修炼无岁月，时间一天天流逝。战甲术虽与炼制法宝颇有几分相似，但做为修仙百艺之一，想要掌握也不是那么容易。从林轩决定炼制碧焰麒麟甲开始，不知不觉间，已过去了三年。
Time flew by as Lin Xuan focused on refining the armor. Although the Art of War Armors shared some similarities with crafting magical treasures, mastering it was not an easy task. Since Lin Xuan decided to refine the Azure Flame Qilin Armor, three years had passed without him realizing it.
zài zhè qí jiān ， tā lì yòng shēn shàng de cái liào ， xiān hòu liàn zhì chū le shí jǐ tào zhàn jiǎ ， dāng rán ， liàn fèi de gèng duō 。 yòng zhè zhǒng jìn hū yú làng fèi de fāng fǎ ， lín xuān de liàn jiǎ shù ， zài yī tiān yī tiān de wěn bù tí shēng
在这其间，他利用身上的材料，先后炼制出了十几套战甲，当然，炼废的更多。用这种近乎于浪费的方法，林轩的炼甲术，在一天一天的稳步提升
During this period, he used his materials to create over a dozen sets of armors, though most were discarded due to failures. Through this process, Lin Xuan's armor crafting skills steadily improved.
měi rì chú le liàn xí zhàn jiǎ shù yǐ wài ， lín xuān yě fú yào dǎ zuò ， zhè lǐ de líng qì nóng dù suī rán shāo chà le yì diǎn ， bù guò jiè zhù yāo yǎn shě lì ， xiū xí fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué wán quán méi yǒu wèn tí 。 dāng rán ， yǒu kòng de shí hòu ， lín xuān yě shě qù kàn yī xià yuè ér qíng xíng rú hé 。 yuán běn àn zhào xiǎo táo suǒ shuō ， yǒu gè yī nián bàn zǎi ， zěn me yě yīng háng jiāng xiū luó shén xuè liàn huà kě yī zhuǎn yǎn ， sān nián de suì yuè cuō tuó -， jìn zhǎn què bǐ xiǎng xiàng de màn dé duō 。 hǎo zài zhè qī jiān bìng méi yǒu chū chā cuò 。 lín xuān suī yǒu xiē jiāo jí ， dàn zhè zhǒng shì qíng tā shì bāng bù shàng máng dì ， zhǐ néng nài xīn de děng xià
每日除了练习战甲术以外，林轩也服药打坐，这里的灵气浓度虽然稍差了一点，不过借助妖眼舍利，修习凤舞九天诀完全没有问题。当然，有空的时候，林轩也舍去看一下月儿情形如何。原本按照小桃所说，有个一年半载，怎么也应杭将修罗神血炼化可一转眼，三年的岁月蹉跎-，进展却比想象的慢得多。好在这期间并没有出差错。林轩虽有些焦急，但这种事情他是帮不上忙地，只能耐心的等下
Apart from practicing the Art of War Armors daily, Lin Xuan also took time to meditate and take medicinal pills. Although the air here was slightly less dense, he could still practice the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique with the aid of a妖眼舍利 (Jiayan Sheli). Occasionally, he would check on Mo'er's progress, as per Xiao Tao’s instructions that it should take at least a year and a half to refine the Deva Blood. However, three years had passed much slower than expected.
sú huà shuō ， hǎo shì duō mó ， xiǎo táo céng shuō ， xiū luó shén xuè liàn huà dé yuè màn ， zhèng míng lǐ miàn suǒ xū yào xī shōu de xiān lì yuè duō ， duì yú xiǎo jiě ， shì yǒu bǎi lì ér wú yī hài de 。
俗话说，好事多磨，小桃曾说，修罗神血炼化得越慢，证明里面所需要吸收的仙力越多，对于小姐，是有百利而无一害的。
Despite his impatience, Lin Xuan could do little but wait patiently. As they say, good things come with patience; Xiao Tao once mentioned that the longer it took to refine the Deva Blood, the more divine energy it contained, which was beneficial for Mo'er in every way.
lín xuān suī yǒu xiē jiāng xìn jiāng yí ， bù guò zǐ xì huí wèi ， zhè huà yě yǒu jǐ fēn dào lǐ 。
林轩虽有些将信将疑，不过仔细回味，这话也有几分道理。
Though Lin Xuan was skeptical, he found some merit in her words when he reflected on them.
chú le gé sān chà wǔ de lái kàn yuè ér yǐ wài ， lín xuān zì jǐ de xiū wèi dǎo shì zēng zhǎng dé fēi kuài 。
除了隔三差五的来看月儿以外，林轩自己的修为倒是增长得飞快。
Apart from occasionally checking on Mo'er, Lin Xuan’s cultivation had improved significantly. In just three years, he had mastered the third layer of the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique much faster than anticipated. He attributed this to the five-colored essence qi within him, as it represented the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. As a phoenix, he could naturally control these energies.
duǎn duǎn de sān nián ， fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué de dì sān céng tā yǐ chū bù zhǎng wò ， zhè bǐ yuán xiān yù jì de yào kuài dé duō ， lín xuān zài jīng xǐ zhī yú ， yě è rán bù yǐ ， xì xì xiǎng lái ， kǒng pà yǔ tǐ nèi de wǔ sè líng qì ， yǒu zhe mò dà de guān xì 。
短短的三年，凤舞九天诀的第三层他已初步掌握，这比原先预计的要快得多，林轩在惊喜之余，也愕然不已，细细想来，恐怕与体内的五色灵气，有着莫大的关系。
With the third layer under his belt, Lin Xuan decided to start refining the Azure Flame Qilin Armor. Over three years of research had significantly improved his armor crafting skills. While he couldn't guarantee 100% success, he was confident that with careful handling, there was a 70% chance of success.
bì jìng wǔ sè ， jiù dài biǎo le jīn mù shuǐ huǒ tǔ ， ér fèng huáng zuò wèi bǎi niǎo zhī wáng ， běn lái jiù kě yǐ rèn yì qū shǐ wǔ xíng líng qì 。
毕竟五色，就代表了金木水火土，而凤凰做为百鸟之王，本来就可以任意驱使五行灵气。
Despite the remaining 30% failure rate sounding alarming, Lin Xuan could not afford to delay. Each skill took time to master; while his current level allowed him to refine armors proficiently, reaching the next level as an armor master would require decades of continuous practice.
cóng zhè yì diǎn lái shuō ， fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué jiù fǎng fú wèi zì jǐ liàng shēn dìng zuò ， jiù suàn shì chuàng lì zhè tào gōng fǎ de xuán fèng xiān zi ， lùn tǐ zhì ， kǒng pà dōu hái méi yǒu zì jǐ shì hé xiū xí 。
从这一点来说，凤舞九天诀就仿佛为自己量身定做，就算是创立这套功法的玄凤仙子，论体质，恐怕都还没有自己适合修习。
Lin Xuan had no intention of waiting that long. With a 70% success rate, he believed it was safe enough if he remained cautious. As he thought this through, he began gathering materials from his storage bag.
dì sān céng chū bù zhǎng wò ， nà yāo dān yě jiù shuǐ dào qú chéng de jìn jiē le ， bì jìng tā de zhǔ wú yīng yǐ jīng shì hòu qī jìng jiè ， dì èr yuán yīng yǔ yāo dān de jìn jí ， jiù bù zài yǒu píng xū ， xiāng duì lái shuō ， yǔ yǐ qián xiāng bǐ ， jiǎn zhí shì wàn fēn róng yì 。
第三层初步掌握，那妖丹也就水到渠成的进阶了，毕竟他的主无婴已经是后期境界，第二元婴与妖丹的晋级，就不再有瓶须，相对来说，与以前相比，简直是万分容易。
In moments, various bottles and jars, along with dozens of silk boxes, were piled before him. The materials needed to refine the Azure Flame Qilin Armor numbered over a hundred pieces. Lin Xuan sighed; these materials alone could rival a major sect's thousand-year accumulation. He couldn't afford any failures and was eager to see the power of this armor.
yāo dān dào le zhōng qī ， jiē xià lái yīng gāi shì dì èr yuán yīng de jìn jí ， dàn cǐ shì bù jí ， jīng guò sān nián de nǔ lì ， lín xuān de liàn jiǎ shù kě zǒu jìn bù hěn duō ， tā yě méi yǒu shí jiān jì xù xiāo mó ， shì shí hòu wèi zì jǐ liàn zhì bì yàn qí lín jiǎ le 。
妖丹到了中期，接下来应该是第二元婴的进级，但此事不急，经过三年的努力，林轩的炼甲术可走进步很多，他也没有时间继续消磨，是时候为自己炼制碧焰麒麟甲了。
He reached out his hand and pointed at the largest silk box, which emitted a blue light as it opened. Inside lay a large piece of black material—Cosmic Iron Mother!
shuō qǐ lái ， zhè sān nián yì guò ， lín xuān shì zài dòng fǔ nèi bì guān dǎ zuò ， dàn wài miàn de shí èr zhōu ， zǎo yǐ shì fēng qǐ yún yǒng 。
说起来，这三年易过，林轩是在洞府内闭关打坐，但外面的十二州，早已是风起云涌。
While copper could be used for ordinary magical treasures after a thousand years, Cosmic Iron Mother was even more precious than ten-thousand-year-old copper. It was lightweight and incredibly hard. According to the instructions in the Jade Scroll, Lin Xuan planned to use it as the base for refining the Azure Flame Qilin Armor.
xuān yuán chéng de yú bō ， bù jǐn méi yǒu guò qù ， zhěng jiàn shì qíng de yǐng xiǎng ， fǎn ér zhú jiàn jiào kāi ， bì jìng sǐ le shí yú wàn xiū xiān zhě ， gè mén gè pài ， rén yāo liǎng kǎn ， kě yǐ shuō ， shāo wēi dà yī diǎn shì lì ， quán dōu bèi qiān chě le jìn qù 。
轩辕城的余波，不仅没有过去，整件事情的影响，反而逐渐酵开，毕竟死了十余万修仙者，各门各派，人妖两莰，可以说，稍微大一点势力，全都被牵扯了进去。
His expression turned serious as he cast a spell, causing the Cosmic Iron Mother to float before him. He opened his mouth, emitting a stream of five-colored infant fire. This was a thin but vibrant flame that enveloped and ignited the Cosmic Iron Mother.
hù xiāng zhǐ zé ， qīng zhōu ， yuán zhōu ， liǔ zhōu ， sān gè zhōu bàn xiān kāi zhàn ， suí hòu de zhōu fǔ ， yě zhú jiàn bèi juǎn le jìn lái 。
互相指责，青州，元洲，柳州，三个州半先开战，随后的州府，也逐渐被卷了进来。
Lin Xuan sat in meditation, knowing only an Infant Fire from an Incarnate could melt Cosmic Iron Mother. Given its size, ordinary late-stage cultivators couldn't accomplish this task, but with his two Incarnates alternating, it wasn’t a problem.
ér qiě yǔ yǐ qián de yōu zhōu zhī luàn bù tóng ， zhè yī cì xiū xiān jiè de zhàn huǒ ， rán shāo dé wán quán shì luàn qī bā zāo de 。
而且与以前的幽州之乱不同，这一次修仙界的战火，燃烧得完全是乱七八糟的。
Three days later, signs of melting appeared on the surface of the Cosmic Iron Mother, droplets of silver liquid seeping out. Satisfied, Lin Xuan waved his sleeves, sending a small jade bottle forward to catch the melted material.
bào de bìng bú shì zhèng mó zhī jiān de hùn zhàn ， yě bú shì rén yāo liǎng zú dà dǎ chū shǒu ， ér shì gè zōng mén jiā zú ， nǐ dǎ wǒ ， wǒ dǎ nǐ ， shuō chuān le ， jiù shì yǐ xuān yuán chéng zhè jiàn shì wèi jiè kǒu ， yuán běn jiù yǒu yuān chóu de gè mén pài shì lì zhī jiān ， hù xiāng dà dǎ chū shǒu 。 yí gè cí ， hùn luàn ， jiù xiàng shì sú shì jiè de zhàn guó shí dài yì bān 。
爆的并不是正魔之间的混战，也不是人妖两族大打出手，而是各宗门家族，你打我，我打你，说穿了，就是以轩辕城这件事为借口，原本就有冤仇的各门派势力之间，互相大打出手。一个词，混乱，就像世俗世界的战国时代一般。
A loud explosion reached his ears as the bottle burst open, releasing golden grains that seemed alive and merged into the melting Cosmic Iron Mother. Lin Xuan spat and expelled a thicker stream of infant fire.
yǔ nà zhǒng dà lián méng hù xiāng kāi zhàn bù tóng ， zhè zhǒng jú miàn hěn shǎo chū xiàn shǔ yǐ wàn jì de xiū shì dòu fǎ ， dàn mén pài zhī jiān de huǒ bìng ， què jī hū shì suí shí shí kè dōu zài shēng 。
与那种大联盟互相开战不同，这种局面很少出现数以万计的修士斗法，但门派之间的火并，却几乎是随时时刻都在生。
Over several hours, the melting process became more evident. Lin Xuan added several red, fish bladder-like pieces to the mixture. Time passed quickly, and before long, half a month had elapsed.
xīng fēng xuè yǔ ， jiàng luò zài zhěng gè dà dì ， zuì chū shì yǒu yuān bào yuān ， yǒu chóu bào chóu ， zhǎn dào hòu miàn qí shí jiù shì dà yú chī xiǎo yú de xì mǎ le 。
腥风血雨，降落在整个大地，最初是有冤报冤，有仇报仇，展到后面其实就是大鱼吃小鱼的戏码了。
Throughout this time, Lin Xuan added over seventeen types of materials, not strictly following the instructions in the Jade Scroll but making some substitutions based on his understanding. While adding different items could affect the armor's power, he chose substitutes that far surpassed those described in the scroll, with many being from the妖族 (Yao Clan).
yǐ bào chóu wèi jiè kǒu ， nà xiē dà de zōng mén jiā zú ， bù duàn xiàng zhōu 1 wéi kuò zhāng shì lì ， měi tiān dōu yǒu shù bù jìn de xiǎo mén pài ， yǔn luò zài lì shǐ de cháng hé lǐ 。
以报仇为借口，那些大的宗门家族，不断向周1围扩张势力，每天都有数不尽的小门派，陨落在历史的长河里。
For example, refining the Azure Flame Qilin Armor required scales from a poison toad of the transformation stage. Here, this referred to early-stage transformation.
zhè chǎng hùn luàn yǐ qīng liǔ yuán sān gè zhōu zuò wèi qǐ diǎn ， hěn kuài xiàng qí tā de zhōu fǔ bō jí ， rú jīn sān nián guò qù ， fēng píng làng jìng de zhǐ shèng xià yōu zhōu yǔ yún zhōu ér yǐ 。
这场混乱以青柳元三个州做为起点，很快向其他的州府波及，如今三年过去，风平浪静的只剩下幽州与云州而已。
Although Lin Xuan didn’t have such materials in his storage bag, there was a late-stage fire mosquito king that had fallen in the Indefinite River. Since both were part of the dragon clan, he believed these could be used and would yield better results.
zài qí tā rén yǎn lǐ ， yōu zhōu shì mán huāng zhī dì ， cān jiā tiān yī jiā ér yǐ ， kě yǐ shuō ， wán quán méi yǒu shòu dào yǐng xiǎng ， dāng rán ， yě bù wéi rén men zhòng shì 。
在其他人眼里，幽州是蛮荒之地，参加天一家而已，可以说，完全没有受到影响，当然，也不为人们重视。
Ugh, my hand is freezing from frostbite! This winter is so cold...
