nà hēi jiǎ dà hàn wēng wēng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ , yǔ qì jū rán shì pǒ wèi chéng kěn de .
那黑甲大汉嗡嗡的声音传入耳朵,语气居然是颇为诚恳的.
The deep, buzzing voice of the armored giant reached his ears, and to his surprise, it was spoken with a rather sincere tone.
zhè bù xī qí , sú huà shuō shàng bīng fá móu , néng gòu bù zhàn ér qū rén zhī bīng cái shì zuì cōng míng de xuǎn zé , miàn duì sì míng tóng jiē qiáng zhě , néng gòu ràng tā men zhǔ dòng tóu xiáng dāng rán shì zuì hǎo bù guò .
这不稀奇,俗话说上兵伐谋,能够不战而屈人之兵才是最聪明的选择,面对四名同阶强者,能够让他们主动投降当然是最好不过.
This wasn't unusual. As an old saying went: "The best strategy is to attack the mind." It made sense that facing four same-level powerhouses, getting them to surrender voluntarily would be the smartest choice.
jí biàn dá bú dào yù qī , zhè yě shì hěn hǎo de fēn huà wǎ jiě zhī jì .
即便达不到预期,这也是很好的分化瓦解之计.
Even if their surrender didn’t meet expectations, this was still a good plan for division and disintegration.
bì jìng tā tí chū de tiáo jiàn hái shì hěn yòu rén dì .
毕竟他提出的条件还是很诱人地.
After all, his proposed terms were quite tempting. With an army pressing down on him, he was weaker while they were stronger. As a cultivator of the Transcending Tribulation stage, did these outsiders really have no regard for their lives? Just one or two hesitations would suffice to achieve his goal.
rú jīn dà jūn yā jìng , wǒ qiáng dí ruò , zuò wèi dù jié qī xiū xiān zhě , duì fāng jiù zhēn de háo bù xī mìng me , zhǐ yào yǒu yī liǎng gè dòng yáo , zì jǐ zhè fān huà , jiù suàn dá dào mù dì le .
如今大军压境,我强敌弱,做为渡劫期修仙者,对方就真的毫不惜命么,只要有一两个动摇,自己这番话,就算达到目的了.
As he spoke, he observed the expressions of the four human cultivators. The域外天魔were not only cruel but also masters of psychological warfare.
tā yī biān shuō , yī biān guān chá zhe sì míng rén lèi xiū shì de liǎn sè , yù wài tiān mó , bù jǐn cán rěn , tóng shí yì jí gōng xīn jì .
他一边说,一边观察着四名人类修士的脸色,域外天魔,不仅残忍,同时亦极攻心计.
Unfortunately, his hopes were dashed as none of them showed any signs of wavering.
kě xī tā shī wàng le , sì rén liǎn shàng yī sī dòng yáo yě wú .
可惜他失望了,四人脸上一丝动摇也无.
Perhaps, some might have been swayed by what he said, but as a veteran of countless trials and tribulations, it was impossible for their true thoughts to be revealed so easily.
huò xǔ , tīng le zhè fān huà , yě yǒu rén xīn zhōng qǐ le lián yī , dàn zuò wèi dù jié qī lǎo guài wù , nǎ yí gè bú shì lì jīng fēng yǔ wú shù , bù lùn xīn zhōng zěn me xiǎng de , zhēn shí xiǎng fǎ yòu nǎ ér nà me róng yì tòu lù ?
或许,听了这番话,也有人心中起了涟漪,但做为渡劫期老怪物,哪一个不是历经风雨无数,不论心中怎么想的,真实想法又哪儿那么容易透露?
Finally, the old man with white hair laughed: "You are also powerful cultivators. Why play such childish mind games?"
zuì hòu hái shì nà bái fà lǎo wēng xiào qǐ lái le :" jǐ wèi dào yǒu yì shì qiáng zhě , hé bì hái wán nà me xiǎo ér kē de gōng xīn zhī cè ?"
最后还是那白发老翁笑起来了:"几位道友亦是强者,何必还玩那么小儿科的攻心之策?"
"An elder of humanity, how could I possibly surrender to you, these foreign devils? If you want to conquer Quanye City, that's fine, but first, you'll have to cross my corpse."
" lǎo fū shēn wéi rén zú , miàn duì nǐ men zhè xiē yì yù tiān mó , zěn me kě néng yǒu tóu xiáng yī shuō , xiǎng yào zhàn lǐng quē yuè chéng yě wú bù kě , dàn shǒu xiān , yào xiān cóng wǒ de shī tǐ shàng kuà guò ."
"老夫身为人族,面对你们这些异域天魔,怎么可能有投降一说,想要占领阙月城也无不可,但首先,要先从我的尸体上跨过."
His words were resounding and passionate.
zhè fān huà zhì dì yǒu shēng , kāng kǎi jī áng .
这番话掷地有声,慷慨激昂.
The city’s cultivators were invigorated by his speech. The armored天魔, however, showed a flash of anger: "Foolish! Since you won’t accept our offer, I will extract your soul and refine it."
chéng zhōng xiū shì tīng le , bù wú jīng shén dà zhèn , ér nà hēi jiǎ tiān mó , liǎn shàng zé shǎn guò yī sī nù sè :" yú chǔn , nǐ jì jìng jiǔ bù chī chī fá jiǔ , nà běn zūn jiù jiāng nǐ chōu hún liàn pò ."
城中修士听了,不无精神大震,而那黑甲天魔,脸上则闪过一丝怒色:"愚蠢,你既敬酒不吃吃罚酒,那本尊就将你抽魂炼魄."
Before he could finish speaking, the giant let out a loud roar. Black mists swirled around him as his body rapidly expanded, growing to hundreds of feet tall.
huà yīn wèi luò , nà dà hàn yī shēng dà hē , tǐ biǎo wú shù hēi xiá fān gǔn yǒng dòng , shēn qū shùn jiān kuáng zhǎng , qǐng kè zhī jiān jìng rán biàn dà dào le shù bǎi zhàng zhǎng gāo .
话音未落,那大汉一声大喝,体表无数黑霞翻滚涌动,身躯瞬间狂涨,顷刻之间竟然变大到了数百丈长高.
He crouched down, and on his back, countless blood-red bone spines extended outward. With a series of whistling sounds, these bone spines shot forth like a shower of flowers, enveloping the four human elders in front of him.
jiù rú tóng jù rén yī yàng .
就如同巨人一样.
This guy was planning to face all four of them alone?
suí hòu tā bàn dūn zhe dī xià tou , zhǐ jiàn qí bèi shàng yǒu wú shù xuè hóng sè de gǔ cì yán zhǎn ér chū . bàn suí zhe chī chī de pò kōng shēng dà zuò , suǒ yǒu de gǔ cì rú bèi qiáng gōng yìng nǔ fā shè , rú màn tiān huā yǔ yì bān de qīng xiè ér chū , shùn jiān . jiù jiāng qián fāng de sì míng rén lèi lǎo zǔ bāo guǒ .
随后他半蹲着低下头,只见其背上有无数血红色的骨刺延展而出.伴随着嗤嗤的破空声大做,所有的骨刺如被强弓硬弩发射,如漫天花雨一般的倾泻而出,瞬间.就将前方的四名人类老祖包裹.
His arrogance was extreme!
zhè jiā huo . jìng dǎ suàn yǐ yī dí sì ?
这家伙.竟打算以一敌四?
The four human elders were taken aback; they hadn’t been underestimated for so many years.
xiāo zhāng yǐ jí !
嚣张以极!
The old man with a youthful appearance and white hair’s expression turned cold. Without bothering to greet his other companions, he formed hand seals and tapped his waist, pulling out a storage bag before throwing it forward.
sì míng rén lèi lǎo zǔ dōu bó rán biàn sè , duō shǎo nián le . méi yǒu bèi rén zhè yàng xiǎo kàn guò .
四名人类老祖都勃然变色,多少年了.没有被人这样小看过.
A white light shot out from the bag, followed by a series of clinking sounds. An incredible sight unfolded.
nà tóng yán hè fà de lǎo zhě liǎn sè yī hán , dāng jí yě gù bù dé zhāo hū qí yú sān wèi tóng bàn , yī shǒu qiā jué , lìng wài yī zhī shǒu . zé zài yāo jiān yī pāi , jiāng yí gè chǔ wù dài tí le qǐ lái , suí hòu cháo zhe qián fāng pāo luò .
那童颜鹤发的老者脸色一寒,当即也顾不得招呼其余三位同伴,一手掐诀,另外一只手.则在腰间一拍,将一个储物袋提了起来,随后朝着前方抛落.
When the light dispersed, countless shields appeared in mid-air. Thousands upon thousands!
yī dào bái sè de guāng xiá yóu chǔ wù dài zhōng fēi lüè ér chū , suí hòu dīng dīng dāng dāng de shēng yīn dà zuò , bù kě sī yì de yí mù chū xiàn le .
一道白色的光霞由储物袋中飞掠而出,随后叮叮当当的声音大做,不可思议的一幕出现了.
Both the city’s cultivators and the域外天魔 were dumbfounded. They had never seen such a display of power; how could one person summon so many defensive treasures?
dāng guāng xiá yī sàn , xū kōng zhī zhōng jū rán chū xiàn liǎo wú shù de dùn pái .
当光霞一散,虚空之中居然出现了无数的盾牌.
Incredible!
chéng qiān shàng wàn !
成千上万!
Due to the sheer number of shields, sunlight was blocked.
bù lùn chéng zhōng de xiū shì hái shì chéng wài de yù wài tiān mó , yí gè èr gè . jiē chēng mù jié shé , jiàn guò biāo hàn de xiū xiān zhě , méi jiàn guò shuí néng biāo hàn dào rú cǐ chéng dù , yí gè rén . zěn me kě néng jì chū rú cǐ duō de fáng yù bǎo wù ?
不论城中的修士还是城外的域外天魔,一个二个.皆瞠目结舌,见过彪悍的修仙者,没见过谁能彪悍到如此程度,一个人.怎么可能祭出如此多的防御宝物?
More astonishing scenes followed. Despite their numerous numbers, these shields moved in an orderly fashion, converging into a massive shield that not only protected the four humans but also a significant portion of the city walls.
bù kě sī yì !
不可思议!
The clinking sounds filled his ears as the blood-red bone spines collided with the shields, creating ripples of light but failing to achieve any ideal attack effect. The shower of bone spines was successfully blocked, and cheers erupted from Quanye City. On the other side, the域外天魔’s morale dropped.
yóu yú dùn pái tài duō , yáng guāng dōu bèi zhē dǎng zhù .
由于盾牌太多,阳光都被遮挡住.
The armored天魔 roared in anger. He extended his hands, emitting dark magic energy, and formed a massive double-edged battle axe, over a hundred feet long, with black magical patterns swirling on its surface.
ér jiē xià lái , chū xiàn le gèng duō lìng rén jīng tàn de yí mù .
而接下来,出现了更多令人惊叹的一幕.
Holding the axe, he resembled a giant among giants as he slashed forward. A crescent-shaped light blade emerged from the axe’s edge and struck the shield, causing it to tremble.
nà xiē dùn pái suī duō , dàn fēi xíng de guǐ jì què jǐng rán yǒu xù , suí hòu wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé , yán sī hé fèng de gòu chéng le yí miàn jù dà de dùn pái , bù zhǐ jiāng sì rén hù zhù , shèn zhì lián hěn dà yī bù fèn chéng qiáng dōu bèi nà rù le tā de bǎo hù .
那些盾牌虽多,但飞行的轨迹却井然有序,随后往中间一合,严丝合缝的构成了一面巨大的盾牌,不止将四人护住,甚至连很大一部分城墙都被纳入了它的保护.
His attack didn’t end there; he swung his arms rapidly, releasing more light blades. Although the large shield was formidable, its defenses began to falter over time.
suí hòu dīng dīng dāng dāng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ , nà xiē xuè hóng sè de gǔ cì yǔ dùn pái fā shēng le xiāng chù , jī qǐ yī piàn líng guāng de lián yī , què sī háo méi yǒu dá dào lǐ xiǎng de gōng jī xiào guǒ .
随后叮叮当当的声音传入耳朵,那些血红色的骨刺与盾牌发生了相触,激起一片灵光的涟漪,却丝毫没有达到理想的攻击效果.
The old man with white hair looked extremely displeased but couldn’t endure such attacks indefinitely. He prepared to summon another treasure when a soft voice interrupted: "Why use a bull for a chicken? Brother Fu, you don’t need to intervene; let me handle this."
zhè màn tiān huā yǔ bān de sǎn shè bèi chéng gōng dǎng zhù , quē yuè chéng zhōng huān hū shēng zhòu qǐ , yǔ cǐ xiāng duì yīng , yù wài tiān mó zhè biān , zé xiǎn de shì qì diē luò .
这漫天花雨般的散射被成功挡住,阙月城中欢呼声骤起,与此相对应,域外天魔这边,则显得士气跌落.
The cultivator dressed in Daoist robes spoke, his appearance youthful beyond measure.
nà hēi jiǎ tiān mó dà nù .
那黑甲天魔大怒.
Of course, the true age of a cultivator was not related to their appearance. The higher the cultivation stage, the more evident this disparity became.
yī shēng nù hǒu , shuāng shǒu shēn chū , zhǐ zhǎng zhī jiān mó qì sì shè , suí hòu níng jié chéng le yī bǐng jù dà de shuāng rèn zhàn fǔ , tóng yàng zhǎng bǎi zhàng yú , biǎo miàn hēi sè de mó wén yǒng dòng bù yǐ .
一声怒吼,双手伸出,指掌之间魔气四射,随后凝结成了一柄巨大的双刃战斧,同样长百丈余,表面黑色的魔纹涌动不已.
"Y—"
suí hòu tā shuāng shǒu chí fǔ , jiù rú tóng jù rén zhōng de lì shì , hěn hěn cháo zhe qián fāng zhǎn luò ," pēng " de yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ , yí yuè yá xíng de guāng rèn yóu fǔ rèn chù fú xiàn ér chū , hěn hěn de jī zhuàng zài nà dùn pái de biǎo miàn , dǎ dé qí yī zhèn zhèn chàn .
随后他双手持斧,就如同巨人中的力士,狠狠朝着前方斩落,"嘭"的一声巨响传入耳朵,一月牙形的光刃由斧刃处浮现而出,狠狠的激撞在那盾牌的表面,打得其一阵震颤.
On the old man’s face appeared a hint of hesitation. This Daoist named Diling was only at the middle stage of Transcending Tribulation; facing a late-stage天魔, it seemed like a death sentence.
ér cǐ mó de gōng jī dāng rán bú huì jiù cǐ jié shù , shuāng shǒu shàng xià lián wǔ , yuè lái yuè duō de guāng rèn jī fā ér chū , nà miàn jù dà de dùn pái suī rán wēi néng bù sú , dàn suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí , míng xiǎn yě kāi shǐ fáng yù bú zhù .
而此魔的攻击当然不会就此结束,双手上下连舞,越来越多的光刃激发而出,那面巨大的盾牌虽然威能不俗,但随着时间的推移,明显也开始防御不住.
However, his opponent had volunteered to fight, so he couldn’t be intentionally suicidal. Logically, there must have been some confidence in this.
nà bái fà lǎo wēng de liǎn sè nán kàn wú bǐ , dāng rán bù kě néng yì zhí zhè yàng ái dǎ xià qù .
那白发老翁的脸色难看无比,当然不可能一直这样挨打下去.
This thought passed through his mind, explaining why he hesitated.
liǎn sè yī lì , jiù xiǎng yào jiāng bié de bǎo wù jì qǐ , rán ér jiù zài zhè shí , yī qīng xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ :" shā jī yān yòng niú dāo , fù xiōng , cǐ mó nǐ bù yòng chū shǒu , jiāo yǔ xiǎo dì duì fù ."
脸色一厉,就想要将别的宝物祭起,然而就在这时,一轻笑的声音传入耳朵:"杀鸡焉用牛刀,付兄,此魔你不用出手,交予小弟对付."
But at such a moment, there was no time for hesitation. As an elder of the Transcending Tribulation stage, he was naturally decisive and ruthless. Having volunteered to fight, he had some confidence. Handing over the strongest enemy to him would not be a bad choice.
shuō huà de shì nà zuò dào zhuāng dǎ bàn de xiū shì , cóng róng mào shàng kàn , nián qīng dào le jí diǎn .
说话的是那做道装打扮的修士,从容貌上看,年轻到了极点.
"Thank you, True Immortal."
dāng rán , xiū xiān zhě de zhēn shí nián líng , kě bù huì yǔ róng mào chéng zhèng bǐ , yuè shì gāo jiē de xiū xiān zhě , yuè shì rú cǐ .
当然,修仙者的真实年龄,可不会与容貌成正比,越是高阶的修仙者,越是如此.
He turned around, bowing and clasping his hands in greeting.
" nǐ ……"
"你……"
But before he could finish speaking, a loud explosion echoed: The shields he had summoned, though powerful, couldn’t withstand the late-stage天魔’s relentless assault. They were now useless.
nà bái fà lǎo zhě liǎn shàng , bù yóu de lù chū yī sī yóu yí , bì jìng zhè dì líng dào rén jǐn shì dù jié zhōng qī , duì shàng hòu qī tiān mó , zěn me kàn , dōu shì jiǔ sǐ yì shēng de jié jú .
那白发老者脸上,不由得露出一丝犹疑,毕竟这地凌道人仅是渡劫中期,对上后期天魔,怎么看,都是九死一生的结局.
The armored天魔 wouldn’t stop there; as the saying went, "a single push is enough." He emitted intense black light and charged at the four human cultivators with a terrifying roar.
dàn duì fāng zhǔ dòng qǐng zhàn , wú lùn rú hé , yě bù kě néng shì gù yì zhǎo sǐ , àn lǐ shuō , yīng gāi shì yǒu jǐ fēn bǎ wò .
但对方主动请战,无论如何,也不可能是故意找死,按理说,应该是有几分把握.
As he flew, he let out strange cries that left an awe-inspiring impression.
zhè ge niàn tou zài nǎo hǎi zhōng zhuǎn guò , yě jiù nán guài lǎo zhě huì yóu yí bù dìng le .
这个念头在脑海中转过,也就难怪老者会犹疑不定了.
"Come on!"
rán ér cǐ kè zhè zhǒng xíng shì , yòu nǎ ér yǒu shí jiān chí yí , zuò wèi dù jié qī lǎo zǔ , tā zì rán yě shì hěn lì guǒ jué de rén wù , jì zhǔ dòng qǐng zhàn , kěn dìng yǒu jǐ fēn bǎ wò , nà zì jǐ shùn shuǐ tuī zhōu , jiāng zuì qiáng de dí rén jiāo yǔ tā yìng fù , yě jiù bù suàn shén me tài huài de xuǎn zé .
然而此刻这种形式,又哪儿有时间迟疑,做为渡劫期老祖,他自然也是狠厉果决的人物,既主动请战,肯定有几分把握,那自己顺水推舟,将最强的敌人交予他应付,也就不算什么太坏的选择.
Diling True Immortal’s face showed no fear. With a wave of his拂尘, it buzzed loudly, followed by a burst of white light. In the circle of light, a fierce white-tufted tiger appeared.
" yǒu láo zhēn rén le ."
"有劳真人了."
A hundred feet long and incredibly powerful, it opened its blood-red mouth to release a massive beam of light.
tā huí tóu gǒng shǒu bào quán de shuō .
他回头拱手抱拳的说.
The light column was astonishingly powerful, capable of sweeping across the entire sky as it rushed towards the armored天魔.
rán ér huà yīn wèi luò , jiù tīng .[,!] jiàn " hōng " de yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ , tā suǒ jì chū de nà shù wàn dùn pái , suī shì bù dé le de bǎo wù , dàn yě jià bú zhù yī hòu qī tiān mó de kuáng gōng , cǐ kè shòu zhōng zhèng qǐn .
然而话音未落,就听.[,!]见"轰"的一声巨响传入耳朵,他所祭出的那数万盾牌,虽是不得了的宝物,但也架不住一后期天魔的狂攻,此刻寿终正寝.
As a late-stage Transcending Tribulation cultivator, the天魔 didn’t show any weakness. With his battle axe swinging wildly, thunderous sounds filled the air. Black lightning danced around him and transformed into grotesque snakes, each about the size of a water bucket.
nà hēi jiǎ tiān mó , dāng rán bú huì jiù cǐ zuò bà , sú huà shuō , yī gǔ zuò qì , dàn jiàn tā hún shēn hēi máng dà qǐ , jiā wú shàng mó wēi xiàng sì míng rén zú xiū shì shā le guò qù .
那黑甲天魔,当然不会就此作罢,俗话说,一鼓作气,但见他浑身黑芒大起,夹无上魔威像四名人族修士杀了过去.
Though not as large as the tiger, their numbers gave them an advantage. Opening their mouths, they spat out countless fireballs.
zài fēi de tóng shí , kǒu zhōng hái yǒu guài xiào shēng dà zuò , shēng shì lìng rén zé shé .
在飞的同时,口中还有怪啸声大做,声势令人咋舌.
(Youth Lion Alliance)
The deep, buzzing voice of the armored giant reached his ears, and to his surprise, it was spoken with a rather sincere tone.
This wasn't unusual. As an old saying went: "The best strategy is to attack the mind." It made sense that facing four same-level powerhouses, getting them to surrender voluntarily would be the smartest choice.
