Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 290 - The Might Of Shadow Step

Abyssal Devourer's expression abruptly changed as he was caught off-guard. The reason why he always maintained the distance between him and Yun Lintian was because of the formation. He didn't expect the effect range of this formation would be this far. One had to know he was floating at least two kilometers away from Yun Lintian in the sky.

Not to mention, the speed of the formation was extremely fast, to the point Abyssal Devourer could not react at all.

Abyssal Devourer calmed down and looked at Yun Lintian with a serious expression. "Look like I still underestimated you." As he said, he could feel his strength gradually decreasing. At this rate, he would end up with the same fate as the fake Chu Mi.

"Who told you to be arrogant?" Yun Lintian shrugged his shoulders. "I wouldn't mind to tell you, this formation could affect the whole Fallen Dragon Forest. You can imagine what fate is awaiting you and your gang."

Abyssal Devourer snorted coldly and didn't hesitate to show his true form.

"This… Abyss Devouring Gargoyle?" Tian Jiuyi's complexion turned grave. He had once seen this kind of beast in the book that his great-grandfather gave him before. Naturally, he knew how strong it was. It was said this Abyss Devouring Gargoyle could devour anything in the world.

"Die!" Abyssal Devourer opened his hideous giant mouth, and a black energy ball quickly gathered within it. In the next moment, an immense black beam immediately shot at Yun Lintian's group.

"Fall back!" Yun Lintian yelled and exerted his strength into his feet, causing them to sink into the ground. At the same time, he thrust his spear at the incoming black beam.

Roar!

Two mighty virtual fire and lightning dragons appeared around the spear, swiftly coiling and rushing out at the black beam, followed by a deafening dragon's cry.

Boom!

The impact immediately swept everyone away into the distance. Even Yun Lintian was no exception. He rolled on the ground a few times before stabilizing himself and stood up from the ground. A line of blood could be seen flowing out of the corner of his mouth.

Before Yun Lintian could take a breather, he suddenly saw a few black dots appear around his body, accompanied by a strong suction force. His heart skipped a beat, and he reacted as fast as he could by releasing Lightning Blaze Dragon to protect him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several loud explosions rang out consecutively along with a strong blast, sending Yun Lintian and others away once again. This time, the impact immediately inflicted severe injuries on them; their ribs were broken, and the worst one, Chu Heng, had all of his four limbs broken.

"Cough! Cough!" Yun Lintian coughed heavily and spat a mouthful of fresh blood. He stood up from the ground, using his spear as a crutch. His face turned grimed as he stared at the black gargoyle in the sky. 

Compared to the last encounter, Abyssal Devourer went all out at the beginning of this time. He didn't dare to underestimate Yun Lintian anymore.

"Heh, I know it. I always feel your body is different from any human I have seen so far. It turns out you are a body practitioner. Tsk, every piece of your body is full of secrets. I couldn't wait to tear you up and take a good look at you." Abyssal Devourer said while looking at Yun Lintian with his eyes shining in greed. Perhaps he could truly breakthrough into the Monarch Profound Realm after devouring Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian wiped bloodstain out of his lips and swept his gaze on Tian Jiuyi and others. When his gaze landed on Chu Heng, his eyes turned cold, and killing intent started boiling.

Yun Lintian turned to Abyssal Devourer. Surprisingly, except for the overflowing killing intent in his eyes, his face was incomparably calm. 

For some reason, Abyssal Devourer felt a chill running down his spine upon meeting Yun Lintian's gaze… How could a seventeen-year-old little boy have such an immense killing intent? How many people had died under his hand?

Yun Lintian took a long, deep breath. Suddenly, the air around him started to revolve, forming into a small whirlwind, accompanied by golden lightning sparks and a scorching heat aura. 

A golden glow shone brightly within his pupils as he stared at Abyssal Devourer. He stabbed White Dragon Spear to the ground nearby, and his entire figure started to blur and blend into the environment.

Before Abyssal Devourer could react, he discovered Yun Lintian had vanished from his sight, and even his Spiritual Sense could not find a trace of him.

Of course, as a Saint Profound Beast, he didn't panic facing Yun Lintian's mysterious move. He conjured a defensive barrier around him beforehand just in case Yun Lintian made a sneak attack while remaining vigilant.

Boom!

Abyssal Devourer heard a loud bang behind him and felt his head was heavily hit by something. His giant body was sent away like a cannonball in shock before he managed to stabilize himself in the air. He quickly used Spiritual Sense to search for Yun Lintian in almost an instant the moment he was hit. However, he couldn't even catch a glimpse of him; he had disappeared again!… What the hell is going on!? And how the heck could he bypass my defense?

Bang!

While Abyssal Devourer was confused, he was hit severely on his waist, and this time, his hip bone was actually broken! It was not only that; he suddenly felt a scorching burn seeped into his body like a raging molten river flushing in.

H-how!? Abyssal Devourer, who was sent away once again, roared inwardly. He couldn't comprehend the situation at all.

On the ground, Tian Jiuyi and the rest were opening their mouths wide. What they saw was different from Abyssal Devourer. They saw Yun Lintian had become a shadowy figure, appearing behind Abyssal Devourer and attacking him before disappearing like a ghost. Everything happened so fast that they couldn't even take a look at Yun Lintian properly.

What kind of movement technique was that!? This question kept echoing in everyone's mind.
