yǐ wǎng huán zhēn fā dòng shí ， yī céng xū huàn de shuǐ wù ， jiāng zhōu wéi lǒng zhào 。
以往还真发动时，一层虚幻的水雾，将周围笼罩。
Previously, everything that happened during the simulation gave Li Fan an extremely unreal feeling. His mind was still immersed in the contemplation of the changes between true and false.
shì shàng suǒ yǒu yī qiè quán dōu biàn dé bù zài zhēn shí 。
世上所有一切全都变得不再真实。
After a day and night, he could no longer capture any inspiration waves and temporarily stopped his enlightenment practice.
dāng lǐ fán de yì shí zài dù sū xǐng zhī hòu ， yǐ jīng shì huí dào le jì dìng de máo diǎn 。
当李凡的意识再度苏醒之后，已经是回到了既定的锚点。
His attention then focused on the prompt from "Truly Real".
ér xiàn zài ……
而现在……
[Simulation ended this time]
dāng lǐ fán xīn zhōng mò niàn hái zhēn zhī hòu ， bù zài shì yī céng hòu hòu de shuǐ lián chū xiàn 、 jiāng zhōu wéi yǎn yìng 。
当李凡心中默念还真之后，不再是一层厚厚的水帘出现、将周围掩映。
[You can choose one of the following options to retain:
zhěng gè shì jiè ， dōu zài lǐ fán yí niàn zhī jiān jìn rù le jìng zhǐ zhuàng tài 。 zhǐ bù guò cóng xiān qián de bīn fēn sè cǎi ， biàn chéng le dān diào de hēi bái èr sè 。
整个世界，都在李凡一念之间进入了静止状态。只不过从先前的缤纷色彩，变成了单调的黑白二色。
1. An item you possessed during this simulation.
2. Your cultivation realm during this simulation.
3. A simulated memory of a person closely related to yourself, which can be inherited by that person.
4. Abandon all above choices and accelerate charging progress.]
lǐ fán cóng wèi zài zhè zhǒng shì jiǎo xià ， guān chá guò shì jiè 。 tā zhēng zhēng de kàn zhe ， cán pò wàn wù guī xū dà zhèn ， cán cún de fēng lì 、 hǎo sì dòng jié zài bàn kōng 。
李凡从未在这种视角下，观察过世界。他怔怔的看着，残破万物归虚大阵，残存的风力、好似冻结在半空。
...
wú shù tiān dì xiān pò ， huán rào zhe tā ， shēn xíng gè yì 。
无数天地仙魄，环绕着他，身形各异。
"I actually didn't get any additional variables or extra options for inheritance after achieving half-sagehood," Li Fan said with a self-deprecating smile.
gèng yuǎn chù de dì fāng ， yǐn yuē kě yǐ kàn dào yī dào kū shòu de shēn yǐng ， jiàng lín tiān dì 。 zhèng shì xiān xū wù dào jī xiān 。
更远处的地方，隐约可以看到一道枯瘦的身影，降临天地。正是仙墟悟道饥仙。
"Seems like my achievement of half-sagehood was fully within the prediction of Truly Real."
……
……
Li Fan pondered briefly. "However, newly born Xuanhuang Immortal Realm does not belong to any additional variables. But what about that person who descended from outside the wall...?" Li Fan fell into a brief contemplation.
yǎn qián yī qiè ， sì hū dōu gēn 【 hái zhēn 】 zhī qián bié wú èr yàng 。 wéi yī de qū bié ， jiù zhǐ shì tā men xiàn rù le hēi bái de jìng zhǐ zhuàng tài 。
眼前一切，似乎都跟【还真】之前别无二样。唯一的区别，就只是他们陷入了黑白的静止状态。
Afterward, he shook his head and regained his composure.
lǐ fán jǐn shèn guān chá le xǔ jiǔ ， hū de xīn zhōng yī dòng ， suí jí shēn xíng piāo hū 、 jìng rán zhí jiē zài zhè jìng zhǐ de shì jiè zhōng ， dòng le qǐ lái ！
李凡谨慎观察了许久，忽的心中一动，随即身形飘忽、竟然直接在这静止的世界中，动了起来！
"Overthinking is useless. I have already achieved half-sagehood in this life and am invincible in the Star Sea."
zhè jué duì shì zhǒng jí wéi xīn qí de tǐ yàn ， lǐ fán mī zhuó yǎn jīng ， cháng shì qù chù mō fù jìn yī dào tiān dì xiān pò 。
这绝对是种极为新奇的体验，李凡眯着眼睛，尝试去触摸附近一道天地仙魄。
"In this life, I must look beyond the walls."
jí biàn yǐ jīng shì hēi bái xíng tài ， lǐ fán yě yī yǎn rèn chū le ， duì fāng nǎi shì lǎo shú rén 、 chì yán 。
即便已经是黑白形态，李凡也一眼认出了，对方乃是老熟人、赤炎。
"What mysteries there are, let me investigate them!"
xiāng jiào yú tiān dì zhī pò shí qī ， xiàn zài de chì yán liǎn shàng de shén qíng yuè fā shēng dòng 、 jī hū gēn zhēn rén wú yì 。 dàn tā de shuāng yǎn què shì shǐ zhōng jǐn bì zhe de ， shēn shàng huàn huà de yī wù yě shì pò pò làn làn 。 gēn qí tā tiān dì xiān pò ， xiǎn de yǒu xiē gé gé bù rù 。
相较于天地之魄时期，现在的赤炎脸上的神情越发生动、几乎跟真人无异。但祂的双眼却是始终紧闭着的，身上幻化的衣物也是破破烂烂。跟其他天地仙魄，显得有些格格不入。
---
lǐ fán yǔ tiān dì xiān pò chì yán xiāng pèng de yī shùn jiān ， chì yán de shēn qū jiù hū de shǎn yào le xià ， huà zuò wú shù guāng lì ， suí fēng ér qù le 。
李凡与天地仙魄赤炎相碰的一瞬间，赤炎的身躯就忽的闪耀了下，化作无数光粒，随风而去了。
Despite not being perfect, achieving half-sagehood was still above all mundane things.
lǐ fán gèng shì gǎn yìng dào ， zhè piàn jìng zhǐ shì jiè de fàn wéi ， yě suí zhī dà fú dù suō jiǎn le yī quān 。
李凡更是感应到，这片静止世界的范围，也随之大幅度缩减了一圈。
Of the four options from Truly Real, he definitely chose to inherit his cultivation realm.
zàn shí méi yǒu qù guǎn yuǎn chù de shì ， lǐ fán mī zhuó yǎn jīng ， huí wèi zhe gāng gāng chū xiàn zài nǎo hǎi zhōng de huà miàn 。
暂时没有去管远处的事，李凡眯着眼睛，回味着刚刚出现在脑海中的画面。
However...
chú le xiē xǔ chún cuì wú bǐ de chì yán fǎ zé suì piàn zhī wài ， hái yǒu líng xīng jǐ diǎn de jì yì huà miàn 。
除了些许纯粹无比的赤炎法则碎片之外，还有零星几点的记忆画面。
Li Fan walked slowly towards the Disentanglement Mountain and the cliff edge. He looked up at the weak small world of Great Xuan and even the Xuanhuang Realm.
nà shì yī wèi yǐ huǒ chéng zūn de xiā yǎn xiū shì de guò wǎng jīng lì 。
那是一位以火成尊的瞎眼修士的过往经历。
He sighed.
ér jì yì zhōng ， zhè wèi xiā yǎn xiū shì suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de wēi néng ， zé shì ràng lǐ fán sǒng rán ér jīng 。
而记忆中，这位瞎眼修士所表现出来的威能，则是让李凡悚然而惊。
"If I were to inherit my cultivation here, it would likely tear apart the small world of Great Xuan immediately with a manifestation of ascending sagehood."
wán quán kàn bú dào biān jì de bīng lěng kū jì xīng yù ， xiā yǎn xiū shì zuò yú qí zhōng wù dào 。 bù zhī dào guò qù le duō shǎo zài ， màn màn de yǒu xīng xīng diǎn diǎn de huǒ guāng ， huì jù zài xiā yǎn xiū shì de shēn biān 。
完全看不到边际的冰冷枯寂星域，瞎眼修士坐于其中悟道。不知道过去了多少载，慢慢的有星星点点的火光，汇聚在瞎眼修士的身边。
"Even the Xuanhuang Realm, stitched together from various realms, might shatter due to this massive shock and fall into the Sage Void."
bīng lěng xīng yù ， zhú jiàn biàn dé wēn nuǎn qǐ lái 。 ér hòu shì wú bǐ de chì rè 。 zuì hòu zhěng piàn xīng yù ， dōu bèi wú xíng zhī huǒ fén jǐn ， chéng wéi bīng lěng dōu bù cún zài de xū wú 、 kōng dòng zhī suǒ 。
冰冷星域，逐渐变得温暖起来。而后是无比的炽热。最后整片星域，都被无形之火焚尽，成为冰冷都不存在的虚无、空洞之所。
"Enough!"
huà miàn zuì hòu ， nà wèi xiā yǎn xiū shì yě fǎng fú xiāo shī zài le tiān dì zhī jiān 。
画面最后，那位瞎眼修士也仿佛消失在了天地之间。
"There are still places where I need them."
lǐ fán xiàn rú jīn ， yǐ tiān dì xiān pò hé dào 。 suī zhǐ shì hé dào jìng jiè ， què shí jì shì bàn xiān de shí lì 。
李凡现如今，以天地仙魄合道。虽只是合道境界，却实际是半仙的实力。
Li Fan's expression turned solemn as he softly recited: "False is true."
yīn ér tā gèng néng zhēn zhèng tǐ huì dào ， jì yì zhōng zhè wèi xiā yǎn xiū shì suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de shí lì jiū jìng shì yǒu duō me de qiáng dà 。
因而他更能真正体会到，记忆中这位瞎眼修士所表现出来的实力究竟是有多么的强大。
In the next moment, the feeling of his cultivation after achieving half-sagehood in the previous life descended upon Li Fan.
「 jǐn jǐn shì wù dào suǒ yǐn qǐ de jǐng xiàng ， dōu rú cǐ kǒng bù 。」
「仅仅是悟道所引起的景象，都如此恐怖。」
Due to prolonged contemplation within the Dao Concealment Zone, Li Fan's understanding of the changes between true and false had significantly improved.
「 zhēn xiān …… jué duì shì zhēn xiān ！」
「真仙……绝对是真仙！」
Unlike before, where this imagined cultivation could only last for a brief instant, it now lasted through three breaths!
lǐ fán xīn zhōng zhèn dòng bù yǐ 。
李凡心中震动不已。
As he chanted, Li Fan recovered his peak half-sage strength from the previous life.
dàn hěn kuài ， tā jiù yì shí dào le gèng jiā liǎo bù dé shì qíng 。
但很快，他就意识到了更加了不得事情。
In the first breath, Li Fan drew his wooden sword and arrived in the vast star sea.
「 děng děng ， gāng gāng wǒ suǒ jiàn de ……」
「等等，刚刚我所见的……」
In the second breath, he chose to inherit his cultivation realm from Truly Real.
「 zhēn xiān wù dào ， xiāo shī yú tiān dì jiān 。」
「真仙悟道，消失于天地间。」
Suddenly, a storm of wind and clouds rose up in the star sea. A terrifying storm shook the entire star sea!
「 zhè shì tā chéng jiù wú míng zhēn xiān zhī jìng shí hòu de huà miàn ？」
「这是祂成就无名真仙之境时候的画面？」
As if drawn by an invisible force, the remnants of true sages' inscriptions scattered throughout the star sea converged towards the center of the storm.
lǐ fán nèi xīn zài dù zhèn bù ， shēn qū shèn zhì dōu zhǐ bú zhù de wēi wēi chàn dǒu 。
李凡内心再度震怖，身躯甚至都止不住的微微颤抖。
It seemed to be intensifying.
sī niàn jí zhuǎn ， jǐ gè hū xī hòu ， lǐ fán yǐn yǐn cāi dào le zhè yī qiè huì fā shēng de yuán yīn 。
思念急转，几个呼吸后，李凡隐隐猜到了这一切会发生的原因。
After three breaths, Li Fan fully inherited the cultivation realm from the Heaven-Slaying True Sage's soul that had merged with the world.
「 tiān dì zhī pò ， nǎi shì xuán huáng jiè fǎ zé jiè zhù lì shǐ shàng céng jīng chū xiàn guò de xiū shì suǒ liú xià de yìn jì shēng chéng 。」
「天地之魄，乃是玄黄界法则借助历史上曾经出现过的修士所留下的印记生成。」
In this life, since the Xuan Tian Wang in ancient times,
「 dāng xuán huáng jiè jìn shēng xiān yù zhī hòu ， zhè ge tè xìng yě suí zhī bèi bǎo liú 。 tiān dì xiān pò ， yě shì xuán huáng xiān yù de fǎ zé zhī lì ， jiè yóu tiān dì jiān gēng shēn de yìn jì suǒ huà 。」
「当玄黄界晋升仙域之后，这个特性也随之被保留。天地仙魄，也是玄黄仙域的法则之力，借由天地间更深的印记所化。」
a second half-sage finally appeared!
「 yǔ dào tóng ， shèn zhì yǔ dào hé 。 néng gēn gè zhǒng fǎ zé chǎn shēng gòng míng zuì shēn de ， zì rán jiù shì céng jīng 【 yǐ dào zhèng dào 】 de wú míng zhēn xiān le ！」
「与道同，甚至与道合。能跟各种法则产生共鸣最深的，自然就是曾经【以道证道】的无名真仙了！」
"Still Truly Real," Li Fan said as he felt the surging and profound infinite power within him. Unlike his previous understanding of true and false, which was like a rootless plant that could vanish at any moment, Truly Real's actions had already made the false become true.
「 yī
「一
Half-Sage Li Fan looked at the gradually growing storm of residual true sages' powers caused by himself and slowly extended his left hand.
rù wú míng zhī jìng ， biàn zì cǐ xiāo shī yú tiān dì jiān 。 suǒ yǒu xuán huáng xiān yù suǒ néng gǎn shòu dào de ， jiù shì tā zhèng dào qián zuì hòu de jǐng xiàng ……」
入无名之境，便自此消失于天地间。所有玄黄仙域所能感受到的，就是祂证道前最后的景象……」
The surging and expanding storm instantly stopped. It then continuously flowed into Li Fan's hands.
lǐ fán shén qíng yán sù 。
李凡神情严肃。
In just a few breaths, this terrifying disaster that could plunge the star sea back into its abyss was completely eliminated by Li Fan.
wú míng zhēn xiān zhèng dào hòu ， biàn shì nà tiáo dà dào běn shēn 。
无名真仙证道后，便是那条大道本身。
Li Fan sneered as he looked at the true sages' residual powers gathered in his hand, which seemed to be a crumpled paper ball with countless different inscriptions.
tā zhī dào rú guǒ zì jǐ cāi cè suǒ shǔ ， nà gāng gāng zì jǐ suǒ xī shōu de ， jiù shì yī wèi wú míng zhēn xiān ， céng jīng de zhèng dào gǎn wù ！
他知道如果自己猜测所属，那刚刚自己所吸收的，就是一位无名真仙，曾经的证道感悟！
Even without deliberately using force for protection, these ancient calamities that Li Fan had always regarded as tigers and needed constant vigilance did not even harm him.
jí biàn màn tiān guāng lì zhōng ， zhǐ bǔ zhuō dào le nà me yī sī 。
即便漫天光粒中，只捕捉到了那么一丝。
"It's not that these residual powers have lost their effectiveness."
duì rú jīn gāng gāng bàn bù tà rù xiān jìng de lǐ fán lái shuō ， jué duì shì shòu yì fěi qiǎn 。
对如今刚刚半步踏入仙境的李凡来说，绝对是受益匪浅。
"Rather, the laws they construct cannot affect me, who is already a sage."
zǐ xì huí wèi zhe nǎo hǎi zhōng de suǒ sī suǒ xiǎng 。
仔细回味着脑海中的所思所想。
"After all, it's just the remnants of true sages' inscriptions."
duǎn zàn de xīng fèn zhī hòu ， lǐ fán hū de gǎn dào le yǒu xiē bú duì 。
短暂的兴奋之后，李凡忽的感到了有些不对。
Li Fan was quite satisfied with his strength after achieving half-sagehood.
「 zhēn xiān zhī shàng ， yǐ dào zhèng wú míng 。 gè zì dào tú ， dōu bù jìn xiāng tóng 。 zhè yán zhī yī dào ， yǐ jīng yǒu rén zhàn jù 。 yòu duì wǒ yǒu hé yòng ？」
「真仙之上，以道证无名。各自道途，都不尽相同。这炎之一道，已经有人占据。又对我有何用？」
"In fact, apart from the absence of immortal essence qi, I am not much different from my past true sages. At least, our status is consistent."
「 chú fēi ……」
「除非……」
"Immortal Essence Qi..."
「 nà wèi xiā yǎn wú míng zhēn xiān ， yǐ jīng sǐ le 。」
「那位瞎眼无名真仙，已经死了。」
Li Fan's attention turned to the bound item: the Disentanglement Disc.
lǐ fán yuè xiǎng ， yuè jué de yuè yǒu zhè ge kě néng 。
李凡越想，越觉得越有这个可能。
In normal circumstances, no matter what changes occurred to a bound object during the cycle of rebirth, it would not affect the state of the bound space in the simulation.
tā kuài sù kàn xiàng zhōu wéi de tiān dì xiān pò ， shì chì yán zhè yàng ， yǎn huà chū jìn rén lèi xiū shì yàng mào de ， jí qí xī yǒu 。 zhǐ yǒu sān lì 。
他快速看向周围的天地仙魄，似赤炎这样，衍化出近人类修士样貌的，极其稀有。只有三例。
Once Truly Real was activated, they would return to their initial state when first bound.
「 ruò shì xī shōu tā men ， yīng gāi néng tóng yàng de ， gǎn zhī dào duì yìng dào tú 、 wú míng zhēn xiān ， xī rì chéng zūn shí hòu huà miàn 。」
「若是吸收祂们，应该能同样的，感知到对应道途、无名真仙，昔日成尊时候画面。」
But now...
lǐ fán zhèng yù yǒu suǒ dòng zuò ， què hū de miàn sè yī biàn 。
李凡正欲有所动作，却忽的面色一变。
Li Fan's mind moved, and the Disentanglement Disc was immediately taken out.
zhǐ jiàn jiù zài tā sī cǔn de gōng fu ， jìng zhǐ hēi bái shì jiè de shēng xiào fàn wéi ， zài dù bào jiǎn 。
只见就在他思忖的功夫，静止黑白世界的生效范围，再度暴减。
In his识海, countless stars seemed to rise up, dazzlingly bright.
jiù zhǐ shèng xià le tā zhōu shēn bàn jìng jiǔ zhàng jiǔ de qiú xíng qū yù 。
就只剩下了他周身半径九丈九的球形区域。
[Disentanglement Disc, Immortal Rank], resounded with Li Fan as he returned to the present!
zhè qí zhōng ， qià hǎo méi yǒu tiān dì xiān pò cún zài 。
这其中，恰好没有天地仙魄存在。
"Just like the faceless true sage leg bone before," Li Fan looked at the "…leg bone" in the bound space of Truly Real and pondered: "Only true sages or their descendants might have the qualifications to experience the changes between true and false."
lǐ fán xīn zhōng dùn shí yǒng qǐ yī zhèn wú nài ：「 yuán lái ， chú le xī shōu jìng zhǐ shì jiè zhōng wù tǐ ， huì jiā sù qí shēng xiào fàn wéi de tān suō 。 zài zhè lǐ miàn mó cèng de tài jiǔ yě huì ……」
李凡心中顿时涌起一阵无奈：「原来，除了吸收静止世界中物体，会加速其生效范围的坍缩。在这里面磨蹭的太久也会……」
Li Fan continued reading for free.
Previously, everything that happened during the simulation gave Li Fan an extremely unreal feeling. His mind was still immersed in the contemplation of the changes between true and false.
After a day and night, he could no longer capture any inspiration waves and temporarily stopped his enlightenment practice.
His attention then focused on the prompt from "Truly Real".
