Chapter 461: The Murky World of People

in appearance but differed greatly in temperament."These are the Xiu sisters, who are skilled in a combined sword technique called Flowing Wave Sword. It can be both rigid and flexible, transforming...In the gentle moonlight, Qin Sang couldn't help but be stunned.

How could such a woman appear in the mortal realm

Having witnessed the ever-changing tides of the world, she still remains detached, spending her days in tranquility alongside a solitary lamp in the Moon Palace. This must be her true destination.

Here is the translation:

Facing this woman, Qin Sang actually felt a sense of shame.

He was a man of this turbid world.

Having witnessed the transformation of Qingluan from a wooden sculpture to a living being, and back again into wood, Qin Sang suspected that this woman might also be a puppet carved by Granny Jing.

But when Qin Sang saw the woman's true form, he wavered again.

How powerful a puppetry technique must it be to create someone so real, so perfect

It was me.

The woman nodded gently, admitting that she was Old Mrs. Jing.

Her voice had also changed, not as aloof and distant as her temperament used to be. It was softer now, but still held a hint of coldness and loneliness, like the cold moonlight illuminating a solitary moon in the night sky.

"Is it really you"

Qin Sang exclaimed, "Could it be that the predecessors were all in disguise before This is your true appearance"

Jing Po didn't explain, but instead calmly countered with a question, "Is there really any difference between the me before and the me now After all, it's just a skin."

Okay, I'm just an ordinary person.

Qin Sang secretly smiled wryly, and did not continue to ask. However, he saw Granny Jing walk out from under the jade pillar, slightly raise her head, and gaze at the towering Finger Sky Peak.

“Would you like to go outside your master's cave and take a look”

Qin Sang was startled. He looked up and, following Old Madam Jing's gaze, could only see clouds swirling about.

The next moment, Qin Sang suddenly tensed up. He was carried by Old Madam Jing and flew straight into the sky. The wind roared in his ears, and in his vision, Shaohua Mountain sank rapidly.

In a blink of an eye, white clouds were within reach.

The clouds only reached halfway up Mount Shao Hua. Above them was a snow-capped peak that seemed to pierce the heavens, its end almost touching the ninefold winds of heaven.

With Qin Sang's eyesight, standing here one could faintly see a stone gate on the cliff face at the peak.

On the stone gate, there were incredibly complex runes etched, radiating a mysterious glow. Qin Sang couldn't decipher any of them.

A howling cold wind and snow filled the sky, yet they couldn't penetrate within ten zhang of Shimen.

“Enough”

Jing's grandmother turned her head and glanced at Qin Sang.

I'm not saying it's enough, are you going to barge in

Qin Sang chuckled wryly, he realized for the first time that his heart was so fragile, unable to withstand such turmoil. “Enough! Enough! This junior has believed…”

Troubled waters of the chaotic islands.

Qin Sang sat listlessly in his cave, one hand clutching a ball of silk thread while the other held the wooden carving given to him by Old Lady Jing, flipping it over and over again.

Everything that just happened felt like a dream, so unreal. After walking back and forth through the sect, he was fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the cave abode of Grandmaster Yuanying. Only when he returned to his own cave did he come to his senses.

When they returned to the waters of Luan Island, Jing Grandmother left, leaving him only with the Star Spirit Web and this wooden carving.

Before, Qin Sang still thought the wood carving was so realistic and perfect.

Only those who have seen the real thing can truly understand that it is far superior to any imitation.

Qin Sang's thoughts were restless, her mind kept replaying the same question.

What is Jing Po's actual strength

Even a powerful sorceress like She-po wouldn't be able to come and go freely in Shaohua Mountain without fear of being discovered by Dongyang Bo, would she

There's such a huge gap between the Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core stages.

The gap between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul realms is certainly vast, like an unbridgeable chasm. In Xiaohan Domain, there are so many cultivators at the Core Formation stage, but how many Nascent Soul experts are there

Could Elder Jing be a hidden Yuan Ying expert

Qin Sang was startled by his own thoughts, his eyes flickering.

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

If he could form a good relationship with a powerful cultivator of the Yuan Ying realm, Qin Sang would be happy even if he didn't receive any benefits. Not to mention, Granny Jing promised to help him obtain the most Xingyuan Stones in exchange for Xue Linglian and Yan Tailing flowers.

However, Qin Sang also understood that this would turn it into a transaction. Once this was settled, they would each owe nothing to the other.

Good fortune is not that easy to come by.

At his own cultivation level, he was of no value whatsoever to a master of Jing Po's caliber.

Cold and aloof, keeping people at arm's length, that is Jing Po's true temperament. The old woman in Wuyuefang market was just a disguise for her travels through the mundane world.

As for why Granny Jing secluded herself in Wuyue Market, Qin Sang didn't dare to ask.

"Pointing at the Tianfeng mountain..."

Qin Sang silently glanced in the southeast direction, tidying up all distractions and entering a state of meditation.

Awoke again by the token.

Qin Sang suddenly stood up, taking the spirit stone into his palm. He was about to stride out quickly when he stopped abruptly, reaching into his chest and pressing it. The wooden carving was hidden there.

Old Mrs. Jing said that wooden carvings cannot be put into a mustard seed bag and must be carried on the body.

Fortunately, no matter how you look at it, this is just an ordinary, unremarkable peach wood carving. If anyone asks about it, Qin Sang can easily explain it away.

Cultivation isn't about severing ties with the world, eradicating seven emotions and six desires. Cultivators are merely mortals who have mastered powerful forces, at least those in the Foundation Establishment period.

Who hasn't found a spiritual refuge

Having seen how Granny Jing used her wooden carvings, Qin Sang remembered the year she had bought a peachwood sword from Granny Jing as payment for the trade with the sisters of Lejia.

Just like the wooden sculptures of Qingluan and Granny Jing, Qin Sang couldn't see anything unusual about the peachwood sword.

Wouldn't it also have great power

A powerful being travels the mortal world, meeting destined individuals. On a whim, they leave behind an opportunity for fate.

When destined people encounter danger, they realize the true role of fate. It not only saves their lives but also propels them to success.

This kind of story is also very popular in the world of cultivating immortals.

Unfortunately, Qin Sang had overthought things. Granny Jing clearly stated that all the items in her shop were ordinary wood carvings, and the sword Qin Sang bought was no exception.

However, this wooden sculpture was crafted using Elder Jing's unique technique. Its sole purpose might be to inspire any mortal sculptor who beholds it with a surge of newfound skill.

Hidding the woodcarving, Qin Sang took a deep breath and walked out of the cave. He rode a cloud toward Guixing Island.

Met Senior Brother Rong on the road again.

Elder Rong's expression was grave, and his spirits were low.

After greeting each other, they flew silently towards Stargazing Island.

They arrived at Stargazing Island, and after a short wait, thirty-three masters gathered one by one. The island was eerily silent. Everyone occupied their designated positions without any chatter.

After a short while, the depths of Guānxīng Island suddenly brightened, followed by five streaks of light flying in one after another.

The very first person was the Snake Woman.

Apart from the Snake Woman, Deputy Island Master Xiao is also among them. The remaining three are also late stage Jindan cultivators.

"This old woman and Master Xiao will take the lead. All of you gather the other Daoist friends and follow us later," said She-婆's voice.

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

"Yes, sir!"

The other three vanished in an instant, flying toward the righteous cultivators and scattered immortals.

"Come up!"

With a flick of her wrist, the snake bracelet on the Snake Woman's arm detached and transformed into a giant python. Its vertical pupils emitted a cold and sinister gaze as it swept over Qin Sang and his companions.

Everyone was secretly startled and hastily set up their escape lights, carefully stepping onto the back of the giant python.equivalent to Shangguan Lifeng having no defenses against Qin Sang at all. As long as Qin Sang's evil thoughts arose, he could easily take Shangguan Lifeng's life.Unexpectedly, Shangguan Lifeng readil...
