cǐ nǚ yù shǒu tái qǐ ， dòng zuò qīng yíng yǐ jí ， zuò le yí gè fèng diǎn tóu de dòng zuò 。 mèng
此女玉手抬起，动作轻盈以极，做了一个凤点头的动作。夢
The woman raised her jade-like hand, moving with extraordinary grace. She performed a phoenix nod.
hēi máng dà zuò ， shèng xià de liù shí jiǔ kǒu hēi shuǐ xiū luó dāo bèi hēi máng bāo guǒ ， wēi lì jìng shì yī xià zi bào zēng le xǔ duō ……。
黑芒大做，剩下的六十九口黑水修罗刀被黑芒包裹，威力竟似一下子暴增了许多……。
Black light surged, enveloping the remaining sixty-nine Black Water Deva Knives, significantly boosting their power.
jīn tiě jiāo míng de shēng yīn bù jué yú ěr duǒ ， yī zhèn dīng dīng dāng dāng de luàn xiǎng zhī hòu ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jū rán bèi yìng shēng shēng de dàn kāi le 。
金铁交鸣的声音不绝于耳朵，一阵叮叮当当的乱响之后，九宫须臾剑居然被硬生生的弹开了。
The sound of metal clashing filled his ears non-stop. After a jingle and clang, the Nine Palaces Mustache Sword was forcefully repelled.
suí hòu nà xiē mó dāo cháo zhe tiān kōng jī shè ， wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé 。
随后那些魔刀朝着天空激射，往中间一合。
Following that, those demon blades shot towards the sky, converging in the middle.
hōng lōng lóng de shēng yīn dà zuò ， mó qì fān yǒng ， zhěng gè tiān kōng jū rán yīn chén xià qù le ， fāng yuán shù lǐ ， kuáng fēng dà zuò ， hēi sè de mó qì bào zhǎng kāi lái ， zhěng gè tiān sè ， nà shì yuè fā de yīn yù le ， suī fēi shēn shǒu bù jiàn wǔ zhǐ ， dàn gěi rén de gǎn jué ， yě fǎng fú shì bàng wǎn shí fēn ， tài yáng wán quán là xià le shān pō 。
轰隆隆的声音大做，魔气翻涌，整个天空居然阴沉下去了，方圆数里，狂风大作，黑色的魔气暴涨开来，整个天色，那是越发的阴郁了，虽非伸手不见五指，但给人的感觉，也仿佛是傍晚时分，太阳完全落下了山坡。
Rumbling sounds echoed loudly as dark demonic energy surged, darkening the entire sky. Within several miles, fierce winds howled, black demonic energy surged, making the sky even more gloomy. Though not pitch-black, it felt like dusk with the sun setting far below the horizon.
suí hòu cóng nà mó qì zhī zhōng ， yǐn yǐn chuán lái lì guǐ de sī hǒu ， yòu fǎng fú è mó de páo xiāo ， zǒng zhī jiū jìng shì shén me ， yī shí piàn kè ， hěn nán fēn biàn qīng chǔ 。
随后从那魔气之中，隐隐传来厉鬼的嘶吼，又仿佛恶魔的咆哮，总之究竟是什么，一时片刻，很难分辨清楚。
From within the dark aura, faint cries of a厉鬼 and devilish roars could be vaguely heard. It was hard to distinguish what exactly they were in such a short time.
ér zài mí fēng zhī zhōng ， yī bǐng dà dào bù kě sī yì de mó dāo chū xiàn zài le miàn qián ， cháng zú yǒu bǎi zhàng ， biǎo miàn chán rào zhāo shù shí tiáo mò jiāo 。
而在靡风之中，一柄大到不可思议的魔刀出现在了面前，长足有百丈，表面缠绕着数十条墨蛟。
Amidst the swirling wind, an inconceivably large demon sword appeared before him. At least a hundred zhang long, it was wrapped with dozens of black dragons.
měi yī tiáo mò jiāo jiē zhǐ yǒu liǎng sān zhàng zhǎng ， rán ér miàn mào què zhēng níng dào jí chù ， nǎi shì yóu shuǐ shǔ xìng de mó qì zǔ chéng de 。
每一条墨蛟皆只有两三丈长，然而面貌却狰狞到极处，乃是由水属性的魔气组成的。
Each dragon was only two or three zhang long but had a terrifyingly fierce appearance, composed entirely of water attribute demonic energy.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， liǎn shàng yě liú lù chū tàn wéi guān zhǐ zhī sè 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，脸上也流露出叹为观止之色。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he showed a look of admiration on his face.
“ jù jiàn shù ！”
“巨剑术！”
"Great Sword Technique!"
duì yú tā men zhè zhǒng děng jiē de cún zài lái shuō ， cǐ shén tōng méi yǒu fēn háo chū qí ， rán ér yì bān de xiū xiān zhě ， yě zuì duō ràng bīng rèn zhǎng dà shí yú bèi ， yǒu gè qī bā zhàng zhǎng dǐng tiān le ， yǎn qián de mó dāo ， què tū pò le zhè ge xiàn zhì ， bǎi zhàng zhī jù ， wēi lì zàn qiě bù tí ， guāng shì shēng wēi jiù lìng rén tàn wéi guān zhǐ 。
对于他们这种等阶的存在来说，此神通没有分毫出奇，然而一般的修仙者，也最多让兵刃涨大十余倍，有个七八丈长顶天了，眼前的魔刀，却突破了这个限制，百丈之巨，威力暂且不提，光是声威就令人叹为观止。
For beings at their level, this divine power was nothing out of the ordinary. However, most cultivators could only make their weapons grow to ten or so zhang long at best. The demon sword before him had surpassed that limit, reaching a hundred zhang in length. While its power wasn't mentioned, its sheer presence was awe-inspiring.
bù kuì shì fēn shén qī gǔ mó ， zhè yī chū shǒu guǒ rán shì chāo fán tuō sú ！
不愧是分神期古魔，这一出手果然是超凡脱俗！
No wonder it was an ancient devil of the Formation Spirit stage; this move truly transcended the mundane!
lín xuān xīn zhōng yě àn àn pèi fú ， dàn yě méi yǒu rèn hé wèi jù zhī sè 。
林轩心中也暗暗佩服，但也没有任何畏惧之色。
Lin Xuan secretly admired but showed no fear.
jù jiàn shù tā zì rán yě shì huì de ， bù guò fǎ shù yǒu zhuān jīng ， lín xuān shè liè bǎi jiā ， duì xiū xiān jiè gè mài de gōng fǎ dōu yǒu suǒ xué ， bó cǎi zhòng cháng ， suī rán yě yǒu hǎo chù ， dàn jù tǐ dào měi yī xiàng wǔ xíng fǎ shù ， chú fēi tè bié piān hǎo de ， què méi yǒu liàn dào jí shēn zhī chù 。
巨剑术他自然也是会的，不过法术有专精，林轩涉猎百家，对修仙界各脉的功法都有所学，博采众长，虽然也有好处，但具体到每一项五行法术，除非特别偏好的，却没有练到极深之处。
He naturally knew Great Sword Technique as well, though his expertise lay elsewhere. He had studied various schools of cultivation techniques and borrowed from many sources, which brought its own advantages. However, he hadn't delved deeply into any specific elemental technique unless it was particularly favored.
bì jìng lín xuān tà rù xiān tú ， yě bù guò yī qiān yú zài ， suī rán yǒu gè zhǒng líng dān miào yào zuò wèi fǔ zhù ， dàn zài nì tiān yě bì jìng shì yǒu jí xiàn de 。
毕竟林轩踏入仙途，也不过一千余载，虽然有各种灵丹妙药做为辅助，但再逆天也毕竟是有极限的。
After all, Lin Xuan had only been on the path to immortality for over a thousand years. Even with various elixirs and medicines as support, his abilities still had limits.
jù jiàn shù tā yě néng shī zhǎn ， dàn xiāng duì yǔ cǐ nǚ mó ， kě jiù chéng bān mén nòng fǔ ， bù guò méi yǒu guān xì ， duì fāng cǐ shén tōng zài xuán miào yòu rú hé ， yě xū dǎ dé dào cái yǒu yòng chù 。
巨剑术他也能施展，但相对与此女魔，可就成班门弄斧，不过没有关系，对方此神通再玄妙又如何，也需打得到才有用处。
He could perform Great Sword Technique but would be like a clown showing off in front of a master. However, it didn't matter; no matter how profound their divine power was, it mattered only if they hit him.
shuí shuō dòu fǎ jiù zhǐ yǒu yìng jiē yìng káng yī tú ， néng shēn néng qū dà zhàng fū ， lín xuān shēn xíng yī shǎn ， yǐ cóng yuán dì xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
谁说斗法就只有硬接硬扛一途，能伸能屈大丈夫，林轩身形一闪，已从原地消失不见。
One needn't fight head-on all the time. A flexible man adapts. Lin Xuan vanished from his spot with a flash.
shùn yí zài tā men zhè zhǒng děng jí de cún zài yǎn zhōng ， bìng méi yǒu shén me liǎo bù qǐ ， rán ér lín xuān rú jīn jìn jiē dào le fēn shén qī ， suǒ shī zhǎn de jiǔ tiān wēi bù ， nǎ lǐ hái shì shùn yí kě bǐ 。
瞬移在他们这种等级的存在眼中，并没有什么了不起，然而林轩如今进阶到了分神期，所施展的九天微步，哪里还是瞬移可比。
Instant teleportation wasn’t impressive to beings at this level, but Lin Xuan had advanced to the Formation Spirit stage. The Nine Heavens Microstep he used was far more than mere instant teleportation.
qí xuán miào chéng dù nán yǐ yán yù ， bié de bù tí ， nà qíng tiān mó rèn hěn hěn zhǎn luò ， zhěng gè kōng jiān dōu chū xiàn le tā xiàn niǔ qū ， fāng yuán shù lǐ ， jiē bèi bō jí ， ruò shì shùn yí ， shòu cǐ yǐng xiǎng ， gēn běn bié xiǎng shī zhǎn chū lái ， shèn zhì yǒu kě néng ， yī nuó yí ， zì jǐ jiù xiān bèi kōng jiān zhī lì sī chě chéng jǐ bàn 。
其玄妙程度难以言喻，别的不提，那擎天魔刃狠狠斩落，整个空间都出现了塌陷扭曲，方圆数里，皆被波及，若是瞬移，受此影响，根本别想施展出来，甚至有可能，一挪移，自己就先被空间之力撕扯成几瓣。
Its complexity was indescribable. While the Heaven-Bearing Demon Blade fell heavily, causing space itself to collapse and distort, a few miles were affected. Instant teleportation would be impossible under such influence; one might even get torn apart by spatial forces.
rán ér jiǔ tiān wēi bù què shì wú ài ， zhǐ jiàn líng guāng yī shǎn ， lín xuān yǐ zài shù bǎi zhàng kāi wài 。
然而九天微步却是无碍，只见灵光一闪，林轩已在数百丈开外。
However, the Nine Heavens Microstep posed no hindrance. Lin Xuan appeared several hundred zhang away as light flashed.
yuán běn kě yǐ nuó yí dé gèng yuǎn ， bù guò cǐ shí cǐ kè ， jǐn jǐn shì jiāng duì fāng de gōng jī bì guò ， ér fēi xiǎng yào táo tuō ， suǒ yǐ shù bǎi zhàng yǐ jīng gòu le 。
原本可以挪移得更远，不过此时此刻，仅仅是将对方的攻击避过，而非想要逃脱，所以数百丈已经够了。
He could have moved further but merely avoided the attack for now rather than trying to escape. Several hundred zhang was enough.
cóng zhè yì diǎn ， yě kě yǐ kàn chū ， lín xuān de jiǔ tiān wēi bù ， yǐ dào lú huǒ chún qīng ， shōu fā yóu xīn de dì bù ， bì jìng cǐ gōng fǎ de chuàng shǐ zhě ， jiǔ tiān xuán zūn de shí lì ， yǔ lín xuān xiāng bǐ ， yě shì yuǎn yuǎn bù jí ， gēn běn jiù bú shì yí gè shù liàng jí 。
从这一点，也可以看出，林轩的九天微步，已到炉火纯青，收发由心的地步，毕竟此功法的创始者，九天玄尊的实力，与林轩相比，也是远远不及，根本就不是一个数量级。
This showed that his Nine Heavens Microstep had reached a level of mastery, where he could control its use at will. After all, the founder of this technique, the Nine Heavens Profound Sovereign, was far weaker compared to Lin Xuan and belonged to an entirely different tier.
yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lín xuān jiāng nà mó rèn de pò fǎ yī jī duǒ guò ， dì miàn què zāo yāng le ， zhǐ jiàn hēi sè de mó fēng zòng héng dǎn hé ， fēi shā zǒu shí ， shì xiàn wán quán bèi zhē zhù 。
一声巨响传入耳朵，林轩将那魔刃的破法一击躲过，地面却遭殃了，只见黑色的魔风纵横掸阖，飞沙走石，视线完全被遮住。
A loud explosion echoed as Lin Xuan dodged the demon blade's attack. The ground suffered instead, black demonic winds swirling, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere, obscuring his vision.
rán ér lín xuān xiū liàn yǒu tiān fèng shén mù ， yī jiù kàn de qīng qīng chǔ chǔ ， zhǐ jiàn zhěng gè dì miàn jū rán bèi yìng shēng shēng de jié wèi liǎng duàn ， yī tiáo jù dà de gōu hè yìng rù yǎn lián ， zhǎng shù lǐ ， zhì yú yǒu duō shēn ， gèng shì nán yǐ gū jì ， wú shù de yán jiāng ， cóng lǐ miàn fēng yōng ér chū ， biàn dì liú tǎng ， sì zhōu de wēn dù ， yě zhòu rán shàng shēng le xǔ duō ， dá dào cháng rén nán yǐ rěn shòu de dì bù ， nà jǐng xiàng ， jiù yǔ huǒ shān pēn fā shì yī yàng de 。
然而林轩修炼有天凤神目，依旧看得清清楚楚，只见整个地面居然被硬生生的截为两断，一条巨大的沟壑映入眼帘，长数里，至于有多深，更是难以估计，无数的岩浆，从里面蜂拥而出，遍地流淌，四周的温度，也骤然上升了许多，达到常人难以忍受的地步，那景象，就与火山喷发是一样的。
However, with his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes, he could still see clearly. The ground was split in two, a huge chasm stretching for several miles. Its depth was impossible to estimate as countless lava surged out, flowing everywhere. The temperature rose sharply, making it unbearable for ordinary people. The scene resembled a volcanic eruption.
jǐn jǐn yī jī ， wēi lì jiù biāo hàn dào rú cǐ dì bù ， lín xuān yě yǒu xiē tàn wéi guān zhǐ le 。
仅仅一击，威力就彪悍到如此地步，林轩也有些叹为观止了。
Just one strike and the power was so formidable that Lin Xuan couldn't help but be impressed.
ér zhè ge guò chéng shuō qǐ lái fán fù ， qí shí shì zài zhuǎn shùn jiān wán chéng de ， lín xuān gāng gāng yòng jiǔ tiān wēi bù tuì kāi ， yǐ tā de xìng gé ， zì rán bú huì shì guāng ái dǎ bù huán shǒu de rén wù 。
而这个过程说起来繁复，其实是在转瞬间完成的，林轩刚刚用九天微步退开，以他的性格，自然不会是光挨打不还手的人物。
This process seemed complex when described but was completed in an instant. After retreating with Nine Heavens Microstep, Lin Xuan wouldn’t just take hits without retaliating.
rán ér ， zhè yī cì què shì lín xuān dà yì le ……， wēi jī bìng wèi jiě chú 。
然而，这一次却是林轩大意了……，危机并未解除。
However, this time he had been careless... the danger wasn't over yet.
bù cuò ， tā jiāng nà mó rèn de pò fǎ yī jī duǒ guò 。
不错，他将那魔刃的破法一击躲过。
Indeed, he dodged the demon blade's attack.
rán ér ， hěn kuài yòu yǒu lóng yín shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lín xuān tái qǐ tóu ， jiù kàn jiàn jìn bǎi tiáo mò jiāo zhāng yá wǔ zhǎo ， xiàng zhe zì jǐ pū guò lái le 。
然而，很快又有龙吟声传入耳朵，林轩抬起头，就看见近百条墨蛟张牙舞爪，像着自己扑过来了。
But soon, a dragon-like roar echoed as Lin Xuan looked up to see nearly a hundred black dragons lunging at him.
nà shēng shì ， yǔ zì jǐ xī rì de bǎi lóng zhī yá xiāng bǐ ， háo bù xùn sè ， shèn zhì yào qiáng shàng xǔ duō 。
那声势，与自己昔日的百龙之牙相比，毫不逊色，甚至要强上许多。
Their momentum was no less than his former Hundred Dragon Fang, even surpassing it. These black dragons were originally wrapped around the Deva Blade but had grown tenfold in size now.
ér zhè xiē mò jiāo ， yuán běn shì chán rào zài nà xiū luó mó rèn shàng de ， nà shí hòu ， zhǎng bù guò liǎng sān zhàng yú ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， què bào zēng le shí bèi bù zhǐ 。
而这些墨蛟，原本是缠绕在那修罗魔刃上的，那时候，长不过两三丈余，此时此刻，却暴增了十倍不止。
Lin Xuan's face showed rare surprise; the opponent was using a chain attack. Don’t think dodging that Deva Blade means you’re safe.
lín xuān de liǎn shàng yě nán dé de lù chū le yī sī jīng yà zhī sè ， duì fāng shī zhǎn de jū rán shì lián huán gōng jī ， bié yǐ wéi duǒ guò le nà xiū luó dāo de pī kǎn jiù wàn shì dà jí 。
林轩的脸上也难得的露出了一丝惊讶之色，对方施展的居然是连环攻击，别以为躲过了那修罗刀的劈砍就万事大吉。
Lin Xuan’s expression was serious but fearless as he reached for his waist. A flash of light revealed a small, purple bell no taller than a foot. Various mysterious ancient patterns adorned its surface, with faint runes glowing.
lín xuān de liǎn sè yán sù wú bǐ ， dàn yě méi yǒu fēn háo wèi jù ， shēn shǒu xiàng yāo jiān mō qù ， zhǐ jiàn líng guāng yì qǐ ， yī kǒu xiǎo 、 zhōng chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ ， gāo bù guò chǐ xǔ ， biǎo miàn zuò zǐ sè ， gè zhǒng huā wén shén mì gǔ piáo ， hái yǒu fú wén ruò yǐn ruò xiàn de pēn bó 。
林轩的脸色严肃无比，但也没有分毫畏惧，伸手像腰间摸去，只见灵光一起，一口小、钟出现在了视线里，高不过尺许，表面做紫色，各种花纹神秘古朴，还有符文若隐若现的喷勃。
Then, Lin Xuan flicked his fingers, striking the surface of the bell. An incessant noise filled the air as countless black crows emerged from it.
suí hòu lín xuān qū zhǐ wēi dàn ， jī dǎ xiàng bǎi líng zhōng de biǎo miàn ， zhǐ wén guā zào shēng dà zuò ， jìng shì wú shù xíng rú wū yā de mó niǎo cóng lǐ miàn fēi chū lái le 。
随后林轩屈指微弹，击打像百灵钟的表面，只闻聒噪声大作，竟是无数形如乌鸦的魔鸟从里面飞出来了。
Their size was much larger than regular crows and had three demon eyes. Their bodies were enveloped in gray-white demonic flames.
rán ér tā men de tǐ jī ， què yǔ wū yā dà dé duō ， ér qiě shēng zhe sān zhǐ yāo mù ， hún shēn shàng xià ， bāo guǒ zhe yī céng huī bái sè de mó huǒ 。
然而它们的体积，却与乌鸦大得多，而且生着三只妖目，浑身上下，包裹着一层灰白色的魔火。
A chilling aura emanated. Though unsure about this fire's power, its appearance clearly indicated it wasn’t ordinary demonic flames.
yī gǔ yīn hán zhī qì pèi rán ér chū ， suī rán bù zhī dào cǐ huǒ wēi lì rú hé ， dàn yī kàn jiù zhī jué bú shì pǔ tōng de mó yàn kě yǐ bǐ nǐ de 。
一股阴寒之气沛然而出，虽然不知道此火威力如何，但一看就知绝不是普通的魔焰可以比拟的。
Though these crow corpses came from the Separation Stage’s Ten Thousand Beast Sovereign, they had been cultivated by Lin Xuan for hundreds of years, continually increasing their strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought them out to embarrass himself.
suī rán zhè shī yā shì dé zì lí hé qī de wàn shòu zūn zhě ， rán ér jīng guò lín xuān shù bǎi nián de péi yù ， wēi lì yě yì zhí zài zēng jiā zhī zhōng ， fǒu zé lín xuān zǎo jiù qì zhī bù yòng ， rú hé hái huì ná tā chū lái xiàn chǒu 。
虽然这尸鸦是得自离合期的万兽尊者，然而经过林轩数百年的培育，威力也一直在增加之中，否则林轩早就弃之不用，如何还会拿它出来献丑。
Other than size, one could instantly tell the power of a three-eyed crow corpse.
bié de zàn qiě bù tí ， cóng tǐ jī jiù kě yǐ yī yǎn fēn biàn sān yǎn shī yā de wēi lì 。
别的暂且不提，从体积就可以一眼分辨三眼尸鸦的威力。
With wingspan over three zhang, a few flaps produced thousands of wind blades.
yì zhǎn zú yǒu sān zhàng yǒu yú ， qīng qīng yī shàn ， shù qiān jì fēng rèn sà rán chū xiàn 。
翼展足有三丈有余，轻轻一扇，数千记风刃飒然出现。
Each blade was about a foot in diameter, emitting an unbearable stench and sharp cries. They were clearly different from ordinary wind blade techniques.
měi yī dào zhí jìng dōu yǒu chǐ xǔ ， sàn fà zhe zhōng rén yù ǒu de shī qì ， hái yǒu jiān míng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yī kàn jiù dà yì yú pǔ tōng de fēng rèn shù 。
每一道直径都有尺许，散发着中人欲呕的尸气，还有尖鸣声传入耳朵，一看就大异于普通的风刃术。
The black dragons weren't weak either, opening their blood-filled mouths to spew streams of water.
mò jiāo yě bù shì ruò ， zhāng kāi xuè pén dà kǒu ， cóng zuǐ bā lǐ pēn chū yī dào yòu yī dào de shuǐ zhù 。
墨蛟也不示弱，张开血盆大口，从嘴巴里喷出一道又一道的水柱。
These water streams were black with strong corrosive effects, just as formidable.
nà xiē shuǐ zhù nǎi shì hēi sè ， dài yǒu qiáng liè de fǔ shí xiào guǒ ， wēi lì tóng yàng shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
那些水柱乃是黑色，带有强烈的腐蚀效果，威力同样是非同小可。
Boom!
hōng ！
轰！
The entire sky shook as the demonic water streams collided with the evil ghost wind blades. The wind blades couldn’t withstand it, but the three-eyed crow corpses showed no fear.
zhěng gè tiān kōng dōu zài zhèn dòng ， shuǐ zhù yǔ xié guǐ fēng rèn hěn hěn de zhuàng jī zài yì qǐ ， fēng rèn jū rán bù dí ， rán ér nà xiē sān yǎn shī yā méi yǒu fēn háo de wèi jù 。
整个天空都在震动，水柱与邪鬼风刃狠狠的撞击在一起，风刃居然不敌，然而那些三眼尸鸦没有分毫的畏惧。
"Gua!"
“ gū ！”
“呱！”
An annoying sound filled his ears as the crows spat out gray-white corpse flames. These contained the corruption of dead bodies and were far more terrifying than the previous evil ghost wind blades.
lìng rén fán zào de jiào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà xiē shī yā yòu tǔ chū le huī bái sè de shī huǒ ， cǐ wù kě shì hán yǒu fǔ shī zhī dú ， wēi lì bǐ gāng gāng de xié guǐ fēng rèn hái yào kě pà xǔ duō 。
令人烦躁的叫声传入耳朵，那些尸鸦又吐出了灰白色的尸火，此物可是含有腐尸之毒，威力比刚刚的邪鬼风刃还要可怕许多。
PS: I'm about to leave for a writing conference, so updates will be sparse these days. Please bear with me. But rest assured, even though my backlog is small, I write daily and won't stop updating.
The woman raised her jade-like hand, moving with extraordinary grace. She performed a phoenix nod.
Black light surged, enveloping the remaining sixty-nine Black Water Deva Knives, significantly boosting their power.
The sound of metal clashing filled his ears non-stop. After a jingle and clang, the Nine Palaces Mustache Sword was forcefully repelled.
Following that, those demon blades shot towards the sky, converging in the middle.
Rumbling sounds echoed loudly as dark demonic energy surged, darkening the entire sky. Within several miles, fierce winds howled, black demonic energy surged, making the sky even more gloomy. Though not pitch-black, it felt like dusk with the sun setting far below the horizon.
From within the dark aura, faint cries of a厉鬼 and devilish roars could be vaguely heard. It was hard to distinguish what exactly they were in such a short time.
Amidst the swirling wind, an inconceivably large demon sword appeared before him. At least a hundred zhang long, it was wrapped with dozens of black dragons.
Each dragon was only two or three zhang long but had a terrifyingly fierce appearance, composed entirely of water attribute demonic energy.
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he showed a look of admiration on his face.
"Great Sword Technique!"
For beings at their level, this divine power was nothing out of the ordinary. However, most cultivators could only make their weapons grow to ten or so zhang long at best.

Lin Xuan’s expression was serious but fearless as he reached for his waist. A flash of light revealed a small, purple bell no taller than a foot. Various mysterious ancient patterns adorned its surface, with faint runes glowing.
Then, Lin Xuan flicked his fingers, striking the surface of the bell. An incessant noise filled the air as countless black crows emerged from it.
Their size was much larger than regular crows and had three demon eyes. Their bodies were enveloped in gray-white demonic flames.
A chilling aura emanated. Though unsure about this fire's power, its appearance clearly indicated it wasn’t ordinary demonic flames.
Though these crow corpses came from the Separation Stage’s Ten Thousand Beast Sovereign, they had been cultivated by Lin Xuan for hundreds of years, continually increasing their strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought them out to embarrass himself.
Other than size, one could instantly tell the power of a three-eyed crow corpse.
With wingspan over three zhang, a few flaps produced thousands of wind blades.
Each blade was about a foot in diameter, emitting an unbearable stench and sharp cries. They were clearly different from ordinary wind blade techniques.
The black dragons weren't weak either, opening their blood-filled mouths to spew streams of water.
These water streams were black with strong corrosive effects, just as formidable.
Boom!
The entire sky shook as the demonic water streams collided with the evil ghost wind blades. The wind blades couldn’t withstand it, but the three-eyed crow corpses showed no fear.
"Gua!"
An annoying sound filled his ears as the crows spat out gray-white corpse flames. These contained the corruption of dead bodies and were far more terrifying than the previous evil ghost wind blades.
