林轩脸上流露出大喜之色。随?夢?小?說?,.com
Lin Xuan's face displayed an expression of great joy. Meanwhile, when Yanshan Senior Patriarch was sealed by ice, his consciousness link with the four魔宝 was also severed by the power of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire.
ér yān shān lǎo zǔ zài bèi bīng fēng de yī kè ， tóng sì jiàn mó bǎo de shén shí lián xì yě bèi huàn líng tiān huǒ de wēi néng gěi qiē duàn le 。
而燕山老祖在被冰封的一刻，同四件魔宝的神识联系也被幻灵天火的威能给切断了。
The Nine Palaces Needle Sword circled briefly before a sharp sound echoed as it flew back with force and wind.
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn lüè yī pán xuán ， zhǐ wén cī lā shēng dà zuò ， yǐ shì jiā jìng fēng de dào fēi huí lái le 。
九宫须臾剑略一盘旋，只闻刺啦声大做，已势夹劲风的倒飞回来了。
"Fall!"
“ luò ！”
“落！”
Lin Xuan roared loudly. His right hand pointed forward like a mountain. The sword transformed into a fierce ray, striking the azure-blue Profound Yin Ice harshly. A rumbling sound flowed past, splitting the blue ice in two along with the old demon inside; even its魔婴 failed to escape, vanishing under the power of the sword.
lín xuān yī shēng dà hē ， yòu shǒu níng zhòng rú shān de xiàng qián diǎn chū ， cǐ jiàn huà wèi yī dào lì máng ， hěn hěn de pī cì zài nà zhàn lán sè de xuán bīng zhī shàng ， hōng lōng lóng zhī shēng liú tǎng ér guò ， lán bīng lián tóng lǐ miàn de lǎo mó dōu bèi pī cì wèi liǎng bàn le ， shèn zhì lián mó yīng dōu méi lái de táo chū ， zài cǐ jiàn de wēi néng xià huà wèi le xū wú 。
林轩一声大喝，右手凝重如山的向前点出，此剑化为一道厉芒，狠狠的劈刺在那湛蓝色的玄冰之上，轰隆隆之声流淌而过，蓝冰连同里面的老魔都被劈刺为两半了，甚至连魔婴都没来得逃出，在此剑的威能下化为了虚无。
A strange light flashed across Lin Xuan's eyes, but he was still unsatisfied and rallied his remaining courage, sending another spell forward.
lín xuān yǎn zhōng yì máng shǎn guò ， què yī jiù bìng bù mǎn zú ， fèn qǐ yú yǒng ， yòu shì yī dào fǎ jué xiàng qián dǎ chū 。
林轩眼中异芒闪过，却依旧并不满足，奋起余勇，又是一道法诀向前打出。
The fragments of Liu Bing ignited like oil meeting fire, causing a blinding blue glow in the sky as the eerie flames burned fiercely.
lóu bīng de suì mò ， xiàng shì yóu yù jiàn le huǒ ， bèi yī xià zi gěi diǎn rán le ， tiān kōng zhōng lán máng cì mù ， nà guǐ yì de huǒ yàn xióng xióng rán shāo zhe 。
娄冰的碎末，像是油遇见了火，被一下子给点燃了，天空中蓝芒刺目，那诡异的火焰熊熊燃烧着。
In this way, Yanshan Senior Patriarch completely vanished into nothingness, leaving no chance for rebirth.
rú cǐ yī lái ， yān shān lǎo zǔ wán gè huà wèi le xū wú ， lián tóu tāi zhuǎn shì de jī huì dōu méi yǒu le 。
如此一来，燕山老祖完个化为了虚无，连投胎转世的机会都没有了。
Lin Xuan sighed with relief. This outcome was naturally satisfying, but he couldn't help feeling terrified when thinking about the process; it was all due to luck that he had won.
hū ！
呼！
No, I must find a way to advance my cultivation quickly. With my current strength, encountering an Old Monster of the Spirit Concentration stage would be too dangerous.
lín xuān shū le kǒu qì ， zhè ge jié jú zì rán mǎn yì wú bǐ ， bù guò xiǎng xiǎng guò chéng ， nà yě shì hòu pà yǐ jí ， zuì hòu néng gòu qǔ shèng ， chún shǔ yùn qì 。
林轩舒了口气，这个结局自然满意无比，不过想想过程，那也是后怕以极，最后能够取胜，纯属运气。
With his mind racing, Lin Xuan was about to leave this place when suddenly, his pupils constricted as if he had discovered something important and raised his head sharply.
bù xíng ， zì jǐ yào xiǎng bàn fǎ gǎn kuài jìn jí ， fǒu zé yǐ xiàn zài de shí lì ， yù jiàn fēn shén qī lǎo guài wù ， shí zài tài wēi xiǎn le 。
不行，自己要想办法赶快晋级，否则以现在的实力，遇见分神期老怪物，实在太危险了。
His face darkened to a degree, and he spoke in a low voice, "Since you fellow daoists have come here, why hide yourselves? Are you insignificant beings who dare not show your true faces?"
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān zhèng zhǔn bèi lí kāi zhè shì fēi zhī dì ， tū rán ， tóng kǒng wēi suō ， xiàng shì fā xiàn le shén me shì de sà rán tái qǐ tóu lú 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩正准备离开这是非之地，突然，瞳孔微缩，像是发现了什么似的飒然抬起头颅。
"Indeed, we knew of your presence early on."
tā de liǎn sè yīn mái dào jí chù ， shēng yīn dī chén de kāi kǒu le ：“ jǐ wèi dào yǒu jì rán lái le ， yòu hé bì cáng tóu lù wěi ， mò fēi shì xiāo xiǎo zhī bèi ， bù gǎn yǐ zhēn miàn mù shì rén me ？”
他的脸色阴霾到极处，声音低沉的开口了：“几位道友既然来了，又何必藏头露尾，莫非是宵小之辈，不敢以真面目示人么？”
A cold voice entered his ears. Then, light flashed as several ancient demons appeared before him.
“ yuán lái gé xià zǎo fā xiàn wǒ men le 。”
“原来阁下早发现我们了。”
There were seven of them, all at the Profound Origin stage, which meant they belonged to the Naga Clan.
yī bīng lěng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， suí hòu guāng yùn shǎn guò ， jǐ míng gǔ mó píng kōng chū xiàn zài shēn qián le 。
一冰冷的声音传入耳朵，随后光晕闪过，几名古魔凭空出现在身前了。
Lin Xuan's expression darkened.
gòng qī rén zhī duō ， qīng yī sè dòng xuán qī de xiū wèi ， bú yòng shuō ， zhèng shì nà jiā zú de nà jǐ gè jiā huo 。
共七人之多，清一色洞玄期的修为，不用说，正是纳迦族的那几个家伙。
There were so many ancient demons of the Profound Origin stage; their faces showed ill intentions, indicating that they weren't just passing through by chance.
lín xuān de liǎn sè yǒu xiē nán kàn le 。
林轩的脸色有些难看了。
If it had been a different time, even with such a large group, Lin Xuan wouldn't have feared them. Fellow daoists at the same level posed little threat to him.
dòng xuán qī gǔ mó ， shù liàng hái zhè me duō ， kàn tā men yí gè gè liǎn lù bù shàn zhī sè ， xiǎn rán bú shì ǒu rán lù guò zhè lǐ de 。
洞玄期古魔，数量还这么多，看他们一个个脸露不善之色，显然不是偶然路过这里的。
However, now he could only laugh bitterly. He had just gone through a fierce battle; although not completely drained of energy, his法力 and consciousness were severely depleted. Even if they outnumbered him, or faced an ancient demon of the Profound Origin stage alone, he wouldn't have any confidence in victory.
ruò shì huàn yí gè shí jiān ， jí biàn duì fāng rén duō ， lín xuān yě fēn háo bù pà ， tóng jiē cún zài duì tā ér yán ， wēi xié shí zài yǒu xiàn 。
若是换一个时间，即便对方人多，林轩也分毫不怕，同阶存在对他而言，威胁实在有限。
Damn it! With my current level of consciousness strength, I shouldn't have been discovered so close by them. The situation was special; most of my attention was focused on Yanshan Senior Patriarch, which gave these villains an opportunity to ambush me.
rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， lín xuān zé chú le kǔ xiào hái shì kǔ xiào le ， tā gāng gāng jīng lì le yī cháng dà zhàn ， bù shuō yóu jǐn dēng kū ， dàn fǎ lì shén shí ， dōu xiāo hào dào yí gè jí wéi yán zhòng de dì bù ， zhè shí hòu bié shuō dí zhòng wǒ guǎ ， jiù suàn duì shàng yī míng dòng xuán qī gǔ mó ， tā yě méi yǒu fēn háo de bǎ wò a ！
然而此时此刻，林轩则除了苦笑还是苦笑了，他刚刚经历了一场大战，不说油尽灯枯，但法力神识，都消耗到一个极为严重的地步，这时候别说敌众我寡，就算对上一名洞玄期古魔，他也没有分毫的把握啊！
Compared to Lin Xuan's frustration, the faces of the ancient demons showed excitement.
kě wù ， yuán běn yǐ lín xuān de shén shí qiáng dù ， shì bù kě néng bèi duì fāng qián dào zhè me jìn cái fā xiàn de ， rán ér gāng gāng qíng kuàng tè shū ， zì jǐ dà bù fèn zhù yì lì ， dōu bèi yān shān lǎo zǔ xī yǐn ， suǒ yǐ cái gěi le xiǎo rén yǐ kě chèn zhī jī le 。
可恶，原本以林轩的神识强度，是不可能被对方潜到这么近才发现的，然而刚刚情况特殊，自己大部分注意力，都被燕山老祖吸引，所以才给了小人以可趁之机了。
They had approached with a last-ditch effort, fearing the wrath of Lord Thunder Flame if they failed. However, their hearts were filled with trepidation as they drew closer.
yǔ lín xuān de ào sàng xiāng bǐ 。 nà jǐ míng gǔ mó de liǎn shàng zé wán quán shì 〖 xīng 〗 fèn zhī sè 。
与林轩的懊丧相比。那几名古魔的脸上则完全是〖兴〗奋之色。
Ancient Monsters at the Spirit Concentration stage couldn't be trifled with; once exposed, it could lead to an irreversible outcome.
yuán běn tā men shì bào zhe sǐ mǎ dàng zuò huó mǎ yī de tài dù ， ruò zài méi yǒu xiàn suǒ ， jiāng miàn lín léi yàn dà rén de léi tíng zhī nù ， rán ér tā men jiē jìn cǐ chù ， xīn zhōng què chōng mǎn le tǎn tè 。
原本他们是抱着死马当做活马医的态度，若再没有线索，将面临雷焰大人的雷霆之怒，然而他们接近此处，心中却充满了忐忑。
Their only hope was that the two ancient monsters were so engrossed in their battle that they ignored them completely.
fēn shén jí bié de lǎo guài wù qǐ shì tā men néng gòu dé zuì de ， yí dàn bào lù de xíng jì ， jiù yǒu kě néng shì wàn jié bù fù de jié jú 。
分神级别的老怪物岂是他们能够得罪的，一旦暴露的行迹，就有可能是万劫不复的结局。
However, things went much smoother than expected. The two old fellows fought fiercely but failed to notice their presence.
tā men wéi yī de yǐ zhàng ， jiù shì liǎng gè lǎo guài wù zhèng dǎ dé rú huǒ rú tú ， jiāng tā men zhè xiē xiǎo
他们唯一的倚仗，就是两个老怪物正打得如火如荼，将他们这些小
As the distance shortened, they discovered a shocking scene: one of the combatants was indeed an ancient monster at the Spirit Concentration stage—Yanshan Senior Patriarch—but the other was merely a Profound Origin cultivator.
xiā mǐ gěi hū lüè le 。
虾米给忽略了。
Was this a mistake? Several Naga Clan ancient demons doubted their own consciousness.
jié guǒ ， shì qíng bǐ xiǎng xiàng de hái yào shùn lì xǔ duō ， liǎng gè lǎo jiā huǒ dǎ chū le zhēn huǒ ， jū rán zhēn de sī háo yě méi yǒu fā xiàn tā men zhèng jiē jìn cǐ chù 。
结果，事情比想象的还要顺利许多，两个老家伙打出了真火，居然真的丝毫也没有发现他们正接近此处。
The intrusion of human cultivators into the Holy Realm was already shocking, but more astonishingly, he challenged an ancient monster at the Spirit Concentration stage while only at the Profound Origin level.
ér suí zhe jù lí de suō duǎn ， tā men gèng fā xiàn le bù kě sī yì de yí mù 。
而随着距离的缩短，他们更发现了不可思议的一幕。
How could that be possible?
zhèng jiāo shǒu de liǎng gè jiā huo ， yí gè què shí shì fēn shén jí bié de gǔ mó ， yān shān lǎo zǔ ， kě lìng wài yí gè ， jū rán zhǐ shì dòng xuán qī de xiū xiān zhě 。
正交手的两个家伙，一个确实是分神级别的古魔，燕山老祖，可另外一个，居然只是洞玄期的修仙者。
They were also at the Profound Origin stage and knew the difference between it and the Spirit Concentration stage. Such a level of overclass challenge had never been heard before.
yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò 。 jǐ míng nà jiā zú de gǔ mó dōu huái yí zì jǐ shén shí chū wèn tí le 。
有没有搞错。几名纳迦族的古魔都怀疑自己神识出问题了。
But the facts were there, so they couldn't ignore them; envy and jealousy filled their hearts.
yǒu rén lèi xiū shì qián rù shèng jiè běn yǐ lìng rén jīng è ， gèng bù kě sī yì de shì tā yǐ dòng xuán qī zhī shēn hái néng tiǎo zhàn fēn shén gǔ mó 。
有人类修士潜入圣界本已令人惊愕，更不可思议的是他以洞玄期之身还能挑战分神古魔。
However, things weren't over yet. They soon realized that the human cultivator was indeed the murderer they had sought for so long.
zhè zěn me kě néng ne ？
这怎么可能呢？
Although the clues were scarce, they still had some leads. Lin Xuan had killed a fragment of Soul Saint Naga's soul but also left a mark on him.
tā men jǐ gè yě shì dòng xuán jí bié de ， duì yú dòng xuán yǔ fēn shén jiān pà chā jù yǒu duō dà kě shì qīng qīng chǔ chǔ ， zhè zhǒng chéng dù de yuè jí tiǎo zhàn yǐ qián bié shuō jiàn ， lián tīng dōu bù céng tīng shuō 。
他们几个也是洞玄级别的，对于洞玄与分神间怕差距有多大可是清清楚楚，这种程度的越级挑战以前别说见，连听都不曾听说。
It wasn't a tracking effect, but once close enough, he could be easily identified as the culprit.
rán ér shì shí zài yǎn qián bǎi zhe ， bù xiāng xìn yě bù kě néng ， chú le xiàn mù jí dù ， tā men yě méi yǒu bié de xiǎng fǎ le 。
然而事实在眼前摆着，不相信也不可能，除了羡慕嫉妒，他们也没有别的想法了。
This was already sufficient!
rán ér shì qíng hái méi yǒu jié shù ， tā men hěn kuài fā xiàn nà rén lèi xiū shì jiù shì tā men kǔ kǔ xún mì de xiōng shǒu 。
然而事情还没有结束，他们很快发现那人类修士就是他们苦苦寻觅的凶手。
Finding what one sought after much effort without much trouble brought great joy to several demons. No wonder even Lady Naga had fallen; this human cultivator was too overpowered.
yào xiǎo de ， tā men jiē xià zhè ge rèn wù ， xiàn suǒ suī rán shǎo dé kě lián ， dàn yě bìng fēi yì diǎn méi yǒu ， lín xuān suī rán miè shā diào le bǎo shé shèng zǔ de yī lǚ hún pò ， dàn yě bèi duì fāng zuò xià biāo jì le 。
要晓得，他们接下这个任务，线索虽然少得可怜，但也并非一点没有，林轩虽然灭杀掉了宝蛇圣祖的一缕魂魄，但也被对方做下标记了。
Fortunately, evil people have their own nemesis. This guy got involved with Yanshan Senior Patriarch, so they didn't need to act; they just needed to wait and use his hands to avenge Lady Naga.
bìng bú shì yǒu zhuī zōng xiào guǒ de nà zhǒng ， bù guò zài jiē jìn yǐ hòu ， zhì shǎo kě yǐ yī yǎn rèn chū tā shì xiōng shǒu 。
并不是有追踪效果的那种，不过在接近以后，至少可以一眼认出他是凶手。
Their plan seemed good at first, as Yanshan Senior Patriarch was indeed in the upper hand. However, who could predict the outcome of such a battle? After some time, Yanshan Senior Patriarch mysteriously fell. They didn't know what happened but knew their plans had failed.
zhè jiù yǐ jīng zú gòu ！
这就已经足够！
Then Lin Xuan exposed their presence.
zhēn shì tà pò tiě xié wú mì chù dé lái quán bù fèi gōng fu ， jǐ mó xīn zhōng huān xǐ dào jí chù ， guài bù dé lián mó shé xiǎo jiě yě yǔn luò ， zhè gāi sǐ de rén lèi xiū shì wèi miǎn yě tài nì tiān le 。
真是踏破铁鞋无觅处得来全不费工夫，几魔心中欢喜到极处，怪不得连魔蛇小姐也陨落，这该死的人类修士未免也太逆天了。
The demons had no choice but to come out from their hiding place.
hǎo zài è rén zì yǒu è rén mó ， zhè jiā huo jū rán rě shàng le yān shān lǎo zǔ ， nà tā men yě bù yòng dòng shǒu le ， zhǐ xiāo yǐn fú zài cè ， jiè yān shān lǎo zǔ zhī shǒu ， wèi mó shé xiǎo jiě bào chóu 。
好在恶人自有恶人磨，这家伙居然惹上了燕山老祖，那他们也不用动手了，只消隐伏在侧，借燕山老祖之手，为魔蛇小姐报仇。
They were somewhat nervous about Lin Xuan's performance earlier; he was too strong.
dǎ suàn yuán běn bù cuò ， yān shān lǎo zǔ yě què rán yì zhí chù zài shàng fēng ， rán ér dòu fǎ de shì qíng shuí yòu shuō dé qīng chǔ ， yòu guò le yī huì er ， yān shān lǎo zǔ jū rán mò míng qí miào de yǔn luò ， jiū jìng shì zěn me huí shì tā men dōu bù xiǎo de ， zhǐ zhī dào rú yì suàn pán luò kōng 。
打算原本不错，燕山老祖也确然一直处在上风，然而斗法的事情谁又说得清楚，又过了一会儿，燕山老祖居然莫名其妙的陨落，究竟是怎么回事他们都不晓得，只知道如意算盘落空。
However, they weren't entirely fearful. After all, several of them were at the Profound Origin stage and could see that his法力 was depleted. With them taking a passive stance, there was still a chance for victory.
suí hòu lín xuān jiù jiào pò le tā men de xíng jì 。
随后林轩就叫破了他们的行迹。
But even as they thought this, they couldn't accurately assess how much strength Lin Xuan had left.
jǐ mó bù dé bù yìng zhe tóu pí ， cóng cáng shēn zhī dì chū lái 。
几魔不得不硬着头皮，从藏身之地出来。
If he was completely drained, they wouldn't fear anything; if he still had fighting power, they would flee in terror. After all, the strength Lin Xuan displayed was too overpowered for a Profound Origin cultivator.
xīn zhōng duō shǎo yǒu diǎn dǎ gǔ ， bì jìng lín xuān gāng cái de biǎo xiàn tài qiáng le 。
心中多少有点打鼓，毕竟林轩刚才的表现太强了。
The demons hesitated and didn't immediately attack. On the other side, Lin Xuan wasn't any better off. Although not completely drained, his reserves were severely depleted; he had no more fighting power left.
bù guò yě méi yǒu duō shǎo wèi jù ， bì jìng jǐ mó yě bù shǎ ， hǎo dǎi shì dòng xuán jí bié de a ， dāng rán kàn chū lín xuān fǎ lì suǒ shèng bù duō 。
不过也没有多少畏惧，毕竟几魔也不傻，好歹是洞玄级别的啊，当然看出林轩法力所剩不多。
"Damn it! How could I run into several ancient demons just now? Wasn't today my unlucky day?"
zì jǐ zhè xiē rén yǐ yì dài láo ， hái shì dà yǒu qǔ shèng jī huì de 。
自己这些人以逸待劳，还是大有取胜机会的。
Lin Xuan muttered to himself. On the surface, of course, he wouldn't reveal his weaknesses. With his deep-seated cunning, he knew what these demons were afraid of and had no choice but to use the empty city strategy.
bù guò xīn zhōng suī zhè yàng xiǎng ， lín xuān fǎ lì jiū jìng hái shèng duō shǎo tā men yě bù hǎo píng gū 。
不过心中虽这样想，林轩法力究竟还剩多少他们也不好评估。
Thinking this, Lin Xuan took a deep breath; his expression was calm, and his voice carried an icy anger: "Fellow daoists, why are you surrounding me? Do you think I'm weak and want to take advantage of my condition?"
rú guǒ shì yóu jǐn dēng kū dāng rán bù yòng wèi jù shén me ， jiǎ rú hái yǒu yī zhàn zhī lì ， kǒng pà tā men dé wàng fēng ér táo le ， bì jìng lín xuān gāng cái biǎo xiàn chū lái de shí lì ， jiù dòng xuán qī lái shuō ， wěi shí tài nì tiān le xiē 。
如果是油尽灯枯当然不用畏惧什么，假如还有一战之力，恐怕他们得望风而逃了，毕竟林轩刚才表现出来的实力，就洞玄期来说，委实太逆天了些。
Lin Xuan's lips curled with a hint of mockery. This only made the other side more confused about his true intentions.
Success!
Lin Xuan's face displayed an expression of great joy. Meanwhile, when Yanshan Senior Patriarch was sealed by ice, his consciousness link with the four魔宝 was also severed by the power of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire.
The Nine Palaces Needle Sword circled briefly before a sharp sound echoed as it flew back with force and wind.
"Fall!"
Lin Xuan roared loudly. His right hand pointed forward like a mountain. The sword transformed into a fierce ray, striking the azure-blue Profound Yin Ice harshly. A rumbling sound flowed past, splitting the blue ice in two along with the old demon inside; even its魔婴 failed to escape, vanishing under the power of the sword.

The fragments of Liu Bing ignited like oil meeting fire, causing a blinding blue glow in the sky as the eerie flames burned fiercely.
