Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1606 Final Stage (1)

Bang!

Wu Zengqi fell to the ground and struggled to stand up. He glanced at the deep cutting wound on his chest and turned to face Yun Lintian. “I must admit, you managed to surprise me in the end.”

He took a deep look at Yun Lintian and continued speaking. “I lost.”

A wry smile appeared on Yun Lintian’s face as he responded. “It’s only because Senior doesn’t know my moves. If we fight again, I don’t think I can win.”

“You don’t have to look down on yourself. In reality, most people have no idea about their opponents’ cards.” Wu Zengqi said with a smile. “Unfortunately, my strength is limited and you are too young. Given a few thousand years, you will definitely become as strong as your master.”

Yun Lintian popped healing pills into his mouth and said. “I now understand why people cannot pass the trials here.”

“In fact, it’s not as difficult as you imagined. If everyone were given a second chance, most of them would certainly succeed.” Wu Zengqi shook his head.

“Why is that, Senior?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.

“You will understand when you reach the next stage.” Wu Zengqi said calmly. “Oh. I have to tell you that two people entered the tower before you have already reached the top floor.”

Yun Lintian was shocked. “How could they do it?”

“Both of them came prepared. They had a lot of life-saving means. Basically, they continued to use them against their opponents.” Wu Zengqi explained.

Yun Lintian was dumbfounded. All the opponents would progressively become stronger at each stage, yet these two people managed to pass by continuously spamming their trump cards… It was clearly cheating.

“One of the two appears to be in a relationship with Ling Yongheng. He should be his son.” Wu Zengqi spoke. “This person appears to possess extensive knowledge of the tower, enabling him to effortlessly navigate through all the trials.”

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. Even though Ling Zemin knew everything about the trials, he couldn’t choose his opponents himself, could he?

“Do you remember the first trial? The dream realm.” Wu Zengqi asked. Seeing Yun Lintian nod, he continued speaking. “The longer you stay inside, the more powerful opponents you will face. If my guess is correct, you probably stay there for a very long time.”

Yun Lintian was shocked. “There was such a thing?”

Wu Zengqi nodded gently. “The two people on the top floor successfully completed the first trial in just one day. It’s around half a year in the dream realm. They are the fastest ones I have ever seen. Even your master spent a week on it. I believe they do have something to wake them up.”

He paused for a moment and then continued. “Like I said. They came prepared.”

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. He spent sixteen years inside the dream realm, which equated to thirty-two days in the real world. It was no wonder he faced all-powerful opponents.

“Who is the other person?” Yun Lintian asked. It was understandable that Ling Zemin inherited his father’s experience. Who was another person beside him?

“He is a young man who harnesses the power of the stars.” Wu Zengqi spoke.

“Xing Liuxian… How?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.

“You must be careful of this person. He has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.” Wu Zengqi said with a serious expression.

“I will.” Yun Lintian responded. He was puzzled in his heart as to how Xing Liuxian managed to climb to the top floor. Did he use a divination technique?

“Rest well. Your next opponent will be stronger than everyone you have faced inside the tower combined.” Wu Zengqi said in a deep voice. “I don’t know if you can leave this place, but I hope that one day you will be able to visit my Heavenly Martial Realm and inform my family about me.”

“I will try.” Yun Lintian didn’t dare to accept his request because he had no idea if he could leave the Divine Realm.

“My time is up. I wish you good luck.” Wu Zengqi said with a smile as his body gradually disappeared.

“Farewell, Senior.” Yun Lintian cupped his fists and respectfully watched as Wu Zengqi completely vanished from the place.

A burning sensation emerged on the back of his right hand, and another triangular mark appeared, connecting with the original three. There was only one mark missing to complete the star mark.

Yun Lintian took a deep breath and closed his eyes, recuperating.

***

On the top floor, Ling Zemin thoroughly searched the entire hall for a long time but couldn’t find anything noteworthy except for the Light Pole. Where did the things that the Beyond Heaven King had left behind go? .

At the corner of the hall, Xing Liuxian opened his eyes and looked at Ling Zemin strangely. “I’m afraid someone might have already taken it away.”

Ling Zemin frowned slightly. There was indeed a possibility regarding this.

“The Sea of Stars connects to numerous realms beyond the Divine Realm. There shouldn’t be only three people who have ever successfully left this place.” Xing Liuxian continued speaking.

Ling Zemin turned to look at him and asked. “I’m curious. How did you pass all the trials? Especially the last one.”

Xing Liuxian smiled faintly. “Everyone has secrets. I believe Brother Ling has them too.”

Ling Zemin smiled coldly and said. “It seems like your father gave you a lot of things.”

Xing Liuxian offered no explanation. He closed his eyes and continued to absorb the star energy.

Ling Zemin snorted inwardly and turned to look at the Light Pole. Without further thought, he walked towards it.

Xing Liuxian abruptly opened his eyes when he noticed this. He attentively watched as Ling Zemin approached the light pillar.

The closer Ling Zemin got to the light pillar, the stronger the surrounding pressure became. At this moment, he felt as if he was being surrounded by countless mountains and thrown into a deep sea. He felt like his body could explode at any moment.

Bang!

Suddenly, Ling Zemin was blasted away by an irresistible force and landed in the corner of the hall. He stood up from the ground and gazed solemnly at the pillar of light. There must be a way to take the Light Pole away.

Three days later, Yun Lintian stood in front of yet another bronze door. Behind the door was the final opponent he would face here. He took a deep breath and pushed open the door.

The moment he walked inside, his entire body immediately froze in place as he saw a figure standing there… The appearance of the figure was identical to his own!
