Chapter 699: Yuanying Cave Mansion

translate!A blazing fist smashed into the wall, creating a large gaping hole. It carried with it a scorching and ferocious aura, charging straight towards Qin Sang's hiding place. The ground paved wit..."Fellow Daoist Fan, you've actually invited Fellow Daoist Qin. It seems this trip will be worry-free."

>

The scholar in green smiled kindly at Qin Sang.

Qin Sang's expression eased slightly, and he bowed his hands: "Fellow Daoist is praising me too highly. Qin hasn't yet agreed to what Daoist Fan wants me here for."

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

The short and stout cultivator said repeatedly, "Friend Qin, why don't you enter the island and wait for a while Let the other cultivators gather. Then I will explain everything clearly to you. As long as Friend Qin agrees, I promise that the conditions I offered will be fulfilled."

Qin Sang thought for a moment, flew over with his sword, and scanned the island carefully. Seeing nothing amiss, he landed on a nearby reef, keeping a safe distance from them.

Qing Shan Ru Sheng and Qin Sang exchanged a few pleasantries. Seeing Qin Sang's cold demeanor, he wisely stopped talking further.

After a while, three more people arrived in quick succession. They were all cultivators that I had seen in the market.

Qin Sang watched coldly, discovering that these people were the best among the early stage cultivators of forming alchemy. Each one possessed formidable strength. It seemed that the short and fat cultivator's ambition was not small.

“Friend Fan, you called so many of us here. What is the matter Can you tell us now”

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

It was already night, and someone impatiently asked.

The short and stout monk smiled and said, "Don't worry, Qian Daoist. There is still one more Daoist friend who hasn't arrived. He should be here soon. At that time, Fan will definitely not keep you in suspense and will explain everything clearly without reservation."

As they were speaking, a sudden streak of blue light flew from afar and landed outside the island, revealing the figure of a gaunt old man.

"Welcome, everyone!"

The short and stout monk's face lit up, just as he was about to step out, he suddenly heard the lean old man roar, "Fan, you said you invited me over to search for treasure together, now you gather so many people here to ambush us, what do you mean"

The short and stout monk explained in a hurry, only then did the wiry old man fly over with a dubious look.

At this time, seven cultivators of the Jindan stage had gathered on the island, which was enough to form a small trading meet. Everyone looked at the short and stout cultivator, all curious about what he intended to do.

It goes without saying that it took a huge price to persuade so many people. The rewards he desires must be worthy of such a heavy investment.

The short and stout monk cleared his throat lightly, didn't beat around the bush, and said solemnly: "Today, I invited everyone here to ask you to help me break a certain restriction."

"Forbidden"

"What prohibition"

"Could it be an ancient prohibition Could there be a legendary ancient secret realm in the Demon Sea, discovered by fellow cultivators"

"Where is it"

For a moment, everyone was intrigued by the short and stout monk, bombarding him with questions.

Even the wizened old man, who had been frowning all along, broke into a smile of excitement.

After the cultivators of the two clans marched into the Demon Sea, they were almost overwhelmed by the monstrous tide due to the overwhelming power of the demon race. They eventually stabilized their foothold and only occupied a very small part of the Demon Sea, always facing the threat of the monstrous tide. They never found the legendary ancient secret realm in the Demon Sea.

Some suspect that before the Demon Sea was discovered, it may have always been ruled by demonic beasts, with no immortal cultivators ever setting foot there. This is why there are no traces left behind by ancient cultivators.

To everyone's surprise and curiosity, the short and stout monk had actually asked someone to break the seal.

The short and stout cultivator waved his hands repeatedly: “Fellow Daoists, you misunderstand. It’s not an ancient secret realm. Fan believes that place is the abode of a senior cultivator…”

“The cave dwelling of a senior cultivator”

All eyes were on each other.

The gaunt old man sneered, "These temporary shelters are everywhere. Who would be foolish enough to hide anything good inside You're not afraid of getting your hopes up for nothing"

The scholar in green pondered for a moment, then said solemnly, "Since Daoist friend is willing to pay such a high price to hire us, you must have already sensed something, haven't you I wonder which senior's cave dwelling it is"

The stout monk nodded and said, “To be frank with you all, the restrictions on the cave dwelling actually have three layers. After much thought, I was only able to break through two of them. The third layer, however, remained unmoved no matter how hard I tried. I had planned to return and ask my friends for help, but unfortunately, they were trapped on Huntian Island and couldn’t get out. So I had no choice but to come up with this plan. Taking advantage of the market opening, I invited you all to lend a hand. Even by only opening two layers of restrictions, I discovered some things that suggest the identity of the cave dwelling owner might be extraordinary. At the risk of losing everything, I decided to take a gamble.”

The emaciated old man sneered, "What kind of person is the owner of that cave dwelling Fellow Daoist Fan is so secretive, could he be a Yuan Ying ancestor"

The thin old man's laughter grew weaker and weaker, for he noticed the stout monk was staring at him with a strange expression. His face stiffened involuntarily, his expression full of disbelief. "Really… the Yuanying Cave"

It's hard to say.

The short and stout cultivator shook his head. "I consider myself quite skilled, yet I've exhausted all my efforts to no avail against this restriction. It must be the handiwork of at least a Golden Core peak expert. Furthermore, I found something in the cave..."

Saying that, the short and stout monk took out a rotten fish skin.

The fish skin was severely corroded, as if it could be torn away with a light touch. The originally tight scales were now patchy and many had fallen off.

Seeing this fish skin, which was almost unrecognizable, the faces of the crowd all changed at once.

"This is…"

The scholar in green robes swallowed nervously, his voice trembling slightly, "A beast pelt from a demonic beast at the Nascent Soul stage"

Qin Sang also stared fixedly at the fish skin. Even though it was rotten, the aura of the demon's former life still lingered, making his heart tremble. This instinctive intimidation and oppression, Qin Sang had only felt it from the Yuan Ying ancestor!

The skin of a great demon from the Transformation Stage!

This was the first time he had ever seen it.

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

Everyone was stunned into silence, staring blankly at the fish skin.

The short and stout cultivator nodded. "You all must have seen it, this animal hide was found by me in that cave dwelling. At that time, I was overjoyed, but unexpectedly, there were only simple restrictions on the animal hide, which had long since失效 due to the passage of time. Even a monster at the Nascent Soul stage's hide couldn't escape the ravages of time. You should all understand how terrifying a monster at the Nascent Soul stage is. Such a large piece of animal skin would be treasured even by an ancestor at the Nascent Soul stage. Conversely, only an ancestor at the Nascent Soul stage would have the audacity to treat it so carelessly."

The animal hide is rotten and no longer useful.

The short, stout monk casually passed something to the person beside him, and it went around in a circle.

When it was Qin Sang's turn, he carefully caressed the animal skin in his hand. He had seen live shape-shifting monsters during the Little Cold Domain, but this was the first time he had seen a dead one.

The leather is genuine, there's a unique smell that no one can replicate.

The short and stout cultivator spoke in a low voice, "Can you all believe Master Fan now"

The gaunt old man reluctantly returned the beast hide to the short, stout cultivator, probingly asking, "There are even beast hides from Nascent Soul stage demons inside. It seems Daoist friend must have gained quite a few benefits, right It's impossible for everything to be as decayed as this hide. Why not let us open our eyes"

>aps it was because of his pleasant mood, not long after he started cultivating, the bottleneck that had plagued him for a month loosened!Qin Sang was overjoyed. He dared not relax in the slightest, ex...
