dāng rán ， zhè zhǐ shì lín xuān de chuǎi mó ， jù tǐ shì bú shì ， yě hěn nán shuō 。
当然，这只是林轩的揣摩，具体是不是，也很难说。
Of course, this was just Lin Xuan's speculation. Whether or not it would work remained uncertain.
dàn rú jīn ， yǐ yóu bù dé tā chí yí 。
但如今，已由不得他迟疑。
But now, he could no longer hesitate. Otherwise, his life might be lost here.
fǒu zé shuō bù dìng huì jiāng xiǎo mìng sòng zài zhè lǐ 。
否则说不定会将小命送在这里。
After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xuan had to take a gamble.
quán héng lì bì ， lín xuān zhǐ néng yī dǔ 。
权衡利弊，林轩只能一赌。
Fortunately, he won.
hái hǎo tā yíng le 。
还好他赢了。
Neither the Fairy Hundred Flowers nor the True Toad Jin Yue paid any attention to this minor spirit fragment existence.
bù lùn bǎi huā xiān zi hái shì jīn yuè zhēn chán ， dōu méi yǒu zài hū yī xiǎo xiǎo fēn shén qī cún zài de 。
不论百花仙子还是金玥真蟾，都没有在乎一小小分神期存在的。
However, Lin Xuan did not relax as a result; on the contrary, his unease grew stronger.
ér lín xuān què bìng méi yǒu yīn cǐ ， ér sōng qì ， qià qià xiāng fǎn ， tā xīn zhōng de bù ān ， yuè fā de qiáng liè le 。
而林轩却并没有因此，而松气，恰恰相反，他心中的不安，越发的强烈了。
Thus, without delay, he needed to escape to the farthest possible distance.
yú shì ， tā háo bù dān gē ， bì xū jǐn kuài táo dào zuì yuǎn zhī chù 。
于是，他毫不耽搁，必须尽快逃到最远之处。
Originally, using a random teleportation talisman would have been the best choice, but it had already been used up.
yuán běn suí jī chuán sòng fú shì zuì hǎo de xuǎn zé ， kě xī yǐ jīng yòng diào le 。
原本随机传送符是最好的选择，可惜已经用掉了。
Although ordinary遁光 could travel at lightning speed, the current situation was clearly too urgent for that.
pǔ tōng de dùn guāng suī rán yě fēng chí diàn chè ， dàn rú jīn zhè jú miàn ， què shì míng xiǎn lái bù jí de 。
普通的遁光虽然也风驰电掣，但如今这局面，却是明显来不及的。
In his haste, Lin Xuan did not think much and unleashed another of his secret techniques.
jí qiè zhī jiān ， lín xuān bù jí duō zuò sī suǒ ， shī zhǎn chū tā lìng yī yā xiāng dǐ de mì shù 。
急切之间，林轩不及多做思索，施展出他另一压箱底的秘术。
Phantom Escape!
huàn yǐng dùn ！
幻影遁！
When he first learned this technique, it consumed a lot of essence energy, allowing him to travel thousands of miles in an instant. Now, with Lin Xuan's strength far surpassing what it was back then, moving several ten thousand miles wasn't unusual at all.
gāng xué huì cǐ shù de shí hòu ， xiāo hào dà liàng de jīng yuán ， néng gòu shùn xī qiān lǐ ， rú jīn ， lín xuān de shí lì ， yǔ dāng chū xiāng bǐ ， zǎo yǐ gāo le bù zhī fán jǐ 。
刚学会此术的时候，消耗大量的精元，能够瞬息千里，如今，林轩的实力，与当初相比，早已高了不知凡几。
Without delay, Lin Xuan immediately used the technique and quickly moved several ten thousand miles away.
jiù suàn nuó yí shàng liǎng sān wàn lǐ yě shì hěn zhèng cháng dì 。
就算挪移上两三万里也是很正常地。
"Phew!"
shì bù yí chí ， lín xuān lì kè shī zhǎn chū cǐ shù ， zhì yú zhōng jiān de guò chéng ， bù yòng lèi shù ， guǒ rán yǐ jí kuài de sù dù ， nuó yí diào liǎng sān wàn lǐ le 。
事不宜迟，林轩立刻施展出此术，至于中间的过程，不用累述，果然以极快的速度，挪移掉两三万里了。
Lin Xuan sighed in relief as he prepared to continue his escape. However, just at this moment,
lín xuān sōng le kǒu qì ， zhèng zhǔn bèi jì xù nuó yí ， rán ér jiù zài cǐ kè 。
林轩松了口气，正准备继续挪移，然而就在此刻。
An unimaginable roar echoed into his ears. The volume was so loud that it could not be described, as if the sound waves alone were about to shatter the entire world.
hōng ！
轰！
Pfft... Although the sound did not target Lin Xuan specifically, he still felt its impact. Despite this, Lin Xuan's eyes went wide with shock and his chest filled with surging qi and blood, nearly causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
yī shēng nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà shēng yīn zhī dà ， dào le nán yǐ yán yù de dì bù ， fǎng fú jiù píng shēng bō ， jiù yào jiāng tiān dì ， quán bù zhèn wèi suì piàn diào le 。
一声难以想象的巨响传入耳朵，那声音之大，到了难以言喻的地步，仿佛就凭声波，就要将天地，全部震为碎片掉了。
Terrified, Lin Xuan immediately used Nine Heavens Microstep and crashed into the ground.
pū …… xiāng gé shù wàn lǐ ， nà shēng yīn yě bìng fēi zhēn duì lín xuān dì ， tā jǐn jǐn shì bèi yāng jí ， rán ér jí biàn rú cǐ ， lín xuān yī jiù bèi zhèn dé liǎng yǎn fā zhí ， xiōng zhōng qì xuè fān yǒng bù yǐ ， chà diǎn rěn bú zhù yī kǒu xiān xuè pēn chū qù 。
噗……相隔数万里，那声音也并非针对林轩地，他仅仅是被殃及，然而即便如此，林轩依旧被震得两眼发直，胸中气血翻涌不已，差点忍不住一口鲜血喷出去。
He employed earth遁术,潜入地底深处.
lín xuān dà hài zhī xià ， èr huà bù shuō ， shī zhǎn jiǔ tiān wēi bù ， pēng de yī shēng zhuàng xiàng le dì biǎo de ní tǔ 。
林轩大骇之下，二话不说，施展九天微步，嘭的一声撞像了地表的泥土。
Recalling the battle between the Pillar of Heaven and the Old Ice Immortal in the Ice Sea Realm, Lin Xuan remembered clearly. The self-destructive power had turned a vast area into barren land. These two opponents were far more powerful than the Pillar of Heaven and the Old Ice Immortal. Since he couldn't run any further, diving underground was his only choice.
shī zhǎn tǔ dùn zhī shù ， qián xiàng dì dǐ shēn chù 。
施展土遁之术，潜像地底深处。
This was his best option.
zài bīng hǎi jiè shí ， táo wù yǔ xuán bīng lǎo zǔ yī yì ， lín xuān jì de qīng chǔ 。
在冰海界时，梼杌与玄冰老祖一役，林轩记得清楚。
However, deep down, Lin Xuan remained anxious. The good news was that this was just a manifestation, so even if it got eliminated by the explosion, his true body would be unharmed.
nà zì bào de wēi lì ， jiāng fāng yuán shù wàn lǐ ， huà wèi le yī piàn jiāo tǔ ， ér yǎn qián liǎng gè jiā huo de shí lì ， kě yuǎn shèng táo wù yǔ xuán bīng lǎo zǔ ， jì rán lái bù jí pǎo dào gèng yuǎn zhī chù ， lín xuān yě zhǐ néng qián rù dì dǐ le 。
那自爆的威力，将方圆数万里，化为了一片焦土，而眼前两个家伙的实力，可远胜梼杌与玄冰老祖，既然来不及跑到更远之处，林轩也只能潜入地底了。
But still, he had put considerable effort into cultivating this external manifestation and the second元婴. It was better not to perish.
zhè shì tā wéi yī yě shì zuì hǎo de xuǎn zé 。
这是他唯一也是最好的选择。
However, all of this was beyond his control now.
rán ér lín xuān nèi xīn shēn chù ， yī jiù shì zhàn zhàn jīng jīng de ， wéi yī zhí de qìng xìng de shì ， zài cǐ dì de ， jǐn shì huà shēn ér yǐ ， jí biàn yùn qì bù hǎo ， bèi yāng jí chí yú de miè shā diào le ， běn tǐ yě bú huì yǒu dà ài de 。
然而林轩内心深处，依旧是战战兢兢的，唯一值得庆幸的是，在此地的，仅是化身而已，即便运气不好，被殃及池鱼的灭杀掉了，本体也不会有大碍的。
Fortunately, Lin Xuan's luck was good. The True Toad Jin Yue sacrificed its primordial body, and although the explosion was terrifying, it was limited to a few hundred miles. The sound waves could travel farther, but the blast itself was confined to that area. Since he had successfully used the Phantom Escape secret technique, even if he didn't dive underground, it wouldn't affect him.
dàn huà shì zhè me méi cuò 。
但话是这么没错。
The explosion tore apart space, leaving nothing behind. It came and went swiftly, with little residual effect. Thus, Lin Xuan quickly realized that hiding underground wasn't necessary after all.
zhè jù shēn wài huà shēn zì jǐ yě fèi le bù xiǎo de gōng fu ， dì èr yuán yīng de xiū liàn gèng shì fèi jǐn bō zhé ， néng bù yǔn luò ， zì rán hái shì bù yǔn luò shì zuì hǎo de 。
这具身外化身自己也废了不小的功夫，第二元婴的修炼更是费尽波折，能不陨落，自然还是不陨落是最好的。
After a brief hesitation, a beam of light shot up from the ground as Lin Xuan emerged, floating in mid-air. He released his divine sense while squinting his eyes, staring far into the distance.
rán ér zhè yī qiè yǐ bú shì tā néng gòu zhǎng wò 。
然而这一切已不是他能够掌握。
For ordinary people, several ten thousand miles was an unimaginable distance that could take a lifetime to traverse.
hǎo zài lín xuān de yùn qì zhe shí bù cuò 。
好在林轩的运气着实不错。
But for a cultivator like Lin Xuan, it meant nothing.
jīn yuè zhēn chán shě le běn yuán zhī tǐ ， nà bào liè de wēi lì ， gù rán shì hài rén yǐ jí ， kě hái shì nà jù huà ， shí lì dào le tā men zhè ge céng cì ， duì yú néng liàng de yùn yòng yǐ shì fēi cháng jīng xì ， yú bō tài duō huì yǐng xiǎng wēi lì ， duì yú tā men lái shuō ， yǔ làng fèi wú yí 。
金玥真蟾舍了本源之体，那爆裂的威力，固然是骇人以极，可还是那句话，实力到了他们这个层次，对于能量的运用已是非常精细，余波太多会影响威力，对于他们来说，与浪费无疑。
With such a strong divine sense, he could easily cover such a vast area. However, this time, it wasn't possible.
gù ér nà bào zhà de wēi lì suī fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， dàn què shì jú xiàn yú fāng yuán shù bǎi lǐ chù 。
故而那爆炸的威力虽非同小可，但却是局限于方圆数百里处。
The explosion's power was too great and confined to a few hundred miles. The space in that area had been completely destroyed, even the laws of nature were broken, leaving only chaos. Heaven and earth seemed to have merged into one, a state akin to the primordial era before the universe was created.
shēng bō yào chuán dé gèng yuǎn shì méi yǒu bàn fǎ zhǎng wò ， dàn bào zhà de wēi lì ， qí shí jiù jǐn jǐn zài nà yī kuài de ， lín xuān jì yǐ chéng gōng shī zhǎn le huàn yǐng dùn mì shù ， nà jí biàn méi yǒu táo rù dì dǐ yě bú huì yǒu fēn háo yǐng xiǎng le 。
声波要传得更远是没有办法掌握，但爆炸的威力，其实就仅仅在那一块的，林轩既已成功施展了幻影遁秘术，那即便没有逃入地底也不会有分毫影响了。
In such a state, his divine sense couldn't detect anything.
ér nà bào zhà de wēi lì ， ràng zhěng gè kōng jiān sī liè huà wèi le xū wú ， dàn yě shì lái de xùn sù ， qù dé tóng yàng xùn sù ， jiā shàng yú bō bù duō ， suǒ yǐ lín xuān hěn kuài jiù chá jué dào ， zì jǐ duǒ rù dì dǐ ， qí shí gēn běn jiù shì méi yǒu duō dà bì yào de 。
而那爆炸的威力，让整个空间撕裂化为了虚无，但也是来得迅速，去得同样迅速，加上余波不多，所以林轩很快就察觉到，自己躲入地底，其实根本就是没有多大必要的。
Looking far ahead, it was just a gray haze. Even if it wasn't in that chaotic state, several ten thousand miles would be too far for any cultivator's eyesight. Lin Xuan had only come here as an external manifestation, and while its powers weren't weak, they were still inferior to his true body. He hadn't even practiced the "Heaven Phoenix Divine Eye," so he couldn't discern anything.
lüè yī chí yí ， yī dào jīng máng chōng tiān ér qǐ ， lín xuān cóng dì dǐ dùn chū ， xuán fú yú jiǔ tiān zhī chù ， yī biān jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， yī biān yǎn jīng wēi mī ， dìng dìng de wàng xiàng nà jí yuǎn zhī chù 。
略一迟疑，一道精芒冲天而起，林轩从地底遁出，悬浮于九天之处，一边将神识放出，一边眼睛微眯，定定的望向那极远之处。
What should he do?
shù wàn lǐ ， duì yú fán rén lái shuō ， shì fēi cháng yáo yuǎn de jù lí ， yī bèi zi ， kǒng pà yě nán yǐ zǒu shàng nà me yuǎn de lù 。
数万里，对于凡人来说，是非常遥远的距离，一辈子，恐怕也难以走上那么远的路。
For a moment, Lin Xuan was at a loss. Should he sneak back to investigate or simply turn around and leave?
rán ér duì yú lín xuān zhè ge děng jiē de xiū xiān zhě ， zé gēn běn suàn bù liǎo shén me 。
然而对于林轩这个等阶的修仙者，则根本算不了什么。
Both choices had their pros and cons.
yǐ lín xuān shén shí zhī qiáng ， gèng shì néng qīng yì jiāng zhè yàng dà de fàn wéi náng kuò 。
以林轩神识之强，更是能轻易将这样大的范围囊括。
If he went back, he wouldn't know if the Fairy Hundred Flowers survived after Jin Yue's self-destructive explosion. If he rashly approached, his life would be in danger. But on the other hand, there was also a tempting opportunity hidden behind this immense peril.
rán ér zhè yī cì ， què shì bù xíng le 。
然而这一次，却是不行了。
Just before moving, Lin Xuan had seen Jin Yue being killed by the Fairy Hundred Flowers' supreme divine power. The woman couldn't escape her bindings and was too close to the explosion. Based on his speculation, it was almost certain that she perished.
nà bào zhà de wēi lì ， tài guò fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yòu bèi jú xiàn yú xiǎo xiǎo shù bǎi lǐ de jù lí ， yú shì ， nà yī piàn de kōng jiān ， yǐ bèi wán quán huǐ qù ， shèn zhì lián tiān dì fǎ zé ， yě bèi wán quán pò huài diào le ， biàn chéng le xū wú de yī piàn ， tiān yǔ dì ， sì hū dōu yǐ jīng zhān lián ， jiǎn dān de shuō ， jiù shì hùn dùn yī piàn ， fǎng fú tài gǔ ， hùn dùn chū kāi zhī qián 。
那爆炸的威力，太过非同小可，又被局限于小小数百里的距离，于是，那一片的空间，已被完全毁去，甚至连天地法则，也被完全破坏掉了，变成了虚无的一片，天与地，似乎都已经粘连，简单的说，就是混沌一片，仿佛太古，混沌初开之前。
Think about it!
zhè yàng yī zhǒng zhuàng tài ， shén shí zì rán qǐ bú dào fēn háo de xiào guǒ 。
这样一种状态，神识自然起不到分毫的效果。
The destruction of a true spirit meant a treasure trove. Even if he couldn't find the skin, bones, or precious inner core, just one drop of spiritual blood would make cultivators go wild.
mù guāng wàng guò qù ， yě shì huī méng méng de ， hé kuàng jí biàn bú shì nà zhǒng hùn dùn de zhuàng tài ， shù wàn lǐ de jù lí ， yǐ xiū shì de mù lì ， yě wěi shí tài guò yáo yuǎn le yī xiē ， lín xuān lái dào zhè lǐ de ， zhǐ shì yī jù huà shēn ér yǐ ， shén tōng suī rán bù ruò ， dàn yǔ běn tǐ xiāng bǐ ， bì jìng hái shì yuǎn yuǎn bù jí ， gèng méi yǒu xiū liàn guò “ tiān fèng shén mù ” nà yàng de qí shù ， zì rán gèng kàn bù chū yí gè suǒ yǐ rán le 。
目光望过去，也是灰蒙蒙的，何况即便不是那种混沌的状态，数万里的距离，以修士的目力，也委实太过遥远了一些，林轩来到这里的，只是一具化身而已，神通虽然不弱，但与本体相比，毕竟还是远远不及，更没有修炼过“天凤神目”那样的奇术，自然更看不出一个所以然了。
Even if most of these treasures were devoured by the explosion, even a small fraction left behind would be enough for him to gain immensely. If he could somehow find Jin Yue's inner core or any remnants of her primordial essence... Lin Xuan couldn't think about it; he was too excited. Such gains would have significant benefits for his future cultivation path.
gāi zěn me bàn ？
该怎么办？
Moreover, this was just the potential from Jin Yue. There was a more powerful Fairy Hundred Flowers nearby?
yī shí zhī jiān ， lín xuān yě xiàn rù le liǎng nán 。
一时之间，林轩也陷入了两难。
In such an explosion, she indeed disintegrated. But what about her storage bag? It might survive and contain untold treasures. Lin Xuan had seen the wealth of Pillar of Heaven True Person, which was beyond imagination. A storage bag filled with one of the Seven Divine Trees of cultivation, the Nourishing Spirit Tree, as a boat. The Fairy Hundred Flowers was at his level, so her assets were likely similar.
Of course, this was just Lin Xuan's speculation. Whether or not it would work remained uncertain.
But now, he could no longer hesitate. Otherwise, his life might be lost here.
After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Xuan had to take a gamble.
Fortunately, he won.
Neither the Fairy Hundred Flowers nor the True Toad Jin Yue paid any attention to this minor spirit fragment existence.
However, Lin Xuan did not relax as a result; on the contrary, his unease grew stronger.
Thus, without delay, he needed to escape to the farthest possible distance.
Originally, using a random teleportation talisman would have been the best choice, but it had already been used up.
