Myth Beyond Heaven

“Who is he?” Yun Lintian knew that Hongyue must know this so-called Myriad Star Divine Emperor.

Hongyue didn’t reply right away. She seemed to think of something for a while and said. “It seems the problem is bigger than we thought. Let’s hear him out first, and we will talk about it later.”

Yun Lintian didn’t ask anything further and continued to listen to Xing Tengfei.

Xing Tengfei looked at Yun Lintian and sighed softly. “Your strength might reach an astonishing level already, but you are too young and have all the time ahead of you. You probably have no idea how desperate people like me are to seek a higher path.”

“When I heard about the offer, I did lose my mind and couldn’t wait to say yes right away. Thankfully, I managed to maintain my rationality in the end.”

He then smiled apologetically. “Sorry, I couldn’t help saying this.”

“What happened in the end?” Yun Lintian asked.

“While I was considering the pros and cons, someone was faster than everyone. He was Qu Changsheng, whose known as the Longevity Monarch.” Xing Tengfei said with a gloomy expression.

“This old bastard secretly contacted the Myriad Star Divine Emperor and promised the latter to take the world’s core away behind our backs.”

“When the spatial tunnel opened, and people from the other worlds poured in, Qu Changsheng used this chance to destroy the seal around the world’s core with the help of the Divine King that was sent over by the Myriad Star Divine Emperor.”

“At the critical moment, Yun Wushuang used her power to stop them and pushed them back to where they came from.”

“Seeing the mission fail, Qu Changsheng used this chance to slip away with that Divine King through the spatial tunnel. It was not just him, but many people had also followed him.”

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and asked. “As far as I know, it was you who plotted against her later.”

To everyone’s surprise, Xing Tengfei admitted honestly. “That’s right. I had indeed forced her to leave this world.”

A cold glint flashed through Yun Lintian’s eyes as he stared straight at the old man in front of him.

“At that time, Yun Wushuang’s strength could be considered the number one in the world. If I didn’t take advantage of her weakening period, I would never have this chance again.” Xing Tengfei said further.

He took a sip of tea and continued. “I think you should understand it. When you reach a certain height, you will always want to go higher. To me and everyone, including Qu Changsheng, Yun Wushuang is like a ceiling of this world. As long as she exists, everyone will feel like something is pressing on their head all the time. ”

He smiled at Yun Lintian and said. “I believe you know it well. This feeling.”

Yun Lintian didn’t say anything. He understood what Xing Tengfei tried to say, but Xing Tengfei did commit an unforgivable crime against Yun Wushuang and Lin Xinyao.

Facing Yun Lintian’s cold gaze, Xing Tengfei didn’t feel anything. He continued. “I welcome you anytime if you want to avenge her or settle our grievance.”

Yun Lintian took a deep look at the old man for a while and gradually calmed down. “Why don’t you leave this world since you can open the spatial tunnel anytime?”

“As you have already guessed. I don’t dare.” Xing Tengfei replied calmly. “The word Divine Realm is very tempting, but it also scares me since going there means a new beginning. I will have to climb from the lowest point again.”

“I had come into contact with those people from the Divine Realm last time. Do you know what they called us?” Xing Tengfei suddenly asked.

Without waiting for Yun Lintian to reply, he said further. “They called us a maggot from the lower realm.”

Yun Lintian’s brows raised slightly upon hearing this.

Xing Tengfei laughed and said. “Well, they are not wrong. We are indeed maggots compared to them.” .𝒄𝒐𝒎

He paused briefly and continued. “As for controlling the spatial tunnel, you have misunderstood it. No one can control it.”

“What do you mean?” Yun Lintian frowned.

“The spatial tunnel has existed since ancient times and will open every four thousand years. All we could do is seal the surrounding area.” Xing Tengfei explained.

“What about the world’s core?” Yun Lintian asked.

Xing Tengfei shook his head. “I have no idea about it. That place is protected by an extremely powerful seal. Unless you’re a Divine King, it is impossible to break it. The only thing we could do about it is to divert the direction of the energy flow that emits from it.”

“However, there was something strange about it.” Xing Tengfei frowned slightly as he recalled the scene in the past. “When that Divine King broke the seal back then, everything in that area slowed down to the point it was as if time had frozen.”

“Time had frozen?” Yun Lintian was surprised.

“Could it be the core has the power of time?” He said in his mind. “If that’s the case, then everything about the looping event can be explained.”

At this moment, Yun Lintian immediately thought of Empress Yun’s words. There was a high chance the spatial tunnels and the world’s core were somehow connected to each other.

“Very likely,” Hongyue said. “The power of time is the most precious and mysterious thing in the universe. It’s normal for those people behind the Myriad Star Divine Emperor to covet it.”

“People behind him? What do you mean?” Yun Lintian was curious.

“In short, this Myriad Star Divine Emperor is nothing but an errand boy for a group of God Emperors behind him. I will explain about it later. Now, you should check the world’s core out.” Hongyue replied.

Yun Lintian was surprised to hear this. He didn’t ask about it further and looked at Xing Tengfei. “I want to check the world’s core out.”

“No problem. I have already expected this.” Xing Tengfei nodded slightly and waved his hand. A small black token appeared on the table as he said. “This is my token. You take it there, and those people won’t bother you.”

Yun Lintian glanced at the token slightly and put it away before saying. “I will settle the grievance between us later.”

Afterward, he stood up and walked out.

“Sure.” Xing Tengfei responded with a smile while watching Yun Lintian disappear from his sight with a meaningful gaze.
