Chapter 117: Gates of Hell
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Middle of the night, Lu Yuan’s courtyard in the Moon Mountain Pass.
“Thump, thump, thump…”
Lu Yuan, who was originally cultivating with his eyes closed, suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Lu Yuan opened his eyes when he heard the dull knocking on the door.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly when he heard the rhythmic sound of the wooden door knocking.
He was currently at the center of the Moon Mountain Pass.
Furthermore, there were practitioners guarding the entrance of the courtyard.
No one should be disturbing him at this time.
Not to mention knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan immediately prepared to spread his spiritual sense out to see what was going on outside the door.
However, as soon as his spiritual sense spread out, Lu Yuan was immediately jolted awake.
Because in his perception, the current him… actually appeared on an unfamiliar street.
That’s right, it was an unfamiliar street.
According to Lu Yuan’s perception, this was a market similar to the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom.
Both sides of the road were filled with shops and courtyards.
And the place he was now at was no longer the original Moon Mountain Pass.
Instead, he was in the backyard of a shop.
This shop… seemed to be a pharmacy.
The knocking on his door actually came from the door of the shop.
However, Lu Yuan found it strange that he did not know who was knocking on the door.
This was because his spiritual sense could not sense anything at all.
However, the constant knocking on the door was real.
In an instant, Lu Yuan felt a strong sense of crisis.
This was the first time he had encountered a situation that was beyond his control since he transmigrated.
Firstly, he did not know why he appeared here. Secondly, he did not know who or what was knocking on his door.
This sudden situation made Lu Yuan instinctively feel very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan woke Meng Ruyan up.
“Senior Sister, wake up?”
Not long after, Meng Ruyan woke up.
She looked at Lu Yuan’s serious expression and asked with a frown, “Junior Brother, did something happen?”
Lu Yuan nodded and then roughly described the situation outside to Meng Ruyan.
After hearing Lu Yuan said that they had suddenly appeared on an unfamiliar street from Moon Mountain Pass, Meng Ruyan’s expression changed immediately.
With a wave of spiritual energy, Meng Ruyan put on her clothes.
Then, she walked out of the room and went to the door to look outside.
In the dark night, a bright moon hung high in the sky.
Not sure if it was the high humidity of the place or some other reason that caused the courtyard where Lu Yuan and Meng Ruyan were to be filled with fog.
Moreover, this fog did not seem to be ordinary. Not only could it block the vision of cultivators, but it could also suppress their perception.
Even Lu Yuan, a cultivator with an Emptiness Realm Soul, had his perception suppressed to a radius of 100 meters.
Under ordinary circumstances, he could sense any situation within a one-kilometre radius.
His perception was suppressed to only one-tenth of its original level.
After Meng Ruyan finished observing the situation outside, she ignored the knocking on the door and returned to Lu Yuan’s side.
“Junior Brother, it seems like we’ve been sucked into the Full Moon Mountain Range.”
“What? Weren’t we still at Moon Mountain Pass?”
“Although Moon Mountain Pass is adjacent to the Full Moon Mountain Range, there should still be some distance between the two.”
It was no wonder Lu Yuan was so surprised.
He had learned a lot about the situation in Full Moon Mountain Range.
In Lu Yuan’s own words, the Full Moon Mountain Range was a place full of danger.
Not only were there powerful demons and evil here, but it was also not difficult to encounter strange things that were rarely seen in the outside world.
To suddenly appear in such a dangerous place without him noticing was undoubtedly a very dangerous signal.
Because to bring him to an unfamiliar place so quietly, the person must be a cultivator of at least the fifth revolution of the core formation stage or at the nascent soul stage.
Otherwise, with Lu Yuan’s current cultivation and the strength of his divine soul at the Intermediate Emptiness Realm, he would have been able to react if an ordinary Core Formation Stage cultivator was within a certain distance of him.
Even if he could not defeat the other party, it was impossible for him to be in such a situation where he did not know anything.
However, Lu Yuan quickly regained his composure after experiencing the initial shock.
As a steady person, he had to learn to control his emotions well. He should not panic because of an accident.
Although Lu Yuan was used to thinking through all the situations, he was not a god, so it was impossible for him to consider things beyond his knowledge.
It was just like how no matter how smart the people in ancient times were when they suddenly encountered a gun, it was impossible for them to know how dangerous it was.
Because they had never seen such a thing before.
Lu Yuan’s current situation was like this.
It was only the first day he knew the true situation of the Full Moon Mountain Range. How could he have thought that he would be sucked into the Full Moon Mountain Range while he was at the Moon Mountain Pass…
It was simply impossible to think of it!
Not only did he not know previously, but he also gave Lu Yuan very little time to prepare.
From the time the demoness Meng Ruyan and Senior Brother Bai Dafei arrived to the time he found himself in a strange pharmacy, it had definitely not been more than half a day.
Under such circumstances, how could Lu Yuan respond?
Thus, the current situation was a test of Lu Yuan’s adaptability.
As for why he did not see Bai Dafei in the courtyard, Lu Yuan was unable to make a reliable guess because he lacked key information.
Lu Yuan felt that the most reliable piece of information was that this strange teleportation should be a little random.
Otherwise, Bai Dafei’s residence which is right next to him, with only a wall between the two of them, there was no reason for Lu Yuan to appear here, but not Bai Dafei.
Lu Yuan looked at Meng Ruyan after thinking about this.
“Senior Sister, what do you think of the current situation?”
“Junior Brother,” Meng Ruyan said after thinking for a moment, “I can’t tell you the exact situation. But I’m sure of one thing. We should be in the Gates of Hell on the outskirts of the Full Moon Mountain Range.”
“Gates of Hell?”
Meng Ruyan nodded and said,” The so-called Gates of Hell is not only hinting that this is an extremely dangerous place for most cultivators. It also means that most of the things that will appear in this place are dirty things.”
“According to what I know so far, the Gates of Hell outside the Full Moon Mountain Range are divided according to regions.”
“Each of these regions has a King of Hell who is comparable to a Core Formation Stage cultivator.”
A King of Hell comparable to a Core Formation Stage cultivator?!
After hearing this news, Lu Yuan felt even more troubled.
Although he had always said that he was invincible below the core formation stage and equal above the core formation stage, if there was nothing, he would definitely not want to spar with a Core Formation cultivator!
Isn’t it good for everyone to cultivate peacefully together!
