shí yú wàn lǐ , duì yú fán rén lái shuō yáo bù kě jí , rán ér zài lín xuān dùn guāng quán kāi de qíng kuàng xià , què bù guò shì shùn xī 。
十余万里,对于凡人来说遥不可及,然而在林轩遁光全开的情况下,却不过是瞬息。
Over ten thousand miles, an unattainable distance for ordinary humans. Yet under Lin Xuan's full-speed flight, it was merely a moment.
hěn kuài , wēi é de xiān chéng yǐ lì lì zài mù , gōng chéng zhàn yī jiù shì rú huǒ rú tú 。
很快,巍峨的仙城已历历在目,攻城战依旧是如火如荼。
Soon, the majesticFairy City (Celestial City) came into view; the siege battle raged on fiercely.
chéng chí bìng wèi bèi pò , kě lín xuān xīn zhōng de bù ān què yuè fā qiáng liè le 。
城池并未被破,可林轩心中的不安却越发强烈了。
The city had not been breached, but Lin Xuan felt his unease growing stronger.
rú cǐ xīn tóu líng zhào jué bù kě néng chū cuò , yuè ér nà biān yí dìng shì fā shēng le shén me 。
如此心头灵兆绝不可能出错,月儿那边一定是发生了什么。
Such a foreboding in his heart could never be wrong. Something must have happened to Yue'er.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò , lín xuān hèn bù dé chā chì fēi dào yuè ér de shēn cè 。
脑海中念头转过,林轩恨不得插翅飞到月儿的身侧。
With thoughts racing, Lin Xuan wished he could fly there instantly.
jiāo jí zhī xià , tā shèn zhì gù bù shàng shǐ yòng yǐn nì zhī shù , suī rán yǐ zì jǐ de shén tōng , lín xuān yǒu bǎ wò rào guò gōng chéng shuāng fāng , jiē jìn chéng chí de 。
焦急之下,他甚至顾不上使用隐匿之术,虽然以自己的神通,林轩有把握绕过功城双方,接近城池的。
Anxiously, he didn't even bother with concealment techniques. Although his abilities allowed him to bypass the defenses and approach the city, it would waste too much time.
dàn rú cǐ yī lái , shí jiān huì dān gē xǔ duō 。
但如此一来,时间会耽搁许多。
Now, driven by urgency, Lin Xuan ignored all caution and charged straight in.
ér cǐ shí cǐ kè , lín xuān xīn jí shàng huǒ , nǎ ér hái guǎn shén me xiǎo xīn wú dà cuò , zhí jiē yìng chōng jiù xíng le 。
而此时此刻,林轩心急上火,哪儿还管什么小心无大错,直接硬冲就行了。
Indeed, Lin Xuan intended to forcefully break through.
méi cuò , lín xuān dǎ suàn qiáng xíng tū pò 。
没错,林轩打算强行突破。
How could a vast army of Corpse Kings matter? With a flash of spiritual light, he plunged into the midst of them.
wú biān wú jì de shī wáng dà jūn yòu rú hé , zhǐ jiàn líng guāng shǎn shuò , lín xuān yī tóu zhā jìn qù le 。
无边无际的尸王大军又如何,只见灵光闪烁,林轩一头扎进去了。
Lin Xuan arrived swiftly but without concealing his presence. Just as he was far away, several Ghost Generals spotted him.
lín xuān lái de xùn sù , dàn yóu yú méi yǒu yǐn cáng xíng jì de yì tú , suǒ yǐ , gāng gāng yuǎn zài tiān biān de shí hòu , jiù bèi jǐ míng guǐ jiāng fā xiàn le 。
林轩来得迅速,但由于没有隐藏行迹的意图,所以,刚刚远在天边的时候,就被几名鬼将发现了。
These fellows recognized that Lin Xuan wasn't easily dealt with. However, they couldn’t ignore him and let him enter the city.
zhè jǐ gè jiā huo , yě kàn chū lín xuān bù hǎo rě , dàn shì ruò wú dǔ de fàng tā rù chéng shì bù kě néng de 。
这几个家伙,也看出林轩不好惹,但视若无睹的放他入城是不可能的。
So, they gathered their forces to guard around him, mostly mindless and fearless puppet corpses.
yú shì tā men diào jí dà jūn shǒu wèi zài cè , ér qiě quán shì nà zhǒng wú zhī wú wèi de kuǐ lěi xíng shī jū duō 。
于是他们调集大军守卫在侧,而且全是那种无知无畏的傀儡行尸居多。
As Lin Xuan approached, they raised their signal flags in preparation.
dāng lín xuān chōng dào jìn chù , tā men zǎo yǒu zhǔn bèi de jiāng shǒu zhōng de lìng qí yī wǔ 。
当林轩冲到近处,他们早有准备的将手中的令旗一舞。
Instantly, fierce roars echoed as copper-armored and iron-armored corpses surged forward like a flood of water, rushing towards Lin Xuan.
dùn shí lì hǒu shēng dà zuò , nà xiē tóng jiǎ shī , tiě jiǎ shī rú quán shuǐ pēn bó , cháo zhe lín xuān fēng yōng ér qù le 。
顿时厉吼声大做,那些铜甲尸,铁甲尸如泉水喷薄,朝着林轩蜂拥而去了。
The ghost tide was overwhelming; the corpse waves were towering. In an instant, Lin Xuan found himself surrounded by layers upon layers of troops.
guǐ cháo kuáng juǎn , shī làng tāo tiān , lín xuān jī hū shì yī zhǎ yǎn , jiù bèi wéi kùn zài le céng céng dié dié de dà jūn lǐ miàn 。
鬼潮狂卷,尸浪滔天,林轩几乎是一眨眼,就被围困在了层层叠叠的大军里面。
In front, the corpses fought with reckless bravery; behind him, countless ghostly spirits and ghostly creatures launched their treasures at him.
qián miàn shì xíng shī hàn bù wèi sǐ , hòu miàn , guǐ yǐng chóng chóng , wú shù xíng tài gè yì de yīn hún guǐ wù , chōng zhe lín xuān jì qǐ tā men de bǎo wù 。
前面是行尸悍不畏死,后面,鬼影重重,无数形态各异的阴魂鬼物,冲着林轩祭起他们的宝物。
Many hands make light work! Two fists can't match four. These Ghost Generals had a plan that seemed to be working well.
yǐ duō yǎo sǐ xiàng !
蚁多咬死象!
But Lin Xuan was no longer in the mood for any tricks or schemes. His anxiety over Yue'er had turned him into a raging beast.
shuāng quán nán dí sì shǒu , hǎo hàn yě hài pà rén duō 。 zhè guǐ jiāng de rú yì suàn pán dǎo shì dǎ dé pēng pēng zhí xiǎng de 。
双拳难敌四手,好汉也害怕人多。这鬼将的如意算盘倒是打得嘭嘭直响的。
"Those who stand in my way, die!"
rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè , lín xuān nǎ ér yǒu xīn qíng péi tā wán shén me yīn móu guǐ jì , duì yú yuè ér de dān yōu , yǐ ràng lín xuān biàn chéng yī tóu fā kuáng de měng shòu 。
然而此时此刻,林轩哪儿有心情陪他玩什么阴谋诡计,对于月儿的担忧,已让林轩变成一头发狂的猛兽。
Cracking sounds filled the air as Lin Xuan's right hand grew ten times its size.
“ dǎng wǒ zhě sǐ !”
“挡我者死!”
No need for force laws now; he only needed to clear the path.
pī lǐ pā lā de gǔ gé shēng dà zuò , lín xuān de yòu shǒu , zài qǐng kè jiān biàn dà le shí bèi hái duō 。
噼里啪啦的骨骼声大做,林轩的右手,在顷刻间变大了十倍还多。
With his hair standing on end and veins bulging, he punched forward with all his might.
zhè shí hòu bù xū yào shén me lì liàng fǎ zé , suǒ xū yào de , jǐn jǐn shì sǎo qīng dào lù 。
这时候不需要什么力量法则,所需要的,仅仅是扫清道路。
Boom!
nù fà chōng guān , xuè guǎn tóng kǒng , lín xuān yī quán 。 xiàng qián dǎ qù le 。
怒发冲冠,血管瞳孔,林轩一拳。向前打去了。
A lightning bolt streaked across the sky. The sheer volume of sound alone was terrifying. Every single Corpse King in front did not survive; regardless of their cultivation level—whether they were at the Condensation Core stage or had a Soul Core—they were all shattered by the force of the punch.
hōng !
轰!
Over a thousand corpses fell to the ground, reduced to dust.
jīng léi huá guò tiān kōng , bié shuō quán fēng jìn qì , guāng shì nà jù dà de shēng yīn jiù kě pà wú bǐ 。 chōng zài zuì qián miàn de liàn shī wú yī cún huó , bù guǎn tā men de xiū wèi shì shén me , níng dān yě hǎo , yuán yīng yě bà , zhè yī quán xià qù 。 quán bù bèi shēng yīn gěi zhèn suì diào le 。
惊雷划过天空,别说拳风劲气,光是那巨大的声音就可怕无比。冲在最前面的炼尸无一存活,不管他们的修为是什么,凝丹也好,元婴也罢,这一拳下去。全部被声音给震碎掉了。
The next punch was even more fearsome.
zài shēng yīn zhōng yǔn luò de jiāng shī jiù yǒu qiān yú 。
在声音中陨落的僵尸就有千余。
It seemed capable of splitting heaven and earth.
jiē xià lái de quán jìn gèng shì kě pà wú bǐ 。
接下来的拳劲更是可怕无比。
A visible wave of power swept out. A hundred miles in front of Lin Xuan became an empty space.
fǎng fú néng gòu kāi tiān pì dì 。
仿佛能够开天辟地。
At least ten thousand Corpse Kings were crushed into powder by this blow.
ròu yǎn kě jiàn de quán jìn héng sǎo ér chū , lín xuān shēn qián bǎi yú lǐ , bèi qīng chú le yī piàn kòng dì 。
肉眼可见的拳劲横扫而出,林轩身前百余里,被清除了一片空地。
But these creatures were originally puppet-like constructs, so they didn't know fear. The closest ones to Lin Xuan were cleared away.
zhè yī cì , fěn shēn suì gǔ de liàn shī , zhì shǎo shí wàn yǒu yú 。
这一次,粉身碎骨的炼尸,至少十万有余。
However, the surrounding corpses numbered in the millions, like a tidal wave rushing towards him.
dàn zhè xiē jiā huo , yuán běn jiù shì liàn zhì chū lái de kuǐ lěi zhī wù 。 zì rán bù zhī dào hài pà wèi hé wù , zuì jiē jìn lín xuān de , bèi qīng kōng le 。
但这些家伙,原本就是炼制出来的傀儡之物。自然不知道害怕为何物,最接近林轩的,被清空了。
They soon surrounded Lin Xuan.
rán ér zhōu wéi de liàn shī 。 gèng shì shù liàng páng bó , rú tóng hǎi cháo bān fēng yōng ér chū 。
然而周围的炼尸。更是数量磅礴,如同海潮般蜂拥而出。
Yet the terrifying power of that punch was far from over.
hěn kuài jiù yǒng dào le lín xuān shēn cè 。
很快就涌到了林轩身侧。
Snap…
rán ér nà yī quán de kě pà wēi lì , shàng wèi jié shù 。
然而那一拳的可怕威力,尚未结束。
It sounded like a porcelain bowl breaking on the ground, but now the sound was much louder. A crack appeared in the space where he had just cleared.
kā chā ……
咔嚓……
Several dozen miles long, most cultivators in their entire lives would never see such a fearsome spatial rift.
fǎng fú cí wǎn diào zài dì shàng dǎ pò , rán ér cǐ kè , shēng yīn yào jù dà dé duō 。 gāng gāng bèi qīng chǎng de dì fāng , xū kōng chū xiàn le yī tiáo liè fèng 。
仿佛瓷碗掉在地上打破,然而此刻,声音要巨大得多。刚刚被清场的地方,虚空出现了一条裂缝。
Cracking sounds echoed as the crack grew longer and extended far into the distance. The nearby spatial laws were shattered by Lin Xuan's punch.
zhǎng shù shí lǐ 。 jué dà bù fèn xiū shì , zhè yī bèi zi kōng a píng dōu méi yǒu kàn jiàn guò zhè me kě pà de kōng jiān fèng xì 。
长数十里。绝大部分修士,这一辈子空啊平都没有看见过这么可怕的空间缝隙。
The void was torn open, revealing an enormous spatial rift.
suì liè shēng dà zuò , nà liè fèng yuè lái yuè zhǎng le 。
碎裂声大做,那裂缝越来越长了。
Dark winds gushed out from within.
yán zhǎn xiàng jí yuǎn zhī chù , zhè fù jìn de kōng jiān fǎ zé , jū rán bèi lín xuān yī quán dǎ suì diào le 。
延展像极远之处,这附近的空间法则,居然被林轩一拳打碎掉了。
With the spatial rift, even more corpses fell, reaching over a hundred thousand.
xū kōng bèi sī kāi , chāo dà de kōng jiān liè fèng shǎn xiàn 。
虚空被撕开,超大的空间裂缝闪现。
The Ghost Generals exchanged glances.
suí hòu hēi méng méng de guài fēng , cóng lǐ miàn pēn yǒng chū lái 。
随后黑蒙蒙的怪风,从里面喷涌出来。
They had never seen such a formidable cultivator. One punch alone reduced fifty thousand Corpse Kings to powder; were all old monsters at the Tribulation Transcendence stage this tough?
jiè zhù kōng jiān fèng xì , zhè yī cì yǔn luò de jiāng shī gèng duō , dá dào le shù shí wàn zhī shù 。
借助空间缝隙,这一次陨落的僵尸更多,达到了数十万之数。
Going in would be suicide. This guy was clearly beyond their ability to contend with!
nà xiē guǐ jiāng yě bù yóu de miàn miàn xiāng qù le 。
那些鬼将也不由得面面相觑了。
The Ghost Generals began to have second thoughts, realizing that Lin Xuan's displayed strength was astonishingly powerful.
jiàn guǐ biāo hàn de xiū xiān zhě , méi jiàn guò shuí biāo hàn dào zhè bān dì bù 。
见鬼彪悍的修仙者,没见过谁彪悍到这般地步。
However, some of the ghost creatures below didn't react as quickly.
yī quán zhī wēi , jiù jiāng wǔ shí wàn tóu liàn shī dǎ chéng le fěn mò , dù jié qī lǎo guài , dōu zhè me biāo hàn me ?
一拳之威,就将五十万头炼尸打成了粉末,渡劫期老怪,都这么彪悍么?
Originally hiding behind the Corpse Kings for an easy win, they had already released their treasures. There wasn’t enough time to retract them now.
qù yě shì sòng sǐ ér yǐ , yǎn qián zhè jiā huo , jué fēi zì jǐ kě yǐ lì dí !
去也是送死而已,眼前这家伙,绝非自己可以力敌!
A dazzling light filled the area; over ten thousand strange and bizarre ghost treasures surrounded Lin Xuan, enveloping him in layers of protection.
guǐ jiāng men xīn zhōng yǐ yǒu le fàng shuǐ zhī yì , shí zài shì lín xuān biǎo xiàn chū lái de zhàn lì , jīng rén wú bǐ , ná jī dàn pèng shí tou yú bù kě jí 。
鬼将们心中已有了放水之意,实在是林轩表现出来的战力,惊人无比,拿鸡蛋碰石头愚不可及。
But Lin Xuan was focused on his journey and didn't summon any defensive treasures.
rán ér tā men zhè me xiǎng , dǐ xià de yī xiē guǐ wù fǎn yìng què méi yǒu nà me xùn sù 。
然而他们这么想,底下的一些鬼物反应却没有那么迅速。
This made the ghosts both fearful and delighted.
yuán běn duǒ zài liàn shī hòu miàn shì jiǎn pián yí de 。
原本躲在炼尸后面是捡便宜的。
Even if it were a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator, there was no reason to face so many treasures with one's physical body.
yǐ gè zì fàng chū le zì jǐ de bǎo wù , zhè shí hòu xiǎng yào shōu huí dōu lái bù jí le 。
已各自放出了自己的宝物,这时候想要收回都来不及了。
Cases of high-ranking cultivators falling to low-rank beings due to overconfidence were not uncommon.
yī shí jiān guāng huá dà zuò , xī qí gǔ guài de míng bǎo guǐ qì zú yǒu shàng wàn zhī duō , yǐ lái dào lín xuān shēn cè , jiāng tā céng céng bāo wéi le 。
一时间光华大做,稀奇古怪的冥宝鬼器足有上万之多,已来到林轩身侧,将他层层包围了。
Before him stood an old monster likely at the Tribulation Transcendence stage; if he could be eliminated, they would earn a monumental achievement.
ér lín xuān máng zhe gǎn lù , gēn běn jiù méi yǒu jì qǐ fáng yù de bǎo wù 。
而林轩忙着赶路,根本就没有祭起防御的宝物。
With these thoughts in mind, the ghosts' faces lit up with excitement.
zhè ràng nà xiē lì guǐ zài xīn jīng zhī yú , yòu bù yóu de dà wèi huān xǐ 。
这让那些厉鬼在心惊之余,又不由得大为欢喜。
They didn't retract their treasures but instead poured more power into them. Some of the hesitant ghosts also joined the attack.
duì fāng jiù suàn shì dù jié qī , yě jué méi yǒu ná ròu shēn yìng káng zhè me duō fǎ bǎo de dào lǐ 。
对方就算是渡劫期,也绝没有拿肉身硬扛这么多法宝的道理。
In an instant, ghostly roars filled the air as dark energy surged. Countless grayish-white light beams enveloped Lin Xuan completely.
gāo jiē xiū shì yīn wèi dà yì qīng dí , yǔn luò zài dī jiē cún zài shǒu lǐ de zhàn lì , nà yě shì lǚ jiàn bù xiān dì 。
高阶修士因为大意轻敌,陨落在低阶存在手里的战例,那也是屡见不鲜地。
The combined force of so many attacks was indeed terrifying; a regular Tribulation Transcendence cultivator might have chosen to dodge if they were in Lin Xuan's position.
yǎn qián zhè lǎo guài wù , shí yǒu ** shì dù jié jí bié de xiū xiān zhě , ruò néng jiāng tā miè chú , zì jǐ zhè xiē rén kě jiù lì xià bù shì de dà gōng le 。
眼前这老怪物,十有**是渡劫级别的修仙者,若能将他灭除,自己这些人可就立下不世的大功了。
But Lin Xuan didn't do that. Not out of arrogance, but because he had no time!
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò , zhè xiē lì guǐ de liǎn shàng dōu liú lù chū xīng fèn zhī sè 。
脑海中念头转过,这些厉鬼的脸上都流露出兴奋之色。
As the saying goes, between high-ranking cultivators, victory or defeat is decided by a hair’s breadth. If something happened to Yue'er on his way, he would regret it deeply.
jiāng cuò jiù cuò , bù jǐn méi yǒu shōu huí bǎo wù , fǎn ér jiāng gèng duō de fǎ lì zhù rù , ér yī xiē yuán běn yǒu xiē yóu yù de lì guǐ kàn jiàn cǐ mù , yě jīng shén dà zhèn de jiā rù gōng jī le 。
将错就错,不仅没有收回宝物,反而将更多的法力注入,而一些原本有些犹豫的厉鬼看见此幕,也精神大振的加入攻击了。
So, despite facing thousands of ghost treasures, Lin Xuan's flight speed remained unchanged.
yī shí jiān , lì guǐ kuáng xiào , yīn qì tāo tiān , wú shù huī bái sè de guāng huá , jiāng lín xuān chè dǐ bāo guǒ zài le lǐ miàn 。
一时间,厉鬼狂啸,阴气滔天,无数灰白色的光华,将林轩彻底包裹在了里面。
A fierce expression appeared on his face as flames erupted from every part of his body.
rú cǐ shù liàng zhòng duō de gōng jī , dié jiā hòu què shí jù yǒu lìng rén xīn chàn de wēi lì , yì bān de dù jié qī xiū shì ruò shì yǔ lín xuān yì dì ér chǔ , shuō bù dìng yě huì xuǎn zé duǒ shǎn yī tú 。
如此数量众多的攻击,叠加后确实具有令人心颤的威力,一般的渡劫期修士若是与林轩易地而处,说不定也会选择躲闪一图。
Then, colorful spiritual light shone brightly; true spirits emerged from the surface of his body.
rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè , lín xuān méi yǒu zhè me zuò 。
然而此时此刻,林轩没有这么做。
But this wasn't over. In an instant, golden light flashed, and the Nine Heavens Divine Net also materialized behind him.
bìng fēi tuō dà , ér shì méi yǒu shí jiān !
并非托大,而是没有时间!
The light radiated, almost tangible.
sú huà shuō , gāo shǒu guò zhāo , shèng fù zhǐ zài yī xiàn , lín xuān hài pà qù dé , yuè ér nà biān dàng zhēn yù jiàn shén me biàn gù , zì jǐ kě jiù huǐ bù dāng chū 。
俗话说,高手过招,胜负只在一线,林轩害怕去得,月儿那边当真遇见什么变故,自己可就悔不当初。
Nine heads, each with different expressions—happy or angry—were vividly lifelike.
suǒ yǐ miàn duì shù yǐ wàn jì de guǐ qì bǎo wù , lín xuān de dùn guāng yī jiù méi yǒu bàn diǎn fàng huǎn 。
所以面对数以万计的鬼器宝物,林轩的遁光依旧没有半点放缓。
As for the eighteen arms, they moved in various ways; each hand formed a mystical mudra that was incredibly intricate.
tā de liǎn shàng lì sè yī xiǎn , hún shēn shàng xià mào qǐ chōng tiān de huǒ yàn 。
他的脸上厉色一显,浑身上下冒起冲天的火焰。
Then, countless patterns appeared on the surface of the Nine Heavens Divine Net.
suí hòu wǔ sè líng máng dà zuò , yī dào dào zhēn líng de xū yǐng yóu lín xuān de shēn tǐ biǎo miàn yī chōng ér chū 。
随后五色灵芒大做,一道道真灵的虚影由林轩的身体表面一冲而出。
These patterns were ancient and mysterious, forming true spirits like phoenixes, peacocks, and golden-winged great eagles.
rán ér zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù , xià yī kè , dàn jiàn jīn máng dà zuò , jiǔ tiān shén luó xiāng yě yóu lín xuān de bèi hòu fú xiàn ér chū 。
然而这还没有结束,下一刻,但见金芒大做,九天神罗相也由林轩的背后浮现而出。
There were several types, corresponding to the true spirit shadows floating above his head.
Over ten thousand miles, an unattainable distance for ordinary humans. Yet under Lin Xuan's full-speed flight, it was merely a moment.
Soon, the majesticFairy City (Celestial City) came into view; the siege battle raged on fiercely.
The city had not been breached, but Lin Xuan felt his unease growing stronger.
