A dilapidated plaque hangs on the door of an abandoned ancient temple. The night is as cool as water and the place is silent. It does not look like the chaotic and turbulent law storm that Chen Xuan imagined.
Could it be that they were not moved to the border area, but to another part of the Dark Soul Realm?
The Realm of Dark Souls is formed from a part of the underworld that was destroyed. This place is so dense with gloom that it will indeed give people the illusion of entering the underworld.
The name of the temple "Lanruo Temple" reminded Chen Xuan of the story of Nie Xiaoqian, the ghost of A Chinese Girl.
But even if it was really the legendary Lanruo Temple that was displaced to the border area due to the collapse of the four major continents, Chen Xuan did not think that Nie Xiaoqian was still alive.
Looking at the situation of the others, they all landed safely and no one was injured.
"Nangong, are you sure this is outside the border area?"
Chen Xuan turned to look at Elder Nangong.
"I'm not sure."
Nangong looked solemn and on high alert, "The outer area of the junction is very vast, and the law energy is relatively stable, but this place is indeed too quiet."
"It's just outside the junction."
Gong Zijia suddenly spoke with a very firm tone.
Chen Xuan remembered that Gong Zijia once said that she lived in the junction area for a period of time when she was a child, so she knew much more about the junction area than Nangong.
"The junction is composed of four major continents and a large number of fragments of the prehistoric world. There are all kinds of landforms and environments in its periphery. Even the Huaguo Mountain, Pansi Cave, and Shituoling Ridge of the past may have wandered in."
After listening to Gong Zijia's explanation, everyone looked surprised.
In this case, it is not surprising that Lanruo Temple in the story of A Chinese Ghost Story appears outside the junction.
Chen Xuan released his spiritual consciousness to scan the surrounding environment, and then his sword eyebrows narrowed slightly. He sensed that there was someone in Lanruo Temple, but he didn't notice it just now.
There's obviously a master there.
"Be careful."
Chen Xuan reminded everyone, and then took the lead and walked towards the temple gate step by step.
According to legend, various powerful monsters roam around Lanruo Temple all year round. After years of evolution in the special environment of the border area, these monsters must have mutated even more severely.
Just when Chen Xuan stepped onto the first stone step, a man's voice came from Lanruo Temple: "If you are a passer-by, please do not stay here."
This voice made everyone curious.
It turns out it's not a monster, but a human?
The other party's cultivation level was extraordinary. From such a close distance, Chen Xuan's eyesight was actually unable to see the figure clearly.
"Senior inside, we are not here to stay overnight, but we are lost and need your guidance."
Graceful asked politely in an attempt.
There was silence in Lanruo Temple for a moment, and then the man's voice rang out again, as if he was sighing softly: "Every year, there are many outside monks who get lost outside the border area. It's a pity that I can't leave this place to lead you."
"May I ask, why did you stay in this ghost temple?"
Nangong raised his hand.
"Lanruo Temple is a treasured place for the cultivation of monsters and monsters. Every night it attracts a large number of 'chaos giant monsters' to seize the territory. I guard here to catch ghosts and subjugate them."
The mysterious man answered bluntly.
When everyone heard this, it turned out that this man was still a righteous monk.
Meng Zhou snorted coldly and said, "Who knows if you are a demon or a ghost in disguise?"
"No rudeness!"
Nangong waved his hand and scolded.
At this time, Wan'er boldly asked: "Then if we help you, senior, defeat the monsters, can you guide us on how to leave the junction?"
"I don't want you to be killed by monsters, so please leave quickly."
The mysterious man always spoke politely.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Tonight is dark and windy, with strong Yin energy and evil winds. I'm afraid it's not an ordinary night. It may not be safe for senior to guard it alone. I'm willing to lend a helping hand to senior."
"Senior, we are all of the same mind, shouldn't we help each other?"
Nan Qianqian also spoke.
There was another silence in Lanruo Temple.
"Forget it, there may be an extremely rare phenomenon of 'Heavenly Demon Clashing the Seven Evils' tonight. This area is full of resentment. It might be safer for you to stay in Lanruo Temple, so just stay."
"Thank you, senior. Can we go in?"
Graceful asked respectfully.
"Please."
With the permission of the mysterious man, the group cautiously walked into the temple.
I saw a vicissitudes of life man wearing a bamboo hat and a sad beard, sitting under the tilted Buddha statue, holding a sword in front of his chest with both hands, showing a weather-beaten temperament.
Chen Xuan glanced around and saw no one else, nor anything unusual about this vicissitudes of life man.
"Didn't you ask the seniors for their surnames?"
"My name is Yan Jianxing."
The man had no intention of concealing his name, and his words and deeds were aboveboard.
Chen Xuan was slightly surprised when he heard this: "Senior, could he be the descendant of Yan Chixia, the demon-conquering swordsman?"
"Have you heard of my ancestors?"
Yan Jianxing raised his head, revealing his eyes that were previously covered by a bamboo hat. They were piercing and without any impurities.
"In those days, Hero Yan was very famous, and stories about him slaying demons and demons were spread among the people."
After hearing Chen Xuan's answer, Yan Jianxing smiled: "I didn't expect that in this era, there would still be people who remember our Yan family."
