我试试。”，金发老者缓步上前，脸上满是凝重之意”他并没有贸然攻击，而是伸出手来，轻轻在石门上敲击。
"I'll give it a try," said the balding old man as he slowly approached, his face serious. He didn't attack rashly but instead reached out and gently tapped on the stone door.
hái cè zhe ěr duǒ ， liú shén qīng tīng 。
还侧着耳朵，留神倾听。
He leaned in close to listen intently.
suí hòu yáng shǒu wàng tiān ， sì hū zài sī suǒ shén me nán tí ， zhěng gè rén de biǎo qíng ， kàn shàng qù qí guài yǐ jí 。
随后扬首望天，似乎在思索什么难题，整个人的表情，看上去奇怪以极。
Then he raised his head to gaze at the sky as if pondering some difficult problem. His expression was extremely strange.
dào zhuāng lǎo zhě bìng méi yǒu cuī cù ， zhè wèi yú lǎo guài suī jìn jí dòng xuán ， bǐ zì jǐ zú zú wǎn le yī qiān nián ” dàn xiū liàn de shén tōng tè shū ， ér qiě jiàn shí guǎng bó ， cǐ xíng zì rán shì yǐ tā wéi zhǔ 。
道装老者并没有催促，这位余老怪虽晋级洞玄，比自己足足晚了一千年”但修炼的神通特殊，而且见识广博，此行自然是以他为主。
The Daoist elder did not urge him further; though Old Master Yu had advanced to the Cave Profound stage, a thousand years behind Lin Xuan, but his cultivation techniques were unique and his knowledge extensive. Thus, this mission would naturally be led by him.
guò le yuē yī zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， jīn fà lǎo zhě tū rán chuí xià tou lú ， liǎng zhǐ wēi qū ， zài é tóu shàng qīng kòu bù yǐ ” fǎng fú dào zhēn xiàng shì yù jiàn le nán tí 。
过了约一盏茶的功夫，金发老者突然垂下头颅，两指微屈，在额头上轻叩不已”仿佛倒真像是遇见了难题。
After about a cup of tea's time, the balding old man suddenly lowered his head, using two fingers to tap repeatedly on his forehead as if truly facing a difficult problem.
cè gěn kuài ， tā tū rán yuǎn zhēng shuāng yǎn ” móu dǐ shēn chù ， yì sè shǎn guò ， rán hòu yī dào fǎ jué jiē yī dào fǎ jué de dǎ chū ， liǎng shǒu rú chuān huā hú dié bān bù tíng fēi wǔ 。
侧艮快，他突然远睁双眼”眸底深处，异色闪过，然后一道法诀皆一道法诀的打出，两手如穿huā蝴蝶般不停飞舞。
Suddenly, he widened his eyes. A strange color flashed in his pupils, and then one after another, he cast out spells with both hands moving like butterflies.
nà xiē fǎ jué wǔ yán liù sè ， shí mén shàng tū rán zhàn fàng chū yào mù de bái guāng lái le ， hái yǒu yī zhèn qīng míng shēng fā chū 。
那些法诀五颜六色，石门上突然绽放出耀目的白光来了，还有一阵清鸣声发出。
Those spells were of various colors, and the stone door suddenly emitted brilliant white light, accompanied by a clear ringing sound.
“ zhè ……”， dào zhuāng lǎo zhě yǒu xiē chī jīng le ， jīn lǎo guài què sà rán zhuǎn guò tóu lú ：“ lǎo fū suǒ liào guǒ rán méi cuò ， zhè jiù shì yì kōng zhī mén le 。”
“这……”，道装老者有些吃惊了，金老怪却飒然转过头颅：“老夫所料果然没错，这就是异空之门了。”
"This..." The Daoist elder was somewhat surprised. But Old Master Gold said with a swift turn of his head: "My guess is indeed correct; this must be the Door to Another Space."
“ yì kōng zhī mén ， nà shì shén me dōng xī ？”
“异空之门，那是什么东西？”
"What on earth is the Door to Another Space?"
“ yě nán guài qiū dào yǒu méi yǒu tīng shuō ” wǒ yě shì ǒu rán zài yī běn gǔ jí shàng kàn dào guò guān yú cǐ wù de miáo shù ， bù guò xū yú kōng jiān dào yǒu yīng gāi bìng bù mò shēng de 。”
“也难怪邱道友没有听说”我也是偶然在一本古籍上看到过关于此物的描述，不过须臾空间道友应该并不陌生的。”
"It's no wonder Fellow Daoist Qiu hasn't heard about it. I only came across a description in an ancient text by chance, but you should be familiar with the concept of a spatial domain."
“ xū yú kōng jiān ， lǎo fū zì rán xiǎo de ， nà shì jīng tōng kōng jiān mì shù de dà néng xiū shì kāi pì chū lái hǎo ” rú guǒ yōng yǒu kōng jiān lèi de tōng tiān líng bǎo ， jù shuō yě yǒu tóng yàng de gōng xiào 。” dào zhuāng lǎo zhě bì jìng shì dòng xuán qī ， suī rán zuì jìn liǎng qiān nián bù sī jìn qǔ ” chén zuì yú yīng gē yàn wǔ lǐ ， dàn jiàn shí bì jìng hái shì bù cuò dì 。
“须臾空间，老夫自然晓得，那是精通空间秘术的大能修士开辟出来好”如果拥有空间类的通天灵宝，据说也有同样的功效。”道装老者毕竟是洞玄期，虽然最近两千年不思进取”沉醉于莺歌燕舞里，但见识毕竟还是不错地。
"Relax," said Old Master Gold arrogantly. "Since I can recognize it, there will surely be a way to break through." He added confidently, "But it'll take some effort."
“ dào yǒu suǒ yán méi cuò ， dàn què yí lòu le yì diǎn de ， huò zhě shuō ， bìng bú shì tài zhǔn què ， bù cuò ， nǐ shuō de nà zhǒng qíng kuàng ” què shí néng gòu kāi pì chū dú lì kōng jiān ” dàn chú fēi xiū wèi dào le dù jié qī ” shèn zhì shì sàn xiān nà zhǒng děng jí ， jí biàn shǒu chí líng bǎo kāi pì chū lái de yě bù guò shì yī ǒu zhī dì ， zuì duō zuò yí gè xiǎo xiǎo de dòng fǔ ér yǐ 。”
“道友所言没错，但却遗漏了一点的，或者说，并不是太准确，不错，你说的那种情况”确实能够开辟出独立空间”但除非修为到了渡劫期”甚至是散仙那种等级，即便手持灵宝开辟出来的也不过是一偶之地，最多做一个小小的洞府而已。”
"So, Fellow Brother Yu, this is your task."
“ ó ” nà xiǎng yào dà de xū yú kōng jiān yòu gāi zěn me zuò ？” dào xǐ lǎo kàn hǎo qí de shuō 。
“哦”那想要大的须臾空间又该怎么做？”道喜老看好奇的说。
The Daoist elder was delighted; the Door to Another Space was no trivial matter and was usually used to store great secrets. This time, they might catch several of the culprits and perhaps even find unexpected treasures.
“ hěn jiǎn dān ， gǎi zào ， xún yī wěn dìng de kōng jiān xuán wō huò shì fèng xì ， duì qí gǎi zào ” zhè bǐ píng kōng kāi pì yào róng yì dé duō ， dāng rán yě yāo qiú xiū xiān zhě bì xū jīng tōng kōng jiān lèi fǎ shù ， ér qiě hái xū yào xiāo hào bù shǎo zhēn guì de cái liào bǎo wù 。”
“很简单，改造，寻一稳定的空间漩涡或是缝隙，对其改造”这比凭空开辟要容易得多，当然也要求修仙者必须精通空间类法术，而且还需要消耗不少珍贵的材料宝物。”
Misfortune may be an actual blessing in disguise, and a blessing may turn out to be a misfortune. The ancients were not deceiving us; luck is indeed hard to predict.
“ yuán lái rú cǐ 。” dào zhuāng lǎo zhě liǎn shàng lù chū liǎo rán zhī sè ：“ bù guò dào yǒu tū rán jiǎng zhè me duō ” yīng gāi bú huì shì wú dì fàng shǐ le 。”
“原来如此。”道装老者脸上露出了然之色：“不过道友突然讲这么多”应该不会是无的放矢了。”
"Ha ha, no need for thanks. I'll still need your help later."
“ bù cuò ” bù guǎn kāi pì hái shì gǎi zào chū xū yú kōng jiān yǐ hòu ， chuàng zào zhě ， píng zhe kōng jiān mì shù ， gù rán kě yǐ zì yǒu jìn chū ” dàn qí tā rén ruò xiǎng jìn rù ” jiù bì xū yào yǒu yī tiáo lián jiē tōng dào le ， ér zhè lián jiē zhī wù ， yuǎn zài tiān biān ， jìn zài yǎn qián 。”
“不错”不管开辟还是改造出须臾空间以后，创造者，凭着空间秘术，固然可以自有进出”但其他人若想进入”就必须要有一条连接通道了，而这连接之物，远在天边，近在眼前。”
"No problem," said Fellow Daoist Qiu. "If there's anything I can do, just let me know."
“ dào yǒu shì shuō ， yì kōng zhī mén ” ér zhè hòu miàn ， shì yī xū yú kōng jiān ？”，“ bù cuò ， ér qiě zhè yì kōng zhī mén ， hái bèi zuò le shǒu jiǎo ， duǎn shí jiān nèi ” zhǐ néng dǎ kāi yī cì ， rán hòu jiù huì bèi fēng yìn zhù 。”
“道友是说，异空之门”而这后面，是一须臾空间？”，“不错，而且这异空之门，还被做了手脚，短时间内”只能打开一次，然后就会被封印住。”
With the promise from his counterpart, Old Master Gold did not say more and waved his sleeves. Several things shot out—swords, spears, and other powerful treasures. Besides these, there were also several crystal stones and some dark-looking thunder beads.
“ nà nà kě rú hé shì hǎo ne ？” dào zhuāng lǎo zhě jiāo jí de shuō ， tā suī shì dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ” dàn duì kōng jiān fǎ zé ， què yī qiào bù tōng ” nà shì suǒ yǒu tiān dì fǎ zé zhōng ， zuì wèi kùn nán de yī zhǒng 。
“那那可如何是好呢？”道装老者焦急的说，他虽是洞玄期修仙者”但对空间法则，却一窍不通”那是所有天地法则中，最为困难的一种。
The Daoist elder's eyes flickered with suspicion but he did not interrupt at this crucial moment.
“ fàng xīn ， wǒ jì rán kě yǐ rèn chū ， zì rán yě huì yǒu pò jiě zhī tú ” zhǐ bù guò xū yào huā fèi yī fān gōng fu 。” jīn fà lǎo zhě ào rán de shuō ” xiǎn de xìn xīn shí zú 。
“放心，我既然可以认出，自然也会有破解之徒”只不过需要huā费一番功夫。”金发老者傲然的说”显得信心十足。
Meanwhile, inside the spatial domain.
“ rú cǐ kě jiù yǒu láo yú xiōng dì le 。”
“如此可就有劳余兄弟了。”
BOOM!
dào zhuāng lǎo zhě dà xǐ ” xū yú kōng jiān kě shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě zhī wù ， yì bān dōu shì yòng lái bǎo cún dà mì mì de ， zhè yī cì chú le zhuō zhù jǐ míng zhào shì zhě ” yě xǔ hái huì yǒu yì xiǎng bú dào de shōu huò 。
道装老者大喜”须臾空间可是非同小可之物，一般都是用来保存大秘密的，这一次除了捉住几名肇事者”也许还会有意想不到的收获。
A loud noise entered their ears as the blue-red protective barrier finally vanished.
fú xī huò suǒ yī ， huò xī fú suǒ fú ” gǔ rén chéng bù qī wǒ ， zhè yùn qì zhī shì ， guǒ rán shì hěn nán shuō 。
福兮祸所依，祸兮福所伏”古人诚不欺我，这运气之事，果然是很难说。
However, everyone's faces were grim. The sounds in the grand hall had stopped nearly half an hour ago, meaning that the other party had already broken through the restrictions earlier and might have taken most of the treasures.
“ hēi hēi ， bù yòng kè qì ， yī huì er hái yào dào yǒu bāng máo ”
“嘿嘿，不用客气，一会儿还要道友帮毛”
Could it be too late to salvage anything?
“ méi wèn tí ” yǒu yòng dào yé mǒu zhī chù ， xiōng dì jǐn guǎn shuō 。”
“没问题”有用到耶某之处，兄弟尽管说。”
They would not give up as long as there was a chance to solve the problem here.
dé dào duì fāng de chéng nuò ， jīn fà lǎo zhě bù zài duō shuō ， xiù páo yī fú ， cóng lǐ miàn fēi shè chū bù shǎo shì wù ” dāo qiāng jiàn jǐ ， zhè xiē dōu shì wēi lì bù xiǎo de bǎo wù ， kě chú cǐ yǐ wài ， hái yǒu jīng shí yǐ jí jǐ lì hēi hū hū de léi zhū ， zhè jiù yǒu xiē qí guài le 。
得到对方的承诺，金发老者不再多说，袖袍一拂，从里面飞射出不少事物”刀枪剑戟，这些都是威力不小的宝物，可除此以外，还有晶石以及几粒黑乎乎的雷珠，这就有些奇怪了。
Gold Yi led the charge into the grand hall first. The others, though hesitant due to potential traps, still entered one by one when they thought about the treasures.
dào zhuāng lǎo zhě yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī yí sè ， bù guò zài zhè jǐn yào guān tóu ， tā zì rán bú huì hú luàn chā zuǐ duō kǒu 。
道装老者眼中闪过一丝疑色，不过在这紧要关头，他自然不会胡乱插嘴多口。
Lin Xuan deliberately stayed at the back.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， xū yú kōng jiān nèi bù 。
与此同时，须臾空间内部。
Once inside the door, the scene in front of them was clear.
hōng ！
轰！
This grand hall was even larger than expected—thousand feet wide and long—but it was unusually empty. Only a few tall columns stood there, with nothing else.
yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà lán hóng liǎng sè de hù zhào zhōng yú mǐn miè diào le 。
一声巨响传入耳朵，那蓝红两色的护罩终于泯灭掉了。
No... There were still things.
rán ér zhòng rén liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng què yīn mái yǐ jí ， zǎo zài dà bàn gè shí chén yǐ qián ， dà diàn zhōng de shēng xiǎng jiù yǐ jīng tíng zhǐ ， huàn jù huà shuō ” duì fāng bǐ tā men gèng zǎo pò chú jìn zhì ， jiù bù zhī dào lǐ miàn de bǎo wù ， shì fǒu suǒ shèng wú jǐ 。
然而众人脸上的表情却阴霾以极，早在大半个时辰以前，大殿中的声响就已经停止，换句话说”对方比他们更早破除禁制，就不知道里面的宝物，是否所剩无几。
Some red cloths and paintings scattered on the ground.
wáng yáng bǔ láo ， shì fǒu yǐ jīng wǎn yǐ ？
亡羊补牢，是否已经晚矣？
Everyone's expressions turned ugly.
zài zhè lǐ xiǎng ， jiě jué bù liǎo wèn tí ” zhǐ yào yǒu yī xiàn xī wàng ， tā men jiù jué bú huì fàng qì 。
在这里想，解决不了问题”只要有一线希望，他们就绝不会放弃。
"Hey, there's an altar over there."
jīn yì yī mǎ dāng xiān de chōng le jìn qù 。
金义一马当先的冲了进去。
Following Mingquan Fairy's exclamation, everyone turned to see that the altar was behind a flickering screen. That explained why they hadn't noticed it earlier. Now, no one wanted to miss out; they rushed forward eagerly.
qí yú zhī rén suī rán shāo yǒu xiē chí yí ” bù zhī dào lǐ miàn yǒu méi yǒu mái fú ， dàn yī xiǎng dào bǎo wù ， hái shì yú guàn ér rù 。
其余之人虽然稍有些迟疑”不知道里面有没有埋伏，但一想到宝物，还是鱼贯而入。
However, what they saw upon entering was disappointing.
lín xuān què yǒu yì wú yì de luò zài zuì hòu miàn le 。
林轩却有意无意的落在最后面了。
On the altar were three large chests, each measuring three feet in length, width, and height—clearly capable of holding many items.
jìn rù diàn mén yǐ hòu ， lǐ miàn de jǐng wù ” zì rán yī lǎn wú yú 。
进入殿门以后，里面的景物”自然一览无余。
But the chests had already been opened, obviously destroyed by some powerful force. The contents inside were all gone, taken away by someone.
zhè dà diàn ， bǐ xiǎng xiàng de ， dōu hái yào kuān guǎng nà me yī xiē ， zú yǒu qiān zhàng zhī jǔ ， rán ér què kōng kuàng yǐ jí 。
这大殿，比想象的，都还要宽广那么一些，足有千丈之举，然而却空旷以极。
Although they had expected this result, the five of them still looked pale as death when they saw it with their own eyes.
chú le yī hěn hěn de lì zhù ， jī hū bié wú tā wú 。
除了一狠狠的立柱，几乎别无他无。
"Damn, which bastard took my treasures? I'll rip his soul and spirit out," Gold Yi said with bloodshot eyes.
bù …… hái shì yǒu dōng xī 。
不……还是有东西。
"Not until I destroy that bastard will I be able to forget my anger," Mingquan Fairy added, gritting her teeth despite her usual elegance.
zài dì shàng sàn luò zhe yī xiē hóng bù ， hái yǒu yī xiē bì huà zhī wù 。
在地上散落着一些红布，还有一些壁画之物。
Gold Hong Master did not say much. He dashed toward a corner where a solitary teleportation array stood, clearly used for connecting different layers.
zhòng rén de biǎo qíng yǒu xiē nán kàn le 。
众人的表情有些难看了。
"Will the other end of the teleportation array have been destroyed?" asked Filigree I Blue with concern.
“ yí ， nà lǐ yǒu yí gè gòng zhuō 。”
“咦，那里有一个供桌。”
"I'm unsure; if it's unidirectional, they can't destroy it. Let's hope for luck," Gold Hong Master said as he stepped onto the platform and cast a spell with his hands.
tīng le míng quán xiān zi de jīng hū ， zhòng rén lián máng xún shēng zhuǎn guò tóu lú ， zhǐ jiàn gòng zhuō jū rán zài yī shǎn píng fēng zhī hòu ， guài bù dé xiān qián bìng wèi fā xiàn bù tuǒ ， xiàn zài zì rán shuí yě bù yuàn yì cuò guò ” zhēng xiān kǒng hòu de fēi guò qù le 。
听了明泉仙子的惊呼，众人连忙循声转过头颅，只见供桌居然在一闪屏风之后，怪不得先前并未发现不妥，现在自然谁也不愿意错过”争先恐后的飞过去了。
A white light enveloped him, and then he disappeared from sight.
rán ér rù mén suǒ jiàn de jǐng xiàng ， què lái le gè tòu xīn liáng 。
然而入门所见的景象，却来了个透心凉。
Everyone was relieved that things hadn't gone to the worst extent yet. If the teleportation array were destroyed, they would be helpless, unable even to cry for help.
zhǐ jiàn gòng zhuō shàng ， yǒu sān gè dà xiāng zi ， měi gè zhǎng kuān gāo dōu gè yǒu sān chǐ ， róng jī hěn dà ， xiǎn rán néng gòu zhuāng xià bù shǎo dōng xī 。
只见供桌上，有三个大箱子，每个长宽高都各有三尺，容积很大，显然能够装下不少东西。
They didn't waste any time as the array could only accommodate one person at a time. One by one, they stepped on it. Lin Xuan was not idle; Mingquan Fairy was last.
rán ér xiāng zi yǐ jīng dǎ kāi ， xiǎn rán shì bèi shén me qiáng lì pò huài ， zhì yú lǐ miàn de dōng xī ” quán dōu bù yì ér fēi ， yǐ jīng bèi rén qǔ zǒu 。
然而箱子已经打开，显然是被什么强力破坏，至于里面的东西”全都不翼而飞，已经被人取走。
But the distance was short, and they arrived almost simultaneously.
suī rán zhè zhǒng jié guǒ ， zǎo jiù yǒu xīn lǐ zhǔn bèi ， dàn qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， wǔ rén hái shì liǎn rú sǐ huī 。
虽然这种结果，早就有心理准备，但亲眼目睹，五人还是脸如死灰。
The second layer was slightly smaller than the first. The entrance area was in disarray with remnants of broken array tools still scattered around.
“ ěr è ， jiū jìng shì nǎ ge hùn dàn jiā huo ， qǔ zǒu le běn dà yé de bǎo wù ， wǒ yào jiāng tā chōu hún liàn pò 。” jīn yì mù chì yù liè de shuō 。
“耳恶，究竟是哪个混蛋家伙，取走了本大爷的宝物，我要将他抽魂炼魄。”金义目赤欲裂的说。
"What...?" Mingquan Fairy's pupils narrowed. "This must be the Heavenly Wolf Three Talents Formation. Impossible! How could someone break such a formation? Could it be an old monster from the Cave Profound stage?"
“ bù cuò ， bù jiāng zhè ge hùn dàn miè le ， běn xiān zi yě nán xiāo xīn tóu zhī hèn 。”， míng quán xiān zi yě gù bù shàng fēng dù ， yǎo yá qiè chǐ de kāi kǒu le 。
“不错，不将这个混蛋灭了，本仙子也难消心头之恨。”，明泉仙子也顾不上风度，咬牙切齿的开口了。
"Oh, do you recognize this formation?" Lin Xuan's eyes flashed as he slowly opened his mouth.
jīn hóng dà shī què méi yǒu duō shuō ” shēn xíng yī shǎn ， bēn xiàng le mǒu gè jiǎo luò ” nà lǐ yǒu yí gè chuán sòng zhèn gū líng líng de chù lì zhe ， xiǎn rán shì gè céng lián jiē zhī yòng 。
金泓大师却没有多说”身形一闪，奔向了某个角落”那里有一个传送阵孤零零的矗立着，显然是各层连接之用。
"Yes, by chance, I've seen it before," Mingquan Fairy said with a hint of fear in her eyes. "Ordinary Separation and Union period cultivators would find it difficult to break."
“ duì fāng huì bú huì jiāng lìng wài yī tóu de chuán sòng zhèn huǐ le ？”， xiān mù yī lán yǒu xiē dān xīn de shuō 。
“对方会不会将另外一头的传送阵毁了？”，纤幕伊蓝有些担心的说。
"This isn't certain," Lin Xuan said. "Maybe the other party was skilled in formation techniques?"
“ bù qīng chǔ ， rú guǒ shì dān xiàng de ， duì fāng jiù méi fǎ huǐ qù ， kàn yùn qì 。” jīn hóng dà shī de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr lǐ ” suí hòu lǎo sēng háo bù yóu yù de zhàn le shàng qù ， shuāng shǒu yī wò ” yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū 。
“不清楚，如果是单向的，对方就没法毁去，看运气。”金泓大师的声音传入耳里”随后老僧毫不犹豫的站了上去，双手一握”一道法诀打出。
"Indeed, that's possible," the woman hesitated and replied.
bái máng yǒng rù ， jiāng lǎo hé shàng bāo guǒ ， rán hòu tā de shēn yǐng jiù bú jiàn le 。
白芒涌入，将老和尚包裹，然后他的身影就不见了。
"Hmph, what are you still talking about here? Why come for treasures if you're afraid of danger? If we stay here any longer, our enemies might escape."
zhòng rén dà xǐ ， hái hǎo shì qíng méi dào zuì huài de dì bù ， rú guǒ chuán sòng zhèn huǐ le ， tā men jiù zhǐ yǒu shù shǒu wú cè ” kū dōu méi yǒu dì fāng kū 。
众人大喜，还好事情没到最坏的地步，如果传送阵毁了，他们就只有束手无策”哭都没有地方哭。
Gold Yi's face showed a hint of cruelty. He roared loudly, his body enveloped in golden light as he rushed inside.
zhòng rén yě bù dān gē ， zhè chuán sòng zhèn zhǐ néng róng nà yī rén ér yǐ ， yí gè yí gè de zhàn shàng qù ， zhè cì lín xuān méi yǒu dài màn shén me ， míng quán xiān zi cái shì luò zài zuì hòu miàn le 。
众人也不耽搁，这传送阵只能容纳一人而已，一个一个的站上去，这次林轩没有怠慢什么，明泉仙子才是落在最后面了。
Of course, this guy was also shrewd; with the treasures and spiritual energy fully activated, he could counter any obstruction at any moment.
dàn jù lí tài duǎn ， qí shí yě jiù shì qián hòu jiǎo jiù dào le 。
但距离太短，其实也就是前后脚就到了。
The remaining four hesitated briefly before following him into the next grand hall, unwilling to abandon their treasures even against a formidable enemy.
dì èr céng bǐ dì yī céng shāo xiǎo yī xiē ， rù kǒu chù yī piàn láng jí ， hái cán liú zhe yī xiē bèi huǐ qù de pò zhèn qì jù 。
第二层比第一层稍小一些，入口处一片狼藉，还残留着一些被毁去的破阵器具。
Another empty grand hall greeted them. Some trash scattered on the ground indicated that the enemies had taken the treasures. But unlike the first layer, this one had a staircase leading to the third level.
“ zhè ……”， míng quán xiān zi tóng kǒng wēi suō ：“ tiān láng sān cái zhèn ” bù kě néng ， duì fāng jū rán néng jiāng zhè zhǒng zhèn fǎ pò chú ， nán dào shì dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù ？”，“ ó ， xiān zi rèn shí zhè zhǒng zhèn fǎ me ？” lín xuān yǎn zhōng yì sè shǎn guò ， huǎn huǎn de kāi 。 le 。
“这……”，明泉仙子瞳孔微缩：“天狼三才阵”不可能，对方居然能将这种阵法破除，难道是洞玄期老怪物？”，“哦，仙子认识这种阵法么？”林轩眼中异色闪过，缓缓的开。了。
Gold Yi roared again and charged forward with his eyes red. Just as he was about to rush in, Filigree I Blue's voice reached their ears: "Hey, what is this?"
“ ń ， jī yuán qiǎo hé ， céng jīng jiàn guò ” pǔ tōng de lí hé qī xiū shì ， shì hěn nán pò de 。” míng quán xiān zi rú cǐ zhè bān de shuō ， yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī wèi jù zhī sè 。
“嗯，机缘巧合，曾经见过”普通的离合期修士，是很难破的。”明泉仙子如此这般的说，眼中闪过一丝畏惧之色。
Everyone turned to see a large hole on the wall, obviously created by some external force.
“ zhè yě bù yí dìng ” yě xǔ duì fāng běn shēn jiù shàn cháng zhèn fǎ zhī shù ne ？”，“ ń ， zhè dào yǒu kě néng 。” cǐ nǚ yí zhèng ” huǎn huǎn de shuō 。
“这也不一定”也许对方本身就擅长阵法之术呢？”，“嗯，这倒有可能。”此女一怔”缓缓的说。
Mingquan Fairy raised her eyebrows and shot out a transparent sword that looked carved from ice.
“ hēng ， zài zhè lǐ luó suo shén me ， tān shēng pà sǐ hé bì lái xún bǎo wù ” zài zài zhè lǐ dān gē ， dí rén dōu táo zǒu le 。”
“哼，在这里罗嗦什么，贪生怕死何必来寻宝物”再在这里耽搁，敌人都逃走了。”
It struck the wall with a loud tearing sound as several runes blocked it.
jīn yì liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī bào nüè zhī sè ” yī shēng dà hē ， hún shēn jīn máng dà qǐ ， bāo guǒ zhe tā de shēn tǐ ， chōng le jìn qù 。
金义脸上闪过一丝暴虐之色”一声大喝，浑身金芒大起，包裹着他的身体，冲了进去。
In other words, the walls around had restrictions, and they were quite powerful.
dāng rán ， zhè jiā huo yě shì cū zhōng yǒu xì ， bǎo wù yǔ líng lì wán quán kāi qǐ ， shāo wēi yù jiàn zǔ gé ， suí shí dōu kě yǐ fǎn jī 。
当然，这家伙也是粗中有细，宝物与灵力完全开启，稍微遇见阻隔，随时都可以反击。
Moreover, the walls themselves were very solid. How did the other party break through?
shèng xià de sì rén lüè yī chí yí ， yě gēn le jìn qù ， jiù suàn miàn duì qiáng dí ， bǎo wù tā men yě jué bù yuàn yì fàng qì 。
剩下的四人略一迟疑，也跟了进去，就算面对强敌，宝物他们也绝不愿意放弃。
Could it be an old monster from the Cave Profound stage?
yòu yí gè dà diàn yìng rù yǎn lián ， yī jiù shì kōng kōng dàng dàng ， dì shàng sàn luò zhe yī xiē lā jī ， xiǎn rán bǎo wù luò zài le dí rén de shǒu lǐ ， rán ér wú yī céng bù tóng de shì ， dì èr céng yǒu yí gè jiē tī ， tōng wǎng dì sān céng de yàng zi 。
又一个大殿映入眼帘，依旧是空空荡荡，地上散落着一些垃圾，显然宝物落在了敌人的手里，然而无一层不同的是，第二层有一个阶梯，通往第三层的样子。
Thinking of this possibility made everyone uneasy.
jīn yì yī shēng dà hē ” yǎn dōu hóng le ， zhèng yào chōng shàng qù ， jiù zài cǐ kè ， xiān mù yī lán de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ yí ， zhè shì shén me ？”， zhòng rén zhuǎn guò tóu ， zhǐ jiàn yuǎn chù de qiáng bì shàng chū xiàn le yí gè dà dòng ， xiǎn rán shì bèi duì fāng yòng wài lì qiáng xíng dǎ tōng 。
金义一声大喝”眼都红了，正要冲上去，就在此刻，纤幕伊蓝的声音传入耳朵：“咦，这是什么？”，众人转过头，只见远处的墙壁上出现了一个大洞，显然是被对方用外力强行打通。
Should they chase after them?
míng quán xiān zi xiù méi wēi tiāo ， yī bǐng tòu míng de xiān jiàn fēi shè ér chū ， kàn shàng qù jiù xiàng shì yòng bīng diāo kè ér chéng de 。
明泉仙子秀眉微挑，一柄透明的仙剑飞射而出，看上去就像是用冰雕刻而成的。
Even Gold Yi hesitated; he didn't believe he could handle a Cave Profound period cultivator.
hěn hěn de zhuàng shàng qiáng bì ， cī lā shēng dà qǐ ， jǐ gè fú wén dǎng zhù le gōng jī 。
狠狠的撞上墙壁，刺啦声大起，几个符文挡住了攻击。
But to give up on their treasures was too disappointing.
yě jiù shì shuō ” sì zhōu de qiáng bì dōu yǒu jìn zhì ， ér qiě pǒ wèi qiáng dà de yàng zi 。
也就是说”四周的墙壁都有禁制，而且颇为强大的样子。
They had come so far, but with such little gain. The loss of the treasures without any clear reason felt like a great injustice.
ér qiě qiáng bì běn shēn yě shí fēn jiān shí ” duì fāng jiū jìng zěn yàng pò qù 。
而且墙壁本身也十分坚实”对方究竟怎样破去。
"Fellow Master, what do you think we should do? Let's make a decision."
nán dào zhēn shì dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ？
难道真是洞玄期修仙者？
At least outwardly, Gold Hong Master was the most powerful and as the initiator, his words carried weight.
yī xiǎng dào zhè ge cāi cè ， zhòng rén yě yǒu xiē dǎ chù 。
一想到这个猜测，众人也有些打怵。
"This..." The monk scratched his head, indecisive. Then Lin Xuan's voice reached their ears: "Fellow Daoists, let's take a risk and explore the third level instead?"
yào bù yào qù zhuī ne ？
要不要去追呢？
"The third level?"
lián jīn yì yě yǎn qí xī gǔ ， tā kě bù rèn wéi ， zì jǐ kě yǐ duì fù dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù 。
连金义也偃旗息鼓，他可不认为，自己可以对付洞玄期老怪物。
"Yes, they must have broken through from here; they haven't had time to reach the third level yet," Lin Xuan said confidently.
"I'll give it a try," said the balding old man as he slowly approached, his face serious. He didn't attack rashly but instead reached out and gently tapped on the stone door.
He leaned in close to listen intently.
Then he raised his head to gaze at the sky as if pondering some difficult problem. His expression was extremely strange.
The Daoist elder did not urge him further; though Old Master Yu had advanced to the Cave Profound stage, a thousand years behind Lin Xuan, but his cultivation techniques were unique and his knowledge extensive. Thus, this mission would naturally be led by him.
After about a cup of tea's time, the balding old man suddenly lowered his head, using two fingers to tap repeatedly on his forehead as if truly facing a difficult problem.
Suddenly, he widened his eyes. A strange color flashed in his pupils, and then one after another, he cast out spells with both hands moving like butterflies.
Those spells were of various colors, and the stone door suddenly emitted brilliant white light, accompanied by a clear ringing sound.
"This..." The Daoist elder was somewhat surprised. But Old Master Gold said with a swift turn of his head: "My guess is indeed correct; this must be the Door to Another Space."
"What on earth is the Door to Another Space?"
"It's no wonder Fellow Daoist Qiu hasn't heard about it. I only came across a description in an ancient text by chance, but you should be familiar with the concept of a spatial domain."
"Relax," said Old Master Gold arrogantly. "Since I can recognize it, there will surely be a way to break through." He added confidently, "But it'll take some effort."
"So, Fellow Brother Yu, this is your task."
The Daoist elder was delighted; the Door to Another Space was no trivial matter and was usually used to store great secrets. This time, they might catch several of the culprits and perhaps even find unexpected treasures.
Misfortune may be an actual blessing in disguise, and a blessing may turn out to be a misfortune. The ancients were not deceiving us; luck is indeed hard to predict.
"Ha ha, no need for thanks. I'll still need your help later."
"No problem," said Fellow Daoist Qiu. "If there's anything I can do, just let me know."
With the promise from his counterpart, Old Master Gold did not say more and waved his sleeves. Several things shot out—swords, spears, and other powerful treasures. Besides these, there were also several crystal stones and some dark-looking thunder beads.
The Daoist elder's eyes flickered with suspicion but he did not interrupt at this crucial moment.
Meanwhile, inside the spatial domain.
BOOM!
A loud noise entered their ears as the blue-red protective barrier finally vanished.
However, everyone's faces were grim. The sounds in the grand hall had stopped nearly half an hour ago, meaning that the other party had already broken through the restrictions earlier and might have taken most of the treasures.
Could it be too late to salvage anything?
They would not give up as long as there was a chance to solve the problem here.
Gold Yi led the charge into the grand hall first. The others, though hesitant due to potential traps, still entered one by one when they thought about the treasures.
Lin Xuan deliberately stayed at the back.
Once inside the door, the scene in front of them was clear.
This grand hall was even larger than expected—thousand feet wide and long—but it was unusually empty. Only a few tall columns stood there, with nothing else.
No... There were still things.
Some red cloths and paintings scattered on the ground.
Everyone's expressions turned ugly.
"Hey, there's an altar over there."
Following Mingquan Fairy's exclamation, everyone turned to see that the altar was behind a flickering screen. That explained why they hadn't noticed it earlier. Now, no one wanted to miss out; they rushed forward eagerly.
However, what they saw upon entering was disappointing.
On the altar were three large chests, each measuring three feet in length, width, and height—clearly capable of holding many items.
But the chests had already been opened, obviously destroyed by some powerful force. The contents inside were all gone, taken away by someone.
Although they had expected this result, the five of them still looked pale as death when they saw it with their own eyes.
"Damn, which bastard took my treasures? I'll rip his soul and spirit out," Gold Yi said with bloodshot eyes.
"Not until I destroy that bastard will I be able to forget my anger," Mingquan Fairy added, gritting her teeth despite her usual elegance.
Gold Hong Master did not say much. He dashed toward a corner where a solitary teleportation array stood, clearly used for connecting different layers.
"Will the other end of the teleportation array have been destroyed?" asked Filigree I Blue with concern.
"I'm unsure; if it's unidirectional, they can't destroy it. Let's hope for luck," Gold Hong Master said as he stepped onto the platform and cast a spell with his hands.
A white light enveloped him, and then he disappeared from sight.
Everyone was relieved that things hadn't gone to the worst extent yet. If the teleportation array were destroyed, they would be helpless, unable even to cry for help.
They didn't waste any time as the array could only accommodate one person at a time. One by one, they stepped on it. Lin Xuan was not idle; Mingquan Fairy was last.
But the distance was short, and they arrived almost simultaneously.
The second layer was slightly smaller than the first. The entrance area was in disarray with remnants of broken array tools still scattered around.
"What...?" Mingquan Fairy's pupils narrowed. "This must be the Heavenly Wolf Three Talents Formation. Impossible! How could someone break such a formation? Could it be an old monster from the Cave Profound stage?"
"Oh, do you recognize this formation?" Lin Xuan's eyes flashed as he slowly opened his mouth.
"Yes, by chance, I've seen it before," Mingquan Fairy said with a hint of fear in her eyes. "Ordinary Separation and Union period cultivators would find it difficult to break."
"This isn't certain," Lin Xuan said. "Maybe the other party was skilled in formation techniques?"
"Indeed, that's possible," the woman hesitated and replied.
"Hmph, what are you still talking about here? Why come for treasures if you're afraid of danger? If we stay here any longer, our enemies might escape."
Gold Yi's face showed a hint of cruelty. He roared loudly, his body enveloped in golden light as he rushed inside.
Of course, this guy was also shrewd; with the treasures and spiritual energy fully activated, he could counter any obstruction at any moment.
The remaining four hesitated briefly before following him into the next grand hall, unwilling to abandon their treasures even against a formidable enemy.
Another empty grand hall greeted them. Some trash scattered on the ground indicated that the enemies had taken the treasures. But unlike the first layer, this one had a staircase leading to the third level.
Gold Yi roared again and charged forward with his eyes red. Just as he was about to rush in, Filigree I Blue's voice reached their ears: "Hey, what is this?"
Everyone turned to see a large hole on the wall, obviously created by some external force.
Mingquan Fairy raised her eyebrows and shot out a transparent sword that looked carved from ice.
It struck the wall with a loud tearing sound as several runes blocked it.
In other words, the walls around had restrictions, and they were quite powerful.
Moreover, the walls themselves were very solid. How did the other party break through?
Could it be an old monster from the Cave Profound stage?
