Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 624 Natural Formation

Seeing Yun Lintian's doubtful expression, Huoyun Lingling explained. "This is a natural protection of our ancestral land. Senior can think of it as a formation. Senior doesn't have to worry. As long as you follow us closely, you will be fine."

Yun Lintian nodded and said. "Lead the way."

"I've already given you a warning. Don't blame me if you lose your life here." Huoyun Jie said with a grin.

Yun Lintian didn't say anything, merely smiling and waiting for them to move.

Huoyun Jie was dissatisfied, seeing Yun Lintian had no reaction. He snorted coldly and brought the Huoyun sisters to disappear into the mist. His speed was extremely fast, as though he didn't want Yun Lintian to follow.

Seeing this, Yun Lintian frowned slightly and quickly chased after them. Just as he was about to enter the mist, he suddenly perceived a powerful Spiritual Sense sweeping over him, but he simply didn't have time to check the owner's identity and vanished into the mist.

Several meters away from the white mist, the black-robed man stared attentively at the place where Yun Lintian had disappeared for a long while. His attention wasn't on Yun Lintian but on the small tiger on his shoulder. With his perception combined with the information he got previously, he made a bold guess that this tiger could have a divine beast bloodline.

Previously, he didn't report this matter to his master, Zi Jinghu, because he had a selfish motive. After all, who wanted to be under others all the time? As long as he could get the divine beast and extract its Origin Blood, his strength would soar to heaven in one fell swoop.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart by taking a few deep breaths and leaving the scene. He was going to report this to Zi Jinghu and let the latter attack the Fire Cloud Rat Clan as soon as possible so that he could be a fisherman.

In the world of white mist, Yun Lintian looked around for a while and didn't find Huoyun Jie's shadow. He immediately understood Huoyun Jie was deliberately doing this.

"This old man…." Yun Lintian clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction. It was understandable that Huoyun Jie hated humans, but this was a bit too far. His attitude made Yun Lintian consider hard whether he should help them.

"This natural formation is quite impressive. It can actually block my Divine Sense." Hongyue's voice resounded with a trace of amazement in it.

"Really?" Yun Lintian was surprised. "How could such a thing exist in this lower world?"

"Who knows? Maybe it has something to do with that so-called divine artifact." Hongyue responded with a hint of interest.

As the First Princess of the Divine Moon Clan, she had seen countless top treasures before, but this one successfully piqued her attention. She genuinely wanted to see what kind of treasure it was to produce a powerful formation like this.

"I would like to, but first, I have to pass through this. Any idea?" Yun Lintian didn't dare to move rashly.

"No clue. Try to move first and see." Hongyue said casually as if Yun Lintian's life and death didn't matter to her.

Yun Lintian frowned and activated Eyes of Heaven. Instantly, the scene before him changed drastically from the white mist to intense fire energy moving everywhere in patterns.

At the end of his line of sight, Yun Lintian saw Huoyun Jie floating in the air, seemingly looking in his direction. Meanwhile, Huoyun Lingling and Huoyun Yanyan were so angry.

"How could you do this, Uncle Jie? He saved our lives, and you tried to repay debts of gratitude with malice? I didn't know before you're this kind of person." Huoyun Lingling said furiously.

Huoyun Jie turned to look at her with a solemn expression. "You can scold me as much as you want, Little Miss. I have a clear conscience. I'm doing this for your own good." He paused briefly and continued, "Since the day his highness was deceived by that man, I have no longer trusted any human. Think about it. What if he truly has a malicious intention? Although matriarch is powerful, we don't know what tricks this human has in his sleeves."

Huoyun Jie subconsciously grabbed his arm as he spoke this. Yun Lintian's unreasonably high strength had successfully cast a shadow on his heart. He was afraid that Yun Lintian might possibly subdue everyone in the clan. That was why he decided to be a villain.

"You! I'll tell you. If anything happens to him, I will definitely take care of you." Huoyun Lingling was so angry to the point of breaking her gentle character. This was the first time she had said something vicious, especially to her own clansmen.

Huoyun Jie took a deep breath and turned away.

Yun Lintian could hear everything and was rendered speechless. Although he was dissatisfied with Huoyun Jie's actions, he fully understood his thoughts.

Yun Lintian retracted his gaze and focused on the fire energy before him. He watched the energy flow for a while and successfully memorized the patterns. Without thinking further, he took a step forward and avoided the flow of the powerful fire energy.

He repeated the process and continued to move forward at ease.

"Watch out!" Linlin suddenly exclaimed.

As her voice fell, Yun Lintian felt a blazing heat surge from behind. He instinctively summoned a frost shield to cover himself and Linlin and executed Shadow Step simultaneously.

Rumble—

The torrent of fire flashed past Yun Lintian and exploded, sending countless flame sparks in all directions.

Yun Lintian reappeared not far away from the previous spot and saw flame sparks rushing toward him. His eyes swept the place and discovered the fire energy here had gone berserk. The patterns he remembered earlier were now nowhere to be seen.

Crackle—

The frost shield around Yun Lintian's body immediately shattered upon the flame sparks touching it. Yun Lintian had no time to think carefully. He could only constantly shuttle around with Shadow Step and search for a safe path ahead.
