oser inspection, one can see that these are not the roots of a tree but rather strange tendrils produced by the fusion of jade pools and tree roots. The two seem to be merging together.What surprised...Outside the city walls.

Qin Sang followed the sound and saw Chen Yan, who was wearing a cloak, at a glance.

Chen Yan stood alone at the edge of a forbidden barrier, gazing at the surging tide of spirits outside. Her aura was cold and aloof, keeping everyone at bay. No one could see her expression beneath her cloak, and no one dared to approach her.

On the left of the morning mist, a man in brocade robes and a long-bearded Taoist priest were conversing.

These two people showed no sign of movement, and could easily be mistaken for ordinary people.

With Qin Sang's current cultivation level, even facing a Core Formation stage expert, he could sense the faint fluctuations of true energy if the other party did not deliberately conceal it.

It's impossible to encounter ordinary people here. If this happens, it means the other party's cultivation level far surpasses one's own!

The moment Qin Sang saw them, his heart skipped a beat. He felt an inexplicable pressure.

They stood before the barrier, the terrifying tide of spirits making it churn and sway as if it would break at any moment. Yet, they remained calm and composed, seemingly oblivious to the spiritual onslaught.

The one who spoke was the man in the brocade robe.

Lord of Dongyang!

Qin Sang's heart moved, feeling deeply touched. After nearly a hundred years of entering the sect, he finally saw his own ancestral master with his own eyes.

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

Another person could sit on an equal footing with Dongyang Bo. He must surely be a powerful figure at the Yuan Ying level, perhaps Chongyi Daochang, the ancestor of Taiyi Danzong, or Tieguanzi, the Palace Master of Shangyuan Qingjinggong.

East Yang Bo spoke, the Liu surname's Golden Pill dared not cause further trouble, obediently replying with a sound, and immediately letting him go.

Qin Sang and the others followed Feng Ming's uncle quickly, stepping forward and bowing deeply to Dong Yang Bo. "Disciples pay respects to the ancestor!"

Get up.

Dongyang Bo nodded slightly and said faintly, "Feng Ming, take them aside to wait."

"Yes!"

Qin Sang obediently retreated to the side, quietly observing the people in the field.

Before the arrival of Yun Youzi, besides Dongyang Bo, Chenyan, and a mysterious Daoist master, all were cultivators at the Jindan stage.

Among them, some had once appeared in the waters of Chaos Island. Some came from the Taiyi Danzong, while most were from other sects stationed at Xuankouli Pass.

Among them, only Feng Ming Shishu from Shaohua Mountain was present, while not a single person came from Shangyuan Qingjing Palace. Qin Sang found this rather strange.

Qi Yuanyu had just formed his nascent dan, it was understandable that he wouldn't go to the Purple Micro Palace right away.

None of the other uncles are new to the Golden Core stage, has no one gone to the Purple Micro Palace

While Qin Sang was secretly assessing the situation in the field, the Daoist priest also glanced at them, feeling a bit puzzled. However, he did not directly ask about Dong Yang Bo's intentions, but instead said in a roundabout way: "Daoist Friend Dongyang, you are bringing so many disciples of the Faux Core Realm, do you still have the strength to protect other disciples The disciples of Shangyuan Qingjing Palace and other sects affiliated with your sect also need Daoist Friend's personal protection, right Did they all fail to find the Ziwei Secret Scroll"

Dongyang Bo smiled slightly.

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

“Fellow Daoist Chongxi, you see I only brought two disciples here”

"To ensure fairness, we powerful individuals should not participate excessively in the competition for the Ziwu Secret Scroll. How could I put myself in the firing line"

“Tieguandao wants the sect to cultivate and rest, so this time only he ventured into the Purple Micro Palace alone. With Tieguandao's strength, there is no need for me to worry.”

“I have a way to make the five of them join forces and unleash power that surpasses their individual limits.”

As for the younger disciples of other sects, there won't be too many. I'll do my best to protect them all.

Chongyi Daochang nodded, and suddenly remembered something, surprised: "Tieguan Dao You left Shangyuan Qingjing Palace alone, isn't it almost time..."

Dongyang Bo let out a light sigh, "Indeed, Chong Yi Dao You remembers well."

"Iron Crown Daoist Friend's chance of forming an infant soul was considerable, and with the unique secret formulas of Shangyuan Qingjing Palace, he was certainly no worse than you and me back then. Yet, for the sake of protecting his sect, he was willing to cut off the path to forming an infant soul and resolutely sacrificed himself to the puppet raised by the talisman. It's truly admirable. Iron Crown Daoist Friend's daring solo venture into a dragon's lair could very well be with the determination that if unsuccessful, he would die gloriously But who knows what his chances of success are"

Dongyang Bo shook his head: "As far as I know, the Iron Crown Taoist had a death wish. Before he left, he had already passed on the position of Palace Master to his disciple Gong Liangyu..."

Before the words could leave his mouth, a sudden blue light appeared out of thin air.

That Liu surname cultivator stood respectfully at the city gate, not daring to obstruct him but instead respectfully said, "Greetings, senior with the iron crown."

The azure light faded, revealing a gaunt figure with an unnatural pallor. For a cultivator of such high cultivation, this was truly unexpected.

Tie Guanzi nodded to the Liu surnamed cultivator, then walked towards the two Yuan Ying cultivators, bowing and saying: "Tie Guanzi greets the two seniors."

Qin Sang secretly sized up Tie Guanzi, filled with curiosity.

Judging from Tieguanzi's words and actions, he doesn't seem to be facing two cultivators of the same realm. Instead, he acts like a senior addressing his juniors. Could it be that Tieguanzi is not a true Yuan Ying expert

The secret within, however, was beyond his comprehension.

"Lord Iron Palace, please do not be so formal."

Chong Yi Daochang and Dong Yang Bo bowed their hands in return.

After the arrival of Tie Guanzi, more people came, most of them holding the Ziwei Secret Record.

Finally, Qin Sang saw Yun Youzi hurry over.

The Cloud Wanderer seemed to be quite well-known in the Taiyi Danzong. His appearance not only surprised the Jindan cultivators surnamed Liu, but even the Daoist Chong Yi was startled and called him over.

"You are my disciple Why would you leave the sect to cultivate, prepare for forming the Golden Core, and instead put yourself in danger"

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

The Cloud-Traveling Son walked over and, with neither humility nor arrogance, said: "Report to the Master, disciple wishes to seek a spiritual herb in the Purple Micro Palace."

Chongyi Daochang frowned slightly, but did not continue to question him. He said faintly, "You should stay by your Master Liu's side and not stand with those loose cultivators."

When the cloud traveler arrived, there were noticeably fewer people behind him.

After a while, Grandma Jing arrived as well.

Qin Sang, who had been eagerly anticipating this, finally let out a sigh of relief.

Old Mrs. Jing still looked like an ordinary old woman, very unassuming. It seemed that no one present recognized her.

Elder Jing displayed her Purple Micro Scripture, glanced at Qin Sang, then found a secluded spot. She leaned on her cane and closed her eyes to cultivate her spirit.

Another hour passed, and twilight was approaching. It was past the sixth hour of the day when two more cultivators at the Core Formation stage arrived late.

Donghuang Bo cast his gaze around, his voice deep and solemn: "The time has come! For those of you who still hesitate, this is your last chance. Once you leave Xuan Keng Pass, there will be no turning back!"

A murmur ran through the crowd, but no one dared to speak.

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

Dongyang Bo nodded to Chongyi Daochang. Chongyi Daochang raised his hand lightly, and a jade ruyi flew out of his sleeve. The jade ruyi circled and flew to mid-air, growing larger and larger until it was the size of a flying boat.

The figure of Chongyi Daochang flickered, disappearing into thin air.

Then, the voice of Chongyi Daochang came from above.

Come on up!

Everyone was astonished by the marvelous escape technique of Daoist Chongyi. Without hesitation, they all flew into the air. Even with everyone inside, the Jade Wishing Rod still seemed quite spacious.

"Dongyang Daoist friend, I will lead the way ahead. How about you take charge at the rear" asked Chongyi Daochang. island.A protective barrier formed a light curtain.The lightning strike hit the spirit array with a deafening roar. The light curtain violently fluctuated, absorbing some of the lightning's power bef...
