“ shèn zhì ， jí yǒu kě néng shì nà wèi míng dào xiān chū shǒu ！”
“甚至，极有可能是那位铭道仙出手！”
“True, you guessed wrong. This stone doesn't have any special properties. Think about something else,” Li Fan said indifferently.
“ bì jìng měi yī méi zhēn xiān zhuàn zì ， dōu duì yìng zhe yī tiáo xiān jiè fǎ zé 。 ér néng rú cǐ qīng miáo dàn xiě de jiāng wú shù zì fú dié jiā 、 róng hé qí jiān ……”
“毕竟每一枚真仙篆字，都对应着一条仙界法则。而能如此轻描淡写的将无数字符叠加、融合其间……”
Liu Ruxu nodded reluctantly. The other elders also exchanged glances of embarrassment and continued their search for clues in the old药王宗 grounds.
lǐ fán shén qíng níng zhòng ， jiāng nà méi xiān yù qí zi líng kōng shè lái 。
李凡神情凝重，将那枚仙域棋子凌空摄来。
However, one person's attention did not waver despite Li Fan’s conclusion. Instead, his eyes sparkled with curiosity.
yuán xiān suǒ yǒu de shén shèng qì xī ， dōu suí zhe zhǎn kāi de zhōng zhǐ ér xiāo shī 。 zhè méi qí zi jìng hǎo sì yī jiàn fán wù ， jìng jìng tǎng zài lǐ fán shǒu zhōng 。
原先所有的神圣气息，都随着展开的中止而消失。这枚棋子竟好似一件凡物，静静躺在李凡手中。
"Senior," he said.
cháng shì zài dù jiāng qí jī fā ， xiān yù qí zi què duì wài jiè de cì jī méi yǒu sī háo de fǎn yìng 。
尝试再度将其激发，仙域棋子却对外界的刺激没有丝毫的反应。
Li Fan looked at him curiously as information about him appeared before his mind.
“ guǒ rán ， hái shì xū yào yào wáng zōng de cháng shēng qīng lì cái xíng 。”
“果然，还是需要药王宗的长生青力才行。”
Ruan Tianxiao was a member of the combined Daoists in the药王宗.
“ ér qiě ， xiān yù qí zi zì shēn zhǎn kāi 、 yě xū yào xiāo hào mǒu zhǒng néng liàng 。 gāng gāng zhǎn kāi guò chéng shī bài ， què shì yào zài jī xù yī duàn shí jiān 。”
“而且，仙域棋子自身展开、也需要消耗某种能量。刚刚展开过程失败，却是要再积蓄一段时间。”
Unlike other elders who used spiritual implants for their medicinal practices, Ruan Tianxiao preferred to use animal and beast bodies, as well as human tissues, for his medicines.
lǐ fán bǎ wán zhe zhè kē biǎo miàn guāng huá 、 bīng lěng de qí zi ， àn zì chuǎi mó dào 。
李凡把玩着这颗表面光滑、冰冷的棋子，暗自揣摩道。
Although these methods indeed produced remarkable results, they were too gruesome and violent, and somewhat shocking. Therefore, Ruan Tianxiao's "flesh pills" were not widely accepted by the masses.
yuǎn fāng ， xīng hǎi zhōng yāng 。 bèi xiān yù liú lù qì xī suǒ yǐn dòng de hēi qì zhī hǎi ， bìng méi yǒu yīn wèi xiān yù zhǎn kāi de yǎn qí xī gǔ ér píng xī 。
远方，星海中央。被仙域流露气息所引动的黑气之海，并没有因为仙域展开的偃旗息鼓而平息。
"But you can speak freely," Li Fan encouraged him.
fǎn ér xiàng shì àn xià le gè jiā sù jiàn hòu ， gǔn gǔn hēi qì bù kě nì zhuǎn de 、 jì xù cháo zhe zhōu wéi kuò sàn 。
反而像是按下了个加速键后，滚滚黑气不可逆转的、继续朝着周围扩散。
"That ancestor’s square stone, after breaking into pieces, resembles a pill."
dà yǒu yī gǔ zuò qì 、 yào tūn mò xīng hǎi zhī yì 。
大有一鼓作气、要吞没星海之意。
"While in its stone form, it was still undergoing the process of refining. Only when the stone was shattered did that momentary transformation truly complete the pill…" Ruan Tianxiao explained carefully.
lǐ fán méi tóu jǐn suǒ ， sī cǔn piàn kè 、 yú cǐ chù shǐ yòng le 【 tài jiǎ shén shù 】。
李凡眉头紧锁，思忖片刻、于此处使用了【太甲神术】。
"Senior Elder, how can you speak nonsense like this in front of Senior?" another elder rebuked him.
yóu yú xuán xiān zhōu nà biān de pín fán shǐ yòng ， duì yú lǐ fán de gōu tōng 、 xīng hǎi yì shí yǐ jīng shī qù le huí yìng de xìng qù 。
由于玄仙舟那边的频繁使用，对于李凡的沟通、星海意识已经失去了回应的兴趣。
"Indeed, according to your theory, why would the fragrance weaken after breaking the stone into pieces?"
dàn cóng yǒu xiàn de gǎn yìng lái kàn ……
但从有限的感应来看……
"Where is the pill?" The other combined Daoists asked, expressing their disagreement after observing for a while.
xīng hǎi běn yuán zhēn yì ， duì xīng hǎi zhōng yāng yǐ jīng fàn làn chéng zāi de hēi qì zhī cháo ， jìng rán yì diǎn dōu méi néng chá jué ！
星海本源真意，对星海中央已经泛滥成灾的黑气之潮，竟然一点都没能察觉！
Ruan Tianxiao did not defend himself but smiled slightly. "To verify if these fragments are truly pills..."
zhè zhǒng zhēng yǎn xiā yī yàng de biǎo xiàn ， ràng lǐ fán xīn zhōng bù yóu sǒng rán 。
这种睁眼瞎一样的表现，让李凡心中不由悚然。
"Just swallow them!"
hǎo sì shēn tǐ bèi wú shù hēi chóng shì yǎo ， shēn tǐ de zhǔ rén què shǐ zhōng shú shì wú dǔ 。
好似身体被无数黑虫噬咬，身体的主人却始终熟视无睹。
"Senior, I am willing to test this medicine on myself!" Liu Ruxu said earnestly.
zhè yàng guǐ yì de chǎng jǐng ， zhǐ néng shuō míng hēi qì de běn zhì ， yào yuǎn yuǎn líng jià yú xīng hǎi běn yuán zhēn yì zhī shàng ！
这样诡异的场景，只能说明黑气的本质，要远远凌驾于星海本源真意之上！
The药王宗 members fell silent immediately.
ér lǐ fán suǒ mù dǔ de suǒ wèi hēi qì 、 jué fēi qí běn zhì 。 bù guò shì wài zài biǎo xiàng bà le 。
而李凡所目睹的所谓黑气、绝非其本质。不过是外在表象罢了。
Li Fan squinted at Ruan Tianxiao and extended his right hand, creating an invisible whirlwind that swept up all the stone dust into a ball. He tossed it in his hand and sensed once more: "Still just stones."
“ dào yān zhī jié xiān zhào ……”
“道湮之劫先兆……”
"Are you sure this is a pill?"
“ liú gěi wǒ de shí jiān 、 kǒng pà bù duō le 。”
“留给我的时间、恐怕不多了。”
Ruan Tianxiao stared intently at the stone pill in Li Fan's hand and nodded. "I have been testing medicines on myself for years, and my body has formed an inexplicable reaction to beneficial pills over time."
lǐ fán yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jì dàn ， jiāng hēi qì zhī hǎi biān yuán mù jiàn xū yǐng lǒng zhào xià de yào wáng zōng zhòng rén dài zhe yì qǐ ， fǎn huí xuán huáng jiè zhōng 。
李凡眼中闪过一丝忌惮，将黑气之海边缘木剑虚影笼罩下的药王宗众人带着一起，返回玄黄界中。
"In my eyes, the fragrance of this stone pill surpasses any other pill I've ever seen by a thousandfold!"
“ qián bèi ， gāng gāng ……” yào wáng zōng zhǔ liǔ rú chén yù yán yòu zhǐ 。
“前辈，刚刚……”药王宗主柳如尘欲言又止。
Ruan Tianxiao was resolute.
quán chéng bèi mù jiàn xū yǐng de huàn jìng suǒ lǒng zhào ， yào wáng zōng zhòng rén gēn běn yì shí bú dào 、 duǎn duǎn shí jiān nèi ， tā men jiù yǐ jīng shì xīng hǎi zhōng yāng zǒu le yī zāo 。
全程被木剑虚影的幻境所笼罩，药王宗众人根本意识不到、短短时间内，他们就已经是星海中央走了一遭。
Li Fan pondered thoughtfully. He suddenly recalled Mo Rujun, who had been trying endlessly at the fishing pond but still couldn't uncover its secrets.
zài tā men de shì jiǎo zhōng ， jǐn jǐn shì xiān qí róng hé guò chéng zhōng fā shēng le biàn gù ， xiān qí zuì zhōng sī liè cāng qióng 、 pò kōng ér qù le 。
在他们的视角中，仅仅是仙棋融合过程中发生了变故，仙棋最终撕裂苍穹、破空而去了。
One cannot see through the fishing pond without the perspective of a fisherman.
lǐ fán miàn sè tǎn rán ：“ wú xū dān xīn ， xiān yù qí zi wǒ jiāng tā lán zhù huí shōu le ……”
李凡面色坦然：“无需担心，仙域棋子我将它拦住回收了……”
Similarly, one cannot discover the secret of this stone pill without the perspective of an alchemist.
liǔ rú chén wén yán ， bù jīn sōng le kǒu qì 。
柳如尘闻言，不禁松了口气。
"Interesting."
lǐ fán wēi wēi tàn le kǒu qì ：“ wǒ men hái shì yǒu xiē xiǎng dāng rán le ， sūn piāo miǎo liú xià de xiān yù qí zi ， bìng fēi nà me róng yì jiù chóng xiàn yú shì de 。 gāng gāng shī bài de fǎn shì ， chà diǎn jiù ràng wǒ men mìng sàng dāng chǎng 。 hǎo zài wǒ miǎn qiǎng jiāng qí dǎng zhù 。”
李凡微微叹了口气：“我们还是有些想当然了，孙缥缈留下的仙域棋子，并非那么容易就重现于世的。刚刚失败的反噬，差点就让我们命丧当场。好在我勉强将其挡住。”

liǔ rú chén děng rén ， suī kàn bú jiàn gǔn gǔn de hēi qì zhī hǎi 。 què yě fēn fēn gǎn shòu dào le nà dà shà jiāng qīng de wēi jī zhī gǎn 。
柳如尘等人，虽看不见滚滚的黑气之海。却也纷纷感受到了那大厦将倾的危机之感。
Feeling unwell today, that's all for now. I recommend a new book by Gu Zhu Ren (Worm True Man). It has already gained over ten thousand words and is well-established.
quán dōu zàn tóng diǎn tóu ：“ duō xiè qián bèi chū shǒu xiàng jiù 。”
全都赞同点头：“多谢前辈出手相救。”
In the volcano, the ancient sage’s mechanical immortal palace, yearns for successors.
lǐ fán bǎi bǎi shǒu ：“ jǔ shǒu zhī láo bà le ！ zhòng yào de shì ， zěn me chéng gōng jiāng xiān yù qí zi zhǎn kāi 。 sūn piāo miǎo dāng nián ， kěn dìng àn zhōng liú xià le xiàn suǒ 。”
李凡摆摆手：“举手之劳罢了！重要的是，怎么成功将仙域棋子展开。孙缥缈当年，肯定暗中留下了线索。”
Mother risked her life to obtain the palace's treasure seal before passing it on to Ning Zuo just before she died.
“ zhǐ kě xī hòu rén méi yǒu zhòng shì ， yǐ zhì yú guān jiàn xìn xī duàn jué 。”
“只可惜后人没有重视，以致于关键信息断绝。”
Buddha's Heart Seal!
yào wáng zōng yī zhòng rén děng ， jiē shì miàn lù cán kuì zhī sè 。
药王宗一众人等，皆是面露惭愧之色。
Save yourself as a Buddha, save others as demons.
zhè duàn shí jiān yǐ lái ， zì cóng dé zhī lǎo zǔ mò dà shén tōng shǒu bǐ zhī hòu ， tā men jiù bù duàn wā jué guò wǎng hū lüè de 、 yǒu guān sūn piāo miǎo de rèn hé xìn xī 。
这段时间以来，自从得知老祖莫大神通手笔之后，他们就不断挖掘过往忽略的、有关孙缥缈的任何信息。
Holding this seal allows one to inscribe heart seals, command mechanical constructs with minimal effort. Ordinary people struggle greatly when commanding mechanisms, but Ning Zuo can wield them effortlessly.
shì tú cóng zhōng zhǎo dào qí tā yǒu jià zhí de xiàn suǒ 。
试图从中找到其他有价值的线索。
Ning Zuo: "Mother, I will fulfill your request and obtain that immortal palace!"
dàn shí jiān yǐ jīng guò qù tài jiǔ ， chú le nà piān yóu jì zhī wài 、 yào wáng zōng lǎo zǔ yě jǐn jǐn cún zài yú kǒu ěr xiāng chuán de jiào dǎo zhī zhōng 。 bìng méi yǒu yǒu xiào de shōu huò 。
但时间已经过去太久，除了那篇游记之外、药王宗老祖也仅仅存在于口耳相传的教导之中。并没有有效的收获。
Just as:
“ qián bèi ， wǒ xiǎng ， rú guǒ zhēn néng yǒu qí tā shén me yǐn cáng xìn xī wǒ men méi yǒu fā xiàn de huà ， nà me yīng gāi cún zài yú yào wáng zōng zōng mén zhī zhōng ！” liǔ rú chén hū de rú cǐ shuō dào 。
“前辈，我想，如果真能有其他什么隐藏信息我们没有发现的话，那么应该存在于药王宗宗门之中！”柳如尘忽的如此说道。
Divine偶通灵秘,
Craftsmanship巧合至理.
Opening the universe to new realms,
Nature's beauty aligns with heaven.
Ancient bells transmit teachings under the moonlight.
True form embodies all phenomena,
Who in the world can match us on earth!
