bǎi liàn chéng xiān dì sì juǎn qī xīng dǎo dì wǔ bǎi wǔ shí liù zhāng shèng de yǔ yù hé
百炼成仙第四卷七星岛第五百五十六章圣的与玉盒
"Alright."
hǎo ba 。”
好吧。”
After a moment's thought, Lin Xuan nodded.
lüè yī sī suǒ 。 lín xuān diǎn le diǎn tóu 。
略一思索。林轩点了点头。
With that, the master and servant set off. They transformed into two different colored streaks of light, like icebergs flying away.
shuō zǒu jiù zǒu 。 zhǔ pú èr rén fēn bié huà wèi liǎng dào bù tóng yán sè de jīng hóng 。 xiàng bīng shān fēi lüè ér qù le 。
说走就走。主仆二人分别化为两道不同颜色的惊虹。像冰山飞掠而去了。
Speaking of this mountain, although Lin Xuan had never explored it, he had observed it from afar.
shuō qǐ cǐ shān 。 lín xuān yǐ suī rán cóng wèi tàn suǒ 。 dàn yě zài yuǎn chù zǐ xì de guān chá guò 。
说起此山。林轩以虽然从未探索。但也在远处仔细的观察过。
Of course, it wasn't constantly erupting. Most of the time, it was calm.
dāng rán bú shì wú shí wú kè dōu chǔ yú pēn fā zhī zhōng 。
当然不是无时无刻都处于喷发之中。
Generally speaking, it would erupt every few months or so, lasting three to four days at a time.
dà bù fèn shí jiān hái píng jìng de 。
大部分时间还平静的。
This frequency was much higher than that of an ordinary volcano.
yì bān shuō lái 。 dà liǎng sān gè yuè huì pēn fā yī cì 。 chí xù sān dào sì tiān bù děng 。
一般说来。大两三个月会喷发一次。持续三到四天不等。
However, what surprised Lin Xuan was that the lava only flowed down to the base of the iceberg and then stopped. Otherwise, his den wouldn't be more than a few miles away from there. Although it had protective禁制, it would still cause trouble.
zhè zhǒng pín lǜ qǐ yì bān de huǒ shān yào gāo de duō 。
这种频率起一般的火山要高的多。
Not long ago, fire had erupted once, so now it was in a calm period. From afar, it looked like a huge body of water, dazzling and beautiful.
rán ér ràng lín xuān gǎn dào qí de shì 。 yán jiāng zuì duō liú dào bīng shān dǐ bù 。 jiù bú huì jì xù qián jìn le 。 fǒu zé zì jǐ de dòng fǔ jù lí nà lǐ bù guò shù lǐ 。 suī yǒu jìn zhì fáng hù 。 què yě shì pǒ wèi má fán de 。
然而让林轩感到奇的是。岩浆最多流到冰山底部。就不会继续前进了。否则自己的洞府距离那里不过数里。虽有禁制防护。却也是颇为麻烦的。
At this distance, with Lin Xuan's Moonlight's speed, it naturally took only an instant to arrive.
ér jiù zài bù jiǔ qián 。 huǒ = céng jīng pēn guò yī cì 。 suǒ yǐ xiàn zài shì chǔ yú píng jìng qī 。 yuǎn yuǎn wàng qù 。 jiù xiàng shì yī kuài jù dà de shuǐ 。 xuàn mù ér měi lì 。
而就在不久前。火=曾经喷过一次。所以现在是处于平静期。远远望去。就像是一块巨大的水。炫目而美丽。
Lin Xuan stared at the volcano's mouth, frowning slightly.
zhè diǎn jù lí 。 yǐ lín xuān yuè ér de dùn sù 。 zì rán shì zhǎ yǎn jiù dào le 。
这点距离。以林轩月儿的遁速。自然是眨眼就到了。
The entrance was enormous, round-shaped, about ten or more丈in diameter. However, the entire cave opening was dark, filled with a strange mist.
lín xuān dīng zháo huǒ shān kǒu 。 méi tóu wēi zhòu 。
林轩盯着火山口。眉头微皱。
This way, he couldn't see what lay below.
zhè rù kǒu jí dà 。 chéng yuán 。 zhí jìng yuē yǒu shí yú zhàng yàng zi 。 rán ér zhěng gè dòng kǒu hēi hū hū de 。 mí màn zhe yī zhǒng qí guài de wù qì 。
这入口极大。呈圆。直径约有十余丈样子。然而整个洞口黑乎乎的。弥漫着一种奇怪的雾气。
Lin Xuan released his divine sense, but it could only penetrate to around thirty or forty丈before the scenery became blurry.
zhè yàng yī lái 。 zì rán kàn bù qīng xià miàn de dōng 。
这样一来。自然看不清下面的东。
"Master, what's going on?"
lín xuān fàng chū shén shí 。 kě yě jǐn néng shēn rù èr sān shí zhàng de yàng zi 。 zài wǎng xià 。 jǐng wù jiù biàn mí mí hū hū 。
林轩放出神识。可也仅能深入二三十丈的样子。再往下。景物就变迷迷糊糊。
Moonlight wrinkled her delicate nose, showing a hint of frustration on her face.
“ shào yé 。 zěn me shì ？”
“少爷。怎么事？”
Lin Xuan didn't answer. He raised his right hand and cast a spell. Whispering under his breath, he aimed at the ground below. A flash of green light appeared, and a ten-meter-long wind dragon emerged, roaring as it rushed down.
yuè ér zhòu le zhòu xiù qì de bí zi 。 liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī ào nǎo zhī yì 。
月儿皱了皱秀气的鼻子。脸上露出一丝懊恼之意。
Wind Dragon术.
lín xuān méi yǒu huí dá 。 tái qǐ yòu shǒu niē le yī fǎ jué 。 kǒu zhōng nán zì yǔ 。 chōng zhe shēn xià yì diǎn 。 qīng guāng lián shǎn 。 yī tóu shí yú zhàng zhǎng de fēng lóng chū xiàn páo xiāo zhe chōng le xià miàn 。
林轩没有回答。抬起右手捏了一法诀。口中喃自语。冲着身下一点。青光连闪。一头十余丈长的风龙出现咆哮着冲了下面。
This was an intermediate-grade five-element Dao technique. However, Lin Xuan performed it effortlessly, showing no signs of strain. Even condensation core stage cultivators might not be able to achieve such proficiency.
fēng lóng shù 。
风龙术。
With the wind dragon leading the way, the mist quickly parted. A green glow enveloped Moonlight as she activated her Nine Heavens Spirit Shield and jumped down without hesitation.
zhè kě shì de jiē zhōng pǐn de wǔ xíng dào fǎ liǎo rán ér lín xuān shī zhǎn chū lái 。 què jǔ zhòng ruò qīng 。 sī háo yě bú jiàn chī lì 。 jí biàn shì níng dān qī dǐng fēng de xiū shì 。 yě bù yí dìng néng yǒu cǐ zào yì 。
这可是的阶中品的五行道法了然而林轩施展出来。却举重若轻。丝毫也不见吃力。即便是凝丹期顶峰的修士。也不一定能有此造诣。
Moonlight's movements were swift; she had already flown into her master's sleeve.
yǒu le fēng lóng kāi dào nà xiē wù qì dùn shí bèi xiàng le liǎng biān lín shēn shàng qīng máng dà qǐ 。 jiāng jiǔ tiān líng dùn kāi qǐ 。 háo bù yóu yù tiào le xià qù 。
有了风龙开道那些雾气顿时被像了两边林身上青芒大起。将九天灵盾开启。毫不犹豫跳了下去。
Lin Xuan began his exploration...
yuè ér dòng zuò gèng shì bù màn yǐ xiān yī bù fēi le zhǔ rén de yī xiù lǐ miàn 。
月儿动作更是不慢已先一步飞了主人的衣袖里面。
At the same time, several dozen miles away from Icefire Island in a cloud sea, a group of cultivators was flying slowly. Their speed wasn't fast, and they were spread out wide as if searching for something.
lín xuān kāi shǐ le tàn xiǎn ……
林轩开始了探险……
The cultivators' realms varied widely, but the lowest were at the base foundation stage. The two leaders were high-stage condensation core cultivators.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí 。 jù lí bīng huǒ dǎo yuē shù shí lǐ de mǒu chù yún hǎi 。
与此同时。距离冰火岛约数十里的某处云海。
One male and one female.
yī duì shù shí rén de xiū shì zhèng xú xú fēi xíng zhe 。 sù dù bù kuài 。 ér qiě sàn de hěn kāi 。 jiù xiàng zài sōu suǒ xún zhǎo shén me dōng xī yì bān 。
一队数十人的修士正徐徐飞行着。速度不快。而且散的很开。就像在搜索寻找什么东西一般。
The man had prominent ears and a dignified appearance, giving off an air of authority. He was about forty years old.
zhè xiē xiū shì de jìng jiè cēn cī bù qí 。 dàn zuì dī yě yǒu zhù jī 。 shǒu de liǎng rén gèng shì níng dān zhōng qī de gāo jiē xiū shì 。
这些修士的境界参差不齐。但最低也有筑基。首的两人更是凝丹中期的高阶修士。
The woman was much younger, in her twenties, wearing a red robe with bare feet. Her beauty could be described as plain but not ugly; she had some appeal, though barely two or three points of attractiveness.
yī nán yī nǚ 。
一男一女。
"Brother耿, that guy really escaped here. We've been out for three days now. If we don't get any news, it won't be easy to explain to the大小姐," said the red-robed woman, frowning with worry.
nán de fāng miàn dà ěr xiāng táng táng gù pàn zhī jiān 。 pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn wēi yán dà yuē sì shí yú suì nián jì 。
男的方面大耳相堂堂顾盼之间。颇有几分威严大约四十余岁年纪。
"Second sister, even if I'm not clear on this, you and I are indeed too careless. We didn't expect a mere base foundation cultivator to have such courage. Fortunately, he has a坤明虫 planted by me. We can track him down from there. He did escape here; that much is certain."
nǚ zǐ zé yào nián qīng de duō 。 èr shí chū tóu 。 shēn chuān hóng yī 。 chì zhe xiù zú 。 róng mào zěn me shuō ne 。 měi tán bù shàng 。 shuō chǒu què yòu tài bù hòu dào le 。 zhǐ néng shuō hái suàn shùn yǎn 。 miǎn qiǎng yǒu yī liǎng fēn zī sè 。
女子则要年轻的多。二十出头。身穿红衣。赤着秀足。容貌怎么说呢。美谈不上。说丑却又太不厚道了。只能说还算顺眼。勉强有一两分姿色。
"Alright. Regardless of how it goes, we must capture the traitor as soon as possible. Only then will大小姐 be willing to forgive us."
“ gěng dà gē 。 nà jiā huo zhēn de táo dào le zhè lǐ 。 wǒ men yǐ jīng chū lái sān tiān le 。 ruò zài méi yǒu xiāo xī 。 huí qù yǐ hòu 。 dà xiǎo jiě nà lǐ kě bù hǎo jiāo dài le 。” hóng nǚ zi xiù méi wēi zhòu 。 mǎn liǎn dān xīn de kāi kǒu 。
“耿大哥。那家伙真的逃到了这里。我们已经出来三天了。若再没有消息。回去以后。大小姐那里可不好交代了。”红女子秀眉微皱。满脸担心的开口。
Before the red-robed woman's words had finished, a sudden cry of pain entered their ears. Then light began to flicker before settling down. A blood mist exploded in the air.
“ èr mèi 。 bù shuō wǒ qīng chǔ 。 zhè jiàn shì qíng què shí shì nǐ wǒ tài guò shū hū 。 méi xiǎng dào qū qū yī zhù jī qī xiū shì 。 yǒu zhè me dà dǎn zi 。 hǎo zài tā shēn shàng yǒu wǒ zhòng xià de kūn míng chóng 。 wǒ men kě yǐ zhào cǐ zhuī zōng 。 tā què shí shì táo dào le qián miàn 。 zhè yì diǎn bú huì yǒu cuò 。”
“二妹。不说我清楚。这件事情确实是你我太过疏忽。没想到区区一筑基期修士。有这么大胆子。好在他身上有我种下的坤明虫。我们可以照此追踪。他确实是逃到了前面。这一点不会有错。”
"What happened?"
“ hǎo ba 。 gěng dà gē bù guǎn rú hé 。 wǒ men yí dìng yào jǐn kuài jiāng | pàn tú ná xià 。 zhǐ yǒu zhè yàng 。 cái néng qǐng dà xiǎo jiě liàng yī èr de 。”
“好吧。耿大哥不管如何。我们一定要尽快将|叛徒拿下。只有这样。才能请大小姐谅一二的。”
The two exchanged glances and quickly flew towards the scene.
hóng yī nǚ zǐ huà yīn wèi luò 。 tū rán yī shēng cǎn hū chuán rù ěr duǒ 。 jiē zhe guāng máng yǒng dòng 。 hěn kuài què yòu chén jì le xià lái 。 kōng qì zhōng bào kāi yī tuán xuè wù 。
红衣女子话音未落。突然一声惨呼传入耳朵。接着光芒涌动。很快却又沉寂了下来。空气中爆开一团血雾。
"This is..."
“ zěn me le ？”
“怎么了？”
Seeing the enormous creature before them, the red-robed woman gasped in shock. The man with the surname also looked astonished.
liǎng rén duì shì yī yǎn 。 máng dùn guāng fēi xiàng liǎo shì fā de 。
两人对视一眼。忙遁光飞向了事发的。
In front of them was a ten-meter-long giant fish.
“ zhè shì 。”
“这是。”
Not only was it huge, but its appearance was completely unnatural. Its head alone took up about one-third of its body.
kàn qīng chǔ yǎn qián de páng rán wù 。 hóng yī nǚ zǐ bù yóu de dào xī le yī kǒu liáng qì 。 gěng xìng xiū shì yě è rán bù yǐ 。
看清楚眼前的庞然物。红衣女子不由的倒吸了一口凉气。耿姓修士也愕然不已。
With an open maw filled with razor-sharp teeth, like sharp needles.
tā men shēn qián shì yī tóu shí zhàng zhǎng de jù dà guài yú 。
他们身前是一头十丈长的巨大怪鱼。
"Scissor Fish. How is that possible? This is a genuine three-stage cloud beast. There's only one second-level Cangui Island nearby; it shouldn't be here," said the red-robed woman, covering her mouth as she widened her bright eyes.
bù jǐn tǐ xíng shuò dà 。 ér qiě zhǎng de bù hé cháng lǐ 。 guāng shì nǎo dài jiù zhàn le zhěng gè shēn tǐ de sān fēn zhī yī 。
不仅体型硕大。而且长的不合常理。光是脑袋就占了整个身体的三分之一。
The man with the surname's face turned pale. Indeed, this was suspicious.
zhāng kāi xuè pén dà kǒu 。 yá chǐ fēng lì wú bǐ 。 jiù xiàng yī gēn gēn de jiān cì 。
张开血盆大口。牙齿锋利无比。就像一根根的尖刺。
However, before he could react, a massive spiritual pressure came from his side. He turned around to see a giant octopus.
“ jiǎn dāo yú 。 zěn me kě néng 。 zhè kě shì huò zhēn jià shí de sān jiē yún shòu 。 zhè fù jìn zhǐ yǒu yí gè èr jí de cāng cuì dǎo 。 àn lǐ bù kě néng yóu cǐ wù 。” hóng yī nǚ zǐ yòng shǒu wǔ zhù xiǎo kǒu 。 yī duì hái suàn líng dòng de xìng mù zhēng de dà dà de 。
“剪刀鱼。怎么可能。这可是货真价实的三阶云兽。这附近只有一个二级的苍翠岛。按理不可能由此物。”红衣女子用手捂住小口。一对还算灵动的杏目睁的大大的。
Each tentacle was twice or three times thicker than a water bucket. Its entire body resembled a small hill. Its eyes were about a foot in diameter, expressionless and coldly staring at the prey.
xìng nán zi de liǎn sè yě hěn nán kàn 。 cǐ shì què shí qī qiāo le diǎn 。
姓男子的脸色也很难看。此事确实蹊跷了点。
The man's heart sank. The霸王魔章, although only an intermediate-grade three-stage cloud beast, had immense strength and thick skin. Usually, condensation core后期 cultivators would flee upon encountering it.
rán ér tā hái lái shuō 。 shēn cè yòu chuán lái jù dà de líng yā 。 è rán huí guò tóu qù 。 jiù kàn jiàn le yī jù dà de zhāng yú 。
然而他还来说。身侧又传来巨大的灵压。愕然回过头去。就看见了一巨大的章鱼。
One scissor fish could be considered coincidental, but a霸王魔章 was different. Could he have fallen into someone else's trap?
měi yī tiáo chù shǒu dōu yǒu shuǐ tǒng de liǎng sān bèi cū xì 。 zhěng zuò shēn tǐ jiù xiàng yī zuò xiǎo xiǎo de tǔ qiū 。 guāng shì yǎn jīng jiù zhí jìng chǐ xǔ 。 háo wú gǎn qíng 。 lěng de dīng zhuó yǎn qián de liè wù 。
每一条触手都有水桶的两三倍粗细。整座身体就像一座小小的土丘。光是眼睛就直径尺许。毫无感情。冷的盯着眼前的猎物。
His mind raced as his reaction was quick.
xìng nán zi dǎn hán le 。 bà wáng mó zhāng suī rán zhī shì sān jiē zhōng pǐn de yún shòu 。 dàn lì dà wú qióng 。 pí cāo ròu hòu 。 tōng cháng biàn níng dān hòu qī xiū shì pèng jiàn 。 yě zhǐ yǒu luò huāng ér táo 。
姓男子胆寒了。霸王魔章虽然之是三阶中品的云兽。但力大无穷。皮糙肉厚。通常便凝丹后期修士碰见。也只有落荒而逃。
"Disciples, return. Set up the Three Talents Water Wave Array."
yī zhī jiǎn dāo yú hái kě yǐ shuō shì còu qiǎo 。 zài jiā shàng yī tóu bà wáng mó zhāng kě jiù yǒu xiē bù tóng xún cháng 。 nán dào zì jǐ jìng shì zhōng le bié rén de quān tào ？
一只剪刀鱼还可以说是凑巧。再加上一头霸王魔章可就有些不同寻常。难道自己竟是中了别人的圈套？
If they were to fight alone, they couldn't match two three-stage cloud beasts. Fortunately, they had a set of powerful array flags with them, giving them some hope of a fight.
xīn niàn diàn zhuǎn 。 dàn tā fǎn yìng què yě hěn kuài 。
心念电转。但他反应却也很快。
However, the traitor had escaped here; was he planning this all along?
“ zhòng dì zǐ huí lái 。 bù sān cái shuǐ bō zhèn 。”
“众弟子回来。布三才水波阵。”
What the man with the surname didn't know was that several dozen miles away, a man with pointed ears and a monkey-like face had approached the small island. His cultivation level was only base foundation后期, holding an exquisite box in his hand, unwilling to put it into his storage bag.
ruò shì dān dǎ dú dòu 。 zì jǐ zhè xiē rén kě wú fǎ pǐ dí liǎng tóu sān jiē yún shòu 。 hǎo zài dài yǒu yī tào wēi lì bù xiǎo de zhèn qí 。 wèi shǐ méi yǒu yī pīn zhī lì 。
若是单打独斗。自己这些人可无法匹敌两头三阶云兽。好在带有一套威力不小的阵旗。未始没有一拼之力。
Seeing the mist-covered small island ahead, the man with the pointed ears and monkey-like face showed signs of joy, especially when he saw the huge ice peak on top. The fatigue on his face vanished as excitement shone in his eyes.
zhǐ shì nà pàn tú táo rù zhè lǐ 。 nán dào jìng shì zǎo yǒu yù móu 。
只是那叛徒逃入这里。难道竟是早有预谋。
"Haha. The legend is true. I never thought that Saint would be found in such a remote place, where not even birds can nest."
xìng nán zi bù zhī dào de shì 。 jiù zài jù lí tā men shù shí lǐ de de fāng 。 yī míng jiān ěr hóu sāi de nán zi yǐ jīng jiē jìn le xiǎo dǎo 。 cǐ rén xiū wèi bù gāo 。 jǐn jǐn shì zhù jī hòu qī ér yǐ 。 shǒu zhōng pěng zhe yí gè yù hé 。 xiǎn de bǎo bèi yǐ jí de yàng zi 。 jìng shě bù de fàng rù chǔ wù dài zhōng 。
姓男子不知道的是。就在距离他们数十里的的方。一名尖耳猴腮的男子已经接近了小岛。此人修为不高。仅仅是筑基后期而已。手中捧着一个玉盒。显的宝贝以极的样子。竟舍不的放入储物袋中。
He clutched the box tightly.
wàng zhe qián miàn yún wù liáo rào de xiǎo dǎo 。 jiān ěr hóu sāi de nán zi lù chū yī sī xǐ sè 。 tè bié shì kàn jiàn shàng miàn nà jù dà de bīng fēng 。 liǎn shàng de pí bèi gèng shì yī sǎo ér kōng 。 yǎn zhōng dū fàng chū le xīng fèn de guāng máng 。
望着前面云雾缭绕的小岛。尖耳猴腮的男子露出一丝喜色。特别是看见上面那巨大的冰峰。脸上的疲惫更是一扫而空。眼中都放出了兴奋的光芒。
Like finding a needle in a haystack without effort. He had been chased by several people like a stray dog, running around aimlessly. Unexpectedly, he found Saint here.
“ hēi hēi 。 chuán shuō jū rán zhēn de 。 méi xiǎng dào shèng de jū rán huì zài zhè qióng xiāng pì rǎng 。 niǎo bù lā shǐ de de fāng 。”
“嘿嘿。传说居然真的。没想到圣的居然会在这穷乡僻壤。鸟不拉屎的的方。”
The man's mana began to flow as he prepared to speed up. Suddenly, his body slowed down, and he turned to look at the surroundings, showing shock on his face.
tā gèng jiā wò jǐn le shǒu zhōng de yù hé 。
他更加握紧了手中的玉盒。
From the left, right, and behind him, considerable spiritual pressure came. Dark shadows moved in the cloud sea, several second-stage monsters appearing nearby.
pò tiě xié wú mì chù de lái quán bù fèi gōng fu 。 zì jǐ bèi hòu miàn de jǐ gè jiā huo zhuī de gēn sàng jiā zhī quǎn 。 rú méi tóu cāng yíng bān de luàn cuàn 。 méi xiǎng dào què yì wài zhǎo dào shèng de le 。
破铁鞋无觅处的来全不费工夫。自己被后面的几个家伙追的跟丧家之犬。如没头苍蝇般的乱窜。没想到却意外找到圣的了。
At the same time, inside Lin Xuan's den, in the spirit beast room,
nán zi fǎ lì liú zhuǎn 。 zhèng yào jiā kuài sù dù 。 tū rán shēn xíng yī huǎn 。 zhuǎn tóu wàng le wàng sì zhōu 。 liǎn shàng lù chū hài rán zhī sè 。
男子法力流转。正要加快速度。突然身形一缓。转头望了望四周。脸上露出骇然之色。
The little guy who had been wrapped up in silk for years finally woke up. Lin Xuan had come to check on it many times but found no signs of movement. Now that his master was exploring the iceberg, the little guy suddenly opened its eyes and sniffed the air as if sensing something.
zhǐ jiàn tā cóng zuǒ cè 。 yòu |。 hái yǒu hòu fāng 。 dōu yǒu bù xiǎo de líng yā chuán lái 。 yún hǎi zhōng hēi yǐng yǒng dòng 。 jǐ tóu zài cǐ fù jìn yóu yì de èr jí yāo shòu chū xiàn le 。
只见他从左侧。右|。还有后方。都有不小的灵压传来。云海中黑影涌动。几头在此附近游弋的二级妖兽出现了。
The cocoon stood upright, and the little guy's gaze fell upon the man with pointed ears and monkey-like face holding a secret box in his hand.
"Alright."
After a moment's thought, Lin Xuan nodded.
With that, the master and servant set off. They transformed into two different colored streaks of light, like icebergs flying away.
Speaking of this mountain, although Lin Xuan had never explored it, he had observed it from afar.
Of course, it wasn't constantly erupting. Most of the time, it was calm.
Generally speaking, it would erupt every few months or so, lasting three to four days at a time.
This frequency was much higher than that of an ordinary volcano.
However, what surprised Lin Xuan was that the lava only flowed down to the base of the iceberg and then stopped. Otherwise, his den wouldn't be more than a few miles away from there. Although it had protective禁制, it would still cause trouble.
Not long ago, fire had erupted once, so now it was in a calm period. From afar, it looked like a huge body of water, dazzling and beautiful.
At this distance, with Lin Xuan's Moonlight's speed, it naturally took only an instant to arrive.
Lin Xuan stared at the volcano's mouth, frowning slightly.
The entrance was enormous, round-shaped, about ten or more丈in diameter. However, the entire cave opening was dark, filled with a strange mist.
This way, he couldn't see what lay below.
Lin Xuan released his divine sense, but it could only penetrate to around thirty or forty丈before the scenery became blurry.
"Master, what's going on?"
Moonlight wrinkled her delicate nose, showing a hint of frustration on her face.
Lin Xuan didn't answer. He raised his right hand and cast a spell. Whispering under his breath, he aimed at the ground below. A flash of green light appeared, and a ten-meter-long wind dragon emerged, roaring as it rushed down.
Wind Dragon术.
This was an intermediate-grade five-element Dao technique. However, Lin Xuan performed it effortlessly, showing no signs of strain. Even condensation core stage cultivators might not be able to achieve such proficiency.
With the wind dragon leading the way, the mist quickly parted. A green glow enveloped Moonlight as she activated her Nine Heavens Spirit Shield and jumped down without hesitation.
Moonlight's movements were swift; she had already flown into her master's sleeve.
Lin Xuan began his exploration...
At the same time, several dozen miles away from Icefire Island in a cloud sea, a group of cultivators was flying slowly. Their speed wasn't fast, and they were spread out wide as if searching for something.
The cultivators' realms varied widely, but the lowest were at the base foundation stage. The two leaders were high-stage condensation core cultivators.
One male and one female.
The man had prominent ears and a dignified appearance, giving off an air of authority. He was about forty years old.
The woman was much younger, in her twenties, wearing a red robe with bare feet. Her beauty could be described as plain but not ugly; she had some appeal, though barely two or three points of attractiveness.
"Brother耿, that guy really escaped here. We've been out for three days now. If we don't get any news, it won't be easy to explain to the大小姐," said the red-robed woman, frowning with worry.
"Second sister, even if I'm not clear on this, you and I are indeed too careless. We didn't expect a mere base foundation cultivator to have such courage. Fortunately, he has a坤明虫 planted by me. We can track him down from there. He did escape here; that much is certain."
"Alright. Regardless of how it goes, we must capture the traitor as soon as possible. Only then will大小姐 be willing to forgive us."
Before the red-robed woman's words had finished, a sudden cry of pain entered their ears. Then light began to flicker before settling down. A blood mist exploded in the air.
"What happened?"
The two exchanged glances and quickly flew towards the scene.
"This is..."
Seeing the enormous creature before them, the red-robed woman gasped in shock. The man with the surname also looked astonished.
In front of them was a ten-meter-long giant fish.
Not only was it huge, but its appearance was completely unnatural. Its head alone took up about one-third of its body.
With an open maw filled with razor-sharp teeth, like sharp needles.

Each tentacle was twice or three times thicker than a water bucket. Its entire body resembled a small hill. Its eyes were about a foot in diameter, expressionless and coldly staring at the prey.
The man's heart sank. The霸王魔章, although only an intermediate-grade three-stage cloud beast, had immense strength and thick skin. Usually, condensation core后期 cultivators would flee upon encountering it.
One scissor fish could be considered coincidental, but a霸王魔章 was different. Could he have fallen into someone else's trap?
His mind raced as his reaction was quick.
"Disciples, return. Set up the Three Talents Water Wave Array."
If they were to fight alone, they couldn't match two three-stage cloud beasts. Fortunately, they had a set of powerful array flags with them, giving them some hope of a fight.
However, the traitor had escaped here; was he planning this all along?
What the man with the surname didn't know was that several dozen miles away, a man with pointed ears and a monkey-like face had approached the small island. His cultivation level was only base foundation后期, holding an exquisite box in his hand, unwilling to put it into his storage bag.
Seeing the mist-covered small island ahead, the man with the pointed ears and monkey-like face showed signs of joy, especially when he saw the huge ice peak on top. The fatigue on his face vanished as excitement shone in his eyes.
"Haha. The legend is true. I never thought that Saint would be found in such a remote place, where not even birds can nest."
He clutched the box tightly.
Like finding a needle in a haystack without effort. He had been chased by several people like a stray dog, running around aimlessly. Unexpectedly, he found Saint here.
The man's mana began to flow as he prepared to speed up. Suddenly, his body slowed down, and he turned to look at the surroundings, showing shock on his face.
From the left, right, and behind him, considerable spiritual pressure came. Dark shadows moved in the cloud sea, several second-stage monsters appearing nearby.
At the same time, inside Lin Xuan's den, in the spirit beast room,
The little guy who had been wrapped up in silk for years finally woke up. Lin Xuan had come to check on it many times but found no signs of movement. Now that his master was exploring the iceberg, the little guy suddenly opened its eyes and sniffed the air as if sensing something.
The cocoon stood upright, and the little guy's gaze fell upon the man with pointed ears and monkey-like face holding a secret box in his hand.
