lín xuān lái dào le cáng bǎo shì wài 。
林轩来到了藏宝室外。
Lin Xuan arrived at the treasure room.
kàn zhuó yǎn qián de líng lóng bǎo tǎ ， lín xuān bìng méi yǒu mǎ shàng jìn rù ， fǎn ér mǎn liǎn de chí yí zhī sè 。
看着眼前的玲珑宝塔，林轩并没有马上进入，反而满脸的迟疑之色。
Looking at the exquisite玲珑宝塔 in front of him, Lin Xuan didn't immediately enter. Instead, he looked doubtful and hesitant.
shuō qǐ lái ， zì jǐ cǐ xíng de shōu huò ， yǐ jīng dà dà chāo chū yù qī le ， suī rán shàng méi yǒu dé dào yōu míng hán tiě ， kě nà xiē gǔ bǎo yǔ liàn qì cái liào ， tóng yàng shì zhēn guì yǐ jí 。
说起来，自己此行的收获，已经大大超出预期了，虽然尚没有得到幽冥寒铁，可那些古宝与炼器材料，同样是珍贵以极。
To be honest, his收获 had already far exceeded expectations. Although he hadn't obtained the幽冥寒铁, those ancient treasures and alchemical materials were equally precious.
nán dào cáng bǎo shì lǐ hái yǒu gèng xī yǒu de dōng xī ， lín xuān duì cǐ biǎo shì huái yí ， shuō bù dìng gēn běn jiù shì yī shè hǎo de xiàn jǐng ér yǐ 。
难道藏宝室里还有更稀有的东西，林轩对此表示怀疑，说不定根本就是一设好的陷阱而已。
Could there be even rarer items inside the treasure room? Lin Xuan was skeptical, suspecting it might just be a trap set up by someone.
lín xuān yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， piàn kè hòu ， yí gè zhǔ yì fú xiàn zài le nǎo hǎi lǐ 。
林轩以手抚额，片刻后，一个主意浮现在了脑海里。
He ran his hand through his hair in thought before an idea suddenly struck him. A black aura flashed around him, making him look eerie as he tapped his storage bracelet on his waist. An eerie green-haired monster appeared before his eyes.
shēn shàng hēi máng yī shǎn ， zhěng gè rén biàn dé guǐ yì le qǐ lái ， rán hòu lín xuān zài yāo jiān de líng shòu dài shàng yī pāi ， yī jù hún shēn cháng mǎn lǜ máo guài wù chū xiàn zài le yǎn qián 。
身上黑芒一闪，整个人变得诡异了起来，然后林轩在腰间的灵兽袋上一拍，一具浑身长满绿毛怪物出现在了眼前。
This was the last zombie Lin Xuan had cultivated. He would send it inside to scout out the area.
zhè shì lín xuān jì liàn chū lái de zuì hòu yī jù xíng shī le ， xiān ràng rù nèi qù dǎ tàn dǎ tàn 。
这是林轩祭炼出来的最后一具行尸了，先让入内去打探打探。
The zombie immediately transformed into a dark wind and flew into the玲珑宝塔. Using the power of 天魔鬼尸术, Lin Xuan could see everything the zombie saw in his mind.
nà jiāng shī jiē dào lín xuān de mìng lìng ， lì kè háo bù yóu yù de huà wèi yī dào yīn fēng ， fēi rù le líng lóng bǎo tǎ ， ér jiè zhù tiān mó guǐ shī shù de shén tōng ， lín xuān yě kě yǐ jiāng xíng shī suǒ jiàn de jǐng xiàng ， yī yī yìng rù dào nǎo hǎi zhōng 。
那僵尸接到林轩的命令，立刻毫不犹豫的化为一道阴风，飞入了玲珑宝塔，而借助天魔鬼尸术的神通，林轩也可以将行尸所见的景象，一一映入到脑海中。
The tower was about seven or eight zhang high but only had three levels.
bǎo tǎ yuē yǒu qī bā zhàng gāo ， què jǐn jǐn fēn wéi sān céng 。
宝塔约有七八丈高，却仅仅分为三层。
No one knew what material it was made from, but inside, it shimmered and sparkled, drawing the eye. However, after searching the first level thoroughly, Lin Xuan found nothing of value.
cǐ bǎo bù zhī shì yòng shén me cái liào liàn zhì ér chéng ， lǐ miàn jīng yíng shǎn shuò ， shí fēn xī yǐn rén de yǎn qiú ， rán ér lín xuān kòng zhì xíng shī zài yī céng zhǎo le yī quān ， què shén me yě méi yǒu xiàn 。
此宝不知是用什么材料炼制而成，里面晶莹闪烁，十分吸引人的眼球，然而林轩控制行尸在一层找了一圈，却什么也没有现。
The zombie transformed back into a dark wind and flew to the second level. Again, there was no sign of anything useful.
jiāng shī zài cì huà wèi yīn fēng ， fēi dào le dì èr céng shàng 。
僵尸再次化为阴风，飞到了第二层上。
Lin Xuan frowned but didn't give up. He continued using various techniques to collect treasures. After two incense sticks' time, he had tried all the secret arts mentioned in 九天玄功 and 玄魔**.
jì rán shì tǎ 。 zì rán shì shàng xiǎo xià dà 。 èr céng dì miàn jī 。 jǐn yǒu yī céng dì sān fēn zhī èr zuǒ yòu 。 rán ér zài nà dì shàng 。 què yǒu zhe yī céng qīng sè dì guāng zhào 。 lǐ miàn bǎi mǎn le gǔ bǎo yǔ cái liào 。 jiù rú tóng lín xuān gāng cái suǒ qù dì nà jiān shí shì yī yàng 。
既然是塔。自然是上小下大。二层地面积。仅有一层地三分之二左右。然而在那地上。却有着一层青色地光罩。里面摆满了古宝与材料。就如同林轩刚才所去地那间石室一样。
But still, nothing worked.
nà xiē gǔ bǎo líng qì bī rén 。 kàn qǐ lái hái yào gèng jiā zhēn guì sān fēn 。 rán ér lín xuān liǎn shàng què lù chū ruò yǒu suǒ sī dì biǎo qíng 。
那些古宝灵气逼人。看起来还要更加珍贵三分。然而林轩脸上却露出若有所思地表情。
His expression darkened as he took out an empty storage bag from his waist. He tossed it into the air and cast a spell on it. The storage bag grew larger, and a streak of rainbow light flew out to circle around the玲珑宝塔.
shāo yī chí yí 。 yòng shén shí chū mìng lìng 。 nà xíng shī shēn chū lì zhuǎ 。 hěn hěn dì xiàng hù zhào zhuā xià 。
稍一迟疑。用神识出命令。那行尸伸出利爪。狠狠地向护罩抓下。
This time, something finally happened. The tower began to shrink and change shape. Lin Xuan was overjoyed and fully activated his spell.
bō 。 hěn qīng yì jiù pò jìn ér rù 。 rán ér xià yī kè 。 hù zhào zhōng dì gǔ bǎo yǔ cái liào dōu xiāo shī le 。 qǔ ér dài zhī dì shì xióng xióng dì liè huǒ 。
啵。很轻易就破禁而入。然而下一刻。护罩中地古宝与材料都消失了。取而代之地是熊熊地烈火。
After a moment,
hōng dì yī xià 。 yóu jiāng shī dì lì zhǎo xiàng shàng màn yán 。 jī hū shì zhǎ yǎn zhī jiān 。 jiù jiāng shāo chéng le yí gè huǒ tuán 。
轰地一下。由僵尸地利爪向上蔓延。几乎是眨眼之间。就将烧成了一个火团。
"Whoosh," the tower shrank to half a foot in length and was sucked into the storage bag.
lín xuān lián máng jiāng shén shí shōu le huí lái 。
林轩连忙将神识收了回来。
Lin Xuan's face lit up with excitement as he quickly tied the bag shut. This ancient treasure was invaluable, but for now, it would have to be studied later.
tǔ chū yī kǒu zhuó qì ， hǎo xiǎn ！
吐出一口浊气，好险！
He left the ancient cultivator's den and pulled out an玉筒简 from his storage bag. He sank his consciousness into it; the scroll contained a map of the仙矿, which Lin Xuan had secretly copied from Mo Mang not long ago.
zhè suǒ wèi dì zàng bǎo shì 。 guǒ rán shì yī jīng xīn bù zhì de xiàn jǐng ， nà xiē gǔ bǎo yǔ cái liào ， quán dōu shì gāo míng de zhàng yǎn fǎ ér yǐ 。
这所谓地藏宝室。果然是一精心布置的陷阱，那些古宝与材料，全都是高明的障眼法而已。
Though he didn't understand the text written by the妖族, the illustrations were detailed. Following the markings on the scroll, Lin Xuan quickly found another path.
xīn zhōng zǎo yǐ liào dào le jǐ fēn ， gù ér lín xuān liǎn shàng bìng méi yǒu chà yì de biǎo qíng 。
心中早已料到了几分，故而林轩脸上并没有诧异的表情。
He extended his consciousness to carefully explore the surroundings. He wouldn't want to find valuable treasures only to run into danger on his way back due to carelessness.
lín xuān mò rán le yī xià ， rán hòu chóng xīn fàng chū shén shí dǎ liàng yǎn qián de líng lóng bǎo tǎ ， jì rán míng zhī yǒu guǐ ， lín xuān dāng rán bú huì shàng dàng shòu piàn ， bù guò cǐ tǎ běn shēn yě shì yī jiàn gǔ bǎo ， lín xuān zì rán yào jiāng shōu qǔ guò lái 。
林轩默然了一下，然后重新放出神识打量眼前的玲珑宝塔，既然明知有鬼，林轩当然不会上当受骗，不过此塔本身也是一件古宝，林轩自然要将收取过来。
After half an hour,
shuāng shǒu qiā jué 。 lín xuān shǒu yī huī ， sī sī jiàn qì jī shè chū lái ， mò rù le nà bǎo tǎ lǐ miàn 。 rán ér què yì diǎn dòng jìng yě méi yǒu 。
双手掐诀。林轩手一挥，丝丝剑气激射出来，没入了那宝塔里面。然而却一点动静也没有。
Lin Xuan looked at the scene before him in silence. He compared it with the treasure map and confirmed he hadn't gone wrong. This was the end of the仙矿.
lín xuān zhòu le zhòu méi ， què yě bìng bù qì něi ， jì xù shī zhǎn qí tā de shōu qǔ bǎo wù dì fǎ jué ， duǎn duǎn liǎng zhù xiāng de shí jiān ， jiù jiāng jiǔ tiān xuán gōng yǔ xuán mó ** zhōng suǒ jiè shào de gè zhǒng mì shù dōu yòng le yī biàn 。
林轩皱了皱眉，却也并不气馁，继续施展其他的收取宝物地法诀，短短两柱香的时间，就将九天玄功与玄魔**中所介绍的各种秘术都用了一遍。
But...
kě hái shì méi yǒu xiào guǒ 。
可还是没有效果。
A sea of flames stretched out before him.
lín xuān liǎn sè yī chén ， cóng yāo jiān qǔ chū yí gè kōng de chǔ wù dài ， wàng kōng zhōng yī shuǎi ， yī dào fǎ jué dǎ zài shàng miàn 。
林轩脸色一沉，从腰间取出一个空的储物袋，望空中一甩，一道法诀打在上面。
Lin Xuan tried to use his consciousness to probe, but it was immediately repelled.
chǔ wù dài lì kè biàn dà ， bìng cóng dài kǒu zhī zhōng 。 fēi chū yī dào cǎi xiá ， juǎn xiàng líng lóng bǎo tǎ 。
储物袋立刻变大，并从袋口之中。飞出一道彩霞，卷向玲珑宝塔。
Clearly, there was no way forward. Still, Lin Xuan suspected this might be an illusion set up by ancient cultivators. But when he stepped closer, he felt the intense heat.
zhè yī cì zhōng yú yǒu le xiào guǒ ， bǎo tǎ kāi shǐ màn màn de shōu suō biàn huà ， lín xuān xīn zhōng dà xǐ ， quán lì cuī dòng fǎ jué 。
这一次终于有了效果，宝塔开始慢慢的收缩变化，林轩心中大喜，全力催动法诀。
He frowned but wouldn't risk it easily. Since he couldn't find a way out for now, he didn't need to rush; he could always cultivate and wait.
piàn kè hòu 。
片刻后。
A day passed.
sōu ， bǎo tǎ zhōng yú suō xiǎo dào bàn chǐ lái zhǎng ， bèi xī rù jìn le chǔ wù dài 。
嗖，宝塔终于缩小到半尺来长，被吸入进了储物袋。
Two days passed.
lín xuān liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī xīng fèn de guāng máng ， lián máng jiāng dài kǒu jì jǐn ， zhè jiàn gǔ bǎo fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。 bù guò zì jǐ zàn shí hái méi yǒu zhǎng wò de yòng tú ， zhǐ néng yǐ hòu màn màn yán jiū 。
林轩脸上闪过一丝兴奋的光芒，连忙将袋口系紧，这件古宝非同小可。不过自己暂时还没有掌握的用途，只能以后慢慢研究。
Three months flew by...
suí hòu lín xuān bù zài tíng liú ， chū le gǔ xiū shì de dòng fǔ ， shǒu zhǎng yī fān ， cóng chǔ wù dài zhōng qǔ chū yí gè yù tǒng jiǎn 。
随后林轩不再停留，出了古修士的洞府，手掌一翻，从储物袋中取出一个玉筒简。
One day, Lin Xuan was sitting cross-legged with an玉筒简 in his hand when he suddenly looked up and leaped to his feet.
jiāng shén shí chén rù qí zhōng ， yù tǒng lǐ kè zhe de shì xiān kuàng dì dì tú ， bù jiǔ qián lín xuān qiāo qiāo cóng mò mǎng nǎ lǐ fù yìn chū lái 。
将神识沉入其中，玉筒里刻着的是仙矿地地图，不久前林轩悄悄从莫莽哪里复印出来。
During this time, he had been studying the璇玑心得. Although the array arts were vast and profound, it took more than a hundred days for him to make any significant progress. However, while reading the book, he stumbled upon some descriptions of ancient arrays.
suī rán lín xuān bù dǒng shàng miàn yāo zú de wén zì ， hǎo zài tú huà dǎo shì shí fēn xiáng xì ， lín xuān zhào zhe shàng miàn de biāo shì 。 hěn kuài yòu zhǎo dào le yī tiáo lù 。
虽然林轩不懂上面妖族的文字，好在图画倒是十分详细，林轩照着上面的标示。很快又找到了一条路。
A million years ago was when cultivators thrived. Back then, their cultivation techniques, treasures, and array formations were far superior to those of today.
jiāng shén shí quán lì fàng chū 。 xiǎo xīn tàn chá zhe zhōu wéi dì jǐng wù ， lín xuān kě bù xī wàng bǎo wù dōu dào shǒu le 。 huí qù de tú zhōng què yīn wèi dà yì ér yù jiàn wēi xiǎn 。
将神识全力放出。小心探查着周围地景物，林轩可不希望宝物都到手了。回去的途中却因为大意而遇见危险。
The Xuan Ji Scattered Man was a genius in array arts. He had systematically organized various arrays from the current cultivation world and also delved into ancient array formations.
bàn gè shí chén yǐ hòu 。
半个时辰以后。
All these findings were recorded in the璇玑心得.
lín xuān kàn zhuó yǎn qián de jǐng zhì ， mò mò wú yǔ 。
林轩看着眼前的景致，默默无语。
In his book, there was an ancient array formation that bore some resemblance to the flames before him.
yòu ná chū cáng bǎo tú bǐ duì le yī fān ， bìng méi yǒu zǒu cuò ， zhè lǐ yǐ shì xiān kuàng de jìn tóu le 。
又拿出藏宝图比对了一番，并没有走错，这里已是仙矿的尽头了。
Excited by this discovery, Lin Xuan focused on studying it. Although his knowledge of array arts was shallow, he spent months trying to understand and eventually documented a method for breaking through the barrier.
rán ér yǎn qián ……
然而眼前……
Now, with everything prepared, he was ready to test it out. He couldn't stay in this abandoned mine forever.
yī piàn huǒ hǎi 。
一片火海。
Looking at the flames before him, Lin Xuan raised his hand and shot five green sword energies. Under his consciousness's control, they coalesced into a small green sphere.
lín xuān xiǎng yòng shén shí tàn chá yī xià ， què lì kè bèi dàn le huí lái 。
林轩想用神识探查一下，却立刻被弹了回来。
Lin Xuan held his left hand up to float the green sphere in mid-air. Then he activated the阴阳诀, generating ghostly dark energy. He shook his shoulder, releasing several black tendrils that also formed a black light ball, which he held with his right hand.
zhè lǐ míng míng yǐ jīng méi yǒu lù ， dāng rán ， lín xuān yě huái yí guò zhè shì gǔ xiū shì suǒ shuǎ de huā zhāo ， zhàng yǎn fǎ ， rán ér dāng tā shàng qián jǐ bù ， què shí gǎn dào le kě pà de yán rè 。
这里明明已经没有路，当然，林轩也怀疑过这是古修士所耍的花招，障眼法，然而当他上前几步，确实感到了可怕的炎热。
A serious expression appeared on Lin Xuan's face as he carefully brought both hands together.
lín xuān zhòu le zhòu méi ， tā zì rán bú huì qīng yì shè xiǎn ， jì rán yī shí bàn huì er zhǎo bú dào chū lù ， yě bù yòng zháo jí ， fǎn zhèng xiū zhēn kě yǐ bì gǔ ， màn màn yán jiū yě bù chí 。
林轩皱了皱眉，他自然不会轻易涉险，既然一时半会儿找不到出路，也不用着急，反正修真可以辟谷，慢慢研究也不迟。
The two spheres of different colors touched and began to merge slowly. It took nearly three incense sticks for the process to complete. Sweat dripped from Lin Xuan's forehead until a green-black sphere finally appeared in his palm.
yī tiān guò qù le 。
一天过去了。
Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. To break through this ancient barrier, one needed either an元婴期 cultivator or a collaboration between a cultivator and a cultivator of darkness, both needing at least the strength to condense their essence.
liǎng tiān guò qù le 。
两天过去了。
He fused the light spheres!
sān gè yuè de shí jiān zhuǎn shùn jí shì ……
三个月的时间转瞬即逝……
However, according to the Xuan Ji Scattered Man, this method was theoretically possible but practically impossible. The reason was that dark and light energies repelled each other, and even if they were equal in quantity, it would be nearly impossible for a couple to achieve such harmony. In the history of cultivation, there had never been a case of a cultivator and a cultivator of darkness forming a couple.
zhè rì ， zhèng pán xī zuò zài dì shàng ， shǒu pěng zhe yí gè yù tǒng jiǎn de lín xuān tū rán tái qǐ le tóu lái ， yī yuè ér qǐ 。
这日，正盘膝坐在地上，手捧着一个玉筒简的林轩突然抬起了头来，一跃而起。
Thus, Xuan Ji Scattered Man joked that this was merely his whimsical idea.
zhè duàn shí jiān yǐ lái ， tā yì zhí zài yán jiū 《 xuán jī xīn dé 》， dāng rán ， zhèn fǎ yī dào ， bó dà jīng shēn ， qū qū bú dào bǎi yú tiān de shí jiān ， bié shuō xiǎo chéng ， lián liǎo jiě dōu hěn nán ， bù guò lín xuān zài fān yuè zhè běn zhèn fǎ qí shū dì shí hòu ， què ǒu rán kàn dào le yī xiē guān yú yuǎn gǔ shí qī zhèn fǎ de jiè shào 。
这段时间以来，他一直在研究《璇玑心得》，当然，阵法一道，博大精深，区区不到百余天的时间，别说小成，连了解都很难，不过林轩在翻阅这本阵法奇书地时候，却偶然看到了一些关于远古时期阵法的介绍。
But while others couldn't do it, Lin Xuan could. Although dark and light energies repelled each other, with the right control, they could still merge. The main challenge lay in achieving perfect harmony between two people. However, since he knew the阴阳诀, he could use both types of energy simultaneously, making this task less daunting.
jù jīn bǎi wàn nián qián ， nà cái shì xiū xiān de huáng jīn shí dài ， nà shí hòu de gǔ xiū shì ， bù lùn gōng fǎ ， bǎo wù hái shì zhèn fǎ jìn zhì ， zào yì dōu yuǎn fēi xiàn zài kě bǐ 。
距今百万年前，那才是修仙的黄金时代，那时候的古修士，不论功法，宝物还是阵法禁制，造诣都远非现在可比。
Of course, it wasn't without difficulty. If controlled poorly, the energies would explode. While powerful, it wouldn't help if the light spheres were trapped by the barrier.
ér zhè wèi xuán jī sàn rén ， zài zhèn fǎ fāng miàn ， nǎi shì yī wèi qí cái ， bù jǐn gēn jù píng shēng suǒ xué ， duì yú xiàn zài xiū zhēn jiè de gè zhǒng zhèn fǎ ， zuò le yí gè xì tǒng de zhěng lǐ ， ér qiě duì yú yuǎn gǔ shí qī de zhèn fǎ jìn zhì ， yě yǒu bù shǎo yán jiū shè liè 。
而这位璇玑散人，在阵法方面，乃是一位奇才，不仅根据平生所学，对于现在修真界的各种阵法，做了一个系统的整理，而且对于远古时期的阵法禁制，也有不少研究涉猎。
Fortunately, Lin Xuan was bold and meticulous, with a consciousness far stronger than his peers. After much effort, he successfully turned theory into reality.
zhè xiē chéng guǒ ， quán dōu bèi tā xiě rù le 《 xuán jī xīn dé 》。
这些成果，全都被他写入了《璇玑心得》。
Lin Xuan looked at the glowing sphere in his hand, waved his sleeves to send it flying, and watched as it disappeared into the flames.
ér zài tā suǒ zhù de zhè běn qí shū lǐ ， jiù tí dào le yī zhǒng yuǎn gǔ shí qī de jìn zhì ， yǔ yǎn qián dì huǒ hǎi pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì 。
而在他所著的这本奇书里，就提到了一种远古时期的禁制，与眼前地火海颇有几分相似。
A dull sound reached his ears as the flames violently shook. Lin Xuan quickly activated 九天灵盾.
lín xuān dà xǐ zhī xià ， zì rán shì qián xīn yán jiū le qǐ lái ， rán ér yóu yú tā zhèn fǎ de zhī shí tài qiǎn ， huā le shù yuè de shí guāng ， yī rán shì hú lún tūn zǎo ， hǎo zài jiù suàn méi yǒu kàn dǒng zhè ge zhèn fǎ de qí miào ， zài hòu miàn yě xiáng xì de jì zǎi le de pò jiě zhī dào 。
林轩大喜之下，自然是潜心研究了起来，然而由于他阵法的知识太浅，花了数月的时光，依然是囫囵吞枣，好在就算没有看懂这个阵法的奇妙，在后面也详细的记载了的破解之道。
After a while, the flames calmed down.
lín xuān yǐ jīng yǎn liàn chéng shú 。 xiàn zài jiù yào shì yī shì le ， bì jìng tā bù kě néng yǒng yuǎn dài zài zhè fèi qì de xiān kuàng lǐ miàn 。
林轩已经演练成熟。现在就要试一试了，毕竟他不可能永远待在这废弃的仙矿里面。
Lin Xuan was surprised. Could it be that the Xuan Ji Scattered Man's theory was incorrect? This method couldn't break through the ancient barrier. That would be troublesome. Just as he thought this, the calm flames suddenly shook violently, and a dense sound like popping beans echoed from within.
kàn zhuó yǎn qián dì huǒ hǎi ， lín xuān shǒu yī tái ， wǔ dào qīng sè de jiàn qì jī shè chū lái ， rán hòu zài shén shí dì cāo kòng xià ， jù hé chéng le yí gè quán tou dà xiǎo dì qīng sè yuán qiú 。
看着眼前地火海，林轩手一抬，五道青色的剑气激射出来，然后在神识地操控下，聚合成了一个拳头大小地青色圆球。
At first small, but soon grew louder until the entire cave trembled as if it might collapse at any moment. However, Lin Xuan was not alarmed; his eyes never left the scene before him.
lín xuān zuǒ shǒu xū tuō 。 ràng piāo fú zài zhǎng xīn zhī zhōng 。
林轩左手虚托。让漂浮在掌心之中。
After about an hour, the sounds subsided, and the flames vanished, revealing a purple mist in front of him.
rán hòu yùn zhuàn yīn yáng jué ， zhuǎn huà chū guǐ xiū de yīn líng lì lái ， jiān tóu yī dǒu ， shù dào hēi qì cóng shēn tǐ lǐ piāo chū ， tóng yàng jù hé chéng yí gè hēi sè dì guāng qiú ， xū tuō zài yòu zhǎng zhī shàng 。
然后运转阴阳诀，转化出鬼修的阴灵力来，肩头一抖，数道黑气从身体里飘出，同样聚合成一个黑色地光球，虚托在右掌之上。
Lin Xuan smiled. This familiar scene told him that this must be an ancient teleportation array.
lín xuān dì liǎn shàng ， lù chū yī sī zhèng zhòng de biǎo qíng ， xiǎo xīn yì yì de tái qǐ liǎng shǒu ， xiàng zhe zhōng jiān kào lǒng 。
林轩地脸上，露出一丝郑重的表情，小心翼翼的抬起两手，向着中间靠拢。
Soon, the purple mist coalesced into a one-meter-wide vortex. Lin Xuan's body was enveloped in green light as he flew into it.
yī qīng yī hēi liǎng gè guāng qiú jiē chù le 。 rán hòu lín xuān cāo zòng men kāi shǐ róng hé ， zhè ge guò chéng hěn màn ， zú zú huā jìn sān zhù xiāng de shí jiān 。 lín xuān de é tóu shàng bù mǎn le xì mì de hàn dī ， zhōng yú ， yí gè tóng yàng dà xiǎo ， què fàn zhe qīng hēi liǎng sè yì máng de guāng qiú chū xiàn zài le shǒu zhǎng shàng 。
一青一黑两个光球接触了。然后林轩操纵们开始融合，这个过程很慢，足足花近三炷香的时间。林轩的额头上布满了细密的汗滴，终于，一个同样大小，却泛着青黑两色异芒的光球出现在了手掌上。
A dizzying sensation washed over him, and his vision turned white. Fortunately, it didn't last long. Soon, the scene before him became clear.
lín xuān yě sōng le kǒu qì ， yào xiǎng pò chú zhè gǔ xiū shì de jìn zhì ， yào me dá dào yuán yīng qī xiū shì de jìng jiè ， píng jiè qiáng hèng dì shí lì ， zì rán kě yǐ ， yào me jiù shì ràng yí gè xiū zhēn yǔ yí gè xiū mó hé zuò 。 dāng rán liǎng rén zhì shǎo yě yào yǒu níng dān yǐ shàng de xiū wèi 。
林轩也松了口气，要想破除这古修士的禁制，要么达到元婴期修士的境界，凭借强横地实力，自然可以，要么就是让一个修真与一个修魔合作。当然两人至少也要有凝丹以上的修为。
Lin Xuan scanned with his consciousness; he hadn't been injured. Then he turned to examine his surroundings.
Lin Xuan arrived at the treasure room.
Looking at the exquisite玲珑宝塔 in front of him, Lin Xuan didn't immediately enter. Instead, he looked doubtful and hesitant.
To be honest, his收获 had already far exceeded expectations. Although he hadn't obtained the幽冥寒铁, those ancient treasures and alchemical materials were equally precious.
Could there be even rarer items inside the treasure room? Lin Xuan was skeptical, suspecting it might just be a trap set up by someone.
He ran his hand through his hair in thought before an idea suddenly struck him. A black aura flashed around him, making him look eerie as he tapped his storage bracelet on his waist. An eerie green-haired monster appeared before his eyes.
This was the last zombie Lin Xuan had cultivated. He would send it inside to scout out the area.
The zombie immediately transformed into a dark wind and flew into the玲珑宝塔. Using the power of 天魔鬼尸术, Lin Xuan could see everything the zombie saw in his mind.
The tower was about seven or eight zhang high but only had three levels.
No one knew what material it was made from, but inside, it shimmered and sparkled, drawing the eye. However, after searching the first level thoroughly, Lin Xuan found nothing of value.
The zombie transformed back into a dark wind and flew to the second level. Again, there was no sign of anything useful.
Lin Xuan frowned but didn't give up. He continued using various techniques to collect treasures. After two incense sticks' time, he had tried all the secret arts mentioned in 九天玄功 and 玄魔**.
But still, nothing worked.
His expression darkened as he took out an empty storage bag from his waist. He tossed it into the air and cast a spell on it. The storage bag grew larger, and a streak of rainbow light flew out to circle around the玲珑宝塔.
This time, something finally happened. The tower began to shrink and change shape. Lin Xuan was overjoyed and fully activated his spell.
After a moment,
"Whoosh," the tower shrank to half a foot in length and was sucked into the storage bag.
Lin Xuan's face lit up with excitement as he quickly tied the bag shut. This ancient treasure was invaluable, but for now, it would have to be studied later.
He left the ancient cultivator's den and pulled out an玉筒简 from his storage bag. He sank his consciousness into it; the scroll contained a map of the仙矿, which Lin Xuan had secretly copied from Mo Mang not long ago.
Though he didn't understand the text written by the妖族, the illustrations were detailed. Following the markings on the scroll, Lin Xuan quickly found another path.
He extended his consciousness to carefully explore the surroundings. He wouldn't want to find valuable treasures only to run into danger on his way back due to carelessness.
After half an hour,
Lin Xuan looked at the scene before him in silence. He compared it with the treasure map and confirmed he hadn't gone wrong. This was the end of the仙矿.
But...
A sea of flames stretched out before him.
Lin Xuan tried to use his consciousness to probe, but it was immediately repelled.
Clearly, there was no way forward. Still, Lin Xuan suspected this might be an illusion set up by ancient cultivators. But when he stepped closer, he felt the intense heat.
He frowned but wouldn't risk it easily. Since he couldn't find a way out for now, he didn't need to rush; he could always cultivate and wait.
A day passed.
Two days passed.
Three months flew by...
One day, Lin Xuan was sitting cross-legged with an玉筒简 in his hand when he suddenly looked up and leaped to his feet.
During this time, he had been studying the璇玑心得. Although the array arts were vast and profound, it took more than a hundred days for him to make any significant progress. However, while reading the book, he stumbled upon some descriptions of ancient arrays.
A million years ago was when cultivators thrived. Back then, their cultivation techniques, treasures, and array formations were far superior to those of today.
The Xuan Ji Scattered Man was a genius in array arts. He had systematically organized various arrays from the current cultivation world and also delved into ancient array formations.
All these findings were recorded in the璇玑心得.
In his book, there was an ancient array formation that bore some resemblance to the flames before him.
Excited by this discovery, Lin Xuan focused on studying it. Although his knowledge of array arts was shallow, he spent months trying to understand and eventually documented a method for breaking through the barrier.
Now, with everything prepared, he was ready to test it out. He couldn't stay in this abandoned mine forever.
Looking at the flames before him, Lin Xuan raised his hand and shot five green sword energies. Under his consciousness's control, they coalesced into a small green sphere.
Lin Xuan held his left hand up to float the green sphere in mid-air. Then he activated the阴阳诀, generating ghostly dark energy. He shook his shoulder, releasing several black tendrils that also formed a black light ball, which he held with his right hand.
A serious expression appeared on Lin Xuan's face as he carefully brought both hands together.
The two spheres of different colors touched and began to merge slowly. It took nearly three incense sticks for the process to complete. Sweat dripped from Lin Xuan's forehead until a green-black sphere finally appeared in his palm.
Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. To break through this ancient barrier, one needed either an元婴期 cultivator or a collaboration between a cultivator and a cultivator of darkness, both needing at least the strength to condense their essence.
He fused the light spheres!
However, according to the Xuan Ji Scattered Man, this method was theoretically possible but practically impossible. The reason was that dark and light energies repelled each other, and even if they were equal in quantity, it would be nearly impossible for a couple to achieve such harmony. In the history of cultivation, there had never been a case of a cultivator and a cultivator of darkness forming a couple.
Thus, Xuan Ji Scattered Man joked that this was merely his whimsical idea.
But while others couldn't do it, Lin Xuan could. Although dark and light energies repelled each other, with the right control, they could still merge. The main challenge lay in achieving perfect harmony between two people. However, since he knew the阴阳诀, he could use both types of energy simultaneously, making this task less daunting.
Of course, it wasn't without difficulty. If controlled poorly, the energies would explode. While powerful, it wouldn't help if the light spheres were trapped by the barrier.
Fortunately, Lin Xuan was bold and meticulous, with a consciousness far stronger than his peers. After much effort, he successfully turned theory into reality.
Lin Xuan looked at the glowing sphere in his hand, waved his sleeves to send it flying, and watched as it disappeared into the flames.
A dull sound reached his ears as the flames violently shook. Lin Xuan quickly activated 九天灵盾.
After a while, the flames calmed down.
Lin Xuan was surprised. Could it be that the Xuan Ji Scattered Man's theory was incorrect? This method couldn't break through the ancient barrier. That would be troublesome. Just as he thought this, the calm flames suddenly shook violently, and a dense sound like popping beans echoed from within.
At first small, but soon grew louder until the entire cave trembled as if it might collapse at any moment. However, Lin Xuan was not alarmed; his eyes never left the scene before him.
After about an hour, the sounds subsided, and the flames vanished, revealing a purple mist in front of him.
Lin Xuan smiled. This familiar scene told him that this must be an ancient teleportation array.
Soon, the purple mist coalesced into a one-meter-wide vortex. Lin Xuan's body was enveloped in green light as he flew into it.
A dizzying sensation washed over him, and his vision turned white. Fortunately, it didn't last long. Soon, the scene before him became clear.
Lin Xuan scanned with his consciousness; he hadn't been injured. Then he turned to examine his surroundings.
