yīn wèi bù jǐn xiàn rú jīn zhǎo bú dào rèn hé guān yú tā men de jì lù ， shèn zhì lián zì shàng gǔ xiū xiān jiè kuà yuè shí guāng ér lái de yào wáng zōng zhòng rén 。
因为不仅现如今找不到任何关于他们的记录，甚至连自上古修仙界跨越时光而来的药王宗众人。
Because not only were there no records of them in the present day, but even among those who had crossed through time from the ancient cultivation world to Great Xuan Kingdom.
duì yú tiān yī tā men yě shì yī wú suǒ zhī 。
对于天医他们也是一无所知。
For Tianyi and his companions, they knew nothing about these people. This was rather unusual and made one wonder about their origins. After all, such powerful individuals would not remain unknown.
zhè jiù shí fēn fǎn cháng le ， bù dé bù ràng rén huái yí tā men de lái lì 。 yīn wèi shì zhè děng qiáng zhě ， jué bú huì jí jí wú míng 。
这就十分反常了，不得不让人怀疑他们的来历。因为似这等强者，绝不会籍籍无名。
"If this is true, then many things can be explained."
“ rú guǒ shì zhè yàng de huà ， nà me hěn duō shì qíng jiù néng jiě shì de tōng le 。”
“如果是这样的话，那么很多事情就能解释的通了。”
"When I tried to form a Golden Core using the [Heavenly Defilement Technique] and the [瀚海 Technique], I felt a致命危机. If I had only relied on these two techniques, it would have inevitably led to an attack from heaven and earth. Only by adding other rule perceptions like Blue Flame and Black Murder could I stabilize my Golden Core. The Heavenly Defilement and瀚海 Techniques that I imitated were not from the Xuanhuang Realm."
“ dāng chū wǒ yù yǐ 【 tiān shā zhī fǎ 】 hé 【 hàn hǎi zhī fǎ 】 jié dān de shí hòu ， què gǎn shòu dào le zhì mìng wēi jī 。 rú guǒ dān chún yǐ cǐ èr zhě jié dān ， nà me shì bì huì yíng lái tiān dì fǎn shì 。 wéi yǒu zài jiā shàng lán yán 、 mò shā děng qí yú fǎ zé gǎn wù ， cái néng jiāng jīn dān wěn dìng 。 yīn wèi wǒ guān mó xiào páng de tiān shā 、 hàn hǎi zhī fǎ ， běn jiù bú shì xuán huáng jiè zhī fǎ 。”
“当初我欲以【天煞之法】和【瀚海之法】结丹的时候，却感受到了致命危机。如果单纯以此二者结丹，那么势必会迎来天地反噬。唯有再加上蓝炎、墨杀等其余法则感悟，才能将金丹稳定。因为我观摩效彷的天煞、瀚海之法，本就不是玄黄界之法。”
"If I had forcibly used these two techniques to form a Golden Core, perhaps I would have been treated as a pure outsider by heaven and earth. What would happen...?"
“ ruò shì qiáng xíng yǐ cǐ èr zhě jié dān ， huò xǔ jiù bèi tiān dì dàng zuò chún cuì de wài lái zhě 。 xià chǎng me ……”
“若是强行以此二者结丹，或许就被天地当做纯粹的外来者。下场么……”
Li Fan's mind flashed through several scenes of Cunyun Sea being completely destroyed.
lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng shùn jiān shǎn guò shù fù cóng yún hǎi bèi huǐ yú yí dàn de huà miàn 。
李凡脑海中瞬间闪过数副丛云海被毁于一旦的画面。
"This might be why Cunyun Sea must die."
“ zhè huò xǔ jiù shì cóng yún hǎi ， bì xū sǐ de yuán yīn 。”
“这或许就是丛云海，必须死的原因。”
"An existence not from the Xuanhuang Realm relying on its sustenance to grow stronger, like an alien object in one’s body that needs to be removed as soon as possible."
“ bù shǔ yú xuán huáng jiè de cún zài ， què yī kào xuán huáng jiè de jǐ yǎng ， rì yì fán shèng 。 rú tóng chā zài tǐ nèi de yì wù ， shì bì yào chú zhī ér hòu kuài 。”
“不属于玄黄界的存在，却依靠玄黄界的给养，日益繁盛。如同插在体内的异物，势必要除之而后快。”
"But, Zhang Haobo was able to successfully establish a foundation with Heavenly Defilement intent. This shows that these former outsiders are gradually being transformed into part of the Xuanhuang Realm."
“ dàn ， dāng rì de zhāng hào bō néng yǐ tiān shā jiàn yì chéng gōng zhù jī ， què yòu shuō míng ， zhè xiē céng jīng de wài lái zhě ， zhèng zài zhú jiàn bèi zhuǎn huà wèi xuán huáng jiè de yī bù fèn 。”
“但，当日的张浩波能以天煞剑意成功筑基，却又说明，这些曾经的外来者，正在逐渐被转化为玄黄界的一部分。”
"Just like how Cunyun Sea recovered after being eradicated by Red Flame and Black Murder, it seems that heaven and earth's hostility towards it would be greatly reduced."
“ jiù xiàng bèi chì yán 、 mò shā miè jué guò yī cì ， yòu chóng xīn huī fù shēng jī de cóng yún hǎi 。 sì hū tiān dì duì qí de dí yì jiù huì dà dà jiàng dī 。”
“就像被赤炎、墨杀灭绝过一次，又重新恢复生机的丛云海。似乎天地对其的敌意就会大大降低。”
"Interaction and fusion...?"
“ jiē chù 、 róng hé me ……”
“接触、融合么……”
When Zhang Haobo was identified as the murderer who destroyed Cloud Water Heavenly Palace in the Cloud Water Sky Palace, he had said: "Heavenly Defilement Heavy Armament can only be used by the Heaven Severing Venerable. No one else can touch it."
lǐ fán ruò yǒu suǒ sī 。
李凡若有所思。
Originally, Li Fan thought that he meant the two characters 'Heavenly Defilement'. After all, when Zhang Haobo died, the heavenly signs showed his Dao Foundation as Heavenly Defilement Intent. And one of Li Fan's Nine Techniques was indeed Heavenly Defilement.
dāng rì zài yún shuǐ tiān gōng nèi ， hàn hǎi zhǐ rèn yú fù wèi tú miè yún shuǐ tiān gōng mǎn mén de xiōng shǒu shí ， céng jīng rú cǐ shuō dào ：“ tiān shā zhòng qì ， chú le tiān jué zūn zhě wài ， zài wú rén kě yǐ dòng yòng 。”
当日在云水天宫内，瀚海指认渔父为屠灭云水天宫满门的凶手时，曾经如此说道：“天杀重器，除了天绝尊者外，再无人可以动用。”
Now it seems that in Tianyi’s original world, Heavenly Defilement might have been Heavenly Defeat.
yuán běn ， lǐ fán yǐ wéi tā suǒ shuō de shì 【 tiān shā 】 èr zì 。 bì jìng xī rì zhāng hào bō yǔn luò shí ， tiān dì yì xiàng xiǎn xiàn de zhāng hào bō de dào jī ， jiù shì 【 tiān shā jiàn yì 】。 ér lǐ fán de jiǔ fǎ zhī yī ， jiù shì tiān shā zhī fǎ 。
原本，李凡以为他所说的是【天煞】二字。毕竟昔日张浩波陨落时，天地异象显现的张浩波的道基，就是【天煞剑意】。而李凡的九法之一，就是天煞之法。
However, after they arrived in the Xuanhuang Realm, their own rules began to evolve towards those of the realm.
xiàn zài kàn lái ， huò xǔ zài tiān yī yuán běn de shì jiè ， tiān shā céng wèi 【 tiān shā 】。
现在看来，或许在天医原本的世界，天煞曾为【天杀】。
Thus, some differences emerged.
bù guò dāng tā men lái dào xuán huáng jiè hòu ， zì shēn de fǎ zé yǔ xuán huáng jiè fǎ zé fā shēng le qū tóng xìng yǎn biàn 。
不过当他们来到玄黄界后，自身的法则与玄黄界法则发生了趋同性演变。
Li Fan also thought about how the Xuanhuang Realm had nearly doubled in size compared to ancient times. While it plundered other realms and worlds to avoid being devoured by the Realm of Immortals, there were conflicts between different world rules.
yú shì jiù yǒu xiē xǔ chā yì dàn shēng 。
于是就有些许差异诞生。
This might be where the world's 'strange' phenomena came from.
lǐ fán yòu xiǎng dào ， rú jīn de xuán huáng jiè ， bǐ zhī shàng gǔ zhī shí ， jī hū péng zhàng le yī quān 。
李凡又想到，如今的玄黄界，比之上古之时，几乎膨胀了一圈。
---
lüè duó qí tā dòng tiān 、 shì jiè ， bì miǎn bèi xiān xū tūn shì mìng yùn de tóng shí 。
掠夺其他洞天、世界，避免被仙墟吞噬命运的同时。
"Could Tianye’s amnesia and Cloud Water Heavenly Palace turning strange be due to the fusion of worlds?"
shì jiè yǔ shì jiè jiān yòu yǒu bù tóng de fǎ zé chōng tū 。
世界与世界间又有不同的法则冲突。
"If so, then the power of [Tianyi] who remained unharmed during this process would seem even more terrifying."
zhè huò xǔ jiù shì shì shàng 【 guǐ yì 】 de lái yuán 。
这或许就是世上【诡异】的来源。
"And Tianyi has lived for thousands of years. The mysterious realms in the white fog are clearly related to him. I wonder what he is planning."
“ tiān jué de shī yì 。 tiān yù 、 yún shuǐ tiān gōng zhòng biàn chéng guǐ yì ， huì bú huì jiù shì shòu dào shì jiè róng hé de yǐng xiǎng ？”
“天绝的失忆。天谕、云水天宫众变成诡异，会不会就是受到世界融合的影响？”
The most bizarre thing was the reaction of the several Everlasting Venerable Immortals from Xuanhuang Realm.
“ zhè me yī lái ， zài zhè ge guò chéng zhōng ān rán wú yàng de 【 tiān yī 】， shí lì jiù xiǎn de yuè fā kǒng bù le 。”
“这么一来，在这个过程中安然无恙的【天医】，实力就显得越发恐怖了。”
I wouldn’t believe that they were completely unaware of Tianyi’s actions, but why did they remain indifferent? Was it a deal or...
“ ér qiě ， tiān yī huó le shù qiān nián ， bái wù zhōng zhǒng zhǒng guǐ yì de mí yù ， yòu míng xiǎn gēn tā yǒu guān 。 bù zhī dào tā dào dǐ zài móu huà zhe xiē shén me 。”
“而且，天医活了数千年，白雾中种种诡异的迷域，又明显跟他有关。不知道他到底在谋划着些什么。”
Tianyi's face appeared in Xu Bai's mind. After some time, he shook his head slightly and temporarily suppressed all thoughts.
“ zuì qí guài de shì ， xuán huáng jiè jǐ wèi cháng shēng tiān zūn de fǎn yìng 。 rú guǒ shuō tā men duì tiān yī de xiǎo dòng zuò ， yī wú suǒ zhī 。 wǒ shì kěn dìng bù xìn de ， dàn piān piān tā men shǐ zhōng wú dòng yú zhōng 。 shì dá chéng le mǒu zhǒng jiāo yì ， hái shì ……”
“最奇怪的是，玄黄界几位长生天尊的反应。如果说他们对天医的小动作，一无所知。我是肯定不信的，但偏偏她们始终无动于衷。是达成了某种交易，还是……”
Returning to Heavenly Cool State, restoring the connection of communication spirit tokens, countless messages suddenly began pouring in.
tiān yī de liǎn páng fú xiàn zài xǔ bái nǎo hǎi zhōng 。
天医的脸庞浮现在许白脑海中。
Xu Bai handled them calmly one by one. How to keep everyone satisfied while offending as few people as possible was something he had already mastered during his tenure as Grand Tutor in Great Xuan Kingdom.
xǔ jiǔ hòu ， tā fāng cái wēi wēi yáo tóu ， zàn qiě jiāng zhǒng zhǒng sī xù yā xià 。
许久后，他方才微微摇头，暂且将种种思绪压下。
Currently, there were still 640 vacant positions in Heavenly Cool State. Only about two hundred of these could be used for transactions and compromises with other forces. But more than a thousand wanted to get their hands on some of the rewards.
huí dào tiān liáng zhōu ， huī fù tōng xùn líng fú de lián jiē ， dùn shí wú shù chuán xùn rú xuě huā bān piāo lái 。
回到天凉州，恢复通讯灵符的连接，顿时无数传讯如雪花般飘来。
How to make most people feel satisfied while offending as few as possible was something he needed to think carefully about.
xǔ bái bù huāng bù máng ， zhú yī chǔ lǐ 。
许白不慌不忙，逐一处理。
Xu Bai queried the backgrounds of these individuals, replied to messages, and probed their personalities...
rú hé jiāng yī wǎn shuǐ duān píng ， zǎo zài dà xuán dāng tài shī nà huì ， tā jiù yǐ jīng liàn dé lú huǒ chún qīng le 。
如何将一碗水端平，早在大玄当太师那会，他就已经练得炉火纯青了。
---
rú jīn tiān liáng zhōu shàng hái yǒu yú xí de zhí wèi ， gòng jì liù bǎi sì shí gè 。
如今天凉州尚还有余席的职位，共计六百四十个。
Just when Xu Bai was busy with his new position, a major event suddenly caught everyone's attention across the land.
dé dào nán gōng shì róng shǒu kěn ， yòng lái gēn qí tā shì lì jiāo yì 、 tuǒ xié de gǎng wèi ， zhǐ yǒu liǎng bǎi duō gè 。
得到南宫士荣首肯，用来跟其他势力交易、妥协的岗位，只有两百多个。
The leader of Source Dao State, Blue Feather Immortal Venerable, due to nearing the end of his lifespan, had called on all cultivators in the world to submit any longevity-enhancing treasures they possessed.
dàn shì xiǎng cóng zhè jiàn shì zhōng fēn yī bēi gēng de ， hé zhǐ shàng qiān 。
但是想从这件事中分一杯羹的，何止上千。
He also provided a list of items he had already tried. He declared that anyone who could provide effective items would be allowed to choose from his collection.
rú hé zài dé zuì zuì shǎo rén de qíng kuàng xià ， ràng jué dà duō shù rén gǎn dào mǎn yì ， shí zài xū yào xì xì sī liáng 。
如何在得罪最少人的情况下，让绝大多数人感到满意，实在需要细细思量。
Blue Feather Immortal Venerable had ruled over Source Dao State for thousands of years, and his collection was incredibly rich. It even surpassed the rewards offered by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to encourage explorations into the white fog.
xǔ bái yī biān chá xún zhe zhè xiē rén de dǐ xì ， yī biān huí fù xùn xī 、 dǎ tàn tā men de xìng gé 。
许白一边查询着这些人的底细，一边回复讯息、打探他们的性格。
Thus, the entire world was震动.
……
……
Many cultivators rushed back from the white fog to冒险寻找 longevity-enhancing treasures.
jiù zài xǔ bái zài xīn zhí wèi shàng máng lù dì bù kě kāi jiāo de shí hòu ， yī jiàn dà shì hū de xī yǐn le quán tiān xià de zhù yì 。
就在许白在新职位上忙碌地不可开交的时候，一件大事忽的吸引了全天下的注意。
---
yuán dào zhōu kuí shǒu ， lán yǔ xiān zūn ， yīn wèi shòu yuán jiāng jǐn ， gù ér xiàng tiān xià xiū shì ， zhēng jí suǒ yǒu néng gòu yán shòu de bǎo wù 。
源道州魁首，蓝羽仙尊，因为寿元将尽，故而向天下修士，征集所有能够延寿的宝物。
Li Fan stared at this news, slightly stunned.
tóng shí tí gōng le tā yǐ jīng fú yòng guò de yán shòu bǎo wù míng dān 。
同时提供了他已经服用过的延寿宝物名单。
"Is Blue Feather giving up on his last-ditch effort to reverse death and life?"
bìng xuān chēng ， dàn fán néng tí gōng yǒu xiào bǎo wù zhě ， tā de zhēn cáng ， rèn qí tiāo xuǎn 。
并宣称，但凡能提供有效宝物者，他的珍藏，任其挑选。
"It seems that there is already a rumor about an Everlasting Venerable achieving enlightenment. Is it from within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance or..."
lán yǔ xiān zūn ， zhí zhǎng dào yuán zhōu yǐ yǒu shù qiān nián 。
蓝羽仙尊，执掌道源州已有数千年。
"The Five Elders' Council?"
tā de zhēn cáng ， hé qí fēng hòu 。 shèn zhì bǐ qǐ wàn xiān méng gǔ lì xiū shì tàn suǒ bái wù de jiǎng lì ， dōu yào fēng hòu jǐ fēn 。
他的珍藏，何其丰厚。甚至比起万仙盟鼓励修士探索白雾的奖励，都要丰厚几分。
While Li Fan was lost in thought, Huangfu Song carefully studied Blue Feather's message before sighing.
yú shì tiān xià zhèn dòng 。
于是天下震动。
"Blue Feather Immortal Venerable has ruled over one state for thousands of years. What longevity-enhancing treasures hasn't he tried? This list is almost equivalent to a complete guidebook on longevity-enhancing treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm. Wanting to get rewards from him..."
yǒu bù shǎo xiū shì cōng cōng zì bái wù zhōng fǎn huí ， zhuǎn ér qù mào xiǎn xún zhǎo yán shòu bǎo wù qù le 。
有不少修士匆匆自白雾中返回，转而去冒险寻找延寿宝物去了。
"I don’t have that kind of fortune." He said with a self-deprecating laugh.
lǐ fán zé shì dīng zhe zhè yī zé xiāo xī ， wēi wēi lèng shén 。
李凡则是盯着这一则消息，微微愣神。
"Damn, so many things I’ve never heard of before. He’s tried them all," Dongfang Yao exclaimed. "In my opinion, he will die anyway. Why struggle? Better to end it sooner."
“ lán yǔ zhè shì fàng qì gū zhù yí zhì 、 nì zhuǎn sǐ shēng le ？”
“蓝羽这是放弃孤注一掷、逆转死生了？”
Hearing the complaints from his companions, Li Fan suddenly understood.
“ kàn lái yǐ jīng yǒu tiān zūn zhèng dào de xiāo xī bèi xiè lòu le 。 shì wàn xiān méng nèi bù zǒu lòu de fēng shēng ， hái shì ……”
“看来已经有天尊证道的消息被泄露了。是万仙盟内部走漏的风声，还是……”
"A long-planned plan has been disrupted. Now Blue Feather needs time most. Offering a reward for longevity-enhancing treasures is a last resort."
“ wǔ lǎo huì ？”
“五老会？”
"What will he do next?"
lǐ fán lèng shén de gōng fu ， huáng fǔ sōng zé shì zǐ xì yán jiū le yī fān lán yǔ fā bù de xiāo xī ， yáo tóu tàn qì 。
李凡愣神的功夫，皇甫松则是仔细研究了一番蓝羽发布的消息，摇头叹气。
In fact, by this point, Blue Feather had no choice left.
“ lán yǔ xiān zūn tā tǒng zhì yī zhōu shù qiān nián ， shén me yàng de yán shòu bǎo wù méi chī guò ？ zhè fèn qīng dān ， shèn zhì yǐ jīng jī hū kě yǐ děng tóng wèi 【 xuán huáng jiè yán shòu bǎo wù tú jiàn dà quán 】 le 。 xiǎng yào cóng tā nà lǐ huò dé jiǎng lì ……”
“蓝羽仙尊他统治一州数千年，什么样的延寿宝物没吃过？这份清单，甚至已经几乎可以等同为【玄黄界延寿宝物图鉴大全】了。想要从他那里获得奖励……”
He could either try to reverse the natural order and seek a chance at immortality, but clearly, mastering such conditions would not be easy in a short time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have resorted to setting up a great array just before his death.
“ fǎn zhèng wǒ shì méi nà děng qì yùn 。” tā pǒ yǒu xiē zì cháo de shuō dào 。
“反正我是没那等气运。”他颇有些自嘲的说道。
The only option left was for him to try reversing life and death again and compete with that unnamed Everlasting Venerable!
“ tā niáng de ， zhè me duō dōng xī ， dōng fāng wǒ lián tīng dōu méi tīng guò 。 tā quán dōu chī le yī biàn 。” dōng fāng yào zé shé dào ，“ yī wǒ kàn ， gāi sǐ de zǒng guī huì sǐ 。 hái zhè me zhēng zhá gàn má ， gǒu yán cán chuǎn 。 hái bù rú zǎo diǎn jiě tuō lái de tòng kuài 。”
“他娘的，这么多东西，东方我连听都没听过。他全都吃了一遍。”东方曜咋舌道，“依我看，该死的总归会死。还这么挣扎干嘛，苟延残喘。还不如早点解脱来的痛快。”
Li Fan suddenly understood.
lǐ fán tīng zhe shēn biān èr rén de bào yuàn ， hū de chǎn shēng le míng wù 。
李凡听着身边二人的抱怨，忽的产生了明悟。
"Although it’s extremely difficult, Blue Feather is more familiar with the principles of life and death. Compared to changing the principle he wants to reverse, the chances of success are higher."
“ zhǔn bèi yǐ jiǔ de jì huà ， tū rán bèi dǎ luàn 。 rú jīn lán yǔ zuì xū yào de jiù shì shí jiān ， xiàng quán tiān xià xuán shǎng ， yě shì wú nài zhī jǔ 。”
“准备已久的计划，突然被打乱。如今蓝羽最需要的就是时间，向全天下悬赏，也是无奈之举。”
"There might even be support from the Five Elders' Council."
“ jiē xià lái ， tā huì zěn me zuò ？”
“接下来，他会怎么做？”
Thoughts raced through Li Fan's mind.
qí shí shì qíng dào le zhè ge dì bù ， lán yǔ tā yǐ jīng méi yǒu shén me xuǎn zé de yú dì le 。
其实事情到了这个地步，蓝羽他已经没有什么选择的余地了。
"Fascinating, now we'll see how the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will choose."
yī shì ， gǎi biàn yù nì zhī lǐ ， bó zhèng dào zhǎng shēng de yī xiàn shēng jī 。
一是，改变欲逆之理，搏证道长生的一线生机。
"Will they support that unknown Everlasting Venerable or Blue Feather?"
Because not only were there no records of them in the present day, but even among those who had crossed through time from the ancient cultivation world to Great Xuan Kingdom.
For Tianyi and his companions, they knew nothing about these people. This was rather unusual and made one wonder about their origins. After all, such powerful individuals would not remain unknown.
"If this is true, then many things can be explained."
