百炼成仙第四卷七星岛第五百七十八章夺舍与重组身体
The two old monsters were a bit too excited. The元婴 didn't target them; instead, it flashed to the red-robed woman's head.
ér liǎng gè lǎo guài wù dōu yǒu xiē guò yú jī dòng 。 yuán yīng sī háo méi yǒu zhēn duì | tú 。 zuǐ jiǎo biān shǎn guò yī sī jī fěng - cì shùn yí zhī hòu 。 lái dào nà hóng yī nǚ zǐ de tóu dǐng le 。
而两个老怪物都有些过于激动。元婴丝毫没有针对|图。嘴角边闪过一丝讥讽-次瞬移之后。来到那红衣女子的头顶了。
This woman was clearly alarmed, her face pale as she opened her mouth slightly, intending to use some secret technique. But the元婴 had already entered her brow.
cǐ nǚ zì shì dà jīng 。 huā róng shī sè 。 tán kǒu wēi qǐ 。 xiǎng yào shī zhǎn mǒu zhǒng mì shù 。 kě yuán yīng yǐ jīng mò rù dào le tā de méi xīn zhī zhōng 。
此女自是大惊。花容失色。檀口微启。想要施展某种秘术。可元婴已经没入到了她的眉心之中。
Soul possession!
duó shě ！
夺舍！
The woman let out a shrill cry as her body trembled uncontrollably and fell to the ground.
nǚ zǐ fā chū yī shēng cǎn hū jiāo qū bù tíng zhàn lì 。 yǐ rán zuò dào zài de 。
女子发出一声惨呼娇躯不停战栗。已然坐到在的。
"Junior Sister!"
“ shī mèi ！”
“师妹！”
Geng Biao was shocked and angry. Faced with this sudden turn of events, he, just a Condensation Core cultivator, could do nothing but watch helplessly.
gěng biāo jīng nù jiāo jí 。 ér miàn duì zhè tū rán biàn gù 。 tā qū qū yī níng dān qī xiū shì 。 gēn běn shù shǒu wú cè 。 zhǐ néng yǎn zhēng zhēng kàn zhe 。
耿彪惊怒交集。而面对这突然变故。他区区一凝丹期修士。根本束手无策。只能眼睁睁看着。
However, these two old monsters wouldn't stand by idly. They didn’t care about the red-robed woman’s fate, but they were extremely wary of their peer-level opponent and couldn’t let her possess another body freely.
bù guò liǎng gè lǎo wù kě huì xiù shǒu páng guān 。 tā men bìng bù guān xīn hóng yī nǚ zǐ sǐ huó 。 dàn duì yú yī míng tóng jiē xiū shì 。 zì shì jì dàn yì cháng 。 qǐ néng rèn yóu tā duó shě ？
不过两个老物可会袖手旁观。他们并不关心红衣女子死活。但对于一名同阶修士。自是忌惮异常。岂能任由她夺舍？
They exchanged a glance. The tortoise demon waved its arms wildly, and the crystal flying knife shot out instantly. Master Ku then puffed his cheeks and spat out grayish-white demonic flames from his mouth.
duì yī yǎn 。 guī yāo liǎng zhǐ shǒu bì yī zhèn kuáng wǔ 。 nà kǒu jīng yíng de fēi dāo lì kè fēi shè ér chū 。 kǔ dà shī zé sāi bāng yī gǔ 。 cóng dà zuǐ zhōng tǔ chū yī yán sè huī bái de mó huǒ 。
对一眼。龟妖两只手臂一阵狂舞。那口晶莹的飞刀立刻飞射而出。苦大师则腮帮一鼓。从大嘴中吐出一颜色灰白的魔火。
Seize the moment! These two old monsters didn't care about fairness; they would pick the weakest moment to kill their enemy. A sweet giggle echoed in their ears as the red-robed woman stopped trembling, her lotus feet kicking off the ground, and she retreated several dozen meters away like a lightning bolt.
chèn tā bìng 。 yào tā mìng 。 liǎng lǎo guài wù kě bù huì jiǎng jiū shén me gōng píng 。 miè shā dí rén zì rán yào tiāo tā zuì xū ruò de yī kè 。 yī zhèn yuè ěr de jiāo xiào chuán ěr duǒ 。 nà hóng nǚ zi què yǐ tíng zhǐ le chàn dǒu 。 lián zú yì diǎn 。 shēn xíng jí ruò shǎn diàn 。 tuì kāi le wǔ liù shí zhàng zhī yuǎn 。
趁他病。要他命。两老怪物可不会讲究什么公平。灭杀敌人自然要挑她最虚弱的一刻。一阵悦耳的娇笑传耳朵。那红女子却已停止了颤抖。莲足一点。身形疾若闪电。退开了五六十丈之远。
Boom!
hōng ！
轰！
The attack missed, and the two old monsters looked at each other in shock, their expressions turning ugly. Although the red-robed woman was only mid-Condensation Core, being possessed so quickly by the opponent showed how powerful this元婴's abilities were, far exceeding their expectations.
gōng jī luò kōng 。 liǎng gè lǎo guài wù xiāng gù hài rán 。 biàn de shí fēn nán kàn 。 hóng yī nǚ zǐ suī rán zhǐ yǒu níng dān zhōng qī de xiū wèi 。 dàn rú cǐ kuài jiù bèi duì fāng duó shě chéng gōng 。 cǐ yuán yīng shén tōng zhī qiáng 。 hái yuǎn zài zì jǐ yù liào zhī shàng 。
攻击落空。两个老怪物相顾骇然。变的十分难看。红衣女子虽然只有凝丹中期的修为。但如此快就被对方夺舍成功。此元婴神通之强。还远在自己预料之上。
The demon’s face turned ashen as it stretched out a hand toward the void. The flying knife instantly grew larger, transforming into a blade a dozen feet wide that whirled through the air and fiercely slashed at the opponent.
yāo miàn chén shì shuǐ 。 háo bù yóu yù de shēn chū shǒu lái chōng zhe xū kōng yī ,。 nà fēi dāo lì kè zhǎng dà qǐ lái 。 biàn chéng yì zhí jìng zhàng xǔ de lì rèn zài kōng zhōng yī zhuǎn 。 hěn hěn de xiàng zhe duì fāng pī le guò lái 。
妖面沉似水。毫不犹豫的伸出手来冲着虚空一,。那飞刀立刻涨大起来。变成一直径丈许的利刃在空中一转。狠狠的向着对方劈了过来。
Master Ku performed the same action. This old man known for his cruelty puffed his cheeks again, spitting out more grayish-white demonic flames that coalesced into a giant snake as thick as a water pipe, which lunged toward the woman.
kǔ dà shī yě shì tóng yàng de dòng zuò 。 zhè sù yǐ cán rěn wén míng de lǎo jiā huǒ 。 sāi bāng yī gǔ 。 tǔ chū gèng duō de huī bái sè mó huǒ 。 jù hé zài yì qǐ 。 yī tiáo shuǐ tǒng cū xì de jù mǎng chū xiàn le 。 áng shǒu tǔ xīn 。 xiàng zhe nǚ zǐ pū qù 。
苦大师也是同样的动作。这素以残忍闻名的老家伙。腮帮一鼓。吐出更多的灰白色魔火。聚合在一起。一条水桶粗细的巨蟒出现了。昂首吐芯。向着女子扑去。
Facing the joint attack of one human and one demon, the red-robed woman showed no fear on her face. She raised her slender hand and flicked it like playing a tune.
miàn duì yī rén yī yāo de lián gōng jī 。 hóng yī nǚ de liǎn shàng què méi yǒu sī háo jù yì tái qǐ qiàn shǒu 。 yù zhǐ yóu ruò tán qín bān huī 。
面对一人一妖的联攻击。红衣女的脸上却没有丝毫惧意抬起纤手。玉指犹若弹琴般挥。
A small bracelet appeared in mid-air.
yī xiǎo qiǎo de bèi jì le kōng qì zhōng 。
一小巧的被祭了空气中。
The design was ancient, looking like something she wore around her wrist.
zào xíng gǔ piáo 。 kàn shàng qù shì nǚ zǐ suí shēn pèi dài de shǒu zhuó 。
造型古朴。看上去是女子随身佩戴的手镯。
Initially, the two old monsters didn't take it seriously; this wasn’t some powerful item. However, as the woman calmly pointed at the bracelet, a layer of spiritual light radiated from it.
qǐ chū liǎng gè lǎo guài wù bù yǐ wéi yì 。 zhè bìng bù xiàng shén me dà wēi lì de dōng xī rán ér suí zhe cǐ nǚ cóng róng de yì diǎn zhǐ cóng | shǒu zhuó zhī shàng fàng shè chū yī céng líng guāng 。
起初两个老怪物不以为意。这并不像什么大威力的东西然而随着此女从容的一点指从|手镯之上放射出一层灵光。
Though gentle, when activated by Inner Refinement Method, the light spread out like ripples and almost instantly touched their attacks.
líng guāng hěn qīng róu 。 dàn zài zi fǎ jué yī cuī zhī xià 。 què yǒu rú bō wén bān de yǒng xiàng sì zhōu 。 jī hū shì zhǎ yǎn jiān jiù yǔ liǎng gè guài wù de gōng jī | chù 。
灵光很轻柔。但在子法诀一催之下。却有如波纹般的涌向四周。几乎是眨眼间就与两个怪物的攻击|触。
Silent...
wú shēng wú xī ……
无声无息……
However, the demonic flames transformed into a giant snake seemed to have met its match. Like ice melting in sunlight, it rapidly disintegrated. Master Ku’s face changed, but his fellow tortoise demon wasn’t much better; upon contact with the bracelet's light, the flying knife's offensive slowed down, and its spirit diminished.
rán ér nà mó huǒ huàn huà chū lái de jù mǎng què fǎng fú yù jiàn le tiān dí 。 rú yáng guāng xià de bīng xuě 。 xùn sù xiāo róng 。 kǔ dà shī liǎn sè biàn ér lìng yī guī yāo de qíng kuàng bìng bù bǐ tā shāo hǎo 。 jiē chù dào yù huán fàng shè chū lái de líng guāng fēi dāo gōng shì yī huǎn 。 bìng qiě líng xìng dà shī le qǐ lái 。
然而那魔火幻化出来的巨蟒却仿佛遇见了天敌。如阳光下的冰雪。迅速消融。苦大师脸色变而另一龟妖的情况并不比他稍好。接触到玉环放射出来的灵光飞刀攻势一缓。并且灵性大失了起来。
How could this be?
zěn me huì zhè yàng ？
怎么会这样？
The two old monsters were shocked. They realized their opponent was even more formidable than they had imagined and decided to temporarily halt their attacks.
liǎng gè lǎo guài wù dà jīng shī sè 。 zhè cái zhī dào dí rén bǐ tā men xiǎng xiàng hái yào bù hǎo rě 。 bù bù zàn shí tíng shǒu le 。
两个老怪物大惊失色。这才知道敌人比他们想象还要不好惹。不不暂时停手了。
However, the woman turned the tide with one move but didn’t immediately counterattack. Instead, she extended her jade arm, tracing a strange path in mid-air, opening her mouth slightly and uttering mysterious ancient incantations.
ér nà nǚ zǐ yī zhāo jiù bān huí tuí shì 。 què yě méi yǒu mǎ shàng fǎn jī 。 ér shì shēn chū yù bì 。 zài xū kōng zhōng huá guò qí miào de guǐ jì 。 tán kǒu wēi qǐ 。 tǔ chū shén mì ér gǔ lǎo de zhòu yǔ 。
而那女子一招就扳回颓势。却也没有马上反击。而是伸出玉臂。在虚空中划过奇妙的轨迹。檀口微启。吐出神秘而古老的咒语。
Seeing this, Master Ku couldn't bear to wait any longer; he patted his head hard and summoned the Soulless Bone Club.
jiàn dào zhè yí mù 。 kǔ dà zì rán bù kěn zuò yǐ dài bì 。 shǐ jìn zài , nǎo yī pāi 。 yǐ jiāng yuān hún rén gǔ bàng jì le qǐ lái 。
见到这一幕。苦大自然不肯坐以待毙。使劲在,脑一拍。已将冤魂人骨棒祭了起来。
Grim winds rose as countless demonic energies surged from his body.
yīn fēng cǎn cǎn 。 wú shù de mó qì yǐ tā de shēn tǐ wèi zhōng xīn 。 yuán yuán bù duàn de fān gǔn le qǐ lái 。
阴风惨惨。无数的魔气以他的身体为中心。源源不断的翻滚了起来。
"Wait!"
“ děng děng ！”
“等等！”
He snapped his fingers, driving his法宝. But the tortoise demon raised an eyebrow, stopping him from acting rashly.
tā shuāng shǒu yī qiā 。 zhèng qū shǐ fǎ bǎo 。 guī yāo què méi tóu yī tiāo 。 zǔ zhǐ le lǎo de qīng jǔ wàng dòng 。
他双手一掐。正驱使法宝。龟妖却眉头一挑。阻止了老的轻举妄动。
"Why are you doing this, friend?" Master Ku said with a frown. Could this demon be working in tandem with that woman to trap him? The thought made him shudder and his vigilance rise.
“ dào yǒu zhè shì wèi hé ？” kǔ dà shī biǎo bù shàn de shuō 。 nán dào cǐ yāo yǔ nà nǚ zǐ shì tóng huǒ 。 lián shǒu shè jì zì jǐ me 。 xiǎng dào zhè lǐ 。 tā xī le yī kǒu liáng qì 。 jǐng tì zhī xīn dà qǐ 。
“道友这是为何？”苦大师表不善的说。难道此妖与那女子是同伙。联手设计自己么。想到这里。他吸了一口凉气。警惕之心大起。
However, the tortoise demon’s expression was peculiar; there was no trace of aggression, just a fixed gaze on the woman before him... with a hint of fear but more disbelief.
rán ér guī yāo de biǎo qíng què yǒu xiē qí tè 。 shēn shàng yì diǎn shā qì yě wú 。 dìng dìng de dīng zhuó yǎn qián de nǚ zǐ …… yǐn yǐn yǒu yī sī wèi jù 。 dàn duō de què shì bù néng xiāng xìn de yàng zi 。
然而龟妖的表情却有些奇特。身上一点杀气也无。定定的盯着眼前的女子……隐隐有一丝畏惧。但多的却是不能相信的样子。
Master Ku found this strange and muttered under his breath.
kǔ dà shī jiàn le 。 xīn zhōng àn gǎn chà yì 。 bù yóu gū le jǐ jù 。
苦大师见了。心中暗感诧异。不由咕了几句。
Then he heard the red-robed woman cry out: "Quickly!"
què tīng nà hóng yī nǚ jiāo chì yī shēng ：“ jí ！”
却听那红衣女娇叱一声：“疾！”
Her voice was melodious, trailing off at the end.
shēng yīn yuè ěr 。 hái dài zhe zhǎng de wěi yīn 。
声音悦耳。还带着长的尾音。
A shocking surge of essence energy rose into the air, enveloping her body. The light was so bright it seemed she was encased in a rising sun.
suí hòu yī gǔ jīng rén de líng lì chōng tiān ér qǐ 。 bāo guǒ zhù hóng yī nǚ de jiāo qū 。 hóng guāng yào yǎn 。 cǐ nǚ jìng xiàng shì bèi bāo guǒ zài le yī lún chū shēng de hóng rì lǐ miàn 。
随后一股惊人的灵力冲天而起。包裹住红衣女的娇躯。红光耀眼。此女竟像是被包裹在了一轮初升的红日里面。
Even for an old元婴 cultivator like Master Ku, this was disorienting. He quickly injected his essence energy into his eyes.
jí biàn shì yuán yīng qī de lǎo 。 kǔ dà shī yě huǎng huā le yǎn 。 máng jiāng líng lì zhù rù dào shuāng mù lǐ miàn 。
即便是元婴期的老。苦大师也晃花了眼。忙将灵力注入到双目里面。
What he saw next left him stunned.
suí hòu kàn jiàn de yí mù ràng è rán 。
随后看见的一幕让愕然。
In the pure spiritual light, the red-robed woman’s body began to dissolve rapidly. In an instant, the old monster almost thought he had misjudged.
zhǐ jiàn zài nà chún zhèng de líng guāng zhī zhōng 。 hóng yī nǚ de shēn tǐ jìng rán xùn sù kāi shǐ xiāo róng 。 yī shùn jiān 。 lǎo guài wù jī hū yǐ wéi zì jǐ kàn cuò 。
只见在那纯正的灵光之中。红衣女的身体竟然迅速开始消融。一瞬间。老怪物几乎以为自己看错。
Was she trying to commit suicide in such a way?
yǒu méi yǒu gǎo cuò 。 yuán yīng fèi jìn xīn sī duó shě 。 zuì hòu què shì xiǎng yào yǐ zhè zhǒng fāng shì zì shā me ？
有没有搞错。元婴费尽心思夺舍。最后却是想要以这种方式自杀么？
Unless she was insane?
chú fēi tā fēng le ？
除非她疯了？
Master Ku found this incomprehensible but couldn’t deny what his eyes were seeing.
kǔ dà shī jué de bù kě lǐ jiě 。 kě zhè yí mù què yòu huó shēng shēng de fā shēng zài yǎn qián 。
苦大师觉的不可理解。可这一幕却又活生生的发生在眼前。
However, the tortoise demon's expression was entirely different.
rán ér guī yāo de biǎo qíng què shì wán quán bù tóng 。
然而龟妖的表情却是完全不同。
Its fear deepened; it was an ancient monster that had lived for millions of years. Even though it was just a one-stage beast at the time, it had seen such terrifying techniques.
yǎn zhōng de kǒng jù zhī sè yù 。 tā kě shì huó bǎi wàn nián de lǎo guài wù 。 suī rán nà shí hòu jǐn jǐn shì yī jiē yāo shòu ér yǐ 。 dàn jiàn shí guò zhè zhǒng hài rén tīng wén de shén tōng 。
眼中的恐惧之色愈。他可是活百万年的老怪物。虽然那时候仅仅是一阶妖兽而已。但见识过这种骇人听闻的神通。
This was the exclusive technique of Jade Profound Sect. However, only a few top-ranking elders in the sect could perform it.
zhèng shì yù xuán zōng de dú mén shù 。 rán ér zài gāi pài zhī zhōng 。 yě jǐn yǒu jǐ wèi shí lì zuì chū zhòng de zhǎng lǎo cái huì de 。
正是玉玄宗的独门术。然而在该派之中。也仅有几位实力最出众的长老才会的。
Reconstructing the body.
qū tǐ chóng xīn zǔ 。
躯体重新组。
It was well-known that after advancing to the元婴 stage, cultivators were hard to kill; even if their bodies were destroyed, they could possess another one.
zhòng suǒ zhōu zhī 。 xiū shì jìn jiē yuán yīng qī yǐ hòu 。 jiù hěn nán yǔn luò 。 jí shǐ ròu shēn bèi huǐ le 。 yě kě yǐ chóng xīn duó shě 。
众所周知。修士进阶元婴期以后。就很难陨落。即使肉身被毁了。也可以重新夺舍。
However, due to the laws of nature, such self-serving techniques had significant limitations.
rán ér yóu yú tiān de fǎ zé 。 zhè zhǒng sǔn rén lì jǐ de shén tōng yě shì yǒu jí dà xiàn zhì de 。
然而由于天的法则。这种损人利己的神通也是有极大限制的。
They could only possess a cultivator with a lower spiritual root. In other words, while the body could be reacquired, the cultivation level would plummet drastically. Moreover, future cultivation would become immensely difficult.
jǐn néng duó shě líng gēn bù jí jǐ de xiū shì 。 huàn jù huà shuō 。 qū tǐ gù rán kě yǐ chóng xīn huò 。 dàn xiū wèi què shì huì kuáng jiàng yī jié de 。 bù jǐn rú cǐ 。 rì hòu de xiū liàn yě huì biàn de kùn nán chóng chóng 。
仅能夺舍灵根不及己的修士。换句话说。躯体固然可以重新获。但修为却是会狂降一截的。不仅如此。日后的修炼也会变的困难重重。
This was considered a natural restriction on high-ranking cultivators; otherwise, they could freely possess low-rank cultivators at will.
zhè yě suàn shì zì rán duì gāo jiē xiū shì de yī zhǒng xiàn zhì 。 fǒu zé tā men jiù kě yǐ wéi suǒ yù wéi 。 sì yì duó shě dī jiē xiū shì 。
这也算是自然对高阶修士的一种限制。否则他们就可以为所欲为。肆意夺舍低阶修士。
However, there were always special cases throughout endless ages, and some extraordinary geniuses emerged.
rán ér fán shì zǒng yǒu tè shū de lì zi 。 wú jìn suì yuè zhōng zǒng huì chū xiàn yī xiē jīng cái jué yàn zhī shì 。
然而凡事总有特殊的例子。无尽岁月中总会出现一些惊才绝艳之士。
The Immortal of Indestructibility was such an example!
bù sǐ zhēn rén jiù shì yí gè lì zi ！
不死真人就是一个例子！
He was the seventh-generation patriarch of Jade Profound Sect.
cǐ rén nǎi shì yù xuán zōng dì qī dài zhǎng mén zǔ shī
此人乃是玉玄宗第七代掌门祖师
The name sounded odd, but he wasn’t truly immortal; this title came from a unique功法 he created. This technique partially broke through the laws of nature, allowing元婴 cultivators to possess another body and then have it dissolve into new parts. Using his blood as an inducer, they could reassemble their bodies.
zhè dào hào tīng zhe yǒu xiē gǔ guài de yàng zi 。 dāng 。 bìng fēi zhēn de bù sǐ 。 zhī suǒ yǐ huì rú cǐ chēng hū 。 zé yǔ tā suǒ chuàng lì de yī zhǒng gōng fǎ yǒu zhe dà de guān xì 。
这道号听着有些古怪的样子。当。并非真的不死。之所以会如此称呼。则与他所创立的一种功法有着大的关系。
With this secret method, newly generated bodies bore the imprint of the元婴’s essence, making them look exactly like the original body before possession, with no difference in talent or age.
gōng fǎ zài yí dìng chéng dù shàng tū pò le tiān de fǎ zé 。 ràng yuán yīng xiū shì jìn xíng duó shě zhī hòu 。 kě yǐ xīn de shēn tǐ xiāo róng fēn 。 suí hòu yǐ qí xuè wèi yǐn zi 。 chóng xīn zǔ hé 。
功法在一定程度上突破了天的法则。让元婴修士进行夺舍之后。可以新的身体消融分。随后以其血为引子。重新组合。
Of course, perfection was unattainable in the cultivation world; each person could only use this technique once per lifetime.
yòng cǐ mì fǎ xīn shēng chéng de qū tǐ 。 yīn wèi yuán yīng de běn mìng yìn jì 。 bù jǐn róng mào kě yǐ yǔ duó shě qián de shēn tǐ yī mú yī yàng 。 ér qiě lián zī zhì nián jì yě bú huì xiāng chà fēn háo 。
用此秘法新生成的躯体。因为元婴的本命印记。不仅容貌可以与夺舍前的身体一模一样。而且连资质年纪也不会相差分毫。
Now, the tortoise demon's eyes were filled with fear. The ancient elders of Jade Profound Sect had formidable techniques, but it couldn’t be true. How long did any kind have such a lifespan? Moreover, during that great calamity and internal strife, shouldn't this sect already have been destroyed?
dāng rán 。 xiū xiān jiè yě bù kě néng yǒu wán měi de dōng xī 。 cǐ gōng fǎ měi rén měi shēng zhǐ néng shī zhǎn yī cì 。
当然。修仙界也不可能有完美的东西。此功法每人每生只能施展一次。
PS: More coming up!
The two old monsters were a bit too excited. The元婴 didn't target them; instead, it flashed to the red-robed woman's head.

However, there were always special cases throughout endless ages, and some extraordinary geniuses emerged.
The Immortal of Indestructibility was such an example!
He was the seventh-generation patriarch of Jade Profound Sect.
The name sounded odd, but he wasn’t truly immortal; this title came from a unique功法 he created. This technique partially broke through the laws of nature, allowing元婴 cultivators to possess another body and then have it dissolve into new parts. Using his blood as an inducer, they could reassemble their bodies.
With this secret method, newly generated bodies bore the imprint of the元婴’s essence, making them look exactly like the original body before possession, with no difference in talent or age.
Of course, perfection was unattainable in the cultivation world; each person could only use this technique once per lifetime.
Now, the tortoise demon's eyes were filled with fear. The ancient elders of Jade Profound Sect had formidable techniques, but it couldn’t be true. How long did any kind have such a lifespan? Moreover, during that great calamity and internal strife, shouldn't this sect already have been destroyed?
