Myth Beyond Heaven

As Yun Lintian opened his eyes, he felt like he had become one with the Tree of Life. The threat of the black beam didn’t give him time to think much. He raised his head slightly to look at the incoming black beam, and his mind moved.

Sssii—

The Tree of Life behind Yun Lintian abruptly swayed, and several branches extended out before forming into a giant barrier above the village in the next split second. ．ｔ

BOOM!

A huge explosion burst out on top of the vine barrier, and the impact was swept to the side. Except for the shaky ground, everyone in the village was completely safe and sound.

The appearance of the vine shocked everyone, including Jue Kong. They quickly looked over at Yun Lintian and saw him slowly floating into the air with the help of a thick tree branch.

“Lintian!” Yun Huanxin was overjoyed. The trace of despair was nowhere to be seen now.

Iryena patted her abundant chest in relief. As long as the Tree of Life was here, there was a chance to deal with Jue Kong.

Yun Ruanyu was relieved, but she didn’t lower her guard in the slightest. She gave a reminder. “The enemy is still alive. Don’t lose your head.”

Yun Huanxin and Yun Lingwei returned to their senses and resumed their battle stance.

Yun Lintian looked around the place with a frown between his brows. Since Huoyun Zhu was here, where did Huoyun Yurou go to?

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. When he looked closely, he immediately recognized this person. Why did Lang Moxie appear here? Several questions appeared in his mind.

“Congratulations. The process is smoother than I thought.” Hongyue’s voice resounded in his mind.

Yun Lintian hurriedly asked. “What happened here?”

“What else? The so-called Dragon of Death awakened right when you lost your consciousness.” Hongyue curled her lips. “Also, that old woman sacrificed herself in order to buy time for you.”

“What!?” Yun Lintian’s heart tightened instantly. “You mean Huoyun Yurou?”

“Yeah. Unfortunately, that skeletal dragon has a big move on his sleeve. Otherwise, she could definitely kill it.” Hongyue said nonchalantly as if Huoyun Yurou’s life didn’t matter to her.

Yun Lintian subconsciously clenched his fists. He had never thought everything would turn out like this… He had failed to protect people around him again.

“You’ve got to accept this truth. You cannot protect everyone by yourself alone.” Hongyue suddenly said. “As you climb to a higher place, you will encounter a lot of these situations. It is unrealistic to want everyone around you to be safe and sound forever… Also, have you ever asked them whether they want your protection?”

Yun Lintian trembled. The scene where Xia Yao and Lin Qianxue sacrificed themselves for him emerged in his mind once again. He always believed he could protect them, but what was the result in the end? Perhaps he was indeed wrong, like Hongyue said…

Jue Kong looked at the vine barrier coldly. He already chose the best timing to get out of the confinement, yet this bitch Tree of Life could actually come back so timely.

“Hmph! Don’t think you can use the old trick to suppress me again.” Jue Kong said coldly, and several black dots appeared around his gigantic body before transforming into a rain of black light rushing toward the vine barrier.

Jue Kong’s voice immediately brought Yun Lintian back to his sense. His face turned icy, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

His mind moved, and the original vine barrier immediately changed its form, becoming a vast inverted umbrella shape and completely swallowing the incoming attacks.

At the same time, several thick vines shot out from the Tree of Life and went straight to Jue Kong before tightly wrapping around him.

Jue Kong was shocked. How could the Tree of Life become several times stronger than before? Wasn’t it declining significantly throughout these years?

“Roar!” Jue Kong let out a deafening roar and exerted his power to cut the vines. However, he immediately discovered the vines were too sturdy. No matter how hard he tried to get rid of them, it was futile in the end.

Yun Lintian floated in the air calmly with The Sun, The Moon, and The Thunder revolved around him. The Beyond Heaven King’s Crown appeared on his head. His current appearance was like a god looking down on all beings.

Rumble—

Thunder roarings filled the sky while a bright moon and sun appeared simultaneously.

“What is this?” Far away, Du Huanfeng looked at the bizarre scene with deep shock. He had never seen such a scene before. In front of this phenomenon, he felt as though he was a speck of dust, which he didn’t feel this way under Huoyun Yurou’s Heaven Tribulation.

“Young Master. Great Elder is on his way here. He’s likely to arrive here in a few hours.” Du San reported after putting the transmission jade away.

Du Huanfeng nodded slightly and said. “Hopefully, the Tree of Life is still there.”

Du San said nothing and paid attention to the gigantic figure in the far distance.

“This…” Guchang, Fan, and Mu Qiuxue stared at Yun Lintian in astonishment. The aura emitted from Yun Lintian somehow gave them the urge to kneel down. They felt as though they were lowly servants meeting an emperor for the first time.

Iryena didn’t hesitate in the slightest. She knelt on one knee directly and kept her head low, followed by all the villagers.

“Bastard!” Jue Kong roared angrily while struggling to get rid of the vines. The moon and the sun above his head gave him an ominous feeling that he had never felt before.

Yun Lintian slowly flew toward Jue Kong and arrived before him. His multicolored pupils stared straight into Jue Kong’s glowing eyes. He didn’t utter a word and kept staring like that.

Jue Kong was furious. How could an ant look down on him? He quickly opened his skeletal mouth, and black energy promptly gathered.

Seeing this, Yun Lintian’s mind moved, and another thick vine came forward, forcefully straining Jue Kong’s mouth, making him unable to release his power.

“It’s time to pay the price.” Yun Lintian said expressionlessly, but his voice was filled with boundless anger.
