bù zhǐ shì léi jiàn mén dì zǐ , jī hū fù jìn suǒ yǒu de xiū shì dōu jiāng zhù yì lì jí zhōng dào le zhè lǐ , bù shǎo rén gèng lù chū xìng zāi lè huò de biǎo qíng 。
不止是雷剑门弟子,几乎附近所有的修士都将注意力集中到了这里,不少人更露出幸灾乐祸的表情。
Not just the disciples of Lightning Sword Sect, but almost all cultivators in the vicinity had their attention focused on this place. Many even wore expressions of schadenfreude.
“ hē hē , jǐn jǐn shì yì diǎn xiǎo wù huì ér yǐ , duō xiè xú xiōng de hǎo yì , xiǎo dì zì jǐ néng chǔ lǐ 。” lín xuān chén yín le yī xià , suí jí miàn sè bù biàn de shuō chū zhè jù huà 。
“呵呵,仅仅是一点小误会而已,多谢徐兄的好意,小弟自己能处理。”林轩沉吟了一下,随即面色不变的说出这句话。
"Haha, it's merely a small misunderstanding. Thank Brother Xu for your kindness; I can handle it myself," Lin Xuan pondered for a moment before speaking with an unchanged expression.
léi jiàn mén de dì zǐ sōng le kǒu qì , ér léi ào de liǎn shàng gèng shì lù chū yī fù jì qìng xìng yòu bù shě de gǔ guài biǎo qíng 。
雷剑门的弟子松了口气,而雷傲的脸上更是露出一副既庆幸又不舍的古怪表情。
The disciples of Lightning Sword Sect heaved a sigh of relief. On the other hand, there was a strange and mixed look on Ma傲's face—both relieved and reluctant.
“ jì rú cǐ , nà yú xiōng yě jiù bù duō shì le , rú guǒ xián dì yǒu shén me yòng dé dào xú mǒu de dì fāng , jǐn guǎn kāi kǒu , qiān wàn bú yào kè qì 。”
“既如此,那愚兄也就不多事了,如果贤弟有什么用得到徐某的地方,尽管开口,千万不要客气。”
"If that's so, then this brother won't trouble you any further. If Brother Xian needs anything from me in the future, just speak up; I mustn't be too polite."
xú fēng shuō dào zhè lǐ , yǒu yì wú yì de piǎo le yī yǎn léi ào , hòu zhě lián máng dī xià tou , bù gǎn yǔ tā de mù guāng xiāng chù 。
徐风说到这里,有意无意的瞟了一眼雷傲,后者连忙低下头,不敢与他的目光相触。
Xu Feng glanced at Ma傲 with an intentional glance as he spoke. The latter hurriedly lowered his head, avoiding eye contact.
“ hē hē , xú xiōng fàng xīn , zài wǒ xīn lǐ , yì zhí jiāng nǐ dāng péng yǒu 。”
“呵呵,徐兄放心,在我心里,一直将你当朋友。”
"Haha, Brother Xu can rest assured. In my heart, you've always been a friend to me," Lin Xuan said.
lín xuān zhè jù huà gāng chū kǒu , jiù kàn jiàn páng biān de xiǎo gū niáng tiào qǐ lái le :“ gē gē , lín dà gē , nǐ men kàn 。”
林轩这句话刚出口,就看见旁边的小姑娘跳起来了:“哥哥,林大哥,你们看。”
Just as these words left his mouth, the young girl beside him jumped up: "Brother, Lin Senior, look!"
shùn zhe tā shǒu zhǐ de fāng xiàng wàng qù , zhǐ jiàn zài yǐn xiān qiáo de lìng yī biān , qí guāng huán rào , xiān qì yīn yūn , shù shí gè bì yún shān dì zǐ piāo rán ér lái , wéi shǒu de shì yī wèi xū fà jiē bái de lǎo zhě , dà yuē yǒu qī shí zuǒ yòu , què háo wú fán rén de lǎo tài lóng zhōng , jīng shén jué shuò , gǒng le gǒng shǒu :“ bù hǎo yì sī , ràng gè wèi tóng dào jiǔ děng le , zài xià luó wēi , nǎi shì bì yún shān jiē yǐn wài kè de zhí shì , zhū wèi qǐng gēn wǒ lái 。”
顺着她手指的方向望去,只见在引仙桥的另一边,奇光环绕,仙气氤氲,数十个碧云山弟子飘然而来,为首的是一位须发皆白的老者,大约有七十左右,却毫无凡人的老态龙钟,精神矍铄,拱了拱手:“不好意思,让各位同道久等了,在下罗威,乃是碧云山接引外客的执事,诸位请跟我来。”
Following her finger, everyone saw that on the other side of Immortal Inducing Bridge, there was a strange light surrounding it, with a faint aura of immortality. Dozens of disciples from Jade Cloud Mountain floated over. Leading them was an elderly man with white hair and beard, around seventy years old but without any signs of old age, his spirit vibrant as he bowed: "Sorry for keeping everyone waiting. I am Luo Wei, the attendant responsible for receiving guests at Jade Cloud Mountain. Please follow me."
cǐ lǎo zhě nǎi shì zhù jī zhōng qī de xiū wèi 。
此老者乃是筑基中期的修为。
Luo Wei's cultivation level was mid-Basement Establishment.
yóu cǐ yě kě yǐ kàn chū sān jù tóu de shí lì , yí gè fù zé zá wù de nèi mén dì zǐ , xiū wèi jiù bù xùn sè yú èr sān liú mén pài de jīng yīng le 。
由此也可以看出三巨头的实力,一个负责杂务的内门弟子,修为就不逊色于二三流门派的精英了。
This also showed the strength of the three major sects; an inner door disciple in charge of miscellaneous tasks had a cultivation level that surpassed many elites from second and third-rate sects.
duì yú bì yún shān lái shuō , zhù jī qī xiū shì bìng bù xī qí 。
对于碧云山来说,筑基期修士并不稀奇。
For Jade Cloud Mountain, Basement Establishment cultivators were not rare.
“ dào yǒu kè qì le 。”
“道友客气了。”
"Friend, you're too kind,"
yǐn xiān qiáo shàng de zhòng rén shuō le yī xiē chǎng miàn shàng de yán yǔ , rán hòu biàn gēn zhe luó wēi , xiàng zhe qiáo de lìng yī duàn zǒu qù 。
引仙桥上的众人说了一些场面上的言语,然后便跟着罗威,向着桥的另一段走去。
The crowd on Immortal Inducing Bridge exchanged some polite words before following Luo Wei toward the other end of the bridge.
yī zuò měi lì de huā yuán chū xiàn zài yǎn qián 。
一座美丽的花园出现在眼前。
A beautiful garden appeared in front of them.
gè zhǒng qí huā yì cǎo jìng xiāng kāi fàng , měi bù shèng shōu 。
各种奇花异草竞相开放,美不胜收。
Various exotic flowers and plants bloomed, a feast for the eyes. But what caught everyone's attention was at the center of the garden—a large teleportation array.
bù guò zuì yǐn rén zhǔ mù de shì zài huā yuán de zhōng yāng , yǒu zhè yí gè jù dà dì chuán sòng zhèn 。
不过最引人瞩目的是在花园的中央,有这一个巨大地传送阵。
Although Lin Xuan hadn't been cultivating long, he had several years under his belt. Compared to peers, he could be considered well-traveled.
lín xuān xiū xiān de shí jiān suī rán suàn bù shàng zhǎng , dàn yě yǒu shù nián zhī jiǔ , ér qiě yǔ tóng jiē xiū shì xiāng bǐ 。 yě kě yǐ shuō dé shàng shì jiàn duō shí guǎng 。
林轩修仙的时间虽然算不上长,但也有数年之久,而且与同阶修士相比。也可以说得上是见多识广。
According to his knowledge, ordinary teleportation arrays could only transport a few people, but one that could carry over a hundred was unheard of. Luo Wei's words seemed polite, but they carried an air of defiance and warning. Lin Xuan noticed that while the wandering cultivators had neutral expressions, those from sects and families looked uncomfortable. Even Xu Feng's gaze turned cold.
jù tā suǒ zhī , yì bān de chuán sòng zhèn zhǐ néng chuán sòng shù rén , xiàng zhè yàng néng tóng shí chéng zài bǎi rén yǐ shàng de chuán sòng zhèn wén suǒ wèi wén 。
据他所知,一般的传送阵只能传送数人,像这样能同时承载百人以上的传送阵闻所未闻。
Only Lin Xuan remained calm, pretending not to understand.
bù zhǐ shì lín xuān , tóng lái de xiū shì , shí zhī ** dōu lù chū zhèn jīng de shén sè 。
不止是林轩,同来的修士,十之**都露出震惊的神色。
With various ulterior motives, everyone arrived at the teleportation array. Luo Wei instructed other Jade Cloud Mountain disciples to embed crystals around it before casting a spell on the central point of the array.
“ hē hē , ràng gè wèi dào yǒu jiàn xiào le 。 zhè jù xíng chuán sòng zhèn shì běn pài jǐ wèi jīng shàn zhèn fǎ dì zhǎng lǎo xīn jìn cái yán jiū chū lái , xiǎng wǒ bì yún shān , cháng yǒu wài kè dào fǎng , bǐ rú shuō zhè cì de jié yīng dà huì , cān jiā de tóng dào gèng yǒu shù qiān zhī duō 。 rú guǒ chuán sòng zhèn xiǎo le , jìn chū qǐ bù shì má fán ?”
“呵呵,让各位道友见笑了。这巨型传送阵是本派几位精擅阵法地长老新近才研究出来,想我碧云山,常有外客到访,比如说这次的结婴大会,参加的同道更有数千之多。如果传送阵小了,进出岂不是麻烦?”
A whistling sound filled the air as the array activated, and after a burst of colorful light, everyone disappeared from their original spot.
luó wēi mǎn miàn chūn fēng de jiè shào , rán ér yán yǔ què pǒ wèi zì ào , lái dào zhè lǐ de xiū shì méi yǒu chǔn rén , qǐ huì tīng bù chū tā dì yán wài zhī yì 。
罗威满面春风的介绍,然而言语却颇为自傲,来到这里的修士没有蠢人,岂会听不出他地言外之意。
As they gazed upon the beautiful scenery that appeared before them, many faces showed surprise.
xū zhī , huàn yí gè mén pài , qǐ néng yán jiū chū zhè me lì hài de chuán sòng zhèn lái 。 luó wēi cǐ yǔ , kàn shì kè qì , qí shí huái zhe shì wēi jǐng shì zhī yì 。 lín xuān zhù yì dào , sàn xiū men de biǎo qíng hái hǎo , nà xiē mén pài jiā zú de xiū xiān zhě , biǎo qíng jiù xiǎn de bù tài zì rán le , biàn shì páng biān de xú fēng , mù guāng yě lěng le xià lái , bù zhī dào xīn zhōng zài xiǎng xiē shén me 。
须知,换一个门派,岂能研究出这么厉害的传送阵来。罗威此语,看似客气,其实怀着示威警示之意。林轩注意到,散修们的表情还好,那些门派家族的修仙者,表情就显得不太自然了,便是旁边的徐风,目光也冷了下来,不知道心中在想些什么。
---
wéi yǒu lín xuān shén sè rú cháng 。 zhuāng zuò xiàng shì méi yǒu tīng dǒng yī yàng 。
唯有林轩神色如常。装作像是没有听懂一样。
What was Immortal Inducing Land like?
zhòng rén gè huái guǐ tāi , lái dào le chuán sòng zhèn shàng 。 luó wēi zhǐ huī qí tā bì yún shān dì zǐ , zài zhōu wéi xiāng qiàn hǎo jīng shí , rán hòu tā yī dào fǎ jué dǎ dào zhèn yǎn de zhōng yāng 。
众人各怀鬼胎,来到了传送阵上。罗威指挥其他碧云山弟子,在周围镶嵌好晶石,然后他一道法诀打到阵眼的中央。
This place was the best description.
wū wū shēng xiǎng zhōng , chuán sòng zhèn yùn zhuàn le qǐ lái , wǔ cǎi de qí guāng guò hòu , zhòng rén cóng yuán dì xiāo shī le 。
呜呜声响中,传送阵运转了起来,五彩的奇光过后,众人从原地消失了。
Pavilions, terraces, and towers surrounded by birdsong and floral fragrance. Various rare beasts roamed freely at their feet. The thick fog made it feel as if they were standing in a sea of clouds.
wàng zhuó yǎn qián chū xiàn dì měi jǐng , bù shǎo rén liǎn shàng lù chū le jīng è zhī sè 。
望着眼前出现地美景,不少人脸上露出了惊愕之色。
"Friends, we have arrived at our sect's inner door. The Immortal Inducing Conference will be held tomorrow; you can wander around and admire the scenery of Jade Cloud Mountain. Of course, there are some forbidden areas that shouldn't be trespassed upon. I've noted them down on this jade tube scroll," Luo Wei said as he took out a storage bag from his pocket and gently tapped it. Instantly, countless red lights shot out and landed in the hands of each outsider.
rén jiān xiān jìng shì shén me yàng de ?
人间仙境是什么样的?
It was the jade tube scroll with the map of Jade Cloud Mountain.
yǎn qián jiù shì zuì hǎo de miáo shù 。
眼前就是最好的描述。
"If you get tired, you can also rest at the inn. Of course, if you wish to go now, there are other disciples from our sect who will entertain you," Luo Wei said as he bowed: "I have matters to attend to; I'll take my leave."
tíng tái lóu gé , niǎo yǔ huā xiāng 。 gè zhǒng zhēn qín yì shòu zài yǎn qián xián guàng 。 jiǎo xià shì nóng nóng de wù qì , zhàn zài zhè lǐ 。 jiù fǎng fú zhì shēn yú yún hǎi zhōng yī yàng 。
亭台楼阁,鸟语花香。各种珍禽异兽在眼前闲逛。脚下是浓浓的雾气,站在这里。就仿佛置身于云海中一样。
"Lin Senior, let's go sightseeing together!" Xu Ying chirped.
“ gè wèi dào yǒu , wǒ men yǐ jīng lái dào bì pài de nèi mén zhī zhōng , jié yīng dà huì míng tiān cái zhào kāi , gè wèi kě yǐ suí chù zǒu dòng , guān shǎng yī xià wǒ bì yún shān de jǐng sè , dāng rán , yǒu yī xiē jìn dì shì bù néng gòu luàn chuǎng de , wǒ zài zhè yù tǒng jiǎn lǐ dōu biāo míng liǎo 。”
“各位道友,我们已经来到敝派的内门之中,结婴大会明天才召开,各位可以随处走动,观赏一下我碧云山的景色,当然,有一些禁地是不能够乱闯的,我在这玉筒简里都标明了。”
"Yes, Lin Junior Brother, your sect only sent you. If you don't mind, we can travel together for some company,"
luó wēi shuō zhe , cóng huái zhōng tāo chū yí gè chǔ wù dài , qīng qīng yī pāi , dùn shí , wú shù hóng guāng cóng lǐ miàn fēi shè chū lái , luò zài měi yí gè wài lái xiū shì de shǒu shàng 。
罗威说着,从怀中掏出一个储物袋,轻轻一拍,顿时,无数红光从里面飞射出来,落在每一个外来修士的手上。
"Thank you, Miss and Brother Xu for your kindness," Lin Xuan politely declined: "But I like to be alone; I won't trouble your sect."
zhèng shì nà kè yǒu bì yún shān dì tú de yù tǒng jiǎn 。
正是那刻有碧云山地图的玉筒简。
"You person…" Xu Ying's words were cut off by her brother, who glared at Lin Xuan before pouting.
“ gè wèi tóng dào ruò shì guàng lèi le , yě kě yǐ qián wǎng yì guǎn xiū xī , dāng rán , xiàn zài yào qù yě kě yǐ , zì yǒu běn mén dì qí tā dì zǐ , huì zhāo dài dào yǒu 。” luó wēi shuō zhe , gǒng le gǒng shǒu :“ zài xià hái yǒu shì zài shēn , jiù xiān gào cí 。”
“各位同道若是逛累了,也可以前往驿馆休息,当然,现在要去也可以,自有本门地其他弟子,会招待道友。”罗威说着,拱了拱手:“在下还有事在身,就先告辞。”
This sweet-faced beauty was quite charming when she was angry too.
“ lín dà gē , wǒ men yì qǐ qù guàng guàng ba !” xú yīn cuì shēng shēng de kāi kǒu xiāng yāo 。
“林大哥,我们一起去逛逛吧!”徐茵脆生生的开口相邀。
"Since that's the case, then Junior Brother Lin take care. We'll meet at the inn later,"
“ shì a , lín shī dì , guì pài zhǐ lái le nǐ yī rén , ruò bù xián qì , bù rú yǔ wǒ men yì qǐ xíng dòng , duō shǎo yě yǒu gè zhào yìng 。”
“是啊,林师弟,贵派只来了你一人,若不嫌弃,不如与我们一起行动,多少也有个照应。”
"Alright!" Lin Xuan bowed and transformed into a streak of light as he flew away.
“ xiè xiè gū niáng yǔ xú xiōng dì hǎo yì 。” lín xuān què wǎn rán xiǎng jù :“ bù guò zài xià sù lái xǐ huān yí gè rén , jiù bù dāo láo guì pài le 。”
“谢谢姑娘与徐兄地好意。”林轩却宛然想拒:“不过在下素来喜欢一个人,就不叨唠贵派了。”
"Brother, you're really something. This Lin Xuan acts so arrogant and self-important; why should we still bow down to him?"
“ nǐ zhè rén ……” xú yīn de huà shuō dào yí bàn , jiù bèi xiōng zhǎng dǎ duàn , bù mǎn de kàn le lín xuān yī yǎn , jué qǐ le zuǐ bā 。
“你这人……”徐茵的话说到一半,就被兄长打断,不满的看了林轩一眼,崛起了嘴巴。
"Little Sister." Xu Feng turned back with an unhappy look: "Junior Brother Lin saved your life with the Reviving Pill. How can you say such things behind his back?"
zhè wèi xiàng mào qīng tián de xiǎo měi nǚ , shēng qǐ qì lái yě hěn yòu rén 。
这位相貌清甜的小美女,生起气来也很诱人。
"He just doesn't like it. We invited him, but he rejected us so coldly."
“ jì rán rú cǐ , nà lín shī dì zì jǐ xiǎo xīn jiù shì , yī huì er wǒ men zài yì guǎn jiàn miàn 。”
“既然如此,那林师弟自己小心就是,一会儿我们在驿馆见面。”
"Enough; you're still acting like a child at your age. Junior Brother Lin might have something important," he petted his sister's head affectionately before his expression turned serious as he glanced at the junior disciple behind him: "Remember this, Junior Brother Lin is not only your sister's savior but also the future Supreme Master of Spirit Medicine Mountain. For us cultivators, what does medicine mean? I think everyone understands. So, how should we treat him, and I don't need to say more."
“ hǎo !” lín xuān bào quán huí le yī lǐ , huà wèi yī dào dùn guāng , xiàng zhe yuǎn chù ér qù 。
“好!”林轩抱拳回了一礼,化为一道遁光,向着远处而去。
"Brother, you can rest assured; we understand,"
“ gē , nǐ yě zhēn shì de , zhè ge lín xuān yī fù zhuāi zhuāi chòu pì de mú yàng , wǒ men gàn má hái yào zhè me dī shēng xià qì de yǔ tā jié jiāo 。”
“哥,你也真是的,这个林轩一副拽拽臭屁的模样,我们干嘛还要这么低声下气的与他结交。”
"We certainly won't offend the future Supreme Master of Spirit Medicine Mountain."
“ xiǎo mèi 。” xú fēng bù mǎn de huí tóu kàn le shào nǚ yī yǎn :“ lín shī dì liàn chéng dì huí chūn dān jiù le nǐ yī mìng , nǐ zěn me néng zhè yàng zài bèi hòu shuō zì jǐ dì ēn rén 。”
“小妹。”徐风不满的回头看了少女一眼:“林师弟炼成地回春丹救了你一命,你怎么能这样在背后说自己地恩人。”
Hearing his disciples' words, Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
“ rén jiā zhǐ shì bù shuǎng , wǒ men hǎo xīn hǎo yì yāo qǐng tā , tā què zhè yàng jù rén yú qiān lǐ zhī wài 。”
“人家只是不爽,我们好心好意邀请他,他却这样拒人于千里之外。”
The Tian Shan group immediately flew toward the direction of the inn.
“ hǎo la , zhè me dà le , hái shì yī fù xiǎo hái zi de pí qì , lín shī dì shuō bù dìng yǒu shén me shì 。” tā chǒng nì dì mō le mō mèi mèi de tóu , liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng què biàn dé yán sù qǐ lái le , tóng shí yě sǎo le yī yǎn shēn hòu de shī dì :“ dà jiā jì zhù le , lín xuān bù zhǐ shì shě mèi de jiù mìng ēn rén , ér qiě hái shì líng yào shān wèi lái de zhǎng mén zhì zūn , dān yào duì yú wǒ men xiū shì ér yán , yì wèi zhe shén me , wǒ xiǎng dà jiā dōu qīng chǔ , suǒ yǐ dà jiā duì tā gāi yòng shén me tài dù , wǒ xiǎng yě bù yòng wǒ duō shuō 。”
“好啦,这么大了,还是一副小孩子的脾气,林师弟说不定有什么事。”他宠溺地摸了摸妹妹的头,脸上的表情却变得严肃起来了,同时也扫了一眼身后的师弟:“大家记住了,林轩不止是舍妹的救命恩人,而且还是灵药山未来的掌门至尊,丹药对于我们修士而言,意味着什么,我想大家都清楚,所以大家对他该用什么态度,我想也不用我多说。”
After Lin Xuan and the Luo siblings bid farewell, they stopped a short distance away. Then, he took out the jade tube scroll with the map of Jade Cloud Mountain from his pocket and injected his divine sense into it.
“ shī xiōng fàng xīn , wǒ men xiǎo de 。”
“师兄放心,我们晓得。”
A moment later, Lin Xuan looked around and headed southeast.
“ wǒ men dāng rán bú huì dé zuì líng yào shān wèi lái de zhǎng mén le 。”
“我们当然不会得罪灵药山未来的掌门了。”
Half an hour later, Lin Xuan arrived at a more secluded area.
tīng le zhòng shī dì de huà , xú fēng mǎn yì de diǎn le diǎn tóu 。
听了众师弟的话,徐风满意的点了点头。
Looking ahead, only a few scattered trees could be seen, vastly different from the fairyland-like scenery just now.
tiān shān zhòng rén dāng jí dùn guāng fēi xiàng le yì guǎn de fāng xiàng 。
天山众人当即遁光飞向了驿馆的方向。
"Here we are."
zài shuō lín xuān yǔ luó shì xiōng mèi gào cí yǐ hòu , fēi chū yī xiǎo duàn jù lí , jiù tíng le xià lái , rán hòu tā cóng huái zhōng qǔ chū nà kè yǒu bì yún shān dì tú de yù tǒng jiǎn , jiāng shén shí zhù rù lǐ miàn 。
再说林轩与罗氏兄妹告辞以后,飞出一小段距离,就停了下来,然后他从怀中取出那刻有碧云山地图的玉筒简,将神识注入里面。
Lin Xuan muttered to himself before landing.
yī xiǎo huì er hòu , lín xuān tái qǐ tóu , biàn shí le yī xià fāng xiàng , rán hòu jiù xiàng dōng nán chù fēi zǒu 。
一小会儿后,林轩抬起头,辨识了一下方向,然后就像东南处飞走。
Scanning his surroundings with divine sense, a smile appeared on his lips: "Come out; I'm here. Do you still want to play tricks?"
xiǎo bàn gè shí chén yǐ hòu , lín xuān yǐ lái dào le yī jiào wéi huāng pì de dì diǎn 。
小半个时辰以后,林轩已来到了一较为荒僻的地点。
"Junior Master is jesting; how could late junior dare?"
fàng yǎn wàng qù , qián miàn zhǐ yǒu xī xī lā lā de jǐ kē xiǎo shù , yǔ gāng cái rén jiān xiān jìng bān de jǐng sè de dà bù xiāng tóng 。
放眼望去,前面只有稀稀拉拉的几棵小树,与刚才人间仙境般的景色的大不相同。
The familiar voice, filled with flattery, appeared as a blue mist from thin air. Ma傲 emerged.
“ jiù shì zhè lǐ le 。”
“就是这里了。”
"I let you go according to our agreement, so hand over the treasure you promised!"
lín xuān zì yán zì yǔ de dí gū le yī jù , rán hòu jiù là xià dùn guāng 。
林轩自言自语的嘀咕了一句,然后就落下遁光。
Lin Xuan wasn't inherently bad but also not a pushover. His principle was to be clear about his debts and grudges. Ma傲 had once disrespected him, yet Lin Xuan pardoned him generously without using Xu Feng's help to eliminate him. He didn't do it out of softness; rather, Ma傲 had requested forgiveness and promised to offer a treasure as compensation.
yòng shén shí sǎo shì le yī xià sì zhōu , lín xuān de zuǐ jiǎo biān liú lù chū yī sī xiào róng :“ chū lái ba , wǒ yǐ jīng dào le , nǐ nán dào hái xiǎng yào gǎo shén me guǐ huā yàng ?”
用神识扫视了一下四周,林轩的嘴角边流露出一丝笑容:“出来吧,我已经到了,你难道还想要搞什么鬼花样?”
Eliminating Lightning Sword Sect was merely to vent his frustration. It would be more beneficial to obtain a treasure instead.
“ shǎo zhǎng mén shuō xiào le , wǎn bèi nǎ ér gǎn ne ?”
“少掌门说笑了,晚辈哪儿敢呢?”
"Alright, stop talking nonsense and show me the item!"
shú xī de shēng yīn , dài zhe yī sī xiàn mèi , qián fāng píng kōng chū xiàn le yī lǚ lán sè de wù qì , léi ào cóng lǐ miàn zuān le chū lái 。
熟悉的声音,带着一丝献媚,前方凭空出现了一缕蓝色的雾气,雷傲从里面钻了出来。
"Yes!" Seeing Lin Xuan's impatience, Ma傲 quickly reached into his storage bag and took out an object.
“ wǒ àn zhào yuē dìng fàng guò le nǐ , nǐ yě jiāng suǒ shuō de bǎo wù xiàn shàng lái ba !”
“我按照约定放过了你,你也将所说的宝物献上来吧!”
"What is this?"
lín xuān běn xìng bù huài , dàn yě jué fēi làn hǎo rén , tā de xìn tiáo shì ēn yuàn fēn míng , léi ào céng duì zì jǐ bù jìng , lín xuān què dà dù de fàng le tā yī mǎ , méi yǒu jiè xú fēng zhī shǒu miè diào tā , bìng bú shì xīn ruǎn , ér shì léi ào chuán yīn , qǐng qiú zì jǐ yuán liàng , bìng yuàn xiàn shàng yī jiàn bǎo wù , zuò wèi péi lǐ 。
林轩本性不坏,但也绝非滥好人,他的信条是恩怨分明,雷傲曾对自己不敬,林轩却大度的放了他一马,没有借徐风之手灭掉他,并不是心软,而是雷傲传音,请求自己原谅,并愿献上一件宝物,做为赔礼。
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow as he examined it closely. It was a book, extremely old. He released a white light to retrieve it.
miè léi jiàn mén , yě bù guò shì chū yī kǒu xiōng zhōng de è qì , yǔ qí rú cǐ , hái bù rú huò dé yī jiàn bǎo wù huá suàn yī xiē 。
灭雷剑门,也不过是出一口胸中的恶气,与其如此,还不如获得一件宝物划算一些。
The cover read three large characters: "Heavenly Thunder Technique."
“ hǎo le , shǎo shuō fèi huà , jiāng dōng xī ná chū lái ba !”
“好了,少说废话,将东西拿出来吧!”
"Technique?"
“ shì !” kàn jiàn lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū bù nài zhī sè , léi ào lián máng shēn shǒu rù huái , cóng chǔ wù dài zhōng qǔ chū le yī wù 。
“是!”看见林轩脸上露出不耐之色,雷傲连忙伸手入怀,从储物袋中取出了一物。
Disappointment flashed across Lin Xuan's face. He already had the Nine Heaven Profound Art; even if this Heavenly Thunder Technique was powerful, it wouldn't be of much use to him. Moreover, a fourth-rate sect's offering couldn't possibly be anything special.
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
"Junior Master, don't rush. How could I dare deceive you with trash? This Heavenly Thunder Technique isn't an outstanding technique, but the treasure I'm giving you is not this."
lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo , duān xiáng zhuó yǎn qián zhī wù , nà shì yī běn shū , chén jiù wú bǐ , lín xuān fàng chū yī dào bái guāng , jiāng tā qǔ le guò lái 。
林轩眉头一挑,端详着眼前之物,那是一本书,陈旧无比,林轩放出一道白光,将它取了过来。
"Not this?" Lin Xuan was taken aback: "Then why are you showing me this book?"
fēng pí shàng xiě zhe sān gè dà zì 《 tiān léi jué 》。
封皮上写着三个大字《天雷诀》。
"Senior, take a closer look."
“ gōng fǎ ?”
“功法?”
Seeing that he wasn't joking and considering his reputation, Lin Xuan lowered his head to examine the ancient book.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū shī wàng zhī sè , yuán yīn wú tā , zì jǐ yǐ jīng yǒu le 《 jiǔ tiān xuán gōng 》, xiān bù guǎn zhè 《 tiān léi jué 》 wēi lì rú hé , duì zì jǐ kěn dìng méi yǒu duō dà yòng chǔ , gèng hé kuàng yí gè sì liú mén pài ná chū lái de dōng xī , yòu néng gāo míng dào hé chù ?
林轩脸上露出失望之色,原因无他,自己已经有了《九天玄功》,先不管这《天雷决》威力如何,对自己肯定没有多大用处,更何况一个四流门派拿出来的东西,又能高明到何处?
It was indeed strange; typically, sects stored their secret techniques in jade tubes for easy reading and preservation.
“ shǎo mén zhǔ bú yào zháo jí , zài xià zěn me gǎn ná lā jī lái hù nòng nǐ , zhè 《 tiān léi jué 》 què shí bú shì shén me dǐng jiān de gōng fǎ , dàn wǎn bèi xiàn gěi nǐ de bǎo wù , běn lái jiù bú shì tā 。”
“少门主不要着急,在下怎么敢拿垃圾来糊弄你,这《天雷决》确实不是什么顶尖的功法,但晚辈献给你的宝物,本来就不是它。”
A book?
“ bú shì tā ?” lín xuān yí zhèng :“ nà nǐ ná cǐ shū chū lái gàn má ?”
“不是它?”林轩一怔:“那你拿此书出来干嘛?”
That was something from the secular world.
“ qián bèi zài zǐ xì kàn kàn 。”
“前辈再仔细看看。”
Holding the Heavenly Thunder Technique, Lin Xuan's expression gradually turned serious as he flipped through its pages.
Not just the disciples of Lightning Sword Sect, but almost all cultivators in the vicinity had their attention focused on this place. Many even wore expressions of schadenfreude.
"Haha, it's merely a small misunderstanding. Thank Brother Xu for your kindness; I can handle it myself," Lin Xuan pondered for a moment before speaking with an unchanged expression.
The disciples of Lightning Sword Sect heaved a sigh of relief. On the other hand, there was a strange and mixed look on Ma傲's face—both relieved and reluctant.
"If that's so, then this brother won't trouble you any further. If Brother Xian needs anything from me in the future, just speak up; I mustn't be too polite."
Xu Feng glanced at Ma傲 with an intentional glance as he spoke. The latter hurriedly lowered his head, avoiding eye contact.
"Haha, Brother Xu can rest assured. In my heart, you've always been a friend to me," Lin Xuan said.
Just as these words left his mouth, the young girl beside him jumped up: "Brother, Lin Senior, look!"
Following her finger, everyone saw that on the other side of Immortal Inducing Bridge, there was a strange light surrounding it, with a faint aura of immortality. Dozens of disciples from Jade Cloud Mountain floated over. Leading them was an elderly man with white hair and beard, around seventy years old but without any signs of old age, his spirit vibrant as he bowed: "Sorry for keeping everyone waiting. I am Luo Wei, the attendant responsible for receiving guests at Jade Cloud Mountain. Please follow me."
Luo Wei's cultivation level was mid-Basement Establishment.
This also showed the strength of the three major sects; an inner door disciple in charge of miscellaneous tasks had a cultivation level that surpassed many elites from second and third-rate sects.
For Jade Cloud Mountain, Basement Establishment cultivators were not rare.
"Friend, you're too kind,"
The crowd on Immortal Inducing Bridge exchanged some polite words before following Luo Wei toward the other end of the bridge.
A beautiful garden appeared in front of them.
Various exotic flowers and plants bloomed, a feast for the eyes. But what caught everyone's attention was at the center of the garden—a large teleportation array.
Although Lin Xuan hadn't been cultivating long, he had several years under his belt. Compared to peers, he could be considered well-traveled.
According to his knowledge, ordinary teleportation arrays could only transport a few people, but one that could carry over a hundred was unheard of. Luo Wei's words seemed polite, but they carried an air of defiance and warning. Lin Xuan noticed that while the wandering cultivators had neutral expressions, those from sects and families looked uncomfortable. Even Xu Feng's gaze turned cold.
Only Lin Xuan remained calm, pretending not to understand.
With various ulterior motives, everyone arrived at the teleportation array. Luo Wei instructed other Jade Cloud Mountain disciples to embed crystals around it before casting a spell on the central point of the array.
A whistling sound filled the air as the array activated, and after a burst of colorful light, everyone disappeared from their original spot.
As they gazed upon the beautiful scenery that appeared before them, many faces showed surprise.
---
What was Immortal Inducing Land like?
This place was the best description.
Pavilions, terraces, and towers surrounded by birdsong and floral fragrance. Various rare beasts roamed freely at their feet. The thick fog made it feel as if they were standing in a sea of clouds.
"Friends, we have arrived at our sect's inner door. The Immortal Inducing Conference will be held tomorrow; you can wander around and admire the scenery of Jade Cloud Mountain. Of course, there are some forbidden areas that shouldn't be trespassed upon. I've noted them down on this jade tube scroll," Luo Wei said as he took out a storage bag from his pocket and gently tapped it. Instantly, countless red lights shot out and landed in the hands of each outsider.
It was the jade tube scroll with the map of Jade Cloud Mountain.
"If you get tired, you can also rest at the inn. Of course, if you wish to go now, there are other disciples from our sect who will entertain you," Luo Wei said as he bowed: "I have matters to attend to; I'll take my leave."
"Lin Senior, let's go sightseeing together!" Xu Ying chirped.
"Yes, Lin Junior Brother, your sect only sent you. If you don't mind, we can travel together for some company,"
"Thank you, Miss and Brother Xu for your kindness," Lin Xuan politely declined: "But I like to be alone; I won't trouble your sect."
"You person…" Xu Ying's words were cut off by her brother, who glared at Lin Xuan before pouting.
This sweet-faced beauty was quite charming when she was angry too.
"Since that's the case, then Junior Brother Lin take care. We'll meet at the inn later,"
"Alright!" Lin Xuan bowed and transformed into a streak of light as he flew away.
"Brother, you're really something. This Lin Xuan acts so arrogant and self-important; why should we still bow down to him?"
"Little Sister." Xu Feng turned back with an unhappy look: "Junior Brother Lin saved your life with the Reviving Pill. How can you say such things behind his back?"
"He just doesn't like it. We invited him, but he rejected us so coldly."
"Enough; you're still acting like a child at your age. Junior Brother Lin might have something important," he petted his sister's head affectionately before his expression turned serious as he glanced at the junior disciple behind him: "Remember this, Junior Brother Lin is not only your sister's savior but also the future Supreme Master of Spirit Medicine Mountain. For us cultivators, what does medicine mean? I think everyone understands. So, how should we treat him, and I don't need to say more."
"Brother, you can rest assured; we understand,"
"We certainly won't offend the future Supreme Master of Spirit Medicine Mountain."
Hearing his disciples' words, Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
The Tian Shan group immediately flew toward the direction of the inn.
After Lin Xuan and the Luo siblings bid farewell, they stopped a short distance away. Then, he took out the jade tube scroll with the map of Jade Cloud Mountain from his pocket and injected his divine sense into it.
A moment later, Lin Xuan looked around and headed southeast.
Half an hour later, Lin Xuan arrived at a more secluded area.
Looking ahead, only a few scattered trees could be seen, vastly different from the fairyland-like scenery just now.
"Here we are."
Lin Xuan muttered to himself before landing.
Scanning his surroundings with divine sense, a smile appeared on his lips: "Come out; I'm here. Do you still want to play tricks?"
"Junior Master is jesting; how could late junior dare?"
The familiar voice, filled with flattery, appeared as a blue mist from thin air. Ma傲 emerged.
"I let you go according to our agreement, so hand over the treasure you promised!"
Lin Xuan wasn't inherently bad but also not a pushover. His principle was to be clear about his debts and grudges. Ma傲 had once disrespected him, yet Lin Xuan pardoned him generously without using Xu Feng's help to eliminate him. He didn't do it out of softness; rather, Ma傲 had requested forgiveness and promised to offer a treasure as compensation.
Eliminating Lightning Sword Sect was merely to vent his frustration. It would be more beneficial to obtain a treasure instead.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense and show me the item!"
"Yes!" Seeing Lin Xuan's impatience, Ma傲 quickly reached into his storage bag and took out an object.
"What is this?"
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow as he examined it closely. It was a book, extremely old. He released a white light to retrieve it.
The cover read three large characters: "Heavenly Thunder Technique."
"Technique?"
Disappointment flashed across Lin Xuan's face. He already had the Nine Heaven Profound Art; even if this Heavenly Thunder Technique was powerful, it wouldn't be of much use to him. Moreover, a fourth-rate sect's offering couldn't possibly be anything special.
"Junior Master, don't rush. How could I dare deceive you with trash? This Heavenly Thunder Technique isn't an outstanding technique, but the treasure I'm giving you is not this."
"Not this?" Lin Xuan was taken aback: "Then why are you showing me this book?"
"Senior, take a closer look."
Seeing that he wasn't joking and considering his reputation, Lin Xuan lowered his head to examine the ancient book.

Holding the Heavenly Thunder Technique, Lin Xuan's expression gradually turned serious as he flipped through its pages.
