Myth Beyond Heaven

While the battle broke out, Jue Kong had silently arrived at the Tree of Life’s location. His arrival alerted all the guards here, and they quickly surrounded him.

Jue Kong didn’t seem to care about the guards. His eyes firmly fixated on Yun Lintian’s figure. He was surprised when he saw Yun Lintian absorbing the Tree of Life. With this, he didn’t have to struggle to regain freedom. As long as Yun Lintian finished absorbing everything, the suppression around his true body would disappear automatically.

Swoosh!

Iryena appeared before the Tree of Life and stared at Jue Kong coldly. “I’ve underestimated you.”

Jue Kong retracted his gaze from Yun Lintian and looked at Iryena. “Have you prepared yourself to become my puppet?”

Iryena responded. “Do you think you can get out of here?”

Jue Kong laughed slightly and pointed at Yun Lintian. “Look. I’m not a fool, alright? I don’t know why that bitch Tree of Life initially gives her power to that brat, but I have to thank them.”

As his voice fell, the ground shook slightly. Everyone on the scene could feel a movement coming from the area beneath the Tree of Life. Undoubtedly, it was coming from the Dragon of Death.

Jue Kong chuckled. “See? I can move a bit now.”

Iryena stared at him coldly. Before she could say anything, her expression changed slightly when she saw the surroundings turned into a world of fire.

Thankfully, the formation Yun Lintian set up around her residence was strong enough to withstand the domain. Her fellow Heavenly Wood Spirit clan members were completely safe and sound.

In the next moment, a heavy snowstorm suddenly appeared and negated the fire domain, followed by a loud explosion, and the snowstorm and fire domains had vanished altogether. 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍．𝙘𝒐𝙢

Jue Kong shook his head and said in disappointment. “I thought he could do something. In the end, he fled with his tail between his legs.” Undoubtedly, he was fully aware of Du Huanfeng’s departure.

He laughed slightly and said to himself. “But… Did he think he could escape from me? How na?ve.”

“Now!” Iryena suddenly shouted.

All the guards quickly launched their attacks on Jue Kong. However, their attacks were passed through his spiritual body, unable to hurt him.

Jue Kong laughed at the scene and was about to say something. His expression changed slightly.

Hong!

A vibrant sound echoed out of nowhere, and a golden light shot out of the ground beneath Jue Kong’s feet and formed a golden cage around him.

“Oh? A spiritual cage?” Jue Kong was surprised. This spiritual cage was an extremely ancient technique rumored to disappear for thousands of years. How could it appear here?

At this moment, Yun Ruanyu and Yun Qingrou appeared on the scene and slowly walked toward Jue Kong.

“Hmm?” Jue Kong looked at the two with great interest. Like the chubby girl he saw earlier, these two women gave off a similar aura. Without a doubt, they belonged in the same group… But where did they come from?

Yun Ruanyu stared at Jue Kong for a while and turned to Iryena. “We can start anytime.”

Iryena nodded gently. Before this, she was puzzled by the appearance of Yun Ruanyu and Yun Qingrou, but soon she immediately figured it out. They should come out of the Land of Beyond Heaven.

Iryena turned to Yavanna and said. “Start now.”

Yavanna nodded solemnly and told the guards to follow her to the Tree of Life. More precisely, they were heading toward where the Dragon of Death was locked up.

Jue Kong looked at the scene curiously. However, his expression changed drastically when he saw Yavanna take several golden beads out. He could clearly perceive terrifying lightning energy within it.

These golden beads were no other than the Thunder Beads that Yun Lintian left behind for Yun Lingwei to study.

Before Yun Ruanyu came out, she had discussed with Hongyue how to deal with the Dragon of Death. Hongyue gave a simple suggestion of using the Thunder Beads while Dragon of Death was still in a weak state. Although it might not kill him entirely, it could sever a large amount of his lifeforce.

Jue Kong was aware of this. His true body hadn’t yet fully recovered. It would take several years to recover if he was bombarded by these beads.

Thinking of this, he quickly released his mental power. However, he discovered his power was utterly suppressed by the golden cage around him.

“Stop!” Jue Kong roared angrily. This was the first time he showed other emotions besides being calm and composed.

Iryena held her hands together and closed her eyes. The ground slightly shook and opened.

“Now!” Yavanna injected her energy into the Thunder Beads and threw all of them into the hole before retreating.

The guards jointly conjured a sturdy barrier above the hole as Iryena quickly closed it.

“Roar!” The Dragon of Death roared madly, but he was helpless to do anything. He could only watch several golden beads falling down on his head.

Rumble—

The entire forest trembled violently as the Thunder Beads exploded. Countless trees were directly blown away, as well as the white fog around the forest.

When everything calmed down. Jue Kong’s black figure swayed slightly as if he could vanish at any moment.

“All of you will pay the price!” He glared coldly at Iryena and then made a hand seal. With an inflated sound, his body exploded and disappeared from the place.

Yun Ruanyu frowned slightly. Her intuition told her something was not right.

Before she could come up with an idea, the ground beneath the Tree of Life suddenly shook again. The hole that had just closed earlier gradually widened open, and a black mist immediately leaked out.

Iryena’s expression changed drastically. She couldn’t be more familiar with this aura. The Dragon of Death was about to come out!

“All of you, prepare to attack!” Iryena shouted and clasped her hands together. Several vines shot out of the ground and formed a thick net on top of the hole.

“ROARRRRR!!”

Heaven-shaking cries of alarm rang out from the gap between the vine net, causing everyone’s soul to involuntarily tremble.
