第五百五十四章 屡屡逢生机

shí jiān huí dào xiàn zài ， kāng cūn rén mǎ sǐ shāng cǎn zhòng 。

时间回到现在，康村人马死伤惨重。

Time returned to the present, and Kan Village was left with heavy casualties.

àn zhōng kuī shì de sì yě shì yá zì yù liè 。

暗中窥视的姒也是睚眦欲裂。

Lady Si's eyes were nearly bulging from anger as she secretly observed. She never imagined that Han Yi could summon celestial flames like a deity, turning the plan to eliminate him into a failure. Not only had her scheme for his annihilation failed, but even Zhu Village, where she had lived and loved since childhood, was almost completely destroyed in this calamity.

tā gēn běn méi yǒu xiǎng dào ， hán yì zhēn de néng gòu xiàng shén líng bān ， zhāo lái tiān shàng xīng huǒ 。

他根本没有想到，韩易真的能够像神灵般，招来天上星火。

Familiar faces from the past now lay as broken, charred corpses. Anger, jealousy, resentment... all these emotions surged within Si's heart, culminating into a single voice: "Kill him! Kill him!"

bù jǐn jǐn shì wéi shā hán yì de jì huà shī bài le ， lián tā zì yòu shēng huó 、 rè ài de zhù cūn ， yě dōu zài zhè chǎng jié nàn zhōng jìn hū huǐ yú yí dàn 。

不仅仅是围杀韩易的计划失败了，连他自幼生活、热爱的杼村，也都在这场劫难中近乎毁于一旦。

In the vast darkness, Han Yi had vanished without a trace. However, Si, who had served as the High Priest for decades and possessed genuine means to connect with deities, was not lying. Although the fluctuations in Han Yi's body differed from those of his deity, she followed the faint residual energy in the air, tailing him until she caught up.

xǔ xǔ duō duō céng jīng shú xī de miàn kǒng ， yǐ rán chéng wéi le yī jù jù cán pò bù kān de jiāo shī 。

许许多多曾经熟悉的面孔，已然成为了一具具残破不堪的焦尸。

"Die! The so-called gods should never appear on this earth!"

fèn nù 、 jí dù 、 yuàn hèn ……

愤怒、嫉妒、怨恨……

Si's face twisted into a grotesque expression as she uttered her long-suppressed words. As she chanted, Han Yi was startled to see that the wind in the air began to converge towards her hands. Compressed to an extreme degree, it instantly shot at him.

zhǒng zhǒng qíng xù yǒng shàng sì de xīn tóu ， zuì zhōng zhǐ zhuǎn biàn chéng yí gè shēng yīn 。

种种情绪涌上姒的心头，最终只转变成一个声音。

"Is this how one can use fate for such purposes?"

“ shā le tā ！ shā le tā ！”

“杀了他！杀了他！”

Han Yi was both shocked and elated. Despite another wound slicing through his body, his eyes grew brighter as he dodged and learned Si's method of manipulating wind blades. By the time he was on the brink of death, he finally succeeded in summoning a wind blade.

máng máng yè sè zhōng ， hán yì yǐ jīng chè dǐ méi le zōng jì 。

茫茫夜色中，韩易已经彻底没了踪迹。

The color of his first wind blade was deeper than Si’s, and it had an even more imposing presence. It sliced through Si's wind blade with a howl before continuing its momentum to pierce her body, completing the counterattack.

dàn sì dān rèn dà jì sī jǐ shí zài ， lián tōng shén líng de shǒu duàn yě bìng fēi xū jiǎ 。

但姒担任大祭司几十载，联通神灵的手段也并非虚假。

Wounded but relieved, Han Yi fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, he found that his injuries had completely healed overnight.

suī rán hán yì shēn shàng de bō dòng ， hé tā gòng fèng de nà wèi shén qí yǒu suǒ qū bié 。 sì hái shì shùn zhe kōng qì zhōng de sī sī cán yú bō dòng ， yī lù wěi suí ， zuì zhōng zhuī shàng le hán yì 。

虽然韩易身上的波动，和他供奉的那位神祇有所区别。姒还是顺着空气中的丝丝残余波动，一路尾随，最终追上了韩易。

Without delving further into the reason, Han Yi continued fleeing into the wilderness. However, soon enough, he discovered that small teams were everywhere, hunting him down.

“ qù sǐ ba ！ suǒ wèi de shén líng ， gēn běn jiù bù yīng gāi chū xiàn zài dà dì zhī shàng ！”

“去死吧！所谓的神灵，根本就不应该出现在大地之上！”

The spectacle of falling meteors and the destruction of one village while another was severely damaged could not be hidden. Thus, the rumor of a deity descending to earth spread quickly through the wilderness.

sì miàn róng zhēng níng ， shuō chū le xīn zhōng yì zhí yā yì de huà yǔ 。

姒面容狰狞，说出了心中一直压抑的话语。

Whether Han Yi's divine identity was real or not, his ability to summon wind, rain, fire, and lightning was undeniable. Controlling him would bring unity to the wasteland both legally and in strength.

suí zhe tā kǒu zhōng bù duàn yín chàng ， hán yì hài rán de fā jué ， kōng qì zhōng de fēng zhèng bù duàn cháo zhe sì de shǒu zhōng huì jù 。

随着他口中不断吟唱，韩易骇然的发觉，空气中的风正不断朝着姒的手中汇聚。

Almost every tribe launched a pursuit for Han Yi, driven by their ambitions of becoming "emperors." His human appearance stood out too much in this land filled with beasts, making it impossible to hide.

bèi yā suō dào jí zhì zhī hòu ， shùn jiān cháo zhe hán yì dàn chū 。

被压缩到极致之后，瞬间朝着韩易弹出。

To save his life, Han Yi continued to flee. Fortunately, with fate protecting him, he was highly sensitive to danger. After battling Si, he also mastered the art of controlling the wind, though not as swiftly as a cultivator's flight techniques.

“ yuán lái tiān yùn hái kě yǐ zhè me yòng ？”

“原来天运还可以这么用？”

Despite being pursued relentlessly, Han Yi managed to evade capture due to his enhanced senses and speed.

hán yì jì jīng qiě xǐ 。

韩易既惊且喜。

---

jí biàn shēn shàng yòu bèi qiē gē chū le yī dào shāng kǒu ， hán yì de yǎn jīng què yuè lái yuè míng liàng 。

即便身上又被切割出了一道伤口，韩易的眼睛却越来越明亮。

"Wind, water, fire, lightning..."

tā yī biān shǎn duǒ ， yī biān gǎn yìng 、 xué xí zhe sì cāo zòng fēng rèn de fāng fǎ 。

他一边闪躲，一边感应、学习着姒操纵风刃的方法。

"These are all parts of the world. By harnessing fate, I can control these energies for combat."

zhí dào shēn shàng xiān xuè lín lí 、 yǎn yǎn yī xī zhī jì ， zhōng yú cháng shì chéng gōng 。

直到身上鲜血淋漓、奄奄一息之际，终于尝试成功。

According to The Book of Fate, early cultivators seemed to have been like this, seeking divine authority and controlling everything.

chū cì zhào huàn chū fēng rèn ， yán sè jiù bǐ sì shǐ yòng de yào gèng jiā shēn suì 。

初次召唤出风刃，颜色就比姒使用的要更加深邃。

"They called themselves 'technicians.'"

shēng shì yě gèng hào dà 。

声势也更浩大。

After years of evading danger in the wilderness, Han Yi lay in a newly dug cave, muttering to himself. A faint flame danced on his fingertips, illuminating the dark space around him.

yú kōng zhōng huà chū hū xiào shēng ， jiāng sì fā chū de fēng rèn jī kuì hòu ， yī rán shì tou bù jiǎn 。

于空中划出呼啸声，将姒发出的风刃击溃后，依然势头不减。

Even though this world lacked spiritual energy, he had accomplished what only cultivators could do.

zài duì fāng jīng è 、 bù gān de yǎn shén zhōng ， chuān tòu le tā de shēn tǐ ， wán chéng le fǎn shā 。

在对方惊愕、不甘的眼神中，穿透了他的身体，完成了反杀。

"If I fully integrate the shattered fate here, my power would be comparable to that of Eternal Heaven Sovereign in Xuanhuang Realm."

hún shēn shì shāng de hán yì sōng le kǒu qì ， chén chén shuì qù 。

浑身是伤的韩易松了口气，沉沉睡去。

With a glimmer of hope for the future, Han Yi suddenly felt the ground tremble.

děng tā xǐng lái hòu ， fā xiàn zì jǐ duǎn duǎn yí gè wǎn shàng ， jiù yǐ jīng shāng shì jǐn fù le 。

等他醒来后，发现自己短短一个晚上，就已经伤势尽复了。

"Bang!"

méi néng zhǎo dào yuán yīn suǒ zài ， hán yì yě méi yǒu shēn jiū 。

没能找到原因所在，韩易也没有深究。

"Bang!"

zhǐ shì jì xù cháo zhe huāng yě wú rén chù táo dùn 。

只是继续朝着荒野无人处逃遁。

Roaring footsteps approached from afar, growing louder and closer.

dàn hěn kuài ， tā jiù fā xiàn ， dào chù dōu shì zhèng zài sōu bǔ tā de xiǎo duì 。

但很快，他就发现，到处都是正在搜捕他的小队。

Han Yi's face paled as his sense of danger surged. He cursed under his breath before breaking through the earth, discerning a direction, and flying at high speed.

nà tiān wǎn shàng ， tiān jiàng yǔn xīng de chǎng jǐng shí zài shì tài guò zhuàng guān 。

那天晚上，天降陨星的场景实在是太过壮观。

Behind him, a massive white elephant pursued relentlessly.

yī cūn bèi huǐ 、 lìng wài yī cūn yuán qì dà shāng zhè zhǒng shì ， yě gēn běn mán bú zhù 。

一村被毁、另外一村元气大伤这种事，也根本瞒不住。

---

yú shì ，“ shén líng jiàng shì ” de chuán wén ， hěn kuài jiù zài huāng yě zhōng liú chuán kāi lái 。

于是，“神灵降世”的传闻，很快就在荒野中流传开来。

The elephant was large but moved swiftly, ignoring all obstacles in its path as it charged towards Han Yi. Despite Han Yi's mastery of wind techniques, he could not shake off the elephant.

qiě bù lùn hán yì de shén líng shēn fèn shì zhēn shì jiǎ 。

且不论韩易的神灵身份是真是假。

Their chase attracted the attention of surrounding beasts, who quickly spotted Han Yi and joined the hunt.

tā hū fēng huàn yǔ 、 huāng xīng zhuì dì de běn lǐng ， què shì zhēn de bù néng zài zhēn le 。

他呼风唤雨、荒星坠地的本领，却是真的不能再真了。

As more beasts closed in, Han Yi's available space diminished. Desperate, a fierce look flashed across his eyes. He had absorbed significant fate energy recently, enough to cause catastrophic disasters if fully unleashed, burying these pests alive.

rú guǒ néng jiāng tā kòng zhì zài shǒu zhōng ， yú fǎ lǐ 、 yú shí lì ， yī tǒng huāng yuán dōu bù zài shì mèng xiǎng 。

如果能将他控制在手中，于法理、于实力，一统荒原都不再是梦想。

However, such an action would not only nullify his efforts but also result in severe self-harm.

wèi le chéng jiù “ dì ” wèi de yě wàng ， jī hū měi gè bù luò ， dōu duì hán yì fā qǐ le zhuī bǔ 。

为了成就“帝”位的野望，几乎每个部落，都对韩易发起了追捕。

Just as Han Yi hesitated, he sensed a faint spiritual energy fluctuation around him.

ér chún cuì rén lèi de yàng mào ， zài zhè yāo shòu biàn dì de huāng yě shàng ， yě shì tài guò xiǎn yǎn 。

而纯粹人类的样貌，在这妖兽遍地的荒野上，也是太过显眼。

Though weak, it was unmistakable for Han Yi, who had long been deprived of spiritual energy. The presence of spiritual energy meant the ability to cast spells.

gēn běn wú fǎ zhē yǎn 。

根本无法遮掩。

Even the weakest术士 techniques were beyond these beasts!

hán yì wèi le bǎo zhù zì jǐ de xiǎo mìng ， zhǐ dé yì zhí láng bèi táo cuàn 。

韩易为了保住自己的小命，只得一直狼狈逃窜。

Overjoyed, Han Yi followed the direction of the spiritual energy and dashed towards a deep ravine.

hǎo zài yǒu tiān yùn hù tǐ ， duì yú wēi jī de gǎn yìng shí fēn mǐn ruì 。

好在有天运护体，对于危机的感应十分敏锐。

"Here..."

ér qiě zì cóng hé sì yī zhàn hòu ， chú le fēng rèn zhī wài ， hán yì yòu lǐng wù le yù fēng zhī fǎ 。

而且自从和姒一战后，除了风刃之外，韩易又领悟了御风之法。

Han Yi was thrilled as he felt the faint but steady flow of spiritual energy stopping just outside the ravine.

suī bǐ bù dé xiū shì de fēi dùn zhī shù lái de xùn sù ， dàn bǐ qǐ dān chún de shuāng jiǎo zǒu lù ， hái shì yào kuài shàng bù shǎo 。

虽比不得修士的飞遁之术来的迅速，但比起单纯的双脚走路，还是要快上不少。

"This place seems to be a passage to Xuanhuang Realm?"

yīn cǐ hán yì suī rán bèi zhuī bǔ de yǒu xiē láng bèi ， què yě yì zhí méi yǒu bèi zhuō zhù 。

因此韩易虽然被追捕的有些狼狈，却也一直没有被捉住。

Since arriving in this small world, Han Yi had been constantly thinking about returning to Xuanhuang Realm. However, he found no way back after searching Zhu Village.

-----------------

-----------------

This small world was vast, and finding a return path alone would have been like searching for a needle in a haystack.

“ fēng 、 shuǐ 、 huǒ 、 léi ……”

“风、水、火、雷……”

Today's desperate situation led him to accidentally discover the path home.

“ dōu shì shì jiè de yī bù fèn 。 jiè zhù tiān yùn ， wǒ biàn kě yǐ duì zhè xiē néng liàng de zhǎng kòng 。 yòng lái shā dí ， bù chéng wèn tí 。”

“都是世界的一部分。借助天运，我便可以对这些能量的掌控。用来杀敌，不成问题。”

"Indeed, heaven does not forsake me!"

“ jù 《 tiān yùn jīng 》 zhōng jì zǎi ， zuì chū de xiū shì ， sì hū biàn shì zhè fù mú yàng 。 qí qiú tiān zhī bǐng quán ， cāo zòng wàn wù 。”

“据《天运经》中记载，最初的修士，似乎便是这副模样。祈求天之柄权，操纵万物。”

Looking at the beasts chasing him, Han Yi sneered. "When I return and become powerful enough, I'll come back here to settle accounts with you all!"

“ dāng shí tā men sì hū zì chēng wèi 【 shù shì 】。”

“当时他们似乎自称为【术士】。”

With that thought, he dived into the deep ravine below.
