，卤的灵与所刷不多，但极品晶石毕竟不同千普沥的么润一迟疑，林轩还是将牺们收入了储物袋里。
, The spirit of the demon infant was weak and the amount of essence qi it had wasn't much. But the top-grade crystal stones were indeed different from ordinary ones. After some hesitation, Lin Xuan still put them away in his storage bag.
zhèn fǎ tíng zhǐ ， líng guāng wù qì tōng tōng sàn kāi ， jīng guò qiān chuí bǎi liàn de mó yīng lù chū le róng yán 。
阵法停止，灵光雾气通通散开，经过千锤百炼的魔婴露出了容颜。
The array stopped, and the spiritual light and mist dispersed, revealing the face of the refined demon infant after its hundredfold refinement.
yǔ yǐ qián xiāng bǐ ， míng xiǎn qiáng zhuàng le xǔ duō ， hún shēn suī rán yī jiù qī hēi rú mò ， dàn nà xiē yān hóng rú xuè de fú wén quán dōu xiāo shī dé wú yǐng wú zōng 。
与以前相比，明显强壮了许多，浑身虽然依旧漆黑如墨，但那些殷红如血的符文全都消失得无影无踪。
Compared to before, it had clearly grown stronger, though its body was still as black as ink. The crimson runes that used to cover it were no longer visible.
zhēng kāi yǎn móu ， lǐ miàn yǐn yǐn yǒu jīng máng shǎn guò ， ér tā de jìng jiè ， jū rán yǐ dào dá le chū qī de dǐng fēng 。
睁开眼眸，里面隐隐有精芒闪过，而他的境界，居然已到达了初期的顶峰。
Opening his eyes, a faint glint of brilliance could be seen within them, and his realm had reached the peak of the initial stage.
bú yào xiǎo kàn ， zhè yǐ shì yì wài zhī xǐ ， ràng lín xuān xīn xǐ yǐ jí 。
不要小看，这已是意外之喜，让林轩欣喜以极。
Don't underestimate this; it's an unexpected joy, making Lin Xuan extremely happy.
yào zhī dào mó yīng nǎi shì qǔ qiǎo zhī wù ， běn shēn de jìng jiè shì jiè yú yuán yīng yǔ níng dān qī dǐng fēng jiān de yí gè tè shū cún zài 。
要知道魔婴乃是取巧之物，本身的境界是介于元婴与凝丹期顶峰间的一个特殊存在。
The demon infant was a cleverly obtained item. Its original realm was between the元婴期 (Yīnyīngqí) and the top of the 凝丹期 (Níndānqí), a special existence in itself.
rú jīn tā bù jǐn jiě chú le yǐn huàn ， hái jìn jí dào yuán yīng chū qī dǐng diǎn ， duì yú lín xuān lái shuō ， dāng rán shì shǐ liào wèi jí 。
如今他不仅解除了隐患，还晋级到元婴初期顶点，对于林轩来说，当然是始料未及。
Not only had he eliminated its隐患, but Lin Xuan didn't need to hide anything. He recounted the details of what happened.
kǔ méi yǒu bái chī ， mó yīng jìn jí ， tā běn shēn de shén tōng fǎ lì ， zì rán yě huì biàn dé yuè níng hòu ， zhè shì yí gè shuǐ zhǎng chuán gāo de wèn tí 。
苦没有白吃，魔婴晋级，他本身的神通法力，自然也会变得越凝厚，这是一个水涨船高的问题。
Balancing both good and evil cultivation techniques, this secret technique was no less powerful than the second元婴. The two women's mouths widened as they listened, almost thinking that Lin Xuan was exaggerating his abilities.
bù guò suī rán jìn jí chéng gōng le ， mó yīng de liǎn shàng ， què mǎn shì pí juàn zhī sè ， sōu de cóng tiān líng gài mò rù shēn tǐ ， huí dào dān tián qì hǎi qù hǎo hǎo xiū xī 。
不过虽然晋级成功了，魔婴的脸上，却满是疲倦之色，嗖的从天灵盖没入身体，回到丹田气海去好好休息。
"Brother Lin, you practice the orthodox sect’s arts but also know how to control corpses, which is a dark art. This explains everything."
“ yán qián ”
“严钱”
"Yes, the dual元婴 technique finally makes sense to me. When Master Sister was still at the中期 (Zhōngqī) of the元婴 stage during our time on Cloud Ridge Mountain, why could her powers catch up with those of major cultivators?"
bái guāng yī shǎn ， xiāng fēng pǔ miàn ， yuè ér yǐ fēi dào le shēn qián ， zhè jǐ shí tiān xiǎo yā tou zài yī páng kě shì kàn dé xīn jīng dǎn zhàn 。
白光一闪，香风朴面，月儿已飞到了身前，这几十天小丫头在一旁可是看得心惊胆战。
The admiration on Wu Yun'er's face deepened as she finally understood a long-standing mystery.
zhè jì liàn mó yīng de fāng fǎ yě tài tòng kǔ le yì diǎn ， ràng páng guān zhě dōu xīn zhōng pà pà ， yě bù zhī dào shào yé shēn chù qí zhōng ， shì yǐ zěn yàng jiān qiáng de yì zhì ， zuì zhōng cái chēng guò a 。
这祭炼魔婴的方法也太痛苦了一点，让旁观者都心中怕怕，也不知道少爷身处其中，是以怎样坚强的意志，最终才撑过啊。
Lin Xuan and the two women chatted for a while. Then, Wu Yun'er suddenly said softly, "Master Brother, there is something I want to say but am not sure if it’s appropriate."
“ shào yé ， nǐ yǒu méi yǒu shì ？” xiǎo yā tou de liǎn shàng ， chōng mǎn le guān xīn zhī sè 。
“少爷，你有没有事？”小丫头的脸上，充满了关心之色。
"What is it?"
“ mí shuō ne ， mó yīng de yǐn huàn yǐ jīng jiě chú ， shào yé wǒ dāng rán shì hǎo dé bù néng zài hǎo le lín xuān wēi xiào zhe shuō 。
“弥说呢，魔婴的隐患已经解除，少爷我当然是好得不能再好了林轩微笑着说。
"Master recently has been suffering from poison attacks more frequently. If this continues, it won't be good. Do you think..."
tā yě kàn chū yuè ér liǎn shàng de dān xīn ， suǒ yǐ gù yì jiǎng dé bǐ jiào yōu mò ， dāng rán ， shì shí yě shì rú cǐ ， nán áo de shì jì liàn guò chéng ， rú jīn shǒu dé yún kāi jiàn yuè lǎng ， zhǐ shì gǎn jué yǒu diǎn pí lèi bà le 。
他也看出月儿脸上的担心，所以故意讲得比较幽默，当然，事实也是如此，难熬的是祭炼过程，如今守得云开见月朗，只是感觉有点疲累罢了。
"Don't worry; I have a lead on the antidote for Sister Qinxin's poison. I will fetch it for her. But now isn't the right time, so don't rush."
zhǔ pú èr rén yòu shuō le yī huì er xīn lǐ huà xiǎo yā tou zhōng yú jiāng xuán zhe de xīn fàng xià 。
主仆二人又说了一会儿心里话小丫头终于将悬着的心放下。
"Ah, that makes sense."
“ duì le ， shào yé ， mó yīng zěn me jì liàn dé zhè me kuài ， cái guò qù le yí gè yuè duō yì diǎn 。”
“对了，少爷，魔婴怎么祭炼得这么快，才过去了一个月多一点。”
Wu Yun'er breathed a sigh of relief, while Qinxin remained silent. Great kindness doesn't require gratitude; but with Lin Xuan’s current abilities, repaying such kindness seemed to be limited to one method. Thinking about it, her face turned slightly red, hoping no one noticed.
“ shén me ， yí gè yuè duō yì diǎn ？” lín xuān yī dāi ， liǎn shàng lù chū jǐ fēn cuò è de biǎo qíng lái ， tā máng zhe dǐ yù tòng kǔ ， duì yú shí jiān jù tǐ liú shì le duō shǎo ， dào shì méi yǒu jīng lì guān zhù ：“ mí méi jì cuò ？”
“什么，一个月多一点？”林轩一呆，脸上露出几分错愕的表情来，他忙着抵御痛苦，对于时间具体流逝了多少，到是没有精力关注：“弥没记错？”
"Speaking of which, this time my retreat was shorter than expected. This extra free time can be used for something else. Wu Yun'er, I have heard that the monks from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect are still at the former headquarters of Bìyún Mountain," Lin Xuan said thoughtfully.
“ zěn me kě néng 。 zhè xiē shí rì yǐ lái ， jiàn shào yé shòu kǔ xiǎo bì kě shì shù zhuó shǒu zhǐ tou yī sān ” méi cuò ， shào yé cóng jì liàn mó yīng kāi shǐ ， yī gòng zhǐ yòng le sān shí liù tiān 。”
“怎么可能。这些时日以来，见少爷受苦小婢可是数着手指头一三”没错，少爷从祭炼魔婴开始，一共只用了三十六天。”
"Master Brother wants to take revenge on us; that’s great! I indeed heard about this. Although it's been several months, those monks haven't left."
“ sān shí liù tiān ？” jiàn yuè ér rú cǐ kěn dìng ， lín xuān shì zhēn de mù dèng kǒu dāi ， gēn jù sōu hún ， dé dào de xiàn suǒ ， xiǎng yào wěn tuǒ de jì liàn mó yīng chéng gōng ， xū shuǎ jiǔ jiǔ bā shí yī tiān ， zì jǐ xuǎn zé sì shí jiǔ rì yǐ yào mào yī xiē xiǎn ， zuì zhōng zěn me cái yòng le sān shí liù tiān ？
“三十六天？”见月儿如此肯定，林轩是真的目瞪口呆，根据搜魂，得到的线索，想要稳妥的祭炼魔婴成功，需耍九九八十一天，自己选择四十九日已要冒一些险，最终怎么才用了三十六天？
"Oh?" Lin Xuan was surprised by this unexpected news: "They didn’t leave? Is there something they want?"
lín xuān sī suǒ le qǐ lái ， zuì yǒu kě néng de jiě shì jiù shì lán sè xīng hǎi ， yòng zhè shén qí de bǎo wù ， tí chún le zhuǎn yīng dān ， dāng yào lì bèi zēng yǐ hòu ， suǒ huā fèi de shí jiān ， zì rán yě jiù dà dà suō duǎn 。
林轩思索了起来，最有可能的解释就是蓝色星海，用这神奇的宝物，提纯了转婴丹，当药力倍增以后，所花费的时间，自然也就大大缩短。
"I’m not sure," Wu Yun'er said apologetically.
lín xuān xīn zhōng qìng xìng bù yǐ ， duì yú lán sè xīng hǎi gèng jiā hào qí ， dāng nián ruò fēi dé dào zhè jiàn bǎo wù ， zì jǐ suī rán tà shàng le xiān tú ， dàn yě jué méi yǒu jī huì zhù jī chéng gōng ， gèng bú yào shuō rú jīn de chéng jiù 。
林轩心中庆幸不已，对于蓝色星海更加好奇，当年若非得到这件宝物，自己虽然踏上了仙途，但也绝没有机会筑基成功，更不要说如今的成就。
"It doesn’t matter; knowing they are still there is enough. Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp look. He and the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect had an unbreakable enmity, but as one of the Seven Great Sects, his current strength was far from enough to take on their main headquarters.
zhǐ kě xī xī de ào mì ， duì yú xiàn zài de zì jǐ 。 hái tài guò shēn ào le yī xiē 。 dàn lín xuān yě bìng bù zháo jí ， tā xiāng xìn zǒng yǒu yī rì ， zì jǐ huì nòng qīng chǔ lán sè xīng hǎi shì zěn me huí shì 。
只可惜牺的奥秘，对于现在的自己。还太过深奥了一些。但林轩也并不着急，他相信总有一日，自己会弄清楚蓝色星海是怎么回事。
However, destroying one of their branches would be satisfying. Moreover, this could also avenge Qinxin and Bìyún Mountain, achieving two goals at once.
“ shào yé ， nǐ zài xiǎng shén me ？” yuè ér de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
“少爷，你在想什么？”月儿的声音传入耳朵。
Wu Yun'er was excited, but Qinxin's expression was mixed with uncertainty. After some hesitation, she finally said, "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Lin, but the rise and fall of cultivation sects is normal. Every year, many families lose their lineages. You don’t need to offend the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect because of us."
duì yú zhè yā tou ， lín xuān zì rán bú huì yǐn mán ， yú shì jiǎng chū xīn zhōng de yí huò 。
对于这丫头，林轩自然不会隐瞒，于是讲出心中的疑惑。
"Master," Wu Yun'er was stunned, and so was Lin Xuan. But after some thought, he understood why Qinxin said this: she was thinking about his safety in Yunzhou, where major cultivators were still too powerful to attract such a sect.
yuè ér de liǎn shàng tóng yàng lù chū gǎn xìng qù zhī sè ， gǎi tiān wèn wèn xiǎo táo hǎo le ， nà yā tou yě xǔ huì zhī dào yī xiē xiàn suǒ ， jiù bù zhī dào tā shén me shí hòu cái néng xǐng lái le 。
月儿的脸上同样露出感兴趣之色，改天问问小桃好了，那丫头也许会知道一些线索，就不知道她什么时候才能醒来了。
Lady Ranyan’s legend was known to Qinxin; she didn’t want Lin Xuan to be targeted by such an old monster.
bàn gè shí chén yǐ hòu ， zhī ya yī shēng jiàng mén dǎ kāi ， lín xuān huǎn bù cóng gé lóu zhōng zǒu le chū lái 。
半个时辰以后，吱呀一声将门打开，林轩缓步从阁楼中走了出来。
Unfortunately for Qinxin, Lin Xuan had no other choice. After all the changes he experienced, his enmity with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect was unbreakable. It would either be him or them.
ōu yáng qín xīn yǔ wǔ yún ér de jū suǒ bù guò zài qī bā zhàng yuǎn chù ， zì rán mǎ shàng jiù yǒu gǎn yīng le ， shī tú liǎ dōu yíng le shàng lái 。
欧阳琴心与武云儿的居所不过在七八丈远处，自然马上就有感应了，师徒俩都迎了上来。
"Qin, I understand your kindness, but there is a history of grudges between us. So you don’t need to persuade me," Lin Xuan said slowly, his eyes filled with a hint of killing intent.
“ yún ér gōng xǐ shī bó chū guān wǔ yún ér yíng yíng yī fú ， jiàn lín xuān píng ān wú shì ， yā tou de liǎn shàng mǎn shì yóu zhōng de xǐ sè 。
“云儿恭喜师伯出关武云儿盈盈一福，见林轩平安无事，丫头的脸上满是由衷的喜色。
Lin Xuan and the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect had an unbreakable enmity; he would eventually extract their souls and spirits one by one.
, The spirit of the demon infant was weak and the amount of essence qi it had wasn't much. But the top-grade crystal stones were indeed different from ordinary ones. After some hesitation, Lin Xuan still put them away in his storage bag.
