### Ambush!
tōu xí ！
偷袭！
Or rather, Mo'er's attack had already captured his full attention. In any case, the appearance of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire was extremely sudden.
huò zhě shuō ， yuè ér de gōng jī ， yǐ xī yǐn le tā quán bù de zhù yì ， zǒng ér yán zhī ， huàn líng tiān huǒ de chū xiàn ， tū wù yǐ jí 。
或者说，月儿的攻击，已吸引了他全部的注意，总而言之，幻灵天火的出现，突兀以极。
Master Tians福's face indeed showed a trace of unease. Without further thought, he suddenly raised one hand and pulled out a steel whip from his sleeve, slamming it down towards his head.
tiān fú zūn zhě de liǎn shàng ， guǒ rán yě lù chū yī sī huáng rán zhī yì ， bù jí duō xiǎng ， dān shǒu měng rán yī tái ， cóng yī xiù zhōng chōu chū le yī tiáo gāng biān ， cháo zhe tóu dǐng zá luò 。
天福尊者的脸上，果然也露出一丝惶然之意，不及多想，单手猛然一抬，从衣袖中抽出了一条钢鞭，朝着头顶砸落。
As he moved, waves crashed into his ears.
suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， bō tāo shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
随着他的动作，波涛声传入耳朵。
Auras of divine energy swirled, and a great river appeared above his head.
xiān qì yīn yūn ， líng guāng sì shè ， qí tóu dǐng zhī shàng ， chū xiàn le yī tiáo dà hé 。
仙气氤氲，灵光四射，其头顶之上，出现了一条大河。
Water to counter fire!
yǐ shuǐ kè huǒ ！
以水克火！
But this power was far more complex than imagined.
dàn zhè shén tōng ， bǐ xiǎng xiàng de hái yào fù zá xǔ duō 。
但这神通，比想象的还要复杂许多。
The river kept compressing until the entire stream was condensed into a water ball about a foot in diameter.
zhǐ jiàn nà dà hé bù tíng de yā suō ， zuì hòu zhěng tiáo hé liú ， bèi yā suō chéng yì zhí jìng chǐ xǔ de shuǐ qiú 。
只见那大河不停的压缩，最后整条河流，被压缩成一直径尺许的水球。
Purified water essence filled it, along with磅礴的仙力.
chún cuì de shuǐ yuán qì ， lǐ miàn hái yùn yù zhe páng bó de xiān lì 。
纯粹的水元气，里面还蕴育着磅礴的仙力。
A thunderous sound echoed through his ears as it collided with Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire.
hōng rán yī shēng jù xiǎng chuán rù ěr lǐ 。
轰然一声巨响传入耳里。
Water and fire, elements that should not coexist, were now fiercely battling each other, consuming each other...
yǔ huàn líng tiān huǒ zhuàng zài yì qǐ 。
与幻灵天火撞在一起。
Master Tians福 was drenched in sweat!
wǔ xíng xiāng shēng xiāng kè ， shuǐ huǒ yuán běn jiù shì bù néng xiāng róng dì ， cǐ kè hù xiāng chán dòu zhuī zhú ， pīn mìng tūn shì ……
五行相生相克，水火原本就是不能相容地，此刻互相缠斗追逐，拼命吞噬……
Although he managed to block Lin Xuan and Mo'er's attacks, it was at great cost. The two of them were now essentially competing for magical power.
tiān fú lǎo zǔ yǐ shì dà hán lín lí ！
天福老祖已是大汗淋漓！
Lin Xuan didn't need to be said; his magical essence was far richer than that of any same-level cultivator.
suī rán tā miǎn qiǎng dǎng xià le lín xuān yǔ yuè ér de gōng jī ， dàn què chī lì yǐ jí 。
虽然他勉强挡下了林轩与月儿的攻击，但却吃力以极。
As for Mo'er, she appeared to have reached the middle stage of Tribulation, but Apsara Art's subtlety allowed her to summon demons and ghosts from the Spirit Realm and the Mystic Yin Treasure Box. Although it seemed extravagant, in reality, very little magical power was consumed.
shuāng fāng rú jīn ， yǐ jìn sì yú bǐ pīn fǎ lì 。
双方如今，已近似于比拼法力。
Thus, she could endure for a long time.
lín xuān de qíng kuàng bú yòng shuō ， fǎ lì chún hòu yuǎn yuǎn shèng guò tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě 。
林轩的情况不用说，法力醇厚远远胜过同阶修仙者。
From any angle, Master Tians福 was at a disadvantage.
zhì yú yuè ér ， biǎo miàn shàng dù jié zhōng qī ， dàn ā xiū luó jué xuán miào wú bǐ ， tōng guò líng yù yǔ xuán yīn bǎo hé yì shǐ yāo guǐ shī mó shǒu jī nǎ jiā qiáng ? shǒu jī yuè dú wǎng ， biǎo miàn shàng lí pǔ ， qí shí zhēn zhèng xiāo hào de fǎ lì bìng bù duō 。
至于月儿，表面上渡劫中期，但阿修罗诀玄妙无比，通过灵域与玄阴宝盒役使妖鬼尸魔手机哪家强?手机阅读网，表面上离谱，其实真正消耗的法力并不多。
And just as his luck turned bad, Lin Xuan wasn't alone. Peacock was eyeing them from the side.
gù ér yě shì kě yǐ jiān chí hěn jiǔ de 。
故而也是可以坚持很久的。
Taking advantage of this momentary opening, it made sense to strike without hesitation.
bù lùn cóng nǎ ge jiǎo dù ， jú miàn duì tiān fú lǎo zǔ ， dōu shì bù lì 。
不论从哪个角度，局面对天福老祖，都是不利。
A jade hand raised, and a massive shadow appeared before her.
ér wū lòu piān féng lián yè yǔ ， tā gāng cái tuō dà tài guò ， yào zhī dào lín xuān zhè biān ， rén shǒu kě bù jǐn yǒu liǎng gè 。
而屋漏偏逢连夜雨，他刚才托大太过，要知道林轩这边，人手可不仅有两个。
Her entire body was encased in five-colored glass, towering like a mountain, with an imposing demeanor. It was none other than Great King Peacock.
kǒng què hái hǔ shì zài cè 。
孔雀还虎视在侧。
Yuan Yuan also condensed into a physical form.
cǐ shí chǒu zhe kòng xì ， zì rán méi yǒu fàng guò de dào lǐ 。
此时瞅着空隙，自然没有放过的道理。
This manifestation had substance; as she flapped her wings, five-colored divine light turned into arrows that shot over.
yù shǒu yī tái 。
玉手一抬。
But this wasn't the end.
yī jù dà de xū yǐng zài tā miàn qián fú xiàn chū lái 。
一巨大的虚影在她面前浮现出来。
In the next moment, a sharp sound of breaking air reached his ears. A pair of green claws tore through the void and appeared above Master Tians福's head.
hún shēn shàng xià wǔ sè liú lí ， shēn xíng zú yǒu yī zuò shān zhī jù ， shén tài wēi yán pì nì ， zhèng shì kǒng què dà míng wáng 。 yuàn yuàn yì shì níng jié chū le fǎ xiàng 。
浑身上下五色琉璃，身形足有一座山之巨，神态威严睥睨，正是孔雀大明王。媛媛亦是凝结出了法相。
They fiercely struck down!
cǐ fǎ xiàng rú yǒu shí zhì ， chì bǎng yī shàn ， wǔ sè líng guāng huà zuò le gǔn gǔn de yǔ jiàn ， cuán shè guò lái 。
此法相如有实质，翅膀一扇，五色灵光化作了滚滚的羽箭，攒射过来。
Master Tians福 was in a panic as green light flickered around him, transforming into a massive shield that enveloped him completely.
ér zhè hái méi yǒu jié shù 。
而这还没有结束。
Instantly, countless arrows rained down on it.
xià yī kè 。
下一刻。
The shield trembled but managed to block this wave of attacks.
xī lì de pò kōng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhǐ jiàn yī duì qīng sè jù zhǎo jiāng xū kōng sī pò ， jìng rán píng kōng chū xiàn zài tiān fú lǎo zǔ de tóu dǐng shàng fāng le 。
犀利的破空声传入耳朵，只见一对青色巨爪将虚空撕破，竟然凭空出现在天福老祖的头顶上方了。
But Master Tians福's expression turned grim. Sweat dripped from his forehead as he struck the surface of the shield with a palm, injecting magical power.
hěn hěn zhuā luò ！
狠狠抓落！
A thunderous sound echoed in his ears as the green claws collided with the shield.
tiān fú lǎo zǔ dà jí ， hún shēn qīng máng shǎn shuò bù yǐ ， huà wèi le yí miàn jù dà de dùn pái ， jī hū jiāng tā zì jǐ zhěng gè bāo guǒ zài le lǐ miàn 。
天福老祖大急，浑身青芒闪烁不已，化为了一面巨大的盾牌，几乎将他自己整个包裹在了里面。
This impact was much more powerful than the arrows.
xià yī kè ， mì mì má má de jiàn shǐ jiù bào fēng yǔ bān de dǎ zài le shàng miàn 。
下一刻，密密麻麻的箭矢就暴风雨般的打在了上面。
Master Tians福 felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out a blood arrow.
nà dùn pái chàn dǒu bù yǐ 。 dàn zǒng suàn dǎng xià le zhè yī bō de gōng jī 。
那盾牌颤抖不已。但总算挡下了这一波的攻击。
Facing three opponents, he was truly at his limit.
kě tiān fú lǎo zǔ de liǎn sè què nán kàn yǐ jí ， é tóu shàng miàn mǎn shì dòu dà de hàn dī ， shǒu yī tái ， yī zhǎng pāi luò zài le dùn pái de biǎo miàn ， jiāng fǎ lì zhù rù 。
可天福老祖的脸色却难看以极，额头上面满是豆大的汗滴，手一抬，一掌拍落在了盾牌的表面，将法力注入。
A trace of regret flashed across his face. He had been too careless and overconfident.
“ hōng ” de yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， què shì jù zhǎo yě zhuàng shàng qù le 。
“轰”的一声传入耳朵，却是巨爪也撞上去了。
But now, it was too late to change course.
zhè yī xià de wēi lì ， kě jiù yào bǐ jiàn shǐ dà shàng xǔ duō 。
这一下的威力，可就要比箭矢大上许多。
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a sneer; he still had plenty of energy left.
tiān fú lǎo zǔ hóu tóu yī tián ， cóng zuǐ bā lǐ pēn chū yī dào xuè jiàn 。
天福老祖喉头一甜，从嘴巴里喷出一道血箭。
How terrible! Was he really going to perish here?
yǐ yī dí sān ， rú jīn tā shì zhēn de dào jí xiàn 。
以一敌三，如今他是真的到极限。
Master Tians福 thought with reluctance as he pondered his escape. As a True Immortal, although he lacked the combat experience of powerful beings from the lower realms, he still had several hidden tricks up his sleeve.
liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī huǐ sè 。 zì jǐ shí zài tài dà yì qīng dí le 。
脸上闪过一丝悔色。自己实在太大意轻敌了。
But each of these would come at a great cost—truly killing one thousand while losing eight hundred.
piān piān rú jīn què shì chéng qí hǔ ， hòu huǐ yě méi yǒu le yòng chǔ 。
偏偏如今却势成骑虎，后悔也没有了用处。
While it might seem not worth it, he was unwilling to use any of them. Now there was no choice...
lín xuān zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī jī cháo zhī sè ， tā kě shì yī jiù xíng yǒu yú lì de 。
林轩嘴角边露出一丝讥嘲之色，他可是依旧行有余力的。
What could be more important than his life?
kě wù ， nán dào zì jǐ jū rán yào yǔn luò zài zhè lǐ me ？
可恶，难道自己居然要陨落在这里么？
He resolved to fight on.
tiān fú lǎo zǔ bù gān de xiǎng zhe 。 kǔ sī zhe tuō shēn zhī cè 。
天福老祖不甘的想着。苦思着脱身之策。
"Little fellow, you forced my hand."
zuò wèi zhēn xiān zhōng de qiáng zhě ， suī rán tā zhēng dòu de jīng yàn yuǎn bù jí xià jiè de dà néng duō ， dàn wú lùn rú hé ， hái shì yǒu jǐ zhǒng yā xiāng dǐ shǒu duàn de 。
做为真仙中的强者，虽然他争斗的经验远不及下界的大能多，但无论如何，还是有几种压箱底手段的。
Master Tians福 gritted his teeth as a sinister look replaced the smile on his face. He raised his hand.
zhǐ shì zhè xiē shǒu duàn 。 wú lùn dòng yòng nǎ yī zhǒng ， dōu yào fù chū jí dà de dài jià ， zhēn zhēn zhèng zhèng kě yǐ shuō shì shā dí yī qiān 。 zì sǔn bā bǎi 。
只是这些手段。无论动用哪一种，都要付出极大的代价，真真正正可以说是杀敌一千。自损八百。
"Swoosh!" sounds filled his ears as several black divine swords appeared.
shuō dé bù cháng shī yǒu xiē tài guò ， dàn qīng yì tā yě jué bù yuàn yì dòng yòng shén me ， rú jīn què méi dé xuǎn zé ……
说得不偿失有些太过，但轻易他也绝不愿意动用什么，如今却没得选择……
These swords were no longer than half a foot and emitted an eerie aura but seemed not particularly powerful.
shén me hái néng bǐ xiǎo mìng ér gèng jiā zhòng yào ne ？
什么还能比小命儿更加重要呢？
But Lin Xuan's eyebrows rose; he had a bad feeling, or perhaps a premonition.
pīn le ！
拼了！
Then "pfft" sounded in his ears. The black swords didn't attack their target but instead were thrust into his own body.
“ xiǎo jiā huo ， shì nǐ men bī wǒ de 。”
“小家伙，是你们逼我的。”
Evil energy surged!
tiān fú lǎo zǔ yǎo yá qiè chǐ de shuō ， liǎn shàng nǎ lǐ hái yǒu yī sī xiào róng ， fǎn ér chōng mǎn le zhēng níng zhī sè 。
天福老祖咬牙切齿的说，脸上哪里还有一丝笑容，反而充满了狰狞之色。
"What...?"
zhǐ jiàn tā shǒu yī tái 。
只见他手一抬。
Lin Xuan and the others gaped, their bad feelings intensifying from before.
“ sōu sōu ” shēng chuán rù ěr biān ， què shì jì chū le jǐ bǐng hēi sè de xiān jiàn 。
“嗖嗖”声传入耳边，却是祭出了几柄黑色的仙剑。
"Not good, my dear husband, quickly stop him! He's about to use Reverse Spirit Mystic Yin Art, which can boost his power to that of a False Daoist through the consumption of primordial force."
zhè xiē xiān jiàn zhǎng bù guò bàn chǐ ， huī méng méng de ， sàn fà chū yī gǔ guǐ yì zhī qì 。
这些仙剑长不过半尺，灰蒙蒙的，散发出一股诡异之气。
"False Daoist?" Lin Xuan's expression changed. "That means he won't be as powerful as Immortal Huayu from long ago, but close enough."
dàn wēi lì sì hū yě bù shèn lì hài de yàng zi 。
但威力似乎也不甚厉害的样子。
"Yes, so... my dear husband, you mustn't let him succeed," Nine Heavens Fairy's face was filled with anxiety. However, her yin essence was restrained, and she couldn't unleash any magical power, no matter how much she wished to.
kě lín xuān què méi tóu yī tiāo ， tā xīn zhōng yǒu bù hǎo de yù gǎn ， huò zhě shuō xīn tóu líng zhào fú xiàn chū lái 。
可林轩却眉头一挑，他心中有不好的预感，或者说心头灵兆浮现出来。
"I understand."
suí hòu “ pū chī ” shēng chuán rù ěr biān ， nà jǐ bǐng hēi sè de xiān jiàn tā méi yǒu yòng yú gōng dí ， ér shì fǎn shǒu chā zài le zì jǐ de shēn tǐ biǎo miàn 。
随后“噗嗤”声传入耳边，那几柄黑色的仙剑他没有用于攻敌，而是反手插在了自己的身体表面。
Lin Xuan struggled to drive his magical power, wanting to summon another treasure, but at this moment, something unexpected happened.
yī shí jiān ， xié qì chōng tiān ！
一时间，邪气冲天！
"Who dares!"
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
Master Tians福 roared as he turned around. A tall girl appeared behind him, holding a dagger-like object and thrusting it down!
lín xuān děng rén chēng mù jié shé ， xīn zhōng bù hǎo de yù gǎn gèng shèn gāng cái xǔ duō 。
林轩等人瞠目结舌，心中不好的预感更甚刚才许多。
It was Mooyue Butterfly!
“ bù hǎo ， fū jūn ， kuài zǔ zhǐ zhè jiā huo ， tā yào shī zhǎn de shì nì líng huàn yīn zhī shù ， tōng guò xiāo hào běn yuán lì liàng de fāng fǎ néng gòu jiāng zì jǐ de shí lì tí shēng dào jiǎ dào zǔ 。”
“不好，夫君，快阻止这家伙，他要施展的是逆灵幻阴之术，通过消耗本源力量的方法能够将自己的实力提升到假道祖。”
She wasn't just skilled in illusion; her innate power allowed for concealment. But facing a True Immortal, approaching quietly was too difficult.
“ jiǎ dào zǔ ？” lín xuān shén sè yī dòng ：“ nà qǐ bù shì bù jí dāng nián de huà yǔ zhēn rén ， yě chà bù liǎo xǔ duō 。”
“假道祖？”林轩神色一动：“那岂不是不及当年的化羽真人，也差不了许多。”
That's why Lin Xuan, Mo'er, and Peacock were attacking.
“ kě yǐ zhè me shuō ， suǒ yǐ …… fū jūn ， nǐ jué bù néng gòu ràng tā chèn xīn rú yì de 。” jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ de liǎn shàng mǎn shì huáng jí zhī sè ， rán ér tā de yuán yīng bèi jìn gù ， fǎ lì gēn běn jiù méi yǒu bàn fǎ shī zhǎn chū ， xīn zhōng zài zháo jí ， yě wú jì kě shī 。
“可以这么说，所以……夫君，你绝不能够让他称心如意的。”九天玄女的脸上满是惶急之色，然而她的元婴被禁锢，法力根本就没有办法施展出，心中再着急，也无计可施。
In reality, they weren't trying to defeat him but rather draw his attention away.
“ zhī dào le 。”
“知道了。”
The more real their attacks appeared, the less he could focus elsewhere.
lín xuān fèn lì qū shǐ zhāo fǎ lì ， xiǎng yào jì chū bié de bǎo wù ， rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ， yì biàn tū qǐ 。
林轩奋力驱使着法力，想要祭出别的宝物，然而就在这时，异变突起。
A clever strategy of feigning a direct attack while setting up an indirect one. They merely pretended to attack; Little Butterfly was responsible for the actual strike.
“ shén me rén ！”
“什么人！”
Sure enough, she got close.
tiān fú lǎo zǔ yī shēng dà hē ， sà rán huí guò tóu lú 。
天福老祖一声大喝，飒然回过头颅。
Success seemed within reach...
yī shēn cái gāo tiǎo de shào nǚ zài tā bèi hòu fú xiàn ér chū ， shǒu zhōng chí zhe yǐ bǐ shǒu mú yàng de bǎo wù ， hěn hěn chā luò ！
一身材高挑的少女在他背后浮现而出，手中持着以匕首模样的宝物，狠狠插落！
But in this moment, Master Tians福 discovered her.
shì huàn yuè é ！
是幻月蛾！
Just one step away from success, Lin Xuan's composure nearly vanished as his heart raced.
cǐ nǚ shàn cháng de kě bù jǐn jǐn shì huàn shù ， yǐn nì yì shì tā de běn mìng shén tōng ， dàn duì fāng shì zhēn xiān zhōng de qiáng zhě ， xiǎng yào qiǎo rán jiē jìn shí zài tài nán le 。
此女擅长的可不仅仅是幻术，隐匿亦是她的本命神通，但对方是真仙中的强者，想要悄然接近实在太难了。
"Little girl, Mooyue Butterfly, do you really think you can harm an Immortal with your abilities?"
suǒ yǐ cái yǒu lín xuān ， yuè ér ， kǒng què de gōng jī 。
所以才有林轩，月儿，孔雀的攻击。
Master Tians福's face was full of a sinister smile. Although he hadn't fully reached the level of False Daoist, he wasn't afraid of a late-stage Tribulation cultivator like Mooyue Butterfly.
qí shí tā men gēn běn jiù bú shì xiǎng yào kè dí ， ér shì xī yǐn duì fāng de zhù yì 。
其实他们根本就不是想要克敌，而是吸引对方的注意。
He raised his right hand to grab her.
ràng duì fāng wú fǎ fēn xīn ér yǐ 。
让对方无法分心而已。
Their plan was good, but at the last moment, they were discovered. They couldn't succeed now.
xū zé shí zhī ， shí zé xū zhī ， zhè shì hěn gāo míng de míng xiū zhàn dào àn dù chén cāng zhī jì 。
虚则实之，实则虚之，这是很高明的明修栈道暗度陈仓之计。
"Little Butterfly, danger!"
tā men sān rén bù guò shì yáng gōng ， xiǎo dié cái shì fù zé zhēn zhèng de shā zhe 。
他们三人不过是佯攻，小蝶才是负责真正的杀着。
Lin Xuan wanted to intervene but was too far away.
guǒ rán ， qián dào le jìn chù 。
果然，潜到了近处。
But Little Butterfly's face showed a strange emotion—neither fear nor terror. Her eyes suddenly sparkled with profundity...
yǎn kàn zhe jiù yào chéng gōng le 。
眼看着就要成功了。
A trace of法则之力.
rán ér zuì hòu ， què hái shì bèi duì fāng fā xiàn le 。
然而最后，却还是被对方发现了。
Almost imperceptible yet incredibly powerful! (To be continued...)
### Ambush!
Or rather, Mo'er's attack had already captured his full attention. In any case, the appearance of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire was extremely sudden.
Master Tians福's face indeed showed a trace of unease. Without further thought, he suddenly raised one hand and pulled out a steel whip from his sleeve, slamming it down towards his head.
As he moved, waves crashed into his ears.
Auras of divine energy swirled, and a great river appeared above his head.
Water to counter fire!
But this power was far more complex than imagined.
The river kept compressing until the entire stream was condensed into a water ball about a foot in diameter.
