Myth Beyond Heaven

From how the three men dressed, they should be from the same sect. Yun Lintian found it strange. Why did they regroup with each other so fast? Did he miss something?

Roar!

The giant lizard went utterly berserk. It let out a furious roar while stomping its feet around, producing a powerful earth wave. 

The three men had already retreated to the distance, but they were still caught by the earth wave. The leader, who was called Brother Du, hurriedly conjured profound defense to help the other two. Although it could not entirely protect them, it could reduce the damage considerably.

While he was stabilizing himself on the ground, Brother Du let out an explosive roar as he vaulted into the air; the long sword in his hands released a ferocious wave of sword force, shooting straight at the lizard's head.

"Die for me! Whirlwind Sword Strike!"

Instantaneously, a powerful whirlwind appeared around the long sword in Brother Du's hands and ruthlessly pierced into the giant lizard's head, causing it to scream madly.

"Ouhhhhhhh!" The giant lizard frantically swung every limb around for a while until its vitality had completely depleted and died a moment later.

"Phew… that was close." Brother Du wiped the sweat out of his forehead and smiled contently with his achievement.

"Brother Du is mighty!" The other two men gave a thumb up and prepared to dissect the giant lizard remains.

At this moment, Brother Du, Du Xiangkong, suddenly saw Yun Lintian, who was staring at them behind the ancient withered tree in the distance. His face turned solemn slightly but soon replaced with an enthusiastic smile. "Hey, brother! I remember you are Yun Lintian who got the twentieth place."

Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. He didn't expect this person could actually recognize him. He didn't move toward Du Xiangkong but pointed at the lizard remains. "If I was you, I wouldn't touch that corpse."

From their look, Yun Lintian believed they had no clue about Abyssal Energy, and this giant lizard should be their first prey after coming here. What made Yun Lintian puzzled was that there was someone who didn't know about this nowadays? The Poison Valley's incident should be well known to everyone in Northern Continent by now, wasn't it?

Du Xiangkong was startled and turned to stop his comrades. He then asked. "What's wrong, Brother Yun? Is there something wrong with this?"

The other two men were also looking over with doubts. 

Yun Lintian asked. "Have you heard about Abyssal Poison?"

Du Xiangkong pondered for a moment, and soon, his face changed drastically. His figure flashed and brought the two men away from the lizard's remains. "Don't tell me…."

"That's right, every profound beast here has infected with Abyssal Poison. You can kill them, but dissecting them by ordinary means is impossible. I suggest you should leave it alone after killing it." Yun Lintian explained briefly. 

Du Xiangkong clasped his hands together and said sincerely. "Thank you for giving us a warning, Brother Yun. I'll remember this kindness."

Yun Lintian nodded and pointed in the direction behind him. "This place is close to the center of the forest, and it's extremely dangerous. If you believe me, you can go in this direction to reach the perimeter area." He turned to look at the lizard remains and said. "You know what, I have encountered many Earth Profound Beasts along the way here. You are so lucky to meet Spirit Profound Beast here."

Perhaps it was because of Yun Lintian's calm and mature demeanor, Du Xiangkong did not doubt his words at all. He nodded his head solemnly and replied. "Thank you, Brother Yun. We will head to the outer area now."

Although the other two men had some doubts in their hearts, they didn't say it out in front of Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian gave a slight nod and jumped onto the tree nearby, disappearing from the three men's sights.

"Brother Du, why did you believe him?" One of the two men asked curiously.

Du Xiangkong took a deep breath. "Have you forgotten what master told us before coming here?"

The other two men were startled for a moment and muttered uncertainly. "Could he be…"

Du Xiangkong nodded his head slightly. "That's right. Master has used his Divination Technique on everyone in the top hundred rankings. He's the only one that Master couldn't see his fate. That's why I always remember his appearance and name. Master said such a person wouldn't have a sinister character."

He paused for a second and continued. "Have you noticed? He should have been there for a while now. He could take advantage and kill all of us in one go, but he didn't do anything except secretly watching us. So you can trust him, at least in this matter."

"We understand now, Brother Du." The two men were convinced entirely.

Du Xiangkong glanced in the direction where Yun Lintian disappeared and said to himself in a low voice. "What an interesting person."

Yun Lintian actually didn't go away too far. He concealed himself and calmly watched Du Xiangkong's group go away. At the same time, he was thinking about Du Xiangkong's words earlier… Divination Technique? And his master can't see my fate? 

Yun Lintian felt weird, but it was understandable. As someone with plot armor, this kind of situation wasn't something strange. What piqued his curiosity was Du Xiangkong's master. He had read the book about divination techniques before. This kind of profound art was going against the sky, and the one who practiced it must pay a huge price every time he performed the divination.

Why would Du Xiangkong's master waste his power to make divination on the people in the top hundred rankings? This was the question Yun Lintian wanted to know the most.

Forget it. I better find a place to sleep first… Although Yun Lintian could go on a month without sleeping, he had spent too much mental power today. In order to recover faster, he had to sleep.

Yun Lintian glanced at the disappearing sun on the horizon and shifted his gaze to the gloomy path ahead of him.. His figure immediately blended into the surroundings, disappearing from the place.
