“ nǐ zì biàn hǎo le 。”
“你自便好了。”
"Go ahead."
“ lín xuān bǎi le bǎi shǒu ， zì rán méi yǒu bì yào qù zuò wǎn liú 。
“林轩摆了摆手，自然没有必要去做挽留。
Lin Xuan waved his hand. There was no need to try and retain him.
“ duō xiè shī zǔ 。”
“多谢师祖。”
"Thank you, Grandmaster."
gōng zhuāng měi fù liǎn rèn yī lǐ ， suí hòu huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng xiàng yuǎn chù fēi qù ， zhōu wéi dùn shí jìng mì le xià qù ， nà wá wá liǎn de shào nǚ dī méi shùn mù dì zhàn zài yuán dì ， lián dà qì dōu bù gǎn chū ， dòng xuán jí bié de zǔ shī jià lín cǐ chù ， zhe shí ràng tā yǒu xiē chéng huáng chéng kǒng le 。
宫装美妇敛衽一礼，随后化为一道惊虹像远处飞去，周围顿时静谧了下去，那娃娃脸的少女低眉顺目的站在原地，连大气都不敢出，洞玄级别的祖师驾临此处，着实让她有些诚惶诚恐了。
The woman in a court dress bowed respectfully before transforming into a streak of light that flew off towards the distance. The surroundings soon fell silent as the girl with the baby face stood still, her head lowered, not daring to breathe. A grandmaster of the Core Formation realm had arrived here, and she felt quite intimidated.
lín xuān yáo le yáo tóu ， dào bù nán cāi cè cǐ nǚ xīn zhōng zài xiǎng shén me ， bì jìng tā yě shì cóng dī jiē xiū shì yí bù bù zǒu guò ， zhòu rán kàn jiàn děng jí rú cǐ gāo de qián bèi xiū xiān zhě ， xīn zhōng dāng rán shì jì huáng kǒng yòu qǐ pàn le 。
林轩摇了摇头，倒不难猜测此女心中在想什么，毕竟他也是从低阶修士一步步走过，骤然看见等级如此高的前辈修仙者，心中当然是既惶恐又企盼了。
Lin Xuan shook his head. He could easily guess what was going through her mind, for he too had once been a low-rank cultivator. Suddenly seeing such an advanced senior cultivator made him both fearful and eager to learn more.
dǎ yí gè bǐ shá ， jiǎ rú zhè shí hòu zhòu rán zǎo chū yī míng dù jié jí bié de lǎo guài wù ， zì jǐ de xīn qíng kǒng pà yě jiù yǔ cǐ nǚ chà bu duō 。
打一个比啥，假如这时候骤然早出一名渡劫级别的老怪物，自己的心情恐怕也就与此女差不多。
To put it simply, if a high-level old monster suddenly appeared now, his feelings would be similar to hers.
“ qián miàn dài lù ， nǐ bù yòng huáng kǒng ， zhǐ yào hǎo hǎo tīng cóng lín mǒu de fēn fù ， wǒ bú huì wéi nán nǐ de ， ér qiě hái huì gěi nǐ yī xiē hǎo chù 。” lín xuān shén sè dàn rán de kāi kǒu le 。
“前面带路，你不用惶恐，只要好好听从林某的吩咐，我不会为难你的，而且还会给你一些好处。”林轩神色淡然的开口了。
"Lead the way in front of me. You needn't be afraid; just follow my instructions carefully, and I won't make things difficult for you. In fact, there will be some benefits for you." Lin Xuan said calmly.
“ shì ， duō xiè shī zǔ 。”
“是，多谢师祖。”
"Yes, thank you, Grandmaster."
nà shào nǚ de liǎn shàng lù chū dà xǐ zhī sè ， yào xiǎo de ， duì fāng kě shì dòng xuán jí bié de xiū xiān zhě ， suí biàn ná chū yī jiàn bǎo wù ， dōu zú gòu zì jǐ shòu yòng bù jìn le 。
那少女的脸上露出大喜之色，要晓得，对方可是洞玄级别的修仙者，随便拿出一件宝物，都足够自己受用不尽了。
The girl's face lit up with joy. After all, the other party was a Core Formation realm cultivator. Even if they just took out one treasure item, it would be enough to last her a lifetime.
yú shì máng xíng le yī lǐ ， rán hòu dài zhe lín xuān xiàng zǔ shī cí táng zǒu qù 。
于是忙行了一礼，然后带着林轩像祖师祠堂走去。
She hurriedly bowed and led Lin Xuan towards the ancestral hall of the grandmasters.
ér lín xuān lái zhè lǐ , dāng rán yě shì yǒu mù dì 。
而林轩来这里,当然也是有目的。
Lin Xuan had his own purpose for coming here as well.
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhèn ， yǐ qián zài rén jiè de shí hòu ， lín xuān jiù xiǎo de ， bù guò nà shí hòu ， bìng méi yǒu zài yì ， zhǐ shì jué de qí wēi lì wú yǔ lún bǐ ， rán ér shì yì shí yí ， zài líng jiè dōng hǎi de hǎi dǐ fèi xū ， lín xuān fā xiàn le mò yuè zú de yí jì 。
九宫须臾剑阵，以前在人界的时候，林轩就晓得，不过那时候，并没有在意，只是觉得其威力无与伦比，然而事易时移，在灵界东海的海底废墟，林轩发现了墨月族的遗迹。
The Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array was something he knew about from when he was in the mortal realm. Back then, he didn't pay much attention to it, only thinking that it was a good array but not necessary for cultivation. However, later on, he changed his mind. The reason? He had obtained the middle section of the Mo Yue Clan's treasure from the Hundred Toxin Divine Lord, which turned out to be the Core Formation realm part of this array. This meant he now possessed half of the Mo Yue Immortal Technique, making it much more feasible for him to cultivate.
qí tā de bǎo wù zàn qiě bù tí ， nà mò yuè tiān wū jué kě shì jīng shēn bó dà ， lián jiàn duō shí guǎng de lín xuān yě wèi zhī zhé fú ， jiāng qí zuò wéi zì jǐ de zhǔ xiū gōng fǎ 。
其他的宝物暂且不提，那墨月天巫诀可是精深博大，连见多识广的林轩也为之折服，将其作为自己的主修功法。
Who knew how long it would take before he could advance to the Spirit Separation realm?
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhèn ， zhèng shì lǐ miàn suǒ tí dào de běn mìng bǎo wù ， xuán miào yǐ jí ， rán ér dāng nián dì yī cì kàn jiàn de shí hòu ， què ràng lín xuān dà jīng shī sè ， zěn me yǔ tiān yá hǎi gé hù pài dà zhèn de míng zì shì yī mú yī yàng de ， zhè zhōng jiān ， jiū jìng shì qiǎo hé ， hái shì yǒu shén me bù wéi rén zhī de lián xì ？
九宫须臾剑阵，正是里面所提到的本命宝物，玄妙以极，然而当年第一次看见的时候，却让林轩大惊失色，怎么与天涯海阁护派大阵的名字是一模一样的，这中间，究竟是巧合，还是有什么不为人知的联系？
But Lin Xuan was a man who planned his moves carefully. Even though he didn't need to worry about the rest of the cultivation techniques now, early preparation was always better.
dāng nián zài líng jiè de shí hòu ， wèi zhè ge wèn tí ， lín xuān jiù sī liáng le hǎo jiǔ 。
当年在灵界的时候，为这个问题，林轩就思量了好久。
Especially when there was an opportunity, one shouldn't let it slip away.
bù guò nà shí hòu ， xiǎng yě shì bái xiǎng ， yīn wèi tiān dì fǎ zé ， zì jǐ gēn běn jiù bù tài kě néng chóng xīn huí dào rén jiè de , nǎ xiǎo de ， zhè bù kě néng de mèng xiǎng rú jīn hái zhēn shí xiàn le 。
不过那时候，想也是白想，因为天地法则，自己根本就不太可能重新回到人界的,哪晓得，这不可能的梦想如今还真实现了。
If the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array in the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion truly had anything to do with the Mo Yue Clan, perhaps there would be clues regarding the Mo Yue Immortal Technique through sacrifice.
jì rán shàng tiān gěi le zhè ge jī huì , lín xuān dāng rán yào jiāng liǎng zhě de guān xì chà qīng chǔ ， suǒ wèi de tiān yá hǎi gé ， huì bú huì yǔ mò yuè zú yǒu shén me guān xì ne ？
既然上天给了这个机会,林轩当然要将两者的关系差清楚，所谓的天涯海阁，会不会与墨月族有什么关系呢？
---
lín xuān xún gēn jiū dǐ ， kě bù jǐn jǐn shì yīn wèi hào qí ， ér shì yóu yú tā ná dào de mò yuè tiān wū jué ， bìng bú shì wán zhěng dì 。
林轩寻根究底，可不仅仅是因为好奇，而是由于他拿到的墨月天巫诀，并不是完整地。
He didn't need to tell Liu Ying and the others about this. It was better to rely on himself than to ask for help. Lin Xuan decided to go to the ancestral hall himself to seek out any clues.
cǐ gōng fǎ què shí xuán miào ， nǎi shì mò yuè zú de zhèn zú zhī bǎo ， rán ér zì jǐ zài hǎi dǐ yí jì suǒ de dào de zhǐ huán ， jǐn jì zǎi le cǐ gōng fǎ de sì fēn zhī yī 。
此功法确实玄妙，乃是墨月族的镇族之宝，然而自己在海底遗迹所得到的指环，仅记载了此功法的四分之一。
Following the lead of that girl with the baby face, they encountered no obstacles as they quickly arrived at the ancestral hall.
mò yuè tiān wū jué fēn wéi shàng piān 、 zhōng piān 、 xià piān yǐ jí fēi shēng piān sì zhāng 。
墨月天巫诀分为上篇、中篇、下篇以及飞升篇四章。
Although it was called an ancestral hall, it wasn't a large hall but rather a place where all cultivators who reached the婴灵 realm from each generation could be enshrined. However, their treatment varied depending on their rank.
fēn bié duì yìng lí hé 、 dòng xuán 、 fēn shén 、 dù jié sì gè jìng jiè 。
分别对应离合、洞玄、分神、渡劫四个境界。
The元婴 cultivators of each generation were grouped together like in a family's ancestral hall, while those at the离合 realm had individual shrines and received more respect and offerings.
zhǐ huán zhōng jì zǎi de ， jǐn jǐn shì shàng piān ér yǐ 。
指环中记载的，仅仅是上篇而已。
Following the girl's lead, Lin Xuan entered a beautifully decorated room.
yuán běn lín xuān dōu yǐ jīng dǎ suàn fàng qì ， cǐ gōng fǎ zài hǎo ， yě méi yǒu shén me xiū xíng de bì yào 。 bù guò hòu lái tā yòu gǎi biàn le zhǔ yì ， wú tā ， cóng bǎi dú shén jūn nà lǐ dé dào de mò yuè zú zhèn zú zhī bǎo ， yuán lái jiù shì cǐ gōng fǎ de zhōng piān ， rú cǐ yī lái ， zì jǐ jiù yǒu le mò yuè tiān wū jué de yí bàn ， xiāng duì lái shuō ， néng gòu xiū liàn de kě xíng xìng yě jiù dà wèi zēng jiā le 。
原本林轩都已经打算放弃，此功法再好，也没有什么修行的必要。不过后来他又改变了主意，无他，从百毒神君那里得到的墨月族镇族之宝，原来就是此功法的中篇，如此一来，自己就有了墨月天巫诀的一半，相对来说，能够修炼的可行性也就大为增加了。
Once inside, he was momentarily stunned before his expression turned to one of bemusement. The shrine enshrined here was him!
bì jìng tiān xiǎo de ， zì jǐ hái yào duō jiǔ cái néng jìn jiē dào fēn shén qī ne ？
毕竟天晓得，自己还要多久才能进阶到分神期呢？
On the golden pedestal were tablets listing his name: Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion, 2379th Supreme Grandmaster Lin Xuan. Hanging on the wall behind it was a scroll painting in ink and wash depicting his likeness. His appearance and demeanor were vividly portrayed.
bù guò lín xuān de xìng gé ， shì móu dìng ér hòu dòng ， jǐn guǎn xiàn zài hái bù yòng qù fán nǎo hòu miàn de gōng fǎ ， dàn zǎo zuò dǎ suàn ， kěn dìng shì méi cuò 。
不过林轩的性格，是谋定而后动，尽管现在还不用去烦恼后面的功法，但早作打算，肯定是没错。
"Why did you bring me here?"
tè bié shì yǒu jī huì ， nà jiù gèng bù kě yǐ fàng guò 。
特别是有机会，那就更不可以放过。
Lin Xuan had long known that the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion enshrined his spirit tablet, but seeing it firsthand still felt strange.
tiān yá hǎi gé de jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhèn ， rú guǒ zhēn yǔ mò yuè zú yǒu guān de huà ， nà tōng guò xī ， huì bú huì yǒu mò yuè tiān wū jué de xiàn suǒ 。
天涯海阁的九宫须臾剑阵，如果真与墨月族有关的话，那通过牺，会不会有墨月天巫诀的线索。
"Of course not, Grandmaster, I beg your forgiveness," the girl was shocked and quickly knelt down. However, she also looked a bit委屈: "But you didn't say where we were going, so I thought..."
dāng rán zhè yī qiè ， tā shì méi yǒu bì yào duì liú yíng tā men shuō de ， qiú rén bù rú qiú jǐ ， lín xuān zì jǐ pǎo dào zǔ shī cí táng ， lái xún zhǎo xiàn suǒ 。
当然这一切，他是没有必要对刘莹她们说的，求人不如求己，林轩自己跑到祖师祠堂，来寻找线索。
Lin Xuan scratched his head; he had made a mistake. If he hadn't been clear, anyone would have brought him here.
yóu nà míng wá wá liǎn de shào nǚ lǐng lù ， zhōng jiān zì rán méi yǒu yù jiàn fēn háo zǔ gé ， hěn kuài jiù lái dào zǔ shī cí táng le 。
由那名娃娃脸的少女领路，中间自然没有遇见分毫阻隔，很快就来到祖师祠堂了。
"I'm going to the spirit tablet of Fairy Tian Lan."
shuō shì cí táng ， qí shí què bìng bú shì yí gè dà de tīng táng ， tiān yá hǎi gé lì dài xiū shì ， zhǐ yào néng gòu dá dào yuán yīng qī de ， jiù dōu kě yǐ gòng fèng zài zhè lǐ 。
说是祠堂，其实却并不是一个大的厅堂，天涯海阁历代修士，只要能够达到元婴期的，就都可以供奉在这里。
"Tian Lan Fairy?" The girl tilted her head, momentarily unable to recall which grandmaster it was.
dāng rán ， suǒ xiǎng shòu de dài yù ， shì yǒu chā bié dì 。
当然，所享受的待遇，是有差别地。
After all, the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion had been passed down from ancient times and now had over 2300 generations. Countless元婴 and离合 cultivators had lived through these years; even if a cultivator had an excellent memory, how could she remember every single ancestor?
měi yí dài de yuán yīng xiū shì ， shì jí zhōng zài yì qǐ ， jiù xiàng fán rén dà jiā zú de cí táng shì yī yàng dì ， ér lí hé jí bié de xiū xiān zhě ， zé měi yī wèi ， dōu yǒu dān dú de shén táng gòng fèng , kě yǐ xiǎng shòu gèng duō de chóng jìng yǔ xiāng huǒ 。
每一代的元婴修士，是集中在一起，就像凡人大家族的祠堂是一样地，而离合级别的修仙者，则每一位，都有单独的神堂供奉,可以享受更多的崇敬与香火。
"Tian Lan Fairy was the nineteenth-generation grandmaster and a cultivator of the 离合 realm," Lin Xuan sighed and gave her some guidance.
gēn zhe nà wá wá liǎn shào nǚ de jiǎo bù ， lín xuān lái dào yī měi lún měi huàn de fáng jiān zhōng 。
跟着那娃娃脸少女的脚步，林轩来到一美轮美奂的房间中。
"Oh, I understand now."
jìn qù yǐ hòu ， què xiān shì yī dāi ， suí hòu biǎo qíng biàn dé kū xiào bù dé qǐ lái 。 wú tā ， fáng jiān zhōng gòng fèng de jū rán shì zì jǐ a 。
进去以后，却先是一呆，随后表情变得哭笑不得起来。无他，房间中供奉的居然是自己啊。
The girl's face lit up. With such detailed information, there was no reason to get lost. She immediately led Lin Xuan towards the third level.
zhǐ jiàn shén jīn shàng bǎi fàng de líng wèi chóu zhe , tiān yá hǎi gé ， dì liǎng qiān sān bǎi qī shí jiǔ dài tài shàng zhǎng lǎo lín xuān ， hòu miàn guà zhe yī fú juàn zhóu ， shuǐ mò dān qīng ， zhèng shì zì jǐ de huà xiàng ， bù lùn róng mào hái shì shén yùn ， dōu xǔ xǔ rú shēng yǐ jí 。
只见神金上摆放的灵位筹着,天涯海阁，第两千三百七十九代太上长老林轩，后面挂着一幅卷轴，水墨丹青，正是自己的画像，不论容貌还是神韵，都栩栩如生以极。
They passed through winding corridors until they arrived at a small courtyard that looked nothing like an enshrined spirit tablet place but rather like the private chamber of a noblewoman.
“ nǐ zěn me dài wǒ lái zhè lǐ ？、。
“你怎么带我来这里？、。
"Grandmaster, this is where it is."
lín xuān suī rán zǎo jiù xiǎo de ， tiān yá hǎi gé gòng fèng zhe zì jǐ de líng wèi ， dàn zhēn kàn jiàn de yī kè ， hái shì gǎn jué yǒu diǎn guài guài de 。
林轩虽然早就晓得，天涯海阁供奉着自己的灵位，但真看见的一刻，还是感觉有点怪怪的。
"Hmm, stay outside and don't go in."
“ bú shì me ， shī zǔ shù zuì 。” shào nǚ dà jīng shī sè ， lián máng guì xià lái le ， kě liǎn shàng yòu dài zhe jǐ fēn wěi qū zhī sè ：“ kě nín yòu méi yǒu shuō yào qù hé chù ， gù ér dì zǐ yǐ wéi …
“不是么，师祖恕罪。”少女大惊失色，连忙跪下来了，可脸上又带着几分委屈之色：“可您又没有说要去何处，故而弟子以为…
"Yes, Grandmaster."
lín xuān tīng le ， rěn bú zhù náo le náo tóu ， hái zhēn shì zì jǐ de cuò ， rú guǒ bù shuō qīng chǔ ， shì gè rén ， dōu hěn róng yì jiāng zì jǐ dài dào cǐ chù 。
林轩听了，忍不住挠了挠头，还真是自己的错，如果不说清楚，是个人，都很容易将自己带到此处。
The girl obediently bowed and stood still. Lin Xuan then entered the room.
“ wǒ shì yào qù tiān lán xiān zi de líng wèi qián jì bài yī fān de 。”
“我是要去天岚仙子的灵位前祭拜一番的。”
Inside, the decor was ancient and elegant, far from resembling an enshrined spirit tablet place. His eyes fell on a divine inscription.
“ tiān lán xiān zi ？” shào nǚ cè le cè tóu ， yī shí piàn kè ， dào yě méi xiǎng qǐ shì nǎ wèi zǔ shī le 。
“天岚仙子？”少女侧了侧头，一时片刻，倒也没想起是哪位祖师了。
"Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion's nineteenth-generation grandmaster Tian Lan Fairy."
bì jìng tiān yá hǎi gé chuán chéng zì shàng gǔ ， dào xiàn zài ， yǐ jīng yǒu liǎng qiān sān bǎi duō dài ， zhè zhōng jiān ， yǒu duō shǎo yuán yīng yǔ lí hé xiū shì ， nà zhēn shì shù yě shǔ bù qīng chǔ ， jiù suàn xiū xiān zhě jì yì chū zhòng ， cǐ nǚ yòu zěn me kě néng jiāng měi yī wèi shī zǔ ， quán dōu jì de qīng qīng chǔ chǔ ？
毕竟天涯海阁传承自上古，到现在，已经有两千三百多代，这中间，有多少元婴与离合修士，那真是数也数不清楚，就算修仙者记忆出众，此女又怎么可能将每一位师祖，全都记得清清楚楚？
This was indeed her. Following that, Lin Xuan's gaze shifted to the wall behind.
“ tiān lán xiān zi ， shì běn mén dì shí jiǔ dài zǔ shī ， lí hé xiū shì 。” lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， cóng páng tí diǎn le yī jù 。
“天岚仙子，是本门第十九代祖师，离合修士。”林轩叹了口气，从旁提点了一句。
Another ink-and-wash scroll painting showed a woman in white robes, looking no more than twenty-seven or eight years old, also an outstanding beauty. However, this painting didn't reveal anything extraordinary. Lin Xuan then turned his attention to the altar before him.
“ ó ， dì zǐ xiǎo de le 。”
“哦，弟子晓得了。”
On it lay an jade eyeball, and inside was a brief account of her life story.
shào nǚ dà xǐ ， yǒu le zhè me xiáng xì de xìn xī ， nǎ hái yǒu shén me zhǎo bú dào de dào lǐ ， dāng jí dài zhe lín xuān xiàng dì sān céng zǒu qù 。
少女大喜，有了这么详细的信息，哪还有什么找不到的道理，当即带着林轩像第三层走去。
And unlike others who wrote such accounts, these were usually left by the supreme grandmaster just before their lifespan expired.
chuān guò gè tiáo huí láng qū zhé ， lái dào yī jīng měi de xiǎo yuàn luò ， yuǎn yuǎn wàng qù ， nǎ xiàng gòng fèng líng wèi zhī dì ， dào yǔ yī dà jiā guī xiù de guī fáng ， xiāng sì yǐ jí 。
穿过各条回廊曲折，来到一精美的小院落，远远望去，哪像供奉灵位之地，倒与一大家闺秀的闺房，相似以极。
Lin Xuan picked up the jade eyeball scroll and without hesitation, sank his divine sense into it.
“ shī zǔ ， jiù shì zhè lǐ 。”
“师祖，就是这里。”
The first part detailed Tian Lan Fairy's life. It included how she embarked on the path of cultivation and some major events in her life. Lin Xuan skipped over these parts as they had nothing to do with what he was looking for.
“ ń , nǐ jiù zài wài miàn děng zhe ， bù yòng jìn qù le 。”
“嗯,你就在外面等着，不用进去了。”
He spent several hours reading before suddenly raising an eyebrow, his expression turning serious.
“ shì ， shī zǔ 。”
“是，师祖。”
Sure enough, his guess was correct; the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array did indeed have something to do with the Mo Yue Clan.
duì yú lín xuān de fēn fù ， nà shào nǚ zì rán fēn háo yě bù gǎn wéi ào de ， lián máng xíng le yī lǐ ， shù shǒu ér lì ， lín xuān zé zǒu le jìn qù 。
对于林轩的吩咐，那少女自然分毫也不敢违拗的，连忙行了一礼，束手而立，林轩则走了进去。
That happened when Tian Lan Fairy just recently advanced to the 离合 realm.
lǐ miàn de bù zhì dào yě gǔ yǎ ， sī háo bù xiàng gòng fèng líng wèi zhī dì ， mù guāng suǒ jí ， yī shén yú yìng rù le yǎn lián lǐ 。
里面的布置倒也古雅，丝毫不像供奉灵位之地，目光所及，一神余映入了眼帘里。
Even in ancient times, a cultivator of the 离合 realm would be considered top-notch. After advancing successfully, Tian Lan Fairy was elated and went out on a journey. She arrived at Tianzhou...
“ tiān yá hǎi gé dì shí jiǔ dài zǔ shī tiān lán xiān zi ”。
“天涯海阁第十九代祖师天岚仙子”。
Tianzhou?
zhèng shì cǐ nǚ méi cuò ， suí hòu lín xuān de mù guāng xiàng zhe hòu miàn de qiáng shàng wàng guò qù le 。
正是此女没错，随后林轩的目光像着后面的墙上望过去了。
Lin Xuan's expression changed; during ancient times, that place had been more advanced than Yunzhou in terms of cultivation.
tóng yàng shì yī fù shuǐ mò dān qīng de huà juàn ， shàng miàn de nǚ zǐ bái yī shèng xuě ， kàn shàng qù bù guò èr shí qī bā de yàng zi ， yě shì yī chū sè de měi nǚ ， bù guò zhè fú huà shàng bìng kàn bù chū shén me chū qí ， suí hòu lín xuān mù guāng zhuǎn guò ， jiāng zhù yì lì luò zài yǎn qián de gòng zhuō 。
同样是一副水墨丹青的画卷，上面的女子白衣胜雪，看上去不过二十七八的样子，也是一出色的美女，不过这幅画上并看不出什么出奇，随后林轩目光转过，将注意力落在眼前的供桌。
Later, she coincidentally saved a Mo Yue Clan shaman and exchanged cultivation insights with the tribe for some time.
shàng miàn fàng zhe yí gè yù tóng ， bú yòng shuō ， lǐ miàn jiù yǒu duì cǐ nǚ shēng píng shì jì de jiǎn yào jiè shào le 。
上面放着一个玉瞳，不用说，里面就有对此女生平事迹的简要介绍了。
What happened during this period was not mentioned in the jade eyeball scroll, but it hinted that there were connections between the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array and the Mo Yue Clan.
ér qiě bìng bú shì páng rén shū xiě ， yì bān lái shuō ， dōu shì tài shàng zhǎng lǎo kuài yào shòu yuán hào jìn zuò huà yǐ qián ， zì jǐ liú xià lái de 。
而且并不是旁人书写，一般来说，都是太上长老快要寿元耗尽坐化以前，自己留下来的。
"Sure enough."
lín xuān shàng qián ná qǐ yù tóng jiǎn ， yě bù chí yí ， jiāng shén shí chén rù jìn qù 。
林轩上前拿起玉瞳简，也不迟疑，将神识沉入进去。
Lin Xuan raised his head, his face showing signs of joy. It seemed he had guessed correctly; the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array at the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion was indeed related to the Mo Yue Clan.
qián miàn shì zhè wèi tiān lán xiān zi de shēng píng shì jì ， bāo kuò zěn yàng tà shàng xiū xiān zhě zhī lù ， yǐ jí yù jiàn de yì qǐ zhòng dà shì jì ， qián miàn bù fèn ， lín xuān dōu lüè le guò qù ， zhè xiē yǔ zì jǐ yào chá zhǎo de dōng xī ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu duō dà de guān xì 。
前面是这位天岚仙子的生平事迹，包括怎样踏上修仙者之路，以及遇见的一起重大事迹，前面部分，林轩都略了过去，这些与自己要查找的东西，根本就没有多大的关系。
Although Tian Lan Fairy didn't explain what happened, she did clearly state the location of the Mo Yue tribe. With time passing, perhaps there would be some remnants left there. Lin Xuan had already made up his mind; he must visit Tianzhou once.
zhè yī kàn ， jiù shì shù gè shí chén ， tū rán ， lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo ， biǎo qíng rèn zhēn qǐ lái 。
这一看，就是数个时辰，突然，林轩眉头一挑，表情认真起来。
Since he had found what he was looking for, Lin Xuan wouldn't stay here any longer. After burning a stick of incense at Tian Lan Fairy's spirit tablet, he departed gracefully.
hái bié shuō ， zì jǐ de cāi cè zhēn méi yǒu cuò ， zhè jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhèn guǒ rán shì yǔ mò yuè zú yǒu guān xì de 。
还别说，自己的猜测真没有错，这九宫须臾剑阵果然是与墨月族有关系的。
"Grandmaster."
nà shì zhè wèi tiān lán xiān zi ， jìn jiē lí hé méi duō jiǔ de shì 。
那是这位天岚仙子，进阶离合没多久的事。
The girl with the baby face was still waiting outside. Seeing Lin Xuan come out, she smiled widely. Although she was curious about his purpose, she didn't dare speak casually.
lí hé ， jí biàn zài shàng gǔ de rén jiè ， nà yě shì dǐng ér jiān ér de cún zài le ， jìn jiē chéng gōng yǐ hòu ， tiān lán xiān zi yì qì fēng fā ， wài chū yóu lì ， lái dào le tiān zhōu ……。
离合，即便在上古的人界，那也是顶儿尖儿的存在了，进阶成功以后，天岚仙子意气风发，外出游历，来到了天州……。
Lin Xuan waved his sleeve and a streak of red light shot out. The light dissipated to reveal a peculiar-looking throwing knife.
tiān zhōu ？
天州？
"You've been good. I said I would give you some benefits. Take this Fiery Blade; it's a treasure from the Spirit Realm, and its quality and power should far exceed your current treasures."
lín xuān bù yóu de shén sè yī dòng ， yào zhī dào ， zài shàng gǔ shí qī ， nà kě shì bǐ yún zhōu xiū xiān de shuǐ píng ， hái yào gèng jiā gāo jí 。
林轩不由得神色一动，要知道，在上古时期，那可是比云州修仙的水平，还要更加高级。
"Thank you, Grandmaster."
suí hòu cǐ nǚ jī yuán qiǎo hé ， jiù le yī mò yuè zú de wū shī ， bìng zài mò yuè zú bù luò jiāo huàn xiū liàn xīn dé ， shēng huó le yī duàn shí qī 。
随后此女机缘巧合，救了一墨月族的巫师，并在墨月族部落交换修炼心得，生活了一段时期。
The girl was overjoyed. Lin Xuan waved his hand as green light enveloped him before he left the ancestral hall.
zhè zhōng jiān fā shēng le shén me , yù tóng jiǎn zhōng bìng méi yǒu tí ， bù guò yǐn yǐn yě chǎn míng liǎo ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhèn ， yǔ mò yuè zú yǒu nà me jǐ fēn guān xì 。
这中间发生了什么,玉瞳简中并没有提，不过隐隐也阐明了，九宫须臾剑阵，与墨月族有那么几分关系。
Over the next two days, Lin Xuan stayed in the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion to wait for the second婴灵to join him.
“ guǒ rán shì rú cǐ 。”
“果然是如此。”
Although he didn't know the outcome of the Pine Wind Academy, the lack of any spiritual signs meant that the little one was safe. During this time, Lin Xuan wasn't idle either; with a Core Formation realm cultivator present here, Liu Ying and the others would surely come to seek cultivation insights!~!
"Go ahead."
Lin Xuan waved his hand. There was no need to try and retain him.
"Thank you, Grandmaster."
The woman in a court dress bowed respectfully before transforming into a streak of light that flew off towards the distance. The surroundings soon fell silent as the girl with the baby face stood still, her head lowered, not daring to breathe. A grandmaster of the Core Formation realm had arrived here, and she felt quite intimidated.
Lin Xuan shook his head. He could easily guess what was going through her mind, for he too had once been a low-rank cultivator. Suddenly seeing such an advanced senior cultivator made him both fearful and eager to learn more.
To put it simply, if a high-level old monster suddenly appeared now, his feelings would be similar to hers.
"Lead the way in front of me. You needn't be afraid; just follow my instructions carefully, and I won't make things difficult for you. In fact, there will be some benefits for you." Lin Xuan said calmly.
"Yes, thank you, Grandmaster."
The girl's face lit up with joy. After all, the other party was a Core Formation realm cultivator. Even if they just took out one treasure item, it would be enough to last her a lifetime.
She hurriedly bowed and led Lin Xuan towards the ancestral hall of the grandmasters.
Lin Xuan had his own purpose for coming here as well.
The Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array was something he knew about from when he was in the mortal realm. Back then, he didn't pay much attention to it, only thinking that it was a good array but not necessary for cultivation. However, later on, he changed his mind. The reason? He had obtained the middle section of the Mo Yue Clan's treasure from the Hundred Toxin Divine Lord, which turned out to be the Core Formation realm part of this array. This meant he now possessed half of the Mo Yue Immortal Technique, making it much more feasible for him to cultivate.
Who knew how long it would take before he could advance to the Spirit Separation realm?
But Lin Xuan was a man who planned his moves carefully. Even though he didn't need to worry about the rest of the cultivation techniques now, early preparation was always better.
Especially when there was an opportunity, one shouldn't let it slip away.
If the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array in the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion truly had anything to do with the Mo Yue Clan, perhaps there would be clues regarding the Mo Yue Immortal Technique through sacrifice.
---
He didn't need to tell Liu Ying and the others about this. It was better to rely on himself than to ask for help. Lin Xuan decided to go to the ancestral hall himself to seek out any clues.
Following the lead of that girl with the baby face, they encountered no obstacles as they quickly arrived at the ancestral hall.
Although it was called an ancestral hall, it wasn't a large hall but rather a place where all cultivators who reached the婴灵 realm from each generation could be enshrined. However, their treatment varied depending on their rank.
The元婴 cultivators of each generation were grouped together like in a family's ancestral hall, while those at the离合 realm had individual shrines and received more respect and offerings.
Following the girl's lead, Lin Xuan entered a beautifully decorated room.
Once inside, he was momentarily stunned before his expression turned to one of bemusement. The shrine enshrined here was him!
On the golden pedestal were tablets listing his name: Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion, 2379th Supreme Grandmaster Lin Xuan. Hanging on the wall behind it was a scroll painting in ink and wash depicting his likeness. His appearance and demeanor were vividly portrayed.
"Why did you bring me here?"
Lin Xuan had long known that the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion enshrined his spirit tablet, but seeing it firsthand still felt strange.
"Of course not, Grandmaster, I beg your forgiveness," the girl was shocked and quickly knelt down. However, she also looked a bit委屈: "But you didn't say where we were going, so I thought..."
Lin Xuan scratched his head; he had made a mistake. If he hadn't been clear, anyone would have brought him here.
"I'm going to the spirit tablet of Fairy Tian Lan."
"Tian Lan Fairy?" The girl tilted her head, momentarily unable to recall which grandmaster it was.
After all, the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion had been passed down from ancient times and now had over 2300 generations. Countless元婴 and离合 cultivators had lived through these years; even if a cultivator had an excellent memory, how could she remember every single ancestor?
"Tian Lan Fairy was the nineteenth-generation grandmaster and a cultivator of the 离合 realm," Lin Xuan sighed and gave her some guidance.
"Oh, I understand now."
The girl's face lit up. With such detailed information, there was no reason to get lost. She immediately led Lin Xuan towards the third level.
They passed through winding corridors until they arrived at a small courtyard that looked nothing like an enshrined spirit tablet place but rather like the private chamber of a noblewoman.
"Grandmaster, this is where it is."
"Hmm, stay outside and don't go in."
"Yes, Grandmaster."
The girl obediently bowed and stood still. Lin Xuan then entered the room.
Inside, the decor was ancient and elegant, far from resembling an enshrined spirit tablet place. His eyes fell on a divine inscription.
"Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion's nineteenth-generation grandmaster Tian Lan Fairy."
This was indeed her. Following that, Lin Xuan's gaze shifted to the wall behind.
Another ink-and-wash scroll painting showed a woman in white robes, looking no more than twenty-seven or eight years old, also an outstanding beauty. However, this painting didn't reveal anything extraordinary. Lin Xuan then turned his attention to the altar before him.
On it lay an jade eyeball, and inside was a brief account of her life story.
And unlike others who wrote such accounts, these were usually left by the supreme grandmaster just before their lifespan expired.
Lin Xuan picked up the jade eyeball scroll and without hesitation, sank his divine sense into it.
The first part detailed Tian Lan Fairy's life. It included how she embarked on the path of cultivation and some major events in her life. Lin Xuan skipped over these parts as they had nothing to do with what he was looking for.
He spent several hours reading before suddenly raising an eyebrow, his expression turning serious.
Sure enough, his guess was correct; the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array did indeed have something to do with the Mo Yue Clan.
That happened when Tian Lan Fairy just recently advanced to the 离合 realm.
Even in ancient times, a cultivator of the 离合 realm would be considered top-notch. After advancing successfully, Tian Lan Fairy was elated and went out on a journey. She arrived at Tianzhou...
Tianzhou?
Lin Xuan's expression changed; during ancient times, that place had been more advanced than Yunzhou in terms of cultivation.
Later, she coincidentally saved a Mo Yue Clan shaman and exchanged cultivation insights with the tribe for some time.
What happened during this period was not mentioned in the jade eyeball scroll, but it hinted that there were connections between the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array and the Mo Yue Clan.
"Sure enough."
Lin Xuan raised his head, his face showing signs of joy. It seemed he had guessed correctly; the Nine Palaces Instant Sword Array at the Far Horizon Immortal Pavilion was indeed related to the Mo Yue Clan.
Although Tian Lan Fairy didn't explain what happened, she did clearly state the location of the Mo Yue tribe. With time passing, perhaps there would be some remnants left there. Lin Xuan had already made up his mind; he must visit Tianzhou once.
Since he had found what he was looking for, Lin Xuan wouldn't stay here any longer. After burning a stick of incense at Tian Lan Fairy's spirit tablet, he departed gracefully.
"Grandmaster."
The girl with the baby face was still waiting outside. Seeing Lin Xuan come out, she smiled widely. Although she was curious about his purpose, she didn't dare speak casually.
Lin Xuan waved his sleeve and a streak of red light shot out. The light dissipated to reveal a peculiar-looking throwing knife.
"You've been good. I said I would give you some benefits. Take this Fiery Blade; it's a treasure from the Spirit Realm, and its quality and power should far exceed your current treasures."

The girl was overjoyed. Lin Xuan waved his hand as green light enveloped him before he left the ancestral hall.
