Myth Beyond Heaven



The ground here was black, and the sky was an oppressive grayish-white color. The air was gloomy and hazy. No matter how Yun Lintian looked at it, it wasn't a place suitable for any living organisms to inhabit.

Yun Lintian walked through the narrow and dirty streets. Along the way, there were countless beggars, ranging from young children to the elderly. Most of them didn't even have proper clothes to wear, and they were sadly thin. Compared to the slums on Earth, this place was several times worse.

Yun Lintian looked at a group of young children lying around on the streets with sympathy. He wanted to help them, but Master Bai stopped him first.

"Do not be softhearted here. Once you become involved with them, you will never be able to leave this place." Master Bai said solemnly.

"Why is that?" Yun Lintian asked in doubt.

"They are cursed." Master Bai glanced at the people around him and continued speaking. "The entire Death Sea Realm itself can be regarded as a forbidden land. Any living beings born here will be bound by an unknown curse, preventing them from ever escaping this place for the rest of their lives."

"Because the environment here is not suitable for growing anything. The only way for them to find food is to go to the danger-filled Death Sea. There are only a few people with talents, and these people certainly won't take care of others. Hence, most people here keep giving birth to children in the hope that their children will be born with talents and take care of them."

Master Bai sighed. "If they don't have talents, they will be raised like livestock."

Yun Lintian's face darkened, and his heart grew cold. He had always been sensitive to children, and the situation here was unbearable for him.

"I can understand your feelings because I was the same back then. However, there is nothing we can do about this situation. Even if you help them right now, the situation will never change. Once you leave, these people will be targeted in the end." Master Bai said.

Yun Lintian scanned the people around him using the Eyes of Heaven and noticed peculiar black dots on their bodies. They looked similar to the black worm in the Star Graveyard but much stronger.

He felt the urge to try, but he wasn't sure if he could help them. It would also be risky to expose himself here.

"Find a sailor and a boat first. You can consider how to help them once you obtain Gui Shen's blood origin." Master Bai gently tapped Yun Lintian's head to remind him.

Yun Lintian could only suppress the uncomfortable feeling in his heart as he walked towards the tavern.

Soon, Yun Lintian arrived at the tavern called Breath of Death. It was one of the few buildings here that looked relatively decent, even though it was made of strange mud and gloomy wood.

Yun Lintian didn't see anyone around here. It was as if no one dared to approach this place. Obviously, the owner must be a powerful figure in this area.

Without further hesitation, Yun Lintian pushed the door open and entered. The first thing he saw was a row of tables and a long counter at the end of the hall. The atmosphere here was eerily gloomy, seemingly filled with an aura of death.

There were a few people sitting separately, eating some strange black meat that Yun Lintian had never seen before, and he definitely didn't want to try it.

When Yun Lintian appeared, all eyes immediately focused on him. More precisely, they were looking at the cat and bird on him. In this place, any living beings were considered delicacies. Especially animals such as dogs, cats, and birds.

"Can we kill them, Big Brother Yun? I don't like their stares." Qingqing pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Ignore them. Go to the counter and ask that man." Master Bai spoke.

Yun Lintian briefly glanced at the people and headed straight to the long counter.

Behind the counter stood a middle-aged man with a long beard. He looked healthier compared to everyone he had ever seen here.

"What do you want?" The man asked while cleaning a glass.

"I'm here to find a sailor and a boat to go to the Death Sea." Yun Lintian replied.

Silence blanketed the hall as everyone turned to look at Yun Lintian with strange expressions.

The man set the glass down and gazed deeply at Yun Lintian. "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Name your price." Yun Lintian said calmly.

The man stared at Yun Lintian for a long while and said. "Come with me."

With that, he walked into a nearby door.

Yun Lintian glanced at the people in the hall and noticed everyone staring at him as if he were a piece of fine steak. He ignored them and followed the man into the backroom.

Pa!

The man closed the door and led Yun Lintian to the second floor.

"My name is Li Gen," The man said while opening a door for Yun Lintian.

"Ye Xiaolong." Yun Lintian responded and entered a room. It was a study room furnished with a desk and a worn-out sofa.

Li Gen went to sit behind the desk and gestured for Yun Lintian to take a seat. "It's been a long time since I've seen a customer like you. Tell me. How did you know about this place?"

Yun Lintian sat down and took out a set of tea and pastries. "Is it important?"

Li Gen briefly looked at the spirit tea and sweet pastries in front of him, then took them without hesitation.

"I can't remember the last time I tasted such a good tea and snack." Li Gen carefully savored the taste of the tea and pastry.

After a while, he put down the teacup and said. "Of course. It's not important. However, you need to tell me about your destination first so that I can calculate the price."

"Black Immortal Palace." Master Bai suddenly spoke.

Li Gen looked at the ordinary-looking bird on Yun Lintian's head in surprise. He shook his head and said. "I won't go there. You can find someone else."

"A hundred million high-grade Divine Stones." Master Bai said calmly. "I can also give you the Heart of Fire."

Li Gen's expression changed dramatically. He looked at Master Bai with caution. "Who are you? How do you know about my condition?"
