Chapter 1727: eastward travel
was to inspect the entire sunken land every two days, record any changes, and report them to his master to prevent any sudden changes from catching them off guard.Qin Sang thought about it and decided...Dàbēi Chán Sì Biéyuàn.
This temple is located in an uninhabited area near the typhoon belt, dedicated to guarding a Taoist temple. It has been the place where monks from all generations of Dabei Chan Temple have overcome calamities.
Outside the temple, yellow sand swirls.

This day.
>
In the depths of the desert, two people walked. One wore a monk's robe, and the other wore a Taoist priest's robes.
Looking at their movements, they didn't seem to be flying with magical energy. It was almost like walking on the ground, yet they were incredibly fast, leaving no footprints behind. If ordinary people saw them, they would probably think they were ghosts.
Here comes Qin Sang and Master Huaiyin.
>
Master Huaiyin led the way.
>
Qin Sang followed closely, but kept his eyes closed. A faint golden glow seemed to appear on his body surface, and his blood qi was agitated. Judging by his appearance, he should be trying his best to suppress it.
During his three years of training in the Yijin Sword Cave, Qin Sang absorbed the Yijin Sword Qi into his body.
He is already a Nascent Soul cultivator, and once broke through the calamity of Yin Fire, enduring hardship that ordinary people cannot.
This is a test.
It's not just about allowing the blazing golden sword energy to enter his body and adapt afterwards. He would also actively mobilize his true essence, attracting even more. In pursuit of the best cultivation results, Qin Sang almost always walked on the edge of physical collapse, enduring unimaginable pain that others couldn't fathom, washing his marrow and cutting his sinews.
Master Huaiyin occasionally went into the cave to check on things and was full of praise.

Some benefits gained from training within the Yujin Sword Cave are not immediately apparent. As time passes, Yujin Qi will accumulate within the body, which requires time to refine.
The process of refinement is also a process of refining the physical body. Qin Sang will be able to feel this when he cultivates in the future.
He was pushing himself so hard in order to absorb as much of the radiant golden energy as possible. After three years of rigorous cultivation, Qin Sang's physical body was nearing its limit. The accumulated radiant golden energy was the source of his turbulent qi and blood.
Qin Sang was using his true essence to suppress it.
Look inward.
True essence circulation never ceases.
With every completed cycle of the heavenly stem, qi and blood become more stable.
When Qin Sang saw the Dabi Chan Temple's branch temple, he had returned to normal, back to being that unworldly Daoist priest.

The courtyard now has only a few monks, all high monks from Daci Temple who came early to wait and protect Master Zhi Tan.
Upon entering the temple, they did not see Master Zhi Tan, because Master Zhi Tan was to leave seclusion three days later and would immediately undergo a critical test upon leaving.
Master Huayi brought Qin Sang to a quiet chamber, left for the time of an incense stick, and returned with a painting scroll for Qin Sang.
The painting scroll is very thin and soft to the touch in your hand.
It is the secret treasure of the Great Compassion Zen Temple, the King of Myō-ō!
Qin Sang slowly unrolled the painting scroll, discovering that the Ming Wang (Wrathful King) image was made of material similar to fine silk. It was as thin as a cicada's wing and had a slightly yellowish background, but the colors on the painting were still vibrant and fresh.
The Mingwang Tu depicts one of the many forms of Fudo Myo-o, a legendary figure from Buddhist tradition.
It is seated on a rocky platform, resembling a child. It has seven buns on its head, with braids hanging down to the left shoulder. The left eye is closed, and the lower teeth bite the lip, showing an angry expression. It carries flames on its back. In its right hand it holds a sharp sword, and in its left, a rope, making a pose of severing worries.
The painted deity's appearance is lifelike and vivid, possessing the true essence of the Ming Wang. One hesitates to look directly at it, for demons upon seeing it would feel fear and retreat in terror.
Master Huaiyin clasped his hands together and knelt before the mandala of King Ming, murmuring words under his breath.
He chanted not ordinary scriptures, but the secret mantras of the King of Wisdom Mandala, profound and boundless.
Although Qin Sang was not a Buddhist, his original form had once sought Buddhist teachings in the Western Deserts. His incarnation also lingered for a long time in the Sutra Pavilion of Ganlu Chan Monastery. Moreover, this secret mantra is not difficult to understand when it comes to its application.
Once the mantra is understood, it's simpler to use. Qin Sang only needs to fully activate the Mingwang Diagram and unleash the strange power contained within the statue of Immovable Mingwang. By seizing the right moment, he can empower Master Zhi Tan, and three days will be enough for him to master this treasure.

He carefully recorded it, his consciousness entering the Amitabha Buddha painting, diligently pondering its meaning.
Master Huaiyin quietly stepped down.
Qin Sang remained in seclusion for three days straight.
The next day, Master Xingji came to visit but did not disturb Qin Sang.

It was not until the morning of the day Master Zhi Tan emerged from seclusion that...
All the monks stood guard before Qin Sang's quiet room. They heard a creak, and Qin Sang walked out. He nodded to Master Chongxing and said to Master Hua Yin, "This poor Dao has now mastered the use of the Mingwang Diagram. Master Zhitan, where do you wish to cross the tribulation"

Master Huaiyin bowed and said, “Please, True Monarch, move to the back mountain.”
What is now known as the back mountain was once a sand dune. It was later transformed into a green hill by the eminent monks of Daba Zen Temple who used their great magical powers to solidify the sand into stone and, over several generations, guided water vapor to create it.
The back mountain is not large, with a total of three peaks.
The monks and Qin Sang landed on the peak to the left, gazing toward the central main peak.
As soon as Qin Sang arrived, he sensed something was amiss. He spoke in a low voice: "Master Zhitan has begun his breakthrough."
When Master Huaiyin and the others heard this, their expressions tightened with apprehension. They stared nervously at the main peak.
Since the attempt to break through failed, there was no need for Qin Sang to take action. He naturally got a good deal out of it without lifting a finger.
In the two realms of Xitu and Zhongzhou, since the fall of the Purple Thunder Immortal less than two hundred years ago, apart from Qin Sang, no one else has successfully broken through the realm publicly, leading to the Calamity of Transforming Gods.
The Purple Thunder Immortal was unaware of the Heavenly Demon Sound, and hastily crossed the tribulation. Now, Master Zhi Tan has made numerous preparations and invited a Nascent Soul protector. If he can successfully cross the threshold and attract the Heavenly Tribulation, it will verify the power of the Heavenly Demon Sound.
'Wow!'
At midday, the sky suddenly turned dark.
The void whipped up a furious wind.

Outside the mountain, wind picked up sand and dust. The yellow sand around the temple covered the sky and blocked out the sun, making day turn into night.
Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags as they are:
Qin Sang and the others watched intently in the direction of the main peak. They saw clouds gathering and swirling above it, with surging celestial energy forming a visible vortex of spiritual energy hanging in the sky.
Qin Sang was somewhat surprised. Looking at the scene, Master Zhi Tan had a good chance of breaking through this time. With great patience, he accumulated his strength for many years, and finally burst forth with tremendous power, truly extraordinary.

Clearing the customs does not mean you can become a god.
Even before the Heavenly Dao Demon Sound appeared, countless powerful individuals had perished during the Divine Transformation Tribulation. Not everyone was as capable as Qin Sang, who effortlessly navigated the Bi Feng Tribulation and the Heart Demon Tribulation like eating and drinking.
But everyone who has reached this point is a peerless talent!
>
Qin Sang remained silent, sitting cross-legged on a rock with the Mingwang Diagram laid horizontally across his lap.
Seeing his actions, the Master Xingji led several monks to fly toward another peak, while Master Huaiyin remained standing beside Qin Sang.
As the overlord of the Western Regions, no one should dare to disturb Master Zhi Tan's crossing tribulation in Dabi Chan Temple. Besides, there is Qin Sang, a true monarch who has achieved transformation, guarding the temple. In fact, this many protectors are unnecessary.
Qin Sang closed his eyes slightly, sensing the outside world purely with his divine awareness. The other part of his mind was connected to the Ming Wang diagram.
After a short while, he felt a stirring in his heart and sighed with emotion: "I have successfully broken through the barrier!"
At the same time, a terrifying surge of spiritual energy erupted from the peak of the main mountain. The surrounding monks felt an instinctive fear welling up within them. The center of the surge twisted and contorted, and the infernal fire tribulation was upon them!
Though the assembled monks still couldn't see Master Zhi Tan, they could sense the fluctuation of his inner fire.
The Yin Fire Tribulation is the weakest of the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulations. It can strike powerful cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, so it's inconceivable that someone would even fail to pass the Yin Fire Tribulation.
At this time, the monks were most concerned not with the main peak, but frequently looked towards Qin Sang's side.
>
Not long after, Buddhist light shone over the mountain rocks where Qin Sang was located. A painting scroll slowly rose into the sky and unfolded at a high altitude, manifesting the appearance of the Immovable King Ming.
The Ming Wang image disappears in the Buddhist light, only this Buddha statue, as if walking out of a painting and into reality, reveals a true immovable Ming Wang. Facing the main peak, it gazes upon those crossing tribulation.
>
Qin Sang sat behind the immovable King Ming, hands clasped in a Buddhist seal, chanting mantras. It sounded just like Master Huaiyin's recitation, yet with a strange rhythm.

Under the blessing of the mantra, the flames behind Fudo Myo-o seemed to rage even more fiercely, surrounding Qin Sang. Master Huiyin retreated several paces in succession.

At this time, the power of the Yin Fire Tribulation had reached its peak and began to gradually decline.
Not until the Yin Fire completely vanished did Qin Sang's incantation reach completion. As a low growl escaped his throat, he suddenly opened his eyes, contorting his face into a furious expression, resembling the immovable King of Kings before him.
In an instant, the man and his dharma form seemed to become one.

The不動明王 raised his sword in his hand, the tip pointing at the main peak. Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the blade.
A golden light separated from the body, all the divine phenomena vanished, the Akobhya Buddha's form shattered, returning to the Mingwang painting, its spiritual light dimmed, falling into Qin Sang's arms.

While others could only see the golden light flying into the main peak, Qin Sang clearly saw it striking Master Zhi Tan's brow, turning his white eyebrows and beard gold.
In Qin Sang's unseeing gaze, inside Master Zhitan's spiritual platform, the Purple Mansion, his Yuanshen was like wearing a suit of golden armor.
Meanwhile, a gale appears!
Qin Sang caught the Mingwang Tu and threw it to Huaiyin Master beside him. His gaze remained fixed on the main peak, confirming that the Heavenly Tribulation had not reached them. He then silently circulated his Xuan Gong to regulate his breath and waited quietly for the heart demon tribulation to unfold.

In fact, Qin Sang did not have a precise understanding of the power of Heavenly Dao Demon Sound, after all, he had no personal experience. He could only estimate a rough range.
The main peak is full of strange phenomena.
After the upheaval of the great storm, dark clouds gathered, and heavenly thunder descended upon the world.
Here, thunder roared, its sound shaking the heavens and earth.
One after another, bolts of tribulation lightning rained down upon the main peak. Within the boundless sea of thunder and lightning, flashes of treasure light appeared intermittently, and there were occasional cracking sounds, as if formations and magical treasures had been shattered by the celestial thunder.

The most striking thing was a black wishful rod.
At the beginning, it only appeared occasionally. After the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, Master Zhitan began to focus on wielding this black wishful rod. It moved like a black dragon, swirling up and down, able to open its mouth to swallow thunder above and coil around to protect its master below.
The terrifying thunderclap startled the assembled monks, causing their eyelids to twitch. They were unsure of Master Zhi Tan's condition, but judging by Heihei's demeanor, its light flickered between bright and dim, seemingly not at ease either.
Amidst everyone's anxiety, the tribulation clouds birthed the final bolt of heavenly lightning, striking the main peak. At the same time, a surge of spiritual energy followed the lightning and flooded down from the sky.
On the main peak.
At some point during the time when Master Zhitan was being washed over by Lei Jie and Ling Chao, a incense stick appeared beside him. With a solemn expression, he raised his sleeve and lit it with a wave of his hand.
A sweet scent wafts in, clearing the mind.
At the same time, Master Zhitan finally ‘heard’ the Heavenly Demon Sound!
At this moment, Qin Sang, Master Hua Yin, and Master Xing Ji on the opposite side all flew towards the main peak. They saw the tribulation remnant formation on the main peak and the old monk sitting cross-legged in the formation.
Suddenly, Master Xingji sighed deeply towards the heavens.
When Qin Sang heard the transmission from Master Xingji, his tone was filled with pity, "Master Zhi Tan is too obsessed with the secret arts of breaking through."
Only then did Master Zhi Tan, weep and laugh at the same time. He would sometimes burst into laughter, shaking with mirth, and sometimes cry out in anguish. At times, he even acted lasciviously. All seven emotions and six desires were on full display as he instantly experienced countless heart demons and illusionary realms. Whether weeping or laughing, his demeanor was increasingly crazed.
This is the manifestation of a demon in the heart, devoid of good fortune.
The鎮靈香 was burning beside him, its fragrance curling upward, but it couldn't pull Master Zhitan out of his heart demon tribulation.
Qin Sang sighed inwardly. He had heard of Purple Thunder Immortal's performance at the time. Even at the brink of death, he could still struggle for a glimmer of clarity. Now, Master Zhi Tan's performance was even worse than Purple Thunder Immortal's.
It is not that the incense for pacifying spirits has no effect, because their experiences and dispositions differ, as do their magical artifacts and practices. Without the incense for pacifying spirits, Master Zhi Tan's performance would certainly have been much worse.

The Great Master's evaluation hit the nail on the head. Master Zhi-Tan had only spent three hundred years accumulating his strength, and who knows how much time he had spent preparing beforehand. Because he was too obsessed with this secret technique, he was unable to turn back.
Qin Sang and Master Xingji looked at each other, silently withdrew from the back mountain, and no longer looked at Master Zhi Tan's chaotic emotions and unruly desires. They preserved the face of Dabaicheng Temple.
The monks gathered around the main peak, their faces filled with sorrow.
The next day.
Qin Sang sensed the stillness enchantment being activated. He pushed open the door and saw Master Huai Yin standing at the threshold, his expression back to normal. He bowed respectfully, "This monk thanks Your Excellency for protecting our temple."
Qin Sang sighed and said, "Master, there's no need for so many formalities. Master Zhi Tan knew it couldn't be done but still did it. I am not as capable as you, please master, take care of yourself."
Master Zhi Tan met his end. If he had failed to overcome the tribulation, everything would be simplified. He perished in the heart demon tribulation, leaving behind his entire body. The monks, wanting him to depart peacefully, burned his physical remains and placed his relics in a Buddha niche.
Qin Sang waited until the supernormal ritual ended before bidding farewell and leaving.
When he departed, he traveled with the Master of Compassion.
After Master Zhi Tan's passing, all the monks, including Master Huaiyin, looked at Qin Sang with a newfound respect in their eyes. Outsiders couldn't figure it out; was it because the superior spirit-calming incense had an effect far exceeding that of ordinary incense, or was it because this Qin Zhenjun possessed such a perfect and impeccable mind
Qin Sang was also dubious now. Having witnessed the power of the Heavenly Demon Sound firsthand, he knew just how terrifying this tribulation was. Was the superior spirit-suppressing incense really effective
But no matter what, refining a superior spirit calming incense is essential. After all, they have three medicinal embryos. After refining, they can try the efficacy first.
Let's go back to Zhongzhou.
The Master of Charity invited Qin Sang to go to the Ganyul Zen Monastery, but Qin Sang refused.
Xītú is just one of many regions. There are even farther seas like Cānglàng and Beihǎi. We shouldn't delay.
He had finished explaining everything before, and he didn't even reply to Luye. Instead, he crossed the East Sea directly and entered the storm zone from there.
He is going to visit Canglang Sea first.
This is a test. Please note that the HTML tags will remain unchanged in the output.
Before leaving Behai, he had given orders that people in Behai should continue to search for the Feisheng Platform. However, unlike Zhongzhou and Xitu who dedicated their entire territories to the search.

After becoming a Deity Transformation Stage cultivator, traversing the storm zone was completely different from his experience as a Yuan Ying Stage cultivator.
He could initially mobilize the power of heaven and earth, directly absorbing the chaotic spiritual energy from the storm. Although it was far less convenient than in the cultivation world, it could replenish his consumption and support him for a longer time, so he didn't need to borrow the Ten Directions Earth-Splitting Divine Shuttle from Liuli.
Qin Sang did not rush, he flew leisurely and used this time to comprehend various divine skills.
It is necessary to refine the golden energy within one's body. Additionally, Qin Sang discovered that the "Inner Lion Seal" and the "Seven Masters Buddha Seal" are both Buddha Seals and can be contemplated together, with good results.
He would occasionally unsheathe the Grey Nightingale Sword and practice the "Seven Constellations' Bordering Sword Formation."

The poisonous orbs within were constantly devouring the poison fumes.
On the journey of travel, strength gradually increases.
Perhaps Qin Sang was lucky. Having ridden the storm winds for nearly twenty years, he hadn't encountered any ferocious beasts.d although they launched a surprise attack, it was only moderately effective. They still fell into a long war spanning over a century."What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others..."Let...
