Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 267 - Terrifying Discovery



Yun Lintian hurriedly retracted the spear back and used his other hand to touch the position that was supposed to have the invisible barrier. However, there was actually nothing in that place. 

Seeing this, Yun Lintian brought the crow demon's corpse to the front again and saw it obviously disappear like it was before. This gave Yun Lintian a general understanding. To enter the place, one must have Abyssal Energy on their body.

Yun Lintian pulled the crow demon's corpse back and took its abyssal profound beast core out. He tossed the corpse away and held the core in his hand before trying to walk into the invisible barrier. 

The moment he stepped forward, Yun Lintian could clearly feel a soft wall in front of him. This proved his idea was correct. Using Abyssal Profound Beast Core resulted in the same as possessing Abyssal Energy.

Yun Lintian didn't hesitate anymore and passed through the invisible wall directly. A moment later, he immediately found himself in a gloomy space without any source of light. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything. 

When he opened Eyes of Heaven, the first thing that came to his sight was a dense Abyssal Energy floating everywhere in this space. Moreover, many profound beasts could be seen sleeping on the floor. Judging by the dense Abyssal Energy in their bodies, none of them were lower than Heaven Profound Realm!

Witnessing this, Yun Lintian didn't dare to breathe. Though he could handle Heaven Profound Beast, he couldn't deal with all of them at once. 

Suddenly, Yun Lintian felt his skin start to erode. Abyssal Energy slowly seeped into his body, aiming to devour all of the profound energy he had.

Without hesitation, Yun Lintian quickly retreated to the outside. Afterward, he poured a portion of Profound Spirit Liquid on his body to wash the trace of Abyssal Energy away. 

The whole process had been witnessed by Qin Yiran, but Yun Lintian didn't care much whether she would tell others. He turned to her and said. "This is the entrance to the center area. You have to hold the Abyssal Profound Beast Core to enter it. However, I suggest that you should stay away from this place. There are countless Heaven Profound Beasts in there, and the entire space is filled with Abyssal Poison."

Qin Yiran stared at Yun Lintian for a while and slowly nodded her head. Since Yun Lintian had displayed his power earlier, she was well aware he was far stronger than her. Even someone like him had to retreat. What is the use of her entering that place?

"We should report this." Qin Yiran expressed her thoughts.

Yun Lintian didn't agree or deny. Instead, he asked. "You think the academy doesn't know about this?"

Qin Yiran went silent instantly. That was right. The academy should know about this a long time ago.

Yun Lintian walked around to check whether there were other entrances nearby. After confirming there were no other entrances, Yun Lintian was a bit relieved. With this, he might be able to do something.

He turned to Qin Yiran and said. "You should contact our friends first and tell them about this. It's better to stay around the perimeter area."

Qin Yiran didn't say a word and directly contacted Qin Yuyan and others.

Yun Lintian took out a set of a table and chairs along with several formation stones. His plan was simple — he was going to lay a high-level killing formation here and lure those profound beasts out. Although they might not fall into the trap easily, it was better than nothing.

In the dark space filled with Abyssal Energy. A group of humans gathered together, discussing something. The one who stood at the center was a white hair old-man clad in a grey robe. His eyes were closed, seemingly unbothered to the surroundings.

Four other people were standing around the old man. One of them was the one who had secretly followed Yun Lintian back then, Abyssal Devourer.

Abyssal Devourer had an average-looking appearance. Except for his waist-long black hair, other features were nothing out of the ordinary. If he stood among the crowd, no one would remember him.

At this moment, he looked at a woman in a red dress opposite him. "Crimson Reaper, you wouldn't believe me. I found an interesting prey among this year's offerings."

The red-dressed woman, Crimson Reaper, curled her lips as she asked in an interested manner. "Really? Why don't you tell me more?"

Before Abyssal Devourer could say anything, a three-meter-high man on the side snorted coldly. "Hmph! What's there to be excited about? They would become the offerings in the end."

The giant man had a long, sharp horn growing out from his forehead. His face was full of muscles, giving off a brutal aura. His name was Mountain Destroyer.

Abyssal Devourer ignored the giant man, he explained. "This man has an amazing movement technique. He can blend with the shadows and move back and forth between them. I don't think your technique can be compared with him."

Crimson Reaper's brows raised in surprise. She pretty much believed in Abyssal Devourer's words because he had never lied to her before. Hearing he talked about Yun Lintian like this, she was immediately interested in him.

Crimson Reaper was well known for her deadly movement technique. She could reap the target's life silently because of this. She truly wanted to see Yun Lintian's movement technique, which even Abyssal Devourer admired.

"Where is he now?" Crimson Reaper asked. She couldn't wait to go out right away.

"He…" Abyssal Devourer was about to answer. He was interrupted by a thin man, who was silent for all this time.

"Have you forgotten our purpose in coming here?" The thin man said. Unlike Abyssal Devourer, this thin man had a handsome face that could steal any girl's soul. However, there was an inexplicably sinister aura buried underneath that handsome face. His name was Soul Eater, who loved to eat human souls.

"Big Brother Soul is right. I shouldn't have brought this topic up." Abyssal Devourer patted his forehead and said apologetically.. From his stance, Soul Eater seemed to hold a higher status here.
