hǎo sì jiàn dào le shén me jí wéi kǒng bù de tiān dí ， mò shā yīn yún shùn shí jiān jù liè dǒu dòng bù tíng ， xiǎng yào yuǎn lí lǐ fán shǒu zhōng de wú shù xuán huáng xiān jiè dié yǐng 。
好似见到了什么极为恐怖的天敌，墨杀阴云瞬时间剧烈抖动不停，想要远离李凡手中的无数玄黄仙界叠影。
It seemed like the True Virtue had suffered some damage and was in a deep sleep. "I wonder if there's any way to accelerate its awakening, other than waiting for it to slowly regain consciousness."
dàn què bèi lǐ fán sǐ sǐ è zhù ， jìn tuì bù dé 。
但却被李凡死死扼住，进退不得。
The only thing that could make the True Virtue desire to consume something besides the Eternal Remnant were the unique relics left behind by Sun Piaomiao. And the True Virtue’s yearning for the Eternal Remnant was far greater than any of Sun Piaomiao's relics.
lǐ fán shǒu zhōng de ， kě jué bú shì shén me jiǎn dān de huàn yǐng 。 ér shì 【 zuò tiān jué 】 fǎn kuì zhī lì suǒ xíng chéng de zhēn zhèng xuán huáng xiān jiè lì liàng 。 bié kàn xiàn zài shì xū huàn zhuàng tài ， yí niàn zhī jiān ， biàn kě yóu xū zhuǎn shí 。
李凡手中的，可绝不是什么简单的幻影。而是【坐天决】反馈之力所形成的真正玄黄仙界力量。别看现在是虚幻状态，一念之间，便可由虚转实。
"Every existence in the Darkest Star Sea, including all traces of the Eternal Remnant, has already been consumed by the True Virtue. But to nurture and bring forth a new Eternal Remnant is not something that can be achieved overnight."
wú shù xiàn zhì de lì liàng dié jiā ， mò shā yīn yún zài zěn me tè shū ， yě bèi zhì de fú fú tiē tiē 。
无数限制的力量叠加，墨杀阴云再怎么特殊，也被治的服服帖帖。
"Actually, there’s an immediate feast outside the Darkest Star Sea."
hēi yún gǔn dòng fān téng jiān ， jìng zhēn de jiāng xiān qián bèi tūn shì de róng hé duàn zhù gěi “ tǔ ” le chū lái ！
黑云滚动翻腾间，竟真的将先前被吞噬的融合断柱给“吐”了出来！
Thinking this, Li Fan's gaze passed over the wall, through the Frost Star Sea, and towards the depths of the star sea where Light Wu Star Sea was located.
lǐ fán xì xì gǎn wù zhe qí zhōng yùn hán de dào zé ， gēn bèi tūn shì zhī qián ， bìng wú chā bié 。
李凡细细感悟着其中蕴含的道则，跟被吞噬之前，并无差别。
"There is a transcendental being's remains in the Light Wu Star Sea," he said. "And within that remains, there still exists its path to transcendence: the Solitary Sailing on the Mountains and Seas."
“ yuán běn de mò shā ， suī yǒu jìn hū yān miè yī qiè de pò huài xìng lì liàng 。 dàn huǐ miè de guò chéng ， què shì bù kě nì de 。 gēn běn wú fǎ zuò dào xiàng zhè yàng de zì yóu zhuǎn huàn 。”
“原本的墨杀，虽有近乎湮灭一切的破坏性力量。但毁灭的过程，却是不可逆的。根本无法做到像这样的自由转换。”
The Eternal Remnant was essentially theprototypeof a transcendental path. In his previous life, with the help of Purple Robe and Cheng Dao, Li Fan had seen this path clearly and sensed the True Virtue's agitation.
“ shòu dào cháng shēng dà dào lì liàng yǐng xiǎng de mò shā ， gèng shì hé yòng lái dǎ zào wàn xiāng dào wǎng 。”
“受到长生大道力量影响的墨杀，更适合用来打造万相道网。”
However, at that time, Purple Robe was still around, so the True Virtue maintained considerable restraint.
dàn zhǐ jiāng sì dà tiān zhù fù yuán ， lǐ fán bìng méi yǒu zhí jiē jiāng xuán huáng xiān jiè de mò shā yuán tóu gěi tūn shì ， ér shì jiāng qí fàng huí 。
弹指将四大天柱复原，李凡并没有直接将玄黄仙界的墨杀源头给吞噬，而是将其放回。
"Once the Frost Star Sea is settled, I might be able to take those remains. However, with the help of the Heavenly Dao Path in my previous life, this time it will be difficult for me alone."
jiè zhù xuán huáng jiè zhè céng lián xì ， kāi shǐ xì xì gǎn wù tuì biàn hòu de mò shā yīn yún qǐ lái 。
借助玄黄界这层联系，开始细细感悟蜕变后的墨杀阴云起来。
The Light Wu Star Sea's strength should not be underestimated. Even if there weren't hundreds of True Sages, the Disciplinary Projected Pearl was far beyond what Li Fan could withstand now.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， lǐ fán tǐ nèi ， nà wú shù xuán huáng dié yǐng zhī zhōng ， kāi shǐ yǒu diǎn diǎn mò sè tóng bù chū xiàn 。
与此同时，李凡体内，那无数玄黄叠影之中，开始有点点墨色同步出现。
"However, if the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Path becomes established, we might still have a chance to fight."
zhèng shì lǐ fán lì yòng jiǎ yì zhēn shén tōng ， zhí jiē duì wú shù xū yǐng xuán huáng jiè jìn xíng gǎi zào ， bù duàn diāo zhuó ， shǐ qí wú xiàn jiē jìn xiàn shí zhōng de xuán huáng xiān jiè 。 yǐ cǐ cuī shēng chū suǒ xū yào de wú qióng mò shā yīn yún 。
正是李凡利用假亦真神通，直接对无数虚影玄黄界进行改造，不断雕琢，使其无限接近现实中的玄黄仙界。以此催生出所需要的无穷墨杀阴云。
Li Fan temporarily set aside his thoughts and focused on building the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm. The new True Virtue's remains would require considerable time to nurture.
mò shā zuò wéi xiān jiè shí yàn chǎng gěi chū de zuì zhōng jiù shì dá àn zhī yī ， zì rán yǒu qí xuán qí tè xìng 。 cóng mǒu zhǒng yì yì shàng lái shuō ， shí zé shì chén shì jiān shēng líng ， yù yǐ chén shì jiān zhī wù ， mó nǐ shān hǎi xiāng róng de jié guǒ zào wù 。
墨杀作为仙界实验场给出的最终救世答案之一，自然有其玄奇特性。从某种意义上来说，实则是尘世间生灵，欲以尘世间之物，模拟山海相融的结果造物。
Li Fan didn't idle; his divine sense swept across the entire Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm, instantly locating his target.
rú guǒ shuō dào yān zhī jié shì tūn mò yī qiè de dà cháo ， nà me mò shā jiù shì rén zào de 、 kě yǐ kòng zhì de làng huā 。
如果说道湮之劫是吞没一切的大潮，那么墨杀就是人造的、可以控制的浪花。
In this timeline of 8,000 years ago, apart from the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm, there were still other surviving cultivation realms in the Darkest Star Sea. However, as the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm expanded and grew, these realms were all swallowed and integrated into the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm.
wú lùn shì yòng lái duì kàng dào yān dà cháo ， yì huò zhě jiè jī róng rù ， dōu néng qǐ dào bì nàn táo xiōng zhī xiào 。
无论是用来对抗道湮大潮，亦或者借机融入，都能起到避难逃凶之效。
Li Fan wasn't particularly concerned about the new world souls that had joined.
zhǐ cóng wèi gé lái kàn ， dài biǎo shān hǎi xiāng róng zhī lì de mò shā ， shèn zhì hái zài chén shì jiān de wú míng zhēn xiān zhī shàng 。 ér zài shān hǎi de jī chǔ shàng ， yòu jiā rù le cháng shēng dà dào ……
只从位格来看，代表山海相融之力的墨杀，甚至还在尘世间的无名真仙之上。而在山海的基础上，又加入了长生大道……
However, some discoveries within the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm solved Li Fan's long-standing doubts.
“ huò xǔ shì liǎng dào xiāng róng zhè yī tè shū shǔ xìng jiā chí de yuán gù ， mò shā yīn yún měi wán chéng yī cì tūn shì - zhuǎn huà de guò chéng ， jiù xiāng dāng yú xiū shì de yī cì dùn wù 。”
“或许是两道相融这一特殊属性加持的缘故，墨杀阴云每完成一次吞噬-转化的过程，就相当于修士的一次顿悟。”
He appeared in a deep, dark valley. The clouds and mists swirled around, with strange sounds echoing from time to time.
“ suī shuō hái méi yǒu dá dào wán quán jiě xī de dì bù ， dàn zhǐ yào duō fǎn fù jǐ cì 。”
“虽说还没有达到完全解析的地步，但只要多反复几次。”
Below the valley, he saw Qin Tang, Taiyi, Hanhai, and other Heaven Law Realm cultivators.
lǐ fán mī zhuó yǎn ， kàn zhe zhǎng zhōng nà piàn bù duàn péng zhàng de yīn yún ， tǐ huì qí gāng gāng tūn shì yòu tǔ chū de 、 sì dà tiān zhù de xiáng xì dào zé gǎn wù 。
李凡眯着眼，看着掌中那片不断膨胀的阴云，体会其刚刚吞噬又吐出的、四大天柱的详细道则感悟。
They had arrived at this newly formed valley along with the swallowing of the Heaven Law Realm.
“ shàng yī shì ， wèi le jiě xī dào jì tóu yǐng zhū nèi suǒ yùn hán de shén tōng ， wǒ gēn chéng dào hé lì ， yǐ gāo qiáng - shuò xīng hǎi suǒ yǒu shēng líng wèi jī ， shī zhǎn le 【 hái dào jì huà 】。 ràng zhè xīng hǎi zhōng de wú shù tiān jiāo shēng líng ， dài wéi wù dào 。”
“上一世，为了解析道纪投影珠内所蕴含的神通，我跟承道合力，以高墙-朔星海所有生灵为基，施展了【还道计划】。让这星海中的无数天骄生灵，代为悟道。”
Their situation was even worse than that of the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm cultivators. The Heaven Law Sages who carried out the will of heaven were now like ordinary people, stripped of all their authority and reduced to starting from scratch.
“ bǐ qǐ wǒ yī rén kǔ sī ， xiào lǜ hé zhǐ gāo le wàn bèi 。 dàn xiàn zài ……”
“比起我一人苦思，效率何止高了万倍。但现在……”
They had deeply integrated themselves into the path of Heaven Law, making it extremely difficult for them to break free and forge a new path.
“ ruò shì zhǎng wò le zhè xīn de mò shā lì liàng ， jiù yòu bù xū yào zhè yún yún zhòng shēng xiàng zhù le 。 mò shā yīn yún guò chù ， sān qiān dà dào zì xiǎn ！” lǐ fán mù guāng shǎn dòng ， xiǎng dào le gèng duō 。
“若是掌握了这新的墨杀力量，就又不需要这芸芸众生相助了。墨杀阴云过处，三千大道自显！”李凡目光闪动，想到了更多。
Their progress was even slower than that of ordinary cultivators.
“ zhè hái zhǐ shì liǎng dào xiāng róng 。 ruò shì zài tiān yī dào de huà ……”
“这还只是两道相融。若是再添一道的话……”
"However, if they could understand the corresponding paths in the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm..."
yě jǐn jǐn shì niàn xiǎng 。 zhǐ shì gāng chū xiàn miáo tou ， biàn bèi lǐ fán zhǔ dòng pū miè le 。 liǎng dào xiāng róng zhī mò shā ， tā hái méi néng wán quán zhǎng kòng 。 zài kāi yī dào ， zhǐ huì dài lái méi bì yào de shī kòng fēng xiǎn 。
也仅仅是念想。只是刚出现苗头，便被李凡主动扑灭了。两道相融之墨杀，他还没能完全掌控。再开一道，只会带来没必要的失控风险。
"They would be able to ascend directly."
“ wǒ suī zhǔ dòng cóng sān dào xiāng róng de jìng jiè zhōng tuō shēn ér chū ， dàn què bìng bù yì wèi zhe wǒ yào fàng qì 。”
“我虽主动从三道相融的境界中脱身而出，但却并不意味着我要放弃。”
Li Fan didn't show any sympathy towards his old acquaintances. In his eyes, all beings—whether from the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm, Heaven Law Realm, or other cultivation realms—were essentially the same.
“ gèng hé kuàng ， wǒ yě zhǐ shì zàn shí jiāng yǐn huàn yā zhì bà le 。 bù jiǔ de wèi lái ， wǒ zhōng jiū shì yào chóng xīn miàn duì zhè ge wèn tí de 。”
“更何况，我也只是暂时将隐患压制罢了。不久的未来，我终究是要重新面对这个问题的。”
If there was a difference...
“ yǐ mò shā tàn lù ， bù shī wèi yī zhǒng jué jiā de shì tàn fāng fǎ 。”
“以墨杀探路，不失为一种绝佳的试探方法。”
Without anyone noticing, Li Fan entered a temple within the Heaven Law Realm.
shǒu zhōng chóng dié xuán huáng yǐng xiàng huǎn huǎn xiāo shī bú jiàn ， lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng de wàn qiān sī xù què méi yǒu tíng xià ：“ wǒ qīn zì xià chǎng ， gēn mò shā shí yàn de gēn běn qū bié jiù shì ， mò shā bìng méi yǒu zhēn zhèng cān yù jìn shān hǎi dà dào de xiāng róng guò chéng zhōng 。 zhǐ shì yǐ qí zì shēn tè xìng ， jìn xíng de 【 mó fǎng 】 bà le 。”
手中重叠玄黄影像缓缓消失不见，李凡脑海中的万千思绪却没有停下：“我亲自下场，跟墨杀实验的根本区别就是，墨杀并没有真正参与进山海大道的相融过程中。只是以其自身特性，进行的【模仿】罢了。”
He could sense the presence of the Heaven Law Sages who had gathered here. And below the altar, there lay a sleeping body—the Body of the Healer!
“ suī rán shàng bù qīng chǔ ， xī rì xiān jiè zhòng xiān jiū jìng shì rú hé zhǎo dào rú cǐ qí tè de mò shā yuán xíng de ， què bù fáng ài wǒ jiā yǐ lì yòng 。”
“虽然尚不清楚，昔日仙界众仙究竟是如何找到如此奇特的墨杀原型的，却不妨碍我加以利用。”
It looked exactly like the Healer he had seen before with his white hair and benevolent appearance.
qí shí ， duì yú mò shā yuán xíng de lái lì ， lǐ fán xīn zhōng yǐ jīng yǐn yǐn yǒu suǒ cāi cè 。
其实，对于墨杀原型的来历，李凡心中已经隐隐有所猜测。
Li Fan carefully examined it: "The consciousness has completely fallen into silence, like an empty shell."
“ yào me ， shì gēn shān hǎi 、 hái zhēn 、 cháng shēng dà dào tóng gé de cún zài ， yào me jiù shì néng gòu míng wù shān hǎi dà dào de jué shì qiáng zhě cán liú 。 gēn jù mò shā yì zhí yǐ lái suǒ biǎo xiàn de zhǒng zhǒng tè xìng ， wǒ gèng qīng xiàng yú hòu zhě 。”
“要么，是跟山海、还真、长生大道同格的存在，要么就是能够明悟山海大道的绝世强者残留。根据墨杀一直以来所表现的种种特性，我更倾向于后者。”
"But life energy still exists. This is because the consciousness was transferred to Xuanyuan Tuo's body through the Heaven Soul Reincarnation technique."
“ ruò shì 【 hái zhēn 】 hái zài ， huò xǔ wǒ kě yǐ zài fā dòng hái zhēn shí ， zài 【 dào yǐn 】 zhuàng tài xià ， yī kuī qí xū shí 。”
“若是【还真】还在，或许我可以在发动还真时，在【道隐】状态下，一窥其虚实。”
"The vitality of this body is sustained by the collective effort of the Heaven Law Sages. It will only awaken in extreme situations."
“ kě xī le 。” lǐ fán xīn zhōng àn tàn 。
“可惜了。”李凡心中暗叹。
"Such as when all the sages fall and the Heaven Law Realm perishes!"
dào yǐn zhuàng tài ， zhǐ de shì fā dòng hái zhēn shí ， lǐ fán zhōu zāo de hēi bái fàn wéi nèi 。 chú le lǐ fán zhī wài ， qí tā yī qiè shì wù dōu chù zài 【 jì zhēn yòu jiǎ 】 de dié jiā zhuàng tài 。
道隐状态，指的是发动还真时，李凡周遭的黑白范围内。除了李凡之外，其他一切事物都处在【既真又假】的叠加状态。
"I see, that Healer I saw in the Illusory Sky Palace was this body. No wonder the consciousness of the Healer who controlled Xuanyuan Tuo could sense the tragedy in the Heaven Law Realm," Li Fan nodded, his doubts dispelled.
lǐ fán kě yǐ zài yǒu xiàn de shí jiān nèi ， jìn qíng de gǎn wù 。
李凡可以在有限的时间内，尽情的感悟。
Previously, he had seen a scene where another Healer rushed to the Sky Palace after it was massacred by "the Healer" in the Illusory Sky Palace memory. Later, he learned that this Healer who had slaughtered the Heaven Law Realm was actually Su Bai controlled by other possibilities. But why did the later Healer appear in the Heaven Law Realm?
céng jīng lǐ fán jiù zài yī dào tiān dì zhī pò de nèi hé zhōng ， kàn dào le qí céng jīng guī shǔ de wú míng zhēn xiān de shēn yǐng 。
曾经李凡就在一道天地之魄的内核中，看到了其曾经归属的无名真仙的身影。
From a timeline perspective, at this time, the Healer should still be trapped within Xuanyuan Tuo's body and not exist in the Heaven Law Realm.
mò shā suī rán xuán qí fēi cháng ， dàn lǐ fán què yě yǒu zì xìn ， qí dìng rán yī jiù zài 【 hái zhēn 】 zhī xià 。 ruò shì lǐ fán yī jiù zhǎng wò zhe hái zhēn ， jiě xī qǐ lái ， dìng huì shì bàn gōng bèi 。
墨杀虽然玄奇非常，但李凡却也有自信，其定然依旧在【还真】之下。若是李凡依旧掌握着还真，解析起来，定会事半功倍。
"This makes sense."
“ hái zhēn a hái zhēn ， bù zhī dào ， jiū jìng hé shí nǐ cái néng fù yuán 。” lǐ fán bù yóu rú cǐ xiǎng dào 。
“还真啊还真，不知道，究竟何时你才能复原。”李凡不由如此想道。
"The reincarnated soul was only part of the Healer, while his physical form remained in the Heaven Law Realm. With the Heaven Law Sages massacred by the evil Su Bai, the body was forced to awaken, hence seeing the tragic state of the Heaven Law Realm."
zài lái dào chū shǐ máo diǎn bā qiān duō nián qián shí jiān jié diǎn de zhè duàn rì zi lǐ ， lǐ fán yě céng bù shí huàn xiǎng guò ， zhè huò xǔ shì hái zhēn wèi le jiě jué zì jǐ duì tā de yī lài wèn tí ， yì huò zhě shì wèi le ràng zì jǐ zhēn zhèng zǒu chū héng dù zhī lù de kǎo yàn 。
在来到初始锚点八千多年前时间节点的这段日子里，李凡也曾不时幻想过，这或许是还真为了解决自己对它的依赖问题，亦或者是为了让自己真正走出横渡之路的考验。
"Thus, the consciousness within the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm knew about the tragedy that befell the Heaven Law Realm. Acting recklessly, it seized control of Xuanyuan Tuo’s body in order to return to the Heaven Law Realm."
bù guò měi měi zài chàng xiǎng zhī yú ， lǐ fán dōu bù yóu kǔ xiào 。
不过每每在畅想之余，李凡都不由苦笑。
"After returning to the Heaven Law Realm, the Healer's consciousness returned to its original form and regained its familiar appearance. Despite the destruction of his hometown, the Healer did not give up but devised a method to return from the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm."
shì shàng nǎ lǐ yòu yǒu nà me duō xìng shì 。
世上哪里又有那么多幸事。
"Xuanyuan Tuo and the Teaching Sage were thus crucial to this plan."
hái zhēn dà dǐ shì zhēn de zài sān dào xiāng róng zhōng ， shòu sǔn chén shuì le 。
还真大抵是真的在三道相融中，受损沉睡了。
"But alone, he couldn't fully control the transmission. So he found assistance from the Demonic Immortal on the Yellow Emperor’s Immortal Boat."
“ jiù shì bù zhī ， chú le děng dài qí màn màn sū xǐng zhī wài ， hái cún bù cún zài 、 jiā sù qí xǐng lái de bàn fǎ 。”
“就是不知，除了等待其慢慢苏醒之外，还存不存在、加速其醒来的办法。”
Past events in the long river of time were reconstructed by Li Fan.
néng lìng hái zhēn chǎn shēng guò tūn shí yù wàng de ， chú le yǒng héng yí niàn zhī wài ， jiù shì sūn piāo miǎo suǒ liú de qí tè yí wù le 。 ér hái zhēn duì yǒng héng yí niàn de kě qiú chéng dù ， hái yuǎn zài sūn piāo miǎo yí wù zhī shàng 。
能令还真产生过吞食欲望的，除了永恒遗念之外，就是孙缥缈所留的奇特遗物了。而还真对永恒遗念的渴求程度，还远在孙缥缈遗物之上。
Although it held little practical significance for him now, it did help resolve his previous doubts.
“ zhì àn xīng hǎi nèi ， suǒ yǒu cún zài yǒng héng yí niàn ， nǎi zhì qí zhǒng zi ， hái zhēn dōu yǐ jīng tūn fú guò yī biàn le 。 ér xiǎng yào yùn yù cuī shēng yǒng héng yí niàn ， yě bìng fēi yī shí yī shì zhī gōng 。 gèng bù kě qiǎng qiú 。”
“至暗星海内，所有存在永恒遗念，乃至其种子，还真都已经吞服过一遍了。而想要孕育催生永恒遗念，也并非一时一世之功。更不可强求。”
With a calm expression and no pity, Li Fan released the Healer's consciousness back into its body.
“ qí shí ， zhì àn xīng hǎi zhī wài ， xiàn zài jiù yǒu xiàn chéng de yī dùn dà cān 。”
“其实，至暗星海之外，现在就有现成的一顿大餐。”
Then...
lǐ fán zhè bān xiǎng zhe ， shì xiàn yuè guò gāo qiáng ， chuān guò shuò xīng hǎi 。 kàn xiàng le xīng hǎi shēn chù ， guāng wú xīng hǎi suǒ zài 。
李凡这般想着，视线越过高墙，穿过朔星海。看向了星海深处，光吾星海所在。
"True is false when false is true."
“ guāng wú xīng hǎi ， yǒu yī jù chāo tuō qiáng zhě de yí tuì 。”
“光吾星海，有一具超脱强者的遗蜕。”
A blade that was both true and false struck the Healer’s body!
“ nà jù yí tuì zhōng réng rán bǎo liú zhe qí shēng qián de chāo tuō dào lù ： shān hǎi gū fān ……”
“那具遗蜕中仍然保留着其生前的超脱道路：山海孤帆……”
Li Fan had come all this way for more than just to restore the Healer. "The Black Healer outside the wall has unpredictable strength," he thought, "I will test my hypothesis now."
yǒng héng yí niàn ， shí zé jiù shì chāo tuō dào lù de chú xíng 。
永恒遗念，实则就是超脱道路的雏形。
With a calm expression and no pity, Li Fan reduced the Healer's vitality with each strike.
shàng yī shì zài zǐ yī gēn chéng dào de bāng zhù xià ， lǐ fán yǒu xìng kàn qīng chǔ zhè piàn shān hǎi gū fān de shí hòu ， jiù yǐn yǐn chá jué dào le hái zhēn de jì dòng 。
上一世在紫衣跟承道的帮助下，李凡有幸看清楚这片山海孤帆的时候，就隐隐察觉到了还真的悸动。
Although the Healer still looked youthful despite his age, in his slumber, he seemed to have lost some mysterious aura.
zhǐ bù guò dāng shí zǐ yī réng zài ， hái zhēn bǎo chí zhe xiāng dāng de kè zhì 。
只不过当时紫衣仍在，还真保持着相当的克制。
By the time Li Fan stopped, the Healer appeared less mysterious and more like an ordinary kind neighbor!
“ dài shuò xīng hǎi shì bì ， huò kě shùn shǒu jiāng nà chāo tuō qiáng zhě yí tuì qǔ lái 。 zhǐ shì shàng yī shì yǒu zǐ yī tōng tiān dà dào kāi lù ， zhè yī shì guāng kào wǒ zì jǐ ， pà shì yǒu xiē kùn nán 。”
“待朔星海事毕，或可顺手将那超脱强者遗蜕取来。只是上一世有紫衣通天大道开路，这一世光靠我自己，怕是有些困难。”
"The Healer and Su Bai are both hunting other possibilities of me for the unity of all selves."
guāng wú xīng hǎi de shí lì jué bù róng xiǎo qù 。
光吾星海的实力绝不容小觑。
"Originally, each possibility was indistinguishable. But now..."
bù shuō jǐ bǎi míng duō míng zhēn xiān ， guāng shì nà dào jì tóu yǐng zhū ， jiù yuǎn fēi xiàn zài de lǐ fán suǒ néng dǐ dǎng de 。
不说几百名多名真仙，光是那道纪投影珠，就远非现在的李凡所能抵挡的。
Li Fan smiled slightly. "Among countless elixirs, one poison pill has been mixed in. Do you still have a chance to achieve enlightenment?"
“ bù guò ， ruò shì xuán huáng xiān jiè shì chéng ， yě wèi bì méi yǒu yī zhàn zhī lì 。”
“不过，若是玄黄仙界势成，也未必没有一战之力。”
This idea had long been on Li Fan's mind but hadn't had the opportunity to implement it.
lǐ fán zàn qiě jiāng niàn tou yā xià ， zhù yì lì chóng xīn jí zhōng zài dǎ zào xuán huáng xiān jiè zhī shàng 。
李凡暂且将念头压下，注意力重新集中在打造玄黄仙界之上。
Now that the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm was established, he decided to do so now.
xīn de mò shā yīn yún ， yě xū yào xiāng dāng zhǎng shí jiān de màn màn yùn yù 。
新的墨杀阴云，也需要相当长时间的慢慢孕育。
Of course, he wouldn’t release the Healer outside the wall just yet.
lǐ fán yě méi yǒu xián zhe 。 tā de shén shí ， héng sǎo le zhěng gè xuán huáng xiān jiè ， shùn xī jiān zhǎo dào le xiǎng yào de mù biāo 。
李凡也没有闲着。他的神识，横扫了整个玄黄仙界，瞬息间找到了想要的目标。
Only when he could match the evil Healer in combat would he let him out of the wall and attract the evil Healer's attention.
bā qiān duō nián qián de zhè ge shí jiān jié diǎn ， chú le xuán huáng jiè zhī wài ， zhì àn xīng hǎi zhōng réng rán hái yǒu qí tā xiū xiān jiè xìng cún 。 zhǐ bù guò suí zhe xuán huáng jiè de shēng huá péng zhàng ， zhè xiē xiū xiān jiè quán bù dōu bèi tūn shì ， róng hé jìn rù le xuán huáng xiān jiè zhī zhōng 。
八千多年前的这个时间节点，除了玄黄界之外，至暗星海中仍然还有其他修仙界幸存。只不过随着玄黄界的升华膨胀，这些修仙界全部都被吞噬，融合进入了玄黄仙界之中。
"Then perhaps I can learn more about the Beyond."

对于这些有幸新加入的世界生灵，李凡并不怎么在意。
Just thinking about it made Li Fan extremely eager to see the expression on that evil Healer’s face when he saw this drastically reduced version of himself within the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm.

My monthly vote ranking has dropped out of 100, too tragic. Please give me some monthly votes for relief, please!
It seemed like the True Virtue had suffered some damage and was in a deep sleep. "I wonder if there's any way to accelerate its awakening, other than waiting for it to slowly regain consciousness."
The only thing that could make the True Virtue desire to consume something besides the Eternal Remnant were the unique relics left behind by Sun Piaomiao. And the True Virtue’s yearning for the Eternal Remnant was far greater than any of Sun Piaomiao's relics.
"Every existence in the Darkest Star Sea, including all traces of the Eternal Remnant, has already been consumed by the True Virtue. But to nurture and bring forth a new Eternal Remnant is not something that can be achieved overnight."
"Actually, there’s an immediate feast outside the Darkest Star Sea."
Thinking this, Li Fan's gaze passed over the wall, through the Frost Star Sea, and towards the depths of the star sea where Light Wu Star Sea was located.
"There is a transcendental being's remains in the Light Wu Star Sea," he said. "And within that remains, there still exists its path to transcendence: the Solitary Sailing on the Mountains and Seas."
The Eternal Remnant was essentially theprototypeof a transcendental path. In his previous life, with the help of Purple Robe and Cheng Dao, Li Fan had seen this path clearly and sensed the True Virtue's agitation.
However, at that time, Purple Robe was still around, so the True Virtue maintained considerable restraint.
"Once the Frost Star Sea is settled, I might be able to take those remains. However, with the help of the Heavenly Dao Path in my previous life, this time it will be difficult for me alone."
The Light Wu Star Sea's strength should not be underestimated. Even if there weren't hundreds of True Sages, the Disciplinary Projected Pearl was far beyond what Li Fan could withstand now.
"However, if the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Path becomes established, we might still have a chance to fight."
Li Fan temporarily set aside his thoughts and focused on building the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm. The new True Virtue's remains would require considerable time to nurture.
Li Fan didn't idle; his divine sense swept across the entire Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm, instantly locating his target.
In this timeline of 8,000 years ago, apart from the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm, there were still other surviving cultivation realms in the Darkest Star Sea. However, as the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm expanded and grew, these realms were all swallowed and integrated into the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm.
Li Fan wasn't particularly concerned about the new world souls that had joined.
However, some discoveries within the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm solved Li Fan's long-standing doubts.
He appeared in a deep, dark valley. The clouds and mists swirled around, with strange sounds echoing from time to time.
Below the valley, he saw Qin Tang, Taiyi, Hanhai, and other Heaven Law Realm cultivators.
They had arrived at this newly formed valley along with the swallowing of the Heaven Law Realm.
Their situation was even worse than that of the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm cultivators. The Heaven Law Sages who carried out the will of heaven were now like ordinary people, stripped of all their authority and reduced to starting from scratch.
They had deeply integrated themselves into the path of Heaven Law, making it extremely difficult for them to break free and forge a new path.
Their progress was even slower than that of ordinary cultivators.
"However, if they could understand the corresponding paths in the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm..."
"They would be able to ascend directly."
Li Fan didn't show any sympathy towards his old acquaintances. In his eyes, all beings—whether from the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm, Heaven Law Realm, or other cultivation realms—were essentially the same.
If there was a difference...
Without anyone noticing, Li Fan entered a temple within the Heaven Law Realm.
He could sense the presence of the Heaven Law Sages who had gathered here. And below the altar, there lay a sleeping body—the Body of the Healer!
It looked exactly like the Healer he had seen before with his white hair and benevolent appearance.
Li Fan carefully examined it: "The consciousness has completely fallen into silence, like an empty shell."
"But life energy still exists. This is because the consciousness was transferred to Xuanyuan Tuo's body through the Heaven Soul Reincarnation technique."
"The vitality of this body is sustained by the collective effort of the Heaven Law Sages. It will only awaken in extreme situations."
"Such as when all the sages fall and the Heaven Law Realm perishes!"
"I see, that Healer I saw in the Illusory Sky Palace was this body. No wonder the consciousness of the Healer who controlled Xuanyuan Tuo could sense the tragedy in the Heaven Law Realm," Li Fan nodded, his doubts dispelled.
Previously, he had seen a scene where another Healer rushed to the Sky Palace after it was massacred by "the Healer" in the Illusory Sky Palace memory. Later, he learned that this Healer who had slaughtered the Heaven Law Realm was actually Su Bai controlled by other possibilities. But why did the later Healer appear in the Heaven Law Realm?
From a timeline perspective, at this time, the Healer should still be trapped within Xuanyuan Tuo's body and not exist in the Heaven Law Realm.
"This makes sense."
"The reincarnated soul was only part of the Healer, while his physical form remained in the Heaven Law Realm. With the Heaven Law Sages massacred by the evil Su Bai, the body was forced to awaken, hence seeing the tragic state of the Heaven Law Realm."
"Thus, the consciousness within the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm knew about the tragedy that befell the Heaven Law Realm. Acting recklessly, it seized control of Xuanyuan Tuo’s body in order to return to the Heaven Law Realm."
"After returning to the Heaven Law Realm, the Healer's consciousness returned to its original form and regained its familiar appearance. Despite the destruction of his hometown, the Healer did not give up but devised a method to return from the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Dao Realm."
"Xuanyuan Tuo and the Teaching Sage were thus crucial to this plan."
"But alone, he couldn't fully control the transmission. So he found assistance from the Demonic Immortal on the Yellow Emperor’s Immortal Boat."
Past events in the long river of time were reconstructed by Li Fan.
Although it held little practical significance for him now, it did help resolve his previous doubts.
With a calm expression and no pity, Li Fan released the Healer's consciousness back into its body.
Then...
"True is false when false is true."
A blade that was both true and false struck the Healer’s body!
Li Fan had come all this way for more than just to restore the Healer. "The Black Healer outside the wall has unpredictable strength," he thought, "I will test my hypothesis now."
With a calm expression and no pity, Li Fan reduced the Healer's vitality with each strike.
Although the Healer still looked youthful despite his age, in his slumber, he seemed to have lost some mysterious aura.
By the time Li Fan stopped, the Healer appeared less mysterious and more like an ordinary kind neighbor!
"The Healer and Su Bai are both hunting other possibilities of me for the unity of all selves."
"Originally, each possibility was indistinguishable. But now..."
Li Fan smiled slightly. "Among countless elixirs, one poison pill has been mixed in. Do you still have a chance to achieve enlightenment?"
This idea had long been on Li Fan's mind but hadn't had the opportunity to implement it.
Now that the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm was established, he decided to do so now.
Of course, he wouldn’t release the Healer outside the wall just yet.
Only when he could match the evil Healer in combat would he let him out of the wall and attract the evil Healer's attention.
"Then perhaps I can learn more about the Beyond."
Just thinking about it made Li Fan extremely eager to see the expression on that evil Healer’s face when he saw this drastically reduced version of himself within the Yellow Emperor’s Heavenly Dao Realm.
