百炼成仙第四卷七星岛第五百五十三章环施水阁
Chapter 4: Seven-Star Island, Chapter 553 - The Water Pavilion of the Circular Application
xuān suī rán yě “ ér ” de shēn fèn yǒu suǒ cāi yí 。 dàn bìng bù dǎ suàn shí tā yǐ bù rù le fāng shì 。
轩虽然也“儿”的身份有所猜疑。但并不打算时他已步入了坊市。
Xuan was somewhat suspicious about the "child" identity but had no intention to reveal it as he entered the market.
guī mó dào hái zhēn de bù xiǎo 。
规模倒还真的不小。
The scale was truly impressive.
wàng zhuó yǎn qián de guǎng chǎng 。 lín xuān yě yǒu xiē jīng yà 。 yuán běn àn zhào tā de xiǎng fǎ 。 yí gè qū qū èr jí dǎo yǔ shàng de mén pài 。 suǒ jīng yíng de fāng shì néng yǒu duō dà 。 méi xiǎng dào yuǎn yuǎn chāo guò le zì jǐ de yù qī a ！
望着眼前的广场。林轩也有些惊讶。原本按照他的想法。一个区区二级岛屿上的门派。所经营的坊市能有多大。没想到远远超过了自己的预期啊！
Looking at the square before him, Lin Xuan was surprised. Originally, based on his thoughts, a minor second-level island's sect would have a small bazaar. But this far exceeded his expectations!
nà guǎng chǎng zhàn de zú yǒu shù mǔ 。 shàng miàn cuò luò yǒu zhì de fēn bù zhe wú shù de diàn pù 。
那广场占的足有数亩。上面错落有致的分布着无数的店铺。
That square covered several acres and was dotted with countless shops. Some were wooden pavilions while others were large stone houses made of dark green stones. However, the most eye-catching structure was an odd-looking building that resembled a giant shell. The surface even exuded faint demonic aura.
yǒu mù zhì lóu gé 。 yě yǒu jù dà qīng shí duī qì ér chéng de shí wū 。 bù guò zuì rě yǎn de hái shì yī zuò xī qí gǔ guài de jiàn zhù 。 měng yī kàn 。 jìng shì yī zhī jù dà de ké 。 ér qiě bèi ké de biǎo miàn 。 yǒu dàn dàn de yāo qì chū 。
有木质楼阁。也有巨大青石堆砌而成的石屋。不过最惹眼的还是一座稀奇古怪的建筑。猛一看。竟是一只巨大的壳。而且贝壳的表面。有淡淡的妖气出。
Could it be that this was crafted from the shell of some slain beast?
nán dào zhè jìng shì zhǎn shā shén me yāo shòu yǐ hòu 。 de ké zuò chéng de ？
难道这竟是斩杀什么妖兽以后。的壳做成的？
Lin Xuan had seen many things in his travels but still felt amazed by the sights here.
lín xuān yě suàn jiàn guǎng 。 dàn lái dào zhè yì yù 。 què yě yǒu dà kāi yǎn jiè zhī gǎn 。
林轩也算见广。但来到这异域。却也有大开眼界之感。
The number of cultivators within the market wasn't small, though their cultivation levels were mostly low. Lin Xuan's late-stage Foundation Establishment stage showed he was no ordinary customer. While notstand out like a crane among chickens (standing out like a crane among chickens), he certainly stood out as an expert.
fāng shì zhōng de shì shù liàng dào yě bù shǎo 。 bù guò xiū wèi dà duō bù gāo 。 lín xuān suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de zhù jī hòu qī de xiū wèi 。 suī rán bù néng shuō shì hè lì jī qún 。 dàn yě suàn shì nán de de gāo shǒu 。
坊市中的士数量倒也不少。不过修为大多不高。林轩所表现出来的筑基后期的修为。虽然不能说是鹤立鸡群。但也算是难的的高手。
Thus, all the cultivators present greeted him with respect and fear. Lin Xuan nodded inwardly; it seemed that in any world, strength truly spoke louder than words.
gù ér shàng de xiū wú bù lù chū gōng jìng wèi jù zhī sè 。 lín xuān àn àn diǎn tóu 。 kàn lái bù guǎn shì zài nǎ lǐ 。 xiū xiān jiè guǒ rán dōu shì yǐ shí lì shuō huà de 。
故而上的修无不露出恭敬畏惧之色。林轩暗暗点头。看来不管是在哪里。修仙界果然都是以实力说话的。
Lin Xuan walked slowly around before heading towards the giant shell-like structure.
lín xuān xú xú ér xíng 。 xiān zài fù jìn guàng le yī 。 suí hòu jiù mài bù xiàng nà jù dà de bèi ké zǒu qù le 。
林轩徐徐而行。先在附近逛了一。随后就迈步向那巨大的贝壳走去了。
He chose this shop for two reasons: first, its unique design attracted him; second, it had the highest foot traffic among all shops here. This indicated a higher level of power compared to other stalls. Lin Xuan had no interest in going to smaller shops to look for anything.
lín xuān huì xuǎn zhè jiā diàn pù 。 yī lái 。 què shí wèi gǔ guài de zào xíng suǒ xī yǐn 。 èr lái zhè jiā diàn pù de rén liú liàng zuì dà 。 zhè yì diǎn jiù kě yǐ kàn chū 。 bǐ biān de pù zi gèng yǒu shí lì 。 lín xuān kě méi yǒu xìng qù qù nà xiē xiǎo diàn pù tiāo xuǎn shén me dōng xī 。
林轩会选这家店铺。一来。确实为古怪的造型所吸引。二来这家店铺的人流量最大。这一点就可以看出。比边的铺子更有实力。林轩可没有兴趣去那些小店铺挑选什么东西。
The interior was vast. The entrance hall alone spanned several dozen feet. Counters were lined with various items: spiritual artifacts, materials, talismans… everything under the sun. It seemed like one could buy any item a cultivator might need here.
lǐ kuān guǎng yǐ jí 。 guāng jìn mén hòu de dà tīng 。 jiù yǒu shù shí zhàng de yàng zi 。 guì tái hòu luó liè zhe bù shǎo shì wù 。 líng qì 。 liào fǎ bǎo …… yù tǒng 。 bù yī zú 。 jìng xiàng shì xiū xiān zhě suǒ xū yào de rèn hé dōng xī zhè lǐ dōu néng mǎi shì de ……
里宽广以极。光进门后的大厅。就有数十丈的样子。柜台后罗列着不少事物。灵器。料法宝……玉筒。不一足。竟像是修仙者所需要的任何东西这里都能买似的……
Lin Xuan was surprised. Such a treasure trove existed in Youzhou as well but only a few such shops. He hadn't expected to see it so easily on Seven-Star Island's Cloud Sea. The prosperity of this region’s cultivation world indeed far surpassed that of Youzhou.
lín xuān yǒu xiē jīng yà le 。 zhè zhǒng bǎi bǎo diàn yōu zhōu yě yǒu 。 dàn bù guò liáo liáo shù jiā ér yǐ 。 méi xiǎng dào qī xīng dǎo yún hǎi suí biàn yī zuò fāng shì jiù néng kàn dào 。 kàn lái cǐ de xiū xiān jiè de fán róng 。 guǒ rán yuǎn yuǎn shèng guò le yōu zhōu 。
林轩有些惊讶了。这种百宝店幽州也有。但不过寥寥数家而已。没想到七星岛云海随便一座坊市就能看到。看来此的修仙界的繁荣。果然远远胜过了幽州。
The interior hall merely displayed samples, yet the quality seemed not too low. Several cultivators were standing in front of items they found interesting, discussing them. A few young girls in green aprons greeted him with smiles.
dà tīng lǐ miàn jǐn jǐn shì yàng pǐn ér yǐ dàn pǐn zhì sì hū yě bù suàn dī shù míng xiū shì zhèng zhàn zài zì jǐ xìng qù de shì wù qián miàn píng tóu lùn zú ér jǐ gè qīng yī xiǎo mào de huǒ jì zé mǎn liǎn hán xiào de zhāo hū 。
大厅里面仅仅是样品而已但品质似乎也不算低数名修士正站在自己兴趣的事物前面评头论足而几个青衣小帽的伙计则满脸含笑的招呼。
Lin Xuan's entry naturally drew many people's attention. After all, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was definitely a big customer.
lín xuān de jìn rù 。 zì rán yě yǐn qǐ bù shǎo rén zhù yì le 。 bì jìng néng yǒu zhù jī hòu qī de xiū wèi kěn dìng shì dà zhǔ gù 。
林轩的进入。自然也引起不少人注意了。毕竟能有筑基后期的修为肯定是大主顾。
A young woman dressed in a light green robe approached and bowed: "Welcome, senior. Please feel free to browse our shop, the Ring Application Water Pavilion. If you need anything, just let us know. What do you wish to purchase?"
yī wèi shēn chuān qīng sè luó qún zuò nǚ dǎ bàn nǚ xiū zǒu le guò lái 。 liǎn yī lǐ ：“ huān yíng qián bèi guāng lín huán shī shuǐ gé 。 yǒu shén me xū yào jǐn guǎn fēn fù 。 bù zhī dào nín yào mǎi xiē shén me dōng dōng 。”
一位身穿青色罗裙做女打扮女修走了过来。敛一礼：“欢迎前辈光临环施水阁。有什么需要尽管吩咐。不知道您要买些什么东东。”
"Ring Application Water Pavilion?" Lin Xuan blinked. "Isn't this shop operated by the Colorful Shadow Sect?"
“ huán shī shuǐ gé ？” lín xuān zhǎ le zhǎ yǎn ：“ nán dào zhè jiā pù zi bú shì yàn yǐng mén suǒ kāi ？”
“环施水阁？”林轩眨了眨眼：“难道这家铺子不是艳影门所开？”
"Haha, Senior jests. The Ring Application Water Pavilion ranks among the top five in the Cloud Sea's major merchant guilds and has branches on every island. How could it be run by the Colorful Shadow Sect? We merely use their premises," the young woman said with a hint of surprise before adding proudly, "Senior, what would you like to buy?"
“ hē hē 。 qián bèi shuō xiào le 。 wǒ men huán shī shuǐ gé zài yún hǎi gè dà shāng méng zhōng 。 yě shì pái qián wǔ wèi de gè gè dǎo yǔ shàng dōu yǒu fēn hào zěn me huì shì yàn yǐng mén suǒ kāi 。 bù guò shì jiè yòng tā men de de pán 。” shào nǚ liǎn shàng lù chū chī jīng zhī sè suí jí jiù lüè dài yī sī ào qì de shuō ：“ qián bèi 。 nǐ xiǎng yào mǎi diǎn shén ？”
“呵呵。前辈说笑了。我们环施水阁在云海各大商盟中。也是排前五位的各个岛屿上都有分号怎么会是艳影门所开。不过是借用他们的的盘。”少女脸上露出吃惊之色随即就略带一丝傲气的说：“前辈。你想要买点什？”
"Let me browse for now." Lin Xuan took out two high-quality yellow earth attribute crystal stones from his pocket and handed them to the young woman.
“ ń 。 xiān suí biàn kàn kàn hǎo le 。” lín xuān yī shuō 。 yī biān cóng huái zhōng qǔ chū liǎng kuài pǐn zhì bù dī de huáng sè tǔ shǔ xìng jīng shí 。 dì dào shào nǚ de shǒu lǐ 。
“嗯。先随便看看好了。”林轩一说。一边从怀中取出两块品质不低的黄色土属性晶石。递到少女的手里。
With money in hand, one must do their duty. Seeing this senior's generosity, the green-robed girl was overjoyed, her demeanor becoming even more respectful.
ná rén qián cái 。 tì rén xiāo zāi 。 jiàn zhè wèi qián bèi rú cǐ dà fāng 。 qīng yī shào nǚ zì rán shì gāo xìng wú bǐ 。 tài dù yuè fā de gōng jìng le qǐ lái 。
拿人钱财。替人消灾。见这位前辈如此大方。青衣少女自然是高兴无比。态度越发的恭敬了起来。
"Senior, our Ring Application Pavilion has everything you could possibly need. We can ensure your visit is as pleasant as possible. Look, this is the Spirit Treasure Tower where various grades of spiritual artifacts are sold. Many were crafted by great masters and have incredible power. There's also that alchemy shop beside it," she said.
“ qián bèi 。 wǒ men huán shī gé de bǎo wù yīng yǒu jìn yǒu 。 jué duì néng ràng nín bīn zhì rú guī 。 nín kàn 。 zhè shì líng bǎo lóu 。 lǐ miàn yǒu zhe gè zhǒng pǐn jiē de líng qì 。 qí zhōng bù shǎo chū zì dà shī de shǒu bǐ 。 wēi lì wú bǐ 。 hái yǒu páng biān zhè jiān dān yào fāng 。 zé chū shòu gè zhǒng dān yào ……”
“前辈。我们环施阁的宝物应有尽有。绝对能让您宾至如归。您看。这是灵宝楼。里面有着各种品阶的灵器。其中不少出自大师的手笔。威力无比。还有旁边这间丹药坊。则出售各种丹药……”
"Alchemical pills?" Lin Xuan's eyes lit up. "Are there any pills that can enhance cultivation and increase one’s magical energy?"
“ dān yào ？” lín xuān tīng zhè lǐ xīn zhōng yī dòng ：“ nà zhǒng néng gòu zēng jìn xiū wèi 。 tí gāo fǎ lì de dān yào yě yǒu ma ？”
“丹药？”林轩听这里心中一动：“那种能够增进修为。提高法力的丹药也有吗？”
"You must be joking, Senior. Such pills are impossible to buy. They're only ordinary auxiliary pills."
“ qián bèi yòu zài kāi wán xiào 。 zhè zhǒng dān yào nǎ kě néng yǒu mǎi de 。 dāng rán shì qí tā de yī xiē fǔ zhù lèi de pǔ tōng dān yào 。”
“前辈又在开玩笑。这种丹药哪可能有买的。当然是其他的一些辅助类的普通丹药。”
Lin Xuan nodded. If such pills were available for purchase, wouldn't it mean that anyone could cultivate by simply taking them instead of relying on their own efforts?
lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu 。 zēng xiū wèi de dān yào ruò yǒu mǎi de 。 nà qǐ shì pǔ tōng rén yě kě yǐ rú zì jǐ yī yàng 。 kào chī yào lái xiū xiān le ？
林轩点了点头。增修为的丹药若有买的。那岂是普通人也可以如自己一样。靠吃药来修仙了？
The green-robed girl continued her introduction: "There's also the Ten Thousand Volumes Pavilion on the left, which sells Five Elements Dao techniques."
nà qīng yī shào nǚ yòu jiē zhe jiè shào 。 hái yǒu zuǒ cè de zhè jiàn wàn juàn gé 。 nǎi shì chū shòu wǔ xíng dào fǎ de 。
那青衣少女又接着介绍。还有左侧的这件万卷阁。乃是出售五行道法的。
"Daoist texts? I want to take a look," Lin Xuan said, tapping his chin. A cold glint appeared in his eyes.
gōng fǎ lèi shū jí 。 zhè wǒ dào yào kàn kàn le 。” lín xuān mō le mō xià bā 。 yǎn zhōng hán máng yī shǎn de shuō dào 。
功法类书籍。这我倒要看看了。”林轩摸了摸下巴。眼中寒芒一闪的说道。
The shock from that young lady at the entrance still lingered. A minor disciple of the Colorful Shadow Sect actually possessed an ancient top-tier technique. Was this just a coincidence or was every cultivator here endowed with such powerful techniques?
zài fāng shì rù kǒu 。 nà wèi ér gū niáng gěi tā de zhèn yī jiù huī zhī qù 。 yàn yǐng mén yī míng xiǎo xiǎo de dì zǐ 。 jū rán shēn huái shàng gǔ dì yī gōng de dǐng jiān shén tōng 。
在坊市入口。那位儿姑娘给他的震依旧挥之去。艳影门一名小小的弟子。居然身怀上古第一功的顶尖神通。
Lin Xuan thought it unlikely but wanted to confirm.
jiū jìng shì qiǎo hé 。 cǐ nǚ jǐn jǐn shì tè lì 。
究竟是巧合。此女仅仅是特例。
"Senior, do you want a cultivation technique?" The green-robed girl's face showed some difficulty.
hái shì zhè qī xīng dǎo yún hǎi de xiū shì 。 rén rén dōu yōng yǒu dǐng jiān gōng fǎ ？
还是这七星岛云海的修士。人人都拥有顶尖功法？
"Why? Didn't you say that the Ten Thousand Volumes Pavilion has all kinds of Daoist techniques available?" Lin Xuan was surprised and said with an unfriendly expression, "Are you trying to trick me?"
lín xuān suī rán jué de hòu yī zhǒng kě néng xìng bù dà 。 dàn yě yào què rèn yī xià 。
林轩虽然觉的后一种可能性不大。但也要确认一下。
"I beg your pardon, Senior. I wouldn’t dare," the green-robed girl panicked and quickly explained, "This is only a second-level island. According to our Water Pavilion's rules, the grades of items here are limited. The Ten Thousand Volumes Pavilion only has Foundation Establishment stage techniques. Given your cultivation level, you must want Condensation Core stage techniques. We don’t have them. If Senior needs one, we can teleport you to a larger island and let you visit its branch."
“ qián bèi xiǎng yào gōng fǎ ？” qīng sè shào nǚ liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī nán sè 。
“前辈想要功法？”青色少女脸上露出一丝难色。
"Ah, I see. It's fine. A Foundation Establishment stage technique will do," Lin Xuan said with a relaxed expression.
“ zěn me le 。 bú shì shuō zhè wàn juàn gé zhōng háng dào fǎ yīng yǒu jìn yǒu me ？” lín xuān yī è 。 miàn lù bù shàn zhī yì de shuō ：“ nán dào shì piàn lín mǒu ？”
“怎么了。不是说这万卷阁中行道法应有尽有么？”林轩一愕。面露不善之意的说：“难道是骗林某？”
He just wanted to know the cultivation level of this region’s cultivators and what types of techniques were available; it didn't matter much.
“ qián bèi xī nù 。 xiǎo nǚ nǎ ér yǒu nà me dà dǎn zi 。” qīng yī nǚ huāng le 。 máng zhū chún qīng qǐ de jiě shì ：“ zhè jǐn jǐn shì yī zuò èr jí yǔ 。 àn zhào wǒ men shī shuǐ gé de guī jǔ 。 cǐ chù shāng pǐn de děng jí yě yǒu xiàn zhì 。 wàn juàn gé zhōng zhǐ yǒu zhù jī qī de gōng fǎ 。 yǐ qián bèi de xiū wèi 。 kěn dìng shì xiǎng yào mǎi níng dān qī de gōng fǎ 。 xiǎo diàn méi yǒu 。 qián bèi ruò shì xū yào 。 xū yào chuán sòng dào gèng dà de dǎo 。 guāng lín nà lǐ de fēn hào 。”
“前辈息怒。小女哪儿有那么大胆子。”青衣女慌了。忙朱唇轻启的解释：“这仅仅是一座二级屿。按照我们施水阁的规矩。此处商品的等级也有限制。万卷阁中只有筑基期的功法。以前辈的修为。肯定是想要买凝丹期的功法。小店没有。前辈若是需要。需要传送到更大的岛。光临那里的分号。”
"Uh…": The young lady was taken aback. This senior seemed strange, but she wasn’t stupid enough to ask inappropriate questions. She bowed respectfully and led Lin Xuan forward.
“ yuán lái shì zhè yàng 。 méi guān xì 。 zhù jī qī de gōng fǎ yì kě 。 lín mǒu bù zài yì de 。” lín xuān biǎo qíng yī huǎn 。 dàn dàn de shuō dào 。
“原来是这样。没关系。筑基期的功法亦可。林某不在意的。”林轩表情一缓。淡淡的说道。
After entering through the archway, they entered a small side hall decorated elegantly with steaming fragrant tea on the table.
tā zhǐ shì xiǎng yào liǎo jiě cǐ de xiū xiān zhě de shuǐ 。 shén me děng jiē de fǎ 。 dào zhēn de méi yǒu yǐng xiǎng 。
他只是想要了解此的修仙者的水。什么等阶的法。倒真的没有影响。
Lin Xuan nodded; the Ring Application Water Pavilion indeed had substantial resources. Just the service alone was commendable.
“ è ……”: yī dāi 。 zhè wèi qián bèi hǎo guài 。 dàn tā xiū wèi suī rán bù gāo 。 dàn yě bú shì xiōng dà wú nǎo 。 zì rán míng bái bù gāi wèn de jiù bié wèn de dào lǐ 。 gōng jìng de xíng le yī lǐ 。 dài zhe lín xuān xiàng qián fāng zǒu qù 。
“呃……”:一呆。这位前辈好怪。但她修为虽然不高。但也不是胸大无脑。自然明白不该问的就别问的道理。恭敬的行了一礼。带着林轩像前方走去。
"Please have a seat, Senior. I'll fetch what you need. Do you prefer an attribute that is easy to cultivate and quick to progress but has lesser powers? Or one that requires more effort but offers greater power? Or something in between?"
jìn le gǒng mén yǐ hòu 。 rù mù dì shì yí gè xiǎo piān tīng 。 lǐ miàn bù zhì diǎn yǎ 。 ér qiě zhuō shàng yǐ jīng bǎi hǎo le rè qì téng téng de xiāng chá 。
进了拱门以后。入目的是一个小偏厅。里面布置典雅。而且桌上已经摆好了热气腾腾的香茶。
Lin Xuan scratched his head; the Water Pavilion wasn’t exaggerating. They had everything.
lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu 。 zhè huán shī shuǐ gé bù kuì lì xióng hòu 。 guāng shì wù jiù méi huà shuō 。
林轩点了点头。这环施水阁不愧力雄厚。光是务就没话说。
"Let's not be so troublesome. I don't care which element or how fast you progress, just get me the most precious and highest-grade technique," Lin Xuan said all at once, clearly stating his desires.
Chapter 4: Seven-Star Island, Chapter 553 - The Water Pavilion of the Circular Application
