nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān hún shēn qīng máng dà qǐ ， zhèng zhǔn bèi tóng yuè ér yì qǐ ， qián qù chá kàn yī fān qíng kuàng rú hé 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩浑身青芒大起，正准备同月儿一起，前去查看一番情况如何。
Thoughts raced through Lin Xuan's mind as a bright green glow enveloped his body. He was about to head out with Moon to investigate the situation when a deafening explosion suddenly reached his ears.
rán ér jiù zài cǐ kè ， zhèn tiān dòng dì de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
然而就在此刻，震天动地的爆裂声传入耳朵。
The sound seemed to come from an extremely distant place, yet it was clear even at a distance of several ten thousand miles.
nà shēng yīn fǎng fú lái zì jí yuǎn zhī chù ， rán ér xiāng gé shù wàn lǐ ， yī jiù néng gòu tīng dé qīng qīng chǔ chǔ 。
那声音仿佛来自极远之处，然而相隔数万里，依旧能够听得清清楚楚。
The primordial qi in the heavens and earth became incredibly chaotic, no, it was rushing towards the faraway location.
tiān dì jiān de yuán qì ， yī xià zi biàn dé hùn luàn yǐ jí ， bú duì ， shì cháo zhe yuǎn chù ， fēi lüè ér qù 。
天地间的元气，一下子变得混乱以极，不对，是朝着远处，飞掠而去。
"Bad news!"
“ bù hǎo ！”
“不好！”
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he released his immensely powerful divine consciousness. However, the battle scene in the distance remained blurry due to the chaotic force of law, easily blocking his divine awareness.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， jiāng qiáng dà yǐ jí de shén niàn yī fàng ér chū ， rán ér yuǎn chù de zhàn tuán què yī piàn mó hú ， hùn luàn de fǎ zé zhī lì ， jiāng tā de shén niàn ， gěi qīng yì dǎng zhù 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，将强大以极的神念一放而出，然而远处的战团却一片模糊，混乱的法则之力，将他的神念，给轻易挡住。
Clearly, the struggle had escalated to a critical point where life and death could be decided at any moment.
xiǎn rán ， nà biān de zhēng dòu ， yǐ dào le bái è huà de chéng dù ， suí shí yǒu kě néng jué shēng sǐ ， pàn shèng fù 。
显然，那边的争斗，已到了白恶化的程度，随时有可能决生死，判胜负。
Given Lin Xuan's position, he naturally didn't want any experts loyal to Asura to fall. Otherwise, the losses would be significant.
ér yǐ lín xuān lái shuō ， zì rán bù xī wàng zhōng yú ā xiū luó yī fāng de gāo shǒu yǔn luò 。
而以林轩来说，自然不希望忠于阿修罗一方的高手陨落。
Thus, without bothering to call out, he enveloped Moon in a bright green glow and flew towards the scene.
fǒu zé ， zào chéng de sǔn shī fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
否则，造成的损失非同小可。
The battle was about ten thousand miles away from here—unimaginably distant for ordinary people—but with Lin Xuan's divine speed, it took only an instant.
yú shì ， tā gù bù dé zhāo hū ， hún shēn qīng máng dà zuò ， jiāng yuè ér yī guǒ ， jiù cháo zhe qián fāng fēi lüè ér qù le 。
于是，他顾不得招呼，浑身青芒大做，将月儿一裹，就朝着前方飞掠而去了。
In such a critical situation, he spared no effort. After several leaps, he arrived at his destination.
zhàn tuán jù lí cǐ dì ， dà yuē yǒu shí wàn lǐ ， duì yú fán rén lái shuō ， zì rán shì yáo yuǎn wú bǐ ， rán ér yǐ lín xuān de shén xíng dùn sù lái shuō ， què bù guò shùn xī 。
战团距离此地，大约有十万里，对于凡人来说，自然是遥远无比，然而以林轩的神行遁速来说，却不过瞬息。
Here, the primordial qi was even more chaotic. The sky was filled with rampant forces of law, dust clouds obscuring half the horizon as several indistinct figures appeared and disappeared.
rú jīn qíng shì wēi jī ， tā zì rán bú huì liú lì ， quán lì shī wéi ， jǐ gè qǐ luò ， jiù lái dào le mù dì dì 。
如今情势危机，他自然不会留力，全力施为，几个起落，就来到了目的地。
Boom!
zhè ér de tiān dì yuán qì ， gèng shì kuáng bào wú bǐ ， tiān kōng zhī zhōng ， dào chù mí màn zhe sì lüè de fǎ zé zhī lì ， yáng qǐ de chén tǔ ， zhē dǎng zhù le bàn biān tiān jì ， jǐ gè méng lóng de rén yǐng ， ruò yǐn ruò xiàn de yìng rù yǎn lián lǐ 。
这儿的天地元气，更是狂暴无比，天空之中，到处弥漫着肆掠的法则之力，扬起的尘土，遮挡住了半边天际，几个朦胧的人影，若隐若现的映入眼帘里。
Suddenly, a loud explosion echoed like thunder in the clear sky. Primordial qi surged towards the center of the group, forming a white hurricane that stretched from heaven to earth.
hōng ！
轰！
The hurricane then blurred into a gray-white light column with a diameter of several acres, enveloped by dark electric arcs.
tū rán ， yī shēng jù xiǎng ， rú qíng tiān pī lì ， suí hòu tiān dì yuán qì ， cháo zhe jǐ rén de zhōng jiān ， dào guàn ér qù ， yī dào bái méng méng de jù fēng píng kōng ér qǐ ， lián tiān jiē dì 。
突然，一声巨响，如晴天霹雳，随后天地元气，朝着几人的中间，倒灌而去，一道白蒙蒙的飓风凭空而起，连天接地。
Crackling sounds filled the air as the already thick light column expanded further.
suí hòu nà jù fēng yī zhèn mó hú 。 huà wèi le yī dào huī bái sè de guāng zhù 。
随后那飓风一阵模糊。化为了一道灰白色的光柱。
Wherever it passed, everything turned to nothingness. The void collapsed and twisted, while other objects were reduced to dust in an overwhelming manner.
zhí jìng zú yǒu shù mǔ ， biǎo miàn hái bāo guǒ zhe yǒu hēi sè de diàn hú 。
直径足有数亩，表面还包裹着黝黑色的电弧。
Lin Xuan was naturally not afraid but couldn't ignore it either. He flicked his sleeve and summoned the Azure Tortoise Dragon Armor Shield, forming a thick light curtain that enveloped him and Moon.
cī lā shēng dà zuò ……
刺啦声大做……
Boom!
nà yuán běn jiù cū dà yì cháng de guāng zhù ， zài cì cháo zhe sì zhōu kuò zhǎn ér qù le 。
那原本就粗大异常的光柱，再次朝着四周扩展而去了。
The hurricane swept past with immense power. However, as the Azure Tortoise Dragon Armor Shield was an innate object, Lin Xuan and Moon remained unharmed behind it.
suǒ guò zhī chù ， yī piàn xū wú ， xū kōng tā xiàn niǔ qū ， zhì yú qí tā de dōng xī ， gèng shì cuī kū lā xiǔ bān ， bèi huà wèi le fěn mò 。
所过之处，一片虚无，虚空塌陷扭曲，至于其他的东西，更是摧枯拉朽般，被化为了粉末。
For nearly a cup of tea's time, the explosion's aftermath gradually subsided. Although the dust in the sky hadn't dispersed, the forces of law no longer caused chaos. With his powerful divine awareness, Lin Xuan could now clearly see the surroundings.
lín xuān zì rán bù jù ， dàn yě bù gǎn shì ruò wú dǔ 。 xiù páo yī fú ， jiāng xuán guī lóng jiǎ dùn jì chū ， huà wèi yī piàn níng hòu guāng mù ， jiāng zì jǐ hé yuè ér bāo guǒ 。
林轩自然不惧，但也不敢视若无睹。袖袍一拂，将玄龟龙甲盾祭出，化为一片凝厚光幕，将自己和月儿包裹。
The landscape was ravaged; many mountains had been flattened by the life-and-death blow of a cultivation period existence. The power of such an attack was unimaginable.
hōng ！
轰！
Two figures then came into view—a slender girl with familiar features and an elderly man in black robes. His skin was a pale silver, and he sported short sharp horns on his forehead, indicating that he belonged to the ghost race.
jù fēng héng sǎo ér guò ， nà wēi lì lìng rén zé shé 。 dàn xuán guī lóng jiǎ dùn nǎi shì xiān tiān zhī wù ， lín xuān yǔ yuè ér cáng yú qí hòu ， zì rán fēn háo wèn tí méi yǒu 。
飓风横扫而过，那威力令人咋舌。但玄龟龙甲盾乃是先天之物，林轩与月儿藏于其后，自然分毫问题没有。
No other cultivators were within a ten-thousand-mile radius, so it was clear who had won the battle.
jiù zhè yàng ， zú zú guò le yī zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， bào zhà de yú bō cái zhú jiàn guī yú xū wú ， tiān dì jiān de huī chén suī rán méi yǒu sàn kāi ， dàn fǎ zé zhī lì zhǐ yào bù zài hùn luàn 。 yǐ lín xuān shén shí zhī qiáng ， zì rán néng gòu kàn qīng chǔ sì zhōu de jǐng xiàng 。
就这样，足足过了一盏茶的功夫，爆炸的余波才逐渐归于虚无，天地间的灰尘虽然没有散开，但法则之力只要不再混乱。以林轩神识之强，自然能够看清楚四周的景象。
Lin Xuan's face showed relief; there was no need for him to intervene now.
mǎn mù chuāng yí ， bù shǎo gāo shān dōu bèi yí wèi le píng dì ， dù jié qī cún zài jué shēng sǐ 。 pàn shèng fù de yī jī ， wēi lì zì rán shì nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng dì 。
满目疮痍，不少高山都被夷为了平地，渡劫期存在决生死。判胜负的一击，威力自然是难以想象地。
Although the two had emerged victorious, they couldn't escape any cost.
suí hòu liǎng gè rén yǐng yìng rù le shì xiàn lǐ 。
随后两个人影映入了视线里。
Medusa's face was pale, and one of her arms was missing. The fight, though a win, was a bitter victory.
yī shì shēn cái miáo tiáo de shào nǚ ， róng mào yǒu jǐ fēn yǎn shú 。
一是身材苗条的少女，容貌有几分眼熟。
She took deep breaths as black light flashed across her injured shoulder, revealing a new arm amidst swirling阴气.
lín xuān zǐ xì yī qiáo ， liǎn shàng lù chū dà xǐ guò wàng zhī sè 。 míng xuě guǒ rán méi yǒu yǔn luò 。
林轩仔细一瞧，脸上露出大喜过望之色。冥雪果然没有陨落。
At their level, limb regeneration wasn't extraordinary, but the loss of primordial essence energy was severe, making her injuries even more serious.
ér zài tā páng biān ， zé shì yī shēn chuān zào páo de lǎo zhě 。 róng mào yǔ rén zú yě méi yǒu tài duō de bù tóng zhī chù ， bù guò tā de pí fū zuò dàn yín sè ， é tóu hái yǒu yī duì duǎn duǎn de jiān jiǎo xiǎn lù ér chū ， zhāo shì chū tā de shēn fèn nǎi shì guǐ zú 。
而在她旁边，则是一身穿皂袍的老者。容貌与人族也没有太多的不同之处，不过他的皮肤做淡银色，额头还有一对短短的尖角显露而出，昭示出他的身份乃是鬼族。
The elderly man in black robes looked similar, his face pale and gray.
chú le tā men liǎng rén yǐ wài ， fāng yuán wàn lǐ ， zài wú qí tā xiū shì de zōng jì ， nà me gāng cái zhàn tuán de shèng fù ， yǐ jīng hěn qīng chǔ 。
除了他们两人以外，方圆万里，再无其他修士的踪迹，那么刚才战团的胜负，已经很清楚。
Despite this, both appeared relieved and happy. Regardless, they had managed to eliminate a formidable enemy.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū xīn wèi zhī sè ， zhè dào wú xū zì jǐ zài dòng shǒu le 。
林轩脸上露出欣慰之色，这倒无需自己再动手了。
However, just as he thought this, Lin Xuan felt an overwhelming presence.
rán ér míng xuě liǎng rén suī rán yíng le ， què yě bù kě néng yì diǎn dài jià dōu bù fù 。
然而冥雪两人虽然赢了，却也不可能一点代价都不付。
Medusa raised her head in alarm, and then the faces of Lord and King appeared before her eyes.
míng xuě de liǎn sè cāng bái wú bǐ ， yī tiáo shǒu bì gèng shì bù yì ér fēi ， bú jiàn le zōng jì 。
冥雪的脸色苍白无比，一条手臂更是不翼而飞，不见了踪迹。
"Lord, Your Majesty, why are you here?"
nà chǎng jué dòu suī rán yíng le ， dàn yì shì yí gè cǎn shèng de jié guǒ 。
那场决斗虽然赢了，但亦是一个惨胜的结果。
Medusa was overjoyed but also surprised. When the young lord had rushed away earlier, she had a bad feeling about it. Now that he and the king were together, it meant the crisis was over, which made her genuinely happy.
suí hòu cǐ nǚ shēn shēn hū xī ， yuán běn shòu shāng de jiān tóu hēi guāng yī shǎn ， yī tiáo zhǎn xīn de shǒu bì zài yīn qì jiāo zhī zhōng chóng xīn fú xiàn 。
随后此女深深呼吸，原本受伤的肩头黑光一闪，一条崭新的手臂在阴气交织中重新浮现。
The elderly man in black robes flew over, bowed, and said, "Muye pays respects to Your Majesty and Lord."
shí lì dào le tā zhè ge děng jí ， duàn zhī zài shēng zì rán méi yǒu shén me liǎo bù qǐ 。
实力到了她这个等级，断肢再生自然没有什么了不起。
"Friend, no need for formalities."
bù guò yuán běn cāng bái de liǎn sè ， gèng shì biàn dé huī bái wú bǐ ， duàn zhī gù rán kě yǐ zài shēng ， rán ér sǔn hào de běn mìng yuán qì ， zhǐ huì gèng jiā de cǎn zhòng yǐ jí ， shāng shì dāng rán yě jiù gèng zhòng le yī xiē 。
不过原本苍白的脸色，更是变得灰白无比，断肢固然可以再生，然而损耗的本命元气，只会更加的惨重以极，伤势当然也就更重了一些。
Lin Xuan had already heard about Muye's reputation from Moon.
ér páng biān de zào páo lǎo zhě ， qíng kuàng yě chà bu duō ， yī liǎn de huī bái zhī sè 。
而旁边的皂袍老者，情况也差不多，一脸的灰白之色。
"Have the remaining two of the Five Ghosts of the Abyss fallen?" Although he had witnessed it himself, he still needed to confirm.
bù guò liǎng rén de biǎo qíng ， què shì qīng sōng xǐ lè ， bù guǎn rú hé ， zǒng suàn shì jiāng qiáng dí miè shā diào le 。
不过两人的表情，却是轻松喜乐，不管如何，总算是将强敌灭杀掉了。
"Yes, Lord. Those two have completely perished, and not even their essence cores survived," Medusa said respectfully.
rán ér zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， què gǎn jué dào yī gǔ qiáng dà de qì xī 。
然而这个念头尚未转过，却感觉到一股强大的气息。
"That's good."
míng xuě dà jīng zhī xià tái qǐ tóu lú ， suí hòu lín xuān yǔ yuè ér de miàn róng jiù yìng rù le yǎn lián zhōng 。
冥雪大惊之下抬起头颅，随后林轩与月儿的面容就映入了眼帘中。
Lin Xuan sighed in relief; Moon's current danger was now fully resolved.
“ shǎo zhǔ ， wáng ， nǐ men liǎng wèi zěn me huì zài cǐ chù ？”
“少主，王，你们两位怎么会在此处？”
However, just as this thought crossed his mind, Lin Xuan felt dizzy and weak, as if all his strength had been drained. His consciousness gradually blurred, and he faintly heard Moon's cry but couldn't make out the details clearly...
míng xuě jīng xǐ jiāo jí ， chà yì zhī yú ， gèng duō de shì huān xǐ ， dāng chū ， shǎo zhǔ jí jí máng máng lí kāi zhè lǐ ， tā de xīn zhōng ， jiù yǒu bù hǎo de yù gǎn 。
冥雪惊喜交集，诧异之余，更多的是欢喜，当初，少主急急忙忙离开这里，她的心中，就有不好的预感。
Lin Xuan fainted.
rú jīn ， shǎo zhǔ yǔ wáng lián mèi chū xiàn ， zì rán zhèng míng wēi jī yǐ jīng jiě chú ， cǐ nǚ zěn me huì bù fā zì nèi xīn de gāo xìng ne ？
如今，少主与王联袂出现，自然证明危机已经解除，此女怎么会不发自内心的高兴呢？
...
ér nà zào páo lǎo zhě yě fēi le guò lái ， bào quán xíng lǐ “ mò yǔ jiàn guò wáng shàng ， shǎo zhǔ 。”
而那皂袍老者也飞了过来，抱拳行礼“墨羽见过王上，少主。”
A fragrant scent wafted into his nostrils, but Lin Xuan still felt heavy-headed. He took a deep breath and summoned all his energy to recover slightly. However, the unpleasant feeling in his chest persisted.
“ dào yǒu bù yòng kè qì 。”
“道友不用客气。”
"Master, you've finally woken up."
lín xuān cóng yuè ér nà lǐ ， yǐ jīng tīng shuō guò zhè wèi mò yǔ zhēn rén de míng qì 。
林轩从月儿那里，已经听说过这位墨羽真人的名气。
A sweet voice entered his ears as he opened his eyes, revealing Moon's beautiful face, filled with joy but red-rimmed from crying.
“ yōu tán wǔ guǐ zhōng shèng yú de liǎng gè ， yǐ jīng yǔn luò le me ？” suī rán lín xuān yǒu qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， dàn zì rán yào wèn yī xià cái néng chè dǐ ān xīn de 。
“幽谭五鬼中剩余的两个，已经陨落了么？”虽然林轩有亲眼目睹，但自然要问一下才能彻底安心的。
"I'm sorry for worrying you, Moon."
“ shì de ， shǎo zhǔ ， nà liǎng gè jiā huo yǐ chè dǐ yǔn luò ， lián yuán yīng dōu méi yǒu táo chū 。” míng xuě gōng jìng de shuō 。
“是的，少主，那两个家伙已彻底陨落，连元婴都没有逃出。”冥雪恭敬的说。
Lin Xuan reached out to wipe away her tears and then sat up. He turned around to survey the surroundings, realizing he was in a well-decorated girl's room.
“ zhè jiù hǎo 。”
“这就好。”
Of course, it was Moon's room.
lín xuān sōng le kǒu qì ， zhì cǐ ， yuè ér zhè cì suǒ miàn lín de wēi jī ， suàn shì chè dǐ jiě chú 。
林轩松了口气，至此，月儿这次所面临的危机，算是彻底解除。
Warm red candles filled the air with a pleasant fragrance.
rán ér zhè ge niàn tou gāng gāng zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān què gǎn jué tiān xuán dì zhuàn ， fǎng fú hún shēn de lì qì dōu bèi chōu zǒu ， yì shí yě zhú jiàn mó hú ， huǎng hū jiān ， tīng jiàn yuè ér de jīng hū ， dàn jù tǐ de ， què bù tài qīng chǔ ……
然而这个念头刚刚转过，林轩却感觉天旋地转，仿佛浑身的力气都被抽走，意识也逐渐模糊，恍惚间，听见月儿的惊呼，但具体的，却不太清楚……
"Be careful," Moon said as she helped him sit up, her face full of concern.
lín xuān hūn guò qù le 。
林轩昏过去了。
Lin Xuan smiled wryly. As a powerful cultivator who had just passed through the tribulation, he felt like he was in poor health after being sick.
……
……
However, objectively speaking, his condition was far worse than that of an ordinary sick person.
yī zhèn xiāng qì chuán rù bí zi lǐ ， lín xuān què yī jiù gǎn jué tóu zhòng jiǎo qīng ， shēn shēn hū xī ， tí qǐ hún shēn de fǎ lì ， zhè cái shāo wēi hǎo le xiē ， rán ér xiōng kǒu nà fán è de gǎn jué yī jiù huī zhī bù qù 。
一阵香气传入鼻子里，林轩却依旧感觉头重脚轻，深深呼吸，提起浑身的法力，这才稍微好了些，然而胸口那烦恶的感觉依旧挥之不去。
Indeed, Lin Xuan had defeated the Yellow Springs Mother Ghost but at a great cost. The True Spirit Sword Formation wasn't suitable for his current realm. Despite faring better against peers, his energy was still insufficient. Forced to do so, he ignited the root fire.
Thoughts raced through Lin Xuan's mind as a bright green glow enveloped his body. He was about to head out with Moon to investigate the situation when a deafening explosion suddenly reached his ears.
The sound seemed to come from an extremely distant place, yet it was clear even at a distance of several ten thousand miles.
The primordial qi in the heavens and earth became incredibly chaotic, no, it was rushing towards the faraway location.
