Myth Beyond Heaven

"Where is it? Big brother didn't see anything here." Yun Lintian looked around the cave in doubt.

"It's a smell." Linlin wrinkled her nose slightly. "Big Brother Yun can walk further."

"Alright." Yun Lintian didn't hesitate to keep walking through the passage and soon arrived at a seventy-square-meter area.

A small fountain could be seen at the top right corner, and there was nothing else in this hall.

Nantian Lingyan and the others scanned every corner of the hall with their Spiritual Sense but couldn't find anything in the end. It seemed this trip was simply a waste of time.

Just as they were about to say something to Yun Lintian, they suddenly saw Yun Lintian walk toward the small fountain and squat down in front of it.

"Is it here?" Yun Lintian asked.

Linlin jumped down from Yun Lintian's shoulder, sniffed around the fountain for a while, and said. "There's something beneath this. This fountain somehow has the ability to isolate our Spiritual Sense. I wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't because of the smell."

"Alright. Step back first." Yun Lintian said, and Linlin quickly jumped onto his shoulder.

Yun Lintian took a step backward, and the White Dragon Spear appeared in his hand. He pointed the spear at the ground beneath the fountain and exerted his profound energy before thrusting forward.

Bang!

The fountain immediately shattered, and a large hole could be seen underneath it. After Yun Lintian pried the dirt away, an extensive hollow immediately came into his vision. At the same time, a strong smell flew out, causing everyone to subconsciously block their nose.

Yun Lintian quickly opened Eyes of Heaven, and he was surprised by the scene he saw. Divine energy streamed out from the hollow. Its intensity was roughly the same as those Divine Stones he found in the Water Cave.

"This… divine energy?" Nantian Lingyan was momentarily stunned.

As the Divine Phoenix Palace disciple, she was well aware of the divine energy's importance. Just a tiny portion of it could easily allow one's strength to increase by leaps and bounds!

"Don't hastily absorb it. We have to determine its source first. What's more. You may accidentally make a breakthrough and get expelled by the restrictions here." Yun Lintian warned despite knowing there shouldn't be any danger by absorbing the divine energy.

Hearing this, Nantian Lingyan and the others quickly held themselves back.

Yun Lintian used his spear to open the hollow entrance, and soon a piece of gigantic golden bone with complicated runes appeared in everyone's sight.

"Heaven Devourer Beast. Interesting. People who are capable enough to raise it could be counted in two hands." Hongyue's voice suddenly resounded in Yun Lintian's mind.

"Heaven Devourer Beast?" Yun Lintian rummaged through the information in his head, but he couldn't find a piece related to the Heaven Devourer Beast.

"Heaven Devourer Beast is an extremely ancient race. According to the record, its origin could be traced back to the Primordial Era. As its name suggests, it is capable of devouring everything. Even heaven is no exception." Hongyue gave a brief introduction.

"Judging from this piece of bone, it should be very young before it died," Hongyue said further. There was a trace of sorrow in her voice, but Yun Lintian didn't notice it.

"What should I do with it, then?" Yun Lintian asked.

"Take it away. Its bone could be used to make a weapon or even a profound ark." Hongyue said softly.

Yun Lintian turned to look at everyone and said. "I will take this away. Do you have any objection?"

Xue Qianqian was the first to wave her hand. "Senior Brother Yun is the one who discovered it. It belongs to you in the first place. How could we dare to have an objection?"

"Sister Xue is right. Senior Brother Yun can take it away at ease." Tong Mi'er echoed.

Yun Lintian nodded and stored the bone away. "Everyone can find a place to sit down and absorb the divine energy. However, you must pay attention to your foundation. Do not be greedy and try to suppress the realm as much as possible. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee that you wouldn't be expelled from the island."

"Yes." Xue Qianqian and the others were delighted and quickly found a place to sit down.

"What about you, Senior Brother Yun?" Nantian Lingyan didn't practice like everyone as she was a half step away from breaking through to the Saint Profound Realm.

"I will study the bone for a while. I'll leave the guard duty to you." Yun Lintian said and walked out of the cave before finding a relatively remote place to set up a concealing formation.

While Yun Lintian was studying the bone, somewhere on the island's east side, Situ Chaofeng and his fellow brothers were heartily collecting precious plants.

"Senior Brother Feng, don't you think it's a bit strange?" A young man named Ding Hui asked.

Situ Chaofeng glanced at the unusually abundant precious plants and flowers and said. "Indeed. I remembered the last time we came here, we couldn't even get more than twenty stalks."

Ding Hui nodded in agreement. "That's right. Also, you can look at the ages of these plants. The youngest one is more than fifty years old, and the oldest one is already two hundred years old. They shouldn't be able to survive until now, right?"

The Heaven Vault Island had been visited several times in a year. According to commonsense, it was impossible for those visitors to leave these old plants behind. Not to mention this place was only a perimeter area.

Situ Chaofeng's brows knitted together. He had also thought about it but couldn't find any proper reason to explain this… Unless these plants had just appeared recently, but how could it be possible?

"Forget it. We have already found the Burning Heart Flower. Our mission could be considered half complete. Next, we should reunite with Yun Lintian." Situ Chaofeng shook his head.

Ding Hui frowned slightly. "Senior Brother Feng, I don't understand why we should follow Yun Lintian? He's obviously our enemy."

Situ Chaofeng replied calmly. "Although he's our enemy, there's no reason to not follow him. Didn't you see his strength before? I admit he's probably the strongest person in the younger generation I have ever seen. Since he's that powerful, we should make use of him by letting him become our bodyguard."

Ding Hui's eyes lit up as he said. "Senior Brother Feng is wise!"
