nà yǔn luò de chǎng jǐng ， dǎo shì gēn lán yǔ jiǎ sǐ shí yǒu xiē xiāng sì 。
那陨落的场景，倒是跟蓝羽假死时有些相似。
The scene of the fall was somewhat similar to when Lan Yu pretended to be dead.
tiān dì tóng bēi 。
天地同悲。
---
bù jǐn jǐn shì bāng máng tiān dì 。
不仅仅是帮忙天地。
Heaven and earth shared their sorrow.
bāng zhù zhè xiē bèi tiān dì shì wèi tóng méng de xiū shì ， yī jiù huì zēng jiā xuán huáng tiān dào de hǎo gǎn 。
帮助这些被天地视为同盟的修士，依旧会增加玄黄天道的好感。
It wasn't just about helping heaven and earth. Assisting these cultivators who were regarded as allies by heaven and earth would still increase the好感 from Xuanhuang's Heavenly Dao.
cóng lǐ xìng kǎo lǜ ， zài xuán huáng jiè ， dàng tiān dào de zǒu gǒu ， jué duì méi yǒu hǎo jié guǒ 。 zhǐ huì bèi wàn xiān méng gēn wǔ lǎo huì sǐ sǐ zhèn yā 。
从理性考虑，在玄黄界，当天道的走狗，绝对没有好结果。只会被万仙盟跟五老会死死镇压。
Rationally, in the Xuanhuang Realm, being a dog of the Heavenly Dao meant certain failure; he would be firmly suppressed by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association.
sī wéi zhèng cháng de xiū shì ， dōu bú huì zuò rú cǐ xuǎn zé 。
思维正常的修士，都不会做如此选择。
A rational cultivator wouldn't make such a choice. But with the aid of Truly Real Technique, Li Fan could act without any reservations.
dàn yǒu zhe hái zhēn zhī zhù ， lǐ fán què kě yǐ háo wú hòu gù zhī yōu 。
但有着还真之助，李凡却可以毫无后顾之忧。
Because Li Fan wasn't really going to be the dog of Xuanhuang's Heavenly Dao; he just needed to gain its trust.
yīn wèi lǐ fán bìng bú shì zhēn de yào zuò xuán huáng tiān dào de dǎ shǒu 。
因为李凡并不是真的要做玄黄天道的打手。
After all, doing something for you always requires some form of support or power from me.
ér zhǐ shì piàn dé tā de xìn rèn jiē kě 。
而只是骗得祂的信任皆可。
After all, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association weren't easy to deal with.
bāng nǐ zuò shì ， zǒng guī yào jiè wǒ diǎn lì liàng ba 。
帮你做事，总归要借我点力量吧。
As long as he could successfully trick a portion of Xuanhuang's remaining strength over, his goal would be achieved.
bì jìng wàn xiān méng gēn wǔ lǎo huì ， yě bú shì yì yǔ de 。
毕竟万仙盟跟五老会，也不是易与的。
For him to really engage in conflict with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association...
zhǐ yào néng chéng gōng jiāng xuán huáng tiān dào jǐn cún de lì liàng piàn guò lái xiē ， lǐ fán de mù dì jiù yǐ jīng dá dào le 。
只要能成功将玄黄天道仅存的力量骗过来些，李凡的目的就已经达到了。
That was simply impossible.
xiǎng ràng tā zhēn de gēn wàn xiān méng 、 wǔ lǎo huì huǒ bìng ……
想让他真的跟万仙盟、五老会火并……
Once Truly Real Technique took effect, Li Fan owed no one!
zì rán shì bù kě néng de 。
自然是不可能的。
"Just how should I go about gaining the trust of Xuanhuang's Heavenly Dao? We need to take our time."
yí dàn hái zhēn ， lǐ fán tā gēn běn bù qiàn shéi de ！
一旦还真，李凡他根本不欠谁的！
"This is absolutely taboo content; there are no records for reference. I can only cautiously try it myself."
“ zhǐ shì zěn me yàng ， yào yí bù bù qǔ dé xuán huáng tiān dào de xìn rèn ， hái xū cóng cháng jì yì 。”
“只是怎么样，要一步步取得玄黄天道的信任，还需从长计议。”
"Speaking of which, did I really contribute to making the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association fight?"
“ zhè shì shǔ yú jué duì de jìn jì nèi róng ， méi yǒu jì zǎi kě yǐ jiè jiàn 。 zhǐ dé wǒ zì jǐ xiǎo xīn cháng shì 。”
“这是属于绝对的禁忌内容，没有记载可以借鉴。只得我自己小心尝试。”
Li Fan suddenly raised his head, his gaze penetrating through the Spirit Wood Realm and reaching the Xuanhuang Realm's sky.
“ huà shuō huí lái ， wǒ tuī dòng wàn xiān méng gēn wǔ lǎo huì duì zhàn ， yīng gāi yě suàn de ba ？”
“话说回来，我推动万仙盟跟五老会对战，应该也算的吧？”
"No. Being quiet and hardworking won't earn my superiors' appreciation."
lǐ fán mò rán tái qǐ tóu ， shì xiàn fǎng fú chuān tòu líng mù jiè 、 zhí dá xuán huáng jiè tiān qióng 。
李凡蓦然抬起头，视线仿佛穿透灵木界、直达玄黄界天穹。
"Establishing merit without them knowing is as good as no merit at all."
“ bù xíng 。 mò mò wú wén 、 mēn tóu kǔ gàn ， kě dé bú dào shàng sī shǎng shí 。”
“不行。默默无闻、闷头苦干，可得不到上司赏识。”
"Perhaps I can use Senior Stone Plate to reach the heavens."
“ lì le gōng ， shàng miàn bù zhī dào děng yú méi lì 。”
“立了功，上面不知道等于没立。”
Li Fan had an idea. His many plans were completed in his small world or Cunyun Sea.
“ huò xǔ kě yǐ tōng guò shí bǎn qián bèi ， shàng dá tiān tīng 。”
“或许可以通过石板前辈，上达天听。”
Xuanhuang's Heavenly Dao might not know about it.
lǐ fán xīn zhōng dùn shí yǒu le zhǔ yì 。
李凡心中顿时有了主意。
He could visit Senior Stone Plate more often and report any achievements, no matter how minor.
tā de zhū duō móu huà ， dōu shì duǒ zài xiǎo shì jiè 、 cóng yún hǎi děng dì wán chéng de 。
他的诸多谋划，都是躲在小世界、丛云海等地完成的。
This would help him gain favor with both Senior Stone Plate and the heavens.
xuán huáng tiān dào wèi bì néng zhī 。
玄黄天道未必能知。
"No, if I do this myself, it might seem too deliberate."
yǐ hòu kě yǐ duō wǎng shí bǎn qián bèi nà biān pǎo pǎo ， qǔ dé le shén me zhàn guǒ 、 shì wú jù xì dōu kě yǐ shuō chū lái 。
以后可以多往石板前辈那边跑跑，取得了什么战果、事无巨细都可以说出来。
"Hmm, maybe Lin Ling can handle it."
jì néng zài shí bǎn qián bèi miàn qián shuā liǎn shú ， yě néng qǔ dé tiān dì de hǎo gǎn 。
既能在石板前辈面前刷脸熟，也能取得天地的好感。
Li Fan couldn't help but nod as he thought of Lin Ling's natural呆ness. In a brief moment of contemplation, he planned out two future paths.
“ bú duì ， rú guǒ shì wǒ qīn zì zhè me zuò ， huò xǔ yǒu diǎn tài kè yì le 。”
“不对，如果是我亲自这么做，或许有点太刻意了。”
He called Tianyang to his side. Recently, he had been helping Shangtianshi and Diao Daozi build the headquarters in the Alliance Federation within the Spirit Wood Realm.
“ ń ， kě yǐ jiāo gěi lín líng 。”
“嗯，可以交给林灵。”
Even though he hadn't been idle, Li Fan still found that Tianyang's strength was significantly greater than when they first united.
yǎn qián fú xiàn chū lín líng tiān rán dāi de mú yàng ， lǐ fán bù jīn àn zì diǎn tóu 。
眼前浮现出林灵天然呆的模样，李凡不禁暗自点头。
"Junior Apprentice Brother, let's spar."
duǎn zàn de sī suǒ jiān ， guī huà hǎo le jiāng lái de liǎng tiáo lù tú 。
短暂的思索间，规划好了将来的两条路途。
Li Fan said with a smile. Tianyang looked at him suspiciously and then his own fist before slowly shaking his head. He seemed worried about hurting Li Fan.
lǐ fán jiāng tiān yáng hǎn dào le miàn qián 。
李凡将天阳喊到了面前。
Li Fan chuckled and the aura of the Five Elements Great Caverns appeared.
zuì jìn yī duàn shí jiān ， tā dōu dāi zài líng mù jiè zhōng ， bāng zhù shāng tiān cì yǐ jí ōu dào zi jiàn zào lián hé huì zǒng bù 。
最近一段时间，他都呆在灵木界中，帮助商天赐以及欧道子建造联合会总部。
Tianyang's eyes lit up as he grinned, seemingly delighted by Li Fan's rapid improvement in strength.
jí biàn shǐ zhōng méi yǒu xián xià lái ， dàn lǐ fán yī jiù fā jué ， tiān yáng de shí lì bǐ qǐ gāng gāng hé dào shí ， réng shì qiáng le bù shǎo 。
即便始终没有闲下来，但李凡依旧发觉，天阳的实力比起刚刚合道时，仍是强了不少。
"Relax, Junior Apprentice Brother. My combat power is now no weaker than yours."
“ xiǎo shī dì ， wǒ men lái bǐ huà bǐ huà 。”
“小师弟，我们来比划比划。”
This statement sparked Tianyang's competitive spirit. He immediately became eager to test his skills.
lǐ fán hé yán yuè sè dào 。
李凡和颜悦色道。
Li Fan looked around the Spirit Wood Realm at the nearly completed headquarters and buildings of the Alliance Federation.
tiān yáng yǒu xiē hú yí de kàn zhe lǐ fán ， yòu kàn le kàn zì jǐ de quán tou 。
天阳有些狐疑的看着李凡，又看了看自己的拳头。
"The Spirit Wood Realm isn't small, but it can't withstand our battle."
suí hòu huǎn huǎn yáo tóu 。
随后缓缓摇头。
An idea struck him as he thought about a suitable location.
sì hū shì pà shāng dào lǐ fán 。
似乎是怕伤到李凡。
"Follow me."
lǐ fán hē hē yī xiào ， shǔ yú wǔ xíng dà dòng tiān de qì xī liú lù jǐ fēn 。
李凡呵呵一笑，属于五行大洞天的气息流露几分。
Exiting the Spirit Wood Realm, they flew through the Four States to arrive in the current Linghuan State.
tiān yáng de yǎn jīng dùn shí liàng le qǐ lái 。
天阳的眼睛顿时亮了起来。
This state harbored a small world called Soul Yin.
liě zuǐ yī xiào ， sì hū shì wèi lǐ fán de shí lì dà jìn gǎn dào xīn xǐ 。
咧嘴一笑，似乎是为李凡的实力大进感到欣喜。
In the 115th era, among the many small worlds discovered by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, Soul Yin was particularly unique. The humans who migrated into this world had all mysteriously perished, leaving behind countless ghostly souls that drifted through the heavens and earth.
“ fàng xīn ba xiǎo shī dì 。 rú jīn wǒ de zhàn lì ， kě bù ruò yú nǐ 。”
“放心吧小师弟。如今我的战力，可不弱于你。”
These souls seemed related to spatial forces, greatly benefiting the裂界 Whales. The whales occasionally came to feed on these souls after their disappearance, which were naturally regenerated by the heavens and earth.
zhè yī jù huà ， què shì jī qǐ le tiān yáng de hào shèng xīn 。 tā dāng jí yuè yuè yù shì qǐ lái 。
这一句话，却是激起了天阳的好胜心。他当即跃跃欲试起来。
As a result, in all small worlds with裂界 Whales, Soul Yin was the most prosperous for the whale clans.
lǐ fán huán gù líng mù jiè ， kàn zhe hǎo bù róng yì ， yǐ jīng yǒu diǎn chéng xíng de lián huì hé zǒng bù jiàn zhù qún 。
李凡环顾灵木界，看着好不容易，已经有点成型的联会和总部建筑群。
The whales continuously opened spatial channels, making Soul Yin the farthest from Xuanhuang's Realm.
“ líng mù jiè suī rán bù xiǎo ， què yě jīng bù qǐ wǒ men èr rén zhàn dòu bō jí 。”
“灵木界虽然不小，却也经不起我们二人战斗波及。”
"In the 115th era, the immortal squad that went to explore directly lost contact. We originally thought they had met with misfortune, but it turned out to be due to their distance, losing even ordinary communication means."
xīn zhōng yī dòng ， lǐ fán shùn jiān jiù xiǎng dào le yī chù hé shì de dì fāng 。
心中一动，李凡瞬间就想到了一处合适的地方。
"The vast void is perfect for me and Tianyang to unleash our full power."
“ suí wǒ lái 。”
“随我来。”
With this in mind, Li Fan found the entrance to Soul Yin.
chū le líng mù jiè ， èr rén yī qián yī hòu ， chuān yuè le sì zhōu zhī dì ， lái dào le rú jīn de láng huán zhōu jìng nèi 。
出了灵木界，二人一前一后，穿越了四州之地，来到了如今的琅嬛州境内。
After setting up an array to conceal them, he flew into the small world first.
cǐ zhōu yǐn cáng yǒu yī xiǎo shì jiè ， míng wèi 【 hún yīn 】。
此州隐藏有一小世界，名为【魂阴】。
A sense of deep darkness instantly enveloped him.
115 shì de shí hòu ， zài wàn xiān méng tàn míng de zhū duō xiǎo shì jiè zhōng ， zhè hún yīn jiè shì jí wéi tè shū de yí gè 。
115世的时候，在万仙盟探明的诸多小世界中，这魂阴界是极为特殊的一个。
The sensation was completely different from flying through the spatial channels leading to Da Li and Da Xuan.
dāng chū qiān xǐ jìn cǐ jiè de fán rén ， bù zhī wèi hé quán dōu miè jué 。
当初迁徙进此界的凡人，不知为何全都灭绝。
An unusual oppressive atmosphere filled his heart.
zhǐ liú xià wú shù lèi sì yú hún tǐ de guǐ mèi líng yǐng ， piāo dàng zài tiān dì jiān 。
只留下无数类似于魂体的鬼魅灵影，飘荡在天地间。
Even the usually slow-witted Tianyang showed a serious expression.
ér zhè zhǒng hún tǐ ， sì hū gēn kōng jiān lì liàng yǒu guān 。
而这种魂体，似乎跟空间力量有关。
"Such feelings..."
duì liè jiè jīng jū rán shì dà bǔ zhī wù 。
对裂界鲸居然是大补之物。
Li Fan narrowed his eyes, pondering deeply. After some time, he had an epiphany: "It's like humans in deep sea..."
lí jiè jīng qún ， ǒu rán fā xiàn le hún yīn jiè de cún zài hòu ， jiù shí bù shí qián lái bǔ shí 。
离界鲸群，偶然发现了魂阴界的存在后，就时不时前来捕食。
"Is it because of the great distance from Xuanhuang's Realm?"
ér zhè hún tǐ zài xiāo shī zhī hòu ， yòu huì yóu tiān dì zì rán chóng xīn yùn yù 。
而这魂体在消失之后，又会由天地自然重新孕育。
"The information I gathered didn't mention this point. No wonder no one has seen any members of that exploration squad since their return."
chéng le liè jiè jīng tiān rán de 、 zuì hǎo de kǒu liáng 。
成了裂界鲸天然的、最好的口粮。
"It seems crossing endless space isn't as easy as I thought."
yīn ér ， zài suǒ yǒu cún zài liè jiè jīng de xiǎo shì jiè zhōng ， zhè hún yīn jiè shì liè jiè jīng zú qún fā zhǎn de zuì wèi fán shèng de 。
因而，在所有存在裂界鲸的小世界中，这魂阴界是裂界鲸族群发展的最为繁盛的。
Li Fan pondered for a long time and temporarily pushed these thoughts aside.
liè jiè jīng rì yè kāi pì kōng jiān tōng dào ， zhè hún yīn jiè lí xuán huáng jiè ， yě shì zuì yuǎn 。
裂界鲸日夜开辟空间通道，这魂阴界离玄黄界，也是最远。
He continued flying through the spatial channels for half a day, feeling far enough away before stopping.
“115 shì de shí hòu ， qián wǎng tàn suǒ de xiān méng xiǎo duì zhí jiē shī lián le 。 yuán běn hái yǐ wéi tā men cǎn zāo bù cè ， què méi xiǎng dào shì jù lí tài yuǎn ， lián xún cháng de tōng xùn shǒu duàn dōu shī qù le xiào yòng 。”
“115世的时候，前往探索的仙盟小队直接失联了。原本还以为他们惨遭不测，却没想到是距离太远，连寻常的通讯手段都失去了效用。”
"Junior Apprentice Brother, please go first," Li Fan said solemnly.
“ guǎng mào de xū wú kōng jiān ， zhèng shì hé wǒ gēn tiān yáng jìn qíng chū shǒu 。”
“广袤的虚无空间，正适合我跟天阳尽情出手。”
Tianyang nodded. Without hesitation, a sense of pressure appeared.
zhè me xiǎng zhe ， lǐ fán zhǎo dào le hún yīn jiè de rù kǒu 。
这么想着，李凡找到了魂阴界的入口。
His body revealed its red and black form as the essence of heaven and earth.
zài zhōu wéi bù xià zhèn fǎ zhē yǎn hòu ， lǐ fán shuài xiān fēi rù qí zhōng 。
在周围布下阵法遮掩后，李凡率先飞入其中。
Li Fan instantly felt that his surroundings were completely locked down by space.
yōu hēi 、 shēn suì zhī gǎn ， shùn jiān yǒng lái 。
幽黑、深邃之感，瞬间涌来。
His limbs seemed bound with heavy chains, unable to move.
gēn zài tōng wǎng dà lí 、 dà xuán de kōng jiān tōng dào zhōng fēi xíng de gǎn jué wán quán bù yí yàng 。
跟在通往大离、大玄的空间通道中飞行的感觉完全不一样。
"This is the power of space."
yī gǔ qí yì de yā yì fēn wéi ， yǒng xiàn zài lǐ fán xīn tóu 。
一股奇异的压抑氛围，涌现在李凡心头。
Li Fan knew Tianyang was holding back. Otherwise, this spatial force would have torn him apart in an instant!
jiù lián xiàng lái yǒu xiē chí dùn de tiān yáng ， yě hǎn jiàn de liú lù chū níng zhòng de shén qíng 。
就连向来有些迟钝的天阳，也罕见的流露出凝重的神情。
"Junior Apprentice Brother, I said, give it your all!"
“ zhè zhǒng gǎn jué ……”
“这种感觉……”
Without trying to break free from the spatial constraints, Li Fan's expression turned serious as he spoke.
lǐ fán mī qǐ le yǎn jīng ， xì xì tǐ wù zhe 。
李凡眯起了眼睛，细细体悟着。
Tianyang was taken aback.
xǔ jiǔ zhī hòu ， yǒu xiē huǎng rán ：“ jiù xiàng shì fán rén chù zài shēn hǎi zhī zhōng ……”
许久之后，有些恍然：“就像是凡人处在深海之中……”
Then, Li Fan felt his surroundings becoming even more profound. It seemed like a无形 monster had bitten him.
“ shì yīn wèi jù lí xuán huáng jiè tài yuǎn de yuán gù me ？”
“是因为距离玄黄界太远的缘故么？”
His head, hands, and feet instantly vanished into darkness.
“ zhī qián suǒ sōu jí de xìn xī zhōng ， dǎo shì méi yǒu tí jí zhè yì diǎn 。 nán guài nà zhǐ tàn suǒ xiǎo duì de chéng yuán ， zì huí lái hòu jiù zài yě méi yǒu rén jiàn dào guò le 。”
“之前所搜集的信息中，倒是没有提及这一点。难怪那只探索小队的成员，自回来后就再也没有人见到过了。”
Only his naked torso floated helplessly in mid-air.
“ kàn lái xiǎng yào héng dù wú jìn xū kōng ， bìng bú shì wǒ xiǎng xiàng zhōng de nà me róng yì 。”
“看来想要横渡无尽虚空，并不是我想象中的那么容易。”
If it were an ancient cultivator, this moment would have been the end of their life and dao.
lǐ fán chén sī xǔ jiǔ ， zàn qiě jiāng zhè xiē niàn tou yā xià 。
李凡沉思许久，暂且将这些念头压下。
But for new-cave swallowing cultivators, it was just a minor injury.
jì xù shùn zhe kōng jiān tōng dào ， fēi xíng le xiǎo bàn tiān de shí jiān 。
继续顺着空间通道，飞行了小半天的时间。
Bang!
jué de yǐ jīng gòu yuǎn le ， zhè cái tíng xià shēn xíng 。
觉得已经够远了，这才停下身形。
Li Fan's body exploded into a bloody mist.
“ xiǎo shī dì ， qǐng chū zhāo ba 。” lǐ fán chén shēng dào 。
“小师弟，请出招吧。”李凡沉声道。
His voice echoed through the void around Tianyang as if it were thunder.
tiān yáng diǎn le diǎn tóu ， èr huà bù shuō ， yī gǔ wēi yā xiǎn xiàn 。
天阳点了点头，二话不说，一股威压显现。
"Junior Apprentice Brother, my turn now!"
lù chū le hóng hēi xiāng jiàn de tiān dì zhī pò shēn qū 。
露出了红黑相间的天地之魄身躯。

Li Fan had an idea. His many plans were completed in his small world or Cunyun Sea.
Xuanhuang's Heavenly Dao might not know about it.
He could visit Senior Stone Plate more often and report any achievements, no matter how minor.
This would help him gain favor with both Senior Stone Plate and the heavens.
