mí wǎng zhī hòu ， yè fēi péng yòu jiāng 《 zào huà hōng lú gōng 》 fān lái fù qù kàn le jǐ biàn 。
迷惘之后，叶飞鹏又将《造化烘炉功》翻来覆去看了几遍。
After the confusion, Ye Feipeng repeatedly read through *The Art of Transformation Furnace*.
zuì hòu ， tā dīng zhe gōng fǎ mò wěi nà shǒu xiǎo shī ， ruò yǒu suǒ sī 。
最后，他盯着功法末尾那首小诗，若有所思。
Finally, he stared at the small poem at the end of the technique, deep in thought.
“ dà dào běn zhì jiǎn ， zào huà zǒng wú sī 。”
“大道本至简，造化总无私。”
"Great Dao is inherently simple; transformation knows no selfishness."
“ zhēn fǎ chuán tiān xià ， wéi yǒu yuán zhě zhī 。”
“真法传天下，唯有缘者知。”
"True techniques spread across the world; only those with destiny can know them."
zuǐ lǐ nán nán jiāng shī jù mò niàn ， yè fēi péng yǎn shén yuè lái yuè liàng 。
嘴里喃喃将诗句默念，叶飞鹏眼神越来越亮。
Muttering these lines under his breath, Ye Feipeng's eyes grew brighter.
“ shì le ， suǒ wèi dà dào zhì jiǎn 、 zhēn chuán yī jù 。”
“是了，所谓大道至简、真传一句。”
"That’s right. The Great Dao is simple, and true transmission lies in a single word."
“ zhè 《 zào huà hōng lú gōng 》 kàn shàng qù rú cǐ jiǎn lòu ， dàn ruò shì zhēn de bǎ tā kàn qīng ， nà jiù shì dà cuò tè cuò ！”
“这《造化烘炉功》看上去如此简陋，但若是真的把它看轻，那就是大错特错！”
"This *Art of Transformation Furnace* looks so simplistic, but if I take it lightly, that would be a grave mistake!"
xiǎo pàng zi chóng xīn biàn dé zì xìn qǐ lái 。
小胖子重新变得自信起来。
The plump boy regained confidence.
“【 fù xiān 】 shì shàng gǔ shí qī jiù cún zài de zǔ zhī ， suī shuō rú jīn yǐ jīng yǒu xiē mò luò ， dàn bì jìng dǐ yùn shēn hòu 。”
“【复仙】是上古时期就存在的组织，虽说如今已经有些没落，但毕竟底蕴深厚。”
"[Reincarnated Immortal] was an organization from the ancient era; though it has declined somewhat, its foundation is still deep."
“ tā de zhēn cáng ， zěn me kě néng shì pǔ tōng dà lù huò néng bǐ de ？！”
“它的珍藏，怎么可能是普通大路货能比的？！”
"How could ordinary common goods compare to its treasures?!"
“ zào huà ， zào huà 。 dé cǐ gōng fǎ ， zhēn shì wǒ yè fēi péng de zào huà ！”
“造化，造化。得此功法，真是我叶飞鹏的造化！”
"Transformation. Transformation. Gaining this technique truly brings me good fortune!"
xīn zhōng jī dòng zhī yú ， xiǎo pàng zi jiāng yù jiǎn niē suì ， chū le xiān qiǎn jìng 。
心中激动之余，小胖子将玉简捏碎，出了先遣境。
Excitedly, he crushed the jade slip and crossed the Pre-Emptiveness Realm.
shēn xíng jí biāo ， dùn rù huāng dǎo fù jìn de yī chù hǎi gōu zhōng ， àn zhào 《 zào huà hōng lú gōng 》 zhōng de fāng fǎ ， xiū xíng qǐ lái 。
身形急飙，遁入荒岛附近的一处海沟中，按照《造化烘炉功》中的方法，修行起来。
His figure sped up as he entered a nearby sea trench near the deserted island, practicing according to the method in *The Art of Transformation Furnace*.
“ diào yòng tǐ nèi mì cáng zhī lì ……”
“调用体内密藏之力……”
"Invoke the hidden power within..."
yè fēi péng bì yǎn ， àn zì gǎn yìng zhe tǐ nèi yùn cáng zhe de lì liàng 。
叶飞鹏闭眼，暗自感应着体内蕴藏着的力量。
Ye Feipeng closed his eyes, sensing the latent strength within his body.
chà nà jiān ， tā jiù páng fó xiàn rù le xiū mián zhī zhōng ， shēn shàng de qì xī bō dòng chén jì le xià qù 。
刹那间，他就彷佛陷入了休眠之中，身上的气息波动沉寂了下去。
In an instant, it seemed like he fell into a deep sleep; his aura fluctuated and quieted down.
rú cǐ ， zú zú guò qù le yí gè duō yuè de shí jiān 。
如此，足足过去了一个多月的时间。
This continued for over a month.
zhè tiān ， yè fēi péng de liǎn shàng hū rán yǒng xiàn chū yī sī mò míng de hóng yùn 。
这天，叶飞鹏的脸上忽然涌现出一丝莫名的红晕。
One day, a strange red flush appeared on Ye Feipeng's face. A vulture-pigeon shadow floated above him, emitting a loud call.
tā de tóu dǐng ， kūn péng xū yǐng yě shì shì shí fú xiàn ， pèi hé zhe fā chū yī shēng liáo liàng de míng jiào 。
他的头顶，鲲鹏虚影也是适时浮现，配合着发出一声嘹亮的鸣叫。
"Spit!"
“ pū ！”
“噗！”
A mouthful of blood shot out as his brown wings suddenly spread wide.
yī kǒu xiān xuè pēn chū ， bèi hòu hè sè shuāng yì měng dì zhāng kāi 。
一口鲜血喷出，背后褐色双翼勐地张开。
It felt like a massive energy surged through his body, causing bulges to appear on his skin—like tumors moving across his flesh.
tǐ nèi páng fó tū rán chū xiàn le yī gǔ jù dà de néng liàng 。
体内彷佛突然出现了一股巨大的能量。
But Ye Feipeng was not alarmed; instead, he looked delighted.
tā bù duàn yǒng dòng ， suǒ jīng guò de dì fāng ， zài pí fū biǎo miàn dōu xiǎn xiàn chū jù dà de lóng qǐ 。
它不断涌动，所经过的地方，在皮肤表面都显现出巨大的隆起。
"The hidden power is indeed extraordinary! I thought I had fully tapped into the vulture-pigeon's potential."
kàn zhe jiù xiàng yí gè ròu liú bù duàn zài shēn shàng yóu zǒu 。
看着就像一个肉瘤不断在身上游走。
"I didn’t realize it was so early!"
yè fēi péng liǎn shàng què shì bù jīng fǎn xǐ 。
叶飞鹏脸上却是不惊反喜。
Just as Ye Feipeng was excited, another vast and boundless force surged through his body.
“ mì cáng zhī lì ， guǒ rán fēi tóng xiǎo kě ！ yuán běn yǐ wéi ， wǒ yǐ jīng jiāng kūn péng xuè mài de qián néng quán dōu kāi fā chū lái le 。”
“密藏之力，果然非同小可！原本以为，我已经将鲲鹏血脉的潜能全都开发出来了。”
He coughed up more blood, feeling overwhelmed by the sudden exertion.
“ méi xiǎng dào ， hái zǎo de hěn ！”
“没想到，还早的很！”
His body was already deformed from this immense impact. Ye Feipeng’s face turned serious.
jiù zài yè fēi péng xīn zhōng xīng fèn de gōng fu ， yòu shì yī gǔ cāng máng hào hàn de lì liàng zài tǐ nèi hū de yǒng xiàn 。
就在叶飞鹏心中兴奋的功夫，又是一股苍茫浩瀚的力量在体内忽的涌现。
"Need to quickly refine these forces."
páng fó bèi hěn hěn zhuàng jī le yī xià ， xiǎo pàng zi yòu shì tǔ chū yī dà kǒu xiān xuè 。
彷佛被狠狠撞击了一下，小胖子又是吐出一大口鲜血。
...
“ yī xià zi diào yòng tài guò ， yǒu diǎn zāo bú zhù le 。”
“一下子调用太过，有点遭不住了。”
"Bodily furnace, transformation as work; hidden power like charcoal, all things copper!"
shēn tǐ yǐ jīng bèi zhè jù lì chōng jī de yǒu xiē jī biàn ， yè fēi péng liǎn shàng dùn shí yán sù qǐ lái 。
身体已经被这巨力冲击的有些畸变，叶飞鹏脸上顿时严肃起来。
Recalling the key points in the technique, a glint appeared in Ye Feipeng's eyes.
“ xū yào gǎn jǐn jiāng zhè xiē lì liàng liàn huà 。”
“需要赶紧将这些力量炼化。”
His plump and somewhat deformed body heated up visibly.
“ shēn shì hōng lú ， zào huà wèi gōng 。 mì cáng rú tàn ， wàn wù jiē tóng ！”
“身似烘炉，造化为工。密藏如碳，万物皆铜！”
"Hmm!"
huí xiǎng zhe gōng fǎ zhōng de jīng yì yào jué ， yè fēi péng yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī dào jīng máng 。
回想着功法中的经意要诀，叶飞鹏眼中闪过一道精芒。
The rhythmic sound of a massive hammer resounded from within his body.
féi pàng bìng yǒu xiē jī xíng de shēn tǐ ， dùn shí yǐ ròu yǎn kě jiàn de sù dù chì rè qǐ lái 。
肥胖并有些畸形的身体，顿时以肉眼可见的速度炽热起来。
As the sound echoed, Ye Feipeng’s body trembled violently. Yet, the bulges around him seemed to shrink slightly due to this powerful blow.
“ hōng ！”
“轰！”
Though barely noticeable, Ye Feipeng could clearly feel the changes in himself.
wǎn ruò jù chuí zhuàng jī de hōng lōng shēng yǐn yǐn zì tā de tǐ nèi fú xiàn 。
宛若巨锤撞击的轰隆声隐隐自他的体内浮现。
"Good!"
shēng yīn xiǎng qǐ de chà nà ， yè fēi péng de shēn qū yě bù yóu de jù liè chàn dǒu qǐ lái 。
声音响起的刹那，叶飞鹏的身躯也不由的剧烈颤抖起来。
"Again!"
dàn zhōu shēn bù duàn yóu zǒu de lóng qǐ ， què hǎo xiàng yīn wèi zhè měng liè de yī chuí ， ér suō jiǎn le jǐ fēn 。
但周身不断游走的隆起，却好像因为这勐烈的一锤，而缩减了几分。
A second hammer strike.
suī rán jí bù míng xiǎn ， dàn yè fēi péng què kě yǐ qīng chǔ de gǎn jué dào zì shēn de biàn huà 。
虽然极不明显，但叶飞鹏却可以清楚的感觉到自身的变化。
...
“ hǎo ！”
“好！”
Under continuous blows, the two massive hidden powers were gradually absorbed by his body.
“ zài lái ！”
“再来！”
His physical strength was further enhanced.
tā yǎn zhōng shǎn xiàn chū yī sī guǒ rán rú cǐ de shén sè 。
他眼中闪现出一丝果然如此的神色。
In a short time, he gained about ten percent of this enhancement.
yòu shì yī chuí 。
又是一锤。
Just as Ye Feipeng was ecstatic over these changes, his furnace-like body, emitting intense light, began to show signs of strain. Fine cracks appeared, almost as if it would shatter at any moment.
……
……
Ye Feipeng’s expression changed dramatically.
zài bù duàn de jiē lián hāng dǎ zhī xià ， nà liǎng tuán páng bó de mì cáng zhī lì ， màn màn bèi yè fēi péng de shēn tǐ suǒ xī shōu 。
在不断的接连夯打之下，那两团磅礴的密藏之力，慢慢被叶飞鹏的身体所吸收。
But before he could react, a blue light suddenly burst from his dantian.
ròu shēn de qiáng dù zài dù dé dào jiā qiáng 。
肉身的强度再度得到加强。
The deep blue energy moved through the fiery glow, repairing Ye Feipeng's injuries with its own consciousness.
duǎn duǎn shí jiān nèi ， jiù dé dào le dà yuē shí fēn zhī yī de tí shēng 。
短短时间内，就得到了大约十分之一的提升。
At the same time, countless tiny blue particles flowed towards him from nearby sea trenches. Not just water attributes; they contained pure life energy as well.
jiù zài yè fēi péng duì yú zhè biàn huà gǎn dào kuáng xǐ de shí hòu ， tā nà rú hōng lú bān fā chū chì zhuó guāng máng de shēn qū 。
就在叶飞鹏对于这变化感到狂喜的时候，他那如烘炉般发出炽灼光芒的身躯。
With this nourishment, Ye Feipeng’s furnace body stabilized again.
què páng fó yīn wèi chāo fù hè yùn zhuàn de yuán gù ， chū xiàn le dào dào xì wén 。
却彷佛因为超负荷运转的缘故，出现了道道细纹。
"Brilliant!"
sì hū xià yī miǎo jiù yào chéng shòu bú zhù ， suì liè kāi lái 。
似乎下一秒就要承受不住，碎裂开来。
"The technique mentioned that the process of refining one's body cannot be too rushed or it would harm oneself."
yè fēi péng miàn sè dǒu biàn 。
叶飞鹏面色陡变。
"I must have been too eager during my first attempt and invoked too much hidden power."
rán ér ， hái méi děng tā lái de jí yǒu suǒ fǎn yìng ， dān tián chù ， yī sī lán guāng shū hū jiān zhàn fàng 。
然而，还没等他来的及有所反应，丹田处，一丝蓝光倏忽间绽放。
"However, I didn’t expect the Pearl of the Vast Sea to heal my physical injuries."
shēn suì de lán sè zài chì máng zhōng yóu zǒu chuān suō ， sì hū yǒu zì jǐ yì shí bān ， bù duàn xiū fù zhe yè fēi péng de shāng shì 。
深邃的蓝色在赤芒中游走穿梭，似乎有自己意识般，不断修复着叶飞鹏的伤势。
"This means..."
yú cǐ tóng shí ， máng máng duō de lán sè xì xiǎo guāng lì ， cóng hǎi gōu fù jìn de hǎi yù zhōng qián fù hòu jì de cháo zhe yè fēi péng yǒng lái 。
于此同时，茫茫多的蓝色细小光粒，从海沟附近的海域中前赴后继的朝着叶飞鹏涌来。
...
bù jǐn jǐn shì dān chún de shuǐ shǔ xìng zhī lì 。
不仅仅是单纯的水属性之力。
His excitement grew.
hái bāo hán zhe jīng chún de shēng mìng néng liàng 。
还包含着精纯的生命能量。
The sound of hammer strikes resounded again. Encouraged by his success, Ye Feipeng eagerly continued his practice.
shòu cǐ zī bǔ ， xiǎo pàng zi de hōng lú shēn qū zài dù wěn dìng xià lái 。
受此滋补，小胖子的烘炉身躯再度稳定下来。
Li Fan, observing this in the Heavenly Dao Mirror, couldn't help but exclaim.
“ miào a ！”
“妙啊！”
"Is this the power of the vulture-pigeon lineage? The strength of ancient beasts truly surpasses that of humans."
“ gōng fǎ zhōng céng shuō ， cuì liàn shēn qū de guò chéng ， bù néng tài jí 。 fǒu zé fǎn ér huì shāng jí zì shēn 。”
“功法中曾说，淬炼身躯的过程，不能太急。否则反而会伤及自身。”
Li Fan had given *The Art of Transformation Furnace* to Ye Feipeng with a hint of curiosity. He wanted to see if combining the method of invoking hidden powers with beast lineage would produce any changes.
“ wǒ gāng gāng sì hū jiù shì yīn wèi dì yī cì xiū liàn ， tài guò jí pò ， diào yòng de mì cáng zhī lì tài duō le 。”
“我刚刚似乎就是因为第一次修炼，太过急迫，调用的密藏之力太多了。”
The results were somewhat unexpected. Due to his vulture-pigeon’s robust physique, Ye Feipeng could endure the hammering far more than Li Fan's clone.

Remembering that he had never received such treatment when using the Pearl of the Vast Sea to build his foundation, Li Fan coldly remarked in his mind.
“ shēn tǐ chāo fù hè yùn zhuàn ， yǒu diǎn xū bù shòu bǔ de wèi dào 。”
“身体超负荷运转，有点虚不受补的味道。”
"Never thought you had healing abilities; you treat me like a son."
“ dàn shì méi xiǎng dào cāng hǎi zhū jìng rán néng xiū fù wǒ ròu tǐ de shāng shì 。”
“但是没想到沧海珠竟然能修复我肉体的伤势。”
...
“ rú cǐ shuō lái ， qǐ bù shì yì wèi zhe ……”
“如此说来，岂不是意味着……”
Regardless of Li Fan’s thoughts, Ye Feipeng’s progress continued unhindered. With no fear of injury, he could freely refine his body.
xīn zhōng yuè xiǎng yuè jī dòng 。
心中越想越激动。
Another month passed, and not only did Ye Feipeng absorb the two hidden powers he had invoked earlier, but his once plump body gradually slimmed down through repeated hammering.
dà chuí hāng jī de shēng xiǎng zài dù chū xiàn 。
大锤夯击的声响再度出现。
When he became emaciated, several more hidden powers surged forth, inflating his body like a balloon.
cháng dào le tián tóu de yè fēi péng ， pò bù jí dài de jì xù xiū liàn qǐ lái 。
尝到了甜头的叶飞鹏，迫不及待的继续修炼起来。
The hammer strikes continued as Ye Feipeng’s strength soared rapidly in this cycle.
After the confusion, Ye Feipeng repeatedly read through *The Art of Transformation Furnace*.
Finally, he stared at the small poem at the end of the technique, deep in thought.
"Great Dao is inherently simple; transformation knows no selfishness."
"True techniques spread across the world; only those with destiny can know them."
