恶人自有恶人磨，这位折翼仙子的实力诡异莫测，在场之人，无不大感戒惧，便是林轩，隐隐也有几分忌惮。(.23[x].
Evil men are ground down by other evil men, and this folded-wing fairy's strength was unpredictable. Everyone present felt a deep sense of caution, even Lin Xuan had some reservations.
yě wéi yǒu nài lóng ， cái gǎn zhè yàng de yán xiào wú jì ， líng jiè dì yī huā huā gōng zi de měi yù ， guǒ rán shì shèng míng wú xū 。
也唯有鼐龙，才敢这样的言笑无忌，灵界第一花花公子的美誉，果然是盛名无虚。
Only Nai Long dared to speak so freely without restraint. The reputation of the First Lothario of the Spirit Realm was indeed well-deserved.
lín xuān xīn zhōng pèi fú yǐ jí 。
林轩心中佩服以极。
Lin Xuan was extremely impressed by him.
ér yǒu le gāng cái de xiǎo chā qǔ ， jiē xià lái de guò chéng yě shì yī qiè shùn lì ， zài yě méi yǒu mó zūn gǎn xīn cún jiǎo xìng ， wán shén me bǎ xì 。
而有了刚才的小插曲，接下来的过程也是一切顺利，再也没有魔尊敢心存侥幸，玩什么把戏。
With the small incident earlier, the process went smoothly afterward. No more demon lords dared to take risks or play tricks. Only demon lords could plant Illusory Heart Lotus Fire for Qin Yan. With these old monsters around, it wasn't hard to control the rest of the域外天魔 (Exterior Heaven Demons).
ér zhǐ yǒu mó zūn jí bié de cún zài ， qín yán cái zhòng xià huàn xīn lián huǒ ， yǒu zhè xiē lǎo guài wù ， qí yú de yù wài tiān mó ， yě jiù bù nán tǒng yù le 。
而只有魔尊级别的存在，秦妍才种下幻心莲火，有这些老怪物，其余的域外天魔，也就不难统御了。
This battle against Voidness was a resounding victory. However, Lin Xuan felt he hadn't gained much from it and seemed more like he was doing Qin Yan's bidding.
cǐ zhàn xū wú fú zhū ， kě wèi shì dà huò quán shèng ， rán ér zěn me kàn ， zì jǐ sì hū yě méi yǒu zhàn dào zuì dà de hǎo chù ， dào gèng xiàng shì wèi qín yán zuò jià yī le 。
此战虚无伏诛，可谓是大获全胜，然而怎么看，自己似乎也没有占到最大的好处，倒更像是为秦妍做嫁衣了。
Although there was an inexplicable sentiment between them, Lin Xuan wasn't comfortable with the arrangement. He wouldn't give up his rights just because she was beautiful.
suī shuō liǎng rén jiān yǒu nà mò míng de qíng sù ， dàn lín xuān xīn zhōng yì shì jí bù shū fú ， tā kě bù huì yīn wèi duì fāng shì měi nǚ ， jiù fàng qì zì jǐ gāi yǒu de quán yì 。
虽说两人间有那莫名的情愫，但林轩心中亦是极不舒服，他可不会因为对方是美女，就放弃自己该有的权益。
For now, he didn't rush to act. Later, he would have a proper talk with her.
bù guò xiàn zài yě bù máng zhe fā zuò ， shāo hòu tā zì rán huì zhǎo qín yán hǎo hǎo tán shàng yī tán de 。
不过现在也不忙着发作，稍后他自然会找秦妍好好谈上一谈的。
Lin Xuan remained calm, while Nai Long's true appearance wore a playful expression. Despite their different personalities, both were only interested in taking advantage and not losing anything.
lín xuān bù dòng shēng sè ， nài lóng zhēn rén de liǎn shàng zé dài zhe xì xuè ， zhè duì xiōng dì ， xìng gé suī rán jié rán bù tóng ， rán ér dōu shì zhǐ zhàn pián yí bù chī kuī de rén wù 。
林轩不动声色，鼐龙真人的脸上则带着戏谑，这对兄弟，性格虽然截然不同，然而都是只占便宜不吃亏的人物。
Unless Qin Yan genuinely wanted to cooperate, trying to steal from the tiger's mouth wouldn't be easy.
chú fēi qín yán shì zhēn xīn yǔ tā men hé zuò ， fǒu zé xiǎng yào hǔ kǒu duó shí ， nǎ ér yǒu nà me róng yì ？
除非秦妍是真心与他们合作，否则想要虎口夺食，哪儿有那么容易？
...
……
……
At the same time, in the Cold Moon Realm.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， guǎng hán jiè 。
与此同时，广寒界。
This was where True Immortal Cold Moon resided. Apart from him, figures like Yellow Dragon True Immortal and Heavenly Extinction Fairy were also renowned throughout the Spirit Realm.
zhè lǐ shì guǎng hán zhēn rén de jū suǒ ， chú cǐ yǐ wài ， xiàng huáng lóng zhēn rén ， tiān jué xiān zi děng zài líng jiè nà dōu shì hè hè yǒu míng de 。
这里是广寒真人的居所，除此以外，像黄龙真人，天绝仙子等在灵界那都是赫赫有名的。
Thus, the overall strength of the Cold Moon Realm not only matched but perhaps even slightly surpassed Nai Long's realm.
gù ér guǎng hán jiè de zhěng tǐ shí lì ， bù jǐn bù bǐ nài lóng jiè xùn sè ， kě yǐ shuō ， hái yào lüè shèng yī chóu 。
故而广寒界的整体实力，不仅不比鼐龙界逊色，可以说，还要略胜一筹。
The Exterior Heaven Demons were well aware of this situation and sent countless powerful beings. The leader was a fellow known as the Eel Spirit King, who was at the same level as Voidness Demon Lord, if not more troublesome.
zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng ， yù wài tiān mó zì rán qīng chǔ ， yú shì tā men yě shì jiàng lín xià le qiáng zhě wú shù ， wéi shǒu de ， nǎi shì yí gè bèi chēng wéi yáo líng wáng de jiā huo 。
这种情况，域外天魔自然清楚，于是他们也是降临下了强者无数，为首的，乃是一个被称为鰩灵王的家伙。
Cold Moon True Immortal had fought him several times but only managed to maintain an inconclusive stalemate.
zhè jiā huo yǔ xū wú mó jūn nǎi shì yí gè děng jí ， shèn zhì kě yǐ shuō gèng jiā nán chán yī xiē 。
这家伙与虚无魔君乃是一个等级，甚至可以说更加难缠一些。
The Cold Moon Realm was in a deadlock, and no one knew that something strange was happening in a place called Heavenly Essence Sea within it.
guǎng hán zhēn rén yǔ tā dà zhàn le shù cì 。 yě bù guò wéi chí yí gè bù shèng bù bài de jú miàn ér yǐ 。
广寒真人与他大战了数次。也不过维持一个不胜不败的局面而已。
As a famous forbidden area of the Cold Moon Realm, few people ventured there. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't dare, nor would even the most vicious Exterior Heaven Demons after losing several groups of their members inexplicably.
guǎng hán jiè xiàn rù le jiāng chí ， ér wú rén zhī dào de shì ， cǐ jiè yí gè jiào tiān yuán hǎi de dì fāng ， rú jīn zhèng fā shēng zhe biàn yì 。
广寒界陷入了僵持，而无人知道的是，此界一个叫天元海的地方，如今正发生着变异。
However, exceptions existed. At noon that day, a deafening explosion echoed from the surface of Heavenly Essence Sea, accompanied by violent ripples.
zuò wéi guǎng hán jiè yǒu míng de jìn dì ， píng shí shì shǎo yǒu rén wèn jīn dì ， bié shuō pǔ tōng de xiū xiān zhě ， jiù suàn shì nà xiē qióng xiōng jí è de yù wài tiān mó ， zài zhè ér mò míng qí miào de sǔn shī le shù bō rén shǒu hòu ， yě xué guāi bù lái le 。
作为广寒界有名的禁地，平时是少有人问津地，别说普通的修仙者，就算是那些穷凶极恶的域外天魔，在这儿莫名其妙的损失了数波人手后，也学乖不来了。
This was just the beginning. As time passed, the explosions and ripples became more terrifying, almost lowering the nearby sea level by over a hundred feet.
rán ér fán shì dōu yǒu lì wài ， zhè tiān zhèng wǔ 。 tiān yuán hǎi de hǎi miàn zhī shàng ， yī zhèn jīng tiān dòng dì de bào liè shēng chuán chū ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì jù liè bō dòng gǔn gǔn ér lái 。
然而凡事都有例外，这天正午。天元海的海面之上，一阵惊天动地的爆裂声传出，与之伴随的是剧烈波动滚滚而来。
The power of nature itself was no different.
qiě zhè jǐn jǐn shì kāi shǐ ér yǐ ， suí zhe shí jiān de tuī yí ， nà bào liè shēng hé bō dòng yuè fā de kǒng bù wú bǐ ， jī hū jiāng fù jìn hǎi miàn píng kōng yā dī le bǎi yú zhàng qù 。
且这仅仅是开始而已，随着时间的推移，那爆裂声和波动越发的恐怖无比，几乎将附近海面凭空压低了百余丈去。
In Lin Xuan's eyes, ordinary Golden Transformation Realm cultivators might not be formidable, but their every move could unleash incomprehensible divine powers.
tiān dì zhī wēi ， yě bù guò rú cǐ 。
天地之威，也不过如此。
Amidst the bursts of light and explosions, three Exterior Heaven Demons were attacking a human cultivator.
pǔ tōng dù jié qī qiáng zhě ， zài lín xuān kàn lái ， huò xǔ bù suàn shén me 。 dàn jǔ shǒu tóu zú ， què shí yǒu guǐ shén mò cè de dà shén tōng 。
普通渡劫期强者，在林轩看来，或许不算什么。但举手投足，确实有鬼神莫测的大神通。
No, it wasn't a pure human. There was an aura of beastly presence on him, and he was incredibly powerful.
zài nà yī tuán tuán bào liè guāng xiá zhōng ， hè rán yǒu sān míng yù wài tiān mó ， zhèng wéi gōng yī rén lèi xiū xiān zhě 。
在那一团团爆裂光霞中，赫然有三名域外天魔，正围攻一人类修仙者。
Externally, he appeared to be a slightly plump old man with a gentle face. However, his expression was stern at the moment. Golden scales grew on his cheeks and arms, and he had horns atop his head. His eyes resembled dragon's eyes more than human ones.
dà jiā kě yǐ zài wēi xìn zhōng sōu suǒ “ bǎi liàn chéng xiān huàn yǔ ”。 huò zhě “hchy1982” jiù tiān jiā huàn yǔ de wēi xìn le
大家可以在薇信中搜索“百炼成仙幻雨”。或者“hchy1982”就添加幻雨的薇信了
Half-dragon body!
bú duì ， bú shì chún zhèng de rén lèi xiū shì ， cǐ rén de shēn shàng ， yǐn yǐn dài yǒu yāo zú de qì xī 。 qiáng dà yǐ jí 。
不对，不是纯正的人类修士，此人的身上，隐隐带有妖族的气息。强大以极。
And his spiritual pressure was 100% late-stage Golden Transformation Realm.
cóng wài biǎo shàng kàn ， nà shì yī shēn cái lüè yǒu xiē ǎi pàng de lǎo zhě ， miàn róng wēn hé 。 rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， liǎn shàng què dài zhe lǐn rán zhī sè ， tā de liǎn jiá ， shǒu bì ， jū rán dōu yǒu jīn càn càn de lín piàn shēng zhǎng ér chū ， tóu shàng hái yǒu yī duì jī jiǎo 。
从外表上看，那是一身材略有些矮胖的老者，面容温和。然而此时此刻，脸上却带着凛然之色，他的脸颊，手臂，居然都有金灿灿的鳞片生长而出，头上还有一对犄角。
His identity was clear in the Cold Moon Realm—a renowned powerhouse.
yǎn jīng yě biàn dé yǔ rén bù tóng ， fǎn ér yǔ chuán shuō zhōng de lóng jīng pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。
眼睛也变得与人不同，反而与传说中的龙睛颇有几分相似之处。
Yellow Dragon True Immortal!
bàn lóng zhī tǐ ！
半龙之体！
He was a frequent guest at Cold Moon True Immortal's place, and their relationship was close. Why would he be here, looking so disheveled?
ér qiě nà líng yā shì bǎi fēn zhī bǎi de dù jié hòu qī 。
而且那灵压是百分之百的渡劫后期。
No one knew that Yellow Dragon True Immortal was in dire straits, being besieged by three large and menacing Exterior Heaven Demons.
qí shēn fèn yǐ hū zhī yù chū ， zài guǎng hán jiè yì suàn yǒu míng de qiáng zhě 。
其身份已呼之欲出，在广寒界亦算有名的强者。
Each of the demons had a distinct appearance. The one on the left had long ears, green eyes, and protruding fangs. His body was covered with blood-red scales, exuding an arrogant aura.
huáng lóng zhēn rén ！
黄龙真人！
The one on the right looked even more peculiar. At first glance, he seemed to be a beast, but his deep demonic aura revealed his origin. His appearance... well, it resembled a giant squid, much larger than normal, with heads and tentacles over a thousand feet long, comparable in size to a small mountain.
zhè wèi kě shì guǎng hán zhēn rén de zuò shàng kè ， bǐ cǐ xiāng jiāo yě suàn mò nì le ， tā zěn me huì zài cǐ chù ， ér qiě xíng róng hái rú cǐ láng bèi ne ？
这位可是广寒真人的座上客，彼此相交也算莫逆了，他怎么会在此处，而且形容还如此狼狈呢？
On its forehead was a ghost face with faint demonic patterns.
méi yǒu rén xiǎo de ， cǐ kè huáng lóng zhēn rén de chǔ jìng bù miào dào jí chù ， zhèng bèi sān míng tǐ xíng páng dà zhēng níng de yù wài tiān mó wéi gōng 。
没有人晓得，此刻黄龙真人的处境不妙到极处，正被三名体形庞大狰狞的域外天魔围攻。
The last demon was actually a huge tree, but its leaves were shaped like centipedes. Just looking at it was uncomfortable, let alone fighting against him.
nà sān míng tiān mó ， měi yí gè de xíng mào ， dōu shì jiǒng rán bù tóng 。
那三名天魔，每一个的形貌，都是迥然不同。
Despite their different appearances, the three demons worked seamlessly together, using attack techniques unlike ordinary cultivators. With rampant energy, Yellow Dragon True Immortal, despite showing his half-dragon form, struggled to defend himself.
zuǒ biān yí gè ， zhǎng ěr bì mù ， zuǐ biān de liáo yá xiàng wài tū chū ， yǎn jīng zuò xuè hóng sè ， hún shēn shàng xià ， yě bèi xuè hóng de lín piàn bāo guǒ ， hún shēn yǐn yǐn yǒu jié ào de qì xī sàn fà ér chū 。
左边一个，长耳碧目，嘴边的獠牙向外突出，眼睛做血红色，浑身上下，也被血红的鳞片包裹，浑身隐隐有桀骜的气息散发而出。
Blood splattered everywhere, and both sides were badly injured.
yòu biān de yí gè ， zhǎng dé gèng shì qí tè ， chū yī kàn ， hái yǐ wéi shì yāo zú ， dàn hún shēn nà shēn suì de mó qì ， jiāng tā de lái lì biǎo qīng chǔ ， qí wài mào …… zěn me shuō ne ， yǔ hǎi zhōng de zhāng yú xiāng chà fǎng fú ， qiě dà dé lí pǔ ， nǎo dài jiā chù shǒu qiān zhàng yǒu yú ， tǐ jī zú yǐ yǔ yī zuò xiǎo shān xiāng bǐ 。
右边的一个，长得更是奇特，初一看，还以为是妖族，但浑身那深邃的魔气，将他的来历表清楚，其外貌……怎么说呢，与海中的章鱼相差仿佛，且大得离谱，脑袋加触手千丈有余，体积足以与一座小山相比。
But the three Exterior Heaven Demons ignored them, laughing as their injuries healed continuously.
ér zài tā de é tóu zhèng zhōng ， yǒu yī zhāng guǐ liǎn ， shàng miàn de mó wén ruò yǐn ruò xiàn 。
而在它的额头正中，有一张鬼脸，上面的魔纹若隐若现。
Immortal Body!
zhì yú zuì hòu yī míng yù wài tiān mó ， jū rán shì yī kē dà shù ， rán ér tā de yè zi ， jū rán shì wú gōng xíng zhuàng de ， bié shuō yǔ qí dòu fǎ le ， guāng shì kàn shàng yī yǎn ， jiù ràng rén jí bù shū fú 。
至于最后一名域外天魔，居然是一棵大树，然而它的叶子，居然是蜈蚣形状的，别说与其斗法了，光是看上一眼，就让人极不舒服。
Seeing this, Cold Moon True Immortal's expression was extremely ugly. Dragging it out would be disadvantageous for him. He dashed left and right but couldn't break free. In his panic, he received a palm strike from the green-eyed demon lord, spewing blood. If not for the dragon scales on his chest blocking most of the attack, he might have fallen here.
ér zhè sān míng yù wài tiān mó ， xíng mào suī rán jiǒng yì ， pèi hé què shì mò qì wú bǐ ， gōng jī de fǎ bǎo tào lù ， gèng yǔ xún cháng xiū shì dà bù xiāng tóng ， bàn suí zhe kuáng bào de qì xī ， huáng lóng zhēn rén suī rán xiǎn lù chū le bàn lóng zhī tǐ ， què yě shì pí yú yìng fù ér yǐ 。
而这三名域外天魔，形貌虽然迥异，配合却是默契无比，攻击的法宝套路，更与寻常修士大不相同，伴随着狂暴的气息，黄龙真人虽然显露出了半龙之体，却也是疲于应付而已。
"Hahaha, everyone, put in more effort. This old Yellow Dragon won't last much longer. He's a late-stage Golden Transformation Realm cultivator; devouring his essence will be beneficial."
xiān xuè fēi jiàn ér chū ， hěn kuài shuāng fāng dōu shì biàn tǐ lín shāng le 。
鲜血飞溅而出，很快双方都是遍体鳞伤了。
"What strong cultivator? He doesn't seem so impressive to me."
dàn nà sān míng yù wài tiān mó què shì ruò wú dǔ ， gā gā de guài xiào shēng zhōng ， shāng shì jū rán zài bù tíng de huī fù 。
但那三名域外天魔却视若无睹，嘎嘎的怪笑声中，伤势居然在不停的恢复。
"Why did he overextend himself? How about we extract his soul and refine it?"
bù miè zhī tǐ ！
不灭之体！
"That's a good idea."
zhè yí mù luò zài yǎn lǐ ， huáng lóng zhēn rén de biǎo qíng nán kàn yǐ jí 。
这一幕落在眼里，黄龙真人的表情难看以极。
...
tuō yán xià qù duì zì jǐ bù lì ， tā zuǒ chōng yòu tū ， rán ér bù jǐn méi néng duó lù ， huáng jí zhī xià fǎn ér āi le nà zhǎng ěr bì mù dì mó zūn yī zhǎng ， kǒu zhōng xiān xuè fēi jiàn ér chū ， ruò bú shì xiōng kǒu de lóng lín dǎng xià le dà bàn wēi lì ， zhè yī xià shuō bù dìng jiù huì ràng tā yǔn luò yú cǐ 。
拖延下去对自己不利，他左冲右突，然而不仅没能夺路，惶急之下反而挨了那长耳碧目的魔尊一掌，口中鲜血飞溅而出，若不是胸口的龙鳞挡下了大半威力，这一下说不定就会让他陨落于此。
The Exterior Heaven Demons' playful voices echoed, making Cold Moon True Immortal seem like their prey. This also served to unsettle him.
“ hā hā ， dà jiā zài jiā yī bǎ lì ， zhè huáng lóng lǎo ér chēng bù liǎo duō jiǔ le ， qí kě shì dù jié hòu qī de qiáng zhě ， jiāng qí yuán yīng tūn shì le duì wǒ men dà yǒu hǎo chù 。”
“哈哈，大家再加一把力，这黄龙老儿撑不了多久了，其可是渡劫后期的强者，将其元婴吞噬了对我们大有好处。”
Would Yellow Dragon True Immortal fall for this?
“ shén me qiáng zhě ， wǒ kàn yě bù guò rú cǐ ér yǐ 。”
“什么强者，我看也不过如此而已。”
Perhaps he was aware of the trick but couldn't do anything now.
“ shuí ràng tā chěng qiáng dì ， yī huì er wǒ men jiāng tā chōu hún liàn pò rú hé ？”
“谁让他逞强地，一会儿我们将他抽魂炼魄如何？”
Blood spewed from his mouth nonstop, and he was about to collapse when something unexpected happened.
“ bù cuò ， zhè zhēn shì yí gè hǎo zhǔ yì 。”
“不错，这真是一个好主意。”
Boom!
……
……
A thunderous sound echoed as the seawater suddenly turned black. Dark like ink, it emitted a sweet scent.
yù wài tiān mó men xì xuè de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ lǐ ， fǎng fú huáng lóng zhēn rén yǐ shì tā men de náng zhōng wù ， ér zhè me shuō ， yě cún le luàn tā xīn shén de xiào guǒ 。
域外天魔们戏谑的声音传入耳朵里，仿佛黄龙真人已是他们的囊中物，而这么说，也存了乱他心神的效果。
This sudden change alarmed both combatants, who separated.
huáng lóng zhēn rén huì shàng dāng me ？
黄龙真人会上当么？
The seawater continued to change, but unexpectedly, the surface became eerily calm... no, not calm, dead silent with no ripples.
huò xǔ tā míng bái duì fāng de guǐ jì ， rán ér xiàn zài què shì huí tiān fá lì 。
或许他明白对方的诡计，然而现在却是回天乏力。
Knowing that wide oceans remained turbulent even without wind due to tides, what was happening here?
kǒu zhōng xiān xuè kuáng pēn bù yǐ ， yǎn kàn jiù yào zhī chēng bú zhù ， rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ， chū rén yì liào de yí mù fā shēng le 。
口中鲜血狂喷不已，眼看就要支撑不住，然而就在这时，出人意料的一幕发生了。
Cold Moon True Immortal wiped his mouth, while the three demon lords exchanged glances, sensing something ominous.
hōng lōng ！
轰隆！
PS: Tonight there will be another update; Tian Xiaojian is about to make a grand appearance. (To be continued...)
Evil men are ground down by other evil men, and this folded-wing fairy's strength was unpredictable. Everyone present felt a deep sense of caution, even Lin Xuan had some reservations.
