Chapter 1527: Civilization
g the vast ocean on a rainy night.They urged their true essence to form a protective barrier, standing on the peak and gazing towards the direction of the Qilin Dragon's lair.At first, there was no di...Nine years later.
The divine shuttle sped alone through the tempest, tirelessly but still unable to see an end.
Experienced a ferocious beast attack.
Qin Sang and Liuli were more cautious and tired than before, taking longer rests each time.
In addition, Qin Sang had an idea.
This is the translated text:

If there is life surviving in the storm belt, then could there be other unknown existences
With this in mind, whenever Qin Sang had free time, he would walk around each refuge.
Even if he made a discovery, the chances of it being fortunate rather than dangerous would be slim.
Given Qin Sang's temperament, every adventurous move is carefully considered. She weighs the pros and cons thoroughly and wouldn't undertake something with almost no return.
But he was always enthusiastic about it.
It is not expecting fate to intervene.
Driven by the thirst for knowledge and a longing for the mysteries of the unknown!
In the vast and boundless storm belt, Qin Sang could only explore a negligible point, akin to finding a needle in the sea.
In fact, he didn't make any new discoveries, not even encountering a second beast.
Inside the divine shuttle.
>
Qin Sang woke from his meditation and put away the magic banner in his palm.
Over twenty years of hard work has not been in vain. Qin Sang devoted almost all his energy to "The Fire Seed Lotus".
Within the Purple Mansion, the Fire Lotus was noticeably larger than before, appearing even deeper. It had originally been shaped like a lotus seed, but now gradually outlined the silhouette of a Black Lotus.
"How much longer"
Qin Sang blurted out, asking Liuli who was controlling the divine shuttle.
In fact, the nautical chart is right there, visible at a glance.
Since Liuli didn't wake him, it meant everything went smoothly on the way. Through the cultivation time, one could roughly judge the current location of the divine shuttle.
Although, Qin Sang still habitually asked Liuli out of boredom.
If he doesn't speak up, I believe Liuli could easily maintain a hundred years of silence.
It's also unknown whether her personality is innate or formed after a drastic change.
"One hour."
Her glazed vermilion lips parted slightly, still cherishing words like gold.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
There's progress!
Qin Sang nodded secretly.
In the past, Liuli would only answer questions she deemed meaningful, perhaps at most pointing to a spot on the nautical chart. Now, she can speak and respond.
After one hour, they arrived not at Zhongzhou but at the next refuge.
Qin Sang did not enter meditation to cultivate again. He took the divine shuttle and let Liuli rest.
The scenery is monotonous, I've long been tired of it.
Qin Sang, bored out of his mind, piloted the divine shuttle. His thoughts drifted to what the next refuge would be like, what surprises it might hold for them.
His journey to various shelters had truly opened his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, a time had passed. Refuge was in sight.

Qin Sang put away her chaotic thoughts and gazed ahead.
The glass heart sensed something and also opened its eyes.
The divine chariot raced forward, and the storm ahead gradually thinned.
Immediately afterward, their vision broadened abruptly. The shelter came into view unobstructed, laid bare before them in its stark reality.
Qin Sang and Liuli were instantly stunned!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Azure sea and sky.
As far as the eye can see!
A strange barrier separates the inside and outside into two completely different worlds.
One is chaotic, one is tranquil.
Inside the barrier, although still affected by the storm belt with continuous strong winds and heavy rain, the noise and chaos are nothing compared to the storm belt, it can be called a paradise!
>
They were all too familiar with this sight.
Any cultivator who has ever been to the boundary between the Immortal Cultivation Realm and the Storm Zone will be no stranger to it.
Qin Sang and Liuli looked at each other, both their eyes filled with surprise and confusion, and they simultaneously turned to look at the nautical chart.
Such vastness!
So peaceful!
Could it be a cultivation world ahead
Why is there no special marking on the nautical chart
Along the way, the nautical chart has not made a single mistake.
>
"Whoosh!"
The shuttle flew effortlessly out of the storm zone and into this azure-filled world. It was as if all the chaos had peeled away from them, leaving a long-awaited sense of calm for both.
"Is this really the Immortal Cultivation World"
Qin Sang was full of doubts. He looked around and found that this world was far wider than he had imagined. The largest shelter he had ever seen before was just a mountain range.
When things are unusual, there must be a demon.
Qin Sang cautiously halted his divine shuttle, pondering, "Let's travel on foot and first investigate what this place is. Perhaps there are cultivators here."
Walking is easier to conceal one's tracks.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The two immediately left the divine shuttle, using their body techniques to walk on water, moving forward at a leisurely pace.
Qin Sang probed his divine sense into the sea, and sure enough, he found traces of fish and shrimp. This proved that there was life here, completely different from those lifeless shelters.
After speeding for a while.
A dark shadow appeared on the surface of the sea. It was probably an island, without a doubt.
From afar, you could see the greenery on the island and birds leaping through the trees.
The two of them slowed their pace, concealing their figure and approaching the island.
Qin Sang didn't sense any special auras. He went onto the island and walked around it, but he didn't find any cultivators. However, in a patch of forest, he found something unusual.
"This was once a place where humans lived."
The glass beads fell between two large trees, and she stated confidently.
She waved her sleeves to sweep away the weeds and withered vines, revealing a section of damaged stone wall. She then unearthed pottery jars and other artifacts from beneath the soil, clear signs of intelligent life.
However, looking at this desolate scenery, it must be the ruins of many years ago.
"Sure enough, someone's here! At least it's a sentient being!"
Qin Sang said in a low voice.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This discovery alone was enough to set this place apart from those shelters.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!
After a brief pause, they continued on their journey and found several more islands.
After careful searching, they found more ruins suspected to be human settlements, but each one was buried beneath dense jungles. Over time, they had been eroded and were almost completely integrated with nature.
They found beasts, birds, fish, and insects here. A natural balance, teeming with life, yet there was no sign of humans!
These islands are situated a distance from the storm belt, so they are not greatly affected by storms. The resources on the island are very abundant for ordinary people; why would they be completely abandoned
Their puzzlement grew deeper and deeper, so they quickened their pace.
"We've reached land!"
Qin Sang said softly.
Another shadow appeared on the sea surface. Unlike before, this shadow had no visible edges at both ends, far surpassing any islands in size.
Yet, the feelings of both became increasingly strange.
Even the most discerning people here couldn't abandon such a vast continent.
But the islands on the edge of the mainland were still just like before, abandoned for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, deserted and uninhabited. It was simply too illogical.
According to various signs, Qin Sang and Liuli thought of a possibility, their expressions growing increasingly heavy.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
They skimmed the surface of the sea and landed on the mainland.
From a high vantage point, the view encompasses an endless expanse of green.
On land.
The mountains rose and fell, with peaks piercing the sky.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Rivers surge and flow, a hundred streams converging into the sea.
Birds sing and flowers fragrance, wild beasts roam.
Beneath the breathtaking scenery, lies a different kind of deathly silence.
>
Near the coast, by rivers, these incredibly fertile lands, yet not a single city, village, or human being could be found!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"The spiritual energy here is very thin."
Luli glanced around and began to describe her discoveries.
Qin Sang nodded and added, "It's understandable that there are no cultivators or demonic beasts. But where did the humans who originally lived here go"
As he spoke, Qin Sang's figure suddenly plummeted, landing at the confluence of mountains and rivers, a fertile plain.
>
As expected, there are indeed ruins nearby!
Qin Sang circled the ruins, and was surprised to find that this place should have been a city. In the mortal world, it would definitely be considered a magnificent city.
Now the capital of the Sui Dynasty is no more than this!
Though the wooden structures within the city have long since decayed, many traces remain. Some are stone-built walls and fortifications.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! I can handle a variety of languages.
Of course, this relic is no exception. Most of it is buried in the soil, and the exposed parts are covered with weeds and vines, weathered to a considerable extent.
Qin Sang tried to find traces of war but was unsuccessful, so he expanded his search area.
Soon they found the ruins of other cities. This was easy because the cities were very close together, and one could imagine how prosperous they must have been in their day.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But all have become history.
They no longer confined themselves to exploring the ruins of mortals. They began searching for traces of cultivators, observing the flow of earth energy and feng shui, and tracing the changes in spiritual energy to explore spirit veins.
Gradually going deeper into the mainland.
The two of them didn't deliberately search, but they later discovered many city ruins. As they ventured deeper and deeper, they finally sensed a place that was considered quite good for low-ranking cultivators in this barren land.
Here we are deep in the mainland.
All the spirit veins nearby converge in one direction. It's highly unlikely to be a natural formation, it's most probable that someone artificially moved the spirit veins here!
Their spirits lifted, they quickened their pace and hurried upstream.
Soon, a mountain range came into view, like a slumbering azure dragon, gathering wind and Qi. It was indeed a picturesque and spiritually auspicious place.
Qin Sang and Liuli's figures paused slightly, their gazes fixed on the highest peak of the mountain range.
This peak is towering and perilous, it's the highest they've ever seen.
The most peculiar thing was a towering stone stele standing atop the mountain, which was the most prominent feature of the place.
'Whoosh!'
Qin Sang and Liuli landed in front of the stone tablet.
The stone tablet has writing.
This is a text paragraph.
A steel painting, silver hook.
Qin Sang waved his hand, tearing off the vines that climbed all over the stone stele. Seeing the whole picture, his figure instantly froze like a sculpture.
“There, once existed a civilization.”
Here is the translation of your text:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Simple handwriting, plain tone.
Qin Sang felt an overwhelming sense of sorrow, his heart pounding like a drum. His mind raced with images of the ruins, each one a painful reminder. He could barely breathe.
There once was a civilization here, incredibly prosperous.
Now, civilization...has perished!
In the midst of the jungle, beneath the yellow soil, lies the only trace left behind by this vanished civilization.
The wind on the summit was extremely strong, cutting into one's face like a knife.
Qin Sang stood silently, unable to speak for a long time.
Stele.
Perhaps this was the final masterpiece of this civilization.
Or are they like passersby, erecting tombstones for this civilization
>
When they learned that the entire world was a boundless storm, and their cultivation world was only protected from destruction by an outer barrier, Qin Sang couldn't help but think.
The day the barrier is destroyed will be one of utter despair!
The barrier here has not been destroyed, but civilization disappeared for some unknown reason.
These nascent soul cultivators, appearing to stand at the peak of the world, are in reality incapable of breaking free from their confines. How different are they from civilizations trapped and destroyed here
No imagination can compare to the shock of seeing things with your own eyes.
It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.
Indeed, well said.
"Whew…"
After a long time, Qin Sang exhaled the breath that had been stuck in her chest and looked at Liuli.
Lily gazed at the stone tablet, her lips pressed tightly together.
After years of companionship, Qin Sang understood Liuli's temperament. This expression of hers only appeared when she made an important decision or was deeply moved.
Qin Sang bowed respectfully to the stone tablet and said softly, "I'll go take a look elsewhere."
Indeed, there were signs of cultivators all around.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
It's likely that the cultivators who came here weren't too powerful. The restrictions left behind couldn't have lasted this long, and there must have been passersby who arrived even earlier than them. Even if something was taken, it wouldn't be surprising.
Qin Sang turned around, regrettably finding no other records.
Why civilizations collapse remains a mystery.
Qin Sang returned to the stone tablet. Liuli's expression had returned to calm, and she deeply bowed to the stone tablet.
The two of them set off silently.
They had always been like this, but the atmosphere this time was heavier than before. Even with their temperament, it would take some time to digest.
This is the smallest and most barren cultivation world Qin Sang had ever seen.
They searched every corner, but ultimately no one was found.
Came back empty-handed.
They all want to leave here.
Here is the translated text:

On a deserted island, the two stopped to rest. They hadn't experienced any fighting, yet they were more weary than ever before.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Qin Sang took a moment to catch his breath, then opened the corpse puppet bag and summoned Yugu. As usual, he checked her condition and helped her activate the bone curse, smoothing out her qi and blood.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After finishing all of that, Qin Sang discovered that Liuli had woken up at some point and was looking at him.
Liuli hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, “She... is your Taoist partner”
After more than twenty years of living together, Liuli had seen the mute woman many times before, but this was the first time she spoke to her.
Qin Sang smiled, placed the mute back into the corpse puppet bag, shielded his senses, and then said: "Her name is Jin Liuying. She has kindness towards me, and I originally wanted to sever ties with her, but unexpectedly she was implicated by me and suffered misfortune..."
Qin Sang sat cross-legged on the ground, recalling his experience upon first entering Canglang Sea, and he recounted it to Liuli in detail, telling her about his story with the mute woman.
Liuli sat upright and listened attentively.
“At first, out of a sense of duty and guilt, I vowed to do everything in my power to save her. But later, I discovered that the Heaven Corpse Talisman was not so simple. I searched for all kinds of corpse-path magic techniques, trying every means possible, but to no avail, which has led me to this day of stagnation.”
To be honest, I didn't expect her to last this long. It's not logical.
I could feel her pain and struggle in the darkness, on the brink of being lost, desperately clutching at every fragile lifeline.
It's hard to imagine what kind of belief and strength it took for a girl who was only at the Qi Refining stage back then to persevere until now. During that time, she even saved me once...
Qin Sang sighed and gently stroked the corpse puppet bag, his voice firm: "She's still fighting for her life, how could I give up As long as she persists, I will do my best to find a way to save her! This trip to Zhongzhou, hopefully there is a chance. After entering Zhongzhou, I hope the fairy can help me keep an eye out for the ghost mother's whereabouts."
When listening to the story, Liuli remained very quiet, seemingly engrossed in it.
Her eyelashes fluttered, her glazed eyes slowly lifted to meet Qin Sang's gaze.
