Chapter 755: The如意 Abacus
nslate!"Master Dao, are you unharmed If you require any assistance, please do not hesitate to speak."Ma Yu was concerned and asked.Qin Sang had only been here for less than a year, but they got along...But to try to kill him with poison is pure fantasy.
The fat silkworm shivered inside the Golden Glow Armor, diligently fulfilling its duty to protect Qin Sang. The poisonous mist that entered Qin Sang's wound was blocked by the Poison-Repelling Armor.
However, these are things Cui Ji can't see.
Qin Sang covered his wound with one hand, rolled over and got up, at the same time retracting the miserable Flying Heavenly Asura.
The Sky Demon lay on the ground, motionless. Its transparent holes were visible all over its body. Qin Sang didn't have time to check its condition at the moment; he would just put it away for now.
Purple Cloud arrived again.
Qin Sang tightly pressed his wound, only able to urge the Wumu sword to barely defend himself. He looked utterly devoid of fighting spirit, exhausted and disheveled.
The ebony sword was slightly inferior to the Ziyou Pearl, and Qin Sang fought with great difficulty, struggling on both sides.
The wound on his shoulder was bleeding, staining his whole body red.
The sword qi remained in the wound, wreaking havoc within his body. Qin Sang could only mobilize his true essence to suppress it, but it was difficult to expel it in a short time.
Cui Ji was very careful, keeping a safe distance from Qin Sang and never revealing his Gu Lian or Zi You Zhu. He also refrained from using his flying knives easily, intending to outlast Qin Sang.
If the Bloodstained Divine Light could destroy the Bone Lotus, the situation would immediately turn around.
But looking at Cui Ji's actions, Qin Sang knew there was no chance if this continued. His condition was also getting worse and he was preparing to retreat, luring the enemy deeper.
At that very moment, Qin Sang and Cui Ji both felt a pang of foreboding and looked in the same direction.
The next moment, the earth trembled violently.
Suddenly, a deafening roar shook the heavens.
The crazed purple star falcon let out a terrified shriek, and a large flock of purple star falcons scattered everywhere.

At that moment, Qin Sang finally saw a blue light pillar shooting up from afar, dispersing the nearby poisonous mist. When the light pillar disappeared, the purple mist slowly gathered again.
"What exploded"

Qin Sang's heart was pounding. The explosion must have happened near the stone temple.
Just look at this astonishing momentum, the power must be incredibly terrifying.
Out of the eight of them, none could do it.

What on earth happened
Qin Sang was uneasy and glanced at Cui Ji. He saw that Cui Ji's brow was slightly furrowed, with some worry in his eyes.

His expression seemed to suggest he knew something.
Qin Sang instantly made many guesses. The transfer of Gu Lian, Cui Ji disregarding everything to assassinate, and the explosion this time and Cui Ji's expression, made him realize that there was likely something else going on this trip.
It's not just about getting treasures for the business alliance!
An unexpected situation occurred ahead.
This time being surrounded and attacked by beasts might not be a natural disaster!
The Purple Star Condor and the subterranean beast are very likely to have been deliberately brought here.

He recalled the identities of the eight individuals. Apart from Xiang Yi, whose origins were unknown, it seemed he had a close relationship with the leader of the alliance. The rest were members of various chambers of commerce.
Including himself, he used to be a guest scholar of the Qiong Yu Chamber of Commerce. When purchasing membership qualifications, he was also asked by Mr. Zou to join the chamber of commerce.
Trade alliances are not like sects. Major merchant guilds, driven by interests, appear to work together on the surface but in reality, each guild has its own ulterior motives and often secretly undermines the others.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu, the cultivator surnamed Pan, the young man with a sword...
These people flashed quickly through Qin Sang's mind. From their first meeting to now, everyone had behaved normally and hadn't revealed any signs.
Many people harbor ill intentions now, and it's impossible to trust anyone.
Qin Sang's heart sank. He abandoned the idea of meeting up with others, with only one thought in mind: kill Cui Ji and leave immediately, lest he be swept up in the undercurrents within the Merchant Alliance.
It's best to stay far away from this, as it involves the leaders of the Merchant Alliance and major business associations.
Qin Sang, while blocking Zi Xia, sent a sword light behind him to kill the Zi Xing Diao and clear the way. He was under tremendous pressure as he was attacked by both the Zi Xing Diao and Cui Ji.
His breathing grew increasingly rapid and shallow, the effects of his injuries becoming more apparent. His natal spirit sword was also dimming, indicating a precarious state of affairs.
Cui Ji glanced at Qin Sang and then at the site of the explosion, a hesitant expression on his face.
Finally, he poured all his true energy into the Ziyou Pearl, unleashing an attack that was no less powerful than the first.
Facing the imposing Zi Xia, Qin Sang found it very difficult to cope. He couldn't block all of her attacks and his body was repeatedly struck. The wound on his shoulder burst open, and blood gushed out like a spring.
The golden armor's appearance was even more pitiful, with one pit after another appearing and cracks densely covering it.
Fortunately, it didn't completely shatter and can still be salvaged, but restoring it to its original state won't be easy.
Qin Sang was the most severely affected, as his zhenyuan was rapidly consumed in an attempt to resist Zi Xia's poison. If not for the Fei Chan's detoxification armor, he definitely wouldn't have been able to suppress the poisonous mist.
I'm afraid the poison has already entered my internal organs, and I can only linger on.
Qin Sang retreated in a flurry, and was about to disappear into the depths of the Purple Star Eagle flock.
Cui Ji took a long look at Qin Sang, but instead of continuing the pursuit, he changed direction and rushed towards the place where the explosion had just occurred.
In his view, Qin Sang was severely injured, his true essence exhausted. He was plagued by both sword qi and poison mist, and his inner armor was almost broken. Falling into the flock of Zi Xing Eagles, he had no chance of survival at all.
Without the protection of the bone lotus, one must constantly circulate true essence to guard their body. The fluctuation of true essence is extremely noticeable and impossible to conceal from ferocious beasts' senses. One can only escape this desperate situation.
It can be said that Qin Sang is certain to die.
Let him enjoy his last moments of despair.
Cui Ji's mouth twitched with a sinister smile. Although he longed to kill his enemy, he feared contaminating his magical treasure and hesitated. It would be difficult to assassinate Qin Sang in the short term. What happened in the stone hall was more important.
Cui Ji withdrew.
Qin Sang stopped, her expression changing constantly.
Cui Ji's choice surprised Qin Sang very much.
It seems that the explosion there was indeed related to Cui Ji, but it's unclear which of the other six people were colluding with him and who among them was the victim. Previously, there was no indication of this at all.
Cui Ji did this, disrupting Qin Sang's calculations as well.
He planned to feign illness, luring Cui Ji closer and then taking him by surprise by releasing the two-headed hound. This would leave Cui Ji completely unprepared. With the two-headed hound at his side, he had a high chance of successfully killing Cui Ji.
Having avenged the ambush, he left this place of strife.
Now that Cui Ji has retreated, there's no point in chasing after him.
Qin Sang let out a soft sigh.
He will surely kill Choi Ji!
Even if Cui Ji didn't hurt him, being on someone's mind wasn't pleasant. It was wiser to nip danger in the bud. But he hadn't had the chance along the way, and Cui Ji had taken the lead instead.
Unfortunately, killing Choi Ji here under these circumstances is almost impossible. We can only wait for a better opportunity in the future.
Qin Sang glanced at where Cui Ji had disappeared.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
We can't wait any longer, we must leave as soon as possible.
He released the two-headed dog, straddling its back. The fat silkworm's enlarged body and poisonous armor protected both him and the two-headed dog.
"You go ahead and clear the way, I'll force the blade energy out of my wound first..."
Qin Sang whispered a few instructions to the two-headed hound, then calmed his mind and focused inward, running his cultivation technique with all his might.
Zhenyuan gathered at the wound, slowly forcing out the remaining blade energy from within.
Qin Sang's complexion recovered a hint of redness, swallowing a healing pill.
Address: feathers trailed shimmering ice crystals that glittered like stardust, scattering like rain.The qilin's cries were mournful and elegant. This final song was still as crisp and clear as a phoenix call...
