Myth Beyond Heaven

"What?" Yun Lintian was stunned. "The time flow is not the same?"

"Right now, it should be around one to a hundred. One year on Earth equals a hundred years in the Divine Realm. That means it's been about half a year since you died." Lan Qinghe explained.

Yun Lintian took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. The images of Yang Ningchang, Lynn, and Lei Hao appeared in his mind. "They are still alive... That's good."

Unfortunately, Tu Feng and Xiao Kai were completely gone. He didn't know if they had been reincarnated like Lin Xinyao.

"Now you have even more motivation to improve your strength." Lan Qinghe said.

"Since I didn't go through reincarnation. What about Yaoyao? How did she become an entirely new person?" Yun Lintian asked in doubt.

"First, you must know that even a True God cannot revive someone. The revival I am referring to is the act of bringing a completely dead person back to life. To my knowledge, no one can do it. Not even the Chaos Goddess herself." Lan Qinghe answered.

"However, it is a different thing when it comes to transferring someone's soul to another vessel. The person who watches you grow up from a baby to your last day on Earth has seen how much you love Xia Yao. The moment she died, this person had secretly preserved her soul and waited for a suitable vessel."

Yun Lintian immediately understood. He quickly asked. "What about Tu Feng and Xiao Kai?"

"I have no idea. The reason I know about Xia Yao is because that person asked me to do it." Lan Qinghe shook her head. "Coincidentally, I found a suitable woman to conceive a vessel and sent her to the Azure World."

"You mean... Yue Xiurong?" Yun Lintian responded.

"Otherwise, how could a lofty Moon Princess fall for such an ordinary man?" Lan Qinghe said, taking a sip of tea.

Yun Lintian furrowed his brows slightly. It turned out that Lan Qinghe manipulated Yue Xiurong into falling in love with Lin Zixun and giving birth to Lin Xinyao. Although he felt uncomfortable, he couldn't deny that she had done him a favor.

Lan Qinghe could see Yun Lintian's dissatisfaction at a glance, but she had no intention of explaining anything.

"Thank you." Yun Lintian said sincerely.

"I wouldn't bother with it if it weren't for that person." Lan Qinghe said casually.

Yun Lintian went silent for a moment and asked. "Do you know the location of the Black Turtle God's blood origin?"

"It's here." Lan Qinghe pointed to a lotus pond next to the pavilion.

When Yun Lintian turned to look at the pond, a massive black turtle gradually emerged from the water's surface. The turtle's shell was broken, and ancient runes were engraved all over it. Its long tail was, in fact, a snake, but it seemed to have lost its life a long time ago.

"Did he...?" Yun Lintian couldn't help but ask. The gruesome wounds on the turtle's shell indicated that the Black Turtle had little chance of survival.

"He is already dead. I used my power to sustain his remnant soul and preserve his physical form." Lan Qinghe said softly.

"Among the mythological beasts, the Black Turtle has the longest lifespan, and its vitality is endless, making it nearly immortal. Unfortunately, he spent all of his energy protecting others. Otherwise, he wouldn't have reached this point."

Yun Lintian stared at the Black Turtle with a hint of admiration. He seemed to witness the heroic sight of Senior Gui Shen shielding everyone with his body.

Buzz—

Suddenly, a dark green light flashed, and a handsome middle-aged man dressed in a black robe appeared in the air above the turtle.

He first looked at Lan Qinghe and cupped his fists. "Many thanks, Immortal Master."

"This is what I should do. After all, I have a good relationship with your ancestors." Lan Qinghe said gently.

Yun Lintian was inwardly shocked. Wouldn't this mean that there were other Black Turtle Gods out there?

"You are overthinking." Lan Qinghe saw through his thoughts. "His ancestor I mentioned is the first generation of the Black Turtle. Unlike the Azure Dragon, the Black Turtle always has one descendant in each generation."

She looked at the man in black and continued speaking. "He is the fifth generation."

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. He stood up and bowed his head slightly. "Junior Yun Lintian greets Senior Gui."

The man in black, Gui Shen, looked at Yun Lintian and spoke calmly. "I have been waiting for this moment. I can see that you are more talented than Yun Tian. It is worth waiting for."

He paused momentarily and then continued speaking. "It seems you have met all of them before coming here. The fact that they have entrusted their futures to you proves everything. There is no need for me to test you."

Gui Shen opened his palm, and a droplet of dark greenish blood appeared in the air. "Focus your mind."

As his voice fell, the droplet of blood immediately flew towards Yun Lintian and drilled into his forehead.

Yun Lintian was caught off guard and hastily closed his eyes, bracing himself for the unfamiliar force.

Immediately, a massive surge of power flooded Yun Lintian's body, resembling a tsunami, and spread to every corner of his being. Compared to the Golden Crow God's blood origin, the power of the Black Turtle God's blood origin was milder but incredibly solid.

Yun Lintian's entire body immediately turned into a dark green color, and countless ancient runes, similar to the ones on the Black Turtle's shell, appeared on his skin.

Yun Lintian didn't notice the change in his appearance. He concentrated on refining the blood origin and completely immersed himself in his subconscious world.

Gui Shen stared at Yun Lintian for a moment and said. "It's a miracle. His body can contain anything and make them coexist peacefully. It's no wonder Yun Tian said that his successor would break all the limits."

Lan Qinghe calmly sipped her tea without making any comments.

Gui Shen shifted his gaze onto Master Bai and said. "I have to trouble Immortal Master to wake him up."

Lan Qinghe glanced at Master Bai, and the latter slowly opened his eyes.

Master Bai was puzzled and soon noticed Gui Shen. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes as he spoke. "You actually..."
