Chapter 978: A World Apart

as heavy as a thousand catties. The Ice Dragon crashed into the mist, producing a metallic clang. Its momentum was suddenly reduced.Elder Yan Shan seized the opportunity to quickly dodge aside, avoi..."My name is Liu, and I'm the manager of the Qiongyu Chamber of Commerce. I don't know your Dharma name Do you want to buy elixirs or magic treasures, or sell any treasures..."

At this time, the manager surnamed Liu saw Qin Sang secretly displaying a token. His pupils shrank suddenly, and his attitude immediately became warm. He said repeatedly, "Fellow Daoist, please come with me. Let's go to a quiet room to discuss in detail!"

"Good."

Qin Sang followed the steward surnamed Liu upstairs to a quiet room.

Mr. Liu, the steward, was a man of few words and stern demeanor. He sat across from Qin Sang, offering him spiritual tea. "So it's Daoist Qingfeng," he said. "Although I've been confined to this remote island of Da Yuzhou, I've heard whispers of you fellow cultivators. I never expected to have the fortune of meeting Daoist Qingfeng today. As they say, seeing is believing!"

Qin Sang chuckled, "This poor monk only did some trivial things for Elder Zou in the Demon Sea. Later, because of my cultivation, I haven't left seclusion for decades. It's rare that Daoist Liu still remembers this poor monk."

Elder Zou was a pillar of the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce, it wasn't strange that the Liu surname manager knew him, Qin Sang didn't expect he had even heard of himself.

After leaving Du Island, Qin Sang rarely contacted members of the Chamber of Commerce. The only one who knew he was going to challenge Qisha Hall again was Zou Lao.

Manager Liu, with the surname Liu, burst into laughter. After another round of compliments, he asked, "I wonder, Daoist Qingfeng, what brings you to Manager Liu's humble abode Among the Daoists in this vicinity, Manager Liu has a certain reputation. Whatever is within my power, I will do without hesitation, even if it means jumping into boiling water.

"Liu Daoist is too kind."

When Qin Sang heard this, he stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "This poor Taoist needs a batch of spirit herbs. Due to the urgency of the matter, they must be gathered as soon as possible. And these spirit herbs are not common things. With my own strength, it would be difficult to achieve. I can only ask the Chamber of Commerce and Liu Dao You for help..."

He took out a jade tablet and handed it to the steward surnamed Liu.

Li, the steward surnamed Liu, understood etiquette and did not inquire about Qin Sang's purpose. He took the jade簡.

After reading the prescription, the steward surnamed Liu frowned, seemingly somewhat embarrassed.

Qin Sang knew very well the intentions of the steward surnamed Liu. He added, "Rest assured, Daoist friend, after these spirit medicines are gathered, this poor Taoist will purchase them with spirit stones at the original price and won't make it difficult for Daoist friend."

Upon hearing this, the steward surnamed Liu smiled and readily agreed, "Mr. Liu naturally trusts Daoist Master! However, the types of elixirs listed on the prescription are numerous, and only a portion are in stock at our branch. To gather all the ingredients, we need to purchase them from other guilds or urgently requisition them from other branches. Daoist Master will need to wait a few more days on the island."

How long will it take

Qin Sang frowned and asked.

Liu, the steward, pondered for a moment and spread out his palm, saying: “Master Daoist, if you have something urgent to attend to, I will order my subordinates to do it immediately. It should be possible to gather more than 80% within five days.”

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

“Three days, as many as possible. I trouble you, Liu Daoist.”

Qin Sang said.

He was just about to refine the Magic Banner when it reached a critical point. Anyway, he had already been delayed for so long, staying on Big Island for a few days wouldn't hurt. Once the Magic Banner was refined, his strength would increase by another level.

“By the way, before I heard from Old Zou that he was going to challenge the Seven Killing Hall to find a breakthrough opportunity. Now that it's been so long since the Seven Killing Hall closed, does the Chamber of Commerce have any news about Old Zou”

Qin Sang pretended to care and asked.

He wanted to know where Zou Lao's honorary tomb was located.

He had the relics left by Old Zou, but he wasn't going to take them out just like that. It would easily raise suspicion from others and cause unnecessary trouble.

In the future, if there's an opportunity, go to Zou Lao's grave and secretly give his descendants the things.

"Did Old Zou enter the Hall of Seven Kills"

Mr. Liu, the manager surnamed Liu, was astonished and filled with admiration. He said somewhat sheepishly, “I originally thought that Old Zou, like me, had accepted his fate and lost his desire to seek the Dao. I didn’t expect Old Zou to have a sudden realization and go all in. The Hall of Seven Kills is fraught with danger, but with Old Zou’s strength and cunning, he should be able to turn danger into safety and escape unharmed! In the future, our Chamber of Commerce might even have another Nascent Soul stage expert…”

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

Qin Sang echoed him with her mouth, but secretly sighed in her heart.

It seems the Chamber of Commerce hasn't confirmed that Old Zou has fallen. After all, it's possible that Old Zou left the Qisha Hall and went into seclusion immediately, otherwise news of his death would definitely have spread.

“Also, please ask Liu Daoist to inquire for news of Elder Zou and report it to me as soon as possible...”

After talking for a while, Qin Sang bid farewell.

Liu surname manager named a maid to lead Qin Sang to the chamber in the merchant guild for quiet contemplation.

As Qin Sang left, the steward surnamed Liu's smile vanished. His eyes flickered as he hurried back to his quiet room, sat down in deep thought for a moment, then took out a small bell and shook it gently.

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

The bell is silent.

After a moment, ripples appeared in the quiet and empty chamber, slowly revealing a black silhouette.

Qin Sang arrived at the cave abode and dismissed her maidservants. She didn't rush inside but instead strolled leisurely through the marketplace.

He went in and out of shops, sometimes buying things he needed.

The main purpose is to bring Bai out into the world, open his eyes, and let him understand the current cultivation world.

“The world is so barren now, even a Core Formation cultivator is rare.”

After a long silence, Bai uttered a sigh of emotion.

“Now you know how difficult it is to collect those spirit herbs, right Besides the part I picked out, the rest can only be found by chance at large trading fairs.”

Qin Sang said faintly, "The late Nascent Soul stage is the top expert in Canglang Sea. The Foundation Establishment and Core Formation stages are like traversing a thousand armies crossing a stone bridge. If it weren't for Canglang Sea discovering the Demon Sea and refining the Sha Yao Dan, there would be even fewer Core Formation cultivators."

Bai Weiwei sighed softly, "Go back! There's nothing to see in this small town. If there's a chance, Daoist friend, take me to Ti XING City that you've praised for so long..."

"Good."

Qin Sang nodded and returned to her cave abode.

The manager surnamed Liu had arranged an excellent cave dwelling for him. The place was rich in spiritual energy and a perfect place for cultivation. The furnishings inside were also very thoughtful, like a mansion.

Qin Sang ignored the outside world, adding several layers of barrier restrictions outside his cave abode. He then took out six magic banners.

After days of relentless training, he has become quite familiar with the Six Demon Banners Array. In a few days, he will be able to skillfully control the demonic fire at his command.

'Snore...'

The ten directions Yama Banner whirls and rises, forming a flag array before Qin Sang.

The Nine Nether Demon Fire shot out from the banner's surface, converging in the middle into a ball, its power far surpassing before.

The flames danced wildly, as if a demon were hidden within them.

Qin Sang quickly cast a spell and unleashed a finger of demonic fire.

Under Qin Sang's restraint, the Jiuyu Demon Fire gradually calmed down and slowly gathered towards the center. Then, under Qin Sang's guidance, it sometimes dispersed and sometimes condensed, changing endlessly.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

"Got it!"

Qin Sang spread his sleeves and retracted the magic banners one by one. He glanced at the cave abode, then strode outside. how dangerous this move was. Even if it succeeded, a forceful breakthrough would leave many hidden dangers.But he could only gamble.Even if we put in ten times or a hundred times the effort and time...
