bù guò nà yě méi shén me ， jiù suàn tā men fā xiàn zì jǐ shì xiū xiān zhě ， nà yòu rú hé ？
不过那也没什么，就算他们发现自己是修仙者，那又如何？
However, that was nothing. Even if they discovered he was a cultivator, what could they do about it?
fǎn zhèng lín xuān yě méi yǒu dǎ suàn guò ， yào ràng liǎng mó huó zhe lí kāi de 。 xiǎo
反正林轩也没有打算过，要让两魔活着离开的。小
After all, Lin Xuan had no intention of letting the two demons leave alive. As long as they fell, his secret identity would remain hidden.
zhǐ yào tā men yǔn luò ， zì jǐ shēn fèn de mì mì zì rán jiù bú huì bào lù le 。
只要他们陨落，自己身份的秘密自然就不会暴露了。
Both sides were confident in their abilities and there was no turning back; only combat remained.
shuāng fāng kě yǐ shuō ， duì zì jǐ jiē shì xìn xīn shí zú ， ér shì qíng dào le zhè yī bù ， yě méi yǒu fēn háo huí xuán de yú dì ， wéi zhàn ér yǐ 。
双方可以说，对自己皆是信心十足，而事情到了这一步，也没有分毫回旋的余地，唯战而已。
And it was to be a fight to the death.
ér qiě shì bù sǐ bù xiū de jié jú 。
而且是不死不休的结局。
Given this, there was nothing to be gained by being polite. The first strike is always best.
jì rán rú cǐ ， nà dāng rán méi yǒu shén me hào kè qì ， xiān fā zhì rén nǎi shì zhēn lǐ 。
既然如此，那当然没有什么好客气，先发制人乃是真理。
Lin Xuan moved.
lín xuān dòng shǒu le 。
林轩动手了。
With a flick of his sleeve, a sharp cone-shaped magical treasure shot out. This treasure was crimson in color and had electric arcs swirling around its surface, with faintly visible符文flashing like grains of rice.
xiù páo yī fú ， yī jiān zhuī xíng zhuàng de fǎ bǎo fēi lüè ér chū ， cǐ bǎo zuò huǒ hóng sè ， biǎo miàn hái chán rào zhe yī quān quān de diàn hú ， yǐn yǐn yǒu mǐ lì dà xiǎo de fú wén tūn tǔ 。
袖袍一拂，一尖锥形状的法宝飞掠而出，此宝做火红色，表面还缠绕着一圈圈的电弧，隐隐有米粒大小的符文吞吐。
It was an ancient demon's treasure from the Heavenly Corpse Sect, possessing immense power. When Lin Xuan used it in Feiluo City, he spent considerable effort re-cultivating it, changing both its attributes and enhancing its abilities significantly.
nǎi shì dé zì tiān shī mén gǔ lǎo mó de bǎo wù ， wēi lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， zài yuè luó chéng zhī shí ， lín xuān fèi le bù shǎo gōng fu ， jiāng qí chóng xīn jì liàn le yī biàn ， lián shǔ xìng dōu yǒu suǒ gǎi biàn ， shén tōng yě bǎi chǐ gān tóu gèng jìn yī bù ， bǐ yuán lái tí gāo le bèi xǔ hái duō 。
乃是得自天尸门古老魔的宝物，威力非同小可，在岳罗城之时，林轩费了不少功夫，将其重新祭炼了一遍，连属性都有所改变，神通也百尺竿头更进一步，比原来提高了倍许还多。
The two demons, Tiantai and Liangtai, frowned as they saw this. This little fellow couldn't be underestimated; his first move was a dual-element treasure.
tiān lán liǎng mó méi tou yí zhòu ， zhè xiǎo jiā huo ， hái zhēn bù néng tài guò xiǎo shì le ， yī chū shǒu ， jiù shì shuāng shǔ xìng bǎo wù 。
天岚两魔眉头一皱，这小家伙，还真不能太过小视了，一出手，就是双属性宝物。
But what of that?
bù guò nà yòu rú hé ？
不过那又如何？
To a Spirit Cultivation stage existence, such power wasn't much to speak of.
duì fēn shén qī cún zài lái shuō ， zhè yě suàn bù liǎo shén me 。
对分神期存在来说，这也算不了什么。
The green-armored ancient demon raised his right hand, and the sound of cracking bones filled their ears, accompanied by flickers of black light. His right forearm had vanished, replaced by a scythe-like bone blade with electric arcs swirling around it.
nà qīng jiǎ gǔ mó tái qǐ yòu shǒu ， pī lǐ pā lā de gǔ gé bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì hēi guāng shǎn shuò ， tā yòu shǒu de xiǎo bì jū rán bú jiàn le 。
那青甲古魔抬起右手，噼里啪啦的骨骼爆裂声传入耳朵，与之伴随的是黑光闪烁，他右手的小臂居然不见了。
He aimed at Lin Xuan's lightning fire cone and slashed fiercely.
qǔ ér dài zhī shì yī bǐng xíng rú lián dāo de gǔ rèn ， biǎo miàn shèn zhì chán rào zhe yī quān quān de diàn hú 。
取而代之是一柄形如镰刀的骨刃，表面甚至缠绕着一圈圈的电弧。
Lin Xuan frowned as he pointed a finger forward. A loud crackling sound echoed, the lightning fire cone becoming even more dazzling. Without retreating, it collided forcefully with the bone blade.
duì zhǔn le lín xuān de léi huǒ zhuī hěn hěn pī luò 。
对准了林轩的雷火锥狠狠劈落。
Boom!
lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu ， yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn qù ， dùn shí pī lǐ pā lā de léi míng shēng dà qǐ ， léi huǒ zhuī biǎo miàn de líng máng biàn dé yuè fā de yào yǎn le ， sī háo tuì bì zhī yì yě wú ， hěn hěn de xiàng zhe nà gǔ rèn jī zhuàng shàng qù le 。
林轩眉头一皱，一指向前点去，顿时噼里啪啦的雷鸣声大起，雷火锥表面的灵芒变得越发的耀眼了，丝毫退避之意也无，狠狠的向着那骨刃激撞上去了。
The explosion was much louder than expected, akin to a thunderclap on a clear day. From where the lightning fire cone and bone blade met, a black-red electric arc burst forth, expanding outward and enveloping the green-armored ancient demon.
nà bào liè de shēng yīn bǐ xiǎng xiàng de yào dà dé duō ， shèn zhì kě yǐ zhè yàng shuō ， qíng tiān pī lì yǔ qí xiāng bǐ ， gēn běn dōu bù zhí yī tí ， cóng léi huǒ zhuī yǔ gǔ rèn de jiāo jiē zhī chù ， sà rán bào chū yī tuán hēi hóng sè de diàn hú ， xiàng wài kuò zhǎn ， yī xià zi jiù jiāng qīng jiǎ gǔ mó bāo guǒ zài le lǐ miàn 。
那爆裂的声音比想象的要大得多，甚至可以这样说，晴天霹雳与其相比，根本都不值一提，从雷火锥与骨刃的交接之处，飒然爆出一团黑红色的电弧，向外扩展，一下子就将青甲古魔包裹在了里面。
The woman beside him gasped in shock.
“ dà gē ！”
“大哥！”
She had been married to this green-armored ancient demon for years; his abilities were well known to her. Unlike ordinary demons, he cultivated an unusual technique that involved using his own body's strength to face opponents instead of relying on magical treasures.
páng biān de nǚ zǐ dà jīng shī sè 。
旁边的女子大惊失色。
However, saying it was exactly like a beast wasn't entirely accurate either. After all, the big brother didn't rely solely on brute force. After mastering the "Ten Thousand Transformations Decree," his bones and flesh could transform into various weapons.
tā yǔ qīng jiǎ gǔ mó zuò le nà me duō nián de fū qī ， qí shén tōng rú hé zì rán shì yì qīng èr chǔ 。
她与青甲古魔做了那么多年的夫妻，其神通如何自然是一清二楚。
Not only did they look similar, but their power was unparalleled, sufficient to match true demon treasures.
yǔ yì bān de mó zú bù tóng ， zhàng fū xiū liàn de shì hěn tè bié de shén tōng 。
与一般的魔族不同，丈夫修炼的是很特别的神通。
But just that hard clash; her husband clearly had the upper hand!
tā bìng méi yǒu jì liàn bǎo wù ， ér shì yǒu jǐ fēn xiàng yāo zú ， yǐ zì jǐ de shēn tǐ qiáng hèng qù miàn duì dí shǒu 。
他并没有祭炼宝物，而是有几分像妖族，以自己的身体强横去面对敌手。
Was something wrong? Her husband was a Spirit Cultivation middle-stage existence. The opponent had only recently broken through from Profound Void stage, barely entering the Spirit Cultivation realm not long ago.
rán ér ruò shuō wán quán xiàng yāo zú nà yòu shì bù zhǔn què de ， yīn wèi dà gē bìng bú shì kào quán tou ， xiū liàn le 《 qiān biàn wàn huà jué 》 yǐ hòu ， dà gē de gǔ gé xuè ròu ， kě yǐ biàn huà chū gè zhǒng bīng rèn lái de 。
然而若说完全像妖族那又是不准确的，因为大哥并不是靠拳头，修炼了《千变万化诀》以后，大哥的骨骼血肉，可以变化出各种兵刃来的。
How could he force back his big brother in such a short time?
bìng bù jǐn jǐn shì xíng sì ， wēi lì tóng yàng wú yǔ lún bǐ ， zú gòu yǔ zhēn zhèng de mó bǎo xiāng bǐ 。
并不仅仅是形似，威力同样无与伦比，足够与真正的魔宝相比。
She couldn't understand it at all! But facts were before her; questioning them would be futile. She knew this young man was formidable, but she never expected him to be so fierce.
kě gāng gāng nà yī jì yìng pèng ， fū jūn míng xiǎn shì chǔ yú xià fēng ！
可刚刚那一记硬碰，夫君明显是处于下风！
The woman's face showed shock, but she had no time for contemplation.
yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò ， fū jūn kě shì fēn shén zhōng qī de cún zài le ， ér duì fāng zài bù jiǔ qián ， hái jǐn jǐn dòng xuán ， gāng gāng jī yuán qiǎo hé jiāng píng jǐng tū pò ， tà rù fēn shén jìng jiè de 。
有没有搞错，夫君可是分神中期的存在了，而对方在不久前，还仅仅洞玄，刚刚机缘巧合将瓶颈突破，踏入分神境界的。
With a flick of her jade hand, a black thread-like streak emerged, seemingly alive and flying forward.
qián hòu zhè cái duō jiǔ ， àn lǐ shuō ， tā lián jìng jiè dōu hái méi yǒu wěn gù ， zěn me kě néng zài yìng pīn zhōng jiàng dà gē bī tuì ne ？
前后这才多久，按理说，他连境界都还没有稳固，怎么可能在硬拼中将大哥逼退呢？
A hundred feet away, Lin Xuan turned his head sharply. His eyes glowed with intense light as he saw clearly.
bǎi sī bù dé qí jiě ！
百思不得其解！
This wasn't just a thread; it was composed of countless willow leaf-shaped demon blades.
rán ér shì shí bǎi zài yǎn qián ， zhì yí yě méi yǒu yòng chǔ ， yuán běn jiù zhī dào zhè xiǎo zi liǎo de ， dàn wàn wàn méi yǒu xiǎng dào huì biāo hàn dào rú cǐ chéng dù 。
然而事实摆在眼前，置疑也没有用处，原本就知道这小子了得，但万万没有想到会彪悍到如此程度。
Each blade was three feet long, thin like cicada wings, with faint glimmers of light on their surfaces, indicating they had been forged through countless trials and tribulations. Lin Xuan roughly counted them—seventy-two in total. Truly formidable.
nǚ zǐ de liǎn shàng mǎn shì hài rán zhī sè ， bù guò tā zì rán gù bù shàng qù gǎn tàn shén me 。
女子的脸上满是骇然之色，不过她自然顾不上去感叹什么。
The streak flew mid-air, making a clattering sound as all the demon blades scattered like flowers, surrounding Lin Xuan.
yù shǒu yī fú ， zhǐ wén sōu sōu zhī shēng bù jué yú ěr duǒ ， yī dào hēi sè de pǐ liàn suí zhe cǐ nǚ de dòng zuò ， fú xiàn ér chū ， rú yǒu shēng mìng de huó wù ， xiàng qián miàn fēi lüè ér qù le 。
玉手一拂，只闻嗖嗖之声不绝于耳朵，一道黑色的匹练随着此女的动作，浮现而出，如有生命的活物，像前面飞掠而去了。
Then, with blinding speed, they slashed at his vital points.
bǎi yú zhàng yuǎn chù ， lín xuān sà rán zhuǎn guò tóu lú ， yǎn zhōng jīng máng dà zuò ， tā kàn de qīng qīng chǔ chǔ 。
百余丈远处，林轩飒然转过头颅，眼中精芒大做，他看得清清楚楚。
This woman's attack was indeed ruthless; there was no probing or hesitation, just an intent to kill him.
zhè nǎ lǐ shì shén me pǐ liàn ， ér shì yóu yī bǐng yī bǐng de liǔ yè mó dāo zǔ chéng de 。
这哪里是什么匹练，而是由一柄一柄的柳叶魔刀组成的。
If another cultivator of the same stage were in Lin Xuan's position, such a vicious move would be challenging. But for Lin Xuan, it was merely showboating.
rèn yī bǐng mó dāo de xíng zhuàng dōu shì yī yàng de ， zhǎng sān chǐ yú ，bao rú chán yì ， biǎo miàn yǐn yǐn hái yǒu liú guāng shǎn guò ， xiǎn rán měi yī bǐng mó dāo ， nà dōu shì jīng guò qiān chuí bǎi liàn de 。
任一柄魔刀的形状都是一样的，长三尺余，bao如蝉翼，表面隐隐还有流光闪过，显然每一柄魔刀，那都是经过千锤百炼的。
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and formed hand seals without thought. A red light flashed around him as nearly a hundred inch-long flying swords shot out.
lín xuān cū lüè yī shù ， jū rán yǒu qī shí èr bǐng zhī shù ， dàng zhēn shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
林轩粗略一数，居然有七十二柄之数，当真是非同小可。
The sword blades were crimson, thin like cicada wings, with faintly visible符文flashing on their surfaces—clearly extraordinary treasures. As they met the wind, they expanded rapidly to three feet long. These divine swords circled briefly before scattering like exploding pastries in all directions.
nà pǐ liàn fēi dào zhōng tú ，“ kuāng lāng ” yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， suǒ yǒu de mó dāo rú tiān nǚ sàn huā yì bān ， cháo zhe sì zhōu jī mǎo shè ， jiāng lín xuān wéi zài qí zhōng le 。
那匹练飞到中途，“哐啷”一声传入耳朵，所有的魔刀如天女散花一般，朝着四周激冇射，将林轩围在其中了。
Next, a dense shower of metallic clashing sounds erupted as each demon blade was intercepted by the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword.
suí hòu lì máng cì mù ， luàn dāo pī kǎn xiàng lín xuān shēn shàng de gè chù yào hài le 。
随后厉芒刺目，乱刀劈砍像林轩身上的各处要害了。
The woman gasped in shock, almost disbelieving her eyes. She knew the "Black Water Deva Blade" well; its power had been tested countless times. Forging this treasure required immense effort and time, with precious materials being consumed in large quantities. After all these struggles, she finally possessed it as a life-bound treasure.
cǐ nǚ chū shǒu dàng zhēn hěn dú 。
此女出手当真狠毒。
Previously, it was almost invincible against peers, even ancient demons feared it greatly. But now, what happened? In just one exchange, she had fallen into the lower hand.
gēn běn jiù méi yǒu bàn fēn shì tàn de yì tú ， ér shì zhí jiē xiǎng yào jiāng lín xuān zhì yú sǐ dì le 。
根本就没有半分试探的意图，而是直接想要将林轩置于死地了。
No… not just that.
ruò shì huàn yī míng tóng jiē xiū shì yǔ lín xuān yì dì ér chǔ ， zhè yàng hěn là de zhāo shù xiǎng yào jiē xià hái zhēn yǒu jǐ fēn nán dù ， kě xī duì lín xuān lái shuō ， què chún shǔ bān mén nòng fǔ 。
若是换一名同阶修士与林轩易地而处，这样狠辣的招数想要接下还真有几分难度，可惜对林轩来说，却纯属班门弄斧。
The woman's face suddenly changed; a drop of blood trickled from her mouth. Clearly, she had been injured.
lín xuān méi shāo yī tiāo ， xiǎng dōu bù xiǎng de liǎng shǒu qiā jué ， dùn shí zhōu shēn hóng guāng yī shǎn ， zhí jiē fēi shè chū jìn bǎi kǒu cùn xǔ zhǎng de xiǎo jiàn 。
林轩眉梢一挑，想都不想的两手掐诀，顿时周身红光一闪，直接飞射出近百口寸许长的小剑。
Just then, Lin Xuan's Nine Palaces Momentary Sword displayed its divine might, severing several demon blades in half.
jiàn rèn zuò huǒ hóng sè ， tóng yàng yǔ chán yì yī yàng bao， biǎo miàn hái yǒu mǐ lì dà xiǎo de fú wén ruò yǐn ruò xiàn de tūn tǔ ， yī kàn jiù shì fēi tóng yī bān de bǎo wù ， yíng fēng jiù zhǎng ， zhuǎn shùn jiān yě yǒu sān chǐ lái rén ”， zhè xiē xiān jiàn lüè yī pán xuán ， yě shì rú tóng bào liè kāi de miàn diǎn ， xiàng zhe sì zhōu fēi jiàn 。
剑刃做火红色，同样与蝉翼一样bao，表面还有米粒大小的符文若隐若现的吞吐，一看就是非同一般的宝物，迎风就涨，转瞬间也有三尺来人”，这些仙剑略一盘旋，也是如同爆裂开的面点，向着四周飞溅。
Fortunately, there weren't many. As life-bound treasures, the damage to this woman would have been far worse if more had been destroyed.
jǐn jiē zhe ， mì rú yǔ diǎn yì bān de jīn tiě jiāo míng shēng dà zuò ， měi yī bǐng mó dāo ， hái méi lái de jí fēi dào lín xuān shēn qián ， jiù yǐ bèi jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jié zhù 。
紧接着，密如雨点一般的金铁交鸣声大做，每一柄魔刀，还没来得及飞到林轩身前，就已被九宫须臾剑截住。
But even so, it made her wary. The Black Water Deva Blade was a legendary treasure, and she had obtained it by chance from an ancient text, after much effort. It had always been invincible against peers, but now…
nà nǚ mó dà jīng shī sè ， yī shí jiān jī hū yǒu diǎn bù xiāng xìn zì jǐ de yǎn jīng le 。
那女魔大惊失色，一时间几乎有点不相信自己的眼睛了。
Of course, the woman wasn't arrogant enough to believe that the Black Water Deva Blade was invincible in the world. But facing peers, even if she couldn't defeat them, shouldn't have no counterattack at all.
zì jǐ de shén tōng zì jǐ zuì qīng chǔ ， zhè “ hēi shuǐ xiū luó dāo ” wēi lì rú hé ， tā men kě shì xīn rú míng jìng shì de ， wèi le liàn zhì cǐ wù ， tā zì jǐ dōu shuō bù qīng jiū jìng chī le duō shǎo kǔ ， qián hòu jiū jìng fèi le duō shǎo bō zhé ， héng kuà de shí jiān zàn qiě bù tí ， xiāo hào de zhēn xī bǎo wù yě shì lìng rén chēng mù ， hǎo bù róng yì cái ràng zhè chuán shuō zhōng de jì zǎi ， chéng wéi le zì jǐ de běn mìng bǎo wù 。
自己的神通自己最清楚，这“黑水修罗刀”威力如何，他们可是心如明镜似的，为了炼制此物，她自己都说不清究竟吃了多少苦，前后究竟费了多少波折，横跨的时间暂且不提，消耗的珍稀宝物也是令人瞠目，好不容易才让这传说中的记载，成为了自己的本命宝物。
If the opponent were a late-stage Immortal Tribulation monster, she would accept it. But this young man who had just entered Spirit Cultivation and hadn't stabilized his realm destroyed her painstakingly forged treasure with one move. How could she be convinced?
yǐ qián duì shàng tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě ， jī hū shì wú wǎng ér bù lì de ， biàn shì tóng jiē gǔ mó ， duì cǐ bǎo yě jì dàn dào jí chù ， kě rú jīn zěn me huí shì ， cái yí gè zhào miàn ， jiù bèi bī là xià fēng 。
以前对上同阶修仙者，几乎是无往而不利的，便是同阶古魔，对此宝也忌惮到极处，可如今怎么回事，才一个照面，就被逼落下风。
Fortunately, her combat experience was rich; despite being shocked, only three blades were destroyed, which wasn't significant compared to the number of life-bound treasures.
bù …… bù zhǐ shì xià fēng 。
不……不止是下风。
