he red cinnabar's demonic fire, he could be protected by the demonic fire's blessing and, before the demonic fire burned out, barely shield his physical body.However, due to the special nature of Chi...When she arrived at the North Sea, the Ghost Mother forcefully broke into Xuan Tian Gong, the most powerful force in the North Sea.
The traitor of Xuan Tian Palace took advantage of the chaos to steal sacred objects, forcing Tong Lingyu and others to flee everywhere.
Wouldn't the Ghost Mother come to Zhongzhou to cause such a ruckus
The Ganlu Chan Monastery has a Buddhist saint guarding it. Even if Yin Changsheng is powerful, he wouldn't be able to surpass a true Nascent Soul cultivator. According to previous information, the Ghost Mother's strength should not be enough to cause trouble in the Ganlu Chan Monastery.

Qin Sang put aside these thoughts and asked, "Has the Zen master ever seen this person's face"
Xiao Xing Chan Master didn't speak. He raised his right hand, and the wooden bracelet on his wrist flickered with a faint yellow light. A perfectly round copper mirror appeared in his palm.
Wooden bracelets should also be similar to the Qianjun ring, a kind of small treasure.
Qin Sang glanced at the wooden bracelet and looked at the bronze mirror.
Suddenly, the celestial master Xiao Xing reached out and pressed his hand on the bronze mirror. Instantly, threads of light emerged from its surface. When he released his hand, a figure appeared in the mirror, vanishing in a flash.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Rather than a human figure, it was more like a white silhouette.
Qin Sang looked at them for a moment, speechless.
The most important part of the face was completely unseen, like a ghost, blurry and indistinct. One couldn't make out the other person's features at all.
Could Ganyao Chan Temple really be looking for someone based on this information
Seeing Qin Sang's confusion, Xiao Xingchan master held up the bronze mirror again and repeated the image, reminding him: "Friend Daoist, pay attention to the body technique this person is using."
>
Qin Sang, hearing this, narrowed his eyes and looked closely.
Finally, I saw something unusual.
At the instant of disappearance, the figure's feet kicked three times in mid-air, seemingly following some sort of pattern.
Because it is a false image, you cannot perceive the fluctuations of emptiness. But if you carefully contemplate it, you will find that this step conceals a unique flavor, which is not simple at all.
“The Abbot suspected that this person was using the top-tier escapism technique, *Bu Tian Shu*, which has been lost for many years in Central Plains. This technique is extremely difficult to cultivate; during the foundation building period, a unique medicinal liquid must be prepared and used to soak the legs, which aids in cultivation. Those who cultivate this art should also have a considerable level of skill in physical training, possibly practicing techniques like *Jin Shen Jue*. Before mastering *Bu Tian Shu*, this person would already exhibit extraordinary abilities in escapism, leaving traces behind. Moreover, they would emit a distinct medicinal fragrance…”
Next, Master Xiaoxing demonstrated some of the characteristics of Bu Tian Shu to them.
Qin Sang admired the abbot of Ganlu Zen Temple greatly. Just with a vague influence, he was able to analyze so many clues.
Upon hearing this, Qin Sang felt that it was highly unlikely that the mother ghost.
He intentionally put on a thoughtful expression, pondered for a moment, and shook his head. "I've never met anyone like that before," he said. "Master, do you have any other information Perhaps we can start by figuring out their motives."
Xiao Xing Chan Master hesitated for a moment and said, "This person secretly infiltrated the Zen temple and was later spotted by a fellow disciple. However, this person's infiltration and escape techniques were excellent, leaving the disciple behind. This image was still obtained through the disciple's recollection. In addition, the disciple had another discovery, but only about 10% certainty, fearing it might lead to misinformation. At the moment of exposure, there seemed to be a flash of aura from a high-level spirit insect, perhaps even proficient in insect control."
Spirit worm!
Hearing these two words, Qin Sang's heartstrings immediately tensed.
When it comes to the art of controlling insects, no one surpasses the Ghost Mother in skill.
"Could it really be her I never thought anyone would dare to infiltrate the Glutinous Dew Chan Monastery. This style of acting is indeed very similar to the Ghost Mother's. Perhaps the Sky-Stepping Art is just a way to deceive others, and it would be difficult for others to impersonate her. The Ghost Mother might be able to do it…"
Qin Sang's thoughts flashed continuously.
However.
Mastery of magical arts, cultivation of physical prowess, and the rearing of spirit insects.
The more I listen, the more it sounds like something the real person would do.
Thinking to himself, Qin Sang kept a composed expression on his face. He wanted to ask about the losses suffered by the Ganlu Chan Monastery, but seeing that Master Xiaoxing remained silent and unwilling to reveal any information, he had to suppress his curiosity and promised, “This poor monk will contact Daoist Qin immediately and ask him to keep an eye out.”
Xiao Xing Chan master got up and chanted a Buddhist invocation, "Thank you both Daoist friends for your trouble. If you can catch the culprit, the Zen temple will surely show its gratitude! This poor monk still needs to consult other Daoist friends. I can't stay long, I'll come visit again later."
Qin Sang couldn't persuade him to stay and personally sent Xiaoxing Zen Master out of the mountain gate, promising to keep in touch.
Master Xiaoxing invited Qin Sang to visit his monastery, and Qin Sang readily agreed.
He would intervene in any case where there was even a slight chance that the person involved was a ghost mother, seizing every opportunity to act. Even if they weren't a ghost mother, he could use this as a chance to forge good relationships with the Ganlu Zen Monastery.
Xiao Xing Chan Master bid farewell, Lu Zhang stayed behind.
Qin Sang knew he still had something to say.
The two then saw off the Zen master as he left and returned to the main hall.
Facing Lu Zhang, Qin Sang didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "Has Ganlu Chan Institute suffered heavy losses"
It is worth pondering, if this person is a ghost mother, what was her purpose in infiltrating the Ganlu Chan Temple
Lu Zhang seemed to be deep in thought, taking a moment to react before shaking his head and saying, "The Ganlu Chan Monastery has sealed this matter very tightly, and I couldn't find any confirming information. I tried probing a few times, but Master Xiao Xing remained tight-lipped."
After a while, there will always be clues that emerge.
Here's the translation, remembering to only translate the text within the tags:***

Qin Sang no longer pursued the matter, and changed the subject, "Friend Daoist, are you close with Master Xiao Xing Chan"
"Are you asking about Mount Dào and Gǎnlù Chan Monastery"
Lu Zhang smiled, "The Buddhist and Taoist schools once had a dispute in the Central Plains, but today, the two schools are not so clearly separated. This is most evident in the Seven States of the West Road. Large and small sects have almost all shown traces of blending Buddhism and Taoism. In the Nineteen States of Smoke and Rain, the closer you get to the edge, the more mixed the traditions become, encompassing Buddhist, Devilish, Taoist, and even unorthodox practices. It's impossible to distinguish them anymore. The Noting Mountain sect also has many disciples who practice both Buddhist and Taoist techniques, with considerable success. In the future, Daoist friends might as well give it a try, learning from one another. The Eight Views have the qualifications to confront the甘露禪院 head-on, vying for the title of the supreme celestial path. Naturally, we should stand on both sides and benefit from all. As for the dispute over orthodoxy, no one has mentioned it in a long time."
Lu Zhang's words matched the various scenes Qin Sang had observed.
Upon learning that both Buddhism and Taoism were flourishing in Central Plains, Qin Sang initially thought there would be a significant division.

Later it was discovered that he was very different from what he had imagined.
Apart from the cruel and ruthless Demon Gate that hides in the Northern Wilderness, there are no clear boundaries between the various lineages in Zhongzhou. They intertwine and blend seamlessly, with only struggles for interest separating them.
If even Lian Jingyi is no longer being studied, how can we talk about a line of succession
In the long run, perhaps we will truly merge.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Of course, this is related to the stability of the central plains. Once there's chaos, no one can guarantee what will happen. Like-minded individuals are natural allies.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As long as the will of a cultivator who has achieved Nascent Soul stage remains, the Central Plains will remain in chaos.
At this moment, Lu Zhang suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Master Daoist, when did you leave the East China Sea to travel in Central Plains"
Qin Sang was slightly startled, hearing the oddity in his words, and pondered: "Counting it up, it has been almost a hundred years. However, when I was in the East China Sea, I was just like now, often retreating behind closed doors and rarely going out. My Qingyang Island is located east of Beihuang, a rather remote place with poor communication. Could Daoist Lu have heard some rumors"
Over the past fifty years, Qin Sang has rarely left Pushan.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Lu Zhang nodded. "I remembered something, it should have been less than two hundred years ago, a rumor appeared that someone saw someone who looked like the Holy One of Enlightenment in the outer sea. Shortly after, a huge storm suddenly occurred in the deep sea, with lightning and thunder like rain, presenting an apocalyptic scene even more terrifying than a hurricane, heading in the direction where the Holy One of Enlightenment was said to be going. At the time, the rumors were very vague, unknown origin, with several versions claiming that the Holy One of Enlightenment was accompanied by someone else, or even more..."
After a pause, Lu Zhang continued, "The rumors at the time didn't cause much of a stir. No one believed that a revered saint would be defeated by mere wind and thunder. It was thought to be a good-hearted person spreading rumors to amuse others. No one paid attention, and it only circulated within the East China Sea for a while before disappearing. I happened to hear about it. After Master Xiao Xing Zen came to me, I suddenly remembered that rumor and investigated it specifically. Based on the various actions of the Ganlu Zen Temple, I suspect that the place the person infiltrated was most likely the forbidden area of the Ganlu Zen Temple - Xiaofangcun Mountain!"
Before Qin Sang could respond, Lu Zhang said in a low voice, "The meditation hall where the Sage of Wisdom, Huiguang, is in retreat is right here on this mountain!"
"Hiss..."
Qin Sang realized what Lü Zhang truly meant.
"The one who walked with the Holy Light, could it be..."
Lu Zhang remained noncommittal, simply saying: "Coincidentally, after that, the Holy Light and Zhenjun Danwu have never shown themselves outside again, both retreating to seclusion."
“Hundreds of years ago, hundreds of years ago…”
Qin Sang got up and paced back and forth.
>
Lu Zhang thought Qin Sang was pondering how much of an impact the disappearance of the two Nascent Soul cultivators would have on the cultivation world.
In fact, Qin Sang was thinking of something else.
What attracted the Holy Light Master and General Tanba to rush to the outer sea
The celestial palaces of Tiān Tóng, Tiān Xiāng, Qī Shā, and Zǐ Wēi were linked together by fragments of the Earthly Slayer's sword.
To those unaware of the truth, it seemed that Ye Laomo and Qingjun simply vanished into thin air after following Ziwu Palace in their ascension.
Qin Sang continued to inquire, but because a long time had passed, Lu Zhang didn't believe him at first and dismissed it with a smile. He hadn't conducted a thorough investigation and couldn't give a precise time or location.
Seeing Qin Sang lost in thought, Lu Zhang stood up and said in a strange tone, "Just wait and see. When will Ganlu Chan Temple be able to catch the culprit Otherwise, the credibility of this rumor will greatly increase, and it's definitely not just me who remembers it. Unless Holy Light or Zhenjun Danwu personally comes forward and breaks the rumor, otherwise, the Central Plains will be in great trouble!"
With a light sigh, Lu Zhang turned and walked outside.
Qin Sang came to her senses and hurriedly sent him out of the mountain.
After returning, Qin Sang sat in the main hall, pondering for a long time before returning to the Qingxu Fantasy Realm.
From then on, Qin Sang's avatar no longer stayed in the cave dwelling all the time. He frequently went out, sometimes disguising himself as various individuals, and sometimes openly visiting Xiao Xing Zen Master to inquire about the movements of Ganlu Zen Temple.
The purpose of helping find people at Ganlu Chan Institute is not something to be revealed to outsiders.
His strength alone is ultimately limited.
It's unclear whether it's because Ganlu Chanlin has always had little harvest, or because the blockade is too strict. Qin Sang hasn't received any useful information. He didn't even find out about the mysterious person's plan to infiltrate Ganlu Chanlin.
During this period, Qin Sang traveled to many places in Zhongzhou, especially the Six States of Jiangzuo. He witnessed the true celestial aura and understood why the immortal way in Zhongzhou was so prosperous.
In Zhongzhou, the spiritual veins are also known as dragon veins.
Dragons walk through the Central Plains, and the Six States of Jiangzuo are where ten thousand dragons gather.
But prosperity hides hidden dangers.
Lu Zhang's previous worries came true.
The activity at Ganlu Chan Monastery attracted the attention of those interested. Old rumors were quickly unearthed. After all, for high-ranking cultivators, a hundred years wasn't a particularly long time ago.
The rumors spread with astonishing speed, gaining a momentum that seemed to threaten to overwhelm all other concerns.
For a while.
The whole world is paying attention to the movements of the two major sects.
What's intriguing is that throughout the entire story, Baguayan remained silent.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Ganseiji Temple seems to have realized that it had unwittingly caused a big stir, and the pursuit of the mysterious person became more cautious.
Rumors spread like wildfire, but neither Danha True Lord nor the Holy One HuiGuang have appeared. Both major sects remain silent on the matter.
To outsiders, it is undoubtedly taken for granted.
For many years, the situation in the Central Plains has been stable, and there is no sign of chaos at present.
But even the old monsters, including Qin Sang, could see that without a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage presiding over it, it lost its greatest deterrent to those with ill intentions. Sooner or later, someone would be restless and take action.

Qin Sang strictly ordered the disciples of the Xie family and Loutai Guan to not leave Fudo County. He himself also became more cautious in his actions outside.
Due to this incident, it's even harder to find out what's happening at Ganlu Chan Monastery.
Qin Sang searched painstakingly.
It wasn't until years later that word reached them of several holy monks from Gānlù Chan Monastery having journeyed to the Western Desert.
By the time he received the news, the holy monks had already returned, and it was unclear whether the Venerable Huiguang was among them. From then on, Ganlu Zen Temple ceased its search and closed its doors to the public.
Here's the translated text, keeping the HTML tags as they are:

Qin Sang could only hope that the Ghost Mother hadn't been killed by the Ganlu Chan Monastery.
In the blink of an eye.
Li Xiao, the Zen master, visited Pushan again after more than twenty years.
This deity remains focused on their cultivation without distraction.
After failing to find the person, he also returned to the mountains for quiet contemplation.
Fujiang.
A treasure ship sailed out of the harbor.
Upon entering the East China Sea from the placid river, one is immediately met with waves crashing against the shore.
At that moment, a dense array of runes lit up on the bottom of the ship. A bluish light enveloped the entire hull, and the wooden body instantly turned a vibrant green, as if reborn.
This layer of light is not only beautiful, but it also has defensive capabilities.
The impact of the waves was absorbed by the azure light, and the hull shuddered slightly before returning to its calm state. There was no sense of turbulence at all.
"Well, the formation was engraved on the hull. The hull wasn't made of spiritwood but coated with a special paint that could absorb true essence and be maintained with spirit stones. It's similar to the North Sea vessels, isn't it..."
In the upper-class cabin, one person leaned against the window, gazing out at the distant sea, yet was aware of every change happening beneath the ship.
This man carried a feathered fan and a silk scarf, dressed in the garb of a scholar. He looked every bit the elegant young gentleman.
It was Qin Sang's outer avatar.
Unable to find the Ghost Mother, Qin Sang could only focus his energy on something else.
This trip out to sea is to find the source of the rumors and see if we can find anything.
This ship belonged to a certain merchant guild. With its array of runes fully activated, it could withstand the impact of sea storms. There were also cultivators on board to protect and escort the ship.
The quality is not top-notch, inferior to Liuzhutang, but it excels in its long voyages, reaching directly to the edge of the inland sea.
As they entered the East Sea.
Treasure ships sailed towards them.
Qin Sang didn't need to deliberately sense it; he could feel that almost every ship had cultivators.
"Has it always been this way, or have even those outside the Central Plains seen an opportunity and gathered here"
Qin Sang muttered to herself.lated!Then a roar of anger was heard from ahead.Qin Sang narrowed his eyes and saw that the wind was howling and the waves were crashing. A black-robed figure holding a strange flag emerged from the w...
