but they also understood that this miraculous elixir was not something Zhao Yan could possess. It would ultimately fall into the hands of the headmaster of Kuiyin Sect, or perhaps some Jindan cultiva...But he keenly sensed something amiss, he wasn't completely out of the game.

The opponent wasn't originally coming for him; their target was those mysterious people who wielded thunder magic. Along the way, a cloaked figure realized his identity and suddenly changed his target, deciding to take him out first.

Since their formation was unstable, the others couldn't support them in time.

>

As Qin Sang guessed, they unexpectedly discovered the murderer who killed their junior brother and eliminated him.

In their eyes, Qin Sang had first manipulated the Heaven-Freezing Windstorm Array to hunt demons, consuming a lot of energy. He was then struck by lightning and was already severely injured, at his wit's end. The fourth senior brother could easily eliminate him.

>

Compared to Qin Sang, those disciples of Lan Dou Men who had just cast thunder techniques and were still weak were more important, as they were related to the mission of this trip.

If it was for one person that those Lan Dou Gate deserters escaped, and lost a great opportunity, then that would be truly regretful. So the others still went straight to the Lan Dou Gate deserters, just waving the Beast King Banner to help their fourth senior brother.

The Celestial Eye Butterfly banished the Star Calamity, restoring normalcy. Under Qin Sang's order, it opened the Celestial Eye.

The hooded man waved a strange flag.

The beast soul roared, leaping from the banner, charging forth.

Ahead, a dazzling expanse of gold stretched before them, like a golden wall pressing down with immense power. Beastly roars echoed through the air, shaking hearts to their core.

Qin Sang's expression was solemn, but there was a hint of mockery in his eyes.

The monstrous aura of the flag-bearers seemed fearsome, but under the watchful eyes of Heaven, there was nowhere to hide. The enemy formation was incomplete, their flag array riddled with vulnerabilities from the start. Qin Sang easily found the point of breakthrough.

He increased his speed, crashing headfirst into the beast soul.

When the fourth senior brother saw Qin Sang take the initiative to send himself into the beast soul's mouth, a smile appeared on his face, then froze abruptly.

In the moment it was consumed by gold.

Qin Sang had anticipated this, his figure coming to a sudden halt before swiftly shifting sideways several dozen meters. He easily dodged the beast soul's attack, passing straight through between the two beast souls.

>

Despite being trapped within the Beast King Banner Formation, Qin Sang's face showed not a shred of panic.

The beast soul surged forward again.

Within the golden light, there were threads of gold hidden, connecting to the soul beast. These threads themselves were as sharp as knives. Those lightly caught would be entangled, while those heavily caught would be dismembered.

But with the help of Tianmu Butterfly, Qin Sang not only knew the movements of the beast souls like the back of his hand, but could also easily distinguish the locations where those silk threads were hidden.

If it were a complete formation, it would indeed be very troublesome. Now, it's impossible to trap Qin Sang.

Only seeing him surrounded by dragon shadows, he moved up and down in the golden light. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared several dozen feet away.

Not only did the beast souls that pursued him miss, but even the golden threads that were sent to strangle him fell short, easily dodged, leaving Qin Sang unharmed.

The Black Robe finally felt something was amiss.

The opponent seems to be very proficient in the way of formations, easily finding the flaws.

In a fury, the robed man swung his Beast King Banner at lightning speed, but to no avail. He watched helplessly as Qin Sang approached him. To his even greater rage, Qin Sang proactively summoned his spirit sword and attacked him.

The ebony sword slashed through the golden light, moving with incredible speed.

The robed man's face was furious, he still didn't believe Qin Sang could escape his grasp. He sent a voice transmission to his other brothers, transforming into another form with even greater power.

The golden light became even more dazzling.

One by one, the beast souls self-destructed, transforming into golden energy that merged into the threads. In the next moment, even denser threads appeared, forming a series of large nets.

The robed man gestured with his hand toward the ebony sword, and a golden net surged forward.

‘Bang! Bang!’

The ebony sword flashed repeatedly, shattering the golden net.

Finally, a golden net enveloped the ebony sword, but unexpectedly, the ebony sword shattered inch by inch.

The hooded figure looked intently and saw that it was a sword light.

"Sword light divides!"

The Black Robed Man was startled, and in a rage, continued his search, once again catching the essence of the Ebony Sword.

Although the golden nets failed one after another, this was within the Beast King Banner Formation. There were countless golden nets, and no matter how agile the Ebony Sword was, it was eventually entangled.

As the ebony sword was about to break through, it was wrapped in a golden net. More golden nets surged forward.

“Having stolen your natal magic treasure, I wonder how much longer you can struggle!”

The hooded man sneered, urging the grand formation to forcefully suppress the Ebony Sword.

Just then, a strange blood light flashed past his eyes. Before he could react, it pounced onto the Beast King Banner.

The lone Beast King Staff, not a treasure of exceptional quality to begin with, was struck by the Blood-Stained Divine Light. Its glow vanished instantly, followed by a 'crack' as it shattered into pieces.

The Beast King Banner was destroyed directly!

The hooded man was stunned, not yet understanding what had happened.

Within the great formation, all the Beast King Banners' energies were interconnected. Any incident affecting a single Beast King Banner would have repercussions on the entire formation. From Qin Sang's perspective, this meant the formation's weaknesses had become even more pronounced.

This is a line of text.

A large expanse of golden nets vanished without a trace. Qin Sang moved smoothly, unimpeded, and sped towards the outer edge of the formation at lightning speed. The distance between him and the cloaked figure rapidly narrowed.

The robed man was in a panic, trying to repair the large formation. Seeing this scene, he realized there was no time left. He made a decisive choice, ready to fight Qin Sang with his magic weapon.

But Qin Sang wouldn't give him that chance.

When her identity was exposed, Qin Sang's mind raced, calculating ways to escape.

Even without using the Bloodstained Divine Light, breaking through the formation isn't too difficult. However, after breaking through, you will be entangled by the robed man and might even attract other opponents to attack you.

Therefore, he had to get rid of this obstacle as quickly as possible and escape. To this end, Qin Sang spared no expense, using the bleeding Divine Light after exhausting his reserves, and even the Star Snail, which he rarely used, was unleashed without hesitation.

A sharp crack of air pierced my ears.

The robed man felt a nameless terror grip him. To his horror, he saw a pinpoint of brilliant blue light appear in his vision. He offered almost no resistance as the Star Conch pierced him.

'Pffft!'

A transparent hole appeared on the front of the robed man's chest, and after a moment, fresh blood spurted out. His figure froze in mid-air, his eyes wide with disbelief, his face contorted in shock.

He wielded immense power, eliminating a weak individual to avenge his younger disciple.

This is the end of a paragraph.

> Unrevenged, he staked his own life.

"Pfft!"

The Black Robe's body was thrown into the sea.

The star snail took this person's life, returned, and landed in Qin Sang's palm.

Qin Sang swept out of the formation, retracting his Xingluo Star Shell and with a flick of his hand, grabbed the black-robed man's corpse. Upon closer inspection, it was indeed a member of the Wu clan. After taking the man's belongings, Qin Sang prepared to seize the several Beast King Flags he had controlled, when a furious roar echoed from afar.

The Black Robe's companions have already found out.

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

Qin Sang sneered, not even glancing at those people. He released a surge of true energy, enveloping the several Beast King Banners, and pulled them back with force. Unexpectedly, a powerful resistance came from the banners.

"Um"

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

Qin Sang realized that those people were using the connection between the Beast King Flags to fight him.

A treasure within reach, there's no reason to give up.

After a moment's thought, Qin Sang urged the Ten Directions Yama Banner to unfurl, summoning demonic flames that enveloped the Beast King Banner.
