yí gè gè quán tou dà xiǎo de zuǎn wén ， jìn rù dào yǎn lián lǐ ， xiǎn rán zhè shì shàng gǔ shí qī de wén zì ， hái hǎo zì jǐ rèn shí 。
一个个拳头大小的纂文，进入到眼帘里，显然这是上古时期的文字，还好自己认识。
One by one, the scriptural texts of various sizes entered Lin Xuan's vision. Clearly, these were ancient writings from a bygone era. Fortunately, he could read them.
lín xuān kāi shǐ yī zì yī jù de yán dú , hǎo zài bìng bù shēn sè ， bù guò xiǎn rán ， zhè bǎi cǎo xīn dé ， què rán shì yī dǐng jiē gōng fǎ ， wēi lì jí dà 。
林轩开始一字一句的研读,好在并不深涩，不过显然，这百草心得，确然是一顶阶功法，威力极大。
Lin Xuan began to study each word and sentence meticulously. The text was not overly complex, but it was evident that this "Herb Lore" was indeed a top-grade cultivation technique with immense power.
kě xī cán quē bù quán ， bù shǎo dì fāng dōu yǒu shū lòu 。
可惜残缺不全，不少地方都有疏漏。
Unfortunately, the text was incomplete, with many gaps and omissions.
lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， ruò fēi rú cǐ ， bǎi cǎo mén yě bú huì shuāi luò dào rú jīn de jìng dì 。
林轩叹了口气，若非如此，百草门也不会衰落到如今的境地。
Lin Xuan sighed. If it were complete, the Hundred Herb Sect would not have declined to its current state.
huā le yī tiān de gōng fu ， lín xuān yán dú wán bǎi cǎo xīn dé , suǒ liào méi cuò ， què rán yǒu yī xiē kě yǐ jiè jiàn zhī chù ， rán ér liáo liáo kě shǔ , shí jì de yòng chǔ bìng bù duō 。
花了一天的功夫，林轩研读完百草心得,所料没错，确然有一些可以借鉴之处，然而寥寥可数,实际的用处并不多。
After spending a day reading through the "Herb Lore," Lin Xuan confirmed that while there were some useful insights, they were few in number and of limited practical value.
lín xuān yǒu xiē bù sǐ xīn ， chóng xīn jiāng shén shí chén rù le yù tóng ， zǎi zǐ xì xì de sōu suǒ ， rán ér què zài yě méi yǒu fā xiàn shén me gǎn xìng qù zhī chù 。
林轩有些不死心，重新将神识沉入了玉瞳，仔仔细细的搜索，然而却再也没有发现什么感兴趣之处。
Despite his reluctance, Lin Xuan delved deeper into the jade cylinder. However, he found nothing else of interest.
suī rán dé dào le mò yuè tiān wū jué de xiū liàn gōng fǎ ， kě fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué nǎi shì mó fǎng fèng huáng de mì shù ， tā tóng yàng bù xiǎng fàng qì de 。
虽然得到了墨月天巫诀的修炼功法，可凤舞九天诀乃是模仿凤凰的秘术，他同样不想放弃的。
Although he had obtained the cultivation technique from the Moon Shadow Sky Witch Art, the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique was a secret art mimicking a phoenix's movements. He didn't want to abandon it either.
hé kuàng zài zhǔ xiū gōng fǎ yǐ wài ， zài xiū liàn yī mén shén tōng zài líng jiè lái shuō ， yě méi yǒu shén me qí guài ， gēn běn jiù shì cháng tài 。
何况在主修功法以外，再修炼一门神通在灵界来说，也没有什么奇怪，根本就是常态。
Moreover, in the spiritual realm, learning an additional technique alongside his main one wasn't unusual; it was practically standard practice.
kě xuán fèng xiān zi xiàn zài jí biàn huó zhe , tiān zhī dào yòu zài hé chù ， zì jǐ zěn me dé dào hòu miàn de gōng fǎ ne ？
可玄凤仙子现在即便活着,天知道又在何处，自己怎么得到后面的功法呢？
But where could he find the next stage of the technique if even the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art from this world had reached its peak?
lín xuān liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī ào nǎo zhī sè , yí bù xiǎo xīn ， shǒu shàng yòng lì ，“ pā ” de yī shēng ， chuán rù ěr lǐ , nà yù tóng jiǎn běn lái jiù shì shàng gǔ zhī wù ， ér qiě hái shì yǒu xiē wēi pò sǔn de ， zhè yī niē bù dǎ jǐn ， biǎo miàn dùn shí chū xiàn le bù shǎo zhī zhū wǎng yī yàng de liè wén 。
林轩脸上闪过一丝懊恼之色,一不小心，手上用力，“啪”的一声，传入耳里,那玉瞳简本来就是上古之物，而且还是有些微破损的，这一捏不打紧，表面顿时出现了不少蜘蛛网一样的裂纹。
"Could the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art have become a peak-stage Daoist in this realm back then?" Lin Xuan murmured. Regardless, it was a significant gain. The improved version of the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique was significantly more powerful than before, and there was now a cultivation technique that could take him all the way to the peak of the Profound Dao stage.
“ zhè ……, lín xuān yī è ， biǎo qíng dùn shí yǒu xiē gān gà le ， běn lái jiù shì zhǎo bié rén jiè de dōng xī , rú jīn jū rán huǐ sǔn ， zhè zěn me jiāo dài ？
“这……,林轩一愕，表情顿时有些尴尬了，本来就是找别人借的东西,如今居然毁损，这怎么交代？
Lin Xuan began to study the technique in detail. Half a month passed quickly as he found no difficulties understanding it, and many previously confusing points became clear.
“ yí , bú duì ……”
“咦,不对……”
To better integrate his knowledge later on, Lin Xuan planned to re-cultivate the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique. This wouldn't take long.
lín xuān tū rán yǎn jīng wēi mī ， biǎo qíng yě yóu yōu zhuǎn xǐ , yì diǎn jīn máng cóng liè wén zhōng shè rù le yǎn lián lǐ ， xià miàn yǒu dōng xī 。
林轩突然眼睛微眯，表情也由忧转喜,一点金芒从裂纹中射入了眼帘里，下面有东西。
Before that, however, there were things he needed to do. Since he had taken the Shangguan sisters as his disciples, Lin Xuan couldn't just ignore them and act like a hands-off mentor.
fǎn zhèng dōu huài le ， lín xuān yī bù zuò ， èr bù xiū ， shǒu shàng jì xù yòng lì ， zhěng gè yù tóng jiǎn , wán quán suì liè kāi lái ， yī zhāng jīn sè de báo shā yìng rù yǎn lián 。
反正都坏了，林轩一不做，二不休，手上继续用力，整个玉瞳简,完全碎裂开来，一张金色的薄纱映入眼帘。
After half a month, he left his cave and came out into the ancient exterior. He saw two streaks of light flying past.
xiàng shì nǚ zǐ suǒ yòng de shǒu juàn ， bù guò shàng miàn què mì mì má má ， xiě mǎn le wén yíng xiǎo zì 。
像是女子所用的手绢，不过上面却密密麻麻，写满了蚊蝇小字。
"Master, we greet you."
nà zì shí zài shì tài xiǎo le ， ruò shì fán rén ， kǒng pà hái wú fǎ biàn shí qīng chǔ ， bù guò zuò wéi xiū xiān zhě , zì rán wú dà ài de 。
那字实在是太小了，若是凡人，恐怕还无法辨识清楚，不过作为修仙者,自然无大碍的。
Seeing that Lin Xuan was waiting for them here, the sisters were alarmed and quickly bowed.
lín xuān jiāng shén shí fàng chū 。
林轩将神识放出。
"I said no need to be so formal in front of me."
fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué ！
凤舞九天诀！
"Yes, Master."
lín xuān dà xǐ ， suī rán bù xiǎo de ， dāng nián xuán fèng xiān zi wèi hé huì jiāng kè yǒu zì jǐ gōng fǎ de sī jīn ， fēng yìn zài hǎo yǒu de yù tóng jǐng lǐ ， dàn bù guǎn yuán yīn rú hé ， fǎn zhèng shì pián yi zì jǐ le 。
林轩大喜，虽然不晓得，当年玄凤仙子为何会将刻有自己功法的丝巾，封印在好友的玉瞳井里，但不管原因如何，反正是便宜自己了。
Lin Xuan then led them to a pavilion where he waved his sleeves, revealing a pile of items. There were many bottles and jars among them.
zǐ xì yán dú ， bù zhī bù jué jiù guò qù le yī yè de gōng fu 。
仔细研读，不知不觉就过去了一夜的功夫。
As a wealthy individual, Lin Xuan still had plenty of leftover medicinal pills that would more than suffice for the two girls' cultivation needs.
zhí dào dì èr tiān cháo yáng chū shēng ， lín xuān cái tái qǐ tóu lú , liǎn shàng què lù chū jǐ fēn gǔ guài zhī sè ， bù guò xīn xǐ de chéng fèn gèng duō 。
直到第二天朝阳初升，林轩才抬起头颅,脸上却露出几分古怪之色，不过欣喜的成分更多。
In addition, each girl received one hundred middle-grade crystal stones. Lin Xuan was not stingy with his disciples; their talents were already good, and with such resources, he believed they would progress quickly without disappointing him.
zhè fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué yǔ zì jǐ suǒ xiū xí de jū rán bìng bù xiāng tóng ， chā yì yuē yǒu sān chéng zuǒ yòu ， lǐ miàn jiè jiàn le yī xiē bǎi cǎo xīn dé ， ér gǎi liáng de dì fāng gèng duō ， xiǎn rán suí zhe xuán fèng xiān zi xiū wèi de jīng jìn ， duì yú gōng fǎ , yě shì zài bù tíng de gǎi liáng zhe 。
这凤舞九天诀与自己所修习的居然并不相同，差异约有三成左右，里面借鉴了一些百草心得，而改良的地方更多，显然随着玄凤仙子修为的精进，对于功法,也是在不停的改良着。
"Yan'er, Ling'er, I have reviewed the Herb Lore. Although it is a fine technique, there are many omissions that make its practice unstable. For now, you two should not cultivate it," Lin Xuan said slowly.
wēi lì gèng qiáng ， lián céng cì de huà xin fēn yě yǒu le yī xiē biàn huà 。
威力更强，连层次的划忄分也有了一些变化。
"Yes, Master."
yǐ qián de fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué gòng jiǔ céng ， gāng hǎo kě yǐ xiū liàn dào lí hé zhōng qī ， rú jīn de huà fēn zé gèng hé lǐ ， àn zhào xiū xiān de jìng jiè , fēn wéi bā piān 。
以前的凤舞九天诀共九层，刚好可以修炼到离合中期，如今的划分则更合理，按照修仙的境界,分为八篇。
The sisters had no objections; as their master, they would follow his arrangements.
měi yī piān duì yìng xiān lù shàng de yí gè dà jìng jiè ， bǐ rú shuō ， dì yī piān shì hé líng dòng qī xiū xiān zhě ， dì èr piān shì hé zhù jī qī xiū xiān zhě ……
每一篇对应仙路上的一个大境界，比如说，第一篇适合灵动期修仙者，第二篇适合筑基期修仙者……
"Master, then what do we cultivate next?"
ér lín xuān shǒu zhōng , zé yī gòng yǒu liù piān wán zhěng de 。
而林轩手中,则一共有六篇完整的。
Shangguan Ling curiously asked. Compared to her sister's reserved nature, she was much more lively.
huàn jù huà shuō ， tā kě yǐ xiū liàn dào dòng xuán qī dǐng fēng 。
换句话说，他可以修炼到洞玄期顶峰。
"This..."
“ nán dào dāng nián de xuán fèng xiān zi , zài zhè yī jiè ， jiù chéng wéi le dòng xuán qī dǐng fēng de xiū shì ？” lín xuān nán nán zì yǔ ， dàn bù guǎn rú hé ， zhè què rán shì dà shōu huò ， gǎi liáng hòu de fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué ， wēi lì bǐ yǐ qián zēng jiā le shù chéng zhī duō ， gèng bú yào shuō ， yì zhí yǒu xiū liàn dào dòng xuán qī de gōng fǎ le 。
“难道当年的玄凤仙子,在这一界，就成为了洞玄期顶峰的修士？”林轩喃喃自语，但不管如何，这确然是大收获，改良后的凤舞九天诀，威力比以前增加了数成之多，更不要说，一直有修炼到洞玄期的功法了。
Lin Xuan took out an eye-shaped crystal from his pocket, which recorded the Nine Heavens Profound Technique, capable of reaching the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. Lin Xuan had spent considerable thought on selecting cultivation techniques for the two girls.
lín xuān kāi shǐ xì xì cān wù ， bàn gè yuè de shí jiān hěn kuài jiù guò qù le ， suī yǒu xǔ duō gǎi liáng zhī chù ， dàn yǔ tā suǒ xué ， bì jìng shì yī mài xiāng chéng de ， lǐ jiě qǐ lái méi yǒu rèn hé yí nán zhī chù , fǎn ér shì yǐ qián xǔ duō mí huò de dì fāng ， zhòu rán máo sè dùn kāi le 。
林轩开始细细参悟，半个月的时间很快就过去了，虽有许多改良之处，但与他所学，毕竟是一脉相承的，理解起来没有任何疑难之处,反而是以前许多迷惑的地方，骤然茅塞顿开了。
After killing so many cultivators and collecting numerous cultivation texts, he still couldn't find a suitable technique for them. As his beloved disciples, Lin Xuan wouldn't settle for mediocre techniques; they needed to cultivate something powerful.
wèi le hòu miàn néng gòu gèng hǎo de de róng huì guàn tōng ， lín jǐng zhǔn bèi jiāng fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué chóng xīn xiū liàn ， bù guò zhè yīng gāi yòng bù liǎo duō zhǎng de shí jiān 。
为了后面能够更好的的融会贯通，林井准备将凤舞九天诀重新修炼，不过这应该用不了多长的时间。
Both were holders of unique spirit roots: one with an electric attribute, the other with an ice attribute.
dāng rán ， zài zhè zhī qián ， lín xuān hái yǒu shì yào zuò ， jì rán shōu le shàng guān jiě mèi wèi tú ， lín xuān dāng rán bù kě néng bù guǎn bù gù ， dāng shuǎi shǒu shī fù 。
当然，在这之前，林轩还有事要做，既然收了上官姐妹为徒，林轩当然不可能不管不顾，当甩手师傅。
Finding appropriate techniques wasn't difficult, but top-tier ones required good fortune. Following the principle of "better none than a poor quality," Lin Xuan decided that both girls would practice the Nine Heavens Profound Technique for now. Its power was suitable for any attribute and could serve as their foundation.
suǒ yǐ bàn yuè de qī xiàn yī guò ， tā jiù chū le dòng fǔ , cái gǎn lái dào shàng gǔ wài ， jiù kàn jiàn liǎng dào jīng hóng lián mèi fēi le guò le 。
所以半月的期限一过，他就出了洞府,才敢来到上古外，就看见两道惊虹联袂飞了过了。
Lin Xuan spent half a day explaining some difficult points to them before taking out two precious items.
“ cān jiàn shī fù 。”
“参见师傅。”
One was a pair of wings, shining with cold metallic luster. No one knew what material they were made from, but the chaos in the Great Wilderness Sea was caused by this item.
jiàn lín xuān jū rán zài zhè ér děng zì jǐ ， liǎng jiě mèi dà jīng shī sè ， máng shàng qù xíng lǐ le 。
见林轩居然在这儿等自己，两姐妹大惊失色，忙上去行礼了。
"Yan'er, your spirit root attributes match these Thunder Crane Wings. I will give them to you."
“ wèi shī shuō guò ， méi yǒu wài rén , wú xū rú cǐ duō lǐ de 。”
“为师说过，没有外人,无需如此多礼的。”
"Thank you, Master."
“ shì ”
“是”
Shangguan Yan was overjoyed and bowed to Lin Xuan. Even the Shark King's son coveted such items, spending millions of crystal stones for something far superior than ordinary ancient treasures. How could she not be delighted?
suí hòu lín xuān dài zhe tā men lái dào le liáng tíng lǐ miàn ， xiù páo yī fú ， yī dà duī dōng xī jiù yìng rù le yǎn lián zhōng 。
随后林轩带着她们来到了凉亭里面，袖袍一拂，一大堆东西就映入了眼帘中。
She respectfully accepted it.
qí zhōng yǐ píng píng guàn guàn jū duō 。
其中以瓶瓶罐罐居多。
Shangguan Ling looked envious but didn't begrudge her sister.
lín xuān kě shì shēn jiā fù shù , yǐ qián méi yǒu yòng wán de dān yào hái yǒu xǔ duō ， mǎn zú liǎng gè xiǎo yā tou xiū liàn shì chuò chuò yǒu yú 。
林轩可是身家富庶,以前没有用完的丹药还有许多，满足两个小丫头修炼是绰绰有余。
"Ling'er, don't disappoint yourself. Although I haven't found a suitable treasure for you yet, this talisman is enough to make you invincible in your peer group. Even against Foundation Establishment cultivators, you won't be at a disadvantage."
chú cǐ yǐ wài , měi rén hái yǒu yì bǎi kuài zhōng pǐn jīng shí ， duì yú zì jǐ de tú dì ， lín xuān dāng rán bú huì lìn sè ， liǎng nǚ de zī zhì běn jiù bù cuò ， zài yòng zhè me duō zī yuán zá ， xiāng xìn tā men jìn jí de sù dù , jué bú huì ràng zì jǐ shī wàng de 。
除此以外,每人还有一百块中品晶石，对于自己的徒弟，林轩当然不会吝啬，两女的资质本就不错，再用这么多资源砸，相信她们晋级的速度,绝不会让自己失望的。
Lin Xuan took out a talisman that seemed unremarkable on the surface but had a sword embedded within it, which seemed alive.
“ yàn ér ， líng ér ， nà bǎi cǎo xīn dé , wèi shī yǐ jīng kàn guò ， suī rán shì bù cuò de gōng fǎ ， dàn yóu yú yǒu bù shǎo yí lòu zhī chù ， suǒ yǐ xiū xíng qǐ lái ， bìng bù wěn tuǒ ， chēng men liǎng gè yā tou , zàn shí jiù bú yào liàn le 。” lín xuān huǎn huǎn de shuō 。
“雁儿，翎儿，那百草心得,为师已经看过，虽然是不错的功法，但由于有不少遗漏之处，所以修行起来，并不稳妥，称们两个丫头,暂时就不要练了。”林轩缓缓的说。
Cold air sprang forth, and its attributes matched the young girl's spirit root.
“ shì ， shī fù 。
“是，师傅。
"Thank you, Master." Shangguan Ling bowed gratefully.
liǎng nǚ bìng wú yì yì ， suǒ wèi yī rì wèi shī zhōng shēng wèi fù , jì rán bài rù lín xuān mén xià ， yǐ hòu zì rán yě jiù tīng tā ān pái le 。
两女并无异议，所谓一日为师终生为父,既然拜入林轩门下，以后自然也就听他安排了。
"Alright, it's late. Go back now!"
“ shī fù ， nà yǐ hòu wǒ men liàn shén me ？”
“师傅，那以后我们练什么？”
"Oh!"
shàng guān líng hào qí de kāi kǒu ， bǐ qǐ jiě jiě chén wěn de xìng gé , tā míng xiǎn yào huó pō dé duō 。
上官翎好奇的开口，比起姐姐沉稳的性格,她明显要活泼得多。
The two girls nodded and bowed again before reluctantly leaving.
“ zhè ge ……”
“这个……”
After arranging his disciples, Lin Xuan returned to his cave. With all preparations in place, he planned to focus on cultivation.
lín xuān cóng huái zhōng qǔ chū yí gè yù tóng , lǐ miàn jì zǎi le jiǔ tiān xuán gōng ， kě yǐ xiū liàn dào zhù jī qī dǐng fēng ， qí shí guān yú liǎng gè yā tou de gōng fǎ xuǎn zé ， lín xuān yě shì pǒ fèi le yī fān sī liáng de 。
林轩从怀中取出一个玉瞳,里面记载了九天玄功，可以修炼到筑基期顶峰，其实关于两个丫头的功法选择，林轩也是颇费了一番思量的。
In the realm of cultivation, strength was paramount. In a world teetering on chaos, more strength meant a higher chance of survival. Lin Xuan knew this well after experiencing so much turmoil.
qián qián hòu hòu ， tā miè shā le nà me duō xiū xiān zhě ， suǒ shōu luó de gōng fǎ diǎn jí zì rán hěn duō ， kě piān piān zhǎo bù chū yí gè shì hé liǎng yā tou 。
前前后后，他灭杀了那么多修仙者，所收罗的功法典籍自然很多，可偏偏找不出一个适合两丫头。
Medicinal pills weren't an issue, and now that he had a cultivation technique, it was time to focus on his practice.
bì jìng shì zì jǐ de ài tú ， lín xuān dāng rán bù kě néng suí biàn nòng xiē lā jī gōng fǎ hù nòng , yào xiū jiù yào xiū liàn hǎo de 。
毕竟是自己的爱徒，林轩当然不可能随便弄些垃圾功法糊弄,要修就要修炼好的。
However, before that, there was one small matter to address.
piān piān tā men dōu shì yì líng gēn de yōng yǒu zhě ， yí gè léi shǔ xìng ， yí gè bīng shǔ xìng 。
偏偏她们都是异灵根的拥有者，一个雷属性，一个冰属性。
Lin Xuan extended his hand and tapped his waist. A talisman-shaped magical tool flew out.
yào zhǎo dào shì hé de gōng fǎ bù nán ， kě jí pǐn de què bù nà me jiǎn dān ， zhǐ néng kàn jī yuán 。
要找到适合的功法不难，可极品的却不那么简单，只能看机缘。
With seven layers, it looked somewhat worn. Lin Xuan cast a spell, and the Soul Gathering Talisman shook, emitting a luminous aura as the first layer opened. A ball of white light entered his vision.
suǒ wèi nìng quē wú làn ， zài cǐ zhī qián ， lín xuān jué dìng ràng liǎng nǚ xiū liàn jiǔ tiān xuán gōng ， cǐ gōng fǎ wēi lì bù ruò , shì hé rèn hé shǔ xìng de xiū xiān zhě ， zhèng hǎo yòng lái gěi tā liǎ dǎ jī chǔ 。
所谓宁缺毋滥，在此之前，林轩决定让两女修炼九天玄功，此功法威力不弱,适合任何属性的修仙者，正好用来给她俩打基础。
The white light transformed into a vortex, and three blood fire ants emerged, flapping their wings excitedly. Each was about half a foot long, in good condition, indicating they were well-fed within the Soul Gathering Talisman.
suí hòu lín xuān chōu chū bàn tiān de shí jiān , gěi tā men jiǎng jiě le yī xiē yí nán 。
随后林轩抽出半天的时间,给她们讲解了一些疑难。
Lin Xuan's left hand flipped, revealing a purple plant in his palm.
yǎn kàn tiān sè yǐ wǎn , lín xuān xiù páo yī fú ， yòu qǔ chū le liǎng jiàn bǎo wù 。
眼看天色已晚,林轩袖袍一拂，又取出了两件宝物。
Purple Snail Grass!
qí zhōng yí gè ， shì yī duì chì bǎng , yín guāng shǎn liàng ， sàn fà chū lěng liè de jīn shǔ guāng zé , kàn bù chū shì yòng shén me cái liào suǒ zhù ， rú jīn dà huāng hǎi yù de xīng fēng xuè yǔ ， dōu shì yóu zhè dōng xī yǐn qǐ 。
其中一个，是一对翅膀,银光闪亮，散发出冷冽的金属光泽,看不出是用什么材料所铸，如今大荒海域的腥风血雨，都是由这东西引起。
The sound of wing vibrations reached his ears as the three ants flew over eagerly and began to devour it. After eating it up, Lin Xuan was pleased.
“ yàn ér ， mí de líng gēn shǔ xìng , yǔ zhè léi hè zhī yì wěn hé ， wèi shī jiù jiāng xī zèng yǔ mí le 。
“雁儿，弥的灵根属性,与这雷鹤之翼吻合，为师就将牺赠予弥了。
As expected, the records on the Soul Gathering Technique were correct.
“ xiè shī fù 。
“谢师傅。
Lin Xuan then returned the blood fire ants to the Soul Gathering Talisman before beginning his cultivation.
shàng guān yàn dà xǐ ， chōng lín xuān kē xià le tóu qù ， zhè dōng xī ， lián shā wáng zhī zi yě chuí xián sān chǐ ， huā le shù bǎi wàn jīng shí ， yuǎn shèng yì bān de gǔ bǎo ， cǐ nǚ qǐ bù xīn xǐ ， yòu zěn me huì bù zhēn xī 。
上官雁大喜，冲林轩磕下了头去，这东西，连鲨王之子也垂涎三尺，花了数百万晶石，远胜一般的古宝，此女岂不欣喜，又怎么会不珍惜。
The Moon Shadow Sky Witch Art was still incompletely understood, so he planned to re-cultivate the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique from the beginning.
gōng gōng jìng jìng de jiē le guò qù 。
恭恭敬敬的接了过去。
Every day, Lin Xuan would also feed the strange insects. After half a month, the blood fire ants started laying eggs, with each queen producing over a thousand.
shàng guān líng de yǎn zhōng mǎn shì xiàn mù ， dāng rán ， duì qīn jiě jiě ， tā shì bú huì jí dù de 。
上官翎的眼中满是羡慕，当然，对亲姐姐，她是不会嫉妒的。
The hatching process was quick; it took only another half a month.
“ líng ér ， mí yě bú yào shī wàng zhǔ wèi shī suī rán zàn shí méi yǒu zhǎo dào shì hé nǐ de bǎo wù , bù guò zhè fú bǎo zú yǐ ràng mí zài tóng jiē zhōng wú dí ， jí biàn duì shàng zhù jī qī xiū shì ， yě bú huì chī kuī de 。”
“翎儿，弥也不要失望丶为师虽然暂时没有找到适合你的宝物,不过这符宝足以让弥在同阶中无敌，即便对上筑基期修士，也不会吃亏的。”
Lin Xuan re-claimed ownership of them without needing to bleed, just setting up an array. The only regret he had was that none of the blood fire ants were queens, but this wasn't unusual as their birth rate was naturally low.
lín xuān yī biān shuō ， yī biān qǔ chū le yī zhāng fú ， biǎo miàn shàng méi yǒu shén me qǐ yǎn zhī chù , rán ér fú zhuàn zhōng xīn de nà bǐng xiān jiàn , què fǎng fú yǒu líng xìng shì de 。
林轩一边说，一边取出了一张符，表面上没有什么起眼之处,然而符篆中心的那柄仙剑,却仿佛有灵性似的。
Following the Soul Gathering Technique's description, Lin Xuan threw some low-grade crystal stones, and the young ants quickly devoured them, forcing him to throw more. In total, over thirty crystals were consumed!
One by one, the scriptural texts of various sizes entered Lin Xuan's vision. Clearly, these were ancient writings from a bygone era. Fortunately, he could read them.
Lin Xuan began to study each word and sentence meticulously. The text was not overly complex, but it was evident that this "Herb Lore" was indeed a top-grade cultivation technique with immense power.
Unfortunately, the text was incomplete, with many gaps and omissions.
Lin Xuan sighed. If it were complete, the Hundred Herb Sect would not have declined to its current state.
After spending a day reading through the "Herb Lore," Lin Xuan confirmed that while there were some useful insights, they were few in number and of limited practical value.
Despite his reluctance, Lin Xuan delved deeper into the jade cylinder. However, he found nothing else of interest.
"Damn it!"
Although he had obtained the cultivation technique from the Moon Shadow Sky Witch Art, the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique was a secret art mimicking a phoenix's movements. He didn't want to abandon it either.
Moreover, in the spiritual realm, learning an additional technique alongside his main one wasn't unusual; it was practically standard practice.
But where could he find the next stage of the technique if even the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art from this world had reached its peak?
"Could the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art have become a peak-stage Daoist in this realm back then?" Lin Xuan murmured. Regardless, it was a significant gain. The improved version of the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique was significantly more powerful than before, and there was now a cultivation technique that could take him all the way to the peak of the Profound Dao stage.
Lin Xuan began to study the technique in detail. Half a month passed quickly as he found no difficulties understanding it, and many previously confusing points became clear.
To better integrate his knowledge later on, Lin Xuan planned to re-cultivate the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique. This wouldn't take long.
Before that, however, there were things he needed to do. Since he had taken the Shangguan sisters as his disciples, Lin Xuan couldn't just ignore them and act like a hands-off mentor.
After half a month, he left his cave and came out into the ancient exterior. He saw two streaks of light flying past.
"Master, we greet you."
Seeing that Lin Xuan was waiting for them here, the sisters were alarmed and quickly bowed.
"I said no need to be so formal in front of me."
"Yes, Master."
Lin Xuan then led them to a pavilion where he waved his sleeves, revealing a pile of items. There were many bottles and jars among them.
As a wealthy individual, Lin Xuan still had plenty of leftover medicinal pills that would more than suffice for the two girls' cultivation needs.
In addition, each girl received one hundred middle-grade crystal stones. Lin Xuan was not stingy with his disciples; their talents were already good, and with such resources, he believed they would progress quickly without disappointing him.
"Yan'er, Ling'er, I have reviewed the Herb Lore. Although it is a fine technique, there are many omissions that make its practice unstable. For now, you two should not cultivate it," Lin Xuan said slowly.
"Yes, Master."
The sisters had no objections; as their master, they would follow his arrangements.
"Master, then what do we cultivate next?"
Shangguan Ling curiously asked. Compared to her sister's reserved nature, she was much more lively.
"This..."
Lin Xuan took out an eye-shaped crystal from his pocket, which recorded the Nine Heavens Profound Technique, capable of reaching the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. Lin Xuan had spent considerable thought on selecting cultivation techniques for the two girls.
After killing so many cultivators and collecting numerous cultivation texts, he still couldn't find a suitable technique for them. As his beloved disciples, Lin Xuan wouldn't settle for mediocre techniques; they needed to cultivate something powerful.
Both were holders of unique spirit roots: one with an electric attribute, the other with an ice attribute.
Finding appropriate techniques wasn't difficult, but top-tier ones required good fortune. Following the principle of "better none than a poor quality," Lin Xuan decided that both girls would practice the Nine Heavens Profound Technique for now. Its power was suitable for any attribute and could serve as their foundation.
Lin Xuan spent half a day explaining some difficult points to them before taking out two precious items.
One was a pair of wings, shining with cold metallic luster. No one knew what material they were made from, but the chaos in the Great Wilderness Sea was caused by this item.
"Yan'er, your spirit root attributes match these Thunder Crane Wings. I will give them to you."
"Thank you, Master."
Shangguan Yan was overjoyed and bowed to Lin Xuan. Even the Shark King's son coveted such items, spending millions of crystal stones for something far superior than ordinary ancient treasures. How could she not be delighted?
She respectfully accepted it.
Shangguan Ling looked envious but didn't begrudge her sister.
"Ling'er, don't disappoint yourself. Although I haven't found a suitable treasure for you yet, this talisman is enough to make you invincible in your peer group. Even against Foundation Establishment cultivators, you won't be at a disadvantage."
Lin Xuan took out a talisman that seemed unremarkable on the surface but had a sword embedded within it, which seemed alive.
Cold air sprang forth, and its attributes matched the young girl's spirit root.
"Thank you, Master." Shangguan Ling bowed gratefully.
"Alright, it's late. Go back now!"
"Oh!"
The two girls nodded and bowed again before reluctantly leaving.
After arranging his disciples, Lin Xuan returned to his cave. With all preparations in place, he planned to focus on cultivation.
In the realm of cultivation, strength was paramount. In a world teetering on chaos, more strength meant a higher chance of survival. Lin Xuan knew this well after experiencing so much turmoil.
Medicinal pills weren't an issue, and now that he had a cultivation technique, it was time to focus on his practice.
However, before that, there was one small matter to address.
Lin Xuan extended his hand and tapped his waist. A talisman-shaped magical tool flew out.
With seven layers, it looked somewhat worn. Lin Xuan cast a spell, and the Soul Gathering Talisman shook, emitting a luminous aura as the first layer opened. A ball of white light entered his vision.
The white light transformed into a vortex, and three blood fire ants emerged, flapping their wings excitedly. Each was about half a foot long, in good condition, indicating they were well-fed within the Soul Gathering Talisman.
Lin Xuan's left hand flipped, revealing a purple plant in his palm.
Purple Snail Grass!
The sound of wing vibrations reached his ears as the three ants flew over eagerly and began to devour it. After eating it up, Lin Xuan was pleased.
As expected, the records on the Soul Gathering Technique were correct.
Lin Xuan then returned the blood fire ants to the Soul Gathering Talisman before beginning his cultivation.
The Moon Shadow Sky Witch Art was still incompletely understood, so he planned to re-cultivate the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Technique from the beginning.
Every day, Lin Xuan would also feed the strange insects. After half a month, the blood fire ants started laying eggs, with each queen producing over a thousand.
The hatching process was quick; it took only another half a month.
Lin Xuan re-claimed ownership of them without needing to bleed, just setting up an array. The only regret he had was that none of the blood fire ants were queens, but this wasn't unusual as their birth rate was naturally low.
Following the Soul Gathering Technique's description, Lin Xuan threw some low-grade crystal stones, and the young ants quickly devoured them, forcing him to throw more. In total, over thirty crystals were consumed!
