Chapter 1696: Great Five Elements Banishing Godlight

also have similar secret arts, all of which are closely guarded secrets.I wonder if the worm taming skills of those powerful Wu tribes are richer and more detailed than my own Qichong list.>The Art o...Divine Puppet

Mo Xingdao immediately became alert, and his eyes changed.

The Sage of Brightness pretended not to see and continued, "The Heavenly Dao's demonic sound is like a sword at one's back. We cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage are also trapped beasts in a cage, but we are unwilling to be slaughtered. There is still a glimmer of hope in the East Sea Ruins. This monk and the Holy King will settle their affairs and then cross the sea to ascend, we won't stay in this world for too long. We don't have much time left. Even if both clans join forces, it's impossible to create a Nascent Soul puppet out of nothing.This monk observed Master Mo's puppet, even at the Core Formation stage, it could comprehend Yin-Yang Esoteric Arts, its potential is extraordinary. This monk and the Holy King are willing to fully support Master in refining the puppet further!"

As a lone wanderer, Mo Xindao had gone through countless storms and tribulations, experiencing both great heights and crushing lows.

His tempered and tested mind allowed Mo Xingdao to quickly regain his composure, restore his rationality and thinking ability, and realize the true purpose of the two clans' divine transformation.

It turns out they were eyeing their own puppet!

However, no hardship compares to the despair brought by Tian Dao Demon Sound. Mo Xingdao was enveloped by the hopelessness revealed in Hui Guang Saint's words, unable to extricate himself.

He was a bit lost.

Any grandmaster, upon hearing this, would likely react similarly.

Throughout his life, he dedicated himself wholeheartedly to cultivation, unwavering in his focus. He abandoned the readily available wealth and pleasures, because he always had a clear goal before him: to break through to the realm of Divine Transformation.

Ascension!

Transcendence!

Now that their goals have crumbled, everything they strived for has lost its meaning. Can they truly let go of their obsession with the Dao and become immersed in worldly pleasures, even indulging in debauchery and living a meaningless life

Now that the two clans have attained divine status, do they want him to surrender the puppet willingly, or are they planning to offer something in exchange

Countless thoughts flashed through Mo Xingdao's mind.

Glanlu Zen Monastery is the leader of Buddhism and the overlord of the cultivation world. It's certain that it could offer all sorts of tempting conditions, but apart from ascension, none of them could arouse even a shred of interest in him!

"Ancient Demon! Fiend Beast!"

Mo Xingdao's mind flashed with inspiration, and he exclaimed, "Since it's demonic sound, you captured the ancient demon, didn't you ask anything Also, what about the ferocious beasts going mad in the storm belt Could it be because something happened to their nest"

When Mo Xingdao recovered so quickly and grasped the key points, Huiguang Saint couldn't help but look at him with favor. He explained: "Regarding the origin of the Heavenly Demon Sound, there are currently two speculations: One is that the Demon Sound existed originally, and the Immortal Palace was an object suppressing the Demon Sound, protecting the creatures of this world. With the ascension of the Immortal Palace, this world lost its protector, and we are now facing threats. If so, the change may have just begun, and no one knows if it will ultimately lead to the collapse of the barrier and the extinction of living beings; another speculation is that the ascension of the Immortal Palace triggered turmoil in this world, and an unknown event occurred in the depths of Guihu. That place could be the source of the Demon Sound. The ferocious beasts originally lived in the East Sea Guihu and generally wouldn't roam around. Guihu is the most mysterious and unpredictable place in this world. To this day, no one has been able to explore the secrets of the deep Guihu. Countless predecessors at the Nascent Soul stage went back and forth before painstakingly opening up a path leading to the Dao Mark Gate."

The Saint of Wisdom paused, allowing Mo Xindao to digest these secrets. Then he said, "This monk has ordered people to closely monitor the storm belt, striving to capture a ferocious beast alive. As for the Ancient Demon...this time, this monk and the Holy King have been trying to find a way to help the Ancient Demon recover consciousness. Finally, it was discovered that the Ancient Demon and the spirit were like one body, and their bodies contained at least three different consciousnesses, devouring each other, and being attacked by the heavenly demonic sound, becoming extremely chaotic. They were occupied by madness and chaos, and their intelligence might have been completely extinguished. It will probably take at least hundreds of years, or even longer, to have a glimmer of hope for recovery. Moreover, due to the ever-present Heavenly Demon Sound, it is almost impossible to accomplish."

As they spoke, the Sage of Wisdom brought Mo Xindao into the inner chamber and showed him the demon body on the Sealing Demon Stake.

The demon's body had become even more horrifying, a chilling sight to behold. Its flesh swelled and bulged, its facial features twisted into grotesque positions, contorted in agony like a terrifying fleshy orb.

Unknown what means the two celestial beings used, the demonic body calmed down and no longer roared, but Mo Xingdao could feel the madness radiating from within the demonic body.

Previously, they all thought it was caused by the Demon Stain. Only now do they realize that it was the Heavenly Dao Demonic Sound that was the true culprit.

The Holy Light did not conceal the state of Mo Xingdao's demonic body from him, and he also explained their intentions in detail. “The spiritual consciousness is lost, and it has less resistance and rejection to external forces. The monk and the Sacred King have pondered for a long time, learning from the method of using formations to control artifacts used by the Wuxiang Xianmen sect in the past. There is a good chance that we can manipulate this treasure. The strongest power of the Five Elements Crown is called the Great Five Elements Forbidden Divine Light. It's "forbidden" and "reverse". The reversed Five Elements Divine Light is used to destroy and kill, and we deeply experienced it during the Suppression of Demons war. The positive Five Elements Divine Light is excellent at sealing. There is no other treasure in the world that surpasses it. It is what the monk and the Sacred King value most. When we encountered fierce beasts in the Ruins, we used the Five Elements Sealing to restrict the beasts and quickly escaped, so as not to attract more danger. However…”

With a shift in his tone, the Wise One Huiguang said solemnly: "Precisely because of the crazed spirit, controlling the Five Elemental Crowns will cause madness to infect the wielder. It requires multiple people to share the burden."

"In that case, Mo's puppet is surely something the two seniors must have."

Mo Xingdao smiled wryly, knowing he had no ability to resist. He simply spoke plainly, "I wonder how senior plans to have me offer up the puppet..."

The Sage of Shining Light cast him a deep glance and said, "To see if that puppet is the master's natal puppet or not."

Mo Xingdao said silently, "So what if it's not my natal puppet"

“The monk and the Saint King will take out treasures, within our capabilities, to satisfy all your requests. After this, you can come and go freely in both the mainland and the East China Sea, and no one will dare to make things difficult for you. Gulan Zen Temple and the descendants of the Mo family will forever be allies…”

The sage of wisdom spoke eloquently.

These promises, if heard by others, would surely delight them.

Mo Xingdao didn't even bother to raise an eyelid, "So what if it's a natal puppet"

This was precisely why the two clans had expended so much effort explaining to him.

A natal puppet differs greatly from an ordinary puppet. Similar to a natal magic treasure, it is deeply connected to its master, sharing weal and woe. Their fates are intertwined at the Dao foundation level. If the master falls, the puppet's strength will plummet drastically, losing all potential.

Had they not suspected the puppet to be Mo Xingdao's soulbound, they wouldn't have resorted to force. They could simply threaten him with his true self and demand the puppet's surrender. There was no fear that Mo Xingdao would refuse.

Even though the Sage of Wisdom considered the face of the righteous leader, and it was not good to openly seize power by force, there were still many ways to coerce and entice.

"Only with the threat of Heavenly Dao Demon Sound can we still have the power to resist. Having heard that the Puppet Way has a secret art similar to Soul Fusion, we could wholeheartedly help Lord further advance his puppets. With Lord using the Soul Fusion secret art to enter the puppet, he could control the power of the Nascent Soul stage puppet. Could this circumvent the Heavenly Tribulation" The Holy One of Wisdom spoke, but it was a question in return.

Mo Xingdao's face changed upon hearing this. "Insufficient realm, forcibly merging with a puppet, will inevitably be backlashed by the puppet's body. Even if successful, controlling it for a while, the consequences are unimaginable. At best, there will be no further progress in the future, at worst, you will lose yourself and become an unconscious puppet!"

The Holy Light gazed at him, silent.

Mo Xingdao quickly calmed down and realized that, for himself, this proposal might be the best choice.

Think about the fate of Zilei Zhenren. Mo Xindao doesn't believe his heart can surpass Zilei Zhenren, and breaking through on his own is definitely a dead end.

Normalizing the spirit and ascending, this path won't work. We'll have to find another way.

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

First, we must free ourselves from this earthly prison and ascend to the higher realms. Only then, when we've experienced a broader world, can we seek solutions to our problems. It's truly a helpless act.

Even without the pressure of ascension, this was his only remaining path.

It's a great opportunity for him that the Sage of Huiguang and the Holy King of Qinghu are willing to help him refine puppets. Even if his natal puppet has fused with Yin-Yang Puppet Crystals, it would be very difficult for him to upgrade his puppet to the Nascent Soul stage on his own.

If he misses this opportunity, and after the two Nascent Souls leave, if he wants to do this again, he won't find any helpers.

Seeing Mo Xingdao's silence, the Holy Light Sage said again, "If you have enough confidence, we can also help you forcefully break through to the Nascent Soul stage. With puppets guarding your path, you may have a sliver more chance of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation than others. However, if you fail the tribulation and perish before the Heart Demon Tribulation, this poor monk and the Saint King will use a secret technique to extract your remaining true nature and put it into the puppet. This can allow the puppet to temporarily avoid falling in cultivation, and we will control it. Of course, this secret technique is not permanent, so you don't have to worry about being controlled by us forever and never being able to transcend."

A chill crept down your spine as you heard the words of the Holy Luminary. His tone was chillingly cold and unyielding.

Mo Xingdao felt puzzled, "Why must it be this way Can't we wait for Mo to advance my natal puppet to the Nascent Soul level, and have Mo control the puppet to accompany the two seniors"

The Azure Fox Saint King, who had always been too lazy to speak, let out a sneer upon hearing this, saying dismissively, “Delusional! Not to mention the unimaginable dangers lurking in the depths of the Abyss, the simplest fact is that the spiritual pressure there is not something a mere Yuan Ying stage cultivator could withstand. Before you reach the threshold of the Dao Mark, you'll explode and die…"

The Wise Light Sage nodded slightly. "Over countless years, countless Nascent Soul Stage predecessors who fell on the way to the Gate of Destiny are no longer few in number. The journey to the Dao Mark Gate is fraught with danger, this poor monk and Saint King are busy taking care of themselves, even if you have puppets protecting you, it's difficult to guarantee your safety."

Manzhou.

The bottom of the poison lake.

The former residence of the Spirit Cave Master, remnants of a bygone era.

The incarnation and the Ghost Mother came to greet.

The deity and Liuli felt a connection in their hearts and went out to greet each other.

Upon entering the grotto, Ghost Mother saw Liuli and her eyes lit up. She sized Liuli up and down, letting out two approving clicks of her tongue. She glanced at Qin Sang with a smirk, "What a stunning beauty! No wonder you've been lingering here, forgetting all about your poor family back home!"

Qin Sang was not the first to experience Gui Mu's sharp tongue, his face still stiffened slightly. Who would have thought that a powerful being who lived from ancient times to the present day would be so unrestrained in their speech.

She also has the ability to speak her mind freely.

Sidelong glancing at Liuli, seeing that she only frowned and hadn't gotten angry yet, Qin Sang hurriedly welcomed the Ghost Mother in, changing the subject to ease the tension.

Just so, he had many things to ask the Ghost Mother for advice about.

Through the avatar's consciousness, Qin Sang already knew about occupying Luye and controlling Mingyue Guard, and also knew that he had two more apprentices, which could be considered a nascent force.

I didn't intend to establish a power base in Zhongzhou, but here I am, being pushed into it step by step. Perhaps I should simply open a branch of the Qingyangguan in Zhongzhou. My senior Yunyouzi wouldn't mind spreading our influence.

>Even just the cultivation techniques and secret arts he obtained from the Wu Xiang Xian Men would be enough to support an entire sect.

Although Luye is small, it can be used as a temporary sect's dojo.

However, he still has a lot of trouble that hasn't been resolved. We can discuss those later.

After some pleasantries.

Qin Sang's spirit sank into the Qi Sea, stirring the sword intent of Yun You Jian. He wrapped the sleeping Gu King in a poisonous bead and slowly floated it out from his body.

This ferocious beast was unexpectedly obtained by the junior. Currently, there's no way to handle it, and the risk of exposure is considerable, making it quite troublesome. Please take a look, senior

Recalling the encounter on Emperor's Summit that day, it was clear that Poison King had a way to track Gu King. During this time, Qin Sang and Liuli remained vigilant, closely monitoring news from the ancestral mansion and ready to evacuate at any moment.

I wonder if the Ghost Mother could subdue the Gu King

The Gu King was still asleep, its entire body pure white.

Qin Sang briefly introduces the magical powers and origins of the Gu King.

"It's the art of refining venom."

The Ghost Mother nodded, unafraid of the Poison King suddenly spewing a venomous light. She reached out with her right hand, pinching the Poison King between her fingers and bringing it close to examine it carefully.

Qin Sang noticed that the Ghost Mother's pupils, like stars, flickered with an extraordinary light. He sat quietly, not daring to disturb her.

Fifteen minutes later.

>

The Ghost Mother blinked, her pupils returning to normal. "It's a crudely executed technique of refining insects, but there are some redeeming qualities," she said. "From my observation, it seems like someone has channeled some power and used the art of insect refinement to implant it within the insect body, thus granting it new vitality. The opponent's ability to track you is based on this connection, but it can only sense you within a certain distance, so finding you won't be easy."

After thinking for a moment, the Ghost Mother said: “This matter is not difficult to resolve.”

Then, the Ghost Mother let Qin Sang withdraw his sword intent.

The Gu King sensed the change in the outside world, his wings trembled, and he was about to awaken.

The Ghost Mother's fingers danced, sending out wisps of white mist towards the King of Gu. Soon it enveloped him completely, and then with a clap of her palms, the mist suddenly contracted.

The Gu King's jade-like body was adorned with mottled patterns, resembling celestial clouds.

Qin Sang pressed down with sword intent.

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I can help with that!

The Ghost Mother said, "This vicious insect has been depleted of its potential by crude refining techniques. Its intelligence is low, and unless it obtains a heaven-defying opportunity, there is no chance of advancement. Of course, at least for cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, it is still very threatening. However, if your ambition is not limited to this, why not have the Poison Pearl swallow it The Poison Pearl is a supernatural power realized by the lazy silkworm with the divine silkworm bloodline. Its potential is far superior to this insect."

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

Gui Mu's words and Qin Sang's thoughts coincided.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

With the guidance of Gui Mu, Qin Sang could also make up her mind.

However, the Gu King's toxic light was so powerful. If it were to be swallowed by the poison pearl and only improve its detoxification ability, it would be a waste.

The scope of application of the Bi Dú Jià is narrow. In the cultivation world, masters who use poison are just a few, and its current power is barely usable.

If you can subdue the Gu King, it's better to use some time first. One day, when you yourself have advanced to the realm of a deity, then devour him.

Qin Sang consulted the Ghost Mother on this matter.

Unbeknownst to him, the Ghost Mother slanted her eyes at him, "Having swallowed so many poisons, it's only used for detoxification. The divine silkworm bloodline wouldn't be this simple, would it I only discovered later that the lazy silkworm's true magical power, even if it was only related to the path of poison, hadn't been fully unleashed. Do as I say, swallow the Poison Pearl and devour the Gu King, then you'll naturally be able to command the scorching poison."e by now."Before leaving, Qin Sang learned about Liuli's itinerary and knew they were going to Di Tong Island to obtain the Di Tong fruit.Tong Lingyu no longer beat around the bush, "That's good, Daoi...
