chuán fǎ tiān zūn sǐ le 。
传法天尊死了。
The Sage of Transmission had died.
dāng gǎo qīng chǔ zì jǐ shì chóng shēng dào le ， xiān dào shí zōng wēi yā tiān xià 、 xīn fǎ shàng wèi dàn shēng de shàng gǔ xiū xiān jiè zhī shí ， yí gè dà dǎn de niàn tou jiù zài qiáo shì dào de xīn tóu fú xiàn 。
当搞清楚自己是重生到了，仙道十宗威压天下、新法尚未诞生的上古修仙界之时，一个大胆的念头就在乔似道的心头浮现。
When Qiao Sidi realized he was reborn into a time when the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao dominated the world and new techniques were yet to be born, a bold thought emerged in his mind.
tā yào zhuī suí chuán fǎ tiān zūn ， chéng wéi zuì chū de nà jǐ wèi chuán fǎ zhě zhī yī ！
他要追随传法天尊，成为最初的那几位传法者之一！
He wanted to follow the Sage of Transmission and become one of the initial transmitters!
bié kàn xiàn zài xiān dào shí zōng rú rì zhōng tiān 。
别看现在仙道十宗如日中天。
Though the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao now reigned supreme, Qiao Sidi, who was well-versed in future events, knew that this seemingly eternal rule would crumble before the new techniques sweeping across the world.
shú zhī wèi lái zǒu xiàng de qiáo shì dào shí fēn qīng chǔ ， zhè kàn shì wàn shì yǒng gù de tǒng zhì ， zài hào hào dàng dàng de xīn fǎ cháo liú miàn qián ， gēn běn bù kān yī jī ！
熟知未来走向的乔似道十分清楚，这看似万世永固的统治，在浩浩荡荡的新法潮流面前，根本不堪一击！
Soon enough, a massive army of new technique cultivators, swift and powerful beyond imagination, would follow the Sage of Transmission to destroy the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao and establish the Great Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals for countless ages.
yào bù le duō jiǔ ， lüè tiān duó dì 、 xiū xíng sù dù kuài dào xià rén de xīn fǎ xiū shì dà jūn ， jiāng huì zài chuán fǎ tiān zūn de dài lǐng xià ， cuī kū lā xiǔ ， fù miè xiān dào shí zōng ， chuàng jiàn yī tǒng xuán huáng wàn wàn zài de wěi dà wàn xiān méng 。
要不了多久，掠天夺地、修行速度快到吓人的新法修士大军，将会在传法天尊的带领下，摧枯拉朽，覆灭仙道十宗，创建一统玄黄万万载的伟大万仙盟。
And great merit lay in following the Dragon.
ér gōng mò dà yú cóng lóng 。
而功莫大于从龙。
If he could surrender before the Sage of Transmission rose to power, his future position within the highest governing body of the Great Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, the Transmission Council, was assured!
rú guǒ zì jǐ qiǎng zài chuán fǎ tiān zūn fā jì zhī qián ， jiù zhǔ dòng tóu chéng 。
如果自己抢在传法天尊发迹之前，就主动投诚。
...
nà me wèi lái chuán fǎ shén yóu tiān wài zhī hòu ， wàn xiān méng de zuì gāo tǒng zhì jī gòu 【 chuán fǎ yì huì 】， dìng rán huì yǒu zì jǐ de yī xí zhī dì ！
那么未来传法神游天外之后，万仙盟的最高统治机构【传法议会】，定然会有自己的一席之地！
Qiao Sidi had planned this way and acted accordingly. He abandoned his hard-won inner sect disciple status in the Seven Stars Sect and trekked through the heartland of Immortal Land to reach the frontier region of Cunyun Lake.
……
……
After patiently waiting for over a decade, he finally welcomed the great Sage of Transmission...
qiáo shì dào yuán běn shì zhè me xiǎng de 。
乔似道原本是这么想的。
No, it should now be called the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign.
yě shì zhè me zuò de 。
也是这么做的。
News of the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign bestowing teachings had spread in nearby regions not long ago. But at this moment, his fame was still unobtrusive. Suddenly claiming to teach and benefit all under heaven... how many would believe him?
pāo què le yuán shēn hǎo bù róng yì zhēng qǔ lái de qī xīng zōng nèi mén dì zǐ shēn fèn ， cóng xiān lù fù dì bá shān shè shuǐ ， lái dào biān huāng zhī dì de cóng yún zé 。
抛却了原身好不容易争取来的七星宗内门弟子身份，从仙陆腹地跋山涉水，来到边荒之地的丛云泽。
Before him stood only a dozen or so cultivators who had come to see the spectacle.
nài xīn děng dài le shí duō nián ， zhōng yú yíng lái le wěi dà de chuán fǎ tiān ……
耐心等待了十多年，终于迎来了伟大的传法天……
Qiao Sidi hurriedly took a seat in the front row, hoping to make himself familiar. He surveyed his surroundings, knowing that these were future leaders of the Great Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, and his heart raced.
bù ， xiàn zài yīng gāi hái shì jiào chuán fǎ xiān zūn cái shì 。
不，现在应该还是叫传法仙尊才是。
When the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign cast his gaze upon him, Qiao Sidi's heart stopped, and he immediately composed himself, no longer daring to look around.
xiān zūn shòu fǎ de xiāo xī ， bù jiǔ qián yǐ jīng zài zhōu biān dì qū chuán kāi 。
仙尊授法的消息，不久前已经在周边地区传开。
Three days later, only about thirty cultivators had gathered on this small island in Cunyun Lake.
dàn cǐ shí xiān zūn míng qì bù xiǎn 。
但此时仙尊名气不显。
The Sage of Transmission paid no mind. He sat cross-legged and began high-level discussions.
tū rán shuō yào chuán fǎ ， zé bèi tiān xià ……
突然说要传法，泽被天下……
From the Xuanhuang universe and daoist principles, to the human body's mysteries and the secrets of essence and qi, he spoke of the myriad connections between worlds and all living beings. His words captivated every cultivator present, leaving them entranced.
yòu yǒu jǐ rén huì xìn ne ？
又有几人会信呢？
As the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign continued teaching, strange phenomena appeared in the sky. Purple energy flowed from the horizon, shimmering under golden light, exuding an aura of sanctity. Even at night, purple-golden energy could be seen for hundreds of miles around the island.
cǐ shí tā de shēn qián ， zhǐ yǒu wén xùn ér lái 、 dǎ suàn còu gè rè nào de shí duō míng xiū shì 。
此时他的身前，只有闻讯而来、打算凑个热闹的十多名修士。
More and more cultivators were drawn by the sight of the Sage of Transmission teaching. They spread the word, flocking to the island in droves.
qiáo shì dào qiǎng zhe zuò zài le zuì qián pái zhōng yāng de wèi zhì ， xiǎng yào hùn gè liǎn shú 。
乔似道抢着坐在了最前排中央的位置，想要混个脸熟。
Before them, they dared not act rashly; with so many cultivators already occupying positions, they had to find seats at the back. Once immersed in his teachings, however, they regretted their late arrival, missing out on countless profound explanations.
tā duān xiáng zuǒ yòu ， xiǎng dào zhè xiē rén rì hòu jiù shì zhí zhǎng wàn xiān méng bǐng quán de jǐ dà chuán fǎ zhě ， xīn tiào dùn shí jiā sù le jǐ fēn 。
他端详左右，想到这些人日后就是执掌万仙盟柄权的几大传法者，心跳顿时加速了几分。
The number of cultivators on the island grew until there were more than ten thousand.
dāng chuán fǎ xiān zūn tóu lái mù guāng hòu ， qiáo shì dào xīn zàng zhòu tíng ， dùn shí shōu liǎn 。
当传法仙尊投来目光后，乔似道心脏骤停，顿时收敛。
Then, the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign said:
bù gǎn zài dōng zhāng xī wàng 。
不敢再东张西望。
"Need we seek heaven when we become immortals? If not given by heaven, take it ourselves!"
sān rì zhī hòu ， zhè cóng yún zé de yī fāng xiǎo dǎo shàng ， yě zhǐ bù guò jù jí le sān shí duō míng xiū shì bà le 。
三日之后，这丛云泽的一方小岛上，也只不过聚集了三十多名修士罢了。
"Follow the ways of heaven and be mortal; defy them and ascend to immortality!"
chuán fǎ què bìng bù zài yì 。
传法却并不在意。
"Therefore, the path of Immortal Dao is:
xí dì ér zuò ， kāi shǐ gāo tán lùn dào 。
席地而坐，开始高谈论道。
Absorb the spirit of heaven and earth to control their qi;
Leverage the wonders of heaven and earth to build a dao foundation;
Glimpse the laws of heaven and earth to refine golden pills;
Seize the essence of heaven and earth to form an original embryo;
Draw out the marrow of heaven and earth to achieve divine power;
Offer sacrifices to the soul of heaven and earth, merging body with Dao;
Defy the order of heaven and earth to attain eternal life!"
cóng xuán huáng tiān dì 、 fǎ zé xiān lǐ ， dào rén tǐ xuán jī 、 jīng qì mì cáng ， zài jiǎng dào shì jiè hé wàn wù shēng líng jiān de zhǒng zhǒng guān lián 。
从玄黄天地、法则仙理，到人体玄机、精气密藏，再讲到世界和万物生灵间的种种关联。
...
wěi wěi dào lái ， shǐ zài chǎng xiū shì ， wú bù tīng dé rú chī rú zuì 。
娓娓道来，使在场修士，无不听得如痴如醉。
After laying down these principles, the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign went on to detail each realm. The entire island was left speechless by his teachings.
suí zhe chuán fǎ xiān zūn de bù duàn jiǎng shù ， tiān shàng yě shì zhǒng zhǒng yì xiàng xiǎn xiàn 。
随着传法仙尊的不断讲述，天上也是种种异象显现。
Immortals could be cultivated in such a manner!
gǔn gǔn zǐ qì zì tiān biān ér lái ， zài kōng zhōng jīn guāng de yìng zhào xià ， xiǎn de shén shèng bù fán 。
滚滚紫气自天边而来，在空中金光的映照下，显得神圣不凡。
Qiao Sidi's blood boiled as he listened. These cultivators were precisely those who had used this new technique to overthrow the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao and establish the Great Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals.
nǎ pà zài yè jiān ， wàn xiān dǎo shàng yě shì zǐ jīn zhī qì bù jué 。 shù bǎi lǐ zhī wài dōu kě yuǎn yuǎn qiáo jiàn 。
哪怕在夜间，万仙岛上也是紫金之气不绝。数百里之外都可远远瞧见。
As if reliving history, Qiao Sidi felt himself part of it.
yú shì ， yǒu yuè lái yuè duō de xiū shì ， bèi xiān zūn chuán fǎ de jǐng xiàng suǒ xī yǐn 。
于是，有越来越多的修士，被仙尊传法的景象所吸引。
However, he never expected that when the Sage of Transmission was teaching, a cold snort echoed across the heavens, interrupting his lecture.
bēn zǒu xiāng gào jiān ， bù duàn cháo zhe dǎo shàng yǒng lái 。
奔走相告间，不断朝着岛上涌来。
"Words to deceive the masses!"
chuán fǎ xiān zūn miàn qián ， tā men yě bù gǎn zào cì 。 qián miàn yǐ jīng bèi céng céng xiū shì zhàn jù ， tā men zhǐ dé āi gè zài hòu miàn zhǎo gè wèi zhì zuò xià 。
传法仙尊面前，他们也不敢造次。前面已经被层层修士占据，他们只得挨个在后面找个位置坐下。
"Cultivators should not seek to exploit heaven and earth. Instead, they should be content with what is given."
ér děng tā men chén jìn rù chuán fǎ jiǎng dào zhī hòu ， fēn fēn biàn dé wú bǐ hòu huǐ qǐ lái 。
而等他们沉浸入传法讲道之后，纷纷变得无比后悔起来。
"What makes them any better than beasts?"
hòu huǐ zì jǐ wèi shén me bù zǎo diǎn qián lái ， yǐ zhì yú cuò guò le zhī qián nà me duō xuán miào jué lún de jiǎng jiě 。
后悔自己为什么不早点前来，以致于错过了之前那么多玄妙绝伦的讲解。
The voice boomed like thunder, reverberating through the air.
dǎo shàng huì jù de xiū shì yuè lái yuè duō 。
岛上汇聚的修士越来越多。
The cultivators on the island were both shocked and enraged by this sudden interruption.
zuì zhōng yǒu le shàng wàn zhī yú 。
最终有了上万之余。
"Who dares speak so recklessly?"
zhè shí hòu ， chuán fǎ xiān zūn zhè cái shuō dào 。
这时候，传法仙尊这才说道。
Qiao Sidi watched with a sense of anticipation. He knew that the Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign had dominated the world for thousands of years, virtually invincible.
“ wú bèi chéng xiān ， hé bì qiú tiān ？ tiān ruò bù yǔ ， kě zì qù qǔ ！”
“吾辈成仙，何必求天？天若不予，可自去取！”
This person daring to challenge him was courting death!
“ shùn tiān zé fán ， nì tiān zé xiān ！”
“顺天则凡，逆天则仙！”
But as his gaze fell on something else, he felt a twinge of unease.
“ gù xiān dào yī tú ， nǎi ：
“故仙道一途，乃：
The Sage of Transmission Immortal Sovereign suddenly stood up, his face grave.
xī tiān dì zhī líng ， yǐ yù qí qì ；
吸天地之灵，以御其气；
"Still do not know your name?"
jiǎ tiān dì zhī qí ， yǐ zhù dào jī ；
假天地之奇，以筑道基；
"The dao has myriad paths..." the Sage of Transmission gestured with both hands, about to speak. But was abruptly cut off again.
kuī tiān dì zhī fǎ ， yǐ liàn jīn dān ；
窥天地之法，以炼金丹；
"Words are meaningless! Those who spread heretical doctrines under the rule of the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao."
duó tiān dì zhī jīng ， yǐ chéng yuán yīng ；
夺天地之精，以成元婴；
"Die!"
chōu tiān dì zhī suǐ ， yǐ dé qí shén ；
抽天地之髓，以得其神；
With a roar, the speaker revealed his form.
jì tiān dì zhī pò ， yǐ shēn hé dào ；
祭天地之魄，以身合道；
A boy no older than ten, clad in bright golden armor and wearing a red ribbon, wielded a silver spear. He did not look like a cultivator but more like a mortal warrior.
nì tiān dì zhī lǐ ， yǐ zhèng cháng shēng ！”
逆天地之理，以证长生！”
"Remember this day; those who die today are from the Creation Sect, Wu!"
……
……
As he spoke, the silver spear descended from the sky.
kāi zōng míng yì zhī hòu ， chuán fǎ xiān zūn yòu xiáng xì jiǎng jiě qǐ gè gè jìng jiè de xì jié lái 。
开宗明义之后，传法仙尊又详细讲解起各个境界的细节来。
...
zhí bǎ mǎn dǎo de xiū shì ， tīng dé zhèn hàn wú yán 。
直把满岛的修士，听得震撼无言。
"Ridiculous brat..."
yuán lái ， xiān hái kě yǐ zhè me xiū ！
原来，仙还可以这么修！
The Sage of Transmission snorted and lightly extended his right index finger to strike him down. But...
ér qiáo shì dào ， gèng shì tīng de rè xuè fèi téng 。
而乔似道，更是听的热血沸腾。
Silver light flashed like lightning, instantly piercing through the Sage of Transmission's body.
xū zhī ， zài chǎng de zhè xiē xiū shì men ， zhèng shì kào zhe zhè tào lüè tiān duó dì de xīn fǎ ， zuì zhōng cái zài rì hòu tuī fān le xiān dào shí zōng ， jiàn lì le wěi dà de wàn xiān méng 。
须知，在场的这些修士们，正是靠着这套掠天夺地的新法，最终才在日后推翻了仙道十宗，建立了伟大的万仙盟。
With unrestrained force, it crashed into the ground.
fǎng fú qīn shēn chù zài lì shǐ dà cháo zhī zhōng ， qiáo shì dào zhǐ gǎn jué zì jǐ yǐ jīng chéng le lì shǐ de yī bù fèn 。
仿佛亲身处在历史大潮之中，乔似道只感觉自己已经成了历史的一部分。
"Boom!"
rán ér ， ràng tā wàn wàn méi xiǎng dào de shì 。
然而，让他万万没想到的是。
In the Sage of Transmission's incredulous eyes, the entire Immortal Land Island was reduced to dust in an instant.
chuán fǎ tiān zūn shòu dào zhèng zài guān jiàn shí hòu ， jiǎng dào 【 nì tiān dì zhī lǐ 】。
传法天尊授道正在关键时候，讲到【逆天地之理】。
The massive silver shockwave obliterated the island and swept towards Cunyun Lake. Within a few breaths, the vast Cunyun Lake was devoid of any life.
yī dào lěng hēng shēng ， hū de xiǎng chè tiān dì jiān ， dǎ duàn le chuán fǎ de jiǎng huà 。
一道冷哼声，忽的响彻天地间，打断了传法的讲话。
Only silver serpents danced in the void.
“ yāo yán huò zhòng ！”
“妖言惑众！”
"Insanity!"
“ tiān dì shēng yǎng wàn wù ， xiū shì bù sī bào dá yě jiù bà le ， fǎn ér yào xíng rú cǐ è liè lüè duó zhī jǔ 。”
“天地生养万物，修士不思报答也就罢了，反而要行如此恶劣掠夺之举。”
Qiao Sidi's consciousness fading away, he heard Wu's cold snort and the Sage of Transmission's slowly vanishing figure...
“ yòu gēn qín shòu hé yì ？”
“又跟禽兽何异？”
...
shēng rú zhà léi ， bù duàn huí dàng 。
声如炸雷，不断回荡。
When Qiao Sidi woke up from the darkness, he found himself back at the initial point of his rebirth. Outer sect disciples of the Seven Stars Sect were frantically preparing for inner sect examinations.
bèi tū rán dǎ duàn ， dǎo shàng tīng fǎ de xiū shì ， zì rán shì yòu jīng yòu nù 。
被突然打断，岛上听法的修士，自然是又惊又怒。
But now, his mind was preoccupied with countless questions.
“ nǎ lái bù zhī sǐ huó de xiū shì ？”
“哪来不知死活的修士？”
Why?
qiáo shì dào gèng shì yī fù kàn hǎo xì de xīn tài 。
乔似道更是一副看好戏的心态。
The Sage of Transmission had fallen so easily!
tā kě shì zhī dào ， chuán fǎ tiān zūn wēi yā shì jiān shù qiān zài ， kān chēng jǔ shì wú dí 。
他可是知道，传法天尊威压世间数千载，堪称举世无敌。
Who was Wu?
zhè chū yán tiǎo xìn zhī rén ， kě bú shì zhǎo sǐ me ？
这出言挑衅之人，可不是找死么？
He had never heard of him before...
rán ér ， tā mù guāng wú yì jiān piē guò de yí mù ， què shì ràng tā xīn zhōng yǐn yǐn yǒu xiē bù ān qǐ lái 。
然而，他目光无意间撇过的一幕，却是让他心中隐隐有些不安起来。
Innumerable doubts swirled in his heart. Despite days passing, Qiao Sidi still could not find a reasonable explanation.
cǐ shí de chuán fǎ xiān zūn ， huò rán qǐ shēn 。
此时的传法仙尊，豁然起身。
Since this world's history diverged from his memories, he must carefully consider the future.
liǎn shàng mǎn shì níng zhòng zhī sè 。
脸上满是凝重之色。
With such a formidable figure as Wu, the Great Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals would never rise to prominence.
“ hái bù zhī dào yǒu míng hào ？”
“还不知道友名号？”
Though he felt some regret, knowing when to adapt was wisdom. Qiao Sidi decided to align himself with the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao in this life.
“ suǒ wèi dà dào sān qiān ……” chuán fǎ gǒng le gǒng shǒu ， zhèng yù shuō huà 。
“所谓大道三千……”传法拱了拱手，正欲说话。
But something unexpected happened.
què bèi duì fāng zài cì cū bào dǎ duàn 。
却被对方再次粗暴打断。
In his previous life, a single spear had ended the Sage of Transmission's life. In this life, Wu did not exist at all.
“ duō shuō wú yì ！ xiān dào shí zōng zhì xià ， chuán bō yì duān xié shuō zhě 。”
“多说无益！仙道十宗治下，传播异端邪说者。”
Without his exploits on Immortal Land Island, new techniques spread like wildfire across Xuanhuang within just a few years, unstoppable and overwhelming.
“ sǐ ！”
“死！”
Qiao Sidi, as cannon fodder for the Ten Sects of Immortal Dao in their war against the Great Alliance, lost his life once again.
suí zhe yī shēng bào hē ， shuō huà zhī rén yě xiǎn chū shēn xíng 。
随着一声暴喝，说话之人也显出身形。
(End of chapter)
The Sage of Transmission had died.
