Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1076 Eastern Continent

Along the way toward the Eastern Continent, Yun Lintian met a few of the 'ghost ships' similar to the one he encountered in the Southern Endless Sea region. From the look of it, they undoubtedly originated from the same mastermind.

Yun Lintian investigated it for a long time, but he couldn't trace it back to the mastermind, even with the help of Hongyue. Unless the person showed up, he would never be able to find them.

In the end, Yun Lintian had no choice but to give up and went straight to the Eastern Continent.

The Eastern Continent was much warmer compared to the Central Continent. It was mainly because there were several volcanoes throughout the entire continent, some of which were still active.

Smoke and ashes could be seen from time to time as Yun Lintian's skyship passed. Nevertheless, the life of ordinary mortals here was surprisingly better than any place he had ever seen.

In this environment, most profound beasts were compatible with the fire element. They would be active around the volcanoes, leaving space for ordinary mortals to live peacefully.

"In the past, the Eastern Continent was considered the most peaceful continent out of all. Even our Northern Continent couldn't be compared to it." Han Bingling said while looking at the villages below.

"It was because of this did the Eastern Continent had the most number of populations. It was far exceeded to the Central Continent by miles… Unfortunately, after the previous Blazing Sun Palace Master passed away, this place has gradually been inclined to some extent."

"You mean the one before Yan Yaoting?" Yun Lintian asked.

Han Bingling nodded gently. "The previous Blazing Sun Palace Master, Yan Jingu, was the direct descendant of the Blazing Sun Palace founder, Yan Jue. He always abides by the founder's teachings by treating people equally. Ordinary people were protected by him. No practitioner forces dared to do anything on them."

"However, Yan Yaoting is different. He's the first person from a collateral line to ever reign in the palace master position. His policy and thinking are entirely different from traditional ones. He believes peace will create a weak era and only war can make people stronger."

"Since then, ordinary people started to suffer from bandits and other forces."

She looked at the peaceful villages below and said further. "These villages are probably pledged their loyalty to some powerful forces."

As her voice fell, everyone saw a group of practitioners approaching the villages, and some harsh shouts could be heard. The villagers trembled and reluctantly handed their crops and medicinal herbs to them.

Some of the relatively good-looking children were directly brought away. Cries and begging shouts resounded everywhere. It was an extremely uncomfortable scene to watch.

"Do you want to make a move?" Han Bingling asked.

Yun Lintian looked at the scene for a while and closed his eyes. "We can help them once, but not forever. Even if we eliminated these forces, another force would come in the end. The only way for them to get rid of this fate is to become stronger by themselves."

"Muxue, Muyue. Send these profound arts to them in secret." Yun Lintian said and handed a bunch of heaven-ranked profound arts and several pill bottles to Han Muyue and Han Muxue, who were called back by Han Bingling.

"Understood." The two replied and disappeared from the place.

Soon, the books and pill bottles appeared in front of the villagers, startling them for a moment. And when they took a look at them, shocked exclaims could be heard everywhere. Some of them even knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the mysterious benefactors.

Yun Lintian retracted his gaze and said. "Let's go. We need to arrive at the Boundless Desert today."

Yun Lingwei quickly turned the skyship and rushed all the way south at full speed.

While Yun Lintian's group headed toward the Boundless Desert, Lei Zhenxiang's group encountered a ghost ship on the sea.

They managed to avoid the eyes and ears of the Divine Thunder Palace and boarded a cargo ship heading to the Eastern Continent.

Boom!

A Saint Profound Realm practitioner who acted as a protector of the ship launched a powerful attack on a ghost ship and managed to destroy it thoroughly.

"It's the ghost ship again." Lei Feifei stood on the deck and looked at the scene with a frown.

On the side, Qin Wuji said in doubt. "The ghost ship is a mystery of the Endless Sea that has existed for thousands of years. Strangely, no one has ever unraveled it."

The Saint Profound Realm practitioner landed on the deck and said. "It seems all of you have traveled often."

Lei Feifei glanced at the man and nodded slightly. She was now disguised as a man, and her aura was only at the Heaven Profound Realm.

The man smiled embarrassingly and cupped his fists. "Forgive my rudeness. My name is Kong Ru."

Qin Wuji smiled and said. "Thank you for keeping us safe, Senior Kong. My name is Wu Ji. This is my young master, Fei Lei."

Kong Ru waved his hand. "It's my duty. There's no need to say this."

He paused for a moment and asked. "It seems Brother Wu and Young Master Fei know a lot about the ghost ship. Have you encountered it often?"

Qin Wuji nodded. "Yes. We often traveled around the world in the past."

Kong Ru sighed and said. "I really want to know how it appears. Although it isn't a threat to me, it's truly annoying… Hmm?"

While Kong Ru was speaking, he suddenly perceived a dangerous aura beneath the destroyed ghost ship.

The same went for Lei Feifei and the others.

A vast shadow gradually rose to the water's surface, and with a bang, a colossus whale appeared in everyone's sight. Judging from its aura, it was actually the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm!

Kong Ru went pale directly. This whale was obviously beyond his power… It's over. We are going to die here!

The whale didn't attack the ship immediately but swept its gaze over every living being on the ship before pausing on Lei Zhenxiang.

"I didn't expect to see you here... It's been a while, Palace Master Lei." The whale's words immediately startled everyone…
