Myth Beyond Heaven

Cold sweats appeared on Bai Qingyi’s forehead as he smelled a stench accompanied by a hot breath behind him.

Roar!

Before he could turn around, a deafening roar immediately burst out, causing Bai Qingyi to almost fly away. His long delicate hair was spraying all over the place, and it was stained with the sticky saliva of the unknown creature behind him.

At this moment, Bai Qingyi felt an intense pressure bore down upon his entire being. He regained his composure and hurriedly moved away from the spot with all his might.

Boom!

The ground shook violently by the impact; dust filled all over the place. If Bai Qingyi hadn’t reacted in time, he would have become mincemeat already. He rolled on the ground several times before managing to stabilize himself. At this moment, he had time to take a glance at the owner of the attack. It turned out to be a big… No, it was a colossus black bear!

The bear had no special characteristic except for the pair of blood-red eyes and its six meters of height. Everything on its body was covered with a gloomy black aura — Abyssal Energy. If Yun Lintian saw this, he would be shocked to the extreme, as this was the first creature to emit a large portion of Abyssal Energy outside the body!

Bai Qingyi’s expression turned severe. The earlier aura from the bear displayed it was at least a Heaven Profound Beast. The only way for him was to flee as soon as possible, but the bear’s speed was even faster than him, who was enhanced by the wind talisman. Going by this rate, the chance of him escaping from its palm was close to zero.

What should I do? Bai Qingyi’s heart sank to the bottom. He didn’t understand why would a powerful profound beast appear at the perimeter area. However, it wasn’t necessary anymore. What he had to do right now was to find a way out.

”Roar!” The black bear let out an angry roar when the attack missed. It didn’t expect a weak prey in its eyes to actually avoid the strike.

The black bear’s blood-red eyes locked on Bai Qingyi. It furiously banged its chest a few times before rushing at Bai Qingyi at lightning speed and swinging its paw at him.

Bai Qingyi failed to adapt to the black bear’s speed. He could only helplessly use the fan to reflect the bear’s paw with all of his strength.

Bang!

The Ruler-rank artifact, True Jade Fan, in Bai Qingyi’s hand instantly shattered under the terrifying strike from the black bear, causing Bai Qingyi’s face to change drastically once again. He knew extremely well how sturdy his True Jade Fan was. Even Saint Profound Beast might not be able to break it. It was horribly unbelievable to see it get destroyed in one stroke.

Under the strong impact, Bai Qingyi spurted out a mouthful of fresh blood as his body flew away like a broken kite and stopped at the tree a hundred meters away. He could feel his internal organs were shaking as though they were about to break. If it wasn’t because of the Saint-rank armor underneath his robe, his life would be gone already.

Bai Qingyi knew it wasn’t the time to get distracted. He swiftly took a lightning talisman from his sleeve and threw it at the black bear.

As a Heaven Profound Beast, the black bear possessed intelligence and was aware of the talisman’s ability. It didn’t blindly crash head-on with the talisman but chose to retreat to the distance in a flash.

Zzzz…Bang!

A blue lightning bolt descended from the sky at the talisman’s position, creating a hollow on the ground, along with a cloud of dust. Bai Qingyi had anticipated the black bear’s action beforehand. He used this chance to activate a forbidden escape technique. The price he had to pay was his vitality, but he didn’t care anymore. Compared to his life, losing a portion of vitality was nothing.

Instantaneously, a light green glow appeared around Bai Qingyi, and his body gradually blurred before vanishing from the spot. This forbidden technique had nothing to do with spatial elements, but it purely relied on the wind element. Bai Qingyi was simply brought away by the gust of wind.

The black bear noticed this and let out a fury roar. It wanted to chase after Bai Qingyi, but somehow it couldn’t find a trace of him. Seeing the prey had slipped away, the black bear stomped on the ground in extreme anger, destroying all the surrounding trees.

”Ugh!” Several kilometers away from the black bear, Bai Qingyi’s figure appeared on the ground. Blood continued to leak from his mouth as his consciousness began to fade. The last scene he saw was a handsome young man shouting at him a few times, but he could not hear it properly and fainted on the spot.

”Miss! Are you alright?” The young man shouted at Bai Qingyi while trying to feed him a healing pill. However, there was no response from Bai Qingyi, and the young man could only forcefully use his profound energy to push the pill into Bai Qingyi’s throat.

After seeing Bai Qingyi’s condition had improved, the young man heaved a sigh of relief and looked for a place to let him rest.

This young man had a handsome face that was a bit inferior to Yun Lintian. He had a gentle and ethical demeanor; with a glance, one could notice he came from a noble background. His appearance was clean and neat. There wasn’t any trace of dust on his white robe. Counting the wild environment, it was difficult to believe he could maintain the cleanliness to this degree.

At this moment, the young man heard a loud roar from afar. A frown appeared on his face, and he seemed to figure out the owner of this roar was probably the one who hurt the beautiful girl in front of him… That’s right, he thought Bai Qingyi was a girl…

Judging from the strength of Bai Qingyi, the young man believed the opponent should be something that even he could not handle.. Hence, he decided to leave this place right away with Bai Qingyi.
