“ nà shì jiā shī ！”
“那是家师！”
"That's my master!"
duì fāng jì rán rèn cuò ， lín xuān zì rán bù jiè yì jiù cǐ mào chōng yī xià le ， rú jīn mó dào shì dà ， ruò duì fāng tóu shǔ jì qì ， fàng zì jǐ lí qù ， nà zì rán shì zài hǎo bù guò de jié jú 。
对方既然认错，林轩自然不介意就此冒充一下了，如今魔道势大，若对方投鼠忌器，放自己离去，那自然是再好不过的结局。
With the other party having admitted their mistake, Lin Xuan naturally didn't mind pretending for now. If they were to let him go out of fear of harming a mouse, that would be the best outcome.
“ yuán lái rú cǐ ！”
“原来如此！”
"Ah, I see! How courteous of you, Master Gu," said Feng with a smile, "It's the Young Lord of the Extreme Demon Cave who has arrived. Please forgive my rudeness... I didn't know better."
gù fēng shā qì yī liǎn ， fǎn ér lù chū le jǐ fēn tǎo hǎo de biǎo qíng ：“ yuán lái shì jí mó dòng shǎo zhǔ dào le ， gù mǒu shī jìng ， hái qǐng nín dà rén bù jì xiǎo rén guò ……”
顾风杀气一敛，反而露出了几分讨好的表情：“原来是极魔洞少主到了，顾某失敬，还请您大人不记小人过……”
"I may not have known, but there's no sin in ignorance. Fellow Daoist, please don't be so polite. But now, I wish to leave..."
“ bù zhī zhě wú zuì ， dào yǒu bù bì kè qì ， dàn tián mǒu xiàn zài xiǎng yào lí qù ……”
“不知者无罪，道友不必客气，但田某现在想要离去……”
"You want to go? How could I dare stop you? However, the裂光阵 is dangerous. Let me escort you out for your safety," said Feng, his face turning kind as he flew over.
“ shǎo zhǔ yào zǒu ， xiǎo rén nǎ gǎn zǔ lán ， bù guò yún hǎi liè guāng zhèn zhōng wēi xiǎn chóng chóng ， hái shì ràng zài xià sòng nín lí qù wěn tuǒ yì diǎn 。”
“少主要走，小人哪敢阻拦，不过云海裂光阵中危险重重，还是让在下送您离去稳妥一点。”
In a blink of an eye, their distance had shortened to just over ten feet. As they locked eyes, Lin Xuan's expression changed, and he called out, "Hold it!"
gù fēng yī biān shuō ， yī biān liǎn dài cí hé de fēi le guò lái ， zhuǎn shùn jiān ， liǎng rén de jù lí yǐ suō duǎn dào shí yú zhàng zhī duǎn ， kàn zhe duì fāng nà duī mǎn tǎo hǎo zhī yì de biǎo qíng ， lín xuān xīn zhōng què sà rán yǒng qǐ yī gǔ bù hǎo de yù gǎn 。
顾风一边说，一边脸带慈和的飞了过来，转瞬间，两人的距离已缩短到十余丈之短，看着对方那堆满讨好之意的表情，林轩心中却飒然涌起一股不好的预感。
He moved swiftly towards the back, dodging away from the area where he stood moments ago.
méi yǒu lǐ yóu ， kě gǎn jué què xiàng shì bèi dú shé dīng zhù le yì bān 。
没有理由，可感觉却像是被毒蛇盯住了一般。
A dark cloud appeared between Feng's eyebrows as a red light beam shot out of his hand, striking the spot where Lin Xuan had been standing. After flying several dozen feet, the beam dissipated to reveal a tiny, transparent bead.
tái qǐ tóu ， liǎng rén de mù guāng zài bàn kōng zhōng xiāng chù ， lín xuān liǎn sè yī biàn ， dào ：“ qiě zhù ！”
抬起头，两人的目光在半空中相触，林轩脸色一变，道：“且住！”
With a snap, fine cracks spread across the surface before it shattered into pieces.
tóng shí shēn xíng yī huǎng ， yǐ jīng xiàng hòu miàn piāo chū 。
同时身形一晃，已经像后面飘出。
Lin Xuan's expression was utterly grim.
yī lǚ yīn mái chū xiàn zài gù fēng de méi yǔ zhī jiān ， liǎn shàng shā jī yǐn xiàn ， shǒu yī yáng ， yī lǚ mǔ zhǐ cū xì de chì hóng guāng shù tuō shǒu ér chū ，“ sōu ” de yī shēng jī dǎ zài lín xuān gāng cái suǒ zhàn lì guò de xū kōng zhī chù 。
一缕阴霾出现在顾风的眉宇之间，脸上杀机隐现，手一扬，一缕拇指粗细的赤红光束脱手而出，“嗖”的一声击打在林轩刚才所站立过的虚空之处。
If not for his quick reflexes, he might have already been disintegrated by Feng's雷火神珠.
fēi chū shù shí zhàng hòu 。 nà guāng shù xiāo sàn 。 què lù chū le yī kē xiǎo xiǎo dì tòu míng dì zhū zi lái 。
飞出数十丈后。那光束消散。却露出了一颗小小地透明地珠子来。
"Brat, you're lucky. You managed to dodge my Heaven Fire Divine Pearl," said Feng with a murderous look on his face, his earlier flattery now seeming like a dream.
kā 。 zhū zi dì biǎo miàn chū xiàn liǎo wú shù dì xì wén 。 rán hòu sì fēn wǔ liè le kāi lái 。
咔。珠子地表面出现了无数地细纹。然后四分五裂了开来。
"The Heaven Fire Divine Pearl? This is the legendary one-time-use spiritual artifact?" Lin Xuan felt a bitter taste in his mouth as he spoke slowly and deliberately.
lín xuān dì biǎo qíng nán kàn dào le jí diǎn 。
林轩地表情难看到了极点。
"Hmm, I didn't expect you to have such discernment," Feng's expression showed surprise, but the killing intent around him grew thicker.
gāng cái ruò bú shì zì jǐ fǎn yìng kuài 。 shuō bù dìng yǐ jīng bèi duì fāng bīng jiě 。
刚才若不是自己反应快。说不定已经被对方兵解。
Lin Xuan's heart sank. He had only come across this one-time-use spiritual artifact by chance in an ancient text. The name suggested that it was crafted using extremely special methods and could not be used for battle like ordinary spiritual artifacts; instead, it could only be used once for a powerful attack.
“ xiǎo zi 。 suàn nǐ yùn qì 。 jū rán duǒ guò le wǒ dì léi huǒ shén zhū 。” gù fēng dì liǎn shàng shā jī biàn bù 。 gāng cái nà mǎn liǎn xiàn mèi dì mú yàng fǎng fú jiù xiàng shì chǎng mèng yī yàng 。
“小子。算你运气。居然躲过了我地雷火神珠。”顾风地脸上杀机遍布。刚才那满脸献媚地模样仿佛就像是场梦一样。
Its power was astonishing!
“ léi huǒ shén zhū 。 zhè jiù shì chuán shuō zhōng dì yí cì xìng líng qì me ？” lín xuān gǎn jué zuǐ chún yǒu xiē fā kǔ 。 yī zì yī dùn dì huǎn huǎn kāi kǒu le 。
“雷火神珠。这就是传说中地一次性灵器么？”林轩感觉嘴唇有些发苦。一字一顿地缓缓开口了。
Though it couldn't match the might of a treasure item's single strike, it far surpassed ordinary spiritual artifacts. A base foundation cultivator who received such an attack would surely die.
“ yí ， xiǎng bú dào nǐ dào yǒu jǐ fēn yǎn lì 。” gù fēng de liǎn shàng wēi lù jīng róng ， dàn shēn shàng suǒ sàn fà chū lái de shā qì què yuè lái yuè zhòng 。
“咦，想不到你倒有几分眼力。”顾风的脸上微露惊容，但身上所散发出来的杀气却越来越重。
Of course, with great power came great waste. It could only be used once, and few knew its crafting method from ancient times.
lín xuān xīn zhōng yī chén 。 zhè yí cì xìng líng qì tā yě shì ǒu rán zài mǒu běn gǔ jí shàng kàn dào guò jiè shào ér yǐ ， gù míng sī yì ， gāi zhǒng líng qì nǎi shì yòng jí qí tè shū de fāng fǎ liàn zhì ， bìng bù néng xiàng pǔ tōng líng qì yī yàng yòng yú dòu fǎ ， ér zhǐ néng zuò yí cì xìng gōng jī 。
林轩心中一沉。这一次性灵器他也是偶然在某本古籍上看到过介绍而已，顾名思义，该种灵器乃是用极其特殊的方法炼制，并不能像普通灵器一样用于斗法，而只能做一次性攻击。
"Brat, I originally wanted to capture you alive and hand you over to the Grandmaster for judgment. But since you are a disciple of that old bastard, Extreme Demon Sovereign, it's just bad luck."
wēi lì jīng rén wú bǐ ！
威力惊人无比！
Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh at Feng's words. He had intended to use Xiao Jian's identity to escape smoothly, only to end up in a worse situation.
suī rán bù néng yǔ fǎ bǎo dì yī jī xiāng bǐ ， dàn què yuǎn yuǎn chāo guò le pǔ tōng líng qì 。 zhì shǎo zhù jī qī xiū shì āi le kěn dìng bì sǐ wú yí 。
虽然不能与法宝地一击相比，但却远远超过了普通灵器。至少筑基期修士挨了肯定必死无疑。
From his expression, it was clear he wasn't here for righteousness; he had a grudge against Extreme Demon Sovereign.
dāng rán yǒu lì jiù yǒu bì ， wēi lì gù rán shì jīng rén ， kě zhǐ néng shǐ yòng yī cì ， yě tài làng fèi le xiē ， ér qiě cǐ wù de liàn zhì fāng fǎ nǎi shì shàng gǔ shí qī liú chuán xià lái de ， rú jīn dǒng de de xiū shì kě yǐ shuō shì shǎo zhī yòu shǎo 。
当然有利就有弊，威力固然是惊人，可只能使用一次，也太浪费了些，而且此物的炼制方法乃是上古时期流传下来的，如今懂得的修士可以说是少之又少。
Lin Xuan didn't care about the specifics and knew that explaining wouldn't help now. The only option was to fight his way out. Just as he was about to use another technique, Feng's face turned cold, and he acted first.
“ xiǎo zi ， yuán běn wǒ hái xiǎng jiāng nǐ shēng qín huó zhuō ， jiāo yǔ zhǎng mén shī zūn fā luò ， kě nǐ jì rán shì jí è mó zūn nà lǎo hùn dàn de dì zǐ 。 jiù yuàn zì jǐ mìng bù hǎo le 。”
“小子，原本我还想将你生擒活捉，交予掌门师尊发落，可你既然是极恶魔尊那老混蛋的弟子。就怨自己命不好了。”
He opened his mouth, and the short spear quickly shrank into a silver ray an inch long before returning to his mouth. Then, he tapped his storage bag, taking out a talisman roughly the size of a palm, which shimmered with silver light even from this distance.
tīng le gù fēng de huà ， lín xuān kū xiào bù dé ， yuán běn xiǎng yào jiè yòng tián xiǎo jiàn dì shēn fèn ān rán tuō shēn 。 nǎ zhī dào zuì hòu què nòng qiǎo chéng zhuō 。
听了顾风的话，林轩哭笑不得，原本想要借用田小剑地身份安然脱身。哪知道最后却弄巧成拙。
A beast talisman!
cóng duì fāng de biǎo qíng ， xiǎn rán bú shì wèi le chú mó wèi dào ， ér shì yǔ jí è mó zūn yǒu chóu 。
从对方的表情，显然不是为了除魔卫道，而是与极恶魔尊有仇。
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes; he was well acquainted with such items. From Feng's serious expression and the aura emanating from it, it wasn't like the cheap ones he had used before. Could there be...
jù tǐ rú hé ， lín xuān bù qīng chǔ ， yě bù gǎn xìng qù ， cǐ shí jiě shì xiǎn rán shì méi yòng de ， wéi yī de xuǎn zé ， jiù shì shā chū yī tiáo xuè lù ， lín xuān zhèng xiǎng shī zhǎn bié de shén tōng 。 nà gù fēng què biǎo qíng yī lěng zhī hòu ， xiān yǒu le dòng zuò 。
具体如何，林轩不清楚，也不感兴趣，此时解释显然是没用的，唯一的选择，就是杀出一条血路，林轩正想施展别的神通。那顾风却表情一冷之后，先有了动作。
Feng brought the talisman close to his face, showing a hint of reluctance but quickly replaced by murderous intent as he opened his mouth and spat out some essence energy.
zhǐ jiàn tā yī zhāng kǒu ， nà duǎn jǐ xùn sù suō xiǎo ， huà wèi yī dào cùn xǔ zhǎng de yín máng ， fēi huí le tā de kǒu zhōng 。
只见他一张口，那短戟迅速缩小，化为一道寸许长的银芒，飞回了他的口中。
The moment the talisman left his hand, it ignited with dazzling light, resembling a silver sun from afar.
rán hòu tā zài chǔ wù dài shàng yī pāi ， qǔ chū le yī zhāng fú lái ， nà fú yuē yǒu bā zhǎng dà xiǎo ， yín guāng shǎn shǎn ， jí shǐ xiāng gé zhè me yuǎn 。 yě néng qīng yì fēn biàn chū de bù fán 。
然后他在储物袋上一拍，取出了一张符来，那符约有巴掌大小，银光闪闪，即使相隔这么远。也能轻易分辨出的不凡。
Soon, a monstrous bird materialized inside. Its form resembled that of a crane, with wings spanning dozens of feet in diameter, but only one leg. This was...
shòu fú ！
兽符！
Even Lin Xuan, known for his composure, couldn't help being awed. If he hadn't seen it wrong, this must be the legendary Flame God Bird—Pifang!
lín xuān mī le mī yǎn ， duì yú zhè dōng xī ， tā kě shì háo bù mò shēng ， kě cóng duì fāng níng zhòng de biǎo qíng ， yǐ jí shàng miàn suǒ sàn fà chū lái dì líng qì ， xiǎn rán bú shì zì jǐ yǐ qián suǒ shǐ yòng guò de nà zhǒng cū zhì làn zào de dōng xī kě yǐ xiāng bǐ ， nán dào lǐ miàn fēng yìn dì shì ……
林轩眯了眯眼，对于这东西，他可是毫不陌生，可从对方凝重的表情，以极上面所散发出来地灵气，显然不是自己以前所使用过的那种粗制滥造的东西可以相比，难道里面封印地是……
A creature as powerful as an ancient dragon!
gù fēng jiāng fú ná dào yǎn qián ， yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī bù shě ， dàn hěn kuài jiù bèi shā yì suǒ tì dài le 。 zhāng kāi zuǐ 。 yī kǒu jīng qì pēn chū 。
顾风将符拿到眼前，眼中闪过一丝不舍，但很快就被杀意所替代了。张开嘴。一口精气喷出。
This wasn't just a matter of several tiers of monsters; in ancient legends, Pifang was a steed for immortals.
nà fú lí shǒu yǐ hòu ， lì kè rán shāo le qǐ lái 。 bìng fàng shè chū duó mù dì guāng cǎi ， cóng yuǎn chù kàn lái ， jiù xiàng yī lún yín sè de tài yáng yì bān 。
那符离手以后，立刻燃烧了起来。并放射出夺目的光彩，从远处看来，就像一轮银色的太阳一般。
"Didn't I say that Pifang couldn't possibly be sealed into a beast talisman? It's clearly a fake," Lin Xuan smirked.
hěn kuài ， yī tóu jù dà de guài niǎo cóng lǐ miàn huàn huà le chū lái ， qí xíng rú hè ， guāng shì yì zhǎn jiù yǒu shù shí zhàng fāng yuán ， jǐn yǒu yī zú 。 zhè shì ……
很快，一头巨大的怪鸟从里面幻化了出来，其形如鹤，光是翼展就有数十丈方圆，仅有一足。这是……
"Fake?" Feng's expression turned even colder. "Brat, you'll taste the might of my Heaven Current Bird."
jí biàn yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ ， yě bù yóu sǒng rán dòng róng ， jiǎ rú méi yǒu kàn cuò de huà ， zhè shì chuán shuō zhōng de huǒ yàn shén niǎo ---- bì fāng ！
即便以林轩的城府，也不由耸然动容，假如没有看错的话，这是传说中的火焰神鸟----必方！
With one hand across his chest and the other extending two fingers, he exhaled essence energy as he shouted, "Go!"
hé yuǎn gǔ lóng zú yī yàng qiáng dà de cún zài ！
和远古龙族一样强大的存在！
The Heaven Current Bird stretched its neck in a long cry, circling above Feng before unleashing a fiery cloud that rushed towards Lin Xuan.
zhè yǐ jīng bú shì jǐ jiē yāo shòu de wèn tí ， zài gǔ lǎo dì chuán shuō lǐ ， bì fāng nǎi shì xiān rén de zuò qí 。
这已经不是几阶妖兽的问题，在古老地传说里，必方乃是仙人的坐骑。
Its presence was shocking. The temperature around it rose sharply even before reaching him. Lin Xuan's expression changed; any trace of contempt vanished. He raised his three-foot-long sword and swung it, causing the six subsidiary swords to fly back and circle around his body at high speed.
lín xuān yī jīng ， bù guò hěn kuài ， jiù zhèn dìng le xià lái 。
林轩一惊，不过很快，就镇定了下来。
A blue glow appeared between the blades, quickly coalescing into a shimmering water mist that rose skyward, transforming into a spinning water dragon several feet thick.
zhè jué fēi bì fāng de hún pò ， jiǎ rú zhēn shì qí cán hún suǒ zhì chéng de shòu fú ， qǐ shì tā yí gè zhù jī qī xiū shì jiù kě yǐ jià yù de ， yǒu cǐ bǎo wù ， zài zhè yī jiè ， jī hū kě yǐ shuō shì yǐ jīng wú dí de cún zài le ， bié shuō zì jǐ ， xiǎng bì jiù suàn shì jí è mó zūn jiàn le ， yě wéi yǒu luò huāng ér táo yī tú 。
这绝非必方的魂魄，假如真是其残魂所制成的兽符，岂是他一个筑基期修士就可以驾驭的，有此宝物，在这一界，几乎可以说是已经无敌的存在了，别说自己，想必就算是极恶魔尊见了，也唯有落荒而逃一途。
The space cleared of heat as the clearness spread. But in an instant, the sky turned red again as the fiery cloud formed by the Heaven Current Bird rushed at him with ferocity.
yòng líng yǎn shù yī kàn ， guǒ rán ， cǐ niǎo suī rán zhǎng dé hěn xiàng bì fāng ， dàn yī xiē xì wēi de qū bié hái shì kě yǐ fēn biàn 。
用灵眼术一看，果然，此鸟虽然长得很像必方，但一些细微的区别还是可以分辨。

"That's my master!"
With the other party having admitted their mistake, Lin Xuan naturally didn't mind pretending for now. If they were to let him go out of fear of harming a mouse, that would be the best outcome.
