第1329章 真仙幽复苏

miàn duì lǐ fán de jiàn yì ， mò rú bīn méi yǒu mǎ shàng gěi chū huí dá 。 ér shì zài chén mò zhōng sī cǔn le liáng jiǔ 。

面对李凡的建议，墨儒斌没有马上给出回答。而是在沉默中思忖了良久。

Facing the situation, the two decided to first investigate the whereabouts of the Celestial Emperor within the Dark Sea.

níng shì lǐ fán ， shì xiàn luò zài tā nà bān bái de cháng fà zhī shàng 。 huò xǔ shì yóu yú lǐ fán yán cí chén kěn 、 ér qiě dí què mìng bù jiǔ yǐ de yuán yīn ， zuì zhōng mò rú bīn hái shì diǎn tóu dā yìng le ：「 bìng wú bù kě 。」

凝视李凡，视线落在他那斑白的长发之上。或许是由于李凡言辞陈恳、而且的确命不久矣的原因，最终墨儒斌还是点头答应了：「并无不可。」

The central core of the Spirit Gathering and Ascension Array suddenly lit up, emitting undetectable ripples that quickly spread throughout the Dark Sea. After a long while, these ripples returned to Li Fan.

lǐ fán xīn xǐ diǎn tóu ：「 shàn ！ yǒu le dào xiōng xiāng zhù ， dìng néng shì bàn gōng bèi ！」

李凡欣喜点头：「善！有了道兄相助，定能事半功倍！」

Mò Ruíbīn's expression remained unchanged as he waited for all the search results. It was evident that the Celestial Emperor did not exist within this Dark Sea.

「 jì rú cǐ ， nà wǒ men xiān fǎn huí xuán huáng jiè ！」

「既如此，那我们先返回玄黄界！」

Seeing Mò Ruíbīn frown deeply again, Li Fan comforted him, "We should start our journey to the next location."

mù jiàn xū yǐng chū qiào ， lǐ fán shēn shǒu yāo qǐng mò rú bīn rù nèi 。

木剑虚影出鞘，李凡伸手邀请墨儒斌入内。

Mò Ruíbīn shook his head and said, "I don't hope for such an easy find of Brother Xuanyuan either. I just feel that there's something off about this Dark Sea."

qǐ chū mò rú bīn hái bù yǐ wéi yì ， dàn dāng tā qīn shēn jìn rù dào xū yǐng fàn wéi nèi 、 ér hòu gǎn shòu zhe qí bù kě sī yì de sù dù hòu ， shén qíng zhōng jiū wēi biàn 。

起初墨儒斌还不以为意，但当他亲身进入到虚影范围内、而后感受着其不可思议的速度后，神情终究微变。

Li Fan asked curiously, "What do you mean by that?"

kàn xiàng lǐ fán de yǎn guāng yòu yǒu bù tóng 。

看向李凡的眼光又有不同。

Mò Ruíbīn continued in a solemn tone, "The Dark Sea was created on the remains of True Immortals. Although these True Immortals have completely perished, they were once True Immortals and their abilities far exceed our mundane cultivators' imagination."

ér zuì hòu ， qīn yǎn mù dǔ xū yǐng bì yòu xià 、 liǎng rén jìng néng wú shì xiān xū xī lì ， shùn lì jiàng lín xuán huáng jiè ， mò rú bīn zhōng yú zài rěn bú zhù ， shuō dào ：「 kàn lái ， dào yǒu yě jué duì shì dāng shì zuì dǐng jiān de rén wù 。」

而最后，亲眼目睹虚影庇佑下、两人竟能无视仙墟吸力，顺利降临玄黄界，墨儒斌终于再忍不住，说道：「看来，道友也绝对是当世最顶尖的人物。」

"Take for example the spontaneous emergence of [Survival Intent] upon sensing living beings entering. The accumulated dark energy in this Dark Sea seems to have changed subtly compared to before," Mò Ruíbīn's expression was serious.

lǐ fán kǔ xiào yáo tóu ：「 suī kě guān jué yī shì ， què bù néng héng yā wàn gǔ 。 kuàng qiě zòng yǒu zhū bān fǎ shù ， shòu mìng hái bú shì zhōng dǐ jǐn shí ？ cǐ shén tōng bù jí tiān shù bà le 。」

李凡苦笑摇头：「虽可冠绝一世，却不能横压万古。况且纵有诸般法术，寿命还不是终抵尽时？此神通不及天数罢了。」

Following Mò Ruíbīn's gaze, Li Fan also looked into the endless darkness.

mò rú bīn zhāng zhāng zuǐ ， què méi yǒu zài shuō huà 。

墨儒斌张张嘴，却没有再说话。

Mò Ruíbīn continued solemnly, "With the True Immortals' demise, the dark energy is now without a master. However, this force originally relied on the remains of True Immortals to exist, and thus remained silent. But it was somehow stirred by a trace of a True Immortal's survival intent..."

cǐ kè èr rén yǐ jīng jiàng lín xuán huáng jiè ， mò rú bīn shén niàn qiāo wú shēng xī sǎo guò shì jiè ， dāng kàn dào bù zhī dào kuò zhāng le duō shǎo bèi de zhōu yù 、 yǐ jí tiān dì jiān nà gāo sǒng de bái wù bì zhàng de zhī hòu ， jí biàn shì zhè wèi jiàn duō shí guǎng de xuán tiān jiào fǎ wáng ， yǎn zhōng yě bù yóu shǎn guò yī sī cuò è 。

此刻二人已经降临玄黄界，墨儒斌神念悄无声息扫过世界，当看到不知道扩张了多少倍的州域、以及天地间那高耸的白雾壁障的之后，即便是这位见多识广的玄天教法王，眼中也不由闪过一丝错愕。

"Perhaps under the influence of this survival intent, the dark energy has changed accordingly."

liáng jiǔ zhī hòu ， tā yǒu xiē gǎn kǎi dào ：「 rú guǒ bú shì dí què gǎn yìng dào le fú dù xīng kōng dà zhèn cán cún de hén jì ， wǒ zěn me yě wú fǎ jiāng yǎn qián zhè hóng dà shì jiè gēn shàng gǔ shí hòu xuán huáng jiè de lián xì qǐ lái 。」

良久之后，他有些感慨到：「如果不是的确感应到了浮渡星空大阵残存的痕迹，我怎么也无法将眼前这宏大世界跟上古时候玄黄界的联系起来。」

Li Fan pretended to be greatly shocked: "The power of a True Immortal is truly terrifying? What exactly does your mention of changes in the dark energy refer to?"

「 bù guò wàn nián shí guāng ， shì jiè zhī biàn 、 jìng zhǐ yú cǐ ！」

「不过万年时光，世界之变、竟止于此！」

Mò Ruíbīn replied, "It's still unclear now. But one thing can be confirmed - it will inevitably evolve towards a trend favorable for the revival of True Immortals. Even if they cannot ultimately revive, this trend will definitely exist."

lǐ fán diǎn tóu dào ：「 shì zhì yú jiāng fù zhī jì ， wàn wù zhī biàn 、 qí sù bǎi qiān bèi yú cháng 。 wǒ guān qí biàn ， qí jí ruò léi ， qí xùn rú guāng 。 cǐ nǎi tiān dào zì jiù yě ……」

李凡点头道：「世至于将覆之际，万物之变、其速百千倍于常。我观其变，其疾若雷，其迅如光。此乃天道自救也……」

"Remember those corpses you saw on our way? Their life essence was completely drained and turned into nourishment for the revival of True Immortals... Perhaps when this Dark Sea senses living beings useful for the revival of True Immortals, it might launch similar attacks as well."

lǐ fán shuō zhe ， suí shǒu dǎ chū yī dào huàn jìng 。

李凡说着，随手打出一道幻境。

"But fortunately, after being transformed by the Spirit Gathering and Ascension Array, the dark energy's influence from the remains of True Immortals is much less significant than that of a True Immortal. The situation isn't as bad as I imagined."

guāng tuán zhī nèi ， xuán huáng jiè zhōng tiān fān dì fù 、 yīn yáng shī xù ； xīng chén huì míng 、 shān chuān zhèn lì ； cǎo mù jiāo kū 、 niǎo shòu bēn cuàn 。 yǎn rán yī fù mò shì jiàng lín zhī xiàng 。

光团之内，玄黄界中天翻地覆、阴阳失序；星辰晦暝、山川震栗；草木焦枯、鸟兽奔窜。俨然一副末世降临之象。

Li Fan agreed wholeheartedly: "The energy stored in this Dark Sea is already immense. If they were to go berserk, it might instantly devour the Xuan Huang Realm and serve as nourishment for the revival of True Immortals..."

shēng sǐ cún wáng guān tóu ， xuán huáng jiè guǒ yǒu zhǒng zhǒng yīng jī biàn huà dàn shēng 。 bīng fēng rè jì 、 suì yuè liú zhuǎn 、 tiān zhū dì miè ……

生死存亡关头，玄黄界果有种种应激变化诞生。冰封热寂、岁月流转、天诛地灭……

Mò Ruíbīn nodded in agreement, looking deeply at the Dark Sea. "If not controlled, such a day might indeed come."

mò rú bīn yī shí jiān jìng kàn lèng le shén 。

墨儒斌一时间竟看愣了神。

Li Fan curiously asked, "What if I say, using the entire Xuan Huang Realm as nourishment, could it truly bring back the remains of True Immortals?"

guān jiàn shí kè ， lǐ fán qīng ké yī shēng ， jiāng huàn jǐng guāng tuán shōu qǐ 。

关键时刻，李凡轻咳一声，将幻景光团收起。

Mò Ruíbīn turned to look at Li Fan and remained silent for a long time. His eyes showed no malice; only pure curiosity about the unknown.

mò rú bīn xīn zhōng dùn shí yǒng xiàn chū chàng rán ruò shī zhī gǎn 。

墨儒斌心中顿时涌现出怅然若失之感。

After much contemplation, Mò Ruíbīn said, "From an energy perspective, the current Xuan Huang Realm should be sufficient. After all, it's stitched together from so many realms, even if they are remnants of worlds destroyed..."

tā yǐn yǐn gǎn jué dào ， gāng gāng nà guāng tuán jǐng xiàng zhōng 、 sì hū dàng zhēn àn cáng zhe tiān dì yǎn biàn zhī lǐ 。 duì yú rèn hé xiū xiān zhě ér yán ， dōu shì yī bǐ nán yǐ xiǎng xiàng de cái fù 。 bù guò lǐ fán zhǎn shì de shí jiān tài duǎn ， mò rú bīn hái bù néng cān wù xǔ duō 。

他隐隐感觉到，刚刚那光团景象中、似乎当真暗藏着天地衍变之理。对于任何修仙者而言，都是一笔难以想象的财富。不过李凡展示的时间太短，墨儒斌还不能参悟许多。

"Though the life essence of these worlds is destroyed, their sources still exist."

ér shēn wèi xuán tiān jiào fǎ wáng 、 xuán huáng jiè shàng gǔ sū xǐng qián bèi de zūn yán ， yě shǐ de mò rú bīn méi yǒu zhí jiē hòu zhe liǎn ， ràng lǐ fán zài cì zhǎn shì yī biàn 。

而身为玄天教法王、玄黄界上古苏醒前辈的尊严，也使得墨儒斌没有直接厚着脸，让李凡再次展示一遍。

"But even if revived, it would just be a hollow shell, a mere zombie without true consciousness..."

「 huò xǔ děng chéng gōng zhǎo dào xuān yuán dà gē ， biàn dé shú luò le zhī hòu ……」 mò rú bīn bù yóu rú cǐ xiǎng dào 。

「或许等成功找到轩辕大哥，变得熟络了之后……」墨儒斌不由如此想道。

Li Fan slowly nodded, "A True Immortal's body is also an extremely formidable existence. If we could seize its soul, wouldn't that allow us to achieve True Immortality in this era?"

「 dāng rán ， xuán huáng jiè zhī suǒ yǐ biàn chéng rú jīn zhè mú yàng ， chú le tiān dào běn shēn zhī biàn wài 、 hái yǒu nà chuán fǎ tiān zūn àn zhōng chū shǒu de yuán gù 。」 lǐ fán yòu shí huà shí shuō dào 。

「当然，玄黄界之所以变成如今这模样，除了天道本身之变外、还有那传法天尊暗中出手的缘故。」李凡又实话实说道。

Mò Ruíbīn smiled and didn't take Li Fan's wild thoughts seriously.

「 chuán fǎ tiān zūn ， hěn yǒu kě néng shì céng jīng tiān fǎ jiè de zūn zhě 。 tiān fǎ jiè fù miè ， chuán fǎ tiān zūn xiǎng yào jiè zhù xīng hǎi zhōng wéi yī shàng cún de xuán huáng jiè 、 jiè shī huán hún ……」

「传法天尊，很有可能是曾经天法界的尊者。天法界覆灭，传法天尊想要借助星海中唯一尚存的玄黄界、借尸还魂……」

After failing to find anything in the Dark Sea, they planned to go to their next destination: The Eye of the Kun Beast.

「 chuán fǎ cǐ rén ， xīng hǎi wù dào shù qiān nián ， shí lì shēn bù kě cè 、 huò xǔ yǐ dá fán zhī jí xiàn 。 wǒ ， bú shì tā de duì shǒu ！」

「传法此人，星海悟道数千年，实力深不可测、或许已达凡之极限。我，不是他的对手！」

"The Eye of the Kun Beast can not only detect the Star Sea but also monitor the Xuan Huang. It is independent from the Xuan Huang Realm and connects through a mysterious link. If the Kun Beast still exists, we could directly reach it. However, as the Kun Beast has died in battle, reaching there will require effort," Mò Ruíbīn explained.

「 wǒ men xíng shì ， yào xiǎo xīn dī fáng cǐ rén 。 rèn hé duì tā fù huó tiān fǎ jiè kě néng chǎn shēng wēi xié de cún zài ， chuán fǎ tiān zūn tā dōu jué bú huì fàng guò 。」 lǐ fán tàn xī yī shēng ， hǎo xīn jiàn yì dào 。

「我们行事，要小心提防此人。任何对他复活天法界可能产生威胁的存在，传法天尊他都绝不会放过。」李凡叹息一声，好心建议道。

They then arrived at Jiushan Province under Li Fan's guidance.

「 zhè chuán fǎ qí shí wéi rén hái bú cuò 。 zhǐ kě xī zhù dìng zhàn zài le xuán huáng jiè de duì lì miàn shàng 。」 mò rú bīn guān chá zhe shēn rù xuán huáng jiè shì jiè zhī nèi de 、 yī xiē gé gé bù rù de qí tā shì jiè cán piàn ， xīn zhōng yǐ rán duì lǐ fán de huà xìn le jǐ fēn 。

「这传法其实为人还不错。只可惜注定站在了玄黄界的对立面上。」墨儒斌观察着深入玄黄界世界之内的、一些格格不入的其他世界残片，心中已然对李凡的话信了几分。

Looking up at the nine continuous mountain ranges towering over them, a hint of sadness flashed across Mò Ruíbīn's eyes.

「 kě xī le ……」 shí jì shàng ， mò rú bīn duì zhè wèi míng yì shàng fù miè xiān dào shí zōng de qiáng zhě ， hái shì yǒu jǐ fēn hǎo gǎn de 。

「可惜了……」实际上，墨儒斌对这位名义上覆灭仙道十宗的强者，还是有几分好感的。

Following their previous journey, they found theimmortal jade flagstaff (Spirit Jade Flag) in the underground ruins.

bù guò zài kàn dào rú jīn xuán huáng jiè bèi zhī jiě zhòng sù de chǎng miàn ， yǐ jí zài lǐ fán de qīng shēng sù shuō zhī xià 。 nà běn jiù shí fēn wēi ruò de hǎo gǎn

不过在看到如今玄黄界被肢解重塑的场面，以及在李凡的轻声诉说之下。那本就十分微弱的好感

"This is..."

， shà shí jiù xiāo shī wú zōng 。

，霎时就消失无踪。

"Is it a divine artifact?"

「 fàng xīn ， wǒ men dī diào xíng shì 。 zài méi yǒu zhǎo dào xuān yuán dà gē zhī qián ， shì bú huì gēn zhè wèi chuán fǎ tiān zūn qǐ chōng tū de 。」 mò rú bīn yǎn shén zài tiān dì jiān bù duàn sǎo guò ， sì hū shì zài gǎn yìng zhe shén me hén jì 。

「放心，我们低调行事。在没有找到轩辕大哥之前，是不会跟这位传法天尊起冲突的。」墨儒斌眼神在天地间不断扫过，似乎是在感应着什么痕迹。

Li Fan pretended to be greatly surprised.

bàn shǎng zhī hòu ， tā zhòu méi dào ：「 kàn lái ， fú dù dà zhèn sǔn huài de guǒ rán shí fēn yán zhòng 。 jǐn jǐn zhǐ néng gǎn yìng dào dàn dàn de cán cún qì xī ， xiǎng yào cāo zòng què shì bù xíng le 。」

半晌之后，他皱眉道：「看来，浮渡大阵损坏的果然十分严重。仅仅只能感应到淡淡的残存气息，想要操纵却是不行了。」

Mò Ruíbīn was dismissive: "With all the divine energy expended, there’s only an empty shell of a divine artifact."

「 bàn shì yīn wèi cāng hǎi sāng tián ， bàn shì yīn wèi dāng nián xiān dào shí zōng cāo zòng fú dù dà zhèn bǔ huò qí tā xiū xiān jiè shí 、 jiē lián fā shēng dà zhàn 。 dà zhèn rì yì shòu sǔn ， shí zōng xiū shì què yòu méi yǒu néng lì jìn xíng xiū bǔ 。 zuì zhōng cái dǎo zhì dà zhèn chè dǐ sǔn huài ……」 lǐ fán huǎn huǎn shuō dào 。

「半是因为沧海桑田，半是因为当年仙道十宗操纵浮渡大阵捕获其他修仙界时、接连发生大战。大阵日益受损，十宗修士却又没有能力进行修补。最终才导致大阵彻底损坏……」李凡缓缓说道。

"But using this to travel to the Eye of the Kun Beast isn't difficult."

「 zuì qǐ mǎ ， gēn jù wǒ de diào chá xiǎn shì ， yīng gāi shì zhè yàng de 。」 kàn zhuó mò rú bīn yǎn zhōng yī shǎn ér guò de líng lì guāng máng ， lǐ fán sǒng jiān 、 shí fēn tǎn chéng de shuō dào 。

「最起码，根据我的调查显示，应该是这样的。」看着墨儒斌眼中一闪而过的凌厉光芒，李凡耸肩、十分坦诚的说道。

Mò Ruíbīn used the Spirit Jade Flag as the central core and began setting up the array.

「 shí zōng nà xiē fèi wù ， zěn me kě néng huì cāo zòng fú dù dà zhèn ？！ chú fēi ……」 mò rú bīn shēn shàng ， hū de sàn fà chū jù liè bō dòng de wēi xiǎn qì xī 。

「十宗那些废物，怎么可能会操纵浮渡大阵？！除非……」墨儒斌身上，忽的散发出剧烈波动的危险气息。

"In my search for the Celestial Emperor, I also encountered some fragments of divine artifacts. But all were like this Spirit Jade Flag—exhausted of their divine energy. Some even suffered immense disasters, disintegrating into pieces."

lǐ fán wēi wēi shǎn shēn ， fù hè dào ：「 dìng rán shì dāng nián pàn jiào de fǎ wáng jiāng cāo zòng fāng fǎ gào zhī le shí zōng 。」

李凡微微闪身，附和道：「定然是当年叛教的法王将操纵方法告之了十宗。」

"What kind of disaster did the Celestial Emperor witness in the Divine Realm that even the Divine Realm couldn't escape?" Li Fan asked as he reflected.

mò rú bīn méi tóu shēn shēn zhòu qǐ ， què bìng méi yǒu jiē huà 。

墨儒斌眉头深深皱起，却并没有接话。

Mò Ruíbīn paused his actions and seemed to be lost in thought.
