第一千八百九十三章先天灵宝的符宝
Chapter 1893: The Talisman Treasure of an Innate Divine Treasure
lín xuān yǎn zhōng liú lù chū jǐ fēn chà yì zhī sè, yǐ tā rú jīn de shén tōng , zhè fú bǎo zì rán bù suàn shén me xī qí zhī wù , rú guǒ yuàn yì , zì jǐ yě kě yǐ liàn zhì chū lái de 。
林轩眼中流lù出几分诧异之sè,以他如今的神通,这符宝自然不算什么稀奇之物,如果愿意,自己也可以炼制出来的。
Lin Xuan's eyes betrayed a hint of surprise. With his current abilities, this talisman treasure was nothing extraordinary. If he wished, he could even forge it himself.
rán ér yǎn qián zhī wù bù tóng 。
然而眼前之物不同。
However, the object before him was different.
míng míng shì yī zhāng cán fú , kě ná chū lái yǐ hòu , què yǒu yī gǔ guài de qì shì mí sàn ér chū ,nòng dé zì jǐ yě mò míng qí miào de xīn tiào jiā sù 。
明明是一张残符,可拿出来以后,却有一古怪的气势弥散而出,nòng得自己也莫名其妙的心跳加速。
It was clearly just a fragment of a talisman, yet as soon as it was taken out, an unusual aura spread around, causing Lin Xuan's heart to race inexplicably.
yī bù hǎo de yù gǎn suí zhī fú xiàn chū lái 。
一不好的预感随之浮现出来。
A bad feeling arose.
lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu 。
林轩眉头一皱。
Lin Xuan frowned. His combat experience was vast, and he knew this treasure was problematic. But there wasn't enough time to change his tactics now; he could only take a deep breath and pour more magical power into the staff in his hand.
tā dòu fǎ jīng yàn hé děng fēng fù , zì rán xiǎo de cǐ bǎo bù tuǒ , bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè , yě lái bù jí biàn zhāo shén me , zhǐ néng shēn shēn hū xī , jiāng gèng duō de fǎ lì , wǎng shǒu zhōng de chán zhàng zhù rù jìn qù 。
他斗法经验何等丰富,自然晓得此宝不妥,不过此时此刻,也来不及变招什么,只能深深呼吸,将更多的法力,往手中的禅杖注入进去。
Instantly, the chanting grew louder, and the staff shadows became even more powerful. They then converged towards the center, forming a hundred-meter-long staff shadow that appeared before his eyes.
dùn shí , fàn chàng zhī shēng dà qǐ , nà xiē zhàng yǐng biàn dé yuè fā de gěi lì , suí hòu wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù , yī dào bǎi zhàng lái zhǎng de zhàng yǐng fú xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ 。
顿时,梵唱之声大起,那些杖影变得越发的给力,随后往中间一聚,一道百丈来长的杖影浮现在视线里。
Similar to the previous attack, but its power had increased by at least twenty percent.
yǔ gāng gāng de gōng jī biǎo miàn xiàng shì , rán ér wēi lì qǐ mǎ tí shēng le liǎng chéng yǒu yú 。
与刚刚的攻击表面相似,然而威力起码提升了两成有余。
Lightning, fire, and electric arcs emerged simultaneously.
léi huǒ diàn hú , yì qǐ fú xiàn ér chū 。
雷火电弧,一起浮现而出。
As the Poison Dragon Ancestor was about to be reduced to pulp, another fragment of the talisman ignited with a layer of golden light. Within this glow, there was a bronze bell.
yǎn kàn dú lóng lǎo zǔ jiù yào bèi dǎ chéng ròu ní , nà zhāng cán fú què yě wú fēng rán qǐ , yī céng jīn máng chū xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ , jīn máng zhī zhōng , yǒu yī tóng zhōng 。
眼看毒龙老祖就要被打成ròu泥,那张残符却也无风燃起,一层金芒出现在视线里,金芒之中,有一铜钟。
The design was ancient, exuding powerful and mysterious energy.
zào xíng gǔ piáo , shàng miàn yǒu qiáng dà ér shén mì de qì xī fú xiàn ér chū 。
造型古朴,上面有强大而神秘的气息浮现而出。
Next, the bell flashed and fell over his head, protecting the Poison Dragon Ancestor.
suí hòu tóng zhōng yī shǎn , dāng tóu kòu le xià lái , jiāng dú lóng lǎo zǔ hù zài qī jiān 。
随后铜钟一闪,当头扣了下来,将毒龙老祖护在期间。
In the next moment, Lin Xuan's attack arrived as scheduled.
xià yī kè , lín xuān de gōng jī yǐ shì rú qī ér zhì 。
下一刻,林轩的攻击已是如期而至。
Bang!
pēng !
嘭!
A loud noise echoed in his ears, causing the entire space to tremble violently. The shockwave and gale-force winds flew outwards.
jù xiǎng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ , zhěng gè kōng jiān , fǎng fú dōu zài hěn hěn de chàn dǒu , chōng jī bō yǔ gāng fēng xiàng zhe sì zhōu fēi xiè ér chū 。
巨响声传入耳朵,整个空间,仿佛都在狠狠的颤抖,冲击bō与罡风向着四周飞泻而出。
Wherever it passed, waves of destruction surged forth. A nearby small island was completely submerged by seawater. The power of a cultivator capable of moving mountains and turning seas upside down was evident in this strike.
suǒ guò zhī chù , è làng tāo tiān , bù yuǎn chù de xiǎo dǎo , yǐ wán quán bèi hǎi shuǐ tūn mò , xiū xiān zhě yōng yǒu yí shān dǎo hǎi zhī lì , zài zhè yī jī lǐ , tǐ xiàn wú yí 。
所过之处,恶làng滔天,不远处的xiǎo岛,已完全被海水吞没,修仙者拥有移山倒海之力,在这一击里,体现无疑。
Ordinary玄期 old monsters would find it hard to produce such powerful attacks.
zhì shǎo pǔ tōng de dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù , hěn nán zuò chū zhè yàng dà wēi lì de gōng jī 。
至少普通的dòng玄期老怪物,很难做出这样大威力的攻击。
However, Lin Xuan's expression showed no signs of joy.
rán ér lín xuān liǎn shàng què bìng wú xǐ sè。
然而林轩脸上却并无喜sè。
Because his previous all-out attack had failed to achieve the expected results.
yīn wèi gāng cái de quán lì yī jī , sī háo méi yǒu shōu dào yù xiǎng de xiào guǒ 。
因为刚才的全力一击,丝毫没有收到预想的效果。
Not only did he fail to break the bell, but not even a single crack appeared on its surface.
bié shuō jiāng nà tóng zhōng dǎ pò , shàng miàn lián yī sī liè fèng yě wú 。
别说将那铜钟打破,上面连一丝裂缝也无。
Lin Xuan's face darkened considerably.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng yǒu xiē nán kàn le 。
林轩的表情有些难看了。
How could a mere fragment of a talisman be so terrifying? Could it...
qū qū yī zhāng fú bǎo , wēi lì zěn me kě pà dào zhè zhǒng chéng dù , nán dào shuō ……
区区一张符宝,威力怎么可怕到这种程度,难道说……
Before he could finish his thoughts, the Poison Dragon Ancestor's voice echoed in his ears, filled with arrogance and malice:
tā zhè lǐ hái zài cāi cè , dú lóng lǎo zǔ de shēng yīn yǐ jīng zhuàn rù ěr duǒ , lǐ miàn chōng mǎn le xiāo zhāng yǔ yuàn dú :
他这里还在猜测,毒龙老祖的声音已经传入耳朵,里面充满了嚣张与怨毒:
"Lin family brat, do you really think you can break through my defenses? Dream on. This talisman is something I obtained from the ruins sea; it’s a talisman made from an innate divine treasure."
“ xìng lín de xiǎo jiā huo , jiù píng nǐ , yě xiǎng yào gōng pò lǎo zǔ de fáng yù , bié zuò mèng le , zhè zhāng fú lù , kě shì lǎo zǔ wǒ zài yí jì zhī hǎi zhōng suǒ de , nǎi shì xiān tiān líng bǎo suǒ zhì zuò de fú bǎo 。”
“姓林的xiǎo家伙,就凭你,也想要攻破老祖的防御,别做梦了,这张符箓,可是老祖我在遗迹之海中所得,乃是先天灵宝所制作的符宝。”
"What, an innate divine treasure?"
“ shén me , xiān tiān líng bǎo ?”
“什么,先天灵宝?”
Lin Xuan was stunned. He wasn't a greenhorn and knew what an innate divine treasure meant. Although they were collectively called divine treasures with their postnatal counterparts, they were fundamentally different in power.
lín xuān jīng è yì cháng , tā yòu bú shì chū chū máo lú de xiǎo jiā huo , dāng rán zhī dào xiān tiān líng bǎo yì wèi zhe shén me , suī rán yǔ hòu tiān líng bǎo yì qǐ , tǒng chēng líng bǎo , dàn gēn běn jiù shì bù tóng de dōng xī , wēi lì bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ 。
林轩惊愕异常,他又不是初出茅庐的xiǎo家伙,当然知道先天灵宝意味着什么,虽然与后天灵宝一起,统称灵宝,但根本就是不同的东西,威力不可同日而语。
In the spirit realm, there weren’t many known innate divine treasures, and those that existed were mostly held by top-tier cultivators. Their origins remained mysterious, with the most convincing theory being that they came from the Immortal Realm.
líng jiè de xiān tiān líng bǎo , suī bù néng shuō qū zhǐ kě shǔ , dàn yǒu míng de , yě jiù nà me liáo liáo jǐ gè , zhǎng wò zài yī xiē dǐng jiē de dà néng xiū shì shǒu zhōng 。
灵界的先天灵宝,虽不能说屈指可数,但有名的,也就那么寥寥几个,掌握在一些顶阶的大能修士手中。
Some had attempted to replicate them, but their craftsmanship was so extraordinary that no one in the spirit realm had ever succeeded.
tā men de lái lì , dōu shì yí gè mí , zuì ràng rén xìn fú de shuō fǎ , shì cóng xiān jiè liú chuán xià lái dì 。
牠们的来历,都是一个谜,最让人信服的说法,是从仙界流传下来地。
However, this talisman was a different matter.
yě yǒu rén xiǎng guò fǎng zhì , rán ér tā men de gōng yì , jiǎn zhí dào le nì tiān de chéng dù , líng jiè de zhū wèi dà néng xiū xiān zhě , hái cóng lái méi yǒu tīng shuō , shuí céng jīng chéng gōng guò 。
也有人想过仿制,然而牠们的工艺,简直到了逆天的程度,灵界的诸位大能修仙者,还从来没有听说,谁曾经成功过。
Lin Xuan's expression was extremely grim. He didn't think it was an outright lie because there was no other explanation for such a fragment of a talisman having such terrifying power.
bù guò fú bǎo yòu shì liǎng huí shì le 。
不过符宝又是两回事了。
While it made sense that such a treasure shouldn’t be within the Poison Dragon Ancestor’s reach, the situation in the East Sea was unique. The ruins sea had been where scattered immortals and Heavenly Saber King clashed. So leaving behind this fragment of a talisman wasn't impossible.
lín xuān de liǎn sè nán kàn yǐ jí , dào bù jué de duì fāng shì zài huǎng yán xiāng qī , yīn wèi chú le zhè ge kě néng , shí zài nán yǐ jiě shì , qū qū yī zhāng fú , wēi lì hé yǐ néng gòu dào dá nà bān dì bù 。
林轩的脸sè难看以极,倒不觉得对方是在谎言相欺,因为除了这个可能,实在难以解释,区区一张符,威力何以能够到达那般地步。
Despite his shock, Lin Xuan was also relieved.
suī rán cóng cháng lǐ lái shuō , zhè zhǒng bǎo wù , yǐ dú lóng lǎo zǔ de shēn fèn , shì bù yīng gāi dé dào de 。
虽然从常理来说,这种宝物,以毒龙老祖的身份,是不应该得到的。
Fortunately, this talisman's function was defensive. If it were offensive, he would be the one fleeing in panic.
bù guò dōng hǎi qíng kuàng tè shū , yí jì zhī hǎi céng shì sàn xiān yǔ tiān shā míng wáng jué dòu zhī dì , nà me yí liú xià zhè me yī zhāng cán fú , nà yě jiù shì dà yǒu kě néng de 。
不过东海情况特殊,遗迹之海曾是散仙与天煞明王决斗之地,那么遗留下这么一张残符,那也就是大有可能的。
This old monster had quite a good fortune; he managed to escape from that mysterious small island, and this talisman likely played a significant role.
xīn jīng zhī yú , lín xuān yě shì qìng xìng bù yǐ 。
心惊之余,林轩也是庆幸不已。
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan didn't stop his actions. Since it was only a defensive treasure, its threat to him was much reduced. He wouldn’t give up so easily.
xìng hǎo cǐ fú de zuò yòng , nǎi shì fáng yù , rú guǒ huàn wèi gōng jī , luò huāng ér táo de kǒng pà jiù shì zì jǐ 。
幸好此符的作用,乃是防御,如果换为攻击,落荒而逃的恐怕就是自己。
He flicked his sleeve, and the Magic Bond Sword flew out.
zhè lǎo guài wù , shēn jiā hái zhēn bù cuò , tā néng cóng nà shén mì de xiǎo dǎo táo tuō , cǐ fú kǒng pà yě fā huī le bù xiǎo de xiào guǒ 。
这老怪物,身家还真不错,他能从那神秘的xiǎo岛逃脱,此符恐怕也发挥了不xiǎo的效果。
Holding it with his hand, silver light shone brightly as magical power flowed in like water.
xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe , lín xuān shǒu shàng què méi yǒu tíng zhǐ dòng zuò , jì rán zhǐ shì fáng yù lèi bǎo wù , duì zì jǐ de wēi xié yě jiù xiǎo le xǔ duō , lín xuān dāng rán bú huì jiù cǐ bǎi shǒu 。
心中如此想着,林轩手上却没有停止动作,既然只是防御类宝物,对自己的威胁也就xiǎo了许多,林轩当然不会就此摆手。
Then, raising his right hand, he swung it fiercely at the old monster. Silently, a majestic sword aura rose from nowhere, converging to form a creature with the head of a qilin and the body of a horse, with wings on its back and scales that shimmered silver.
xiù páo yī fú , mó yuán jiàn yǐ fēi lüè ér chū 。
袖袍一拂,魔缘剑已飞掠而出。
Qilin!
shēn shǒu wò zhù , yín máng yào yǎn , fǎ lì rú liú shuǐ yì bān de zhù rù qí jiān 。
伸手握住,银芒耀眼,法力如流水一般的注入其间。
From this beast's body, an infinite amount of malevolent energy emanated as it opened its blood-red mouth, roaring fiercely towards its enemy.
suí hòu lín xuān yòu shǒu tái qǐ , xiàng zhe lǎo mó hěn hěn huī là xià qù , wú shēng wú xī , yī dào huī hóng de jiàn qì què píng kōng ér qǐ , suí hòu wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù , jìng huàn huà chū yī lóng tóu mǎ shēn de guài wù , bèi yǒu shuāng yì , hún shēn de lín piàn yín guāng liú lí 。
随后林轩右手抬起,向着老魔狠狠挥落下去,无声无息,一道恢宏的剑气却凭空而起,随后往中间一聚,竟幻化出一龙头马身的怪物,背有双翼,浑身的鳞片银光琉璃。
The momentum seemed capable of tearing through any defense.
qí lín !
麒麟!
However, the result left Lin Xuan extremely disappointed. The thunder was loud but the rain small; not because the Magic Bond Sword lacked power, but because the talisman's defensive capabilities were too formidable.
cóng cǐ shòu de shēn shàng , sàn fà chū wú xiàn de lì qì , zhāng kāi xuè pén dà kǒu , wēi fēng lǐn lǐn , xiàng zhe dí rén pū le guò qù 。
从此兽的身上,散发出无限的戾气,张开血盆大口,威风凛凛,向着敌人扑了过去。
Inside the golden bell, the Poison Dragon Ancestor’s aura continued to increase. Even its severed left hand began to regenerate visibly...
nà shēng shì , fǎng fú néng gòu sī pò yī qiè fáng yù 。
那声势,仿佛能够撕破一切防御。
Lin Xuan's face turned pale with shock. The thunder pearls actually had such extraordinary effects. Although the old monster admitted that his physical body would have to be abandoned after this battle, it wasn't good news for Lin Xuan.
rán ér jié guǒ , què ràng lín xuān shī wàng yǐ jí , léi shēng dà , yǔ diǎn xiǎo, bú shì mó yuán jiàn wēi lì tài ruò , ér shì nà fú bǎo de fáng yù , shí zài tài guò qiáng hàn le 。
然而结果,却让林轩失望以极,雷声大,雨点xiǎo,不是魔缘剑威力太弱,而是那符宝的防御,实在太过强悍了。
The Magic Bond Sword was useless too; using Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire or the Hundred Dragon Fangs would yield the same result.
jīn zhōng zhào nèi , dú lóng lǎo zǔ de qì xī , zài bù duàn zēng jiā , shèn zhì nà duàn diào de zuǒ shǒu , yě yǐ ròu yǎn kě jiàn de sù dù , chóng xīn shēng zhǎng ér chū ……
金钟罩内,毒龙老祖的气息,在不断增加,甚至那断掉的左手,也以ròu眼可见的速度,重新生长而出……
What should he do? Should he leave in disgrace?
lín xuān de liǎn sè, nán kàn dào jí chù , nà léi zhū , jū rán yǒu zhè yàng nì tiān de xiào guǒ , suī rán lǎo guài wù yě tǎn chéng guò , cǐ zhàn guò hòu ,ròu shēn bù dé bù fàng qì , bù guò duì zì jǐ lái shuō , zhè jué rán bú shì shén me hǎo xiāo xī 。
林轩的脸sè,难看到极处,那雷珠,居然有这样逆天的效果,虽然老怪物也坦承过,此战过后,ròu身不得不放弃,不过对自己来说,这决然不是什么好消息。
Lin Xuan was unwilling. This was a great opportunity to eliminate the Poison Dragon Ancestor, and if he allowed him to reincarnate again, it would be much harder to kill him.
mó yuán jiàn yě méi yǒu yòng tú , nà zài shī zhǎn huàn líng tiān huǒ huò zhě bǎi lóng zhī yá yě shì yī yàng de 。
魔缘剑也没有用途,那再施展幻灵天火或者百龙之牙也是一样的。
Moreover, with the chaos in the East Sea, no one knew where the old monster might flee.
zì jǐ gāi zěn me zuò , nán dào huī liū liū de lí kāi cǐ chù me ?
自己该怎么做,难道灰溜溜的离开此处么?
However, continuing to fight only made the talisman's defense even more troublesome. Without breaking through his defenses, all efforts would be in vain.
lín xuān bù gān xīn , zhè me hǎo de jī huì , dōu bù néng jiāng dú lóng lǎo zǔ miè chú , děng tā chóng xīn duó shě , zài xiǎng yào shā tā , nán dù jiù huì gèng dà 。
林轩不甘心,这么好的机会,都不能将毒龙老祖灭除,等他重新夺舍,再想要杀他,难度就会更大。
Facing this dilemma, Lin Xuan was at a loss for what to do.
hé kuàng dōng hǎi luàn jú yì qǐ , tiān zhī dào duì fāng huì táo dào nǎ lǐ 。
何况东海luàn局一起,天知道对方会逃到哪里。
Just then, an unexpected change occurred. A dragon-like voice sounded from his waist. Before he could react, a golden light shot out of the须臾 Bag on his waist and flashed before revealing a square-shaped treasure. It was golden-yellow in color with five dragons coiled around its edges and center.
kě jì xù dǎ , duì fāng de fú bǎo yòu shí zài nán chán le xiē , bù néng pò chú duì fāng de fáng yù , yī qiè nǔ lì dū huì fù zhū liú shuǐ dì 。
可继续打,对方的符宝又实在难缠了些,不能破除对方的防御,一切努力都会付诸流水地。
It looked like a jade seal used by secular emperors but was even more magnificent.
rú jīn zì jǐ suǒ miàn lín de , jiù shì zhè yàng liǎng nán de jié jú 。
如今自己所面临的,就是这样两难的结局。
Five Dragon Seal!
yīng gāi rú hé ?
应该如何?
Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned, then his face showed a playful expression.
yǐ lín xuān dòu fǎ jīng yàn zhī fēng fù , yī shí piàn kè , yě bù zhī dào gāi zěn me bàn le 。
以林轩斗法经验之丰富,一时片刻,也不知道该怎么办了。
Last time facing the Poison Dragon Ancestor's avatar, this treasure had also shown great power, almost turning danger into safety. It helped him turn defeat into victory and defeat a formidable enemy.
rán ér jiù zài zhè shí , yì biàn tū qǐ , yī zhèn lóng yín de shēng yīn cóng lín xuān de yāo jiān xiǎng qǐ , tā hái méi yǒu shén me dòng zuò , yī dào jīn guāng jiù cóng yāo jiān de xū yú dài zhōng fēi lüè ér chū , lüè yī shǎn shuò , xiàn chū yī sì sì fāng fāng de bǎo wù lái le , tōng tǐ zuò jīn huáng zhī sè, zài biān jiǎo yǔ zhōng yāng hái yǒu wǔ tiáo jīn lóng chán rào 。
然而就在这时,异变突起,一阵龙yín的声音从林轩的腰间响起,他还没有什么动作,一道金光就从腰间的须臾袋中飞掠而出,略一闪烁,现出一四四方方的宝物来了,通体做金黄之sè,在边角与中央还有五条金龙缠绕。
The reason for the Five Dragon Seal’s surprising transformation last time was that it absorbed a talisman from the demon realm. This time, with an innate divine treasure's talisman, what kind of miraculous effects would it have?
kàn shàng qù , yǒu jǐ fēn xiàng shì sú huáng dì suǒ yòng de yù xǐ , bù guò gèng jiā de huá měi guī lì 。
看上去,有几分像世俗皇帝所用的yù玺,不过更加的华美瑰丽。
Lin Xuan didn’t know and couldn’t figure out how to use it because its mysteries were too deep.
wǔ lóng xǐ !
五龙玺!
Nevertheless, he poured all his magical power into it regardless. The Five Dragon Seal’s glow intensified as it was forcefully sent forward.
lín xuān xiān shì yī dāi , suí hòu liǎn shàng jiù lù chū le wán wèi de biǎo qíng lái 。
林轩先是一呆,随后脸上就lù出了玩味的表情来。

Chapter 1893: The Talisman Treasure of an Innate Divine Treasure
Lin Xuan's eyes betrayed a hint of surprise. With his current abilities, this talisman treasure was nothing extraordinary. If he wished, he could even forge it himself.
