Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 257 -Intensive Abyssal Energy

Yun Lintian had occasionally activated Eyes of Heaven to check for an abnormality, but he still couldn’t find anything. Theoretically, more than twenty thousand people had been sent here. He should at least meet several of them by now. Unless this Fallen Dragon Forest was terribly vast.

The vicinity around here was so plain. Yun Lintian could see everything was almost exactly the same wherever he went. There was no hill nor stream. It was a flat land with ancient trees.

Yun Lintian decided to stop moving and looked in the direction again. Perhaps he chose the wrong path for all this time.

Just as he was pondering, Yun Lintian received a signal from the transmission jade on his waist. He quickly checked on it, and Chu Mi’s voice could be heard from the other side. “Brother Yun, I am with Sister Qin. Where are you right now?”

Sister Qin, in Chu Mi’s words, was referring to Qin Yuyan. Yun Lintian felt relieved for her upon hearing this. It seemed her luck was quite good to meet Qin Yuyan after coming here.

“You don’t have to worry about me. Just pay attention to your safety.” Yun Lintian returned a few words and put the transmission jade away. 

Since he didn’t know the direction, Yun Lintian found the tallest tree nearby to climb up. When he reached the top of the tree, Yun Lintian was immediately attracted by a gloomy black fog covering a large area far away from him. Without a doubt, that area should be the center of the forest.

Yun Lintian opened Eyes of Heaven and discovered this black fog was no other than Abyssal Energy. However, the concentration was on another level, denser than anything he had ever seen before.

Typically, Abyssal Energy would give Yun Lintian a slightly dangerous feeling, but now, his heart was all occupied by a heavy suppressive feeling. It was as though he could either be half-dead or die if he was hit by this black fog.

Yun Lintian believed even with the help of Profound Spirit Liquid in his hands, he wouldn’t be able to purify this intense Abyssal Energy. Even if Linlin was here, he also didn’t think she could deal with it. It was no wonder Han Bingling said this place was highly perilous.

Taking a few deep breaths, Yun Lintian made a final decision to stay away from that area. Maybe without the surveillance formation, he might try to approach that place. Unfortunately, his movement was observed by who knows how many people out there. He wasn’t stupid enough to expose his secret just because he wanted to see the mystery of this forest.

Since he could not go straight, Yun Lintian chose to go sideway instead. He threaded along the forest for a while until his step abruptly halted in the place because he suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance.

Swoosh!

Yun Lintian quickly jumped up to the tree, hiding among the leaf and observed the voice direction.

It was a group of five people besieged by two Sharp-Tooth Tigers. Even though they had more numbers than the tigers, they didn’t have any advantage over the opponents. On the contrary, they were totally suppressed by the two tigers.

Roar!

One of the Sharp-Tooth Tigers gave a loud cry before pouncing on a thin young man near it. Its speed was insanely fast. In a split second, the thin young man’s right arm was torn away by the tiger, causing him to scream in pain.

“Brother Li!” The tall young man, who seemed to be the group leader, shouted in shock and hurriedly swung his long sword at the tiger, but the latter had effortlessly avoided it. While others were also tried their best to keep a distance from the two tigers by launching a ranged attack from time to time.

“Ugh!” Under the severe pain, the thin young man immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood. The healing pill he just took was utterly useless. 

At this moment, a young girl in the group noticed the thin man’s shoulder had turned into a black spot. Abyssal Poison’s characteristic instantly popped up in her mind, and she subconsciously stepped back with a horror expression.

The thin man didn’t seem to notice his body had slowly turned black. He tried his best to circulate profound energy, but it was as though his Profound Vein had been blocked. It was at this moment did he discover the abnormality in his body.

“Ah! Help!” He shouted loudly and frantically used the remaining hand to brush the black spot on his body away. Naturally, the black spot didn’t recede and still devoured his body until it successfully rushed to the thin man’s head.

With a plop, the thin man’s head instantly exploded like a firework, causing the remaining four people to petrify on the spot.

The Sharp-Tooth Tigers didn’t let this opportunity go. They pounced at the four people in a flash and successfully bit off two people’s heads.

“Ah…” The group leader and the young girl were shocked to the point they couldn’t produce any sentences. Their bodies went stiff like a statue, and their minds went blank, unable to react.

Yun Lintian didn’t plan to help them at all. His eyes always fixated on the thin man’s corpse, which now turned utterly black. Under the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian saw Abyssal Energy act like a raging tide, sweeping the thin man’s internal organs. He had never seen such a powerful Abyssal Energy like this before. Even the Saint-rank abyssal profound beast core he obtained from Han Bingling wasn’t this violent.

The two tigers launched another attack on the group leader and the young girl in the next moment. The latter two didn’t even put up any resistance and died under the claws of the tigers. The original group of five was now reduced to five corpses.

The Sharp-Tooth Tigers didn’t seem to care about the corpses of the five people.. They both suddenly turned in Yun Lintian’s direction. With a snarl, they immediately rushed toward Yun Lintian!
