Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1897 A Glimmer of Hope

“Hmph! If my strength hadn’t reduced to this point, I would have slapped him long ago.” Ouyang Feng cursed under his breath as he sat across from Master Bai.

Master Bai silently ate the congee with a calm expression.

Ouyang Feng stuffed a mouthful of congee into his mouth and asked. “Can you tell me about him, Brother Bai? Why does he keep targeting you?”

“It’s nothing. We are enemies.” Master Bai replied. “You should stay away from him.”

“Oh.” Ouyang Feng responded. Since Master Bai didn’t want to tell him, he didn’t inquire further.

He sighed and said. “I hope that I can have the chance to be reincarnated. I need to avenge my brothers.”

When he was alive, Ouyang Feng was a formidable figure in a celestial realm that was akin to the Divine Realm. His absolute dominance aroused dissatisfaction among his enemies. Unable to confront him directly, the enemies resorted to kidnapping his close brothers. In the end, he was besieged and died while trying to avenge his fallen brothers.

Master Bai finished his congee and said. “Let’s go back.”

Ouyang Feng quickly stuffed the remaining congee into his mouth and followed Master Bai out of the canteen.

When the two left, Qian Guimo suddenly shouted. “Everyone, we need ten volunteers to deliver supplies to the palace. You can obtain five spiritual stones.”

“I will go!”

“Me too.”

“Count me in!”

Before Qian Guimo could finish his sentence, many people hastily stood up and vied for the spots.

Qian Guimo smiled and said. “Come. Let’s sign up first.”

Ouyang Feng and Master Bai were unaware they had missed a great opportunity. However, even though they wanted to go, Qian Guimo wouldn’t choose them anyway.

The two returned to their respective huts.

Master Bai laid on the earthen bed and turned to look at a small bird figurine next to the earthen pillow. It was the figurine of the Golden Crow that he made with his own hands.

He picked it up and looked at it with a touch of tenderness. “Huian… You should have reconstructed your body by now. I’m really happy for you… Unfortunately, I cannot see you again.”

Master Bai sighed sorrowfully as he caressed the figurine.

Just as he was about to set the figurine down and prepare to sleep, a flash of golden flame suddenly appeared on the figurine.

Master Bai was startled and jolted up from the bed. He gazed at the golden flame on the figurine and was convinced that it was the flame of the Golden Crow.

“What’s going on?” Master Bai couldn’t comprehend the situation. Clearly, it was a typical clay figurine. How could the Golden Crow’s flame manifest on it?

“Huian?” Master Bai frowned deeply. “No. It can’t be her.”

Although Jin Huian had a fiery temper, she did not act impulsively. It was impossible for her to come here.

A strange light flashed across Master Bai’s eyes as he thought of someone. “Yun Boy?”

Master Bai was unaware that when Yun Lintian used the Golden Crow’s flames on the Bridge of Oblivion, it caused the Golden Crow’s flame to appear on the figurine in his hand.

However, it was easy for him to make a guess. The only person who could come to the Netherworld and possess the Golden Crow God’s bloodline was Yun Lintian.

The golden flame gradually disappeared, leaving behind a lingering warmth.

Master Bai continued to stare at the figurine for a long while, and his originally dull eyes gradually regained their luster. A glimmer of hope appeared in his heart.

“You really…” Master Bai said emotionally. “You should take good care of yourself and avoid unnecessary risks.”

He took a deep breath and carefully placed the figurine beside his pillow.

Master Bai’s mind raced. He was thinking of what he could do in this situation. Yun Lintian would definitely come here sooner or later. He must be prepared.

***

A month passed by. Outside the Bridge of Oblivion, several figures began to emerge one after another. These individuals were the ghost kings who failed to conquer the Path of Heaven and Human.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Ying She appeared with an ashen expression. He angrily cursed. “Damn it. Who could pass it?”

He had endured the entire month inside the Path of Human but ultimately failed to deal with the laws. He had no choice but to leave. Otherwise, he would surely perish.

Ying She swept his gaze over the other ghost kings, and his expression became even gloomier.

He looked at Peng Zhen and asked. “Did Hua Rong come out?”

Although he said that Hua Rong must have left long ago, his intuition told him it wasn’t the case.

“Report to the Snake Ghost King. We didn’t see the Flower Ghost Queen. She should be inside.” Peng Zhen replied truthfully.

“Damn!” Ying She cursed again. He couldn’t accept this truth.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Suddenly, two more figures appeared. They were Hua Rong and Shi Gou.

When Ying She saw Hua Rong, a murderous intent immediately appeared in his eyes. However, he didn’t do anything.

“So, you didn’t leave early, Sister Hua.” Shi Gou looked at Hua Rong with surprise.

Hua Rong nodded gently. “Unfortunately, we have failed again.”

Shi Gou shrugged. “I’m already used to it. I don’t think anyone can pass it again.”

“Where did you hide?” Ying She stared at Hua Rong and asked coldly.

Hua Rong glanced at him and asked. “Do you want to fight here?”

“Hmph! Don’t think that I am afraid of you.” Ying She snorted coldly, and his aura surged.

“Stop it, Brother Ying.” Shi Gou quickly blocked him. “We shouldn’t fight among ourselves. Brother Xiao will be angry if he finds out.”

Ying She withdrew his aura and said. “I’ll let you go this time.”

As he finished his sentence, he turned around and left.

“Don’t mind him.” Shi Gou said gently as he looked at Hua Rong. “How was it this time?”

“I met the laws of fire and water.” Hua Rong replied. “Too bad I couldn’t comprehend them.”

“You are lucky. I encountered the law of explosion.” Shi Gou smiled bitterly.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Suddenly, three more figures appeared. They were Xiao Shou, Sheng Qianyu, and Gao Kang. Their appearances were miserable as if they had just gone through an intense battle.

Gao Kang’s entire body trembled in fury. He had come prepared this time but still failed. It was unacceptable!

The next moment, he caught a glimpse of Hua Rong, and his aura immediately exploded…𝓁𝒾𝘣𝑟𝑒𝘢𝘥.𝘤𝘰𝑚
