Myth Beyond Heaven

BOOM!

A group of black creatures were obliterated by Xiao Shou's attack.

Xiao Shou withdrew his hand and gazed at Yun Lintian and Gui Xuan with a peculiar expression.

After following the directions Gui Xuan pointed out, they kept encountering low-level infernal demons. Not a single one of them had surpassed the tenth level that Yun Lintian had encountered at the start.

This was the first time Xiao Shou had seen someone with such a unique ability. With Gui Xuan's guidance, anyone could easily pass the Path of Hell.

Yun Lintian also benefited from having Xiao Shou by his side. He didn't even lift a finger to help out. Xiao Shou took care of everything. It was strange to think that a dignified ghost king acted as a bodyguard for him.

After spending some time with Xiao Shou, Yun Lintian realized that Xiao Shou did not exude the demeanor of a high-level powerhouse at all. He was like a refined young master raised by well-educated parents.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Yun Lintian caught a glimpse of a towering silhouette looming behind the scattered fog. His expression changed dramatically when he realized the figure's shape was identical to the Tower of Fate!

Xiao Shou also noticed this and said. "It appears again... No one knows what it is. We would see it from time to time."

Yun Lintian calmed down and asked. "Can we see it from anywhere?"

"Yes." Xiao Shou responded. "Sometimes, you can catch a glimpse of it from the entrance, but it's very rare."

Yun Lintian immediately understood how those people were able to see the tower's silhouette, even though they couldn't venture deep into the bridge.

"Oh?" At this moment, Xiao Shou noticed something. "We are almost reaching the end of the path. Let's go."

Yun Lintian was surprised and quickly followed Xiao Shou.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the edge of the sea of flames. It was the boundary of the Path of Hell.

Without hesitation, they swiftly stepped forward, leaving the sea of flames.

Yun Lintian turned around to look at the Path of Hell and discovered that the sea of flames swiftly retreated before disappearing from his sight.

"So, we are the last group." Xiao Shou said with a hint of surprise. "It seems like everyone is lucky this time."

As Yun Lintian was about to ask something, the surrounding fog abruptly churned and gathered around him.

"Relax and focus on your body." Xiao Shou said gently.

Yun Lintian immediately understood that it was the so-called cleansing process.

He let his guard down and carefully observed the fog.

Through the Eyes of Heaven, he saw a shimmering thread of life's aura slowly emerging from the fog. The beam broke through the sea of deathly aura and struck the bodies of Yun Lintian and Gui Xuan.

The two of them instantly felt as if they were stepping into a warm bathtub. Their entire bodies relaxed.

Gui Xuan closed his eyes and savored the comfortable sensations.

Meanwhile, Yun Lintian focused on the thread of the life aura inside his body. He couldn't find the source of the aura of life. Was it the power of the bridge?

At this moment, Yun Lintian felt a surge of energy spreading throughout every part of his spiritual body. His strength began to grow, gradually approaching the threshold of the Middle God Realm.

The process lasted for a full ten minutes before the aura of life disappeared.

Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to help Yun Lintian advance to the next level.

However, Yun Lintian didn't mind it. It was his spiritual form, after all. Once he returned to his body, he would still be the Divine Sovereign. As for the benefit of having no bottleneck, it was completely useless for him because he didn't have that problem in the first place.

On the contrary, Gui Xuan's strength increased significantly. He had already reached the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm.

However, he didn't seem to grow up at all. His appearance remained unchanged.

"Strange." Xiao Shou looked at Yun Lintian with doubt. "When I went through this process, I was able to directly ascend from the Middle God Realm to the peak of the High God Realm. But you didn't improve that much. Did the bridge's power weaken?"

Yun Lintian innocently shrugged his shoulders, indicating he had no idea.

Xiao Shou stared at Yun Lintian for a while, then shook his head. He couldn't find an answer.

Yun Lintian looked at Gui Xuan and asked. "Where should we go?"

Gui Xuan turned his head to look at the path ahead and pointed eastward.

"Alright." Yun Lintian didn't even doubt Gui Xuan this time. He simply followed it.

Xiao Shou had no doubt as well and followed Yun Lintian closely.

They continued forward for a few hours. Yun Lintian noticed that the fog had become thinner as they moved further. Now, his perception range had increased to a radius of five hundred meters around him.

"We are almost there." Xiao Shou suddenly spoke.

Yun Lintian raised his head to look at the path ahead.

In the endless distance, he could vaguely see the outline of two colossal doors, resembling a mountain range that extended to the edges of time.

"These two doors are the Path of Heaven and Human." Xiao Shou explained. "You can only choose one to enter. Behind the doors, you will encounter a variety of trials. I cannot explain it because I can't even pass one."

Yun Lintian was stunned. "What kind of trial was that?"

"Last time, I chose the Path of Human and encountered the laws of destruction. I almost lost my life. Thankfully, I managed to leave on time." Xiao Shou said. There was a hint of fear in his voice.

"The laws of destruction?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly.

"Not only that. I chose the Path of Heaven when I came here for the first time. What I encountered at that time were the Great Laws of Death. If it weren't for the fact that I was familiar with it, I wouldn't have survived until now." Xiao Shou continued.

If a practitioner were to be afflicted with the Great Laws of Death, they would certainly die. Xiao Shou was a dead soul, to begin with. The great laws didn't affect him much, but they could still devour and transform him into a vengeful specter.

Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. He wasn't afraid of any laws. Instead, it was easy for him to grasp it… Did Yun Tian create all of this?
