bù guò tā shēn shàng de jí pǐn jīng shí suī rán hái yǒu shǎo xǔ ， dàn huǒ shǔ xìng de yě jiù nà me liǎng lì ， wèi le zhè xiǎo ” jiā huo ， lín xuān hái bù dé bù pǎo le jǐ tàng fāng shì 。
不过他身上的极品晶石虽然还有少许，但火属性的也就那么两粒，为了这小”家伙，林轩还不得不跑了几趟坊市。
However, although he still had a few top-grade crystal stones on him, the fire attribute ones were only two. In order to get this "little guy," Lin Xuan had to make several trips to the market.
pǔ tōng de diàn pù zhōng zì rán méi yǒu ， jí shǐ zài líng jiè zhī zhōng ， jí pǐn jīng shí yě kě yù ér bù kě qiú 。
普通的店铺中自然没有，即使在灵界之中，极品晶石也可遇而不可求。
Ordinary shops did not have such items; even in the Spirit Realm, top-grade crystal stones were hard to come by.
hǎo zài shàng wèi jiè miàn bì jìng yǔ rén jiè bù tóng ， pāi mài huì zhōng hái shì kě néng chū xiàn zhè zhǒng bǎo wù 。
好在上位界面毕竟与人界不同，拍卖会中还是可能出现这种宝物。
Fortunately, the upper-level interface was different from the mortal world. Auctions still might produce such treasures.
pǔ tōng jīng shí ， bù tóng děng jiē jiān de duì huàn bǐ lì ， shì yī bǐ yì bǎi ， dàn jí pǐn jīng shí bù néng yòng cháng lǐ chuǎi mó ， xī de dìng wèi shì zhēn xī bǎo wù ， lín xuān zài pāi mài huì shàng dà bǎ de jīng shí sǎ xià ，huā fèi zhe shí bù shǎo a ！
普通晶石，不同等阶间的兑换比例，是一比一百，但极品晶石不能用常理揣摩，牺的定位是珍稀宝物，林轩在拍卖会上大把的晶石洒下，huā费着实不少啊！
The exchange ratio between ordinary and lower-grade crystal stones was one-to-one hundred, but with top-grade ones, it couldn't be gauged by common sense; their positioning was that of rare treasures. Lin Xuan spent a considerable amount of his wealth at auctions, truly not in vain!
hǎo zài dà bǐ de cái fù ， bìng méi yǒu dǎ shuǐ piāo ， xiǎo gǒu zài bù duàn fú yòng zhī hòu ， shí lì zhú jiàn zēng qiáng ， lián líng zhì yě yǒu cháng zú de zēng zhǎng ， suī rán yuǎn méi dào yǔ rén lèi xiāng bǐ de dì bù ， dàn yě zhe shí kě guān le 。
好在大笔的财富，并没有打水漂，小狗在不断服用之后，实力逐渐增强，连灵智也有长足的增长，虽然远没到与人类相比的地步，但也着实可观了。
Thanks to the substantial fortune, the little dog's strength and spirit intelligence had gradually increased after continuous consumption. While far from human levels, they were still quite impressive.
fēng liàn zhī yú ， lín xuān yě méi yǒu yī wèi de dài zài dòng fǔ ， ér shì gé sān chà wǔ de jiù qù fǎng yǒu 。
锋炼之余，林轩也没有一味的待在洞府，而是隔三差五的就去访友。
Apart from refining, Lin Xuan also visited friends occasionally and participated in some small exchanges. He would drink and socialize with fellow cultivators of similar rank, exchanging cultivation insights. These interactions brought him many benefits.
cān jiā yī xiē xiǎo xíng jiāo huàn huì 。
参加一些小型交换会。
Indeed, Nine Immortal City was different; there were dozens of Separation Period cultivators nearby. Lin Xuan got along well with most of them.
yǔ tóng jiē xiū shì yǐn jiǔ zuò lè ， jiāo huàn xiū liàn xīn dé 。
与同阶修士饮酒作乐，交换修炼心得。
As the saying goes, "many friends mean more paths." For a妖族, this technique was indeed extremely powerful but required stringent conditions. First, because it could instantly travel thousands of miles, the speed far exceeded normal teleportation; thus, the practitioner's body needed to be exceptionally strong. Otherwise, such high-speed movement would result in an explosion.
zhè zhōng jiān dào yě huò yì liáng duō 。
这中间倒也获益良多。
From this perspective, this cultivation method suited the妖族better. Human cultivators wishing to learn it had to be exceptional physical cultivators from the Buddhist sect or a refinement expert among the cultivators of beasts. Lin Xuan wasn't too concerned about this; the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique already strengthened his body, and after consuming so many refined phoenix fruit, his physique was far stronger than ordinary Separation Period beasts. High-speed movement posed no problem.
jiǔ xiān chéng guǒ rán bù tóng ， guāng shì zhè fù jìn de lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， jiù yǒu shù shí zhī duō ， lín xuān yǔ tā men zhōng de dà bù fèn rén ， xiāng chǔ bù cuò 。
九仙城果然不同，光是这附近的离合期修仙者，就有数十之多，林轩与他们中的大部分人，相处不错。
But even with these issues resolved, there were still challenges ahead. The amount of spiritual energy required for this technique was enormous. Although it could instantly move thousands of miles and create nearly a hundred realistic illusions to confuse enemies, the process consumed enough spiritual energy to exhaust an ordinary Separation Period cultivator.
suǒ wèi duō gè péng yǒu duō tiáo lù ， bǐ cǐ zhī jiān ， fǎn zhèng yě méi shá lì yì chōng tū 。
所谓多个朋友多条路，彼此之间，反正也没啥利益冲突。
A thousand miles might seem far, but it was within the range of a Separation Period cultivator's divine perception, let alone an Elder of the Profound Dao Realm. The opponent could lock onto and pursue them, leaving the practitioner defenseless once the illusion vanished.
ér suí zhe lín xuān duì líng jiè liǎo jiě de shēn rù ， tā men zì rán wú fǎ kàn chū qí fēi shēng xiū shì de shēn fèn lái le 。
而随着林轩对灵界了解的深入，他们自然无法看出其飞升修士的身份来了。
Despite this, Lin Xuan felt confident after reading through the technique multiple times. His spiritual energy far exceeded that of his peers; even if he moved twice, there would still be some left to use. This was one advantage!
qí jiān ， lín xuān yě páng qiāo cè jī ， dǎ tīng yuè ér yǔ rú yān xiān zi de xiāo xī ， kě xī yī wú suǒ huò ， zhì yú qín xīn ， nà jiù gèng bú yòng shuō ， tā zài zhè dōng hǎi xiū xiān jiè de kě néng shì wēi hū qí wēi de 。
其间，林轩也旁敲侧击，打听月儿与如嫣仙子的消息，可惜一无所获，至于琴心，那就更不用说，她在这东海修仙界的可能是微乎其微的。
Moreover, he had almost a full bottle of ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk in his possession. If his spiritual energy ran out, drinking just a drop could quickly restore it.
zài cǐ qī jiān ， lín xuān tōng guò pāi mài huì yǔ jiāo huàn ， dào yě jiāng liàn zhì huǒ jiàn de cái liào ， còu le gè shí zhī qī bā chū lái ， rán ér shèng xià de ， wú yī bú shì zhēn jǐng zhī wù xiǎng yào zài zhǎo dào ， kě jiù yuǎn méi yǒu nà me róng yì le 。
在此期间，林轩通过拍卖会与交换，倒也将炼制火剑的材料，凑了个十之七八出来，然而剩下的，无一不是珍井之物想要再找到，可就远没有那么容易了。
Ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk was also considered a divine treasure in the Spirit Realm; Lin Xuan hadn't seen any in the market yet. Therefore, he would only use it as a last resort to save his life.
zēng jìn fǎ lì de dān yào yī jiù méi yǒu shén me xiàn suǒ ， bù guò suí zhe duì qí lín guǒ rì fù yí rì de tūn fú ， lín xuān de ròu shēn ， què zài bù tíng de qiáng huà zhe 。
增进法力的丹药依旧没有什么线索，不过随着对麒麟果日复一日的吞服，林轩的肉身，却在不停的强化着。
After some time, Lin Xuan began practicing this illusion technique. With the foundation of the Moonlit Heavenly Witch Technique, he made good progress and mastered it within three months. He then tested it in an uninhabited place, confirming its effectiveness—capable of moving thousands of miles while creating illusions that could deceive enemies.
suī rán fǎ lì zēng zhǎng huǎn màn yǐ jí ， dàn mò yuè tiān wū jué lín xuān yǐ jīng kāi shǐ xiū xí 。
虽然法力增长缓慢以极，但墨月天巫诀林轩已经开始修习。
On a day when he was meditating, Lin Xuan took out an jade bottle from his waist. Opening the lid, he poured out its contents; though only as small as a red bean, it glowed with golden light and emitted vast Buddhist energy. Sanskrit text flickered on its surface, and most prominently, there was a tiny "Buddha" grain-sized.
duǎn qī nèi ， kàn bù chū shén me xiào guǒ ， dàn qí zhōng de yī zhǒng mì shù ， què yǐn qǐ lín xuān de xìng qù le 。
短期内，看不出什么效果，但其中的一种秘术，却引起林轩的兴趣了。
Holding this precious artifact, Lin Xuan's expression turned serious. This diamond舍利 was obtained from Penglai Mountain. Its value was beyond measure; ordinary舍利子 were formed only by high-ranking monks after their death, making diamond舍利 even more rare. That’s why he hadn’t processed it immediately—wasting such a treasure would be wrong.
huàn yǐng dùn ！
幻影遁！
It was just luck that he found the method to refine this diamond舍利 recently. The first item at Red Leaf Island's auction had been a mere prop for entertainment purposes. Few people bid on it, and Lin Xuan bought it for three ten-thousand middle-grade crystal stones.
gù míng sī yì ， zhè shì yī zhǒng zhuān mén yòng yú táo pǎo de mì fǎ 。
顾名思义，这是一种专门用于逃跑的秘法。
This belonged to an eminent monk named Wumei Chan Shi, who was renowned as the top cultivator in the East Sea.
cǐ shén tōng de xuán miào zhī chù zài yú ， yí dàn shī zhǎn ， kě yǐ huà shēn wàn qiān …… ń ， zhè ge shuō fǎ kuā zhāng le diǎn dàn huà shēn chū jìn bǎi gè huàn yǐng hái shì méi yǒu wèn tí ， bìng qiě kě yǐ shùn jiān dùn táo chū qiān lǐ 。
此神通的玄妙之处在于，一旦施展，可以化身万千……嗯，这个说法夸张了点但化身出近百个幻影还是没有问题，并且可以瞬间遁逃出千里。
His abilities were formidable—capable of subduing demons and suppressing monsters—but unfortunately, his technique was incomplete. Its value would be incalculable if intact.
rú cǐ yī lái ， suī rán bù néng tí gāo shí lì ， dàn miàn duì kě pà de wēi xiǎn ， què dà dà tí gāo le shēng cún lǜ 。
如此一来，虽然不能提高实力，但面对可怕的危险，却大大提高了生存率。
However, compared to Moonlit Heavenly Witch Technique, it was insignificant. Lin Xuan had no intention of abandoning Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique; besides, human energy was limited. He understood the principle that one shouldn't bite off more than they could chew and thus decided not to practice any Buddhist techniques.
xué huì cǐ shù ， jiù suàn zài miàn duì dú lóng lǎo zǔ ， lín xuān yě yǒu bǎ wò táo tuō 。
学会此术，就算再面对毒龙老祖，林轩也有把握逃脱。
Nevertheless, he still read through this technique thoroughly.
zhè me hǎo de dōng xī lín xuān qǐ huì cuò guò 。
这么好的东西林轩岂会错过。
One can learn from others' experiences. Perhaps it would provide useful insights.
bù guò zài wǎng xià kàn ， lín xuān méi tóu yòu zhòu zài yì qǐ le 。
不过再往下看，林轩眉头又皱在一起了。
After all, he had spent three ten-thousand crystal stones on it; discarding it seemed wasteful.
zì jǐ hái shì xiǎng xiàng dé tài jiǎn dān jǐ cǐ dùn shù què shí xuán miào yǐ jí dàn xiǎng yào liàn chéng ， tiáo jiàn yě fēi cháng kē kè 。
自己还是想象得太简单己此遁术确实玄妙以极但想要炼成，条件也非常苛刻。
Lin Xuan was originally just curious but ended up finding the method to refine the diamond舍利. Wumei Chan Shi highly revered this item; not everyone could form one even if they were powerful Buddhist cultivators. First, one had to be a high-ranking monk, and there were many restrictions. The odds of forming one were slim.
dì yī ， yīn wèi huàn yǐng dùn néng gòu shùn xī qiān lǐ ， cóng sù dù shàng ， yuǎn yuǎn kuài guò le yì bān yì yì shàng de shùn yí ， suǒ yǐ yāo qiú shī shù rén de shēn tǐ ， bì xū qiáng hèng yǐ jí fǒu zé zhè zhǒng chāo gāo sù yí dòng de xià chǎng zhǐ yǒu yí gè ， bào tǐ 。
第一，因为幻影遁能够瞬息千里，从速度上，远远快过了一般意义上的瞬移，所以要求施术人的身体，必须强横以极否则这种超高速移动的下场只有一个，爆体。
However, once formed, it offered countless benefits. Even non-Buddhist cultivators who refined the diamond舍利 could use numerous Buddhist secrets.
cóng zhè ge yì yì lái shuō ， cǐ gōng fǎ duì yāo zú gèng shì hé ， rén zú xiū shì xiǎng liàn de huà ， chú fēi shì fú zōng huò zhě xiū yāo zhě zhōng de liàn tǐ shì ér qiě hái bì xū chū lèi bá cuì de nà zhǒng 。
从这个意义来说，此功法对妖族更适合，人族修士想炼的话，除非是佛宗或者修妖者中的炼体士而且还必须出类拔萃的那种。
Seeing this, Lin Xuan was greatly excited—almost blushing with joy.
zhè ge yāo qiú lín xuān dǎo shì bù zěn me zài yì ， fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué běn lái jiù yǒu jiā qiáng ròu shēn de xiào guǒ ， tā yòu fú shí le nà me duō tí chún hòu de qí lín guǒ ròu shēn zhī qiáng ， suī rán hái yuǎn bú dào kě yǐ yìng káng tóng jiē xiū shì de fǎ bǎo dàn yǔ pǔ tōng de lí hé qī yāo zú xiāng bǐ ， jué duì zhǐ qiáng bù ruò 。
这个要求林轩倒是不怎么在意，凤舞九天诀本来就有加强肉身的效果，他又服食了那么多提纯后的麒麟果肉身之强，虽然还远不到可以硬扛同阶修士的法宝但与普通的离合期妖族相比，绝对只强不弱。
It was well-known that there were many schools in cultivation; most had perished over time. Only the orthodox, evil, Confucian, and Buddhist schools remained, along with cultivators of beasts.
chéng shòu chāo gāo sù yí dòng jué duì méi yǒu wèn tí de 。
承受超高速移动绝对没有问题的。
Although all could become true immortals if they reached their peak, their understanding of the Dao differed, leading to distinct cultivation methods.
dàn jí biàn jiě jué le yǎn qián de chè zhǒu ， hòu miàn yī jiù yǒu nán tí 。
但即便解决了眼前的掣肘，后面依旧有难题。
Cultivators from different schools couldn't use each other's spells. For instance, many Confucian spells required immense righteousness; without it, one was left helpless. The same applied to Buddhist techniques—requiring a certain kind of mystical Buddhist energy that Lin Xuan didn’t have. However, once he refined the diamond舍利, he could borrow this energy and use Buddhist spells.
jiù shì cǐ gōng fǎ suǒ xiāo hào de fǎ lì ， shí zài tài duō ， suī rán néng gòu shùn jiān yí dòng dào qiān lǐ zhī wài ， bìng qiě biàn huàn chū jìn bǎi gè fǎng ruò zhēn rén de huàn yǐng mí huò dí rén ， dàn zhè guò chéng suǒ xū yào de fǎ lì ， zú yǐ ràng yī míng pǔ tōng de lí hé chū qī xiū shì ， fǎ lì hào jìn 。
就是此功法所消耗的法力，实在太多，虽然能够瞬间移动到千里之外，并且变幻出近百个仿若真人的幻影迷惑敌人，但这过程所需要的法力，足以让一名普通的离合初期修士，法力耗尽。
Lin Xuan was delighted; it was like gaining another Buddhist technique. He had always been interested in Buddhist secrets but lacked time before. Now, with more time, he wouldn't worry about it.
qiān lǐ ， tīng qǐ lái shì hěn yuǎn le ， dàn hái zài lí hé qī xiū shì de shén shí gǎn yìng fàn wéi ， gèng bú yào shuō dòng xuán qī lǎo guài 。
千里，听起来是很远了，但还在离合期修士的神识感应范围，更不要说洞玄期老怪。
For example, Wumei Chan Shi's incomplete technique couldn’t be practiced, but several complete techniques were mentioned that Lin Xuan could use later.
duì fāng wán quán kě yǐ suǒ dìng zhuī guò lái ， nà shí hòu ， shī zhǎn cǐ shù de xiū shì ， kě jiù shì rèn rén zǎi gē ， gēn běn méi yǒu huán shǒu zhī lì le 。
对方完全可以锁定追过来，那时候，施展此术的修士，可就是任人宰割，根本没有还手之力了。
Overjoyed, Lin Xuan didn't waste any time and brought the jade bottle to his eyes, delving into its contents with his divine perception. Refining a diamond舍利 wasn't simple; it was incredibly complex, making understanding difficult.
bì jìng huàn yǐng zhǐ shì zài yí dòng zhī shí chǎn shēng ， yòng yú mí huò dí rén ， hěn kuài ， jiù huì xiāo shī 。
毕竟幻影只是在移动之时产生，用于迷惑敌人，很快，就会消失。
But Lin Xuan didn’t care; compared to the benefits, it was insignificant. He meticulously pondered each word, fearing any misunderstanding.
cóng zhè ge jiǎo dù lái shuō ， cǐ gōng fǎ shèn zhì yǒu xiē jī lèi ， bù guò lín xuān zài fǎn fù dú le shù biàn yǐ hòu ， què jué de méi yǒu wèn tí ， jiǎn zhí xiàng shì wèi zì jǐ liàng shēn dìng zuò dì 。
从这个角度来说，此功法甚至有些鸡肋，不过林轩在反复读了数遍以后，却觉得没有问题，简直像是为自己量身定做地。
During this process, he read many Buddhist scriptures and consulted an elderly monk named Jin Hong Chan Shi, a Separation Period cultivator who had met in exchanges. They got along well, but Lin Xuan didn’t show him the entire text; instead, he asked for advice on snippets…
tā de fǎ lì ， yuǎn fēi tóng jiē xiū shì kě bǐ ， jiù suàn shì yí dòng liǎng cì ， tǐ è nèi de zhēn yuán ， yī jiù kě yǐ shèng xià shǎo xǔ ， bù zhì yú wán quán méi yǒu huán shǒu zhī lì 。
他的法力，远非同阶修士可比，就算是移动两次，体垩内的真元，依旧可以剩下少许，不至于完全没有还手之力。
P.S.: Little Lin is diligently enhancing his strength while meditating. Suddenly, his expression changed dramatically as if something significant happened. Why are my recommendation votes so low? Without them to protect me, I might go astray. Fellow cultivators, please support Little Lin with your recommendation votes! !~!
However, although he still had a few top-grade crystal stones on him, the fire attribute ones were only two. In order to get this "little guy," Lin Xuan had to make several trips to the market.
