yù tóng jiǎn zài xiū xiān jiè zài cháng jiàn bù guò ， rán ér huì bèi fēi tiān mó zhǔ zhēn ér zhòng zhī de shōu rù chǔ wù dài zhōng ， qí jià zhí kěn dìng shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
玉瞳简在修仙界再常见不过，然而会被飞天魔主珍而重之的收入储物袋中，其价值肯定是非同小可。
The Jade Pupil Scroll was a common item in the cultivation world, but it was treasured so much by Heavenly Ascending Demon Lord that he had stored it in his storage bracelet. Its value must be considerable.
lín xuān liǎn shàng yì lù chū níng zhòng zhī sè 。
林轩脸上亦露出凝重之色。
Lin Xuan's face also showed a serious expression. He raised his right hand, and the Jade Pupil Scroll seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, flashing with spiritual light before landing in his palm.
yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， nà yù tóng jiǎn fǎng fú bèi yī gǔ wú xíng de lì liàng qiān yǐn zhe ， líng guāng yī shǎn ， jiù luò rù le tā de zhǎng xīn lǐ miàn 。
右手抬起，那玉瞳简仿佛被一股无形的力量牵引着，灵光一闪，就落入了他的掌心里面。
Lin Xuan lowered his head slightly as he sank his divine sense into it. Black characters appeared in his mind one by one.
lín xuān wēi wēi dī xià tou lú ， jiāng shén shí chén rù 。
林轩微微低下头颅，将神识沉入。
This turned out to be a cultivation technique.
yí gè gè hēi sè de wén zì ， zài tā de nǎo hǎi zhōng fú xiàn ér chū 。
一个个黑色的文字，在他的脑海中浮现而出。
A look of surprise appeared on Lin Xuan's face as he decided to comprehend it thoroughly.
zhè jìng shì yī piān gōng fǎ 。
这竟是一篇功法。
Three days and three nights later, Lin Xuan raised his head again. His expression was full of uncertainty.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī chà yì zhī sè ， gān cuì cān wù qǐ lái le 。
林轩脸上露出一丝诧异之色，干脆参悟起来了。
This cultivation technique proved far more complex than he had imagined.
sān tiān sān yè zhī hòu ， lín xuān cái tái qǐ tóu lú 。
三天三夜之后，林轩才抬起头颅。
After all, Lin Xuan had an extensive knowledge base and was a late-stage cultivator who had mastered the Mystic Moon Heaven Witch Technique, which was intricate and obscure.
liǎn shàng mǎn shì yīn qíng bù dìng zhī sè 。
脸上满是阴晴不定之色。
Logically speaking, even if the technique itself was somewhat obscure, it should have taken him at least one or two days to comprehend it. However, after three days, Lin Xuan still had no clue.
zhè piān gōng fǎ ， jìng yuǎn bǐ tā xiǎng xiàng de ， yào fù zá xǔ duō 。
这篇功法，竟远比他想象的，要复杂许多。
This situation seemed incredible just by thinking about it.
yào zhī dào lín xuān shè liè guǎng bó ， běn shēn yòu shì dù jié hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě ， suǒ xiū liàn de mò yuè tiān wū jué ， gèng shì xuán miào huì sè 。
要知道林轩涉猎广博，本身又是渡劫后期的修仙者，所修炼的墨月天巫诀，更是玄妙晦涩。
The Nine Holy Heavenly Demon Technique truly was non-trivial!
àn lǐ shuō ， yī piān gōng fǎ ， jiāo dào lín xuān de shǒu lǐ ， nǎ pà běn shēn jiào wéi huì sè ， yǒu gè yī tiān yī yè de shí jiān ， yě zú yǐ ràng tā cān wù 。
按理说，一篇功法，交到林轩的手里，哪怕本身较为晦涩，有个一天一夜的时间，也足以让他参悟。
If his guess was correct, this was likely the main cultivation technique of that Heavenly Ascending Demon Lord himself.
rán ér sān tiān xià lái le ， lín xuān què yī jiù yì diǎn tóu xù yě wú 。
然而三天下来了，林轩却依旧一点头绪也无。
Would his second元婴 be able to practice it?
zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng ， guāng shì xiǎng xiǎng ， jiù jué de bù kě sī yì le 。
这种情况，光是想想，就觉得不可思议了。
Lin Xuan wasn't greedy. His second元婴 had already been practicing demon techniques. However, with his current strength, the power of Snow Shadow True Devil Technique seemed slightly weaker. Over time, this gap would continue to widen between him and his main元婴.
zhè jiǔ shèng tiān mó gōng hái zhēn shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ！
这九圣天魔功还真是非同小可！
This was a situation Lin Xuan didn't want to see. The Nine Holy Heavenly Demon Technique could be used as an emergency measure.
ruò shì zì jǐ méi yǒu liào cuò ， duō bàn shì nà wèi fēi tiān mó zhǔ zì jǐ de zhǔ xiū gōng fǎ le 。
若是自己没有料错，多半是那位飞天魔主自己的主修功法了。
Of course, it wouldn't be useful on the way to the Fallen Demon Valley; after all, changing cultivation techniques wasn't something that happened overnight.
bù zhī dào zì jǐ de dì èr yuán yīng shì fǒu kě yǐ xiū liàn ne ？
不知道自己的第二元婴是否可以修炼呢？
With this in mind, Lin Xuan put the Jade Pupil Scroll into his pocket.
lín xuān bìng bú shì tān duō 。
林轩并不是贪多。
There was nothing else on the ground. The Heavenly Ascending Demon Ancestor had left few treasures behind.
tā de dì èr yuán yīng yuán běn jiù xiū liàn de mó dào gōng fǎ 。
他的第二元婴原本就修炼的魔道功法。
Lin Xuan didn’t show any disappointment on his face. A person should be content with what they have; apart from the pills whose uses he did not know, the other talismans and the Jade Pupil Scroll were priceless treasures.
rán ér shí lì dào le zhè ge děng jí ， xuě yǐng zhēn mó gōng de wēi lì ， yǐ xiǎn de shāo wēi ruò le xiē 。 suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， hái huì jì xù zēng dà yǔ zhǔ yuán yīng zhī jiān de chā jù 。
然而实力到了这个等级，雪影真魔功的威力，已显得稍微弱了些。随着时间的推移，还会继续增大与主元婴之间的差距。
Lin Xuan resumed his seated position to nourish his spirit and energy.
zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng 。 xiǎn rán shì lín xuān bù xiǎng kàn dào dì 。
这种情况。显然是林轩不想看到地。
...
zhè jiǔ shèng tiān mó gōng qià hǎo kě yǐ yòng lái jiù jí 。
这九圣天魔功恰好可以用来救急。
Twenty days passed in a blink.
dāng rán ， cǐ qù zhuì mó gǔ què méi yǒu shén me yòng chǔ ， bì jìng gēng huàn xiū liàn de gōng fǎ kě bú shì yī zhāo yī xī 。
当然，此去坠魔谷却没有什么用处，毕竟更换修炼的功法可不是一朝一夕。
The Spirit Boat flew swiftly, bringing Lin Xuan close to the Fallen Demon Valley.
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， lín xuān jiāng yù tóng jiǎn shōu rù le huái lǐ 。
想到这里，林轩将玉瞳简收入了怀里。
By "close," it was relative. In actual distance, there were still nearly a million miles away.
dì shàng yǐ bié wú tā wù ， fēi tiān mó zǔ liú xià lái de yí bǎo bìng bù duō 。
地上已别无他物，飞天魔祖留下来的遗宝并不多。
Lin Xuan stopped the Spirit Boat.
lín xuān liǎn shàng dào yě bìng méi yǒu liú lù chū shén me shī wàng zhī sè ， rén guì zhī zú ， chú le nà dān yào bù zhī yòng tú ， qí yú de fú lù hái yǒu yù tóng dōu shì jià zhí lián chéng zhī wù 。
林轩脸上倒也并没有流露出什么失望之色，人贵知足，除了那丹药不知用途，其余的符箓还有玉瞳都是价值连城之物。
A million miles might be unattainable for ordinary people, but for cultivators at this level, it was within their divine sense's range.
lín xuān chóng xīn pán xī ér zuò 。 yǎng jīng xù ruì qǐ lái le 。
林轩重新盘膝而坐。养精蓄锐起来了。
In other words, if he continued to approach, his figure could potentially become visible.
……
……
Thus, Lin Xuan chose to stop. He had come here to save someone and knew that the opponent had set numerous traps. Lin Xuan wouldn't foolishly rush in.
èr shí tiān de shí jiān yī huǎng ér guò 。
二十天的时间一晃而过。
As the saying went: "Outwit rather than outmuscle." Although Lin Xuan had advanced to late-stage cultivation, he still believed that brute force couldn’t solve problems; using wisdom was more efficient.
líng zhōu fēi xíng xùn sù ， lín xuān yǐ jiē jìn le zhuì mó gǔ 。
灵舟飞行迅速，林轩已接近了坠魔谷。
The opponent had given him a month’s time.
shuō jiē jìn ， qí shí yě shì xiāng duì lái shuō 。
说接近，其实也是相对来说。
According to Qin Yan's plan, Lin Xuan would likely have several days to consider things carefully before setting off again. Ten days should be enough for this journey.
zhēn yào suàn jù lí ， qí shí hái yǒu jìn bǎi wàn lǐ zì zhī yáo de 。
真要算距离，其实还有近百万里自之遥的。
Qin Yan's calculations were correct, but Lin Xuan was much more resolute than she anticipated. He didn't hesitate; after receiving the news, he set out immediately, saving him a lot of time.
lín xuān tíng xià le líng zhōu 。
林轩停下了灵舟。
Arriving ten days early, even if Fairy Cloudy Lady had planned everything meticulously, it would still be unforeseen.
bǎi wàn lǐ ， duì yú fán rén lái shuō yáo bù kě jí ， dàn duì yú tā men zhè ge děng jí de xiū xiān zhě lái shuō ， yǐ dào le shén shí miǎn qiǎng kě jí de jù lí 。
百万里，对于凡人来说遥不可及，但对于他们这个等级的修仙者来说，已到了神识勉强可及的距离。
In other words, Lin Xuan had gained an advantage. With his deep scheming, he naturally intended to make full use of it.
huàn jù huà shuō 。 ruò jì xù jiē jìn ， jiù yǒu kě néng shēn xíng bào lù 。
换句话说。若继续接近，就有可能身形暴露。
If he could sneak into the Fallen Demon Valley without anyone noticing and rescue a few girls, that would be perfect.
gù ér ， lín xuān xuǎn zé tíng xià lái le 。
故而，林轩选择停下来了。
Even if he couldn't do so, quietly sneaking in was much better than foolishly rushing in.
tā cǐ qù ， shì wèi le jiù rén ， míng zhī dào duì fāng bù xià le chóng chóng xiǎn zǔ ， lín xuān dāng rán bú huì shǎ hū hū de wǎng shàng chuǎng le 。
他此去，是为了救人，明知道对方布下了重重险阻，林轩当然不会傻乎乎的往上闯了。
With this thought, Lin Xuan took a deep breath. His body emitted a sudden burst of spiritual light, but as time passed, his aura grew weaker until it was barely perceptible.
sú huà shuō 。 dòu zhì bù dòu lì ， lín xuān rú jīn ， suī yǐ jìn jiē dù jié hòu qī ， yī jiù xiāng xìn ， mán lì jiě jué bù liǎo wèn tí 。 yòng zhì huì gèng jiā de shěng lì 。
俗话说。斗智不斗力，林轩如今，虽已进阶渡劫后期，依旧相信，蛮力解决不了问题。用智慧更加的省力。
The Mystic Moon Heaven Witch Technique had an effect of returning to its most fundamental form. With his current strength, Lin Xuan had mastered the art of concealing his presence to such a degree that it seemed almost ethereal.
duì fāng gěi chū de shì yí yuè zhī qī 。
对方给出的是一月之期。
He transformed into a faint streak of light and flew towards the Fallen Demon Valley.
àn zhào qín yán de xiǎng fǎ ， zì jǐ duō bàn huì yǒu jǐ tiān de shí jiān qù xì xì kǎo lǜ 。
按照秦妍的想法，自己多半会有几天的时间去细细考虑。
Half an hour later, a range of undulating mountains came into view.
shèng xià de zài gǎn lù 。 nà me shí tiān de shí jiān ， yě jiù gāng gāng gòu yòng ér yǐ 。
剩下的再赶路。那么十天的时间，也就刚刚够用而已。
Deep within these mountains lay the Fallen Demon Valley, a place feared even by high-stage cultivators.
qín yán de suàn jì yuán běn méi cuò ， rán ér lín xuān què bǐ tā suǒ xiǎng de ， yào jiān jué xǔ duō 。
秦妍的算计原本没错，然而林轩却比她所想的，要坚决许多。
A thick fog enveloped the area, but from far away, Lin Xuan could feel terrifying demonic energy emanating from it.
gēn běn jiù méi yǒu sī lǜ dān gē ， dé dào xiāo xī yǐ hòu ， zhí jiē shàng lù ， rú cǐ yī lái ， zì rán yě jiù jié shěng diào xǔ duō shí jiān le 。
根本就没有思虑耽搁，得到消息以后，直接上路，如此一来，自然也就节省掉许多时间了。
Legends said that countless域外demons and ancient cultivators had fallen in battle here. It seemed these stories were true.
tí qián shí tiān dào lái 。
提前十天到来。
Lin Xuan had visited the Ancient Demon Realm before...
zhè yì diǎn ， jí biàn yún zhōng xiān zi suàn wú yí cè ， duō bàn yě shì liào xiǎng bú dào de 。
这一点，即便云中仙子算无遗策，多半也是料想不到的。
But the demon energy here was vastly different from that of the Ancient Demon Realm, much more intimidating.
huàn jù huà shuō ， zì jǐ yě qiǎng zhàn dào le yì diǎn xiān jī ， nà yǐ lín xuān de chéng fǔ ， dāng rán yào hǎo hǎo lì yòng yī fān dì 。
换句话说，自己也抢占到了一点先机，那以林轩的城府，当然要好好利用一番地。
Lin Xuan did not rashly enter the Fallen Demon Valley but landed at its periphery instead. He chose a hidden location and took out his flying sword to create a crude cave dwelling.
ruò shì néng shén bù zhī guǐ bù jué de qián rù zhuì mó gǔ ， jiāng jǐ gè yā tou jiù zǒu ， nà shì zài hǎo bù guò 。
若是能神不知鬼不觉的潜入坠魔谷，将几个丫头救走，那是再好不过。
Lin Xuan sat cross-legged and released an extremely powerful divine sense, carefully searching.
jí biàn zuò bú dào ， qiāo qiāo qián rù ， yě bǐ shǎ hū hū de yìng chuǎng yào hǎo shàng xǔ duō 。
即便做不到，悄悄潜入，也比傻乎乎的硬闯要好上许多。
The Fallen Demon Valley was vast with countless dangers. Lin Xuan wouldn't recklessly rush in; he would first use his divine sense to search, although he didn’t expect to find the girls' whereabouts, at least he could gather some clues, making his efforts more targeted and easier.
yī niàn zhì cǐ ， lín xuān shēn shēn hū xī ， hún shēn shàng xià líng máng zhòu qǐ ， rán ér suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， tā hún shēn de qì xī què yuè lái yuè ruò ， zhí zhì ruò yǒu ruò wú 。
一念至此，林轩深深呼吸，浑身上下灵芒骤起，然而随着时间的推移，他浑身的气息却越来越弱，直至若有若无。
Of course, this idea was easy to think of but difficult to implement. Since Fairy Cloudy Lady had chosen the Fallen Demon Valley, she would undoubtedly set countless traps here out of both reason and emotion.
mò yuè tiān wū jué yuán běn jiù yǒu fǎn pú guī zhēn de xiào guǒ ， yǐ lín xuān rú jīn de shí lì ， gèng jiāng liǎn qì qián cáng zhī shù ， xiū liàn dào chū shén rù huà de dì bù 。
墨月天巫诀原本就有返璞归真的效果，以林轩如今的实力，更将敛气潜藏之术，修炼到出神入化的地步。
Lin Xuan’s divine sense search might accidentally trigger a禁制, alerting her.
suí hòu tā biàn chéng yī lǚ dàn dàn de jīng hóng ， fēi xiàng le zhuì mó gǔ 。
随后他变成一缕淡淡的惊虹，飞向了坠魔谷。
That would be counterproductive.
xiǎo bàn gè shí chén zhī hòu ， yī piàn lián mián qǐ fú de qún shān ， yìng rù dào le yǎn lián zhōng 。
小半个时辰之后，一片连绵起伏的群山，映入到了眼帘中。
Lin Xuan knew this; he dared to do so because he believed he had some leverage.
qún shān shēn chù ， biàn shì lìng gāo jiē xiū shì yě tán zhī sè biàn de zhuì mó gǔ 。
群山深处，便是令高阶修士也谈之色变的坠魔谷。
While other abilities were not mentioned, in terms of divine sense, Lin Xuan was confident that his was at least as strong as that of the Loose Immortal Demon King.
wài miàn lǒng zhào zhe yī céng nóng nóng de mí wù ， jí biàn gé dé lǎo yuǎn ， lín xuān yě néng gǎn jué dào ， yǒu kě pà de mó qì tòu shè ér chū 。
外面笼罩着一层浓浓的迷雾，即便隔得老远，林轩也能感觉到，有可怕的魔气透射而出。
How could a Loose Immortal Demon King compare? His divine sense likely wasn’t inferior to legendary True Immortals.
chuán shuō ， wú shù yù wài tiān mó yǔ gǔ xiū shì huǒ bìng zhī hòu zài zhè lǐ yǔn luò ， kàn lái zhè xiē shuō fǎ guǒ rán shì zhēn de 。
传说，无数域外天魔与古修士火并之后在这里陨落，看来这些说法果然是真的。
Play to his strengths!
gǔ mó jiè lín xuān qù guò 。
古魔界林轩去过。
Thus, while this search was complex, Lin Xuan still had confidence in not alerting Fairy Cloudy Lady.
dàn yǎn qián de mó qì ， què yǔ gǔ mó jiè dà bù xiāng tóng ， kě yǐ shuō ， hái yào lìng rén wèi jù hài pà xǔ duō 。
但眼前的魔气，却与古魔界大不相同，可以说，还要令人畏惧害怕许多。
Time passed slowly. An hour later, Lin Xuan opened his eyes.
lín xuān méi yǒu mào mào rán chuǎng rù zhuì mó gǔ 。
林轩没有冒冒然闯入坠魔谷。
"Master, any clues?"
ér shì zài wài wéi jiàng luò ， suí hòu jū rán xuǎn le yī yǐn bì de dì diǎn ， qǔ chū fēi jiàn ， kāi pì le yī jiǎn lòu de dòng fǔ 。
而是在外围降落，随后居然选了一隐蔽的地点，取出飞剑，开辟了一简陋的洞府。
Moon's voice entered his ears; she and Little Butterfly had come to stand beside him.
lín xuān pán xī ér zuò ， suí hòu jiāng qiáng dà yǐ jí de shén shí fàng chū 。
林轩盘膝而坐，随后将强大以极的神识放出。
Lin Xuan didn't speak but reached into the storage bracelet on his waist, taking out a Jade Pupil Scroll.
kāi shǐ xì xì ér xiǎo xīn de sōu suǒ 。
开始细细而小心的搜索。
This was an empty scroll. He placed it on his forehead and injected his divine sense, drawing a map based on memory.
zhuì mó gǔ miàn jī guǎng bó ， lǐ miàn wēi xiǎn gèng shì shǔ bù shèng shǔ ， lín xuān dāng rán bú huì rú méi tóu cāng yíng yì bān de luàn chuǎng le 。
坠魔谷面积广博，里面危险更是数不胜数，林轩当然不会如没头苍蝇一般的乱闯了。
A map of the Fallen Demon Valley.
xiān yòng shén shí sōu suǒ ， suī rán bù shē wàng zhǎo dào jǐ gè yā tou de xià luò ， dàn zhì shǎo yě néng què dìng yī xiē xiàn suǒ ， yǒu dì fàng shǐ ， zì rán ér rán jiù huì bǐ luàn chuǎng róng yì xǔ duō 。
先用神识搜索，虽然不奢望找到几个丫头的下落，但至少也能确定一些线索，有的放矢，自然而然就会比乱闯容易许多。
In just a short while, it wouldn’t be detailed, but with this map, finding the girls’ whereabouts would be much easier.
dāng rán ， zhè ge sī lù xiǎng dào róng yì ， zhēn yào zuò ， què yě shì pǒ wèi lìng rén tóu téng de 。
当然，这个思路想到容易，真要做，却也是颇为令人头疼的。
Lin Xuan’s plan was to find their hiding place directly if luck favored him. With one swift move, he could rescue them all. That would be ideal.
The Jade Pupil Scroll was a common item in the cultivation world, but it was treasured so much by Heavenly Ascending Demon Lord that he had stored it in his storage bracelet. Its value must be considerable.
Lin Xuan's face also showed a serious expression. He raised his right hand, and the Jade Pupil Scroll seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, flashing with spiritual light before landing in his palm.

Lin Xuan resumed his seated position to nourish his spirit and energy.
...
Twenty days passed in a blink.
The Spirit Boat flew swiftly, bringing Lin Xuan close to the Fallen Demon Valley.
By "close," it was relative. In actual distance, there were still nearly a million miles away.
Lin Xuan stopped the Spirit Boat.
A million miles might be unattainable for ordinary people, but for cultivators at this level, it was within their divine sense's range.
