Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 1368 Song Of Departure (2)



Qing Xiaoting nodded in agreement. “At first, I thought they couldn’t return because the spatial tunnel wasn’t open, but it didn’t seem to be the case now.”

Tianqi Junlai and the others also fell into deep thoughts. 

Yun Lintian took a sip of wine and said. “It’s normal. The Divine Realm is extremely vast. There are billions of billions of stars. I don’t think it’s easy to come back.”

“He’s right.” Tao Kang said while sipping wine. “All of you here have no idea what kind of the Divine Realm looks like. I can only say that it will take several decades just to travel between the two realms.”

Lei Yongzheng and the others were stunned upon hearing this.

“Several decades? That long?” Jin Yang said in doubt.

Tao Kang shook his head. “I have no reason to lie. Unless you go through a formation or have your own profound ship, it will take forever to go to the other realms. That’s why I believe those people probably struggle somewhere or already perish… Well, I think it’s the latter.”

Jin Yang took a deep breath to calm down. His mind was full of an image of a vast starry sky. His existence was probably no different from a speck of dust in it.

“And this is just one aspect.” Tao Kang took another sip of wine and said further. “I didn’t mention the dangers they are going to face.”

He looked at everyone and asked. “Do you know how people over there treat an ascender from a lower realm?”

Without waiting for anyone to reply, Tao Kang continued. “In the Divine Realm, there are two types of people. One is a native, and another one is an ascender from the lower realm.”

“Once those so-called natives know you’re an ascender, they will automatically treat you like garbage. If you’re lucky, they will just kill you, and if you are unlucky, they will enslave you.”

Tao Kang’s expression wasn’t good, as if he recalled something he didn’t want to remember. He said solemnly. “You have no idea how many times I have seen such a scene… Trust me. You’d rather die than become their slaves.”

As a disciple of the Blissful Mountain, Tao Kang had seen a lot of things around the world. 

Every year, millions of ascenders would appear in the Divine Realm, and those lucky ones with some potential would be recruited into various factions. As for the unlucky ones, they would either end up becoming a slave or losing their lives for no reason.

Everyone in the room glanced at each other with an unsightly expression. They could already imagine what kind of scene Tao Kang had seen.

Tao Kang drank a few mouthfuls of wine to calm himself down and explained further. “Moreover, the gaps between natives and ascenders are like heaven and hell. They have lived in a good environment since birth. Even if they have a bit of talent, they will still be better than most ascenders from the lower realm.”

“There was this one man from the lower realm. Except for Yun Lintian, I can safely say his talent is several times better than any of you here. Even so, he was considered barely passable in those people’s eyes. And he ended up dead because he didn’t want to lower his head.”

“Therefore, I don’t think those old fogeys you are talking about have a chance of surviving.”

Deadly silence immediately blanketed the room. Everyone could clearly hear each other’s heavy breathing. Perhaps, they couldn’t even be considered an ant in those people’s eyes.

“No wonder Xing Tengfei and Du Shoushan were so adamant about finding a backer.” Qing Xiaoting finally understood everything.

Tao Kang nodded. “They surely had already seen something.”

He raised his head to look at Yun Lintian and said. “That’s why Yun Lintian’s decision is correct. If there’s anyone with the highest chance of surviving in the Divine Realm, it must be him… I don’t want to discourage all of you here, but I suggest you better stay here for the rest of your life if he can’t return.”

Lei Yongzheng and the others went completely silent. They didn’t know what to say at this moment. The flames of hope in their hearts were extinguished directly by Tao Kang’s words.

“Why don’t you stay here?” Shen Liqiu couldn’t help asking. “I know you are ambitious, but…”

Yun Lintian looked at her and saw her eyes full of worries. This made his heart warm.

He shook his head and said. “It’s not about my ambition, but rather a mission. I have a goal to accomplish. Once I failed, it meant I had to die. So, I have no choice here.”

Shen Liqiu opened her mouth but was stopped by Han Bingling’s gaze.

Han Bingling turned to Yun Lintian and said. “We know that we can’t stop you from leaving, but at least you should make sure that you can protect yourself first.”

Meanwhile, Yun Qianxue, Lin Xinyao, and Mu Qiuxue calmly looked at Yun Lintian. Although they were concerned about his safety, they fully trusted him. They believed he would be safe and sound no matter what circumstance he faced.

“That’s right. Why don’t you stay here longer, Big Brother Yun?” Yu Jiao’er echoed. 

Yun Lintian put the cup down and said to everyone. “Thank you for your concern. I truly appreciate it. However, I have already made up my mind. I won’t change it.”

Since Yun Lintian had already said this, everyone finally stopped persuading him.

Seeing the atmosphere wasn’t good, Yun Lintian changed the topic. “Are you going to send your juniors to participate in the upcoming convention?”

Bi Xian smiled and said. “Our Heavenly Fox Clan won’t miss this chance. Why don’t you give us a spoiler about the rewards?”

Yun Lintian smiled mysteriously. “I can’t. You can wait for the announcement later.”

“Stingy.” Bi Xian curled her lips.

The atmosphere gradually livened up, and everyone continued to eat and talk…

“What are you thinking?” Sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, Lin Xinyao looked at Yun Lintian and asked.

Yun Lintian shook his head and pulled Lin Xinyao into his embrace. “I don’t want to leave you.”

The two of them had just gone through a calamity and finally had a chance to be together. They naturally didn’t want to separate from each other.

Lin Xinyao leaned against his chest and asked softly. “Do you remember the mission in the middle-east country?”
