Myth Beyond Heaven

A chill ran down Yun Lintian's spine. He had encountered countless life and death situations before, but none of them could give him this overwhelmingly dreadful feeling.

Suddenly, a wisp of gentle currently flushed into Yun Lintian's body, making him calm down and return to his sense.

"Heh, this boy is interesting." A hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the dark hole as the red pupil enlarged slightly.

"You better be honest." Iryena signaled with her hand, and several wooden arrows immediately went straight into the red pupil.

Puff!

A black liquid gushed out from the red pupil, but the owner didn't seem to feel any pain as it was laughing. "Kekeke… Wait until I get out of this place. I will turn all of you into my dead puppets."

His voice was incomparably cold. Even though his aura could not break the seal, everyone on the scene involuntarily trembled just by hearing this.

"Hongyue." Yun Lintian called in his mind.

"This guy is undoubtedly standing at the ceiling of this world's profound strength. Fortunately, he chose to come here instead of going to other places. Otherwise, this world would cover in darkness by now." Hongyue said calmly.

"The ceiling of this world? How am I going to deal with him, then?" Yun Lintian smiled wryly. He felt powerless all over. His progress speed could be considered a miracle already, yet his profound strength could not catch up with the opponents he faced.

"His aura is filling with death power. I didn't expect there would be someone who caught a glimpse of the Laws of Death here. As long as he could ascend to the Divine World, he would certainly become a fearsome figure." Hongyue said further.

"Can you stop praising him and give me an idea?" Yun Lintian was speechless. There was no need to explain it to him, right?

,m Hongyue rolled her eyes. "What I am saying is the solution."

"What do you mean?" Yun Lintian asked confusedly.

"Since he possesses the Laws of Death, we can simply use the Laws of Life to kill him." Hongyue curled her lips.

"Laws of Life?" Yun Lintian looked at the Tree of Life and said. "You mean I can use the Tree of Life to kill him?"

"You're not entirely stupid." Hongyue laughed slightly. "Go integrate with the Tree of Life, and you will have a chance to finish him… However, I must give you a warning first. The Tree of Life is entirely different from other Beyond Heaven Relics you've encountered. Because its spirit still exists, you will need a long time to absorb it. It may take a month or a whole year. So, you better prepare yourself first."

"That long?" Yun Lintian was stunned. As someone from Earth and barely reaching fifty years of living in two lifetimes combined, a year was too long for him.

"There's no other way?" Yun Lintian tried his luck.

"No. Whether it is The Sun, The Moon, or the Thunder, all of them are in a 'dead' state without their own will. That's why you can easily absorb them, just like moving into a vacant house. However, the Tree of Life is like a house with a housekeeper. Not only do you need to take care of the house, but you also need to take care of the housekeeper." Hongyue explained.

"But Lauya should fully allow me to enter the house, right?" Yun Lintian asked in doubt.

"She has indeed regarded you as her new master now, but don't you have to get to know her first? Are you going to treat her like a randomly hired housekeeper that you can fire at any time?" Hongyue pursed her lips.

"I seem to understand now." Yun Lintian immediately understood what Hongyue tried to convey. Basically, he needed to get along with Lauya well in order to occupy the house—the Tree of Life. This kind of process was undoubtedly taking time.

In order not to waste his time further, Yun Lintian glanced at the red pupil and said to Iryena. "Close it."

Iryena immediately brought her hands together, praying again, and the ground around the dark hole gradually drew closer to each other.

The red pupil fixated its gaze on Yun Lintian as a cold voice resounded. "Three contradictory elements coexist peacefully in one body. Kekeke,… Look like you have a lot of secrets on you. Boy, we shall meet again soon."

"No, thanks." Yun Lintian replied casually as the dark hole fully closed.

"What's your next plan, Sect Master?" Iryena quickly integrated into her new role. She didn't have a slight dissatisfaction with calling Yun Lintian this. On the contrary, she was relieved and full of gratitude toward him. At least her Heavenly Wood Spirit Clan would regain a peaceful life soon.

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "First of all, you have to take care of Du Huanfeng's group. Do not let him approach this place or leave this forest. Can you do it?"

"No problem," Iryena responded with a confident smile.

"No need to kill him. He has a high status in the outside world. Killing him here will cause trouble for my friends on this continent. We better capture him alive." Yun Lintian said further.

Iryena nodded her head gently. "I understand."

"Secondly, I will have to trouble you to take care of my friends. Find a place for them to practice during this time." Yun Lintian said. "Lastly, I am going to integrate with the Tree of Life. It may take a long time. During this time, tell everyone to stay in the village. I will personally arrange a formation around here, just in case."

"Please leave everything to me." Iryena accepted the instruction readily.

Yun Lintian nodded. He took countless best-grade Profound Stones, buckets of Profound Spirit Liquid, and various pills out and placed them on the ground nearby. "Share these things among yourself. During this period, everyone should try their best to increase their strength."

Surprisingly, except for Nienna, Iryena and the guards didn't seem surprised when Yun Lintian took these heavenly treasures out. It was as though they were used to such a scene.

"Thank you, Sect Master." Iryena smiled and beckoned the guard leader to take the items away.
