Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1189 Burial Ground (1)



Scree—

The phoenix’s cry resonated as the flame cluster traveled across the passage and engulfed the Shadow Monster entirely.

“Arghhh!” The Shadow Monster screamed painfully as its shadowy body was burning. The scream lasted for ten seconds before gradually subsided, and the shadowy figure was nowhere to be seen.

Yun Lintian threw a few fireballs in the distance to check whether the enemy was still there. However, except for the scattered arrows, nothing could be seen. It was as if the Shadow Monster had never appeared before.

“This monster is not strong, but it’s very difficult to detect. Our Spiritual Sense is useless against it.” Nantian Fengyu said with a frown.

“It can also ignore the residual lightning energy I left in the arrows. This will be troublesome to guard against it.” Yun Lintian said while touching his chin.

At this moment, Qingqing seemed to see something and pointed at the path behind. “Big Brother Yun, look.”

Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu turned around and were immediately taken aback. The original single passage suddenly turned into four passages without them knowing… What the hell was this?

“Can you still feel the aura, Linlin?” Yun Lintian asked.

“Not anymore,” Linlin replied in confusion. “It’s like our position has completely changed.”

Yun Lintian frowned deeply and scanned the place through the Eyes of Heaven carefully. The scene surprised him greatly. Except for the profound energy flow, another energy flow came into his vision. It was yellow in color. Without a doubt, it was the earth energy.

After obtaining The Earth, Yun Lintian had never used it properly as its power was a bit weak. Furthermore, most of the earth-related techniques were inclined toward a defense, which was pretty much useless for him as he didn’t have the chance to use it.

Thinking of this, Yun Lintian squatted down, placing his hand on the ground and trying to feel the source of the earth energy.

Soon, he opened his eyes, and a trace of surprise could be seen in them. “There is an earth vein ahead in the second from the left passage. And it’s the best-grade one.”

“Best grade Earth vein?” Nantian Fengyu was surprised.

To her knowledge, the Earth Vein contained pure earth energy. It could be used as an energy source for any formation as well as for improving the land. The higher the quality of the vein, the purer energy it could emit.

Normally, a low-grade one was already regarded as a rare heaven and earth treasure, but Yun Lintian actually said it was the best grade one. Once this best-grade Earth Vein went out, it could easily cause a bloodbath.

“However, such a thing definitely has a trap around it. Otherwise, it won’t be able to last this long.” Yun Lintian said.

“Do you want to go?” Nantian Fengyu asked.

Yun Lintian said with a frown. “I can’t feel anything from the other three passages. Instead of walking blindly, we better choose the one we know.”

He looked around and said further. “This place is like a giant maze. It definitely has an energy source. Maybe this Earth Vein can give us some clues.”

“Let’s go.” After checking carefully for one last time, Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu immediately walked into the said passage.

This time, Yun Lintian deliberately stopped after passing through the entrance. Sure enough. The moment he stepped into the passage, the entrance behind instantly closed, becoming a dead end with no way to retreat.

This scene immediately gave Yun Lintian an idea. As someone who studied the Myriad Formation Scripture for a long time, he naturally knew a lot about the formations.

This kind of maze-like position-changing formation was one of the highest-rank formations in the Divine Realm. It was known as Labyrinth Formation.

The Labyrinth Formation was extremely popular among the Divine Realm’s practitioners. It was often used to protect their treasury or fortress.

The only downside of this formation was that it consumed a hefty amount of energy. Not to mention a formation master on that level was very difficult to find. Hence, only those huge clans could afford to deploy it.

Yun Lintian’s brows involuntarily creased together when he thought of this. If this was the Labyrinth Formation as he guessed, it would be extremely troublesome because the only way to break it was to find the energy source.

Boom! .

While Yun Lintian was thinking, Nantian Fengyu noticed another Shadow Monster approaching them. She didn’t hesitate to launch her attack on it.

“Hmm?” Nantian Fengyu suddenly noticed that this Shadow Monster was stronger than the last one. Her earlier attack could easily kill any Ruler Profound Realm’s practitioner, but this Shadow Monster could actually resist it.

“How about this?”

Suddenly, a pair of fiery phoenix wings appeared behind Nantian Fengyu. She quickly flapped them, sending a storm of fiery feathers toward the Shadow Monster.

This time, the Shadow Monster was immediately torn apart and disappeared, along with a painful scream.

“This one’s strength is on the same level as the middle level of the Saint Profound Realm’s practitioner.” Nantian Fengyu said while retracting the wings.

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. “It seems my guess is correct. There should be some guardians protecting the Earth Vein. Let’s go.”

Yun Lintian didn’t hesitate to cover himself and Nantian Fengyu with the Divine Phoenix flame clusters and move forward along the passage.

The deeper they went in, the more Shadow Monsters they encountered. This further confirmed Yun Lintian’s conjecture.

After walking for a full ten minutes, Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu immediately arrived at a lush open space filled with grasses. A small pond could be seen in the middle, but the water inside was pitch-black, exuding an unpleasant smell.

Yun Lintian stopped Nantian Fengyu from moving forward and carefully scanned the place through the Eyes of Heaven.

Immediately, his expression turned solemn as he discovered countless bones beneath these grasses. Most of them were buried here for ages, while a small portion was very recent.

Furthermore, Yun Lintian could see a terrifying aura coming from them. Without a doubt, they were definitely Divine Realm’s practitioners and very powerful ones. Perhaps some of them had even reached the Divine Emperor Realm!
