d back.The dead forest seemed to have no end. Behind Qin Sang, a winding path had appeared, allowing him to retreat at any time. Before him, there was still a ghostly realm.One by one, Qin Sang broke...Black Tiger Gulch.

Qin Sang and his master, Gu Tiannan, descended from the sky on a trail outside the village. They concealed their figures, approaching the village.

Ten out of ten houses in the isolated village were empty, a deathly silence reigned. Even as the morning mist hadn't dissipated, there wasn't a single wisp of smoke. A few families had elders sitting listlessly outside their doors, their faces gaunt and pale, eyes staring blankly into the distance. To Qin Sang, the only feeling this place evoked was despair!

"That demon snatched all the people in the village with strong blood qi, using them as blood food. It didn't even spare the children, leaving only these elders," Gu Tiannan sighed softly.

"Have you found the remains" Qin Sang asked.

>

Gutian Nan shook his head, pointing to a black mountain behind the village. "There's a cave behind the mountain with a magic formation at the entrance, and there are two demons inside, both powerful. I injured one last time, but the other rescued him. Two fists are no match for four hands, so I invited Junior Brother Qin over."

Qin Sang raised his head and looked towards the mountain behind. Apart from being higher, there was nothing particularly special about it. However, under the hazy sunlight, the black mountain shadow seemed to have ghostly mist swirling around it, looking rather eerie.

He wished he could go up the mountain immediately to solve the problem and return to his mountain home, but he also wanted to listen to Gu Tiannan's advice.

Gu Tiannan suggested waiting until noon to make a move, "I don't know what kind of evil cultivation this demon head has practiced, but at noon, the yang energy is strongest. We wait until then to make a move, and the sinister energy will definitely be suppressed."

Three people found an empty house. Qin Sang sat alone, adjusting her state, but she always felt inexplicably restless and irritable. It took a long time for her to calm down.

No!

Qin Sang suddenly opened his eyes, a look of alertness flashing across his face. He went over his experiences from Shaohua Mountain to Guyuanguo in his mind, realizing that because he was anxious to return and get his waist token, he hadn't thought anything through carefully along the way. He had been led around all the time, only focused on completing the mission quickly.

Ordinary nations are troubled by demonic spirits, just a trivial matter. Yet, Uncle Wen took notice and deliberately sent him here. Is there any deeper meaning behind this Or is it simply to silence the gossips

The situation with the demons, as well, was all based on Gu Tiannan's one-sided account. Qin Sang had never really thought deeply about it until now, and suddenly a chill ran down his spine.

In the realm of cultivation, there's a saying about tempering one's Taoist heart and resisting demonic thoughts. However, Qin Sang never paid much attention to it. He relied on the Jade Buddha's assistance, believing that even the Three Calamities Heart Devouring Formation, born from a minor heavenly tribulation, was powerless against him. So why should he worry about demonic thoughts

Now I realize that heart demons aren't all tangible. My current state could be described as a multitude of heart demons surging forth.

Since the Soul Pill expired, fear and worry filled his heart. His mind was consumed with cultivating, cultivating, completely driven by haste and greed. Besides that, he cared nothing for anything else; he seemed utterly deranged.

What the Heart Demon affects is not only one's Taoist heart, but also their state of mind and actions. This kind of state even dares to leave the sect and come out to slay demons, dying without knowing how!

Meditation and calmness, Master Ji Xin Dao had taught him long ago, but he forgot it all.

>

Qin Sang silently recited it several times, allowing himself to forget the two words "foundation building," and finally wiped away all the chaotic thoughts one by one. In his heart, he felt that his state of mind had become clearer.

One's heart should be firm in pursuing the Dao, but not be swayed by it.

Although it wouldn't help his cultivation, Qin Sang knew he would definitely benefit from this in the future.

'Bang! Bang!'

The door was knocked on, Gu Yuan called out softly to Qin Shi Shu, Qin Sang lightly patted the dust off his robes, though none existed, a natural smile of contentment appeared on his face as he pushed the door open.

The sun was scorching outside.

Qin Sang slightly nodded to the two disciples, donned a new demeanor, and secretly observed and pondered Gu Tiannan.

Recalling what was recorded on the Jade Tablet, every few years, there would be demons causing havoc in Guyuanguo. Each time, Gutennan handled it properly. Several times when they requested help, he arrived promptly and resolved the situation beautifully.

What a coincidence!

There is only one Sun De on Mount Shao Hua. Why can't there be a second one

Seeing Gu Tiannan's face, pale as a sheet with not a trace of blood color, Qin Sang finally understood why he felt so uneasy. This complexion was exactly like that of a corpse; he had seen it countless times on the battlefields of the Sui Dynasty.

However, Gu Tiannan is already over a hundred years old and is also a disciple of Shaohua Mountain. It's impossible to judge him based on this alone. Besides, Qin Sang didn't sense any demonic aura from him.

Take care of yourself, and then wait and see.

>

Qin Sang's mind raced, and he decided on this strategy. He focused his attention on the Star Tears and the Ebony Sword, ready to face any sudden situation. He also secretly prepared some talismans and that black orb, feeling confident that he had everything covered. Then, following behind Gu Tiannan and his apprentice, he used a teleportation technique to ascend the mountain.

The mountain wasn't very steep, and the three of them quickly climbed to the top and arrived at the back mountain.

The cave behind the mountain was very noticeable. The mouth of the cave was several zhang wide, its dark opening resembling a demonic eye on the ground. Black mist filled its depths, obscuring any view.

Three people hid in the shadows, observing the cave. The demonic energy at the entrance churned very regularly, like a whirlpool, rotating in circles. Qin Sang could feel a dangerous aura from within. Gu Tiannan said that there was a magic circle covering it, and it was probably not far off.

"Does Qin Shidi have any means to break the formation" Gu Tiannan transmitted his voice and inquired.

Qin Sang frowned in thought. If he laid out the Ten Directions Yama Formation, it shouldn't be difficult to break the formation with a formation, but he had made up his mind to observe Gu Tiannan first. Before that, it was best not to expose his trump card. He took out the Bibo Sword and replied, "Senior Brother Gu, I specialize in swordsmanship. If I fight head-on, I can do it, but breaking formations is not my strong suit."

Ancient Tiannan didn't suspect anything, he nodded upon hearing this. With a clap of his mustard seed pouch, five dazzling sword lights shot out instantly. Ancient Tiannan muttered words under his breath, sending out streaks of spiritual energy towards the sword lights, causing them to flare up dramatically.

Qin Sang stared intently and found that each of the five sword lights enveloped a spirit sword. He immediately remembered a famous spell from Shaohua Mountain called the Five Elements Breaking Formation Sword. It required five elemental spirit swords, then relying on the spell, to mobilize the spiritual energy of the five elements of heaven and earth, specializing in breaking formations.

This incantation, Qin Sang learned about from a senior uncle during a lecture. He found out that it was extremely time-consuming to cultivate and required a suitable five-element spirit sword, but the opportunities to use it were few and far between. So he didn't practice it.

Judging from Gu Tiannan's bearing, he clearly possesses a profound understanding of this incantation.

With Gu Tiannan's movements, dense runes gradually covered the five spirit swords. The sword light was dazzling, and each spirit sword stirred the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

"Go!"

Gu Tiannan's eyes flashed, and with a cold shout, he pointed at the cave. Five sword lights streaked through the air silently.

As the Five Elements Breaking Sword disappeared into the depths of demonic energy, there was no sound or movement.

But Gu Tiannan was not worried at all, he smiled and looked at the cave entrance.

The next moment, a buzzing sound of swords rang out from the cave, followed by a sudden surge of spiritual energy between heaven and earth!

Sword light pierced the gloom, countless spiritual energies were rapidly drawn into the cave entrance, and then suddenly expanded. With a deafening roar, the demonic energy within the cave instantly shattered!
