yuè ér ， shǎn kāi ”
月儿，闪开”
"Move aside, Moon!"
lín xuān shēn chū shǒu lái ， chōng zhe shēn qián de liǎng jiàn fǎ bǎo yì diǎn ， piāo yún luò xuě jiàn yǔ shòu hún zhī bǎo dùn shí huà wèi qīng lán èr sè de xuán guāng ， yī shǎn zhī hòu chū xiàn zài le guài wù de shēn páng 。
林轩伸出手来，冲着身前的两件法宝一点，飘云落雪剑与兽魂之宝顿时化为青蓝二色的玄光，一闪之后出现在了怪物的身旁。
Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed at the two treasures in front of him. The Flying Cloud Snowfall Sword and the Beast Soul Treasure instantly transformed into a mixture of green and blue mystic light, appearing beside the monster with a flash.
zhōu miǎn liě zuǐ yī xiào ， méi yǒu sī háo wèi jù ， sāi bāng yī gǔ ， cóng kǒu zhōng pēn chū dà tuán de hēi wù ， yíng fēng huà wèi liǎng kē tóu lú dà xiǎo de guǐ zhū ， dī liū liū de yíng shàng qù le 。
周冕咧嘴一笑，没有丝毫畏惧，腮帮一股，从口中喷出大团的黑雾，迎风化为两颗头颅大小的鬼珠，滴溜溜的迎上去了。
Zhou Mian grinned, showing no fear as he spat out a large cloud of black fog from his cheeks. The wind turned it into two ghostly orbs about the size of human heads, which flew towards the monster.
cǐ zhū bìng bù qǐ yǎn ， rán ér què chū zhèn zhèn qī lì de mó hǒu guǐ kū ， yǔ liǎng jiàn gǔ bǎo duì pèng ， jìng sī háo yě bù là xià fēng 。
此珠并不起眼，然而却出阵阵凄厉的魔吼鬼哭，与两件古宝对碰，竟丝毫也不落下风。
These orbs were unremarkable at first glance, but they emitted eerie and terrifying demonic roars that clashed with the ancient treasures without falling behind in any way.
lín xuān biǎo qíng yī chén ， yòu shǒu fān zhuǎn ， shǒu zhōng de shè líng jìng shǎn le jǐ shǎn ， cóng biǎo miàn pēn bó shù shí kē hēi sè de guāng tuán 。
林轩表情一沉，右手翻转，手中的摄灵镜闪了几闪，从表面喷薄数十颗黑色的光团。
Lin Xuan's expression darkened as he flipped his right hand. The Soul Capturing Mirror flashed several times, emitting dozens of black light balls from its surface.
sà rán ， yī zhèn bào liè de shēng yīn chuán lái ， zhǐ jiàn men hū míng hū àn de yuè dòng jǐ xià zhī hòu ， jù hé zài yì qǐ ， bàn suí zhe qīng cuì de míng jiào ， qǔ ér dài zhī de shì yī zhī chǐ xǔ zhǎng de xiǎo niǎo 。
飒然，一阵爆裂的声音传来，只见们忽明忽暗的跃动几下之后，聚合在一起，伴随着清脆的鸣叫，取而代之的是一只尺许长的小鸟。
A crackling sound echoed as the light orbs flickered and coalesced into a small bird about an inch long. This was the result of Lin Xuan's improved control over his spirit energy after significant progress in cultivation.
zhè yě shì lín xuān xiū wèi dà jìn yǐ hòu ， duì yú líng lì de cāo kòng ， néng zuò dào gèng jīng què xì wēi de jié guǒ 。
这也是林轩修为大进以后，对于灵力的操控，能做到更精确细微的结果。
"Go!"
“ qù ！”
“去！”
Lin Xuan gave a sharp command, and the little bird spread its wings and circled before accelerating like a black bolt of lightning towards the monster.
lín xuān yī shēng qīng chì ， xiǎo niǎo zhǎn chì áo xiáng ， huí xuán le yī quān zhī hòu ， měng rán jiā sù ， yóu rú yī dào hēi sè de shǎn diàn ， xiàng zhe duì fāng jī shè ér chū 。
林轩一声轻叱，小鸟展翅翱翔，回旋了一圈之后，猛然加速，犹如一道黑色的闪电，向着对方激射而出。
"It's just a trivial trick!"
“ diāo chóng xiǎo jì ！”
“雕虫小技！”
The monster paid no heed. It extended its right hand, covered with thick, spiky armor, and lunged at the bird to grab it.
guài wù què háo bù zài yì ， yòu shǒu shēn chū ， zhǐ zhǎng jiān fù gài le hòu hòu yī céng dài cì de kǎi jiǎ ， hěn hěn de xiàng zhe xiǎo niǎo zhuā xià 。
怪物却毫不在意，右手伸出，指掌间覆盖了厚厚一层带刺的铠甲，狠狠的像着小鸟抓下。
He didn't consider this transformation technique worth his attention. He wasn't being overconfident; he simply hadn't realized the true power of the Soul Capturing Mirror. Using it as a regular treasure wouldn't be a mistake.
zhè zhǒng tōng líng biàn huà zhī gōng tā cái bù fàng zài yǎn zhōng ， bù néng shuō guài wù tuō dà ， bì jìng tā bù zhī dào shè líng jìng de zhēn zhèng wēi néng a ， dàng zuò pǔ tōng de fǎ bǎo duì fù ， bù chī kuī cái shì guài shì 。
这种通灵变化之功他才不放在眼中，不能说怪物托大，毕竟他不知道摄灵镜的真正威能啊，当作普通的法宝对付，不吃亏才是怪事。
Lin Xuan secretly smiled but showed no outward signs. He raised his right hand and secretly released the Binding Immortal Ball.
lín xuān xīn zhōng àn xǐ ， biǎo miàn què wèi yǒu sī háo xiǎn lù ， yòu shǒu yī yáng ， tōu tōu jiāng fù xiān qiú yě jì le chū qù 。
林轩心中暗喜，表面却未有丝毫显露，右手一扬，偷偷将缚仙球也祭了出去。
The monster's armor-like layer on its body was as hard as steel, and he intended to crush the bird with one grab. He succeeded in doing so, but the result was far from what he expected!
guài wù shēn tǐ biǎo miàn de nà céng kǎi jiǎ jiān ruò jīng tiě ， yuán běn xiǎng jiāng xiǎo niǎo yī zhuā ér miè ， tā yě què shí bàn dào le ， kě xī jié guǒ què yǔ xiǎng xiàng de dà bù xiāng tóng a ！
怪物身体表面的那层铠甲坚若精铁，原本想将小鸟一抓而灭，他也确实办到了，可惜结果却与想象的大不相同啊！
The bird turned into a cluster of sparkling light points that clung to his body without dispersing.
xiǎo niǎo bèi zhuā chéng le diǎn diǎn xīng guāng ， què jù ér bù sàn de fù zhuó zài le tā de shēn shàng 。
小鸟被抓成了点点星光，却聚而不散的附着在了他的身上。
Zhou Mian was taken aback, sensing something amiss. He tried to shake off those light points, but before he could, they inexplicably absorbed the magic energy.
guài wù yī lèng ， yǐn yǐn jué de yǒu xiē bù tuǒ ， máng yī dǒu shēn tǐ ， xiǎng yào jiāng nà xiē xīng guāng dàn chū qù ， kě mó qì shàng wèi chū ， què mò míng qí miào de bèi guāng diǎn xī shōu le 。
怪物一愣，隐隐觉得有些不妥，忙一抖身体，想要将那些星光弹出去，可魔气尚为出，却莫名其妙的被光点吸收了。
"Hmm?"
“ yí ？”
“咦？”
Zhou Mian's face showed shock as sweat dripped from his forehead. He realized he had fallen into Lin Xuan's trap and roared, wrapping both ghostly claws around him while his demonic aura surged violently.
zhōu miǎn mǎn liǎn jīng yì ， é tóu shàng jìn chū le hàn dī ， zhè cái zhī dào zì jǐ shàng le duì fāng de dà dāng ， yī shēng nù hǒu ， liǎng zhǐ guǐ zhǎo huán bào ， shēn shàng de mó qì jù liè fān yǒng ……
周冕满脸惊异，额头上浸出了汗滴，这才知道自己上了对方的大当，一声怒吼，两只鬼爪环抱，身上的魔气剧烈翻涌……
Lin Xuan, seeing this, smiled inwardly but remained calm on the surface. He raised his hands and cast a new spell, causing several silver threads to appear three feet in front of the monster.
duì fāng yī xīn xiǎng yào zhèng tuō zhè qí guài guāng diǎn de shù fù ， què méi yǒu zhù yì dào shù shí gēn yín sī yǐ jīng chū xiàn zài le tā shēn qián sān chǐ zhī chù 。
对方一心想要挣脱这奇怪光点的束缚，却没有注意到数十根银丝已经出现在了他身前三尺之处。
"Capture!"
“ shōu ！”
“收！”
Lin Xuan's hands closed as those silver threads suddenly appeared, overlapping like waves, rushing towards the monster.
lín xuān shuāng shǒu yī hé ， nà xiē yín sī tū rán xiǎn xiàn ， chóng chóng dié dié ， rú bō làng yì bān ， xiàng zhe guài wù yǒng qù le 。
林轩双手一合，那些银丝突然显现，重重叠叠，如波浪一般，向着怪物涌去了。
Zhou Mian was immediately bound from head to toe. His face darkened with rage as he struggled against the strange light points. However, his complexion turned gray, indicating that this was a powerful technique that severely drained his essence energy.
shuāng shǒu shuāng jiǎo lì kè bèi kǔn zhù ， zhōu miǎn dà jīng ， xù ér dà nù ， liǎn shàng yīn yún mì bù ， xī le kǒu qì ， bàn suí zhe gē bēng ， gē bēng de shēng xiǎng ， zhè cì bù zhǐ shì shǒu wàn ， shǒu zhǒu děng guān jié ， zhěng gè shǒu bì shàng zhǎng chū liǎo wú shù dài zhe jiān cì dì gǔ rèn dào gōu 。
双手双脚立刻被捆住，周冕大惊，续而大怒，脸上阴云密布，吸了口气，伴随着咯嘣，咯嘣的声响，这次不止是手腕，手肘等关节，整个手臂上长出了无数带着尖刺地骨刃倒钩。
Despite the loss of mobility, those bone blades, which were sharp and dangerous, cut through many of the silver threads created by the Binding Immortal Ball. Given time, Zhou Mian would regain freedom, but for Lin Xuan, even a slight delay was enough.
bù guò tā de liǎn sè yě huī bài le xià qù ， xiǎn rán ， zhè shì yī zhǒng dà sǔn yuán qì de shén tōng ， dàn nà xiē gǔ rèn yě fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， fù xiān qiú suǒ huà de yín sī lián fǎ bǎo yě wèi bì néng sǔn qí fēn háo ， què bèi tā qiē duàn le bù shǎo 。
不过他的脸色也灰败了下去，显然，这是一种大损元气的神通，但那些骨刃也非同小可，缚仙球所化的银丝连法宝也未必能损其分毫，却被他切断了不少。
The ancient treasures used earlier were just prelude; the real weapon was this newly refined Poison Flame.
zhào zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng ， yòng bù liǎo duō jiǔ ， tā jiù kě yǐ chóng xīn huī fù xíng dòng de zì yóu ， bù guò tuō yán de shí jiān suī rán shāo duǎn le yì diǎn ， duì lín xuān ér yán ， què yǐ jīng zú gòu 。
照这种情况，用不了多久，他就可以重新恢复行动的自由，不过拖延的时间虽然稍短了一点，对林轩而言，却已经足够。
Lin Xuan glanced at the flickering Green Illusory Mystic Fire in his hand and exhaled some spirit energy. After absorbing it, the fire contracted and transformed into a green snake about an inch long with a thumb's thickness, which lunged towards the monster.
gāng cái shǐ yòng de jǐ jiàn gǔ bǎo ， bù guò shì qián xì bà le ， zhēn zhèng de shā shǒu jiǎn ， hái shì zhè xīn liàn chéng de dú yàn 。
刚才使用的几件古宝，不过是前戏罢了，真正的杀手锏，还是这新炼成的毒焰。
Zhou Mian's pupils constricted as he was already under the influence of demonic possession, but memories from his original self were still intact. He vividly remembered how Lin Xuan had used this strange flame to melt his own treasure, so he didn't dare to confront it directly. However, with the Binding Immortal Ball and Soul Capturing Mirror binding him, he found it difficult to dodge.
lín xuān kàn le shǒu zhōng tiào dòng le bì huàn yōu huǒ yī yǎn ， yī kǒu líng qì pēn chū ， cǐ huǒ xī shōu yǐ hòu ， yī suō yī shōu ， huà wèi le yī chǐ xǔ zhǎng ， mǔ zhǐ cū xì dì bì lǜ xiǎo shé ， áng tǔ xīn ， xiàng zhe duì fāng pū guò qù le 。
林轩看了手中跳动了碧幻幽火一眼，一口灵气喷出，此火吸收以后，一缩一收，化为了一尺许长，拇指粗细地碧绿小蛇，昂吐芯，向着对方扑过去了。
Seeing the green fire snake approaching, Zhou Mian was terrified as demonic energy surged from his body. He roared in defiance, trying to break free at the last moment.
zhōu miǎn bù yóu de tóng kǒng wēi suō ， suī rán cǐ kè ， tā yǐ jīng bèi mó xìng tūn shì ， shī qù le zì wǒ ， bù guò yī xiē jì yì ， hái shì bèi zhè guài wù gěi wán zhěng de jì chéng le xià lái 。
周冕不由得瞳孔微缩，虽然此刻，他已经被魔性吞噬，失去了自我，不过一些记忆，还是被这怪物给完整的继承了下来。
Lin Xuan's expression turned strange. "This fool is asking for death."
lín xuān céng jīng yòng zhè gǔ guài de huǒ yàn ， jiāng tā běn mìng fǎ bǎo róng huà de qíng jǐng hái lì lì zài mù ， zì rán bù gǎn yìng jiē ， xiǎng yào duǒ shǎn ， kě xī zài fù xiān qiú yǔ shè líng jìng shuāng chóng jìn gù xià què shí zài wéi nán 。
林轩曾经用这古怪的火焰，将他本命法宝融化的情景还历历在目，自然不敢硬接，想要躲闪，可惜在缚仙球与摄灵镜双重禁锢下却实在为难。
Facing this rare opportunity, Lin Xuan wouldn't miss it. He cast a spell with both hands, and the green fire snake changed direction, diving from above into the monster's open mouth.
yǎn jiàn bì lǜ huǒ shé yǐ jīng lái dào le shēn qián ， guài wù dà wèi jīng kǒng ， hún shēn mó qì kuáng yǒng ér chū ， yǎng tiān nù hǒu ， sì hū xiǎng yào zài zuì hòu de shí kè zhèng tuō shù fù 。
眼见碧绿火蛇已经来到了身前，怪物大为惊恐，浑身魔气狂涌而出，仰天怒吼，似乎想要在最后的时刻挣脱束缚。
Puff! Zhou Mian's body froze as his face showed extreme fear.
lín xuān jiàn le ， liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī gǔ guài zhī sè 。
林轩见了，脸上露出一丝古怪之色。
Lin Xuan sighed in relief. The monster's abilities were formidable; even a peak Condensation Core cultivator would struggle to match them.
“ zhè ge bái chī ， jiǎn zhí shì zì jǐ zhǎo sǐ 。”
“这个白痴，简直是自己找死。”
If his Green Illusory Mystic Fire was fully refined, eliminating this opponent wouldn't be difficult. However, with its current state, he had only about a fifty percent chance.
lín xuān nán nán dí gū le yī jù ， miàn duì zhè qiān zǎi nán féng de liáng jī ， tā zì rán shuō shén me yě bú huì cuò guò ， shuāng shǒu huī dòng ， biàn huàn le yí gè fǎ jué ， nà bì lǜ huǒ shé xíng jìn de fāng xiàng dùn shí gǎi biàn le ， huá guò yī dào yōu měi de hú xiàn ， cóng shàng fāng fǔ chōng ér xià ， zuān rù le guài wù yīn yǎng tiān nù hǒu ér zhāng kāi de zuǐ bā 。
林轩喃喃嘀咕了一句，面对这千载难逢的良机，他自然说什么也不会错过，双手挥动，变幻了一个法诀，那碧绿火蛇行进的方向顿时改变了，划过一道优美的弧线，从上方俯冲而下，钻入了怪物因仰天怒吼而张开的嘴巴。
But now that it was inside the body, things changed significantly.
pū ， yī shēng qīng xiǎng ， zhōu miǎn de shēn tǐ sà rán jiāng zhù ， jiē zhe liǎn shàng jiù lù chū le kǒng jù wú bǐ dì shén sè 。
噗，一声轻响，周冕的身体飒然僵住，接着脸上就露出了恐惧无比地神色。
Almost instantly, strange green patches appeared on the monster's surface, and some areas even started smoking. His face showed extreme pain.
yǔ zhī xiāng fǎn ， lín xuān zé sōng le kǒu qì ， zhè guài wù de shén tōng zhī qiáng ， jiù suàn shì níng dān qī dǐng fēng de xiū zhēn ， yě pāi mǎ dōu bǐ bù shàng 。
与之相反，林轩则松了口气，这怪物的神通之强，就算是凝丹期顶峰的修真，也拍马都比不上。
Zhou Mian was alarmed. Even his demonic body, which was formidable, wouldn't be affected by Pure Yang Fire. However, this strange flame contained highly corrosive poison that he couldn't resist. A hole about an inch in size began to form from his dantian, expanding continuously despite his efforts.
píng xīn ér lùn ， ruò zì jǐ de bì huàn yōu huǒ yǐ rán dà chéng ， miè tā zì rán bù zài huà xià ， bù guò jiù xiàn zài zhè zhǒng bàn diào zi de shuǐ píng ， zuì duō yě jiù wǔ chéng de bǎ wò 。
平心而论，若自己的碧幻幽火已然大成，灭他自然不在话下，不过就现在这种半吊子的水平，最多也就五成的把握。
The monster gritted his teeth as a mixture of hatred and despair appeared on his face. He punched his chest, and the identical black infant reappeared.
bù guò jì rán jìn rù le tā dì shēn tǐ nèi bù ， qíng kuàng zì rán jiù lìng dāng bié lùn le 。
不过既然进入了他地身体内部，情况自然就另当别论了。
Lin Xuan ignored it and closed his hands, channeling immense power into the fire. With a loud crack, the green flames engulfed the monster's remains.
jī hū shì yī zhǎ yǎn ， guài wù de shēn tǐ biǎo miàn jiù fú xiàn chū le guǐ yì de lǜ sè ， bù shǎo dì fāng shèn zhì kāi shǐ mào yān ， liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng gèng shì tòng kǔ dào le jí diǎn 。
几乎是一眨眼，怪物的身体表面就浮现出了诡异的绿色，不少地方甚至开始冒烟，脸上的表情更是痛苦到了极点。
The strange immortal embryo separated from its body, leaving behind a demonic form that was now devoid of spirit energy. The Poison Flame reduced it to dust, carried away by the wind.
zhōu miǎn dà hài ， yǐ tā mó huà hòu kān chēng qiáng hèng biàn tài de shēn tǐ ， zì rán bù pà chún yáng dān huǒ de gōng jī ， jiù suàn jìn rù le tǐ nèi ， yě kě yǐ yòng mó qì bāo guǒ ， ràng zàn shí bù néng zuò ， kě duì fāng zhè qí guài de huǒ yàn lǐ ， jìng rán hán yǒu fǔ shí xìng jí qiáng dì jù dú 。
周冕大骇，以他魔化后堪称强横变态的身体，自然不怕纯阳丹火的攻击，就算进入了体内，也可以用魔气包裹，让暂时不能作，可对方这奇怪的火焰里，竟然含有腐蚀性极强地剧毒。
However, Lin Xuan had given the strange demon infant enough time to escape before separating from his body.
tā suī rán diào dòng le hún shēn de zhēn yuán lái dǎng ， kě hái shì qǐ bù liǎo sī háo zuò yòng ， hěn kuài ， yóu dān tián kāi shǐ ， bèi róng huà chū le yí gè mǔ zhǐ dà xiǎo de dòng ， kàn qǐ lái sì hū bìng bù yán zhòng ， kě què zài bù tíng de kuò dà 。
他虽然调动了浑身的真元来挡，可还是起不了丝毫作用，很快，由丹田开始，被溶化出了一个拇指大小的洞，看起来似乎并不严重，可却在不停的扩大。
After detaching itself, the infant's figure flickered and turned into a black ray shooting towards the distant horizon. However, it was intercepted by a large black net.
guài wù yǎo le yǎo yá ， liǎn shàng fú xiàn chū yuàn dú yǔ jué wàng xiāng jiāo zhī de shén sè 。
怪物咬了咬牙，脸上浮现出怨毒与绝望相交织的神色。
This wasn't a trap left behind by Lin Xuan; it was an instinctive reaction between master and servant. Moon wouldn't let this strange creature escape.
shēn chū quán tou ， chuí le chuí xiōng kǒu ， pū ， nà miàn róng yǔ tā yī mú yī yàng de hēi sè yīng ér chū xiàn le 。
伸出拳头，捶了捶胸口，噗，那面容与他一模一样的黑色婴儿出现了。
The demon infant was caught off guard and crashed into the net.
lín xuān què shì ruò wú dǔ ， shuāng shǒu yī hé ， fǎ lì kuáng yǒng ér rù ， hōng de yī xià ， bì lǜ huǒ yàn téng shēng ér qǐ ， bāo guǒ zhù guài wù de cán qū 。
林轩却视若无睹，双手一合，法力狂涌而入，轰的一下，碧绿火焰腾升而起，包裹住怪物的残躯。
Moon quickly cast a spell to gather the net around the infant.
gǔ guài yuán yīng lí tǐ ， nà mó qū běn jiù líng xìng dà shī ， cǐ xiāo bǐ zhǎng ， zài yě méi yǒu huán shǒu de lì liàng ， bèi dú yàn huà wèi le chén āi ， suí fēng piāo sàn 。
古怪元婴离体，那魔躯本就灵性大失，此消彼长，再也没有还手的力量，被毒焰化为了尘埃，随风飘散。
The demon infant still tried to resist, raising its hand with malice. Lin Xuan frowned as a green beam shot out from his hand, entering the net before transforming back into a talisman that stuck to the demon infant's forehead.
dàn lín xuān zhè me zuò ， xiǎn rán yě gěi le nà gǔ guài mó yīng táo lí de shí jiān 。
但林轩这么做，显然也给了那古怪魔婴逃离的时间。

"Move aside, Moon!"
Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed at the two treasures in front of him. The Flying Cloud Snowfall Sword and the Beast Soul Treasure instantly transformed into a mixture of green and blue mystic light, appearing beside the monster with a flash.
Zhou Mian grinned, showing no fear as he spat out a large cloud of black fog from his cheeks. The wind turned it into two ghostly orbs about the size of human heads, which flew towards the monster.
These orbs were unremarkable at first glance, but they emitted eerie and terrifying demonic roars that clashed with the ancient treasures without falling behind in any way.
"Damn!"
Lin Xuan's expression darkened as he flipped his right hand. The Soul Capturing Mirror flashed several times, emitting dozens of black light balls from its surface.
A crackling sound echoed as the light orbs flickered and coalesced into a small bird about an inch long. This was the result of Lin Xuan's improved control over his spirit energy after significant progress in cultivation.
