qū chú tǐ nèi zhàng qì hòu ， lǐ fán de miàn bǎn fā shēng le jù dà de biàn huà 。
祛除体内瘴气后，李凡的面板发生了巨大的变化。
After the toxic mists were expelled from his body, Li Fan's stats underwent a significant change.

shēng lǐ nián líng shàng xiàn tū pò le yì bǎi dà guān ， bìng qiě zàn shí hái yǒu zhe bù duàn shàng zhǎng de qū shì 。
生理年龄上限突破了一百大关，并且暂时还有着不断上涨的趋势。
His physical age had surpassed the hundred mark and was still on an upward trend. What surprised Li Fan even more was his psychological age limit, which almost doubled to reach over two thousand years!
gèng ràng lǐ fán gǎn dào jīng xǐ de shì xīn lǐ nián líng shàng xiàn ， jū rán jī hū zhí jiē fān bèi ， dá dào le liǎng qiān duō nián ！
更让李凡感到惊喜的是心理年龄上限，居然几乎直接翻倍，达到了两千多年！
He could not have achieved such results merely by using a Purification Spirit Pool.
jǐn jǐn shì kào jìng tǐ líng chí ， gēn běn bù kě néng jiù yǒu rú cǐ xiào guǒ 。
仅仅是靠净体灵池，根本不可能就有如此效果。
Was it because of that mysterious Xuanhuang Qixin Spell...
shì yīn wèi zhè mò míng chū xiàn de 《 xuán huáng liàn xīn zhòu 》 me ……
是因为这莫名出现的《玄黄炼心咒》么……
Li Fan himself had no idea why the name had changed from "Xuanhuang Clear Heart Spell" to "Xuanhuang Refining Heart Spell."
duì yú wèi shén me xuán huáng qīng xīn zhòu biàn chéng le liàn xīn zhòu ， lǐ fán zì jǐ yě shì yī tóu wù shuǐ 。
对于为什么玄黄清心咒变成了炼心咒，李凡自己也是一头雾水。
While in the spirit pool, he almost lost consciousness due to unbearable pain. He was unclear about what happened afterward.
tā zài jìng tǐ chí zhōng ， yīn wèi nán yǐ rěn shòu nà zhǒng jù tòng ， jī hū wán quán shī qù le yì shí 。
他在净体池中，因为难以忍受那种剧痛，几乎完全失去了意识。
However, it wasn't the time for detailed examination. Li Fan steadied his mind and respectfully said to Immortal Master He, "I will never forget your kindness. I shall surely repay you generously."
bù qīng chǔ hòu lái dào dǐ fā shēng le shén me 。
不清楚后来到底发生了什么。
Immortal Master He waited for these words from Li Fan. He then spoke more kindly, "Young friend, what are you saying? The path of immortality is arduous; I merely did my best to help."
bù guò cǐ kè dào yě bú shì zǐ xì chá kàn de shí hòu ， lǐ fán wěn dìng le xià xīn shén ， gǒng shǒu duì hé zhèng hào shuō dào ：“ xiān shī zhī ēn ， fán bù gǎn wàng 。 tā rì bì yǒu hòu bào 。”
不过此刻倒也不是仔细查看的时候，李凡稳定了下心神，拱手对何正浩说道：“仙师之恩，凡不敢忘。他日必有厚报。”
He took out a book and handed it to Li Fan, "After expelling the toxic mists, your next step will be to feel the essence of nature and guide energy into your body. If you can condense the first trace of essence within your body, you'll have entered the Qi Refinement stage, making you an official cultivator. This 'Five Sensory Essence Technique' is a summary of ancient methods for sensing essence; you must study it carefully."
hé zhèng hào děng de jiù shì lǐ fán zhè jù huà ， yú shì yǔ qì yuè fā hé shàn ：“ xiǎo yǒu zhè shì shén me huà ， xiān dào jiān nán ， wǒ yě shì néng bāng jiù jìn lì bāng yī bǎ bà le 。”
何正浩等的就是李凡这句话，于是语气越发和善：“小友这是什么话，仙道艰难，我也是能帮就尽力帮一把罢了。”
He then took out a square spirit token and solemnly handed it to Li Fan, "This is the Departure Dust Token. Before guiding energy into your body, you need to carry this with you."
tā tāo chū yī běn shū ， jì gěi le lǐ fán ：“ qū chú zhàng qì zhī hòu ， biàn shì gǎn shòu tiān dì líng qì ， yǐn qì rù tǐ 。 ruò shì néng zài tǐ nèi níng liàn chū dì yī sī líng qì ， jiù dài biǎo zhe jìn rù le liàn qì qī ， cǐ shí jiù kě yǐ zhèng shì bèi chēng zhī wèi xiū xiān zhě le 。 zhè běn 《 wǔ líng gǎn qì fǎ 》， nǎi shì qián rén guān yú gǎn yìng líng qì de jīng yàn zǒng jié ， nǐ xū hǎo hǎo yán dú 。”
他掏出一本书，寄给了李凡：“祛除瘴气之后，便是感受天地灵气，引气入体。若是能在体内凝练出第一丝灵气，就代表着进入了炼气期，此时就可以正式被称之为修仙者了。这本《五灵感气法》，乃是前人关于感应灵气的经验总结，你需好好研读。”
After seeing Li Fan safely store these items, Immortal Master He explained, "Although you've expelled all toxic mists, it's not a one-time fix. You still live in the mortal world and must interact with ordinary people daily. Over time, you might be reinfected. The Departure Dust Token can help isolate you from toxic influences, but its effect is temporary, lasting only about five years."
tā suí hòu yòu ná chū yí gè sì sì fāng fāng de líng fú ， zhèng zhòng de jiāo yǔ lǐ fán ：“ cǐ nǎi lí chén fú ， zài yǐn qì rù tǐ zhī qián ， nǐ xū suí shēn xié dài 。”
他随后又拿出一个四四方方的灵符，郑重的交予李凡：“此乃离尘符，在引气入体之前，你需随身携带。”
"But given your talent, breaking through to the Qi Refinement stage within five years shouldn't be difficult," Immortal Master He said with a smile.
jiàn lǐ fán jiāng zhè liǎng yàng dōng xī shōu hǎo ， hé zhèng hào cái jiě shì dào ：“ suī rán nǐ yǐ jīng qū chú yī shēn zhàng qì ， dàn yě bú shì yì láo yǒng yì 。 nǐ shàng qiě shēng huó zài shì sú zhī zhōng ， měi tiān xū yào hé fán rén jiē chù ， shí jiān jiǔ le ， nán miǎn huì chóng xīn zhān rǎn zhàng qì 。 zhè lí chén fú kě yǐ bāng nǐ gé jué zhàng qì qīn rǎo ， jiù shì nán yǐ chí xù ， zhǐ néng wéi chí wǔ nián zuǒ yòu 。”
见李凡将这两样东西收好，何正浩才解释道：“虽然你已经祛除一身瘴气，但也不是一劳永逸。你尚且生活在世俗之中，每天需要和凡人接触，时间久了，难免会重新沾染瘴气。这离尘符可以帮你隔绝瘴气侵扰，就是难以持续，只能维持五年左右。”
"After reaching the Qi Refinement stage, come find me on the island. I will then take you to our Immortal Alliance's base in the Cunyun Sea—Wanxiandao. Once there, you can choose your cultivation technique and continue your path."
“ bù guò yǐ xiǎo yǒu tiān zī ， wǔ nián nèi tū pò zhì liàn qì qī xiǎng bì bú shì nán shì 。” hé zhèng hào xiào zhe shuō dào 。
“不过以小友天资，五年内突破至炼气期想必不是难事。”何正浩笑着说道。
Immortal Master He detailed several注意事项 about guiding energy into his body.
“ tū pò zhì liàn qì qī hòu ， jiù kě lái dǎo zhōng zhǎo wǒ ， dào shí hòu wǒ jiàng lǐng nǐ qù wǒ men wàn xiān méng zài zhè cóng yún hǎi de zhù dì ， wàn xiān dǎo 。 dào le dǎo shàng zhī hòu nǐ jiù kě yǐ tiāo xuǎn xiāng yìng de gōng fǎ ， jì xù xiū xíng le 。”
“突破至炼气期后，就可来岛中找我，倒时候我将领你去我们万仙盟在这丛云海的驻地，万仙岛。到了岛上之后你就可以挑选相应的功法，继续修行了。”
Li Fan carefully noted them down.
hé zhèng hào jiāng yī xiē yǐn qì rù tǐ guò chéng zhōng de zhù yì shì xiàng xiáng xì gào zhī le lǐ fán 。
何正浩将一些引气入体过程中的注意事项详细告之了李凡。
After addressing all matters, Li Fan left politely.
lǐ fán yě shì láo láo jiāng qí jì zài nǎo zhōng 。
李凡也是牢牢将其记在脑中。
"I hope this visit will be fruitful," he said to himself as he watched Li Fan's retreating figure.
xiāng guān shì dōu jiāo dài wán bì hòu ， lǐ fán yě shí qù de gào cí lí kāi le 。
相关事都交代完毕后，李凡也识趣的告辞离开了。
Immortal Master He then looked at the mountain beneath him and shook his head. "Potential exhausted; it’s time for a new mountain."
“ xī wàng cǐ cì néng yǒu suǒ shōu huò ba 。”
“希望此次能有所收获吧。”
With that, he leaped into the clouds, waving his sleeves to gather them all in.
kàn zhe lǐ fán yuǎn qù de bèi yǐng ， hé zhèng hào zì yán zì yǔ dào 。
看着李凡远去的背影，何正浩自言自语道。
Looking down at the continuous range of mountains, Immortal Master He selected the one with the highest potential for growth over the next century.
ér hòu hé zhèng hào dǎ liàng zhe jiǎo xià de zhè zuò shān fēng ， yáo le yáo tóu ：“ qián lì yǐ jǐn ， shì shí hòu huàn zuò shān le 。”
而后何正浩打量着脚下的这座山峰，摇了摇头：“潜力已尽，是时候换座山了。”
The technique Immortal Master He cultivated was called "Sitting Mountain Decision." Its greatest feature was enjoying the benefits of a mountain without having to climb it. By sitting on a chosen peak and running his cultivation technique, he could harmonize his aura with the mountain's essence in several years. As the mountain grew, so did his own cultivation.
shuō bà ， tā fēi shēn lái dào yún hǎi zhī shàng ， cháng xiù yī huī ， jiù bǎ gǔn gǔn yún céng jìn shù shōu rù xiù zhōng 。
说罢，他飞身来到云海之上，长袖一挥，就把滚滚云层尽数收入袖中。
Conversely, if he chose incorrectly, he would waste years of effort for no gain.
cháo zhe xià fāng de lián mián shān mài wàng qù ， hé zhèng hào tiāo xuǎn zhe xià gè bǎi nián zhōng jiāng huì zēng zhǎng zuì gāo de shān fēng 。
朝着下方的连绵山脉望去，何正浩挑选着下个百年中将会增长最高的山峰。
Besides benefiting from the growth of the mountain, he could also benefit from helping others.
hé zhèng hào suǒ xiū gōng fǎ ， míng wèi 《 zuò shān jué 》。
何正浩所修功法，名为《坐山决》。
For instance, this help to Li Fan—if Li Fan broke through to Qi Refinement in the future, Immortal Master He would receive a subtle boost in his own cultivation. It wasn't about stealing someone else's strength but more akin to "one man's success benefits all."
《 zuò shān jué 》 zuì dà tè diǎn jiù shì zuò shān xiǎng qí chéng 。
《坐山决》最大特点就是坐山享其成。
The growth of the mountain would bring with it taller trees; the growth of a giant would lift up everything within his sleeves.
tiāo xuǎn yī zuò shān fēng ， duān zuò qí shàng ， yùn xíng gōng fǎ ， hào fèi shù nián guāng yīn ， biàn kě jiāng zì shēn qì xī yǔ shān fēng xiāng hé 。
挑选一座山峰，端坐其上，运行功法，耗费数年光阴，便可将自身气息与山峰相合。
Of course, compared to mountains and rivers, helping others required less stringent conditions—no need for binding one person, allowing him to cast a wide net. However, the more he invested initially, the greater the returns later on.
cǐ hòu shān fēng měi zēng gāo yī fēn ， zì jǐ xiū wèi biàn huì dé dào fǎn bǔ ， xiāng yìng de tí gāo 。
此后山峰每增高一分，自己修为便会得到反哺，相应的提高。
So, when encountering promising juniors, Immortal Master He never hesitated to help them.
xiāng fǎn ， ruò shì kàn chà le yǎn ， zhè zhī hòu shān fēng de gāo dù méi yǒu zēng jiā ， jiù xiāng dāng yú bái bái làng fèi de shí jǐ nián de xiū xíng shí jiān 。
相反，若是看岔了眼，这之后山峰的高度没有增加，就相当于白白浪费的十几年的修行时间。
After exiting the central array of Lustrous Isle, Li Fan quietly returned to Listening to the Whispering Tower without disturbing anyone else.
chú le kě yǐ cóng zēng shān shòu yì zhī wài ， yě kě yǐ cóng zhù rén zhōng huò dé hǎo chù 。
除了可以从增山受益之外，也可以从助人中获得好处。
Having expelled the toxic mists, Li Fan indeed felt a significant difference. It was as if he had aged ten years less; his vision and hearing improved greatly.
bǐ rú zhè fān bāng zhù lǐ fán yī yàng ， ruò shì rì hòu lǐ fán néng tū pò zhì liàn qì qī ， nà me tā míng míng zhōng biàn huì shōu dào fǎn kuì ， zēng jiā zì jǐ de xiū wèi 。
比如这番帮助李凡一样，若是日后李凡能突破至炼气期，那么他冥冥中便会收到反馈，增加自己的修为。
He could even faintly sense the pure energy flowing through the universe.
bú shì xī qǔ tōu qiè duì fāng de xiū wèi ， ér gèng lèi sì yú yī rén dé dào ， jī quǎn shēng tiān 。
不是吸取偷窃对方的修为，而更类似于一人得道，鸡犬升天。
This is what essence is...
shān fēng de zēng gāo ， huì dài zhe shān shàng de shù mù yì qǐ biàn gāo ； jù rén de chéng zhǎng ， yě huì shùn dài tí xié xiù zhōng zhī wù 。
山峰的增高，会带着山上的树木一起变高；巨人的成长，也会顺带提携袖中之物。
Li Fan's heart filled with joy.
dāng rán ， hé shān chuān xiāng bǐ ， zhù rén de tiáo jiàn méi yǒu nà me kē kè ， bù bì bǎng dìng yī rén ， kě yǐ guǎng sā wǎng 。 dàn xiāng yìng de ， dāng chū fù chū de duō shǎo yě jiù jué dìng le yǐ hòu huì yǒu duō dà shōu huò 。
当然，和山川相比，助人的条件没有那么苛刻，不必绑定一人，可以广撒网。但相应的，当初付出的多少也就决定了以后会有多大收获。
After guiding energy into his body, he would be an Essence Refinement cultivator. Li Fan wished to start cultivating immediately without any rest.
suǒ yǐ yù jiàn yǒu qián tú de hòu bèi ， hé zhèng hào cóng lái bú huì lìn sè bāng tā men yī bǎ 。
所以遇见有前途的后辈，何正浩从来不会吝啬帮他们一把。
However, before that, he needed to examine the mysterious Xuanhuang Refining Heart Spell that had appeared.
……
……
He searched through his mind but found no new method of operation.
chū le liú lí dǎo zhōng yāng fǎ zhèn ， lǐ fán méi yǒu jīng dòng páng rén ， qiāo qiāo de huí dào le tīng yōu lóu zhōng 。
出了琉璃岛中央法阵，李凡没有惊动旁人，悄悄的回到了听幽楼中。
So, Li Fan continued practicing according to the Xuanhuang Clear Heart Spell's cultivation method.
qū chú zhàng qì zhī hòu ， lǐ fán què shí gǎn shòu dào le gēn yǐ qián dà bù yí yàng de dì fāng 。
祛除瘴气之后，李凡确实感受到了跟以前大不一样的地方。
As soon as he began, he noticed a difference between the two spells.
fǎng fú nián qīng le shí jǐ suì yī yàng ， shì lì tīng lì dōu biàn hǎo le xǔ duō 。
仿佛年轻了十几岁一样，视力听力都变好了许多。
Previously, cultivating the Clear Heart Spell often required half an hour or more just to calm his mind and clear all other thoughts from it. But with the Refining Heart Spell, Li Fan felt his heart like a mirror in no time.
gèng néng yǐn yǐn gǎn shòu dào tiān dì zhōng liú tǎng zhe de 、 wú chǔ bù zài de chún jìng néng liàng 。
更能隐隐感受到天地中流淌着的、无处不在的纯净能量。
It was as if a giant mill appeared in his brain, continuously absorbing and crushing杂念 into nutrients that strengthened his spirit.
zhè jiù shì líng qì me ……
这就是灵气么……
After three years of cultivating the Clear Heart Spell, apart from some changes on the "True Reality" panel, Li Fan did not find any other benefits.
lǐ fán xīn zhōng huān xǐ 。
李凡心中欢喜。
But with the Refining Heart Spell, he could clearly feel his mental strength increasing every moment.
yǐn qì rù tǐ zhī hòu ， biàn shì liàn qì qī xiū shì le 。
引气入体之后，便是炼气期修士了。
Although the increase was minuscule, it was indeed growing!
lǐ fán hèn bù dé mǎ shàng rì yè bù tíng de xiū liàn 。
李凡恨不得马上日夜不停的修炼。
Li Fan's heart filled with joy and confusion. Why would a common Clear Heart Spell used to expel toxic mists in the cultivation world transform into this extraordinary Refining Heart Spell on him? Could the Refining Heart Spell be considered a cultivation technique?
dàn zài zhè zhī qián ， hái xū yào chá kàn xià nà mò míng chū xiàn de 《 xuán huáng liàn xīn zhòu 》。
但在这之前，还需要查看下那莫名出现的《玄黄炼心咒》。
With his current understanding of the cultivation world, Li Fan could not answer these questions.
nǎo zhōng sōu xún le yī biàn ， bìng méi yǒu chū xiàn xīn de yùn xíng fāng shì 。
脑中搜寻了一遍，并没有出现新的运行方式。
But he felt that there must be some great secret hidden within. He would investigate secretly if given the chance.
yú shì lǐ fán hái shì àn zhào 《 xuán huáng qīng xīn zhòu 》 de xiū liàn fāng fǎ kāi shǐ xiū liàn 。
于是李凡还是按照《玄黄清心咒》的修炼方法开始修炼。
On the brink of becoming a cultivator and receiving this miraculous Refining Heart Spell, Li Fan felt somewhat elated.
fǔ yī yùn xíng ， lǐ fán jiù chá jué dào le liàn xīn zhòu hé qīng xīn zhòu zhī jiān de qū bié 。
甫一运行，李凡就察觉到了炼心咒和清心咒之间的区别。
However, soon after, he received a letter with news that shattered his self-satisfaction.
zhī qián xiū xíng qīng xīn zhòu ， wǎng wǎng xū yào huā fèi xiǎo bàn gè shí chén ， cái néng màn màn jìng xià xīn lái ， jiāng nǎo hǎi zhōng qí yú yī qiè zá niàn qù chú 。
之前修行清心咒，往往需要花费小半个时辰，才能慢慢静下心来，将脑海中其余一切杂念去除。
Xiao Heng had successfully guided energy into his body and was already on his way to Wanxiandao.
After the toxic mists were expelled from his body, Li Fan's stats underwent a significant change.
Name: Li Fan
Realm: Mortal
Physical Age: 42/120↑
Psychological Age: 505/2053↑
Void Filling Energy Progress: 121%
Anchoring Energy Progress: 51%
Current Anchor Points: 1
Bound Items: "Thousand Mechanisms and Jade Circle," Taiyin Boat, Damaged Stopstone

His physical age had surpassed the hundred mark and was still on an upward trend. What surprised Li Fan even more was his psychological age limit, which almost doubled to reach over two thousand years!
