“柳师妹，你立刻去幻月阁通知师叔，请她老人家主持犬「弼对方既然打的速战速决的主意，除了元婴期修仙者，．”苏绛唇眼中精光闪过，声音冰冷无比的开口了。
"Little Sister Liu, you must immediately inform Uncle at the Illusory Moon Pavilion. Ask her to take charge of this matter," Su Jinchun's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he spoke in an icy tone.
“ zūn fǎ yù 。”
“尊法谕。”
"Respectful edict."
xià shǒu yī míng shēn chuān lǜ yī de shào nǚ xíng le yī lǐ ， suí hòu hún shēn qīng máng dà qǐ ， huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng xiàng wài fēi qù 。
下首一名身穿绿衣的少女行了一礼，随后浑身青芒大起，化为一道惊虹像外飞去。
A young girl dressed in green bowed and then emitted a bright green glow before shooting out like a streak of lightning toward the Illusory Moon Pavilion.
“ zhū wèi shī mèi ， shì bù yí chí ， wǒ men yě gǎn kuài chū shǒu ， fǒu zé xià miàn de dì zǐ j duō ， què dǎng bú zhù shù yǐ bǎi jì de yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， jì zhù ， bù kě yǔ dí rén yìng pèng ， jiè zhù jìn zhì zhèn fǎ tuō yán jiù xíng le ， zhǐ yào jiǔ gōng jiàn zhèn kāi qǐ ， jiù suàn shì wàng tíng lóu lái dào cǐ chù ， xiǎng yào gōng pò yě bú shì nà me róng yì de 。”
“诸位师妹，事不宜迟，我们也赶快出手，否则下面的弟子j多，却挡不住数以百计的元婴期修仙者，记住，不可与敌人硬碰，借助禁制阵法拖延就行了，只要九宫剑阵开启，就算是望亭楼来到此处，想要攻破也不是那么容易的。”
"Deputy sisters, we must not delay. We should act quickly to counter the attack. Otherwise, with so many disciples below, they won't be able to withstand hundreds of元婴期 cultivators. Remember, avoid direct confrontation with the enemy and use the禁制阵法 to buy time. As long as the Nine Palaces Sword Formation is activated, even if Wangting Pavilion arrives here, breaking through will not be easy."
“ shī jiě fàng xīn ， wǒ men xiǎo de ， wǔ sè xiān zi yǐ qù yún zhōu nèi lù ， wǒ men zhǐ yào dǎng zhù duì fāng de gōng shì jiù xíng le 。”
“师姐放心，我们晓得，五色仙子已去云州内陆，我们只要挡住对方的攻势就行了。”
"We understand, Senior Sister. The Five-Colored Immortal has already left for the inland of Yunzhou. We just need to hold back their offensive."
“ bù cuò ， hù pài dà zhèn suī rán bìng wèi kāi qǐ ， dàn wǒ men yī jiù zhàn jù tiān shí dì lì ， dǎng zhù dí rén de gōng jī yīng gāi méi wèn tí 。”
“不错，护派大阵虽然并未开启，但我们依旧占据天时地利，挡住敌人的攻击应该没问题。”
"That's right. Although the protective array hasn't been fully activated, we still have the advantage of timing and location. Blocking the enemy's attack should not be a problem."
suī rán miàn lín wàn fú zōng yǔ lì hún gǔ de tū xí ， dàn tiān yá hǎi gé bì jìng yě shì yún zhōu qī dà shì lì ， ér qiě zhī dào běn zōng yǐ yǔ wǔ sè líng shān jié méng ， gù ér miàn duì zhè chū rén yì liào de biàn gù ， zhòng zhǎng lǎo què bìng bù huāng luàn shén me 。
虽然面临万佛宗与厉魂谷的突袭，但天涯海阁毕竟也是云州七大势力，而且知道本宗已与五色灵山结盟，故而面对这出人意料的变故，众长老却并不慌乱什么。
Despite the sudden assault from the Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect and Lielun Valley, the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion was still one of the seven major forces in Yunzhou. Moreover, they knew that their sect had allied with the Five-Colored Spirit Mountain. Thus, facing this unexpected turn of events, the elders were not panicking.
jiǎn duǎn de shāng yì ， biàn fēn fēn chū qù yù dí 。
简短的商议，便纷纷出去御敌。
After a brief discussion, they all went out to face the enemy.
yī shí jiān ， yǐ yíng zhōu dǎo wèi zhōng xīn ， fāng yuán bǎi lǐ ， xuè xīng biàn dì ， dé zhī duì fāng de xiān fēng quán shì wú yīng qī yǐ shàng de xiū xiān zhě ， tiān yá hǎi gé yě ràng dī jiē dì zǐ guī suō bù chū ， yóu bǎi yú wèi yuán yīng zhǎng lǎo dài lǐng shù qiān míng níng dān qī nǚ xiū yíng le shàng qù ， céng céng zǔ jiǎn duì fāng de gōng jī 。
一时间，以瀛洲岛为中心，方圆百里，血腥遍地，得知对方的先锋全是无婴期以上的修仙者，天涯海阁也让低阶弟子龟缩不出，由百余位元婴长老带领数千名凝丹期女修迎了上去，层层阻戬对方的攻击。
In an instant, centered around Immortal Isle, within a hundred miles, blood and gore spread everywhere. Knowing that the vanguard was composed of cultivators above the元婴期, the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion kept their lower-ranking disciples hidden. Over a hundred元婴 elders led several thousand condensation core female cultivators to meet them head-on, layer by layer blocking their attacks.
xiān dào jiān nán ， měi tí shēng yí gè jìng jiè shí lì gèng bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ ， tōng cháng lái shuō ， shí yú míng níng dān xiū shì bǎng zài yì qǐ ， yě yuǎn yuǎn wú fǎ yǔ yī yì yuán yīng lǎo guài xiàng bǐ ， bù guò zhè lǐ bì jìng shì tiān yá dí gé zǒng duò ， nǚ xiū men zhàn jù tiān shí dì lì rén hé ， jiè zhù dà dà xiǎo xiǎo de jìn zhì xiāng zhù ， yī shí jiān ， dào yě bù là xià fēng 。
仙道艰难，每提升一个境界实力更不可同日而语，通常来说，十余名凝丹修士绑在一起，也远远无法与一亿元婴老怪相比，不过这里毕竟是天涯涤阁总舵，女修们占据天时地利人和，借助大大小小的禁制相助，一时间，倒也不落下风。
The path of cultivation is arduous; each level brings an incomparable increase in power. Usually, even ten condensation core cultivators together could not match one billion-year-old monster. However, here was the main base of the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion, where female cultivators had the advantage of timing, location, and manpower. With the help of various禁制, they were holding their own for now.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， jù cǐ shù shí wàn lǐ ， yī dào jīng hóng huà pò cāng qióng ， yě zhèng fēng chí diàn de gǎn wǎng tiān yá hǎi gé zǒng duò 。
与此同时，距此数十万里，一道惊虹划破苍穹，也正风驰电的赶往天涯海阁总舵。
At the same time, several tens of thousands of miles away, a streak of lightning cut through the sky as Lin Xuan raced toward the main base of the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion.
dùn guāng zhī zhōng ， shì yī róng mào pǔ tōng de shào nián ， bú yòng shuō ， zhèng shì lín xuān 。
遁光之中，是一容貌普通的少年，不用说，正是林轩。
Amidst the light, was an unremarkable-looking young man. No doubt, it was Lin Xuan.
cóng wǔ sè líng shān chū lái ， lín xuān dé zhī dà zhàn kāi qǐ de xiāo xī ， biàn mǎ bù tíng tí de gǎn le guò qù 。
从五色灵山出来，林轩得知大战开启的消息，便马不停蹄的赶了过去。
Upon leaving Five-Colored Spirit Mountain, Lin Xuan had learned about the start of the great battle and rushed over without delay.
wàn fú zōng qīng tiào ér chū ， yuàn jiāo nà lǐ ， yīng gāi méi yǒu wèn tí ， bì jìng tā de mǔ qīn nǎi lí hé yāo zú ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， wàn fú zōng yīng gāi méi yǒu shén me gāo shǒu le 。
万佛宗倾粜而出，媛姣那里，应该没有问题，毕竟她的母亲乃离合妖族，此时此刻，万佛宗应该没有什么高手了。
With the Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect in full force, things should be fine at Yuanjiao’s place; after all, her mother is a Separation-Union Beast. At this moment, there shouldn't be any powerful experts left in the Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect.
cǐ zhàn de guān jiàn zài yú ， yíng zhōu dǎo néng fǒu shǒu zhù ， yú shì lín xuān sī háo bù gǎn dān gē 。
此战的关键在于，瀛洲岛能否守住，于是林轩丝毫不敢耽搁。
The key to this battle was whether Immortal Isle could hold out. Thus, Lin Xuan did not dare delay. After all, his strength was clear to him; he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage against Separation-Union cultivators. Moer after merging with Deva Blood, her abilities were no less formidable.
bì jìng zì jǐ de shí lì zì jǐ qīng chǔ ， duì shàng lí hé qī xiū shì yě bù xùn sè ， yuè ér róng hé xiū luó shén xuè yǐ hòu ， shén tōng tóng yàng fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
毕竟自己的实力自己清楚，对上离合期修士也不逊色，月儿融合修罗神血以后，神通同样非同小可。
So, even though there were only two of them, their combat power should not be underestimated. At critical moments, they could even turn the tide of battle.
suǒ yǐ bié kàn zì jǐ zhǐ yǒu liǎng rén ， zhàn lì què bù róng qīng hū ， guān jiàn shí kè ， shèn zhì kě yǐ zuǒ yòu shèng fù 。
所以别看自己只有两人，战力却不容轻忽，关键时刻，甚至可以左右胜负。
With Lin Xuan’s current cultivation level, his speed was naturally incredible. Even though it was several tens of thousands of miles to the main base of the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion, he should arrive in about three more hours at this rate.
yǐ lín xuān xiàn zài de xiū wèi ， dùn guāng zì rán qí kuài ， suī rán jù lí tiān yá hǎi gé zǒng duò ， zú yǒu shù shí wàn lǐ ， dàn yǐ xiàn zài de dùn sù ， zài yǒu sān gè shí chén zuǒ yòu ， yīng gāi jiù kě yǐ gǎn dào 。
以林轩现在的修为，遁光自然奇快，虽然距离天涯海阁总舵，足有数十万里，但以现在的遁速，再有三个时辰左右，应该就可以赶到。
Of course, this was because of his special situation; there were many pills for replenishing essence energy in the storage talisman. Otherwise, he would never dare travel so recklessly without conserving his energy, as a fierce battle awaited him upon arrival.
dāng rán ， zhè yě shì yīn wèi lín xuān qíng kuàng tè shū ， chǔ wù jīng zhōng yǒu dà liàng bǔ chōng fǎ lì de dān yào kě yǐ tūn fú ， fǒu zé jué bù gǎn zhè yàng bù jì yuán qì de quán lì gǎn lù ， bì jìng dào dá tiān yá hǎi gé yǐ hòu ， mǎ shàng miàn lín de jiù shì è zhàn le 。
当然，这也是因为林轩情况特殊，储物经中有大量补充法力的丹药可以吞服，否则绝不敢这样不计元气的全力赶路，毕竟到达天涯海阁以后，马上面临的就是恶战了。
Facing such formidable enemies, Lin Xuan had no confidence in victory but was still confident about self-preservation.
rú cǐ qiáng dí ， lín xuān yě méi yǒu zhàn shèng de bǎ wò ， dāng rán ， zì bǎo de xìn xīn hái shì shí zú 。
如此强敌，林轩也没有战胜的把握，当然，自保的信心还是十足。
The sea was vast, and it rarely encountered cultivators. Even if they did, the sight of green light would startle them before any thunderous sounds reached their ears.
dà hǎi guǎng kuò ， hěn shǎo pèng jiàn xiū xiān zhě ， jí shǐ yù jiàn le ， nà xiē rén yě bù guò kàn jiàn qīng guāng yī shǎn ， suí hòu cái yǐn yǐn yǒu fēng léi zhī shēng chuán rù ěr biān 。
大海广阔，很少碰见修仙者，即使遇见了，那些人也不过看见青光一闪，随后才隐隐有风雷之声传入耳边。
These cultivators were greatly alarmed, thinking they might have run into a high-level monster or some demon. They all fled in fear without daring to look around.
nà xiē xiū shì zì rán dà wèi hài rán ， hái yǐ wéi pèng jiàn le gāo jiē yāo shòu huò zhě shén me yāo mó guǐ guài ， yí gè gè nǎ gǎn duō kàn ， quán bù bào tóu shǔ cuàn 。
那些修士自然大为骇然，还以为碰见了高阶妖兽或者什么妖魔鬼怪，一个个哪敢多看，全部抱头鼠窜。
Lin Xuan traveled unimpeded and arrived at Immortal Isle with incredible speed.
lín xuān yī lù shàng méi yǒu yù jiàn dān gē wēi xiǎn ， fēng chí diàn chè de xiàng yíng zhōu dǎo ér lái 。
林轩一路上没有遇见耽搁危险，风驰电掣的像瀛洲岛而来。
After a short while, he had entered the waters of Jigou Island.
yòu tuō piàn kè ， yǐ jīng jìn rù chī ， jīn dǎo de hǎi yù le 。
又乇片刻，已经进入魑，金岛的海域了。
Speaking of Jigou Island, it was quite famous among the outer seas of Yunzhou. Not only did it have vast land, but there was also the largest market on the island.
shuō qǐ kuí jīn dǎo ， zài yún zhōu wài hǎi ， yě suàn dǐng dǐng dà míng 。
说起魁金岛，在云州外海，也算鼎鼎大名。
As the saying goes, "follow the mountain to eat from the mountain and follow the sea to eat from the sea." This principle held true for cultivators as well.
bù jǐn miàn jī guǎng kuò ， ér qiě zài cǐ dǎo zhī shàng ， yǒu wài wǔ zuì dà de yí gè fāng shì cún zài 。
不仅面积广阔，而且在此岛之上，有外侮最大的一个坊市存在。
In the depths of the ocean, countless sea beasts and妖族 roamed. While dangerous, these resources provided endless opportunities for cultivation.
sú huà shuō ， kào shān chī shān ， kào hǎi chī hǎi ， zhè jù huà duì xiū xiān zhě ér yán ， tóng yàng shì tiān lǐ bān de cún zài 。
俗话说，靠山吃山，靠海吃海，这句话对修仙者而言，同样是天理般的存在。
The inner organs, skin, bones, and other parts of these beasts were highly sought after.
zài hǎi yáng shēn chù ， yǒu shù zhī bù jìn de hǎi shòu yāo zú ， duì yú xiū shì lái shuō ， gù rán wēi xiǎn biàn bù ， dàn tóng yàng de ， yě duì tā men xiū liàn ， tí gōng le yuán yuán bù duàn de zī yuán 。
在海洋深处，有数之不尽的海兽妖族，对于修士来说，固然危险遍布，但同样的，也对他们修炼，提供了源源不断的资源。
Although there weren't many crystal stones in the ocean, these resources were far more abundant than on the mainland.
yāo shòu de nèi dān ， pí máo ， gǔ gé ， wú bù shì qiǎng shǒu huò 。
妖兽的内丹，皮毛，骨骼，无不是抢手货。
Thus, scattered cultivators as well as sects and families usually relied on hunting sea beasts for their livelihood. After each expedition, they would sell whatever they couldn’t use to the market for crystal stones, which served as currency in the cultivation world. Jigou Island had the largest market in the outer seas, serving as a resting place for cultivators.
hǎi yáng zhōng jīng shí kuàng bù duō ， dàn zhè xiē zī yuán què yuǎn bǐ nèi lù fēng fù 。
海洋中晶石矿不多，但这些资源却远比内陆丰富。
This market was extremely wealthy and jointly operated by several major sects and families. As the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion dominated the outer seas, they held 60% of this market's share.
gù ér wài hǎi zhōng de sàn xiū bú yòng shuō ， biàn shì nà xiē zōng mén jiā zú ， tōng cháng yě shì yǐ liè shā hǎi shòu wéi shēng de 。
故而外海中的散修不用说，便是那些宗门家族，通常也是以猎杀海兽为生的。
The remaining 40% was divided among other sects.
měi cì chū hǎi yǐ hòu ， shōu huò de dōng xī què bù yí dìng duì zì jǐ yǒu yòng ， shí yǒu ** huì jiāng qí mài dào fāng shì zhī zhōng 。
每次出海以后，收获的东西却不一定对自己有用，十有**会将其卖到坊市之中。
Every day, huge amounts of transactions took place. The market acquired various materials from treasure hunters, including skin, bones, inner organs, and even flesh, then resold them to cultivators on the mainland for crystal stones and various灵草.
cóng fāng shì huàn qǔ jīng shí ， zhè dōng xī xiāng dāng yú xiū xiān jiè de qián bì 。 ér chī ， jīn dǎo yōng yǒu de ， jiù shì wài hǎi zuì dà de fāng shì 。 tóng shí zhè lǐ yě shì xiū shì men luò jiǎo xiū xī de dì diǎn 。
从坊市换取晶石，这东西相当于修仙界的钱币。而魑，金岛拥有的，就是外海最大的坊市。同时这里也是修士们落脚休息的地点。
In essence, this market had a commercial nature and was an important industry for the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion.
cǐ fāng shì cái lì xióng hòu yǐ jí ， nǎi shì wài hǎi gè dà zōng mén jiā zú lián hé suǒ kāi ， dāng rán ， tiān yá hǎi gé zuò wèi wài hǎi yī jiā dú dà de cún zài ， zhè ge fāng shì ， tā men zú zú zhàn le liù chéng de fèn é 。
此坊市财力雄厚以极，乃是外海各大宗门家族联合所开，当然，天涯海阁做为外海一家独大的存在，这个坊市，她们足足占了六成的份额。
Although they didn't control all of it, the Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect and Lielun Valley cared little. Most of their powerful experts had already rushed to Immortal Isle, while the remaining forces were led by a few元婴 elders who moved slowly.
qí yú sì chéng ， zé bèi shèng yú gé zōng mén guā fēn 。
其余四成，则被剩余格宗门瓜分。
When passing through Jigou Island, they naturally wouldn’t miss out on such an opportunity. Not only was the market connected to the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion, but the piles of goods in the market also aroused their desire.
měi tiān de jiāo yì é ， jù dà wú bǐ ， cǐ fāng shì cóng liè bǎo xiū shì de shǒu lǐ ， shōu gòu gè zhǒng yāo shòu cái liào ， bāo kuò pí máo 、 gǔ gé 、 nèi dān 、 shèn zhì shì xuè ròu ， rán hòu zài zhuǎn shǒu mài gěi nèi lù de xiū xiān zhě ， huàn qǔ hǎi wài xiū shì jí xū de jīng shí ， yǐ jí gè zhǒng líng cǎo 。
每天的交易额，巨大无比，此坊市从猎宝修士的手里，收购各种妖兽材料，包括皮毛、骨骼、内丹、甚至是血肉，然后再转手卖给内陆的修仙者，换取海外修士急需的晶石，以及各种灵草。
There was no need for politeness; in the cultivation world, it was a matter of survival of the fittest. Thus, the two factions rushed toward Jigou Island like tigers entering a flock of sheep.
jiǎn dān de shuō ， zhè fāng shì yě jù yǒu shāng méng xìng zhì ， nǎi shì tiān yá hǎi gé de yī zhòng yào chǎn yè 。
简单的说，这坊市也具有商盟性质，乃是天涯海阁的一重要产业。
Although most of the powerful experts from both sides had gone to the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion, there were still over twenty元婴 cultivators left. Several thousand condensation core cultivators and nearly ten thousand筑基 disciples.
suī rán zhàn jù de bú shì quán bù fèn é ， dàn wàn fú zōng yǔ lì hún gǔ nǎ guǎn dé le zhè xǔ duō ， tā men jué dà bù fèn gāo shǒu yǐ tū xí yíng zhōu dǎo qù le ， shèng xià de dà duì rén mǎ zé yóu shǎo shù yuán yīng zhǎng lǎo dài lǐng ， xú xú ér xíng 。
虽然占据的不是全部份额，但万佛宗与厉魂谷哪管得了这许多，他们绝大部分高手已突袭瀛洲岛去了，剩下的大队人马则由少数元婴长老带领，徐徐而行。
With such a formidable presence, dealing with Jigou Island was like a lion hunting a rabbit; it was simple and effortless.
jīng guò kuí jīn dǎo de shí hòu ， zì rán bú huì fàng guò ， bù shuō gāi dǎo de fāng shì běn jiù yǔ tiān yá hǎi gé yǒu guān ， guāng shì fāng shì zhōng duī jī rú shān de cái huò ， jiù yǐ ràng tā men chuí xián 。
经过魁金岛的时候，自然不会放过，不说该岛的坊市本就与天涯海阁有关，光是坊市中堆积如山的财货，就已让他们垂涎。
Although the island’s array had already been activated, tens of thousands of cultivators simply threw fireballs, which were devastating. After several rounds of attacks, the禁制 broke, leading to one-sided massacres.
nà hái yǒu shén me hào kè qì ， xiū xiān jiè ruò ròu qiáng shí ， qiǎng jiù yí gè zì 。 yú shì ， liǎng pài de dà duì rén mǎ ， xiàng chī ， jīn dǎo shā lái 。
那还有什么好客气，修仙界弱肉强食，抢就一个字。于是，两派的大队人马，像魑，金岛杀来。
Coincidentally, when Lin Xuan arrived at this sea area, Jigou Island's禁制 was just broken. The large forces from Lielun Valley and Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect rushed in like tigers into sheep.
suī rán liǎng pài de jué dà bù fèn lǎo guài wù ， dōu qù le tiān yá hǎi gé ， dàn shèng yú de yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， yě hái yǒu èr shí yú rén zhī duō 。
虽然两派的绝大部分老怪物，都去了天涯海阁，但剩余的元婴期修仙者，也还有二十余人之多。
Spirits of various灵器 flew about, flames shot up, and explosions filled the air.
níng dān qī xiū shì shù qiān ， zhù jī qī dì zǐ jìn shí wàn 。
凝丹期修士数千，筑基期弟子近十万。
With his powerful divine sense, Lin Xuan naturally sensed the changes ahead. He slowed down as his light stopped.
"Little Sister Liu, you must immediately inform Uncle at the Illusory Moon Pavilion. Ask her to take charge of this matter," Su Jinchun's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he spoke in an icy tone.
"Respectful edict."
A young girl dressed in green bowed and then emitted a bright green glow before shooting out like a streak of lightning toward the Illusory Moon Pavilion.
"Deputy sisters, we must not delay. We should act quickly to counter the attack. Otherwise, with so many disciples below, they won't be able to withstand hundreds of元婴期 cultivators.

Although most of the powerful experts from both sides had gone to the Skyfarer Sea Pavilion, there were still over twenty元婴 cultivators left. Several thousand condensation core cultivators and nearly ten thousand筑基 disciples.
With such a formidable presence, dealing with Jigou Island was like a lion hunting a rabbit; it was simple and effortless.
Although the island’s array had already been activated, tens of thousands of cultivators simply threw fireballs, which were devastating. After several rounds of attacks, the禁制 broke, leading to one-sided massacres.
Coincidentally, when Lin Xuan arrived at this sea area, Jigou Island's禁制 was just broken. The large forces from Lielun Valley and Ten Thousand Buddhist Sect rushed in like tigers into sheep.
Spirits of various灵器 flew about, flames shot up, and explosions filled the air.
With his powerful divine sense, Lin Xuan naturally sensed the changes ahead. He slowed down as his light stopped.
