yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì fù jìn de tiān dì fǎ zé wèi zhī gǎi biàn 。
与之伴随的是附近的天地法则为之改变。
Along with this, the laws of nature in the surrounding area began to change.
tóng shí yī tào xuàn mù yì cháng de zhàn jiǎ fú xiàn zài le nài lóng zhēn rén de shēn qián 。
同时一套炫目异常的战甲浮现在了鼐龙真人的身前。
A dazzling set of battle armor suddenly appeared before Daoist True Dragon Nai Long.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ！
林轩瞳孔微缩！
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted!
suí hòu biàn tīng jiàn lóng yín shēng dà zuò ， zhǐ jiàn nài lóng liǎn shàng zài wú fēn háo xī xiào zhī sè ， shuāng shǒu yī wò ， yī dào dào jīn càn càn de líng wén cóng tā shēn tǐ biǎo miàn yī yǒng ér chū ， shùn jiān biàn bù quán shēn gè chù 。
随后便听见龙吟声大做，只见鼐龙脸上再无分毫嬉笑之色，双手一握，一道道金灿灿的灵纹从他身体表面一涌而出，瞬间遍布全身各处。
Then, a dragon-like howl echoed as Nai Long's face lost all signs of amusement. He clenched his hands, and golden spiritual patterns burst forth from his body, instantly covering every part of him.
suí hòu nà zhàn jiǎ yǔ tā de shēn tǐ kāi shǐ róng hé 。
随后那战甲与他的身体开始融合。
The battle armor began to merge with his body. Multicolored spiritual light flowed over the surface, and a layer of flame-like glow ascended onto it.
wǔ sè líng máng liú zhuǎn ， nà zhàn jiǎ de biǎo miàn ， jū rán shēng téng qǐ le yī céng guāng yàn 。
五色灵芒流转，那战甲的表面，居然升腾起了一层光焰。
Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face.
cǐ mù luò zài yǎn lǐ ， lín xuān de liǎn shàng bù yóu de lù chū yī sī hài rán zhī yì 。
此幕落在眼里，林轩的脸上不由得露出一丝骇然之意。
How powerful was Big Brother Nai Long? To be honest, Lin Xuan wasn't entirely clear about that. But he had witnessed Nai Long's single sword defeating Heavenly璇 and Earth Jī, displaying formidable combat prowess that struck fear into one’s heart. At the time, Nai Long's actions were effortless, unlike now where he was fully focused, deploying his battle armor and domain without hesitation.
dà gē shí lì rú hé ， píng xīn lái shuō ， lín xuān bìng bù qīng chǔ ， dàn tā céng jiàn guò nài lóng yī jiàn dǎ bài tiān xuán dì jī ， suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de zhàn lì lìng rén wèi jù 。
大哥实力如何，平心来说，林轩并不清楚，但他曾见过鼐龙一剑打败天璇地玑，所表现出来的战力令人畏惧。
The danger they faced must have been incredibly grave.
ér nà shí hòu ， nài lóng de chū shǒu yě shì jǔ zhòng ruò qīng dì ， nǎ ér xiàng xiàn zài yì bān ， quán shén guàn zhù ， zhàn jiǎ ， lǐng yù ， dōu háo bù yóu yù de shī zhǎn chū 。
而那时候，鼐龙的出手也是举重若轻地，哪儿像现在一般，全神贯注，战甲，领域，都毫不犹豫的施展出。
Before this thought could fully form in Lin Xuan's mind, an unbelievable scene unfolded.
kě xiǎng ér zhī ， cǐ shí miàn duì de wēi xiǎn ， shì hé děng de fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
可想而知，此时面对的危险，是何等的非同小可。
The light beam that had illuminated the area suddenly became hazy and turned into thick black fog. Even Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes couldn't see through it, with powerful and abnormal法则 forces emanating from its surface. More bizarrely, these forces were different from those he had encountered before, more obscure and ancient. In an instant, they enveloped Nai Long Daoist.
zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， bù kě sī yì de yí mù jiù chū xiàn le ，
这个念头尚未转过，不可思议的一幕就出现了，
"Big Brother!"
zhǐ jiàn nà zhào shè guò lái de guāng zhù yī zhèn mó hú ， jū rán biàn chéng le hēi sè de nóng wù 。
只见那照射过来的光柱一阵模糊，居然变成了黑色的浓雾。
Lin Xuan's heart raced in alarm as he sensed something amiss. He flicked his sleeves, and sharp sword energy shot out from his fingertips, slicing through the fog. But it was like a stone hitting water; no effect at all.
nà wù qì lián tiān fèng shén mù dōu kàn bù qīng chǔ ， biǎo miàn yǒu qiáng liè yì cháng de fǎ zé zhī lì shì fàng ér chū 。
那雾气连天凤神目都看不清楚，表面有强烈异常的法则之力释放而出。
Lin Xuan's expression grew even more grim. His right hand raised, and Nine Palaces Momentary Sword directly emerged from his sleeve as if swimming in water. Lin Xuan's hands moved like butterflies, and dozens of immortal swords converged into one giant sword. Spiritual light shone brightly before they vanished, replaced by a massive sword that appeared.
gèng gǔ guài de shì zhè fǎ zé zhī lì yǔ zì jǐ guò wǎng jiē chù guò de bù tóng ， gèng jiā de huì sè gǔ piáo ， jī hū yí gè shùn jiān ， jiù jiāng nài lóng zhēn rén lǒng zhào zhù 。
更古怪的是这法则之力与自己过往接触过的不同，更加的晦涩古朴，几乎一个瞬间，就将鼐龙真人笼罩住。
A hundred feet long with electric sparks flashing across its surface.
“ dà gē ！”
“大哥！”
"Quickly!"
lín xuān xīn zhōng dà jí ， yǐn yǐn gǎn dào bù tuǒ ， xiù páo yī fú ， xī lì de jiàn qì zì tā de zhǐ jiān bèng shè ér chū 。
林轩心中大急，隐隐感到不妥，袖袍一拂，犀利的剑气自他的指尖迸射而出。
With Lin Xuan's current strength, the giant sword technique he wielded was formidable. Just as he prepared to command it forward, an unbelievable scene occurred.
zài xū kōng zhōng yī huà ér guò ， zhí cì rù nóng wù ， què rú tóng ní niú rù hǎi ， fēn háo xiào guǒ bú jiàn 。
在虚空中一划而过，直刺入浓雾，却如同泥牛入海，分毫效果不见。
The eerie black fog disappeared instantly.
lín xuān de liǎn sè yuè fā nàn kàn ， yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， zhè yī cì ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn zhí jiē cóng yī xiù zhōng yú yóu le chū lái 。
林轩的脸色越发难看，右手抬起，这一次，九宫须臾剑直接从衣袖中鱼游了出来。
Yes, it dissipated in just a moment, seemingly merging into the air.
lín xuān shuāng shǒu rú chuán huā hú dié yì bān fēi wǔ 。 suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， shù shí bǐng xiān jiàn wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， líng guāng dà zuò ， quán dōu xiāo shī bú jiàn le 。 qǔ ér dài zhī de shì yī bǐng jù dà de xiān jiàn fú xiàn ér chū 。
林轩双手如传花蝴蝶一般飞舞。随着他的动作，数十柄仙剑往中间一合，灵光大做，全都消失不见了。取而代之的是一柄巨大的仙剑浮现而出。
This was accompanied by a sky filled with lightning and fire. The surrounding dark mist also vanished, leaving everything calm and serene. It felt like all that had happened was just a dream.
zhǎng bǎi zhàng yǒu yú ， biǎo miàn diàn máng shǎn shuò bù yǐ 。
长百丈有余，表面电芒闪烁不已。
Too fantastical, too bizarre. If not for Nai Long Daoist's disappearance as well, Lin Xuan almost thought he was dreaming.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
He had faced countless hardships on his path to cultivation, but such an absurd scene was unprecedented.
yǐ lín xuān rú jīn de shí lì ， shī zhǎn chū de jù jiàn shù zì rán shì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， zhèng yào cāo zòng tā xiàng qián zhǎn chū ， rán ér jiù zài cǐ kè ， què fā shēng le bù kě sī yì de yí mù 。
以林轩如今的实力，施展出的巨剑术自然是非同小可，正要操纵它向前斩出，然而就在此刻，却发生了不可思议的一幕。
Nai Long, this living person, had vanished!
nà guǐ yì de hēi wù xiāo shī diào le 。
那诡异的黑雾消失掉了。
Knowing that Big Brother wasn't a weakling but one of the top three in the Three Realms, how could it be possible?
méi cuò ， jǐn jǐn yī shùn jiān jiù sàn kāi ， fǎng fú shì róng rù le kōng qì lǐ miàn 。
没错，仅仅一瞬间就散开，仿佛是融入了空气里面。
Was it the Golden Jade Corpse King's doing?
yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì màn tiān de léi huǒ ， mí màn yú sì zhōu de yīn wù yě tóng yàng zōng jì quán wú ， yún dàn fēng qīng 。 fǎng fú gāng cái suǒ yǒu de yī qiè dōu zhǐ shì mèng jìng 。
与之伴随的是漫天的雷火，弥漫于四周的阴雾也同样踪迹全无，云淡风轻。仿佛刚才所有的一切都只是梦境。
Lin Xuan extended his divine sense and found no trace related to the powerful阴司 realm expert. He too had disappeared.
tài guò xū huàn ， tài guò lí pǔ ， ruò bú shì nài lóng zhēn rén tóng yàng xiāo shī diào le ， lín xuān jī hū dōu yào yǐ wéi zì jǐ shì zài zuò mèng 。
太过虚幻，太过离谱，若不是鼐龙真人同样消失掉了，林轩几乎都要以为自己是在做梦。
Lin Xuan's expression darkened. At this moment, a sigh reached his ears: "Third Brother, you needn't search; it would be in vain."
tā zì cóng tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù ， jīng lì guò de jiān nán xiǎn zǔ shǔ bù shèng shǔ 。 dàn xiàng yǎn qián zhè yàng huāng miù de yí mù ， què shì cóng suǒ wèi yù de 。
他自从踏上修仙之路，经历过的艰难险阻数不胜数。但像眼前这样荒谬的一幕，却是从所未遇的。
"Second Sister, do you know where Big Brother went?"
nài lóng ， zhè me yí gè dà huó rén ， jū rán píng kōng xiāo shī diào le ！
鼐龙，这么一个大活人，居然凭空消失掉了！
Lin Xuan turned and saw that Fairy Hundred Flowers' face was filled with worry.
yào zhī dào zì jǐ zhè wèi dà gē ， kě bú shì shén me ruò zhě ， ér shì huò zhēn jià shí sān jiè zuì dǐng jí de rén wù 。
要知道自己这位大哥，可不是什么弱者，而是货真价实三界最顶级的人物。
"Yes, what Big Brother encountered just now was Yellow Springs Ghost Fog. He should have been sucked into the Holy Land of the Netherworld," said Fairy Hundred Flowers as she sighed.
zěn me kě néng ne ？
怎么可能呢？
"Yellow Springs Ghost Fog, Holy Land of the Netherworld—what are they?"
nán dào shì jīn yuè shī wáng gǎo de guǐ me ？
难道是金玥尸王搞的鬼么？
Lin Xuan was stunned: "Moon, do you know?"
lín xuān jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， guǒ rán zài yě zhǎo bú dào fēn háo yǔ zhè wèi yīn sī jiè qiáng zhě yǒu guān de xiàn suǒ 。 tā tóng yàng píng kōng xiāo shī diào le 。
林轩将神识放出，果然再也找不到分毫与这位阴司界强者有关的线索。他同样凭空消失掉了。
He used his divine sense to communicate with his beloved wife.
lín xuān de liǎn sè ， bù yóu de yīn mái xià lái ， ér jiù zài zhè shí ， yī tàn xī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ sān dì ， nǐ bù yòng zhǎo le ， nà shì bái fèi lì qì 。”
林轩的脸色，不由得阴霾下来，而就在这时，一叹息声传入耳朵：“三弟，你不用找了，那是白费力气。”
Before Moon could respond, Fairy Hundred Flowers' voice continued: "The so-called Holy Land of the Netherworld is unclear. It's said to be one of the gaps between阴司 realm and True Immortal Realm, where the阴气 is extremely dense but ordinary people can't enter."
“ èr jiě 。 nǐ zhī dào dà gē qù le nǎ lǐ ？”
“二姐。你知道大哥去了哪里？”
"What about Yellow Springs Ghost Fog?"
lín xuān huí guò tóu lú ， zhǐ jiàn bǎi huā xiān zi de liǎn shàng ， yì mǎn shì dān yōu zhī sè 。
林轩回过头颅，只见百花仙子的脸上，亦满是担忧之色。
"It’s a holy artifact from the 阴司 realm, extremely rare. Only through this treasure can one enter the Holy Land of the Netherworld."
“ bù cuò ， gāng cái dà gē suǒ zāo yù de ， shì huáng quán guǐ wù 。 cǐ kè yīng gāi shì bèi xī rù le yōu míng shèng dì zhī zhōng 。” bǎi huā tàn le kǒu qì 。
“不错，刚才大哥所遭遇的，是黄泉鬼雾。此刻应该是被吸入了幽冥圣地之中。”百花叹了口气。
Fairy Hundred Flowers' face darkened as she spoke: "The Golden Jade Corpse King really went all out this time. The Yellow Springs Ghost Fog is hard to find, even for him. He used it specifically against Nai Long Daoist, aiming for a fight to the death."
“ huáng quán guǐ wù ， yōu míng shèng dì ， nà shì shén me dōng xī ？”
“黄泉鬼雾，幽冥圣地，那是什么东西？”
Lin Xuan fell into silence upon hearing this.
lín xuān yī dāi ：“ yuè ér ， nǐ shì fǒu xiǎo de ？”
林轩一呆：“月儿，你是否晓得？”
If what Second Sister said was true, there should be no other ambushes in the Holy Land of the Netherworld. Big Brother and Golden Jade Corpse King would face each other one-on-one, likely determining who emerged victorious. The winner could leave.
lín xuān yòng shén shí yǔ ài qī gōu tōng qǐ lái le 。
林轩用神识与爱妻沟通起来了。
Big Brother's strength wasn't weak, but his opponent was one of the Six Kings of the 阴司 realm, setting such a deadly trap with great confidence.
rán ér zhè biān yuè ér shàng wèi huí yìng ， bǎi huā xiān zi de shēng yīn ， yǐ chuán rù le ěr lǐ ：“ suǒ wèi de yōu míng shèng dì ， wǒ yě bù qīng chǔ ， chuán shuō shì yīn sī jiè yǔ zhēn xiān jiè de jiā fèng zhī yī ， lǐ miàn de yīn qì nóng yù yǐ jí ， rán ér děng xián què nán yǐ jìn qù 。”
然而这边月儿尚未回应，百花仙子的声音，已传入了耳里：“所谓的幽冥圣地，我也不清楚，传说是阴司界与真仙界的夹缝之一，里面的阴气浓郁以极，然而等闲却难以进去。”
Moreover, the Holy Land of the Netherworld had extremely dense阴气, making it advantageous even without setting up an ambush.
“ nà huáng quán guǐ wù ne ？”
“那黄泉鬼雾呢？”
Big Brother is in danger.
“ nà shì yīn sī jiè de shèng wù ， jí wéi nán dé ， wéi yǒu tōng guò cǐ bǎo ， cái kě yǐ jìn rù yōu míng shèng dì zhī zhōng 。”
“那是阴司界的圣物，极为难得，唯有通过此宝，才可以进入幽冥圣地之中。”
After analyzing the situation, Lin Xuan made his calculations and concluded that he could do nothing to help. In this scenario, even if he wanted to assist, he couldn't.
bǎi huā xiān zi shuō dào zhè lǐ ， liǎn sè yì yīn mái yǐ jí ：“ jīn yuè shī wáng zhè cì ， hái zhēn shì xià le dà běn qián ， huáng quán guǐ wù nán dé ， biàn shì tā ， yě bù róng yì zhǎo dào cǐ wù ， zhuān mén yòng qí duì fù nài lóng zhēn rén ， shì xiǎng yào bù sǐ bù xiū 。”
百花仙子说到这里，脸色亦阴霾以极：“金玥尸王这次，还真是下了大本钱，黄泉鬼雾难得，便是他，也不容易找到此物，专门用其对付鼐龙真人，是想要不死不休。”
The Golden Jade Corpse King was cunning; using Yellow Springs Ghost Fog had two purposes: one, to take advantage of the terrain. The second… likely out of concern for Li Yutong, given how close they were to the瑶池.
lín xuān tīng dào zhè lǐ ， yì xiàn rù le chén mò 。
林轩听到这里，亦陷入了沉默。
A hundred miles away, with Li Yutong's strength, it would be an instant trip.
rú guǒ zhēn rú èr jiě suǒ shuō ， yōu míng shèng dì zhī zhōng ， yīng gāi bú huì yǒu qí tā mái fú ， dà gē yǔ jīn yuè shī wáng yī duì yī ， kǒng pà yào fēn chū yí gè shèng fù qiáng ruò ， huò shèng zhě ， cái néng cóng nà lǐ zǒu chū 。
如果真如二姐所说，幽冥圣地之中，应该不会有其他埋伏，大哥与金玥尸王一对一，恐怕要分出一个胜负强弱，获胜者，才能从那里走出。
But changing the battleground to the Holy Land of the Netherworld meant that even if Fairy Rainy Dream tried to intervene, she couldn't. And Lin Xuan himself was out of the question.
dà gē shí lì bù sú ， dàn duì fāng kě shì yīn sī liù wáng zhī yī ， ér qiě bù xià zhè yàng de sǐ jú ， bú yòng shuō ， duì zì jǐ kěn dìng shì yǒu jué dà xìn xīn dì 。
大哥实力不俗，但对方可是阴司六王之一，而且布下这样的死局，不用说，对自己肯定是有绝大信心地。
He could only pray for Nai Long Daoist's safety and good fortune.
ér qiě yōu míng shèng dì ， yīn qì nóng yù yǐ jí ， jí biàn bù néng bù xià mái fú ， duì yōu míng àn wáng lái shuō ， yě jí wéi yǒu lì 。
而且幽冥圣地，阴气浓郁以极，即便不能布下埋伏，对幽冥暗王来说，也极为有利。
Lin Xuan sighed in his heart and turned to look at Fairy Hundred Flowers: "Sister, there's nothing we can do now. We should leave quickly."
dà gē wēi xiǎn le 。
大哥危险了。
"Agreed."
lín xuān jīng guò yī fān tuī yǎn zhī hòu ， zài xīn zhōng zuò xià rú cǐ chuǎi mó ， rán ér tā què wú néng wéi lì 。
林轩经过一番推演之后，在心中做下如此揣摩，然而他却无能为力。
Fairy Hundred Flowers, though worried about Nai Long Daoist's safety, understood Lin Xuan's point and nodded in agreement.
zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng ， zì jǐ jí biàn xiǎng bāng máng ， dōu gēn běn bāng bù shàng 。
这种情况，自己即便想帮忙，都根本帮不上。
"We'll head out then."
jīn yuè shī wáng hǎo jiǎo huá ， zhī suǒ yǐ shǐ yòng huáng quán guǐ wù ， mù dì yǒu liǎng gè ， yī shì zhàn jù dì lì ， zhè dì èr diǎn me …… duō bàn hái shì gù jì lǐ yǔ tóng ， bì jìng zhè lǐ jù lí yáo chí bù yuǎn 。
金玥尸王好狡猾，之所以使用黄泉鬼雾，目的有两个，一是占据地利，这第二点么……多半还是顾忌李雨桐，毕竟这里距离瑶池不远。
"No, I plan to separate from Second Sister for the journey," said Lin Xuan.
bǎi wàn lǐ ， yǐ lǐ yǔ tóng de shí lì ， yě jiù shì shùn xī 。
百万里，以李雨桐的实力，也就是瞬息。
"What? Separate? Third Brother…?"
rán ér jiāng jué dòu de dì diǎn gǎi zài yōu míng shèng dì ， biàn shì yǔ tóng xiān zi yǐ wú kě nài hé ， gēn běn chā bù shàng shǒu de 。
然而将决斗的地点改在幽冥圣地，便是雨桐仙子以无可奈何，根本插不上手的。
Fairy Hundred Flowers was taken aback, and Dreamy Smile's face showed concern as well.
zì jǐ jiù gèng bù yòng xiǎng le 。
自己就更不用想了。
"Traveling together makes our target too obvious. Separating will be safer. Let’s go; we can't waste time. Sisters, take care on the road. I must leave now."
rú jīn zhǐ yǒu qí dǎo nài lóng zhēn rén jí rén zì yǒu tiān xiàng 。
如今只有祈祷鼐龙真人吉人自有天相。
Before Lin Xuan finished speaking, he emitted a green glow and flew forward with near-instantaneous speed, vanishing into the distance.
lín xuān xīn zhōng tàn xī ， zhuǎn tóu wàng xiàng bǎi huā xiān zi ：“ jiě ， shì yǐ zhì cǐ ， wǒ men dān xīn yì shì wú jì kě shī ， wèi jīn zhī jì ， hái shì kuài diǎn lí kāi zhè lǐ 。”
林轩心中叹息，转头望向百花仙子：“姐，事已至此，我们担心亦是无计可施，为今之计，还是快点离开这里。”
"Sister Third Brother…?"
“ bù cuò 。”
“不错。”
Fairy Hundred Flowers couldn't catch up, her expression filled with sighs.
bǎi huā xiān zi suī yě dān xīn nài lóng zhēn rén de ān wēi ， dàn yě míng bái lín xuān yán zhī yǒu lǐ ， diǎn tóu biǎo shì zàn tóng zhī yì 。
百花仙子虽也担心鼐龙真人的安危，但也明白林轩言之有理，点头表示赞同之意。
Lin Xuan's actions were deliberate. This time participating in the Peach Blossom Festival, because he had consecutively captured two of the final treasures, he had become a target. While Big Brother Nai Long could still protect him, Second Sister Fairy Hundred Flowers was also a domain expert but far less powerful than Nai Long.
“ nà wǒ men zhè jiù chū fā 。”
“那我们这就出发。”
(Youth Lion Alliance.)
Along with this, the laws of nature in the surrounding area began to change.
A dazzling set of battle armor suddenly appeared before Daoist True Dragon Nai Long.
Domain!
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted!
Then, a dragon-like howl echoed as Nai Long's face lost all signs of amusement. He clenched his hands, and golden spiritual patterns burst forth from his body, instantly covering every part of him.
The battle armor began to merge with his body. Multicolored spiritual light flowed over the surface, and a layer of flame-like glow ascended onto it.
