Chapter 1821: Five Elements Crown
within, no weaker than Yuan Ying cultivators. Without a safe route, this old Daoist wouldn't dare bring Brother Qin in here to meet his end.”"It's impossible to be such a coincidence, that nascent sou...According to Qin Sang's understanding of the Qinghu Saint King, this demon fox, although cruel and ruthless, shouldn't attack Mo Xingdao without reason.
They had once worked together to break into the ruins of the past. Even though the Azure Fox Saint King didn't remember their shared hardship, he understood the balance of gains and losses.
Now Mo Xingdao is under someone else's control. Saving Mo Xingdao would allow us to gain a reliable ally. Keeping him alive is more useful than killing him.
Mo Xindao was so flustered, as if he had encountered a formidable enemy.
Did the two meet and form a grudge at the Ruins of Return, or does Mo Xingdao possess something the Azure Fox Saint King desperately seeks
Qin Sang calmly analyzed, believing there must be something hidden. He pressured the Azure Bird, waiting to see how Mo Xingdao would explain himself.
He did have a grudge against the Qinghu Saint King, but he wouldn't lose his reason because of it and jeopardize important matters. He certainly didn't want to be used by others.
Held in Qin Sang's grasp, the blue bird stiffened completely, its wings flapping a few times before becoming immobile in his palm. The panic in its gem-like eyes subsided, replaced by a flicker of calm.
After a moment of silence, he said, "The Five Elements Robe..."
Only after listening to Mo Xingdao's detailed account did Qin Sang learn the true events of that year.
When communicating with Qin Sang before, Mo Xingdao did not deceive Qin Sang, but he used euphemisms and allusions, prevaricating about his coma and concealing many details.
Back then, they encountered a cataclysm. The Wise Light Saint vanished without a trace, and he and the Azure Fox Saint King were cast into this realm.
Their arrival caused upheaval in the depths of the political arena, and illusions were thrown into chaos. The two were nearing their limits,隨時可能隕落. The Qinghu Saint King wanted to use Mo Xingdao as a stepping stone, but Mo Xingdao was alerted beforehand and fought back.
However, Mo Xingdao ultimately couldn't escape danger. He wasn't lying about being in a coma before, and when his oil ran out, he was caught in a turbulent current, losing consciousness. When he woke up, he was outside the treatment platform, saved by Hongyuzi.
Whether the Azure Fox Saint King was dead or alive, Mo Xingdao wasn't sure, but under those circumstances, it was certainly dangerous.
>
Hongyuzi, using the power of Daoting, searched for the Qinghu Shengwang but found nothing. He even mistakenly identified Qin Sang's ascension tribulation as Qinghu Shengwang at one point.
Only after meeting Qin Sang did I learn the truth.
For over a hundred years, there had been no trace of the Qinghu Saint King in the Guifang Kingdom. Mo Xindao only thought she had perished.
Their animosity was just one factor.
And arriving in this world with them was the Five Elements Crown. During their coma, Mo Xingdao witnessed the Five Elements Crown being drawn into a phantom vision.
Mo Xingdao deliberately concealed it, intending to wait until Qin Sang helped him escape before secretly taking this once-renowned first spiritual treasure of Zhongzhou.
Only upon arriving in this realm did I learn that above the Lingbao, there are acquired Lingbao. The Five Elements Crown was born with a nascent spirit ahead of time, and once it successfully crosses the tribulation, it will become a true acquired Lingbao.
Hong Yu's status as a dignified Daoist official of the fourth rank, possessing only one spiritual treasure, demonstrates just how precious such treasures are. Mo Xing's heart moved with desire, and it's certain that the Azure Fox Holy King would also be captivated by it.
Mo Xingdao guessed that the Qinghu Saint King had come to him to investigate the whereabouts of the Five Elements Crown and seek revenge.
Based on Mo Xingdao's understanding of the Fox Saint King, if he were to fall into the Fox Saint King's hands, he would surely be worse off than dead. The consequences would be unimaginable. It would be better to follow Hong Yuzi instead.
"As for concealing the Five Elements Crown from you, Daoist friend, it was my fault. But everything I said before was true, and I never had any ill intentions towards you. Daoist friend, you helped me through this tribulation, and I promise to do everything in my power to help you obtain the Five Elements Crown..." The sound of the bird grew fainter.
Qin Sang snorted coldly. Mo Xingdao treated him as a life-saving straw and would never reveal the location of the Five Elements Crown under any circumstances.
The Five-Element Crown is still secondary.
If one wants to seek the path of ascension, they must choose between Mo Xingdao and Qinghu Saint King to ally with.
He had a long-standing grudge against the Fox Saint King, and even if Qin Sang could put the greater good first and swallow his anger, he still had to be wary of the Fox Saint King betraying him at any time.
It's not possible to just let the Qinghu Saint King get the Five Elements Crown.
Comparatively, Mo Xingdao is easier to control.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Sang zipped through the mirage and quickly approached the battlefield. He learned about the situation from Mo Xindao and constantly pondered countermeasures.
Qinghu Shengwang broke through to the middle stage of Huashen, Qin Sang was not surprised.
This demon should have already passed through a Heavenly Tribulation of Ascension.
Qin Sang was an eyewitness and knew how much benefit the Ascension Tribulation could bring to cultivators.
Over the years Qin Sang spent in seclusion, he devoted most of his time to cultivating the Sky Demon Refining Form Art. Although he only spent half the time cultivating the Divine Spirit Sword Raising Chapter, he still made astonishing progress.
It is precisely because of the combined blessing of the poison skill and the ascension tribulation.
Once he completes the true Venerable's agreement and accumulates enough insights on the killing path, it won't be long before he breaks through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
After the Qinghu Saint King's ascension to godhood, he stayed in the Storm Realm for many years, honing his cultivation and weathering the Heavenly Tribulation of Ascension. His rapid advancement in a short period is perfectly normal.
Besides the Qinghu Saint King, there is also a powerful monster cultivator in the late stage of Hualing.
Although both sides seemed to have an equal number of people, Mo Xingdao's strength was inferior to Qinghu Shengwang's. Furthermore, the opponent launched a surprise attack, putting Mo Xingdao's side at a clear disadvantage.
However, wanting to defeat Hong Yuzi wouldn't be easy either, which presented Qin Sang with an opportunity.
“Two late Nascent Soul experts, one old enemy, it is indeed a good opportunity to feel the Dao of killing…”
Qin Sang muttered to herself, her eyes flashing coldly.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Before the killing comes.
Mo Xingdao and Hong Yuzi were oblivious to the approaching enemy, focusing all their attention on the dangers within the phantasmagoria.
Guided by Mo Xingdao, he moved closer to Qin Sang's direction, his heart pounding with increasing anxiety.
"Huh It doesn't seem like a good path ahead..."
Hong Yuzi suddenly stopped.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Mo Xingdao was slightly surprised, he gazed intently, and saw in front of him a long strip of azure silk.
A howling sound echoed, it was a blue wind forming a wall across the road.
This wind was peculiar, decidedly no ordinary wind. But Mo Xingdao couldn't see anything unusual within the spiritual wind; he knew his eyesight paled in comparison to Hong Yuzi's, so he opened his mouth to ask.
Hong Yuzi's face was thoughtful, he stared for a long time, gently waved his dust-cloth and said: "Go in and you will know!"
As she spoke, the dust whisk in Hongyuzi's hand shimmered with a faint light, and the motes of light rained down, gathering at her feet into a large platform of light that lifted Mo Xindao along with it and flew towards Lingfeng.
'Snooze...'
>
The wind howled.
Everything around was a hazy green, making it difficult to discern direction.
This wind seemed to be able to sap one's very soul and marrow, sweeping away everything in the world.
The surface of the light platform shimmered, forming an inverted light shield that blocked Ling Feng outside.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this moment, Hong Yuzi suddenly shifted in expression.
Mo Xindao also heard it, and in the wind there seemed to be a strange sound.
The next moment, the spiritual wind around them darkened in several places, and then it transformed into a human figure.
These figures towered over a zhang in height, with long limbs, and they lunged toward them with outstretched, slender arms amidst strange shrieks.
Hong Yuzi reacted with lightning speed. With a flick of his wrist, he swept his duster, and a beam of light shot out.
'Whoosh!'
Their movements were unrestrained, every figure being swept by the arc of light, striking them right in the chest.
Then a bizarre scene unfolded. The arcs of light pierced through the figures, as if erasing their chests, leaving behind blank spaces. Their bodies were cut in half, yet they seemed unaffected, still madly charging towards the platform of light.
>
The fastest figure had even passed through the light barrier of the light platform, unimpeded, instantly approaching.
These figures seem to be wallowing in this place, like evil spirits eager to possess.

Both of them turned pale.

Mo Xingdao's whole body burst forth with black light, his entire person seemed to be wrapped in a cocoon of light. His bones cracked like thunder inside his body, he raised his fists and slammed them fiercely towards the nearest figure.
Hong Yuzi's eyes flashed, and he immediately struck out a divine rune. The rune's shadow vanished in an instant, but even a fleeting glance could reveal the complexity of its form.
The shadow transformed into ten iron shackles, each one gleaming as it enveloped every figure.
In an instant, everyone was clad in shackles, powerless to resist.
Mo Xingdao immediately retracted his fists upon seeing this. Hong Yuzi gently beckoned with his hand, summoning a figure before him. Just as he was about to examine it, the figure vanished into wind and smoke.
>
The change happened in the blink of an eye. Hong Yuzi couldn't stop it in time, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other iron shackles, all empty.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this moment, the wind howled even louder, and in a flash, more figures appeared, multiplying their number several times over!
"Whoosh!"
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
Crowds of people surged forward.
These monsters can't be killed or imprisoned, and some defensive measures are ineffective against them. They are extremely bizarre, Hong Yazi felt very tricky, and shouted: "Quick! Leave!"
The two immediately quickened their pace, rushing towards the opposite bank.
The Iron Shackle Talismans continuously divided and multiplied, but there would eventually be an end. As one batch of figures vanished into the wind, more were born to take their place.
Soon, the two were surrounded by a dense crowd of people. Hong Yuzi's expression also became extremely serious.
Divine powers emerged one after another, with various divine talismans manifesting continuously.
Whoosh!
>
Another divine rune appeared.
A sliver of lightning, silver in color, erupted from the talisman.
This was not a real lightning bolt, but a silver chain, as snakelike it sprang up suddenly, piercing through the brow of a figure in an instant.
Then, a silver snake darted through the crowd at high speed. Everyone's figure was pierced in the center of their eyebrows by long chains, linking them together.
"Wow!"
Figures dispersed in all directions, and the surroundings became instantly quiet.
This cannot fundamentally change the situation, and the winds of change are swirling all around. More figures appear, like a surging tide.
However, Hong Yizi knew how to deal with it. His eyes sank slightly, his mind moved subtly, and a dharma platform slowly flew out.
Let me know if you'd like to translate more text!
He actually summoned a talismán altar here.
'
Boom!
'
The doors to the celestial realm creaked open, and hordes of demonic soldiers marched forth.
Eight gates were opened, five of them, with five squads of demon soldiers marching in strict discipline. Each squad consisted of the same type of demon beast, and the five squads represented the five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Water has water serpents, earth has earth fiends, wood has tree demons, fire has fire phoenixes, and metal has golden-eyed leopards.
Five elemental demon soldiers, arrayed in a formidable formation, with the golden-eyed leopard as their core. Among them were powerful demons who could transform into human form.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The leader of the Golden-Eyed Leopard clan was a burly strong man, holding a banner in his hand. His eyes were golden and piercing, fierce and terrifying, clearly a powerful demon of the Great Demon King level!
This demon was also the leader of the demon soldiers. He opened his mouth wide, and his roar was like thunder. He suddenly shook the treasure flag in his hand.
The soldiers obeyed the command and unleashed five-element flames, blasting them into the sky.

Hong Yu's lips moved silently, his feet treading complex steps, hand seals shifting rapidly, and above him, runes appeared out of thin air.
The runes were dense and twisted, looking very much like the chains from before, as if they were written with chains themselves.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He is now displaying the same type of talismans as the one he used earlier.
With the help of troops, casting talismans was far easier and quicker than doing it alone. Once the talismans were completed, they could protect them as they charged out of the Spirit Wind.
"Wow!"
Flames shot into the sky.
As the talisman was about to be completed, a sudden burst of laughter erupted around him. "Old Bull Nose, this Marquis has finally waited for you! Hahahaha..."
Laughter, like a demonic melody, throbbed with boundless frenzy, right near them.
The next moment, a shocking aura suddenly erupted from the back of the crowd. Xia Hou instantly broke through the throng and surged forward.
He and the Qingfei used some method, they actually concealed themselves in the wind, waiting for Hongyuzi to be forced to send out his troops before making their move!
Upon seeing Xia Hou, Hong Yuzi's face changed drastically.
>
Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!
How could there be a demon marquis ambush here!
Before Xiahou could even think about the reason, he leaped through the air, a black and white glow erupting from behind him.
Light flickered and transformed into a divine deer.
The deer's body was half black and half white, and its antlers were the same.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This stag was magnificent and imposing, radiating an awe-inspiring aura. Its deep eyes gazed upon the talisman platform, causing all the soldiers to freeze in their tracks. Even the leader of the demonic army wore a look of astonishment.
"Buddha's Form!"
Hongyu was startled.
The Five Symbols Formation is comparable to the Taoist techniques of a Great True Person. Only monstrous cultivators comparable to Great True Persons can comprehend the Dharma Form, but it is rumored that some prodigiously gifted individuals comprehend the Dharma Form in the later stages of the Profound Void realm, possessing extraordinary strength.
But such a genius is rare, like a phoenix feather among thousands of scales. He actually encountered one.
After the shock, Hong Huzi quickly saw that the Divine Deer was not a true Dharma manifestation, but it still gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.
Xiahou leaped forward, the divine deer reared up with its powerful hooves and let out a deafening roar. It charged into battle, like a torrent of light, capable of toppling mountains and leveling hills.
Hong Yuzi did not dare to hesitate, and spat out a round bead.
The ball of light shone brightly, radiating a dazzling glow. It rose slowly into the sky. This treasure was the spiritual treasure of Hong Yizi and was called the Jiuhui Pearl.
The size of the nine-turn pearl was only comparable to a single pearl, yet it seemed to possess the power of ten thousand jun. It shot forward at a speed faster than that of a giant deer.
Just then, another change occurred.
Above the sky, a halo suddenly appeared, plummeting at high speed. It landed perfectly on Jiuhui Zhu and shrunk rapidly.
The aperture was slender and remarkably resilient. Even when Jiuhua Zhu struck it with force, the aperture did not break.
However, the aperture's brilliance dimmed considerably, forced to cease its contraction and losing its binding power.
Even if the aperture can't contain Jiuhui, a momentary delay is enough to be fatal!
"Roar!"
A deafening roar shook the very souls of every demon soldier.
The figures were about to finish their formation, but before they could change their positions, the divine deer had already charged towards them.
The demon army leader’s face was grim, and he forcefully waved his precious flag. The five-colored flames coalesced into a single stream, twisting their heads fiercely towards the divine deer.
All the demon soldiers roared in unison, quickly changing their formation.
>
But in such a hasty response, how could it possibly rival the divine deer
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
With a earth-shattering roar, the divine deer rammed into the flames. Its antlers, like blades, pierced through the layers of light, scattering countless streaks of brilliance in an instant.
Shrieks echoed throughout the battlefield.
The terrifying aftershock force caused many demon soldiers to spit blood, stagger and fall, their formation collapsing into disarray.
The demon army leader glared at the imposing stag, his eyes bulging. All the other demons could retreat, but he couldn't!
Otherwise, the demon soldiers behind will be slaughtered.
These demon soldiers were the culmination of Hong Yu's countless efforts, carefully selected and even related to his Dao.
>
The demonic soldiers were slaughtered, suffering a consequence far graver than that inflicted upon Bi Hongyu himself.
The demon army leader roared toward the heavens, transforming into a golden-eyed flower leopard. He gathered the remaining soldiers' strength and, fearless of death, charged back at the divine deer.
>
“How dare you!”
Hong Yuzi's anger reached its peak. He roared, his sleeves flailing wildly as he hurled a yellow scroll into the air.
Everything happened too quickly. Mo Xingdao was still in confusion, he thought Qin Sang had been secretly making arrangements, but soon realized something was wrong.
At the same time, Mo Xingdao's heart pounded inexplicably, he suddenly looked up and saw a familiar alluring face and those dangerous eyes.
(The end)have really come to a head, they can only try testing the monster's strength. The only consolation is that they encountered the monster near the shelter; encountering it halfway would be a much bigger...
