Chapter 697: Path

a surprise on Tianshan Mountain”“Greetings, Daoist Dongyun, I hope you are well.”Morning smoke bowed its hands and did not reply.Dongyang Bo chuckled, "Daoist Dongyun, why are you here alone Did the...After going through many hardships, Qin Sang had become much more shrewd. He always wore a small pouch at his waist, which contained various items used to deceive others' eyes.

To avoid encountering a similar situation to the drifting river again and having my thousand-jin amulet snatched away.

Noticing the faint feeling of being watched behind him disappear, Qin Sang sneered in his heart and quickly walked back to the stone house, carefully setting up several layers of forbidden spirit arrays.

Holding the bone flute, Qin Sang hesitated for a long time before finally choosing to tie it with a rope and hang it around his neck, hiding it inside his breastplate.

Please note that the original text was empty, so the translation is also empty.

He did not dare to let the two bone flutes touch here.

The marketplace is full of masters, but it's not a place of peace.

The power of the bone flute is related to the celestial force. If they meet, it will likely trigger some kind of phenomenon and won't be able to hide it. It will attract others' attention, which could be dangerous.

Just to be safe, Qin Sang suppressed his curiosity and waited until the trade fair ended. Over the next two days, Qin Sang often went out for a stroll but there were no more significant gains.

Qin Sang felt the restriction outside the stone house being touched, and woke up from his meditation. With a sweep of his divine sense, he discovered that it was the people from the marketplace standing outside. Knowing that the trade was about to begin, he pushed the door open.

This person, seeing Qin Sang, bowed and said: "Senior, the trading fair is about to begin. Allow me to lead you there now."

Qin Sang recalled the harvest of the past few days as he walked toward the largest stone house in the innermost layer.

He had already bought most of what he needed, so even if he didn't participate in this trade fair, he would still be returning home with a full load. He attended the trade fair mainly to inquire about the route to the Thousand Demon Sea.

The Hunyuan Tongxin Ring is not a necessity, but without this magic treasure, he wouldn't be safe in the Sea of Demons.

Now he can also stop thinking about the Hun Yuan Tong Xin Huan and go somewhere else to hunt demons.

But from the increasingly chaotic situation outside Hutian Island, it can also be seen that in the future, finding a paradise in the already opened seas will be difficult.

Unless both sides lay down their arms, they will sooner or later be affected.

When the time comes, if you don't want to be caught in the chaos, you can only be forced into unknown waters. By then, the role of Hunyuan Tongxin Huan will be irreplaceable.

Qin Sang couldn't afford to neglect preparedness.

Of course, if it's truly impossible to cross the Thousand Demon Sea, Qin Sang couldn't force it.

A guard was stationed before the stone house, but when Qin Sang and the other person approached, he didn't obstruct them, but instead respectfully bowed.

Qin Sang pushed open the door and saw that in the spacious stone house, there were over thirty chairs, and most of them were already occupied.

"There are so many golden pills here"

Qin Sang was secretly surprised and looked around, but saw that some familiar faces were the managers from several of the most famous trading houses.

Originally, major trade associations also sent people to participate.

Then, Qin Sang saw several familiar figures. They nodded to each other and, under a few scrutinizing glances, walked to a corner and sat down on a chair, waiting quietly for the trade fair to begin.

Hancuo was not there.

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

Two days ago, Han Cu reportedly spent all his savings to buy a long-desired treasure. So, he left the market ahead of the trading session and bid farewell to Qin Sang.

Before leaving, Han Chu repeatedly hinted at inviting Qin Sang to join his team, but Qin Sang politely declined. He didn't want to get entangled with the cultivators from Huntian Island for now and made an agreement with Han Chu to meet on the island later.

Qin Sang waited for a moment, and some more people came in. The chairs were almost full.

At this time, the old man sitting innermost, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up. He attracted everyone's attention and then spoke in a loud voice: "Today, there are so many fellow cultivators here, including several new ones. This old man feels honored. I believe all fellow cultivators are eager to begin. This old man will not waste any more time. The rules of the trading meeting are very simple. Take turns displaying treasures, and then state the conditions for exchange. Once a deal is reached, it cannot be revoked. This old man is incompetent, but he can act as a witness…"

The old man said a few simple words and then sat back down.

Everyone was clearly familiar with the procedure. They looked at each other, and a female cultivator sitting by the door took out two items from her pouch and displayed them to the crowd. "A demon pill and a damaged magic artifact, in exchange for something like spiritual water. The terms of the exchange can be determined based on the value of the spiritual water..."

This treasure was clearly damaged in the battle, and very badly so, but no one paid attention to that. They all urged their divine sense onto the treasure, and after a moment, someone began to communicate with the female cultivator.

Besides the magic treasure, that demon pill was from a nascent stage Black Brine Pig demon. It wasn't easy for a female cultivator to hunt down such a demon.

Although there are countless demon beasts in the Demon Sea, the value of demon pills remains high, and many people are tempted.

Not everyone is like Qin Sang, able to come and go as the wind, easily hunting beasts of the same rank.

Qin Sang was uninterested in the magic treasure and demonic pill, sitting there quietly.

Soon, the female cultivator got what she was satisfied with, and it was the next person's turn. Time passed, one treasure after another was taken out, some people achieved their wishes, while others left disappointed.

Qin Sang had not seen any treasure that moved him until now, only a thunder gate crane demon beast egg, which stirred something within him.

The eggs of demonic beasts are also extremely valuable treasures here. Hatching a demonic beast and raising it yourself, taming it into your own spirit beast, and never worrying about betrayal.

However, the difficulty of raising spirit beasts is not a bit lower than that of raising spirit insects.

Qin Sang wanted to raise two spirit insects. Raising another spirit beast would be too much of a drain on his energy. The Mixed Origin Concentric Ring, however, could directly control one demon beast and wouldn't require so much time and effort to cultivate.

The reason why the Hunyuan Tongxin Ring requires so many extraordinarily precious spiritual materials is that its grade after refining is only inferior. Most of this is related to it.

There's a reason why the Yuling Sect considers this a treasure.

Unfortunately, the Hun Yuan Tong Xin Huan can only control demon beasts in their early stage of cultivation. Once Qin Sang broke through to the later stage of forming a core, this effect became less noticeable.

After a while, someone took out a demon pill from a poisonous fish to sell.

Qin Sang had been looking for this kind of demon pill to see if the fat silkworm could devour it, but he hadn't been able to find one. Now that he finally saw it, he immediately participated in the trade. After some bargaining, he exchanged it for another demon pill and a demon corpse.

Finally, it was Qin Sang's turn.

In the eyes of everyone, Qin Sang calmly took out three demon pills and a magic treasure.

Seeing that Qin Sang was able to take out so many demon pills, everyone's eyes towards him changed, revealing a look of fear.

“I need the Soul Grass and the Wan Shi Zhāng…”

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

Qin Sang went on to list several spiritual herbs and elixirs, finally saying, "Besides these, I'd also like to inquire about a way to cross the Thousand Demon Sea. The price is negotiable."

Upon hearing this, the crowd who had been fixated on the treasure before Qin Sang all shifted their gazes to him in astonishment.

“Friend, are you planning to go to the Thousand Demon Sea now Aren't you afraid of being robbed and killed by those evil cultivators there”

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Sang chuckled, "I never said I'm going now. Even if things settle down later, that road will probably be difficult to travel. But I will have reasons to go there in the future, so I'll just have to buy another way." light.The Black Tower Array was extremely complex, vast in scope, and ever-changing. It was difficult to grasp the entire structure of the array at first glance. Qin Sang could only follow Lei Nianzh...
