“ ń ， dà xiǎo jiě suǒ lǜ shèn shì ， zhè jiù yào kàn cǐ rén pǐn xíng rú hé ， dàn tuì yī fāng bù shuō ， jiù suàn tā bú shì shén me hǎo dōng xī ， nǎi jiàn lì wàng yì zhī tú ， yě bù dǎ jǐn ， wǒ men kě yǐ yǔ qí xū yǔ wēi yí ， lì yòng qí duì fù wàn shòu zūn zhě ， tā suī shì lí hé ， dàn bì jìng zhǐ shì gū jiā guǎ rén yí gè ， yòu rén shēng dì bù shú ， bǐ qǐ zhěng gè wàn shòu dǎo ， míng xiǎn hǎo duì fù dé duō ， nán dào hái pà tā fǎn kè wéi zhǔ ， jiāng wǒ men hóng yè dǎo de jī yè duó le ？”
“嗯，大小姐所虑甚是，这就要看此人品行如何，但退一方步说，就算他不是什么好东西，乃见利忘义之徒，也不打紧，我们可以与其虚与委蛇，利用其对付万兽尊者，他虽是离合，但毕竟只是孤家寡人一个，又人生地不熟，比起整个万兽岛，明显好对付得多，难道还怕他反客为主，将我们红叶岛的基业夺了？”
"Indeed, Miss, your concerns are valid. It all depends on the person's character. But to put it another way, even if he is not a good guy and merely someone who forgets righteousness for profit, we can still deal with him in a roundabout manner. We could use his services to counter the Beast Sovereign. Although he is at the Separation stage, he is alone, unfamiliar with our surroundings, and much easier to handle compared to the entire Beast Island. How could he possibly take over Red Leaf Island?"
ér zhè yī qiè ， lín xuān bìng bù qīng chǔ ， tā zì wèn yǐ shí fēn xiǎo xīn zài yì ， yǐn cáng qì xī ， nǎ zhī dào shēn fèn hái shì bèi rén cāi le gè ** bù lí shí 。
而这一切，林轩并不清楚，他自问已十分小心在意，隐藏气息，哪知道身份还是被人猜了个**不离十。
Lin Xuan was unaware of these developments. He had taken great care to conceal his identity, but apparently, someone still managed to guess it correctly.
shàng gǔ céng yǒu chuán shuō 。
上古曾有传说。
In ancient times, there were legends that a tiny butterfly flapping its wings could trigger a devastating storm thousands of miles away.
yī zhī xiǎo xiǎo de hú dié shān dòng chì bǎng ， kě yǐ zài wàn lǐ zhī yáo yǐn fā yī cháng kě pà de fēng bào 。
一只小小的蝴蝶煽动翅膀，可以在万里之遥引发一场可怕的风暴。
A casual act of assistance in the marketplace today might have involved flattening an intermediate-stage cultivator. Lin Xuan had no idea that this simple gesture would plunge him into a perilous situation.
yī cì yì wài de chū shǒu xiàng zhù ， zhǐ bù guò biǎn le yī míng yuán yīng zhōng qī de xiū xiān zhě ， lín xuān què bù xiǎo de ， tā jiāng yīn cǐ juǎn rù yī cháng kě pà de xuán wō 。
一次意外的出手相助，只不过扁了一名元婴中期的修仙者，林轩却不晓得，他将因此卷入一场可怕的漩涡。
The conflict between Red Leaf Island and Beast Island was just beginning.
ér hóng yè yǔ wàn shòu liǎng dǎo de fēn zhēng ， bù guò shì gāng gāng kāi shǐ bà le 。
而红叶与万兽两岛的纷争，不过是刚刚开始罢了。
Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling at the moment. He had spent almost the entire day in the market, but he still found it worthwhile. The Spirit Realm truly lived up to its reputation; resources here far surpassed those of the mortal world.
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， lín xuān yǐ huí dào le zì jǐ de dòng fǔ 。
此时此刻，林轩已回到了自己的洞府。
Lin Xuan did not immediately check his belongings or rush into cultivation. First, he went to his bedroom and slept soundly for a night. In the morning, after a bath, he came to the training hall with no urgency.
jīn tiān zài fāng shì zhōng huā le jī hū yī tiān de gōng fu ， dàn shōu huò hái shì shí fēn fēng fù 。
今天在坊市中huā了几乎一天的功夫，但收获还是十分丰富。
He had much to deal with. During his time on Penglai Mountain, he had acquired numerous treasures. While the relics of immortal sages were not discussed, other items were valuable indeed, and needed sorting.
líng jiè guǒ rán shèng míng wú xū ， gè zhǒng zī yuán yuǎn fēi xià jiè kě bǐ 。
灵界果然盛名无虚，各种资源远非下界可比。
Thoughts raced through Lin Xuan's mind as he tapped his storage bag. A flash of light revealed three objects before him.
lín xuān bìng méi yǒu máng zhe jiǎn shì zì jǐ de dōng xī ， xiū liàn yě bù yòng jí yú yī shí 。
林轩并没有忙着检视自己的东西，修炼也不用急于一时。
A small internalpill, about the size of a head, with an intense aura of qi.
lín xuān xiān huí dào le wò shì ， hǎo hǎo shuì le yī wǎn ， zǎo shàng qǐ lái ， yòu xǐ le yí gè zǎo ， rán ér cái bù huāng bù máng de lái dào liàn gōng fáng 。
林轩先回到了卧室，好好睡了一晚，早上起来，又洗了一个澡，然而才不慌不忙的来到练功房。
Several dozen scales, larger than a palm, resembling those of a dragon, but even harder.
shuō qǐ lái ， tā yào chǔ lǐ de dōng xī hěn duō ， guāng zài péng lái shān de shí hòu ， jiù dé dào le zhòng duō bǎo wù ， xiān rén yí zhēn zàn qiě bù shuō ， qí tā de dōng xī ， yě shì jià zhí bù fēi zhī wù ， xū yào hǎo hǎo zhěng lǐ yī fān de 。
说起来，他要处理的东西很多，光在蓬莱山的时候，就得到了众多宝物，仙人遗珍暂且不说，其他的东西，也是价值不菲之物，需要好好整理一番的。
Additionally, there was a golden bone, only a foot long, radiating beautiful light.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ” lín xuān shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài chǔ wù dài shàng yī pāi ， guāng xiá yī shǎn ， sān jiàn dōng xī jiù chū xiàn zài le miàn qián 。
脑海中念头转过”林轩伸出手来，在储物袋上一拍，光霞一闪，三件东西就出现在了面前。
These treasures were obtained when Lin Xuan and Mo'er jointly exterminated that ancient crocodile beast on Penglai Mountain. The internalpill and scales were valuable, but they might be found in the Spirit Realm's auctions as well.
yī tóu lú dà xiǎo de nèi dān ， zuò mǐ huáng sè ， lǐ miàn suǒ yùn hán de líng qì ， zhe shí shēn hòu yǐ jí 。
一头颅大小的内丹，做米黄色，里面所蕴含的灵气，着实深厚以极。
But this spirit bone... Lin Xuan believed it was a rare item even in the Spirit Realm. Like the relics of Buddhist monks, only a few high-stage creatures could produce such bones, with an extremely low probability.
shù bǎi kuài lín piàn ， bǐ bā zhǎng hái yào gèng dà yī diǎn ， yǔ jiāo lóng lín piàn pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì ， jiān yìng chéng dù hái yào gèng shèng yī xiē 。
数百块鳞片，比巴掌还要更大一点，与蛟龙鳞片颇有几分相似，坚硬程度还要更胜一些。
Spirit bones were hard to come by and invaluable for crafting. Even if they did not match divine treasures, the results would be close. They could also be stored within one's body for refinement.
chú cǐ yǐ wài ， hái yǒu yī gēn gǔ tou ， zhǎng jǐn yǒu chǐ xǔ ， rán ér què shì jīn huáng sè ， sàn fà zhe měi lì de guāng zé 。
除此以外，还有一根骨头，长仅有尺许，然而却是金黄色，散发着美丽的光泽。
The Wicked Sword of Magic was merely a broken spirit treasure yet had incredible power. This spirit bone would likely produce even more potent items.
zhè sān yàng bǎo wù shì lín xuān zài péng lái shān de shí hòu ， yǔ yuè ér lián shǒu ， miè shā le nà è yú gǔ shòu suǒ de 。
这三样宝物是林轩在蓬莱山的时候，与月儿联手，灭杀了那鳄鱼古兽所得。
Nevertheless, Lin Xuan had not decided how to use it but knew it was a significant gain.
qián liǎng yàng dào yě bà le ， nèi dān yǔ lín piàn suī rán shì jià zhí bù fēi zhī wù ， yě dà yǒu yòng tú ， dàn zài líng jiè de pāi mài huì zhōng ， xiāng xìn yě shì yǒu jī lǜ jiàn dào de 。
前两样倒也罢了，内丹与鳞片虽然是价值不菲之物，也大有用途，但在灵界的拍卖会中，相信也是有几率见到的。
With his thoughts settled, he set the three treasures aside. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, another internalpill appeared in his palm.
bìng bù suàn yǒu jià wú shì ， zhǐ bù guò jià zhí jí gāo ér yǐ ， xiāng xìn kě yǐ huàn shàng bù shǎo jí pǐn jīng shí 。
并不算有价无市，只不过价值极高而已，相信可以换上不少极品晶石。
This one was much smaller, only as large as a dragon's eye, emitting a dark hue.
dàn zhè kuài líng gǔ ……， lín xuān xiāng xìn jí shǐ zài zhè líng bào ， yě jué duì shì yǒu qián nán mǎi zhī wù 。
但这块灵骨……，林轩相信即使在这灵暴，也绝对是有钱难买之物。
Lin Xuan looked at this item, showing a hint of a bitter smile.
jiù rú tóng fó mén gāo sēng de shě lì ， huà xíng qī yǐ shàng de yāo zú lǐ lùn shàng kě yǐ chǎn shēng líng gǔ ， shí jì shàng de jī lǜ ， què shì wàn zhōng wú yī 。
就如同佛门高僧的舍利，化形期以上的妖族理论上可以产生灵骨，实际上的几率，却是万中无一。
He had killed that Wicked Soul's fragment soul. The grudge he carried now was deep.
líng gǔ běn lái jiù shì kě yù ér bù kě qiú de dōng xī ” yòng lái zhì qì ， fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， liàn chū lái de dōng xī ， jiù suàn bù jí tōng tiān líng bǎo ， yě bú huì xiāng chà tài yuǎn ， ér qiě hái kě yǐ fàng rù tǐ è nèi péi liàn 。
灵骨本来就是可遇而不可求的东西”用来制器，非同小可，炼出来的东西，就算不及通天灵宝，也不会相差太远，而且还可以放入体垩内培炼。
As one of the Four Evils, Lin Xuan did not know what realm Wicked Soul had reached. Clearly, killing him now was like crushing an insignificant ant.
mó yuán jiàn bù guò shì cán pò de líng bǎo ér yǐ ， jiù yǒu rú cǐ bù kě sī yì de wēi lì ， zhè líng gǔ liàn chū lái de bǎo bèi ， hái yào gèng shèng yī xiē 。
魔缘剑不过是残破的灵宝而已，就有如此不可思议的威力，这灵骨炼出来的宝贝，还要更胜一些。
Just ascending to the Spirit Realm and encountering such a formidable enemy... though he tried not to worry, it was hard not to feel some concern. However, with so many small interfaces in the Spirit Realm, the chances of running into Wicked Soul were slim unless extremely unlucky.
dāng rán ， lín xuān xiàn zài hái méi yǒu xiǎng hǎo yòng xī zuò shén me ， dàn jué duì shì dà shōu huò wú yí 。
当然，林轩现在还没有想好用牺做什么，但绝对是大收获无疑。
As one of the Four Evils, Wicked Soul's lineage was far superior to ordinary spirit races. This internalpill, though a fragment soul, still contained a trace of its essence power.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān jiù xiān jiāng sān bǎo zhì yú yī biān le 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩就先将三宝置于一边了。
Though minimal, it was like a seed; with proper application, the benefits would be immense. After much deliberation, Lin Xuan managed to suppress the urge to swallow this immediately.
suí hòu xiù páo yī fú ， yòu yī kē nèi dān chū xiàn zài le zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng 。
随后袖袍一拂，又一颗内丹出现在了掌心之中。
Words could be careless, but one must not eat things recklessly. The essence force from Wicked Soul had infinite uses if properly applied, but misused... it might result in his death.
zhè yī cì tǐ jī què yào xiǎo xǔ duō ， jǐn yǒu lóng yǎn dà ， sàn fà zhe yǒu hēi de guāng zé 。
这一次体积却要小许多，仅有龙眼大，散发着黝黑的光泽。
Though he was a cultivator defying nature, such risks were too great without certainty.
lín xuān kàn zhe cǐ wù ， liǎn shàng què lù chū jǐ fēn kǔ xiào zhī sè 。
林轩看着此物，脸上却露出几分苦笑之色。
This internalpill would be safely stored for now until better preparation could be made to handle it.
cǐ nǎi miè shā le nà dǎo jī fēn hún suǒ de 。
此乃灭杀了那祷机分魂所得。
With these thoughts, Lin Xuan placed the item back into an jade box and affixed aprohibition talisman.
zhè ge liáng zi jié dé hái zhēn shì dà le 。
这个梁子结得还真是大了。
The treasures from Penglai Mountain were not limited to those. Tu Fei's storage bracelet had many uses as well. A mere intermediate-stage cultivator like him might not find other items valuable, but for a gatekeeper, even such a simple item would be highly desirable. However, he was still in the early stages of his journey and prioritized enhancing his cultivation.
zuò wèi è míng zhāo zhāng de sì xiōng zhī yī ， lín xuān yě bù zhī dào dǎo jī de jìng jiè jiū jìng dào le zěn yàng yī zhǒng bù kě sī yì zhī dì 。
做为恶名昭彰的四凶之一，林轩也不知道祷机的境界究竟到了怎样一种不可思议之地。
After ascending to the Separation stage, cultivation became extremely challenging. Lin Xuan had yet to find suitable pills, but one item remained from Penglai Mountain: a Spirit-Communicating Buddha Treasure!
dàn xiǎn rán miè shā rú jīn de zì jǐ ， rú cǎi sǐ yī zhī miǎo xiǎo de lóu yǐ 。
但显然灭杀如今的自己，如踩死一只渺小的蝼蚁。
With a wave of his sleeve, the red staff appeared in the cave dwelling. Its material was unknown, but its power was evident.
cái fēi shēng líng jiè ， jiù rě xià zhè me yí gè dà dí ， ruò shuō wán quán bù zài yì ， nà xiǎn rán shì piàn rén dì 。
才飞升灵界，就惹下这么一个大敌，若说完全不在意，那显然是骗人地。
Lin Xuan stowed it away and took out the last precious item—a tiny golden bean. The moment he removed theprohibition talisman from the bottle, a powerful Buddhist force surged forth.
bù guò dān xīn yě méi yǒu yòng tú ， hé kuàng líng jiè zhī dì mào guǎng kuò ， gèng yuǎn fēi rén jiè kě bǐ de ， guāng shì zhè yàng de xiǎo jiè miàn ： jiù yǒu shàng bǎi zhī duō ， suǒ yǐ zhǐ yào bú shì yùn qì méi dào jí chù ， yì bān lái shuō ， hái shì bú huì yǔ dǎo jī xiá lù xiāng féng 。
不过担心也没有用途，何况灵界之地貌广阔，更远非人界可比的，光是这样的小界面：就有上百之多，所以只要不是运气霉到极处，一般来说，还是不会与祷机狭路相逢。
Vedic text flickered on the surface, with a "Buddha" as large as a grain of rice.
ér zuò wèi líng jiè sì xiōng ， dǎo jī xuè mài de yōu yì ， gèng yuǎn fēi yì bān de tiān dì líng zú kě bǐ ， zhè nèi dān suī shì fēn hún suǒ xíng chéng zhī wù ， dàn lǐ miàn hái shì yī sī xī de běn yuán lì liàng zài lǐ tou 。
而做为灵界四凶，祷机血脉的优异，更远非一般的天地灵族可比，这内丹虽是分魂所形成之物，但里面还是一丝牺的本源力量在里头。
Golden Relic!
suī rán miǎo xiǎo ， què rú tóng yī lì zhǒng zi ， zhǐ yào yùn yòng shì dàng ， dé dào de hǎo chù jiāng nán yǐ xiǎng chōng kàn zhuó shǒu zhōng zhī wù ， lín xuān fèi le hǎo dà de gōng fu ， cái yā xià jiāng xī zhí jiē tūn fú de niàn tou 。
虽然渺小，却如同一粒种子，只要运用适当，得到的好处将难以想充看着手中之物，林轩费了好大的功夫，才压下将牺直接吞服的念头。
This was far more rare than ordinary relics. Its formation required much greater conditions; its owner must be a great monk with extraordinary cultivation and practice of special techniques.
huà kě yǐ luàn shuō ， dōng xī què shì bù kě néng suí biàn chī de 。 dǎo jī de běn yuán zhī lì ， yùn yòng dé hǎo gù rán miào yòng wú qióng ， rú guǒ yùn yòng bù dàng ……， yě yǒu kě néng bào tǐ ér wáng 。
话可以乱说，东西却是不可能随便吃的。祷机的本源之力，运用得好固然妙用无穷，如果运用不当……，也有可能爆体而亡。
In some sense, this Golden Relic's value did not fall short of Wicked Soul's internalpill.
xiū xiān suī shì nì tiān ér xíng ， dàn zhè yàng wú wèi de fēng xiǎn ， ruò méi yǒu shí zú de bǎ wò ， lín xuān yě bú huì qù mào 。
修仙虽是逆天而行，但这样无谓的风险，若没有十足的把握，林轩也不会去冒。
If obtained by Buddhist sects, it could instantly boost one's cultivation when perfectly integrated.
cǐ nèi dān hái shì xiān tuǒ shàn shōu hǎo ， děng zhǔn bèi wán shàn yǐ hòu ， zài màn màn chǔ lǐ diào de 。
此内丹还是先妥善收好，等准备完善以后，再慢慢处理掉的。
Lin Xuan was not a Buddhist cultivator but understood its potential. It was also an item that could be found only rarely.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān chóng xīn jiāng xī zhuāng rù yù hé ， rán hòu tiē shàng jìn zhì fú zhuàn 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩重新将牺装入玉盒，然后贴上禁制符篆。
PS: How could I forget raindrops? But my writing speed is really slow, and I apologize to everyone for the delay. I'll try harder. Today, I'm going all out; expect 9000 words. Please support me!
