Myth Beyond Heaven

"How dare you!?"

Jue Kong let out a furious roar. Never did he think he would get played by these ants. He felt extremely humiliating and seemed to have lost his usual calmness.

A black light abruptly burst out of his body, and Yun Meilan quickly activated Shadow Step to avoid it before she could land her attack.

BOOM!

Yun Lingwei activated the defensive formation, and Huoyun Zhu also created a profound barrier on top of it.

The burst of black light touched the barrier and directly shattered it. Yun Lingwei and others were immediately blown away by the impact.

"I won't play with all of you anymore." Jue Kong's raging killing intent immediately covered the whole forest, sending everyone into an abyss of despair.

A giant black ball gathered in his mouth. He aimed it at the Tree of Life and roared. "Die!"

Yun Ruanyu and others went pale directly. No matter how strong their fortitudes were, staying calm under the death threat was impossible.

"Are we going to die here?" Yun Lingwei muttered while struggling to get up. She looked at the black beam that was about to descend unwillingly.

At this moment, Yun Lintian found himself in the familiar dark world. This was the fourth time he had experienced this. He wasn't panicking like before and calmly called out. "Lauya?"

A graceful woman in a floral robe appeared before him. Her green hair was like the most beautiful vines, neatly decorated with exquisite flowers. Her emerald eyes were filled with gentleness, radiating a noble aura.

She lowered her head and knelt on one knee. "I'm pleased to meet you this way, My King."

Even though Yun Lintian had expected this beforehand, he was still surprised by Lauya's appearance. He hurriedly said. "Please get up. No need to be polite in front of me. I'm not a king, anyway."

"You will be, My King." Lauya smiled gently and got up from the ground.

Yun Lintian didn't linger on this topic further. He asked. "How can I integrate with the Tree of Life faster?"

"Simple," Lauya said lightly. "You have to accept me."

"Accept you? What do you mean?" Yun Lintian was puzzled.

"It means like this," Lauya suddenly drew closer to Yun Lintian and gently kissed his lips.

Yun Lintian was bewildered by Lauya's sudden action. However, he immediately discovered the warm current pouring into his body and soul like a raging river. At the same time, he could feel his realm gradually rising, both Essence and Soul, which made him subconsciously stay put in this posture.

As time passed, Yun Lintian even reached his arms out to hold Lauya close to him and closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth brought by Lauya.

A few breaths later, Lauya's body glowed in the beautiful green light and became transparent. Yun Lintian felt something and opened his eyes. He was shocked and hurriedly left Lauya. "What's going on?"

A faint blush on Lauya's cheeks as she said. "This is the way to integrate with you… Don't worry, My King. I didn't go anywhere. Once the Tree of Life appears in the Land of Beyond Heaven, I will also be there."

Yun Lintian let out a sigh of relief. He looked at Lauya's beautiful face and said hesitantly. "Then… Should we continue?"

Lauya covered her mouth and laughed. "Yes, please."

Yun Lintian boldly hooked Lauya's willow waist and kissed her. In the next moment, Lauya began to dissipate and wholly disappeared into Yun Lintian's body.

"This power…" Yun Lintian opened his eyes as he felt a terrifying power surge within his body. He quickly looked at his Origin Core and saw a green-colored light emerge beside the red, blue, and purple light. Evidently, he had successfully integrated with the Wood element.

"My strength…?" Yun Lintian closed his eyes and started to perceive his profound strength. With a bang, his realm immediately broke through to the second, third, and fourth levels, all the way to the peak of the Ruler Profound Realm.

"Phew… So amazing. Is the Tree of Life truly declining? Why did it give me so much power? A lot better than The Moon." Yun Lintian said to himself in puzzlement.

He shook his head slightly and said. "Never mind. It's time to wake up. I don't know what happened on the outside right now?"

On the outside world, when the black beam was about to reach the Tree of Life. All of a sudden, a white figure jumped into the air, accompanied by countless lightning bolts, and went directly at the black beam.

Roar—

Linlin let out a deafening cry and sent countless lightning bolts around her toward the black beam along with her body. She had spent everything in this attack in order to ensure Yun Lintian's safety.

BOOM!

The golden lightning bolts and the black beam intertwined fiercely before exploding out. Linlin's figure was sent flying by the impact and fell from the sky like a meteor.

Iryena's reaction was incredibly quick. She summoned several vines to receive Linlin and safely brought her to the ground.

"Big Brother Yun…" Linlin struggled to look at Yun Lintian, who was wrapped by the tree branches, before losing consciousness.

"Linlin!" Yun Lingwei and others hurriedly came to Linlin's side, looking at her worriedly.

"Don't worry. She's fine. She has overdraft her power." Iryena said.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, but the heaviness in their heart didn't go away. They turned toward the sky, looking at Jue Kong unwillingly.

"Oh?" Jue Kong was stunned by Linlin's appearance and then became ecstatic. "Hahaha! This deity is truly lucky! There's actually a Divine Beast here! Hahaha!"

Jue Kong's wild laughter reverberated throughout the continent, causing everyone to tremble in fear.

"With this. This deity can recover within a year. Kekeke…This is really unexpected." Jue Kong laughed for a good while and said with joy.

"This deity shall get rid of these flies first and enjoy the delicious Divine Beast next." Jue Kong grinned and sent out another black beam. This time, he exerted more strength in order to get rid of the Tree of Life and everyone thoroughly.

The black beam descended once again. This time, Yun Ruanyu and others were genuinely out of play. They could only watch the black beam rushing toward them in despair.

Amidst of despair moment, Yun Lintian's eyes suddenly snapped open, releasing a brilliant green radiance…
