A Thought Through Eternity-Chapter 155 - Breaking the First Shackle of Life

Chapter 155 - Breaking the First Shackle of Life - xin

第四道龙卷风下，是一片平原，此刻平原上有一座大阵，散出璀璨之光，防护四方的同时，在这阵法中，盘膝坐着一个凝气弟子。

Under the fourth gust of tornado was a plateau. At this moment, on this plateau was a formation array that was glowing resplendently, protecting its surroundings. At the same time, a Qi Condensation disciple sat within the formation array.

此人穿着玄溪宗的长袍，是个青年，样子冷峻，吐纳时全身上下有大量符文游走，这些符文每一个都蕴含着毁灭之力，此刻凝聚连接在了一起，如同化作了链条，急速环绕。

This person wore a Mystic Creek Sect’s robe; it was a teenager - with cold and aloof features, everytime he took a breath, a huge number of runes will swim up and down his entire body. Every single one of those runes contained a destructive force; and at this moment, each rune connected together to form a chain that rapidly spiralled around the youth.

更是在这青年四周，虚无扭曲，有阵阵灭绝之力散开，那是……泯灭绝生功的表现！

The space around the teenager immediately distorted as a destructive force pulsated from him, that was…...the distinguishing mark of the Existence Devoid Techinique!

这青年，正是玄溪宗第一天骄，三千年来，玄溪宗第一个修成了泯灭绝生功的九岛，这泯灭之威，可灭绝一切生命，所过之处，一切消散，更可凝聚泯灭之纹，甚至在资料里有记录，他曾与凡道筑基一战，居然不相上下。

This teenager was the number one Heaven’s Chosen of the Mystic Creek Sect. For three thousand years, he was, Jiu Dao, Mystic Creek Sect’s first person to have mastered the Existence Devoid Technique; this power of devoid could cease all forms of life, causing everything to vanish. He could even form the Tattoo of Devoid, and the information in his profile even recorded that he once fought with a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to a draw.

“鬼牙，之前一战，不分胜负，等我筑基后，再与你一战，定要将你这灵溪宗第一天骄，彻底击杀！”九岛眼中杀意一闪，深吸口气，双手掐诀猛的一挥，立刻他体内漩涡形成的吸力，凝聚的龙卷风，与苍穹连接，使得天空上，出现了一个巨大的漩涡。

“Gui Ya, a victor has not yet been determined from our previous match. After I have reached Foundation Establishment, I shall fight you once more. The number one Heaven’s Chosen of Spirit Creek Sect, I will definitely annihilate you!” Killing intent flashed across the eyes of Jiu Dao as he took in a deep breath. With the gesturing of his hands, the whirlpool in his body instantly condensed into a tornado and connected with the sky above, causing an even bigger whirlpool to form in the sky.

轰轰转动时，大量的地脉之气，骤然涌来。

As it spun in the sky, large amounts of Earth Pulse Qi rushed rapidly towards the whirlpool.

这一刻，苍穹四大漩涡，在四个不同的方向，各领风骚，平分陨剑世界。

At this moment, the four whirlpools in the sky were at four different directions, each seemingly having taken their positions and divided the Meteoric Sword World equally between them.

陨剑世界的其他四宗弟子，一个个更为焦急，眼看已有四人处于筑基之中，眼看这片世界的地脉之气正不断的减少，他们知道地脉之气有数，知道自己若再不抓紧时间，将会筑基无望，只能成为绿叶，去衬托别人。

The other disciples of the four sects in the Meteoric Sword World all became more anxious. Seeing that four people have already sarted their Foundation Establishment process and that this world’s Earth Pulse Qi were continuously getting lesser; they knew that the amount of Earth Pulse Qi was limited, and if they did not start to hurry up, there would no longer be any chance to become a Foundation Establishment cultivator - they could only become like green leaves on a tree and depend on other people.

杀戮更为凶残，一时之间，整个陨剑世界，死亡更多。

The killing got more intense, and in no time, in the entire Meteoric Sword World, the number of deaths increased.

很快的，在这所有人都发狂红眼时，白小纯所在的湖泊，似要炸开，传出巨响惊天的瞬间，他的第三轮潮汐结束。

All of a sudden, just when everyone had their eyes red from the madness, the lake where Bai Xiaochun was at, sent out a loud earth-shattering boom as if it had just exploded. At that instant, Bai Xiaochun’s third tide had ended.

苍穹上，那条巨龙咆哮，湖泊内，白小纯体内的第二层灵海上方，赫然出现了第三层更为庞大的灵海。

In the sky, that giant dragon roared loudly. Within the lake, inside Bai Xiaochun’s body, above the second layer of his spirit sea, a third and even bigger spirit sea suddenly appeared.

“龙力结束，现在是象力！”白小纯呼吸急促，眼中赤红，低吼一声，他身体外赫然幻化出了一尊巨象，与他的身体重叠，向着大地狠狠一踏。

“This is the end of Dragon strength, now it’s time for the Elephant strength!” Bai Xiaochun’s breath hastened as his eyes turned red. With a deep growl, a giant elephant seemingly materialised outside his body. The elephant image overlapped with Bai Xiaochun’s body and stomped ferociously upon the ground.

轰！

Hong!

白小纯体内的第四个漩涡，蓦然出现，比之前三层漩涡更惊人，与此同时，苍穹上，在之前三层漩涡平静后，在这三层漩涡上方，赫然出现了第四层庞大的漩涡！

Instantly, the fourth whirlpool appeared within Bai Xiaochun’s body; it was more shocking than the previous three layers of whirlpool. At the same time, in the sky, after the calmness of the previous three whirlpools, an even bigger fourth layer of whirlpool appeared above these three layers!

这漩涡内，巨象之影清晰无比，似在咆哮，引动漩涡急速转动。

Within the whirlpool, the shadow of a huge elephant could be clearly seen, as if it was roaring loudly, causing the entire whirlpool to spin rapidly.

一个时辰后，方林紧随其后，他的第四层潮汐漩涡，也骤然出现，而宋缺与九岛，此刻第三轮潮汐快要结束，在又过去了一个时辰后，一样凝聚出了第四轮潮汐！

Two hours later, Fang Lin followed closely and his fourth tide whirlpool also appeared. As for Song Que and Jiu Dao, their third tide were also close to finishing at this instant. After another two hours, both of them also condensed their fourth tide!

尤其是宋缺，更是惊艳绝伦，第四轮潮汐内，那巨大的面孔眉心上，出现了一个血月之影，吸收的速度远超其他几人，格外明显。

Especially for Song Que, his whirlpool was extremely shocking, within the fourth tide, a blood moon shadow appeared on the forehead center of that huge face, causing an obvious increase in suction speed that exceeded that rest.

“这宋缺，他才四轮潮汐，居然就达到了这么恐怖的吸力！”

“This Song Que, he is only at the fourth tide, but he has already reached such a terrifying suction force!”

“该死的，莫非他真的是要效仿无极子，要去地脉巅峰，九次潮汐！”

“Goddamit, don’t tell me he really wants to imitate the Boundless One and go for the peak of Earth Pulse and nine tides!”

“不好，一旦出现了八次潮汐者，那么吸收地脉之气庞大，会让其他人更难成功，必须要快些凝聚地脉气引啊！”

“This is bad, once an eighth tide cultivator appears, then the amount of Earth Pulse Qi sucked away will be too great, making it hard for anyone else to succeed. We must quickly condense the Earth Pulse Qi!”

就在这所有人无比焦急时，突然的，在白小纯从开始筑基直至现在，一共十个时辰后，苍穹中……出现了第五道龙卷风！

Just when everyone was fraught with anxiety, all of the sudden, from the moment Bai Xiaochun started his Foundation Establishment until now - a total of twenty hours - in the sky…...a fifth tornado appeared!

轰轰轰！

Hong hong hong!

这第五道龙卷风在与苍穹碰触的瞬间，扩散开来，形成了漩涡，漩涡下，有一片浓密的黑雾，雾气内，正是鬼牙。

In the instant where the fifth tornado made contact with the sky, it expanded and formed a whirlpool. Under a whirlpool, a dense black mist formed, and within the mist, was Gui Ya.

五个漩涡在苍穹旋转，让所有人仰望，时间流逝，鬼牙的身份，在不久后，在第一轮与第二轮潮汐都结束后，当天空上第三轮潮汐内，出现了一尊巨大的山鬼时，立刻被人认出。

Five whirlpools spun in the sky, causing everyone else to look up to it. As time passed, Gui Ya’s identity was recognised not long after the first and second tide ended - when the third tide had appeared in the sky and a huge mountain ghost had appeared within it.

“鬼牙！灵溪宗鬼牙！”

“Gui Ya! Spirit Creek Sect’s Gui Ya!”

“他修行的是山鬼乱神法！”

“He is cultivating the Mountain Ghost Divine Confusion Technique”

“白小纯，方林，宋缺，九岛，鬼牙！”

“Bai Xiaochun, Fang Lin, Song Que, Jiu Dao, Gui Ya!”

至此，四宗众修，五大巨擘，分庭抗立！他们，都可以算是第一批筑基者！

From here on, the cultivators of the four sects, the five great pillars, everyone had to take a side! Those five could be considered the first batch of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

白小纯最快，第四轮潮汐已进行小半，方林其次，第四轮潮汐比白小纯慢了一个时辰，宋缺与九岛再次，比白小纯慢了两个时辰。

Bai Xiaochun was the fastest, the fourth tide had already progressed halfway, followed by Fang Lin, whose fourth tide was slower by two hours, followed by Song Que and Jiu Dao, who were slower than Bai Xiaochun by four hours.

最后则是鬼牙，慢了十个时辰！

At the last was Gui Ya, who was slower by twenty hours!

此刻的白小纯，体内第四层漩涡不断转动，吸收大量地脉之气，巨象之力全面爆发，推动他的肉身，不断地冲击……生命五大桎梏中的第一层桎梏。

At this moment, the fourth layer of whirlpool in Bai Xiaochun’s body continuously spun, sucking in large amounts of Earth Pulse Qi. The strength of the huge elephant was unleashed to the fullest extent and constantly pushed his physical body to its limits, constantly impacting against…….the first shackle of the Five greatest Shackles of Life.

每一次轰击，都会让他的身体颤抖，原本别人修行这龙象化海经，到了极致就是触摸桎梏，可白小纯这里，因不死长生功的存在，使得他之前就到了碰触桎梏的程度，如此一来，眼下的冲击，就是去……突破！

After every impact, his entire body would tremble. Originally, when other people had cultivated this Dragon Elephant Ocean Transforming Scripture to the extreme, they would be able to feel the shackle. But for Bai Xiaochun, because of his Undying Longevity Techinique, he was able to touch the shackle long ago. As such, the impact he was experiencing right now, was to…...break through!

突破第一层桎梏！

Break through the first layer of shackles!

“借助大成的象力，借助地脉之气，在这第四轮潮汐中，突破生命第一层桎梏！”白小纯眼睛赤红，低吼一声，再次冲击。

“Borrowing the strength of the elephant, borrowing the Earth Pulse Qi, at this fourth tide, I shall break through the first shackle of Life!” Bai Xiaochun’s eyes were blood red; with a deep growl, he once again impacted against the shackle.

他脑海中回荡天雷之音，一次比一次更强的冲击，使得他全身如要碎裂，可还是坚持，直至过去了数个时辰，当这第四轮潮汐所需的时间，只剩下最后四个时辰时，白小纯体内引来的潮汐之力，冲击更为狂暴。

Roars of lightning and thunder crashed and echoed throughout his consciousness, the impact got stronger and stronger each time, causing his entire body to feel as if it was going to break any time. But Bai Xiaochun still persevered, until countless of hours later, when the amount of time required for the fourth tide was only left with eight hours, the power of the tide within Bai Xiaochun’s body impacted even more violently.

轰轰轰。

Hong hong hong.

他的嘴角溢出鲜血，他的身体出现了裂缝，生命第一层桎梏的冲击，比白小纯想象中艰难太多，哪怕他如今是借助这磅礴的地脉之气化作的潮汐，也依旧尝试了千百次，还是无法突破。

Fresh blood seeped out from the corners of his mouth, as cracks appeared throughout his body. The impact against the first shackle of Life was harder than Bai Xiaochun had expected; even though he was already borrowing the abundant Earth Pulse Qi to transform into tides, and tried a hundred and thousand times, he was still unable to make the break through.

这种借助地脉之气去突破生命第一层桎梏的机缘，是万载难逢的事情，毕竟在这之前，没有人如白小纯这样，早早的就触摸到了桎梏。

This kind of opportunity to borrow the Earth Pulse Qi to break through the first shackle of Life only came once in a lifetime. After all, before this, no one had touched the shackle of life at such an early stage like Bai Xiaochun.

“一定可以突破！”白小纯咬牙，猛的一吸，立刻吸来更多的地脉之气，没有继续冲击，而是不断蓄势。

“I can definitely break through!” Bai Xiaochun gritted his teeth, and with a deep breath, he immediately sucked in even more Earth Pulse Qi; he didn’t continue to try for the impact, but continuously accumulated his Qi.

这种蓄势，直至积累了整四个时辰后，在这第四轮潮汐即将结束的刹那，白小纯眼中露出闪电般的精芒。

This accumulation lasted for an entire eight hours. Just when the fourth tide was about to end, a glint of light flashed within Bai Xiaochun’s eyes.

“给我破！”他大吼一声，体内积累四个时辰形成的恐怖潮汐，在体内直接爆开，轰鸣八方，扩散全身的瞬间，仿佛化作了一根巨木，而他的身体，则成为了壁障，这巨木正轰击壁障。

“Break for me!!” He roared loudly, the terrifying tide that had accumulated for eight hours exploded within his body, sending shockwaves throughout the surroundings. As the tide spread out throughout his body, it’s force had seemingly transformed into a block of giant wood, and his body, had become a wall; and this giant wood was now currently hitting against the wall.

一次，两次，三次……短短的时间，这一次又一次的轰击，使得壁障出现了碎裂，当最后一次，蕴含了所有第四轮潮汐之力的轰击落下时，壁障终于颤抖，咔咔声下，似要碎裂。

Once, twice, thrice…...in the span of a few moments, the impact happened one after another, causing cracks to appear on the wall. Upon the very last impact, containing all the power of the fourth tide, the wall finally trembled, and with cracking sounds, it seemed as if it was going to crumble.

也正是在这个时候，白小纯全身一颤，他有种强烈的感觉，他感受到了自己的身上，似乎存在了五座大山！

It was also at this time, when Bai Xiaochun’s entire body trembled, he had a strong feeling, a feeling that weighed upon his body, as if there were five great mountains sitting on top of him!

这五座山，根在身体内，出现在身体上，压的让人似喘不过气，可偏偏平时根本就无法感受，唯独在这一刻，极为清晰。

These five mountains have its roots within the body, as it appeared on top of Bai Xiaochun’s body, its pressuring presence made him breathless. One would normally not be able to experience such a feeling, it was only at this moment when it was crystal clear.

他有种强烈的冲动，想要轰开了五座山，想要让身体不再被压制！

Bai Xiaochun had a strong urge to blast away the five mountains, to let his body not be pressured no longer!

“这五座山，就是生命的五大桎梏！”白小纯仰天一吼，体内轰鸣之声惊天动地时，第一座山于体内的根，形成的桎梏，在这一刻，在这狂暴的潮汐之力下，骤然……崩溃！

“These five mountains must be the five great shackles of Life!” With a shout towards the sky, a loud crash resounded from within Bai Xiaochun’s body. The first mountain’s root within the body that formed that shackle, at this moment, under the violent power of the tide, suddenly…... crumbled!

崩溃的刹那，白小纯喷出鲜血，身体内所有经脉，所有血肉，全部在这一瞬好似要粉碎，又被重新凝聚。

In the instant when it crumbled, Bai Xiaochun spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. All the veins and flesh in this body had seeming exploded into pieces at this moment and formed back once more.

随着崩溃，他身体颤抖，一股超凡脱俗的气息，从他的血肉内滋生出来，涌入全身，那种感觉，仿佛这个世界在这一刻，变的不一样了。

Following the crumble, his entire body trembled as an aura of transcendence seeped out from his flesh and infused into his entire body. That feeling was as if his entire world, at that very moment, had changed completely.

似乎多出了一些颜色，似乎多出了一些神采，而最重要的感受，是他一下子觉得……身体似乎轻松了。

IT was as if there was more colour, more life, and more importantly, he felt instantly…...that his body was lighter.

仿佛原本身上背着五座看不见的大山，可在这一瞬，其中一座山……四分五裂的崩溃。

As if of the five great invisible mountains that he was carrying on his back, one of them had at this instant…...disintegrated.

生命第一层桎梏，骤然，突破！

The first shackle of Life, break through!

更是在突破的这一瞬，白小纯的肉身之力，疯狂的暴增起来，超越了凝气修士能具备的肉身极限，直接攀升到了肉身筑基的程度！

At the instant of the break through, Bai Xiaochun’s physical strength had increased explosively, exceeding the limits that a Qi Condensation cultivator could have and immediately reaching to that of an Foundation Establishment cultivator.

所有血肉，所有经脉，所有骨骼，全部都在这一刻，非凡。

All of his muscles, veins and bones, all of them at this moment, were extraordinary.

白小纯仰天长啸，啸声传出的瞬间，湖泊轰鸣，苍穹上属于他的第四层漩涡，缓缓静止，而第五层漩涡，却顺势而出！

Bai Xiaochun roared triumphantly into the air, the moment the sound left his lips, a loud boom came from the lake. In the sky, the fourth layer of whirlpool that belonged to him slowly came to a stop, as the fifth whirlpool appeared without hesitation.

这第五层漩涡内，赫然出现了一座崩溃的山！

Within the fifth layer of the whirlppol, was a scene of a crumbling mountain!

这第五次潮汐，不是龙象化海经引动，这座山，也不是龙象化海经功法形成，这是……白小纯在突破了生命第一层桎梏后，自然引发的，第五次潮汐！

The fifth tide was not brought forth by the Dragon Elephant Ocean Transforming Scripture, this mountain, was also not formed by the Dragon Elephant Ocean Transforming Scripture, this was…...after Bai Xiaochun had broken through the first shackle of Life, and naturally brought forth, the fifth tide!

与此同时，方林，宋缺，九岛，他们的第四轮潮汐，也到了尾声，也正是在这时候，鬼牙终于完成了前三轮潮汐，刚刚开启第四轮潮汐。

At the same time, Fang Lin, Song Que, Jiu Dao, their fourth tide were also close to its end. Similarly, Gui Ya had completed his third tide at this moment and just started on his fourth.

就在这时，陨剑世界内的四宗弟子，在这十多个时辰的杀戮与掠夺中，终于再次出现了新的凝聚地脉气引之修，成为了第二批。

Right at this moment, the disciples of the four sect in the Meteoric Sword World, after this twenty over hours of killing and fighting, a new group of cultivators had started condensing their Earth Pulse Qi, forming the second batch.

第二批的第一人，正是上官天佑，他形成了属于他的漩涡，几乎同一时间，许小山的漩涡，一样出现在了苍穹中。

The first person of the second batch was Shangguan Tianyou, he formed a whirlpool belonging to him; at the same time, Xu Xiaoshan’s whirlpool also appeared in the sky.

随后之人，竟是……北寒烈！

Following this two, it was…...Bei Hanlie!

这被誉为此次天骄中的黑马的北寒烈，竟紧随上官天佑与许小山之后，形成了属于他的地脉漩涡，于苍穹中转动。

Bei Hanlie, who was labelled as the dark horse this time, had actually formed his own Earth Pulse whirlpool following Shangguan Tianyou and Xu Xiaoshan, and it spun along in the sky alongside those two.

最后出现的……是丹溪宗的赵柔！

The last to appear was…...Pill Creek Sect’s Zhao Rou!

她盘膝坐在一处山谷内，她的前方，赫然是七窍流血，面目全非，没有丝毫生机的公孙婉儿。

She said within a valley, and in front of her, was a bloody, disfigured Gongsun Wan-er with no trace of life left in her.

公孙婉儿已死，可她的尸体竟能动弹，虽僵硬，可却有阵阵毒雾从她体内散出，可以看到无数的毒虫蜈蚣，顺着她的七窍钻来钻去，而若有强者在这里，可以一眼看出，公孙婉儿的脑已空，里面赫然有一个人面蜘蛛，操控公孙婉儿的尸体！

Gongsun Wan-er had died, but her corpse was still able to move. Although it was stiff, but plumes of piosonous mist billowed out from her body. And one could see countless of pionousness bugs and centipedes were crawling in and out of her orfices. But if any expert were here, they would be able to tell with one look that Gongsun Wan’er’s head was already empty, in it was actually a human-faced spider that was controlling her corpse!

使得公孙婉儿，成为了一个毒人傀儡！

In other words, Gongsun Wan-er had become a piosonous puppet!

“公孙婉儿，你是我炼的第一个毒傀，不要着急，很快的，你哥哥将是第二个！”赵柔眼睛露出狠辣与仇恨，闭上双眼，天空漩涡轰轰转动。

“Gongsun Wan-er, you are the first Poison Puppet that I had refined. Don’t worry, very soon, you brother will be the second!” Zhao Rou’s eyes flashed with hatred and viciousness as she slowly closed her eyes, and the whirlpool above her head rotated in the sky.
