“ yī yǒu pò zhàn , biàn jǐn zhuī měng dǎ , bù sǐ bù xiū 。”
“一有破绽,便紧追猛打,不死不休。”
"One day, I will see the complete heaven of Dao."
“ ruò shì bù chéng , zé zàn xiān tuì qù , jī xù lì liàng ……”
“若事不成,则暂先退去,积蓄力量……”
"There will be such a day."
lǐ bù rén huí yì zhe zì shēn gāng gāng gēn dào yān zhī cháo duì zhì shí de xì wēi gǎn shòu 。
李不仁回忆着自身刚刚跟道湮之潮对峙时的细微感受。
Beyond glimpsing the path of hunger in the hungry pillar, Li Fan could vaguely see the past life of the Hungry Immortal. However, due to its unenlightened state and all memories being covered by the path of hunger, these images were like hidden under a veil of Dao.
jiù xiàng bào yǔ lái lín qián , shì jiān zhǒng zhǒng shēng wù dū huì yǒu bù tóng chéng dù de chá jué 。 duì dào yān zhī cháo bī jìn de yù gǎn , yě sì hū shēn cáng yú shēng líng de běn néng zhī zhōng 。
就像暴雨来临前,世间种种生物都会有不同程度的察觉。对道湮之潮逼近的预感,也似乎深藏于生灵的本能之中。
Without destroying the Hungry Pillar, Li Fan could only gradually uncover it bit by bit. In addition to resisting the path of hunger, he also had to struggle against the Hungry Immortal's own resistance.
zhí zhì dà cháo xiāo tuì hòu xǔ jiǔ , lǐ bù rén cái gǎn jué xīn zhōng de yì yàng gǎn cái wán quán xiāo sàn 。
直至大潮消退后许久,李不仁才感觉心中的异样感才完全消散。
The Hungry Immortal fiercely resisted his gaze, even more so than when she fought with Li Buren earlier.
yōu yōu huí guò shén lái , tā kàn xiàng le cǐ kè zhì àn xīng hǎi zhōng yì lì zhe de nà gēn “ tiān zhù ”。
幽幽回过神来,他看向了此刻至暗星海中屹立着的那根“天柱”。
"Should I have known this from the start!"
gēn liǎng kuài yuán shǐ zhī gǔ dié jiā hòu suǒ xíng chéng de cán yuán duàn bì bù tóng , yǎn qián de zhī zhù , kě shì zhēn zhēn zhèng zhèng yī wèi zhèng dào wú míng zhě suǒ huà 。
跟两块原始之骨叠加后所形成的残垣断壁不同,眼前的支柱,可是真真正正一位证道无名者所化。
Li Fan coldly snorted and did not retreat but advanced further. He broke through the protection of the path of hunger and saw a fragment of her past life.
bàn suí zhe zhè gēn wú míng tiān zhù de chū xiàn , fǎng fú tiān kōng dōu biàn dé gèng jiā gāo yuǎn le 。
伴随着这根无名天柱的出现,仿佛天空都变得更加高远了。
Upon observation, it seemed to be during the Hungry Immortal's childhood before she became an Immortal. The Hungry Immortal was born in the heavenly realm rather than ascending from the mortal world. She lived as a possession of some True Immortal, known as a celestial servant.
tóng shí yě biàn dé gèng jiā de “ ān quán ”。
同时也变得更加的“安全”。
Despite being called a servant, she had never seen her so-called 'master'. In this heavenly realm with infinite resources, they did not need to pay tribute to their master. The Hungry Immortal heard that her master was naturally introverted and preferred solitude. They were created and bestowed upon the master but he never inquired about them.
xīn zhōng wú xíng de yā yì qíng xù xiāo mǐ bú jiàn , wǎn ruò lái dào le chuán wén zhōng de “ xiān jiè ”。
心中无形的压抑情绪消弭不见,宛若来到了传闻中的“仙界”。
He merely placed them on his fiefdom.
“ gēn néng dòng yòng wú xiàn hǎi néng yuán de zhēn zhèng xiān jiè , zì rán hái shì bǐ bù liǎo 。 dàn néng yòng yī fāng xiān yù lái chēng hū , yě bù wèi guò le 。”
“跟能动用无限海能源的真正仙界,自然还是比不了。但能用一方仙域来称呼,也不为过了。”
Having such a 'master' was undoubtedly a blessing for celestial servants, as they lived freely with their true immortal masters protecting them from any worries.
tiān gāo dì jiǒng , yú tiān dì jiān xiǎn huà de dà dào dōu biàn dé gèng jiā qīng xī 。 gèng zhòng yào de shì , zhè piàn gāo qiáng nèi de zhì àn xīng hǎi , yǐ jīng xiān hòu huì jù le shǒu qiū gōng xū yǐng 、 yuán shǐ zhī gǔ 、 jī xiān tiān zhù zhè sān yàng 。
天高地迥,于天地间显化的大道都变得更加清晰。更重要的是,这片高墙内的至暗星海,已经先后汇聚了守丘公虚影、原始之骨、饥仙天柱这三样。
However, this carefree life did not last long. One day, she witnessed the apocalyptic Daoyan disaster in her hometown, the Eternal Echoing Immortal Realm.
chú le shǒu qiū xū yǐng shì zhěng gè zuò yòng zài gāo qiáng nèi de suǒ yǒu shí yàn kōng jiān de zhī wài , lìng wài liǎng yàng zé shì zhì àn xīng hǎi dú zhàn 。
除了守丘虚影是整个作用在高墙内的所有实验空间的之外,另外两样则是至暗星海独占。
The True Immortal's domain, her homeland, was destroyed instantly by the terrifying calamity. If it were not for the master appearing at the last moment to save them, she would have perished in that disaster.
měi yī yàng de chū xiàn , dōu jiāng zhè piàn xīng hǎi zhī “ shì ”, wú xíng zhōng bá gāo 。
每一样的出现,都将这片星海之“势”,无形中拔高。
"Indifference and freedom..."
sān zhě qí bèi , biàn shì jiāng zhì àn xīng hǎi tuō jǔ zhì le zàn shí kě yǐ fǔ kàn xià fāng dào yān dà cháo de dì bù 。
三者齐备,便是将至暗星海托举至了暂时可以俯瞰下方道湮大潮的地步。
"Hmph!"
“ shēng huó zài cǐ jiè yù zhōng , qí shēn zhī shì běn jiù yuǎn chāo qí tā dì fāng 。 jiǎn ér yán zhī , jiù shì gè gè dōu tiān fù yì bǐng , xún xiān qiú dào de hǎo miáo zi 。 zài jiā shàng yòu yuán shì dào yān xǐ lǐ hòu de xìng cún dì , zài zhè zhǒng xiān tiān tiáo jiàn xià néng gòu xiū xíng de , běn jiù shì tiān zī zòng héng zhī bèi ……”
“生活在此界域中,其身之势本就远超其他地方。简而言之,就是各个都天赋异禀,寻仙求道的好苗子。再加上又原是道湮洗礼后的幸存地,在这种先天条件下能够修行的,本就是天资纵横之辈……”
The Hungry Immortal only remembered her master coldly snorting as he gazed at the destruction of his realm before vanishing.
lǐ bù rén méi tóu wēi wēi yī áng :“ zhì àn xīng hǎi , jiù hǎo sì tài gǔ xiū xiān jiè chuán wén zhōng de shèng dì 、 dào chǎng 。 xiān bù lùn shí lì rú hé , měi yí gè cóng zhōng zǒu chū de , dōu bì dìng yǒu zhe jīng tiān dòng dì de xiū xíng tiān fù 。”
李不仁眉头微微一昂:“至暗星海,就好似太古修仙界传闻中的圣地、道场。先不论实力如何,每一个从中走出的,都必定有着惊天动地的修行天赋。”
After this, she never saw her master again. It was then that she finally learned her master's name: "Wu Wei".
“ ruò shì xiān lù shàng wèi duàn jué , bìng qiě yě méi yǒu dēng xiān tái zhí shǒu xiān guān zuò suì de huà 。 kǒng pà jǔ jiè fēi shēng , yě dōu bú shì nán shì 。”
“若是仙路尚未断绝,并且也没有登仙台值守仙官作祟的话。恐怕举界飞升,也都不是难事。”
When Li Fan glimpsed these two words in the Hungry Immortal's memory, it felt like touching something forbidden, causing a strong resistance from the Hungry Immortal and even the Hungry Pillar itself to tremble.
“ kě xī le ……”
“可惜了……”
Li Fan's consciousness was expelled due to this powerful rejection. He did not push further for now, deciding to let the Hungry Immortal calm down first.
“ xiàn zài , yě zhǐ yǒu zuò wéi miè shì dà cháo zhōng de yì yú gāo dì 、 yí yè piān zhōu le 。”
“现在,也只有作为灭世大潮中的一隅高地、一叶扁舟了。”
"Immortal Wu Wei..."
sān zhǒng pì měi wú míng zhēn xiān de lì liàng gòng jù yī chù , yě wéi yǒu lǐ fán tōng guò bù duàn lún huí 、 shōu jí xìn xī , cái néng wán chéng móu huà 。
三种媲美无名真仙的力量共聚一处,也唯有李凡通过不断轮回、收集信息,才能完成谋划。
He looked solemn as he recalled what he saw in her memory. Although it was not as composed and elegant as the Southern Sage, the scale of the Daoyan disaster was much smaller than that which would engulf the entire heavenly realm.
kě yǐ shuō , xiàn zài de zhì àn xīng hǎi , kě yǐ hào chēng zhěng gè 【 yuán chū 】 kě néng xìng zhōng zuì wèi ān quán de qū yù 。
可以说,现在的至暗星海,可以号称整个【原初】可能性中最为安全的区域。
But that was still a Daoyan calamity! Li Fan clearly understood its terror after his recent encounter with it.
shèn zhì jí biàn zhěng tiáo kě néng xìng bèi dào yān dà cháo suǒ yān mò , zhì àn xīng hǎi dōu néng zuò wéi yī fāng gāo dì , miǎn qiǎng jiān chí yī duàn shí jiān 。
甚至即便整条可能性被道湮大潮所淹没,至暗星海都能作为一方高地,勉强坚持一段时间。
"Being able to save his servants during such a calamity and successfully escape."
ér jiāng zhì àn xīng hǎi shì zuò lǎo cháo de lǐ fán , zì rán yù fā xīn ān 。 yǒu zhǒng shēn chù zhǒng zhǒng yán mì fáng hù xià de mò shì ān quán wū zhōng de gǎn jué 。
而将至暗星海视作老巢的李凡,自然愈发心安。有种身处种种严密防护下的末世安全屋中的感觉。
"This Immortal Wu Wei is not weak. The memory of the young Hungry Immortal is somewhat hazy, but I wonder if he was in the Unenlightened Realm."
rèn píng wū wài bīng fēng wàn lǐ , zhuó làng tāo tiān 。
任凭屋外冰封万里,浊浪滔天。
Li Fan had this doubt because those who had once been unenlightened all possessed an odd trait: they merged with Dao and stood alone amidst heaven and earth.
wǒ zì kuī rán bù dòng !
我自岿然不动!
However, Immortal Wu Wei did not give Li Fan that impression.
lǐ fán běn zūn xīn qíng shū chàng de tóng shí , fēn shēn lǐ bù rén zé shì hěn kuài cóng zhè zhǒng mǎn zú qíng xù zhōng tuō lí chū lái , máng zhe cè suàn zhè cì jī xiān huà zhù hòu dài lái de jù tǐ shōu huò 。
李凡本尊心情舒畅的同时,分身李不仁则是很快从这种满足情绪中脱离出来,忙着测算这次饥仙化柱后带来的具体收获。
But how could one resist a Daoyan calamity without being in the Unenlightened Realm?
“ yuán běn wǒ néng wú tiáo jiàn 、 wú fù zuò yòng diào yòng de , shì yī yòu sān fēn zhī yī de 【 yuán shǐ 】 zhī gǔ lì liàng 。”
“原本我能无条件、无副作用调用的,是一又三分之一的【元始】之骨力量。”
"Still due to merit... interesting."
“ ér zhèn yā le jī xiān hòu ……”
“而镇压了饥仙后……”
Thinking of other figures from past heavenly realms who had either perished or fled far away during such disasters, Li Fan felt some inexplicable emotions.
“ suǒ de dào de bìng fēi shì xiāng dāng yú wán quán de yī zūn wú míng zhēn xiān lì liàng , ér shì xū jiǎn qù shàng yī rèn jī xiān de cán yú 。”
“所得到的并非是相当于完全的一尊无名真仙力量,而是需减去上一任饥仙的残余。”
"It's just an era of decline."
“ yuē děng yú èr yòu èr fēn zhī yī de yuán shǐ zhī gǔ 。”
“约等于二又二分之一的元始之骨。”
It was clear that the possibilities where the heavenly immortals escaped were much more vibrant and colorful than the current "Primordial" possibility.
dà zhì wán chéng le liàng huà de cè suàn 。
大致完成了量化的测算。
"Fortunately, we have already confirmed that in the Primordial possibility, those who disappeared may still exist in other possibilities, not forever beyond my reach."
zhè ge jié guǒ dào yě méi yǒu tài chū hū lǐ fán de yì liào zhī wài 。
这个结果倒也没有太出乎李凡的意料之外。
Recently, figures like Southern Sage, Primordial, Wu Wei, etc., made Li Fan feel as if he had glimpsed the heavens and people beyond. His thoughts became lively with a sense of excitement.
yuán shǐ zhī gǔ suī qiáng , shè jí dào tiān dì wàn wù zhī chū de chū shǐ dà dào , dàn bì jìng yě zhǐ shèng xià le liǎng kuài cán gǔ 。 ér fēi shì wán quán tǐ 。
元始之骨虽强,涉及到天地万物之初的初始大道,但毕竟也只剩下了两块残骨。而非是完全体。
It was akin to discovering two cultivators during his old age after exploring the entire Great Dark Empire. It was like finding hidden maps and characters in a game he had been playing for a long time, naturally stirring up an instinctive desire to explore and seek more.
zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià , hái néng jī hū gēn chū zhèng wú míng shí de jī xiān lì liàng xiāng dāng 。 zú yǐ shuō míng tā quán shèng shí qī de kě bù le 。
这种情况下,还能几乎跟初证无名时的饥仙力量相当。足以说明祂全盛时期的可怖了。
"Though I am only at the half-immortal realm now, there will come a day when I traverse possibilities and see such wonders."
“ cóng jī xiān zhī qián zhàn dòu zhōng de biǎo xiàn lái kàn , miàn duì shǒu qiū xū yǐng , dōu réng yǒu tūn tiān yǐn hǎi de yī zhàn zhī lì 。 zòng shǐ chū zhèng , tā zài wú míng zhēn xiān zhōng , yě jué duì bù shǔ yú ruò zhě 。 ér wǒ rú jīn , yuē néng zì yóu dòng yòng xiāng dāng yú liǎng zūn wú míng zhēn xiān qiáng zhě de lì liàng ……”
“从饥仙之前战斗中的表现来看,面对守丘虚影,都仍有吞天饮海的一战之力。纵使初证,她在无名真仙中,也绝对不属于弱者。而我如今,约能自由动用相当于两尊无名真仙强者的力量……”
"In times of great turmoil, true heroes are revealed. In disasters that destroy the world, true heroes stand out."
“ zhè piàn xīng kōng zhōng , jī hū shì dàng zhēn méi yǒu duì shǒu le 。”
“这片星空中,几乎是当真没有对手了。”
The immortals in other possibilities might be even more spectacular than what he saw in the Primordial possibility.
suī rán wán quán shì jiè yòng de shǒu qiū xū yǐng zhī lì , què bìng bù fáng ài lǐ fán xīn zhōng de měi měi zī wèi 。
虽然完全是借用的守丘虚影之力,却并不妨碍李凡心中的美美滋味。
"Haha..."
“ xiān jiè pò miè , zhū xiān táo dùn 。 rú cǐ shí lì , jī hū jiù yì wèi zhe wú dí 。”
“仙界破灭,诸仙逃遁。如此实力,几乎就意味着无敌。”
Li Fan thought to himself.
“ zhǐ kě xī jú xiàn yú gāo qiáng fù jìn 。”
“只可惜局限于高墙附近。”
Then his thoughts settled back on Li Buren's body.
“ kuàng qiě , wǒ hái néng rú fǎ páo zhì , zài cì xī yǐn 、 zhèn yā qí tā wú míng zhēn xiān , gèng jìn yí bù kāi fā shǒu qiū xū yǐng zhī lì 。 shàng xiàn , jiù shì nà wǔ dào shǒu qiū xū yǐng , jǐn wèi wǒ suǒ yòng !”
“况且,我还能如法炮制,再次吸引、镇压其他无名真仙,更进一步开发守丘虚影之力。上限,就是那五道守丘虚影,尽为我所用!”
After a calculation and adjustment, he could now slightly control the Southern Sage's power.
“ nà kě shì néng gòu dǐ yù xiān jiè pò miè shí hòu de tāo tiān dào yān de lì liàng ……”
“那可是能够抵御仙界破灭时候的滔天道湮的力量……”
Naturally, the first target was the Heavenly Capital Great Mage whom Li Fan considered an obstacle!
lǐ fán yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī yōu rán shén wǎng 。
李凡眼中闪过一丝悠然神往。
In one instant, Li Buren returned from the starry sea to the Xuan Huang realm, Dao Source Province.
bù guò tā yě méi yǒu bèi zhè wú yǔ lún bǐ de jù dà lì liàng suǒ mí huò le xīn shén 。
不过他也没有被这无与伦比的巨大力量所迷惑了心神。
The moment he stepped into this province, a force pushed him back.
bì jìng zhǐ shì yī shí jiè yòng , ér fēi zhēn zhèng shǔ yú tā zì jǐ de shí lì 。
毕竟只是一时借用,而非真正属于他自己的实力。
"Alas... Dao extinguished."
“ bù guò , què shì bù fáng zuò wéi wǒ zhī gōng jù 。”
“不过,却是不妨作为我之工具。”
The distant echo of the Dao's hymn suddenly sounded from above.
cǐ fān chéng gōng jiāng wú míng zhī jī xiān zhèn yā , yě cóng shì shí céng miàn yìn zhèng le lǐ fán shǒu zhōng suǒ néng diào yòng de néng liàng jiū jìng yǒu duō dà 。
此番成功将无名之饥仙镇压,也从事实层面印证了李凡手中所能调用的能量究竟有多大。
Li Buren squinted and noticed that both large and small figures seemed to want to escape.
"One day, I will see the complete heaven of Dao."
"There will be such a day."
Beyond glimpsing the path of hunger in the hungry pillar, Li Fan could vaguely see the past life of the Hungry Immortal. However, due to its unenlightened state and all memories being covered by the path of hunger, these images were like hidden under a veil of Dao.
Without destroying the Hungry Pillar, Li Fan could only gradually uncover it bit by bit. In addition to resisting the path of hunger, he also had to struggle against the Hungry Immortal's own resistance.
