suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， shēn qián de yù fú guāng yùn tūn tǔ ， wú shù xì rú mǐ lì de fú wén yóu qí biǎo miàn yī pēn ér chū ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì fāng yuán bǎi lǐ ， xū kōng tū rán hūn àn le xià qù 。**
随着他的动作，身前的玉符光晕吞吐，无数细如米粒的符文由其表面一喷而出，与之伴随的是方圆百里，虚空突然昏暗了下去。**
As he moved, the jade talisman before him emitted a flickering light. Countless fine符文, like grains of rice, burst forth from its surface, and in an instant, the surrounding area within a hundred miles dimmed.
lín xuān de biǎo qíng níng zhòng yǐ jí ， zài cì yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn le chū qù ：“ jí ！”
林轩的表情凝重以极，再次右手抬起，一指向前点了出去：“疾！”
Lin Xuan's expression was extremely serious. He raised his right hand again and pointed it forward: "Quickly!"
huà yīn wèi luò ， xū kōng zhōng qīng cuì de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhǐ jiàn nà yù fú biǎo miàn de líng guāng ， tū rán biàn dé cì mù ， rú qì yàn yì bān xióng xióng rán shāo qǐ lái le 。
话音未落，虚空中清脆的声音传入耳朵，只见那玉符表面的灵光，突然变得刺目，如气焰一般熊熊燃烧起来了。
Before he could finish speaking, a clear sound echoed through the void. The light on the jade talisman suddenly became glaring, burning like flames.
suí hòu yù fú huà wèi xū wú ， qǔ ér dài zhī de shì jǐ gè liàng lì de guāng diǎn fú xiàn ér chū ， bìng qiě yī chàn zhī xià ， yǐ bù kě sī yì de sù dù ， guǐ yì biàn dà qǐ lái le 。
随后玉符化为虚无，取而代之的是几个亮丽的光点浮现而出，并且一颤之下，以不可思议的速度，诡异变大起来了。
The jade talisman then vanished into nothingness, replaced by several bright light points that rapidly grew in size.
zhuǎn shùn jiān ， jiù huà wèi zhí jìng zhàng xǔ de páng rán dà wù ， suí hòu yòu wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， biàn huàn chéng le yī guǐ yì de xuán wō 。
转瞬间，就化为直径丈许的庞然大物，随后又往中间一合，变幻成了一诡异的漩涡。
In an instant, these light points transformed into a massive object with a diameter of ten feet, and then they converged to form a strange vortex.
shēn bú jiàn dǐ ， yǐn yǐn sàn fà chū lìng rén xīn jì de fǎ zé zhī lì 。
深不见底，隐隐散发出令人心悸的法则之力。
It was bottomless, emitting a palpable force of法则.
“ zhè jiù shì tōng wǎng yáo chí de rù kǒu me ， dào zhēn hái shì yī bié zhì zhī wù 。”
“这就是通往瑶池的入口么，倒真还是一别致之物。”
"This is the entrance to the Jade Pool, indeed a unique place."
lín xuān yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， zì yán zì yǔ de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
林轩以手抚额，自言自语的声音传入耳朵。
Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead as he spoke aloud. If it were another cultivator facing such a situation, they would surely be filled with fear. However, Lin Xuan's expression remained calm and peaceful.
ruò huàn yī míng xiū xiān zhě ， miàn duì zhè zhǒng zhuàng kuàng ， fēi dà gǎn wèi jù bù kě ， rán ér lín xuān liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng què shì ān jìng píng hé 。
若换一名修仙者，面对这种状况，非大感畏惧不可，然而林轩脸上的表情却是安静平和。
For him, mere spatial forces held no significance.
qū qū yī xiē kōng jiān zhī lì ， duì yú rú jīn de tā lái shuō ， yǐ jīng méi yǒu shén me liǎo bù qǐ 。
区区一些空间之力，对于如今的他来说，已经没有什么了不起。
With no trace of fear on his face, Lin Xuan stepped into the vortex before him.
lín xuān liǎn shàng sī háo wèi jù yě wú ， mài bù zǒu rù le yǎn qián de xuán wō 。
林轩脸上丝毫畏惧也无，迈步走入了眼前的漩涡。
The scenery in front of him blurred as if he was traversing through time and space.
yǎn qián de jǐng wù yī zhèn mó hú ， fǎng fú zài shí jiān yǔ kōng jiān de fèng xì zhōng chuān suō 。
眼前的景物一阵模糊，仿佛在时间与空间的缝隙中穿梭。
It was hard to describe that feeling with words. It wasn't like breaking through the void or teleportation over great distances; it felt as though only an instant had passed yet seemed like a century.
nà zhǒng gǎn jué ， nán yǐ yòng yán yǔ shuō dé qīng chǔ 。
那种感觉，难以用言语说得清楚。
"This is... Time Force!"
bù xiàng pò suì xū kōng ， yě bù xiàng chāo yuǎn jù lí de chuán sòng 。
不像破碎虚空，也不像超远距离的传送。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. The entrance to the Jade Pool combined time and space forces in a seamless manner, demonstrating a profound understanding of法则.
fǎng fú jǐn jǐn guò le shùn xī ， yòu fǎng fú màn cháng dé xiàng shì jīng guò le yí gè shì jì 。
仿佛仅仅过了瞬息，又仿佛漫长得像是经过了一个世纪。
He was truly at the pinnacle of his comprehension, especially for such a mysterious time force.
“ zhè shì …… shí jiān zhī lì ！”
“这是……时间之力！”
"Brother Lin!"
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， zhè yáo chí de rù kǒu ， jìng rán jiāng shí jiān yǔ kōng jiān de lì liàng hù xiāng jié hé 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，这瑶池的入口，竟然将时间与空间的力量互相结合。
Little Butterfly remained within the Momentary Heavenly Palace Scroll. She couldn't come out under these circumstances as it would be repelled by the powerful force of法则.
qiǎo duó tiān gōng ， ràng rén sī háo yě bù gǎn jué tū wù 。
巧夺天工，让人丝毫也不感觉突兀。
However, even in the scroll, Little Butterfly sensed the mystery of this Jade Pool entrance.
zhè duì fǎ zé zhī lì de lǐng wù ， jiǎn zhí yǐ dào le lú huǒ chún qīng de dì bù 。
这对法则之力的领悟，简直已到了炉火纯青的地步。
As they say, an outsider sees only the spectacle, while an insider sees the details.
ér qiě hái shì zuì wèi shén mì de shí jiān fǎ zé 。
而且还是最为神秘的时间法则。
Most cultivators might just feel a bit surprised. But Lin Xuan and Little Butterfly's feelings were vastly different—shock!
“ lín xiōng ！”
“林兄！”
Only that word could describe it.
xiǎo dié yī jiù dài zài xū yú dòng tiān tú ， zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià ， tā shì méi yǒu bàn fǎ chū lái de ， fǒu zé fēi bèi zhè gǔ qiáng dà de fǎ zé zhī lì 。 pái chì chū qù bù kě 。
小蝶依旧待在须臾洞天图，这种情况下，她是没有办法出来的，否则非被这股强大的法则之力。排斥出去不可。
Lin Xuan was a highly self-assured cultivator with extensive knowledge and far greater strength than his peers.
rán ér jí biàn rú cǐ ， zài xū yú dòng tiān tú zhōng ， xiǎo dié yě gǎn jué dào le zhè yáo chí rù kǒu de shén mì zhī chù 。
然而即便如此，在须臾洞天图中，小蝶也感觉到了这瑶池入口的神秘之处。
He was so confident that he could face any ordinary late-stage existence without fear, except for the top-tier powerhouses.
sú huà shuō ， wài háng kàn rè nào ， nèi háng kān mén dào 。
俗话说，外行看热闹，内行看门道。
Little Butterfly’s true form was the Illusory Moon Moth. The晋级 of spirit insects was notoriously difficult compared to humans or even other beasts.
ruò shì pǔ tōng de xiū xiān zhě ， duō bàn zhǐ shì gǎn jué dào yǒu xiē jīng qí bà le 。
若是普通的修仙者，多半只是感觉到有些惊奇罢了。
Nature was fair; once a spirit insect succeeded in晋级, its strength far surpassed that of its peers.
rán ér lín xuān yǔ xiǎo dié de gǎn shòu ， què shì dà wèi bù tóng 。
然而林轩与小蝶的感受，却是大为不同。
So Little Butterfly was also very proud.
zhèn hàn ！
震撼！
Despite the presence of many powerful figures at the Peach Banquet, they had never felt truly threatened. However, their attitudes changed subtly as both sensed a hint of fear from each other.
duì ， zhǐ yǒu zhè ge cí néng gòu xíng róng 。
对，只有这个词能够形容。
Their original optimism was misplaced; one could not underestimate heroes from all over the world.
lín xuān shì zì shì shèn gāo de xiū xiān zhě ， tā shè liè guǎng bó ， shí lì yuǎn shèng tóng jiē cún zài xǔ duō 。
林轩是自视甚高的修仙者，他涉猎广博，实力远胜同阶存在许多。
Who had opened this entrance to the Jade Pool?
kě yǐ háo bù kuā zhāng de shuō 。 chú le dǐng jí qiáng zhě ， yī pǔ tōng de hòu qī cún zài ， duì rú jīn de lín xuān ， shì sī háo wēi xié yě wú 。
可以毫不夸张的说。除了顶级强者，一普通的后期存在，对如今的林轩，是丝毫威胁也无。
Lin Xuan was filled with admiration. He had never seen True Immortals and couldn't gauge their strength, but whoever had opened the entrance must have been no less powerful than an Immortal.
ér xiǎo dié de běn tǐ shì huàn yuè é 。
而小蝶的本体是幻月蛾。
His expression fluctuated between confidence and unease as he continued forward.
yào zhī dào líng chóng jìn jí ， bié shuō bǐ zhī rén lèi xiū xiān zhě ， jiù suàn shì tóng yāo shòu xiāng bǐ ， yě shì kùn nán yǐ jí 。
要知道灵虫晋级，别说比之人类修仙者，就算是同妖兽相比，也是困难以极。
It felt like walking through time and space.
ér lǎo tiān yé shì gōng píng dì ， huò zhě shuō ， tiān dào zì yǒu qí yùn zhuàn de fǎ zé 。
而老天爷是公平地，或者说，天道自有其运转的法则。
After what seemed like a long while, a bright light suddenly appeared ahead.
líng chóng jì rán jìn jí yǒu fēi cháng dà de nán dù 。 nà yí dàn chéng gōng le ， shí lì bǐ zhī tóng jiē de rén lèi ， yāo zú ， nà jiù yào qiáng dé duō 。
灵虫既然晋级有非常大的难度。那一旦成功了，实力比之同阶的人类，妖族，那就要强得多。
Was this the exit?
shuō bù kě tóng rì ér yǔ yě méi yǒu cuò 。
说不可同日而语也没有错。
Lin Xuan was elated. He took a deep breath but didn't hesitate to step forward. A sense of dizziness arose.
suǒ yǐ xiǎo dié yī yàng shì fēi cháng jiāo ào de 。
所以小蝶一样是非常骄傲的。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. As a late-stage cultivator who had weathered many trials, such discomfort was rare even when breaking through the void.
pán táo huì shàng suī rán gāo shǒu rú yún 。 dàn shuō shí huà ， liǎng rén gēn běn jiù méi yǒu pà guò 。
蟠桃会上虽然高手如云。但说实话，两人根本就没有怕过。
However, Lin Xuan remained calm. He clasped his hands and released a surge of法力 from his dantian, flowing through his meridians, dispelling the dizziness instantly.
rán ér zhè shí hòu ， liǎng rén de xīn tài què qiǎo rán fā shēng biàn huà le ， bǐ cǐ dōu gǎn jué dào duì fāng liú lù chū yī sī jì dàn zhī sè 。
然而这时候，两人的心态却悄然发生变化了，彼此都感觉到对方流露出一丝忌惮之色。
A sea of clouds stretched before him.
yuán xiān de xiǎng fǎ tài lè guān le 。 guǒ rán bù néng xiǎo kàn tiān xià yīng xióng 。
原先的想法太乐观了。果然不能小看天下英雄。
Indeed, it was a cloud sea!
zhè yáo chí rù kǒu ， jiū jìng shì shuí kāi pì chū lái de ？
这瑶池入口，究竟是谁开辟出来的？
Endless in sight.
lín xuān xīn zhōng chú le pèi fú hái shì pèi fú 。
林轩心中除了佩服还是佩服。
Lin Xuan's expression showed surprise as he hadn't used御风术. How had he ended up in the sky?
zhēn xiān lín xuān bù céng jiàn guò ， chuán shuō zhōng de xiān rén jiū jìng yǒu duō qiáng 。 zì rán yě jiù bù tài hǎo shuō 。
真仙林轩不曾见过，传说中的仙人究竟有多强。自然也就不太好说。
Recalling the Jade Pool, ancient legends spoke of its location above the heavens. Could this not be mere hearsay but have some basis?
dàn zhè kāi pì yáo chí rù kǒu de jiā huo ， shí lì kǒng pà bú jiàn de bǐ xiān rén xùn sè 。
但这开辟瑶池入口的家伙，实力恐怕不见得比仙人逊色。
Lin Xuan's thoughts raced. His initial shock gradually subsided.
lín xuān de liǎn sè ， biàn dé yīn qíng bù dìng qǐ lái le 。
林轩的脸色，变得阴晴不定起来了。
He looked around, taking in his surroundings.
dàn shì qíng dào le zhè yī bù ， zǒng bù kě néng tuì suō ， hé kuàng zì jǐ qián qù cān jiā pán táo huì ， mù dì shì xún mì bǎo wù ， ér fēi tóng yǔ lán shāng méng wèi dí de 。
但事情到了这一步，总不可能退缩，何况自己前去参加蟠桃会，目的是寻觅宝物，而非同雨岚商盟为敌的。
A beam of light caught his eye.
pà shén me ？
怕什么？
It had been at the horizon just now and suddenly appeared before him.
yǎo yǎo yá ， lín xuān jì xù xiàng qián zǒu qù le 。
咬咬牙，林轩继续向前走去了。
Soon, a灵舟 materialized a few feet away.
fǎng fú zài shí jiān yǔ kōng jiān de fèng xì zhōng màn bù 。
仿佛在时间与空间的缝隙中漫步。
"Welcome, esteemed senior! You have arrived at the Jade Pool. The Peach Banquet will start in a month; shall I take you to the inn for rest?"
yě bù zhī dào guò qù le duō jiǔ ， qián fāng tū rán chū xiàn le yī zhèn qiáng guāng ， biàn dé wú bǐ de míng liàng 。
也不知道过去了多久，前方突然出现了一阵强光，变得无比的明亮。
The speaker was a beautiful woman standing on the boat. She was about twenty years old and though not stunningly beautiful, she was graceful and elegant.
zhōng yú dào chū kǒu le me ？
终于到出口了么？
"Thank you," Lin Xuan said indifferently.
lín xuān xīn zhōng dà xǐ ， shēn shēn hū xī ， què yě bìng bù chí yí ， bù lǚ píng huǎn de zǒu le guò qù 。
林轩心中大喜，深深呼吸，却也并不迟疑，步履平缓的走了过去。
He stepped onto the boat with a flash of his form.
yī zhèn xuàn yūn de gǎn jué fú xiàn ér qǐ 。
一阵眩晕的感觉浮现而起。
The girl bowed gracefully as her hand shot out, casting a spell that transformed into a dazzling light beam, flying ahead.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， yào zhī dào tā rú jīn yǐ shì dù jié hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě ， zhè zhǒng bù shì de gǎn chù ， biàn shì pò suì xū kōng ， yě hěn shǎo chū xiàn le 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，要知道他如今已是渡劫后期的修仙者，这种不适的感触，便是破碎虚空，也很少出现了。
Clouds swirled around him, and icy gales brushed past his ears. But with his strength, he was unfazed. He observed the scenery around him: pavilions, terraces, mountains, waterfalls, and even dancing immortal cranes. It was a paradise on earth that left one entranced.
dàn lín xuān bìng méi yǒu zháo jí ， shuāng shǒu xū wò ， pēng pài de fǎ lì yóu dān tián zhōng bēn yǒng ér chū ， liú biàn qí jīng bā mài ， dùn shí xuàn yūn de gǎn jué rú guò yǎn yún yān ， xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
但林轩并没有着急，双手虚握，澎湃的法力由丹田中奔涌而出，流遍奇经八脉，顿时眩晕的感觉如过眼云烟，消失不见。
Lin Xuan felt refreshed.
yī piàn yún hǎi yìng rù yǎn lián 。
一片云海映入眼帘。
In half an hour, a large building appeared ahead.
méi cuò ， yún hǎi ！
没错，云海！
The structures were neatly arranged, beautiful in their own right.
yī yǎn wàng bú dào biān 。
一眼望不到边。
Soon, the boat arrived, the light dimmed, and it landed.
lín xuān liǎn shàng liú lù chū jīng yà zhī sè ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， zì jǐ bìng méi yǒu shī zhǎn chū yù fēng zhī shù ， zěn me huì chū xiàn zài tiān kōng shàng miàn ， yún hǎi zhī jiān ？
林轩脸上流露出惊讶之色，此时此刻，自己并没有施展出御风之术，怎么会出现在天空上面，云海之间？
The girl bowed gracefully as her voice rang out like pearls falling into a jade dish: "Esteemed senior, this is where you can rest. You may choose any of these buildings."
duì le ， yáo chí ！
对了，瑶池！
"Alright," Lin Xuan nodded.
gǔ lǎo xiāng chuán ， yáo chí xiān gōng wèi yú jiǔ tiān shàng miàn ， nán dào zhè bìng bú shì hú yán luàn shuō ， ér shì yǒu yí dìng yī jù de 。
古老相传，瑶池仙宫位于九天上面，难道这并不是胡言乱说，而是有一定依据的。
He scanned the surroundings; all the buildings were beautiful but had distinct styles. They were surrounded by colorful light barriers, and when he released his divine sense, it was repelled back.
lín xuān nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， yuán běn jīng yà de biǎo qíng ， yě jiàn jiàn de guī yú píng hé 。
林轩脑海中念头转过，原本惊讶的表情，也渐渐的归于平和。
The prohibition here was far more formidable than expected.
As he moved, the jade talisman before him emitted a flickering light. Countless fine符文, like grains of rice, burst forth from its surface, and in an instant, the surrounding area within a hundred miles dimmed.
Lin Xuan's expression was extremely serious. He raised his right hand again and pointed it forward: "Quickly!"
