Chapter 1780 The Crown (10)

Yun Lintian didn't know whether it was a curse of the Yun surname. Both Yun Tian and he had tragic love stories.

Time passed, and the flames gradually subsided. What Yun Lintian saw in front of him was a ruined structure. The majestic palace had become a thing of the past.

Suddenly, the scenery around Yun Lintian changed rapidly. Everything was fast-forwarding like those time-lapse videos.

Yun Lintian saw a group of people appear, and the Yun Dynasty was wholly annexed by the Liang and Chu Kingdoms.

A moment later, the Chu and Liang Kingdoms engaged in a battle to gain a better benefit. Ultimately, a third party appeared and seized the opportunity to defeat the two countries.

The former Yun Dynasty had now wholly changed hands. Yun Lintian saw a prosperous city around him, and people seemed to be living in peace.

In a short while, the new country experienced a severe drought. The prosperous city soon fell into a devastating state. People were starving to death, and countless refugees could be seen gnawing on tree bark in order to survive.

A new city soon emerged, and people began to thrive once more. However, they soon encountered another disaster and were again reduced to ruins.

Yun Lintian had no idea how many times he had witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations. It taught him a lesson that everything has its ups and downs. No matter who you are, you will eventually fall from your altar one day.

Nothing remains forever...

The world around Yun Lintian changed rapidly to the point where he couldn't keep up anymore. He estimated it should have been at least a hundred thousand years by now.

Suddenly, the scenery became still. What appeared in front of Yun Lintian was an ancient ruin deep within the forest.

Yun Lintian looked around and didn't see much except for some dilapidated buildings. He also had no idea whether it was the same location as the Yun Dynasty's palace.

"It's really here, Senior Brother Yun!"

At that moment, a young female voice resounded behind, capturing Yun Lintian's attention.

When he turned around, a young girl who appeared to be fifteen years old quickly emerged from the shade of the trees. There was also a young man following her.

Yun Lintian was stunned because the young man's appearance was identical to Yun Tian, whom he had seen previously.

However, what attracted Yun Lintian the most was their temperaments. Without a doubt, they were practitioners!

Yun Lintian couldn't understand how the world had transformed into a cultivation world.

"I didn't expect it to be true." The young girl spoke as she gazed at the ruins before her.

The young man, Yun Tian, was also surprised. "So, the record you found didn't lie to us. This place must be the site of an ancient dynasty."

He looked at the young girl and asked. "You are the one who discovered it. You can decide whether to tell our master, Junior Sister Cai."

The young girl snorted in dissatisfaction. "What are you talking about, Senior Brother Yun? I, Cai Xieren, am not a person who seeks recognition. Since we discovered it together, we should share the credit equally."

"Cai Xieren?" Yun Lintian was stunned. Undoubtedly, she must be the Rainbow God Emperor, Cai Xieren.

Yun Tian wanted to say something, but Cai Xieren stopped him. "Don't say it again. Otherwise, I will be angry."

"Alright." Yun Tian sighed helplessly.

Cai Xieren smiled with satisfaction. She carefully scanned her surroundings with her spiritual sense, and her expression changed slightly.

She pointed at Yun Lintian and spoke. "There seems to be something over there."

Yun Lintian was taken aback... Did she see me?

Cai Xieren quickly approached Yun Lintian. Before he knew it, Cai Xieren had already walked past him.

Yun Lintian was a bit disappointed. It turned out she didn't see him.

He turned around to look at Cai Xieren, and his expression changed slightly. Because the position she was standing in right now was precisely where the throne was located.

Yun Tian walked over and crouched down, examining the ground. "Indeed. There must be something here."

Cai Xieren was excited. "Let's dig it out."

Yun Tian had no objections. The two of them quickly utilized their profound energy to excavate the ground.

A moment later, their expressions changed as if they had discovered something extraordinary.

Yun Tian used his hand to dig into the ground and carefully pulled out an object covered in dirt. It seemed to be an ornament resembling a crown.

Yun Lintian was surprised. Certainly, it was the Beyond Heaven King's Crown that Prince Yun Tian wore at the time of his death.

"A crown?" Cai Xieren attentively looked at the object in Yun Tian's hands.

Yun Tian didn't say anything. At this moment, two streams of tears had already drenched his cheeks.

"What's wrong, Senior Brother Yun? Why are you crying?" Cai Xieren was shocked.

Yun Tian shook his head and said with a frown. "I don't know. I felt very sad for no reason."

"Throw it away quickly." Cai Xieren hurriedly said. She believed that there was something wrong with the crown.

Yun Tian said softly. "It's fine... Can I keep it? I feel like I have a connection with it."

Cai Xieren frowned deeply. "I think we should let our master look at it first. Perhaps it is a cursed artifact."

"Yes." Yun Tian had no objections.

The two of them then spread out and searched for other items. However, they couldn't find much except for some scraps that belonged to an unknown civilization.

Yun Lintian looked at the scene in confusion. Logically, the crown should have turned into nothingness by now. How could it remain unchanged after countless years?

Unfortunately, Yun Lintian forgot to trace the crown's origin during the era of Prince Yun Tian. Otherwise, it would be much better if he knew how it was forged.

Yun Tian and Cai Xieren tidied everything up and sealed the ruins, preparing to leave.

Yun Lintian naturally followed them out.

A few days later, they arrived at a towering mountain. Yun Lintian followed Yun Tian and Cai Xieren into the hills and soon came across a small gate with a sign that read "Cloud Mountain Sect" hanging on it.

Yun Tian and Cai Xieren quickly entered the sect and made their way to a small hut nestled in a bamboo forest.

"Master, we are back."
