A biting wind howled, and a heavy snowfall descended.

The snowflakes are as large as trays.

Between heaven and sea, there is only white.

With the Ice God Saber as its center, a frigid zone formed. Wherever the chill reached, the sea surface froze rapidly, becoming a massive ice sheet.

These snowflakes are no ordinary ones, they are condensed blade intent, incredibly sharp.

The snow-clad divine blade descended through the air, appearing where the Sea Patrol Oni vanished. Its tip slanted downwards, pointing towards the seabed, its blade intent cascading downwards.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Countless snowflakes pierced the ice sheet.

The ice sheet is riddled with holes, but the chill is stronger than before, spreading rapidly downwards and outwards. At this rate, a vast expanse of ocean will be frozen over.

Below the sea.

The Sea-Patrol Oni rode the Blue Intercourse Teleport, moving with astonishing agility beneath the water, unhindered by anything.

Sensing the change in the air above, the Ocean Guardian Night Demon lifted its head and saw only a blinding white expanse, as if the heavens were about to collapse. A fierce light flashed in its eyes.

The Seafaring Oni's breath and the Azure steed beneath him merged as one, its speed pushed to the limit. Its legs squeezed the Azure beast tightly, causing it to grimace in pain, but unable to control its own body.

At the same time, the Sea Guardian's expression stiffened slightly before springing back to life.

The Snow-Treading Divine Sword let out a buzzing sound.

The blade trembled violently, shooting out a ten-thousand zhang sword glow. A white streak of light stretched across the sky, just like a white rainbow piercing the sun.

At high noon, even the sun's rays felt cold.

Zhou Jin and others were driving the flying magic treasure far away, their hearts sensing something, they all turned their heads and saw this incredible scene, their faces were full of shock.

The Divine Sword strikes down!

The ice sheet shattered with a deafening roar, countless ice shards whipped by the snow god's blade, tearing through the sea and leaving behind a massive trench on its surface.

The seawater on either side did not have time to close, but was instead battered by a storm of ice shards, forming wave mountains on both sides. When they reached their highest point, they froze and became two icebergs.

The iceberg meanders like a dragon.

Situated between icebergs, the abyss of the trench becomes even more profound, highlighting the astonishing power of this blade.

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

In the trench, the figures of the Sea Patrol Oni and Lan Jiao were exposed.

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

Even before the blade arrived, a chilling aura of swordsmanship enveloped them, sealing the surrounding void. Ice crept across their bodies.

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

To everyone's surprise, the Seafaring Oni didn't make any move to fight back at all, allowing itself to be frozen.

In the blink of an eye, a sculpture of ice took shape.

The Ocean Demon's expression suddenly became stiff, then his figure vanished into thin air. It turned out to be an illusion; only the Blue Exchange was frozen.

Qin Sang hovered in the air, overlooking the scene from above. His expression remained unchanged. He altered his hand seal and with a flash of his Snow-Treading Divine Blade, he reversed its direction, soaring over Lan Jiao and slashing towards the depths of the sea trench.

Just then.

A roar suddenly came from the trench.

The roar echoed between the icy walls on either side, spiraling and layering, until it reached the trench, where it could shake heaven and earth. Zhou Jin and the others heard it clearly, all feeling a chill down their spines.

The roar originated from a blue jay.

This azure dragon's appearance is not significantly different from other azure dragons, but its size is enormous, ten times larger than an ice carving azure dragon, comparable to a whale.

The gigantic blue Jiao, its massive body half-flipped, glared angrily at Qin Sang. Its giant tail lashed, its scales expanding and contracting, as it charged forward with brute force, slamming into the Treading Snow Divine Blade.

'

With a booming sound!

'

The shockwave shattered the ice walls on both sides, and seawater surged in.

The Snow God Blade initially met resistance, but ultimately broke through Lan Jiao's scales and smashed her skull.

Qin Sang's figure flashed, appearing above. He glanced around and murmured with some regret, "Good use of illusion and water escape techniques! It's a pity you didn't bring the Tianmu butterfly."

Here's the translation, keeping only the text within the tags:

As soon as the words left his mouth, the remains of the Azure Dragon's spirit dissipated, turning into two pools of seawater.

The Sea Demon is nowhere to be seen.

This is a test.

The ocean is their home turf.

The Seafaring Oni was very cautious, always keeping a distance from the battlefield. When things looked bad, they immediately fled.

Qin Sang still had to be wary of ambushes, even if he had directly used the Four-Headed Serpent Seal just now, there was probably little to be gained.

He released his spiritual awareness, but couldn't sense the presence of the Ocean Guardian. He had no choice but to sheathe the Stepping Snow Divine Blade and swiftly fly out of the sea trench, finding the ice sculpture that had been thrown out by the aftershock.

He had deliberately controlled his strength just now, this blue Jiao was still alive, rolling over on its white belly and floating on the sea. Its eyes rolled wildly, struggling violently, but it couldn't break free from the ice prison. Seeing Qin Sang coming up, its expression was terrified.

"I know your spiritual wisdom has blossomed!"

Qin Sang stepped on the ice, "I ask you, answer!"

Lan Jiao nodded hastily, her head hitting the ice cell with a dull clang.

"Are you demons who have been cultivating here, or are you wandering over from elsewhere Where is your lair Why are you here How many demon kings are there nearby" Qin Sang glared at Lan Jiao's eyes.

Lan Jiao did not dare to hesitate. He opened his blood basin wide, revealing his fangs, but his voice was as thin as a mosquito's whine, timidly, “Reporting to my lord, this little demon has been cultivating with our king in the deep sea along with me. We have never offended any human race. Not long ago, the king suddenly led his troops here and attacked the treasure ship under his orders. Please, my lord, be fair to us. This little demon is just a mount, I don't know much, only that the king once said that other kings would come later…”

"Master"

>

Qin Sang smiled with amusement, ignoring Lan Jiao's pleading eyes. He fell into deep thought.

Then, he asked several more questions. Lan Jiao answered truthfully, but could not provide the information Qin Sang wanted to know.

The Sea Demon is indeed just here.

The demon kings flocked to the Red South Island Chain. Could there really be a secret on the Red South Island Chain that even the demons have heard of

It's not safe to stay here for long!

Qin Sang pressed down slightly with her foot, shattering the ice beneath.

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

Lan Jiao regained her freedom, but she didn't dare to leave without orders. Trembling, she huddled beside Qin Sang's feet.

Qin Sang landed on Lan Jiao's back and pointed at the Red Nan Island chain, "Let's go!"

Lan Jiao didn't dare to make a sound, splitting the water and creating waves as he quickly caught up with Zhou Jin and the others. With Qin Sang's permission, everyone let Lan Jiao carry them back.

>

Throughout the journey, Qin Sang remained silent, and the others dared not speak.

And so, in silence, they encountered no beast hordes along the way and successfully returned to the Akina Islands.

"Everyone, disperse."

Stepping onto land, Qin Sang said calmly.

Only then did Leng Qi and the others have a chance to express their gratitude, they bowed to Qin Sang one after another, each with their own thoughts, and left.

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

Qin Sang turned her head and saw Lan Jiao peering out from the bank, gazing at her eagerly.

He casually picked up a clump of earth from the ground, molded it into a clay bowl, conjured a bowl of water out of thin air, and beckoned to Lan Jiao: "Come in."

Lan Jiao was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the hideous clay bowl. He was extremely unwilling, but he didn't dare to show any resistance, meekly shrinking his size.

A palm-sized ceramic bowl, the blue like a tiny fish fry, swimming inside.

Qin Sang handed the earthen bowl to Zhou Jin, "Take it back to the inn and put it in the pond in the backyard."

Zhou Jin didn't dare to be as carefree as Qin Sang. This Lan Jiao was stronger than him, so he hastily extended his hands, holding the pottery bowl carefully, afraid of spilling it, and followed Qin Sang step by step.

Qin Sang strolled leisurely in the courtyard, returned to the inn, and shut himself indoors.

The moment they landed, news of the demon's appearance spread like a storm throughout the entire Red South Archipelago. Coupled with the torrential downpour and thunder, it sent shivers down everyone's spine.

As night fell.

A sudden gale and heavy rain.

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

A figure appeared in front of Qin Sang's rented courtyard.

The restriction has been triggered.

Qin Sang's eyes narrowed slightly indoors, and he said unexpectedly, "It came sooner than expected!"

“Go open the courtyard gate and welcome our honored guests!”

Qin Sang sent a voice transmission to Zhou Ruan and his wife.

The two of them were staring at the blue jay by the pond. They glanced at each other, both surprised. In their perception, there was no one outside the courtyard.

They hurriedly broke the seal and opened the gate. Seeing the elder standing outside, they looked solemn and respectfully said, "Please come in, senior."

The old man was simply dressed in coarse hemp clothes, but his bearing was extraordinary.

He nodded slightly, following Zhou Jin to the front of the main hall. He paused his steps, stroked his long beard, and looked up and down at Ruan Yu who was standing at the door.

He was being stared at by the old man.

Ruan Yu's pretty face flushed slightly, and her heart pounded with alarm.

Zhou Jin was furious, but dared not speak.

“Very good! You have excellent natural talent, but it's a pity that you were injured before, otherwise your chances of forming a Golden Core would be very high. This old man has a Chao Yuan Dan here, which should be of some help to you.”

The old man took out a jade bottle containing pills.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou are both dull-witted.

Ruan Yu's face flushed with embarrassment, she stammered and didn't know how to answer, nor dared she accept.

"Ruan Yu, don't you thank your senior for his kindness"

Qin Sang's voice came from inside the room.

Ruan Yu was delighted upon hearing this, took the jade bottle and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you, senior, for the gift of elixir."

"The old man's surname is Leng."

The old man chuckled and turned to enter the main hall, his voice ringing out, “Cold Mist, left protector of the Gu God Sect, makes a presumptuous visit. It is not the most opportune time, I hope I haven't disturbed Daoist Qin in his quiet meditation”

Qin Sang walked out of the quiet room, "Daoist Leng just arrived and presented a grand gift. This poor Daoist is grateful but hasn't had time to reciprocate."

Saying that, Qin Sang stretched out his hand and invited the old man to sit down, inquiring curiously, "The Three Heroes of the Leng family are..."

Lao Leng nodded, "It's true. My three incompetent disciples were disrespectful before. I hope Daoist Qin won't mind. Daoist Qin saved their lives from the mouths of demonic beasts, and compared to this life-saving grace, what are a few Chao Yuan Pills"

Qin Sang suddenly realized, smiling and saying, “So you say, Daoist friend came to help the disciple Daoist friend's speed is so fast!”

His tone was laced with sarcasm.

Qin Sang keenly caught a hint, Lao Leng must have been lurking near the Red South Islands chain all along. As for what he was doing or whether he was intentionally hiding, only heaven knows.

The disappearance of a deity is significant, yet not overly so. It's important, but most powers aren't directly affected.

The ruins of the ancient Xianzong sect still only exist in legend.

Every Nascent Soul cultivator was busy with their cultivation and preparations against the tribulation. It showed how much importance the sect placed on this matter by sending several of their most promising disciples to investigate in the East Sea. At least until they received concrete clues, the master himself wouldn't appear.

If it weren't for the search for two immortal palaces, Qin Sang wouldn't have come in person, let alone in a transformed body.

Demon King.

The Yuan Ying hidden in the shadows.

Qin Sang suddenly had a feeling that a storm was brewing, as if he were standing right at the center of a vortex. He wasn't sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Elder Leng didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Qin Sang's tone, his smile unchanged. "Hearing Leng Qi describe your peerless divine abilities, this old man feels ashamed of himself and yearns for them. This old man usually prides himself on being well-informed, yet he was unaware that such a powerful expert as you existed in the world! Shame on me! Shame on me!"

Your esteemed disciple must surely have some exaggerated aspects.

Qin Sang remained impassive, calmly stating: "Besides, the world is vast and filled with heroes. It's impossible to know them all. Don't be surprised, Cold Daoist. I had never heard of the Gu Shen Jiao before either."

Upon hearing that Leng Lao claimed to be from the Gu Shen Sect, Qin Sang's mind raced, recalling the major forces from his memory.

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

To be familiar with the cultivation world of Zhongzhou, he had specially collected such news, but the Gu Shen Sect was not included.

Elder Leng was a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul, and in the Gu Shen Sect, he was only considered a first-class protector. It seemed there were other protectors and a higher-ranking sect master.

Such a force, how could it be unknown

Has the mysterious force that has always been hidden in the shadows only emerged after the disappearance of the deity

The name 'Gu God Cult' further stirred Qin Sang's sensitive mind.

He recalled the divine powers displayed by the Cold Clan's Three Heroes when they faced a horde of beasts.

After the treasure ship shattered, Leng Qi and his two companions worked together, opening pockets on their bodies one by one. They scattered clumps of brightly colored powder or liquid—all highly poisonous substances.

The colors are chaotic, yet they contain a special kind of order.

A colorful and poisonous miasma formed around them. When demons approached, some convulsed and died, while others turned into pools of pus. No matter how strong their bodies were, they couldn't withstand it; the poison was extremely potent.

Leng Qi's poisonous attack was even more formidable. He opened his mouth, and a purple scaled snake head emerged from his throat, spewing out venomous smoke that merged with the poison field, increasing its power to a new level.

>

Seeing this scene, everyone else was very wary of the Cold Three Heroes and kept their distance from them.

"This is not the same kind of gu... it's a technique using venomous insects! That snake isn't a spirit insect, but a demonic beast serpent, cultivated and raised to become a poisonous insect. It's not from the shaman tribe's insects, it seems unrelated to them..."

Qin Sang had a pretty good guess about the backgrounds of the Three Heroes of Leng.

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

I wonder what kind of supernatural powers this old poisoner has.

Fat silkworms are undoubtedly their nemesis.

A spiritual body is a manifestation of the spirit wood, and it is not afraid of ordinary poisons. However, many toxins can harm the primordial spirit, causing true energy to become chaotic or even stagnant. It must be treated with caution.

Qin Sang spoke plainly.

Lao Leng wasn't annoyed. He smiled and said, "We didn't know each other before because our fate hadn't arrived yet."

Saying that, Elder Leng took out a token and handed it to Qin Sang.

The token was made of dark iron. One side was engraved with the characters "Gu Shen," and the other side depicted a uniquely shaped crown.

In the diagram, five jade pieces of five different colors are inlaid along the edge of the crown. Their meaning is unclear.

"What do you mean, Daoist friend" Qin Sang frowned.

"This old man has only issued two Gu Shen Orders, both to congenial fellow cultivators. Though we've just met, I know you are a righteous and courageous friend, and I am deeply respectful because you saved my disciple. Rest assured, the Gu Shen Order doesn't bind you in any way; it simply represents a noble status. You will often hear from my sect in the future, and if you encounter any trouble, my sect will do everything in its power to help!"

Lao Leng said with full confidence.

Qin Sang of course didn't believe that such a good thing existed in the world. Since there were no constraints, he decided to take the Gu Shen Ling and see what the Gu Shen Jiao was all about.

Seeing Qin Sang put away the token, Lao Leng's smile became even warmer.

After some polite exchanges, Lao Leng finally got to the point and asked Qin Sang about his findings while pursuing the demon king.

As for this, Qin Sang had expected it long ago and made no secret of it. He let Zhou Ruan take Lao Leng to the backyard pond to personally ask Lan Jiao.ulations, fellow cultivator, on your comprehension of the sword intent!"Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!Qin Sang retracted his spiritual sword and slowly exhaled, say...
