Myth Beyond Heaven

As Yun Lintian continued to practice, Yun Ruanyu suddenly walked over and said. "Lintian, it's time."

Yun Lintian retracted his sword and nodded gently. "Alright. Is everyone ready?"

"They are waiting for you on the skyship." Yun Ruanyu replied.

"I'll be there in a while." Yun Lintian said and walked into his residence.

The conference would be started in two weeks, and he had to visit Yun Xia first to prepare a further plan. After changing his clothes, he picked Linlin and Qingqing up and went to the Heavenly Cloud Profound Skyship that was waiting for him not far away.

On this trip, aside from Linlin and Qingqing, Yun Lintian brought Yun Qianxue, Mu Qiuxue, Han Bingling, Lin Xinyao, Yun Huanxin, and Yun Meilan with him. As for Lei Zhenxiang and the others, they were inappropriate to appear at the moment.

With Lu Bo, Long Shen, Ren Muyang, and the three of Ye Huashan, Yang Wenrui, and Hua Xiaohui, he didn't need to worry about the safety of the Misty Cloud Sect.

Just as Yun Lintian boarded the skyship, Qingxuan suddenly appeared above the Moon Garden and landed in front of him. Her sudden appearance startled Yun Lintian greatly.

Under the bamboo hat, her closed eyes seemed to stare at Yun Lintian attentively as she said. "You have to pass the trial. Otherwise, I will personally kill you myself."

Yun Lintian was taken aback. "Trial? What are you talking about?"

Qingxuan didn't reply. She turned around and left directly, returning to her residence under Yun Lintian's puzzled gaze.

"What's wrong with her, Hongyue?" Yun Lintian asked confusedly.

"How would I know?" Hongyue curled her lips. "However, you don't need to doubt her words. She will certainly do as she said."

Yun Lintian's brows tightly knitted together as he muttered. "What kind of trial did she talk about? Is it the Golden Mountain?"

Thinking about this, he forgot to ask her about the Golden Mountain Ruins. However, considering how she acted currently, it was impossible to get an answer.

He shook his head, putting this matter aside, and said to Yun Lingwei. "Let's go."

Yun Lingwei nodded and controlled the skyship, setting off toward the Central Continent.

While Yun Lintian's group was setting off, Nantian Xuanyu's side was also ready to leave for the conference.

"Are you sure you want to go?" Nantian Xuanyu looked at her daughter, Nantian Fengyu, in doubt.

"My good junior brother should go there. I haven't seen him for a long time now." Nantian Fengyu replied calmly.

After training with Divine Phoenix during this period, her bloodline had fully awakened, and her profound strength had improved by leaps and bounds. She had now reached the fifth level of the Monarch Profound Realm from the peak of the Saint Profound Realm.

Moreover, her temperament had also changed. From a playful young girl to a calm, mature woman, despite her appearance was still the same as before.

Standing beside her daughter, Nantian Xuanyu could clearly feel the bloodline suppression from her, even though her realm was higher. It could be seen that Nantian Fengyu's Divine Phoenix bloodline had reached the purest level.

She frowned slightly upon hearing her daughter's words. "I don't know what kind of plan Xing Tengfei came up with, but it's definitely dangerous. It is also uncertain whether your junior brother will go there. After all, his strength should be insufficient to protect himself."

It wasn't that she looked down on Yun Lintian, but rather she knew he was a cautious person. It was unlikely he would jump into an obvious trap.

Nantian Fengyu snorted coldly. "He's definitely stronger than me now. You don't know anything about him."

Nantian Xuanyu was speechless. She thought her daughter would change her mind after training with Lord Divine Phoenix for a long time. It turned out she was pretty much the same as before—overprotecting her junior brother.

Sometimes, Nantian Xuanyu was jealous of Yun Lintian. Why wouldn't her daughter care about her like this?

"I will go with her." Suddenly, Nantian Xiulan walked over.

"Second Ancestor." Nantian Xuanyu bowed slightly and asked. "This is not good, right? There's no need to take a risk."

Nantian Xiulan smiled faintly. "I have been hiding here for thousands of years, and it's time for me to reemerge again in this world."

"But…" Nantian Xuanyu wanted to say something but was interrupted halfway.

"No but." Nantian Xiulan said calmly. "In the past centuries, our Divine Phoenix Palace has been declining rapidly to the point those second-rated forces don't show us respect anymore. This is the right time for us to show our prestige, telling the world that we are not as weak as they think."

Hearing this, Nantian Xuanyu bowed her head deeply and said solemnly. "I'm sorry, Second Ancestor. It's all because of me. I have failed to live up to everyone's expectations… I am willing to step down."

Nantian Xiulan shook her head. "It has nothing to do with you. Among the nine palaces, we are in the weakest position regarding the number of new disciples. Not everyone is worthy of our Divine Phoenix bloodline. And because of this, we are destined to decline at some points."

She then turned to look at Nantian Fengyu, and a glimmer of hope appeared in the depths of her eyes. "However, we are different now. I believe Fengyu will bring our Divine Phoenix Palace to unprecedented heights… I will use this old bone of mine to protect her until she can fly on her own."

Nantian Fengyu pouted when she heard this. "I can fly by myself, though…."

Nantian Xiulan laughed gently and patted Nantian Xuanyu's shoulder. "Let's go. There's no need to worry about safety here. I have already arranged for someone to take care of it."

Nantian Xuanyu finally nodded her head and boarded the skyship with everyone, setting off toward the Central Continent.

Outside the Divine Phoenix Palace, a young man with a wooden mask watched as the skyship flew away with a strange light flashed through his eyes. He then turned to look in the Divine Phoenix Palace's direction and slowly walked toward it.

This person was no other than Yang Chen. He came here for one goal, which was the Divine Phoenix Flame!
