After the spirit force that came from the ball of spirit qi was drawn towards the spirit force whirlpool, it caused the speed of the spirit force whirlpool to suddenly increase by several folds.
这还是在没有借助于灵石修炼的情况下！
This was still under the situation where he hadn't used spirit stones to cultivate!
所有灵气球的灵力，一一纳入灵海，经过一番精炼以后，聂天以神识内检，立即发现最外层的灵气海，变得精纯而浑厚。
All of the spirit force within the ball of spirit qi merged with his spirit sea. After a round of refining, Nie Tian used his mental consciousness to examine it, and immediately noticed that the outermost layer of his spirit sea had become purer and thicker.
这一次的修炼，抵得上他通过灵石，没日没夜的数日苦修。
This round of cultivation was equivalent to several days and night of bitter cultivation using spirit stones.
如果，他能够一直待在这神秘异地，不断地聚拢天地灵气为球，将其力量炼入灵海，他相信他在后天境的突破速度，可以提升七八倍！
If he could keep staying in this mysterious land and continue to gather the Heaven and Earth spirit qi into balls and refine it into his spirit sea, he believed that the speed of his breakthroughs in the Houtian Realm would be raised seven or eight folds!
但，这也仅限于此地。
However, this was also limited to this place only.
一旦他离开了，回归凌云宗，以那儿的天地灵气修炼，他恐怕不会有太大的提升。
Once he left and returned to the Lingyun Sect, he might not have such great increases in his cultivation using the Heaven and Earth spirit qi over there to cultivate.
因为此处的灵气实在是太过于浓郁厚实。
Because the spirit qi of this place was simply too dense and strong.
"难道……这仅仅只是一种，只能在此地修炼的法门？而非和怒拳一样强悍的技艺？"聂天缓过神来，暗暗思考着。
"Could it be that...this is a type of method that can only be cultivated in this area? Is it not as strong a skill as the Angry Fist?" Nie Tian slowly realised something and secretly pondered over it.
接下来的一段时间，他一次次地借助于重新凝结的灵气球，不断地炼化灵海。
During the following period of time, he borrowed the power of the recondensed balls of spirit qi to continuously refine his spirit sea.
他的灵海，通过这种手段，以惊人的速度淬炼精化。
Via this kind of method, his spirit sea was tempered with an astonishing speed.
在他的感觉中，大概过了三五天的时间，他的灵海……就完成了第一次的精炼。
With his perception, he knew that roughly three to five days had passed. And his spirit sea...had completed the first refining.
那白雾茫茫的灵海，原本稀薄散乱的灵气，经过一轮的炼化以后，都变得浑厚了起来。
The white and foggy spirit sea that originally had a thin and dispersed spirit qi became dense after a round of refining.
可这时，他并没有感觉到，达到后天境初期的临界点，没有和当时在炼气九层巅峰，再难去拓展灵海，需要迫切提升境界，才能持续蜕变强大的体悟。
However, at this moment, he didn't feel that it was hard to expand his spirit sea after he had reached the critical point of the early Houtian Realm, as compared to that time when he was at the peak of the ninth Lianqi layer. He had to urgently increase his cultivation realm to continue transforming his strong experiences.
于是，他意识到，对于灵海的精炼，可能还需要继续重复下去。
Thus, he realised that he might have to continue repeating the refining of his spirit sea.
或许，再经历一两次对灵海的新一轮炼化，才能达到突破的瓶颈，然后借助于感悟和对灵力的全新认知，一举突破到后天境中期。
Perhaps, he might have to experience another one or two refinings of his spirit sesa before being able to reach the bottleneck of his breakthrough. After that, he could borrow his realisations and new understandings towards spirit force to breakthrough into the middle stages of the Houtian Realm in one go.
觉察到这一点后，他暂时停止了对灵海的淬炼，也停止了去感悟那种凝结灵气球的秘法。
After realising this, he temporarily stopped the refining of his spirit sea, and stopped comprehending the secrets to condensing the ball of spirit qi.
因为他觉得，他通过这段时间地不断凝结灵气球，已经掌握了这种奇特的技艺。
Because he felt that he had already grasped this unusual skill after this period of time where he continuously condensed the balls of spirit qi.
之后，他看向了第三个和第四个举向天空的巨臂。
After that, he looked towards the third and the fourth enormous arms that pointed towards the sky.
那两只如山般巨大的手臂，可能来自于同一个深埋于地底深处的擎天巨灵，那两只手掌心相对，五指弯曲，似缔结出一个神秘的封禁。
Those two arms which were as huge as mountains could have come from the same Djinn that was buried under the ground. The palms of those two hands were opposite each each other, and its five fingers were bent, as if it were making a mysterious seal.
在那两只巨手中央，磁场混乱，似扭曲了天地灵气的自然流向，形成了一种封印手诀。
The magnetic field in the middle of those two enormous arms were chaotic, as if it had twisted the natural flow of the Heaven and Earth spirit qi to form a kind of hand seal.
观察了一会儿，他慢慢尝试，也伸出了两只手，掌心相对，五指同样微微弯曲着，去缔结手印。
After observing it for a moment, he slowly tried it out. He also extended his hands out, and placed his palms opposite each other. His five fingers were also bent in the same way as he made the hand seal.
等摆出姿态了，他集中了精神，死死盯着那两只手。
When he adopted the correct posture, he concentrated his mind and stared fixedly at those two arms.
一种封禁的感悟，忽映入心头，他用心领悟。
A kind of forbidden/sealing understanding suddenly entered his mind, and he carefully comprehended it.
下一刻，他的灵海，血肉之力，包括他的精神力，都骤然涌动，三股不同气息的力量，似在一瞬间，汇入了他两只手。
In the next moment, his spirit sea, the power of his fleshy body, and the power of his consciousness all suddenly surged. The power of three different auras seemed to converge in his two hands in an instant.
在他的两只手中央，扭曲的磁场，一点点地形成。
A twisting magnetic field slowly formed in the middle of his two hands.
"精神力……"
"Mental power…"
他清晰地感觉到，他精神力的流失，比灵力和血肉之力的消耗，要多的多！
He clearly felt that the draining of his mental power was much more than the loss of his spirit force and the power of his fleshy body!
一缕缕来源于他的精神力，透过他的手指，渗入两手掌心的扭曲磁场。
Strands of mental power permeated into the twisting magnetic field in the middle of his two hands via his fingers.
那一霎，他忽然觉察到，以他为中心，周边的磁场瞬间变得扭曲混乱！
In that instant, he suddenly felt that the surrounding magnetic field around him instantly turned distorted and chaotic!
所有存在于附近的天地灵气，都无序地涌动着，就连空间……都似乎产生了一种塌陷般的异常波动。
All of the Heaven and Earth spirit qi that existed around him irregularly surged, and even space...seemed to have produced an abnormal sinking fluctuation.
身为施法者的他，无视那无序混乱的磁场，可他却隐隐感觉到，除他之外的生灵，一旦跨入其中，会立即被那种奇特的扭曲磁场给影响到。
As the person who used the technique, the irregular and chaotic magnetic field ignored him. However, he faintly felt that any living creatures besides him that entered the area would immediately be affected by the strange twisting magnetic field.
因为没有第二人存在，他也不清楚那磁场，到底能产生多大的威力。
Because there was no one there, he was unclear how much pressure could be generated by the magnetic field.
可他却知道，那磁场的形成，正在大量地消耗着他的精神力，还有一部分的灵力和血肉之力。
However, he knew that the formation of the magnetic field was currently expending a lot of his mental power, as well as a portion of his spirit force and the power of his fleshy body.
他感觉到，随着他精神力的渗透和流失，以他为中心形成的磁场，正一点点地往外蔓延。
He felt that, following the permeation and the draining of his mental power, the magnetic field that was formed around him slowly spread outwards.
"三米，四米，五米……"
"Three meters, four meters, five meters…"
他细细体悟，发现一旦他停止精神力的汇入，那逐渐向外延伸的磁场，就会立即中止。
He carefully comprehended, and discovered the magnetic field that was spreading outwards would immediately stop once he stopped the convergence of his mental power.
但，只要他持续地增添精神力，那扭曲的磁场，就会继续扩张。
However, as long as he continued increasing his mental power, that twisting magnetic field would continue expanding.
"十米！"
"Ten meters!"
当那磁场，以他为中心蔓延到十米时，他生出了一种眩昏感，立即知道精神力即将透支。
When the magnetic field around him had extended up to ten meters, he felt a kind of dizzy feeling, which immediately made him understand that his mental power was about to be used up.
他果断停下。
He decisively stopped.
不再持续增添精神力以后，那扩张到十米的混乱扭曲磁场，也旋即止住。
After he stopped adding mental power, that chaotic twisting magnetic field that had expanded to ten meters also stopped.
这时候，来源于他体内的灵力和血肉之力，依然在缓缓流失，似在持续掌控着那混乱磁场。
At this moment, the spirit force and fleshy body power that came from his body was still slowly draining, as if it was continuing to control that chaotic magnetic field.
看着附近天地灵气无序地狂暴涌动，连空间都仿佛被挤压着，产生一种塌陷感的磁场，他暗暗惊奇。
Looking at the nearby Heaven and Earth spirit qi frantically surge in an irregular manner, as well as the fact that even space seemed to be compressing, which formed a caving magnetic field, he was secretly surprised.
"这种法决，也需要时间来催动，还极其消耗精神力。可一旦形成，似乎只需要一部分的灵力和血肉之力，就能维持下来。"
"This kind of technique also requires time to activate it. Also, the drain on my mental power is extremely high. However, once it forms, it seems like it only needs a portion of my spirit force and my fleshy body power to continue maintaining it."
"只是，因为没有人进来，而我又完全不受影响，不知道它真正的威力如何。"
"Only, because no one can come in, added on to the fact that I am not completely affected by it, I don't know how strong its true power is."
"看来，需要以后在外面来实践了。但是在出去之前，定要好好感悟其奥妙，保证到了外界，依然可以将其施展出来。"
"It seems like I'll have to practice it in the outside in the future. However, before I leave, I must properly comprehend the subtleties of this technique, so that I can confirm that I can still use it in the outside."
想了一会儿，有点筋疲力尽的他，干脆停止了那手印的缔结。
After thinking for a while, he, who was somewhat exhausted, simply stopped the forming of those hand seals.
持续注入的灵力和血肉之力，随着他手诀的放弃，也不再流失向外。
Following the abandoning of his hand seals, the spirit force and fleshy power that had been continuously pouring out also stopped flowing outwards.
可那奇诡的扭曲磁场，并没有因此消失，还是依旧存在着。
However, that mysterious twisting magnetic field didn't disappear, and still existed.
只不过，因为没有后续力量的催动，那奇特的磁场，又缓缓地以他为中心收缩着，看样子会随着时间逐渐消失。
Only, because there wasn't any more energy supplied to it, the strange magnetic field surrounding him slowly shrunk, and it looked like it would gradually disappear following the passing of time.
"一，二……"
"One, two…"
他在心中默默计时，然后发现在过了大概三分钟以后，那形成的扭曲磁场，便彻底消散不见。
He silently counted in his mind, and noticed that the twisted magnetic field thoroughly dissipated after roughly three minutes.
磁场消失，一切恢复了正常，可他流失的精神力，灵力，还有血肉之力，并没有回归。
After the magnetic field disappeared, everything returned to normal. However, his drained mental power, spirit force, as well as fleshy power, didn't return.
精神力的巨大消耗，让聂天躺在了地上，眼睛都有些无神。
The enormous drain on his mental power made Nie Tian lie on the ground with slightly listless eyes.
他看着灰蒙蒙的天空，顿觉疲惫无比，只想沉沉睡去。
He looked at the dusky sky and suddenly felt an incomparable exhaustion, causing him to want to sleep.
灵力的消耗，可以通过灵石和修炼来补充，此地浓郁的天地灵气，更是补充灵力的绝佳补给。
The drain on his spirit force could be recovered via spirit stones and cultivation. The dense Heaven and Earth spirit qi in this area was even better at replenishing his drained spirit force.
血肉之力的流失，则是可以通过吞食灵兽的血肉，快速的恢复。
The loss of his fleshy power could be recovered via the eating of spirit beast's meat, which would rapidly recover it.
唯有精神力的损耗，短时间内，好像没有太好的办法。
Only the drain on his mental power seemed to not have any methods of recovering within a short time.
目前为止，精神力似乎只有通过沉睡，才能够一点点凝聚恢复。
Until now, his mental power seemed to only be able to slowly recover via sleeping.
本来也感觉到浓郁困意的他，没有其它更好的办法，也只能沉睡了。
He who was originally feeling a heavy sleepy feeling didn't have any better methods and could only sleep.
不知睡了多久，当他重新睁开眼以后，果然又感觉神采飞扬，精神奕奕。
After he slept for an unknown period of time, when he opened his eyes again, sure enough, he was full of energy and was in great spirits.
之后，他就在这神秘异地内，一次次地，去尝试感悟那来自两只巨臂的奇妙手诀，配合着自身的精神力，灵力和血肉之力，去缔结出那诡异的混乱扭曲磁场，欲图在离开前，彻底掌握其精妙。
After that, he stayed in this mysterious land to keep attempting to comprehend the mysterious hand signs made by the two enormous hands. He combined the mental power in his body, the spirit force, and his fleshy power to create that strange chaotic twisting magnetic field, attempting to thoroughly grasp its intricacies before leaving.
……
离天域。
Heaven Leaving Domain.
聂天已整整离开半月之久，在这半月内，七大宗门之间的争斗，早已经平息下来。
Nie Tian had already left for an entire half month. During this half month, the fights between the seven great sects had already calmed down.
从赤炎山脉地底挣脱的地炎兽，大闹了灵宝阁一番，在血宗、鬼宗和房晖三大玄境强者的拦截之下，强行冲入星空，就此消失不见。
The Earth Flame Beast that had broken free from the Scarlet Flame Mountain Range caused havoc in the Ling Bao Court. Under the interception of the Blood Sect and the Ghost Sect's Mysterious Realm experts and Fang Hui, it forcefully charged into the heavens and disappeared.
本来激战正酣的血宗、鬼宗和灵宝阁，因为地炎兽的大肆破坏，还有地心涌出的汹涌岩浆，不得不中止。
Because of the wanton destruction of the Earth Flame Beast as well as the magma spewed out of the earth's core, the Blood Sect, the Ghost Sect, and the Ling Bao Court, who were originally in a fierce fight, had no choice but to stop fighting.
之后，一道道火炎流星从天而降，分别落于七大势力所在的山门和周边势力范围。
After that, the flaming meteors descended from the sky, respectively landing in the entrances and surrounding of the seven great powers.
那些带有天门钥匙的陨石，还有狱府对血宗、鬼宗的约束，让血宗和鬼宗放弃了和灵宝阁厮杀到底。
Those meteors that carried the key to the Heavenly Gate, as well as the restrictions that the Prison Department placed on the Blood Sect and the Ghost Sect made them give up on fighting with the Ling Bao Court to the death.
在赤炎山脉爆发的血战，旋即中止，鬼宗和血宗急匆匆赶回宗门地，去夺取那些天门钥匙。
The bloody battle that erupted in the Scarlet Flame Mountain Range stopped shortly after. The Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect hurriedly rushed back to their sect areas to fight for those keys to the Heavenly Gate.
灵宝阁损失惨重，但还远远没有达到被灭宗的毁灭程度，灵宝阁重建宗门时，也开始收集烙印在天外陨石上的天门钥匙。
The Ling Bao Court suffered disastrous injuries, but it wasn't even close to reaching the point of sect extermination. When the Ling Bao Court was rebuilding the sect, they also started to collect the keys to the Heavenly Gate that were branded on those meteors.
侵入狱府的玄雾宫和灰谷，初始讨到了便宜，但在常森之妻孔芸回归以后，则是被狠狠修理了一番。
The Grey Valley and the Black Mist Palace which had invaded the Prison Department were at first 讨到了便宜. However, after the return of Chang Sen's wife, Kong Yi, they were violently fixed up.
若非常森的阻止，玄雾宫和灰谷前往狱府的那些强者，恐怕要死伤大半。
If not for Chang Sen's obstruction, over a half of the experts from the Black Mist Palace and the Grey Valley might have died while facing the experts from the Prison Department.
在玄雾宫和灰谷的炼气士，灰头丧脸地回归不久，狱府那边向各宗传话，天门……将在七日之后开启。
Not long after the Lianqi Warriors within the Black Mist Palace and the Grey Valley returned with dejected faces, the Prison Department spread the word to the various sects. The Heavenly Gate...would open seven days later.
不管通过什么途径，不管是来自于哪一个宗门，只要得到天门钥匙者，都可以踏入其中。
No matter what way you got it from, no matter what sect you came from, as long as you obtained the key to the Heavenly Gate, you can step into it.
七大宗门那些获得天门钥匙者，都纷纷沸腾了，在磨拳霍霍地准备着。
The people from the seven great sects that obtained the key to the Heavenly Gate were all boiling with happiness, and they were grinding their fists as they prepared.
他们宗门内的强者，也在为他们做着最后的准备，为他们积累足够多的力量，希望他们能够在天门内有所斩获。
The experts within their sects were also helping them make their last preparations and helping them accumulate enough strength, in hopes that they could obtain some benefits within the Heavenly Gate.
而此时，从聂天消失以后，也悄然不见了许久的巫寂，返回到了后山。
At this moment, after Nie Tian disappeared, Wu Ji, who had disappeared for a long time returned to the mountain.
"还有七日，那小子怎么还没有出来？"
"There's still seven days left, why hasn't that youngster come out yet?"
回来后，发现聂天依然未现踪迹时，巫寂暗暗皱眉。
After returning and noticing that Nie Tian still hadn't shown any traces of returning, Wu Ji secretly furrowed his brows.
……
