nà shì yī róng mào jùn xiù de shào nǚ ， méi mù rú huà ， rán ér shēn gāo jǐn yǒu yī chǐ 。
那是一容貌俊秀的少女，眉目如画，然而身高仅有一尺。
That was a young maiden with an exquisite appearance, her features like paintings. However, she was only one foot tall.
qiǎo xiào qiàn xī ， méi shāo yǎn jiǎo què dài zhe jǐ fēn jī cháo de xiào yì 。
巧笑倩兮，眉梢眼角却带着几分讥嘲的笑意。
She smiled prettily, but there was a hint of mockery in the corners of her eyes.
“ xiǎo táo ， nǐ zěn me zài zhè lǐ ？”
“小桃，你怎么在这里？”
"Little Peach, why are you here?"
yuè ér de biǎo qíng mǎn shì jīng qí ， cǐ shí tā zhèng páng huáng wú jì ， xiǎo táo de xiàn shēn wú yí shì yì wài zhī xǐ 。
月儿的表情满是惊奇，此时她正彷徨无计，小桃的现身无疑是意外之喜。
Moon's expression was filled with surprise. At this moment, she was at a loss, and Little Peach's appearance was an unexpected joy.
“ xiǎo jiě ， bié zháo jí ， nǐ xiàn zài ， bù guò shì luò rù le duì fāng de huàn shù lǐ 。”
“小姐，别着急，你现在，不过是落入了对方的幻术里。”
"Miss, don't worry. You're just caught in the opponent's illusion."
xiǎo táo tàn le kǒu qì ， duì zhe yuè ér de shí hòu tā kě shì wēn róu wú bǐ 。
小桃叹了口气，对着月儿的时候她可是温柔无比。
Little Peach sighed. When addressing Moon, her tone was incredibly gentle.
“ shén me huàn shù ， wǒ bú shì fēi shēng líng jiè de shí hòu yǔ shào yé shī sàn le me ？”
“什么幻术，我不是飞升灵界的时候与少爷失散了么？”
"What kind of illusion? Didn’t I lose contact with Young Master when ascending to the Spirit Realm?"
yuè ér tīng dé shì yún lǐ wù lǐ ， wán quán bù míng bái xiǎo táo shuō de shì shén me dōng xī ， zhè jiù shì huàn yuè é shén tōng de kě pà zhī chù ， gòu jiàn de huàn shù kōng jiān yǐ dào le yǐ jiǎ luàn zhēn de dì bù 。
月儿听得是云里雾里，完全不明白小桃说的是什么东西，这就是幻月蛾神通的可怕之处，构建的幻术空间已到了以假乱真的地步。
Moon was lost in a fog and didn't understand what Little Peach was talking about. This was the terrifying aspect of the Illusory Moon Moth's power; its constructed illusory space had reached such a level of realism that once one fell into it, they were at the mercy of the illusionist.
yí dàn luò rù qí zhōng ， jiù zhǐ yǒu rèn qí bǎi bù ， xià chǎng yǔ diào rù zhī zhū wǎng de kūn chóng xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
一旦落入其中，就只有任其摆布，下场与掉入蜘蛛网的昆虫相差仿佛。
In this case, with the weak overcoming the strong, for the Illusory Moon Moth, it was nothing. Her realm was already superior to Moon’s, and she held the advantage in timing and location. With a sudden ambush, even though Moon was reborn as the Arhat King, her fate was sealed.
yǐ ruò shèng qiáng ， duì yú huàn yuè é lái shuō ， gēn běn jiù suàn bù liǎo shén me ， gèng bú yào shuō tā de jìng jiè ， yuán běn jiù bǐ yuè ér shèng shàng yī chóu ， zhàn jù tiān shí dì lì ， yòu shì cù bù jí fáng de qíng kuàng xià shī zhǎn tōu xí ， yuè ér suī shì ā xiū luó wáng zhuǎn shì ， yì zhǐ yǒu tú huàn nài hé ， yuán běn zhù dìng ， hěn nán yǒu fān pán jī huì de 。
以弱胜强，对于幻月蛾来说，根本就算不了什么，更不要说她的境界，原本就比月儿胜上一筹，占据天时地利，又是猝不及防的情况下施展偷袭，月儿虽是阿修罗王转世，亦只有徒唤奈何，原本注定，很难有翻盘机会的。
This battle had no suspense at all. The Illusory Moon Moth didn’t intend to kill Moon here; it just wanted to trap her.
zhè chǎng dòu fǎ ， kě yǐ shuō fēn háo xuán niàn yě wú ， huàn yuè é dào méi yǒu xiǎng guò yào jiāng yuè ér miè shā yú cǐ chù ， bù guò kùn zhù cǐ nǚ ， duì tā lái shuō ， què shì dà yǒu hǎo chù 。
这场斗法，可以说分毫悬念也无，幻月蛾倒没有想过要将月儿灭杀于此处，不过困住此女，对它来说，却是大有好处。
Though it hadn't found the Magic Fruit, the appearance of the Jade Silk Bee was an unexpected delight. It had already consumed one, and if it could obtain more such spirit insects, not only would it be able to advance beyond the late-stage Tribulation Transcender, but it might even comprehend temporal power.
méi yǒu zhǎo dào mó huàn guǒ ， dàn yù luó fēng de chū xiàn ， què shì yì wài zhī xǐ ， tā yǐ jīng tūn shí le yī zhī ， ruò shì kě yǐ dé dào gèng duō zhè zhǒng líng chóng ， bié shuō jìn jí dù jié hòu qī ， zì jǐ shèn zhì yǒu kě néng lǐng wù shí kōng zhī lì 。
没有找到魔幻果，但玉罗蜂的出现，却是意外之喜，它已经吞食了一只，若是可以得到更多这种灵虫，别说晋级渡劫后期，自己甚至有可能领悟时空之力。
The Law of Time!
shí jiān fǎ zé ！
时间法则！
Even for True Immortals, this held infinite appeal.
biàn shì duì zhēn xiān lái shuō ， yě yǒu zhe wú qióng de xī yǐn lì 。
便是对真仙来说，也有着无穷的吸引力。
If she could master it, she could travel anywhere in the Three Realms and wouldn’t be confined to this tiny place where her spirit was buried.
zì jǐ ruò néng zhǎng wò ， cóng cǐ yǐ hòu sān jiè jǐn kě qù dé ， yě bú huì bèi kùn yú zhè xiǎo xiǎo de zhēn líng mái gǔ zhī suǒ 。
自己若能掌握，从此以后三界尽可去得，也不会被困于这小小的真灵埋骨之所。
The Illusory Moon Moth’s plan had been good at first.鹬蚌相争，渔翁得利。
huàn yuè é de dǎ suàn ， yuán běn shì hǎo de 。
幻月蛾的打算，原本是好的。
By trapping Moon here, waiting for Lin Xuan to exhaust himself, everything would fall into its hands. Then, they would be like fish on a chopping board and would have no choice but to offer the Jade Silk Bee.
hé bàng xiāng zhēng ， yú wēng dé lì 。
河蚌相争，渔翁得利。
The plan seemed sound, but matters in the cultivation world were never so easily calculated.
jiāng yuè ér kùn yú zhè lǐ ， zài děng nà lín xiǎo zi yóu jǐn dēng kū zhī shí ， yī qiè dōu jiāng luò rù zì jǐ de zhǎng wò lǐ 。 dào shí hòu ， tā men jiù shì zhēn bǎn shàng de yú ， hái bù guāi guāi de jiāng yù luó fēng fèng xiàn gěi zì jǐ 。
将月儿困于这里，再等那林小子油尽灯枯之时，一切都将落入自己的掌握里。到时候，他们就是砧板上的鱼，还不乖乖的将玉罗蜂奉献给自己。
Moon was ensnared by its trap, but this wondrous illusion had no effect on Little Peach.
dǎ suàn yuán běn bù cuò ， rán ér xiū xiān jiè de shì qíng ， yòu qǐ shì nà me hǎo suàn jì de 。
打算原本不错，然而修仙界的事情，又岂是那么好算计的。
At first glance, it seemed unbelievable. But remember, Little Peach wasn’t a cultivator; her true form was the Profound Yin Treasure Box. How could one use common sense to understand such things?
yuè ér shì luò rù le tā de xiàn jǐng lǐ ， kě zhè shén miào huàn shù ， duì xiǎo táo què méi yǒu sī háo xiào guǒ 。
月儿是落入了它的陷阱里，可这神妙幻术，对小桃却没有丝毫效果。
This illusion had no effect on her at all.
zhà yī tīng ， yǒu xiē bù kě sī yì 。
乍一听，有些不可思议。
The Illusory Moon Moth didn't know the cause and effect of this sudden change, and its face showed confusion. For a moment, it almost thought its eyes were playing tricks on it.
dàn bié wàng le ， xiǎo táo yuán běn jiù bú shì xiū xiān zhě 。
但别忘了，小桃原本就不是修仙者。
But an ominous feeling arose in its heart.
tā de běn tǐ ， nǎi shì xuán yīn bǎo hé 。
她的本体，乃是玄阴宝盒。
No, this unexpected situation must be eliminated.
xiān fǔ qí zhēn 。 qǐ néng yòng cháng lǐ chuǎi duó ？
仙府奇珍。岂能用常理揣度？
With that thought, the Illusory Moon Moth acted.
zhè huàn shù duì tā ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu rèn hé de xiào guǒ 。
这幻术对她，根本就没有任何的效果。
However, Little Peach’s reaction was even quicker.
qián yīn hòu guǒ ， huàn yuè é bìng bù qīng chǔ ， zhè tū rán de biàn gù ， ràng tā liǎn shàng mǎn shì chà yì zhī sè ， yī shí jiān ， jī hū yǐ wéi zì jǐ yǎn jīng chū wèn tí le 。
前因后果，幻月蛾并不清楚，这突然的变故，让它脸上满是诧异之色，一时间，几乎以为自己眼睛出问题了。
She opened her mouth and emitted a golden light. It transformed into golden sword energy, slicing at the evil ghost ahead.
dàn xīn zhōng ， què yǒu bù hǎo de yù gǎn fú xiàn ér chū 。
但心中，却有不好的预感浮现而出。
The opponent naturally wouldn’t surrender. But there was no use in dodging or blocking; with a flash of gold, the sword energy circled around its head and took off the evil ghost’s head.
bù xíng ， bì xū jiāng zhè yì wài miè chú 。
不行，必须将这意外灭除。
Then it vanished like a bubble.
xīn zhōng zhè me xiǎng zhe 。 huàn yuè é dòng shǒu le 。
心中这么想着。幻月蛾动手了。
"What..."
rán ér xiǎo táo de fǎn yìng gèng jiā xùn sù 。
然而小桃的反应更加迅速。
Moon's face showed contemplation. If a true evil ghost had been eliminated, it wouldn't be this way.
zhǐ jiàn tā yī zhāng kǒu ， yī dào jīn máng pēn tǔ ér chū ， huàn huà chéng jīn sè de jiàn qì ， xiàng qián miàn de è guǐ zhǎn le guò qù 。
只见她一张口，一道金芒喷吐而出，幻化成金色的剑气，像前面的恶鬼斩了过去。
Could all these scenes before her eyes truly be mirages?
duì fāng zì rán bú huì shù shǒu jiù fù 。 kě duǒ bì zǔ dǎng dōu méi yǒu yòng tú ， dàn jiàn jīn máng yī shǎn ， nà jiàn qì wéi zhe tā de tóu lú yī rào ， jiù qǔ xià le nà è guǐ de tóu lú 。
对方自然不会束手就缚。可躲避阻挡都没有用途，但见金芒一闪，那剑气围着他的头颅一绕，就取下了那恶鬼的头颅。
"Miss, let's work together to break this illusion."
suí hòu duì fāng rú qì pào yì bān de pò miè diào le 。
随后对方如气泡一般的破灭掉了。
"Agreed."
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
Though Moon was still trapped, she knew that Little Peach wouldn’t harm her no matter what.
yuè ér liǎn shàng lù chū ruò yǒu suǒ sī zhī sè 。 ruò shì zhēn zhèng de è guǐ bèi miè chú ， jué bú huì shì zhè bān jìng kuàng de 。
月儿脸上露出若有所思之色。若是真正的恶鬼被灭除，绝不会是这般境况的。
Why not give it a try?
nán dào yǎn qián suǒ yǒu de jǐng wù ， zhēn shì jìng huā shuǐ yuè me ？
难道眼前所有的景物，真是镜花水月么？
...
“ xiǎo jiě 。 nǐ yǔ wǒ yì qǐ dòng shǒu ， jiāng zhè huàn shù pò chú 。”
“小姐。你与我一起动手，将这幻术破除。”
On the other side, Lin Xuan’s situation grew more perilous.
“ hǎo 。”
“好。”
His strength far surpassed those of his peers, and he had a wide array of techniques at his disposal.
yuè ér suī rán yī jiù bèi kùn zhù ， dàn yě zhī dào ， wú lùn rú hé ， xiǎo táo bú huì hài zì jǐ de 。
月儿虽然依旧被困住，但也知道，无论如何，小桃不会害自己的。
But so what?
jì rú cǐ ， shì shì yòu yǒu hé fáng ne ？
既如此，试试又有何妨呢？
As the saying goes, a hero can't defeat many enemies. Each fallen spirit wasn’t weak; when they awakened from their slumber, they became formidable monsters. Lin Xuan was exhausted just trying to fend them off.
……
……
At this moment, more than ten spirits surrounded him.
zài shuō lìng yī biān ， lín xuān de chǔ jìng ， què yuè fā wēi xiǎn 。
再说另一边，林轩的处境，却越发危险。
Various techniques pierced through the air.
tā de shí lì shì yuǎn shèng tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě ， suǒ huì de shén tōng ， gèng tán dé shàng shè liè guǎng bó 。
他的实力是远胜同阶修仙者，所会的神通，更谈得上涉猎广博。
Such attacks could easily kill ordinary late-stage Tribulation Transcenders.
dàn nà yòu zěn me yàng ne ？
但那又怎么样呢？
But now, Lin Xuan had no room for evasion.
sú huà shuō ， hǎo hàn dí bù guò rén duō ， měi yī tóu yǔn luò de zhēn líng ， dōu bú huì shì ruò zhě 。
俗话说，好汉敌不过人多，每一头陨落的真灵，都不会是弱者。
What should he do?
dāng tā men cóng cháng mián zhōng sū xǐng ， jiù biàn chéng le jí shǒu de guài wù ， lín xuān shǐ jǐn hún shēn xiè shù ， yě bù guò shì pí yú yìng fù 。
当它们从长眠中苏醒，就变成了棘手的怪物，林轩使尽浑身解数，也不过是疲于应付。
Lin Xuan sighed and, with no other choice, raised his right hand and struck at his waist pouch.
cǐ shí ， tā jiù bèi shí yú tóu zhēn líng tuán tuán bāo guǒ 。
此时，他就被十余头真灵团团包裹。
As he moved, black light flashed, and a shield the size of a palm flew out from the pouch.
gè zhǒng gè yàng de shén tōng chuān kōng ér guò 。
各种各样的神通穿空而过。
It was a shield!
zhè yàng de gōng jī ， zú yǐ miǎo shā pǔ tōng de dù jié qī xiū xiān zhě 。
这样的攻击，足以秒杀普通的渡劫期修仙者。
But its shape was peculiar. It resembled a turtle’s back shell but shimmered like dragon scales.
ér zhè shí hòu ， lín xuān gēn běn méi yǒu duǒ shǎn de jiǎo dù 。
而这时候，林轩根本没有躲闪的角度。
The surface was covered with runes, exuding an ancient and desolate aura as if recounting an old legend.
gāi zěn me bàn ne ？
该怎么办呢？
玄龟龙甲盾！
lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， bù dé yǐ ， zhǐ néng yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， cháo yāo jiān de chǔ wù dài pāi le xià qù 。
林轩叹了口气，不得已，只能右手抬起，朝腰间的储物袋拍了下去。
Lin Xuan's strongest defensive treasure.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， hēi máng yī shǎn ， yī bā zhǎng dà xiǎo de shì wù ， zì chǔ wù dài zhōng fēi lüè chū lái 。
随着他的动作，黑芒一闪，一巴掌大小的事物，自储物袋中飞掠出来。
"Primordial Treasure!"
shì yí miàn dùn pái ！
是一面盾牌！
From afar, the Spirit Clan Saint couldn't help but gasp. This was her second Primordial Treasure that Lin Xuan had taken out.
rán ér xíng zhuàng què yì cháng qí tè 。
然而形状却异常奇特。
While a group of immortal swords was understandable, this was a defensive Primordial Treasure.
yǒu xiē xiàng xuán guī de bèi ké ， què shǎn shuò zhe lóng lín yì bān de guāng zé 。
有些像玄龟的背壳，却闪烁着龙鳞一般的光泽。
It was well known that defensive ancient treasures were rarer than offensive ones, and their scarcity reflected in their rarity.
biǎo miàn gèng shì fú wén biàn bù ， tòu chū lái de qì xī huāng liáng gǔ piáo ， fǎng fú zài shù shuō zhe yí gè gǔ lǎo de chuán shuō 。
表面更是符文遍布，透出来的气息荒凉古朴，仿佛在述说着一个古老的传说。
This Primordial Treasure was the same way; defensive Primordial Spirit Treasures almost only existed in legends. During the Ancient War, they rarely appeared. What kind of merit did this young man have to possess one?
xuán guī lóng jiǎ dùn ！
玄龟龙甲盾！
Jealousy filled her heart.
lín xuān suǒ yōng yǒu de zuì qiáng fáng yù bǎo wù 。
林轩所拥有的最强防御宝物。
But soon, she couldn't focus on Lin Xuan anymore.
“ xiān tiān zhī bǎo ！”
“先天之宝！”
She too was under attack by several spirits, though fewer than those surrounding Lin Xuan.
yuǎn chù ， líng zú shèng nǚ rěn bú zhù yī shēng jīng hū ， zhè shì tā kàn jiàn lín xuān ná chū lái de dì èr jiàn xiān tiān zhī wù 。
远处，灵族圣女忍不住一声惊呼，这是她看见林轩拿出来的第二件先天之物。
The pressure was immense; a misstep could mean death. She had no time for Lin Xuan.
tóu yī yàng xiān jiàn tuán yě jiù bà le ， zhè yī jiàn ， kě shì fáng yù shǔ xìng de xiān tiān zhī wù 。
头一样仙剑团也就罢了，这一件，可是防御属性的先天之物。
"Bang!"
zhòng suǒ zhōu zhī ， fáng yù xìng de gǔ bǎo ， yào bǐ gōng jī lèi de gǔ bǎo gèng jiā zhēn xī ， fǎn yìng zài shù liàng shàng ， jiù shì xī shǎo wú bǐ 。
众所周知，防御性的古宝，要比攻击类的古宝更加珍稀，反应在数量上，就是稀少无比。
A muffled sound echoed as the Spirit Clan Saint paid the price of her distraction, receiving a claw strike from one of the monsters.
zhè xiān tiān zhī wù yě shì tóng yàng de dào lǐ 。
这先天之物也是同样的道理。
This creature only had a huge skeleton left; its true form was unknown, but its strength was formidable. One swipe sent the Spirit Clan Saint flying.
fáng yù shǔ xìng de xiān tiān líng bǎo ， jī hū zhǐ cún zài yú chuán shuō ， zài shàng gǔ dà zhàn de shí hòu ， jī hū yě méi yǒu zěn me xiàn shēn guò ， zhè lín xiǎo zi hé dé hé néng ， jū rán néng gòu yōng yǒu le 。
防御属性的先天灵宝，几乎只存在于传说，在上古大战的时候，几乎也没有怎么现身过，这林小子何德何能，居然能够拥有了。
As an ancient spirit race, she was incredibly powerful. Even without cultivating Body Cultivation techniques, her physical body far surpassed that of ordinary humans.
chú le xiàn mù hái shì xiàn mù 。
除了羡慕还是羡慕。
But this strike wasn’t pleasant.
dàn hěn kuài ， zhè líng zú shèng nǚ de zhù yì lì ， jiù wú fǎ zài fēn sàn le 。
但很快，这灵族圣女的注意力，就无法再分散了。
Blood spewed from her mouth.
yīn wèi tā zì jǐ cǐ kè ， tóng yàng bèi shù tóu zhēn líng wéi gōng 。
因为她自己此刻，同样被数头真灵围攻。
This wasn't the worst part.
suī rán shù liàng yǔ lín xuān xiāng bǐ ， yào shǎo shàng xǔ duō 。
虽然数量与林轩相比，要少上许多。
The other spirits surrounding her also closed in to finish her off with various attacks.
dàn yā lì ， yì shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yí bù xiǎo xīn ， jiù yǒu kě néng yǔn luò ， tā nǎ lǐ hái gù dé shàng lín xuān ne ？
但压力，亦是非同小可，一不小心，就有可能陨落，她哪里还顾得上林轩呢？
The Spirit Clan Saint's face turned deathly pale. This way, there was no suspense; she would surely die.
“ pēng ！”
“嘭！”
Must I use that move?
yī shēng mèn xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， què shì fēn shén fù chū le dài jià ， āi le qián miàn guài wù yī jì lì zhuǎ 。
一声闷响传入耳朵，却是分神付出了代价，挨了前面怪物一记利爪。
A moment of hesitation flashed across her face but was quickly replaced by determination.
zhè jiā huo zhǐ shèng xià yī fù jù dà de gǔ gé ， shēng qián shì shén me zhēn líng dōu bù qīng chǔ ， dàn shí lì zhe shí fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yī zhǎo jiù jiāng líng zú shèng nǚ pāi fēi diào le 。
这家伙只剩下一副巨大的骨骼，生前是什么真灵都不清楚，但实力着实非同小可，一爪就将灵族圣女拍飞掉了。
There was no time for further thought. When indecision leads to disaster, it might be better to take a chance.
zuò wèi shàng gǔ líng zú ， qí shí lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， jí biàn méi yǒu xiū liàn guò liàn tǐ mì shù ， dàn ròu shēn jiān rèn yě yuǎn shèng tóng jiē rén lèi cún zài de 。
做为上古灵族，其实力非同小可，即便没有修炼过炼体秘术，但肉身坚韧也远胜同阶人类存在的。
She leaped into the air and waved her hands, casting spell after spell. As she moved, an incredible scene unfolded.
dàn āi shàng zhè yī jī ， yě bù hǎo guò 。
但挨上这一击，也不好过。
PS: I planned to write more today, but I received an urgent call from my father-in-law in the morning. My wife and I went back home, and I only returned this afternoon. So, it's just one chapter today. Fellow Daoists, please forgive me. I'll try harder tomorrow. Though I'm not comfortable asking, could you please give me some推荐票?
That was a young maiden with an exquisite appearance, her features like paintings. However, she was only one foot tall.
She smiled prettily, but there was a hint of mockery in the corners of her eyes.
"Little Peach, why are you here?"
Moon's expression was filled with surprise. At this moment, she was at a loss, and Little Peach's appearance was an unexpected joy.
"Miss, don't worry. You're just caught in the opponent's illusion."
Little Peach sighed. When addressing Moon, her tone was incredibly gentle.
"What kind of illusion? Didn’t I lose contact with Young Master when ascending to the Spirit Realm?"
Moon was lost in a fog and didn't understand what Little Peach was talking about. This was the terrifying aspect of the Illusory Moon Moth's power; its constructed illusory space had reached such a level of realism that once one fell into it, they were at the mercy of the illusionist.
In this case, with the weak overcoming the strong, for the Illusory Moon Moth, it was nothing. Her realm was already superior to Moon’s, and she held the advantage in timing and location. With a sudden ambush, even though Moon was reborn as the Arhat King, her fate was sealed.
