Luckily, he doesn't need to delve int...Soon, Qin Sang opened his eyes. The ebony sword lay still yet moved with a sudden burst of speed, flying to the edge of the mirror array.

At this time, there was no movement inside the mirror array. The boy in fine clothes seemed to have been affected by the bewildering effect of the Mò Shén Mirror.

Qin Sang commanded the Obsidian Sword to hover before the Mirror Array. He took a deep breath, then reached out and retracted the Bewildering Mirror entirely. Without waiting for the mist to dissipate, he moved his mind, and the Obsidian Sword immediately shot forward into the heart of the array.

Then, a sharp 'ding' sound echoed through the mist.

As the mist slowly dissipated, the ebony sword was seen to be held fast by a crescent-shaped curved blade. The two weapons were evenly matched, locked in a stalemate in mid-air, neither able to advance an inch.

The handsomely dressed young man's face was full of shock and anger as he cried out, "You have a talisman too No, how is your talisman so strange"

Qin Sang coldly stared at him without speaking, her heart also pounding with a sudden fear. She didn't expect this person to be able to resist the soul-seducing ability of the Bewitching Mirror. The young man in strong clothing had a gray cloth hat on his head, something she hadn't seen before. It must be the effect of this magical artifact.

What surprised Qin Sang even more was that curved blade. Judging from the boy's tone, it seemed to be a magic treasure.

This was Qin Sang's first time seeing Fu Bao. The curved blade resembled a crescent moon, slightly larger than the ebony sword. It emitted an icy chill and was incredibly sharp, no wonder it could rival the ebony sword.

He was preparing a jet-black sword outside, while the energetic young man pretended to be enchanted, actually preparing talismans and treasures in the mirror formation. Unexpectedly, the two of them coincidentally went to the same place.

Qin Sang now deeply regretted his actions. Even using the Ebony Sword, he couldn't kill the opponent. If he had known how difficult this youth was to deal with, he would have definitely avoided him.

Now, the ebony sword pressed against the crescent moon blade, neither man dared to yield an inch. To do so would mean certain death in that instant, and if they remained locked in this stalemate, it was anyone's guess who would emerge victorious.

Even the dashing young man had thought of this, his face turning very ugly. He certainly didn't want to lose his life here for no reason, and he couldn't simply die with them either. His life was far more valuable than that of an ordinary wandering cultivator.

Thinking of this, the young man in dashing attire secretly gritted his teeth and poured all his spiritual energy into the crescent moon blade. The crescent moon blade's cold light surged, causing the ebony sword to falter step by step.

Qin Sang's face changed slightly, and he didn't dare hesitate. He urged the Wumu sword and forcefully pressed the crescent moon knife against him.

At this time, the spiritual energy within both of them was being consumed frantically.

Soon, Qin Sang felt a crisp sound in his palm. The spiritual energy he held was completely shattered, becoming a useless stone. Qin Sang immediately replaced it with a new one. The young man in the opposite ornate attire naturally did the same. But compared to the frenzied consumption, the spiritual energy replenished by the spirit stones was merely a drop in the bucket.

The dashing young man's expression shifted erratically before he suddenly shouted, "You are definitely not a wandering cultivator. Which family's disciple are you"

Qin Sang's heart moved, and he said in a deep voice, "I am just an independent cultivator!"

The dashing young man let out an unconvinced "hmph." "A wandering cultivator could never possibly have such a vast fortune, talisman treasures are not something a wandering cultivator can possess. Even if you don't admit it, I can guess. You didn't come here to join the Yuantong Sect, you just want to train and collect some useful magic weapons along the way."

Hearing this, Qin Sang was surprised and retorted, "Is this your purpose"

"That's right!"

The handsomely dressed young man wasn't trying to hide his arrogance as he said, "I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm the most gifted descendant in my family. I don't lack foundation-building pills, so of course I wouldn't become a menial disciple of Yuanguang Sect. This is my second time participating in the Yuanguang Sect Ascension Conference. This Qingye magic artifact was taken from someone last time, it's very useful. But like you, such a difficult opponent, this is the first time I've encountered. Since our goals are the same, there's no need to fight to the death. How about we shake hands and make peace In the future, let's just avoid each other."

Qin Sang sneered, "You're wrong. I joined the Ascension Ceremony to join Yuanguangmen. But as long as you put away the talisman treasure first, I can promise you, I'll stop here."

"Are you taking me for a fool"

The teenage boy, dressed in fine clothes, was furious. He turned his hand over and took out the jade bottle containing the elixir, as if he was about to swallow it whole.

Qin Sang naturally couldn't lose face. She ignored the pain and took out a top-grade spirit stone from her storage, putting on an all-or-nothing air.

The dashing young man's face stiffened, his eyes flickering uncertainly for a long while before he finally gritted out, "Fine! I admit defeat today! You want to join the Yuànzhào Sect, don't you I have four jade tokens here, all yours. They can buy you off."

Saying that, the stylish young man took out the jade pendants and threw them all to the ground, seemingly truly indifferent to them.

Qin Sang glanced at the jade token on the ground, a contemplative expression appearing on his face. Then, his eyes suddenly narrowed as he stared intently at the young man. “With your abilities, since you're here to train, why not proactively seek out opponents instead of setting up traps in such a remote location, waiting for prey Unless you are certain that someone will definitely pass through here, and their strength is no weakling. Or your jade tokens are definitely more than four. Or you already know that anyone going to the core area must pass through here. Am I right”

The well-dressed young man blushed slightly, opened his mouth, but was cut off by Qin Sang. "Don't tell me that these two coincidences happened to land you in the same area. That line would fool only fools."

The young man in stylish attire was speechless for a long time, and finally he smiled wryly: “You came too soon. I only have four jade tokens in my possession.”

Qin Sang's eyes narrowed slightly, "So..."

The stylish young man nodded. “That’s right, I have a map of the八卦禁地. Although the 元照門 now occupies the 八卦禁地, it was jointly controlled by several forces before the treasures were looted clean. This map of mine came from that time. If you are willing to give up, I can give you a copy. The map has a shortcut that can guide you past the dangers ahead and ensure you get a spot, but you must swear not to reveal it!”

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

Qin Sang said: "I swear you wouldn't believe me. I can only tell you, I would never do anything that doesn't benefit me. You were just muddying the waters at the Ascension Conference, and Yuanguang Gate is a major righteous sect. Would they really chase after you for such a trivial matter"

“The righteous path is the most important”

>

The handsomely dressed youth sneered, "You really think highly of them. Have you ever considered why they would go to such lengths to hold the ascension ceremony in this forbidden zone, risking so many lives every time"

Qin Sangqi said, "Why"

The restrictions of the Gossip Forbidden Land were on the verge of collapse two hundred years ago, but the Yuanguang Gate found a secret method to prolong them until now. Since then, the Yuanguang Gate's Ascension Ceremony has been moved into the forbidden land, and the rules have been changed... What is right What is evil

The young man, with a smirk on his face, took out a jade slip. "This is the map," he said. "You and I will both withdraw our talismans at the same time, and I'll give it to you."

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

Qin Sang gently shook her head, "Wait a..."

The young man in fashionable clothes suddenly flared up, "You think I'm really afraid of you! If you go any further, even if I die, I can drag you down with me!"shadow instantly, and in a moment, they burned it to ashes, leaving not a trace behind.Then, the flames were all gathered into the lotus seed.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to tr...
