Myth Beyond Heaven

“This profound ark is equipped with twenty grand cannons. As long as sufficient energy is provided, it can handle any profound ark in the Southern Expanse without difficulty.” Dongfang Hao explained further.

“In truth, the celestial-class profound ark before you is far more capable than the president has stated. It easily ranks among the top across the entire Primal Chaos. Perhaps he was overly cautious in his introduction.” Dongfang Xue added, feeling the need to inform Yun Lintian of this important detail.

Yun Lintian listened with awe. “Are you certain you want to entrust this profound ark to us?”

He had initially expected a profound ark capable of swift travel across the Southern Expanse, but the one presented before him was essentially a mobile fortress.

“Of course. This is a small price to pay for my daughter’s life,” Dongfang Hao stated.

Dongfang Xue was deeply touched. Given the nature of powerful families, she did not expect such a display of affection from her father.

“Then I will not refuse your generosity,” Yun Lintian responded calmly, though he remained skeptical of Dongfang Hao’s true motives. He had already witnessed Dongfang’ Hao’s ruthless nature, and family loyalty seemed absent in his actions.

“Shall we explore the interior?” Dongfang Hao suggested, guiding everyone aboard the profound ark.

“The latest updated star map of the Great Expanse is installed here,” Dongfang Hao announced, gesturing as a holographic map materialized in the air.

Yun Lintian reached out and tapped the map, zooming in on the Nine Heavens Realm. A detailed map materialized, revealing a familiar blue star: Earth. According to Lan Qinghe, the time flow differed between Earth and the Divine Realm, suggesting it had likely only been a year or so since his “death.”

The prospect of reuniting with Yang Ningchang and Lynn filled him with anticipation. He wondered how they were doing.

Zhu Ding and past adversaries no longer held any significance to him. In his current power, they were insignificant, and any potential revenge would be effortlessly swift.

Yun Lintian scanned the map further, noticing the God Tomb situated near the central region.

“You can take your time studying the map later,” Dongfang Hao offered gently, leading them towards the living quarters.

The interior of the profound ark could be summed up in one word: extravagant. Despite his own lavish spending habits, even Yun Lintian was humbled by the luxuriousness within. The profound ark truly lived up to the immense resources poured into its creation.

Following Dongfang Hao’s guidance, Yun Lintian and his companions gained a thorough understanding of the ark’s vital functions, allowing them to operate it with ease.

“Thank you,” Yun Lintian felt compelled to express his gratitude. The value of the profound ark far outweighed his contributions.

Dongfang Hao gave a faint smile. “I recommend keeping the profound ark hidden from public view, especially in transport hub zones. It will attract unwanted attention.”

“Understood,” Yun Lintian agreed with a nod.

As they emerged from the profound ark, Yun Lintian raised his hand and stored it away. .

Dongfang Hao noticed Yun Lintian’s hand gesture and commented, “A top-level interspatial ring? Quite a rare sight these days.”

Intrigued, Yun Lintian inquired, “Is it truly that uncommon?”

“Indeed,” Dongfang Hao explained. “Creating an ordinary interspatial ring poses no problems. However, high-quality ones require a significant quantity of the best-grade interspatial crystals, which are scarce in the Great Expanse.”

“Considering your ring’s appearance, it must have been recently crafted. I’m surprised someone could gather such a large amount of interspatial crystals in this era.”

Dongfang Xue chimed in to clarify, “For perspective, a single crystal can fetch an astronomical price of a hundred billion best-grade divine stones. It takes more than a thousand just to build the ring, and that’s a minimum requirement.”

This revelation caused Yun Lintian and his companions considerable shock.

Zhang Yu glanced at Yun Lintian and commented, “You’ve been carrying a fortune with you all this time, apparently.”

Yun Lintian offered a wry smile. “Who knew, right?”

He was aware of the ring’s special value, but he hadn’t anticipated its true worth being this astronomical. Thankfully, in the Divine Realm, its true value remained concealed.

“While uncommon for ordinary practitioners, to powerful figures, it’s merely an expensive tool. No need to worry excessively,” Dongfang Hao reassured.

Yun Lintian nodded. “How far is the transport hub?”

“Follow me,” Dongfang Hao instructed, taking flight. Yun Lintian and his companions swiftly followed.

“This is a minor hub,” Dongfang Xue explained. “It connects to the main hub in the Southern Expanse, offering routes to the Nine Heavens Realm. With the celestial-rank profound ark, you should reach your destination in just a few days.”

“Be wary of pirates. They are often lurking around transport hubs to look for prey,” she cautioned.

“Understood,” Yun Lintian acknowledged.

They soon arrived at an open space dotted with ancient-

looking stone gates, evidently teleportation formations.

An elderly man clad in black, surprised to see Dongfang Hao, approached them. “President Dongfang?”

Dongfang Hao landed and explained, “I’m here to see off my esteemed guests.”

The man scrutinized Yun Lintian’s group, pondering their background. It was the first time he had witnessed Dongfang Hao personally sending someone off. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚

“Gate number three is prepared. You may use it at your convenience,” the man informed him, choosing not to delve further.

Turning to Yun Lintian, Dongfang Hao said, “This is as far as I can accompany you. I wish you the best of luck.”

“Thank you very much. Farewell,” Yun Lintian replied, cupping his fists. He then proceeded towards gate number three with Long Qingxuan and the others.

Dongfang Hao watched them disappear into the gate before nodding to the old man and taking to the skies once more.

“Did you punish Fu Yong, Father?” Dongfang Xue inquired as she flew beside him.

“He failed his duty to protect you, nearly causing a catastrophe. I’ve reassigned him and will find you a new butler soon,” Dongfang Hao responded calmly.

“Oh,” Dongfang Xue sighed softly. Fu Yong had been her longtime companion, and she was saddened by the separation. However, she understood there was nothing she could do.

Little did she know, Fu Yong was no longer among the living…
