“ wǒ lì jīng bǎi shì lún huí ， líng xìng yī jiù bù jiǎn 。 jí biàn wú míng zhēn xiān ， kǒng pà yě wú fǎ gēn wǒ xiāng tí bìng lùn 。” míng wù zì shēn de tè shū hòu ， lǐ fán xīn zhōng bù jīn yǒng xiàn zhèn zhèn xīn xǐ 。
“我历经百世轮回，灵性依旧不减。即便无名真仙，恐怕也无法跟我相提并论。”明悟自身的特殊后，李凡心中不禁涌现阵阵欣喜。
"I've sensed something beyond my current perception, so I didn't notice it at first."
tā yù yǔ hái zhēn zài dù gōu tōng ， què rú shí chén dà hǎi ， zài méi yǒu dé dào rèn hé de huí yìng 。
他欲与还真再度沟通，却如石沉大海，再没有得到任何的回应。
"Only by observing and focusing can one truly see their existence."
xǔ jiǔ zhī hòu ， lǐ fán cái zài xīn qíng jī dàng zhōng píng fù xià lái 。
许久之后，李凡才在心情激荡中平复下来。
[The Four Words: True Sage of the Nameless] suddenly flashed in Li Ren's mind. This scene was incredibly similar to when Li Fan had observed the nameless true sage being used as a living pillar to build the cosmic web on the White Star Sea!
zì rán ér rán de ， gèng dà de yí wèn bù yóu zài tā de nèi xīn fú xiàn 。
自然而然的，更大的疑问不由在他的内心浮现。
And the material for the Celestial Pillar of the Heavenly Realm in the heavenly realm was made from the bones of the nameless true sages, which also had some resistance against the Dharma Annihilation. The presence of nameless true sages as building materials inside the wall wasn't so unbelievable.
“ wǒ líng xìng zhī chún hòu ， huò xǔ fàng yǎn zhěng gè chén shì jiān ， dōu shì jí qí hǎn jiàn 、 huò zhě shuō dú yī wú èr de 。 zào chéng rú cǐ tè xìng de yuán yīn ， jiū jìng ……”
“我灵性之醇厚，或许放眼整个尘世间，都是极其罕见、或者说独一无二的。造成如此特性的原因，究竟……”
But Li Ren instinctively sensed that there were differences between these five illusory figures and both the Celestial Pillar of the Southern Heavenly Realm and the nameless true sage's leg bones.
lǐ fán hěn zhí jiē de ， jiù lián xiǎng dào le zì jǐ “ chuān yuè zhě ” de shēn fèn 。
李凡很直接的，就联想到了自己“穿越者”的身份。
"The ability to manifest pillars from Dharma, this should be correct."
dàn jiū jìng shì bú shì ， yǐ jí wèi hé “ chuān yuè zhě ” de líng xìng rú cǐ yǔ zhòng bù tóng ， ruò shì zài yǒu qí tā de “ chuān yuè zhě ”、 huì bú huì yě gēn tā chéng xiàn tóng děng de tè zhì ……
但究竟是不是，以及为何“穿越者”的灵性如此与众不同，若是再有其他的“穿越者”、会不会也跟他呈现同等的特质……
"Key point is..."
shèn zhì ， hái yǒu gēng shēn céng cì de 。
甚至，还有更深层次的。
Li Ren frowned slightly: "Are they all manifestations of the same path?"
“ hái zhēn ” fù yú lǐ fán shēn shàng de “ mù dì ”， jiū jìng yòu shì shén me 。
“还真”附于李凡身上的“目的”，究竟又是什么。
For a true sage to ascend to the realm of the nameless, one must merge their body with the Dao.
zhè zhǒng zhǒng wèn tí què bú shì lǐ fán xiàn zài néng tàn jiū de le 。
这种种问题却不是李凡现在能探究的了。
In the vast expanse of the world, there are 3,000 paths of Dharma, each unique and unrepeatable. Therefore, it was impossible for two or more nameless true sages to follow the same path.
jiāng fān yǒng de sī cháo quán dōu zhèn yā yú nèi xīn zuì shēn chù ， lǐ fán àn dào ：“ zuì qǐ mǎ ， xiàn zài wǒ gēn hái zhēn de guān xì ， biǎo miàn shàng biàn dé gèng jiā mì qiè le yī qiè 。 zì cóng tā yú wú xiàn hǎi guī lái hòu ， biàn dé gèng jiā ‘ huó pō ’ le ， zhè shì hǎo shì 。 néng zhǐ diǎn wǒ yī cì ， jiù néng yǒu dì èr cì 。 ér hái zhēn de zhǐ diǎn ……”
将翻涌的思潮全都镇压于内心最深处，李凡暗道：“最起码，现在我跟还真的关系，表面上变得更加密切了一切。自从祂于无限海归来后，变得更加‘活泼’了，这是好事。能指点我一次，就能有第二次。而还真的指点……”
Two couldn't do it, let alone five!
“ gèng shèng zhí miàn dà dào ér wù a ！”
“更胜直面大道而悟啊！”
"Are they manifestations from different possibilities?" Li Ren's heart leapt with shock, but he quickly dismissed this judgment.
běn zūn yǒu le zhì dì shōu huò ， ér fēn shēn kuǐ lěi lǐ bù rén què bìng méi yǒu yīn wèi xiāng guān fā xiàn ér yǒu rèn hé de qíng xù biàn dòng 。
本尊有了质的收获，而分身傀儡李不仁却并没有因为相关发现而有任何的情绪变动。
He had seen firsthand the power of a being that could span multiple possibilities.
tā de shǐ mìng ， jiù shì diào chá qīng chǔ gāo qiáng zhōng zhī shì 。 xiàn zài yī jiù mí wù chóng chóng ， yòu rú hé néng ràng tā qīng sōng ？
他的使命，就是调查清楚高墙中之事。现在依旧迷雾重重，又如何能让他轻松？
Although these five illusory figures were powerful, their strength was still far inferior to that entity.
“ gēn jù xiàn zài de xiàn suǒ kě yǐ duàn dìng ， zhè lǐ yuán běn yīng dāng shǔ yú xiān jiè shí yàn chǎng de mǒu yī bù fèn shè shī 。 shí yàn de mù dì ， jiù shì wèi le zhǎo dào néng gòu duì kàng dào yān de bàn fǎ 。 zhè shí yàn chǎng zì rán duì fáng yù dào yān ， yǒu zhe yí dìng de shǒu duàn 。”
“根据现在的线索可以断定，这里原本应当属于仙界实验场的某一部分设施。实验的目的，就是为了找到能够对抗道湮的办法。这实验场自然对防御道湮，有着一定的手段。”
"So, there can only be one answer."
“ suī bù zhī wèi hé yuán yīn ， zāo dào yí qì 。 tā què réng jiù zài dào yān zhī jié bào fā zhī jì ， huà zuò le gāo qiáng 。 bì miǎn shí yàn chǎng nèi wú shù xīng hǎi ， miǎn zāo chè dǐ yān miè de mìng yùn 。”
“虽不知为何原因，遭到遗弃。它却仍旧在道湮之劫爆发之际，化作了高墙。避免实验场内无数星海，免遭彻底湮灭的命运。”
"These five illusory figures are manifestations from the same nameless true sage."
“ tóng yàng ， shí yàn chǎng de shǐ mìng ， jiù zhù dìng le tā bì xū yào yōng yǒu jí qí yǐn bì de xìng zhì 。 duì nèi de fáng hù ， zhǐ xū kùn zhù shí yàn xīng hǎi zhōng de shēng líng 。 zhēn xiān jìng jiè de jìn zhì zú yǐ 。”
“同样，实验场的使命，就注定了它必须要拥有极其隐蔽的性质。对内的防护，只需困住实验星海中的生灵。真仙境界的禁制足以。”
"They aren't like the leg bones in the Celestial Pillar of the Southern Heavenly Realm, but merely his own illusory forms."
“ ér duì wài ， zé xū kǎo lǜ zhēn xiān zhī shàng 、 wú míng jìng jiè de qiáng zhě de kuī tàn 。 nán guài shuò xīng hǎi qián ruò cháng ， yǐ jí nà wèi 【 wú xiān 】， rú cǐ jiē jìn gāo qiáng 、 què fǎng fú shì ér bù jiàn 。 fēi bù wèi yě ， shí bù néng yě 。 shèn zhì néng yí dìng chéng dù píng bì qí tā kě néng xìng zhī wài de mù guāng ……”
“而对外，则需考虑真仙之上、无名境界的强者的窥探。难怪朔星海钱若常，以及那位【无仙】，如此接近高墙、却仿佛视而不见。非不为也，实不能也。甚至能一定程度屏蔽其他可能性之外的目光……”
Li Ren's heart trembled.
sūn piāo miǎo liú xià de xùn xī ， mù qián jù tǐ yì yì réng jiù bù míng 。 lǐ bù rén suǒ xìng zàn qiě bù qù guǎn tā 。
孙缥缈留下的讯息，目前具体意义仍旧不明。李不仁索性暂且不去管他。
"Can these five illusory figures manifest a wall and withstand the Dharma Annihilation?"
“ wǒ zhī suǒ yǐ huì fā xiàn gāo qiáng de qī qiāo ， shì yīn wèi xiān yù qí zi bèi gāo qiáng bǔ huò 、 píng kōng xiāo shī bú jiàn 。 jì rú cǐ ， bù rú huí guī shì qíng gēn běn yuán qǐ ， zhuī zōng nà méi qí zi rú jīn suǒ zài ……”
“我之所以会发现高墙的蹊跷，是因为仙域棋子被高墙捕获、凭空消失不见。既如此，不如回归事情根本缘起，追踪那枚棋子如今所在……”
"What realm is this?"
sūn piāo miǎo suǒ liú xiān yù qí zi ， hù yǒu gǎn yīng 。 dàn gé zhe yī dào gāo qiáng ， zhè gǎn yìng jiù bèi qiē duàn 。
孙缥缈所留仙域棋子，互有感应。但隔着一道高墙，这感应就被切断。
The five illusory figures surrounded Li Ren like stars. Their faces were indistinct, and it was impossible to tell if they were male or female. They exuded an aura akin to gods from mythology, evoking reverence.
shèn zhì lǐ bù rén shēn qū jiù shì yǐ yī méi xiān yù qí zi dǎ zào ， zài cǐ chù shí yàn shì nèi ， què réng jiù gǎn yìng bú dào zì jǐ “ tóng lèi ” de cún zài 。
甚至李不仁身躯就是以一枚仙域棋子打造，在此处实验室内，却仍旧感应不到自己“同类”的存在。
It was the natural reaction of lesser beings when facing a higher entity.
sī cǔn piàn kè hòu ， lǐ bù rén suǒ xìng zàn qiě xiān fǎn huí le zhì àn xīng hǎi 。 zhǐ liú yào wáng dǐng nà méi qí zi réng zài xuán huáng ， fáng zhǐ suì piàn pīn hé 、 xiān yù zài dù xiàn shì 。
思忖片刻后，李不仁索性暂且先返回了至暗星海。只留药王鼎那枚棋子仍在玄黄，防止碎片拼合、仙域再度现世。
"I once suspected that under the nameless true sage realm lay a sacrificial nameless true sage who used himself as a pillar to block the Dharma Annihilation from the heavenly realm."
ér hòu cóng shēn qū shàng ， fēn chū shì wǎng 、 yòu xiàng bì bǎng de dàn dàn yín sè zhī tǐ ， jiāng qí tā shèng yú suǒ yǒu qí zi ， jiè yóu dào wǎng tóu yǐng zhī lì ， quán dōu cū bào de “ chán rào 、 jì jǐn ” zài zì jǐ shēn shàng 。
而后从身躯上，分出似网、又像臂膀的淡淡银色肢体，将其他剩余所有棋子，借由道网投影之力，全都粗暴的“缠绕、系紧”在自己身上。
"But now, this nameless before me doesn't need self-sacrifice. He only needs to manifest five illusory forms to accomplish the same task..."
ér hòu měng dì cháo zhe gāo qiáng zài dù chōng zhuàng ér qù 。
而后猛地朝着高墙再度冲撞而去。
Li Ren was deeply shaken.
jìn rù gāo qiáng de shùn jiān ， lǐ bù rén jiù gǎn dào cóng wài jiè chuán lái yī gǔ jí qí páng dà de xī lì 。 zì jǐ shēn tǐ nèi de xiān yù qí zi ， bù shòu kòng zhì bān ， cháo zhe xī lì lái yuán jí sù fēi dùn 。
进入高墙的瞬间，李不仁就感到从外界传来一股极其庞大的吸力。自己身体内的仙域棋子，不受控制般，朝着吸力来源急速飞遁。
Clearly, the entity that left these five illusory figures among all the nameless true sages must be one of the strongest.
lǐ bù rén méi yǒu kàng jù zhè gǔ lì liàng ， shèn zhì shēn qū chóng xīn biàn huà wèi yuán běn qí zi mú yàng 。 gēn zhe tā de “ xiōng dì ” men yì qǐ ， fēi xiàng wèi zhī zhī chù 。
李不仁没有抗拒这股力量，甚至身躯重新变化为原本棋子模样。跟着他的“兄弟”们一起，飞向未知之处。
This type of strength was different from crossing multiple possibilities. Li Ren couldn't compare their relative power.
“ guǒ rán ， gēn yǐ chuǎng rù zhě de shēn fèn jìn rù bù tóng 。 zhè cì xíng jìng zài le bù tóng de tōng lù shàng 。”
“果然，跟以闯入者的身份进入不同。这次行径在了不同的通路上。”
But he knew they were equally awe-inspiring.
lǐ bù rén hǎo sì zài shí yàn chǎng nèi de wú shù gè fāng kuài xīng hǎi shàng fāng ， jí sù lüè guò 。 ér hòu chuān yuè le zuò wéi suǒ yǒu xīng hǎi biān jiè de dà kōng dòng 。
李不仁好似在实验场内的无数个方块星海上方，极速掠过。而后穿越了作为所有星海边界的大空洞。
"Su Bai's memory shows that even the evil Su Bai could only flee when faced with the Dharma Annihilation."
lái dào le yī chù jì shú xī ， yòu mò shēng de kōng jiān zhōng 。
来到了一处既熟悉，又陌生的空间中。
"But in my original possibility, there is a true sage who can withstand the Dharma Annihilation by manifesting his illusory form. Perhaps he chose a different path?"
shuō tā shú xī ， shì yīn wèi gēn lǐ bù rén cǐ qián qù wǎng de yuán zhù xíng dà tīng ， sì hū shì yī chù dì fāng 。 zhǐ shì wèi yú yuán zhù de zuì shàng fāng ， wèi yú dǐ duān shí de bù kě shì zhī suǒ 。
说它熟悉，是因为跟李不仁此前去往的圆柱形大厅，似乎是一处地方。只是位于圆柱的最上方，位于底端时的不可视之所。
"Where is this powerful entity now? Was it responsible for setting up this experiment from the start?"
dào le zhè lǐ ， xiān yù qí zi suǒ shōu dào de xī lì jiù yǐ jīng xiāo shī le 。
到了这里，仙域棋子所收到的吸力就已经消失了。
Li Ren's mind was filled with questions.
qí zi xíng tài de lǐ bù rén ， guān chá sì zhōu 。
棋子形态的李不仁，观察四周。
"If more such entities existed, I might not find the Dharma Annihilation so formidable."
fā xiàn zhī qián nà méi tū wù shī zōng de 、 yǐ jí zhè cì xié dài de ， gòng jì shí yī méi qí zi ， quán dōu jìng jìng piāo fú zài liè 。
发现之前那枚突兀失踪的、以及这次携带的，共计十一枚棋子，全都静静漂浮在列。
Looking at the five illusory figures before him, Li Ren thought to himself: "These nameless true sages can manifest pillars and withstand the Dharma Annihilation. Their illusory forms should be extremely close to the essence of the Dao itself."
qí zhōng liù méi ， yǐ jīng mò míng hé yī 。 gēn lǐ fán céng jīng suǒ jiàn yī yàng ， chéng xiàn qī cǎi mú yàng 。 ér qí yú wǔ méi ， yě shì jǐn jǐn tuán jù zài yì qǐ 。 děng dài zhe lǐ bù rén zhè zuì hòu yī méi de jiā rù 。
其中六枚，已经莫名合一。跟李凡曾经所见一样，呈现七彩模样。而其余五枚，也是紧紧团聚在一起。等待着李不仁这最后一枚的加入。
But they were right in front of him, yet he couldn't perceive or understand the path they represented.
cóng bù yuǎn chù de qí zi zhōng ， lǐ bù rén gǎn shòu dào le cuī cù 、 huí guī zhī yì 。 dàn huò xǔ shì yīn wèi shǎo le zuì guān jiàn de yào wáng zhēn dǐng nà yī méi de yuán gù ， yì huò zhě cǐ chù nǎi shì shí yàn chǎng zhēn zhèng hé xīn qū yù suǒ zài 、 yǒu mǒu zhǒng wèi zhī de xiàn zhì yuán yīn 。
从不远处的棋子中，李不仁感受到了催促、回归之意。但或许是因为少了最关键的药王真鼎那一枚的缘故，亦或者此处乃是实验场真正核心区域所在、有某种未知的限制原因。
It was as if this path wasn't within his current understanding of the Dao!
lǐ bù rén gǎn dào ， qí zi duì zì jǐ de xī yǐn lì ， hái méi dào wú fǎ kòng zhì de dì bù 。
李不仁感到，棋子对自己的吸引力，还没到无法控制的地步。
Seeing but not seeing, hearing but not listening, knowing but not comprehending!
wéi chí zhù zì shēn wěn dìng ， tā dǎ liàng sì zhōu 。
维持住自身稳定，他打量四周。
"Either this entity is from another possibility. The Dharma he manifests doesn't exist in my original possibility. To me, it's a completely unfamiliar existence, so I can't grasp or perceive it."
zhè yī dǎ liàng ， cái měng dì fā xiàn ， jìng yǒu wǔ dào mó hú de shēn yǐng 、 zài tā zhōu wéi jìng jìng chù lì 。
这一打量，才猛地发现，竟有五道模糊的身影、在他周围静静矗立。
"Or..."
lǐ bù rén xīn shén shùn jiān jǐn bēng ， shēn xíng bào tuì ， jìn rù dào zhàn dòu zī tài 。
李不仁心神瞬间紧绷，身形暴退，进入到战斗姿态。
"This entity has reached the realm of transformation. He carries his own path and transcends the constraints of this world to walk alone!"
dàn tā què fā xiàn ， wú lùn tā rú hé de kuài sù yí dòng ， zhè wǔ dào shēn yǐng shǐ zhōng huán rào zhe tā 。
但他却发现，无论他如何的快速移动，这五道身影始终环绕着他。
Li Ren had previously speculated that nameless true sages would detach from their paths after merging with Dharma and then depart.
jiāng tā wéi zài zhōng yāng 。
将他围在中央。
But seeing these five illusory figures, he truly witnessed a nameless true sage who had transcended the boundaries of existence.
wú fǎ jiē jìn ， yě wú fǎ yuǎn lí 。 wǔ dào xū yǐng zhī yú lǐ bù rén ， wǎn ruò qīng tiān zhī yú dì shàng shēng huó shēng líng 。
无法接近，也无法远离。五道虚影之于李不仁，宛若青天之于地上生活生灵。
"Coming from another possibility but sacrificing himself to help repel the Dharma Annihilation. This is unlikely. He could have escaped alone."
liǎng zhě zhī jiān ， shǐ zhōng wéi chí zhe yǒng héng bù dìng de jù lí 。
两者之间，始终维持着永恒不定的距离。
"This person should be an original inhabitant of my original possibility."
hǎo zài ， zhè xiē xū yǐng sì hū bìng méi yǒu shén me gōng jī xìng 。 zhǐ shì dān chún de sǐ wù yì bān ， duì yú lǐ bù rén zhè wèi chuǎng rù zhě ， yě méi yǒu rèn hé de fǎn yìng 。
好在，这些虚影似乎并没有什么攻击性。只是单纯的死物一般，对于李不仁这位闯入者，也没有任何的反应。
Li Ren observed and attempted to use his divine consciousness to reflect on the paths represented by these five illusory forms.
lǐ bù rén xiān shè guò quán bù xiān yù qí zi ， ér hòu guān chá zhe zhè wǔ dào xū yǐng 。 què rèn le zàn shí méi yǒu wēi xiǎn 。
李不仁先摄过全部仙域棋子，而后观察着这五道虚影。确认了暂时没有危险。
But the heart mirror that could reflect the Dao of the world was empty when facing these five illusory figures.
“ yǐn yǐn chāo chū le wǒ de gǎn zhī néng lì ， gù ér dì yī shí jiān méi yǒu fā xiàn 。”
“隐隐超出了我的感知能力，故而第一时间没有发现。”
"Is this entity still in this possibility? If he has already left, would his illusory form still have such effects..."
“ zhǐ yǒu zhēn zhèng qù guān chá 、 zhù shì ， cái néng fā xiàn tā men de cún zài 。”
“只有真正去观察、注视，才能发现祂们的存在。”
"That's terrifying."
“……”
“……”
Among all the things Li Fan had seen so far, only Dharma Annihilation and the Infinite Sea were most frightening.
【 wú míng zhēn xiān 】 sì gè zì ， shà shí jiān cóng lǐ bù rén de nǎo hǎi zhōng bèng le chū lái 。 zhè yí mù ， gēn lǐ fán xiān qián zài shuò xīng hǎi kuī tàn de ， wú míng zhēn xiān bèi dàng zuò shēng zhuāng 、 jiàn zào dào wǎng de qíng jǐng hé qí xiāng sì ！
【无名真仙】四个字，霎时间从李不仁的脑海中蹦了出来。这一幕，跟李凡先前在朔星海窥探的，无名真仙被当做生桩、建造道网的情景何其相似！
And those who could counter them were only True Sage at first.
ér xiān jiè de xiān tiān zhù ， jiù shì yǐ wú míng zhēn xiān tuǐ gǔ wèi cái liào dǎ zào 。 tóng yàng jù yǒu yí dìng chéng dù de dǐ dǎng dào yān de tè xìng ， gāo qiáng nèi yě yǒu wú míng zhēn xiān wèi jiàn cái ， sì hū yě bìng fēi shì shén me nán yǐ zhì xìn zhī shì 。
而仙界的仙天柱，就是以无名真仙腿骨为材料打造。同样具有一定程度的抵挡道湮的特性，高墙内也有无名真仙为建材，似乎也并非是什么难以置信之事。
Now, another unknown entity existed.
dàn lǐ bù rén què yòu běn néng de ， gǎn dào le cǐ chù wú lùn shì gēn dào wǎng 、 yì huò zhě nán xiān tiān zhù de bù tóng 。
但李不仁却又本能的，感到了此处无论是跟道网、亦或者南仙天柱的不同。
Although weaker than True Sage, it still showed what a cultivator could achieve.
“ yǐ dào wèi zhù ， zhè shì wǔ dào xū yǐng suǒ biǎo xiàn chū lái de néng lì ， yīng gāi méi yǒu cuò 。”
“以道为柱，这是五道虚影所表现出来的能力，应该没有错。”
After failing to reflect on these illusory forms, Li Ren stopped wasting his time.
“ guān jiàn zài yú ……”
“关键在于……”
"These five illusory figures must be the core of the wall."
lǐ bù rén wēi wēi zhòu méi ：“ jìng shì tóng yī zhǒng dà dào ？”
李不仁微微皱眉：“竟是同一种大道？”
"Such an important area attracting the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma. There must be a reason, but I can't find the trigger now."
zhēn xiān yù shēng wú míng zhī jìng ， xū yǐ shēn hé dào 。
真仙欲升无名之境，需以身合道。
Li Ren could only manifest as the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma here; otherwise, he would soon be expelled.
ér tiān dì jiān ， sān qiān dà dào ， gè yǒu bù tóng 。 què jué bù cún zài chóng fù 。
而天地间，三千大道，各有不同。却绝不存在重复。
"Is it because the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma isn't fully formed?" Another thought emerged in Li Ren's mind.
suǒ yǐ ， zhè shì shàng jué bù kě néng cún zài ， yǐ xiāng tóng dào tú zhèng dào de wú míng zhēn xiān 。
所以，这世上绝不可能存在，以相同道途证道的无名真仙。
After conveying this idea to his main self,
liǎng wèi dōu bù kě néng 。
两位都不可能。
In the Yellow-White Realm, Li Fan, after much consideration, ultimately passed the True King Cauldron to his puppet.
gèng bié tí yī xià zi chū xiàn wǔ wèi le ！
更别提一下子出现五位了！
The True King Cauldron had been collected by Li Fan without disturbing Hunger Immortal. The people of the Medicine King Sect were all sent to Blissful Land for dream construction.
“ lái zì bù tóng de kě néng xìng ？” lǐ bù rén xīn zhōng yī jīng ， dàn hěn kuài ， tā jiù fǒu jué zhè ge pàn duàn 。
“来自不同的可能性？”李不仁心中一惊，但很快，他就否决这个判断。
The True King Cauldron transformed into a simple white chess piece and was reinserted at the center of the wall, where the five illusory figures resided.
néng gòu héng kuà kě néng xìng de qiáng zhě qì xī tā yě céng qīn yǎn mù dǔ 。
能够横跨可能性的强者气息他也曾亲眼目睹。
Li Fan's main self remained vigilant, ready for any moment when True Sage might appear.
yǎn qián zhè wǔ dào xū yǐng suī qiáng ， què yě xiāng chā shèn yuǎn 。
眼前这五道虚影虽强，却也相差甚远。
Li Ren prepared to reconstruct his body and transform it into a celestial realm.
“ suǒ yǐ ， dá àn zhǐ yǒu yí gè le 。”
“所以，答案只有一个了。”
But things unfolded differently from Li Fan's expectations.
“ zhè wǔ dào xū yǐng ， nǎi shì tóng yī wèi wú míng zhēn xiān suǒ huà 。”
“这五道虚影，乃是同一位无名真仙所化。”
Even with all the chess pieces in place, the celestial realm didn't manifest within this space.
“ bú shì lèi sì nán xiān tiān zhù zhōng de tuǐ gǔ nà bān de xuè ròu ， ér jǐn jǐn zhǐ shì zì shēn zhī xū yǐng 。”
“不是类似南仙天柱中的腿骨那般的血肉，而仅仅只是自身之虚影。”
Instead, an unseen force was suppressing its formation.
lǐ bù rén xīn zhōng yī zhèn 。
李不仁心中一震。
As expected by Li Ren, when the chess pieces arrived together, something changed around them.
“ yǐ wǔ dào xū yǐng ， biàn néng huà qiáng 、 chēng qǐ dào yān zhī jié ？”
“以五道虚影，便能化墙、撑起道湮之劫？”
It was as if a foreign object had fallen into water, causing ripples.
“ zhè shì shén me jìng jiè ？”
“这是什么境界？”
The faces of the five illusory figures became clearer due to these ripples.
wǔ dào xū yǐng ， rú xīng chén bān wéi rào lǐ bù rén zuǒ yòu 。 kàn bù qīng miàn róng xì jié ， shèn zhì shì nán shì nǚ dōu wú fǎ fēn biàn 。 què rú shén huà zhōng de shén líng ， lìng rén bù jīn xīn shēng sù mù 、 mó bài zhī qíng 。
五道虚影，如星辰般围绕李不仁左右。看不清面容细节，甚至是男是女都无法分辨。却如神话中的神灵，令人不禁心生肃穆、膜拜之情。
Their gazes all focused on the central chess piece.
nà shì xià wèi shēng líng ， jiàn dào shàng wèi zhě hòu ， shēn xīn běn néng huì yǒng xiàn de qíng xù 。
那是下位生灵，见到上位者后，身心本能会涌现的情绪。
It felt like the entire world was pressing down upon them.
“ wǒ céng cāi cè ， xiān xū dà dì zhī xià ， cáng zhe yī wèi xùn dào wú míng 。 yǐ zì shēn wèi zhī zhù ， dǔ zhù le lái zì xiān jiè de dào yān jié nàn 。”
“我曾猜测，仙墟大地之下，藏着一位殉道无名。以自身为支柱，堵住了来自仙界的道湮劫难。”
Li Ren's celestial pillar form began to feel strained.
“ dàn xiàn zài ， wǒ yǎn qián de zhè wèi wú míng ， wú xū zì wǒ xī shēng 。 zhǐ shì fēn huà chū wǔ dào xū yǐng ， jiù néng zuò dào tóng yàng de shì qíng ……”
“但现在，我眼前的这位无名，无需自我牺牲。只是分化出五道虚影，就能做到同样的事情……”
"Is this..."
lǐ bù rén xīn zhōng de zhèn dòng ， wú yǐ yán biǎo 。
李不仁心中的震动，无以言表。
"The chess pieces have gathered, bearing the weight of a nameless true sage. They finally caught the eye of the five illusory figures!"
"I've sensed something beyond my current perception, so I didn't notice it at first."
"Only by observing and focusing can one truly see their existence."
[The Four Words: True Sage of the Nameless] suddenly flashed in Li Ren's mind. This scene was incredibly similar to when Li Fan had observed the nameless true sage being used as a living pillar to build the cosmic web on the White Star Sea!
And the material for the Celestial Pillar of the Heavenly Realm in the heavenly realm was made from the bones of the nameless true sages, which also had some resistance against the Dharma Annihilation. The presence of nameless true sages as building materials inside the wall wasn't so unbelievable.
But Li Ren instinctively sensed that there were differences between these five illusory figures and both the Celestial Pillar of the Southern Heavenly Realm and the nameless true sage's leg bones.
"The ability to manifest pillars from Dharma, this should be correct."
"Key point is..."
Li Ren frowned slightly: "Are they all manifestations of the same path?"
For a true sage to ascend to the realm of the nameless, one must merge their body with the Dao.
In the vast expanse of the world, there are 3,000 paths of Dharma, each unique and unrepeatable. Therefore, it was impossible for two or more nameless true sages to follow the same path.
Two couldn't do it, let alone five!
"Are they manifestations from different possibilities?" Li Ren's heart leapt with shock, but he quickly dismissed this judgment.
He had seen firsthand the power of a being that could span multiple possibilities.
Although these five illusory figures were powerful, their strength was still far inferior to that entity.
"So, there can only be one answer."
"These five illusory figures are manifestations from the same nameless true sage."
"They aren't like the leg bones in the Celestial Pillar of the Southern Heavenly Realm, but merely his own illusory forms."
Li Ren's heart trembled.
"Can these five illusory figures manifest a wall and withstand the Dharma Annihilation?"
"What realm is this?"
The five illusory figures surrounded Li Ren like stars. Their faces were indistinct, and it was impossible to tell if they were male or female. They exuded an aura akin to gods from mythology, evoking reverence.
It was the natural reaction of lesser beings when facing a higher entity.
"I once suspected that under the nameless true sage realm lay a sacrificial nameless true sage who used himself as a pillar to block the Dharma Annihilation from the heavenly realm."
"But now, this nameless before me doesn't need self-sacrifice. He only needs to manifest five illusory forms to accomplish the same task..."
Li Ren was deeply shaken.
Clearly, the entity that left these five illusory figures among all the nameless true sages must be one of the strongest.
This type of strength was different from crossing multiple possibilities. Li Ren couldn't compare their relative power.
But he knew they were equally awe-inspiring.
"Su Bai's memory shows that even the evil Su Bai could only flee when faced with the Dharma Annihilation."
"But in my original possibility, there is a true sage who can withstand the Dharma Annihilation by manifesting his illusory form. Perhaps he chose a different path?"
"Where is this powerful entity now? Was it responsible for setting up this experiment from the start?"
Li Ren's mind was filled with questions.
"If more such entities existed, I might not find the Dharma Annihilation so formidable."
Looking at the five illusory figures before him, Li Ren thought to himself: "These nameless true sages can manifest pillars and withstand the Dharma Annihilation. Their illusory forms should be extremely close to the essence of the Dao itself."
But they were right in front of him, yet he couldn't perceive or understand the path they represented.
It was as if this path wasn't within his current understanding of the Dao!
Seeing but not seeing, hearing but not listening, knowing but not comprehending!
"Either this entity is from another possibility. The Dharma he manifests doesn't exist in my original possibility. To me, it's a completely unfamiliar existence, so I can't grasp or perceive it."
"Or..."
"This entity has reached the realm of transformation. He carries his own path and transcends the constraints of this world to walk alone!"
Li Ren had previously speculated that nameless true sages would detach from their paths after merging with Dharma and then depart.
But seeing these five illusory figures, he truly witnessed a nameless true sage who had transcended the boundaries of existence.
"Coming from another possibility but sacrificing himself to help repel the Dharma Annihilation. This is unlikely. He could have escaped alone."
"This person should be an original inhabitant of my original possibility."
Li Ren observed and attempted to use his divine consciousness to reflect on the paths represented by these five illusory forms.
But the heart mirror that could reflect the Dao of the world was empty when facing these five illusory figures.
"Is this entity still in this possibility? If he has already left, would his illusory form still have such effects..."
"That's terrifying."
Among all the things Li Fan had seen so far, only Dharma Annihilation and the Infinite Sea were most frightening.
And those who could counter them were only True Sage at first.
Now, another unknown entity existed.
Although weaker than True Sage, it still showed what a cultivator could achieve.
After failing to reflect on these illusory forms, Li Ren stopped wasting his time.
"These five illusory figures must be the core of the wall."
"Such an important area attracting the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma. There must be a reason, but I can't find the trigger now."
Li Ren could only manifest as the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma here; otherwise, he would soon be expelled.
"Is it because the Celestial Pillar of the Dharma isn't fully formed?" Another thought emerged in Li Ren's mind.
After conveying this idea to his main self,
In the Yellow-White Realm, Li Fan, after much consideration, ultimately passed the True King Cauldron to his puppet.
The True King Cauldron had been collected by Li Fan without disturbing Hunger Immortal. The people of the Medicine King Sect were all sent to Blissful Land for dream construction.
The True King Cauldron transformed into a simple white chess piece and was reinserted at the center of the wall, where the five illusory figures resided.
Li Fan's main self remained vigilant, ready for any moment when True Sage might appear.
Li Ren prepared to reconstruct his body and transform it into a celestial realm.
But things unfolded differently from Li Fan's expectations.
Even with all the chess pieces in place, the celestial realm didn't manifest within this space.
Instead, an unseen force was suppressing its formation.
As expected by Li Ren, when the chess pieces arrived together, something changed around them.
It was as if a foreign object had fallen into water, causing ripples.
The faces of the five illusory figures became clearer due to these ripples.
Their gazes all focused on the central chess piece.
It felt like the entire world was pressing down upon them.
Li Ren's celestial pillar form began to feel strained.
"Is this..."
"The chess pieces have gathered, bearing the weight of a nameless true sage. They finally caught the eye of the five illusory figures!"
