After sending Hua Xiaohui, Ye Huashan, and Yang Wenrui away, Yun Lintian returned to his newly built residence beside the waterfall. This place was designed and constructed by Yun Lingwei, reserved for him alone.
Sitting on the bed, Yun Lintian closed his eyes and asked. "Hongyue, why would heaven tribulation come to me so soon?"
"Simple. The Beyond Heaven King's power is something that breaks the balance of the universe. It shouldn't have existed, to begin with." Hongyue explained. "You have to understand that heaven itself can't even control all the basic elements."
"You can think of heaven as a warden of the universe. Its duty is to control the balance of the universe. Anything that could break the balance must be eliminated.
"Naturally, a practitioner itself is an existence that defies heaven… You might find it surprising that after the Primordial Era ended, humans and beasts returned to the primitive era where they couldn't even take a single step into the profound path. They kept getting eliminated by heaven tribulation time after time."
"However, as time passed, more and more practitioners were born. Some of them were fortunate enough to obtain inheritances from the Primordial Era. That included God's legacy. With that, they gradually adapted and rose in power step by step to the point they could overcome heaven tribulation and became what it was today."
Yun Lintian frowned and asked. "But those so-called Gods clearly stood above heaven. How did they become a god in the first place?"
"No one knows," Hongyue replied calmly. "There are many speculations about it. Some said there was an ancient god called the Primordial God of Creation, who was born out of nothingness, along with the universe."

"At that moment, he had two ways to choose. The first was to kill all the thirteen gods he had just created, and the second was to use his power to stabilize the balance."
"He chose the second one… Why?" Yun Lintian naturally knew the answer, as he had heard about the Primordial Wars from Lauya. What he was surprised about was that the Primordial God of Creation actually chose to sacrifice himself instead.
"Who knows? Perhaps he thought of them as his children, and he couldn't make up his mind to kill them." Hongyue shrugged.
Yun Lintian sighed softly. "If he knew that his 'children' later fought each other and almost broke the universe, he spent his life to stabilize it. I don't know how he would feel."
He paused for a moment and said further. "Thanks to Timeless God. Without him, we wouldn't be here and talk like this."
According to Lauya, the Timeless God was the one who stayed neutral and sacrificed himself just like his "father" to fix everything that suffered from the Primordial Wars. It could be said he was the benefactor of all living beings.
"…" Hongyue didn't express any opinion about this.
"Anyway, can I use The Earth's power to resist heaven tribulation?" Yun Lintian changed the topic.
"Of course, you can. But if you use too much, it would provoke more power from it. So, be careful." Hongyue replied.
"This is really troublesome." Yun Lintian muttered annoyingly.
He stuffed a handful of energy-regulating pills into his mouth and began to adjust his condition. His goal today was to break through to the Monarch Profound Realm.
Inside a beautiful courtyard not far away from Yun Lintian's residence, Lin Xinyao was sitting inside a white marble pavilion, looking at a flowerbed nearby calmly.
"How long are you going to hide it from him?" On the side, Mumu, who was drinking the spirit tea, asked.
Lin Xinyao replied. "I don't know… I don't know if it's a good idea to tell him now."
Mumu rolled her eyes as she said. "Humans are really complicated."
"Think about it. If he knows the truth, do you think he will still crave power?" Lin Xinyao said further. "I know him more than anyone else here. He, in fact, is not an ambitious person, but once he sets his goal, he will do everything to achieve it."
She turned to look at Mumu and said further. "Tell me, what will happen if he knows the truth?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMumu immediately went silent upon hearing this.
"You shouldn't tell him at the moment." Suddenly, Yun Qianxue's voice resounded, and her figure appeared in the pavilion.
She looked at Lin Xinyao and said further. "As you said, he's someone who prefers a leisurely life more than fighting every day. However, to achieve that life, he needs absolute power, and his current state is very good. You, who accompanied him in the past life, should have experienced it before."
Lin Xinyao's eyes glowed with a mysterious purple light as she looked at Yun Qianxue. "Did you dream as well?"
Yun Qianxue stared straight into Lin Xinyao's eyes and said calmly. "We're the same."
The two stared at each other for a long time, leaving Mumu dumbfounded on the side.
Mumu looked at Yun Qianxue deeply and lamented in her heart… Hah. What kind of fate is this?
"Eh, you're here as well?" At this moment, Han Bingling walked into the garden and looked at Yun Qianxue in surprise.
She stepped into the pavilion and sat down opposite Lin Xinyao. "What are you two talking about?"
"It's nothing, master. We are thinking about going back to the Eternal Frozen Cave." Lin Xinyao said with a faint smile.
"Well… I have a better place for you. Why don't you come with me to see Lintian?" Han Bingling thought of bringing Lin Xinyao into the Land of Beyond Heaven.
"A better place?" Lin Xinyao was slightly puzzled, but she seemed to think of something. During this period, she had witnessed people come and go magically around Yun Lintian, but since he didn't tell her, she didn't dare to ask it… Could it be something about this?
"Come with me." Han Bingling said and grabbed Lin Xinyao's hand, dragging her toward Yun Lintian's residence with Mumu and Yun Qianxue following behind…
