“ xiàn zài bèi guǎn de yán , kàn bù liǎo tài duō 。 suǒ yǐ zhè dōng xī yě méi shén me dà yòng le 。 nǐ xiǎng yào de huà , wǒ kě yǐ sòng nǐ 。” tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn kàn zhe lǐ fán de yǎn shén , xiào zhe shuō dào 。
“现在被管的严,看不了太多。所以这东西也没什么大用了。你想要的话,我可以送你。”天玄镜分身看着李凡的眼神,笑着说道。
"Now that I'm being watched so closely, there's not much to see. So this thing isn't very useful anymore. If you want it, I can give it to you," the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone said with a smile as he looked at Li Fan.
tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn rú cǐ zhǔ dòng , shuí liào lǐ fán què zhí jiē jù jué le 。
天玄镜分身如此主动,谁料李凡却直接拒绝了。
Li Fan directly refused, his expression slightly wary.
kàn zhe lǐ fán nà lüè dài jiè bèi de yàng zi , tā bù yóu yǎ rán 。
看着李凡那略带戒备的样子,他不由哑然。
Seeing that, the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone was taken aback. "Relax, there won't be any more contact between your secondary body and me. Think about it—would humans want to have anything to do with their own excrement?"
“ fàng xīn , cì shēng tǐ gēn wǒ zhī jiān , jī běn bú huì zài yǒu lián xì le 。 xiǎng yī xiǎng , nǐ men rén lèi huì xiǎng gēn zì jǐ de pái xiè wù 、 zài chǎn shēng rèn hé guān lián ma ?”
“放心,次生体跟我之间,基本不会再有联系了。想一想,你们人类会想跟自己的排泄物、再产生任何关联吗?”
"Although I used crude language, the logic is sound," the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone said slowly.
“ suī rán yòng cí cū sú le diǎn , dàn dào lǐ què shì zhè me gè dào lǐ 。” tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn huǎn huǎn shuō dào 。
“虽然用词粗俗了点,但道理却是这么个道理。”天玄镜分身缓缓说道。
In Li Fan's mind, the End of Time Disintegration Disc emitted strange fluctuations.
lǐ fán shí hǎi zhōng , zhōng mò jiě lí dié fā chū zhèn zhèn yì yàng de bō dòng 。
李凡识海中,终末解离碟发出阵阵异样的波动。
Fortunately, he managed to suppress them before they got out of hand. Otherwise, it might have revealed something in front of the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone.
hái hǎo gāng yǒu miáo tou , jiù bèi lǐ fán zhèn yā zhù 。 fǒu zé shuō bù dìng jiù yào zài tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn miàn qián lù chū mǎ jiǎo 。
还好刚有苗头,就被李凡镇压住。否则说不定就要在天玄镜分身面前露出马脚。
However, even with the Tai Xuan secondary body, no one had noticed him standing in front of the Tai Xuan Mirror.
bù guò shēn huái tiān xuán cì shēng tǐ , zhàn zài tiān xuán jìng miàn qián duì fāng dōu méi yǒu chá jué 。
不过身怀天玄次生体,站在天玄镜面前对方都没有察觉。
This only further proved his words.
wú yí yě yìn zhèng le tā de zhè fān shuō cí 。
无疑也印证了他的这番说辞。
"Since that's the case, I'll accept your offer," Li Fan said as he reached out to take it. The Tai Xuan Mirror's clone didn't go back on his word and directly handed over the Measure Heaven Shuttle.
“ jì rú cǐ , wǒ jiù què zhī bù gōng le 。” lǐ fán zhè me shuō zhe , shēn shǒu qù jiē 。
“既如此,我就却之不恭了。”李凡这么说着,伸手去接。
The moment Li Fan grasped the Measure Heaven Shuttle, it felt like he had fallen into an endless mirror world.
tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn yě méi yǒu chū ěr fǎn ěr , zhí jiē bǎ liàng tiān suō dì le guò lái 。
天玄镜分身也没有出尔反尔,直接把量天梭递了过来。
Each square mirror displayed different scenes.
shǒu wò liàng tiān suō de shùn jiān , lǐ fán hǎo sì diē luò jìn liǎo wú qióng wú jìn de jìng zhōng shì jiè 。
手握量天梭的瞬间,李凡好似跌落进了无穷无尽的镜中世界。
All these mirrors combined showed what was happening in the Xuanhuang Realm.
měi yī kuài fāng xíng jìng miàn , dōu xiǎn shì zhe bù tóng de chǎng jǐng 。
每一块方形镜面,都显示着不同的场景。
"This looks similar to the original Creation Stone. But while the stone records everything, this shuttle doesn't have the ability to save images," Li Fan said with a narrowed gaze as he tried to integrate all the mirror scenes into his mind.
wú shù jìng miàn zǔ hé , zǔ chéng le xuán huáng jiè zhōng zhèng zài fā shēng de shì qíng 。
无数镜面组合,组成了玄黄界中正在发生的事情。
However, after a moment, the Core Formation Stone showed signs of breaking apart.
“ kàn yàng zi gēn yuán xiān de chuàng shì shí bǎn chà bu duō 。 bù guò shí bǎn dōu jiāng yī qiè dōu jì lù xià lái , ér zhè liàng tiān suō què méi yǒu bǎo cún yǐng xiàng de néng lì 。”
“看样子跟原先的创世石板差不多。不过石板都将一切都记录下来,而这量天梭却没有保存影像的能力。”
"It's too much to ask. Only the mother Core Formation Stone can do it."
“ ér xiǎng yào cóng zhè wú qióng dà hǎi bān de jìng miàn shì jiè zhōng zhǎo dào xiǎng yào de xìn xī ……”
“而想要从这无穷大海般的镜面世界中找到想要的信息……”
Li Fan sighed in his heart and withdrew his divine sense from the Measure Heaven Shuttle.
lǐ fán mī zhuó yǎn , shì tú jiāng suǒ yǒu de jìng miàn jǐng xiàng dōu róng rù nǎo hǎi zhī zhōng 。
李凡眯着眼,试图将所有的镜面景象都融入脑海之中。
"How does it feel?" The Tai Xuan Mirror's clone seemed to have anticipated Li Fan's frustration, he asked with a smile.
bù guò piàn kè zhī hòu , huà dào shí jiù yǒu yào bēng jiě de jì xiàng 。
不过片刻之后,化道石就有要崩解的迹象。
"Not bad. It really satisfies my desire to eavesdrop," Li Fan said with an expression of lingering satisfaction.
“ tài miǎn qiǎng le 。 kǒng pà wéi yǒu huà dào shí mǔ , cái néng zuò dào le 。”
“太勉强了。恐怕唯有化道石母,才能做到了。”
The Tai Xuan Mirror's clone was momentarily speechless: "You are the peak cultivator in the Xuanhuang Realm…"
lǐ fán xīn zhōng gǎn tàn yī shēng , shén shí cóng liàng tiān suō zhōng tuì le chū lái 。
李凡心中感叹一声,神识从量天梭中退了出来。
Li Fan laughed heartily.
“ gǎn jué rú hé ?” tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn sì hū zǎo yù liào dào lǐ fán huì shòu cuò , tā xiào zhe wèn dào 。
“感觉如何?”天玄镜分身似乎早预料到李凡会受挫,他笑着问道。
They fell into silence again.
“ hái xíng 。 hěn hǎo de mǎn zú le wǒ xǐ huān tōu kuī de pǐ hào 。” lǐ fán zuò chū yī fù yì yóu wèi jǐn de yàng zi 。
“还行。很好的满足了我喜欢偷窥的癖好。”李凡做出一副意犹未尽的样子。
After a while, the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone, seeing that Li Fan hadn't left yet, asked curiously, "Is there anything else?"
tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn dùn shí yǒu xiē wú yǔ :“ nǐ hǎo dǎi yě shì xuán huáng jiè xiū shì zhī diān de rén wù le ……”
天玄镜分身顿时有些无语:“你好歹也是玄黄界修士之巅的人物了……”
"Ah! I almost forgot!" Li Fan said as if just waking up from a dream.
lǐ fán hā hā dà xiào yǐ duì 。
李凡哈哈大笑以对。
"You worked hard to gain your freedom, but you're just sitting here waiting for success. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Li Fan asked earnestly.
liǎng rén yòu xiàn rù le chén mò zhī zhōng 。
两人又陷入了沉默之中。
"It's true that you gave me the Measure Heaven Shuttle yourself. It shouldn't be counted in my payment," Li Fan added.
yòu guò le huì , tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn kàn zhe réng rán méi yǒu lí qù de lǐ fán , yǒu xiē nà mèn de wèn dào :“ nǐ hái yǒu shén me shì ma ?”
又过了会,天玄镜分身看着仍然没有离去的李凡,有些纳闷的问道:“你还有什么事嘛?”
Seeing his stubbornness, the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone felt a wave of helplessness.
lǐ fán fǎng fú zhè cái rú mèng chū xǐng :“ a ! nǐ bù tí wǒ dōu chà diǎn wàng le !”
李凡仿佛这才如梦初醒:“啊!你不提我都差点忘了!”
But since they were now "partners," it was only natural to give him something.
“ wǒ men wèi le nǐ de zì yóu mài mìng , nǐ què zài zhè lǐ yōu zāi zuò děng gōng chéng 。 zhè shì bú shì yǒu xiē bù hé shì ?” lǐ fán yī liǎn rèn zhēn de wèn dào 。
“我们为了你的自由卖命,你却在这里悠哉坐等功成。这是不是有些不合适?”李凡一脸认真的问道。
After some thought, he decided to offer a benefit to send this guy away.
“ guǒ rán shì wú lì bù qǐ zǎo 。” tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn zǎo jiù kàn chuān le lǐ fán wéi rén shì de , bìng méi yǒu biǎo xiàn chū duō me de fèn nù 。
“果然是无利不起早。”天玄镜分身早就看穿了李凡为人似的,并没有表现出多么的愤怒。
"You asked for information on the Floating Starlight Great Array last time. Although detailed records are only in my body, I have another array that's very similar."
“ zhè liàng tiān suō 、 kě shì nǐ zì jǐ sòng wǒ de 。 bù néng suàn zài bào chóu zhī liè 。” lǐ fán bǔ chōng dào 。
“这量天梭、可是你自己送我的。不能算在报酬之列。”李凡补充道。
"This one is part of the same set as the Xuanji and Ten Thousand Spirits Returning Numbers."
kàn zhe duì fāng zhè fù yóu yán bù jìn de mú yàng , tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn xīn zhōng yě dùn shí yǒng qǐ yī zhèn wú lì 。
看着对方这副油盐不进的模样,天玄镜分身心中也顿时涌起一阵无力。
"Are you trying to distract me with an array again?" Li Fan's eyes were already fixed on the clone's fingers.
bù guò , shuí ràng tā men rú jīn shì “ hé zuò huǒ bàn ” ne ?
不过,谁让他们如今是“合作伙伴”呢?
The Tai Xuan Mirror's clone sighed and broke his finger, throwing it over.
sī cǔn piàn kè , tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn zuì zhōng hái shì jué dìng ná chū diǎn hǎo chù 、 bǎ zhè sī gěi dǎ fā zǒu 。
思忖片刻,天玄镜分身最终还是决定拿出点好处、把这厮给打发走。
"I'm done. I need some rest recently, so don't bother me unless there's something important," he said weakly.
“ nǐ shàng cì gēn wǒ yào guò fú dù xīng kōng dà zhèn de xìn xī 。 suī rán cǐ zhèn xiáng qíng zhǐ yǒu běn tǐ chù yǒu jì zǎi , bù guò wǒ zhè lǐ què yǒu zhe gēn qí shí fēn xiāng sì de yí gè zhèn fǎ 。”
“你上次跟我要过浮渡星空大阵的信息。虽然此阵详情只有本体处有记载,不过我这里却有着跟其十分相似的一个阵法。”
Li Fan got what he wanted and stopped pestering him.
“ gēn zhī qián wǒ chuán gěi nǐ de 【 xuán jī 、 wàn líng guī shù 】, qià hǎo shǔ yú tóng yī tào zhèn fǎ 。”
“跟之前我传给你的【璇玑、万灵归数】,恰好属于同一套阵法。”
He bowed and flew away.
“ yòu ná zhèn fǎ lái dǎ fā wǒ ?” suī rán zuǐ shàng zhè me shuō zhe , bù guò lǐ fán de yǎn jīng yǐ jīng zhí zhí dīng zhe le tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn de shǒu zhǐ 。
“又拿阵法来打发我?”虽然嘴上这么说着,不过李凡的眼睛已经直直盯着了天玄镜分身的手指。
"Is this genuine greed or fake greed?"
tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn yǒu xiē wú nài , jiāng shǒu zhǐ bāi duàn 、 rēng le guò lái 。
天玄镜分身有些无奈,将手指掰断、扔了过来。
"Is this a performance or an honest expression of nature?"
“ xíng le 。 wǒ zuì jìn xū yào tiáo yǎng yī duàn shí jiān , nǐ méi shì jiù bú yào lái dǎ rǎo wǒ le 。” tā yǒu xiē xū ruò de shuō dào 。
“行了。我最近需要调养一段时间,你没事就不要来打扰我了。”他有些虚弱的说道。
"I thought I understood everything clearly, but now it seems I can't see through it."
lǐ fán dé dào le hǎo chù , yě bù zài jiū chán 。
李凡得到了好处,也不在纠缠。
After Li Fan left, the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone said these words.
dāng jí gǒng le gǒng shǒu , fēi shēn dùn zǒu 。
当即拱了拱手,飞身遁走。
"Should we explore the Star Sea together…"
“ jiū jìng shì zhēn tān 、 hái shì jiǎ tān ?”
“究竟是真贪、还是假贪?”
Recalling Li Fan's suggestion, the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone fell into deep thought.
“ shì zuò xì 、 hái shì běn xìng liú lù ?”
“是做戏、还是本性流露?”
...
“ yuán běn yǐ wéi kàn de hěn qīng chǔ , bù céng xiǎng xiàn zài jìng yǒu xiē kàn bù tòu le 。”
“原本以为看的很清楚,不曾想现在竟有些看不透了。”
In the Spirit Wood Realm's secret chamber,
lǐ fán lí qù zhī hòu , tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn jìng rán shuō chū le rú cǐ yī fān huà lái 。
李凡离去之后,天玄镜分身竟然说出了如此一番话来。
suppressing the excitement from the End of Time Disintegration Disc, Li Fan read about this second Immortal-level array.
“ gēn zhe yì qǐ chuǎng dàng xīng hǎi me ……”
“跟着一起闯荡星海么……”
"Hollow Desolation, Void Flower Blooming"
xiǎng qǐ zhī qián lǐ fán de tí yì , tiān xuán jìng fēn shēn xiàn rù le chén sī 。
想起之前李凡的提议,天玄镜分身陷入了沉思。
Li Fan's eyes flashed with a glint. "Sure enough, they belong to the same set of arrays, truly incredible."
……
……
The Xuanji and Ten Thousand Spirits Returning Numbers Great Array could transform everything within its scope into data.
líng mù jiè mì shì zhōng 。
灵木界密室中。
In contrast, the Hollow Desolation and Void Flower Blooming Great Array could create things from nothing in the void!
jiāng zhōng mò jiě lí dié chuán lái de zhèn zhèn jī dòng yā xià , lǐ fán yuè dú qǐ le zhè dì èr gè xiān jí zhèn fǎ de xìn xī 。
将终末解离碟传来的阵阵激动压下,李凡阅读起了这第二个仙级阵法的信息。
For example, anything in the Xuanhuang Realm—once one understood all the principles behind it and had ample Immortal energy—the new Xuanhuang Realm could be recreated in the void.
“ huāng luò 、 xū shì shēng huā ”
“荒落、虚室生花”
Pearl of the Vast Sea, Derivative Method Jade…
lǐ fán yǎn shén shǎn guò yī sī jīng guāng :“ guǒ rán shì tóng shǔ yú tóng yī tào zhèn fǎ , hái shì zhè bān de bù kě sī yì 。”
李凡眼神闪过一丝精光:“果然是同属于同一套阵法,还是这般的不可思议。”
All the rare treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm could be brought back to life with a thought!
xuán jī 、 wàn líng guī shù dà zhèn , néng jiāng zhèn fǎ lǒng zhào zhōng yī qiè guī yú shù jù huà 。 suí yì zhuǎn biàn 。
璇玑、万灵归数大阵,能将阵法笼罩中一切归于数据化。随意转变。
"It seems like there's an echo of the Faint Immortal seeing through the Xuanhuang Realm."
ér huāng luò 、 xū shì shēng huā dà zhèn , zé shì néng gòu xū kōng zào wù 、 wú zhōng shēng yǒu !
而荒落、虚室生花大阵,则是能够虚空造物、无中生有!
"However…"
bǐ rú xuán huáng yī jiè zhǒng zhǒng , zhǐ yào duì qí nèi suǒ yǒu shì wù de yuán lǐ dōu liǎo ruò zhǐ zhǎng 、 zài jiā shàng chōng zú de xiān lì gōng jǐ , jiù kě yú xū kōng zhōng zài zào xīn de xuán huáng jiè !
比如玄黄一界种种,只要对其内所有事物的原理都了若指掌、再加上充足的仙力供给,就可于虚空中再造新的玄黄界!
Li Fan had a hint of doubt. "This array is indeed incredibly mysterious, but how does it relate to the Floating Starlight Great Array?"
cāng hǎi zhū 、 yǎn fǎ jué ……
沧海珠、衍法珏……
Recalling the scattered descriptions of the Floating Starlight Great Array, Li Fan carefully studied the Void Flower Blooming Great Array again without finding any similarities.
xuán huáng jiè zhōng zhǒng zhǒng zhēn xī , quán dōu kě yǐ zài yí niàn zhī jiān chóng xiàn !
玄黄界中种种珍稀,全都可以在一念之间重现!
Thus, he resorted to using the End of Time Disintegration Disc for analysis.
“ sì hū yǒu diǎn yǔn xiān yī yǎn yìng zhào xuán huáng jiè de yì si 。”
“似乎有点陨仙一眼映照玄黄界的意思。”
Absorbing another Immortal-level array, especially one that originated from the same source,
“ bù guò ……”
“不过……”
the End of Time Disintegration Disc's analytical speed increased significantly.
lǐ fán xīn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī yí huò :“ zhè zhèn fǎ dí què xuán qí wú bǐ , bù guò yòu zěn me gēn fú dù xīng kōng dà zhèn chǎn shēng guān xì le ?”
李凡心中闪过一丝疑惑:“这阵法的确玄奇无比,不过又怎么跟浮渡星空大阵产生关系了?”
However, it still took seven days before Li Fan finally found a possible answer.
huí xiǎng qǐ guān yú fú dù xīng kōng dà zhèn de líng xīng miáo shù , lǐ fán jiāng zhè xū shì shēng huā dà zhèn yòu zǐ xì yán jiū le yī biàn , yī rán méi yǒu zhǎo dào xiāng sì de dì fāng 。
回想起关于浮渡星空大阵的零星描述,李凡将这虚室生花大阵又仔细研究了一遍,依然没有找到相似的地方。
Before his eyes, he seemed to see those golden chains extending from the Xuanhuang Realm and capturing many cultivator realms across infinite space.
yú shì zhǐ dé dòng yòng zhōng mò jiě lí dié fēn xī 。
于是只得动用终末解离碟分析。
"Ah, that's how…"
zài rù xī shōu le yí gè xiān jí dà zhèn , yóu qí zhè èr zhě hái shì tóng chū yī yuán 。
再入吸收了一个仙级大阵,尤其这二者还是同出一源。
"This item should only exist in the Immortal Realm…"
zhōng mò jiě lí dié de jiě xī sù dù yòu shàng le yí gè tái jiē 。
终末解离碟的解析速度又上了一个台阶。
"There are no materials for making these dark gold chains on the Mortal Realm. But back then, when Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian studied extensively and comprehended the Void Flower Blooming Great Array, he managed to create it in the Mortal Realm using the method of creating something from nothing, accomplishing what was impossible."
bù guò yī rán hái shì zú zú guò le qī tiān , lǐ fán cái zhōng yú cóng zhōng dé dào le kě néng de dá àn 。
不过依然还是足足过了七天,李凡才终于从中得到了可能的答案。
Gradually understanding, Li Fan couldn't help but feel more admiration for Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian.
lǐ fán de yǎn qián , sì hū yòu kàn dào le nà zì xuán huáng jiè zhōng shēn chū 、 kuà yuè wú jìn xū kōng , jiāng zhū duō xiū xiān jiè fú huò de àn jīn sè suǒ liàn 。
李凡的眼前,似乎又看到了那自玄黄界中伸出、跨越无尽虚空,将诸多修仙界俘获的暗金色锁链。
"Only by completely analyzing its power essence can one create things from the void. From this, we can see that back then, Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian was very close to becoming an Immortal, just missing the final step. If he had had immortal energy, he would have been a remarkable existence even among Immortals."
“ yuán lái shì zhè yàng ……”
“原来是这样……”
With each analysis by the End of Time Disintegration Disc, Li Fan's understanding of the Void Flower Blooming Great Array's incredible and vast nature deepened.
“ cǐ wù zhǐ yīng xiān jiè yǒu ……”
“此物只应仙界有……”
Therefore, he couldn't help but praise Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian for learning and mastering so much from the Immortal Realm on his own.
“ fán jiè gēn běn méi yǒu dǎ zào zhè àn jīn suǒ liàn de cái liào 。 bù guò dāng nián xuán tiān wáng xué jiū tiān rén , cān wù le zhè xū shì shēng huā dà zhèn , tōng guò píng kōng zào wù zhī fǎ , lèng shì bèi tā zài fán jiè jiāng qí chuàng zào le chū lái 。 zuò dào le yuán běn bù kě néng wán chéng zhī shì ……”
“凡界根本没有打造这暗金锁链的材料。不过当年玄天王学究天人,参悟了这虚室生花大阵,通过凭空造物之法,愣是被他在凡界将其创造了出来。做到了原本不可能完成之事……”
"No wonder the Xuan Tian sect still remembers him after all these years."
huǎn huǎn míng bái guò lái , lǐ fán xīn zhōng bù yóu zài dù shēng qǐ yī sī duì xuán tiān wáng de pèi fú 。
缓缓明白过来,李凡心中不由再度升起一丝对玄天王的佩服。
(End of Chapter)
"Now that I'm being watched so closely, there's not much to see. So this thing isn't very useful anymore. If you want it, I can give it to you," the Tai Xuan Mirror's clone said with a smile as he looked at Li Fan.
Li Fan directly refused, his expression slightly wary.

Gradually understanding, Li Fan couldn't help but feel more admiration for Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian.
"Only by completely analyzing its power essence can one create things from the void. From this, we can see that back then, Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian was very close to becoming an Immortal, just missing the final step. If he had had immortal energy, he would have been a remarkable existence even among Immortals."
With each analysis by the End of Time Disintegration Disc, Li Fan's understanding of the Void Flower Blooming Great Array's incredible and vast nature deepened.
Therefore, he couldn't help but praise Heavenly Emperor Xuan Tian for learning and mastering so much from the Immortal Realm on his own.
"No wonder the Xuan Tian sect still remembers him after all these years."
