bù guò yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ 。 zì rán shì suī jīng bù luàn 。 yī xiù qīng fú 。 yī dào lǜ sè de fǎ jué fēi lüè ér chū 。 zhào huí le fù xiān qiú 。 rán hòu shén shí wēi dòng 。 piāo yún luò xuě jiàn huà wèi yī dào xuě bái de shǎn diàn 。 xiàng zhe duì fāng pī cì xià lái 。
不过以林轩的城府。自然是虽惊不乱。衣袖轻拂。一道绿色的法诀飞掠而出。召回了缚仙球。然后神识微动。飘云落雪剑化为一道雪白的闪电。向着对方劈刺下来。
However, Lin Xuan's composure was such that he remained unperturbed despite the situation. With a light wave of his sleeve, a green spell flew out and recalled the Captive Immortal Ball. Then, with a slight movement of his divine sense, the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword transformed into a streak of snow-white lightning, slicing towards the opponent.
yāo mó lěng xiào yī shēng 。 háo wú duǒ shǎn zhī yì 。 yòu shǒu yī fān 。 gǔ dāo yǐ jīng yíng le shàng qù 。
妖魔冷笑一声。毫无躲闪之意。右手一翻。骨刀已经迎了上去。
The demon sneered, showing no intention to dodge. With a flip of his right hand, he met the sword head-on.
lìng rén yá suān de shēng yīn xiǎng qǐ 。 piāo yún luò xuě jiàn jū rán bèi pī de dào fēi le huí lái 。 lín xuān liǎn sè yī chén 。 zhǐ jiàn nà xiān jiàn de biǎo miàn 。 jìng rán chū xiàn le yī dào qiǎn qiǎn de liè hén 。
令人牙酸的声音响起。飘云落雪剑居然被劈的倒飞了回来。林轩脸色一沉。只见那仙剑的表面。竟然出现了一道浅浅的裂痕。
A sound that made teeth ache echoed as the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword was actually sliced back. Lin Xuan's expression darkened as he saw a shallow crack appear on the surface of the immortal sword.
duì fāng de gǔ dāo jū rán fēng lì dào zhè ge chéng dù 。
对方的骨刀居然锋利到这个程度。
The demon's bone knife was evidently sharp to this degree.
zì jǐ suǒ yòng de 。 kě shì yuán yīng qī lǎo guài suǒ yí liú xià lái de dǐng jiē gǔ bǎo 。 ruò shì huàn chéng pǔ tōng níng dān qī xiū shì liàn zhì de fǎ bǎo 。 kǒng pà yǐ jīng bào fèi diào 。 lín xuān yǒu xiē hài rán de xīn xiǎng 。
自己所用的。可是元婴期老怪所遗留下来的顶阶古宝。若是换成普通凝丹期修士炼制的法宝。恐怕已经报废掉。林轩有些骇然的心想。
He had used an ancient treasure left behind by a wizened old monster at the peak stage, and if it were a regular condensation core cultivator's artifact, it would likely be rendered useless. Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel alarmed as he thought about it.
suí jí tā bù zài chí yí 。 jiāng piāo yún luò xuě jiàn shōu huí le chǔ wù dài lǐ 。
随即他不再迟疑。将飘云落雪剑收回了储物袋里。
Without hesitation, he retracted the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword into his storage bag. Although this ancient treasure could勉强match the demon in battle, any damage sustained afterward would certainly not be trivial. Such a clearly unprofitable transaction was something Lin Xuan wouldn't engage in. He needed to find another way to defeat the demon.
suī rán yǐ zhè gǔ bǎo de děng jí 。 yě néng miǎn qiǎng yǔ duì fāng huǒ pīn yī cháng 。 dàn shì hòu jiù suàn bù bào fèi 。 suǒ shòu dào de sǔn shāng yě kěn dìng fēi xiǎo 。 zhè zhǒng míng xiǎn péi běn de mǎi mài 。 lín xuān zì rán bú huì qù zuò 。 yào zhàn shèng yǎn qián de yāo mó 。 hái shì xiǎng bié de bàn fǎ hǎo le 。
虽然以这古宝的等级。也能勉强与对方火拼一场。但事后就算不报废。所受到的损伤也肯定非小。这种明显赔本的买卖。林轩自然不会去做。要战胜眼前的妖魔。还是想别的办法好了。
Just as he was about to take action, the demon suddenly vanished before his eyes.
niàn jí zhì cǐ 。 lín xuān zhèng yào yǒu suǒ dòng zuò 。 yǎn qián de yāo mó què tū rán xiāo shī le 。
念及至此。林轩正要有所动作。眼前的妖魔却突然消失了。
Not... disappeared, but moved too fast for his eyes to follow.
bù …… bú shì xiāo shī 。 ér shì de sù dù tài kuài 。 yǐ zhì yú yǎn jīng kàn bù qīng chǔ 。
不……不是消失。而是的速度太快。以至于眼睛看不清楚。
Lin Xuan was alarmed and quickly dodged. A flash of white light appeared where he had been standing. Had he been a moment later, he would have been split in two by the attack.
lín xuān dà hài 。 lián máng shǎn kāi 。
林轩大骇。连忙闪开。
Seeing Lin Xuan dodge his strike, the demon's eyes showed surprise before being replaced with an even colder murderous intent as it lunged at him again.
yī dào bái guāng zài tā gāng cái suǒ zhàn lì de de fāng shǎn xiàn 。 rú guǒ shāo wǎn yì diǎn 。 zì jǐ suī bù zhì yú bèi pǐ chéng liǎng bàn 。 dàn chǔ jìng kěn dìng yě huì jí xiǎn 。
一道白光在他刚才所站立的的方闪现。如果稍晚一点。自己虽不至于被劈成两半。但处境肯定也会极险。
Lin Xuan wouldn't sit idly by. While dodging erratically, he injected mana into the Soul Capturing Mirror and continuously spat out fist-sized light orbs from the ancient treasure. However, the demon's speed was too fast for his eyes or divine sense to lock onto, rendering the Soul Capturing Mirror's abilities ineffective.
jiàn lín xuān duǒ guò le zì jǐ de gōng jī 。 nà yāo mó de yǎn zhōng liú lù chū yī sī chà yì 。 suí jí bèi gèng jiā bīng lěng de shā yì dài tì 。 zài cì xiàng tā pū le guò lái 。
见林轩躲过了自己的攻击。那妖魔的眼中流露出一丝诧异。随即被更加冰冷的杀意代替。再次向他扑了过来。
Lin Xuan's expression remained calm, but his heart was filled with sighs. He hadn't expected the demon to be so tenacious.
lín xuān zì rán bú huì zuò yǐ dài bì 。 yī biān piāo hū bù dìng de duǒ shǎn 。 yī biān jiāng fǎ lì zhù rù dào shè líng jìng lǐ 。 cóng cǐ gǔ bǎo lǐ miàn 。 bù duàn pēn yǒng chū quán tou dà xiǎo de guāng tuán 。 wú nài duì fāng de sù dù shí zài shì tài kuài 。 bié shuō yǎn jīng 。 jiù lián shén shí dōu wú fǎ jiāng qí suǒ dìng 。 shè líng jìng de shén tōng zài qiáng 。 dǎ bú dào duì fāng 。 zì rán yě shì wú fǎ kè dí 。
林轩自然不会坐以待毙。一边飘忽不定的躲闪。一边将法力注入到摄灵镜里。从此古宝里面。不断喷涌出拳头大小的光团。无奈对方的速度实在是太快。别说眼睛。就连神识都无法将其锁定。摄灵镜的神通再强。打不到对方。自然也是无法克敌。
It was said that demons who used demonic transformation would see their magical power and realm skyrocket in a short time, often acquiring some special abilities.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng yī jiù chén wěn 。 dàn xīn zhōng què yǐ lián lián tàn xī le qǐ lái 。 méi xiǎng dào duì fàng jū rán rú cǐ nán chán 。
林轩的表情依旧沉稳。但心中却已连连叹息了起来。没想到对放居然如此难缠。
The speed of this demon compared to before was like night and day. Although it didn't reach the level of instant teleportation, it was still causing him headaches.
jù shuō shǐ yòng le mó huà biàn shēn de yāo mó 。 bù jǐn fǎ lì jìng jiè huì zài duǎn shí jiān nèi kuáng zhǎng 。 ér qiě wǎng wǎng huán huì yōng yǒu yī xiē tè shū shén tōng 。
据说使用了魔化变身的妖魔。不仅法力境界会在短时间内狂涨。而且往往还会拥有一些特殊神通。
Suddenly, a faint shadow appeared before him.
yǎn qián zhè tóu de sù dù yǔ gāng cái xiāng bǐ 。 jiǎn zhí pàn ruò yún ní 。 suī rán méi yǒu dá dào chuán shuō zhōng shùn yí de jìng de 。 dàn yě ràng zì jǐ tóu téng bù yǐ 。
眼前这头的速度与刚才相比。简直判若云泥。虽然没有达到传说中瞬移的境的。但也让自己头疼不已。
Lin Xuan was alarmed, realizing he had no time to dodge. A massive force struck his body as the demon's bone knife hit him.
tū rán 。 yī dào cán yǐng zài shēn qián shǎn xiàn 。
突然。一道残影在身前闪现。
Fortunately, the Idle Fan was sentient and flew out on its own to shield him.
lín xuān dà jīng 。 àn jiào bù hǎo 。 xiǎng yào duǒ shǎn 。 yǐ jīng lái bù jí 。 zhǐ jué yī gǔ jù lì xí tǐ 。 què shì āi le duì fāng de yī jī gǔ dāo 。
林轩大惊。暗叫不好。想要躲闪。已经来不及。只觉一股巨力袭体。却是挨了对方的一击骨刀。
The demon's attack failed, and it grew more frenzied. With a swift swing of its blade, it slashed three times, causing the Idle Fan to emit a mournful cry before splitting in two. Lin Xuan took this opportunity to retreat far away.
hǎo zài xiāo yáo shàn fǎ bǎo tōng líng 。 bù yòng lín xuān qū shǐ 。 jiù zì jǐ fēi lái hù tǐ 。
好在逍遥扇法宝通灵。不用林轩驱使。就自己飞来护体。
"Brat, you're done. Why do you persist like this?"
yāo mó yī jī wú gōng 。 liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng yuè jiā fēng kuáng 。 huī dāo rú fēng 。 yī lián sān xià 。 xiāo yáo shàn fā chū yī shēng āi míng 。 bèi pǐ chéng le liǎng bàn 。 lín xuān zé chèn cǐ jī huì 。 yuǎn yuǎn duǒ kāi 。“ xiǎo zi 。 nǐ wán le 。 hé bì zuò zhè chuí sǐ zhēng zhá !”
妖魔一击无功。脸上的表情越加疯狂。挥刀如风。一连三下。逍遥扇发出一声哀鸣。被劈成了两半。林轩则趁此机会。远远躲开。“小子。你完了。何必做这垂死挣扎!”
The demon's form flickered as it chased after him relentlessly. However, he had forgotten that he wasn't facing just Lin Xuan alone.
yāo mó shēn xíng yī huǎng 。 yòu rú fū gǔ zhī qū yī yàng de zhuī le shàng lái 。 rán ér 。 wàng le 。 zì jǐ miàn duì de 。 bìng fēi jǐn yǒu lín xuān yī rén ér yǐ 。
妖魔身形一晃。又如跗骨之蛆一样的追了上来。然而。忘了。自己面对的。并非仅有林轩一人而已。
Seeing Young Master in danger, Yue'er wouldn't stand idly by. Opening her mouth, she sprayed a ball of qi into the small talisman in her hand.
jiàn shào yé yù xiǎn 。 yuè ér zì rán bú huì lěng yǎn páng guān 。 zhāng kāi tán kǒu 。 yī tuán líng qì pēn rù le shǒu zhōng de xiǎo fān 。
见少爷遇险。月儿自然不会冷眼旁观。张开檀口。一团灵气喷入了手中的小幡。
The Beast Soul Talisman emitted black light as countless ghost mists poured out with eerie winds.
shòu hún fān hēi máng shǎn xiàn 。 bàn suí zhe cǎn cǎn de yīn fēng 。 wú shù de guǐ wù cóng lǐ miàn fēng yōng le chū lái 。
兽魂幡黑芒闪现。伴随着惨惨的阴风。无数的鬼雾从里面蜂拥了出来。
Yue'er's expression grew more serious as she extended her tiny hand and cast several spells. The demon flag slowly floated up.
yuè ér biǎo qíng yuè fā níng zhòng 。 shēn chū xiǎo shǒu 。 gè niē le yī dào fǎ jué 。 ér nà mó fān zé huǎn huǎn de piāo fú le qǐ lái 。
月儿表情越发凝重。伸出小手。各捏了一道法诀。而那魔幡则缓缓的漂浮了起来。
"Quickly!"
“ jí !”
“疾!”
With a flick of her jade finger, several colorful spells entered the demon flag, causing the ghost mists to surge and emit loud hisses. Countless venomous snakes emerged from within.
yuè ér yù zhǐ yì diǎn 。 jǐ dào wǔ yán liù sè de fǎ jué mò rù le mó fān lǐ miàn 。 nà guǐ wù dùn shí fān yǒng bù zhǐ 。 sī míng zhī shēng dà qǐ 。 wú shù tiáo dú shé cóng lǐ miàn fēng yōng le chū qù 。
月儿玉指一点。几道五颜六色的法诀没入了魔幡里面。那鬼雾顿时翻涌不止。嘶鸣之声大起。无数条毒蛇从里面蜂拥了出去。
"What is this?"
“ zhè shì shén me dōng xī ?”
“这是什么东西?”
The demon's bone knife swung repeatedly, chopping off many snakes with each strike. However, once they fell, they quickly reverted to ghost mists and returned to the demon flag.
yāo mó shǒu zhōng de gǔ dāo lián lián huī dòng 。 měi yī xià 。 jiù yǒu shù tiáo dú shé bèi kǎn chéng le liǎng jié 。 rán ér nà xiē shé shī luò de yǐ hòu 。 hěn kuài jiù huì huán yuán chéng guǐ wù 。 chóng xīn fēi huí mó fān zhī zhōng 。
妖魔手中的骨刀连连挥动。每一下。就有数条毒蛇被砍成了两节。然而那些蛇尸落的以后。很快就会还原成鬼雾。重新飞回魔幡之中。
As long as Yue'er didn't exhaust her mana, more venomous snakes would continuously appear.
zhǐ yào yuè ér de fǎ lì méi yǒu kū jié 。 dú shé jiù néng yuán yuán bù duàn de chǎn shēng 。
只要月儿的法力没有枯竭。毒蛇就能源源不断的产生。
The demon's arrogance was temporarily halted.
yāo mó de xiāo zhāng qì yàn 。 zàn shí bèi jié zhǐ le xià lái 。
妖魔的嚣张气焰。暂时被截止了下来。
Lin Xuan was pleased. He hadn't expected the combination of the Profound Yin True Scripture and the Beast Soul Talisman to effectively counter the demon.
lín xuān xīn zhōng yī xǐ 。 méi xiǎng dào xuán mó ** pèi hé shòu hún fān qià hǎo néng gòu kè zhì duì fāng 。
林轩心中一喜。没想到玄魔**配合兽魂幡恰好能够克制对方。
With Yue'er distracting him, he could now cast spells calmly.
yǒu le yuè ér de tuō yán 。 zì jǐ yě kě yǐ cóng róng shī fǎ 。
有了月儿的拖延。自己也可以从容施法。
After a moment's thought, Lin Xuan re-summoned the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword. Although its durability was slightly inferior compared to the demon's bone knife, it was still an artifact with special abilities.
lín xuān shāo yī chén yín 。 chóng xīn jì chū le piāo yún luò xuě jiàn 。 cǐ bǎo de jiān rèn chéng dù 。 suī rán hé duì fāng de gǔ dāo xiāng bǐ 。 yào lüè xùn yī chóu 。 dàn tóng yàng shì yǒu tè shū shén tōng de fǎ bǎo 。
林轩稍一沉吟。重新祭出了飘云落雪剑。此宝的坚韧程度。虽然和对方的骨刀相比。要略逊一筹。但同样是有特殊神通的法宝。
Several spells were injected as the sword emitted a clear ringing sound and began to tremble. Snowflakes appeared in the air, and temperatures plummeted sharply.
jǐ dào fǎ jué zhù rù 。 qīng míng shēng zhōng 。 cǐ bǎo kāi shǐ qīng qīng chàn dòng 。 rán hòu wú shù de xuě huā chū xiàn zài le kōng qì zhōng 。 qì wēn yě kāi shǐ zhòu rán xià jiàng 。
几道法诀注入。清鸣声中。此宝开始轻轻颤动。然后无数的雪花出现在了空气中。气温也开始骤然下降。
The name of this sword wasn't chosen at random; it had formidable water attribute attacks.
zhè piāo yún luò xuě jiàn zhī míng kě bú shì píng kōng luàn qǔ 。 cǐ bǎo běn shēn jiù fù dài yǒu pǒ wèi bù fán de shuǐ shǔ xìng gōng jī 。
这飘云落雪剑之名可不是凭空乱取。此宝本身就附带有颇为不凡的水属性攻击。
However, that was just the beginning.
rán ér zhè jǐn jǐn shì kāi shǐ 。
然而这仅仅是开始。
Lin Xuan tapped his storage bag and took out a palm-sized spirit talisman but didn't summon it. Instead, he unexpectedly affixed it to his chest.
lín xuān zài chǔ wù dài shàng yī pāi 。 yòu jiāng zhè bā zhǎng dà xiǎo de líng fú qǔ le chū lái 。
林轩在储物袋上一拍。又将这巴掌大小的灵符取了出来。
After a flash of light, the spirit vanished.
bù guò què méi yǒu jì chū 。 fǎn ér chū rén yì liào de jiāng nà zhāng fú tiē zài le zì jǐ de xiōng qián 。
不过却没有祭出。反而出人意料的将那张符贴在了自己的胸前。
This action surprised the demon, who temporarily focused on dealing with Yue'er's venomous snakes while still keeping an eye on Lin Xuan.
fú líng guāng yī shǎn zhī hòu 。 jiù xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
符灵光一闪之后。就消失不见。
After all, this young man was their main adversary. Although the ghost maiden was also at the condensation core stage, her cultivation was clearly inferior to his.
zhè ge jǔ dòng ràng yāo mó yǒu xiē chà yì 。 suī rán zàn shí hái duì fù yuè ér suǒ shì fàng chū lái de dú shé 。 dàn què yī rán yǒu dà bǎ de jīng lì guān zhù lín xuān 。
这个举动让妖魔有些诧异。虽然暂时还对付月儿所释放出来的毒蛇。但却依然有大把的经历关注林轩。
Lin Xuan's actions weren't baseless; this spirit talisman had a significant origin. He bought it from Senior Immortal Dry Wood when he went to the Heavenly Eye Sect for a high price—two thousand crystal stones.
bì jìng 。 zhè ge shào nián cái shì zì jǐ de dà dí 。
毕竟。这个少年才是自己的大敌。
Although it was a mid-grade spirit talisman, the price was still excessively high.
nà yīn hún shào nǚ suī rán tóng yàng shì níng dān qī 。 dàn xiū wèi yǔ zhī xiāng bǐ 。 zé míng xiǎn yào chà shàng yī xiē 。
那阴魂少女虽然同样是凝丹期。但修为与之相比。则明显要差上一些。
However, Lin Xuan wasn't about to be cheated. He was willing to spend heavily because this "Instant千里" spirit talisman had a remarkable origin. The Heavenly Eye Sect's other abilities aside, its speed was unparalleled, and Instant千里 was one of its most mysterious techniques.
lín xuān zhè me zuò dāng rán bú shì wú dì fàng shǐ 。 cǐ líng fú dà yǒu lái lì 。 shì dāng chū tā qù tiān mù pài zhī shí 。 cóng kū mù zhēn rén shǒu zhōng gāo jià mǎi xià 。
林轩这么做当然不是无的放矢。此灵符大有来历。是当初他去天目派之时。从枯木真人手中高价买下。
Lin Xuan originally bought the spirit talisman as a means of self-preservation.
yī gòng huā qù le liǎng qiān jīng shí 。
一共花去了两千晶石。
Now, it could still be put to use. Even if he didn't use it for escape, applying this spell would significantly increase his speed.
suī rán zhè shì yī zhāng de jiē zhōng jí de fú 。 dàn zhè ge jià gé 。 wèi miǎn hái shì gāo de yǒu xiē lí pǔ 。
虽然这是一张的阶中级的符。但这个价格。未免还是高的有些离谱。
Even if he couldn't keep up with the demon, it would greatly alleviate the passive situation.
dāng rán 。 lín xuān shì jué bú huì dāng yuān dà tóu de 。 tā zhī suǒ yǐ yuàn yì dà chū xuè 。 shì yīn wèi zhè “ shùn xī qiān lǐ ” de líng fú dà yǒu lái tou 。
当然。林轩是绝不会当冤大头的。他之所以愿意大出血。是因为这“瞬息千里”的灵符大有来头。
Several flashes of white light appeared as the demon swept away the venomous snakes before him and broke free from the ghost mists.
tiān mù pài bié de shén tōng zàn qiě bù shuō 。 zhè dùn sù jué duì shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。 chí míng yōu zhōu 。 shùn xī qiān lǐ gèng shì qí zhōng zuì wèi shén miào de yī zhǒng 。
天目派别的神通暂且不说。这遁速绝对是非同小可。驰名幽州。瞬息千里更是其中最为神妙的一种。
Lin Xuan coldly glanced at the demon. His mana circulated within, causing his figure to blur.
lín xuān mǎi xià cǐ líng fú 。 yuán běn xiǎng zuò wéi bǎo mìng zhī yòng 。
林轩买下此灵符。原本想作为保命之用。
"Hmm?"
xiàn zài zé tóng yàng kě yǐ pài shàng yòng tú 。 jiù suàn bù yòng lái táo zǒu 。 wèi zì jǐ shī jiā cǐ fǎ shù yǐ hòu 。 sù dù jué duì huì dà zhǎng bù shǎo 。
现在则同样可以派上用途。就算不用来逃走。为自己施加此法术以后。速度绝对会大涨不少。
The demon's expression showed surprise when its attack missed. The other had such swift evasive abilities... Could it be that spirit talisman?
jiù suàn yī rán gēn bù shàng duì fāng 。 dàn yě huì jiāng bèi dòng de xíng shì huǎn jiě bù shǎo 。
就算依然跟不上对方。但也会将被动的形势缓解不少。
His thoughts were quick, but he didn't have time during combat to dwell on them. He noticed the air flow on his left was abnormal and turned back just in time to see an extremely bright sword light.
shù dào bái guāng shǎn guò 。 yāo mó jiāng yǎn qián de dú shé yī sǎo ér kōng 。 shēn xíng yī huǎng 。 yǐ cóng guǐ wù de bāo wéi zhōng chōng le chū lái 。
数道白光闪过。妖魔将眼前的毒蛇一扫而空。身形一晃。已从鬼雾的包围中冲了出来。
The demon was shocked and quickly raised its bone knife to block. Although surprised, it didn't take Lin Xuan's ancient treasure seriously. However, upon impact, its eyes widened in shock: "This...?"
However, Lin Xuan's composure was such that he remained unperturbed despite the situation. With a light wave of his sleeve, a green spell flew out and recalled the Captive Immortal Ball. Then, with a slight movement of his divine sense, the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword transformed into a streak of snow-white lightning, slicing towards the opponent.
The demon sneered, showing no intention to dodge. With a flip of his right hand, he met the sword head-on.
Sizzle...
A sound that made teeth ache echoed as the Drifting Cloud Falling Snow Sword was actually sliced back. Lin Xuan's expression darkened as he saw a shallow crack appear on the surface of the immortal sword.
The demon's bone knife was evidently sharp to this degree.
He had used an ancient treasure left behind by a wizened old monster at the peak stage, and if it were a regular condensation core cultivator's artifact, it would likely be rendered useless. Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel alarmed as he thought about it.

Such a clearly unprofitable transaction was something Lin Xuan wouldn't engage in. He needed to find another way to defeat the demon.
Just as he was about to take action, the demon suddenly vanished before his eyes.
Not... disappeared, but moved too fast for his eyes to follow.
Lin Xuan was alarmed and quickly dodged. A flash of white light appeared where he had been standing. Had he been a moment later, he would have been split in two by the attack.
Seeing Lin Xuan dodge his strike, the demon's eyes showed surprise before being replaced with an even colder murderous intent as it lunged at him again.
