魔螺山一役，中途虽然遇见了一些波折，但最后却以修士妖族大获全胜而告终，魔灾绵延了十余年之久，鼐龙界满目疮痍，如今终于焕发出新的生机。
After the battle on Mount Malonu, although there were some setbacks in the middle, it ultimately ended with a complete victory for the cultivators and demons. The demon calamity lasted for over ten years, leaving the realm of Malonu in ruins. Now, it had finally begun to flourish anew.
kě bù jiǔ zhī hòu ， què chuán chū yí gè xiāo xī ， nài lóng zhēn rén yǔ lín xuān jiē lí kāi le zhè lǐ 。
可不久之后，却传出一个消息，鼐龙真人与林轩皆离开了这里。
However, not long after, news spread that both Master Malonu and Lin Xuan had left the place.
wài chū qù yuǎn yóu ， rán ér jù tǐ qù nǎ lǐ què shuí yě bù qīng chǔ ， dàn kě yǐ kěn dìng de shì yǐ jīng bù zài nài lóng jiè le 。
外出去远游，然而具体去哪里却谁也不清楚，但可以肯定的是已经不在鼐龙界了。
They went out on a journey far away, but no one knew exactly where they were going. What was certain was that they were no longer within the realm of Malonu.
yī shí jiān ， àn cháo xiōng yǒng ， dàn hěn kuài què yòu guī yú chén jì ， èr rén de lí qù ， suī yǐn lái jīng yà de yì lùn wú shù ， dàn zuì zhōng bìng méi yǒu gěi nài lóng jiè dài lái duō dà de fēng bō 。
一时间，暗潮汹涌，但很快却又归于沉寂，二人的离去，虽引来惊讶的议论无数，但最终并没有给鼐龙界带来多大的风波。
For a time, there was much speculation and unrest, but soon it settled down. The departure of the two did not bring about significant upheaval in the realm of Malonu; instead, it sparked countless discussions and astonishment.
yù wài tiān mó bèi yún zhōng xiān zi shōu fú ， yǐ jīng chóng xīn huí dào le tiān wài mó yù ， ér jīng cǐ yī yì ， yún yǐn zōng nài lóng jiè dì yī zōng mén de dì wèi láo bù kě pò 。
域外天魔被云中仙子收服，已经重新回到了天外魔域，而经此一役，云隐宗鼐龙界第一宗门的地位牢不可破。
The域外天魔 had been subdued by Fairy Cloudy Mist, returning to their realm beyond the heavens. After this battle, the Cloudy Concealment Sect's main stronghold on Mount Malonu remained unshaken as a result.
yuán lái de zǒng duò méi yǒu le ， yín tóng shào nǚ chóng xīn xuǎn le yī xiān shān fú dì ， jiāng qí gǎi míng wèi yún yǐn shān ， shù yuè de gōng fu ， xīn de zǒng duò yǐ shì chū jiàn guī mó 。
原来的总舵没有了，银瞳少女重新选了一仙山福地，将其改名为云隐山，数月的功夫，新的总舵已是初见规模。
The old headquarters were abandoned, and the silver-eyed maiden chose a new sacred mountain as her new base, renaming it Cloudy Concealment Mountain. Within months, a new headquarters began to take shape.
yī nián nián de guò qù ， huā kāi huā luò ， yī xiē shòu yuán jiāng zhì de xiū shì ， zuò huà de zuò huà ， bì guān de bì guān ， yě yǒu bù shǎo yǔn luò zài tiān jié zhī xià ， ér xīn de miàn kǒng ， zé zài nài lóng jiè lù xù chū xiàn 。
一年年的过去，花开花落，一些寿元将至的修士，坐化的坐化，闭关的闭关，也有不少陨落在天劫之下，而新的面孔，则在鼐龙界陆续出现。
Years passed, with flowers blooming and falling. Some cultivators nearing their end of life would pass away in meditation or seclusion, while others fell victim to heavenly tribulations. New faces emerged one after another within the realm of Malonu.
shuí yě méi xiǎng dào lín xuān zhè cì lí kāi ， huì shí guò jìng qiān ， mián yán qiān nián ， ér tā zhè cì de jīng lì ， huì gěi líng jiè …… bù ， shì suǒ yǒu de jiè miàn ， dài lái zěn yàng de gǎi biàn 。
谁也没想到林轩这次离开，会时过境迁，绵延千年，而他这次的经历，会给灵界……不，是所有的界面，带来怎样的改变。
No one could have anticipated that Lin Xuan's departure this time would span a millennium, bringing about profound changes not just for the spirit realm but all the realms.
shàng gǔ yǐn mì ， shén qí de yù yán ， mí dǐ zhōng yǒu jiē xiǎo de yī tiān 。
上古隐秘，神奇的预言，谜底终有揭晓的一天。
Ancient secrets and mysterious prophecies were finally coming to light.
shì fēi ēn yuàn ， qíng chóu jiū gé ， nǎ pà wàn zài suì yuè chéng kōng ， nǎ pà cāng hǎi sāng tián ， zǒng yě yǒu liǎo jié de yī tiān 。
是非恩怨，情仇纠葛，哪怕万载岁月成空，哪怕沧海桑田，总也有了结的一天。
Right or wrong, love or hate, even if millennia passed like sand in the sea, there would always come a day when everything was resolved.
qīng qiū zhī guó 。
青丘之国。
In the Kingdom of Azure Peak,
lùn miàn jī de huà ， yǔ nài lóng jiè xiāng chà fǎng fú ， dàn dì xíng hái yào gèng jiā de fán fù 。
论面积的话，与鼐龙界相差仿佛，但地形还要更加的繁复。
While it had an area similar to that of Malonu, its terrain was more complex. There were many sects and families of cultivators here, but the power of the demon race was much stronger. After all, the first strongest entity in this land was the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox.
zhè ér yě yǒu zhe bù shǎo xiū shì de zōng mén jiā zú ， dàn yāo zú de shì lì ， què yào qiáng dà xǔ duō ， bì jìng ， zhè lǐ de dì yī qiáng zhě ， nǎi shì jiǔ wěi tiān hú 。
这儿也有着不少修士的宗门家族，但妖族的势力，却要强大许多，毕竟，这里的第一强者，乃是九尾天狐。
As one of the three great demon kings, it was only natural that she would support the demon race's interests.
zuò wèi sān dà yāo wáng zhī yī 。 lǐ suǒ dāng rán ， gèng yuàn yì fú chí yāo zú de shì lì 。
做为三大妖王之一。理所当然，更愿意扶持妖族的势力。
The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox, as a symbol of beauty and strength, remained shrouded in mystery. Even among those who had passed through the tribulation stage, few had seen her true form.
zuò wèi měi yǔ lì liàng de dài míng cí ， jiǔ wěi tiān hú què xiǎn de shí fēn shén mì ， biàn shì dù jié qī de qiáng zhě ， jiàn guò tā zhēn miàn mù dì yě bìng bù duō 。
做为美与力量的代名词，九尾天狐却显得十分神秘，便是渡劫期的强者，见过她真面目的也并不多。
Lin Xuan and her had met on several occasions; once, he even received aid from her. However, their greatest connection was that Snowfox Princess Xiang'er had been taken under her wing as an apprentice to inherit her teachings.
lín xuān yǔ tā yě suàn yǒu guò shù miàn zhī yuán ， céng jīng ， hái dé tā yuán shǒu guò 。
林轩与她也算有过数面之缘，曾经，还得她援手过。
This was Lin Xuan's first visit to the Kingdom of Azure Peak, and with his big brother accompanying him, he felt a mix of anxiety and hope. He worried about Xiang'er's safety but also looked forward to uncovering more truths.
bù guò liǎng rén zuì dà de jiāo jí hái shì xuě hú xiǎo gōng zhǔ xiāng ér bèi tā shōu wèi le ài tú ， chuán chéng yī bō 。
不过两人最大的交集还是雪狐小公主香儿被她收为了爱徒，传承衣钵。
You can add me on WeChat by searching "Hundred Refinements to Immortality Rain" or "hchy1982".
qīng qiū zhī guó ， lín xuān cóng wèi lái guò ， zhè cì suí dà gē yì qǐ 。 xīn zhōng què shì chōng mǎn le tǎn tè ， yī zé ， shì dān xīn xiāng ér de ān wēi ， dì èr diǎn ， zé shì qǐ pàn 。
青丘之国，林轩从未来过，这次随大哥一起。心中却是充满了忐忑，一则，是担心香儿的安危，第二点，则是企盼。
His big brother had mentioned that the light arc would appear, leading to a path of immortality. He also hinted at an ancient prophecy and its connection to Mo'er's past life.
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
Unfortunately, he was not willing to reveal too many details but did mention that Fairy Yutong could help him understand these matters.
dà gē céng shuō guāng hú xiàn ， xiān lù lián ， hái shuō zhè zhōng jiān ， qiān chě dào yí gè shàng gǔ de yù yán 。 qiě yǔ yuè ér de qián shì ， yǒu zhū duō qiān chě 。
大哥曾说光弧现，仙路连，还说这中间，牵扯到一个上古的预言。且与月儿的前世，有诸多牵扯。
Fairy Yutong was also coming to the Kingdom of Azure Peak. Lin Xuan felt that he was getting closer to uncovering the truth about Mo'er's identity.
kě xī tài jù tǐ ， tā què bù yuàn duō shuō ， bù guò què yán dào 。 yǔ tóng xiān zi kě yǐ tì zì jǐ jiě huò 。
可惜太具体，他却不愿多说，不过却言到。雨桐仙子可以替自己解惑。
Since they were unsure of the situation in the Kingdom of Azure Peak, they decided not to use interdimensional teleportation arrays and instead broke through the void, appearing at random locations but much more conveniently.
lǐ yǔ tóng yě yào lái qīng qiū zhī guó ， lín xuān gǎn jué ， zì jǐ jù lí yuè ér de shēn shì zhī mì ， yǐ jīng shì yuè lái yuè jìn le 。
李雨桐也要来青丘之国，林轩感觉，自己距离月儿的身世之秘，已经是越来越近了。
...
yóu yú bù zhī dào qīng qiū zhī guó nà biān de qíng kuàng jiū jìng rú hé 。 liǎng rén gān cuì méi yǒu shǐ yòng gé jiè chuán sòng zhèn shén me ， zhí jiē pò suì xū kōng ， zhè yàng chū xiàn de dì diǎn suī rán shì suí jī de 。 dàn què fāng biàn kuài jié xǔ duō 。
由于不知道青丘之国那边的情况究竟如何。两人干脆没有使用隔界传送阵什么，直接破碎虚空，这样出现的地点虽然是随机的。但却方便快捷许多。
The sun blazed overhead as they found themselves in a vast desert. Apart from golden sand grains, there was no sign of life for miles around.
……
……
Suddenly, spatial fluctuations disrupted the air, and a large black hole appeared mid-air. A beam of golden light shot out, and after a moment, two figures emerged.
liè rì dāng kōng ， zhè lǐ shì yī piàn huāng mò 。
烈日当空，这里是一片荒漠。
No need to say, it was Master Malonu and Lin Xuan.
chú le jīn sè de shā lì ， fāng yuán wàn lǐ ， shēng jī liǎo wú 。
除了金色的沙粒，方圆万里，生机了无。
The brothers traveled together, with Little Butterfly and Mo'er hiding inside the Momentary Cavern Scroll. As for Heart Refinement, while Lin Xuan did not favor her less, his wife's cultivation progress had been rapid, but compared to him, she was still too weak. Given the uncertain nature of their journey, he decided to leave her behind in Malonu.
tū rán ， kōng jiān bō dòng yì qǐ ， yī hēi hū hū de dà dòng zài bàn kōng zhōng fú xiàn ér chū ， yī dào jīn guāng cóng lǐ miàn jī shè ， shǎo qǐng guāng máng yī liǎn ， liǎng dào rén yǐng yìng rù yǎn lián 。
突然，空间波动一起，一黑乎乎的大洞在半空中浮现而出，一道金光从里面激射，少顷光芒一敛，两道人影映入眼帘。
They appeared in a desert.
bú yòng shuō ， zhèng shì nài lóng zhēn rén yǔ lín xuān 。
不用说，正是鼐龙真人与林轩。
Both Master Malonu and Lin Xuan were surprised. They then simultaneously released their divine senses.
xiōng dì èr rén jié bàn ér lái ， xiǎo dié yǔ yuè ér zì rán shì duǒ zài xū yú dòng tiān tú lǐ miàn 。
兄弟二人结伴而来，小蝶与月儿自然是躲在须臾洞天图里面。
To their shock, while the surface of the desert seemed barren, its bottom was littered with countless bones. Could this be an ancient battlefield?
zhì yú qín xīn ， bú shì lín xuān hòu cǐ bó bǐ ， ài qī de xiū wèi ， qí shí yǐ shì jìn zhǎn shén sù ， dàn xiāng duì yú zì jǐ ， hái shì tài ruò ， cǐ xíng fú huò nán cè ， gù ér lín xuān jiù ràng tā liú zài nài lóng jiè le 。
至于琴心，不是林轩厚此薄彼，爱妻的修为，其实已是进展神速，但相对于自己，还是太弱，此行福祸难测，故而林轩就让她留在鼐龙界了。
"Big Brother, what should we do now?"
chū xiàn de dì diǎn jū rán shì shā mò 。
出现的地点居然是沙漠。
Lin Xuan was still uncertain about everything; thus, Master Malonu would lead the way.
lín xuān yǔ nài lóng zhēn rén dōu yǒu xiē yì wài ， suí hòu èr rén bù yuē ér tóng de jiāng shén shí fàng le chū lái 。
林轩与鼐龙真人都有些意外，随后二人不约而同的将神识放了出来。
"We don't know where the light arc will appear. Let's first meet up with Fairy Yutong."
què shì yī jīng ， zhè shā mò biǎo miàn shàng kàn shí fēn huāng wú ， rán ér dǐ bù què mái yǒu dà liàng de shī gǔ ， nán dào zhè lǐ shì yī chù gǔ zhàn chǎng me ？
却是一惊，这沙漠表面上看十分荒芜，然而底部却埋有大量的尸骨，难道这里是一处古战场么？
Master Malonu's usually carefree expression turned serious. This adventure was no trivial matter.
“ dà gē ， wǒ men xiàn zài yīng gāi rú hé ？”
“大哥，我们现在应该如何？”
"Shall we meet up with Fairy Yutong? Will Broad-Cold Immortal also come here, and have you and Big Brother already decided on a meeting point?"
lín xuān duì yī qiè fǒu měng měng dǒng dǒng ， cǐ xíng zì rán shì yǐ nài lóng zhēn rén wéi zhǔ 。
林轩对一切否懵懵懂懂，此行自然是以鼐龙真人为主。
Lin Xuan asked directly.
“ nà guāng hú yě bù zhī dào huì chū xiàn zài hé chù ， zhè yàng shì xún zhǎo bú dào de ， hái shì xiān yǔ yǔ tóng xiān zi huì hé 。”
“那光弧也不知道会出现在何处，这样是寻找不到的，还是先与雨桐仙子汇合。”
"Brother Broad-Cold is likely to come; there might be other powerful entities as well. As for the meeting point, don't worry. We'll first determine where we are."
nài lóng zhēn rén de liǎn shàng nán dé lù chū le zhèng jīng de shén sè ， bì jìng zhè yī cì de lì xiǎn fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
鼐龙真人的脸上难得露出了正经的神色，毕竟这一次的历险非同小可。
Master Malonu released his divine sense again and then shot forward like a streak of lightning. Lin Xuan followed without delay, his body emitting a faint green glow.
“ yǔ yǔ tóng xiān zi huì hé ， nà guǎng hán zhēn rén shì fǒu yě huì lái zhè lǐ ne ， dà gē nǐ men shāng liáng hǎo huì hé de dì diǎn le me ？” lín xuān zhuǎn guò tóu lú ， yī zhēn jiàn xiě de shuō 。
“与雨桐仙子汇合，那广寒真人是否也会来这里呢，大哥你们商量好汇合的地点了么？”林轩转过头颅，一针见血的说。
They flew westward for about half a day when Lin Xuan suddenly paused, his brows furrowing.
“ guǎng hán zhēn rén ， yīng gāi shì huì lái de ， shuō bù dìng hái yǒu qí tā de qiáng zhě ， zhì yú huì hé de dì diǎn ， nǐ bù yòng dān xīn ， wǒ men shǒu xiān què dìng shēn zài hé chù 。”
“广寒真人，应该是会来的，说不定还有其他的强者，至于汇合的地点，你不用担心，我们首先确定身在何处。”
Master Malonu's reaction was swift as well. They hovered in mid-air, close to the desert's exit.
nài lóng zài cì jiāng shén shí yī fàng ér chū ， suí hòu huà wèi yī dào jīng hóng xiàng zhe qián miàn jī shè ， lín xuān jiàn le ， bù gǎn dài màn ， yě lián máng hún shēn qīng máng dà qǐ ， gēn zài le hòu miàn 。
鼐龙再次将神识一放而出，随后化为一道惊虹向着前面激射，林轩见了，不敢怠慢，也连忙浑身青芒大起，跟在了后面。
"Third Brother, your divine sense is truly impressive."
jiù zhè yàng yī lù xiàng xī ， fēi le dà yuē yǒu bàn rì guāng jǐng ， lín xuān tū rán méi shāo yī dòng ， jiāng dùn guāng tíng le xià lái 。
就这样一路向西，飞了大约有半日光景，林轩突然眉梢一动，将遁光停了下来。
Master Malonu's expression turned back to its usual carefree demeanor. It wasn't often that he praised others.
nài lóng zhēn rén de fǎn yìng yě hěn kuài ， liǎng rén xuán tíng zài bàn kōng de zhōng jiān ， ér zhè lǐ jù lí shā mò de chū kǒu ， yǐ jīng bù yuǎn 。
鼐龙真人的反应也很快，两人悬停在半空的中间，而这里距离沙漠的出口，已经不远。
"Big Brother flatters me too much; I'm just decent at sensing things. In other areas, I fall far short of you," Lin Xuan modestly replied.
“ sān dì ， nǐ de shén shí dàng zhēn bù sú 。”
“三弟，你的神识当真不俗。”
As they spoke, the sound of breaking through space grew louder and louder until a light arc appeared on the horizon.
nài lóng zhēn rén de liǎn shàng chóng xīn huī fù le diào er láng dāng de shén sè ， tīng tā kāi kǒu kuā zàn bié rén ， nà kě shì bù róng yì de 。
鼐龙真人的脸上重新恢复了吊儿郎当的神色，听他开口夸赞别人，那可是不容易的。
This was not the same light arc mentioned earlier but rather a streak of lightning that seemed to be racing towards them with incredible speed.
“ dà gē guò jiǎng le ， xiǎo dì yě jiù shén shí hái kě yǐ ， qí tā fāng miàn ， bǐ dà gē kě chà de yuǎn le 。” lín xuān qiān xùn de shuō 。
“大哥过奖了，小弟也就神识还可以，其他方面，比大哥可差得远了。”林轩谦逊的说。
A woman could be seen within the light arc, her face showing signs of distress. However, her aura was formidable; she was undoubtedly a late-stage tribulation cultivator.
yán tán jiān ， pò kōng shēng yǐ shì dà zuò ， qiě yuè lái yuè xiǎng ， hěn kuài ， tiān biān jiù chū xiàn le yī dào guāng hú 。
言谈间，破空声已是大做，且越来越响，很快，天边就出现了一道光弧。
Lin Xuan and Master Malonu's eyes widened in surprise.
bié wù huì ， cǐ guāng hú fēi bǐ guāng hú ， yán gé de shuō ， shì yī dào jīng hóng ， sì hū kuài dào le jí diǎn ， fēng chí diàn chè ， zhèng cháo zhe zhè biān fēi guò lái le 。
别误会，此光弧非彼光弧，严格的说，是一道惊虹，似乎快到了极点，风驰电掣，正朝着这边飞过来了。
Even by their standards, ordinary late-stage tribulation cultivators were not particularly impressive, but here she looked like a true powerhouse. Why did she appear so distressed?
guāng hú zhōng yǒu yī nǚ zǐ ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì láng bèi zhī sè ， dàn qì xī què shì bù sú ， bǎi fēn zhī bǎi shì dù jié jí bié de qiáng zhě ， ér qiě shì hòu qī cún zài 。
光弧中有一女子，脸上满是狼狈之色，但气息却是不俗，百分之百是渡劫级别的强者，而且是后期存在。
Thinking of the changes in the Kingdom of Azure Peak, both men exchanged glances with interest.
lín xuān yǔ nài lóng dōu dèng dà le yǎn 。
林轩与鼐龙都瞪大了眼。
"Big Brother, should we go see her?"
suī rán yǐ tā liǎ de biāo zhǔn ， pǔ tōng dù jié hòu qī de xiū shì yě méi yǒu shén me liǎo bù qǐ ， dàn píng xīn lái shuō ， fàng dào nǎ li dōu shì qiáng zhě ， zěn me huì zhè me láng bèi ne ？
虽然以他俩的标准，普通渡劫后期的修士也没有什么了不起，但平心来说，放到哪里都是强者，怎么会这么狼狈呢？
"Haha, naturally, we must save the beautiful lady."
lián xiǎng qīng qiū zhī guó de biàn yì ， liǎng rén de liǎn shàng dōu lù chū le yī sī xìng qù 。
联想青丘之国的变异，两人的脸上都露出了一丝兴趣。
Master Malonu's response left Lin Xuan speechless; this was not the point. As they paused, the woman drew closer. With his keen eyesight, Lin Xuan could now clearly make out her features.
“ dà gē ， wǒ men qù kàn kàn rú hé ？”
“大哥，我们去看看如何？”
Wait a minute, something seemed familiar, but he was certain he had never met this person before. If so, why did it feel so familiar?
“ hēi hēi ， měi nǚ dāng rán shì yào jiù de 。”
“嘿嘿，美女当然是要救的。”
Lin Xuan pondered while the creature chasing her came into view—a swarm of insect clouds.
nài lóng zhēn rén de huí dá ràng lín xuān yī zhèn wú yǔ ， zhè gēn běn jiù bú shì zhòng diǎn hǎo ba ， ér zhè shāo yī dān gē ， cǐ nǚ yòu fēi jìn le xǔ duō ， yǐ lín xuān de yǎn lì ， yǐ jīng kě yǐ jiāng tā de wǔ guān kàn qīng chǔ 。
鼐龙真人的回答让林轩一阵无语，这根本就不是重点好吧，而这稍一耽搁，此女又飞近了许多，以林轩的眼力，已经可以将她的五官看清楚。
The insect cloud covered an extensive area and contained at least ten thousand exotic insects.
yí ， zěn me yǒu xiē yǎn shú ， dàn lín xuān kě yǐ bǎi fēn zhī bǎi què dìng zhè rén zì jǐ cóng wèi jiàn guò ， jì rán rú cǐ ， wèi hé huì gǎn jué dào shú xī ne ？
咦，怎么有些眼熟，但林轩可以百分之百确定这人自己从未见过，既然如此，为何会感觉到熟悉呢？
These insects were peculiar in shape; each was no more than an inch long, resembling mantises but with a miniature dragon head.
After the battle on Mount Malonu, although there were some setbacks in the middle, it ultimately ended with a complete victory for the cultivators and demons. The demon calamity lasted for over ten years, leaving the realm of Malonu in ruins. Now, it had finally begun to flourish anew.
However, not long after, news spread that both Master Malonu and Lin Xuan had left the place.
They went out on a journey far away, but no one knew exactly where they were going. What was certain was that they were no longer within the realm of Malonu.
For a time, there was much speculation and unrest, but soon it settled down. The departure of the two did not bring about significant upheaval in the realm of Malonu; instead, it sparked countless discussions and astonishment.
The域外天魔 had been subdued by Fairy Cloudy Mist, returning to their realm beyond the heavens. After this battle, the Cloudy Concealment Sect's main stronghold on Mount Malonu remained unshaken as a result.
The old headquarters were abandoned, and the silver-eyed maiden chose a new sacred mountain as her new base, renaming it Cloudy Concealment Mountain. Within months, a new headquarters began to take shape.
Years passed, with flowers blooming and falling. Some cultivators nearing their end of life would pass away in meditation or seclusion, while others fell victim to heavenly tribulations. New faces emerged one after another within the realm of Malonu.
No one could have anticipated that Lin Xuan's departure this time would span a millennium, bringing about profound changes not just for the spirit realm but all the realms.
Ancient secrets and mysterious prophecies were finally coming to light.
Right or wrong, love or hate, even if millennia passed like sand in the sea, there would always come a day when everything was resolved.
...
In the Kingdom of Azure Peak,
While it had an area similar to that of Malonu, its terrain was more complex. There were many sects and families of cultivators here, but the power of the demon race was much stronger. After all, the first strongest entity in this land was the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox.

You can add me on WeChat by searching "Hundred Refinements to Immortality Rain" or "hchy1982".
His big brother had mentioned that the light arc would appear, leading to a path of immortality. He also hinted at an ancient prophecy and its connection to Mo'er's past life.
Unfortunately, he was not willing to reveal too many details but did mention that Fairy Yutong could help him understand these matters.
Fairy Yutong was also coming to the Kingdom of Azure Peak. Lin Xuan felt that he was getting closer to uncovering the truth about Mo'er's identity.

The sun blazed overhead as they found themselves in a vast desert. Apart from golden sand grains, there was no sign of life for miles around.

No need to say, it was Master Malonu and Lin Xuan.

As for Heart Refinement, while Lin Xuan did not favor her less, his wife's cultivation progress had been rapid, but compared to him, she was still too weak.

They flew westward for about half a day when Lin Xuan suddenly paused, his brows furrowing.
Master Malonu's reaction was swift as well. They hovered in mid-air, close to the desert's exit.
"Third Brother, your divine sense is truly impressive."
Master Malonu's expression turned back to its usual carefree demeanor. It wasn't often that he praised others.
"Big Brother flatters me too much; I'm just decent at sensing things. In other areas, I fall far short of you," Lin Xuan modestly replied.
As they spoke, the sound of breaking through space grew louder and louder until a light arc appeared on the horizon.
This was not the same light arc mentioned earlier but rather a streak of lightning that seemed to be racing towards them with incredible speed.
A woman could be seen within the light arc, her face showing signs of distress. However, her aura was formidable; she was undoubtedly a late-stage tribulation cultivator.
Lin Xuan and Master Malonu's eyes widened in surprise.
Even by their standards, ordinary late-stage tribulation cultivators were not particularly impressive, but here she looked like a true powerhouse. Why did she appear so distressed?
Thinking of the changes in the Kingdom of Azure Peak, both men exchanged glances with interest.
"Big Brother, should we go see her?"
"Haha, naturally, we must save the beautiful lady."
Master Malonu's response left Lin Xuan speechless; this was not the point. As they paused, the woman drew closer. With his keen eyesight, Lin Xuan could now clearly make out her features.
Wait a minute, something seemed familiar, but he was certain he had never met this person before. If so, why did it feel so familiar?
Lin Xuan pondered while the creature chasing her came into view—a swarm of insect clouds.
The insect cloud covered an extensive area and contained at least ten thousand exotic insects.
These insects were peculiar in shape; each was no more than an inch long, resembling mantises but with a miniature dragon head.
