Chapter 2020: Black Hole
peak. He works as a ferryman at the first crossing. He was from the north and just fled here, unable to find a place to stay. I invited him to live in the Daoist temple for a while. Your room is empty...The appointed place is located within a stable divine vision.
When Qin Sang arrived, Master Xin and Luo Butler were already waiting there, along with several Xin family cultivators who had returned earlier.
Pei Gongfeng sat cross-legged on a rock not far away, his breath long and steady, as he entered meditation. It was unclear whether he had been cultivating there all along or had not left.
"Elder Qin, have you found anything"
As soon as Qin Sang arrived, Lao Guo, the steward, eagerly stepped forward to inquire.
The highest cultivator present was Qin Sang and Pei Feng, only they could enter the deeper area.
Pei Gungong, relying on his status, was unwilling to do such a trivial errand as scouting. They didn't dare urge him, and could only hope for news from Qin Sang.

“Luo Bo,” Young Master Xin softly called out to the steward, Luo, his tone lacking any urgency. He persuaded, “Elder Qin has just returned, and he must need rest. It’s not too late to wait for everyone to gather before we discuss this further.”
"The steward, Lao Nu, was taught by the young bishop that concern led to chaos. Please forgive him, Elder Qin," said Luo Guanjia with shame.
"It's fine," Qin Sang naturally wouldn't mind such trivial matters, and said frankly, "Although I will also help you keep an eye on it, the main reason is to find the Hua Yu Gui Teng for myself. In this past year, I haven't found a place that could cause the Fu Huo to react."

Unconsciously, they had already been in Fengju Yu Men for a year, having only explored a small part of it. Apart from encountering the unexpected and Su Nü, there hadn't been much progress in other things.
Hearing this, Lao Caogu secretly felt disappointed, knowing that he couldn't rush things. For high-ranking cultivators with long lifespans, a year wasn't anything. It was normal to look for them for ten or even eight years this time.
Luo the steward invited Qin Sang onto the Luan carriage, but Qin Sang looked towards the cultivators from the Xin family beside the Luan carriage. These were the Nascent Soul cultivators from the Xin family who had previously gone out to scout ahead and were now returning to report.
“Have any of you fellow cultivators noticed any signs of the presence of the Dihua Jade Vine” Qin Sang asked.
Several people looked at Luan Che, each taking out a jade slip and presenting it to Qin Sang.
"Reporting to Elder Qin, we haven't found the Earth Blossom Jade Vine. However, following your instructions, we have thoroughly explored every marked location and documented our findings. Please review them, Elder Qin."
Qin Sang put away the jade slip, got on the chariot, and sat behind the jade table, looking at them one by one.
These people were still quite responsible. The records in the jade slip were very detailed, showing that they had explored seriously. If they forged the records, Qin Sang would have seen through it immediately.
One by one, places were looked at and successively excluded by Qin Sang.
These places are said to be so mysterious and dangerous, in fact, almost all of them have exaggerated components. To low-level cultivators, they are naturally mysterious everywhere, and in the process of transmission, rumors spread, most of them are not what they seem, but that's all.
When Qin Sang was looking at the jade slip, the others gradually returned. Finally, Qu Zhen also came back with two cultivators from the Hengsha Sect. Thankfully, the various groups of cultivators only suffered some casualties due to accidents and had not been completely wiped out.
The message is summarized, there are no gains from a unified front, and we still need to divide our troops.
“Next, you will gradually explore deeper, where it becomes increasingly dangerous. Please be careful, and prioritize safety,” Xin Shaozu reminded them.
"Yes sir!"
Everyone bowed in response and was about to leave. Suddenly, Pei Fenggong's eyelids twitched, he woke up from his meditation, and said coldly, "With these useless people, when will you find anything This old man doesn't want to waste all his time on you. Give this old man a few sheets of talisman paper!"
Seeing that Master Pei was willing to come out of the mountains himself, the Xin family and their servants were overjoyed. They immediately presented a stack of talismans and said, “Thank you for your help, Master Pei.”
Pei Gungong let out a hum, put away the talisman paper, and transformed into a beam of white light, disappearing into the depths of the void.
Qin Sang told Hengsha to continue following his orders, then bid farewell to Xin Shao主 and galloped for a while until he reached an open expanse of dark void. He suddenly retracted his遁光 and said calmly, "I wonder which fellow Daoist has been following Qin for so long Why not reveal yourself and have a chat"
“Elder Qin’s spiritual awareness is indeed sharp,” a figure walked out of the darkness, it was Pei Gongfeng.
Upon seeing this man, Qin Sang was unsurprised and replied, "Since Master Pei did not deliberately conceal his aura, he should have no ill intentions towards me. Otherwise, I would have fled long ago."
“Is that so A respected elder of the Five Elements Alliance, would you be a cowardly person” Pei Gong's eyes flashed with disbelief, "However, Elder Qin did say something right, Pei has no ill will towards you.”
"As he spoke, he looked towards the interior of Fengju Yumen. "This place is full of danger. In Pei's memory, I've only been here three or five times and don't know much about it. It's better for us to travel together. Not only can we look out for each other, but there are rumors that the fragments of the ancient Jian Ge contain countless treasures. If you and I join forces to search for treasure, we will split the spoils equally, taking what we need. The matter concerning the Xin family is secondary. Pei once made a promise to the previous head of the Xin family, and out of face, he agreed to help the Xin family. Otherwise, Pei wouldn't bother."
"I see, Master Pei is a devout man!"
Qin Sang revealed a look of admiration, then said with regret, "Unfortunately, in Qin's eyes, nothing is more important than the Dihua Jade Guifei Vine. The Shanggu Jiange and the Xin family matters are the same. If we go together, I'm afraid it will delay Pei Feng's treasure hunt."
“Well, it seems I'm fated not to walk with Elder Qin. Then, Pei will wish Elder Qin fulfillment of his heart's desire soon,” said Master Pei with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
“May I borrow the auspicious words offered by Master Pei!”
Qin Sang bowed and flew away.
Gazing at Qin Sang's retreating figure, Pei Gong's eyes gradually turned cold. With a flash of his form, he vanished, leaving behind a cold snort.
On the way to Su Nü's secluded cultivation ground, Qin Sang was still pondering the relationship between Pei Gongfeng and the Xin family. According to what Qin Sang had seen and heard, it wasn't necessarily as simple as Pei Gongfeng said, but he had no interest in understanding it or getting involved; he leaned towards neither side.

At that time, if any disputes arise, we can just take the opportunity to act. If it gets too messy, we can simply withdraw.
The place where Su Nü secluded herself was a valley. A clear stream flowed within it, and green trees were everywhere, like an earthly paradise. It was hard to tell if it was a magical illusion or truly existed.
As soon as he stepped into the valley, he heard Su Nü's voice, "Qin brother, you're back"
Qin Sang replied with a sound, secretly surprised that Su Nu's voice seemed a little abnormal.
Before she could finish her words, a woman in white emerged from a treehouse in the woods. Qin Sang was startled. The woman's face was pale and she looked frail and weak. When she flew out of the treehouse, she resembled a ghost, like someone who was about to die.
How long ago did he leave, and what happened during that time
“I apologize, Brother Qin,” the woman said with a blush of shame. “Before, I was ambushed by two enemies and sustained an injury that has yet to fully heal. While it doesn’t usually affect me, I feared it might hold you back during our exploration of Jian Ge. I know a secret art that could dispel the ailment, so I tried using it, but I overlooked its dangers. In my haste, something went wrong halfway through, and I almost lost myself to demonic fire…”
Upon hearing this, Qin Sang felt a wave of helplessness wash over him. He didn't know what to say. A cultivator at the Refining Void stage could make such a blunder It could only be said that Su Nü was too strong-willed and unwilling to rely on others. Powerful individuals always possess an indomitable pride.
"The injury is serious"
Qin Sang looked at the woman in plain clothes, seeing that her breath was weak and unsteady. Even if she hadn't truly gone mad with fire, her strength had definitely been greatly reduced, and her injuries were even worse.
"Fortunately, I discovered the problem and stopped it in time. I only lost some energy, but the serious illness has basically been resolved. It's likely that I will need to retreat for a few years. During these years, I'm afraid I won't be able to explore Jian Ge with Brother Qin," sighed Su Nu.
“You don't have to worry too much, your priority is to recover. The fragments of the Jian Ge have existed for so long, a few more years won't make a difference. I'll go and gather information myself, and contemplate those ancient prohibitions within the Jian Ge. When you come out, we can join forces to explore it together.”
Qin Sang comforted him.
"Many thanks for your understanding, Brother Qin," the fairy's jade hand flipped, retrieving a cyan jade pendant. "While I am in seclusion, I cannot be distracted. This jade is the key to the valley formation. Brother Qin, with this jade, you can enter and leave the valley freely in the future and return to rest."
Qin Sang couldn't refuse, so he accepted the jade pendant. However, although Su Nü appeared calm and collected, Qin Sang secretly decided to visit less often in the future. Who wants someone around while they are healing
After exchanging a few words, Qin Sang did not enter the valley and bid farewell to Su Nü.
Having flown a certain distance, Qin Sang turned back to look in the direction of the valley. His brows furrowed as he pondered for a moment before finally shaking his head and speeding off towards his predetermined goal.
It's good that the virgin girl is going into seclusion. Then there's no need to find excuses to get her out of the way anymore.
As for Qin Sang, the most important thing was to find a way out. His life and fortune were at stake, so the escape route had to be in his own hands. He couldn't let others know about it, not even Su Nu.
For Qin Sang, the most important things about Ziwei Palace were: one was sealing Bing Yao's Heavenly Mountain, and the other was the teleportation array leading to Qisha Hall.
This formation is located within a Sword Path Hall. Qin Sang recalled that when the Immortal Palace appeared in the world, there were huge changes here, with divine peaks rising from the earth. He wondered if this place had separated from the Purple Micro Palace. If they could find the Sword Path Hall, it might be possible to directly enter other Sword Pavilions.
While Su Nü was recovering from her injuries, Qin Sang explored the abundance of jade gates in Feng Ju and searched for fragments of Jian Ge. For the most part, he would only glance at them, confirming they weren't what he sought before moving on.
Next, he selected some places from the records of people like Qu Zhen and went there in person, but each time was met with disappointment.
Qin Sang was undeterred. He persevered in his search, venturing deeper and deeper into Fengju Yumen.
On this day, when Qin Sang arrived at the agreed-upon time with Zhu Que, she emerged from the depths and hurried to the location. Immediately, she heard Zhu Que's loud and boisterous voice.
“You're finally back! Come with me!”
Zhu Que grabbed hold of Qin Sang's sleeve, impatiently pulling him forward.
Qin Sang scanned his surroundings and found that the Fire Jade Centipede and the two demon lords were gone. He frowned and said, "Did they encounter danger"
Zhu Que snorted and said, "What are you thinking! We found a good place, two scouts, one is dead inside, Xiao Wengong and the others are guarding there."
"Oh"
Qin Sang became interested and enveloped Zhuque with his true essence. He transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew towards the place Zhuque had indicated.
Passing through swathes of dark void and mystical illusions, they finally arrived at a place where mystical illusions stood tall.
These divine visions are arranged very closely, with almost no space between them. The clashes between them are also more intense than elsewhere, making it daunting to look at.
This is still within normal limits, but as they get closer to their goal, abnormalities gradually appear.
"How is it Is anything unusual"
The Vermillion Bird held its head high, proud and smug, "It was this Vermillion Bird who discovered it first!"
"You did a good job this time."
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Qin Sang gave his full approval.
He felt an intangible force spreading from within outwards. This force was subtle yet immensely powerful, causing the surrounding mystical illusions to distort and clash.
Shrouded by the tremors of those divine illusions, only those with a sharp enough spiritual awareness could perceive this power's existence. Had it not been for Zhu Que's reminder, he might have overlooked it entirely.
Pressing on relentlessly, they finally reached their destination and encountered the demons led by Lu Hou. As expected, only one captive remained.
"That's it right here!"
Vermilion raised its wings and pointed forward, where there was nothing, only endless darkness.
Unlike the outer void, this place is absolute darkness. There isn't a single ray of light, as if it were a dead space.
“There seemed to be an invisible void ahead, constantly emanating a powerful pull. That guy hadn't gone far before he was suddenly sucked in. We didn't even have time to save him...” Gui Hou said with lingering fear.
The captured scout was pulled away, and the connection to his restraints was immediately severed. It's estimated that he met a grim end. A cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, without any resistance, was swallowed by darkness. If not for the scouting stone, they could have been the ones in danger.
They tried various methods, but still dared not get too close, they could only invite Qin Sang over.

Listening to their descriptions, Qin Sang's eyes lit up, gazing into the darkness.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
In his vision, the darkness gradually shifted, a massive outline beginning to emerge.
This is not empty, but a huge black disk. The black disk is rotating, seeming very slow, yet giving a feeling of immense and unstoppable power.
The Black Disk is not a physical object, but rather a thick, ever-flowing force, an incredibly powerful suction that creates tangible waves in the void. And at the very center of the Black Disk, as Gui Hou said, there seems to be a void, an all-consuming void!
What's strange is that the black market is too stable, and the power in the void is abnormally calm. If you are sucked into the void, will you be torn apart instantly or sent somewhere else
Wouldn't there exist a strange passage
Zhuge was thinking along these lines, so he called Qin Sang over. As long as they could figure out what was going on in the void, perhaps they could find the best way out.
But everything ahead was unknown. How could he just rush in recklessly The more Qin Sang looked, the more uneasy he felt. Once sucked into the void, even he wouldn't be sure if he could escape its pull. Even if it was a passage, if it led to a place deeper than Fengju Yumen, somewhere even more dangerous than the void, wouldn't that be courting death
"Master, shall we send another one in" Guihou led the last captive forward.
This person's eyes were vacant, their expression blank, with not a trace of fear. Dying here was a kind of liberation for him.
Qin Sang shook his head. A nascent soul cultivator captured by the suction force would vanish into the void instantly, let alone this man who was determined to die. There was no point in referencing him. He had to personally go up against it, or ask another Void Refinement cultivator for help.
He moved his figure slightly, cautiously approaching the black disc, feeling the suction, and observing the changes in the void.
