Myth Beyond Heaven

Everything in the past gradually resurfaced as Yun Lintian pondered further. The human side didn't seem to know much about the Abyssal Beasts and Poison Valley. Meanwhile, everyone on the Western Continent seemed to be aware of everything. What was going on here?

On the side, Mu Qiuxue was simply clueless. She hadn't come into contact with the past incident. She only knew something terrible had occurred thousands of years ago. It was said that the incident had changed the world's structure.

Yun Lintian couldn't help asking. "Queen Iryena, what's the origin of those Abyssal Beasts?"

Surprisingly, Iryena shook her head. "I don't know. Since I arrived in this world, I had never gone out once. One thing I know is the Dragon of Death's aura doesn't belong to this world."

Yun Lintian was disappointed, but he still asked further. "How did people outside know about the Tree of Life?"

Before Iryena could reply, Nienna spoke first. "It's my fault. I was curious about the outside world back then and mistakenly took a group of people in. Unexpectedly, they were blinded by greed and tried to take everything here away."

Iryena touched her daughter's head gently and added. "We, Heavenly Wood Spirit, are kind in nature. Even those people committed a crime. We can't make up our minds to kill them and let them go in the end."

Yun Lintian nodded his head slowly. "So that's how the rumor started."

Iryena said further. "We had created an illusion formation to deal with those greedy people. However, the Dragon of Death's movement directly destroyed it. We have no choice but to summon a natural formation to protect this place." She paused for a moment and looked at Yun Lintian. "Aside from your group, another group of people is heading to this place."

"It must be Du Huanfeng." A killing intent appeared in Mu Qiuxue's eyes as she spoke.

"How did he come in?" Although Yun Lintian could guess more or less, he still asked for confirmation.

"He used a divine artifact," Iryena replied.

"As expected. That cauldron is not ordinary." Yun Lintian recalled the scene where Du Huanfeng manipulated the Soul Suppressing Cauldron to nullify Huoyun Yurou's attack. It would be great if he could have it.

"Where's he now?" Yun Lintian asked further.

"Don't worry. He won't be able to find a way here for a long time." Iryena replied with a gentle yet confident smile. She asked curiously. "Are they your enemies?"

"Well, he tried to kill me a few times in the past. Sadly, I didn't have a chance to pay back." Yun Lintian responded calmly.

"I can lock them in a place if you want," Iryena said.

Yun Lintian shook his head. "Not now. Please bring me to the Tree of Life first."

Iryena had no objection. However, she gave a deep look at Mu Qiuxue, Guchang, and Fan, as if she wanted to say something.

As a former patriarch of the Crimson Ox Clan, how could Guchang not know the meaning of this? He cleverly said. "Our strength hasn't recovered yet. We will have to trouble Queen Iryena to arrange a place for us."

Iryena smiled and turned to Yavanna. "I'll leave this duty to you."

Yavanna accepted the task readily. "Please reassured, My Queen." She turned to Guchang and said. "Please follow me."

Guchang nodded and pulled the confused Fan away.

Meanwhile, Mu Qiuxue hesitated briefly and followed Yavanna behind.

"Please," Iryena made an inviting gesture.

Yun Lintian simply nodded and followed Iryena out.

Under Iryena's guidance, Yun Lintian walked along a flowery corridor for a while and arrived at an open space with several people standing in a circle around the Tree of Life.

Seeing the Tree of Life up close, Yun Lintian was astonished by its majestic size. This was definitely the biggest tree he had ever seen throughout his two lifetimes.

The ethereal aura he perceived at the far distance was actually a life aura that he had never seen before. As he moved his gaze around, he discovered this place was basically brimming with vitality. Just by living here, Yun Lintian believed his lifespan would gradually increase without doing anything.

"My Queen!" Several female guards solemnly saluted upon seeing Iryena. At the same time, they glanced at Yun Lintian with caution. If Yun Lintian tried to do something, they wouldn't hesitate to bring him down immediately.

Iryena smiled gently and let them lower their guard. "This is my guest."

"Understood!" The guards shouted in unison and took a step back, opening a path for Iryena and Yun Lintian. However, they were still looking at Yun Lintian cautiously.

Yun Lintian took a good look at these guards and was shocked inwardly. From their aura, none of them here was lower than the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm. The highest one was even stronger than Huoyun Yurou. This was the first time he encountered such a powerful lineup.

Iryena didn't seem to notice Yun Lintian's expression. She looked upward at the Tree of Life and brought her hands together. "Oh Lord Tree of Life. This lowly one has brought the Beyond Heaven King's successor here. Please forgive this lowly one for disturbing your rest."

As her voice fell, the Tree of Life suddenly swayed gently and extended its long branch toward Iryena. Iryena and all the guards immediately knelt on one knee and respectfully lowered their heads.

Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly as he looked at the Tree of Life in doubt. It seemed the Tree of Life possessed a spiritual consciousness. This was entirely different from The Sun, The Moon, and The Thunder.

The Tree of Life's branch gently touched Iryena's head and emitted a green light that seemed to fill with vitality, as if it was acknowledged by Iryena's words.

"Thank you, Lord Tree of Life," Iryena said solemnly, and there was a trace of joy within her voice. She seemed to receive something precious from the touch.

In the next moment, the Tree of Life's branch shifted from Iryena's head and extended toward Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian hesitated briefly and reached his hand out to touch it. Instantly, he heard a gentle female voice resounded in his head.

"You've come, My King."
