pī lǐ pā lā ……
噼里啪啦……
Crackling sounds...
rú yǔ dǎ bā hé ， yòu shì yǒu qiān jūn wàn mǎ yóu miàn qián bēn téng ér guò ， mì jí de zhuàng jī shēng bù tíng de chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà xiē guāng mù de fáng yù lì zì rán shì bù sú ， rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， què xiǎn de shì rú cǐ de cuì ruò ， suī bù néng shuō yǒu rú zhǐ hú ， dàn yě zài bù tíng de bèi tū pò 。{ dǐng } diǎn { xiǎo } shuō 3.
如雨打芭荷，又似有千军万马由面前奔腾而过，密集的撞击声不停的传入耳朵，那些光幕的防御力自然是不俗，然而此时此刻，却显得是如此的脆弱，虽不能说有如纸糊，但也在不停的被突破。{顶}点{小}说3.
Like raindrops hitting lotus leaves, or as if a million troops were rushing past him, the dense impacts kept pounding into his ears. The defensive power of those light screens was impressive, but at this moment, they seemed so fragile. They couldn't be said to be paper-thin, but they were continuously being breached.
jiàn qì xiōng měng ， líng jiè wǔ dà gāo shǒu de hé jī zú yǐ huǐ tiān miè dì ， zài duō de fáng yù dōu yǒu rú ér xì ， hěn kuài jiù fēn bēng lí xī 。
剑气凶猛，灵界五大高手的合击足以毁天灭地，再多的防御都有如儿戏，很快就分崩离析。
The sword energy was fierce; the combined attack of the five top experts in the Spirit Realm could destroy heaven and earth. Any more defenses would just be a joke. The scene quickly disintegrated.
jiàn guāng ， xì yǔ ， jiā zá zhe pò suì de liú xīng yì qǐ zhuàng le shàng qù 。
剑光，细雨，夹杂着破碎的流星一起撞了上去。
Sword light, fine rain, and shattered meteors collided together.
yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
一声巨响传入耳朵。
A loud explosion echoed through his ears as fragments of stone rained down like raindrops.
suì shí rú tóng yǔ diǎn yì bān de wǎng xià luò 。
碎石如同雨点一般的往下落。
The strange object from the Stone Profound Realm crumbled to pieces like a mountain collapsing.
nà xuán shí jiè rú tóng shān fēng yì bān de gǔ guài zhī wù tǔ bēng wǎ jiě diào le 。
那玄石界如同山峰一般的古怪之物土崩瓦解掉了。
Shouts of shock erupted everywhere.
yī shí jiān ， jīng hū shēng sì qǐ 。
一时间，惊呼声四起。
Dense streaks of遁光fled out from the crumbling buildings, but most only flew a dozen feet or so before being torn apart by sword light into bloody mist, with waves of spiritual energy spreading outward.
mì mì má má de dùn guāng yóu bēng kuì de jiàn zhù zhōng fēi le chū qù 。
密密麻麻的遁光由崩溃的建筑中飞了出去。
All those who fell were cultivators from the Stone Profound Realm.
dàn jué dà duō shù jǐn jǐn fēi le zhàng xǔ ， zuì duō yě bù guò shí zhàng ér yǐ ， jiù bèi jiàn guāng jiǎo chéng le xuè wù ， yī tuán tuán líng lì bō dòng mí sàn ér chū 。
但绝大多数仅仅飞了丈许，最多也不过十丈而已，就被剑光绞成了血雾，一团团灵力波动弥散而出。
They had originally hidden in spirit boats, but now they completely lost their protection.
yǔn luò de dōu shì xuán shí jiè de xiū xiān zhě 。
陨落的都是玄石界的修仙者。
Without an opponent to match them, even true immortals would retreat when faced with the concerted effort of these five top experts.
tā men yuán běn cáng shēn yú líng zhōu zhī zhōng ， rú jīn zé wán quán shī qù le bì hù 。
他们原本藏身于灵舟之中，如今则完全失去了庇护。
The situation was not a fight at all; it felt more like a one-sided碾压.
méi yǒu yī hé zhī dí ， wǔ dà gāo shǒu de qí xīn xié lì biàn shì lián zhēn xiān yě yào tuì bì 。
没有一合之敌，五大高手的齐心协力便是连真仙也要退避。
Until a sharp shout echoed through his ears, accompanied by countless grayish-white objects appearing in the air.
jú miàn yì diǎn yě bù xiàng shì dòu fǎ ， dào gèng xiàng shì yī biān dǎo de niǎn yā 。
局面一点也不像是斗法，倒更像是一边倒的碾压。
Of various sizes and shapes, each emitting unique法则之力lawful power.
zhí dào yī shēng duàn hē chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì xū kōng zhōng chū xiàn liǎo wú shù huī bái sè de shì wù 。
直到一声断喝传入耳朵，与之伴随的是虚空中出现了无数灰白色的事物。
"What is this..."
dà xiǎo bù yī ， xíng zhuàng gè yì 。
大小不一，形状各异。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted. However, upon clearly seeing those grayish-white objects, not only did it fail to ease the shock on his face, but the surprise deepened even further.
měi yí gè dōu sàn fà zhe bié yàng de fǎ zé zhī lì 。
每一个都散发着别样的法则之力。
They were stones!
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
Though they looked plain, a closer look would reveal significant differences from ordinary stones.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， rán ér kàn qīng chǔ nà huī bái sè de shì wù ， bù jǐn méi yǒu ràng tā huǎn jiě liǎn shàng de jīng yà zhī sè ， cuò è fǎn ér gèng jiā de yán zhòng le 。
林轩瞳孔微缩，然而看清楚那灰白色的事物，不仅没有让他缓解脸上的惊讶之色，错愕反而更加的严重了。
Accompanying this was five overwhelming spiritual pressures spreading out.
shì shí tou ！
是石头！
Far surpassing ordinary realm experts.
biǎo miàn shàng kàn hěn shì zhì piáo ， dàn zǐ xì qiáo lái kěn dìng yǔ xún cháng de shí tou dà yǒu bù tóng zhī chù 。
表面上看很是质朴，但仔细瞧来肯定与寻常的石头大有不同之处。
Needless to say, these must be the old fellows mentioned by Rain桐仙子 and others.
yǔ zhī bàn suí de shì wǔ dào jué qiáng de líng yā mí sàn ér chū 。
与之伴随的是五道绝强的灵压弥散而出。
True enemies!
yuǎn chāo pǔ tōng de lǐng yù qiáng zhě 。
远超普通的领域强者。
A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Lin Xuan's face as he调动剑光maneuvered his sword light, focusing it. He slashed at one of them—the closest one.
bú yòng shuō ， tā men yí dìng jiù shì yǔ tóng xiān zi děng rén kǒu zhōng de lǎo jiā huǒ 。
不用说，他们一定就是雨桐仙子等人口中的老家伙。
The scene was blurry.
zhēn zhèng de qiáng dí ！
真正的强敌！
Not... exactly, but the entire figure was shrouded in a layer of fog, making it impossible to discern gender or even if it were male or female.
lín xuān liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī hěn là zhī yì ， diào dòng jiàn guāng ， zhuǎn zhé níng jù 。 xiàng zhe qí zhōng yī rén pī kǎn ér qù 。
林轩脸上闪过一丝狠辣之意，调动剑光，转折凝聚。向着其中一人劈砍而去。
Fortunately, this didn't concern Lin Xuan.
nà yě shì jù lí zì jǐ zuì jìn de yí gè jiā huo 。
那也是距离自己最近的一个家伙。
Gender aside, any enemy would receive no mercy.
miàn róng yǒu xiē mó hú 。
面容有些模糊。
His attack gathered over a dozen sword lights, enough to cleave heaven and earth. However, the slender figure raised its hand, reaching out in front of it.
bù …… zhèng què de shuō ， shì zhěng gè rén dōu lǒng zhào zài yī céng mí wù zhōng kàn bù qīng chǔ ， shēn cái dǎo shì miáo tiáo xiān xì ， dàn gēn běn bù zhī dào shì nán shì nǚ 。
不……正确的说，是整个人都笼罩在一层迷雾中看不清楚，身材倒是苗条纤细，但根本不知道是男是女。
As it moved, those grayish-white stones converged... though they were called stones, their nature was more akin to mud.
hǎo zài zhè yě shì lín xuān bìng bù guān xīn dì 。
好在这也是林轩并不关心地。
Then, they transformed into a shield that completely concealed his form.
guǎn tā xìng bié rú hé ， zhǐ yào shì dí rén jiù dōu méi yǒu shǒu xià liú qíng yī shuō 。
管他性别如何，只要是敌人就都没有手下留情一说。
"Boom!" A loud explosion echoed through his ears as the sword light fell. However, what followed was an unbelievable scene.
tā zhè yī cì gōng jī ， jù jí de jiàn guāng shù shí yǒu yú ， zú yǐ kāi tiān pì dì ， rán ér nà xiān xiù de shēn yǐng què jiāng shǒu tái qǐ ， chōng zhe qián fāng yī zhuā ér qù 。
他这一次攻击，聚集的剑光数十有余，足以开天辟地，然而那纤秀的身影却将手抬起，冲着前方一抓而去。
When the sword light struck the stone shield, the entire void collapsed and sank. Lin Xuan's surroundings blurred, and he found himself in a strange place.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， nà xiē huī bái sè de shí tou wǎng zhōng jiān jù hé …… shuō shì shí tou 。 xìng zhì qí shí yǔ ní tǔ gèng yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。
随着他的动作，那些灰白色的石头往中间聚合……说是石头。性质其实与泥土更有几分相似之处。
"What is this..."
suí hòu jū rán huà wèi yí miàn dùn pái le 。
随后居然化为一面盾牌了。
Lin Xuan examined his surroundings. The ground was covered with rugged stones, and grayish-white mist permeated the air. There was no spiritual energy in the world; not just spiritual energy, but even a trace of demon qi was absent. Lin Xuan couldn't sense any trace of primordial energy.
jiāng tā zhěng gè shēn yǐng wán quán zhē zhù 。
将他整个身影完全遮住。
It seemed like he was in a void.
“ hōng ” de yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， jiàn guāng hěn hěn zhǎn luò ， rán ér jiē xià lái què fā shēng le bù kě sī yì de yí mù 。
“轰”的一声巨响传入耳朵，剑光狠狠斩落，然而接下来却发生了不可思议的一幕。
What happened?
dāng jiàn guāng fēi yáng ， pī zhǎn zài nà shí dùn zhī shàng ， zhěng gè xū kōng dōu wèi zhī tā xiàn zhuì luò ， suí hòu lín xuān yǎn qián de jǐng wù yī piàn mó hú ， jū rán chū xiàn zài yī mò shēng zhī chù 。
当剑光飞扬，劈斩在那石盾之上，整个虚空都为之塌陷坠落，随后林轩眼前的景物一片模糊，居然出现在一陌生之处。
Just moments ago, he had been fighting alongside Rain桐仙子 and others. How did he suddenly end up here?
“ zhè shì ……”
“这是……”
Could it be because of his attack?
lín xuān dǎ liàng zhuó yǎn qián de jǐng wù ， jiǎo xià shì lín xún de guài shí ， xū kōng zhōng mí màn zhe huī bái sè de wù qì 。 tiān dì jiān méi yǒu líng qì ， bù …… bù zhǐ shì líng qì ， mó qì yì shì yī lǚ yě wú ， jīn mù shuǐ huǒ tǔ 。 lín xuān gǎn shòu bú dào yī lǚ tiān dì yuán qì 。
林轩打量着眼前的景物，脚下是嶙峋的怪石，虚空中弥漫着灰白色的雾气。天地间没有灵气，不……不止是灵气，魔气亦是一缕也无，金木水火土。林轩感受不到一缕天地元气。
Lin Xuan could confirm that this wasn't an illusion; the only explanation left was that those Stone Profound Realm fellows were playing tricks on him.
fǎng fú shì zài yī xū wú de shì jiè lǐ 。
仿佛是在一虚无的世界里。
With this thought, Lin Xuan released his divine sense. While there was no primordial energy in this space, his divine sense remained unaffected.
zěn me huí shì ？
怎么回事？
However, he found nothing. This small area was vast and silent, with no trace of the enemy.
gāng cái hái yǔ yǔ tóng xiān zi děng lián shǒu duì dí ， zěn me yī zhuǎn yǎn ， jiù lái dào zhè guǐ yì zhī dì 。
刚才还与雨桐仙子等联手对敌，怎么一转眼，就来到这诡异之地。
Impossible, where could that fellow be hiding?
nán dào shì yīn wèi gāng cái de gōng jī 。
难道是因为刚才的攻击。
Lin Xuan looked around but still saw nothing.
lín xuān kě yǐ què dìng zhè bú shì huàn shù ， nà me jiě shì jiù zhǐ shèng xià yí gè 。 shì gāng cái nà xuán shí jiè de jiā huo gǎo de guǐ 。
林轩可以确定这不是幻术，那么解释就只剩下一个。是刚才那玄石界的家伙搞的鬼。
Though this place was strange, it covered only a hundred miles, and the terrain was extremely flat, devoid of any plants or trees. It made no sense for an opponent to have a hiding spot here, let alone hide his divine sense.
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， lín xuān jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， hǎo zài zhè lǐ suī rán méi yǒu tiān dì yuán qì 。 dàn shén shí què shì bù shòu yǐng xiǎng dì 。
想到这里，林轩将神识放出，好在这里虽然没有天地元气。但神识却是不受影响地。
Could it be...
rán ér què sī háo shōu huò yě wú ， zhè bù dà de kōng jiān lǐ tǎn dàng níng jì ， gēn běn jiù méi yǒu dí rén de zōng jì 。
然而却丝毫收获也无，这不大的空间里坦荡宁寂，根本就没有敌人的踪迹。
Lin Xuan's surprise deepened, but his combat experience was vast. His mind raced as he instantly used the technique to cross voids and moved a thousand feet away.
bù kě néng ， nà jiā huo duǒ zài nǎ lǐ ？
不可能，那家伙躲在哪里？
Pang!
lín xuān yóu mù sì gù ， què yī jiù shì bàn diǎn fā xiàn yě wú 。
林轩游目四顾，却依旧是半点发现也无。
A loud explosion echoed through his ears.
zhè kōng jiān suī rán guǐ yì ， miàn jī què bù guò bǎi lǐ ， ér qiě dì xíng yì shì píng tǎn yǐ jí ， gēn běn méi yǒu huā cǎo shù mù yī lèi de dōng xī ， yú qíng yú lǐ ， duì fāng dōu bú huì yǒu cáng shēn zhī dì ， gèng bú yào shuō jiāng zì jǐ de shén shí mán guò 。
这空间虽然诡异，面积却不过百里，而且地形亦是平坦以极，根本没有花草树木一类的东西，于情于理，对方都不会有藏身之地，更不要说将自己的神识瞒过。
As he shifted his form downstairs, the ground where he had stood suddenly sank, transforming into a giant mouth that bit down. Needless to say, it landed in empty space, but its power was still astonishing.
nán dào shuō ……
难道说……
Lin Xuan's face darkened as he stared at the place where the giant mouth appeared and said calmly, "Friend, you've been hiding for so long; isn't it time to show yourself to Lin Xuan? Or do you want me to take the initiative?"
lín xuān xīn zhōng cuò è ， dàn tā de dòu fǎ jīng yàn yì shì wú bǐ fēng fù de ， xīn niàn diàn zhuǎn ， què yī xià zi shī zhǎn chū héng dù xū kōng zhī shù ， nuó yí dào qiān zhàng zhī wài qù le 。
林轩心中错愕，但他的斗法经验亦是无比丰富的，心念电转，却一下子施展出横渡虚空之术，挪移到千丈之外去了。
"Geh geh geh. When did the Spirit Realm produce such a powerful cultivator with such an unfamiliar face? But meeting a soil demon is your bad luck."
pēng ！
嘭！
A sweet laugh echoed through his ears, carrying a hint of surprise. Then, a streak of light flashed on the ground, revealing a slender figure.
yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
一声巨响传入耳朵。
It was the woman who had just attacked him.
jiù zài lóu xià jiāng shēn xíng nuó zǒu de tóng shí ， tā gāng cái suǒ zhàn lì zhī chù ， dì miàn tū rán āo xiàn ， huà wèi yī jù dà de zuǐ bā ， cháo zhe qí yǎo luò ， bú yòng shuō ， luò zài le kōng chù ， dàn nà wēi lì ， yì shì lìng rén zé shé 。
就在楼下将身形挪走的同时，他刚才所站立之处，地面突然凹陷，化为一巨大的嘴巴，朝着其咬落，不用说，落在了空处，但那威力，亦是令人咋舌。
At first glance, her appearance and features seemed similar to those of human cultivators, but upon closer inspection, there were significant differences.
lín xuān de liǎn shàng ， lù chū yī sī yīn mái zhī sè ， jiù dīng zhe nà jù zuǐ chū xiàn zhī chù ， dàn dàn de kāi kǒu le ：“ dào yǒu yǐ jīng duǒ cáng le zhè bān zhǎng shí jiān ， shì bú shì yě gāi chū xiàn jiàn jiàn lín mǒu ， hái shì dǎ suàn ràng wǒ qīn zì chū shǒu ？”
林轩的脸上，露出一丝阴霾之色，就盯着那巨嘴出现之处，淡淡的开口了：“道友已经躲藏了这般长时间，是不是也该出现见见林某，还是打算让我亲自出手？”
She exuded an eerie aura from head to toe.
“ gē gē gē ， líng jiè shén me shí hòu chū xiàn le nǐ zhè yàng de qiáng zhě ， miàn róng què mò shēng dé jǐn ne ， bù guò yù jiàn wǒ tǔ yāo ， suàn nǐ dǎo méi le 。”
“咯咯咯，灵界什么时候出现了你这样的强者，面容却陌生得紧呢，不过遇见我土妖，算你倒霉了。”
Her expression towards Lin Xuan was extremely cold.
jiāo xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， dài zhe jǐ fēn yì wài zhī sè ， suí hòu dì biǎo líng guāng yī shǎn ， yí gè miáo tiáo de shēn yǐng xiǎn xiàn chū lái 。
娇笑的声音传入耳朵，带着几分意外之色，随后地表灵光一闪，一个苗条的身影显现出来。
"Soil demon."
zhèng shì zì jǐ gāng gāng chū shǒu gōng jī de nà míng nǚ zǐ 。
正是自己刚刚出手攻击的那名女子。
Lin Xuan muttered.
cū yī kàn ， róng mào wǔ guān ， yǔ rén lèi xiū shì xiāng chà fǎng fú ， dàn zǐ xì yī qiáo ， què yǒu pǒ duō bù tóng zhī chù 。
粗一看，容貌五官，与人类修士相差仿佛，但仔细一瞧，却有颇多不同之处。
"Why?"
hún shēn shàng xià ， sàn fà chù yī gǔ guǐ yì de qì xī 。
浑身上下，散发处一股诡异的气息。
The other appeared slightly surprised.
kàn xiàng lín xuān de biǎo qíng gèng shì lěng mò yǐ jí 。
看向林轩的表情更是冷漠以极。
"Nothing. I just find your name rather earthy."
“ tǔ yāo 。”
“土妖。”
"What did you say?"
lín xuān nán nán zì yǔ 。
林轩喃喃自语。
That woman's anger flared up. Though she didn't look particularly fierce and even had a somewhat charming appearance, she was one of the five top experts in the Stone Profound Realm. She had never been humiliated like this before by an unknown youngster daring to mock her.
“ zěn me ？”
“怎么？”
Lin Xuan showed no fear on his face.
duì fāng lüè gǎn cuò è 。
对方略感错愕。
Since they were already at each other's throats, there was nothing left to be polite about. Lin Xuan took a deep breath and raised both hands, preparing to unleash his domain.
“ méi shén me ， zhǐ shì jué de nǐ de míng zì hǎo tǔ 。”
“没什么，只是觉得你的名字好土。”
However, the next scene left him wide-eyed.
“ nǐ shuō shén me ？”
“你说什么？”
His domain didn't work.
nà nǚ zǐ bó rán dà nù ， bié kàn tā zhǎng xiàng bìng bù xiōng è ， hái yǒu jǐ fēn jiāo měi de yàng zi ， qí shí què shì xuán shí jiè de wǔ dà gāo shǒu zhī yī ， hé shí shòu guò zhè zhǒng xiū rǔ ， zhè míng bú jiàn jīng zhuàn de xiǎo zi jū rán gǎn jiāng zì jǐ xī luò ， dǎn ér gòu féi de 。
那女子勃然大怒，别看她长相并不凶恶，还有几分娇美的样子，其实却是玄石界的五大高手之一，何时受过这种羞辱，这名不见经传的小子居然敢将自己奚落，胆儿够肥的。
More accurately, it failed to manifest.
lín xuān liǎn shàng què shì sī háo wèi jù yě wú 。
林轩脸上却是丝毫畏惧也无。
How could this be?
fǎn zhèng shuāng fāng yǐ sī pò liǎn pí ， nà hái yǒu shén me hào kè qì ， lín xuān xī le kǒu qì ， shuāng shǒu gāo jǔ ， jiù zhǔn bèi shī zhǎn lǐng yù 。
反正双方已撕破脸皮，那还有什么好客气，林轩吸了口气，双手高举，就准备施展领域。
"Hmph, fool, you don't even know our Stone Profound Realm's secret techniques," the soil demon's face showed a hint of mockery.
rán ér jiē xià lái de yí mù què ràng tā dèng dà le yǎn zhū 。
然而接下来的一幕却让他瞪大了眼珠。
"What are the secret techniques of the Stone Profound Realm?"
lǐng yù jū rán méi yǒu xiào guǒ 。
领域居然没有效果。
"Even that you don't know. Did you just ascend to the Transcendence realm and dare to be reckless? Very well, I'll make you understand."
zhèng què de shuō shì méi néng shī zhǎn chū lái 。
正确的说是没能施展出来。
Hearing this, Lin Xuan stopped his actions. He was genuinely curious. Although Lin Xuan's strength had grown immensely, he knew nothing about the Three Thousand Worlds.
zhè zěn me kě néng ne ？
这怎么可能呢？
The Stone Profound Realm was a new one to him, let alone knowing what strange secret techniques they possessed that could counter his domain. (To be continued...)
Crackling sounds...
Like raindrops hitting lotus leaves, or as if a million troops were rushing past him, the dense impacts kept pounding into his ears. The defensive power of those light screens was impressive, but at this moment, they seemed so fragile. They couldn't be said to be paper-thin, but they were continuously being breached.
The sword energy was fierce; the combined attack of the five top experts in the Spirit Realm could destroy heaven and earth. Any more defenses would just be a joke. The scene quickly disintegrated.
Sword light, fine rain, and shattered meteors collided together.

A loud explosion echoed through his ears as fragments of stone rained down like raindrops.
The strange object from the Stone Profound Realm crumbled to pieces like a mountain collapsing.
Shouts of shock erupted everywhere.
Dense streaks of遁光fled out from the crumbling buildings, but most only flew a dozen feet or so before being torn apart by sword light into bloody mist, with waves of spiritual energy spreading outward.
All those who fell were cultivators from the Stone Profound Realm.
They had originally hidden in spirit boats, but now they completely lost their protection.
Without an opponent to match them, even true immortals would retreat when faced with the concerted effort of these five top experts.
The situation was not a fight at all; it felt more like a one-sided碾压.
Until a sharp shout echoed through his ears, accompanied by countless grayish-white objects appearing in the air.
Of various sizes and shapes, each emitting unique法则之力lawful power.
