lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu ． yǐ jīng guò qù zhè me duō tiān le ． nà jié lóng yī jiù méi yǒu bèi liàn huà ， zài bì huàn yōu huǒ zhōng pán xuán fēi wǔ ． sì hū xiǎng yào pò ké ér chū 。
林轩眉头一皱．已经过去这么多天了．那劫龙依旧没有被炼化，在碧幻幽火中盘旋飞舞．似乎想要破壳而出。
Lin Xuan frowned. So many days had passed, and the劫龙 still hadn't been subdued; it was circling and dancing in the碧幻幽火, as if trying to break free.
kě wù ． zì jǐ tài dà yì le 。
可恶．自己太大意了。
Frustratingly, I was too careless.
lín xuān shǒu wàn fān zhuǎn ， bì huàn yōu huǒ bèi tā shōu rù dào le shēn tǐ lǐ miàn 。
林轩手腕翻转，碧幻幽火被他收入到了身体里面。
With a flick of his wrist, Lin Xuan absorbed the碧幻幽火 into his body. He couldn’t afford to use this secret technique recklessly after dealing with the劫龙; the backlash could be deadly serious. Meanwhile, the buzzing sound grew louder as the black insect cloud had already flown above him within a few feet.
zài jiāng jié lóng jiě jué yǐ dōu ， lín xuān kě bù gǎn suí yì shǐ yòng zhè mì shù ． yí dàn fǎn shì kě bú shì shuō xiào de ． ér zhè shāo yī dān gē ， wēng wū shēng dà zuò ， nà mò hēi sè de chóng yún yǐ jīng fēi dào le tóu dǐng shàng kōng 。
在将劫龙解决以都，林轩可不敢随意使用这秘术．一旦反噬可不是说笑的．而这稍一耽搁，嗡呜声大做，那墨黑色的虫云已经飞到了头顶上空。
There was no time to hide now. Lin Xuan’s eyes showed no fear. The驱虫术 might be powerful, but he could manipulate the primordial energy of heaven and earth at the离合期.
xiāng jù bù guò zhàng xǔ ． duǒ yǐ jīng lái bù jí 。
相距不过丈许．躲已经来不及。
With a wave of his sleeve, the surrounding primordial energies rushed towards the center, forming a white whirlwind in his vision.
bù guò lín xuān yǎn zhōng bìng wú jù yì ， qū chóng shù gù rán wēi lì wú bǐ ． dàn lí hé qī xiū shì kě yǐ cāo zòng tiān dì yuán qì 。
不过林轩眼中并无惧意，驱虫术固然威力无比．但离合期修士可以操纵天地元气。
The whirlwind spanned over ten feet in diameter, enveloping Lin Xuan’s entire body. However, this so-called "whirlwind" was actually composed of countless ice blades, each about the size of a palm.
xiù páo yī fú ． sì zhōu de tiān dì yuán qì fēng kuáng de cháo zhe zhōng jiān níng jù ． yī dào bái méng méng de kuí fēng chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
袖袍一拂．四周的天地元气疯狂的朝着中间凝聚．一道白蒙蒙的魁风出现在了视线里。
Rotating and swirling, these blades created a formidable barrier. Lin Xuan cast a spell, and the primordial energy surged into his 青火剑. In an instant, the sword grew to over a thousand feet long, far more powerful than any元婴期巨剑术.
lián tiān àn dì ， zhí jìng zú yǒu zhàng xǔ ． jiāng lín xuān de zhěng gè shēn tǐ ． quán dōu bāo guǒ jìn qù 。
连天按地，直径足有丈许．将林轩的整个身体．全都包裹进去。
A single strike could cleave through heaven and earth. The sheer force of it was overwhelming; even before the blade moved, the pressure alone was immense. Glowing runes flickered on the surface of the 青火剑 as Lin Xuan had finally reached a level where he could touch the laws of the universe.
rán ér zhè suǒ wèi de “ fēng ”， qí shí shì yóu wú shù de bīng dāo zǔ chéng de ， měi yī kuài bīng dāo ， yuē yǒu bā zhǎng dà xiǎo 。
然而这所谓的“风”，其实是由无数的冰刀组成的，每一块冰刀，约有巴掌大小。
The 百虫真人的 face showed surprise. While he had seen this technique before, it usually required a cultivator at the peak of the initial stage of the离合期 to perform.
xuán zhuǎn shǎn shuò ， huì jù zài yì qǐ ． qí wēi lì yuǎn bú shì pǔ tōng de jù fēng kě bǐ 。
旋转闪烁，汇聚在一起．其威力远不是普通的飓风可比。
How is that possible? Could it be that the rumors were wrong, and Lin Xuan wasn’t just promoted recently?
nà chóng yún là xià yǐ hòu ， jiù fǎng fú fēi é pū huǒ ， bèi bīng dāo xíng chéng de xuán fēng jiǎo chéng fěn mò 。
那虫云落下以后，就仿佛飞蛾扑火，被冰刀形成的旋风搅成粉末。
His thoughts raced as he quickly took out another灵兽袋 from his waist. A buzzing sound filled the air as a black insect cloud appeared above him, covering only an acre but containing over ten thousand insects.
rán ér shèng xià de mó chóng què yī jiù hàn bù wèi sǐ ． lín xuān méi tóu wēi zhòu ， yǐn yǐn jué de yǒu xiē bù ān ． duì fāng jìng xiàng shì pài zhè xiē mó chóng lái sòng sǐ shì de 。
然而剩下的魔虫却依旧悍不畏死．林轩眉头微皱，隐隐觉得有些不安．对方竟像是派这些魔虫来送死似的。
Lin Xuan’s eyes widened in shock. These were 天魔蚁, ranked ninth on the list of human world spirit beasts. Legend had it that these creatures originated from the demon realm and were brought to this world by ancient demons during the primordial era.
dàn cǐ shí cǐ kè ． nǎ lǐ hái néng tuì suō 、 lín xuān yǐ shì chéng qí hǔ ． zhǐ néng xīn zhōng duō jiā jǐ fēn jǐng tì bà le 。
但此时此刻．哪里还能退缩、林轩已势成骑虎．只能心中多加几分警惕罢了。
These insects were incredibly tough; they barely feared the impact of elemental spells and even resisted most magical treasures. Moreover, they could emit flames, making them nearly impossible to kill unless one possessed an extremely advanced ice attribute technique.
suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， zhěng gè chóng yún yǐ jiǎn shǎo le sān fēn zhī yī ， máng miè diào de shì xuè wén shǔ yǐ wàn jì ， fāng yuán shù lǐ ． dōu mí màn zhe yī gǔ nóng nóng de xuè xīng zhī qì 。
随着时间的推移，整个虫云已减少了三分之一，氓灭掉的噬血蚊数以万计，方圆数里．都弥漫着一股浓浓的血腥之气。
Lin Xuan had mastered the 凤舞九天诀, allowing him to use all five elements, but he was only proficient in wood attributes; the others were just passable.
qǐ chū ， qīng páo lǎo zhě fù shǒu ér lì ． kàn xiàng lín xuān de biǎo qíng ． chōng mǎn le lián mǐn ． rán ér suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ． tā liǎn shàng de xiào róng què jiàn jiàn jiāng yìng 。
起初，青袍老者负手而立．看向林轩的表情．充满了怜悯．然而随着时间的推移．他脸上的笑容却渐渐僵硬。
Frustrated, Lin Xuan cast a spell. The 青火剑 glowed with intense light as it charged towards his opponent.
“ bù kě néng ． nǐ zěn me huì méi shì ？”
“不可能．你怎么会没事？”
Attacking was the best defense. How could these demons resist? Let’s see how they handle my treasure.
“ ó ． nà dào yǒu rèn wéi wǒ yīng gāi rú hé ？” lín xuān mù guāng zài sì zhōu sǎo guò ． yǎn zhōng yǐn yǐn yǐ yǒu le jǐ fēn liǎo rán zhī sè 。
“哦．那道友认为我应该如何？”林轩目光在四周扫过．眼中隐隐已有了几分了然之色。
"Quickly!"
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， tā bèi jù dà de xuè wū bāo guǒ ， zài nà è chòu zhī zhōng hái jiā zá yǒu jù dú ． xīn hǎo zì jǐ xiū liàn le bì huàn yōu huǒ ． suī bù gǎn shuō bǎi dú bù qīn 、 dàn rén jiè néng gòu shāng hài dào tā de dú sù ． què yě qū zhǐ kě shǔ 。
此时此刻，他被巨大的血污包裹，在那恶臭之中还夹杂有剧毒．辛好自己修炼了碧幻幽火．虽不敢说百毒不侵、但人界能够伤害到他的毒素．却也屈指可数。
The 百虫真人 didn’t dodge; instead, he pointed at the insect cloud above him.
lǎo guài wù de rú yì suàn pán ． bú yòng shuō ， shì yī xià zi luò kōng 。
老怪物的如意算盘．不用说，是一下子落空。
A buzzing sound filled the air as the insect cloud transformed into a shield. Could it be…
zuò wèi lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ． yòu zěn me kě néng sì yǎng pǔ tōng de mó chóng 。
做为离合期修仙者．又怎么可能饲养普通的魔虫。
Lin Xuan was surprised. Although ancient texts mentioned that 天魔蚁 had formidable defenses and could withstand ordinary magical treasures, he was now a peak initial stage cultivator in the human world. Could this demon insect really withstand his treasure?
yào zhī dào shì xuè wén ， suī bù néng shuō ruò bù jīn fēng ， dàn zài líng chóng bǎng shàng pái dào èr bǎi míng kāi wài ． kěn dìng bù néng shuō shì shén me lì hài de mó chóng 。
要知道噬血蚊，虽不能说弱不禁风，但在灵虫榜上排到二百名开外．肯定不能说是什么厉害的魔虫。
Wasn’t it possible? But without confidence, the 百虫真人 wouldn’t have taken such a risk.
dāng rán ． èr shí wàn de guī mó ， hái shì lìng rén cè mù ． bù guò yě zhǐ gòu duì fù yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， yù jiàn tóng jiē lǎo guài wù ， zuò yòng kěn dìng shì bù dà de 。
当然．二十万的规模，还是令人侧目．不过也只够对付元婴期修仙者，遇见同阶老怪物，作用肯定是不大的。
Lin Xuan took a deep breath as primordial energy surged into the 青火剑.
jiù xiàng yǎn qián ． lín xuān yòng shuǐ yuán qì xíng chéng jù fēng 、 shèn zhì bù yòng jì chū bǎo wù ． jiù qīng yì miè shā le zhè xiē mó chóng 。
就像眼前．林轩用水元气形成飓风、甚至不用祭出宝物．就轻易灭杀了这些魔虫。
Boom!
zuò wèi yù líng zōng tài shàng zhǎng lǎo ． huà le yī qiān wǔ shǒu yú nián de lǎo guài wù ， duì shì xuè wén de yōu liè zhī chù ． bǎi chóng zhēn rén zì rán yì qīng èr chǔ 。
做为御灵宗太上长老．话了一千五首余年的老怪物，对噬血蚊的优劣之处．百虫真人自然一清二楚。
A loud explosion echoed through the air as the 青火剑 struck with immense force. The space itself seemed to distort at the moment of impact.
suǒ yǐ tā sì yǎng de zhè xiē ． qí shí shì biàn yì líng chóng 。
所以他饲养的这些．其实是变异灵虫。
However, what followed left Lin Xuan in shock; the shield showed no cracks despite the powerful blow. The 天魔蚁 had blocked his attack.
suǒ wèi biàn yì líng chóng ， qí shí yòu fēn wéi le liǎng zhǒng 。
所谓变异灵虫，其实又分为了两种。
How is that possible?
yī zhǒng shì zài zì rán tiáo jiàn xià ， yīn wèi mǒu xiē yuán gù ， fā shēng le yì cháng biàn huà de 。
一种是在自然条件下，因为某些缘故，发生了异常变化的。
Despite his initial doubts, the reality before him was too shocking for Lin Xuan to believe. There were spirit beasts so hard that they could withstand such attacks.
zhè zhǒng biàn yì líng chóng ， yǒu de huì dé dào tè shū shén tōng ． dàn yǒu de ． què bǐ yǐ qián gèng ruò ， dì èr zhǒng ． zé shì líng chóng rèn zhǔ yǐ hòu ． xiū shì zài sì yǎng de guò chéng zhōng ， yòng rén wéi de fāng fǎ ràng tā men biàn dé yǔ zhòng bù tóng 。
这种变异灵虫，有的会得到特殊神通．但有的．却比以前更弱，第二种．则是灵虫认主以后．修士在饲养的过程中，用人为的方法让它们变得与众不同。
The battle wasn’t over yet, and there was no time for Lin Xuan to be stunned.
zhè zhǒng biàn yì líng chóng ． yì bān lái shuō ． shí lì dū huì bǐ yǐ qián gèng gǔ yī chóu 。
这种变异灵虫．一般来说．实力都会比以前更股一筹。
A buzzing sound filled the air as a long spear appeared from the shield. The驱虫术 had transformed into various shapes, creating magical treasures at will.
bǐ rú shuō shì xuè wén ， jīng guò bǎi chóng zhēn rén yī fān péi yǎng zhī hòu ， qǔ gèng jiā fēng kuáng ． ér qiě hái dài shàng le jù dú 。
比如说噬血蚊，经过百虫真人一番培养之后，取更加疯狂．而且还带上了剧毒。
Lin Xuan’s eyes widened in amazement despite the danger he faced. "Boy, do you really think you can stop my 天魔蚁? Die!"
yù jiàn tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě ， jí shǐ néng jiāng chóng yún miè chú ． dàn zài bù zhī bù jué zhī zhōng ， yě huì shēn zhōng jù dú 。
遇见同阶修仙者，即使能将虫云灭除．但在不知不觉之中，也会身中剧毒。
Before Lin Xuan could react, a long spear flashed like lightning and aimed directly at him.
dǎ suàn yuán běn bù cuò ． kě sú huà shuō ． lǔ shuǐ diǎn dòu fǔ ， yī wù xiáng yī wù ， yù jiàn lín xuān zhè bǎi dú bù qīn de jiā huo ， bǎi chóng zhēn rén yě zhǐ néng zì rèn dǎo méi 。
打算原本不错．可俗话说．卤水点豆腐，一物降一物，遇见林轩这百毒不侵的家伙，百虫真人也只能自认倒霉。
"Ah..."
tā de liǎn sè biàn dé yīn sài yǐ jí ． dàn lín xuān kě bù huì shǎ shǎ de děng zhe tā xià yī bō gōng jī 。
他的脸色变得阴赛以极．但林轩可不会傻傻的等着他下一波攻击。
Lin Xuan’s pupils contracted as he didn’t know how powerful these insects would be when they condensed into magical treasures. He wouldn’t dare to face it head-on.
zì jǐ kě méi yǒu zhàn zhe ái dǎ de dào lǐ ， jì rán sī pò liǎn pí ， nà jiù shì bù sǐ bù xiū de jié jú 。
自己可没有站着挨打的道理，既然撕破脸皮，那就是不死不休的结局。
Without hesitation, he used the 九天微步, disappearing from his original position.
xiù páo yī fú ． qīng huǒ jiàn yǐ yú yóu ér chū 。
袖袍一拂．青火剑已鱼游而出。
Since entering the 离合期, the 九天微步 had become even more mysterious and powerful, surpassing instantaneous teleportation in some ways. However, compared to the legendary破空闪, it was still slightly inferior.
lín xuān yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū ， sì zhōu de tiān tā yuán qì fēng kuáng yǒng rù 。
林轩一道法诀打出，四周的天她元气疯狂涌入。
The 百虫真人的 expression turned serious as he frowned deeply. This Lin Xuan, though just promoted to 离合期, knew a lot. But escaping from his hands was nothing but a daydream.
jǐn jǐn shùn xī de gōng fu ， qīng huǒ jiù bào zhǎng dào qiān yú zhàng zhǎng ， rú cǐ shēng shì 、 gēn běn jiù bú shì yuán yīng qī de jù jiàn shù kě bǐ 。
仅仅瞬息的功夫，青火就暴涨到千余丈长，如此声势、根本就不是元婴期的巨剑术可比。
With a wave of his sleeve, a pale silver talisman appeared before him.
yī jiàn xià qù ， fǎng fú kě yǐ kāi tiān pī dì 。
一剑下去，仿佛可以开天劈地。
This talisman was entirely different from the ones Lin Xuan had seen before; it had strange symbols and patterns. Despite being in a hurry, he couldn’t recognize any of them.
jiàn wèi dòng ， guāng shì wēi yā jiù fēi tóng xiǎo kě 、 zài qīng huǒ biǎo miàn ． jìng yǐn yǐn yǒu fú wén zài tūn tǔ liú zhuǎn zhe ， jìn rù lí hé yǐ hòu ， lín xuān zhōng yú kě yǐ chù jí tiān dì fǎ zé 。
剑未动，光是威压就非同小可、在青火表面．竟隐隐有符文在吞吐流转着，进入离合以后，林轩终于可以触及天地法则。
The 百虫真人的 face showed hesitation. This boundary talisman was something he had struggled to obtain.
dāng rán ． hái fēi cháng mó hú ， yuǎn dá bú dào kě yǐ yùn yòng de dì bù ． dàn lín xuān yǐ cóng zhōng dé dào xǔ duō hǎo chù 。
当然．还非常模糊，远达不到可以运用的地步．但林轩已从中得到许多好处。
Boundary talismans were similar to array talismans and beast soul talismans—special types of talismans passed down from the upper realms. In ancient times, only a few master forgers could make them, and they had long since disappeared.
bǎi chóng zhēn rén de liǎn shàng yě liú lù chū yī sī yà sè ． zhè zhǒng shén tōng ， tā suī rán jiàn guò ． dàn yì bān dōu yào lí hé chū qī dǐng fēng de xiū xiān zhě cái néng shī zhǎn de 。
百虫真人的脸上也流露出一丝讶色．这种神通，他虽然见过．但一般都要离合初期顶峰的修仙者才能施展的。
Their primary function was limited but their power far exceeded ordinary talismans. If used properly, they could significantly aid in magical battles; however, if misused, it would be sheer waste.
zěn me kě néng ？
怎么可能？
Although the 百虫真人 hesitated, he quickly regained his resolve as he waved his sleeve. The boundary talisman began to levitate naturally.
nán dào chuán yán yǒu wù ． zhè lín xiǎo zi bìng bú shì gāng gāng cái jìn jí de 。
难道传言有误．这林小子并不是刚刚才晋级的。
Even though Lin Xuan was constantly using the 九天微步, he paid attention to what the other party was doing. His sense of caution increased, but strangely, no attacks came.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ． dàn tā dòng zuò què yì diǎn yě bù màn ， shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài yāo jiān yī zhāi ， yòu yí gè líng shòu dài bèi tā jì le qǐ lái 。
脑海中念头转过．但他动作却一点也不慢，伸出手来，在腰间一摘，又一个灵兽袋被他祭了起来。
Lin Xuan became puzzled until a strange wave spread out, and his 九天微步 failed. The 天魔蚁 had already flown in front of him.
Lin Xuan frowned. So many days had passed, and the劫龙 still hadn't been subdued; it was circling and dancing in the碧幻幽火, as if trying to break free.
Frustratingly, I was too careless.
With a flick of his wrist, Lin Xuan absorbed the碧幻幽火 into his body. He couldn’t afford to use this secret technique recklessly after dealing with the劫龙; the backlash could be deadly serious.
