ially at the first ferry crossing, which is the most chaotic. Brother Qin, you have no martial arts, so once you disembark, you must be careful and keep your money bag well hidden. Don't lose a single...Before dawn broke, Qin Sang stopped practicing and went out.

According to the shopkeeper, there aren't usually this many cultivators in the marketplace. Only during these few days around the full moon do all the cultivators near Youshan converge here, each seeking what they need.

These days are the best time to gather information.

Qin Sang actually wanted to make a few friends, but unfortunately, every cultivator was very cautious. Every time Qin Sang tried to get close, he would be met with wary eyes from the other party, as if Qin Sang had some ulterior motive. Then they would show an attitude of keeping people at arm's length.

It's rare to find someone as naive and inexperienced as the Tan brothers.

As soon as Qin Sang thought of the missing, accidental death, and enemy assassination in each entry of the Song family tree, she understood.

Qin Sang thought to himself, if he wanted to gather information, he'd have to do it like he did in San Wu City - find a crowded place and make some connections.

Xian Ming Lou and Huan Xi Fang, these places are undoubtedly the best, but going in will cost spirit stones.

Qin Sang endured the pain and walked into Qingshi Street. Suddenly, she noticed that people were thronging in the depths of Qingshi Street, very lively. She suddenly remembered that today wasn't the mid-month.

It seems like the Artifact Pavilion is about to open. As expected, it's quite a sight. All these arrogant cultivators are lined up, eager to get into the Artifact Pavilion.

Qin Sang had no money to buy it, but he was also eager to broaden his horizons, so he walked towards the Shenqi Pavilion.

The Artifact Pavilion was very spacious. Shelves lined the walls, stacked with artifacts like goods in an ordinary shop. Many cultivators crowded around the shelves, picking out what they wanted on their own. There were no maids or attendants around.

Qin Sang secretly used his qi-sensing technique to look, and saw that the black-cloaked old man standing at the entrance of the artifact pavilion stood with his hands behind his back, unwavering like a mountain, looking calmly into the shop. His spiritual energy was so dense it was astonishing, he was very likely a cultivator at the Qi Refinement stage!

That's why he isn't afraid of anyone stealing it.

Qin Sang was inwardly shocked, his expression becoming even more respectful. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to step inside, a black-robed elder suddenly reached out and stopped him.

>

With so many people going in before, no one had ever been stopped. Qin Sang saw the old man in black looking him up and down, and his heart was pounding. "Junior Qin Sang greets his senior," he said nervously.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Are you a lone cultivator How old are you this year" the black-clad elder suddenly spoke.

Qin Sang was slightly taken aback and replied, "Reporting to the senior, I am a casual cultivator, twenty-two years old this year."

"Twenty-two years old... Qi Refining Stage Fifth Layer, hmm...oh The cultivation method is still the Netherworld Scripture. Come with me..."

The old man in black nodded and walked back into the inner room.

Qin Sang was startled to be seen through, but also confused.

But the black-robed elder was a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He could crush Qin Sang like an ant with ease. Qin Sang could only follow the elder step by step, cautiously asking: "Senior, this is my first time coming to Shenqi Pavilion. I wonder what senior's name is and why he called me here"

The old man in black looked at Qin Sang strangely, "You brought the token here and are still afraid that an old man like me would harm you Just give me the token, and go inside."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Relic

Qin Sang thought of the jade disc and hurriedly took it out, handing it to the black-clothed old man. He secretly wondered what use this token had, but it didn't seem like a bad thing. Just in case it was really an internal auction, he wouldn't bid anyway, just treat it as sightseeing.

As they spoke, the elderly man in black pushed open the inner room door. Qin Sang saw the scene inside and was slightly stunned.

A desk stood by the entrance of the room. A pale-faced young man in a brocade robe was languidly leaning against it, playing with a blood-colored snake in his hand. He was clearly an eighth-layer cultivator at the Qi Condensation stage.

Inside, there were some cushions. Five people sat cross-legged on the cushions. They were about the same age as Qin Sang and their cultivation levels were all around the fourth or fifth level of the Qi Refining period. Two of them were even the Tan brothers Qin Sang had seen the day before yesterday.

The noise of the door opening startled everyone in the room.

The young man in the brocade robe hurriedly put away his lazy expression, stood up and respectfully said, "Uncle Master Yue."

With another glance at Qin Sang, he smiled and said, "Uncle Yue has brought another disciple this time. The harvest is bigger than ever before."

Everyone in the room was secretly eyeing Qin Sang. The Tan brothers obviously recognized him too, Tan Hao opened his mouth, only to be pulled back by Tan Jie.

Seeing that they seemed unwilling to acknowledge knowing him, Qin Sang endured and didn't greet them.

But, despite their small actions, the Tan brothers couldn't escape the watchful eyes of the old man in black.

"Do you know them" The black-clad old man turned his head and squinted at Qin Sang.

Qin Sang did not dare to hide anything, so he briefly recounted the process of how they had met before.

The black-cloaked elder nodded, not probing further. He pointed at Qin Sang and said to the young man in brocade, "Test his spiritual roots."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

"Yes."

The youth in a magnificent sable robe walked up to Qin Sang and, after several tests, suddenly revealed a look of deep surprise on his face. He frowned and stared at Qin Sang, seeming unable to believe the results, then carefully repeated the process again.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Seeing the expression on the young man in the brocade robe, Qin Sang knew what was going on. It seemed that Tan Ming hadn't lied to her; she really didn't have any spiritual roots.

Does the Artifact Pavilion want to accept disciples

Could the jade platter be like a kind of token similar to the sword intent scriptures of Mount Shaohua

According to the shopkeeper next to me, behind the Artifact Pavilion is a powerful sect. Joining the sect would certainly be good, but the problem is that I don't have spiritual roots.

Without spiritual roots and cultivation, wouldn't one be sent to be dissected

Qin Sang didn't expect to be tested for his spiritual roots as soon as he entered. With a Foundation Establishment cultivator watching nearby, he couldn't even run away. He was extremely panicked and racked his brain thinking of how to escape.

The old man in black frowned and shouted, "Liang Yan, what are you doing"

Qin Sang suddenly jolted, only to hear the youth in the brocade robe repeatedly say, "Reporting to Senior Uncle Yue, this junior brother is actually a fake spiritual root...and he possesses all five elements. At first, I thought the test was wrong. According to the sect's rules, this junior brother is not qualified to enter and cultivate."

"What"

Not only the old man in black, but also everyone else's expressions were a little strange. They had already used their Qi-Gazing technique to see Qin Sang's realm. He was not very old, and he was already a genuine fifth-layer cultivator of the Qi Refining Period. His talent should be good, but who knew that he was actually a false spiritual root with all five elements.

There was a young man staring at Qin Sang with strange eyes. His cultivation was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, even weaker than Qin Sang's, but he was a three spiritual root!

The reason why pseudo spiritual roots are called pseudo spiritual roots is that their cultivation speed is extremely slow, and the hope of breaking through to the foundation building stage is slim. A mixed spiritual root with all five elements is even slower, and no sect would accept it.

Little did they know, of all the people present, Qin Sang was the most shocked.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

I actually have spiritual roots, Zhen Ming tricked me!

I have never offended him, why would he do this If it weren't for Zhenming, I would be cultivating at the Han family now, why would I have to travel so far.

>

Qin Sang, consumed with anger, momentarily forgot what the Five Elements Spiritual Roots represented.

The old man in black frowned, "It's not impossible for someone with a fake spiritual root to cultivate to the fifth layer of Qi Refining at this age, but your cultivation technique is the Nether Scripture... have you had some kind of adventure"
