only a heap of ashes, swirling up in the wind like smoke and scattering into the canyon. All that remained 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 random and begin your ascetic practice. Uncle Yue will open a dharma hall once a month at the end of each month to give lectures. If you have any questions about your cultivation, remember to ask Uncle Yue on that day."
All were silent, their eyes fixed on the dark cave dwellings. Could similar scenes have unfolded within them
Liang Yan smiled slightly and said, “What Scared of such a small scene If you don't want to die, remember what I just said. You must first suppress the King of Hell with your divine sense, make it completely submit, and then enter the Yin Sha Valley to absorb the Yin Sha Qi. The Yan Luo Banner is powerful, so you must suppress the greed in your hearts. When absorbing the Soul Pill, do it within your capacity, absolutely not giving the King of Hell a chance to break free. Otherwise, you will be backfired and even the gods can't save you. My former junior brother is a lesson from the past! Remember! Remember!”
Having said that, Liang Yan took off in his flying apparatus.
Qin Sang and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say. They each chose a cave dwelling. As Qin Sang was about to enter his cave, he suddenly heard Tan Jie's voice transmission, "Brother Qin, what do you think of the Yan Luo Banner"
Qin Sang's footsteps faltered, and she turned to see Tan Jie standing at the entrance of the cave dwelling, looking deeply worried.
Seeing Tan Jie's expression, Qin Sang knew he was probably frightened by the scene just now. She had already witnessed the horror of the King of Hell. If it wasn't for the Jade Buddha's protection, she would have been a meal in the King of Hell's belly long ago.

However, apart from the risk of retribution from Yama, Qin Sang hadn't discovered any other hidden dangers with the Yama Banner during his cultivation up to this point.

Thinking about this, Qin Sang sent a voice transmission to Tan: "Senior Brother Tan, according to Senior Brother Liang Yan, over a thousand disciples of the Kui Yin Sect have cultivated using the Yama Banner. The magical effects of the Yama Banner must have been verified long ago. However, the dangers of secret arts are too great. We must be more careful in the future."

Tan Jie nodded, didn't say much more, and walked into the cave with a heavy heart.
Closing the cave entrance, Qin Sang sat on the stone bed, wearing the Warm Sun Pearl. Without activating it with spiritual energy, the Warm Sun Pearl's warmth gradually drove away the chill in his body, but it couldn't dispel the coldness in Qin Sang's heart.
Listening to his words and seeing his actions, Liang Yan's unhesitating burning of the body and the indifferent expressions of others made Qin Sang realize that in the Quyin Sect, even the lives of the disciples were no different from ordinary people outside. They were all insignificant.
Perhaps, only by breaking through the foundation-building stage can one gain a certain status.
Qin Sang believed that with the Jade Buddha's protection, he wouldn't fear retribution from the King of Hell. It shouldn't be difficult for him to stand out among his fellow disciples, but Qin Sang was more afraid of being found out.
Master Yue, although he said not to kill each other, but what if the one killing and robbing is a cultivator at the Qi-building stage
The cave dwelling was still so simple.
Qin Sang, who was meditating cross-legged on a meditation cushion, suddenly opened his eyes. He quietly pushed open the stone door of his cave abode and glimpsed a slender figure flashing in the mist of Yin Sha Abyss. From the back alone, he could tell it was Shi Jian, his senior sister who had entered with him.
Qin Sang had already been at Quyin Sect for a month. At the end of last month, Master Yue gave a Dharma lecture. Qin Sang asked Master Yue about his many doubts over the years and finally understood why his bottleneck was sometimes present and sometimes absent.
Originally, for cultivators, every breakthrough of a realm is a threshold. If one's aptitude is insufficient, being stuck for ten or eight years unable to break through is also normal.
However, during the third, sixth, and ninth layers of the Qi Refining period, there will be slight transformations in both the physical body and the soul consciousness. As a result, the bottleneck becomes even more solid, making it significantly harder to break through the threshold.
These three checkpoints were harder and harder to break through, and the soul pill not only sped up cultivation but also helped with breakthroughs, so Qin Sang had been progressing so smoothly.
Of course, the difficulty of breaking through these small bottlenecks is incomparable to that of the foundation-building and alchemy stages.
Among cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, only one out of ten successfully break through to the Foundation Establishment stage. This is assuming they can smoothly reach the tenth level of the Qi Refining stage, because not everyone has the opportunity to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill.
The Foundation Pill is a elixir that helps break through the Foundation Establishment bottleneck, increasing the chances of success.
If one has exceptional talent, such as possessing a single spiritual root, they naturally wouldn't need a Foundation Establishment Pill. But for most cultivators, the slight increase in possibility that the Foundation Establishment Pill offers is invaluable.
Nowadays, the spiritual energy in the cultivation world is scarce, and spirit herbs are rare. Those ancient elixirs that were not inferior to the Foundation Establishment Pill are now impossible to refine because of the lack of spirit herbs. Even the formulas have been lost.

Therefore, even the disciples of cultivating immortal sects do not all get a Foundation Establishment Pill.
It is already difficult to break through the foundation-building stage, and even fewer cultivators successfully form alchemy. In the entire Ku Yin Sect, there are only three Golden Core masters.
Cultivation is truly like thousands upon thousands of troops crossing a solitary bridge.

After learning all of this, Qin Sang fell into despair for several days. Even if he could miraculously break through to the Qi Refining stage and miraculously cultivate the Qi Refining stage to its peak before his deadline, he would almost have no hope of forming a Golden Core.
To think of the boast I made before the Long Princess, how ridiculous it is now.
But Qin Sang soon rallied. Only someone who has died once knows the horror of death and the beauty of life. So, with all their might, they will live to the fullest. Even if they cannot escape death, they will die without regret.
This past month, he endured without entering the Yin Sha Abyss to absorb Yin Sha Qi. Having exhausted all the remaining Soul Pills from before, he first cultivated incantations and waited a full month until the first person who subdued the King of Hell and entered the Yin Sha Abyss arrived: Shi Jing.
Shi Jing is a dual spiritual root of gold and wood. Her talent was the best among the seven people who entered together. It's not surprising that she was the first to suppress Yan Wang.
After waiting in his cave abode for a while, Qin Sang took out the protective amulet against evil spirits and activated it with spiritual power, covering himself before jumping into the Yin Sha Abyss.
Besides dispelling evil, the talismans also assist in flying. Coupled with his flight technique, Qin Sang’s body floated like a fallen leaf, slowly descending downwards.
The deeper one ventured into the Yin Sha Abyss, the more pervasive and oppressive the miasma became. It grew ever darker and colder until finally, all that remained was a pitch-black void, like swirling black clouds churning relentlessly within the abyss. Within the howling yin wind, faint ghostly cries could be heard, as if countless demons from the depths were attempting to break into the mortal realm and wreak havoc upon humankind.
