Myth Beyond Heaven

"The aura has become stronger once again." Outside Devil Valley, a beautiful woman with fox ears spoke as she gazed at the distant black barrier. She was a member of the Heavenly Fox God Clan stationed here.

During this period, she could clearly feel that the dark aura in the air was constantly growing stronger. The surrounding area had already transformed into a dark world. If it weren't for the protective artifact within her body, she would have likely lost her mind a long time ago.

Crack!

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the barrier, causing the woman to frown deeply. She had witnessed such a scene numerous times, and each time it happened, the barrier would eventually repair itself.

Crack! Crack!

Another few cracks emerged, and an intense dark aura quickly flew out, causing the already black world to become even darker.

The woman furrowed her brow as she had a foreboding feeling in her heart. Compared to the past, the cracks this time seemed to last longer. Driving by the uneasy feeling, she quickly retreated further while staring at the barrier without blinking.

Crack!

The cracks gradually expanded, spreading farther and farther. One meter... ten meters... a hundred meters—the cracks became increasingly wider, on the verge of destruction.

The woman's expression changed dramatically. She immediately contacted Bi Zhelan. "Master, the barrier is about to shatter soon!"

A second later, Bi Zhelan's voice resounded from the other side. "Leave immediately!"

Without hesitation, the woman turned around and ran with all her strength. She didn't forget to send a message to various god realms, warming them to be ready.

Crack! Crack!! CRAAACK!!

As soon as the woman left, the barrier wholly crumbled, unleashing an extremely ominous aura.

At the same time, numerous colossal silhouettes could be seen soaring out from the depths of the Devil Valley. Their terrifying auras caused the surrounding space to distort wildly before transforming into a violent spatial storm.

The stars seemed to stop spinning and moving. All sounds and elements in the world had gone completely quiet...

On top of the silhouettes, a colossal figure resembling a massive bird opened its wings and mouth, emitting a thunderous roar.

ROAR—

Instantly, the numerous figures around it charged forward, rushing in all directions...

A month passed by very quickly. On the outside of the temple, Zhan Huan calmly sipped his tea while observing Ling Zemin, whose appearance was indescribably miserable.

"Why are you so stubborn, Brother Ling? Just accept your fate and enjoy the last moments of your life." Zhan Huan said with a faint smile.

Ling Zemin glared at Zhan Huan with his bloodshot eyes. His face was filled with anger as if he couldn't wait to devour the man in front of him. "Don't give me a chance... I will definitely..."

"How noisy." Yue Chuntao expressed her dissatisfaction and knocked Ling Zemin unconscious. "I really don't know why Senior Bai wants to keep him alive."

"Well, technically, he does indeed have some values." Zhan Huan said. "Although the Everlasting Soul God Emperor often appears indifferent towards his son, he undoubtedly cares about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent Ling Chao to protect him."

Yue Chuntao glanced at him briefly and said. "What about you? What kind of value do you have?"

"Me?" Zhan Huan chuckled. "I hold no value in Senior Bai's eyes. My father doesn't love me. Perhaps I'm even more worthless than the decorative stone he damaged."

Yue Chuntao scoffed and paid no further attention to him. She gazed at the temple in the distance, her curiosity piqued. She wanted to know what was happening there.

During this month, Yun Lintian had been stuck at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm and couldn't take a further step. However, his momentum continued to rise. It was as if he was waiting for something to take effect.

"What happened? He couldn't be experiencing a bottleneck, right?" Master Bai looked at Yun Lintian with a puzzled expression.

"No," Jin Huian frowned. "Although it's slow, his profound vein is still expanding."

"We cannot use our common sense to judge him." Nantian Fengyu spoke gently. "I have witnessed his breakthrough a few times in the past. And every time, he would cause a heavenly phenomenon that Yun Tian couldn't even do. I believe something similar will happen soon."

Bang!

All of a sudden, Yun Lintian's aura exploded, causing the entire temple to tremble. However, what followed was a complete stillness. There was no movement or sound. It was as if the whole world was frozen in time.

The strange phenomenon lasted a full minute, and then time started flowing again.

At this moment, Yun Lintian's divine energy flowed out endlessly. However, the divine energy released from his body did not simply dissipate. Instead, it coiled and swirled in the air around him as if it were being restrained by something and formed into invisible energy clouds.

In a short amount of time, all of his divine energy had been depleted, leaving his profound vein empty and hollow. Nevertheless, Yun Lintian didn't feel any exhaustion. On the contrary, it actually made him more refreshing.

The Divine King Realm was a realm that many profound practitioners never even dreamed of entering in their entire lives. 

There were also numerous profound practitioners who possessed an enviable innate talent that was unmatched by anyone else. Within a mere century or even a few decades, they had already reached the Divine Transformation Realm. Yet, they found themselves stuck at the bottleneck of becoming a Divine King and ended up unable to break through it despite trying for their entire lives.

If the Divine Transformation Realm was meant to transform his mortal body into a divine body, stepping into the Divine King Realm was equivalent to completely changing everything in his body to a higher divine existence—qualifying to become a king of his own realm.

BOOM—

The world within Yun Lintian's profound vein emitted an explosive sound that lasted for a very long time. It was as if all the mountains in the world were collapsing... As if countless storms were wreaking havoc everywhere.

At the same time, the entire Neverending Burning Hell experienced a strange phenomenon. The volcanoes and seas of flames were boiling and erupting, causing chaos and upheaval everywhere.

"Here it comes." Linlin's eyes glowed with excitement. She felt happy for her Big Brother Yun…
