mǎ jìn hé zhōu liáng hún shēn lěng hàn zhí mào ， lián máng zhǐ huī zhe líng qì duì zhè guǐ yì de yāo wù yī zhèn luàn hōng ， kě nà hēi guāng què jiān gù wú bǐ ， liǎng rén dǎ le bàn tiān yě jǐn jǐn shì ràng tā yǒu xiē yáo huàng ér yǐ 。
马进和周良浑身冷汗直冒，连忙指挥着灵器对这诡异的妖物一阵乱轰，可那黑光却坚固无比，两人打了半天也仅仅是让它有些摇晃而已。
Ma Jin and Zhou Liang were drenched in cold sweat, hastily commanding their spirit artifacts to bombard the strange beast. However, the black light was incredibly sturdy; after half a day of fighting, it only managed to make the creature sway slightly.
zhī zhū yǐ jīng yǒu dà bàn róng jìn le zhōu liáng de shī tǐ ， bèi kǎn diào de tóu lú yě chóng xīn ān zhuāng shàng le ， yǎn zhōng fàng shè chū guǐ yì de hóng guāng ， zuǐ jiǎo wēi wēi shàng qiào ， chōng zhe liǎng rén lěng xiào 。
蜘蛛已经有大半融进了周良的尸体，被砍掉的头颅也重新安装上了，眼中放射出诡异的红光，嘴角微微上翘，冲着两人冷笑。
The spider had already integrated most of its body into Zhou Liang's corpse, with its head reattached and glowing with an eerie red light from its eyes. Its lips curled upwards as it sneered at the two men.
“ mā ya ！” mǎ jìn yī shēng jiān jiào ， tū rán niǔ tóu jiù pǎo 。
“妈呀！”马进一声尖叫，突然扭头就跑。
"Ah!" Ma Jin screamed, suddenly turning around and running away.
“ shī dì ， nǐ ……”
“师弟，你……”
"Junior brother, you..."
huáng zhōng yòu jīng yòu nù ， yǎn qián de yāo wù suī rán guǐ yì ， dàn píng zhe zì jǐ èr rén de xiū wèi jiā shàng zhè wǔ hǔ qún yáng zhèn wèi bì méi yǒu yī pīn zhī lì ， tā zhèng xiǎng hè zhǐ ， kě gāng gāng niǔ guò tóu ， què jué de bó zi yī liáng ， rán hòu biàn kàn jiàn zì jǐ de shēn tǐ xiàng hòu dào qù 。
黄钟又惊又怒，眼前的妖物虽然诡异，但凭着自己二人的修为加上这五虎群羊阵未必没有一拼之力，他正想喝止，可刚刚扭过头，却觉得脖子一凉，然后便看见自己的身体向后倒去。
Huang Zhong was both shocked and angry. Despite the strange nature of this creature, their combined cultivation levels might give them a chance against it. Just as he was about to stop him, his neck suddenly felt cold, and his body began to fall backward.
“ nán dào wǒ ……” tā gāng gāng xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， jiù shī qù le yì shí 。
“难道我……”他刚刚想到这里，就失去了意识。
"Could I..." He barely had time to think before losing consciousness.
zhè shí ，“ zhōu liáng ” yǐ jīng zhàn le qǐ lái ， zhāng kāi zuǐ ， jiāng fēi lái de yī lǚ hēi máng tūn le jìn qù ， gāng cái zhèng shì zhè ge dōng xī yào le huáng zhōng de xiǎo mìng 。
这时，“周良”已经站了起来，张开嘴，将飞来的一缕黑芒吞了进去，刚才正是这个东西要了黄钟的小命。
At that moment, "Zhou Liang" stood up, opened his mouth, and swallowed the black ray that flew towards him—this was what had taken Huang Zhong's life just now.
cǐ shí ， yuè mó zhī zhū de shēn tǐ yǐ jīng wán quán yǔ zhōu liáng róng hé ， rán ér què kàn bú dào yāo shòu de hén jì ， jǐn jǐn shì tā de xiōng kǒu fù bù duō le yī xiē jīn sè de tiáo wén 。
此时，月魔蜘蛛的身体已经完全与周良融合，然而却看不到妖兽的痕迹，仅仅是他的胸口腹部多了一些金色的条纹。
Now, the spider's body was fully merged with Zhou Liang, but there were no signs of a beast. Instead, some golden stripes appeared on its chest and abdomen.
kàn zhe zhèng dùn guāng fēi táo de mǎ jìn ， zhōu liáng liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī lěng xiào ：“ zài běn zǔ shī miàn qián yě xiǎng pǎo ？”
看着正遁光飞逃的马进，周良脸上露出一丝冷笑：“在本祖师面前也想跑？”
Seeing Ma Jin fleeing in a flash of light, Zhou Liang sneered: "Do you think you can run from this senior?"
tái qǐ shǒu ， cóng zhǐ jiān shàng shè chū yī lǚ hēi máng ， nà hēi máng lí shǒu yǐ hòu ， lì kè biàn dà ， huà wèi le yī gēn hēi sè de jiàn shǐ ， yǐ xùn léi bù jí yǎn ěr de sù dù ， zhuī shàng le mǎ jìn de dùn guāng ， bìng xiàng shè niǎo yī yàng ， jiāng tā cóng bàn kōng zhōng shè luò 。$ rán hòu ， zhōu liáng zhuǎn guò tóu ， kàn le yī yǎn lín xuān de shēn tǐ ， gā gā de guài xiào le qǐ lái ：“ xiǎo zi ， nǐ de huàn shù bù cuò ， dàn zài běn zǔ shī miàn qián 。 jiù bú yào mài nòng le 。”
抬起手，从指尖上射出一缕黑芒，那黑芒离手以后，立刻变大，化为了一跟黑色的箭矢，以迅雷不及掩耳的速度，追上了马进的遁光，并像射鸟一样，将他从半空中射落。$然后，周良转过头，看了一眼林轩的身体，嘎嘎的怪笑了起来：“小子，你的幻术不错，但在本祖师面前。就不要卖弄了。”
He raised his hand, shooting out a black ray that instantly grew into a black arrow, chasing after Ma Jin's flash of light with lightning speed. It shot him down like an arrow through the air. Then, Zhou Liang turned to look at Lin Xuan's body and cackled: "Brat, your illusion technique is good, but in front of this senior, you can't show off."
shuō zhe xiù páo yī fú ， yī zhèn yīn fēng chuī guò ， huàn shù bèi pò chú ， dì shàng nǎ hái yǒu shén me shī tǐ 。 fēn míng jiù shì yī jù bèi qiè chéng liǎng bàn de kuǐ lěi jiǎ rén bà le 。
说着袖袍一拂，一阵阴风吹过，幻术被破除，地上哪还有什么尸体。分明就是一具被切成两半的傀儡假人罢了。
With a wave of his sleeves, a gust of cold wind blew away the illusion, revealing that there were no bodies on the ground. Clearly, it was just a puppet half-cut into two pieces.
bù yuǎn chù yuán běn kōng wú yī wù de kōng qì zhōng ， tū rán rú tóng shuǐ bō yī yàng dì huàng dòng qǐ lái ， lín xuān shén sè yīn chén de chū xiàn ， yī yán bù fā de dīng zhuó yǎn qián de guài wù 。
不远处原本空无一物的空气中，突然如同水波一样地晃动起来，林轩神色阴沉的出现，一言不发的盯着眼前的怪物。
Not far away, the air suddenly rippled like water waves as Lin Xuan appeared with a grim expression, staring intently at the monster before him.
zǎo jiù chá jué chū liǎng gè xiū zhēn zhě xīn huái guǐ tāi ， yǐ jīng yǒu suǒ jǐng tì dì lín xuān zì rán bú huì bèi tā men àn suàn ， nà zhèn qí néng gòu kùn zhù zhōu liáng ， dàn lín xuān què yòng “ jiǔ tiān xuán gōng ” zhōng suǒ jì zǎi de yī zhǒng míng wèi dǒu zhuǎn xīng yí de mì shù ， yòng kuǐ lěi fú tì dài le zì jǐ 。
早就察觉出两个修真者心怀鬼胎，已经有所警惕地林轩自然不会被他们暗算，那阵旗能够困住周良，但林轩却用“九天玄功”中所记载的一种名为斗转星移的秘术，用傀儡符替代了自己。
Lin Xuan had long sensed the suspicious intentions of these cultivators and was naturally not taken off guard. The array flag could trap Zhou Liang, but he used a secret technique called "passage of time" (Star Shift) from the Nine Heavens Profound Scripture to replace himself with a puppet talisman.
yuán běn lín xuān xiǎng chèn duì fāng guò lái jiǎn chǔ wù dài de shí hòu ， zài jiāng liǎng rén jī shā 。 jì rán tā men xiān qǐ dǎi yì ， nà yě jiù bié guài zì jǐ shǒu là 。**
原本林轩想趁对方过来拣储物袋的时候，再将两人击杀。既然他们先起歹意，那也就别怪自己手辣。**
Originally, Lin Xuan planned to kill them both when they came for his storage bag. Since they had initiated hostilities first, he wouldn't be too lenient on them.
rán ér yì biàn tū qǐ ， nà sǐ qù de yuè mó zhī zhū jìng rán fù huó ， ér qiě yǔ zhōu liáng de shī shēn hé wèi yī tǐ ， lín xuān tà rù xiū zhēn jiè yě yǒu shù nián ， kě zhè me guǐ yì de shì qíng què cóng suǒ wèi jiàn 。
然而异变突起，那死去的月魔蜘蛛竟然复活，而且与周良的尸身合为一体，林轩踏入修真界也有数年，可这么诡异的事情却从所未见。
However, an unexpected change occurred as the dead moon demon spider resurrected and merged with Zhou Liang's corpse. This was a bizarre occurrence that Lin Xuan hadn't seen in years, regardless of whether this creature was a ghost or a monster—it posed a significant challenge.
bù guǎn yǎn qián zhè jiā huo shì guǐ hái shì yāo guài ， dōu shì xiāng dāng jí shǒu de cún zài 。
不管眼前这家伙是鬼还是妖怪，都是相当棘手的存在。
Seeing Lin Xuan appear, he showed no signs of panic, which surprised Zhou Liang. He cackled: "You brat, your composure is good, but you're just unlucky to meet me."
jiàn lín xuān xiàn shēn yǐ hòu 。 liǎn shàng què bìng méi yǒu shén me huāng zhāng de shén sè ， zhōu liáng dǎo shì yǒu xiē yì wài ， gā gā dì guài xiào le qǐ lái ：“ nǐ zhè xiǎo zi ， dìng lì dǎo shì bù cuò ， kě xī yù jiàn běn zǔ shī 。 zhǐ néng suàn nǐ yùn qì bù hǎo le 。” shuō wán tái qǐ shǒu lái ， wú shù hēi máng chán rào zài zhǐ jiān ， huà wèi le shù gēn hēi sè de zhǎng jiàn 。
见林轩现身以后。脸上却并没有什么慌张的神色，周良倒是有些意外，嘎嘎地怪笑了起来：“你这小子，定力倒是不错，可惜遇见本祖师。只能算你运气不好了。”说完抬起手来，无数黑芒缠绕在指尖，化为了数根黑色的长箭。
He raised his hand and countless black rays coiled around his fingertips, transforming into several black arrows.
lín xuān zì rán bú huì shǎ děng zhe tā chū zhāo ， piāo shēn xiàng hòu tuì qù 。
林轩自然不会傻等着他出招，飘身向后退去。
Lin Xuan didn't wait for him to attack; he retreated with a light step.
“ hēng ， xiǎng pǎo ！”
“哼，想跑！”
"Hmph, trying to run!"
nà guài wù yī shēng lěng xiào ， hēi sè de jiàn shǐ kuài rú shǎn diàn ， xiàng zhe lín xuān fēi le guò lái ， jī hū zhǎ yǎn jiù dào le miàn qián ， lín xuān xīn zhōng yī jīng ， lián máng shuǎi shǒu rēng chū le shù zhāng fú 。
那怪物一声冷笑，黑色的箭矢快如闪电，向着林轩飞了过来，几乎眨眼就到了面前，林轩心中一惊，连忙甩手扔出了数张符。
The monster sneered, the black arrows flying like lightning towards Lin Xuan, almost reaching him in an instant. Lin Xuan was startled and quickly threw out several talismans.
hōng lōng lóng de bào zhà chuán lái 。 suī rán zhè shì zuì dī jí de huǒ qiú shù ， dàn yě chéng gōng de jiāng jiàn shǐ zǔ le yī zǔ ， chèn zhe zhè ge shí jiān ， lín xuān wǎng zì jǐ shēn shàng jiā le yí gè qīng shēn shù ， tóng shí jiāng yù fēng jué zhǎn kāi ， gǎi biàn fāng xiàng ， cháo zhe zuǒ hòu fāng jí tuì 。
轰隆隆的爆炸传来。虽然这是最低级的火球术，但也成功的将箭矢阻了一阻，趁着这个时间，林轩往自己身上加了一个轻身术，同时将御风诀展开，改变方向，朝着左后方急退。
Explosions echoed as these were basic fireballs. They managed to slow down the arrows, giving Lin Xuan time to add a lightness technique to his body while unfolding the Wind Control Technique to change direction and retreat towards the left rear.
kě nà hēi sè de jiàn shǐ ， què yǒu rú zhǎng le yǎn jīng yī yàng 。 suí hòu zhuī dào 。 rán ér jiù yào shè zhōng lín xuān dì shí hòu ， tā de miàn qián 。 què tū rán mào chū yī céng dàn qīng sè de guāng mù ， jiāng qí dǎng xià ， tóng shí lín xuān de shēn yǐng yě xiāo shī le 。
可那黑色的箭矢，却有如长了眼睛一样。随后追到。然而就要射中林轩地时候，他的面前。却突然冒出一层淡青色的光幕，将其挡下，同时林轩的身影也消失了。
However, the black arrow seemed to have eyes, pursuing him relentlessly. Just before it hit Lin Xuan, a faint blue light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the arrow, and Lin Xuan vanished.
“ zhèn fǎ ！”
“阵法！”
"Array!"
zhōu liáng dīng zhuó yǎn qián kōng wú yī wù de kòng dì ， chén sī le qǐ lái ， tā méi xiǎng dào ， zhè ge shào nián jū rán hái liú yǒu hòu shǒu ， zài zhè lǐ ， jū rán yě bù xià le yí gè wēi lì pǒ dà dì zhèn fǎ 。
周良盯着眼前空无一物的空地，沉思了起来，他没想到，这个少年居然还留有后手，在这里，居然也布下了一个威力颇大地阵法。
Zhou Liang stared at the empty ground, pondering. He hadn't expected this young man to have a backup plan; he had set up an array here with considerable power.
“ bù guò píng zhè ge ， jiù xiǎng yào zǔ dǎng běn zǔ shī ma ？”
“不过凭这个，就想要阻挡本祖师吗？”
"But do you think you can stop me with just that?"
zhōu liáng níng xiào yī shēng guò hòu ， shēn tǐ zhōu wéi tū rán mào chū zhàng xǔ gāo de hēi máng ， bìng zì yán zì yǔ de dào ：“ zhè xiū shì yǔ yāo shòu xuè ròu jié hé ér chéng de xīn shēn tǐ ， suī rán wú fǎ hé yǐ qián de fǎ shēn xiāng bǐ ， dàn xiǎng yào miè diào nǐ zhè ge xiǎo bèi ， hái shì chuò chuò yǒu yú 。”
周良狞笑一声过后，身体周围突然冒出丈许高的黑芒，并自言自语的道：“这修士与妖兽血肉结合而成的新身体，虽然无法和以前的法身相比，但想要灭掉你这个小辈，还是绰绰有余。”
Zhou Liang grinned as his body suddenly emitted several feet-high black rays and muttered: "This new body formed from the fusion of a cultivator's and a beast's flesh, although not as powerful as my previous form, should be sufficient to destroy this junior."
tā shuāng shǒu jié le yí gè qí tè de fǎ yìn ， lián lián biàn huàn ， rán hòu hēi máng biàn cóng shēn tǐ zhōu wéi fēn lí chū lái ， huà wèi le yí gè jù dà zhī zhū de mú yàng ， xiàng zhe qián fāng pū le guò qù 。
他双手结了一个奇特的法印，连连变幻，然后黑芒便从身体周围分离出来，化为了一个巨大蜘蛛的模样，向着前方扑了过去。
He formed an odd hand seal, changing it repeatedly. The black rays separated from his body, transforming into a giant spider that lunged forward.
gāng fēi le shí jǐ zhàng yuǎn ， fǎng fú jiù chù dòng le jìn zhì ， qián fāng yī xià zi chū xiàn yí gè yóu chì chéng huáng lǜ qīng lán zǐ gè sè qí guāng zǔ chéng de jù dà guāng zhào ， jiāng zhěng piàn kòng dì dōu lǒng zhào zài lǐ miàn 。
刚飞了十几丈远，仿佛就触动了禁制，前方一下子出现一个由赤橙黄绿青蓝紫各色奇光组成的巨大光罩，将整片空地都笼罩在里面。
After flying several dozen feet, it seemed to trigger some kind of restriction, and the front suddenly appeared with a large dome composed of various colored lights—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet—which enveloped the entire area.
jiàn le zhè yí mù ， nà zì chēng zǔ shī de guài wù bù yōu fǎn xǐ ， zhōng yú pò chū le zhèn fǎ de zhēn miàn mù ， xiàn zài zhǐ yào yīn bìng jiù yī ， jiāng tā pò qù jiù kě yǐ 。
见了这一幕，那自称祖师的怪物不忧反喜，终于迫出了阵法的真面目，现在只要因病就医，将它破去就可以。
Seeing this scene, the monster who called himself a senior was relieved. Finally, he had revealed the true nature of the array; all that was left was to break it.
shuāng shǒu lián huī ， yòu dǎ chū le shù dào fǎ jué ， dùn shí ， nà yóu hēi máng huàn huà chū dì zhī zhū tǐ jī bào zhǎng le yí bèi ， huī wǔ zhe lì zhuǎ ， è hěn hěn de zhuàng xiàng le guāng zhào 。
双手连挥，又打出了数道法诀，顿时，那由黑芒幻化出地蜘蛛体积暴涨了一倍，挥舞着利爪，恶狠狠的撞向了光罩。
With several hand gestures, he summoned more magical techniques, causing the spider made from black rays to double in size and fiercely swing its claws at the light dome.
nà guāng zhào huǎng le yī huǎng ， bìng méi yǒu bèi zhī zhū sī liè ， fǎn ér yǎn shēng chū yī dào dào wǎn kǒu cū de shǎn diàn ， jiāng qí láo láo kùn zhù ， bìng dà yǒu jiāng qí jī suì de yì tú 。
那光罩晃了一晃，并没有被蜘蛛撕裂，反而衍生出一道道碗口粗的闪电，将其牢牢困住，并大有将其击碎的意图。
The light dome shook but wasn't torn apart. Instead, it generated several lightning bolts as thick as bowls, trapping and aiming to destroy the spider.
guài wù biǎo qíng yī hán ：“ jiǔ gōng bā guà zhèn ？”
怪物表情一寒：“九宫八卦阵？”
The monster's expression turned grim: "Nine Palaces Array?"
shāo yī chén yín ， tā de yǎn zhōng shǎn guò xiōng guāng ， zhāng kāi kǒu ， cóng zuǐ lǐ tǔ chū yī kē qī hēi sè de xiǎo zhū ， guài wù de biǎo qíng ， biàn dé zhèng zhòng ， yī shēn shǒu ， jiāng xiǎo zhū wò zài zhǎng zhōng ， rán hòu tā de nà zhǐ shǒu ， jiù kāi shǐ zhàn fàng chū duó mù dì guāng máng 。
稍一沉吟，他的眼中闪过凶光，张开口，从嘴里吐出一颗漆黑色的小珠，怪物的表情，变得郑重，一伸手，将小珠握在掌中，然后他的那只手，就开始绽放出夺目地光芒。
After a moment of thought, his eyes flashed with ferocity. He opened his mouth and spat out a small black bead. His expression became serious as he grabbed the bead in his hand. Then, his hand began to emit dazzling light.
yī tuán hēi zhōng dài zhe jīn sè dì huǒ yàn ， bèi tā xū tuō le qǐ lái 。
一团黑中带着金色地火焰，被他虚托了起来。
A flame of black mixed with gold was levitated before him.
“ xiǎo zi ， ràng nǐ cháng cháng wǒ zhè sān yīn mó huǒ de lì hài ！”
“小子，让你尝尝我这三阴魔火的厉害！”
"Brat, let you taste the power of my Three Yin Demon Fire!"
zhèn fǎ zhōng ， lín xuān wēi wēi zhòu méi ， jiàn duì fāng tuī chū nà sè cǎi guǐ yì dì huǒ yàn ， tā yě jiāng tǐ nèi de fǎ lì níng jù le qǐ lái 。
阵法中，林轩微微皱眉，见对方推出那色彩诡异地火焰，他也将体内的法力凝聚了起来。
Inside the array, Lin Xuan frowned as he gathered his spiritual energy.
bīng zhēn jué ！
冰针诀！
Ice Needle Technique!
kōng zhōng chū xiàn le yī lǚ lǚ de hán qì ， yǐ lín xuān xiàn zài de xiū wèi ， qīng yì jiù níng jié chū le shàng qiān gēn bīng zhēn ， rán hòu yíng zháo mó huǒ ， jiāng zhè fǎ shù yòng le chū qù 。
空中出现了一缕缕的寒气，以林轩现在的修为，轻易就凝结出了上千根冰针，然后迎着魔火，将这法术用了出去。
Faint cold air appeared in the sky, and with his current cultivation level, he easily condensed over a thousand ice needles, which he shot towards the demon fire.
Ma Jin and Zhou Liang were drenched in cold sweat, hastily commanding their spirit artifacts to bombard the strange beast. However, the black light was incredibly sturdy; after half a day of fighting, it only managed to make the creature sway slightly.
The spider had already integrated most of its body into Zhou Liang's corpse, with its head reattached and glowing with an eerie red light from its eyes. Its lips curled upwards as it sneered at the two men.
"Ah!" Ma Jin screamed, suddenly turning around and running away.
"Junior brother, you..."
Huang Zhong was both shocked and angry. Despite the strange nature of this creature, their combined cultivation levels might give them a chance against it. Just as he was about to stop him, his neck suddenly felt cold, and his body began to fall backward.
"Could I..." He barely had time to think before losing consciousness.

Sizzle...
The light dome shook but wasn't torn apart. Instead, it generated several lightning bolts as thick as bowls, trapping and aiming to destroy the spider.
The monster's expression turned grim: "Nine Palaces Array?"
After a moment of thought, his eyes flashed with ferocity. He opened his mouth and spat out a small black bead. His expression became serious as he grabbed the bead in his hand. Then, his hand began to emit dazzling light.
