Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2449: Northern Region (1)



"Argh!!" Ye Fuxie screamed, his voice drowned out by the dragon's roar. His shadow tendrils withered and dissipated, his darkness consumed by the overwhelming power of the

Primordial Sun God.

The fire dragon dissipated, leaving behind a scorched figure, its body smoking, its aura extinguished. Ye Fuxie collapsed to the ground, his consciousness fading, his pride shattered, his defeat absolute.

Yun Lintian glanced at the fallen figure. As a True God, Ye Fuxie wouldn't die easily from this, but it wouldn't be easy for him to recover either.

He turned to look at Wan Jingrou and asked, "Do you want to come as well?"

Wan Jingrou stared at Yun Lintian for a moment and said, "The power you released earlier was at least at the Primordial God level... Who are you exactly?"

She had never seen a God Ascension Realm cultivator unleash the power of a Primordial God. This was beyond her comprehension and shattered everything she knew.

Yun Lintian ignored her and turned, walking away.

"Wait!" Wan Jingrou called out and quickly arrived by his side. Her eyes shone brightly. "Can I go with you? Don't worry, I won't disturb you."

Yun Lintian glanced at her briefly and continued walking. Wan Jingrou was a former disciple of Lan Bingxue. Perhaps she knew a thing or two about the Ice Phoenix. He wouldn't mind having her follow him.

Wan Jingrou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She turned to look at Ye Fuxie, who was struggling to get up from the ground, and said, "Serves you right."

She then turned and quickly chased after Yun Lintian.

Ye Fuxie watched the two disappear into the snowstorm with anger. He had never been humiliated like this before. It was unacceptable. Unfortunately, Yun Lintian's strength was beyond his comprehension. It would be stupid to seek revenge.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Fuxie transformed into black light and disappeared.

"What is the Abyssal Rift?" Yun Lintian suddenly asked as he walked toward the northern region.

Wan Jingrou was surprised by his sudden question. She quickly replied, "The Abyssal Rift is an isolated realm similar to this place. However, it is filled with treasures and dangers. Every hundred years, all the qualified disciples from the six kingdoms gather there to explore it." She paused for a moment and continued, "As for its origin, we have to trace back to the earliest era when the Creator began to create the world. It was said that the Chasm of Uncreation created the Abyssal Rift to counter the Primal Chaos of the Creator."

Yun Lintian's eyes flickered with surprise. He glanced at her and asked, "I'm curious. Why wouldn't all of you attack the Primal Chaos?"

Wan Jingrou took a deep look at Yun Lintian. Now, she was certain that he was not a member of the six kingdoms and the haven. He was possibly a native of the Primal Chaos.

"We are prohibited from doing so. The Lord of Chaos doesn't allow us to go near the Primal Chaos," she responded. "Naturally, there were many stubborn people, but none of them could even get close to the Primal Chaos Wall. They couldn't withstand its power and died halfway through."

"But," she continued, "the Shadow Demons and the Void Creatures are different. They can limitlessly reproduce, and their defense seems to be specifically designed for the Primal Chaos Wall. They can get close to the wall."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. His curiosity about the Lord of Chaos grew. He couldn't determine whether this person was an ally or foe.

Wan Jingrou hesitated briefly and said, "I can't fathom how an outsider like you came to this place. Do you truly believe the rumor about the Ice Phoenix?"

Yun Lintian glanced at her and asked, "What about you?"

"Of course, I believe it," Wan Jingrou replied readily. "But I am destined to miss her. I am not qualified enough."

"It was an accident," Yun Lintian said indifferently and fell silent.

Wan Jingrou didn't say anything further and silently followed him. It was at this moment that she noticed Gui Xiao and Hei Shou. However, she couldn't see anything special about them.

Having learned his lesson, Yun Lintian used the Law of Order to conceal Hei Shou and Gui Xiao's auras, preventing anyone from seeing through their identities. It was normal that Wan Jingrou couldn't see them.

Two weeks passed. Yun Lintian and Wan Jingrou continued their way toward the northern region.

During this period, Yun Lintian learned a lot from her. For example, there were many other hideous criminals who came here to avoid punishment. The God Beasts in this place were, in fact, brought here by the Ice Phoenix Empress to guard the criminals.

There was also a guardian beast at the entrance to Phoenix Lake. It was a genuine True God Beast. Wan Jingrou warned Yun Lintian to stay away from it, as it wouldn't attack him as long as he didn't approach Phoenix Lake.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

As they finally reached the boundary marking the entrance to the northern region, the already harsh environment took a dramatic turn. The snowstorm intensified, the wind howling like a banshee, whipping the snow into a frenzy that obscured all vision.

The temperature plummeted to an unbearable degree, the air growing thick with a chilling aura that seemed to claw at their very souls.

Yun Lintian shivered, despite his thick furs and robust cultivation. He could feel the cold seeping into his bones, slowing his movements, numbing his senses. He activated his divine energy, forming a protective barrier around himself, warding off the biting cold.

Beside him, Wan Jingrou fared worse. Her face was pale, her lips turning blue, her body trembling uncontrollably. She was a powerful cultivator, a True God Realm expert, but even she struggled to withstand the extreme conditions of this forbidden zone.

"This is..." Wan Jingrou stammered, her teeth chattering. "It has become more insane. What happened here?"

Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly. He could sense the chaotic energy here was denser, more potent, infused with a chilling essence that seemed to defy the laws of nature.

He looked around, his Eyes of Heaven piercing through the blizzard. The landscape was a desolate expanse of ice and snow, the ground covered in a thick layer of frost that crunched beneath their feet. The air was heavy, the silence broken only by the howling wind and the occasional cracking of ice.

"You can go back. I don't think you can survive here," Yun Lintian said.

Wan Jingrou hesitated and said, "I'll find shelter nearby."

Yun Lintian took a deep breath and stepped into the northern region, disappearing into the snowstorm under Wan Jingrou's gaze.
