Chapter 150 - Meeting Yu Tong Again

 

不知过了多久。

After a period of time passed.

聂天从修炼中醒来，摆放在他面前的一堆火晶石，有七块被抽离了火焰之力，化为碎裂的凡石。

Nie Tian awoke from his cultivation. Seven of the fire crystals from the pile in front of him had been drained of their fire energy and had shattered into mundane pieces of rock.

灵海之中，由火焰之力凝聚而成的漩涡，经过这一番修炼，明显又变大了不少。

Within his spirit sea, the whirlpool of fire energy clearly increased in size by a significant amount, after this round of cultivation.

其中蕴藏着的火焰之力，比起他和贾鹏战斗之前，也要浑厚精炼许多。

The fire energy contained within it was much thicker and more refined compared to how it was before the fight with Jia Peng. 

入定之前，他的筋脉和血肉，有一部分受到贾鹏大地之力的冲击，而出现了一定程度的破损。

Previously, his internal organs had suffered a certain degree of injury as a result of the earth energy from Jia Peng’s attack.

他在修炼前，刻意吞吃了大量的灵兽肉，来源于灵兽肉的精纯血肉之力，似悄悄散逸开来，已在不知不觉中，将他的肉体伤势治愈。

Nie Tian had deliberately eaten a large amount of spirit beast meat before cultivating. The pure fleshy power that came from the spirit beast meat seemed to have quietly spread throughout his body. He had unconsciously recovered from his injuries.

“你醒了？” 离他十米远的郑彬，一袭白衣，模样俊朗，温和地笑问道。

“You’re awake?” Zheng Bin asked with a warm smile, standing about ten metres away. He wore a white shirt and had a handsome appearance. 

聂天起身，点了点头，道：“多久了？”

Nie Tian rose and nodded his head, asking: “How long was I cultivating for?”

他没有计时用的小器物，可他却知道在青幻界时，郑彬就有能在异域计算时间的器物。

He didn’t have any instruments that could tell time. However, from his experience in the Green Illusion Realm, he knew Zheng Bin had an instrument that could tell the time within mysterious realms.

“两天。”郑彬回答。

“Two days.” Zheng Bin replied.

聂天摸了摸鼻子，呵呵一笑，说道：“运气不错，这两天竟然没有被人搜寻到。”

Nie Tian rubbed his nose as he chuckled and said: “Seems our luck isn’t bad. Surprisingly, no one managed to discover us during these two days.”

“哈哈。”郑彬也笑了起来，“不知道为什么，我们合力斩杀了贾鹏以后，我忽然不再那么惧怕了。当然，你肯定是最主要的原因，你在面对贾鹏时的无惧，似感染了我，让我也觉得这趟天门内的试炼，只要我能活着出去，必将受益终生！”

“Haha,” Zheng Bin also laughed, “I don’t know why, but after we killed Jia Peng together, I’m suddenly not that scared anymore. Of course, you’re the main reason. Your fearlessness when facing Jia Peng seems to have rubbed off on me. I feel that I’d be able to obtain a lifelong benefit, as long as I can live through this time’s trial in the Heavenly Gate!”

“哦，是么？”聂天讶然。

“Oh, really?” Nie Tian was astonished.

“嗯，我看你好像压根不知道恐惧为何物。当然，也有可能是因为你手中持有足够多的底牌，所以你才有这样的信心。”郑彬站了起来，看向远方一块漂浮于星空的陨石，说道：“或许我们可以试着去其它地方看看了。”

“Yeah, you look like someone who completely doesn’t understand the concept of fear. Naturally, it might be your trump cards that allows you to have this confidence.” Zheng Bin stood up. He looked towards a meteorite that was floating in space as he spoke: “Perhaps we can go look around in other places.”

这是他主动提出离开。

This was him taking the initiative to leave.

如果只是他一人，他是没有这个底气和自信，促使聂天和他走出这个目前来看还算是安全的地方的。

If he was alone, he wouldn’t have such confidence to urge him and Nie TIan to leave this currently safe place.

聂天在斩杀贾鹏时，所使用的种种奇异手段，让他觉得只要和聂天一道儿，他的安全会大幅度地提升。

When Nie Tian was fighting against Jia Peng, the various strange methods that he had used made Zheng Bin feel that his safety would greatly increase as long as he was together with Nie Tian.

他已暗暗下定决心，天门内，他要尽可能和聂天绑在一块儿。

He was already determined. He would do his best to stick together with Nie Tian within the Heavenly Gate.

“也好。”聂天顺势而起。

“That’s fine.” Nie Tian stood up in passing.

通过这两日的修炼，他炎灵诀已初入门径，身上的伤势也全部恢复了。

He was already at the beginning stages of cultivating the Flame Spirit Secret after these two days of cultivation. The injuries on his body had also healed fully.

此时的他，处于巅峰状态，对于那混乱磁场的威力，也有了极强的信心。

The current him was at his peak state. He also an an extremely high confidence in the strength of the chaotic magnetic field.

他也认为可以试着活动活动了。

He felt that he could try moving about.

两人意见达成一致后，就从他们一直不敢动的陨石离开，向临近的陨石而去。

After the duo had identical opinions, they started moving from the meteor that they had never dared to leave, towards the nearby meteor.

冰冷星河内，他们顺着一块陨石，搜索着，发现没有生命动向后，就向下一块临近的陨石而去。

Within the icy river of stars, they would go to a meteor to search for life. After they found no signals of life, they would head towards a nearby meteor.

时间匆匆，一眨眼，又过了三日。

Time hurriedly passed. Within the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

这三天，他们早已远离了他们曾经落足的那块陨石，但没有发现任何的生命迹象。

During these three days, they had already moved far away from the meteorite they were originally on. However, they didn’t find any signs of life.

他们所发现的，只是几具冰冷的尸体，那些尸体有玄雾宫的，也有鬼宗和血宗的，都被残忍杀害。

All they found was a few frozen corpses. There were corpses of people from the Black Mist Palace, the Ghost Sect, and the Blood Sect who were ruthlessly killed.

早就知道天门内血腥残酷的聂天，对那些尸体无动于衷，丝毫不受影响。

Having already known about the cruel slaughter in the Heavenly Gate, Nie Tian was indifferent and unaffected by the corpses.

郑彬因为知道贾鹏杀了他们宗门的师兄，所以见到那些尸体时，情绪也还算是镇定。

Zheng Bin knew that Jia Peng had killed his sect’s elder brothers. Because of this, he maintained a calm mind when seeing the corpses.

两人一边修炼着，一边小心翼翼地畅游与那些陨石上，没有目的地四处活动。

While the duo cultivated, they carefully travelled through the meteorites without any destination in mind.

这一天。

Today.

不时释放出精神意识，四处感知异常的聂天，突从前方察觉到一股浓郁的血腥气息。

Nie Tian had released his mental awareness every so often, which allowed him to sense any abnormalities near him. He suddenly detected a dense bloody aura in front of him.

眯着眼，他的精神意识如看不见的灵魂触手，仔细去感知。

As he squinted his eyes, his mental awareness became an invisible tentacle that carefully searched outwards.

他渐渐发现，在前面的大地之内，似埋藏着地网血线。

He gradually discovered the traces of the Earth Web’s blood strings underneath the ground in front of him.

“地网……”

“Earth Web…”

聂天停下脚步，皱眉看向前方一块块乱石散落的冰冷大地，示意郑彬也一并停住。

Nie Tian paused his steps. Furrowing his brows, he looked at the icy ground that was filled with scattered stones. He indicated for Zheng Bin to also stop.

“血宗的人？”郑彬微微变色。

“People from the Blood Sect?” Zheng Bin’s expression faintly changed.

聂天点头，指向前方那一块块乱石，道：“地底之中，埋藏着血线。”

Nie Tian nodded his head, pointing towards the scattered stones in front of him as he said: “There are blood strings buried underground.”

同为后天境初期，郑彬的精神意识不够凝聚，不能如他一般洞察到前方地底的异常。

Since they were both at the the early Houtian Realm, Zheng Bin’s mental awareness wasn’t as powerful as his. He was unable to clearly sense the abnormalities within the ground in front of them.

但他通过聂天这句话，就知道当年在青幻界时，的确是聂天注意到了地底的动静，知道了那血宗妖女在暗中施法。

However, through their earlier conversation, he knew that it was actually Nie Tian who discovered the underground movements while they were in the Green Illusion Realm, and that Nie Tian was the one who discovered Yu Tong secretly activating her technique. 

早已对聂天另眼相看的他，沉吟了一下，问道：“那该怎么办？我们……要不要退走？”

Having viewed Nie Tian in a new light, he muttered to himself for a moment before asking: “Then what should we do? We...should we retreat?”

在他们附近，还有更多巨大陨石，他们完全可以避开血宗的试炼者，去其它的陨石上继续探索。

There were even more enormous meteorites near them. If they wanted to, they could definitely escape from the trial takers of the Blood Sect and continue exploring other meteorites.

“血宗……”聂天暗暗思考着，也显得有些犹豫。

“The Blood Sect…” Nie Tian pondered inwardly. He was clearly hesitating.

可就在此时，他散逸八方的精神意识，已经察觉到有人在迅速接近。

However, the mental awareness that he spread out had already discovered that someone was rapidly approaching.

那人，他还无比的熟悉。

He was incomparably familiar with that person.

“虞彤！”他嘴角满溢苦涩。

“Yu Tong!” He had a pained expression.

他很清楚，那妖女有多么的仇恨他，只要一见到他，一定会第一时间动手，连多询问一句都不会。

He was very clear about how much Yu Tong hated him. She would immediately make a move once she saw him, without even saying anything beforehand.

“我们走。”他掉头就要离开。

“Let’s go.” Nie Tian turned his head, wanting to leave.

一听说是血宗的虞彤，郑彬也感到头痛，他也知道那女人的厉害。

Once he heard that it was the Blood Sect’s Yu Tong, Zheng Bin also had a headache. He also knew about the strength of that girl.

郑彬也赶紧随着聂天要速离此地。

Zheng Bin hurriedly followed Nie Tian to leave this place quickly.

“咻！”

“Xiu!”

一道猩红血光，陡然破空而来，那血光就在地网覆盖的极限范围内，猛地止住。

A scarlet blood light suddenly flew over. When it reached the extreme limit of the Earth Web, it suddenly stopped.

来人赫然就是虞彤。

The person who arrived was Yu Tong.

一身血衣的虞彤，就站在地网的边沿，显得极为谨慎小心。

She wore bloody clothes as she stood by the edge of the Earth Web, clearly cautious.

似乎……她也不敢轻易离开那片地网的笼罩之地。

As if...she didn’t dare to leave the area that the Earth Web covered.

“聂天！”

“Nie Tian!”

虞彤倏一停住，发现试图离开者竟然是聂天时，她瞬间就毛了。

When Yu Tong discovered that the escaping person was actually Nie Tian, she instantly turned nervous.

她的眼瞳，几乎一下子就充盈了血色，变得妖异而绚丽。

Her pupils were turned bloodshot in an instant, appearing demonic yet gorgeous.

“聂天……”

“Nie Tian…”

可就在此刻，血宗的封罗，也骤然显现而出。

However, the Blood Sect’s Feng Luo suddenly appeared.

“小彤，不要冲动！”眼看虞彤发现是聂天以后，突然就被激怒，他急忙阻止：“形势不同了！这里不是离天域，而我们离天域也即将遭遇大劫！从今以后，离天域的七宗要共患难，你和聂天之间的恩怨暂时放到一边！”

“Little Tong, don’t be impulsive!” After seeing Yu Tong become enraged due to Nie Tian’s appearance, he hastily stopped her: “The situation now is different! This isn’t the Heaven Leaving Domain, and our Heaven Leaving Domain is about to go through a huge calamity! From now on, the seven sects of the Heaven Leaving Domain are going to experience a tribulation together! You must temporarily put aside the grudges you have with Nie Tian!”

先天境初期的封罗，冒出来以后，脸色有些苍白，似耗费了太多的力量。

After the early Xiantian Realm Feng Luo appeared, his face was somewhat pale. He seemed to have exhausted too much of his energy.

“罗叔，我，我气不过！”虞彤咬着牙说道。

“Uncle Feng, I, I’m too angry!” Yu Tong clenched her teeth as she said.

“我明白。”封罗苦笑，也狠狠瞪了聂天一眼，想起了在赤炎山脉时，他对虞彤所做的卑鄙事，“这小子的确讨人厌，等离天域的这一劫过了，我会安排你和他光明正大再战一场。但现在……我们尽量不要离开，也最好不要在聂天身上多浪费一丝力量！”

“I understand.” Feng Luo bitterly laughed. He fiercely glared at Nie Tian, when he thought about the despicable deeds that Nie Tian had done to Yu Tong when they were in the Scarlet Flame Mountain Range, “This brat truly deserves to be hated. After the Heaven Leaving Domain’s calamity, I will arrange for you to have a fair fight with him. However...we shouldn’t leave this place now, and we shouldn’t waste any energy on Nie Tian!”

虞彤妖异的血瞳，死死瞪着聂天，却在封罗的劝说下，渐渐冷静下来。

Yu Tong’s demonic eyes were glaring at Nie Tian. However, she gradually calmed down through Feng Luo’s advice.

而已经在撤离的聂天，听到封罗的那番话以后，反而倏地停下。

Nie Tian, who was already escaping, suddenly stopped after hearing Feng Luo’s words.

“你干嘛？”郑彬焦急道。

“What are you doing?” Zheng Bin anxiously said.

只是一个虞彤，就让他感到头痛了，再加上先天境初期的封罗，他只想有多远逃多远。

Yu Tong alone already gave him have a headache. If you added Feng Luo who was at the early Xiantian Realm, his only thought was to run away. 

如果是以前，他看到聂天这么犯傻胡来，肯定就放弃聂天独自逃生了。

In the past, he would’ve thought that Nie Tian was foolishly causing trouble. He would definitely have abandoned Nie Tian to escape by himself.

可现在，他虽然满头雾水，可还是与聂天一样留了下来。

However, he still decided to stay behind with Nie Tian, although he was confused.

“封罗前辈说的对。”聂天转过身来，大声冲着封罗和虞彤讲话，“以前七宗势成水火，遇到后相互厮杀理所当然。但现在不同了，离天域会被妖魔入侵，等我们回去以后，离天域可能已经是妖魔的乐土。”

“What Senior Feng Luo said is correct.” Nie Tian turned around and spoke loudly to Feng Luo and Yu Tong, “In the past, the seven sects were like fire and water. It was natural that we started killing each other whenever we met. However, it’s different now. The Heaven Leaving Domain will be invaded by demons. When we return, the Heaven Leaving Domain might already have turned into the playground of the demons.”

“即使七宗合力驱逐了妖魔，恐怕也元气大伤，会被外域的那些野心之辈攻陷。”

“Even though the seven sects might be able to fight off the demons by joining forces, I’m afraid that their strength will definitely have decreased. When that happens, they would be attacked by those scheming people from the other domains.”

“这还是离天域。”

“This is still the Heaven Leaving Domain.”

“天门之内，如今还有如贾鹏一般的外域来人，正在四处屠杀我们。”

“There are other people from the outer domains, like Jia Peng, that are inside the Heavenly Gate, killing the people from the Heaven Leaving Domain.”

“我们七宗已被如此对待，如果还继续内战下去，岂不是让别人笑话？”

“Our seven sects have already been treated like this. If we continue this civil war, won’t everyone else just laugh at us?”

这般说着，他停住的身子，竟缓缓朝着封罗和虞彤而去。

As he said that, he slowly walked towards Feng Luo and Yu Tong.

郑彬若有所思，仔细想了想，也随着聂天走向了封罗。

Zheng Bin seemed to ponder for a while before following Nie Tian.

那封罗，哼了一声，冷冷看向聂天，“你虽然让我讨厌，但至少拧得清道理。但你们太弱了，根本不够资格和我们一起，我念在大家都是离天域的七宗者，就放你们一马，你们自生自灭去吧。”

Feng Luo humped as he coldly looked at Nie Tian, “Although I dislike you, at least you’ve got some logic. However, you two are too weak. You don’t have the qualifications to be with us. Because we all came from the Heaven Leaving Domain, I’ll let you off. You can go fend for yourselves, whether you die or not.”

他挥挥手，驱逐聂天和郑彬离开。

He waved his hand, chasing Nie Tian and Zheng Bin away.

“封罗前辈，我们两人杀了坤罗域的贾鹏！”郑彬扬声高呼，“杀了贾鹏的我们，有没有资格和你们一起？”

“Senior Feng Luo, we’ve killed the Kun Luo Domain’s Jia Peng!” Zheng Bin shouted loudly, “By killing Jia Peng, do we have the qualifications to be with you?”

“杀了贾鹏？”封罗一脸讥笑，“你在做梦吧？”

“Killed Jia Peng?” Feng Luo sneered, “Are you dreaming?”

郑彬高高扬起手，将手背上的七个光点，向封罗展示，“你自己看！”

Zheng Bin raised his hand as he revealed the seven light dots on his hand to Feng Luo, “Look for yourself!”

封罗眯着眼仔细打量了一下，终于被勾起了兴致，“你们真杀了贾鹏？”

Feng Luo narrowed his eyes as he carefully looked at Zheng Bin. His interest was finally piqued, “Did you guys really kill Jia Peng?”

“千真万确！”郑彬道。

“Absolutely!” Zheng Bin said.

封罗犹豫了一下，低声劝说了虞彤两句，招招手，道：“过来吧，我需要你们给出一个合理的解释，让我知道单凭你们两个小子，是如何斩杀先天境中期修为的贾鹏的！”

Feng Luo hesitated for a moment. Persuading Yu Tong with a low voice, he beckoned for them to come over as he said: “Come over then. I need you to give me a rational explanation. Let me know how you brats managed to kill Jia Peng, who had a cultivation of the middle Xiantian Realm, with your strength!”

“好！”郑彬接话。

“Okay!” Zheng Bin replied.

聂天也走了过去。

Nie Tian also walked over.
