zhì yú qí tā jǐ chù ， yě dōu shì dòu dé bù yì lè hū 。
至于其他几处，也都是斗得不亦乐乎。
The rest of the battle was just as lively.
bù guò xuě hú zhè biān rén shǎo ， míng xiǎn chǔ yú xià fēng ， yǒu de dì fāng ， shèn zhì shì shù míng dī yí gè jìng jiè de yāo xiū ， lián shǒu hé dòu yī míng bīng xióng huò zhě hán shǔ zú de duì shǒu 。
不过雪狐这边人少，明显处于下风，有的地方，甚至是数名低一个境界的妖修，联手合斗一名冰熊或者寒鼠族的对手。
However, on the side of the Snow Foxes, they were clearly at a disadvantage with fewer numbers. Some areas saw multiple lower-level妖修 working together to fight against a single Ice Bear or Frost Rat.
zhè xiē rén de chǔ jìng jiù gèng jiā kān yōu 。
这些人的处境就更加堪忧。
Their situation was even more precarious.
hǎo zài zhè lǐ shì xuě hú zú de lǐng dì ， tā men zhàn jù le tiān shí dì lì rén hé ， hái yǒu zhèn fǎ zhī lì kě yǐ jiè yòng ， fǒu zé zǎo jiù zhī chēng bú zhù 。
好在这里是雪狐族的领地，他们占据了天时地利人和，还有阵法之力可以借用，否则早就支撑不住。
Fortunately, this was the territory of the Snow Foxes. They had the advantage of timing and location, as well as access to array techniques, which allowed them to hold their ground for now.
bù guò ráo shì rú cǐ ， shèng fù yě shì méi yǒu xuán niàn dì ， luò bài zhǐ shì shí jiān de wèn tí 。
不过饶是如此，胜负也是没有悬念地，落败只是时间的问题。
Despite that, the outcome was clear; it was just a matter of time before they would be defeated.
lín xuān zhè shí hòu yǐ fēi dé hěn jìn le ， mù guāng sǎo guò ， xiāng ér què shì zōng jì liǎo wú ， zhè yā tou dào nǎ lǐ qù le 。
林轩这时候已飞得很近了，目光扫过，香儿却是踪迹了无，这丫头到哪里去了。
Lin Xuan had flown close enough by this point. His gaze swept over the area but found no trace of Xiāngér. Where could she have gone?
lín xuān de liǎn shàng bù yóu de shǎn guò yī sī jiāo jí zhī sè。
林轩的脸上不由得闪过一丝焦急之sè。
A hint of anxiety flashed across his face.
bì jìng xuě hú zú dào bù dǎo méi ， lín xuān gēn běn jiù bù zài hū ， tā zhī suǒ yǐ huì chān huo jìn lái ， hái bú shì yīn wèi nà yī chū shēng ， jiù yōng yǒu sān tiáo wěi ba de xiǎo xuě hú 。
毕竟雪狐族倒不倒霉，林轩根本就不在乎，他之所以会掺和进来，还不是因为那一出生，就拥有三条尾巴的小雪狐。
After all, he wasn't overly concerned about the Snow Foxes' fate; what mattered to him was that little snow fox with three tails who had been born with such a condition.
tā de ān wēi cái shì lín xuān guān xīn de 。
她的安危才是林轩关心的。
Her safety was his primary concern.
jū rán bù zài zhè lǐ me ？
居然不在这里么？
Wasn’t she here?
lín xuān suī tán bù shàng xīn luàn rú má ， dàn yī shí piàn kè ， yě yǒu diǎn jǐn zhāng le a ！
林轩虽谈不上心乱如麻，但一时片刻，也有点紧张了啊！
Although Lin Xuan wasn't completely flustered, he did feel some tension at this moment.
piān piān zhè shí hòu ， què lái le yī bù kāi yǎn de jiā huo 。
偏偏这时候，却来了一不开眼的家伙。
Just then, an unwise individual appeared.
bào hǒu shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yī rén lì de jù xióng lái dào lín xuān shēn cè ， hún shēn jī ròu shì tiě ， yáng qǐ pú shàn dà de jù zhǎng ， hěn hěn xiàng zhe lín xuān de tóu dǐng pāi luò 。
暴吼声传入耳朵，一人立的巨熊来到林轩身侧，浑身肌肉似铁，扬起蒲扇大的巨掌，狠狠像着林轩的头顶拍落。
A loud roar echoed as a giant bear stood beside Lin Xuan. Its muscles were like iron, and it raised its palm-sized paw to strike Lin Xuan's head.
zhè shì yī dòng xuán qī diān fēng de jiā huo ， zhǐ kě xī pí qì tài bào zào le diǎn ， lián lín xuān de jìng jiè dōu méi yǒu kàn qīng chǔ ， jiù máng zhe dòng shǒu tōu xí 。
这是一洞玄期巅峰的家伙，只可惜脾气太暴躁了点，连林轩的境界都没有看清楚，就忙着动手偷袭。
This was a玄期 peak妖修, but his temper proved too short-lived; he didn't even notice Lin Xuan's level before rushing in for an ambush.
zhè yàng de xíng wéi ， shuō yú chǔn yě bù wèi guò ， nà jié guǒ shì kěn dìng yào bēi jù diào de ， lín xuān yīn wèi méi yǒu kàn jiàn xiāng ér zài nǎ lǐ yuán běn xīn qíng jiù yǒu xiē biē qū ， tā zhè me zuò ， jiǎn zhí shì zì jǐ zhǎo sǐ 。
这样的行为，说愚蠢也不为过，那结果是肯定要悲剧掉的，林轩因为没有看见香儿在哪里原本心情就有些憋屈，他这么做，简直是自己找死。
Such behavior could be considered foolish, as the result would inevitably be tragic. Lin Xuan had already been feeling frustrated because he couldn’t find Xiāngér, and this was just asking for trouble.
shēn xíng yī shǎn ， lín xuān yǐ cóng yuán dì xiāo shī le zōng jì 。
身形一闪，林轩已从原地消失了踪迹。
With a flash of movement, Lin Xuan vanished from sight.
nà dà bèn xióng de yī zhǎng ， zì rán luò zài le kōng chù 。
那大笨熊的一掌，自然落在了空处。
The giant bear's strike landed in empty air.
tā de liǎn shàng hái dài zhe jǐ fēn chà yì ， huái yí zì jǐ yǎn jīng shì bú shì kàn huā le ， rán ér zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò yī zhèn jù tòng jiù chuán rù le nǎo hǎi zhōng 。
他的脸上还带着几分诧异，怀疑自己眼睛是不是看花了，然而这个念头尚未转过一阵剧痛就传入了脑海中。
He looked surprised, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him. Before he could think further, intense pain struck his mind.
tā dī xià tou ， fā xiàn xiōng kǒu bù zhī hé shí ， yǐ bèi kāi le yí gè dà dòng 。
他低下头，发现xiōng口不知何时，已被开了一个大洞。
He lowered his head and discovered that a large hole had appeared in his chest. The妖丹 floated mid-air but was shattered by an unknown force.
yāo dān xuán fú zài bàn kōng ， rán ér biǎo miàn ， yǐ shì liè wén biàn bù ， bèi yī gǔ shén mì ér qiáng dà de lì liàng gěi chè dǐ fěn suì diào le 。
妖丹悬浮在半空，然而表面，已是裂纹遍布，被一股神秘而强大的力量给彻底粉碎掉了。
"How can this be…"
“ zěn me huì zhè yàng ………
“怎么会这样………
The giant bear's eyes were filled with confusion as it realized its end. Like the fallen玄期 peak, he had returned to the netherworld without understanding how he died.
dà bèn xióng de yǎn zhōng mǎn shì mí máng ， kě xī zhè yǐ shì tā zuì hòu de niàn tou ， yāo dān suì liè ， jié guǒ jiù yǔ xiū shì yuán yīng yǔn luò de jié guǒ shì yī yàng de ， tā yǐ hún guī dì fǔ ， kě lián yī dòng xuán qī diān fēng shì qiáng zhě ， lián zì jǐ shì zěn me sǐ de dōu méi yǒu nòng qīng chǔ 。
大笨熊的眼中满是mí茫，可惜这已是他最后的念头，妖丹碎裂，结果就与修士元婴陨落的结果是一样的，他已hún归地府，可怜一洞玄期巅峰是强者，连自己是怎么死的都没有弄清楚。
Lin Xuan moved on to his next opponent, another Ice Bear. This one was broad-shouldered and muscular but didn't use any treasure; his sheer physical strength could withstand an attack from a peer.
ér lín xuān ， yǐ chōng xiàng le xià yí gè duì shǒu 。
而林轩，已冲向了下一个对手。
This was indeed a分神期妖族.
yě shì bīng xióng zú de jiā huo ， bù cuò zhèng shì nà bǎng dà yāo yuán ， yě bù jì chū fǎ bǎo ， yòng ròu shēn de lì liàng jiù kě yǐ yìng káng tóng jiē cún zài fēi jiàn de měng xióng 。
也是冰熊族的家伙，不错正是那膀大腰圆，也不祭出法宝，用肉身的力量就可以硬扛同阶存在飞剑的猛熊。
However, based on the aura around him, it seemed he had only recently entered this stage.
zhè jiā huo què shì huò zhēn jià shí de fēn shén qī yāo zú 。
这家伙却是货真价实的分神期妖族。
Lin Xuan waved his sleeves, releasing several silver仙剑. They converged to form a three-to-four-meter-long giant sword, which slashed at the opponent with great force.
bù guò kàn yāo qì bō dòng ， sì hū cái jìn rù cǐ jìng jiè bù jiǔ 。
不过看妖气bō动，似乎才进入此境界不久。
Despite the sudden attack, the妖修 showed no fear of its own body. Only foolish妖族 would waste their innate abilities by crafting treasures; such efforts were unnecessary and wasteful.
lín xuān xiù páo yī fú ， jǐ bǐng yín sè de xiān jiàn fēi lüè ér chū wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， yī zhǎng sān sì zhàng de jù jiàn jiù chū xiàn le ， cháo zhe duì fāng ， hěn hěn yī zhǎn 。
林轩袖袍一拂，几柄银sè的仙剑飞掠而出往中间一合，一长三四丈的巨剑就出现了，朝着对方，狠狠一斩。
He was convinced that peer-level treasures couldn't harm his body. With this belief, he didn’t try to dodge the silver-luminous sword but instead crossed his forelegs over his head in a defensive posture.
miàn duì tū rán xí jī ， cǐ yāo bìng méi yǒu duō shǎo wèi jù duì yú zì jǐ de yāo tǐ ， tā xìn xīn shí zú ， zhǐ yǒu nà xiē yú chǔn de yāo zú ， cái huì xué rén lèi yì bān liàn zhì bǎo wù gēn běn jiù shì duō cǐ yī jǔ ， bái bái làng fèi le zì jǐ de tiān fù 。
面对突然袭击，此妖并没有多少畏惧对于自己的妖体，他信心十足，只有那些愚蠢的妖族，才会学人类一般炼制宝物根本就是多此一举，白白浪费了自己的天赋。
"Truly fearless ignorance."
tóng jiē cún zài de bǎo wù shì wú fǎ shāng hài dào zì jǐ shēn tǐ de 。
同阶存在的宝物是无法伤害到自己身体的。
Lin Xuan couldn't help but sneer at such boldness. Even渡劫初期的大能 might hesitate before directly facing an attack from his仙剑.
duì zhè yì diǎn ， tā xìn zhī bù yí ， yú shì ， miàn duì nà yín máng yào mù de xiān jiàn ， tā gēn běn jiù méi yǒu duǒ shǎn zhī yì ， jǐn jǐn shì zhuǎn guò shēn tǐ ， jiāng liǎng zhǐ qián zhǎo ， wǎng tóu dǐng zhè me jiāo chā ， zuò le yí gè zhāo jià de dòng zuò 。
对这一点，他信之不疑，于是，面对那银芒耀目的仙剑，他根本就没有躲闪之意，仅仅是转过身体，将两只前爪，往头顶这么交叉，做了一个招架的动作。
The power of the Nine Palaces Mustache Sword was well-known to Lin Xuan, so the outcome was clear.
“ hái zhēn shì wú zhī zhě wú jù 。”
“还真是无知者无惧。”
"Ahh!"
duì fāng zhè yàng dà dǎn ， ràng lín xuān yě yǒu xiē yì wài ， zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī cháo fěng zhī sè， biàn shì dù jié chū qī de dà néng ， yě wèi bì gǎn zhè yàng bú yào rèn hé fáng hù ， jiù qù yìng jiē zì jǐ xiān jiàn de 。
对方这样大胆，让林轩也有些意外，嘴角边lù出一丝嘲讽之sè，便是渡劫初期的大能，也未必敢这样不要任何防护，就去硬接自己仙剑的。
In the next moment, a scream echoed as the giant bear's forelegs were severed at the wrists. But this wasn't the end; due to underestimating his opponent, he lost more than just his arms. The仙剑 continued its attack and soon split him in two.
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn de wēi néng lín xuān xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， yú shì jié guǒ yě jiù xiǎn ér yì jiàn le 。
九宫须臾剑的威能林轩心中有数，于是结果也就显而易见了。
Even with a single exchange, a分神期妖族 had fallen. Although the bear was clearly overconfident, such a result was still shocking.
“ a ！”
“啊！”
The change in the battle caught the attention of other妖修. Their duels paused as they turned their gaze toward Lin Xuan.
xià yī kè ， cǎn jiào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà jù xióng de liǎng zhǐ qián zhǎo ， yǐ qí wàn ér duàn le ， rán ér shì qíng bìng méi yǒu jié shù ， yīn wèi dà yì qīng dí ， tā shī qù de bù jǐn jǐn shì shǒu bì ， nà xiān jiàn sī háo tíng xiē yě wú ， hěn kuài ， tā bèi pī cì chéng liǎng bàn le 。
下一刻，惨叫声传入耳朵，那巨熊的两只前爪，已齐腕而断了，然而事情并没有结束，因为大意轻敌，他失去的不仅仅是手臂，那仙剑丝毫停歇也无，很快，他被劈刺成两半了。
"Hey, it's you? How did you get here? Where’s Ice Elder?"
jǐn jǐn yí gè zhào miàn ， jiù yǒu yī fēn shén qī dà néng yǔn luò ， suī rán cǐ yāo míng xiǎn dà yì qīng dí ， dàn zhè yàng de jié guǒ ， wèi miǎn hái shì tài lìng rén zhèn hàn le xiē 。
仅仅一个照面，就有一分神期大能陨落，虽然此妖明显大意轻敌，但这样的结果，未免还是太令人震撼了些。
High-ranking members of the Frost Rat and Ice Bear clans exchanged glances. They had just seen Lin Xuan leave with the old Ice Bear to face off against each other.
gǎn yìng dào zhè biān de biàn huà ， zhòng yāo de dòu fǎ ， dùn shí dōu huǎn le yī huǎn ， shèn zhì tíng le xià lái ， fēn fēn jiāng mù guāng tóu xiàng zhè biān 。
感应到这边的变化，众妖的斗法，顿时都缓了一缓，甚至停了下来，纷纷将目光投向这边。
In their eyes, this was akin to suicide; a mere渡劫初期 existence dared to challenge a化身 of a渡劫期大能. Wasn't that madness?
“ yí ， shì nǐ ？““ nǐ zěn me huì zài zhè lǐ ， bīng dà rén ne ？”
“咦，是你？““你怎么会在这里，冰大人呢？”
But now, Lin Xuan appeared safely while Ice Elder had vanished without a trace. The shock on the faces of the other妖修 was evident.
hán shǔ yǔ bīng xióng yī zú de gāo jiē yāo xiū miàn miàn xiāng qù ， gāng cái ， tā men kě shì qīn yǎn kàn jiàn lín xuān yǔ bīng lǎo yāo lí kāi cǐ dì ， zhǔn bèi yī jué shèng fù de 。
寒鼠与冰熊一族的高阶妖修面面相觑，刚才，他们可是亲眼看见林轩与冰老妖离开此地，准备一决胜负的。
Could it be… did Ice Elder lose to him in single combat?
zài tā men de yǎn zhōng ， lín xuān zhè yàng zuò ， jiǎn zhí yǔ zhǎo sǐ xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
在他们的眼中，林轩这样做，简直与找死相差仿佛。
Impossible!
qū qū yī fēn shén chū qī de cún zài ， gǎn tiǎo zhàn dù jié qī dà néng de huà shēn ， nà bú shì nǎo dài xiù dòu le me ？
区区一分神初期的存在，敢挑战渡劫期大能的化身，那不是脑袋秀逗了么？
Before their thoughts could fully form, Lin Xuan didn’t waste time with them.
rán ér cǐ kè ， lín xuān píng ān chū xiàn zài cǐ chù ， ér bīng lǎo yāo què zōng jì quán wú ， zhòng yāo jīng è zhī yú ， liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng ， zì rán shì nán kàn wú bǐ 。
然而此刻，林轩平安出现在此处，而冰老妖却踪迹全无，众妖惊愕之余，脸上的表情，自然是难看无比。
"Where is Princess Xiāngér?"
nán dào shuō ……， bīng lǎo yāo yǔ tā dān tiāo jué dòu ， jū rán shū le ？
难道说……，冰老妖与他单挑决斗，居然输了？
His voice carried an unshakeable tone as he scanned a nearby old man in green robes. This was also a分神期妖族 but not a Snow Fox; it was a guest expert invited by the clan.
bù kě néng ！
不可能！
Under Lin Xuan's gaze, despite being of the same level, the old man felt a chill, as if facing someone far more powerful.
zhòng yāo xīn zhōng de niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān què méi yǒu xīn qíng yǔ tā men zài zhè lǐ dān gē 。
众妖心中的念头尚未转过，林轩却没有心情与他们在这里耽搁。
"Princess Xiāngér is in the Fragrant Valley."
“ xiāng ér gōng zhǔ zài hé chù ？”
“香儿公主在何处？”
Although he didn’t know much about Lin Xuan, his words hinted at an alliance with him.
lín xuān de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yǔ qì píng dàn ， rán ér nà wèi dào ， què shì bù róng zhì yí de 。
林轩的声音传入耳朵，语气平淡，然而那味道，却是不容置疑的。
"Fragrant Valley?"
tā de mù guāng sǎo xiàng bù yuǎn chù de qīng páo lǎo zhě ， cǐ yāo yě shì fēn shén chū qī de yāo zú ， dàn běn tǐ bìng bú shì xuě hú ， ér shì gāi zú qǐng lái de kè qīng 。
他的目光扫像不远处的青袍老者，此妖也是分神初期的妖族，但本体并不是雪狐，而是该族请来的客卿。
Lin Xuan frowned.
bèi lín xuān mù guāng sǎo guò ， duì fāng míng míng shì tóng jiē ， rán ér nà lǎo zhě què xīn zhōng yī hán ， fǎng fú miàn duì de shì yuǎn bǐ zì jǐ gāo jiē de cún zài 。
被林轩目光扫过，对方明明是同阶，然而那老者却心中一寒，仿佛面对的是远比自己高阶的存在。
"It's where Princess Yuánkē resides," the old man stammered.
“ xiāng ér gōng zhǔ zài hán xiāng gǔ 。”
“香儿公主在含香谷。”
Before he could finish, Lin Xuan’s body was enveloped in green light as he flew toward the distant Fragrant Valley.
lín xuān de lái lì tā suī rán bù qīng chǔ ， dàn míng xiǎn shì qīng xiàng yú zì jǐ zhè biān de 。
林轩的来历他虽然不清楚，但明显是倾向于自己这边的。
Xiāngér, the little snow fox, and the Frost Rat King were not present; Xiāngér was fighting two opponents. Her situation must be perilous.
“ hán xiāng gǔ ？”
“含香谷？”
Lin Xuan didn’t want to waste time here. He raced through the air.
lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu 。
林轩眉头一皱。
Despite having dozens of high-level Ice Bear and Frost Rat experts nearby, they remained silent in awe of Lin Xuan’s overwhelming power, allowing him to fly away without obstruction.
“ jiù shì yuàn kē gōng zhǔ qī shēn de dòng fǔ 。“ lǎo zhě jiē jiē bā bā de shuō 。
“就是媛珂公主栖身的洞府。“老者结结巴巴的说。
Their expressions remained blank as he disappeared from sight. Although Lin Xuan arrived quickly and left hurriedly, the morale of the Snow Foxes was restored by this small interlude.
zhè cì huà yīn wèi luò ， lín xuān hún shēn yǐ qīng máng dà qǐ ， xiàng zhe yuǎn chù fēi lüè ér qù 。
这次话音未落，林轩浑身已青芒大起，像着远处飞掠而去。
The Ice Bear and Frost Rat experts, along with their guest elders, felt a growing sense of unease.
chú le xiāng ér nà xiǎo xuě hú ， hán shǔ wáng yǔ duō bì xióng tóng yàng bù zài cǐ chù ， xiāng ér yǐ yī dí èr ， chǔ jìng bì rán wēi xiǎn 。
除了香儿那小雪狐，寒鼠王与多臂熊同样不在此处，香儿以一敌二，处境必然危险。
But until the outcome was decided, they couldn’t leave just yet. After some hesitation, someone finally summoned a treasure, and soon, pairs of opponents clashed again.
lín xuān zì rán bù yuàn yì zài zhè lǐ dān gē ， fēng chí diàn chè ， fēi guò qù le 。
林轩自然不愿意在这里耽搁，风驰电掣，飞过去了。
"Qīng'er, don't be afraid; I'm here."
ér fù jìn bīng xióng yǔ hán shǔ liǎng zú de gāo shǒu yǒu shù shí rén zhī duō ， kě zhèn shè yú lín xuān gāng cái zhǎn xiàn chū lái de chāo jué shí lì ， jū rán wú rén gǎn zǔ ， jiù zhè me yǎn zhēng zhēng de kàn zhe tā fēi xiàng le yuǎn chù 。
而附近冰熊与寒鼠两族的高手有数十人之多，可震慑于林轩刚才展现出来的超绝实力，居然无人敢阻，就这么眼睁睁的看着他飞向了远处。
On the other side, Lin Xuan raced toward the Fragrant Valley at an astonishing speed!
The rest of the battle was just as lively.
However, on the side of the Snow Foxes, they were clearly at a disadvantage with fewer numbers. Some areas saw multiple lower-level妖修 working together to fight against a single Ice Bear or Frost Rat.
Their situation was even more precarious.
Fortunately, this was the territory of the Snow Foxes. They had the advantage of timing and location, as well as access to array techniques, which allowed them to hold their ground for now.
