Myth Beyond Heaven

“Power of time? There’s someone that can actually use it?” Yun Lintian quickly reacted upon hearing this. As a novel reader, he was naturally familiar with such a term. However, he didn’t expect someone to possess it in real life.

“Did you remember what I told you before about the four great laws in the universe?” Hongyue asked.

“Of course. There are the laws of creation, destruction, time, and space.” Yun Lintian replied.

“So, do you think no one can master one of these laws after billions of years?” Hongyue said. “The power you see right now is just a bit of it, but even so, it’s already amazing.”

Yun Lintian frowned deeply. Although he had no idea about the law of time, he still understood its concept. If there was someone who could truly master this power, it was almost impossible to win such a person.

“G-Grandpa, what is going on here?” Shen Liqiu was confused. Everything she saw today was beyond her comprehension. First, the revelation of her clan’s origin and now this miraculous power.

“This is the ability that has been passed down through our clan’s bloodline. It’s a power of time.” Shen Tingguang answered. He took a deep look at Shen Liqiu and said. “You also have this power.”

“Me?” Shen Liqiu pointed at herself in disbelief. If she had such a power, who could be her opponent then?

Shen Tingguang seemed to see through her thoughts. He smiled and said. “Unfortunately, we cannot use this power in a battle… Well, perhaps you can do it one day.”

Shen Liqiu went silent, trying to digest the information.

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and asked. “Could it be everything that had happened in the past related to this power?”

Shen Tingguang shook his head. “I had the same idea as yours back then, but after carefully investigating, I fully believe it had nothing to do with the power of time… Whoever behind this didn’t seem to interfere with anything from the beginning to the present. It was as though everything was a natural cause.”

“As I said earlier, this world is like a box where someone can manipulate things inside. But after that person deployed the settings of this world, he had simply disappeared.”

He looked at Yun Lintian and said in a deep voice. “Not to mention, the previous two great wars might not be the first two. After all, we cannot deny that there’s a chance there were other incidents before the first record keeper appeared.”

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. This matter was getting more complicated to the point he didn’t know where to start. The re-emergence of the Abyssal Beasts was imminent, and it would certainly ignite another large-scale war, which was almost the same as the past great wars.

Moreover, all the characters also appeared. The current nine palaces and the Misty Cloud Sect resembled those powerful forces in the past, and Yun Lintian also happened to be one of the leading forces dealing with the Poison Valley, just like Yun Wushuang in the past.

If this was a movie, it could be said this was a remake movie with different casts but the same roles and plots.

“Any idea, Hongyue?” Yun Lintian had no choice but to ask Hongyue.

“I’m not joking with you, but this is beyond my comprehension as well,” Hongyue replied. “When I first arrived in this world, I didn’t find anything special. However, I found so many strange things since I left the mythical realm with you. Well, maybe it has existed for a long time, but I didn’t pay attention to it.”

“Lauya?” Yun Lintian asked further. Since Hongyue couldn’t perceive the outside world when she lived in the mythical realm, Lauya must know something. After all, although she stayed inside her own territory, she could still look to the outside world.

“If there’s anything strange about this world, it must be you, My King.” Lauya suddenly said.

“Me?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.

“Yes, you, My King,” Lauya responded. “You don’t belong to this world from the beginning. And everything that had happened until now is all revolved around you.”

“All the mythical realms here have existed for you. Not to mention the Heaven Piercing Sword. It has nothing to do with the Beyond Heaven King’s successor, but it still appeared here for you.”

“There are also Heavenly Cloud Mountain, Beyond Heaven King’s relatives like Yun Xia and the other villagers in the Cloud Village.” 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑙．𝑐𝘰𝘮

Lauya paused for a moment and said firmly. “Even if this world’s history is genuinely repeating itself, I don’t think there is an existence like you in the past… So, you are the strangest thing here out of all, My King.”

Yun Lintian frowned and asked. “What about that mysterious woman who set up all of this? The history repeating has nothing to do with her?”

“Maybe she knows something, but in my opinion, everything she did has nothing to do with this odd event,” Hongyue replied. Though she said she was uncertain, Yun Lintian could feel confidence in her voice. Clearly, she believed the mysterious woman had nothing to do with the history-repeating incident.

“Why don’t you tell me about her? Don’t tell me it’s not the time again.” Yun Lintian couldn’t help asking.

“Soon. You almost reach there.” Hongyue replied calmly.

Hearing this, Yun Lintian sighed helplessly in his heart. He really didn’t understand why everyone had to hide everything from him. Wouldn’t it be better if he knew it?

“Then, what is your purpose in leaving your residual soul here, Grandpa?” Shen Liqiu suddenly asked.

Shen Tingguang looked at his great-granddaughter and asked. “Do you know why I choose you to inherit the clan’s legacy instead of your father and grandfather?”

Without waiting for Shen Liqiu to reply, he said further. “It’s because all the previous record keepers were men.”

His words immediately puzzled Yun Lintian and Shen Liqiu. What was wrong with that?

Shen Tingguang said in a deep voice. “I want to change the odd, even if the chance is as close as zero.”

“Senior, you mean…?” Yun Lintian seemed to guess something.

Shen Tingguang nodded. “We, Shen Clan, are no different from everyone in this world. We are not standing above the whole situation… All the previous record keepers have also repeated the same fate… This time, I want to change it!”
