ěr biān chuán lái wú shù qī lì de guǐ míng ， lín xuān liǎn sè yīn chén de dīng zhe tiān kōng zhōng de xū yǐng 。
耳边传来无数凄厉的鬼鸣，林轩脸色阴沉的盯着天空中的虚影。
Earphones filled with countless eerie cries of ghosts. Lin Xuan's face turned grim as he stared at the shadowy figure in the sky.
yīn hún ！
阴魂！
"Ha, Lin Brother, didn't expect this, did you?"
qiě bìng fēi pǔ tōng rén sǐ hòu suǒ huà de lì guǐ ， ér shì yāo shòu de jīng hún ， shù liàng gèng dào dá le hài rén tīng wén de dì bù ， zú yǒu shàng qiān zhī duō 。
且并非普通人死后所化的厉鬼，而是妖兽的精魂，数量更到达了骇人听闻的地步，足有上千之多。
Momo's voice rang out triumphantly. He held a small bronze bell in his hand and his eyes were full of mockery.
“ hē hē ， lín xiōng ， zěn me yàng ， méi yǒu xiǎng dào ba ！”
“呵呵，林兄，怎么样，没有想到吧！”
"Not bad, indeed quite surprising."
dé yì zhī jí de xiào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， mò mǎng de shǒu lǐ ná zhe yī quán tou dà xiǎo de tóng zhōng ， yǎn zhōng mǎn shì xì xuè zhī sè 。
得意之极的笑声传入耳朵，莫莽的手里拿着一拳头大小的铜钟，眼中满是戏谑之色。
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow before regaining his composure: "I expected that once I found the treasure, you would turn against me. But I didn't expect such a hidden weapon from you."
“ bù cuò ， què shí ràng wǒ dà chī yī jīng 。”
“不错，确实让我大吃一惊。”
He glanced at the beast spirits surrounding Momo: "These should be ancient restrictions set by some old cultivator. I never thought you could control them. Do you have any interest in explaining this to me?"
lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo zhī hòu ， jiù huī fù le cóng róng lěng jìng ：“ suī rán wǒ zǎo liào dào xún dào bǎo wù yǐ hòu ， gé xià dìng huì fān liǎn ， kě méi xiǎng dào nǐ hái yǒu zhè yàng de shā shǒu jiǎn 。
林轩眉头一挑之后，就恢复了从容冷静：“虽然我早料到寻到宝物以后，阁下定会翻脸，可没想到你还有这样的杀手锏。
Seeing Lin Xuan's calm demeanor, Momo's expression darkened. But then he seemed to recall something and burst into a laugh: "Ha, Lin Brother, no need to pretend. With the power of these beast spirits, unless your strength reaches the Yuanxian stage, you will surely die."
shuō dào zhè lǐ ， lín xuān kàn le yī xià piāo fú zài mò mǎng zhōu wéi de shòu hún ：“ zhè xiē dōng xī ， yīng gāi shì gǔ xiū shì suǒ shè xià de jìn zhì ， méi xiǎng dào gé xià jū rán néng gòu kòng zhì ， zěn me yàng ， yǒu méi yǒu xìng qù xiàng lín mǒu jiě shuō
说到这里，林轩看了一下漂浮在莫莽周围的兽魂：“这些东西，应该是古修士所设下的禁制，没想到阁下居然能够控制，怎么样，有没有兴趣像林某解说
"Friend, have you answered my question?"
jiàn lín xuān liǎn shàng háo wú huāng luàn zhī sè ， mò mǎng de biǎo qíng bù yóu yīn chén xià lái le ， dàn suí jí yòu xiàng xiǎng qǐ shén me shì de méi tóu yī zhǎn ， sǎ rán dà xiào le qǐ lái ：“ hē hē ， lín xiōng wú xū gù zuò zhèn jìng le ， cǐ shí wǒ suǒ cāo zòng de zhè xiē shòu hún jìn zhì ， chú fēi gé xià de shí lì jìn jiē dào le yuán yīng qī ， fǒu zé bì sǐ wú yí ， jué wú xìng lǐ 。”
见林轩脸上毫无慌乱之色，莫莽的表情不由阴沉下来了，但随即又像想起什么似的眉头一展，洒然大笑了起来：“呵呵，林兄无需故作镇静了，此时我所操纵的这些兽魂禁制，除非阁下的实力进阶到了元婴期，否则必死无疑，绝无幸理。”
"Alright, Lin Brother, your courage is commendable. Considering your help in finding this treasure, I'll let it go. Now, you can...die!"
“ dào yǒu hái méi yǒu huí dá wǒ de wèn tí 。”
“道友还没有回答我的问题。”
Before he could finish speaking, his finger tapped on the small bell.
“ hǎo ba ， lín xiōng dǎn sè kě jiā ， niàn zài zhè xún bǎo lù shàng ， nǐ yě chū lì bù shǎo de qíng fēn xià ， wǒ jiù ràng nǐ zuò gè míng bái guǐ ba ！” mò mǎng lěng xiào le yī xià ：“ nǐ kě zhī wǒ de lái lì ？”
“好吧，林兄胆色可嘉，念在这寻宝路上，你也出力不少的情分下，我就让你做个明白鬼吧！”莫莽冷笑了一下：“你可知我的来历？”
Zong...
“ gé xià shì sān jiē yāo zú 。 qí tā dì wǒ jiù bù zhī dào le 。” lín xuān yī biān shuō 。 yī biān qiāo qiāo dì yòng shén shí sǎo miáo le yī xià nà xiē yāo shòu dì jīng pò 。 dà bù fèn dōu shì èr jiē yǐ shàng dì yāo zú 。 shí lì bù róng qīng rǔ 。
“阁下是三阶妖族。其他地我就不知道了。”林轩一边说。一边悄悄地用神识扫描了一下那些妖兽地晶魄。大部分都是二阶以上地妖族。实力不容轻辱。
A low and ancient voice echoed through the stone room as a myriad of beast spirits seemed to receive an order. The wind howled mournfully, and ghostly cries pierced the air as they rushed towards Lin Xuan.
dāng rán 。 duì xiàn zài dì lín xuān ér yán 。 dān gè dì bù suàn shén me 。 dàn shàng qiān dì shù liàng yī yōng ér shàng 。 bié shuō zì jǐ 。 jiù suàn shī zūn lái le 。 yě zhǐ yǒu tuì bì sān shè 。 néng gòu dǐ dǎng dì 。 zhǐ yǒu nà xiē yuán yīng qī dì lǎo guài wù 。
当然。对现在地林轩而言。单个地不算什么。但上千地数量一拥而上。别说自己。就算师尊来了。也只有退避三舍。能够抵挡地。只有那些元婴期地老怪物。
The scene was shocking, but Lin Xuan's expression quickly turned serious. He reached into his storage bag and produced a folding fan with a white aura surrounding him.
mò mǎng zhè jiā huo 。 dào yě méi yǒu kuā dà qí cí 。 zhǐ shì tā zěn me néng gòu kòng zhì zhè gǔ xiū shì suǒ liú xià lái dì jìn zhì ？
莫莽这家伙。倒也没有夸大其词。只是他怎么能够控制这古修士所留下来地禁制？
This treasure was given by Senior Immortal Tongyu, its power beyond measure. A protective shield enveloped Lin Xuan.
guān jiàn yīng gāi zài tā shǒu lǐ dì nà kǒu xiǎo zhōng 。
关键应该在他手里地那口小钟。
Then, black light flickered around him as he transformed, revealing an eerie presence. He took out a ghost bag from his waist and threw it into the sky.
bìng fēi lín xuān qīng xīn dà yì 。 cóng jìn rù zhè jiān shí wū kāi shǐ 。 lín xuān jiù yòng shén shí duì tā jìn xíng jiān shì 。 pò zhào dì guò chéng bìng méi yǒu shén me bù tuǒ 。 kě rèn píng lín xuān zài xīn sī líng mǐn 。 zài jǐn shèn xiǎo xīn 。 yě liào bú dào duì fāng shǒu lǐ běn lái jiù yǒu kòng zhì zhè xiē yāo hún dì líng qì 。
并非林轩轻心大意。从进入这间石屋开始。林轩就用神识对他进行监视。破罩地过程并没有什么不妥。可任凭林轩再心思灵敏。再谨慎小心。也料不到对方手里本来就有控制这些妖魂地灵器。
Roars filled the air as over a dozen humanoid creatures appeared, their green bodies and blood-red eyes exuding ferocity. These were zombies Lin Xuan had cultivated using the Heaven Devil Corpse Technique. Although fewer in number, they were now ready to fight, having reached the point where they needed to be upgraded.
duì fāng dì shēn fèn 。 zhe shí yǒu xiē kě yí 。 dāng rán 。 lín xuān shuō zhè xiē 。 yě yǒu tuō yán shí jiān zhī yì 。 bù guò kàn duì fāng dì biǎo qíng 。 sì hū yì diǎn yě bù zài hū 。 lín xuān liǎn shàng suī rán yī jiù dàn dìng cóng róng 。 dàn xīn zhōng què jiàn jiàn kāi shǐ zháo jí le 。.
对方地身份。着实有些可疑。当然。林轩说这些。也有拖延时间之意。不过看对方地表情。似乎一点也不在乎。林轩脸上虽然依旧淡定从容。但心中却渐渐开始着急了。.
Lin Xuan's actions didn't stop there; he spat out a divine flame bead.
zhèng xīn niàn diàn zhuǎn de sī liáng zhe yìng duì zhī jì ， mò mǎng de shēng yīn yǐ jīng zhuàn rù le ěr duǒ lǐ 。
正心念电转的思量着应对之计，莫莽的声音已经传入了耳朵里。
Though unexpected, this was fortunate. He hadn't anticipated falling into such a trap, but fire-based talismans should counteract ghostly spirits.
“ zài xià nǎi shì jiāo shé yī zú ， zhè xiān kuàng zhōng de mǒu wèi huà xíng qī qián bèi ， nǎi shì mò mǒu de xiān zǔ 。”
“在下乃是蛟蛇一族，这仙矿中的某位化形期前辈，乃是莫某的先祖。”
Lin Xuan's eyes glinted as he focused on the approaching beast spirits. Just then, the air before him rippled like water, and a young woman appeared out of thin air—Lin Yue'er, appearing to help her master in this dire situation.
“ jiāo lóng ？” lín xuān zhòu le zhòu méi ， gù míng sī yì ， cǐ yāo zú jù yǒu jiāo lóng de xuè mài ， chuán shuō nǎi shì tiān shàng dé dào de líng jiāo ， yǔ zhè yī jiè de xiōng shé jiāo pèi hòu suǒ shēng ， guài shuō bù dé qū qū sān jiē jiù néng huà xíng 。 dàn lín xuān guān zhù de bìng bú shì zhè ge ， ér shì hòu miàn suǒ tòu lù dì xìn xī ， bó rán biàn sè ：“ nǐ shuō zhè shàng gǔ yāo zú zhōng yǒu yī wèi shì nǐ de xiān zǔ ？”
“蛟龙？”林轩皱了皱眉，顾名思义，此妖族具有蛟龙的血脉，传说乃是天上得道的灵蛟，与这一界的凶蛇交配后所生，怪说不得区区三阶就能化形。但林轩关注的并不是这个，而是后面所透露地信息，勃然变色：“你说这上古妖族中有一位是你的先祖？”
Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned but quickly regained his composure. He exhaled a breath of essence at the divine flame bead.
“ bù cuò ， cǐ líng zhōng jiù shì wǒ zú de shèng wù ， néng gòu kòng zhì zhè xiān kuàng zhōng dì wàn qiān yāo hún 。”
“不错，此灵钟就是我族的圣物，能够控制这仙矿中地万千妖魂。”
The bead spun rapidly as countless golden flames erupted from it, more powerful than the pure yang fire of a Condensation Stage cultivator.
“ guài bù dé nǐ yǒu cáng bǎo tú ， kàn lái nà yě shì dài dài xiāng chuán zhī wù ， nǐ zǎo zhī dào zhè lǐ yǒu yāo hún jìn zhì ， gù ér xiǎng zài cǐ dì jī shā lín mǒu ？” lín xuān shēng yīn yīn hán de kāi
“怪不得你有藏宝图，看来那也是代代相传之物，你早知道这里有妖魂禁制，故而想在此地击杀林某？”林轩声音阴寒的开
Screams echoed as several beast spirits were engulfed by the divine flames and reduced to ashes.
“ bù cuò ！” mò mǎng de yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī lǚ xiōng cán de guāng máng ：“ qián yīn hòu guǒ wǒ yǐ jiě shì qīng chǔ ， suàn shì rén zhì yì jìn le 。 xiàn zài ， nǐ kě yǐ …… qù sǐ le ！”
“不错！”莫莽的眼中闪过一缕凶残的光芒：“前因后果我已解释清楚，算是仁至义尽了。现在，你可以……去死了！”
Lin Xuan's face showed satisfaction. The power of this talisman was indeed incomparable to that of a spirit weapon—like heaven and earth apart.
huà yīn wèi luò ， tā shēn chū shǒu lái ， qū zhǐ zài xiǎo zhōng shàng yī dàn 。
话音未落，他伸出手来，屈指在小钟上一弹。
But this was just their first clash. Momo smirked, tapping his finger on the small bell again.
yī dī chén gǔ piáo de shēng yīn zài shí wū zhōng dàng kāi ， rán hòu nà wàn qiān yāo hún fǎng fú jiē dào le mìng lìng yì bān ， yīn fēng cǎn cǎn ， guǐ míng zhī shēng yóu rú yào cì pò rén de ěr mó ， hū xiào zhe xiàng lín xuān pū guò lái le 。
一低沉古朴的声音在石屋中荡开，然后那万千妖魂仿佛接到了命令一般，阴风惨惨，鬼鸣之声犹如要刺破人的耳膜，呼啸着像林轩扑过来了。
The sound waves spread out as the beast spirits opened their mouths, spewing colorful light projectiles.
shēng shì jīng rén yǐ jí ， jí biàn yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ 。 liǎn shàng yě bù yóu lù chū le jīng jù zhī yì 。 dàn xià yī kè ， jiù wèi jù zhī sè jǐn qù 。 biǎo qíng yán sù shēn chū shǒu ， zài chǔ wù dài shàng yī pāi ， bái guāng shǎn xiàn ， yī zào xíng gǔ piáo de zhé shàn chū xiàn zài le yǎn qián 。
声势惊人以极，即便以林轩的城府。脸上也不由露出了惊惧之意。但下一刻，就畏惧之色尽去。表情严肃伸出手，在储物袋上一拍，白光闪现，一造型古朴的折扇出现在了眼前。
Though each projectile wasn't particularly powerful, their combined force made it impossible for anyone below the Yuanxian stage to withstand them. Lin Xuan dodged swiftly and shot several sword qi from his sleeves.
cǐ bǎo shì tōng yǔ zhēn rén suǒ cì ， shén miào wú fāng ， fàng chū yí gè bái sè de hù zhào ， jiāng lín xuān quán shēn lǒng zhào 。
此宝是通羽真人所赐，神妙无方，放出一个白色的护罩，将林轩全身笼罩。
Two low-grade beast spirits fell, but soon he was surrounded by fierce beast spirits, barely managing to escape with difficulty.
rán hòu lín xuān hún shēn hēi máng yī shǎn ， zhěng gè rén dì qì xī biàn dé guǐ yì qǐ lái ， shēn shǒu zhāi xià yāo jiān de yī zhī líng guǐ dài ， wàng tiān kōng zhōng pāo qù 。
然后林轩浑身黑芒一闪，整个人地气息变得诡异起来，伸手摘下腰间的一只灵鬼袋，望天空中抛去。
Despite the danger, Lin Xuan couldn't afford any more entanglements and had to dodge and fight.
sī hǒu shēng chuán rù ěr lǐ ， shí jǐ tóu rén xíng de guài wù chū xiàn ， yí gè gè tǐ shēng lǜ máo ， shuāng mù yān hóng shì xuè ， xiōng bào zhī qì pèi rán ér lái ， zhèng shì lín xuān yòng tiān mó guǐ shī shù suǒ jì liàn chū lái de nà shí jǐ tóu jiāng shī ， shù liàng suī rán shǎo le diǎn ， dàn cǐ kè miàn duì nà me duō guài wù ， lín xuān nǎ lǐ hái gǎn cáng zhuō ， hé kuàng jiù tā xiàn zài de xiū wèi ér yán ， zhè xiē jiāng shī de shí lì yě yǐ jīng piān ruò ， shì dào le bào fèi shēng jí de shí kè ， cǐ kè jiù ràng men huī yú rè ， zuò pào huī dǐ dǎng yī èr yě shì hǎo de 。
嘶吼声传入耳里，十几头人形的怪物出现，一个个体生绿毛，双目殷红似血，凶暴之气沛然而来，正是林轩用天魔鬼尸术所祭炼出来的那十几头僵尸，数量虽然少了点，但此刻面对那么多怪物，林轩哪里还敢藏拙，何况就他现在的修为而言，这些僵尸的实力也已经偏弱，是到了报废升级的时刻，此刻就让们挥余热，做炮灰抵挡一二也是好的。
Moon's situation was even worse. Facing so many ghostly creatures, she soon panted heavily.
dāng rán ， lín xuān de shǒu duàn bù jǐn yú cǐ ， zuǐ bā zhāng chù ， tǔ chū le xuán huǒ shén zhū 。
当然，林轩的手段不仅于此，嘴巴张处，吐出了玄火神珠。
The zombies fought bravely but were quickly overwhelmed by the hundreds of low-grade beast spirits, their bodies covered in wounds.
shuō qǐ lái ， yě suàn shì bù xìng zhōng dì wàn xìng ， lín xuān méi xiǎng guò zì jǐ huì luò rù zhè yàng de xiàn jǐng ， dàn yāo hún yě shì yōu míng zhī wù ， huǒ shǔ xìng de fǎ bǎo yìng gāi yě yǒu suǒ kè zhì de 。
说起来，也算是不幸中地万幸，林轩没想过自己会落入这样的陷阱，但妖魂也是幽冥之物，火属性的法宝应该也有所克制的。
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as he cast a spell with his hands. Boom!
lín xuān shuāng yǎn jīng guāng shǎn shuò ， dīng zhe pū miàn ér lái de yāo hún ， zhèng yào yǒu suǒ dòng zuò ， yǎn qián de kōng qì tū rán rú tóng shuǐ bō bān dàng yàng kāi lái ， yī wèi shào nǚ píng kōng chū lái 。
林轩双眼精光闪烁，盯着扑面而来的妖魂，正要有所动作，眼前的空气突然如同水波般荡漾开来，一位少女凭空出来。
Explosive sounds echoed as Lin Xuan chose to let the zombies self-destruct for mutual destruction. The power was significant, and many nearby beast spirits were caught up in it.
qiǎo xiào qiàn xī ， róng yán měi lì ， zhèng shì lín yuè ér jiàn xíng shì wēi jí ， zhǔ dòng xiàn shēn bāng zhù zhǔ rén duì dí 。
巧笑倩兮，容颜美丽，正是林月儿见形势危急，主动现身帮助主人对敌。
"Hmph, mere last-ditch efforts."
lín xuān yī dāi zhī xià ， yě jiù shōu huí le shén sī ， chōng zhe shēn qián de xuán huǒ shén zhū pēn chū yī kǒu jīng qì 。
林轩一呆之下，也就收回了神思，冲着身前的玄火神珠喷出一口精气。
Momo paid no mind. His ancestor's notes clearly stated that this ghostly spirit array was formidable; any cultivator below Yuanxian stage would surely die.
nà xuán huǒ shén zhū dī liū liū de zhuǎn le qǐ lái ， rán hòu wú shù chì jīn sè de huǒ yàn cóng lǐ miàn kuáng yǒng chū lái ， yán sè suī rán xiāng jìn ， dàn lùn wēi lì bǐ níng dān qī xiū shì dì chún yáng dān huǒ hái yào gèng shèng yī chóu 。
那玄火神珠滴溜溜的转了起来，然后无数赤金色的火焰从里面狂涌出来，颜色虽然相近，但论威力比凝丹期修士地纯阳丹火还要更胜一筹。
With greedy eyes on the treasures within the light barrier, he quickly realized they were all his. Lin Xuan's displayed abilities also made him relieved—this boy had hidden strength. Even a Condensation Stage mid-stage opponent might be uncertain of victory against him.
zhī zhī cǎn jiào shēng zhōng ， chōng zài zuì qián miàn dì jǐ gè yāo hún bèi shén huǒ tūn mò ， huà wéi huī jìn ， xiāo shī dé wú yǐng wú zōng 。
吱吱惨叫声中，冲在最前面地几个妖魂被神火吞没，化为灰烬，消失得无影无踪。
But Momo was already doomed!
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū yī lǚ dé sè ， zhè fǎ bǎo de wēi lì guǒ rán yǔ líng qì dà bù xiāng tóng ， zhèng què dì shì shuō yí gè tiān shàng ， yí gè dì xià ， yòng pàn ruò yún ní lái xíng róng yě bù wèi guò ……
林轩脸上露出一缕得色，这法宝的威力果然与灵器大不相同，正确地是说一个天上，一个地下，用判若云泥来形容也不为过……
Lin Xuan continuously waved his hands as the divine flame bead emitted intense light. The golden flames condensed into a giant net, trapping several beast spirits. But before he could celebrate, a two-headed flying snake appeared and tore open the fire net with its horn.
dàn zhè jǐn jǐn shì chū cì jiāo fēng ， nà mò mǎng zuǐ jiǎo biān yǐn xiǎn jī fěng ， zài cì shēn chū zhǐ tou zài xiǎo zhōng shàng yī qiāo 。
但这仅仅是初次交锋，那莫莽嘴角边隐显讥讽，再次伸出指头在小钟上一敲。
Two-Headed Flying Snake!
“ wēng ！”
“嗡！”
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. This was a three-stage beast spirit, even in soul form, its strength rivaled that of its living counterpart.
shēng bō dàng kāi ， nà xiē yāo hún gè zì zhāng kāi zuǐ ， cóng lǐ miàn pēn chū huò dà huò xiǎo ， wǔ yán liù sè de guāng dàn 。
声波荡开，那些妖魂各自张开嘴，从里面喷出或大或小，五颜六色的光弹。
But this was only the beginning. More terrifying monsters emerged, their powerful presence filling the air. Lin Xuan's divine sense revealed four formidable ghostly creatures behind him.
měi yī méi wēi lì bìng bù rú hé 。 dàn zhè me duō dié jiā zhī xià ， chú le yuán yīng qī lǎo guài ， shuí gǎn yìng káng a ， lín xuān dà jīng ， shēn xíng yī shǎn ， yǐ jīng duǒ kāi 。 rán hòu wǔ zhǐ qǔ zhāng ， sī sī jiàn qì cóng xiù páo zhōng jī shè chū lái ……
每一枚威力并不如何。但这么多叠加之下，除了元婴期老怪，谁敢硬扛啊，林轩大惊，身形一闪，已经躲开。然后五指曲张，丝丝剑气从袖袍中激射出来……
A huge black bear with two heads stood to his left, while a small bird the size of a palm spread its wings, releasing endless cold that froze golden flames. To his right was a grotesque spider with a ghostly face, as large as a grindstone—just looking at it made one's body numb.
dǎo shì shè là le liǎng zhǐ yī jiē de dī jí yāo zú ， dàn hěn kuài lín xuān jiù bèi jǐ tóu xiōng měng de yāo hún chán shàng ， lián shī shén tōng hǎo bù róng yì cái bǎi tuō chū lái ， fǒu zé zhè me duō yāo hún yī yōng ér shàng ……
倒是射落了两只一阶的低级妖族，但很快林轩就被几头凶猛的妖魂缠上，连施神通好不容易才摆脱出来，否则这么多妖魂一拥而上……
All were three-stage beast spirits equivalent to Condensation Stage experts.
suī rán yǒu jīng wú xiǎn ， dàn lín xuān yě xià chū le yī shēn lěng hàn ， bù gǎn zài zuò sī háo de jiū chán ， zhǐ néng yóu dòu duǒ shǎn 。
虽然有惊无险，但林轩也吓出了一身冷汗，不敢再做丝毫的纠缠，只能游斗躲闪。
Lin Xuan felt a bitter taste in his mouth. Even without considering the other beast spirits, these four terrifying creatures posed an insurmountable challenge for him.
tā shàng qiě rú cǐ ， yuè ér nà biān jiù gèng jiā xíng shì kān yōu 。 miàn duì zhè me duō yīn hún guǐ wù de wéi gōng ， bù xiāo yī shí sān kè ， yuè ér jiù yǐ jīng jiāo chuǎn xū xū le 。
他尚且如此，月儿那边就更加形势堪忧。面对这么多阴魂鬼物的围攻，不消一时三刻，月儿就已经娇喘吁吁了。
If only he had enough earth-grade spirit talismans, they might have fought. But his storage bag contained only some human-grade ones, barely able to buy time.
zhì yú nà shí jǐ tóu jiāng shī 。 dǎo shì hàn bù wèi sǐ ， sī yǎo zhuā chě ， wú suǒ bù yòng qí jí 。
至于那十几头僵尸。倒是悍不畏死，撕咬抓扯，无所不用其极。
Lin Xuan cursed inwardly but maintained a calm expression. Fear was useless; the priority was to think of how to defeat this powerful enemy and escape from danger.
rán ér zài jìn bǎi dī jiē yāo hún de wéi gōng xià ， hěn kuài jiù shāng hén lěi lěi ， jí jí kě wēi 。
然而在近百低阶妖魂的围攻下，很快就伤痕累累，岌岌可危。
"Quick!"
lín xuān de yǎn zhōng ， shǎn guò yī lǚ yì sè ， shuāng shǒu qiā jué ， měng dì yī huī 。 hōng ！
林轩的眼中，闪过一缕异色，双手掐诀，猛地一挥。轰！
Lin Xuan manipulated the divine flame bead, initiating an attack first.
jù xiǎng jiē èr lián sān de chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lín xuān xuǎn zé le ràng jiāng shī zì bào 。 tóng guī yú jìn de wēi lì fēi xiǎo ， fù jìn de yāo hún bèi juǎn rù le bù shǎo 。
巨响接二连三的传入耳朵，林轩选择了让僵尸自爆。同归于尽的威力非小，附近的妖魂被卷入了不少。
The small room filled with colorful beams as spiritual energy oscillated, interspersed with ghostly roars. The battle reached its peak intensity.
“ hēng ， chuí sǐ zhēng zhá ér yǐ 。”
“哼，垂死挣扎而已。”
After a moment,
mò mǎng bù yǐ wéi yì ， xiān zǔ suǒ liú xià lái de shǒu zhá xiě dé hěn qīng chǔ ， zhè yāo hún dà zhèn de wēi lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yuán yīng qī yǐ xià dì xiū shì xiàn rù qí zhōng jué duì shì yǒu sǐ wú huó 。
莫莽不以为意，先祖所留下来的手札写得很清楚，这妖魂大阵的威力非同小可，元婴期以下地修士陷入其中绝对是有死无活。
"Master, what should we do?"
kàn zhe guāng zhào zhōng de dōng xī tā de liǎn shàng mǎn shì tān lán zhī sè ， hěn kuài ， zhè xiē bǎo wù quán dōu shì zì jǐ de ， dāng rán 。 lín xuān suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de shén tōng yě ràng tā qìng xìng bù yǐ ， zhè xiǎo zi guǒ rán yǒu cáng zhuō ， bié shuō níng dān chū qī de xiū shì le ， jiù suàn shì níng dān zhōng qī de zì jǐ duì shàng tā jiū jìng shuí shèng shuí fù ， yě hái shì liǎng shuō 。
看着光罩中的东西他的脸上满是贪婪之色，很快，这些宝物全都是自己的，当然。林轩所表现出来的神通也让他庆幸不已，这小子果然有藏拙，别说凝丹初期的修士了，就算是凝丹中期的自己对上他究竟谁胜谁负，也还是两说。
Looking at the black beast spirits surrounding her, Lin Yue'er's eyes showed a hint of fear.
Earphones filled with countless eerie cries of ghosts. Lin Xuan's face turned grim as he stared at the shadowy figure in the sky.
"Ha, Lin Brother, didn't expect this, did you?"
Momo's voice rang out triumphantly. He held a small bronze bell in his hand and his eyes were full of mockery.
"Not bad, indeed quite surprising."
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow before regaining his composure: "I expected that once I found the treasure, you would turn against me. But I didn't expect such a hidden weapon from you."
He glanced at the beast spirits surrounding Momo: "These should be ancient restrictions set by some old cultivator. I never thought you could control them. Do you have any interest in explaining this to me?"
Seeing Lin Xuan's calm demeanor, Momo's expression darkened. But then he seemed to recall something and burst into a laugh: "Ha, Lin Brother, no need to pretend. With the power of these beast spirits, unless your strength reaches the Yuanxian stage, you will surely die."
"Friend, have you answered my question?"
"Alright, Lin Brother, your courage is commendable. Considering your help in finding this treasure, I'll let it go. Now, you can...die!"
Before he could finish speaking, his finger tapped on the small bell.
Zong...
A low and ancient voice echoed through the stone room as a myriad of beast spirits seemed to receive an order. The wind howled mournfully, and ghostly cries pierced the air as they rushed towards Lin Xuan.
The scene was shocking, but Lin Xuan's expression quickly turned serious. He reached into his storage bag and produced a folding fan with a white aura surrounding him.
This treasure was given by Senior Immortal Tongyu, its power beyond measure. A protective shield enveloped Lin Xuan.
Then, black light flickered around him as he transformed, revealing an eerie presence. He took out a ghost bag from his waist and threw it into the sky.
Roars filled the air as over a dozen humanoid creatures appeared, their green bodies and blood-red eyes exuding ferocity. These were zombies Lin Xuan had cultivated using the Heaven Devil Corpse Technique. Although fewer in number, they were now ready to fight, having reached the point where they needed to be upgraded.
Lin Xuan's actions didn't stop there; he spat out a divine flame bead.
Though unexpected, this was fortunate. He hadn't anticipated falling into such a trap, but fire-based talismans should counteract ghostly spirits.
Lin Xuan's eyes glinted as he focused on the approaching beast spirits. Just then, the air before him rippled like water, and a young woman appeared out of thin air—Lin Yue'er, appearing to help her master in this dire situation.
Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned but quickly regained his composure. He exhaled a breath of essence at the divine flame bead.
The bead spun rapidly as countless golden flames erupted from it, more powerful than the pure yang fire of a Condensation Stage cultivator.
Screams echoed as several beast spirits were engulfed by the divine flames and reduced to ashes.
Lin Xuan's face showed satisfaction. The power of this talisman was indeed incomparable to that of a spirit weapon—like heaven and earth apart.
But this was just their first clash. Momo smirked, tapping his finger on the small bell again.
Zong!
The sound waves spread out as the beast spirits opened their mouths, spewing colorful light projectiles.
Though each projectile wasn't particularly powerful, their combined force made it impossible for anyone below the Yuanxian stage to withstand them. Lin Xuan dodged swiftly and shot several sword qi from his sleeves.
Two low-grade beast spirits fell, but soon he was surrounded by fierce beast spirits, barely managing to escape with difficulty.
Despite the danger, Lin Xuan couldn't afford any more entanglements and had to dodge and fight.
Moon's situation was even worse. Facing so many ghostly creatures, she soon panted heavily.
The zombies fought bravely but were quickly overwhelmed by the hundreds of low-grade beast spirits, their bodies covered in wounds.
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as he cast a spell with his hands. Boom!
Explosive sounds echoed as Lin Xuan chose to let the zombies self-destruct for mutual destruction. The power was significant, and many nearby beast spirits were caught up in it.
"Hmph, mere last-ditch efforts."
Momo paid no mind. His ancestor's notes clearly stated that this ghostly spirit array was formidable; any cultivator below Yuanxian stage would surely die.
With greedy eyes on the treasures within the light barrier, he quickly realized they were all his. Lin Xuan's displayed abilities also made him relieved—this boy had hidden strength. Even a Condensation Stage mid-stage opponent might be uncertain of victory against him.
But Momo was already doomed!
Lin Xuan continuously waved his hands as the divine flame bead emitted intense light. The golden flames condensed into a giant net, trapping several beast spirits. But before he could celebrate, a two-headed flying snake appeared and tore open the fire net with its horn.
Two-Headed Flying Snake!
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. This was a three-stage beast spirit, even in soul form, its strength rivaled that of its living counterpart.
But this was only the beginning. More terrifying monsters emerged, their powerful presence filling the air. Lin Xuan's divine sense revealed four formidable ghostly creatures behind him.
A huge black bear with two heads stood to his left, while a small bird the size of a palm spread its wings, releasing endless cold that froze golden flames. To his right was a grotesque spider with a ghostly face, as large as a grindstone—just looking at it made one's body numb.
All were three-stage beast spirits equivalent to Condensation Stage experts.
Lin Xuan felt a bitter taste in his mouth. Even without considering the other beast spirits, these four terrifying creatures posed an insurmountable challenge for him.
If only he had enough earth-grade spirit talismans, they might have fought. But his storage bag contained only some human-grade ones, barely able to buy time.
Lin Xuan cursed inwardly but maintained a calm expression. Fear was useless; the priority was to think of how to defeat this powerful enemy and escape from danger.
"Quick!"
Lin Xuan manipulated the divine flame bead, initiating an attack first.
The small room filled with colorful beams as spiritual energy oscillated, interspersed with ghostly roars. The battle reached its peak intensity.
After a moment,
"Master, what should we do?"
Looking at the black beast spirits surrounding her, Lin Yue'er's eyes showed a hint of fear.
