lǐ fán bù dàn méi yǒu chì zé dòng shǒu de yì si ， shèn zhì shén qíng hái yǒu xiē jī dòng 。
李凡不但没有斥责动手的意思，甚至神情还有些激动。
Li Fan didn't show any signs of panic as he observed the newly enlightened Moral Sage. Instead, he looked at him with interest and asked, "So, are you more道-oriented or more德-oriented now? Is it because of 德 that you achieved enlightenment, or is it because of 道?"
“ biàn yóu shān hǎi ， jīn rì zhōng yú zhǎo dào zhì tóng dào hé zhī rén le ！”
“遍游山海，今日终于找到志同道合之人了！”
The Moral Sage shook his head. "Whether I am 道 or 德 doesn't matter. What matters is who can truly survive to the end."
shuō zhe ， lǐ fán suí shǒu dǎ chū yī dào guāng yàn 。
说着，李凡随手打出一道光焰。
"Only those who survive are true victors," he said with a solemn tone.
liè huǒ xiōng xiōng ， jiāng shēn chù kě néng xìng cán cún de yī èr ， qǐng kè diǎn rán ！
烈火汹汹，将身处可能性残存的一二，顷刻点燃！
A mighty aura rose from the Moral Sage, like a vast wind sweeping away the raging flames and the torrent of Daoian waves. Even during their conversation, his aura had been continuously expanding. Now it seemed as if he had broken through some kind of barrier, causing his aura to expand hundreds of times more than before.
yuán běn hái è yì xiāng xiàng de hé gān xiān ， dùn shí lèng zhù 。
原本还恶意相向的何干仙，顿时愣住。
The light that could devour the sea and the torrent of Daoian waves were suppressed by this saintly breath. A dazzling light rose from a corner of possibility, shaking the entire world.
“ wǒ yù qīng fù shān hǎi ， dào yǒu kě yuàn gòng fǒu ？”
“我欲倾覆山海，道友可愿共否？”
"Although you helped me achieve enlightenment, but..."
lǐ fán zhēn zhì wú bǐ de xún wèn 。
李凡真挚无比的询问。
The newly enlightened Moral Sage suddenly revealed an unfamiliar expression in his eyes as he looked at Li Fan. Without hesitation, his left palm descended like a sky倾覆, suppressing him instantly. He didn't even finish his sentence and gave Li Fan no time to react!
zuì hòu de kě néng xìng cán yú ， zài zhēn líng zhī huǒ zhōng fén miè dài jìn 。
最后的可能性残余，在真灵之火中焚灭殆尽。
At the same time, it seemed that both the Beyond and the Holy Empire, as well as some other regions of the sea, had noticed the birth of this new saint and cast their attention upon them.
dào yān làng cháo tāo tāo ， cháo zhe èr rén xí lái 。
道湮浪潮滔滔，朝着二人袭来。
The Moral Sage ignored everything else; his target was only Li Fan. "So..."
lǐ fán tóu dǐng ， yī yè gū fān gāo xuán ， dǐ yù zhù dào yān de qīng tūn 。
李凡头顶，一叶孤帆高悬，抵御住道湮的倾吞。
"You guys really are annoying saints."
ér hé gān xiān nà biān de qíng kuàng ， zé shì pǒ wèi guǐ yì le 。
而何干仙那边的情况，则是颇为诡异了。
A misty curtain enveloped Li Fan like a veil between reality and illusion. The sky倾覆 palm passed through him as if he wasn't there, unable to cause any impact on him at all.
tā de zhōu zāo hǎo sì cún zài yí gè wú xíng xuán wō ， dào yān liú tǎng qīn shí 、 zài jīng lì guò yī fān liú zhuǎn hòu ， jìng bèi dǎo xiàng shān hǎi jiān de qí tā qū yù 。
他的周遭好似存在一个无形漩涡，道湮流淌侵蚀、在经历过一番流转后，竟被导向山海间的其他区域。
The Moral Sage seemed to have anticipated this, his eyes showing an unusual expression while staring at the water curtain fog surrounding Li Fan. He opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end and instead recited a solemn chant.
zì rán yǒu wú gū kě néng xìng yīn cǐ shòu zāi ， dàn yǐ jīng tuō lí liǎo wù dào zhuàng tài de hé gān xiān ， cǐ kè nèi xīn yǐ jīng bù zài yǒu rèn hé de nèi jiù le 。
自然有无辜可能性因此受灾，但已经脱离了悟道状态的何干仙，此刻内心已经不再有任何的内疚了。
Li Fan was confined within the Moral Sage's palm, and everything he could see in his field of vision were just the sea and sky, as if they had vanished into nothingness. It was like when He Guangshen was trapped by the flames and the torrent of Daoian waves.
dào yān luàn liú zhōng ， lǐ fán gēn hé gān xiān duì lì ér shì 。
道湮乱流中，李凡跟何干仙对立而视。
What a cycle!
“ qīng fù shān hǎi ？” hé gān xiān zǐ xì pǐn wèi zhè sì gè zì 。
“倾覆山海？”何干仙仔细品味这四个字。
In Li Fan's eyes, the world was shrouded in chaos. Black and white qi emerged from all directions, swirling around him to form a vortex. The water curtain fog stirred up ripples as the vortex spun.
“ dào yān dà cháo ， hào hào dàng dàng 。 shùn zhī zé chāng ， nì zhī zé wáng ！ bǐ àn 、 shèng cháo ， bù guò yǐ luǎn jī shí zhī bèi 。 wú wàng zhēng zhá ， zhǐ zēng xiào ěr ！”
“道湮大潮，浩浩荡荡。顺之则昌，逆之则亡！彼岸、圣朝，不过以卵击石之辈。无望挣扎，止增笑耳！”
"Is this...the power of a saint?"
“ bù rú shùn yìng dà shì ， miè shān hǎi 、 guī shén xīng 。 dài dào rì hòu zhì xù chóng jiàn ， nǐ wǒ huò kě yīn gōng fēng shèng ！”
“不如顺应大势，灭山海、归神星。待到日后秩序重建，你我或可因功封圣！”
"Not much at all!"
“ dào yǒu yǐ wéi rán fǒu ？” lǐ fán kuáng rè wú bǐ de shuō dào 。
“道友以为然否？”李凡狂热无比的说道。
Li Fan managed a difficult smile through the misty veil that covered his body, making it almost transparent.
shān hǎi zhī zhōng ， sì hū xiàn rù le sǐ yì bān de jì jìng 。
山海之中，似乎陷入了死一般的寂静。
After reincarnating nearly thirty times in the White Moon Bathing Cycle, Li Fan wasn't idle. Each time he truly understood the transformation between true and false more deeply.
wéi yǒu xiōng yǒng de dào yān làng cháo ， jìng mò de tūn shì zhe wú gū mò míng bèi bō jí de kě néng xìng 。
唯有汹涌的道湮浪潮，静默的吞噬着无辜莫名被波及的可能性。
"True becomes false when false is made true."
“ shén me lā jī ……”
“什么垃圾……”
Li Fan's understanding of these seven words had already matured to some extent. With this accumulation over twenty-eight lifetimes, he had reached a qualitative leap.
mò mò níng wàng zhe lǐ fán ， bù jiǔ hòu ， hé gān xiān jū rán shuō chū le zhè me yī jù píng jià 。
默默凝望着李凡，不久后，何干仙居然说出了这么一句评价。
The water curtain fog surrounding him was his defense against the transformation between truth and falsehood. Under its cover, Li Fan felt as if he were in a state of true and false reality. Even a saint couldn't harm him at all!
“ sǐ ！”
“死！”
Before, Li Fan hadn't pushed this technique to such an extent; the water curtain could only last for three breaths. But after witnessing the Moral Sage's enlightenment with his own eyes, inspiration like fireworks ignited in his mind, bursting forth fiercely.
sì hū shì lǎn de gēn lǐ fán fèi huà ， hé gān xiān yáo yáo cháo zhe lǐ fán ， shēn shǒu yī zhuā 。
似乎是懒得跟李凡废话，何干仙遥遥朝着李凡，伸手一抓。
Especially when he saw He Guangshen and Wu Mian仙 in their undetermined states of 道 and 德, it gave Li Fan a new insight.
bù jǐn jǐn shì zhōu zāo dào yān 、 nǎi zhì lǐ fán shì fàng de zhēn líng zhī huǒ shòu dào yǐng xiǎng ， xíng chéng le rú tóng xuán wō jiā suǒ de jìn gù 。 jiù lián lǐ fán de xīn zhōng ， yě zài zhè qǐng kè jiān shǎn xiàn guò le zì jǐ guò wǎng de suǒ zuò suǒ wéi 。
不仅仅是周遭道湮、乃至李凡释放的真灵之火受到影响，形成了如同漩涡枷锁的禁锢。就连李凡的心中，也在这顷刻间闪现过了自己过往的所作所为。
True and false, 道 and 德. There seemed to be some similarity between them.
miè xuán huáng 、 miè zhì àn xīng hǎi 、 huǐ gāo qiáng 、 miè shuò xīng hǎi 、 miè yuán chū 、 diǎn rán shān hǎi ……
灭玄黄、灭至暗星海、毁高墙、灭朔星海、灭原初、点燃山海……
Li Fan suddenly understood the connection, and this allowed him to create this water curtain fog as an outer garment.
zào jiù de zāi è guī mó ， zhú jiàn kuò dà 。
造就的灾厄规模，逐渐扩大。
It was precisely because of this technique that Li Fan could remain calm even when he witnessed the birth of a saint without immediately reverting to truth.
zài zāi jié zhōng shì qù de shēng líng shù liàng ， yě suí zhī zhǐ shù jí zēng zhǎng 。
在灾劫中逝去的生灵数量，也随之指数级增长。
Before the nine shadowy figures of the sages, Li Fan had no resistance. He had experienced firsthand the power of the Beyond's sages and thus believed that the newly enlightened Moral Sage was weaker than true sages but on par with them in terms of rank.
yuán běn zhǐ shì yī lián chuàn de shù zì ， cǐ kè què yǎn huà chū le yī zhāng zhāng jù tǐ de miàn róng 。 fèn nù páo xiāo zhe ， zài lǐ fán xīn dǐ yǒng xiàn 。
原本只是一连串的数字，此刻却衍化出了一张张具体的面容。愤怒咆哮着，在李凡心底涌现。
Without the protection of the truth and falsehood powers, Li Fan's transcendental strength would have been insignificant before him, like ants with no chance to resist.
shì shì yuàn hún suǒ mìng ！
似是怨魂索命！
But now...
miàn duì zhè zì jǐ shǒu xià wú shù wáng hún ， ruò shì lǐ fán de nèi xīn yǒu fēn háo de nèi jiù 。 biàn bì huì shòu dào yǐng xiǎng ， xīn shén zhèn dàng nǎi zhì shī shǒu ， zuì hòu bèi zhè xiē yǎn huà yuàn líng suǒ tūn shì 。
面对这自己手下无数亡魂，若是李凡的内心有分毫的内疚。便必会受到影响，心神震荡乃至失守，最后被这些衍化怨灵所吞噬。
Even though using the truth and falsehood power came at a terrible cost—his existence gradually fading away—it was enough for him to withstand the Moral Sage's suppression.
dàn ……
但……
Before the water curtain fog dissipated, Li Fan's situation seemed precarious, but in reality, he was as steady as a mountain!
lǐ fán cóng shǐ zhì zhōng ， dōu shì lěng mò wú bǐ de kàn zhe zhè xiē tū rán mào chū de wú shù yuàn líng 。 nèi xīn méi yǒu rèn hé bō dòng 。
李凡从始至终，都是冷漠无比的看着这些突然冒出的无数怨灵。内心没有任何波动。
From the depths of the sea, beams of light appeared. Their aura didn't seem weaker than that of the newly enlightened Moral Sage. His bodyguarding misty veil of truth and falsehood was about to be completely exhausted.
shèn zhì yǎn shén zhōng hái yǒu xiē yí wèn 。
甚至眼神中还有些疑问。
"Revert to truth!"
sì hū zhè xiē sàng mìng de yuàn hún ， gēn tā méi yǒu yī sī yī háo de guān xì ！
似乎这些丧命的怨魂，跟他没有一丝一毫的关系！
Li Fan looked at the Moral Sage outside the giant black-and-white vortex and silently repeated these words in his heart.
Li Fan didn't show any signs of panic as he observed the newly enlightened Moral Sage. Instead, he looked at him with interest and asked, "So, are you more道-oriented or more德-oriented now? Is it because of 德 that you achieved enlightenment, or is it because of 道?"
