shà shí jiān ， qīng míng shēng dà zuò ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn de biǎo miàn ， yǒu yī dào dào de jiàn guāng mí sàn ér chū ， suí hòu gèng fā shēng le bù kě sī yì de yí mù ， nà xiē jiàn guāng lā shēn bào zhǎng ， jìng biàn huà chū le yī tóu tóu de jiāo lóng 。
霎时间，清鸣声大做，九宫须臾剑的表面，有一道道的剑光弥散而出，随后更发生了不可思议的一幕，那些剑光拉伸暴涨，竟变化出了一头头的蛟龙。
In an instant, a clear and resonant sound echoed. The surface of the Nine Palace Must-Instant Sword emitted streaks of sword light that gradually spread out. Then something unbelievable happened—these sword lights stretched and grew exponentially, transforming into dragons.
měi yī tóu dōu yǒu qī bā zhàng zhǎng ， bèi chì hóng sè de lín piàn bāo guǒ ， xiǎn rán yǔ xiān jiàn de shǔ xìng xiāng tóng ， zhè xiē jiāo lóng yě dōu wǔ xíng guī huǒ 。
每一头都有七八丈长，被赤红sè的鳞片包裹，显然与仙剑的属xìng相同，这些蛟龙也都五行归火。
Each dragon was about seven to eight zhang long, wrapped in scarlet scales, clearly belonging to the same category as the immortal swords. These dragons were all associated with fire.
cóng chǎng miàn lái shuō ， yǔ lín xuān xī rì yā xiāng dǐ de mì shù ， bǎi lóng zhī yá ， pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。
从场面来说，与林轩昔日压箱底的秘术，百龙之牙，颇有几分相似之处。
From a visual standpoint, this scene resembled Lin Xuan's secret technique from his past—Hundred Dragons' Fangs—in many ways.
lín xuān shuāng shǒu yī jiù zài wǔ ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， gèng duō de fǎ lì bèi zhù rù jìn qù le 。
林轩双手依旧在舞，随着他的动作，更多的法力被注入进去了。
Lin Xuan continued to dance with both hands, injecting more power into the technique with each movement. The fiery dragons raised their heads and circled around them, emitting awe-inspiring dragon roars that filled the air.
nà xiē huǒ lóng yáng qǐ tóu lú ， zài qí shēn cè pán xuán fēi wǔ ， dòng rén xīn pò de lóng hǒu shēng bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
那些火龙扬起头颅，在其身侧盘旋飞舞，动人心魄的龙吼声不停传入耳朵。
However, this was not yet over. As Lin Xuan's hands changed shape rapidly, these dragons actually transformed into seven at once, and the pressure from their attacks did not diminish. "Little guy, are you regretting it now? Who let you be so foolish as to try and stop a car with your arms?" The old monster's snarl echoed again, filled with mockery.
rán ér zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù ， suí zhe lín xuān shuāng shǒu biàn huàn bù yǐ ， nà xiē jiāo lóng jū rán yī huà wèi qī ， ér qiě měi yī tóu suǒ sàn fà chū lái de wēi yā ， dōu méi yǒu fēn háo jiǎn ruò ， dùn shí ， zhē bì zhù le bàn biān tiān kōng 。
然而这还没有结束，随着林轩双手变幻不已，那些蛟龙居然一化为七，而且每一头所散发出来的威压，都没有分毫减弱，顿时，遮蔽住了半边天空。
"Stopping a car with one's arm?" Lin Xuan showed no signs of panic or fear on his face: "Are you referring to yourself?"
páng biān de lǎo guài wù yě bù yóu de dà jīng shī sè， méi xiǎng dào lín xuān dāng cǐ jué jìng ， jū rán hái bǎo liú zhe rú cǐ wēi lì páng bó de mì shù shǒu duàn lái zhe 。
旁边的老怪物也不由得大惊失sè，没想到林轩当此绝境，居然还保留着如此威力磅礴的秘术手段来着。
"What use is it for a dead duck to be stubborn? Are you really so blind that you don't see the coffin before your eyes?"
bù guò tā men yī jiù bù kàn hǎo 。
不过他们依旧不看好。
The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster was extremely disdainful towards Lin Xuan's retort. While this kid's strength was decent, he had overstepped his bounds and would lose regardless of how much he complained.
duì shǒu tài qiáng le ， zhēng zhá yě méi yǒu yòng ？
对手太强了，挣扎也没有用？
After all, in the cultivation world, it was about power, not eloquence.
shì shí zhēn de rú cǐ me ， zhǐ yào shèng fù hái méi yǒu jué chū ， jiù méi yǒu rén qīng chǔ 。
事实真的如此么，只要胜负还没有决出，就没有人清楚。
However, was Lin Xuan truly as stubborn as he appeared?
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū lěng xiào zhī sè：“ jiàn zhèn yòu rú hé ， xiān shì shì lín mǒu de bǎi lóng zhī yá zài shuō 。”
林轩脸上lù出冷笑之sè：“剑阵又如何，先试试林某的百龙之牙再说。”
The answer was no. From the start, he knew that Hundred Dragons' Fangs could not withstand the opponent's sword array. So while using this technique, he prepared his backup plan.
yào zhī dào ， lín xuān suī huàn le xīn de běn mìng bǎo wù ， dàn jiǔ tiān míng yuè huán yě bìng méi yǒu yīn cǐ jiù làng fèi diào le ， ér shì zuò wéi cái liào ， róng rù le zhè xīn de xiān jiàn zhī zhōng 。
要知道，林轩虽换了新的本命宝物，但九天明月环也并没有因此就浪费掉了，而是作为材料，融入了这新的仙剑之中。
He raised both hands and formed a hand seal with each one. As he moved, a golden light burst out from behind him without any warning.
zhǐ bù guò rú jīn de jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn ， zhǐ shǔ huǒ ， gù ér suǒ shī zhǎn chū lái de bǎi lóng zhī yá yě jiù jǐn shèng xià huǒ lóng ， rán ér cǐ zhāo shì yǐ shī shù rén de fǎ lì ， yǐ jí zuò wéi chéng zài tǐ de bǎo wù wèi jī chǔ ， lín xuān rú jīn yǐ shì fēn shén qī xiū xiān zhě ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn de xuán miào yě shèng guò xī rì de míng yuè huán xǔ duō ， gù ér jí biàn zhǐ shèng xià dān shǔ xìng de huǒ lóng ， rán ér zhè zhāo de wēi lì ， què bǐ yǐ qián kuò dà le bǎi bèi hái duō 。
只不过如今的九宫须臾剑，只属火，故而所施展出来的百龙之牙也就仅剩下火龙，然而此招是以施术人的法力，以及作为承载体的宝物为基础，林轩如今已是分神期修仙者，九宫须臾剑的玄妙也胜过昔日的明月环许多，故而即便只剩下单属xìng的火龙，然而这招的威力，却比以前扩大了百倍还多。
It was dazzling and magnificent!
suí zhe tā yī shēng qīng hē ， huǒ lóng de páo xiāo yuè fā de zhèn ěr yù lóng ， kǒu zhōng yǒu chì jīn sè de huǒ yàn pēn tǔ ， zhāng yá wǔ zhǎo de xiàng zhe dí rén pū guò qù le 。
随着他一声轻喝，火龙的咆哮越发的震耳yù聋，口中有赤金sè的火焰喷吐，张牙舞爪的向着敌人扑过去了。
But this was just the beginning. The bright golden light grew even brighter until it transformed into a divine figure.
nà shēng shì ， nán yǐ yán shù ！
那声势，难以言述！
Initially blurry, the golden light began to grow crazily, becoming as bright as the sun!
páng guān zhě zàn qiě bù tí ， miàn duì tā de tiān jué lǎo guài yě xīn jīng bù yǐ ， bù guò hěn kuài ， tā de liǎn shàng yòu lù chū lěng xiào zhī sè， píng zhè ge jiù xiǎng yào duì kàng tā de xuán miào jiàn zhèn ， yī jiù shì tài …… bù zhī sǐ huó 。
旁观者暂且不提，面对他的天绝老怪也心惊不已，不过很快，他的脸上又lù出冷笑之sè，凭这个就想要对抗他的玄妙剑阵，依旧是太……不知死活。
A splendid and majestic golden light.
lǎo guài wù méi yǒu duō yú de dòng zuò ， jǐn jǐn shì shēn shēn hū xī ， zài yī cuī fǎ jué ， dùn shí ， nà xiē guāng tuán fēi lüè de sù dù ， bǐ gāng gāng kuài le yí bèi hái duō 。
老怪物没有多余的动作，仅仅是深深呼吸，再一催法诀，顿时，那些光团飞掠的速度，比刚刚快了一倍还多。
After a moment, the light condensed, revealing the original form of the divine figure. Its appearance was identical to Lin Xuan's, like his own shadow, but it had nine heads and eighteen arms, exuding an intimidating aura.
xià yī kè ！
下一刻！
The Lesser Luo Tian Divine Figure!
yǔ huǒ lóng hōng rán zhuàng zài yì qǐ le 。
与火龙轰然撞在一起了。
However, compared to before, there seemed to be some differences. The surface of the divine figure bore some patterns that appeared to be microcosmic arrays composed of unknown runes.
nà shēng shì ， nán yǐ yán shù ， zhěng gè kōng jiān dōu zài chàn dǒu ， tiān kōng zhōng ， líng guāng yào mù ， dà bàn gè tiān mù ， dōu bèi yī tuán bù tíng tūn tǔ de huǒ hóng sè líng yún gěi bù mǎn le 。
那声势，难以言述，整个空间都在颤抖，天空中，灵光耀目，大半个天幕，都被一团不停吞吐的火红sè灵云给布满了。
Undoubtedly, this would enhance the Lesser Luo Tian Divine Figure's power.
jīng rén de líng qì ， yóu lǐ miàn kuáng yǒng ér chū ， fù jìn de kōng jiān ， fǎng fú shì yī kuài pò bù ， bèi liǎng gǔ yì cháng qiáng dà de lì liàng bù tíng sī chě ， bù guò hěn kuài ， jiù fēn chū le shèng fù 。
惊人的灵气，由里面狂涌而出，附近的空间，仿佛是一块破布，被两股异常强大的力量不停撕扯，不过很快，就分出了胜负。
Then the divine figure flipped its hand, revealing an ancient scroll.
lín xuān de bǎi lóng zhī yá gù rán wēi lì bù xiǎo ， kě yǔ duì fāng de jiàn zhèn xiāng bǐ ， hái shì yǒu xiē xiǎo wū jiàn dà wū 。
林轩的百龙之牙固然威力不小，可与对方的剑阵相比，还是有些小巫见大巫。
The Mountain and Golden Phoenix Scroll!
hěn kuài ， nà líng yún zhōng de jīn sè， jiù yā guò le hóng sè， huǒ lóng suī rán bù tíng de pēn huǒ ， dàn yǐ míng xiǎn zhī chēng bú zhù 。
很快，那灵云中的金sè，就压过了红sè，火龙虽然不停的喷火，但已明显支撑不住。
This was one of the immortals' treasures Lin Xuan obtained in the demon realm. The divine figure held both ends of the scroll, slowly unfolding it.
“ xiǎo jiā huo ， xiàn zài cái hòu huǐ ma ， shuí ràng nǐ nà me yú chǔn ， jū rán bù zì liàng lì de táng bì dǎng chē ？”
“小家伙，现在才后悔吗，谁让你那么愚蠢，居然不自量力的螳臂挡车？”
A flash of red smoke appeared, and nine mountain peaks came into view. They were of varying heights but exuded an overwhelming grandeur. Soon, a cacophony filled the air as countless firebirds the size of fists flew down from these mountains.
lǎo guài wù de níng xiào zài cì chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lǐ miàn chōng mǎn le jī cháo zhī sè。
老怪物的狞笑再次传入耳朵，里面充满了讥嘲之sè。
The three-legged golden phoenixes numbered in the hundreds, though not enough to block out the sky. With their deafening cries, they fiercely flew towards the front.
“ táng bì dǎng chē ？” lín xuān liǎn shàng què sī háo huāng luàn yě wú ， gèng bú yào shuō kàn jiàn wèi jù zhī sè：“ gé xià shì zài shuō zì jǐ me ？”
“螳臂挡车？”林轩脸上却丝毫慌乱也无，更不要说看见畏惧之sè：“阁下是在说自己么？”
These golden phoenixes were illusions conjured by divine power and did not know fear. One dove into the spirit cloud, gaining support from them. The Hundred Dragons' Fangs retreated slightly but could not reverse the tide; the sword array still dominated.
“ sǐ yā zi zuǐ yìng yòu yǒu hé yòng chù ， nǐ zhēn shì bù jiàn guān cái bù luò lèi me ？”
“死鸭子嘴硬又有何用处，你真是不见棺材不落泪么？”
Lin Xuan's brows furrowed as he roared. The hands holding the scroll behind him shook fiercely, with no other movements. Suddenly, the nine mountain peaks floating above his head grew exponentially.
duì yú lín xuān de fǎn chún xiāng jī ， tiān jué lǎo guài shì bù xiè yǐ jí ， zhè xiǎo zi de shí lì hái suàn kě yǐ ， dàn wèi miǎn tài bù zhī jìn tuì le xiē ， shū le jiù shì shū le ， zuǐ bā shàng kōng zì bù fú ， yòu yǒu hé yòng chù ？
对于林轩的反chún相讥，天绝老怪是不屑以极，这小子的实力还算可以，但为免太不知进退了些，输了就是输了，嘴巴上空自不服，又有何用处？
The smallest one, originally only a hundred zhang high, now soared ten times higher, becoming a towering thousand-zhang giant. The others followed suit and crashed towards the spirit cloud.
yào zhī dào xiū xiān jiè shì yǐ shí lì shuō huà de ， yòu bú shì bǐ shuí gèng néng shuō 。
要知道修仙界是以实力说话的，又不是比谁更能说。
Boom!
rán ér lín xuān dàng zhēn shì zuǐ yìng ma ？
然而林轩当真是嘴硬吗？
The entire space trembled as even a single mountain peak's impact was enough to break one's heart. Imagine nine of them in quick succession.
dá àn dāng rán shì fǒu dìng de 。
答案当然是否定的。
The spirit cloud churned violently, red light blazing, while the golden glow dimmed significantly.
tā cóng yī kāi shǐ ， jiù liào dào zhè bǎi lóng zhī yá ， shì dí bù guò duì fāng de ， suǒ yǐ zài fā chū zhè zhāo de tóng shí ， tā yǐ zài zhǔn bèi hòu shǒu 。
他从一开始，就料到这百龙之牙，是敌不过对方的，所以在发出这招的同时，他已在准备后手。
The situation seemed to have reversed.
zhǐ jiàn tā shǒu tái qǐ ， zuǒ yòu shǒu gè niē le yī dào fǎ yìn ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， sī háo zhēng zhào yě wú ， yī tuán jīn máng cóng lín xuān de bèi hòu bào shè ér chū 。
只见他手抬起，左右手各捏了一道法印，随着他的动作，丝毫征兆也无，一团金芒从林轩的背后爆射而出。
Such changes left the five observers speechless. The Star Moon City Four Elders were shocked, and the dragon-named youth was both terrified and elated.
yào yǎn cì mù ， kàn shàng qù zūn guì huá měi dào le jí chù ！
耀眼刺目，看上去尊贵华美到了极处！
Unfortunately, his joy lasted only a few breaths before another change occurred.
rán ér zhè bù guò shì kāi shǐ bà le 。
然而这不过是开始罢了。
"Humph."
nà yào yǎn de jīn máng yuè lái yuè liàng ， suí hòu jìng biàn huà chū le yī zūn fǎ xiàng 。
那耀眼的金芒越来越亮，随后竟变化出了一尊法相。
With a cold snort, the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster's avatar began to dance with both hands. Spell after spell shot from his fingertips into the void in front of him.
chū shǐ hái yǒu diǎn mó hú ， dàn jǐn jiē zhe ， nà yào yǎn de jīn guāng ， què kāi shǐ fēng kuáng de zī zhǎng 。
初始还有点模糊，但紧接着，那耀眼的金光，却开始疯狂的滋长。
Then the golden light of the spirit cloud grew brighter, while the red hue gradually faded like a fleeting flower.
biàn dé bǐ tài yáng hái yào míng liàng ！
变得比太阳还要明亮！
"Little Lin, I didn't expect you to have so many secret techniques and treasures. But what does that matter? The power of my sword array has only just reached three-tenths of its full strength. Kid, give up now; no amount of struggle will help."
huá měi ér zūn guì de jīn sè qiāng máng 。
华美而尊贵的金sè羌芒。
"What? Only three-tenths?"
shǎo qǐng ， nà guāng máng yī liǎn ， xiǎn chū le fǎ xiàng de yuán xíng lái róng mào yǔ lín xuān bié wú èr zhì ， jiù fǎng fú zì jǐ de yǐng zi ， rán ér què yǒu jiǔ tóu shí bā bì ， yī gǔ lìng rén wèi jù de qì xī ， dùn shí pèi rán ér qǐ 。
少顷，那光芒一敛，显出了法相的原形来容貌与林轩别无二致，就仿佛自己的影子，然而却有九头十八臂，一股令人畏惧的气息，顿时沛然而起。
As an observer, Jingkong was also shocked. Was it true that with such a mere three-tenths of his power, he could annihilate all the cultivators present?
xiǎo luó tiān fǎ xiàng ！
小罗天法相！
The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster was indeed the top figure in the cultivation world, but did he really have so much strength?
rán ér yǔ yǐ qián xiāng bǐ ， sì hū lüè yǒu bù tóng zhī chù ， fǎ xiàng de shēn tǐ biǎo miàn ， duō chū le yī xiē huā wén mú yàng de dōng xī 。
然而与以前相比，似乎略有不同之处，法相的身体表面，多出了一些花纹模样的东西。
Was this just an attempt to intimidate them?
bù ， bú duì ， zhè nǎ lǐ shì shén me huā wén ， gēn běn jiù shì yóu bù zhī míng fú wén ， suǒ zǔ chéng de wēi xíng fǎ zhèn 。
不，不对，这哪里是什么花纹，根本就是由不知名符文，所组成的微型法阵。
"Brother Hui, what do you think?" The big monk turned his head.
wú yí ， duì yú xiǎo luó tiān fǎ xiàng de shí lì ， jiāng yǒu jiā chéng de xiào guǒ 。
无疑，对于小罗天法相的实力，将有加成的效果。
"I don't know either."
suí hòu nà fǎ xiàng de shǒu zhǎng yī fān ， yī fú gǔ piáo de huà juàn yìng rù yǎn lián 。
随后那法相的手掌一翻，一幅古朴的画卷映入眼帘。
The gray-robed cultivator shook his head. While his eyes were among the best in terms of discernment, this battle could not be judged by common sense; it was full of twists and turns. He had thought Lin Xuan would have fallen long ago, but that kid repeatedly surprised everyone, turning the tide. The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster lived up to his reputation as a master who did not disappoint in critical moments, even with few treasures, his life-prolonging technique and this sword array were enough to turn the tide.
shān yuè jīn wū tú ！
山岳金乌图！
So he didn't want to guess; it was too risky. Whether the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster said he had only used three-tenths of his strength was true or a psychological tactic, only heaven, earth, and himself knew.
zhèng shì lín xuān zài mó jiè dé dào de lìng wài yī jiàn líng bǎo le 。
正是林轩在魔界得到的另外一件灵宝了。
But regardless, Lin Xuan's hard-won advantage vanished in an instant, leaving him at a disadvantage once more.
nà fǎ xiàng de shǒu bì fēn chí juàn zhóu de liǎng duān ， jiāng qí huǎn huǎn yán zhǎn le kāi lái 。
那法相的手臂分持卷轴的两端，将其缓缓延展了开来。
However, there was no sign of discouragement on Lin Xuan's face. He ignored the old monster's threat as he flicked his sleeves and released a long, ancient-looking spear.
yī tuán huǒ hóng sè de yān xiá yī shǎn ， jiǔ zuò shān fēng yìng rù yǎn lián 。
一团火红sè的烟霞一闪，九座山峰映入眼帘。
One of the divine figure's arms reached out to grasp it.
gāo ǎi bù yī ， dàn qì shì dōu huī hóng yǐ jí ， suí hòu guā zào shēng chuán rù ěr lǐ ， wú shù quán tou dà xiǎo de huǒ niǎo cóng nà jiǔ zuò shān fēng shàng fēi xià lái le 。
高矮不一，但气势都恢宏以极，随后聒噪声传入耳里，无数拳头大小的火鸟从那九座山峰上飞下来了。
With a gentle shake, a buzzing sound filled the air before it swung downward.
sān zú jīn wū ， shù liàng yě shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， suī tán bù shàng zhē tiān bì rì ， dàn zhì shǎo yě yǒu shù bǎi zhǐ ， yī shí jiān guā zào shēng dà zuò ， è hěn hěn de xiàng zhe qián fāng fēi guò qù le 。
三足金乌，数量也是非同小可，虽谈不上遮天蔽日，但至少也有数百只，一时间聒噪声大做，恶狠狠的像着前方飞过去了。
A massive crescent-shaped light blade appeared, with large runes spewing from its surface. The air seemed to become a small lake as ripples spread outward and far away.
zhè jīn wū běn lái jiù shì fǎ lì jiè bǎo wù de wēi néng huàn huà ér chū ， zì rán bù zhī dào wèi jù wèi hé wù ， yī tóu jiù zhā rù nà líng yún zhī zhōng ， dé dào tā men de zhī yuán ， bǎi lóng zhī yá kuì tuì de shēng shì shāo jiǎn ， rán ér yī jiù méi néng wǎn huí tuí shì ， jiàn zhèn yī jiù shì láo láo zhàn jù zhe shàng fēng 。
这金乌本来就是法力借宝物的威能幻化而出，自然不知道畏惧为何物，一头就扎入那灵云之中，得到它们的支援，百龙之牙溃退的声势稍减，然而依旧没能挽回颓势，剑阵依旧是牢牢占据着上风。
The speed was even faster now. A flash of light revealed the spear heading towards the spirit cloud before plunging into it.
lín xuān shuāng méi jǐn suǒ ， yī shēng dà hē ， bèi hòu chí zhe juàn zhóu de nà shuāng shǒu bì yě shì hěn mìng yī dǒu ， chú cǐ yǐ wài ， bú jiàn duō yú de dòng zuò ， rán ér xuán fú zài tóu dǐng de jiǔ zuò shān fēng què měng rán bào zhǎng qǐ lái 。
林轩双眉紧锁，一声大喝，背后持着卷轴的那双手臂也是狠命一抖，除此以外，不见多余的动作，然而悬浮在头顶的九座山峰却猛然暴涨起来。
Despite this, it could not reverse the tide.
jiù ná zuì xiǎo de yī zuò lái shuō ， yuán běn gāo bù guò bǎi zhàng yú ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， měng rán jiān què bào zhǎng le shí bèi hái duō ， huà wèi qiān zhàng gāo de qíng tiān jù wù ， qí tā shān fēng yě chà bu duō ， suí hòu è hěn hěn de xiàng nà líng yún zá guò lái le 。
就拿最小的一座来说，原本高不过百丈余，此时此刻，猛然间却暴涨了十倍还多，化为千丈高的擎天巨物，其他山峰也差不多，随后恶狠狠的像那灵云砸过来了。
Lin Xuan's expression was grim, but he showed no signs of retreating. With a single word, five-colored lapis lazuli and an egg-sized flame shot out from his mouth, rolling around to form a cartwheel-sized fireball that flew towards the spirit cloud.
hōng ！
轰！
However, this time, it met strong resistance; even with Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, it was still insufficient to turn the tide.
zhěng gè kōng jiān dōu zài chàn dǒu ， guāng shì yī zuò shān fēng ， shēng shì jiù lìng rén xīn zhé ， hé kuàng lián zhū jià bān de jiǔ zuò 。
整个空间都在颤抖，光是一座山峰，声势就令人心折，何况连珠价般的九座。
The avatar of the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster's faces were solemn. This kid had too many techniques and treasures. Was he really overestimating his own strength? Back when Lin Xuan was at the early Divinity Stage, his power was incomparable to this kid.
líng yún bèi zá dé jù liè fān yǒng ， hóng máng dà zuò ， ér jīn sè de guāng yùn zé àn dàn le xǔ duō 。
灵云被砸得剧烈翻涌，红芒大做，而金sè的光晕则黯淡了许多。
No, it must be eliminated here; danger must be eradicated in its infancy. Otherwise, if this kid continued to grow, he would not be able to match him.
xíng shì sì hū dào zhuǎn le 。
形势似乎倒转了。

In an instant, a clear and resonant sound echoed. The surface of the Nine Palace Must-Instant Sword emitted streaks of sword light that gradually spread out. Then something unbelievable happened—these sword lights stretched and grew exponentially, transforming into dragons.
Each dragon was about seven to eight zhang long, wrapped in scarlet scales, clearly belonging to the same category as the immortal swords. These dragons were all associated with fire.
From a visual standpoint, this scene resembled Lin Xuan's secret technique from his past—Hundred Dragons' Fangs—in many ways.
Lin Xuan continued to dance with both hands, injecting more power into the technique with each movement. The fiery dragons raised their heads and circled around them, emitting awe-inspiring dragon roars that filled the air.
However, this was not yet over. As Lin Xuan's hands changed shape rapidly, these dragons actually transformed into seven at once, and the pressure from their attacks did not diminish. "Little guy, are you regretting it now? Who let you be so foolish as to try and stop a car with your arms?" The old monster's snarl echoed again, filled with mockery.
"Stopping a car with one's arm?" Lin Xuan showed no signs of panic or fear on his face: "Are you referring to yourself?"
"What use is it for a dead duck to be stubborn? Are you really so blind that you don't see the coffin before your eyes?"
The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster was extremely disdainful towards Lin Xuan's retort. While this kid's strength was decent, he had overstepped his bounds and would lose regardless of how much he complained.
After all, in the cultivation world, it was about power, not eloquence.
However, was Lin Xuan truly as stubborn as he appeared?
The answer was no. From the start, he knew that Hundred Dragons' Fangs could not withstand the opponent's sword array. So while using this technique, he prepared his backup plan.
He raised both hands and formed a hand seal with each one. As he moved, a golden light burst out from behind him without any warning.
It was dazzling and magnificent!
But this was just the beginning. The bright golden light grew even brighter until it transformed into a divine figure.
Initially blurry, the golden light began to grow crazily, becoming as bright as the sun!
A splendid and majestic golden light.
After a moment, the light condensed, revealing the original form of the divine figure. Its appearance was identical to Lin Xuan's, like his own shadow, but it had nine heads and eighteen arms, exuding an intimidating aura.
The Lesser Luo Tian Divine Figure!
However, compared to before, there seemed to be some differences. The surface of the divine figure bore some patterns that appeared to be microcosmic arrays composed of unknown runes.
Undoubtedly, this would enhance the Lesser Luo Tian Divine Figure's power.
Then the divine figure flipped its hand, revealing an ancient scroll.
The Mountain and Golden Phoenix Scroll!
This was one of the immortals' treasures Lin Xuan obtained in the demon realm. The divine figure held both ends of the scroll, slowly unfolding it.
A flash of red smoke appeared, and nine mountain peaks came into view. They were of varying heights but exuded an overwhelming grandeur. Soon, a cacophony filled the air as countless firebirds the size of fists flew down from these mountains.
The three-legged golden phoenixes numbered in the hundreds, though not enough to block out the sky. With their deafening cries, they fiercely flew towards the front.

Lin Xuan's brows furrowed as he roared. The hands holding the scroll behind him shook fiercely, with no other movements. Suddenly, the nine mountain peaks floating above his head grew exponentially.
The smallest one, originally only a hundred zhang high, now soared ten times higher, becoming a towering thousand-zhang giant. The others followed suit and crashed towards the spirit cloud.
Boom!
The entire space trembled as even a single mountain peak's impact was enough to break one's heart. Imagine nine of them in quick succession.
The spirit cloud churned violently, red light blazing, while the golden glow dimmed significantly.
The situation seemed to have reversed.
Such changes left the five observers speechless. The Star Moon City Four Elders were shocked, and the dragon-named youth was both terrified and elated.
Unfortunately, his joy lasted only a few breaths before another change occurred.
"Humph."
With a cold snort, the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster's avatar began to dance with both hands. Spell after spell shot from his fingertips into the void in front of him.
Then the golden light of the spirit cloud grew brighter, while the red hue gradually faded like a fleeting flower.
"Little Lin, I didn't expect you to have so many secret techniques and treasures. But what does that matter? The power of my sword array has only just reached three-tenths of its full strength. Kid, give up now; no amount of struggle will help."
"What? Only three-tenths?"
As an observer, Jingkong was also shocked. Was it true that with such a mere three-tenths of his power, he could annihilate all the cultivators present?
The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster was indeed the top figure in the cultivation world, but did he really have so much strength?
Was this just an attempt to intimidate them?
"Brother Hui, what do you think?" The big monk turned his head.
"I don't know either."
The gray-robed cultivator shook his head. While his eyes were among the best in terms of discernment, this battle could not be judged by common sense; it was full of twists and turns. He had thought Lin Xuan would have fallen long ago, but that kid repeatedly surprised everyone, turning the tide. The Heaven-Extinguishing old monster lived up to his reputation as a master who did not disappoint in critical moments, even with few treasures, his life-prolonging technique and this sword array were enough to turn the tide.
So he didn't want to guess; it was too risky. Whether the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster said he had only used three-tenths of his strength was true or a psychological tactic, only heaven, earth, and himself knew.
But regardless, Lin Xuan's hard-won advantage vanished in an instant, leaving him at a disadvantage once more.
However, there was no sign of discouragement on Lin Xuan's face. He ignored the old monster's threat as he flicked his sleeves and released a long, ancient-looking spear.
One of the divine figure's arms reached out to grasp it.
With a gentle shake, a buzzing sound filled the air before it swung downward.
A massive crescent-shaped light blade appeared, with large runes spewing from its surface. The air seemed to become a small lake as ripples spread outward and far away.
The speed was even faster now. A flash of light revealed the spear heading towards the spirit cloud before plunging into it.
Despite this, it could not reverse the tide.
Lin Xuan's expression was grim, but he showed no signs of retreating. With a single word, five-colored lapis lazuli and an egg-sized flame shot out from his mouth, rolling around to form a cartwheel-sized fireball that flew towards the spirit cloud.
However, this time, it met strong resistance; even with Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, it was still insufficient to turn the tide.
The avatar of the Heaven-Extinguishing old monster's faces were solemn. This kid had too many techniques and treasures. Was he really overestimating his own strength? Back when Lin Xuan was at the early Divinity Stage, his power was incomparable to this kid.
No, it must be eliminated here; danger must be eradicated in its infancy. Otherwise, if this kid continued to grow, he would not be able to match him.
