shuāng shǔ xìng gǔ bǎo , píng xīn lái shuō , nà què shí shì jià zhí lián chéng zhī wù , rán ér fàng zài cǐ chù , jiù méi yǒu shén me zhí de xī qí de le .
双属性古宝,平心来说,那确实是价值连城之物,然而放在此处,就没有什么值得稀奇的了.
A dual-attribute ancient treasure—quite literally worth a city's worth of treasures. However, placed here, it holds no special significance.
dù jié qī xiū xiān zhě , jiàn shí guǎng bó , shén me yàng de fǎ bǎo bù céng jiàn guò , qū qū shuāng shǔ xìng gǔ bǎo yòu suàn dé le shén me .
渡劫期修仙者,见识广博,什么样的法宝不曾见过,区区双属性古宝又算得了什么.
For cultivation experts at the Tribulation Transcending stage, they have seen countless artifacts; what could a mere dual-attribute ancient treasure amount to?
biǎo miàn shàng kàn , shì zhè yàng méi cuò , rán ér yǎn qián de tān wèi , lián shí wù dōu bù céng ná chū , zhè yàng de zuò fǎ , kě jiù zhí de shāng què .
表面上看,是这样没错,然而眼前的摊位,连实物都不曾拿出,这样的做法,可就值得商榷.
Indeed, from an outsider's perspective, this is true. But with the current stall not even showing its wares, such behavior warrants scrutiny.
xiǎn rán , zhè wèi tān zhǔ yōng yǒu de , bú huì shì shén me xún cháng bǎo wù , shèn zhì yǒu kě néng yǐn qǐ qí tā dù jié qī cún zài de jì yú zhēng duó .
显然,这位摊主拥有的,不会是什么寻常宝物,甚至有可能引起其他渡劫期存在的觊觎争夺.
Clearly, the owner of this stall possesses no ordinary treasures and might even attract envy or contention from other Tribulation Transcending entities.
suǒ yǐ , tā cái yòng zhǐ tiáo zhè me hán hú qí cí de yī shuō .
所以,他才用纸条这么含糊其辞的一说.
Thus, he uses vague statements on paper to avoid drawing attention.
ruò shuí zhēn yǒu xìng qù , dà kě yǐ zài sī xià yǔ tā jiē qià shāng zhuó .
若谁真有兴趣,大可以在私下与他接洽商酌.
If anyone has genuine interest, they can negotiate privately with him.
lín xuān dāng rán bù quē bǎo wù , suǒ yǐ yě jiù méi yǒu xīn qíng zài zhè xiǎo tān shàng duō zuò liú lián shén me .
林轩当然不缺宝物,所以也就没有心情在这小摊上多做流连什么.
Lin Xuan certainly wasn't short of treasures; hence, he had no intention of lingering at this small stall any longer.
suī shuō zhōng chǎng xiū xī , dàn xiǎng lái shí jiān yě shì yǒu xiàn dì , zhuā jǐn xún zhǎo zì jǐ xiǎng yào de dōng xī .
虽说中场休息,但想来时间也是有限地,抓紧寻找自己想要的东西.
Though it was halftime, time was limited. He needed to quickly find what he sought.
jiù zhè yàng , lín xuān rú tóng dì yī cì cān jiā jiāo yì huì de xiū xiān zhě , zài gè gè xiǎo tān jiān chuān suō , shí guāng yǒu yī zhǒng cuò luàn de gǎn jué .
就这样,林轩如同第一次参加交易会的修仙者,在各个小摊间穿梭,时光有一种错乱的感觉.
Thus, Lin Xuan moved through the stalls like a novice participant in an auction, and time seemed to warp around him.
zhè zhǒng shì qíng , yǐ jīng duō jiǔ bù céng jīng lì guò .
这种事情,已经多久不曾经历过.
How long had it been since such experiences?
ér qí tā lǎo guài wù de gǎn shòu , xiǎng bì yě yǔ zì jǐ xiāng chà fǎng fú .
而其他老怪物的感受,想必也与自己相差仿佛.
The old monsters likely felt similarly.
yī huǎng yǎn , yǐ guò qù le bàn gè shí chén zuǒ yòu de gōng fu .
一晃眼,已过去了半个时辰左右的功夫.
Half an hour passed.
hái bié shuō , hù tōng yǒu wú , lín xuān zhēn shōu huò le bù shǎo duì tā dà yǒu yòng chǔ de bǎo wù .
还别说,互通有无,林轩真收获了不少对他大有用处的宝物.
Indeed, exchanging goods proved fruitful for Lin Xuan. He gained numerous treasures of great use to him.
dān yào cái liào bù yī ér zú .
丹药材料不一而足.
There were various medicinal materials and pills.
yào zhī dào , lín xuān rú jīn de shí lì yǐ hěn lí pǔ , huàn yí gè dì diǎn , jué nán shōu huò dào zhè me duō duì tā yǒu yòng de bǎo wù .
要知道,林轩如今的实力已很离谱,换一个地点,绝难收获到这么多对他有用的宝物.
Given his current strength, he would find it hard to obtain so many useful items in another place.
mǎn zài ér guī .
满载而归.
Returning home fully laden with treasures, Lin Xuan should have been elated.
yú qíng yú lǐ , lín xuān dōu yīng gāi dà wèi huān xǐ .
于情于理,林轩都应该大为欢喜.
However, his expression remained gloomy.
shì shí shàng , lín xuān de biǎo qíng què yī jiù shì chóu méi bù zhǎn dì .
事实上,林轩的表情却依旧是愁眉不展地.
Not because he was greedy; these treasures had their uses. But his purpose for this trip still hadn't been fulfilled.
bìng fēi tā tān duō .
并非他贪多.
The cultivation technique for the second yuan婴 and the treasure to help Xiao Die enhance her time power.
ér shì zhè xiē bǎo wù duì tā suī yǒu yòng tú . dàn cǐ xíng de mù dì , què yī jiù méi yǒu zhuó luò .
而是这些宝物对他虽有用途.但此行的目的,却依旧没有着落.
If there were no gains at the Peach Blossom Banquet, searching elsewhere would be like fishing in a desert.
dì èr yuán yīng xiū liàn de gōng fǎ , hái yǒu dā yìng xiǎo dié bāng tā tū pò shí jiān zhī lì de bǎo wù .
第二元婴修炼的功法,还有答应小蝶帮她突破时间之力的宝物.
Damn it!
ruò pán táo huì shàng dōu wú suǒ de , nà qù qí tā dì fāng xún zhǎo . jiù gèng rú tóng dà hǎi lāo zhēn yī yàng le .
若蟠桃会上都无所得,那去其他地方寻找.就更如同大海捞针一样了.
Lin Xuan couldn’t feign calmness; he was indeed anxious. But what use did anxiety serve? Only hoping for good luck.
kě wù ！
可恶！
He hastened his steps and expanded his divine sense to gather any clues, no matter how insignificant.
lín xuān yào shuō xīn lǐ bù zháo jí , nà kěn dìng shì piàn rén de .
林轩要说心里不着急,那肯定是骗人的.
Indeed, hard work paid off. Lin Xuan had a breakthrough.
dàn zháo jí yòu yǒu shén me yòng tú , zhǐ néng xī wàng yùn qì bù cuò .
但着急又有什么用途,只能希望运气不错.
He stopped at a corner stall.
lín xuān jiā kuài le jiǎo bù .
林轩加快了脚步.
This stall wasn't particularly eye-catching; the vendor was an ancient demon.
tóng shí yě kuò dà le shén shí sōu jí de xiàn suǒ , rèn hé yì diǎn zhū sī mǎ jì dōu bù fàng guò .
同时也扩大了神识搜集的线索,任何一点蛛丝马迹都不放过.
More accurately, it was an Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor.
hái bié shuō , gōng fu bù fù yǒu xīn rén , zhēn bèi lín xuān yǒu le shōu huò .
还别说,功夫不负有心人,真被林轩有了收获.
Of course, with his current strength, he didn’t care.
tā zài yí gè jiǎo luò de tān diǎn tíng xià le jiǎo bù .
他在一个角落的摊点停下了脚步.
But this ancient demon was different from those he had encountered before. At first glance, he appeared to be a short and plump old man with a pleasant demeanor.
zhè tān wèi bìng bù qǐ yǎn , tān zhǔ zé shì yī míng gǔ mó .
这摊位并不起眼,摊主则是一名古魔.
His appearance left Lin Xuan speechless because the disguise technique he used had created an identical image.
zhèng què de shuō , shì gǔ mó shèng zǔ .
正确的说,是古魔圣祖.
At first glance, both their builds were similar, and they even shared some facial features.
dāng rán , yǐ lín xuān rú jīn de shí lì . wán quán bù zài hū .
当然,以林轩如今的实力.完全不在乎.
If not for the different aura they emitted, people might mistake them for brothers.
ér zhè míng gǔ mó , yǔ zì jǐ yǐ qián jiē chù guò de yě shì dà yǒu bù tóng zhī chù .
而这名古魔,与自己以前接触过的也是大有不同之处.
Lin Xuan was genuinely speechless. Such coincidences!
zhà yī kàn , jū rán shì yī míng ǎi pàng lǎo zhě .
乍一看,居然是一名矮胖老者.
But his attention soon shifted to the items on this ancient demon's stall.
yī liǎn de hé yán yuè sè .
一脸的和颜悦色.
There were many medicinal treasures, but more surprisingly, there were numerous ancient books.
tā de xíng xiàng , ràng lín xuān yǒu xiē wú yǔ , yīn wèi lín xuān cǐ kè shǐ yòng de yì róng huàn xíng zhī shù , biàn huà chū lái de xíng xiàng , yě shì rú cǐ de .
他的形象,让林轩有些无语,因为林轩此刻使用的易容换形之术,变化出来的形象,也是如此的.
No, not jade eyes; these were books made from beast skin.
zhà yī kàn , liǎng rén bù jǐn shēn cái xiāng chà fǎng fú , lián róng mào yě pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù .
乍一看,两人不仅身材相差仿佛,连容貌也颇有几分相似之处.
Such things were almost unseen now.
ruò fēi liǎng rén sàn fà chū lái de qì xī bù tóng , jiù suàn shuō shì xiōng dì . kǒng pà yě huì yǒu rén xiāng xìn de .
若非两人散发出来的气息不同,就算说是兄弟.恐怕也会有人相信的.
Only in extremely ancient times, before even jade eyes were invented, did cultivators use such beast-skin books for recording purposes.
lín xuān zhe shí yǒu xiē wú yǔ .
林轩着实有些无语.
Due to the intricate craftsmanship, their contents often held great value—such as cultivation techniques and secret arts passed down through generations.
jū rán hái yǒu zhè yàng de qiǎo hé .
居然还有这样的巧合.
"Welcome, esteemed friend. My stall is a treasure trove; I wonder what treasures you need. Your bones are clear, so perhaps you will be the next one to ascend in this world. Let me give you an 80% discount…"
dàn hěn kuài , tā de zhù yì lì jiù bèi ǎi pàng mó zú tān wèi shàng de dōng xī xī yǐn guò qù le .
但很快,他的注意力就被矮胖魔族摊位上的东西吸引过去了.
The plump demon's enthusiastic introduction left Lin Xuan speechless.
yě yǒu bù shǎo dān yào bǎo wù , dàn gèng duō de jū rán shì yī xiē gǔ shū .
也有不少丹药宝物,但更多的居然是一些古书.
He looked like nothing more than a mercantile merchant, not an Ancient Demon Saint Ancestor at all.
méi cuò , bú shì yù tóng , ér shì yòng yāo shòu pí máo liàn huà zhì zuò chū lái de shū jí .
没错,不是玉瞳,而是用妖兽皮毛炼化制作出来的书籍.
Was there such an ancient demon?
rú jīn jī hū yǐ jīng jiàn bú dào zhè yàng de dōng xī .
如今几乎已经见不到这样的东西.
But Lin Xuan quickly regained his composure.
zhǐ yǒu zài jí yuǎn gǔ de shí hòu , shèn zhì hái méi yǒu fā míng chū yù tóng , xiū shì cái yòng zhè zhǒng shòu pí shū , lái zuò wèi jì shì zhī wù .
只有在极远古的时候,甚至还没有发明出玉瞳,修士才用这种兽皮书,来做为记事之物.
Regardless of the vendor’s personality, finding what he needed was crucial.
yóu yú zhì zuò gōng yì fán suǒ , qí suǒ jì zǎi . dà duō yě shì jià zhí bù fēi zhī wù .
由于制作工艺繁琐,其所记载.大多也是价值不菲之物.
"Does your stall have any demonic cultivation techniques suitable for late-stage Tribulation Transcenders?"
bǐ rú shuō . gōng fǎ , hái yǒu yī xiē chuán chéng de mì shù .
比如说.功法,还有一些传承的秘术.
"You are a spirit realm cultivator seeking demonic techniques, right?"
" huān yíng dào yǒu guāng lín . wǒ zhè xiǎo tān , kě shì bāo luó wàn xiàng de , bù zhī dào dào yǒu xū yào shén me bǎo wù . wǒ kàn nǐ gǔ gé qīng qí , shuō bù dìng sān jiè zhī zhōng , xià yí gè jǔ xiá fēi shēng de jiù shì nǐ , zhè yàng ba , wǒ gěi nǐ dǎ gè bā zhé ……"
"欢迎道友光临.我这小摊,可是包罗万象的,不知道道友需要什么宝物.我看你骨骼清奇,说不定三界之中,下一个举霞飞升的就是你,这样吧,我给你打个八折……"
"I am indeed from the spirit realm. But I'm willing to purchase demonic techniques; let's see money and goods exchanged."
ǎi pàng mó zú rè qíng de jiè shào shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ , lín xuān tīng dé shì chēng mù jié shé .
矮胖魔族热情的介绍声传入耳朵,林轩听得是瞠目结舌.
Lin Xuan spoke with some displeasure.
zhè jiā huo kàn shàng qù , nǎ lǐ xiàng shì shén me gǔ mó shèng zǔ , jiù yǔ yī shì kuài de shāng rén xiāng chà fǎng fú .
这家伙看上去,哪里像是什么古魔圣祖,就与一市侩的商人相差仿佛.
"Ha ha, don't be angry, friend. I asked multiple times because you want demonic techniques, of course, that’s no problem. However, such a technique is extremely valuable as it can even be practiced by late-stage Tribulation Transcenders. This stall doesn’t have any; you needn’t search further. How about we discuss this over there?"
jū rán hái yǒu zhè zhǒng gǔ mó ?
居然还有这种古魔?
"Fine."
dàn lín xuān yě jǐn jǐn shì yī shùn jiān de cuò è , hěn kuài jiù huī fù píng dàn de biǎo qíng le .
但林轩也仅仅是一瞬间的错愕,很快就恢复平淡的表情了.
Lin Xuan had no objections.
guǎn duì fāng xìng gé rú hé , guān jiàn shì xún zhǎo dào zì jǐ xū yào de bǎo wù , zhè yì diǎn , cái shì zuì zhòng yào de .
管对方性格如何,关键是寻找到自己需要的宝物,这一点,才是最重要的.
Thus, the two walked past each other.
yú shì lín xuān bú kè qì de jiāng tā de huà dǎ duàn de :" shì hé dù jié hòu qī de mó zú gōng fǎ , dào yǒu zhè ér yǒu me ?"
于是林轩不客气的将他的话打断的:"适合渡劫后期的魔族功法,道友这儿有么?"
In front of the treehouse, a platform was set up with an elegant magical disk.
" mó zú gōng fǎ , dào yǒu yīng gāi shì líng jiè xiū shì bà ！"
"魔族功法,道友应该是灵界修士罢！"
The plump demon tossed a small bag of crystal stones onto it.
" zài xià shì líng jiè xiū shì méi cuò , dàn yuàn yì gòu mǎi mó zú gōng fǎ , yī shǒu jiāo qián yī shǒu jiāo huò , mò fēi dào yǒu hái yào wèn wǒ ná dào nà gōng fǎ zhī hòu de yòng tú ?"
"在下是灵界修士没错,但愿意购买魔族功法,一手交钱一手交货,莫非道友还要问我拿到那功法之后的用途?"
The disk lit up, and all the crystals vanished. In their place appeared a token.
lín xuān yǒu xiē bú yuè de kāi kǒu le .
林轩有些不悦的开口了.
He took it out and cast a spell.
" hē hē , dào yǒu xī nù , shì zài xià duō cì yī wèn le , xiǎng yào mó zú de gōng fǎ , dāng rán méi yǒu wèn tí , dàn lián dù jié hòu qī xiū shì , dōu kě yǐ xiū liàn , zhè yàng de gōng fǎ , kě shì fēi cháng bǎo guì le , zhè xiǎo tān shàng kěn dìng shì méi yǒu de , dào yǒu yě bù yòng fèi xīn xún zhǎo le , bù rú wǒ men qù nà yī páng xì tán rú hé ?"
"呵呵,道友息怒,是在下多次一问了,想要魔族的功法,当然没有问题,但连渡劫后期修士,都可以修炼,这样的功法,可是非常宝贵了,这小摊上肯定是没有的,道友也不用费心寻找了,不如我们去那一旁细谈如何?"
A beam of light shot from the token, breaking through the禁制of the treehouse. Lin Xuan entered with him.
" hǎo ."
"好."
The exterior of the treehouse was small, but inside, there was ample space. A table and two wooden chairs stood there, along with various fine wines and fruits—clearly prepared by Rain Mist Business Alliance for use.
lín xuān dāng rán sī háo yì yì yě wú .
林轩当然丝毫异议也无.
Lin Xuan had no appetite now.
yú shì liǎng rén qián jiǎo gēn hòu jiǎo de zǒu guò qù le .
于是两人前脚跟后脚的走过去了.
"Can you show me the cultivation technique I need?"
zài shù wū de .[,！] qián miàn , yǒu yí gè píng tái , bù zhì chéng le jīng měi de fǎ pán .
在树屋的.[,！]前面,有一个平台,布置成了精美的法盘.
"Certainly."
nà mó zú lǎo zhě jiāng yī xiǎo dài jīng shí diū zài shàng miàn .
那魔族老者将一小袋晶石丢在上面.
The plump demon didn’t hesitate.
fǎ pán liàng le qǐ lái , suǒ yǒu de jīng shí xiāo shī bú jiàn , qǔ ér dài zhī de shì yī kuài lìng pái chū xiàn zài shàng miàn .
法盘亮了起来,所有的晶石消失不见,取而代之的是一块令牌出现在上面.
He waved his sleeves, and a flash of light revealed an ancient book amidst demonic energy.
tā shēn shǒu qǔ guò .
他伸手取过.
True Demon Technique!
suí hòu yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū .
随后一道法诀打出.
Several large characters were obscure and archaic, but Lin Xuan recognized them.
nà lìng pái fā chū yī dào guāng shù , qián miàn shù wū de jìn zhì pò kāi , lín xuān yǔ tā zǒu le jìn lái .
那令牌发出一道光束,前面树屋的禁制破开,林轩与他走了进来.
Just that name was so mundane.
shù wū biǎo miàn bù dà , lǐ miàn què zì chéng kōng jiān .
树屋表面不大,里面却自成空间.
Lin Xuan couldn't help feeling speechless, but names weren’t important.
yǒu yī zhāng zhuō zi , liǎng zhāng mù yǐ , zhuō zi shàng , hái bǎi mǎn le měi jiǔ guā guǒ , xiǎn rán , zhè xiē dōu shì yǔ lán shāng méng shì xiān zhǔn bèi hǎo de , kě yǐ suí yì qǔ yòng .
有一张桌子,两张木椅,桌子上,还摆满了美酒瓜果,显然,这些都是雨岚商盟事先准备好的,可以随意取用.
What mattered was the power of this technique and whether it suited him.
lín xuān xiàn zài , dāng rán méi yǒu shén me xīn qíng chī hē .
林轩现在,当然没有什么心情吃喝.
The technique presented wasn’t complete, but with his keen eyesight, a glance would reveal its quality.
" zài xià yào de gōng fǎ , dào yǒu kě yǐ ná chū lái le ba ！"
"在下要的功法,道友可以拿出来了吧！"
Lin Xuan sank his divine sense into it. The first description was obscure and archaic yet profound. Though he couldn't understand it fully, he sensed that this technique was extraordinary and met his needs.
" dāng rán kě yǐ ."
"当然可以."
His heart leaped with joy; finally, he had found what he wanted. Just as he was about to ask for the price, something unexpected happened.
nà ǎi pàng mó zú yě bù tuī tuō .
那矮胖魔族也不推脱.
The scene before him blurred. Soon, Lin Xuan found himself in an open field. A crackling black lightning bolt streaked from the sky and struck him mercilessly.
A dual-attribute ancient treasure—quite literally worth a city's worth of treasures. However, placed here, it holds no special significance.
For cultivation experts at the Tribulation Transcending stage, they have seen countless artifacts; what could a mere dual-attribute ancient treasure amount to?
Indeed, from an outsider's perspective, this is true. But with the current stall not even showing its wares, such behavior warrants scrutiny.
