Myth Beyond Heaven



2220 Divine Realm (2)

Yun Lintian fell silent, lost in thought for a moment. Finally, he spoke. "I've never met my mother. My father told me about her situation, but I'm beginning to suspect it might not be as he believes."

Jiu Lang raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Let me be frank, Young Patriarch Yun," he said. "The chances of your mother being alive are, in my estimation, quite low. The Misty Cloud Palace, as I understand it, enforces strict rules. Cultivating their Misty Cloud Divine Art requires absolute chastity."

"llowever, to have birthed a talent like yourself, she must have been a gifted cultivator in her own right. This suggests she held a high position within the palace. Perhaps she was demoted or subjected to some other form of punishment."

Yun Lintian listened intently, his silence a stark confirmation of Jiu Lang's words. It mirrored his own growing suspicions.

"Just how powerful are they?" Yun Lintian asked calmly.

Jiu Lang's expression turned serious. "The Misty Cloud Palace boasts a formidable foundation. Their founder, Yun Xue, is a True God herself. They possess at least twenty elders who have reached the God Ascension Realm. However, their most potent force lies with the five peak masters. According to my knowledge, each one stands at the precipice of True Godhood - half-step True Gods.

The sheer might of the Misty Cloud Palace stunned Yun Lintian. No wonder Jiu Lang considered them the strongest.

While battling multiple God Ascension Realm opponents wouldn't faze him, the five peak masters presented a different challenge. Rescuing his mother seemed like a daunting task. Jiu Lang, as if reading his mind, spoke with sincerity. "Young Patriarch Yun, I advise you to reconsider. Your strength is undeniable, but these are beings at the pinnacle of power! Yun Lintian remained calm. "I understand my position. Now, I have another question. Why do people like you come to a place like this?"

Jiu Lang, anticipating this inquiry, answered truthfully. "The Great Wilderness Realm has witnessed the rise of a few True Gods in the past million years. One such being was Qing Shui, the founder of the Azure Royal Clan. My superiors sent me to investigate this anomaly, to uncover how such an ordinary realm could produce such extraordinary individuals."

Yun Lintian's eyebrow shot up slightly. "Interesting. And what became of them?"

Jiu Lang sighed. "While I cannot speak for the others, Qing Shui was hunted down and eliminated by forces from the Holy Land. Apparently, he had crossed paths with True Gods there. However, Qing Shui was also smart enough. He severed all ties with the Azure Royal Clan here, ensuring this place remained untouched by their wrath"

Yun Lintian's mind churned. The narrative aligned with what Qing Shui had told him, but there were discrepancies. It was clear Qing Shui had withheld crucial information.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

As for severing ties with his family, Yun Lintian trusted his own judgment. Qing Shui's actions, under the guise of protecting his family, struck Yun Lintian as suspicious, hinting at ulterior

motives.

"You heard the First Prince's words, Yun Lintian said to Jiu Lang.

Jiu Lang took a slow sip of his tea. "Initially, I had no intention of interfering in the affairs here. Ilowever, your arrival has piqued my curiosity. What course of action do you propose?"

Yun Lintian leaned forward. "Who is the National Master of the Zhao Kingdom? Are there others like him?"

"He's a disciple of the Sky Soaring Sect,' Jiu Lang replied indifferently. "Their power rivals my own. Negotiation was my initial plan, but it proved unsuccessful."

"There are hundreds of us here," Jiu Lang continued, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Each sent by their respective sects."

"So, there's a loophole in the rule," Yun Lintian chuckled, a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes.

Jiu Lang's faint smile widened in agreement. "Indeed, the rule applies to outsiders like us, but not those already residing here. The Zhao Emperor's warmongering intentions are quite transparent.

Yun Lintian said, "could you send a message to the Zhao National Master? Tell him to stay away from my family. The affairs of the Azure Royal Clan are no concern of mine.

Jiu Lang dipped his head in a gentle nod. "Consider it done. They won't dare to lay a hand on the Yun Clan."

Yun Lintian finished his tea and rose. "Thank you for the information. I'll take my leave now!" Jiu Lang stood and cupped his fists in respect. "Should Young Patriarch Yun find himself with free time, an invitation to visit my Everlasting Spring Sect stands."

"Perhaps there's a chance." Yun Lintian replied, returning the gesture before departing with Yun Ling.

Jiu Lang watched their figures recede, his beard thoughtfully stroked. Yun Lintian's background remained a puzzling enigma.

Leaving the palace behind, Yun Lintian bypassed Azure Cloud City and headed directly for the Azure Spring Grove.

"Is this the Sacred Grove?" Yun Ling asked, her eyes wide with wonder as she took in the lush greenery.

"Indeed," Yun Lintian replied with a smile. "This shall be your haven from now on. Cultivate diligently, and reaching the God Emperor Realm isn't out of the question."

Yun Ling chuckled, shaking her head in amusement. "Surely you jest, Young Master. With my talent, the Divine Sovereign Realm is a distant dream, let alone God Emperor."

Yun Lintian's hand shot out, swiftly grasping Yun Ling's wrist. The unexpected movement caught her completely off guard.

Before Yun Ling could even sputter a protest, she felt a shocking transformation sweep through her entire body.

A surge of energy surged through Yun Ling as her profound entrances began to open in rapid succession. Her profound veins, the pathways for profound energy, grew stronger and more resilient. She could feel a heightened affinity with the very elements that surrounded her. Shock filled Yun Ling's eyes as she turned to her Young Master. "Young Master, what...." she stammered, unable to form a complete question.

Yun Lintian offered a reassuring smile. "This must remain a secret for now," he explained. "I plan to use this power to strengthen our people. As long as they are loyal, like yourself, I will grant them this transformation. It will elevate the entire Yun Clan to new heights."

Though the Beyond Heaven King's Crown was absent, Yun Lintian could still inexplicably utilize its transformative ability. It felt as though the Crown lingered, unseen yet present for a mysterious reason.

With a final instruction, 'Stay on the shore and wait. Don't be afraid if there's a commotion," Yun Lintian withdrew his hand and plunged into the lake.
