Chapter 718: The Road Ahead

a surge of exhilaration washing over him. He rose to his feet abruptly.This is not familiar territory for Shi Dan. The Jindan cultivator from the Qingyang Demon Sect has been gone for two hours alread..."After fifteen years here, it's about time I went back."

A soft sigh escaped from the cave dwelling.

Qin Sang looked around. The cave dwelling was simply furnished, but not spartan. What was most remarkable was the abundance of spiritual energy, no less than those exquisite cave abodes.

To be able to find such an excellent cave dwelling in the vast Demon Sea is a very fortunate thing.

These years, he has been very satisfied with his life in the Sea of Demons, simply enjoying himself to the fullest.

With the 混元同心環 as a warning, Qin Sang encountered true danger very few times. Before his departure, he prepared numerous pills and other items, most of which are still intact.

Given his temperament, it wouldn't be too late to go back even after supplies run out. Unfortunately, he only had two six-petaled violet orchids left in his possession, and they were dwindling fast. If he didn't return soon, the Heavenly Eye butterflies would starve.

The six-petal violas on Maple Leaf Island must be in full bloom by now, but Qin Sang is oblivious to the outside world. He has no idea how the conflict between the two clans has escalated or whether he will be able to reach Maple Leaf Island safely.

Over the years, Qin Sang's cultivation level has been steadily improving, and at the same time, the two spiritual worms have been growing at an astonishing rate.

Having just settled here, the fat silkworm absorbed all the poison pills. As expected, it smoothly transitioned to the middle stage of the second molt.

To Qin Sang's surprise, after transitioning to the middle stage, its absorption speed of the poison pills became faster and faster, while the effects of the poison pills were not as obvious as before.

After absorbing all the poison pills Qin Sang had prepared for it, it was only a line away from breaking through to the later stage, and the effect of the poison pills was gradually weakening.

Qin Sang, seeing this, took out the true demon pill of the venomous beast and gave it to the fat silkworm. After some initial stumbles, the fat silkworm was finally able to directly absorb the demon pill of the venomous beast, which secretly relieved Qin Sang. Otherwise, he really didn't know what to feed the fat silkworm.

The ability of the Fat Silkworm was proven in several battles against poisonous beasts.

The multicolored aura transformed into a poison-proof armor, which can now withstand the venom of early-stage poisonous beasts from the Demon Pill.

The Destroying Poison Armor was as thin as a cicada's wing. Qin Sang wore it, and with the naked eye, it was almost invisible. When fighting cultivators proficient in poisons in the future, he would have the upper hand.

A fat silkworm held a venomous beast demon pill in its arms, fast asleep in the insect cage. It had successfully broken through to the late stage of its second transformation.

In comparison, the Tianmu butterfly's growth rate is not as fast. Although it also broke through to the middle stage three years ago, the time for its third metamorphosis should be later than that of the fat silkworm.

Jingle...

The Hun Yuan Tong Xin ring rose into the air, and a white light burst forth. The two-headed hound appeared before Qin Sang.

Its injuries are showing signs of improvement, and the wounds are starting to heal.

After being released, the two-headed hellhound suddenly flipped over and stood up. Its fur bristled, its eyes glowed menacingly, and it bared its teeth, letting out a low growl at Qin Sang.

Qin Sang's face darkened, the Hun Yuan Tong Xin Huan tightened, and the two-headed hellhound immediately felt a terrifying pain at the soul level. It let out screams, fell to the ground, trembling all over, sometimes curling up into a ball, its wounds bursting without realizing it.

When the pain reached its peak, he even used his head to ram against the stone walls of the cave.

Qin Sang looked on coldly, his expression remaining unchanged.

Finally, the two-headed hound turned into a puddle of mud, barely clinging to life, only then did Qin Sang stop his punishment.

“I know your intelligence is not comparable to those savage sea beasts, you should be able to understand what I mean.”

Qin Sang walked over, grasped the two-headed hound's neck, and stared straight into its erect pupils.

Faced with such a defiant monster, Qin Sang also had a headache.

On this journey, similar scenes happened several times, but they couldn't make the two-headed hellhound submit. After all, that Azure Shark had given up after the second time and surrendered to Qin Sang.

The two-headed hound had no strength left in its body, but it still stubbornly glared with its twin eyes. However, deep within its eyes, there was a profound fatigue that Qin Sang keenly detected.

"It's impossible for me to let you go or kill you. Whether you like it or not, the Hunyuan Tongxinhuan will eventually make you submit. It's better to accept your fate. There are countless demonic beasts who have been taken as mounts by cultivators, and you're not the only one. You saw what happened to that Qingjiao, I won't keep you bound for life. When I find a better demonic beast, or when you become useless to me, I will give you your freedom... on the condition that you obey my orders!"

The two-headed hound's eyes flickered.

Qin Sang fed it another pill and put the Yang Ring away again.

Two months later.

Qin Sang's figure appeared on the sea surface, holding a nautical chart. After identifying the direction, he decided to head north, retracing his steps along the path he had taken before.

The South Road is not so easy to recover, the cultivators are powerful and strange. Qin Sang weighed it carefully and still decided to take the North Road.

>He was also curious if the cold flame was still in its original place, or if it had already been taken by the transformed demon.

After discovering the Shapeshifting Demon was attracted to the Cold Flame and appeared in this sea area, Qin Sang was very uneasy for a while and acted cautiously. Later, he found that there had been no movement in the Demon Sea, so he felt relieved.

During that period, only two years ago, there was a brief disturbance among the demonic beasts. By the time Qin Sang sensed something amiss, it was already coming to an end.

Qin Sang ventured north to investigate, suspecting that the anomaly was caused by a shapeshifting demon passing through again. However, this time was different from the last. After decades, the shapeshifting demon finally returned.

No one knows what the great demon who transformed into human form has been doing lurking near Huntian Island for over ten years.

Qin Sang suspected that since the shapeshifting monster was willing to go back, it was very likely that it had succeeded.

Having spent fifteen years here, Qin Sang was very familiar with this sea area. He easily found the best route and, with a wave of his arm, the two-headed dog appeared beside him.

The two-headed hound lay low in the water.

>

Its intercostal muscles flashed with blue light, transforming into a pair of extraordinarily beautiful wind wings. Judging by its aura, its injuries were clearly healed.

Qin Sang straddled the two-headed glutton's back, pointed in a direction after which, he closed his eyes slightly and began to meditate. The two-headed glutton shook its head, unwillingly stood up, flapped its wings, and soared into the wind.

Half a month later, Qin Sang saw the large island at the exit of the Qian Yao Sea.

The sea to the west of Oshima looked perfectly normal. Still, Qin Sang decided to be cautious and put away the two-headed dog before proceeding alone.

When facing danger, a single person is more likely to be able to hide and escape.

Having entered the Thousand Demons Sea, Qin Sang returned along the original path. Along the way, he didn't encounter any hordes of demonic beasts. His always tense heart gradually relaxed, and he smoothly arrived near the Cold Flame Island.

On the vast expanse of water, a phantom figure appeared. Qin Sang turned his body to face the north, towards the direction where Han Yan was located.

After a moment's hesitation, Qin Sang pinched The Escape Spirit Art. His palm turned over, revealing a scroll in his hand – the magical artifact he had seized from the young witch, capable of inducing hallucinations.

The scroll unfurled gently, flying to Qin Sang's head and slowly opening to reveal a stunningly exquisite painting of mountains and forests. The scene depicted lush forests, blooming flowers in abundance, and breathtaking beauty.

Petals and leaves fly, falling from the painting as if sprinkled around. They whirl about before vanishing silently, their final destination unknown.d then ran away.Even the little red-tailed cranes were enraged, but unfortunately, they were too weak to stop Qin Sang.Qin Sang employed his old trick again, using the power of Jiuyou Demon Fire to dr...
