少在这里胡言乱语，天下绝阵究竟是什么东西？”万蛟王不善的声音传入耳朵”这老怪物如今是强压着心中的怒火。
Less idle chatter here. What exactly is the World's Ultimate Array?" The voice of the Ten Thousand Serpent King was not pleasant as it entered his ears. This old monster was now forcibly suppressing his anger.
“ bù cuò ， nǐ ruò shì yāo yán huò zhòng ， xiǎng yào huǎng yán qī mán wǒ děng ， hòu guǒ rú hé ” zì jǐ yīng gāi xīn zhōng yǒu shù 。” tiě zhòu wáng yě huǎn huǎn de kāi kǒu le ， hún shēn shàng xià ， yīn qì pēn bó ：“ běn wáng huì ràng nǐ qiú shēng bù dé ， qiú sǐ bù néng de ……”
“不错，你若是妖言惑众，想要谎言欺瞒我等，后果如何”自己应该心中有数。”铁纣王也缓缓的开口了，浑身上下，阴气喷薄：“本王会让你求生不得，求死不能的……”
"Indeed, if you are spreading false words to mislead us and attempting to deceive us with lies, what will be your consequence?" He should know this already.
lín xuān bù dòng shēng sè ” dàn tā què zhù yì dào zhàn zài yī páng de gǔ mó ， zài tīng jiàn tiān xià jué zhèn jǐ gè zì de shí hòu ， yǎn zhōng sà rán shǎn guò yī sī guǐ yì zhī sè ， suī rán jǐn shì yī shùn ér yǐ ， dàn lín xuān què yǐ àn zì liú xīn shàng qù 。
林轩不动声色”但他却注意到站在一旁的古魔，在听见天下绝阵几个字的时候，眼中飒然闪过一丝诡异之色，虽然仅是一瞬而已，但林轩却已暗自留心上去。
The Iron Tyrant King also slowly spoke up, the air around him exuding a heavy aura of阴气: "I shall make it so that you cannot live or die easily..."
duì fāng kě shì shàng jiè mó zǔ ， suī rán fēn hún de shí lì jǐn wèi lí hé ， dàn jiàn shí yǔ suǒ dǒng de mì shù ， què yuǎn fēi zì jǐ zhè xiē rén kě bǐ de 。
对方可是上界魔祖，虽然分魂的实力仅为离合，但见识与所懂的秘术，却远非自己这些人可比的。
Lin Xuan remained calm on the surface but noticed that the ancient demon standing beside him had flashed an odd look when he heard the words 'World's Ultimate Array'. Although it was only for a moment, Lin Xuan had already taken note of it.
nán dào shuō ……
难道说……
After all, the other party was a High Demon Ancestor. Even though his soul fragment’s strength was at the Separation stage, his experience and knowledge of secret techniques far surpassed those of these people.
nà sī tú fāng tǎn tè bù ān de shēng yīn yě wěi wěi chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ gè wèi qián bèi xī nù ， qiè shēn nǎ gǎn xì shuǎ ěr děng ne ， zhè tiān xià jué zhèn ， jí shǐ zài shàng gǔ duàn jìn dà zhèn zhī zhōng ， yě kě yǐ pái jìn qián wǔ ， wǎn bèi suī néng rèn chū ， dàn què shí méi yǒu néng lì pò hā ……”
那司徒芳忐忑不安的声音也娓娓传入耳朵：“各位前辈息怒，妾身哪敢戏耍尔等呢，这天下绝阵，即使在上古断禁大阵之中，也可以排进前五，晚辈虽能认出，但确实没有能力破哈……”
Could it be...
huà yīn wèi luò ， zhòng lǎo guài xīn dōu liáng le ， tā men jiù suàn méi yǒu xué guò zhèn fǎ jìn zhì ， dàn duì yú yī xiē zuì pǔ tōng de shù yǔ ， yòu qǐ huì méi yǒu tīng shuō 。
话音未落，众老怪心都凉了，他们就算没有学过阵法禁制，但对于一些最普通的术语，又岂会没有听说。
The hesitant voice of Situ Fang also entered his ears: "Senior predecessors, please calm down. I dare not play tricks on you. The World's Ultimate Array is ranked among the top five even within the most formidable ancient prohibitive array. Although I can recognize it, I indeed lack the ability to break through..."
duàn jìn dà zhèn ， shì duì shàng gǔ liú chuán xià lái de ， zuì lì hài zhèn fǎ de chēng hū 。
断禁大阵，是对上古流传下来的，最厉害阵法的称呼。
Before she could finish speaking, the faces of the old monsters turned cold. Even if they hadn't studied array techniques, they had surely heard some basic terms.
pái míng qián wǔ ！
排名前五！
The term 'prohibitive array' referred to the most powerful ancient arrays that had been passed down.
nà jué bú shì tā men kě yǐ pò chú 。
那绝不是他们可以破除。
Ranked among the top five!
bié shuō qū qū lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， jiù suàn shì dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù ， shèn zhì yǎn qián zhè wèi mó zǔ de zhēn shēn jiàng lín cǐ chù ， néng fǒu jiāng yǎn qián jìn zhì pò chú yī jiù shì wèi zhī zhī shù 。
别说区区离合期修仙者，就算是洞玄期老怪物，甚至眼前这位魔祖的真身降临此处，能否将眼前禁制破除依旧是未知之数。
That was not something they could break through.
yī shí jiān ， chǎng miàn ān jìng le xià lái ， zhòng lǎo guài wù de liǎn sè yí gè bǐ yí gè nán kàn 。
一时间，场面安静了下来，众老怪物的脸色一个比一个难看。
Not even a Separation stage cultivator, let alone an Elder of the Profound Stage or this High Demon Ancestor's true form, could be certain whether he would be able to break through such prohibitive restrictions.
dàn jiù zhè yàng lí zé yòu xīn yǒu bù gān 。
但就这样离责又心有不甘。
The scene fell silent as one by one, the faces of these old monsters turned increasingly ugly. But they were unwilling to leave just yet.
néng gòu lái dào cǐ chù ， tā men kě shì jīng lì le bù zhī dào duō shǎo jiān nán xiǎn zǔ 。
能够来到此处，他们可是经历了不知道多少艰难险阻。
They had endured countless hardships and dangers to reach here. Could there really be no other way?
nán dào zhēn de méi yǒu bié de bàn fǎ le 。
难道真的没有别的办法了。
Or perhaps this woman had misidentified the array in front of them. Some people hoped so.
huò zhě shì cǐ nǚ jiàng yǎn qián de zhèn fǎ rèn cuò ， shèn zhì yǒu rén yì xiāng qíng yuàn de rú cǐ xiǎng zhe 。
或者是此女将眼前的阵法认错，甚至有人一厢情愿的如此想着。
"Miss Situ, what exactly is the World's Ultimate Array? You haven't explained it clearly enough..." After a long while, Wang Tinglou’s voice entered his ears. He had already asked Yi Long for advice earlier and found that even he was unfamiliar with array techniques.
“ sī tú gū niáng ， tiān xià jué zhèn jiū jìng shì shén me ， nǐ hái méi yǒu shuō qīng chǔ ……” liáng jiǔ ” wàng tíng lóu de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， gāng cái tā yǐ zài xīn zhōng qǐng jiào guò yì lóng ， kě duì fāng duì zhèn fǎ tóng yàng yī qiào bù tōng 。
“司徒姑娘，天下绝阵究竟是什么，你还没有说清楚……”良久”望亭楼的声音传入耳朵，刚才他已在心中请教过翼龙，可对方对阵法同样一窍不通。
"The principle behind the World's Ultimate Array isn’t particularly special," Situ Fang said, her eyes flickering with a hint of fascination. "But its actual operation is extremely complex..." She hadn't expected to see something like this in Penglai Mountain: "Senior predecessors, although you haven’t studied array techniques, you must know that activating prohibitive restrictions requires essence energy as power.
“ tiān xià jué zhèn ， qí shí cóng yuán lǐ ， yě méi yǒu shén me xī qí ， zhǐ bù guò shí jì cāo zuò ， què fù zá yǐ jí ……” sī tú fāng shuō dào zhè lǐ ， yǎn zhōng yǐn yǐn shǎn guò yī sī chī mí ， méi xiǎng dào zài zhè péng lái shān zhōng ， jū rán kě yǐ jiàn dào chuán shuō zhōng de dōng xī ：“ zhū wèi qián bèi suī rán méi yǒu xué guò zhèn fǎ zhī shù ， dàn xiǎng bì yě xiǎo de ， xiǎng yào jiāng jìn zhì qǐ dòng ， shì xū yào líng lì zuò wèi néng liàng de 。
“天下绝阵，其实从原理，也没有什么稀奇，只不过实际操作，却复杂以极……”司徒芳说到这里，眼中隐隐闪过一丝痴迷，没想到在这蓬莱山中，居然可以见到传说中的东西：“诸位前辈虽然没有学过阵法之术，但想必也晓得，想要将禁制启动，是需要灵力做为能量的。
"Of course, we understand this..." Wang Tinglou nodded seriously.
“ zhè wǒ men dāng rán qīng chǔ ……” wàng tíng lóu diǎn le diǎn tóu ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì rèn zhēn zhī sè 。
“这我们当然清楚……”望亭楼点了点头，脸上满是认真之色。
"The way of providing essence energy for the prohibitive restrictions generally has two methods. The first is cultivators who usually are array masters making the array tools. They inject their own magical power into the array disks and flags. Each tool contains a storage device to hold that power, just like how talismans work. However, while this method is convenient, its power is often limited..."
“ wèi jìn zhì tí gōng líng lì de fāng shì ， yì bān lái shuō ， yǒu liǎng zhǒng ， dì yī zhǒng shì xiū xiān zhě ， tōng cháng shì zhì zuò bù zhèn qì jù de zhèn fǎ shī ， jiāng běn shēn de fǎ lì zhù rù zhèn pán zhèn qí ， zhè xiē bù zhèn qì jù ， měi yī yàng lǐ miàn qián huì yǒu chǔ cún fǎ lì de dōng xī ， zhèn fú yě shì yī yàng de dào lǐ ， yì bān lái shuō ， cǎi yòng zhè zhǒng néng liàng fāng shì de zhèn fǎ jìn zhì ， suī rán fāng biàn ， dàn wēi lì dōu pǒ wèi yǒu xiàn ……”
“为禁制提供灵力的方式，一般来说，有两种，第一种是修仙者，通常是制作布阵器具的阵法师，将本身的法力注入阵盘阵旗，这些布阵器具，每一样里面前会有储存法力的东西，阵符也是一样的道理，一般来说，采用这种能量方式的阵法禁制，虽然方便，但威力都颇为有限……”
"The second method, everyone has seen it before. The most representative example would be the protective arrays of sects or families. They are extremely powerful and require filling specific slots with crystal stones to provide energy..." "Girl, why do you keep rambling on about these things? I just want to break through this prohibitive restriction, not come here to learn array techniques from you," came the coarse voice of the Ten Thousand Serpent King. This old monster was the most impatient among them.
“ zhì yú dì èr zhǒng ， dà jiā yě dōu jiàn guò ， zuì jù dài biǎo xìng de ， biàn shì mén pài jiā zú de hù pài dà zhèn le ， wēi lì jí qiáng ， xū yào jiāng jīng shí tián chōng zài gù dìng de sì cáo lǐ tí gōng néng liàng ……”，“ yā tou ， nǐ luó lǐ luó suo de jiǎng zhè xiē gàn shén me ， běn zūn shì xiǎng yào jiāng jìn zhì pò chú ， yòu bú shì lái xiàng nǐ bài shī xué xí zhèn fǎ zhī shí ……” wàn jiāo wáng cū háo de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhè lǎo guài wù shì suǒ yǒu rén zhōng nài fán xīn zuì chà de yí gè 。
“至于第二种，大家也都见过，最具代表性的，便是门派家族的护派大阵了，威力极强，需要将晶石填充在固定的四槽里提供能量……”，“丫头，你罗里罗嗦的讲这些干什么，本尊是想要将禁制破除，又不是来像你拜师学习阵法知识……”万蛟王粗豪的声音传入耳朵，这老怪物是所有人中耐烦心最差的一个。
Situ Fang's face turned pale.
sī tú fāng de liǎn sè yī xià zi shà bái qǐ lái le 。
司徒芳的脸色一下子煞白起来了。
"What use is your urgency?" How do you know that Miss Situ’s words are all nonsense? " Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, clearly dissatisfied.
“ dào yǒu jí yǒu shén me yòng chǔ ” nǐ zěn me zhī dào sī tú gū niáng suǒ shuō de jìn shì fèi huà ne ？”， lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo ， pǒ wèi bù mǎn de dào 。
“道友急有什么用处”你怎么知道司徒姑娘所说的尽是废话呢？”，林轩眉头一挑，颇为不满的道。
He couldn’t understand how this old demon managed to reach the late Separation stage. Wasn't it common knowledge that arrogance led to one's downfall?
zhēn bù míng bái zhè lǎo yāo wù ， shì zěn me xiū dào lí hé hòu qī de 。
真不明白这老妖物，是怎么修到离合后期的。
"You..."
fēi yáng bá hù ， nán dào tā jiù bù míng bái tài gāng yì zhé de dào lǐ me ？
飞扬跋扈，难道他就不明白太钢易折的道理么？
The Ten Thousand Serpent King was enraged but Wang Tinglou's look made him stop.
“ nǐ ………”
“你………”
Their battle from long ago left a deep impression on the old serpent dragon. While he didn’t want to show weakness, his heart was filled with fear.
wàn jiāo wáng bó rán dà nù ， dàn wàng tíng lóu yí gè yǎn shén yòu ràng zhè lǎo jiā huǒ yǎn qí xī gǔ 。
万蛟王勃然大怒，但望亭楼一个眼神又让这老家伙偃旗息鼓。
"Miss Situ, continue speaking..."
xī rì yī zhàn ， kě shì ràng lǎo jiāo lóng yìn xiàng shēn kè ， biǎo miàn shàng bù yuàn shì ruò ， dàn nèi xīn shēn chù ， què shì pà dào gǔ zi lǐ le 。
昔日一战，可是让老蛟龙印象深刻，表面上不愿示弱，但内心深处，却是怕到骨子里了。
"Yes..."
“ sī tú gū niáng ， nǐ jì xù shuō ……”
“司徒姑娘，你继续说……”
This woman bowed gracefully and thanked him before turning her head and opening her lips to speak to the Ten Thousand Serpent King: "Senior, please calm down. I am not being tedious. These things are all related to the World's Ultimate Array. My cultivation is shallow, but perhaps Senior predecessors can find a way to break through from what you hear..."
“ shì ……”
“是……”
"Go on..." The Ten Thousand Serpent King held back his anger.
cǐ nǚ yíng yíng yī fú ” liǎn shàng lù chū gǎn jī zhī sè ， suí hòu yòu zhuǎn guò zhēn shǒu ， yīng chún wēi qǐ de duì zhe wàn jiāo wáng kāi kǒu ：“ qián bèi qǐng xī nù ， wǎn bèi bú shì luó suo ， zhè xiē dōng xī dōu shì yǔ tiān xià jué zhèn yǒu guān de ， wǎn bèi xiū wèi qiǎn bó ， dàn gè wèi qián bèi tīng le ， yě xǔ néng cóng zhōng zhǎo dào pò jiě zhī cè ……”
此女盈盈一福”脸上露出感激之色，随后又转过臻首，樱唇微启的对着万蛟王开口：“前辈请息怒，晚辈不是罗嗦，这些东西都是与天下绝阵有关的，晚辈修为浅薄，但各位前辈听了，也许能从中找到破解之策……”
"You just mentioned that there are two ways of providing essence energy for prohibitive restrictions. However, the World's Ultimate Array differs. It doesn’t require injecting magical power into array flags or filling slots with crystal stones. Instead, it integrates the array technique with nature..."
“ nǐ shuō ……” wàn jiāo wáng rěn xià le nù huǒ 。
“你说……”万蛟王忍下了怒火。
"Integrating with nature... what does that mean..." Wang Tinglou’s face was filled with astonishment. Even he found this confusing.
“ qiè shēn gāng cái shuō guò ， wèi jìn zhì tí gōng líng lì de fāng shì yǒu liǎng zhǒng ， rán ér tiān xià jué zhèn bù tóng ， jì bù xū yào wàng zhèn qí zhōng zhù rù fǎ lì ， yě bù yòng jīng shí shén me ， ér shì jiāng zhèn fǎ róng yú zì rán zhī zhōng ………”
“妾身刚才说过，为禁制提供灵力的方式有两种，然而天下绝阵不同，既不需要望阵旗中注入法力，也不用晶石什么，而是将阵法融于自然之中………”
"It means integrating with nature in a way similar to how Senior predecessors manipulate primordial energy from heaven and earth. However, different scales of World's Ultimate Arrays can draw varying amounts of primordial energy. For example, the one before us could harness all the primordial energy within a hundred-mile radius..." Situ Fang concluded her explanation. The people present understood this as well, their faces turning grim.
“ róng yú zì rán ， nà shì shén me ……” tíng lóu de liǎn shàng mǎn shì chà yì zhī sè ， zhè fān huà ， lián tā yě tīng dé mí mí hū hū 。
“融于自然，那是什么……”亭楼的脸上满是诧异之色，这番话，连他也听得迷迷糊糊。
Lin Xuan sighed inwardly. Indeed, it was just as described in "The Book of Heavenly Primordial Arrays."
“ jiù shì yǔ zì rán róng wéi yī tǐ ， yǒu diǎn lèi sì yú qián bèi men diào dòng tiān dì yuán qì ， dāng rán ， bù tóng guī mó de tiān xià jué zhèn ， néng gòu diào dòng de tiān dì yuán qì fàn wéi dà bù xiāng tóng ， bǐ rú shuō yǎn qián zhè ge ， dà yuē néng jiāng fāng yuán bǎi lǐ de tiān dì yuán qì ， quán bù wèi jǐ suǒ yòng ……”， sī tú fāng yán jǐn yú cǐ ， zài chǎng de rén yě dōu xīn lǐ yǒu shù ， liǎn sè nán kàn qǐ lái le 。
“就是与自然融为一体，有点类似于前辈们调动天地元气，当然，不同规模的天下绝阵，能够调动的天地元气范围大不相同，比如说眼前这个，大约能将方圆百里的天地元气，全部为己所用……”，司徒芳言尽于此，在场的人也都心里有数，脸色难看起来了。
The World's Ultimate Array referred to arrays that use primordial energy from heaven and earth as their power source. There were countless types, but the one before them was purely defensive. Otherwise, even with such vast primordial energy, they would find it extremely difficult to handle.
lín xuān gèng shì àn àn tàn xī ， guǒ rán yǔ 《 tiān yuán zhèn shū 》 zhōng de jiè shào shì xiāng tóng dì 。
林轩更是暗暗叹息，果然与《天元阵书》中的介绍是相同地。
Not all World's Ultimate Arrays were impossible to deal with; it depended on the scale of the array.
tiān xià jué zhèn ， qí shí shì duì yǐ tiān dì yuán qì wèi néng yuán de zhèn fǎ de zǒng chēng 。
天下绝阵，其实是对以天地元气为能源的阵法的总称。
If it merely integrated with a few acres’ environment, its power might not even surpass that of ordinary prohibitive restrictions. However, this one encompassed a hundred miles and Penglai Mountain was rich in primordial energy. Unless their combined attack could exceed the total primordial energy within a hundred miles, they would never be able to break through.
zhǒng lèi jí wéi fán duō ， ér yǎn qián zhè ge chún cuì shì fáng yù xìng zhì dì ， fǒu zé yǐ tiān dì yuán qì huà wèi gōng jī ， jí biàn shì tā men yìng fù qǐ lái yě huì chī lì wú bǐ 。
种类极为繁多，而眼前这个纯粹是防御性质的，否则以天地元气化为攻击，即便是他们应付起来也会吃力无比。
Because the prohibitive restriction’s essence energy consumption could always be replenished from its surroundings, it was eternal and would never run out.
yě bìng bú shì tiān xià jué zhèn jiù dōu nán yǐ duì fù ， guān jiàn shì kàn xī jù yǒu zěn yàng de guī mó 。
也并不是天下绝阵就都难以对付，关键是看牺具有怎样的规模。
After all, although only integrated with a one-hundred-mile environment on the surface, the primordial energy of Penglai Mountain circulated endlessly.
rú guǒ jǐn jǐn shì yǔ yī liǎng mǔ de huán jìng róng wéi yī tǐ ， wēi lì shèn zhì hái bù jí pǔ tōng de jìn zhì ， kě yǎn qián zhè ge ， fàn wéi què náng kuò le bǎi lǐ ， ér qiě péng lái shān líng mài chù chù ， tiān dì yuán qì jí wéi fēng fù ， chú fēi tā men gōng jī dié jiā de wēi lì ， néng gòu shèng guò zhè fāng yuán bǎi lǐ tiān dì yuán qì de zǒng hé ， fǒu zé gēn běn jiù bù kě néng gōng pò 。
如果仅仅是与一两亩的环境融为一体，威力甚至还不及普通的禁制，可眼前这个，范围却囊括了百里，而且蓬莱山灵脉处处，天地元气极为丰富，除非他们攻击叠加的威力，能够胜过这方圆百里天地元气的总和，否则根本就不可能攻破。
Was there really no way to break through this prohibition? The faces of these old monsters showed their frustration.
yīn wèi jìn zhì líng lì xiāo hào yǐ hòu ， suí shí dōu kě yǐ cóng zhōu wéi de huán jìng zhōng dé dào bǔ chōng ， shēng shēng bù xī ， yǒng yuǎn bú huì yǒu kū xiē zhī è 。
因为禁制灵力消耗以后，随时都可以从周围的环境中得到补充，生生不息，永远不会有枯蝎之厄。
However, at that moment, the ancient demon unexpectedly spoke up: "It may not be an impossible situation. If it merely integrates with a one-hundred-mile environment, I have an idea..."
bì jìng biǎo miàn shàng xī zhǐ shì yǔ fāng yuán bǎi lǐ de huán jìng róng wéi yī tǐ ， dàn zhěng gè péng lái shān de tiān dì yuán qì ， què shì bù tíng xún huán liú dòng dì 。
毕竟表面上牺只是与方圆百里的环境融为一体，但整个蓬莱山的天地元气，却是不停循环流动地。
"What! Can you break through this array..."
nán dào zhēn méi yǒu bàn fǎ jiāng jìn zhì pò chú ， zhòng lǎo guài de liǎn shàng mǎn shì ào nǎo zhī sè 。
难道真没有办法将禁制破除，众老怪的脸上满是懊恼之色。
The other people’s faces were filled with shock and joy but no one doubted that the true form of the High Demon Ancestor was at an inconceivable realm of cultivation.
Less idle chatter here. What exactly is the World's Ultimate Array?" The voice of the Ten Thousand Serpent King was not pleasant as it entered his ears. This old monster was now forcibly suppressing his anger.
"Indeed, if you are spreading false words to mislead us and attempting to deceive us with lies, what will be your consequence?" He should know this already.
