“ duō xiè qián bèi chū shǒu xiàng zhù ， nín jì rán yǒu shì ， nà wǎn bèi yě bù duō liú ， zài zhè lǐ gōng sòng nǐ le 。” shàng guān mù yǔ yíng yíng yī fú ， liǎng míng shào nǚ yě lián máng qū xī guì le xià lái ， dà lǐ cān bài 。
“多谢前辈出手相助，您既然有事，那晚辈也不多留，在这里恭送你了。”上官暮雨盈盈一福，两名少女也连忙屈膝跪了下来，大礼参拜。
"Much gratitude for your assistance, Senior. Since you have matters to attend to, latee will not detain you further. May I see you off here," said Shangguan Muyu with a graceful bow. The two young ladies hurriedly knelt down and paid their respects in a grand manner.
“ bù yòng duō lǐ 。”
“不用多礼。”
"No need for such formalities."
shēng yīn hái liú zài cǐ chù ， bù guò lín xuān què zǎo yǐ zǒu yuǎn ， tiān huǒ zōng miè chú ， zì jǐ de shēn fèn yě bù yòng dān xīn xiè lòu ， zhè cì lüè xiǎn shén tōng ， duì bǎi cǎo mén yě shì yī zhǒng zhèn shè ， xiāng xìn gāi pài de dì zǐ ， jué bú huì zài duō zuǐ duō shé ， zì jǐ qǔ huò 。
声音还留在此处，不过林轩却早已走远，天火宗灭除，自己的身份也不用担心泄露，这次略显神通，对百草门也是一种震慑，相信该派的弟子，绝不会再多嘴多舌，自己取祸。
The voice lingered, but Lin Xuan had already walked far away. With the Tianhuizong eradicated, his identity was no longer at risk of being exposed. This display of power would serve as a deterrent to the Baicao Sect. He believed that the sect's disciples would not speak ill of him.
nǎo hǎi zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， lín xuān yǐ huí dào le dòng fǔ ， lüè zuò xiē xī ， rán hòu jiù lái dào le liàn fáng lǐ ， pán xī ér zuò ， suí hòu shēn shǒu yī pāi ， jiāng nà qī bā gè chǔ wù dài qǔ le chū lái 。
脑海中如此想着，林轩已回到了洞府，略作歇息，然后就来到了练房里，盘膝而坐，随后伸手一拍，将那七八个储物袋取了出来。
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling and took a brief rest before entering the training hall. He sat cross-legged and reached out to retrieve several storage bags.
lín xuān ná qǐ yí gè ， dài kǒu cháo xià ， qīng qīng yī dǒu 。
林轩拿起一个，袋口朝下，轻轻一抖。
Lin Xuan picked up one bag and turned it upside down, gently shaking it.
huā lā lā de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， guāng xiá liǎn qù yǐ hòu ， wǔ yán liù sè de jīng shí ， jī hū kuài yào jiāng nà kuān chǎng de liàn fáng duī mǎn le ， zì jǐ shēn chù jīng shí zhī zhōng 。
哗啦啦的声音传入耳朵，光霞敛去以后，五颜六色的晶石，几乎快要将那宽敞的练房堆满了，自己身处晶石之中。
A rustling sound filled his ears as the light condensed. Afterward, colorful crystal stones almost filled the spacious training hall, enveloping him in their glow.
quán shì gāo jiē zhī wù ” qí zhōng yǒu yī xiǎo bù fèn jū rán hái shì jí pǐn 。
全是高阶之物”其中有一小部分居然还是极品。
All high-grade items," he noted, with a small portion even being top-grade. He did not count them precisely but recognized that they were indeed substantial in number. This was just the tip of the iceberg; most of the storage bags remained unopened.
lín xuān méi yǒu zǐ xì qù shù ， dàn xiǎn rán shì yí gè kè guān de shù mù 。
林轩没有仔细去数，但显然是一个客观的数目。
The reason for not emptying all at once was due to limited space in the training hall and the large quantity of crystal stones. This was not surprising, as Lin Xuan continued his inventory. He opened another bag, revealing various bottles and jars.
yào zhī dào ， zhè cái shì jiāng chǔ wù dài zhōng de yī xiǎo bù fèn dào le chū lái ， lǐ miàn hái cún dé yǒu dà bàn 。
要知道，这才是将储物袋中的一小部分倒了出来，里面还存得有大半。
He picked up one bottle, uncorked it, and a pleasant aroma wafted out.
zhī suǒ yǐ bù quán bù yí cì xìng dào chū ， shì yīn wèi liàn fáng kōng jiān yǒu xiàn 。
之所以不全部一次性倒出，是因为练房空间有限。
"Jade Spirit Pill!"
cái huò zhōng yòu dà liàng jīng shí ， zhè dào yì diǎn yě bù yì wài ， lín xuān jiē zhe qīng diǎn ， yòu rú páo zhì de jiāng lìng yí gè chǔ wù dài dǎ kāi 。
财货中又大量晶石，这倒一点也不意外，林轩接着清点，又如炮制的将另一个储物袋打开。
This item was familiar to him; he had ingested many over the past two centuries, especially at Danyu Sect where he obtained them in abundance. These pills were perfect for enhancing the power of Separation Period cultivators.
zhè yī cì shì gè zhǒng gè yàng de píng píng guàn guàn ， lín xuān ná qǐ yí gè ， jiāng píng sāi dǎ kāi ， xiāng wèi ér piāo le chū lái 。
这一次是各种各样的瓶瓶罐罐，林轩拿起一个，将瓶塞打开，香味儿飘了出来。
Of course, not all the pills here were Jade Spirit Pills; they came in various types suitable for different cultivation stages and served diverse purposes—enhancing strength, breaking through barriers, treating injuries, assisting recovery…
yù líng dān ！
玉灵丹！
There were even some poisons, one of which was a dark, unidentifiable pill. Lin Xuan hesitated to consume it without certainty.
zhè dōng xī lín xuān shì zài zhèng cháng bù guò ” liǎng bǎi nián lái fú yòng le xǔ duō ， zì jǐ zài dān yuè zōng yě yǒu dà liàng huò dé ， zhèng shì kě yǐ yòng lái zēng jiā lí hé qī xiū shì lì de 。
这东西林轩是再正常不过”两百年来服用了许多，自己在丹月宗也有大量获得，正是可以用来增加离合期修士力的。
He sorted the recognized pills by category first, leaving the rest for later.
dāng rán ， zhè lǐ miàn de dān yào ， bú huì zhǐ yǒu yù líng dān yī zhǒng ， ér shì zhǒng lèi fán duō ， shì hé gè zhǒng děng jiē de xiū xiān zhě ， yòng chǔ yě gè bù xiāng tóng 。
当然，这里面的丹药，不会只有玉灵丹一种，而是种类繁多，适合各种等阶的修仙者，用处也各不相同。
Next, Lin Xuan opened another storage bag.
zēng jìn lì ， tū pò píng jǐng ， zhì liáo shāng shì ” fǔ zhù huī fù ……
增进力，突破瓶颈，治疗伤势”辅助恢复……
This time, various boxes and jars appeared. While there were also bottles and jars, their number was significantly smaller.
shèn zhì lián dú yào dōu yǒu ， hái yǒu yī zhǒng hēi hū hū ， bù qǐ yǎn de dān yào lín xuān yě wú biàn shí ， zhè zhǒng dōng xī tā kě bù gǎn suí biàn luàn chī 。
甚至连毒药都有，还有一种黑乎乎，不起眼的丹药林轩也无辨识，这种东西他可不敢随便乱吃。
Lin Xuan's expression changed as he opened a wooden box. Inside, something peculiar lay—a piece of bark with intricate patterns that emitted a faint fragrance.
xiān jiāng néng gòu rèn chū de dān yào ” fēn mén bié lèi de jiǎn hǎo ， zhì yú qí tā de ， zé jí zhōng fàng zài yì qǐ ， yǐ hòu zài shuō 。
先将能够认出的丹药”分门别类的拣好，至于其他的，则集中放在一起，以后再说。
"Purple Gold Bark."
jiē zhe lín xuān yòu jiāng dì sān gè chǔ wù dài dǎ kāi le 。
接着林轩又将第三个储物袋打开了。
Lin Xuan was delighted; this was one of the most valuable materials. If his guess was correct, these were rare treasures for his cultivation journey.
zhè yī cì ， chū xiàn de ， zé shì gè zhǒng gè yàng de xiá zi ， mù hé ， píng píng sì guàn yě shì yǒu de ， bù guò shù liàng míng xiǎn yào shǎo dé duō 。
这一次，出现的，则是各种各样的匣子，木盒，瓶瓶肆罐也是有的，不过数量明显要少得多。
He began to inventory the materials. Their uses were extensive. After two hours, he raised his head in joy, as the materials needed for forging the Nine Days' Sword's fire sword seemed almost complete, aside from a few key components that remained elusive but not impossible to acquire soon.
lín xuān shén sè yī dòng ， jiāng yí gè mù hé dǎ kāi ， lǐ miàn de dōng xī shí fēn qí guài ” xiàng shì yī zhāng shù pí ” bù guò huā wén yǒu xiē qí tè de yàng zi ， ér qiě hái sàn fà zhe yī gǔ dàn dàn de xiāng qì 。
林轩神色一动，将一个木盒打开，里面的东西十分奇怪”像是一张树皮”不过huā纹有些奇特的样子，而且还散发着一股淡淡的香气。
The remaining materials could be put to use later or sold at the market for crystal stones or bartered. Many high-grade cultivators held small exchange events where they traded items without using crystal stones as currency.
“ zǐ jīn pí 。”
“紫金皮。”
Inside another bottle were various grades of demon pills, some with unique characteristics that differed from those found in the mortal world.
lín xuān dà xǐ ， zhè kě shì jí wéi zhí qián de cái liào zhī yī ， rú guǒ méi yǒu liào cuò ， yǎn qián de ， dōu shì xiū xiān lù shàng ， kě néng yòng dào de zhēn xī cái liào le 。
林轩大喜，这可是极为值钱的材料之一，如果没有料错，眼前的，都是修仙路上，可能用到的珍稀材料了。
This was not unusual; Lin Xuan had been in the Spirit Realm for a long time and had read many ancient texts. During the primordial battle between the two worlds, the Netherworld lost due to the fall of Asura King, leaving behind some demons who remained in the Spirit Realm.
lín xuān kāi shǐ qīng diǎn ” cái liào de yòng tú shí fēn guǎng fàn ， liǎng gè shí chén hòu ” tā dà xǐ de tái qǐ tóu ， liàn zhì jiǔ tiān xū yú jiàn zhī huǒ jiàn de cái liào ， chú le chá chá shù zhǒng ， yǎn qián de ， zài jiā shàng zì jǐ yuán běn shēn shàng jiù yǒu de ， jī hū wán quán còu qí le 。
林轩开始清点”材料的用途十分广泛，两个时辰后”他大喜的抬起头，炼制九天须臾剑之火剑的材料，除了察察数种，眼前的，再加上自己原本身上就有的，几乎完全凑齐了。
The remnants were hunted down by Spirit Realm cultivators, but some escaped. Among these demons, there was a species called the Nether Beast that had similarities with Spirit Realm creatures. Could these be their inner organs or descendants?
kě xī nà shù zhǒng ， yě shì zuì zhēn guì ， dàn méi yǒu guān xì ， lín xuān xiāng xìn zì jǐ ， hěn kuài jiù kě yǐ quán bù còu qí 。
可惜那数种，也是最珍贵，但没有关系，林轩相信自己，很快就可以全部凑齐。
Lin Xuan took out a demon pill about the size of an infant's fist, its color dark and inky. He could feel the heavy Yin energy within it; his guess seemed correct.
qí yú de cái liào ， xiàn zài zàn shí yòng bù shàng ， dàn yě nán bǎo yǐ hòu méi yǒu yòng tú ， jí shǐ réng méi yǒu yòng ， hái kě yǐ mài dào fāng shì ” huàn qǔ jīng shí ， huò zhě yǐ huò yì huò ， bù shǎo gāo jiē xiū shì de xiǎo xíng jiāo huàn huì ， shèn zhì bù shōu jīng shí ， ér shì hù xiāng jiāo huàn xiǎng yào de dōng xī 。
其余的材料，现在暂时用不上，但也难保以后没有用途，即使仍没有用，还可以卖到坊市”换取晶石，或者以货易货，不少高阶修士的小型交换会，甚至不收晶石，而是互相交换想要的东西。
He put away these materials before picking up another storage bag…
zhì yú píng zi zhōng zhuāng de ， zé shì gè zhǒng děng jiē de yāo dān 。
至于瓶子中装的，则是各种等阶的妖丹。
This time, various treasures were revealed—sacred swords, long spears, short halberds, nine-sectioned whips, and a wide array of weapons, including some rare items collected by ancient experts. The collection was indeed rich.
hái yǒu shǎo shù yāo dān ， yǔ rén jiè yāo zú de bù tóng ， dào xiàng shì fā shēng le mǒu zhǒng biàn yì de nà zhǒng 。
还有少数妖丹，与人界妖族的不同，倒像是发生了某种变异的那种。
Lin Xuan held a sacred sword in his hand, infused it with power, and gently shook it. A cold, sharp aura emerged; it was undoubtedly a fine treasure, though not quite to his standard yet.
zhè bù xī qí ， lín xuān lái dào líng jiè ， yě yǒu nà me jiǔ le ， zì rán kàn le hěn duō diǎn jí ， shàng gǔ liǎng jiè dà zhàn de shí hòu ， yīn sī jiè yīn wèi ā xiū luó wáng yǔn luò ， ér zuì zhōng bài tuì diào le ， dāng shí dà bù fèn yāo guǐ ， suī rán táo huí le yīn sī ， dàn yě yǒu yǐ xiǎo bù fèn ， zhì liú zài líng jiè ， wú huí qù 。
这不稀奇，林轩来到灵界，也有那么久了，自然看了很多典籍，上古两界大战的时候，阴司界因为阿修罗王陨落，而最终败退掉了，当时大部分妖鬼，虽然逃回了阴司，但也有以小部分，滞留在灵界，无回去。
This was inevitable given his superior strength compared to peers and even those one rank higher. His high standards for treasures were natural.
zhè bù fèn yīn sī yú niè ， shí zhī dōu bèi líng jiè xiū shì zhǎo chū lái shèng shā diào le ， dàn nán miǎn yǒu lòu wǎng zhī yú 。
这部分阴司余孽，十之都被灵界修士找出来剩杀掉了，但难免有漏网之鱼。
Ordinary ancient treasures did not interest him as they failed to enhance his power. They were like chicken's feet—tasteless but regrettable if discarded. Lin Xuan now despised such items.
ér yīn sī jiè yāo guǐ zhǒng lèi fán duō ， qí zhōng yǒu yī zhǒng míng shòu zú yǔ líng jiè de yāo zú pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù ， nán dào zhè xiē jiù shì míng shòu huò zhě qí hòu yì de nèi dān ？
而阴司界妖鬼种类繁多，其中有一种冥兽族与灵界的妖族颇有几分相似之处，难道这些就是冥兽或者其后裔的内丹？
When selecting treasures, the only condition was quality; nothing less would do.
rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， lín xuān de jiāng yī kē yīng ér quán tou dà xiǎo de yāo dān ná dào yǎn qián ， zuò mò hēi sè ， lín xuān néng gòu gǎn jué dào ， lǐ miàn suǒ yùn hán de yīn qì ， kàn jǐ de cāi cè ， shí yǒu yīng gāi shì méi cuò de 。
如此想着，林轩的将一颗婴儿拳头大小的妖丹拿到眼前，做墨黑色，林轩能够感觉到，里面所蕴含的阴气，看己的猜测，十有应该是没错的。
However, some treasures required testing in hand to determine their true worth. Lin Xuan examined over a hundred treasures before half an hour passed with no success. He sighed and showed signs of disappointment when his gaze fell on a shield.
lín jǐng jiāng zhè xiē cái liào yě shōu qǐ lái le 。
林井将这些材料也收起来了。
This shield was circular, measuring just half a foot in diameter, roughly the size of an adult's palm. Its surface bore intricate patterns, and several unfamiliar talismans adorned it.
suí hòu yòu ná qǐ yí gè chǔ wù dài ……
随后又拿起一个储物袋……
Lin Xuan waved his sleeve, sending out a beam of light that enveloped the ancient shield. An unexpected discovery awaited him—instead of one, there were seven shields!
zhè cì shì gè zhǒng gè yàng de bǎo wù 。
这次是各种各样的宝物。
"Wow…"
xiān jiàn ， zhǎng gē ， duǎn jǐ ， jiǔ jié biān ， shí bā bān bīng qì quán bù náng kuò ， qí zhōng hái yǒu bù shǎo piān mén de ， dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù de shōu cáng ， guǒ rán fēng fù 。
仙剑，长戈，短戟，九节鞭，十八般兵器全部囊括，其中还有不少偏门的，洞玄期老怪物的收藏，果然丰富。
Surprised, Lin Xuan realized these might be a set. This was extremely rare; crafting sets of treasures or Spirit Weapons was far more challenging than individual ones but offered incomparable power.
lín xuān jiāng yī bǐng xiān jiàn ná zài shǒu zhōng ， lì zhù rù ， qīng qīng yī dǒu ， lěng liè de jiàn qì fēng yōng ér chū ， què rán shì bù cuò de bǎo wù ， bù guò zì jǐ yòng què hái shì qiàn le yī xiē huǒ hòu 。
林轩将一柄仙剑拿在手中，力注入，轻轻一抖，冷冽的剑气蜂拥而出，确然是不错的宝物，不过自己用却还是欠了一些火候。
Lin Xuan had used sets of Spirit Weapons before, but he had only heard about sets of treasures without ever seeing them. This turned out to be an unexpected delight.
zhè yě shì méi bàn de shì qíng ， lín xuān de shí lì ， yuǎn yuǎn shèng guò tóng jiē xiū shì ， shèn zhì lián gāo tā yī jiē de lí hé hòu qī xiū shì ， dōu kě yǐ qīng yì miè shā ， zhè yàng de shí lì ， duì bǎo wù de yāo qiú ， zì rán yě jiù gāo le 。
这也是没办的事情，林轩的实力，远远胜过同阶修士，甚至连高他一阶的离合后期修士，都可以轻易灭杀，这样的实力，对宝物的要求，自然也就高了。
Even more exciting for Lin Xuan was that these were shields. While offensive treasures were still manageable, his defensive options were limited after the destruction of the Black Gold Dragon Shield. He could no longer rely on the Five Dragons Formation every time he fought.
"Much gratitude for your assistance, Senior. Since you have matters to attend to, latee will not detain you further. May I see you off here," said Shangguan Muyu with a graceful bow. The two young ladies hurriedly knelt down and paid their respects in a grand manner.

He picked up one bottle, uncorked it, and a pleasant aroma wafted out.
