Above the summit, the whitefogsurges, has probably piece of immortal qito fill the air.
山巅之上,白色的云雾涌动,像是有着一片仙气在弥漫。Looking into the distance, surging forward with great momentum, mountain rangerise and fall.
放眼望去,波澜壮阔,山脉起伏。ButGu Xian'eractuallyhas no interest in appreciateall these.
但顾仙儿却无心欣赏这一切。At this momentsheis standinghere, on the smallface of white enamelexquisiteflawless, the browis tight, intertwinedonegroupon the difference.
此刻她正站立在这里,白瓷般细腻无瑕的小脸上,眉头紧蹙,就差纠结成一团了。Thisfacial expression, comes acrosswhatverypuzzledmatterobviously, makingherbe hardto decidesuddenly.
这副神情,显然是遇到什么很纠结的事情,让她一时间难以决定下来。„Da Hong, yousaid that Gu ChanggeandDemonic Art Inheritorfight, are seriously injuredthismatter, istrue or false? If, yousaid that Ido wantto visithim?”
“大红,你说顾长歌和魔功传承者交手,受了重伤这件事,到底是真的还是假的?如果是真的,你说我要不要去看一看他?”Gu Xian'eris holding the both legs, supports the head above, jarsoundWengQi, is inquiringBig Red Bird of oneselfshoulder.顾仙儿抱着双腿,把脑袋撑在上面,瓮声翁气的,在询问自己肩头的大红鸟。Big Red Birdrolled the eyes.大红鸟翻了个白眼。„ThismatteryouaskedImakereally”facial expression.
一副“这种事情你问我作甚”的神情。Gu Xian'eralsoknows that thismatter, howpossiblyasked the onebird.顾仙儿也知道这种事情,怎么可能问一只鸟儿。Butsheisbecausein the heartis unsure, cannot make up mind.
但她就是因为心中没谱,拿不定主意。Shealsoheardtracked downDemonic Art InheritoraboutGu Changgethis period of time, andwithitsnews of fight.
她也听到了这段时间关于顾长歌追寻魔功传承者,并和其交手的消息。From the beginning, shedoes not believe.
一开始,她是不怎么信的。
The Gu Changgestrength, somemulti-frightening, she is also very clear.顾长歌的实力,到底有多恐怖,她也很清楚。
Can younger generationbesidesher, whocontend withGu Changge?年轻一辈除了她以外,谁能抗衡顾长歌?Naturallythisshe, refers tolaterher.
当然这个她,指的是以后的她。At leastpresentyounger generation, looks likeinGu Xian'er, no onecanbe the Gu Changgeopponent.
至少现在的年轻一辈,在顾仙儿看来,就没有人会是顾长歌的对手。Person but who...... this timeandGu Changgefight, isin the hearsaylosing entirelythis worldandimmeasurably deepDemonic Art Inheritor.
可是……这一次和顾长歌交手的人,是传闻之中丧尽人寰、深不可测的魔功传承者。
The fearfulness of Demonic Art Inheritor, shedoes not haveto seetruly, buthas also heardmanynews.魔功传承者的可怕,她没有真正见过,但是也听闻过不少消息。Undersimultaneously of variousGreat Dao Orthodoxyandinfluencetracks down, canescapeunexpectedlysafe and sound, finallyisvanishesto go into seclusion, does not have the whereabouts.
在各大道统和势力的齐齐追寻之下,竟然也能安然无恙地逃跑,最后更是消失匿迹,毫无行踪。Suchonepowerfulexist(ence), howno oneknowsitsstrength.
这样一位强大的存在,没有人知道其实力到底如何。Gu Changgewill be injuredin the Demonic Art Inheritorhand, is not the not possiblematter.顾长歌会在魔功传承者手中受伤,也并不是什么不可能的事情。Shelooks atGu Changgewas too invincible......
她把顾长歌看的太无敌了……Sometimes, Gu Changge is also like the average person, will be injured, and evenperishes.
有时候,顾长歌也和普通人一样,是会受伤,乃至殒命的。Thereforeshewas a little worried.
所以她有点担心。In the hearsay, Gu Changgehas been injuredveryheavily, even the sourceharms.
传闻之中,顾长歌已经受伤很重,甚至本源有损。
The windslightlyis that big appearance a pointcanblowto run.
风稍微大一点就能吹跑的样子。At that timethismade the Gu Xian'erheadignorant , the firstresponsewantsto laugh, Gu Changgesuffered her bladeobviously after at that time, does not have anyresponseandweak.
当时这让顾仙儿脑袋都懵了下,第一反应就是想发笑,明明当时顾长歌挨了她一刀之后,都没有任何反应和虚弱的。FacingDemonic Art Inheritor, howhepossiblyreceives such heavywound.
面对魔功传承者,他怎么可能受这么重的伤。Butafterwardmorethinks,shemorethought the matteris not quite right.
但后来越想,她就越觉得事情不太对劲。By the Gu Changgecharacterandability , he ifreallycankilledDemonic Art Inheritor, makehimrun away?
以顾长歌的性格和能耐,他如果真的能击杀魔功传承者的话,会让其跑掉吗?Thereforeonlypossiblyis, thenGu Changge was like Demonic Art Inheritor, actuallyhad lost the battle efficiency.
所以唯一的可能就是,当时的顾长歌和魔功传承者一样,其实已经丧失了战斗力。Two peoplethengive up.
两人这才作罢。
The Gu Changgewound, will not be perhaps relaxed.顾长歌的伤,恐怕不会轻松。Thinks that thismatter, Gu Xian'erhas not sought for the thoughts of chance.
想到这件事,顾仙儿都没有找寻机缘的心思了。These days, herbreakthroughprogresses by leaps and bounds, not onlywent backto pickeightSaintbroadleaf plants, latermet a Nirvanafruit.
这段时间,她的突破可谓是突飞猛进,不仅回去摘了八圣蕉,随后更是遇到了一枚涅槃果。Slaughters the fightwithvariousAncient ImmortalclanHeaven's Chosen.
和仙古各族天骄厮杀战斗。cultivation basesmoothbroke through toConferred Lord Realmlate stage, compared withenteringAncient Immortal Continenttime, wantspowerfulseveral times.修为顺利突破到了封侯境后期,比进入仙古大陆的时候,都要强大数倍。Shehas the fullassurance, ifwill meetGu Changgenext timeagain, cansupporthispalmabsolutely.
她有十足把握,如果下次再遇到顾长歌,绝对能撑过他的一掌了。„Iam not worried abouthiswound, butfearedhedied, whomlaterIaskto revenge.”
“我可不是担心他的伤,而是怕他就这么死了,以后我找谁报仇去。”At this time, Gu Xian'erconvincedoneselffinally.
这时,顾仙儿终于说服了自己。Shegaveoneselfto think the reason.
她给自己想好了理由。So as to avoidGu Changgedoes not spare a glancetoherwhen the time comes, is not willingto acceptherseeing.
免得到时候顾长歌又对她不屑一顾,不愿接受她的看望。Naturallylike thisshealsohas a excusewell, so as to avoidalsoin the facecannot hangwhen the time comes.
当然这样她也好有个借口,也免得到时候面子上挂不住。She can also look at the Gu Changgewoundhow.
她也可以去看一下顾长歌到底伤的怎么样。
Does Demonic Art Inheritor, reallyhavein the hearsay is so fearful?魔功传承者,真的有传闻之中那么可怕吗?„Happen tocouple days agoobtainedonetherapydivine medicine, even ifrescuesmythank-you gifttoGu Changgemake a move. At that timebulliedmyenmitynot to askhimto do accounts, ismybroadmindedresult.”
“正好前几天得到了一株疗伤神药,就算是给顾长歌出手救我的谢礼。当时欺负我的仇还没找他算账,已经是我宽宏大量的结果了。”Talking to oneself, Gu Xian'eris changing toonespirit rainbowlater, is controllingmagical artifact, shoots up to the sky.
如此自语着,顾仙儿随后化作一道神虹,驾驭着法器,冲天而起。Sheleftthisplacefast.
她快速离开了此地。
......
……WhenAncient Immortal Continentmajorethnic groupas well asoutside worldcultivatorbecause ofDemonic Art Inheritor, butmakesnoisily.
在仙古大陆各大族群以及外界修士都因为魔功传承者而闹得沸沸扬扬的时候。Gu Changgeis leading a follower, looked for a vestigecasually, reputation it is said that the traininglived.顾长歌则带领着一众追随者,随便找了片遗迹,美名其曰修养生息。Butsecretly, hethroughvariousmethods, is promotingoutside worldcultivator and hatreds of variousAncient Immortalclans.
但暗地里,他还是在通过各种手段,在推动着外界修士和仙古各族的仇恨。Whenthishatredvalueachieves the apex, is the besttime that two sidesDao Orthodoxybig shotare out.
当这个仇恨值达到顶点的时候,也就是两边道统的大人物们下场的最好时机。Gu Changgedid not mindstirsthoroughlymuddilythisgroup of water.顾长歌是不介意把这团水给彻底搅浑的。Buthethis period of time, faded out the field of vision of peoplegradually.
而他这段时间,也渐渐淡出了众人的视野。
The Ancient Immortallife that only thenwantsto inquirehisnews, close tothisregion, without a trace that thenvanishes.
只有一些想要打探他消息的仙古生灵,靠近这片区域,然后消失的无影无踪。Whilethis period of time, Gu Changgefiddled withmanygoodthingsfromSystem Shopinactually.
趁着这段时间,顾长歌倒是又自系统商城里又捣鼓了不少好东西。OnlyisBone of Transcendence, madethree.
光是超脱骨,就又弄了三块。Includinganother sidearmandfootbone, together the phalanx of right hand.
包括另一边的手骨、脚骨,还有一块右手的一根指骨。Inthisphalanx, Gu Changgerefining up into the seventh metalruleas well asEndless Immortal Artattacks the Sword Daorule.
在这块指骨内,顾长歌炼入了庚金规则以及无终仙决之中的攻伐剑道规则。Thesetwopinnacleattributeattackingrules, superimposedinone, naturallycanplay the majorrole.
这两种极致属性的攻伐规则,叠加在了一起,自然能发挥更大的作用。Thereforethisphalanx, was built up a supremeswordbonebyGu Changgefinally.
所以这块指骨,最后被顾长歌炼成了一块无上剑骨。
The idea of Gu Changge is also very simple.顾长歌的想法也很简单。Ledto finish up.
帅就完事了。
When facingenemy, the lightswordrefers , the peerlessswordglowfalls, the enemybeheadstwoto breakinstantaneously.
面对敌人时,轻飘飘一记剑指,绝世剑芒落下,敌人瞬间枭首两断。In addition, hewas convenientHeavenly Immortal Dao Codexcultivation baseupgraded a level, onhad arrived atFalse God Realmmiddle stageoutwardly.
除此之外,他还顺手把道天仙典的修为提升了个层次,明面上已经到了虚神境中期。Butsecretly, heisunscrupulous, hunts and killsexpert that leaves behindbyImmortal Devouring Demonic Artcrazily.
而暗地里,他更是肆无忌惮,以吞仙魔功疯狂猎杀落单的强者。Suddenly, the Demonic Art Inheritortrailreappears, initiatesregionalstartled, manylivesandcultivatorthought that oneselfis in imminent danger.
一时间,魔功传承者的踪迹再现,引发各地惊慌,诸多生灵和修士都觉得自己岌岌可危起来。NaturallyGu Changgeonlywantsto indicateregarding this, theirthink too much.
当然顾长歌对此只想表示,他们想太多了。Even ifthiscrowd of younglivesappearbeforehim, offers the sourceon own initiative, healsonotnecessarilylooks.
就算这群年轻生灵出现在他面前,主动把本源献上,他还不一定看的起。Nowadaysonly hasHeavenly God Realm, and evenGod King Realmaboveexist(ence), had the functionto the cultivation basepromotion of Gu Changge.
现如今只有天神境,乃至神王境以上的存在,才对顾长歌的修为提升有作用了。morearrives atbehind, the sourceessence that needsishuge.
越到后面,所需要的本源精华越是庞大。Only if very powerfulphysiqueor the bloodlines.
除非是很强大的体质或者血脉。These days, matter that Gu Changgeis also beginningto considerto draw in a net.
这一段时间,顾长歌也在着手考虑收网的事情。HebyBridal Clothes Immortal Art, speciallyis the Black Skyhawkethnic group the arrangedbig net, shoulddraw.
他以嫁衣仙决,专门为黑天鹰族群所布下的大网,也该收拢了。Inhissensation, the entireBlack Skyhawkethnic group, becomes a piece of spider web, he only need read, canletcompose all lives of thispiece of spider web, instantaneousTrue Spiritannihilation.
他的感知中,整个黑天鹰族群,都成为一片蛛网,他只需一念,便可让组成这片蛛网的所有生灵,瞬间真灵湮灭。Thiswasbe more fearful than slave seal.
这可是要比奴印可怕多了。In an instant, the timepasses.
转眼间,时间流逝。Afterseveraldays.
数天过后。„Originally is also only the oldturtle......”
“原来还就是只老龟……”„Doingquite a whilemealsothinks that isBlack Tortoise.”
“搞半天我还以为是玄武。”BroadancientDiannei, Gu Changgelooknature, butactuallysomewhatshut outis saying.
一座恢宏的古殿内,顾长歌神色自然,但却有些嫌弃地说着。Inhishandis raisingonewhite jadependant, abovedenseradianceappears, presents the appearance of oneoldturtle.
他手中提着一只白玉吊坠,上面氤氲光华浮现,出现一只老龟的模样来。Thisoldturtleis all over the body pure white, probably the jade is the same, is passingglitteringly and translucent carving, eventhere is a strangefragrance.
这只老龟通体洁白,像是玉石一样,透着晶莹剔透,甚至有种奇异的芳香。Thisfragrantothersaredo not smell.
这种芳香别人是闻不到的。ButasImmortal Devouring Demonic ArtsuccessorGu Changge, can actually the sensation, becausethisaura...... is the divine soulfragrance.
但身为吞仙魔功传人的顾长歌,却能够感知到,因为这气息……乃是神魂的芳香。divine soul of thisoldturtle, perhapsis not the turtle, butissomespecialimmortal medicine.
这只老龟的神魂,或许不是乌龟,而是某种特殊的仙药。„Gu Changge, gives up any idea of the shameold man, mustkill to hack, entirely according to your convenience.”
“顾长歌,休想羞辱老夫,要杀要剐,悉听尊便。”„Said that fears the character, the old manfrombrokenTrue Spirit!”
“说一个怕字,老夫自碎真灵!”Appears the oldturtleabovependant, at this timebut actuallyalsounyielding.
浮现于吊坠之上的老龟,这个时候倒也硬气。Itwitnessed the Gu Changgesecret.
它亲眼目睹了顾长歌的秘密。According to the Gu Changgepersonality, is decidedly impossibleto let offit.
按照顾长歌的性情来说,是断然不可能放过它的。At this time, wantsthroughthreatthreatand othermethods, compellingitto say the secretaboutAncient Heavenly Venerate Samsaramost likely.
这个时候,十之八九是想通过威胁恐吓等手段,逼它说出一些关于轮回古天尊的隐秘来。Afterward, forcesitto submit to variousmethodsagain.
随后,再以各种手段逼迫它臣服。Regardingall these, is very thorough, the seenmatter that the oldturtlethinkswere many, how could it not beitknows the Gu Changgemethod.
对于这一切,老龟想的很透彻,见的事情多了,它又岂不知顾长歌的手段。Thereforeunyielding of veryoldturtleperformance.
所以老龟表现的很硬气。In a pair of mung beaneye, is the facial expression that awe-inspiring, will not submit.
一对绿豆般的眼睛里,是正气凛然、不会屈服的神情。Althoughin the Ye Lingcharacterhasmanyslight defects, butheafter all is a kindheartedgeneration.
虽然叶凌性格上有诸多瑕疵,但他终归是个良善之辈。ButGu Changgesuchevil person, demonic qiis dreadful, howcanmakeitsubmit to? When the time comeshelps a tyrant do evil, fallingworldcommon peoplefornon-righteousness.
而顾长歌这样的恶人,魔气滔天,怎能让它臣服?到时候助纣为虐,陷天下苍生为不义。Thisanditssay/wayrefutes.
这和它的道相驳。IffacingGu ChanggesuchGreat Demonhead, wholeheartedlyonlywantsto drag out an ignoble existenceto breathe the last breath of life, thenon this dayunderprinciple of righteousness, but also is protectedbywhom?
如果面对顾长歌这样的大魔头,一心只想偷生残喘,那么这天下大义,还由谁来守护?„Whatshamesyou, said that you are a old tortoiseshameyou?”
“什么叫羞辱你,说你是只老乌龟羞辱你吗?”hearing this, Gu Changgeis smilinglightly, is actually vice-looks at the facial expression of idiot.闻言,顾长歌淡淡笑着,却是副看白痴的神情。„Saidlivewas long, whateven was oneselfforgets?”
“还是说活的久了,连自己是什么都忘了?”Gu Changgethinksdraws the hatred the skill, has selectedfully, does the oneold tortoise, whatinstallbeforehim?顾长歌自认为拉仇恨的技能,是已经点满了的,一只老乌龟,在他面前装什么?„Gu Changge, yougo too farsimply......”
“顾长歌,你简直欺人太甚……”Sure enough, Gu Changgethese words, made the oldturtlecomplexionazuredirectly, could not beardrinks the rebuttalto saygreatly.
果不其然,顾长歌这句话,直接让老龟面色都青了,忍不住大喝反驳道。Althoughitcalled the oldturtle, butdoes not mean that it was really the oneturtle.
它虽然叫老龟,可并不意味着它真的是一只乌龟。ButisAncient Heavenly Venerate Samsarafornamethat's all that ittakes.
只不过是轮回古天尊为它所取的名字罢了。Turtle?
乌龟?Thiswasitspain spot, Ye Lingbefore death, does not dareto sayitwiththis mattercompletely.
这完全就是它的痛点,叶凌生前,都不敢拿此事说它的。Nowbutbe relentlessis exposedbyGu Changge.
可是现在被顾长歌毫不留情地揭露出来。
If notcannotrevolt, itmustgo all outwithGu Changgeat this timesimply.
如果不是不能反抗,它这个时候简直要和顾长歌拼命。„Goes too far? Can'ttrade the freshpointwords and expressions?”
“欺人太甚?都不能换个新鲜点的词语吗?”Gu Changgeshakes the head, at willsaying.顾长歌摇摇头,随意说着。In the pupillight, seems the black and whitetwocolorsto past, is faintsometimes the lighttrace, appearsinvoid.
眸光之中,似有黑白二色在流转,隐隐间有时光痕迹,出现在虚空之中。„Samsararule......”
“轮回规则……”
The oldturtlecannot bearwith amazement.
老龟忍不住骇然。Itsdivine soulbecameeven moreblurred, mustchange to the light smokeunderthispupillightsimplyprobably.
它的神魂变得越发模糊了,简直像是要在这道眸光下化作青烟。Has not thoughtthenshortSamsara Strength that severaldays, Gu Changgecontrols, far surpassYe Linghas not knownwas far.
没想到这才短短的几天,顾长歌所掌控的轮回力量,已经远超叶凌不知道多远了。Thisfellowtoofrightening......, frighteningthisword, had not been hardto describeitsimplyto the feeling of Gu Changge.
这家伙简直太恐怖了……不,恐怖这个词,已经难以形容它对顾长歌的感觉了。„Saidyourorigin, ifIwere interested, perhapswill makeyoulive.”
“说出你的来历吧,如果我感兴趣的话,说不定会让你活下来。”Afterward, Gu Changgesays.
随后,顾长歌开口说道。These dayswasidles, thereforehad the matter of time disposalthisoldturtle.
这段时间算是闲下来了,所以才有时间处理这老龟的事情。AsYe Linggrandfatherexist(ence), justitsrole, does not have the grandfather is so bigalong.
身为叶凌随身老爷爷般的存在,只不过它的作用,并没有老爷爷那么大。Most can only can be the Son of Destinyguide.
最多只能算得上气运之子的引路人。„Yougave up any idea of! Gu Changge, the old manwill not submit to you, helping a tyrant do evil......”
“你休想!顾长歌,老夫是不会臣服于你,助纣为虐的……”HearsGu Changgethissaying, the oldturtle an understanding clearlyfacial expression, sneersto sayimmediately.
听到顾长歌这话,老龟顿时一副了然的神情,冷笑说道。Ithad concluded that Gu Changgekeepsitto haveotherplans.
它已经料定顾长歌留着它有其余打算。After allithas followed the Ancient Heavenly Venerate Samsaralife, knowsmanyAncient Immortalsecrets.
毕竟它可是追随过轮回古天尊的生灵,知晓很多仙古隐秘。IfGu Changgeis not stupid, knows,keptitto compareto killitsfunctionto be bigger.顾长歌如果不蠢,就会知道,留着它比杀了它的作用更大。„Thisissue, Ido not want to say that actuallysecond, youthinkoneselfwas too important.”
“这个问题,我其实不想说第二遍了,你把自己想的太重要了。”hearing this, Gu Changgelaughs atone.闻言,顾长歌嗤笑一声。Thisold tortoise, but also was really is seriousitsoneself? Reallythinks that oneselfwill play a cardaccording tocliche.
这老乌龟,还真是太把它自己当回事了?真是以为自己会按套路出牌。Buzz!
嗡!Liftsin the handsblack-coloredGreat Daoruneto appear intermittently, changes toGreat Dao Precious Vase.
抬手间乌黑色的大道符文隐现,化作一口大道宝瓶。
Of thundering!
轰鸣的一声!Void , the bit by bitblacklightlets fall, directlyoldturtlecovering.
虚空之中,一丝一缕的乌光垂落,直接把老龟给笼罩。„......”
“啊……”Thisflash, itmade the sound of pitiful yell, the strangeness of Great Dao Precious Vase, lies in thoroughdivine soul, is hardto resist.
这一瞬间,它就发出了惨叫的声音,大道宝瓶的诡异,在于深入神魂之中,难以抵御。Gu Changgehas no interest inknowingAncient Heavenly Venerate Samsaramanysecretsfrom the start.顾长歌压根没兴趣知道轮回古天尊的诸多隐秘。Heis interested, butthisoldturtlemakeshimfeel the attractivefragrance.
他感兴趣的,只是这老龟让他觉得诱人的芳香。Excellentdivine soultaste.
久违的绝佳神魂滋味。Previousbody possessionrebirthGod Kingdivine soul, isthistype of aura, Gu Changgeguessed that thiscontaminates the destinyreason.
上一个夺舍重生的神王神魂,也是这种气息,顾长歌猜测这是沾染上了气运的原因。Butitdid not say that is also all right.
只不过它不说,那也就没事。Thismatter, immaterial.
这种事情,无关紧要。„Gu Changgeyoureallymustkillme......”oldturtleto send out the pitiful yell, cannotbelievesimply,Gu Changgereallyplannedstartsunexpectedly.
“顾长歌你真要杀我……”老龟发出惨叫,简直不敢相信,顾长歌竟然真的打算对它下手。„Refuses to be convinced until one is faced with grim reality.”
“不见棺材不落泪。”Gu Changgeis narrowing the eye.顾长歌微眯着眼睛。Has not been forgiving.
没有丝毫留情。InGreat Dao Precious Vase, transmitsfrightening the strength of swallowing, during the oldturtledespairs, changes to the bigpieceblack-coloredrune, submergesit.大道宝瓶之中,传来恐怖的吞噬之力,在老龟绝望之中,化作大片的乌黑色符文,将其淹没。„Originallyalso is really immortal medicine, butwas divided intothree, itis.”
“原来还真是一株仙药,只不过被人分成了三株,它是其中一株。”
The hugepropertyfloodsinall the limbs and bones, probably a vastturbulentgalaxynature.
庞大的药性充斥在四肢百骸,像是一片浩瀚汹涌的星河质。Immortalintentis turbulent, letsin the palace, suddenlyimitateslikeImmortal Realm.
仙意汹涌,让殿宇之中,一时间仿如仙境。Is goodbecause ofeachcell of Gu Changge, seemedappeared a paintblacktreasured vase.
好在顾长歌的每一个细胞,都好似浮现了一尊漆黑色宝瓶。
The entire60 trillioncells the tremblingcry, is absorbingthisboundlessefficacy.
整整六十万亿细胞都在颤鸣,将这股磅礴药力吸收进去。Simultaneouslysomenewsappearin the mind, thisletsGu Changgebut actuallysomesuddenly.
同时一些讯息出现在脑海,这让顾长歌倒有些恍然。Happen tothis period of timeaccumulationalsoarrived at a peak, hisverynaturalbroke through toGod King Realmpeak.
正好这段时间的积累也到了一个巅峰,他很自然地突破到了神王境巅峰。FromQuasi-Saint Realm, onlymissestake the final step.
距离准圣境,只差临门一脚。
