tiān xuán jìng kōng jiān zhōng ， xǔ bái tīng zhe jìng zi nà lüè dài jīn shǔ zhì gǎn de jī xiè shēng yīn ， nǎo hǎi zhōng què shì sī xù bù tíng fān yǒng 。
天玄镜空间中，许白听着镜子那略带金属质感的机械声音，脑海中却是思绪不停翻涌。
In the spatial dimension of the Heavenly Profound Mirror, Xu Bai listened to the mirror's mechanical voice with a metallic quality. His mind raced with thoughts.
“ jiù suàn tiān xuán jìng tā bú shì xuán tiān bǎo jìng běn tǐ ， liǎng zhě zhī jiān yě bì rán cún zài jí qí mì qiè de guān lián 。”
“就算天玄镜它不是玄天宝镜本体，两者之间也必然存在极其密切的关联。”
"Even if the Heavenly Profound Mirror isn't the original Divine Sky Treasure Mirror, there must be an extremely close connection between them."
“ jì rán tiān xuán jìng shì lái zì xuán tiān jiào ， nà me shì fǒu yì wèi zhe chuán fǎ tiān zūn yě shì ？”
“既然天玄镜是来自玄天教，那么是否意味着传法天尊也是？”
"If the Heavenly Profound Mirror came from the Divine Sky Sect, does that mean the Transcendent Lawbearers also originated from it?"
“ wèi le bào dāng chū xiān dào shí zōng miè jiào zhī chóu ？”
“为了报当初仙道十宗灭教之仇？”
"Were they seeking revenge for the ten sects of Immortal Dao destroying their sect back then?"
xǔ bái yòu hū de xiǎng qǐ ， zhè shù qiān nián lái ， tiān xuán jìng yì zhí zài bù tíng dàn xià cì shēng tǐ de shì shí 。
许白又忽的想起，这数千年来，天玄镜一直在不停诞下次生体的事实。
Suddenly, Xu Bai recalled that over these thousands of years, the Heavenly Profound Mirror had continuously produced secondary bodies.
“ jí biàn xuán tiān jiào fù miè duō nián ， yī jiù kě yǐ yòng 【 zhū xuán 】 mì fǎ gǎn yìng dào tiān xuán jìng gēn tā de lián xì 。 zhè shì fǒu shuō míng ， tiān xuán jìng réng rán méi yǒu wán quán bǎi tuō xuán tiān jiào de kòng zhì ？”
“即便玄天教覆灭多年，依旧可以用【诛玄】秘法感应到天玄镜跟它的联系。这是否说明，天玄镜仍然没有完全摆脱玄天教的控制？”
"Even though the Divine Sky Sect has been destroyed for many years, it can still sense a connection with the Heavenly Profound Mirror using the secret technique 'Exterminate the Profane'. This suggests that the Heavenly Profound Mirror hasn't completely broken free from the Divine Sky Sect's control."
“ suǒ yǐ wàn xiān méng fèi le nà me dà lì qì ， xún zhǎo mái cáng zài zǐ xiāo zōng de xuán tiān jiào fǎ wáng ， jiù shì wèi le qǔ dé tiān xuán jìng de zuì zhōng kòng zhì quán 。”
“所以万仙盟废了那么大力气，寻找埋藏在紫霄宗的玄天教法王，就是为了取得天玄镜的最终控制权。”
"So, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance expended so much effort to find the hidden Divine Sky Sect Grandmaster in the Purple Void Sect. They were trying to gain full control over the Heavenly Profound Mirror."
“ ér qǐ yīn biàn shì ， wǒ dāng chū jiǎ bàn tiān jī zōng xiū shì suǒ yù yán de nà jù 【 tiān xuán suǒ líng 、 xuán huáng guī yī tǒng 】。”
“而起因便是，我当初假扮天机宗修士所预言的那句【天玄锁灵、玄黄归一统】。”
"The root cause was that I had predicted the phrase 'Heavenly Profound Sealing Spirit, Xuan Huang Unification' as a fake Immortal Mechanism sect cultivator back then."
cǐ shì fā shēng de shì qíng ， chà nà jiān lián jiē qǐ lái 。
此世发生的事情，刹那间连接起来。
The events of this world suddenly connected in his mind.
ràng xǔ bái tòu guò shì jiàn de biǎo xiàng ， kàn dào le yǐn cáng zài bèi hòu de shēn céng cì yuán yīn 。
让许白透过事件的表象，看到了隐藏在背后的深层次原因。
Xu Bai saw through the surface of these events to their deeper underlying reasons.
“ ér xiàn zài ， xiān méng zhǔ dòng tuī dòng dà tàn suǒ shí dài lái lín ， sì hū yào cù chéng tiān xuán jìng jìn yí bù tuì biàn 。 zhè shì fǒu shuō míng ， wàn xiān méng yǐ jīng rú yuàn yǐ cháng ， zhǎng wò le chuán fǎ tiān zūn liú xià de zhè jiàn zhì bǎo ？”
“而现在，仙盟主动推动大探索时代来临，似乎要促成天玄镜进一步蜕变。这是否说明，万仙盟已经如愿以偿，掌握了传法天尊留下的这件至宝？”
"Now, with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance actively pushing for the Great Exploration Era, it seems they want to further transform the Heavenly Profound Mirror. Does this mean that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has already achieved its goal and obtained the treasure left by the Transcendent Lawbearer?"
xǔ bái mù guāng shǎn dòng 。
许白目光闪动。
Xu Bai's eyes flashed.
céng jīng ， tā yǒu guò cāi cè 。 wàn xiān méng àn chù de zhēn zhèng zhǔ zǎi ， bú shì xiū shì ， ér shì tiān xuán jìng 。
曾经，他有过猜测。万仙盟暗处的真正主宰，不是修士，而是天玄镜。
Once upon a time, he had guessed that the true master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in secret was not a cultivator but the Heavenly Profound Mirror itself.
dàn hòu lái ， jī yuán qiǎo hé zhī xià ， tā yòu zhī dào le chuán fǎ zhě men de cún zài 。 yīn cǐ tuī duàn ， chuán fǎ zhě hé tiān xuán jìng xiāng hù zhì yuē ， gòng tóng zhǔ dǎo 、 tǒng lǐng wàn xiān méng 。
但后来，机缘巧合之下，他又知道了传法者们的存在。因此推断，传法者和天玄镜相互制约，共同主导、统领万仙盟。
But later, through a stroke of luck, he learned about the existence of the Transcendent Lawbearers. He deduced that the Transcendent Lawbearers and the Heavenly Profound Mirror mutually restrained each other, jointly leading the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
xiàn zài kàn lái ， shì xiū shì zuì zhōng zài zhè chǎng zhēng dòu zhōng qǔ dé le zuì zhōng de shèng lì ？
现在看来，是修士最终在这场争斗中取得了最终的胜利？
Now it seemed that the cultivators ultimately won this struggle?
xǔ bái nǎo hǎi zhōng ， hū de shǎn guò shuò fēng yǔ lù xī chán de shēn yǐng 。
许白脑海中，忽的闪过朔锋与陆溪婵的身影。
Xu Bai's mind suddenly flashed back to Suoxiong and Lu Xichan.
“ xuán jiā ……”
“玄家……”
"Xuan Family..."
zhī qián lù xuě jìng zài jiàn dào tā běn zūn shí shuō de yī jù huà ， chóng xīn huí dàng zài ěr biān 。
之前陆雪静在见到他本尊时说的一句话，重新回荡在耳边。
The words Lu Xuejing had said when she first saw his true form echoed in his ears.
“ nǐ shì shuí jiā zǐ dì ？ wǒ kàn nǐ yǎn shēng de hěn ！ bú huì shì wèi le dǎ tàn tiān xuán jìng de wèi zhì ， gù yì jiē jìn shuò gē gē de wǔ lǎo huì jiàn dié ba ！ nǐ yī kàn jiù bú shì shén me hǎo rén ， zhī qián shuò gē gē hái cóng lái méi yǒu piàn wǒ ne ……”
“你是谁家子弟？我看你眼生的很！不会是为了打探天玄镜的位置，故意接近朔哥哥的五老会间谍吧！你一看就不是什么好人，之前朔哥哥还从来没有骗我呢……”
"You're from which family? I've never seen you before! You must be a spy for the Five Elders Alliance of Suoxiong. You don't look like someone to trust... Suoxiong has never lied to me before..."
fǎng fú yī dào shǎn diàn ， pī kāi mí wù 。
仿佛一道闪电，劈开迷雾。
It was as if a lightning bolt had cut through the fog.
“ yuán lái shì zhè yàng 。” xǔ bái yǎn zhōng yǒu suǒ míng wù 。
“原来是这样。”许白眼中有所明悟。
"Ah, that makes sense." Xu Bai's eyes brightened with understanding.
suǒ wèi dǎng wài wú dǎng ， dì wáng sī xiǎng ； dǎng nèi wú pài ， qiān qí bǎi guài 。 bìng bú shì suǒ yǒu xiū shì ， dōu zhàn zài chuán fǎ zhě men zhè yī biān de 。
所谓党外无党，帝王思想；党内无派，千奇百怪。并不是所有修士，都站在传法者们这一边的。
The saying "Outside a party there is no party; within a party there are myriad oddities" did not mean all cultivators stood on the side of the Transcendent Lawbearers.
zhì shǎo gēn jù mù qián de xìn xī lái kàn ， cè zhèn táng shǒu xí ， yǐ jí fēi xuě xiān zūn 、 xuán xìng xiū shì ， shì zhàn zài tiān xuán jìng zhè yī fāng de 。
至少根据目前的信息来看，策阵堂首席，以及绯雪仙尊、玄姓修士，是站在天玄镜这一方的。
At least based on current information, the Chief Strategist of the Array Formation Hall, as well as the Crimson Snow Immortal and Xuan family cultivators, were aligned with the Heavenly Profound Mirror.
chuán fǎ zhě men shì tú tōng guò xuán tiān jiào shǒu duàn ， wán quán kòng zhì tiān xuán jìng 。
传法者们试图通过玄天教手段，完全控制天玄镜。
The Transcendent Lawbearers attempted to fully control the Heavenly Profound Mirror through Divine Sky Sect methods.
ér yǐ tiān xuán jìng mǎ shǒu shì zhān de xiū shì men ， zì rán yào xiǎng bàn fǎ fǎn zhì 。 tā men huò xǔ wú lì zǔ zhǐ chuán fǎ zhě men de xíng wéi ， suǒ yǐ lìng pì xī jìng 。 tuī dòng tiān xuán jìng wán chéng tuì biàn shēng gé ， dǐ dǎng xuán tiān jiào mì fǎ kòng zhì 。
而以天玄镜马首是瞻的修士们，自然要想办法反制。他们或许无力阻止传法者们的行为，所以另辟蹊径。推动天玄镜完成蜕变升格，抵挡玄天教秘法控制。
And since the mirror followed the lead of the Heavenly Profound Mirror, naturally they had to find a way to counteract this. They might not be able to stop the actions of the Transcendent Lawbearers but could try to push the mirror towards transformation and resistance against the Divine Sky Sect's secret techniques.
dàn shì rú cǐ dà zhāng qí gǔ ， jī hū dòng yòng zhěng gè wàn xiān méng de lì liàng ， qù gǔ lì xiū shì tàn suǒ bái wù 。 yào shuō zhè lǐ miàn méi yǒu wàn xiān méng zuì gāo tǒng zhì jiē jí ， chuán fǎ zhě men de shǒu kěn ， xǔ bái shì wàn wàn bù xìn de 。
但是如此大张旗鼓，几乎动用整个万仙盟的力量，去鼓励修士探索白雾。要说这里面没有万仙盟最高统治阶级，传法者们的首肯，许白是万万不信的。
But such a grand effort, almost using all the resources of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, to encourage cultivators to explore the white fog... Xu Bai would never believe it without the approval of the highest ruling class of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
“ chú fēi ， biàn chá mí wù shì lái zì gèng gāo yì zhì de jué dìng 、 lián chuán fǎ zhě men yě wú wéi bèi 。 tiān xuán jìng xiǎng yào píng cǐ shēng gé ， yě bù guò shì jiè dōng fēng zhī lì bà le 。”
“除非，遍查迷雾是来自更高意志的决定、连传法者们也无违背。天玄镜想要凭此升格，也不过是借东风之力罢了。”
"Unless, this search through the fog is decided by a higher will that even the Transcendent Lawbearers cannot defy. The Heavenly Profound Mirror seeking transformation can only rely on external forces."
“ ér zhè xuán huáng jiè ， wéi yī néng shǐ chuán fǎ zhě men dī tóu de ， wéi yǒu ……”
“而这玄黄界，唯一能使传法者们低头的，唯有……”
"And in the Xuan Huang Realm, the only thing that could make the Transcendent Lawbearers bow down..."
yī fān fēn xī zhī hòu ， xǔ bái xīn zhōng zhèn chàn bù yǐ 。
一番分析之后，许白心中震颤不已。
After analyzing all of this, Xu Bai's heart trembled.
“ chuán fǎ tiān zūn ！”
“传法天尊！”
"The Transcendent Lawbearer!"
“ tā méi yǒu zǒu ？ hái zài xuán huáng jiè ？”
“祂没有走？还在玄黄界？”
"Has He not left? Is He still in the Xuan Huang Realm?"
jù dà de yā pò gǎn shùn jiān xí lái ， xǔ bái hū de xiǎng qǐ ， dà tàn suǒ shí dài lái lín zhī qián ， liǔ sān jiù yǐ jīng jiàn dào bù shǎo xiān méng xiū shì shēn rù mí wù zhī zhōng 。
巨大的压迫感瞬间袭来，许白忽的想起，大探索时代来临之前，柳三就已经见到不少仙盟修士深入迷雾之中。
A massive oppressive feeling washed over him. Xu Bai suddenly remembered that before the Great Exploration Era began, Liu San had already seen many Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance cultivators delving into the fog.
nà shí hòu ， tā cāi cè ， xiān méng kě néng shì wèi le sōu xún “ luàn zì jué ” xiàn suǒ de yuán gù ， cái rú cǐ zuò 。
那时候，他猜测，仙盟可能是为了搜寻“乱字诀”线索的缘故，才如此做。
At that time, he guessed it was because the alliance might be searching for clues about the "Random Decree."
nà me ， jiāng yī qiè lián tōng qǐ lái 。
那么，将一切联通起来。
So, connecting all these dots...
xǔ bái shùn jiān gǎn dào yī gǔ máo gǔ sǒng rán de hòu pà ：“ dāng rì wǒ shī zhǎn luàn zì jué hòu ， chá jué bìng jiàng lín de nà dào páng dà shén shí ， jiù shì chuán fǎ tiān zūn ？”
许白瞬间感到一股毛骨悚然的后怕：“当日我施展乱字诀后，察觉并降临的那道庞大神识，就是传法天尊？”
Xu Bai felt a chill down his spine. "The vast divine consciousness I sensed and descended after using the Random Decree... could that have been the Transcendent Lawbearer?"
dàn hěn kuài ， xǔ bái wēi wēi zhòu méi ， zì wǒ fǒu dìng le 。
但很快，许白微微皱眉，自我否定了。
But quickly, Xu Bai frowned and dismissed this idea.
suī rán nà rì tā de biǎo yǎn yǐ jīng shí fēn chū sè le ， dàn shì tā què bìng bù rèn wéi ， néng mán guò chuán fǎ de yǎn jīng 。
虽然那日他的表演已经十分出色了，但是他却并不认为，能瞒过传法的眼睛。
Although his performance had already been impressive, he did not believe he could deceive the Transcendent Lawbearer's eyes.
ér qiě ， cóng luàn zì jué shī zhǎn ， dào shén shí jiàng lín 。
而且，从乱字诀施展，到神识降临。
Moreover, from the time of casting the Random Decree to when the divine consciousness descended...
zhè duàn shí jiān yě tài zhǎng le diǎn 。 rú guǒ zhēn shì chuán fǎ ， yǐ tā de xiū wèi ， jué bù zhì yú fǎn yìng sù dù zhè me màn 。
这段时间也太长了点。如果真是传法，以祂的修为，绝不至于反应速度这么慢。
That period was too long. If it were really the Transcendent Lawbearer, with His cultivation, He wouldn't have reacted so slowly.
“ yīng gāi shì duì kàng mò shā ， zài dù yǐn bào de luàn zì jué ， cái zuì zhōng yǐn lái le tā de zhù yì 。”
“应该是对抗墨杀，再度引爆的乱字诀，才最终引来了祂的注意。”
"Perhaps it was the Random Decree reacting against Mordant Death that finally caught His attention."
xǔ bái de sī xù hū de dùn zhù 。
许白的思绪忽的顿住。
Xu Bai's thoughts paused.
“ yòu huò zhě ， chuán fǎ dāng shí bìng bù zài xuán huáng jiè nèi 。 zhǐ bù guò zì jǐ shī zhǎn le luàn zì jué ， zhè cái bǎ tā chóng xīn yǐn le huí lái ……”
“又或者，传法当时并不在玄黄界内。只不过自己施展了乱字诀，这才把祂重新引了回来……”
"Or perhaps the Transcendent Lawbearer wasn't in the Xuan Huang Realm at all. Only by casting the Random Decree did I bring Him back..."
cǐ zhǒng niàn tou yī chū ， xǔ bái dùn shí yòu shì yī zhèn xīn jīng 。
此种念头一出，许白顿时又是一阵心惊。
This thought made Xu Bai shudder again.
fǎn fù sī suǒ liáng jiǔ ， shǐ zhōng bù néng pái chú zhè zhǒng kě néng xìng 。
反复思索良久，始终不能排除这种可能性。
After much contemplation, he couldn't rule out this possibility.
“ kàn lái ， zhè luàn zì jué suī qiáng ， yě bú shì néng suí yì shī zhǎn de 。”
“看来，这乱字诀虽强，也不是能随意施展的。”
"It seems that while the Random Decree is powerful, it can't be used casually."
“ yī cì shì jiǎo xìng ， rú guǒ zài yǒu xià cì ……”
“一次是侥幸，如果再有下次……”
"One time was a fluke, but if there's another..."
miàn duì tiān yī ， hái zhēn dōu yào shòu dào yǐng xiǎng 。
面对天医，还真都要受到影响。
Facing the Healer of Heaven, even the True Profound technique would be affected.
ruò shì héng yā xuán huáng jiè shù qiān nián de chuán fǎ tiān zūn qīn zhì ， xǔ bái gēn běn méi yǒu bǎ wò ， néng gòu zài qí miàn qián shī zhǎn 【 hái zhēn 】。
若是横压玄黄界数千年的传法天尊亲至，许白根本没有把握，能够在其面前施展【还真】。
If the Transcendent Lawbearer of Heaven personally arrived to suppress the Xuan Huang Realm for thousands of years, Xu Bai had no confidence in performing the True Profound before Him.
“ hái shì bú dào pò bù dé yǐ ， bù yòng wèi miào 。” xǔ bái xīn zhōng àn mà yī jù
“还是不到迫不得已，不用为妙。”许白心中暗骂一句
"Better not use it unless absolutely necessary." Xu Bai cursed inwardly.
xǔ bái xīn zhōng yòu xiǎng dào ， rú guǒ shàng shù cāi cè shǔ shí 。 nà me yǐ jīng chéng jiù cháng shēng 、 chāo rán wù wài de chuán fǎ ， què yī jiù duì “ luàn zì jué ” rú cǐ zài yì ……
许白心中又想到，如果上述猜测属实。那么已经成就长生、超然物外的传法，却依旧对“乱字诀”如此在意……
Xu Bai thought about what would happen if his guesses were true. An already immortal and transcendent Transcendent Lawbearer still being so concerned with "Random Decree..."
“ luàn ” yě shì xiān jiā zhēn chuán ？
“乱”也是仙家真传？
"Is 'Random' also a true transmission from the Immortal Dao?"
xǔ bái xīn lǐ yī jīng ， shǒu xiān xiǎng dào de jiù shì zhè ge kě néng 。
许白心里一惊，首先想到的就是这个可能。
Xu Bai's heart leapt at this possibility.
nǎo hǎi zhōng ， dāng chū zài fǎn zhé mí yù zhōng jiàn dào de yí mù mù chǎng jǐng kuài sù zhòng fàng 。
脑海中，当初在反折迷域中见到的一幕幕场景快速重放。
In his mind, scenes from the Reversal Illusory Domain flashed back.
nà mǎn dì de guǐ yì kě bù de shī shēn ， yǐ jí mí yù zhōng yāng kè yǒu luàn zì de shí bēi 。
那满地的诡异可怖的尸身，以及迷域中央刻有乱字的石碑。
The eerie corpses scattered on the ground and the stone tablet in the center of the domain with the word "Random" carved into it.
yí gè cāi cè bù jīn fú xiàn tā de xīn tóu 。
一个猜测不禁浮现他的心头。
A hypothesis suddenly popped up in his mind.
“ nà ge mí yù de xiū xiān jiè ， zhèng shì yīn wèi shòu dào luàn zì de yǐng xiǎng ， ér zāo dào miè dǐng zhī zāi 。”
“那个迷域的修仙界，正是因为受到乱字的影响，而遭到灭顶之灾。”
"The cultivation realm within that illusory domain was destroyed because of the influence of 'Random.'"
“ ér nà 【 luàn 】 zì ， zé shì lái zì ……”
“而那【乱】字，则是来自……”
"And that 'Random'..."
“ xiān jiè ！”
“仙界！”
"It came from... the Immortal Realm!"
“ zhì yú nà fǎn zhé guài wù bǎ wǒ cuò rèn wéi 【 tiān jué 】 yú fù lǎo rén zhī hòu ， sù shuō xiōng shǒu shì tiān yī de yuán yīn ……”
“至于那反折怪物把我错认为【天绝】渔父老人之后，诉说凶手是天医的原因……”
"As for why the Reversal Monster mistook me for the Elder Fisher of Heaven's End and said the murderer was the Healer of Heaven..."
xǔ bái hū de yòu xiǎng qǐ le dì sān mò céng duì lù yá shuō guò de huà 。
许白忽的又想起了帝叁貘曾对陆涯说过的话。
Xu Bai suddenly recalled what Emperor San Mo had told Lu Ya.
“ yǒu shí hòu ， jí biàn qīn yǎn suǒ jiàn ， yě wèi bì shì shì qíng de zhēn xiàng 。”
“有时候，即便亲眼所见，也未必是事情的真相。”
"Sometimes, even if you see something with your own eyes, it might not be the truth."
“ luàn zì de yǐng xiǎng xià ， bù néng pái chú rèn cuò rén de yuán yīn 。”
“乱字的影响下，不能排除认错人的原因。”
"The influence of 'Random' cannot be ruled out as a reason for mistaking someone."
“ dāng chū zài yún shuǐ tiān gōng ， tiān jué 、 tiān yī 、 tiān yù sān zhě duì zhì shí ， tiān jué céng qīn kǒu chéng rèn ， shì tā tú lù le yún shuǐ tiān gōng shàng xià 。”
“当初在云水天宫，天绝、天医、天谕三者对峙时，天绝曾亲口承认，是他屠戮了云水天宫上下。”
"When I faced off against Heaven's End, Heaven's Healer, and Heaven's Decree in the Cloudwater Heavenly Palace, Heaven's End admitted that he had slaughtered everyone there."
“ huò xǔ fǎn zhé mí yù yě shì rú cǐ 。”
“或许反折迷域也是如此。”
"Perhaps this Reversal Illusory Domain was also like that."
“ shì yuán bái wù zhōng ， chōng chì zhe gè zhǒng guǐ jué yì cháng de xiàn xiàng 。 hěn nán shuō ， zhè qí zhōng méi yǒu luàn zì de yǐng xiǎng 。”
“噬元白雾中，充斥着各种诡谲异常的现象。很难说，这其中没有乱字的影响。”
"The devouring essence white fog is filled with all sorts of bizarre phenomena. It's hard to say whether 'Random' played a role here."
“ luàn zì jué ， kàn lái bù jǐn jǐn shì zài xuán huáng jiè 。 qí tā xiū xiān jiè ， huò xǔ dōu céng jīng chū xiàn guò 。”
“乱字诀，看来不仅仅是在玄黄界。其他修仙界，或许都曾经出现过。”
"The Random Decree isn't just in the Xuan Huang Realm; it might have appeared in other cultivation realms as well."
“ shèn zhì zào jiù liǎo wú biān jié nàn 。”
“甚至造就了无边劫难。”
"Perhaps even causing countless calamities."
“ zhè kǒng pà jiù shì chuán fǎ yǐ jí rú jīn de wàn xiān méng yǐ jí wǔ lǎo huì ， dōu duì qí shí fēn zài yì de yuán yīn 。”
“这恐怕就是传法以及如今的万仙盟以及五老会，都对其十分在意的原因。”
"This could be why the Transcendent Lawbearer, and now the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Alliance, are so concerned with it."
xǔ bái lèng shén sī kǎo de gōng fu 。
许白愣神思考的功夫。
Xu Bai was lost in thought when Li Fan, who had been dazed in the Longevity Valley, was suddenly awakened by Liu San.
cháng shēng gǔ zhōng ， yì zhí fā dāi de lǐ fán ， què shì bèi liǔ sān hǎn xǐng 。
长生谷中，一直发呆的李凡，却是被柳三喊醒。
"Young Master, is there a connection between the Heavenly Profound Mirror and the Divine Sky Sect?"
“ shǎo zhǔ ， tiān xuán jìng shì fǒu gēn tiān xuán jiào yǒu guān ？”
“少主，天玄镜是否跟天玄教有关？”
He asked.
tā wèn dào 。
他问道。
(End of chapter)
In the spatial dimension of the Heavenly Profound Mirror, Xu Bai listened to the mirror's mechanical voice with a metallic quality. His mind raced with thoughts.
"Even if the Heavenly Profound Mirror isn't the original Divine Sky Treasure Mirror, there must be an extremely close connection between them."
"If the Heavenly Profound Mirror came from the Divine Sky Sect, does that mean the Transcendent Lawbearers also originated from it?"
"Were they seeking revenge for the ten sects of Immortal Dao destroying their sect back then?"
Suddenly, Xu Bai recalled that over these thousands of years, the Heavenly Profound Mirror had continuously produced secondary bodies.
"Even though the Divine Sky Sect has been destroyed for many years, it can still sense a connection with the Heavenly Profound Mirror using the secret technique 'Exterminate the Profane'. This suggests that the Heavenly Profound Mirror hasn't completely broken free from the Divine Sky Sect's control."
"So, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance expended so much effort to find the hidden Divine Sky Sect Grandmaster in the Purple Void Sect. They were trying to gain full control over the Heavenly Profound Mirror."
"The root cause was that I had predicted the phrase 'Heavenly Profound Sealing Spirit, Xuan Huang Unification' as a fake Immortal Mechanism sect cultivator back then."
The events of this world suddenly connected in his mind.
Xu Bai saw through the surface of these events to their deeper underlying reasons.
"Now, with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance actively pushing for the Great Exploration Era, it seems they want to further transform the Heavenly Profound Mirror. Does this mean that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has already achieved its goal and obtained the treasure left by the Transcendent Lawbearer?"
Xu Bai's eyes flashed.
Once upon a time, he had guessed that the true master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in secret was not a cultivator but the Heavenly Profound Mirror itself.
But later, through a stroke of luck, he learned about the existence of the Transcendent Lawbearers. He deduced that the Transcendent Lawbearers and the Heavenly Profound Mirror mutually restrained each other, jointly leading the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
Now it seemed that the cultivators ultimately won this struggle?
Xu Bai's mind suddenly flashed back to Suoxiong and Lu Xichan.
"Xuan Family..."
The words Lu Xuejing had said when she first saw his true form echoed in his ears.
"You're from which family? I've never seen you before! You must be a spy for the Five Elders Alliance of Suoxiong. You don't look like someone to trust... Suoxiong has never lied to me before..."
It was as if a lightning bolt had cut through the fog.
"Ah, that makes sense." Xu Bai's eyes brightened with understanding.
The saying "Outside a party there is no party; within a party there are myriad oddities" did not mean all cultivators stood on the side of the Transcendent Lawbearers.
At least based on current information, the Chief Strategist of the Array Formation Hall, as well as the Crimson Snow Immortal and Xuan family cultivators, were aligned with the Heavenly Profound Mirror.
The Transcendent Lawbearers attempted to fully control the Heavenly Profound Mirror through Divine Sky Sect methods.
And since the mirror followed the lead of the Heavenly Profound Mirror, naturally they had to find a way to counteract this. They might not be able to stop the actions of the Transcendent Lawbearers but could try to push the mirror towards transformation and resistance against the Divine Sky Sect's secret techniques.
But such a grand effort, almost using all the resources of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, to encourage cultivators to explore the white fog... Xu Bai would never believe it without the approval of the highest ruling class of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.
"Unless, this search through the fog is decided by a higher will that even the Transcendent Lawbearers cannot defy. The Heavenly Profound Mirror seeking transformation can only rely on external forces."
"And in the Xuan Huang Realm, the only thing that could make the Transcendent Lawbearers bow down..."
After analyzing all of this, Xu Bai's heart trembled.
"The Transcendent Lawbearer!"
"Has He not left? Is He still in the Xuan Huang Realm?"
A massive oppressive feeling washed over him. Xu Bai suddenly remembered that before the Great Exploration Era began, Liu San had already seen many Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance cultivators delving into the fog.
At that time, he guessed it was because the alliance might be searching for clues about the "Random Decree."
So, connecting all these dots...
Xu Bai felt a chill down his spine. "The vast divine consciousness I sensed and descended after using the Random Decree... could that have been the Transcendent Lawbearer?"
But quickly, Xu Bai frowned and dismissed this idea.
Although his performance had already been impressive, he did not believe he could deceive the Transcendent Lawbearer's eyes.
Moreover, from the time of casting the Random Decree to when the divine consciousness descended...
That period was too long. If it were really the Transcendent Lawbearer, with His cultivation, He wouldn't have reacted so slowly.
"Perhaps it was the Random Decree reacting against Mordant Death that finally caught His attention."
Xu Bai's thoughts paused.
"Or perhaps the Transcendent Lawbearer wasn't in the Xuan Huang Realm at all. Only by casting the Random Decree did I bring Him back..."
This thought made Xu Bai shudder again.
After much contemplation, he couldn't rule out this possibility.
"It seems that while the Random Decree is powerful, it can't be used casually."
"One time was a fluke, but if there's another..."
Facing the Healer of Heaven, even the True Profound technique would be affected.
If the Transcendent Lawbearer of Heaven personally arrived to suppress the Xuan Huang Realm for thousands of years, Xu Bai had no confidence in performing the True Profound before Him.
"Better not use it unless absolutely necessary." Xu Bai cursed inwardly.
Xu Bai thought about what would happen if his guesses were true. An already immortal and transcendent Transcendent Lawbearer still being so concerned with "Random Decree..."
"Is 'Random' also a true transmission from the Immortal Dao?"
Xu Bai's heart leapt at this possibility.
In his mind, scenes from the Reversal Illusory Domain flashed back.
The eerie corpses scattered on the ground and the stone tablet in the center of the domain with the word "Random" carved into it.
A hypothesis suddenly popped up in his mind.
"The cultivation realm within that illusory domain was destroyed because of the influence of 'Random.'"
"And that 'Random'..."
"It came from... the Immortal Realm!"
"As for why the Reversal Monster mistook me for the Elder Fisher of Heaven's End and said the murderer was the Healer of Heaven..."
Xu Bai suddenly recalled what Emperor San Mo had told Lu Ya.
"Sometimes, even if you see something with your own eyes, it might not be the truth."
"The influence of 'Random' cannot be ruled out as a reason for mistaking someone."
"When I faced off against Heaven's End, Heaven's Healer, and Heaven's Decree in the Cloudwater Heavenly Palace, Heaven's End admitted that he had slaughtered everyone there."
"Perhaps this Reversal Illusory Domain was also like that."
...
"The devouring essence white fog is filled with all sorts of bizarre phenomena. It's hard to say whether 'Random' played a role here."
"The Random Decree isn't just in the Xuan Huang Realm; it might have appeared in other cultivation realms as well."
"Perhaps even causing countless calamities."
"This could be why the Transcendent Lawbearer, and now the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Alliance, are so concerned with it."
Xu Bai was lost in thought when Li Fan, who had been dazed in the Longevity Valley, was suddenly awakened by Liu San.
"Young Master, is there a connection between the Heavenly Profound Mirror and the Divine Sky Sect?"
He asked.
