: "In my sect, there has only been one brilliant predecessor who achieved this level. Unfortunately, that predecessor had a mixed spiritual root and ultimately stopped at the False Core Realm!"Even w...Outside the dwelling of Master Zhijian.

Qin Sang crossed his legs and sat down, placing the Chéngyǐng Sword on his lap. He stroked the blade, feeling the movements as taught by the Swordmaster Zhìchí, sensing the seal within.

Zhizhen, the Swordmaster, broke through his cultivation, Qin Sang protected him, and Jiannu activated the island-protecting formation, guarding the entrance to Lingdao.

The grass and trees are withered, and it is autumn again.

The gate to the cave dwelling opened, and the sword-wielding True Man stepped out. Qin Sang had already risen to his feet and stood waiting, "Congratulations, Dao brother!"

In just half a year, Zhijian Zhenren successfully broke through to the middle stage of Hualing, much faster than Qin Sang expected!

“Thanks, little brother, for looking out for me.”

The True Person with the Sword smiled, his eyes falling on the sword in Qin Sang's hand. "How is it going"

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

"I have a clue," Qin Sang said confidently.

Most inherited swords are forged for posterity and possess unique seals that require special methods to break.

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

Unable to find a way to solve it, I can only follow what the Sword Master said and spend painstaking effort, trying bit by bit.

Luckily, as Qin Sang had expected, the seal on the Chéngyǐng Sword had weakened over time and its power was no longer what it used to be. It wouldn't be long before the seal could be broken.

“Fellow Daoist, you have just broken through, there must be many important matters to attend to. This poor cultivator will not disturb you for now. I will come again another day to celebrate your breakthrough,” Qin Sang gave a bow, then turned and walked towards his own cave dwelling.

Zhijian Zhenren watched Qin Sang off, pondering for a moment, then called over his sword slave and ordered him to fetch the talismans that had been sent to the island over this period.

Return to the cave.

Qin Sang immediately closed the formation barrier, and the Chasing Shadow Sword flew out of his hand, hovering in front of him.

With his heart and soul immersed in the sword, Qin Sang's face was etched with a thoughtful expression.

After several days, he suddenly acted, consecutively performing several incantations and striking the Yingying Sword from afar.

Clank!

The sword cries out, clear and piercing. The Chengying Sword suddenly blooms with dazzling sword light, illuminating the entire cave.

But the sword light vanished in an instant, and the spirit sword returned to its slumber.

>

Qin Sang's eyes flashed with delight. He raised his hand, a stream of light enveloping the sword body, imprints flashing constantly, the radiance changing unpredictably.

In a short while, the Chéngyǐng Sword began to vibrate rapidly. Until finally, a sharp, porcelain-like cracking sound erupted from the sword's body. A fierce and unparalleled sword qi suddenly burst forth from the cave, aiming to shatter the cave's barrier.

Qin Sang's expression changed slightly, and his true essence surged forward, almost forming a vortex of true essence in the void.

The radiance faded, leaving nothing but emptiness within the vortex.

Even the sword shadow couldn't be seen.

But Qin Sang could clearly perceive the powerful sword intent, as well as the intangible sword weapon that bore it.

Or, the Shadow-chaser Sword itself is manifested from this sword intent.

When Qin Sang's mind entered the shadow-receiving sword, he felt himself instantly pulled into a strange space.

In a daze, he seemed to see a person.

This man stood with his back to him, atop Yun Shan. He held a sword in one hand and slashed forward, aiming at the front.

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

"Whoosh!"

Sword out.

There are no surging waves, no mountains collapsing, nor rivers flowing backwards.

A seemingly ordinary sword strike, yet it stirred Qin Sang's heart and soul. He abruptly withdrew his sword, his breath coming in short gasps as a look of shock spread across his face.

That sword strike, was the embodiment of sword intent passed down through generations!

The Shadow-Chaser Sword had no martial arts, not a single word or phrase. You couldn't even make out the appearance of that senior swordsman, only pure sword intent.

In an instant, Qin Sang's heart became clear. The predecessors who refined the sword intent inheritance cultivated the path of the killing sword!

Similarly, Qin Sang also felt a great difference between this person's way and the 《元神養劍章》.

Although all schools of swordsmanship share the common goal of killing, they differ greatly in their emphasis and techniques. They should not be confused with each other.

The way of Yuanshen Yang Jian, is also the path Qin Sang sought, focusing more on 'killing', understanding the sword through killing.

Those who wield swords value them above all else, and in their eyes, mastering the sword is the path to greatness. Perhaps this is the honorable way a swordsman sees it.

According to the cultivation process described in "Yuan Shen Yang Jian Zhang," every time a practitioner breaks through a realm, they gain new insights into the path of killing and undergo a transformation.

However, the changes in swordsmanship are not as obvious as those in killing arts. Even when entering the realm of transformation gods, there is still only the Seven Souls Killing Formation. Fundamentally, it is still due to the continuous evolution of the seven killing talismans.

That is why Qin Sang understood that the master of the Chengying Sword and the master of "The Treatise on Cultivating a Primordial Spirit with a Sword" might have a connection, but their paths were different.

He needs to follow the path of Yuan Shen Yang Jian Zhang, and the sword intent within Yingjian cannot directly improve Qin Sang's own way.

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

However, accepting the sword intent of the Yingying Sword would still be immensely beneficial to him, at the very least it could greatly improve his swordsmanship.

Thinking of this, Qin Sang's urgency subsided somewhat. After a moment's thought, his brow furrowed and he summoned the Yun You Sword.

The Cloud-Travelling Sword twirled and spun, its body translucent, its spirit already very evident, rapidly transforming into a Spirit Embryo.

After repeatedly seeking guidance from Master Qi and Master Gu, Qin Sang continuously improved the sword-sacrificing technique, with gratifying results.

With a slight movement of his mind, the Yunyou Sword hung beside Chengying.

The Shadow-Concealing Sword was intangible, and only the Cloud-Traveling Sword could be seen with the naked eye. Qin Sang was preparing to try using the Cloud-Traveling Sword to refine this sword.

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

After opening the seal, Qin Sang had a clearer understanding of the Chengying Sword.

As an inherited sword, the Chényǐng Sword was meticulously forged by a senior swordsman with their sword intent. It is not merely a physical blade but rather a manifestation of pure sword intent itself, a formless yet potent weapon.

As sword intent is refined, it merges with the spirit sword's energy of the person being refined, thus transforming into the spirit sword's sword shadow.

To put it simply, the Shadow Sword may just be attached to the Cloud-Walking Sword, rather than being integrated with it.

After all, tempering one's own spirit sword is also part of a swordsman's cultivation. The purpose of inheriting a sword is to point the way and quickly enhance the strength of the inheritor, but tempering the spirit sword still depends on oneself.

Qin Sang thought that the Shadow-Bearing Sword might not affect the Cloud Traveling Sword's spiritual essence.

These are just speculations. If it's impossible, Qin Sang could only wait for the Cloud Travelling Sword to give birth to a spirit before refining the Shadow Receiving Sword again, or find another sword.

The Cloud-Traveling Sword was in harmony with his heart.

Qin Sang urged the Yun You Jian, transforming it into sword light that enveloped Cheng Ying Jian, cautiously probing.

An hour later.

Qin Sang's nervous expression gradually disappeared, replaced by a relaxed one. As it turned out, refining the Shadow-Concealing Sword wouldn't impact Yun You's sword spirit, so he could go ahead with it without worry.

However, after a period of time, Qin Sang still put away the two swords and suspended the refining.

Since refining the Shadow-Chaser Sword offered little help in his cultivation, Qin Sang wasn't in a hurry. He still focused on cultivating and placed the refinement of the Shadow-Chaser Sword after comprehending the Seven Buddhas' Palm Technique.

Although the time spent contemplating was not long, Qin Sang still benefited immensely.

>

A sword light shot out from the Qianjun Ring.

The Gray Sparrow Sword flashed, and the cave instantly transformed, as if bringing the starry sky into this blade.

Gazing at the Seven Star Boundary Sword Formation, Qin Sang wore a thoughtful expression.

Before that, he knew he hadn't thoroughly understood the Seven Constellation Division Sword Formation. Whenever he had time, he would ponder over it.

Having received the transmission of sword intent, not only did his swordsmanship greatly increase, but it also broadened his horizons.

“Perhaps, the Seven Star Boundary Sword Formation is nearing completion. Perhaps I can spend more time on it for now…”

Qin Sang's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself.

>

When news spread of Zhijian Zhenren's breakthrough, Youhuang Zhenren and others came to offer congratulations one after another.

Qin Sang would also leave the pass from time to time, occasionally going to the City of the Pot. But he would often ask Zhìjiàn True Person for guidance on swordsmanship.

Feeling that Zhijian Zhenren was sincerely pointing him in the right direction, Qin Sang benefited greatly and felt deeply grateful.

During that time, Master Lingxu sent someone with a bottle of Yinghua Dan. Qin Sang would give Tianmu Die one every few days.

Both man and butterfly are rapidly improving.

This is the day.

A streak of light flew to the sky above the water where Jianxin Island was located.

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

The newcomer was a clean-looking young man. He circled above the nearby water for a while before finally finding Jianxin Island. Overjoyed, he sped up and flew towards Jianxin Island.

Who is it

Ten miles from Jianxin Island, a shout echoed forward, accompanied by a powerful and overwhelming force.

The young man's face paled, and he stopped abruptly. "This junior is here on behalf of Master Shizun, the esteemed sage of Mount Xian, to deliver a letter to Senior Qingfeng,"

"Oh Bring the letter here, this old man will deliver it to Senior Qingfeng," a black-robed elder appeared ahead.

The young man did not dare to ask more, he handed over the letter and respectfully waited outside the island.

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

Inside the cave dwelling, Qin Sang received a report from Jian Nu upon awakening from his meditation. He murmured, "I didn't expect to wait for ten years. Qing Dan Yuanjun has prepared for so long, is it finally time to make a move"

With a flick of his wrist, the letter fell into his hand.

Qin Sang looked at it, then spoke in a deep voice: "Tell Bo Xian Daoist friend that ten days later, this poor Taoist will surely keep the appointment."

"Yes!"

The sword slave took his orders and left.

Qin Sang pondered deeply.

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

Ten years had passed, and Qin Sang's interest in the Poisonous Domain was no longer as great as it once was.

Before agreeing to Qing Deng Yuanjun, he was unaware of the origin of the Seven Masters Buddha Seal and had no knowledge of the details of the Shadow Embracing Sword.

Once you understand them, it will be enough to guarantee your own combat effectiveness.

Adding more poison to the path, it seems like greedily chewing too much and not digesting properly. In fact, Qin Sang now feels stretched thin.

To go to the Poisonous Domain is also to seek a path.

Besides, Qin Sang also wanted to verify whether his understanding of the cultivation technique was correct.

He had already made up his mind, venturing deep into the treacherous Netherwood to challenge a demonic beast of the Nascent Soul mid-stage alone.

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

The Hell Realm is teeming with ferocious beasts. If I can harness their strength to help me comprehend the Path of Killing, then I will have no fear of my opponents in the future.

If the effect is not good, it is possible that your own understanding still has deviations.

"Settle this quickly and go into seclusion to cultivate."

Qin Sang pondered for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes and silently circulated his inner energy.

Ten days later.

Qin Sang did not startle the sword-wielding Immortal, informing Jian Nu with a word, and flew northwestwards on his sword.

Soon, they arrived above a reef.

The reefs here are not big, and they look desolate and uninhabited.

“Indeed, True Person Qingfeng is a man of his word. Please, come in.”

This is a bit tricky! I can't actually "see" or process the HTML tags within your request. My job is to understand and translate the text content. Could you please provide the text content between the `

A figure flew out from a small island, it was Berxian the True Person. Upon seeing Qin Sang, he wore a look of relief.

Qin Sang bowed and, shoulder to shoulder with the venerable Master Bohen, landed on the island.

With a wave of his hand, the Immortal Bo Xian revealed a magnificent fairy abode: "This is my humble dwelling…"

As they spoke, the two entered the fairy mansion and saw the tranquil Master Yuanjun.

After a brief exchange of greetings, they got down to business.

Qin Sang looked at Qing Dan Yuanjun and said, "Why isn't Yun Wei real person here"

Qingdan Yuanjun shook her head. "Last time, our disciples suffered heavy losses, and the remaining manpower was insufficient to set up the formation. For the past ten years, I and Daoist Bo Xian have wanted to improve the formation method, but in the end it was all in vain. Yunwei and the others without the protection of the formation will only become a burden to us. This time, only the three of us will go together!"

Then Bo-Xian, the Real Person, chimed in: "Surely Qing Feng, the Real Person, has made some preparations"

"The poor monk will do his best."

>

Qin Sang nodded.

>

He once asked Master Lingxu about detoxifying pills, and discovered that highly potent pills were incredibly valuable. Even Master Lingxu himself found it difficult to refine them easily.

And the efficacy of the medicine is not as strong as that of the fat silkworm's poison pill.

Qingdan Yuanjun nodded and said, "This poor Dao has also collected some anti-poison treasures. The three of us join hands, entering the depths of the poison domain is no problem at all. This time, we still prioritize safety, if it doesn't work once, we'll come again next time."

Upon hearing this, Qin Sang slightly frowned.

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

He really doesn't want to waste too much time on the other party.

Moreover, all signs point to the fact that Ye Yuan is not peaceful. Demonic God worship is rampant in Ye Yuan.

The Gui Fangguo and Dao Ting are plotting something unknown, a volcano is brewing beneath the calm facade.

In this situation, frequent travel between the two places is not a wise move.

"Have either of you received any news How does the Dao Court intend to deal with the demon gods" Qin Sang asked in a low voice.

Qing Dan Yuanjun was startled and blushed, saying: "This poor Dao has been wholeheartedly preoccupied with matters in the Poisonous Domain, but I have been negligent in understanding the situation..."

Such sects as the Luolu and Shanshan Dao, are accustomed to the existence of the Dao Court. The threat of demons is dealt with by the Dao Court itself.

They just need to wait for the court to issue a summons, dispatch people to join the battlefield, and drive back the demons.

Countless years of history have proven that the Dao Court acts fairly.

Bo Xian, a hermit from Mount Xian, let out a cold snort. "You two friends have forgotten those Earth deities Even Yue Huang, with the highest rank among them, is only a Xuan Fa position. What kind of god is that He's just a watchdog for the Dao Court! The demons from the Gui Fang Kingdom trying to take this path, what storm can they possibly stir up"

Qin Sang didn't agree with Bohui Shanren's statement, but she didn't say much either.

Qingdan Yuanjun said, “Don't worry, Master. I have investigated and found that neither the Dao Court nor the Ghost Kingdom has sent anyone into Guishan to control the ritual altar for now. At least within the altar itself, we are safe. If there is another time, I will definitely investigate clearly.”

Then, the three of them discussed their itinerary for the next few days.

>

They were well-prepared before the meeting, no longer hesitating. On that day, they set off from this island and flew north, arriving at the border of Star Island's Immortal Lake.

No one is vying for the toxic territory with them, no need to rush, no need to fly as fast as last time.

The three of them converged their breath, displaying the art of concealment, and landed softly on the ground, walking slowly so as not to disturb the ferocious beast.

They are fearless of beasts, but must beware the demons of the Ghost Kingdom.

Half a month later.

Three people stood on the mountaintop, gazing at a valley ahead. Their expressions were solemn.

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

“It is indeed the demon temple, as the rumors say. The demonic claws are reaching deep into the Taoist heartland,” Bo Xian Shanren said in a low voice.

It is said that even in the distant land of Zhongmao and Shizhi, there are signs of demon gods.

This is the translation:

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

Qin Sang couldn't help but think back to the snake demon he had subdued all those years ago.

The legacy obtained by the snake demon, could it be a hidden threat left behind by the Ghost Fang Nation, blooming everywhere, making it difficult for the Daoist sect to manage both ends

The Dao Court has not yet launched a large-scale campaign to subdue the demonic forces, and there are no signs of attacking mountains, destroying temples, or pacifying the demonic atmosphere. As a result, demonic activity will only become more rampant in the future.

"Go around."

Qing Dan Yuanjun spoke in a low voice.

The three of them took a long look at the rough temple in the valley and the ghost worshippers kneeling there, then quietly bypassed the place.

Along the way, they were forced to detour many times, trying their best to avoid fighting, and finally returned safely to the Sanji altar.

The auspicious clouds shrouding the governance platform have returned to stability, with no more fluctuations spilling outward. The ferocious beasts have once again retreated to the plains before the auspicious clouds, making for quite a lively scene.

This is a simple translation. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Out of caution, the three roamed the area for many days, probing enemy movements, and then crossed the plain at top speed, fleeing into the mountain temple.int Yin Thunder power. It is used to refine magic artifacts like flying swords, and its power can surpass that of ordinary artifacts of the same rank by a few points.However, this wisp of Yin Thunder...
