chuán shuō zhōng de zhēn líng 。
传说中的真灵。
The legendary True Spirit.
suī rán wú fǎ yǔ bǎi niǎo zhī wáng zhōng de fèng huáng xiāng bǐ 。
虽然无法与百鸟之王中的凤凰相比。
Though it couldn't match the phoenix in the Hundred Birds, its power was still formidable. Especially this creature, which excelled at devouring demons and ghosts, making it a mortal enemy to most spirits.
dàn shí lì yě shì bù kě qīng rǔ dì ， yóu qí cǐ wù ， shàn shí yāo guǐ ， yīn cǐ gèng shì yīn hún guǐ wù zuì wèi jù pà de kè xīng 。
但实力也是不可轻辱地，尤其此物，擅食妖鬼，因此更是阴魂鬼物最为惧怕的克星。
Although this mountain golden sun painting didn’t have the full might of a true golden sun, since it contained the essence soul of one, it naturally inherited the True Spirit’s fondness for feasting on demons and ghosts.
suī rán zhè fú shān yuè jīn wū tú ， wēi néng bù jí zhēn zhèng jīn wū zhī wàn yī ， dàn jì rán fēng yìn yǒu qí jīng hún ， zì rán yě jiù yán xù le cǐ zhēn líng xǐ dàn yāo guǐ de tè xìng 。
虽然这幅山岳金乌图，威能不及真正金乌之万一，但既然封印有其精魂，自然也就延续了此真灵喜啖妖鬼的特性。
In other words, that skull-piercing object was exactly what it needed. After their contact, within just a few rounds, the golden sun easily gained the upper hand.
huàn jù huà shuō ， zhèng shì nà kū lóu tóu téng zhī wù ， yú shì liǎng xiāng jiē chù ， jǐn jǐn jǐ gè huí hé ， jīn wū jiù dà zhàn shàng fēng 。
换句话说，正是那骷髅头疼之物，于是两相接触，仅仅几个回合，金乌就大占上风。
Old Monster Zhong was truly both shocked and enraged. The Ten Thousand Souls Banner wasn’t something he had created; it was a treasure of his sect, but its malevolent energy was too intense for ordinary Spirit Cultivators to use without fear. He only dared to command this treasure after successfully advancing to the Lesser Transcendence Stage.
zhōng lǎo guài dàng zhēn shì yòu jīng yòu nù ， zhè wàn hún fān kě bú shì tā liàn zhì chū lái de ， ér shì běn mén zhèn pài zhī bǎo ， zhǐ bù guò lì qì tài zhòng ， xún cháng fēn shén qī xiū shì gēn běn bù gǎn shǐ yòng ， tā yě shì jìn jiē xiǎo dù jié qī chéng gōng ， cái gǎn qū cè zhè jiàn bǎo wù 。
钟老怪当真是又惊又怒，这万魂幡可不是他炼制出来的，而是本门镇派之宝，只不过戾气太重，寻常分神期修士根本不敢使用，他也是进阶小渡劫期成功，才敢驱策这件宝物。
He originally intended to make an immediate breakthrough, but unexpectedly, his strange artifact was being held in check by the opponent’s.
yuán běn xiǎng yào yī jī jiàn gōng ， méi xiǎng dào yòu bèi duì fāng guǐ yì fǎ bǎo kè zhì zhù 。
原本想要一击建功，没想到又被对方诡异法宝克制住。
Wasn’t there something wrong? Could a Spirit Cultivator at the One Spirit Stage really use such means?
yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò ， zhè zhēn shì yī fēn shén qī xiū shì néng shī zhǎn de shǒu duàn me ？
有没有搞错，这真是一分神期修士能施展的手段么？
Before he could even think this through, one of the twelve massive mountains suddenly emitted a flash of spirit light and vanished from sight.
zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， jiù jiàn nà shí èr zuò jù shān zhōng de qí zhōng yī zuò líng guāng yī shǎn ， suí hòu xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
这个念头尚未转过，就见那十二座巨山中的其中一座灵光一闪，随后消失不见。
The next moment, it appeared above his head, showing no mercy as it crashed down hard.
xià yī kè jìng mò rán chū xiàn zài le qí tóu dǐng shàng miàn ， háo bú kè qì ， hěn hěn zá là xià lái 。
下一刻竟蓦然出现在了其头顶上面，毫不客气，狠狠砸落下来。
Old Monster Zhong was shocked to the core. Although his eyesight was exceptional, he had long recognized the extraordinary nature of these twelve green peaks, but he never imagined such a massive object could instantaneously teleport through space.
zhōng lǎo guài dà jīng shī sè ， suī rán tā de yǎn lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， zǎo yǐ kàn chū zhè shí èr zuò cuì fēng de bù fán zhī chù ， dàn yě bù céng xiǎng guò ， zhè yàng de páng rán dà wù ， jū rán néng gòu àn hé kōng jiān fǎ zé ， shuō shùn yí ， jiù zhè yàng qīng sōng shùn yí guò lái le 。
钟老怪大惊失色，虽然他的眼力非同小可，早已看出这十二座翠峰的不凡之处，但也不曾想过，这样的庞然大物，居然能够暗合空间法则，说瞬移，就这样轻松瞬移过来了。
If hit by this, it wouldn’t be a laughing matter.
zhè yī xià ruò shì bèi zá zhōng ， kě bú shì kāi wán xiào de 。
这一下若是被砸中，可不是开玩笑的。
He tried to dodge with a step, only to find that the air around him suddenly became much more condensed. While not so severe as to paralyze him, escaping before the mountain fell on top of him was now nothing but a pipe dream.
tā tái jiǎo xiǎng duǒ ， què fā xiàn zhōu wéi de kōng qì ， yī xià zi níng zhì le xǔ duō ， suī rán zhè yàng de chéng dù ， hái bù zhì yú ràng qí dòng tán bù dé ， rán ér xiǎng yào zài jù fēng yā dǐng yǐ qián xiān yī bù táo tuō ， yě jiù chéng chī rén shuō mèng le 。
他抬脚想躲，却发现周围的空气，一下子凝滞了许多，虽然这样的程度，还不至于让其动弹不得，然而想要在巨峰压顶以前先一步逃脱，也就成痴人说梦了。
Damn!
kě wù ！
可恶！
Old Monster Zhong was truly terrified and enraged. However, he couldn’t just sit idly by.
zhōng lǎo guài jīng nù zhī yú ， dàng zhēn shì bèi xià dé hún fēi tiān wài le 。
钟老怪惊怒之余，当真是被吓得魂飞天外了。
Staying in place without doing anything would be tantamount to waiting for death.
bù guò tā zì rán bù kě néng shù shǒu jiù fù 。
不过他自然不可能束手就缚。
He waved his hands like a butterfly, emitting an astonishing spiritual pressure from his body as he did so.
liú zài yuán dì shén me yě bù zuò jiǎn zhí jiù yǔ děng sǐ shì yī yàng de 。
留在原地什么也不做简直就与等死是一样的。
A black light flashed above him, and a shadow of the golden sun appeared, towering at fifty or sixty feet high. It was a bizarre bird with six eyes and four wings, looking fearsome.
zhǐ jiàn tā shuāng shǒu rú chuān huā hú dié yì bān huī wǔ ， suí zhe qí dòng zuò ， yī gǔ jīng rén zhī jí de líng yā yóu qí shēn shàng sà rán zhàn fàng ér chū 。
只见他双手如穿花蝴蝶一般挥舞，随着其动作，一股惊人之极的灵压由其身上飒然绽放而出。
Secret Technique of Manifestation!
tóu dǐng hēi máng yī shǎn ， yī dào wǔ liù shí zhàng gāo de huàn yǐng zhòu rán fú xiàn 。
头顶黑芒一闪，一道五六十丈高的幻影骤然浮现。
Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted. The strange bird appeared, flapping its four wings wildly, instantly creating a series of grayish hurricane winds that rose into the sky.
jū rán shì yí tòng tǐ mò lǜ de guài niǎo liù mù sì chì ， zhēng níng yì cháng 。
居然是一通体墨绿的怪鸟六目四翅，狰狞异常。
The scene was fierce, but it couldn’t lift the mountain. Thunderous sounds echoed as the mountain continued to crash down. Seeing no hope, the bird's six demonic eyes emitted intense light and swiftly flew up on its own.
fǎ xiàng mì shù ！
法相秘术！
Despite being over fifty feet long, compared to the mountain, it was still too small. While it might be an exaggeration to say it was like a tiny ant trying to shake a tree, in comparison, it was clearly outmatched.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， zhǐ jiàn nà guài niǎo xiàn shēn yǐ hòu ， sì zhǐ chì bǎng kuáng shàn ， dùn shí yī dào dào huī méng méng de jù fēng chōng tiān ér xiàn 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，只见那怪鸟现身以后，四只翅膀狂扇，顿时一道道灰蒙蒙的飓风冲天而现。
It couldn’t fully support the falling mountain, but by flapping its wings as hard as possible, slowing down its descent wasn't too difficult.
shēng shì měng è ， fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， rán ér xiǎng yào jiāng shān fēng tuō qǐ hái shì tài guò chī rén shuō mèng le 。
声势猛恶，非同小可，然而想要将山峰托起还是太过痴人说梦了。
Inmaster/expert/proficient player dueling, every millimeter counts. With this strange bird’s manifestation giving him that extra moment, Old Monster Zhong finally escaped.
hōng lōng lóng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà jù shān yī jiù shì hěn hěn zá luò ， jiàn shì bù kě wèi nà guài niǎo liù zhǐ yāo mù ， tóng shí xiōng máng dà qǐ ， chì bǎng kuáng shǎn ， jū rán zì jǐ fēi le shàng qù 。
轰隆隆的声音传入耳朵，那巨山依旧是狠狠砸落，见事不可为那怪鸟六只妖目，同时凶芒大起，翅膀狂闪，居然自己飞了上去。
However, just as he was about to vent his anger, a thunderous sound echoed in his ears. The strange bird couldn’t withstand the mountain and was crushed into powder.
jǐn guǎn tā shēn cháng wǔ liù shí zhàng yǒu yú dàn yǔ jù shān xiāng bǐ ， yī jiù shì tài xiǎo le yī xiē 。
尽管它身长五六十丈有余但与巨山相比，依旧是太小了一些。
Secret Technique of Manifestation was different from ordinary secret techniques; it was like a life-bound treasure weapon, connected directly to the cultivator's heart and mind.
shuō pí fú hàn shù huò xǔ yǒu xiē tài guò ， rán ér liǎng zhě xiāng jiào dàng zhēn shì xiǎo wū jiàn dà wū 。
说蚍蜉撼树或许有些太过，然而两者相较当真是小巫见大巫。
Old Monster Zhong would suffer just as much if crushed into powder. He felt as though he had been struck by a massive hammer in his chest, unable to bear it any longer, spitting out blood.
wán quán tuō zhù shān fēng xià luò shì bù kě néng de ， bù guò quán lì shǎn dòng chì bǎng ràng qí xià luò sù dù shāo huǎn ， què hái bù suàn tài guò wéi nán 。
完全托住山峰下落是不可能的，不过全力闪动翅膀让其下落速度稍缓，却还不算太过为难。
Lin Xuan, seizing this opportunity, saw that the Mountain Golden Sun painting was successful. How could he abandon such a method? He raised his right hand and pointed at the mountain again.
ér gāo shǒu guò zhāo ， zhǐ zhēng lí háo ， yǒu zhè guài niǎo fǎ xiàng wèi qí zhēng qǔ dào de yī xiàn shí jiān ， zhōng lǎo guài zhōng yú táo chū shēng tiān 。
而高手过招，只争厘毫，有这怪鸟法相为其争取到的一线时间，钟老怪终于逃出生天。
As he moved, spatial ripples surged, and another mountain vanished from sight.
rán ér gāng gāng tuō xiǎn ， hái bù děng tā fā nù ， hōng de yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ nà guài niǎo dǐ dǎng bú zhù ， yǐ bèi shān fēng yìng shēng shēng yā chéng le fěn mò 。
然而刚刚脱险，还不等他发怒，轰的一声巨响传入耳朵那怪鸟抵挡不住，已被山峰硬生生压成了粉末。
Not just one, but several in quick succession.
fǎ xiàng shén tōng ， kě bù tóng yú yì bān de mì shù ， yǔ běn mìng fǎ bǎo yì bān ， tóng xiū shì nà shì xīn shén xiāng lián 。
法相神通，可不同于一般的秘术，与本命法宝一般，同修士那是心神相连。
Seizing the moment when he was weakened, Lin Xuan aimed to finish Old Monster Zhong off. However, the other party wasn’t about to let him have it so easily.
bèi yā wèi fěn mò ， zhōng lǎo guài yòu qǐ huì hǎo guò ， fǎng fú bèi dà chuí měng jī xiōng kǒu ， zài yě rěn nài bú zhù ， yī kǒu xiān xuè pēn chū 。
被压为粉末，钟老怪又岂会好过，仿佛被大锤猛击胸口，再也忍耐不住，一口鲜血喷出。
Unfurling the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, dark winds surged forth. The hundred and eight skeletons gathered in the middle turned into three zombies.
ér lín xuān shì dé lǐ bù ráo rén de yī jiàn shān yuè jīn wū tú jiàn gōng ， nǎ lǐ huì qì cǐ fǎ bù yòng ， tái qǐ yòu shǒu ， yòu shì yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn qù 。
而林轩是得理不饶人的一见山岳金乌图建功，哪里会弃此法不用，抬起右手，又是一指向前点去。
Roar!
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， kōng jiān bō dòng zhòu qǐ ， yòu yī zuò shān fēng bú jiàn le zōng jì 。
随着他的动作，空间波动骤起，又一座山峰不见了踪迹。
The sound echoed as the silver-skinned zombie swung its iron chain like a snake, sending firebirds retreating. For a moment, they were on the offensive, gaining the upper hand.
bù bú shì yī zuò ， ér shì jiē èr lián sān de 。
不不是一座，而是接二连三的。
The other two zipped back to Old Monster Zhong’s side, their roars growing in volume and size by over a hundred times. One wielded an enormous axe while the other held a long spear, slashing forward with great force.
chèn tā bìng ， yào tā mìng ， lín xuān shì dǎ suàn bì qí gōng yú yī yì jiāng zhōng lǎo guài yā chéng ròu bǐng liú zài zhè lǐ 。
趁他病，要他命，林轩是打算毕其功于一役将钟老怪压成肉饼留在这里。
Boom!
rán ér duì fāng zì rán bú huì guāi guāi de ràng tā rú yì 。
然而对方自然不会乖乖的让他如意。
The sky seemed cleaved into two halves by this strike.
shǒu zhōng wàn hún fān yī zhǎn ， yīn fēng dà zuò ， nà yì bǎi líng bā gè kū lóu ， wǎng zhōng jiān yī jù jí ， jū rán huán yuán chéng sān jù jiāng shī 。
手中万魂幡一展，阴风大做，那一百零八个骷髅，往中间一聚集，居然还原成三具僵尸。
Two crescent-shaped light blades emerged.
hǒu ！
吼！
A thunderous explosion echoed as the two mountains were sliced in half.
páo xiāo shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà jī fū chéng dàn yín sè de jiāng shī ， shǒu zhōng tiě liàn wǔ dòng yǒu rú líng shé suǒ guò zhī chù ， nà xiē huǒ niǎo fēn fēn tuì bì yī shí jiān fǎn kè wéi zhǔ ， dà zhàn shàng fēng 。
咆哮声传入耳朵，那肌肤呈淡银色的僵尸，手中铁链舞动有如灵蛇所过之处，那些火鸟纷纷退避一时间反客为主，大占上风。
Impressive!
ér lìng wài liǎng gè shēn xíng yī shǎn jū rán shī zhǎn shùn yí huí dào le zhōng lǎo guài de shēn biān ， páo xiāo shēng zhōng ， shēn gāo biàn dà le bǎi bèi yǒu yú ， yī chí jù fǔ ， yī chí zhǎng gē ， hěn hěn xiàng qián zhǎn qù 。
而另外两个身形一闪居然施展瞬移回到了钟老怪的身边，咆哮声中，身高变大了百倍有余，一持巨斧，一持长戈，狠狠向前斩去。
Lin Xuan’s expression changed. While he didn’t mind the ghost fire emitted by the skeletons, the zombies they transformed into were truly formidable. He hadn’t anticipated such a level of power from them.
hōng ！
轰！
However, no matter how difficult it was to handle, Lin Xuan sighed and behind him, golden light flared as his nine heads and eighteen arms unleashed the ultimate technique of Lesser Heavenly Mandala, now called Nine Heavens Divine Net, even more powerful than before.
tiān kōng dōu fǎng fú bèi zhè yī jī qiè wèi le liǎng bàn 。
天空都仿佛被这一击切为了两半。
His figure grew larger, and various weapons appeared in his hands—swords, spears, halberds, and so on. He swung them with great ferocity, fighting the two zombies fiercely.
liǎng mǒ liàng lì de yuè yá xíng guāng rèn fú xiàn chū lái 。
两抹亮丽的月牙形光刃浮现出来。
Old Monster Zhong was dumbfounded. Lin Xuan’s abilities were numerous and his divine powers formidable; he no longer dared to underestimate him. However, before he could think of a strategy, Lin Xuan raised his right hand again, revealing an ancient-looking spear.
jīng tiān dòng dì de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， xiān hòu fú xiàn de liǎng zuò jù shān jū rán bèi qiè wèi le liǎng bàn 。
惊天动地的爆裂声传入耳朵，先后浮现的两座巨山居然被切为了两半。
This weapon was only about ten feet long but its appearance was extremely simple. A domineering aura rose up as Lin Xuan held the spear high and fiercely swung it downward.
biāo hàn ！
彪悍！
A sizzling sound filled the air as a ferocious energy surged out, accompanied by countless runes flickering on the surface of the spear.
lín xuān yě bó rán sè biàn ， nà kū lóu pēn chū lái de guǐ huǒ yě jiù bà le ， biàn huàn chū lái de jiāng shī jū rán rú cǐ liǎo de ， zhè yì diǎn ， què shì tā shì xiān ， wú lùn rú hé ， yě bù céng xiǎng dào de 。
林轩也勃然色变，那骷髅喷出来的鬼火也就罢了，变幻出来的僵尸居然如此了得，这一点，却是他事先，无论如何，也不曾想到的。
The cold light shone brightly, followed by crescent-shaped light blades emerging. The text was imprinted beside them, forming mysterious arcs like tiny magical arrays.
bù guò zài nán yìng fù yě zǒng děi miàn duì ， lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， bèi hòu jīn máng zhà qǐ ， jiǔ tóu shí bā bì ， yě shī zhǎn chū le xiǎo luó tiān fǎ xiàng de jué jì ， bù ， rú jīn yīng gāi jiào jiǔ tiān shén luó xiāng ， wēi lì gèng shèn wǎng xī 。
不过再难应付也总得面对，林轩叹了口气，背后金芒乍起，九头十八臂，也施展出了小罗天法相的绝技，不，如今应该叫九天神罗相，威力更甚往昔。
Jumping and changing shape, their movements were intricate and unpredictable, tearing through space. Old Monster Zhong was shocked to the core, his back already drenched in sweat. Facing such a terrifying attack, he felt as though a great calamity was about to befall him.
shēn xíng yī shǎn ， tóng yàng shì biàn dà le qǐ lái ， tóng shí dāo qiāng jiàn jǐ ， shí bā bān bīng qì chū xiàn zài le tā de zhǐ zhǎng jiān ， shàng xià huī wǔ ， lì máng dà zuò ， yǔ liǎng jù liàn shī dòu le gè bù yì lè hū 。
身形一闪，同样是变大了起来，同时刀枪剑戟，十八般兵器出现在了它的指掌间，上下挥舞，厉芒大做，与两具炼尸斗了个不亦乐乎。
The One Spear of the Sea’s Impact was already fearsome enough.
zhōng lǎo guài chēng mù jié shé ， lín xuān shǒu duàn zhī duō ， shén tōng zhī qiáng ， yǐ ràng tā zài bù gǎn yǒu bàn fēn xiǎo shì zhī yì ， rán ér hái méi yǒu xiǎng hǎo yīng gāi zěn me yù dí ， lín xuān yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yī shì yàng gǔ piáo de zhǎng gē yòu chū xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ 。
钟老怪瞠目结舌，林轩手段之多，神通之强，已让他再不敢有半分小视之意，然而还没有想好应该怎么御敌，林轩右手抬起，一式样古朴的长戈又出现在视线里。
Added to the suddenness of it, there were no ordinary means for him to counter it. Fortunately, he wasn’t an ordinary cultivator; he was a Lesser Transcendence Stage powerhouse. In this crisis, his sleeves flung forward, seemingly casual but containingforce of the law.
cǐ bǎo wù zhǎng bù guò zhàng xǔ ， shì yàng què shì gǔ piáo yǐ jí ， yī gǔ bà dào de qì shì chōng tiān ér qǐ ， lín xuān yòu shǒu gāo jǔ ， suí hòu hěn mìng xiàng xià fāng huī wǔ le guò qù 。
此宝物长不过丈许，式样却是古朴以极，一股霸道的气势冲天而起，林轩右手高举，随后狠命像下方挥舞了过去。
Boom!
cī lā zhī shēng dà zuò ， yī gǔ xiōng lì qì zhī qì pèi rán ér chū ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì wú shù fú wén cóng zhǎng gē biǎo miàn ruò yǐn ruò xiàn de tūn tǔ 。
刺啦之声大做，一股凶戾气之气沛然而出，与之伴随的是无数符文从长戈表面若隐若现的吞吐。
A thunderous sound echoed as the light blade was completely nullified. The power of spatial laws truly was formidable. However, performing such a strike wasn’t easy for him either; it consumed immense amounts of magical energy and even some of his true essence. His face turned pale, showing clear signs of great fatigue.
Golden Horse!
The legendary True Spirit.
Though it couldn't match the phoenix in the Hundred Birds, its power was still formidable. Especially this creature, which excelled at devouring demons and ghosts, making it a mortal enemy to most spirits.
Although this mountain golden sun painting didn’t have the full might of a true golden sun, since it contained the essence soul of one, it naturally inherited the True Spirit’s fondness for feasting on demons and ghosts.

He originally intended to make an immediate breakthrough, but unexpectedly, his strange artifact was being held in check by the opponent’s.
Wasn’t there something wrong? Could a Spirit Cultivator at the One Spirit Stage really use such means?
Before he could even think this through, one of the twelve massive mountains suddenly emitted a flash of spirit light and vanished from sight.
