zài tiān xuán jìng hào rú yān hǎi de xìn xī zhōng ， líng xiào tū rán gēng xīn le shí jǐ bù zuò pǐn ， méi yǒu néng yǐn qǐ duō shǎo rén de zhù yì 。
在天玄镜浩如烟海的信息中，陵笑突然更新了十几部作品，没有能引起多少人的注意。
In the vast ocean of information in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror, Ling Xiao suddenly updated several dozen works, but they failed to draw much attention.
chú le nà xiē líng xiào běn rén de sǐ zhōng fěn chú wài 。
除了那些陵笑本人的死忠粉除外。
Except for his die-hard fans.
zài zhè ge jí xiǎo 、 bù guò zhǐ yǒu shí jǐ rén guī mó de xiǎo quān zi lǐ ， zhè yī rì fā shēng le rú xià de duì huà 。
在这个极小、不过只有十几人规模的小圈子里，这一日发生了如下的对话。
Within this tiny circle of only a few dozen people, the following conversation took place on that day:
“ zhū wèi dào yǒu ， kàn wǒ fā xiàn le shén me 。《 xiān nǚ qióng bái 》、《 wǒ hé sān shī dì de qí miào zhī lǚ 》、《 suǒ qíng lù 》……”
“诸位道友，看我发现了什么。《仙女琼白》、《我和三师弟的奇妙之旅》、《锁情箓》……”
"Dear fellow daoists, take a look at what I've discovered. *The Fairy's Jade White*, *My Journey with Third Disciple Brother*... and *Locking Emotions Scroll*."
“ yí ？ shǔ míng jū rán dōu shì líng xiào ？ mò bú shì yǒu rén jiǎ jiè míng hào wěi zuò ？”
“咦？署名居然都是陵笑？莫不是有人假借名号伪作？”
"Eh? All signed by Ling Xiao? Could it be someone is using his name to fake these works?"
“ dài lǎo fū kàn kàn …… sī ， zhè wén fēng 、 zhè bǐ lì ， hái yǒu zhè shú xī de shēn lín qí jìng gǎn ……”
“待老夫看看……嘶，这文风、这笔力，还有这熟悉的身临其境感……”
"Let me check... Sigh, this writing style, this power, and the familiar sense of being right there... And every chapter has detailed illustrations."
“ hái yǒu měi zhāng xíng shén jiān bèi de chā huà 。”
“还有每章形神兼备的插画。”
"The most important thing is that the main character's partners are anything but restricted!"
“ zuì zhòng yào de shì ， zhǔ jué jiāo hé duì xiàng de bǎi wú jìn jì ！”
“最重要的是，主角交合对象的百无禁忌！”
"Humans, immortals, objects, beasts... These must be Ling Xiao's true works without a doubt!"
“ rén 、 xiān 、 wù 、 shòu …… jué duì shì líng xiào běn rén de yí zuò méi cuò le ！”
“人、仙、物、兽……绝对是陵笑本人的遗作没错了！”
"I've read each of Ling Xiao's works countless times. After my assessment, these are definitely his genuine works!"
“ líng xiào měi yī bù zuò pǐn pín dào dōu kàn le bù xià shù bǎi biàn 。 jīng wǒ jiàn dìng ， zhè xiē jué duì shì líng xiào zhēn zuò ！”
“陵笑每一部作品贫道都看了不下数百遍。经我鉴定，这些绝对是陵笑真作！”
"Who would have thought, in my lifetime, I could see new works from Ling Xiao! Hahaha! Even if I die tomorrow, it won't matter anymore!"
“ méi xiǎng dào ， yǒu shēng zhī nián ， jū rán hái néng kàn dào líng xiào chū xīn zuò pǐn ， hā hā hā ！ nǎ pà míng rì tū pò shēn sǐ ， yě wú hàn le ！”
“没想到，有生之年，居然还能看到陵笑出新作品，哈哈哈！哪怕明日突破身死，也无憾了！”
"So many all at once... If my guess is correct, they were found together in some cave ruins. Ling Xiao was indeed prolific back then. Alas, who knows how many other works have been lost to history?"
“ yī xià zi mào chū le zhè me duō bù …… rú guǒ bù chū suǒ liào ， yīng gāi shì cóng mǒu chù dòng fǔ yí jì zhōng yì qǐ zhǎo dào de 。 líng xiào dà dà dāng nián zhēn shì gāo chǎn 。 āi ， yě bù zhī dào jiū jìng yǒu duō shǎo zuò pǐn ， yí shī zài lì shǐ de cháng hé zhōng 。”
“一下子冒出了这么多部……如果不出所料，应该是从某处洞府遗迹中一起找到的。陵笑大大当年真是高产。哎，也不知道究竟有多少作品，遗失在历史的长河中。”
"Dear fellow, you are truly generous and selfless to make so many works publicly available for free. If it were someone else, they would sell these rare editions at a sky-high price!"
“ zhè wèi tóng hào ， dàng zhēn kāng kǎi wú sī ， jū rán jiāng rú cǐ duō zuò pǐn miǎn fèi gōng kāi le 。 ruò shì huàn zuò mǒu rén ， zhè me duō gū běn ， dìng rán hēi xīn de mài chū gè tiān jià lái ！”
“这位同好，当真慷慨无私，居然将如此多作品免费公开了。若是换做某人，这么多孤本，定然黑心的卖出个天价来！”
"Old Fiend Jingxuan, what are you up to? Do you want to fight?"
“ jīng xuán lǎo guǐ ， nǐ zài yīn yáng guài qì shén me ？ shì bú shì xiǎng dǎ yī jià ？”
“京玄老鬼，你在阴阳怪气什么？是不是想打一架？”
"Hehe, he's getting anxious! He's getting anxious!"
“ hēi hēi ， jí le ， tā jí le ！”
“嘿嘿，急了，他急了！”
"Well then, Jingxuan and Guangwu, no matter how many precious manuscripts you have, your mouths can't be covered. Anyway, this fellow has been so generous that we should express our gratitude. I'll handle it."
“ xíng le ， jīng xuán 、 guǎng wù ， zhè me duō zhēn běn mì shū ， yě zhē bú zhù nǐ men liǎng de zuǐ 。 ń …… bù guǎn rú hé ， zhè wèi tóng hào rú cǐ dà fāng ， shǐ de wǒ děng dà bǎo yǎn fú ， zǒng yào biǎo shì xià xiè yì cái hǎo 。 cǐ shì jiù yóu wǒ lái bàn ba 。”
“行了，京玄、广悟，这么多珍本秘书，也遮不住你们两的嘴。嗯……不管如何，这位同好如此大方，使得我等大饱眼福，总要表示下谢意才好。此事就由我来办吧。”
"Let me see, Cunyun Sea, Li Fan. This place is a bit remote."
“ ràng wǒ kàn kàn ， cóng yún hǎi 、 lǐ fán 。 cǐ dì yǒu diǎn piān yuǎn 。”
“让我看看，丛云海、李凡。此地有点偏远。”
"Hmm? Only Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation? But that's fine; we all gathered here based on the same interests."
“ ń ？ zhǐ shì zhù jī xiū wèi ma ？ bù guò yě wú fáng ， wǒ děng yě zhǐ shì kào xiāng tóng de xìng qù cái huì jù yī chù de 。”
“嗯？只是筑基修为嘛？不过也无妨，我等也只是靠相同的兴趣才汇聚一处的。”
...
……
……
Thus, in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror of Ten Thousand Immortals Island,
yú shì ， wàn xiān dǎo tiān xuán jìng zhōng 。
于是，万仙岛天玄镜中。
Li Fan, after finishing his thoughts on breaking through Ling Xiao's Eternal Remnant, suddenly received a friend request.
shàng chuán wán líng xiào yí zuò hòu méi yǒu zěn me zài yì 、 ér shì sī kǎo qǐ 【 tiān yáng yí niàn 】 de pò jú zhī fǎ de lǐ fán ， què shì tū rán jiē shòu dào le hǎo yǒu shēn qǐng 。
上传完陵笑遗作后没有怎么在意、而是思考起【天阳遗念】的破局之法的李凡，却是突然接受到了好友申请。
"Tianyun Prefecture, Shenyi Zizi? Who is this?" Li Fan felt rather perplexed.
“ tiān yùn zhōu ， shén yù zi ？ zhè shì nǎ wèi ？” lǐ fán dùn jué yǒu xiē mò míng qí miào 。
“天运州，神谕子？这是哪位？”李凡顿觉有些莫名其妙。
"Doesn't show cultivation information; should be above the Golden Core Realm."
“ méi yǒu xiǎn shì jìng jiè xìn xī ， xiū wèi yīng gāi zài jīn dān zhī shàng 。”
“没有显示境界信息，修为应该在金丹之上。”
After some thought, Li Fan accepted the friend request. A middle-aged man in snow-white robes appeared before him.
xiǎng le xiǎng ， lǐ fán hái shì tōng guò le hǎo yǒu shēn qǐng 。
想了想，李凡还是通过了好友申请。
Shenyi Zizi smiled and explained the situation to Li Fan, thanking him for his generous sharing of knowledge.
yī wèi sī sī wén wén 、 shēn chuān xuě bái yī shang de zhōng nián nán zi shēn yǐng ， chū xiàn zài lǐ fán miàn qián 。
一位斯斯文文、身穿雪白衣裳的中年男子身影，出现在李凡面前。
Li Fan never expected that thousands of years after Ling Xiao's death, there were still so many of his die-hard fans.
shén yù zi xiào zhe wèi lǐ fán jiě shì liǎo shì qíng de lái lóng qù mài ， bìng duì lǐ fán wú sī gòng xiǎng jīng shén biǎo shì gǎn xiè 。
神谕子笑着为李凡解释了事情的来龙去脉，并对李凡无私共享精神表示感谢。
For a writer, this was undoubtedly the best reward. If Ling Xiao knew about it in the afterlife, he would be content with his life.
lǐ fán yě méi xiǎng dào ， zài líng xiào shēn yǔn hòu shù qiān nián ， jū rán hái cún zài zhe yī pī tā de sǐ zhōng fěn 。
李凡也没想到，在陵笑身陨后数千年，居然还存在着一批他的死忠粉。
Li Fan did not boast; instead, he modestly said it was just a small effort.
kǒng pà duì yú yī wèi zuò jiā ér yán ， zhè shì zuì hǎo de jiǎng shǎng le ba 。
恐怕对于一位作家而言，这是最好的奖赏了吧。
Shenyi Zizi nodded and didn't say much more. He only told Li Fan that if he encountered any trouble, he could contact him.
ruò shì líng xiào sǐ hòu yǒu zhī ， yě zú yǐ kuài wèi shēng píng le 。
若是陵笑死后有知，也足以快慰生平了。
Li Fan agreed immediately.
lǐ fán méi yǒu jū gōng zì ào ， ér shì hěn jū jǐn de biǎo shì zhǐ shì jǔ shǒu zhī láo 。
李凡没有居功自傲，而是很拘谨的表示只是举手之劳。
After disconnecting the communication, Li Fan searched for "Tianyun Prefecture, Shenyi Zizi" in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror.
shén yù zi diǎn diǎn tóu ， qí tā yě méi duō shuō shén me 。
神谕子点点头，其他也没多说什么。
He found no information on Shenyi Zizi.
zhǐ shì ràng lǐ fán rú guǒ yù dào shén me má fán ， kě yǐ lián xì tā 。
只是让李凡如果遇到什么麻烦，可以联系他。
There were many entries for Tianyun Prefecture. It was located in the western part of the Xuanhuang Realm and seemed to be far from Cunyun Sea.
lǐ fán dāng jí yīng xià 。
李凡当即应下。
The most famous sight within the state was a shadow wall, which had existed for thousands of years, possibly since before the Great Tribulation.
zhōng duàn le tōng xùn ， lǐ fán zài tiān xuán jìng zhōng sōu suǒ qǐ le “ tiān yùn zhōu 、 shén yù zi ” de xìn xī lái 。
中断了通讯，李凡在天玄镜中搜索起了“天运州、神谕子”的信息来。
Every midsummer, the shadow wall would cast light that depicted the scene of *Ordinary Man Ascending to Immortal*.
méi yǒu zhǎo dào shén yù zi de xiāng guān zī liào 。
没有找到神谕子的相关资料。
This scene of ordinary man ascending to immortal was said to have actually occurred several thousand years ago during a time when daoists valued harmony with nature and the heavens.
tiān yùn zhōu dǎo shì yǒu bù shǎo 。
天运州倒是有不少。
A commoner had suddenly enlightened one day. He ascended from mortal to immortal in an instant.
cǐ zhōu wèi yú xuán huáng jiè zhōng bù piān xī ， sì hū jù lí cóng yún hǎi shí fēn yáo yuǎn 。
此州位于玄黄界中部偏西，似乎距离丛云海十分遥远。
Such a rare occurrence, recorded by this shadow wall, would reappear every year, accompanied by countless astonishing phenomena as it resonated with the laws of heaven and earth.
zhōu nèi zuì wèi chū míng de qí guān ， nǎi shì yí miàn yǐng bì 。
州内最为出名的奇观，乃是一面影壁。
Ordinary men who witnessed *Ordinary Man Ascending to Immortal* could gain insights.
yǐng bì yǐ yǒu shù qiān nián lì shǐ ， sì hū shì cóng dà jié jiàng lín zhī qián ， jiù yǐ jīng cún zài le 。
影壁已有数千年历史，似乎是从大劫降临之前，就已经存在了。
Thus, many daoists from other states would travel far to Tianyun Prefecture in hopes of such an opportunity.
měi nián zhōng xún ， yǐng bì shàng guāng yǐng zhào yào ， yìng xiàn chū yī fù 【 fán rén huà shén 】 jǐng xiàng 。
每年中旬，影壁上光影照耀，映现出一副【凡人化神】景象。
"Ordinary Man Ascending to Immortal... If I'm ever stuck at a bottleneck, I can visit this place."
zhè fán rén huà shén zhī jǐng ， jù shuō zhēn shí de fā shēng zài shù qiān nián yǐ qián 。
这凡人化神之景，据说真实的发生在数千年以前。
In today's world of cultivation, most cultivators were confined to one state due to the White Mist Barrier. It was rare for them to connect with others from different states.
nà shì hái jiǎng jiū tiān rén hé yī ， dào fǎ zì rán de shí dài 。
那是还讲究天人合一，道法自然的时代。
This time, thanks to Ling Xiao, he had unexpectedly made contact with a cultivator in far-off Tianyun Prefecture.
dāng shí yī wèi fán rén ， bái rì dùn wù 。
当时一位凡人，白日顿悟。
However, this would only be useful in the future.
fán rén huà shén ， yī bù dēng tiān 。
凡人化神，一步登天。
For now, Li Fan resumed his interrupted thoughts and began pondering ways to break through the Eternal Remnant.
zhè zhǒng gǔ wǎng jīn lái dōu jí wéi hǎn jiàn de yí mù ， qià hǎo bèi zhè miàn yǐng bì jì lù xià lái 。
这种古往今来都极为罕见的一幕，恰好被这面影壁记录下来。
The method was clear: become the strongest manifestation of Dao before the Summon Immortal Order arrives and take part in the war instead of Senior Brother Star.
yú zhī hòu de wú shù suì yuè zhōng ， bù duàn chóng xiàn 。
于之后的无数岁月中，不断重现。
But this seemed an impossible task.
yī rú dāng nián ， qí jǐng chū xiàn de tóng shí ， hái huì yǐn dòng tiān dì fǎ zé gòng míng ， bàn shēng wú shù jīng rén yì xiàng 。
一如当年，奇景出现的同时，还会引动天地法则共鸣，伴生无数惊人异像。
From the start of the simulated world's plot to the arrival of the Summon Immortal Order, only six years had passed.
fán huà shén zhī xià xiū shì ， jī hū dōu kě yǐ zài guān mó 【 fán rén huà shén 】 qí jǐng zhōng ， yǒu suǒ lǐng wù 。
凡化神之下修士，几乎都可以在观摩【凡人化神】奇景中，有所领悟。
In such a short time, for a weak ordinary man to defeat a late-stage Golden Core immortal...
yīn cǐ ， bù shǎo qí tā zhōu de xiū shì dū huì mù míng yuǎn qù tiān yùn zhōu ， yǐ qiú jī yuán 。
因此，不少其他州的修士都会慕名远去天运州，以求机缘。
It was too difficult. At least, with Tianyang's current abilities, there was almost no hope.
“ fán rén huà shén …… yǐ hòu ruò shì kùn yú píng jǐng ， dǎo shì kě yǐ qián qù yī guān 。”
“凡人化神……以后若是困于瓶颈，倒是可以前去一观。”
This world's Tianyang's Eternal Remnant had only one remaining use.
zài dāng jīn xiū xiān jiè ， yóu yú bái wù bì zhàng de cún zài ， jué dà duō shù xiū shì dà bàn shēng dōu kùn è yú yī zhōu zhī dì 。 néng gòu hé bié de zhōu xiū shì chǎn shēng guān lián ， shū wèi bù yì 。
在当今修仙界，由于白雾壁障的存在，绝大多数修士大半生都困厄于一州之地。能够和别的州修士产生关联，殊为不易。
Before he took any risks without certainty, Li Fan would not attempt it.
zhè cì tuō le líng xiào de fú ， néng hé yáo yuǎn tiān yùn zhōu de yī wèi xiū shì dā shàng xiàn ， yě dí què shì yì wài zhī xǐ 。
这次托了陵笑的福，能和遥远天运州的一位修士搭上线，也的确是意外之喜。
"However, I shouldn't be overly concerned. If I can ensure that my strength surpasses a Golden Core before those seven intrude into the Manifestation of Dao, I can give it a try and see what happens next."
bù guò zhè yào děng yǐ hòu huò xǔ cái néng fā huī zuò yòng 。
不过这要等以后或许才能发挥作用。
Li Fan now had an idea on how to quickly boost his combat power.
dāng xià ， lǐ fán jì xù le bèi dǎ duàn de sī lù 。
当下，李凡继续了被打断的思路。
After searching, over a hundred pieces of information about "human secret reserves" appeared in his mind. Many required payment to unlock.
chóng xīn kāi shǐ sī kǎo qǐ 【 yǒng héng yí niàn 】 de pò jú zhī dào lái 。
重新开始思考起【永恒遗念】的破局之道来。
For Li Fan, this contribution was negligible.
xiàn zài fāng fǎ qí shí yǐ jīng hěn míng què le 。
现在方法其实已经很明确了。
He carefully checked the reliable ones:
zài zhēng xiān lìng dào lái zhī qián ， chéng wéi shēn huà dào zuì qiáng ， dài tì dà shī xiōng sī xīng cān jiā zhàn zhēng 。
在征仙令到来之前，成为身化道最强，代替大师兄司星参加战争。
*Another Possibility Beyond the Path of Immortals - Exploring the Potential of Human Secret Reserves*
zhǐ bù guò ， zhè sì hū shì jiàn bù kě néng wán chéng rèn wù 。
只不过，这似乎是件不可能完成任务。
*A Study on the Possible Connection Between Ancient Body Cultivators and Human Secret Reserves*
yào zhī dào ， cóng nǐ huà shì jiè jù qíng kāi shǐ ， dào zhēng xiān lìng jiàng lín 。
要知道，从拟化世界剧情开始，到征仙令降临。
*Blood Rebirth, Endless Vitality*
yī gòng zhǐ guò qù le liù nián duō de shí jiān 。
一共只过去了六年多的时间。
...
ér xiǎng yào zài zhè me duǎn de shí jiān nèi ， ràng yī wèi xiān tiān tǐ ruò de fán rén ， zhàn shèng yī wèi jīn dān hòu qī de qiáng dà gǔ xiū shì ……
而想要在这么短的时间内，让一位先天体弱的凡人，战胜一位金丹后期的强大古修士……
The human body contained immense potential.
kě zhēn shì tài nán le 。
可真是太难了。
This was not something only Tianshi knew. Over the long development in the Xuanhuang Realm, many schools of thought had emerged to study human secret reserves.
zuì qǐ mǎ ， yǐ tiān yáng běn shēn de zī zhì lái jiǎng ， jī hū háo wú chéng gōng de xī wàng 。
最起码，以天阳本身的资质来讲，几乎毫无成功的希望。
After the formation of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and with the Heavenly Xuan Mirror enabling high-level information sharing, research on utilizing these secret reserves flourished.
cǐ shì tiān yáng de 【 yǒng héng yí niàn 】， zhǐ shèng xià le yī cì de shǐ yòng jī huì 。
此世天阳的【永恒遗念】，只剩下了一次的使用机会。
Unfortunately, current practical results were limited.
zài méi yǒu yí dìng de bǎ wò zhī qián ， lǐ fán bú huì qù mào rán cháng shì 。
在没有一定的把握之前，李凡不会去贸然尝试。
Even now that the Dao was reversing and the path of cultivation was fraught with difficulties, it was still more useful than trying to develop human secret reserves.
In the vast ocean of information in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror, Ling Xiao suddenly updated several dozen works, but they failed to draw much attention.
Except for his die-hard fans.
Within this tiny circle of only a few dozen people, the following conversation took place on that day:
"Dear fellow daoists, take a look at what I've discovered. *The Fairy's Jade White*, *My Journey with Third Disciple Brother*... and *Locking Emotions Scroll*."

"Dear fellow, you are truly generous and selfless to make so many works publicly available for free. If it were someone else, they would sell these rare editions at a sky-high price!"
"Old Fiend Jingxuan, what are you up to? Do you want to fight?"
"Hehe, he's getting anxious! He's getting anxious!"
"Well then, Jingxuan and Guangwu, no matter how many precious manuscripts you have, your mouths can't be covered. Anyway, this fellow has been so generous that we should express our gratitude. I'll handle it."
"Let me see, Cunyun Sea, Li Fan. This place is a bit remote."
"Hmm? Only Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation? But that's fine; we all gathered here based on the same interests."
...
Thus, in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror of Ten Thousand Immortals Island,
Li Fan, after finishing his thoughts on breaking through Ling Xiao's Eternal Remnant, suddenly received a friend request.
