“ chū dài xuán huáng dà tiān zūn bìng fēi shì xiān rén xià jiè ……”
“初代玄黄大天尊并非是仙人下界……”
"True, the speed of its spread is faster than expected," Li Fan thought as he observed the black aura. "And this black aura region's outer layer..."
“ ér shì xiān rén huà fán ？”
“而是仙人化凡？”
After observing for a while and comparing it with previous observations, Li Fan frowned slightly.
qǐng kè jiān ， lǐ fán xīn shén jù zhèn 。
顷刻间，李凡心神剧震。
He had seen the signs of the Destructive Void before multiple times, but they were extremely far away, only causing a sense of crisis when he witnessed the black aura.
xiān rén xià jiè ， xiān rén huà fán 。 cǐ èr zhě kàn shàng qù sì hū chà bu duō ， shí zé yǒu zhe běn zhì dì qū bié 。
仙人下界，仙人化凡。此二者看上去似乎差不多，实则有着本质的区别。
Now, even without directly observing the endless black aura, Li Fan still felt an inexplicable sense of dread. This feeling was like a tide that surged in his heart.
xiān rén xià jiè ， yī jiù hái shì zhēn xiān 。 bù guò lì liàng bèi xià jiè suǒ néng chéng shòu jí xiàn suǒ shù fù ér yǐ 。
仙人下界，依旧还是真仙。不过力量被下界所能承受极限所束缚而已。
The sense of crisis persisted, and even the Xuan Huang Immortal Heart Spell could not dispel it. The longer he stayed, the stronger this feeling became.
ér yí dàn huà fán ， zé ……
而一旦化凡，则……
Suppressing his instinct to flee, Li Fan carefully savored this specific sensation.
xiān ， bù zài shì xiān ！
仙，不再是仙！
"It feels as if a dangerous wall is collapsing and a grand building is about to fall; I am in danger beneath that wall and building..."
chéng wéi zhēn xiān ， nǎi shì suǒ yǒu fán rén xiū shì mèng mèi yǐ qiú de mù biāo 。 rán ér ， zài shàng gǔ zhī shí de xuán huáng jiè ， jìng rán huì yǒu zhè yàng yī wèi zhēn xiān ， xuǎn zé zì gān duò luò 、 biǎn zhé fán chén 。
成为真仙，乃是所有凡人修士梦寐以求的目标。然而，在上古之时的玄黄界，竟然会有这样一位真仙，选择自甘堕落、贬谪凡尘。
Under intense crisis, Li Fan did not advance but retreated. The wooden sword shadow almost reached the edge of the expanding black aura sea.
“ dào yān zhī jié ！” lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng chà nà shǎn guò zhè ge míng zì 。
“道湮之劫！”李凡脑海中刹那闪过这个名字。
"Begin," Li Fan said indifferently to Liu Luhun and others within the wooden sword shadow.
chú le wèi le duǒ bì nà zài hòu lái pò miè xiān jiè de kě bù zāi huò ， lǐ fán xiǎng bú dào qí tā yǒu bì yào zhè me zuò de yuán yīn 。
除了为了躲避那在后来破灭仙界的可怖灾祸，李凡想不到其他有必要这么做的原因。
The Shao Yao Sect members knew nothing about their current situation as they watched the floating light ball in front, their expressions dazed.
“ chū dài xuán huáng dà tiān zūn huà fán zhī jì ， jù lí xiān jiè dà jié ， yīng gāi hái yǒu xiāng dāng zhǎng yī duàn shí jiān 。”
“初代玄黄大天尊化凡之际，距离仙界大劫，应该还有相当长一段时间。”
With golden chains缠绕 around them, a seven-colored chess piece, a white chess piece, and six gray chess pieces were clearly visible.
“ rú cǐ yǒu yuǎn jiàn ， rú cǐ yǒu pò lì ！”
“如此有远见，如此有魄力！”
"This is the old ancestor's left-over Immortal World fragments!" The Shao Yao Sect members, excited about uncovering the ancient Immortal World secrets left by Sun Piapo, began to fuse the Immortal World fragments under Li Fan's instructions.
“ zhè shì zhēn zhèng de zhēn xiān jiàng fán chén ！”
“这是真正的真仙降凡尘！”
Led by Liu Luhun's [Great Dao Longevity Scripture], they first fused the six gray chess pieces that each had been sealed separately.
lǐ fán bù yóu xīn zhōng jīng tàn 。
李凡不由心中惊叹。
The process was surprisingly smooth. Just like when Li Fan controlled the fusion before, the six gray chess pieces merged into a larger seven-colored one.
dàn lǐ fán hū de zhuǎn niàn yòu xiǎng dào ：“ bù guò ， què bù néng pái chú tā shì bèi pò wèi zhī 。 bì jìng ， cóng zhī qián de zhēn xiān jì yì zhōng kě yǐ dé zhī ， xiān jiè yě shì děng jí sēn yán de 。”
但李凡忽的转念又想道：“不过，却不能排除他是被迫为之。毕竟，从之前的真仙记忆中可以得知，仙界也是等级森严的。”
Now, only two six-in-one seven-colored chess pieces and the most crucial white chess piece remained. The white chess piece seemed to be activated by the other two fused chess pieces, emitting continuous colorful light around its edges.
“ ruò jǐn jǐn shì wèi le zì jǐ duǒ bì dào yān zhī jié ， lǐ lùn shàng lái jiǎng 、 tā jué bú huì zài dān rèn xuán huáng tiān zūn yī zhí 。”
“若仅仅是为了自己躲避道湮之劫，理论上来讲、他绝不会再担任玄黄天尊一职。”
Although smaller than the seven-colored chess piece, it was still like the core of a chess piece.
“ hěn xiǎn rán ， chū dài de jiàng lín ， shì wèi le pèi hé xiān jiè dá chéng mǒu zhǒng jì huà 。”
“很显然，初代的降临，是为了配合仙界达成某种计划。”
The golden chains binding it were wobbling, ready to break at any moment.
“ ér xuán huáng jiè ， jiù shì qí zhōng de shì yàn chǎng zhī yī 。”
“而玄黄界，就是其中的试验场之一。”
Li Fan retreated and released his seal. The Shao Yao Sect members' eyes filled with fervor as they manipulated the two seven-colored chess pieces to protect the white one.
lián xiǎng dào zhī qián jiàn dào de xiān zhèn zhōng de bù dìng huán yǐ jí jiǔ xīng hóng zhū ， yǐ jí bèi jiān shì zhě suǒ zhǎng kòng de wú shù bīng fēng shī tǐ 。
联想到之前见到的仙阵中的不定环以及九星红珠，以及被监视者所掌控的无数冰封尸体。
Suddenly, the light circle around the white chess piece expanded outward in an instant, engulfing both seven-colored chess pieces.
lǐ fán yǐn yǐn jiāng yī qiè quán dōu chuàn lián qǐ lái 。
李凡隐隐将一切全都串联起来。
Only one chess piece remained on the field.
“ shèn zhì kě néng ， xiān jiè chuàng jiàn xuán huáng zhè yī chù shì yàn tián de mù dì ， bù jǐn jǐn shì wèi le bì nàn 。”
“甚至可能，仙界创建玄黄这一处试验田的目的，不仅仅是为了避难。”
Buzz...
“ hái shì tú tàn suǒ zhǎo dào jiě jué dào yān zhī jié de fāng fǎ 。”
“还试图探索找到解决道湮之劫的方法。”
A faint rumbling sound began from this new chess piece. Li Fan carefully observed the newly formed chess piece through the numerous Immortal World arrays.
“ bù guò cóng xiàn zài de zuì zhōng jié guǒ lái kàn ， tā men shī bài le 。”
“不过从现在的最终结果来看，他们失败了。”
Something strange was happening; although all the chess pieces had been absorbed, the imagined Immortal World did not directly manifest.
“ dào yān zhī jié ， yǐ bǐ xiǎng xiàng zhōng hái yào kuài de sù dù zài xiān jiè sì nüè 、 màn yán 。 wú shù zhēn xiān yǔn luò qí jiān 。”
“道湮之劫，以比想象中还要快的速度在仙界肆虐、蔓延。无数真仙陨落其间。”
However, Li Fan was certain that the fusion was successful because he felt the weight of the Immortal World area nearby increasing. The wooden sword shadow and the Immortal World arrays were both in danger of breaking apart under its influence.
“ ér xià jiè xuán huáng ， què shǐ zhōng ān rán wú yàng 。 zhè jiù shǐ de yǒu xiē xiān rén duì kàng zāi huò de yì zhì zāo shòu dòng yáo 。”
“而下界玄黄，却始终安然无恙。这就使得有些仙人对抗灾祸的意志遭受动摇。”
Just as Li Fan planned to infuse more power to maintain it until the true Immortal World appeared, a peculiar protective force emerged from the last white chess piece.
“ yú shì jiù yǒu le hòu lái de xiān yù suì piàn jì huà ……”
“于是就有了后来的仙域碎片计划……”
It covered the wooden sword shadow and the Immortal World arrays. As if entering another layer of space, the pressure from the Immortal World vanished naturally.
mī zhuó yǎn sī suǒ le fān ， gèng dà de yí wèn suí zhī chū xiàn zài lǐ fán xīn zhōng 。
眯着眼思索了番，更大的疑问随之出现在李凡心中。
Li Fan remained outside the Immortal World's range.
“ nà wèi chū dài xuán huáng dà tiān zūn ， zhēn de sǐ le me ？”
“那位初代玄黄大天尊，真的死了么？”
Using the wooden sword shadow as his eyes, he peered into the scene within the Immortal World.
zhēn xiān yí tuì ， yì zhí liú chuán 、 bèi lì dài xuán huáng tiān zūn suǒ zhǎng kòng 。
真仙遗蜕，一直流传、被历代玄黄天尊所掌控。
Strictly speaking, the wooden sword shadow had not truly entered the Immortal World; it was just that the Immortal World provided a protective support for them.
nà me chū dài běn rén ne ？
那么初代本人呢？
The Shao Yao Sect members and others, who were still in shock, also received similar treatment.
fán sú yǒu bié ， chū dài jì rán néng liú xià xuè mài ， yīng gāi yǐ jīng chè dǐ huà zuò le fán tāi 。
凡俗有别，初代既然能留下血脉，应该已经彻底化作了凡胎。
It seemed as if a folded paper ball was unfolding. The light from the chess piece representing the Immortal World grew brighter, even pushing back the approaching black aura.
zhè yàng de rén wù ， nán bù chéng yě gēn wú shù fán rén yī yàng ， yīn wèi shòu yuán jiāng jǐn 、 jiù xiāo shī zài le lì shǐ cháng hé zhī zhōng ？
这样的人物，难不成也跟无数凡人一样，因为寿元将尽、就消失在了历史长河之中？
Li Fan retreated again to avoid being illuminated by this light.
hái shì huàn le gè shēn fèn 、 yǐn xìng mái míng ， zài àn zhōng mò mò guān chá zhe yī qiè ？
还是换了个身份、隐姓埋名，在暗中默默观察着一切？
The light from the Immortal World did not extend like ordinary light in the darkest sea; it only expanded until it stopped at a certain area, resembling a large light ball floating on the edge of the black aura sea.
“ xiàn zài kàn lái ， xuán huáng jiè gēn xiān jiè de mì qiè lián xì ， jué duì gēn zhè wèi chū dài tiān zūn tuō bù liǎo gān xì 。 bèi jiàng shì biǎn zhé de zhēn xiān ， zuò wéi xiān fán gōu tōng de qiáo liáng ， àn zhōng jiān chá zhe xuán huáng jiè zhōng fā shēng de yī qiè 。”
“现在看来，玄黄界跟仙界的密切联系，绝对跟这位初代天尊脱不了干系。被降势贬谪的真仙，作为仙凡沟通的桥梁，暗中监察着玄黄界中发生的一切。”
This white light was too dazzling, even blocking Li Fan's perception of his wooden sword shadow.
“ ér zhè wèi zhēn xiān tóng yàng yě shòu dào xiān jiè de jié zhì ， huò xǔ xīn shēng bù mǎn ， cóng ér jiǎ sǐ tuō shēn 。”
“而这位真仙同样也受到仙界的节制，或许心生不满，从而假死脱身。”
Li Fan vaguely saw countless blurry images within this light.
“ dì èr rèn xuán huáng tiān zūn ， jiù bù zài shì xiān rén huà fán ， ér shì cóng xuán huáng jiè zhōng tiāo xuǎn shēng líng dān rèn ……”
“第二任玄黄天尊，就不再是仙人化凡，而是从玄黄界中挑选生灵担任……”
They seemed like people but were not. They seemed like scenery but were not.
“ yào me ， shì xiān rén huà fán suǒ xū de dài jià tài dà 、 wú fǎ chí xù 。 yào me jiù shì jí biàn zài xiān jiè ， xuán huáng jiè jì huà yě shì shǔ yú jué mì ， bìng méi yǒu tài duō de zhēn xiān néng gòu cān yù qí zhōng 。 shí zài zhǎo bú dào huà fán de duì xiàng le 。”
“要么，是仙人化凡所需的代价太大、无法持续。要么就是即便在仙界，玄黄界计划也是属于绝密，并没有太多的真仙能够参与其中。实在找不到化凡的对象了。”
Just as Li Fan was looking forward to seeing the Immortal World appear, the black aura sea that had been pushed back by the Immortal World's light suddenly began to stir.
“ yì huò zhě ， èr zhě jiān yǒu 。”
“亦或者，二者兼有。”
The black waves surged, expanding even faster.
huí xiǎng qǐ zhī qián zài yōu zú xuè mài zhōng jiàn dào de nà méi xuán ào zì fú ， lǐ fán ruò yǒu suǒ sī ：“ xiān rén xiǎng yào huà fán ， jué bù jǐn jǐn zhǐ shì jiàng shì zhè me jiǎn dān 。”
回想起之前在幽族血脉中见到的那枚玄奥字符，李凡若有所思：“仙人想要化凡，绝不仅仅只是降势这么简单。”
Rolling black aura rushed towards the Immortal World sphere. The Immortal World seemed to sense something extremely terrifying and its light suddenly contracted.
“ zhè qí zhōng ， hái qiān chě dào 【 xiān fán zhī biàn 】。”
“这其中，还牵扯到【仙凡之变】。”
From the originally large light ball, it returned to a white-edged chess piece.
“ nà shì jī hū gēn 【 zào huà 】 tóng gé de lì liàng ……”
“那是几乎跟【造化】同格的力量……”
Under the Shao Yao Sect members' dumbfounded gazes, it transformed into a beam of white light that pierced through the sky and quickly escaped.
sī xù fān fēi 。
思绪翻飞。
The sky in the eyes of the Shao Yao Sect members was naturally Li Fan's wooden sword shadow and Immortal World array protection. A method to temporarily contain Heavenly Doctor could not even stop this beam for an instant.
lǐ fán qǐng kè jiān ， dà zhì huán yuán le yǒu guān xiān jiè 、 xuán huáng de kě néng zhēn xiàng 。
李凡顷刻间，大致还原了有关仙界、玄黄的可能真相。
As the Immortal World chess piece was about to disappear into the sea, a giant finger descended from the heavens, piercing through space and firmly pressing it down. It was none other than Li Fan's Nine Heavens Dusting Finger!
zhè qí zhōng jué dà duō shù ， dōu shì yóu lǐ fán chà nà suǒ bǎ wò dào de 、 chū dài dà tiān zūn gēn xíng wú quē jiàng shì de gòng tóng diǎn suǒ tuī cè de 。 dàn néng gēn cǐ qián suǒ chá tàn dào de zhū sī mǎ jì xiāng hù duì yìng ， yǐ jīng hěn néng shuō míng wèn tí le 。
这其中绝大多数，都是由李凡刹那所把握到的、初代大天尊跟邢无缺降势的共同点所推测的。但能跟此前所查探到的蛛丝马迹相互对应，已经很能说明问题了。
Perhaps sensing the high势of the Nine Heavens Dusting Finger, or perhaps the threat from the black aura had been eliminated, the white light stopped struggling after a momentary tremor.
“ yì zhí àn zhōng yǐn cáng de zhé xiān ……”
“一直暗中隐藏的谪仙……”
It withdrew all its fluctuations and quietly hovered in mid-air.
“ dàn shàng yī shì ， gāo qiáng bēng tā 、 xīng hǎi dòng dàng ， què yī jiù méi yǒu xiǎn chū zōng jì 。”
“但上一世，高墙崩塌、星海动荡，却依旧没有显出踪迹。”
"This reaction is too exaggerated."
“ kàn lái dào le xiàn zài zhè ge shí jiān jié diǎn ， jí biàn zhé xiān yě bù cún zài yú zhì àn xīng hǎi zhōng le 。”
“看来到了现在这个时间节点，即便谪仙也不存在于至暗星海中了。”
"It should be that the appearance of the black aura triggered some kind of obstruction," Li Fan thought as he observed for a while. "The expansion of the Immortal World failed."
“ dāng rán ， wèi bì shì yǐ jīng yǔn luò le 。 jí yǒu kě néng ， yǐ jīng tiào chū le gāo qiáng zhī wài ！”
“当然，未必是已经陨落了。极有可能，已经跳出了高墙之外！”
This temporary failure did not mean that the Immortal World chess piece lost its effect; it merely temporarily retreated into dormancy.
zhì àn xīng hǎi zuò wéi mù qián lǐ fán suǒ huó dòng de dà běn yíng ， cóng míng miàn shàng lái kàn ， hái jiào wéi ān quán 。 zhè ràng lǐ fán shāo gǎn xīn ān 。
至暗星海作为目前李凡所活动的大本营，从明面上来看，还较为安全。这让李凡稍感心安。
However, during the moment just before it started to expand, Li Fan had already glimpsed some scenes within the Immortal World.
“ yōu zú rén ， jì rán shì chū dài dà tiān zūn xuè mài 。”
“幽族人，既然是初代大天尊血脉。”
"Basically confirmed, there are no living beings in this Immortal World."
“ nà me bù zhī dào néng bù néng tōng guò 【 xiǎn 】 zì jué ， jī fā tā men jiān de xuè mài lián xì ， cóng ér zhuī zōng dào nà wèi zhé xiān ？”
“那么不知道能不能通过【显】字诀，激发他们间的血脉联系，从而追踪到那位谪仙？”
"The scenario of a sleeping True Immortal潜伏ing here will not occur,"
yí gè wēi xiǎn de xiǎng fǎ ， hū de chū xiàn zài lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng 。
一个危险的想法，忽的出现在李凡脑海中。
"But besides the basic laws of the Immortal World, the most obvious..."
dàn hěn kuài ， jiù bèi tā qiáng xíng yā xià 。
但很快，就被他强行压下。
Li Fan's brows furrowed as he stretched out his hand and tried to gesture.
“ xiàn zài ， hái méi yǒu bì yào zuò cǐ wú wèi zhī jǔ 。 huò xǔ rì hòu ， děng yǒu shí lì kāi shǐ tàn suǒ gāo qiáng zhī wài le ， zài kǎo lǜ cǐ shì 。”
“现在，还没有必要做此无谓之举。或许日后，等有实力开始探索高墙之外了，再考虑此事。”
"These floating lights..."
cóng zhū duō xiàn suǒ suì piàn zhōng ， kuī jiàn le céng jīng xiān jiè de bīng shān yī jiǎo 。
从诸多线索碎片中，窥见了曾经仙界的冰山一角。
"Are True Immortal script characters?"
ràng lǐ fán duì xiān jiè yù fā hào qí de tóng shí ， yě bù yóu duì nà yǐ jīng sōu jí wán bì 、 què hái méi yǒu jìn xíng pīn zhuāng de xiān yù suì piàn ， chǎn shēng liǎo wú bǐ de jiè xīn 。
让李凡对仙界愈发好奇的同时，也不由对那已经搜集完毕、却还没有进行拼装的仙域碎片，产生了无比的戒心。
Li Fan was uncertain. From the fleeting glimpse of the Immortal World just now, Li Fan saw many moving black lines.
“ rú guǒ céng jīng zhēn yǒu zhēn xiān ， jiāng xià jiè shì wèi duǒ bì zāi huò de wēn chuáng 。 nà me zhè bèi chāi jiě 、 fēng jìn de xiān yù lǐ ， jí yǒu kě néng chéng wéi tā men de cáng shēn zhī suǒ ……”
“如果曾经真有真仙，将下界视为躲避灾祸的温床。那么这被拆解、封禁的仙域里，极有可能成为他们的藏身之所……”
Having been immersed in True Immortal script for a long time, Li Fan naturally recognized those as structures that appeared in various True Immortal script characters.
lǐ fán xīn zhōng chén yín zhe ， duì yào bù yào qǐ yòng sūn piāo miǎo liú xià de xiān yù suì piàn ， chǎn shēng le yóu yù 。
李凡心中沉吟着，对要不要启用孙缥缈留下的仙域碎片，产生了犹豫。
"The True Immortal script actually turns laws into tangible forms."
sī cǔn liáng jiǔ ， zhōng jiū shì xià dìng le jué xīn ， jiāng yóu yí yā xià 。
思忖良久，终究是下定了决心，将犹疑压下。
"When these tangible True Immortal script characters decompose and re-form into laws..."
“ zhè me yí gè máng hé ， chí zǎo yǒu kāi tā de nà tiān 。”
“这么一个盲盒，迟早有开它的那天。”
"This is the process of the chess piece expanding to become an Immortal World?"
“ wǎn kāi ， bù rú zǎo kāi 。”
“晚开，不如早开。”
Li Fan had a sudden realization. The Immortal World chess piece could be seen as countless叠加的True Immortal script characters!
“ zhǎng wò le xiān zhèn jiàng jí zhī fǎ ， zhū duō xiān zhèn zài shǒu ， jí biàn chū xiàn le shén me yì wài ， yě néng què bǎo wǒ cóng róng fā dòng hái zhēn 。”
“掌握了仙阵降级之法，诸多仙阵在手，即便出现了什么意外，也能确保我从容发动还真。”
At the same time, Li Fan's heart thumped.
“ kuàng qiě ， xīng hǎi zhōng hái yǒu yī chù duì xiān tè gōng zhī dì ……”
“况且，星海中还有一处对仙特攻之地……”
The number of True Immortal script characters contained in this chess piece that could construct a complete Immortal World was likely beyond imagination.
lǐ fán yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī dào jīng máng 。
李凡眼中闪过一道精芒。
"The True Immortal who built this chess piece must not have been an ordinary figure!"
"True, the speed of its spread is faster than expected," Li Fan thought as he observed the black aura. "And this black aura region's outer layer..."
After observing for a while and comparing it with previous observations, Li Fan frowned slightly.
He had seen the signs of the Destructive Void before multiple times, but they were extremely far away, only causing a sense of crisis when he witnessed the black aura.
Now, even without directly observing the endless black aura, Li Fan still felt an inexplicable sense of dread. This feeling was like a tide that surged in his heart.
The sense of crisis persisted, and even the Xuan Huang Immortal Heart Spell could not dispel it. The longer he stayed, the stronger this feeling became.
Suppressing his instinct to flee, Li Fan carefully savored this specific sensation.
"It feels as if a dangerous wall is collapsing and a grand building is about to fall; I am in danger beneath that wall and building..."
Under intense crisis, Li Fan did not advance but retreated. The wooden sword shadow almost reached the edge of the expanding black aura sea.
"Begin," Li Fan said indifferently to Liu Luhun and others within the wooden sword shadow.
The Shao Yao Sect members knew nothing about their current situation as they watched the floating light ball in front, their expressions dazed.
With golden chains缠绕 around them, a seven-colored chess piece, a white chess piece, and six gray chess pieces were clearly visible.
"This is the old ancestor's left-over Immortal World fragments!" The Shao Yao Sect members, excited about uncovering the ancient Immortal World secrets left by Sun Piapo, began to fuse the Immortal World fragments under Li Fan's instructions.
Led by Liu Luhun's [Great Dao Longevity Scripture], they first fused the six gray chess pieces that each had been sealed separately.
