Chapter 858: Hunting Demons
ang couldn't tell if its power was great or small, so he dared not rashly alarm it. He remained on high alert, pretending everything was normal as he opened the Xuan Tie heavy gate. Only then did he t...The shopkeeper received the payment and left.
Qin Sang secretly observed the young man.
This person's appearance is handsome, his cultivation has already reached the late stage of forming alchemy, his aura is hidden, and he is even more unfathomable than Yue Xiannu.
More importantly, there wasn't a trace of demonic aura on this person. This means that either this person had already used elixir to remove the demonic aura or they hadn't taken the Demonic Suppression Pill and had comprehended the alchemy process on their own.
Over the years, Qin Sang has encountered very few high-level cultivators in the Dan stage who are similar to young people.
To resist the allure of the Sha Yao Dan, one needs not only sufficient talent but also an unyielding will. The strength of a young cultivator must certainly surpass that of other cultivators at the same realm.

"Fang was beset by troubles and unable to personally visit Tianxing Island to see his friends, so he could only trouble his friends to make a trip, hoping they wouldn't mind," the young man surnamed Fang said with a bow.
Qin Sang gave a carefree smile. "Fang Daoist, you flatter me. As long as the matter can be accomplished, Qin won't mind running a trip."
"Qin, my friend, you are straightforward! Let me be blunt, I have a matter of great importance and am seeking someone with formidable strength to help. The previous friends I invited unfortunately encountered unexpected circumstances and cannot go. Fortunately, the shopkeeper highly recommended Qin..."
The young man surnamed Fang spoke eloquently, explaining the reason.
Qin Sang nodded silently, listened, then looked at the mountain peak and said, "I wonder how many friends Daoist Fang has invited, or is it just the two of us"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A young man surnamed Fang shook his head, "There are still a few fellow cultivators meditating on the peak, all invited by Fang to help. They will go with us. If Fellow Cultivator Qin agrees to lend a hand, I will introduce you to them."
"Qin certainly had intentions."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang said in a low voice, "But Qin doesn't know the purpose of Daoist friends and cannot make a decision."
>
The young man surnamed Fang smiled, “Actually, there’s nothing to hide. Fang’s purpose is very simple, I want to ask a few Taoist friends to help me hunt down a demonic beast.”
"Hunt demons"
Qin Sang was startled, furrowed his brow and said, "Could it be that they're going to the Demon Sea"
The current Demon Sea is no different from a dragon's lair, he barely escaped, and he doesn't want to jump back in headfirst.
The young man with the surname Fang shook his head, "It's not the Sea of Demons, that demonic beast is within our Inner Sea. Everyone knows the situation in the Sea of Demons; I, Fang, dare not risk my life for a single demon beast."
He wasn't just good at dealing with demons, he was a seasoned demon hunter who had even teamed up with others to slay a giant turtle in the late Demon Core stage.
Qin Sang relaxed his expression, sizing the young man up and down. "With your cultivation level, ordinary monsters shouldn't pose a problem, right Could it be a late-stage demonic beast"
Such a large-scale demon is not easy to hunt even in the Demon Sea. Even if you encounter it, the first thing to consider is escape, not hunting demons.
Now there are definitely a lot of them outside the Great Wasteland, it just depends on whether you have the skill to hunt demons.
A powerful bloodline divine ability, even a Yuan Ying ancestor would find it troublesome. If the young man surnamed Fang's target was such a monster, it's no wonder he needed help.
“Very good, the demon that Fang has his eyes on is indeed a late-stage demonic core demon with extraordinary talent and unusual magical powers. Its strength is not comparable to ordinary demons. To ensure absolute success, Fang has also prepared a set of spirit formations. Those fellow cultivators are currently practicing the changes in the formation…”
But when Qin Sang pressed for more, the young man surnamed Fang refused to say what kind of monster it was, no matter what.
“Friend Qin, please do not ask any further. Fang will not speak until the very end.”
A young man surnamed Fang declared resolutely, "That monstrous beast is quite rare. It possesses a spirit creature, which is exactly what this one cultivates. That's why I'm willing to pay such a hefty price and ask for your help, fellow cultivators. After the deed is done, the corpse of the beast will belong to me entirely. You are not allowed to take even a shred!"
The reward promised by the young man surnamed Fang left Qin Sang a little disappointed, it was only one high-grade spirit stone.
“That monster is in the North Sea It would probably take several months to go back and forth. To run this far for a high-grade spirit stone…”
Qin Sang hesitated for a moment.
The young man surnamed Fang said impatiently, "It's just a demon hunt. Fellow Daoist Qin only needs to preside over the formation. How many spirit stones do you want"
>
Qin Sang glanced at the young man and smiled bitterly: "Qin Mou still needs at least six high-grade spirit stones."
>
"Six!"
The young man with the surname Fang frowned deeply, "Let alone that I don't have so many high-grade spirit stones in my hands, even if I did, it would be impossible to offer so much for a single demon beast. The helpers I invited aren't just Daoist friends, I'm afraid even selling everything I own wouldn't be enough! So...since I'm currently short of manpower, Daoist Qin, if you can fully cooperate with me in hunting down that demon beast, after the success, I can give you one more piece and forge a good relationship."
This person looks very wealthy and generous!
Qin Sang readily agreed to his invitation, while also calculating in his heart how to get along with this person. He could kill two birds with one stone and get another high-grade spirit stone from him to refine the Ten Directions Hellfire Banner Spirit Stone.
After agreeing, the two companions set off together to climb to the summit.
Coming to a cave at the back of the mountain, Qin Sang felt a chill coming from inside. The aura of the cultivator he had sensed before was within the cave. He looked at the young man in surprise.
>
“This ice cave was discovered by accident by someone surnamed Fang. There is a cold pool inside,” the young man surnamed Fang said as he led him down, “Using the chill of the cold pool, that formidable Sky-Cold Windstorm Formation was forged…”
The two walked quickly into the cave, and the cold air below became even more biting, with white mist swirling.
After rounding several bends, a spacious cavern came into view. In the center of the cavern was a pool of water, emitting a thick chill but remaining unfrozen.
At the edge of the pond, four people sat cross-legged, each holding a crystal tablet in their hands.
Four crystal steles were identical in appearance, their energies intertwined.
>
Four people poured their true essence into the crystal stele. The crystal stele released a strong chill, evolving into small cold currents between them, gathering and dispersing from time to time.
These people are practicing formations, but a spirit formation requires five people to be complete. Missing one person, the changes are much fewer.
The two of them remained silent, watching quietly as they practiced the final transformation.
Qin Sang's gaze fell upon one of the burly men with a thick beard, and his expression changed.
"Qiu Dao friend"
The four of them put away the crystal tablet. The burly man immediately stood up and walked over with a laugh, "I didn't expect the last helper to be Qin Daoist! With Qin Daoist here, I feel relieved. A mere little demon can certainly be caught."
>
"You guys know each other Seems like no need for Mr. Fang to introduce..."
The young man surnamed Fang smiled and looked at them, his face showing no abnormality.
Qin Sang nodded lightly, dodging the burly man's bear hug without making a sound, and bowed to him.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
This person surnamed Qiu was also a hermit from Mount Baogushan. He was extremely proficient in the Golden Path Art, and his cultivation had reached the bottleneck of the late stage. He was someone Qin Sang met during his practice on Mount Baogushan.
If you were to ask about the depth of our friendship, it's hard to say.
He just seemed to be a very sociable person, getting along well with everyone. Besides the man surnamed Qiu, there was another face that seemed familiar. I had seen him before but never spoken to him.
"XFang didn't lie, they were all cultivators recruited by Tianxing City."
Qin Sang secretly nodded.otected by the Jade Buddha and remained unharmed, but his physical body began to feel a chill. Soon, a bone-chilling cold invaded his entire being, threatening to freeze him solid.Only then did he rea...
