Myth Beyond Heaven

Everyone, except for Yun Lintian, had a shocked expression on their faces upon hearing Tian Jiuyi's words. They always believed a dragon was something that existed in the legend only. Who would have thought that legendary existence was actually imprisoned here?

Yun Lintian recalled Han Bingling's words before coming here. She had told him this place had existed more than five thousand years, and she never mentioned anything about a dragon here. Why didn't she tell him? Did she really not know about it, or were there other reasons?

Yun Lintian frowned and asked. "Wait a minute. Does this Fallen Dragon have something to do with the war between Abyssal Profound Beast and humans four thousand years ago? It should be one of those beasts that escaped, right?" Since Abyssal Devourer was a part of Poison Valley, how could this Fallen Dragon, who seemed to be the big boss here wasn't one?

Tian Jiuyi looked at Yun Lintian deeply. "It seems Brother Yun knows a lot about the incident in the past… That's right. This Fallen Dragon is one of them that slipped through the net back then."

"Why did Lord Sky Throne imprison it instead of killing it? It doesn't make sense at all." Chu Heng asked in confusion. Though he didn't know about the incident back then, he could grasp the general idea from the conversation between Yun Lintian and Tian Jiuyi.

Tian Jiuyi took a deep breath and said. "My Ancestor couldn't kill it." Seeing everyone had a disbelief expression on their face, Tian Jiuyi continued. "You don't understand how terrifying the peak Monarch Profound Beast is. Not to mention, it possesses powerful Abyssal Poison that prevents us, humans, from getting near it. What's more, it has a heaven-defying regenerate ability. No matter how my Ancestor tried to kill it, it would recover in a short time. This rendered him helpless and could only set up a formation to imprison it here."

Yun Lintian recalled Abyssal Devourer's unbelievable regenerate ability he had witnessed hours ago, and his expression turned solemn… How could he suppose to fight with it?

"Did Lord Sky Throne try to ask for help from other palaces?" Qin Yuyan asked. 

Tian Jiuyi shook his head. "I also asked this question to my great-grandfather, but he never answered me. I don't understand why."

"Why don't you tell us how to prevent it from breaking out?" Yun Lintian asked directly. The enemy that even Lord Sky Throne couldn't kill, Yun Lintian didn't think he had the ability to achieve it, even with all the plot armors he had.

Tian Jiuyi exhaled and said solemnly. "The first method is to strengthen the formation. During this period, I have strengthened many formation nodes along the way. Still, there are a lot of them left."

Bai Qingyi suddenly recalled Tian Jiuyi's actions during these days. He was always curious about what did Tian Jiuyi try to do as he moved around from place to place and did something he didn't understand. It turned out Tian Jiuyi attempted to strengthen the formation.

Yun Lintian nodded and asked further. "What is the second method?"

"The second method is to activate the killing formation around the center area. My Ancestor had set up a powerful killing formation just in case. However, this method is too risky. Once we launched it and failed to kill them, we would have nothing to deal with them further, and the outer formation might be affected because of it." Tian Jiuyi answered.

"Just these two methods?" Yun Lintian furrowed his brows. Why did he feel this Lord Sky Throne was so unreliable? He freaking left only two ways to deal with a super-powerful enemy? What the heck? Did he think he could imprison this whatever dragon here forever with the formation?

Tian Jiuyi's silence answered everything. In fact, he didn't understand it as well. He remembered that his great-grandfather once told him that sometimes, things could not be prevented. Did he refer to this?

Yun Lintian let out a long sigh and said. "Tell me about the formation diagram. I'll help you." He added. "I am a Saint Formation Master."

Except for Qin Yiran, who had experienced Yun Lintian's scary formation profound art before, Tian Jiuyi and others looked at Yun Lintian in astonishment. Seventeen years old Saint Formation Master? Who would believe that?

"It's true. Otherwise, how do you think we have escaped from the Saint Profound Beast?" Qin Yiran saw the doubts on everyone's face. She stepped forward to vouch for Yun Lintian.

Tian Jiuyi became hesitant. It wasn't because he didn't believe Yun Lintian, but the formation diagram of this place was a secret of his clan. He could not tell the outsider about it.

"Why are you hesitating? Do you want the enemy to break out of this place and slaughter everyone on the continent?" Yun Lintian said with a deep frown. 

That's right. What's more important than people's lives? Thinking of this, Tian Jiuyi became determined. He took out an ancient parchment from his sleeve and placed it on the ground. "This is the formation diagram."

Yun Lintian said nothing further and began to study it.

***

On the tallest mountain within the academy, a white-hair old man with a plain white robe sat nearby a small stream, fishing calmly. There were zero movements on his body. It was as though he had entirely blended with the environment. 

The old man had no distinguishing features except for the absolutely serene aura that exuded from his body. With this alone, one could see he possess unfathomed power.

Swoosh!

All of a sudden, Han Bingling's figure appeared not far away from the old man. She didn't say a word and silently watched the old man.

Both of them remained silent until several minutes later, the old man opened his mouth. "Jiuyi is taking action. You shouldn't worry about it."

Han Bingling took a deep breath and asked. "How long do we have to leave them like this, Senior?"

The old man pulled the bamboo fishing rod in his hand up, and there was a small fish at the end of the string. He looked at the small fish with a smile and waved his hand, letting the small fish go.

"It won't be too long.." The old man responded calmly.
