jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ de liǎn shàng mǎn shì níng zhòng zhī sè ， tā suī rán bù zhī dào jù tǐ xiáng qíng rú hé ， dàn zhè fān huà ， yě jué fēi wú dì fàng shǐ shén me 。
九天玄女的脸上满是凝重之色，她虽然不知道具体详情如何，但这番话，也绝非无的放矢什么。
Nine Heavenly Goddess's face was filled with a serious expression. Although she didn't know the exact details, this conversation wasn't without purpose.
dāng nián huà yǔ yǔn luò ， tā jiù zài wèi jīn shí jīn rì zuò zhǔn bèi le 。
当年化羽陨落，她就在为今时今日做准备了。
When Feiyu fell, she had been preparing for today’s events back then.
biǎo miàn bù dòng shēng sè ， àn zhōng què zhù yì zhe tián xiāng de jǔ zhǐ jué zé 。
表面不动声色，暗中却注意着田襄的举止抉择。
She remained calm on the surface but secretly observed Tian Xiang's actions and decisions.
chéng rán ， duì fāng de dòng zuò yǐn mì ， dàn duō shǎo hái shì bèi tā kuī tàn dào le yì diǎn duān ní 。
诚然，对方的动作隐秘，但多少还是被她窥探到了一点端倪。
Indeed, his movements were subtle, but she managed to catch a glimpse of his intentions.
kě xī wú fǎ tài jù tǐ ， dàn jiǔ tiān xī rǎng nǎi shì xiāng ěr ， zhè yì diǎn jué duì méi cuò 。
可惜无法太具体，但九天息壤乃是香饵，这一点绝对没错。
Unfortunately, it couldn’t be too specific. However, Nine Heavenly Loam was definitely like a bait; that much was certain.
guāng hú xiàn ， xiān lù xiǎn ！
光弧现，仙路显！
Arcs of light appeared, revealing the path to immortality!
dé dào cǐ bǎo shì kě yǐ fēi shēng chéng xiān ， dàn zài qián lù ， tián xiāng què mái xià le jù dà de wēi xiǎn 。
得到此宝是可以飞升成仙，但在前路，田襄却埋下了巨大的危险。
While obtaining this treasure could lead one to ascend and become an immortal, Tian Xiang had buried significant dangers along the way.
hǎo jiǎo huá de jiā huo ， suī rán shì hěn yīn xiǎn méi cuò ， dàn yě kě yǐ chēng de shàng shì suàn wú yí cè 。
好狡猾的家伙，虽然是很阴险没错，但也可以称得上是算无遗策。
What a cunning fellow! He might be very devious, but he could also be considered a master strategist who left no stone unturned.
jiē xià lái ， zì jǐ gāi zěn me bàn ne ？
接下来，自己该怎么办呢？
Now, what should I do next?
lín xuān zài xīn zhōng sī suǒ ， piàn kè hòu tái qǐ tóu lú ：“ tián xiāng ， nà jiā huo rú jīn shēn zài hé chù ？”
林轩在心中思索，片刻后抬起头颅：“田襄，那家伙如今身在何处？”
Lin Xuan pondered in his heart. After a moment, he raised his head: "Tian Xiang, where is that guy now?"
“ wǒ bù xiǎo de 。”
“我不晓得。”
"I don't know."
“ ń 。” jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ de liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī xiū hè ：“ àn lǐ ， tā yīng gāi yě dào le cǐ chù ， kě rú jīn ， què shì yì diǎn xiāo xī yě wú ， bù zhī dào ， shì bú shì chū le shén me chā cuò ， kě tā shēn wèi dào zǔ ， yòu zěn me kě néng yù jiàn shén me wēi xiǎn ne ？”
“嗯。”九天玄女的脸上露出一丝羞赫：“按理，他应该也到了此处，可如今，却是一点消息也无，不知道，是不是出了什么差错，可他身为道祖，又怎么可能遇见什么危险呢？”
"Ah." Nine Heavenly Goddess's face showed a hint of shyness: "Logically speaking, he should have arrived here as well. But there’s no news at all; I wonder if something went wrong. However, as the Daoist Ancestor, how could he possibly encounter any danger?"
“ nà kě bù yí dìng 。”
“那可不一定。”
"That might not be certain."
lín xuān tīng le ， liǎn shàng què lù chū bù yǐ wéi rán zhī sè ， xiū xiān jiè guāng guài lù lí ， jiù suàn shì zuì qiáng de dào zǔ ， yě bù yì wèi zhe fán shì dōu néng chèn xīn rú yì 。
林轩听了，脸上却露出不以为然之色，修仙界光怪陆离，就算是最强的道祖，也不意味着凡事都能称心如意。
Lin Xuan listened but didn't agree with a dismissive expression on his face. The cultivation world was full of surprises, and even the strongest Daoist Ancestor couldn’t guarantee everything would go according to plan.
“ dàn yuàn rú cǐ 。” jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ tàn le kǒu qì ， liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī xiū sè zhī yì ：“ fū jūn ， nǐ rú jīn yǒu shén me dǎ suàn ？”
“但愿如此。”九天玄女叹了口气，脸上露出一丝羞涩之意：“夫君，你如今有什么打算？”
"I hope so." Nine Heavenly Goddess sighed, her face showing a hint of shyness: "My lord, what are your plans now?"
“ wǒ me ……”
“我么……”
"Well..."
lín xuān yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， liǎn shàng lù chū jǐ fēn chén yín zhī sè 。
林轩以手抚额，脸上露出几分沉吟之色。
Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead with his hand, showing some contemplation on his face.
jiù cháng lǐ lái shuō ， lán sè xīng hǎi shì xiū fù xiān líng tōng dào de guān jiàn zhī wù ， rú jīn jì zài zì jǐ de shǒu lǐ ， cóng mǒu zhǒng jiǎo dù ， yǐ kě shuō lì yú bù bài zhī dì ， dàn tián xiāng bú huì fàng guò zì jǐ 。
就常理来说，蓝色星海是修复仙灵通道的关键之物，如今既在自己的手里，从某种角度，已可说立于不败之地，但田襄不会放过自己。
By common sense, the Blue Star Sea was crucial for repairing the immortal spirit channel. Now that it was in his hands, he could say he was already invincible from a certain angle. But Tian Xiang wouldn't let him go easily.
jiù suàn fēi shēng dào xiān jiè yě táo bù tuō tā zhuī shā dì 。
就算飞升到仙界也逃不脱他追杀地。
Even if he ascended to the Immortal Realm, he would still be pursued by him.
dào zǔ ， chuán shuō zhōng wú dí yì bān de rén wù 。
道祖，传说中无敌一般的人物。
A Daoist Ancestor was an almost invincible figure according to legends.
zì jǐ zěn me huì yǔ zhè yàng de cún zài yǒu ēn yuàn jiū gé 。
自己怎么会与这样的存在有恩怨纠葛。
How could he possibly have any grudge with such an existence?
zì jǐ zhēn shì huà yǔ zhuǎn shì me ？
自己真是化羽转世么？
Was he really Feiyu reincarnated?
hái mò míng qí miào duō chū yí gè lǎo pó 。
还莫名其妙多出一个老婆。
And now, he had an extra wife inexplicably.
ráo shì lín xuān xīn lǐ chéng shòu lì qiáng dà yǐ jí 。 cǐ shí xīn qíng nà yě shì hùn luàn wú bǐ 。
饶是林轩心理承受力强大以极。此时心情那也是混乱无比。
Despite Lin Xuan's extremely strong psychological resilience, his current mood was a chaotic mess filled with disappointment. He hesitated on some decisions.
chōng mǎn le ào sàng zhī yì 。
充满了懊丧之意。
But just having the Blue Star Sea wasn't enough.
yǒu yī xiē ná bù dìng zhǔ yì 。
有一些拿不定主意。
To challenge a Daoist Ancestor, Moer must first be restored to Asura, and his own strength needed to be significantly enhanced from its current level.
kě guāng yǒu lán sè xīng hǎi kěn dìng shì bù gòu dì 。
可光有蓝色星海肯定是不够地。
The journey ahead would be full of hardships, but time was running out. Although Tian Xiang had temporarily disappeared, who knew when he might return here?
xiǎng yào kàng héng dào zǔ ， shǒu xiān yuè ér bì xū huī fù chéng ā xiū luó ， qí cì zì jǐ de shí lì yě yào zài xiàn yǒu de jī chǔ shàng tí shēng xǔ duō 。
想要抗衡道祖，首先月儿必须恢复成阿修罗，其次自己的实力也要在现有的基础上提升许多。
He must prepare as soon as possible.
zhè zhōng jiān bù zhī xū jīng lì duō shǎo jiān nán qū zhé ， piān piān shèng gěi zì jǐ de shí jiān yǐ jīng bù duō 。
这中间不知需经历多少艰难曲折，偏偏剩给自己的时间已经不多。
Nine Heavenly Loam was a must-get.
tián xiāng suī rán zàn shí bù zhī suǒ zōng diào le 。
田襄虽然暂时不知所踪掉了。
Not only because Nine Heavenly Loam involved the secrets of ascension, but also because it was an extraordinary treasure with other uses that could greatly enhance his strength in a short period.
dàn tiān zhī dào tā shén me shí hòu jiù huì huí dào cǐ chù 。
但天知道他什么时候就会回到此处。
Don't ask why Lin Xuan knew this.
zì jǐ bì xū zǎo zuò zhǔn bèi cái kě 。
自己必须早做准备才可。
Because at this moment, he had some mysterious memory fragments surfacing in his mind.
jiǔ tiān xī rǎng zhì zài bì děi 。
九天息壤志在必得。
That wasn’t his own; they were likely memories from his past life.
zhè bù jǐn shì yīn wèi jiǔ tiān xī rǎng shè jí dào fēi shēng de ào mì ， hái yīn wèi zhè jiàn dōng xī běn shēn yì shì bù dé le de bǎo wù ， yǒu zhe qí tā miào yòng de 。
这不仅是因为九天息壤涉及到飞升的奥秘，还因为这件东西本身亦是不得了的宝物，有着其他妙用的。
Perhaps, he really was Feiyu.
shèn zhì duì duǎn shí jiān nèi tí shēng zì jǐ de shí lì dà yǒu hǎo chù 。
甚至对短时间内提升自己的实力大有好处。
Lin Xuan muttered to himself.
bú yào wèn lín xuān wèi hé xiǎo de 。
不要问林轩为何晓得。
But regardless, he no longer had time to dwell on such matters.
nà shì yīn wèi cǐ shí cǐ kè ， tā de xīn zhōng yòu yǒu mò míng qí miào de jì yì suì piàn fú xiàn ér chū 。
那是因为此时此刻，他的心中又有莫名其妙的记忆碎片浮现而出。
I am who I am!
nà bú shì shǔ yú zì jǐ de dōng xī ， duō bàn shì lái zì qián shì de yī xiē jì yì 。
那不是属于自己的东西，多半是来自前世的一些记忆。
Why think about so much?
huò xǔ ， zì jǐ zhēn shì huà yǔ 。
或许，自己真是化羽。
In short, if the enemy doesn't attack first, don’t initiate an assault. Since Tian Xiang didn’t want him to be spared, even as a Daoist Ancestor, Lin Xuan wouldn’t easily give up.
lín xuān zài xīn zhōng dí gū 。
林轩在心中嘀咕。
Perhaps this was the most perilous moment on his path to cultivation.
dàn bù guǎn rú hé ， tā rú jīn yǐ méi yǒu shí jiān jiū jié cǐ wù 。
但不管如何，他如今已没有时间纠结此物。
But he would fight with all his might.
wǒ jiù shì wǒ ！
我就是我！
With that thought, a determined look appeared on his face, indicating he had made his decision: "Let's go! Nine Heavenly Loam will be mine."
hé bì qù sī liáng zhè me duō 。
何必去思量这么多。
He turned to ask: "Do you know where this treasure is, Fairy?"
zǒng ér yán zhī 。 rén bù fàn wǒ wǒ bù fàn rén ， tián xiāng jì rán bù xiǎng jiāng wǒ fàng guò ， jiù suàn tā shì dào zǔ ， zì jǐ yě bú huì qīng yì rèn shū 。
总而言之。人不犯我我不犯人，田襄既然不想将我放过，就算他是道祖，自己也不会轻易认输。
"Of course I do."
huò xǔ ， zhè shì zì jǐ tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù zuì jīng xiǎn de yí mù 。
或许，这是自己踏上修仙之路最惊险的一幕。
Although she found Lin Xuan’s formal address somewhat off-putting and a bit resentful, there was nothing she could do. Such matters couldn’t be rushed.
dàn lín xuān yě huì fèn lì yǔ tā zhōu xuán dào dǐ de 。
但林轩也会奋力与他周旋到底的。
Step by step, they would get closer.
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， tā liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī jiān dìng zhī sè ， xiǎn rán yǐ jīng zuò chū le jué zé ：“ zǒu ， jiǔ tiān xī rǎng huì shì wǒ de náng zhōng wù 。”
想到这里，他脸上露出一丝坚定之色，显然已经做出了抉择：“走，九天息壤会是我的囊中物。”
Since her avatar had such a deep connection with him, it wouldn't make sense for them to have no further connection in this life.
shuō dào zhè lǐ tā zhuǎn guò tóu lú ：“ xiān zi kě zhī dào cǐ bǎo zài nǎ lǐ me ？”
说到这里他转过头颅：“仙子可知道此宝在哪里么？”
Persistence pays off; persistence pays off.
“ zì rán xiǎo de 。”
“自然晓得。”
With that thought, Nine Heavenly Goddess became calm and composed.
suī rán duì lín xuān shēng fēn de chēng hū ， jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ yǒu xiē bù shuǎng 。 yǒu xiē yōu yuàn ， dàn yě wú kě nài hé ， zhè zhǒng shì qíng jí bù dé 。
虽然对林轩生分的称呼，九天玄女有些不爽。有些幽怨，但也无可奈何，这种事情急不得。
"Oh. Please teach me."
yí bù yí bù jiē chù 。
一步一步接触。
Lin Xuan bowed deeply, his expression extremely sincere.
zì jǐ de fēn shēn jì rán néng yǔ tā qíng tóu yì hé ， méi dào lǐ 。 zhè yī shì ， zì jǐ hái huì yǔ tā yǒu yuán wú fēn de 。
自己的分身既然能与他情投意合，没道理。这一世，自己还会与他有缘无分的。
"Of course not,"
jīng chéng suǒ zhì jīn shí wéi kāi ， jīn shí wéi kāi 。
精诚所至金石为开，金石为开。
Nine Heavenly Goddess's laughter was very pleasant. Once she understood this point, she no longer dwelled on the trivialities of their address.
zhè me xiǎng zhe ， jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ yě jiù xīn píng qì hé 。
这么想着，九天玄女也就心平气和。
She waved her right hand, and a green jade pupil flew out, blank at first.
“ ó 。 hái qǐng xiān zi jiào wǒ 。”
“哦。还请仙子教我。”
With her divine sense infused into it, a map quickly appeared.
lín xuān xíng le yī lǐ ， biǎo qíng chéng kěn yǐ jí 。
林轩行了一礼，表情诚恳以极。
Lin Xuan took the map and nodded after checking it. Then he retrieved an Jade Pupil Scroll from his storage bag, stamping hundreds of copies on it.
“ zì rán méi yǒu wèn tí 。”
“自然没有问题。”
"Go!"
jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ de xiào shēng shuǎng lǎng yǐ jí ， xiǎng tōng le zhè diǎn 。 yě jiù bù zài jiū jié qū qū de chēng hū 。
九天玄女的笑声爽朗以极，想通了这点。也就不再纠结区区的称呼。
He waved his sleeves, enveloped by spiritual light, like falling snowflakes, these jade pupil scrolls flew in different directions.
dàn jiàn tā yòu shǒu yī fú 。
但见她右手一拂。
"My lord, why are you doing this?"
yī cuì lǜ de yù tóng fēi lüè ér chū ， què shì kòng bái zhī wù 。
一翠绿的玉瞳飞掠而出，却是空白之物。
Nine Heavenly Goddess's expression was shocked.
jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ jiàng shén shí zhù rù ， hěn kuài jiù lào yìn chū le yī fú dì tú 。
九天玄女将神识注入，很快就烙印出了一幅地图。
"Nine Heavenly Loam is a good treasure. Why should I keep such a precious item to myself? Since we have intelligence, of course, we should share it with fellow Daoists from the Three Thousand Worlds."
lín xuān shēn shǒu jiē guò 。
林轩伸手接过。
"But..."
chá kàn yī fān zhī hòu diǎn le diǎn tóu lú ， suí hòu cóng chǔ wù dài zhōng qǔ chū yù tóng jiǎn ， yī xià zi jiù lào yìn le qiān bǎi fèn zhī duō 。
查看一番之后点了点头颅，随后从储物袋中取出玉瞳简，一下子就烙印了千百份之多。
Nine Heavenly Goddess was anxious, still showing disbelief on her face.
“ qù ba ！”
“去吧！”
However, Yuan and Moer understood Lin Xuan's intentions.
tā xiù páo yī shuǎi ， nà xiē yù tóng jiǎn dùn shí bèi líng máng bāo guǒ ， rú màn tiān huā yǔ yì bān ， cháo zhe bù tóng de fāng xiàng fēi luò 。
他袖袍一甩，那些玉瞳简顿时被灵芒包裹，如漫天花雨一般，朝着不同的方向飞落。
"Are you planning to use those people as scouts?" Moer asked.
“ fū jūn ， nǐ zhè shì wèi hé ？”
“夫君，你这是为何？”
"Yes." Lin Xuan nodded: "The strength of True Immortals varies greatly. But regardless, they are not ordinary great beings. We顶级存在 might not fear them, but facing a Daoist Ancestor, we would be at a disadvantage."
jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ de biǎo qíng dà jīng shī sè 。
九天玄女的表情大惊失色。
"Back then, Asura encountered this point and reversed the immortal spirit channel to wait another five million years. This way, after休养生息and growing stronger, the great powers of the Three Thousand Worlds could have a chance to compete with those in the Immortal Realm."
“ jiǔ tiān xī rǎng shì hǎo dōng xī ， zhè yàng de bǎo wù ， yòu hé bì bì zhǒu zì zhēn ne ， jì rán yǒu le qíng bào ， dāng rán yào hé sān qiān shì jiè de dào yǒu fēn xiǎng le 。”
“九天息壤是好东西，这样的宝物，又何必敝帚自珍呢，既然有了情报，当然要和三千世界的道友分享了。”
"This idea is good, but Moer's past overlooked one detail: humans are selfish. The more people there are, the easier it is for grudges and conflicts to arise. How can great beings from the Three Thousand Worlds be united? They wouldn't even cooperate..."
“ kě ……”
“可……”
"Like now..."
jiǔ tiān xuán nǚ dà jí ， liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng hái shì bù kě sī yì 。
九天玄女大急，脸上的表情还是不可思议。
Lin Xuan sighed: "Since these guys don’t cherish their opportunities well and we can’t rely on them, let's use this situation to our advantage by sending them as scouts to find Nine Heavenly Loam."
dǎo shì yuàn yuàn hé yuè ér míng bái le lín xuān de yòng yì 。
倒是媛媛和月儿明白了林轩的用意。
"But what if someone coincidentally gets lucky and actually finds it?" Little Butterfly asked, puzzled.
“ fū jūn shì xiǎng ， yòng nà xiē rén tàn lù ？”
“夫君是想，用那些人探路？”
"There’s no such thing." Lin Xuan’s expression showed he didn't believe it: "Nine Heavenly Loam is guarded by extremely powerful monsters. Although their strength doesn’t match a Daoist Ancestor, they are far stronger than the top True Immortals. The great powers of the Three Thousand Worlds have unique abilities and spells, but if someone could easily get this treasure, Tian Xiang wouldn't be much better than a sack of wine."
“ bù cuò 。” lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu lú ：“ zhēn xiān de shí lì cēn cī bù qǐ ， dàn bù guǎn rú hé ， zǒng fēi xún cháng de dà néng kě bǐ ， wǒ men zhè xiē dǐng jí cún zài huò zhě bù jù ， kě miàn duì dào zǔ ， què yòu xiāng xíng jiàn zhuō 。”
“不错。”林轩点了点头颅：“真仙的实力参差不起，但不管如何，总非寻常的大能可比，我们这些顶级存在或者不惧，可面对道祖，却又相形见拙。”
"While that’s true, throwing out these treasure maps so carelessly, others won’t hesitate to doubt it. How can they fall for such tricks easily?" Little Butterfly's sweet voice echoed in his ears.
“ dāng nián de ā xiū luó ， yě jiù shì yù jiàn zhè yì diǎn ， suǒ yǐ cái jiāng xiān líng tōng dào nì zhuǎn ， mù dì shì zài děng wǔ bǎi wàn nián ， rú cǐ ， sān qiān shì jiè xiū yǎng shēng xī ， chéng zhǎng qǐ lái de dà néng jiù néng yǔ xiān jiè zhòng rén yǒu yī zhàn zhī lì 。”
“当年的阿修罗，也就是遇见这一点，所以才将仙灵通道逆转，目的是再等五百万年，如此，三千世界休养生息，成长起来的大能就能与仙界众人有一战之力。”
