Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1580 Ancient Battlefield (1)

Kong Xun quickly used his divine sense to check the pants that were no different from an old rag in someone's kitchen and discovered nothing. He checked it out repeatedly and confirmed that it was indeed a rag.

"Pfft!" Jiang Shuren covered her mouth and laughed.

Kong Xun's face twitched slightly as he reluctantly put the rag away. Although he wanted to throw it away immediately, he still hoped something was inside it.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't help it." Jiang Shuren continued to laugh for a good while.

Yu Zhilan stepped forward and reached into the vortex, pulling out an exquisite long sword that appeared to be made of ice.

Clang!

All of a sudden, the sword vibrated and transformed the entire space into an icy field.

The sudden outbreak caught everyone off guard. They stared in shock at the sword in Yu Zhilan's hand.

Yu Zhilan's cold aura burst out as she tried to control the sword. However, the ice sword was extremely fierce. It struggled hard to leave Yu Zhilan's hand and even released power to freeze her entire arm.

Yun Lintian and the others didn't come forward to help her, as she had to suppress the sword on her own. Otherwise, it wouldn't recognize her as a master.

At the same time, the Heaven Piercing Sword, which was in the form of a necklace around Yun Lintian's neck, started vibrating. Yun Lintian could feel a hint of excitement emanating from it as if it were reuniting with a long-lost friend.

Yun Lintian briefly glanced at the necklace but ultimately took no action. He was waiting to see whether Yu Zhilan could suppress the ice sword.

Blue lights lit up in Yu Zhilan's eyes, and her hair was instantly covered in frost. She seemed to transform into an ice goddess in that instant.

Yu Zhilan's aura gradually enveloped the sword's aura, swirling around its edge and steadily overpowering the bone-chilling cold aura that surrounded it, little by little.

The ice sword continued to struggle but was visibly weakened as time passed.

Five minutes later, the ice sword struggled less and less until it became completely motionless.

Crack!

The layers of frost on Yu Zhilan's body cracked and shattered into countless ice particles as she swung the sword a few times.

"Congratulations, Sister Yu." Jiang Shuren said with a smile. "This sword is definitely a God Emperor-level artifact."

"Congratulations." Kong Xun said enviously. Others either received a top-tier profound art or a powerful weapon, but he actually got a rag. Even an honest and sincere person like him couldn't hide his envy.

"Thank you." Yu Zhilan said with a hint of delight in her usually cold voice. Although the sword was slightly inferior to the Rainmaker Sword of Yu Wuying, it was undoubtedly a God Emperor artifact. With this, her Rain God Realm would possess two God Emperor artifacts, which made the realm stronger significantly.

"It's your turn now." Jiang Shuren turned to Yun Lintian. She was curious about what kind of treasure Yun Lintian would receive.

Yun Lintian nodded and reached out into the vortex. A moment later, he pulled out a gorgeous white pearl that emitted powerful spiritual energy.

Everyone stared at it curiously. Except for the immense soul power within the pearl, it appeared to be nothing more than that.

Yun Lintian carefully observed the pearl with the Eyes of Heaven and concluded that it was an artifact designed to enhance one's soul power. However, he found it to be useless for his own purposes.

"Well, at least it's better than the rag I received." Kong Xun comforted him.

Yun Lintian nodded and put it away.

The vortex gradually vanished at that moment, and a starlight gate immediately emerged from it.

Yun Lintian wasn't hurrying to go in, as he said. "Since those people have also received rewards before entering, we must be more cautious. After all, we don't know what artifacts they got."

Jiang Shuren probed the gate with her divine sense and said. "This is bad. We don't even know what awaits us on the other side. What if we were sent to random locations again? The transmission jade is not working here. It will be very difficult for us to contact each other."

"Furthermore, the Red Fall Devil God Emperor recently fled to this location. He is likely to be on the other side."

"Red Fall Devil God Emperor?" Yun Lintian was puzzled.

Jiang Shuren then recounted the situation to him.

Upon hearing this, Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. His current strength was clearly insufficient to contend with any God Emperors. If he wanted to retrieve the Light Pole, the likelihood of him confronting them was very high. This was the worst situation he could have faced.

Not to mention those ancient practitioners who came here a long time ago. He didn't know if they were still alive. It would be even more difficult if that was the case.

Thinking about this, Yun Lintian closed his eyes and focused on the connection between himself and the Light Pole. It was so strong that Yun Lintian believed it was coming from the other side of the gate.

He opened his eyes and said. "Whatever is on the other side should be the final stage here. If we were truly separated when we go in, I hope seniors will try your best to avoid fighting as much as possible. We will find a way to regroup."

Yu Zhilan suddenly raised her hand, and three ice crystals appeared in the air. She waved her hand gently, sending the crystals to Yun Lintian and the other two. "Keep this with you. I will know your location immediately."

Yun Lintian and the other two were slightly surprised and carefully put the ice crystals away.

Glancing at each other, Yun Lintian nodded. "Let's go."

With that, he walked into the starlight gate, followed closely by Yu Zhilan and the other two.

The moment Yun Lintian stepped out of the gate, a wave of the bloody smell immediately blasted against his face. The scene in front of him was a vast, desolate land with scattered bones and bloodstains covering the ground. It looked like a vast battlefield.

In the far distance, at the edge of Yun Lintian's vision, he spotted a tower. A beam of white light shot from its roof, reaching towards the somber sky filled with grey clouds. It resembled a sword piercing through the heavens.

"Thankfully, we are not separated." Jiang Shuren walked out of the gate and stood beside Yun Lintian.

Kong Xun looked around the place vigilantly and said. "How many lives have been lost here? The smell of blood is so strong."
