shì xiān bàn fēn zhēng zhào yě wú ， tiān sè què yī xià zi huì àn le xǔ duō 。
事先半分征兆也无，天色却一下子晦暗了许多。
The sky suddenly darkened, and Lin Xuan and the two women instinctively raised their heads. The horizon was already shrouded in thick clouds.
lín xuān yǔ liǎng nǚ bù yuē ér tóng de tái qǐ tóu lú ， jiù jiàn tiān biān yǐ shì yīn yún mì bù 。
林轩与两女不约而同的抬起头颅，就见天边已是阴云密布。
Their vision began to blur as a faint, ominous mist spread over several miles around them. Lin Xuan frowned and released his divine sense, but found it useless against the mist. This ghostly fog was common in the Netherworld, but what they faced now seemed different; not only did it weaken their divine senses, but it appeared almost alive. Both Lin Xuan and the two women had to release their protective spirit light, or risk being injured without cause.
shì xiàn biàn dé mó hú ， bù zhī hé shí ， fāng yuán shù lǐ ， jìng mí màn qǐ le huì àn de guǐ wù 。
视线变得模糊，不知何时，方圆数里，竟弥漫起了晦暗的鬼雾。
For better or worse, danger had come as soon as they entered the True Spirit Burial Grounds.
lín xuān méi tou yí zhòu ， jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， què fā xiàn méi yǒu yòng tú ， nà guǐ wù zài yīn sī dì fǔ ， yuán běn shì cháng jiàn zhī wù ， rán ér yǎn qián de ， què bìng bù xiāng tóng ， bù jǐn duì yú shén shí ， yǒu zhe xuē ruò de xiào guǒ ， ér qiě fǎng rú huó wù ， lín xuān yǔ èr nǚ ， dōu bù dé bù jiāng hù tǐ líng guāng fàng chū ， fǒu zé ， fēi mò míng qí miào de shòu shāng bù kě 。
林轩眉头一皱，将神识放出，却发现没有用途，那鬼雾在阴司地府，原本是常见之物，然而眼前的，却并不相同，不仅对于神识，有着削弱的效果，而且仿如活物，林轩与二女，都不得不将护体灵光放出，否则，非莫名其妙的受伤不可。
Lin Xuan exchanged a glance with the two women; their expressions turned resolute. There was no choice but to fight quickly and decisively.
shì fú bú shì huò ， shì huò duǒ bù guò 。
是福不是祸，是祸躲不过。
Fortunately, this desert was vast enough that they could delay for some time without alerting other monsters.
méi xiǎng dào cái jìn rù zhēn líng mái gǔ zhī suǒ ， wēi xiǎn jiù lái le 。
没想到才进入真灵埋骨之所，危险就来了。
"Let's make our move together!"
lín xuān yǔ èr nǚ duì shì yī yǎn ， biǎo qíng dōu biàn dé jiān dìng qǐ lái 。
林轩与二女对视一眼，表情都变得坚定起来。
Before Lin Xuan’s words were fully spoken, he emitted a faint green glow and flew towards the center of the ghostly fog. Although it wasn't clear from afar, there seemed to be a massive creature there.
rú jīn yǐ méi fǎ duǒ ， sù zhàn sù jué ， shì wéi yī de xuǎn zé 。
如今已没法躲，速战速决，是唯一的选择。
Acting first was always wise.
hǎo zài zhè shā mò miàn jī jí wéi guǎng bó ， zhǐ yào dān gē de shí jiān bù jiǔ ， yīng gāi bú huì jīng dòng qí tā de guài wù 。
好在这沙漠面积极为广博，只要耽搁的时间不久，应该不会惊动其他的怪物。
With his divine movement technique, he reached the target in an instant.
bù guò huà shì zhè yàng méi cuò ， jǐn liàng xiǎo xīn yě shì wéi yī de xuǎn zé 。
不过话是这样没错，尽量小心也是唯一的选择。
Soon, the massive creature came into view. However, Lin Xuan's expression changed when he saw it more clearly.
“ yì qǐ dòng shǒu ！”
“一起动手！”
Was this a true spirit?
lín xuān huà yīn wèi luò ， hún shēn qīng máng yì qǐ ， yǐ xiàng nà guǐ wù de zhōng xīn fēi le guò qù 。
林轩话音未落，浑身青芒一起，已像那鬼雾的中心飞了过去。
It was a bizarre-looking creature, actually a demon insect. Its appearance was truly grotesque. At first glance, it resembled a giant scorpion, but upon closer inspection, there were notable differences. It had two wings on its back and six tails. The strangest part was the ghostly face pattern behind it.
suī rán kàn de bù shèn qīng chǔ ， dàn nà ér xiǎn rán yǒu yī páng rán dà wù 。
虽然看的不甚清楚，但那儿显然有一庞然大物。
Lin Xuan had never seen such a demon insect before, and clearly, it had nothing to do with true spirits.
xiān xià shǒu wéi qiáng zǒng shì méi cuò 。
先下手为强总是没错。
There were other creatures here?
yǐ lín xuān de shén xíng dùn shù ， duǎn duǎn shù lǐ ， zì rán shì zhuǎn shùn jí zhì 。
以林轩的神行遁术，短短数里，自然是转瞬即至。
This was something he hadn't anticipated.
hěn kuài ， nà páng rán dà wù yǐ shì lì lì zài mù 。
很快，那庞然大物已是历历在目。
Despite his grim expression, Lin Xuan couldn’t afford to retreat. He hesitated for a moment before swiftly waving his sleeves downward.
rán ér kàn qīng chǔ ， lín xuān biǎo qíng què shì yī è 。
然而看清楚，林轩表情却是一愕。
A silver glow erupted.
zhè jiā huo shì zhēn líng me ？
这家伙是真灵么？
No clear ringing sound reached their ears, but several dozen Nine Palaces Needles appeared in their line of sight, like fish swimming towards the target.
nà shì yī qí xíng guài zhuàng de jiā huo ， zhèng què de shuō ， shì yī mó chóng 。
那是一奇形怪状的家伙，正确的说，是一魔虫。
Each needle was dazzlingly bright and emitted electric arcs as they shot toward the same direction.
yàng zi dàng zhēn shì gǔ guài dào le jí chù 。
样子当真是古怪到了极处。
Following them, a large silver ball materialized before their eyes. It was about ten meters in diameter, with a swirling light that exuded a cold aura. Countless silver lines burst forth from it, revealing dozens of sword lights like dragons swimming and chasing each other inside. The essence of the Sword Law permeated the area.
huǎng yǎn yī kàn ， jiù yǔ yī jù dà de xiē zi xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
晃眼一看，就与一巨大的蝎子相差仿佛。
Indeed, it was the Sword Law, almost reaching its peak. This technique wasn't recorded in the Moonlight Sky Witch Art, but rather a creation by Lin Xuan himself. It resembled the Great Sword Technique to some extent but with even greater power.
dàn zǐ xì yī qiáo ， yòu yǔ pǔ tōng de xiē zi pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn bù tóng zhī chù 。
但仔细一瞧，又与普通的蝎子颇有几分不同之处。
"Fall!"
bù jǐn bèi shēng shuāng yì ， wěi ba yì yǒu liù tiáo zhī duō ， rán ér zhè hái bú shì zuì gǔ guài zhī chù ， tā bèi hòu de tú àn 。 jū rán shì yī zhāng jù dà de guǐ liǎn 。
不仅背生双翼，尾巴亦有六条之多，然而这还不是最古怪之处，它背后的图案。居然是一张巨大的鬼脸。
Lin Xuan pointed his finger forward with a serious expression. Before he could finish speaking, the silver ball blurred and appeared about a hundred meters in front of the ghost-faced scorpion.
zhè zhǒng mó chóng lín xuān bìng wèi jiàn guò ， dàn xiǎn rán yǔ zhēn líng yì diǎn guān xì yě wú 。
这种魔虫林轩并未见过，但显然与真灵一点关系也无。
Spatial teleportation?
cǐ chù ， jū rán hái yǒu bié de shēng wù ？
此处，居然还有别的生物？
No, it was far more advanced. It seemed to contain a hint of spatial law!
zhè què shì xiān qián ， bù céng xiǎng dào de 。
这却是先前，不曾想到的。
Lin Xuan's current strength was formidable; this single move contained two different cosmic laws, making its power far greater than simply stacking them together. However, executing such a technique required immense skill and practice.
lín xuān liǎn sè nán kàn yǐ jí ， dàn zhè shí hòu dāng rán bù kě néng wèi suō tuì bì 。
林轩脸色难看以极，但这时候当然不可能畏缩退避。
He hadn't used it against the Spirit Race Ancestor before, considering it his hidden treasure. But now, with no time to spare, he couldn’t hide his true strength. The move was one of his well-guarded techniques.
lüè yī chí yí ， xiù páo jiù cháo zhe xià fāng jí dǒu ér qù 。
略一迟疑，袖袍就朝着下方急抖而去。
What would be its effect?
yín máng zhòu qǐ 。
银芒骤起。
Lin Xuan didn't know for sure but decided to wait and see.
zhè yī cì ， bìng méi yǒu qīng míng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， dàn shù shí kǒu jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn què yǒu rú yóu yú ， shùn lǐ chéng zhāng de chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
这一次，并没有清鸣声传入耳朵，但数十口九宫须臾剑却有如游鱼，顺理成章的出现在了视线里。
However, this wasn't a martial arts contest.
měi yī bǐng jiē yào yǎn wú bǐ 。
每一柄皆耀眼无比。
Moon and the Spirit Race High Priestess quickly moved beside him. Knowing the situation was urgent, they showed no hesitation.
biǎo miàn hái shǎn yào zhe diàn hú ， cháo zhe tóng yī fāng xiàng jī shè ér qù 。
表面还闪耀着电弧，朝着同一方向激射而去。
Moon raised her hand, and amystic yin treasure box (Dark Yin Treasure Box) appeared from between her fingers. A brilliant sword light followed, slicing towards the target with perfect timing and coordination.
suí hòu 。 yī yín sè de guāng qiú chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
随后。一银色的光球出现在了视线里。
Beside them, the Spirit Race High Priestess wasn't idle either. Although Lin Xuan had reluctantly agreed to cooperate, he harbored some reservations about it. Hiding his true strength now would only make him more dissatisfied. Plus, if they delayed too long, it could be detrimental to himself.
zhí jìng yuē shí zhàng yǒu yú 。
直径约十丈有余。
With this in mind, the Spirit Race High Priestess moved her hands like butterflies, and a massive figure materialized behind her. It was ten meters tall with a fearsome appearance, holding a giant axe in its hands.
guāng yùn liú zhuǎn ， sàn fà zhe qīng lěng zhī qì 。
光晕流转，散发着清冷之气。
Electric sparks flashed as the monster swung its axe downward, aiming for the enemy.
wú shù de yín wén pēn yǒng ér chū ， guāng qiú lǐ miàn ， gèng kě yǐ kàn jiàn shù shí dào jiàn guāng rú jiāo lóng yì bān yóu yì zhuī zhú ， jiàn zhī fǎ zé de qì xī suí zhī mí sàn ér chū 。
无数的银纹喷涌而出，光球里面，更可以看见数十道剑光如蛟龙一般游弋追逐，剑之法则的气息随之弥散而出。
A black blade of the axe emerged from the wind, quickly growing to over ten meters long. The sheer power and destructive force were indescribable; even the void seemed fragmented.
méi cuò ， jiù shì jiàn zhī fǎ zé ， ér qiě jī hū dào le dēng fēng zào jí de dì bù 。
没错，就是剑之法则，而且几乎到了登峰造极的地步。
The demon scorpion saw the ghostly face expression of fear and tried to retreat, but it was too late. There was no turning back once an arrow is shot. Allowing it to escape would bring immense trouble.
ér yǎn qián de shén tōng ， yě bìng fēi mò yuè tiān wū jué zhōng jì zǎi ， ér shì lín xuān zì chuàng chū lái 。
而眼前的神通，也并非墨月天巫诀中记载，而是林轩自创出来。
"Want to run?"
yǔ jù jiàn shù yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。 dàn wēi lì gèng jiā de páng bó 。
与巨剑术有几分相似之处。但威力更加的磅礴。
Lin Xuan sneered. He raised his right hand, firing several magical seals from his fingertips.
“ luò ！”
“落！”
A loud crack echoed as silver threads burst forth from the surface of the silver ball. The number was beyond counting; this technique resembled transforming swords into threads but had subtle differences.
lín xuān shén sè níng zhòng de yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn chū 。
林轩神色凝重的一指向前点出。
The demon scorpion was shocked and terrified by these rapidly approaching silver threads. They reached its side in an instant, then something incredible happened.
huà yīn wèi luò ， nà yín sè de guāng qiú lüè yī mó hú ， xià yī kè ， jiù chū xiàn zài le nà guǐ miàn xiē shēn qián lǐ xǔ zhī chù 。
话音未落，那银色的光球略一模糊，下一刻，就出现在了那鬼面蝎身前里许之处。
The leading threads flashed and transformed back into sword lights. The demon scorpion couldn’t dodge them as the ghostly face showed a fierce expression. Its six tails moved frantically, fighting off the incoming sword lights.
shùn yí ？
瞬移？
But this delay allowed more sword threads to surround it from behind, forming a web-like structure that left no escape. Desperate, the demon scorpion had to use another secret technique.
bù 。 yào gāo jí dé duō 。
不。要高级得多。
This creature was formidable, but its opponent wasn’t just Lin Xuan.
lǐ miàn sì hū yùn hán yǒu yì diǎn kōng jiān fǎ zé ！
里面似乎蕴含有一点空间法则！
With their attention fully occupied, an opening appeared.
lín xuān rú jīn de shí lì què rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， tóng yī zhāo xià jū rán hán yǒu liǎng zhǒng bù tóng de tiān dì fǎ zé ， wēi lì yào yuǎn bǐ jiǎn dān de dié jiā dà shàng xǔ duō 。
林轩如今的实力确然非同小可，同一招下居然含有两种不同的天地法则，威力要远比简单的叠加大上许多。
"Flawed!"
dāng rán ， shī zhǎn de nán dù yì fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
当然，施展的难度亦非同小可。
Moon's sharp cry echoed as her brilliant sword light struck the demon scorpion’s head. The force of this attack was immense; it enveloped the entire creature. Simultaneously, the Spirit Race High Priestess’s attacks came too.
dāng chū miàn duì líng zú lǎo zǔ de shí hòu lín xuān yě bù céng shǐ chū 。 suàn shì tā yā xiāng dǐ de mì shù ， bù guò zhè yī cì ， yīn wèi fēn háo tuō yán bù dé 。 gù ér yě jiù bù gǎn cáng zhuō ， yī chū shǒu ， jiù shì zhēn cáng yǐ jiǔ de jué jì le 。
当初面对灵族老祖的时候林轩也不曾使出。算是他压箱底的秘术，不过这一次，因为分毫拖延不得。故而也就不敢藏拙，一出手，就是珍藏已久的绝技了。
The demon scorpion had nowhere to hide, and such a good opportunity wasn’t one Lin Xuan would miss. Sword threads fell like rain, slicing through its defenses as well.
huì yǒu zěn yàng de xiào guǒ ？
会有怎样的效果？
(To be continued)
The sky suddenly darkened, and Lin Xuan and the two women instinctively raised their heads. The horizon was already shrouded in thick clouds.
Their vision began to blur as a faint, ominous mist spread over several miles around them. Lin Xuan frowned and released his divine sense, but found it useless against the mist.
