Myth Beyond Heaven

The old man stared for a while at the empty space where Yun Lintian and the others had stood earlier. Then, he turned to Yang Wu and Ye Ling. "If you need anything, don't hesitate to contact me directly," he said.

Ye Ling and Yang Wu were taken aback. "Understood, sir," they hurriedly responded.

The old man nodded with a smile and returned to his car.

"I'll be mostly in Beijing from now on. You can visit me there." Li Zong spoke to Ye Ling with a kind smile before entering the car.

Ren Jie quickly got in and drove away.

"This country is truly fortunate," Cai Yaoyao chuckled. If Yun Lintian had happened to be a citizen of another country, the old man and everyone here wouldn't have received such treatment from him.

"This must be fate," Yang Wu said gently. Though saddened that his young miss would be far away, he was genuinely happy for her.

Cai Yaoyao looked at Ye Ling and asked, "Are you heading back to the hospital, Sister Ye?"

"Yes," Ye Ling replied softly. "Being a nurse has always been my passion, and I won't give up on it."

"Alright," Cai Yaoyao nodded slightly. Since the orphanage and the hospital were close by, she could reach Ye Ling's side in a few minutes.

"I'll have to trouble Uncle Wu to take care of this place," Ye Ling said to Yang Wu. "Lintian always cared deeply about children. Back then, he'd always prioritize difficult cases involving children first."

"I'll do my best," Yang Wu said firmly.

Ye Ling raised her head to look at the bright sky and muttered, "I hope they're safe and sound."

"So, our planet isn't flat," Lei Hao mused thoughtfully, gazing at the beautiful blue planet from space.

His remark elicited chuckles from everyone.

"Are you a flat-earther?" Lynn asked with a smile. "Don't tell me you believe in a firmament too?"

Lei Hao chuckled. "I was just reading for fun back then."

He turned to look at the countless stars behind him and asked, "Why haven't we found any living beings?"

"Earth is special," Yun Lintian explained. "See, there's an invisible barrier around it."

Everyone scrutinized Earth again and noticed a faint barrier encircling it.

"I see," Lei Hao said with dawning comprehension. "So that's why none of the space exploration projects have managed to get past the barrier, huh?"

Yun Lintian smiled and waved his hand, producing the Cloud Dragon Ark from thin air.

The appearance of the gleaming white spaceship instantly startled Lei Hao and the two women.

"That's incredible!" Lei Hao exclaimed in awe.

"Let's board," Yun Lintian gestured, ushering everyone into the ark.

Lei Hao gaped at the luxurious interior, speechless. He felt like a country bumpkin experiencing a bustling city for the first time.

Yun Lintian tossed the spatial stone to Yun Yi. "We depart for the Kunlun Realm immediately."

Yun Yi acknowledged the order and headed for the control room. He placed the spatial stone on a console, and the system promptly identified the coordinates.

Zoom—

With a low hum, the space before the Cloud Dragon Ark rippled and warped, forming a swirling spatial rift. The ark surged forward and vanished into the rift in a flash of light.

"Is that a space jump?" Lei Hao asked, surprised.

"Similar in concept," Yun Lintian replied simply. "Take a seat."

Everyone quickly found a place to sit.

"Upon reaching the Kunlun Realm, you all will return to the Land of Beyond Heaven," Yun Lintian announced with a serious expression.

Lei Hao and the women readily agreed, aware of their limitations.

"Such a shame," Lei Hao lamented. "I won't get to witness the world of cultivation firsthand."

"There will be other opportunities," Yun Lintian reassured him with a smile.

"Boss, are there a lot of those classic, arrogant young masters there?" Lei Hao inquired curiously.

"Quite a few," Yun Lintian chuckled. "Similar to those in novels, many overestimate themselves due to their backgrounds. I've even encountered a few 'chosen ones.' Perhaps I'll introduce you later."

"I wouldn't be surprised if the first author who wrote about such characters was actually a cultivator themselves," Lynn remarked with a laugh.

"Maybe," Yun Lintian chuckled in agreement.

Excitement lingered in the air, a consequence of their recent departure from Earth. The group continued to chat, their topics revolving around the wonders of the cultivation world.

Time flew by, and as conversation waned, the Cloud Dragon Ark drew closer to a breathtaking, azure-hued planet – the Kunlun Realm.

According to the coordinates, the Kunlun Realm resided in the Eastern Region of the Nine Heavens Realm. Yun Lintian couldn't gauge its exact power, but judging from the exceptional environment he'd experienced previously, it undoubtedly ranked among the top realms here.

"Something seems off," Zhang Yu abruptly interjected.

Yun Lintian agreed. "We haven't encountered a single soul."

Logically, encountering no one in the vast expanse of space was improbable. They should have spotted at least some powerful beasts, yet their journey had been devoid of any life signs.

A frown creased Yun Yi's brow. "I have an unsettling feeling. Something significant must be happening."

Yun Lintian pondered for a moment. "For now, it's irrelevant to us. We can inquire with Senior Lan later. Let's descend."

Yun Yi complied and steered the ark towards the Kunlun Realm.

Upon breaching a layer of clouds, a breathtaking panorama unfolded before their eyes. Lush forests and majestic mountains dominated the landscape, interspersed with charming towns and bustling cities.

"This place reminds me of the Azure World, only with a more pristine environment," Yun Lintian remarked with surprise. The Kunlun Realm's initial impression mirrored the Azure World, albeit with a significantly enhanced environment.

"We should switch ships," Yun Lintian decided, producing the Fleeting Cloud Profound Skyship. The Cloud Dragon Ark was simply too conspicuous.

Once everyone had boarded the skyship, Yun Lintian stowed away the Cloud Dragon Ark.

Turning to Lei Hao and the two women, he said, "You can return to the Land of Beyond Heaven first." With that, he summoned the Gate of Beyond Heaven.

"Be careful," Yang Ningchang said softly before leading the others through the gate.

Yun Lintian gazed down at the town sprawled below. "Let's explore that town."

Taking control of the skyship, he steered it towards a small town in the distance…
