Myth Beyond Heaven

The tremendous pressure released by Hongyue immediately swallowed all the scarlet curtains. Scarlet Soul Emperor was shocked as he stammered. “You… How could you? Do you want to perish with me?”

In his opinion, Hongyue released this move was akin to committing suicide. After all, she was a mere residual soul right now. It was impossible for her to bear the enormous energy expense.

Hongyue curled her lips, looking at Scarlet Soul Emperor with contempt. “You are thinking of yourself too highly. Do I need to perish together with you?”

Scarlet Soul Emperor was about to retort, but he suddenly discovered Hongyue’s illusory figure was highly stable as if she didn’t spend any single bit of energy by releasing this move.

Instantly, Scarlet Soul Emperor seemed to realize something and hurriedly turned to look at Yun Lintian before returning to Hongyue with his eyes widened open. “Did he…?”

“Surprised?” Hongyue laughed gently. “I was surprised as well when he gave me a portion of The Moon’s power.”

Scarlet Soul Emperor immediately lost his mind as he scolded. “Idiot! Did he know the consequence of doing this?”

Hongyue glanced at the unconscious Yun Lintian briefly and said. “Of course. He knows.”

Scarlet Soul Emperor went silent. He didn’t know what to say or do at the moment.

Hongyue retracted her gaze and said. “It’s time for you to go on the road… Really. It’s your misfortune to meet him here.”

No matter how unwilling Scarlet Soul Emperor was, he knew it was useless to do anything now. He didn’t even have a bit of soul energy left. Even if Hongyue let him go, he would disappear in a while.

The sudden sorrow hit Scarlet Soul Emperor. All the memories from his birth and all the glory days he went through flashed past his mind like a movie. The more he saw it, the more unwilling to leave this world he was.

His expression abruptly turned hideous as his soul swelled as if he was about to explode. “I’ll drag all of you to hell with me!”

“Na?ve,” Hongyue had expected this already. She gently moved her hand, and a red moon immediately surrounded Scarlet Soul Emperor, successfully preventing him from detonating himself.

“Goodbye.” Hongyue smiled coldly and made a crushing gesture.

“No!” Scarlet Soul Emperor shouted in horror before the red moon suddenly shrank and exploded.

Bang!

The explosion wasn’t intense. It merely shaved off the ground surface and blew a cloud of dust everywhere. When the dust settled, Scarlet Soul Emperor was no longer there. The generation Divine Emperor, one of the most powerful emperors in the Divine World, had fallen just like that.

Hongyue stared at the place where Scarlet Soul Emperor disappeared for a while before sweeping the area with her Divine Sense. In the next moment, her gaze paused on the small altar at the center of the room, and she moved her hand gently.

With a bang, the altar was blasted away, revealing a hidden passage beneath it.

Hongyue turned to Yun Ruanyu and said. “Let’s go down. There’s a good thing down there.”

Yun Ruanyu and others quickly followed Hongyue behind.

Under Hongyue’s lead, everyone had arrived at a spacious space with a gloomy aura lingering in the air. In front of them was a huge pond, approximately two hundred square meters. The liquid within the pond had a translucent gray color, releasing cold energy that made everyone involuntarily shiver.

“This…” Yun Qingrou seemed to recognize the identity of this pond, but she wasn’t sure about it.

“I didn’t expect there would be a soul pond of this size hiding here. I thought it would be two or three square meters pond at most.” Hongyue was surprised upon seeing this pond. It was no wonder Scarlet Soul Emperor could last until now.

“It’s really a soul pond!” Yun Qingrou was startled for a moment and became excited. The Soul Pond not only helps nourish one’s soul but it can also be used as an ingredient to make a soul-related pill. In short, owning a soul pond would bring endless benefits to everyone.

“But how do we take them away?” Yun Lingwei suddenly asked.

Hongyue replied. “Simple. Arrange a transport formation and wake him up.”

Yun Lingwei thought for a moment and immediately took action. Meanwhile, Yun Qingrou tried to treat Yun Lintian and waited for him to wake up.

Yun Ruanyu looked at Hongyue and asked. “Princess Hongyue, who is that person earlier? And why did he appear here?”

Hongyue went silent for a moment before saying. “Never mind. All of you will eventually know it one day. Remember, do not let Lintian know what I will say next.”

Everyone turned to Hongyue and waited for the explanation.

“All of you should be aware that Lintian has a special identity. That’s the successor of the Beyond Heaven King. I won’t speak about his origin because it’s not the time for you to know it. Trust me, it will harm all of you.” Hongyue explained.

“Beyond Heaven King was the most powerful person in the Divine World. Because of this, he naturally attracted jealousy from all directions. Countless enemies were trying to bring him down, and Scarlet Soul Emperor you saw earlier was one of them.”

“In the past, the Divine World had thirty-two emperor realms, and Scarlet Soul Emperor was the divine emperor of the Emperor Realm called Scarlet Divine Emperor Realm. As you can see, he could be the divine emperor means his talent is above trillions of practitioners. He was regarded as the top ten strongest Divine Emperor during his prime. What you see earlier was only one-tenth of his true power.”

“He was the same as other greedy bastards. He followed Beyond Heaven King’s trail and tried to kill him countless times, but none of them had ever succeeded. Later, when Beyond Heaven King had fallen, he crazily chased after his legacy to this Azure World.” 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗼𝗿𝐠

After listening to Hongyue, Yun Ruanyu and others had a lot of new questions in their minds. At the same time, they were curious about who was the person that could trap such a powerful figure like Scarlet Soul Emperor in this place.
