“ jiàn guò qiǎo yún nián yè rén 。！。
“见过巧芸年夜人。！。
"Met Lady Qiao Yun."
jǐn guǎn jì tán fù jìn de gǔ mó ， cóng xiū wèi jìng jiè lái ， yǒu liǎng sān gè hái yào shèng guò cǐ nǚ ， dàn wú yī liǎn shàng bù lù chū gōng jìng zhī yì ， wēi wēi wān yāo xíng lǐ 。
尽管祭坛附近的古魔，从修为境界来，有两三个还要胜过此女，但无一脸上不露出恭敬之意，微微弯腰行礼。
Although there were a few ancient demons nearby whose cultivation levels surpassed this young lady, none of them showed any disrespect. They bowed slightly in reverence.
“ zhū wèi dào yǒu ， bù xiāo rú cǐ kè qì 。”
“诸位道友，不消如此客气。”
"Friends, no need for such formalities," the young lady said as she raised her hand and opened her lips to speak. A peculiar light flashed in her eyes. While not an absolute beauty, there was something unique about her appearance.
shào nǚ tái shǒu xū fú ， yīng chún wēi qǐ de kāi kǒu le ， yǎn zhōng yǒu qí yì de guāng máng shǎn guò ， cǐ nǚ suī fēi jué sè ， dàn hái shì bié yǒu yī fān fēng wèi ér de 。
少女抬手虚浮，樱唇微启的开口了，眼中有奇异的光芒闪过，此女虽非绝色，但还是别有一番风味儿的。
However, at this moment, none of them paid attention to that. Today was the day when the fragment soul of Ice Spirit Demon Sovereign descended. Every ancient demon present had a look of fervor in their eyes.
bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè ， gù rán bú huì yǒu shuí zhù yì zhè ge ， jīn tiān kě shì bīng pò mó zǔ fēn hún jiàng lín de rì zi ， zài chǎng de měi yí gè gǔ mó ， yǎn zhōng dū mǎn shì kuáng rè 。
不过此时此刻，固然不会有谁注意这个，今天可是冰魄魔祖分魂降临的日子，在场的每一个古魔，眼中都满是狂热。
The young lady stopped several yards away from the altar. Only then did she realize that she was barefoot and wore anklets with bell-like decorations, but there was no sound as she walked. Clearly, these were not for decoration but magical artifacts, though their specific functions remained unknown at present.
shào nǚ zǒu dào jù lí jì tán qī bā zhàng yuǎn de chù suǒ ， tíng le xià lái 。
少女走到距离祭坛七八丈远的处所，停了下来。
"How is the battle progressing?"
jìn le cái fā xiàn ， shào nǚ jū rán shì chì zhe shuāng zú ， jiǎo huái shàng hái dài yǒu líng suǒ bān de shì wù ， rán ér guǐ yì de shì ， tā zǒu dòng jiān ， bìng méi yǒu líng shēng fā chū ， xiǎn rán nà qí shí bú shì yòng yú zhuāng tè zhī wù ， ér shì fǎ qì de yī zhǒng ， zhì yú jù tǐ de zuò yòng ， xiàn zài què qí shí bù xiǎo de 。
近了才发现，少女居然是赤着双足，脚踝上还带有铃锁般的饰物，然而诡异的是，她走动间，并没有铃声发出，显然那其实不是用于装特之物，而是法器的一种，至于具体的作用，现在却其实不晓得。
"Report to Lady Qiao Yun, the stone demon has led our holy sect's thousands of disciples to intercept the demons and cultivators in the Heavenly Essence Mountains. Our forces are ten times greater than theirs. However, the intelligence reports were correct; there is indeed an old monster of Profound玄 Yin period in charge, with a large number of reinforcements behind them. For now, we can suppress them, but if this continues for too long, our defenses may still be breached," said a black-dressed demon, his face filled with respect.
“ qián fāng de zhàn jú zěn me yàng pīng ”
“前方的战局怎么样乒”
Hearing this, the young lady, dressed like a servant, casually ran her fingers through her hair: "For now, suppressing them is enough. As long as my sister's fragment soul descends into this world, those Profound玄 Yin period cultivators are just fleeting clouds..."
“ qǐ bǐng nián yè rén ， shí mó yǐ shuài lǐng wǒ shèng zú qiān wàn mén shēng ， zài tiān yuán shān mài yī dài lán xià le yāo zú yǔ xiū shì ， jiù jūn lì lái ， wǒ men shí bèi yú xiū xiān zhě ， bù guò qián miàn de qíng bào méi yǒu cuò ， duì fāng què rán yǒu yī míng dòng xuán qī lǎo guài wù zuò zhèn de ， bìng qiě hòu miàn hái yǒu nián yè liàng yuán jūn ， zàn shí ， wǒ men kě yǐ jiāng tā men gài zhù ， rán ér shí jiān jiǔ le ， fáng dì kǒng pà yī jiù huì bèi tū pò ” huà de shì yī hún shēn qī hēi de mó zú ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì gōng jìng zhī sè 。
“启禀年夜人，石魔已率领我圣族千万门生，在天元山脉一带拦下了妖族与修士，就军力来，我们十倍于修仙者，不过前面的情报没有错，对方确然有一名洞玄期老怪物坐镇的，并且后面还有年夜量援军，暂时，我们可以将他们盖住，然而时间久了，防地恐怕依旧会被突破”话的是一浑身漆黑的魔族，脸上满是恭敬之色。
"Have all the sacrifices been prepared?"
tīng le cǐ yǔ ， nà yā huán fú zhuāng de shào nǚ màn bù jīng xīn ， shēn shǒu le lǐ le lǐ fà sī ：“ zàn shí néng gòu gài zhù ， zhè jiù jǐ jīng zú gòu le ， zhǐ yào wǒ jiā jiě fēn hún jiàng lín cǐ jiè ， shén me dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ， bù guò shì fú yún bà le ……”
听了此语，那丫鬟服装的少女漫不经心，伸手了理了理发丝：“暂时能够盖住，这就己经足够了，只要我家姐分魂降临此界，什么洞玄期修仙者，不过是浮云罢了……”
"We will not disappoint you, Lady Qiao Yun. Witnessing the descent of Ice Spirit Demon Sovereign is a once-in-ten-lifetimes blessing for us; how could we be negligent? All the items you asked for have been gathered here."
“ jì pǐn ， kě dōu zhǔn bèi hǎo le ？”
“祭品，可都准备好了？”
The ancient demon reached into his waistband and produced a storage bag, which was enveloped in black light and landed gently in the young lady's palm.
“ nián yè rén ān xīn ， néng gòu mù dǔ bīng pò mó zǔ fēn hún jiàng lín ， nǎi shì wǒ děng shí bèi zi xiū lái de xiān fú ， zěn me gǎn yǒu fēn háo xiè dài ne ， nín jiāo dài de gōng jù ， wǒ men gān nǎo tú dì ， nà yě yào shōu jí qí ， rú jīn dōu zài zhè lǐ 。”
“年夜人安心，能够目睹冰魄魔祖分魂降临，乃是我等十辈子修来的仙福，怎么敢有分毫懈怠呢，您交代的工具，我们肝脑涂地，那也要收集齐，如今都在这里。”
She examined it without hesitation, sinking her spirit awareness inside. After a moment, she raised her face with satisfaction: "Excellent, all the necessary items are gathered. If these materials were common in the Holy Realm, they wouldn't be remarkable, but here on this lower plane, they are truly precious. Everyone has done well; I will inform my sister of this."
nà gǔ mó yī biān ， yī biān shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài yāo jiān yī pāi ， yí gè chǔ wù dài fēi lüè chū lái ， bèi hēi máng bāo guǒ ， wěn wěn de luò zài shào nǚ de zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng 。
那古魔一边，一边伸出手来，在腰间一拍，一个储物袋飞掠出来，被黑芒包裹，稳稳的落在少女的掌心之中。
"Thank you, Lady Qiao Yun," the ancient demons said with joy. To gain favor from Ice Spirit Demon Sovereign would bring countless benefits.
shào nǚ háo bú kè qì de ná dào yǎn qián ” jiāng shén shí chén rù lǐ miàn 。
少女毫不客气的拿到眼前”将神识沉入里面。
"By the way, Qiao Yun Sister, is the physical form for when our Lady descends prepared?"
piàn kè hòu ， tái qǐ tóu ， liǎn shàng lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè ：“ bù cuò bù cuò ， suǒ yào de gōng jù ， quán dōu shōu jí qí le ， ruò shì zài shèng jiè ， zhè xiē cái liào zì rán suàn bù liǎo shén me ， dàn zài zhè yàng de xià wèi jiè miàn ， yě suàn nán néng kě guì le ， men chǔ shì dōu hěn dé lì ， děng huì er ， wǒ zì rán huì xiàng jiě bǐng míng de 。”
片刻后，抬起头，脸上露出满意之色：“不错不错，所要的工具，全都收集齐了，若是在圣界，这些材料自然算不了什么，但在这样的下位界面，也算难能可贵了，们处事都很得力，等会儿，我自然会像姐禀明的。”
The question came from a demon with green skin and sharp teeth, known for his excessive talk and unnecessary inquiries.
“ duō xiè qiǎo yún nián yè rén ” wǒ děng wèi bīng pò mó zǔ fù tāng dǎo huǒ ” nà yě shì zài suǒ bù cí de 。” gǔ mó men tīng shào nǚ zhè yàng ， wú bù xǐ xíng yú sè ， ruò néng huò dé bīng pò nián yè rén shǎng shí ， nà hǎo chù shì bù yán ér shá de 。
“多谢巧芸年夜人”我等为冰魄魔祖赴汤蹈火”那也是在所不辞的。”古魔们听少女这样，无不喜形于色，若能获得冰魄年夜人赏识，那好处是不言而啥的。
"It's naturally ready."
“ duì le ， qiǎo yún jiě ， bīng pò nián yè rén jiàng lín shí de fǎ shēn zhǔn bèi hǎo le me ？” kāi kǒu de shì yī qīng miàn liáo yá de gǔ mó ， zhè jiā huo de tè diǎn jiù shì huà duō ， cháng wèn yī xiē gēn běn jiù bù gāi tā guān xīn de 。
“对了，巧芸姐，冰魄年夜人降临时的法身准备好了么？”开口的是一青面獠牙的古魔，这家伙的特点就是话多，常问一些根本就不该他关心的。
A look of displeasure flashed across her face, but she still replied: "You will see it soon. For now, let's not discuss this. Everyone, finish setting up the altar's array first; I don't need to guide you."
“ zì rán zhǔn bèi hǎo le 。”
“自然准备好了。”
She shook the storage bag in her palm, and black spiritual light flickered. The sound of various materials clattering filled her ears—top-grade crystal stones, seeds of three-leaf flowers, lightning crystals...
shào nǚ liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī bú yuè zhī sè ， dàn hái shì kāi kǒu huí dá le ：“ yī huì er zì rán huì kàn jiàn de ， hǎo le ， xiàn zài xiān bú yào tán zhè ge ， nián yè jiā xiān jiāng jì tán de fǎ zhèn ān chā wán bì ， gāi zěn me zuò ” wǒ xiǎng bù xū yào wǒ zhǐ diǎn le 。”
少女脸上闪过一丝不悦之色，但还是开口回答了：“一会儿自然会看见的，好了，现在先不要谈这个，年夜家先将祭坛的法阵安插完毕，该怎么做”我想不需要我指点了。”
A variety of items were present, all of which would be hard to come by in the mortal world.
cǐ nǚ yī biān ， yī biān jiāng zhǎng xīn zhōng de chǔ wù dài yī dǒu ， hēi sè de líng máng shǎn guò ， xī lǐ huā lā de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， jí pǐn jīng shí ， sān yè huā de zhǒng zi ， léi jīng shí ……
此女一边，一边将掌心中的储物袋一抖，黑色的灵芒闪过，稀里哗啦的声音传入耳朵，极品晶石，三叶花的种子，雷晶石……
"Yes!"
gè zhǒng gè yàng de cái liào bù yī ér zú ， zhèng xiàng tā suǒ ， zhè xiē gōng jù ， fàng dào shàng wèi jiè miàn ， huò xǔ méi shén me liǎo bù qǐ ， dàn zài rén jiè lái ， què wú yī bú shì kě yù ér bù chéng qiú zhī wù 。
各种各样的材料不一而足，正像他所，这些工具，放到上位界面，或许没什么了不起，但在人界来，却无一不是可遇而不成求之物。
The other ancient demons did not hesitate; they picked up these treasures and began setting them up on the altar's top.
“ shì ！”
“是！”
In a short while, half an hour passed. A mysterious array appeared at the center of the altar.
qí tā gǔ mó bù gǎn dān gē ” fēn fán shí qǐ nà xiē cái liào bǎo bèi ， kāi shǐ zài jì tán dǐng bù ān chā qǐ lái le 。
其他古魔不敢担搁”纷繁拾起那些材料宝贝，开始在祭坛顶部安插起来了。
This array was primarily black, vastly different from ordinary human-world arrays. It was adorned with countless intricate magical runes, but their effects were unknown.
hěn kuài ， bàn gè shí chén guò qù le ， yī xuán miào de zhèn fǎ chéng xiàn zài jì tán dǐng bù 。
很快，半个时辰过去了，一玄妙的阵法呈现在祭坛顶部。
The young lady scanned the array with satisfaction, then raised her hands and drew mystical trajectories in mid-air. Spell seals appeared one after another before her eyes.
cǐ zhèn fǎ yǐ hēi sè wéi zhǔ ， kàn shàng qù yǔ pǔ tōng de rén jiè zhèn fǎ nián yè bù xiāng tóng ， shàng miàn lòu kōng diāo lòu de xuán miào mó wén wú shù ， yě bù zhī dào jiū jìng shì yǒu shén me xiào guǒ 。
此阵法以黑色为主，看上去与普通的人界阵法年夜不相同，上面镂空雕镂的玄妙魔纹无数，也不知道究竟是有什么效果。
"Quickly!"
cǐ nǚ mù guāng zài zhèn fǎ shàng sǎo guò ， liǎn shàng què lù chū mǎn yì zhī sè ， suí shǒu shuāng shǒu tái qǐ ， zài xū kōng zhōng huá guò yī dào dào xuán miào de guǐ jì ， yí gè jiē yí gè de fǎ yìn chéng xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ 。
此女目光在阵法上扫过，脸上却露出满意之色，随手双手抬起，在虚空中划过一道道玄妙的轨迹，一个接一个的法印呈现在视线里。
Her jade hand extended forward, lightly tapping. The spell seals grew as they danced through the wind, merging into the array.
tā yù shǒu shēn chū ， xiàng qián qīng diǎn ér qǐ ， nà xiē fǎ yìn yíng fēng yī shǎn ， xùn sù biàn nián yè le qǐ lái ， rán hòu mò rù le zhèn fǎ lǐ miàn 。
她玉手伸出，向前轻点而起，那些法印迎风一闪，迅速变年夜了起来，然后没入了阵法里面。
Immediately, a clear sound echoed, and the entire array began to operate. Black light flowed continuously, appearing extremely mysterious.
“ wēng ！”
“嗡！”
The young lady swayed her slender waist, rising slowly from above to survey the altar.
mǎ shàng ， qīng míng shēng nián yè zuò ， zhěng gè zhèn fǎ kāi shǐ yùn zhuàn qǐ lái le ， yī dào dào hēi máng liú zhuǎn bù yǐ ， kàn shàng qù shén mì yǐ jí 。
马上，清鸣声年夜做，整个阵法开始运转起来了，一道道黑芒流转不已，看上去神秘以极。
She then opened her left hand, revealing a coffin in her palm.
nà shào nǚ xiān yāo yī bǎi ， zhěng gè rén xú xú de fēi le qǐ lái ， cóng shàng kōng fǔ shì jì tán 。
那少女纤腰一摆，整个人徐徐的飞了起来，从上空俯视祭坛。
Indeed, it was a coffin, but surprisingly small, barely half a foot long, seemingly made of dark jade, completely black with a faint glow like that of underworld gems.
suí hòu tā zuǒ shǒu tān kāi ， zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng chéng xiàn le yī kǒu guān cái 。
随后她左手摊开，掌心之中呈现了一口棺材。
With both hands, she grasped and chanted incantations as magical runes enveloped the coffin, slowly flying towards the center of the altar.
méi cuò ， shì guān cái ， rán ér què qiǎo yǐ jí ， zhǎng bù zú bàn chǐ ， huǎng rú shì yòng mò yù dǐ lì ， tōng tǐ tāo hēi wú bǐ ” què yǒu míng jiè bǎo shí yì bān de guāng máng shǎn shuò 。
没错，是棺材，然而却巧以极，长不足半尺，恍如是用墨玉砥砺，通体涛黑无比”却有冥界宝石一般的光芒闪烁。
In the next few seconds, an unbelievable scene unfolded before their eyes.
cǐ nǚ liǎng shǒu yī wò ” fǎ jué bù duàn de huàn huà zhe ， yǔ zhī péi bàn de ， shì yuè ěr de zhòu yǔ shēng cóng qí tán kǒu zhōng huǎn huǎn tǔ chū ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， nà guān cái bèi yī céng hēi sè de líng máng bāo guǒ ， huǎn huǎn de xiàng jì tán de zhōng xīn fēi guò qù le 。
此女两手一握”法诀不断的幻化着，与之陪伴的，是悦耳的咒语声从其檀口中缓缓吐出，随着她的动作，那棺材被一层黑色的灵芒包裹，缓缓的像祭坛的中心飞过去了。
As the coffin flew, it strangely grew larger. Initially only half a foot long when taken out, by the time it was embedded in the center of the array, it resembled a real coffin.
ér zài jiē xià lái de jǐ xī ， bù chéng sī yì de yí mù chéng xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ 。
而在接下来的几息，不成思议的一幕呈现在视线里。
Seeing this, the young lady's spell seals condensed even more quickly, then pointed forward with one finger.
nà guān cái zài fēi xiáng de guò chéng zhōng ， jū rán guǐ yì de biàn nián yè le 。
那棺材在飞翔的过程中，居然诡异的变年夜了。
"Whoo!"
qǐ chū gāng ná chū lái shí ， zhǎng bù guò bàn chǐ ， dāng xī bèi xiāng qiàn dào jì tán fǎ zhèn de zhōng xīn chù ， nián yè yǐ jīng yǔ zhēn zhèng de guān cái xiāng sì 。
起初刚拿出来时，长不过半尺，当牺被镶嵌到祭坛法阵的中心处，年夜已经与真正的棺材相似。
Demon energy burst forth, and the entire array began to operate. Demon winds appeared out of nowhere, and the lid of the coffin slowly rose.
nà shào nǚ jiàn le ， shǒu zhōng de fǎ yìn níng jié dé gèng jiā xùn sù ， suí hòu yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn chū 。
那少女见了，手中的法印凝结得更加迅速，随后一指像前点出。
"What...?"
wū ！
呜！
All the ancient demons widened their eyes as they saw what was inside the coffin.
mó qì pēn bó ， zhěng gè zhèn fǎ mǎ shàng yùn zhuàn qǐ lái le ， mó fēng píng kōng ér chū ， nà guān gài huǎn huǎn de fēi le qǐ lái 。
魔气喷薄，整个阵法马上运转起来了，魔风凭空而出，那棺盖缓缓的飞了起来。
"Is it possible? This is the physical form Ice Spirit Demon Sovereign has chosen for her descent?"
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
"Qiao Yun Lady, are you sure about this? We cannot joke about such matters."
dāng kàn jiàn guān cái zhōng suǒ shèng fàng zhī wù ， suǒ yǒu de gǔ mó wú bù dèng nián yè le yǎn zhū 。
当看见棺材中所盛放之物，所有的古魔无不瞪年夜了眼珠。
Whispers and murmurs filled the air. A dozen ancient demons' faces showed shock.
“ bú huì ba ， zhè jiù shì bīng pò nián yè rén fēn hún jiàng lín suǒ xuǎn dìng de fǎ shēn ？”
“不会吧，这就是冰魄年夜人分魂降临所选定的法身？”
They had thought that when Ice Spirit Demon Sovereign's fragment soul descended, she would need a human or demon body for possession, with the owner's cultivation level being as high as possible.
“ qiǎo yún nián yè rén ， què dìng méi yǒu nòng cuò ， zhè jiàn shì kě bù kè bù jí kāi wán xiào de 。”
“巧芸年夜人，确定没有弄错，这件事可不克不及开玩笑的。”
However, what was inside the coffin far exceeded their expectations. It wasn't a human or demon woman but a white ginseng root.
dí gū yǔ yì lùn shēng bù duàn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， shí jǐ gè gǔ mó de liǎn shàng dōu nán yǎn jīng yà zhī sè 。
嘀咕与议论声不断传入耳朵，十几个古魔的脸上都难掩惊讶之色。
Yes, it was a ginseng root, though not ordinary; its height matched that of an adult.
zài tā men xiǎng lái ， bīng pò mó zǔ fēn hún jiàng shì ， zěn me yě yào zhǔn bèi yī rén zú huò zhě yāo xiū de qū tǐ ， yǐ biàn nián yè rén kě yǐ duó shě 。
在他们想来，冰魄魔祖分魂降世，怎么也要准备一人族或者妖修的躯体，以便年夜人可以夺舍。
In other words, this ginseng root had at least hundreds of thousands of years of age.
zhì yú nà qū tǐ zhǔ rén de xiū wèi ， gù rán shì yuè gāo yuè hǎo le 。
至于那躯体主人的修为，固然是越高越好了。
From the perspective of cultivators, a ginseng root wasn't particularly remarkable. However, if it were a ten-thousand-year-old spirit object, it would be invaluable. And such a ginseng root that could grow for hundreds of thousands of years was even more precious, with its spirit intelligence likely already awakened.
rán ér guān cái zhōng suǒ shèng fàng zhī wù ， què zhe shí tài chū hū tā men yù liào le ， lǐ miàn tǎng zhe de qí shí bú shì rén zú huò zhě yāo zú de nǚ zǐ ， ér shì yī kē xuě bái de rén shēn lái zhe 。
然而棺材中所盛放之物，却着实太出乎他们预料了，里面躺着的其实不是人族或者妖族的女子，而是一颗雪白的人参来着。

"Met Lady Qiao Yun."
Although there were a few ancient demons nearby whose cultivation levels surpassed this young lady, none of them showed any disrespect. They bowed slightly in reverence.
"Friends, no need for such formalities," the young lady said as she raised her hand and opened her lips to speak. A peculiar light flashed in her eyes. While not an absolute beauty, there was something unique about her appearance.
