jiù rú tóng duì zhèng xià yào yī yàng 。 tiān yī zèng yǔ de jīn zhēn zài gēn lǐ fán shén hún jiē chù zhī hòu ， suí zhī fā shēng le xíng biàn 。
就如同对症下药一样。天医赠与的金针在跟李凡神魂接触之后，随之发生了形变。
Just like treating a specific ailment, the golden needles given by Heavenly Healer underwent a change in shape after making contact with Li Fan's soul essence.
yī zhào lǐ fán shén hún de xíng zhuàng ， zài wài wéi xíng chéng le yī quān jǐn jǐn bāo guǒ de bǎo hù céng 。
依照李凡神魂的形状，在外围形成了一圈紧紧包裹的保护层。
A protective layer formed around the outer perimeter of the needles, conforming to the shape of Li Fan’s soul essence.
“ nán guài bù yòng liàn huà jiù néng rú bì zhǐ shǐ ， zhè jiǎn zhí jiù gēn liàng shēn dìng zào de fǎ bǎo yì bān 、 wú bǐ qì hé shén hún 。”
“难怪不用炼化就能如臂指使，这简直就跟量身订造的法宝一般、无比契合神魂。”
"Of course, it doesn't need to be refined; one can control it as easily as an arm or a finger. This is like a tailor-made treasure artifact that fits the soul perfectly."
“ ér qiě ……”
“而且……”
"And..."
lǐ fán wēi mī zhuó yǎn ， dòng yòng shén hún zhī lì ， yóu nèi ér wài duì zhè céng jīn zhēn fáng hù fà dòng le chōng jī 。
李凡微眯着眼，动用神魂之力，由内而外对这层金针防护发动了冲击。
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and used his soul essence to launch an internal attack on this layer of protection.
shén hún chōng jī zài pèng zhuàng dào fáng hù céng de shùn jiān ， lǐ fán jiù gǎn dào bèi yī gǔ róu ruǎn dàng kāi ， suí hòu rú tóng zhèn zhèn lián yī 、 cháo zhe chōng jī diǎn zhōu wéi kuò sàn 。
神魂冲击在碰撞到防护层的瞬间，李凡就感到被一股柔软荡开，随后如同阵阵涟漪、朝着冲击点周围扩散。
The moment the soul essence impact collided with the protective layer, Li Fan felt a softness spreading outwards, akin to ripples diffusing from the point of impact.
jiāng chōng jī lì píng jūn fēn dān ， ér hòu qīng yì huà jiě 。
将冲击力平均分担，而后轻易化解。
The force was evenly distributed and easily neutralized.
fáng hù céng nèi bù dōu yǒu rú cǐ bǎo hù lì dù ， wài biǎo de jiān rèn xìng jiù gèng kě xiǎng ér zhī le 。
防护层内部都有如此保护力度，外表的坚韧性就更可想而知了。
Given the protective strength within, one could only imagine how robust the outer layer must be.
lǐ fán zài bù duàn shì yàn zhī hòu ， gěi chū le “ gù ruò jīn tāng ” sì gè zì de píng jià 。
李凡在不断试验之后，给出了“固若金汤”四个字的评价。
After numerous experiments, Li Fan concluded that it was "as solid as a golden fortress."
“ bù guò jīn zhēn de fáng hù zhǐ xiàn yú shén hún fāng miàn ， ruò shì dān chún duì ròu tǐ de pò huài ， qí bǎo hù zuò yòng fǎn dào bù rú xún cháng de kuī jiǎ fǎ bǎo 。”
“不过金针的防护只限于神魂方面，若是单纯对肉体的破坏，其保护作用反倒不如寻常的盔甲法宝。”
"But while the needles provide protection for the soul, their effectiveness against physical damage is inferior to ordinary armor artifacts."
“ zhēn bù huǐ 、 rén bù wáng ……”
“针不毁、人不亡……”
"Needles unbroken, person unharmed..."
“ tiān yī cǐ yán dào yě méi yǒu kuā dà 。 zhǐ yào shén hún wán zhěng ， yǐ tā de shí lì ， xiǎng yào bāng zhù zhòng sù ròu shēn ， bù guò yì shì ěr 。”
“天医此言倒也没有夸大。只要神魂完整，以他的实力，想要帮助重塑肉身，不过易事耳。”
"Heavenly Healer's words are not exaggerated. With his strength intact, restoring one’s body would be an easy task if he wanted to assist in such a manner."
“ ér xiǎng yào huǐ miè shén hún ， shǒu xiān yào jiāng jīn zhēn fáng hù céng gěi pò huài diào 。”
“而想要毁灭神魂，首先要将金针防护层给破坏掉。”
"But to destroy the soul, one must first break down this protective layer."
“ shèn zhì ……”
“甚至……”
"And even..."
lǐ fán nǎo hǎi zhōng hū de fú xiàn chū yí gè huà miàn 。
李凡脑海中忽的浮现出一个画面。
A scene suddenly flashed through Li Fan's mind.
zài shòu dào zhì mìng dǎ jī 、 jīn zhēn jí jiāng suì liè qián de chà nà ， jīn guāng téng kōng ér qǐ ， guǒ xié zhe lǐ fán de shén hún 、 fēi huí tiān yī shǒu zhōng 。
在受到致命打击、金针即将碎裂前的刹那，金光腾空而起，裹挟着李凡的神魂、飞回天医手中。
Just before the golden needles were about to shatter from a fatal blow, a burst of golden light lifted off, carrying Li Fan’s soul essence back into Heavenly Healer's hands.
lǐ fán kě yǐ kěn dìng ， duì yú sòng chū de jīn zhēn ， tiān yī jué duì réng rán yǒu zhe yí dìng de zhǎng kòng quán 。
李凡可以肯定，对于送出的金针，天医绝对仍然有着一定的掌控权。
Li Fan was certain that Heavenly Healer still had some control over these needles.
zhè gù rán shì chū yú duì “ tiān fǎ jiè mù qián wéi yī chuán rén ” de zhào fú ， dàn duì lǐ fán ér yán ， què bú shì shén me hǎo shì 。
这固然是出于对“天法界目前唯一传人”的照拂，但对李凡而言，却不是什么好事。
This was undoubtedly due to his care for "the sole successor in the current realm of Heavenly Law," but it wasn't good news for Li Fan.
wò tà zhī cè ， qǐ róng tā rén ān shuì ？
卧榻之侧，岂容他人安睡？
In one's own bed, others cannot sleep undisturbed.
yǐ lǐ fán de xìng gé ， shì jué duì bù kě néng fàng rèn zì jǐ wú fǎ wán quán zhǎng kòng zhī wù bāo guǒ zhe zì jǐ shén hún de 。
以李凡的性格，是绝对不可能放任自己无法完全掌控之物包裹着自己神魂的。
Given Li Fan’s nature, he would never allow something that couldn’t be fully controlled to envelop his soul.
bié de hái hǎo shuō ， rú guǒ shén hún bèi dòng jié cóng ér dǎo zhì wú fǎ hái zhēn ， nà dàng zhēn shì wàn jié bù fù ！
别的还好说，如果神魂被冻结从而导致无法还真，那当真是万劫不复！
If the soul were frozen and unable to practice Truly Real Technique, it would truly be irreversible!
“ yǒu méi yǒu shén me fāng fǎ ， jì néng xiǎng shòu jīn zhēn de fáng hù ， yòu néng què bǎo jué duì de ān quán ne ……”
“有没有什么方法，既能享受金针的防护，又能确保绝对的安全呢……”
"Is there any way to enjoy the protection of the golden needles while ensuring absolute safety..."
wú miàn shí xiàng qián ， lǐ fán kāi shǐ sī cǔn qǐ lái 。
无面石像前，李凡开始思忖起来。
At the faceless stone statue, Li Fan began pondering.
qí shí tā mù qián suǒ néng zhǎng wò de ， néng gòu qiān zhì tiān yī lì liàng de dǐ pái bìng bù duō 。
其实他目前所能掌握的，能够牵制天医力量的底牌并不多。
Actually, he had very few trump cards that could restrain Heavenly Healer's power at his disposal.
ér qiě dōu shì xiē wú fǎ kòng zhì de biàn shù 。
而且都是些无法控制的变数。
And they were all uncontrollable variables—like chaos, hunger, and gray mold spots.
bǐ rú luàn 、 jī 、 huī sè méi bān děng děng 。
比如乱、饥、灰色霉斑等等。
A slight misstep could lead to a world-destroying outcome.
shāo bù liú shén ， jiù shì xuán huáng miè shì 、 tóng guī yú jìn de hòu guǒ 。
稍不留神，就是玄黄灭世、同归于尽的后果。
After much consideration, Li Fan focused on the golden愿力 generated by the faceless stone statue.
sī lái xiǎng qù ， lǐ fán zuì zhōng jiāng mù biāo fàng zài le yóu wú miàn shí xiàng shēng chéng de nà jīn sè yuàn lì zhī shàng 。
思来想去，李凡最终将目标放在了由无面石像生成的那金色愿力之上。
The golden愿力 had been stored in his劫身's core until it was nearly full. Without Li Fan’s control, the愿力 would automatically compress itself when nearing capacity.
jīn sè yuàn lì cǐ qián dōu bèi lǐ fán cún chǔ zài dān tián de jié shēn zhī zhōng ， měi dāng yào cún mǎn de shí hòu ， bù yòng lǐ fán kě yǐ cāo zòng 、 jīn sè yuàn lì jiù huì zì xíng wán chéng yā suō 。
金色愿力此前都被李凡存储在丹田的劫身之中，每当要存满的时候，不用李凡可以操纵、金色愿力就会自行完成压缩。
Thus, despite being vast and powerful, this愿力 still couldn't fill even one劫身.
gù ér ， zhè duàn shí jiān jī zǎn xià lái de jīn sè yuàn lì suī rán yǐ jīng páng bó wú bǐ ， dàn què yī jiù méi néng zhuāng mǎn nǎ pà yī jù jié shēn 。
故而，这段时间积攒下来的金色愿力虽然已经磅礴无比，但却依旧没能装满哪怕一具劫身。
This particular劫身, resembling Li Fan, shone with golden light, exuding a divine aura.
zhǐ shì zhè jù lǐ fán mú yàng de jié shēn kàn shàng qù jīn guāng shǎn yào ， shén shèng fēi fán 。
只是这具李凡模样的劫身看上去金光闪耀，神圣非凡。
The golden愿力 was an existence beyond the current power system Li Fan had encountered. He hadn’t found a way to use it yet; he could only guide it.
jīn sè yuàn lì shì yī zhǒng chāo tuō lǐ fán mù qián suǒ jiē chù lì liàng tǐ xì céng jí de cún zài ， lǐ fán hái méi yǒu zhǎo dào shǐ yòng tā de fāng fǎ 。
金色愿力是一种超脱李凡目前所接触力量体系层级的存在，李凡还没有找到使用它的方法。
"愿力, 愿力..."
wéi yī suǒ néng zuò de zhǐ shì yǐn dǎo ér yǐ 。
唯一所能做的只是引导而已。
"Might I be able to summon its power by focusing on my desires?"
“ yuàn lì ， yuàn lì ……”
“愿力，愿力……”
Li Fan suddenly felt compelled and began trying this out.
“ huì bú huì àn zhào xīn zhōng suǒ xiǎng jiāng qí cuī dòng ， jiù néng diào yòng tā de lì liàng ？”
“会不会按照心中所想将其催动，就能调用它的力量？”
The result was clear: the golden愿力 seemed indifferent to Li Fan’s call, as if they were entirely different species.
lǐ fán hū de xīn zhōng yī dòng ， kāi shǐ cháng shì qǐ lái 。
李凡忽的心中一动，开始尝试起来。
After failing, Li Fan changed his approach. He created another劫身, slowly guiding the愿力 into it while simultaneously animating it to grow into a long rope-like form.
jié guǒ xiǎn ér yì jiàn ， fǎng fú shì wán quán liǎng gè bù tóng de wù zhǒng ， jīn sè yuàn lì duì yú lǐ fán de hū huàn gēn běn wú dòng yú zhōng 。
结果显而易见，仿佛是完全两个不同的物种，金色愿力对于李凡的呼唤跟本无动于衷。
Like a pipeline, this rope carried the愿力.
cháng shì wú guǒ zhī hòu ， lǐ fán wú nài zhǐ dé gǎi biàn le fāng shì 。
尝试无果之后，李凡无奈只得改变了方式。
As this pipeline encircled and intertwined with the golden needles protecting Li Fan’s soul, it began weaving an outer garment around them.
yòu chuàng zào le yī jù jié shēn ， jiāng jīn sè yuàn lì huǎn màn yǐn dǎo zhì qí nèi 。 yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， cuī dòng jié shēn biàn huà chéng zhǎng zhǎng de shéng suǒ mú yàng 。
又创造了一具劫身，将金色愿力缓慢引导至其内。与此同时，催动劫身变化成长长的绳索模样。
Throughout this process, Li Fan was extremely cautious.
rú tóng yī gēn guǎn dào ， zhuāng zài zhe màn màn de jīn sè yuàn lì 。
如同一根管道，装载着慢慢的金色愿力。
Both the golden needles from Heavenly Healer and the愿力 were forces he couldn’t fully grasp. By guiding these two to balance each other, he felt a sense of security.
suí zhe zhè gēn guǎn dào wéi rào zhe bāo guǒ zhe lǐ fán shén hún de jīn zhēn fáng hù ， màn màn biān zhī qǐ yī jiàn wài yī qǐ lái 。
随着这根管道围绕着包裹着李凡神魂的金针防护，慢慢编织起一件外衣起来。
Indeed, doing so externally was extremely dangerous; any misstep could result in the destruction of his soul.
zhěng gè guò chéng ， lǐ fán yì cháng xiǎo xīn jǐn shèn 。
整个过程，李凡异常小心谨慎。
But with Truly Real Technique at hand, Li Fan still had the right to boldly try!
wú lùn shì tiān yī jīn zhēn ， hái shì jīn sè yuàn lì ， dōu shì tā mù qián wú fǎ zhǎng wò de lì liàng 。
无论是天医金针，还是金色愿力，都是他目前无法掌握的力量。
"If anything changes, they will naturally ignore me as an insignificant ant. This is their nature."
wéi yǒu yǐn dǎo ， xíng chéng cǐ èr zhě hù xiāng zhì yuē ， cái néng ràng tā gǎn dào xiē xǔ de ān xīn 。
唯有引导，形成此二者互相制约，才能让他感到些许的安心。
"Actually, it's safer than facing them individually."
chéng rán ， zài zì jǐ de shén hún zhī wài rú cǐ zuò shì jí qí wēi xiǎn de 。
诚然，在自己的神魂之外如此做是极其危险的。
"This is what balance means."
shāo yǒu bù shèn ， jiù shì shén hún jù miè de xià chǎng 。
稍有不慎，就是神魂俱灭的下场。
Li Fan nodded contentedly as he observed his creation—a劫身 filled with愿力, intertwined with the golden needles.
dàn yǒu hái zhēn zài ， lǐ fán hái shì yǒu zī gé qù dà dǎn cháng shì yī fān de ！
但有还真在，李凡还是有资格去大胆尝试一番的！
If Heavenly Healer’s needles were to erupt, they would first trigger the愿力.
“ ruò shì zhēn yǒu biàn ， tā men èr zhě dìng rán shì shǒu xiān hù xiāng kàn dào bǐ cǐ zhè ge páng rán dà wù 。 ér xià yì shí de jiāng wǒ zhè ge lóu yǐ hū lüè 。 zhè shì tiān xìng shǐ rán 。”
“若事真有变，它们二者定然是首先互相看到彼此这个庞然大物。而下意识的将我这个蝼蚁忽略。这是天性使然。”
And vice versa.
“ fǎn dào shì bǐ wǒ dān dú miàn duì tā men zhōng de rèn hé yí gè dōu yào ān quán xiē 。”
“反倒是比我单独面对他们中的任何一个都要安全些。”
Should Li Fan be subjected to a fatal blow from the outside, the attacker would face dual retaliation from both the needles and the愿力.
“ cǐ suǒ wèi zhì héng zhī dào 。”
“此所谓制衡之道。”
In an inappropriate analogy, Li Fan was currently like wearing two interconnected bombs. Any action that harmed him could trigger their explosion.
lǐ fán kàn zhuó zhuāng mǎn jīn sè yuàn lì 、 wǎn ruò jīn sè shéng xiàn de jié shēn ， yǔ jīn zhēn fáng hù bǐ cǐ jiāo zhī zài yì qǐ ， bù yóu mǎn yì de diǎn le diǎn tóu 。
李凡看着装满金色愿力、宛若金色绳线的劫身，与金针防护彼此交织在一起，不由满意的点了点头。
Li Fan believed that even the Immortal Supreme would not fare well under such simultaneous attacks!
tiān yī jīn zhēn rú guǒ bào fā ， bì rán huì shǒu xiān chù dòng jīn sè yuàn lì 。
天医金针如果爆发，必然会首先触动金色愿力。
Even in critical moments, he could actively detonate these bombs to achieve unexpected results!
fǎn zhī yì rán 。
反之亦然。
"Adapting to circumstances and maneuvering skillfully—this is who I am..."
ér lǐ fán ruò shì shòu dào wài jiè zhì mìng dǎ jī ， dǎ jī zhě gèng shì huì zāo dào tiān yī jīn zhēn gēn jīn sè yuàn lì de shuāng chóng fǎn jī 。
而李凡若是受到外界致命打击，打击者更是会遭到天医金针跟金色愿力的双重反击。
After achieving this balance, Li Fan quietly admired his creation, feeling a bit smug.
yòng bù qià dàng de bǐ fāng shuō ， lǐ fán mù qián jiù xiāng dāng yú zài shēn shàng bǎng le liǎng gè chuàn lián de zhà dàn 。
用不恰当的比方说，李凡目前就相当于在身上绑了两个串联的炸弹。
But quickly, he regained his composure.
rèn hé néng gòu duì lǐ fán zào chéng shāng hài de xíng wéi ， dōu néng jiāng zhà dàn chè dǐ yǐn bào 。
任何能够对李凡造成伤害的行为，都能将炸弹彻底引爆。
"This is merely a temporary expedient. If I can thoroughly understand Heavenly Healer’s needles and develop my own soul protection..."
lǐ fán xiāng xìn ， nǎ pà shì cháng shēng tiān zūn ， bèi zhè liǎng zhǒng lì liàng tóng shí gōng jī ， yě jué jì bú huì hǎo shòu ！
李凡相信，哪怕是长生天尊，被这两种力量同时攻击，也决计不会好受！
"Since Heavenly Healer can do it, there's no reason why I can't."
shèn zhì zài bì yào shí kè ， lǐ fán hái kě yǐ zhǔ dòng yǐn bào zhè liǎng kē zhà dàn ， cóng ér dá dào yì xiǎng bù dào de xiào guǒ ！
甚至在必要时刻，李凡还可以主动引爆这两颗炸弹，从而达到意想不到的效果！
Li Fan carefully felt the energy attributes of the golden needles outside his soul, combining them with the content from "Heavenly Healer's Immortal Scripture" and "Record of Repairing Heaven," pondering their usage.
“ yīn shì lì dǎo ， zòng héng bǎi hé 。 fāng xiǎn wǒ zhī běn sè ……”
“因势利导，纵横捭阖。方显我之本色……”
After an indeterminate amount of time, Li Fan was awakened by a vision in his mind.
dāng èr zhě de píng héng zuì zhōng dá chéng zhī hòu ， lǐ fán jìng jìng xīn shǎng zhe zì jǐ de jié zuò ， xīn zhōng bù miǎn yǒu xiē dé yì 。
当二者的平衡最终达成之后，李凡静静欣赏着自己的杰作，心中不免有些得意。
It turned out that he had finally made progress on the task he assigned to the followers of Red Dust Compassionate Immortal—finding someone who could reconstruct a deceased immortal’s appearance from their skull.
bù guò tā hěn kuài jiù qīng xǐng xià lái 。
不过他很快就清醒下来。
Initially, Li Fan thought it would be simple, but in reality, there were no other immortals with this need in the vast Heavenly Law realm, apart from him.
“ cǐ bù guò shì pò bù dé yǐ de quán yí zhī jì bà le ， rú guǒ néng yán jiū tòu chè tiān yī jīn zhēn ， xíng chéng shǔ yú zì jǐ de shén hún fáng hù ……”
“此不过是迫不得已的权宜之计罢了，如果能研究透彻天医金针，形成属于自己的神魂防护……”
Without practical use, no immortal would research such technology. It was only after he offered a reward that others attempted to do so.
“ jì rán tiān yī néng zuò dào zhè yì diǎn ， wǒ méi yǒu lǐ yóu zuò bú dào 。”
“既然天医能做到这一点，我没有理由做不到。”
"Communism State, Luo Su Zhen."
lǐ fán xì xì gǎn shòu zhe shén hún zhī wài ， tiān yī jīn zhēn de néng liàng shǔ xìng ， jié hé 《 tiān yī xiān jīng 》 yǐ jí 《 bǔ tiān lù 》 zhōng de nèi róng ， àn zì chuǎi mó zhe 。
李凡细细感受着神魂之外，天医金针的能量属性，结合《天医仙经》以及《补天录》中的内容，暗自揣摩着。
After gathering information on his target immortal, Li Fan decided to personally handle this matter due to the critical importance of Truly Real Technique.
rú cǐ ， bù zhī guò le duō jiǔ 。
如此，不知过了多久。
Forming a ghostly figure, he quickly arrived at Luo Su Zhen’s cave dwelling.
lǐ fán bèi nǎo hǎi zhōng de yī fú huà miàn suǒ jīng xǐng 。
李凡被脑海中的一幅画面所惊醒。
Like Elder Yin and others, Luo Su Zhen also preferred solitude.
yuán lái shì zhī qián tā ràng hóng chén cí bēi xiān de xìn tú men ， qù xún zhǎo néng gòu gēn jù lú gǔ fù yuán xiū shì shēng qián yàng mào zhě de rèn wù ， zhōng yú yǒu méi mù le 。
原来是之前他让红尘慈悲仙的信徒们，去寻找能够根据颅骨复原修士生前样貌者的任务，终于有眉目了。
(End of Chapter)
Just like treating a specific ailment, the golden needles given by Heavenly Healer underwent a change in shape after making contact with Li Fan's soul essence.
A protective layer formed around the outer perimeter of the needles, conforming to the shape of Li Fan’s soul essence.
