Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 163
Advertisement
Yun Lintian rushed at the gigantic python as though he was courting death. His goal was simple; he wanted to attract the python's attention and use this chance to eliminate Lei Jun's pursuit. If it was possible, he would try to kill Lei Jun.
Faraway behind, Lei Jun followed Yun Lintian unhurriedly. The moment he saw Yun Lintian rushed toward the gigantic python, he immediately understood Yun Lintian's intention. At the same time, he had also realized Yun Lintian had actually discovered him. This made him wondered how many secrets Yun Lintian had.
After figuring everything out, Lei Jun stopped chasing after Yun Lintian and watched the latter with a cold smile. He wanted to see Yun Lintian make a fool.
Yun Lintian sprinted onward with all his strength while turning back to look for Lei Jun from time to time. When his Eyes of Heaven discovered Lei Jun had stopped moving, he chuckled slightly and activated the Shadow Step, disappearing from Lei Jun's line of sight like a ghost.
Lei Jun was taken aback upon seeing this and cursed a few words before using his Spiritual Sense to locate Yun Lintian. The moment his Spiritual Sense spread out, the gigantic python suddenly opened its eyes. This was a pair of terrifying golden eyes that could penetrate anyone's soul.
The python's gaze quickly captured the owner of the Spiritual Sense and let out a hissing sound. Instantaneously, a golden lightning bolt shot out from its eyes, rushing at Lei Jun's position.
"Shit!" Lei Jun cursed and put the conceal artifact away. He hastily made complicated hand seals, and his body was instantly covered with a golden barrier.
Boom!
The lightning bolt collided with Lei Jun's barrier, immediately forcing Lei Jun to retreat several meters. Lei Jun could estimate the python's strength from this attack as it was at least the tenth level Ruler Profound Beast. With Lei Jun's current strength, he could not take the python down unless he went all out.

After weighing the pros and cons for a moment, Lei Jun decisively gave up on pursuing Yun Lintian and chose to retreat. It wouldn't be too late to capture Yun Lintian when he returned to the outside, and he believed no one would dare to stop him.
Surprisingly, the python didn't continue attacking Lei Jun and let him leave before closing its eyes, returning to its previous state.
Two kilometers away from the python, Yun Lintian's figure appeared in a small forest. He looked around vigilantly and heaved a sigh of relief when he found nothing.
The sprint earlier had exhausted eighty percent of his profound energy. Coupled with the mental power he spent on opening the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian needed to find a place to recover his strength as soon as possible.
When he heard an explosion, Yun Lintian was surprised, as he didn't expect the python would attack Lei Jun just like that. However, the second collision did not occur as expected, which meant Lei Jun was either injured or fled away. Yun Lintian was inclined toward the latter more. As a young master of Divine Thunder Palace, there was no way Lei Jun didn't have a life-preserving means.
Yun Lintian quickly set up the alarm formation and found a place to sit down, replenishing his strength. His eyes fixated on the golden dome in the distance and pondered how to enter that place.
During his sprint earlier, Yun Lintian discovered the surrounding profound beasts did not harbor the intent to attack him, which he found it was strange. After carefully thinking, Yun Lintian came to a conclusion. These profound beasts would never attack him as long as he didn't use Spiritual Sense. As an Essence Profound noob without Spiritual Sense, this was simply a blessing in disguise.

"You… are… here." While Yun Lintian was thinking, an ancient voice suddenly echoed in his mind, causing his body to jolt up involuntary.
"This… Who are you?" Yun Lintian recognized this voice was exactly the same as the one he encountered back then.
Yun Lintian waited for two minutes, and there was nothing that responded back to him. A frown immediately appeared on his face, wondering who the person was.
"Come…" Just as Yun Lintian was about to continue replenishing his strength, the ancient voice rang out in his mind again. This time Yun Lintian did not respond but chose to listen calmly.
"Enter…the valley…." The ancient voice continued to ring in Yun Lintian's mind.
Yun Lintian furrowed his brows, looking at the golden dome, and muttered to himself. "I know, but how?"
With the dense lightning wall around the valley, Yun Lintian had no idea how to enter without being burned into ashes. From his estimation, even with the help from the crown, he won't be able to pass through the wall, as it was a hundred times stronger than the lightning bolt from the sky.
Yun Lintian racked his brain for a period but could not come up with a solution. In the end, he shook his head and focused on replenishing his strength. He remembered the mysterious person had planted something in his body. Yun Lintian would try it out later whether it could help him enter the valley area.
"Ugh!" All of a sudden, Yun Lintian was hit by an object, forcing him to open his eyes and found the so-called object was no other than Mumu.
"Why are you here? Where is your master?" Yun Lintian stared at the white rabbit on his laps.
Mumu used its paws to explain something, and Yun Lintian could roughly understand that Lin Xinyao was safe.
Yun Lintian nodded and asked in a half-joking tone. "By the way, why are you so attached to me? Are you falling for my handsomeness?"
Mumu rolled its eyes and pointed its paw at Yun Lintian's forehead.
Yun Lintian frowned slightly… My forehead?… No way, don't tell me it can detect the Gate of Beyond Heaven? He thought.
"What's wrong with my forehead?" Yun Lintian tested.
Mumu tilted its head cutely for a moment before a purple light appeared on its forehead. In the next moment, Yun Lintian suddenly noticed the Gate of Beyond Heaven in his mind seemed to resonate with the purple light. More precisely, it tried to absorb the power within the purple light.

Sara's (not really) Fabulous System Armageddon, Book I: The World Ended at Rush Hour
Planet Earth, Monday, October 7th, 2019. 18:30 * * On a fateful day, during rush hour in eastern North America, Heavens and Hell crumbled and fell from their higher dimension on Earth. It came from "above" but not the same above we regard in our tridimensional Euclidean reasoning. No, it came from "above" as in from a higher dimension. Bits and pieces of those places fell on Earth from all directions, this time in tridimensional Euclidean space. Satellites, the ISS, and space debris all were wiped clean from orbit. Even those that didn't crash with the falling debris were knocked off orbit by the shockwaves. On the ground, power distribution lines were disrupted and most power facilities were left abandoned by their dead staff. Most of these had emergency shutdown routines that engaged in a few days. Some others had a survivor among their staff that followed protocol and activated their SCRAM switches, stopping the power plant. Long-distance communication disappeared the internet along with it. The world was plunged into technological darkness. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand human beings perished immediately in the pulse of magical energy from the torn spatial boundary. Spirits were rent asunder and vanished, their fate neither salvation nor damnation, only oblivion. The criteria used for this culling was latent magic potential. It didn't discriminate against education, gender, age, or ethnic group. But of the around seven million survivors, most would meet their doom moments later. Those on moving vehicles, like the ones driving on highways suddenly had to contend with high-speed uncontrolled cars and trucks driven by corpses. Trapped in their vehicles and helpless, they became part of the long snake of crushed metal. Very few survived. Those in the air or out in the sea were alone and probably unable to control their rides. Airplanes crashed, and ships kept their course or drifted away, depending on their autopilot. Several ended their own lives in utter despair after seeing their loved ones die in front of them. Another large group would die at the hands of other survivors. Violence and aggression became the norm. Only a few sparse pockets of not-so-sane survivors managed to band together and cooperate for the sake of mutual survival. The sole survivor in a five-over-one apartment building in Georgia, a girl became the keystone to humanity's survival. Sara's fabulous System Apocalypse had just started. She has only one remark. It was anything but fabulous. * * Updates every Wednesday and Sunday.
