当然，以上仅仅是猜测，但不管如何，林轩七八分把握还是有的，一道法诀打出，百灵钟光晕一闪，那些火焰尸鸦顿时飞了回来，这一回，那些白色的灵禽没有紧随而至，而是噗嗤一声的消失。
Of course, this was just a guess. But Lin Xuan still had an eight out of ten chance. A spell was cast, and the light from the golden phoenix bell flashed. The flames immediately returned to their original positions. This time, the white spirit birds did not follow closely; instead, they vanished with a puff.
sì zhōu yòu chóng xīn píng jìng le xià qù ， rán ér jǐn jǐn shì biǎo miàn ér yǐ ， shí jì shàng ， què qián fú zhe lìng rén xīn jīng ròu tiào de shā jī 。
四周又重新平静了下去，然而仅仅是表面而已，实际上，却潜伏着令人心惊肉跳的杀机。
The surroundings quickly calmed down again. However, this calm was only superficial. In reality, there lurked an ominous threat that could send shivers down one's spine.
jiū jìng gāi zěn yàng cái néng jiāng yǎn qián de huàn zhèn pò qù ？
究竟该怎样才能将眼前的幻阵破去？
How could he break through this illusionary array?
lín xuān kě méi yǒu shí jiān zài zhè lǐ màn màn dān gē ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， zì jǐ suǒ miàn duì de ， zhì shǎo yǒu liǎng míng dòng xuán qī yǐ shàng de xiū xiān zhě ， ér qiě shí lì yǔ zì jǐ xiāng bǐ ， dōu zhǐ qiáng bù ruò ， tuō jiǔ le ， zì jǐ kǒng pà zhēn de huì yǒu shā shēn zhī huò 。
林轩可没有时间在这里慢慢耽搁，此时此刻，自己所面对的，至少有两名洞玄期以上的修仙者，而且实力与自己相比，都只强不弱，拖久了，自己恐怕真的会有杀身之祸。
Lin Xuan had no time to dally here. At the moment, he faced at least two cultivators of the Profound Dao stage or higher, and their strength was on par with his. If he delayed too long, he might indeed face a fatal danger.
yì bān de gōng jī ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu xiào guǒ ， bù lùn líng qín hái shì bǎo wù ， dū huì yǔ zì jǐ yī yàng ， xiàn rù zhè wú jìn de huàn shù zhī zhōng 。
一般的攻击，根本就没有效果，不论灵禽还是宝物，都会与自己一样，陷入这无尽的幻术之中。
Ordinary attacks were ineffective; whether it was spirit birds or treasures, they would all be ensnared in this endless illusionary spell.
shí jiān bù néng dān gē ， kě máng mù chū shǒu ， tóng yàng bú shì shén me zhèng què de xuǎn zé ， lín xuān xiàn rù le liǎng nán zhī zhōng 。
时间不能耽搁，可盲目出手，同样不是什么正确的选择，林轩陷入了两难之中。
Time could not be wasted, but acting blindly was also not the right choice. Lin Xuan found himself caught between two difficult decisions.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， nà jīn huáng sè de xióng shī ， zǎo yǐ zhuī zhì ， rán ér wàng zhe nà nóng chóu de mí wù ， tā de liǎn shàng ， què lù chū jǐ fēn jìng wèi zhī sè 。
与此同时，那金黄色的雄狮，早已追至，然而望着那浓稠的迷雾，他的脸上，却露出几分敬畏之色。
At the same time, the golden lion had already chased up to him. However, with a look of reverence on his face as he gazed at the thick fog, it seemed that this object both intimidated and inspired respect in him.
méi cuò ， shì jìng wèi zhī sè ， fǎng fú zhè dōng xī ， lìng tā yòu jìng yòu pà shì de 。
没错，是敬畏之色，仿佛这东西，令他又敬又怕似的。
Indeed, there was an aura of reverence, as if this thing made him both fear and respect it. Even though he knew Lin Xuan was right before him, he did not advance but instead shrank down with a flash of light.
míng zhī dào lín xuān jiù zài qǔ miàn ， tā què méi yǒu fǒu shàng qián ， ér shì guāng yùn yī shǎn ， tǐ xíng xùn sù suō xiǎo le qǐ lái 。
明知道林轩就在娶面，他却没有否上前，而是光晕一闪，体型迅速缩小了起来。
In just a few breaths, the lion vanished, replaced by an elderly man with golden hair standing in front of him. Despite his furrowed face, he was tall and imposing, his beard and eyebrows a fiery gold, giving off an aura that did not need to be angry to command respect.
jǐn jǐn jǐ xī de gōng fu ， nà xióng shī jiù xiāo shī bú jiàn ， qǔ ér dài zhī de shì yī jīn fà lǎo zhě chū xiàn zài miàn qián ， suī rán zhòu wén mǎn miàn ， shēn cái què gāo dà wēi wǔ ， xū fà zuò chì jīn zhī sè ， hěn hěn rú jǐ ， kàn shàng qù zì yǒu yī gǔ bù nù zì wēi de qì xī 。
仅仅几息的功夫，那雄狮就消失不见，取而代之的是一金发老者出现在面前，虽然皱玟满面，身材却高大威武，须发做赤金之色，狠狠如戟，看上去自有一股不怒自威的气息。
After deeply scrutinizing the dense fog ahead, the fury on his face dissipated, replaced by a leisurely expression. He had never expected such a high-ranking official to personally intervene; most cultivators would have been ensnared in this illusion and likely met with a gruesome fate.
shēn shēn kàn le yī yǎn qián fāng de nóng wù ， tā liǎn shàng de bào nù xiāo shī le ， qǔ ér dài zhī shì yōu xián zhī sè ， méi xiǎng dào nà wèi dà rén huì qīn zì chū shǒu ， xiàn rù tā suǒ bù xià de huàn shù ， yì bān de xiū xiān zhě nǎ néng táo tuō ” kǒng pà huì sǐ dé cǎn bù rěn dǔ 。
深深看了一眼前方的浓雾，他脸上的暴怒消失了，取而代之是悠闲之色，没想到那位大人会亲自出手，陷入他所布下的幻术，一般的修仙者哪能逃脱”恐怕会死得惨不忍睹。
That young man was indeed unlucky.
huó gāi nà xiǎo zi dǎo méi le 。
活该那小子倒霉了。
Now, all he needed to do was wait for the outcome here.
rú jīn zì jǐ yào zuò de jǐn jǐn shì zài zhè lǐ děng dài jié guǒ 。
如今自己要做的仅仅是在这里等待结果。
While his thoughts were correct, Lin Xuan was far from an ordinary cultivator. Common sense could not be used to gauge him.
tā de xiǎng fǎ gù rán méi cuò ， rán ér lín xuān yòu qǐ shì pǔ tōng de xiū xiān zhě ” cháng lǐ gēn běn wú fǎ duì tā jìn xíng chuǎi mó 。
他的想法固然没错，然而林轩又岂是普通的修仙者”常理根本无法对他进行揣摩。
Silver light shot from his eyes but without effect. This illusionary spell was too profound and complex; even if he fully activated his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye, he still couldn't pinpoint its weaknesses.
yǎn zhōng yín máng bào shè ， rán ér méi yǒu xiào guǒ ， zhè huàn shù shǐ guò shēn ào xuán fù ， zì jǐ jí shǐ jiāng tiān fèng shén mù yùn zhuàn dào jí zhì ， yī jiù wú fǎ chá jué dào xī de ruò diǎn zài nǎ lǐ 。
眼中银芒爆射，然而没有效果，这幻术矢过深奥玄复，自己即使将天凤神目运转到极致，依旧无法察觉到牺的弱点在哪里。
He couldn’t wait any longer. Otherwise, the hidden danger lurking beneath would make Lin Xuan extremely anxious. Once it erupted, escaping might be impossible.
bù néng yì zhí zhè yàng děng xià qù ” fǒu zé bié kàn xiàn zài yì zhí fēng píng làng jìng de ， kě yǐn cáng zài dǐ xià de shā jī ， què ràng lín xuān xīn hán wú bǐ ， děng xī zhēn de fā zuò ， zài xiǎng yào cóng zhè lǐ táo chū qù ， nà kě jiù lái bù jí 。
不能一直这样等下去”否则别看现在一直风平浪静的，可隐藏在底下的杀机，却让林轩心寒无比，等牺真的发作，再想要从这里逃出去，那可就来不及。
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with resolve. He could feel the terrifying nature of this illusion; ordinary attacks were ineffective. What about his final moves?
lín xuān yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jué jué zhī yì ， tā néng gòu tǐ huì dào zhè huàn jìng de kě pà ， yì bān de gōng jī méi yǒu xiào guǒ ” nà zì jǐ de jǐ zhāo shā shǒu tóng ne ？
林轩眼中闪过一丝决绝之意，他能够体会到这幻境的可怕，一般的攻击没有效果”那自己的几招杀手铜呢？
For instance… Illusory Heavenly Fire?
bǐ rú shuō …… huàn líng tiān huǒ ？
比如说……幻灵天火？
At least this divine technique had never let him down before!
zhì shǎo cǐ shén tōng hái cóng lái méi yǒu ràng zì jǐ shī wàng guò ！
至少此神通还从来没有让自己失望过！
And after a series of evolutions, it had even reached a point where it could freeze space, albeit very slightly.
ér qiě jīng guò yī lián chuàn de jìn huà yǐ hòu ， cǐ shén tōng ， kě zǒu dào le lián kōng jiān dōu néng dòng jié de dì bù 。
而且经过一连串的进化以后，此神通，可走到了连空间都能冻结的地步。
However, from a certain perspective, it did possess spatial techniques' effects. If paired with another treasure, they might be able to break through the illusionary array.
dāng rán ， jǐn jǐn shì hěn qīng wēi de nà zhǒng 。
当然，仅仅是很轻微的那种。
While he couldn't claim full confidence, there was still a good chance of success.
dàn cóng mǒu zhǒng yì yì lái shuō ， yě shì jù yǒu le kōng jiān shén tōng de xiào guǒ ， rú guǒ yǔ lìng yī fǎ bǎo pèi hé ， wèi bì bù néng jiāng yǎn qián de huàn jìng zhǎn pò 。
但从某种意义来说，也是具有了空间神通的效果，如果与另一法宝配合，未必不能将眼前的幻境斩破。
With this in mind, Lin Xuan no longer hesitated. He raised his right hand, and an ancient-looking long spear appeared in his palm.
shí zú shí de bǎ wò bù gǎn shuō ， dàn yīng gāi hái shì dà yǒu xī wàng de 。
十足十的把握不敢说，但应该还是大有希望的。
He clenched his fingers tightly as he shouted loudly. The power surged into the treasure before him like a flood.
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ” lín xuān bù zài yóu yù ， yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yī shì yàng gǔ piáo de zhǎng gē fú xiàn zài zhǎng xīn lǐ 。
想到这里”林轩不再犹豫，右手抬起，一式样古朴的长戈浮现在掌心里。
Woo…
wǔ zhǐ jǐn wò ， lín xuān yī shēng bào hē ， hún shēn de fǎ lì rú jué dī de hóng shuǐ ， fēng kuáng de zhù rù jìn le shēn qián de fǎ bǎo lǐ 。
五指紧握，林轩一声暴喝，浑身的法力如决堤的洪水，疯狂的注入进了身前的法宝里。
Finally, a mournful sound entered his ears, as if something ancient had been activated. Countless runes emerged, mysterious and ancient, shining like stars.
wū ……
呜……
This process was much more complex than when he dealt with shark demon diseases. Although Lin Xuan had coincidentally advanced both of his infant souls to the later stages along with his pill, there was still a gap compared to true Profound Dao cultivators. To fully unleash the potential of this ancient treasure would be extremely difficult.
zhōng yú ， cāng liáng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ” fǎng fú yǒu shén me gǔ lǎo de dōng xī ， bèi jī huó le ， wú shù fú wén fú xiàn ér chū ， shén mì ér gǔ piáo ， rú xīng guāng bān yào mù shǎn shuò 。
终于，苍凉的声音传入耳朵”仿佛有什么古老的东西，被激活了，无数符文浮现而出，神秘而古朴，如星光般耀目闪烁。
However, it wasn't impossible. As moreYouzhou characters appeared as Lin Xuan's power surged in, they quickly formed a circle, revealing an intricate and peculiar array before him.
zhè ge guò chéng bǐ dāng chū duì fù shā zú bìng mó de shí hòu yào fù zá dé duō ” suī rán lín xuān jī yuán qiǎo hé ， shuāng yīng yī dān tóng shí jìn jiē dào le hòu qī ， dàn yǔ zhēn zhèng de dòng xuán xiāng bǐ ” bì jìng hái shì yǒu yì diǎn chā jù ， xiǎng yào zài cì fā huī chū shǒu zhōng gǔ bǎo de qián lì ， shì fēi cháng kùn nán dì 。
这个过程比当初对付鲨族病魔的时候要复杂得多”虽然林轩机缘巧合，双婴一丹同时进阶到了后期，但与真正的洞玄相比”毕竟还是有一点差距，想要再次发挥出手中古宝的潜力，是非常困难地。
Lin Xuan's face showed satisfaction. Without hesitation, he raised his right hand high and swung the spear forward with all his might.
bù guò ， yě jǐn shì kùn nán ér yǐ ， bìng fēi jiù zhēn zuò bú dào nà yī bù ， suí zhe lín xuān fǎ lì de zhù rù ， gèng duō de yāo zú wén zì fú xiàn chū lái ， suí hòu yī shǎn ， wéi chéng le yí gè yuán quān ， yī guǐ yì jīng qiǎo de fǎ zhèn chū xiàn zài le miàn qián 。
不过，也仅是困难而已，并非就真做不到那一步，随着林轩法力的注入，更多的妖族文字浮现出来，随后一闪，围成了一个圆圈，一诡异精巧的法阵出现在了面前。
A crescent-shaped light blade appeared in his vision, more glaring than ever before. Tiny arrays were embedded within it, containing some spatial rules. Although they were just a surface-level understanding of these rules, they still represented rule power, far beyond his current level. To be precise, Profound Dao cultivators couldn't even touch such things.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè ， èr huà bù shuō ， yòu shǒu gāo gāo jǔ qǐ ， jiāng shǒu zhōng de zhǎng gē hěn hěn xiàng zhe qián fāng huī là xià qù 。
林轩脸上露出满意之色，二话不说，右手高高举起，将手中的长戈狠狠向着前方挥落下去。
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as he watched the path where the light blade sliced through.
yī dào yuè yá xíng de guāng rèn chū xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ ， yǔ yǐ qián xiāng bǐ ， gèng jiā de cì mù ， yīn wèi zài nà guāng rèn nèi bù ， jū rán yǒu wēi xiǎo de fǎ zhèn xiāng qiàn zài qí zhōng 。
一道月牙形的光刃出现在视线里，与以前相比，更加的刺目，因为在那光刃内部，居然有微小的法阵镶嵌在其中。
Sss…
lǐ miàn yùn hán zhe xiē xǔ kōng jiān guī zé ， suī rán jǐn jǐn shì pí máo ér yǐ ， dàn què shí shì guī zé zhī lì ， zhè yǐ jīng yuǎn yuǎn chāo guò le tā mù qián de céng cì ， zhèng què de shuō ， dòng xuán qī ， yě bù kě néng chù mō dào dì 。
里面蕴含着些许空间规则，虽然仅仅是皮毛而已，但确实是规则之力，这已经远远超过了他目前的层次，正确的说，洞玄期，也不可能触摸到地。
After flying several hundred feet, a sound like tearing cloth filled his ears. Then, before him, space… no, more accurately, that ice and snow world illusion shattered.
lín xuān zé yǎn jīng wēi mī ， zhù shì zhe nà guāng rèn zhǎn guò de guǐ jì 。
林轩则眼睛微眯，注视着那光刃斩过的轨迹。
A long gash was torn in it, though it quickly healed. Lin Xuan had finally seized this opportunity after much effort. With his usual impatience, he didn't hesitate to use Nine Heavens Micro-Step, darting out of the illusionary realm with a whoosh.
cī lā ……
刺啦……
This result exceeded his initial expectations. Without using Illusory Heavenly Fire, he managed to break through the illusion. However, Lin Xuan was still not complacent.
zài fēi chū shù bǎi zhàng hòu ， yī shēng bù jǐn sī liè de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， suí hòu ， yǎn qián de kōng jiān ……… bù ， zhèng què de shuō ， shì nà bīng xuě shì jiè de huàn jìng ， suì liè diào le 。
在飞出数百丈后，一声布锦撕裂的声音传入耳朵，随后，眼前的空间………不，正确的说，是那冰雪世界的幻境，碎裂掉了。
As he exited, he activated the Azure and Green Mother-Son Shields.
bèi yìng shēng shēng sī kāi le yī tiáo shù zhàng zhǎng de kǒu zi ， suī rán ， zài xùn sù huī fù ， dàn lín xuān kě shì lì jīng xīn kǔ ， hǎo bù róng yì cái zhuā zhù le zhè ge kòng xì ， yǐ tā de xìng gé ， yòu nǎ huì gān xīn cuò guò ， zǎo xù shì dài fā de zhǔn bèi zhe 。
被硬生生撕开了一条数丈长的口子，虽然，在迅速恢复，但林轩可是历经辛苦，好不容易才抓住了这个空隙，以他的性格，又哪会甘心错过，早蓄势待发的准备着。
Bang!
jiàn fèng xì chū xiàn le ， lín xuān èr huà bù shuō de shī zhǎn jiǔ tiān wēi bù ， sōu de yī xià jiù cóng huàn jìng lǐ dùn chū qù le 。
见缝隙出现了，林轩二话不说的施展九天微步，嗖的一下就从幻境里遁出去了。
There was no suspense as a peculiarly shaped treasure flew from an unexpected direction, sending both Lin Xuan and his protective barrier flying.
zhè yàng de jié guǒ ， dào shèng guò le zì jǐ yuán xiān de yù jì ， méi yòng huàn líng tiān huǒ ， jiù jiāng huàn jìng pò chú ， bù guò lín xuān sī háo yě bù gǎn qīng xīn dà yì 。
这样的结果，倒胜过了自己原先的预计，没用幻灵天火，就将幻境破除，不过林轩丝毫也不敢轻心大意。
Blood surged in Lin Xuan's chest as he finally identified it. It was a shape like a piercing cone, only half a foot long. Despite its small size, the power of this object was unparalleled. At least with his bare skin, there was no way to withstand such an attack. Lin Xuan felt a chill.
zài chū qù de yī kè ， jiù jiāng xuán qīng zi mǔ dùn jì chū 。
再出去的一刻，就将玄青子母盾祭出。
The opponent was not a Profound Dao cultivator at the initial stage and excelled in illusions. Could it be…
pēng ！
嘭！
He had already guessed who the opponent might be but didn't have time or mood to confirm it now.
sī háo xuán niàn yě wú ， cóng xié cì lǐ guǒ rán fēi lái yī xíng zhuàng qí tè de bǎo wù ， jiāng lín xuān lián rén dài hù zhào gěi dǎ fēi chū qù le 。
丝毫悬念也无，从斜刺里果然飞来一形状奇特的宝物，将林轩连人带护罩给打飞出去了。
Run first!
lín xuān xiōng kǒu xuè qì fān yǒng ， zhè shí hòu cái kàn qīng chǔ ， nà shì yī pò jiǎ zhuī xíng zhuàng de bǎo wù ， zhǎng bù guò bàn chǐ yǒu yú ， kě jiù zhè me yī xiǎo xiǎo de dōng xī ， gōng jī lì què wú yǔ lún bǐ 。
林轩胸口血气翻涌，这时候才看清楚，那是一破甲锥形状的宝物，长不过半尺有余，可就这么一小小的东西，攻击力却无与伦比。
Despite the blood surging in his chest, Lin Xuan did not idle. He raised both hands, drawing mysterious and ancient incantations from his lips.
zhì shǎo píng zì jǐ de ròu shēn de jiān yìng chéng dù ， nà shì kěn dìng dǎng bú zhù ， lín xuān xīn zhōng ， nà shì yǒu xiē dǎn hán le 。
至少凭自己的肉身的坚硬程度，那是肯定挡不住，林轩心中，那是有些胆寒了。
The syllables were extremely strange, different from any current language's pronunciation, as if they came from an ancient era.
duì fāng jué bú shì dòng xuán chū qī de xiū xiān zhě ， hái shàn cháng huàn shù ， nán dào shuō …………
对方绝不是洞玄初期的修仙者，还擅长幻术，难道说…………
Blue light flickered on Lin Xuan's body, then turned red.
tā xīn zhōng zǎo yǐ yǒu rén xuǎn de cāi cè ， rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， què méi yǒu xīn qíng yǔ shí jiān qù què dìng le 。
他心中早已有人选的猜测，然而此时此刻，却没有心情与时间去确定了。
Multicolored light circles rotated rapidly, appearing mysterious and ancient. These spiritual lights suddenly grew in size, like living beings expanding outward, quickly covering a square area of about ten feet, enveloping Lin Xuan's figure.
xiān táo pǎo zài shuō ！
先逃跑再说！
"Eh?"
lín xuān xiōng kǒu jǐn guǎn xuè qì fān yǒng ， dàn què sī háo yě méi yǒu xián zhe ， shuāng shǒu tái qǐ ， zài xū kōng zhōng huá guò yī dào yòu yī dào de guǐ jì ， zuǐ chún lǐ ， yě chuán lái shén mì ér gǔ piáo de zhòu yǔ 。
林轩胸口尽管血契翻涌，但却丝毫也没有闲着，双手抬起，在虚空中划过一道又一道的轨迹，嘴唇里，也传来神秘而古朴的咒语。
A short exclamation echoed as the hidden expert seemed finally taken aback!
Of course, this was just a guess. But Lin Xuan still had an eight out of ten chance. A spell was cast, and the light from the golden phoenix bell flashed. The flames immediately returned to their original positions. This time, the white spirit birds did not follow closely; instead, they vanished with a puff.
The surroundings quickly calmed down again. However, this calm was only superficial. In reality, there lurked an ominous threat that could send shivers down one's spine.
