could retrieve it. Even taking it out to observe wouldn't be a problem, but he couldn't just hand it over when the prince asked for it.>Qin Sang glanced at the county princess, but saw her leaning aga...The Sky Peak was sealed by a powerful formation. Standing at the edge of the formation, Tianfeng could clearly feel the heart-palpitating waves coming from ahead. Even an Elder like Di Que, who had reached the Core Formation stage, wouldn't dare to enter recklessly.

Fortunately, within the protective formation, there is a mountain path available for passage.

The mountain path was winding and narrow, leading into the depths of mist and clouds. Along the way, the scenery changed constantly, traversing grasslands, dense forests, ravines, as well as temples, thatched huts, and stone halls...

Everywhere glowed with the light of prohibitions, dozens upon dozens of them.

As can be seen, it is not so easy to reach the summit safely through the mountain path's restrictions.

At this time, Qin Sang and the three of them concealed their figures, standing on the mountain path. In front of them was the entrance to the protective array. The mountain path entered a grove of trees, disappearing into the depths of the forest, and then extended out from behind the grove.

In the forest, all the trees were dead and withered, with not a single leaf remaining. Their twisted forms resembled monstrous skeletons from afar. The shadows on the ground looked like countless gnashing ghosts.

This is a dead forest!

>

The Dead Forest was riddled with intricate and formidable prohibitions, layered upon each other in a chilling display. A sinister light pulsed like hungry jaws, waiting to swallow any trespasser whole.

At first glance, the dead trees in the forest appear to be chaotic. However, upon closer inspection, one can discover that each tree and every branch possesses a unique pattern, harmonizing with the restrictions of nature.

"You go first!"

The old man pointed at Qin Sang with one finger, and took out that conch-shaped treasure, handing it to him.

"Take this ancient Sound Conch of mine. It contains my remaining spiritual power and markings, and I will cooperate with you to break the seal. However, I have other matters to attend to and cannot fully devote myself to this task. Therefore, when breaking the seal, you must exert yourself to the fullest and not always rely on me to intervene. Otherwise, if danger arises, I may not be able to save you..."

Qin Sang took the Heavenly Sound Conch and sensed it with his divine consciousness.

Although Qin Sang had a Ten Directions Yama Flag, a powerful magic treasure, within his mustard seed pouch, this was the first time he was truly using it. The power contained within the treasure astonished and envied Qin Sang.

I wonder when I'll be able to control this much power!

Like in the Cavern of Souls, he could freely manipulate the Heavenly Sound Conch and control the Thousand Phantom Divine Sounds within it wielded by the Elder of the Earth Void. However, he was merely a conductor. Furthermore, the restrictions in place hindered his ability to act. In extremely complex situations, the Elder of the Earth Void found it difficult to assist in time.

Only oneself can truly be trusted.

The aged man sat cross-legged before the barrier, gesturing for Qin Sang to enter.

Qin Sang took a deep breath, clutched the Tianyin Snail tightly in his palm, and stepped into the prohibition. Immediately, everything in his sight disappeared, including the road, the Heavenly Peak, the Elder of Di Que, and Ren Hong...

He was in a ghostly dead forest, unable to see outside, and those outside were unable to see him.

Outside the forbidden area, the old man from Dique stared intently at the dead forest with a serious expression on his face.

Ren Hong couldn't see what was inside the restriction, so he had to wait there idly, but there was undeniable worry in his eyes. After all, the next restriction would most likely be broken by him.

Qin Sang stood motionless, his gaze scanning the surrounding withered trees inch by inch.

This dead forest merged perfectly with the restrictions here, airtight and utterly silent. There were no roads in the dead forest, perhaps they were hidden, he had to forcefully break through the restrictions and find a way to unlock them.

After a moment's hesitation, Qin Sang slapped the Corpse Puppet Bag, and a corpse puppet flew out.

Anyway, his identity had been exposed. The old man in charge of the land knew everything about him. He had already made up his mind that once he found the opportunity, he would flee elsewhere, so there was no need to hide his methods of refining corpses.

The most important thing now is to stay alive under the ban.

“Reanimate corpses…”

The old man outside the gate seemed a little surprised, chuckled softly, and didn't interfere.

Observing every detail in the dead forest, and the changing layers of prohibitions, Qin Sang looked back and forth several times before finally settling his gaze between two withered trees.

The restrictions in the Dead Forest were very mysterious, and their power was evident. Fortunately, he had studied the restriction techniques from his senior sister Qing Ting, so he wasn't completely clueless and helpless.

However, the restrictions in the dead forest far exceeded his ability to reach. To truly understand every change in the restrictions, he had to test them himself.

Qin Sang stared at the two dead trees, deciding to make a breakthrough here.

"Go!"

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

Qin Sang ordered Sha Shi to go ahead, but he himself quickly followed suit.

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

The power of the prohibition is extremely strong, here even corpses and mortals are as fragile as glass. Once triggered, if Qin Sang is too far away, he will not have time to rescue them.

It's impossible to rely solely on the corpses to break the seal. Even a large number of them wouldn't withstand such consumption. Qin Sang only allowed them to scout ahead, giving himself some time.

Step by step, Qin Sang walked to the gap between the trees. He took a deep look at the flickering light of the seal, then suddenly darted inside.

'...whoosh whoosh...'

In an instant, two withered trees trembled without warning, like living things, swaying their bodies. Their twisted and ugly branches suddenly straightened, their tips pointing directly at Qin Sang. Then, like a dense hailstorm of arrows, they shot towards him with a sharp whistling sound.

Even not just these two trees, the surrounding dead trees came to life, instantly dancing wildly.

Qin Sang had already expected this, just about to counterattack when the Tianyin snail in his hand suddenly trembled. A clear sound came from it, followed by the cold snort of the Old Man Dique. A mass of Qian Huan Shen Yin power flew out from the snail shell and instantly submerged into the trunk of the withered tree on Qin Sang's right side.

The branches of the withered tree quivered, seemingly unchanged, and continued to lash out menacingly towards Qin Sang's attack.

Qin Sang clearly saw that there was a flash of cyan light on the dead tree's trunk, which disappeared in an instant, blocked by the Thousand Illusion Divine Sound.

Another talisman...

"

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

Qin Sang suddenly realized, no wonder the elder was so cautious, as if facing a formidable enemy, letting himself scout ahead.

Master Xuan Yu left behind more than just this talisman, there may even be other hidden tricks. Elder Di Que must search with all his might and leave no stone unturned.

Even if a single talisman is missed and noticed by Xuan Yu, all previous efforts will be in vain.

Could I take this opportunity to warn Xuan Yu Daochang and then escape while the two of them are fighting

Qin Sang immediately gave up this idea.

Not to mention whether Daoist Xuan Yu would fight desperately with the Old Man of Di Que, he was far away on the mountaintop, perhaps even inside an ancient cultivator's cave dwelling. The closest to him was the Old Man of Di Que, who would surely crush him first.

The miscellaneous thoughts in his heart were instantly suppressed, and the old man's actions had no effect on Qin Sang.

He still focused intently on the branches, his gaze sharp and piercing, instantly knowing all the changes. Then with a thought, the Heavenly Sound Conch flared brightly, enveloping him and the Corpse Demon, almost simultaneously flashing away, leaving trails of afterimages.

The withered branches writhed like the hair of a demon, incredibly flexible. As Qin Sang moved, they instantly coiled around him, tearing his afterimage to shreds.
