alleyway rippled, revealing a blurry figure that then flashed like a wisp of ghostly light and vanished.But what this person did not expect was that while the mantis stalks the cicada, a yellow bird...On the other side.

Luo Xingnan fought with all his might, no longer holding back the power of his talisman treasures. The silver knife shone brightly, drawing a dazzling silver arc across the air that stretched for several dozen meters.

Qin Sang's body suddenly flashed with the spirit of a dragon, and his speed soared accordingly. His figure twisted abruptly, narrowly dodging the surprise attack. He let out a muffled groan as his body flew diagonally outward.

His hand covered his right chest, his hand stained with fresh blood.

Qin Sang used his body as bait, relying on the Jiulong Tianlian Talisman, to dodge Yin Di's fatal strike at the last moment. Although he managed to evade the blow, his right chest was still grazed by the blade and suffered severe injuries.

Thankfully, the secret message was fast enough, and no vital information was lost.

However, being injured is much better than dying.

Within the Ten Directions Yama Array, Shangguan Lifeng's vision was completely blocked by ghostly Qi. Moreover, Qin Sang was using the identity of Qingfeng Daochang, so even if he were discovered, there wasn't too much to worry about regarding the Nine Dragons Celestial Chariot Talisman.

The silver blade's surprise attack failed, its edge trembling slightly. It still wanted to continue pursuing Qin Shang, but suddenly transformed back into a talisman mid-air and drifted down.

The paper talisman was cracked and broken, only slightly better than the jade ruyi talisman before. It looked like it could be used maybe one or two more times at most.

Luoxingnan had possessed the Yin Dao Fu Bao for quite some time. Once the power of the treasure was depleted, it could not be replenished. Although he cherished its use and tried to conserve it, it was nearing exhaustion.

Qin Sang used his spiritual energy to roll over the talisman treasure and hastily sealed his wound, rushing to the front of the Ten Directions Yama Array and catching Shangguan Lifeng who had fallen due to exhaustion.

At the same time, Yan Luo's main soul carried Luo Xingnan's corpse and ran over with a fawning expression.

Luo Xingnan's body was covered in both sword and blade wounds. His heart had been shattered by sword energy, leaving him lifeless. Even in death, his eyes remained wide open with rage and disbelief, unable to find peace as he couldn't accept his demise in this place.

The Qi Hai is unharmed and can still be made into a corpse puppet.

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

Qin Sang nodded secretly, tidied Luo Xinan's body a little, and put it into his mustard seed bag.

According to records, the strength of a Corpse Puppet is closely related to the strength of the cultivator in their lifetime. A Corpse Puppet made from a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator's body is stronger than previous Corpse Puppets.

This is a simple example of how to use HTML tags within text.

Recalling the battle just now, Qin Sang's heart was still beating nervously. Although he had an 80% chance of winning, the actual execution was still extremely dangerous.

Luoxingnan also possesses a talisman. Since he has seen me use the jade Ruyi talisman, he must be prepared. It would be impossible to kill him with only the talisman or the Ten Directions Yama Banner.

If both are used, his spiritual power will be difficult to sustain for too long, making it hard to forcibly kill Luo Xingnan who is protected by a talisman.

Therefore, Qin Sang set his strategy, taking a gamble, but luckily it paid off.

Qin Sang didn't directly put away the Ten Directions Yama Banner. Instead, he let all the souls return to the ghost banner and then hid it.

Shangguan Lifeng watched Qin Sang manipulate the magic weapon, but didn't ask anything.

Returning to the cave mouth, Qin Sang allowed Shangguan Lifeng to recuperate while he endured the pain in his body, hiding at the entrance and vigilantly watching outside.

A period of time passed, and things remained calm.

"It seems the white-clad scholar has left."

>

Qin Sang nodded secretly, this person was indeed not greedy, otherwise he would most likely have stayed to be a fisherman.

Of course, you wouldn't let him get away with it.

This place is not a place to stay long. Qin Sang waved his hand, summoning the Ten Directions Yama Banner back, and turned to rush into the cave. He found Yun Youzi sitting cross-legged, though still very weak, he was much better than before.

Upon hearing Qin Sang's words, Yun Youzi and Shangguan Lifeng also agreed. The three of them went against the conventional wisdom and flew directly into the depths of the ancient battlefield.

Just as they left.

Suddenly, the main hall of the cave dwelling trembled with strange ripples emanating from within.

Everyone in the cave dwelling sensed the disturbance and looked up towards the peak, their expressions full of uncertainty.

Then, a rainbow suddenly shot out of the hall, followed by the angry roar of the Hook Serpent.

It is known to all that a change has occurred in the Hall of Offerings. This location is special and significant. If an extraordinary treasure were to appear here, it would undoubtedly be something remarkable.

For a moment, everyone except those who had already entered the Lingbao Pavilion rushed to the Hall of Offerings. Countless streaks of light converged on the summit like fireflies, creating a spectacular sight.

All of this has nothing to do with Qin Sang and them.

After leaving the bustling Autumn Crane Pavilion market, they found a hidden spot. All three of them were injured. This place was deep within the ancient fairy battlefield, dangerous and treacherous, so they needed to recover as soon as possible.

Among them, Qin Sang's injury was the lightest. After taking a few pills, he sat still and circulated his kung fu. It didn't take long for the impact of the injury to diminish greatly.

Shangguan Lifeng's most serious injury was his severed left arm. Apart from that, he was fine. The main issue was his depleted Qi Sea, and he would recover around the same time as Qin Sang.

Only Yun Youzi, after resting for so long, still didn't see much improvement. He urged the Wuxi Zhu to pay the price, which was much greater than Qin Sang had imagined.

The cloud wanderer opened his eyes, the weariness in his gaze slightly lessened. He said with a hint of resignation, "This old Daoist will probably need to recuperate for a few years to make up for the losses. During this time, I won't be able to help Brother Qin refine spirit pills. Otherwise, if I start the furnace without proper preparation, the success rate would drop significantly, wasting this hard-earned Xuanwen Huangjing in vain."

"Seniors, there's no need to rush…"

Fundamental things won't be affected much in the short term, whether a few years earlier or later doesn't make much difference.

Qin Sang said something, then suddenly remembered something. He took out Ge Yuan and Luo Xingnan's pouch, flipped out the three spiritual herbs inside, and placed them in front of him.

"Among these three spiritual herbs, is there any that could help my senior recover from their injuries"

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

The Cloud Wanderer shook his head repeatedly, "That's impossible! Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, Qin Lao Di killing Luo Xingnan must have been extremely dangerous. If he's not careful, he'll be doomed forever! These are the hard-earned possessions of Qin Lao Di, and I can't take them."

Qin Sang disagreed: "Without the seniors' valiant efforts to injure the first-rank monster and scare away the hook snake, our juniors would have never had a chance to fight Luo Xinan. We would have died at the mouths of demonic beasts long ago. Seniors wouldn't want us to be ungrateful, would they Plus, Shangguan Daoist also contributed three spirit herbs, enough to divide equally among us."

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Lifeng also refused to take the elixir without hesitation.

This is the correct translation, please let me know if you have any other translations you need!

Qin Sang was both amused and dumbfounded. He never expected that a millennium herb, which countless cultivators would fight tooth and nail for, would be passed back and forth between just the three of them.

As for Qin Sang himself, he was already satisfied with getting the Xuanwen Huangjing. Getting another one was an unexpected bonus, and he wouldn't be greedy enough to take all three spirit herbs for himself.

“This…”

The Cloud Wanderer feigned reluctance once more, but seeing Qin Sang's resolute expression, he had no choice but to accept. He pointed with his finger at the pipe filled with tobacco.

This is a tricky request! You're asking me to translate the text between the > tags, but you also want me to keep the HTML tags themselves. Since I don't see any text within those tags, my translation would be:> Let me know if you have some text inside the tags, and I'll be happy to translate it for you!

"This tobacco plant, without the need for refinement into pills, can be directly refined and ingested to take effect. A thousand-year-old tobacco plant is extremely rare. This medicine's age is sufficient enough that its efficacy far surpasses ordinary tobacco. If nothing unexpected happens, it should allow the old Taoist to recover two years earlier than expected."

Hearing this, Qin Sang nodded, closed the jade box containing tobacco, and handed it to Yun Youzi. Gu Heng gestured powerfully with his hand.All demons stop.Gu Heng's figure flickered and vanished into thin air. He concealed himself in the shadows, discreetly investigating the area near Huaxian La...
