Myth Beyond Heaven

1702  Underneath The Ocean (1)

"Roar!" The python screamed in agony as the swords pierced its skull even deeper. It unleashed everything it had, causing the ocean to churn upside down.

A massive tidal wave surged into the air and crashed down upon Yun Lintian's group.

Yun Lintian raised his hand slightly, and a violent storm immediately burst out, sweeping the tidal wave away.

At the same time, he exerted even more power on the two swords embedded in the python's head, causing it to explode instantly.

"What are you doing, brat? Why did you destroy its head? Do you know how delicious it is?" Master Bai shouted angrily. "Hurry up and pull over."

Yun Lintian rolled his eyes and skillfully maneuvered his swords to pull up the python from the depths of the ocean.

Master Bai looked at the headless python with a heartache. Such a delicacy was completely ruined. If he knew this, he would take action himself.

Meanwhile, Li Gen and Chen Lin looked at the scene, dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that one of the strongest sea monsters had been killed so easily.

Hei Jin and his crew were no different. Their eyes widened in shock, and they stood there in a daze.

Hei Jin regained his composure and shouted. "Quick! Turn around!"

Su Heng and the others woke up from their trance and quickly turned the ship around, fleeing for their lives.

Naturally, they wouldn't give up easily. They must wait until the people from the Dark Sea Palace arrive first.

Yun Lintian looked in Hei Jin's direction and said. "They are running fast enough, huh?"

Li Gen and Chen Lin heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Although they knew Yun Lintian was strong, it was better to see Hei Jin retreat.

"But they won't give up easily. I guess they will contact those people again." Li Gen said with a frown.

"Who?" Yun Lintian asked curiously.

"The Dark Sea Palace." Li Gen replied. "Many people here have joined the Dark Sea Palace to earn a living and become their observers. Whenever an outsider like you comes here, they will report directly to the Dark Sea Palace."

Yun Lintian was slightly surprised and gave Li Gen a deep look. "Considering your previous condition, I'm quite surprised that you didn't choose to join them."

"Even if I join them, they won't help my wife. On the contrary, they will use her to control me." Li Gen said while looking at his wife with tenderness. "I don't want her to be in their hands."

Chen Lin gently squeezed her husband's hand, expressing her affection. The two of them were fortunate enough to be born with talents, and as a result, their lives were fulfilling. Everything was good until Chen Lin got poisoned during her previous ocean trip.

There were several instances when Li Gen desired to join the Dark Sea Palace in order to rescue his wife. However, he was well aware that it was impossible for them to help him. Hence, he could only grit his teeth and wait for a good opportunity. Fortunately, Yun Lintian appeared.

"No wonder Hei Jin was able to reach the peak of the Divine Sovereign Realm in this kind of environment." Yun Lintian said.

Li Gen and Chen Lin were also highly talented. Both of them were early-level Divine Kings. Yun Lintian didn't know how they had reached this point without bowing their heads to the Dark Sea Palace.

As if she could see through Yun Lintian's thoughts, Chen Lin took the initiative to explain. "Although the environment here is not good, it is completely different beneath the ocean. Normally, we would come here once a month to practice. Coupled with the resources we acquired from our customers, it took us more than twenty thousand years to reach this point."

Linlin looked at her suspiciously and asked. "Why don't they kill you?"

Chen Lin responded. "We have our trump card. Although we can't defeat Hei Jin, it shouldn't be a problem to leave him half-dead. Moreover, outsiders cannot kill us. Otherwise, the curse will transfer to them."

"Oh?" Yun Lintian was surprised. "This place is really strange. Do you know the origin of this place?"

Li Gen shook his head and said. "We have no idea either. Some say it has been like this since the Primordial Era. Others said it was changed a million years ago."

"This place is as old as the Devil Valley." Master Bai took his eyes off the python and said. "I have come here a few times in the past to find some fish to eat, but later, I discovered the ancient aura in the Black Immortal Palace. This aura is similar to the one in the Devil Valley. You will understand later."

Yun Lintian didn't pursue this matter any further and changed the topic. "Why did this python come to the surface?"

"Who knows?" Master Bai spread his wings. "Maybe it knows I am coming and wants to offer itself to be in my stomach."

As he spoke, he sprinkled a variety of seasonings on the python and then ignited some flames to grill it. Soon, the air was filled with a delicious aroma.

"This one smells good." Qingqing's eyes lit up as she gazed at the grilled python.

"This is mine." Master Bai glared at her, which caused her to pout angrily.

Yun Lintian was speechless. "You shouldn't give her some. What kind of senior are you to fight a girl for food?"

Master Bai sneered. "What senior? I'm two years old this year."

"Big Brother Yun." Qingqing looked at Yun Lintian pleadingly.

Yun Lintian couldn't resist her cuteness. He raised his hand and cut a chunk of the python's meat with lightning speed.

"How dare you, brat!?" Master Bai was so angry that he wanted to snatch it back.

Yun Lintian waved his hand to block him and said. "I will tell Senior Jin later and see how she handles this situation... Also, remove the Divine Emperor Core and give it to Linlin."

"F*ck!" Master Bai immediately surrendered to Yun Lintian's move and reluctantly cut out the python's divine core.

Qingqing nibbled on the grilled meat happily and didn't forget to make a face at Master Bai. "Coward."

"For the sake of being a senior, I'll let you go this time." Master Bai glared at her angrily and threw the divine core to Linlin.

"Didn't you just say you were two years old this year?" Yun Lintian teased.

"Hmph!" Master Bai snorted and opened his mouth, devouring the grilled python in one bite.

Li Gen and Chen Lin glanced at each other in silence. Why did it suddenly turn into a picnic outing?

Yun Lintian looked at them and said. "Let's go. I will use my power to propel the boat. Just tell me the direction."
