qí zhōng shèn zhì bāo kuò wàn jiāo wáng de ài nǚ yǔ léi yún lǎo zǔ zhè wèi dù jié hòu qī de lǎo guài wù ， cóng ér zài zhěng gè xiū xiān jiè dōu yǐn qǐ le xuān rán dà bō 。『』
其中甚至包括万蛟王的爱女与雷云老祖这位渡劫后期的老怪物，从而在整个修仙界都引起了轩然大波。『』
Among the participants were even Wan Jiao Wang's beloved daughter and the venerable Rain桐 Immortal, causing a great commotion throughout the cultivation world.
wàn jiāo wáng gèng shì bó rán dà nù 。
万蛟王更是勃然大怒。
Wan Jiao Wang was furious. Even Rain桐 Immortal, one of the most mysterious and powerful spirit beasts in the scattered immortals, couldn't help but intervene.
shèn zhì lián sàn xiān yāo wáng zhōng zuì wèi shén mì de yǔ tóng xiān zi yě rěn bú zhù chū shǒu le 。
甚至连散仙妖王中最为神秘的雨桐仙子也忍不住出手了。
However, Qin Yan did not perish; she simply vanished without a trace, as if she had disappeared from thin air into the Spirit Realm.
rán ér qín yán yī jiù méi yǒu yǔn luò ， zhǐ shì zōng jì quán wú 。
然而秦妍依旧没有陨落，只是踪迹全无。
Unable to seek revenge against someone who was nowhere to be found, Wan Jiao Wang could only sigh and do nothing despite his immense strength.
fǎng fú píng kōng yóu líng jiè zhī zhōng xiāo shī diào le 。
仿佛凭空由灵界之中消失掉了。
As time passed, this incident eventually faded away. However, now that the spirit beasts were inexplicably becoming much stronger, their bodies contained a trace of demonic energy, coinciding with Qin Yan's appearance. It seemed logical that these two events were related.
xiǎng bào chóu què zhǎo bú dào zhèng zhǔ ér ， wàn jiāo wáng shí lì zài qiáng yě zhǐ yǒu tú huàn nài hé 。
想报仇却找不到正主儿，万蛟王实力再强也只有徒唤奈何。
Unfortunately, Lin Xuan had no more evidence at his disposal. The couple in front of him were only minor condensation core cultivators and could not keep many secrets.
suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， cǐ shì yě zhǐ yǒu bù liǎo liǎo zhī 。
随着时间的推移，此事也只有不了了之。
With a sigh, Lin Xuan pondered the matter. Deciphering it would take time; he couldn't accomplish it overnight.
rán ér rú jīn ， yāo qín mò míng qí miào de biàn dé lì hài yǐ jí ， shēn tǐ zhī zhōng ， què yùn hán yǒu wēi bù kě chá de mó qì ， shí jiān yě shì cóng qín yán xiàn shēn kāi shǐ 。
然而如今，妖禽莫名其妙的变得厉害以极，身体之中，却蕴含有微不可查的魔气，时间也是从秦妍现身开始。
Lin Xuan frowned as he thought, while the couple remained silent, their breaths barely audible.
zěn me xiǎng dōu jué de liǎng zhě yīng gāi dà yǒu guān xì 。
怎么想都觉得两者应该大有关系。
While they owed him their lives, many high-ranking cultivators were unpredictable and could easily be angered by a single misstep.
kě xī lín xuān de shǒu lǐ ， què méi yǒu gèng duō de zhèng jù ， yǎn qián zhè duì fū qī ， yě zhǐ shì xiǎo xiǎo de níng dān qī xiū xiān zhě ér yǐ ， gèng bù kě néng zhǎng wò tài duō de yǐn mì 。
可惜林轩的手里，却没有更多的证据，眼前这对夫妻，也只是小小的凝丹期修仙者而已，更不可能掌握太多的隐秘。
They wouldn’t make such a foolish mistake.
niàn jí zhì cǐ ， lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì 。
念及至此，林轩叹了口气。
"By the way, do you two have any maps of this area?" Lin Xuan asked after some thought, still without any leads.
xiǎng yào jiě mì ， xiǎn rán bú shì yī shí piàn kè néng gòu bàn dé dào de 。
想要解密，显然不是一时片刻能够办得到的。
"Of course, we have a map," the large man quickly bowed and said, then reached into his waistband to pull out an jade cylinder.
lín xuān zhòu méi sī suǒ ， ér nà duì fū qī ， zé lián dà qì dōu bù gǎn chū 。
林轩皱眉思索，而那对夫妻，则连大气都不敢出。
Lin Xuan took it and released his divine sense. His face showed great satisfaction; the map was far more complete than he had imagined.
duì fāng yú zì jǐ yǒu jiù mìng zhī ēn méi cuò ， dàn hěn duō gāo jiē xiū xiān zhě ， pí qì yě dōu gǔ guài yǐ jí ， shāo bù liú shén ， jiù yǒu kě néng jiāng duì fāng chù nù 。
对方于自己有救命之恩没错，但很多高阶修仙者，脾气也都古怪以极，稍不留神，就有可能将对方触怒。
With this item, he now knew where to go next.
tā men zì rán bú huì fàn rú cǐ yú chǔn de cuò wù 。
他们自然不会犯如此愚蠢的错误。
Lin Xuan accepted the map. For a condensation core cultivator, it wasn't a valuable thing. He saved their lives and took away such a map—emotionally and logically, they shouldn’t have any complaints.
“ duì le ， nǐ men liǎng rén shǒu zhōng ， kě yǒu zhè fù jìn de dì tú ？”
“对了，你们两人手中，可有这附近的地图？”
However, as Lin Xuan thought thus, the middle-aged man looked hesitant.
lín xuān sī suǒ piàn kè ， yī jiù fēn háo tóu xù yě wú ， wú nài zhī xià ， wéi yǒu jiāng cǐ shì xiān fàng dào yī biān le 。
林轩思索片刻，依旧分毫头绪也无，无奈之下，唯有将此事先放到一边了。
"Why do you think there's something wrong with me taking this map?" Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
“ dì tú ， ó ， dāng rán yǒu de 。”
“地图，哦，当然有的。”
"Senior, it’s just a joke. You saved us from death, how could I harbor such disrespectful thoughts? But..." The large man changed his expression and quickly explained.
nà dà hàn máng diǎn tóu hā yāo kāi kǒu le ， suí hòu shēn shǒu zài yāo jiān yī pāi ， jiù cóng huái zhōng qǔ chū le yí gè yù tóng jiǎn 。
那大汉忙点头哈腰开口了，随后伸手在腰间一拍，就从怀中取出了一个玉瞳简。
"Only that the beasts in the area around Giant Tree City have become more ferocious, but the conditions of other cities on this map are similar to ours. Senior, although you possess formidable abilities, there are a few spirit beasts nearby whose strength is no trivial matter; they've reached the realm of spirit projection. Therefore, even for senior, please be cautious."
lín xuān shēn shǒu jiē guò ， wēi wēi jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， liǎn shàng jiù lù chū jí wéi mǎn yì de shén sè ， zhè dì tú yuǎn bǐ zì jǐ xiǎng xiàng de 。 yào wán zhěng xǔ duō 。
林轩伸手接过，微微将神识放出，脸上就露出极为满意的神色，这地图远比自己想象的。要完整许多。
"Ah, I see. You don't need to worry about that."
yǒu le cǐ wù ， jiē xià lái yào qù hé chù ， xīn zhōng yě jiù yǒu le yí gè pǔ ér 。
有了此物，接下来要去何处，心中也就有了一个谱儿。
Lin Xuan's expression softened. The man was indeed a kind-hearted person who knew how to repay kindness, or he wouldn’t have gone through such trouble.
lín xuān shōu xià dì tú 。
林轩收下地图。
"This medicinal pill is a reward for you."
fǎn zhèng duì yú níng dān qī xiū xiān zhě ， zhè yì suàn bù shàng zhí qián de shì wù ， zì jǐ jiù tā fū qī yī tiáo xiǎo mìng ér ， ná zǒu zhè me yī fù dì tú ， yú qíng yú lǐ ， duì fāng dōu bù yīng gāi yǒu rèn hé yuàn yán de 。
反正对于凝丹期修仙者，这亦算不上值钱的事物，自己救他夫妻一条小命儿，拿走这么一副地图，于情于理，对方都不应该有任何怨言的。
Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve and a red light shot out. His figure flashed, transforming into a sharp beam that vanished.
lín xuān xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， rán ér nà zhōng nián dà hàn jiàn le cǐ mù ， liǎn shàng què lù chū yù yán yòu zhǐ de shén sè 。
林轩心中如此想着，然而那中年大汉见了此幕，脸上却露出欲言又止的神色。
His遁术 was so swift it was almost indescribable, frightening the two condensation core cultivators to speechlessness. Fortunately, the large man reacted quickly and caught the red light.
“ zěn me 。 lín mǒu qǔ zǒu zhè fèn dì tú ， dào yǒu jué de yǒu hé bù tuǒ ？” lín xuān méi tóu yī tiāo de shuō 。
“怎么。林某取走这份地图，道友觉得有何不妥？”林轩眉头一挑的说。
It was an immortal pill, though only as small as a bean. It emitted a faint glow and had a strange fragrance emanating from its surface.
“ qián bèi shuō xiào le ， nín yú wǎn bèi fū qī ， yǒu zài shēng zhī dé ， xiǎo rén zěn me gǎn xīn cún zhè yàng bù jìng de xiǎng fǎ ne ， zhǐ shì ……” dà hàn liǎn sè yī biàn ， máng shuāng shǒu lián bǎi de jiě shì qǐ lái le 。
“前辈说笑了，您于晚辈夫妻，有再生之德，小人怎么敢心存这样不敬的想法呢，只是……”大汉脸色一变，忙双手连摆的解释起来了。
"Phantom Heart Pill!"
“ zhǐ shì rú hé ？” lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī bù nài fán de shén sè ， tā kě bù xǐ huān duì fāng shuō huà tūn tūn tǔ tǔ 。
“只是如何？”林轩脸上露出一丝不耐烦的神色，他可不喜欢对方说话吞吞吐吐。
The large man's eyes narrowed with excitement.
“ qián bèi xī nù ， wǎn bèi shì shuō 。 chú le jù mù chéng fù jìn de yāo shòu biàn dé kuáng bào yǐ wài ， dì tú shàng qí tā chéng chí de qíng xíng ， yì yǔ wǒ men zhè ér xiāng chà fǎng fú ， qián bèi gù rán shén tōng gài shì 。 dàn zhè fù jìn yǒu jǐ tóu yāo shòu de shí lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yǐ dào fēn shén qī le ， suǒ yǐ jí biàn shì qián bèi ， yě qǐng jǐn liàng xiǎo xīn yī èr de 。”
“前辈息怒，晚辈是说。除了巨木城附近的妖兽变得狂暴以外，地图上其他城池的情形，亦与我们这儿相差仿佛，前辈固然神通盖世。但这附近有几头妖兽的实力非同小可，已到分神期了，所以即便是前辈，也请尽量小心一二的。”
"What? Husband, you say Senior gave you that legendary treasure?"
“ ń 。 yuán lái rú cǐ ， zhè nǐ jiù bù yòng dān xīn le 。”
“嗯。原来如此，这你就不用担心了。”
The woman beside him rushed over, her face showing both surprise and joy.
lín xuān biǎo qíng yī huǎn ， duì fāng yě suàn zhái xīn rén hòu de rén wù 。 dǒng de zhī ēn tú bào ， fǒu zé jué bú huì duō cǐ yī jǔ 。
林轩表情一缓，对方也算宅心仁厚的人物。懂得知恩图报，否则绝不会多此一举。
"Yes, I've seen this Phantom Heart Pill in ancient texts. It can't be mistaken. Although it has no use for high-ranking cultivators, it's a holy object for us condensation core cultivators to form an essence core. With its help, my chances of advancing to the essence core stage are at least fifty percent," the large man said with trembling excitement.
“ zhè lì dān yào jiù shǎng cì gěi nǐ 。”
“这粒丹药就赏赐给你。”
"This is great! No wonder ancient people say that those who survive great calamities will have good fortune in the future; this saying is indeed true. However, there are many mutated spirit beasts here, so we should leave as soon as possible."
lín xuān xiù páo yī fú ， yī lǚ hóng máng fēi shè ér chū ， suí hòu shēn xíng yī shǎn ， huà wèi yī dào jīng máng xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
林轩袖袍一拂，一缕红芒飞射而出，随后身形一闪，化为一道精芒消失不见。
"Spouse, you're right. We'll leave immediately," the large man said and quickly put away the pill, looking around cautiously before the two of them transformed into a streak of light and flew towards Giant Tree City.
qí dùn shù zhī xùn jí ， jiǎn zhí nán yǐ yán yù 。
其遁术之迅疾，简直难以言喻。
...
jiāng liǎng míng níng dān qī xiū xiān zhě ， xià dé shì chēng mù jié shé ， hǎo zài nà dà hàn fǎn yìng hái suàn xùn sù ， shēn shǒu jiāng hóng máng jiē zhù 。
将两名凝丹期修仙者，吓得是瞠目结舌，好在那大汉反应还算迅速，伸手将红芒接住。
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan was already tens of thousands of miles away, playing with an jade cylinder in his hand, his face showing deep contemplation.
shì yī lì xiān dān 。
是一粒仙丹。
It was indeed a stroke of luck. Lin Xuan hadn't expected to encounter such events just after arriving in the Rain桐 Realm.
suī rán zhǐ yǒu dòu lì dà xiǎo de yì diǎn ， què sàn fà zhe yíng yíng de guāng zé ， biǎo miàn gèng yǒu zhèn zhèn yì xiāng piāo sàn ér chū 。
虽然只有豆粒大小的一点，却散发着莹莹的光泽，表面更有阵阵异香飘散而出。
Although these mutated spirit beasts were more troublesome, they posed no threat to him now. However, considering their connection to Qin Yan, Lin Xuan couldn’t ignore it.
“ huàn xīn dān ！”
“幻心丹！”
What sinister plot did these域外demons have?
dà hàn yǎn jīng wēi mī ， suí hòu jiù lù chū le kuáng xǐ 。
大汉眼睛微眯，随后就露出了狂喜。
During ancient times, when the Three Realms War began, could this also be a result of their efforts?
“ shén me ， fū jūn ， nǐ shuō qián bèi shǎng cì yǔ nǐ de ， nǎi shì chuán shuō zhōng de shén wù ？”
“什么，夫君，你说前辈赏赐与你的，乃是传说中的神物？”
Lin Xuan didn't know, but he had some vague guesses.
yī páng de nǚ zǐ yě máng kào guò lái le ， liǎn shàng lù chū yòu jīng yòu xǐ de shén sè 。
一旁的女子也忙靠过来了，脸上露出又惊又喜的神色。
Of course, finding out the truth wouldn't be easy. The immediate priority was to return to the Baxuan Pavilion.
“ bù cuò ， zhè huàn xīn dān wèi fū céng zài diǎn jí shàng kàn guò ， jué bú huì nòng cuò ， cǐ dān duì gāo jiē xiū xiān zhě suī méi yǒu shén me yòng tú ， dàn què shì wǒ děng níng dān qī xiū shì níng jié yuán yīng de shèng wù ， yǒu le tā de bāng zhù ， wèi fū jìn jiē yuán yīng qī zhì shǎo yǒu yí bàn de bǎ wò 。” dà hàn jī dòng dé hún shēn fā dǒu ， xǐ bù zì jīn de shuō 。
“不错，这幻心丹为夫曾在典籍上看过，绝不会弄错，此丹对高阶修仙者虽没有什么用途，但却是我等凝丹期修士凝结元婴的圣物，有了它的帮助，为夫进阶元婴期至少有一半的把握。”大汉激动得浑身发抖，喜不自禁的说。
Yes, back to the Baxuan Pavilion.
“ zhè tài hǎo le ， guài bù dé gǔ rén shuō dà nàn bù sǐ bì yǒu hòu fú ， cǐ yán guǒ rán méi cuò ， bù guò cǐ dì biàn yì yāo shòu shèn duō ， wǒ men hái shì kuài diǎn lí kāi cǐ chù 。”
“这太好了，怪不得古人说大难不死必有后福，此言果然没错，不过此地变异妖兽甚多，我们还是快点离开此处。”
Originally, Lin Xuan planned to travel around after returning to the Rain桐 Realm. First, the Seven Treasures of Mephisto were still incomplete; he needed to investigate other treasures' whereabouts.
“ niáng zǐ yán zhī yǒu lǐ ， wǒ men zhè jiù lí qù 。”
“娘子言之有理，我们这就离去。”
Secondly, although he had transcended the constraints of lifespan, his two essence cores hadn't advanced beyond the realm of spirit projection.
dà hàn tīng le ， máng jiāng dān yào shōu hǎo ， jǐng tì de wàng le wàng sì zhōu ， suí hòu èr rén lián mèi huà zuò yī dào jīng hóng ， xiàng yuǎn chù de jù mù chéng fēi qù le 。
大汉听了，忙将丹药收好，警惕的望了望四周，随后二人联袂化作一道惊虹，像远处的巨木城飞去了。
Even if it took tens of thousands of years for him to advance gradually, it would be too time-consuming. Therefore, Lin Xuan wanted to travel around and see if he could find anything that might speed up their cultivation.
……
……
The idea was good, but now he had to change his plans due to the mutated spirit beasts he just encountered.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， lín xuān zǎo zài shù shí wàn lǐ zhī wài ， tā de shǒu zhōng bǎ wán zhe yī méi yù tóng ， liǎn shàng zé lù chū yī fù chén yín zhī sè 。
与此同时，林轩早在数十万里之外，他的手中把玩着一枚玉瞳，脸上则露出一副沉吟之色。
These demon-possessed creatures hadn't caused a commotion in the Spirit Realm yet, and few high-ranking cultivators paid attention. However, Lin Xuan sensed a sinister plot from them.
shuō qǐ lái hái zhēn shì jī yuán qiǎo hé ， lín xuān yě méi xiǎng dào gāng dào yǔ tóng jiè ， jiù huì yù jiàn zhè yàng de biàn gù 。
说起来还真是机缘巧合，林轩也没想到刚到雨桐界，就会遇见这样的变故。
For higher-ranking cultivators, it might be harmless, but for weaker cultivators, it could be a disaster.
nà xiē biàn yì yāo shòu jiù suàn nán chán yī xiē ， dàn duì yú rú jīn de zì jǐ ， zì rán fēn háo wēi xié yě wú ， kě xiǎng xiǎng tā men shēn shàng yǔ qín yán tóng yuán de qì xī ， lín xuān yě jiù bù néng shì ruò wú wù 。
那些变异妖兽就算难缠一些，但对于如今的自己，自然分毫威胁也无，可想想它们身上与秦妍同源的气息，林轩也就不能视若无物。
Lin Xuan wanted to ensure that Baxuan Pavilion was safe at this moment.
zhè xiē yù wài tiān mó ， jiū jìng yǒu shén me yīn móu ？
这些域外天魔，究竟有什么阴谋？
After all, many people he cared about were inside—whether they were the Shangguan sisters or Liu Xin and Wu Yun'er. Lin Xuan didn't want any of them to meet with misfortune.
shàng gǔ zhī shí ， sān jiè dà zhàn kāi qǐ ， zhè bèi hòu ， shì fǒu yě yǒu tā men tuī bō zhù lán de jié guǒ ？
上古之时，三界大战开启，这背后，是否也有他们推波助澜的结果？
He was a cultivator who valued old bonds.
lín xuān bù xiǎo de ， dàn xīn zhōng què yǐn yǐn yǒu le yī xiē cāi cè 。
林轩不晓得，但心中却隐隐有了一些猜测。
If nothing happened in Baxuan Pavilion, that would be best. Even if he encountered danger, his strength could easily handle it once he arrived there.
Among the participants were even Wan Jiao Wang's beloved daughter and the venerable Rain桐 Immortal, causing a great commotion throughout the cultivation world.
Wan Jiao Wang was furious. Even Rain桐 Immortal, one of the most mysterious and powerful spirit beasts in the scattered immortals, couldn't help but intervene.
However, Qin Yan did not perish; she simply vanished without a trace, as if she had disappeared from thin air into the Spirit Realm.
Unable to seek revenge against someone who was nowhere to be found, Wan Jiao Wang could only sigh and do nothing despite his immense strength.

"By the way, do you two have any maps of this area?" Lin Xuan asked after some thought, still without any leads.
"Of course, we have a map," the large man quickly bowed and said, then reached into his waistband to pull out an jade cylinder.
Lin Xuan took it and released his divine sense. His face showed great satisfaction; the map was far more complete than he had imagined.
With this item, he now knew where to go next.
