Chapter 118:1 Like to Leave It to the Heavens!

“Senior Sister, how much do you know about the Gates of Hell that we are currently in?”
Lu Yuan thought that since the demoness Meng Ruyan was so familiar with the Full Moon Mountain Range, she should know something about the situation at the Gates of Hell.
But to his surprise, Meng Ruyan shook her head.
“Junior Brother, you might not know this, but there are a total of ten Gates of Hell on the outskirts of the Full Moon Mountain Range.”
“In every Gate of Hell, the King of Hell guarding it is also very different. Moreover, they are different from the ghosts you understand. The essence of these Kings of Hell are evildoers. They are linked to the Gates of Hell and cannot be killed.”
“The various sects have already explored the Full Moon Mountain Range many times, but for some reason, most people basically don’t remember what they experienced after passing through the Gates of Hell.”
“Only some cultivators with special physiques will retain a small part of their memories after they leave.”
“The records on the Gates of Hell by the eight righteous and demonic sects are also based on the descriptions of these cultivators.”
“The righteous way sect, Tianji Sect, is one of the few sects with a relatively complete record of the Gates of Hell.”
“According to them, the so-called Gates of Hell is actually a special projection of the way of the heavens in the Full Moon Mountain Range. It’s similar to the natural phenomenon of changing between day and night.”
“Every time the Tidal Moon of the Full Moon Mountain Range starts, cultivators will be randomly teleported to the Gates of Hell after passing through the fog of the Full Moon.”
“What is the principle of teleportation, the basis of teleportation and is there any danger in the teleportation process, there are not known by outsiders.”
“But one thing is for sure. Every cultivator who could retain a certain amount of memory of the Gates of Hell will always remember a sentence in the end.”
“Entering the Gates of Hell, life and death are destined.”
“Every sect has their own interpretation of this message.”
“The current consensus is that once a cultivator enters the Gates of Hell, their life and death are no longer in their own hands. It is left to fate.”
Hearing this, Lu Yuan was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt a rare sense of relief.
“Are you kidding me?” He thought. “You actually told me that the life and death of this place are decided by the heavens?”
“That’s a good thing, A great thing!”
“I, Lu Yuan, don’t have anything else, but I’m deeply favoured by the heavens!”
“With the filial piety that I, Lu Yuan, have shown, the heavens will definitely not make things difficult for me.”
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan felt that his chances of successfully passing through the Gates of Hell had instantly increased by at least half.
There was no other reason. Just the absolute confidence that a child had in his father.
Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, let alone the heavens, which is particular about fairness and justice…
As for Lu Yuan’s mood, Meng Ruyan was not clear about it.
At this moment, she had already fallen into deep thought.
“That’s strange. Logically speaking, every Tidal Moon cycle is three hundred years. There have never been any mistakes in the previous few times.”
“But this time, it was brought forward by almost a year. This is obviously abnormal.”
“And my current position is already outside of Full Moon Mountain. This means that this Tidal Moon’s range is much larger than before. It’s at least a third larger.”
“No wonder. No wonder all the patriarchs said that this Tidal Moon was extraordinary. Perhaps there was a secret to becoming an Immortal hidden within.”
“Such a strange phenomenon means that this Tidal Moon is likely to contain a great opportunity. However, I don’t know how much danger is hidden behind this great opportunity.”
Meng Ruyan’s mutterings were all heard by Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan did not care about any great opportunities or secrets to becoming an immortal.
To him, what he cared about the most now was how to safely escape from this damned place.
“Senior Sister, let’s talk about other things later,” Lu Yuan said directly.
“The most important thing now is to think of a way to deal with that thing that is constantly knocking on the door.”
“My spiritual sense is currently suppressed. Although it can cover the outside of the courtyard, I can’t sense the specific situation of that thing at the door.”
“If it weren’t for the constant knocking on the door, I might have thought that there was nothing outside now.”
“Senior Sister, can you sense what is outside?”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Meng Ruyan’s thoughts were pulled back.
Then, she looked at the door and shook her head after sensing for a moment.
“Junior brother, I can’t sense the specific situation outside either.”
Lu Yuan was not too surprised to receive this reply.
After all, although the demoness Meng Ruyan’s luck was shocking and her cultivation was extraordinary, the strength of her divine soul was definitely not as strong as his.
Even he could not sense the situation outside, let alone others.
Just as the two of them were still thinking about how to deal with the thing that knocked on the door, the knocking on the door changed from once every five breaths to once every four breaths.
Lu Yuan and Meng Ruyan noticed this subtle change.
The two of them thought of it almost immediately.
The knocking on the door clearly contained something.
If they could not open the door at the stipulated time, there was no doubt that something terrifying would happen.
This wasn’t a wild guess by the two of them, but a reasonable conclusion based on the current situation.
Thinking of this, Meng Ruyan hesitated for a moment and was about to get up to open the door.
She believed that although the Gates of Hell was terrifying, according to the sect’s records, every time after the start of the Tidal Moon, one-third of the people could break through the Gates of Hell and enter the land of demons.
She, Meng Ruyan, was talented and had many tricks up her sleeves.
She shouldn’t be one of the unlucky two-thirds.
However, just as Meng Ruyan stood up, Lu Yuan pulled her back.
“Junior Brother, did you discover something?”
Lu Yuan shook his head, then looked outside the courtyard and said, “Senior Sister, don’t be anxious. Let’s take a look first.”
“Take a look?”
Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Meng Ruyan was confused.
Her current cultivation was at the Foundation Establishment Stage Level 8.
Furthermore, she was at wood, lightning and water spiritual root Foundation Establishment through the way of the heaven.
Even so, her spiritual sense could only cover at most the entrance of the courtyard, which was about 20 meters in radius.
However, Lu Yuan’s so-called ‘take a look’ undoubtedly meant that he wanted to see what other people’s situation was like.
This was not something that Lu Yuan could see as he wished. Instead, he needed his spiritual sense to be able to cover at least to the extent of other people’s courtyards.
This meant that the coverage of Lu Yuan’s spiritual sense had to be at least 25 meters.
And his practitioner partner’s cultivation was definitely not as high as hers.
However, to be able to possess such a cultivation level, she should say that he was indeed worthy of being the practitioner partner she had chosen. His talent was actually so outstanding.
Meng Ruyan was right. Lu Yuan’s idea was to see what would happen after someone opened the door.
As a steady person, how could he be the one to stand out?
And just as Lu Yuan thought, in a shop opposite his courtyard.
The door of the shop slowly opened….
