liàn gōng fáng lǐ ， lín xuān pán xī ér zuò 。
练功房里，林轩盘膝而坐。
In the practice room, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged.
rú jīn tā yǐ shì dù jié jí bié de dà néng xiū xiān zhě 。
如今他已是渡劫级别的大能修仙者。
Now he was a cultivator of the Transcending Tribulation realm—a powerhouse whose strength had grown beyond measure. However, there might also be formidable enemies even stronger than before. Therefore, it was necessary to retrain his treasures and secret techniques so that their power could match his current cultivation level.
shí lì yǔ yǐ qián bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ ， dàn yě yǒu kě néng yù jiàn gèng jiā lì hài de qiáng dí 。
实力与以前不可同日而语，但也有可能遇见更加厉害的强敌。
For example, Phantasmal Heavenly Fire!
gù ér fǎ bǎo mì shù dōu yǒu bì yào chóng xīn xiū liàn yī fān ， ràng qí wēi lì yǔ zì jǐ de jìng jiè tóng bù 。
故而法宝秘术都有必要重新修炼一番，让其威力与自己的境界同步。
This was a secret technique he kept in reserve, having achieved countless feats with it. Yet, during the battle against Ice Soul, it had clearly shown some shortcomings.
bǐ rú shuō ， huàn líng tiān huǒ ！
比如说，幻灵天火！
It wasn't because Phantasmal Heavenly Fire was weak; nor did its power increase due to encountering bottlenecks or setbacks. Rather, his time spent advancing to the Transcending Tribulation realm was too short and rushed, leaving no room for enhancing the power of Phantasmal Heavenly Fire.
zuò wèi zì jǐ yā xiāng dǐ de mì shù ， céng lì gōng wú shù ， rán ér zài yǔ bīng pò yī zhàn zhōng ， què yě míng xiǎn liú lù chū le yī xiē bù zú 。
做为自己压箱底的秘术，曾立功无数，然而在与冰魄一战中，却也明显流露出了一些不足。
Indeed, with his strength and essence energy increasing, even without deliberate training, the power of Phantasmal Heavenly Fire would naturally grow from its base. However, this increase wouldn't be significant; after all, it wasn't an ordinary Five Elements technique, requiring Lin Xuan's diligent cultivation to achieve.
zì rán bú shì yīn wèi huàn líng tiān huǒ tài ruò ， yě fēi cǐ shén tōng wēi lì tí shēng ， yù jiàn le píng jǐng huò shì bō zhé ， ér shì zì jǐ jìn jiē dù jié de shí jiān tài duǎn ， tài guò cāng cù ， gēn běn méi yǒu shí jiān tí shēng huàn líng tiān huǒ de wēi lì lái zhe 。
自然不是因为幻灵天火太弱，也非此神通威力提升，遇见了瓶颈或是波折，而是自己进阶渡劫的时间太短，太过仓促，根本没有时间提升幻灵天火的威力来着。
Hard work reaps rewards, and in cultivation, one cannot rely on shortcuts.
chéng rán ， suí zhe zì jǐ shí lì zēng qiáng ， fǎ lì shēn hòu， bù yòng xiū liàn ， huàn líng tiān huǒ de wēi lì ， zài yuán yǒu de jī chǔ shàng ， yě huì zēng jiā yī xiē de 。
诚然，随着自己实力增强，法力深hòu，不用修炼，幻灵天火的威力，在原有的基础上，也会增加一些的。
According to the records in the Black Moon High Priest Technique, if Phantasmal Heavenly Fire were fully cultivated, even a True Immortal would have to retreat. Its power was unparalleled, legendary for its ability to slay immortals.
zhè yì diǎn bù yòng zhì yí ， rán ér zēng jiā de liàng què bú huì tài duō ， bì jìng zhè bú shì pǔ tōng de wǔ xíng fǎ shù ， zì rán xū yào lín xuān nǔ lì xiū xíng cái kě 。
这一点不用质疑，然而增加的量却不会太多，毕竟这不是普通的五行法术，自然需要林轩努力修行才可。
Of course, that was just what the book described; Lin Xuan wasn't sure if it could truly be so powerful. But the mere blueprint was enough to captivate him.
yī fēn gēng yún ， yī fēn shōu huò ， xiū xiān kě shì bàn fēn qǔ qiǎo bù dé 。
一分耕耘，一分收获，修仙可是半分取巧不得。
However, reaching such a level of cultivation with Phantasmal Heavenly Fire was still far beyond his current realm, and he needed to simultaneously refine Yin and Yang energies.
ér gēn jù mò yuè tiān wū jué zhōng de jì zǎi ， huàn líng tiān huǒ ruò shì xiū liàn dào dà chéng de chéng dù ， bié shuō qū qū yī jù bīng pò huà shēn le 。
而根据墨月天巫诀中的记载，幻灵天火若是修炼到大成的程度，别说区区一具冰魄化身了。
But that didn't matter; just as one eats bit by bit, Lin Xuan had Chaos Great Yin Essence at his disposal. Back then, due to his limited realm, he only refined a tiny portion of it before hesitating further. Otherwise, he might have suffered backlash.
jiù suàn shì zhēn xiān ， yě yào tuì bì sān shè ， qí wēi lì zhī dà ， wú yǔ lún bǐ ， nǎi shì chuán shuō zhōng ， kě yǐ shì xiān de fǎ shù 。
就算是真仙，也要退避三舍，其威力之大，无与伦比，乃是传说中，可以弑仙的法术。
Haste makes waste, and this was something Lin Xuan knew well.
dāng rán ， nà zhǐ shì diǎn jí de jì zǎi ， shì fǒu zhēn néng lì hài dào rú cǐ chéng dù ， lín xuān kě bù qīng chǔ ， dàn guāng shì suǒ miáo huì de lán tú ， yǐ zú gòu yòu rén dào jí chù 。
当然，那只是典籍的记载，是否真能厉害到如此程度，林轩可不清楚，但光是所描绘的蓝图，已足够诱人到极处。
Nevertheless, even that small amount of Chaos Great Yin Essence had greatly benefited him. Now, as a Transcending Tribulation cultivator, Lin Xuan estimated that the remaining Chaos Great Yin Essence could be refined successfully.
dāng rán ， yào jiāng huàn líng tiān huǒ xiū liàn dào rú cǐ chéng dù ， lín xuān xiàn zài de jìng jiè ， hái yuǎn yuǎn bù jí ， ér qiě xū yào tóng shí liàn huà yīn yáng èr qì 。
当然，要将幻灵天火修炼到如此程度，林轩现在的境界，还远远不及，而且需要同时炼化阴阳二气。
With his mind made up, Lin Xuan began to act.
bù guò méi guān xì ， fàn yào yī kǒu kǒu chī ， xiū liàn zhī shì yě shì yī yàng de dào lǐ ， lín xuān shǒu zhōng jiù yǒu hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì 。
不过没关系，饭要一口口吃，修炼之事也是一样的道理，林轩手中就有混沌太阴之气。
He waved his sleeve and a葫芦-shaped treasure flew out.
dāng nián ， xiàn chù jìng jiè de yuán gù ， tā zhǐ liàn huà le yī sī ， jiù bù gǎn jì xù ， fǒu zé ， yí gè bù hǎo ， jiù yǒu kě néng bèi fǎn shì lái zhe 。
当年，限亍境界的缘故，他只炼化了一丝，就不敢继续，否则，一个不好，就有可能被反噬来着。
Though it looked of high quality, this was merely a container for storing Chaos Great Yin Essence.
xīn jí chī bù liǎo rè dòu fǔ 。
心急吃不了热豆腐。
Lin Xuan had faced many trials, but as he gazed at the artifact, his expression turned grave.
zhè dào lǐ ， lín xuān yí xiàng xīn zhōng yǒu shù 。
这道理，林轩一向心中有数。
Chaos Great Yin Essence refined into Phantasmal Heavenly Fire would bring immense benefits. However, this substance itself was extremely dangerous; even a minor mistake could lead to irreparable damage. Lin Xuan thus took no chances.
bù guò jiù suàn shì nà yī lǚ hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì ， yě ràng lín xuān huò dé le mò dà de hǎo chù 。
不过就算是那一缕混沌太阴之气，也让林轩获得了莫大的好处。
Fortunately, he had already refined this essence before and, while not an expert, he had some experience. Hence, despite his grave expression, his demeanor remained calm.
rú jīn tā yǐ shì dù jié jí bié de xiū xiān zhě ， lín xuān gū mō zhe ， néng gòu jiāng shèng yú de hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì ， gěi liàn huà diào le 。
如今他已是渡劫级别的修仙者，林轩估摸着，能够将剩余的混沌太阴之气，给炼化掉了。
He believed that as long as he was careful, he would successfully refine the Chaos Great Yin Essence into Phantasmal Heavenly Fire.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān yǐ kāi shǐ le dòng zuò 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩已开始了动作。
Lin Xuan stared at the葫芦, and the technique flowed through his mind. The scene of refining Chaos Great Yin Essence from years ago replayed in his thoughts.
xiù páo yī fú ， yī hú lú xíng zhuàng de bǎo wù fēi lüè ér chū 。
袖袍一拂，一葫芦形状的宝物飞掠而出。
Each moment was crystal clear.
yī kàn jiù pǐn zhì bù sú ， rán ér zhè jǐn jǐn shì yòng lái shèng fàng hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì de qì mǐn bà le 。
一看就品质不俗，然而这仅仅是用来盛放混沌太阴之气的器皿罢了。
The immortal's ability to remember what they saw proved invaluable here.
lín xuān jīng lì dà fēng dà làng wú shù ， rán ér wàng zhe cǐ bǎo ， biǎo qíng què yī xià zi níng zhòng qǐ lái 。
林轩经历大风大浪无数，然而望着此宝，表情却一下子凝重起来。
In a short while, after a cup of tea’s time had passed, Lin Xuan's expression became completely calm.
hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì ， liàn huà rù huàn líng tiān huǒ ， gù shā néng huò dé wú jìn de hǎo chù ， dàn zhè dōng xī běn shēn ， yě shì fēi cháng wēi xiǎn de 。
混沌太阴之气，炼化入幻灵天火，固煞能获得无尽的好处，但这东西本身，也是非常危险的。
He raised his right hand and cast a technique at the treasure before him. The葫芦 trembled, its surface emitting a burst of spiritual light, with faint thunderous sounds echoing in his ears. A thread of Chaos Great Yin Essence emerged from within.
shāo wēi chū yì diǎn chā cuò ， jiù yǒu kě néng wàn jié bù fù ， lín xuān zì rán fēn háo yě bù gǎn dà yì le 。
稍微出一点差错，就有可能万劫不复，林轩自然分毫也不敢大意了。
Lin Xuan’s left hand was not idle either. He flipped his wrist, and Phantasmal Heavenly Fire appeared.
hǎo zài dāng nián yǐ jīng liàn huà guò cǐ wù ， shú mén shú lù bù gǎn shuō ， dàn yě bù yòng mō suǒ ， huò duō huò shǎo zǒng suàn shì yǒu yī xiē xīn dé 。
好在当年已经炼化过此物，熟门熟路不敢说，但也不用摸索，或多或少总算是有一些心得。
The five-colored glass-like flames exuded an aura of mystery.
gù ér lín xuān suī rán biǎo qíng níng zhòng ， dàn shén sè hái shì fēi cháng zhèn dìng de ， tán bù shàng xiōng yǒu chéng zhú ， dàn tā xiāng xìn ， zhǐ yào zì jǐ xiǎo xīn yī xiē ， yí dìng néng gòu shùn lì liàn huà cǐ wù 。
故而林轩虽然表情凝重，但神色还是非常镇定的，谈不上胸有成竹，但他相信，只要自己小心一些，一定能够顺利炼化此物。
Then Lin Xuan shook his hand, causing the flames to change shape in his palm.
lín xuān níng wàng zhuó yǎn qián de hú lú ， nǎo hǎi zhōng fǎ jué què shì liú zhuǎn ér guò ， dāng nián shì rú hé liàn huà hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì de chǎng jǐng ， yòu zài xīn zhōng fú xiàn ér chū 。
林轩凝望着眼前的葫芦，脑海中法诀却是流转而过，当年是如何炼化混沌太阴之气的场景，又在心中浮现而出。
Bright spiritual lights flowed over it, its form continuously transforming.
mǎo yí mù mù ， fēi cháng qīng chǔ 。
冇一幕幕，非常清楚。
Phoenix, Vermilion Bird, Qilin, True Ghost…
xiū xiān zhě guò mù bù wàng de shén tōng ， zài zhè lǐ qǐ dào le jí dà de yòng chǔ 。
修仙者过目不忘的神通，在这里起到了极大的用处。
Each form was vividly lifelike.
hěn kuài ， guò qù le yī zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， lín xuān liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng ， yǐ wán quán zhèn dìng xià lái le 。
很快，过去了一盏茶的功夫，林轩脸上的表情，已完全镇定下来了。
Then a noisy sound reached his ears. This time, the true spirit had nine heads.
suí hòu tā yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yī dào fǎ jué xiàng zhe shēn qián de bǎo wù dǎ le guò qù 。
随后他右手抬起，一道法诀像着身前的宝物打了过去。
Nine-headed bird!
nà hú lú yī chàn ， biǎo miàn líng guāng kuáng shǎn ， yǐn yǐn yǒu fēng léi zhī shēng chuán 【 qǐ háng xiǎo S wū 】 rù ěr duǒ ， suí hòu yī lǚ xiān xì yì cháng de hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì cóng lǐ miàn piāo chū lái le 。
那葫芦一颤，表面灵光狂闪，隐隐有风雷之声传【启航小S屋】入耳朵，随后一缕纤细异常的混沌太阴之气从里面飘出来了。
Lin Xuan consumed its true spirit fire, naturally aligning with this entity on the essence energy level.
lín xuān zuǒ shǒu yě méi yǒu xián zhe 。
林轩左手也没有闲着。
He waved his hands like a butterfly, and the nine-headed bird's eyes revealed a determined expression.
shǒu wàn fān zhuǎn 。
手腕翻转。
It then flapped its wings, spinning in the air before swallowing the thread of Chaos Great Yin Essence into its mouth. The entire action was as fluid as flowing clouds, incredibly graceful.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， huàn líng tiān huǒ fú xiàn ér chū 。
随着他的动作，幻灵天火浮现而出。
Lin Xuan did not slack off either. This was the most critical moment for refining.
wǔ sè liú lí ， chōng mǎn le shén mì de qì xī 。
五色琉璃，充满了神秘的气息。
His hands moved swiftly, and he muttered ancient and obscure incantations from his lips. The nine-headed bird, no bigger than a palm, returned to his chest. Lin Xuan poured his profound essence energy into the firebird.
suí hòu lín xuān shǒu yī dǒu ， què jiàn cǐ huǒ yàn zài qí zhǎng xīn biǎo miàn biàn huàn bù yǐ 。
随后林轩手一抖，却见此火焰在其掌心表面变幻不已。
Drops of sweat formed on his forehead as his hand movements remained incredibly quick. One after another, hand seals shot towards the nine-headed bird.
yī dào dào xuàn mù dì líng guāng liú zhuǎn ér guò ， tā de xíng zhuàng ， yě zài bù tíng de biàn huà zhe 。
一道道炫目的灵光流转而过，它的形状，也在不停的变化着。
"Phew!"
fèng huáng 、 zhū què 、 qí lín ， zhēn guǐ …”
凤凰、朱雀、麒麟，真鬼…”
Three days later, an exhalation sounded in his ears. Lin Xuan was still sitting cross-legged, but he looked much more relaxed.
měi yí gè xíng tài ， dōu xǔ xǔ rú shēng dào jí chù 。
每一个形态，都栩栩如生倒极处。
After three days and nights of hard work, no mistakes had been made; he successfully refined that thread of Chaos Great Yin Essence.
suí hòu ， yī yǒu xiē guā zào de jiào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhè yī cì huàn huà chū lái de zhēn líng què jù yǒu jiǔ gè tóu lú 。
随后，一有些聒噪的叫声传入耳朵，这一次幻化出来的真灵却具有九个头颅。
Thinking back on the process was indeed tiring, but compared to before, it felt much easier. He remembered spending three months refining a hair-thin thread of this essence in the Ice Sea Realm, filled with constant anxiety and fear of making any mistake.
jiǔ tóu niǎo ！
九头鸟！
Times change; the shorter time now required showed how far Lin Xuan had come.
lín xuān tūn shì le tā de zhēn líng zhī huǒ ， zì rán yǔ zhè jiā huo zài líng lì běn yuán shàng zuì wèi qì hé 。
林轩吞噬了它的真灵之火，自然与这家伙在灵力本源上最为契合。
A smile appeared on his face as he stretched out his left hand, and Phantasmal Heavenly Fire landed in his palm.
zhǐ jiàn lín xuān shuāng shǒu rú chuān huā hú dié yì bān huī wǔ ， nà jiǔ tóu niǎo de yǎn zhōng ， jìng hěn nǐ rén huà de lù chū le jué jué zhī sè 。
只见林轩双手如穿花蝴蝶一般挥舞，那九头鸟的眼中，竟很拟人化的露出了决绝之色。
It remained five-colored glass-like, roughly the size of an egg. On the surface, there seemed to be no change.
suí hòu chì bǎng yī shàn ， zài tiān kōng zhōng yí gè huí xuán ， suí hòu jiù jiāng qián miàn bù yuǎn de nà lǚ hùn dùn tài yīn zhī qì ， tūn luò jìn le zuǐ bā lǐ miàn 。
随后翅膀一扇，在天空中一个回旋，随后就将前面不远的那缕混沌太阴之气，吞落进了嘴巴里面。
However, this was only superficial.
zhěng gè dòng zuò rú xíng yún liú shuǐ yì bān ， qīng yíng dào le jí diǎn 。
整个动作如行云流水一般，轻盈到了极点。
Lin Xuan took a deep breath; silver light flickered in his eyes.
ér lín xuān què bù gǎn dài màn 。
而林轩却不敢怠慢。
Heavens Phoenix Divine Eye!
rú jīn zhèng shì liàn huà zuì wèi guān jiàn de yì diǎn 。
如今正是炼化最为关键的一点。
In the depths of Phantasmal Heavenly Fire, some silvery light points appeared.
zhǐ jiàn tā de shuāng shǒu shàng xià fēi wǔ ， zuǐ zhōng yě yǒu huì sè ér gǔ piáo de zhòu yǔ yí gè zì yí gè zì de tǔ chū 。
只见他的双手上下飞舞，嘴中也有晦涩而古朴的咒语一个字一个字的吐出。
Essence energy source!
nà jiǔ tóu niǎo bù guò bā zhǎng dà yī diǎn ， yǐ fēi huí dào le tā de xiōng qián ， ér lín xuān zé jiāng zì jǐ shēn hòu yǐ jí de fǎ lì ， zhù rù jìn huǒ niǎo lǐ miàn 。
那九头鸟不过巴掌大一点，已飞回到了他的胸前，而林轩则将自己深hòu以极的法力，注入进火鸟里面。
When this fundamental power filled the entire Phantasmal Heavenly Fire, it would transform into a technique capable of slaying immortals. Truly refining it to its peak.
tā de é tóu shàng yǐ bù mǎn le dòu dà de hàn dī ， rán ér shuāng shǒu de dòng zuò yī jiù shì xùn jié yǐ jí ， yí gè jiē yí gè de fǎ yìn xiàng zhe jiǔ tóu niǎo fēi chí ér qù 。
他的额头上已布满了豆大的汗滴，然而双手的动作依旧是迅捷以极，一个接一个的法印像着九头鸟飞驰而去。
Though the future was bright, achieving that step required countless trials and tribulations.
“ hū ！”
“呼！”
Lin Xuan sighed, understanding the need for patience.
sān tiān zhī hòu ， yī chū qì shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lín xuān yī jiù shì pán xī ér zuò ， rán ér tā de biǎo qiàn ， què shì qīng sōng le xǔ duō 。
三天之后，一出气声传入耳朵，林轩依旧是盘膝而坐，然而他的表倩，却是轻松了许多。
He then began meditating to rest. After a moment, he regained his energy and continued refining Phantasmal Heavenly Fire.
In the practice room, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged.
Now he was a cultivator of the Transcending Tribulation realm—a powerhouse whose strength had grown beyond measure. However, there might also be formidable enemies even stronger than before. Therefore, it was necessary to retrain his treasures and secret techniques so that their power could match his current cultivation level.
