"Phew!"
lín xuān sōng le kǒu qì ， zài cì jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， yòu shī zhǎn chū tiān fèng shén mù ， zài zhè fù jìn xì xì sōu suǒ ， què rèn fēn háo cán liú yě wú ， nà jiè miàn tōng dào yǐ bèi chè dǐ fēng yìn zhù le 。
林轩松了口气，再次将神识放出，又施展出天凤神目，在这附近细细搜索，确认分毫残留也无，那界面通道已被彻底封印住了。
Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief as he once again released his spirit sense and used the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye to carefully search around, confirming that there was no trace left. The interface channel had been completely sealed off.
lín xuān de liǎn shàng bù yóu de liú lù chū jǐ fēn xǐ sè， shí lì dào le tā zhè ge děng jí ， fàng yǎn sān jiè ， néng lìng qí gù jì de cún zài yě jué duì bù duō ， dàn yù wài tiān mó kěn dìng huì shì qí zhōng yí gè 。
林轩的脸上不由得流露出几分喜sè，实力到了他这个等级，放眼三界，能令其顾忌的存在也绝对不多，但域外天魔肯定会是其中一个。
A hint of joy appeared on Lin Xuan's face. With his current strength, few entities in the Three Realms could pose a threat to him. However, the域外天魔 would definitely be one of them.
zhè xiē jiā huo tài shén mì le ， lín xuān jī yuán qiǎo hé ， suī rán yě miè shā le shù gè ， dàn gěi tā de yìn xiàng ， yě fēi cháng shēn kè ， rú guǒ kě yǐ xuǎn zé ， lín xuān jué bú huì zhǔ dòng zhāo rě 。
这些家伙太神秘了，林轩机缘巧合，虽然也灭杀了数个，但给他的印象，也非常深刻，如果可以选择，林轩绝不会主动招惹。
These creatures were too mysterious for Lin Xuan. Although he had managed to kill several by chance, their presence left a deep impression on him. If given the choice, Lin Xuan would never have provoked them.
lín xuān shèn zhì yǐn yǐn yǒu yī xiē cāi cè ， shàng gǔ zhī shí ， ā xiū luó wáng zhī suǒ yǐ huì dài lǐng yīn sī guǐ wù ， jiāng líng jiè shā yí gè xuè liú chéng hé ， duō bàn jiù yǒu tiān wài mó jūn cān yù zài qí zhōng 。
林轩甚至隐隐有一些猜测，上古之时，阿修罗王之所以会带领yīn司鬼物，将灵界杀一个血流成河，多半就有天外魔君参与在其中。
Lin Xuan even had some vague suspicions that during ancient times, when the Asura King led阴司鬼物 into the Spirit Realm, causing rivers of blood to flow, it was likely that 天外魔君 had played a role in this.
zhǐ bù guò jiū jìng qǐ le shén me zuò yòng què bù hǎo shuō ， yī qiè dōu zhǐ shì lín xuān zì jǐ de chuǎi mó 。
只不过究竟起了什么作用却不好说，一切都只是林轩自己的揣摩。
However, just how much they contributed was uncertain. All these were merely Lin Xuan's speculations.
jiè miàn tōng dào yǐ guī yú xū wú ， yuán běn lín xuān yīng gāi lí kāi cǐ chù ， rán ér tā gāng gāng zhuǎn guò shēn tǐ ， liǎn shàng què yòu lù chū yī sī yì sè：. .
界面通道已归于虚无，原本林轩应该离开此处，然而他刚刚转过身体，脸上却又露出一丝异sè：. .
The interface channel had returned to nothingness. Lin Xuan should have left immediately, but as he turned his body, an unusual expression appeared on his face:
“ hēng ， jū rán hái yǒu jǐ dào mó niàn cán liú ， guǐ guǐ suì suì de yǐn cáng yòu yǒu shén me yòng chǔ ， lín mǒu zài cǐ ， nǐ men yǐ wéi hái yǒu jī huì mán tiān guò hǎi me ？”
“哼，居然还有几道魔念残留，鬼鬼祟祟的隐藏又有什么用处，林某在此，你们以为还有机会瞒天过海么？”
"Hmph! There are still several lingering魔念, hiding like cowards. Do you think you can deceive me? Here I am, do you think there's any chance for you to escape my notice?"
shuō wán zhè huà ， lín xuān huǎn huǎn zhuǎn guò shēn tǐ ， dīng xiàng zuǒ cè kōng wú yì rén de mǒu chù ， yǎn zhōng hán máng shǎn shuò ， yǐn yǐn yǒu shā qì shì fàng ér chū 。
说完这话，林轩缓缓转过身体，盯向左侧空无一人的某处，眼中寒芒闪烁，隐隐有杀气释放而出。
After saying this, Lin Xuan slowly turned around and stared at a spot in the left side of his vision where no one was present. His eyes flashed with cold light as if harboring some hidden intent.
ér tā huà yīn wèi luò ， yuán běn píng jìng de kōng qì ， tū rán xiàng bèi pō jìn le yī piáo shuǐ de yóu guō ， shēn qián shí yú zhàng yuǎn chù de yī piàn kōng jiān ， yǐ ròu yǎn kě jiàn de fú dù ， xùn sù bō dòng qǐ lái le 。
而他话音未落，原本平静的空气，突然像被泼进了一瓢水的油锅，身前十余丈远处的一片空间，以肉眼可见的幅度，迅速波动起来了。
Before he could finish speaking, the previously calm air suddenly seemed to have been poured into an oil pot, causing ripples to spread out from several dozen feet away. A crack appeared, resembling a torn piece of cloth.
fǎng fú bù jǐn bèi sī pò ， yī dào chǐ xǔ zhǎng de liè wén chū xiàn le 。
仿佛布锦被撕破，一道尺许长的裂纹出现了。
Five black strands emerged from the crack and intertwined with each other, transforming into a grotesque ghost face in the flickering darkness.
suí hòu sōu sōu shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
随后嗖嗖声传入耳朵。
With its greenish-white face and sharp teeth, it was extremely terrifying as it rushed towards Lin Xuan at an unbelievable speed.
cóng nà liè fèng zhōng fēi chū wǔ dào hēi qì ， yī shǎn ， suí hòu hù xiāng jiū chán ， hēi guāng zhī zhōng ， jū rán huà wèi le yī zhēng níng yì cháng de guǐ liǎn 。
从那裂缝中飞出五道黑气，一闪，随后互相纠缠，黑光之中，居然化为了一狰狞异常的鬼脸。
Possession!
qīng miàn liáo yá ， shí fēn kě bù ， yǐ lìng rén chēng mù jié shé de sù dù ， xiàng lín xuān pū guò lái le 。
青面獠牙，十分可怖，以令人瞠目结舌的速度，像林轩扑过来了。
These域外魔念 attempted to possess him. Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh bitterly. Should he call them reckless or overconfident?
zhè jǐ dào yù wài mó niàn hé lì ， jū rán xiǎng yào duó shě zì jǐ 。 lín xuān yǒu xiē kū xiào bù dé 。 gāi shuō tā men dǎn dà wàng wéi ， hái shì bù zì liàng lì ？
这几道域外魔念合力，居然想要夺舍自己。林轩有些哭笑不得。该说它们胆大妄为，还是不自量力？
A mocking expression appeared on Lin Xuan's face. The magic threads of the域外天魔 were incredibly powerful against ordinary cultivators, but for him, they were mere ants. Attempting to possess him was sheer foolishness.
“ chǔn huò ！”
“蠢货！”
Seeing the ghost face rushing towards him, Lin Xuan didn't dodge or avoid it. A sneer appeared on his face as he suddenly rubbed his hands together.
lín xuān de liǎn shàng ， lù chū yī lǚ jī cháo zhī sè， yù wài tiān mó de mó niàn ， duì yú pǔ tōng xiū xiān zhě ， zì rán shì qiáng dà yǐ jí ， dàn tā men jì rán shàng wèi duó shě dào ròu qū 。 duì zì jǐ ér yán ， jiù bù guò shì lóu yǐ 。
林轩的脸上，露出一缕讥嘲之sè，域外天魔的魔念，对于普通修仙者，自然是强大以极，但他们既然尚未夺舍到肉躯。对自己而言，就不过是蝼蚁。
Swoosh!
zhì yú xiǎng yào duó shě zì jǐ ， nà jiǎn zhí shì yú bù kě jí 。
至于想要夺舍自己，那简直是愚不可及。
Thunderous roars echoed in the sky as a thick black lightning bolt descended upon the enemy with great force.
jiàn nà guǐ liǎn pū xiàng zì jǐ ， lín xuān bù shǎn bù bì ， liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī lěng xiào zhī sè， tū rán shuāng shǒu yī cuō 。
见那鬼脸扑向自己，林轩不闪不避，脸上闪过一丝冷笑之sè，突然双手一搓。
The sudden change was beyond what the magic threads of the域外天魔 expected, and they couldn't avoid it. A scream filled the air as the lightning struck them.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò 。 léi míng shēng zhà qǐ ， tiān kōng zhī zhōng chū xiàn le yī dào ér bì cū de yǒu hēi diàn hú ， hěn hěn de cháo zhe duì fāng jī luò 。
随着他的动作。雷鸣声乍起，天空之中出现了一道儿臂粗的黝黑电弧，狠狠的朝着对方击落。
The black lightning enveloped the ghost face entirely. It had no place to hide. The Illusory Divine Thunder wasn't just a means to defile cultivator's treasures; it could also counteract with poison, causing unexpected damage to the域外天魔.
rú cǐ biàn gù ， xiǎn rán dà chū nà yù wài mó niàn suǒ huà guǐ liǎn de yù liào ， lái bù jí duǒ ， cǎn jiào shēng zhōng ， yī xià zi bèi nà shǎn diàn jī zhòng 。
如此变故，显然大出那域外魔念所化鬼脸的预料，来不及躲，惨叫声中，一下子被那闪电击中。
A single mistake led to everything going wrong. If the域外天魔 were here, Lin Xuan would have had to deal with them, but these mere magic threads that hadn't possessed his body yet weren't a match for him. With his intent against theirs, they were easily eliminated without much effort.
cī lā ……
刺啦……
It seemed this matter was now settled.
yǒu hēi sè de diàn hú ， zhěng gè jiāng guǐ liǎn bāo guǒ 。 tā duǒ wú kě duǒ 。 huàn yīn shén léi ， kě bù jǐn jǐn jù yǒu wū huì xiū shì fǎ bǎo de xiào guǒ 。 hái néng yǐ dú gōng dú ， duì yú yù wài tiān mó ， yǒu zhe chū rén yì biǎo de shā shāng lì de 。
黝黑sè的电弧，整个将鬼脸包裹。它躲无可躲。幻yīn神雷，可不仅仅具有污秽修士法宝的效果。还能以毒攻毒，对于域外天魔，有着出人意表的杀伤力的。
However, just as he thought so, a faint black strand suddenly flew towards Lin Xuan at an unbelievable speed.
yī zhe bù shèn mǎn pán jiē shū ， ruò shì yù wài tiān mó jià lín cǐ chù ， lín xuān hái yào pí yú yìng fù ， dàn qū qū jǐ dào mó niàn ér yǐ ， shàng wèi duó shě ， běn jiù bú shì lín xuān de duì shǒu ， zài jiā shàng yǐ yǒu xīn suàn wú yì ， qīng sōng bèi tā miè chú ， yě bù suàn yǒu shén me xī qí zhī chù 。
一着不慎满盘皆输，若是域外天魔驾临此处，林轩还要疲于应付，但区区几道魔念而已，尚未夺舍，本就不是林轩的对手，再加上以有心算无意，轻松被他灭除，也不算有什么稀奇之处。
Possession!
cǐ shì sì hū yǐ jīng gào yí duàn luò 。
此事似乎已经告一段落。
For the magic threads, this move was undoubtedly the most useful and intimidating.
rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ， yī lǚ dàn ruò bú jiàn de hēi qì ， tū rán yǐ lìng rén chēng mù jié shé de sù dù ， xiàng lín xuān fēi guò lái le 。
然而就在这时，一缕淡若不见的黑气，突然以令人瞠目结舌的速度，像林轩飞过来了。
"Bad luck!"
duó shě ！
夺舍！
Even wise men could make mistakes. Although Lin Xuan's spirit sense was formidable, his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye was a rare technique, but it wasn't infallible. The域外天魔 were too cunning; there were six strands in total, five of them hidden, launching an ambush when he thought they were safe.
duì mó niàn lái shuō ， zhè yī zhāo wú yí shì zuì yǒu yòng chù ， yě zuì yǒu wēi shè lì de zhāo shù 。
对魔念来说，这一招无疑是最有用处，也最有威慑力的招数。
Even with his meticulous thoughts, he fell into their trap.
“ bù hǎo ！”
“不好！”
When Lin Xuan realized something was wrong, the magic thread was only a foot away from him. At such close range, even spatial laws couldn't change anything.
zhì zhě qiān lǜ bì yǒu yī shī ， lín xuān de shén niàn ， gù rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， tiān fèng shén mù ， gèng shì shǎo yǒu de qí gōng yì shù ， dàn yě bú shì shuō ， jiù néng kàn pò shì jiān yī qiè yǐn nì zhī shù 。
智者千虑必有一失，林轩的神念，固然非同小可，天凤神目，更是少有的奇功异术，但也不是说，就能看破世间一切隐匿之术。
Seeing it about to enter his skull, Lin Xuan raised his hand to block it.
yù wài tiān mó tài jiǎo huá le ， mó niàn jū rán yī gòng yǒu liù shù zhī duō ， wǔ míng yī àn ， zài zì jǐ yǐ wéi ān quán de shí hòu zhòu rán fā nàn 。
域外天魔太狡猾了，魔念居然一共有六束之多，五名一暗，在自己以为安全的时候骤然发难。
Pfft...
jí biàn yǐ lín xuān xīn sī zhī shèn mì yě bǎ wò bú zhù ， luò rù tā de suàn jì zhōng le 。
即便以林轩心思之慎密也把握不住，落入他的算计中了。
The magic thread didn't have time to change direction and entered through his palm.
dāng fā xiàn bù tuǒ ， nà mó niàn jù lí tā yǐ bù guò chǐ xǔ ， zhè me jìn de jù lí ， jiù suàn shì kōng jiān fǎ zé ， dōu lái bù jí gǎi biàn shén me 。
当发现不妥，那魔念距离他已不过尺许，这么近的距离，就算是空间法则，都来不及改变什么。
A black strand of energy moved along his arm as the creature refused to give up. Although it hadn't managed to enter his head, it still wanted to possess his body.
yǎn kàn duì fāng jiù yào zuān rù zì jǐ de tóu lú ， lín xuān jǔ shǒu dǎng zhù 。
眼看对方就要钻入自己的头颅，林轩举手挡住。
"Die!"
“ pū ……”
“噗……”
Lin Xuan's face turned pale as he used his fingers like a sword and struck at his right hand while powerful magical energy flowed through his meridians.
nà mó niàn yě lái bù jí gǎi biàn fāng xiàng shén me ， jiāng cuò jiù cuò ， cóng lín xuān de shǒu xīn zuān jìn qù le 。
那魔念也来不及改变方向什么，将错就错，从林轩的手心钻进去了。
Soon, a "pop" sound echoed in the air. The black strand was forced out by Lin Xuan.
suí hòu yī lǚ hēi qì yán zhe shǒu bì bù duàn yóu yí ， zhè jiā huo méi yǒu fàng qì ， suī rán méi néng zuān jìn lín xuān de tóu lú ， yī jiù xiǎng yào duó shě tā de shēn tǐ 。
随后一缕黑气沿着手臂不断游移，这家伙没有放弃，虽然没能钻进林轩的头颅，依旧想要夺舍他的身体。
Like a spirit snake, it tried to escape through space but was hated so much that Lin Xuan wouldn't let it succeed. With a wave of his hand, a burst of Illusory Divine Thunder flew out and enveloped the black strand.
“ zhǎo sǐ ！”
“找死！”
The lightning became several times more intense than before, quickly reducing it to ashes.
lín xuān de liǎn sè， nán kàn wú bǐ ， zuǒ shǒu bìng zhǐ rú jiàn ， kuài rú shǎn diàn xiàng yòu shǒu diǎn qù ， tóng shí ， qiáng dà de fǎ lì ， yán zhe jīng mài yùn zhuàn bù yǐ 。
林轩的脸sè，难看无比，左手并指如剑，快如闪电像右手点去，同时，强大的法力，沿着经脉运转不已。
"Phew!"
hěn kuài ，“ bō ” yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà hēi qì bèi lín xuān bī chū lái le 。
很快，“啵”一声传入耳朵，那黑气被林轩逼出来了。
Lin Xuan sighed in relief with a look of lingering fear on his face.
rú yī tiáo líng shé ， jū rán sī kāi kōng jiān xiǎng yào táo tuō ， lín xuān hèn zhī rù gǔ ， zì rán bú huì ràng tā rú yì le ， shǒu yī fú ， pī lǐ pā lā shēng dà zuò ， huàn yīn shén léi fēi lüè ér chū ， jiāng zhè lǚ hēi qì lǒng zhào zhù 。
如一条灵蛇，居然撕开空间想要逃脱，林轩恨之入骨，自然不会让他如意了，手一拂，噼里啪啦声大做，幻yīn神雷飞掠而出，将这缕黑气笼罩住。
Just narrowly escaped disaster. Although the struggle was brief, it was indeed a matter of life and death.
diàn guāng bǐ gāng gāng qiáng liè le shù bèi yǒu yú ， hěn kuài jiù jiāng qí huà wèi le huī jìn 。
电光比刚刚强烈了数倍有余，很快就将其化为了灰烬。
If he had truly been possessed, Lin Xuan couldn't even imagine the consequences.
“ hū ！”
“呼！”
With this thought, he quickly used the internal vision technique to check his body.
lín xuān sōng le kǒu qì ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì xīn yǒu yú jì zhī sè。
林轩松了口气，脸上满是心有余悸之sè。
Fortunately, everything was as usual. After checking meticulously, Lin Xuan found no signs of any residual magic threads or other issues. The enemy had indeed been completely eliminated.
gāng gāng hǎo xiǎn ， suī rán zhēng dòu zhǐ zài qǐng kè jiān ， dàn què shì míng fù qí shí de shēng sǐ yī xiàn 。
刚刚好险，虽然争斗只在顷刻间，但却是名副其实的生死一线。
After confirming there were no further problems in the forest, Lin Xuan transformed into a streak of light and left.
jiǎ rú zhēn bèi duì fāng duó shě ， hòu guǒ lín xuān dōu bù gǎn xiǎng le 。
假如真被对方夺舍，后果林轩都不敢想了。
...
yī niàn zhì cǐ ， tā máng shī zhǎn nèi shì shù ， chá kàn qǐ zì jǐ tǐ nèi de qíng xíng lái le 。
一念至此，他忙施展内视术，查看起自己体内的情形来了。
Meanwhile, unknown distances away in another interface realm.
hǎo zài yī qiè rú gù ， lín xuān chá kàn dé zǐ xì yǐ jí ， yī jiù méi yǒu fā xiàn rèn hé bù tuǒ ， huò zhě nà mó niàn de cán liú zhī wù ， duì fāng què shí yǐ jīng bèi miè shā gān jìng le 。
好在一切如故，林轩查看得仔细以极，依旧没有发现任何不妥，或者那魔念的残留之物，对方确实已经被灭杀干净了。
The area was hazy, resembling the moment when chaos first emerged.
suí hòu lín xuān yòu chá kàn le yī xià zhè shù lín ， què dìng zài méi yǒu bù tuǒ zhī hòu ， cái zhōng yú huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng ， lí kāi zhè lǐ le 。
随后林轩又查看了一下这树林，确定再没有不妥之后，才终于化为一道惊虹，离开这里了。
A faint black strand suddenly shot out, barely an inch long. It was obvious that it was just a fragment.
……
……
After vanishing into the chaos, it disappeared entirely.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， zài lí cǐ bù zhī dào duō yuǎn de yī wèi zhī jiè miàn lǐ 。
与此同时，在离此不知道多远的一未知界面里。
However, shortly after, the chaos began to churn with a hint of anger. A roar like that of a wild beast echoed in his ears.
zhè lǐ yī piàn méng lóng ， fǎng fú hùn dùn chū kāi de yī kè 。
这里一片朦胧，仿佛混沌初开的一刻。
"Virtuous King of Nothingness, why are you angry?" A voice, ancient and distant, yet close as if right beside him, asked.
tū rán yī dào dàn ruò bú jiàn de hēi qì shǎn shè ér chū ， nà hēi qì zhǎng bù guò cùn xǔ ， yī yǎn wàng qù ， jiù zhī dào jǐn jǐn shì yī lǚ suì piàn ér yǐ 。
突然一道淡若不见的黑气闪shè而出，那黑气长不过寸许，一眼望去，就知道仅仅是一缕碎片而已。
"My few magic threads have been destroyed; it's a total loss," the voice from within the chaos sounded angry.
zài mò rù hùn dùn zhī hòu ， jiù xiāo shī bú jiàn le 。
在没入混沌之后，就消失不见了。
"A few strands of remote magic threads were just for exploration. Losing them isn't significant. There's no need to be so agitated," another ethereal voice joined in. This voice was incredibly pleasant, far surpassing any music, as if spoken by a woman.
rán ér piàn kè hòu ， nà hùn dùn zhī zhōng ， què yǒu mí wù fān yǒng ， dài zhe jǐ fēn jīng nù ， jiē zhe fǎng fú yě shòu sī hǒu bān de jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
然而片刻后，那混沌之中，却有迷雾翻涌，带着几分惊怒，接着仿佛野兽嘶吼般的巨响传入耳朵。
"Hmph, Bailing, it's easy for you to say. The lost magic threads were not just any strands; they can't be ignored," the Virtuous King of Nothingness's voice was filled with anger.
“ xū wú mó jūn ， wèi hé fā nù ？” yī gǔ piáo de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， fǎng fú lái zì jí wéi yáo yuǎn zhī chù ， yòu fǎng fú jìn zài zhǐ chǐ shì de 。
“虚无魔君，为何发怒？”一古朴的声音传入耳朵，仿佛来自极为遥远之处，又仿佛近在咫尺似的。
"Alright, no more arguing." The ancient voice appeared again: "While a few strands are insignificant, losing them all cannot be taken lightly. Does this mean that after all our efforts to open a path to the Spirit Realm, someone has discovered it?"
“ wǒ de jǐ lǚ mó niàn ， bèi cuī huǐ le ， quán jūn fù mò 。” nà hùn dùn zhōng de shēng yīn ， xiǎn de yǒu xiē fèn nù 。
“我的几屡魔念，被摧毁了，全军覆没。”那混沌中的声音，显得有些愤怒。
PS: So few recommendation votes! I urgently need your support, fellow daoists. Please vote! This is for the entire book.
"Phew!"
Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief as he once again released his spirit sense and used the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye to carefully search around, confirming that there was no trace left. The interface channel had been completely sealed off.
A hint of joy appeared on Lin Xuan's face. With his current strength, few entities in the Three Realms could pose a threat to him. However, the域外天魔 would definitely be one of them.

Before he could finish speaking, the previously calm air suddenly seemed to have been poured into an oil pot, causing ripples to spread out from several dozen feet away. A crack appeared, resembling a torn piece of cloth.

Five black strands emerged from the crack and intertwined with each other, transforming into a grotesque ghost face in the flickering darkness.
With its greenish-white face and sharp teeth, it was extremely terrifying as it rushed towards Lin Xuan at an unbelievable speed.

"My few magic threads have been destroyed; it's a total loss," the voice from within the chaos sounded angry.
"A few strands of remote magic threads were just for exploration. Losing them isn't significant. There's no need to be so agitated," another ethereal voice joined in. This voice was incredibly pleasant, far surpassing any music, as if spoken by a woman.
"Hmph, Bailing, it's easy for you to say. The lost magic threads were not just any strands; they can't be ignored," the Virtuous King of Nothingness's voice was filled with anger.
"Alright, no more arguing." The ancient voice appeared again: "While a few strands are insignificant, losing them all cannot be taken lightly. Does this mean that after all our efforts to open a path to the Spirit Realm, someone has discovered it?"
