Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 867 Entering The Heart Of The City

Hei Lei reacted timely and launched another attack on the recovering city guard. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not finish it.

Since it couldn’t be killed, Hei Lei simply blasted it to smithereens and rushed into the inner area without looking back.

Surprisingly, the city guard didn’t follow him after returning to its original state. If Yun Lintian saw this scene, he would probably vomit blood in anger. This was obviously a double standard.

“How could this place be well preserved?” While Hei Lei was rushing to the inner area, Yun Lintian stood in front of a vast area with preserved buildings. This place didn’t seem to be affected by the disaster at all.

Yun Lintian carefully spread his Spiritual Sense out and didn’t find any sign of life here. Evidently, there was not a single living dead in this place.

Without thinking further, he slowly entered the area through a stone gate. The moment Yun Lintian walked through the gate, he felt as though he had just bumped into an invisible wall, but it quickly allowed him to pass through.

Out of curiosity, Yun Lintian turned around and tried to walk out. This time, the invisible wall had become thick, preventing him from going out.

“Ugh…” Yun Lintian was speechless. There was no retreat route for him now.

Yun Lintian turned around and looked at the ancient street in front of him. With a glance, he could see the buildings on both sides were meticulously built with precious materials and protected by powerful ancient formations.

Since Yun Lintian didn’t know where to start, he calmed his mind down and concentrated on The Storm. Soon, he slowly followed the faint connection in his heart, going straight to the inner area.

Along the way, Yun Lintian didn’t forget to scan the surrounding from time to time in case there was a trap waiting for him.

“Big Brother Yun, I can feel a powerful aura coming from this way.” Linlin pointed her tiny paw in the northern direction. “There should be a powerful artifact over there.”

Yun Lintian glanced in the direction Linlin pointed at and fell into contemplation. He recalled the map in his mind and found out the Skymist Ancient Clan manor was located farther north. The exact direction that Linlin pointed at.

“Well. Let’s find The Storm first.” Yun Lintian made a decision and increased his pace toward The Storm.𝑅ead latest ch𝒂pters at n𝒐velbi𝒏(.)co/m

Swoosh!

As Yun Lintian traversed, a terrifying gust of wind suddenly blew out from all directions, causing Yun Lintian to instinctively conjure a profound barrier around him.

Boom!

Yun Lintian was sent flying to the building on his right side and slammed heavily on the wall before he could manage to stabilize himself.

As Yun Lintian was about to exert his strength, the wind suddenly vanished as if nothing had happened.

“What the hell?” Yun Lintian was puzzled. It was like this wind teasing him.

“It’s really possessing a consciousness.” Hongyue’s voice resounded in his mind. “The Storm’s spirit is clearly testing you just like a baby curious about a new toy.”

Yun Lintian’s face twitched slightly. He swore in his heart that he would teach it a lesson later.

Yun Lintian patted the dust out of his robe and was about to leave the building. He suddenly caught a glimpse of something inside the hall. It was a fist-sized blood-red jade lying peacefully on a long counter.

Yun Lintian looked around the place and saw that this place used to be a treasure house. This blood-red jade might be a precious material that was left behind.

He was curious about what was so special about this jade to be survived for thousands of years.

“Hongyue?” Yun Lintian didn’t approach it rashly but asked Hongyue instead.

“That should be a blood gem. Normally, it forms by a huge amount of blood gathering together for thousands of years. This is good stuff.” Hongyue explained casually.

“Blood Gem?” Yun Lintian searched the information in his head but didn’t find anything about it. Without thinking further, he walked to the counter, observing the gem carefully before reaching out to touch it.

Upon his finger touching the gem, a bright crimson radiance abruptly shone, illuminating the entire hall.

At the same time, a transparent silhouette gradually appeared behind the counter. It was a young woman in her twenties, giving a friendly vibe.

Upon she saw Yun Lintian, she quickly asked. “What year is it?”

Yun Lintian recovered from the initial surprise and replied. “Year 10200. Azure Calendar.”

“It’s been more than four thousand years now, huh?” The woman muttered to herself. “I’m sorry. I should have introduced myself first. My name is Cai Jingjing, and this place is my property, Cai Treasury Hall. Before I died, I put the last trace of my soul into this blood gem. I didn’t expect that several years have passed already.”

Yun Lintian didn’t say anything and calmly listened to her.

“May I know what’s the situation outside? Has the Skymist Emperor successfully gotten rid of the enemy?” Cai Jingjing asked.

Yun Lintian didn’t feel any malice from her. He thought for a moment and answered. “Everyone in this city has perished at that time, including the Skymist Emperor.”

Cai Jingjing was shocked. “H-how could it be possible? His Majesty is the strongest person in this world. How could he lose to the enemy?”

Yun Lintian could see that Cai Jingjing thought the city was attacked by a powerful enemy. She was completely unaware of what actually happened.

Yun Lintian didn’t mind telling her. “The city wasn’t attacked by an enemy but rather encountered a disaster. There was a powerful windstorm sweeping the entire city. Since then, no one could enter this city. Of course, I believe I am the first person who managed to come here.”

Cai Jingjing was lost for a word. It was no wonder that no one had ever touched the blood gem after so many years.

She went silent for a long while and let out a sigh. “I see. My family is probably gone as well.”

Yun Lintian didn’t know what to say after hearing this.

Cai Jingjing raised her head to look at Yun Lintian and said. “I am nothing but a mere residual soul that will dissipate in a while, and I don’t have any last wish. Since fate arranges you to be here, it’s better to give you all my treasures… Follow me to the place.”
