rù yǎn lián de shì yī tiáo dà shé
入眼帘的是一条大蛇
Before his eyes was a large snake.
bù 。 bú duì ， nà jǐn jǐn shì guài wù de tóu bù ， qí shēn qū yǔ hé mǎ jí qí xiāng sì yī rán ér què dà dé lí pǔ ， zú zú yǔ yī zuò xiǎo shān de tǐ jī chà bu duō
不。不对，那仅仅是怪物的头部，其身躯与河马极其相似一然而却大得离谱，足足与一座小山的体积差不多
No. Not quite, that was merely the monster's head. Its body resembled an elephant seal but was incredibly huge, about as big as a small mountain.
tián xiǎo jiàn yě suàn jiàn duō shí guǎng le 。 què cóng hé jiàn guò rú cǐ táng dà de guài wù ， měi wèi yī bù ， jiù yǐn qǐ hú miàn de yán jiāng bù tíng zhèn dòng
田小剑也算见多识广了。却从禾见过如此唐大的怪物，每未一步，就引起湖面的岩浆不停震动
Field Xiao-jian had seen many things in his travels, yet he'd never encountered such a monstrous creature before. Every step they took caused the lake surface to tremble with volcanic activity.
suī rán cóng xī shēn shàng bìng wèi gǎn jué dào líng bō ， què lìng yǒu yī gǔ sēn quē de chē xī sàn fà ér chū 。
虽然从牺身上并未感觉到灵波，却另有一股森缺的车息散发而出。
Although no spiritual energy emanated from its body, there was an eerie aura that permeated the area.
tián xiǎo jiàn bù yóu de tūn le yī kǒu tuò mò 。
田小剑不由得吞了一口唾沫。
Field Xiao-jian involuntarily swallowed hard.
gǔ shòu ！
古兽！
"Friend, we have no grudge against each other. Why must you be my enemy?" Field Xiao-jian spoke slowly.
ér qiě hái shì jí qí nán chán de nà zhǒng 。
而且还是极其难缠的那种。
"No grudge? That's true, but our animosity dates back to ancient times. We've been enemies and killed each other for ages; do we need a reason…" the demon lord replied coldly.
xīn zhōng àn àn jiào kǔ ， sì hū zì jǐ de hǎo yùn yòu dào tóu le
心中暗暗叫苦，似乎自己的好运又到头了
"True enough, but at our level of cultivation, no one would risk their lives without gain. Why are you pressing me so?" Field Xiao-jian frowned, unimpressed.
tián xiǎo jiàn máng shī zhǎn liǎn qì zhī shù 。 kě xī wéi shí zhēng le yī nà guài wù fán zhuǎn tǎo tóu lú ， yǎn zhōng yǐn yǐn yǒu bào nüè de guāng máng shǎn guò 。
田小剑忙施展敛气之术。可惜为时睁了一那怪物凡转讨头颅，眼中隐隐有暴虐的光芒闪过。
"Fine, if you insist on being straightforward, I'll take your soul and spirit directly." The demon lord grinned, his eyes gleaming with greed as he prepared to strike.
zhāng kāi kǒu ， jiù shì yī dào jù dà de guāng zhù ， guāng zhù sì zhōu ， hái xiàng guǒ zhe hēi hóng jī de diàn hú 。
张开口，就是一道巨大的光柱，光柱四周，还向裹着黑红击的电弧。
"What is this ancient cultivator's treasure?"
yuán běn tā men shēn chù yán jiāng zhī zhōng ， kě duì nà guāng zhù yīn méi yǒu bàn fēn zǔ dǎng de zuò yòng liù
原本他们身处岩浆之中，可对那光柱音没有半分阻挡的作用六
Field Xiao-jian couldn't possibly hand over a treasure he had just acquired. His acting skills were top-notch.
tián xiǎo jiàn liǎn sè yī chén ， shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài xiōng qián huà le yí gè yuán quān ， yī zhe tóu dà xiǎo de shēn ào fú wén yǐn xiàn ， hēi máng tūn tǔ jiān ， jìng rán huà wèi le yī shàng jiān xià fāng de dùn pái dǎng zài zì jǐ de shēn qián 。
田小剑脸色一沉，伸出手来，在胸前画了一个圆圈，一着头大小的深奥符文隐现，黑芒吞吐间，竟然化为了一上尖下方的盾牌挡在自己的身前。
"Since you're unwilling to cooperate, then be it. I'll use Soul-Extraction."
zhǎ yǎn jiān ， nà guāng zhù yǐ zhuàng le shàng lái 。
眨眼间，那光柱已撞了上来。
A sinister expression flashed across the demon lord's face as he prepared to strike. A dazzling light appeared before him, and an outline of a figure emerged.
rán ér què wú shēng wú xī ， mó qì yǔ lìng wài yī zhǒng gǔ guài de néng liàng jiāo zhī cún yì qǐ ， hù xiāng tūn shì 。
然而却无声无息，魔气与另外一种古怪的能量交织存一起，互相吞噬。
"What is this?"
kàn shì dǎng xià le gōng jī 。 rán ér tián xiǎo jiàn què liǎn shēng yī bái ， biǎo qíng yuè fā yīn chén le xià lái
看似挡下了攻击。然而田小剑却脸声一白，表情越发阴沉了下来
Field Xiao-jian reacted swiftly. He wasn't sure what the enemy was up to, but there was no harm in playing it safe.
zhè kě pà de gǔ shòu ， bǐ zì jǐ xiǎng xiàng de hái shuǎ kǒng bù zhāng shì bù xùn gàn yá ， yīng hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě 。
这可怕的古兽，比自己想象的还耍恐怖章似不逊干牙，婴后期的修仙者。
He sent out a divine thought, causing his earth armor to sink into the ground and hide using Earth Concealment.
duì fāng páng dà de shēn qū ， yǐ jiāng chū kǒu dǔ zhù ， tián jiàn bié kāi líng zé ， shēn xíng yī shǎn ， yǐ lái dào le nà shí zhù zhōng de chuán sòng zhèn shàng miàn
对方庞大的身躯，已将出口堵住，田剑别开凌择，身形一闪，已来到了那石柱中的传送阵上面
The demon lord paused, his gray eyes revealing a familiar aura.
suī rán yǒu xiē tǎn tè ， bù zhī dào huì bèi chuán sòng dào hé chù ， dàn gāo hǎo tǎo cún zhè lǐ yǔ gǔ shòu duì pīn de 。
虽然有些忐忑，不知道会被传送到何处，但羔好讨存这里与古兽对拼的。
Soon, the light faded, revealing a young man in a brocade robe with an jade belt.
tián xiǎo jiàn yě shì hěn là de rén wù 。 zhuǎn shùn jiān ， jiù zuò chū ， jì zé ， xiù páo yī fú ， jǐ kē jīng shí fēi lüè ér chū ， xiāng qiàn jìn chuán sòng zhèn sì zhōu de sì cáo zhī jīn
田小剑也是狠辣的人物。转瞬间，就做出，技择，袖袍一拂，几颗晶石飞掠而出，镶嵌进传送阵四周的四槽之巾
Field Xiao-jian!
suí hòu tā liǎng shǒu yī qiā ， yǐ qǐ dòng le zhèn fǎ 。
随后他两手一掐，已启动了阵法。
Even Field Xiao-jian's composure couldn't hide his shock. He had heard that Field Xiao-jian became the Young Master of Liuye Palace and was doing well, but he hadn’t expected to meet him under such circumstances.
wū wū de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yī céng huáng máng liàng qǐ xiàng guǒ zhù le tián 、 jiàn de shēn tǐ
呜呜的声音传入耳朵，一层黄芒亮起向裹住了田、剑的身体
However, compared to Lin Xuan, Field Xiao-jian looked even more surprised. The original purpose of this trip to Yunling Mountain was to seek information about Lin Xuan, only to find himself in a worse situation.
nà gǔ shòu xiǎn rán yǐ kāi qǐ le líng zhì 。 shé tóu bào nù yǐ jí ， cóng xuè wō dà kǒu jīn pēn chū yī dào xīng chòu de mò zhī 。
那古兽显然已开启了灵智。蛇头暴怒以极，从血窝大口巾喷出一道腥臭的墨汁。
Despite their surprise and confusion, they were not ordinary cultivators; there was still a formidable enemy before them.
càn ，
灿，
Lin Xuan appeared beside Field Xiao-jian, and the two became allies. "Brother!"
qiáng liè de fǔ shí 。
强烈的腐蚀。
Field Xiao-jian called out warmly. Both of them were cunning enough to understand that they needed each other's help.
tián xiǎo jiàn mì shù suǒ huà de dùn pái ， jìng bèi dòng chuān ér chū hǎo cún chuán zǎo zhèn yǐ jīng qǐ dòng cún yī piàn huáng máng zhī zhōng ， tián xiǎo jiàn shēn xíng zhú jiàn mó hú ， zhí zhì xiāo shī dé kāi yǐng kāi zōng
田小剑秘术所化的盾牌，竟被洞穿而出好存传澡阵已经启动存一片黄芒之中，田小剑身形逐渐模糊，直至消失得开影开踪
They quickly agreed to team up against their common enemy.
lìng yī biān lín xuān hé yāo mó yī jiù zài duì zhì zhī zhōng
另一边林轩和妖魔依旧在对峙之中
The demon lord’s face twisted into a sinister grin. He wondered what the True Monarch of Northern Void was doing, always wanting him and his opponent to fight to the death. Perhaps he could use this situation to turn the tables.
gāng gāng nà yī fān jiāo shǒu rú diàn guāng shí huǒ ， dàn duì nián shén yǒng rú hé 。 yī rén yī dōu zuò dào le xīn zhōng yǒu shù 。
刚刚那一番交手如电光石火，但对年神俑如何。一人一都做到了心中有数。
Logically, they were still cooperating, so he wouldn’t do such a thing.
lín xuān de mù guāng luò zài le yāo mó de duàn bì zhī chù ， nà jiǎ bù jǐn méi yǒu běi wàng xiān xuè liú chū ， fǎn ér yǒu wú shù ròu yá bù tíng rú dòng ， zhè ràng tā xiǎng qǐ le yāo líng dǎo shàng de jiā luó gǔ zuò yī tóng kǒng ， bù yóu de yī suō 。
林轩的目光落在了妖魔的断臂之处，那甲不仅没有北妄鲜血流出，反而有无数肉芽不停蠕动，这让他想起了妖灵岛上的迦罗古座一瞳孔，不由得一缩。
Despite his doubts, the demon lord wasn't overly fearful. He noticed that the earth armor was in its late form but seemed to have some issues with its spiritual intelligence, making it not much of a threat.
“ zài xià yǔ dào yǒu wú yuān wú chóu ， gé xià zhēn de yào yǔ wǒ wèi dí me 。” lín xuān huǎn huǎn de kāi kǒu 。
“在下与道友无冤无仇，阁下真的要与我为敌么。”林轩缓缓的开口。
With a burst of demonic light, he lunged forward.
“ wú yuān wú chóu 。 zhè huà dào yě bù cuò ， dàn nǐ wǒ liǎng shī cóng gǔ shí qī kāi shǐ jiù shì bù liǎng lì ， bǐ cǐ chóu shā ， nán dào hái xū yào shén me lǐ yóu …… yāo mó lěng suàn zhe kāi kǒu
“无冤无仇。这话倒也不错，但你我两施从古时期开始就誓不两立，彼此仇杀，难道还需要什么理由……妖摩冷算着开口
It wasn't instantaneous teleportation; after witnessing Lin Xuan's powerful techniques, he knew better. But his speed was still incredibly fast.
“ huà shì zhè me shuō ， kě xiū wèi dào le nǐ wǒ zhè ge dì bù ， méi yǒu hǎo chù ， shuí yòu huì píng bái wú gù de pīn gè nǐ sǐ wǒ huó ， dào yǒu kǔ kǔ xiàng bī ， jiū dì shòu wèi le shén me 。” lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu 。 bù yǐ wéi rán de shuō 。
“话是这么说，可修为到了你我这个地步，没有好处，谁又会平白无故的拼个你死我活，道友苦苦相逼，究帝兽为了什么。”林轩眉头一皱。不以为然的说。
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and raised his Fire Sword, striking with great force.
“ hǎo ， dào yǒu jì rán kuài rén kuài yǔ ， zài xià yě bù luò shàn yē shàn zhǐ bēi nǐ jiāng nà lí hé qī lǎo guài wù de yí bǎo jiāo chū 。 zài xià wèi bì bù kě yǐ fàng nǐ yī tiáo cùn lù 。” yāo zuò lüè yī chén yín 。 liǎn shàng lù chū tān lán zhī sè ， shī zi dà kāi kǒu de qǐng
“好，道友既然快人快语，在下也不落善掖善只卑你将那离合期老怪物的遗宝交出。在下未必不可以放你一条寸路。”妖座略一沉吟。脸上露出贪婪之色，狮子大开口的请
The demon lord let out a long howl as his figure blurred, then transformed into six separate figures.
“ gǔ xiū shì yí bǎo ， nà shì shén me ？”
“古修士遗宝，那是什么？”
Their appearance, physique, and even the refinement of their spiritual energy were identical to the demon's original form. He must have used some secret technique.
yǐ lín xuān de xìng gé ， nǎ yǒu kě néng jiāng dào shǒu de bǎo wù jiāo chū liǎn shàng lù chū chà yì zhī sè ， tā zuò xì de běn shì ， zì rán yě shì yī děng yī de
以林轩的性格，哪有可能将到手的宝物交出脸上露出诧异之色，他做戏的本事，自然也是一等一的
Six differenttreasureappeared in each of their hands: a sword, spear, saber, halberd, whip, and ring.
“ gé xià jì rán bù yuàn yì hé zuò ， yě bà ， běn zūn zì dòng nián jiāng nǐ xiù guī liàn pò 。”
“阁下既然不愿意合作，也罢，本尊自动年将你袖瑰炼魄。”
The six figures scattered, attacking Lin Xuan and Field Xiao-jian from all sides.
yāo mó de liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī lǚ zhēng níng zhī sè ， zhèng yù dòng nián yī zāi quē yī zēng yào mù de liàng bì ， chū xiàn zài le yǎn qián ， yǐn yǐn yǒu yí gè rén yǐng fú xiàn
妖魔的脸上闪过一缕狰狞之色，正欲动年一灾缺一增耀目的亮毙，出现在了眼前，隐隐有一个人影浮现
Originally, they had been two against one, but now the situation was more complex.
“ zhè shì shén me ？”
“这是什么？”
"What secret technique is this? Is it an illusion?"
lín xuān fǎn yìng yě jí wéi xùn sù 。 bù zhī dào lái de xuán dí mǒu lì nà me yīng yī zhàn hòu nián diǎn méi yǒu huài chù 。
林轩反应也极为迅速。不知道来的悬敌某力那么罂一占后年点没有坏处。
Lin Xuan's mind raced. However, he quickly realized something was amiss.
yī dào shén niàn fā chū ， chuán shān jiǎ dùn shí chén rù dì miàn ， yòng tǔ lù zhī shù yǐn cáng le qǐ lái
一道神念发出，传山甲顿时沉入地面，用土露之术隐藏了起来
There were three demons in front of him and on both sides, but Lin Xuan couldn't tell which ones were real or fake.
yāo mó yī dāi ， yě tíng xià shǒu zhōng de dòng zuò 。 huī bái shēng de yǎn zhū jīn yǒu yì mò shǎn guò ， zhè wéi ， xī ， mán shú xī de 。
妖魔一呆，也停下手中的动作。灰白声的眼珠巾有异莫闪过，这韦，息，蛮熟悉的。
Recalling his time on the Demon Spirit Island, Snow Fox had also used a clone technique, though not as precise as this one.
hěn kuài guāng máng shōu liǎn 。 xiàn chū yī jǐn páo yù dài de shào nián liù
很快光芒收敛。现出一锦袍玉带的少年六
Though only speculation, Lin Xuan didn’t dare to test it out.
tián xiǎo jiàn ！
田小剑！
He flicked his sleeve and the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring flew out. Countless ring shadows appeared, forming a white mist that enveloped him.
jí biàn yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ ， liǎn shàng yě bù yóu de lù chū cuò è zhī shēng
即便以林轩的城府，脸上也不由得露出错愕之声
This move could both attack and defend simultaneously.
suī rán tā zǎo jiù tīng shuō ， tián xiǎo jiàn chéng wéi le lí yào gōng shǎo xīn yī hùn dé fēng cùn shuǐ qǐ dàn yě méi xiǎng dào huì zài zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià xiāng yù 。
虽然他早就听说，田小剑成为了离药宫少辛一混得风寸水起但也没想到会在这种情况下相遇。
Field Xiao-jian was also caught in a similarflank attack.
rán ér yǔ lín xuān xiāng bǐ ， tián xiǎo jiàn de biǎo qíng què hái yào gèng jiā cuò è yī cǐ ， zhè cì yún lǐng shān zhī xíng de chū zhōng ， jiù shì yīn wèi dé dào le lín xuān de xiāo xī nǎ zhī shěng yī lù què dào méi kāi bǐ ，
然而与林轩相比，田小剑的表情却还要更加错愕一此，这次云岭山之行的初衷，就是因为得到了林轩的消息哪知省一路却到霉开比，
A look of confusion flashed across his eyes as he used the Soul-Devouring Saber to create multiple shadow clones, clashing head-on!
bù guò liǎng rén suī xīn zhōng jīng yí ， dàn tā men bì jìng wò fēi tóng jiē xiū shì kě bǐ ， yǎn qián hái yǒu dà dí 。
不过两人虽心中惊疑，但他们毕竟沃非同阶修士可比，眼前还有大敌。
It was too late to dodge now.
lín xuān shēn xíng yī shǎn ， yǐ jīng lái dào le tián xiǎo jiàn de páng biān ， liǎng rén xuán yǒu wú dí zhǎn qiě bù tán ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， jué duì shì yī tiáo xiàn shàng mǎ zhà de 。
林轩身形一闪，已经来到了田小剑的旁边，两人悬友吾敌斩且不谈，此时此刻，绝对是一条线上蚂炸的。
Boom!
“ dà gē ！”
“大哥！”
The loud explosion echoed. This time, Lin Xuan and Field Xiao-jian's strengths became apparent. Both were surrounded by three demon clones.
tián xiǎo jiàn yě jiào dé shí fēn qīn rè ， liǎng gè xiǎo huá tóu ， xīn jīn bào de dōu chà bu duō yī wú lùn rú hé 。 yě yào jiāng duì fāng tuō xià shuǐ de 。
田小剑也叫得十分亲热，两个小滑头，心巾报的都差不多一无论如何。也要将对方拖下水的。
On Lin Xuan’s side, the battle was evenly matched. The white mist repelled the attacks.
yě suàn yī pāi jí hé ， bù yòng duō shuō 。 jiù dìng xià le lián nián duì dí
也算一拍即合，不用多说。就定下了联年对敌
Field Xiao-jian, however, was in a much worse position. Although his Soul-Devouring Saber remained intact, its light flickered and almost vanished. His face was pale; he had taken some internal injuries.
yāo mó de liǎn shàng zé shǎn guò yī sī zhēng níng zhī guī ， běi míng zhēn jūn cún gàn shén me yì zhí fēi nà lǎo jiā huǒ xiǎng yào zì jǐ yǔ duì shǒu pīn gè ， nǐ sǐ wǒ huó ， zì jǐ lái gè huó rén dé máo me 。
妖魔的脸上则闪过一丝狰狞之龟，北冥真君存干什么一直非那老家伙想要自己与对手拼个，你死我活，自己来个活人得矛么。
"Ah."
àn lǐ shuō ， shuāng fāng hái zài hé zuò 。 tā bú huì gàn chū zhè yàng qín shì lái de
按理说，双方还在合作。他不会干出这样秦事来的
The demon lord was even more surprised. He used a technique called "Six-tooth Clone Technique." The spiritual pressure was fake, but each clone’s strength could match an advanced-stage middle-period cultivator.
xīn zhōng jīng yí ， bù guò yāo mó yě méi yǒu duō shǎo wèi jù ， tā kàn chū nà láo shān jiǎ diào jù huà xíng hòu qī 。 dàn líng zhì fāng miàn sì hū yǒu xiē wèn tí 。 bù zú wèi jù
心中惊疑，不过妖魔也没有多少畏惧，他看出那牢山甲吊具化形后期。但灵智方面似乎有些问题。不足为惧
Lin Xuan's ability to withstand it wasn’t surprising since he had already tested its power and found it comparable to a high-ranking cultivator.
hún shēn mó guāng yì qǐ ， yǐ pū le guò qù 。
浑身魔光一起，已扑了过去。
But the young Field Xiao-jian, only at the early stage of cultivation, had managed to hold off three peak middle-period existences.
bìng fēi shùn yí ， bì jìng tā yǐ jiàn shí guò lín xuān nà zhǎng gē fǎ cháng de wēi lì dàn jiàn dù yě xùn guà yǐ jí 。
并非瞬移，毕竟他已见识过林轩那长戈法尝的威力但谏度也迅挂以极。
The demon lord’s expression darkened. Even without the ancient cultivator's treasure, he intended to eliminate both of them. With this strength, if they advanced to late-stage middle-period cultivators…
lín xuān yǎn jīng yī mī ， jiāng qì huǒ jiàn jì qǐ ， hěn hěn de pī cì xià jiān
林轩眼睛一眯，将弃火剑祭起，狠狠的劈刺下尖
Danger must be eliminated before it grew. Humans and demons could not coexist.
yāo dàn yī shēng cháng xiào ， shēn xíng mó hú 。 suí hòu jìng huàn huà chū liù gè shēn yǐng lái le
妖淡一声长啸，身形模糊。随后竟幻化出六个身影来了
On another side,
bù lùn xiàng mào shēn cái ， dōu yǔ yāo yuàn běn tǐ wán quán xiāng sì qí xì cuì líng yā dōu xuán yá yīng hòu qī 。 yě bù zhī dào tā jiū jìng shǐ yòng le shén me mì fǎ
不论相貌身材，都与妖愿本体完全相似其系淬灵压都悬牙婴后期。也不知道他究竟使用了什么秘法
Wu Yun'er slowed her flight and stopped as a cloud formation blocked her path. She had no way out. The young woman’s face was pale, but she forced herself to remain calm. With Senior Lin Master occupied, survival depended on her alone.
suí hòu zhè xiē yāo mó jǔ qǐ shǒu lái ， liù zhǒng bù tóng de fǎ bǎo cún tā de zhǎng xīn jīn fú jiǎ men
随后这些妖魔举起手来，六种不同的法宝存他的掌心巾浮钾们
Fortunately, the demon cloud wasn’t as terrifying; it seemed only at the condensation stage.
fēn bié shì dāo ， qiāng ， jiàn ， jǐ 。 biān ， hái yǒu huán
分别是刀，枪，剑，戟。鞭，还有环
Biting her lip, Wu Yun'er flicked her sleeve and revealed a small crystal sword.
suí hòu liù gè shēn yǐng yī hòng ér sàn fēn bié xiàng lín xuān hé tián 、 fā , dǎ lái
随后六个身影一哄而散分别像林轩和田、发,打来
It appeared almost translucent, crafted from some kind of precious material.
yuán běn liǎng rén yǐ èr dí yī ， xiàn cún què xíng shì xiáng zhuǎn yǐn rù le yòng zhú lǐ ér
原本两人以二敌一，现存却形势详转隐入了用竹里而
Although she was under Ouyang Qinxin’s tutelage, she had only been practicing for twenty years. Even if she wasn’t as skilled in Sound Wave Technique, she usually relied on other methods.
“ zhè shì shén me mì shù ， huàn mù me ？”
“这是什么秘术，幻幕么？”
The demon cloud condensed and seemed to be sucked into its body, revealing a terrifying creature.
lín xuān nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn dòng ， dàn hěn kuài jiù chá jué chū bú duì le
林轩脑海中念头转动，但很快就察觉出不对了
It had a wide mouth with sharp teeth, eyes the size of copper bells, and two curved horns resembling those of a goat.
cǐ shí tā de qián fāng yǔ zuǒ yòu liǎng cè 。 yǒu sān gè yāo fèi ， kě lín xuān bìng bù huò dé nǎ yí gè shì jiǎ de 。
此时他的前方与左右两侧。有三个妖废，可林轩并不货得哪一个是假的。
Its tongue was constantly dripping red saliva, making it look both disgusting and terrifying.
jì de zài yāo líng dǎo shí 。 xuě hú wáng yě yǒu fēn shēn zhī shù rōng fēi zhè mǒu jiǔ shì de shén què 。
记得在妖灵岛时。雪狐王也有分身之术茸非这某韭似的神确。
Wu Yun'er had never encountered such a demon before; her heart raced with fear.
suī rán jǐn jǐn shì cāi cè ， dàn lín xuān kě bù gǎn qù cháng shì yī xià de
虽然仅仅是猜测，但林轩可不敢去尝试一下的
But fear was useless. She forced herself to point at its neck. The crystal sword’s light flashed, but the creature ignored it, dispelling the sword energy with a casual wave of its hand.
xiù páo yī fú ， jiǔ tiān míng yuè huán yǐ fēi lüè ér chū ， wú shù huán yǐng fú qī xíng xiǎo yī bái méng méng de jù fēng ， jiāng tā zì jǐ bāo guǒ 。
袖袍一拂，九天明月环已飞掠而出，无数环影浮期形晓一白蒙蒙的飓风，将他自己包裹。
Wu Yun'er was greatly alarmed and used divine thoughts to control the sword, aiming for the demon's neck. It failed to pierce, but the actual weapon wasn’t so easily dealt with.
zhè yī zhāo jì kě gōng dí 。 tóng shí yě kě yǐ yòng qiān zì zhǐ de fáng yù
这一招既可攻敌。同时也可以用千自只的防御
But as the monster opened its mouth, a black aura shot out, enveloping the sword and rendering it powerless.
ér tián xiǎo jiàn yě tóng yàng xiàn rù le lèi sì de jiā jī
而田小剑也同样陷入了类似的夹击
The monster then moved swiftly, approaching Wu Yun'er’s head, extending its claws to grab her.
zhè xiǎo zi yǎn zhōng yě shǎn guò yī fēn mí huò ， yōu míng suì xīn jiàn huàn pū chū yǐng chóng chóng ， yìng pèng ！
这小子眼中也闪过一分迷惑，幽冥碎心剑幻仆出影重重，硬碰！
A condensation-stage cultivator was reduced to nothing. As Wu Yun'er seemed about to perish, a light column descended from the sky.
Before his eyes was a large snake.
No. Not quite, that was merely the monster's head. Its body resembled an elephant seal but was incredibly huge, about as big as a small mountain.
Field Xiao-jian had seen many things in his travels, yet he'd never encountered such a monstrous creature before. Every step they took caused the lake surface to tremble with volcanic activity.
Although no spiritual energy emanated from its body, there was an eerie aura that permeated the area.
Field Xiao-jian involuntarily swallowed hard.
"Friend, we have no grudge against each other. Why must you be my enemy?" Field Xiao-jian spoke slowly.
"No grudge? That's true, but our animosity dates back to ancient times. We've been enemies and killed each other for ages; do we need a reason…" the demon lord replied coldly.
"True enough, but at our level of cultivation, no one would risk their lives without gain. Why are you pressing me so?" Field Xiao-jian frowned, unimpressed.
"Fine, if you insist on being straightforward, I'll take your soul and spirit directly." The demon lord grinned, his eyes gleaming with greed as he prepared to strike.
"What is this ancient cultivator's treasure?"
Field Xiao-jian couldn't possibly hand over a treasure he had just acquired. His acting skills were top-notch.
"Since you're unwilling to cooperate, then be it. I'll use Soul-Extraction."
A sinister expression flashed across the demon lord's face as he prepared to strike. A dazzling light appeared before him, and an outline of a figure emerged.
"What is this?"
Field Xiao-jian reacted swiftly. He wasn't sure what the enemy was up to, but there was no harm in playing it safe.
He sent out a divine thought, causing his earth armor to sink into the ground and hide using Earth Concealment.
The demon lord paused, his gray eyes revealing a familiar aura.
Soon, the light faded, revealing a young man in a brocade robe with an jade belt.
Field Xiao-jian!
Even Field Xiao-jian's composure couldn't hide his shock. He had heard that Field Xiao-jian became the Young Master of Liuye Palace and was doing well, but he hadn’t expected to meet him under such circumstances.
However, compared to Lin Xuan, Field Xiao-jian looked even more surprised. The original purpose of this trip to Yunling Mountain was to seek information about Lin Xuan, only to find himself in a worse situation.
Despite their surprise and confusion, they were not ordinary cultivators; there was still a formidable enemy before them.
Lin Xuan appeared beside Field Xiao-jian, and the two became allies. "Brother!"
Field Xiao-jian called out warmly. Both of them were cunning enough to understand that they needed each other's help.
They quickly agreed to team up against their common enemy.
The demon lord’s face twisted into a sinister grin. He wondered what the True Monarch of Northern Void was doing, always wanting him and his opponent to fight to the death. Perhaps he could use this situation to turn the tables.
Logically, they were still cooperating, so he wouldn’t do such a thing.
Despite his doubts, the demon lord wasn't overly fearful. He noticed that the earth armor was in its late form but seemed to have some issues with its spiritual intelligence, making it not much of a threat.
With a burst of demonic light, he lunged forward.
It wasn't instantaneous teleportation; after witnessing Lin Xuan's powerful techniques, he knew better. But his speed was still incredibly fast.
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and raised his Fire Sword, striking with great force.
The demon lord let out a long howl as his figure blurred, then transformed into six separate figures.
Their appearance, physique, and even the refinement of their spiritual energy were identical to the demon's original form. He must have used some secret technique.
Six differenttreasureappeared in each of their hands: a sword, spear, saber, halberd, whip, and ring.
The six figures scattered, attacking Lin Xuan and Field Xiao-jian from all sides.
Originally, they had been two against one, but now the situation was more complex.
"What secret technique is this? Is it an illusion?"
Lin Xuan's mind raced. However, he quickly realized something was amiss.
There were three demons in front of him and on both sides, but Lin Xuan couldn't tell which ones were real or fake.
Recalling his time on the Demon Spirit Island, Snow Fox had also used a clone technique, though not as precise as this one.
Though only speculation, Lin Xuan didn’t dare to test it out.
He flicked his sleeve and the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring flew out. Countless ring shadows appeared, forming a white mist that enveloped him.
This move could both attack and defend simultaneously.
Field Xiao-jian was also caught in a similarflank attack.
A look of confusion flashed across his eyes as he used the Soul-Devouring Saber to create multiple shadow clones, clashing head-on!
It was too late to dodge now.
Boom!
The loud explosion echoed. This time, Lin Xuan and Field Xiao-jian's strengths became apparent. Both were surrounded by three demon clones.
On Lin Xuan’s side, the battle was evenly matched. The white mist repelled the attacks.
Field Xiao-jian, however, was in a much worse position. Although his Soul-Devouring Saber remained intact, its light flickered and almost vanished. His face was pale; he had taken some internal injuries.
"Ah."
The demon lord was even more surprised. He used a technique called "Six-tooth Clone Technique." The spiritual pressure was fake, but each clone’s strength could match an advanced-stage middle-period cultivator.
Lin Xuan's ability to withstand it wasn’t surprising since he had already tested its power and found it comparable to a high-ranking cultivator.
But the young Field Xiao-jian, only at the early stage of cultivation, had managed to hold off three peak middle-period existences.
The demon lord’s expression darkened. Even without the ancient cultivator's treasure, he intended to eliminate both of them. With this strength, if they advanced to late-stage middle-period cultivators…
Danger must be eliminated before it grew. Humans and demons could not coexist.
On another side,
Wu Yun'er slowed her flight and stopped as a cloud formation blocked her path. She had no way out. The young woman’s face was pale, but she forced herself to remain calm. With Senior Lin Master occupied, survival depended on her alone.
Fortunately, the demon cloud wasn’t as terrifying; it seemed only at the condensation stage.
Biting her lip, Wu Yun'er flicked her sleeve and revealed a small crystal sword.
It appeared almost translucent, crafted from some kind of precious material.
Although she was under Ouyang Qinxin’s tutelage, she had only been practicing for twenty years. Even if she wasn’t as skilled in Sound Wave Technique, she usually relied on other methods.
The demon cloud condensed and seemed to be sucked into its body, revealing a terrifying creature.
It had a wide mouth with sharp teeth, eyes the size of copper bells, and two curved horns resembling those of a goat.
Its tongue was constantly dripping red saliva, making it look both disgusting and terrifying.
Wu Yun'er had never encountered such a demon before; her heart raced with fear.
But fear was useless. She forced herself to point at its neck. The crystal sword’s light flashed, but the creature ignored it, dispelling the sword energy with a casual wave of its hand.
Wu Yun'er was greatly alarmed and used divine thoughts to control the sword, aiming for the demon's neck. It failed to pierce, but the actual weapon wasn’t so easily dealt with.
But as the monster opened its mouth, a black aura shot out, enveloping the sword and rendering it powerless.
The monster then moved swiftly, approaching Wu Yun'er’s head, extending its claws to grab her.
A condensation-stage cultivator was reduced to nothing. As Wu Yun'er seemed about to perish, a light column descended from the sky.
