Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Chapter 999: It’s Not Enough to Stay Alone

The night is quiet and the shadows of spring mountains are far away!

Shen Yichen rode a horse to the top of Yunyu Mountain. He felt a little better and had fewer troubles. He hoped that his fate would be better.

Without Jian Chenqing, Shen Yichen felt much more relaxed.

The top of Yunyu Mountain is still quite far away from Dubei Zen Temple, and Shen Yichen did not see the Yin-Yang Pool that Jian Chenqing mentioned.

In fact, Shen Yichen saw it, but when he passed by there, there was no water there, only a dark deep hole. He instinctively left quickly. Deep down in his heart, Shen Yichen was still afraid of deep holes.

When Shen Yichen saw the dark green jade stone, he knew he had reached the top of Yunyu Mountain.

After walking for a long time, Shen Yichen discovered that this was not a peak, but a huge deep pit, surrounded by jade mountains, and inside it was a jade forest with strange shapes!

The roads in the Yushi Forest are complicated and it’s a great place to kill people.

Shen Yichen saw many corpses along the way. Under the moonlight, there were people wearing all kinds of clothes and with all kinds of wounds.

Shen Yichen didn't know where Bodhi Xuanlan would appear. He guessed it would be somewhere crowded with people. People came here every ten years, so they must have been prepared. Perhaps he would be the only one who rushed in like a fool.

Shen Yichen was really a young and foolish man. After all, he had experienced some hardships, but he actually got lost. He was originally walking towards the place where the breath was fluctuating, but when he arrived at the place where the breath was fluctuating, the breath fluctuation seemed to have moved to another place.

After Shen Yichen missed twice in a row, he realized that there might be another mystery in the Yu Shi Forest.

Shen Yichen found a secluded place and used the Xuanxu Chenxiao Jue to explore the surroundings.

This time, Shen Yichen finally realized that his Xuanxu Chenxiao Jue had entered the next realm. He didn't know what realm it was, but he must have made progress. Not only did he explore farther than before, but it seemed to have become very subtle, which was similar to the feeling of being in harmony with the world in his Zen state.

After Shen Yichen slowly finished his practice, he muttered to himself in confusion:

"Isn't it because of the Mysterious Void Chenxiao Technique that I am one with the heaven and earth?"

Shen Yichen didn't think much about it. He got up and went to look for people. He knew why the location of the breath sensing was not accurate. The surrounding Yu Shi Mountain not only reflected the moonlight but also the breath.

Shen Yichen guessed that it must be related to the Yu Stone Forest and the Yu Stone itself. Just like an echo in a deep valley, what he sensed was the breath of an echo.

This time Shen Yichen found the right direction. In the deep valley and stone forest on the top of Yunyu Mountain, there are four sky pools. The four sky pools are adjacent to each other, and there is a protruding huge stone platform in the middle. The huge stone platform seems to provide a ring for the people in the martial arts world, but this ring will kill people.

When Shen Yichen arrived, two people were fighting on the giant stone arena, one with a knife and the other with a spear.

Shen Yichen didn't even look at it, as he didn't recognize it. He looked around and finally locked his sight on the four Tianchi. That should be where Bodhi Xuanlan might appear.

At this moment, every Tianchi was occupied by someone. Some were defended by one sect, and some were jointly defended by two sects. The wandering cultivators like him were hiding on the periphery.

Shen Yichen walked around the outermost area and took a rough look at what kind of people there were. There were really both good and evil people. Although he couldn't call out their names, he could roughly tell whether they were Buddha Yuan, Demon Qi, those who used knives, those who used swords, and those who practiced Taoism.

Shen Yichen also saw several familiar faces, including the two men who mocked him on the way, the women drinking tea in the tea stall, and those who stopped him outside Yixianxia.

Shen Yichen looked at all kinds of people and actually felt like he was shopping. The people selling things on the street were performing arts, selling their skills of killing people!

The circular platform in the middle was stained with blood, and the dead people under the platform formed a small hill. Shen Yichen couldn't understand it. Aren't these people going to die?

Shen Yichen's understanding of the martial arts world was still so superficial. Did some people just not want to die? For example, now, he was stopped by someone because he was asked to go to the central circular platform and kill someone!

"Why don't you go yourselves?"

Shen Yichen looked at the five people surrounding him. They were from the sect that occupied one of the Tianchi Lakes, and there were many of them.

"We are a reputable and upright sect, so it will be more convenient for us to borrow your help!"

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? He dies, you die, it's your choice!"

"You don't know the rules at all, why did you come to Yunyu Mountain?"

"Hurry up, go kill him, we won't kill you!"

Shen Yichen was slightly stunned!

"Does killing someone in Yanquan need to be so complicated? The five of you just went and killed him, which is faster than me. What's the matter? You're bullying the weak with your numbers, and you can't afford to lose face? In private, you have no shame, right?"

Of course Shen Yichen would not go, but he was interested. It turned out that he could use someone else's hand to kill the person he wanted to kill. It was interesting. He had never thought about it this way!

"Boy, if you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the penalty wine!"

"Come with us if you dare!"

The two people who were talking walked towards the Yu Shi Forest first, while the other three people were holding long swords and forcing Shen Yichen.

Shen Yichen shook his head and asked as he walked:

"You have to tell me which sect you are from, right?"

"I'll let you know before I die!"

Shen Yichen looked back at the people beside Tianchi. The masters from the same sect did not stop them from doing evil. Shen Yichen understood that this should be the common practice here. Everyone probably did the same.

In fact, Shen Yichen didn't know that while he was observing others, others were also observing him. Those sects that had the ability to snatch Bodhi Xuanlan, or those sects that were determined to get it, would deal with the scattered people in the surrounding area who looked threatening in advance. Of course, they were outnumbered, which not only increased Yun Yushan's blood, but also reduced a threat.

Shen Yichen turned around and found that three sects had their eyes on him. The reason was that those masters could not see through Shen Yichen's cultivation level and would rather kill him by mistake than let him go!

Shen Yichen didn't expect that he would really kill someone when he came to Yanquan. He couldn't even keep himself out of it because people forced him to kill!

Shen Yichen showed no mercy. Since the Jianghu of Yanquan was like this, he had to adapt to the local customs! He pinched the last person with his magic hands and said coldly:

"You said you would tell me before you died!"

"You, you, please spare me!"

"Hey, hey, hey, if I forgive you, will your master let me go?"

"we are……"

"Whoosh!"

A whistle flew out!

Shen Yichen was slightly startled. He knew it was a messenger! He slapped the man on the head and disappeared in a flash.

Soon, more than a dozen people came to the place where the five people died. They looked at the bodies of the five people and searched everywhere. When they didn’t find Shen Yichen, they went back to report.

Shen Yichen hid very far away. He didn't want to be found by those people, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

"Dude, where's your little lady?"

"Are you not feeling well? You have such a beautiful woman by your side, yet you still come here to die?"

Shen Yichen suddenly turned his head and looked behind him. There were two people on the top of the Yu Shilin behind him. They were the two men who teased him on horseback during the day.

The two men looked a few years older than he did. One of them was dressed like a scholar, with a thin build and a folding fan in his hand. It was dark and his face could not be seen clearly.

The other one was a typical gangster, dressed similarly to Shen Yichen. What impressed Shen Yichen the most was the wine jug around his waist.

"Are you here to kill me, or force me to kill someone, or are you here to find that woman?"

Shen Yichen was not afraid, but he was still worried in his heart. These two people appeared near him without anyone noticing, so their cultivation should be quite strong. Of course, this was also related to Yun Yushan's characteristics, and it was difficult to accurately capture their breath.

"You killed someone from the Shadow Hall, yet you're still so calm. Buddy, I'm afraid you're not a simple person, right?"

"Leave that woman to us two brothers, we won't tell on anyone!"

Shen Yichen was startled when he heard this, and said in surprise:

"Are those people from the Shadow Hall?"

Shen Yichen really didn't expect that the people in the Shadow Hall all wore black scarves and masks to kill people and steal things?

"Dude, you're really new to Yanquan. You don't even know anyone from the famous Shadow Hall!"

"Where's that slutty bitch?"

Shen Yichen understood that these two people were deceiving him!

Shen Yichen was wondering whether to kill these two people when suddenly, a flash of sword light flashed by.

Before Shen Yichen could understand what was going on, two heads fell from the top of the Yu Stone Forest, but their bodies were still above the stone forest.

"I am from the Shadow Hall!"
