qióng kòu mò zhuī ！
穷寇莫追！
Do not pursue a desperate foe!
dàn nà yě yào kàn jù tǐ qíng xíng rú hé ， bǐ rú shuō cǐ shí cǐ kè ， zuì shì hé de ， biàn shì kuò dà zhàn guǒ ， liáng jī bù róng cuò guò ， ér lín xuān xiǎn rán shì shí fēn dǒng de bǎ wò jī huì de xiū xiān zhě 。
但那也要看具体情形如何，比如说此时此刻，最适合的，便是扩大战果，良机不容错过，而林轩显然是十分懂得把握机会的修仙者。
But that depends on the specific circumstances. In this case, the most opportune move was to expand their gains and seize the moment. Lin Xuan was clearly an adept at seizing opportunities.
suǒ yǐ tā méi yǒu bàn fēn chí yí ， jiāng xiān jiàn tú jì le chū qù 。
所以他没有半分迟疑，将仙剑图祭了出去。
So he hesitated not, casting out the Immortal Sword Diagram.
dùn shí xiān qǐ màn tiān de xīng fēng xuè yǔ ， xī lì de jiàn qì ， zòng héng bǎi hé ， zhǎ yǎn jiān ， jiù yòu yǒu shù míng mó zūn yǔn luò ， ér shèng xià de xīn dǎn jù liè ， bù jǐn bù gǎn tíng xià lái duì dí ， táo dé fǎn ér gèng jiā xùn sù le xiē 。
顿时掀起漫天的腥风血雨，犀利的剑气，纵横捭阖，眨眼间，就又有数名魔尊陨落，而剩下的心胆俱裂，不仅不敢停下来对敌，逃得反而更加迅速了些。
Instantly, a storm of blood and gore erupted, with sharp sword energy slicing through the air. Within moments, several Sovereign Demons fell, while the rest were too terrified to stop fighting; they ran even faster instead.
shì qì yǐ diē luò dào wú yǐ fù jiā de jìng dì 。
士气已跌落到无以复加的境地。
The morale had dropped to an unimaginable low.
mó zūn shàng qiě rú cǐ ， qí yú de yù wài tiān mó kě xiǎng ér zhī 。
魔尊尚且如此，其余的域外天魔可想而知。
Even more so for the Sovereign Demons, let alone the other域外天魔.
yuè ér yǔ xiǎo dié yě bú shì bái chī ， zhè yàng de pián yi nǎ ér yǒu kàn zhe bù jiǎn de dào lǐ ， liǎng gè yā tou tóng shí fā lì ， dùn shí yòu yǒu jǐ míng mó zūn yǔn luò zài le tā men de shǒu lǐ 。
月儿与小蝶也不是白痴，这样的便宜哪儿有看着不捡的道理，两个丫头同时发力，顿时又有几名魔尊陨落在了她们的手里。
Moon and Little Butterfly were not fools. They wouldn't pass up such a good opportunity. Both girls exerted their efforts simultaneously, causing several more Sovereign Demons to fall under their hands.
yī shí jiān cǎn jiào shēng bù jué yú ěr duǒ ， shù dǎo hú sūn sàn de chǎng miàn xiǎn de shì kě xiào dào jí chù 。
一时间惨叫声不绝于耳朵，树倒猢狲散的场面显得是可笑到极处。
The cries of pain filled the air incessantly, making the scene look absurdly comical as the monkeys scattered after the trees fell.
kàn shì qiáng dà de yù wài tiān mó ， zài xìn xīn bèi cuī huǐ hòu jiǎn zhí jiù yǔ mián yáng chà bu duō ， lín xuān yǔ yuè ér xiǎo dié zòng héng bǎi hé ， wú rén gǎn zhí yīng qí fēng ， nà xiē mó zūn hái suàn pǎo dé xùn sù ， kě pǔ tōng de yù wài tiān mó jiù méi yǒu zhè yàng hǎo de yùn qì le 。
看似强大的域外天魔，在信心被摧毁后简直就与绵羊差不多，林轩与月儿小蝶纵横捭阖，无人敢直缨其锋，那些魔尊还算跑得迅速，可普通的域外天魔就没有这样好的运气了。
These powerful域外天魔, once their confidence was shattered, were practically as harmless as sheep. Lin Xuan and Moon and Little Butterfly moved with ease, none daring to challenge them head-on. The Sovereign Demons still managed to run quickly, but ordinary域外天魔 didn't have such luck.
zhān zhe jiù sǐ ， zhuàng zhe jiù wáng 。
沾着就死，撞着就亡。
They died where they stood or fell from collisions.
lín xuān fàng chū de kě shì xiān tiān zhī wù ， jiàn qì suī duō ， dàn měi yī dào de wēi lì ， dōu shì wú yǐ lún bǐ ， nǎ ér shì dù jié yǐ xià de mó zūn kě yǐ dǐ dǎng dì ？
林轩放出的可是先天之物，剑气虽多，但每一道的威力，都是无以伦比，哪儿是渡劫以下的魔尊可以抵挡地？
What Lin Xuan released were先天之物, and though the sword energy was numerous, each one's power was unparalleled. How could lower-grade Sovereign Demons withstand them?
jiù zhè yàng shì rú pò zhú 。
就这样势如破竹。
Thus, their advance was unstoppable.
suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， duì fāng fǎn kàng dǐ dǎng yuè fā wú lì ， ér lín xuān yǐ jīng kàn jiàn le xiān dào méng xiū shì de zōng jì 。
随着时间的推移，对方反抗抵挡越发无力，而林轩已经看见了仙道盟修士的踪迹。
As time passed, the enemy's resistance weakened further. Lin Xuan had already spotted the traces of Immortal Dao Alliance cultivators.
cǐ xíng rú cǐ shùn lì ， nà xiē xiū xiān zhě men yě shì yì wài yǐ jí ， yí gè èr gè ， zì rán shì jié jìn le quán lì 。
此行如此顺利，那些修仙者们也是意外以极，一个二个，自然是竭尽了全力。
This success was beyond their expectations. Each and every one of them exerted all their strength.
yī shú xī de shēn yǐng yìng rù dào yǎn lián lǐ 。
一熟悉的身影映入到眼帘里。
A familiar figure entered his field of vision.
nà shì yī miào líng shào nǚ 。
那是一妙龄少女。
It was a young maiden with eyes full of wisdom. Her silver hair stood out even more.
rán ér yǎn móu zhōng què chōng mǎn le cāng sāng zhī yì ， yī tóu yín fā gèng shì rě yǎn yǐ jí 。
然而眼眸中却充满了沧桑之意，一头银发更是惹眼以极。
"Sister Senior!"
“ shī jiě 。”
“师姐。”
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a smile.
lín xuān de zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī xiào yì 。
林轩的嘴角边露出一丝笑意。
Years had passed, and Sister Senior’s cultivation had progressed. Although she was still in the Lesser Transcendence stage, her current strength was incomparable to before. Clearly, battling域外天魔 these years gave her some new insights.
duō nián guò qù ， shī jiě de xiū wèi yòu yǒu jìn zhǎn ， suī rán shì xiǎo dù jié qī ， dàn què jīn fēi xī bǐ 。 xiǎn rán zhè xiē nián jué zhàn yù wài tiān mó ， ràng tā yòu yǒu yī xiē lǐng wù 。
多年过去，师姐的修为又有进展，虽然是小渡劫期，但却今非昔比。显然这些年决战域外天魔，让她又有一些领悟。
This wasn't unusual; while dangerous, combat often brought unexpected opportunities when life hung by a thread.
zhè bù xī qí ， dòu fǎ suī rán wēi xiǎn ， dàn shēng sǐ yī xiàn zhōng ， yuán běn jiù shì zuì róng yì huò dé jī yuán 。
这不稀奇，斗法虽然危险，但生死一线中，原本就是最容易获得机缘。
Lin Xuan felt genuinely happy and hoped that his senior brother and sister could break through their barriers and enter the true Transcendence stage.
lín xuān yóu zhōng de gǎn dào huān xǐ ， shèn zhì xī wàng shī xiōng shī jiě néng gòu dǎ pò píng jǐng ， mài rù zhēn zhèng de dù jié qī 。
林轩由衷的感到欢喜，甚至希望师兄师姐能够打破瓶颈，迈入真正的渡劫期。
Of course, such odds were minuscule.
dāng rán ， nà yàng de jī lǜ shì jí xiǎo dì 。
当然，那样的几率是极小地。
But in the wondrous and bizarre world of cultivation, who could say it was impossible?
dàn xiū xiān jiè guāng guài lù lí ， yòu yǒu shuí gǎn shuō zhè yí dìng shì bù kě néng dì 。
但修仙界光怪陆离，又有谁敢说这一定是不可能地。
"Junior Brother Lin!"
“ lín shī dì ！”
“林师弟！”
The silver-eyed maiden's joy was evident upon seeing him.
kàn jiàn lín xuān ， yín tóng shào nǚ yě shì jí wéi huān xǐ 。
看见林轩，银瞳少女也是极为欢喜。
To be honest, when she heard that Lin Xuan had ventured alone to the域外天魔 headquarters, her heart raced with worry. She knew his strength well, but the enemy wasn't made of clay or paper; this move seemed a bit rash.
píng xīn lái shuō 。 dé zhī lín xuān dān qiāng dú mǎ ， qián wǎng yù wài tiān mó de zǒng duò ， yín tóng shào nǚ xīn zhōng yě shì qī shàng bā xià de 。
平心来说。得知林轩单枪独马，前往域外天魔的总舵，银瞳少女心中也是七上八下的。
But she kept these concerns hidden. Together with the Black Phoenix Demoness, she advocated for an offensive, hoping to rescue Lin Xuan from danger.
shī dì de shí lì ， tā zì rán xīn zhōng qīng chǔ ， dàn dí rén bìng fēi ní sù zhǐ hú ， zhè me zuò ， duō shǎo yǒu diǎn mào shī tài guò 。
师弟的实力，她自然心中清楚，但敌人并非泥塑纸糊，这么做，多少有点冒失太过。
Yet, they were shocked when they arrived.
dāng rán ， zhè fān dān xīn ， tā kě shì fēn háo yě bú huì xiǎn lù 。
当然，这番担心，她可是分毫也不会显露。
This success was beyond their wildest dreams. But without seeing Junior Brother's whereabouts, her heart remained heavy until now.
yǔ hēi fèng yāo nǚ yì qǐ 。 lì zhǔ chū bīng ， xī wàng néng gòu yuán jiù lín xuān yú shuǐ huǒ 。
与黑凤妖女一起。力主出兵，希望能够援救林轩于水火。
...
jié guǒ què shì dà jīng shī sè 。
结果却是大惊失色。
The battle raged on for a full night.
cǐ xíng zhī shùn lì zuò mèng dōu nán yǐ qǐ jí 。
此行之顺利做梦都难以企及。
Explosive sounds echoed everywhere; it wasn't combat but a one-sided pursuit and slaughter.
dàn méi yǒu kàn jiàn shī dì de zōng jì ， xīn zhōng de yī kuài dà shí tou yī jiù wú fǎ luò dì 。
但没有看见师弟的踪迹，心中的一块大石头依旧无法落地。
Nearly a million域外天魔 disintegrated, with half of them falling here. The victory was unprecedentedly glorious, while the cost to the Immortal Dao Alliance was negligible.
rú jīn cái zǒng suàn sōng le kǒu qì 。
如今才总算松了口气。
A great triumph!
……
……
Such a satisfying victory hadn't been seen in all three realms since the invasion of域外天魔.
dà zhàn chí xù le zhěng zhěng yī yè de shí jiān 。
大战持续了整整一夜的时间。
The crisis had passed!
hōng lōng lóng bào liè de shēng yīn bù duàn ， shuō shì dòu fǎ 。 qí shí gēn běn jiù shì yī biān dǎo de zhuī shā 。
轰隆隆爆裂的声音不断，说是斗法。其实根本就是一边倒的追杀。
Celebration filled Cloud Concealment Mountain.
jìn bǎi wàn yù wài tiān mó fēn bēng lí xī ， yǒu jiāng jìn bàn shù dōu yǔn luò zài le zhè lǐ ， zhàn guǒ kě yǐ shuō huī huáng yǐ jí ， ér yǔ zhī xiāng bǐ 。 xiān dào méng wèi cǐ suǒ fù chū de dài jià jī hū kě yǐ hū lüè bù jì 。
近百万域外天魔分崩离析，有将近半数都陨落在了这里，战果可以说辉煌以极，而与之相比。仙道盟为此所付出的代价几乎可以忽略不计。
Several years ago, at the天河谷 battle, the Immortal Dao Alliance suffered heavy losses. With five against one, Black Bear King and Eastern Prosperity Celestial Emperor fell there.
dà jié ！
大捷！
For these years, while the Cloud Concealment Sect remained unbroken, morale was low. No one knew what would come next; no one had confidence in holding out.
ér zhè yàng yī cháng hān chàng lín lí de shèng lì ， bié shuō xiān dào méng bù céng yù jiàn guò ， jiù shì fàng yǎn sān jiè 。 zì cóng yù wài tiān mó qīn rù yǐ lái ， nà yě shì qū zhǐ kě shǔ 。
而这样一场酣畅淋漓的胜利，别说仙道盟不曾遇见过，就是放眼三界。自从域外天魔侵入以来，那也是屈指可数。
Most of Dragon Realm was now under the control of域外天魔. Would their fate be to fall or become demon puppets?
wēi jī jiě chú ！
危机解除！
Cultivation should have been a life of freedom and joy, but now everyone felt their destiny as precarious as that of ordinary people.
zhěng gè yún yǐn shān dōu xiàn rù le yī piàn huān téng de qì fēn zhī zhōng 。
整个云隐山都陷入了一片欢腾的气氛之中。
They couldn't control it.
shù nián qián tiān hé gǔ yī yì ， xiān dào méng sǔn bīng zhé jiàng ， dà bài kuī shū ， yǐ wǔ dí yī ， hēi xióng wáng yǔ dōng yù xiān huáng què xiān hòu yǔn luò yú nà lǐ 。
数年前天河谷一役，仙道盟损兵折将，大败亏输，以五敌一，黑熊王与东裕仙皇却先后陨落于那里。
Some cultivators even suffered from mental breakdowns.
zhè xiē nián kùn shǒu yún yǐn zōng ， suī rán yì zhí méi yǒu bèi gōng pò ， dàn shì qì yě shì hěn dī luò ， yīn wèi dà jiā bù zhī dào jiē xià lái huì rú hé ， méi yǒu rén yǒu xìn xīn ， néng gòu yì zhí shǒu zhù 。
这些年困守云隐宗，虽然一直没有被攻破，但士气也是很低落，因为大家不知道接下来会如何，没有人有信心，能够一直守住。
Though not many, this was ominous.
nài lóng jiè rú jīn dà bù fèn dōu luò rù le yù wài tiān mó zhī shǒu ， nán dào shuō ， děng dài zì jǐ zhè xiē rén de jié guǒ ， shì yào me yǔn luò ， yào me lún wèi mó huà kuǐ lěi me ？
鼐龙界如今大部分都落入了域外天魔之手，难道说，等待自己这些人的结果，是要么陨落，要么沦为魔化傀儡么？
If Lin Xuan had returned later, the Cloud Concealment Sect and Immortal Dao Alliance might no longer exist.
xiū xiān běn wèi xiāo yáo kuài huó ， rán ér rú jīn ， dà jiā què gǎn jué zì jǐ de mìng yùn yǔ fán rén chà bu duō 。
修仙本为逍遥快活，然而如今，大家却感觉自己的命运与凡人差不多。
But there are no "ifs" in the world. With Lin Xuan's return and his exceptional efforts, he single-handedly entered Dragon Den and killed that Demon Rock City Lord.
zì jǐ méi yǒu bàn fǎ zhǎng wò 。
自己没有办法掌握。
The other Sovereign Demons were decimated by him and Little Butterfly Moon, like chopping vegetables.
zhè xiē tiān ， shèn zhì yǒu jīng shén bēng kuì de xiū xiān zhě 。
这些天，甚至有精神崩溃的修仙者。
Thanks to Lin Xuan, the Immortal Dao Alliance achieved unprecedented success, making everyone's faces light up with joy.
suī rán bù duō ， dàn jué bú shì shén me hǎo zhào tou 。
虽然不多，但觉不是什么好兆头。
A grand feast was held. Although cultivators could practice abstinence, such a joyful occasion couldn't be missed.
lín xuān ruò zài wǎn xiē nián huí lái ， yún yǐn zōng yǔ xiān dào méng shì fǒu hái cún zài ， kǒng pà zhēn bù tài hǎo shuō 。
林轩若再晚些年回来，云隐宗与仙道盟是否还存在，恐怕真不太好说。
At the banquet, Lin Xuan naturally drew all attention!
rán ér shì shàng de shì qíng méi yǒu rú guǒ ， lín xuān huí lái le ， ér qiě huán gěi lì dào jí chù ， yí gè rén chuǎng rù lóng tán hǔ xué zhī zhōng ， zǎi le nà mó yán chéng zhǔ 。
然而世上的事情没有如果，林轩回来了，而且还给力到极处，一个人闯入龙潭虎穴之中，宰了那魔岩城主。
Any grudges were forgotten after this battle; even the Black Phoenix Demoness and Immortal Wan Xiao were deeply impressed by him.
zhì yú qí tā de mó zūn ， gèng shì bèi tā dài zhe xiǎo dié yuè ér ， rú kǎn guā qiè cài ， miè shā le jìn bàn 。
至于其他的魔尊，更是被他带着小蝶月儿，如砍瓜切菜，灭杀了近半。
The world of cultivation is ruled by strength.
tuō lín xuān de fú ， xiān dào méng qǔ dé le lìng rén kōng qián de shèng lì ， yě jiù nán guài měi gè rén de biǎo qíng dōu huān xǐ yǐ jí 。
托林轩的福，仙道盟取得了令人空前的胜利，也就难怪每个人的表情都欢喜以极。
Moon's beauty also captured everyone's attention. Though her appearance couldn't match that of her past life, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.
jiē xià lái dà bǎi yàn xí ， xiū xiān zhě suī kě bì gǔ ， dàn zhè yàng de xǐ shì ， zěn me kě néng bù hǎo hǎo qìng zhù ？
接下来大摆宴席，修仙者虽可辟谷，但这样的喜事，怎么可能不好好庆祝？
Though there weren't many ugly women in the cultivation realm, most had some charm.
yàn xí shàng tuī bēi huàn zhǎn ， lín xuān zì rán zuì yǐn rén zhǔ mù ！
宴席上推杯换盏，林轩自然最引人瞩目！
Exquisite beauties were easy to find.
ruò shì xiān qián hái yǒu shén me xián xì ， zhè yī zhàn zhī hòu ， hēi fèng yāo nǚ ， wàn xiǎo xiān jūn dōu duì tā xīn fú kǒu fú yǐ jí 。
若是先前还有什么嫌隙，这一战之后，黑凤妖女，万晓仙君都对他心服口服以极。
But Little Butterfly’s striking presence was rare indeed… or perhaps they would never meet in their lifetimes…
xiū xiān jiè bì jìng shì qiáng zhě wèi zūn dì 。
修仙界毕竟是强者为尊地。
Immortal Wan Xiao, with his broadest experience, looked surprised.
yuè ér de měi lì yě shì xī yǐn le quán chǎng de guān zhù ， rú jīn de tā ， róng mào suī rán hái méi yǒu bàn fǎ yǔ qián shì xiāng bǐ ， dàn yì shì měi dé bù kě sī yì 。
月儿的美丽也是吸引了全场的关注，如今的她，容貌虽然还没有办法与前世相比，但亦是美得不可思议。
This woman called Moon rivaled Arhats of old, though she fell short, her beauty was astonishing. She even resembled the Arhat King from back then.
suī shuō xiū xiān jiè cóng lái bù fá měi nǚ ， nǚ xìng xiū xiān zhě jiù hěn shǎo zhǎng dé chǒu dì 。
虽说修仙界从来不乏美女，女性修仙者就很少长得丑地。
Everyone envied how she adored Lin Xuan like a little bird.
duō shǎo dōu yǒu jǐ fēn zī sè 。
多少都有几分姿色。
Besides Little Butterfly, another woman stood by Lin Xuan.
jué sè měi nǚ yě shì hěn róng yì jiù yù jiàn dì 。
绝色美女也是很容易就遇见地。
Little Butterfly!
dàn xiàng yuè ér zhè yàng duó mù ， hái shì shǎo jiàn yǐ jí …… huò zhě shuō dà jiā zhè bèi zi ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu shén me jī huì xiāng yù 。
但像月儿这样夺目，还是少见以极……或者说大家这辈子，根本就没有什么机会相遇。
Though the name sounded ordinary, no one dared to underestimate her. It wasn't just because of her beauty; her cultivation was also at the late Transcendence stage.
wàn xiǎo xiān jūn kě yǐ shuō shì jiàn shí zuì wèi guǎng bó ， cǐ shí liǎn shàng yě mǎn shì chī jīng zhī sè 。
万晓仙君可以说是见识最为广博，此时脸上也满是吃惊之色。
Indeed, though she didn't reveal her strength and her aura was faint, it was undoubtedly late Transcendence.
yǎn qián zhè jiào yuè ér de nǚ zǐ ， zhí zhuī dāng nián de ā xiū luó ， suī rán yǒu suǒ bù jí ， dàn yì shì jīng rén de měi lì ， zhǎng dé shèn zhì yǔ dāng nián de ā xiū luó wáng ， yǐn yǐn yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì 。
眼前这叫月儿的女子，直追当年的阿修罗，虽然有所不及，但亦是惊人的美丽，长得甚至与当年的阿修罗王，隐隐有几分相似。
With the emergence of域外天魔, top-tier cultivators in the three realms were no longer elusive. But reaching late Transcendence was rare; calling them a rarity wouldn't be wrong.
kàn tā duì lín xuān xiǎo niǎo yī rén de yàng zi ， rén rén dōu xiàn mù yǐ jí 。
看她对林轩小鸟依人的样子，人人都羡慕以极。
Each late Transcendence cultivator was well-known.
ér chú le yuè ér zhī wài ， lín xuān shēn biān hái duō chū le yī nǚ zǐ 。
而除了月儿之外，林轩身边还多出了一女子。
Why had this woman named Little Butterfly never been seen before?
xiǎo dié ！
小蝶！
Everyone's hearts were filled with questions. (To be continued...)
Do not pursue a desperate foe!
But that depends on the specific circumstances. In this case, the most opportune move was to expand their gains and seize the moment. Lin Xuan was clearly an adept at seizing opportunities.
So he hesitated not, casting out the Immortal Sword Diagram.

It was a young maiden with eyes full of wisdom. Her silver hair stood out even more.
