King of Myriad Domain
Chapter 138
冰冷坚硬的陨石地，一具腐朽了不知多少年的尸骸，静静地停放着。
On the cold and hard meteorite ground, a corpse that had decayed for G.o.d knows how many years was silently placed.
那具尸骸，皮肤暗绿，明显不是人族。
That corpse had a dark green skin, and was clearly not of the human race.
尸骸的臀部，有着一条一米长的尾巴，那尾巴血肉褪尽，只剩下一根根灰白骨节。
There was a metre long tail on the b.u.t.t of the corpse. That tail had no flesh on it, and only had ash coloured joints left on it.
骨节的顶部，犹如弯勾，那弯勾刺入石地内，历经千万年，还在闪烁着淡淡绿光，内部仿佛还有力量蕴藏。
The top of the joints were similar to forks in the ground. Those forks stabbed into the stone ground. Even after it had experienced countless years, a faint green light was still flickering on it, and there seemed to still be energy contained in it.
“这是……”聂天观察半响，微微皱眉，道：“异族之身？”
“This is…” Nie Tian observed it for a long time and furrowed his brows as he said: “The body of a different race?”
郑彬点头，轻声说道：“我从小都在离天域，从来也没有见过异族。但这家伙，分明不是和我们一样的人族，他也不知道死了多少年了，但他那根尾巴，还存在着很明显的能量波动。”
Zheng Bin nodded his head and softly said: “I’ve been in the Heaving Leaving Domain since young, and I’ve never seen a different race before. But this guy is clearly not from our human race. He’s been dead for G.o.d knows how many years, but that tail of his still possesses an obvious energy undulation.”
“你那么激动干什么？”聂天不解道。
“What are you so excited?” Nie Tian was puzzled as he spoke.
“那尾巴内蕴藏的能量，有着浓郁的生机，那些生机很是不凡。”郑彬讲话时，又悄悄打量着四周，似乎担心会被发现一般，“我想尝试着，将他的尾巴斩断，想要夺取那根尾巴，但又有点害怕……”
“The energy contained in that tail has a dense life force, and that life force is extremely unordinary.” When Zheng Bin spoke, he quietly measured up his surroundings again, as if he was worried that he was discovered, “I want to try cutting his tail off and taking that tail, but I’m a bit scared…”
“害怕？他都死了那么久了，你害怕什么？”聂天奇道。
“Scared? He’s already been dead for so long, what are you scared for?” Nie Tian curiously said.
“我刚试过了……”郑彬苦涩一笑，“可我手中的灵器，连切断那根尾巴都不能。那根尾巴，只剩下一根根骨节了，依然坚固的可怕。”
“I’ve already tried…” Zheng Bin bitterly laughed, “But the spirit equipment in my hand can’t even cut that tail. That tail only has joints left, but it’s still scarily st.u.r.dy.”
“你不会是想让我帮你吧？”聂天愣了一下，旋即反应过来，摇头说道：“我也没有那般锋利的器物。”
“You can’t be thinking of asking me to help you?” Nie Tian was stunned for a moment. Shortly after, he reacted and shook his head as he said: “I also don’t have such a sharp spirit equipment.”
“你是巫寂的弟子，你师傅难道没有赐予你高等级的灵器？”郑彬眼巴巴地看着他。
“You are Wu Ji’s disciple, could it be that your master didn’t bestow a high ranked spirit equipment upon you?” Zheng Bin impatiently looked at him.
聂天没有犹豫，再次摇头，“没有。”
Nie Tian didn’t hesitate and shook his head again, “Nope.”
巫寂在他踏入天门之前，的确赐予他很多保命之物，但那些东西真没有锋利的灵器。
Before he had stepped into the Heavenly Gate, Wu Ji had indeed given him many life protecting items, but there truly wasn’t a sharp spirit equipment within those items.
巫寂只告诉他，既然拥有了通灵级的炎龙铠，他只需要耐心地慢慢和炎龙铠内的器魂建立深切的联系，就能通过炎龙铠获取他想要的一切。
Wu Ji only told him that, since he had a Spirit Grade Flame Dragon Armor, he only needed to patiently and slowly establish a deep relationship with the weapon spirit within the Flame Dragon Armor, and use the Flame Dragon Armor to obtain everything that he wanted.
有了炎龙铠，何须其它的灵器？
With the Flame Dragon Armor, why should he care about other spirit equipments?”
“哦，没有就算了。”郑彬满脸失望。
“Oh, then it’s fine if you don’t have it.” Zheng Bin had a face full of disappointment.
在他来看，聂天分明是在推脱，不愿意帮助他。
In his opinion, Nie Tian was clearly shirking away, unwilling to help him.
他也知道他和聂天的关系，谈不上亲密，而且他还三番两次地舍弃过聂天。
He also knew about the relationship between him and Nie Tian. They weren’t even close, and he had even abandoned Nie Tian two times out of three.
当时，他和韩馨被困在赤炎山脉，而聂天等人乘坐着雷冥兽离开时，也没有片刻停留。
At that time, he and Han Xin were trapped in the Scarlet Flaem Mountain Range. And when Nie Tian and the others were riding the Dark Thunder Beast to leave, they didn’t stop for him either.
他觉得聂天会这么做，也是理所当然。
He felt that it was natural for Nie Tian to do this.
之后，郑彬也就没有继续理会聂天，而是蹲在那有着尾巴的异族尸骸旁边，拿出一柄利剑，还不死心的尝试。
After that, Zheng Bin didn’t continue to pay attention to Nie Tian. Instead, he was squatting beside the tail of the corpse of the creature of a different race. He took out a sharp sword and continued trying with an unresigned heart.
郑彬一剑斩去。
Zheng Bin slashed out.
“叮！”
“Ding!”
从那尸骸的尾巴上，骤然溅射出点点白光和绿芒。
Dots of white and green light suddenly splashed out from the tail of the corpse.
聂天凝神细看，发现在郑彬的那柄剑，落下一根骨节时，骨节上闪烁着的绿色微光，突瞬间明亮了一下。
Nie Tian carefully looked at it, and noticed that when Zheng Bin’s sword landed on a joint, the faint green light that was flickering on the joint suddenly brightened up in an instant.
一股充满着勃勃生机的奇异能量，从那骨节内骤然涌现，似再一次加固了利剑砍向的那根骨节。
A strange energy that was filled with a vigorous life force suddenly rushed out from that bone, as if it was strengthening that joint that the sword was slashing towards.
那根骨节，没有一丝缺口，反倒是拿剑的郑彬，身形微微一晃。
That joint didn’t have any marks on it. Instead, the sword-holding Zheng Bin faintly shook.
郑彬还是没有死心，一处骨节不行，他便朝着其它的骨节再次动手。
Zheng Bin was still unresigned. Since this joint failed, he made a move towards the other joints.
“叮叮！叮叮！”
“Ding ding! Ding ding!”
然而，每一根骨节，在他落剑的那一刻，都会绽放出绿芒。
However, in the instant that his sword fell, every single joint would release a green light.
那些绿芒，将郑彬那只剑的冲击力，还有剑芒，都给消泯于无形。
That green light would eliminate the attacking force and the sword light of Zheng Bin’s sword.
等那柄剑落下时，早已灵力黯淡，再无锋利可言。
When his sword landed, its spirit force had already dulled, and the sword was no longer sharp.
“有点意思……”
“It’s a little interesting…”
聂天也被勾起了兴趣，眯着眼，认真打量着那骨节，在思考着，究竟该通过何种方式，才能破开那骨节内浓郁生机的抵抗。
Nie Tian’s interest had also been piqued. He squinted his eyes and seriously measured up that joint. He was pondering what method he should use to break open the resistance of the strong life force of that joint.
一缕精神意识，悄悄逸入储物手环内，他在储物手环内，去找寻有没有可能破开那骨节自身抵御的器物。
He quietly sent a strand of mental awareness into his storage bracelet, and tried to find any equipments within his storage bracelet that could break open the self-defense of that joint.
可惜，除了炎龙铠之外，他的确没有其余灵器可用。
Unfortunately, besides his Flame Dragon Armor, he truly didn’t have any spirit equipments that he could use.
而炎龙铠，如今正处于沉睡状态，在炼化地火晶线的力量，自我修复着损伤。
And the Flame Dragon Armor was currently in a dormant mode to refine the energy in the Earth Fire Crystal Strings, self-recovering its damages.
他不可能为了郑彬，将炎龙铠从沉睡中唤醒，以炎龙铠去尝试。
He couldn’t possibly awaken the Flame Dragon Armor from its sleep to try using it, just for Zheng Bin.
另外，炎龙铠为通灵级的至宝，而且来源于暗冥域。
In addition, the Flame Dragon Armor was an extremely precious treasure of the Spirit Grade, and it came from the Hidden Underworld Domain.
不论是华暮，还是他师父巫寂，都提醒过他，不到生死存亡之际，尽量不要去动用炎龙铠，以免消息泄露，惹来暗冥域的注意。
No matter whether it was Hua Mu, or his master Wu Ji, they had both reminded him to never use the Flame Dragon Armor, unless it was a situation of life and death. This was the prevent this information from leaking, which would attract the attention of the Hidden Underworld Domain.
找不到方法的他，也没有多说什么，更懒得理会郑彬的白费苦心。
He, who had no methods, didn’t say anything. He was even more disinclined to care about Zheng Bin’s waste of effort.
“你继续，我四处走走。”
“You continue, I’ll go walk about.”
丢下这句话以后，他便和郑彬分别，有了郑彬的提醒，他这趟也不敢胡乱冲向天空。
After speaking, he separated with Zheng Bin. With Zheng Bin’s warning, he didn’t dare to randomly charge into the sky this time.
他控制着身子，适应着重力，以轻快地脚步，在他和郑彬所在的那一块棱形陨石内活动开来。
He controlled his body to adapt to the gravity here. He used light and quick steps and moved about on the protrusion shaped meteorite that Zheng Bin was on.
只有五六里的陨石，很快就被他游荡了一圈，他始终以精神意识感知周边。
It was only a meteorite that was five or six li long, and he had quickly wandered around it. He had always been using his mental awareness to sense his surroundings.
他确信，在这块棱形的陨石上，除了他和郑彬之外，并没有其他人存在。
He was convinced that there was no one else on this protrusion shaped meteorite except for Zheng Bin and him.
不久后，他来到了那块棱形陨石的棱角处。
Not long after, he arrived at the edge of the protrusion shaped meteorite.
棱角处，一根细长的石棱，有数百米长，刺向和他们连接的另一块更大的陨石。
At the edge, a slender stone protrusion which was several hundreds of metres long stabbed towards another meteorite that was even bigger than the one he was on, which conencted them.
细长的石棱，仅容一只脚落下，如果他愿意，可以通过那一根石棱，去那一块和他临近的陨石。
The slender stone protrusion was only a footstep away. If he wanted to, he could move towards the meteorite that was close to his via the stone protrusion.
但他并没有那么去做。
But he didn’t do that.
先前，一股寒风吹拂而过，他以自身灵力去抵御寒气，已消耗了不少力量。
Previously, when the cold wind blew over, he had used the spirit force in his body to withstand the cold air, causing him to have already wasted an amount of energy that wasn’t small.
有了在青幻界战斗的经历，他知道他本来境界就低微，如果还不能始终保持在巅峰状态，一旦遇到陌生人，他势必会吃大亏。
With the experiences that he had from the battles within the Green Illusion Realm, he knew that his cultivation realm was low in the first place. If he couldn’t maintain in his peak state, he would definitely pay bitterly once he met a stranger.
于是他坐了下来，取出他师傅巫寂给他的灵石，先以炼气诀，将消耗的灵力恢复。
Thus, he sat down and took out the spirit stones that his master Wu Ji gave him to first use Lianqi(qi refining) secrets to recover his lost spirit force.
在这个过程中，他还将那一块令牌，从储物手环内拿出。
During this process, he even took out the command medallion from his storage ring.
等灵力恢复了，他的一缕精神，逸入令牌内，去查看巫寂所烙印在里面的三篇灵诀。
When his spirit force had recovered, he sent a strand of his consciousness into the command medallion, to check the three spirit secrets that Wu Ji had branded within it.
依照巫寂的吩咐，他可以选择一种，亦或者三种灵诀去修炼。
Following Wu Ji’s instructions, he could choose one of them or three of them to cultivate.
因为时间紧迫，他在离天域时，只是粗略看了一下，就不再去过度在意。
Because time was pressing, he had only roughly looked at them for a moment while he was at the Heaven Leaving Domain, without excessively caring about them.
如今到了这冰冷的异地，暂时他还算是安全，他想趁着这个不错的时机，尽快掌握一种灵诀修炼，好提升自身力量。
Currently, he was at this cold mysterious land. He was temporarily safe, and he wanted to use this good opportunity to quickly master a spirit secret cultivation to raise the power of his body.
“炎灵诀，幻灵诀，柔水诀……”
“Flame Spirit Secret, Illusion Spirit Secret, Soft Water Secret…”
迄今为止，他也没有确定自身的修炼属性，不知道以后的修炼方向。
Up till now, he had also never confirmed his own cultivation attribute, and didn’t know what direction his cultivation would continue in the future.
他曾为此询问过巫寂。
Because of this, he had oonce asked Wu Ji.
根据巫寂所说，没有特别修炼属性的人，其实并不是一无是处。
According to Wu Ji, not everything was bad for people who didn’t have a special cultivation attribute.
无属性的人，可以选择多种灵诀去修炼，任何一种灵诀，都能持续往下修炼下去。
People with no attributes can choose many types of spirit secrets to cultivate, and they can continue to cultivate any type of spirit secret.
这是无属性人的优势。
This is the superiority of people with no cultivation attribute.
但劣势，也同样很明显。
However, their disadvantages are also extremely obvious.
没有特别属性的人，想要修炼一种带属性的灵诀，比起那些自身属性和灵诀属性呼应者，修炼的速度要慢的多。
If people without cultivation attributes want to cultivate a spirit secret that carries an attribute with it, then their cultivation speed will be much slwoer than people with matching attributes.
不仅如此，想要领悟一种灵诀的精妙，需要耗费的精力和时间，也多的多。
Not only that, but they would have to waste much more energy and time to comprehend the exquisities of the spirit secret.
譬如安诗怡，因为修炼属性为火焰，她要是去修炼炎灵诀，就会进展迅猛，可以在领悟炎灵诀时，有更深的体悟和感触。
For example, An Shiyi. Because she had a fire attributed cultivation, she would have rapid advances if she were to go cultivate Fire Spirit Secrets. When she was comprehending the attribute of fire, she would have deeper comprehensions and understandings.
没有任何修炼属性的他，去修炼炎灵诀，比起安诗怡来，进展就会慢的多，甚至有可能终身无望突破到火焰的极致。
If he, who had no cultivation attributes, went to go cultivate the Flame Spirit Secret, his improvement compared to An Shiyi would be much slower, to the extent where he could have no hope during his entire lifetime to breakthrough to the pinnacle of fire.
但，拥有火属性的安诗怡，如果不是修炼炎灵诀，而是领悟柔水诀，则是会困难重重。
However, if An Shiyi who possessed the fire attribute didn’t cultivate Fire Spirit Secrets and comprehended Soft Water Secrets instead, it would be extremely difficult for her.
比起他这个无属性的人，都要凶险万分，甚至可能会因为和自身属性相冲，经常性地陷入狂乱入魔状态。
Compared to a person like him who has no attributes, it would be countless times more difficult, so much so that she could descend into a hysterical-demon like state due to the conflict between attributes.
无属性者，虽能修炼种种灵诀，但每一种都进展缓慢，可能一辈子都无法领悟其中一种灵诀的真正玄奥。
Although a person with no attributes could cultivate all kinds of spirit secrets, his improvement in every type would be slow. Possibly, he might be unable to comprehend the true profound mysteries within the spirit secret for his entire life.
人族的寿命，是有限制的，这就导致无属性者，还没有完全感悟一种灵诀的精妙，没有突破到新的境界，就直接耗尽了寿龄而亡。
The lifespan of the human race was limited. This caused people with no attributes to directly burn out their lifespan and die due to beingunable to comprehend the exquisities of a spirit secret and breaking through to a new realm.
也是如此，离天域的七大宗门，在挑选弟子时，往往都会选择那种本身就自带属性天赋者。
It was also because of this, that the seven great sects of the Heaven Leaving Domain would frequently choose talents that originally had attributes while choosing disciples.
然后，根据那些人的天赋，赐予专门的灵诀，让其可以用一种较快的速度不断突破自身，获取更多的寿龄，持续修炼下去。
After that, they would bestow spirit secrets that were specialised to their talents, letting them continuously breakthrough with a much faster speed, which let them increase their lifespans even more, allowing them to continue cultivating.
“炎龙铠，肯定是火焰属性了，既然如此，我自然要修炼炎灵诀了。”
“The Flame Dragon Armor is definitely of the fire attribute. Since it’s like this, I’ll naturally want to cultivate the Flame Spirit Secret.”
聂天想了一会儿，就很快定下了方向，准备将炎灵诀视为第一种修炼的灵诀。
Nie Tian thought for a moment and quickly determined the direction that he was going on. He prepared to view the Flame Spirit Secret as the first type of spirit secret that he used to cultivate.
他仔细去研读炎灵诀，着手去修炼。
He carefully studiewd the Flame Spirit Secret and set out to cultivate.
