Before that day, Lu Chen had never known about this strange and mysterious place in Kunlun Mountain. Sometimes, when he thought about it, he felt that the martyr's grave really was a very strange place. In a famous sect like the Kunlun Party, this kind of secular thing should not exist, but it did, and it seemed to have a very long history.
In the past, Lu Chen had never heard a word or two about the martyr's grave from anyone. It seemed that everyone had ignored this place, just like the dusky shadow that always shrouded the area around the martyr's grave. The martyr's grave had always been out of people's sight.
People did not know about it, but it had always existed.
In fact, there were many similar things in the world. There were many people and things that we had never seen or heard of, so we thought that it was impossible. Even if we accidentally discovered something, we would certainly use our own imagination to speculate what that thing looked like.
Of course, Lu Chen would not be like this. Compared to the vast majority of cultivators in the cultivation world, the current him might be weak on the surface, but his experience and knowledge, after seeing too many people and things, had long made him understand this truth.
He was indeed surprised by the sudden appearance of the martyr's grave, but what he should do was not speculate, but carefully investigate. Abnormalities were demons, and the martyr's grave in Kunlun Mountain really seemed a bit too strange and abrupt. However, if it was really just a place that took in ownerless corpses, even if he had some doubts, he might not necessarily take the risk.
The most important reason why he sneaked into the nameless mountain this night was of course because he saw He Yi come here that day.
He Yi, this person, was now like a venomous snake hiding in the darkness, coldly and desperately searching for the whereabouts of the murderer. And coming to the martyr's grave must also be because he seemed to have discovered something here.
What exactly did he obtain from the martyr's grave?
Lu Chen was determined to get to the bottom of this. The shadow's patience was certainly unquestionable, but no one could question the shadow's ability to act.
It was just like the battle in the Desolate Valley ten years ago. No one had ever given him an order, and no one had ever told him what to do. However, at the most dangerous and critical moment, he had still acted decisively.
His figure quickly moved forward in the darkness, but for some reason, perhaps because the night wind was too cold, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest.
In the blink of an eye, it had been ten years since he last saw her …
That once beautiful face, along with the passage of time, seemed to be like all the memories in the world, gradually becoming blurry in his memory. The only thing that was still clearly engraved in his heart was her name.
…
The curfew of the Kunlun Party was an ancient rule. No one knew how many years it had lasted, including all the Yuanying Zhenren. This rule had existed since the first time everyone climbed the Kunlun Mountain.
Perhaps it was really decided by Kun Yuanzi and Tie Luo?
But what was the point of setting a curfew?
Lu Chen did not know. In fact, during his days on the Kunlun Mountain, when night fell completely, he had secretly left his house several times and moved stealthily in the darkness.
It was also because of this that he felt particularly confused about the curfew on the Kunlun Mountain.
Every time he sneaked out late at night, almost all the places he passed by at night on the Kunlun Mountain did not have any thieves. Everyone was in awe of the Kunlun Party. He had walked many times on those lonely mountain paths at night.
But nothing had happened, and there was nothing strange or incomprehensible.
The night in the Kunlun Mountain was no different from the night in other places. Perhaps there was something strange about the occasional patrolling disciple?
Then wasn't this curfew the most stupid rule?
But all the disciples of the Kunlun Sect still passed down this rule from generation to generation. It was not easy for Lu Chen to understand this, but he could shut his mouth and think about the era of the two Patriarchs thousands of years ago. Every time it was late at night on the Kunlun Mountain, some strange existences would run out and threaten the lives of the disciples of the sect.
But now, thousands of years later, those dangers seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Or maybe they were just sealed and suppressed in the most mysterious, heaviest, and tightest place under the Kunlun Mountain.
Lu Chen, who was stealthily moving in the darkness, suddenly stopped. He stood in the shadows and frowned, as if he was thinking about something carefully. After a while, he suddenly turned around and looked into the distance. That direction was the deepest part of the Kunlun Mountain Range.
There was also a legendary forbidden area there, which was the foundation of the Kunlun Party. Even Spiritual Master Yuanying could not easily approach it. The only people who could control that dark area were the two peerless Deity Stage Deity Stage Deity.
Lu Chen's eyes gradually lit up.
For a long time, everyone had been guessing what was in the forbidden area in the sky. This time, it seemed that Lu Chen had also thought of this.
Lu Chen did not know what the Evil Sect spy saw in the Kunlun Party, so it was very difficult to trace this person. But at this moment, he suddenly had a feeling that the spy came for a certain secret, and the biggest secret of the Kunlun Mountain, was probably what was in that forbidden area?
...
One had to walk step by step, rice had to be eaten bite by bite. Even if there was a new suspicion in his heart, Lu Chen still came to the martyr's grave again.
There was an extremely resourceful corpse watcher here. During the day, Lu Chen had already sensed that this person's skills were extraordinary, and he had actually almost found him. The reason why He Yi insisted on coming to this unpleasant place was probably because he wanted to get some information from the corpse watcher.
In the dark night, the martyr's grave seemed to be darker than during the day, there was a feeling of not being able to see the fingers of one's hand.
The black courtyard was like a giant beast, silently lying in this boundless darkness.
Lu Chen waited in the darkness for a long time and then slowly approached. But until he was near the tightly shut door, there was no movement in the black courtyard.
Lu Chen was hesitating whether he should investigate further or not, suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew past, the black door not far in front of him suddenly opened by itself.
A candle lit up, it was the withered corpse watcher who suddenly came to the side of the door, holding a candle in his left hand.
With the help of the flame, Lu Chen clearly saw this person's expression. He seemed to be a little cold and had no intention of talking to anyone. After looking around, he suddenly said faintly, "Please show yourself, esteemed guest. If there's nothing else, then I'll be going back to sleep."
Lu Chen quietly watched the corpse's figure, hiding in the darkness. He did not say a word, even his breathing was quiet.
The corpse watcher waited for a while, then turned around and walked back into the courtyard. The black door behind him closed with a creak.
Lu Chen looked down at his own body, he did not find anything unusual, but he could not understand why he had fallen for this a few times in the past two days. The corpse watcher seemed to always be able to notice something was wrong in advance, but it seemed like he could not really pinpoint the enemy, so it was a little awkward.
So now, should he go over?
…
He stood in the darkness outside the righteous grave for two hours, he did not rashly walk forward. He only raised his head and looked out into the distance, looking at the majestic mountain peaks and the topography of this place. Before the fourth hour arrived, he suddenly turned around and left.
At this time, the sky was still pitch-black, but to be precise, another day had already passed.
There were still twenty days until the next full moon.
Lu Chen quietly left the righteous grave area, but what he did not know was that when he left, in the dark courtyard, the corpse watcher did not go to sleep like he said he would, but stood alone in the middle of the courtyard, as if he was listening to something. When Lu Chen left outside, the corpse watcher finally let out a sigh of relief.
He raised his head to look at the sky, suddenly muttering to himself, "These few years, the Kunlun Party has produced many geniuses, their future is really limitless."
Lu Chen took advantage of the night to leave, ready to rush back to Flying Goose Platform before daybreak. Although it was unlikely that Su Qingjun would come out to patrol so early in the morning, that woman actually had a very strange and funny little quirk, she especially liked to sleep.
On the night that Su Qingjun was seriously injured, Lu Chen had once entered her cave residence. Although later on, no matter who it was, he was very tight-lipped, saying that he had never entered her cave residence, but on that night, Lu Chen did see something that he should not have seen.
Su Qingjun seemed to have a rather split personality, she was dignified and beautiful in front of others, but actually a little lazy in private. Lu Chen still clearly remembered that when he entered that day, he saw that the bed in Su Qingjun's cave residence was very clean, everything was very tidy.
Only the quilt was not folded.
When he thought of these things in his heart, he was secretly a little amused, but perhaps Su Qingjun had warned him, so he had always kept his mouth shut about this matter. But sometimes when he thought of it, he would still laugh, thinking that if Su Qingjun got married in the future, would she still be able to avoid her husband at that time?
In the dark night, the wind was strong, and the mountain path was long, but his footsteps were light and quick.
Suddenly, from an unknown place in the depths of the darkness, a strange sound came abruptly, like the mouth of a ferocious beast, but also like the sound of a hungry wolf drooling.
Lu Chen's footsteps suddenly stopped.
In the darkness ahead, in this quiet night of Kunlun mountain that seemed to have been peaceful and quiet for thousands of years, there were three green lights in the shape of a triangle, as if there were three eyes on a head, incomparably strange appeared in front of him.
