Myth Beyond Heaven

There had been no change in any aura, no strange sounds, and no premonitions or omens of this happening, but the light in the sky suddenly grew incomparably dim. Everyone involuntarily raised their heads as expressions of shock and astonishment swiftly spread across everyone’s faces.

In the blue dome of heaven above them, black clouds began to roil and gather. They seemed boundless and endless as they engulfed all light in the sky.

The Divine Emperors and the Shen Clan members all slowly got to their feet one after the other. Everyone knitted their brows together tightly because they couldn’t detect where the black clouds came from. To go from a clear blue sky to a completely overcast sky, all of this happened in just one instant… One inexplicable and incomparably bizarre instant.

The black clouds roiled about, dark and heavy, and it became nearly impossible to see in the blink of an eye. Furthermore, the people gathered at the arena did not know one thing. They were unaware that dark clouds had also covered the sky above the entire Central Divine Region at that moment.

The dark clouds churned and slowly started to press down from above. It was just as if a devil god had suddenly awakened and cast the entire Central Divine Region into a dark abyss. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩

Rumble—

Purple colored lightnings flashed across the sky, accompanied by thunder roarings threatening to destroy the world.

Those around the arena were completely filled with panic as the sky got darker and darker. Even with the eyesight of these experts, they were still unable to see their hands clearly.

At the same time, an incomparably oppressive and stifling feeling seemed to come pressing down from the sky, getting heavier and heavier as time went by, making everyone feel like their souls were shaking uncontrollably from being suffocated.

It gave off a terrible feeling as if the whole sky was on the verge of caving in and swallowing up all life.

“This… The Heavenly Tribulation?” Shen Yimu uttered in shock as he couldn’t be more familiar with this life-threatening aura. Without a doubt, it was the Heavenly Tribulation.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM—

Black clouds continued to roll in, constantly thickening and forming a dense mass over everyone’s heads and hearts. The throbbing in their hearts caused by this irresistible oppression made them feel suffocated.

The entire Central Divine Region was caught up in the middle of a chaotic panic. They looked up at the pitch-black sky, where endless black clouds seemed to portend the coming of judgment day.

Standing on top of the moon palace, Yue Hua looked at the black sky. Her cloudy eyes flashed with a trace of wisdom as she spoke to herself. “The new era has come, and the ending is near.”

Inside the garden, Ren Yuan looked at the black sky thoughtfully and muttered to himself. “Is this your card?”

A similar scene occurred around the Central Divine Region. All the God Emperors and Divine Emperors couldn’t comprehend the situation. They could only activate their realms’ protective measures, preparing for whatever was about to come.

At this moment, Yun Lintian’s aura quickly climbed up as the divine energy within his profound vein stirred and expanded restlessly like a fearsome wild beast locked away in a cage, struggling violently but unable to escape.

At the same time, a gust of bizarrely pressuring might encompassed his entire body. His consciousness was incomparably firm and clear. Yun Lintian didn’t care about what happened around him, as he solely focused on attacking the barrier of the Divine Tribulation Realm.

Being closest to Yun Lintian, Shen Yimu could feel the momentum continuously brewing inside Yun Lintian’s body. He could, in fact, interrupt Yun Lintian, but his body stood stiffly in place, unable to move forward. The source of fear in his heart came from the frightening feeling in the sky. It was as if he would turn into ashes directly as long as he took a half step forward.

A peak Divine Emperor and the first protector of the Mystic God Realm, Shen Yimu started to retreat, trying to distance himself from Yun Lintian as much as possible.

“So this is his trump card…” Shen Yan murmured to herself. She could only stare at the black sky without the ability to move herself. It was as if all of her strength was drained out.

Shen Yan had thought of various possibilities, but the Heavenly Tribulation wasn’t one. She could feel that once the tribulation started, the entire Mystic God Realm would turn into ruins.

A beam of purple light suddenly flashed.

In this oppressively dark world, this flash of purple light obviously attracted everyone’s attention immediately, causing everyone’s gaze to fall upon its origin. Right where they were looking, where two pieces of dark clouds came into contact, the bright streak of purple light left a trace of lightning.

Then three, five, ten, one hundred… countless lightning traces converged together to form a humongous lightning domain.

“This…”

Looking at the sky filled with lightning, everyone around the arena felt as though their soul was being sucked away. As much as they wanted to run, they found themselves unable to make a single step.

Seeing this, Shan Mujin shifted his gaze onto Yun Lintian. With a flick of his hand, a sharp invisible blade shot toward Yun Lintian’s abdomen, aiming to cripple him in one fell swoop.

The power of a God Emperor wasn’t something the current Yun Lintian could resist, even though Shan Mujin only used ten percent of his power in this attack.

The invisible blade traveled across space and appeared before Yun Lintian. Just as it was about to pierce into his Divine Core, the Heaven Piercing Sword abruptly appeared out of thin air and blocked the blade by itself.

Boom!

The invisible blade was sent flying and crashed onto the ground a few hundred meters away from Yun Lintian.

The commotion immediately brought everyone’s senses back. They turned to look at Yun Lintian and saw the exquisite sword float around him, acting like a protector.

“That sword…” Shan Jinhao frowned slightly. He seemed to see this sword somewhere before but couldn’t remember it clearly.

“The Heaven Piercing Sword!… How could it fall into his hand?” Shen Yifei exclaimed in shock. She had seen it with her own eyes when the previous Sword God visited the Mystic God Realm long ago.
