qí zhōng gǎn yìng fǎn kuì zuì wèi qiáng liè de ， zhèng shì lái zì lí jiè sū yǔ qíng 。
其中感应反馈最为强烈的，正是来自离界苏语晴。
Among all the感应 feedback, Su Yuning's reaction was the strongest.
huò xǔ shì tā qiè zhēn huò dé xiū wèi hǎo chù de yuán gù ， tā duì yú 【 hóng chén cí bēi zhēn xiān 】 de xìn yǎng zuì wèi chún cuì 、 chì liè 。
或许是她切真获得修为好处的缘故，她对于【红尘慈悲真仙】的信仰最为纯粹、炽烈。
Perhaps due to her genuine gain in cultivation benefits, she had the purest and most intense faith in the True Immortal of Compassion in Red Dust World.
bǐ qǐ qián bù jiǔ ， lǐ fán néng gòu guān chá tā zhōu wéi de qíng jǐng 。
比起前不久，李凡能够观察她周围的情景。
Compared to just a short while ago when Li Fan could only observe the surroundings around her, he now occasionally sensed thoughts from within her mind.
cǐ kè shèn zhì jū rán néng ǒu ěr gǎn yìng dào duì fāng xīn zhōng de xiǎng fǎ 。
此刻甚至居然能偶尔感应到对方心中的想法。
"Thanks to the true immortal's grace, I can safely return with everyone during this expedition against the Fire World."
“ duō kuī le zhēn xiān jiàng xià ēn zé ， zhè cì zhēng fá huǒ shì jiè ， wǒ cái néng dài zhe dà jiā ān quán fǎn huí 。”
“多亏了真仙降下恩泽，这次征伐火世界，我才能带着大家安全返回。”
"I dare not violate my previous promise. From now on, I vow to serve by your side until death."
“ xiǎo nǚ zǐ bù gǎn wéi bèi zhī qián nuò yán 。 cóng jīn wǎng hòu ， yuàn zhōng shēn shì fèng zuǒ yòu 、 zhì sǐ bù yú 。”
“小女子不敢违背之前诺言。从今往后，愿终身侍奉左右、至死不渝。”
Su Yuning respectfully bowed several times towards the faceless stone statue she had carved herself.
sū yǔ qíng gōng gōng jìng jìng de cháo zhe tā zì jǐ diāo kè de wú miàn shí xiàng kē le jǐ gè xiǎng tóu 。
苏语晴恭恭敬敬的朝着她自己雕刻的无面石像磕了几个响头。
At that moment, Li Fan sensed a mysterious force transcending time and space descend upon him.
ér zhè shí ， lǐ fán chá jué dào ， yǒu yī gǔ mò míng de lì liàng chuān yuè shí kōng de xiàn zhì 、 jiàng lín dào zì jǐ shēn shàng 。
而这时，李凡察觉到，有一股莫名的力量穿越时空的限制、降临到自己身上。
It was only a thin thread compared to his vast power, almost negligible in comparison.
zhǐ yǒu báo báo yī sī ， gēn tā hào rú yān hǎi de lì liàng bǐ qǐ lái ， jī hū kě yǐ hū lüè bù jì 。
只有薄薄一丝，跟他浩如烟海的力量比起来，几乎可以忽略不计。
And like the feedback from True Real Technique, it felt similar but with different energy essence.
ér qiě gēn zuò xiān jué de fǎn kuì xiū wèi yǒu diǎn lèi sì ， zhǐ shì néng liàng běn zhì bìng bù xiāng tóng 。
而且跟坐仙诀的反馈修为有点类似，只是能量本质并不相同。
Once this force appeared within his body, it diverged sharply from his spirit energy.
dāng zhè ge lì liàng chū xiàn zài tǐ nèi zhī hòu ， yǔ líng lì jīng wèi fēn míng 。
当这个力量出现在体内之后，与灵力泾渭分明。
Instead of flowing towards his dantian, it stealthily approached his识海.
bìng bú shì yǒng xiàng dān tián ， ér shì cháo zhe lǐ fán de shí hǎi qián fú guò lái 。
并不是涌向丹田，而是朝着李凡的识海潜伏过来。
Li Fan, who had always been wary of faceless true immortals, would not let it succeed so easily.
yì zhí duì wú miàn zhēn xiān yǒu suǒ fáng fàn de lǐ fán ， yòu zěn me kě néng ràng tā dé chěng ？
一直对无面真仙有所防范的李凡，又怎么可能让它得逞？
Seven-colored divine light emerged, forming layer upon layer of light cocoons to encircle this foreign energy.
qī cǎi shén guāng yǒng xiàn ， xíng chéng yī céng yòu yī céng de guāng jiǎn ， jiāng zhè gǔ yì zhǒng néng liàng gěi bāo wéi le qǐ lái 。
七彩神光涌现，形成一层又一层的光茧，将这股异种能量给包围了起来。
After being sealed off, the reaction from this energy surprised Li Fan somewhat.
bèi fēng suǒ zhī hòu ， zhè gǔ néng liàng de fǎn yìng yě shì yǒu diǎn chū hū lǐ fán de yì liào 。
被封锁之后，这股能量的反应也是有点出乎李凡的意料。
It did not resist fiercely but quietly settled down.
bìng méi yǒu shí fēn jī liè de fǎn kàng ， zhǐ shì ān jìng chén diàn xià lái 。
并没有十分激烈的反抗，只是安静沉淀下来。
Unlike his own spirit energy emitting a faint white glow, this energy, though extremely weak and seemingly golden like gold, seemed to be of a higher grade than spirit energy.
gēn lǐ fán zì shēn líng lì sàn fà zhe yíng yíng bái guāng bù tóng ， zhè gǔ néng liàng suī rán zhǐ yǒu jí ruò de yī sī 、 ruò néng rú huáng jīn bān shǎn yào 。
跟李凡自身灵力散发着莹莹白光不同，这股能量虽然只有极弱的一丝、若能如黄金般闪耀。
Li Fan carefully observed this golden energy in silence.
sì hū qí pǐn jí ， bǐ qǐ líng lì hái yào gèng gāo yì diǎn 。
似乎其品级，比起灵力还要更高一点。
He knew it was due to the faceless true immortal stone statue transforming Su Yuning's gratitude and faith into something else.
lǐ fán zǐ xì guān chá zhe zhè huáng jīn néng liàng ， jiǔ jiǔ bù yǔ 。
李凡仔细观察着这黄金能量，久久不语。
"Is this the legendary power of faith? Or perhaps the collective willpower of all beings?"
tā zhī dào ， zhè shì yīn wèi wú miàn zhēn xiàng shí xiàng de zuò yòng ， jiāng sū yǔ qíng xīn zhōng de gǎn jī 、 xìn yǎng ， zhuǎn huà zhī hòu ér xíng chéng de 。
他知道，这是因为无面真相石像的作用，将苏语晴心中的感激、信仰，转化之后而形成的。
"Or is there more?"
“ chuán shuō zhōng de xìn yǎng zhī lì ？ yì huò zhě shì zhòng shēng yuàn lì ？”
“传说中的信仰之力？亦或者是众生愿力？”
"Hmm, too little information. I'll call it willpower for now."
“ hái shì qí tā ？”
“还是其他？”
Li Fan's expression was serious.
“ ń qíng bào tài shǎo ， zàn qiě jiāng qí chēng hū wèi yuàn lì ba 。”
“嗯情报太少，暂且将其称呼为愿力吧。”
Even knowing that this golden willpower was a poisonous candy, he had no choice but to swallow it at the moment.
lǐ fán shén qíng yán sù 。
李凡神情严肃。
The connection between the statue and him was established; unless he immediately practiced True Real Technique, this golden willpower would always appear in his body regardless of how far away he was from the statue.
jí biàn zhī dào zhè jīn sè yuàn lì ， shì yǒu dú de táng guǒ 。
即便知道这金色愿力，是有毒的糖果。
Moreover, this golden willpower did not just appear once.
cǐ kè de lǐ fán yě bù dé bù tūn 。
此刻的李凡也不得不吞。
As Su Yuning continued her devout prayers, another thread of golden willpower formed and flowed towards Li Fan's识海.
shén xiàng gēn tā de lián xì yǐ chéng ， chú fēi tā lì kè hái zhēn ， fǒu zé wú lùn tā gēn shí xiàng jù lí duō yuǎn ， zhè jīn sè yuàn lì zǒng huì chū xiàn zài tā de tǐ nèi 。
神像跟他的联系已成，除非他立刻还真，否则无论他跟石像距离多远，这金色愿力总会出现在他的体内。
"Killing Su Yuning won't help."
ér qiě ， zhè jīn sè yuàn lì bù jǐn jǐn shì zhǐ chū xiàn yī cì de 。
而且，这金色愿力不仅仅是只出现一次的。
Those who had sworn before the statue were already becoming machines for generating golden willpower.
suí zhe sū yǔ qíng bù duàn qián chéng de qí dǎo ， guò le bù jiǔ ， yòu yǒu yī sī jīn sè yuàn lì xíng chéng 。
随着苏语晴不断虔诚的祈祷，过了不久，又有一丝金色愿力形成。
Even if they couldn't match Su Yuning now, over time, the influence of the faceless stone statue on them would grow deeper.
àn zhào tóng yàng de yùn xíng guǐ jì ， cháo zhe lǐ fán de shí hǎi yǒng lái 。
按照同样的运行轨迹，朝着李凡的识海涌来。
One day, they too would be like her.
“ shā le sū yǔ qíng yě méi yòng 。”
“杀了苏语晴也没用。”
Li Fan's eyes narrowed as he remained calm and thought of a strategy.
“ nà xiē zài shí xiàng qián fā guò shì de xiū shì men ， shí zé dōu yǐ jīng chéng wéi le jīn sè yuàn lì de shēng chéng jī qì 。”
“那些在石像前发过誓的修士们，实则都已经成为了金色愿力的生成机器。”
Still using his seven-colored divine light to precisely isolate these golden willpowers from each other.
“ jí biàn tā men xiàn zài hái wú fǎ zuò dào xiàng sū yǔ qíng zhè bān ， kě suí zhe shí jiān tuī yí ， wú miàn shí xiàng duì tā men qián yí mò huà de yǐng xiǎng yuè lái yuè shēn 。”
“即便他们现在还无法做到像苏语晴这般，可随着时间推移，无面石像对他们潜移默化的影响越来越深。”
They gathered in one place just as before.
“ zǒng yǒu yī tiān tā men yě huì rú cǐ 。”
“总有一天他们也会如此。”
Proving that Li Fan’s many lifetimes of gathering various secrets had not been in vain, he quickly came up with a solution.
lǐ fán shuāng yǎn wēi mī ， suī jīng bù luàn ， sī suǒ zhe duì cè 。
李凡双眼微眯，虽惊不乱，思索着对策。
After releasing the seven-colored divine light's seal on the golden willpower, he forcefully guided it to slowly accumulate in his dantian.
tóng shí yī jiù shì dòng yòng qī cǎi shén guāng ， jīng què de jiāng zhè xiē jīn sè yuàn lì gēn gé jué kāi lái 。
同时依旧是动用七彩神光，精确的将这些金色愿力跟隔绝开来。
When these energies still tried to move towards his识海, a phantom figure suddenly formed within his dantian.
gēn zhī qián de huì jù zài yī chù 。
跟之前的汇聚在一处。
It seemed like a vortex, pulling those golden willpowers that were about to escape and absorb them.
shì shí zhèng míng ， lǐ fán lún huí duō shì 、 dào chù sōu jí gè zhǒng mì xīn ， zhè bìng fēi wú yòng zhī jǔ 。
事实证明，李凡轮回多世、到处搜集各种秘辛，这并非无用之举。
"Sure enough, effective," Li Fan thought with relief.
hěn kuài ， tā jiù xiǎng dào le yìng duì zhī cè 。
很快，他就想到了应对之策。
This phantom figure was the劫身he had used to store excess cultivation in when he hit a bottleneck before.
yī fān shí yàn zhī xià ， jū rán xiào guǒ jué jiā 。
一番实验之下，居然效果绝佳。
He hadn't been trapped by bottlenecks for a long time, so this method of using the劫身had not been used much recently.
zhǐ jiàn lǐ fán fàng kāi qī cǎi shén guāng duì jīn sè yuàn lì de fēng suǒ ， ér hòu qiáng xíng yǐn dǎo zhè xiē yì zhǒng néng liàng ， huǎn huǎn jù jí yú dān tián zhī zhōng 。
只见李凡放开七彩神光对金色愿力的封锁，而后强行引导这些异种能量，缓缓聚集于丹田之中。
But now, facing this troublesome golden willpower, it proved effective.
dāng tā men yī jiù bù zěn me ān fèn ， hái xiǎng yào chǔn chǔn yù dòng cháo zhe shí hǎi liú qù de shí hòu 。
当它们依旧不怎么安分，还想要蠢蠢欲动朝着识海流去的时候。
The secret technique of劫身originated from The Supreme Primordial True Scripture.
yí gè xū huàn de shēn yǐng ， hū de zài dān tián zhōng chéng xíng 。
一个虚幻的身影，忽的在丹田中成型。
In ancient cultivation worlds, some cultivators might experience instability in their foundations due to rapid progress.
wǎn ruò yí gè xuán wō ， jiāng nà xiē gāng zhǔn bèi yuǎn lí de jīn sè yuàn lì gēn xī shōu jìn qù 。
宛若一个漩涡，将那些刚准备远离的金色愿力跟吸收进去。
To counteract this, they would voluntarily suppress their cultivation levels and solidify their foundations.
“ guǒ rán yǒu xiào 。” lǐ fán xīn zhōng yī xǐ 。
“果然有效。”李凡心中一喜。
Different sects had different methods. Taiyi Sect’s method was to form a phantom figure within the dantian to accommodate excess cultivation.
zhè xū huàn shēn yǐng ， jiù shì cǐ qián lǐ fán xiū wèi xiàn rù píng jǐng shí 、 yòng lái cún chǔ yì chū xiū wèi de 【 jié shēn 】。
这虚幻身影，就是此前李凡修为陷入瓶颈时、用来存储溢出修为的【劫身】。
Taiyi believed that foundation instability was one of the cultivation trials, so this phantom figure used to deal with such trials was called a劫身.
tā yǐ jīng xǔ jiǔ méi yǒu bèi kùn píng jǐng le ， méi yǒu yì chū 、 làng fèi de fǎn kuì xiū wèi ， zhè jié shēn zhī fǎ zì rán yě hěn zhǎng shí jiān méi yǒu yòng dào le 。
他已经许久没有被困瓶颈了，没有溢出、浪费的反馈修为，这劫身之法自然也很长时间没有用到了。
"True transmission from Taiyi Sect, originating from Grand Master Tiandu."
bù xiǎng rú jīn ， miàn duì zhè má fán de jīn sè yuàn lì shí ， yǒu le qí xiào 。
不想如今，面对这麻烦的金色愿力时，有了奇效。
"And Grand Master Tiandu is like the half-immortal body of Xuanwang. He might have also inherited many Immortal World legacies during that trial."
jié shēn mì fǎ ， lái zì 《 tài shàng yuán shǐ zhēn jīng 》。
劫身秘法，来自《太上原始真经》。
"Being able to handle this clearly higher-grade golden willpower is not surprising."
shàng gǔ xiū xiān jiè ， ǒu ěr huì yǒu xiū shì xiū liàn sù dù guò kuài ， dǎo zhì gēn jī bù wěn de qíng kuàng fā shēng 。
上古修仙界，偶尔会有修士修炼速度过快，导致根基不稳的情况发生。
Li Fan thought to himself.
zhè shí hòu jiù xū yào xiū shì zhǔ dòng de yā zhù zì shēn jìng jiè ， hāng shí gēn jī 。
这时候就需要修士主动的压住自身境界，夯实根基。
With the劫身accommodating, the golden willpower seemed to find its home.
gè zōng cǎi qǔ de fāng fǎ gè yǒu bù tóng 。
各宗采取的方法各有不同。
From then on, it naturally flowed towards the golden劫身in his dantian without Li Fan's explicit guidance.
tài shàng zōng cǎi qǔ de fāng fǎ ， jiù shì zài dān tián nèi bù xíng chéng yī jù xū huàn de shēn yǐng ， yòng lái róng nà duō yú de xiū wèi 。
太上宗采取的方法，就是在丹田内部形成一具虚幻的身影，用来容纳多余的修为。
Seeing this, Li Fan felt a sense of relief.
yīn wèi tài shàng zōng rèn wéi gēn jī bù wěn nǎi shì xiū xíng jié nàn zhī yī ， suǒ yǐ zhè yòng lái yìng duì jié nàn de xū huàn shēn yǐng ， yòu bèi chēng zhī wèi 【 jié shēn 】。
因为太上宗认为根基不稳乃是修行劫难之一，所以这用来应对劫难的虚幻身影，又被称之为【劫身】。
"The crisis is temporarily resolved."
“ tài shàng zōng zhēn chuán ， yuán yú tiān dōu dà fǎ shī 。”
“太上宗真传，源于天都大法师。”
"This劫身is a single entity that can be discarded at any time; it won't affect my main body in any way."
“ ér tiān dōu dà fǎ shī ， yòu shì gēn xuán tiān wáng yī yàng de bàn xiān zhī qū 。 hěn yǒu kě néng yě zài dāng nián de jié nàn zhōng ， huò dé le zhū duō xiān jiè yí chuán 。”
“而天都大法师，又是跟玄天王一样的半仙之躯。很有可能也在当年的劫难中，获得了诸多仙界遗传。”
"Even if the worst-case scenario occurs and the劫身forms like Xu Bai from 115th lifetime, without its own thoughts, it would still be easier to handle."
“ néng yìng duì zhè míng xiǎn chāo guò líng lì yī jiē de jīn sè yuàn lì ， yě bù zú wéi qí 。”
“能应对这明显超过灵力一阶的金色愿力，也不足为奇。”
"At present, there are no other abnormalities besides being a simple energy crystallization."
lǐ fán àn zì sī cǔn dào 。
李凡暗自思忖道。
After carefully confirming again, Li Fan nodded slightly.
yǒu le 【 jié shēn 】 róng nà ， jīn sè yuàn lì yě fǎng fú zhǎo dào le guī sù yī yàng 。
有了【劫身】容纳，金色愿力也仿佛找到了归宿一样。
He felt that as he absorbed more golden willpower, the劫身could potentially be directly detonated in the future.
jiē xià lái ， yòng bù zhe lǐ fán kè yì zhǐ yǐn ， jiù huì cháo zhe dān tián zhī zhōng de jīn sè jié shēn huì jù ér qù 。
接下来，用不着李凡刻意指引，就会朝着丹田之中的金色劫身汇聚而去。
Li Fan was uncertain about how powerful such an explosion would be.
jiàn zhuàng ， lǐ fán bù yóu sōng le kǒu qì 。
见状，李凡不由松了口气。
But he knew that direct detonation might just be the lowest-level use of this golden willpower.
“ wēi jī zàn shí jiě jué 。”
“危机暂时解决。”
"Blood on a knife's edge..."
“ zhè jié shēn dān dú yī tǐ ， kě yǐ suí shí shě qì ， bú huì duì běn zūn zào chéng rèn hé yǐng xiǎng 。”
“这劫身单独一体，可以随时舍弃，不会对本尊造成任何影响。”
Li Fan's eyes were deep as he murmured to himself.
“ jiù suàn zuì huài de qíng kuàng ， jié shēn xíng chéng gēn 115 shì de xǔ bái yī yàng de dān dú gè tǐ 。 méi yǒu zì jǐ sī wéi ， yě hǎo yìng fù xǔ duō 。”
“就算最坏的情况，劫身形成跟115世的许白一样的单独个体。没有自己思维，也好应付许多。”
He knew all too well the risks behind this golden willpower, but with True Real Technique providing a safety net, he didn't have to be overly cautious about everything.
“ mù qián zhǐ shì dān chún de néng liàng jié jīng ， bìng méi yǒu chū xiàn qí tā yì cháng 。”
“目前只是单纯的能量结晶，并没有出现其他异常。”
Just as Li Fan was pondering how to deal with this golden willpower in the future, he suddenly felt an anomaly within his body!
lǐ fán zài dù xiǎo xīn guān chá què rèn zhī hòu ， wēi wēi diǎn tóu 。
李凡再度小心观察确认之后，微微点头。
And the source of this anomaly...
tā xīn zhōng yǒu zhǒng gǎn jué ， suí zhe xī shōu 、 róng nà de jīn sè yuàn lì yuè lái yuè duō ， zhè jù jié shēn jiē xià lái shèn zhì kě yǐ zhí jiē bèi yǐn bào 。
他心中有种感觉，随着吸收、容纳的金色愿力越来越多，这具劫身接下来甚至可以直接被引爆。
It came from the dark gold skull sealed by seven-colored divine light inside the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven and the gray mold spots residing within it!
lǐ fán bù què dìng ， dào shí hòu zhè bào zhà jiū jìng huì yǒu duō dà de wēi lì 。
李凡不确定，到时候这爆炸究竟会有多大的威力。
Perhaps due to the accumulated golden willpower reaching a certain level, even though sealed in the cave heaven, the gray mold spots sensed its presence.
dàn tā míng bái ， zhí jiē yǐn bào 、 huò xǔ zhǐ shì jīn sè yuàn lì zuì dī jí de yī zhǒng yòng fǎ 。
但他明白，直接引爆、或许只是金色愿力最低级的一种用法。
Like a starved beast suddenly catching an intense scent of blood, the gray mold spots surged out from the skull for the first time, fiercely冲击ing the seven-colored divine light walls around it.
“ dāo jiān tiǎn xuè a ……”
“刀尖舔血啊……”
The seven-colored divine light was consumed at an alarming rate.
lǐ fán yǎn shén yōu suì ， nán nán dī yǔ dào 。
李凡眼神幽邃，喃喃低语道。
Li Fan's expression darkened as he activated the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven’s spirit energy flow, quickly generating support.
tā yòu hé cháng bù zhī dào zhè jīn sè yuàn lì bèi hòu kě néng yùn cáng de fēng xiǎn 。
他又何尝不知道这金色愿力背后可能蕴藏的风险。
(End of Chapter)
Among all the感应 feedback, Su Yuning's reaction was the strongest.
Perhaps due to her genuine gain in cultivation benefits, she had the purest and most intense faith in the True Immortal of Compassion in Red Dust World.
Compared to just a short while ago when Li Fan could only observe the surroundings around her, he now occasionally sensed thoughts from within her mind.
"Thanks to the true immortal's grace, I can safely return with everyone during this expedition against the Fire World."
"I dare not violate my previous promise. From now on, I vow to serve by your side until death."
Su Yuning respectfully bowed several times towards the faceless stone statue she had carved herself.
At that moment, Li Fan sensed a mysterious force transcending time and space descend upon him.
It was only a thin thread compared to his vast power, almost negligible in comparison.
And like the feedback from True Real Technique, it felt similar but with different energy essence.
Once this force appeared within his body, it diverged sharply from his spirit energy.
Instead of flowing towards his dantian, it stealthily approached his识海.
