Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

There is a kind of truth in the world, which is the false truth in the passing of time. There is a kind of chess game in the world, which is a game where the ocean can change but the chess pieces remain unchanged.

Ji Xuanyan and the old Taoist priest live in such a truth and chess game.

One thinks he is incomparable in mind, another thinks he has seen through everything in the world after thousands of years. People like them cannot see through or escape the situation. How can the common people in this world escape the fate of being manipulated?

But can we blame ordinary people for this? What they know is false from the beginning, and they are dispensable pawns in the game of the world since they were born!

So, in a sense, the Way of Heaven is not as illusory as people say. The Way of Heaven itself does not exist! Because any Way of Heaven will be trapped in the cage of the human heart.

Xuantian Pavilion, which proved the ten ways of the world, has fallen, hasn't it? It once hung high above the nine heavens, but it has disappeared after a thousand years. So what is the meaning of seeking to prove the way of heaven?

Having said that, I have to say one more thing. The Stargazing Mountain, which is now hanging high above the sky, will probably have the same ending!

Hey! Who would have thought that the Ouyang family's world-famous Emperor Sword Atlas would actually be the heart-testing stone of the Dusk Temple? It would be a sword of revenge, and a sword that kills without bloodshed!

Let's just assume that this is the case, because Ouyang Xiangzhi believes this, and the Ouyang family also does this. In Ouyang Xiangzhi's eyes, the Emperor Sword Atlas is her sword of revenge.

The interesting thing is, these two swords were painstakingly forged by the two Ouyang clans themselves, which is really ridiculous!

Ouyang Xiangzhi was very excited when he saw the gradual decline of Ouyang's hidden lineage. Now, Ouyang's revealed lineage had also forged another Half-Emperor Sword.

Ouyang Zhengxiong would never have dreamed that the forging of the Half-Emperor Sword was a plot set up by someone else, and that this plot had been in place for hundreds of years.

The location of Fushu Valley was of course told to the Ouyang family in Jianying City by Ouyang Xiangzhi. The purpose was simple, which was to let Ouyang Zhengxiong's Half-Emperor Sword be stained with the blood of the Ouyang Hidden World lineage.

What Ouyang Zhengxiong could not have imagined was that what happened in the vast desert decades ago was not as simple as the Ji family's plan. It was also related to Ouyang Xiangzhi!

Because Ouyang Zhengxiong's father refused to forge the Half-Emperor Sword for decades. His father was not only upright, but also could see that this half of the Emperor Sword Map was an evil object. So no matter how Ouyang Xiangzhi fanned the flames, Ouyang Zhengxiong's father refused to forge the Half-Emperor Sword. In the end, there was a bloody fight between the Hanhai Desert and the Blood Shadow Clan!

Of course there is a hidden power behind Ouyang Xiangzhi, and that is the Xuantian Pavilion that helped her set up the teleportation formation!

The real planner of Jianying City is Xuantian Pavilion! And this plan has been set for nearly a thousand years. It started when the Ouyang family walked out of the Dry Bone Mountain!

As for the target, Xuantian Sect! Ji Family! And the Ouyang Family is just a small chess piece. In fact, there is another target, which is Mu Temple!

The old Taoist priest on Guanxing Mountain guessed correctly that Xuantian Pavilion fell on its own initiative a thousand years ago, because Xuantian Pavilion discovered that there was a force behind the rebellion of the Eight Sects of Xuantian. At first, Xuantian Pavilion thought it was the Ji family of Zhongzhou, but after several fights, they found that it was not right, because there was actually the shadow of someone from the Mingjie behind it!

Xuantian Pavilion finally decided to hide in the dark and fell on its own initiative, creating an illusion that the pavilion was destroyed and people were killed. In the end, the power behind the Eight Sects of Xuantian was discovered - Mu Temple!

However, Xuantian Pavilion could not find out where Mu Miao's power came from, nor could it find out what Mu Miao was doing. However, Xuantian Pavilion still found out some things.

That is, the Mu Temple is related to the Fengling Tower under the Ji family's emperor tree, and to the Chihuo clan in the ancient Miao domain, and it is also related to Manghuang. However, Xuantian Pavilion cannot find out anything specific, because Fengling Tower, the Chihuo clan, and the ancient Manghuang clan really never participate in worldly affairs, or it can be said that these places are beyond the reach of Xuantian Pavilion's power!

There is more! Xuantian Pavilion can't find it, that is the sea aquatic creatures, the sea aquatic creatures that have been isolated from the human world for ten thousand years!

After all, Xuantian Pavilion is only a thousand years old, but what about Mu Temple? It seems to be a product of the previous era!

In a sense, Xuantian Pavilion was not wrong because they were also looking for answers!

Why did Xuantian Pavilion have to be destroyed after the battle between good and evil, when the world was at peace? This is the game between two things in the long river of time, human heart and heaven.

The purpose of Xuantian Pavilion is to believe that the Way of Heaven should be above human hearts, so Xuantian Pavilion is suspended high above the nine heavens. As for the Mu Temple found by Xuantian Pavilion, no one knows what it is for, because the Mu Temple seems to exist and not exist!

That's too far-fetched! Let's talk about Ouyang Xiangzhi.

Ouyang Xiangzhi was guarding inside the Mu Temple, actually he was waiting for Shen Yichen. It cannot be said that he was waiting for Shen Yichen, but he was waiting for someone who could enter the Mu Temple.

In fact, it was not Ouyang Xiangzhi who was waiting. This was a deal between her and Xuantian Pavilion. She waited for the people who entered the Mu Temple on behalf of Xuantian Pavilion, and Xuantian Pavilion helped her to take revenge.

Outside the temple, Ouyang Hanqing was not afraid, but looked at Ouyang Xiangzhi and said softly:

"Senior, I'm helping you deal with the Ouyang family. I'm not helping you for no reason, am I?"

Ouyang Xiangzhi looked at Ouyang Hanqing with some contempt and said coldly:

"I know what you mean, but I don't care at all! Even if I was used, I was willing. Do you know how our lineage withered? Do you know that hundreds of years later, a family of cultivators has fallen into the sorrow of ordinary people? This is all thanks to your two lines!"

Ouyang Xiangzhi certainly thought that the person who took the initiative to help her revenge had other purposes, but that was just a deal. As the guardians of the Mu Temple, the Ouyang family was exterminated because of the Mu Temple. But what about the Mu Temple? It never showed up from beginning to end.

All guardians of Ouyang Xiangzhi's lineage have hatred in their hearts, not only towards the two branches of the Ouyang family, but also towards the Mu Temple!

Therefore, since Ouyang Xiangzhi became the guardian of the Dusk Temple, she has not shown any rejection or suspicion towards those who came to her for cooperation, because revenge is all she has in her heart. She doesn't care who the person she cooperates with is or what their purpose is. It has nothing to do with her revenge!

Ouyang Xiangzhi is her lineage's last hope for revenge, there is no one to succeed her!

"Hey, does hatred make people so crazy? After all, we are from the same family!"

Ouyang Hanqing felt very sad, not for one person, but for the entire Ouyang family. All three clans were the same! How sad! All three clans of Ouyang were pawns, and now it seemed that they were all dead pawns!

But Ouyang Hanqing couldn't see clearly, was Sanmai's death due to the Emperor Sword Map or the person who planned it?

Not only Ouyang Hanqing couldn't see through it, even Xuantian Pavilion itself, who planned it, couldn't see through it, because after hundreds of years of planning, no one from Mu Temple showed up. This was too weird!

However, Xuantian Pavilion is still making plans, because Xuantian Pavilion is seeking revenge, against the Ji family, against the eight Xuantian sects that betrayed them, and against the hearts of the people in the world!

Xuantian Pavilion wants to show the world again that the way of heaven should be above the human heart!

All of this was planned brilliantly by Xuantian Pavilion. Because Xuantian Pavilion never showed up from beginning to end, outsiders could not find any trace of Xuantian Pavilion at all.

Xuantian Pavilion allowed things to develop naturally. The only thing Xuantian Pavilion did was to let Ouyang Xiangzhi stay in the Mu Temple. The teleportation formation that Xuantian Pavilion arranged for her was still the method of the Eight Sects of Xuantian. All the rest were the natural changes in people's hearts!

The two Ouyang veins guarded the Imperial Sword Atlas, and there would always be a day when they would be moved. Hundreds of years later, they finally forged the Half-Emperor Sword. This was all due to the changes in the minds of the people of the two veins, and there was no external force at all!

Xuantian Pavilion wants to tell the world through this incident that human hearts must be restrained by the power of heaven! Unrestrained human hearts are the source of disasters in the world!

As for the incident in the vast sea and desert, that was something the Ji family took the initiative to do. The Ji family did it for the Sea Crystal Pearl, but Xuantian Pavilion knew that the Sea Crystal Pearl was related to the aquatic creatures in the sea, so Xuantian Pavilion has always suspected that there must be problems within the Ji family. Of course, there is also the shadow of Mu Miao, but this is just Xuantian Pavilion's guess!

Xuantian Pavilion, which has been planned for hundreds of years, is like a cat, but where are the bait and fish? They are all put by Mu Miao himself. Xuantian Pavilion really doesn't know what fish it is catching. They are also waiting. Now a fish has appeared, that is Shen Yichen.

After a thousand years, someone finally walked into the Mu Temple, and finally someone truly came into contact with the Mu Temple!

But the things in the world are really wonderful, because Shen Yichen is a chess piece, and all forces think that he is their chess piece! Ji Qingyun thinks so, Xuantian Pavilion thinks so, and his master, the stinky Taoist priest, thinks so, because all forces have made moves on Shen Yichen, but Shen Yichen doesn't know it!

So Shen Yichen's entry into the Mu Temple was really dramatic! However, there was one thing that Xuantian Pavilion miscalculated, that is, Ouyang Xiangzhi was going to die today, and Xuantian Pavilion might not know that it was Shen Yichen who entered the Mu Temple!

Outside the temple, Ouyang Hanqing learned the whole story during this disaster. He looked up at Ouyang Xiangzhi again and said softly:

"If I'm not mistaken, Ouyang Zhengxiong also forged the Half-Emperor Sword, right?"

"You are really smart. If you had stayed in hiding, I would never have been able to find you in my lifetime!"

Ouyang Xiangzhi had some admiration for Ouyang Hanqing. She did not rush to take action, but instead said:

"Do you want revenge? Ouyang Zhengxiong used the blood of all the members of the Ouyang Hidden World lineage to forge the Half-Emperor Sword. Don't you have any hatred in your heart? Beg me, maybe I will give you a chance to take revenge with your own hands!"

Ouyang Hanqing did not respond. He knew that he was just a plaything, a plaything for revenge! He lowered his head and muttered to himself:

"So many people died in Yingzhou, and that blood was not for the bloodthirsty magic. Sigh! The human heart is really hard to figure out!"

"Since you don't want to, I will use this holy sword, Dailan, to kill you first, and then help you slaughter your enemies!"

Ouyang Hanqing sneered:

"Senior, how did I survive in the world of cultivation? It's actually just one skill: showing weakness to the enemy!"

After Ouyang Hanqing finished speaking, a faint light flashed in his hand, and the Holy Sword Dailan returned to his hand. The aura around him continued to rise. He didn't want to die!

"Ouyang Hanqing, this is quite interesting. You must be here to ask for the Netherworld Killing Technique, right? Do you think I don't know? I'll let you see it, so you can die without regrets!"

After Ouyang Xiangzhi finished speaking, several short swords behind him flew into the void, and soon formed a circular sword formation above Ouyang Hanqing's head. These were real swords, not sword energy, nor phantom swords. There were a total of sixteen swords!

At this critical moment, another person came outside the Die Temple. This person did not seem to be affected by the sword energy of the two people, and flew and landed in front of the Die Temple!

"Where are the people? They should be here. Can you two stop fighting? Your sword energy is blocking my ability to detect auras!"

Outside the temple, the storyteller Wan Ning looked at Ouyang Hanqing innocently. When she looked up and saw Ouyang Xiangzhi, she was shocked!
