418: Bone blossom 418: Bone blossom Editor: Exodus Tales  玄女的影子消失了,夕阳斜照,树叶被风吹得轻响.

Now, the mystic lady’s faint figure has been replaced with mighty trees basking under the golden ray of sunlight.

Its leaves rustles as the breeze past by.

陆明舒有一种,从另一个世界回到现实的感觉.似乎刚才所见都是虚幻的,只是一场梦而已.

This makes Lu Mingshu felt like she had returned from her imaginations to reality.

What just happened felt like a dream.

她定了定神,抬起视线.

She rubbed her eyes and looked around her.

此处看起来很平常,就是九瑶山一个很普通的地方,就是树木高大些,周围安静些.但仔细看去,就会发现,周围并不寻常.

The forest is similar to Nine Jade Mountain.

Just that it’s tree are larger and it’s silent, unlike the Nine Jade Mountain which is inhabited by a variety of living creatures.

But when Lu Mingshu took a closer look, she’s in utter shock.

比如,那些奇形怪状的草木,遍布的怪石深坑,一看就知道,是强大修者大战后的遗迹.

The forest is filled with peculiar looking plants, and there are strange-looking rocks and pits all around the place.

This place no other than the battleground of some strong cultivators.

她跳进深坑,里面散落着不少白骨.这些白骨大部分雪白干净,好似特别处理过一般.另有部分颜色特殊,一看就是练了特别的功法.

She jumped into one of the pits which has been filled with bones.

Most of the bones are pure white and flawless as if they had been specially taken care off.

However, there are some in strange colours, symbolising the different cultivation they have trained in.

强大修者的遗骨,本身价值极高,有些特殊的法器,需要此等白骨炼制.越是修为高,越是贵重,她不知这几位的真实修为,但能肯定,已经超过了本界的洞虚.如果拿到天轮里,估计能换很多积分.

Generally, A powerful cultivator’s bones cost an arm as it’s the ingredient to some special weapons.

As the level of cultivator got higher, the more valuable it is.

She’s unknown if how many of the cultivators here, who have passed on trained in the way as her world did.

But what she could tell is that they are definitely much stronger than the void realm in her world, and it would gain her tons of accumulated points if she took it back to the heavenly wheel.

不过,她现在关注的不是这个.

However, that’s not her main focus.

只见这些白骨上,抽出一根根透明的细茎叶,末端长着小花.花朵极小,只有指头大,因为白骨颜色的不同,花的颜色也不同.

If one were to take a close look, slim and translucent stems could be seen growing out from the bones.

Some have blossomed, but the flower is only as big as one’s thumb and varies with the colour of the bone.

骨生花,一种生于异骨之上的奇物.这异骨必须是强大魔兽,灵兽,又或者修者的遗骨.且生长之处必须有阳光雨水,又封闭聚气.

The bone blossom only grows from peculiar bone, which is left behind by beast or cultivators with high cultivation.

It requires the remains to be left at a humid place that has access to sunlight and raindrops for many years.

And even if the conditions are fulfilled, it might not grow.

之前郝道长开口要骨生花,陆明舒一听就放弃了.这骨生花的生长要求太高,本界可能都没有足够修为的遗骨供它生长.

Back then when she first heard about this from Daoist priest Hao, Lu Mingshu has already been discouraged.

The criteria are almost impossible to be fulfilled, as peculiar bone might not even exist in Lu Mingshu’s world.

正好,这些围攻玄女的修者,个个实力强大,偏偏又在九瑶山留下骸骨.

Thankfully, the mystic lady’s opponents are all powerful cultivators, leaving their remains deep in the Nine Jade Mountain.

陆明舒回想自己查到的骨生花的资料,取出一个白玉制成的盒子,套上雪蚕丝制成的手套,小心地将之整根剥下.

Recalling the research she had done on the bone blossom, she took out a box made with white jade and put on a pair of gloves made out of silk.

She then slowly pluck the whole flower done from the peculiar bone.

这种奇物,不能沾手,一沾手,就会枯萎.必须用没有属性的玉石来盛放,才能保持它的纯粹,留住药性.

If one touches the flower with his or her bare hands, it would wither immediately.

It must also be stored in a box made out of pure white jade to preserve its freshness and effectiveness.

摘满一小盒,陆明舒火速进了天轮,找到守在易市的青木.

After the box is filled, Lu Mingshu got into the heavenly wheel at the speed of lighting, and successfully found Qingmu in no time.”   “青木,郝道长有消息吗?” “Qingmu, where’s Daoist Priest Hao?”   “啊,姑娘这是找到郝道长需要的东西了?他留过话,如果有消息马上通知他.” “Ah, did Miss manage to find what he needs?

I’ll contact him right now.

As he had informed me to do so if I have any news from you.”   这事对郝道长来说一样紧急,他要救的人命在旦夕,哪怕机会渺茫,有一丝希望也要抓住.

Not only it is a pressing matter to Lu Mingshu, but it is also can pressing the matter to Daoist priest Hao, as the person he’s going to save does not have much time left.

No matter how slim the chances are, none of them is willing to give up.

没多久,郝道长出现了.他第一句话便是:”东西呢?” Within no time, Daoist priest Hao arrived.

“Where is it?”   陆明舒拿出盒子:”您看,这可是骨生花?” “Please take a look if this is what you’re looking for.”   郝道长打开一看,吐出一口气,露出笑来:”不错,就是骨生花.” Daoist priest Hao opened up the box impatiently.

After examining the flowers, he heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

“Yes, this is it.”   “这些可够?” “Is it enough?”   “够了.”放下心中大石,郝道长轻松不少,说道,”还以为你会拿冬夏石来交易,没想到竟弄到了骨生花.如此甚好,若是冬夏石,需要很长时间温养,骨生花省事不少.” “Yeah.” After letting off the weight on his mind, Daoist Priest Hao became more cheerful and relaxed.

“I initially thought that you would come with the winter-summer stone, but luckily is the bone blossom.

If it’s the winter-summer stone, I will still need to pyretic nourish it but I could just make use of the flowers.” l  陆明舒也笑,师父的经脉,总算是有救了.

Smiles could be seen on Lu Mingshu’s face too.

She would be finally able to cure her master’s meridians.

郝道长拿出早就准备好的盒子:”这里是我炼制的成品,药方也在里面,你验一验.” Daoist priest Hao than took out a box and passed it to Lu Mingshu.

“The product I made, and the formula is inside too.

Please do a check.”   事关师父的大事,陆明舒不敢轻忽.开了药盒一看,这药却是玄黑色的,透着一股又香又臭的古怪气息.她分辨不出来是好是坏,便拿了那张药方细看.

Regarding her master, Lu Mingshu dare not be careless.

She opened up the box carefully, which revealed an onyx black pill.

It smells weird, and Lu Mingshu could not tell if it’s good or bad.

药理她都通,仔细琢磨一番,并没有差错,便收了起来.

She read the formula sheet carefully and only kept it when she has done a double check that everything is right.

“多谢了.” “Thank you very much.”   郝道长笑容满面,摆手道:”各取所需而已.对了,赠你一个秘诀,冬夏石液对修复有奇效,你在服用此药之前,先让病人服用冬夏石液,化开药性,沿着经脉走上一遍.等药性完全散发,再行服药,效果好上不少.” “Nah, thank you too.” Daoist priest Hao smiled widely, eyes crinkling.

“By the way, I suggest that you could let the patient take a few sips of the winter-summer stone liquid.

Wait for his body to absorb the liquid fully than let him take this pill down.

It would show significantly better results.”   陆明舒郑重谢了他.

Lu Mingshu thank him once again.

郝道长心急,马上告辞离去.

“Good luck and goodbye.” Being in a rush, Daoist priest Hao left immediately.

从天轮出来,也没见玄女出现,陆明舒便将剩下的骨生花一并取下,又采了满满一盒.采完后,索性把附近认得不认得的奇花异草连根拔起,放进药囊,准备移植回去——此处地气特殊,这些大能修者陨落,不知道逸出多少的精气,才能孕育出这些奇物,只怕本界都没处找去,哪怕自己用不上,拿到天轮里也能换得不少宝物.

Lu Mingshu exit the heavenly wheel.

She looked around in search for the mystic lady but she was nowhere to be seen.

Lu Mingshu than went to collect more bone blossoms and peculiar plants around, with the means to take it back to nurture and reproduce them.

Due to being home to a large number of fallen cultivators, the conditions in this forest is idiosyncratic, with the amount of energy it has accumulated over the years.

The plants growing here might be impossible for her to find it in the outside world.

~Even if it came into no use for me, I could exchange it in the heavenly wheel too.~   夕阳落下,天黑了下来.由于磁光的存在,林中仍然光亮,足以照明.

The sun has already set, and the sky is now pitch black, with streams of colours, the magneto-optic lights, dancing in the sky so brightly that it lit up the whole forest.

等陆明舒将那些白骨全部垒好,玄女的虚影再度出现.

When Lu Mingshu put the bones back in place, the mystic lady’s figure reappeared in front of her eyes once again.

“好了?” “Done?”   “玄女前辈,”她借机问,”您的遗骨不在此处吧?” “Senior mystic lady’s remains aren’t here, am I right?”   不知道是不是错觉,玄女好像笑了笑:”你倒是一丝一毫都不浪费.无妨,这些都拿去吧.” It may be Lu Mingshu’s illusion, but the Mystic Lady seems to be smiling.

“You’re sure how to make use of all that’s here.

Whatever, it doesn’t matter.

Take it.”   “谢前辈.” “Thank you senior.”   玄女微微点头:”你坐下.” “Sit, now.” Mystic lady nodded and commanded Lu Mingshu.

陆明舒寻了个角落坐好.

Lu Mingshu found and corner and plopped down to the floor.

玄女指尖一点,光芒闪动,一道清光飞入陆明舒的眉心.

Mystic lady raised her hands once again, and Lu Mingshu could see a small flicker of light on her fingertips, before entering her forehead.

刹那间,仿佛有无数的东西涌入她的脑海中,一副副残破的画面飞快地闪过,不知道是不是玄女破碎的记忆.这些画面很模糊,只留下淡淡的印象,随后,陆明舒沉入了另一个世界.

The next second, she felt that her head was about to burst.

Many different images flashed past her mind, but none of it is completed and it was all blurry.

~Could it be the mystic lady’s memories?~ “Plopped!” Lu Mingshu was then landed in another world.

周遭都是剑气,各种不同的剑气,她身处其中,不停地被攻击,甚至斩为两半.

There’s sword energy all around, different sword energy.

And Lu Mingshu is standing right in the middle, being attack continuously and even slashed into half.

在这个世界里,她是一种纯精神的存在,仍然能感受到痛苦,但没有形体,也不会受伤.

Even though she’s not physically transported to the world, she could still feel the pain, just that she would not be injured.

一开始,她面对这些剑气无所适从,根本无法反抗,只能一次次地被斩.

At the start, she has absolutely no way to retort, but to be slashed continuously.

十次,百次,千次…

Ten times, hundred, and a thousand.

大概万余次后,她慢慢摸到剑气的玄妙之处,开始适应,模拟…

A million times have passed, and she could slowly get used to the environment.

初时,她模拟出来的剑气不堪一击,连碰都碰不得.后来,逐渐强化,能够反击一二.

But her sword energy is nowhere near the sword energies around.

Slowly, she start to be able to counter-attack.

习剑十几年,陆明舒从来不知道,原来这世间的剑术可以达到这样的程度.

Lu Mingshu have cultivated for years, but this is the first time she have seen something as powerful as this.

她慢慢忘记了疼痛,忘记了时间,沉醉其中.

Slowly, she forgot about the pain and got immersed in the world.

不知道过了多久,一声叹息响起.

It’s unknown how long have passed, but she head a sighed rang in her head.

她突然发现,自己已经能在剑气攻击中进退自如.不管攻来的是何等剑气,心念一转,便能想出应对之法,更能模拟出相应的剑气.

It then dawned on Lu Mingshu that she has been able to dogde the sword energies and produce whatever type of sword energy she wished just by thinking of it.

“难怪九阶天轮,你都能解开.”玄女的声音响起,陆明舒的意识缓缓从剑气幻景中退出,”我自负聪明,但论起计算能力,比你仍然不如.” “Good job.No wonder you could solve the rank nine heavenly wheels” The mystic lady’s voice rang and Lu Mingshu is being pulled out from the illusion.

“I’m smart and I rarely compliment people.

But you’re definitely good in math.”   “前辈谬赞.”陆明舒并没有得意之色,紧接着问,”前辈,我能否回到刚才的剑气世界中?” “Thank you, senior.

Senior, may I know if I would be able to go back to where I just went?”   玄女顿了顿,似乎没想到她会这么问,答道:”可以.这是我的幻景,已留在你的识海中.你可以将之注入天轮,让天轮帮你维系下去.” The mystic lady paused.

“You can.

But it’s my illusion.

So you would have to insert it in the heavenly wheel if you want to do so.”
