Myth Beyond Heaven

1867 Doubts

"Then, could we go there?" Jin Huian asked.

Lin Yitong glanced at Yun Lintian and shook his head. "It's too risky for us to go. He is an exception."

Jin Huian felt disappointed. She had been working diligently to strengthen her spiritual power, hoping to go to the Netherworld. Unfortunately, she was unable to go there in the end.

"I will do my best to find him." Yun Lintian could sense Jin Huian's disappointment.

"Thank you." Jin Huian said softly.

"You must be careful. The five emperors you mentioned are likely to be true gods. With your current strength, you are nothing but a speck of dust in front of them." Lin Yitong reminded Yun Lintian.

"However, in my opinion, their power should be restricted in some way, preventing them from using it to its full extent."

"Why is that, Senior?" Yun Lintian was curious.

"I am a true god myself. I understand my power well." Lin Yitong explained. "What is the point of letting their subordinates fight each other? For resources they don't need?"

Yun Lintian was taken aback. He hadn't considered this aspect.

The five emperors were already at the peak of the Netherworld. There should be nothing for them to fight over. The battle between the five regions meant nothing to them. Why did they keep fighting?

"There must be something they cannot ignore no matter what. For example, an artifact that enables them to leave the Netherworld." Lin Yitong continued speaking.

"But since they could take action themselves, why would they let their subordinates do it? This is why I believe they are restricted."

Yun Lintian immediately understood everything. As true gods, these five emperors could take whatever they wanted without relying on their subordinates. The only reason they didn't do it was simply because they couldn't.

Perhaps if they made a move, the Netherworld would collapse. Or maybe there was another limitation preventing them from exerting their full strength.

"In any case, you cannot be careless." Lin Yitong warned him once more.

Yun Lintian nodded solemnly. "Understood."

He took out the bag of wheat kernels that Xu Mei had given him and said. "This is the wheat I obtained from the Netherworld."

Lin Yitong gazed at the wheat kernels and spoke gently. "It's strange that the Netherworld has them."

"Indeed." Yun Lintian agreed. "Someone should have brought them to the Netherworld in the distant past."

Due to the Netherworld's harsh environment, cultivating anything was nearly impossible. Yun Lintian could see that the genetics of the wheat were ancient. It should have been there for millions of years. Evidently, someone brought them over and enabled them to thrive in the harsh environment.

Who was that person? Yun Lintian could only think of the Beyond Heaven King. He was likely the only one who could visit the Netherworld after the Primordial War.

"What about the Tower of Fate?" Lin Yitong asked.

Yun Lintian shook his head. "No clue. I cannot feel any connection to it."

Lin Yitong didn't say anything further.

At this moment, Zhang Yu approached and asked. "How long are you planning to stay here?"

"A day at most." Yun Lintian replied as he glanced at Gui Xuan, who was happily swimming in the Misty Lake.

"A day?" Zhang Yu frowned in dissatisfaction.

Yun Lintian spread his arms, indicating he wouldn't change his mind.

Zhang Yu snorted coldly and walked away.

"Thanks to Gui Xuan. Without him, I wouldn't have noticed that scary ghost." Yun Lintian felt uneasy when he thought about the frightening ghost he had seen before.

"You are actually scared of a ghost?" Jin Huian couldn't resist teasing him a little when she noticed Yun Lintian's uncomfortable expression.

Yun Lintian smiled wryly. "Although I have witnessed numerous gruesome scenes in the past, this one is entirely different."

"Go. Get some rest." Lin Yitong said softly.

Yun Lintian nodded and walked toward the villa.

After Yun Lintian left, Jin Huian looked at Lin Yitong and asked. "What are your thoughts on this?"

"I suspect that the reappearance of the Netherworld is a man-

made occurrence." Lin Yitong replied truthfully.

"Who could possibly do it?" Jin Huian was puzzled. Aside from the Primordial Gods, she couldn't think of anyone else capable enough.

"The appearance of the inheritors of the Primordial Gods, and the reemergence of the Netherworld. Everything came out at the same time. It is not a coincidence." Despite her extensive knowledge, Lin Yitong still couldn't uncover the truth behind this.

She looked at Jin Huian and asked. "Senior, have you ever been curious about your existence?"

"All the time." Jin Huian replied truthfully. "Before this, I always believed I was a descendant of the Primordial Golden Crow God. But when I learned that you are a true god, it made me realize something."

"In the past, Senior Long once told me we were trapped in the Divine Realm not because of the laws here. I didn't understand it at that time. But now, I think I know something."

She gazed deeply at Lin Yitong and asked. "I am not a descendant, but rather the will of the Primordial Golden Crow."

"Yes." Lin Yitong replied truthfully. "There is a place known as the Inferno Burial Ground of the Golden Crow God on the western side of the Primal Chaos. It is the ancestral land of the Senior Golden Crow God."

"When I first met you and the other seniors years ago, I immediately sensed something. All of you were intentionally placed inside the Divine Realm. As for what purpose? I have no idea. Perhaps it's to preserve your legacies."

Jin Huian fell silent. Since she could remember, she had already found herself within the Divine Realm. Before this, she had no information about the world beyond the Divine Realm, including the existence of a true god.

Not only she but also the Divine Phoenix God, the White Tiger God, the Black Turtle God, and the Vermilion Bird God. Everyone seemed to exist solely to pass down their legacies and then disappear.

The only one who seemed to know everything was the Primordial Azure Dragon God. However, he had never clearly explained it to anyone.

"Yun Tian should know the truth." Lin Yitong said gently. "Unfortunately, I didn't dare to intervene in his plan."

Jin Huian raised her head slightly and asked. "Can you take me to visit my ancestral land?"

"Of course. But we have to wait for Yun Lintian to come back first." Lin Yitong replied.
