sān pài lián méng de xiū shì shì dí rén ， kě yǐ háo bù xīn ruǎn de jiāng tā men miè chú _)
三派联盟的修士是敌人，可以毫不心软的将他们灭除_)
The cultivators from the three alliances were enemies, and they could mercilessly eliminate them.
zhì yú yún yǐn zōng de liǎng bǎi duō míng xiū xiān zhě ， jì rán huì chū xiàn zài cǐ chù ， nà tā men de xuǎn zé ， yǔ sū rú yě jiù shì yī yàng de
至于云隐宗的两百多名修仙者，既然会出现在此处，那他们的选择，与苏茹也就是一样的
As for the 200 plus cultivators of Cloud Concealment Sect, since they appeared here, their choices would be the same as Su Ru's.
rén yào wèi zì jǐ de xíng wéi fù zé
人要为自己的行为负责
One must bear the consequences of one’s actions.
lín xuān zuò wèi tài shàng zhǎng lǎo ， cǐ kè yǒu zé rèn ， yě yǒu yì wù ， zhàn chū lái qīng lǐ mén hù
林轩做为太上长老，此刻有责任，也有义务，站出来清理门户
Lin Xuan, as the Supreme Elder, had a responsibility to clean up this mess. Giving them a chance to dissolve into nothingness was already an act of mercy.
ràng tā men bīng jiě yǐ shì fǎ wài kāi ēn le
让他们兵解已是法外开恩了
However, there were nearly a thousand cultivators in the valley now. Each had different thoughts. Some were bold and decisive, while others were cowardly and opportunistic. How could they make the same choice when their scheme was exposed?
rán ér cǐ kè ， shān gǔ zhōng de xiū shì zú yǒu jìn qiān gè
然而此刻，山谷中的修士足有近千个
Moreover, even if dissolution offered a chance to reincarnate, it was too uncertain for most people to bear the burden of their actions and hope for a miracle in thousands of years.
měi rén de xiǎng fǎ gè bù xiāng tóng
每人的想法各不相同
So, only a few like Su Ru chose to dissolve into nothingness, totaling less than twenty. The majority were hesitant, searching for ways to escape.
yǒu gǎn zuò gǎn wéi de ， yě yǒu dǎn qiè tóu jī zhě ， cǐ kè shì qíng bài lù ， zěn me kě néng zuò chū tóng yàng de xuǎn zé ？
有敢作敢为的，也有胆怯投机者，此刻事情败露，怎么可能做出同样的选择？
Lin Xuan had no interest in wasting time here. He had already given them an opportunity; if they did not want to die, he would personally send them to the underworld.
hé kuàng bīng jiě suī yǒu jī huì ràng hún pò zhòng rù lún huí ， kě xià yī shì ， bù guǎn cóng nǎ ge fāng miàn shuō ， dōu tài xū wú piāo miǎo le
何况兵解虽有机会让魂魄重入轮回，可下一世，不管从哪个方面说，都太虚无缥缈了
A look of ferocity flashed across Lin Xuan's eyes as he said nothing more. With a wave of his sleeves, countless green sword qi shot out like lightning, heading towards the nearly thousand cultivators gathered at the other end of the valley.
yòu yǒu jǐ rén yuàn yì wèi zì jǐ de xíng wéi mǎi dān fù zé ， jiāng shēng de xī wàng jì yú qiān bǎi nián zhī hòu ？
又有几人愿意为自己的行为买单负责，将生的希望寄于千百年之后？
"Ah! Save me!"
lóu yǐ shàng qiě tōu shēng ， tā men bù xī wàng xiàn zài yǔn luò
蝼蚁尚且偷生，他们不希望现在陨落
"I don't want to die, Senior, please spare me."
ér qǐ pàn zhe chū xiàn qí jì ， néng gòu huà xiǎn wéi yí
而企盼着出现奇迹，能够化险为夷
"How despicable, let’s fight this old monster to the death!"
yú shì ， rú sū rú yì bān bīng jiě de rén liáo liáo kě shǔ ， jiā zài yì qǐ bù zú èr shí gè
于是，如苏茹一般兵解的人寥寥可数，加在一起不足二十个
...
dà bù fèn xiū xiān zhě dōu shì yǎn shén bù dìng de chí yí zhe ， xún zhǎo zháo tuō shēn zhī cè
大部分修仙者都是眼神不定的迟疑着，寻找着脱身之策
Screams and cries filled the air as some knelt in supplication while others ran for their lives, wishing they could disappear into a crack in the ground. A few bold and rash ones tried to fight their way out with sheer numbers.
ér lín xuān kě méi yǒu xìng qù yǔ tā men zài zhè lǐ jiāng shí jiān xiāo mó ， zì jǐ yǐ jīng gěi guò jī huì le ， jì rán bù yuàn yì yǔn luò ， nà jiù yóu běn shào yé qīn zì sòng nǐ men qù yīn cáo dì fǔ
而林轩可没有兴趣与他们在这里将时间消磨，自己已经给过机会了，既然不愿意陨落，那就由本少爷亲自送你们去阴曹地府
Despite different reactions, the outcome was the same. Whether they resisted, begged for mercy, or attempted to escape, none succeeded. Lin Xuan's sword qi, though not fully unleashed, still swept through the valley like a storm of blood and gore.
lín xuān de yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī mǒ lì sè ， yě bù duō shuō ， xiù páo yī fú ， sōu sōu zhī shēng bù jué yú ěr duǒ ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， zhǐ jiàn wú shù qīng sè de jiàn qì jī shè ér chū ， rú shǎn diàn jīng hóng ， xiàng jù jí zài shān gǔ lìng yī tóu de jìn qiān xiū xiān zhě zǎn cì ér qù le
林轩的眼中闪过一抹厉色，也不多说，袖袍一拂，嗖嗖之声不绝于耳朵，随着他的动作，只见无数青色的剑气激射而出，如闪电惊虹，像聚集在山谷另一头的近千修仙者攒刺而去了
Nearly a thousand cultivators perished; none managed to escape with theirYuan Core soul intact after giving up on dissolution. One must pay the price for one’s choices.
“ a ， jiù mìng ”
“啊，救命”
The process seemed lengthy but took only a few breaths. Soon, the once empty valley returned to silence.
“ wǒ bù xiǎng yǔn luò ， qián bèi shǒu xià liú qíng ”
“我不想陨落，前辈手下留情”
Although the crisis seemed over, Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed. He did not forget that he had fallen into their trap.
“ kě wù ， yǔ zhè lǎo guài wù pīn le _)”
“可恶，与这老怪物拼了_)”
The river of hell poison was just one part of the conspiracy. Although it had been neutralized, the danger now faced was unprecedentedly severe.
……
……
Just moments ago, the headmaster of Spirit Ghost Sect had been eliminated unexpectedly, but the other old monsters mysteriously vanished without a trace.
yī shí jiān ， cǎn jiào shēng sì qǐ ， jiā zá zhe jīng hū hè mà de yǔ qì
一时间，惨叫声四起，夹杂着惊呼喝骂的语气
Even with his divine sense, he could not detect anything.
miàn duì màn tiān jiàn yǔ ， nà xiē xiū shì de fǎn yìng yě shì gè bù xiāng tóng dì ， yǒu de guì dǎo qiú ráo jiān qiě tòng kū liú tì ， yǒu de bào tóu shǔ cuàn ， hèn bù dé yǎn qián tū rán chū xiàn yī tiáo dì fèng ， rán hòu kě yǐ zuān jìn qù ， yě yǒu xiē xìng zhì jí zào de yǒng měng zhī tú ， xiǎng yào zhàng zhe rén duō yǔ lín xuān pīn le ， shā chū yī tiáo xuè lù
面对漫天剑雨，那些修士的反应也是各不相同地，有的跪倒求饶兼且痛哭流涕，有的抱头鼠窜，恨不得眼前突然出现一条地缝，然后可以钻进去，也有些性质急躁的勇猛之徒，想要仗着人多与林轩拼了，杀出一条血路
Lin Xuan did not believe that they all possessed some hidden power to evade detection. After all, his strength far surpassed that of his peers.
fǎn yìng gè bù xiāng tóng ， kě xī zuì hòu de jié guǒ ， què shì yī yàng de
反应各不相同，可惜最后的结果，却是一样的
If any of them were skilled in concealment techniques, it would be understandable. But if everyone had such abilities, it was clearly abnormal.
fǎn kàng yě hǎo ， qiú ráo yě hǎo hái shì xiǎng yào chèn luàn táo chū ， dōu méi yǒu yòng tú ， lín xuān shì fàng chū lái de jiàn qì ， suī rán méi yǒu yòng jìn quán lì ， yī jiù shì suǒ xiàng pī mǐ ， zài shān gǔ nèi guā qǐ le yī zhèn xīng fēng xuè yǔ
反抗也好，求饶也好还是想要趁乱逃出，都没有用途，林轩释放出来的剑气，虽然没有用尽全力，依旧是所向披靡，在山谷内刮起了一阵腥风血雨
It must have been a trap set by an array.
jìn qiān xiū xiān zhě ， quán bù yǔn luò ， méi yǒu yī rén jiāng yuán yīng hún pò táo tuō jì rán fàng qì bīng jiě de jī huì nà cǐ shí cǐ kè ， jiù béng xiǎng zhòng xiǎng jìn rù lún huí zhī dào le
近千修仙者，全部陨落，没有一人将元婴魂魄逃脱既然放弃兵解的机会那此时此刻，就甭想重想进入轮回之道了
With this thought, Lin Xuan fully extended his divine sense to see what he could discern, but to no avail.
rén ， zǒng yào wèi zì jǐ de xuǎn zé ， fù chū dài jià
人，总要为自己的选择，付出代价
He felt no trace of the array's power, and Lin Xuan's expression grew more serious.
zhěng gè guò chéng shuō qǐ lái fán fù ， qí shí qián hòu bù guò jǐ xī de gōng fu ， hěn kuài nà yuán běn jiù kōng kuàng de shān gǔ ， zhòng huī fù píng jìng le
整个过程说起来繁复，其实前后不过几息的功夫，很快那原本就空旷的山谷，重恢复平静了
His divine sense could not detect anything, indicating that the array was formidable indeed. It must not be taken lightly.
wēi jī sì hū guò qù rán ér lín xuān de yǎn jīng ， què wēi wēi mī qǐ tā bú huì wàng jì ， zì jǐ qí shí yǐ jīng luò rù le duì fāng de xiàn jǐng lǐ
危机似乎过去然而林轩的眼睛，却微微眯起他不会忘记，自己其实已经落入了对方的陷阱里
Originally, at this level of strength, even facing several peers in an ambush would have been easy to handle. But with an array as support, it was hard to predict the outcome.
míng hé zhī dú ， bù guò shì zǔ chéng yīn móu de huán jié zhī yī ， jǐn guǎn yǐ bèi zì jǐ huà jiě ， rán ér rú jīn ， miàn duì de tiǎo zhàn jiāng jiā de wēi xiǎn wú bǐ
冥河之毒，不过是组成阴谋的环节之一，尽管已被自己化解，然而如今，面对的挑战将加的危险无比
In any case, one must not be careless.
gāng gāng ， líng guǐ zōng zōng zhǔ ， shì bèi zì jǐ chū qí bù yì de miè chú ， rán ér qí tā jǐ míng lǎo guài wù ， què guǐ yì mò míng de xiāo shī bú jiàn le
刚刚，灵鬼宗宗主，是被自己出其不意的灭除，然而其他几名老怪物，却诡异莫名的消失不见了
Of course, being cautious is right. Lin Xuan was not afraid either; after all, he had already faced and single-handedly defeated a Transcendence Period avatar of Tiaomu. This time, could it be more dangerous than before?
yǐ zì jǐ de shén shí qiáng dù ， yě fēn háo chá jué yě wú
以自己的神识强度，也分毫察觉也无
Moreover, since refining his inner avatar, his strength had significantly increased even without advancing in cultivation stage.
lín xuān dāng rán bú huì rèn wéi ， tā men jiē yǒu shén tōng duǒ guò zì jǐ de tàn cè
林轩当然不会认为，他们皆有神通躲过自己的探测
...
bì jìng zì jǐ de shí lì ， shì yuǎn yuǎn shèng guò tóng jiē xiū shì de
毕竟自己的实力，是远远胜过同阶修士的
While Lin Xuan was on edge, the old monsters from the three alliances were equally anxious.
rú guǒ zhè xiē jiā huo zhōng ， yǒu mǒu yī rén de shàn cháng yǐn nì zhī shù nà hái hǎo shuō ， kě rén rén jiē néng rú cǐ ， nà jiù míng xiǎn yǒu xiē bú zhèng cháng le
如果这些家伙中，有某一人的擅长隐匿之术那还好说，可人人皆能如此，那就明显有些不正常了
People have reputations to maintain; although Lin Xuan rarely appeared, each of his moves was shocking. In the Star Moon City battle, he decapitated the Old Monster of Heaven's End.
kěn dìng bú shì běn shēn de shén tōng ， ér shì jiè zhù zhèn fǎ de yǎn hù
肯定不是本身的神通，而是借助阵法的掩护
The Wuhu Old Demon of Spirit Ghost Sect, with dual cultivation in physical and spiritual bodies, had a well-deserved reputation among peers. However, it was rumored that he was killed by Lin Xuan with just one punch.
xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， lín xuān shì quán lì jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， xiǎng yào kàn chū xiē xǔ duān ní ， rán ér què shì bái fèi lì qì
心中如此想着，林轩是全力将神识放出，想要看出些许端倪，然而却是白费力气
Although the three alliances' elders were skeptical, believing that the surviving disciples might have exaggerated to avoid blame, Wuhu Old Demon's fall at Lin Xuan's hands was undeniable.
tā xīn zhōng yī lǐn ， jū rán gǎn jué bù chū rèn hé zhèn fǎ zhī lì de bō dòng
他心中一凛，居然感觉不出任何阵法之力的波动
Therefore, they could not underestimate him in the slightest. Besides the Spirit Ghost Five Elements Array, they even bought Su Ru from Cloud Concealment Sect as a traitor and used a copy of river of hell poison as a trump card to ambush Lin Xuan.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng ， bù yóu de yuè fā yán sù qǐ lái le
林轩的表情，不由得越发严肃起来了
The plot was intricate, with each step carefully planned, showing how much they valued Lin Xuan.
yǐ zì jǐ de shén shí ， yě chá jué bù chū ， zú kě jiàn cǐ zhèn fǎ de fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， jué bù kě diào yǐ qīng xīn de
以自己的神识，也察觉不出，足可见此阵法的非同小可，绝不可掉以轻心的
Initially, everything went smoothly. Lin Xuan was caught off guard by the Separation Period cultivator's sneak attack. He delved too deeply into investigating, which only allowed the poison to invade his body. The elders of the three alliances were overjoyed at this unresisted victory.
yuán běn shí lì dào le lín xuān zhè ge chéng dù ， biàn shì miàn duì shù míng tóng jiē xiū shì de wéi gōng ， yě néng gòu qīng sōng yìng fù ， dàn ruò shì duì fāng yǒu zhèn fǎ de fǔ zhù ， jié guǒ rú hé ， kě jiù méi yǒu nà me róng yì fēn biàn le
原本实力到了林轩这个程度，便是面对数名同阶修士的围攻，也能够轻松应付，但若是对方有阵法的辅助，结果如何，可就没有那么容易分辨了
However, their hopes were dashed when they discovered that young Lin had not been poisoned; he had been feigning weakness all along. After uncovering everything, he suddenly struck with full force and killed the headmaster of Spirit Ghost Sect in one blow.
zǒng zhī dà yì bù dé
总之大意不得
Wasn't this too bold? Even as a sect leader, his strength was far above his peers. To be able to kill him so easily...
dāng rán ， xiǎo xīn gù rán shì méi cuò ， yào shuō pà ， lín xuān què yě shì wèi bì de
当然，小心固然是没错，要说怕，林轩却也是未必的
Lin Xuan's power was much more terrifying than imagined.
bì jìng lián dù jié qī de táo wù huà shēn dōu yǐ jīng dān tiāo guò ， zhè cì zài wēi xiǎn nán dào hái néng gòu yǔ shàng yī huí xiāng bǐ me ？
毕竟连渡劫期的梼杌化身都已经单挑过，这次再危险难道还能够与上一回相比么？
Although others fled when they saw the situation turning against them and had an array to rely on, Lin Xuan's performance was too extraordinary, leaving the three alliances' elders in a state of extreme fear.
hé kuàng liàn zhì chū shēn nèi huà shēn yǐ hòu ， lín xuān de shí lì ， zài jìng jiè bù biàn de qíng kuàng xià ， yòu yǒu bù shǎo bào zhǎng de
何况炼制出身内化身以后，林轩的实力，在境界不变的情况下，又有不少暴涨的
TheSubdivision Spirit Stage elders exchanged glances, momentarily stunned. But this could not be allowed; they must find a way to deal with this formidable enemy.
……
……

The cultivators from the three alliances were enemies, and they could mercilessly eliminate them.
