then this is undoubtedly the best outcome.>Here's hoping.Qin Sang secretly shook his head and strode into the Taiyi Dan Pavilion. Immediately, a pretty maid came up to him.Unfurling her palm, she pres...When breaking through the second layer, it was as smooth as water flowing naturally. Qin Sang had originally been proud of himself for being a cultivation genius, but now he couldn't help but doubt himself.
Even if one is not a genius, mediocrity is acceptable. One can't be an idiot, can they

He didn't know if this situation was normal, but after such a long time with no progress, his patience was slowly wearing away, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Without a master to guide him, Qin Sang could only figure things out on his own. He had broken through to the second layer so smoothly before, but now he was stuck at a bottleneck. Besides the technique itself, was there another reason for this
For example, a medicinal bath.
After Xueyi Building stabilized, Qin Sang found an opportunity to return to Sanwu City once, but he didn't see Daoist Jixin and Mingyue. It is said that soon after the temple fire, they gave the temple to the disaster victims and sailed south, leaving D Sui.
Calculating the time, it was precisely those days when Emperor Dongyang and King Zhen Shui raised their flags to rebel.
Unable to find Daoist Ji Xin, Qin Sang could only think of other ways. He also searched for some formulas for cultivating the foundation and enriching one's essence in Xue Yi Lou, but unfortunately, their effects were not as good as the medicinal baths.

The courtyard gate was suddenly knocked on.
The water monkey whispered outside, "Lord Master, General Zhou has arrived."
Qin Sang's face lit up, and she quickly got up to tidy her clothes, saying loudly: "Please come in!"
Soon, the Water Monkey led in a middle-aged man clad in armor. The man walked up to Qin Sang and bowed, "Zhou Mingguang greets Mr. Qin!"
On the surface, Qin Sang was Dongyang County Lord's advisor without an official position. People outside of Xieyilou all called Qin Sang "Master".
Qin Sang reached out and steadied Zhou Mingguang, taking a look at him and smiling. "General Zhou, we've known each other for a long time, there's no need for formalities. This time, General Zhou went out of his way to come to Hunwu County, Qin Sang has been apprehensive and worried, afraid that I might have delayed the major military operation of Commander-in-Chief."

Zhou Mingguang was General Mu's trusted confidant. He and Ning County fell two months ago, and Qin Sang had met him once.
General Mu broke the defenses of He and Ning counties without losing a single soldier, achieving great merit. With the recommendation of the county princess, he was promoted to the right commander of the brave camp. Zhou Mingguang's star rose steadily, becoming a guerrilla general and commanding the crossbowmen battalion.
Qin Sang was officially promoted to the position of head of the Blood Clothes Building, but the official document had not yet arrived.
The only thing that annoyed Qin Sang was that Wang Liu, the kid, had jeopardized military intelligence. Not only did he not face any punishment, but he also benefited greatly during the attack on Jiangzhou City. Now, he even became the right general of Xuanwei Camp.
"This subordinate dares not!"
Zhou Mingguang had personally witnessed the hellish scene in Chu Dahuang's mansion. He treated Qin Sang with utmost respect, "Mr. Qin, General Chu asked me to greet you. The general wanted to visit you in person, but unfortunately, urgent military matters forced him to lead his troops along the main road to Beipin Prefecture. However, all of the crossbowmen under the general's command have been brought here by me, a total of five hundred divine arm crossbows, ready to be deployed as Mr. Qin sees fit!"

"Great!"
Qin Sang clapped his hands in delight, his joy evident. He divided the military merit with General Mu, giving him the majority share. He had stayed in Hunwu County for so long precisely because of these crossbowmen.
His target, of course, was the Xianting Temple within Hunwu County!

After hearing from Yuanjue that there were remains of cultivators at Xuance Temple, Qin Sang began to think about how to get his hands on them.
His light gong was not as good as the top experts in the Jianghu, he couldn't sneak into Xuance Temple silently. Although Yuanjue's master had died, Xuance Temple still had congenital masters and countless first-rate masters guarding it.
He could certainly use Yan Wang's abilities to kill secretly, but Xuanji Temple was renowned as a sacred place, known throughout the Sui Dynasty. Once news spread that all the high monks of Xuanji Temple had perished, it would surely cause a huge uproar throughout the entire Sui Dynasty.
The Celestial Emperor of the Sui Dynasty was being watched over by immortals.
After much deliberation, I still believe that relying on worldly power is the most stable approach. Facing five hundred divine arm crossbows, even the Abbot of Xuance Temple wouldn't dare to act recklessly, unless he wanted his temple destroyed.
Hearing that Qin Sang's target was actually the Xuanji Temple, Zhou Mingguang wore a troubled expression and said: "Mr. Qin, I heard that there are experts at the innate level stationed in the Xuanji Temple. Five hundred crossbowmen are probably..."
"General Zhou, don't worry!"
Qin Sang said confidently, "If congenital masters dare to kill, I will take care of it. The only thing to worry about is that the monks of Xuanji Temple are arrogant and unruly, still loyal to the false emperor, and unwilling to accept the rule of the new king. That's why General Zhou needs to lead his troops to intimidate them. If they are sensible, confess and accept punishment, Your Highness doesn't want to exterminate them... I have already prepared wine and meat, please trouble General Zhou to take it back to reward the soldiers and generals. Set off early tomorrow morning so as not to delay the march. After the success, Qin Sang will surely show my gratitude."
"The last general obeys!"
The next morning, Qin Sang led the Xue Yi Lou troops and joined Zhou Guangming. After a hasty meal, they marched rapidly and by noon had set up camp at the gate of Xuanji Temple on Mount Xianshi.

Ancient temples are hidden deep in the mountains.
The mountain wind rustled the dense forest, making a whistling sound.
The mountain path was paved entirely with half-width bluestones, stretching from the foot of the mountain to the temple gate. Even five riders could ride abreast without difficulty.

Xiangji Temple.
Three vigorous characters exude an ancient and heavy aura.
Two stone lion sculptures at the mountain gate glared with fierce eyes, staring down whoever approached.
On the high steps, fallen leaves swirled, with no sign of a monk. Two doors, several meters tall, stood firmly shut, silent within.
Autumn wind howls.
Before the temple, there was a vast and flat area. Qin Sang, wearing the armor of an ordinary soldier, looked up at this holy land of martial arts. His gaze went beyond the high walls, seeing the flying eaves and cornices inside.
He could hear the tense breathing from within Xuanji Temple.
Leading the charge, Zhou Guangming waved his hand back. A series of footsteps followed as over a thousand soldiers spread out in formation. Five hundred crossbowmen nocked their arrows, aiming at the imperial palace gates.

Zhou Mingguang looked at Qin Sang, who slightly nodded his head.
"Change rockets!"
Zhou Mingguang roared, his voice falling just as suddenly, a deep Buddhist chant echoed from within Xuanji Temple.
"Wait!"

Then, hurried footsteps sounded from within the Xuanji Temple. The door swung open, and an old monk with rosy complexion and white eyebrows led the way out.
Behind him, a throng of monks filed out, their faces grim, holding staffs and pointing them at the soldiers ahead.
Seeing the monk's robes, Qin Sang secretly thought that this person should be Yuanzhen, the abbot of Xuanji Temple, and the junior brother of Yuanyue. He was one of the most respected figures in the martial arts world during the Sui Dynasty.
"Amitabha Buddha."
Master Yuanzhen's eyes were filled with sorrow as he swept his gaze over Zhou Mingguang and asked in a low voice, "This poor monk is Yuanzhen. May I ask, General, what is your name"
Zhou Mingguang said in a deep voice: "I am Zhou Mingguang, just an ordinary person. I serve as a general under Your Highness."
Yuan Zhen, the Abbot, nodded slightly, then his face suddenly darkened. He questioned Zhou General, "General Zhou, all within Xiangji Temple are monks who have renounced worldly attachments, living in peaceful contemplation with scriptures and Buddhas. They do not involve themselves with secular affairs. I fail to see what crime they could have committed that warrants your military might and invasion"
"Ancient Buddha with a Lamp"
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Zhou Mingguang, with a sneer on his face, burst into laughter. "The monks who helped the fake emperor defend Douling County slaughtered countless sons of Dongyang County. Could they be disciples from another family"
Master Yuanzhen's expression remained unchanged as he retorted, "General Zhou, you seem to be unaware that those monk-soldiers were merely studying at Xuanji Temple. After descending the mountain, they had no further connection with Xuanji Temple. I have already explained this matter to the prince in person. General, if you inquire, you will know."perceive the aura of the cold flame. However, just by looking at the momentum of its eruption, it is probably not inferior to the ancestral holy fire.This shows that Han Yan possesses at least the ast...
