    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 114

    Enjoy! Regarding Lu Muxian's incantation, they're the Chinese names for the 7 stars of the Big Dipper. He seems to base his moves around Astrology quite a bit. I'm not gonna try and decipher any meaning behind it just yet as there's a lot of stuff regarding the Big Dipper in ancient China (In...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 113

    Happy new years all, enjoy! Scattered Big Dipper, Luminous Venus: The characters used for Venus are a more ancient way of addressing it. I would treat this just as names for Lu Muxian's attacks with a star/planet/astrology flair. If you wanna read further into it, the specific characters used...

    Enjoy! Spellbane - The previously translator called the sword Yu Chi uses 'Pohzhen'. It's correct but the meaning behind it is literally is 'break formation'. The translator on the long strip version recently used 'spellbane' so I'm just gonna keep it consistent. I'll be going on holiday soon...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 111

    Enjoy! Sword slashes the eight desolations: Literally she says: 'sword slash eight desolations/wastelands'. Eight wastelands is an older term for 'distant places in all directions'. Her move is basically an AOE. Three thousand strands of essence soars into battle, a sword in the sleeve follows...

    Hi All, enjoy! One incense stick of time: A wuxia way of saying a short amount of time. Around 5 minutes. Jiu Li: Literally 'Ninth Li'. As such its likely not a name but a way of addressing the er, whatever it is. Jiu Li's body: This section is a little confusing and I might change it if more...

    Enjoy! Don't breathe it in!: He actually says 'Close your 7 orifices' which sounded a bit too weird in english. Jiang shi: Think asian zombie/puppet

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 108

    Enjoy, shoutout again to @Bad_Vader for helping to clean the text, I would've been pretty stuck on this chapter otherwise. Ten thousand gu: Gu has been used so far to describe a class/style of cultivation but the character can also be used to address the various venomous/poisonous...

    Enjoy! Barbarians - This is a term used for people not of the central plains. There is a bit of negative connotation given to the term as they were seen as less developed. Even if it requires forceful measures: She actually says 'thunderclap methods' which basically translates into forceful...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 105

    Enjoy, a little real life busy these days so updates might be a little slower than usual. Not too many chapters left anyways though. One thing that I can't really convey through my translations is that the Di/Mountain people speak quite differently from the central plains people. The...

    Enjoy, this might the chapter with the most dialogue I've translated so far Spend a thousand gold to buy horse bones: TLDR - it's a saying that means you need to show sincerity in your actions to be effective This comes from a story where this monarch wanted to buy a horse that could run for a...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 102

    Enjoy! In case people are a little confused by Qu Chen's words, during one of his tribulations he did experience something weird. He seemed to be living through the life experiences of a cultivator who I'm guessing is quite powerful since they managed to knock off some of Xiang Liu's carapace...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 101

    Enjoy, although quite a sad chapter this time. Heart and Pulse are already broken: Doesn't seem to be an idiom. I think this is a somewhat ancient way to say someone is sure to die. You can think of it as the regular beating of the heart and pulse being broken and erratic. Widows and orphans...

    On the forum page for it, someone said the author got the rights to Long March back now. I think she'll work on it after finishing Sky Pacers.

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 100

    Chapter 100! :win::dogewow: Earth escape talisman: I'm pretty sure she's referring to the Earth shrink talisman she used in chapter 98. She uses a different name for it here but I think it's just because Earth Shrink is the specific name while Earth Escape is the talisman type. Uncle: A-Ting...

    Song of the Sky Pacers - Ch. 99

    Good question actually. She says '师兄' here which is just Senior Brother or Senior Martial Brother. However, as you know it's generally used for members of the same sect in a friendly way. The two of them really aren't friends so she's saying it in more of a sarcastic way such as: 'Hey bro...
