Myth Beyond Heaven

In the training room, a gentle orange and green flame revolved around Yun Lintian's body. The flame constantly gave off a tranquil aura, entirely different from the usual violent property of the flame.

Puff!

When Yun Lintian's eyes snapped open, the flame instantly dispersed, leaving a soft brilliance of light behind before slowly fading away.

"Not bad," Hongyue's voice resounded. "But it's still far from enough. The Vermilion Bird's flame has another name, Flame of Life. What does it mean? It means you can use it to save a life, but you can also take life away. Right now, you're more inclining toward the former side. Your flame didn't even have the slightest of killing intent, which is wasting its potential."

Yun Lintian frowned and said. "I don't need it to kill anyone. There are plenty of other methods."

"You're not entirely wrong, but not correct, either. When you need to master something, you have to understand it thoroughly. You can't just use half of it. What if one day you want to use it to save one's life, but because your control ability is too weak, you end up killing that person instead?"

Yun Lintian lowered his head, falling into deep thought. What Hongyue said was true. He couldn't find a reason to refute. Perhaps because he was a doctor, he subconsciously treated the Vermilion Bird's flame as a life-saving tool instead of a killing tool.

"I understand." Yun Lintian said while adjusting his way of thinking.

Knock!

At this moment, a knocking sound rang out, and Yun Lingwei entered the room. "We're about to reach the Southern Continent, but there's something interesting below. Do you want to take a look?"

"Sure." Yun Lintian was curious and walked out of the room with Yun Lingwei.

Walking to the deck, Yun Lintian discovered the skyship was floating still on the spot without moving forward.

"Look, there's something wrong with that ship." Yun Lingwei pointed at a tiny dot floating on the Endless Sea below.

Yun Lintian glanced down and used his profound energy to enhance his vision. Soon, he saw a shabby wooden ship that looked as though it hadn't been maintained for decades.

What was interesting was the ship crews seemed lifeless. They were walking back and forth like robots that had been programmed. Furthermore, their strength wasn't low at all. With a glance, Yun Lintian could tell the weakest among them was at the middle level of the Saint Profound Realm, and the strongest one was actually at the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm.

"It's like they are under mind control techniques." On the side, Mu Qiuxue said.

Yun Lintian shifted his gaze from them and looked at another iron ship sailing ahead of the bizarre wooden ship. From its movement, the iron ship was obviously running away from the wooden ship at full speed.

"Gold Coin Trading Group?" Yun Lingwei muttered as she read the name on the iron ship's flag.

"It's a relatively well-known trading group on the Central Continent." Mu Qiuxue said in surprise.

"Oh? You know them?" Yun Lintian asked.

​ Mu Qiuxue nodded. "Although they are not considered a large trading group, they aren't small either. They are famous for their reasonable price and good quality. I don't know their background, but I once heard that the group was established by a top powerhouse. No one dares to provoke them."

Yun Lintian touched his chin and looked at the wooden ship drawing closer to the iron ship. "Should we be busybodies?"

"It's up to you." Mu Qiuxue thought for a moment and said. "They have a good connection. Judging from their direction, they are clearly heading to the Southern Continent. Perhaps you can earn something from them."

Yun Lintian turned to look at Yun Ruanyu and asked. "What do you think?"

Yun Ruanyu replied. "It's okay to help them. We can exchange information with them. The problem is, what's wrong with the wooden ship?"

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and asked Mu Qiuxue. "You're a well-known figure. Do you think they can recognize you?"

"Likely." Mu Qiuxue replied uncertainly.

"Then, we go together." Yun Lintian said and jumped out of the skyship, flying toward the iron ship, followed by Mu Qiuxue.

"Hurry up! Don't save the Profound Stones!" On the iron ship, a middle-aged man in his forties shouted loudly at the crews while anxiously looking at the incoming wooden ship.

The crews didn't hesitate to use the high-grade Profound Stones and released their profound energy, trying to push the ship forward as fast as they could.

"We can fight." A short-haired young woman looked at the wooden ship solemnly. Her face could be described as pretty. Her body exuded a noble aura. Evidently, she was born with a powerful background.

"Young Miss, you should take a small boat and leave. We cannot fight them." The middle-aged man said anxiously.

"How could I leave all of you behind? Stop talking and prepare to fight. This is the only way." The young woman said coldly. A long iron bow appeared in her hand as she aimed at the wooden ship and loosed the arrow.

The arrow cut through the wind, transforming into a sharp ice beam, and went straight toward the wooden ship.

Bang!

The ice beam fiercely pierced into the wooden ship's bow, creating a large hole. However, the wooden ship didn't seem to slow down at all. Its speed was even faster than before.

Wooooo!

A loud horn reverberated throughout the area, and the lifeless crews on the wooden ship suddenly flew out and jumped onto the iron ship.

"Fight!" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and took his long sword out before rushing toward a man not far away from him.

As if he noticed the middle-aged man's presence, the man abruptly turned his head, producing a terrifying cracking sound that made everyone's hair stand up.

His eyes were vacant, as though he didn't have a soul. When he saw the middle-aged man rushing toward him, he suddenly raised his thin arms up, and a bizarre black profound energy immediately shot out from both hands toward the target.
