Myth Beyond Heaven

Even though the strength of Fan's father had regressed a lot, Yun Lintian could still perceive a trace of a tyrannical power hiding deep inside of his body. Undoubtedly, Fan's father was once an expert who stood at the pinnacle among the powerhouses in this world.

"I'll remember this kindness." Fan's father took a deep look at Yun Lintian. "My name is Guchang. Welcome to our humble village."

Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said politely. "Greetings, Senior Guchang. My name is Mu Chen… However, before we talk about this, we need to deal with the incoming trouble first."

Guchang frowned slightly and turned to his son. "What's going on?"

Fan lowered his head in guilt and did not dare to say.

Yun Lintian took this chance to explain. "It's like this, Senior. Brother Fan was robbed by a person named Hongniu Kangyi, and he accidentally killed him. Now, four people are coming in this way. If I'm not mistaken, they should be Hongniu Kangyi's comrades."

A trace of surprise flashed through Guchang's eyes as he glanced at Fan. He took a deep breath and said. "No need to feel guilty. You didn't do anything wrong."

Fan raised his head and said with a worried expression. "But I have caused trouble for everyone…."

Guchang waved his hand weakly. "It's fine. With me here, they don't dare to do anything excessively. You go clean up first."

Fan hesitated briefly and obediently walked into the bathroom.

Guchang snapped his finger gently, and an isolating barrier immediately covered the room. He looked at Yun Lintian coldly. "What do you want by approaching him?" As he spoke, powerful pressure gradually filled the entire room.

Under pressure, Yun Lintian didn't have the slightest change in his expression. He smiled faintly and responded. "This junior has no ill intention. As I said before, I was merely passing by and happened to encounter Brother Fan… I won't hide anything from Senior Guchang. I just arrived in the Western Continent a while ago, and I thought I could find some information by following Brother Fan."

Guchang stared straight into Yun Lintian's eyes for a long time before retracting the pressure, as he couldn't find any flaw in Yun Lintian's statement. He asked sternly. "Why did you come here? Could it be you're here for the Tree of Life?"

Yun Lintian showed a surprised expression. It seemed the majority of humans that came to this continent were after the Tree of Life.

Guchang saw Yun Lintian's surprised expression. He couldn't help but let out a chuckle. "Throughout the years, one after another has come to find the Tree of Life, but none of them could succeed. They ended up losing their lives instead… I advise you to go back now. Don't be delusional like them."

Yun Lintian smiled faintly and replied. "Thank you for your concern, Senior. Since I dare to come here, I certainly have my own judgment."

Guchang looked at Yun Lintian for a while and waved his hand. "Forget it. You can do whatever you want. I've already given you a warning."

Yun Lintian changed the topic. "Senior, this junior knows a little of medical profound art. If I'm not mistaken, Senior should be inflicted by poison that directly attacks the soul."

The expression on Guchang's face changed slightly. "You can see it?" He couldn't help reevaluating this young man. From the first time he noticed Yun Lintian, his intuition told him this Heaven Profound Realm junior wasn't ordinary. He seemed to shroud in a mysterious aura that made him unable to see through.

Yun Lintian shook his head. "It's just my guess. If Senior doesn't mind, I can perform an in-depth examination."

Guchang went silent. It wasn't because he was being cautious toward a stranger, but rather he was aware of his condition. It was almost impossible to cure it.

"Father, please let Senior Mu check it." At this moment, Fan walked into the room. He accidentally heard Yun Lintian's words and had an inexplicable feeling that Yun Lintian might be able to treat his father.

Seeing his son's concerned expression, Guchang sighed softly and said to Yun Lintian. "You can try."

Yun Lintian took a step forward and grabbed Guchang's wrist. His pupils shone with golden light as he used his Spiritual Sense to check on Guchang's body. Instantly, Guchang's internal organs came into his vision, and Yun Lintian discovered everything inside was rapidly eroding by a strange black substance.

After seeing this, Yun Lintian closed his eyes and searched the relevant information in his head. Several poisons could produce this effect, but most could not harm the monarch's body.

Soon, Yun Lintian came with two names. The first one was the Deep Sea Poison that Hong Wuya had experienced, and the second one was a hideous poison called Life Eroding Poison. Certainly, the poison in Guchang's body wasn't the Deep Sea Poison.

Yun Lintian opened his eyes and asked. "Senior, how did you get this Life Eroding Poison?"

Guchang was genuinely surprised this time. "You know it?" Seeing Yun Lintian nodding, he said further. "Long story short. I got it while trying to protect my wife."

Hearing his father mentioning this, Fan lowered his head in sadness.

Yun Lintian retracted his hand and thought for a moment before saying. "I have a way to get rid of it, but the poison has clearly spread to every corner of Senior's body. It will take at least a month to expel all of it."

Guchang and Fan looked at Yun Lintian in astonishment. They couldn't believe what they had just heard. However, seeing Yun Lintian's serious expression, they knew he wasn't joking.

"Senior Mu, can you really get rid of this poison?" Fan reacted quickly as he looked at Yun Lintian with hope.

Yun Lintian nodded. "I have no reason to lie to both of you. Although Life Eroding Poison is powerful, it's nothing if you understand its nature. The only difficult thing is it requires a lot of precious herbs."

Fan became excited and hurriedly asked. "What herbs? Can you tell me, Senior Mu? I will find it right away."
