The night was boundless, and the majestic mountains stood tall. The majestic Kunlun stood tall in the world. No one knew how many years had passed, and how many vicissitudes had it seen.
Lu Chen took advantage of the night and swept up the mountain. His figure blended into the darkness, like a shadow that was no different from the surrounding darkness. He passed through quietly and did not alarm any of the patrolling guards.
The curfew rule passed down by the Kunlun Party for many years was obviously still in effect. In such a famous sect, in the dead of night, except for the disciples who patrolled the mountain, there were almost no other figures.
In fact, based on Lu Chen's current status, his position in the Kunlun Party could not be underestimated. Just being the only direct disciple of Supreme Tianlan was enough to put him in a position that was second only to one and above tens of thousands of people.
After all, in today's Kunlun Party, the status of Supreme Tianlan could be said to be supreme, and no one could compare to him.
In other words, as long as Supreme Tianlan and Lu Chen were willing, they could announce to the public that Lu Chen had come this time, and the Kunlun Party might open the mountain gate to welcome him warmly and hold a welcoming ceremony.
However, this time, neither Lu Chen nor Supreme Tianlan had this intention. Instead, they were silent and did not inform the Kunlun Party of their actions at all.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Lu Chen quietly entered the Kunlun mountain, and Black Dog went with him.
They avoided the mysterious patrolling guards of the Kunlun Party, went all the way deep, and gradually approached the heart of the Kunlun Party.
In fact, it was not very easy for ordinary people to sneak into the Kunlun Party, but Lu Chen had lived here for many years, and he basically knew the mountains, rivers, and geography of this place. Even Atsu had run wildly in this mountain before. Trekking over mountains and rivers was not a problem for it at all. Instead, it had a sense of familiarity as if it had returned to its hometown.
Therefore, it didn't take much effort for the man and the dog to avoid the patrolling guards along the way. From afar, they saw the place known as the forbidden area of Kunlun.
The once marvelous scenery of the human world, the four strange mountains that were floating in mid-air, now only three remained. They drew long shadows in the night sky, and the place that had suddenly become empty seemed a little strange and awkward.
When he was in Immortal City, Lu Chen had learned about some of the current situation of the Kunlun Party from the well-informed Old Ma. Of course, there were all kinds of complicated situations and undercurrents, but roughly speaking, Hakushin Jinkun's forces had been completely erased in the past few years.
Everything that used to be related to Hakushin Jinkun had become a taboo, whether openly or secretly, and no one was willing to mention it. Even the Winter Peak, which had fallen, and the huge piles of soil and rocks that had fallen to the ground were still piled up on Kunlun Mountain, no one seemed to have seen it anymore.
Every day, every time they saw the three peaks of spring, summer, and autumn, people only thought that these three strange peaks had always existed in the world, and there had never been a fourth peak.
That was probably how shallow human relationships were. Or maybe there were some people who still remembered in their hearts that they were not unkind, but the affairs of the world had come to this. In the end, they could not be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, and they could only go with the wind and dust.
As the disciple of Supreme Tianlan, Lu Chen, of course, would not have such worries in his heart. After glancing at the empty night sky expressionlessly, his expression did not change at all, and he continued to move forward.
Soon, he and Atsu approached the forbidden area of Kunlun, the place that was shrouded in thick fog all year round.
…
A small mountain that was made up of huge rocks and countless piles of soil was at the edge of the thick fog. Half of it was exposed outside the thick fog, and the other half was covered by the thick fog.
In the darkness of the night, this tall mountain stood quietly. One could vaguely see that the mountain was no longer desolate, and a lot of weeds and greenery had grown on it.
Life was like this. Even though the Winter Peak was cold and nothing could grow on it, in the years after the crash, the land that had turned into an ownerless mountain would naturally be covered with greenery after being watered by the wind and rain.
Lu Chen glanced at the mountain, but he could no longer see any trace of the majestic and austere mountain from back then. Everything had completely collapsed that night, including the once insufferably arrogant glory, fame, wealth, and majesty. All that was left was the soil that had fallen into the dust in front of him.
He expressionlessly turned his head, walked around the mountain, and continued to walk towards the thick fog.
However, when he saw that the thick fog was getting closer and closer, Lu Chen suddenly stopped. After thinking for a moment, he turned his head to look at Atsu and said, "You better not go in with me."
Atsu looked a little stunned. It tilted its head and looked into the depths of the thick fog, as if it was a little unwilling.
However, Lu Chen shook his head and walked over to touch Atsu's head. He whispered, "There are some things inside … No, you don't want to see them. Just wait for me outside. "
Although Atsu was unwilling, it was very obedient to Lu Chen most of the time. It immediately nodded, wagged its tail, and licked his hand.
Lu Chen smiled and hugged it gently. Then, he turned around and took a deep breath before striding into the thick fog.
The fog engulfed Lu Chen's figure in the blink of an eye. At this time, it was more and more obvious that this place was strange. The land was so close, but there seemed to be an invisible boundary or a transparent high wall in the void. The fog was always gathered on the side of the boundary, and no matter what, it would not cross the boundary.
The gray and tall fog wall blocked all the prying eyes. Even Atsu couldn't see the situation in the fog.
After Lu Chen went inside, it was as if he suddenly disappeared from this world. There was no sound or movement. Atsu waited in the same place for a long time, and gradually began to feel a little bored.
It turned its head and looked around. Then, its gaze fell on the earthen mountain not far away.
In the night, the mountain formed by the collapsed winter peak looked like it was cut in half by the fog. The exposed half of the mountain looked very ugly and steep.
Suddenly, Atsu seemed to be startled. It raised its head and looked up. At the top of the mountain far away, in the darkness where the thick fog intersected, there was suddenly a glimmer of light.
It was like a shadow, swaying in the dark night.
Atsu stared at the dark high place. After a while, it took the first step forward and began to slowly climb up the mountain.
The mountain was steep, and the terrain was dangerous. Although many places were covered with grass and trees, there were still some dangerous places. It was easy for sand and stones to roll down, and if one was not careful, one would fall from the high place. However, Atsu was obviously very good at this. It walked all the way, jumping and running, and gradually approached the top of the mountain.
Then, in the thick fog not far in front of it, Atsu's body suddenly trembled. In the thick fog, it suddenly saw a pair of huge eyes in front of it. Even the darkness could not block the light in the eyes, staring at it coldly.
Above and below the mountain, in the shadow of the night, it was silent.
