Chapter 138: Lightning Strikes the Spirit Wood
formation.After looking for a long time, he still couldn't find the location of the eye of the formation. The protective mountain array of Qingyang Demon Sect was created by a Yuan Ying cultivator an...After bidding farewell to Gong Shixiong, Qin Sang came to the Spirit Beast Hall. The Spirit Beast Hall housed many domesticated demonic beasts, each with its own unique abilities. They were excellent tools for cultivators, capable of easily resolving numerous issues.
Qin Sang had just descended from the escaping light when a Qi Refining disciple greeted him, "Disciple greets his senior uncle."
Qin Sang nodded, handing him her waist token and explaining her intentions.
Then the disciple, holding out both hands, returned the waist card and said, “I wonder where Master Qin plans to open his cave abode, on land or in the vast Yuncang Marsh”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Qin Sang understood that different monsters adapted to different environments, so he said, "In the Yuncang Marsh."
That disciple nodded and said, "If it's the Yuncang Great Marsh, it's best to use either a Spirit-Embracing Bird or a Golden-Eyed Serpent. Both are very sensitive to spiritual energy changes. The Golden-Eyed Serpent is the easiest to find underwater spiritual veins, but the Golden-Eyed Serpent needs to dive underwater. However, if one doesn't master the Water Escape technique, and their strength is only slightly stronger than ordinary beasts, they might encounter unforeseen dangers. When going underwater, please be extra careful, Master Uncle."
Taming demonic beasts requires a considerable amount of manpower and resources. Each spirit beast is incredibly valuable. Qin Sang readily agreed, following the disciple away from Baotasheng Peak to the mountain where spirit beasts were kept, taking with him a Spirit Bird and a Golden-Eyed Serpent.

Although the Jade Box has a seal that suppresses spiritual energy, now that several years have passed since the Nine Illusion Heavenly Orchid was plucked, the orchid has begun to show signs of withering.
To replant it, you must let it absorb enough spiritual energy so that it can revive.
This process is very long, taking at least a year even in the Spirit Spring. Even the best spirit eyes are not enough, they can only slow down its rate of withering.
Once vitality is extinguished, there's no coming back. If the Nine Illusion Heavenly Orchid's medicinal properties are insufficient, it's certain that you won't be able to cultivate the Due Eridan. What a pity that would be.
Although the white cat's lair was secluded enough, it was still known to both the white cat and the bamboo demon. Qin Sang wasn't comfortable leaving Jiuhuan Tianlan alone inside, but unfortunately, the spirit spring hadn't formed yet, making it impossible to move.
Qin Sang was preparing to borrow two spirit beasts first to find a cave dwelling. If he could find another spiritual spring, that would be best. If not, he could only temporarily plant it in the white cat's cave dwelling.
After taking the spiritual beast, Qin Sang slowly flew towards Jianmen Pass. On the way, he reminisced and thought there shouldn't be anything he had missed.
After returning to his cave abode, Qin Sang immediately prepared to enter seclusion for intense cultivation. The difficulty of the cultivation was immense, and it wouldn't be achieved in just a year or two. It might take a very long time before he could care about anything else.
He left his address at Yu Zhangmen's, which is Gulou Guan. He just needs to go and have a look when he has free time to see if there is anything important.
As Qin Sang passed by Jianmen Pass, he saw peach trees covering the mountain and couldn't help but sigh. He wondered about his own fate and if he could ever follow in the footsteps of Qingzhu, his predecessor.
After flying out of Jianmen Pass, Qin Sang urged his Flying Heaven Shuttle to arrive at the Wuyuefang Market. To avoid trouble, he used the Dunling Jue to conceal his cultivation and found the refining shop from before.
The shopkeeper recognized Qin Sang at once and warmly presented him with tea, "Friend Qin, please, have some."
Qin Sang sipped his tea and glanced at the Li residence across from him. Since Song Ying was willing to give up her ancestral home, he wouldn't meddle. This time, he came to ask the shopkeeper to repair the Five Elements Breaking Sword.
"Master Wu, can this sword be repaired"
Qin Sang took out Gu Tiannan's Five Elements Breaking Sword. One of the swords was damaged during the clash with the Ebony Sword, resulting in cracks all over its body, making it unusable.
>
The greatest difficulty with this Five Elements Breaking Sword spell is gathering five compatible elemental swords. As long as the swords are in hand, cultivation only requires some time and effort.
Qin Sang was just thinking about cultivating a few spells as means of defense after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, and since he had these five swords, he might as well buy the jade slips when making his choice.
Even if it cannot be repaired, finding another one is not difficult.
When Qin Sang probed the spirit pouch with his divine sense and took out the spiritual sword, he suddenly paused, his expression flickered, then returned to normal as he handed the sword to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took it, glanced at it, and smiled, "It's really good quality. It seems that Qin Daoist has put a lot of effort into this. Let me see... Hmm! The origin of the spirit sword hasn't been damaged. It just needs to be re-refined once, which should take about two hours to restore the spirit sword to its original state. Please wait here for a bit, Qin Daoist."
It seems I found the right person.
Qin Sang nodded, signaling to the shopkeeper to do as they pleased.
After the shopkeeper entered the back room, Qin Sang closed the shop door and took out an object from his pouch. He placed it in his palm—a withered tree root.
>
This section of the tree root, like the Five Elements Breaking Sword, was scavenged from Gu Tiannan. He still remembers when Gu Tiannan fought Hei Wa, he used this section of the tree root to release a bolt of lightning that shattered half of Hei Wa's ox skull, scaring the ox skull so much that it didn't dare come out. Its power was very impressive and may even have the ability to restrain monsters.
Later, when Qin Sang trapped Gu Tiannan with the Ten Directions King Hell Formation, he did not use this item again.
After Qin Sang received the tree root, he also examined it carefully. He didn't sense any power of thunder within it; it was just an ordinary tree root. Thinking it was a one-time use item, he casually threw it aside.
When Qin Sang drew out the Five Elements Breaking Sword, he discovered that the roots had quietly changed.
The tree root lay in his palm, looking unremarkable. But when Qin Sang touched it with his divine sense or spiritual power, a spark of electricity instantly shot out. The spark was thin and wispy, but its power was extremely violent, not to be underestimated.
Could it be a lightning strike on a spirit wood
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang stroked his chin and murmured, a look of delight on his face.
There is a mystical tree that grows in the Thunder Lake, bathed in lightning year after year, it remains immortal. Over time, the tree will eventually fuse with the power of thunder, becoming a Thunderwood Spirit.
Lightning strikes the spiritual wood, imbuing it with the yang energy and powerful force of thunder. It is not only a bane to demons and evil spirits but also a rare and precious material. For Qin Sang, it has an even more suitable purpose.
Qin Sang's door, which could still help him win against his opponents in the Qi Refining period, proved somewhat weak when facing cultivators of the Foundation Establishment period. After all, it was a complex spell that took years to cultivate, and it would be a pity not to use it.

Fortunately, the power of is not impossible to enhance. If you can find a spirit imbued with inner thunder force, you can borrow the spirit to release even more terrifying dark thunder, and striking thunderwood is the most suitable choice.
Thinking of this, Qin Sang immediately grasped the tree root and tried to activate the Gui Shui Yin Lei Curse.
The next moment, a flash of electricity passed through Qin Sang's palm, which he then dispelled willingly.
This bolt of lightning was no longer a simple yin thunder; its power surpassed all previous ones, even causing Qin Sang to feel apprehensive. The combination of spells and spiritual objects was definitely more than just double the power.
>Looking at the roots again, they returned to their usual state. The newly restored power of thunder had been completely exhausted.!The little bird was entirely crimson, its feathers seeming to burn with flames. However, it wasn't due to its original spiritual material; its aura was strikingly similar to that of the Southern Ming...
