Chapter 808 Xia Nongyue
Chapter 808 Xia Nongyue
Listen to the beautiful poem, Yun Lintian felt like he was rammed by a huge truck. The loneliness that resonated along her voice made his heart shudder violently. Tears began to flow down his cheeks involuntarily. He didn't know why he felt this way. Perhaps he, too, was a lonely man.
A moment later, a soft sigh could be heard, and the woman turned around, revealing her stunning face. It was as if everything around Yun Lintian had wholly vanished as his mind had gone blank. The only thing that presented was her celestial countenance that was more illusory than a dream.
Her loneliness-filled eyes seemed like a bottomless abyss that could swallow up anything or anyone. Her well-proportioned nose and petal-like lips were perfectly matched. It was as though nothing in this world could be more perfect than this.
The woman possessed an unmatched temperament. Her cold and aloof appearance made anyone feel inferior every time looking at her.
A faint smile appeared on her lips as she looked at Yun Lintian. "You're here."
Yun Lintian slowly regained his sense and opened his mouth. "You are…" He didn't know why he felt his heart was breaking into pieces upon looking at her like this.
"Glad to know you. I am Xia Nongyue. The one that is willing to wait for someone forever." The woman, Xia Nongyue, said gently.
"Xia Nongyue… The Divine Empress…" Yun Lintian muttered to himself. He raised his head to look straight at her and asked. "Are you… still alive?"
The smile on Xia Nongyue's lips seemed to grow deeper. "Is that matter to you?"
Yun Lintian opened his mouth a few times, but no word came out in the end. He didn't even know himself why he suddenly asked this. Obviously, he had no relationship with her. Perhaps it was because he understood thoroughly how lonely a person could be and felt she was the same as him.
Xia Nongyue said further. "What happened to you in the past is not something you should feel regret, but should appreciate instead… One day you will understand that everything in this world happens for a reason."
Her voice was calm and soothing, shaking Yun Lintian's entire soul. Suddenly, he saw silhouettes of Xia Yao, Lin Qianxue, Yang Ningchang, and Lynn around him. His lips quivered as he looked at them blankly.
Xia Nongyue's voice drifted into his ears. "Not everyone in this world has been given a second chance. Cherish everything well."
Yun Lintian snapped out of the trance, and the four silhouettes immediately disappeared. His eyes filled with a trace of loss but were soon replaced by a determination.
He looked at Xia Nongyue and asked. "What should I do now?"
Xia Nongyue stared straight into Yun Lintian's eyes for a long while and said. "It seems you've made your choice… That's good. That pair of eyes is what you should look like."
She paused for a moment and continued. "Since you show up here means that you are aiming at The Storm. After you've obtained it, I suggest that you should stop looking for other Beyond Heaven King Relics first and try to focus on your profound strength. Wait until you reach the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm before looking for the next one."
"Why?" Yun Lintian subconsciously asked. In his opinion, the faster he got, the better. Since these relics could raise his strength by leaps and bounds in a short period. It was much faster than practicing by himself.
"Ask yourself how deep your understanding of your strength is." Xia Nongyue curled her lips. "Shallow. You don't even know how terrifying your strength is if you could grasp a combination of each relic well."
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and felt what she said make sense. In fact, he had never tried to understand his power properly from the beginning to this point. All he knew was to summon the relics directly or use its affinities with elements to aid in practicing other profound arts.
"Do you know why he built The Library?" Xia Nongyue asked.
p
He always believed that Beyond Heaven King was either like to collect profound arts or use them to teach his people.
"It's one of the reasons… What if I said he used them as references?" Xia Nongyue said with a faint smile.
"Using those profound arts as references?…." An idea suddenly flashed through Yun Lintian's mind as he blurted out. "He was trying to create a new profound art?"
Xia Nongyue responded. "Correct. Beyond Heaven King Relics are the origins of elemental sources. Instead of using them to practice the existing arts, wouldn't it be better to create new ones yourself?"
Yun Lintian immediately enlightened. It was no wonder the second layer of the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture's skill, Trinity Elemental Eyes, was all about mixing the elements.
"The Eyes of Heaven allow me to see the energy flow, and the Trinity Elemental Eyes allow me to mix three incompatible elements without contradicting each other. Everything is for creating new profound arts…." Yun Lintian said to himself. It was as if a new path he had never thought of opened before him.
At the same time, Yun Lintian's Soul realm increased drastically as he realized this. It had already broken through to the Saint Profound Realm and went all the way to the peak level. As long as his Body and Essence realms achieved the next breakthrough, there would be no bottleneck for him until he reached the peak of the Saint Profound Realm.
Xia Nongyue smiled in satisfaction. "You're correct. Because he reckoned that your strength would be very weak at this stage, he chose to prevent you from using more than three elements at once. As your strength increases, the number of elements you could handle at the same time would also increase."
She paused for a moment and said further. "Do you know why he was called the Beyond Heaven King?… It's because he could achieve something that even heaven could only wish for." There was a hint of pride in her voice.
Yun Lintian was momentarily stunned upon hearing this. He didn't expect the origin of the title would be this grand.
