Yun Lintian's power showcase did startle not only Iryena but also everyone in the place. Especially Mu Qiuxue. Before this, Yun Lintian had shown the fire and lightning elemental techniques. She didn't expect him to be proficient in the water element too.
"Fire, Lightning, and water. All contradictory elements exist in one person…." Yavanna muttered while staring at the three elemental balls in Yun Lintian's palm in astonishment.
"Beyond Heaven King's successor?" Guchang looked at Yun Lintian in doubt. He had lived for a long time, but he had never heard anything about this Beyond Heaven King before.
Iryena took a deep breath, looking at Yun Lintian solemnly. "It's my honor to meet his successor here. However, the current Tree of Life is not in a good state. I'm afraid it might affect you."
"Hongyue?" Yun Lintian's expression was calm while he secretly asked Hongyue in his mind.
"It's true, but can you wait for another thousand years?" Hongyue replied casually.
Yun Lintian's face twitched slightly. He thought for a moment and said. "I understand your point, but I can't wait for it to recover. Furthermore, isn't the Dragon of Death locking up here? It's impossible for the Tree of Life to recover in this state."
Iryena went silent for a long time before asking. "Can you take us in?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYun Lintian was taken aback. He was thinking about how to rope Iryena and all the elves in. Unexpectedly, Iryena took the initiative to mention this herself.
Iryena thought that Yun Lintian didn't trust her, she hurriedly explained. "Forty thousand years ago, my mother brought everyone to pledge our loyalty to the Beyond Heaven King. The fact that he entrusted the Tree of Life in our hands has proven his trust in us."
Yun Lintian touched his chin, looking at Iryena thoughtfully. "I'm curious. Since I entered this place, everything seemed smooth-sailing to me. I start to feel like I'm getting deceived. Besides, the one you pledged your loyalty to is him, not me. It might sound ridiculous, but forgive me. I can't trust you just yet."
He couldn't be blamed for this, as he possessed a cautious nature. In his opinion, there must be something wrong with anything that went too smoothly.
In the Land of Beyond Heaven, Hongyue wanted to laugh loudly at Yun Lintian's statement. It was indeed ridiculous. Before this, he tried to gain the trust of Iryena, but the situation reversed instead.
"You don't have to think too much. I can guarantee she can be trusted unconditionally." Hongyue couldn't help saying.
"Why?" Yun Lintian frowned.
"Because I know her mother." A trace of sadness flashed across Hongyue's eyes as she spoke.
"Oh? Tell me more." Yun Lintian was surprised. No wonder Hongyue said this.
"There's nothing to tell you. Go ahead and take them in." Hongyue replied nonchalantly and went silent.
"Tsk. Stingy as always." Yun Lintian clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
He looked at Iryena and said. "Let's talk about the Dragon of Death first. Where is it right now?"
"He is locked up under the Tree of Life currently. His strength is recovering day by day. Until recently, he shows a sign of recovery and starts moving, as you can see when you came in." Iryena replied with a serious expression. "Once you take the Tree of Life away, he will surely bring calamity to this world."
"What's his strength?" Yun Lintian asked curiously.
From his judgment, Iryena's profound strength was at least the first level of the Divine Ascending Realm. Since she couldn't kill the so-called Dragon of Death, it meant the latter's strength was far higher than hers. If it came out, his current strength was insufficient to deal with it. He had to find a solution for this.
"In this world's system, his strength is roughly equal to the ninth level of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm," Iryena answered.
Yun Lintian and others were shocked to the core upon hearing this.
"Ninth level…." Guchang's face became unsightly. If that was truly the case, only Tianqi Zongwei could be rivaled by this Dragon of Death. They would be simply courting death here.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIryena said further. "Thanks to the Tree of Life's power. Otherwise, this tiny world would have been conquered by him four thousand years ago."
"Four thousand years ago? Don't tell me he is…." Guchang seemed to think of something.
Iryena looked at him and nodded her head gently. "You possess the Crimson Ox bloodline, which means you must experience the incident back then… Yes, the Dragon of Death is one of their leaders."
Even though he had expected this answer, Guchang still trembled in horror. He took a deep breath to calm down and asked. "I have never heard his name before. Could it be he was hiding from everyone all the time?"
Iryena shook her head. "When he arrived in this world, the Dragon of Death felt the Tree of Life's presence and immediately came all the way here. Fortunately, I managed to suppress him in the end."
Guchang nodded heavily. "The result would be otherwise if he freely moved back then." He suddenly bowed his head toward Iryena. "Thank you for saving us."
Iryena waved her hand, and a wisp of gentle breeze immediately straightened Guchang's body. "I did what I should do. Besides, the Dragon of Death still exists."
Listening to the conversation, Yun Lintian picked up a few words from them. First, the Dragon of Death had "arrived" in this world. Basically meant it didn't belong to this world in the first place. Then where did it come from?
Secondly, the battle in the past clearly consisted of several Divine Ascending Tribulation realm experts on both sides. Why didn't Yan Qi mention this to him? Perhaps he was afraid he would be overwhelmed by the information?
According to the information above, what was precisely the level of the Endless Sea Sovereign's strength? Was Han Bingling intentionally hiding this information from him, or was she genuinely clueless?
Several questions kept appearing in Yun Lintian's mind. He hadn't thought about these things before. More precisely, he didn't have time to think about it, as he constantly moved from place to place. However, one thing he was certain of right now was that someone tried to hide the information about these Abyssal Beasts' origin from the world.
