Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 479 - The Moon

Hongyue stared at Yun Lintian for a moment and said. "Sure."

Following that, she waved her hand, and the people behind Yun Lintian immediately reduced into nothingness. This scene made Yun Lintian's heart tremble slightly. 

All of a sudden, the palace around Yun Lintian disappeared, and he found himself standing in an endless snowfield. Soon, he was attracted by an intense purple light that was shining from above. It caused him to raise his head toward that direction and saw a brightly lit purple moon hang in the sky.

Yun Lintian could feel a strong aura exuding from it. This moon gave him a similar feeling as The Thunder and The Sun he had encountered. It was like the connection between him and the moon had been established out of nowhere.

At this moment, Hongyue's figure appeared in the sky before the bright purple moon. Compared to her previous mischievous appearance, the current her was filling with a solemn and aloof aura. It made her look like an unreachable fairy.

Hongyue stared at Yun Lintian and said calmly. "This is The Moon that belongs to you, the Beyond Heaven King's successor. I've been guarding this place for thousands of years, and today will be my last day." 

Somehow, Yun Lintian could perceive a trace of loneliness and melancholy in her voice.

Hongyue gently waved her hand and said. "I'll hand it to you now."

Instantaneously, the bright purple moon shrank its size and turned into a palm-size purple ball floating on Hongyue's palm. With another wave of her hand, the purple ball immediately shot toward Yun Lintian at full speed and sunk into his chest completely.

Even though Yun Lintian was preparing beforehand, he was still shocked by this operation. However, he didn't have time to care about it anymore as he felt tremendous power begin to surge in his body.

"Close your eyes and circulate your Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture." Hongyue's voice drifted into Yun Lintian's mind, making him hurriedly sit down and start circulating the energy.

When he first absorbed The Sun, Yun Lintian felt as though he was drowning in magma, and The Moon was entirely opposite it. Currently, Yun Lintian's entire body was shrouded with bone-chilling cold. He could feel his organs, limbs, and muscles start to freeze. If it continued like this, he would end up losing his life for sure.

Yun Lintian gritted his teeth and focused his mind on the practice. Profound energy in his body madly circulated, frantically absorbing the freezing energy that tried to devour him.

Layers upon layers of frost slowly covered Yun Lintian's body, turning him into an ice statue.

Hongyue descended to the ground, standing before Yun Lintian, and looked at him solemnly. If Yun Lintian could not handle it, she would take action immediately.

What the hell is this? It's too strong, right? Yun Lintian felt as though he was walking between life and death at the moment. The freezing energy from The Moon was too powerful, beyond his body could handle. No matter how he tried to absorb it, it didn't seem to decrease in the slightest. On the contrary, it had become more vigorous.

At this moment, Yun Lintian's limbs had been covered entirely with crystal clear ice. With a small poke, it would definitely shatter into pieces. It could be said Yun Lintian was in a half-dead state now.

Yun Lintian knew he couldn't go on like this. Immediately, he summoned the Beyond Heaven King's Crown as well as The Thunder and The Sun.

The gorgeous crown immediately appeared on Yun Lintian's head with two jewels brightly lit up. One was red in color, another one was purple. Without a doubt, they were representing The Sun and The Thunder.

In that instant, a fiery red aura and lightning sparks burst out of his body and slowly covered him. The freezing cold from The Moon gradually weakens to the level that Yun Lintian could endure it. 

Yun Lintian's limbs and organs that were frozen earlier had also slowly returned to their original state. His grimaced expression gradually loosened. He could now absorb the energy at ease.

A trace of surprise appeared on Hongyue's face when she saw this scene. Her eyes were fixated on the majestic crown on Yun Lintian's head while murmuring. "I didn't expect you to recognize him this fast. No wonder he could integrate with The Thunder and The Sun to this extent… Haha. Fate is really amazing."

As the pain was gone, Yun Lintian was brought into an enlightening state. He completely forgot everything around him and his body automatically circulated according to the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture.

His strength gradually broke through the next realm — from the peak of the Origin Profound Realm to the first level of the Earth Profound Realm and continued to rise.

At this moment, in Yun Lintian's mind. A scene where a ten-year-old girl in a red dress sitting lonely while looking at the bright moon in the sky appeared in it. 

When Yun Lintian looked at the girl closely, astonishment immediately appeared on his face. This young girl was not much different from Hongyue… Is it her?

"You come here alone again, Hongyue." While the girl in red was looking at the moon, a girl in a blue dress appeared behind her. She had an appearance ninety percent that resembled Hongyue. Undoubtedly, there were twins.

Hongyue retracted her gaze and turned to look at the girl in a blue dress. A sad smile appeared on her face as she said. "I just want to be alone for a while… Why are you here, Lanyue?"

The girl in blue, Lanyue, sat down beside Hongyue and raised her head to look at the moon. "I'm here to accompany you."

Hongyue didn't show any expression, but Yun Lintian could see she was trying to hide her sorrow and pretended to cheer up. "When everything ends. I hope you can bury me here."

Lanyue went silent. It wasn't her intention, but she didn't know what to say at this moment.

"Bury? Is she going to die soon? What's going on here?" Yun Lintian looked at the scene in confusion.
