mò yǔ de liǎn shàng mǎn shì huān xǐ ， shèn zhì gù bù dé qù zhuī shā nà bā wěi xiān hú ， shuāng mù zhōng yǐn yǐn shǎn shuò zhe tān lán zhī sè 。[][].[].]
墨羽的脸上满是欢喜，甚至顾不得去追杀那八尾仙狐，双目中隐隐闪烁着贪婪之色。[][].[].]
Mò Yǔ's face was filled with joy, and he even didn't bother to chase after the eight-tailed immortal fox. Greed shone in his eyes as he looked at it.
zhè yě shì nán guài de 。
这也是难怪的。
This wasn't surprising either.
miè shā nà hú lí ， bù guò chū yī kǒu xiōng zhōng de è qì ， ér yǎn qián de zhēn xiān duì tā lái shuō ， què shì shàng tiān sòng lái de dà lǐ 。
灭杀那狐狸，不过出一口胸中的恶气，而眼前的真仙对他来说，却是上天送来的大礼。
Killing that fox would just be a matter of venting his anger. But before him was a true cultivator who had been sent by heaven, a great gift.
tā rú jīn ， suī rán zhèng tuō le jìn zhì de shù fù ， rán ér zhè me duō nián bèi qiú jìn yú cǐ chù ， yě nán miǎn yuán qì dà sǔn le 。
他如今，虽然挣脱了禁制的束缚，然而这么多年被囚禁于此处，也难免元气大损了。
Although he had broken free from the restrictions, so many years spent here had inevitably damaged his essence energy greatly.
yǎn qián de zhēn xiān suī shēn shòu zhòng shāng méi cuò ， dàn yī shēn běn mìng zhēn yuán duì tā de xī yǐn lì ， què shì wú yǐ lún bǐ de 。
眼前的真仙虽身受重伤没错，但一身本命真元对他的吸引力，却是无以伦比的。
The true cultivator in front of him might have suffered severe injuries, but his innate true essence was incredibly attractive to Mò Yǔ. If he could absorb and integrate it, not only would he be able to make up for his losses from the past few years, but he might even advance further.
ruò shì néng bèi zì jǐ xī nà róng hé ， tā zhè xiē nián de sǔn hào bù jǐn néng gòu bǔ zú ， ér qiě hái yǒu kě néng gèng jìn yí bù 。
若是能被自己吸纳融合，他这些年的损耗不仅能够补足，而且还有可能更进一步。
How could such a great gift be abandoned? With a long howl, he emitted a green glow all over his body as he rushed towards the opponent.
zhè yàng de dà lǐ ， nǎ néng gòu fàng qì ， tā yī shēng cháng xiào ， hún shēn qīng máng dà qǐ ， biàn xiǎng zhe duì shǒu pū le guò qù 。
这样的大礼，哪能够放弃，他一声长啸，浑身青芒大起，便想着对手扑了过去。
Xuangu's expression was extremely gloomy.
xuán gǔ de liǎn sè zé shì yīn chén yǐ jí 。
玄古的脸色则是阴沉以极。
A tiger falling into plain sight would be bullied by dogs; a dragon in shallow waters would be teased by shrimp. If he were at full strength, a mere apprentice wouldn't have been worth considering. But...
hǔ luò píng yáng bèi quǎn qī ， lóng yóu qiǎn tān shòu xiā xì 。
虎落平阳被犬欺，龙游浅滩受虾戏。
Brave men don't boast of their past valor. Not only had his physical body come from a soul transfer, but it could only exert three-tenths of its power. Moreover, he had accidentally fallen into a trap and suffered severe injuries.
zì jǐ ruò shì quán shèng zhī shí ， qū qū yí gè dào tóng qǐ huì fàng zài yǎn lǐ ， kě …… hǎo hàn bù tí dāng nián yǒng ， tā rú jīn ， bù jǐn fǎ qū lái zì yú duó shě ， zhǐ yǒu běn tǐ sān chéng de wēi lì ， ér qiě gāng cái bù xiǎo xīn luò rù xiàn jǐng ， shēn shòu zhòng chuāng 。
自己若是全盛之时，区区一个道童岂会放在眼里，可……好汉不提当年勇，他如今，不仅法躯来自于夺舍，只有本体三成的威力，而且刚才不小心落入陷阱，深受重创。
While severely injured wasn't entirely accurate, his current situation was extremely perilous. Otherwise, why would the proud true cultivator have fled in such haste?
shuō zhòng shāng chuí sǐ yǒu xiē tài guò ， dàn rú jīn de jìng kuàng yě shì bù miào yǐ jí le ， fǒu zé ， yǐ tā shēn wèi zhēn xiān de jiāo ào ， yòu hé bì cóng lín xuān yǎn qián luò huāng ér táo ne ？
说重伤垂死有些太过，但如今的境况也是不妙以极了，否则，以他身为真仙的骄傲，又何必从林轩眼前落荒而逃呢？
He hadn't expected to be caught between two dangers. What should he do? Careful consideration was needed.
méi xiǎng dào cái chū hǔ kǒu ， yòu rù láng wō ， gāi zěn me bàn ， dào xū yào xiǎo xīn cái néng dìng duó 。
没想到才出虎口，又入狼窝，该怎么办，倒需要小心才能定夺。
With this thought, Xuangu deeply inhaled and exhaled, emitting a golden glow all over his body before retracting it. He seemed to transform into a flying sword.
zhè ge niàn tou zài nǎo hǎi zhōng zhuǎn guò ， xuán gǔ shàng rén shēn shēn hū xī ， hún shēn jīn máng dà qǐ ， suí hòu yī liǎn ， zhěng gè rén fǎng fú huà wèi le yī bǐng fēi jiàn 。
这个念头在脑海中转过，玄古上人深深呼吸，浑身金芒大起，随后一敛，整个人仿佛化为了一柄飞剑。
This wasn't the technique of merging with a weapon, but clearly had some connection to it. Instead of trying to kill his opponent, he moved at an astonishing speed away from him.
zhè bú shì rén jiàn hé yī zhī shù ， dàn xiǎn rán yòu yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng tōng de ， bù qiú shā dí ， ér shì yǐ lìng rén chēng mù jié shé de sù dù xiàng yuǎn chù táo qù 。
这不是人剑合一之术，但显然又有几分相通的，不求杀敌，而是以令人瞠目结舌的速度像远处逃去。
"Hmph, thinking you can run? You're truly foolish." A smile appeared on Mò Yǔ's face as he said: "Watch this, Solidify the Heavens and Earth."
“ hēng ， xiǎng zǒu ， zhēn shì yú bù kě jí 。” mò yǔ de liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī xiào yì ：“ kàn zhāo ， gù huà tiān dì 。”
“哼，想走，真是愚不可及。”墨羽的脸上露出一丝笑意：“看招，固化天地。”
He clasped his hands together, shooting out a series of magical techniques. Then, he spread his palms and made a pushing motion forward.
tā shuāng shǒu wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， yī dào dào fǎ jué yóu zhǐ zhǎng jiān jī shè ér chū 。
他双手往中间一合，一道道法诀由指掌间激射而出。
Boom!
suí hòu liǎng zhǎng tān kāi 。 zuò le yí gè cháo qián fāng píng tuī de dòng zuò 。
随后两掌摊开。做了一个朝前方平推的动作。
A thunderous sound echoed in the sky, followed by gray light rushing out from his fingers. Wherever it passed, the sky rippled, and eventually turned into solid matter.
hōng ！
轰！
This sounded unbelievable, but what happened before his eyes was real. Xuangu's speed had slowed down significantly; he could barely move at one-tenth of his previous speed.
tiān kōng zhōng ， fǎng fú yǒu léi míng bān de shēng yīn xiǎng guò ， suí hòu zhǐ zhǎng jiān ， yǒu yī dào dào huī máng hū xiào ér chū ， suǒ guò zhī chù ， tiān kōng fàn qǐ lián yī ， suí hòu jū rán biàn chéng le gù tǐ 。
天空中，仿佛有雷鸣般的声音响过，随后指掌间，有一道道灰芒呼啸而出，所过之处，天空泛起涟漪，随后居然变成了固体。
What a bizarre rule power.
zhè huà tīng shàng qù yǒu xiē bù kě sī yì 。
这话听上去有些不可思议。
Meanwhile, on the other side, Lin Xuan met Nailong True Man by chance and felt extremely delighted.
dàn yǎn qián què shí rú cǐ ， xuán gǔ shàng rén suī rán méi yǒu bèi jìn gù ， dàn dùn guāng de sù dù yě yī xià zi jiǎn màn le bù zhī fán jǐ ， bù zú gāng cái de shí fēn zhī yī 。
但眼前确实如此，玄古上人虽然没有被禁锢，但遁光的速度也一下子减慢了不知凡几，不足刚才的十分之一。
Not only did his brother-in-arms escape danger, but also gaining such a powerful ally meant that the dangers in the Little Immortal Realm were nothing to worry about. This great cultivator had real strength; working together with him might even allow them to survive an encounter with a true cultivator.
zhè shì yī zhǒng duō me guǐ yì de fǎ zé zhī lì 。
这是一种多么诡异的法则之力。
"Brother, how come you're here?"
ér mò yǔ zuò wèi shī shù zhě 。 zì rán bú huì shòu yǐng xiǎng le ， cǐ xiāo bǐ zhǎng ， hěn kuài jiù zhuī le shàng qù 。
而墨羽做为施术者。自然不会受影响了，此消彼长，很快就追了上去。
Lin Xuan's words were full of curiosity.
“ nǐ …… zhǎo sǐ ！”
“你……找死！”
"Heh heh, I arrived at this place by chance. But why are you in the Little Immortal Realm, Third Brother?"
táo pǎo shòu zǔ ， xuán gǔ yòu jīng yòu nù ， sú huà shuō gǒu jí tiào qiáng ， gèng hé kuàng shì zhēn xiān bèi tā bī zhì le rú cǐ dì bù 。
逃跑受阻，玄古又惊又怒，俗话说狗急跳墙，更何况是真仙被他逼至了如此地步。
"This is a long story. Let's catch up to that enemy first."
yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī yuàn dú ， duǒ duǒ lián huā zhàn fàng ér chū 。
眼中闪过一丝怨毒，朵朵莲花绽放而出。
There was an urgency to their situation. Lin Xuan briefly explained how they met Xuangu True Man. Nailong listened with a serious expression.
zhuǎn shēn fǎn xiàng duì fāng pū guò qù le 。
转身反向对方扑过去了。
While he might seem carefree, his experience far exceeded Lin Xuan's.
yī shí jiān ， bào míng shēng zhòu qǐ ， xū kōng zhōng 。 zhèn dàng zhe jīng rén de fǎ zé zhī lì 。
一时间，爆鸣声骤起，虚空中。震荡着惊人的法则之力。
"According to what you say, the opponent could indeed be a true cultivator who has just arrived."
liǎng gè jiā huo hěn hěn de zhàn zài le yì qǐ 。
两个家伙狠狠的战在了一起。
"What? A true cultivator who has just arrived? Why would such a one come to our spirit realm?"
……
……
Lin Xuan was shocked despite having some vague guesses. The truth of this matter was too shocking.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， lìng yī biān ， lín xuān yǔ nài lóng zhēn rén qiǎo yù ， xīn zhōng zì rán shì jí wéi huān xǐ 。
与此同时，另一边，林轩与鼐龙真人巧遇，心中自然是极为欢喜。
"Yes, I didn't say he just arrived; maybe it's an old guy from the ancient times," Nailong explained.
yī lái 。 yì xiōng huà xiǎn wéi yí ， èr lái ， dé zhè me yī wèi qiáng zhù ， xiǎo xiān yù zhōng de wēi xiǎn 。 yě jiù méi yǒu shén me liǎo bù qǐ 。
一来。义兄化险为夷，二来，得这么一位强助，小仙域中的危险。也就没有什么了不起。
"From the ancient times... Brother, are you saying that during the great war between the three realms in ancient times, the true cultivator came down to deal with the Asura King?"
zhè wèi dà gē biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， suī rán bù nà me kào pǔ ér ， rán ér zhēn shí de shí lì 。 qí shí què jí wéi chū sè ， yǔ tā lián shǒu ， jiù suàn yǔ zhēn xiān xiāng yù ， yě wèi shǐ méi yǒu zì bǎo zhī lì 。
这位大哥表面上看，虽然不那么靠谱儿，然而真实的实力。其实却极为出色，与他联手，就算与真仙相遇，也未始没有自保之力。
"What? The Asura King led ghosts and spirits to massacre our spirit realm? Why would he do such a thing?" Lin Xuan's face showed eager anticipation. With Nailong True Man's identity and experience, he must know the truth.
“ dà gē ， nǐ zěn me huì zài zhè lǐ ？”
“大哥，你怎么会在这里？”
Lin Xuan was eagerly waiting for an answer.
lín xuān de yán yǔ zhōng ， tòu zhe hào qí 。
林轩的言语中，透着好奇。
However, what came next was Nailong True Man's sigh: "Third Brother, are you interested in ancient times? But I don't know either."
“ hēi hēi ， běn shuài gē shì jī yuán qiǎo hé dào le cǐ dì ， dǎo shì sān dì nǐ ， yòu zěn me huì chū xiàn zài xiǎo xiān yù ？”
“嘿嘿，本帅哥是机缘巧合到了此地，倒是三弟你，又怎么会出现在小仙域？”
"What? Even you, Brother, don't know?"
“ cǐ shì shuō lái huà cháng ， dà gē ， wǒ men hái shì xiān zhuī shàng nà qiáng dí zài shuō 。”
“此事说来话长，大哥，我们还是先追上那强敌再说。”
Lin Xuan's face showed disbelief.
shì yǒu qīng zhòng huǎn jí ， lín xuān jiǎn dān jiāo dài le jǐ jù rú hé yǔ nà xuán gǔ shàng rén xiāng yù ， nài lóng tīng le ， liǎn sè yì níng zhòng qǐ lái 。
事有轻重缓急，林轩简单交代了几句如何与那玄古上人相遇，鼐龙听了，脸色亦凝重起来。
"There's nothing strange about that," Nailong sighed with a wistful look. "Speaking of the Asura King, she was indeed an extraordinary woman back then—beautiful and intelligent. I knew her personally in those days."
tā shì wán shì bù gōng méi cuò ， dàn jiàn shí qí shí yuǎn shèng lín xuān xǔ duō 。
他是玩世不恭没错，但见识其实远胜林轩许多。
"Oh? Did you know the Asura King?" Lin Xuan felt a hint of jealousy as he asked: "Brother, you're known as the first playboy in all three realms. They say the Asura King's beauty is unparalleled. Have you ever tried to pursue her?"
“ zhào sān dì nǐ zhè me shuō ， duì fāng dào zhēn yǒu kě néng shì jiàng lín zhī zhēn xiān de 。”
“照三弟你这么说，对方倒真有可能是降临之真仙的。”
"Chasing that woman, Third Brother, don't joke around. The Asura King is indeed the most beautiful in the three realms, but she can only be admired from afar. Who dares to chase after her? Ha! In this world, anyone who marries the Asura King will have my utmost respect."
“ shén me ， jiàng lín de zhēn xiān ， duì fāng lái wǒ men líng jiè wèi hé ？”
“什么，降临的真仙，对方来我们灵界为何？”
Nailong's expression was extremely disdainful.
lín xuān xīn zhōng suī rán yǐn yǐn yǒu cāi cè ， dàn hái shì rěn bú zhù dà jīng shī sè ， bì jìng zhēn xiàng ruò shì zhè yàng yě tài jīng rén le 。
林轩心中虽然隐隐有猜测，但还是忍不住大惊失色，毕竟真相若是这样也太惊人了。
Lin Xuan was surprised: "Is it really that terrifying and unapproachable?"
“ ń ， wǒ bú shì shuō ， duì fāng shì gāng gāng jiàng lín de ， yě xǔ shì yǐ qián de jǐ gè lǎo jiā huǒ 。” nài lóng zhēn rén rú cǐ zhè bān de jiě shì qǐ lái 。
“嗯，我不是说，对方是刚刚降临的，也许是以前的几个老家伙。”鼐龙真人如此这般的解释起来。
He felt puzzled; Mo'er was so kind, gentle, and generous. Her past life couldn't be that outrageous, could it?
“ yǐ qián de ， dà gē shì shuō shàng gǔ ……”
“以前的，大哥是说上古……”
"I wouldn't lie to you, but I didn't expect you to be such a nosy person," Nailong said unexpectedly.
lín xuān shuō dào zhè lǐ ， liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī chí yí ， dàn zhè me hǎo de jī huì ， què yě bù yuàn yì fàng qì ， yú shì shùn zhe zhè ge huà tí ：“ shì shàng gǔ zhī shí sān jiè dà zhàn kāi qǐ ， cóng zhēn xiān jiè jiàng lín lái duì fù ā xiū luó wáng de ma ？”
林轩说到这里，脸上露出一丝迟疑，但这么好的机会，却也不愿意放弃，于是顺着这个话题：“是上古之时三界大战开启，从真仙界降临来对付阿修罗王的吗？”
"Ah... Haha, curiosity is natural."
“ dà gē ， shàng gǔ zhī shí jiū jìng fā shēng le shén me ， ā xiū luó wáng wèi hé huì dài lǐng yīn hún guǐ wù ， lái jiāng líng jiè shā yí gè xuè liú chéng hé ？”
“大哥，上古之时究竟发生了什么，阿修罗王为何会带领阴魂鬼物，来将灵界杀一个血流成河？”
Lin Xuan could only evade the question.
lín xuān shuō dào zhè lǐ ， liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī qǐ pàn zhī sè ， yǐ nài lóng zhēn rén de shēn fèn shí lì ， yòu céng jīng yǒu guò qīn shēn jīng lì ， xiǎng bì shì yīng gāi zhī dào zhēn xiàng yuán wěi dì 。
林轩说到这里，脸上露出一丝企盼之色，以鼐龙真人的身份实力，又曾经有过亲身经历，想必是应该知道真相原委地。
Fortunately, Nailong didn't delve deeper. Instead, he continued with gossip: "To say that the Asura King was unapproachable isn't entirely true; back then, she wasn't alone. She had some connections with me and many others, including scattered immortals, demon kings, and primordial true demons."
tā qī dài yǐ jí 。
他期待以极。
"Oh?"
rán ér děng lái de què shì nài lóng zhēn rén de tàn xī ：“ zěn me ， sān dì duì shàng gǔ zhī shì gǎn xìng qù ， zhǐ shì nǐ wèn wǒ ， wèi xiōng què yě bìng bù xiǎo de 。”
然而等来的却是鼐龙真人的叹息：“怎么，三弟对上古之事感兴趣，只是你问我，为兄却也并不晓得。”
"Indeed, not just me. The Asura King had good relations with many of them," Nailong continued.
Mò Yǔ's face was filled with joy, and he even didn't bother to chase after the eight-tailed immortal fox. Greed shone in his eyes as he looked at it.
This wasn't surprising either.
Killing that fox would just be a matter of venting his anger. But before him was a true cultivator who had been sent by heaven, a great gift.

How could such a great gift be abandoned? With a long howl, he emitted a green glow all over his body as he rushed towards the opponent.
