Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 1546 Black Tortoise Runic Shell

The blooming red lotus looked beautiful enough to intoxicate a person. Its enchanting light gently dyed the surrounding space crimson. But as gentle as it might seem, the giant lotus was capable of annihilating countless stars and skies into nothingness.

Shan Mujin’s figure could no longer be seen as everything around him had been buried by the silhouette of the gigantic fire lotus. The unimaginably terrifying heat and power caused Shan Mujin’s heart to sink, even though the stacked barrier stood between it and him.

Heaven Annihilating Red Lotus was one of the strongest moves of the Red Lotus God Emperor. There was a saying circulating in the Divine Realm that once the lotus bloomed, everything would become dust.

Among the fire-attributed practitioners around the world, Hong Hualian stood at the top alongside the Sun God Emperor. Although both of them were slightly inferior to the legendary existences in the Divine Phoenix, the Golden Crow, and the Vermilion Bird, they had already surpassed any humans in the Divine Realm’s history.

BOOM!

All of a sudden, the giant red lotus exploded into a gigantic tide of flame to engulf Shan Mujin entirely.

The heat crumbled and burned the five outermost layers of the stacked mountain barriers directly, and it didn’t stop at that. It continued to burn more and more barrier layers until it reached the final three barriers.

Shan Mujin’s expression was ashen. He injected more of his god emperor’s power into the barriers, but the sea of fire didn’t seem to incline in the slightest. On the contrary, it had become even fiercer.

Suddenly, Shan Mujin felt a sharp pain in his soul, and the barriers were shattered directly, letting the sea of fire blast onto him. 

“Urgh!” Shan Mujin groaned painfully. The pain inflicted by the crimson flames was so terrible that nearly every muscle in his body was twitching violently. His clothes made of the sturdiest silk in the Divine Realm were burned away like crazy, and his long hair also began to catch a flame.

Shan Mujin was so furious at this moment. He knew that he had to go all out now. Otherwise, he would definitely die here.

Rumble—

ραΠdαsΝοvel Suddenly, Shan Mujin’s aura rose sharply, and a black turtle shell with a strange runic pattern appeared before his chest. At the same time, a dark green light brightly lit from the shell and covered Shan Mujin’s entire body, chasing the surrounding sea of flames away.

Murong Mengyi’s expression solidified when she saw the turtle shell. “Black Tortoise Runic Shell?”

The shell in front of Shan Mujin’s chest was a legendary artifact of the Black Tortoise God Clan. Since the Black Tortoise God Clan disappeared during the incident back then, this artifact had also mysteriously vanished. 

Murong Mengyi didn’t expect it to fall into Shan Mujin’s hand.

Shan Mujin, whose half body burnt, got a chance to take a breather. He looked at Hong Hualian and Murong Mengyi with killing intent. “You shouldn’t force me.”

Boom!

The space suddenly collapsed as if countless mountains exploded altogether. A spatial storm was born and crazily swallowed the sea of flames while blasting toward Hong Hualian and Murong Mengyi.

Without a doubt, this was Shan Mujin’s true power!

One of the reasons that the God Emperors rarely used their true strength to fight each other was that it might cause a spatial storm like this to damage the Divine Realm’s wall. And once a crack appeared on the wall, a foreign enemy could use this chance to come in.

Hence, it had become an unwritten rule among the God Emperors.

The expressions of Hong Hualian and Murong Mengyi turned solemn. Both of them tacitly conjured a huge formation to suppress the spatial storm and force Shan Mujin to stop.

However, Shan Mujin had no intention of holding back in the slightest. He conjured two rock spears a little over five meters long in front of him and roared. “DIE!!”

The rock spears tore through the spatial storm and shot toward Murong Mengyi and Hong Hualian at insane speed.

“Let me.” Hong Hualian stepped forward as a giant paper fan appeared in her hand. This was her god emperor artifact, the World Illuminating Fan.

In the next moment, her aura soared through the roof, and she quickly fanned the fan forward. 

Instantly, two streaks of crimson flames appeared in the air and formed two fiery tornadoes rushing toward the incoming rock spears.

BOOOOM—

Space collapsed and collapsed again as the two great powers collided. From a distance, it looked like dozens of giant caves had been drilled through the starry sky. It was as if the distortion and destruction would never end.

Murong Mengyi came to Hong Hualian’s side and waved a blue ribbon that silently appeared in her hand forward. A beam of blue light suddenly cut through the spatial storm and formed a blueish curtain around the two women, protecting them from the destructive impact.

Two seconds later, Murong Mengyi’s expression changed drastically as she uttered. “He has escaped.”

While the space trembled crazily, Shan Mujin’s aura was nowhere to be found now. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.

Hong Hualian stared at the collapsing space in front of her with a gloomy expression. This was the best chance in countless years to kill Shan Mujin. 

Unexpectedly, Shan Mujin had the Black Tortoise Runic Shell in his hand. Even if the two attacked together, it was difficult to break its defense. It allowed Shan Mujin to escape.

The two said nothing and quickly released their powers to calm the collapsing space. It took them nearly two minutes to suppress everything and return to its original peaceful starry sky.

“I have underestimated him.” Hong Hualian said regretfully. If she knew this, she would use her full power from the beginning.

Murong Mengyi shook her head and said. “He’s one of the current strongest people after all. Not to mention we haven’t recovered our peak states.”

“What’s next?” Hong Hualian put the bad mood aside and asked.

Murong Mengyi glanced in the Mystic God Realm’s direction and said. “Oddly enough. Those who lurked in the dark didn’t come out in the end… But that’s fine as well. With that person around, Yun Lintian’s safety is pretty much guaranteed. We should go back and focus on recuperating this time.”

“It seems to be the only way.” Hong Hualian said with a soft sigh. 

The two took one last glance at the Mystic God Realm before disappearing into the void.
