Any other questions? the Creator God said, still being quite polite to him, and he wouldn't leave until he finished.

Translation: "Any other questions?" the Creator God said, still being quite polite to him, not leaving until he finished speaking.

But we must not add words not in the source. The source: 'Any other questions?' the Creator God said, still being quite polite to him, and he wouldn't leave until he finished.

Literal: "Any other problems?" Creator God said, to him still quite polite, not saying finish just not leave.

We need to produce natural English but not add extra info. Let's craft: "Any other questions?" said the Creator God, still being quite polite to him, not leaving until he finished. That seems okay.

We must keep the quote marks? The source includes Chinese quotes 「」. We can keep English quotes? Usually we translate to English quotes. We'll use double quotes.

Thus: "Any other questions?" said the Creator God, still being quite polite to him, not leaving until he finished.

Check if we added anything: "said" is implied by "said". "still being quite polite to him" matches "still being quite polite to him". "not leaving until he finished" matches "not leaving until he finished". Good.

Xiao Feng thought for a moment, then asked: "Feng Feng Shi... was she resurrected in perfect health?"

Translation: Xiao Feng thought for a moment, then asked: "Feng Feng Shi... was she completely healthy when revived?"

We need to keep the meaning: Xiao Feng pondered, then asked: "Feng Feng Shi... was she completely healthy when revived?"

Natural: Xiao Feng pondered, then asked: "Feng Feng Shi... was she resurrected in perfect health?" But we must not add meaning not present. "Was she revived completely healthy?" means "Was she revived completely healthy?" So "was she completely healthy when revived?" is fine.

We'll output: Xiao Feng thought for a moment, then asked: "Feng Feng Shi... was she completely healthy when revived?"

Creator God nodded: "Originally I wanted her to retrain the cultivation path, wait until the laws are perfected before returning, so she could regain her former cultivation. Now she has been revived early, her flesh is weak—she hasn't even reached the level of a controller. But health-wise there's no issue; spending tens of thousands of years should bring her back to her peak, albeit slower than in the game world."

Translation: The Creator God nodded: "Originally I wanted her to retrain the cultivation path, and after the laws are perfected she could return and regain her former cultivation. Now she's revived early; her fleshly body is weak, not even reaching the level of a controller. But health-wise there's no problem; spending tens of thousands of years should bring her back to peak, slower than in the game world."

We need to keep numbers: "tens of thousands of years" means "tens of thousands of years". We'll keep "tens of thousands of years". "slower than in the game world" -> "slower than in the game world". Good.

We'll output: The Creator God nodded: "Originally I wanted her to retrain the cultivation path, and after the laws are perfected she could return and regain her former cultivation. Now she's revived early; her fleshly body is weak, not even reaching the level of a controller. But health-wise there's no problem; spending tens of thousands of years should bring her back to peak, slower than in the game world."

As for not involving karma, it's because she is still in the spacetime rift; if karma becomes too great, it will cause unpredictable variables.

Translation: As for not karma-binding, it's because she is still in the spacetime rift; if karma becomes too great, it will cause unpredictable changes.

Now, affected by the higher-dimensional universe, the spacetime rift has collapsed, the plan terminated, she returned early in a weak state, unable to grow quickly in the game world, and can only diligently cultivate in the real world.

Translation: But now, affected by the high-dimensional universe, the spacetime rift collapsed, the plan terminated, and she returned early in a weak state; she cannot quickly grow in the game world, and can only diligently cultivate in the real world.

Moreover, her past selves were quite distinctive: there was the golden-crowned lightning eagle incarnation, plus the 7th-, 8th-, and 9th-stage bloodline periods, and even her human form had separated out, making a total of five distinct forms.

Translation: Moreover, her past self was quite unique: there was a golden-crowned thunder eagle incarnation, plus the 7th, 8th, and 9th stage bloodline periods, even her human form separated out—five forms in total.

Crane Fairy glumly said: "Don't mention it—I'm just a mount. Who knows why I got sucked into this illusion. A bunch of my past selves ran out to beat me, then a future version of me appeared, that was brutal—she slapped me to pieces, said she wanted to replace me, and scared the bird out of me, screech~"

Translation: He Xianzi sulked: "Forget it, I'm just a mount; who knows why I got sucked into the illusion. A crowd of my past selves rushed out to beat me, then a future self appeared—so vicious, slapped me to pieces, said it would replace me, scared the bird out of me—cheep cheep cheep~"

You probably wouldn't

Translation: "You wouldn't now"

you probably wouldn't

But we need to keep the quote marks? We'll keep English double quotes.

Thus: "You wouldn't now

But we need to keep the line as is; we cannot add closing quote. We'll output: "You wouldn't now

However we need to ensure we don't add extra characters. The Chinese line: 'You probably wouldn't'

We translate: "You wouldn't now

We'll keep the opening quote and no closing.

"Already been replaced, right?" Xiao Feng feigned suspicion.

Translation: "Already been replaced, huh?" Xiao Feng feigned suspicion.

"No no no!" Crane Fairy quickly shook her head, explaining: "My future self is bad—she said she wanted to force herself on big brother and then get benefits from you. I'm not that kind of bad bird; besides, you'd naturally give me lots of benefits, so there's no need to sell my body, right?"

Translation: "No no no!" He Xianzi quickly shook her head, explaining: "My future self is bad, saying she wants to force herself on big brother and then get benefits from you. I'm not that kind of bad bird; besides, you'd naturally give me lots of benefits, no need to sell my body, right?"

"Huh?"

Translation: But she went duang—was bounced backward, tumbling down several steps, landing at the bottom, her clothes and hair a mess, looking quite embarrassed.

Only He Xianzi, after dying once, didn't want to go in anymore, lacking the players' kind of fighting spirit.

Xiao Feng saw how lazy she was, with no fighting spirit at all, and said, "Stay here and wait for my summon; when I go up the mountain, just follow me."

"All right, big brother! I must come along for the treasure-hunting segment—I can fly fast!" He Xianzi said happily.

Xiao Feng went up the mountain on foot.

Qian Sha and the others watched his figure go up unhindered, all sighing in admiration.

"This guy is indeed much stronger than us," Qian Sha remarked.

Shen Chuo frowned: "If that's the case, shouldn't his future self be even stronger? How exactly are we supposed to defeat him?"

"Um, I don't know either," Qian Sha shook his head, completely clueless.

"Forget it, let's keep trying—I think I've come up with another idea!"

Shen Chuo didn't dwell on it long, walked forward a while, and soon entered the illusion space again.

Xiao Feng continued up the mountain path, the whole way quiet.

This mountain path isn't as long as the previous stage—just twelve hundred steps.

The original design was that each death lets you move forward an extra twelve steps; after dying a hundred times, you'd exactly reach the summit and pass.

And he was directly created by the

God approved his passage, so he didn't need to go through all that trouble.

Others in the illusion kill their past selves one by one, then challenge their future selves.

He, however, directly absorbed the attributes of his past self, resulting in great growth.

Those attributes were truly brought out; although now they are suppressed to only one ten-thousandth of their original attributes, the attribute points have not been lost and still remain.

Therefore, this mountain stretch is already a big prize for him.

After reaching the summit and passing, there will still be a second reward!
