第一千九百零六章万千剑气
Chapter 1906: Ten Thousand Sword Qi
shí jiān jǐn pò ， sī háo dān gē bù dé ， lín xuān xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， yě kāi shǐ dòng shǒu le 。
时间紧迫，丝毫耽搁不得，林轩心中如此想着，也开始动手了。
Time was pressing, and there could be no delay. Lin Xuan's mind was set as he began to act.
xiù páo yī fú ， dà piàn de guāng xiá fēi lüè ér chū ， lüè yī pán xuán ， chū xiàn zài le tā shēn qián sān chǐ zhī chù ， suí hòu ， zhōu wéi de tiān dì yuán qì fēng yōng ér rù ， lín xuān yě jiē lián jǐ dào fǎ jué dǎ chū ， jiāng hún shēn de fǎ lì jì xù zhù rù 。
袖袍一拂，大片的光霞飞掠而出，略一盘旋，出现在了他身前三尺之处，随后，周围的天地元气蜂拥而入，林轩也接连几道法诀打出，将浑身的法力继续注入。
With a flick of his sleeve robe, a vast expanse of light霞 rushed out, swirling for a moment before appearing three feet in front of him. Surrounding元气 then surged into the space, and several techniques were cast by Lin Xuan, pouring more power into his body.
nà guāng xiá jiān róng bìng shōu yǐ hòu ， huà wèi le yí gè liǎng yí tài jí tú 。
那光霞兼容并收以后，化为了一个两仪太极图。
The light霞 transformed into a Taiji diagram, with a diameter of seven or eight zhang. It was mysterious and profound, with subtle符文 emanating from its surface, exuding an ancient and mystical aura.
zhí jìng zú yǒu qī bā zhàng yú ， kàn shàng qù xuán miào wú bǐ ， zài tài jí tú de biǎo miàn ， hái yǒu yī xiē xuán miào de fú wén pēn bó ， zài qí zhōu wéi ruò yǐn ruò xiàn zhe ， yī gǔ cāng liáng gǔ piáo de shén mì qì xī pèi rán ér chū 。
直径足有七八丈余，看上去玄妙无比，在太极图的表面，还有一些玄妙的符文喷薄，在其周围若隐若现着，一股苍凉古朴的神秘气息沛然而出。
Lin Xuan's expression turned serious as he pointed a finger forward.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng yě suí zhī yán sù ， yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn chū 。
林轩的表情也随之严肃，一指向前点出。
"Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Source!"
“ wàn liú guī zōng ！”
“万流归宗！”
This was a technique he had created during his seclusion, using sword qi to injure enemies without relying on treasures. Its power was incomparable.
zhè shì tā bì guān qī jiān ， zì chuàng de zhāo shù ， bù shǐ yòng bǎo wù ， yǐ jiàn qì shāng dí ， tóng yàng de wēi lì wú pǐ 。
这是他闭关期间，自创的招数，不使用宝物，以剑气伤敌，同样的威力无匹。
From the Taiji diagram, different-colored light columns shot out.
cóng nà tài jí tú zhōng ， pēn chū bù tóng yán è de guāng zhù 。
从那太极图中，喷出不同颜è的光柱。
Red represented fire.
Yellow signified earth.
...
hóng è de shì huǒ 。
红è的是火。
Different colors indicated different elements.
huáng è de wèi tǔ 。
黄è的为土。
Each contained metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—none were missing.
……
……
As these light columns decomposed visibly, sword qi began to emerge.
yán è bù tóng ， shuō míng shǔ yě shì jiǒng yì de 。
颜è不同，说明属也是迥异的。
Depending on their thickness, each light column transformed into dozens or even hundreds of sword qi.
lǐ miàn bāo hán le jīn mù shuǐ huǒ tǔ ， yí gè bù luò 。
里面包含了金木水火土，一个不落。
The lengths varied greatly. The largest was over seven zhang, while the smallest resembled a dagger.
suí hòu nà xiē guāng zhù ， yǐ yǎn kě jiàn de sù dù fēn jiě diào le 。
随后那些光柱，以眼可见的速度分解掉了。
Even with the gathered essence qi, Old Demon Tyrant Zhen felt shaken. Even at his peak, he would find it difficult to withstand this attack.
qǔ ér dài zhī de ， shì yī dào dào jiàn qì fú xiàn ér chū 。
取而代之的，是一道道剑气浮现而出。
Lin Xuan's youth had formidable strength even without taking advantage of the situation. This thought made him feel somewhat fearful.
měi yī dào guāng zhù ， gēn jù cū xì bù yī ， dōu huà wèi le jǐ shí zhì shù bǎi dào bù děng de jiàn qì 。
每一道光柱，根据粗细不一，都化为了几十至数百道不等的剑气。
At that moment, Lin Xuan paid no mind to what Old Demon Tyrant Zhen was thinking. With a snap of his fingers, tens of thousands of sword qi surged forward.
nà xiē jiàn qì cháng duǎn yě shì jiǒng yì ， zuì dà de ， qī bā zhàng yǒu yú ， duǎn de yǔ yī bǐng bǐ shǒu xiàng shì 。
那些剑气长短也是迥异，最大的，七八丈有余，短的与一柄匕首相似。
Lin Xuan closed his eyes and released his powerful divine consciousness fully. Unlike in combat, where he could simply slash and cut, here he needed meticulous control.
rán ér gǎn shòu zhe lǐ miàn suǒ huì jù de líng qì ， dú lóng lǎo zǔ yě hài rán shī zì jǐ jiù suàn quán shèng zhī shí ， xiǎng yào jiē xià zhè gōng jī yě bù róng yì 。
然而感受着里面所汇聚的灵气，毒龙老祖也骇然失自己就算全盛之时，想要接下这攻击也不容易。
A moment's distraction could destroy the precious crystal ore. Lin Xuan aimed to avoid such issues.
lín xuān zhè xiǎo zi ， jiù suàn bù chèn huǒ dǎ jié ， shí lì yě néng yǔ xuán xiāng bǐ ， niàn jí zhì cǐ ， tā bù yóu de yǒu xiē jīng jù 。
林轩这小子，就算不趁火打劫，实力也能与玄相比，念及至此，他不由得有些惊惧。
Speaking of luck, this vein was exceptionally easy to mine.
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， lín xuān què méi yǒu xīn qíng qù guǎn tā xiǎng shén me ， zuǒ shǒu tái qǐ ， yí gè xiǎng zhǐ ， nà shǔ yǐ wàn jì de jiàn qì jiù cháo zhe qián fāng fēng yōng ér qǐ 。
此时此刻，林轩却没有心情去管他想什么，左手抬起，一个响指，那数以万计的剑气就朝着前方蜂拥而起。
Otherwise, encountering a vein with extreme impurities would make it impossible for even a well-staffed team to extract anything in a short time.
lín xuān zé bì shàng shuāng mù ， jiāng qiáng dà de shén shí quán lì fàng chū ， zhè yǔ duì dí shí bù tóng ， miàn duì chóu dí ， jiàn qì zhǐ yào héng kǎn shù pī jiù kě yǐ 。
林轩则闭上双目，将强大的神识全力放出，这与对敌时不同，面对仇敌，剑气只要横砍竖劈就可以。
Clanging sounds filled his ears as one by one, precious crystal ore emerged from the embedded stone walls.
yǎn qián ， què xū yào jīng wēi xì zhì de kòng 。
眼前，却需要jīng微细致的控。
With a wave of his right hand, a storage bag flew out and was raised into the air. The bag's mouth opened, and streams of green霞 spread outwards, sweeping towards all sides...
yī bù liú shén ， jiù yǒu kě néng huǐ le jí pǐn jīng shí de yuán kuàng fèi shì bú duì de ， lín xuān yào jǐn liàng bì miǎn chū xiàn zhè yàng de wèn tí 。
一不留神，就有可能毁了极品晶石的原矿费是不对的，林轩要尽量避免出现这样的问题。
Soon, the entire storage bag was filled. Lin Xuan quickly stuffed it back onto his waist.
shuō qǐ lái ， yě suàn yùn qì hǎo 。
说起来，也算运气好。
According to spatial laws, storage bags cannot contain other storage bags inside them.
yǎn qián de kuàng mài ， shǔ yú shí fēn róng yì kāi cǎi 。
眼前的矿脉，属于十分容易开采。
However, a higher-level storage bag could hold another one for a moment because it contained more advanced principles.
fǒu zé yù jiàn nà zhǒng zá zhì jí duō de kuàng mài ， jiù suàn rén shǒu chōng zú ， duǎn shí jiān nèi ， yě gēn běn bù kě néng kāi cǎi 。
否则遇见那种杂质极多的矿脉，就算人手充足，短时间内，也根本不可能开采。
First, he stored the crystals in the storage bag, then returned it to his waist, saving space significantly.
pīng pīng pāng pāng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yī lì lì jí pǐn jīng shí cóng xiāng qiàn de shí bì zhōng ， bèi wā jué chū lái 。
乒乒乓乓的声音传入耳朵，一粒粒极品晶石从镶嵌的石壁中，被挖掘出来。
Old Demon Tyrant Zhen was dumbfounded. Could this youth possess a precious storage item?
lín xuān yòu shǒu yī fú ， yí gè chǔ wù dài fēi lüè ér chū ， bèi tā téng kōng jì qǐ ， suí hòu dài kǒu sōng kāi ， yī dào dào de qīng xiá fēi lüè chū lái ， cháo zhe sì zhōu xí juǎn ……
林轩右手一拂，一个储物袋飞掠而出，被他腾空祭起，随后袋口松开，一道道的青霞飞掠出来，朝着四周席卷……
He had only heard of such things. The old monster realized that he could no longer fully understand Lin Xuan.
hěn kuài ， zhěng gè chǔ wù dài jiù bèi tián mǎn ， lín xuān dòng zuò má lì de jiāng tā sāi huí dào le yāo jiān 。
很快，整个储物袋就被填满，林轩动作麻利的将牠塞回到了腰间。
Cutting through the vein with sword light and filling the crystals back in was not complicated, but it wasn't done by just one person or one sword.
gēn jù kōng jiān fǎ zé ， chǔ wù dài lǐ miàn shì bù néng zhuāng chǔ wù dài de 。
根据空间法则，储物袋里面是不能装储物袋的。
Countless colorful sword qi filled the sky—over ten thousand. This was terrifying. While using sword qi was easier than using a treasure, having so many required an astonishing amount of divine consciousness. Even Old Demon Tyrant Zhen doubted he could match Lin Xuan.
rán ér xū yú dài kě yǐ ， yīn wèi tā yùn hán de fǎ zé gèng gāo jí 。
然而须臾袋可以，因为牠蕴含的法则更高级。
His eyes were filled with complex emotions as his confidence wavered. Could he really fight against Lin Xuan after removing the soul-sealing technique and finding a body to possess?
xiān jiāng jīng shí zhuāng zài chǔ wù dài lǐ ， zài jiāng chǔ wù dài fàng huí yāo jiān ， zhè yàng jiù kě yǐ dà dà jié shěng xū yú dài de kōng jiān 。
先将晶石装在储物袋里，再将储物袋放回腰间，这样就可以大大节省须臾袋的空间。
The old monster was in turmoil, realizing that Lin Xuan was far more powerful than he had imagined.
dú lóng lǎo zǔ kàn dé chēng mù jié shé ， nán dào zhè xiǎo zi hái yōng yǒu xū yú bǎo wù ？
毒龙老祖看得瞠目结舌，难道这小子还拥有须臾宝物？
Lin Xuan paid no mind to Old Demon Tyrant Zhen's thoughts. All his energy was focused on mining the crystals while controlling so many sword qi—impossible under normal circumstances.
nà yàng de dōng xī tā yě jǐn jǐn shì tīng shuō ， lǎo guài wù fā jué ， zì jǐ yuè lái yuè kàn bù tòu lín xuān le 。
那样的东西他也仅仅是听说，老怪物发觉，自己越来越看不透林轩了。
Time passed quickly. Before long, an hour had gone by.
yòng jiàn guāng qiē gē kuàng mài ， dé dào de jīng shí zài tián zhuāng qǐ lái ， zhěng gè guò chéng shuō qǐ lái bìng bù fán fù ， rán ér zhù yì ， lín xuān zòng de bìng fēi yī rén yī jiàn 。
用剑光切割矿脉，得到的晶石再填装起来，整个过程说起来并不繁复，然而注意，林轩纵的并非一人一剑。
The vein extended only a dozen miles and wasn't large at all; it could even be considered miniature.
fàng yǎn wàng qù ， màn tiān dōu shì wǔ yán liù è de jiàn qì ， zú yǒu shù wàn zhī yú ， zhè shì duō me kǒng bù de zuò lì ， suī rán zòng jiàn qì yuǎn bǐ fǎ bǎo róng yì ， dàn shù liàng duō dào rú cǐ dì bù ， xū yào de shén shí ， yě lìng rén chēng mù jié shé ， zhì shǎo dú lóng lǎo zǔ ， zì rèn biàn shì shā le tā ， yě zuò bú dào 。
放眼望去，漫天都是五颜六è的剑气，足有数万之余，这是多么恐怖的作力，虽然纵剑气远比法宝容易，但数量多到如此地步，需要的神识，也令人瞠目结舌，至少毒龙老祖，自认便是杀了他，也做不到。
This was not strange. Generally, veins of top-grade crystal were very small, and having one over ten miles was already impressive.
tā de yǎn shén fù zá yǐ jí ， xìn xīn yě bù yóu de yǒu xiē dòng yáo le ， jiù suàn zì jǐ néng gòu jiě chú lín xuān shī jiā zài zì jǐ shēn shàng de jìn hún shù ， bìng qiě zhǎo dào yí gè qū tǐ chóng xīn duó shě ， shì fǒu jiù yǒu néng lì yǔ duì fāng yī zhàn le ？
他的眼神复杂以极，信心也不由得有些动摇了，就算自己能够解除林轩施加在自己身上的禁魂术，并且找到一个躯体重新夺舍，是否就有能力与对方一战了？
Lin Xuan's actions were swift. Already, a third of the vein had been mined by him.
lǎo guài wù xīn zhōng dǎ gǔ 。
老怪物心中打鼓。
Suddenly, an angry shout rang out, accompanied by terrifying spiritual pressure that appeared on the horizon, rolling towards them like a storm.
lín xuān yuǎn bǐ tā xiǎng xiàng de qiáng dà dé duō 。
林轩远比他想象的强大得多。
Lin Xuan's expression changed.
lín xuān zhè shí hòu ， què méi yǒu qù guǎn dú lóng lǎo zǔ zài xiǎng shén me ， tā suǒ yǒu de jīng lì ， dōu zài qiē gē kuàng shí ， tóng shí zòng nà me duō dào jiàn qì ， nán dù kě xiǎng ér zhī 。
林轩这时候，却没有去管毒龙老祖在想什么，他所有的jīng力，都在切割矿石，同时纵那么多道剑气，难度可想而知。
A cultivator of the Profound Stage!
shí guāng fēi sù liú shì ， bù zhī bù jué ， jiù guò qù le yī dùn fàn de gōng fu 。
时光飞速流逝，不知不觉，就过去了一顿饭的功夫。
And not just at the initial stage; it was an old monster. The feeling was no weaker than that of the Law Enforcement Elders in the Holy City. Could this be...
zhè zhǒng kuàng mài mián yán bù guò shí yú lǐ ， bìng bù suàn dà ， shèn zhì kě yǐ shuō ， shì wēi xíng de nà zhǒng 。
这种矿脉绵延不过十余里，并不算大，甚至可以说，是微型的那种。
The answer came quickly as a startling light appeared on the horizon, flying closer with incredible speed.
bù guò méi yǒu shén me hào qí guài de 。
不过没有什么好奇怪的。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he shouted loudly, his hands moving like butterflies, casting several techniques forward.
jí pǐn jīng shí de kuàng mài ， yì bān lái shuō ， dōu shì hěn wēi xiǎo de ， néng yǒu shí yú lǐ ， yǐ jīng bù cuò 。
极品晶石的矿脉，一般来说，都是很微小的，能有十余里，已经不错。
"Quickly!"
lín xuān de dòng zuò jí wéi xùn sù ， yǎn qián de kuàng mài ， yǐ yǒu sān fēn zhī yī ， bèi tā kāi cǎi chū lái 。
林轩的动作极为迅速，眼前的矿脉，已有三分之一，被他开采出来。
With his loud shout, the tens of thousands of sword qi changed direction. They stopped cutting and converged towards the center, transforming into patches of light霞 while buzzing loudly. The sight was terrifying as they surged towards the approaching figure.
rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ， yī zhèn nù hè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì ， kě pà de líng yā ， zài tiān biān chū xiàn le ， bìng qiě rú tóng hǎi nù tāo yì bān ， cháo zhe zhè biān gǔn gǔn ér lái 。
然而就在这时，一阵怒喝声传入耳朵，与之伴随的是，可怕的灵压，在天边出现了，并且如同海怒涛一般，朝着这边滚滚而来。
Strike first; suffer later. Lin Xuan had some guesses about the identity of the newcomer but knew that it didn't matter now. With crystal ore veins here, any cultivator must be an enemy.
lín xuān liǎn è yī biàn 。
林轩脸è一变。
Eliminate them first!
xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ！
玄期修仙者！
Lin Xuan's choice was correct. The cultivation world was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. In the face of such treasures, who would expect to negotiate with the newcomer?
ér qiě hái bú shì chū qī de lǎo guài wù 。
而且还不是初期的老怪物。
Reasoning with a cultivator was useless; power determined everything.
nà zhǒng gǎn jué ， bǐ qǐ shèng chéng zhí fǎ zhǎng lǎo zhǐ qiáng bù ruò ， nán dào shuō ……
那种感觉，比起圣城执法长老只强不弱，难道说……
Seeing this terrifying light attack, Old Demon Tyrant Zhen sucked in a cold breath.
dá àn hěn kuài jiē xiǎo le ， bàn suí zhe lì shēng nù hè ， yī dào jīng hóng zài tiān biān chū xiàn le ， yóu yuǎn jí jìn ， yǐ cháng rén nán yǐ qǐ jí de sù dù ， fēi kuài de gǎn dào le cǐ chù 。
答案很快揭晓了，伴随着厉声怒喝，一道惊虹在天边出现了，由远及近，以常人难以企及的速度，飞快的赶到了此处。
Just used for mining before, it now revealed its full potential as an attack. A mere Separation Period cultivator could not be so formidable.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， yī shēng dà hē ， shuāng shǒu rú chuān huā hú dié yì bān huī wǔ ， jiē lián jǐ dào fǎ jué xiàng qián diǎn chū 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，一声大喝，双手如穿花蝴蝶一般挥舞，接连几道法诀向前点出。
While challenges across levels were legendary, he had never taken them seriously. Legends and reality couldn't be compared.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
Even forced to sign the master-servant blood pact by Lin Xuan, Old Demon Tyrant Zhen was不服气. He represented a far different comparison of true strength than what it seemed.
suí zhe tā yī shēng bào hē ， nà shǔ yǐ wàn jì de jiàn qì ， fāng xiàng yī gǎi ， tíng zhǐ le qiē gē ， zhuǎn ér wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù ， huà wèi piàn piàn guāng xiá ， tóng shí wēng míng shēng dà zuò ， kàn shàng qù ， shēng shì shí zài shì hài rén yǐ jí ， yī ** de cháo zhe lái rén kuáng juǎn ér qù 。
随着他一声暴喝，那数以万计的剑气，方向一改，停止了切割，转而往中间一聚，化为片片光霞，同时嗡鸣声大做，看上去，声势实在是骇人以极，一**的朝着来人狂卷而去。
However, his confidence wavered at this moment. Without any treasures, Lin Xuan had unleashed such a terrifying technique. Even at his peak, he would have to temporarily avoid the attack. Such a cultivator having the ability for cross-level challenges was not surprising.
Chapter 1906: Ten Thousand Sword Qi
Time was pressing, and there could be no delay. Lin Xuan's mind was set as he began to act.
With a flick of his sleeve robe, a vast expanse of light霞 rushed out, swirling for a moment before appearing three feet in front of him. Surrounding元气 then surged into the space, and several techniques were cast by Lin Xuan, pouring more power into his body.

...
Different colors indicated different elements.
Each contained metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—none were missing.
As these light columns decomposed visibly, sword qi began to emerge.
Depending on their thickness, each light column transformed into dozens or even hundreds of sword qi.
The lengths varied greatly. The largest was over seven zhang, while the smallest resembled a dagger.
