As soon as his divine sense appeared, a flock after flock of firebirds were startled, and Qin Sang's figure was quickly engulfed by them.When the number of firebirds reached a...The robes issued by the Yuanzhao sect were destroyed by an explosion in the cave. Qin Sang had no time to tidy himself up, and after months of fleeing, he became as wild as a savage.
As the weather grew warmer, people became more numerous. The towns along the way were increasingly prosperous. Qin Sang felt that it was almost time. He changed into a clean set of clothes and blended into a small town to inquire about his current location.

The State of Zheng...
Qin Sang was devouring a large steamed bun filled with fresh meat at the baozi shop. He had just asked and learned that this place was within the borders of Zheng State, and he felt a sense of familiarity. Suddenly, he remembered the map of geomancy given to him by Han Xian Shi, which also showed Zheng State.
Leaving the steamed bun shop, Qin Sang found a deserted place and took out the feng shui map from his pouch, sighing with relief.
>Indeed, Zheng Guo existed above and was located at the westernmost point on the topographical map. If one continued westward, they would go beyond the scope of the map.

Zheng Guo was located to the southwest of Youshan Mountain Range, with a considerable distance in between. It had already become the territory of the righteous path.

In the southern part of the state of Zheng, there is a place called Jiuding Mountain. Although it is not as famous as You Mountain, looking at the map, its icy peak, shown only partially, is considered one of the notable mountains in the area.
Qin Sang thought about it and decided to go to Jiuding Mountain, find a secluded and spiritually potent place to open a cave dwelling, first heal his old injuries, and see if he could find other cultivators to inquire about some information. Then he would continue south, escaping to the heartland of righteous forces.
Although Qin Sang didn't know the outcome of that night, thinking about the terrifying sun and the unexpected appearance of the Golden Core expert at the end, he felt that the Kui Yin Sect might not fare well.
For such a long time, he had never seen anyone from the Guiyin Sect catch up. This gradually calmed his always anxious heart.
Nine Peaks Mountain, Phoenix Peak.
Once upon a time, Phoenix Peak was the most beautiful of the Nine Peaks. It was home to countless captivating legends.
From afar, the Phoenix Peak looks like a divine phoenix spreading its wings and about to fly. Sadly, a mysterious earthquake later struck the Phoenix Peak, causing the divine phoenix stone to collapse and be destroyed.
Although Jiuding Mountain still retains its name, Fenghuangding has gradually been forgotten, becoming an ordinary peak.
Then one day, the top of Mount Fènghuáng was suddenly enveloped by the long-standing mist. Anyone who wandered into the mist would get lost and wander around for a long time before being able to escape. As a result, more and more legends began to circulate.
Little did they know, this once Phoenix Peak had become a gathering place for cultivators near Jiuding Mountain. The surrounding mist that wouldn't dissipate was actually a simple barrier, designed to keep ordinary people out.
Every time the month comes to an end, scattered cultivators near Jiuding Mountain and monks from some small cultivation families would gather on Jiuding Mountain. The number wasn't large, not as bustling as a cultivator market, and they were mostly low-level cultivators. However, they could still connect with each other, exchange cultivation insights and some tidbits of information.

Today is the end of the month. Several rays of light arrived early this morning, accompanied by each other, and then one after another, people walked into the mist.
When the sky was bright, a woman about thirty years old fell in front of the Phoenix Peak. She looked at the young man beside her with surprise and said, "Daoist Qin, your Yun Dun technique is really useful. It's more hidden than my Shui Dun technique, and it's much faster. Thank you for being willing to teach me."

Qin Sang smiled and nodded.
The woman accompanying him was named Li Youniang, over thirty years old. She had originally been an ordinary person from a small village outside Jiuding Mountain. She had married at the age of more than ten.

Later, when her husband was chopping wood on the mountain, he saved an injured cultivator. The cultivator was seriously injured and dying. To express his gratitude for saving his life, he decided to pass down his immortal techniques before he died. Unfortunately, only Li You'ng had a spiritual root, and it was a four-spirit root. It took her many years of cultivation to reach the third level of the Qi Refining period.

However, after receiving the inheritance of cultivators, Li You's mother did not leave the village to seek immortals and learn from the Tao, nor did she despise her husband as an ordinary person. Instead, she always hid herself among worldly affairs and lived a simple life.

Now there are three children, the family is happy and harmonious.
A half month ago, her husband suddenly fell gravely ill. Li You-niang anxiously went to Fenghuangding for medicine, coincidentally passing by Qin Sang's cave abode and being stopped by him.
>
At that time, Qin Sang found a secluded mountain stream on Jiuding Mountain and opened up a cave to recuperate.
He had intended to contact nearby independent cultivators and gather information. Li Youniang's arrival was a pleasant surprise, and he was naturally willing to make her acquaintance. Upon hearing about her troubles, he immediately took out a pill and gave it to her. As expected, the medicine cured her illness.
Li Youniang regarded Qin Sang as her savior. Upon hearing his request, she readily agreed to bring him to the Phoenix Peak gathering. She also informed him that if he wanted to gather intel, it would be best to wait until the last day of the month.
Her master had a good friend named Yu Lian before he passed away. Yu Lian was a disciple of the Yu family, a cultivating family near Jiuding Mountain. He was well-informed and liked to make friends. Every month's end, he would gather on Phoenix Peak to chat and discuss matters.
The nearby wandering cultivators' understanding of the cultivation world primarily came from him.
Qin Sang stayed at Li Youniang's house until the end of the month, when she finally set off. Seeing Li Youniang's family living together harmoniously and happily, although Qin Sang didn't agree with her choice, she also admired her perseverance.
Li Youniang concealed her joy and said, "Daoist Qin, please follow me. I'll introduce you to Master Yu right away."
The illusionary barrier at the peak of Phoenix Mountain was useless against cultivators. With a glance, one could see a straight path leading to the summit. Following Li You'ning, Qin Sang was surprised to discover that Phoenix Peak had a different kind of beauty.
On the Shen Feng stone remnants lay a hollowed-out white rhinoceros horn, an inferior magic artifact that only served to condense water vapor. The gap faced the small stream below, and a constant flow of water gushed out from the white rhinoceros horn. The stream tinkled merrily, winding its way down the mountainside. Along its path were pavilions, water-side pleasure gardens, and flowing streams, exuding an air of elegance and refinement.
In the pavilions of various sizes, there were already many cultivators gathered in small groups. Li Youniang greeted everyone along the way and walked up, looking very familiar. They were all scattered cultivators from around Jiu Ding Mountain.
Seeing Qin Sang's unfamiliar face, everyone was curious, but no one asked too much.
Li Yungan led Qin Sang all the way to Phoenix Mountaintop, coming to a bamboo pavilion. Inside, seven people surrounded a man about seventy years old with a long beard, drinking and talking.
To talk about the recent happenings in the cultivation world, indeed a few major events have taken place...
The goat-bearded old man took a sip of wine, slightly tipsy. He felt lively and deliberately raised his voice. Just as he was halfway through speaking, he saw Li Youniang and Qin Sang, so he enthusiastically beckoned them over, "Youniang is here, come in and sit down, help your master warm two pots of wine. Eh Who is this Daoist friend"
“Master Yu, this is Friend Qin Dao, he is Sī Lang’s savior,” Li Youniang introduced Qin Sang, and explained the whole story from beginning to end.

Qin Sang stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Qin Sang greets his senior."
Yu Lian's intoxication faded from his face. His small eyes scanned Qin Sang and said, "Miss Yu and Si Lang are truly fortunate to have met a friend as kind and generous as Daoist Qin. Please come in." room, emitting a gentle warmth, yet Yagu shivered uncontrollably.Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!Her face drained of color, her lips pressed tight.
