Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 389 - Accidentally Triggered A Breakthrough



Chi Xiong felt as though his soul was being sucked away, facing the tyrannical dragon's cry. His body went stiff, and the broadsword was paused in midair, unable to reach the target.

Bang!

The virtual fire dragon coiled around Yun Lintian's arm and went straight at Chi Xiong's chest, immediately sending him out of the platform. With a thud, Chi Xiong's giant figure landed heavily on the ground, creating a huge pit beneath him.

Once again, Yun Lintian's prowess shocked everyone in the scene. When they recovered their sense, they inadvertently looked at Chi Xiong, who struggled to get up with difficulty. If they faced Chi Xiong, they would definitely end up suffering, but Yun Lintian could send him away just one move. This strength was too unbelievable. They even started to doubt whether Yun Lintian was truly in the Origin Profound Realm.

"Ugh!" Chi Xiong spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt as though his entire body had broken apart. 

Yun Lintian glanced at the academy elder nearby and asked. "Senior, is this count as I won the match?"

The academy elder subconsciously nodded his head. "Since Chi Xiong has left the platform, it means he lost the match."

Yun Lintian cupped his fists. "Thank you, Senior." 

Following that, he jumped off the platform and landed beside Yang Chen. He picked Linlin up from Fei Mao's head and squinted his eyes at the dazed Yang Chen. "Unwilling?"

Yang Chen shook his head with a wry smile. "It's not like that, Brother Yun. I just realized the gap between us is too huge."

Yun Lintian chuckled. "Of course, I'm more handsome than you, after all."

The corner of Yang Chen's mouth twitched slightly… I'm not talking about appearance, alright?

Yun Lintian didn't want to say here anymore. He motioned with his chin while saying. "Let's go."

"Wait!" As Yun Lintian and others were about to leave, Chi Xiong suddenly shouted and dragged his body toward them.

Yun Lintian turned to look at him and asked with a frown. "Wants more?"

Chi Xiong used his broadsword to stabilize himself and shook his head. "No. I'm not your opponent."

"What is it then?" Yun Lintian asked impatiently.

Chi Xiong took a deep breath and said with a serious expression. "You are strong. Much stronger than Wang Jue. Can I look for you for a spar in the future?"

Yun Lintian waved his hand boringly. "Go away. I'm not free. If you want to fight, then let's wait until this guy fully recovered first." He then pointed at Yang Chen.

Chi Xiong was disappointed, but he understood Yun Lintian didn't want to waste time with someone weaker like him. He nodded his head and turned to Yang Chen. "I'll wait for your word." Afterward, he slowly walked out of the arena area while dragging his broadsword.

Yang Chen stared at Chi Xiong's back solemnly without saying anything until the latter disappeared from his sight.

Yun Lintian patted his shoulder and said. "Recover well. You can fight him as much as you want by then." 

Yang Chen nodded. "Understood, Brother Yun."

"However, I have to remind you something." Yun Lintian suddenly said. "I'm not trying to criticize or order you around, but you have to use your brain more next time. Remember, your life doesn't actually belong to you alone. You still have your sister, parents, and little girlfriend behind you. Have you ever thought about what would happen to them if something happened to you?"

Yang Chen visibly trembled. He seemed to see the picture of Yang Mengli, Hua Wanru, and his parents crying in front of his grave in his mind. He always thought it didn't matter if he died, they would definitely live well, but in fact, it might be totally opposite. 

It was at this time Yang Chen realized how stupid his action was in the past. He always acted according to his emotion. With just a little provocation, he would immediately become angry and respond impulsively.

Seeing Yang Chen seemed to realize something, Yun Lintian added. "As for your sword's path, I believe you aren't suitable for the invincible path so you don't have to try your best to face every enemy you see… I'm not a sword practitioner, so I don't know much about this. However, why don't you ask yourself more? Why do you want to become stronger? For yourself or for who?"

It was as though there was a bang in Yang Chen's mind and a new path appeared before him… That was right. What am I practicing for? Who do I want to become stronger for?

The doubt in Yang Chen's eyes gradually became clearer and clearer. He had finally found his true sword's path… He wanted to protect his beloved ones!

Buzz—

All of a sudden, massive profound energy swiftly gathered around Yang Chen's body, forming into a small cyclone. At the same time, Yang Chen's strength gradually rose from the early level to the middle level and arrived at the ninth level of Origin Profound Realm in one go.

This commotion immediately attracted everyone in the scene. They looked at Yang Chen's power continued to rise in a dumbfounded manner… What's going on? Why did he suddenly make a breakthrough?

The academy elders glanced at each other before taking a deep look at Yun Lintian and Yang Chen. They could obviously hear the discussion between the two and understand the reason behind Yang Chen's sudden breakthrough.

A long while later, Yang Chen opened his eyes and clenched his fists, trying to adjust to his newly gained power. Afterward, he bowed deeply to Yun Lintian and said. "Thank you, Brother Yun. I understand everything now."

"I didn't do anything. You don't have to thank me." Yun Lintian said plainly, appearing like an aloof expert. No one knew behind his calm appearance, a stormy turmoil was set in his heart… What the hell!? Did he break through just like that? I'm just copying the phrase in the novels, yet it actually worked!?

Yang Chen would never expect the reason he could break through was actually due to Yun Lintian trying to act cool…
