Myth Beyond Heaven

The Great Xia Dynasty Capital City was at least twice larger than the capital city of the Great Zhou Kingdom and several times more crowded. Walking on the bustling street, Yun Lintian could see many strong practitioners along the way. Even a few Divine Kings could be seen here.

“It’s so lively here.” Ning Yue said while carefully chewing a sugar haw. Her eyes kept looking around curiously. She felt that the atmosphere in this city was better than any place she had gone to.

“Indeed.” Yun Lintian nodded in agreement.

“I’ve already contacted my people. We will leave right away.” Tian Hualing walked over and said. She was restless with the appearance of the earlier little girl and wanted to go back to the sect as soon as possible.

Although Yun Lintian wanted to stroll around for a while, he had no objection.

“Follow me.” Tian Hualing quickly shuttled through the crowd, heading toward the northern city gate.

Yun Lintian reached out to hold Ning Yue’s hand and swiftly followed Tian Hualing.

As they left, the little girl Yun Lintian had met earlier appeared on the street and stared at Yun Lintian’s disappearing back with a strange smile.

“Why are you here again, brat?” Suddenly, a familiar voice resounded from behind.

The little girl turned around and saw the fierce man who had chased after her previously standing there, looking at her vigilantly.

“Are you hungry again?” The fierce man asked.

The little girl smiled sweetly. “Yes.”

The fierce man’s face twitched slightly. He stared at the little girl for a while and sighed. He took a few hundred Divine Stones out and handed them to her. “Here. Take it.”

The little girl looked at the fierce man weirdly.

Seeing her expression, the fierce man said. “Don’t look at me like that. I just did my job previously. This is my apology to you.”

The little girl reached out to grab the Divine Stones and said with a sweet smile. “Thank you, uncle.”

She rummaged through her pocket and took an ordinary black stone out before handing it to the man. “This is my gift.”

The fierce man looked at the black-colored stone in his hand confusedly but didn’t reject it. “Alright. I’ll take it. You should go back. It’s dangerous running around like this.”

“Mhm!” The little girl nodded obediently and walked in Yun Lintian’s direction.

The fierce man watched as the little girl disappeared into the crowd and glanced at the stone again before putting away casually.

When he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a tingling feeling all over his body. It lasted for a brief moment and disappeared completely, along with the black stone in his pocket.

“What’s going on?” The fierce man frowned slightly. However, he didn’t find anything strange after carefully checking on his body.

“Forget it.” He shook his head and walked away.

The man had no idea that his profound vein was undergoing a huge transformation. It had become stronger and wider.

After leaving the city through the northern gate, Tian Hualing found a relatively remote place nearby and lightly pointed with her hand. A light flashed by, and a very thin ice crystal in a standard diamond-square shape about seven meters long appeared ahead of her.

As soon as it appeared, two women immediately emerged out of thin air ahead of her.

“Supreme elder.” The two women bowed toward Tian Hualing respectfully. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝑔

“Let’s go.” Tian Hualing said calmly. Her demeanor seemed to change completely from a gentle-looking to an aloof woman.

The two women made a few hand seals, and a huge flying boat appeared in the vacant space nearby.

Tian Hualing jumped onto the boat and beckoned Yun Lintian. “Come up.”

Yun Lintian looked at the blue-colored flying boat with great interest. He wasn’t sure which one was better between this boat and his profound skyship.

He grabbed Ning Yue and jumped onto the boat under the two women’s curious gazes.

After the two women got onto the boat, they quickly went to the cockpit and immediately set off. The flying boat floated into the air and flew toward the endless world.

Mountains, forests, long rivers… This was an exuberant world worthy of traveling around.

Compared to the Chu Country and the Great Zhou Kingdom, the aura in this place was incredibly thick and abundant. Every pore on Yun Lintian’s body involuntarily opened up, greedily absorbing the surrounding divine energy. He felt more and more comfortable as if he was in a dreamy fairytale land.

“The Heavenhold Sect was located at the center of the realm with the highest aura concentration. It’s several times higher than what you’re experiencing right now.” Tian Hualing took the initiative to introduce.

Yun Lintian asked. “Do I need to do something after becoming the Realm King’s disciple?”

“Generally, you don’t have to do anything unless an expected circumstance occurred.” Tian Hualing replied.

“What kind of circumstance?” Yun Lintian asked further.

“For example, a group of bandits appears, or a secret realm opens.” Tian Hualing answered.

“I see.” Yun Lintian nodded slightly.

Tian Hualing glanced at him and said. “Presumably, Young Miss Shen should have told you about it already. Being a disciple of our Realm King means that you’re a future successor. Even if you don’t do anything, someone will eventually look for trouble.”

Yun Lintian sighed softly. “To tell you the truth, if it wasn’t for your secret land, I won’t care about your sect or this Heavenhold Realm at all. Let alone be involved in your sect’s boring politics.”

“But since she’s accepting me as her disciple, I will try my best to fulfill my duty.”

Tian Hualing took a deep look at him and said. “That’s more than enough.”

Before this, she had to admit that she looked down on Yun Lintian as she thought he relied on his connection through Shen Yan.

However, the way she looked at him changed entirely after witnessing his abnormal strength. With such power, any Divine Emperors or God Emperors would certainly take him as their disciple. Tian Hualing even felt that her Heavenhold Sect won the lottery this time.

Whether Yun Lintian wanted to fulfill his duty, Tian Hualing didn’t care about it at all. As long as he was there, the position of her master, Tian Yuhan, would be more or less stable…
