Shang Ke woke up from his pleasure state as the restrictions outside seem to have been touched. He let out his divine sense to check and saw a dozen of black cloud shape things dropping from the sky and slamming into his restrictions, then turning into smoke before slowly condensing again.
那是什么东西？正在疑惑间，突然感觉被深深顶了一下。尚可回神，重新将注意力转移到眼前的男人身上。他似乎对自己的分神感到不满，加快了真元的运转，一股浮力将他身体托起又放下，如置身波涛之中，上下起伏。
What is that? In his confusion, Shang Ke suddenly felt he was deeply penetrated. Coming back to his senses, he once again shifted his attention to the man before him. He seems to be unhappy with Shang Ke not giving him his full attention and sped up the rotation of his true essence. A wave of power caused his body to rise and fall like there were waves crashing within.
尚可衣衫不整，香肩半露，松散的下摆披盖在下身密合处，只有两条腿从衣摆下伸出，缠绕在男人粗壮有力的腰身上。修行本该心无杂念，抱守空灵，但他们的双修，最后总是免不了一番深入浅出的缠绵，而且两人体质非凡，每次都十分持久，最短两天，最长一次足有半月。在真元交替中入定，又在欲动之际苏醒，动静之间，张弛有度，浑然一体。
Shang Ke’s clothes were messy with half of his shoulder being revealed. The loose robe covered his intimate place while his long legs were stretch out in full view as they were tangled around the man’s sturdy waist.
“阎戮，收功吧？”尚可直起上身，低头在阎戮唇上轻轻舔咬。
“Yan Lu, let’s finish this alright?” Shang Ke straighten his upper body and lowered his head to gently peck Yan Lu’s lips.
阎戮用力将他往下一压，重重吻住他，真气在唇齿间流转，没有一丝外泄。
Yan Lu pressed him down and landed kiss after kiss on him, the true essence passed from his lips to Shang Ke’s and did not leak out.
尚可双眼半垂，长长的睫毛轻柔地扫过他的眉眼，意识逐渐迷离，再次沉入这场香艳的旅程。
Shang Ke’s eyes were half-lidded, his long eyelashes gently sweeping by his brows. His consciousness gradually blurred and he once more sank into this erotic trip.
正在两人“潜心”修炼之际，外界却已经乱成了一片。
While the two were “concentrating” on cultivation, the world outside had already turned into one of chaos.
尚可之前在禁制外发现的黑色云团，乃是来自魔界的魔云。魔云对修真者的危害并不大，但它却可以侵入普通人的身体，吸取他们的精元，不断壮大、传播。
The block round clouds that Shang Ke discovered outside his restrictions before were devil clouds from the devil realm. The damage devil clouds do to cultivators were not high, but they can invade into a normal person’s body and absorb their essence energy and grow and propagate.
然而，魔云的涌现不过是魔界通道被打开的前奏，在修真界的上空，不知是何原因，突然出现了一条空间裂缝，无数魔云从裂缝中飞出，如流星雨般倾泻而下。
However, the emergence of a large number of devil clouds was the prelude to the the opening of the devil realm. In the sky of the cultivator realm, a large cracked appeared of unknown causes. Countless devil clouds flew out from the crack like a torrent of meteor shower.
尚可发现魔云时，裂缝才刚刚打开不久。等他们又“入定”了七天之后，终于在一片震天巨响中结束了修炼。
When Shang Ke discovered the devil clouds, the crack had not appeared for long. After they went at it for seven days, a great heaven breaking sound finally ended their cultivation.
天空阴云密布，日月无光。寒风肆掠，仿若鬼哭狼嚎。魔界通道被打开了一半，疯涌而来的不只有魔云，还有无数拥有低级智慧的魔灵。
Dark clouds covered the sky so tightly that the light of the sun and moon couldn’t get through. The cold wind blew and sounded like the wails of ghosts and howls of wolves. The entrance of the devil realm was already half open, not only were devil clouds coming out even countless low level sentience devil spirits.
修真界高手倾巢出动，一部分负责封印魔界通道，一部分负责清理四处作乱的魔物。他们绝对不能让魔界通道完全打开，否则修真界必将迎来一场毁灭性的灾难。
The entirety of the cultivators of the cultivation realm moved out, a portion was in charge of sealing the devil realm passage while another portion was in charge of clearing up all the things that came through the passage. They cannot let the devil realm passage to open completely, otherwise, the cultivation realm will enter a period of devastating disaster.
尚可回想系统提供的信息，记得在原来的进程中，正是此次魔界裂缝的出现，让阎戮拥有了一统修真界的契机。魔灵在他的控制下，席卷大地，侵吞生灵，利用夺舍之法，炼化出无数魔奴。
Shang Ke thought back to the information given by the System and remembered that in the original plotline, it was when the devil realm crack appeared did Yan Lu have the chance to take over the cultivation realm. Under his control, the devil spirits engulf the world, swallowed up all living creatures and using a forceful control spell to refine countless devil slaves.
魔界通道并没有完全打开，因为天道的禁制之力以及数十名高手的牺牲，最终还是成功将其封印。但修真界已经在魔物的肆掠下，变成了人间地狱。
The devil realm passage did not completely open due to the restriction of Heavenly Law as well as the sacrifice of a dozen experts that successfully sealed it in the end. But under the plundering of the devils, the cultivation realm turned into a hell.
尚可转头看了看身边的男人，虽然他已经转修正道，但谁知他会不会突然发现毁灭世界似乎也不错，然后任性地叛变阵营。魔道的可怕之处，在于它不需要从头修炼，只要道心动摇，便有可能坠入魔道。
Shang Ke turned his head to look at the man beside him. Although he had turned onto the righteous path, who knows if he might suddenly feel that destroying the world would be pretty nice and willfully defect to them. The frightening thing about the devil path was that one did not need to cultivate again from the beginning. As long as one’s heart wavers, it was possible to fall.
数之不尽的魔灵从天而降，朝尚可和阎戮两人涌来。
Countless devil spirits fell from the sky and headed for where Shang Ke and Yan Le were at.
以两人如今的修为，对付这些魔灵自然不费吹灰之力。但只要魔界通道一天不关，魔灵便会源源不断地涌入，杀之不尽。
With their current cultivation, dealing with these devil spirits was beyond easy. But the longer the passage to the devil realm remains open, the more devil spirits that will flow out and it will turn into a never ending killing situation.
“诸位隐士高人，请尽快前往云霄城，合力封印魔界通道。”天空中突然传来一个浑厚的声音，利用千里传音，召集各方高手。
“Everyone, please leave for Yunxiao City as quickly as possible to help seal the passage.” A deep and resounding voice suddenly transmitted through the air by the use of a sound talisman to all the experts.
“阎戮，我们也去吧。”尚可望着下方惨烈的景象，心生不忍。因自保而杀人，他不会眨一下眼睛，但看到成千上万的无辜百姓被魔物折磨，他实在很难无动于衷。
“Yan Lu, let’s go too.” Shang Ke look down at the tragic scene and he couldn’t bear to not do anything. If they killed someone trying to defend themself, he would not even blink his eyes. But seeing thousands of innocent common people being tormented by the devils, he really cannot stay indifferent.
况且，早日将魔界通道封印，让修真界恢复安宁，他们也能早日重回洞府修炼。
Moreover, the sooner they seal the passage, the sooner the cultivation realm can return to peace and then they can return to the cave and cultivate.
阎戮并无异议，跟着尚可前往云霄城。
Yan Lu did not have any opinion and followed Shang Ke to Yunxiao City.
魔界裂缝就在云霄城上空，此处聚集了数十万修真者，但真正有能力封印魔界通道的高手却不多。
The devil realm crack was right above Yunxiao City. hundreds and thousands of cultivators gathered there, but the ones that could truly help seal it were only a few.
修真界第一门派清尘派，有一位先祖自创了一种封魔大阵，威力强大，足以封印魔界通道，但布置阵法需要四十九位大乘期以上的高手。再次一级，至少也需要二十名化神期和二十九名大乘期。
The number one sect Purity Sect has a great Sealing Devil Array made by a deceased senior, it was very strong, strong enough to seal the devil realm’s passage. But to arrange the array, there needs to be forty-nine Immortalization experts. To actually use it, they still needed at least twenty Demigod Stage and twenty-nine Immortalization Stage cultivators.
化神期高手倒是有数百人，但大乘期高手至今不过才凑足二十人。
There were a couple hundred of Demigod Stage experts, but experts of the Immortalization Stage were only twenty.
眼看局势一点点恶化，刻不容缓，清尘派掌门决定背水一战，集合二十名大乘期高手和五十八名化神期高手，一起布置大阵。五十八名化神期，两两组合，以弥补力量的不足。
The situation slowly worsen and they couldn’t delay any longer. The Sect Master of Purity Sect decided to do it since there was no other choice and gathered the twenty Immortalization Stage experts along with fifty-eight Demigod Stage experts to arrange the array. The fifty-eight Demigod Stage cultivators paired together to combine their power to make up their deficiency.
当尚可和阎戮赶到时，封魔大阵已经启动。
When Shang Ke and Yan Lu hurried over, the Sealing Devil Array has already been started.
阴暗的天空中，一条长长的裂缝撕裂空间，露出一个黑不见底的黑洞，无数魔物从里面飞出，发出一阵阵刺耳的呜嚎之声。
In the dark sky, a long crack that ripped apart the space revealed a endless black hole. Countless devils flew out from within, howling and crying ear-piercing sounds.
近百名修真者漂浮在上空，他们身上的光芒，有如一颗颗闪烁的星子，分布在裂缝周围，纵横交织，逐渐组合成一座巨大的阵法。
The near one hundred cultivators floated in the sky, rays of light shone from their body as if they were stars and scattered around the surrounding of the crack. It crossed and interwave, gradually assembling into a giant array.
阵法之威，声势浩大，还有成千上万的修真者为他们掠阵。所有魔物都被困于其中，如网中的小鱼，拥挤挣扎。随着它们的数量越聚越多，阵法所受的冲击力也越来越大，光芒忽明忽暗，仿佛随时会被冲破一般。
The array’s power was great while tens of thousands of cultivators fought and helped protect the array. All the devils were trapped within like small fishes in a net and struggled in the tight crowd. As more and more were grouped together, the greater the impact the array was starting to get. The light would brighten and darken, as if it would be broken at any moment.
化神期毕竟比不上大乘期，而且人数越多，力量越杂，越难控制。
Cultivators of the Demigod Stage could not compare to Immortalization Stage, furthermore, the more people there were, the more mixed the power, the harder it was to control.
这时，有一名布阵者突然口吐鲜血，从空中坠落。
One of the cultivators in the array suddenly spat a mouthful of blood and fell from the sky.
随后，又有第二名第三名相继坠落。虽然有人及时顶上，但依然难以弥补缺失。
Soon after, there were a second and third that fell. Although there was someone that quickly took their place, it was hard to make up the deficiency.
大阵变得摇摇欲坠，眼看即将破灭，两束白光突然掠空而来，先后顶替两名布阵者的位置。
The great array started to become unbalanced and was soon about to break when two white lights suddenly sped by and took place of the two that fell.
他们的加入，顿时让大阵恢复生机，光芒再次闪耀。
With their participation, the great array immediately returned back to full power and the light became even brighter.
众人定睛望去，这才看清来人的样貌。
Everyone looked over and was finally able to take a good look at the two.
在混元界开启前，或许无人认识他们。但在此之后，他们的大名却是响彻整个修真界。
Perhaps no one knew of them before the Origin Realm opened. But after it, their famous name resounded throughout the entire cultivation realm.
一位是被众人誉为“隐圣”的阎戮。
Yan Lu who everyone praised as the “Hidden Saint”.
一位是让众人趋之若鹜的灵妖尚可。
And Shang Ke, a spirit that made everyone run around on a wild goose chase.
两人的出现，一下子吸引了无数人的目光，直到魔物再次冲击大阵，他们才收敛心神，专心对付眼前的危机。
The appearance of the two attracted countless gazes until the devils once again attacked the array and they returned back to the matter at hand with full concentration to handle the crisis.
但在阵外守护的修真者们却没有诸多顾忌，好奇的目光时不时朝两人飘去。特别是尚可，这位千年难遇的妖灵，可是众多修真者们梦寐以求的双修对象兼大补之物。
But the cultivators protecting them did not have such misgivings. Their curious gazes would float to them from time to time. Especially Shang Ke, this rare spirit that could only be found every millennium and was the dream of many cultivators for dual cultivation to greatly enhance their power.
尚可身上灵光闪烁，仙气萦绕，双眸明亮，如珠玉一般晶莹璀璨，白色的短发在风中拂动，仙姿绝世，在一群面容惨淡、精神萎靡的修真者中，宛如明珠皓月。
The spiritual light flickered on Shang Ke’s body along with the remnants of immortal qi. His clear eyes were bright like jewels and his white hair fluttered with the wind. His beauty was exceptional and really appeared like a bright moon within the group of gloomy and dispirited cultivators.
大阵运转时间越长，布阵者的力量越弱，精神也更加不济。唯有尚可，越是耗力，越是妖艳。一刻钟过去，深暗的天空上，只有尚可和阎戮身上的光芒最盛，仿若两颗闪耀的帝星，威临天下。
The longer the array stayed activated, the weaker the people who were holding the arrays were and their spirits were also not doing too well. Only Shang Ke became more seducing the more tired he became. A quarter of time passed and only Shang Ke and Yan Lu were still the brightest among those in the dark sky, like two Imperial Stars facing against heaven.
人群中，风落铃见众人的视线都被尚可吸引，心中愤恨难平，一股嫉妒之情油然而生。
Within the crowd was Feng Luoling. Seeing how everyone’s gazes were attracted by Shang Ke, hate filled her heart along with the birth of jealousy.
正在心神动摇间，一只魔灵趁虚而入，虽然很快被驱除，却留下了一道魔印。若在平常，这种魔印只需静修几日即可消除，但风落铃此刻被嫉妒占据，一时心生歹意，手指凝力，悄悄朝尚可后背射去。
While her attention was divided, a devil spirit took the chance to enter her body. Although it was quickly driven out, it left behind the shadow of a devil. Under normal circumstances, this kind of shadow would only need a few days to be eliminated. But Feng Luoling was currently held by jealousy and so malice filled her for a moment and she concentrated power to her finger and quietly shot it at Shang Ke’s back.
尚可正在专心布阵，哪里防得住来自身后的偷袭？只觉得后背一痛，真元大乱，差点被反噬。虽然及时稳住，却还是受了很重的内伤，一抹鲜血缓缓从嘴角流下。
Shang Ke was concentrated on the array so how could he defend from a sneak attack to his back? He only felt pain from his back then his true essence going into chaos and was almost taken over. Although he settled it down in time, he was still obtained a serious internal injury. Blood slowly flowed from the corner of his lips.
阎戮作为他的双修伴侣，在他受到攻击的第一时间就察觉到了。他猛地回头，两道森冷的目光直直朝风落铃所在的位置射去。
As Shang Ke’s dual cultivation partner, Yan Lu was the first to detect that he was attacked. He suddenly turned his head, his cold gaze landing at where Feng Luoling was.
事实上，风落铃刚动手便后悔了。此刻正是修真界危难之际，她怎能因为私愤而破坏大局？随后见尚可抗住了她的攻击，才稍稍放心。但下一刻，她便被阎戮充满杀意的目光锁定，霎那间如坠冰窟，浑身僵硬。
In fact, Feng Luoling immediately regretted after she acted out. This was the moment where the cultivation realm was in a calamity, how could she worsen the situation due to personal spite? Soon after, she saw that Shang Ke managed to resist her attack and was somewhat relieved. But in the next moment, she was frozen still by Yan Lu’s murderous gaze. It was like she had fallen into an ice cage, her entire body was stiff.
接着，她见阎戮身形微动，似乎准备对她出手。她正想逃遁，却又见他止住身形，隐忍地看了尚可一眼，然后重新将注意力移到阵法上。但他身上散发的森冷气息，似乎比阵中的魔物更加可怕。
She saw Yan Lu’s figure move, ready to deal with her. She wanted to escape but then saw his figure stop and glance at Shang Ke. He endured his urge and once again place his attention back onto the array. But his body was still emitting a cold aura that was even more frightening than the devils in the array.
风落铃不由得松了口气，心中既懊恼，又忐忑，还夹杂着几分不甘。
Feng Luoling couldn’t help but let loose a breath of relief. She was annoyed, but also nervous along with some feelings of not being resigned to it.
封魔大阵进行到最后阶段，也是魔物的反击最为猛烈之时。所有布阵者的真元几乎都要耗尽，如今纯靠意志和信念在坚持。
The Sealing Devil Array was entering its final stage and it was also the time where the devils were attacking the most fiercely. Almost all of the people working on the array was exhausted of their true essence, they were now purely persevering on will and faith.
正在这时，裂缝中突然伸出一只巨爪，将原本即将闭合的裂缝又撑开了，一股强大的魔气向众人席卷而来，瞬间将数十名布阵者震飞出去。大阵一下子少了这么多人的支撑，差点被毁。
Right at this moment, a giant claw suddenly stretched out from the crack and caused the crack that was about to be closed to reopen. A powerful wave of devil qi swept away everyone and caused ten array holders to be shaken and thrown away. The large array that took so many people to support was almost destroyed.
幸好封魔大阵此时已经可以自行运转，只要尽快补充灵力，即可稳定。但是在场众人，大多已是强弩之末，面对魔物的疯狂反扑，实在无力支援。
Luckily for them, the Sealing Devil Array can now work on it’s on. As long as the spiritual power is replenished quickly enough, it was stabilized. But the present people were for the most part, completely spent and were powerless in helping the others confront that large devil’s crazy attacks.
是否能够成功封印魔界裂缝，只能靠依然坚守在阵中的数十人。
Whether or not they could successfully seal the crack would depend on those dozen of people that were still holding on within the array.
“诸位，为了修真界的安宁与天下苍生，今日纵死，无憾。”清尘派掌门浑厚的声音在空中响起。
“Everyone, for the safety and peace of the cultivation realm, even if we die today, there would be no regrets.” Purity Sect’s Sect Master spoke in his low voice that echoed in the sky.
“纵死无憾！”无数修真者高声应和。
“There would be no regrets!” Countless other cultivators repeated after him.
随后，他们身上光芒大盛，打算最后拼死一搏。
Soon after, the light on their bodies brighten as they planned to go all out for their last fight.
阎戮与尚可也发挥出最大的力量，与众人同进退。
Yan Lu and Shang Ke also used the last of their powers to advance with everyone else.
数十道耀眼的光芒，将整片黑暗的天空都照亮了。周围的修真者无不仰首，面露崇敬。
A dozen of dazzling rays of light illuminated the dark sky. The surrounding cultivators all raised their heads to look up, their faces filled with reverence.
裂缝中的巨爪在光芒的照耀下，迅速缩了回去，四周的魔物发出尖利的嘶吼，裂缝开始以肉眼可见的速度快速闭合。
The claw from the crack rapidly withdrew under the rays of light. The sharp cry of the devil resounded as the crack closed at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
金光大闪，顷刻间，天地震动，裂缝消失无踪，魔物仓皇逃窜，笼罩在众人头顶的乌云逐渐散去，蓝色的天空再次出现在众人眼前。
Golden light flashed and the heaven and earth started to shake. The crack disappeared without a trace causing the other devils to run away in panic. The black clouds that floated above all gradually scattered and the blue sky could once again be seen.
四周先是一片安静，随即便是震天欢呼。
The entire place was silent for moment, before cheers broke out.
原本还悬浮在空中的布阵者，纷纷向下坠落，随即被其他道友接住，安全送到地面。
The cultivators in charge of the arrays that were still floating fell one after another. Following that, the other cultivators quickly caught them and safely placed them on the floor.
他们的真元消耗一空，连打坐运气的余力都没有了。
Their true essence was completely used up, even the energy to meditate no longer remains.
阎戮也损耗严重，刚刚落地便准备开始调息，不过在此之前，他下意识朝身边的尚可望去，却骇然发现他不知何时已不见踪影。
Yan Lu was also in rather bad shape. He had just landed on the ground and prepared to do absorb some energy, but had subconsciously looked toward where Shang Ke was at before that and found with shock that he was gone.
阎戮心脏一紧，倏地起身，放开神识感应尚可的位置。
Yan Lu’s heart tighten and he swiftly got up to let out his divine sense to find Shang Ke.
随即，他纵身一跃，在众人诧异的目光中，快速朝一个方向飞去。
Immediately, he jumped and quickly flew in a direction under everyone’s flabbergasted expression.
原来就在魔界通道被封印的瞬间，受伤颇重的尚可难以维持身形，向地面坠去，被几名图谋不轨的修真者接住，然后带着他迅速远遁。
As it turns out, right when the devil realm was sealed, the serious injured Shang Ke was unable to maintain his place and fell for the ground. But before he hit the ground, he was caught by some conspiring b*stards and quickly taken away.
阎戮眼中露出森然杀意，身形快如闪电，顷刻间就将还未走远的修真者拦住。
A dense murdering intent shone in Yan Lu’s eyes. His figure was as fast as lightning and he caught up to those cultivators in an instant.
对方见他脚步不稳，气息紊乱，也是恶向胆边生，留下一人看住虚弱的尚可，其他人则一起朝阎戮围攻过去。
Seeing how Shang Ke was so unsteady and panting, their courage grew and left only a single person to make sure the weak Shang Ke couldn’t go anywhere. The others all went to surround Yan Lu.
“该死，你们都该死！”远处的欢呼声犹在耳畔，他与尚可为了封印魔界通道耗费真元，这群人却趁人之危，为了私利，枉顾道义，实在是可恨之极！
“Death, you all deserve death!” The sound of cheering from the distance still sounded in his ears. In order to seal the devil realm passage, he and Shang Ke had used up their true essence and this group of b*stards chose to take advantage of it for personal gain, ignoring morality. He really hated them!
阎戮从未如此愤怒过，身上戾气高涨，下手毫不留情，有如杀神。
Yan Lu had never been so angry before. The viciousness within him swelled and he showed no mercy, as if he was a killing god.
这群人原以为阎戮已经没有反抗之力，没想到他强悍至此，几个回合便杀死两人，重伤三人。剩下一人退到仅剩的三名同伴身边，一把掐住尚可的脖子，颤抖道：“不许动，否则我就杀了他。”
The group of people had thought Yan Lu no longer had any power to resist, but they didn’t expect him to be so strong that he could kill two and seriously injure three in a moment. The remaining man retreated to his remaining three companions, one hand gripping Shang Ke’s neck as he trembled, “Don’t move, or I’ll kill him.”
阎戮在原地站定，冷冷地盯着他。
Yan Lu stood in place while coldly staring at him.
那人见威胁有效，又找回了几分底气，大声道：“你若想让他活命，那就自断经脉。”
That man gained a bit of courage after seeing his threat having some effect and loudly spoke, “If you want him to live, then destroy your own meridians.”
阎戮一动不动。
Yan Lu remained motionless.
那人手上加力，怒喝：“你给我……”
That man became more forceful, angrily shouting, “You…”
话音戛然而止，因为他脑中突然传来一个女声：【你眼前的男子绝非易与之辈，今日若不能将其铲除，他日必将报复。】
He abruptly stopped speaking because a woman’s voice was transmitted into his mind: 【You cannot allow that man to live, if you can’t destroy him completely today, then he was take revenge one day.】
【你是谁？想干什么？】他传音回应。
【Who are you? What do you want?】 He responded back.
【我是谁并不重要，重要的是你想不要除掉眼前的男人。】
【It does not matter who I am. What does matter is do you want to get rid of the man before you or not.】
【当然想，但是我并非他的对手。】
【Of course I do, but I am not his opponent.】
【你忘了你手上抓着的是什么东西？】
【You forget what you have in your hands?】
那人一愣，看了看身前的尚可，说道：【你让我用他威胁阎戮？这有何新奇？我已经这么做了。】
That man froze, then looked at Shang Ke in front of him and asked: 【You want me to use him to threaten Yan Lu? What’s new about that? I am already doing that.】
【呵，威胁？你为何要抓尚可？难道不是为了增强自己的修为吗？现在仙药就在你手上，你居然不知利用。】
【Heh, threaten? Why did you catch Shang Ke? Didn’t you want to improve your cultivation? Now that the legendary medicine is in your hands, you aren’t using it.】
【你的意思是？】
【You mean to?】
【将他身上的仙灵之气纳为己用，即可瞬间提升实力，对付此刻元气大伤的阎戮，必然不费吹灰之力。】
【Absorb the immortal qi from his body and increase your own power immediately to deal with Yan Lu. It would be effortless.】
那人眼中一亮，脸上闪过贪婪之色。
That man’s eyes lit up and greed flitted through his eyes.
两人的交流不过须臾之间，抓住尚可的人很快做出决定，手上真元运转，开始吸收尚可身上的仙灵之气。
The two people’s exchange only lasted a few seconds. The man grabbing Shang Ke made his decision and started to work his true essence to absorb Shang Ke’s immortal qi.
尚可苍白的脸色瞬间变得透明，眼中闪过一丝痛苦。他受制于人，不能化成原形，否则仙灵之气必然流逝得更快。
Shang Ke’s pale face momentarily became transparent and pain shone in his eyes. Being controlled by another person, he couldn’t turn back into his original form, otherwise, the loss of his immortal qi would become even faster.
阎戮随即收到感应，双瞳紧缩，凝聚最后的力量，发狂般地朝那人扑去。
Yan Lu immediately felt the reaction and his eyes narrowed. He condensed the last bit of his power and crazily rushed the man.
那人早有准备，传音给同伴，让他们替他拖延片刻。
That man had preparations long beforehand. He passed on a message to his companions and had them delay Yan Lu for him.
阎戮曾是何等强悍，却因为耗力太多，竟然被这群卑鄙之徒困住，心中煞气澎湃，原本已经远遁的魔灵，仿佛受到召唤，纷纷向这边涌来。
Yan Lu was strong once, but because he used up too much power, he was actually trapped by this group of despicable people. The killing intent in his heart surge and the devil spirits that were left far behind rushed over as if they were summoned.
“是魔灵！它们怎么又回来了？”一人惊道。
“It’s devil spirits! How did they come back again?” One man said in chock.
“别管他们，先对付阎戮！”
“Don’t worry about them, deal with Yan Lu first!”
几人于是在魔灵环伺下，继续向阎戮攻去。
Under the devil spirit ring, the people continued to attack Yan Lu.
阎戮毫不在意身上不断增加的伤痕，眼神逐渐变得冷漠幽暗，残余的仙灵之气收回体内，魔灵的气息一点点侵袭。
Yan Lu did not care about the injuries that steadily increased on his body. The expression within his eyes gradually became cold and gloomy as the remaining immortal spiritual qi was taken back and the presence of a devil started to slowly invade.
剧痛中的尚可见此情景，心中大惊，几乎不用想也知道，这是即将入魔的前兆！
The pained Shang Ke was greatly alarmed at this scene. He didn’t even need to think to know this was the first sign that Yan Lu was about to enter the devil path!
他好不容易将阎戮引入正道，又怎会让他再入魔道，这不只是为了任务，也是为了阎戮的未来。
He finally drew Yan Lu to the righteous path, how could he let him re-enter the devil path? This wasn’t just for his mission, it was also for Yan Lu’s future.
魔君虽然威风，却需要经历无数魔劫，稍有不慎便会魂飞魄散。如果他所经历的世界都是真实的，那么所爱的这个男人一直在每个世界轮回，一旦魂飞魄散，他无法确定下个世界是否还能遇到他，他也不敢赌。
Although a Devil Lord was mighty, one needed to go through countless devil tribulations. Just a single mistake could scatter and destroy the soul. If all the worlds he experienced were real, and this man he loved was always reincarnating in those worlds, he didn’t know if he could still meet him in the next world if his soul was scattered and destroyed. He didn’t dare to gamble on it.
“不要，阎戮！”尚可大声喊道。
“Don’t, Yan Lu!” Shang Ke shouted loudly.
阎戮却已经听不到他声音，整个人已经陷入无情无欲的状态。
But Yan Lu could not longer hear his voice as he sank into a state of neither emotion nor desire
尚可身上的力量正在一点点流失，他望着即将入魔的阎戮，眼中带着不舍和决然。
Shang Ke’s power was slowly being drained bit by bit. He watched as Yan Lu was about to become a devil, his eyes full of unwillingness and determination.
接着，白发轻轻浮起，身上金芒闪烁，化作万千星点。
Following that, his white hair faintly floated as golden light flickered on his body, slowly changing into countless bright spots.
“你，你在做什么？”正在吸收仙灵之气的男子一脸惊异地盯着尚可。
“You, what are you doing?” The man that was absording the immortal spiritual qi had a face full of amazement as he started at Shang Ke.
尚可一语不发，目光始终凝聚在阎戮身上。
Shang Ke still did not say a word as his gaze stayed on Yan Lu from beginning to end.
不过片刻，男子终于发现尚可目的，他竟然在散功？！虽想阻止，却已经来不及了，尚可在他眼前化作一团光雾，然后快速冲向阎戮，顷刻间融入他的体内。
However, in a moment, the man had finally noticed Shang Ke’s purpose. He was actually scattering his power?! Although he wanted to stop him, he was already too late. Shang Ke turned into a bright fog before him and charged quickly into Yan Lu, blending within his body.
熟悉的气息刚进入体内，阎戮便恢复了神智。
The familiar presence had just entered his body and returned Yan Lu to his senses.
“你干什么？！”他一脸惊怒。
“What are you doing?!” His face was full of fury.
将此之力，融入彼身，大道在前，破除业障，直达天梯。
Let this power blend into his body, with the path before him, clear away his karmic hindrances until the stairway to heaven.
【小蘑菇，你给我停下，我不需要你的力量！】
【Little Mushroom, stop, I don’t need your power!】
【阎戮，答应我，不要入魔，坚守正道。】曾经的小蘑菇被阎戮所吞食，成为他突破魔境的补药；如今的小蘑菇，甘愿被他吞食，成为他踏入神境的助力。
【Yan Lu, promise me, don’t walk on the path of the devil, hold onto the righteous path.】 Once upon a time, the little mushroom was devoured by Yan Lu and became the tonic for him to break through the devil realm. The current little mushroom will willingly let him devour him, and become a helping hand for him to enter the God realm.
【这样的正道，我为何要坚守？】所谓名门正派，不过是一群披着衣冠楚楚的卑劣之辈，小蘑菇救人无数，心地善良，从未得到回报不说，还总是受人欺凌。拼尽全力保护修者界，最后却被这些正道人士逼上绝路。
【Why should I hold onto this kind of righteous path?】 The so-called righteous sects were only a group of despicable people wearing a lovely righteous name. On the other hand, Little Mushroom saved countless people, was so very kindhearted and never obtained any in return, rather, he was always being bullied and humiliated by others. He was doing his best to protect the cultivation realm, yet was forced onto the path of no return by these righteous cultivators.
【那就……让我成为你心中的正道。】
【Then… let me become the righteous path within your heart.】
【什么？】
【What?】
【不为天道正义，只为我。】
【Don’t fight for righteous because of heavenly law, but for me.】
【只为你……】阎戮眼中闪过一抹光华。
【Only for you…】 A trace of splendor flashed through Yan Lu’s eyes.
【我愿与你结下生死契约，纵然轮回千百世，也能再次相遇。所以阎戮，为了我，坚守正道。总有一天，我将与你堂堂正正地站在阳光下，接受世人的敬仰……】
【I wish to tie a life and death agreement with you, so that even if I reincarnate after thousands and hundreds of years, we can meet again. So Yan Lu, for me, hold tightly onto the righteous path. One day, you and I will be able to stay together under the sun without fear and accept everyone’s respect…】
尚可的声音悄然消逝，但熟悉的气息却留在了阎戮的灵魂之中，与他融为一体。
Shang Ke’s voice quietly faded away, but his familiar presence stayed within Yan Lu’s soul, fusing together with him.
阎戮身上金光大盛，如太阳一般耀眼夺目，瞬间将周围的魔灵清扫一空。体内力量疯狂涌动，强大的气劲如飓风一般向四周荡开。
Golden light shone from Yan Lu’s body, dazzling like the sun as all the devil spirits were cleared from the surrounding in moments. The power within him bubbled up crazily, a powerful aura swept everything away like a hurricane.
这般威势，很快引来了附近的其他修真者。他们见到金光中的阎戮，无不露出震惊之色。
This show of power quickly drew the other cultivators nearby. When they saw Yan Lu within the golden light, they all revealed shock.
何为天道，何为正义？小蘑菇即是他的天道，即是他的正义。
Why do it for heavenly law, or for righteousness? His Little Mushroom was his heavenly law, and his righteousness.
天空之上，劫云凝聚。
Tribulation clouds formed aboved.
九重天劫，应运而生。
The nine layer tribulation begins.
一代神君，历劫重临。
A new God Lord shall ascend from this tribulation.
阎戮缓缓睁开眼，眼中冷漠，嘴角却扬起一抹诡笑……
Yan Lu slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were cold and detached, but a smirk rose on his lips…
