Ninefold City, Chapter 106: The Catastrophe Beyond Ninefold
“ jīn tiān kě shì gè hǎo rì zi a 。” zhào xiàn zài qián fāng jīn sè qì shū shàng xiě xià le zì jǐ dà míng ， dài dào yī lǚ jīn guāng fēi rù tǐ nèi 、 qì yuē chéng lì ， tā kāi xīn de dà xiào dào 。
“今天可是个好日子啊。”赵宪在前方金色契书上写下了自己大名，待到一缕金光飞入体内、契约成立，他开心的大笑道。
The entire Ninefold World was in chaos. The ground trembled as countless black dots appeared everywhere, swallowing everything around them like a bottomless abyss. The world seemed to be tearing apart into countless fragments.
diàn zhōng de wǔ lǎo huì yī xíng rén ， shōu qǐ qì shū ， tóng yàng miàn lù xǐ sè 、 chū shēng fù hè 。
店中的五老会一行人，收起契书，同样面露喜色、出声附和。
In the midst of this catastrophe, Li Fan stood on the edge of the Ninefold World, his mind racing with thoughts. He had just witnessed the destruction of the Ninefold World and was now faced with an even greater threat.
jiē xià lái de dà bàn tiān ， zhào xiàn yòu gēn wǔ lǎo huì fāng miàn jiù mào yì xié yì jìn xíng le gèng jiā xiáng xì de xié shāng 。 zhí dào bǎ tā men sòng zhì chéng nèi zhāo dài dòng fǔ xiū xī ， zhào xiàn zhè cái zhǎng shū yì kǒu qì 。
接下来的大半天，赵宪又跟五老会方面就贸易协议进行了更加详细的协商。直到把他们送至城内招待洞府休息，赵宪这才长舒一口气。
Suddenly, a beam of light pierced through the void, heading straight for him. "No!" Li Fan shouted as he realized that this was not a transmission from beyond the world, but rather the arrival of the Healer.
méi yǒu fǎn huí zì jǐ dòng fǔ ， ér shì zhuǎn shēn huí dào le diàn pù 、 jìn rù le dì xià mì shì lǐ 。
没有返回自己洞府，而是转身回到了店铺、进入了地下密室里。
Their eyes met, both showing signs of shock and disbelief. Li Fan's mind raced as he processed what had just happened. The Healer, who should have been long gone, had somehow returned to the Ninefold World. And now, this Healer was extracting the essence of the world without hesitation.
kàn zhe yǐn cáng zài hēi àn zhōng de wú miàn shí xiàng ， zhào xiàn shén sè fù zá 、 sī xù wàn qiān 。
看着隐藏在黑暗中的无面石像，赵宪神色复杂、思绪万千。
Li Fan quickly focused on drawing out the essence of the world around him, causing a dramatic transformation in his Five Elements Great Void Realm. The once desolate realm began to flourish as the barriers between the five realms gradually dissolved. A new world, teeming with life and vitality, was being formed before Li Fan's eyes.
zì cóng wàn jiè lián hé huì bèi wàn xiān méng zhū miè 、 bìng bèi liè rù yǒng jiǔ bǔ shā míng dān zhī hòu ， zuò wéi lián hé huì zài jiǔ shān zhōu de àn zi ， zhào xiàn jiù yì zhí shēng huó zài dān jīng shòu pà zhī zhōng 。
自从万界联合会被万仙盟诛灭、并被列入永久捕杀名单之后，作为联合会在九山州的暗子，赵宪就一直生活在担惊受怕之中。
However, this newfound sense of peace did not last long. Li Fan suddenly felt a sense of danger. A beam of light shot through the void, locking onto him in an instant.
měi tiān xīn shén bù níng ， shí cháng huì chū xiàn wàn xiān méng zhǎo shàng mén 、 bǎ zì jǐ tū rán dài bǔ de huàn jué 。
每天心神不宁，时常会出现万仙盟找上门、把自己突然逮捕的幻觉。
The two faced each other, both showing signs of shock. The Healer was surprised to see that he had returned from beyond the world, while Li Fan was equally shocked by the Healer's actions.
ér méi yǒu le lián hé huì tí gōng wù zī ， diàn pù de huò yuán yě shòu dào le jí dà de yǐng xiǎng 。 kè liú liàng měi rì xià huá ， jī hū jiù yào jiān chí bù xià qù 。 zuì hòu hái shì tā sì chù qiú yé yé gào nǎi nǎi ， bǎ zhè xiē nián jī zǎn de jiā dǐ quán dōu yòng guāng ， zhè cái miǎn qiǎng chóng jiàn le gōng yìng liàn 。
而没有了联合会提供物资，店铺的货源也受到了极大的影响。客流量每日下滑，几乎就要坚持不下去。最后还是他四处求爷爷告奶奶，把这些年积攒的家底全都用光，这才勉强重建了供应链。
Li Fan quickly recited the words for 'True Realization' and activated it. The scene around them became ethereal as the Healer's eyes widened in shock.
“ hǎo zài yī qiè dōu guò qù le 。” zhào xiàn xīn zhōng rú cǐ shuō dào 。
“好在一切都过去了。”赵宪心中如此说道。
In this moment of clarity, Li Fan saw a brilliant light emerging from the Ninefold World. This light was resisting the overwhelming power of the Void Realm, moving towards him at an accelerated pace.
lián hé huì de fēng bō yǐ jīng píng xī 。
联合会的风波已经平息。
"Faceless True Immortal!" Li Fan's heart raced as he realized that his secret had been discovered. The Healer's threat seemed to fade into insignificance in comparison to this new danger.
zài wàn xiān méng sōu bǔ zuì wèi yán lì de rì zi lǐ ， tā men dōu méi néng fā xiàn zhào xiàn de zhēn shí shēn fèn 。 yǐ hòu yīng gāi yě dōu méi shén me wēi xiǎn le 。
在万仙盟搜捕最为严厉的日子里，他们都没能发现赵宪的真实身份。以后应该也都没什么危险了。
Li Fan quickly activated 'True Realization' and the scene around them became ethereal, with only the brilliant light moving towards him at an accelerated pace.
jīng guò tā jǐ nián de kǔ xīn jīng yíng ， diàn lǐ de shēng yì yě chóng xīn zǒu xiàng zhèng guī 。 zuì jìn gèng shì hé wǔ lǎo huì de yī zhī shāng duì dá chéng le shāng yè xié yì 。 měi nián guāng shì gù dìng de jiāo yì wù zī ， jià zhí jiù gāo dá shàng qiān wàn gòng xiàn dù 。
经过他几年的苦心经营，店里的生意也重新走向正规。最近更是和五老会的一支商队达成了商业协议。每年光是固定的交易物资，价值就高达上千万贡献度。
As Li Fan struggled to activate True Realization, he saw a blood-red net spreading out from his body. The net was filled with countless faces, each one representing the suffering of trillions of souls.
“ suī rán méi yǒu le zhēn xiān shǎng cì ， dàn guāng kào diàn lǐ de lì rùn ， yě zú yǐ zhī chēng wǒ yī lù xiū xíng dào huà shén jìng jiè le 。”
“虽然没有了真仙赏赐，但光靠店里的利润，也足以支撑我一路修行到化神境界了。”
The brilliant light ignored the net and continued its relentless pursuit. Li Fan felt his mind freeze as the light approached him.
“ lián hé huì fù miè ， lì rùn bù yòng shàng jiāo 、 jǐn bèi wǒ shōu rù náng zhōng 。 guò de shèn zhì bǐ qǐ zhī qián hái yào zī rùn ……” zhào xiàn pǒ yǒu xiē dé yì de xiǎng dào 。
“联合会覆灭，利润不用上交、尽被我收入囊中。过的甚至比起之前还要滋润……”赵宪颇有些得意的想道。
Just when it seemed like all hope was lost, Li Fan managed to activate True Realization in time. The scene around them became ethereal once again, with only the brilliant light remaining.
“ guǒ rán shì huò fú xiāng yī ， shì shì wú cháng 。”
“果然是祸福相依，世事无常。”
Li Fan stood there, drenched in sweat and gasping for breath. "This is the power of a True Immortal," he thought as he realized that even trillions of souls could not stand against this power.
zuì hòu zài kàn le yī yǎn wú miàn shí xiàng ， zhào xiàn xīn zhōng yǐ jīng jué dìng ， yǒng jiǔ jiāng zhè chù dì xià mì shì fēng cún 。
最后再看了一眼无面石像，赵宪心中已经决定，永久将这处地下密室封存。
He had narrowly escaped death, but now faced an even greater challenge. The Healer's presence loomed over him like a dark cloud, and Li Fan knew that he must overcome this threat if he was to survive.
jīn hòu guān yú tā céng jīng shì wàn jiè lián hé huì yī yuán de mì mì ， jiù yǒng yuǎn bú huì yǒu rén zhī xiǎo le 。
今后关于他曾经是万界联合会一员的秘密，就永远不会有人知晓了。
