bù guǎn rú hé ， zhè cáng bǎo tú de lái lì ， dōu yǒu xiē tài guò guǐ yì ， qiě yǎn qián de yì xiàng ， yě tài míng xiǎn le xiē ， suī rán bù gǎn shuō ， zhè jiù yí dìng shì xiàn jǐng méi cuò ， dàn xiǎo xīn yī xiē ， zǒng hái shì yǒu bì yào de 。.
不管如何，这藏宝图的来历，都有些太过诡异，且眼前的异象，也太明显了些，虽然不敢说，这就一定是陷阱没错，但小心一些，总还是有必要的。.
No matter how, the origin of this treasure map was too mysterious. The obvious anomaly in front of them also made it seem a bit too suspicious. Although they couldn't say for certain that it was definitely a trap, being cautious was still necessary.
duì yú shào yé de pàn duàn ， yuè ér xiàng lái xìn fú ， zì rán bú huì tí chū yì yì shén me 。
对于少爷的判断，月儿向来信服，自然不会提出异议什么。
Moon always trusted her lord's judgment and naturally didn’t object to his suggestion.
yú shì liǎng rén méi yǒu zháo jí ， qiāo qiāo de yǐn cáng xíng jì ， bù jǐn bù màn de xiàng qián fāng de yì xiàng fēi le guò qù 。
于是两人没有着急，悄悄的隐藏行迹，不紧不慢的像前方的异象飞了过去。
Thus, the two moved stealthily, hiding their tracks as they flew towards the anomaly in front of them at a steady pace.
lín xuān néng gòu chén zhù qì ， rán ér bìng bú shì měi gè rén ， dōu yǒu zhe tā zhè yàng de xìng gé ， bǎo wù dāng qián ， néng gòu háo bù zài yì de rén ， dàng zhēn bù duō 。
林轩能够沉住气，然而并不是每个人，都有着他这样的姓格，宝物当前，能够毫不在意的人，当真不多。
Lin Xuan remained calm, but not everyone had such composure. In the face of treasure, few could remain indifferent.
tiān cái dì bǎo ， néng zhě jū zhī 。
天材地宝，能者居之。
Nurtured by heaven and earth, those who could seize it would do so. However, strength was just one significant advantage; it wasn't an absolute factor. Many other elements influenced the finalbelong to.
zài zhè qí zhōng ， shí lì shì yī hěn dà de yōu shì ， dàn yě bìng fēi jué duì zhī wù 。
在这其中，实力是一很大的优势，但也并非绝对之物。
For instance, seizing the initiative was crucial. A single step ahead could bring considerable benefits.
yǐng xiǎng bǎo wù zuì zhōng guī shǔ de yīn shù hái hěn duō 。
影响宝物最终归属的因数还很多。
At this moment, these cultivators with discovered anomalies thought like that. With such a mindset, how could they wait as Lin Xuan did? They were eager to compete and ignored potential dangers.
bǐ rú shuō duì yú xiān jī de bǎ wò 。
比如说对于先机的把握。
The cultivation world was inherently filled with bloodshed; if one didn't dare take risks, why come for the treasure at all?
yī bù lǐng xiān ， jiù yǒu kě néng jiàn lì qǐ hěn dà de hǎo chù 。
一步领先，就有可能建立起很大的好处。
Not only the old monsters of the Tribulation Period, but even those scattered Spirit Cultivators who had been hiding now showed great courage.
cǐ kè ， zhè xiē fā xiàn yì xiàng de xiū shì zhèng shì zhè me xiǎng de 。
此刻，这些发现异象的修士正是这么想的。
If they chose to stay here, it wasn’t because they wanted to hide forever. If they wished to leave safely, leaving the Ten Thousand Mountains would be the best choice.
jì rán yǒu le zhè ge niàn tou ， nǎ lǐ hái kěn xiàng lín xuān yī yàng màn tūn tūn de děng dài ne ， zhòng rén zhēng xiān shàng qiě bù jí ， zhì yú kě néng cún zài de wēi xiǎn ， dōu bèi tā men pāo zhū dào le nǎo hòu qù 。
既然有了这个念头，哪里还肯像林轩一样慢吞吞的等待呢，众人争先尚且不及，至于可能存在的危险，都被他们抛诸到了脑后去。
Their decision to remain indicated their resolve. This treasure hunt was fraught with difficulties; seizing treasures from tigers' mouths was no exaggeration.
xiū xiān jiè yuán běn jiù chōng mǎn le xīng fēng xuè yǔ ， lián yì diǎn wēi xiǎn dōu bù gǎn mào ， nà yòu hé bì lái duó bǎo ？
修仙界原本就充满了腥风血雨，连一点危险都不敢冒，那又何必来夺宝？
But what did that matter? Not taking a risk meant one wouldn’t know the outcome.
bù zhǐ shì dù jié qī lǎo guài wù ， biàn shì nà xiē dōng duǒ ** de fēn shén qī xiū shì ， cǐ kè dōu biàn dé shén yǒng qǐ lái le 。
不止是渡劫期老怪物，便是那些东躲**的分神期修士，此刻都变得神勇起来了。
While the power of Spirit Cultivators at the Scattering Essence stage was far inferior to those of the Tribulation Period, reaching this level required great effort.
tā men jì rán xuǎn zé liú zài zhè lǐ ， dāng rán bú huì shì xiǎng yào yì zhí duǒ cáng xià qù ， ruò shì xiǎng yào ān quán wú yú ， lí kāi shí wàn dà shān shì zuì hǎo dì 。
他们既然选择留在这里，当然不会是想要一直躲藏下去，若是想要安全无虞，离开十万大山是最好地。
Spirit Cultivators at the Scattering Essence stage were undoubtedly resilient individuals. Facing treasures now, they made up their minds and would fight with all their might.
tā men méi yǒu zhè me zuò ， yě jiù jiāng jué xīn biǎo míng liǎo 。
他们没有这么做，也就将决心表明了。
Of course, having determination was good, but in terms of strength, compared to the Great Beings of the Tribulation Period, they still fell short.
zhè yī cì xún bǎo ， yǒu hěn duō dù jié qī ， nán dù shì xiǎn ér yì jiàn dì 。
这一次寻宝，有很多渡劫期，难度是显而易见地。
Thus, many had not even reached the treasure site before being eliminated by nearby old Tribulation Period monsters due to revealing their tracks.
shuō hǔ kǒu duó shí yě bù wèi guò 。
说虎口夺食也不为过。
Blood and gore once again descended upon the Ten Thousand Mountains.
dàn nà yòu rú hé ， bù bó yī bó ， shuí zhī dào huì shì zěn me yàng de jié guǒ ？
但那又如何，不搏一搏，谁知道会是怎么样的结果？
This was not surprising; these Spirit Cultivators dared to come out at this risk. After all, wealth is sought in peril!
fēn shén shí lì què shí yuǎn méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ dù jié xiāng bǐ ， dàn néng gòu ** dào zhè yī bù ， nà yě shì hěn bù róng yì ，
分神实力确实远没有办法与渡劫相比，但能够**到这一步，那也是很不容易，
Of course, it wasn’t necessarily a dead end. Some managed to escape the net.
fēn shén qī xiū xiān zhě ， wú yí yě dōu shì xīn zhì jiān rèn de rén wù ， cǐ shí miàn duì bǎo wù ， xià jué xīn ， pīn mìng yě yào yī bó 。
分神期修仙者，无疑也都是心智坚韧的人物，此时面对宝物，下决心，拼命也要一搏。
There were factors of luck involved, as some had formidable abilities and excelled in escaping techniques. Even facing old Tribulation Period monsters, they could still find ways out.
dāng rán ， yǒu jué xīn shì hǎo de ， dàn zhēn lùn shí lì ， bǐ qǐ dù jié jí bié de dà néng rén wù ， tā men dào dǐ hái shì chà le yī chóu 。
当然，有决心是好的，但真论实力，比起渡劫级别的大能人物，他们到底还是差了一筹。
In any case, many Spirit Cultivators ultimately escaped the kill and prepared to seize treasures from these powerful old monsters.
yú shì hěn duō rén ， hái méi yǒu gǎn dào dì tóu ， kàn shàng yī yǎn mèng mèi yǐ qiú de bǎo wù ， jiù yīn wèi xíng jì bào lù ， bèi fù jìn de dù jié qī lǎo zǔ ， shùn shǒu qīng chú chū qù le 。
于是很多人，还没有赶到地头，看上一眼梦寐以求的宝物，就因为行迹暴露，被附近的渡劫期老祖，顺手清除出去了。
...
xīng fēng xuè yǔ ， zài yí cì jiàng lín yú shí wàn dà shān zhī zhōng 。
腥风血雨，再一次降临于十万大山之中。
It was undeniable that they showed great courage. One of them was Zhang Qi, a middle-stage Scattering Essence cultivator.
rán ér zhè yì diǎn yě bù lìng rén yì wài shén me ， nà xiē fēn shén qī xiū shì zhè shí hòu gǎn chū lái ， yuán běn jiù yào mào zhe yǔn luò de fēng xiǎn 。
然而这一点也不令人意外什么，那些分神期修士这时候敢出来，原本就要冒着陨落的风险。
His name had a "Qi" character, but his cultivation experience was unremarkable. Born into an average cultivation family with outstandingqualifications, he was groomed as a prodigy from a young age.
fù guì xiǎn zhōng qiú ！
富贵险中求！
Foundation Establishment, Core Condensation,infant Formation...
dāng rán ， zhè yě bù yí dìng shì yī tiáo sǐ lù ， lòu wǎng zhī yú hái shì yǒu 。
当然，这也不一定是一条死路，漏网之鱼还是有。
He advanced step by step until breaking through the Scattering Essence barrier, transforming from a prodigy to the pillar of the family. Now, he was one of the two senior elders.
zhè zhōng jiān ， yǒu yùn qì de yīn shù ， yě bù fá yī xiē fēn shén qī xiū shì de shí lì běn jiù bù sú ， shàn cháng tuō shēn zhī shù ， jí biàn miàn duì dù jié qī lǎo zǔ ， yě yǒu tuō shēn de bǎ wò 。
这中间，有运气的因数，也不乏一些分神期修士的实力本就不俗，擅长脱身之术，即便面对渡劫期老祖，也有脱身的把握。
From starting his cultivation journey to becoming a middle-stage Scattering Essence cultivator, Zhang Qi spent five ten-thousand years.
zǒng zhī bù guǎn yuán yīn shì shén me ， zuì zhōng hái shì yǒu bù shǎo fēn shén qī cún zài bǎi tuō le shā jú ， zhǔn bèi cóng zhòng dù jié qī lǎo guài wǒ shǒu lǐ ， xíng nà hǔ kǒu duó shí zhī shì 。
总之不管原因是什么，最终还是有不少分神期存在摆脱了杀局，准备从众渡劫期老怪我手里，行那虎口夺食之事。
Looking at the entire Three Realms and throughout history, this speed wasn’t particularly remarkable. However, it certainly wasn’t slow either.
bù dé bù shuō ， tā men hěn yǒu yǒng qì 。
不得不说，他们很有勇气。
But in retrospect, his journey was extraordinarilymundane.
zhāng qí jiù shì qí zhōng zhī yī 。
张奇就是其中之一。
At least that’s how Zhang Qi perceived it. Therefore, he ventured out to seek opportunities, hoping for a breakthrough into the Tribulation realm.
tā shì yī wèi fēn shén zhōng qī de xiū shì 。
他是一位分神中期的修士。
As fate would have it, he encountered the treasure map.
míng zì zhōng yǒu yí gè qí zì ， rán ér tā de xiū xiān de jīng lì ， qí shí què shì píng píng wú qí 。
名字中有一个奇字，然而他的修仙的经历，其实却是平平无奇。
Fortunately, his luck was good; with minimal effort, he managed to grab one of them despite lingering doubts.
chū shēn yú yú yī bù cuò de xiū xiān jiā zú ， zī zhì suàn shì chū zhòng dào le jí chù 。
出身于于一不错的修仙家族，资质算是出众到了极处。
Despite his skepticism, as an adventurer seeking opportunities, Zhang Qi decided to believe in it and came here.
yú shì cóng xiǎo ， jiù bèi jiā zú zuò wéi tiān cái ** lái péi yǎng de 。
于是从小，就被家族作为天才**来培养的。
The Ten Thousand Mountains were a notorious dangerous place in the Rain Pine World. But what shocked him even more was that he wasn’t alone.
zhù jī ， níng dān ， jié yīng ……
筑基，凝丹，结婴……
Was there a conspiracy?
yī lù zǒu lái ， zhí dào jiāng fēn shén de píng jǐng tū pò ， yóu tiān cái **，** wèi jiā zú de zhōng liú dǐ zhù ， rú jīn tā yǐ shì jiā zú de liǎng dà tài shàng zhǎng lǎo zhī yī liǎo 。
一路走来，直到将分神的瓶颈突破，由天才**，**为家族的中流砥柱，如今他已是家族的两大太上长老之一了。
Zhang Qi had also suspected this. However, the dazzling anomaly dispelled his doubts.
cóng tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù ， dào chéng wéi fēn shén zhōng qī de xiū xiān zhě ， zhāng qí yī gòng huā fèi le wǔ wàn nián 。
从踏上修仙之路，到成为分神中期的修仙者，张奇一共花费了五万年。
Subsequently, the Great Beings of the Tribulation Period began to eliminate weaker cultivators.
fàng yǎn sān jiè ， zòng héng jīn gǔ ， zhè ge sù dù ， zì rán shuō bù shàng yǒu hé guò rén zhī chù ， dāng rán ， yě jué bù néng shuō màn le 。
放眼三界，纵横今古，这个速度，自然说不上有何过人之处，当然，也绝不能说慢了。
Unfortunately, Zhang Qi was on their list.
dàn huí shǒu zhè yī lù zǒu lái de jīng lì ， què shì píng dàn yǐ jí 。
但回首这一路走来的经历，却是平淡以极。
The danger was obvious, but he didn’t leave.
zhì shǎo zhāng qí ， shì zhè me rèn wéi dì 。
至少张奇，是这么认为地。
With so many Great Beings here, it actually increased his interest in the treasure map. After all, these Great Beings weren’t fools; they must have a purpose for doing this.
suǒ yǐ tā wài chū yóu lì ， zhǔn bèi xún zhǎo jī yuán ， shí lì dào le tā zhè ge děng jí ， duì yú jiāng dù jié jìng jiè de tū pò ， kěn dìng shì hán yǒu qī dài de 。
所以他外出游历，准备寻找机缘，实力到了他这个等级，对于将渡劫境界的突破，肯定是含有期待的。
There were indeed powerful treasures hidden within the Ten Thousand Mountains.
jié guǒ ， jiù yù jiàn le cáng bǎo tú 。
结果，就遇见了藏宝图。
Zhang Qi ventured inside.
suí hòu tā de yùn qì hái bú cuò ， méi huā fèi duō shǎo gōng fu ， jiù qiǎng dào le qí zhōng yí gè 。
随后他的运气还不错，没花费多少功夫，就抢到了其中一个。
...
suī rán bàn xìn bàn yí ， dàn zhāng qí yuán běn jiù shì wài chū yóu lì ， yú shì gū qiě xìn zhī ， lái dào le zhè lǐ 。
虽然半信半疑，但张奇原本就是外出游历，于是姑且信之，来到了这里。
His actions were swift. The Ten Thousand Mountains were rugged with miasma as cover. Inside, he successfully evaded his pursuers.
shí wàn dà shān ， yǔ tóng jiè zhù míng de xiǎn dì 。
十万大山，雨桐界著名的险地。
Then Zhang Qi wandered around, looking for opportunities to find the treasure. However, he found nothing, which was strange. Despite clearly remembering the location of the anomaly and entering the mountains, he inexplicably became disoriented.
ér lìng tā dà chī yī jīng de shì ， yuǎn bù zhǐ zì jǐ 。
而令他大吃一惊的是，远不止自己。
He couldn’t even distinguish directions, let alone search for treasures.
nán dào yǒu yīn móu ？
难道有阴谋？
And that anomaly never appeared again.
zhāng qí yě huái yí guò 。
张奇也怀疑过。
Zhang Qi’s frustration was evident, but as a Scattering Essence cultivator, at least he remained calm.
dàn nà yào mù de yì xiàng ， què jiāng zhè ge gù lǜ dǎ xiāo diào le 。
但那耀目的异象，却将这个顾虑打消掉了。
So he waited patiently for his chance.
suí hòu ， dù jié qī dà néng men kāi shǐ qīng chú shí lì jiào ruò de rén wù 。
随后，渡劫期大能们开始清除实力较弱的人物。
A day, two days, and it turned into half a month...
hěn bù xìng ， zì jǐ yě zài zhè míng dān zhōng de 。
很不幸，自己也在这名单中的。
Then the opportunity arose.
wēi xiǎn bù yòng tí 。
危险不用提。
The long-lasting anomaly reappeared in mid-air, dazzlingly bright. Zhang Qi immediately rushed forward.
dàn zhāng qí bìng wèi lí qù 。
但张奇并未离去。
He hadn’t thought that appearing now would be dangerous, but the opportunity was there. Whether he could seize it depended on his reaction—simply put, how quick he was willing to act. Taking a risk was fully justified.
zhè me duō dù jié qī dà néng lái dào zhè lǐ ， fǎn ér zēng qiáng le tā duì cáng bǎo tú de xìng qù 。
这么多渡劫期大能来到这里，反而增强了他对藏宝图的兴趣。
Zhang Qi’s luck was good. Many stronger late-stage Scattering Essence cultivators encountered obstacles and even perished, while he moved unimpeded straight to the location of the anomaly.
bì jìng dà néng men bú shì bái chī ， rú cǐ zuò ， kěn dìng shì yǒu dì fàng shǐ 。
毕竟大能们不是白痴，如此做，肯定是有的放矢。
Such smooth sailing?
zhēn yǒu lì hài de bǎo wù zài shí wàn dà shān lǐ 。
真有厉害的宝物在十万大山里。
Zhang Qi’s first thought was whether there were any ambushes. He didn’t believe his luck could be so extraordinary.
zhāng qí pǎo le jìn qù 。
张奇跑了进去。
He released his divine sense to carefully search within a thousand miles but found nothing out of the ordinary.
tā de dòng zuò suàn xùn sù 。
他的动作算迅速。
Was it really just good fortune?
ér shí wàn dà shān lián mián qǐ fú ， yòu yǒu zhàng qì zuò wéi yǎn hù ， jìn qù yǐ hòu ， guǒ rán chéng gōng jiāng zhuī shā táo tuō 。
而十万大山连绵起伏，又有瘴气作为掩护，进去以后，果然成功将追杀逃脱。
Pacing his hand across his forehead, Zhang Qi quickly became engrossed in what lay before him—treasure!
suí hòu zhāng qí biàn zài lǐ miàn huàng yōu ， kàn yǒu méi yǒu jī huì xún dào bǎo wù ， jié guǒ zì rán shì yī wú suǒ huò ， shuō lái yě shì guài le ， zì jǐ míng míng jiāng yì xiàng de fāng wèi jì de hěn qīng chǔ ， kě yǐ jìn rù dà shān zhī zhōng ， zhěng gè rén què mò míng qí miào de yūn diào le 。
随后张奇便在里面晃悠，看有没有机会寻到宝物，结果自然是一无所获，说来也是怪了，自己明明将异象的方位记得很清楚，可以进入大山之中，整个人却莫名其妙的晕掉了。
Just ahead, only a few hundred feet away, a treasure lay hidden beneath the soil. The dazzling light emanated from its surface.
lián dōng xī nán běi dōu fēn bù qīng chǔ ， gèng bú yào shuō xún zhǎo bǎo wù 。
连东西南北都分不清楚，更不要说寻找宝物。
Simultaneously, a voice as resonant as a bell echoed out, confirming beyond doubt that this was indeed the anomaly.
ér nà yì xiàng yě méi yǒu zài chū xiàn guò 。
而那异象也没有再出现过。
But could one find such simple treasures so easily?
No matter how, the origin of this treasure map was too mysterious. The obvious anomaly in front of them also made it seem a bit too suspicious. Although they couldn't say for certain that it was definitely a trap, being cautious was still necessary.
Moon always trusted her lord's judgment and naturally didn’t object to his suggestion.
