qiáng zhě qí jù , zhè shì běn jiè pán táo huì zuì dà de kàn diǎn , tóng shí yě mái xià le yǐn huàn .
强者齐聚,这是本届蟠桃会最大的看点,同时也埋下了隐患.
Strong contenders gathered here, making this the highlight of the Peach Blossom Festival, but also harboring potential dangers.
méi cuò , xǐ yōu cān bàn ！
没错,喜忧参半！
Indeed, a mix of hope and worry!
rén men zài qī dài gè zhǒng bǎo wù chū xiàn de tóng shí , yě dān xīn zì jǐ shī qù le jìng zhēng lì .
人们在期待各种宝物出现的同时,也担心自己失去了竞争力.
As people anticipated various treasures, they also feared losing their competitive edge.
sān jiè qiáng zhě qí jù yáo chí , jí biàn zhēn chū xiàn le lìng rén xīn dòng de bǎo wù , zì jǐ yòu yǒu jǐ fēn bǎ wò , qiǎng dào shǒu ne ?
三界强者齐聚瑶池,即便真出现了令人心动的宝物,自己又有几分把握,抢到手呢?
With the three realms' strongest warriors converging on Penglai, even if heart-stirring treasures did appear, how could one be certain of securing them?
mén xīn zì wèn , zhè yàng de bǎ wò zhēn méi yǒu jǐ fēn .
扪心自问,这样的把握真没有几分.
Self-reflection revealed that such certainty was non-existent.
huàn dé huàn shī ！
患得患失！
Anxiety and anticipation!
zài zhè yàng tǎn tè de xīn qíng lǐ shí jiān què zài bù tíng de liú shì .
在这样忐忑的心情里时间却在不停的流逝.
Despite this anxious state, time continued to pass.
zhōng yú , pán táo huì kāi shǐ .
终于,蟠桃会开始.
Finally, the Peach Blossom Festival commenced.
wàn zhòng zhǔ mù , wú shù dù jié qī lǎo guài wù qiáo shǒu yǐ pàn de shèng shì zhōng yú lā kāi le wéi mù .
万众瞩目,无数渡劫期老怪物翘首以盼的盛事终于拉开了帷幕.
With great attention, countless old monsters at the Transcending Tribulation stage eagerly awaited the grand event's opening.
zhè tiān , zhāo yáng gāng gāng shēng qǐ , gǔ piáo de zhōng shēng biàn chuán rù le ěr biān .
这天,朝阳刚刚升起,古朴的钟声便传入了耳边.
On that day, as dawn broke, an ancient bell sounded in their ears.
níng jìng , yōu yuǎn ……
宁静,悠远……
Serene, distant...
nà zhōng shēng míng míng hào hàn yǐ jí , chōng mǎn le hóng huāng gǔ piáo de qì xī , piān piān què ràng rén de xīn jìng píng hé xià qù , yī qiè de fán nǎo dōu bèi xǐ dí .
那钟声明明浩瀚以极,充满了洪荒古朴的气息,偏偏却让人的心境平和下去,一切的烦恼都被洗涤.
Though the bell's sound was vast and filled with primordial antiquity, it strangely calmed one's heart, washing away all烦恼and worries.
gǎn jué shū shuǎng wú bǐ .
感觉舒爽无比.
Feeling incredibly refreshing.
lín xuān zhèn yī ér qǐ , tǔ chū yī kǒu xiōng zhōng de zhuó qì .
林轩振衣而起,吐出一口胸中的浊气.
Lin Xuan shook off his clothes, exhaling a mouthful of stale air.
cǐ zhōng tā yì shì jiǔ yǎng dà míng le dì , míng wèi " qù fán ", chuán shuō tīng shàng yī biàn , néng gòu xǐ jìng sān qiān fán nǎo sī , ruò shì xiū shì xīn jìng shàng de xiū liàn tíng zhì bù qián , tīng shàng shí èr xiǎng zhōng míng , shèn zhì yǒu kě néng tū pò píng jǐng .
此钟他亦是久仰大名了地,名为"去烦",传说听上一遍,能够洗净三千烦恼丝,若是修士心境上的修炼停滞不前,听上十二响钟鸣,甚至有可能突破瓶颈.
He had long heard about this bell named "Qifan," which could cleanse three thousand strands of烦恼. If a cultivator's mental cultivation was stagnant, hearing twelve rings might even help break through barriers.
yǒu xiē xuán hū , rán ér què jué wú kuā dà zhī chù .
有些玄乎,然而却绝无夸大之处.
Though somewhat mysterious, there was no exaggeration involved.
qù fán zhōng nǎi shì chuán chéng zì shàng gǔ , yǔ lán shāng méng yōng yǒu de míng zhèn tiān xià de bǎo wù .
去烦钟乃是传承自上古,雨岚商盟拥有的名震天下的宝物.
The Qifan Bell originated from the ancient past and was a renowned treasure owned by the Rain Mist Commerce Alliance.
chuán shuō yǒu rén céng qù yáo chí qiú qǔ , fèng shàng yī míng mén dà pài jī zǎn le bǎi wàn nián de jīng shí bǎo wù , què lián zhǔ shì zhě de miàn dōu méi yǒu jiàn zhe .
传说有人曾去瑶池求取,奉上一名门大派积攒了百万年的晶石宝物,却连主事者的面都没有见着.
It was said that someone had sought it out at Penglai, offering a century-old crystal stone treasure accumulated by a major sect, yet failed to even meet with the leader.
yǒu yī xiē bǎo wù , bìng bú shì yǒu qián jiù kě yǐ mǎi dào de .
有一些宝物,并不是有钱就可以买到的.
Some treasures couldn't be bought with money alone.
dāng rán . yǔ tóng xiān zi bìng fēi xiǎo qì lìn sè de rén wù , měi yī jiè pán táo huì kāi qǐ , shōu dào yāo qǐng mù míng ér lái de qiáng zhě , dōu yǒu miǎn fèi tīng shàng yī biàn qù fán zhōng míng xiǎng de zī gé .
当然.雨桐仙子并非小气吝啬的人物,每一届蟠桃会开启,收到邀请慕名而来的强者,都有免费听上一遍去烦钟鸣响的资格.
Of course, Fairy Yutong wasn't miserly. Every invited cultivator could hear the Qifan Bell for free during each Peach Blossom Festival.
sú huà shuō , bǎi wén bù rú yī dǔ .
俗话说,百闻不如一睹.
As they say, seeing is believing.
guān yú qù fán zhōng de chuán wén , lín xuān zài diǎn jí shàng kàn le xǔ duō , cǐ shí qīn shēn gǎn wù , mù yù zài zhōng shēng zhī zhōng . guǒ rán shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě .
关于去烦钟的传闻,林轩在典籍上看了许多,此时亲身感悟,沐浴在钟声之中.果然是非同小可.
Lin Xuan had read much about the Qifan Bell in ancient texts and now personally experienced it, feeling its profound effects.
zài zhè yī kè , suǒ yǒu de fán nǎo , fǎng fú zhēn de dōu bèi qù chú .
在这一刻,所有的烦恼,仿佛真的都被去除.
All烦恼seemed truly removed.
lìng rén xīn kuàng shén yí .
令人心旷神怡.
It was invigorating.
rán ér zhè yě zhù dìng zhǐ shì cuò jué ér yǐ .
然而这也注定只是错觉而已.
However, this was merely an illusion.
sú huà shuō , huī huì jiàn zhǎn qíng sī , rán ér qíng sī yòu qǐ shì nà me hǎo zhǎn dì .
俗话说,挥慧剑斩情丝,然而情丝又岂是那么好斩地.
Just as one could cut through emotional ties with a wise sword, doing so wasn't easy. The same applied to烦恼.
fán nǎo yě shì yī yàng de dào lǐ .
烦恼也是一样的道理.
While the Qifan Bell might offer some enlightenment, true removal of烦恼ultimately required personal effort. External aids like the bell could only provide temporary support at best.
qù fán zhōng huò xǔ kě yǐ gěi tīng zhě yī xiē gǎn wù , dàn zhēn xiǎng yào jiāng fán nǎo qù chú , guī gēn jié dǐ , hái shì xū yào zì jǐ de nǔ lì , wài wù duì yú xīn jìng de mó lì . yě jiù néng qǐ dào yī shí fǔ zhù de zuò yòng ér yǐ .
去烦钟或许可以给听者一些感悟,但真想要将烦恼去除,归根结底,还是需要自己的努力,外物对于心境的磨砺.也就能起到一时辅助的作用而已.
Lin Xuan sighed but didn't dwell on it. Regardless, the Qifan Bell's reputation was well-deserved; its effects on his mental cultivation were undeniable.
lín xuān tàn xī , què méi yǒu jiū jié zhè ge wèn tí , bù guǎn rú hé . qù fán zhōng shèng míng wú xū . duì zì jǐ xīn jìng de mó lì , duō duō shǎo shǎo , hái shì yǒu yī xiē bāng zhù dì .
林轩叹息,却没有纠结这个问题,不管如何.去烦钟盛名无虚.对自己心境的磨砺,多多少少,还是有一些帮助地.
Content with what he had achieved, Lin Xuan continued to reflect.
rén guì zhī zú , lín xuān xì xì gǎn wù .
人贵知足,林轩细细感悟.
The twelve rings of the bell echoed for days after their first sound. When they finally ended at noon, Lin Xuan was surprised by how long it felt like he'd been there. Recalling his time in the bell's presence, he gained some insights. While his mental state hadn't advanced significantly, previously minor flaws seemed to have vanished.
shí èr xiǎng zhōng shēng yōu yuǎn mián zhǎng , cóng dì yī shēng kāi shǐ , rào liáng sān rì . dāng shí èr xiǎng zhōng shēng jié shù , shí jiān jū rán yǐ shì zhèng wǔ , lín xuān liǎn shàng chū xiàn bù kě sī yì zhī sè , bù zhī bù jué , jū rán guò le zhè me jiǔ me ?
十二响钟声悠远绵长,从第一声开始,绕梁三日.当十二响钟声结束,时间居然已是正午,林轩脸上出现不可思议之色,不知不觉,居然过了这么久么?
Small differences could make a huge difference; these imperfections were crucial for his main元婴's advancement. Now, with them gone, entering the Transcending Tribulation后期seemed less distant.
huí xiǎng zì jǐ mù yù zài zhōng shēng zhōng de shí guāng .
回想自己沐浴在钟声中的时光.
Smiling, Lin Xuan felt that he had stumbled upon unexpected benefits before the festival began. Perhaps this boded well for his participation in the Peach Blossom Festival.
xì xì de . yǒu le yī xiē gǎn wù .
细细的.有了一些感悟.
Feeling optimistic, Lin Xuan left his cave and headed towards Moon Butterfly. The two women greeted him warmly before retreating into their Pocket Universe.
xīn jìng bù néng shuō wǎng qián mài le yī bù , dàn yuán běn de yī xiē xiá cī . què yǐ jīng bú jiàn le .
心境不能说往前迈了一步,但原本的一些瑕疵.却已经不见了.
Lin Xuan then emitted a bright green light, breaking through the space around him as he departed from the mysterious cave.
chā zhī háo lí miù yǐ qiān lǐ , zhè xiē xiá cī kàn shì bù qǐ yǎn yǐ jí , què shì jìn gù zhǔ yuán yīng jìn jí zuì zhòng yào de yīn shù .
差之毫厘谬以千里,这些瑕疵看似不起眼以极,却是禁锢主元婴晋级最重要的因数.
The surroundings blurred before the massive mountain reappeared in view.
rú jīn mò míng de bèi zhōng shēng qù chú , zhǔ yuán yīng mài rù dù jié hòu qī , sì hū bú huì zài yáo bù kě jí .
如今莫名的被钟声去除,主元婴迈入渡劫后期,似乎不会再遥不可及.
A beautiful young woman stood ten feet away, bowing gracefully: "Greetings, senior. My name is Qing'er and I will guide you to the Peach Blossom Festival venue. Are you ready? We can proceed now."
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ , lín xuān zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī xiào yì , zhēn shì tà pò tiě xié wú mì chù , dé lái quán bù fèi gōng fu , pán táo huì shàng wèi kāi mù , zì jǐ què yì wài dé dào le zhè yàng de hǎo chù , zhè shì fǒu yù shì zhe , zì jǐ zhè cì zài pán táo huì shàng , huì dà yǒu shōu huò .
想到这里,林轩嘴角边露出一丝笑意,真是踏破铁鞋无觅处,得来全不费工夫,蟠桃会尚未开幕,自己却意外得到了这样的好处,这是否预示着,自己这次在蟠桃会上,会大有收获.
"Of course."
xīn qíng biàn dé hěn bú cuò , lín xuān qǐ shēn xiàng dòng fǔ wài zǒu qù le , xiān yǔ yuè ér xiǎo dié huì hé , liǎng nǚ yě shì yī fù róng guāng huàn fā de shén sè , wèn hǎo zhī hòu , fēn bié huí dào le xū yú dòng tiān tú .
心情变得很不错,林轩起身像洞府外走去了,先与月儿小蝶汇合,两女也是一副容光焕发的神色,问好之后,分别回到了须臾洞天图.
Lin Xuan smiled.
suí hòu lín xuān hún shēn qīng máng dà zuò , jiāng xū kōng pò kāi , lí kāi zhè bù mǎn shén mì jìn zhì de dòng fǔ .
随后林轩浑身青芒大做,将虚空破开,离开这布满神秘禁制的洞府.
Qing'er bowed again as she waved her hand, emitting golden light. A small but elegant spirit boat appeared before them.
yǎn qián de jǐng wù yī zhèn mó hú , suí hòu nà jù dà de shān fēng chóng xīn zài yǎn lián zhōng fú xiàn ér chū .
眼前的景物一阵模糊,随后那巨大的山峰重新在眼帘中浮现而出.
Though not large, it was well-decorated, crafted by a master. It was an excellent flying artifact.
shí zhàng zhī wài hái zhàn zhe yī wèi měi mào shào nǚ , chōng zhe lín xuān yíng yíng yī fú :" gěi qián bèi jiàn lǐ , wǎn bèi míng jiào qíng ér , shì fù zé lái dài nín qù pán táo huì de huì chǎng de , bù zhī dào nín shì fǒu yǐ jīng zhǔn bèi wěn tuǒ , xiàn zài kě yǐ chū xiàn le me ?"
十丈之外还站着一位美貌少女,冲着林轩盈盈一拂:"给前辈见礼,晚辈名叫晴儿,是负责来带您去蟠桃会的会场的,不知道您是否已经准备稳妥,现在可以出现了么?"
Lin Xuan stepped onto the boat and Qing'er cast a spell at it.
" dāng rán kě yǐ ."
"当然可以."
Instantly, the craft was enveloped in a glow, cutting through clouds as they ascended towards the peak.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī xiào yì .
林轩脸上露出一丝笑意.
Along the way, hidden pavilions and terraces could be seen, with waterfalls and streams providing soothing sounds. The scenery was like an earthly paradise.
cǐ nǚ tīng le , zài cì liǎn rèn yī lǐ , suí hòu yù shǒu yī fú , jīn guāng dà zuò , què shì yī zhàng xǔ zhǎng de líng zhōu fú xiàn ér chū .
此女听了,再次敛衽一礼,随后玉手一拂,金光大做,却是一丈许长的灵舟浮现而出.
In the misty air, various spirit boats zipped by, too numerous to describe.
cǐ líng zhōu suī rán bù dà , què bù zhì dé jīng qiǎo diǎn yǎ , kàn dé chū , shì chū zì míng jiā de shǒu bǐ , fēi cháng bù cuò de fēi xíng fǎ qì .
此灵舟虽然不大,却布置得精巧典雅,看得出,是出自名家的手笔,非常不错的飞行法器.
Clearly, these were all participants in the Peach Blossom Festival.
lín xuān shēn xíng yī shǎn , zhàn le shàng qù .
林轩身形一闪,站了上去.
The spirit boat sped quickly but took nearly half an hour to reach the summit.
suí hòu biàn jiàn nà míng jiào qíng ér de shào nǚ yī dào fǎ jué chōng zhe líng zhōu dǎ chū .
随后便见那名叫晴儿的少女一道法诀冲着灵舟打出.
This mountain must have been incredibly steep and tall.
dùn shí , cǐ fǎ qì bèi yī tuán guāng yùn bāo guǒ , chuān guò zhòng zhòng yún wù , xiàng zhe shān dǐng fēi shàng qù le .
顿时,此法器被一团光晕包裹,穿过重重云雾,向着山顶飞上去了.
"Top of the mountain," Qing'er said, though it was actually a vast area.
yī lù shàng , yǐn jiàn tíng tái lóu gé , bù shí gèng yǒu chán chán de shuǐ shēng jìn rù ěr duǒ , xiǎo qiáo liú shuǐ pù bù , bù yī ér zú ……
一路上,隐见亭台楼阁,不时更有潺潺的水声进入耳朵,小桥流水瀑布,不一而足……
A magnificent palace floated above them, drawing attention.
jǐng wù suī rán kàn bù qīng chǔ , dàn yòng rén jiān xiān jìng lái xíng róng yì diǎn yě méi yǒu cuò .
景物虽然看不清楚,但用人间仙境来形容一点也没有错.
Ignoring any rest, the spirit boat flew directly towards the palace's entrance.
ér yīn yūn de wù qì lǐ , bù shí hái kě yǐ kàn jiàn líng guāng shǎn guò , gè shì gè yàng de líng zhōu fēi chē , nán yǐ yòng yán yǔ shuō dé qīng chǔ .
而氤氲的雾气里,不时还可以看见灵光闪过,各式各样的灵舟飞车,难以用言语说得清楚.
Entering swiftly.
xiǎn rán , lǐ miàn zuò zhe de , dōu shì lái cān jiā pán táo huì de lǎo guài wù .
显然,里面坐着的,都是来参加蟠桃会的老怪物.
Inside, the decor appeared rugged and ancient, unlike modern architecture, reminiscent of primordial times.
líng zhōu dùn guāng xùn sù , kě zú zú huā le xiǎo bàn gè shí chén de gōng fu cái lái dào shān dǐng .
灵舟遁光迅速,可足足花了小半个时辰的功夫才来到山顶.
Patrolling cultivators in heavy armor were everywhere. These warriors' aura reached late-stage Divination Realm, posing no threat to Lin Xuan, yet he felt an inexplicable unease.
kě xiǎng ér zhī , cǐ shān xiǎn jùn gāo dà dào hé děng chéng dù .
可想而知,此山险峻高大到何等程度.
A sense of danger.
ér shuō shì shān dǐng , miàn .[,！] jī qí shí jí wéi guǎng kuò .
而说是山顶,面.[,！]积其实极为广阔.
Lin Xuan's brows furrowed slightly.
yī zuò jīn bì huī huáng de gōng diàn zài tóu dǐng piāo fú , yǐn rén cè mù .
一座金碧辉煌的宫殿在头顶漂浮,引人侧目.
"Senior, have you heard of the Shadow Guards?" Qing'er asked with a smile.
nà líng zhōu sī háo yě méi yǒu tíng xiē de yì tú , zhí jiē cháo zhe gōng diàn de dà mén fēi guò qù le .
那灵舟丝毫也没有停歇的意图,直接朝着宫殿的大门飞过去了.
"Aren't they different from ordinary soldiers in your alliance?"
yī shǎn jí rù .
一闪即入.
"Yes. The Shadow Guards are selected and specially cultivated cultivators. Each is formidable, and their unique cultivation methods can help them break through barriers temporarily to enter Transcending Tribulation stage."
lǐ miàn de bù zhì , xiǎn de cū guǎng gǔ piáo , yǔ xiàn zài de jiàn zhù shì yàng dà bù xiāng tóng , fǎng fú shì chuán chéng zì hóng huāng yī yàng .
里面的布置,显得粗犷古朴,与现在的建筑式样大不相同,仿佛是传承自洪荒一样.
Lin Xuan's composure was unshaken by the news, but he couldn't hide his surprise at this revelation.
ér zài dà diàn zhī zhōng , suí chù kě jiàn pī jiān zhí ruì de xiū shì xún luó .
而在大殿之中,随处可见披坚执锐的修士巡逻.
It was known that many secret arts in the cultivation world could temporarily unlock potential, but for a late-stage Divination Realm cultivator to break through the Transcending Tribulation barrier was too shocking.
Strong contenders gathered here, making this the highlight of the Peach Blossom Festival, but also harboring potential dangers.
Indeed, a mix of hope and worry!
As people anticipated various treasures, they also feared losing their competitive edge.
With the three realms' strongest warriors converging on Penglai, even if heart-stirring treasures did appear, how could one be certain of securing them?
Self-reflection revealed that such certainty was non-existent.
Anxiety and anticipation!
Despite this anxious state, time continued to pass.
Finally, the Peach Blossom Festival commenced.
With great attention, countless old monsters at the Transcending Tribulation stage eagerly awaited the grand event's opening.
On that day, as dawn broke, an ancient bell sounded in their ears.
Serene, distant...
Though the bell's sound was vast and filled with primordial antiquity, it strangely calmed one's heart, washing away all烦恼and worries.
