“ zhè yàng zuò bù hǎo ba ， bì jìng duì fāng shì dí shì yǒu dōu bù qīng chǔ 。”
“这样做不好吧，毕竟对方是敌是友都不清楚。”
"Isn't this a bit risky? After all, we don't know if the other party is friend or foe."
yǔ pī xiū shì xiāng bǐ ， zhōng nián rén míng xiǎn shì yī lǎo chéng chí zhòng zhī tú ， tīng le shī dì de yán yǔ ， méi tou yí zhòu 。
与披修士相比，中年人明显是一老成持重之徒，听了师弟的言语，眉头一皱。
Compared to the robed cultivator, the middle-aged man clearly appeared more mature and prudent. Upon hearing his junior's words, he frowned.
mù yún zōng zuò wèi shī luò de jiè miàn yǒu míng de mó dào dà zōng ， xíng shì de fēng gé ， zì rán bú huì dǎn xiǎo rú shǔ ， dàn cǐ shì shè jí dào yī dù jié jí bié de lǎo guài wù ， nà me jí biàn shì tā ， yě bù dé bù zǐ xì diān liáng yī èr le 。
牧云宗做为失落的界面有名的魔道大宗，行事的风格，自然不会胆小如鼠，但此事涉及到一渡劫级别的老怪物，那么即便是他，也不得不仔细掂量一二了。
The Lost Realm of Drifting Cloud Valley was famous for its powerful demonic sects, so their actions wouldn't be as timid as a mouse. However, this matter involved an old monster at the Transcendation stage, so even he had to carefully consider it.
bì jìng tā men yě shì zhè ge děng jí de cún zài ， dù jié qī lǎo zǔ yǒu duō kě pà ， xīn zhōng yì qīng èr chǔ 。
毕竟他们也是这个等级的存在，渡劫期老祖有多可怕，心中一清二楚。
After all, they were also beings of that level. How terrifying a Transcendation-stage ancestor was, they knew in their hearts.
cóng dé lái de qíng bào fēn xī ， lín xuān míng xiǎn yǔ běn zōng méi yǒu lì hài guān xì ， jì rán rú cǐ ， yǒu shì méi shì ， hé bì qù zhāo rě yī má fán de qiáng dí 。
从得来的情报分析，林轩明显与本宗没有利害关系，既然如此，有事没事，何必去招惹一麻烦的强敌。
Based on the intelligence gathered, Lin Xuan clearly had no interest with this sect. Since that was the case, why bother stirring up trouble by provoking a peer-level cultivator?
zhè yǔ dǎn bù dǎn xiǎo méi yǒu guān xì ， jiù suàn shì xǐ huān zhēng qiáng hào shèng de gǔ mó ， yǒu shì méi shì ， yě bù xiǎng wú duān qù zhāo zāi rě huò 。
这与胆不胆小没有关系，就算是喜欢争强好胜的古魔，有事没事，也不想无端去招灾惹祸。
This wasn't about being timid or not; even if one enjoyed competition and rivalry, they wouldn’t want to invite disaster for no reason.
suǒ yǐ nà zhōng nián rén cái wěi wǎn de quàn shuō 。
所以那中年人才委婉的劝说。
Thus, the middle-aged man gently advised against it.
nà pī xiū shì què xiào qǐ lái le ：“ shī xiōng duō lǜ le ， xiǎo dì zhǐ shì shuō cǐ rén yǒu qù dé jǐn ， dǎ suàn qiāo qiāo gēn shàng qù kàn yī kàn rè nào bà le ， shén me shí hòu shuō le ， yí dìng yào yǔ tā jiāo wù ， zhāo rě tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě ， nǐ dāng xiǎo dì chī bǎo le chēng de ， yǒu nà yàng de xián qíng yì zhì me ？”
那披修士却笑起来了：“师兄多虑了，小弟只是说此人有趣得紧，打算悄悄跟上去看一看热闹罢了，什么时候说了，一定要与他交恶，招惹同阶修仙者，你当小弟吃饱了撑的，有那样的闲情逸致么？”
But the robed cultivator chuckled: "Brother Senior, you're overthinking this. I merely said that he's quite interesting and planned to follow him secretly just to watch the spectacle. When did I say we must definitely offend him or provoke a peer-level cultivator? Do you think I have such idle time?"
zhè fān huí dá yě suàn hé qíng hé lǐ ， rán ér zhōng nián rén de liǎn shàng ， què háo wú shì huái zhī yì ， zì jǐ de shī dì ， zì jǐ zuì qīng chǔ ， liǎng rén zuò tóng mén ， dōu yǒu jìn bǎi wàn nián zhī jiǔ le ， tā yòu qǐ huì bù liǎo jiě duì fāng de xìng gé 。
这番回答也算合情合理，然而中年人的脸上，却毫无释怀之意，自己的师弟，自己最清楚，两人做同门，都有近百万年之久了，他又岂会不了解对方的性格。
This response was reasonable enough, but the middle-aged man still seemed unconvinced. He knew his junior well; they had been fellow disciples for nearly a million years. How could he not understand his temperament?
yuán běn jiù shì yī pí qì huǒ bào de rén wù ， xiū liàn de gōng fǎ yòu jiǎng jiū suí xīn suǒ yù ， měi cì chū mén ， nǎ yī huí bú dào chù chuǎng huò 。
原本就是一脾气火爆的人物，修炼的功法又讲究随心所欲，每次出门，哪一回不到处闯祸。
The junior was always fiery-tempered and his cultivation techniques favored spontaneity. Each time he went out, he invariably caused trouble.
zhǐ bù guò shī dì shēn wèi dù jié jí bié de xiū xiān zhě ， fàng yǎn sān jiè ， dōu shì qū zhǐ kě shǔ de rén wù ， duì fāng jí biàn chī le kǔ 。 yě wéi yǒu niē zhe bí zi rèn le 。
只不过师弟身为渡劫级别的修仙者，放眼三界，都是屈指可数的人物，对方即便吃了苦。也唯有捏着鼻子认了。
However, as a Transcendation-stage cultivator, the junior was one of the few in all three realms. Even if the other party suffered, they could only grit their teeth and accept it.
zhǎo dù jié qī xiū shì bào chóu ， nà qǐ bù shì xián xiǎo mìng ér huó dé tài jiǔ 。
找渡劫期修士报仇，那岂不是嫌小命儿活得太久。
Seeking revenge on a Transcendation-stage cultivator would be like complaining about living too long.
yīn wèi zhè ge yuán gù 。 shī dì píng shí hú nào tā dōu bù zěn me zài yì de ， rán ér zhè huí bù tóng ， shī dì dīng shàng de mù biāo ， kě shì tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě 。
因为这个缘故。师弟平时胡闹他都不怎么在意的，然而这回不同，师弟盯上的目标，可是同阶修仙者。
Because of this, he didn't mind his junior's usual antics, but this time was different. The target was a peer-level cultivator. A misstep could bring disaster to the sect.
yí gè bù hǎo ， jiù kě néng wèi zōng mén zhāo zāi rě huò ， tā zì rán bù néng bù guī quàn yī èr le 。
一个不好，就可能为宗门招灾惹祸，他自然不能不规劝一二了。
Thus, he couldn’t help but advise, though not too overtly. His junior’s personality might backfire if he pushed too hard.
dàn quàn dé tài míng xiǎn yě bù hǎo 。 yǐ shī dì de xìng gé ， shuō bù dìng huì yǒu shì dé qí fǎn de xiào guǒ 。
但劝得太明显也不好。以师弟的性格，说不定会有适得其反的效果。
The middle-aged man carefully worded his advice: "Junior Brother, since this person is at your level, their divine sense must be strong. If you follow him, you might inadvertently reveal yourself..."
zhōng nián rén bù dé bù zhēn zì zhuó jù ：“ shī dì ， nà rén jì shì tóng jiē cún zài ， shén shí kěn dìng bù ruò 。 nǐ ruò shì gēn zài hòu miàn ， yī bù liú shén ， jiù huì bèi tā xiàn de ……”
中年人不得不斟字酌句：“师弟，那人既是同阶存在，神识肯定不弱。你若是跟在后面，一不留神，就会被他现的……”
"Haha, Brother Senior, you're worried about that? Don't worry; recently, I just figured out a secret technique for concealing my aura and hiding. Even if the other party is only an early-stage cultivator like us, they can’t detect me."
“ hē hē 。 shī xiōng yuán lái shì zài dān xīn zhè ge ， fàng xīn ， bù jiǔ qián 。 xiǎo dì gāng hǎo cān wù le yī zhǒng mì shù ， duì yú shōu liǎn qì xī yǔ yǐn cáng 。 yǒu zhe bù kě sī yì de xiào guǒ ， bié shuō duì fāng zhǐ shì rú wǒ men yì bān de chū qī cún zài ， jiù suàn shì dù jié zhōng qī de xiū xiān zhě ， yě jué duì xiàn bù liǎo xiǎo dì yǐn nì zài cè 。
“呵呵。师兄原来是在担心这个，放心，不久前。小弟刚好参悟了一种秘术，对于收敛气息与隐藏。有着不可思议的效果，别说对方只是如我们一般的初期存在，就算是渡劫中期的修仙者，也绝对现不了小弟隐匿在侧。
"Oh, there's such a secret technique?" The middle-aged man was surprised.
“ ó ， jìng yǒu rú cǐ mì shù ？” nà zhōng nián rén yǒu diǎn chà yì de shuō 。
“哦，竟有如此秘术？”那中年人有点诧异的说。
"Is Brother Senior not believing me? Let me show you," the robed cultivator said indignantly.
“ zěn me ， shī xiōng bù xiāng xìn me ， nà xiǎo dì yǎn shì yī xià rú hé ？” pī xiū shì fú rán bù yuè de shuō 。
“怎么，师兄不相信么，那小弟演示一下如何？”披修士怫然不悦的说。
"No need for that, Brother Junior. I wouldn't doubt you anyway. Since so, do as you please. After all, he is at your level; try to avoid trouble if possible."
“ shī dì jiàn wài le 。 yú xiōng zěn me huì bù xiāng xìn nǐ ne ， jì rán rú cǐ 。 nǐ hǎo zì wèi zhī ， duì fāng bì jìng shì tóng jiē cún zài ， néng bù zhāo rě jǐn liàng bú yào zhāo rě 。” zhōng nián rén tàn le kǒu qì ， quàn shuō méi yǒu yì yì ， tā yě zhǐ hǎo diǎn dào wéi zhǐ 。
“师弟见外了。愚兄怎么会不相信你呢，既然如此。你好自为之，对方毕竟是同阶存在，能不招惹尽量不要招惹。”中年人叹了口气，劝说没有意义，他也只好点到为止。
The middle-aged man sighed and stopped his advice, knowing it was futile. He could only mention the matter briefly.
“ xíng le shī xiōng ， xiǎo dì xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， nǐ kě shì táng táng gǔ mó ， mù yún mó zūn yě suàn wēi míng yuǎn bō ， xíng shì zěn me huì rú cǐ dǎn xiǎo ， zhè chuán chū qù ， kě huì ràng rén xiào diào dà yá de 。
“行了师兄，小弟心中有数，你可是堂堂古魔，牧云魔尊也算威名远播，行事怎么会如此胆小，这传出去，可会让人笑掉大牙的。
"Alright, Brother Senior, I'll be careful. The miscellaneous tasks of the sect can be handled by you alone."
zhōng nián rén tīng le kū xiào bù dé ， yě jiù shī dì gǎn zài zì jǐ miàn qián zhè yàng shuō ， huàn yí gè rén ， fēi jiāng tā chōu hún liàn pò 。
中年人听了哭笑不得，也就师弟敢在自己面前这样说，换一个人，非将他抽魂炼魄。
The robed cultivator didn't want to continue arguing. With a burst of demonic light, he transformed into a black wind and disappeared.
“ hǎo le ， shī xiōng ， xiǎo dì huì yī qiè xiǎo xīn de ， zōng nèi de zá wù ， jiù láo fán nǐ yí gè rén chǔ lǐ le 。”
“好了，师兄，小弟会一切小心的，宗内的杂务，就劳烦你一个人处理了。”
Leaving the Drifting Cloud Valley Sovereign to sigh. His junior was still alive for tens of thousands of years, yet his actions were still as reckless as ever.
pī xiū shì shuō dào zhè lǐ ， bù xiǎng jì xù luō suo xià qù ， hún shēn mó guāng yì qǐ ， huà wèi yī dào hēi fēng hū xiào ér qù 。
披修士说到这里，不想继续啰嗦下去，浑身魔光一起，化为一道黑风呼啸而去。
His demonic techniques were powerful, but that spontaneous nature was too infuriating.
liú xià mù yún mó zūn zài nà ér tàn xī ， shī dì hǎo dǎi yě shì huó le shù shí wàn nián de rén wù ， xíng shì hái shì zhè yàng fēng fēng huǒ huǒ 。
留下牧云魔尊在那儿叹息，师弟好歹也是活了数十万年的人物，行事还是这样风风火火。
The Drifting Cloud Valley Sovereign grumbled inwardly, but he wasn't overly worried. The intelligence reported back indicated the mysterious cultivator was only at an early Transcendation stage.
tā xiū liàn de mó gōng wēi lì suī qiáng ， dàn zhè suí xīn suǒ yù de xìng gé ， shí zài tài ràng rén shòu bù liǎo le 。
他修炼的魔功威力虽强，但这随心所欲的性格，实在太让人受不了了。
Among peers, his junior was undoubtedly outstanding; even he couldn’t match him. Even if they truly became enemies, it shouldn't cause much trouble.
mù yún mó zūn fù fěi bù yǐ ， dàn zhēn yào shuō dān xīn ， què yě bìng bú shì tài duō ， qíng bào chuán huí lái de xiāo xī ， nà shén mì de xiū xiān zhě ， yě bù guò dù jié chū qī bà le 。
牧云魔尊腹诽不已，但真要说担心，却也并不是太多，情报传回来的消息，那神秘的修仙者，也不过渡劫初期罢了。
...
ér zài tóng jiē cún zài zhōng ， shī dì jué duì shì chū lèi bá cuì de rén wù ， biàn shì zì jǐ ， yě dà wèi bù jí ， jiù suàn zhēn yǔ nà rén jiāo wù ， yīng gāi yě bú huì yǒu dà ài de 。
而在同阶存在中，师弟绝对是出类拔萃的人物，便是自己，也大为不及，就算真与那人交恶，应该也不会有大碍的。
Lin Xuan didn't know any of this as he continued walking leisurely.
……
……
Along the way, there were markets or places where cultivators gathered, and Lin Xuan wasn't averse to pausing for rest or fortune-telling, hoping to find something useful by chance.
ér zhè yī qiè ， lín xuān bìng bù xiǎo de 。
而这一切，林轩并不晓得。
However, reality proved that opportunities were rare. Apart from gathering numerous medicinal pills for Yin'er, he didn’t find any other valuable treasures.
tā yī jiù zài bù jǐn bù màn de gǎn lù 。
他依旧在不紧不慢的赶路。
But he remained undiscouraged; it was just luck. Finding something was naturally joyful, but not finding anything wasn't worth feeling depressed about either.
yī lù shàng yǒu fāng shì ， huò zhě xiū xiān zhě de jù jū zhī suǒ ， lín xuān yě bù jiè yì tíng liú yī èr 。
一路上有坊市，或者修仙者的聚居之所，林轩也不介意停留一二。
Walking and pausing, the original six-month journey took Lin Xuan a full year to finally reach his destination.
yī shì shāo shì xiū xī ， èr shì pèng pèng yùn qì ， kàn néng bù néng jī yuán qiǎo hé ， xún mì dào duì zì jǐ yǒu yòng de bǎo wù 。
一是稍事休息，二是碰碰运气，看能不能机缘巧合，寻觅到对自己有用的宝物。
This was deep within a mountain where the aura was exceptionally thin. There were few cultivators or beasts nearby; ordinary fierce beasts like giant snakes and tigers existed but posed no threat to him.
kě shì shí zhèng míng ， jī yuán zhè dōng xī ， jué duì shì kě yù ér bù kě qiú 。
可事实证明，机缘这东西，绝对是可遇而不可求。
Looking at the scenery before him, Lin Xuan didn't show much surprise on his face. He had only been in the cultivation world for a few thousand years, yet his experiences rivaled those of ancient monsters who lived for millions of years.
lín xuān yī lù shàng ， chú le wèi 6 yíng ér shōu luó dào yī dà duī dān yào ， duì yú zì jǐ yǒu yòng de bǎo wù ， zé yī yàng yě méi yǒu xún mì dào de 。
林轩一路上，除了为6盈儿收罗到一大堆丹药，对于自己有用的宝物，则一样也没有寻觅到的。
Searching for treasures in ancient ruins was something he had experienced multiple times.
dàn tā bìng bù qì něi ， yuán běn jiù shì pèng pèng yùn qì ， zhǎo dào le gù rán xīn xǐ ， zhǎo bú dào ， yě méi yǒu shén me hǎo yù mèn dì 。
但他并不气馁，原本就是碰碰运气，找到了固然欣喜，找不到，也没有什么好郁闷地。
Ancient cultivators' dwellings might seem unremarkable at first glance, but that was normal.
jiù zhè yàng zǒu zǒu tíng tíng ， yuán běn bàn nián de lù chéng ， lín xuān zú zú yòng le yí bèi de shí jiān ， cái zhōng yú lái dào mù dì dì 。
就这样走走停停，原本半年的路程，林轩足足用了一倍的时间，才终于来到目的地。
Lin Xuan's遁光had already stopped. With a wave of his sleeve, an ancient and simple jade eye scroll flew out. Lin Xuan reached for it without hesitation, lowering his head to immerse his divine sense.
zhè shì yī dà shān de shēn chù ， rán ér líng qì què shí fēn xī bó ， fù jìn bié shuō xiū xiān zhě ， biàn shì yāo shòu yě bù duō 。
这是一大山的深处，然而灵气却十分稀薄，附近别说修仙者，便是妖兽也不多。
After about the time it took to drink tea, Lin Xuan raised his head again, looking around with a hint of joy on his face.
pǔ tōng de měng shòu dǎo shì yǒu yī xiē ， bǐ rú shuō jù mǎng lǎo hǔ ， bù guò duì lín xuān lái shuō ， zì rán shì fēn háo wēi xié yě wú 。
普通的猛兽倒是有一些，比如说巨蟒老虎，不过对林轩来说，自然是分毫威胁也无。
"Correct, this is where it is."
wàng zhuó yǎn qián de jǐng sè ， lín xuān liǎn shàng dǎo shì méi yǒu lù chū duō shǎo yí huò ， tā tà rù xiū xiān jiè mǎn dǎ mǎn suàn bù guò shù qiān nián ， rán ér ruò lùn jīng lì zhī fēng fù ， bǐ zhī nà xiē huó le bǎi wàn nián de lǎo guài wù ， yě tóng yàng shì bù chěng duō ràng de 。
望着眼前的景色，林轩脸上倒是没有露出多少疑惑，他踏入修仙界满打满算不过数千年，然而若论经历之丰富，比之那些活了百万年的老怪物，也同样是不逞多让的。
He then shook his hand, and a spell formula shot out from his fingertips, entering the treasure map.
shàng gǔ yí jì xún bǎo ， lèi sì de jīng lì ， lín xuān yǒu guò shù cì zhī duō 。
上古遗迹寻宝，类似的经历，林轩有过数次之多。
Peng, the jade eye scroll split open. A picture appeared before him, showing birds, beasts, insects, fish, and colorful light swirling around. Lin Xuan felt familiar with it but couldn't recall where he had seen it.
gǔ xiū shì de dòng fǔ ， biǎo miàn shàng kàn qǐ lái bù qǐ yǎn ， nà shì zhèng cháng dào jí chù 。
古修士的洞府，表面上看起来不起眼，那是正常到极处。
Cultivators indeed had a photographic memory for important things like techniques or treasures, but ordinary matters could be forgotten over time.
lín xuān de dùn guāng ， zǎo yǐ tíng xià lái le ， xiù páo yī fú ， yī gǔ piáo de yù tóng jiǎn fēi lüè ér chū ， lín xuān shēn shǒu jiē guò ， háo bù yóu yù de dī xià tou lú ， jiāng shén shí chén rù 。
林轩的遁光，早已停下来了，袖袍一拂，一古朴的玉瞳简飞掠而出，林轩伸手接过，毫不犹豫的低下头颅，将神识沉入。
But now wasn’t the time to dwell on it. Spell formula after spell formula was cast as the scroll's aura flowed more rapidly. Not only that, but the surrounding primordial energy also converged towards the scroll, flowing into it.
"Isn't this a bit risky? After all, we don't know if the other party is friend or foe."
Compared to the robed cultivator, the middle-aged man clearly appeared more mature and prudent. Upon hearing his junior's words, he frowned.
The Lost Realm of Drifting Cloud Valley was famous for its powerful demonic sects, so their actions wouldn't be as timid as a mouse. However, this matter involved an old monster at the Transcendation stage, so even he had to carefully consider it.
