Chapter 1842: Army Presses the Border
e chance to react. There's no need to be afraid.”The Cloud Wanderer grunted, "Brother Qin is right, it's best for him to lead honestly and peacefully. If he dares to have any ulterior motives, I'll gi...Remembering the Chijin Spirit Needle and the nearby mirages, Qin Sang tried to piece together some clues, but found nothing. He stopped wasting his energy.
After cultivating for a period of time, Qin Sang awoke from his meditation and, after a moment's thought, summoned the talisman platform.
Within the talismanic altar, the divine lightning seal manifested from the true form of the talismans slowly rotated, already taking on a solid appearance.
As thoughts churned, the glyph bearing the secrets of the Five Thunder Talismans appeared in his mind, decomposing into a formless essence ready to be refined within the talisman array.

However, after all this time cultivating, the Thunder Turtle Demon Dan used to refine the talismans has almost run out of power.
Qin Sang had never been able to hunt down the thunder beast.
Although there are frequent auctions and trading fairs, high-quality thunder attribute spirit items that meet his requirements are extremely rare. Even if they appear, they most likely end up in the hands of real cultivators from the Lei Ting Fu, leaving none for these casual cultivators.
The scriptures pertaining to talismanry, including those from Fuzhuang, Dao Ting, and the Thunderbolt Left and Right Offices, all flowed through Qin Sang's mind one by one.
As the sages have explained, comprehending the symbols and forms is not difficult. Qin Sang quickly understood this and silently urged his dharma form.
The qingluan dharma form and phoenix wings simultaneously appeared, bathing the cave in a blue glow.
Next, Qin Sang prepared to use the Qingluan Dharma Appearance to activate the Qingluan primordial thunder power within Fenghui and forge an altar!
Long ago, Qin Sang had this idea. Every time he explored the Altar of Governance, Qin Sang would take the opportunity to deepen his understanding of Dharma Appearance and Phoenix Wings, and make attempts.
After repeated attempts, Qin Sang now has a good grasp that he can draw out a trace of the original thunder force from Fenghui.
The only issue is whether the lu altar can withstand the thunder force of the Qingluan's origin.
The spiritual being's rank is too high and its power is too great, which may backfire on the spirit aperture, causing the talisman to become chaotic and the altar to be destroyed. This happened during the initiation ceremony in the past.
Qin Sang didn't have a precise concept of how high the Thunder Force level of the Qingluan Origin was, but Qingluan's cultivation base before his death was definitely far superior to his.

Qin Sang still needed to try, because as the three-tiered talisman formation was gradually completed, the talisman platform became far more stable than before and should be able to withstand stronger impacts.
He is now going to test the limits of the talismans' power.
If successful, there is no need to seek outside help.
The Qingluan Dharma Form swirled once above his head, then dove into his body. Qin Sang's aura shifted instantly. The feathers on the phoenix wings trembled slightly, their luster shifting and becoming even more brilliant and crystalline. Each feather resembled a jade carving.
Qin Sang slightly closed his eyes, connecting his spirit with his Dharma form. The power of the Dharma form seeped into the Phoenix Wings, sensing the presence of that primordial thunder force.
This power was very quiet within Feng Yi. Once it was touched, its true nature was revealed to be violent and surpassing even heavenly thunder, but Qin Sang did not reject it.
The Phoenix Wings were always a part of Qin Sang's body. The primal lightning force had been with him day and night, already merging with him. What's more, Qin Sang had integrated the dharma image, his aura now resembling that of a true Azure Bird.
After a moment's hesitation, Qin Sang used his Fa Xiang power to envelop the essence lightning force, trying to gently touch it.
There was no backlash.
Qin Sang finally felt a bit relieved. He cautiously tried to stimulate the primal lightning force, moving with extreme care. After countless failures, he finally managed to draw out a sliver of it and guide it out.
When the original thunder force separated from Phoenix Wings, azure lightning illuminated the entire cave in an instant, dazzlingly bright.
Qin Sang couldn't help but squint her eyes.
The naked eye couldn't see anything, but in Qin Sang's perception, that thread of lightning power existed distinctly, slowly moving toward him.
At the center of the lightning bolt, there is a thread of extremely minute thunder power. Though tiny, it is still able to maintain the shape of the lightning.
After observing for a while, Qin Sang murmured, "From now on, I'll call you Qingluan Zhenlei..."
The azure lightning was like a living creature, wriggling and twisting, but it was still relatively stable.
Qin Sang carefully pondered for a while, then continued his movements, using this thread of Qingluan True Lightning to sketch out the rune he had just comprehended.
Perhaps because Qingluan Zhenlei's energy was similar to his own, Qin Sang was surprised to find that controlling Qingluan Zhenlei to draw the glyphs wasn't difficult at all.
In a short while, a cyan-colored rune appeared in the void. The rune flickered with arcs of electricity, giving off an extremely dangerous feeling.
The higher the rank of a spirit, the less it requires. A mere wisp of Azure Crane True Thunder is enough to construct a complete talisman formation.
The next step is to embed the talismanic symbols into the altar, which is also a crucial one.
Qin Sang's expression was solemn, and he slowly moved the talisman closer to the altar. The lightning flashed and merged into it.
The inequality symbol wasn't fully embedded when the talisman platform suddenly shook violently. The Shenxiao Thunder Seal became translucent at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, a thick blue light exploded inside the talisman platform, making the entire structure seem like it was about to burst apart any moment.

Qin Sang's expression changed drastically. In an instant, he cast several hand seals, forcefully separating the azure light from the talisman platform.
With a flick of his sleeve, the stone door of the cave rumbled open. A beam of blue light shot out like a dragon.
"Click!"
’Boom boom boom…'
A sudden deafening boom shook the flower field.
At this moment, the entire space was filled with azure light. A bolt of blue lightning flashed like it had split open the heavens, disappearing in an instant.
The sound of thunder reverberates, lasting for a long time.

Qin Sang didn't know when he stood before the cave dwelling entrance, looking at the scene created by the exploding Qingluan Zhenlei. Thinking back to what had just happened, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
The Qingluan True Thunder was clearly too high in rank, the difference was too great, exceeding the limits that the Lu-Tan could withstand.
It's a pity, despite his high position, the number of people he can control is too small, and it's not yet in a state where it can form a force.
That Qingluan was indeed extraordinary...
This is a text snippet.
Qin Sang recalled the experience of obtaining the Qingluan Zhenlei, unable to imagine why these powerful divine beasts had become so weak and hidden in a small thousand world.
He turned back to his cave and saw the fire jade centipede, frightened, hiding in the corner of the cave, trembling.
The first attempt failed, and it seemed almost impossible to succeed.
Qin Sang, however, saw an opportunity in this. He sat back on the cushion, gazed at the talisman altar, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
After days of careful consideration, Qin Sang finally cleared his head and began his second attempt.
The previous steps were no different from the last time, still constructing the talisman form with Qingluan True Thunder. But when embedding the talisman form into the altar, Qin Sang's mental consumption was several times that before, no longer simply embedding, but actively guiding the aura of Qingluan True Thunder, merging it into every stroke of the talisman form and every corner of the altar.
The talisman array is not simply a superposition, but combines with previous talismans to form a whole. The primary-level Jade Purity Thunder Summoning Talisman, the secondary-level Golden Flow Fire Bell Thunder Summoning, and the tertiary-level Five Thunders Secret Scroll are all interconnected in a single lineage.
Qin Sang's action was akin to simultaneously renovating the foundation while constructing an altar. This act required a profound understanding of talismans, spirit creatures, and meticulous control. Any deviation, no matter how small, would render the entire effort futile.
What ordinary people couldn't accomplish, and Qin Sang alone wouldn't be able to succeed. It was only with the reliance of the Qingluan Dharma form that he dared to try.
As it turned out, Qin Sang's idea was feasible.
As the talisman was successfully embedded into the altar, becoming one with it, Qin Sang's lips curled into a smile.
The talismans seemed to be tinged with a faint blue light.
Qin Sang sensed a change in the talisman array, intuitively feeling that after integrating the Azure Pheasant True Thunder Talisman, the array would undergo transformations. However, it was just the beginning, and the changes were not yet apparent.
Perhaps, this talisman array, this divine lightning seal, in the future will not only be used to stabilize true essence...
Qin Sang was thinking.

With the formation of his talisman altar, he finally felt at ease and continued his tireless cultivation.
Just during Qin Sang's period of retreat for cultivation, the outside world had already undergone a drastic change.
The battle between the Dao Court and the Gui Fang Nation was ceaseless, but this time the situation changed rapidly, more so than ever before.
Those sects and solitary cultivators who had little to no connection with the He Dao court only became aware of the impending crisis after it arrived.
Even many celestial officials and Daoist cultivators only learned when the army assembled and marched north that the battlefield was not in Huangquan Dao, but in Niyuan.
Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags:

The demonic forces have been plotting for years, but the Daoist sect has remained largely unresponsive, only engaging in minor skirmishes.
Many people think that Shinto may not be the right path, and the Dao court tacitly approves, waiting to see the joke of the ghost country. There should be no war.
However, the moment Dao Ting made a move, it was like thunder crashing down. The Ghost Fang nation reacted with equal fury, and it seemed that Ni Yuan was about to experience a war of unparalleled scale.
For a moment, the hearts of all in Mount Gui trembled, countless eyes focused on the north.
For several months, Qin Sang shut himself away indoors.
On this day, Qin Sang was suddenly awakened. His eyes flew open, his gaze sharp as lightning, seeming to pierce through the stone gate and look out at the world.
Having stabilized his cultivation, Qin Sang rose to his full height, and the Sky-Eyed Butterfly immediately fluttered down to land on his shoulder.
Then the light flickered, and Qin Sang had already appeared outside the cave dwelling, standing in mid-air, facing the direction of the flower field space entrance.
Just now, a mark was destroyed.
The marks that can be sensed within the cave abode are all near the flowery field space. Someone has entered the treatment altar and is not far from him!
As I was deep in thought, another mark lost its connection.
"Could it be a celestial official from the Daoist realm or a demon from the spirit world..."
Qin Sang frowned, this was the last thing he wanted to see.
Outsiders dared not stay long at Gu Shan's practice grounds. For him, it was a tranquil and perfect place of cultivation, isolating him from worldly distractions and providing the necessary elixir and medicinal herbs for his training.

Like last time, it's still acceptable. What I'm most afraid of is the two major factions going wild in the court and even changing the political landscape.
Not only will it affect his search for a path to ascension, but it may also impact and destroy the Hua Tian Grand Formation, damaging his cave abode.
Qin Sang muttered a spell, concealed her aura, and quietly left the flower field, moving towards the location of the mark.
When there weren't many lines, Qin Sang sensed that another imprint had been destroyed. His mind sketched the trajectory of the other party's movement.

The other person was just passing by, they weren't coming for him.

Qin Sang placed the marks in concealed places within illusions. Others entering the illusion would inevitably be triggered when they passed these spots. The three marks were located on a straight line, and their destroyed intervals were very short.
The opponent was advancing straight ahead at a fast pace, looking effortlessly in control.
He had been reigning over this court for so long that he was finding traces of other people nearby for the first time. The other party should not have come back here casually.
These signs are enough to infer that the visitor's strength is very strong!
In the void, giant rocks drifted.
>
These giant boulders, like fragments of mountains, are bound here by an unknown force, drifting constantly but unable to come to rest.
The giant stone is surrounded by smaller stones, and even dust particles, forming large dust clouds. All of them revolve around the center, largest stone.
At this time, some figures appeared at the edge of the boulder. There were seven or eight people, who had just jumped onto a boulder. A cry of surprise came from the front.
Furthermore, in a moment of carelessness, someone head-butted the ground and pressed their head firmly against the surface of the giant stone, enduring the terrifying suction force.
Then, blood vessels appeared on their skin, oozing and converging into a pool on the stone surface. Their flesh shriveled and withered.
However, these people were powerful and composed in danger. They each displayed their divine powers and forcefully pushed up from the surface of the boulder.
The companions behind him also came to the rescue. A small flag appeared in the void, and as its light shone, the pressure on everyone eased, allowing them to stand firm.
All gathered together, took a short rest, and then passed under the protection of the small flag.
Just as these people had left, a figure appeared at the edge of the dust. It was Qin Sang.
Gazing at the direction where the other party had left, Qin Sang's eyes were solemn.
The other party's strength was very strong, Qin Sang did not get too close, but he could confirm that the other party was not a human race, but a demon cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, and there were even late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators among them. Although they were far apart, he faintly felt the threat.
So many Nascent Soul cultivators entered the treatment field, cooperating seamlessly and with a clear objective.
Qin Sang's ominous premonition grew stronger.
He pondered for a moment, gave up pursuing
and prepared to go outside and take a look at the situation.
Is it a case of avoiding the political arena, muddying the waters, or retreating into seclusion One must understand the whole situation before making a decision.
Turning to go outside, gradually Qin Sang's face grew increasingly gloomy.
On the way, one could sense that there were many other traces of destruction beyond this direction.
The forces entering the battlefield are not just one faction. If the immortal officials of Dao Court also arrived, and their strength was comparable to those demon cultivators, there would be a major upheaval in this battle!

Coming out, Qin Sang stopped at the place where there was once a mark, scanning his surroundings.
Here, Qin Sang hadn't encountered anyone else, and wasn't sure if the Daoist sect had sent people over. He could only choose a direction and follow it.

However, the situation is unclear. It seems unwise to rush into it.
Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned his head towards the entrance of the ritual platform. This time, the formation was even larger than last time. There must be responders outside the ritual platform. Through the strength of the responders, one could also judge some information.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Thinking of this, Qin Sang immediately set off, passing through the Nine Turns Star River to confirm that there was nothing unusual outside. Then he entered the Golden Hall.
In the golden hall, everything was as usual.
For some reason, after Qin Sang stepped into the golden hall, he felt a chilling aura, as if he had entered a battlefield. This was something he had never experienced before.
There's clearly no one here.
He had become more cautious, wielding various secret arts and treasures to conceal his aura and figure. He stealthily moved between the golden halls, but along the way, he didn't see any cultivators or demonic cultivators.
With no obstacles along the way, Qin Sang arrived near the exit of the tribunal and chose a cloud path into auspicious clouds.
After traveling through the auspicious clouds for a while, Qin Sang's figure suddenly stiffened and instinctively retreated backward.
Here's the translation:Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Through the celestial butterfly, Qin Sang vaguely saw the scene outside.
His face instantly turned as dark and gloomy as water.
Outside the platform, dark clouds covered the sky. Behind the clouds, golden rays of light stretched out in thousands of directions, with flashes of lightning and thunder. All sorts of strange phenomena were too numerous to mention.
To the east, ominous clouds were distinctly mixed with demonic energy. As the sea of clouds fluctuated, ranks upon ranks of bizarre figures stood in perfect formation, their banners waving, numbering beyond count.
>
In another direction, the scene was equally impressive. Besides the demon soldiers, there were also numerous Taoist priests, their talismans glowing brightly like towering platforms reaching for the heavens, forming an endless procession that stretched as far as the eye could see.
>
Both sides arrived at an unknown time, facing each other across the plain in front of the altar. The battle was about to begin.
At the rear of both armies, visions appeared constantly. Qin Sang instantly recognized that these were celestial phenomena caused by cultivators in the Refining Void stage!
A massive army pressed at the border, with a cultivator of the Profound Void realm personally commanding it.
This time's change has already exceeded his imagination! (The End)
