Chapter 1588: The Gu Jing
the bait will survive.That day, Chun Tao's last smile repeatedly appeared in Qin Sang's mind, causing him to sigh inwardly. The cruelty of this world was more naked than in his previous life.Having b...Su Zinan returned to the chain of Chi Nan Islands, and that night he took people away, whereabouts unknown.
Two openings of the Unassuming Hall, like two comical dramas.
First, there was the Ba Jing Guan and Gan Lu Zen Temple, and then Su Zi Nan. They all suffered losses in the Wu Wang Hall but couldn't even break through the outer chaotic currents.
However, what everyone is most concerned about now is not Wujing Hall.
The disciples of the three gods defied danger and stormed the Wumang Hall. Coupled with the final conversation between Su Zinan and He Gao Zhenren, this added fuel to the fire of rumors that were already rampant.
Whether Su Zijian came to look for someone, Qin Sang didn't know, but felt that his words and deeds had a sense of wanting the world to be in chaos.
Perhaps both can coexist.
After the storm subsided, Qin Sang didn't stay on the Red Nan Islands chain for too long. He set off back home and returned to the Central Plains.
On board.
Qin Sang used a prohibition to seal the cabin and took out the relics of the disciple of the strange-faced man.
When apprehending the disciple with the monstrous face, I slipped up and am unsure if any clues can be found here.

Besides the mustard bag, Qin Sang also snatched his spirit beast pouch.
Qin Sang opened the mustard seed pouch without much hope. The first thing that caught his eye were jade bottles of various colors, similar to those used by the disciples he had seen before to hold all sorts of deadly poisons.

The two Southern Barbarian states are plagued with poison miasma everywhere, so gathering these toxins would be no difficult task.
On its own, it has little effect on Yuanying cultivators. Only when used in conjunction with secret arts, like the strange-faced disciple, can it pose a threat.

It's a pity that he met Qin Sang. The fat silkworm had a full meal and was now sleeping soundly.
Qin Sang didn't know much about poison. He picked out these jade bottles and put them aside for now. The rest were some poisonous pills. Using his divine sense, he lifted the restriction of the spirit beast bag. Inside was a dazzling array of venomous insects.
The sheer number is astounding.
Unlike the Five-Colored Poison Spider and the Venomous Scorpion, which are mostly naturally born venomous creatures, there are a few that Qin Sang couldn't quite gauge. Their realms were concentrated around the second and third transformations.
Among them, the strange insects are just a small number.
However, cultivating so many high-level spirit worms is not an easy task.
Qin Sang opened a bug jar.
There is no need to trouble the fat silkworm. Protect your true essence, fill your palms, and grab out the venomous insects inside.
This is a colored moth, its wings are colorful and its body is grayish. Some similarities can be found with the three poisonous moths in Qin Sang's memory, with all three characteristics concentrated on this colored moth.
That's why Qin Sang couldn't figure out the species of this colored moth.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"All three features are very obvious, it's impossible to be a coincidence, is this the silkworm that was just started to breed"
Qin Sang pondered, his previous judgment that the Five-Colored Poisonous Spider was likely cultivated using Gu techniques was now largely confirmed by seeing these Gu worms.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However, the five-colored poison spider is already formed, there's no way to tell how many venomous insects were fused into it, and this moth has only just begun.
"Interesting, using the method of raising insects to fuse various venomous insect characteristics and enhance strength. I wonder if it could be replicated on other spiritual insects..."
Qin Sang continued to rummage through the mustard seed pouch.
With a rustle, dozens of jade slips appeared on the table. Qin Sang carefully examined each one.
The master and disciple of the Strange-Faced Man were most skilled in the wood spirit arts, but Qin Sang couldn't find any content related to their fundamental Dao. There were only a few methods for refining artifacts of the wood path, which were not important.
It makes sense, after all. A person with a strange face could put restrictions on a disciple's nascent soul, certainly preventing them from carrying important items on their person.

"Huh"
As his divine sense swept over a jade slip, Qin Sang's attention was caught. He took it in his hand and examined it closely.
Here's the translation:

“The Gu Jing, it’s actually the inheritance of Mount Wan Du!”
Wàn Dù Shān is a super sect in the Man State, equal to the Tai Yue Men of Nan Zhou. As its name suggests, the cultivators of Wàn Dù Shān are skilled in the art of using poison, enjoying a unique advantage in the Man State.
Since the region of Yin Man is rarely visited by humans, spiritual insects are common there. Some cultivators from Mount Wan Du also raise spiritual insects and are skilled in controlling them.
Qin Sang had previously suspected that the master and apprentice of the strange-faced man might be from Mount Wàn Dú, but Mount Wàn Dú was not famous for masters skilled in the art of wood manipulation. He dared not make a definitive statement.
After reading the Gu Jing, Qin Sang was somewhat disappointed. It turned out that the jade slip only contained half of the secret art, but the content of the secret art gave him great inspiration.
The *Gu Jing* mainly discusses how to cultivate highly venomous insects, but there is also a portion that is suitable for other spiritual insects.
This breeding method is similar to the Gu raising technique Qin Sang had heard of before. The difference lies in that, unlike the Gu raising technique, 《蠱經》 not only allows spiritual insects to devour each other but also uses special elixirs as assistance.
The biggest hidden danger of Gu cultivation is that the cultivated Gu worms become ferocious in temperament, and their intelligence is also affected.
According to the steps in , the risk can be minimized, but the premise is that sufficient preparation is made and things are done step by step. One should not be impatient or seek quick results.
When used correctly, it can even induce the insect to change in the direction desired by its master.
This is a placeholder for text that would normally be enclosed in the
tag.
Of course, one could also disregard the risks and use the art of raising venomous insects to quickly select the most ferocious one among them, obtaining a powerful aid. The disciples of the Monster Face Sect are exactly using this method.

The armor of the strange-faced man's jade beetle should also have been borrowed from, but it has gone beyond the scope of the first half of "Classic of Gu".
Qin Sang has immersed himself in the way of raising insects for many years, receiving the inheritance from both human shamans and insect tribes. Based on his experience, he judges that the methods in the Gu Jing are feasible.
However, only the Fire Jade Centipede is suitable.
The silkworm and the celestial butterfly are too important; Qin Sang cannot accept any loss.
When cultivating Gu worms, they need to consume spiritual insects with similar attributes. Qin Sang couldn't figure out how to classify Tianmu Butterfly for a moment. What if he guided it in the wrong direction and lost his ability to control the Sky Thunder That would be truly heartbreaking.
Fire agate centipede is simpler.
Its treasure-hunting ability is based on its acute sensitivity to fire artifacts.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Collect fire-type spirit insects and feed them to the Fire Jade Centipede. Only use insect cultivation techniques to help it break through its fourth transformation. The influence should be controllable.
Qin Sang looked at the insect jar on the table, first pondering over the "Gu Jing". He would experiment with them, if the fire jade centipede still couldn't molt after a long time, he would consider using this method.
Upon returning to Zhuzhou, Qin Sang immediately sent all the venomous insects to Loutai Guan and entrusted them to Zhou Ruan's couple. He also gave them a large sum of spirit stones and instructed them on how to cultivate gu worms.
Zhou and his wife could not refuse Qin Sang's order, and since they could obtain a secret technique, they were naturally very willing.
Qin Sang then returned to Yan Shui Ruins and entrusted Liuzhou Hall with gathering the fire-walking spirit insects of the Three Transformations, as well as various spirit herbs needed for refining auxiliary pills.
There are many cultivators who are skilled in alchemy in Zhongzhou, so finding an alchemist is not difficult.
Next, Qin Sang's main body and avatar will still focus their efforts on cultivation, hoping to master the secret art as soon as possible.
Unknowingly, another twenty years have passed.
The Flying Cloud Bridge.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
At midnight, Feiyun Ferry was brightly lit.
Above the lake, there is a sleepless city, towering thousands of feet.
The magnificent fairy city, at night, displays its grand engineering.
Moonlight bathes everything in a silvery glow, and mist rises from the lake's surface, swirling gently like a veil of mystery over the fairy city. Legend has it that this is where immortals make their home.
The White Jade Bridge spans north to south and east to west, with countless paths crisscrossing. At night, the pearls illuminating the bridge shimmer brightly, reflecting the light of the full moon in the sky.
The Yuqiao Bridge was built from top-grade jade, flawless and woven into a net. It resembled countless white dragons stretching to the peaks on both sides of Feiyunduo Wharf, collectively supporting the vast Immortal City.
On the Yuqiao Bridge, qinglou jade houses are layered upon one another. The balustrades and jade walls shimmer brightly, like stars inlaid in the sky, dazzling and captivating the imagination.
Below, the two rivers converge, their waters surging. The turbulent currents reflect another underwater fairy city.
Boats line the river, countless pleasure boats like those sailing through empty space, entering a fairyland.
This attracted the passengers on board to rush out of their cabins to gaze up at the celestial city in the sky, filled with both envy and anticipation.
Although it was late at night, the fairy city was bustling with people.
Whether cultivator or commoner, merchant or laborer, all are treated equally in the Immortal City. They all walk across Jade Bridge, which can be done on foot or by renting a mount or beast carriage at the relay station.
Mythical beasts come in all shapes and sizes, with dragons, phoenixes, and qilin appearing everywhere. Of course, these are just superficial similarities, wishful thinking, it's impossible for there to be true divine beast bloodlines.
Even cultivators like to be auspicious.
The immortal city is divided into twenty-two domains according to the celestial stems and earthly branches, with the celestial stem domains being the most superior. Mortals mostly inhabit the earthly branch domains.
The spirit beasts and beast chariots dashed across the center of the bridge.
Zhou Jin rode a spirit beast said to be a dragon horse, heading towards the Xiancheng Dingziyu at a leisurely pace. Suddenly, he heard a commotion and turned his gaze toward the bridge below. He saw a fiery blaze rising straight up, which turned out to be a fire phoenix-like spirit beast.
'Huo Feng' disregarded the rules of the Immortal City, soaring above the water. Its fiery wings beat violently, suddenly lifting it into the air, scattering sparks like rain.
Amidst countless amazed gazes, the Fire Phoenix soared straight up, finally landing before a jade pavilion in the Dingzi domain. It prostrated itself on the ground and walked down a Taoist priest.
Someone was already waiting there, taking away the fire phoenix. The Daoist then stepped into the jade pavilion.
"A true man should be like this!"
Zhou Jin muttered to herself, her face full of envy.
This 'Fire Phoenix' is one of the highest-ranked mounts in Xian City, truly dazzling.
Of course, he could bite the bullet and afford it.
Ke Xian City was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. As a mere Golden Core cultivator, he didn't dare to be ostentatious here. Not long after arriving in the city, he encountered several Golden Core cultivators with higher cultivation levels than him, all riding in solemn beast carriages.
As for the nascent soul, unless one were to make no pretense, even upon meeting, they would not recognize a superior being.
"Someday, I hope to attain the cultivation level of those who came before Qin and experience it all once more."
Zhou Jin set a goal for herself, her legs clamped tightly. The dragon horse was intelligent and quick to understand. It raised its head and let out a long neigh, then galloped forward wildly.

After a swift dash, Zhou Jin entered the Dingzi Realm and realized there was another world within.
What you see outside is only half of the Dingzi domain. The other half is concealed by a great formation, making it quite secluded.
Zhou Jin conscientiously kept his promise and rode his horse to a quiet courtyard. As soon as he stopped, the gate opened from inside, and a young man walked out.
Upon seeing Zhou Jin, the young man revealed his joy at meeting an old acquaintance, bowing respectfully: "Greetings to Master Zhou."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The young man is the rising star of the Xie family.
Five years ago, Jiang Mu was transferred from Yanshui Ruins to Feiyunduo by Liuzhou Tang.
>
Most auctions and e-treasure fairs are held at Feiyundao. Following Jiang Mu's suggestion, Qin Sang also came along and rented a cave dwelling in the Jiazi area.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And then Xie Jia's people set up a base at Feiyundao to listen in.
Having handed over Ryuuma to Xie Liu, Zhou Jin strode into the courtyard and whispered, "Go quickly and send a message. I have something important to discuss."
Xie Liu's expression tightened, he didn't dare ask more, and hurriedly entered the secret room, activating the secret room's restrictions.
He knew the restriction here could be used for communication, but he didn't know who it was communicating with. After finishing, Xie Liu settled Zhou Jin and then diligently guarded his post and went into cultivation.
The dwelling of the Jia character domain.

Qin Sang awoke and vanished in a flash.
Suddenly, a figure appeared before Zhou Jin. He hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Senior Qin."
"Please sit down. What can I do for you"
Here is the translated text, retaining all HTML tags:

Qin Sang sat down and asked.
Zhou Jin did not dare to sit down, he opened the spirit beast pouch at his waist and took out a worm canister, "The junior obeys your order and used secret arts to cultivate this蠱蟲. Before, it could be controlled, but recently, when preparing to let it devour poisonous worms to break through, something abnormal appeared. If forced to upgrade, it might lose control. The junior does not dare to decide on his own..."
Qin Sang took the insect canister, opening it to reveal a vibrantly colored poisonous moth.
It was that very poisonous moth with the three combined characteristics that he made a plan, ordering Mr. and Mrs. Zhou to continue cultivating it. Now it has completely changed its appearance.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang picked up the poison moth, carefully sensing it.
In just twenty years, the Poison Moth rose from its early third transformation to the cusp of breaking through to the late stage of the third transformation. Its speed was remarkable, but the price it paid was equally significant.
regardless of the wealth of resources he provides.
This venomous moth's temperament had become extremely ferocious, even Yuan Ying cultivator Qin Sang couldn't completely subdue it.
This is the consequence of being too eager for quick results.
When Qin Sang gave it to Zhou Jin, he had a premonition that he needed this counterexample to judge the severity of the threat.
This is just a text example.
"Well done."
Hearing Qin Sang's approval, Zhou Jin's anxiety finally subsided.
Qin Sang entered the quiet chamber and, using prohibitions, set up a sealed area. He placed three venomous insects inside and took out a pill, crushing it into powder and sprinkling it in. He then requested Zhou Jin to bring some pills and two venomous insects for disposal from Qin Sang.
Besides the poisonous moth, there is also a centipede and an ant.
After inhaling the powdered elixir, the three venomous insects exhibited varying degrees of frenzy. The toxic moth was the most severely affected, falling into a complete rage. Its wings flapped violently, spewing a cloud of poison that enveloped its two opponents.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The opponent is equally unwilling to yield.
Then a bloody battle ensued, and in the end, the centipede and the ant were defeated. Their bodies were devoured by the poisonous moth.
Qin Sang watched coldly from the sidelines, occasionally throwing in various pills.
'Clack...clack...'
In the silent room, a chilling sound of chewing filled the air.
After devouring the enemy's corpses, the Poisonous Moth fell silent for a moment, then its breath suddenly surged, breaking through to the later stage of the third transformation in one fell swoop. However, it also became more violent at the same time.
'Bang bang bang...'
The moth was trapped in a sphere of light, as if tireless, frantically crashing against the luminous wall.
Qin Sang's fingers danced, hammering restrictions into the orb, forcefully imprisoning the poisonous moth. Only then did it subside. After a careful examination, Qin Sang obtained the desired information and had a greater grasp of this secret art.
The fat silkworm lay on Qin Sang's shoulder, greedily eyeing the poisonous moth. It had been itching to do so for a long time, and once Qin Sang gave his approval, it swallowed it in one gulp.
Qin Sang looked at the fat silkworm with a suspicious expression.
This guy just swallowed the centipede whole. What's the difference between this and raising centipedes Won't there be any problems in the future
This is already the third grub. If it can bring a noticeable improvement to the fat silkworm, then consider using this method to cultivate its food. Otherwise, with such a large consumption, Qin Sang would also find it difficult to bear.
Back in the Jiazi domain, Qin Sang contacted Jiang Mu and bought the last things needed, preparing to help Huo Yu Weng transform.
Friends and colleagues were gradually coming to me, hugging me. It was indeed unavoidable. I knew it would be a matter of time.
I'm really overwhelmed and exhausted right now. I can only say that I'll try my best to update as much as possible during this time. There's a chance I might have to take a break, but I hope things will get back on track soon.n if he miraculously came across one, he wouldn't be able to afford it or grab it.And his own path of cultivation was also delayed.The final outcome is not hard to imagine.
