Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1187 Bizarre Event (1)

"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded heavily. "Young Miss has us monitored Xing Chen's movement for the past few months. Although he was secretive and cautious enough, we managed to find something in the end."

"We have been hiding here for a long time and saw Xing Chen arrive here two weeks ago with the old man Lan Cao."

Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. "How did he know that I would come here?"

The middle-aged man smiled wryly. "Sect Master Yun might not notice this, but everyone who pays attention to you has already figured out your movement patterns. You always move from a mythical realm to another one."

Yun Lintian touched his chin and said. "I see… Since he knows that I am coming here. Why did he bring only Lan Cao with him?"

"We are curious about it as well. With the strength Sect Master Yun displayed recently, we didn't think the two of them could be your opponent." The middle-aged man said with a puzzled expression.

Yun Lintian didn't think that Xing Chen had underestimated him. A cautious person like him wouldn't do anything he wasn't sure of. Obviously, there was something tricky about this.

He put this matter aside and said. "Thank you for telling me this. How's Fourth Sister?… Well, I mean your Young Miss."

The middle-aged man smiled and said. "The business of the Mystic Pavilion has been blooming recently. She's busy holding auctions."

"Alright. Please say hi to her for me." Yun Lintian said with a smile.

"I will." The middle-aged man cupped his fists. "We will stand by here for another week. If there's anything we can help with, please tell us directly."

"Thank you." Yun Lintian didn't refuse.

He looked toward the golden hill where a cave entrance could be seen briefly and said to Nantian Fengyu. "Let's go."

The moment Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu stepped into the golden land, they immediately felt an ancient aura floating everywhere. It was very solemn, causing the hearts of Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu to turn heavy.

"What a terrible atmosphere." Nantian Fengyu said with a rare serious expression. "It's like countless people have been buried in this place."

Yun Lintian closed his eyes and tried to feel the Golden Mountain Relic's position. However, he couldn't find anything in the end.

"What's wrong?" Hongyue's voice resounded in his mind.

"I can't feel the relic's position." Yun Lintian replied with a frown. "Maybe it's because of the restrictions here."

"Yeah. You have to solve them first to feel it." Hongyue said.

Yun Lintian didn't think about it further. He quickly walked toward the cave entrance in the distance.

When the two arrived before the entrance, the ancient aura had become heavy. A terrible smell of blood was lingering all over the place, making Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu feel like they were about the enter an abyss of death.

Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu didn't say anything. They glanced at each other and stepped into the dark passage.

In the distance, the middle-aged man and the others watched this scene with solemn expressions.

"Brother, should we report to Young Miss?" One of the other three asked.

The middle-aged man shook his head. "No need. Since she didn't give us other instructions, she must have expected this already."

He took a deep look at the cave entrance one last time before bringing the others away.

During this month, he had witnessed a lot of bravadoes who wanted to try their luck here, and none of them had ever come out after entering the ruins. Although he was aware of Yun Lintian's strength, he wasn't confident that Yun Lintian could come out later.

Inside the dark passage, Nantian Fengyu raised her finger slightly, and a small fireball appeared in the air, dispelling the surrounding darkness.

Yun Lintian looked at the wall and found it was made of gold, similar to the outside terrain. Except for the aging trace, he didn't see anything in particular.

Seeing this, the two continued to move forward with caution until they arrived at a small open area.

In front of them were a few passages leading to different directions, and each one gave off the same feeling, leaving Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu with no clue on how to choose.

"Which way should we choose?" Nantian Fengyu asked.

Yun Lintian activated the Eyes of Heaven, trying to find a clue, but he failed to find anything in the end. This gave him a headache, as he felt like he had just entered a gigantic maze.

"The left one, Big Brother Yun." Linlin suddenly said. "I can feel my kins' aura over there."

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "Let's go."

Nantian Fengyu naturally had no objection. She quickly followed Yun Lintian to the leftmost passage.

What they didn't know was that the moment they disappeared into the passage, the other passages were suddenly twisted and shuffled their positions randomly before calming down as if nothing had happened…

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Yun Lintian halted his track and looked back with a frown as he felt something moving. However, he didn't see anything through his Eyes of Heaven.

"What is it, junior brother?" Nantian Fengyu controlled the fireball and looked back in puzzlement.

Yun Lintian shook his head. "Nothing. We have to be more cautious."

Nantian Fengyu nodded, and the two resumed their journey.

As the two ventured deeper, the atmosphere gradually became heavier to the point Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu had to circulate their profound energy to soothe themselves.

At the same time, they saw a lot of bloodstains on the wall. Some of them were new, and some were very old. This scene immediately made the two slow their track down and look around with great caution.

"Something is wrong." Yun Lintian raised his hand to stop Nantian Fengyu and thoroughly scanned the place with his Eyes of Heaven.

Even though he didn't see anything wrong here, his intuition told him otherwise. Since there was no trap or formation here, how could these new bloodstains appear here?

Furthermore, the way they splashed onto the wall was obviously coming from the bottom to the top, vertically.

To make the bloodstains like this, the attack must come from the ground. This was why Yun Lintian stopped Nantian Fengyu from walking further.
