lín xuān yī biān shuō zhe ， yī biān chōng hú lú yì diǎn zhǐ ， gèng duō de tiān léi shā fēng yōng chū lái ， rú hǎi cháo nù tāo yì bān ， cháo zhe duì fāng kuáng juǎn 。
林轩一边说着，一边冲葫芦一点指，更多的天雷沙蜂拥出来，如海潮怒涛一般，朝着对方狂卷。
Lin Xuan spoke as he pointed at the gourd, sending more heavenly thunder bees surging out. They swarmed like a tidal wave towards his opponent.
“ nǐ …… bú yào qī rén tài shèn le ， zhēn jiāng wǒ xiōng dì jǐ gè ， bī dào zǒu tóu wú lù de dì bù ， yú sǐ wǎng pò ， duì nǐ lái shuō ， tóng yàng méi yǒu shén me hǎo chù 。”
“你……不要欺人太甚了，真将我兄弟几个，逼到走投无路的地步，鱼死网破，对你来说，同样没有什么好处。”
"You... don't dare to bully people too much! Truly forcing my brothers into a corner where we have no choice but to fight to the death. For you, that's not beneficial either."
jiàn qiú ráo méi yǒu yòng tú ， lǎo hé shàng yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī zhēng níng zhī sè ， è hěn hěn de shuō 。
见求饶没有用途，老和尚眼中闪过一丝狰狞之色，恶狠狠的说。
Seeing that pleading was futile, the old monk's eyes flashed with a sinister glint as he said viciously, "Oh? Then I must try it out."
“ ó ， nà lín mǒu gèng yào shì shì le 。”
“哦，那林某更要试试了。”
Lin Xuan wasn't new to this world; having experienced countless storms and bloodshed over six hundred years, such threats couldn't scare him.
lín xuān yòu fēi chū chū máo lú ， liù bǎi nián lái jīng lì xīng fēng xuè yǔ wú shù ， zhè zhǒng sè lì nèi rěn de huà yǔ zěn me kě néng jiāng tā xià zhù 。
林轩又非初出茅庐，六百年来经历腥风血雨无数，这种色厉内荏的话语怎么可能将他吓住。
With a wave of his sleeve, adecision-making formula or诀窍 (trick/method) flew from his fingertips. The heavenly thunder bees converged in the middle, transforming into a tiger with wings on its back that appeared before Lin Xuan's eyes.
xiù páo yī fú ， yī dào jué cóng zhǐ jiān fēi shè ér chū ， nà xiē tiān léi shā wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù ， yī bèi shēng shuāng chì de lǎo hǔ chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
袖袍一拂，一道诀从指尖飞射而出，那些天雷沙往中间一聚，一背生双翅的老虎出现在了视线里。
The tiger was fierce and vicious as it lunged at the monk.
zhēng níng xiōng è ， hěn hěn de xiàng hé shàng pū guò qù le 。
狰狞凶恶，狠狠的像和尚扑过去了。
"Southwestern Buddha!"
“ ē mí tuó fó ！”
“阿弥陀佛！”
The old monk recited a Buddhist mantra, but to everyone's surprise, he turned around and ran. He wasn't stupid; clearly, he couldn't defeat him, so staying here would only mean certain death!
lǎo hé shàng yī shēng fó hào ， rán ér chū hū yù liào de ， què shì niǔ tóu jiù pǎo ， tā yòu bù shǎ ， míng xiǎn dǎ bù guò , liú zài zhè lǐ qǐ bù shì zhǎo sǐ a ！
老和尚一声佛号，然而出乎预料的，却是扭头就跑，他又不傻，明显打不过,留在这里岂不是找死啊！
As they say, if you can keep your mountain standing, you won't fear losing firewood. A virtuous man fears death more than a commoner.
sú huà shuō ， liú dé qīng shān zài ， bù pà méi chái shāo ， jūn zǐ bào chóu ， shí nián bù wǎn 。
俗话说，留得青山在，不怕没柴烧，君子报仇，十年不晚。
Lin Xuan sneered as he raised his right hand and punched out. Unlike the old monk's angry expression, Lin Xuan's punch was light, almost like it didn't carry any force at all.
rán ér tā kuài , lín xuān de dòng zuò ， què gèng wéi xùn sù ， shēn xíng yī shǎn ， yǐ cóng yuán dì xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
然而他快,林轩的动作，却更为迅速，身形一闪，已从原地消失不见。
The two punches collided mid-air with no sound, but in the next moment, a series of cracking sounds echoed.
bú yòng shuō ， zhèng shì jiǔ tiān wēi bù ， jǐ gè zhuǎn zhé ， jiù yǐ zhuī dào duì fāng de shēn pīn le 。
不用说，正是九天微步，几个转折，就已追到对方的身拼了。
It was the hidden power from Lin Xuan's punch that shattered his opponent's bones completely.
“ nǐ ——,
“你——,
Such injuries would render even a cultivator's body nearly useless. The old monk's head glowed white as an inch-high core floated out.
lǎo sēng dà jīng shī sè ， dàn suí hòu jiàn lín xuān dà tà bù de lái dào shēn qián sān chǐ zhī chù ， yòu bù yóu de zhuǎn nù wèi xǐ le 。
老僧大惊失色，但随后见林轩大踏步的来到身前三尺之处，又不由得转怒为喜了。
With fear on his face and green light surrounding him, he tried to escape, but Lin Xuan had anticipated this and stepped forward. His body rippled, moving faster than teleportation.
tiān zuò niè ， yóu kě huó ， zì zuò niè ， kě jiù bú yào guài zì jǐ le 。
天作孽，犹可活，自作孽，可就不要怪自己了。
Lin Xuan reached out with his right hand, grabbing the old monk like a godly aid. The old monk's pitiful cries rang in Lin Xuan's ears as he didn't bother to talk. Flames appeared in his hand, reducing the core to nothingness.
gē bēng gē bēng de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhè shēn cái ǎi xiǎo de lǎo sēng tǐ xíng tū rán bào zhǎng qǐ lái le 。
咯嘣咯嘣的爆裂声传入耳朵，这身材矮小的老僧体型突然暴涨起来了。
The entire process seemed complex but took only a few breaths. The other cultivators were so frightened that they trembled, not believing this demon could be so powerful and easily destroy their leader.
yǔ gāng gāng xiāng bǐ ， gāo le yí gè tóu yǒu yú ， jī ròu yě biàn dé fā dá wú bǐ 。
与刚刚相比，高了一个头有余，肌肉也变得发达无比。
"Please... Senior, spare my life."
liàn tǐ shù ， lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， suí hòu què yòu yǎ rán shī xiào qǐ lái le 。
炼体术，林轩瞳孔微缩，随后却又哑然失笑起来了。
"We beg you to let us serve as slaves in exchange for our freedom."
zhè hé shàng hái zhēn shì yǒu gòu dǎo méi de ， píng xīn lái shuō ， tā shí lì bù cuò ， suī shì sàn xiū ， dàn zài tóng jìng jiè de xiū xiān zhě zhōng ， yě suàn zǒu chū lèi bá cuì le 。
这和尚还真是有够倒霉的，平心来说，他实力不错，虽是散修，但在同境界的修仙者中，也算走出类拔萃了。
Compared to ordinary people, cultivators feared death even more since they sought immortality. However, Lin Xuan showed no mercy.
hán yán ， liàn tǐ shù , dōu suàn shì yǒu dú dào zhī chù ， kě piān piān dǎo méi de yù shàng zì jǐ ， měi yī xiàng shén tōng ， dōu qià hǎo bèi zì jǐ xiāng kè 。
寒炎，炼体术,都算是有独到之处，可偏偏倒霉的遇上自己，每一项神通，都恰好被自己相克。
With a wave of his sleeve, dozens of sword lights emerged and decimated the remaining cultivators without sparing their cores.
liàn tǐ me ， jiù suàn shì tóng jiē yāo zú ， yǔ zì jǐ xiāng bǐ ， yě tóng yàng zhǐ yǒu yǐn hèn yī tú ， zhè liǎng bǎi nián de qí lín guǒ ， tā bìng fēi bái bái fú yòng de 。
炼体么，就算是同阶妖族，与自己相比，也同样只有饮恨一途，这两百年的麒麟果，他并非白白服用的。
There was no room for any survivors.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān tǐ è nèi de líng lì quán biàn le ， yī gǔ yāo qì chōng tiān ér qǐ ， dāng rán ， yǔ yāo zú xiāng bǐ ， míng xiǎn yòu shì yǒu qū bié dì 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩体垩内的灵力全变了，一股妖气冲天而起，当然，与妖族相比，明显又是有区别地。
Lin Xuan then collected their storage bags and transformed into a streak of light, landing at the center of the island. Closing his eyes, he released his divine sense once more.
“ xiū yāo zhě ， bù kě néng ， nǐ gāng gāng shī zhǎn de , míng xiǎn shì dào jiā mì shù 。”
“修妖者，不可能，你刚刚施展的,明显是道家秘术。”
After a cup of tea's time, Lin Xuan opened his eyes with satisfaction. There were no hidden cultivators on this island, nor any traces of high-level beasts within a thousand miles. This place was perfect for cultivation.
lǎo hé shàng yī shēng jīng hū ， jī hū yǐ wéi zì jǐ kàn cuò ， bù guò shì qíng dào le zhè yī bù ， huǐ hèn yě wǎn le ， zhǐ néng yìng zhe tóu pí , yī quán jī dǎ chū qù 。
老和尚一声惊呼，几乎以为自己看错，不过事情到了这一步，悔恨也晚了，只能硬着头皮,一拳击打出去。
He then moved to the western mountain peak where the other cultivators' caves were located. He didn't need to create new ones here.
pī lǐ pā lā de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhè yī quán , nǎi shì tā hún shēn de líng lì suǒ jù ， zhè lǎo hé shàng yě suàn shì guǒ gǎn hěn lì ， míng zhī bù dí ， què gū zhù yí zhì 。
噼里啪啦的爆裂声传入耳朵，这一拳,乃是他浑身的灵力所聚，这老和尚也算是果敢狠厉，明知不敌，却孤注一掷。
However, he decided to set some restrictions around the island. Lin Xuan flipped his wrist and summoned several array flags in his palm.
“ zhǎo sǐ ！”
“找死！”
With a few hand gestures, he set up the array as usual.
lín xuān lěng xiào yī shēng ， yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yě shì yī quán jī dǎ guò qù ， bù guò yǔ lǎo hé shàng chuī hú zi dèng yǎn bù tóng ， lín xuān zhè yī jī ， qīng piāo piāo de ， fǎng fú jiù méi yǒu shǐ lì 。
林轩冷笑一声，右手抬起，也是一拳击打过去，不过与老和尚吹胡子瞪眼不同，林轩这一击，轻飘飘的，仿佛就没有使力。
"Quick!"
liǎng quán zài bàn kōng zhōng zhuàng jī ， jū rán yì diǎn shēng xī yě wú ， rán ér xià yī kè ， què yǒu chǎo dòu zi bān de mì jí bào liè shēng chuán chū 。
两拳在半空中撞击，居然一点声息也无，然而下一刻，却有炒豆子般的密集爆裂声传出。
Lin Xuan pointed at the island, causing white mist to rise, obscuring it entirely. This would make him much safer.
què shì zhè yī quán de àn jìn chuán dǎo guò qù ， jiāng duì shǒu de gǔ gé ， jī hū quán bù dǎ suì le 。
却是这一拳的暗劲传导过去，将对手的骨骼，几乎全部打碎了。
He then flew to a cave halfway down the mountain, choosing the most spacious and comfortable one. It was fully equipped with training rooms, living areas, even a medicinal garden. This saved him a lot of trouble.
zhè yàng de shāng ， jí biàn shì xiū xiān zhě ， ròu shēn yě jiē jìn bào fèi le ， zhǐ jiàn lǎo hé shàng de tóu dǐng bái guāng shǎn shuò , yí gè cùn xǔ gāo de yuán yīng fú xiàn ér chū 。
这样的伤，即便是修仙者，肉身也接近报废了，只见老和尚的头顶白光闪烁,一个寸许高的元婴浮现而出。
Lin Xuan didn't rush into cultivation; he took several days off before exploring the entire island thoroughly. Only after that did he enter his training room.
mǎn liǎn wèi jù ， shēn shàng qīng máng yì qǐ ， jiù xiǎng yào táo dùn chū qù ， rán ér lín xuān zǎo yǒu yù liào dì ， xiàng qián kuà chū yī bù , shēn shàng bō wén dàng qǐ ， sù dù gèng shèng shùn yí 。
满脸畏惧，身上青芒一起，就想要逃遁出去，然而林轩早有预料地，向前跨出一步,身上波纹荡起，速度更胜瞬移。
He flipped his left hand, and three-colored flames appeared. It was Refined Spirit Heaven Fire, but trapped within were miniature versions of a dragon. This was the old monk's Frost Flame technique.
yòu shǒu shēn chū ， rú yǒu shén zhù ， fǎng fú kuà yuè le kōng jiān shì de ， yī bǎ jiāng duì fāng gěi zhuā zhù 。
右手伸出，如有神助，仿佛跨越了空间似的，一把将对方给抓住。
While its power couldn't match Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, their attributes were similar. In other words, this fire could greatly enhance Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire’s strength.
yī yī yā yā de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yuán yīng xiǎng yào qiú ráo shì ruò ， dàn lín xuān yǐ lǎn de yǔ tā luō suo ， shǒu zhōng huǒ yàn yì qǐ ， yuán yīng jiù huà wèi le xū wú 。
依依呀呀的声音传入耳朵，元婴想要求饶示弱，但林轩已懒得与他啰嗦，手中火焰一起，元婴就化为了虚无。
He would refine it first.
zhěng gè guò chéng shuō qǐ lái fán fù ， qí shí bù guò jǐ xī de fū ， qí yú jǐ míng xiū shì yǐ xià dé hún shēn fā dǒu ， méi xiǎng dào zhè shà xīng jìng lì hài dào rú cǐ dì bù ， lián dà gē yě bèi tā qīng yì miè le 。
整个过程说起来繁复，其实不过几息的夫，其余几名修士已吓得浑身发抖，没想到这煞星竟厉害到如此地步，连大哥也被他轻易灭了。
Lin Xuan crossed his hands and covered his palm with Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire before closing his eyes...
“ qián …… qián bèi ráo mìng 。”
“前……前辈饶命。”
Three months passed like a flash. The cave remained silent as Lin Xuan opened his eyes in the training room, showing signs of joy. After much effort, he finally refined the Frost Flame.
“ wǒ jǐ rén yuàn wèi nú wèi pū ， zhǐ qiú qián bèi fàng wǒ děng yī tiáo shēng lù 。”
“我几人愿为奴为仆，只求前辈放我等一条生路。”
It was slightly more challenging than expected, but Lin Xuan was pleased because Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire's increased power far exceeded his expectations.
yǔ fán rén xiāng bǐ ， xiū xiān zhě qí shí hái gèng pà sǐ yī xiē ， bì jìng tà shàng xiān dào zhī lù ， mù dì jiù shì zhuī qiú shòu yuán gèng duō ， rán ér lín xuān shì bú huì xīn ruǎn de 。
与凡人相比，修仙者其实还更怕死一些，毕竟踏上仙道之路，目的就是追求寿元更多，然而林轩是不会心软的。
He raised his hand, and Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire appeared, its blue color now even more striking.
xiù páo yī fú ， shù shí dào jiàn guāng yú yóu ér chū ， zhè yī cì bù zài liú shǒu ， jiāng jǐ míng dào shà de xiū shì zhǎn dé qī líng bā luò ， lián yuán yīng yě bù fàng guò 。
袖袍一拂，数十道剑光鱼游而出，这一次不再留手，将几名倒霎的修士斩得七零八落，连元婴也不放过。
"Quick!"
yào me bù zuò , yào me sī háo hòu huàn dōu bù néng liú xià lái de 。
要么不做,要么丝毫后患都不能留下来的。
Lin Xuan pointed at the flames. They turned into a three-colored crystal, then transformed entirely into cold colors as a one-foot-long dragon emerged and lunged towards an empty space.
rán hòu lín xuān jiāng duì fāng de chǔ wù dài yī shōu ， jiù huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng ， lái dào le dǎo yǔ de zhèng zhōng ， bì shàng shuāng mù ， zài yí cì jiāng shén shí fàng chū 。
然后林轩将对方的储物袋一收，就化为一道惊虹，来到了岛屿的正中，闭上双目，再一次将神识放出。
Bluish light flickered, revealing something unbelievable.
yī zhǎn chá de fū yǐ hòu ， lín xuān tái qǐ le tóu 。
一盏茶的夫以后，林轩抬起了头。
The space distorted and seemed to shatter under the intense cold.
liǎn shàng lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè ， zhè dǎo yǔ shàng méi yǒu yǐn nì bù chū de xiū xiān zhě ， fāng yuán qiān lǐ de hǎi yù ， yě méi yǒu fā xiàn gāo jiē yāo shòu de zōng jì ， zhè lǐ zhèng shì yī shì hé zì jǐ xiū liàn de bǎo dì 。
脸上露出满意之色，这岛屿上没有隐匿不出的修仙者，方圆千里的海域，也没有发现高阶妖兽的踪迹，这里正是一适合自己修炼的宝地。
"This..." Lin Xuan was shocked. This time, it truly was a stroke of luck. Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire not only increased in power but also underwent a transformation.
rán hòu shēn xíng yī huǎng ， lái dào le dǎo yǔ xī cè de shān fēng zhī shàng ， zhè lǐ jiù shì nà jǐ míng sàn xiū de dòng fǔ ， zì jǐ dào bù yòng chóng xīn kāi pì le 。
然后身形一晃，来到了岛屿西侧的山峰之上，这里就是那几名散修的洞府，自己倒不用重新开辟了。
Spatial techniques!
bù guò zài cǐ dǎo fù jìn ， jìn zhì hái shì yào bù xià yī xiē ， lín xuān shǒu wàn fān zhuǎn ， zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng yǐ chū xiàn le yī dié zhèn qí 。
不过在此岛附近，禁制还是要布下一些，林轩手腕翻转，掌心之中已出现了一叠阵旗。
When the cold reached its peak, space began to crack.
jǐ dào jué dǎ chū ， jiù shú mén shú lù de jiāng cǐ zhèn bù xià le 。
几道诀打出，就熟门熟路的将此阵布下了。
Although the range was small and the shattered space could quickly recover due to natural laws, this power was astonishing.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
Lin Xuan believed that even an old demon of the Profound Realm would be unable to withstand such fire.
lín xuān yī zhǐ diǎn qù ， bái méng méng de wù qì shēng qǐ ， zhē dǎng zhù le zhěng gè dǎo yǔ ， lín xuān mù guāng sǎo guò ， rú cǐ yī lái jiù huì ān quán shàng xǔ duō 。
林轩一指点去，白蒙蒙的雾气升起，遮挡住了整个岛屿，林轩目光扫过，如此一来就会安全上许多。
In fact, it surpassed even divine treasures, becoming his greatest weapon.
rán hòu tā cái fēi xiàng bàn shān yāo de dòng fǔ ， tiāo xuǎn le zuì kuān chǎng shū shì de yī zuò ， lǐ miàn dǎo shì yī yīng jù quán ， liàn fáng ， kè tīng bù shuō ， lián yào yuán dōu shì yǒu de 。 rú cǐ yī lái dǎo shì shěng què le zì jǐ bù shǎo fū 。
然后他才飞向半山腰的洞府，挑选了最宽敞舒适的一座，里面倒是一应俱全，练房，客厅不说，连药园都是有的。如此一来倒是省却了自己不少夫。
This unexpected joy, Lin Xuan played with the technique for a while before storing it away.
lín xuān dào yě bù máng zhe xiū liàn ， xiān hǎo hǎo de xiū dài le jǐ tiān ， shèn zhì jiāng zhěng gè dǎo yǔ dōu guàng le yí gè biàn ， rán hòu cái lái dào liàn fáng lǐ miàn 。
林轩倒也不忙着修炼，先好好的休怠了几天，甚至将整个岛屿都逛了一个遍，然后才来到练房里面。
He then took out another jade bottle and opened its lid. He poured out several snow-white pills inside.
zuǒ shǒu fān zhuǎn ， yī tuán sān sè huǒ yàn fú xiàn chū lái 。 rǎn líng tiān huǒ ， bù guò lǐ miàn ， què kùn zhe yī tiáo mí nǐ bǎn de jiāo lóng 。 bú yòng shuō ， zhè shì nà lǎo sēng suǒ xiū liàn de hán yán shén tōng 。
左手翻转，一团三色火焰浮现出来。冉灵天火，不过里面，却困着一条迷你版的蛟龙。不用说，这是那老僧所修炼的寒炎神通。
Spirit Jade Pills!
suī rán lùn wēi lì ， yuǎn yuǎn bù zú yǐ yǔ huàn líng tiān huǒ xiāng bǐ , dàn shǔ xìng què shì xiāng tóng ， huàn jù huà shuō ， duì huàn líng tiān huǒ ， cǐ fú yàn nǎi shì dà bǔ ， néng gòu zēng jiā wēi lì bù shǎo de 。
虽然论威力，远远不足以与幻灵天火相比,但属性却是相同，换句话说，对幻灵天火，此佛焰乃是大补，能够增加威力不少的。
Lin Xuan took one pill and swallowed it, savoring the fragrance as he began to refine its medicinal power.
xiān liàn huà le zài shuō 。
先炼化了再说。
While his second core and demon nucleus were set aside for now, Lin Xuan's main core was trapped in the Separation Realm stage for a long time. He needed to increase his strength first before attempting to break through to the mid-Separation Realm.
nǎo hǎi zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， lín xuān shuāng shǒu fǎn wò ， jiāng huàn líng tiān huǒ fù gài zài zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng ， rán hòu bì shàng shuāng mù ……
脑海中如此想着，林轩双手反握，将幻灵天火覆盖在掌心之中，然后闭上双目……
High-level cultivators abounded; having strength gave him confidence.
shí guāng rú bái jū guò xì ， zhuǎn shùn jiān yǐ shì sān yuè yǒu yú ， zhěng gè dòng fǔ yì zhí ān jìng wú bǐ ， zhè tiān liàn fáng lǐ ， lín xuān xú xú zhēng kāi le shuāng mù ， liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī jīng xǐ ， fèi le bù shǎo gōng fu ， zhōng yú jiāng nà hán yàn liàn huà diào le 。
时光如白驹过隙，转瞬间已是三月有余，整个洞府一直安静无比，这天练房里，林轩徐徐睁开了双目，脸上闪过一丝惊喜，费了不少工夫，终于将那寒焰炼化掉了。
Thus, he sealed off his cave and entered rigorous cultivation.
bǐ zì jǐ yuán xiān de yù jì ， yào shāo shāo kùn nán yī xiē ， dàn lín xuān bù jīng fǎn xǐ ， yīn wèi huàn líng tiān huǒ yīn cǐ suǒ zēng jiā de wēi lì ， yě tóng yàng yuǎn yuǎn chāo guò le zì jǐ de yù jì 。
比自己原先的预计，要稍稍困难一些，但林轩不惊反喜，因为幻灵天火因此所增加的威力，也同样远远超过了自己的预计。
He didn't aim too high; Lin Xuan started with Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique again. It was a true spirit technique that could unleash formidable power.
tái qǐ shǒu lái ， huàn líng tiān huǒ fú xiàn ér chū ， biǎo miàn suǒ fú xiàn de lán sè ， bǐ yǐ qián gèng jiā de cì mù 。
抬起手来，幻灵天火浮现而出，表面所浮现的蓝色，比以前更加的刺目。
Even without the subsequent techniques, what he had was enough to reach the peak of mid-Separation Realm.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
In addition to taking medicine and meditating to increase his strength, Lin Xuan also consumed phoenix fruit daily while diligently practicing secret techniques.
lín xuān yī zhǐ diǎn qù ， zhěng gè huǒ yàn sān sè liú lí ， suí hòu quán bù huà wèi le hán sè ， yī tóu chǐ xǔ zhǎng de jiāo lóng fú xiàn ér chū ， wǎng qián miàn mǒu kōng wú yì rén zhī chù yī pū 。
林轩一指点去，整个火焰三色琉璃，随后全部化为了寒色，一头尺许长的蛟龙浮现而出，往前面某空无一人之处一扑。
Especially the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye and Heavenly Vision, which played a significant role during his search for treasures at Dan Yue Sect.
lán guāng shǎn shuò ， bù kě sī yì de yí mù chū xiàn le 。
蓝光闪烁，不可思议的一幕出现了。
Lin Xuan practiced tirelessly. One day after completing Heavenly Vision, he wanted to see the results. Golden light flickered on his eyelids as colorful crystal appeared in his eyes. He had always used both techniques simultaneously without any negative effects, but today something unexpected happened.
zhěng gè kōng jiān yī zhèn niǔ qū ， bèi hán qì suǒ sī chě ， rán hòu fǎng fú suì liè diào le 。
整个空间一阵扭曲，被寒气所撕扯，然后仿佛碎裂掉了。
Without warning, Lin Xuan felt a sharp pain in his head and suddenly couldn't see anything.
“ zhè ……” rú cǐ jié guǒ ， lián lín xuān dōu dà jīng shī sè ， zhè yī cì hái zhēn shì jī yuán qiǎo hé ， huàn líng tiān huǒ bù zhǐ shì zēng qiáng wēi lì ， jiǎn zhí shì tuō tāi huàn gǔ ， tuì biàn yī cì le 。
“这……”如此结果，连林轩都大惊失色，这一次还真是机缘巧合，幻灵天火不止是增强威力，简直是脱胎换骨，蜕变一次了。
Everything was pitch black, almost like he was blind.
kōng jiān mì shù ！
空间秘术！
Lin Xuan was alarmed; could the simultaneous practice of two spirit eye techniques have caused some side effect? Despite this, he remained calm. He knew that even if he went completely blind, it wouldn’t matter since cultivators relied on their divine sense anyway. Before his thoughts finished, his eyes inexplicably regained their sight.
dāng hán lěng dào dá dào jí zhì ， jū rán yǒu kòng jiān suì liè de xiào guǒ 。
当寒冷到达到极致，居然有空间碎裂的效果。
Moreover, they were clearer than before. Such a change surprised and pleased Lin Xuan as he pondered deeply. Could this mean...?
Lin Xuan spoke as he pointed at the gourd, sending more heavenly thunder bees surging out. They swarmed like a tidal wave towards his opponent.
"You... don't dare to bully people too much! Truly forcing my brothers into a corner where we have no choice but to fight to the death. For you, that's not beneficial either."
Seeing that pleading was futile, the old monk's eyes flashed with a sinister glint as he said viciously, "Oh? Then I must try it out."
Lin Xuan wasn't new to this world; having experienced countless storms and bloodshed over six hundred years, such threats couldn't scare him.
With a wave of his sleeve, adecision-making formula or诀窍 (trick/method) flew from his fingertips. The heavenly thunder bees converged in the middle, transforming into a tiger with wings on its back that appeared before Lin Xuan's eyes.
The tiger was fierce and vicious as it lunged at the monk.
"Southwestern Buddha!"
The old monk recited a Buddhist mantra, but to everyone's surprise, he turned around and ran. He wasn't stupid; clearly, he couldn't defeat him, so staying here would only mean certain death!
As they say, if you can keep your mountain standing, you won't fear losing firewood. A virtuous man fears death more than a commoner.
Lin Xuan sneered as he raised his right hand and punched out. Unlike the old monk's angry expression, Lin Xuan's punch was light, almost like it didn't carry any force at all.
The two punches collided mid-air with no sound, but in the next moment, a series of cracking sounds echoed.
It was the hidden power from Lin Xuan's punch that shattered his opponent's bones completely.
Such injuries would render even a cultivator's body nearly useless. The old monk's head glowed white as an inch-high core floated out.
With fear on his face and green light surrounding him, he tried to escape, but Lin Xuan had anticipated this and stepped forward. His body rippled, moving faster than teleportation.
Lin Xuan reached out with his right hand, grabbing the old monk like a godly aid. The old monk's pitiful cries rang in Lin Xuan's ears as he didn't bother to talk. Flames appeared in his hand, reducing the core to nothingness.
The entire process seemed complex but took only a few breaths. The other cultivators were so frightened that they trembled, not believing this demon could be so powerful and easily destroy their leader.
"Please... Senior, spare my life."
"We beg you to let us serve as slaves in exchange for our freedom."
Compared to ordinary people, cultivators feared death even more since they sought immortality. However, Lin Xuan showed no mercy.
With a wave of his sleeve, dozens of sword lights emerged and decimated the remaining cultivators without sparing their cores.
There was no room for any survivors.
Lin Xuan then collected their storage bags and transformed into a streak of light, landing at the center of the island. Closing his eyes, he released his divine sense once more.
After a cup of tea's time, Lin Xuan opened his eyes with satisfaction. There were no hidden cultivators on this island, nor any traces of high-level beasts within a thousand miles. This place was perfect for cultivation.
He then moved to the western mountain peak where the other cultivators' caves were located. He didn't need to create new ones here.
However, he decided to set some restrictions around the island. Lin Xuan flipped his wrist and summoned several array flags in his palm.
With a few hand gestures, he set up the array as usual.
"Quick!"
Lin Xuan pointed at the island, causing white mist to rise, obscuring it entirely. This would make him much safer.
He then flew to a cave halfway down the mountain, choosing the most spacious and comfortable one. It was fully equipped with training rooms, living areas, even a medicinal garden. This saved him a lot of trouble.
Lin Xuan didn't rush into cultivation; he took several days off before exploring the entire island thoroughly. Only after that did he enter his training room.
He flipped his left hand, and three-colored flames appeared. It was Refined Spirit Heaven Fire, but trapped within were miniature versions of a dragon. This was the old monk's Frost Flame technique.
While its power couldn't match Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, their attributes were similar. In other words, this fire could greatly enhance Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire’s strength.
He would refine it first.
Lin Xuan crossed his hands and covered his palm with Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire before closing his eyes...
Three months passed like a flash. The cave remained silent as Lin Xuan opened his eyes in the training room, showing signs of joy. After much effort, he finally refined the Frost Flame.
It was slightly more challenging than expected, but Lin Xuan was pleased because Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire's increased power far exceeded his expectations.
He raised his hand, and Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire appeared, its blue color now even more striking.
"Quick!"
Lin Xuan pointed at the flames. They turned into a three-colored crystal, then transformed entirely into cold colors as a one-foot-long dragon emerged and lunged towards an empty space.
Bluish light flickered, revealing something unbelievable.
The space distorted and seemed to shatter under the intense cold.
"This..." Lin Xuan was shocked. This time, it truly was a stroke of luck. Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire not only increased in power but also underwent a transformation.
Spatial techniques!
When the cold reached its peak, space began to crack.
Although the range was small and the shattered space could quickly recover due to natural laws, this power was astonishing.
Lin Xuan believed that even an old demon of the Profound Realm would be unable to withstand such fire.
In fact, it surpassed even divine treasures, becoming his greatest weapon.
This unexpected joy, Lin Xuan played with the technique for a while before storing it away.
He then took out another jade bottle and opened its lid. He poured out several snow-white pills inside.
Spirit Jade Pills!
Lin Xuan took one pill and swallowed it, savoring the fragrance as he began to refine its medicinal power.
While his second core and demon nucleus were set aside for now, Lin Xuan's main core was trapped in the Separation Realm stage for a long time. He needed to increase his strength first before attempting to break through to the mid-Separation Realm.
High-level cultivators abounded; having strength gave him confidence.
Thus, he sealed off his cave and entered rigorous cultivation.
He didn't aim too high; Lin Xuan started with Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique again. It was a true spirit technique that could unleash formidable power.
Even without the subsequent techniques, what he had was enough to reach the peak of mid-Separation Realm.
In addition to taking medicine and meditating to increase his strength, Lin Xuan also consumed phoenix fruit daily while diligently practicing secret techniques.
Especially the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye and Heavenly Vision, which played a significant role during his search for treasures at Dan Yue Sect.
Lin Xuan practiced tirelessly. One day after completing Heavenly Vision, he wanted to see the results. Golden light flickered on his eyelids as colorful crystal appeared in his eyes. He had always used both techniques simultaneously without any negative effects, but today something unexpected happened.
Without warning, Lin Xuan felt a sharp pain in his head and suddenly couldn't see anything.
Everything was pitch black, almost like he was blind.
Lin Xuan was alarmed; could the simultaneous practice of two spirit eye techniques have caused some side effect? Despite this, he remained calm. He knew that even if he went completely blind, it wouldn’t matter since cultivators relied on their divine sense anyway. Before his thoughts finished, his eyes inexplicably regained their sight.
Moreover, they were clearer than before. Such a change surprised and pleased Lin Xuan as he pondered deeply. Could this mean...?
