“ zī zhì 、 wù xìng , zhè zì shēn zhǒng zhǒng duì shí jì xiū wèi de yǐng xiǎng , huò xǔ cún zài zhe yí gè shàng xiàn 。 néng dá dào zhēn xiān zhī jìng , zhè fāng miàn wú lùn rú hé yě bú huì chà 。”
“资质、悟性,这自身种种对实际修为的影响,或许存在着一个上限。能达到真仙之境,这方面无论如何也不会差。”
"The situation here is... strange," the little girl thought to herself. After pondering for a long time, she realized that although she couldn't be certain of what exactly had happened, there was no one watching them now.
“ dàn xiǎng yào zài jìn yí bù ……” qiáo shì dào jì xù xiáng xì xiàng lǐ fán chǎn shù zhe zì jǐ de tuī lǐ 。
“但想要再进一步……”乔似道继续详细向李凡阐述着自己的推理。
Derivation Jade did not generate any urge to run away; instead, she happily settled down and began resting peacefully.
“ yīng dāng xū yào yí dìng de yùn qì 、 qiǎo hé 。”
“应当需要一定的运气、巧合。”
It wasn't clear how much time passed, but suddenly, a figure appeared before her. The person gently tapped on the wooden table with their fingers.
“ zuò chū de měi gè xuǎn zé , dū huì zào jiù jīn hòu bù tóng de rén shēng 。 qián bèi suǒ jiàn xié sū bái 、 hēi tiān yī , dāng tā men zuò chū le gēn zhè ge shì jiè de zì jǐ jié rán bù tóng de jué zé hòu 、 dài lái de yī xì liè hòu xù biàn huà , cái dǎo zhì le tā men de shí lì dào le nà bān de bù kě zhī zhī jìng 。”
“做出的每个选择,都会造就今后不同的人生。前辈所见邪苏白、黑天医,当他们做出了跟这个世界的自己截然不同的抉择后、带来的一系列后续变化,才导致了他们的实力到了那般的不可知之境。”
The little girl jolted awake from her dream, quickly wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth as she stared wide-eyed at the newcomer. She was no longer in a state of sleep.
“ yǐ jí , tōng guò guān yú bèi lìng wài kě néng xìng de qiáng zhě zhuī shā zhè jiàn shì , huò xǔ hái néng yí dìng chéng dù shàng pàn duàn , zhěng gè shì jiān ……” qiáo shì dào chén yín , chuǎi mó zhe cí huì 。
“以及,通过关于被另外可能性的强者追杀这件事,或许还能一定程度上判断,整个世间……”乔似道沉吟,揣摩着词汇。
"Are you the new guardian?" Derivation Jade tentatively asked.
“ biàn yòng 【 chén shì jiān 】 dài zhǐ ba 。” lǐ fán hū de chū shēng , ér hòu yòu shì yì duì fāng jì xù 。
“便用【尘世间】代指吧。”李凡忽的出声,而后又示意对方继续。
Lei smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, but not entirely."
“ é , huò xǔ néng pàn duàn zhěng gè chén shì jiān de dà zhì zhuàng kuàng 。” qiáo shì dào hěn shì shùn chàng de 、 àn zhào lǐ fán de yāo qiú xiū gǎi le xíng róng de cí huì 。
“额,或许能判断整个尘世间的大致状况。”乔似道很是顺畅的、按照李凡的要求修改了形容的词汇。
Derivation Jade puffed out her cheeks and said disdainfully, "I hate riddles like you."
“ xiáng xì shuō shuō 。” lǐ fán mù guāng shǎn shuò , yǐ jīng shì chà nà jiān cāi dào le qiáo shì dào de xiǎng fǎ 。
“详细说说。”李凡目光闪烁,已经是刹那间猜到了乔似道的想法。
She then turned to ignore Lei and started calculating something with her fingers. Her large eyes looked up at the huge character ball above them.
“ rú guǒ chén shì jiān yī rán hái cún zài wú qióng wú jìn kě néng xìng , nà jiù yì wèi zhe xuán huáng jiè rèn yì yī rén , zài lǐ lùn shàng 、 yú xīng hǎi zhī wài dōu cún zài , néng gòu qīng yì kuà yuè kě néng xìng de zhì qiáng zhě 。 sān shū , wǒ , nǎi zhì xuán huáng jiè yún yún zhòng shēng , jiē shì rú cǐ 。”
“如果尘世间依然还存在无穷无尽可能性,那就意味着玄黄界任意一人,在理论上、于星海之外都存在,能够轻易跨越可能性的至强者。三叔,我,乃至玄黄界芸芸众生,皆是如此。”
Lei did not pay much attention and slowly conjured a similar long wooden table in front of him. He laid out paper, ground ink, and picked up his brush.
“ fǎn zhī , rú guǒ xiàn rú jīn chén shì jiān de dào yān zhī jié , yǐ jīng jiāng jué dà duō shù de kě néng xìng yān miè 。 zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng huò xǔ jiù bìng bù cún zài le 。 zhǐ shì rú hé zài bǎo zhèng zì jǐ ān quán de qíng kuàng xià , jìn xíng zhè zhǒng yàn zhèng ……”
“反之,如果现如今尘世间的道湮之劫,已经将绝大多数的可能性湮灭。这种情况或许就并不存在了。只是如何在保证自己安全的情况下,进行这种验证……”
With one stroke, he completed the writing on the long wooden table.
qiáo shì dào méi tóu wēi zhòu :“ jiù bú shì wǒ mù qián néng xiǎng dào de le 。 bì jìng nà zhǒng jiǎ xiǎng dí , xiū wèi shí zài tài guò qiáng dà 。 yǐ jīng chāo chū le wǒ de néng lì fàn chóu 。”
乔似道眉头微皱:“就不是我目前能想到的了。毕竟那种假想敌,修为实在太过强大。已经超出了我的能力范畴。”
However, as soon as these two characters appeared, they immediately caught Derivation Jade's attention.
“ jì yǒu le sī lù , yǐ shì gè hǎo de kāi duān 。” lǐ fán suí kǒu zàn shǎng dào 。
“既有了思路,已是个好的开端。”李凡随口赞赏道。
She was momentarily stunned before her eyes filled with confusion. Then, she suddenly screamed loudly without any reason.
qiáo shì dào de kùn nán , duì tā lái shuō , gēn běn bú shì wèn tí 。
乔似道的困难,对他来说,根本不是问题。
"Y-You... Y-You..." Derivation Jade pointed at Lei in a trembling manner, struggling to form coherent words.
“ zhè yī shì , jiù kě zuò chū jī běn de pàn duàn 。”
“这一世,就可做出基本的判断。”
Lei gave her a casual glance.
“ zhǐ shì àn zhào shàng yī shì hēi tiān yī suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de wēi shì , wǒ xū hǎo hǎo tí qián zhǔn bèi yī fān 。”
“只是按照上一世黑天医所表现出来的威势,我需好好提前准备一番。”
Derivation Jade was startled again but remained motionless under his gaze, only staring fearfully at him.
jiē xià lái , lǐ fán yòu xiàng dì sān mò , xiáng xì de dǎ tīng le yī fān guān yú sū bái yǔ tiān yī de xìn xī 。 zhòng diǎn shì sū bái 。
接下来,李凡又向帝叁貘,详细的打听了一番关于苏白与天医的信息。重点是苏白。
"How much of the celestial realm's memories do you still have?"
jù dì sān mò de jiǎng shù , dà zhì qíng xíng gēn lǐ fán zài yǔn xiān jìng zhōng de jīng lì jī běn yí zhì 。
据帝叁貘的讲述,大致情形跟李凡在陨仙境中的经历基本一致。
After Derivation Jade finally calmed down, Lei asked casually.
dàn yě yǒu shè jí xié xìng sū bái de mǒu xiē fāng miàn , zài huàn jìng zhōng bìng méi yǒu biǎo xiàn chū lái 。
但也有涉及邪性苏白的某些方面,在幻境中并没有表现出来。
This question further confirmed what she had suspected.
“ yù shòu zōng , hǎo dǎi yě shì xiān dào shí zōng 、 tǒng zhì xuán huáng jiè kuí shǒu zhī yī 。 jiù zhè me bèi yī wú míng zhī bèi hū de zhǎo shàng mén lái , dà fàng jué cí , zì rán bú huì jiù zhè me qīng yì yīng yǔn 。”
“御兽宗,好歹也是仙道十宗、统治玄黄界魁首之一。就这么被一无名之辈忽的找上门来,大放厥词,自然不会就这么轻易应允。”
Her fear intensified as she quickly shook her head and replied, "I can't remember anything!"
“ bù guò zài jīng lì le yī cháng cán kù de zhàn dòu hòu , quán héng lì bì zhī xià , cái bù dé bù qū fú le 。” dì sān mò kǔ xiào dào 。
“不过在经历了一场残酷的战斗后,权衡利弊之下,才不得不屈服了。”帝叁貘苦笑道。
Lei raised an eyebrow with a sidelong glance. He frowned slightly.
dì sān mò suǒ miáo huì de zhàn dòu tú jǐng zhōng , yī kāi shǐ bái xiān shēng huán zhǐ shāng yù shòu 、 bù shāng xiū shì 。 dàn hòu lái , suí zhe shā lù de jìn xíng , bái xiān shēng què shì xià shǒu yuè lái yuè zhòng , shén qíng yě biàn dé zhú jiàn bú duì jìn qǐ lái 。
帝叁貘所描绘的战斗图景中,一开始白先生还只伤御兽、不伤修士。但后来,随着杀戮的进行,白先生却是下手越来越重,神情也变得逐渐不对劲起来。
Derivation Jade waved her hands frantically and anxiously explained, "I'm telling the truth! I didn't lie!"
hái shì dì sān mò mǐn ruì de chá jué dào le zhè yì diǎn , gēn yù shòu zōng zhǎng mén jí shí gōu tōng zhī hòu 。
还是帝叁貘敏锐的察觉到了这一点,跟御兽宗掌门及时沟通之后。
"Although I have some doubts about this, Mirror Profound Big Brother said that to avoid the celestial realm's disasters, most divine artifacts must sever ties with their past selves," Lei continued.
yǐ jí xī rì bèi bái xiān shēng fǔ yǎng zhǎng dà de lù yá de chū xiàn 。
以及昔日被白先生抚养长大的陆涯的出现。
"These two characters are what I just wrote, and it suddenly reminded me of something."
cái huò xǔ bì miǎn le yī zhuāng cǎn àn de fā shēng 。
才或许避免了一桩惨案的发生。
Divine artifacts, divine puppets, divine servants...
dì sān mò zì shì bù zhī dào , sū bái céng jīng yī zhī jiǎo kuà guò gāo qiáng 、 ér hòu bèi xié xìng sū bái mò míng yǐng xiǎng zhè jiàn shì de 。
帝叁貘自是不知道,苏白曾经一只脚跨过高墙、而后被邪性苏白莫名影响这件事的。
It seemed that in front of a true cultivator, they were naturally oppressed.
zhǐ rèn wéi shì , sū bái zì shēn shēn cáng de pǐn xìng 。
只认为是,苏白自身深藏的品性。
With just one glance, Derivation Jade revealed all the information she knew.
“ wǒ gù xiāng suī bèi huǐ , dàn xiǎng bì yǒu xǔ duō jiù shí gēn wǒ yī yàng , yīn chā yáng cuò jiān chéng gōng táo wǎng le qí tā kě néng xìng 。”
“我故乡虽被毁,但想必有许多旧识跟我一样,阴差阳错间成功逃往了其他可能性。”
Although her innate Derivation Jade was from the celestial realm, it was originally incomplete. After fusing with her body, her past memories had vanished like salt dissolving into water.
“ duǎn qī mù biāo , jiù shì néng gòu zhǎo dào wěn dìng tiào yuè kě néng xìng de fāng fǎ 。 cháng qī mù biāo , zé shì zhǎo nà liǎng rén bào chóu xuě hèn !”
“短期目标,就是能够找到稳定跳跃可能性的方法。长期目标,则是找那两人报仇雪恨!”
"Do not move."
“ tā men suī qiáng , què yě bù yīng gāi shì wǒ děng wèi lóu yǐ 。 rú cǐ sì wú jì dàn de xíng jìng , bì jiāng shòu dào chéng fá !” lǐ fán shén qíng sù mù , chén shēng sù zào zhe zì jǐ de rén shè 。
“他们虽强,却也不应该视我等为蝼蚁。如此肆无忌惮的行径,必将受到惩罚!”李凡神情肃穆,沉声塑造着自己的人设。
Lei said calmly and placed his hand on top of Derivation Jade's head to check her condition.
cǐ fān huà yǐn dé le yǒu jìn hū xiāng tóng zāo yù de dì sān mò , fā zì nèi xīn de zàn tóng 。
此番话引得了有近乎相同遭遇的帝叁貘,发自内心的赞同。
There were no traces of the strange object called Derivation Jade anymore.
qiáo shì dào yě shì yóu zhōng de diǎn tóu fù hè 。
乔似道也是由衷的点头附和。
It almost completely merged with a human form. However, as a "person," there was still some residual nature that had not been fully absorbed or consumed.
chéng rán , lǐ fán kě yǐ tōng guò gè zhǒng fāng fǎ , qiáng xíng ràng èr zhě wèi zì jǐ zuò shì 。 dàn zài lǐ fán kàn lái , hái shì ràng tā men xīn gān qíng yuàn de , gèng jiā gāo xiào yǔ wěn tuǒ 。
诚然,李凡可以通过各种方法,强行让二者为自己做事。但在李凡看来,还是让他们心甘情愿的,更加高效与稳妥。
"I can sense your wish."
“ cǐ jiè fā zhǎn chéng dù , shèn zhì hái yuǎn bù rú wǒ zhī gù xiāng 。 yù dá chéng cǐ mù biāo , dìng rán shū wèi bù yì 。”
“此界发展程度,甚至还远不如我之故乡。欲达成此目标,定然殊为不易。”
"Do you want to live on as [Derivation Jade] or as an actual [human]?," Lei asked gently.
“ xū qí xīn xié lì cái shì 。” lǐ fán zhè me shuō zhe , kàn xiàng bó wù shén cáng guǎn wài de wàn xiān méng zǒng bù 。
“需齐心协力才是。”李凡这么说着,看向博物神藏馆外的万仙盟总部。
Derivation Jade's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing this and then realized something. She opened her mouth slightly but did not immediately answer, instead hesitating for a while.
dì sān mò zì shì hěn kuài míng bái le lǐ fán huà lǐ de yì si , zhǔ dòng shuō dào :“ wàn xiān méng de sān dà tǒng zhì shì lì , chuán fǎ zhě 、 zhǎng jìng rén 、 huàn zhēn xián zhě 。 wǒ tǒng lǐng zhí zhǎng qí zhōng 【 huàn zhēn xián zhě 】 yī mài 。 zhèng shì yóu tōng guò 【 shí dài 】 zhuāng zhì shāi xuǎn chū lái de shén hún , ér hòu jīng yóu bó wù shén cáng guǎn zhōng suǒ bèi fèn de shēng mìng yuán liào , jīng yóu wǒ men zú qún de róng liàn jì shù , duǎn zàn ér chéng 。”
帝叁貘自是很快明白了李凡话里的意思,主动说道:“万仙盟的三大统治势力,传法者、掌镜人、幻真贤者。我统领执掌其中【幻真贤者】一脉。正是由通过【时代】装置筛选出来的神魂,而后经由博物神藏馆中所备份的生命原料,经由我们族群的熔炼技术,短暂而成。”
"Being a [Derivation Jade] means losing freedom, but it offers eternal life without the fear of death."
“ qí zhōng zuì wèi chū zhòng zhě , biàn shì míng wèi dì yī jīng lún de zào wù 。”
“其中最为出众者,便是名为第一经纶的造物。”
"However, becoming a person can break free from the constraints of objects. Yet, perhaps true freedom does not exist in this world," Lei reminded her calmly.
“ shí jì shàng , cǐ rén de dàn shēng , yě shì chōng mǎn liǎo wú shù qiǎo hé 。 qí chuán qí chéng dù , shèn zhì bù zài qiáo shì dào zhī xià ……”
“实际上,此人的诞生,也是充满了无数巧合。其传奇程度,甚至不在乔似道之下……”
Derivation Jade lowered her head and fell into deep thought. However, she ultimately made the choice that Lei had anticipated—becoming a human.
dì sān mò de jiǎng shù zhōng , lǐ fán yě zhī dào le dì yī jīng lún hé yǐ bèi guàn shū wèi 【 dì yī 】 zhī míng 。
帝叁貘的讲述中,李凡也知道了第一经纶何以被灌输为【第一】之名。
"Very well, since you have decided, I will fulfill your wish."
dì yī jīng lún běn bú shì yī dào dān dú de shén hún 。
第一经纶本不是一道单独的神魂。
Countless golden threads instantly erupted from Lei's fingers and deeply penetrated Derivation Jade's body. Despite the unbearable pain, tears streamed down her face.
míng zì gēn shòu zú de wáng zhě 【 dì yī 】 rú cǐ xiāng sì , zì bú shì ǒu rán 。 zài bèi tiāo xuǎn chū lái de 、 shù bǎi dào shén hún duàn zào shēn tǐ de guò chéng zhōng , jū rán jí qí hǎn jiàn de 、 fā shēng liǎo shì gù 。 hōng rán bào zhà zhōng , suǒ yǒu shèng yú de shēng mìng yuán liào yǐ jí shén hún , jǐn jiē róng hé zài le yì qǐ 。
名字跟兽族的王者【帝一】如此相似,自不是偶然。在被挑选出来的、数百道神魂锻造身体的过程中,居然极其罕见的、发生了事故。轰然爆炸中,所有剩余的生命原料以及神魂,尽皆融合在了一起。
Lei ignored her and gently extracted the strange object within her body as he felt it.
"The situation here is... strange," the little girl thought to herself. After pondering for a long time, she realized that although she couldn't be certain of what exactly had happened, there was no one watching them now.
Derivation Jade did not generate any urge to run away; instead, she happily settled down and began resting peacefully.
It wasn't clear how much time passed, but suddenly, a figure appeared before her. The person gently tapped on the wooden table with their fingers.
The little girl jolted awake from her dream, quickly wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth as she stared wide-eyed at the newcomer. She was no longer in a state of sleep.
"Are you the new guardian?" Derivation Jade tentatively asked.
Lei smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, but not entirely."
Derivation Jade puffed out her cheeks and said disdainfully, "I hate riddles like you."
She then turned to ignore Lei and started calculating something with her fingers. Her large eyes looked up at the huge character ball above them.
