Myth Beyond Heaven

"It's a dead-end?" Hua Litong and the rest quickly arrived at the spacious hall with three doors and found they could not open it.

"Where are you going?" Huo Ao and his subordinates stepped into the hall, and when they saw Hua Litong's group desperately tried to open the door, they couldn't help but laugh out loud. It seemed the Goddess of Luck was on their side. ​​

Hua Litong gritted her teeth and said to others, "Look like we have to go all out now."

"Even if I have to die, I'll drag all of them down together." Yun Jing stepped to the front and prepared to activate The Final Haze. This time she couldn't avoid using it anymore.

Huo Ao smiled wickedly and took out a crimson-colored sword with an exquisite design from his interspatial ring. He was going to end this battle as soon as possible, in case Hua Litong's group escaped once again.

"Go!" Huo Ao ordered his subordinates to attack Hua Litong's group while he ignited a powerful flame on his sword.

Hua Litong threw several Energy Replenish Pills into her mouth and violently chewed them. Her profound energy surged, releasing another petal storm around her body.

Creak!

When Hua Litong and the rest were about to engage in a battle, the iron door in the middle suddenly opened. Her eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope as she hastily led everyone passing through the door, arriving at another spacious hall with the crimson throne in the center.

"Damn it!" Huo Ao cursed out loud when he saw this scene. Why did the door have to open at this moment?

He didn't think much about it and quickly chased after Hua Litong's group.

Meanwhile, Ji Cheng's group just arrived at the place and saw this scene. They didn't hurry to follow Huo Ao in as Ji Cheng felt something was not right.

"Why did the door open by itself?" Ji Cheng was in doubt.

Qi Tian'er looked at the sun symbol on the other two iron doors and vaguely guessed, "Look at this symbol. Perhaps, this place is the real core of the Blazing Sun Mythical Realm."

Ji Cheng stared at the sun symbol for a while and tried to inject his profound energy into it, but nothing happened.

"Should we follow them?" Qi Tian'er said. Honestly, she wanted to follow Huo Ao in as soon as possible. She didn't want to lose an opportunity to get a treasure if there was one over there.

Ji Cheng appeared hesitant as his instinct told him there was something dangerous in that room, but he still followed in under Qi Tian'er's urge.

The moment Hua Litong and the rest stepped into the vast hall, the first thing that came to their sight was a handsome youth sitting on the crimson throne along with an illusory figure and a strange red rat on his side.

"Junior Brother Yun!" Yun Jing immediately recognized Yun Lintian at first glance and became ecstatic instantly.

"Senior Sister Jing." Yun Lintian nodded and turned to Hua's sisters and Yang Mengli. "Sister Hua, Sister Yang, we meet again… You too, Fairy Hua Wanru. Please all of you, come to my side."

Hua Litong and Yang Mengli were confused and curious about how did Yun Lintian appear here, but they didn't have much time to care about this matter as Huo Ao and his subordinates had arrived in this place. They immediately moved toward Yun Lintian.

"Oh? Isn't that Young Master Yun? How come you are here?" Huo Ao lowered his flame sword and looked at Yun Lintian with a frown. He suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart upon seeing the sun orb in Yun Lintian's hand.

"This is our second time seeing each other. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Huo Ao from Sacred Flame Sect." Huo Ao tried to distract Yun Lintian's attention and prepared to escape from this place.

However, Yun Lintian already saw through his thoughts, but he didn't intend to make his move because he still waited for Ji Cheng to come in. He smiled faintly while playing with the sun orb in his hand. "I'm glad to see you again, Young Master Huo… I think you should know my name already. I'll skip this part then."

When Yun Lintian finished his sentence, he saw Ji Cheng's group appeared at the entrance, and this made the smile on his lips grew wider.

At the same time, Ji Cheng and Qi Tian'er saw Yun Lintian calmly sitting on the crimson throne. Their expressions turned bad instantly, and Ji Cheng tried to flee right away. He didn't even care about his fiance, Qi Tian'er at this moment.

But how could Yun Lintian let him go? He quickly used his mind to close the iron door, blocking the retreat path directly.

Bang!

The iron door shut loudly in front of Ji Cheng, causing his expression to change drastically. He knew this time he was screwed. His guess was right, it was obvious that Yun Lintian was the one who lured everyone to this place.

Ji Cheng turned around and stared at Yun Lintian while ignoring Qi Tian'er icy gaze. His false gentleman appearance was already shattered since the moment he chose to flee by himself earlier. He didn't need to pretend anymore.

"I'll report Royal Father about this." Qi Tian'er spoke coldly.

Ji Cheng glanced at her and sneered, "Report? Do you think you can go back alive? Why don't you use your stupid brain to think about the current situation first?" He pointed at Yun Lintian and said further, "Don't you see? He is obviously can control this place at will. Since he is so confident leading all of us here, do you think he doesn't have a way to deal with us?"

Qi Tian'er was startled for a moment and came into a realization. She turned to Yun Lintian and said coldly, "I am the Second Princess of the Qi Royal clan. I command you to open the door. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape my father's wrath when you return to the outside."

"Idiot." Ji Cheng sneered and didn't bother to look at Qi Tian'er again. He shifted his gaze to Yun Lintian while his mind spun rapidly, trying to think how to get out of this situation.

Yun Lintian shook his head slightly and wondered how could this princess be this stupid. She was clearly the typical fodder character that no one would remember. He replied, "I'm afraid I can't comply with your command, Your Highness. Do you know that your royal father is backing the Sacred Flame Sect and the Profound Sword Sect to attack my sect? Don't you think your statement just now is ridiculous?"

Qi Tian'er was stunned for a second. She now understood why Yun Lintian didn't plan to let her go. She was unable to say a word. Although she was the princess, she couldn't access some information as she please. This was the first time she heard about this. She never knew before that her father currently had a conflict with the Misty Cloud Sect.

"What do you want to do?" Huo Ao, who was standing on the side, had realized how bad the situation he was in, but he still pretended to be calm and collect.

Yun Lintian looked at him and said plainly, "It's simple. I am going to kill every single one of you."

Huo Ao, Ji Cheng, Qi Tian'er, and the rest felt a chill running down their spines upon hearing this seemingly plain sentence. They stared at Yun Lintian as if they wanted to eat him alive.

Ji Cheng quickly scanned through the place. Except for the lifelike-fire patterns on the wall, he didn't find anything unusual. He could not make a guess on a method that Yun Lintian was going to use. Thus, he simply drew his sword out, preparing to engage at any moment.

"Hahaha! What a big tone! I want to see how are you going to kill me." Huo Ao laughed wildly. His face turned hideous while gripping the flame sword in his hand tightly.

Meanwhile, Hua's sisters, Yang Mengli, Yun Jing, and the other two senior sisters became excited instantly. Although they didn't know Yun Lintian's method, from his confident appearance, they believed he could definitely kill all of them.

"Fine. Be careful." Yun Lintian gave them a pretentious warning and spun the sun orb in his hand slightly.

Instantaneously, the fire patterns on the surroundings wall shone brightly and everyone except for Yun Lintian's group could feel the temperature in the hall had skyrocketed.

"Go to hell!" Huo Ao charged at Yun Lintian at lightning speed and leaped into the air, slashing his flame sword at Yun Lintian's head.

Unfortunately, before he could reach the target, an invisible barrier suddenly appeared before Huo Ao and threw him away several meters.

"Argh! Help me!" Huo Ao landed on the floor without harm, and suddenly heard a desperate cry from one of his subordinates, making him turn to look at that person.

The scene in front of him made his entire being turned cold instantly. The person who cried out earlier now became a human torch. A raging fire was covered his body and burned him into ashes in a split second. It was not only him. Except for Huo Ao, Ji Cheng, and Qi Tian'er, everyone had turned into human torches as well.

"No! Spare me!" One of Ji Cheng's subordinates wailed in horror as his body slowly turning into ashes a moment later. Soon, all of Ji Cheng's and Huo Ao's subordinates had turned into ashes as well.

Ji Cheng gritted his teeth unwillingly and constantly poured his profound energy into strengthening his protective barrier around him. His bloodshot eyes stared at Yun Lintian with a deep hatred. He never ever thought about this situation before in his life — a proud young master of the Profound Sword Sect that often looked down upon the world was going to die so easily like this.

"Ji Cheng… Help me!" Qi Tian'er was at her limit. Her luxury robe started to burn bit by bit, revealing her white snow skins that were gradually covered by a raging fire. She looked at her fiance, pleading for his help.

Ji Cheng didn't even take a glance at her. His eyes were still fixated on Yun Lintian.

"Ahhhhh!" Qi Tian'er let out a shrill scream when the fire completely engulfed her body. A second later, she had wholly disappeared from the world, leaving a pile of ashes on the ground.

"Arghhh! I'll kill you!" Huo Ao roared unwillingly and threw his flame sword at Yun Lintian. Unfortunately, his attempt was completely useless. The sword was simply reflected away by the invisible barrier.

As a young master of the Sacred Flame Sect, his affinity with the fire element was naturally high. He could endure the fire longer than anybody. However, how could the fire made by Blazing Sun Monarch possibly be ordinary? Within ten seconds later, Huo Ao had also turned into ashes, leaving this world forever.

Yun Lintian looked at Ji Cheng with surprise. Without a doubt, among them, Ji Cheng was strongest, but he didn't expect him to last this long.

"You… will… die… soon." Ji Cheng uttered word by word with difficulty.

"I don't know if I will die that soon as you said, but you are going to die for sure in a mere second later." Yun Lintian replied expressionlessly. Ji Cheng's attempt to disturb his mind was nothing but a childish play in his eyes.

Ji Cheng was disappointed upon seeing his plan failed. He closed his eyes as his body slowly turned into ashes in the next second.
