Myth Beyond Heaven

Roar—

The deafening dragon roar reverberated throughout not only the entire Fallen Dragon Forest but also the divine city. Immediately, all the citizens fell into a panic. Even the Monarchs were no exception. Their strengths had reached an unprecedented high and stood on the top of the world, yet they could feel their souls shaken by the roar.

On the mountain, the old man, who was leisurely fishing, opened his muddy eyes to look in the Fallen Dragon Forest's direction as he muttered. "It's time, huh?"

Swoosh!

"Principal, I'm afraid there would be a riot soon. Please give me instruction." Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a white robe appeared behind the old man with a trace of urgency in his voice. His name was Lin Taixu, another vice-principal besides Peng Haoye.

The old man, Principal Tian, unhurriedly pulled the fishing rod up and said. "Vice Principal Lin, you should go stabilize the crowd first. Leave the rest to me."

Lin Taixu was skeptical, but he didn't dare to ask further. He accepted the task readily and left.

Meanwhile, Principal Tian raised his head to look at the sky briefly before making complicated hand seals. In the next moment, a streak of golden light shot down from above, heading toward the Fallen Dragon Forest…

***

At this moment, the expressions of Yun Lintian and the rest turned unsightly when they heard the dragon roar. Without a doubt, the so-called Fallen Dragon must have awoken. The chance of them getting out of this place safely had been reduced significantly. Yun Lintian had to make a decision now.

On the other side, the complexions of Abyssal Devourer and Crimson Reaper were filled with excitement. They had patiently waited for this moment for thousands of years.

"Our lord has finally awoken! Hahaha!" Abyssal Devourer had completely forgotten the situation he was in and laughed wildly with great joy.

Meanwhile, Crimson Reaper was calmer, but the ecstasy in her eyes was evident. She glanced at Yun Lintian and said. "Haven't moved yet? Hurry up, do something before my lord comes out. Don't blame this sister for not giving you a warning by then."

"Brother Yun…" Tian Jiuyi's turned grave. He was aware the situation was out of his hand now. No matter what, they had to move out of this place as soon as possible, even if they had to abadon other participants.

Yun Lintian's brows knitted together as he pondered on something. An idea flashed across his mind, and he hurriedly took out an empty jade slip. He then engraved something into it and handed it to Tian Jiuyi. "There are no other ways now. All of you should leave this place first. When you go out, go find Palace Master Han and give this jade slip to her. She will know what to do next."

Tian Jiuyi shook his head and pushed the jade slip away. "This is my duty in the first place. I should be the one who stays here."

"Stop the nonsense! Take this and go. Hurry up!" Yun Lintian stuffed the jade slip in Tian Jiuyi's hand and quickly opened the formation. In a flash, a white portal appeared at the edge of the formation.

Yun Lintian then urged everyone to go in. "Go!" He even used his profound energy to push them.

Yang Chen and others couldn't say anything and reluctantly entered the portal, vanishing from the place.

Seeing them disappeared into the portal, Yun Lintian let out a long breath. The decision he made just now was nothing but a gamble move. He could only hope everything go smoothly as he planned.

"Oh? What is this? Is this an act of a hero? Are you going to sacrifice yourself or something?… Not right. You could have left this place with them. I wonder, what is your next move?" Crimson Reaper was slightly surprised when she saw Tian Jiuyi's group leave this place so easily.

According to her understanding, once the formation was activated, it had to wait for a month before it could be opened again. She didn't expect Yun Lintian could open it at ease. It seemed she had underestimated him once again.

Yun Lintian said nothing and sat down on the ground, calmly replenishing his strength. All he needed to do right now was wait…

"Don't just stand there. Help me break this formation." Abyssal Devourer was annoyed and yelled at Crimson Reaper. He couldn't wait to get out of this place and fight with her.

Crimson Reaper frowned slightly and asked. "Did she tell you something?" The 'she' in her word was referred to the fake Chu Mi.

Abyssal Devourer shook his head. "That idiot never told me anything. All I know is that there is something in the formation."

Crimson Reaper glanced at Yun Lintian and thought it was better to ask him directly. She then gathered energy in her hand and sent it out at the formation's barrier.

Boom!

The barrier shook slightly upon being hit by the Crimson Reaper's attack, but there was no sign of breaking.

Crimson Reaper was surprised by how sturdy the formation was. This time, she exerted more than eighty percent of her full strength in the next attack. A large black swirl abruptly appeared and spread in speed.

Crackle!

The moment the black swirl touched the barrier, it was fiercely spreading like sea waves. In a blink of an eye, several cracks appeared on the barrier.

Under the extremely horrifying black swirl, the barrier that was originally thought to be tough and unbreakable was instantly twisted like a fragile soap bubble. It continued to twist even more violently until it was twisted into an extremely exaggerated shape… Perhaps, in the next breath, it would be completely torn apart.

Yun Lintian abruptly opened his eyes and looked at the outer barrier with grimed expression. Without hesitation, he took out a large portion of the best-grade Profound Stones and stuffed them into the formation node in order to strengthen it.

With a new round of energy injection, the cracks on the barrier speedily healed, and the barrier had returned to its original appearance once again a few seconds later.

"Hmph!" Crimson Reaper snorted coldly as she was so annoyed. She now understood Abyssal Devourer's feelings when facing the seemingly endless formation move from Yun Lintian.

"Let's see if it could handle this." As her voice fell, a crimson and black swirl appeared before the formation. The swirl this time wasn't a swirl caused by Abyssal Energy like the previous one… but it was a wholly twisted space!
