bsp; lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， táo wù guǒ rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， fǎ lì suǒ huàn huà chū lái de bīng qì ， wēi lì jiù rú cǐ páng bó 。
bsp; 林轩瞳孔微缩，梼杌果然非同小可，法力所幻化出来的兵器，威力就如此磅礴。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as Tiaomu proved to be no ordinary opponent. The magical weapon it conjured from its power was incredibly formidable.
bù guò píng jiè zhè yàng de xiǎo zhāo shù ， jiù xiǎng yào dǎng zhù zì jǐ de jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn ， wèi miǎn yě tài tuō dà le 。
不过凭借这样的小招数，就想要挡住自己的九宫须臾剑，未免也太托大了。
However, relying on such minor techniques to block his Nine Palaces Momentary Sword seemed a bit too presumptuous.
lín xuān zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī lěng xiào zhī sè， hún shēn shàng xià líng máng pēn bó ， sī sī shén huī zhàn fàng ér chū ， rú xīng guāng sǎ luò 。
林轩嘴角边露出一丝冷笑之sè，浑身上下灵芒喷薄，丝丝神辉绽放而出，如星光洒落。
A cold smile played at the corners of Lin Xuan’s lips. His body radiated with spiritual light and divine glow, like stars falling into the void.
zhǐ jiàn jiàn máng shǎn shuò tūn tǔ ， zài xū kōng zhōng pán xuán ， jiàn jiàn de ， jìng níng jié chū yī fú tài jí tú 。
只见剑芒闪烁吞吐，在虚空中盘旋，渐渐的，竟凝结出一幅太极图。
The sword's brilliance flickered and swirled in mid-air, gradually coalescing into a Taiji diagram.
nà tài jí tú shì yóu xiān jiàn níng jié ér chéng de ， nèi lǐ yùn yǒu wú shàng fǎ zé 。
那太极图是由仙剑凝结而成的，内里蕴有无上法则。
This Taiji diagram was formed from a celestial sword, imbued with supreme laws within.
suǒ guò zhī chù ， xū kōng dōu zài bēng tā ， jí biàn táo wù ， yě gǎn jué dào le yā lì ， bù guò shù bǎi nián bú jiàn ér yǐ ， zhè kě wù de lín xiǎo zi ， jìng chéng zhǎng dào le rú cǐ jìng dì ， yǔ zì jǐ de běn tǐ ， dōu yǒu le yī zhàn zhī lì 。
所过之处，虚空都在崩塌，即便梼杌，也感觉到了压力，不过数百年不见而已，这可恶的林小子，竟成长到了如此境地，与自己的本体，都有了一战之力。
Wherever it passed, the void crumbled under its might. Even Tiaomu felt pressure. After not seeing each other for just a few centuries, this hateful Lin boy had grown to such an extent that he could now match his essence body in combat.
bù guò xiǎng yíng zì jǐ ， hái shì tài tiān zhēn le
不过想赢自己，还是太天真了
But winning against him was still too naive.
táo wù de yǎn zhōng ， yǒu liǎng diǎn xiōng guāng shè chū ， ér zài zhè yī kè ， tiān shàng fǎng fú zhēn de yǒu xīng chén zhuì luò ， huà wèi yī jù dà de huǒ qiú ， yíng shàng xiān jiàn suǒ huà de tài jí tú 。
梼杌的眼中，有两点凶光shè出，而在这一刻，天上仿佛真的有星辰坠落，化为一巨大的火球，迎上仙剑所化的太极图。
Two vicious sparks of light shot from Tiaomu's eyes as if real stars were falling from the heavens and transforming into a massive fireball. It collided with the Taiji diagram conjured by the celestial sword.
jù xiǎng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， liǎng zhǒng bù tóng de fǎ zé ， hōng rán zhuàng luò ， zhè fāng xiǎo shì jiè ， dùn shí bēng tā diào le ， xìng hǎo zhè lǐ wèi yú huāng mò gǔ dì de zuì shēn chù ， rén jì hǎn zhì ， shēng líng quán wú ， fǒu zé zhè yī jī ， bù zhī dào huì yāng jí duō shǎo wú gū 。
巨响声传入耳朵，两种不同的法则，轰然撞落，这方小世界，顿时崩塌掉了，幸好这里位于荒漠古地的最深处，人迹罕至，生灵全无，否则这一击，不知道会殃及多少无辜。
The deafening sound echoed through the air as two different laws clashed, causing this small world to collapse. Fortunately, they were in the deepest part of an ancient desert, far from human habitation, or countless innocents would have been caught in the blast.
táo wù lián tuì sān bù 。
梼杌连退三步。
Tiaomu retreated three steps, spitting out a foul-smelling blood with each step.
měi tuì yī bù ， dū huì yǒu yī kǒu xīng chòu de xuè yè pēn chū 。
每退一步，都会有一口腥臭的血液喷出。
Clearly, it had taken quite a beating and was now on the back foot.
xiǎn rán gāng gāng yī jī ， tā chī le bù shǎo kǔ ， luò zài xià fēng 。
显然刚刚一击，它吃了不少苦，落在下风。
"Aaah!"
“ áo ！”
“嗷！”
Tiaomu roared in anger. Although not its most secret technique, this was one of its ultimate moves, and such a result left it fuming.
táo wù dà nù ， gāng cái suī rán bú shì tā yā xiāng dǐ de mì shù ， dàn yě shì jué jì zhī yī ， jū rán shì zhè yàng de jié guǒ ， yóu bù dé tā bù bó rán dà nù 。
梼杌大怒，刚才虽然不是他压箱底的秘术，但也是绝技之一，居然是这样的结果，由不得它不勃然大怒。
A loud roar echoed as Tiaomu opened its blood-stained maw. Black light flashed, and a black banner emerged from within.
yī shēng dà hǒu ， xuè pén dà kǒu zhāng kāi ， hēi guāng lián shǎn ， yī gān hēi sè de fān qí yóu lǐ miàn pēn le chū lái 。
一声大吼，血盆大口张开，黑光连闪，一杆黑sè的幡旗由里面喷了出来。
"What is this?"
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted; Tiaomu actually used a treasure.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， táo wù jū rán huì shǐ yòng bǎo wù 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，梼杌居然会使用宝物。
He couldn't identify the material of the black banner, but the yin-cold aura it emitted made his heart race.
zhè hēi sè de fān qí shì shén me cái zhì ， tā yě wú fǎ biàn shí ， dàn suǒ sàn fà chū lái de yīn hán qì xī què lián tā yě yī zhèn xīn jì 。
这黑sè的幡旗是什么材质，他也无法辨识，但所散发出来的yīn寒气息却连他也一阵心悸。
Absolutely formidable. If not careful, he might even fall to his death.
jué duì de fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。 ruò bù xiǎo xīn shèn zhì yǒu kě néng yǔn luò 。
绝对的非同小可。若不小心甚至有可能陨落。
"Go!"
“ qù ！”
“去！”
Lin Xuan pointed forward with a finger. The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword shone brilliantly as the black banner was no ordinary treasure. Lin Xuan wouldn't wait for Tiaomu to unleash it; striking first was always better!
lín xuān yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn chū 。 jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn shén máng dà zuò ， nà hēi sè de fān qí fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， lín xuān dāng rán bú huì shǎ hū hū de děng zhe duì fāng shī zhǎn le 。
林轩一指向前点出。九宫须臾剑神芒大做，那黑sè的幡旗非同小可，林轩当然不会傻乎乎的等着对方施展了。
Lin Xuan once again employed his power to transform swords into threads, and crystal light flickered. The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword had transformed, making its power even more formidable.
xiān xià shǒu wéi qiáng zǒng shì méi cuò ！
先下手为强总是没错！
He aimed to cut through the void, but an incredible scene unfolded. The banner swirled slightly, releasing a burst of demonic light that formed a shield, blocking all the sword threads.
lín xuān zài cì shī zhǎn chū huà jiàn wèi sī de shén tōng ， zhǐ jiàn jīng máng shǎn shuò ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jīn fēi xī bǐ ， huà jiàn wèi sī hòu wēi lì zì rán yě gèng shèng wǎng xī 。
林轩再次施展出化剑为丝的神通，只见晶芒闪烁，九宫须臾剑今非昔比，化剑为丝后威力自然也更胜往昔。
The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword radiated divine energy and was filled with laws, yet it couldn't break free from this insignificant shield.
xū kōng dōu néng zhǎn pò ， lín xuān xiǎng yào jiāng duì fāng de fǎ bǎo pò chú 。
虚空都能斩破，林轩想要将对方的法宝破除。
"This..."
rán ér bù kě sī yì de yí mù chū xiàn le 。 nà fān qí lüè yī fān yǒng ， yī dào mó guāng pēn yǒng ér chū 。
然而不可思议的一幕出现了。那幡旗略一翻涌，一道魔光喷涌而出。
Lin Xuan was genuinely impressed. The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword approached the level of a celestial treasure, its power unmatched, capable of slicing through the void and breaking anything in its path. Yet, it failed to penetrate the shield.
huà wèi yí miàn dùn pái ， jiāng wàn qiān jiàn sī dǎng zài le wài miàn 。
化为一面盾牌，将万千剑丝挡在了外面。
Tiaomu truly proved formidable; he would need to exhaust all his powers to destroy this monster.
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn ruì qì wàn qiān ， fǎ zé zhī lì mí màn ， què bèi nà bù qǐ yǎn de dùn pái fēng dǔ ， wán quán bù néng pò jìn ér chū 。
九宫须臾剑瑞气万千，法则之力弥漫，却被那不起眼的盾牌封堵，完全不能破禁而出。
Lin Xuan no longer hesitated. He flicked his sleeves and summoned another treasure—a simple scroll with green light flashing from its surface.
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
Celestial Sword Diagram!
lín xuān zhēn de yǒu xiē dòng róng 。 jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn yǐ jiē jìn le xiān fǔ qí zhēn de pǐn jí ， wēi lì wú bǐ ， lián xū kōng dōu néng dòng pò ， wú wù bù zhǎn ， jū rán pò bù liǎo yǎn qián de dùn pái 。
林轩真的有些动容。九宫须臾剑已接近了仙府奇珍的品级，威力无比，连虚空都能洞破，无物不斩，居然破不了眼前的盾牌。
This was a newly bornprimordial spirit treasure, emitting divine energy without needing to be activated. The Dao's presence flowed from it.
táo wù ， guǒ rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， kàn lái bù shén tōng jǐn chū ， wú fǎ miè shā yǎn qián de guài wù 。
梼杌，果然非同小可，看来不神通尽出，无法灭杀眼前的怪物。
It was an unparalleled divine artifact!
lín xuān bù gǎn zài cáng zhuō 。 xiù páo yī fú 。 yòu jì qǐ le yī jiàn bǎo wù 。
林轩不敢再藏拙。袖袍一拂。又祭起了一件宝物。
"Primordial Spirit Treasure!"
nà shì yī fú gǔ piáo de huà zhóu ， biǎo miàn yǒu cuì máng shǎn dòng 。 sī sī shén huī zhàn fàng ér chū 。
那是一幅古朴的画轴，表面有翠芒闪动。丝丝神辉绽放而出。
Tiaomu’s eyes widened in shock.
xiān jiàn tú ！
仙剑图！
As an ancient creature with countless years of existence, its experience was unmatched.
zhè shì xīn jìn dàn shēng de xiān tiān zhī wù ， bù yòng qū shǐ ， biǎo miàn jiù yǒu sī sī fǎ zé zhī lì zhàn fàng ér chū ， dào de qì xī zài qí biǎo miàn liú zhuǎn pēn bó 。
这是新近诞生的先天之物，不用驱使，表面就有丝丝法则之力绽放而出，道的气息在其表面流转喷薄。
The Celestial Sword Diagram had just appeared for the first time, but the Dao's presence couldn't be deceived; it perfectly aligned with natural laws. This was undoubtedly a primordial spirit treasure.
cǐ nǎi wú shàng shén wù ！
此乃无上神物！
How could this be?
“ xiān tiān líng bǎo ！”
“先天灵宝！”
Primordial Spirit Treasures were incomparably powerful and passed down from true immortals. Even late-stage cultivators who successfully traversed their tribulations considered themselves lucky to see one, let alone possess one.
táo wù dèng dà le yǎn zhū 。
梼杌瞪大了眼珠。
This Lin boy might have some power, but he was still an early-stage existence; how could he possibly own such a divine artifact?
zuò wèi huó le bù zhī duō shǎo suì yuè de lǎo guài wù ， tā de jiàn shí fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
做为活了不知多少岁月的老怪物，它的见识非同小可。
Tiaomu was shocked and doubtful, but it no longer mattered. It showed no fear, instead exuding a mocking expression: "You dare challenge me with a Primordial Spirit Treasure as your backing? Little boy, you've calculated everything, yet you still fell for the swan's eye. A Primordial Spirit Treasure is indeed incredibly powerful, but possessing such a treasure doesn't mean invincibility. Let this master cut you down."
xiān jiàn tú shì dì yī cì chū shì ， rán ér dào de qì xī shì piàn bù liǎo rén de ， yǔ zì rán fǎ zé xiāng hé ， zhè jué duì shì xiān tiān líng wù 。
仙剑图是第一次出世，然而道的气息是骗不了人的，与自然法则相合，这绝对是先天灵物。
"Such arrogance!"
zěn me kě néng ne ？
怎么可能呢？
The other’s words were truly extremely presumptuous. But now that he was here, there could be no retreat.
xiān tiān líng bǎo ， wēi lì wú yǐ lún bǐ ， nǎi shì zhēn xiān jiè liú chuán xià lái de dōng xī ， jiù suàn shì dù jié hòu qī de dà néng xiū xiān zhě ， jiàn shàng yí miàn yǐ suàn yùn qì bù cuò ， gèng bú yào shuō yōng yǒu le 。
先天灵宝，威力无以伦比，乃是真仙界流传下来的东西，就算是渡劫后期的大能修仙者，见上一面已算运气不错，更不要说拥有了。
Moreover, he knew his own powers best; with so many Primordial Spirit Treasures, even facing an ancient creature at late-stage tribulation, he still had the power to fight back. Tiaomu might be outrageous, but it hadn't reached such a point yet.
zhè lín xiǎo zi zài shén tōng bù sú ， yě bù guò shì chū qī cún zài bà le ， zěn me kě néng yōng yǒu zhè yàng de shén wù ？
这林小子再神通不俗，也不过是初期存在罢了，怎么可能拥有这样的神物？
Various thoughts raced through Lin Xuan's mind as he weighed his options. But now, there was no time for hesitation. Lin Xuan’s hands traced mysterious patterns in mid-air, releasing spiritual light and surging power like a dam breaking. This energy poured into the treasures before him.
táo wù xīn zhōng jīng yí ， dàn xiàn zài zài xiǎng zhè xiē yě méi yǒu yì yì 。
梼杌心中惊疑，但现在再想这些也没有意义。
The Celestial Sword Diagram unfolded, radiating countless sword intents.
tā de liǎn shàng bìng wú jù yì ， fǎn ér yǒu jǐ fēn cháo fěng de biǎo qíng tòu chū ：“ guài shuō bù dé gǎn tiǎo zhàn wǒ ， yǒu xiān tiān líng bǎo zuò dǐ qì ， bù guò xiǎo jiā huo ， nǐ qiān suàn wàn suàn ， yī jiù bèi yàn zhuó le yǎn ， xiān tiān líng bǎo gù rán wēi lì wú pǐ ， dàn chí yǒu zhè me yī jiàn bǎo wù ， bìng bù dài biǎo tiān xià wú dí ， kàn běn zūn lái zhǎn nǐ 。”
它的脸上并无惧意，反而有几分嘲讽的表情透出：“怪说不得敢挑战我，有先天灵宝做底气，不过小家伙，你千算万算，依旧被雁啄了眼，先天灵宝顾然威力无匹，但持有这么一件宝物，并不代表天下无敌，看本尊来斩你。”
Correct, sword intents!
“ hǎo dà de kǒu qì ！”
“好大的口气！”
In that moment, he felt the laws of the Dao, aligning with nature. Primordial Spirit Treasures truly were incomparably powerful; anything else would pale in comparison.
duì fāng de yán yǔ ， dàng zhēn shì xiāo zhāng yǐ jí ， dàn shì yǐ zhì cǐ ， nǎ lǐ hái néng tuì bì 。
对方的言语，当真是嚣张以极，但事已至此，哪里还能退避。
A green glow flickered on the opened scroll.
hé kuàng zì jǐ de shén tōng ， zì jǐ zuì qīng chǔ ， chí yǒu nà me duō xiān tiān líng wù ， jiù suàn shì miàn duì dù jié hòu qī de lǎo guài wù ， yě wèi shǐ méi yǒu yī zhàn zhī lì ， táo wù zài lí pǔ ， zǒng hái méi yǒu dào nà ge dì bù 。
何况自己的神通，自己最清楚，持有那么多先天灵物，就算是面对渡劫后期的老怪物，也未始没有一战之力，梼杌再离谱，总还没有到那个地步。
Nine peaks of varying sizes stood out prominently.
gè zhǒng niàn tou zài xīn zhōng rú diàn guāng huǒ shí bān zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān zài quán héng lì bì ， dàn xiàn zài yǐ róng bù dé tā chí yí ， lín xuān shuāng shǒu zài xū kōng zhōng huá guò shén mì de guǐ jì ， diǎn diǎn líng máng sǎ luò ， fǎ lì pēng pài ， rú jué dī zhī shuǐ ， xiōng yǒng ér lái ， mò rù shēn qián de bǎo wù lǐ miàn 。
各种念头在心中如电光火石般转过，林轩在权衡利弊，但现在已容不得他迟疑，林轩双手在虚空中划过神秘的轨迹，点点灵芒洒落，法力澎湃，如决堤之水，汹涌而来，没入身前的宝物里面。
Indeed, nine—originally, there had been twelve peaks on the Golden Sun Mountain Diagram, but some had vanished.
xiān jiàn tú zhǎn kāi ， wú qióng de jiàn yì cóng lǐ miàn chuān tòu chū lái 。
仙剑图展开，无穷的剑意从里面穿透出来。
These peaks now appeared lush and verdant with vibrant life.
méi cuò ， jiàn yì ！
没错，剑意！
The scenery was breathtaking.
zài nà yī kè ， fǎng fú tǐ huì dào le dà dào de fǎ zé ， yǔ zì rán xiāng hé ， xiān tiān líng bǎo guǒ rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， cǐ wù yī chū ， shén me bǎo bèi dōu yào wèi zhī shī sè。
在那一刻，仿佛体会到了大道的法则，与自然相合，先天灵宝果然非同小可，此物一出，什么宝贝都要为之失sè。
The three-footed golden sun disappeared, replaced by boundless sword intents that seemed to encompass the entire world.
wéi jiàn yī tuán cuì máng zài dǎ kāi de huà zhóu shàng shǎn dòng bù yǐ 。
唯见一团翠芒在打开的画轴上闪动不已。
"Quickly!"
jiǔ zuò dà xiǎo bù yī de shān fēng xiǎn yǎn yǐ jí 。
九座大小不一的山峰显眼以极。
Lin Xuan pointed his finger forward. Divine light shone as the nine divine mountains emerged, surging with laws, collapsing the void.
méi cuò ， jiǔ zuò ， yuán běn shān yuè jīn wū tú shàng de shān fēng yī gòng yǒu shí èr zuò zhī duō ， rú jīn què píng kōng shǎo le yī xiē 。
没错，九座，原本山岳金乌图上的山峰一共有十二座之多，如今却凭空少了一些。
However, this wasn't the most terrifying part.
ér qiě zhè xiē shān fēng quán dōu biàn dé cāng cuì bì lǜ ， chōng mǎn le bó bó de shēng jī 。
而且这些山峰全都变得苍翠碧绿，充满了勃勃的生机。
Mysterious heavenly sounds appeared like great chimes, causing even the primordial energy of heaven and earth to yield. Light beams shot out from the peaks.
fēng jǐng xiù měi wú bǐ 。
风景秀美无比。
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet—each beam had a different color.
sān zú jīn wū bú jiàn le zōng jì ， qǔ ér dài zhī de shì wú jìn de jiàn yì ， fǎng fú jiāng tiān dì dōu yào náng kuò jìn qù 。
三足金乌不见了踪迹，取而代之的是无尽的剑意，仿佛将天地都要囊括进去。
Then, colorful light clouds floated, radiating divine energy. Each cloud transformed into several celestial swords.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
Their shapes varied, their sizes differing, but each sword was terrifying, imbued with Dao's presence and flowing with laws.
lín xuān yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn qù 。
林轩一指向前点去。
Primordial Spirit Treasures were incomparably powerful; the sword beams numbered in the thousands, enough to cut down even an immortal sect. Tiaomu’s eyes showed a serious expression but no fear as it opened its blood-stained maw, spewing essence qi. Ancient incantations echoed through the heavens.
shén máng dà zuò ， nà jiǔ zuò shén shān fú xiàn ér chū ， yī gǔ gǔ fǎ zé zhī lì pēng pài xiōng yǒng ， xū kōng tā xiàn zhuì luò ， xiān tiān líng bǎo guǒ rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
神芒大做，那九座神山浮现而出，一股股法则之力澎湃汹涌，虚空塌陷坠落，先天灵宝果然非同小可。
Its demonic power was unmatched. Facing such a Primordial Spirit Treasure, this creature intended to withstand the attack.
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as Tiaomu proved to be no ordinary opponent. The magical weapon it conjured from its power was incredibly formidable.
However, relying on such minor techniques to block his Nine Palaces Momentary Sword seemed a bit too presumptuous.
A cold smile played at the corners of Lin Xuan’s lips. His body radiated with spiritual light and divine glow, like stars falling into the void.
The sword's brilliance flickered and swirled in mid-air, gradually coalescing into a Taiji diagram.
"Fall!"
This Taiji diagram was formed from a celestial sword, imbued with supreme laws within.
Wherever it passed, the void crumbled under its might. Even Tiaomu felt pressure. After not seeing each other for just a few centuries, this hateful Lin boy had grown to such an extent that he could now match his essence body in combat.
But winning against him was still too naive.
Two vicious sparks of light shot from Tiaomu's eyes as if real stars were falling from the heavens and transforming into a massive fireball. It collided with the Taiji diagram conjured by the celestial sword.
Boom!
The deafening sound echoed through the air as two different laws clashed, causing this small world to collapse. Fortunately, they were in the deepest part of an ancient desert, far from human habitation, or countless innocents would have been caught in the blast.
Pang…
Tiaomu retreated three steps, spitting out a foul-smelling blood with each step.

"Aaah!"
Tiaomu roared in anger. Although not its most secret technique, this was one of its ultimate moves, and such a result left it fuming.

"What is this?"
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted; Tiaomu actually used a treasure.
He couldn't identify the material of the black banner, but the yin-cold aura it emitted made his heart race.
Absolutely formidable. If not careful, he might even fall to his death.

Lin Xuan pointed forward with a finger. The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword shone brilliantly as the black banner was no ordinary treasure. Lin Xuan wouldn't wait for Tiaomu to unleash it; striking first was always better!
Lin Xuan once again employed his power to transform swords into threads, and crystal light flickered. The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword had transformed, making its power even more formidable.
