Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2011 The Kunlun God Tomb (1)

After walking for a few minutes, the dense foliage thinned, revealing a clearing bathed in an ethereal glow. Tendrils of mist swirled around a jagged, volcanic rockface, its surface shimmering faintly.

Yun Lintian looked ahead, spotting several spatial vortexes hanging in the air, each representing a distinct secret realm.

“These are the entrances to all the secret realms within the Kunlun Mountains,” Lin Feng began his explanation. “We can only open three of them at present. We haven’t found a way to access the others yet.”

Yun Lintian recalled the information from the map he’d seen and soon noticed a solitary boulder a hundred meters away to his right. At first glance, it appeared to be nothing more than an ordinary stone.

Lin Yitong walked towards the boulder and reached out to touch it. However, nothing happened. It was as if the boulder refused to acknowledge her power. .𝘤𝘰

“May I try, Senior?” Lin Feng asked cautiously.

With Lin Yitong’s permission, Lin Feng approached the boulder and channeled his power into it. The triangle symbol on his forehead glowed brightly, and his entire body emitted an azure light.

Yet, nothing transpired. Lin Feng, puzzled, kept trying, but the boulder remained inert. This made him doubt whether it was indeed the tomb’s entrance.

Lin Yitong glanced at Yun Lintian without a word. If anyone could open the entrance, it had to be him.

Yue Shen had also observed this scene. Her gaze on Yun Lintian intensified, recognizing his seemingly extraordinary status.

Yun Lintian said nothing and walked forward.

A bone-chilling wind suddenly whipped across everyone, tearing at their robes. The sea of white clouds around the mountains churned violently.

This abrupt change startled everyone. Lin Feng glanced at Yun Lintian with surprise. He immediately realized that the young man he had overlooked possessed something unique.

Subconsciously, Lin Feng stepped aside, allowing Yun Lintian to reach the boulder.

Yun Lintian reached out to touch the cool, weathered surface. When his hand landed, ancient text immediately surfaced on the boulder, resembling a celestial map with swirling constellations etched in an unknown language. Yun Lintian traced the grooves with his fingers, channeling his divine energy.

The air crackled with unseen energy in response to his touch. A low hum resonated from deep within the mountain, steadily growing louder until it vibrated through his very core.

A blinding light erupted from the inscription, forcing Yun Lintian to shield his eyes. The boulder itself groaned, cracks splitting across its surface. With a deafening roar, it split open, revealing not a hollow interior but a swirling vortex of jade-green light.

The air shimmered with otherworldly energy, carrying the faint scent of rain and wildflowers. This was it. The entrance to the legendary Kunlun God Tomb, a secret realm lost to time.

A tremor of nervous excitement ran through Lin Feng and the other sect masters. Their reverence for the Kunlun God flowed through their veins. Their greatest desire – witnessing the Kunlun God’s remains – was now within reach.

“This is the map.” Lin Yitong spoke, and a map of the tomb materialized in the air, allowing Lin Feng and the other sect masters to commit it to memory.

“We are deeply grateful for your generosity, Senior,” Lin Feng expressed sincerely. He turned to Yun Lintian. “Sir…”

Before Lin Feng could complete his sentence, Yun Lintian calmly interjected, “I’ll claim the treasures.”

Lin Feng, stunned, quickly replied, “That is only natural. However, we hope you can preserve the Kunlun God’s remains here. We have no other interest.”

“Sure,” Yun Lintian readily agreed. He had no desire for the Kunlun God’s remains anyway.

He reached out to touch the vortex, channeling his divine energy. The emerald vortex pulsed with an otherworldly hum, its tendrils of light reaching for Yun Lintian’s outstretched hand.

“You may enter,” Yun Lintian announced calmly.

“Please, Senior,” Lin Feng gestured to Lin Yitong, inviting her in.

Lin Yitong, without a word, led Long Qingxuan and the others into the emerald vortex, followed by Lin Feng, Hou Jinyang, Yu Xinlan, and Yue Shen.

As Yue Shen passed Yun Lintian, she couldn’t resist stealing another glance at him before disappearing into the vortex.

Unfazed by Yue Shen’s reaction, Yun Lintian plunged his hand into the vortex. The world dissolved into a swirling kaleidoscope of emerald light. Disorientation washed over him, a sickening sensation of weightlessness followed by a jarring impact. When his vision cleared, he found himself amidst a scene straight out of a celestial painting.

Towering jade pillars, each etched with intricate symbols that pulsed with an ethereal glow, reached towards a sky painted with swirling nebulae. Lush vegetation, vibrant beyond imagination, carpeted the ground, the air thick with the sweet fragrance of unknown flowers.

In the distance, a majestic city shimmered like a mirage, its spires adorned with shimmering crystals that refracted the otherworldly light.

Yun Lintian couldn’t help but marvel. This wasn’t just a tomb; it was clearly a mega city, untouched by the ravages of time.

Everyone recalled the map in their minds, only to find it didn’t align with the colossal city before them.

“Our spiritual sense is suppressed here,” Yu Xinlan spoke up.

“I can feel the Kunlun God’s aura,” Lin Feng said with reverence. “This place is undoubtedly his eternal resting chamber.”

“That towering structure there might be what the map described,” Hou Jinyang pointed at the central tower of the city.

Lin Yitong exchanged a brief glance with Yun Lintian before leading everyone towards the city.

The colossal city, dwarfing anything they had ever witnessed, sprawled across a vast plain. Towering structures, impossibly tall and crafted from a material that shimmered with otherworldly hues, pierced the sky like celestial spears.

Jade walkways, wide enough for ten carriages abreast, crisscrossed the city, connecting a network of colossal buildings adorned with intricate carvings depicting mythical beasts and celestial landscapes.

The air itself buzzed with an unseen energy, a potent cocktail of spiritual essence far richer than anything they had ever encountered in the outside world.

As they entered the city, they immediately spotted various dried skeletons scattered on the streets, alongside scattered spirit weapons. It was as if a civilization here had been wiped out overnight.

“We can explore independently,” Lin Yitong announced, glancing at Lin Feng’s group.

Understanding her subtle dismissal, Lin Feng and the others cupped their fists. “Thank you, Senior. We will take our leave now.”

“Where should we start with?” Lin Yitong glanced at Yun Lintian after Lin Feng’s group left.

“Explore the city first and see what we can take away.” Yun Lintian made a decision.
