第三千二百四十四章 技高一筹

lín xuān jīng chà zhī yú ， yě bèi qì xiào diào le 。     jiàn guò dǎn dà de xiū xiān zhě ， méi jiàn guò shuí dǎn dà dào zhè zhǒng chéng dù 。

林轩惊诧之余，也被气笑掉了。    见过胆大的修仙者，没见过谁胆大到这种程度。

Lin Xuan was stunned, but he couldn't help laughing. He had never seen a cultivator so bold.

zhè kū shí wēng ， hái zhēn yǒu jǐ fēn xìng gé 。

这枯石翁，还真有几分性格。

This old man of withered stone truly has some character. The other party dares to do this, there must be something they're relying on.

duì fāng gǎn zhè me zuò ， háo wú yí wèn ， shì yǒu jǐ fēn yǐ zhàng de 。

对方敢这么做，毫无疑问，是有几分倚仗的。

Lin Xuan didn’t believe that these venerable monsters at the Tribulation Transcending stage would really go mad. However, even if they had something to rely on, what could it matter? He was confident in his own innate treasure.

lín xuān cái bù xiāng xìn yī táng táng de dù jié qī lǎo guài wù ， huì zhēn de fēng 。

林轩才不相信一堂堂的渡劫期老怪物，会真的疯。

Even though the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword wasn't as good as a先天 item, it wouldn’t be too far off. The other party dared to withstand with their body, that’s like an old man hanging himself and wanting to live longer. It didn’t matter if he were a tribulation-transcending existence or even a scattered fairy demon king; he had absolute confidence in cutting them down.

bù guò yǒu yǐ zhàng yòu rú hé ， lín xuān duì zì jǐ de běn mìng fǎ bǎo ， xìn xīn shí zú 。

不过有倚仗又如何，林轩对自己的本命法宝，信心十足。

Lin Xuan's guess was correct. The old man of withered stone dared to do this, naturally for his own reasons. Firstly, it was indeed out of necessity. Lin Xuan’s trap was extremely clever, and the other party couldn’t even reverse the situation. But under these circumstances, he could only use a few methods.

jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jiù suàn bù jí xiān tiān zhī wù ， yě bú huì xiāng chà tài duō 。

九宫须臾剑就算不及先天之物，也不会相差太多。

Secondly, he had complete confidence in the hardness of his body. This guy wasn't human, nor a beast race; it was a rock that absorbed the essence of sun and moon, coincidentally gaining its way. His body's hardness was already to an incredible degree, far beyond what the same-stage beasts could match, let alone ordinary treasures.

duì fāng gǎn yǐ ròu shēn yìng káng ， nà shì lǎo shòu xīng shàng diào ， xián mìng zhǎng ， bié shuō tā yí gè dù jié chū qī de cún zài ， jiù suàn shì sàn xiān yāo wáng ， zì jǐ yě yǒu jué duì de bǎ wò ， jiāng qí zhǎn le 。

对方敢以肉身硬扛，那是老寿星上吊，嫌命长，别说他一个渡劫初期的存在，就算是散仙妖王，自己也有绝对的把握，将其斩了。

His collision carried with it the force of his法则 understanding, from some angle, this could be considered his trump card. Did he really think setting a trap would defeat him?

lín xuān de cāi cè méi yǒu cuò ， kū shí wēng gǎn zhè me zuò ， dāng rán shì yǒu zì jǐ yī fān kǎo liáng de 。

林轩的猜测没有错，枯石翁敢这么做，当然是有自己一番考量的。

Too naive, you're going to end up hurting yourself by lifting a stone.

yī lái què shí shì pò bù dé yǐ 。

一来确实是迫不得已。

The old man of withered stone had a smile on his face; Lin Xuan was no different. Both were confident, but only one would emerge victorious in this direct confrontation.

lín xuān wā de xiàn jǐng qiǎo miào yǐ jí ， duì fāng bù shuō huí tiān fá shù ， dàn zài zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià ， tā néng gòu yìng yòng de shǒu duàn yǐ shì qū zhǐ kě shǔ 。

林轩挖的陷阱巧妙以极，对方不说回天乏术，但在这种情况下，他能够应用的手段已是屈指可数。

Boom!

èr lái zé shì tā duì zì jǐ shēn qū de jiān yìng xìn xīn shí zú 。

二来则是他对自己身躯的坚硬信心十足。

The sword thread and the old man of withered stone collided fiercely.

zhè jiā huo bú shì rén lèi ， yě bìng fēi yāo zú ， ér shì yī kuài yán shí xī shōu rì yuè jīng huá ， jī yuán qiǎo hé ， cái dé dào de 。

这家伙不是人类，也并非妖族，而是一块岩石吸收日月精华，机缘巧合，才得道的。

At that moment, the entire universe twisted, fierce gales rose up, and two terrifying forces of法则 clashed together in mid-air.

qí ròu shēn zhī jiān yìng ， zǎo yǐ dào le yī bù kě sī yì de dì bù ， yuǎn fēi tóng jiē yāo zú kě yǐ bǐ nǐ ， gèng bú shì yì bān de fǎ bǎo néng gòu qǐ jí 。

其肉身之坚硬，早已到了一不可思议的地步，远非同阶妖族可以比拟，更不是一般的法宝能够企及。

The process was horrifying, but the outcome came unexpectedly quickly. The body of the old man of withered stone had been tempered countless times; its hardness far exceeded that of same-stage beasts. But to withstand the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword still seemed too much.

tā zhè yī xià zhuàng jī ， tóng yàng dài yǒu qí lǐng wù de fǎ zé zhī lì ， cóng mǒu gè jiǎo dù ， kě yǐ shuō shì qí yā xiāng dǐ de gōng fu ， xīn dǐ dài zhe yī sī lěng xiào zhī sè ， yǐ wéi shè xià xiàn jǐng jiù néng duì fù zì jǐ me ？

他这一下撞击，同样带有其领悟的法则之力，从某个角度，可以说是其压箱底的功夫，心底带着一丝冷笑之色，以为设下陷阱就能对付自己么？

Sizzle...

tài tiān zhēn le ， zhè yī xià fēi ràng nǐ bān qǐ shí tou zá zì jǐ de jiǎo bù kě 。

太天真了，这一下非让你搬起石头砸自己的脚不可。

Like a bolt of cloth tearing apart, his protective spirit light was easily cut through.

kū shí wēng de liǎn shàng dài zhe xiào yì ， lín xuān yòu hé cháng bú shì rú cǐ ， liǎng rén jiē xìn xīn shí zú ， ér zhè yī cì zhèng miàn yìng pèng què zhù dìng zhǐ yǒu yí gè shèng lì zhě 。

枯石翁的脸上带着笑意，林轩又何尝不是如此，两人皆信心十足，而这一次正面硬碰却注定只有一个胜利者。

Then that thread of sword thread struck his body fiercely.

hōng ！

轰！

The cracking sound entered his ears once again; the body he was so proud of actually showed a crack.

jiàn sī yǔ kū shí wēng hěn hěn de zhuàng zài le yì qǐ 。

剑丝与枯石翁狠狠的撞在了一起。

That crack quickly spread.

zài nà yī kè ， zhěng gè tiān dì ， dōu wèi zhī niǔ qū ， gāng fēng sì qǐ ， liǎng gǔ kě pà de fǎ zé zhī lì ， zài bàn kōng zhōng hěn hěn de jiū chán zài yì qǐ 。

在那一刻，整个天地，都为之扭曲，罡风四起，两股可怕的法则之力，在半空中狠狠的纠缠在一起。

Soon, his body split into two halves.

guò chéng kě pà yǐ jí ， dàn shèng fù ， què chū rén yì liào de hěn kuài jiù yǒu liǎo jié guǒ 。

过程可怕以极，但胜负，却出人意料的很快就有了结果。

"Impossible!"

kū shí wēng de shēn qū ， qiān chuí bǎi liàn guò ， lùn jiān yìng chéng dù ， què shí yuǎn shèng tóng jiē yāo zú ， dàn xiǎng yào yìng káng jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn ， hái shì tài miǎn wéi qí nán le 。

枯石翁的身躯，千锤百炼过，论坚硬程度，确实远胜同阶妖族，但想要硬扛九宫须臾剑，还是太勉为其难了。

The old man of withered stone was greatly alarmed. His own body, he knew it best; even if he were to withstand a divine treasure, there would be no problem. How could this guy break it so easily? Could the innate treasure of this little fellow really compare to a先天 item?

cī lā ……

刺啦……

That was impossible.

rú bù jǐn bèi sī pò ， tā de hù tǐ líng guāng ， bèi qīng yì de qiè kāi le 。

如布锦被撕破，他的护体灵光，被轻易的切开了。

He didn’t believe that Lin Xuan’s innate treasure could be so outrageous.

suí hòu nà yī lǚ jiàn sī ， hěn hěn jī zhuàng zài tā de shēn qū zhī shàng 。

随后那一缕剑丝，狠狠击撞在他的身躯之上。

There must be some other reason.

suì liè shēng zài yí cì chuán rù ěr duǒ ， kū shí wēng wèi zhī zì ào de ròu shēn ， jū rán chū xiàn le yī sī liè hén 。

碎裂声再一次传入耳朵，枯石翁为之自傲的肉身，居然出现了一丝裂痕。

But by now, he couldn’t think clearly and had no time for contemplation. Having achieved such results, how could Lin Xuan not continue pressing his advantage?

suí hòu nà liè hén xùn kuò zhǎn 。

随后那裂痕迅扩展。

Seize the opportunity to take a life. To an enemy, Lin Xuan wouldn’t spare any mercy.

hěn kuài tā de ròu shēn duàn liè chéng le liǎng bàn 。

很快他的肉身断裂成了两半。

With a wave of his sleeve, more sword threads appeared, creating a loud crackling sound.

“ bù kě néng ！”

“不可能！”

Of course, in terms of power, they couldn’t compare to what he had just used, but with their multitude, based on the principle that many ants can bite an elephant, they managed to match the sword threads evenly. This prevented Lin Xuan from expanding his gains.

kū shí wēng dà jīng shī sè ， zì jǐ de ròu shēn zì jǐ zuì qīng chǔ ， jiù suàn shì yìng káng tōng tiān líng bǎo yě fēn háo wèn tí yě wú ， zěn me kě néng zhè me qīng yì jiù bèi duì fāng dǎ pò ， nán dào shuō ， zhè xiǎo jiā huo de běn mìng fǎ bǎo ， jìng kān bǐ xiān tiān zhī wù me ？

枯石翁大惊失色，自己的肉身自己最清楚，就算是硬扛通天灵宝也分毫问题也无，怎么可能这么轻易就被对方打破，难道说，这小家伙的本命法宝，竟堪比先天之物么？

And this wasn’t over; another loud noise echoed.

zhè xiǎn rán shì bù kě néng de 。

这显然是不可能的。

Countless dark-brown rocks erupted from underground, like lava gushing out, then condensed into a giant hand.

tā jué bù xiāng xìn ， lín xuān de běn mìng bǎo wù ， néng rú cǐ lí pǔ 。

他绝不相信，林轩的本命宝物，能如此离谱。

That hand was over a hundred feet long and terrifyingly imposing, exerting an overwhelming pressure as it grabbed at Lin Xuan.

zhè zhōng jiān yí dìng lìng yǒu yuán gù 。

这中间一定另有缘故。

A petty trick!

bù guò zhè shí hòu tā yǐ jīng xiǎng bù qīng chǔ ， yě lái bù jí sī suǒ 。

不过这时候他已经想不清楚，也来不及思索。

Lin Xuan said this with his mouth but had no trace of contempt in his heart. This old man of withered stone was even more tenacious than a middle-stage cultivator. In such circumstances, he dared to turn defense into offense. If not for him, any other cultivator might have been caught off guard.

hǎo bù róng yì cái yǒu le zhè yàng de zhàn guǒ ， lín xuān zěn me kě néng bù zài jiē zài lì ne ？

好不容易才有了这样的战果，林轩怎么可能不再接再厉呢？

However, Lin Xuan wasn’t about to be lenient. Although the other party’s response was unexpected, Lin Xuan remained calm.

chèn tā bìng ， yào tā mìng ， duì dí rén ， lín xuān kě bù huì shǒu xià liú qíng 。

趁他病，要他命，对敌人，林轩可不会手下留情。

Fists clenched, a sound of bones cracking echoed in his ears as he punched forward.

xiù páo yī fú ， gèng duō de jiàn sī fú xiàn ér chū ， yī shí jiān ， pò kōng shēng dà zuò 。

袖袍一拂，更多的剑丝浮现而出，一时间，破空声大做。

On the surface, this punch seemed unremarkable.

dāng rán ， lùn wēi lì ， kěn dìng wú fǎ yǔ gāng gāng xiāng bǐ ， dàn shèng zài shù liàng zhòng duō ， qí shā shāng lì ， yě shì bù róng rén xiǎo shì de 。

当然，论威力，肯定无法与刚刚相比，但胜在数量众多，其杀伤力，也是不容人小视的。

But ripples appeared in the air, and the波动 of power法则 followed.

nà kū shí wēng dà jīng shī sè ， zhè xiǎo zi tài hěn le 。

那枯石翁大惊失色，这小子太狠了。

Lin Xuan had already been familiar with such a rule for some time. After countless trials, although it wasn’t yet perfect, its power was still formidable.

tā cǐ shí yǐ lái bù jí duǒ ， liǎn sè yī chén zhī xià ， yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū 。

他此时已来不及躲，脸色一沉之下，一道法诀打出。

That giant hand looked terrifying, but lacked any support from 法则.

zhè yī dào fǎ jué shèn shì qí tè ， jū rán mò rù liǎng rén de jiǎo xià bú jiàn le 。

这一道法诀甚是奇特，居然没入两人的脚下不见了。

Thus, the result was obvious; there was no suspense.

lín xuān yī dāi ， duì fāng zhè shì yì yù rú hé ？

林轩一呆，对方这是意欲如何？

Sizzle...

zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， yī zhèn hōng lōng lóng de jù xiǎng jiù chuán rù le ěr duǒ ， suí hòu pò kōng shēng dà zuò ， yī zhī zhǐ de shí máo cóng dì biǎo fú xiàn ér cóng ， xiàng zhe bàn kōng zhōng jī shè 。

这个念头尚未转过，一阵轰隆隆的巨响就传入了耳朵，随后破空声大做，一只只的石茅从地表浮现而从，向着半空中激射。

Under the influence of 法则, this could be called a collapse. That giant hand instantly turned to ashes and vanished.

“ zhè ……”

“这……”

Lin Xuan’s face showed no surprise at such a result.

lín xuān yī dāi ， nà xiē shí máo cóng wēi lì lái shuō ， yuǎn méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ huà jiàn wèi sī de shén tōng xiāng bǐ ， dàn shù liàng gèng wéi zhòng duō ， píng zhe yǐ duō yǎo sǐ xiàng de yuán zé ， jū rán yǔ jiàn sī pīn le gè bù fēn shèng fù ， ràng lín xuān méi yǒu bàn fǎ kuò dà zhàn guǒ 。

林轩一呆，那些石茅从威力来说，远没有办法与化剑为丝的神通相比，但数量更为众多，凭着蚁多咬死象的原则，居然与剑丝拼了个不分胜负，让林轩没有办法扩大战果。

Just as he was about to turn his head to finish off the old man of withered stone, something unexpected happened. A loud rumbling came from underground, and several rock giants suddenly appeared.

ér cǐ shì zhì cǐ ， bìng méi yǒu gào yí duàn luò ， yòu yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。

而此事至此，并没有告一段落，又一声巨响传入耳朵。

The earth attribute magic of the other party had truly reached a level of mastery.

wú shù hēi hè sè de yán shí ， cóng dì dǐ pēn yǒng ér chū ， jiù fǎng fú yán jiāng pēn bó ， suí hòu ， níng jié chéng le yī zhī jù shǒu 。

无数黑褐色的岩石，从地底喷涌而出，就仿佛岩浆喷薄，随后，凝结成了一只巨手。

Lin Xuan couldn’t help but marvel at this. Then he shook his head: "No, it’s not just an earth attribute spell; there must be something else."

nà shǒu cháng zú yǒu bǎi zhàng yú ， kàn shàng qù kě pà wú bǐ ， dài zhe lìng rén xīn jì de yā lì ， xiàng lín xuān yī bǎ zhuā qù 。

那手长足有百丈余，看上去可怕无比，带着令人心悸的压力，像林轩一把抓去。

But he didn’t delve deeper.

diāo chóng xiǎo jì ！

雕虫小技！

With things as they were, Lin Xuan no longer had time to play hide and seek with the black phoenix fairy woman and the bald giant. Despite their best efforts, the situation was dire.

lín xuān zuǐ shàng zhè yàng shuō ， xīn zhōng qí shí què méi yǒu fēn háo xiǎo shì zhī sè ， zhè kū shí wēng de nán chán ， shèn zhì shèng guò le zhōng qī xiū xiān zhě 。

林轩嘴上这样说，心中其实却没有分毫小视之色，这枯石翁的难缠，甚至胜过了中期修仙者。

If he couldn’t cut through this chaos quickly and eliminate him, it would be a case of one wrong move ruining everything. Such a situation was something Lin Xuan didn’t want to see.

zhè zhǒng qíng xíng xià ， jū rán gǎn fǎn shǒu wèi gōng 。

这种情形下，居然敢反守为攻。

Go all in!

ruò bú shì zì jǐ ， huàn zuò bié de xiū xiān zhě ， hái zhēn yǒu kě néng bèi tā dǎ yí gè cuò shǒu bù jí 。

若不是自己，换做别的修仙者，还真有可能被他打一个措手不及。

A fierce look flashed across Lin Xuan’s face as he revealed his trump card early. With no time left, there was no choice.

rán ér lín xuān qǐ shì hǎo xiāng yǔ ， suī rán duì fāng de yìng duì chū rén yì biǎo ， dàn lín xuān yī jiù cóng róng bù pò 。

然而林轩岂是好相与，虽然对方的应对出人意表，但林轩依旧从容不迫。

Lin Xuan’s eyes flickered with a sharp look as he waved his sleeve, and an ancient scroll appeared.

wǔ zhǐ jǐn wò ， yī zhèn gǔ gé bào liè de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ，

五指紧握，一阵骨骼爆裂的声音传入耳朵，

Ten Thousand Swords Painting!

lín xuān yī quán cháo zhe qián fāng hōng luò 。

林轩一拳朝着前方轰落。

This was a先天 item; the moment it appeared, heart-stopping 法则 radiated out. The face of the old man of withered stone turned pale.

zhè yī quán cóng biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， píng píng wú qí 。

这一拳从表面上看，平平无奇。

He had extensive knowledge and lived for millions of years, having seen先天 items before. That familiar feeling made him tense up immediately.

rán ér xū kōng zhōng què fàn qǐ diǎn diǎn lián yī ， lì liàng fǎ zé de bō dòng suí zhī ér qǐ 。

然而虚空中却泛起点点涟漪，力量法则的波动随之而起。

Could it be... a divine treasure?
