Chapter 1790 Unexpected Encounter
e else, if they managed to escape into the cave, was below. The cavern felt too eerie for him, so he decided to first find a way to reunite with his companions before confronting any potential dangers...The golden light was like a river bursting its banks, surging with an irresistible force.
It's obvious that the golden light must be related to those demon lords.
They chased relentlessly, their speed no slouch. They were not far from the center of the golden explosion. When they detected something amiss, the auspicious clouds ahead had been tinged with a pale gold and were rapidly spreading over.
Dressed in a layer of golden light, Qin Sang felt no discomfort.
In the collective spiritual awareness, the golden light did not manifest much destructive power, only a greater sense of grandeur.
But the crowd soon realized the problem. The phantoms struck by the golden light, especially those transformed from ancient powerful beings' magical powers, all showed signs of instability.
"Wow!"
Golden light burst with intense blue at its edges.
It was precisely the blue light sea mentioned by Youhuang Zhenren. For some reason, it surged with waves of light and spurted out blue light, actually repressing the golden light. The convergence of blue and gold created another spectacular scene.
Over countless years of change, these phantoms have intertwined and stacked upon each other. auspicious clouds serve as buffers and connections, forming a stable pattern. Even powerful cultivators like those who have achieved the Nascent Soul stage can only traverse the numerous phantasms formed by divine powers, adapting to circumstances as they arise.

They tried their best, but it would be difficult to shake these illusions. Just like in the rain of soldiers formed from beans earlier, Qin Sang and the others could only keep killing the clay men, but they couldn't find the source, let alone unravel the divine power.
At this moment, the golden light seemed to shake the very foundation of this space.

‘Boom! Boom! Boom!’
>
Ahead, dazzling balls of light constantly exploded, like the most magnificent fireworks in the world.
These multicolored orbs pulsed with an otherworldly power, their energy fluctuating between softness and strength, raging like fire or whispering like the wind. They slammed into everything around them, causing even greater chaos.
Chaos is spreading at an alarming rate.
In the blink of an eye, they were upon them.
"Oh no!"
A gasp, identical to that of Zhang Zhenren, echoed in everyone's hearts.
Chang Zhenren and Zhijian Zhenren ascended the stone platform. All four of them stood on the Yunjing path.
>
The cloud path is very narrow, barely enough space for four people to walk abreast.
A stone platform was on their left, and two illusory scenes were pressed close to them on the right.
A ball of threads made of red and yellow silk, the threads are thin, like faint clouds. If you don't look closely, you might mistake it for auspicious clouds.
Beside the thread was a crack, like a ferocious beast lurking in a spatial fissure, only showing its bloody maw, constantly devouring the ball of yarn.
The devouring continues endlessly, while the thread is inexhaustible.
The illusions before and behind the Stone Terrace were similar, some clearly manifested as supernatural powers, while others remained obscure. Once these erupted, their fate in the midst of it was unpredictable.
"Rewind!"
>
The solitary cloud real person shouted loudly.
Four people retreated first.
Only Zhang Zhenren and Zhijian Zhenren on the stone platform stopped hurriedly, it was impossible to complete the formation before the golden light arrived.
At this moment, it was not the time to set up an array. Both of them were well-versed in the art of choosing and discarding, and without hesitation, they abandoned their formations and dashed out of the stone platform.
Unforeseenly, the moment they moved, the stone platform shook violently, and a sudden change occurred.
The originally smooth surface of the stone platform suddenly appeared with a network of lines, densely packed and deeply etched into the stone, like an incredibly complex pattern.
All present were well-versed in the ways of talismans. As they retreated, the talisman formation on the stone platform came into view, arousing their instinctive reactions as talisman cultivators, yet causing a sudden dizziness.
Shi Tai didn't give them a chance to continue their contemplation. A symbol appeared, and suddenly a powerful wave emanated from the stone platform.
Zhang Zhenren and Zhijian Zhenren hadn't had time to retreat, they were the first to be hit. In their haste, they could only raise their protective treasures in defense. A tremendous boom echoed out, and a terrifying force slammed into them from below.
The next moment, Qin Sang and the others were stunned to see the two real people being swept away by the waves emanating from the stone platform. Judging from their expressions, they could only barely protect themselves and had no strength to resist that force.
The two masters and their distance were rapidly widening, disappearing into the golden light one after another, without even time to say a word.
And the stone platform continued to erupt with power, instantly causing chaos all around.
A burst of power crashed into the cloud-like filaments, sending a large section caving inward. This immediately provoked a counterattack, as strands of filament shot out in all directions like rabid snakes. Anyone caught nearby would find themselves riddled with transparent holes.
Similar scenes appeared one after another, the golden light triggering a series of changes that spread too fast. Even Qin Sang and his four companions couldn't escape.
'Bang!'
Qin Sang only felt a tightness in his chest, and was also swept back by the aftereffects of the stone platform's talisman.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He had already unleashed the Golden Light Celestial Armor and remained unharmed.
But as he retreated, Qin Sang caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that something was happening on both sides, and at the same time, Tianmu Die sent a warning.
The phantasms on both sides are expanding, and once they collide, who knows what consequences will ensue.
Qin Sang's expression changed slightly, and he acted decisively, charging horizontally into the illusion on his right.
As soon as Qin Sang entered the phantom realm, before he could see what lay inside, a piercing wind sound reached his ears. A sense of foreboding gripped him, and he raised his hand to strike out with a palm towards the right rear.
At the same time, Qin Sang also twisted his body over, but he and Tianmu Die didn't see anything, only a gentle force from their palms, involuntarily pushing them towards the sky.
‘Whoosh!’
Qin Sang was pushed out of the illusion and found that it wasn't the place he was before, and he couldn't see You Huang Zhenren and the others.
At this moment, Qin Sang could only ensure his own safety and had no time to worry about others. Besides, they all certainly had ways to save themselves.
"Wow!"
There was the sound of water coming from above.
Qin Sang didn't even glance back, rushing forward with all his might.
At this very moment, in every direction, a chaotic scene is unfolding everywhere. He seems to be in a kaleidoscope of colors.
It is impossible to seek a safe haven in the midst of chaos; one can only constantly shift and dodge, testing the cultivator's eyesight and skill.
The Sky-Eyed Butterfly will help Qin Sang find the way, Qin Sang only needs to focus on dealing with the dangers.
At this moment, one can clearly see the benefits of Tianmu's divine powers being honed to perfection. Even the fleetingest gap is not beyond the notice of the Tianmu butterfly.
One person, one butterfly, their hearts intertwined. With the help of the Heavenly Eye Butterfly, Qin Sang shuttled through various visions. Sometimes he displayed the Lotus Seal, sometimes he flapped his phoenix wings, and sometimes he summoned a wooden spirit to charge fiercely. He was like dancing on the edge of a knife, and anyone watching would feel nervous for him.
His situation seems perilous.
However, as time passed, Qin Sang found that the chaos caused by the golden light was not as severe as he had imagined.
This space is still very stable and far from collapsing. The ancient divine powers haven't been truly activated, only the aftershocks of the golden light are still wreaking havoc for a while longer.
A cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, as long as they respond appropriately, will not be in danger of losing their life, at most they will suffer some hardships.
Thinking about this, Qin Sang's heart calmed slightly. When she went to look for the others, she found that they had all vanished.
Just now, the situation was too chaotic. Qin Sang couldn't remember the location of the stone platform. Remembering the contact talismans everyone had prepared before entering, he took one out and struck it.
The talisman in his palm transformed into a seal, flickering with light. After a moment, it gradually dissipated.
Qin Sang frowned, the talisman was useless here.
A sudden change occurred, and they hadn't had time to discuss a meeting place.
Now, where should I go next
Should he continue searching for the Demon King aimlessly, or leave this place and wait at the Golden Hall for them to come out
There is still a concern that we don't know how long this situation can last, and whether there will be an even more violent burst of golden light.
Just then, Qin Sang noticed a blue light flickering ahead. His heart skipped a beat as he remembered the sea of blue light.
On their way here, You Huang Zhenren spoke about her experiences in this place. Qin Sang listened carefully and kept them in mind.
The path that the True Person of Yuhua had walked, most of the phantoms along the way had been explored, knowing where the danger was and where it was relatively safe.
>
As long as that route is found, even if there are changes later, it won't be panic.
Looking at the sights ahead, I've arrived near the blue light sea.
Thinking of this, Qin Sang immediately sent a message to Tianmu Die, searching for the way forward and moving closer to the blue light sea.
Qin Sang, like a surfer cutting through waves, arrived at the edge of the azure light sea without any danger.
As far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse of blue.
According to You Huang Zhenren, the blue light sea was very calm before, like a pure blue light wall. Looking at the light sea, one's mind would unconsciously be intoxicated, feeling an unprecedented peace.
At first, it was a good thing, but Youhuang Zhenren discovered that after staring at the blue light sea for a while, ripples would appear in the shape of circles. The ripples gradually spread outward, as if trying to suck her in. She felt a sense of alarm and inexplicable fear, so she dared not look anymore.
The blue light sea at this moment appears with slight distortion, but overall it is still relatively stable.
>
Qin Sang didn't look at the light sea, moving along the edge of it, searching for the illusory scene that matched what You Huang Zhen Ren had described.
>
Along the way, he several times used talismans to contact his companions, but all efforts were in vain.

Flitting through the air.
A fierce sandstorm was approaching, and a swirling mass of black, shadowy sand swept in from the horizon.
The black sand phantom emanated a stench of decay. Qin Sang frowned slightly, unwilling to let such an odd thing get near him, and immediately changed direction, shifting sideways to the other side.
'Whoosh!'
Black sand swept across, carving out a void. Qin Sang dodged back, about to seize the opportunity and charge forward, when suddenly, a black streak shot from the edge of the channel ahead.
Before the light streams in, the Sky-Eyed Butterfly has already relayed the image inside: there is a person!
>
The newcomer was a slender young man clad in black armor. The armor plates were as fine as fish scales, covering his entire body except for his hands, feet, and head, appearing to be an extension of his own flesh.
When Qin Sang saw a long, scaled tail behind the approaching person, his pupils constricted suddenly. The visitor was a demon!
>
Here, no one could conceal their aura. The Heavenly Eye Butterfly discovered the other party, and the other party also sensed Qin Sang.
A streak of light shot into the passage, abruptly stopping to reveal a young man in black armor.
This demon has thin, pointed cheeks and eyes that are not large but extremely sharp.
Qin Sang's heart sank. He had already sensed the other party's aura, the middle stage of the Divine Transformation!
>
He is comparable to Zhang Zhenren!
If it was a demon marquis at the early stage of transformation, Qin Sang would believe he had a good chance of killing him. Once the mission was accomplished, he would directly withdraw from the Guishan Chi altar.
Even with the True Condensation Pill, Qin Sang didn't have much confidence facing a Nascent Soul Stage demon.
It is important to note that repelling and killing are two different concepts. If you fail to leave the enemy alive, you will have accomplished nothing and only fought a pointless battle.
>
If both sides are defeated, it will be even more disadvantageous for him.
>
The black-clad youth stared at Qin Sang, a cruel smile playing on his lips. “The one who was chasing after this marquis just now, was it you”
These demon marquises clearly had an ambush set up. When Qin Sang and the others chased them into the Nine Turns Star River, they were discovered.
Qin Sang's gaze swept over the black armor on its chest, recalling the information he had seen before. This demon should be one of the demon marquises of Gui Fang Guo, namely Li Hou.
Compared to other renowned demon marquises who have achieved great military exploits, Li Hou's fame is relatively low-key. This is mainly because he rarely appears on the battlefield. However, no one dares to underestimate a powerful demon at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Li Hou’s eyes flashed with cold light, clearly seeing that Qin Sang's cultivation was inferior to his, and he had murderous intent.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang's mind turned, and without answering, a pair of wings suddenly appeared behind him. He flapped them once, transforming into a bolt of lightning as he darted away to one side.
While escaping, Qin Sangmo urged the Tian Yao to transform, unleashing his pure demonic energy and leaving behind a sentence: "Li Hou has misunderstood."
>
Sensing the unusually pure demonic aura, Li Hou couldn't help but be taken aback. He then let out a sneer, his face filled with murderous intent.
In this realm, the Taoist sect developed numerous methods to disguise demonic energy in order to combat the 鬼方 (Ghost Nation). While not as refined as those wielded by humans, Li Hou had seen many such displays and wouldn't be deceived by this trickery. Instead, his interest in Qin Sang grew even stronger.
Moreover, even if this person were truly a demonic cultivator, he wouldn't fit the profile of any demonic marquis he knew. His appearance here must mean he is an enemy, not a friend.
As Li Hou's sharp tail whipped back and forth, the tip glowed with a black light, enveloping him as he pursued relentlessly.
One person and one demon, one in front of the other, Li Hou chased closely without giving up.
The chaos hadn't subsided yet, and as the two chased each other, they inevitably had to dodge the surrounding dangers, causing their escape speed to barely increase.
Li Hou followed Qin Sang closely, wearing him down while waiting for the right moment.
Qin Sang glanced back, his brows slightly furrowed.
It seems that Hou was also thrown out by the golden light. It's a pity that this demon is unscathed, I wonder what they went through.
On the way, Qin Sang kept contacting his helpers with talismans but received no response.
Li Hou saw this and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He had already determined that before the golden light faded, no communication methods would be usable.
Qin Sang's face was gloomy. He wasn't afraid of the other party, but he didn't want to fight a pointless battle.
>
Unless...
Qin Sang's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered what the mysterious Yu Huang had once said about that illusionary forest.
The real person in the bamboo grove was picking spirit flowers and, after taking them, they had a real medicinal effect.
Perhaps, the jungle there is also real.
As long as there is an abundant supply of wood spiritual energy, one can occupy the advantageous terrain. They can fight against Li Hou using their spiritwood body and then decide based on the situation.
Thinking of this, Qin Sang's heart immediately made up his mind. He accelerated without stopping and continued flying along the edge of the blue light sea.
'Bang!'
Li Hou finally found an opportunity to make a move.
A claw shadow struck Qin Sang's back of the head, but Qin Sang seemed to have anticipated it. His figure flickered, and with the help of the illusion's power, he dissipated the claw shadow.
Li Hou frowned, this person's escapism and spiritual awareness were not weak, and he only wanted to escape. It was impossible to have a quick battle.
Qin Sang constantly searched for Zhou Xuan, the Marquis of Li. He seemed distressed and secretly sought the path mentioned by Youhuang Zhenren. His efforts paid off eventually, and he found the phantom landscape mentioned by Youhuang Zhenren.
Qin Sang's expression and demeanor remained unchanged, silently altering his escape route.
Gradually, Qin Sang stepped onto the path that You Huang Zhen Ren had once walked. After a while, he finally found his target!
(The End)ately wanted to learn about the outside world, but ultimately refused Yuan Hu's invitation. Knowing that this was not Xiaohan domain, Qin Sang felt relieved.He didn't know much about the Wuchong sect'...
