shī mó sōng le kǒu qì ， rán ér liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng yī jiù nán kàn yǐ jí ， wèi le jiāng lín xuān de gōng jī dǎng zhù 。 tā fù chū de dài jià fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。 gāng cái nà yī zhāo 。 kě shì xī shēng le yī tiáo shǒu bì cái huàn dé 。
尸魔松了口气，然而脸上的表情依旧难看以极，为了将林轩的攻击挡住。他付出的代价非同小可。刚才那一招。可是牺牲了一条手臂才换得。
The corpse demon exhaled, visibly relieved. However, his expression was still extremely unpleasant. To block Lin Xuan's attack had cost him dearly. The previous move had required the sacrifice of an arm.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng yě chà bu duō ， zì jǐ chǔ xīn jī lǜ ， shí ná jiǔ wěn de yī zhāo ， jū rán bèi duì fāng gěi huà jiě diào ， tā xīn zhōng de yù jié ， tóng yàng shì kě xiǎng ér zhī de 。
林轩的表情也差不多，自己处心积虑，十拿九稳的一招，居然被对方给化解掉，他心中的郁结，同样是可想而知的。
Lin Xuan’s expression mirrored his opponent’s. After meticulously planning and nearly guaranteeing success, he had been foiled by the other party. The frustration in his heart was equally evident.
liǎng rén jiē tái qǐ tóu lú ， mù guāng xiāng chù ， yǐn yǐn yǒu huǒ huā bèng shè ér chū 。
两人皆抬起头颅，目光相触，隐隐有火花迸射而出。
Both raised their heads, their gazes meeting, with a hint of sparks flying between them.
“ xiǎo zi ， shì nǐ dào zǒu le wǒ de bǎo wù ？” shī mó yī zì yī dùn de kāi kǒu le ， lǐ miàn de yuàn qì ， zhǐ yào bú shì xiā zi ， dōu néng gǎn shòu dé qīng qīng chǔ chǔ 。
“小子，是你盗走了我的宝物？”尸魔一字一顿的开口了，里面的怨气，只要不是瞎子，都能感受得清清楚楚。
"You brat, did you steal my treasure?" the corpse demon spoke slowly, his resentment clear even to those who weren’t blind.
“ bù cuò ， shì wǒ dào de ， zěn me yàng ， nǐ xiǎng yǎo wǒ ？” lín xuān lěng xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， shì qíng fā zhǎn dào zhè yī bù ， fǒu rèn yě méi yǒu yì yì le 。 dòng xuán qī shī mó yòu rú hé ， zì jǐ yě bú shì rèn rén zǎi gē ， zhēn dǎ qǐ lái ， shèng fù rú hé ， hái shì liǎng shuō 。
“不错，是我盗的，怎么样，你想咬我？”林轩冷笑的声音传入耳朵，事情发展到这一步，否认也没有意义了。洞玄期尸魔又如何，自己也不是任人宰割，真打起来，胜负如何，还是两说。
"Indeed, it was me who stole it. What do you want? Do you plan on biting me?" Lin Xuan's cold laughter echoed in their ears. At this point, denying it held no meaning. A Corporeal Stage corpse demon or not, he wasn't a mere puppet. If they really fought, the outcome remained uncertain.
jiù dāng shí yàn yī xià zì jǐ jìn jí hòu de shí lì jiū jìng rú hé ？
就当实验一下自己晋级后的实力究竟如何？
Perhaps testing his newfound strength would be worthwhile?
zhè yī cì mài rù hòu qī ， pǒ fèi zi yī fān bō zhé ， dàn shuāng yīng yī dān tóng shí jìn jí ， dài lái de hǎo chù zhī dà ， yě shì wài rén nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de 。
这一次迈入后期，颇费子一番波折，但双婴一丹同时晋级，带来的好处之大，也是外人难以想象的。
This advancement to the后期 stage had been quite difficult, but the benefits of having both infants and pills advance simultaneously were beyond imagination for outsiders. Moreover, Lin Xuan dared do this with full confidence. Even if he couldn't win, he was certain he could escape, so what did he fear?
hé kuàng ， lín xuān gǎn zhè me zuò ， zì shì yǒu shí zú de bǎ wò ， tuì yī wàn bù shuō ， jí biàn zhēn dǎ bù guò ， tā hái shì yǒu bǎi fēn zhī bǎi de bǎ wò táo tuō ， pà shén me 。
何况，林轩敢这么做，自是有十足的把握，退一万步说，即便真打不过，他还是有百分之百的把握逃脱，怕什么。
"You..."
“ nǐ ……”
“你……”
Lin Xuan's arrogance nearly burst the corpse demon’s lungs. He had stolen his treasure yet still acted as if it was justified. There was no sign of remorse.
lín xuān xiāo zhāng dào rú cǐ chéng dù ， jiāng shī mó fèi chà diǎn dōu gěi qì zhà diào le ， míng míng shì tā tōu le zì jǐ de bǎo wù ， jū rán hái zhè me lǐ zhí qì zhuàng de ， yì diǎn huǐ guò zhī yì yě wú 。
林轩嚣张到如此程度，将尸魔肺差点都给气炸掉了，明明是他偷了自己的宝物，居然还这么理直气壮的，一点悔过之意也无。
"Very well, very well. It seems you are quite confident. I know you're not an ordinary Separation Stage cultivator, but what does that matter? You think a bit of power gives you the right to challenge me. Pathetic!"
“ hǎo ， hǎo ， kàn lái nǐ shì hěn zì xìn le ， běn zūn xiǎo de ， nǐ bú shì pǔ tōng de lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， bù guò nà yòu rú hé ， yǐ wéi zhàng zhe yì diǎn shén tōng ， jiù yǒu zī běn yǔ běn zūn duì kàng le 。 bù zhī sǐ huó ！”
“好，好，看来你是很自信了，本尊晓得，你不是普通的离合期修仙者，不过那又如何，以为仗着一点神通，就有资本与本尊对抗了。不知死活！”
The corpse demon's cold laughter filled their ears, turning into a roar at the end.
shī mó lěng xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。 shuō dào hòu miàn 。 què biàn wèi le chēng mù dà hē 。
尸魔冷笑的声音传入耳朵。说到后面。却变为了瞠目大喝。
"How can one know without trying?" Lin Xuan said with a calm demeanor, clearly not taking his opponent’s threats seriously.
“ bù shì shì nà yòu zěn me xiǎo de ？” lín xuān yún dàn fēng qīng de shuō ， xiǎn rán méi jiāng duì fāng de wēi xié ， sī háo fàng zài yǎn zhōng 。
“不试试那又怎么晓得？”林轩云淡风轻的说，显然没将对方的威胁，丝毫放在眼中。
Upon hearing this, the corpse demon’s expression was indescribable, but he didn't speak. This guy seemed to be of the type who wouldn’t shed tears until seeing a coffin. Words were useless; direct action would soon have him suffering the consequences.
shī mó tīng le ， biǎo qíng zhǐ néng yòng mù zì yù liè lái xíng róng 。 dàn què méi yǒu kāi kǒu ， yǎn qián zhè jiā huo 。 xiǎn rán shì bù jiàn guān cái bù luò lèi de zhǔ ér ， kǒu shé zhī zhēng méi yǒu yòng chǔ ， zhí jiē dòng shǒu ， yī huì er jiāng tā chōu hún liàn pò ， zhè xiǎo jiā huo 。 jiù zhī dào hòu huǐ liǎng gè zì gāi zěn me xiě le 。
尸魔听了，表情只能用目眦欲裂来形容。但却没有开口，眼前这家伙。显然是不见棺材不落泪的主儿，口舌之争没有用处，直接动手，一会儿将他抽魂炼魄，这小家伙。就知道后悔两个字该怎么写了。
His body exuded an overwhelming aura of corpse energy. A fresh arm grew from his left shoulder, and in an instant, it withered again, transforming into a new corpse demon limb identical to his right hand.
tā hún shēn shàng xià shī qì pēn bó ， zuǒ jiān de shāng kǒu chù ， yī zhèn ròu yá huò dòng ， suí hòu yī tiáo zhǎn xīn de shǒu bì ， jū rán chóng xīn zhǎng le chū lái 。
他浑身上下尸气喷薄，左肩的伤口处，一阵肉芽蠖动，随后一条崭新的手臂，居然重新长了出来。
This wasn’t over yet. A pale white light appeared, and the broken armor on his left hand reformed.
kàn shàng qù ， yǔ pǔ tōng rén de shǒu bì chà bu duō 。 dàn bù guò shùn xī ér yǐ ， xuè ròu yòu chóng xīn gān kū xià qù ， huà wèi le yǔ tā yòu shǒu yī mú yī yàng de shī mó zhī bì 。
看上去，与普通人的手臂差不多。但不过瞬息而已，血肉又重新干枯下去，化为了与他右手一模一样的尸魔之臂。
With a glance, the corpse demon had no visible wounds except for a slightly discolored face. However, reality was different. Indeed, with secret techniques, limbs could regenerate, but the lost essence couldn't be replenished instantly. In other words, the corpse demon’s current strength was significantly diminished compared to his full power.
zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù ， yī zhèn cǎn bái sè de guāng yùn fú xiàn zhī hòu ， nà zuǒ shǒu chù cán pò de zhàn jiǎ yě chóng xīn shēn zhǎn ér chū 。
这还没有结束，一阵惨白色的光晕浮现之后，那左手处残破的战甲也重新伸展而出。
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan wasn’t idle. He held a large jar of spirit wine in his right hand and was gulping it down like there was no tomorrow.
yī yǎn wàng qù ， shī mó chú le liǎn sè yǒu xiē nán kàn yǐ wài ， hún shēn shàng xià ， méi yǒu sī háo shāng kǒu ， rán ér zhēn shí de qíng kuàng dāng rán bú shì rú cǐ ， bù cuò ， yī kào mì shù ， zhī tǐ kě yǐ chóng shēng ， kě sǔn shī de jīng xuè yī shí piàn kè ， què jué duì méi yǒu bàn fǎ bǔ mǎn de 。
一眼望去，尸魔除了脸色有些难看以外，浑身上下，没有丝毫伤口，然而真实的情况当然不是如此，不错，依靠秘术，肢体可以重生，可损失的精血一时片刻，却绝对没有办法补满的。
Lin Xuan wasn’t a heavy drinker, but he was replenishing his spent mana. Even if the immortal milk from ten thousand years ago was rare here, saving what he could was wise. The effects of spirit wine were inferior to those of immortal milk, but they were still quite good. His dantian and qi sea were continuously producing robust mana...
huàn jù huà shuō ， shī mó cǐ shí de shí lì ， yǔ quán shèng shí qī xiāng bǐ ， jué duì shì dǎ le bù shǎo zhé kòu dì 。
换句话说，尸魔此时的实力，与全胜时期相比，绝对是打了不少折扣地。
For now, both parties were content with their respective tasks, but as the saying went, before a storm comes, the wind fills the room. This was merely a calm before the storm.
ér lín xuān yě méi yǒu xián zhe ， cǐ shí tā yòu shǒu ， zhèng pěng zhe yī dà tán líng jiǔ ， wǎng zuǐ lǐ fēng kuáng de guàn zhe 。
而林轩也没有闲着，此时他右手，正捧着一大坛灵酒，往嘴里疯狂的灌着。
Roar!
lín xuān bú shì hǎo jiǔ zhī tú ， cǐ shí shǐ jìn hē líng jiǔ zì rán shì wèi le jiāng sǔn hào de fǎ lì bǔ chōng ， bì jìng wàn nián líng rǔ jí shǐ zài zhè yī jiè 。 yě shì nì tiān zhī wù 。 néng jié shěng jiù jǐn liàng jié shěng le 。
林轩不是好酒之徒，此时使劲喝灵酒自然是为了将损耗的法力补充，毕竟万年灵乳即使在这一界。也是逆天之物。能节省就尽量节省了。
The corpse demon let out a loud roar, then cast a spell towards his ghostly face.
líng jiǔ de xiào guǒ ， dāng rán bù jí wàn nián líng rǔ ， dàn yě jí wéi bù cuò ， hún hòu de fǎ lì 。 zài dān tián qì hǎi 。 yuán yuán bù duàn de zī shēng chū lái ……
灵酒的效果，当然不及万年灵乳，但也极为不错，浑厚的法力。在丹田气海。源源不断的滋生出来……
Dark clouds of阴风 swirled around the ghostly face, which opened its bloodstained mouth to spew foul black mist. Low-grade reanimated corpses numbered in the thousands, armored and armed. Crucially, these copper-armored reanimated corpses were formed by secret techniques; as long as their creator didn’t fall and they had mana, they could be considered immortal, making them extremely troublesome.
shuāng fāng gè yǒu shì qíng yào zuò ， yī shí piàn kè ， dǎo shì xiāng ān wú shì ， rán ér sú huà shuō ， shān yǔ yù lái fēng mǎn lóu ， zhè bù guò shì bào fēng yǔ qián de níng jìng bà le 。
双方各有事情要做，一时片刻，倒是相安无事，然而俗话说，山雨欲来风满楼，这不过是暴风雨前的宁静罢了。
These low-grade beasts were literally worn out to death by them.
hǒu ！
吼！
Now, hundreds of reanimated corpses roared and charged at Lin Xuan. The sheer force of the attack was formidable, though the corpse demon didn’t expect to defeat him with these creatures but hoped to cause significant trouble.
zhǐ tīng shī mó yī shēng dà hǒu ， suí hòu yī dào fǎ jué xiàng zhe bàn kōng zhōng de guǐ liǎn zǐ chū 。
只听尸魔一声大吼，随后一道法诀向着半空中的鬼脸耔出。
Next, the old monster opened his mouth, spewing a gray light that transformed into a long ribbon flying towards Lin Xuan’s neck.
yīn fēng rú mò ， nà guǐ liǎn zài cì zhāng kāi xuè pén dà kǒu ， cóng zuǐ bā lǐ pēn chū xīng chòu de hēi wù ， lǐ miàn rén yǐng chōng chōng 。 dī jiē liàn shī zú yǒu shàng qiān zhī duō ， pī jiǎ chí ruì 。 guān jiàn shì 。 zhè xiē tóng jiǎ shī 。 nǎi shì yóu mì shù xíng chéng ， zhǐ yào shī shù zhě bù yǔn luò 。 bìng qiě fǎ lì méi yǒu gān kū ， jiù kě yǐ shuō shì bù sǐ zhī tǐ ， nán chán yǐ jí 。
阴风如墨，那鬼脸再次张开血盆大口，从嘴巴里喷出腥臭的黑雾，里面人影憧憧。低阶炼尸足有上千之多，披甲持锐。关键是。这些铜甲尸。乃是由秘术形成，只要施术者不陨落。并且法力没有干枯，就可以说是不死之体，难缠以极。
This wasn't over yet. The old monster reached up and struck his crown, causing his body to spin rapidly in place. Gray-white corpse energy surged out, with an odd-looking treasure nestled within. It resembled a small mountain made entirely of white bones, with a waterfall cascading down its peak, the stench of blood permeating the air. A sea of corpses, rapidly growing in size.
nà xiē dī jiē yāo shòu 。 jiù shì huó huó bèi tā men gěi hào sǐ de 。
那些低阶妖兽。就是活活被他们给耗死的。
Lin Xuan’s expression turned slightly grim but showed no fear.
cǐ shí chéng bǎi shàng qiān de liàn shī yì qǐ nù hǒu ， xiàng zhe lín xuān chōng guò lái le ， nà shēng shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， suī rán shī mó méi xiǎng guò kào tā men kè dí ， dàn kěn dìng néng gěi duì fāng zào chéng bù shǎo kùn rǎo dì 。
此时成百上千的炼尸一起怒吼，向着林轩冲过来了，那声势非同小可，虽然尸魔没想过靠他们克敌，但肯定能给对方造成不少困扰地。
With a wave of his sleeves, the Ten Thousand Souls Tower emerged from within. It looked unremarkable on the surface and even somewhat dilapidated, but the corpse demon's pupils constricted. As an old monster at the Corporeal Stage, he had keen eyesight and could sense the extraordinary nature of this treasure.
suí hòu zhè lǎo guài wù zhāng kāi kǒu ， yī dào huī guāng pēn tǔ ér chū ， huà wèi zhàng xǔ zhǎng de pǐ liàn zhī wù ， xiàng zhe lín xuān jǐng xiàng chù fēi lüè ér chū le 。
随后这老怪物张开口，一道灰光喷吐而出，化为丈许长的匹练之物，向着林轩颈项处飞掠而出了。
Lin Xuan cast a spell.
zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù ， zhǐ jiàn lǎo guài wù shēn shǒu zài tiān líng gài yī pāi ， suí hòu shēn xíng dī liū liū de zài yuán dì jí sù xuán zhuǎn ， huī bái sè de shī qì fēng yōng chū lái ， ér zài shī qì zhī zhōng ， yǒu yī jiàn xíng mào qí tè de bǎo wù ， kàn shàng qù xiàng shì yī zuò xiǎo shān ， dàn què quán bù shì yóu bái sēn sēn de hái gǔ duī qì ér chéng de 。 shān shàng hái fēi liú zhí xià yī tiáo pù bù ， nóng zhòng de xuè xīng wèi ér mí sàn ér chū ， shī shān xuè hǎi ， tǐ xíng xùn sù bào zhǎng qǐ lái 。
这还没有结束，只见老怪物伸手在天灵盖一拍，随后身形滴溜溜的在原地急速旋转，灰白色的尸气蜂拥出来，而在尸气之中，有一件形貌奇特的宝物，看上去像是一座小山，但却全部是由白森森的骸骨堆砌而成的。山上还飞流直下一条瀑布，浓重的血腥味儿弥散而出，尸山血海，体型迅速暴涨起来。
A buzzing sound filled their ears as the Ten Thousand Souls Tower emitted a bright light, opening its first layer. A blinding white light appeared inside.
lín xuān de liǎn sè yě bù yóu de yǒu xiē nán kàn 。
林轩的脸色也不由得有些难看。
This light formed a vortex, revealing a blood-red insect cloud.
bù guò bìng méi yǒu duō shǎo wèi jù zhī sè 。 zhǐ jiàn tā xiù páo yī fú ， wàn hún tǎ cóng lǐ miàn fēi lüè ér chū ， biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， méi yǒu rèn hé qǐ yǎn zhī chù ， shèn zhì yǒu xiē pò pò làn làn de ， rán ér shī mó què tóng kǒng wēi suō ， zuò wéi dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù 。 tā de yǎn guāng fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yǐ yǐn yǐn chá jué chū cǐ bǎo de fēi fán zhī chù 。
不过并没有多少畏惧之色。只见他袖袍一拂，万魂塔从里面飞掠而出，表面上看，没有任何起眼之处，甚至有些破破烂烂的，然而尸魔却瞳孔微缩，作为洞玄期老怪物。他的眼光非同小可，已隐隐察觉出此宝的非凡之处。
The insects swarmed towards the copper-armored reanimated corpses, enveloping them in one strike with no悬念. The sheer number of blood ants was overwhelming.
lín xuān yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū 。
林轩一道法诀打出。
At this moment, half the sky was filled by these insects. Although Lin Xuan hadn’t released all of them, over a million magical insects were dancing in the air.
wēng míng shēng chuán rù ěr lǐ ， wàn hún tǎ biǎo miàn líng guāng dà zuò 。 dì yī céng hōng rán dǎ kāi ， yī dào cì mù bái guāng suí zhī yìng rù yǎn lián 。
嗡鸣声传入耳里，万魂塔表面灵光大作。第一层轰然打开，一道刺目白光随之映入眼帘。
As they say, like water to tofu, each has its match. These copper-armored reanimated corpses weren't originally meant for sacrifice; they were formed using secret techniques and nearly invincible. However, the blood ants ignored this and greedily devoured their corpse energy. Some even flew towards the ghostly faces in the sky.
suí hòu nà bái guāng huà wèi yí gè xuán wō 。 yī duǒ xuè hóng sè de chóng yún zài lǐ miàn chū xiàn 。
随后那白光化为一个漩涡。一朵血红色的虫云在里面出现。
The corpse demon’s powerful secret technique was immediately suppressed.
pū tiān gài dì 。 xiàng zhe nà xiē tóng jiǎ liàn shī yíng le shàng qù 。 yí gè zhào miàn jiù jiāng qí bāo guǒ 。 kě yǐ shuō sī háo xuán niàn yě wú ， xuè huǒ yǐ de shù liàng shí zài tài duō 。
铺天盖地。向着那些铜甲炼尸迎了上去。一个照面就将其包裹。可以说丝毫悬念也无，血火蚁的数量实在太多。
Regarding that ribbon-like treasure, Lin Xuan clearly saw it and pointed at it with a finger. The Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring emitted a bright light, and both rings clashed against the magical artifact, effectively blocking its formidable power.
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， dà bàn gè tiān mù dōu bèi tián mǎn le ， lín xuān suī rán méi yǒu fàng chū quán bù de shù é ， dàn fēi wǔ zài tiān jì de mó chóng yě dá dào le bǎi wàn zhī duō 。
此时此刻，大半个天幕都被填满了，林轩虽然没有放出全部的数额，但飞舞在天际的魔虫也达到了百万之多。
Although Lin Xuan wasn’t entirely satisfied with his own life-bound treasure, considering it more of a chicken’s rib, he was right about its effectiveness. That ribbon-like magic artifact struggled to break free but was ultimately held back by the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring. Despite the advantage, escaping seemed impossible!~!
...
The corpse demon exhaled, visibly relieved. However, his expression was still extremely unpleasant. To block Lin Xuan's attack had cost him dearly. The previous move had required the sacrifice of an arm.
