bù jīng yì jiān ， yī zhǎn chá de shí jiān guò qù 。
不经意间，一盏茶的时间过去。
In a moment, the sound of light footsteps came from afar.
yuǎn chù ， yì diǎn xì suì de jiǎo bù shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ lǐ 。
远处，一点细碎的脚步声传入耳朵里。
Very faint and gradually getting closer, it might have gone unnoticed by most people. However, Lin Xuan's powerful spiritual awareness easily detected it.
hěn qīng ， yóu yuǎn jí jìn 。
很轻，由远及近。
Soon enough, a young woman appeared in his line of sight. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an exquisite appearance. Her brows hinted at her sharp intellect.
yì bān rù ， huò xǔ bú huì zhù yì ， dàn zì rán táo bù guò lín xuān de qiáng dà shén shí 。
一般入，或许不会注意，但自然逃不过林轩的强大神识。
"Senior Sister Sun Ying greets Master and the two Senior Uncles."
hěn kuài ， yī miào líng shào nǚ jiù chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
很快，一妙龄少女就出现在了视线里。
The young lady gracefully bowed with respect.
shí qī bā suì nián jì ， róng yán hěn shì xiù lì ， méi yǔ zhī jiān ， què yǐn yǐn tòu chū jǐ fēn jīng míng néng qiān de qì xī 。
十七八岁年纪，容颜很是秀丽，眉宇之间，却隐隐透出几分jīng明能千的气息。
Lin Xuan had never met this girl before, but from her title, he knew she was a senior disciple of his sister-in-law. Her cultivation level seemed to be quite good, at the middle stage of Profound Abyss.
“ sūn yíng jiàn guò shī fù ， jiàn guò liǎng wèi shī shū 。”
“孙莹见过师傅，见过两位师叔。”
Despite her utmost respect, there was an underlying joy in her voice: "Congratulations on your promotion, Master. Your might has shaken the Spirit Realm; you are invincible under heaven."
shào nǚ yíng yíng yī fú ， gōng jìng de xíng xià dà lǐ 。
少女盈盈一拂，恭敬的行下大礼。
These were originally words from Gu Xiang, but they made the silver-eyed girl blush. Not only had she not actually advanced to the Transcending Tribulation stage, even if she did, how could she compare with the extraordinary Lin Junior Brother?
cǐ nǚ lín xuān bìng wèi jiàn guò ， bù guò tīng chēng hū yě zhī dào shì shī jiě de rù shì dì zǐ le ， xiū wèi hái suàn bù sú ， yǐ dào dòng xuán zhōng qī de chéng dù 。
此女林轩并未见过，不过听称呼也知道是师姐的入室弟子了，修为还算不俗，已到洞玄中期的程度。
The notion of shaking the Spirit Realm and being invincible under heaven sounded so ridiculous that it made her face flush.
cǐ nǚ de biǎo qíng suī gōng jìng yǐ jí ， dàn què nán yǎn xīn zhōng de huān xǐ ：“ gōng xǐ shī zūn jìn jí ， wēi zhèn líng jiè ， yāo xià wú dí 。”
此女的表情虽恭敬以极，但却难掩心中的欢喜：“恭喜师尊晋级，威震灵界，夭下无敌。”
But she didn't reveal this; hiding her cultivation was beneficial for the sect. She trusted her disciple, but from a theoretical standpoint, keeping secrets safe meant fewer people knowing them.
zhè yuán běn shì gǔ xiáng de huà yǔ ， què tīng dé yín tóng shào nǚ liǎn shàng yī hóng ， qiě bù shuō tā bú shì zhēn zhèng de jìn jiē dào dù jié qī 。
这原本是古祥的话语，却听得银瞳少女脸上一红，且不说她不是真正的进阶到渡劫期。
"Alright, you're quite talkative. Did you bring what I asked?"
jiù suàn shì zhēn zhèng de jìn jí ， yòu nǎ lǐ néng yǔ jīng cái jué yàn de lín shī dì xiāng bǐ 。
就算是真正的晋级，又哪里能与惊才绝艳的林师弟相比。
The silver-eyed girl said impatiently. Her tone revealed that this disciple was clearly favored by her.
shén me wēi zhèn líng jiè ， yāo xià wú dí ， tīng zhe zì jǐ dōu jué de liǎn hóng bù yǐ 。
什么威震灵界，夭下无敌，听着自己都觉得脸红不已。
"Yes."
bù guò tā bìng wèi diǎn pò ， yǐn cáng xiū wèi ， duì běn mén dà yǒu hǎo chù ， dào bú shì xìn bù guò zì jǐ de ài tú ， bù guò cóng lǐ lùn lái shuō ， mì mì zhè dōng xī ， shǎo yí gè rù zhī dào ， zì rán yào ān quán yī xiē 。
不过她并未点破，隐藏修为，对本门大有好处，倒不是信不过自己的爱徒，不过从理论来说，秘密这东西，少一个入知道，自然要安全一些。
Sun Ying nodded and then reached out to tap lightly on her waist. An jade box floated before her eyes.
“ hǎo le ， jiù nǐ yóu zuǐ huá shé ， dōng xī ná lái le me ？”
“好了，就你油嘴滑舌，东西拿来了么？”
This jade box was no more than a foot long, incredibly smooth and warm. It was made of ten-thousand-year-old Profound Jade, used as an object to prevent the leakage of spiritual energy.
yín tóng shào nǚ méi hǎo qì de shuō ， cóng tā de yǔ qì yě kě yǐ tīng chū ， zhè dì zǐ ， xiǎn rán shì pǒ wèi dé chǒng de 。
银瞳少女没好气的说，从她的语气也可以听出，这弟子，显然是颇为得宠的。
Lin Xuan couldn't help but be interested in what might be inside.
“ dài lái le 。”
“带来了。”
"Senior Sister, this is..."
sūn yíng diǎn le diǎn tóu ， suí hòu shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài yāo jiān qīng qīng yī pāi ， yí gè yù hé ， fú xiàn zài le yǎn qián 。
孙莹点了点头，随后伸出手来，在腰间轻轻一拍，一个玉盒，浮现在了眼前。
"Junior Brother Lin, just take a look."
cǐ yù hé zhǎng bù guò chǐ xǔ ， wēn rùn wú bǐ ， nǎi shì wàn nián xuán yù ， yòng cǐ zuò wéi qì wù ， xiǎn rán shì wèi le fáng zhǐ líng qì wài lù 。
此玉盒长不过尺许，温润无比，乃是万年玄玉，用此作为器物，显然是为了防止灵气外露。
The silver-eyed girl's face revealed a hint of mystery. From her expression, she seemed eager to give him a surprise.
lín xuān bù yóu de duì lǐ miàn de bǎo wù ， pǒ gǎn xìng qù le 。
林轩不由得对里面的宝物，颇感兴趣了。
"Oh!"
“ shī jiě ， zhè shì ……”
“师姐，这是……”
Lin Xuan took the jade box and gently tapped it with his fingers. "Plop," the lid opened, revealing a small piece of wood. At first glance, it didn't seem remarkable, but when Lin Xuan released his spiritual awareness and focused on examining it, he sensed its extraordinary nature.
“ lín shī dì ， nǐ kàn kàn zì rán jiù qīng chǔ 。”
“林师弟，你看看自然就清楚。”
"Could it be..."
yín tóng shào nǚ de liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī shén mì zhī sè， kàn tā de biǎo qíng ， sì hū xiǎng yào gěi lín xuān yí gè jīng xǐ le 。
银瞳少女的脸上露出一丝神秘之sè，看她的表情，似乎想要给林轩一个惊喜了。
With his deep composure, Lin Xuan's face showed a hint of joy as well. He then touched his forehead with his finger and gently parted his fingers to extract a thread of his essence soul from the center of his brow.
“ ó ！”
“哦！”
Next, Lin Xuan's hand trembled slightly, and that thread of essence soul entered the piece of wood inside the box.
lín xuān jiē guò yù hé ， qū zhǐ wēi dàn ，“ pā dā ” yī shēng ， hé gài dǎ kāi ， yī xiǎo jié mù tou yìng rù yǎn lián ， cū yī kàn ， bìng bù qǐ yǎn ， rán ér dāng lín xuān jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， níng shén fēn biàn ， què gǎn jué dào le cǐ wù de bù fán 。
林轩接过玉盒，屈指微弹，“啪嗒”一声，盒盖打开，一小截木头映入眼帘，粗一看，并不起眼，然而当林轩将神识放出，凝神分辨，却感觉到了此物的不凡。
It felt incredibly comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring. Lin Xuan clearly felt his essence soul grow stronger.
“ nán dào shuō ……”
“难道说……”
"This effect... it must be Soul Nurturing Wood!"
yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ ， liǎn shàng yě lù chū yī sī xǐ sè， suí hòu shēn shǒu zài é tóu yì diǎn ， zài jiāng shǒu zhǐ qīng qīng fēn kāi ， yī lǚ yuán shén cóng tā de méi xīn ， bèi fēn le chū lái 。
以林轩的城府，脸上也露出一丝喜sè，随后伸手在额头一点，在将手指轻轻分开，一缕元神从他的眉心，被分了出来。
Lin Xuan finally confirmed his guess: "Senior Sister, did you really find one?"
suí hòu lín xuān shǒu zhǐ yī chàn ， nà lǚ yuán shén jìn rù le hé zhōng de mù tou lǐ miàn 。
随后林轩手指一颤，那缕元神进入了盒中的木头里面。
Of course, on the Lost Plane, Lin Xuan had obtained treasures from the Mo Yue Clan's legacy. However, as a guardian spirit, Snow Spirit's soul was extremely weak and could dissipate at any moment.
shí fēn shū fú ， fǎng fú pào wēn quán ， lín xuān shí fēn qīng xī de gǎn jué dào ， yuán shén zhuàng dà le yì diǎn 。
十分舒服，仿佛泡温泉，林轩十分清晰的感觉到，元神壮大了一点。
Lin Xuan naturally couldn't ignore this. But since Snow Spirit's physical body was already lost, there weren't many methods to strengthen his essence soul.
“ zhè zhǒng xiào guǒ ， yǎng hún mù ！”
“这种效果，养魂木！”
Sealing Jade could only temporarily keep her alive but couldn't restore it.
lín xuān zhōng yú kěn dìng le zì jǐ de cāi cè ：“ shī jiě ， nǐ jìng rán zhǎo dào le ？”
林轩终于肯定了自己的猜测：“师姐，你竞然找到了？”
The only method left was Soul Nurturing Wood.
dāng rán zài shī luò de jiè miàn ， lín xuān huò dé le mò yuè zú chuán chéng xià lái de bǎo wù ， rán ér zuò wéi shǒu hù zhě ， xuě líng de hún pò ， què xū ruò dào jí chù ， suí shí yǒu kě néng hún fēi pò sàn 。
当然在失落的界面，林轩获得了墨月族传承下来的宝物，然而作为守护者，雪灵的魂魄，却虚弱到极处，随时有可能魂飞魄散。
Only one of the three famous divine trees in cultivation circles had the ability to nourish the essence soul. Even without a physical body, it could make the essence soul grow and recover.
lín xuān zì rán bù kě néng fàng rèn bù guǎn 。
林轩自然不可能放任不管。
However, while the method existed, finding such a rare treasure wasn't easy. This was something that could only be found by chance.
rán ér xuě líng de ròu shēn zǎo yǐ yǔn luò ， xiǎng yào ràng yuán shén zhuàng dà de fāng fǎ kě bù duō 。
然而雪灵的肉身早已陨落，想要让元神壮大的方法可不多。
But since Lin Xuan promised to find this for Snow Spirit, he wouldn't give up just because of the difficulty.
fēng líng yù yě jǐn jǐn shì ràng tā zàn qiě jiāng xiǎo mìng bǎo zhù ， què wú lì huī fù 。
封灵玉也仅仅是让她暂且将小命保住，却无力恢复。
He had many things on his plate and couldn't spare time to search for such spiritual treasures, but as the Supreme Elder of Cloud Concealment Sect, he was now a formidable force in Nai Long First Region.
wéi yī de fāng fǎ jiù zhǐ yǒu yǎng hún mù 。
唯一的方法就只有养魂木。
Without relying on the sect's power, it would be sheer foolishness.
wéi yǒu zhè xiū xiān jiè dà míng dǐng dǐng de sān dà shén mù zhī yī ， cái néng yǒu zī yǎng yuán shén de xiào guǒ ， jí biàn méi yǒu ròu shēn ， yě néng ràng yuán shén zhuàng dà huī fù 。
唯有这修仙界大名鼎鼎的三大神木之一，才能有滋养元神的效果，即便没有肉身，也能让元神壮大恢复。
Lin Xuan wasn't so naive. He had already mentioned this to his senior siblings and asked them to use their sect's resources to find this item for him.
rán ér fāng fǎ shì yǒu le 。
然而方法是有了。
With Cloud Concealment Sect having thousands of cultivators and numerous affiliated families, there was always a chance to find such a treasure. But Lin Xuan hadn't expected it to be so quick.
yǎng hún mù què tài guò zhēn xī ， xiǎng yào xún mì dào nǎ ér yǒu nà me róng yì ， zhè bǎo bèi ， yuán běn jiù shì kě yù ér bù kě qiú dì 。
养魂木却太过珍稀，想要寻觅到哪儿有那么容易，这宝贝，原本就是可遇而不可求地。
Moreover, the Soul Nurturing Wood in front of him wasn't just any ordinary one; its effect on nurturing souls surpassed ancient texts by tens of thousands of years.
bù guò lín xuān jì rán dā yìng le yào wèi xuě líng xún mì ， zì rán bú huì yīn wèi kùn nán jiù bàn tú fàng qì 。
不过林轩既然答应了要为雪灵寻觅，自然不会因为困难就半途放弃。
"Thank you, Senior Sister."
tā zì jǐ zhū shì fán duō ， méi yǒu shí jiān qù xún zhǎo zhè zhǒng líng wù ， bù guò lín xuān xiàn zài yě jīn fēi xī bǐ le ， bù zài shì shì dān lì báo de gū jiā guǎ rù yí gè ， ér shì yún yǐn zōng tài shàng zhǎng lǎo 。
他自己诸事繁多，没有时间去寻找这种灵物，不过林轩现在也今非昔比了，不再是势单力薄的孤家寡入一个，而是云隐宗太上长老。
Lin Xuan played with the spiritual wood, his joy evident.
yún yǐn zōng ， yě yīn wèi tā de yuán gù ， chéng wéi le nài lóng jiè dì yī shì lì 。
云隐宗，也因为他的缘故，成为了鼐龙界第一势力。
"Junior Brother is too kind. This trivial matter isn't worth mentioning. We don't need to talk about gratitude. Finding this item was a stroke of luck for you as well, Sun Ying."
zhè zhǒng shì qíng ， bù jiè zhù zōng mén shì lì ， jiǎn zhí shì yú bù kě jí 。
这种事情，不借助宗门势力，简直是愚不可及。
"Oh, did you discover this treasure?"
lín xuān dāng rán bú huì nà me yū fǔ ， zǎo jiù yǔ shī xiōng shī jiě tí guò ， ràng tā men yǐ zōng mén de lì liàng wèi zì jǐ xún zhǎo cǐ wù 。
林轩当然不会那么迂腐，早就与师兄师姐提过，让他们以宗门的力量为自己寻找此物。
Lin Xuan wasn't overly surprised; he had anticipated it.
yǐ yún yǐn zōng shǔ yǐ wàn jì de xiū xiān zhě ， wài jiā yī fù yú tā de zōng mén jiā zú ， píng jiè zhe rù duō ， zǒng yǒu xī wàng zhǎo dào cǐ wù ， dàn lín xuān yě méi xiǎng dào nà me xùn sù 。
以云隐宗数以万计的修仙者，外加依附于它的宗门家族，凭借着入多，总有希望找到此物，但林轩也没想到那么迅速。
"Yes, Senior Uncle," Sun Ying bowed gracefully and lowered her head in submission.
ér qiě yǎn qián de yǎng hún mù ， hái bú shì fán pǐn ， duì yú hún pò zī yǎng de xiào guǒ ， bǐ gǔ jí zhōng de miáo shù ， hái shèng shàng yī chóu ， kǒng pà shì shù shí wàn nián ， cái chéng zhǎng qǐ lái le líng mù le 。
而且眼前的养魂木，还不是凡品，对于魂魄滋养的效果，比古籍中的描述，还胜上一筹，恐怕是数十万年，才成长起来了灵木了。
"Hmm, though finding this is due to good fortune, your contribution is significant." Lin Xuan's face showed a thoughtful expression as he waved his sleeve. An jade bottle flew out: "This spirit division pill is for you."
“ duō xiè shī jiě le 。”
“多谢师姐了。”
"What? Spirit Division Pill?"
lín xuān bǎ wán zhuó shǒu zhōng de líng mù ， huān xǐ zhī qíng ， nà shì fēn háo yě bù zuò jiǎ de 。
林轩把玩着手中的灵木，欢喜之情，那是分毫也不作假的。
Sun Ying was stunned before she burst into joy. She had heard that her Senior Uncle Lin was generous, but she hadn't expected it to be so extravagant.
“ shī dì tài kè qì le ， qū qū xiǎo shì ， hé zú guà chǐ ， nǐ wǒ zhī jiān ， shuō shén me xiè zì ， néng zhǎo dào cǐ wù ， yě shì jī yuán qiǎo hé ， yíng ér yùn qì bù cuò 。”
“师弟太客气了，区区小事，何足挂齿，你我之间，说什么谢字，能找到此物，也是机缘巧合，莹儿运气不错。”
Spirit Division Pills were essential for any cultivator to advance to the Spirit Division stage, yet the ingredients required were extremely rare and difficult to find in the Spirit Realm.
“ ó ， cǐ bǎo shì nǐ fā xiàn de ？”
“哦，此宝是你发现的？”
Lin Xuan himself had participated in the Spirit Division trials back then to advance. His own sister-in-law did the same, risking her life for a single Spirit Division Pill.
lín xuān dào méi yǒu tài duō yì wài zhī sè， xiǎn rán yǐ jīng yù liào dào yī liǎng fēn le 。
林轩倒没有太多意外之sè，显然已经预料到一两分了。
Even though Cloud Concealment Sect was now formidable, gathering the ingredients needed to make a Spirit Division Pill was still incredibly difficult for an intermediate realm cultivator.
“ shì ， shī shū 。”
“是，师叔。”
For such a gift, it was beyond imagination and extremely precious, even surpassingprimordial spirit treasure in some ways.
nà sūn yíng yíng yíng yī fú ， dī méi shùn mù 。
那孙莹盈盈一福，低眉顺目。
"Thank you, Senior Uncle."
“ ń ， néng zhǎo dào cǐ wù ， suī shì yùn qì qiǎo hé ， dàn nǐ de gōng láo ， yě shì zhe shí bù xiǎo de 。” lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū chén yín zhī sè， xiù páo yī fú ， yí gè yù píng fēi lüè ér chū ；“ zhè lì fēn shén dān ， jiù shǎng nǐ le 。”
“嗯，能找到此物，虽是运气巧合，但你的功劳，也是着实不小的。”林轩脸上露出沉吟之sè，袖袍一拂，一个玉瓶飞掠而出；“这粒分神丹，就赏你了。”
Despite her mature mind, she was so moved that her body trembled. She knelt before Lin Xuan, bowing deeply as she thanked him.
“ shén me ， fēn shén dān ？”
“什么，分神丹？”
"Alright, no need for such formalities. This is your reward," Lin Xuan's expression remained calm. While the Spirit Division Pill was rare, he had enough confidence to gather the ingredients if a disciple needed it now.
sūn yíng xiān shì yī dāi ， suí hòu lù chū kuáng xǐ de biǎo qíng lái ， tā suī rán zǎo jiù tīng shuō ， zhè wèi lín shī shū chū shǒu kuò chuò ， dàn yě bù céng xiǎng ， huì háo kuò dào rú cǐ jìng dì lái de 。
孙莹先是一呆，随后露出狂喜的表情来，她虽然早就听说，这位林师叔出手阔绰，但也不曾想，会豪阔到如此境地来的。
For him, the difficulty of refining this pill was negligible; with his Azure Star Sea, any waste pills could be purified.
fēn shén dān ， rèn hé xiū shì xiǎng yào jìn jiē dào fēn shén qī ， dōu shì bì bù kě shǎo zhī wù ， piān piān liàn zhì de yuán liào ， yòu zhēn xī yǐ jí ， xiǎng yào zài líng jiè zhǎo dào jí bù róng yì 。
分神丹，任何修士想要进阶到分神期，都是必不可少之物，偏偏炼制的原料，又珍稀以极，想要在灵界找到极不容易。
Although Lin Xuan said so, Sun Ying was deeply grateful and thanked endlessly. Even the silver-eyed girl added her words of gratitude on behalf of the disciple.
dāng chū lín xuān wèi le jìn jí ， yě bù dé bù cān jiā fēn shén shì liàn ， qù mó jiè mào xiǎn 。
当初林轩为了晋级，也不得不参加分神试炼，去魔界冒险。
The Spirit Division Pill truly was remarkable.
shī zūn de qīn mèi mèi ， tóng yàng rú cǐ ， wèi le yī lì fēn shén dān ， chū shēng rù sǐ 。
师尊的亲妹妹，同样如此，为了一粒分神丹，出生入死。
And Lin Xuan's joy at obtaining Soul Nurturing Wood, a superior item, was palpable as well. Everyone was happy, chatting for a while before Lin Xuan bid farewell.
In a moment, the sound of light footsteps came from afar.
Very faint and gradually getting closer, it might have gone unnoticed by most people. However, Lin Xuan's powerful spiritual awareness easily detected it.
Soon enough, a young woman appeared in his line of sight. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an exquisite appearance. Her brows hinted at her sharp intellect.
