“ fēng shēng bǎo hé ， kàn lái dì guó guǒ rán shì dāng nián yù shòu zōng chuán chéng 。”
“封生宝盒，看来帝国果然是当年御兽宗传承。”
"封生宝盒，看来帝国果然是当年御兽宗的传承之地。"
yǒu le huà shén shí lì de tiān yáng shǒu hù ， lǐ fán zhè cái fàng xīn de chá kàn qǐ le cǐ cì hé dì guó jiāo yì de shōu huò 。
有了化神实力的天阳守护，李凡这才放心的查看起了此次和帝国交易的收获。
With the protection of his Spiritual God Power, Li Fan finally felt at ease as he began to examine the收获 from this transaction with the empire.
zhū duō yì shòu de xiáng jìn zī liào yǐ jí fēng shēng bǎo hé zhōng bīng fēng de yì shòu shí tǐ ， duì yú qí tā xiū shì lái jiǎng ， huò xǔ yòng chǔ bù dà 。
诸多异兽的详尽资料以及封生宝盒中冰封的异兽实体，对于其他修士来讲，或许用处不大。
The detailed profiles of numerous exotic beasts and the actual frozen entities within the封生宝盒 were not much use to other cultivators. But for Li Fan, who practiced 熔炉万象功 (Refining Furnace Ten Thousand Phenomena Technique), they constituted a vast treasure trove.
dàn shì duì yú xiū xíng 《 róng lú wàn xiàng gōng 》 de lǐ fán lái jiǎng ， què shì bù zhé bù kòu de páng dà bǎo kù 。
但是对于修行《熔炉万象功》的李凡来讲，却是不折不扣的庞大宝库。
Various extraordinary abilities of these exotic beasts could now be mastered by Li Fan through his Refining Furnace Ten Thousand Phenomena Technique.
gè zhǒng yì shòu qí yì de néng lì ， lǐ fán dōu kě yǐ yòng róng lú wàn xiàng gōng biàn huà hòu ， yī yī zhǎng wò 。
各种异兽奇异的能力，李凡都可以用熔炉万象功变化后，一一掌握。
"Truly wondrous is the beauty of life!"
“ shēng líng zhī měi ， mò guò yú cǐ ！”
“生灵之美，莫过于此！”
"The descriptions in the 天医仙经 (Heavenly Medicine Immortal Scripture) might not even cover all forms of life on this world!"
“ tiān yī xiān jīng zhōng jì zǎi de ， kǒng pà yě bú shì shì jiān shēng líng quán mào ！”
“天医仙经中记载的，恐怕也不是世间生灵全貌！”
Li Fan flicked a finger, and all the bookworms within his storage ring were extracted. His divine sense flipped through the books instantly, projecting countless beams of light into the air above the cave.
lǐ fán qīng qīng yī zhǐ ， jìn shù jiāng chǔ wù jiè zhōng de shū chóng quán dōu qǔ chū 。
李凡轻轻一指，尽数将储物戒中的书虫全都取出。
The transformed Xuan Dao Stone emitted an unprecedented azure glow as Li Fan's eyes narrowed, trying to capture every word and image in his mind.
shén shí yī qí fān dòng shū běn ， shà shí jiān ， wú shù dào guāng yǐng tóu shè yú dòng fǔ nèi de shàng kōng 。
神识一齐翻动书本，霎时间，无数道光影投射于洞府内的上空。
A flood of information surged, categorized and stored back within the Xuan Dao Stone.
nǎo hǎi zhōng de huà dào shí zhàn fàng chū zhī qián bù céng yǒu guò de zhàn lán guāng máng ， lǐ fán yǎn jīng wēi mī ， jié lì jiāng cǐ kè suǒ jiàn de wén zì 、 huà miàn ， jìn shù shōu yú nǎo hǎi 。
脑海中的化道石绽放出之前不曾有过的湛蓝光芒，李凡眼睛微眯，竭力将此刻所见的文字、画面，尽数收于脑海。
Turning pages with a rustling sound, the images kept changing. After recording several pages, Li Fan felt a slight headache at his temples.
cháo shuǐ bān de xìn xī yǒng lái ， fēn bié bù jū ， chóng xīn cún fàng 、 guī dàng yú huà dào shí zhōng 。
潮水般的信息涌来，分别部居，重新存放、归档于化道石中。
After resting for a short while and taking another悟道丹 (Enlightenment Pill), he resumed "reading."
huā huā de fān yè shēng zhōng ， guāng yǐng bù duàn biàn huàn 。
哗哗的翻页声中，光影不断变幻。
Over thousands of years, the empire had given birth to countless unique species. Most were not mentioned in the 天医仙经 (Heavenly Medicine Immortal Scripture) or existed within the current Xuanhuang World.
jì lù xià quán bù de jǐ yè nèi róng zhī hòu ， lǐ fán gǎn dào tài yáng xué yǒu xiē zhàng tòng 。
记录下全部的几页内容之后，李凡感到太阳穴有些胀痛。
The myriad abilities of these creatures amazed even Li Fan, who was well-versed in such matters.
xiē xī le shǎo xǔ ， yòu fú xià yī méi wù dào dān hòu ， lǐ fán zài dù “ yuè dú ” qǐ lái 。
歇息了少许，又服下一枚悟道丹后，李凡再度“阅读”起来。
For instance, there was the智识虫 (Wisdom Worm), which resided in human brains to enhance cognitive functions. There was also the摹兽 (Imitator Beast) that could perfectly disguise itself after devouring another creature's body. And there was the 千灵鸟 (Thousand Spirits Bird), which fed on human emotions...
shù qiān nián de yǎn biàn zhōng ， dì guó dàn shēng le xǔ xǔ duō duō dú tè de wù zhǒng 。
数千年的演变中，帝国诞生了许许多多独特的物种。
These and many more left Li Fan with a newfound appreciation.
jué dà duō shù dōu shì lǐ fán zài tiān yī xiān jīng zhōng bù céng jiàn dào guò de 。
绝大多数都是李凡在天医仙经中不曾见到过的。
"Honing the furnace to encompass all phenomena, this is truly what life should be like!"
yě bù cún zài rú jīn de xuán huáng jiè zhōng 。
也不存在如今的玄黄界中。
In his reflections, the pages of the book turned rapidly as the accumulated knowledge from thousands of years was absorbed into Li Fan's mind.
tā men de zhǒng zhǒng qí yì néng lì ， ráo shì jiàn duō shí guǎng de lǐ fán ， yě shì zé zé chēng qí 。
它们的种种奇异能力，饶是见多识广的李凡，也是啧啧称奇。
Ten days later, Li Fan exhaled deeply and pressed his forehead gently. He returned the bookworms back into his storage ring, feeling grateful for Tianyang's concerned gaze but waving it off with a dismissive gesture.
bǐ rú jì jū zài rén nǎo zhōng 、 néng gòu bāng zhù tí shēng sī wéi néng lì de 【 zhì shí chóng 】， bǐ rú tūn shì yì tǐ hòu 、 néng gòu zuò dào wán quán wěi zhuāng de 【 mó shòu 】， zài bǐ rú yǐ rén lèi qíng xù wèi shí de 【 qiān líng niǎo 】……
比如寄居在人脑中、能够帮助提升思维能力的【智识虫】，比如吞噬异体后、能够做到完全伪装的【摹兽】，再比如以人类情绪为食的【千灵鸟】……
After resting for half a day, Li Fan took out another red wooden box. According to information he had seen in the 天玄镜 (Heavenly Profound Mirror), this封生宝盒 was indeed an ancient artifact of the Beast Taming Sect from times long past.
fán cǐ zhǒng zhǒng ， ràng lǐ fán dà kāi yǎn jiè 。
凡此种种，让李凡大开眼界。
It was said that it was crafted from 万化灵木 (Ten Thousand Transformations Spirit Wood) and could seal living beasts. With time, the Ten Thousand Transformations Spirit Tree had nearly become extinct, making the封生宝盒 a rare find.
“ hōng lú wàn xiàng ， zhè cái shì zhēn zhèng shēng líng gāi yǒu de wàn xiàng a ！”
“烘炉万象，这才是真正生灵该有的万象啊！”
"Looks like my hunch was right."
lǐ fán de gǎn kǎi shēng zhōng ， shū yè bù duàn fān dòng 。
李凡的感慨声中，书页不断翻动。
"The familiarity I felt from that robed woman should be from the Qingluan Bird that Xu Ke encountered in the陨仙境 (Fallen Realm of Immortals)."
dì guó shù qiān nián de jī lěi ， zài duǎn shí jiān nèi ， jìn shù bèi xī shōu chéng wéi le lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng de zhī shí 。
帝国数千年的积累，在短时间内，尽数被吸收成为了李凡脑海中的知识。
"I wonder if that crane is still around."
shí tiān hòu 。
十天后。
"So, the empire's founder, the first to master Beast Taming Techniques, must have been Xu Ke?"
lǐ fán zhǎng hū yì kǒu qì ， àn le àn yǐn yǐn téng tòng de é tóu ， jiāng shū chóng shōu huí chǔ wù jiè nèi 。
李凡长呼一口气，按了按隐隐疼痛的额头，将书虫收回储物戒内。
"Li Chenfeng's memories suggest he has passed away. But things might not be as simple as they seem."
gǎn shòu dào tiān yáng chuán lái de guān qiè de yǎn shén ， lǐ fán bǎi bǎi shǒu 、 biǎo shì zì jǐ méi shì 。
感受到天阳传来的关切的眼神，李凡摆摆手、表示自己没事。
Li Fan pondered.
xiē xī le xiǎo bàn tiān ， dài chóng xīn huī fù le xiē jīng shén hòu ， lǐ fán yòu qǔ chū nà méi hóng sè de mù hé lái 。
歇息了小半天，待重新恢复了些精神后，李凡又取出那枚红色的木盒来。
"Based on current information, only Xu Ke seems to have entered that small world and established this empire's legacy."
gēn jù zhī qián zài tiān xuán jìng zhōng céng kàn guò de xìn xī ， zhè fēng shēng bǎo hé ， zhèng shì shàng gǔ zhī shí yù shòu zōng de tè yǒu zhī wù 。
根据之前在天玄镜中曾看过的信息，这封生宝盒，正是上古之时御兽宗的特有之物。
"Where did the other members of the Beast Taming Sect go? Lu Ya?"
jù shuō nǎi shì yòng 【 wàn huà líng mù 】 dǎ zào ， néng fēng jìn 、 shōu cáng huó zhe de yāo shòu 。
据说乃是用【万化灵木】打造，能封禁、收藏活着的妖兽。
"Why would Di Sanmo end up at the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, becoming the director of the Museum of Divine Treasures?"
shí guāng biàn qiān ， shù qiān nián guò qù ， wàn huà líng shù rú jīn zǎo yǐ jìn hū miè jué 。
时光变迁，数千年过去，万化灵树如今早已近乎灭绝。
"What is the connection between all these events and Mr. Bai's mission?"
fēng shēng bǎo hé yě shì yī wù nán qiú 。
封生宝盒也是一物难求。
There were too many unanswered questions.
“ kàn lái wǒ de yù gǎn méi yǒu cuò 。”
“看来我的预感没有错。”
"Perhaps during my next trip to the Fallen Realm of Immortals, I can resolve some of them."
“ cóng nà wèi qīng yī nǚ zǐ shēn shàng gǎn shòu dào de jǐ fēn shú xī ， yīng gāi jiù shì lái zì yǔn xiān jìng zhōng ， xǔ kè céng jīng yù dào de nà zhǐ qīng luán niǎo 。”
“从那位青衣女子身上感受到的几分熟悉，应该就是来自陨仙境中，许克曾经遇到的那只青鸾鸟。”
"It won't be long." Li Fan calculated the time in his mind.
“ bù zhī nà tóu dān dǐng hè rú jīn hái zài bù zài 。”
“不知那头丹顶鹤如今还在不在。”
He put away the封生宝盒 and took out a beast soul pearl at base level. The empire's generosity greatly exceeded what Li Fan had expected.
“ zhè me shuō ， dì guó de dì zào zhě ， nà wèi zuì xiān lǐng wù 【 yù shòu zhī fǎ 】 de xiān mín ， jiù shì xǔ kè le ？”
“这么说，帝国的缔造者，那位最先领悟【御兽之法】的先民，就是许克了？”
Five hundred base cultivators, four hundred ninety golden core cultivators, and nine元婴 (Primordial Core) cultivators would surely cause quite a stir if used wisely.
“ lǐ chén fēng de jì yì zhōng ， tā zǎo yǐ gù qù 。 bù guò shì qíng yě wèi bì xiàng biǎo miàn shàng kàn qǐ lái zhè me jiǎn dān 。”
“李晨风的记忆中，他早已故去。不过事情也未必像表面上看起来这么简单。”
While this was theoretical power, the actual combat capabilities of current cultivators in the Xuanhuang World were abysmal. Apart from a few who specialized in battle techniques, most ordinary people could barely handle a few offensive spells or defensive techniques.
lǐ fán àn zì sī cǔn 。
李凡暗自思忖。
The beast soul armor's ability to affect divine sense and withstand most magical attacks while moving at incredible speeds was indeed a formidable weapon for these ordinary cultivators.
“ cóng mù qián yǐ zhī de xìn xī tuī lùn ， dāng nián yù shòu zōng ， sì hū zhǐ yǒu xǔ kè yī rén lái dào nà fāng xiǎo shì jiè ， zào jiù le rú jīn dì guó de chuán chéng 。”
“从目前已知的信息推论，当年御兽宗，似乎只有许克一人来到那方小世界，造就了如今帝国的传承。”
"Still need to think carefully on how best to utilize it."
“ yù shòu zōng qí tā rén yòu qù le nǎ lǐ ？ lù yá ne ？”
“御兽宗其他人又去了哪里？陆涯呢？”
Li Fan held the beast soul pearl, imprinting it onto his brow. A blood-red vision flashed before him as he saw a fierce one-eyed leopard charging towards him.
“ wèi hé dì sān mò huì lái dào le wàn xiān méng ， chéng wéi le bó wù shén cáng guǎn de guǎn zhǎng ？”
“为何帝叁貘会来到了万仙盟，成为了博物神藏馆的馆长？”
"Hmph!" Li Fan's intent pierced through, aiming at the leopard.
“ zhè yī qiè ， hé dāng chū bái xiān shēng de rèn wù yòu yǒu shén me guān xì ？”
“这一切，和当初白先生的任务又有什么关系？”
The leopard let out a mournful cry and the illusion vanished instantly. The red liquid from the beast soul pearl dissolved into his body, like it had life, flowing to every part of his limbs.
yǒu tài duō de yí huò ， zàn shí bù dé ér zhī 。
有太多的疑惑，暂时不得而知。
Li Fan sensed an unusual energy attempting to invade his body, transforming his flesh.
“ dài xià cì de yǔn xiān jìng zhī lǚ ， yīng gāi néng jiě jué yī bù fèn de yí wèn 。”
“待下次的陨仙境之旅，应该能解决一部分的疑问。”
Unlike the纯粹强化 (pure strengthening) provided by his Refining Furnace Ten Thousand Phenomena Technique, the beast soul armor seemed to graft the power of a beast onto human form. While this temporarily enhanced abilities, it also tainted his physical form, making it impure.
“ kuài le 。” lǐ fán suàn le suàn shí jiān ， xīn zhōng àn dào 。
“快了。”李凡算了算时间，心中暗道。
"Detouring from the path."
jiāng fēng shēng bǎo hé shōu qǐ ， lǐ fán yòu qǔ chū yī méi zhù jī jí bié de shòu hún zhū lái 。
将封生宝盒收起，李凡又取出一枚筑基级别的兽魂珠来。
Li Fan shook his head as his hidden inner strength surged forth, expelling the invader almost instantly. The leopard's howl echoed in his ears again, and the red liquid transformed by the beast soul pearl evaporated at Li Fan's command.
kě yǐ shuō ， zhè cì dì guó rú cǐ dà fāng ， yuǎn chū hū lǐ fán de yì liào zhī wài 。
可以说，这次帝国如此大方，远出乎李凡的意料之外。
"It seems this is only suitable for those who cannot cultivate."
wǔ bǎi míng zhù jī 、 sì bǎi jiǔ shí míng jīn dān 、 jiǔ míng yuán yīng de shòu shén jiǎ zhàn lì ， rú guǒ lì yòng de hǎo ， dìng rán néng xiān qǐ bù xiǎo de fēng làng lái 。
五百名筑基、四百九十名金丹、九名元婴的兽神甲战力，如果利用的好，定然能掀起不小的风浪来。
"Or..."
suī rán zhǐ shì lǐ lùn shàng de zhàn lì shuǐ píng ， dàn shì dāng jīn de xuán huáng jiè ， xiū shì de shí jì zhàn lì yě shì dī de xià rén 。
虽然只是理论上的战力水平，但是当今的玄黄界，修士的实际战力也是低的吓人。
Li Fan's eyes flashed with a hint of curiosity. He thought about Ye Feipeng from his previous life, who had awakened the phoenix bloodline.
chú le jí gè bié zhuān xiū zhàn dòu zhī dào de xiū shì ， qí yú xún cháng rén ， huì jǐ shǒu gōng jī 、 bǎo mìng shù fǎ yǐ jīng liǎo bù dé le 。
除了极个别专修战斗之道的修士，其余寻常人，会几手攻击、保命术法已经了不得了。
"With my own beast bloodline, I naturally wouldn't be afraid of such pollution."
shòu shén jiǎ zhè zhǒng néng gòu yǐng xiǎng shén shí ， yòu néng dǐ dǎng jué dà duō shù fǎ shù gōng jī 、 sù dù yòu qí kuài de cún zài ， duì rú jīn de pǔ tōng xiū shì ér yán ， jué duì shì zhǒng dà shā qì 。
兽神甲这种能够影响神识，又能抵挡绝大多数法术攻击、速度又奇快的存在，对如今的普通修士而言，绝对是种大杀器。
"In this world, Zhengzhao is making a fortune following me. He won't be thinking about that smuggling business anymore."
“ zhǐ shì cǐ shì jù tǐ gāi rú hé shǐ yòng ， cái néng lì yì zuì dà huà ， hái xū hǎo hǎo sī liáng 。”
“只是此世具体该如何使用，才能利益最大化，还需好好思量。”
"Su Xiaomei and others are still within the界外 (outside the world), so without me, they likely wouldn't have had the chance to come here."
lǐ fán zàn qiě bǎ niàn tou yā xià ， shǒu zhōng wò zhe yī kē shòu hún zhū ， yìn rù méi xīn 。
李凡暂且把念头压下，手中握着一颗兽魂珠，印入眉心。
Li Fan smiled.
yǎn qián hū de yī piàn xuè hóng ， huǎng hū zhōng ， lǐ fán fǎng fú kàn dào yī zhī xiōng hěn de dú yǎn liè bào ， cháo zhe tā pū lái 。
眼前忽的一片血红，恍惚中，李凡仿佛看到一只凶狠的独眼猎豹，朝着他扑来。
"These little guys will surely play a big role in this world's drama."
“ hēng ！” lǐ fán yì niàn rú zhēn ， cháo zhe duì fāng cì qù 。
“哼！”李凡意念如针，朝着对方刺去。
With these thoughts, Li Fan rose from his seat, bid farewell to Tianyang, and stealthily made his way to 大离京城 (Great Departure Capital).
"封生宝盒，看来帝国果然是当年御兽宗的传承之地。"
With the protection of his Spiritual God Power, Li Fan finally felt at ease as he began to examine the收获 from this transaction with the empire.
The detailed profiles of numerous exotic beasts and the actual frozen entities within the封生宝盒 were not much use to other cultivators. But for Li Fan, who practiced 熔炉万象功 (Refining Furnace Ten Thousand Phenomena Technique), they constituted a vast treasure trove.
