“ shèn zhì ， huò xǔ hái kě yǐ bǎ tā men zhuǎn huà wèi cí bēi zhēn xiān de xìn tú ！”
“甚至，或许还可以把他们转化为慈悲真仙的信徒！”
"Even, perhaps they can be converted into believers of the Compassionate True Immortal!"
kàn zhe shēn biān nà xiē zài zhèn fǎ xíng fá xià ， fā chū cǎn tòng āi háo de wú shù qiú tú men 。 kòu hóng gǎn tóng shēn shòu ， ruò yǒu suǒ sī dào 。
看着身边那些在阵法刑罚下，发出惨痛哀嚎的无数囚徒们。寇洪感同身受，若有所思道。
Looking at those countless prisoners who were emitting painful wails under the array punishment around him, Cao Hong felt a sense of empathy and thought deeply.
“ bù guò zhè lǐ bì jìng shì yán gé kān guǎn de jiān yù ， xiǎng yào zuò dào zhè diǎn ， hái xū yào cóng cháng jì yì 。”
“不过这里毕竟是严格看管的监狱，想要做到这点，还需要从长计议。”
"But this place is still strictly managed. To achieve that would require careful planning."
kòu hóng mù guāng shǎn dòng ， zài cì yòng tóng yàng de nù chì shēng yǎn shì zì jǐ 。
寇洪目光闪动，再次用同样的怒斥声掩饰自己。
Cao Hong's eyes flashed as he used the same angry tone to cover himself again, but this time deliberately showing signs of intermittent weakness and lack of energy.
bù guò zhè yī cì ， tā kè yì biǎo xiàn chū shí duàn shí xù 、 yǒu qì wú lì de mú yàng 。
不过这一次，他刻意表现出时断时续、有气无力的模样。
It seemed like he was struggling to hold on.
sì hū yǒu xiē jiān chí bú zhù le 。
似乎有些坚持不住了。
For a period of time, Cao Hong used his apparent complete submission to divert the guards' attention away from him. Meanwhile, he frantically studied the array details and secretly accumulated power to enhance himself.
jiē xià lái yī duàn shí jiān ， kòu hóng yòng zì jǐ biǎo miàn shàng de chè dǐ qū fú ， jiāng yù zú de zhù yì lì cóng zì jǐ shēn shàng zhuǎn yí kāi 。
接下来一段时间，寇洪用自己表面上的彻底屈服，将狱卒的注意力从自己身上转移开。
He had now realized that the warm current of the Compassionate True Immortal's grace mysteriously appearing in his body was actually the cultivation level that cultivators yearned for.
ér tā zé shì měi tiān fēng kuáng de xué xí zhèn fǎ xiáng jiě ， yǐ jí àn zhōng jī xù tí shēng zì jǐ de shí lì 。
而他则是每天疯狂的学习阵法详解，以及暗中积蓄提升自己的实力。
According to conventional understanding, only through daily arduous practice would one accumulate this source of strength to advance their realm. But at this moment, it seemed like a never-ending stream nourishing his body.
xiàn zài tā yě yǐ jīng fǎn yìng guò lái le 。
现在他也已经反应过来了。
His power was thus rapidly increasing at an unimaginable rate.
nà gǔ cí bēi zhēn xiān de ēn cì ， mò míng chū xiàn zài tǐ nèi de rè liú ， jìng rán jiù shì xiū shì men mèng mèi yǐ qiú de xiū wèi 。
那股慈悲真仙的恩赐，莫名出现在体内的热流，竟然就是修士们梦寐以求的修为。
In just half a month, he had directly broken through to Golden Core Perfection.
cháng guī rèn zhī zhōng ， zhǐ yǒu xiū shì rì yè kǔ xiū cái huì jī zǎn xià lái ， chéng wéi tí shēng jìng jiè de yuán dòng lì 。 dàn shì cǐ kè ， què shì rú wú yuán zhī shuǐ bān ， yuán yuán bù jué de guàn gài zhe tā de shēn tǐ 。
常规认知中，只有修士日夜苦修才会积攒下来，成为提升境界的源动力。但是此刻，却是如无源之水般，源源不绝的灌溉着他的身体。
This made Cao Hong even more convinced that all these miraculous events happening to him were undoubtedly the Compassionate True Immortal's grace!
ér tā de shí lì yě shì yīn cǐ zài yǐ yī zhǒng nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de kǒng bù sù dù fēi sù tí shēng zhe 。
而他的实力也是因此在以一种难以想象的恐怖速度飞速提升着。
After all, it took him two hundred years as a mortal to advance from Foundation Establishment to Middle Golden Core. But now, breaking through was just a blink of an eye away.
qián hòu bù guò bàn gè yuè de shí jiān ， jiù yǐ jīng zhí jiē tū pò dào le jīn dān yuán mǎn 。
前后不过半个月的时间，就已经直接突破到了金丹圆满。
Initially, Cao Hong thought that reaching Golden Core Perfection would be his limit. However, what happened next completely shattered his understanding and made him realize the true power of True Immortals!
zhè ràng kòu hóng gèng jiā jiān xìn ， fā shēng zài zì jǐ shēn shàng zhè xiē bù kě sī yì de zhǒng zhǒng qí jì ， jué duì shì cí bēi zhēn xiān de ēn cì ！
这让寇洪更加坚信，发生在自己身上这些不可思议的种种奇迹，绝对是慈悲真仙的恩赐！
It was well-known that one needed to devour the Heavenly Cave within the Yellow-Ember World to advance from Golden Core to Foundation Establishment.
yào zhī dào ， tā cóng fán rén xiū liàn dào jīn dān zhōng qī ， kě shì zú zú yòng le liǎng bǎi duō nián ！
要知道，他从凡人修炼到金丹中期，可是足足用了两百多年！
At this moment, Cao Hong was still in the Dark Prison, so he naturally couldn't meet this requirement.
ér xiàn zài ， pò jìng zhǐ zài zhǎ yǎn jiān 。
而现在，破境只在眨眼间。
But three days later, something astonishing happened. When he circulated his spirit energy and checked himself, he discovered a faintly visible Heavenly Cave image emerging in his dantian!
yuán běn kòu hóng yǐ wéi ， jīn dān yuán mǎn yǐ jīng shì jí xiàn le 。 dàn jiē xià lái fā shēng de shì qíng ， zé shì chè dǐ dǎ pò le tā de rèn zhī ， ràng tā míng bái le shén me shì zhēn xiān shén lì ！
原本寇洪以为，金丹圆满已经是极限了。但接下来发生的事情，则是彻底打破了他的认知，让他明白了什么是真仙神力！
After further contemplation, Cao Hong confirmed that this Heavenly Cave image was not an illusion but truly existed.
zhòng suǒ zhōu zhī ， jīn dān jìng xiǎng yào tū pò dào yuán yīng jìng ， xū yào tūn shì xuán huáng jiè dòng tiān 。
众所周知，金丹境想要突破到元婴境，需要吞噬玄黄界洞天。
A Heavenly Cave was being born within him!
cǐ kè kòu hóng shàng qiě shēn chù yōu yù zhī zhōng ， zì rán shì wú fǎ mǎn zú zhè ge tiáo jiàn de 。
此刻寇洪尚且身处幽狱之中，自然是无法满足这个条件的。
Even without considering it as the Compassionate True Immortal's grace, Cao Hong quickly accepted it. With the help of this newborn Heavenly Cave, he officially broke through to Foundation Establishment in a month!
bù guò sān tiān zhī hòu ， ràng kòu hóng hài rán bù zhǐ de shì qíng fā shēng le 。
不过三天之后，让寇洪骇然不止的事情发生了。
The various anomalies during his realm breakthrough were perfectly masked by the True Immortal power surging within.
yīn wèi dāng tā yùn zhuàn líng lì 、 xún chá zì shēn de shí hòu ， jìng rán fā xiàn dān tián zhī zhōng ， yǐn yǐn fú xiàn le yí gè xū huàn de dòng tiān jǐng xiàng ！
因为当他运转灵力、巡查自身的时候，竟然发现丹田之中，隐隐浮现了一个虚幻的洞天景象！
---
zài gèng jiā zǐ xì de gǎn wù ， kòu hóng què dìng ， zhè dòng tiān xū yǐng ， bú shì huàn jué 。
再更加仔细的感悟，寇洪确定，这洞天虚影，不是幻觉。
Without drawing attention from the Dark Prison guards, Cao Hong looked at his hands, as if in a dream.
ér shì zhēn shí cún zài de ！
而是真实存在的！
Reaching Foundation Establishment was something he had only dared to dream of before. Yet it happened so easily.
yí gè dòng tiān ， zhèng zài zì jǐ tǐ nèi dàn shēng ！
一个洞天，正在自己体内诞生！
"Supreme Compassionate True Immortal, I, Cao Hong, know not what virtue or merit I have that you bestow such favor upon me."
bú yào shuō ， zhè yòu shì cí bēi zhēn xiān de ēn cì 。
不要说，这又是慈悲真仙的恩赐。
"I will surely fulfill your request no matter the cost."
kòu hóng hěn kuài jiù qīng sōng jiē shòu le zhè diǎn ， jiè zhù zhè chū shēng de dòng tiān ， tā zài yí gè yuè hòu ， zhèng shì tū pò dào le yuán yīng jìng ！
寇洪很快就轻松接受了这点，借助这初生的洞天，他在一个月后，正式突破到了元婴境！
In the shadows, Cao Hong's gaze grew resolute as he entered Foundation Establishment.
tū pò jìng jiè shí yǐn fā de zhǒng zhǒng yì dòng ， bèi tǐ nèi yǒng xiàn de zhēn xiān zhī lì gěi wán měi zhē yǎn zhù 。
突破境界时引发的种种异动，被体内涌现的真仙之力给完美遮掩住。
Since entering Foundation Establishment, his strength continued to grow daily. But now, most of his attention was focused on breaking through the array and rescuing prisoners from the Dark Prison.
méi yǒu yǐn qǐ yōu yù yù zú de chá jué 。
没有引起幽狱狱卒的察觉。
"Alone, I find it difficult to accomplish this."
kòu hóng kàn zhe zì jǐ de shuāng shǒu ， yí zài mèng zhōng 。
寇洪看着自己的双手，疑在梦中。
"But where can I find help in this prison?"
yuán yīng jìng ， yǐ wǎng zhǐ shì mèng zhōng cái gǎn xiǎng de jìng jiè ， jìng rán rú cǐ qīng yì jiù bèi tā dá chéng le 。
元婴境，以往只是梦中才敢想的境界，竟然如此轻易就被他达成了。
Cao Hong secretly observed his "neighbors," carefully selecting a suitable partner for collaboration.
“ wú shàng cí bēi zhēn xiān ， wǒ kòu hóng bù zhī hé dé hé néng ， dé nín rú cǐ hòu ài 。”
“无上慈悲真仙，我寇洪不知何德何能，得您如此厚爱。”
After some time, one day, Li Fan received Cao Hong's message and couldn't help but smile slightly. But he pretended not to see it and gave no response.
“ shì bì wán chéng nín de zhǔ tuō ， wàn sǐ bù cí 。”
“势必完成您的嘱托，万死不辞。”
Undeterred, Cao Hong continued trying several times before finally giving up in resignation.
yīn yǐng zhōng de kòu hóng kàn zhe zhōu wéi wú shù gāo sǒng de yōu yù ， yǎn shén zhú jiàn jiān dìng 。
阴影中的寇洪看着周围无数高耸的幽狱，眼神逐渐坚定。
"Did I make the wrong judgment?"
chū rù yuán yīng zhī hòu ， kòu hóng de shí lì yī jiù měi tiān bù duàn cèng cèng zì dòng wǎng shàng zhǎng 。 dàn shì tā de zhǔ yào zhù yì lì ， yǐ jīng jí zhōng zài le pò zhèn 、 jiě jiù yōu yù zhōng de qiú fàn shàng le 。
初入元婴之后，寇洪的实力依旧每天不断蹭蹭自动往上长。但是他的主要注意力，已经集中在了破阵、解救幽狱中的囚犯上了。
"It shouldn't be."
“ píng wǒ yī rén ， xiǎng yào zuò chéng cǐ shì ， shí zài yǒu xiē kùn nán 。”
“凭我一人，想要做成此事，实在有些困难。”
Just as Cao Hong was stuck, a new prisoner caught his attention.
“ dàn zài zhè jiān yù zhī zhōng ， yòu nǎ lǐ qù zhǎo bāng shǒu ne ？”
“但在这监狱之中，又哪里去找帮手呢？”
This person wasn't from the Interdimensional Federation. He had been imprisoned here for breaking Alliance Law.
kòu hóng qiāo qiāo guān chá zhe zhōu wéi de “ lín jū ”， tiāo xuǎn zhe hé shì de hé zuò duì xiàng 。
寇洪悄悄观察着周围的“邻居”，挑选着合适的合作对象。
Based on his crimes, he probably wouldn't have a chance to leave this place alive.
rú cǐ ， bù zhī guò qù le duō jiǔ 。
如此，不知过去了多久。
"You insects always want to end your lives and offset your sins."
zhè yī tiān ， lǐ fán kàn zhe kòu hóng chuán lái de xiāo xī ， bù yóu wēi wēi yī xiào 。
这一天，李凡看着寇洪传来的消息，不由微微一笑。
"It's not that easy!"
què zhǐ shì jiǎ zhuāng méi kàn dào ， méi yǒu gěi chū rèn hé de huí yìng 。
却只是假装没看到，没有给出任何的回应。
"I will make you suffer until death is impossible, rotting in this Dark Prison for the rest of your life!" The cultivator responsible for escorting him growled.
kòu hóng yòu bù sǐ xīn de jì xù cháng shì le jǐ cì ， zuì hòu bù dé yǐ wú nài xuǎn zé le fàng qì 。
寇洪又不死心的继续尝试了几次，最后不得以无奈选择了放弃。
The prisoner remained silent but his eyes were filled with disdain and murderous intent.
“ nán dào shì wǒ pàn duàn cuò le ？”
“难道是我判断错了？”
But under the harsh array pressure, all turned into painful cries.
“ bù yīng gāi a 。”
“不应该啊。”
In extreme pain, one's subconscious words often reveal their true thoughts.
zhèng dāng kòu hóng xiàn rù kùn jìng de shí hòu ， yī míng xīn dào lái de qiú fàn ， dùn shí yǐn qǐ le tā de zhù yì 。
正当寇洪陷入困境的时候，一名新到来的囚犯，顿时引起了他的注意。
Cao Hong listened to this new neighbor's words for several days and confirmed that he was indeed a potential partner.
cǐ rén bìng bú shì wàn jiè lián hé huì de chéng yuán ， yīn wèi chù fā le xiān méng lǜ fǎ ér bèi guān yā zhì cǐ 。
此人并不是万界联合会的成员，因为触发了仙盟律法而被关押至此。
On that day, after enduring torture until near death, Cao Hong secretly broke through the array and sent him a message.
yǐ tā fàn xià de zuì lái kàn ， kǒng pà zhè bèi zi méi yǒu chū qù de jī huì le 。
以他犯下的罪来看，恐怕这辈子没有出去的机会了。
---
“ xiàn zài nǐ men zhè xiē chóng zhì ， dòng bù dòng jiù xiǎng yī sǐ liǎo zhī 、 dǐ xiāo zì jǐ zuì niè 。”
“现在你们这些虫豸，动不动就想一死了之、抵消自己罪孽。”
The prisoner instantly opened his eyes, trying to locate Cao Hong. But it was clearly futile.
“ nǎ yǒu zhè me róng yì ！”
“哪有这么容易！”
After their exchange, Cao Hong learned his name: Zhang Fu.
“ wǒ jiù yào ràng nǐ qiú sǐ bù néng ， xià bàn bèi zi yǒng yuǎn zài zhè bù jiàn tiān rì de yōu yù lǐ fǔ làn fā chóu ！” fù zé yā jiè de wàn xiān méng xiū shì yǎo yá qiè chǐ de shuō dào 。
“我就要让你求死不能，下半辈子永远在这不见天日的幽狱里腐烂发愁！”负责押解的万仙盟修士咬牙切齿的说道。
His crime wasn't major; he had simply pocketed one-third of the profits from the Black Ink State Alchemy Hall for himself.
ér nà míng qiú fàn ， zé shì mò bù zuò shēng 。 zhǐ shì kàn xiàng duì fāng de yǎn shén zhōng ， chōng mǎn le bù xiè yǔ shā qì 。
而那名囚犯，则是默不作声。只是看向对方的眼神中，充满了不屑与杀气。
In the past, such a matter could be resolved by spending some contribution points and using connections. But this time, an enemy knew about it and reported him directly to the Immortal Alliance headquarters.
bù guò hěn kuài zài cán kù zhèn fǎ de zhèn yā xià ， jǐn jiē huà zuò le cǎn hū zhī shēng 。
不过很快在残酷阵法的镇压下，尽皆化作了惨呼之声。
The Immortal Alliance's response was unusually swift. Before Zhang Fu could even try to smooth things over, representatives arrived from headquarters. After a simple investigation, evidence confirmed his guilt, and he was immediately apprehended without going through the usual review process before being sent to the Dark Prison.
rén zài jí duān tòng kǔ xià ， xià yì shí de fā yán ， zǒng shì zuì jiē jìn zì jǐ nèi xīn zuì zhēn shí xiǎng fǎ de 。
人在极端痛苦下，下意识的发言，总是最接近自己内心最真实想法的。
Zhang Fu realized he had been set up.
kòu hóng zài páng tīng le shù rì ， zhè wèi xīn lái lín jū de huà yǔ hòu ， què dìng le tā dí què shì kě yǐ hé zuò de duì xiàng 。
寇洪在旁听了数日，这位新来邻居的话语后，确定了他的确是可以合作的对象。
Initially thinking he would never escape this life, he unexpectedly found an opportunity.
zhè yī rì děng dài tā bèi zhé mó de yǎn yǎn yī xī zhī hòu ， qiāo qiāo chuān tòu zhèn fǎ 、 chuán dì le xiāo xī 。
这一日等待他被折磨的奄奄一息之后，悄悄穿透阵法、传递了消息。
"Helping release prisoners in the Dark Prison?"
duì fāng shà shí zhēng kāi le shuāng yǎn ， xiǎng yào què dìng kòu hóng de wèi zhì 。
对方霎时睁开了双眼，想要确定寇洪的位置。
"That's a capital crime. Even though everyone can be reborn now, I heard that the Immortal Alliance has reached some agreement with the Transmigration Heavenly Venerable. Those who commit unforgivable crimes within the Alliance will lose their chance to be reborn and truly die!"
míng xiǎn zhǐ shì tú láo wú gōng 。
明显只是徒劳无功。
"Like those members of the Interdimensional Federation."
zài jīng guò shuāng fāng de yī fān jiāo liú zhī hòu ， kòu hóng yě zhī xiǎo le tā de míng zì 。
在经过双方的一番交流之后，寇洪也知晓了他的名字。
Unaware of Cao Hong's sudden tremor nearby, Zhang Fu continued speaking: "Even though I am trapped here with no hope of escape, it is still better than true death."
zhāng fú 。
张福。
"Maybe one day, there will be a general amnesty from the Immortal Alliance?"
fàn dé yě bú shì shén me dà shì ， bù guò shì bǎ mò líng zhōu dān táng yī nián sān fēn zhī yī de lì rùn gěi dú tūn le ér yǐ 。
犯得也不是什么大事，不过是把墨灵州丹堂一年三分之一的利润给独吞了而已。
Initially unwilling to help, Zhang Fu even secretly thought about reporting this schemer and redeeming himself. But his partner's words changed his mind.
fàng zài yǐ qián ， zhè zhǒng shì jiù suàn dōng chuāng shì fā ， zhǐ yào huā diǎn gòng xiàn dù 、 zhǎo zhǎo guān xì ， pò cái xiāo zāi 。 yě jiù guò qù le 。
放在以前，这种事就算东窗事发，只要花点贡献度、找找关系，破财消灾。也就过去了。
"In this place, death is a relief."
dàn zhè cì piān piān bù qiǎo de shì ， tā de yí gè sǐ duì tou bù zhī zěn de yě zhī xiǎo le zhè jiàn shì 。
但这次偏偏不巧的是，他的一个死对头不知怎的也知晓了这件事。
"If you don't believe me, just look at those around you."
zhí jiē jǔ bào dào le xiān méng zǒng bù 。
直接举报到了仙盟总部。
