Myth Beyond Heaven

It wasn’t before long, a young woman clad in a black robe rushed out of the forest toward Yun Lintian. Her face was full of anxiety, and she kept glancing backward from time to time.

Yun Lintian saw this, his intuition told him something was not right, and he quickly opened his Eyes of Heaven. Instantaneously, the young woman in the distance appeared to be a giant black snake as its vicious eyes stared at him as though it wanted to eat him alive. Within its body, a dense Abyssal Energy was circulating throughout every corner of it. Without a doubt, this woman was a profound beast.

Yun Lintian’s brows creased together. He didn’t understand how could this profound beast transform into a human form. From the profound energy within its body, Yun Lintian discovered it was only the peak Essence Profound Beast. This must be some sort of illusion technique.

The black-robbed woman ran toward Yun Lintian with all her might while shouting. ”Big brother, help me!”

Behind her, there was a huge crimson bear followed her. From its look, it was furious to the extreme as it smashed everything on its path.

When the black-robbed woman was about to reach Yun Lintian, her eyes suddenly turned hideous while her long tongue stuck out, preparing to attack Yun Lintian.

However, before she could do anything. A virtual silver dragon abruptly appeared out of nowhere and went straight at her.

Roar!

A mighty dragon roar reverberated throughout the entire forest as the virtual silver dragon hit on the black-robbed woman’s chest, sending her away like a broken kite.

”Ugh!” The black-robbed woman spitted out blood, and her lower body had completely changed into a black snake.

It stared at Yun Lintian in fear and hurriedly turned around, attempting to escape.

The crimson bear was startled by the dragon’s roar earlier. When it came back to its sense, it also turned around and fled with all its might.

Seeing the black snake was about to escape, Yun Lintian executed Shadow Step to follow it and sent another Dragon Fist at it.

”You… damn… human!” The black snake uttered hoarsely while fending off Yun Lintian’s dragon fist.

”How can you blame me since you came to me first?” Yun Lintian spoke nonchalantly and managed to punch at the black snake’s head, inflicting a large wound on it. Yun Lintian didn’t give it a chance to put up a defense. He immediately launched a series of punches and kicks until the black snake was lying on the ground powerlessly.

”S-spare me!” The black snake could feel its vitality was decreasing rapidly and didn’t hesitate to beg for mercy. It didn’t expect this first level of Essence Profound Realm’s human could be this powerful.

Bang!

Yun Lintian stomped on the black snake’s head and asked. ”How can you transform into a human form?”

At first, Yun Lintian thought it was an illusion technique, but when he drew closer to the black snake, he found out it wasn’t the case. This black snake could actually transform! How was this possible?

”Young hero, please spare me.” The black snake cried out.

Yun Lintian exerted his strength further. ”Answer my question!”

The black snake knew it could not pretend to be a fool further. It hesitated for a second before answering truthfully. ”I… I use the Abyssal Energy to form my core.”

Yun Lintian’s brows raised. ”Abyssal Energy? Forming the core?”

He remembered when the Profound Beast reached the Origin Profound Realm, it could form the Profound Beast Core, and if the core was advanced further, it could completely transform into a human form. But using Abyssal Energy? This was the first time he heard about it.

The black snake quickly explained. ”Similar to humans using profound energy. We, profound beast, can use Abyssal Energy to advance.”

Normally, Profound Beasts would use profound energy and nutrition to practice. It was similar to a human’s way of practice. The difference between them was that Profound Beast tends to focus on body and bloodline while humans mainly focus on essence and soul.

Yun Lintian recalled the Abyssal Energy Record and did not find this information on it. However, when he thought about it again, he found it was made sense since Abyssal Energy seemed to originate from the Profound Beast. It was just that there wasn’t the Abyssal Energy in the Azure World before until four thousand years ago.

”Where did you find Abyssal Energy?” Yun Lintian asked.

The black snake didn’t dare to lie, as it replied honestly. ”I don’t know where it comes from. When I woke up, it was already on my body. Later, I rely on eating other profound beasts to advance.”

Just as Yun Lintian was digesting the information, the black snake’s eyes turned sharp and quickly spitted out Abyssal Energy smoke at Yun Lintian.

Although Yun Lintian was thinking, he didn’t let his guard down in the slightest. He immediately crushed the black snake’s head into pieces before backflipping, retreating from the spot to avoid the Abyssal Energy smoke.

Yun Lintian waved his hand, sending a bucket of Profound Spirit Liquid at the Abyssal Energy smoke before collecting them back.

He went to the black snake’s remains and found a small black bead lying beside it. For his safety, Yun Lintian poured a small amount of Profound Spirit Liquid on it before picking it up.

Yun Lintian studied the black bead carefully and found it was contained a large amount of Abyssal Energy within it.

”There is such a profound beast core?” Yun Lintian spun the black bead on his hand while thinking. He seemed to discover the grand conspiracy of the Poison Valley. The reason they wanted to nurture the Abyssal Energy pond was to cultivate more profound beasts!

”But how did they awake the Abyssal Energy within these profound beasts in the first place?” Yun Lintian mumbled to himself. He felt this was the key to this whole conspiracy. What kind of existence could give every profound beast here Abyssal Energy at the same time?
