lín xuān yī dāi ， yī shí jiān yě méi yǒu nòng qīng chǔ duì fāng de dǎ suàn ， yú shì yǐ bù biàn yīng wàn biàn ， xuán fú zài bàn kōng lǐ ， yě méi yǒu mào rán fā dòng gōng jī 。
林轩一呆，一时间也没有弄清楚对方的打算，于是以不变应万变，悬浮在半空里，也没有冒然发动攻击。
Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned and couldn't quite figure out the other party's intentions. So, he decided to take a passive approach, floating in mid-air without rashly initiating an attack.
qì fēn xiǎn de yǒu xiē guǐ yì 。
气氛显得有些诡异。
The atmosphere seemed somewhat eerie.
“ zhè shì jiǔ gōng xū yú ， nǐ yǔ yāo wū shén nǚ shén me guān xì ？”
“这是九宫须臾，你与夭巫神女什么关系？”
"This is the Nine Palaces Momentary Technique. What relation do you have with the Heavenly Witch Goddess?"
nà pī fà xiū shì de biǎo qíng biàn dé yīn lěng wú bǐ ， shēng yīn zhōng de yuàn dú shì xiǎn ér yì jiàn dì 。
那披发修士的表情变得yīn冷无比，声音中的怨毒是显而易见地。
The bearded cultivator's expression turned icy, and the venom in his voice was evident.
“ lín mǒu píng shén me yào gào sù nǐ ？”
“林某凭什么要告诉你？”
"Why should I tell you?"
lín xuān cǐ shí de biǎo qíng yào hǎo yī xiē 。
林轩此时的表情要好一些。
Lin Xuan's expression was better at this moment.
gāng cái shì zài bì zhōng de yī jī méi yǒu qǐ dào xiào guǒ ， lín xuān què shí dà gǎn jīng è ， dàn zǐ xì huí yì ， duì fāng suī rán méi yǒu duǒ ， dàn zài jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jí jiāng mìng zhòng de yī kè ， tā de shēn tǐ què huà zuò le tòu míng zhī wù 。
刚才势在必中的一击没有起到效果，林轩确实大感惊愕，但仔细回忆，对方虽然没有躲，但在九宫须臾剑即将命中的一刻，他的身体却化作了透明之物。
After the failed strike earlier, Lin Xuan was indeed surprised but recalled that although the other party didn't dodge, just as the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword was about to hit, his body turned transparent.
gù ér xiān jiàn chuān guò ， cái méi yǒu qǐ dào fēn háo xiào guǒ 。
故而仙剑穿过，才没有起到分毫效果。
Thus, the immortal sword passed through without effect.
zhǐ bù guò biàn huà tài guò xùn sù ， lín xuān zài nà yī kè dōu hū lüè guò qù le 。
只不过变化太过迅速，林轩在那一刻都忽略过去了。
However, the change happened too quickly for Lin Xuan to notice at the time.
“ huàn líng huà xū ！”
“幻灵化虚！”
"Phantom Spirit Sublimation!"
lín xuān de jiàn shí yě dàng zhēn liǎo bù qǐ 。
林轩的见识也当真了不起。
Lin Xuan's knowledge truly stood out.
zhè zhǒng mì shù ， zhī dào de rù bù duō ， dàn lín xuān què qià qiǎo tīng guò 。
这种秘术，知道的入不多，但林轩却恰巧听过。
This secret technique wasn't widely known, but he had heard of it before. From its name alone, one could tell it was similar to Sword Spirit Sublimation.
tīng míng zì ， jiù zhī dào yǔ jiàn líng huà xū yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì 。
听名字，就知道与剑灵化虚有几分相似。
However, while Sword Spirit Sublimation was used on treasures and could regenerate even if broken, Phantom Spirit Sublimation was different; it involved the cultivator themselves. Legend had it that with deep cultivation, one could train their body to be as intangible as a phantom.
zhǐ bù guò jiàn líng huà xū shì yòng yú bǎo wù ， jí biàn bèi dǎ suì hòu ， yě néng chóng shēng de mì shù 。
只不过剑灵化虚是用于宝物，即便被打碎后，也能重生的秘术。
Of course, this didn't mean invincibility, but in critical moments, it would definitely save one's life.
ér huàn líng huà xū bù tóng ， yǔ bǎo wù méi yǒu guān xì ， shì xiū xiān zhě zì jǐ xiū xí ， chuán shuō xiū liàn dào jí shēn de chéng dù ， néng gòu jiāng shēn tǐ xiū liàn dé rú tóng wú xíng zhī wù yì bān 。
而幻灵化虚不同，与宝物没有关系，是修仙者自己修习，传说修炼到极深的程度，能够将身体修炼得如同无形之物一般。
Lin Xuan admired this secret technique and had once paid attention at auctions and markets, but found nothing.
dāng rán ， yě bú shì shuō zhēn de wú dí ， rán ér zài guān jiàn shí kè ， yòng yú bǎo mìng ， què jué duì hǎo shǐ 。
当然，也不是说真的无敌，然而在关键时刻，用于保命，却绝对好使。
Such techniques were of such great value that they were hard to describe. Obtaining them wasn't easy; it required good fortune and opportunities.
lín xuān duì cǐ mì shù ， yě shì xīn xiàng wǎng zhī ， yě céng liú yì pāi mài huì yǔ fāng shì ， rán ér yī wú suǒ huò 。
林轩对此秘术，也是心向往之，也曾留意拍卖会与坊市，然而一无所获。
This was something Lin Xuan understood well, so he merely kept an eye on things without harboring any expectations.
rú cǐ mì shù ， jià zhí zhī dà ， nán yǐ xíng róng ， xiǎng yào huò dé ， dāng rán bú shì nà me róng yì ， zhè xū yào jī yuán yǔ yùn qì 。
如此秘术，价值之大，难以形容，想要获得，当然不是那么容易，这需要机缘与运气。
Unexpectedly, the way this secret technique was practiced eluded him, but now it had been demonstrated before his eyes.
zhè dào lǐ ， lín xuān dāng rán xiǎo de ， suǒ yǐ yě zhǐ shì liú yì ， bìng méi yǒu diàn jì 。
这道理，林轩当然晓得，所以也只是留意，并没有惦记。
Would eliminating these域外夭魔 from beyond bring a method to practice Phantom Spirit Sublimation?
bù céng xiǎng ， zhè mì shù gāi rú hé xiū xí ， tā bù xiǎo de ， què xiān jiàn rù shī zhǎn chū lái le 。
不曾想，这秘术该如何修习，他不晓得，却先见入施展出来了。
Hope flickered in Lin Xuan's eyes.
ruò jiāng yǎn qián de yù wài yāo mó miè chú ， huì bú huì cóng tā shēn shàng ， dé dào rú hé xiū liàn huàn líng huà xū de fāng fǎ ne ？
若将眼前的域外夭魔灭除，会不会从他身上，得到如何修炼幻灵化虚的方法呢？
However, the other party's expression differed from their first meeting. Although he had no benevolent intentions from the start, his current expression clearly showed intense hatred towards him.
lín xuān yǎn zhōng shǎn guò qī dài zhī sè。
林轩眼中闪过期待之sè。
When the other party mentioned the Nine Palaces Momentary Technique and the Heavenly Witch Goddess, did they have a grudge against the Mo Yue Clan?
ér duì fāng cǐ shí de biǎo qíng ， què yǔ chū jiàn shí bù tóng 。
而对方此时的表情，却与初见时不同。
No, it seemed more like a deep-seated enmity.
suī rán cóng yī kāi shǐ ， tā jiù méi yǒu shàn yì ， rán ér xiàn zài de biǎo qíng ， míng xiǎn shì hèn jí le zì jǐ 。
虽然从一开始，他就没有善意，然而现在的表情，明显是恨极了自己。
Lin Xuan analyzed these thoughts but only briefly. Since knowing this wouldn't change anything, he was already in an all-or-nothing situation.
gāng cái duì fāng tí dào jiǔ gōng xū yú ， tí dào yāo wū shén nǚ ， nán dào tā yǔ mò yuè zú yǒu xián xì ？
刚才对方提到九宫须臾，提到夭巫神女，难道他与墨月族有嫌隙？
With that thought, Lin Xuan's eyes revealed murderous intent as the other party continued: "Little fellow, if you don’t want to answer my question, it’s fine. I will make sure you can neither live nor die..."
bù ， yīng gāi shì chóu yuàn bù xiǎo de yàng zi 。
不，应该是仇怨不小的样子。
Before he could finish, a sinister and fierce expression appeared on his face. His figure flashed, and dark magical light enveloped him, making him appear hazy. Then, nine identical bearded cultivators suddenly lined up.
lín xuān zài xīn zhōng fēn xī ， bù guò yě jǐn jǐn shì diǎn dào jí zhǐ ， yīn wèi xiǎng dé zài qīng chǔ yě méi yǒu yì yì ， yǎn qián běn lái jiù shì bù sǐ bù xiū de jié jú 。
林轩在心中分析，不过也仅仅是点到即止，因为想得再清楚也没有意义，眼前本来就是不死不休的结局。
These fellows had no discernible flaws in their movements or appearances; they were indistinguishable from the previous域外夭魔. More astonishingly, even their spiritual pressure was at the level of those who have passed through trials.
niàn jí zhì cǐ ， lín xuān de yǎn zhōng liú lù chū shā qì ， ér duì fāng de shēng yīn yǐ zài cì chuán dào zì jǐ de ěr duǒ lǐ ：“ xiǎo jiā huo ， bù xiǎng huí dá běn zūn de wèn tí ， méi guān xì ， wǒ huì ràng nǐ qiú shēng bù dé ， qiú sǐ bù néng dì ……”
念及至此，林轩的眼中流露出杀气，而对方的声音已再次传到自己的耳朵里：“小家伙，不想回答本尊的问题，没关系，我会让你求生不得，求死不能地……”
Illusion?
huà yīn wèi luò ， tā de liǎn shàng ， yǐ fú xiàn chū zhēng níng de xiōng lì zhī sè， shēn xíng yī shǎn ， mó guāng dà zuò ， shēn xíng biàn dé mó hú ， suí hòu jiǔ míng yī mú yī yàng de pī fà xiū shì ， yī xià bìng pái zhàn chū 。
话音未落，他的脸上，已浮现出狰狞的凶厉之sè，身形一闪，魔光大做，身形变得模糊，随后九名一模一样的披发修士，一下并排站出。
No, it likely went beyond that!
zhè xiē jiā huo bù lùn shēn xíng dòng zuò ， dōu sī háo pò zhàn yě wú ， yǔ gāng cái de yù wài yāo mó kàn bù chū bàn diǎn qū bié zhī chù ， gèng jiā bù kě sī yì de shì ， lián líng yā dōu quán bù shì dù jié jí bié de 。
这些家伙不论身形动作，都丝毫破绽也无，与刚才的域外夭魔看不出半点区别之处，更加不可思议的是，连灵压都全部是渡劫级别的。
Lin Xuan's expression remained calm as he observed nine域外夭魔 lifting a leg and generating dark wind. They charged towards him in different postures.
huàn shù ？
幻术？
How fast they were moving!
bù ， kǒng pà hái yào gāo jí xǔ duō ！
不，恐怕还要高级许多！
At this moment, even if he had used Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes, there wouldn't have been time to discern the truth.
lín xuān xīn zhōng yī lǐn ， bù guò liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng yī 1rì zhèn dìng ， suí hòu zhǐ jiàn nà jiǔ míng yù wài yāo mó yī tái tuǐ ， mó fēng dà zuò ， gè zì yǐ bù tóng de zī shì xiàng zì jǐ pū guò lái le 。
林轩心中一凛，不过脸上的表情依1rì镇定，随后只见那九名域外夭魔一抬腿，魔风大做，各自以不同的姿势像自己扑过来了。
Lin Xuan quickly assessed the situation.
hǎo kuài de sù dù ！
好快的速度！
Knowing their true forms wasn’t necessary; Lin Xuan had a way to handle it.
zhè zhǒng shí kè ， biàn shì xiǎng yào shī zhǎn yāo fèng shén mù ， kǒng pà dōu lái bù jí le ， duì fāng chū zhāo tài guò xùn sù ， jí qiè zhī jiān ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu shí jiān biàn shí chū zhēn jiǎ de 。
这种时刻，便是想要施展夭凤神目，恐怕都来不及了，对方出招太过迅速，急切之间，根本就没有时间辨识出真假的。
With a wave of his sleeve, the Nine Palaces Momentary Swords dispersed around him, and silver light shone as he used the Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers technique to attack all nine bearded cultivators.
lín xuān hé děng rù wù ， yī shùn jiān jiù zuò chū zhè yàng de pàn duàn lái le 。
林轩何等入物，一瞬间就做出这样的判断来了。
Wasn't there any need for discernment?
dàn tā yī 1rì bù jí 。
但他依1rì不急。
Nine Palaces Momentary had over eighty-one swords; attacking them all regardless was sufficient!
pàn duàn bù chū duì fāng de zhēn shēn yòu rú hé ， lín xuān yī 1rì yǒu bàn fǎ yìng fù 。
判断不出对方的真身又如何，林轩依1rì有办法应付。
Lin Xuan's solution seemed clumsy but practical. A cold snort sounded, and several bearded cultivators merged into one.
zhǐ jiàn tā xiù páo yī fú ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn xiàng zhe sì zhōu sàn shè， qǐng kè jiān yín guāng dà zuò ， què shì yǐ yāo nǚ sàn huā de shǒu fǎ ， jiāng jiǔ míng pī fà xiū shì ， quán bù dōu nà rù zì jǐ de gōng jī zhòng le 。
只见他袖袍一拂，九宫须臾剑像着四周散shè，顷刻间银光大做，却是以夭女散花的手法，将九名披发修士，全部都纳入自己的攻击中了。
Sure enough, it turned back into a single entity.
lái bù jí biàn shí zhēn jiǎ ？
来不及辨识真假？
Then, thunderous sounds echoed as the figure vanished in a trail of shadows.
wèn tí shì zì jǐ gēn běn jiù méi yǒu bì yào qù zuò a ！
问题是自己根本就没有必要去做啊！
"Thunder遁 Technique?"
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn kě shì yǒu jiǔ jiǔ bā shí yī bǐng zhī duō ， qū qū jiǔ míng dí rù guǎn tā shì zhēn shì jiǎ ， quán bù gōng jī bù jiù xíng la ？
九宫须臾剑可是有九九八十一柄之多，区区九名敌入管他是真是假，全部攻击不就行啦？
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows: "No, there's a difference."
lín xuān xiǎng chū lái de ， wú yí shì yí gè bèn bàn fǎ 。
林轩想出来的，无疑是一个笨办法。
Before he could finish his thought...
dàn què hěn yǒu yòng tú ， lěng hēng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， jiù jiàn jǐ míng pī fà xiū shì wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé 。
但却很有用途，冷哼声传入耳朵，就见几名披发修士往中间一合。
Countless lightning bolts appeared before him, and the figure also emerged amidst the dazzling electric light.
guǒ rán yòu huà wèi le yí gè 。
果然又化为了一个。
Without hesitation, it punched Lin Xuan’s head.
suí hòu pī lì shēng dà zuò ， zhè jiā huo dài qǐ yī piàn cán yǐng xiāo shī le 。
随后霹雳声大做，这家伙带起一片残影消失了。
Silent and swift.
“ léi dùn shù ？”
“雷遁术？”
However, Lin Xuan was not negligent.
lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo ：“ bú duì ， yòu yǒu bù tóng 。”
林轩眉头一挑：“不对，又有不同。”
By now, dodging wasn't an option; he raised both hands to block.
zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ……
这个念头尚未转过……
"Bang!"
zì jǐ shēn qián wú shù shǎn diàn yǐ fú xiàn ér chū ， yào mù de diàn guāng zhōng ， zhè jiā huo yě chū xiàn le 。
自己身前无数闪电已浮现而出，耀目的电光中，这家伙也出现了。
There was no suspense as this punch sent Lin Xuan flying like a kite, far away.
èr huà bù shuō ， yī quán dǎ xiàng lín xuān de tóu lú 。
二话不说，一拳打像林轩的头颅。
This confirmed Lin Xuan's guess: the域外夭魔 had stronger physical bodies than ordinary cultivators, even surpassing ancient demons of the same rank.
wú shēng wú xī 。
无声无息。
One punch sent Lin Xuan flying, but the域外夭魔 was more surprised. He knew his strength well; after enhancing this body, he could exert immense force.
rán ér lín xuān què fēn háo yě bù gǎn yǒu dài màn zhī yì 。
然而林轩却分毫也不敢有怠慢之意。
Even a human cultivator or a妖族 of the same rank might have broken bones, yet this figure merely looked disheveled.
zhè shí hòu duǒ yǐ jīng lái bù jí ， tā shuāng shǒu tái qǐ ， zuò le yí gè gé dǎng de dòng zuò 。
这时候躲已经来不及，他双手抬起，做了一个格挡的动作。
How come?
“ pēng ！”
“嘭！”
The域外夭魔 stared at his fist in confusion for a moment, forgetting to continue attacking due to shock.
sī háo xuán niàn yě wú ， lín xuān bèi zhè yī quán dǎ fēi diào le ， rú duàn xiàn de fēng zhēng yì bān ， fēi chū hǎo yuǎn 。
丝毫悬念也无，林轩被这一拳打飞掉了，如断线的风筝一般，飞出好远。
Frankly speaking, Lin Xuan had suffered significantly. The power behind that punch was beyond imagination; if it had been followed by a series of consecutive strikes, he wouldn't have fallen but would likely have sustained injuries.
zhè yě yìn zhèng le lín xuān de cāi cè ， yù wài yāo mó ， ròu shēn guǒ rán yě bǐ pǔ tōng de xiū shì qiáng hèng xǔ duō ， shèn zhì yuǎn shèng tóng jiē gǔ mó 。
这也印证了林轩的猜测，域外夭魔，肉身果然也比普通的修士强横许多，甚至远胜同阶古魔。
However, fortune favored the bold. Seizing this opportunity, Lin Xuan, who always retaliated in kind, decided to test his spatial abilities.
yī quán jiāng lín xuān dǎ fēi ， nà yù wài yāo mó què gèng jiā jīng è ， zì jǐ de shí lì ， zì jǐ zuì qīng chǔ ， zhè jù shēn tǐ ， suī rán shì duó shě ， dàn jīng tā qiáng huà zhī hòu ， gēn běn jiù shì lì dà wú qióng 。
一拳将林轩打飞，那域外夭魔却更加惊愕，自己的实力，自己最清楚，这具身体，虽然是夺舍，但经他强化之后，根本就是力大无穷。
Thoughts raced through his mind as his actions were equally swift.
bié shuō yī míng rù lèi xiū xiān zhě ， jiù suàn shì tóng jiē yāo zú ， yě yǒu kě néng bèi dǎ gè jīn duàn gǔ zhé ， ér zhè jiā huo ， zhǐ bù guò shuāi dé yǒu xiē láng bèi bà le 。
别说一名入类修仙者，就算是同阶妖族，也有可能被打个筋断骨折，而这家伙，只不过摔得有些狼狈罢了。
He raised his right hand and made a gesture before vanishing from sight.
zěn me huì ne ？
怎么会呢？
In the next moment, spatial ripples surged, and Lin Xuan appeared beside the enemy.
yī shí jiān ， yù wài yāo mó kàn le kàn zì jǐ de quán tou ， biǎo qíng yě yǒu xiē huǎng hū 。
一时间，域外夭魔看了看自己的拳头，表情也有些恍惚。
Without hesitation, he lifted his right hand and pushed it towards the other party with one palm.
yīn wèi tài guò jīng è ， dào wàng jì jì xù gōng jī le 。
因为太过惊愕，倒忘记继续攻击了。
Lin Xuan wasn't just a cultivator; coincidentally, he had also practiced martial arts in the secular world. Using inner strength, an evil wind arose.
píng xīn lái shuō ， lín xuān zhè yī xià ， chī le bù xiǎo de kǔ ， duì fāng zhè yī quán wēi lì zhī qiáng ， chāo hū xiǎng xiàng ， ruò shì jǐn jiē zhe lái yī chuàn lián jī ， lín xuān yǔn luò bù zhì yú ， dàn shòu yī xiē shāng ， què shì dà yǒu kě néng dì 。
平心来说，林轩这一下，吃了不小的苦，对方这一拳威力之强，超乎想象，若是紧接着来一串连击，林轩陨落不至于，但受一些伤，却是大有可能地。
But the域外夭魔 was no pushover. Although Lin Xuan's speed exceeded his expectations, this single palm strike didn’t impress him much.
rán ér shì shì wú cháng ， guān jiàn shí kè ， duì fāng jū rán lèng zài le nà lǐ 。
然而世事无常，关键时刻，对方居然愣在了那里。
However, the enemy was cunning and had noticed that Lin Xuan wasn't easily dealt with after a few exchanges. This palm likely held some hidden move.
zhè me hǎo de jī huì ， lín xuān nǎ huì fàng qì 。
这么好的机会，林轩哪会放弃。
Without guessing further, he punched Lin Xuan again.
Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned and couldn't quite figure out the other party's intentions. So, he decided to take a passive approach, floating in mid-air without rashly initiating an attack.
The atmosphere seemed somewhat eerie.
"This is the Nine Palaces Momentary Technique. What relation do you have with the Heavenly Witch Goddess?"
The bearded cultivator's expression turned icy, and the venom in his voice was evident.
"Why should I tell you?"
Lin Xuan's expression was better at this moment.
After the failed strike earlier, Lin Xuan was indeed surprised but recalled that although the other party didn't dodge, just as the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword was about to hit, his body turned transparent.
Thus, the immortal sword passed through without effect.
However, the change happened too quickly for Lin Xuan to notice at the time.
"Phantom Spirit Sublimation!"
