「 zhè me zuò ， shì fǒu yǒu xiē bào tiǎn tiān wù le ？」
「这么做，是否有些暴殄天物了？」
"Is this a bit of a waste?"
shāng shǎo jūn dāng zhe xīn fù yán huàn de miàn ， qiāo qiāo gěi lǐ fán chuán yīn xún wèn dào 。
商少君当着心腹阎焕的面，悄悄给李凡传音询问道。
Shaojun, addressing Yan Huan, whispered to Li Fan.
suí hòu shāng shǎo jūn kàn zhe lǐ fán nà sì xiào fēi xiào de shén qíng ， zì jǐ yě jué de yǒu xiē bù tuǒ 。
随后商少君看着李凡那似笑非笑的神情，自己也觉得有些不妥。
Afterward, Shaojun noticed the faint smile on Li Fan's face and felt a bit uneasy. He cleared his throat lightly, trying to mask his discomfort.
wēi wēi qīng ké le yī shēng ， yǎn shì zì jǐ gān gà 。
微微轻咳了一声，掩饰自己尴尬。
"The name 'Immortal Heart Spell' is too conspicuous. Young Master could change it to something more ordinary before passing it down," Li Fan reminded him.
「 xiān xīn zhòu yī míng ， tài guò zhāo yáo 。 shǎo jūn kě gǎi gè pǔ tōng diǎn de míng zì ， chuán shòu xià qù 。」 lǐ fán tí xǐng dào 。
「仙心咒一名，太过招摇。少君可改个普通点的名字，传授下去。」李凡提醒道。
Shaojun recalled the techniques derived by Yan Jue using the Taiyin Method and said to Yan Huan, "This is called [Refining Heart Technique], passed on by a senior. It can protect you from being corrupted by evil sounds. You must teach this to everyone in your army as soon as possible."
shāng shǎo jūn lián xiǎng dào cǐ qián yǎn fǎ jué tuī yǎn de gōng fǎ ， kāi kǒu duì yán huàn dào ：「 cǐ wèi 【 duàn xīn jué 】， nǎi shì zhè wèi qián bèi suǒ chuán 。 kě bǎo nǐ men miǎn shòu mó yīn qīn shí 。 nǐ jǐn kuài jiāng qí biàn chuán quán jūn 、 wù bì zuò dào měi gè rén dōu xué huì 。」
商少君联想到此前衍法珏推衍的功法，开口对阎焕道：「此为【锻心诀】，乃是这位前辈所传。可保你们免受魔音侵蚀。你尽快将其遍传全军、务必做到每个人都学会。」
Yan Huan didn't show much surprise when he heard Shaojun's words; instead, he bowed and immediately tried practicing it.
duàn xīn jué zhè míng zì tài guò pǔ tōng ， yǐ zhì yú yán huàn zài tīng dào shāng shǎo jūn huà yǔ zhī hòu ， bìng méi yǒu biǎo xiàn chū tài duō jīng xǐ 。 zhǐ shì gōng shēn lǐng mìng ， dāng chǎng cháng shì zhe xiū xíng qǐ lái 。
锻心诀这名字太过普通，以致于阎焕在听到商少君话语之后，并没有表现出太多惊喜。只是躬身领命，当场尝试着修行起来。
"Having such secret techniques but not knowing about them... truly..."
「 néng yǒu rú cǐ mì shù bàng shēn ， tā men què bù zì zhī ， dàng zhēn shì ……」
「能有如此秘术傍身，他们却不自知，当真是……」
Shaojun felt a bit of nostalgia watching Yan Huan walk away.
kàn zhe yán huàn yuǎn qù de bèi yǐng ， shāng shǎo jūn hái shì yǒu xiē gǎn kǎi 。
看着阎焕远去的背影，商少君还是有些感慨。
"If they knew how precious this technique is, maybe they would be too anxious to learn it," Li Fan said.
「 ruò shì tā men zhī xiǎo zhè mén mì shù de zhēn guì ， shuō bù dìng fǎn dào huì huàn dé huàn shī 、 nán yǐ xué huì 。」 lǐ fán què rú cǐ shuō dào 。
「若是他们知晓这门秘术的珍贵，说不定反倒会患得患失、难以学会。」李凡却如此说道。
"The Green Azure Army has a million soldiers. Although I have forbidden its external transmission, the Immortal Heart Spell might still leak out. Are you not worried about that?" Shaojun looked at Li Fan with confusion.
「 qīng xuán jūn bǎi wàn zhòng ， suī rán wǒ yǐ jīng xià lìng yán jìn wài zhuàn 。 dàn xiān xīn zhòu wài xiè ， kǒng pà shì wú fǎ bì miǎn zhī shì 。 dào yǒu jiù bù dān yōu me ？」 shāng shǎo jūn mǎn shì bù jiě de kàn zhe lǐ fán 。
「青玄军百万众，虽然我已经下令严禁外传。但仙心咒外泄，恐怕是无法避免之事。道友就不担忧么？」商少君满是不解的看着李凡。
His actions since arriving at the Eternal Immortal Barrier were completely beyond Shaojun's understanding.
duì fāng lái dào yǒng héng xiān lěi hòu de yī xì liè xíng wéi ， shāng shǎo jūn dōu gēn běn zhuō mō bù tòu 。
对方来到永恒仙垒后的一系列行为，商少君都根本捉摸不透。
It wasn't for fame or profit.
wèi míng bú shì ， wèi lì yě bú shì 。
为名不是，为利也不是。
"Xuanhuang cultivators cherish their techniques like a broom, even though it is affected by the rule of not practicing them simultaneously. Over time, their inner beliefs have changed."
「 xuán huáng xiū shì ， bì zhǒu zì zhēn 。 suī shuō shì shòu dào fǎ bù kě tóng xiū de yǐng xiǎng ， dàn zài bù zhī bù jué jiān ， xiū shì men de nèi xīn rèn zhī yǐ jīng gǎi biàn 。」
「玄黄修士，敝帚自珍。虽说是受到法不可同修的影响，但在不知不觉间，修士们的内心认知已经改变。」
"The grand era of people discussing and sharing knowledge has long vanished."
「 shàng gǔ xiū xiān jiè shí qī ， rén men zuò ér lùn dào 、 bǐ cǐ jiāo liú fēn xiǎng de shèng jǐng ， què shì zài yě jiàn bú dào le 。」
「上古修仙界时期，人们坐而论道、彼此交流分享的盛景，却是再也见不到了。」
"I don't like that at all," Li Fan said indifferently.
「 wǒ hěn bù xǐ huān 。」
「我很不喜欢。」
His demeanor outside was truly ethereal and transcendent.
shèng tāi lǐ fán dàn dàn dì shuō dào 。
圣胎李凡淡淡地说道。
"Let it be passed down if it suits me. What's the harm in it being an Immortal Technique?"
pèi hé shàng tā zài wài rén miàn qián de zuò wéi ， dàng zhēn yǒu zhǒng chū chén de chāo fán sǎ tuō zhī gǎn 。
配合上他在外人面前的作为，当真有种出尘的超凡洒脱之感。
Shaojun couldn't help but feel a bit dazed looking at Li Fan.
「 chuán biàn chuán le ， zhǐ yào shùn wǒ xīn yì ， jiù suàn shì xiān fǎ yòu rú hé ？」
「传便传了，只要顺我心意，就算是仙法又如何？」
Such boldness was rare indeed.
shāng shǎo jūn kàn zhe lǐ fán de shēn yǐng ， bù jīn yǒu xiē shī shén 。
商少君看着李凡的身影，不禁有些失神。
Being around such a person made Shaojun feel more spirited as well.
rú cǐ háo qì ， dàng zhēn shì zhī hǎn jiàn 。
如此豪气，当真世之罕见。
...
gēn zhè yàng de rén wù dài zài yì qǐ ， shāng shǎo jūn shèn zhì dōu gǎn jué zì jǐ yě biàn dé háo qíng wàn zhàng qǐ lái 。
跟这样的人物待在一起，商少君甚至都感觉自己也变得豪情万丈起来。
With all matters of the Eternal Immortal Barrier settled, there were no further concerns.
……
……
Shaojun and Li Fan stood outside the barrier, gazing into the misty distance.
yǒng héng xiān lěi zhū bān shì wù quán dōu chǔ lǐ wán bì ， zài wú qiān guà 。
永恒仙垒诸般事物全都处理完毕，再无牵挂。
"Where should we go next?"
shāng shǎo jūn yǔ lǐ fán zhàn zài yǒng héng xiān lěi zhī wài ， kàn zhe máng máng bái wù 。
商少君与李凡站在永恒仙垒之外，看着茫茫白雾。
After taking on the task of saving Xuanhuang, Shaojun was still a bit lost as they prepared to depart.
「 wǒ men jiē xià lái ， qù wǎng hé chù ？」
「我们接下来，去往何处？」
However, with everything done, he couldn't afford to backtrack now.
mò míng qí miào jiē le gè 「 zhěng jiù xuán huáng jiè 」 de dàn zi ， zhēn yào chū fā le ， shāng shǎo jūn xīn zhōng hái shì yǒu xiē mí máng 。
莫名奇妙接了个「拯救玄黄界」的担子，真要出发了，商少君心中还是有些迷茫。
Shaojun glanced at Li Fan beside him. He was certain that if he changed his mind, Li Fan would definitely cut him down with a sword.
bù guò shì yǐ zhì cǐ ， yě yóu bù dé tā fǎn huǐ le 。
不过事已至此，也由不得他反悔了。
"The safety of Xuanhuang rests on my shoulders. This feeling..."
shāng shǎo jūn kàn le yǎn shēn biān de lǐ fán ， tā hěn què xìn ， rú guǒ tā zài cǐ shí chū ěr fǎn ěr ， duì fāng jué duì huì yī jiàn zhǎn guò lái 。
商少君看了眼身边的李凡，他很确信，如果他在此时出尔反尔，对方绝对会一剑斩过来。
"Is not bad," Shaojun thought to himself.
「 xuán huáng ān wēi ， jǐn xì yī shēn 。 zhè zhǒng gǎn jué ……」
「玄黄安危，尽系一身。这种感觉……」
Li Fan stretched out his hand, and a small sword no longer than his palm appeared in it. It seemed to be sensing something as it spun around.
「 hái bú cuò 。」 shāng shǎo jūn xīn zhōng àn zì sī cǔn 。
「还不错。」商少君心中暗自思忖。
Finally, the tip pointed at a direction and stopped.
lǐ fán què shì shēn chū shǒu ， yī bǐng bù guò shǒu zhǎng zhǎng de xiǎo jiàn ， shà shí chū xiàn zài tā zhǎng zhōng 。
李凡却是伸出手，一柄不过手掌长的小剑，霎时出现在他掌中。
Shaojun followed where Li Fan's finger was pointing.
sì hū shì zài gǎn yìng zhe shén me ， bù tíng xuán zhuǎn 。
似乎是在感应着什么，不停旋转。
"Existence leaves traces. That mysterious figure is powerful, but once he appears in Xuanhuang, he can't avoid getting entangled with reality. Pursuing him will give us more evidence," Li Fan said with intense gaze.
zuì zhōng ， jiàn jiān zhǐ xiàng yí gè fāng wèi ， tíng le xià lái 。
最终，剑尖指向一个方位，停了下来。
Shaojun agreed, nodding his head in approval.
shāng shǎo jūn shùn zhe xiǎo jiàn suǒ zhǐ de fāng xiàng wàng qù 。
商少君顺着小剑所指的方向望去。
He didn’t know that the direction Li Fan's small sword was pointing at wasn't tracking the mysterious figure but rather leading them to various areas of mystery he had explored before.
「 fán cún zài ， bì liú hén jì 。 nà dào shén mì shēn yǐng suī rán qiáng hèng wú pǐ ， dàn zhǐ yào xiàn shēn xuán huáng jiè ， jiù bù kě bì miǎn huì gēn xiàn shí chǎn shēng jiū gé 。 zhuī zhú tā ， wǒ men jiù néng zhǎo dào gèng duō de zhèng jù 。」 lǐ fán mù guāng zhuó zhuó 。
「凡存在，必留痕迹。那道神秘身影虽然强横无匹，但只要现身玄黄界，就不可避免会跟现实产生纠葛。追逐他，我们就能找到更多的证据。」李凡目光灼灼。
Of course, they would find ample evidence of Xuanhuang being transformed there.
shāng shǎo jūn jué de lǐ fán shuō de tǐng yǒu dào lǐ ， dāng jí diǎn tóu zàn tóng dào 。
商少君觉得李凡说的挺有道理，当即点头赞同道。
...
tā què bù zhī ， lǐ fán zhǎng zhōng xiǎo jiàn suǒ zhǐ de fāng wèi ， gēn běn bú shì shén me zhuī zōng shén mì shēn yǐng suǒ zài 。
他却不知，李凡掌中小剑所指的方位，根本不是什么追踪神秘身影所在。
Meanwhile, in the Lesser World of Great启, Elder Yin’s experimental base was almost complete.
ér shì zhǐ xiàng lǐ fán jì yì zhōng yí gè yòu yí gè céng jīng tàn míng de mí yù 。
而是指向李凡记忆中一个又一个曾经探明的迷域。
"When Mr. Bai said his last goodbye, he told me that with my Foundation Establishment Method, I might achieve [Primordial Golden Core], [Mortal Soul Core], and [Mind to Spirit]. You may refer to this concept for your derivation," Li Ping said to Elder Yin.
dāng rán ， shū tú tóng guī 。 tā men shì bì huì zài nà lǐ ， zhǎo dào xuán huáng jiè zhèng zài bèi rén gǎi zào de zhū duō zhèng jù 。
当然，殊途同归。他们势必会在那里，找到玄黄界正在被人改造的诸多证据。
Elder Yin had just performed a strange act before Li Ping. His body split in half, and the other self emerged from within, then swallowed his own flesh and bones.
……
……
The sounds of chewing echoed through the experimental base as Elder Yin’s face was covered with blood. But he remained calm, focused on his research.
zhèng dāng shèng tāi lǐ fán zhǐ yǐn zhe shāng shǎo jūn jiē mì xuán huáng jiè yǐn cáng zài bīng shān xià de zhēn xiàng de shí hòu ， dà qǐ xiǎo shì jiè zhōng ， yīn shàng rén de shí yàn jī dì yǐ jīng chū
正当圣胎李凡指引着商少君揭秘玄黄界隐藏在冰山下的真相的时候，大启小世界中，殷上人的实验基地已经初
Li Ping, despite having countless memories, felt a bit uncomfortable watching this.
bù dā jiàn wán bì le 。
步搭建完毕了。
It wasn’t about courage; it just went against human nature.
「 dāng nián wǒ zuì hòu jiàn bái xiān shēng yí miàn shí ， tā céng jīng duì wǒ shuō dào ， yǐ wǒ zhù jī fǎ hòu 、 huò kě wèi 【 hùn yuán jīn dān 】、【 ròu shēn yuán yīng 】、【 xīn niàn huà shén 】。 xiān shēng bù fáng cān zhào cǐ gài niàn jìn xíng tuī yǎn 。」 fēn shēn lǐ píng duì yīn shàng rén shuō dào 。
「当年我最后见白先生一面时，他曾经对我说道，以我筑基法后、或可为【混元金丹】、【肉身元婴】、【心念化神】。先生不妨参照此概念进行推衍。」分身李平对殷上人说道。
After thoroughly chewing, Elder Yin swallowed the other self completely. Li Ping noticed that Elder Yin's displayed realm had dropped from Foundation Establishment to Qi Refinement.
yīn shàng rén gāng gāng zài lǐ píng miàn qián shàng yǎn le yī cháng guǐ jué de xì mǎ 。
殷上人刚刚在李平面前上演了一场诡谲的戏码。
"Now, to derive the next method, I must follow the right path first," Elder Yin said.
shēn qū cóng zhōng liè kāi ， tǐ nèi de lìng wài yí gè zì jǐ 、 cóng zhōng zhēng zhá pá chū 。
身躯从中裂开，体内的另外一个自己、从中挣扎爬出。
"My Foundation Establishment Method only succeeded half. So, I need to destroy my foundation and start anew."
ér hòu zhuǎn guò tóu lái ， jiāng zì jǐ de xuè ròu qū qiào ， gěi shēng shēng tūn xià 。
而后转过头来，将自己的血肉躯壳，给生生吞下。
He looked up at the sky: "It might be troublesome, but leave it to me."
xuè ròu yǔ gǔ gé zài zuǐ lǐ jǔ jué de shēng yīn huí dàng zài shì yàn jī dì lǐ ， yīn shàng rén mǎn liǎn xuè wū 。
血肉与骨骼在嘴里咀嚼的声音回荡在试验基地里，殷上人满脸血污。
As Elder Yin spoke, Li Ping sensed something descending into Sacred Capital City.
dàn miàn róng què shì píng jìng wú bǐ ， chī zhe zì jǐ de yīn shàng rén yǎn shén zhōng mǎn shì zhuān zhù 。
但面容却是平静无比，吃着自己的殷上人眼神中满是专注。
Practicing the Imperial Heaven Qi Classic, he was now representing the Great启 Dynasty alone. Any external intrusion couldn’t escape his perception.
sì hū bú shì zài jìn shí ， ér shì zài zuò zhe shén me yán jiū 。
似乎不是在进食，而是在做着什么研究。
Like cold worms crawling on his skin, probing and then extending their sharp points to try to penetrate the Lesser World of Great启.
ráo shì lǐ píng yǒu wú shù wǎng xī jì yì ， cǐ kè kàn zhe yīn shàng rén ， xīn zhōng yě bù yóu wēi wēi fā máo 。
饶是李平有无数往昔记忆，此刻看着殷上人，心中也不由微微发毛。
"Eh? Your place seems self-contained; perhaps their retaliation will be weaker than expected," Elder Yin said.
wú guān yú dǎn liàng ， shí zài shì gēn rén lèi de běn xìng xiāng bèi 。
无关于胆量，实在是跟人类的本性相悖。
Li Ping knew that "their" referred to remnants from the old world. Perhaps it was Elder Yin's aggressive change in state attracting his kind’s attention.
xì jiáo màn yàn ， zhōng yú jiāng lìng wài de zì jǐ gěi wán quán chī rù dù zhōng 。
细嚼慢咽，终于将另外的自己给完全吃入肚中。
Dripping rain sounds filled the air, but no drops fell.
lǐ píng fā xiàn yīn shàng rén wài zài xiǎn lù de jìng jiè ， yě yóu zhù jī qī diē luò zhì le liàn qì qī 。
李平发现殷上人外在显露的境界，也由筑基期跌落至了炼气期。
A thick layer of dark clouds suddenly appeared above Li Fan's head, covering the experimental base.
zhè shí hòu ， yīn shàng rén cái jiāng zhàn mǎn le xuè xīng de shǒu zài zì jǐ yī fú shàng cā le cā ， jiě shì dào ：「 xiǎng yào tuī yǎn chū jiē xià lái de fǎ mén ， jiù bì xū yào xiān zǒu zài zhèng què de dào lù shàng 。」
这时候，殷上人才将占满了血腥的手在自己衣服上擦了擦，解释道：「想要推衍出接下来的法门，就必须要先走在正确的道路上。」
The hard玄武stone ground turned muddy under the dripping sound.
「 wǒ de yǐ wǒ zhù jī fǎ ， zhǐ chéng gōng le yí bàn 。 suǒ yǐ yào miè gēn jī 、 chóng xiū xíng 。」
「我的以我筑基法，只成功了一半。所以要灭根基、重修行。」
Pale arms shot out from the ground.
tā tái tóu kàn le yǎn tiān kōng ：「 kě néng huì yǒu xiē má fán ， bù guò jiāo gěi wǒ biàn shì 。」
他抬头看了眼天空：「可能会有些麻烦，不过交给我便是。」
Li Ping frowned and tried to float away. But in this twisted space, he lost his ability to fly.
suí zhe yīn shàng rén zhè jù huà shuō chū ， lǐ píng yě chà nà gǎn jué dào ， sì hū yǒu shén me jiàng lín dào shèng jīng chéng zhī zhōng 。
随着殷上人这句话说出，李平也刹那感觉到，似乎有什么降临到圣京城之中。
Fortunately, their target wasn't him. Those arms were just ephemeral shadows for him.
xiū xíng tiān dì qì diǎn ， róng liàn zhěng gè wáng cháo qì yùn yú yī tǐ 。
修行天帝气典，熔炼整个王朝气运于一体。
Countless arms crawled on the ground, swarming towards Elder Yin.
lǐ píng cǐ kè yī rén jiù dài biǎo zhe dà qǐ huáng cháo 。
李平此刻一人就代表着大启皇朝。
Elder Yin revealed a sinister smile as he pulled out the closest arm and bit into it.
"Is this a bit of a waste?"
Shaojun, addressing Yan Huan, whispered to Li Fan.
Afterward, Shaojun noticed the faint smile on Li Fan's face and felt a bit uneasy. He cleared his throat lightly, trying to mask his discomfort.
"The name 'Immortal Heart Spell' is too conspicuous. Young Master could change it to something more ordinary before passing it down," Li Fan reminded him.
