lín xuān diǎn diǎn tóu ， zì rán bú huì yǔ ài qī kè qì ， shēn shǒu qǔ guò ， jiāng cǐ bǎo fàng rù le huái lǐ 。
林轩点点头，自然不会与爱妻客气，伸手取过，将此宝放入了怀里。
Lin Xian felt somewhat surprised as he scanned the surroundings. He had originally thought that besides himself and Qinyin, only the Vajra Hall's seat of the Bodhi Seat would be here in the Indeterminate River. Unexpectedly, what met his eyes was an old man.
xiǎo luó tiān fǎ xiàng ， zhào qín xīn suǒ shuō ， nǎi shì mó fǎng líng jiè mǒu wèi dà néng qián bèi de mì shù ， wēi lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， dàn lín xuān zuì kàn zhòng de ， nǎi shì cǐ shù duì yú yuán yīng yǔ ròu shēn ， dōu yǒu níng liàn de xiào guǒ ， rú cǐ yǒu yòng de shén tōng ， lín xuān zì rán dà wèi xīn dòng 。
小罗天法相，照琴心所说，乃是模仿灵界某位大能前辈的秘术，威力非同小可，但林轩最看重的，乃是此术对于元婴与肉身，都有凝炼的效果，如此有用的神通，林轩自然大为心动。
The stranger’s face was unfamiliar; there was no trace of recognition, but he had reached late-stage Immortal Nurturing. Where did this person come from?
děng xián xiá zhī yú ， zì rán yào hǎo hǎo xiū xí yī fān dì 。
等闲暇之余，自然要好好修习一番地。
Lin Xian felt a shock as he thought about it. Although the target wasn’t what he expected, his intent to kill remained unchanged. He didn't know the other party's purpose, and for Qinyin’s successful cultivation, the Mephistopheles Divine Blood must be obtained. There was no room for leniency.
“ fū jūn ， suī rán zhè yàng shuō kě néng yǒu diǎn duō yú ， dàn qiè shēn hái shì yào tí xǐng yī jù ， cǐ shén tōng miào zé miào yǐ ， dàn duì běn tǐ de fù dān què tài dà le xiē ， zài jìn jiē lí hé qī yǐ qián ， kě yǐ xiū liàn ， dàn què bù néng yòng yú duì dí 。”
“夫君，虽然这样说可能有点多余，但妾身还是要提醒一句，此神通妙则妙矣，但对本体的负担却太大了些，在进阶离合期以前，可以修炼，但却不能用于对敌。”
Without hesitation, Lin Xian landed behind a large stone about a thousand feet away and hid himself.
“ hē hē ， wèi fū xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， qín xīn $$; bù yòng guò yú dān xīn shén me 。”
“呵呵，为夫心中有数，琴心$$;不用过于担心什么。”
This person was none other than the Elder Monster of Tianqiao Sect, Jiang Laozhuang.
lín xuān wēi xiào zhe kāi kǒu le ， ōu yáng zhè cì chà diǎn yǔn luò ， lín xuān dāng rán zhī dào xiǎo luó tiān fǎ xiàng de bì duān fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
林轩微笑着开口了，欧阳这次差点陨落，林轩当然知道小罗天法相的弊端非同小可。
The same sect fighting each other—this masked cultivator, although also a ruthless figure, chose to self-destruct when she saw that there was no hope. She preferred to die rather than let the other party have it easy.
bù guò huà shuō huí lái ， zì jǐ yě bú shì pǔ tōng de yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， shuāng yīng yī dān bú yòng shuō ， xiū xí fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué hòu ， ròu shēn yě bǐ yì bān xiū shì qiáng hèng dé duō ， wèi bì bù gǎn shī zhǎn cǐ shén tōng de 。
不过话说回来，自己也不是普通的元婴期修仙者，双婴一丹不用说，修习凤舞九天诀后，肉身也比一般修士强横得多，未必不敢施展此神通的。
However, as an Immortal Nurturing late-stage cultivator, Jiang Laozhuang’s abilities were truly formidable. He managed to escape with his life by promptly using defensive treasures, but he still suffered some injuries. The old monster was both angry and upset. Since the masked woman had chosen self-destruction, even her physical body and soul were completely annihilated.
dāng rán ， yǐ shàng jǐn jǐn shì cāi cè ， jù tǐ qíng kuàng rú hé ， hái yào děng dài cǐ gōng fǎ cān wù yǐ hòu ， zài jié hé běn shēn qíng kuàng ， suí hòu cái néng xià dìng lùn de 。
当然，以上仅仅是猜测，具体情况如何，还要等待此功法参悟以后，再结合本身情况，随后才能下定论的。
After feeling depressed, Jiang Laozhuang decided to give up. Fortunately, his injuries weren’t severe. He wanted to find a secluded place for a brief rest but unexpectedly encountered numerous ghosts and spirits attacking him from the river.
zhè xiē bù jí ， jiē xià qù ， zì jǐ yào zuò de shì qíng hái hěn duō ， dāng rán ， mù qián yào zuò de ， shì xún zhǎo chū kǒu 。
这些不急，接下去，自己要做的事情还很多，当然，目前要做的，是寻找出口。
They were truly reckless! Although there were many of them, he was an Immortal Nurturing late-stage cultivator. Jiang Laozhuang’s face showed anger as he waved his sleeves and sent out a blue light that transformed into a giant hand with sparks flashing on its surface. It seemed that the old monster practiced a lightning attribute cultivation technique.
zhì yú xiū luó shén xuè ， jì rán néng ràng yuè ér jié yīng chéng gōng ， jiù suàn qián miàn yǒu dāo shān huǒ hǎi ， zì jǐ yě yào qǔ dào shǒu 。
至于修罗神血，既然能让月儿结婴成功，就算前面有刀山火海，自己也要取到手。
However, those low-grade ghosts ignored him and continued their frenzied attacks.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn dòng ， rán ér lín xuān shén shí yī jiù quán lì fàng chū ， sī háo méi yǒu xiè dài zhī chù 。
脑海中念头转动，然而林轩神识依旧全力放出，丝毫没有懈怠之处。
Lin Xian frowned slightly, feeling somewhat puzzled. He sensed something was amiss…
“ yí ？” tū rán ， lín xuān yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī lǚ yì sè ， dùn guāng yī dù ， zài yuán dì tíng le xià lái 。“ fū jūn ， zěn me le ?”
“咦？”突然，林轩眼中闪过一缕异色，遁光一渡，在原地停了下来。“夫君，怎么了?”
But he couldn’t put his finger on exactly what it was.
ōu yáng suī rán yě shì yuán yīng qī ， dàn chū qī yǔ hòu qī xiū shì jiān shén shí de chā jù ， què bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ ， tā bìng wèi xiàn yǒu hé bù tuǒ ， qiào liǎn shàng bù yóu lù chū xún wèn zhī sè 。
欧阳虽然也是元婴期，但初期与后期修士间神识的差距，却不可同日而语，她并未现有何不妥，俏脸上不由露出询问之色。
"Master, why are there no high-stage ghostly entities in this area?"
“ qián fāng yuē wǔ bǎi lǐ yuǎn ， yǒu jù liè de líng lì bō dòng ， cóng shǔ xìng fēn xī ， yī fāng yīng gāi shì shù yǐ bǎi jì de yīn hún guǐ wù ， lìng wài yī fāng zé shì yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū xiān zhě 。” lín xuān yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， chén yín zhe kāi kǒu le 。
“前方约五百里远，有剧烈的灵力波动，从属性分析，一方应该是数以百计的阴魂鬼物，另外一方则是元婴后期的大修仙者。”林轩以手抚额，沉吟着开口了。
Moon’s voice entered his ears. The young girl’s words reminded Lin Xian that according to common sense, such a large number of spirits should be controlled by high-stage ghosts.
“ dà xiū xiān zhě ， nán dào shì wàn fú zōng de pú tí yuàn zuò ？” qín xīn yī dāi ， suí hòu zhēn mù zhōng shǎn guò shēn qiè de hèn yì lái 。
“大修仙者，难道是万佛宗的菩提院座？”琴心一呆，随后真目中闪过深切的恨意来。
Lin Xian’s thoughts raced as he quietly released his divine sense…
“ bù qīng chǔ ， dàn shí yǒu ** yīng gāi méi cuò 。”
“不清楚，但十有**应该没错。”
Not far ahead, Jiang Laozhuang cast a spell and two giant hands attacked the ghostly entities.
lín xuān rú cǐ zhè bān de shuō ， zhēn shì tà pò tiě xié yuán mì chù ， dé lái quán bù fèi gōng fu ， lín xuān mào xiǎn jìn rù zhè guǐ yì de dì dòng ， zuì chū de mù dì biàn shì xiǎng yào jiāng zhè jiā huo qù chú 。
林轩如此这般的说，真是踏破铁鞋元觅处，得来全不费工夫，林轩冒险进入这诡异的地洞，最初的目的便是想要将这家伙去除。
Although the spirits seemed fierce, their strength was worlds apart. Even with such a large number, they couldn’t make up for this significant gap. Howls of ghosts filled the air, and in no time, nearly a thousand ghosts were completely crushed into powder.
yì fāng miàn ， shì wèi bì yún shān bào chóu ， bù guò zuì zhǔ yào de ， hái shì qiǎng bǎo ， zhè méi shén me bù hǎo yì sī jiǎng ， xiū xiān jiè ruò ròu qiáng shí ， shā rén qiǎng bǎo nǎi shì zuì zhèng cháng bù guò de shì 。
一方面，是为碧云山报仇，不过最主要的，还是抢宝，这没什么不好意思讲，修仙界弱肉强食，杀人抢宝乃是最正常不过的事。
The surroundings fell silent again.
yǐ lín xuān shēn jiā zhī fēng hòu ， bié de bǎo wù huò xǔ kě yǐ bù fàng zài yǎn zhōng ， bù guò tōng tiān líng bǎo me …… chuí xián yù dī shì zuì hǎo de xíng róng 。
以林轩身家之丰厚，别的宝物或许可以不放在眼中，不过通天灵宝么……垂涎欲滴是最好的形容。
Lin Xian felt something was amiss, so he didn’t rush to act but planned to observe before deciding his next move. Unexpectedly, Jiang Laozhuang turned around.
bào chóu ， duó bǎo ， yī jiàn shuāng diāo ， zhè yàng de hǎo shì bù qù zuò ， huì bèi tiān dǎ léi bì de 。
报仇，夺宝，一箭双雕，这样的好事不去做，会被天打雷璧的。
"Friend, you’ve been watching from the side for so long; why not reveal yourself? Are you really waiting for me to make the first move?"
rú jīn duì fāng yòu bèi guǐ wù chán zhù ， suī rán yǐ tā dà xiū shì de shén tōng ， yīng gāi wěn zhàn shàng fēng ， dàn bù guǎn rú hé ， duì zì jǐ lái shuō ， zhè jī huì jué bù róng cuò gǎn ， kě yǐ duǒ zài àn chù qiāo qiāo tōu xí de 。
如今对方又被鬼物缠住，虽然以他大修士的神通，应该稳占上风，但不管如何，对自己来说，这机会绝不容错赶，可以躲在暗处悄悄偷袭的。
He had discovered him?
niàn jí zhì cǐ ， lín xuān nǎ lǐ hái yǒu yóu yù ：“ qín xīn ， wèi fū xiān shì yī bù ， yī huì er wǒ yǔ tā duì shàng yǐ hòu ，$$; zài màn màn guò lái ， zhù wǒ yī bì zhī lì ， liǎng miàn jiā jī 。”
念及至此，林轩哪里还有犹豫：“琴心，为夫先是一步，一会儿我与他对上以后，$$;再慢慢过来，助我一臂之力，两面夹击。”
Lin Xian was momentarily stunned, then a faint smile appeared on his lips. It seemed he had underestimated himself. He relied too much on his extensive experience and superior cultivation and magical power compared to other cultivators of the same stage. But he didn’t realize that reaching late-stage Immortal Nurturing required enduring countless trials and tribulations. Not many possessed hidden techniques, so one shouldn’t underestimate heroes from all over the world.
lín xuān zhī suǒ yǐ zuò chū zhè yàng de ān pái ， shì yīn wèi xiǎng yào tōu xí ， bì bù néng ràng duì fāng xiàn zì jǐ de zōng jì ， ōu yáng bù guò yuán yīng chū qī ， jí shǐ shī zhǎn yǐn nì zhī shù ， xiǎng yào duǒ guò dà xiū shì shén shí tàn suǒ ， jī huì yě bù suàn duō 。
林轩之所以做出这样的安排，是因为想要偷袭，必不能让对方现自己的踪迹，欧阳不过元婴初期，即使施展隐匿之术，想要躲过大修士神识探索，机会也不算多。
Since his presence had been discovered, hiding further was meaningless. Although surprised by Jiang Laozhuang’s ability to spot him, Lin Xian wasn’t afraid. He floated into the air as green light enveloped him.
rú cǐ yī lái ， hái bù rú ràng ài qī zàn huǎn yī bù ， zì jǐ zhǐ yào yǔ kōng míng jiāo shàng shǒu ， nà lǎo guài wù jiù xiū xiǎng pǎo diào ， dào shí hòu qín xīn bèi bù bèi tā xiàn dōu wú fáng 。
如此一来，还不如让爱妻暂缓一步，自己只要与空明交上手，那老怪物就休想跑掉，到时候琴心被不被他现都无妨。
"Is it you?"
zhèng dà guāng míng de yǐ zhòng líng guǎ ， fū qī lián shǒu qī fù tā yī rén le 。
正大光明的以众凌寡，夫妻联手欺负他一人了。
Upon seeing Lin Xian's face clearly, Jiang Laozhuang showed obvious surprise on his face. Lin Xian didn't feel surprised by this; the Vajra Hall’s pursuit order hadn't been withdrawn yet, and there weren’t many Immortal Nurturing cultivators in Yunzhou who wouldn’t recognize him.
“ ń ， qiè shēn xiǎo de 。”
“嗯，妾身晓得。”
"You… how did you end up here?"
ōu yáng wēn róu de diǎn le diǎn zhēn ， qí shí jiù běn xìng lái shuō ， cǐ nǚ yě shì xīn gāo qì ào ， bù guò xīn xìng zú ， bìng bù dài biǎo yù shì bù dòng nǎo ， tīng zhàng fū zhè yàng ān pái ， tā yě míng bái lín xuān de dǎ suàn ， zì jǐ zhè diǎn xiū wèi ， rú guǒ gēn shàng qù ， zhǐ néng bān mén nòng fǔ ， jiāng fū jūn de hǎo shì huài le 。
欧阳温柔的点了点臻，其实就本性来说，此女也是心高气傲，不过心性足，并不代表遇事不动脑，听丈夫这样安排，她也明白林轩的打算，自己这点修为，如果跟上去，只能班门弄斧，将夫君的好事坏了。
Jiang Laozhuang released his divine sense and scanned Lin Xian. His expression turned extremely ugly as he realized that the other party had advanced to late-stage Immortal Nurturing.
zì jǐ rú jīn ， kě bú shì gū fāng zì shǎng de ōu yáng xiān zi ， jì rán jià zuò rén fù ， dāng rán jiù bù néng wàn shì jiē suí zhe zì jǐ de xìng zi 。
自己如今，可不是孤芳自赏的欧阳仙子，既然嫁做人妇，当然就不能万事皆随着自己的性子。
"Why should I tell you?"
zhè diǎn dào lǐ ， ōu yáng xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， suǒ yǐ bú huì bù mǎn shén me ， zhǐ shì hòu miàn de suì yuè lǐ ， zì jǐ dé jiā bèi nǔ lì ， kě bù néng bèi fū jūn là xià tài yuǎn dì 。
这点道理，欧阳心中有数，所以不会不满什么，只是后面的岁月里，自己得加倍努力，可不能被夫君落下太远地。
"Fine, indeed a proud young man. But when the Vajra Hall issued the pursuit order, you were still in middle-stage Immortal Nurturing. Although it’s unclear how you managed to advance so quickly, this time can’t be too long," Jiang Laozhuang said coldly.
lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu ， suí hòu shuāng shǒu qīng wò ， hún shēn de qì xī zhú jiàn jiǎn ruò ， zuì hòu jìng ruò yǒu rú wú ， shèn zhì lián xīn tiào yǔ xuè yè de liú dōu jiǎn huǎn le ， ōu yáng de liǎn shàng lù chū hài rán zhī sè ， tā néng kàn jiàn zhàng fū jiù zhàn zài zì jǐ miàn qián ， kě shén shí sǎo guò ， què kōng kōng rú yě 。
林轩点了点头，随后双手轻握，浑身的气息逐渐减弱，最后竟若有如无，甚至连心跳与血液的流都减缓了，欧阳的脸上露出骇然之色，她能看见丈夫就站在自己面前，可神识扫过，却空空如也。
"Then what?" Lin Xian replied coldly.
liǎn qì shù ， yǐn nì zhī fǎ ， zhè zài xiū xiān jiè ， dōu shì liú chuán hěn guǎng de gōng fǎ ， bié shuō yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， jiù suàn zhǎo yī míng zhù jī qī dì zǐ ， shí yǒu ** yě xué guò 。
敛气术，隐匿之法，这在修仙界，都是流传很广的功法，别说元婴期修仙者，就算找一名筑基期弟子，十有**也学过。
"What then?" Jiang Laozhuang's face showed a sinister expression: "Even though we are both late-stage cultivators, I have been in late-stage Immortal Nurturing for over a hundred years. You haven’t stabilized your realm and think you can match me. Once I take your head, the Vajra Hall will surely reward me generously."
kě néng shī zhǎn dào fū jūn zhè zhǒng chéng dù ， què shì wén suǒ wèi wén de ， zhàn zài zì jǐ miàn qián 「 yě gǎn yìng bú dào ， chú le tā ， yě xǔ zhǐ yǒu nà xiē chuán shuō zhōng de lí hé qī lǎo guài wù ， kě néng yǒu zhè yàng de shén tōng fǎ lì le 。
可能施展到夫君这种程度，却是闻所未闻的，站在自己面前「也感应不到，除了他，也许只有那些传说中的离合期老怪物，可能有这样的神通法力了。
This old monster could kill his fellow sectmate, Jiang Laozhuang was undoubtedly ruthless. Seeing Lin Xian, he had already developed a killing intent; it wasn't just because of the pursuit order but to compete for this place's treasures.
ōu yáng měi mù zhōng yì cǎi lián lián ， nǎ ge nǚ zǐ bù xī wàng zì jǐ de zhàng fū shì liǎo bù qǐ de rén wù ， zhè yì diǎn ， lián yuán yīng qī nǚ xiū yě bù néng miǎn sú ， bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè ， lín xuān què bìng méi yǒu qù zhù yì ài qī shén qíng de ， dàn dàn de shuō le yī jù ：“ wǒ qù le 。”
欧阳美目中异彩连连，哪个女子不希望自己的丈夫是了不起的人物，这一点，连元婴期女修也不能免俗，不过此时此刻，林轩却并没有去注意爱妻神情的，淡淡的说了一句：“我去了。”
He didn’t know that this was the Indeterminate River or heard about the Mephistopheles Divine Blood. But by chance, he received news that the Vajra Hall occupied Red Cloud Valley and had valuable treasures. Unfortunately, this fellow still didn't realize that he had already entered another space through the spatial vortex.
suí hòu shēn shàng líng guāng shǎn guò ， shēn yǐng yě biàn dé zhú jiàn mó hú ， huà wèi yī dào huī méng méng ， bù qǐ yǎn de jīng hóng ， fēng chí diàn ， xiàng tiān biān fēi lüè ér qù le 。
随后身上灵光闪过，身影也变得逐渐模糊，化为一道灰蒙蒙，不起眼的惊虹，风驰电，像天边飞掠而去了。
As one of the Four Greats of the Vajra Hall, Qingxuan couldn’t defeat a middle-stage Immortal Nurturing cultivator and lost his physical body in the process. Such a loss to his reputation was naturally not mentioned in the pursuit order; instead, he found an excuse to cover it up.
lìng yī biān 。 hōng ! yī běn qí jiǔ tóu lǎo zǔ gèng shì lí hé qī yāo zú ， zhōng yú dǐ dǎng bú zhù ， mù xiè fēn fēi zhī zhōng ， yīn qì xiāo róng ， bēng kuì tān tā diào le 。
另一边。轰!一本其九头老祖更是离合期妖族，终于抵挡不住，木屑纷飞之中，阴气消融，崩溃坍塌掉了。
Otherwise, knowing Lin Xian’s abilities were so extraordinary, Jiang Laozhuang wouldn’t dare challenge him even if he had treasures on him. After all, the path of cultivation was fraught with difficulties. From a beginner at the灵动期 (flexible period) stage to a dominant late-stage Immortal Nurturing cultivator, who didn't bully the weak and fear the powerful? Challenging someone stronger than you would be foolish unless your mind had been kicked by a donkey.
Lin Xian felt somewhat surprised as he scanned the surroundings. He had originally thought that besides himself and Qinyin, only the Vajra Hall's seat of the Bodhi Seat would be here in the Indeterminate River. Unexpectedly, what met his eyes was an old man.
