“ lín xuān lín méng zhǔ ， nǐ hái zhēn shì dǎn dà bāo tiān de rén wù ， dān qiāng pǐ mǎ ， jiù gǎn chuǎng rù zhè lǐ ， kàn lái nǐ shì méi yǒu jiāng wǒ men yù wài tiān mó fàng zài yǎn lǐ 。《.”
“林轩林盟主，你还真是胆大包天的人物，单枪匹马，就敢闯入这里，看来你是没有将我们域外天魔放在眼里。《.”
"Lin Xuan, Lord of the Alliance, you truly are one with no fear. Venturing alone into this place shows that you do not regard us, the域外天魔, as an opponent."
mó yán chéng zhǔ wēng wēng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， shuō huà de ， shì zhōng jiān nà rú tóng yán shí yì bān de jiā huo 。
魔岩城主嗡嗡的声音传入耳朵，说话的，是中间那如同岩石一般的家伙。
The voice of the Rock City Lord buzzed in Lin Xuan's ears. The speaker was the rock-like figure in the middle.
“ nà yòu rú hé ？”
“那又如何？”
"Who cares?" Lin Xuan's face showed a trace of impatience. If such empty talk was all they had to offer, he would rather not waste his time on it.
lín xuān liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī bù nài fán de shén sè ， ruò shì zhè yàng méi yíng yǎng de fèi huà ， tā yě lǎn de yǔ duì fāng luō suo 。
林轩脸上闪过一丝不耐烦的神色，若是这样没营养的废话，他也懒得与对方啰嗦。
In the cultivation world, might made right. Words alone could accomplish nothing.
xiū xiān jiè shì yǐ qiáng zhě wèi zūn ， chěng kǒu shé zhī lì ， nà kě shì fēn háo yě méi yǒu yòng chǔ 。
修仙界是以强者为尊，逞口舌之利，那可是分毫也没有用处。
"How so? You have killed and injured so many Sovereigns of Evil. Do you think you can leave this place unscathed? If you are wise, submit now and suffer less. Of course, if you truly wish to repent and join us as a Sovereign of Evil from the Outside World, I might be able to intercede on your behalf with Great Void Lord..."
“ rú hé ， gé xià shā shāng wǒ men zhè me duō mó zūn ， nán dào hái xiǎng yào shēng lí cǐ chù ， shí xiàng de ， jiù shù shǒu jiù fù ， nà yàng hái kě yǐ shǎo shòu xǔ duō kǔ chǔ ， dāng rán ， nǐ ruò shì zhēn xīn yuàn yì huǐ guò ， jiā rù chéng wéi wǒ men yù wài tiān mó ， běn zūn zhě yě bú shì bù kě yǐ xiàng xū wú dà rén qiú qíng de ……”
“如何，阁下杀伤我们这么多魔尊，难道还想要生离此处，识相的，就束手就缚，那样还可以少受许多苦楚，当然，你若是真心愿意悔过，加入成为我们域外天魔，本尊者也不是不可以像虚无大人求情的……”
"Thank you for that," Lin Xuan's face showed gratitude.
“ rú cǐ duō xiè nǐ le 。” lín xuān tīng le ， liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī gǎn jī zhī sè 。
“如此多谢你了。”林轩听了，脸上露出一丝感激之色。
This expression left the Rock City Lord momentarily speechless. He had hoped to recruit Lin Xuan, but this was too easy; he still had much more to say...
zhè yàng de biǎo qíng ， dào ràng nà mó yán chéng zhǔ yī dāi ， tā shì xiǎng yào jiāng lín xuān zhāo xiáng guò lái ， dàn zhè wèi miǎn yě tài róng yì le yì diǎn ， zì jǐ hái yǒu hěn duō huà méi yǒu shuō wán ……
这样的表情，倒让那魔岩城主一呆，他是想要将林轩招降过来，但这未免也太容易了一点，自己还有很多话没有说完……
But soon, danger became apparent.
dàn hěn kuài ， tā jiù gǎn jué dào le wēi xiǎn 。
但很快，他就感觉到了危险。
Without further ado, he shifted his body to one side, and a faint shadow appeared as gale winds blew past him. He vanished from the spot in an instant.
lái bù jí duō zuò sī suǒ ， jiāng shēn qū wǎng zhōu wéi yī cè ， dùn shí ， yī dào cán yǐng fú xiàn ér chū ， gāng fēng chuī fú ， tā zhòu rán cóng yuán dì bú jiàn le 。
来不及多做思索，将身躯往周围一侧，顿时，一道残影浮现而出，罡风吹拂，他骤然从原地不见了。
Almost simultaneously, "puff" sounded in Lin Xuan's ears. A short sword materialized at the place where he had stood, leaving a trail of blood droplets behind.
jī hū yǔ cǐ tóng shí ，“ pū ” de yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yī bǐng duǎn jiàn sī háo zhēng zhào yě wú ， zài tā gāng cái suǒ zhàn lì zhī chù fú xiàn ér chū ， dài qǐ yī lián chuàn xuè zhū 。
几乎与此同时，“噗”的一声传入耳朵，一柄短剑丝毫征兆也无，在他刚才所站立之处浮现而出，带起一连串血珠。
The faces of three Sovereigns of Evil showed pain. Only one was injured, but the other two seemed to share his suffering.
sān míng mó zūn de liǎn shàng ， dōu lù chū le tòng kǔ ， shòu shāng de míng míng zhǐ shì qí zhōng yí gè ， lìng wài liǎng gè ， què xiàng shì gǎn tóng shēn shòu shì de 。
三名魔尊的脸上，都露出了痛苦，受伤的明明只是其中一个，另外两个，却像是感同身受似的。
Then, the Lizard Sovereign lowered his head and moved his snake tail. A streak of light pierced the sky as it shot towards an empty space on the left.
suí hòu nà xī yì mó zūn dī xià tou lú ， bèi hòu shé wěi yī dòng ， dùn shí yī dào jīng máng huà pò tiān jì ， cháo zhe zuǒ cè mǒu kōng wú yì rén de dì fāng cì qù 。
随后那蜥蜴魔尊低下头颅，背后蛇尾一动，顿时一道惊芒划破天际，朝着左侧某空无一人的地方刺去。
A flash of multicolored spiritual light appeared in mid-air, countless beautiful butterflies materializing. They converged into a dazzling light that almost blinded the eyes.
wǔ sè líng guāng yī shǎn ， bàn kōng zhōng wú shù cǎi dié fú xiàn ， měi lì dào le jí diǎn 。 suí hòu nà xiē cǎi dié wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， yào mù de líng guāng qiáng dào le jī hū ràng rén bù néng zhí shì de dì bù 。
五色灵光一闪，半空中无数彩蝶浮现，美丽到了极点。随后那些彩蝶往中间一合，耀目的灵光强到了几乎让人不能直视的地步。
Out stepped a beautiful maiden.
què shì yī měi mào shào nǚ fú xiàn ér chū 。
却是一美貌少女浮现而出。
"Phantom Moon Moth!"
“ huàn yuè é ！”
“幻月蛾！”
The Lizard Sovereign's face showed a trace of fear.
xī yì mó zūn de liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī jì dàn zhī sè 。
蜥蜴魔尊的脸上露出一丝忌惮之色。
Then, the two-headed four-armed Sovereign of Evil moved as well. His four arms danced, and in his palms appeared rings, magic swords, short spears, and spirit banners—four treasures.
suí hòu nà shuāng tóu sì bì de mó zūn yě dòng le ， sì tiáo shǒu bì yī wǔ ， shǒu zhǎng zhī zhōng dùn shí duō chū le yuán huán ， mó jiàn ， duǎn gē ， líng fān děng sì yàng bǎo wù 。
随后那双头四臂的魔尊也动了，四条手臂一舞，手掌之中顿时多出了圆环，魔剑，短戈，灵幡等四样宝物。
He swung them towards the front.
suí hòu cháo zhe qián fāng huī luò 。
随后朝着前方挥落。
Rule of Law power surged forth.
fǎ zé zhī lì sì shè 。
法则之力四射。
Black霞light spread out, sword energy crisscrossed, and illusions shot everywhere, all converging on an empty corner.
yī dào dào hēi sè xiá guāng xí juǎn ér chū ， jiàn qì zòng héng bǎi hé ， huàn yǐng gèng shì màn tiān jī shè ， quán bù cháo zhe mǒu kōng wú yì rén de jiǎo luò lǒng zhào xià qù le 。
一道道黑色霞光席卷而出，剑气纵横捭阖，幻影更是漫天激射，全部朝着某空无一人的角落笼罩下去了。
"Little Moon!"
“ yuè ér ！”
“月儿！”
Lin Xuan was greatly worried. This two-headed four-armed Sovereign had advanced through Tribulation, and Little Moon's strength had not yet recovered from her past life. Could she withstand such a sharp attack?
lín xuān kàn le dà wèi xīn jí 。 zhè shuāng tóu sì bì de mó zūn kě yě shì dù jié hòu qī ， yuè ér shàng méi yǒu huī fù qián shì de shí lì ， néng fǒu dǎng zhù zhè yàng xī lì de gōng jī ？
林轩看了大为心急。这双头四臂的魔尊可也是渡劫后期，月儿尚没有恢复前世的实力，能否挡住这样犀利的攻击？
But help came too late. The three Sovereigns of Evil were already telepathically connected. With a shake of the rock-like Sovereign's body, his path to Lin Xuan was blocked.
rán ér chū shǒu jiù yuán yǐ jīng lái bù jí ， nà sān míng mó zūn yuán běn jiù shì xīn yì xiāng tōng dì ， yán shí mó zūn shēn xíng yī dǒu ， yǐ jiāng lín xuān de qù lù dǎng zhù 。
然而出手救援已经来不及，那三名魔尊原本就是心意相通地，岩石魔尊身形一抖，已将林轩的去路挡住。
"Move aside!"
“ ràng kāi ！”
“让开！”
As the saying goes, worry leads to confusion. Lin Xuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent as he swept his sleeves. The Nine Palaces Sword appeared, its silver light dazzling. He grasped it lightly and shook it. "Cishish," sounded as countless sword threads burst forth from where he stood, raining down on the opponent.
sú huà shuō ， guān xīn zé luàn ， lín xuān cǐ shí yōu xīn yuè ér ， yǎn zhōng nà shì shā yì mí màn 。
俗话说，关心则乱，林轩此时忧心月儿，眼中那是杀意弥漫。
The rock-like Sovereign of Evil saw clearly but showed no fear on his face.
xiù páo yī fú 。 jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn fú xiàn ， yín guāng yào yǎn ， lín xuān fān shǒu wò zhù ， qīng qīng yī dǒu 。 dùn shí “ chī chī ” shēng dà zuò ， wú shù jiàn sī cóng qí zhàn lì chù bào fā ér chū ， pū tiān gài dì ， zhí cháo duì miàn jī shè ér qù 。
袖袍一拂。九宫须臾剑浮现，银光耀眼，林轩翻手握住，轻轻一抖。顿时“嗤嗤”声大作，无数剑丝从其站立处爆发而出，铺天盖地，直朝对面激射而去。
He clasped his arms in front of him, and a surging mass of evil qi twisted into view. Then, it transformed into a heavy stone shield.
yán shí mó zūn kàn de qīng chǔ 。 liǎn shàng què méi yǒu lù chū duō shǎo jù sè 。
岩石魔尊看得清楚。脸上却没有露出多少惧色。
Note: This was not an illusionary shield; this was the rock-like Sovereign's true form.
liǎng zhǐ shǒu bì wǎng xiōng qián yī hé ， gǔn gǔn mó qì fān yǒng ér chū ， niǔ qū mó hú 。 suí hòu jìng rán biàn huà chū yí miàn hòu zhòng de shí dùn lái le 。
两只手臂往胸前一合，滚滚魔气翻涌而出，扭曲模糊。随后竟然变化出一面厚重的石盾来了。
This guy had actually turned himself into a shield.
zhù yì ， bú shì mó qì huàn huà chū lái de shí dùn ， ér shì zhè yán shí mó zūn de běn tǐ 。
注意，不是魔气幻化出来的石盾，而是这岩石魔尊的本体。
Lin Xuan gaped in amazement. Even with his extensive knowledge, he had never seen such a power before.
zhè jiā huo ， jū rán jiāng zì jǐ biàn chéng le yí miàn dùn pái 。
这家伙，居然将自己变成了一面盾牌。
Even if demons excelled at refining their bodies, there was no reason to transform oneself into a magical artifact.
lín xuān chēng mù jié shé ， jí biàn yǐ tā jiàn shí guǎng bó ， zhè yàng de shén tōng yě bù céng jiàn guò 。
林轩瞠目结舌，即便以他见识广博，这样的神通也不曾见过。
But Lin Xuan's astonishment did not stop him from acting. In an instant, the myriad sword threads shot forward.
jiù suàn yāo zú shàn cháng liàn tǐ ， yě méi yǒu jiāng zì jǐ biàn huà chéng fǎ bǎo de dào lǐ 。
就算妖族擅长炼体，也没有将自己变化成法宝的道理。
Like rain beating on banana leaves, the surging evil qi was shattered in one strike. But the stone shield was incredibly sturdy; though damaged, it remained standing.
dàn lín xuān jīng qí guī jīng qí ， xià shǒu kě shì sī háo yě bù hán hù dì 。
但林轩惊奇归惊奇，下手可是丝毫也不含糊地。
Then, a flash of magic light appeared, and the countless wounds vanished.
zhuǎn yǎn jiān ， nà wàn qiān jiàn sī jiù yǐ jī shè shàng qù 。
转眼间，那万千剑丝就已激射上去。
"Interesting. An indestructible body, no, perhaps even more formidable."
dùn shí ， rú yǔ dǎ jiāo hé ， gǔn gǔn mó qì bèi yī jī ér pò ， kě nà shí dùn de jiān gù dàng zhēn fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， suī rán yě bèi dǎ le gè qiān chuāng bǎi kǒng ， dàn bìng méi yǒu fēn bēng lí xī yī shuō 。
顿时，如雨打蕉荷，滚滚魔气被一击而破，可那石盾的坚固当真非同小可，虽然也被打了个千疮百孔，但并没有分崩离析一说。
Lin Xuan sighed. Such an enemy he had encountered before, but this guy was clearly much tougher. His moves were as fluid as flowing clouds.
yī jiù chù lì zài yuán chù 。
依旧矗立在原处。
With a gentle shake of his immortal sword, the myriad sword threads shot back like a whale sucking in water.
suí hòu mó guāng yī shǎn ， mì mì má má de shāng hén jiù xiāo shī bú jiàn 。
随后魔光一闪，密密麻麻的伤痕就消失不见。
They converged into a hundred-foot-long sword that emerged and fell towards the opponent.
“ yǒu yì si ， bù miè zhī tǐ ， bù ， sì hū hái yào gèng jiā lì hài yī xiē 。”
“有意思，不灭之体，不，似乎还要更加厉害一些。”
Lin Xuan knew well the power of the Nine Palaces Sword. He did not believe this Sovereign could withstand it.
lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì 。
林轩叹了口气。
Sure enough, the rock-like Sovereign reverted to his original form.
zhè yàng de dí rén ， zì jǐ yǐ qián ， yě céng jīng yù jiàn guò ， rán ér yǎn qián zhè jiā huo ， míng xiǎn hái yào nán chán xǔ duō ， dàn tā de biàn zhāo ， yì shì yǔ xíng yún liú shuǐ xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
这样的敌人，自己以前，也曾经遇见过，然而眼前这家伙，明显还要难缠许多，但他的变招，亦是与行云流水相差仿佛。
Then, he held two large axes in each hand and slashed down on the giant sword.
shǒu zhōng xiān jiàn zhǐ shì qīng qīng yī dǒu ， nà wàn qiān jiàn sī jiù rú zhǎng jīng xī shuǐ yì bān ， jī shè huí lái 。
手中仙剑只是轻轻一抖，那万千剑丝就如长鲸吸水一般，激射回来。
Boom!
wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， yī bǐng guāng méng méng ， bǎi yú zhàng zhǎng de jù jiàn fú xiàn rén chū 。
往中间一合，一柄光蒙蒙，百余丈长的巨剑浮现人出。
The loud impact brought about a result like tearing down a rotten wall. His massive axe, though formidable, was shattered by Lin Xuan's shocking strike. Even his arm suffered from the shock, showing countless cracks.
cháo zhe duì fāng zhǎn luò 。
朝着对方斩落。
A master can tell at a glance. After just a few rounds of combat, their relative strength became evident.
jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn de wēi lì ， lín xuān shí fēn qīng chǔ ， tā bù xiāng xìn ， duì fāng hái néng gòu dǎng zhù 。
九宫须臾剑的威力，林轩十分清楚，他不相信，对方还能够挡住。
"Hmph, merely the First Sovereign of Evil? That's all he is!"
guǒ rán ， nà yán shí mó zūn chóng xīn xiàn chū yuán xíng lái le 。
果然，那岩石魔尊重新现出原形来了。
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a smile. But he knew it was not surprising; no matter how famous this opponent might be, in the end, he was still under Great Void Lord's command.
suí hòu shǒu zhōng gè chí yī bǐng dà fǔ ， jiāo chā xiàng zhe jù jiàn zhǎn luò 。
随后手中各持一柄大斧，交叉向着巨剑斩落。
If even Lin Xuan could not handle him, staying here would only bring more suffering. Submitting and enduring less pain was better.
hōng ！
轰！
Lin Xuan's easy victory was unsurprising given his current strength, which had risen to the top tier of the Three Realms. The title of First Sovereign of Evil was nothing compared to him.
jù xiǎng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， liǎng zhě jiē chù ， dài lái de què shì cuī kū lā xiǔ de jié guǒ 。
巨响声传入耳朵，两者接触，带来的却是摧枯拉朽的结果。
What surprised Lin Xuan were the other two battlefields.
tā shǒu zhōng suǒ chí jù fǔ suī rán bù sú ， zài lín xuān jīng tiān yī jī zhī xià què cùn cùn duàn liè diào le 。
他手中所持巨斧虽然不俗，在林轩惊天一击之下却寸寸断裂掉了。
Little Butterfly was clearly dominant.
shèn zhì lián shǒu bì dōu shòu dào le bō jí ， biǎo miàn yǒu wú shù liè hén chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
甚至连手臂都受到了波及，表面有无数裂痕出现在了视线里。
Well, this girl is a Phantom Moon Moth. As an ancient insect that advanced through Tribulation, her strength naturally surpassed others at the same stage. Her innate talent lies in illusions, and her other powers are formidable as well. The Lizard Sovereign could not withstand it; he was played like a puppet on a string.
háng jia yī shēn shǒu jiù zhī yǒu méi yǒu 。
行家一伸手就知有没有。
What truly surprised Lin Xuan was Little Moon.
duǎn duǎn jǐ gè huí hé de jiāo shǒu ， shuāng fāng de qiáng ruò ， yǐ shì xiǎn yǎn yǐ jí 。
短短几个回合的交手，双方的强弱，已是显眼以极。
They say a day apart makes one see anew. Indeed, Lin Xuan already knew that Little Moon had advanced to the middle stage of Tribulation. But this small step in cultivation brought about a qualitative leap in strength.
“ hēng ， qū qū dì yī mó zūn ， bù guò rú cǐ ér yǐ ！”
“哼，区区第一魔尊，不过如此而已！”
The two-headed four-armed Sovereign could not withstand her at all. His initial worry was unnecessary; Little Moon's strength far surpassed his, almost overpowering him. The Sovereign now ran like a scared mouse!
lín xuān de zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū jǐ fēn xiào yì ， dàn xiǎng xiǎng yě bù xī qí 。
林轩的嘴角边露出几分笑意，但想想也不稀奇。
Lin Xuan was amazed but also relieved. Seeing is believing; Little Moon's cultivation methods in this life and the last were the same, showing how formidable Arhats had been.
bù guǎn duì fāng yǒu duō dà de míng qì ， guī gēn jié dǐ ， yě zhǐ shì xū wú mó jūn de shǒu xià ér yǐ 。
不管对方有多大的名气，归根结底，也只是虚无魔君的手下而已。
Lin Xuan reflected that back then, as a middle-stage Tribulation Sojourner, his strength was inferior to this girl.
ruò shì lián tā dōu wú kě nài hé ， lín xuān liú zài zhè lǐ yòu yǒu shén me yòng chǔ ， guāi guāi de shù shǒu jiù fù hái néng shǎo shòu xǔ duō kǔ chǔ 。
若是连他都无可奈何，林轩留在这里又有什么用处，乖乖的束手就缚还能少受许多苦楚。
PS: Phew, today has been busy. Finally done! (To be continued...)
"Lin Xuan, Lord of the Alliance, you truly are one with no fear. Venturing alone into this place shows that you do not regard us, the域外天魔, as an opponent."
The voice of the Rock City Lord buzzed in Lin Xuan's ears. The speaker was the rock-like figure in the middle.
