bù rù hǔ xué yān dé hǔ zi ， lín xuān yǐ jué dìng yào mào xiǎn yī shì 。
不入虎穴焉得虎子，林轩已决定要冒险一试。
Entering the tiger's den to catch its cub, Lin Xuan had decided to take a risky attempt.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān què bìng méi yǒu qīng jǔ wàng dòng shén me 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩却并没有轻举妄动什么。
Thoughts raced through his mind, but he did not act rashly. The Mountain Giant Ape and the Flame Giant were no trifles; brute strength was not the smart choice in this situation. He needed to wait for an opportune moment to increase his chances of success.
shān yuè jù yuán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， nà huǒ yàn jù rén yì fēi yì yú zhī wù ， lì dí bú shì cōng míng rén de xuǎn zé 。
山岳巨猿非同小可，那火焰巨人亦非易于之物，力敌不是聪明人的选择。
With the enemy's position clear while his remained hidden, Lin Xuan was not anxious. Time passed slowly as deafening roars echoed continuously in his ears. Both sides had unleashed their true flames, each move imbued with cosmic laws.
děng dài hé shì de shí jī cái néng yǒu jiào gāo de chéng gōng lǜ 。
等待合适的时机才能有较高的成功率。
Despite its advantage in terrain, the Flame Giant's strength paled in comparison to the Mountain Giant Ape’s. As time wore on, the situation grew increasingly unfavorable for it. It was only a matter of time before it would fall.
rú jīn dí míng wǒ àn ， lín xuān bìng bù zháo jí 。
如今敌明我暗，林轩并不着急。
Roar!
shí jiān yì diǎn yī dī de guò qù ， zhèn ěr yù lóng de páo xiāo shēng bù tíng de chuán rù ěr lǐ 。
时间一点一滴的过去，震耳欲聋的咆哮声不停的传入耳里。
The earth-shaking roar reverberated through his ears as the Mountain Giant Ape shook its shoulder, its form blurring momentarily. It retracted its three-headed six-armed avatar. However, its size doubled, and its fur stood on end. Golden runes floated from its body.
shuāng fāng dōu dǎ chū le zhēn huǒ 。
双方都打出了真火。
With a swift motion, these runes flew back into its surface, enveloped by golden light. Soon, the Mountain Giant Ape was wrapped in a layer of golden flames. At first glance, it resembled the righteous energy of Confucianism, but with far greater potency.
yī zhāo yī shì jiē yùn hán yǒu tiān dì fǎ zé 。
一招一式皆蕴含有天地法则。
What spell is this?
nà huǒ yàn jù rén suī zhàn yǒu dì lì ， dàn lùn shí lì ， què shí méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ shān yuè jù yuán xiāng bǐ ， suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， xíng shì duì tā yuè fā de bù lì 。
那火焰巨人虽占有地利，但论实力，确实没有办法与山岳巨猿相比，随着时间的推移，形势对它越发的不利。
Lin Xuan watched in shock as the pressure on the Flame Giant intensified. Its face finally showed genuine fear. It raised its hands and thrust them forward...
zuǒ zhī yòu chù ， luò bài yǐ jǐn jǐn shì shí jiān de wèn tí le 。
左支右绌，落败已仅仅是时间的问题了。
Boom!
hǒu ！
吼！
As it moved, the entire lava lake began to boil violently. Waves crashed furiously, revealing burning flames that morphed into countless ghost-faced bees.
zhèn tiān dòng dì de páo xiāo chuán rù ěr duǒ ， shān yuè jù yuán jiān tóu yī dǒu ， shēn xíng mó hú ， jū rán jiāng sān tóu liù bì de fǎ xiàng shōu qǐ lái le 。
震天动地的咆哮传入耳朵，山岳巨猿肩头一抖，身形模糊，居然将三头六臂的法相收起来了。
Buzzing loudly, they lunged at their opponent with ferocity. Though impressive, this was merely a last-ditch effort. Effective against ordinary cultivators, it would be laughable against the Mountain Giant Ape in full strength.
rán ér tā de tǐ xíng què zài yuán yǒu de jī chǔ shàng biàn dà le yí bèi yǒu yú ， máo fà gēn gēn dào shù ， shēn tǐ biǎo miàn yǒu wú shù de jīn sè fú wén piāo sàn ér chū 。
然而它的体型却在原有的基础上变大了一倍有余，毛发根根倒竖，身体表面有无数的金色符文飘散而出。
Lin Xuan's nerves tightened as he anticipated the critical moment.
yíng fēng yī shǎn ， nà xiē fú wén yòu dào fēi le huí lái ， mò rù tā de shēn tǐ biǎo miàn 。
迎风一闪，那些符文又倒飞了回来，没入它的身体表面。
---
suí hòu jīn guāng dà zuò ， shān yuè jù yuán de shēn tǐ ， bèi yī céng jīn sè de qì yàn bāo guǒ 。
随后金光大做，山岳巨猿的身体，被一层金色的气焰包裹。
Facing the overwhelming waves and ghost-faced bees, the Mountain Giant Ape remained unperturbed. It only slightly shifted its body, retracting its right fist before forcefully thrusting it out again.
chū yī kàn ， yǔ rú jiā de hào rán zhèng qì yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù ， dàn wēi lì yào kě pà xǔ duō 。
初一看，与儒家的浩然正气有几分相似之处，但威力要可怕许多。
Instantly, a golden vortex appeared in the void. Though no more than a yard wide, it emitted an immense suction force. The power was indescribable; even cosmic laws seemed to fragment under its influence.
zhè shì shén me fǎ shù ？
这是什么法术？
"This... is a domain? No, it's not like those legends speak of. It’s more like a mimicry. Could this be because the Mountain Giant Ape has injuries?"
lín xuān zài yī páng kàn zhe ， yě hài rán shī sè ， nà huǒ yàn jù rén suǒ chéng shòu de yā lì ， jiù kě xiǎng ér zhī le 。
林轩在一旁看着，也骇然失色，那火焰巨人所承受的压力，就可想而知了。
This explained why the Mountain Giant Ape had come to the True Spirit's burial ground.
tā de liǎn shàng ， zhōng yú rú jiǎ bāo huàn de lù chū jí wéi wèi jù de shén sè ， shuāng shǒu píng jǔ ， měng rán xiàng qián tuī chū ……
它的脸上，终于如假包换的露出极为畏惧的神色，双手平举，猛然向前推出……
Realizing this, Lin Xuan felt a chill run down his spine. Injured and still so formidable, if it were unharmed, he would not dare think of attacking it. The Mountain Giant Ape was one of the top True Spirits.
hōng ！
轰！
His thoughts raced as the outcome became clear. Despite not being a true domain, the vortex could disrupt cosmic laws; mere ghost-faced bees made of flames were useless and vanished instantly.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， zhěng gè yán jiāng hú ， sà rán fèi téng qǐ lái le 。
随着它的动作，整个岩浆湖，飒然沸腾起来了。
Then the vortex split open, emitting countless golden spears.
è làng tāo tiān ！
恶浪滔天！
Snap!
làng huā zhōng ， fú xiàn chū xióng xióng rán shāo de huǒ yàn ， suí hòu nà huǒ yàn lüè yī mó hú ， jū rán huàn huà chū wú shù de guǐ miàn fēng lái le 。
浪花中，浮现出熊熊燃烧的火焰，随后那火焰略一模糊，居然幻化出无数的鬼面蜂来了。
The piercing sound echoed as these spears pierced the Flame Giant with numerous holes. The surface of the spears released threads of cosmic power, but even in the lava lake, its wounds could not heal.
wēng míng shēng dà zuò 。 è hěn hěn de xiàng duì shǒu pū guò qù le 。
嗡鸣声大做。恶狠狠的像对手扑过去了。
Its face showed a despairing expression.
kàn shàng qù shēng shì bù sú ， dàn bù guò shì qiáng nǔ zhī mò ， yòng yú duì fù yì bān de xiū xiān zhě ， kě yǐ qǐ dào jué shā de xiào guǒ ， dàn miàn duì quán shèng zhuàng tài de shān yuè jù yuán ， shuō bān mén nòng fǔ ， nà shì yì diǎn yě méi yǒu yuān wǎng tā de 。
看上去声势不俗，但不过是强弩之末，用于对付一般的修仙者，可以起到绝杀的效果，但面对全盛状态的山岳巨猿，说班门弄斧，那是一点也没有冤枉它的。
Ahhh!
lín xuān de shén jīng 。 yī xià zi bēng jǐn le ， ruò shì méi yǒu liào cuò ， hěn kuài jiù yào dào zuì wèi guān jiàn de shí kè 。
林轩的神经。一下子绷紧了，若是没有料错，很快就要到最为关键的时刻。
It raised its head and let out anunwillingly roared with indignation (unwilling roar). Its body shook before it fell into the lava with a crash, never to rise again.
miàn duì nà tāo tiān de è làng yǔ guǐ miàn fēng de jué shā ， shān yuè jù yuán lián yǎn jīng dōu méi yǒu zhǎ 。
面对那滔天的恶浪与鬼面蜂的绝杀，山岳巨猿连眼睛都没有眨。
The battle was over!
jǐn jǐn shì wēi wēi cè guò shēn tǐ ， jiāng yòu quán suō le huí qù ， suí hòu zài yáng shēng tǔ qì 。 zài hěn hěn de xiàng qián dǎ le chū qù 。
仅仅是微微侧过身体，将右拳缩了回去，随后再扬声吐气。再狠狠的向前打了出去。
The Mountain Giant Ape pounded his chest in joyous praise. However, he was too early for his celebration.
shà shí jiān ， xū kōng yī zhèn mó hú ， yí gè jīn sè de xuán wō fú xiàn ér chū 。
霎时间，虚空一阵模糊，一个金色的漩涡浮现而出。
Boom!
zhí jìng bù guò zhàng xǔ ， què fú xiàn chū wú qióng de xī lì 。
直径不过丈许，却浮现出无穷的吸力。
A loud explosion filled the air as the Flame Giant's remains exploded. Then, a flash of light revealed a fist-sized golden flame that flew towards the horizon at incredible speed.
nà lì liàng zhī kě pà ， nán yǐ yòng yán yǔ shuō dé qīng chǔ ， zài nà xī lì de yǐng xiǎng xià ， lián tiān dì fǎ zé 。 dōu biàn dé zhī lí pò suì le 。
那力量之可怕，难以用言语说得清楚，在那吸力的影响下，连天地法则。都变得支离破碎了。
---
“ zhè shì …… lǐng yù ， bú duì ， yǔ chuán shuō zhōng de lǐng yù bìng bù xiāng tóng ， shuō shì shì ér fēi yě bù wèi guò ， nán dào shuō …… zhè shān yuè jù yuán shēn shàng yǒu shāng me ？”
“这是……领域，不对，与传说中的领域并不相同，说是似而非也不为过，难道说……这山岳巨猿身上有伤么？”
Similar to an incipient spirit leaving its body, this was the essence of fire spirit. The Mountain Giant Ape would not let it go, but something unexpected happened.
zhè yě jiù kě yǐ jiě shì ， shān yuè jù yuán lái zhēn líng de mái gǔ zhī dì zuò shén me 。
这也就可以解释，山岳巨猿来真灵的埋骨之地做什么。
A green glow flashed as a sword appeared like a celestial dragon and sliced in front of him.
yī niàn zhì cǐ ， lín xuān xīn zhōng bù yóu de yǒu xiē fā hán ， shēn shòu zhòng shāng 。 hái zhè me biāo hàn ， ruò shì wán hǎo wú sǔn ， nà hái liǎo de ， shí yǒu ** jiù néng shī zhǎn chū zhēn zhèng de lǐng yù 。
一念至此，林轩心中不由得有些发寒，身受重伤。还这么彪悍，若是完好无损，那还了得，十有**就能施展出真正的领域。
The blade shone like snow, invoking cosmic laws with shocking force, aiming for the Flame Giant's head.
ruò shì nà yàng de huà ， zì jǐ nǎ lǐ hái gǎn dǎ tā de zhǔ yì ， shān yuè jù yuán ， bù kuì shì zhēn líng zhōng pái míng qián liè de qiáng zhě zhī yī 。
若是那样的话，自己哪里还敢打它的主意，山岳巨猿，不愧是真灵中排名前列的强者之一。
Caught off guard, the Mountain Giant Ape retreated several steps, avoiding the direct assault. This delay allowed the sword to change direction, transforming into a green glass hand that grabbed the escaping golden flame and flew away.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò 。 qián fāng zé shèng fù yǐ fēn le 。
脑海中念头转过。前方则胜负已分了。
The entire process was swift; what seemed complex took only an instant.
nà jīn sè de xuán wō suī bú shì zhēn zhèng de lǐng yù ， dàn néng gòu chōng sàn tiān dì fǎ zé ， qū qū yī xiē huǒ yàn huà zuò de guǐ miàn fēng yòu yǒu shén me yòng chǔ ， qǐng kè jiān jiù quán bù xiāo róng diào le 。
那金色的漩涡虽不是真正的领域，但能够冲散天地法则，区区一些火焰化作的鬼面蜂又有什么用处，顷刻间就全部消融掉了。
Lin Xuan seized his opportunity perfectly, capturing the innate fire spirit.
suí hòu xuán wō liè kāi 。 wú shù jīn guāng què cóng lǐ miàn chōng le chū lái 。
随后漩涡裂开。无数金光却从里面冲了出来。
However, with benefits came risks. By doing so, he had thoroughly angered the Mountain Giant Ape.
shì yī bǐng bǐng de cháng máo ， jīn guāng shǎn shǎn 。
是一柄柄的长矛，金光闪闪。
Roar!
sōu ……
嗖……
Another earth-shaking roar filled the air as the Mountain Giant Ape enveloped itself in golden light, chasing Lin Xuan with ferocity.
pò kōng shēng dà zuò ， qǐng kè jiān jiù jiāng nà huǒ yàn jù rén cì le yí gè qiān chuāng bǎi kǒng 。
破空声大做，顷刻间就将那火焰巨人刺了一个千疮百孔。
Lin Xuan smiled and sped away using his full speed.
cháng máo de biǎo miàn ， yǒu sī sī fǎ zé zhī lì shì fàng ér chū ， nà huǒ yàn jù rén suī zhì shēn yú yán jiāng hú ， shāng kǒu què yě wú fǎ huī fù 。
长矛的表面，有丝丝法则之力释放而出，那火焰巨人虽置身于岩浆湖，伤口却也无法恢复。
True Spirits also have weaknesses; though powerful, the Mountain Giant Ape was too impulsive. Other True Spirits might not be so easily lured away.
liǎn shàng fēi cháng fú chū nǐ rén huà de lù chū jué wàng zhī sè 。
脸上非常浮出拟人化的露出绝望之色。
Soon, they were far apart, and the lava lake quieted down. But this was only the beginning. Suddenly, a dark cloud appeared without warning.
áo ！
嗷！
The cloud dispersed to reveal another Lin Xuan.
yáng qǐ tóu ， fā chū bù gān de sī hǒu 。
扬起头，发出不甘的嘶吼。
His appearance and physique identical to his original self, but with slightly darker skin—this was undoubtedly his body manifestation.
shēn tǐ yáo huàng mó hú ， suí hòu “ hōng ” de yī shēng zāi dǎo ， diào rù yán jiāng hú ， suí hòu jiù zài yě méi yǒu zhàn qǐ lái le 。
身体摇晃模糊，随后“轰”的一声栽倒，掉入岩浆湖，随后就再也没有站起来了。
By doing that, he had lured the opponent away so he could search for the treasure mentioned in the phrase. Of course, this came with significant risks.
shèng fù yǐ fēn ！
胜负已分！
But compared to the potential gains, it was worth it. He knew his own powers well; while he couldn't defeat the Mountain Giant Ape, fleeing would leave him unscathed.
shān yuè jù yuán shuāng shǒu wò quán ， měng chuí xiōng táng rú tóng léi gǔ ， yī liǎn de huān xǐ zàn tàn zhī sè 。
山岳巨猿双手握拳，猛捶胸膛如同擂鼓，一脸的欢喜赞叹之色。
Lin Xuan had confidence in that. However, he needed to act quickly on his manifestation side, as unpredictable events could occur at any moment.
rán ér tā gāo xìng dé tài zǎo le 。
然而它高兴得太早了。
