第三千零九十章 渡劫期老祖

bsp;    yě nán guài yín tóng shào nǚ cuò è ， yào zhī dào xiū xiān xiū xiān ， shì yuè dào hòu miàn yuè jiān nán 。

bsp;   也难怪银瞳少女错愕，要知道修仙修仙，是越到后面越艰难。

It was no wonder the silver-eyed girl was shocked. After all, cultivation was a path that grew increasingly difficult as one progressed.

fàng yǎn sān jiè ， zòng héng jīn gǔ ， tiān cái zhī shì shǔ bù shèng shǔ ， rán ér dù jié jí bié de dà néng cái jǐ gè 。

放眼三界，纵横今古，天才之士数不胜数，然而渡劫级别的大能才几个。

Across the Three Realms and through history, there were countless prodigies, but those who could successfully transcend the Tribulation Realm were few and far between.

gèng bú yào shuō ， rú cǐ kě pà de jìn jiē sù dù ， ruò bú shì qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， bù lùn shuí shuō yǔ tā men tīng ， dōu bú huì xiāng xìn 。

更不要说，如此可怕的进阶速度，若不是亲眼目睹，不论谁说与他们听，都不会相信。

To think of it, such an alarming rate of advancement—no matter how many people heard about it, they would not believe it. Breaking through the Tribulation Realm bottleneck in just a few centuries was unheard of before. Even among the three most renowned Loose Immortals and three Demon Kings in the Spirit Realm, this kind of progression speed was inconceivable.

duǎn duǎn de shù bǎi nián jiù jiāng dù jié qī píng jǐng tū pò ， zhè yàng de shōu huò ， bù gǎn shuō yí dìng hòu wú lái zhě ， dàn zhì shǎo kěn dìng shì qián wú gǔ rén le ， jiù suàn shì líng jiè wēi míng hè hè de sān dà sàn xiān ， sān dà yāo wáng ， yě jué bù kě néng yǒu zhè yàng de jìn jí sù dù 。

短短的数百年就将渡劫期瓶颈突破，这样的收获，不敢说一定后无来者，但至少肯定是前无古人了，就算是灵界威名赫赫的三大散仙，三大妖王，也绝不可能有这样的晋级速度。

Not to mention Loose Immortals or Demon Kings, even the legendary Aśvatarā King, who was known for his unparalleled talent, likely did not have such a high efficiency in cultivation.

bié shuō sàn xiān yāo wáng le ， jiù suàn shì chuán shuō zhōng nà wèi jīng cái jué yàn de yīn sī zhī zhǔ ， ā xiū luó wáng ， kǒng pà xiū liàn xiào lǜ yě méi yǒu zhè me gāo de 。

别说散仙妖王了，就算是传说中那位惊才绝艳的yīn司之主，阿修罗王，恐怕修炼效率也没有这么高的。

The silver-eyed girl herself was an advanced-stage Spiritual Refinement Practitioner, and she had firsthand experience with the Tribulation Realm bottleneck. She knew how terrifyingly difficult it could be.

bié de bù shuō ， yín tóng shào nǚ zì jǐ jiù shì fēn shén hòu qī dǐng fēng de xiū xiān zhě ， zì rán yǒu qiè shēn gǎn chù ， néng gòu tǐ huì dào dù jié qī píng jǐng ， jiū jìng yǒu rú hé kě pà de nán dù 。

别的不说，银瞳少女自己就是分神后期顶峰的修仙者，自然有切身感触，能够体会到渡劫期瓶颈，究竟有如何可怕的难度。

She had been stuck at this stage for countless millennia without any progress. Not even knowing where to start on how to break through.

tā kùn zài zhè ge jìng jiè yǐ yǒu shù wàn nián le ， rán ér què méi yǒu bàn fēn jìn zhǎn ， bù ， bié shuō jìn zhǎn le ， lián gāi rú hé tū pò  ” ”  de tóu xù yě wú 。

她困在这个境界已有数万年了，然而却没有半分进展，不，别说进展了，连该如何突破 ” ” 的头绪也无。

Though her talents were not bad, ranking among the top in her peer group, the Tribulation Realm bottleneck was something beyond ordinary people's comprehension. Her path of Immortal Dao had ended here; no matter what opportunities she might have, she would never advance again in this life.

yín tóng shào nǚ zì wèn ， zī zhì yě suàn bù sú ， zài tóng bèi xiū shì zhōng suàn shì chū lèi bá cuì de le 。

银瞳少女自问，资质也算不俗，在同辈修士中算是出类拔萃的了。

This wasn't self-deprecation but a harsh reality.

kě nà yòu rú hé ， dù jié qī píng jǐng gēn běn shì cháng rén nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de ， zì jǐ de xiān dào yǐ zhǐ yú cǐ chù ， jiù suàn yǒu zài dà de jī yuán ， jīn shēng yě jué bù kě néng jìn jí le 。

可那又如何，渡劫期瓶颈根本是常人难以想象的，自己的仙道已止于此处，就算有再大的机缘，今生也绝不可能晋级了。

Denying it served no purpose.

zhè bú shì wàng zì fěi bó ， ér shì xiàn shí jiù shì zhè yàng méi cuò 。

这不是妄自菲薄，而是现实就是这样没错。

Thus, Lin Xuan took out the minor Tribulation Realm cultivation technique he had devised to sidestep the bottleneck. This was why the silver-eyed girl was overjoyed and sincerely grateful towards him. For her, this was the best choice.

fǒu rèn yě méi yǒu yòng tú 。

否认也没有用途。

In the silver-eyed girl's heart, Lin Xiuxue was an exceptional practitioner. She firmly believed that one day, he would become a Tribulation Realm cultivator she could not look up to.

gù ér lín xuān jiāng lìng pì xī jìng de xiǎo dù jié qī de xiū liàn gōng fǎ ná chū ， yín tóng shào nǚ cái huì xīn xǐ dào jí chù ， duì lín xuān zhōng xīn gǎn jī ， yīn wèi nà duì tā lái shuō ， yǐ shì zuì hǎo de xuǎn zé 。

故而林轩将另辟蹊径的小渡劫期的修炼功法拿出，银瞳少女才会欣喜到极处，对林轩衷心感激，因为那对她来说，已是最好的选择。

She had full confidence in Lin Xuan but never expected his advancement speed to be so astonishing—centuries! Heaven, just hearing about it sounded absurd.

zài yín tóng shào nǚ de xīn zhōng ， lín shī dì fēi cháng liǎo de ， tā háo bù huái yí lín xuān yǒu yī tiān ， huì chéng wéi zì jǐ wú fǎ yǎng wàng de dù jié qī xiū xiān zhě 。

在银瞳少女的心中，林师弟非常了得，她毫不怀疑林轩有一天，会成为自己无法仰望的渡劫期修仙者。

Thoughts raced through her mind as she became momentarily dazed. She even doubted whether Dragon Xiuxue had made a mistake. It wasn't that she didn't trust fellow sect members; such an unbelievable thing was simply too hard to believe.

duì lín xuān ， tā kě yǐ shuō xìn xīn shí zú ， kě yě bù céng xiǎng ， jìn jí sù dù kuài dào rú cǐ dì bù 。 shù bǎi nián 。 tiān nǎ ， guāng tīng tīng jiù jué de lí pǔ 。

对林轩，她可以说信心十足，可也不曾想，晋级速度快到如此地步。数百年。天哪，光听听就觉得离谱。

After all, ears hear and eyes see. Lin Xuan's conversation with his companions hadn’t used any sound transmission techniques, so everyone within earshot heard every word clearly. The significance of having a Tribulation Realm cultivator in their sect was not lost on them.

zhū bān niàn tou zài nǎo hǎi zhōng zhuǎn guò ， yī shí jiān ， yín tóng shào nǚ yǒu xiē  ”” huǎng hū ， tā shèn zhì huái yí lóng shī dì nòng cuò ， zhè dào bú shì bù xiāng xìn tóng mén xiū xiān zhě ， shí zài shì zhè yàng de shì qíng 。 tài bù kě sī yì le 。

诸般念头在脑海中转过，一时间，银瞳少女有些 ””恍惚，她甚至怀疑龙师弟弄错，这倒不是不相信同门修仙者，实在是这样的事情。太不可思议了。

With the Cloud Hidden Sect becoming one of the top-tier sects in Nai Long Realm, its disciples would naturally benefit immensely. Moreover, the sect now faced significant challenges, and Lin Xuan's unexpected return as a Tribulation Realm elder would greatly alter their situation.

sú huà shuō ， ěr tīng wèi xū yǎn jiàn wèi shí ， jì rán xīn zhōng yí huò ， yín tóng shào nǚ zì jǐ jiāng shén shí fàng chū 。

俗话说，耳听为虚眼见为实，既然心中疑惑，银瞳少女自己将神识放出。

In the cultivation world, strength was paramount. A sect with an established Tribulation Realm elder dared not be underestimated or slighted.

lín xuān zì rán yě méi yǒu yǐn cáng xiū wèi de yì tú ， qiáng dà de líng lì zài jīng mài zhōng huǎn huǎn liú tǎng zhe 。

林轩自然也没有隐藏修为的意图，强大的灵力在经脉中缓缓流淌着。

Cheers erupted all around, enveloping the Cloud Hidden Sect in joy.

shēn bù kě cè ！

深不可测！

"Junior Brother Lin, no, Senior Lin..."

zhēn shì dù jié qī ！

真是渡劫期！

Before she could finish her sentence, Lin Xuan interrupted: "Sister Senior, you are mistaken. Since I joined this sect, I have been well cared for by both of us seniors. We've been fellow disciples for thousands of years. Even if I managed to advance through sheer luck, there's no reason for a change in our relationship. If you do not mind, I would still prefer to be called junior brother."

yín tóng shào nǚ yǎn zhōng de yí huò jiàn jiàn tùn qù ， qǔ ér dài zhī de shì kuáng xǐ ：“ lín …… lín shī dì 。 nǐ …… nǐ zhēn de jìn jiē dào dù jié qī le ？”

银瞳少女眼中的疑惑渐渐褪去，取而代之的是狂喜：“林……林师弟。你……你真的进阶到渡劫期了？”

"Senior, this is inappropriate and against the rules. Now that Senior has advanced to the Tribulation Realm, we should treat him as an elder," the silver-eyed girl said with utmost respect.

“ hē hē ， ràng shī xiōng shī jiě jiàn xiào le ， xiǎo dì zhè cì wài chū ， jī yuán qiǎo hé ， rú jīn què shí yǐ jìn jiē dào dù jié qī le 。”

“呵呵，让师兄师姐见笑了，小弟这次外出，机缘巧合，如今确实已进阶到渡劫期了。”

"Senior Brother, while your words are correct, calling me senior brother would make me feel uncomfortable. Why be so rigid?" Lin Xuan smiled calmly.

suī rán zì jǐ yǐ pàn duàn chū zhè ge jié guǒ ， rán ér lín xuān qīn kǒu chéng rèn hái shì ràng lóng xìng shào nián yǔ yín tóng shào nǚ de liǎn shàng lù chū kuáng xǐ zhī sè。

虽然自己已判断出这个结果，然而林轩亲口承认还是让龙姓少年与银瞳少女的脸上露出狂喜之sè。

His words were not just for formality; his expression and tone were sincere to the core.

bù zhǐ shì tā men ， shēn hòu de xiū xiān zhě ， yí gè gè 。 wú bù xǐ xíng yú sè。” bǎi liàn chéng xiān   dì sān qiān líng jiǔ shí zhāng   dù jié qī lǎo zǔ ” xiū xiān zhě shì ěr cōng mù míng de 。 lín xuān sān rén gāng cái de duì huà yòu méi yǒu shǐ yòng chuán yīn zhī shù ， zhǐ yào xiāng gé bú shì tài yuǎn zì rán dōu tīng le gè qīng qīng chǔ chǔ 。 mén zhōng yǒu yī wèi dù jié qī xiū shì yì wèi zhe shén me ， zhè xiē rén qǐ huì bù qīng chǔ 。

不止是他们，身后的修仙者，一个个。无不喜形于sè。”百炼成仙 第三千零九十章 渡劫期老祖”修仙者是耳聪目明的。林轩三人刚才的对话又没有使用传音之术，只要相隔不是太远自然都听了个清清楚楚。门中有一位渡劫期修士意味着什么，这些人岂会不清楚。

"Still..." The silver-eyed boy was at a loss for words. Although he agreed with her, he still felt uneasy.

yún yǐn zōng jiāng chéng wéi nài lóng jiè zuì dǐng jí de zōng mén zhī yī ， ér zuò wéi yún yǐn zōng dì zǐ ， tā men zì rán yě huì huò dé wú jìn de hǎo chù ， gèng bié shuō ， běn mén xiàn zài ， zhèng miàn lín zhe yī jí dà de má fán 。

云隐宗将成为鼐龙界最顶级的宗门之一，而作为云隐宗弟子，他们自然也会获得无尽的好处，更别说，本门现在，正面临着一极大的麻烦。

After all, Tribulation Realm cultivators were rare in Nai Long Realm, and the Cloud Hidden Sect had never seen such an existence since ancient times. To be on familiar terms with a Tribulation Realm elder was daunting, which explained his hesitation.

ér lín xuān de yì wài guī lái ， yòu chéng wéi dù jié qī lǎo zǔ ， suī rán bù gǎn shuō ， nà má fán jiù yíng rèn ér jiě ， dàn zhì shǎo ， yún yǐn zōng miàn duì de jú miàn ， jiāng dà wèi gǎi guān 。

而林轩的意外归来，又成为渡劫期老祖，虽然不敢说，那麻烦就迎刃而解，但至少，云隐宗面对的局面，将大为改观。

"If Senior Brother or Sister does not agree, I believe my presence here would have little meaning, forcing me to leave," Lin Xuan said solemnly.

xiū xiān jiè shì yǐ qiáng zhě wèi zūn de 。

修仙界是以强者为尊的。

This statement shocked everyone present. The silver-eyed boy's mouth dropped in shock. It was the perfect moment for the sect to bask in glory with a Tribulation Realm elder. If he left because of their actions, what face would they have when they met their predecessors after death?

yǒu yī wèi dù jié jí bié lǎo zǔ zuò zhèn de zōng mén jiā zú ， shuí yě bù gǎn xiǎo shì qīng rǔ 。

有一位渡劫级别老祖坐镇的宗门家族，谁也不敢小视轻辱。

In this case, wouldn't he become a pariah in the Cloud Hidden Sect?

yī shí jiān ， huān hū shēng dà zuò 。

一时间，欢呼声大做。

The silver-eyed girl touched her forehead in fear as Lin Xuan's reaction was much greater than expected.

zhěng gè yún yǐn zōng dōu bèi huān xǐ suǒ bāo guǒ 。

整个云隐宗都被欢喜所包裹。

"Ha ha, junior brother, there is no reason to refuse your kind offer. We will treat you as an equal. However, after this, we still need your continued support for the sect," the silver-eyed girl said with a tinkling laugh, defusing the situation.

“ lín shī dì ， bú duì ， yīng gāi shì lín qián bèi ……”

“林师弟，不对，应该是林前辈……”

"That's right, Sister Senior, I have no qualms about it. As the Supreme Elder of the Cloud Hidden Sect, I naturally will look out for its interests. With me around, the sect can rest assured," Lin Xuan replied happily. This outcome was satisfactory; he valued his fellow disciples and did not want to distance himself from them just because he had advanced.

yín tóng shào nǚ huà yīn wèi luò ， què bèi lín xuān dǎ duàn le ：“ shī ” bǎi liàn chéng xiān ” jiě ， nǐ shuō nǎ lǐ huà lái ， lín mǒu zì cóng rù běn zōng yǐ lái ， yì zhí pǒ dé nǐ yǔ shī xiōng de zhào gù ， nǐ wǒ zuò tóng mén yǐ yǒu shù qiān nián ， zhè yī cì suī jiǎo xìng jìn jí ， dàn nǎ yǒu yīn cǐ ér shēng fēn de dào lǐ ， shī jiě ruò shì bù qì ， nǐ hái shì jiào wǒ shī dì 。”

银瞳少女话音未落，却被林轩打断了：“师”百炼成仙”姐，你说哪里话来，林某自从入本宗以来，一直颇得你与师兄的照顾，你我做同门已有数千年，这一次虽侥幸晋级，但哪有因此而生分的道理，师姐若是不弃，你还是叫我师弟。”

"Thank you, junior brother."

“ qián bèi ， zhè me zuò bù tuǒ ， yú lǐ bù hé ， qián bèi jì yǐ jìn jiē dào dù jié qī ， àn zhào xiū xiān jiè de guī jǔ ， wǒ děng zì rán yīng gāi dài zhī yǐ zhǎng bèi zhī lǐ 。” lóng xìng shào nián de biǎo qíng xiǎn de gōng jìng wú bǐ 。

“前辈，这么做不妥，于理不合，前辈既已进阶到渡劫期，按照修仙界的规矩，我等自然应该待之以长辈之礼。”龙姓少年的表情显得恭敬无比。

Though Lin Xuan's words should have brought joy, their smiles were forced. Lin Xuan noticed a lingering gloom in their eyes that they couldn't shake off.

“ shī xiōng ， huà suī shì zhè yàng méi cuò ， dàn nǐ yǔ shī jiě chēng hū wǒ qián bèi què huì ràng lín mǒu jué de hún shēn bù shū fú ， hé bì rú cǐ jū nì bù huà ne ？” lín xuān dàn rán yī xiào de shuō 。

“师兄，话虽是这样没错，但你与师姐称呼我前辈却会让林某觉得浑身不舒服，何必如此拘泥不化呢？”林轩淡然一笑的说。

For an ordinary cultivator, these details might be overlooked, but Lin Xuan was meticulous and perceptive enough to notice without much effort.
